And, the present ones, tractor-trailer rigs or 18 wheelers are somewhat totally different from the Eighteen Nineties ones. Yeah, the distinctive crop of automobiles are certainly monstrosity once they criss-cross our nation roads, but they are an ultimate necessity. Some can even haul up to a whopping 800,000 kilos. Greater than 70% of all goods within the US alone arrive at their ultimate locations, courtesy of these useful automobiles. The current launch of Tata Nano has led to a brand new revolution in the nation's small automotive segment. Seeing the great preliminary response from shoppers, many other gamers in the industry are chalking out their plans to launch vehicles on this phase within the subsequent few years. Our analysis foresees a CAGR progress of around 14.5% in domestic volume gross sales of passenger autos during the forecast interval. Other segments, such as two-wheelers, multi-objective automobile and light business vehicle, are also anticipated to witness fast progress in coming years.
Not a good idea. You'll severely limit your skills and thus employ-potential. You must understand aerodynamics and be capable to accommodate the engine and other machinery; you'll need an understanding of how they work. You will need to incorporate safety features into the body as well. By the turn of the century, the U.S. was still the world's prime automaker, however in less than a decade it will endure a major decline as a devastating recession set in.

I'm glad that people like you helping out college students and answering each questions requested silly or not. A giant thank you for that. At its essence, a bike is just two wheels, a body and an engine, and never much more is required for it to be one of the best enjoyable you can have together with your clothes on. Nevertheless, when a motorcycle strips down, and goes naked, the enjoyable issue goes up by an element of 10, leaving you with a silly grin in your face.

Back to the Future will be back in the near future courtesy of Telltale Games. Next month PC and Mac gamers will get to pick up on Marty McFly and Doc Brown's exploits, and PlayStation 3 and iPad owners will get their shot a little later on. Spread across five episodes, this video game continuation of the film trilogy will follow the two main characters on a totally new adventure. For the kids out there who haven't watched the trilogy, you should know it contains crazy science, awkward hoverboard chases, time travel, and bizarre incestuous implications. It's weird, but also very much worth watching.
Quite a bit of talent is involved with the project, including the co-creator / co-writer / co-producer of the movies Bob Gale, Christopher Lloyd as the voice of Doc Brown, and of course the group at Telltale that has very clearly demonstrated skill at building entertaining episodic adventures. I know the folks here at IGN are excited to see how things turn out, and Telltale just handed over a few screenshots to give us a look at the visual style.
From early art, it was clear the game would feature a less realistic approach with the graphics. Mike Stemmle, co-designer at Telltale, commented that "The game visuals take a stylized approach – staying true to the essence of the source material, of course. The first screenshots here show how this is coming together, which we'll continue refining as we polish the game."
Without spoiling anything, Stemmle gave out a few details of how the game will progress and some of the things you'll see. "The story in the game is completely new, set several months after the events of the third movie from Marty's perspective. Of course, this is a story that involves time travel, so who knows where it'll end up? We're working with Bob Gale to make sure we're delivering an authentic experience. There'll be numerous recognizable elements of course – the Hill Valley town center, the clocktower, the DeLorean, Doc's lab, and quite a bit more. And you'll see them in ways you haven't experienced before."
Though Doc Brown and Marty are in the screens, Marty McFly is the only playable character. "Doc's too much of a force of nature to be controlled," Stemmle said.
This is an adventure game, so you can expect to collects items here and there to solve puzzles and get characters to do things. As Stemmle states, "You'll be primarily applying inventory to in-world characters and objects in the game. Marty's not much of an 'assemble three inventory items into a workable gadget' kind of guy."
Here you'll also see an example of what the conversation system will look like.
So what do you think, looking good? Ambivalent? Day dreaming of an impending turkey dinner? Let us know in the comments below.

I received my bead soup...well it's been a couple of weeks ago now...from my Bead Soup buddy, Shannon LeVart. I know, I know, I can not believe that I haven't reveal the ingredients yet either, but time just keeps slipping away from me. Poor excuse, but alas here are the goods.
A gorgeous selection of patinaed chain and beads, not one but two clasps...one that is very large and in charge...a starfish polymer focal, some yummy recycled glass beads, and some chunky macarroll beads.
There no time like the present to get started, so I'm off to the shop to stir it up a bit. Check back on July 28th for the first big reveal and see what we all created with our soup.

It has motivated me to get back into the same cardio shape I was in when I left the military a few years ago. I still want to strength train as well though. Anyone insight on implementing some longer running into a powerlifting esque plan?

Sporting Competitions and the Competitive Edge of the Supply Chain
July has been a busy month of competition with many of us watching (or attending…those lucky few!) the World Cup, Tour de France and Wimbledon. These major sporting events determine the world leader in their respective sports. These athletes gain certain advantages like the financial rewards of prize monies, big brand endorsements, fame, and adoring fans from all around the globe who now view them as "super hero" athletes, capable of "leaping tall buildings in a single bound."
What do these competitions and their winners have to do with the supply chain? In today's complex connected world, the supply chain is more and more recognized as a key source of competitive advantage and differentiation. No, these companies aren't gaining fame, prize monies or big-brand endorsements like the athletes; but they are gaining a more powerful supply chain that will enable them to get their products to market faster, more efficiently and more economically than their competition. Greater customer satisfaction, lower inventory levels and bigger profits becomes their competitive advantage.
So what is the secret to supply chain success? Twenty-first-century supply chains can give your business a competitive advantage if they create a digital transformation of the business based on a network of collaborative relationships and automated processes. The advantaged supply chain is built on an ecosystem of networked companies who interact with each other to supply key components or services that drive value through the network. The combination of supply chain visibility solutions, big data analytics, a collaborative network and cloud-based technologies are the main tools that make up the foundation for a digital supply chain. Because it is important to collaborate with suppliers and customers, these same systems need to extend to every partner in the ecosystem. When trading partners transform and conduct business with each other, the end-to-end supply chain dramatically gains value.
For process manufacturers, the ability to automate critical business processes and connect to a collaborative network of suppliers and customers can lead to competitive advantage. Elemica's QuickLink Email solution allows manufacturers to send orders to suppliers through an automated email process, which can transmit invoices and orders directly into an existing ERP system. The automated email process improves communication, increases visibility and speeds payment processing.
Using Elemica QuickLink Email, electronic purchase orders can be automatically converted to email and routed to suppliers, who view orders and confirm them directly through email. You can review these confirmations to ensure validation of the proper quantity and requested delivery date. Gone are the days of expedited freight to meet delivery requirements. Your competitive advantage comes in the form of lowered costs, happier customers and greater efficiencies.
We may not all be "super hero" athletes who compete on a world stage, but we do have the ability to become "super hero" companies that transform their business to be faster, more efficient and economically superior to their competitors.

