"We are in the midst of millions and millions of suns-we are in the jewel house of the maker, and our soul mounts up, up to that wonderful creator, and we adore the hand that scattered the jewels of heaven so lavishly in this one vast region."
Edward Emerson Barnard.
There is just something about viewing our Milky Way Galaxy that invokes a sense of awe, so majestic, so huge. What can I possibly say or put into words that hasn't been already said or googled.
There are people in this world that aren't muddied by information, that don't have high speed Internet access, people such as the contemporary hunter gathers, "!Kung Bushmen", they actually believe the Milky Way holds up the sky.... if not for the Milky Way surely the stars would come crashing down to Earth, hence they call it "The Backbone Of Night", wow, to be a bushguy and enjoy stuff for just stuff, mind you they have to pray it doesn't break or they all die, but still, how magnificent it must be to be in their place under the stars, to look at the heavens so differently.
I went out with Astro-Nuts to our local astronomy club's dark site to image the night sky and to see what we could see, was lucky enough to capture a green/violet aurora along with the Milky Way, don't mean to be a braggy Bob again... well maybe a little, the image above was Editor's choice for the Sky and Telescope magazine's web site in their Reader's Photo Gallery section.
Image was taken with my Canon 40D and 10-17mm Tokina fisheye lens, 60 second exposure, ISO 3200, F3.5.
Our Milky Way is classified as a spiral galaxy with anywhere from 200-400 billion stars, the center, the bulge near the horizon, in the constellation Sagittarius has the highest concentration of stars therefore generally the brightest part of the Milky Way. Our Solar System orbit's the Galactic Center once every 220 million years.
Milky Way twirled in Photoshop.
While out that night saw a few meteors and captured the one above.
I'll leave you now with an animated version of one of my Milky Way shots.

The Backbone Of Night

Another good post Bob. I was waiting for you to post these Milky Way pictures. They look great. Well, since I got my new camera today, I'm hoping to capture similar images. The one with the meteor looks good too. Another good capture. I'm hoping to get back out to the site again soon, but don't remember the roads to take, so need a little help in that department. Anyway, I will be posting the first pics I took with the D90 so check them out on my blog.

I have to admit, and it may be a factor on my non-astronomy-ness, I'm an urbanite and always have been. With the ambient light around me, even at night, I never see more than our brighter stars, some planets, the gorgeous moon...
If it wasn't for heart-stopping pictures like yours, I wouldn't know what people meant by seeing the Milky Way in the sky.

Super shots as always. I've always admired the Milky Way. I remember way back when I lived on the edge of Death Valley, the nights were as clear as glass and I could see the Milky Way like a string scintillating diamonds stretching across the black sky. I recently saw a program about the giant black hole at the center of the Milky Way. Amazing.
Happy trails.

ts on having your photo selected for the Editor's choice on the Sky and Telescope magazine's web site. I can see why. Beautiful shot.
As you know I live in the country far from any major city or town and have the privilege of being able to pull out my lawn chair at night, lie down and stare at the Milky way on a clear night. It's awesome. The quote you chose for this post fits the sentimentality perfectly. Well done my friend.

Thanks Stephanie, I have to leave the city about 40 minutes to see the Milky Way, the light pollution is killer for my hobby, and it's getting worse by the year with all the light hungry casinos going up.\m/\m/

Thanks swubird, I would love to see the Milky Way from the deserts of Nevada, even our dark site can't compete with that.\m/\m/

Thanks Ivanhoe, it does make you think of other worlds and beings doesn't it, I do a lot of reflecting under the stars and wonder how I fit in to all that shines above.\m/\m/

- Bob Johnson said...
Lol, JD, I got the drift. Yes I know, you are very lucky to be able to take advantage of our Milky Way and all the other stuff in the night sky that is blocked by light pollution in our cities, so sad for us less fortunate.\m/\m/

Thankyou so much Bob! You brought to me memories of watching the milky way from chilly summers I spent in the Himalayas. Away from civilization and closer to the sky. Beautiful pictures. :)

- Genie said...
Incredibly beautiful quote, Bob. That's exactly what the stars look like if you drive up into the hills just north of my town, like glittering diamonds scattered on velvet. And that's an understatement. The sky sparkles in a way I could never describe, the quote is as close as I've ever read.
The photos are, as usual, fantastic! Way to go getting editor's pick!
"Backbone of the night," what a beautiful way to put it. I love that perspective.

Thanks Priyank, glad I brought back those memories, wow that must have been an impressive sight, the Milky Way and Himalayas.\m/\m/

Thanks a lot Genie and good to hear from you again. The Milky Way is really something isn't it? Glad you like the Backbone of Night, when I first heard it I thought the same as you, great new perspective of our home galaxy.\m/\m/

But first, backbone of night is a fantastic title, and what a term for the Milky Way! Gorgeous.
". . . pray it doesn't break or they all die . . " hahaha.

Congratulations on being Editor's choice - I'm glad you told us. You don't have a braggy bone in your body. You're more like my husband - like a boy so proud!

