The clay I used to make a cone stand to hold my ^9^10^11 cones must not have been totally dry I only tried it for 2 days.
After firing for about a hour I looked and the cones had fallen over. They are sitting on the kiln shelf. Now decision time
1. Do I shut it down and start all over again
2. Keep going and rely on the pyrometer instead of cones for final temp.
I called someone to talk through it and decided on number 2. I will just track it with the pyrometer...not the best plan, but what I decided. We shall see if it was a mistake.
I am currently at hour 4 and at 1650 and the temp seems to have levled off. I have the damper at 1/2 open and closed the primary air just a little. Next step will be to turm the gas up and I should start the reduction cycle.
Beginners unite!!!!

you do have a kiln god on there, right?
being a beginner is great, my first raku i stacked up a beehive of hardbricks, and pushed a weedburner in there...in a montana snowstorm!...didnt work, almost though, lol, and it was fun
Posted 14 October 2012 - 06:10 PM
You can wedge a bit of the pearlite packing material that comes in the cone box into the clay, or poke holes into them with a needle tool.
I always make my cone packs first before I start to load the kiln. This gives them a chance to dry out.

1. The Red glaze that I was testing came out way wrong in a wonderful way. Not sure how, but once I rechecked the recipe I wrote it down wrong. I started to use Insight which has helped me with some custom formulas. Now to test the red I wanted to test, and now I have found a nice metallic runny brown. Now to name the new glaze.
2. The shino that I was testing was too thick as I suspected, but the nice part was even as thick as it was it still did not crawl.. Good news.
3. Even if the cone pack had not fallen it would have been hard to see through the small peep hole. I will fix that before my next firing.
Well now on to the next one.

Lesson 1-when cone pads blow up -as you learned the pieces fly everywhere and you also now know what that can do to glaze wares.
Lesson 2 is the cones measure time and temperature on your glazes something the pyrometer cannot do-hence this is why we need cones.
As noted make some cone pads and have them dry sitting around for the next fire-I tend to make 10 at a time but as I fire each week I always need dry ones.
If you have to use wet ones go slow first 800 degrees or so.

Why are you here? Because you care as much about building community as we do. You realize design and planning alone can't create community, but like us, you believe it can inspire it. And maybe you agree that no design can be great if it isn't sustainable.
You've come to the right place. Welcome.

By Kristi OHarran Special to The Herald
Taking a drive to Stanwood from Mill Creek became a time to test our renewed relationship. We've been married almost 40 years and are home together around the clock these days.
Loving attitudes need tweaking now and then. Passing time, we play little games with one another, like not wanting to use the last piece of toilet tissue so you aren't the guy putting a new roll on the spinner.
It's amusing to taunt and tease, but sadly we've allowed snippy attitudes to punctuate the routine.
For instance, after buying fuel at Fred Meyer in Lynnwood, Chuck asked me to check the trip odometer so he could calculate our miles per gallon.
With neither of us working, checking gasoline expenses is a way of life. He knew how many gallons he pumped, and I was supposed to announce the miles traveled on the last tank.
"Uh-oh," I said. "I forgot to reset the counter last time."
Such a tiny mistake.
Such a scene.
He snorted that I was brainless.
I fumed that my moron partner could have leaned over from the passenger seat and flipped the switch himself.
He blustered.
I bellowed.
As we drove out of the parking lot, it was obvious Mr. and Mrs. Snarky were overdue for a tuneup in the compassion department.
"We can have stupid conversations like this all day long," I suggested, "But we shouldn't be so harsh with one another."
Chuck agreed.
With plastered fake smiles, we drove to visit my folks, who live at Josephine Sunset Home in Stanwood. After a nice time, Chuck and I stopped for lunch at the Ram Restaurant and Brewery in Tulalip. In the next booth were two men dressed head to toe in camo.
"I wonder if they've already been to Cabela's," I whispered."Probably stocking up on bullets before the clampdown."
Chuck leaned over and reminded me about our 8-year-old granddaughter, Kelbi. When we introduced her to Cabela's after the store opened last year, she halted at the first lifeless Bambi.
"Did that use to be alive?" Kelbi asked, near tears.
"Yes," I cooed to the sensitive child. "It's been killed, stuffed and mounted."
She muttered, "Disturbing."
As we hurried past each glass-eyed critter, she repeated "Disturbing."
No, she didn't want to get a snack there. She wanted to skedaddle outside.
Ha, ha, ha, Chuck and I giggled. Then my mood took a turn. He dipped the last teaspoon out of my ranch dip container and slurped down an onion ring. I had three fries left to eat dry. Normally, I would have become rather ugly at this point. The new pleasant me was further tested when Chuck shared a hobby at the Ram. He adores watching car auction shows. There was such a program on a Ram TV.
We do not watch television in the same room at home.
Chuck implored me to keep cranking my neck around to see primo 1963 Chevys and restored Fords. That annoyed me, but in the spirit of kindness, I nodded my thrill as each hunk of metal hit the auction block.
I lied when I agreed that $143,000 was a bargain for something with four tires.
This new attitude could be draining.
We left the Ram and hit I-5, soon realizing we forgot the doggie bag holding half of Chuck's Grand Reuben. We normally would argue about who left the sandwich, but Chuck did not place the blame on me.
Maybe he grasped the concept of common civility.
Or not.
My worst road trip fear came to pass when my hubby fiddled with his iPod and hooked it up to the dashboard speakers. Off went my beloved KIRO talk radio and on came the morose crooning of a stale country-western warbler.
That really sparked my fuse. Normally, I would have gone for my mate's jugular, but instead, I ever so sweetly mentioned that I prefer Dori Monson to Ronnie Milsap.
"How about Conway Twitty?" Chuck asked.
The mere thought of a Twitty tune nearly exposed my less than sensitive side, but I held my tongue as noise pollution permeated my space for 12 miles home.
"I saw the look in your eye, looking into the night, not seeing what you wanted to see," Twitty sang. "Darling don't say a word, I've already heard, what your body is saying to mine."
Chuck had no idea what my body was saying to him.
It was harsh.

