Do you need instant rails?
January 8, 2006 at 4:41 pm 1 comment
I have written about the Instantrails package before, but having tried it for a day, I decided to go with a proper installation. The reason for this is that I've never used to run either MySQL or Apache on my local computer, and as I have all sorts of firewalls and quirks on my computer, when things went wrong, I did not understand how I could fix them. Instantrails does not have any real documentation and I was not sure what exactly went wrong.
Also, Instantrails comes with phpmyadmin for MySQL admin, and for this it also needs to install php, which I thought was excessive – I'd rather go with my old trusted MySQL Control Center or the new Query Browser. So, if you are not a power user of either MySQL or Apache, I would recommend against using InstantRails.
Finally, for development you do not need to install Apache, as Rails comes with WEBrick, which should do the job good enough.

Yes I need InstantRails, but what I need more is a step-by-step procedure for setting up an app that was created with ruby-on-rails. The app I am thinking of is Solunas-2.0b. I have tried top install ruby and then rails and I get tripped up everytime. Mostly with installing rails. I don't know where it goes to install it manually. I have had not had much success with "gem install rails –include-dependencies" although I am sure it works for some folks. I am a newbie to this programming environment and I am having a lot of trouble putting it all together. TIA, Steve

Some call it 'being thrifty' or 'economising' or 'stretching a dollar'. If you're particularly good at disguising words, you could even term it 'parsimonious'. Whatever you want to call being stingy, I call it a pain in the neck. Because when it comes to painting, I am.
From my perspective, painting is not a cheap pastime to take up.
It's a good thing I didn't wake up two and a half months ago and think, "That's it. Enough of this shilly-shallying; I'm going to follow my dream of building and flying my own supersonic jet through the stratosphere – I'll even start a blog about it to keep me motivated." Because my miserly little heart may well have stopped right in the middle of pushing the bare minimum of blood around my body.
So what does being a parsimonious painter look like?
Here. I'll show you what it looks like:
What we have here, readers, is a bunch of paint that's dried and gone hard on a palette because, Tightwad here (that's me) couldn't bear to clean up / throw out the paint she'd worked so hard to mix.
All the colours I use to paint with are predominantly mixed using just the primary colours and white. With this as a starting point, my painting sessions are 80% colour mixing, 10% painting, and 10% throwing up my arms in despair. Needless to say, there's a lot of effort devoted to colour mixing, and that means I am always loathe to see any paint unused.
Tired of using up my precious painting time scraping the dried remains of paint off my palette, I've come up with a solution of sorts: I try to use any left-over paint from one painting, in another.
Remember the pot plant in my Toothbrush Painting? Rather than throw out the blue I'd worked so hard to mix, I altered it with a dash of red and used it as the base work in a new painting. I also took the red used when finishing my String Painting and did some ground work on what will be wine glasses.
The deep brown in my bread (that blobby thing in the bottom left) and wooden spoons came from a bad batch of black I mixed while working on the leaves of my pot plant:
And now that I've progressed that to a point of limited but relative satisfaction, I'll be using the left-over green to make a salad or two.
Some call it 'multi-tasking' or 'resource efficiency'. I call it pushing the acceptable boundaries of frugality. But sometimes I call it clever.

Aaand it's Friday! Thank all that is holy, because this week has been LONG.
So I don't know about the rest of you, but there are certain things I hate spending money on. For instance: black pumps, beige underwear, and those stupid long-sleeved vests things to wear under jerseys in winter. Something less boring but I still hate spending money on is getting my nails done. I love the result but feel like it's a lot of money for something that's going to chip in the next week or 2. (If weekly manicures are your thing that's totally cool, I'm just always too broke from buying cat dresses and fancy cheeses – priorities yo)
Anyhoo, I have splurged on acrylic nails with gelish paint a couple of times this year for friends' weddings, and at R400 a pop you better believe I'm looking to make that shiz last.
SO if you have acrylics/gels/gel polish that's growing out and your nail beds are looking naked and sad, here are 2 quick ways to make them look pretty again and keep you going for longer in between manicures.
What I used:
– Accessorize Nail Polish in Gold Dust (R49, Clicks)
– Essence Colour & Go Nail Polish in Make it Golden (around R30)
– Accessorize Nail Polish in School Skirt (R49, Clicks)
– A small paintbrush
Look 1: Graphic
Since my gelish polish is a light pink, I chose to contrast it with Accessorize's School Skirt, an awesome opaque grey. I dipped my paintbrush into the nail polish, wiped off the excess, and very carefully filled in the little half moons that have grown out. What's cool about gelish is that you can use nail polish remover over it and it won't remove the polish, so you can clean up any mistakes with the grey with a cotton bud and some remover. Et voila – graphic, modern nail art with minimal effort!
Look 2: Sparkly
As we all know, glitter makes everything better. I love looking down at my nails and having a glittery distraction from real life. So for this look I filled in the half moons with Accessorize's Gold Dust (a fine gold glitter with amazing coverage). I then dabbed on Essence's Make it Golden (a chunkier gold glitter) on the half moons and faded it down the nails a little bit. This disguises grown out polish really really well, because the texture distracts from the different heights of the nail bed and the overlays. Plus you get to feel fancy.
And that's it! I'll be writing a few more Broke Girl's Guides, so let me know if there are any topics you'd like me to cover!
Love and buyer's remorse,