So happy you like my sense of humor never sure how some people will take it or even get it,lol.
I was pretty happy about being selected as editor's choice, and have received lots of emails because of it asking tons of questions so that was very cool.
Thanks again for dropping by Ruth.\m/\m/

I've always lived in the suburbs or the city, in a neighborhood full of bright lights or on a college campus. I never saw the Milky Way until last year when I spent the Christmas holiday in the UK. We were driving out in the countryside at night, totally dark, and I looked up at the sky and saw all this LIGHT... it was so, so beautiful. I could hardly believe it. I wish everyone could have that experience, but unfortunately a lot of people can not.

These photos are awesome as always Bob. I had never heard it called the Backbone of the Night. I like that!
It is interesting that we say we "see" the Milky Way. I am no expert, but isn't that all we see when looking up with our eyes? I don't think we can see any stars that are not part of our own galaxy? And what we call the "Milky Way" is really just one of the arms that is most visible from our own speck of terra firma. Or have I just been thinking incorrectly all these years?
And I hope all those casinos are at least forced to use the new lights that have been designed to prevent as much light pollution as possible. There is a neighborhood here that has new streetlights and from the hills above town, it really is a noticeable difference. That neighborhood looks darker from above.
- May 31, 2009 at 11:31 AM
- Bob Johnson said...
Hi Joy, you are so right most people never get to see the true Milky Way because of our cities light pollution which is only getting worse. I remember seeing it for the first time, quite remarkable.\m/\m/
- May 31, 2009 at 3:15 PM
- Bob Johnson said...
Thanks roentarre, it was amazing to see and then to be able to capture it with an aurora was the icing on the cake.\m/\m/
- May 31, 2009 at 3:16 PM
- Bob Johnson said...
Thanks Will,.
You are right when we view the Milky Way we are looking in towards it from one of the arms seeing other stars in the spiral arms closer to the center, in other words the most populated area of our galaxy hence the Milky Way shows up quite nicely, you look into the opposite direction you see hardly anything, only looking through maybe one arm outwards,the Perseus arm less populated with stars.
You are also right, any thing we can see with the naked eye is from our home galaxy with the exception in the northern hemisphere of the Andromeda galaxy from a dark site.
Will, our casinos here get away with murder, our Dakota Dunes Casino was allowed to shine 7 4,000 watt lights into the night sky to form a teepee the Saskatchewan government allows them to probably because they get 37.5% of the profits. The lights have been called "Man made light graffiti".\m/\m/

Very interesting and wonder-filled post, Bob! You can brag all you want--I support you in your right to blow your own horn!
I love the photo and the idea of the M.W. holding up the sky, like the armature of the universe. It's all in the perception. Maybe those Bushmen started the "Chicken Little" myth? lol...
- May 31, 2009 at 7:28 PM

Lol Lynda, maybe they did.\m/\m/

- Max said...
Hey Bob :D!
You know what? Sometimes I wish I could be like the Bushmen and enjoy stuff for just stuff...but my mind is covered by the clouds of information...too much information. Emmanuel Kant used to say that he envied the simple people because they didn't know much and yet they were happy not knowing; whereas the more a philosopher knows and thinks about the more confused he is LOL LOL...well, I wouldn't call us a bunch of confused people, but once we know a lot of stuff we start to worry too much.
Go ahead, Bob...brag all you want, man!! We'll still love you :D!
Lord of the Astropics, these photos are the proof of why you earned this nickname: they are beautiful! You seem to render the skies even more beautiful than what they are.
Have a superb week!
- June 2, 2009 at 10:02 AM
- Bob Johnson said...
Thanks Max, too much information doesn't always make for a smarter Bob, usually like you say more confused as the info you gather the more questions you raise until you are confused,lol.
I was really happy about the Editors choice selection, long exposure of our night sky brings out so much beautiful detail, it's kind of addicting to see what the next image will bring.\m/\m/

Hi Bob,
You always manage to capture the wonder of the universe and the heavens with your words and pictures!

Have a great day,

Bob this is very interesting post, and it always amazes me how old is the Milky Way! So you bragging again, lol, well I will tell you then: congratulations on you achievement my friend, lol, there is nothing wrong on letting people know what you have accomplished. BTW my parents never got me the thunderbolt stones, I guess I will have to come back and get them myself, but my husband told me we can find them here where we live, I was so excited, I asked: Where? Where?, he replied: I don't know, here somewhere! So I got de-excited, lol. Bob excellent post, love the twirl! Anna :)

Hi Bob!
Wow I love the top photo…ok now I read that others also like it just a bit! LOL
Wonderful quote…when confronted with the splendor of creation I cannot but be a good CSI…Creation Scene Investigator….God's "finger prints" are there for all who are willing to see…
I have had the opportunity to be I many secluded places with little light pollution and it is amazing how vast the Milky Way is and how dramatic its show can be…night after night…
Another great post Twirling Bob…

