As an integral part of the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT), Environmental Planning (EP) coordinates, prepares, and provides the environmental compliance for ADOT projects. The EP oversees the preparation of environmental documents in accordance with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). These interdisciplinary documents ensure that project associated environmental impacts and subsequent mitigation measures are addressed and implemented appropriately through construction.
In the absence of a federal action that would require NEPA, ADOT projects require a similar, state-level environmental evaluation process. Unless otherwise noted, this guidance refers to the federal NEPA process for projects that are funded or permitted by FHWA, but many steps are applicable to the state-level environmental evaluation.
The EP NEPA Process Guidance is an on-line resource to aid ADOT, local public agencies and consultants in planning, preparing, and submitting environmental documents in support of proposed transportation federal aid projects. This guidance provides users with information and technical direction to develop, maintain, mitigate, and monitor projects that are in compliance with applicable federal and state laws.
For additional local public agency guidance, reference the ADOT Local Public Agency Projects Manual.
EP works with ADOT staff through all phases of transportation project development, from planning through operations. Through the Multimodal Planning Division, ADOT employs a multi-phased project development process that integrates environmental requirements with engineering design. Adhering to the NEPA process, EP conducts environmental analyses to determine if a project will have an impact on the environment. This determination is used as a guide for how a project should be developed to avoid, minimize, or off-set impacts to the environment.
NEPA [42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.] was signed into law on January 1, 1970, establishing a national environmental policy and goals for the protection, preservation, and enhancement of the environment. Governed by the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ), NEPA provides a process for federal agencies to carry out these goals. The NEPA process is initiated when a federal agency plans to take an action. This may include providing federal funding, such as Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) federal aid program monies, use of federally managed lands such as the US Forest Service, or approving a federal permit, such as a permit from the U.S. Army Corp. of Engineers (Corps). Once it is determined that the project must follow the NEPA process, a clear understanding of the purpose and need for the project is developed. Through NEPA scoping, input regarding the proposed project is solicited from the public and other potentially affected federal, state, tribal and local agencies. Based on the purpose and need as well as the scoping input, alternatives are developed and analyses of potentially affected resources are performed. A draft NEPA document is developed based on the information gathered and, in the case of an environmental assessment (EA) or an environmental impact statement (EIS), the draft document is published for review by the public. Following an analysis of the comments received, and potential additional technical analyses, the final NEPA document is developed, including the identified mitigation measures. The mitigation measures from a categorical exclusion (CE), EA, or EIS are integrated into the engineering design and ultimately implemented and monitored long-term when appropriate.
In general, the steps of the NEPA process correspond to phases of the project and include the following:
As indicated, EP facilitates the environmental review under NEPA (or the state-level process) in parallel to ADOT's project development process. During the project development planning phase, the funding sources for the project are defined. During project scoping, the permitting requirements for the project are identified, and the presence or absence of federal or tribal land ownership in the area of study are confirmed. These elements determine if the NEPA process is required or if the project should conduct a state-level environmental review. A preliminary assumption of the level of documentation required is typically made at this point. Concurrent with the project development design phase, EP has extensive involvement in the project to manage the NEPA process and analyses and oversee the production of the environmental document. During the design phase and in consultation with the appropriate agencies, the level of documentation required is determined based upon the complexity of the project, the affected environment, and the anticipated environmental impacts. For example, the technical analyses may result in the development of additional alternatives or public review of the draft NEPA document may result in additional technical analyses. At the conclusion of the development of the NEPA document the agreed upon mitigation measures are incorporated into the engineering plans, specifications, and cost estimates. EP involvement may continue through the construction phase to confirm the agreed upon mitigation is implemented and that the mitigation is monitored during the operations phase.
The NEPA process consists of an evaluation of the potential environmental effects of a proposed federal action. There are three classes of actions, which stipulate the level of documentation required during the FHWA implementation of the NEPA process (23 CFR § 771.115):
In the development of the appropriate NEPA document, EP coordinates and consults with local, state, and federal agencies. Ultimately, the type of document developed is at the discretion of the federal agencies involved.
