Sick DaysJanuary 17th, 2007 , by admin
I haven't blogged in a while. My boys and I had strep last week, and I'm still catching up on sleep whenever possible. I usually don't get strep, but when I do, it really hits me hard...worse than the flu. Caring for two sick children didn't help me get better as fast as I'd hoped.
So, we survived and now we're getting back into the swing of things.
Otherwise, things have been going well for us.
Happy New Year!January 1st, 2007 , by admin
I must say that I'm happy to have the holidays and their avoids, behind me. It was great fun, but I had a few too many avoids. I did avoid all gluten, and that's a good thing. Only one more holiday event coming up, a big dinner at a restaurant. I know from experience that it's too risky for me to actually eat there...so I'll bring some chewy finger food and sparkling water, and I'll just focus on and enjoy the company.
Loved Isa's blog today. I'm a new student of the law of attraction, but I can see it all around me now that my eyes are open to it. Funny thing is, you probably can tell that I'm rather obsessed with the gluten-free lifestyle, it's in my thoughts quite a bit. I went out to visit my parents in rural utah for Christmas, and stayed in the house most of the time, but one of the times I did go out I met two other women who were gluten free. I probably only talked to 4 or 5 strangers that evening, but two of them were gluten free! What are the odds of that? Of course, the topic always comes up at a restaurant, and my server was also gluten-free and dairy-free (now that's always a sigh of relief!). My other stop was at a pharmacy to get my MetaNX (B6/B9/B12) refill, and the pharmacist's assistant had just been diagnosed with celiac disease a few weeks prior. (MetaNX is usually prescribed for coronary artery disease...not what I have, but it has done wonders for my HDL cholesterol!)
One thing that The Secret video says, about the law of attraction, is that it's better to focus on what you're FOR rather than what you're AGAINST, as in, have a peace rally instead of a war protest...if you want to really reach a goal. I'm trying to think of a way to apply this to the gluten free diet. What else could I call it, besides gluten-free? Health-full is accurate but not quite specific enough...how do you specifically say you don't eat something in positive terms? Celiac diet is descriptive, but as the name of a disease it's still not a positive way to say it. I'm open to ideas, because I can't quite pin down the right words. So many foods are described as much by what they are free of, rather than what they actually are... bone-building diet? Digestable foods diet. Nutrient-dense is good, but still not specific.
Dr. D'Adamo has said something like "telling people what not to eat helps them get less sick, but only telling them what to eat makes them well" so one of my goals is to focus on the beneficials.
It's been a wild ride this year, but I've learned a lot. I actually did lose some height due to the vitamin D deficiency, and resulting hypocalcemia and bone loss. So the upside is, that I can now have a unique goal for a nearly-32-year-old this year...to get taller! I'm grateful to know my path to wellness, I'll focus on the expansive scenery along the way, and the company I keep, rather than the narrowness of the pathway!
Celiac FuturamaDecember 19th, 2006 , by admin
What will celiac disease be in the future?
Currently it is a very under-diagnosed condition, but quite common, I read that it is more common that Crohn's, Colitis and IBS combined, and that's just at the current conservative estimate of 1 in 133. Awareness is growing, and so are our options.
First off, there is more access to gluten-free foods. I can carb out and junk out almost as much as a non-celiac. In my case, that's not always a good thing,
The best improvement now is the access to information. Sometimes it is overwhelming, so I'm glad I can read everything through the lense of the BTD. Corn and soy are pretty prevalent in GF food, and it's nice to know I do feel so much better without them.
Will a wonder-drug come out for celiac disease? Will I take it?
The zonulin-receptor-antagonist looks promising, not only for making it so celiacs can eat gluten, but also for many of the associated complications of celiac disease which can affect the skin, lungs, blood/brain barrier, nervous system, or any system in the body. A drug for CD would also serve to improve the rates of diagnosis. Once a drug company starts pushing a drug for it, doctors will start testing for it so that they can prescribe said drug. I'd bet that testing would be simplified as well, and maybe biopsies wouldn't even be necessary any more. Once the GF diet is no longer considered a major lifestyle altering event, perhaps they won't be so selective about how much damage has to be done before treating it. Most people are more eager to get a diagnosis that just involves popping a pill, than one that changes their whole way of eating and socializing.
Will I take the drug? As much as I prefer to not take drugs, I would consider it. It may make other drugs unnecessary for some celiacs, and may even have some positive side effects. However, first I'd want to understand why we produce zonulin in the first place, and why we need to block it's effects. There must be some reason why the body produces some zonulin, is it just a genetic error that makes some of us produce too much, or respond to it the way we do? Stomach acid isn't a bad thing, when the right foods are eaten, likewise can zonulin be all bad?
If I did take the drug, I still would avoid gluten. It would be a nice bit of armour for those times that gluten sneaks up on me, but I wouldn't use it as a license to eat krispy kreme. Nope...nothing can convince me to eat wheat-laden junk again. Not even a slice of fresh San Francisco Sourdough on Christmas day? Hmmmm. I'm not going to think about that option anymore...not an option. Whoa...it's been a long time since a thought like that has gotten into my head. <
Ok, back on track. I think things will continue to make life easier for celiac disease patients. Some of it may be a mixed bag, but things are getting easier and better.
Second-Class CeliacDecember 10th, 2006 , by admin
As my readers know, I never had a biopsy to confirm celiac disease. Sometimes in celiac circles, or especially doctor's offices, I am left feeling like I'm not a true bona-fide celiac. It doesn't bother me enough to go and do the challenge, make myself sick, and get the biopsy (which may or may not be accurate) to find out… but it does bother me. Would I rather trust a lab than listen to my own body? Would I want to risk a false negative and continue poisoning myself? No and no. The damage, to whatever extent, had gone far enough. Gluten sensitivity, even if that's all I had, can have the same complications that bona-fide celiac disease has. I think a biopsy, if I had had one at the right time, would have shown damage, but regardless, whether I'm first-class or second-class, they are equally serious...
Quote from enterolab website:
"Do my positive results mean I have celiac sprue or that I need an intestinal biopsy?
The immune reaction to gluten is gluten sensitivity. Testing for the presence of an antibody produced against gluten is the diagnostic hallmark of gluten sensitivity (for years in the blood, and now more sensitively detected in stool with our testing). Although the immune reaction to gluten, i.e., gluten sensitivity, is the cause of the villous atrophy of celiac sprue, having these antibodies in stool, or even malabsorption, does not necessarily mean you will have detectable villous atrophy in an intestinal biopsy. But why does it matter, since it is known that a person can have every last complication from gluten sensitivity and never have villous atrophy? In other words, one can have gluten sensitivity damaging the intestine on a sub-microscopic level destroying function, or damaging other organs/tissues without having celiac sprue. Thus, there is no reason to expose yourself to the risks, invasive nature, and expense of an intestinal biopsy. This idea is not new. Some have said this for years with respect to positive antiendomysial antibodies. Now we extend this ideology to our stool testing; if you have the immune reaction, and especially if you have detectable malabsorption, symptoms, and/or immune disease, what is there to wait for to go gluten-free? And if you have none of these consequences, why wait for them to appear? Be thankful you do not, and go gluten-free."
I was doing a bit of research on gluten ataxia, as an article came out in Living Without about it. Since my brother's amnesia, I have a deep interest in the topic. The man in the article also had memory loss, though only temporarily. So I did some searches online and was surprised to find that, once a neurologist has ruled out everything else, the diagnostic hallmark of gluten ataxia is the presence of antigliadin antibodies in the blood. That test, antigliadin IgG, is the same test that gastroenterologists say is meaningless in diagnosing celiac disease. Those with gluten ataxia will be sent in for a biopsy, but whether the biopsy shows damage to the villi or not, they are put on a gluten free diet, and if the antigliadin IgG goes down, their recovery is very likely.
Now, there are some things that can keep the antigliadin IgG from going down like it should, one of these things is cross-reacting. That is when the body confuses other proteins for gluten, usually casein (milk), but also possibly soy, and remotely possibly corn (as we learned from dogtorj in the link I posted last time. Enterolab provides tests for soy and casein sensitivity, as well as a few others. Unfortunately they don't have one for corn. Another thing that can keep antigliadin IgG from going down is cross contamination.
Unfortunately I had a bad time from cross-contamination this week. I was using a sponge to scrub pans that had gluten cooked in them, for those in my house that can eat it, namely stuffed ravioli. After scrubbing it thoroughly, I put it in the dishwasher to complete the cleaning. Well, somebody else helped in the kitchen and used that same sponge to scrub my cast iron frying pan. Cast iron is porous enough that this was a problem, and it's not something that can be cleaned in the dishwasher. Can you say bye bye sponges, and hello new pans for Christmas?
I've had 4 days now of feeling lousy, clumsy, weak, bathroom-dependent, and moody. Last night I started getting hypocalcemia symptoms again-numbness, so I took extra doses of calcium and a tad extra vitamin D, to make up for lost absorption. I took the good stuff too, phytocal. That seemed to help the symptoms within hours.
Casein Intolerance Food Intolerance & hypocalcemia, et. al.December 7th, 2006 , by admin
After Thanksgiving (I swore I wouldn't do it, but I did have some dairy) I am now positive that I am casein intolerant and that my body confuses casein with gluten. Maybe pregnancy triggered it into full swing, but I've always gotten moody after having dairy, even goat. Now, my Dermatitis Herpetiformis (celiac disease of the skin) gets itchy and inflamed if I have dairy, and of course, I have to run to the bathroom a few times. I suspect it is dairy that started my DH and similar new celiac symptoms, although it could have also been the restaurant roulette I played for a while...what can I say, maybe I'm a compulsive gambler but no more.
Soy also does more to me digestively, so I could be soy intolerant as well. I've eaten at PF Chang's a few times, because in all the years they've never accidentally glutened me. Although I did have some items with soy and ugh!
So here we are...gluten, casein, soy and corn. Corn doesn't give me digestive upset yet, but more than makes up for it with the other add-ins.
I'm researching how food intolerances and Vitamin D deficiency may be related, and found this link: http://www.dogtorj.net/id26.html and I'm looking for more like it. His assertion is that all four foods are glue-like, and coat the intestine, and can all induce damage to the villi and malabsorption and then some! Interesting facts from a veteranarian standpoint, that some breeds of dog have had severe health problems since they started putting wheat and milk in dog foods.
If I were to look at everything from a simply celiac view, I would say it's a major bummer to not be able to eat the other three...they sure help in baking... but knowing what we know with BTD, it's no surprise. Why I use myself as a guinea pig to find out all these details, I don't know, I'd be better off if I just maintained compliance. At least I've reached a point where compliance is rather second-nature, without undue tempation and stress, so that's good. There's some sources that say once my vitamin D deficiency is cleared up I won't have so much trouble with food cravings...I look forward to finding out that there is truth in that!
Oh, and here's an informative link for info on hypocalcemia: http://www.clevelandclinicmeded.com/diseasemanagement/endocrinology/hypocal/hypocal.htm* This could explain so many things for me...I hope it's one of those health-changing answers. So far so good; I'm able to withstand stress better, numbness sensations are maybe weekly at most, rather than many times a day, and things are just looking up in general.
*Ok, that link is a little scary, in my case the cause of hypocalcemia is known, simple vitamin D deficiency (if a vitamin D deficiency can be simple! ), and the doctor did draw quite a few vials of blood to rule out other problems, which turned up no surprises. I found the description of symptoms and what can cause them to manifest to be of the most interest, since I'd been trying to figure out the cause-and-effects for a long time.
P.S. Have I mentioned that if you get your vitamin D level checked, they need to check both forms, (25 and 1,25), and preferably see an endocrinologist, especially if either of those is off. It's all a complex web, and it can take a specialist to descipher it. I had a blood test showing a slight magnesium deficience years ago, which could very well be part of the web...but the usual response I get from usual doctors is "don't worry about it, just eat a little more of this or that" I say why do they run the darn test if they aren't going to look into any anomaly it turns up? Same goes for the anti-gliadin IGG test, if doctors are going to dismiss the results, then why do they run it? If it's high, but all the IgA tests are negative, then maybe IgA deficiency is something to look into before dismissing celiac possibilities...yeah, sure is.