Due to various issues, such as errors in the testing by the drug manufacturer, or the manufacturer failing to conceal the dangers to the FDA, drugs that have a dangerous and defective nature have in fact been put on the shelf. The result of this is serious injury or even death to the patients due to the side effects of the dangerous drug.
Some of the most common dangerous drugs that have been put on the market, and the side effects being linked to that particular medication are listed below. These drugs are just some of the medications that may cause serious side effects as other prescribed medications are being discovered all too frequently.
- Actos – Bladder cancer
- GranuFlo and NaturalLyte – Cardiopulmonary arrest and sudden cardiac death
- Paxil and other SSRI antidepressants – Birth defects and pulmonary hypertension
- Fosamax – Femur fractures and bone decay of the jaw

The SAFE Program administers The Lyman Fund, which is sustained by parishioner donation and directed by the school and parish, to give partial tuition assistance to families in need attending Queen of Angels School. The program is supported by a monthly collection envelope, and we conduct monthly meeting with families as needed. During the 2003 - 2004 school year, 17 families were awarded $17,714.95 in tuition assistance.
The Lyman Fund is Queen of Angels' internal financial assistance program to assist parish school families who are experiencing a temporary financial difficulty. The fund is totally financed through the donations of parishioners. Applications for assistance or tuition deferment are made on an ongoing basis (applicable for families of students grades Kindergarten through 8 only).
If a family is unable to pay their child's tuition, or is experiencing financial difficulties, contact Mrs. Julia Kelly or the SAFE Committee at the school (773-769-4211) as soon as the need arises. We realize that financial hardships, the loss of a job, a sudden illness or any other unexpected crisis can hit at any time.
A donation to the Lyman Scholarship Fund is an investment in the future of Queen of Angels Parish and School and makes the reality of a Catholic education more attainable to more families. Thank you.
Contact Tom Madden (773) 539-7510 for more information.

I've never really been one for hair curlers, I've always preferred to just use my straighteners to create a relaxed, wavy look. That is, until I tried these, the 'My Big Fat Tong' by Lee Stafford. It's amazingly ease to use, heats up quickly and is great for creating more of a retro curl look.
After blowdrying my hair I just divided it into sections and curled it around the barrel, I set the look with a bit of hairspray and the curls lasted a good few days! It's definitely a look I'll go back to again and again when I want to feel a bit dressed up!

We just mentioned that Shinzo Abe, Japan's pro-inflation candidate, appears to have won a sweeping victory in today's Japanese national elections.
The pressure he is expected to apply to the Bank of Japan to ease more has been a big cause of Yen weakness in recent weeks.
And EVERYONE has been on board the short yen trade.
The trade is the most crowded it's been since 2007.
From Nomura:
After growing shorter for 3 straight weeks, the Japanese yen set a new record for its largest net short position since July 2007 in the week ending Tuesday. Moreover, our real-time estimates indicate that investors have built on their net short JPY positions since then by close to $2bn leading into Sunday's election, and risk reversals are growing even more heavily skewed for JPY puts vs. USD calls.

Independent Nine
Opened in 2008, the Independent nine was the 3rd nine to be added to Mount Vintage Plantation Golf Club. Independent has characteristics that match the original 18 holes but is still an "Independent" nine of its own. With long sweeping fairways and water coming into play on 8 out of the 9 holes one could see why the Independent 9 could be called fun to play. It features many risk/reward holes that could make the nine very different to play each time.
Since 2009, the Independent 9 has played as one of the nines for the Annual Carolinas/Georgia Junior Golf Championship. It has been part of accolades such as "Top 30 Courses you can play in South Carolina" in 2008 and 2010 by the South Carolina Golf Course Rating Panel as well as "Number One Course in the Midlands Region for South Carolina" in 2009 and 2011.
In 2011 the 8th hole on the Independent nine was named to PGA.com's South Carolina Dream 18: Hidden Gems. This accomplishment compared the 8th hole to holes on other course such as Kiawah Island and Harbor Town Golf Club. With stacked stone and a waterfall running from the back teeing ground down to the green, one must stop and take a look at the picturesque 8th hole on Independent. The 9th hole is equally scenic but presents a very tough finishing hole. The long par 5 culminates with an uphill second and third shot to a green heavily guarded and very undulated. The front tier of the green is separated from the back tier with a four foot ridge. Golfers must make sure they have their distance correct hitting their uphill approach shot or they could end up putting it off the front. When you finish the Independent nine at Mount Vintage you leave wanting another shot.

John R. Anderson, whose human thought and cognition research has revolutionized how we learn, has been selected to receive the Association for Psychological Science's (APS) William James Lifetime Achievement Award for Basic Research. The award, APS's highest honor, recognizes Anderson's profound impact on the field of psychological science and his significant intellectual contributions to the basic science of psychology. His work combines cognitive psychology and computer science to understand how the brain works, how people learn and how computer-based instructional systems can be used as educational aids. In the 1990s, Anderson led a team that created an intelligent computer tutor to teach algebra to high school students. The program actually thought like a teenager and was so successful that a spinoff company, Carnegie Learning, developed computer tutors as a commercial product. To date, more than half a million students in 2,600 schools around the U.S. have used the tutoring software. Read more about Anderson.