Technical analyses may consider the following environmental factors depending on the nature of the project:
ADOT staff, consultants, and cooperating agencies have different roles and responsibilities throughout the environmental evaluation and documentation process. The lead federal agency, typically FHWA for ADOT projects, is the final decision maker within the NEPA process. Other federal agencies, together with state, local or tribal agencies may function as joint lead, cooperating, or participating agencies.
Public involvement plays an important role in the NEPA process. Near the outset of the NEPA process (and depending on the level of documentation required), the public is invited to participate in the scoping process by receiving project information and by attending public scoping meetings and submitting comments to the lead agency. Public comments provide valuable information on issues to be addressed as part of the environmental analyses. During the development of a NEPA document, the lead federal agency documents and incorporates input from the public into its decision making process. The CEQ document A Citizen's Guide to the NEPA: Having Your Voice Heard provides further detail regarding the NEPA process and the role of the public.

5-FTSC reacts with ketones to yield relatively stable hydrazones and with aldehydes to yield hydrazones that are somewhat less stable, though they may be formed faster (compared to ketones). These hydrazones are generally reduced with sodium borohydride (NaBH4) to further increase the stability of the linkage. 5-FTSC has been used to make a wide variety of biomolecules such as L-aspartase-a-decarboxylase, enzyme-oxidized live plant protoplasts, immunoglobulins, thrombin and antithrombin.

House Committee On Ways And Means Marks Up H.R. 5 The "Senior Citizens' Freedom To Work Act Of 2000"
On February 29, 2000, the House Committee on Ways and Means marked up H.R. 5, the "Senior Citizens' Freedom to Work Act of 2000." The House will consider the bill on March 1, 2000.
As reported by the full committee, the bill would eliminate the Social Security retirement earnings test in and after the month in which a person attains normal retirement age.
Elimination of the retirement test would be effective with respect to taxable years ending after 12/31/99.
The current law regarding the retirement earnings test would apply to those individuals attaining age 65 in calendar year 2000 for the months before they attained age 65.

I took the sign of four ravens, perched high in a tall juniper near the casita in the rain, as a good omen. I've always been a friend to crows and crooked beaks. A rainbow over the mesa at dusk didn't hurt my feelings, either. There have been hummingbirds visiting daily. And this morning, as Steve wrote in silence by the window at daybreak, the golden hued coyote that trotted past hunting for rabbits made us both smile in gratitude. This is a dream come true all right. But as a wise soul once said, be careful what you wish for. You just might get it. In other words, be ready for it when it comes. Be awake. Be open. Shed the old. Embrace the different.
The desert is living, sacred ground with a heartstopping spirit of place. You sense life force in every direction. Presence. Vigilance. And dreaming. The desert conjures her own dreams, you soon realise; and you are only a grain in the palm of her sweeping change.
As we settle in and cook and read and walk and converse, the desert infuses us. The skies exhilarate us. The vivid moon and stars inspire us.
Next, I will post recipes, and photographs of my new kitchen, my painting studio, our kivas [we have two!]. Until then, I thought I'd share some slices of our view.
Thank you all for your messages these past weeks - I read every one - and it made me full and fat with gratitude.

The Home of Fly Fishing in New Zealand - Great Lake Taupo
The Lake Taupo region is the home of fly fishing in New Zealand, with a unique trout fishery and all year round fly fishing options.
1 / 4
Lake Taupo trout fishing has been world famous since Zane Grey first visited and wrote about his fishing adventures in Tales of the Angler's Eldorado in the 1920's.
Turangi is known as the 'Trout Fishing Capital of New Zealand' and is a great base for fly fishing. Appropriately, the town is home to the Tongariro National Trout Centre hatchery, museum and freshwater aquarium. Running through the town, the Tongariro River is the largest and most important spawning river in the Taupo District.