Construction employment hits three-year high
The building boom is on.
Construction companies added 48,000 jobs in February, the ninth consecutive month of job growth, as more people are working in construction than at any point in the last three plus years, according to an analysis of new government data by the Associated General Contractors of America.
"With construction employment increasing by the largest amount for a single month in nearly six years, the steady improvement in construction hiring is particularly encouraging," said Kenneth Simonson, the association's chief economist, in a statement. "The job gains are coming from every part of the construction industry and while the sector's unemployment rate remains stubbornly high, it is heading in the right direction."
Construction firms employed 5.78 million people in February, a gain of 48,000 from January and 140,000 or 2.5 percent from a year ago. The industry unemployment rate, which is not seasonally adjusted and thus is typically high in February, fell to 15.7 percent last month, down from 17.1 percent one year ago.
Residential and nonresidential construction added jobs for the month and year. Residential construction added 19,400 jobs in February and 64,200, a 3.1 percent gain, over the last year. Nonresidential construction expanded by 29,000 employees in February and 75,700 or 2.1 percent, over last year.
Association officials said that recent improvements in construction employment could be undermined if Congress and the Obama administration fail to reach agreement to fund federal operations known as a continuing resolution by the time it expires on March 27. Should Washington officials fail to enact a new continuing resolutions, tens of billions of dollars worth of federal investments in infrastructure and construction projects could be shut down, the association said.