Olympic Gold medalist listens to Metallica, Slayer, Priest before run
Listen to Metallica on iHeartRadio | Listen to Slayer on iHeartRadio | Listen to Judas Priest on iHeartRadio
Metallica is playing a role in the success of the U.S. Olympic team -- in a small, indirect way. Olympic snowboarder Sage Kotsenburg says heavy metal helped him grab a gold medal in Sochi.
Kotsenburg claimed victory in the Olympic debut of slopestyle snowboarding over the weekend, but not before blasting some Metallica, Slayer, and Judas Priest to prepare for the event.
The 20-year-old Park City, Utah resident tells "Today" he started the day by "bumping" the metal vets to get into a nice mindset. Sage adds that he ate some "random healthy stuff" for breakfast and then won a gold medal by completing a jump that he'd never attempted before. He says he was relaxed at the start of his run, telling himself that "whatever happens, happens."

Kenneth Che-Tew Eng: Why I Hate Blacks Article Writer
First there was Kramer's tirade.
Now comes Kenneth Che-Tew Eng telling us "Why I Hate Blacks."
Kenneth Che-Tew Eng was a contributor to the San Francisco-based AsianWeek -- before he was suspended for writing the anti-black piece displayed below.
A self-described "Asian Supremacist," Kenneth Che-Tew Eng also wrote columns for AsianWeek titled "Proof That Whites Inherently Hate Us" and "Why I Hate Asians."
(Both posted below before they pull them.)
And now editors of "The Voice of Asian America" weekly have apologized.
AsianWeek's editor-at-large Ted Fang and editor-in-chief Samson Wong were feeling plenty of heat for running Kenneth Eng's so-inane-it-would-be-laughable-if-Eng-didn't-really-believe-it-immature-essay.
I just feel sorry for all the Kenneth Engs out there being mistaken for the racist essayist.
But I can partially see where Kenneth Che-Tew Eng's anger is coming from.
My Chinese friend was called a "chink" in her Northern California, mostly white, hometown.
And remember Mickey Rooney's portrayal of an Asian landlord in Breakfast at Tiffany's?
When Bruce Lee saw that film, it made him really sad.
Kenneth Che-Tew Eng is young, in his early 20s.
He's got lots of living and maturing to do.
The backlash from his writing will probably help him do it.
But I do agree with Kenneth Che-Tew Eng about Asian men not being cast often enough as leads, especially romantic leads.
"Asian men aren't sexy," said my one Korean coworker, married to a Korean man.
Sounded like some of the same self-hatred blacks ascribe to.
Not until I saw beautiful Tony Leung in The Lover did I realize the dearth of roles like that.
Once again, instead of violence coming to Kenneth Eng, I pray he uses this lesson in losing his writing job as a turning point.
Hate only begets hate.
Time to try love, Mr. Eng.

Why I Hate Asians
by Kenneth Eng
Jan 12, 2007
It seems like an odd title for an article written by an Asian Supremacist, but there are very good reasons why I hate many of my own kind.
The first thing I hate about Asians in America is how so many of them want to suck up to whites. I have had fistfights and verbal altercations with many who discriminated against me and my people.
Sadly, however, the Asians who witness or hear about these battles often hate me for being "hypocritical," and tell me that "two wrongs don't make a right."
Do these sycophants think it's "cool" to mindlessly side with whites and blacks? Is it not enough that we have to fight against discrimination? Now we have to fight amongst ourselves as well?
The second thing I hate about Asians is how little pride most of them have. This may be the result of societal brainwashing, but whatever the cause, it must stop. I am repulsed when I see Asian guys speak with British accents in an attempt to sound sophisticated.
British people can't be all that sophisticated if they don't yet understand the concept of dental hygiene. I am also sickened when I hear Asian people imitate Negro slang in an endeavor to sound "ghetto."
Am I supposed to be impressed that such a person emulates the attitude of a supposed slum resident? More importantly, whatever happened to being yourself?
The third thing I hate about Asians is how apathetic many of them are in terms of honor these days. If I saw an Asian being stereotyped in a movie theater, I would immediately stand up and shout incessantly at the screen so that none of the white audience members could enjoy the film.
When I saw a white man yelling at an old Asian woman a few months ago, I walked up to him and hollered slurs right back in his Aryan face. But most other Asians, I am disappointed to say, would rather just chuckle at their own stereotypes on screen and ignore the problems of their brethren.
At the risk of sounding corny, whatever happened to the days of the samurai? When honor meant more than life? Whatever happened to the age of Sun Tzu when we used to kick ass?
Don't get me wrong. I love the Asian race, but every race has its inferiors.
Proof That Whites Inherently Hate Us
by Kenneth Eng
Nov 24, 2006
White people hate us and will always hate us. Here is a simple list of evidence, going from the most obvious down to the least obvious:
How many American films feature Asian heroes who are not stereotyped?
If someone makes a negative comment about a black person, all of the whites get hopping mad. Make a negative comment about the Asian race and nobody cares.
Most Asians know that everywhere we go, white/black/Hispanic people hurl racist remarks at us. I have already received about 10 racist remarks in the past three months and I have only been out of my home a handful of times.
In 1982, Vincent Chin was killed by two white people, Michael Nitz and Ronald Ebens. Both murderers went free, as the judge claimed that they were not the type of people who deserved to be in prison.
Chai Vang righteously killed six white people after they approached him with guns first. Unlike the "men" who murdered Vincent Chin, brave Mr. Vang was sentenced to life.
Asian civil rights activities receive virtually no media attention. Yet Rosa Parks was pretty much honored as a hero just because she refused to give up her seat. This is curious because Vincent Chin died to defend his race. Why hasn't he been given an award?
It is quite naïve to think that all of this can be explained by claiming that whites are not "enlightened" or that whites lack awareness of our issues. It is even more immature to think that things will get better if only we continue to protest peacefully through lame marches and letters to the producers of (insert any American TV show here).
Animals, through evolution, are intrinsically developed to detest organisms that are different; the obvious reason being that conformity to a certain level increases the chances of a species' survival. Since humans are part of the animal kingdom, it should be no surprise that whites have evolved to hate Asians, who have a strikingly different appearance than them.
Furthermore, we do live in an age where "political correctness" and anti-racism are in vogue. Why then, are there virtually no Asian heroes in the media? This is solid proof that we are enemies in the eyes of the Aryans. If even in an epoch where equality is an important matter they still do not treat us as equals, then what hope is there that they will ever treat us equally?
More importantly, why should we care? We vastly outnumber them. When you have a disobedient child, you do not give him gifts to make him abide to your will. You show him the cane.