Lewis Marnell Tribute: ONE LOVE
As most of us know, professional skateboarder Lewis Marnell died earlier this year on January 18th, following complications related to Type 1 diabetes. It was a condition that he was diagnosed with when he was 10 years old. The global skateboarding community was shocked and saddened by this tragic news. We were in disbelief that someone – one of us, so young and gifted and well-known and liked, was suddenly gone. The days, weeks, and months of our lives continue elapse as Lewis' life of skateboarding lives on in all of us.
Be sure to consider and appreciate those people that you share great moments with in your life. Let them know that your life is better or enriched by them.
The words below are from Lewis' friend and cinematographer and editor Jason Hernandez who put together this "One Love" video in tribute of Lewis Marnell's good vibes and legacy.
We lost a skateboarder, a friend, and most of all, a truly good person.
Lewis lived his life with Diabetes, the kind were you'd need to check your blood for it's insulin levels and give your self a shot sometimes twice a day. Oh he'd let you know every day he had diabetes :) he'd ask before every spot, "Oi – how far is the nearest store, Oi – I need to eat, Oi – how long are we gonna be here? I need food" I look back at this and smile, at the time I'd be like, "c-mon really…?" He was really good a misplacing his insulin pen, I helped him find it quite a few times, and remember how psyched he'd be to find it under his mess of shopping bags he'd bring on every session, OHHHH the shopping bags – they'd be rustling around making all sorts of noise in the car, hotel room; he'd have all his gummy worms, sour patch kids, all sorts of sugary foods to keep his levels were they needed to be.
Lewis was legitimately a good person, he cared about what was going on in your life, he'd stop to talk with anyone, I mean anyone… A bum, the random lurker you don't want to talk to at the spot, anyone… We'd always be waiting on him because he met some new friend at the skate spot/or wherever we stopped the car.
I miss you Lewis. I hate to say I truly took you for granted and am sorry for every time I made you eat Subway cause I couldn't figure out your diet; I wish I could tell you all this in person… but I can't. So next time, I will try and let the people I see daily know that I appreciate them, and stop to talk with them just a little longer.
R.I.P Lewis
Love you bud.
Jason H

The Ego Reborn: the poppet-valve marker Redefined.
Every aspect of the Ego LV1 has been reshaped and redesigned to create the ultimate expression of Eclipse passion, performance and quality. There has never been such a complete and thorough overhaul of every facet of the Ego model, no stone left unturned in the pursuit of perfection. As a result the Ego LV1 utilizes technology never before seen in a paintball marker to transform the way it shoots and feels.
Internally the Ego LV1 introduces a revolutionary design that rewrites what can be achieved with this type of platform. The new system incorporates a profiled lever between the rammer and the exhaust valve that is used to separate the action of the rammer and bolt from the action of the valve. This additional element in the mechanism has several major benefits over the conventional knock-open system, particularly in respect to the force required to open the valve and the rate at which the valve is opened. This indirect operation of the valve means it can be opened more slowly, with considerably less force, yet retain excellent seal integrity.
The benefits when shooting? Smaller forces generated by the reciprocating components (bolt and rammer) and a smoother profile of the air released behind the ball which correlates to greatly reduced kick and significantly quieter sound signature. The change is so marked that in terms of feel and sound the Ego LV1 is no longer comparable to other poppet-based markers, but instead finds itself competing with the very best spool operated devices. It has to be seen and shot to fully appreciate the leap forward this system has made.
Yet that is only a small part of the Ego LV1. There are many more improvements throughout the entire marker, from front to back, inside and out. For example the valve itself is a completely new design that offers far superior flow paths through the entire valve chamber; the new LPR is fully integrated into the body of the marker so that it no longer protrudes beneath the barrel; the Zick3 rammer is designed to accelerate much more slowly, to be as gentle as possible as it loads the ball into the barrel; and each LV1 comes complete with two different weight rammers, one for efficiency, one for lower operating pressures; the AT Pipe system removes the need for macroline hose and fittings from the POPS to the inline regulator; the Regulator Sleeve and Crown integrate to provide a stable and ergonomic, non-slip foregrip; the grip and console offer a continuous soft rubber gripping surface around the frame; and the Cure5 bolt incorporates both a detachable soft rubber tip and free-floating transfer post seals.
Of course all this has been achieved without sacrificing the simplicity, reliability and ease of maintenance of a true Eclipse product.
The Ego LV1. The beginning of a new chapter in Ego history.

F&G: Trap that snared American Bald Eagle was licensedBY JAMES KIMBLE
Union Leader Correspondent
November 23. 2012 9:32PM
SALEM - Fish and Game officials have determined that a trap, which snared an American Bald Eagle in a wooded area near the state line and rescued by two police officers on Wednesday, was licensed by the state.
The incident set off a brief investigation into whether the trap, meant to capture small game, was legally set.
"At the time, we didn't know if it was there legally," Salem police Sgt. Mike Wagner said.
"It was just an unfortunate circumstance," Wagner said about the eagle being caught.
Wagner and Officer John O'Donnell responded to a call about 3 p.m. by a Methuen, Mass., man who found the eagle while scouting hunting spots with a friend. Wagner said when he first got the call, he was skeptical that he was really going to find an eagle. But he brought a blanket, bolt cutters and other tools he thought he might need, just in case.
The caller, James Ransom, brought the two officers to a clearing about 100 yards off of Garabedian Drive where the bird was found.
The eagle's right leg was caught in a metal snap-type trap, police said. The trap was set up alongside the remains of a recently skinned beaver, which likely attracted the eagle, police said.
Wagner and O'Donnell approached the eagle and covered it with a blanket. O'Donnell held the blanket while Wagner and Ransom first untangled the eagle's wing from around a small tree, police said.
They then went to work on the jaws the trap.
Once they released the trap, the officers discovered that the eagle suffered only a minor cut on one of its talons where the trap had snapped shut.
The officers, unsure if the eagle was able to fly, attempted to pick up the eagle with the blanket, but it flew right out of Wagner's hands.
The three men watched the eagle fly several hundred yards away, where it landed on top of a large pine tree.�
American Bald Eagles were removed from the list of threatened and endangered species in August of 2007, but they are still federally protected and monitored, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
"For whatever reason, Salem gets an inordinate amount of animal calls," Wagner said.
During his 13 years with the department, he has been called to rescue a barred owl, a boa constrictor, raccoons, dogs and cats.
But this was the first time Wagner has seen an eagle in southern New Hampshire.
During the rescue, officers found an identification band on the eagle's leg that had a serial number used to track the bird. Police notified federal authorities about the rescue and filed a report with them on the matter.

