Happy Tuesday everyone!! Hope your weekends were full of adventure or relaxation. Ours was full of anniversary celebrations we will fill you all in shortly but first let's revisit our recent trip to Disneyland. If you remember in one of my posts we mentioned that we saw a pretty awesome exhibit in Tomorrowland that deserved its own post, well wait no longer this is that post!
We may be a house divided on what word to use when ordering our favorite carbonated beverage (I say "pop" and hubster says "soda") but we are not a house divided on which super hero reigns supreme unlike our friends who disagree whether it's Superman or Batman (sorry, Steven between those two it is Batman hands down every time). Who is this reigning super hero: IRON MAN.
Who we were lucky enough to see in the
flesh metal.
Not only did they have this one suit, they had ALL of them! Needless to say I went a little click happy which was spurred on by the hubster constantly asking "Did you get a picture of this one?!?! How about this one?!?! Don't forget that one!!" Don't worry I didn't miss a single suit.
Seeing all these suits up close and personal, through pexiglass of courser was insanely awesome. Did I just cement my nerd status by saying that?!?! Awe who cares, you would have all pegged me as a dork sooner or later. My personal fav is the one on the right, do you think it would come in my size? Or at least in the hubster's size?
And just went it could not get any better, they had displays of some of the pieces from some of suits. Don't you just love authentic battle damage?
I may have asked hubster if I could have this painted in our future garage, I think Barney would approve.
Funnily looking back at the last picture, the hubster and I think that the man in the Mickey Ears looks a lot like my dad. Way to photobomb the awesome Iron Man mural, dad. And while we are at it, why didn't you tell us you were at Disneyland when we were?
Anyways, I hope you all agree that this exhibit deserved its own post (if you don't then you must clearly not like Iron Man which kind of makes me sad). If you could see any superhero who would it be? Better yet, if you could BE any superhero who would you want to be?

Greg Meyers
I was born and raised in the suburbs west of Philadelphia. As a kid I watched the sprawling population occupy the country, turning farms into strip malls and developments. I always sought refuge in whatever undisturbed forests I could find, splashing in creeks, picking wild raspberries, and discovering the myriad of creatures in the forest and under rocks. I never cared much for the classroom and struggled through grade school, although wildly excelling in art class and at recess! Once I was released from high school, I headed north to attend Marlboro College in southern Vermont. Avoiding math and science, I focused on pottery and other studio art courses. Exploring other outlets off campus for my curiosity of adventure, I developed a true love for whitewater kayaking and snowboarding. My love of nature grew into a true passion for horticulture and an endless fascination for the natural cycles of growing my own food. After college, the search for true wilderness and powder snow led me to the Rocky Mountains! Gathering inspiration from the endless beauty of the Teton wilderness, I am focusing on creating functional pottery to enhance everyday living and eating.

Black Irish
A NovelBook - 2013
In this explosive debut thriller by the author of Empire of Blue Water, a brilliant homicide detective returns home, where she confronts a city's dark demons and her own past while pursuing a brutal serial killer on a vengeful rampage.
Absalom "Abbie" Kearney grew up an outsider in her own hometown. Even being the adopted daughter of a revered cop couldn't keep Abbie's troubled past from making her a misfit in the working-class Irish American enclave of South Buffalo. And now, despite a Harvard degree and a police detective's badge, she still struggles to earn the respect and trust of those she's sworn to protect. But all that may change, once the killing starts.
When Jimmy Ryan's mangled corpse is found in a local church basement, this sadistic sacrilege sends a bone-deep chill through the winter-whipped city. It also seems to send a message--one that Abbie believes only the fiercely secretive citizens of the neighborhood known as "the County" understand. But in a town ruled by an old-world code of silence and secrecy, her search for answers is stonewalled at every turn, even by fellow cops. Only when Abbie finds a lead at the Gaelic Club, where war stories, gossip, and confidences flow as freely as the drink, do tongues begin to wag--with desperate warnings and dire threats. And when the killer's mysterious calling card appears on her own doorstep, the hunt takes a shocking twist into her own family's past. As the grisly murders and grim revelations multiply, Abbie wages a chilling battle of wits with a maniac who sees into her soul, and she swears to expose the County's hidden history--one bloody body at a time.
With Black Irish, Stephen Talty stakes a place beside Jo Nesbø, John Sandford, and Tana French on the cutting edge of psychological crime thrillers.
Praise for Black Irish

"Talty shows his chops when recounting [Buffalo's] Irish roots." -- Kirkus Reviews

I should have stopped reading this book. I should have just put it down. Maybe as early as discovering that Abbie Kearney was yet another dysfunctional cop that wasn't loved as a child, was transferred to somewhere else because she couldn't cut it where she was or when I saw she actually only drove a car through red lights & only did fishtails & skids. Or maybe I should have put it down when Abbie broke into a person's house, leapt on him, Shoved a gun into his mouth & a few minutes later had sex with him.
Certainly the killer was twisted & the crimes grizzly but I found it unbelievable that he had time or the means to perform the rituals he performed. I also had to question why the author was trying to imply that there were several suspects when there was really no evidence that anyone else could be doing it.
I question a man writing about a female. I don't think this author gets women. I decided that about the time that Abbie fell through a hole in the ice, got out, crawled so many feet to a hut & thin blanket & after about an hour went back to her car fishtailed back to work & never mentioned it again. Can't recommend this book.
A murder mystery, this story keeps you turning the pages. Set in Buffalo, New York with emphasis on Irish history with the IRA and British rule in Northern Ireland. I liked how the story evolved around historical facts and how troubles from times gone by can still haunt the present. I give this book three and a half stars as it strays away from your average "who done it".
This mystery novel is set in Buffalo, but some of the plot takes place on the Canadian side of the Falls too. Absalom Kearney has come home to Buffalo to look after her father, the legendary cop John Kearney, who is suffering from Alzheimer's. She has become a cop too, one every bit as good as her adoptive father. Kearney adopted her when she was just a toddler and even though she has tried to find out more about the mother who gave her up, she hasn't been able to discover anything except for the neighborhood she lived in, the East Side. She grew up in the County, the bastion of Irish Catholicism in the city. But now something is going on in the County, men are being killed, tortured in horrible ways, and no one is talking. Abby learns of a secret Gaelic Clan, the Clan na Gael, that she thinks is running a parallel investigation to her own and warning people against talking to her. But Abby is smart, quick to make connections, and determined to get to the bottom of things in this case. With a trail leading back to the unrest in Ireland, this case has a deep past and lots of twists and turns. This looks to be the first in a continuing series, and I look forward to seeing more of Abby.
Great detective story....hope he writes more! Enjoyed reading about Buffalo and the neighborhoods he describes in his book. A trip down memory lane for sure!!!
Terrific - Highly recommended hope he writes about a score more of these "Abbie" novels - Buffalo never looked so bad, or is it so good?
"Returning to the working-class Irish-Catholic community of her childhood in South Buffalo to care for her ailing policeman father, Absalom Kearney joins the police department and begins receiving cryptic messages from a twisted serial killer only to find her investigation stymied by her own colleagues. A first novel by the best-selling author of Empire of Blue Water." April 2013 Thrillers and Suspense newsletter http://www.nextreads.com/Display2.aspx?SID=5acc8fc1-4e91-4ebe-906d-f8fc5e82a8e0&N=620183
Engrossing thriller with interesting characters. Detective Abbie Kearnan learns you can go home again, except it won't be the place you remember. She returns to take care of her adoptive dad & while attempting to solve a series of murders, she ends up learning more about where she came from & the man she has called her father.