I guess I'm glad you posted this, but I kind of wish I hadn't allowed this guy's nasty mind-set to enter my consciousness.
A new enthusiast of The Secret, I determined while reading this that this young man attracts most of this hatred into his immediate world.
I'm glad he got fired. He needs a time-out to think about his nasty, inner rat nest. After all, no one can make you feel inferior without your consent. And one of Eng's own pieces is titled in agreement.
As he grows older, he'll hopefully mellow and realize that if he stops giving so much attitude, people may actually respond with tons of love.

Hello Paula,
Great post!! As a socially conscious writer and image-maker, one learns to respect the power of the written word and visual images. With power comes responsibility. As kween.kon stated, the damage is already done. So, where do we go from here?
Mr. Eng's article had to get the "stamp of approval" from quite a few of the newspapers editors and managers "before" Eng's derogatory words got published. They are just as guilty and should be held accountable for authorizing this article.

Yeah Sarah, I agree. That's why we shouldn't be able to name all the sexy Asian leading movie stars on one hand.
Like, if I asked you to name all the sex white male actors, the list would be too long!
We could always use more Asian and black male leads!
Paul -- whoops, almost typed my name there! Your post was a trip. But I like it when folks are honest.
And The Lover was a trip.
I've heard that, Daniel, but I hope I would be well-received in other countries, no matter my color. We shall see some day...
Kween, that's exactly what I was thinking!
Kenneth Eng must be expecting hate and therefore he's getting a lot of it back!
But I wonder what happened in Eng's childhood to make him so angry?
There's the real story...
Manchild (in the Promised Land!) - You're so right!
The tripped-out thing is that I remember AsianWeek was all up in arms over the publicity pics for that segregated survivor cause they didn't like the fact that all the Asians were on their knees!
Funny how that sensitivity slipped their minds when approving a "Why I Hate Blacks" piece.
But I'm glad they apologized, and since Jesus forgave us all for more horrible stuff, I hope the AsianWeek folks receive forgiveness too...

I was curious to know how a person with an education could come to such idiotic conclusions so I looked up some of his other writings and it's crap, along with his claim of being the youngest published sci-fi author in the US at age 20. I suspect plagerism in the instances where his words rise above the excremental.
But seriously, I think the kid's got ISSUES and the problems he's encountered were brought on by his own actions. According to him, Hitler was admirable, suicide is fine if you're a loser, and only morons believe in God. He goes around shouting this bilge from the hilltop and wonders why people wanna knock him off it. "Oh, I'm SO oppressed!" he whines, "This is supposed to be the land of free speech!" while depriving the rights of those who disagree. He seems awful lazy to me. Why bother learning the truth when you can dismiss everyone as inferior? Why bother being decent when you can elicit a greater reaction being a jerk and whine, "Oh, they don't like me cause I'm Asian."
I'm not really bothered by the ravings of this ignorant asshat. I was more interested in knowing how
As I figured, most of the Asian community was digusted and suspect the few posts who agreed with him were posted by Eng himself. And people wonder why we have a Black History month?
Still it makes me wonder if someone, somewhere is sitting in a really expensive chair(or hooded robe), smiling over his tea (Jack Daniels) thinking "Damn! Divide and Conquer still works!"

Well, Kenneth Eng proves, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that Asians can be just as stupid as all other races. This proves that they don't hold a monopoly on intellectualism.
Thank you Mr. Eng.
As a person of the African American persuasion I found your ignorant and elementary level knowledge of black Americans hilarious. You are superior to me in your own mind little boy.

I thought Kenneth Che-Tew Eng would be apologetic after this thing blew up. But he still says he's not sorry!

Paula you were quite tender with Kenneth Eng.
- Saturday, March 10, 2007 9:13:00 PM
A bill a retainder is appropriate for Kenneth Eng.

Asians need to go back where they came from. No one forced them to come here. Their here because they want to benefit from other peoples work namely Black and White people. Asians are not that smart. They are a artificial petty bourgiose class that is propped up by Whites and dependent on Whites for everything that they have or will get. All around the world the so-called Asians are hated.Asians hate Asians. Malaysia, Indonesia or the Phillipines don't want them. Ken Eng is wanted in NYC about as much as animal is wanted in at a garden party. He and is ilk should return to their homelands.

That last comment made about Asians is hateful and mean -- it's the same thing said about blacks.
I just watched Babel and it's got me thinking about races and cultures and assumptions.
I can only go back to Christ's highest commandment -- to love our neighbors as ourselves...