The Tongariro and Tauranga-Taupo Rivers, which feed Lake Taupo, provide world class year-round fishing. Each year an estimate is made of how many fish run the river to spawn and this gives an indication of the health of the fishery (currently in extremely robust health!). The Tongariro River is well known all over the world for the fishing quality it provides. Ever since Zane Grey fished the river and promoted it in his book, the river has gained a reputation as a world-class river to fish for prime rainbow and brown trout.
Other popular rivers to fish are the Hinemaia River at Hatepe, the Tauranga-Taupo River and the Waitahanui River, famed for its 'picket fence' along the river mouth as it enters Lake Taupo. These streams and tributaries all combine to provide trout with an outstanding spawning habitat and protected areas for rearing young fish. A special feature of the Taupo District is that the lower parts of the main rivers are open to fishing all year round.
Taupo fly fishing guides provide anglers with fabulous wilderness fishing in the surrounding rivers and streams amongst some of the most beautiful scenery in New Zelaand. Taupo and Turangi are home to internationally recognised fishing lodges which provide resident fly fishing guides and specialise in catering fo rthe overseas angler.
However if you decide to give it a go on your own, don't forget to buy a special Taupo fishing license. These can be purchased from i-SITE Visitor Information Centres in Taupo and Turangi, or from any fishing or outdoor shop in the region. Fish & Game licenses which are valid throughout the rest of New Zealand cannot be used in the Taupo District.
To find the best spots and hear the hot tips drop into any fishing or outdoor shop and caht ot some of the local characters. While you are there appropriate gear can be hired or purchased.
And remember, trout cannot be bought or sold commercially within New Zealand, however many local restaurants will happily prepare and serve privately caught fish.

RIDLER. There are only a couple of awards in hot rodding that really count. One is the Don Ridler Memorial Award, given annually since 1964 to the best new car in the Detroit Autorama. Local racer, builder, and aluminum fabricator extraordinaire Al Bergler earned the very first Ridler with a homebuilt race car he still owns. "I've won a lot of drag races and a lot of trophies and awards," he says, 47 years later. "But the Ridler never goes away. Everybody knows who won the first one, but hardly anyone remembers who won the second."
Al grew up within earshot of Michigan's old Motor City Speedway, listening to those screaming engines. When he was old enough, he got a job there selling popcorn, peanuts, and programs, just to be near the excitement. Right out of high school, he went to work in a body shop and started learning the trade that would shape the rest of his life, along with a whole lot of sheetmetal.
Bergler's first race car was a '34 Ford three-window coupe, bought for $50. He immediately swapped in a 392 Chrysler Hemi and went drag racing at Motor City Dragway. Next came a mid-engined Crosley, then a Chassis Research slingshot cloaked in Austin Bantam bodywork, both powered by the same 392. That Competition Coupe marked his first collaboration with a couple of other Detroit drag racing legends, Ron and Gene Logghe. In the process of building a front axle and suspension for Bergler's Aggravation, the brothers became Al's friends. The trio's combined talents would later produce More Aggravation, the Bantam that won the '64 Ridler Award and the '66 NHRA Springnationals, and a canopied '27 T modified roadster.
When Mercury Division selected Logghe Stamping Co. to build the first one-piece, flip-top Funny Cars for 1966, the brothers subcontracted Al to do the aluminum interiors and spoilers. That was the end of his job at the body shop and the beginning of Al Bergler Enterprises. As Funny Cars exploded in popularity in the late '60s and '70s, so did Al's business. "Everybody came through my shop back then: Roland Leong, Whipple & McCulloch, Tommy Ivo, Tom McEwen, Jungle Jim," he recalls. "My neighbors saw all those rigs coming and going and thought I was raking in the money. In fact, I was losing money. All those guys were using my lights, my electricity, my tools, my phone. Then they'd just pack up and leave! But it was great fun back then."