Last year Lawrence Technological University was one of the first libraries in the Midwest to join the OCLC WorldShare Management Services System, a cloud-based network for sharing library resources. So when OCLC put together a video to celebrate the 100th library going live on the system, the LTU librarians wanted to get involved.
Each library was sent a WorldShare beachball with the challenge to come up with an idea to show the ball bouncing into the picture on the left and bouncing out on the right.
The Lawrence Tech segment can be seen at the 3:30 mark of the OCLC promotional video.
Librarian Gretchen Weiner had the idea that the ball should bounce down a "staircase" of the many items you can find at the LTU library via the WorldShare system – from books and journal articles to videos, to games, etc. Librarian Sheila Gaddie came across an animated video of blocks and wondered if that could inspire the LTU entry.
The library enlisted Assistant Professor Stephen Coy of the College of Architecture and Design to give advice, and he invited one of his students, Jared Patterson, to work on the idea. After meeting with Weiner and Library Director Gary Cocozzoli, they decided to film in the Kahn Library.
Cocozzoli said it was fascinating to watch them film and put together the ten-second sequence, which used both live filming and stop-animation. It was photographed backwards, including a rotating globe that would remind viewers that WorldShare is used by libraries across the globe and is a primary method of interlibrary sharing of resources.
"The filmmakers edited the elements into a cogent form that is both amusing and amazing to view," Cocozzoli said. "Special thanks are in order to Professor Coy and to Jared Patterson for their creative efforts."
Worldshare topped the charts in new contracts among library automation companies in 2012, according to Library Journal, with 163 libraries contracting for WorldShare. With 67 more institutions already signed to go live in 2013, what will OCLC do for an encore when it hits 200 libraries?

More Conversions
Last time I built a simple A/D converter using an Arduino and its built-in comparator. I mentioned the algorithm was SAR or successive approximation, and that's true of the code that did the "binary search" — that is, it guessed about half of the voltage and then kept making adjustments depending on whether the guess was high or low. However, the program that simply ramped the voltage until it hit the target voltage is actually a "ramp compare" converter. A small point, since both use the same principle: Guess a voltage and see if it is the same. The only difference is the algorithm used to drive the guesses.
In general, however, all converters use the same sort of principle. As I mentioned last time, take what you know and use it to get what you don't know. In this case, what you know is a voltage the converter (in this case, the Arduino) generates. That only works, though, because the computer has enough external circuitry to generate a voltage.
The other thing that computers are pretty good at knowing is time. Granted, it is sometimes hard to know exactly what time it is (which leads to GPS, IRIG-B signals, and rubidium clocks). But it is pretty easy to know relative times, and that is another way you can make a digital circuit measure a voltage.
For example, you can charge a capacitor to an input voltage and then determine how quickly it discharges to a known point (for example, 0 volts). There are several variations on this theme. You can let the capacitor discharge naturally and do some math, or you can arrange for a constant current discharge of the capacitor so you get a linear relationship between time and voltage.
In fact, many sensors look like resistors (some joysticks, volume controls, and thermistors, for example) or capacitors (level sensors, proximity sensors, some humidity sensors, among others). In these cases, it is easy to measure the charge or discharge time with a known capacitor (for resistive sensors) or a known resistance (for capacitive sensors).
This is so useful, the popular Basic Stamp and many of its imitators include a command just for this purpose called RCTime. The Arduino even has an analog of that command.
Here's a slightly modified excerpt of the function from the Arduino tutorial:
long RCtime(int sensPin){ long result = 0; pinMode(sensPin, OUTPUT); // make pin OUTPUT digitalWrite(sensPin, HIGH); // make pin HIGH to discharge capacitor delay(1); // wait a ms to make sure cap is discharged pinMode(sensPin, INPUT); // turn pin into an input and digitalWrite(sensPin, LOW); // turn pullups off - or it won't work while(digitalRead(sensPin)){ // wait for pin to go low (and time in result) result++; } return result; // report results }
There are several ways you could wire up a circuit for this type of service, but the code above assumes you have a capacitor from the 5V rail to one side of a resistor. Then the other side of the resistor goes to ground. A small resistor (say, 220 ohms) goes from the center of the resistor/capacitor network to the Arduino pin. Either the resistor or the capacitor can be the unknown value. You can see the schematic below.
By bringing the pin to a high output, the capacitor has the same voltage across it and discharges. The function then makes the pin an input (with no pull-ups), which is effectively an open circuit. This allows the capacitor to charge. While it is charging, the capacitor will start out as nearly a short circuit. The voltage across it will get greater and greater until it looks like an open circuit (nearly). The Arduino will read the input as a low before that happens. The function counts up until the pin reads low. This is another example of using what you know (time, in this case — the time it takes to go through the loop) to get what you don't know (the unknown resistance or capacitance).
Of course, this doesn't give you an absolute value. It gives you a relative one. Without calibrating, all you can say is that the resistance now is more or less by some amount than it was before. To make things worse, the capacitor charges with an exponential curve so the result is not linear. That is, the actual measurement difference between 10 and 12 won't be the same as the difference between 100 and 102. To get a constant slope on a charging capacitor you have to use a constant current source, not a constant voltage as is the case here.
On the other hand, for some purposes this relative non-linear measurement is fine. One last interesting tidbit: In the macro world, resistors are inexpensive and of high quality and capacitors tend to be lower quality for the cost. High-precision designs often rely on resistors. However, on an IC die, resistors are sometimes difficult to fabricate precisely. Capacitors, on the other hand, can be made from very exact sized conductor plates with very thin insulating layers that are part of the standard IC process. That means IC designers often use designs that utilize highly precise capacitors instead of resistors.
Many processors now have built in analog I/O and that certainly makes things easier. But it is still worthwhile to understand how at least some of these devices work.