Transform Constraints
A transform constraint copies a bone's world rotation, translation, scale, and/or shear to one or more other bones. This has a number of clever uses for advanced rigging. The simplest is to animate a single bone and have other bones also animate. It can also be used to simulate re-parenting a bone, eg for taking off a hat, drawing a weapon, or throwing an object. Interesting effects can be created by constraining only a subset of the transform, eg only scale or shear. A bone can be positioned automatically at any percentage of the distance between two other bones, and more.
Please note that transform constraints are not available in Spine Essential.
To use a transform constraint, at least two bones are needed: the target bone whose transform will be copied and the bone(s) to be constrained, whose transform will be adjusted. The target must not be a descendant of the constrained bones. To begin using transform constraints, select the bones to be constrained, then click
New... in the properties below the tree, choose
Transform Constraint, then choose an existing bone to be the target or click in empty space to create a new bone to be the target. The bones can be anywhere in the bone hierarchy, as long as they are not ascendants of the target bone.
Local is checked, the constrained bones' local transform is modified to match the target bone. When unchecked, the constrained bones' world transform is modified to match the target bone.
Relative is checked, the constrained bones' transform is modified by adding the target bone transform, therefore the new position is relative to the constrained bone's position before the transform constraint is applied. When unchecked, the constrained bones' world transform is modified to match the target bone, in this case the constrained bone's position before the transform constraint is applied is overwritten.
The mix sliders on the transform constraint controls how much the bones are affected by the constraint. When the mix is 0, the bone's own transform is used and the transform constraint has no effect. When the mix is 100, the bone's transform is adjusted to match the target bone's transform. A mix between 0 and 100 results in a transform between the bone's own transform and the target bone's transform.
Link sliders is checked, all the mix sliders will have the same value.
The value of the offset sliders are added to the target bone's transform values. For example, a rotate offset of 90 degrees would add 90 degrees to the target bone rotation when applying the transform constraint. This is provided for convenience, because without the offset sliders an additional bone would be required.
Match button configures the offset sliders to match the transform of the first constrained bone. Instead of adjusting each slider manually, it is often easier to use the standard tools to manipulate the transform of the first constrained bone as desired, then click
Match to set the sliders to that offset.
Changing any of the mix sliders in animate mode causes the key icon next to the transform constraint to turn orange. Clicking the key icon sets a key for the mixes, which are always keyed together.
Keying the mix is often useful to enable and disable the transform constraint during animations. The Graph can be used to apply a curve to transform constraint keys so the speed of the mix transition can be customized.