Fun turned into a second career in 1970, when Bergler, who had graduated from Competition Eliminator to a Top Gas Dragster, grew weary of running for peanuts while his Funny Car friends were touring, match racing, and making lots of money. Teaming with Pete Seaton and Tom Prock, Al built the first Vega-bodied
Logghe fuel flopper, followed by his own successful series of Motown Shakers. In 1982, he retired from drag racing to concentrate on his first love: building hot rods. The entire Funny Car operation went to a racer in Sweden. "That was the toughest day of my life, watching all that stuff disappear down my driveway. Not one part was left."
For the next couple of decades, he resisted all temptations and invitations to return. However, the introduction of Cacklefest (by Greg Sharp and Steve Gibbs of the NHRA Museum and Hot Rod Reunions) presented an irresistible opportunity for veterans like Al to experience the sights, sounds, and smells they'd been missing–without succumbing to the addiction of actual competition. Cackling gave Al a good reason, finally, to restore one race car that he hadn't sent down the road. The Ridler-winning More Aggravation was made literally better than new when Al converted the gas-burning AA/Competition Sedan into a fueler. He and Ed Golden also restored the Probe III slingshot that Al helped create in 1968.
Of his first cackle in Golden's dragster at Bowling Green's National Hot Rod Reunion, Al says, "Mike Kuhl helped us with the engine so we could run about 80 percent, make some noise, and make some flames. A friend of mine had a '64 Cadillac with a pushbar there, so he pushed me down the strip. I did the clutch thing, hit the switch, started it up, turned it around, sat there, and cried like a baby! To be able to do this again after 30 years was just unbelievable."
At 74, Al still bends tin for himself and friends in a backyard shop crowded with race cars, hot rods, and vintage racing and street engines. Among the cars are a '55 Plymouth ready to receive a Hemi crate engine, two dragsters waiting to be restored, and Al's own chopped '40 Ford convertible, awaiting its Cadillac V8. In his basement playroom sits an astonishing collection of vintage Wurlitzer, Seeburg, and Rock-Ola jukeboxes, pinball machines, more than 40 vintage pedal cars, old shop and store clocks, neon signs, tin signs, and there, right in the middle, his big Autorama trophy from 1964. As he said, the Ridler never goes away; neither does Al Bergler.

Special Tools
Deep fryer
French Fry Cutter
(or patience for cutting potat
2 large Idaho russett potatoe
1/4 cup sugar
2 Tablespoons corn syrup
11/2-2 cups hot water
6 cups Crisco(r) shortening
1/4 cup beef lard (or save the fat from pre
viously cooked burgers)
Preparing your french fries
Peel the potatoes. In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar, corn syrup, and hot wa
ter. Make sure the sugar is dissolved. Using a french fry slicer, cut the peeled
potatoes into shoestrings. The potatoes should be 1/4" x 1/4" in thickness, and
about 4" to 6" long. (You can do this with a knife, but it is alot of work)
Place the shoestringed potatoes into the bowl of sugar-water, and refrigerate. L
et them soak about 30 minutes.
While they're soaking, pack the shortening into the deep fryer. Crank up the tem
perature to "full". The shortening has to pre-heat for a very long time. It will
eventually liquify. After it has liquified and is at least 375X, drain the potato
es and dump them into the fryer. (be careful, it will be ferocious)
After 1 to 11/2 minutes, remove the potatoes and place them on a paper towel lin
ed plate. Let them cool 8 to 10 minutes in the refrigerator.
While they're cooling, add the lard or beef drippings to the hot Crisco(r). Agai
n, crank the temperature to full. Stir in the lard as it melts into the oil. It
will blend in.
After the deep fryer is reheated to 375X-400X, add the potatoes and deep fry again
. This time for 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Remove and place in a large bowl
Sprinkle generously with salt, then "toss" the fries to mix the salt evenly. ( I
suggest about 1 teaspoon of salt, maybe slightly more)
Serve hot, serve immediately, and enjoy! Depending upon the size of the potatoes
, this recipe make about 2 medium sized fries.