So you're interested in taking a break from school to do something really awesome, make unforgettable memories, and go through a lot of personal growth.
That's amazing! I'm really proud of you! *insert applause emoji and trophy emoji*
Gap years are becoming increasingly popular, and it's pretty obvious as to why if you ask anyone who's taken one.
People take gap years for a variety of reasons. Personally, I was first inspired by my cousin who took one to work in her hometown, save up some money, and take some community college courses to get a few credits out of the way for later. I remember being in middle school when she graduated and stayed home that year. I thought it was a terrific idea. And the adventure started from there.
Being half-French I decided it would be good to see if I could "survive" by myself in France: the ultimate test of my Frenchiness. I wanted to know if I could be on my own in another country, one I was familiar with, but not so familiar with at the same time. I chose Paris because I have fond memories of taking weekend trips as a girl with my maman while visiting my grand-parents in the center of France. We'd leave my baby brother with them and go have fun for a few days. I later decided I wanted to spend some time in a Spanish-speaking place because I had taken Spanish in school and wanted to do some sort of immersion.
Now I must mention that because I knew I wanted to do this for a long time before being a high school senior, my parents knew as well and were not opposed to the idea in the slightest. A bit of history: my American dad took a gap year way back when nobody did that sort of thing. He went, you guessed it, to France and basically re-did his senior year in a French high school, staying with a host family and waiting tables in their fancy restaurant. And of course my maman had always been a traveler, leaving home pretty early to be a French teacher's assistant in England and later the U.S. against her parents' wishes.
So they were cool about the whole interrupting-my-education thing.
That's not the case for others. So the first steps in planning your gap year are:
- Figuring out why you want to take it and what you hope to gain from it
- Brainstorming some ideas – there are lots of websites to help you, other travel or student blogs, YouTube videos, etc.
- When you have some sort of plan, talk to your parents/guardians about what you want to do.
- Start saving money!
- You don't need to decide so far ahead in advance like I did. It's entirely possible to decide to take a gap year are the last minute. My friend who now goes to Yale decided right after our high school graduation!
Now number 3 is important because when you're a senior you're probably still living under your parents/guardians roof, and you might not be financially independent. That's where number 4 comes in. I started babysitting as a teenager and then worked summer jobs for two years before leaving (I'm also not a huge spender, so that helps!). You can also let your extended family know you're planning a trip and maybe you'll get a bit more cash for your birthday. Remember, gap years don't need to be expensive and out of reach. It all depends on what you want to do, and which opportunities present themselves to you.
But when presenting your plan to your parents, try to anticipate questions they might have – how long you want to go (it doesn't have to be a whole year), where will you stay, how will you support yourself, safety issues, etc. This lets them know you have thought out the details, and makes you seem well-prepared (because it's ok if in reality you aren't!).
Parents might also be upset about not going into college right away, getting side-tracked, the whole "but when you come back you won't want to study or work again after being on vacation for so long!" spiel. Well you technically aren't going to miss out on education if you count all that you will learn during this year. Plus, if you live in the U.S., you are fortunate enough to live in a great (although expensive) education system that lets you study pretty much anything and almost anytime. People graduate college at all ages today. Another plus, after school you might start working, and you'll probably be in the workforce until retirement. So why rush it?
I guess what I want you to take away from this is that the process to plan a gap year may seem daunting at first, but just remember that the possibilities are endless, and that in the end those who discourage you from taking one are not in control of your life. Remember that this is your life, your decisions. Some people, myself included, don't feel ready right after high school to go right to college. Some don't go to college at all. And that's all fine. A gap year is a great way to get some life experience, take time to mature, and then come back and decide what to do with your life.
Next part: Getting dirty in the details

News Release
Teachers participate in live-action poverty simulation
February 27, 2017
Over 100 educators from the Pana school district, as well as Mid-State Special Education, participated in a poverty simulation offered by University of Illinois Extension at Pana High School Friday, Feb. 17. The simulation entitled "Community Action Poverty Simulation" (CAPS) promotes a greater understanding of poverty through a live-action simulation.
During the poverty simulation, participants role-play the lives of low-income families from single parents trying to care for their children to senior citizens trying to maintain their self-sufficiency on Social Security. Poverty is a reality for many individuals and families. However, unless a person has experienced poverty, it is difficult to understand. Community Action Poverty Simulation (CAPS) bridges the gap from misconception to understanding. CAPS is an interactive immersion experience. It sensitizes community participants to the realities of poverty. CAPS is not a game. It is based on real Community Action clients and their lives.
During the simulation, participants reenacted living a month in poverty and experienced a low-income families' life. After the simulation, participants broke into smaller groups and discussed what they experienced and brainstormed ideas for community change. Continue education credits were available for educators who participated.
Poverty in Christian County:
In Christian County, almost 14.6% of individuals live below the poverty level (according to the U.S. Census, 2011-2015 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates). That is a 1.5% increase since 2013. The 2016 Report on Illinois Poverty Social IMPACT Research Center also states that in 2014 Christian County had 4,639 people living in poverty, which is an increase of 368 people from previous year. In addition, the child poverty rate in 2014 was 20.2%. The median household income for the county in 2014 was $46,870, which was a 6.6% decrease from the previous year. The average amount poor families' income falls below the poverty line (i.e. mean income deficit), 2010-2014 was $8,905. This is in contrast with the State of Illinois as a whole, which recorded a slight decrease in the poverty rate and number of people living in poverty, and also saw median household income increase slightly.
For more information about hosting a poverty simulation in your community, please contact Amanda Cole, County Director, University of Illinois Extension, 217-532-3941 or by email firstname.lastname@example.com.

It seems that most of my work within the Faith is without the Faith.
This does not mean that I am without Faith during most of my work (give me a break), but that it is spent outside the common boundaries of the Baha'i community. You see, most of my time is spent in the interfaith arena. But how, you ask, did this come about? I'm glad you did. You're very good, O Reader, at picking up these cues.
In my search for a faith path, I spent a lot of time searching many different paths and developed a love for them all. While most would say, "We're right and everyone else is wrong," the Baha'i Writings said different.
Baha'u'llah, in His Most Holy Book, said, "Consort ye then with the followers of all religions". This is in the same paragraph in which He "abolished the concept of 'uncleanness'", which was often an excuse for abuse in the name of religion, either of people or things. In that same paragraph, He refers to God as "the Ever-Forgiving, the Most Generous", and "the Most Compassionate".
I believe it is worth noting here that I do not think anything in the Sacred Text is accidental. I believe that every word is exactly what it needs to be. If an attribute of God is in a particular place, it seems to me that Baha'u'llah is alluding to that same attribute within us for our edification, or perhaps to assist us in fulfilling what is called for in that place. What I mean by this is that if God is the All-Knowing, and we are created in His image, then we can have some knowledge. If God is the All-Wise, then we can have a bit of wisdom. If He is the Most Generous, we can show some generosity.
Here, when we are told to "consort... with the followers of all religions", we could stand on an egotisitcal "I'm right" pedestal and see the reference to "the Ever-Forgiving" as an admonition to "forgive" those who are "wrong," but I suspect that is not what is intended. I prefer to see it as a release from the guilt we may feel if we ever did avoid someone, or hurt someone, because we felt they were in some way unclean. It is a reminder that God forgives us, and that He is Most Generous. We, in our turn, can also be generous to those who may have been abused for reasons of seeming "unclean", and we are reminded to be compassionate.
But in that particular quote, one word was unclear to me: consort. What does it mean to consort with someone? At first I had thought it meant to kind-of hang out with them in a sort-of friendship kind of way (as you can see, it was fairly distant and not clear to me). But then I looked it up, and realized that the word is a bit more intimate than that.
While there are numerous definitions, when looking at them all they give a sense of closeness that I had not previously associated with the word. I noticed that Prince Philip is Queen Elizabeth's consort: her husband.
This became my guiding principle in my interfaith work. I was to be so close to the followers of other Faiths, truly united with them (I'm not talking about a physical intimacy but a spiritual one, sheesh) that it is as if their faith is my own.
Over the past few years, it has been summed up in my own mind as "I regard what you regard as sacred, because it is sacred to you." When the Buddhist monk spins his prayer wheel, or the Aboriginal American elder smudges with the sacred smoke, this is the same, to me, as my recitation of the daily obligatory prayer revealed by the Blessed Beauty. Prayer is prayer, and they all go to the same Creator.
Recently, a friend asked if this is what is meant by tolerance, and I had to laugh. I pointed out that if my wife only "tolerated" me, it would be a pretty good definition of a living hell. No. The attributes of love, compassion, respect, honour, and so on and so forth, that I show my wife in our spiritual discussions are the same attributes that I need to show people of all faiths.
OK. I think I have shown you a bit about how important interfaith work is to me, and how dear it is to my heart.
But what does it mean in practical terms?
First, I love to read and study the Sacred Texts of all faiths. Second, I look at them through the lens of "Baha'u'llah's matchless utterance" and teachings.
If there is something that I find within Sacred Text that does not agree with Baha'u'llah's teachings, then I know that I have misunderstood what they say and need to go back and check it again.
When some friends and I were studying that priceless book commissioned by the Universal House of Justice, One Common Faith, we ran across the following statement in the foreword about the principle of interfaith: "Far from challenging the validity of any of the great revealed faiths, the principle has the capacity to ensure their continuing relevance."
Later, on page 39, when we read "even so influential a figure as Mohandas Gandhi proved unable to mobilize the spiritual power of Hinduism in support of his efforts to extinguish sectarian violence on the Indian subcontinent", someone made the comment that this showed that "Hinduism has lost its power and everyone should become Baha'i". We sat up and all decided to go back to the foreword.
"The principle has the capacity to ensure" the "continuing relevance" of "the great revealed faiths".
We knew that we needed to go back and re-read that statement about Gandhi, for what we had done was try to dismiss the relevance of one of "the great revealed faiths".
And what we discovered was that what was said was that not that Hinduism was irrelevant, but that Gandhi was not able to mobilize its power, which was still relevant. The reason was due to the many reasons stated earlier in the book about why faith seems to be losing its relevance in the heart of many people, and this was just another example.
Most of the people in that study came away with a far greater appreciation of the importance of other faiths. And it showed me, yet again, the Baha'is Faith's overwhelming love and respect for all faiths.
I was going to finish with an analysis of a teaching of Jesus, to demonstrate the second point above, but I think I'll leave that for the next post. For now, the day is beautiful and it's time to go out and enjoy the weather.