This week is National Library Week, a nationwide observance to celebrate the contributions of libraries, librarians and library workers to their schools and communities. We are the heart of the community, a place where people come together for meetings, programs, research, job searching, homework assistance, a good book and a nice cup of coffee. People of all ages and backgrounds find entertainment, develop skills and come to find their place in the community.
You gather for book discussions, storytimes with your children, and to join the Friends of the Library in their good work. This is not only a great time to see what's new at your library, but also a time to stand up and speak out as a library advocate. During the week we will be holding a food drive for the local pantry. For each food item brought into the library, we will wave 50¢ in overdue library fines. This is an opportunity to clear up your fines and help the local Food Pantry. You may drop off food items even if you don't have fines. The Food Pantry appreciates your help.

A charming rabbits & heart picture - a lovely gift for lovers or newly weds with a love of animals and bunnies. We hand finish the rabbits with Penny's signature puff of sheep's wool for their tails. A lovely finishing touch to raise a smile. These rabbits are based on a real pet rabbit that Penny had as a student many years ago! We print this picture on a cotton rag paper handmade in southern India. Cotton rags have longer fibres than linters. These are the shorter fluffy fibres of the cotton seed generally used in papermaking. Genuine rag papers are rare and it is the fibre length of this raw material that gives this particular rag paper its exceptional strength and durability. The cotton rag used comes from T-shirt cuttings, a reliable source of pure woven cotton. The paper production is part of a Water Aid project Mounted picture size - 270 x 185 mm This is NOT a standard frame size, so would need a made to measure frame.

Since we had some extra time before lunch, our tour guides for the pottery trip offered to take us for a quick visit to a riverside market. Similar to all of the Thai, Burmese and Laotian markets that we have been to, this one was crowded, chaotic and stinky but wow, what a sight to see!
I have no idea what some of the food/fruit/veggies are in these photos - if I did know, I commented. You can get a very good idea from these photos as to the "vibe" of the market and what is on offer. It was just about lunchtime and there was a lot to chose from (if you were so inclined)...
The photo below is of Thai candies. I believe I heard that they are made out of bean paste but do not know that for sure. I have never tasted them - they do look pretty though!
Some kind of fish stew or soup...
The fruits in the photos below are pomelo.
I think these are broad beans.
Mounds of shallots and garlic.
In the photo below, the fruits in the top bin (that looks similar - from afar- to an artichoke) are called Custard Apple. The fruits in the bottom bin are Asian Pears.
Water lotus flowers.
I am on a mission to find out what kind of fruit this is...
Star fruit.
Cut orchids.
No idea what this vegetable is but it sure looked interesting...
Mangoes, papaya and custard apples.
Food prepped and ready to be cooked for the lunch crowds.
Spices and sauces.
More Thai candies.
Piles of dried anchovies.
More Thai candies.
More pomelos.
The vendor below is selling Rose Apples.
I saved the best for last!

Due to heavy snow falls in the early hours of Saturday the Park will be closed for the day. At 8.30 am there were 4 inches of snow across the site with more falling at an alarming rate. The A3 was down to a single track and both north and south bound slip roads had yet to be cleared of snow.
All Santa activities will be covered by a refund. Unfortunately there are no alternative dates this side of Christmas.
With regard to Sunday a decision will be taken as early as possible on the day.

Killer Tornadoes in Oklahoma struck Friday in Central Oklahoma, killing five people and threatening residents of Oklahoma City and its suburbs, Moore. Victims included a mother and her baby. The storm system raged northeast on Saturday morning, heading for the neighboring states of Illinois and Missouri. (Reuters). Governor Jay Nixon had declared a state of emergency on Friday.
The tornadoes struck just 11 days after a twister ranked as EF5, the most powerful ranking possible, tore through Moore and killed 24 people.
The mother and baby had been traveling on Interstate 40, just west of Oklahoma City, when their storm raised the vehicle dragged out of it, according a spokeswoman for the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, Betsy Randolph,. Drivers on the interstate were subject to multiple crashes and injuries by the storm. The storm tipped over trucks, flung hay bales in the air, downed power lines and attacked cars. The interstate was closed. 3 inches of rain stranded motorists in flooding water. They had in conceivably tried to flee the storm in autos. The danger was greatest for motorists on freeways in the twister's path.
The reactions of people to the storm created the most peril from the killer tornadoes…
The killer tornadoes swept over interstate 70 between St. Louis and Charles County, overturning semi dash trailers, according to Brett Lord -Castillo, a spokesman for the St. Louis County Emergency Management Agency.
Tim Oram, a, meteorologist for the National Weather Service, said officials didn't know exactly how many tornadoes had touched down. Three major thunderstorms with tornado potential had moved through the center of the state.
Two of the victims lived in rural areas of Oklahoma City, including Union City and EL Reno. The suburb of Norman was also menaced by the storm system.
The Oklahoma health system stated that over 40 people were being treated for injuries related to the storm. Five were in critical condition including, a child.
Meteorologists had earlier declared a tornado emergency for parts of the Oklahoma City metropolitan area. They had posted a tornado warning for Moore.
Shocked victims were burying children.
Even as the service listed the tornado warning for Oklahoma City and nearby areas, flash floods inundated parts of the metropolitan area, where more than 1.3 million people live. 200,000 customers were without power in Oklahoma, Missouri and Illinois.
Rescuer workers suffered injuries as well.
There were severe thunderstorm warnings extending from Minnesota and Michigan to Arkansas. Forecasters said overnight storms overnight could incite several more intense tornadoes, as well as hail up to 4 inches in diameter and wind gusts at 80 mph.
A funnel cloud was spotted near Will Rogers world Airport. It could full attention we become a tornado. Tornado warnings were in effect in many counties of Oklahoma, Missouri, Illinois and Wisconsin…
Forecasters fear that much of the Midwest, which has already been pummeled by a week of tornadoes and floods, had another round of violent weather approaching overnight and into the weekend.
Oklahoma officials will be assessing the damage at daybreak.
Residents in the central part of the country may face a tornado-stricken summer,
most threatened by killer tornadoes.