Special Notes
Note1***** If you want more fries, double the recipe---but DON'T double the cook
ing oil. Just cook them in shifts, adding about 1/4 cup more Crisco(r) and 1
tablespoon lard for the second batch.
Note2***** If cooking for a minute or so, removing, and returning the fries to t
he oil seems like a pain in the ass, that's because it is. But it is an importan
"blanching" step required for that great taste.
Note3***** For an easier clone of McDonald's french fries, you can use the froze
n, pre-cut Ore-Ida(r) shoestring potatoes. Just cook them in the same combo of
Crisco(r) and lard, skipping the "blanching" process. Cook them while still froz
en for 6-10 minutes (depending upon the amount) until golden brown. They're good
but not nearly as accurate in taste and texture as the fresh recipe.

After the rather cold, gray monotony of China's cities, going to Nepal was like stumbling out into a blaze of riotous sunshine.I was pretty cranky that I didn't get to make my planned trip to Tibet (no way is China giving a visa to a western blogger), but it's hard to hold onto a grudge in Kathmandu. Because of its decades of tourism with trekkers, Kathmandu can seem almost western in its food, shopping and pursuits of pleasure, but right outside the city (and even inside) the essential Nepal comes clearly into view. From the indomitable women who have been working Heifer International programs for the last 25 years and bringing entire communities of powerless wives into economic security…To the caste system of untouchables who are likewise being included in Heifer projects and given a chance to succeed…
To the Hindu temples where cremations take place along the river (with biers divided along caste lines– even after death)..
..and milk is poured down in sacrifice to one of the 44,000 gods.Nepal boasts all the majesty and mystery of the Himalayans hovering in the distance…
…but still struggles with poverty, hunger, a chaotic communist regime, and a highly stratified society. And yet, Nepal is one of the most lovely, likeable, unforgettable countries I visited.
I want to go back: to walk the Annapurna circuit, to meet more of the women who so inspired me…
…and to see more of the work Heifer is doing in this intriguing country.
Plus, there are a few folks I need to say Namaste to. For more Nepal & more Namaste, click on the posts below:

Become an animal-owned person
Escape with Eddie
Anyone who knows an animal lover, knows just how attached they are to their pets. I have concluded that after you adopt an animal, they become the owner and give the directives to be followed.
I just finished reading Cleveland Amory's books "The Cat Who Came for Christmas," "The Cat and the Curmudgeon," and "The Best Cat Ever." Amory was a New York reviewer for TV Guide and the author of a number of books. His sense of humor was legendary and his dedication to animals extraordinary. He was the founder of Fund for Animals in 1967. He described himself as a "Dog Man," never dreaming that one day he would write a book about Polar Bear, the cat who came for Christmas. Polar Bear was a foundling who had no social standing. He came from a back alley a few blocks from Amory's apartment. That Christmas Eve was to be a stellar moment in Amory's life, as he was led on a stealth trip to rescue a cat with the Cat Lady.
The Cat Lady stated she had been stalking this alley cat for weeks and was sure that this evening she could nab him with assistance. She was right and the foundling became the guiding light in Amory's life.
As a cat lover myself, I had to laugh through the entire book. Polar Bear was discovered upon being bathed with a wash cloth and a little soap to be white as the driven snow, hence the name, Polar Bear. I highly recommend these books for anyone who has been owned by a cat. Mark Twain, being quite a cat fancier, stated once, "If man and cat were combined, the cat would be the worse for it."
My cats are all incredible role models for human ownership. Alice has first dibs on the bathroom sink every bedtime. You get the impression that she, not me, needs the toothbrush first after her bedtime snack. Oh yes, all of them get bedtime snacks; a cat could starve before morning. This is certainly true during the winter months when the wind blows and the Arctic air whistles around the eaves. Cats will certainly tell you, a fur coat is never enough, a warm bed is what's needed.