text: After reading Junji Ito's Uzumaki I was so intrigued by that nasty tale that I told myself I had to write something along that genre. I came up with Gavin Darkside but I still have yet to tie myself down to get it written. So, by the time I do get around it Darren Shan's Demonata and Clive Barker's Cabal would have had more influences on it. In the meantime, this is what I've got so far. The artist, by the way, is Edwin Kho.


text: I would like to point out that "midday" may or may not be exactly 12 Noon Standard Time at a given place. We need to know the sunrise and sunset for the place and calculate the daylight duration, half of which is then to be added to the sunrise time to arrive at the midday time. For instance, the sunrise for Bengaluru is 6:09 AM IST and sunset is 6:22 PM tomorrow. The daylight duration would be the time period between sunrise and sunset, which in this case is 12 hours 13 minutes. Half of this is 6 hours 6.5 minutes. Adding 6 hours 6.5 minutes to the sunrise time 6:09 AM gives us 12:15:30 PM as the midday time. Obviously, this time could change from one date to another, depending on the sunrise and sunset times at the place on the given date. Anand

No, unfortunately that quote was not in reference to a nice man (who knew it would be so hard to find a chubby, bald man with facial hair that has a heart of gold), but rather the line was uttered to me on Saturday night about my horse.
My friend with the horse I was supposed to borrow for the show and Marissa had me over for cocktails to cheer me up. It was a very fun night and they said the nicest thing to me which is still making me smile all these days later.
They said that Gen adores me 🙂
I know that I adore my pony, but I don't always think about him feeling the same way about me.
Sure, he comes running over when I call, and yes, he loves his Mommy, but he lived for me when I first got him and now it is just not the same. He even lets other people give him smooches. He used to hurt himself when I would go away for a long weekend, but now he is a happy boy in general (haha…General is happy in general) so I forget that we still have a very special relationship. I sometimes take it for granted that my horse actually likes me back.
In fact, if they hadn't pointed it out to me I wouldn't be writing this post at all. I expect my horse to love me. I don't expect him to be all cuddle bug and sweet everyday (actually, I kind of do, but I don't want to admit that), I mean, he does have his own life and personality, but I do expect him to want to be with me. Most horse owners love their horses, but I really have not seen a whole ton where the admiration is mutual. I feel lucky to have that most days.
Gen is without a doubt my horse of a lifetime. He is perfect for me. His gaits match mine perfectly. When I could ride him it was the perfect fit. His walk is my walk so when we go for our walks in hand it is a perfect match. His personality is just the right mix of stubborn, know it all, and baby for me. When Gen panics and no one else can calm him down, I can. He listens to me and he trusts me. I don't know if I would use the adore, but I will say that my horse knows that I am his human and that is enough to keep me happy!

The Reader at Calderstones
In 2014, The Reader signed a 125 year lease with Liverpool City Council with a view to developing The International Centre for Shared Reading in the historic Mansion House and establishing our Reader HQ and social enterprises in the old Coach House and Courtyard buildings.
Since then we have completed the first of an ambitious three phase development, opening The Reader Ice Cream Parlour (2015) and our interactive children's story centre The Storybarn (2016) in the Courtyard.
We have also secured nearly £4 million investment from Heritage Lottery Fund and other trusts and funds to implement phase two, the redevelopment and transformation of the historic Mansion House and the preservation of the Neolithic standing stones from which the park takes it's name.
In 2017 the Mansion House doors closed to allow much-need repairs to be completed, while conservation work on the internationally important Calder Stones will begin in 2018.
The design team appointed to complete the works include Liverpool-based architects Austin-Smith:Lord who have previously worked on projects at The Bluecoat and Kew Gardens; Todd & Ledson, project management and cost consultants, whose heritage experience includes the transformation of Liverpool's Grade II-listed Royal Insurance Building; engineers Charles Andrews who have previously worked on Manchester's Exchange Quay and structural engineers and award-winning built environment specialist Curtins Consultancy. Interpretation Specialists Leach Studios have also been appointed to consult on the future heritage experience at Calderstones.
"Until the House is built
And then the Props withdraw
And adequate, erect,
The House supports itself…"
The Props Assist the House, Emily Dickinson
The International Centre for Shared Reading
The building will become a hub of Shared Reading and well-being activity in the beautiful, peaceful environment of Calderstones Park – a destination which will welcome visitors for the local community, the wider city of Liverpool, the UK and beyond.
With new businesses, an expanded café and the restoration of the Neolithic Calder Stones from which the park takes it's name, The Reader are building a community which will provide opportunities for people to reach their full potential through employment, volunteering and training opportunities.
We have already welcomed thousands of visitors of all ages to Calderstones to enjoy regular Shared Reading groups, exhibitions, heritage tours, outdoor theatre productions and many special events such as our first Children's Literature Festival.
Read more about the story so far at Calderstones.
The Mansion House has now closed its doors temporarily to allow the refurb to get under way but there's still plenty going on at Calderstones.
Weekly Shared Reading groups will continue at the Coach House, and our thriving social enterprises, The Gallery, Café and Ice Cream Parlour, will remain open for business throughout the redevelopment. The Storybarn will also continue to welcome children to explore, share and discover a love of books and storytelling.
You can keep up to date with how the redevelopment is progressing and all the goings on at Calderstones through our blog, Twitter and Facebook.
What's on at Calderstones
Find out more about our children's story centre, Social Enterprises and the community activity based at Calderstones:
Our Plans for the Future
Here at The Reader we have big plans for our future at Calderstones, with The International Centre for Shared Reading at the heart. Reading and great literature are at the heart of everything we do from our Poem to Take Home in the Cafe to the shelves of pre-loved books on sale across the site, and in the future we plan to open a Reader Bookshop here in Calderstones.
We will also create community event spaces, breathe new life into the Mansion's original outdoor theatre, and showcase the rich history and heritage of the House, the Stones, the park and the wider community.