As perhaps some of you may know, I am a
scrawny weakling with embarrassingly atrocious upper body strength huge fan of minimalist travel, and the unhindered wandering it allows. I haven't checked a bag onto a flight in a decade or two, and my spine hasn't crumbled into oblivion under the weight of an immensely overloaded pack that smashes my bones into a fine powder to be whisked away shortly thereafter by a cool breeze. Not anymore, anyway. I have learned my lesson.
And yet, despite the innumerable advantages of minimalist travel, everyone seems to think I'm a crazy person. "Where's your real bag?" they'd ask, along with "I could never do that." I've given up trying to convince them by now, but I still look with bewildered confusion at their gigantic luggage, wondering what on Earth could possibly be inside. I don't even know how to pack something that big, let alone carry it.
So, after having returned just days ago from a month in Guatemala, I wanted to provide a concrete example of a streamlined packing list for backpacking through Central America, or really anywhere, with a tiny little pack that'll fit in the overhead bin on the plane, or conveniently underneath the seat in front of you.
That's me on the left:
That guy was old, too. I don't know how he did it.
I've already written about what to pack for ultralight travel, which is more about how to accomplish this, whereas this list focuses more on the specific items used, and why. Hopefully it'll provide specific details about what to include, and how this is a whole lot easier than most people think.
A minimal packing list for backpacking Central America
Here's a photo of absolutely everything I took for a month spent in Guatemala (except for a couple things I forgot to include in the photo), which included everything from jungle treks to city walks; torrential rains, to burning sunshine; and high-altitude chill, to body-temperature heat in 100% humidity. Argh, I hate humidity.
And here's the gear:
- A Tom Bihn Synapse 25, (reviewed in ridiculous detail here) which is actually supposed to be a "normal" backpack, but if you're an ultralight travel junkie, it's juuuust big enough for everything you might need, and it's quite a nice pack that I thoroughly enjoy. I was especially interested in it because of how it places the water bottle in a centered and zippered pocket, meaning it's never off balance, and can never fall out. My water bottle is also a filter, so this was a big deal to me, as I don't want it getting lost. (Normal people will likely prefer a larger pack, so check here for some favorites of mine that are still carry-on sized, and highly functional.)
- A ChicoBag Daypack 15, which is a packable backpack that stuffs down to the size of a t-shirt or two, so it can hide away in the main pack until you need it.
Basic clothing:
- 4 t-shirts, 2 of which were made of merino wool (both from Nau, a company which does a good job making travel clothes that are still fashionable), and 2 of which were polyester. Merino wool is generally better (read why here), but it's pricey, and it's nice to have at least one or two cheap shirts that you can really beat up and not feel bad ruining.
- 4 pairs of underwear, all of which were Uniqlo Airism polyester boxer briefs. I refuse to wear anything else (read why here). Certain alternatives could potentially work, but it's just such a hassle trying non-returnable undies that I just don't care to bother trying anymore, and these are great.
- 3 pairs of ankle socks, made of synthetic materials. Merino is probably a better choice, but these are what I happened to have, and they worked fine.
- 2 pairs of pants, one from Bluffworks (reviewed here), and one from Royal Robbins (another company that thinks travel clothing doesn't have to look silly). Both were made from synthetic materials, with velcro or zippered pockets so nothing falls out, while still looking quite like normal pants.
- 2 pairs of shorts, one from Columbia, and one from Royal Robbins, both with zips or velcro for safety. Both were made of synthetic materials, which allowed them to double as swimsuits.
So, if you have only 4 changes of clothes, you could travel indefinitely if you do laundry twice a week or so, even if you only wear each outfit just once (which, given the 100% humidity I was encountering, was exactly the case).
But if you bring 7 or 8 changes of clothes, you can travel indefinitely if you do laundry once a week, which I think is a good sweet spot in terms of variety, packability, and not-too-often laundry errands, which basically anyone should be able to do, and that's what I generally recommend.
All those people who say "Ah, I see, you're only traveling for a month, so you don't need much" simply don't know how laundry works.
Sweaters and jackets:
- A lightweight merino wool sweater from Ibex, known as the Shak Lite Full Zip, which I adore (though mine is an older version than the current one). Fleece works fine too.
- A super lightweight rain jacket, known as the Marmot Mica (the women's version is known as the Crystalline), which is one of the lightest rain jackets I've ever found. Check out a list of others here.
That's all the warmth I needed on this trip, but if you're going somewhere really cold, add a down jacket over the sweater. They're the absolute best for lightweight compressibility.
- 1 pair of Tyvek shoes, discussed here. Tyvek is water resistant, super breathable, and light weight, so they work nicely as travel shoes (and I only ever travel with one pair), although the particular model I had wasn't particularly comfortable for all-day wandering on concrete or cobblestones, but I expect others could be.
- 1 pair of sandals, which are the Chacos Updraft 2. These are lighter than the regular Chacos that everyone recognizes, but they use the same exact strapping system, so they're just as comfortable. All other currently available Chacos screw up the strap layout (including the original version of the Updraft) and they're awful and I hate them. Argh. But these are great. Get these if you think Chacos are awesome, but a little too heavy.
- I have a full list of toiletries here. This list is long enough as it is. Just take mini bottles of everything so you can take them on the plane with you.
Papers and stuff:
- 2 books. I'm probably going for a Kindle on the next trip, but I was being cheap.
- The Guatemala chapter of a Central America guidebook, cut apart and taped like this so it fits into a back pocket so I don't have to carry around a giant guidebook all day.
- Passport. Duh.
- Post-it Notes, because I was being too cheap for a real notebook.
- Business cards, though I didn't bother using them.
- A tiny wallet, only big enough for an ID and a credit card or two. I only carry one card with me at a time, and hide the other one somewhere else, and carry cash in a separate pocket anyway. Eggs, baskets, all that.
- 1 pen and 1 mechanical pencil. Check out JetPens for great writing utensils.
I didn't bring a money belt, because I had pants with zippered or velcro pockets, which are pretty safe, but more comfortable.
- An iPhone 5S. I upgraded to this model because it had the best iPhone camera I could get at the time (because it was going to be my only camera), and the fingerprint ID is a million times faster than typing in a passcode. Oh, and switch to T-Mobile to get free international roaming with no stupid fees (if you're primarily living in the US, that is). Really, no roaming fees.
- A phone charger. Weirdly enough, you could probably travel without one, and just make new hostel buddies by asking other people if they have one. Sneaky!
- A universal travel adapter, which wasn't necessary, since Guatemala uses North American plugs, but I had read that it sometimes uses others, so I figured I'd bring it along.
- Headphones, in a "protective case," which was a breath mints tin.
I didn't bother taking a laptop, because I'm paranoid about traveling with pricey electronics, and I figured I'd just catch up on "real" work after I got back (it was just a short trip), and since I could roam internationally on my phone at no extra charge with T-Mobile, I could handle basic communications with friends and family without visiting an internet café.
Other snazzy gear:
- A Grayl water filtration bottle, reviewed here (using the purifier unit, rather than the standard filter). This meant I could fill up from the sink or the river without worrying about silly viruses and what have you. Now I just need to figure out a better way to deal with scorpions than by stepping on them, and I'll be all set.
- Sunglasses, in a case. I am utterly blind in broad daylight, as I am apparently part vampire.
- A Scrubba manual laundry bag, reviewed here. It allows you to manually wash your clothes without having to use a dirty hostel sink, and generally gets things cleaner than a shower wash, though not necessarily faster.
- 2 energy bars, for reducing the need for pricy airport meals during transit.
- A 100% linen towel from Outlier. I will be reviewing this in more detail soon, but the short version is that it's just objectively better than any other travel towel you can possibly find, and if you can handle the price, get it. If you can't, just pick up 2 yards of linen fabric from any fabric wholesaler and take it to a tailor to sew up the edges. The reason it works so much better than a regular travel towel is that it's naturally odor-resistant, and even more absorbent, yet still packs just as small, and, shockingly, dried just as fast as a 100% polyester towel I had. I was utterly bewildered when I tested that out.
Packing cubes and other pouches:
- 1 large-ish packing cube for clothes, from Tom Bihn. This was quite useful in making the pack more functional, because the pack was a "regular" pack, rather than a lay-flat-and-open-all-the-way-around sort of pack.
- 1 bag for toiletries, known as the Tom Bihn Side Effect. It has just enough organization to keep things in line, and a detachable shoulder strap for hanging from bunk beds or whatever.
- 2 smaller organizer pouches, both from Tom Bihn; one clear-sided for liquids for stupid airport security protocols, and one solid, both of which can attach with little clippy straps to the interior of their other bags, so you don't lose them.
- 1 drawstring shoe bag, so if my shoes are dirty, nothing else gets dirty.
Things I forgot to include in the photo:
- The phone, as mentioned previously, because it took these photos.
- A tiny LED flashlight. I could have used my phone instead, but this one had a little clip so I could hang it on a t-shirt color and use it in the bathroom, kind of like a poor man's headlamp.
- A collared, button-up shirt for classy occasions. Just a cheap cotton/polyester plaid button-up. The polyester helps it stay non-wrinkly and helps it dry faster if you do a sink wash. I never wore it, because I am not a classy person. But I have hope!
- One other tiny organizational wallet-sized pouch, also from Tom Bihn.
- A photocopy of my passport, laminated with packing tape so it'll last forever. Or rather, until the date expires, and I have to make a new one.
- An S-biner, which I clipped onto a pant belt loop, to which I clipped my camera. I used one of those point-and-shoot camera wrist straps, hooked onto my phone's case. That way it couldn't fall out or get pick-pocketed without yanking me along too.
- My immeasurable sense of wonder and devilishly infectious charm, because why bother traveling without them? The world would mourn.
Alright, that's it! Here's what it all looks like when it's all folded up and stuffed away into packing cubes and other organizers, with the outfit I'd be wearing unpacked along the right:
You can start to get a sense of how small all this stuff can be once it's all packed up, and see just how easily it'll fit into a tiny bag, even though there's enough gear for traveling long-term, if you do laundry twice a week or so.
And remember, even if you bring twice as many clothes, you still don't need a pack twice as big, because you're only bringing twice as many basic clothes, rather than packing twice as many rain jackets and sandals, and so on…so look at that photo above and imagine doubling just the packing cube full of clothing and nothing else. It wouldn't be that much bigger overall, because only part of the gear list is doubled. So even if you can't possibly travel with just 25 liters of gear, you could still carry twice as much basic clothing, in a pack of maybe 35 liters, which is still well within carry-on limits.
And here's what it looks like when it's all packed up and ready to go, reflected upon what I later realized was a very poorly cleaned bathroom mirror:
I refuse to retake the photo again under cleaner conditions, because I am of such noble character that I choose to accept my self-inflicted failure and render myself unto public scorn. Or I'm just too lazy. One or the other.
But yes, that's all there is to it. A minimal quantity of items, and frequent laundering. That's the "secret."
Stuff I got for free
In the interest of full disclosure, a few of the items were graciously provided for free, for testing and review purposes. These were:
- All the Tom Bihn gear, which included the main pack, the packing cube for clothes, the hanging toiletry kit, and a couple smaller organizer pouches.
- The Bluffworks pants.
- The Grayl water filtration bottle, and the purifier unit inside.
- The Outlier linen towel.
All this gear was great, and I wouldn't have traveled with any of those items if I didn't love them.
Minor objections, and counterarguments
"But I want to look good!" is usually what people say. I've never understood this, as looking good is about the quality of clothing, not the quantity. Instead of bringing along 4 scruffy outfits like I did, just bring along 4 classy outfits, and you'll look good all day, every day. Shouldn't that be easy? Especially if it's regular clothing you just plan on throwing in a laundry machine anyway?
I actually met a girl towards the end of the trip, who was on an even longer adventure than I was, with a pack just as tiny as mine. But she brought nothing but fashionable clothing, so she looked ready for a fancy night out at all times. So not only can girls do this too, but they can look every bit as nice as they want. Just don't bring ugly clothing! Done and done.
Well, hopefully this'll help someone, even though I've never managed to convince anyone of any of these ideas at all. But somewhere, someday, I shall meet a loyal disciple, who packed one less thing than usual, and I shall rejoice.
And though I usually travel just so I can accumulate awesome travel gear, I also had lots of fun there. Here's a list of things I enjoyed in Guatemala, which you probably will too.