Not only did the San Ysidro school board reject a plan Tuesday night to pay criminal defense fees for Superintendent Manuel Paul, the board also placed him on administrative leave for 45 days.
Paul had sought $100,000 of tax money for his own defense, and $100,000 for school board member Yolanda Hernandez. After the board voted unanimously to reject Paul's legal fees and place him on leave, Hernandez said she did not want the district to fund her legal defense.
Paul and Hernandez are among 15 current and former South County school officials and contractors from three districts whose indictments were unsealed last week in a corruption probe by the District Attorney's Office. The DA claims officials took meals and other considerations in exchange for multimillion dollar school bond construction contracts.
The defendants are set to enter pleas on Jan. 30.
Paul and Hernandez are listed in documents filed in court by the DA as guests of contractor Henry Amigable in July 2008 at a $1,700 meal at Morton's steakhouse. Amigable has pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor and is cooperating with prosecutors.
Paul admitted in a deposition for an unrelated lawsuit last summer that he took $2,500 from a contractor in the parking lot of another steakhouse. He testified that it was a campaign contribution to buy signs for Hernandez. Federal investigators have inquired separately about that exchange.
Assistant Superintendent Gloria Madera was put in charge by the board, and Paul may be consulted on district operations as necessary during his leave, said board President Jason Wells.
Some wanted stiffer discipline than paid leave for Paul.
"You have the duty as representatives of the community to fire him," said Carol Wallace, president of the teacher's union. "But you chose not to. Shame on you. Our community, we deserve better and you should give us better."
Paul did not make public comments on the issue. He left the meeting before the votes and was unavailable for comment.
When Hernandez withdrew the request for taxpayers to cover her legal defense, her statement was met with cheers from the audience.
"Out of respect to our community, I do not want to use this money," Hernandez said, adding, "I am innocent."
In January 2012, after Sweetwater Union High School District trustees were charged with similar crimes stemming from the DA's investigation, the school board considered paying up to $1.3 million for criminal defense.
To avoid the appearance of conflicts-of-interest, Sweetwater board members planned to step out of the room while votes to pay their personal legal bills were cast.
The California Government Code prohibits elected officials from benefiting directly from any contract approved by the board on which they serve, whether they vote or not. But criminal-defense attorney James Pokorny, who was representing Sweetwater trustee Bertha Lopez and now represents Paul, said the proposed Sweetwater arrangement avoided state conflict-of-interest rules because there would not be an actual contract.
He told The Watchdog in 2012 that instead of approving a specific agreement, the attorneys would simply submit invoices to the Sweetwater district absent a signed agreement.
"The key word is contract," Pokorny said.
More than 700 people turned up at that Sweetwater school board meeting, many to protest the plan, and the legal fee proposal did not move forward for lack of a motion to proceed.

Real Estate Law Focus Area
The Real Estate Law Focus Area provides a range of courses dealing with the purchase and sale of real property and its development for a variety of uses. The focus area builds from the first-year Property and Contracts courses to the foundational courses: Real Estate Transactions, which provides coverage of the formation, execution, and enforcement of real estate contracts and the transfer and financing of real property; and Land Use Regulation, which provides coverage of issues dealing with the development and use of real property. Building on these basics, a student then takes a course in Advanced Real Estate and chooses from elective courses in the real property area dealing with more specialized use and development issues, development of real estate and its taxation, and other issues that can affect real estate, such as bankruptcy, income taxation, and municipal law. There are opportunities for skills development in skills component courses such as the real estate drafting lab and externships in environmental law and land use.
There are two paths within real estate law. One deals primarily with the financing and development of real property, the other with issues of land use and environmental law. Although there is a separate Environmental, Natural Resource, and Land Use Focus Area, the Real Estate focus differs from it in that it deals with the transactional and financing aspects of real estate.
Students Who Should Take this Focus Area
Students whose primary interest is real estate should, of course, consider this focus. In addition, students who are considering a more general practice of law may want to consider the real estate law focus; specific knowledge of real estate law is helpful because most lawyers in a general practice are routinely faced with real estate issues as their clients buy and sell land, houses and commercial properties, and seek to find space in which to develop their businesses.

Eating disorders are on the rise in the United States and throughout the world. Of all ages, teens are the most likely to develop an eating disorder. Eating disorders can seriously harm your child's health and lead to other emotional and physical problems. Your child will likely show signs of problem eating before a full-blown eating disorder develops. This sheet can help you recognize disordered eating patterns in your child. This can help you get treatment for your child as early as possible so you can protect your child's health.
An eating disorder is an intense focus on weight, appearance, and body image that causes abnormal eating patterns and changes in other behavior. Eating problems often involve eating very large or very small amounts of food, throwing up or otherwise purging food after eating, and excessive exercising.
The most common eating disorders are:
Anorexia nervosa: Eating so little that body weight is well below normal (often involves excessive exercise to keep weight down)
Bulimia nervosa: Throwing up or otherwise purging after eating to prevent gaining weight (often involves excessive exercise to keep weight down)
Even if a child's eating problems don't fit the definition of either of these two diagnoses, he or she may still have an eating disorder. Problems like these are known as an "eating disorder not otherwise specified." For instance, a child may eat an excessive amount of food without purging it afterward (known as binge eating disorder). These disorders can be very serious. So if your child shows any signs of problem eating, contact a healthcare provider right away.
Girls by far have the most problem with eating disorders, but boys can also get them. In fact, binge eating disorder affects almost the same number of boys as girls.
No one really knows what causes eating disorders. Certain things can make your child more likely to develop one. These include:
Having a parent or sibling with an eating disorder
Being a teen or in the early 20s
Participation in a sport or activity that requires a focus on weight or appearance (such as modeling, wrestling, dance, gymnastics, diving, or long-distance running)
Having a perfectionist personality
Having another emotional disorder, such as depression, anxiety, or obsessive-compulsive disorder
Most teens have issues with their appearance. Teens also tend to have issues around eating. But there are signs you can watch for that may signal a problem. If you notice any of the following, talk to your child's healthcare provider about treatment:
Constant dieting and trying fad diets (such as liquid diets); reading lots of diet books
Total avoidance of certain foods; sudden change in diet (such as becoming a vegetarian overnight)
Suddenly eating less food
Preparing food but not eating it, or eating only a very small amount
Refusing to eat with family or friends
Going to the bathroom often after meals
Gaining or losing weight quickly
Constant talk about weight
Constant checking of weight
Negative talk about a specific body part
Fear of gaining weight
Excessive exercise
Seeming to take multiple showers (to hide sounds of throwing up)
Taking diet pills or laxatives
Missing periods
Change in relationship with peers
Interest in pro-eating-disorder websites (websites that promote eating disorders)
If you suspect a problem, it's best to act now. This is better than waiting until the problem gets worse and harder to treat. Early treatment can also help prevent harm to your child's health. If your child shows signs of disordered eating, take him or her to see a healthcare provider. The healthcare provider can talk to and examine your child. Then, you can discuss treatment options. Treatment will depend on how serious an eating disorder your child has. Work closely with your child's healthcare providers to follow any treatment plan that is recommended.
The following tips can help make disordered eating less likely, and will help you catch disordered eating earlier:
Have family mealtimes as often as you can. If your child has disordered eating, have sit-down family meals every night. Make your child's presence at the meal mandatory.
Encourage activities that are not related to food or weight that your child finds rewarding. This may include learning a new skill, developing a hobby, or volunteering.
Model good food-related behavior for your child. Avoid binge eating or constant dieting yourself.
Avoid speaking critically about your child's weight or appearance, your own weight or appearance, or the weight of others. Praise your child for his or her accomplishments and behaviors, rather than how he or she looks.
Pay attention to your child's behavior and food intake. Be alert for signs of a problem.