In the ten days I have been on plan, I have dropped ten pounds and hit a NEW LOW of 183! That's 95 pounds gone now. I am excited to hit the big 100 mark and then keep on going.
But there is a lesson here that I think is important. You might remember that in the last week of September I actually gained nine pounds eating a lot of carby, salty, fatty stuff. Now, this is where a lot of people get on the scale (if they have the presence of mind to weigh) and shock sets in... the horror! "Oh no! I gained x pounds! This is horrible. I am such a failure. Now I have to lose those pounds ALL OVER AGAIN!" And at this point we either go binge or get right back on track with a vengeance. The lesson isn't to be perfect and never go off plan (although kudos to you if you can do that). The lesson is, when you slip, GET BACK UP.
If you trip on the top stair, do not turn around and throw yourself down the whole flight of stairs.
If your car gets a flat tire, do not get out and slash the other 3 tires.
Just do what needs to be done. Get up and keep going. YES, you'll have to lose the same pounds over again. Oh well! Beats the alternative. Stay on plan, it WILL come off. Don't waste time being mad at yourself. Just get back to business.
One thing I have mentioned before is that on Medifast, after I am on plan for a few days food just does not call to me anymore. A cookie is like a rock on the table. "Oh, there is a cookie." No emotion, no drive to consume, no obsession. I like that. I eat 6-7 times a day, I enjoy it, I like my food, I feel satisfied. It gets easier every day and except for those times of the month with hormone swings, I don't struggle much. I still have to make wise choices. I still have to exercise.
Last night I had 5 ounces of local grass fed beef, seasoned and browned and mixed with a half cup of homemade, garden-grown tomato sauce and a cup of steamed yellow squash and mushrooms. It was so delicious and satisfying. The family had their beef and sauce over Barilla Plus whole grain/high protein spaghetti. And I made garlic bread for them too. Everyone was happy.
I am excited to see new lows coming my way. I have not weighed this little since 1997! It feels amazing.
Keep on trying. Keep getting up. You'll get there too.

This had me laughing,
"If you trip on the top stair, do not turn around and throw yourself down the whole flight of stairs.
If your car gets a flat tire, do not get out and slash the other 3 tires."
Oh the things we do :)
Glad to see you are back on track and congrats on the loss!

Delurking to say I too enjoyed the lines about tripping on the stairs and slashing the tires. And I needed to read that today. Not because I've been doing that but I have been having a hard time due to some other things and I needed to read the reinforcement of getting up and keeping on. Because you're so right, it does beat the alternative. Thanks.

I, too, LOVED the "trip on the top stair" comment. I will have to remember that on days I don't do so well.
Great job dusting yourself off :)

What a great post. It helps to be reminded that life is not a game of perfect. It is a game of the best I can do right now, today. And getting back on track is the best we can do when we've gotten off track.
I've been there myself a bit lately and for two days now I've been back on track. It feels good. Glad you're back on track too, yea Lyn!

Glad you are back on the wagon trail.. it is hard.. and the great thing is we are human with own reasons we slip.. its the getting back up that matters .. as long as you get back up then you are a winner...
- October 6, 2010 at 9:48 AM
Yes, not continuing the slip up is key. Good job on getting back on track.

Kudos on the ten pounds in ten days. I know that won't continue but it has to feel good to be solidly back on track. Can't wait for the 100 lost pictures!

Good for you on your new low!!! I will also thank you for those analogies- they are so good! I needed to hear that as I am starting on yet another weight loss journey of my own.

Congratulations on getting back on track - and 183? Woohoo!!! I, too, loved the stairs analogy. :)
- October 6, 2010 at 1:27 PM
I hope I´ll always remember that if "your car gets a flat tire, do not get out and slash the other 3 tires".
I makes sense. When I am eating out of the plan, it is always so, so hard to get back on track. Doesn´t seem to get any easier to me.
You are doing great. I am so happy for you !!!

Awesome job!! Big congrats... feels so good to lose that weight, doesn't it? After everything we go through to get it off and made the healthy changes we strive for. Food for you Lyn.. you ROCK!

- screwdestiny said...
That flat tire analogy really made me laugh! I used to do that (gotta love that all-or-nothing personality!) and it's so stupid! But I'm getting better, and it definitely looks like you are, too. Congrats on the new low!
- October 6, 2010 at 3:13 PM
Hi! I am new here. Found your blog a few days ago and I feel so inspired!!! I could only dream of getting to where you are now. Congratulations on your success. I look forward to keeping up with your blog and journey through weightloss. Please feel free to drop by my new blog sometime. I'd love a new follower.

You know I really loved these analogies: "If you trip on the top stair, do not turn around and throw yourself down the whole flight of stairs. If your car gets a flat tire, do not get out and slash the other 3 tires." It really speaks to a lifetime of making some of the same mistakes.
After a gastric bypass 7 weeks ago or so, I'm just now learning that these same tendencies can grab me no matter what. And your perfect description of the ways we trip ourselves up, couldn't be more accurate, I'll try to keep my mind on climbing the stairs and keeping my tires filled. Thanks for the wise words...

So true! I cannot tell you how may times I have thrown myself down those same set of stairs.
Congrats on finding your groove again and the loss.
- October 6, 2010 at 4:32 PM
I just found your blog. Thank you so much. I've been on a weight loss journey since 2002. I topped the scales at 304. I lost over 100 pounds (almost 120). I saw a low of 185 in 2005 or 2006 and then the weight has been creeping back up. I've been over 200 again for over 2 years. Every time I get close I screw up. But I keep working it. I keep falling down the same set of stairs. I can't seem to get my grip. But I keep trying. And I will make it back under 200 again...and soon. Congrats to you. you look great.