The residency was focused and busy today, as the day culminated in a run-through of all the projects. As we cheered our fellow residents efforts, it became clear how much work, and how many projects, developed this year in a compressed period of time. This is a credit both to the creativity of the residents, but also to their willingness to work collaboratively. Many residents had perhaps only a small role to play in a given project, but a crucial one—suggesting a way a project might unfold, solving a technical problem, or perhaps merely holding a mic boom during a shooting. We are looking forward to presenting a number of the projects in the village tomorrow, a first for Koumaria, which will be very useful for us as we prepare final versions to present back in Athens. By using many sites within the village, and between the village and the residency itself, we hope to creatively interact with this locals–both revealing their histories and their potentials as sites for creative engagement with space, place and memory.
Its our duty to expose ourselves even when we don't feel comfortable." This is, in a sense, a moral of this residency, each resident needs to expose themselves, to new ideas, new techniques, new situations, and to authentically expose who they are, what they think, to others. This year this has been very unproblematic, and everyone has taken this duty very seriously. They day was spent refining projects. A small group of residents went to Mystras, an important Byzantine site across the valley from the residency. There amidst ruined walls and buildings, numerous churches whose original ornamentation and sacred power still show forth, and fragrant vegetation, video and photos were shot, while, at the same time, we came to a deeper understanding of the history and importance of the valleys and mountains that surround us. As this blog shows, one resident, a dancer, after many days of observing and interacting with the landscape, came to an understanding, one of many possible understandings, of how her body and movements might fit in with the surroundings. After dinner we has a "show and tell" of all the projects, and it is remarkable both how many, how close to completion, and how aesthetically focused, they are. We are at the stage where many of the projects really start to reveal their potentialities, they open up and suggest numerious ways of resolving them, multiple arc they may embody. It is at this point we need to follow the advice of one resident: "The problem is, I should not think too much."
In memory of Sarantos Koutris
We learned today of the death of an elder of the local village Sellasia Sarantos Koutris, which has deeply affected the community. This has had an impact on our plans to present our projects to the villagers on Sunday, as that will be a day of mourning. We express our heartfelt condolences to the Koutris family, and this feeling has seeped into the bones of some of the projects that took place today. As a number of the projects took further shape, the video team conducted further interviews which have started to take a more conceptual/philosophical turn. As the residents now have a sense of the form all the projects are taking, the assorted aesthetics and work methods of everyone, and have developed greater familiarity with each other, conversations are taking more risks, while remaining friendly. The evening witnessed an eerie and atmospheric video shoot in the olive grove immediately in front of the residency, featuring a centrally lit space with smoke produced by burning incense serving as a container for carefully controlled movements by two dancers. This piece manages to express both our sadness at the passing of Sarantos, while simultaneously grounding this grief in the landscape that he was so attached to. We await the soundscape being composed to accompany it, to see what forms of expressiveness it may suggest. Perhaps as an act of catharsis this was the first evening that a full noise jam took place, and as the central work space reverberated with sounds simultaneously ugly and beautiful, we were all deep into the work needed to soon bring our projects of fruition. Our activities leading up to our presentation in the Sellasia this Sunday are focused on honoring Sarantos' memory.
Dawn revealing another strikingly clear and sunny day, a great day for moving a number of the technologies outdoors. After a morning video-team meeting, where more formal interviews with the residents were planned, assorted groups of residents scattered here and there. The video project at the abandoned oil processing plant completed its shoot, to everyone's satisfaction. One project that had to date been working on its concept, and developing its technology, put it to the test—the creation of a digital wind chime. Using prosthetic sensors originally designed for use by dancers, but here acting as a sort of cyborg tree branch, the sounds of wind chimes was mapped, and refined to trigger other more synthetic sounds. The idea is not to hide the technology, but to foreground it, and reveal the complexity in both the natural sounds of wind-on-metal, and the potential for the creation of new sounds that the digital domain affords us. The use of these prosthetic sensors was also employed inside the residency by dancers, and will be used in a number of the performances to come next week in Athens. Other projects took further shape—an interactive rock is taking on all the trappings of a traditional cult object, if traditional cult objects had conductivity and motion sensors! Artisanal hand drawn overhead projections, served as a backdrop for highly made-up dancers, as an emerging story-line also involving improvised music was developed for yet another multi-media project. Once the skies darkened, and the stars emerged, the olive grove in front of the residency glowed with a triangle of light, as dancers, enveloped in smoke somehow produced to blow in just the right direction, entered, danced, and left this illuminated spot, while both audio and video was recorded. We are realizing how soon we need to have our projects ready to be viewed and performed, and there is a great feeling of focused energy at the residency. Tomorrow, a long tech meeting, which will make clear both how much work has already been accomplished, and how much more there is to do!
Improvise and think about exploring your own self"—This was the motto for the first test of the interactive tunic worn by one of the dancers today. The main residency space witnessed the development of this technology, which was a melding of old crafts, sewing, embroidering, clothing design, with the new, sound mapping and synthesis. Slowly, as the day progressed more controlled and articulate sounds and movements took place, as the dancer came to embody both the costume, and the sounds it can produce. We await further developments of this project! For others, today began very early, as a 5 am wake-up call circulated to those part of a dawn video shoot involving dance with live musical improvisation, and the fading stars and slowly emerging mountain ridge. The wind was strong, and the temperature was cool, but perseverance on the part of the performers, and some audio editing magic, made the session a success. A bit later, but still in the morning, another group headed to the village at the base of the mountain for the celebration of the Greek national holiday being celebrated today, remembering the beginning of Greek involvement in WWII. Others went into the local village for a café break before returning to the residency to continue working, where the fabric speakers, with embroidered voice-coils (!), interactive tunics, and digital wind-chimes were being tested. After lunch a large number of residents returned to the abandoned olive processing factory for the first day of shooting of a movement-based video project. While all this was going on, another multi-media project is taking shape on the roof, and video-projection boxes are being built, along with assorted custom audio patches. The energy level is great, everyone is busy enjoying their projects, and accepting input and suggestions from where ever they may come from. Tonight we will see early drafts of some projects, test further emerging technologies, and talk about what is to come. The documentary crew has been shooting a massive amount of video, and has begun interviews with the residents. Things can get so busy that you forget where you are—until you look up and see that the landscape is still here!
DAY OF THE OLIVE :: The residency began this morning with a group going to the village Church service and filming/recording, and then doing the same afterwards in the village. It is the beginning of an important holiday, and it was a special service. Another group went in search of—well—an interesting sounding old olive tree. They spent a good part of the day listening to, and recording this aged tree. In the afternoon rehearsals took place for a video piece being filmed at the old village olive production factory, now slowly returning to nature, but still complete with equipment, industrial scales, and slowly rusting industrial ephemera. Our first hardship was encountered when one of our two vans decided that the track from the residency through the olive-grove and to the paved road was a bit too much for it, and it chose to scatter its own oil amongst the trees that produce a far fairer product! Assorted projects are taking more shape, with some folks writing code, designing patches, working with breadboards, sewing sensors into clothing, editing video, designing costumes, making up residents, and everything in between. A further project, not yet revealing, is taking shape on the roof of the residency, which affords one 360-degree views of the surrounding landscape. As good smells emanate from the kitchen, the residency is a hub of activity. This evening there will be a further meeting to discuss the emerging projects, a show-and-tell of bit and pieces of emerging technologies and art-works, and another electro-acoustic jam.
The Mountain! The residency woke up early today, with about 15 of us preparing to hike up one of the mountain peaks that dominate the local landscape. Driving in two vans we stopped at the village at the base of the mountain to pick up our local guide. These older men tend to the trails and watch against fires and the like, and a deeply, and justly, proud of their mountain region. As we wound up a road not for the faint of heart, new and more compelling vistas would emerge, punctuated by flocks of goats and views of isolated mountain shrines. As we approached the trail head, the guide had us stop. It was the name-day of the Saint associated with a small alpine church, and just as we arrived there, the service emerged from the church itself, and onto the surrounding small plaza. After a sung service, a variety of sweets were passed out, and we approached the trail laden with honey cakes. It was a perfect day for a mountain hike, clear and warm. As we made our way to the exposed summit, some of the residents were being slowly transformed, taking on fanciful aspect of the muses long associated with this mountain range. As we paused to work at the top, the transformation was completed, and two residents, in make-up and costume supplemented by found objects, engaged in a musical/movement dialogue under the increasingly quizzical gaze of our guide! We then returned to the village for well-earned coffees and beer, before returning to the residency. Other residents spent the day recording the sounds on the mountain, or preparing a site for a performance to take place tomorrow. After another Koumaria-style meal (large quantities of fresh food—meat—vegetarian and vegan, with wine and more), we held our daily group meeting, and it was clear that collaborations were already taking place. After dinner we had a demonstration of interactive- devices, both clothing with sensors, and prosthetic devices, which we hope to experiment with today. While live overhead animations took place, an electro-acoustic jam took form, and the day ended with everyone excited by the projects starting to take flight.
Yesterday was a travel day for all the residents, who arrived in two main groups. We awoke this morning to a clear warm sky—those who arrived last night after dark saw, for the first time, the ridge of mountains that dominate the skyline. Folks were shaking off jet lag, and taking short walks around the residency with coffee in hand. Everyone seemed amazed by the surroundings. At 11 there was a meeting of all those involved in the documentary that we are shoot this year, in celebration of the fifth year of the residency. We discussed technical matters—determined what formats to shoot in, and decided on file management and sound coordination—and also more general issues concerning the best way to document our activities. This year we have more cameras and lights than usual, in order to assist in the filming, and folks are generally excited by the prospect of a high-quality documentary being made. At noon we all met for a full meeting introducing the projects folks want to pursue, and had a free-ranging discussion with ideas bouncing back and forth across the table. Afterwards folks broke up into smaller groups, with discussions ranging from Max programing to interactive fabrics taking place. We conducted short interviews with each resident concerning their first impressions, and then made our way to the village to film and interview the locals in the coffee shop. Mean while, the completed setting up the studio for sound, and soldering irons and circuit boards were in circulation. Dinner was, as always, a treat, an all-vegetarian feast (with the addition of anchovies!) of about 8 different dishes, from a fava-bean carrot and tomato casserole, a chickpea puree, two different versions of local potatoes, a cumin-scented cabbage salad, among others. We discussed (at some length!) the logistics of tomorrows trip to the mountains, while also having to made a trip to Sparta to pick up a bag of equipment that did not make it on the same flights as its owner! The evening ended with intense, but relaxed, clusters of activity scattered throughout the house. The overall mood is positive, everyone seems both anxious to collaborate and share ideas, while also focused on the outputs we need to produce in pretty short order.