Sorry to spoil your day, but we need to talk about your vaulting water bill.
Water rates are in geyser mode in many cities across Canada. Ottawa, for instance, is being hit with a six per cent increase this year with more hikes down the road.
According to numbers recently released by the city, that means the average household water and sewer bill will jump from $636 now to $1,045 in 10 years, a startling increase of 74 per cent.
Now the good news: You can do something about it. What's more, by reducing your water consumption, you reduce strain on the city's infrastructure, including the water filtration system, and cut the energy needed to produce and then dispose of all that water. You'll also help improve our image as water hogs: Canadians each use more than 340 litres of water per day, the second highest amount in the world.
Here's what we found when it comes to cutting back:
Flushing money down the toilet
Replacing an older, 12-litre-per-flush toilet with a dual-flush or low-flow version that uses six litres or less can save a homeowner about $116 a year (we calculated most of these savings, which are approximate, by applying 2012 Ottawa water rates to savings calculated by the City of Hamilton in 2007; the City of Ottawa website recommends readers check the Hamilton publication A Guide to Wise Water Use, downloadable at water.greenventure.ca).
For a family of four, the cost of replacing a standard with an efficient toilet, roughly $350, should be paid for in about three years.
A badly leaking toilet can waste 200,000 litres a year, according to Natural Resources Canada's Office of Energy Efficiency (the office's website overflows with information on residential water conservation: oee.nrcan.gc.ca/residential/personal/newhomes/8840).
To test for a leak, pour a little food colouring or cold coffee into the tank and wait a few minutes; if the water in the bowl changes colour without your flushing the toilet, it leaks.
Singing in the shower
"The toilet and the shower are probably where people waste the most money," says Peter Schneider, a kitchen and bath designer at Ottawa's Westend Bath and Kitchen. "People let the water run in the shower and a family can waste thousands of litres in a year."
He recommends installing a thermostatic valve so you can shut the shower off while lathering and have your original hot/cold setting when you turn the water back on. A good thermostatic valve, including an on/off switch for those sudsy moments, costs about $300 and, according to Schneider, is a standard part of shower upgrades.
A low-flow shower head, less than $40 at building materials stores and an easy DIY project, can save a family of four about $158 a year. The City of Ottawa classifies a shower head that produces nine litres of water or less per minute as low-flow, although NRCan says even two litres per minute will be a comfortable shower (the agency says installing a low-flow head can also save 15 per cent a year on your water-heating costs).
Tip: Buy a waterproof shower timer and set it at five minutes. The simplest version is the Niagara Shower Coach Timer, a rotating, sand-filled hourglass with a suction cup, at amazon.com for $3.95 (U.S.) plus shipping.
The big drip
You already know that leaky faucet is wasteful.
Schneider says you're also a spendthrift if you leave the water running while brushing your teeth or rinsing vegetables. In fact, he says letting the water run is right up there with inefficient toilets and shower heads as one of the biggest residential wastrels.
One solution? To wash leafy greens, submerge them in a small bowl of water and dry in a salad spinner.
A low-flow valve aerator in faucets saves water by mixing it with air, but without sacrificing pressure. Available at building materials stores for less than $10, they simply screw into the faucet if you have a standard threaded faucet. You may already have an aerator — the little mesh screen is easily visible where the water comes out — but check the flow rate printed on the side. For kitchen faucets, it should be rated 2.75 GPM (gallons per minute) or less; bathroom faucets can be as little as one GPM.
Shoot for the stars
Compared to a standard dishwasher, an Energy Star machine can save almost 5,900 litres of water during its lifetime; that jumps to more than 194,000 litres in the case of a clothes washer (that would fill two big backyard swimming pools).
Those energy-efficient models also slash your electricity bills. At Hydro Ottawa's current rates, for example, switching from a medium to a high-efficiency clothes washer and using it during off-peak hours (7 p.m. to 7 a.m.) can save $700 over 14 years, about the life expectancy of a machine.
Speaking of washing, the International Car Wash Association says we use up to 630 litres of water during a driveway car wash. Try switching to a bucket of suds and rinse conservatively.
Bounteous jugs
Storing drinking water in the fridge rather than running the tap until it's cold can save a family of four $32 a year.
If you do store water in the fridge, use a lid to prevent the water from absorbing fridge odours.
Pitchers, like those made by Brita, contain a filter that traps sediment and reduces chlorine and lead content. Available in home and hardware stores, Brita pitchers start around $15.
Other ideas
Greywater systems collect, sanitize and store shower and bathtub water for reuse in toilets. They start around $2,000, but proponents say they can reduce fresh water use by up to 40 per cent.
Montreal's Brac Systems (bracsystems.com) sells them.
In the summer, you can save even more water by trading in your oscillating lawn sprinkler for one that distributes water at a low angle. Oscillating sprinklers lose up to 50 per cent of their water through evaporation, according to NRCan. The Orbit Watermaster at Home Depot is $9.99.
Timers for your sprinkler system — as little as $14.50 at Lee Valley Tools — can also save water.
And replacing 600 square feet of water-hungry lawns with native grasses and other drought-resistant ground covers can save up to $82 a year in watering costs.
Total savings by upgrading your toilet and shower head, using a water jug, and reducing grass watering: $388 a year.
Less is best
10 simple ways to save water
When it comes to conserving water and saving money on your water and sewer bill, the City of Ottawa offers this straightforward advice: Practise the three Rs (reduce, repair and retrofit). According to its website (ottawa.ca), here's how: Reduce: Be aware of your water use and consider ways to use less.
Repair: Locate and repair leaks to save water, money and to prevent potentially costly property damage.
Retrofit: Install water-saving devices on existing fixtures and select water-efficient devices when replacing older, water-guzzling fixtures and appliances.
Here are 10 easy tips from Water Use it Wisely's (wateruseitwisely.com) list of 100 ways to conserve water.
1. When washing dishes by hand, don't let the water run while rinsing. Fill one sink for washing and the other with rinse water.
2. Collect the water used for rinsing fruits and vegetables to water houseplants.
3. When running a bath, plug the tub before turning the water on, then adjust the temperature as the tub fills.
4. Collect water from your roof to water your garden.
5. Turning off the water while brushing your teeth or soaping your hands can save up to 114 litres of water a month.
6. If your dishwasher is new, cut back on rinsing. Newer models clean more thoroughly than older ones.
7. Run your dishwasher and clothes washer only when they're full.
8. When buying new appliances, consider those that offer cycle and load size adjustments; they're more water and energy efficient.
9. Use a commercial car wash that recycles water.
10. Teach your children to turn off faucets tightly after each use.
Did you know...
- Nearly 65 per cent of all indoor water use occurs in the bathroom.
- One drop a second from a leaky faucet can waste about 10,000 litres of water a year. A toilet that keeps running after it's flushed can waste up to 200,000 litres in the same time period.
- Standard shower heads release 15 to 20 litres of water a minute. A low-flow model can reduce that volume by half.
- It takes about 265 litres to fill a standard bathtub. Imagine how much more it would take to top up a soaker tub.
- Cutting showers short by a minute or two can save up to 680 litres a month.
- For an average four flushes a day, a conventional 18-litre toilet uses nearly 30,000 litres of water a year.
- Most front-loading washing machines are ultra-water efficient, using about 75 litres a load — about half that of conventional top-loaders.
- Energy Star dishwashers use about 15 litres per load, while handwashing generally takes about 75 litres.
- The average in-ground pool takes nearly 100,000 litres to fill.
- Need a new water heater? Bigger isn't necessarily better. If older children have left home, you're now using less hot water so you can save money with a smaller heater.