Let's plan some kind of internet celebration to mark your loss of 100 pounds (coming soon!). Not sure what that might look like... any ideas? This is such a big, big thing. I want to commemorate it, even if it's from cyberspace.
- October 6, 2010 at 7:24 PM

that is so sweet of you :)
I have no idea either, but you can BET we will be celebrating together in spirit!

This is so great Lyn! Congrats on getting rid of those 95lbs! May they rest in peace, never to haunt you again!
And a timely read for me...I need to get back on plan, and stop throwing myself down the whole flight of stairs!

Keep up the good work, and congrats on the 95 lbs. lost! You should be so proud! That's amazing! :)

I found you through Sundry today. And I kind of think it was a higher power at work bringing me here. I have been struggling staying on track lately, mostly hormonal stuff, but the mental tongue lashings are the same. Thank you for sharing yourself and your thoughts. I needed you today and I didn't even know it.

Yes, it's SO easy to regain weight we have lost. I know all about that!:)
Well done on hitting a new low Lyn, and thanks for yet another encouraging post.

Enhsig.dll Computer Error Solution
This module enhsig.dll is the signature for the file rsaenh.dll. The enhsig.dll and the rsaenh.dll modules provide key functions for the Microsoft Enhanced Cryptographic provider. Cryptographic Service Provider OR CSP is a software library that manages the Cryptographic Application Programming Interface or CAPI. The Cryptographic Service Provider processes the encoding and decoding functions for computer application programs for the user's strong authentication.
The Microsoft Enhanced Cryptographic Provider consists of the single dynamic link library, which is the rsaenh.dll module. The RSAENH is an enclosure of the computer system where the cryptographic modules are executed. This module enhsig.dll that acts as the signature for the rsaenh.dll runs on Microsoft Windows XP, XP SP1, and XP SP2 single user mode.
Microsoft Corporation developed RSAENH, as their Cryptographic Service Provider for their computers. The file enhsig.dll is a digital signature of Microsoft for RSAENH. Without this module, the user cannot load the RSAENH on Microsoft Windows Operating Systems. They developed this system to ensure security from any alteration of data in the system. RSAENH is used for cryptographic purposes, encrypting data, such as computer passwords.
A Cryptographic Service Provider or CSP is considered as a special type of DLL with a special type restriction upon loading in the system and in use. All Cryptographic Service Providers must have a digital sign from Microsoft Corporation in order to work from their system. Windows verify signatures when a Cryptographic Service Provider loads in the system. After being loaded in the system, Windows will periodically re-scan the Cryptographic Service Provider to identify whether any tampering has been done, either by malicious software or by the user itself trying to bypass the restriction.

DLL (Dynamic Link Library) is Microsoft's implementation of the shared library concept. Meaning there's a DLL library on your computer and each DLL can be shared among different Microsoft and third party programs. This shared library method helps your computer run faster by having fewer operations running at the same time.
When a DLL is missing or corrupt it may show an error message and programs may fail or crash.
Because DLL's are shared, one missing or corrupt DLL may affect multiple programs on your computer.

Border Patrol agent held in solitary confinement
'They act like he's Charles Manson,' father-in-law tells WND
Former U.S. Border Patrol agent Ignacio Ramos embraced his wife, Monica Ramos, two days before he was sentenced to 11 years in prison (Courtesy El Paso Times)
Imprisoned former Border Patrol agent Ignacio Ramos not only is being held in prison for trying to halt a fleeing drug smuggler, he's being held in solitary confinement treated as if he were Charles Manson, a relative told WND in an exclusive interview.
Joe Loya, Ramos' father-in-law, told WND that Ramos is being held in conditions usually reserved for extraordinarily dangerous or trouble-making inmates.
"They have Ignacio in a 6 foot by 12 foot cell," Loya told WND in a telephone interview from El Paso. "There are no bars, just a steel door, and no window. He has no television and nothing to do. He is fed in his cell and let out only for one hour after 23 hours in the cell. He is then taken to a room with a television where he is allowed to watch the TV for an hour before he is returned to solitary confinement."
Loya said his daughter met with her husband for an hour on Friday.
"Ignacio was heavily shackled," Loya said, "and he could barely hold the telephone to speak."
Loya explained that his daughter met with her husband in the prison in a room where they were separated by a glass barrier.
"It was just like Ignacio was Charlie Manson," Loya explained. "My daughter couldn't believe how her husband was being treated."
Loya told WND that the family believes that the federal prosecutor, U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton, introduced into the trial inaccurate or incomplete testimony provided by the drug dealer, Osbaldo Aldrete-Davila, as well as from other Border Patrol agents who the federal prosecutors had pressured prior to the trial.
"I can't believe how Ignacio is being treated," Loya told WND. "He has been a federal agent for years and he has been involved in many drug busts. I am convinced that the U.S. attorney has a grudge against my son-in-law and I cannot believe how mean and determined Johnny Sutton has been to see my son imprisoned for doing nothing more than trying to stop a drug smuggler he and Jose Compean believed was armed and dangerous."
Loya explained to WND that Aldrete-Davila had beaten and cut Compean in the struggle that occurred in the ditch as Aldrete-Davila was trying to escape.
"The prosecutors say that Compean was going to beat Aldrete-Davila with his shotgun. How could that be? Aldrete-Davila is over six feet tall and Compean is about five feet five inches. Compean would have been afraid that Aldrete-Davila would have taken the shotgun from him and beat him or shot him with it. The story at the trial that the prosecutors offered the jury didn't make any sense."
Loya told WND that he had sat through the entire trial. A complete transcript of the trial is not yet available and Loya told WND that the U.S. attorney's office told him that the trial transcript would cost $3 per page. "At over 3,000 pages, that means we have to come up with $9,000 just to get a copy of the transcript. And besides, it isn't available yet and the prosecutors' office can't tell us when it will be available."
Ramos and Compean are in federal prison today, after they were ordered to jail by U.S. District Court Judge Kathleen Cordone. Cordone dismissed the defense argument that the two Border Patrol were no "flight risk" while they were waiting appeal. Judge Cordone also denied Ramos and Compean's request for a new trial after there were reports that three jurors said they were coerced to vote guilty.
The White House to date has declined to intervene, and the talking points continue to stress themes articulated by Sutton, who in an exclusive interview last week with WND claimed the two agents "shot 15 times at an unarmed, fleeing man," after which the agents "decided to lie about it, cover it up, destroy the evidence, pick up all the shell casings and throw them away where we couldn't find them, destroy the crime scene and then file a false report."