'The sellout crowd of 18,690 booed loudly moments after the Islanders scored the winning goal in the third. Their reaction was in response to Sabres winger Maxim Afinogenov's hooking penalty, which led to the power-play score. But Sabres coach Lindy Ruff did not argue the call. Instead, he said, "Don't put your stick there," referring to Afinogenov's stick in former Sabre Miroslav Satan's midsection.'

Then she and Red got into an argument about Putin, the Russian character and when Tsarism and feudalism truly ended in Russia.
A very brief glance at Continental feudalism and its influence upon statute law may now be given.
Was the overthrow of feudalism in Europe a gain or a loss to commerce?
The remnants of feudalism were swept away—the landed proprietors being indemnified by the state for the loss they sustained.
Japanese feudalism was as bloody, as ruthless, as hard as European.
The restoration of the Meiji had ended the age of feudalism, at least on the surface.
Sardinia preceded France in solving the problem of feudalism.
It was simply an episode in the extension of feudalism and sacerdotalism.
They are the hieroglyphics of feudalism, succeeding those of theocracy.
feudalism in unemancipated countries, and oligarchy in the communes, made nearly the same ravages.
A system of obligations that bound lords and their subjects in Europe during much of the Middle Ages. In theory, the king owned all or most of the land and gave it to his leading nobles in return for their loyalty and military service. The nobles in turn held land that peasants, including serfs, were allowed to farm in return for the peasants' labor and a portion of their produce. Under feudalism, people were born with a permanent position in society. (See fief and vassal.)
Note: Today, the word feudal is sometimes used as a general term for a set of social relationships that seems unprogressive or out of step with modern society.

Southern Utah Season Ends with Defeat to Northern Colorado

"This gives us a sense of ability, of quiet confidence, a sense of commitment to what it is that we do as a basketball program," stated SUU head coach Nick Robinson. "For us to win on Thursday shows that we are capable, for us to lose tonight in the fashion that we did shows that we have a lot to improve on."
UNC built a 18-5 advantage over the first ten minutes as Southern Utah started the night hitting just one of its first ten attempts from the field. Senior guard Nate Unruh got the Northern Colorado offense going by knocking down his first four shots from the outside.
Trey Kennedy sank a jumper from the top of the key and the Thunderbirds battled back to within nine as John Marshall earned a trip to the foul line for two. Northern Colorado would shoot nearly 60 percent from floor in the first half to lead by a score of 40-20 at the break.
Unruh finished the period with 17 points on five 3-pointers. Derrick Barden added another 15 for the visitors while A.J. paced the Thunderbirds with six points over the first 20 minutes.
Cal Hanks put in the first two baskets of the second half for SUU after taking a pass inside from Marshall for a dunk and then dropping in a layup. Sophomore Casey Oliverson added another lay-in to bring the difference to 44-26 after two minutes of play. That would be as close as it would get however as the Bears pushed their lead to 27 on another three by Unruh and came out on top by a final margin of 77-52.
Unruh finished with 22 points, Barden posted 17 and Tevin Svihovec had 12 for the vistors. Northern Colorado shot 47.1 percent from three and 55.8 percent overall. The Bears also held a 29-25 rebounding edge.
Jaren Jeffery led the Thunderbirds with 11 points to go along with four rebounds, two blocks and two assists, while fellow senior Jayson Cheesman turned in two points, three boards and three blocks. Hess and Marshall each scored another nine for SUU.
"It's a tough loss, especially on our home court and especially for our seniors. Jaren and Jayson gave a great effort, put some points on the board, but it's a tough way to go out." stated Robinson. "Those guys have been part of building a foundation for this basketball program. A lot goes unnoticed when it comes to academics and representing Southern Utah off the court, and those two guys really exemplified that."

"I found my match, the guy I didn't believe could exist. He's my teammate and my best friend and next October, he will become my husband. "
When it comes to online dating, I was seasoned. You name it, I tried it. There's only so many bad first dates that one girl can take.
Last June, I sat in Starbucks with my best friend and asked a very important question. How young is too young? Her response: "Let me see him!." I shared his profile and a big smile appeared on her face. He was handsome, articulate and used proper grammar. After exchanging a few emails, I became excited. However, I knew better than to get my hopes up. And then it happened; after several days of emailing, he stopped responding. Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday – no emails. And then it came; Monday night I received an email that I'll never forget "Hey Alyssa, I found you on Facebook and it seems as though you are in a relationship. If you ever find yourself single, let me know and I'd love to treat you to that cup of coffee."
With my heart pounding and my mouth wide open, I replied, "I think there has been some sort of profound misunderstanding. The handsome shirtless guy pictured with me in one of my JDate pictures, my Facebook profile picture and in HIS Facebook profile picture is my best friend who happens to also be trying to find a BOYFRIEND." I am so grateful that he decided to send that email that night. We now recount that story with our families and laugh. It turns out his brother encouraged him to reach out one more time. I'll be indebted to him forever. I found my match, the guy I didn't believe could exist. He's my teammate and my best friend and next October, he will become my husband.