Even with all that constant vigilance, if something bad happens, the woman still has to justify why she was where she was. People will speculate about what she had on, whether she was too friendly and "led him on". I have a friend who has a very talkative, outgoing and bubbly personality. She is constantly dealing with aggressive attention from men she doesn't know. She says it is exhausting and makes her try to tone herself down.
And even worse, we can be our own worst enemies. How much negative attention does this woman above get from other women hating on her and jealous of the attention she gets from men?
That is the saddest part of the story.What was she doing there in that bar drinking at 4 AM? What did she expect would happen?No man would ever have to face those questions.
If some guy coming home from a bar at 3am on sunday morning were raped, would anyone question the way he was dressed? Question what he was doing there? Call him a slut and suggest he was asking for it? Tell him he should have just laid back and enjoyed it?
Terrific point. If some guy coming home from a bar at 3am on sunday morning were raped, would anyone question the way he was dressed?
Actually, yes. If he was crossdressing, or wearing revealing, tight clothes, or fetish attire....I would bet people would say 'he was asking for it.'
I am almost entirely sure that the comments underneath this article will be as varied as those underneath my original post. I am not a martyr, nor am I attempting to change the world in any revolutionary way. I am only in a band, not one of the many wonderful people in organisations striving for change. My involvement in this discussion is not motivated by a self-righteous or self-pitying urge. My hopes are that if anything good comes out of this, it will start a conversation, or continue the conversation which is already happening, encouraging others to reject an acceptance of the status quo, and that our band can continue to do what we are doing in our own way and on our own terms. For us, this has always been – and hopefully will always be – about the music, and that is what we will be getting back to now.