Mr Onek Santo comes from a clan known as P'cet. The "cet" in Acholi can be dung or feaces. In this case it means feaces.The name of this clan implies that the people belong to or came from "cet". Ho did this come about? It is said that this wanderers at one time had a very good harvest. There was so much food that children had their stomachs full all the time. They defecated all over their compound. Nearby bushes were littered with feaces too. Ousiders who came to this people were welcome by buzzing flies. It did not take long for their neighbours to nickname them Pucet just because there was cet everywhere in their compound.
Pnek says his ancestors came from South Sudan. They first settled at Lokung in Kitgum district. After some time a section of the group broke away and moved westwards under the leadership of Amaga. Amaga led this people to Lakang near the Nile. It is from here that this people interacted with Pagak clan and became part of Pagak chiefdom. Marriages beteen the two clan was not abolished. When the British came to relocate them to Keyo, Duku was their leader.

The students in her school ranged from ages 10-16. Because the missionaries were white, the students were very curious and many were receptive. Many did not go home for the weekend because they wanted to be near these missionaries. Each student was given a hard bound copy of the Book of Mormon which they studied. One Saturday morning the missionaries said they were being transferred and so the students cried. One of the missionaries gave the young Sister Goodwin a triple combination set of scriptures and wrote their names in the cover. Soon her grandmother became ill, so Sister Goodwin returned back to live with her parents. She carefully protected and hid the Triple Combination in her father's shed.
Eight years passed and Sister Goodwin did not see the missionaries but about then a new family moved into her neighborhood. They were LDS she discovered because she saw that one of the children had a Book of Mormon. Soon she found the missionaries, was taught the discussions and six months later was baptized. However, because she and her family were Jehovah Witnesses, she faced major obstacles in getting baptized. And her family made it very difficult for the missionaries as well. Her parents were very hard-hearted about this and her father threatened to disown her. With a heavy heart and tears streaming down her face, she prayed fervently to receive the restored gospel. Prayers were answered and her parents and Sister Goodwin were baptized October 8, 2011. Her mother was so excited that she exclaimed "I am so happy that these young boys brought this great medicine to cure my diseases." To this Sister Goodwin added "I will also go out there to tel the people in the world."
Sister Agboyin from Nigeria - learned about the Church in 2006 from her mother's sister and husband her were members. At the age of 11 she had just come to live with them because her mom was very sick and she had lost her dad. Her father had died in an accident at sea when she was five and her mother became very ill in 2007 and died that year. Sister missionaries came to teach her and quoted from the Book of Mormon. She was not interested because at the time she was a Jehovah Witness and longed for the day when she could be a missionary like the Jehovah Witnesses were. She soon discovered that she could be a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as well, so that interested her very much. Later in 2006 she was baptized. As she grew older, she began to seek the truth about the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. She searched the Book of Mormon diligently. She read the entire book and fasted and prayed to know if it was true. "I have never known anything as well as I know that the Book of Mormon is true. I did not have a vision or a dream or learn for myself in any other way but I felt something powerful confirmed the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon. I felt an overwhelming emotion that caused me to feel pain in my heart but also feel very happy and joyous as tears fell from my eyes. At that moment I knew that I was in the right Church and for the first time in my entire life, I knew for myself that the Book fo Mormon was true and that the prophet Joseph Smith was the Prophet called of God to restore the gospel of Jesus Christ."
Sister Auma from Uganda - was a Muslim who found the Church in 2011 through the missionaries in 2011. One day as she walked home from daily prayers at the Mosque, she was approached by two missionaries who made an appointment to teach her. At her home they taught her brother and her mother. Meanwhile in a different village, her father was being taught the lessons have heard what they were learning. So she and her brother decided to be baptized and they were shortly followed by their mother. A short time later her father was baptized. Because their friends were Muslim and they had joined the Church, they were rejected by most friends. Her brother, whose name is Brian and who was baptized with her, passed away in 2013. Through the teaching of the elders, she and her family were able to overcome their pain and sorrow. She can still remember Elder Hallady and Elder Phiri and the help they gave her family and friends. "We are now peaceful in the family. I strongly believe the Church is true and the Gospel is also true."