The Engine of our Growth
Guest Post by Tahmina Shafique, WB-SAES Youth Delegate from Bangladesh
In South Asia, private sector remains to be the engine of growth. The dynamism, entrepreneurship and contribution that private sector has shown, at the backdrop of a complex governance structure, is nothing short of a heroic story. Private sector has battled in a field which is characterized by numerous regulatory, governance and technical challenges.
The region is stifled by red tape, badly governed and certainly lacks a business enabling environment. So this private sector has battled through these very odds and really come out. If we look at real contributions, be it in terms of our GDP, employment, production levels- it is evident that their contribution has been significant.
But, the story of private sector is also a complex one. The complexity lies in the fact that private sector is characterized by stark dualism. Approximately, 90% of the workers remain to be in the informal sector. So, a large portion of what we call the private sector in the region is really the informal sector and this includes the micro enterprises, which are not within the remit of our analysis often. So, while we speak about private sector development, and plans for improvements, it is important to address the issue of bringing this large informal sector under the fold of the analysis and bringing them in the forefront. Unless this large informal segment is addressed, growth may not necessarily sustain.
While it true that the private sector remains to be the engine of growth, increasingly there is also an immense need to ensure that they are productive, and more importantly, the concept of responsible business is instilled within their operations. It is really time for this private sector to embed business ethics within its operations and embrace the concept of responsible business- this obviously is not an easy feat and must be pushed forward by key stakeholders such as the associations and civil society.
As we speak about need for policies, it is fully agreed that the more urgent issue is the appropriate implementation of key policies such as competition policy, industrial policies and others which are already in place. One of the interesting areas that also came through in discussions of this session was the need for appropriate investment promotion strategy that can actually attract investments within the region. The region does not seem to have a body or a strategy to ensure this- will better cooperation and integration in the coming year push this idea to the forefront? It was also reiterated that the region needs to open up to the global value chain, which in a way, some countries have done so in some sense.
But it is also important to note that the region also needs to be able to compete within an enabling and competitive domestic market before moving to the global competitive world.
It is for time to tell how reforms will finally take place and how strategies will be brought forward for better regional private sector integration. The task ahead of us is immense, and perhaps each party the civil society, the governments and the private sector itself, must own their roles in the true sense and bring forward the transformation that is really required.

|SShown here is an example of a "peach basket" type of wig-wag. Two are preserved a the Orange Empire Railway Musuem (OERM). They protect Alpine Drive across the museum's mainline. The picture shows the one on the west side of the mainline. Union Pacific was known for using this type of wigwag.
|This is the one on the east side of the mainline. Both are intact with original cast-iron cross bucks and reflectorized "stop on red signal" signs.
|In this view, you can see both wig-wag on opposite sides of the crossing about to be passed by one of OERM's diesel locomotives.
|The last car of our caboose train is about to clear the crossing.
|Our caboose train returns to the main platform with the west wig-wag shown in action.
|This wig-wag is typical of the the style used by Pacific Electric. To save on costs, PE mounted them directly on the pole supporting the overhead trolley wire. What makes this wig-wag more unusual is the all red banner with "stop" lettered on it. It protects OERM's Cental Ave. crossing.
|Beautifully restored LARy. 1201 crosses Central Ave. sending the wig-wag into action.
|The musum's talented signal crew is in the process of installing this wig-wag at the Broadway crossing. It is a typical Southern Pacific style wig-wag complete with original base. More pictures will follow when it's complete!
|Paul Krot updates us with the finished product. (12/00)
|Complete with x-bucks and "stop on red signal" signs.

Nomad Summit is for those who want to live a different life, far from the rat race and the nine-to-five at the cubicle office. For people who want to live free and take charge for their own lives. For those who want to travel the world, be their own boss and start living before it's too late. Are you one of these?
The first Nomad Summit was organized in January 2015 in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Ever since, it became the central annual event for hundreds location idependent entrepreneurs, online business owners, freelancers, travel bloggers and those who wish to live this life.
This year, we're taking the experience to the United States so that even more people can learn how to break free from the repetitive daily grind and get started with working online while living the location independent life everyone wants to live.
Huge thanks to all the coordinators, you guys really made this a special day! Worth EVERY PENNY (or .25B) So glad to have been a part of it! :)
Thank you so much for organizing such an event, it was so inspiring. Especially loved the Tree Tribe presentation!
I had many takeaways from the talks and really enjoyed the rawness of the speakers who were willing to share their stories! Thanks for the fun event :)
My first day in Chiang Mai was at the Nomad Summit. Couldn't have asked for a better start!
I have a love/hate relationship with the presentation by Brendan Tully! Great information - some that I needed to hear, but didn't want to hear ;)
The nomad summit was awesome! Reaaaally inspiring! Loved the definition of power that was given and I try speaking out loud my thoughts as suggested.
Had no idea that many were here. Definitely looking forward to the next one!
I loved the personal brand presentation. Been thinking about it non stop!
Huge value and good vibes in that room.
Particularly the Superhero angels! Loved Marcus and Cody's prezos :)
Thanks to everybody who helped put this on. Very inspiring!
A full day of TED-style talks delivered by successful online entrepreneurs sharing their most valuable lessons with you. No time for fluff - you'll go home with your notepad full of actionable advice.
Always dreamed of quitting your job and becoming your own boss while traveling the world? We're bringing you people who've already achieved all this and more. You're guaranteed to get ideas!
Surround yourself with over 400 like-minded individuals that share your goals and visions, and spend the day talking to them! Chances are you'll even meet your future business partner at the event - you wouldn't be the first.
What's a better place in the USA to get a glimpse of the digital nomad lifestyle than Las Vegas? Nomad Summit doesn't stop at the conference. You're invited to our lunch, epic afterparty and next-day pool party right on the Las Vegas Strip!
In September 2018, Nomad Summit will take place in MEET, which is right in the heart of downtown Las Vegas - only two blocks away from Fremont Street Experience and a 15 minute Uber ride from McCarran International Airport.
We want to make your stay comfortable, so we've been searching for the perfect hotels only a few minutes walk from the conference!
1) Downtown Grand Hotel - link
This beautiful hotel is only a 6-minute walk from where the conference will be held. This is our preferred choice, this is where most of the attendees, the speakers and our whole staff will be staying. What is more, our traditional Nomad Pool Party will be held on the rooftop of Downtown Grand as well!
2) Golden Nugget - link
Only a 5-minute walk from MEET and 3 minutes from Downtown Grand! An awesome alternative in case Downtown Grand is fully booked.
3) The D Hotel - link
If the first two options get too pricey, The D Hotel is a great budget choice halfway between Downtown Grand and Golden Nugget.