Quote from: Jag on September 27, 2013, 10:27:31 AM..the older gentleman driver made this gesture at me: index and middle finger spread wide and his tongue flicking back and forth between them while leering at me.Has this man not immediately removed himself from the gene-pool? I see this in evolutionary terms: if the peacock tries to sing instead of displaying its feathers, its line is going to end pretty sharply.We can all think of "the worst chat-up lines in the world." and that is why we don't use them - we know what would happen if we did. The unfortunate thing is that there must be some women who think his general behaviour (of which this is likely to be a very small part) is acceptable/funny/etc.
I understand that I am a big bad male, but I'm going to put a different spin on it.I have been shot at by a black person. Should I now treat all blacks as people who want to shoot me?Because AFAIAC, that is THE SAME ARGUMENT, except it isn't the politically correct one.
I always say what I mean. But sometimes I'm a sarcastic prick whose tone can't be properly communicated via text.
Do a large % of women get raped by men at some point in their lives?
No, I meant what I wrote. You don't think the minimum of 5% of all women is a large %, given the subject matter? How about the "nearly 20%" of women who'd been sexually attacked according to the CDC? Not a high enough % to worry about yet, for you?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_by_gender#Rape_of_females_by_males
Can you identify something about someone being black that would make you far more likely to get shot by one than by someone who is not black?
Can you identify something about someone being a man that would make a woman far more likely to get raped by him than by someone who is not a man?
All men have penises.

Religions need books because they don't have gods.
However, if a straight man even suspects that a gay man might be checking him out, the straight man has the right to beat the gay man to death....
In a 2000 research article from the Home Office, in England and Wales, around 1 in 20 women (5%) said that they had been raped at some point in their life from the age of 16 beyond.[5]In 2011, the US Centers for Disease Control found that "nearly 20% of all women" suffered rape or attempted rape sometime in their life. More than a third of the victims were raped before the age of 18.[6]Many rapes by males against females are unreported because of "fear of reprisal from the assailant"[7] and because of "shame...and deep-seated cultural notions that the woman is somehow to blame". [8] Researchers from the University of Surrey estimate that approximately 1 in 7 rapes by males against females are reported.[9]

For the Dakota Ridge boys basketball team, the approach to every game is simple.
The goal is to always "play hard, play smart, play together and play with pride."
So coming into last Wednesday's Class 5A nonleague home game against Heritage, Dakota Ridge looked to play with the same devotion they do every game.
Dakota Ridge entered the game fresh off a big win versus Hinkley, while Heritage had just dropped a game to highly-ranked ThunderRidge.

Local chiropractor Dr. Chad Laurence's mission in life has always been about helping people. So, when the opportunity arose for Laurence to offer his services to the band and crew of the Kenny Chesney "No Shoes Nation" tour last month, he didn't hesitate.
When a big 55,000-seat concert occurs, all eyes are fixed on the stage. Not too many people think about what is happening behind-the-scenes, although it might occur to an astute viewer that a lot of work likely went into the lighting, set design or sound of a monstrous show like the Saturday, June 8 Kenny Chesney show at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.
But, there's more to it than that. The process of putting a huge show together can be back-breaking work for the band members and crew so more and more musicians are making sure their crews can be taken care of on-site.
Enter chiropractor Dr. Chad Laurence, who runs a successful practice in Hockessin and normally finds himself helping members of his community with everything from spinal alignment and carpel tunnel syndrome to headaches and arthritis.
But, when he's not working on locals, sometimes he can be found helping actors and musicians with the symptoms built up from a life on the road. So, when the opportunity arose to support a big production like Chesney's "No Shoes Nation" tour, Laurence didn't hesitate.
He took time this week, in between appointments and spinal alignments to discuss his once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Q How did Kenny Chesney's people find out about you? How did you get involved?
A I met someone locally in Delaware who had a friend in New York City who was involved in stuff like this. So, once she saw my resume and saw how successful I was, she's started asking me to do work with traveling theatrical performances and other musical acts. So, when she got the press release for the Kenny Chesney concert and that the whole show actually featured four bands, she thought it would be perfect for me.
Q So, what was your experience like?
A I got my own private room at Lincoln Financial Field. It was me and a massage therapist, who was actually in a separate room. We took care of everybody, from lighting people and stage people to performers and band members. I was actually really busy, though. Musicians like Kenny Chesney can be on the road for six months at a time. He's got 18 truck-drivers that work for him, transporting his lighting, his stage and all of his equipment from city to city. His crew is doing really hard work, from lugging equipment around to hanging from 40-foot rafters and putting the stage together.
Q Given the work they do, what kind of injuries did you see?
A Well, all that hard work produces a lot of aches and pains. Their wrists are sore. Their backs are sore. Their necks. Once word spread that I was there, I was pretty busy.
Q What were you surprised by the most?
A Well, I had access to everything. It was really neat. I had never been in the locker rooms at the Lincoln Financial Field before. I got to go backstage. People would be really surprised to learn what backstage really means and just how far back it goes. I also got to eat my meals with the band. They have their own chef. They're actually a pretty healthy bunch. They had their own organic juicer there the entire time.
Q Did you get to work on Kenny Chesney?
A No. I never got to work on him. I did get a chance to work on some of the band members, though. Everybody was really nice and really down-to-earth.
Q Anytime someone works with a celebrity, the assumption is that the money must be really good. Is that true?
A I was allowed to set my own rates but I just charged the same thing that I always charge. I wouldn't have overcharged them or anybody just because it was a special occasion-at least for me. But, like I said, I was really busy the entire time so I did really well.
Q All in all, it sounds like it went really well. So, if you had your pick, what musician or concert would you like to work on as well?
A That's a hard question. I would have to say the Dave Matthews Band.