Infinitive Compounds
As the name suggests, these compounds have in it a predicate that contains a default case for an infinitive, for instance daw (x1 wants to do/be x2 (vo)). In Gua\spi compounds, the tertau comes first, a bit like in Vietnamese, for example daw cyr has daw as the tertau, and cyr as seltau (we'll see later whether or not it's even useful to think of things as ter/sel-tau).
To get the place structure of such a compound, we just fill the vo-case of the tertau with the seltau, and also copy the x1 of the tertau into the x1 of the seltau. An example will help:
(1) ^:i \ji /daw cyr \dowu \ji
"I want to go home [to my house]."
daw = x1 wants to be/do x2 (vo)
cyr = x1 goes to x2 from x3 via x4
If we want to find out the place structure of the compound daw cyr, we do this:
daw = x1 wants to be/do x2 (vo)
cyr = x1 goes to x2 from x3 via x4
daw crw = x1 wants to go to x2 from x3 via x4
That was a very simple example, but it can get a *bit* more tricky. Sometimes it's not the x2 that has the default vo-case, but the x3 or some other case. Here's such a case (no pun intended):
(2) ^:i \ji /qma pue \snan ^jume
qma = x1 makes x2 do/be x3 (vo)
pue = x1 spreads over/into x2 from x3 via x4
snan = x1 is some sand
jume = x1 is a table
qma has the vo-case in the x3, which means that the following predicate word will be placed in that place and not in the x2. Here's what happens:
x1 makes x2 do/be x3 (vo)
x1 spreads over/into x2 from x3 via x4
x1 makes x2 spread over/into x3 from x4 via x5
So we arrive at the following translation:
(2) ^:i \ji /qma pue \snan ^jume
"I spread sand over the table." ("I make sand spread over the table")
This shows that sometimes some of the other arguments of the tertau get filled before the merged seltau place gets filled. It's always regular, however. Also I find that it's possible to mentally jump through the place structures of the component predicates, so that you don't even need to keep track of how many places the lujvo has, you just jump through the necessary tertau places, then the seltau places, which is not so hard because it's so predicable.
You can also make compounds of more than two predicate words:
(3) ^:i daw can fti \ji
"I want to become healthy."
"I want to recover."
So keep in mind this rule of thumb: infinitive + 1st tone = infinitive compound
Shared Argument Compounds
This second type of compounds is very simple. It's exactly the same as Lojban's {broda je brode}; all the arguments are shared between broda and brode. Such a compound automatically occurs when a 1st tone joins predicates whose tertau has no case for a default infinitive. So when do we want such a compound, you ask? Here are two examples:
(4) ^:i \ji /pur far \sa tiri
"I run away from the tiger."
(5) ^:i \ji /suy pne qmy \kqua
"I swim down through/into the water."
In each case it's possible to state this as seperate bridi, just like in Lojban.
(4) expands to:
\ji /pur \sa tiri x2 + \ji far x2
"I run from the tiger to x2" "I am far from the destination of my running"
"I run to far away from the tiger."
"I ran away from the tiger."
This is pretty clever. The unfilled places are also merged, and thus you get this very interesting way of saying this. Also, sa would fill the x3 of far, but it has no x3, so nothing happens.
(5) expands to:
\ji /suy \kqua + \ji pne \kqua + \ji /qmy \kqua
"I swim to water" "I penetrate that water." "I am above the water."
All of them happen at the same time, so I am above the water as I begin to penetrate it, and I'm also swimming towards it, i.e. I'm swimming down through the water, I'm plunging into the water. So when talking about downwards movement, we are using the word "above", and the same will be true for other directions; their polarity gets reversed. You could say "I swim from above" and then it's not so weird.
Even though these shared compound predicates are technically simple, I think they will require some rethinking on my part, it's a different way of thinking about certain expressions, even compared to Lojban.
Lastly, if you want to make a shared argument compound, but the tertau has an infinitive case, then you can use fe to override the infinitive-compound default. fe is like {je}, which makes sense.
So keep in mind these rules of thumb: non-infinitive + 1st tone = shared argument compound
infinitive + fe + 1st tone = shared argument compound
Transitive Predicate Compounds
Okay, this one is the most confusing for me. This type occurs when you have a transitive predicate and use the 6th tone. By transitive predicate, they mean an agentive one, in Lojban terms. Took me some time to figure out that this was the meaning they intended by "transitive", because in logic it means something entirely different.
If you use the 6th tone in a compound, it puts the seltau into the second case of the tertau, just like in the first type of compound, but here there is no infinitive, it's just an object.
I'll show you the example from the reference grammar, because I wouldn't know a good example myself:
(6) ^:i spo \bri =kqua |bir ^dri =fli
Okay, holy shit. This has some crazy nesting going on, and it's the only example they give, and it uses the 6th tone twice and not even as a selbri in one case! Yay for easy (not!) examples.
spo = x1 (vo) is possible
bir = x1 (vo) is in the past of x2 (vo)
bri = x1 breathes x2
kqua = x1 is some water
dri = x1 drives x2 to x3 from x4 via x5 (transitive)
fli = x1 flies to x2 from x3 via x4 (non-transitive / intransitive)
I think the nesting goes like this:
^:i spo
bri = kqua
bir ^ dri = fli
And to me it looks like the beer case, I mean, bir-case isn't filled at all, which means it's just a past tense marker in the middle of nowhere, okay.
Okay, "something is possible", so much is clear. Now what is bri =kqua? According to the rules, this puts kqua into bri2, so it should mean "breath water", the intended meaning is "drown". This is a selbri and not a sumti here, because spo1 is a default vo. So then, we have thus far "It is possible that someone drowns". Next up is the ominous bir-modal. There can't be anything in it because the following ^-tone ends a phrase and starts a new one on the same level. So I believe this is like {pu ku}. Maybe this is how to construct afterthought tense, or tense at all, I haven't seen any other examples of tense. Cool, interesting. Last but not least, dri =fli. Again, the 6th tone puts fli into dri2, that is "drive something that flies to x2 from ....", and here it's used as an argument of bri =kqua, so we are told who is drowning: it's the operator of the flying thing, a pilot, so to speak. Thus I arrive at the translation "Maybe the pilot drowned". The text tells me it means "Maybe the pilot already drowned". Close enough, the "already" is probably there for no reason. If you found a mistake in my explanation, please tell me! Here it is again for you:
(6) ^:i spo \bri =kqua |bir ^dri =fli
"Maybe the pilot drowned"
What happens to the remaining places of dri? Does the lujvo have 9 places or what? Not to mention that they would all be doubled, because both times we have "to x2 from x3 via x4". Hmm.
Also, I'm wondering why you can't just use the 4th tone instead of the 6th here, as in:
(7) ^:i spo \bri \kqua \ji
"Maybe I am a breather of ... OH!
Okay, so as you see, this puts kqua in bri1, and now I would have to use annoying FA to first put kqua into bri2 and then ji into bri1. Okay, so it's just a handy short-cut it seems.
So keep in mind this rule of thumb: transitive tertau + 6th tone = transitive compound
I guess a native speaker of Gua\spi wouldn't even think about it, but for me, it's still not so easy to see when I want which kind of compound. I know this was a somewhat lengthy article, but I'm happy it's out of the way now. I hope this is of some help to you out there trying to get a grasp of Gua\spi.
End of Part 8