Warm cookies
I realized something important this evening . It really is the little things in life that matter. As I'm writing this I'm laying in my cozy bed in my room lit up by white string lights and listening to I Choose You as it plays out the speaker in the washroom as my roommate takes the shower. Why am I telling you this? Simply because it was a little thing that made me feel calm. It made me feel happy and I think that is something I haven't felt in a long time.
It seems we get so caught up in the future and the negative occurrences of day-to-day life, that we forget to be happy. We forget to just be. I forgot what it was like to blast music and jump around and dance without a care in the world. I did that tonight, I danced to loud music with two of my friends and existed there in that moment without a care in the world. How fortunate am I that I can lose all my insecurities, all my stress, all the weight on my shoulders even if it is just for that small moment. It's these small moments; these little things that we should live for.
Thinking about it now there are many little pleasures in life that are overlooked when we dwell on all that is going wrong in our lives. I'm guilty of it, and heavily! I still haven't quite figured it out yet – I haven't quite worked out how to be truly, inexplicably, happy again but I'll let you know when I do. Until then I feel I should mention the little things, the things that count to me and maybe they resonate with you too ;
- Coming home to your family after weeks apart and feeling the warmth and love as soon as you walk through the front door. You know you've missed them but it didn't register until now just how much
- Waking up in the morning and realizing you've been cuddled up to your partner all night and neither of you have moved at all. You realize in that moment just how lucky you are to be able to see that face every morning
- Going to the cupboard and realizing you actually didn't eat the last chocolate bar so you've got a sweet snack
- The bus arrives just as you get to the stop – no need to wait in the cold today
- The barista gave you a grande instead of a tall and apologizes to you as if it was a bad thing – you couldn't be happier and in fact thank them for the slip-up
- Walking into your room after a cold, brisk walk and feeling like you just got a warm hug from your comforter
- Those odd mornings where you actually get to sleep in!
- Warm, freshly baked cookies
- The funny Snapchats you get from your family that allow you to feel like you are home with them
- Your song comes on and the friend/family member next to you is prepared to duet with you
Appreciate the little things – sometimes it just takes a little shift in focus to turn your whole mood around!

After a lengthy discussion with my hubby about my inability to digest lettuce (which I thought was a universal problem, just like corn) I decided to Google it. I googled whether or not lettuce is hard to digest. Well, to my dismay I found out my hubby was right, most people do digest lettuce just fine. But those with IBS and other gut issues tend to have a problem processing the leafy roughage. This led me to a site called SCD Lifestyle. It's definitely a monetized site, with e-books and personalized treatment strategies, but the few articles I read got me interested in the SCD Diet.
I looked up various pins on Pinterest with recipes, and I looked at different blogs sharing recipes. I found the Breaking the Vicious Cycle web site and looked over the list of legal and illegal foods. Then I thought to myself, I need to try this. This is for me. Maybe I can actually start to feel like a human again.
But first... I need to do a gluten test and get blood work done.* So I did. I ate my heart out for 2 months. I ate donuts, bavarian cream to be exact. Pizza and beer. Bagels in NYC. More beer, and chocolate cake. Then more beer. I really missed drinking beer. And I thought to myself if I test positive for Celiac, I'm never going to be able to drink a real beer again! After feeling like crap for the two months of the test and having absolutely no energy I finally went in for my blood test. Not only did the Doc test me for Celiac disease, he ran an allergy panel and he tested my thyroid. A week later I called for my results... (To be continued when I feel like typing some more)
*From my research I realized that an earlier test that I had taken for Celiac's disease was probably not accurate since I had not eaten wheat for a year. My current doctor informed me that I would need to eat wheat for at least 6-8 weeks prior to the test for a more accurate test. The testing for Celiac isn't the most reliable, but it does help things if you eat wheat before you go in. Most of what I could find said to eat 4-6 servings a day for the 6-8 weeks. No wonder I felt so badly!

The public display of one's talent is important in the process of becoming who you are. Competitive shows, which air right across the country give ordinary people a chance to improve their skills and talents while also coping with the ongoing pressure that comes with fame. It is a great way to start a career as it provides the contestant with experience and knowledge on how to deal with cameras and paparazzi as well as the many rumours that circulate around the media.
Statistics have shown that rising stars who begin on competitive shows are 27% less likely to suffer from stress and emotional issues as those who rose to fame on their own. Psychologist Ian Somers explains, 'a star has to cope with many issues in their everyday life on their own which often come emotional and physical consequences. Through competitive TV shows, they are able to slowly progress through the rise of fame, gradually dealing with media and fan base while being guided by experienced mentors. This provides them with the experience and support they need to keep a stabilised mental health status. '
Not only do shows like this benefit the people involved, they also provide a great source of inspiration for viewer's right across the world. Master Chef has a diverse fan base, which includes young children who are inspired to learn how to cook and create. This skill is essential in life and learning at an early age with greatly enhance the child's abilities as they progress through life. Shows like X Factor and Australia's Got Talent also offer encouragement to the younger and even older generations, to strive for their goal because anything is possible.
Television shows have such a big impact on society so it is only right to be portraying a positive image and promoting self-confidence and belief. Both of these aspects are positively publicized through the use of reality and competitive television shows. From these shows come inspiring stories and positive people which allow the world to see the real them and understand real life struggles that come with growing up and living life. The Biggest Loser is a great example of a positive influence. It inspires and creates opportunities for everyday people to get into shape and improve their lifestyle. This has a good feel to it and is truly inspirational to all members of the public.
In a survey conducted by our researchers at The Shore shows that 79% of people prefer television competition shows to soap operas and other genres. When asked their reasons, the common response was simply that it was much more relatable. These types of programs promote real people and real talents instead of the usual dramatic scene that is common in television shows. Most of these programs are audience based, allowing viewers to state their opinion and have their say. This gives them a sense of power as they are able to express.
Competitive television shows have a clear impact on the audience and should continue to promote the use of real people and real talents for entertainment.

On my NCAA Opening Line Report story Monday , I wrote about LSU firing Coach Les Miles and that I was sure some site would offer a prop on who the Tigers' next full-time coach would be. BookMaker came through.
I said that Houston's Tom Herman and Florida State's Jimbo Fisher would be the two favorites, and they were at +100 and +250, respectively. Both were of course asked about the job this week and both said they were only focused on their current teams and happy where they were. Neither said I'm absolutely 100 percent staying put, though. But then I think all coaches have learned from when Nick Saban was the head coach of the Miami Dolphins and said flat out that he "wasn't going to be the Alabama coach." Of course not long after saying that, he was.