"Coming Up For Air" is out now!!!!
All year long, I've been back and forth between the road and the studio, with these pieces of music lingering in my ears. Today is the day where I show you the fruits of my labor. Today I release my second album. Today is harvest day.
For a limited time, "Coming Up For Air" will be available exclusively though the D.V.S* bandcamp page at dvsmusic.bandcamp.com.
This double album contains 30 songs broken into 2 hemispheres.
Volume 1 (DUSK) showcases 15 sizzling dancefloor tracks. Hip hop, dubstep, electrofunk, and moombaton are all explored through the lens of an electric guitar.
Volume 2 (dawn) illuminates the more relaxed side of my work, with 15 sexy downtempo tunes. Slide guitar, layered voices, and mandolin harmonies were welcomed into the spotlight for these compositions.
Special guests include producers Michal Menert & Kappa, violinist Govinda, vocalists Chantel, Arman Christoff & Mestre Acordeon, and emcee Dust77.
DigBoston comments on the (dawn) sound by saying, "It's as though he crossed sound waves with Bon Iver, only to meet Flying Lotus, all the while running alongside Thom Yorke. Many musicians can keep you moving all night, but few know a soundtrack for welcoming day-break, while bringing comfort to the soul."
I hope you dig. Please spread the word, by telling all your friends. I will greatly appreciate it. We both deserve this honor.


text: Here is what I would do if I were GM. It is radically different than what we'll likely see from Valley Ranch. 1. I'd have absorbed the necessary big hit in salary cap and gotten my books in order so that the future is clean. What's happening now with all these renegotiations is going to bleed us for years to come. And indeed I'd go further, in clearing out aging and dead wood (Austin, Free, etc) 2. If I could get somebody's 1, 2 and 3 for Romo --slightly less than has been suggested--I'd do that. 3. I'd make everybody angry and unhappy about the '13 season, but the team would be far better in the longterm. Without Romo we would be a 3-13 team. That's perfect. 4. I'd be willing to stink in 2013. I'd WANT to stink in 2013. Then next March we snag the pick of the litter of the young QBs. We'd have a high 2, a high 3, etc. Consider where my plan would seat us: -We'd have 3 premium picks from our trading partner. -We'd have a top 3 or top 4 pick in the 2014 draft to get our QB because of 2013 suckage. -We'd have lots of money to spend in future free agency, or to extend our own stars before they whiffed free agency. I would miss Romo but you don't want to give a MASSIVE contract to a guy of his age...esp. when the cap situation already sucks. And hey...I'm a Romo fan.

This Hustling World -MP3-
September 19th 2007
Next week, I'll be in Madrid to spin some records at a party thrown by the fine folks from Vampisoul Records. I can't wait to play out my latest finds. For all of you who can't make it there, here's my newest mix with some of the records I found on my trip to Ghana.
I guess most of you already know the fabulous 2 Ghana Soundz compilations. I made an effort to avoid using any tracks that were included on those. If you like what you hear on this mix and for some reason don't already own Ghana Soundz 1&2, do yourself a favor and support a really cool record label as well as the people behind this great music by surfing over to Soundway Records and ordering these two or any other of their fantastic releases. Downloads from the internet should never be a substitute for purchasing legitimate reissues on CD or Vinyl.
All artists or bands on this mix are from Ghana except the Apostles who were a Nigerian band. Click on the image to listen:
00:00 Gyedu-Blay Ambolley -this hustling world
04:10 Marijata -break through
09:10 George Danquah -just for a moment
12:48 Rob -more
18:00 The Apostles -black is beautiful
22:30 Ebo Taylor & Uhuru Yenzu -victory
26:40 K. Frimpong -kyenkyen bi adu m'awu