Fucker stood me up. I'll give him a chance to redeem himself but just one.
Monthly Archives: December 2014
Oh my….
I have a date in an hour with an ex hockey player. He says he doesn't fuck until the 3rd date. We'll see about that.
no reply
So I sent the email to Mr Kansas City just before noon and he still hasn't replied. I told him I'm not coming tomorrow. When I woke up this morning I knew I really didn't want to go. I have stuff I'd need to do here. I really need to do my stuff.
decisions, decisions
So there's this very likely a great guy in Kansas City. He thinks he's already fallen for me and we haven't met yet. He pushed for me to come this weekend and I agreed. I'm having second thoughts. For one thing, I have a four day weekend and it's almost tax season. Which means it's going to be some time before I have any time off to speak of. Do I want to give my time to somebody else or do I want to keep it for myself and so some things around here? I can relax tomorrow and then work on getting my sewing room in shape and get this crazy plant repotted. Plus I don't have much laundry to do so I'll have plenty of time to do other stuff. Or just relax for that matter. Driving like that kills my back. What if I get all the way there and I'm not attracted to him? Suppose he has gained a ton of weight and doesn't look like his pic anymore? You see my dilemma.
And here's another thing, Andy already broke my heart. I don't know as if I really want it broken for somebody else that won't live here and I'm not willing to leave my life for. In spite of what people may think, I like my life. Plus there's the "Andy Obstacle" to overcome now for any other man. In spite of what he says he was nothing short of amazing, both in and out of bed. I just don't think I want less than him and I also don't want to lose what I have now. I just got divorced. I haven't even been rid of Bill for a whole year yet. I didn't fully get rid of him until after it warmed up some this last spring.
Oh and here's another thing, moving. No. I think that pretty much covers it. If I go get a drivers license with my correct address printed on it, I want to stay here until it expires. That would be a little over 4 years. That's not the longest I've lived anywhere but it sure would be nice to not move for that long and give me a chance to go thu the crap in storage and get rid of a bunch of it.
How 'bout that. I think I just talked myself out of going. I love having these discussions with myself.
glad that's over
Gawd that woman is a pain in the ass. She grunts and groans with every step she takes which really gets on my nerves. Then she has some kind of complaint about virtually everything under the sun. I'm really not kidding about that either. We sat and played Clue after dinner and of course we just talked about things in general about what everybody is doing and she managed to turn several things around and turn them into complaints.
Then my sister was there and to begin with didn't speak to me until after my Aunt showed up. Then of course my sister was just all kinds of nice. She didn't say one word to me about SfB. She also didn't ask me if I had seen my friend and why she didn't get a call back. From what I can tell my friend doesn't like my sister much because of the way she treats me and the way she has treated my mother over the last few years.
I had thought about going to the bar after I got home but I just didn't have the energy.
cabbages and kings…
I still haven't got laid. I've talked to a whole lot of men by email in the last week since I put the ad on craigslist. A huge number of them have been dismissed as soon as I saw their pic. They've been too young, too geeky fat kid, way too fat, way the hell too old, etc. There have been a couple that I would consider going out with but they haven't answered back. There was one that was pretty hot but he was too poverty stricken to take a girl out and I don't really need that.
I'm also on a biker dating web site and I'm talking to a guy now in Kansas City that I would definitely do and he's real interested too. I don't think we'll be able to get together until April though. Once tax season starts I won't have time to do much more than go to work and do laundry.
Oh and extra joy, I have to go to my mother's tomorrow. I'll probably be entirely irritated by the time I leave. She is sooooooooooo negative. I swear I've never heard anybody bitch, piss and moan the way she does. For somebody like me that's always in a good mood it *really* gets on my nerves. Especially since she bitches about the most minor, mundane things.
You'd think…
It wouldn't be all that hard for a willing woman to get laid. I put an ad on craigslist. So far I've got nerdy, geeky types in their 20s, fat singles in their 30s and 40s and a couple of old guys. I even got a few married men even though I specified single. So there were a few fairly good possibles but one of them is in Texas, one of them is too poverty stricken to go out and just wants me to come to his tiny rat hole apartment, then I finally get pics from a couple that were interesting in email but they're fat guys. Sorry, fat guys just don't turn me on and aren't going to turn me on. And I don't mean guys with a few extra pounds, that I don't mind, I mean like really fat guys. <sigh>

Romney declares victory in Nevada, cements front-runner status in GOP presidential race
LAS VEGAS (AP) ' Republican presidential front-runner Mitt Romney has declared victory in Nevada's caucuses.
He thanked Nevada voters for their confidence in him and vowed to take it all the way to the White House.
Romney's decisive win comes four days after he cruised to a double-digit victory in Florida's primary, cements his status as front-runner and leaves his rivals struggling to keep pace. Nevada was the West's first nominating contest.
The former Massachusetts governor has the advantages of cash and a strong political organization as the contest heads to states that appear friendly, including Colorado and Minnesota, which Romney won in 2008, and Michigan, where Romney grew up and his father was governor.

Questions from a Writer
Great question. I know just what you are talking about.
I do think there are writers out there that have missed the point when they hear an editor or agent say they want to see romances that are "hotter." Sure, there are lines out there that focus on the erotica in a story. No problem there. You fully know what to expect when you pick up that book. The issue you are bringing up are the authors that are really crossing the line.
So, do agents and editors pass on projects that have crossed that line? Sure! It isn't so much that the stories "make us blush" but simply the fact that the stories are something we don't acquire. In these situations, I would simply have to say the author has not done his or her research on that agent or editor.
You also brought up a point that the media is allowing people to pretty much get away with anything. While this might seem to be the case, I simply think it is nothing more than "stretching muscles" and seeing how far they can push things. We really saw this with the rise of the erotica genre several years ago. As soon as that hit, many publishers tried to steam up their stories just as much, but, if you will notice, that swing really moved back. Erotica is still there, but the steam level balanced off when the publishers found a comfortable level.
Over-all, I would simply encourage writers to add the amount of "steam" necessary for the story, the characters and the publisher you are planning on targeting. There is an appropriate level if you just pay attention. Simply adding the sex just for the sake of it will do nothing to enhance the story, and, may in fact, become a detriment to the story.
Good question.

Thank you. When I started researching to see what genre I fell into, I actually purchased some erotica to make sure I wasn't going too far. (Yeah, I think I'm okay.) It's nice to get an agent's point of view. Have a good one.ReplyDelete
Hmmm... I don't think that's the best advice a writer should be getting. Sure, if the author's career depends on a particular agent I get it, but limiting the prose of a brand new author because of an agent... Write what you want to write, write it well and find the publisher who likes what you write. I personally didn't get the answer to the question. There is a line in erotica not to cross, by all publishers, and this is the real answer most need to have.ReplyDelete