HT-R510 and DV-CP701
Built specifically for this package, the 510 receiver is a full 6.1 receiver with 100 watts to all 6 channels. While I'm not a big fan of the rainbow colored speaker connectors, it made hooking up the six speakers pretty much idiot proof. Blue to Blue, Red to red . . . you get the picture. The R510 features a solid power backing and sounds very defined and clear. Specified at 0.08% THD, the receiver was clean and didn't have any noticeable colorations.
The 510 offers five A/V inputs and two outputs, just right for your starting home theater buff. The receiver is capable of decoding any 6.1 source such as DTS-ES and DD-EX. The component video switching is progressive compatible and has two inputs and one output.
Overall, the receiver was easy to use, and the remote was easy to operate. The unit was everything I would expect at this price level and didn't have any glaring marks against it. It performed very well, and had enough power to give the provided speaker set more than they could handle.
The DVD player is a six-disc carousel changer, something nice to see at this price level. With progressive out, and digital out, it's well equipped. The DVD player delivered a nice clean picture and fast layer changes. The player also has the ability to play Kodak picture CDs and music files. Although not necessary, these are great features, and it shows that Onkyo is willing to go the extra mile for their customers.
Each speaker
has two 5.25" drivers and a 1" tweeter. They performed
very well, with clear definition in the lower octaves and warm somewhat
laid back highs. If I had one bone to pick it would have been that the
midrange should be more defined. Nevertheless, I think that the system performed higher than I
would have expected. I wouldn't put this system in a large room, as it
performs the best is a small to medium sized room. The subwoofer is more than
adequate to keep up with the rest of the system, and performs well in its
price bracket. Don't expect 18" subwoofer type
performance, but do expect it to be more than enough for modest sized