Post subject: State of the Franchise - The next 5 years (offense first)
The next 5 years are incredibly important for the Saints, no doubt about it. Drew Brees is on the backend of his prime years, along with other players such as Darren Sproles, Will Smith, and Jabari Greer. When the Brees era is over, Marques Colston will be 34, Jimmy Graham will be 30, Mark Ingram will be 27, and John Kasay might have grandkids.
Theres no point denying it, the Saints are in a must win now mode. 5 years in the NFL can come and go in the blink of an eye. Fans, players, and coaches will tell themselves next year is the year we make it year in and year out, never paying too much attention to how many years theyve been saying it. The Saints cant afford to have that attitude for long.
Lets look at how the Saints look at each position for the next 5 years.
The importance next 5 years are based around Drew Brees and his brand new contract. Not many players are worth $100,000,000 over 5 years (many would argue that Brees isnt) but in the end, the Saints needed Drew, and he was going to get whatever he wanted out of them. He needs to play at a very high level for all 5 years if the Saints want to get their money back out of the deal. I personally dont think Drew is going to play at a high level for all 5 years, but I do think he has enough gas left in the tank for several more quality runs at the Lombardi Trophy.
Mark Ingram has 3 more years left on his contract, making him a free agent in 2015. Its far too soon to speculate what type of money his next contract will demand, but I dont see the Saints spending big money on a RB, regardless of how well they perform. If Mark Ingram is a 800 yard, 10 TD running back Id expect the Saints to make a strong push to keep him on the team.
Darren Sproles will be a free agent in the same year as Ingram, but its doubtful Sproles will keep up his high level of play for the next 3 years, let alone long enough to deserve a new contract. The Saints believe Travaris Cadet can be that Darren Sproles type back in this offense, and he may be called on before those final 3 year of Sproles contract are up.
Pierre Thomas has been with the Saints longer than any other RB on the roster, and his contract also expires in 2015, just like Sproles and Ingram. He will be 30 years old when its time to sign a new contract (assuming a restructure hasnt been made) and its doubtful hell be much of an impact player after that.
Chris Ivory and Travaris Cadet are sort of the odd men out. Both of them have the potential to be impact players for the Saints, but theyre both going to have to work their butts off to get a shot. Chris Ivory was given a shot in 2010 when Reggie Bush and Pierre Thomas were both sidelined with injuries. Ivory led the team in yards that season, but apparently it wasnt enough for the coaches to make him the guy, as they used 2 draft picks to select Mark Ingram just a few months later. Cadet is totally unproven, but an impressive preseason campaign got him a roster spot, despite being the 5th halfback on the team.
Korey Hall and Jed Collins could likely be swapped with quite a few FBs in the league with little to no loss in production. Neither of them make much of an impact on our long term goals as a team.
Marques Colston and Lance Moore will both be around for a while. Lance Moore has 4 more years on his contract, while Colston has 5. Both of them will be keys to anything the Saints do offensively. While Colston is far an away the most important WR on the team, Lance Moore is incredibly valuable in his own way, he always seems to be in the right place when the team needs a score or a 3rd down.
Nick Toon and Joe Morgan are the young guys on the team. There's no way of knowing how much they will be able to contribute in the next year or two, but as Moore and Colston get into their early-mid 30's Toon and Morgan will have to step up, or they will be replaced. They are joining this team at the perfect time to be playing in their prime towards the end of the Brees era.
Courtney Roby and Devery Henderson are both vets who will likely contribute for another year or two, but it's not likely they'll be around longer than that.
The Saints need to get Jimmy Graham locked up for the long term. He is only under contract through the 2013 season, and he has easily outplayed his contract already. The Saints cannot afford a holdout or losing him to free agency. He is irreplaceable in this offense, and will be heavily relied upon in every game hes in.
Outside of Jimmy Graham, the Saints dont have any TEs they cant live without, or who couldnt be replaced in free agency. David Thomas works well in the offense and provides solid veteran leadership, but I dont think the offense would skip a beat without him.
Offensive Line:
Jahri Evans and Ben Grubbs will both be around long enough to protect Brees through a couple playoff runs. The guards on the New Orleans Saints line are just as important as tackles in other offensive lines. As long as the Saints can keep the guards healthy, they will be alright. A solid C goes a long way in protecting the pocket, so as long as DLP doesnt regress, or get significantly better his contract should be manageable for the Saints. This isnt to say I dont want DLP to improve, but if he asks for too much money, they may look elsewhere for a C, with so much money being tied up in Grubbs and Evans.
I think most average tackles could be made to look like pro-bowlers in the Saints offense. If a contract negotiation isnt working out, we can cut our losses and sign an average FA with little to know dropoff.
Defense coming soon!

I have some comments to make in response:
Sometime within the next 2 years, we NEED to draft a QB in the lower rounds, preferably the 2nd, that can be groomed to be Brees' replacement. Sorry to say it, but Daniel and Canfield are NOT the answer. Too often these days, teams are drafting QBs with the expectation of having them come in and immediately blow away opponents. Sometimes, if you're Cam Newton, that will work. But most end up floundering trying to grasp the level of play and intelligence on an NFL football field. One of the guys who is considered one of the top QBs in the NFL, Aaron Rodgers, sat behind Brett Favre for a few years to learn before taking the reigns. And, as much as it kills me to say it, MAN did he show people what's up. It just goes to show how crucial development and acclimation can be to a rookie QB, how it can make the difference between success and failure.
Frankly, we don't have a back-of-the-future sort of player. Even more frankly, we don't NEED to. While i haven't seen enough of Ingram to give him my vote of confidence, he is looking better this year. Even if he doesn't pan out, we have another couple of years to draft or sign a power-type back.
Cadet is shaping up nicely as a receiving/speed type back that can punish lazy defenses, just like Sproles does. So, at the moment, i'm not worried about that part of the stable.
The only part of our backfield i'm worried about is PT. The dude is a monster, he's easily the best back we have, and by far the most irreplaceable. He's slower than Sproles and Cadet, but stronger than Ingram and Ivory. He fights for every single inch he can get, and operates in both the pass and run game for our offense. That will be a huge hole to fill when he leaves, and it will need to be filled quickly for the Saints to remain good on offense.
I'm putting this together to save time.
Essentially, we have Colston, Moore, and Graham. Unless Toon develops like i'm hoping he does, that's the extent of our receiving core. We have a speedster in Morgan, whom i really like in the return game, but he's more suited for that area than he is as a receiver.
While Colston, Moore, and Graham are enough to maybe get by, we also, within the next 2 or 3 years, need to draft a prime-time reciever who can make some plays as a 3WR or 4WR, then come in to replace Colston or Moore, whoever decides to leave first. This is two-fold, because when we lost Colston and/or Moore, that leaves our new QB Graham to throw to when Brees leaves. We NEED more than one weapon on offense, it's that simple.
Call me bias all you like, but the line of scrimmage is where a play starts, sometimes a dozen or more seconds before the snap. For the O-line, you have to worry about what your assignment is. Do you run down field to the second level and take on a LB? Or do you try to double-team the NT in front of you and hope that your back can make a move to get past the LB? Or in the case of a pass, who's coming and who isn't? The guy in front of you, does he tend to bull rush or speed rush?
If a single offensive lineman doesn't do his job, the play can go from looking at a first down to lining up farther back than you were the next play around.
Therefore, i consider the line the most VITAL part of an offense. The Saints have incredible luck with O-linemen in the draft, Nicks and Evans to provide an example, so grabbing a high-profile linemen isn't a huge priority. While it's nice to have someone that's touted as the next great O-lineman, it's only nice if that statement is true. I like the Saints approach to this issue, they usually use a 4th, 5th, or 6th, and see if who they select pans out. OL is not an immediate issue, so it can wait to secure more pressing needs for the offense.
Thus, my draft priority for the next 5 years for the offense:
2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017
2012 Adopt-A-Saint:
Martez Wilson, DE: 1 Sack, 6 Tackles, 1 FF, 1 Punt Block
Will Smith, DE: 2 Sacks, 22 Tackles, 0 FF

Not all Africans captured and bound for slavery in the Americas actually were delivered into the harsh life of plantation work. More than 80,000 Africans were rescued from slavery in the early 1800s when the British Navy diverted their ships to foreign ports. Now G. Ugo Nwokeji, an assistant professor of history at the University of Connecticut, and his British colleague, David Eltis, are developing a database of the names of these rescued slaves. The information, collected from the British Public Record Office, should lead to new discoveries in African-American genealogy and the slave trade. (Update: You can see data on captured ships on the Web site Voyages: The Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade Database.)
"It's an unusual document in that slaves are recorded by their African names," Nwokeji says. "There is nothing like that in the history of the slave trade."