[EOD Update] Click here for the EOD update.
[225pm] Squiggle count update (ES + NQ) -
Red or blue, see what you wish to see.
[2pm] Count update (SPX) -
All you can count version -
[red] The top is in. No confirmation on the squiggles yet. The decline in senior indices look rather corrective.
[green] v of (v) up is likely in progress. Does not work for COMPQ, NDX, RUT.
[orange] ED. The decline so far could be just [A] of d. Does not work for NDX.
[blue] A regular five up to the sky from the most recent low. NDX is a concern as there's not much room to retrace with respect to the April high. However, NDX seems to have its own ideas often times (see the long term chart on the right)
[1155am] Count update (futures) -
All clear?
[827am] count update (ES) - See the second chart below.
[835am projections] current low is 1153.25, which lowers the potential target zone to 1163.75-1170.25.
[817am] Squiggle update -
The second leg of decline on IMF downgrades US growth outlook and job loss in the ADP report. See [756AM] and [730am] entry -
[756AM] Squiggle update (NQ)-
If the pullback is not a completed zigzag (the alt count), one could count a valid five-down followed by an expanded flat which suggests one more lower low. Time will tell. See [730AM] entry for the larger count.
[740AM] Overnight FX update (DX + Euro)-
A turn in the euro on Fitch's downgrade of Ireland supports DX. The proposed count suggests a bottom in DX and a top in euro (red-count). The blue count in euro shows the extension count. Perhaps at most one more up-down/down-up sequence before a trend change.
[730AM] Overnight stock update (ES + NQ) -
Most likely a fourth wave in progress, with a lower chance of a more significant high.
[745am-projections] Low of the pullback is 1055.50 at the moment, which may of may not be the end of wave iv. Based on this low, potential target zone is 1165-1172, and 1162 just above the 1160 high if it is a quick one.

This thesis presents and validates a model for designing multimode SOA-like waveguide devices. This model was used to design an active vertical coupler wavelength converter device making use of both crossgain and cross-phase modulation. The simulated output extinction ratio was over 30dB for a maximum input pump level of under 6 dBm. A multi-quantum well wafer structure was designed and ordered. Two rounds of devices were designed and multiple fabrication processes developed. These included three levels of etch depth, for which one depth was required to be correct within a small tolerance. Also, the dry plasma etch was required to create totally internally reflecting mirrors in a two step etch so much development was required for this step to keep the surface optically smooth. After the fabrication process development devices were successfully fabricated with good quality waveguides and totally internally reflecting mirrors. Characterisation of completed devices exhibit couphng and gain variation due to carrier modulation. The extinction ratio of the devices has been measured as over 30dB with varying current injection. The transmission extinction ratio has been measured as over 20dB with varying injection current. It was discovered that the fabricated devices have a low quantum efficiency (?e). This prevented high carrier concentration which made optical saturation too small to observe. Although all-optical wavelength conversion was not demonstrated, the successful modulation of the coupling due to carrier population changes by injection current has dnonstrated the operation principles. Optical saturation of the carrier density and modulation of the coupling should be achievable with a wafer design that has improved carrier confinement in the active layer. Probable solutions to all these problems have been described which should result in high quality devices.

By: Amanda Goetz, M.S., SuperSibs! Communication Program Manager
Although brothers and sisters of children with cancer do not experience the physical diagnosis of cancer, they are indeed profoundly affected by this emotional journey. The sibling struggle has been largely unsupported and unrecognized – grief from the loss of childhood as they knew it, loss of routine, affected friendships, a new definition of "normal," and the roller coaster feelings of fear, hope, loneliness, anger, abandonment, guilt, jealousy and more.
A recent research study shows that 53% of siblings reported symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress, and 27% qualified for the diagnosis of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (Alderfer et al). But there is good news. Much of this negative impact can be prevented. Research also indicates that siblings with more social support indicated significantly fewer symptoms of depression, anxiety, and fewer behavior problems than siblings with less social support. This high level of social support plays a protective role in psychological adjustment of siblings of pediatric cancer patients (Barerra).
Since 2002, SuperSibs! has worked to address this glaring need by providing vital support services to thousands of families facing pediatric cancer – to help re-define the "cancer sibling" experience and promote total family healing. Together with parents, teachers, social workers, nurses, child life specialists, religious and spiritual leaders, we can all play a crucial role in helping siblings heal.
Here are suggestions for parents to help siblings through the emotional roller coaster of cancer:
• Make certain that the siblings understand what cancer is, and the ultimate effects it might have…especially the fact that it is not contagious. Talk on an ongoing basis, as your children mature and as your family's situation changes over time. Siblings who are not informed will often depend on their imagination or hearsay from others rather than the facts. Talking to your other children can help reduce unnecessary stress, guilt and anxiety. As well, these conversations can help build trust and hope as your family faces cancer together. Caring professionals are available to help you have these important conversations with your SuperSibs! children and teens. Just ask your hospital's pediatric oncology social worker, psychologist, child life specialist or nurse to help you talk about the facts with each of your children
• Although a great deal of parents' time and energy must be focused on the sick child, siblings must also be helped to know that they are as loved now as they always were and that their value as human beings and as members of the family has neither increased nor decreased because a brother or sister has cancer. One on one, ask your other children how THEY are doing. Then listen. Your SuperSibs! children and teens have hopes, dreams, disappointments and questions as well. They want to feel valued, heard and supported. Parents, teachers and other caring friends can make a tremendous difference to remind siblings how unique and important they are… just for being who they are.
• Avoid relying on older siblings as "another parent." Over-burdening siblings with the major tasks of running the household can become overwhelming, as teen siblings also juggle school, work and their own emotional reactions to their brother or sister's treatment. Siblings want to feel needed and supportive, but not overwhelmingly so with full adult responsibilities. Reach out to friends, neighbors and extended family to take on the extra chores such as grocery shopping, meal preparation, laundry, lawn care, carpooling
and other household needs.
• Inform the siblings' teachers about what is going on at home. Many siblings spend more time with their teachers than with anyone else during the day. Teachers and counselors who are informed about what is happening in the teen or young child's life as the family battles pediatric cancer can significantly help siblings cope throughout this difficult journey and better manage school work, social relationships and activities.
Most importantly, siblings and all family members are forever changed by pediatric cancer. With ongoing comfort, care, information and coping tools, siblings can not only "survive cancer"… they can face the future with added strength, courage and hope.
SuperSibs! provides services free of charge to honor, support and recognize brothers and sisters of children with cancer. As a national nonprofit organization, SuperSibs! brings comfort and care (via mail, internet and at cancer related events) to these "shadow" siblings in the U.S. and Canada between the ages of 4-18 (including siblings who are bereaved). In addition, SuperSibs! offers college scholarships to High School Senior Siblings of children with cancer. for more information or to make a referral, go to www.supersibs.org or call 866-444-SIBS(7427).