And now to indulge in the internet's favorite past time, Cats. Recently, Good Cat went in to see the vet for some regularly scheduled feline maintenance.
She was quite vocal in her objections to going in the box, leaving the house, going in the car, leaving the car, and sitting in the vet's waiting room. The fuzzy brown puppy in the waiting room thought she was fascinating. But he was a very well behaved fuzzy brown puppy and just stare from across the room. Good Cat does not hiss. She cries. Short, plaintive bursts of noise that struck just the right acoustic balance to fill the entire waiting room and draw the attention of all three of the reception workers ... who were all more interested in how well the fuzzy brown puppy was handling everything. Sometimes cats can't get no love.
More vocal protests accompanied our move into the exam room. When I opened the door of the carrying box, she turned around, presenting her butt to the door. Clearly stating that while she by no stretch of the imagination did she want to be in the box to begin with, she would not be departing at the current locale. I'll get off at the next stop, thank you very much. So when the vet-tech up-ended the box, the result was a graceless but surprisingly funny rear-end first exit. More meowing. And some army crawling to the safest looking positions.
Vet examination proved that Good Cat is a Good Cat with no noticeable health problems, unlike Bad Cat who has had a bad tooth, urinary crystals and infections, eosinophilic granuloma complex, is so allergic to hard water that she'll lick the fur off her stomach if she gets too much, and last summer, got pneumonia. Oh and when she was a kitten she got a ball of infection pressing between bone and skin (there's a name for when an infection makes itself into a ball so that antibiotics don't work on it but I've forgotten it) which caused her paw to explode. Bad cat is expensive. But friendly. Everyone at the vet's office loves her.
Good Cat only ever sees vet for vaccinations.
I did however need to run by the vet my one concern about Good Cat's habits: she eats spinach. Loves it. She hears the baby spinach bag crinkle and she's there waiting next to me to see if I'll throw her a leaf which she then sniffs then hauls off to a new local to play with and eventually consume.
Of course, in fear of being considered an awful Pet Parent, I must downplay my enabling of Good Cat's spinach addiction. So I tell vet that Good Cat will steal spinach and snag dropped leaves off the floor ... which yes, she totally does, the fact that I regularly throw her a leaf is not mentioned. Vet nods. Asks if Good Cat might have a little bit of vomiting post-spinach-snag. Nope, no vom.
Vet nods again. Tells me, "If she wants to enjoy the occasional leaf then I don't see any harm in it."
Best. Vet. Line. Ever. The occasional leaf, said the same way a doctor would explain the benefits the occasional glass of red wine.
So I head home in pretty good spirits. But hey, I'm not the one that just got stuck in a little box, uncerimoniously dumped from said little box, then given a rabies vaccination in my hip. I let the cat out, take out the trash, run to the post office, come home and find Good Cat is happy but sleepy. More than willing to let me pet her. Bad Cat is under the bed.
Bad Cat is usually an attention whore. Needy. In your face. Friends with everyone. Pet me. Love me. Feed me if you must but I'd really rather you dangle a string for me to pounce on. Nope. None of that. Not today. Today she is under the bed. Try to pet her -- gone. Dangle string -- she eyes you suspiciously. Bad Cat knows where Good Cat has been and Bad Cat is waiting, waiting for her turn to be shoved in the box and carted off.
For the rest of the day she waits, waits for the other shoe to drop. Meanwhile, Good Cat gets her "occasional leaf."

Winter is Coming: US and its Allies Must Prepare a Strategy to Boost Ukraine's Energy Security
By mtracy9 on September 18, 2014 at 2:50 am
This article is a joke. The reason Ukraine will not have gas this winter is a simple one: Ukraine does not want to pay its bills. Ukraine has been a basket-case economy for several years. It's hyper-nationalist new leaders prefer to blame Ukraine's disastrous state of affairs on Russia, in an attempt to cover-up for their own incompetency, and to gain to sympathy from the West.
By On the Balcony on September 18, 2014 at 4:24 am
You are right,,,, this article is a joke –because it will not be heeded. Today's Europe will happily subsidize it's Russian gas payments with Ukrainian territory and blood. Ukraine must destroy the pipeline to help Europe overcome the energy dependence that has corrupted its soul.
By Strodensky on September 18, 2014 at 12:20 pm
Not happily subsidising Portugal or Greece but Ukraine ???! LOL !!!
By MRecordati on September 18, 2014 at 3:57 pm
Does the author even know what he is chatting about? This article is a joke.
"For these reasons, the United States and Europe must build a strategy now for buttressing Ukraine through the winter, as that is when it is most vulnerable; that is when the test from Russia will come. This must include immediate help to get through the winter, and it also must include durable promises of long-term support."