The project goal was to increase the number of job-ready STEM workers by engaging high school and college students with challenging learning materials and innovative teaching methods.
When working through the PBL Challenges, students become more prepared for the real world by working in teams to solve an authentic technological workplace problem where multiple solutions are possible. The instructor facilitates and acts as consultant as students balance technology, budget and time constraints to devise and test a solution.
The STEM PBL Project developed and implemented:
What is problem-based learning (PBL)?
Problem-based learning teaches a problem-solving model employing a cycle of problem analysis, independent research, brainstorming solutions, and testing solutions.
The STEM PBL Project (DUE #0903051) is funded by the Advanced Technological Education (ATE) program of the National Science Foundation (NSF).
The New England Board of Higher Education (NEBHE) was awarded a three-year curriculum and faculty professional development grant by the Advanced Technological Education (ATE) program of the National Science Foundation (NSF) in September 2009. The project, Problem Based Learning (PBL) for Sustainable Technology: Increasing the STEM Pipeline, aimed to increase the number of middle school and high school teachers plus two- and four-year college faculty skilled in the use of PBL in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education. The project was built upon the successes of the NSF/ATE-funded PHOTON PBL project, launched in 2006, in which eight multimedia PBL Challenges were developed and field-tested by more than 50 educators from secondary and post secondary institutions across the US.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicted the number of jobs in STEM occupations would grow 47 percent by 2010, three times the rate of all other occupations. However, according to a recent NSF report, the United States is experiencing a chronic decline in homegrown STEM talent and is increasingly dependent upon foreign scholars to fill workforce and leadership voids. One reason for declining enrollment in many science and engineering technology programs is that students are often turned off by the way STEM subjects are typically taught — with traditional classroom lectures followed by cook-book style laboratories that provide little opportunity to actively engage in creative real-world problem solving. The STEM PBL project is developing a series of multimedia industry-based Challenges designed to stimulate problem based learning in the classroom to increase student retention in science and engineering technology programs.
PBL is an instructional approach that challenges students to learn how to learn through collaborative real-world problem solving. Research shows that compared with traditional lecture-based instruction, PBL improves student motivation, critical thinking and problem-solving skills, learning retention and the ability to adapt learning to new and novel situations—critical skills for the 21st century workplace.
Key challenges in implementing PBL center on a lack of:
To address these challenges, the project:
The project team recruited more than 30 high school and college partner schools on a national level with a focus on districts that serve students from populations that are underrepresented in STEM disciplines. After field-testing of the Challenges was performed, the new curriculum continues to be disseminated to educators at high schools and colleges across the US through conference presentations, workshops, and this website.

After a long time, Tennis fans got a glimpse of Rafael Nadal the old, as the Spaniard came up with some exhilarating performance to oust Stan Wawrinka from the Shanghai Masters on Friday. Nadal defeated Wawrinka in straight sets, 6-2 and 6-1, to reach the semi finals.
It was a complete all-round performance from the Spaniard, who also served very well during the match as compared to the Swiss. If Nadal can come up with such performance further in the competition, he has a chance of clinching the title, though, other players such as Djokovic and Murray are going to be huge threats.
Nadal, who has been a major disappointment this season, pleased his fans with some solid groundstrokes from the baseline, which left the French Open champion helpless, though, one might add that Wawrinka looked tired after his three-hour long third round clash against Marin Cilic on Thursday.
With this crushing victory, Nadal must be sky high on confidence as he prepares to face France's Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the semi finals of the competition on Saturday. The Spaniard, who has set his sight on grabbing one of the elusive spots for the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals, need to collect points from such competition to feature in London for the tour finals.
Other results: Jo-Wilfried Tsonga beat Kevin Anderson 7-6 (8-6), 5-7, 6-4; Novak Djokovic beat Bernard Tomic 7-6 (8-6), 6-1; Andy Murray beat Tomas Berdych 6-1, 6-3.