Business Connections 2014 includes a focus on employee health this year.
Events manager Julie Donohue of The Greater Springfield Chamber of Commerce said Tuesday that adding health-care screenings and information on employee-wellness programs is intended to bring more of the general public to the event, scheduled for Wednesday, March 26, at the Prairie Capital Convention Center.
The chamber has sponsored the event since 1989. The exhibitor floor is open 1 to 7 p.m. Admission is free to the public.
�We wanted it to be open to more than just business-to-business,� Donohue said. �Even though there were things for the general public in the past, we decided to add health care.�
Donohue said more than a dozen health-care providers will be among the 70 exhibitors on the convention center floor. A variety of health screenings will be available, as well as a specialist on employee wellness programs, Donohue said.
�This also opens it up to businesses that are not large enough to have their own health-care program,� Donohue said.
Mayor Mike Houston will provide an update of developments in Springfield during the �State of the City� luncheon, scheduled for 11:30 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. Cost for the luncheon is $33 for members and $35 for non-members.
The daylong schedule also includes speed networking, 9 to 11 a.m.; a social media seminar by Mid-West Family Broadcasting, 2 to 3:30 p.m.; and Business After Hours, 5 to 7 p.m.
A variety of food vendors are participating.
Additional information is available by contacting Donohue at the chamber, 525-1173 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Lucabracee; two kids at 500K a year, equals 250K per child per year. Broken down, it's about 83.3K per term, which is cheap. Chrisland isn't that cheap!Delete
Or, do you mean 250K per term per child (750K for a year?) The way it is now, parents want the best for their kids and even want better than they got. If he can afford it (and he can) all well and good.
His Daddy duties are commendable like all the other Daddies out there.

Areas affected: All unincorporated areas of Boulder County west of U.S. 36, Broadway and Colo. 93, including Rabbit Mountain open space
What is banned: All outdoor burning, slash fires, fireworks or model rockets
More info: bouldersheriff.org
Citing dry and windy weather and a lack of resources in the area, Boulder County Sheriff Joe Pelle enacted a fire ban Monday for parts of unincorporated Boulder.
The ban applies to all areas of unincorporated Boulder County west of U.S. 36, Broadway and Colo. 93 to the county line, according to Cmdr. Rick Brough of the sheriff's office.
The ban also applies to Rabbit Mountain open space to the north.
Brough said the lack of moisture and the unusually high temperatures for this time of the year prompted the fire ban. Temperatures in Boulder County are expected to remain in the 50s this week with occasional high winds, according to the National Weather Service.
"The sheriff went into the mountains himself over the weekend," Brough said Monday. "Even in the shade there is no snow. It's just dust and wind.
"He said it was a tinderbox."
Brough said the decision also was due in part to the lack of resources in the area since it is not the typical fire season. Dry weather and high winds currently are fueling the Fern Lake Fire in Rocky Mountain National Park northwest of Boulder that already has consumed more than 3,000 acres.
Brough said the ban will remain in place until the area sees some moisture.
The ban prohibits all outdoor burning, slash fires, fireworks or model rockets.
Parts of Boulder County were under a burn prohibition for four months earlier this summer, and then again over Labor Day weekend.

Paxtecum were simply outraged that most designer fashion items are either completely overpriced or only available in brick and mortar stores known as 'Boutiques'! Paxtecum was created with one mission goal, and one mission goal alone; to bring designer fashion to every corner of the globe, but at prices that are 'real & affordable' for everyone! Why should only the super rich and privileged people be enjoying the best the world of fashion and design has to offer, that is what they asked themselves. Surely the experience to own and wear designer brand name fashion and accessories, be it a classy handbag, dress or suit, should be an achievable experience for all of us.

Yep, the threat of another girl is here. Last semester I liked this girl and she just didn't wanna be there, so she didn't pay attention to anyone.
This semester I met a great girl. I think we might be made for each other. I don't know but things are looking good.
First we were kinda forced into the same group for our project, fine with me cause I was hoping I could work with her. We had to chose a group to be in and by the time the list came around there was only one left.
Its a shame we only have the class once week. I added her to facebook, which I really don't use but...the next time we had class, she turned around and asked if it was me who added her. I told yea, and she said she didn't recognize the picture and gave a little laugh. Now I am not good looking by any means.
So yesterday she comes and sits down and ask me if she sat somewhere different. I replayed, well you normally sit one up but its not going to make a difference. The difference was she sitting one seat in front of me vs. sitting next to me. Then she told me how when she was talking to me the other day, she lost her voice. Completely irrelevant.
These have to be signs! Its only a matter of time. Though it cant be too long, Valentines day is just a few days away.