"their own incompetence"? They have been in power for less than 4 months. It was Moscow's man, Yanukovich, who brought the country to where it is now. Key ministries under Yanukovich were actually headed by (i.e. the Ministers were) Russian citizens.
By Hweits_Wulfs on September 19, 2014 at 10:46 am
The "Moscow's man" Yanukovich nearly signed an agreement with the EU and posponed it only due to the pressure from some Ukrainian oligarchs (Akhmetov, first of all)
mtrac9: To the FSB Troll who knows Russia is using every weapon it can against Ukraine, like doubling the cost of the product it was supplying ( this is called price fixing) to Cutting off Crimea from supplying the mainland, to limiting coal supply from Dombass region, it is all Russia's fault and Putin knows it. He will freeze Ukrainians to death this winter to get what he wants. He is a very cruel person and you are his evil TROLL
Ukraine should start to educate about insulating houses with plastic and other materials on TV. Very much energy can be saved by educating! Ukraine should make a list of industries that save gas by shutting them down. Start making simple biogas to be used directly for electricity and heating. China do this for 40 years! Make a taskforce to find the places first to give better insulation. Do NOT hesitate – Україна повинна почати виховувати про ізоляційних будинків з пластику та інших матеріалів на телебаченні. Дуже багато енергії можуть бути збережені шляхом виховання! Україна повинна зробити список галузей, які економлять газ, закриваючи їх. Почніть робити прості біогазу для використання безпосередньо на електроенергію та опалення. Китай цього протягом 40 років! Зробіть цільову групу, щоб знайти місця, першим, хто кращу ізоляцію. Не соромтеся – Jacob Schønberg, Danish citizen in Ukraine
By Andrew Holland on September 25, 2014 at 11:56 am
A good idea – energy efficiency is often the "low-hanging fruit" – and I think that could go a long way. Probably not going to get the country through this winter, but it could help…
Conservation would provide the biggest bang for the hryvnya for the winter needs. Also, as you post a great time to improve infrastructure if economically possible. This will save more valuable gas resources for industry and keep the economy going. Heat homes with biomass a good low cost solution. The country has good coal resources. Again, I complain the U.S. should maximize the combined cycle clean coal power plant technology per needs, such as Ukraine. The world community is unstable per dependance on oil and natural gas fuel supply. Europe found this out the hard way, lets not make the same mistake within U.S. borders, since we have gigantic supplies of the coal fuel. Ukraine does have one such plant under construction and Japan is working with them to update 40 year old coal plants to more efficiency, but per economizing coal use and environmental benefits nothing appears close to gasification process of coal and powering combined cycles of hot air turbine and steam turbine. They could throw in some biio-mass within the mix for synergistic benefits of low pollution and cost. Coal and biofuel appear to be the best energy source for Ukraine. They would win as well in near future with corn or starch ethanol as a quick mature technology to offset needs of transportation fuel. Lot's of proven knowledge and resources to make that happen quickly. The biomass and biofuel industries a good tool to maximize low investment benefits per quick results of economy and job creation. OIl and gas exploration a good thing, but requires a lot of time and money. The country has severe economic problems, not a good time for them to increase imports costs.
By Forrest on September 18, 2014 at 10:01 am
They produce 50% of their power from nuclear and work with GE for fuel and technology. Coal is 2rd and natural gas 3rd. They are very fortunate indeed for foresight of power diversity. Also, estimates of 120 TWh/year biomass fuel available. Shell oil is working with Ukraine for exploration of fossil fuel for energy independence. These stats per Wikipedia.
The country is 3rd biggest producer of corn crop. They have fertile land mass, that gained them the attribute title of "bread basket of Europe". It's the largest country in Europe. They have a wonderful geographic position to export to Europe biomass and ethanol. Europe pays premium for these products per U.S. and Canadian experience. The above advice looks better per their stats.
By Andrew Holland on September 25, 2014 at 12:01 pm
I wonder if nuclear is really a good option to expand in a country as indebted and poor as Ukraine. Certainly, though, you want to keep the ones running now open, so you don't have to replace that capacity.
And – yes – Ukraine's "black earth" really is the best soil in Europe – perhaps the world. They should be doing more to take advantage of that as an export.
By Andrew Holland on September 25, 2014 at 11:58 am
Forrest – agree that conservation/efficiency would be best to help Ukraine – if anyone's spent any time in soviet-built housing, you'll understand how a place can be both cold and drafty and overheated at the same time! I'm not sure any of it will help them get through this winter, but it will certainly help down the line.

Jerryd Bayless Enjoying a Productive Summer
July 24, 2008
TUCSON, Ariz. - Less than month after being the 11th overall selection in the 2008 National Basketball Association draft, Jerryd Bayless has been a very productive player.
Bayless, a 6-foot-3, 200-pound guard, was a first round pick of the Indiana Pacers in the draft and had his rights traded to the Portland Trail Blazers. He averaged 19.7 points, 2.7 rebounds and 4.0 assists in 30 games for the Wildcats as a freshman in 2007-08. Bayless was a second team All-America selection Sports Illustrated.
Since joining the Trail Blazers Bayless has taken off. He led the Las Vegas Summer League in scoring at 29.8 points per game to go with 4.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.2 steals per game averages. Bayless shot 48 percent from the field and 88 percent from the free throw line. He also ranked fifth in the summer league in minutes played per game (34.0). He was named the league Most Valuable Player.
Following his performances in Las Vegas, Bayless was invited to join the USA Basketball Select Team for its final days of workouts against the U.S. Senior National Team before that squad departs for the Beijing Olympics.
Bayless was among 15 players named by USA Basketball to participate, and he joined on the squad by former Wildcat Andre Iguodala.

The Journal of Philosophy, Science & Law: Disability Special Issue
Volume 14, July 2, 2014, pages 1-3
full text version
Expanding Opportunities for People with Disabilities: Promoting a More Cautious Approach
Yvette Pearson*
* Chair, Department of Philosophy & Religious Studies, Old Dominion University
The articles in this special issue on disability demonstrate the importance of attending closely to the experiences of individuals with disabilities in making decisions whether to use medical, psychological, or social interventions that may affect the person's identity and alter subsequent experiences. Though each article focuses on the problems or merits of different types of interventions—cochlear implants, surrogate partner therapy (SPT), and growth attenuation—all of the articles draw the reader's attention to the need to reconsider the medical model of disability and attend to the potentially corrective value of the social (or psychosocial) model of disability. The latter model of disability emphasizes the impact of prevailing social attitudes and institutions on the welfare of individuals with disabilities, while the former, with its tendency to pathologize deviations from typical species function, seems to provide a more "deterministic" and often myopic lens through which to view disability.

Aston Martin Vantage V12 breaks cover
* 510bhp 6.0-litre V12 engine * 0-62mph in 4.2sec * Estimated 140,000 price...
Here is the Aston Martin Vantage V12, which the company has described as the most potent car in its 95-year history.
Based on the V8 Vantage, the V12 will be powered by a 510bhp 6.0-litre engine with 420lb ft of pulling power. It has a top speed of 190mph and blasts from 0-62mph in 4.2 seconds.
Aston Martin says the car has been honed for supreme driving performance, and features several race-developed materials and components. As a result, it is only about 50kg heavier than the V8 Vantage, despite having a substantially heavier engine.
However, the car is not without luxuries: electrically adjustable seats, electric mirrors, cruise control and Bluetooth are all standard.
Production will be limited to 300-500 cars a year, with the V12 going on sale in May with the first vehicles to be delivered in the autumn.
It is expected to cost around 140,000, although full details will be confirmed when the car is unveiled at the Geneva motor show in March.

Google Circles Not Announced at SXSW
The web was on fire with rumors that Google would be launching a social networking platform called Circles at SXSW. They came mostly from a post by ReadWriteWeb, which talked about the launch and some of the features to expect. Of course, no such announcement happened. According to TechCrunch, social is just too big a factor for Google to announce via a splashy press event. While Google Circles may be a reality, we probably won't see a big announcement for it. Google will work in the background to add features to their existing properties which will serve to tie everything together.
Make Twitter More Secure with HTTPS
Twitter has added a new feature that will make your experience slightly more secure. You've been able to use Twitter over a secure connection for some time now by simply going to https://twitter.com instead of just using "http." Now, Twitter has added an "Always Use HTTPS" option so that you no longer have to think about it. This is especially important when using an unsecured WiFi connection. HTTPS will now automatically be used, regardless of your settings, when you're logging into Twitter and when using the iPad and iPhone mobile apps. You can find the new feature in your settings.