Saban is frankly the reason why Miles was fired and why a lot of coaches get out of the SEC because they can't beat his Crimson Tide. Including Miles' firing, there have now been 24 head coaching changes in the SEC since Saban arrived at Alabama in 2007. Seven of the coaches leaving or being fired had won either a national title or SEC title during their career. Hey, if you can't beat 'em, run.
LSU is a 13-point home favorite this week against Missouri but could be in some trouble if Leonard Fournette doesn't play. He suffered a high-ankle sprain in fall camp, bruised that ankle Week 1 vs. Wisconsin, missed the second game and then apparently banged it up again in last week's loss to Auburn and will be a game-time decision. Mizzou running back Alex Ross, a transfer from Oklahoma, is expected to play. He had 67 yards on 18 carries in Week 1 at West Virginia but then hurt his ankle early in Week 2 and hasn't played since. Ross is also a very good kick returner.
Here are some news, notes and any major line moves for some of Saturday's games around the country, in no particular order. The biggest line move by far was No. 3 Louisville shockingly going from as high as +3.5 to -2 at No. 5 Clemson in the game of the day. I touched on that game Monday.
Virginia at Duke (-3.5, 62): Line has been steady but total has risen 1.5 points. Could be a trap game for the Blue Devils off their huge upset win at Notre Dame last week. They came out of that game really banged up as well. Out for the season are linebacker Tinashe Bere, an honorable mention freshman All-American last year, and senior defensive back DeVon Edwards. Out this week at least are top running back Jela Duncan and linebacker Dominic McDonald. Duncan has rushed for 314 yards and four touchdowns on 56 carries. Duke has won six of the past eight meetings but lost 42-34 at UVA last year.
Syracuse vs. Notre Dame (-10.5, 73): Speaking of those Irish, they opened as 13-point favorites for this neutral-site matchup at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. And it will be the first game for new defensive coordinator Greg Hudson, who had been serving as a defensive analyst, whatever that is. Coach Brian Kelly fired D-coordinator Brian VanGorder following the embarrassing lost to Duke. Considering how that unit looked against the Blue Devils, Michigan State and Texas, it was deserved. Somewhat interesting, though, that Kelly had vehemently backed VanGorder following the loss to Sparty. The Irish rank No. 103 in total defense and No. 101 in points allowed. One thing Syracuse can do under new coach Dino Babers and his up-tempo offense is score. But QB Eric Dungey is in question with an undisclosed injury. Babers has given no hints as to what's going on. Dungey is averaging 341.8 passing yards per game (No. 8 in country) with nine TDs. Zack Mahoney would start if Dungey can't and Mahoney has game experience from last season.
No. 11 Tennessee at No. 25 Georgia (+3, 52): If the Vols win this game, you can pretty much put them in the SEC Championship Game in Atlanta because they would have the head-to-head tiebreaker over Georgia (which would then have two SEC losses already) and Florida, which Tennessee beat last week. It's Game 2 of a murderous four-game stretch for UT as it goes to No. 9 Texas A&M next week and is home to No. 1 Alabama the following. But after that, it's clear sailing all the way to the Georgia Dome. There's a solid chance the Dawgs will be without star tailback Nick Chubb, who blew out his knee in last year's 38-31 Tennessee home win. Chubb has recovered from that but left last Saturday's 45-14 loss at Ole Miss in the second quarter with a sprained ankle and did not return. Georgia has good depth at tailback, but none of those other guys are Chubb, who has rushed for 422 yards and three touchdowns.
Oklahoma at No. 21 TCU (+3.5, 69.5): This opened with OU at -2. I honestly think Coach Bob Stoops might be forced out of Norman if the Sooners lose this game. They were a popular pick to win the Big 12 and return to the College Football Playoff this year with a ton of returning talent. But the Sooners didn't belong on the same field as Houston in Week 1 or Ohio State in Week 3. OU won' t make the playoff but at least could still win the Big 12 and reach a major bowl game. Likely not, though, with a loss in Fort Worth. Oklahoma will be minus two defensive starters in linebacker Tay Evans and end Matt Dimon due to injury. But tackle Matt Romar should go after missing the OSU game with a concussion. TCU, which remains without big-play receiver/returner KaVontae Turpin for a few more weeks, is breaking out some really cool helmets for this "blackout" game. TCU is 1-3 vs. Oklahoma since joining the Big 12, but the games have been decided by a total of 15 points.

A lord in Britain was having an affair with a woman when her husband came back home. "I will hide you in the closet, come into here, quickly!"
Hours later, they went to sleep and the woman forgot completely her lover. Then, she said to her husband: "Are you going to buy me a new TV, darling?" Her husband, a very religious man, answered: "The Lord who is watching us will buy it for me," he said as he pointed at a picture of Jesus.
"Are you going to buy me a new car, darling?" "The Lord who is watching us will buy it for me." While she continued asking for things, her lover inside the closet thought they were referring to him, so he flew into a rage, got out of the closet and told him: "Hey, you should buy something too. Who the hell do you think I am? The King?"

Prisoner B-3087 by Alan Gratz
Prisoner B-3087 follows a Jewish boy named Yanek Gruener, and his astonishing story of survival. Taken away from his home at only ten years old, Yanek had no idea of the horror to come. Sadistic officers, back-breaking labor and death of loved ones are all struggles Yanek had to face as World War II raged around him. Yet with his strong will and courage in the face of adversity, Yanek manages to survive ten concentration camps, and, being the last member of his family, carry on the family name.
What I Thought of Prisoner B-3087
This book really opens your eyes to the atrocities of the Holocaust. It was well-written, and had many details regarding the many concentration camps and the death march. Additionally, the book is almost impossible to put down! I recommend this book to everyone over the age of 12; you won't be disappointed.
A memorable moment in the novel was when Yanek Gruener helped a dying boy during the death march, instead of taking his food rations. It showed how benevolent Yanek is, and how he didn't give in to the temptation.

It took me approximately four hours to read A.J. Jacobs' third book, The Guinea Pig Diaries: My Life as an Experiment. In it, he describes several month-long challenges he takes part in, and their consequent results. I feel a strange connection to this man and his projects (see here, here, and here, plus posts from April and May of 2011).
For me, challenges like refraining from a certain type of food or doing a certain activity every day give me something to focus on. It's a boost when I manage to complete a challenge, it's something to blog about, and I believe total immersion in something is a great way to learn about it. There was a time when I exclusively read books about people's year-long projects, most of them related to environmentalism or the ethical consumption of food.
And now I get to be a part of someone else's project, which of course I'm all about. The Disposable Film Project is in its early stages right now. I know this because I am the first person with one of the disposable cameras, and I have yet to send it to the next DFPer, the unsinkable Stephanie Salinis. (Note to Lara: wanted to wait until I dyed my hair before starting...the dirty dishwater blonde was not about to be immortalized for this.)
Today I am taking picture number 2 for the project, one of my city/neighborhood. I know a certain image comes to mind when one thinks of Chicago, but I don't live in the Loop, the Gold Coast, or at Wrigley. Shoot, I don't even live at Mercy Home anymore. No worries, the Logan Square/Humboldt Park/Bucktown/Wicker Park neighborhood has plenty of photo-ops: just the other day the traveling circus next door practiced juggling bowling pins.

From drawings to installation to movie and work shop, the audience is drawn into Takeshi's world of unique works produced through distinctive expressionism. Additional pieces created after the Paris exhibition will also be revealed. Don't miss your chance to feel Kitano's incisive sensitivity!