Chocolate Cake
This cake is fabulous! It is super moist, just like my chocolate scratch cake…but has a lighter texture. When making chocolate cupcakes from a mix, this is the one that we use (and everyone loves them!)
***This recipe does not work as well with fondant covered cakes–it is a little too soft for the weight of the fondant.
1 box Devil's Food chocolate mix (I prefer Pillsbury)
Ingredients as listed on the box (water, eggs, and oil)
1T cocoa
1t vanilla
2T mayo
Sift mix into bowl and add ingredients according to box instructions. Add vanilla, mayo and cocoa.
Mix all ingredients on medium speed for two minutes, scraping the bowl when necessary.
Fill your greased/prepped pans. Bake at 325 until cake springs back when touched in the center.
Don't forget to wrap your warm cakes in plastic wrap and foil, and freeze for extra moist cake.

Post subject: We Lived in Bradfield Park ... As battling Aussie Family :(
Wow! There are some great and interesting stories here. :) Love them.
I've only really just found out that we used to live at Bradfield Park, after my Mum's passing almost 2 years ago... was looking through old family photos and Dad said " this is Bradfield Park were we all lived) I don't remember any of it ... I was very young.......
My family weren't migrants, we were just an Aussie battling family
Though apparently, my great great grandfather, aged 27' might have been ... he came out just after Captain cook .. he was an officer of the law (a Bobby?) Not sure if he emigrated or was posted here. ... He married and stayed for many many years after.. In their very later years (60/70's), they moved back to England (Not sure on their full story though
Apparently, I lived at Bradfield Park with my Dad, Mum, & 7 siblings (two eldest boys were Deaf / the youngest pair .. twins)
From what I can gather, from small talk conversations with my Dad... he got Polio while there .... they don't really talk much about their time back then, Dad said "it was hard and sad moments for them. a real battling time for us all"
SO Bradfield Park...
My parents have a photo of us all standing out the front of our hut (Home).
I was 'about' two years of age, so I'm guessing we lived there in and around 1961/62 as the twins were born in Oct 61 (one passed away in Aug 62
... (both are in this photo). But I'm not sure on when we arrived there (if I was born there in 1959 as my birth certificate just says Sydney
) Or when we moved out.
Then, when we did move out, it was to a housing commission area in Quakers Hill (think that too was some kind of housing refuge), then not long after (years?) we moved into a 4 bedroom commission house in Busby where my father still lives today.
Reason why i think Quakers Hill was some kind of Housing refuge is because most of the families that lived there along side us, also moved in and around the Busby/Green Valley are when we did).
So going to have to look into all this more now, Hopefully my father will give out more today than what they have been over the years. :)
Just little O'l me :)

Hello Jenny
Thank you for the interesting story of your family. My family was also in the "Housing Settlement" part of Bradfield Park (from 1959-61) although we were migrants.
There are also a couple of Bradfield Park Facebook groups which you would be welcome to join.

FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Helper: Wednesday 5/16/18
Most of Wednesday's games are scheduled during the day, leaving us with a compact five-game main slate for the evening. But for such a small slate, we have quite the cast of high-upside pitchers, with seven of the ten starters owning a strikeout rate over 28% in 2018. A few stand out from the pack, but there will be plenty to choose from in tournaments.
The Boston Red Sox haven't really come through this week, but they're once again one of tonight's top offenses, along with the Chicago Cubs and Atlanta Braves. We once again have rain threatening the East Coast, so keep an eye on the chatter this afternoon.
Our daily helper is available every day to analyze FanDuel's main slate and help give you a starting point when you're building lineups. Be sure to also incorporate our great tools into your research process. Whether you're looking for daily projections, the latest starting lineups and weather, or batting and pitching heat maps to find the best matchups -- we've got you covered! And don't forget to take a listen to The Solo Shot podcast with Jim Sannes, who breaks down the MLB daily fantasy slate each day.
On that note, let's highlight some of the top options for today's FanDuel main slate.
Pitchers to Target
High-Priced Pitchers
Chris Sale ($11,400 on FanDuel): Pitching is stacked tonight, but Chris Sale sticks out as one of the safer options against the Oakland A's. Sale has been really racking up the punchouts lately, and his season numbers are beginning to mirror last year's marks, as he's compiled a stellar 2.54 SIERA, 34.2% strikeout rate, and 4.8% walk rate. His 16.7% swinging-strike rate trails only Max Scherzer among qualified starters, and he's only allowed a 26.9% hard-hit rate. Although the Athletics have been a thorn in the side of the Red Sox this season, they only have a 3.12 implied team total, and own a 23.0% strikeout rate versus lefties. The matchup arguably slots Sale as tonight's top cash game play, but you can hardly be faulted if you opt for Scherzer instead.

A SciFi YA retelling of Moby Dick, The Beast of Cretacea contains just enough of the main themes that even kids who haven't read the original will get the gist of this. I enjoyed this cautionary tale of future Earth very much. 17-year-old Ishmael sets off from a dying Earth for life aboard a large fishing trawler on the planet Cretacea. Along with his small, diverse group of nippers, or young crewmen, Ishmael encounters pirates, mysteries about his past, the searches for his foster brother, and into the ultimate adventure of them all: attempting to capture the Great Terrafin. I loved that the crew was both male and female and that the captain was still named Ahab. There is just enough Moby Dick to keep the story linked while still being an original tale on its own. Small spoiler: the ending is not what you would expect.
I only knew Todd Strasser from The Wave and I'm now diving into reading all his books.
We checked this book out from the Chicago Public Library and read it as part of our homeschool Science lessons. I got tipped off to this book on Twitter. Join me over there for more book talk.