JAMMU, MARCH. 14: Prof.Bhim Singh, Chief Patron, J&K National Panthers Party while addressing a press conference in Jammu Ashok at Jammu urged Shri Pranab Mukherjee, the President of India to invoke Section 92 of J&K Constitution without further delay so that Governor Rule is imposed in the State of J&K which has been on fire for nearly 14 months. Prof.Bhim Singh said that Governor is the only solution. The State Assembly needs to be dissolved without any delay and fresh elections should be held under Governor Rule.
Addressing the press conference, Prof.Bhim Singh said that Flames in Kashmir can only be silenced when J&K is reorganized by establishing a State of Jammu Pradesh as well as in Kashmir Ghati (Kashmir Pradesh). The people of Ladakh region should have option to remain with Kashmir or Jammu or under the control of the Union as Union Territory.
Prof.Bhim Singh expressed surprise that communal emotions are being put on flames by the ruling clique (PDP and BJP) only to surcharge the whole atmosphere on the national level with sectarian flames.
Prof.Bhim Singh said that the recent Assembly elections in U.P. and Uttarakhand leave no doubt that Modi and company are adamant to establish a dictatorial state in the country as has been done during the recent elections. Prof.Bhim Singh said that the voting machines under Modi rule have threatened the roots of democracy in the country and the only way out is that elections in the country should be held by independent machinery and institution through ballot without the use of dubious electoral machines which can be managed, controlled or activated to the wishes and dictates of the ruling cliques as it happened in other states including in Jammu and Kashmir under the Congress rule.
Prof.Bhim Singh said that J&K National Panthers Party shall be holding 34th Foundation Anniversary on 23rd March, 2017 in Jammu with a clear mission that tri-colour flag should unfurl from Kanyakumari to Kashmir and there shall be one Constitution with Fundamental Rights from Kashmir to Kanyakumari. The Panthers Party stands for urgent amendment in the Constitution of India so that Article 370 is amended so that there shall be one India, one Flag and one Constitution from Kanyakumari to Kashmir.

Winter melon 冬瓜 (dōng guā)
A large gourd, about the size of a watermelon, with a dark green skin and white flesh, it has a light flavor similar to zucchini and is often sliced and added to soups and stir-fries. The outside of the melons can accumulate a white wax-like coating, which gives them their alternate name: wax gourd. They can be bought year-round at Asian grocery stores.

I'm having some frustrating issues with a tall email design in Outlook 2007. I had this problem with a previous email, where a tall image was being misaligned in a table cell. The solution was to cut it up into smaller images at the time. I still had no idea why Outlook was chopping the image up by itself, but this seemed to solve it.
Come phase two with an even taller set of images and now after trying many, many solutions, I am finally stumped. My closest rendering option was to nest a table and distribute mostly evenly sized and spaced images. Even now, there are a couple of random gaps where there shouldn't be. Every single other email client tests pretty much perfectly except for the wonderful Word rendering engine in Outlook 2007.
Can anyone suggest why 2007 would be inserting this whitespace seemingly at random?
Published results here.
Many thanks.

I'm having some frustrating issues with a tall email design in Outlook 2007
That pretty much sums up developing HTML emails for OL2007 ;)
When I had this problem in OL2007 it was because OL2007 was giving td elements that only contained an image a font-size. So each td could only shrink to a minimum size hence the blank gaps.
You can probably fix it by adding the following inline style to all tds that only contain images:
If that alone doesn't resolve it, try adding
line-height:0; to it as well
- Thanks for the tip, but it didn't help. It doesn't seem to be adding the whitespace to every image, but only a couple. This is very strange, since all of the images have the exact same associated markup. I can only guess that Outlook is adding some sort of Word-related page-break markup or something along those lines. This only seems to happen with tall elements or images.
- that is very strange, I guess this is different to the problem I had...I certainly wouldn't put it past OL07 to add arbitrary garbage at random intervals. Whoever made the choice to downgrade OL07 to a worse rendering engine than previous versions needs to be repeatedly poked with a sharp stick ;)
I can't exactly point out what the incompatibilities are, but there are many NO-NOs for Outlook 2007. One of which is "background images" do not work, and you have some in your email HTML.
Take a look at this useful matrix and see what are the stuff the nasty Outlook 2007 rendering engine doesn't support.
Guide to CSS support in email clients
- Thanks for the answer. I'm familiar with that article and I'm not exactly new to designing HTML emails. As far as I know, background images simply don't render in incompatible email clients, but they don't break the email. I just use a background colour as a fallback for any clients which don't render them. I have tested this email without the background images and the image problem I described remains.

Expectations: Durable goods orders are expected to rise 2.2% on a month-over-month basis in December. Ex-transportation they're expected to rise 0.7% month-over-month.
Analysis: Investors look to to durable goods numbers because they show new orders placed with domestic manufacturers and indicate demand for everything from household goods like refrigerators, to cars, and industrial machinery. Increased expenditures on investment goods also form a major component of the economy.

How long does one have to be a practicing physician before it becomes obvious that a clinical career isn't the right line of work to be in?
I guess it depends.
In Mike McLaughlin MD's case, it didn't take long. This highly-trained plastic and hand surgeon suspected during even his residency that clinical practice wasn't his ideal job. Nevertheless, he persisted by going into practice long enough to confirm that his future professional happiness depended on quitting clinical practice.
Guided by a relative who served as a business mentor, he began the 2-year long quest to find an alternative non-clinical career that preferably encompassed at least some of his hard-earned medical knowledge.
He explored his passion for writing by investigating the field of medical communications ... and a new non-clinical career was born.
Several physician executive jobs later, his own successful medical communications business Peloton Advantage was born, co-founded with a colleague. In addition he donates his time to his generous sideline passion, the physician career networking site, Physician Renaissance Network (PRN). He has also found time to use his writing skills by penning a part personal memoir-part self help book, "Do You Feel Like You Wasted All That Training? Questions from Doctors Considering a Career Change".