The original work of Bowen was focused on the dynamics within a nuclear family.
Bowen said his review found that senior Iraqi government officials "may not want or need this program."
Eventually, Bowen told The Beast, the State Department provided "sufficient, if not complete, data."
Lowe, Bowen, and Chung are all doing Knife Fight for a fraction of their usual fees.
On that show, Bowen, an avid runner, gets the most attention for her skinny build.
"It certainly doesn't compare with the Carnival last year," said Mrs. Bowen.
And now, Bowen, my dear old friend, let us know how you fared among the Dons.
Wandaroo was well within the Tropics, being in about the same latitude as Bowen, but a little to the north of it.
At his suggestion a commission was also offered to and accepted by Bowen.
The young fellows went on to speak of Mrs. Bowen, whom it seemed they had known the winter before.

EVERETT — The Everett Silvertips finished off their 2012-13 regular season in grand fashion Sunday evening.
And in the process they gave a glimpse of what may be in store for the future.
Everett's youth led the way in a rare offensive explosion as the Tips closed out the season with a 7-5 victory over the Tri-City Americans at Comcast Arena.
Rookie Tyler Sandhu scored a hat trick as Everett matched a season high for goals. The Tips did their damage early as they erupted for five in the first period en route to a 6-1 lead.
"We just really wanted it," Sandhu said. "We knew we did something wrong (blowing a late lead in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to Victoria). We wanted to go into the playoffs with a strong mindset. So tonight we were really bringing it, and we're going to bring it in the playoffs, too."
Tri-City made things interesting late by capitalizing on its power plays, but Everett's advantage was too large to overcome.
Landon Oslanski, Carson Stadnyk, Reid Petryk and Mitch Skapski also scored for Everett (25-40-3-4), while Joshua Winquist pitched in with three assists. Daniel Cotton earned the win in goal with 24 saves for Everett, which begins its best-of-seven Western Conference playoff series against the top-seeded Portland Winterhawks on Friday in Portland.
"You always want to go in on a high note," Winquist, who finished the season as Everett's leading scorer with 51 points in 51 games, said about the importance of ending the season with a win. "It sucks going into the playoffs losing your last game, so hopefully we can build on this momentum."
Malte Stromwall scored twice to lead Tri-City (20-27-2-3), which ended its season on a five-game losing streak. Zachary Yuen, Connor Rankin and Jesse Mychan also scored for the Americans, while Luke Lee-Knight made 17 saves in net.
Sunday's game had no bearing on either team for the playoffs. Everett was already locked into the Western Conference's eighth seed. Tri-City had already clinched the fifth seed and will play Spokane in the first round.
As a result, both teams fielded young teams and gave those youngsters plenty of ice time. Everett's youth responded as five of the seven goals were scored by players in their 16-year-old or 17-year-old seasons.
None of those youngsters had a bigger impact than Sandhu. The 16-year-old winger scored all three of his goals in the first 28 minutes as Everett built its commanding lead. Two of those goals came as he crashed the net hard for rebounds.
"That was really nice," Sandhu said about his first career hat trick. "I got a little help, obviously, from Josh and (Manraj Hayer). I just went to the net and I got a couple bounces."
Sandhu finished the season with 19 goals, the most among 16-year-olds in the Western Conference.
Everett, which has been at the bottom of the league in goals scored all season long, had a cathartic outburst in the first period, putting five pucks in the net to take a 5-1 lead. The five goals were the most Everett has scored in a period all season, and the Tips hadn't scored five goals in an entire game since a 5-1 home victory over Seattle on Jan. 18.
Sandhu began the proceedings just 1 minute, 31 seconds into the game when he was found all alone in front by Winquist. Oslanski made it 2-0 at 7:12 when he intercepted an outlet pass and wristed a shot in from the right circle. Then Stadnyk made it 3-0 at 8:31, slipping the puck under Lee-Knight on a breakaway.
Tri-City briefly interrupted the deluge at 10:53 when Yuen fought off a challenge in the slot and fired the puck under Cotton. But Everett kept coming, with Sandhu tipping in a rebound from out of the air at 17:11 and Petryk punishing the Americans for a defensive turnover at 18:30.
So what was the source of Everett's unexpected first-period outburst?
"I'm not too sure, but it was pretty awesome," Winquist said. "Everybody enjoyed it. Everything just seemed to go in for us, and it was nice."
Sandhu then finished off his hat trick 8:00 into the second period with his second high-speed rebound goal of the game, making it 6-1.
That seemed to clinch it for Everett, but the Americans took advantage of its power plays, converting three times in the game's final 28 minutes to make the Tips sweat a bit at the end.
Slap shots
With nothing to play for, Everett fielded a lineup that included three call-up 15-year-olds in center Matt Fonteyne and defensemen Kevin Davis and Noah Juulsen. For Juulsen, a native of Abbotsford, B.C., who was a fourth-round pick in the 2012 bantam draft, it was his WHL debut. … Tri-City, played one skater short and dressed just five defensemen as veterans Mitch Topping (lower-body injury), Drydn Dow and Michal Plutnar were all scratched.