A lot of people, animal lovers like myself, give animals human attributes. This is called foolishness by many, but for those of us who get to know our furry friends well, they become our children. "Bring that ball to your mother," I will tell Emma, the dog. Naturally, like any spoiled child, she will dilly dally until I lose the energy for fetch. The ball game always lies in her court, because she brings the ball when she decides she is ready to chase it. Of course, this dog is not a terrier like my previous dog. Mac would play fetch 'til the cows come home. He never missed an opportunity to fetch thrown balls. If we wouldn't play with him, he would go to the top of the stairs and push the ball down and then chase it, retrieve it, run up the stairs, and do it all over again. That is terrier behavior. To say I miss him is an understatement.
Rereading Amory's books reminded me just how important animal rescue organizations are in our communities. The Fund for Animals did major work is saving baby seals from fur buyers and saving whales from wanton destruction. Nowadays, the United States Humane Society is a major factor in prevention of cruelty to animals. Though he was a Harvard graduate, Amory refused to donate to their alumni fund, primarily because of the use of laboratory animals.
When you wish to obtain a pet, checking with the local animal shelter is recommended. If you wish to buy a purebred animal, make sure you purchase the animal from a legitimate breeder. There are a lot of people who breed animals for profit and do not care about their welfare. Do your homework, then acquire your pet and become an animal owed person. You will never be sorry.

Given 2 objects moving at some velocity $v$ relative to one another, is it possible to determine whether they are moving or whether the space between them is expanding?
$\begingroup$ I don't like that you're starting out with a supposedly known relative velocity. You can't measure that. What you can measure is red shift. Right? $\endgroup$ – DanielSank Jan 16 '15 at 6:26
Firstly, remember what it means for space to be expanding - it doesn't mean that space is some rubbery fabric that gets pulled, it means that the metric of space is expanding. That is, the scale factor (which essentially represents the relative distance of objects) is growing in time. So, if all galaxies were separated by some distance, this distance would then be larger at a later time.
So, how could we tell that the expansion is really metric expansion, and not relative velocity ? Well, the first reason is Hubble's Law. Since the universe is undergoing metric expansion, it appears that galaxies have an apparent velocity, given by $V=H_{0}D$. So, we see that galaxies that are further away are moving away with a higher velocity. This makes sense - photons travelling from more distant galaxies must traverse more expanding space, and therefore have their wavelengths expanded by a larger amount, so that they are more redshifted. This wouldn't be the case if galaxies were just moving away from us, since we would see a wide variety of redshifts, not a pattern.
The second reason is general relativity. GR predicts that certain metrics that contain homogeneous distributions of matter (i.e. the galaxies that make up the universe) will cause metric expansion to occur. Since GR is supported by the evidence, so therefore is metric expansion.
Third is the cosmic microwave background. We observe a uniform microwave radiation that fills the universe, that has a temperature of 2.73 degrees Kelvin. Satellites that have studied it (COBE, WMAP) have determined that it has a blackbody curve, and that it has the redshift that dates it back to a time very soon after the big bang. We now know that this represents the first radiation ever emitted, 380,000 years after the big bang at the recombination, when hydrogen atoms formed.
Another reason is that when a quasar's spectrum shows absorption lines due to neutral hydrogen clouds, the redshifts of the hydrogen lines are always found to be less than the redshift of the quasar. Furthermore, examples have been found in which the absorption spectrum shows a feature called the Gunn-Peterson trough, which had been predicted earlier as a consequence of the reionization of hydrogen in the early universe.
However, your example considers only two galaxies. In that case, there is nothing that they can do to determine if they are moving apart just due to velocity, or expansion. Fortunately, we don't live in such a universe.