For a Decent Summer Legal Show, Check Out Suits
June 26, 2011
Suits, the new USA summer show about a guy passing himself off as a lawyer, had me worried at the beginning. The very first scene was a real lawyer lying to a client to get a deal closed. That�s a huge, disbarrable no-no. The writers redeemed themselves when the characters discussed how interested the Bar would be in that incident. Two characters threatened each other with mutually assured destruction if one reported the other. I was so happy. Maybe I�m easily amused.
Then they had a sexual harassment case as our hero�s first case, and I cringed. Shows about my area of practice are always the most difficult for me to watch because they get so much wrong. But Suits did a really nice job. Sure, they took some license, but not too much. They got the concept of . . . More
Franklin & Bash Get the Law (Mostly) Right
June 14, 2011
I haven�t decided whether or not I�ll be watching Franklin & Bash on a regular basis. I do try to give the latest legal dramas and comedies a chance, and this one is a rare summer legal comedy. It stars Mark-Paul Gosselaar, who I remember fondly from the old Saved By the Bell series. He�s all grown up and playing a lawyer along with Breckin Meyer. They are two outlandish ambulance-chasing lawyers who get convinced by senior partner Malcolm McDowell (one of my favorite actors) to come work for a big fancy law firm.
The first scene showed one of the bad boys of law disobeying a judge�s order. It made me very happy that this landed him in jail (briefly) for contempt. That�s exactly what should happen.
The big plot line showed. . .

Writing About Juries? Don�t Make These Gaffes
May 24, 2011
I want to nitpick one of my favorite shows, The Good Wife, again. A couple gaffes with jury scenes really threw me out of the moment recently. It seems that most people who write about juries have never actually seen jury selection or how bailiffs handle juries, because I see lots of stuff that�s flat out wrong when I read or watch jury scenes. Here are two things not to do:
Jury selection: When the lawyers do jury selection, they have the opportunity to ask questions of jurors. Then they get to agree with the juror being seated or challenge the juror. What will (probably � I won�t say never) not happen is that the lawyers object to jurors in front o of the jury pool. This happens after the questions (voir dire) are asked and the jury is sent outside. Prospective jurors are sent to the hallway or a room away from the lawyers and judge.
Then the judge will go through the list, something like this:

Looks Like We Need Another President: The Event, and What Really Happens When the President is Incapacitated
May 4, 2011
I was surprised when I watched this week�s episode of The Event and saw them swearing in the Vice President to be President. The plot is that the aliens who have infested the planet poisoned the President, intending to kill him. He�s in a coma. So the Vice President and Cabinet met to have him declared incapacitated. Then the Vice President was sworn in as President. I�m thinking, huh? He�s not actually the President yet. How can they swear him in as President? What gives?
So I looked it up. The writers got it half right. The 25th Amendment of the Constitution says:

If You�re Writing About Sunken Treasure Hunting, You�re Using Admiralty Law
April 27, 2011
I got really excited about this article because when I teach about using the law in writing I always challenge people to tell me why admiralty law can be pretty exciting. They look at me with blank stares, because it sounds deadly dull, doesn�t it? But admiralty is more than cruise ship accidents. That�s because admiralty law covers anyone who finds or is hunting for sunken treasure.
In the article, a group of treasure hunters called the Black Swan Project found over $500 million in treasure on the ocean floor. Most writers assume that the law is �finders keepers� but it�s way more complicated than that. In this case, Spain made a claim on the treasure because they were the original ship owners. Peru says Spain stole the treasure and they want it. Now a researcher whose research was used to find the ship has made a claim on the loot too. So far, the courts are letting him proceed with his claim.

The Good Wife, Emotional Distress and Employees
April 6, 2011
Last night�s episode of The Good Wife was called �Wrongful Termination.� (Yes, I'm writing about The Good Wife again. Sorry, but it's a great show). I cringed at the title because Illinois, like every state in the nation but one, is an at-will state, meaning employers can fire or discipline employees for any reason or no reason at all. So my expectations were low.
I got a pleasant surprise.
It�s still not clear to me what the lawyers� theory of the case was, but the best I can decipher from the arguments is that they were claiming the tort called �intentional infliction of emotional distress.� Illinois, unlike my home state of Florida, does allow this type of case to be brought against employers.
The facts were that

The Good Wife Doesn't Know Much About Mediation
March 23, 2011
Why the heck can�t TV shows get mediation right? I mean, if a comedy like The Wedding Crashers can do it, why not courtroom dramas? Fairly Legal has made a mockery of what mediation is about, but I expect USA shows to be silly. Now comes The Good Wife, and I usually expect better from them. I�m a mediator, and this kind of error hurts my feelings because the writers clearly don�t give a hoot about getting mediation right. Mediation is suddenly popular with writers, so why won�t they find out what really happens in a mediation session?

Here�s just some of the stuff I keep hearing on TV about mediation that�s glaringly stupid.

The Suit Against Jimmy Carter: Why Writers And Publishers Should Be Up In Arms
March 5, 2011
I covered the suit filed against former President Jimmy Carter and Simon & Schuster regarding Carter�s 2006 book Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid a couple weeks ago on The Debriefer. Literary agent Peter Cox and I spoke about the dangers to writers and the publishing industry if the case succeeds. The more I think about this case, the more it bothers me, so it bears more analysis.
The suit is by some readers who claim they bought the book and felt it was full of inaccuracies. They sued for breach of contract, unjust enrichment, negligent misrepresentation , intentional misrepresentation and consumer protection act violations. The argument they make is that the publisher and author advertised the book as nonfiction. They claim they were misled into buying the book based on this false representation.

The Good Wife, The Right of Publicity, And Why Writers Should Be Scared
February 27, 2011
A recent episode of The Good Wife, a consistently good legal drama, focused on what I think is one of the most important issues affecting the writing and publishing industry today: the right of publicity. In the show, a character similar to Mark Zuckerberg didn�t like the way he was portrayed in a movie similar to The Social Network. He sued for defamation. Enter our hero law firm.
The lawyers realized pretty quickly that this client was never going to win a defamation case. He was a public figure, like it or not, and therefore the First Amendment squashed the defamation claim pretty cleanly. They�d have to prove actual malice, and that�s really hard to prove.
Then they got an idea. An awful idea. The lawyers got a wonderful awful idea. They�d sue under the right of publicity. How did they do it? And why is the right of publicity such a danger to writers? Let me explain.