In college, we had the Gucci and Ghetto HEB. (San Antonio, TX) Grad School: Swanky and S****y Schnucks. (St Louis, MO)
I am in Washington, DC now… and like every other town before it, you guys are too cool for the room; the locals have (yet again) categorized our grocery stores with cute nicknames. Here, Safeway has taken over our landscape. Sure, there is the Giant, Harris Teeter, Trader Joe's and Whole Foods… (not to mention Wegmans, if you have the time and gas money to go out into the suburbs…). But you are NOT a *true* Washingtonian unless you shop regularly at your local urban Safeway. As someone who has lived here long enough and has set foot in most of them, I think I know all of our store naming jargon. (Some of it is made up and/or altered – if you don't like it… write your own blog.)
[Note: I'm on my fifth(?) day of sharing my neighbor's internet. Verizon still hasn't gotten around to fixing my connection. As such, this post (again) will be shorter/more half a$$ed than usual. Grrrr…]
So let's get on with it… Below is the Safeway Shuffle. I'll do this from west to east (sort of), to amuse myself.
Social Safeway (Georgetown)
The most "famous" Safeway… seriously, are they holding a happy hour there? This is the Safeway you go to to hob nob with the uber weathy, the trust fund college students and the diplomat community. In true Washington form, private events and galas are held here… between the frozen and the produce aisles. (Sadly, I'm not joking.)
But between all of that nonsense, people actually "meet" at the Social Safeway. Want a significant other? Start shopping here. A new BFF??? That'll be in Aisle 2. Interested in meeting other urban hippes? They are all in the organic foods and/or sushi section. If you say hi… if you're cute enough, they'll say hi back.
Senior Safeway (Watergate)
You know, back in the 1970s, one of our former presidents got in trouble for breaking into some of the offices herein. Well, I don't think anyone has moved out since that era. The AARP crowd shops here. I'm sure the shelves are stocked with Fixodent™, tapioca pudding… and hopefully, condoms.
Soviet Safeway (Dupont)/Socialist Safeway(Rosslyn, VA)
I'm lumping these two stores into one category because they have pretty much the same issue – they are both mindblowingly awful in terms of selection, size and clientele. Oh, let me delineate, in great detail, my woes…
- Both are teeny-tiny; just a bit bigger than a 7-11. (Indeed, the Rosslyn location probably was classified as a fall out shelter; it's in the basement of a high-story tower);
- They can't even stock the basics, and what they are able to provide is definitely sub par. And just to insult you, what is there… is terribly overpriced. You can see the economic theories of supply and demand immediately at work;
- The produce, meat and seafood, to be kind, lacks in freshness and absence of mold; but more than makes up for it in skank; and
- During holidays and natural disasters, I take a field trip just to gawk at all of the well-educated professionals fight over the last package of no-name brand toilet paper.
The U.S.S.R never had anything on these shopping experiences. (Or is it the other way around?) In any case, everyone loses. And the reality makes even less sense because both of these Safeways are in very wealthy parts of their respective communities. Go figure.
Sandinista Safeway (Columbia Heights/Mount Pleasant)
In a nod to American idiocracy/racism, everything south of the border is well… Mexico. This is the grocery store where you stock up on your Goya products, Inca Cola and Virgin Mary candles. If you spend enough time in there, you may very well learn Spanish too.
Sexy Safeway (5th and L Street, NW)
I don't know about this one. The only thing "sexy" about this location is its exterior: full of glass and steel. Inside… it's nice. But I'm guessing the sexy people shop at the Whole Foods… or they are sending their housekeepers to pick up supplies for them.
This Safeway does boast a large wine department though… after a few glasses, everybody looks sexxxy, I suppose.
Swanky Safeway (Southwest)
Ya, I don't have a good nickname for perhaps the nicest Safeway near downtown DC. I went in there once… and immediately freaked out because it was TOO large. I felt like I entered the freakin' Mall of America of grocery stores, and I immediately became dizzy with vertigo.
Well, for how well stocked and suburban-y it feels… nobody ever goes there. Because it's on the GREEN LINE.
Surly Safeway
Have you ever been to the Safeway near the Potomac Avenue metro? You'd remember, as you are shopping with 3,000 of your closest friends… and are subsequently standing 50 deep in line with them too. That fact should be bad enough, but what really gets me panting… is the check out staff. They hate you. For being you. And they are not afraid to screw with you if you look at them wrong.
Seriously, I'm sorry that you are being paid minimum wage to deal with us poor souls. But can you please not overcharge me for that can of beans I'm trying to buy? Thanks.
Not-So Safeway (H Street Corridor-ish)
Previously, this nickname was held by the Capitol Hill location… but now that the neighborhood is quickly gentrifying, it's probably not as dodgy anymore. But north of Capitol Hill, around H Street? You might not want to stop there at night… unless you like the music of shotgun blasts while you pick out your Wonder Bread.
Ya. In the city, we hate our choices in grocery stores. But for most of us, Safeway is the closest supermarket, so we'll continue to shop there. Well played, Safeway. Well played.

The Parysongsan Stone Pagodas are located in Masan.
Parysongsan (lit, "Eight Dragons Mountain") is a 328-meter mountain located in Yangdeok-dong of Masan spreading towards Bongam-dong. The name of the mountain originated with the legend that eight dragons came down from heaven to the mountain.
The mountain was originally called Ballyongsan ("Earthbound Dragon Mountain"), but its current name has gradually gained favor since the liberation of Korea in 1945.
The construction of Paryongsan Stone Pagodas was begun on March 23, 1993 by Yi Sam-yong, a resident of Yangdeok-dong, who was moved by pity by the tragic situation of families divided by the Korean War. Since then, he has continued to build stone pagodas to soothe the grief of divided families, praying for family reunions and Korean reunification. His ultimate aim is to build 1,000 pagodas.
The story behind the stone pagodas has received extensive media coverage, turning them into a major tourist attraction in the area. Their location has now been designated as one of the Nine Scenic Views of Masan.

Isaiah 6:1-8, Psalm 93:1-2 & 5, Matthew 24-33
My Beloved, our experience ought to be like that of the prophet Isaiah each time we gather to celebrate the Sacred Liturgy. At every Eucharistic celebration the Holy Place is filled with Your Presence, the angels and the archangels, the cherubim and the seraphim and all saints join us in worship as we praise, glorify and thank God for His goodness, mercy and love. We join the sacrifice of our lives with the one, holy and perfect sacrifice offered by You to the Father as the Lamb of Sacrifice, the willing Victim and the Altar of Sacrifice to take away the sins of the world. You touch the lips of all present with the fiery coal of love, You cleanse us and fit us to receive the great commission anew as You say, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" And we respond, "Here I am. Send me!"Psalm 93:1-2 & 5
My Beloved, God has raised You up and given You dominion over all that is in heaven and on earth. You reign over all creation. Robed in glory and majesty and seated on the throne of mercy, justice and righteousness You rule over all the earth. You are girded with the strength of God and Your throne is everlasting. The world is saved, redeemed and sanctified by You. It belongs to You and so does everything in it and the power of darkness will never prevail against it.
Your Word is true, Your commands are just and Your Church, the house where You dwell in fullness, will stand firm from age to age until You come again in glory to judge the living and the dead.
Matthew 24-33
My Beloved, there is a banquet for the soul in all these verses. There is so much You say to Your disciples, Your followers, the members of Your Church. It seems too much to take in all at once. Each of us is called to be Your icon in the world. You assure us that if You were persecuted we can expect persecution as well. You tell us not to be afraid for You are Emmanuel, God with us. No matter how evil the plots of the enemy, no matter how surreptitiously they work, their evil deeds will be uncovered and they will be shamed.
All that the Church received from You as seed will grow and flourish and birds of every kind will nest in her and be fed by her bountiful fruit.
Our soul belongs to You and nothing but sin can kill it so although the enemy crushes our body they can do no more. We are more precious to You than many sparrows and Your knowledge of us is so intimate and complete that You know the number of hairs on our head.
As long as we stand with You we triumph but against You and apart from You we will discover that the Father will not acknowledge us, will not recognize us and will declare that He does not know us.
Never ever let me parted from You my Beloved.