We were out walking last Sunday and I commented to Jer that we might take in an open house or two. Just joking; I know that touring real estate at random is not one of his favorite pastimes. That's probably a gender-linked characteristic.
Lo and behold, the REX house -- Recycle Everything eXperiment -- was open for inspection. This is Shannon Quimby and partners' attempt to do a major remodel without a dumpster on site. Not only did they reuse much of the original framing lumber in the new structure, they've imaginatively repurposed everything from archaic electrical wiring components (now cabinet door pulls) to trashy old miniblinds (plant markers for the garden). She's been blogging about it for the Oregonian, and I've been following the process, so I was jazzed at the chance to see it near completion. Once I dragged Jerry inside, he was fascinated, too.
On the way home we noticed this colorful reminder: Watch for Serendipity. We hadn't been, any more than usual, but apparently it was watching for us.
Unrelatedly, my birthday dessert photo was in my camera all this time. Here's Chef Jerub's Peach Bavarian. He'd never made one before, but it turned out beautifully, of course.

Slow Motion Test Shot
Ok here's a few seconds just as a test. I think for a 3 second shot (which it will be cut to) it looks good. There are a couple of issues but for the time its on screen I don't think it will be noticed. I'm also thinking of adding some more decals to the walls but that can be a rendered still and composited on top. Took 11 hours for my mediocre PC at home to render this overnight.

if you come to my house for thanksgiving you better be ready to eat and then chase the dogs.
one pair of guests brought the most extravagant spread of appetizers - olives, fruit, pates, crackers and cheeses...
especially new york state sharp cheddar.
which napoleon p. oodle eeked and catapulted off the table using the cutting board as a fulcrum.
that's the cheese thief under the noguchi coffee table with his maw full of purloined cheddar.

Microsoft's Next Xbox May Be Based On Windows 8
For some time, gaming experts have been speculating about the release date, hardware specifications, and software capabilities associated with the next version of the Xbox video game console from Microsoft.
Now, a slip up by a Microsoft representative may have revealed that the device will be heavily integrated with the Redmond, Washington-based company's soon-to-be-released operating system (OS): Windows 8.
In a podcast with the hosts of the show Vergecast, Windows Live general manager Brian Hall listed the "new Xbox" along with a number of other products that will use or closely reflect the Windows 8 operating system.
Comment Indicates Xbox-Windows 8 Integration Likely
After referring to a new version of Hotmail called Outlook.com -- which features an interface very similar to the new one in Windows 8 -- Hall said:
"We just decided it was time to do something new...and release it right in time for the new wave of products that we have coming out with Windows 8, with the new version of Office, with the new Windows Phone and the new Xbox." (Source: ign.com)
It's worth noting, however, that Hall didn't explicitly say the new Xbox will run on Windows 8.
However, all of the products he did mention -- including Hotmail, the Office software suite, and the Windows Phone mobile platform -- have received major overhauls, with new interfaces matching the new touchscreen-friendly style of Windows 8.
That's why experts suggest it's likely the next Xbox will have undergone a similar face-lift and will feature lots of integration with the upcoming OS.
Microsoft Expected to Unveil New Xbox at E3
Hall's comments are likely to fuel interest in the development of the next Xbox (reportedly code-named "Durango"). Many experts believe the new device will receive its first official unveiling at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in June of next year. (Source: csmonitor.com)
Of course, we've heard before about Windows 8 and Xbox integration.
Last year Microsoft marketing executive Mike Delman revealed that Windows 8 would feature prominently on the company's current console, the Xbox 360, once the OS was released. Windows 8 is set for launch on October 26, 2012.

I get how you're feeling today. I do.
I was in your shoes last year.
You dread the build up to this day. With the shops putting their merchandise and stock out earlier and earlier, you've had to avoid certain aisles when you do your weekly shop.
Choosing a card for your own mother stings your eyes because when you read the words as you're making your choice you long to have those poetic phrases written in a card destined for YOU.
Taking your own mother out for lunch on Mothering Sunday is a guaranteed afternoon of suppressed emotion so you don't bring the mood down for everyone else who are enjoying themselves.
You spend the day avoiding social media so you don't have to see your newsfeed flooded with gushing posts and pictures of gifts with hashtags like #blessed #luckymum or #ilovemychildren.
You long to have your own husband or partner head out with your kid the day before to choose a sentimental card, bright bouquet of spring blooms and a thoughtful gift.
You want to be presented with breakfast in bed and be told to put your feet up for the day because this is Mother's Day, a day when father and child spend the whole day showing you how much you are appreciated for all that you do.
You want the World's Best Mum necklace/ring/Pandora charm/mug/teddy/photo frame. You don't care how tacky or cliched or mass-produced it is.
You want to be part of the club. You want to feel included.
You don't want to be patronised as a cat/dog mum anymore, as much as they are your surrogate children and you love them. You want to be respected as a REAL mum now.
I get it all. I honestly, truly do.
I was in your shoes last year. I didn't spend the day with my mum or family. I spent it at home with Dave, crying on and off all day, counting down the hours until the day was over and Monday could begin. The only time I've ever looked forward to a Monday for fuck's sake.
I knew that if I had to endure another childless Mother's Day next year I would probably get severely depressed. Or flat-out-drunk by 1pm just to cope. But Dave and I kept talking positively. Can you imagine if by this time next year we have our own little Cub in bed with us, or we're pregnant? All this suffering will be worth it won't it?
And it's true. It is worth it. I woke up this morning to a cuddle from Dave, with his hands on my 31-week bump feeling Ollie kicking away, wishing me a happy Mother's Day and bringing me breakfast in bed with a sweet card and bag of gifts from our unborn son. It was wonderful.
You never know what is around the corner in life. You may be a mum by this time next year, you may be pregnant, you may be neither of those things.
But you are still a mum. The moment you decided to open up your heart to loving a child that hasn't been created yet made you a mum.
So you may have spent today thinking "What if I'm still not a mum by next Mother's Day?"
But I say, what if you are?

Today I stumbled upon a great restored Quick firing Bofors gun (QF MK 1.2) at a veterans nursing home and had to share.
This impressive gun was designed in the 1930s by the Swedish arms manufacturer AB Bofors. It was one of the most popular medium-weight anti-aircraft systems during World War II. It was used by most of the major players in the war, indeed the Swedish firm could barely handle the orders and other nations started to build them on license. The British Army had first examined the weapon when they received a number of Polish-built examples in 1937 for testing, and it quickly became apparent that they were exceptional weapons. The British/Australian gun was known as the "QF 40 mm Mark I" (QF standing for "quick firing"), or Mark I.2 (after a minor change to the flash hider). I found the hydraulic system quite interesting. The QF MK I became relatively obsolete as an AA gun after WWII due to the speed of jet aircraft These vintage guns are still in use in some armies around the world.