Fairly Legal Says You Can�t Copyright a Recipe � They�re Only Partly Right
February 21, 2011
I�ve found some peace with the show Fairly Legal, about a woman they call a mediator who does nothing that even vaguely resembles mediation. The way I�ve done it (because I still like the characters and the legal issues) is that I just keep telling myself she�s something new � a unique entity in the law.
In my mind, I call her a Conciliator. The weird part is, I think there�s room in the legal system for someone like this. It would be sort of a mediator, sort of an arbitrator, and sort of an investigator. There�s nothing like this now, and I suspect that this show might spark such an entity into being. She�s closest to an arbitrator, because arbitrators can investigate to some extent and in a very limited way. So I�m not writing to complain about how they went right off a cliff on the whole mediator concept.
Instead, I�m writing about a recent show involving a barbecue sauce recipe. The conciliator (I absolutely refuse to call her a mediator) made this statement: �You can�t copyright a recipe.� I shook my head, first because if she were a mediator she couldn�t give legal advice (okay, I�m going to complain a little), but second because she was wrong.
It�s true that you can�t copyright a list of ingredients. But you can absolutely copyright ...more

Working noise but no more sign of life?
Hey Guys,
Nearly three weeks ago I (shame on me) spilled some beer over my MacBook and it instantly shut down. I removed the charger, put it on the side and let all the fluid run out. Waiting one day, I opened it and cleaned everything I could see, which was not that much. Lucky me it worked again and since then I had no problems at all, although I was using high performance (gaming, hd movies etc). Two days ago, I ve seen that it was shut down, however I did not do it. I tried to restart it but nothing happened. I just got a black screen, nothing else, the small white indicator at the right front shows a permanent light, i can hear the hd and the fan. The keyboard shows no sign of life either, as the CAPSLOCK does not turn green when I press it. Since then my mac started once for a couple minutes and than without warning shuts down. Everytime I boot it, I guess I hear the same noise as when it restart itself but nothing more. I do not know what I can do and what problem I have, so I am desperate and hope any one out there can help me.
Thanks in advance

New Bill Cosby Pudding Ad (Picture)
From the awesome mind of Mooski Sidekick :
Here's a delightful treat someone once made for an office Christmas party:
A gelatin mold should be made with Knox Unflavored Gelatin and red food coloring. One would think that a flavorless food would not be at all difficult to swallow, but believe me, from the looks of people who inserted cold masses of gelatinous glop into a mouth that was expecting sweets, the experience is unexplainably horrifying! Some claimed to be nauseated by the feel of it; others politely swallowed.

WTF!!!!!!!! Facebook
A few days ago , Facebook decided to shut down WTF Magazine Facebook page without a word of warning or anything. WTF Magazine was a super popular page of memes and popular videos on Facebook for the last 4 years and had 2.1 million + fans and was founded by Jason Fyk WTF magazine's CEO and Founder. Nothing was said to anybody on the reason Facebook decided to shut down the page, they always played by the rules of Facebook and still got shut down. WTF Magazine had a huge reach and was ranked number 5 in all pages on Facebook, and still Facebook decided to shut it down. WTF Magazine is a multi-million dollar social media based entertainment company which employed dozens of people , who are being helped out by Jason Fyk until WTF Magazine can rebuild. It is really scary that we are all at the mercy of the almighty Facebook. At any drop of a hat or if a Facebook moderator has a bad day , all of our work on Facebook could disappear fast and that is scary. I'm sure WTF Magazine will rebuild , and be better than ever , but Facebook should have a way where at least the page admins are told why their page was taken down. Get it together Facebook and good luck WTF Magazine in rebuilding, we are behind you one million percent , if there is anybody and any company that can get out of this and rebuild bigger and better it's Jason Fyk and WTF Magazine . Here is the link to the new WTF Magazine page and their website :

Sparklin' Star
Less Is More - Sparkle
Just Add Ink - Star
Stampin For The Weekend - Feeling Festive
(excuse the photo quality, the lens on my DSLR is broken so it's back to the point and press temporarily)
I created a star frame with Xcut dies on red card and heat embossed it with red sparkly EP, not satisfied with the resulting sparkle I further added a bucketful of red glitter....man, did it get everywhere! A Hero Art sentiment and a gingham bow completed this simple card. I mentioned in a previous post that I'm not feeling the crafting love this year and feel totally uninspired. Not that it's just cards I can't get excited about you understand, I've got a Christmas 'do' to attend next week with my work colleagues and I'm trying to muster up some enthusiasm about that too, blimey I sound like a right old misery don't I? Is anyone else feeling a distinct lack of Christmas cheer?
I'm going to bog off now as I've nothing cheerful to say and I really don't want to become one of those blog whingers. A humungous pile of ironing and the Strictly results show await. Have a good week folks.

I never feel particularly Christmassy this early - it's only Dec 1st! I get a bit more into it nearer the day, when most of the hard work is done, but at this stage? Nah, it's a big old pain in the bum! That said, your card is very pretty, as always. Tell me about the glitter - my heart sinks when the kids want to use it...

Moan all you like I say! xxxReplyDelete
God, I hate Xmas. Agree wholeheartedly with Vix's comments! Lovely card though (the photo quality looks fine to me). I like a bit of glitter but I'm so glad that my daughter doesn't bother with it anymore (too busy playing on her phone) coz the last time she did, we had glitter all over the sofa.

Felt a sprinkle of Christmas cheer after the fair, but that seems to have worn off! Don't know when I'm going to get round to cards - had talked about making a few with the kids after going a bit card kit crazy in a craft shop the other day.

Earlier this year, during European health and safety week, I was invited to take part in a roundtable discussion with senior figures from across the construction industry. Learning from the outstanding performance on the Olympic big build is still a major goal for significant projects in construction, so it was really good to see the London 2012 legacy feature prominently.
One of the key issues debated was the crucial role that first line supervisors play in creating the right health and safety culture.
I've heard many senior people say that getting the safety culture right is about what happens when they are not there. That's when the leadership of those first line supervisors becomes so critical.
The round table discussion reminded me of my own experience and some of the people I worked with in industry. They were pipefitters and electricians one day and promoted to first line management the next. It's a really difficult step up. The transition from being one of the lads to being the front line face of management can be tough. They're almost bound to face accusations of becoming "one of them" rather than "one of us". But those who make the transition successfully can have a huge impact on the safety culture.
Good first line supervisors are able to get the message across to their teams in the right way. They know how to connect with each member of their team and what really motivates each individual.
The Olympics Big Build success was founded on many things. But training and enabling first line supervisors to be real leaders was a very significant move, which made a huge contribution to creating the right culture and delivering performance. If you want proof of that watch the ODA's Learning Legacy video and listen to members of the workforce and first line supervisors talking about their personal pride in what they achieved.
Supervision is a vital role to get right to have an impact on health and safety. Not as something we do when the boss is looking, but part of how we do the job - all of the time. We talk a lot about the need for leadership in health and safety from the top of organisations but first line supervisors are leaders too and very important ones. They need training and support to be safety leaders.
I'm not arguing for them to become experts in health and safety law, it's much more about interpersonal skills and being able to feel comfortable talking to their workmates about how important it is for them to stop and think about doing the job safely - and going home to their partners and families at the end of every shift.