Legislative Update #5: February 7-13, 2011
submitted by Edward Raventon, lobbyist for the SD Chapter of the Sierra Club
HB 1195, an attempt to undermine and/or nullify every conservation easement attached to a piece of property sold in the state was killed in committee 10 to 3. We worked hard to kill this bill and I want to thank everyone who contacted his or her legislators to oppose it. It had wide opposition at the hearing from conservation lobbyist, private citizens and the State Bar and Municipal League on legal grounds. I hope we don't have to deal with the issue again for a while.
HB 1166, an act "to restrict, under certain circumstances, the transfer of certain land parcels by the federal government" attempted to do the same thing as HB 1195 by subjecting every conservation easement land sale in excess of 30 acres to the Federal Government (i.e. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service) to the public scrutiny of local county commissions. It was also killed. Chris Hesla, Paul Lepisto and I were primary in testifying against this anti-conservation piece of legislation.
We got clobbered 12 to 0 on HB 1047, a bill to "revise certain prairie dog shooting season provisions". This bill rolled back every regulation regarding the shooting of prairie dogs. The usual ranchers south of the Conata Basin showed up with their hard luck stories of ranching in the marginal, near desert conditions of the Badlands. It's a tough place to scratch out a living in the cow business but I can't fault the prairie dogs for loving the Conata Basin area. It is ideal habitat for them due to the sparse, scarcity of grass. Prairie Dogs were nonetheless excoriated, demonized and railed against by the committee along with the Black footed ferret.
Essentially this bill if enacted into law will simply legalize an already, fairly common de facto practice of shooting prairie dogs whenever they want. I believe its limited over all effect will be more psychological than practical.
SB 180 an act to "impose a fee on certain pipelines carrying crude oil and to create a crude oil pipeline compensation fund that may be used in the event of a crude oil spill" was deferred until next Tuesday. I will support this piece of legislation along with Dakota Rural Action's lobby and feel fairly confident that it has a good chance of passing out of committee.
SB 158 is a pro-industry, uranium mining bill that seeks to "toll (i.e. suspend) the Department of Environment and Natural Resources administrative rules on underground injection control Class III wells and in situ leach mining until the department obtains primary enforcement authority of the comparable federal programs". This bill is an attempt to bypass the State DENR local regulatory authority in favor of the authority of the EPA and the NRC (Nuclear Regulatory Commission), national agencies distantly removed from where the actual mining is proposed to take place. The site is in the Dewey-Burdock area on the far western side of the Black Hills, northwest of Edgemont on the Wyoming line. It is remote even by SD standards and will need to be carefully and effectively monitored locally as the mining company is another foreign Canadian enterprise like Brohm Mining which created and then abruptly left an ugly superfund site in the northern Black Hills when it went bankrupt in 1999. This bill was deferred until next Tuesday morning. I will oppose it vigorously next week.

Though hurricanes are not as common in the Caribbean as many people think, they do hit land a few times a year, and those traveling during the hurricane high season should be educated on what to expect from different hurricanes – ranging from Category 1 to Category 5-strength according to the Saffir-Simpson Scale.
What what is the Saffir-Simpson Scale, and what do these categories mean?
Definition: The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale is a 1 to 5 categorization based on a hurricane's intensity and wind. The scale – originally developed by wind engineer Herb Saffir and meteorologist Bob Simpson - is used by the National Weather Service's National Hurricane Center and is the globally accepted standard for measuring the strength of tropical cyclones (hurricanes).
The scale includes:
- Category One Hurricane (Sustained winds 74-95 mph, 64-82 kt, or 119-153 km/hr): Very dangerous winds will produce some damage, including minor damage to exterior of homes, toppled tree branches, uprooting of smaller trees, extensive damage to power lines, and power outages.
- Category Two Hurricane (Sustained winds 96-110 mph, 83-95 kt, or 154-177 km/hr): Has extremely dangerous winds that will cause extensive damage, including major damage to exterior of homes, uprooting of small trees and blocked roads blocked, and guaranteed power outages for long periods of time -- days to weeks
- Category Three Hurricane (Sustained winds 111-130 mph, 96-113 kt, or 178-209 km/hr): Devastating damage will occur with such storms, including extensive damage to exterior of homes, many trees uprooted and many roads blocked, and extremely limited availability of water and electricity
- Category Four Hurricane (Sustained winds 131-155 mph, 114-135 kt, or 210-249 km/hr): These powerful storms can cause catastrophic damage, including loss of roof structure and/or some exterior walls, most trees uprooted and most power lines down, isolated residential access due to debris pile up, and power outages lasting for weeks to months
- Category Five Hurricane (Sustained winds greater than 155 mph, greater than 135 kt, or greater than 249 km/hr): Catastrophic damage will occur. A high percentage of homes will be destroyed, fallen trees and power lines will isolate residential areas, power outages will last for weeks to months, and most areas will be uninhabitable.
For a more detailed explanation of the scale, see the National Hurricane Center website.
The Category 1 Hurricane Danny hit Lake Charles, Louisiana in 1985 and developed from tropical storm, to Cat 1 hurricane, then back to tropical storm.
The Category 2 Hurricane Erin hit the Atlantic coast of Florida in 1995 causing flooding, downed trees, and a plane crash once it hit Jamaica.
The Category 3 Hurricane Katrina famously hit Louisiana in 2005 causing extensive damage, especially that caused by the breaking of the levee system in New Orleans. It was the deadliest hurricane in the U.S. since the 1928 Okeechobee hurricane.
The Category 4 Great Galveston Hurricane struck Galveston, Texas in 1900 and included powerful winds and a 15-foot storm surge that destroyed homes and buildings.
The Category 5 Hurricane Andrew wreaked devastating damage across south Florida in 1992.
Caribbean Travel During Hurricane Season
For more information on travel to the Caribbean as it relates to hurricanes, check out our guide to myths and truths about hurricanes in the Caribbean.
When booking Caribbean travel, keep in mind that certain islands are more susceptible to being hit by storms than others -- Bermuda and the Bahamas hang out at the top of the likely suspects, while the southernmost islands of the Caribbean – Aruba, Barbados, Curacao, etc. – and the Western Caribbean are less likely to be hit than the Eastern islands.