For the evidence for metric expansion (and the big bang) see here:
$\begingroup$ +1, this is the right answer. But i couldn't help to mention my personal views about this topic. $\endgroup$ – lurscher Aug 15 '12 at 3:18
$\begingroup$ Suppose the universe exploded from a point. Objects with larger initial velocity would, after a fixed time, be father away from other objects than would those with lower initial velocity. Therefore, your statement that more distant objects having larger red-shift is evidence for expansion doesn't make sense. $\endgroup$ – DanielSank Jan 16 '15 at 6:19
thinking about this question, one is eventually led to think of the initial attempts to formulate Mach principle; in that hypothesis, which predates the creation of General Relativity, but after Special Relativity was established, Ernst Mach especulated that, if there was no special frame of reference from where to measure absolute velocities, there should not be absolute accelerations either; objects will have an inertial response only when they are tried to be accelerated relative to the "distant background of stars". In a sense, General relativity captures that sort of behavior in the frame dragging effect confirmed by Gravity Probe B (although the data from that probe is still unclear regarding if we live in an universe with non-zero torsion or not)
But i think it is worth to mention that the dilemma of your question has a somewhat similar flavor to the Mach's dilemma, and Mark' answer is a proof of that; indeed, because all the objects are moving consistently, we classify it as a space expansion. Even if the movements are not perfectly uniform, we would say that the space expansion describes the long scale behavior of spacetime, while individual galactic motions describe the granular scale.
Who knows? maybe there is some hidden symmetry that is still eluding us, that is relevant to inertia and cosmology.
If the relative motion is due to the metric expansion of space, the relative motion is a function of the distance between the objects, i.e., the relative motion will change as the distance between the objects changes.
$\begingroup$ Since we can say that $v$=$v$(t) and the distance can be a function of $v$(t) and t, then I don't see how we can rule out one from the other even if the relative motion due to metric expansion of space is dependent upon distance between objects. Actually the more I think about it, the more this reminds me of the equivalence principle. $\endgroup$ – mcFreid Aug 14 '12 at 17:19
$\begingroup$ If $v$ is an arbitrary function of $t$ then all bets are off. I understand your question to be in the context of two objects in inertial (free falling) relative motion in a very simplified context, i.e., ignore everything else. If we have the metric of SR, the relative motion is constant with time. If we have an expanding metric, the relative motion is a function of distance. $\endgroup$ – Alfred Centauri Aug 14 '12 at 18:56
Given 2 objects moving at some velocity v relative to one another, is it possible to determine whether they are moving or whether the space between them is expanding?
No, the difference between the two interpretations is fundamentally not testable. It's a verbal distinction that doesn't appear anywhere in the actual mathematical formalism of GR. GR doesn't have global frames of reference, and therefore doesn't have any meaningful way to describe the velocity of object A relative to cosmologically distant object B. That means that the choice of one description or the other is purely one of convenience or pedagogy. Bunn 2009 and Francis 2007 give two opposing views.
That doesn't mean that cosmological observations can be explain simply by having galaxies moving inertially in flat spacetime. They can't. But what's measurable is the curvature of spacetime, not the relative velocities.
E.F. Bunn and D.W. Hogg, "The kinematic origin of the cosmological redshift," American Journal of Physics, Vol. 77, No. 8, pp. 694, August 2009, http://arxiv.org/abs/0808.1081v2
Francis et al., "Expanding Space: the Root of all Evil?," 2007, http://arxiv.org/abs/0707.0380v1
If you are allowed to make repeated measurements long stretches of time apart, then you could differentiate between a galaxy receding due to the Hubble flow and an object traveling away at a constant velocity.
For the galaxy, you'd notice that its velocity is changing between your measurements, whereas for an object traveling away at a constant velocity (in an otherwise static Universe), you would measure the same velocity at different times.
It's interesting to note that for the galaxy, Hubble's law holds to an excellent approximation, which says that
velocity = Hubble's constant x distance
However, if you perform two measurements some time apart, and the measured distance is 2x the second time around, the measured velocity would not necessarily be 2x, as Hubble's constant is in fact time dependent (not really constant). Its value depends on how much expansion has taken place and the rate at which the Universe expands at the given cosmological time.

If you've never had the pleasure of eating an In-N-Out Burger, you are missing out on one of the little, artery clogging, pleasures of life.
As for the name, it's about as basic and simple as you could get. You come in, get your burger, and go out. Fast, easy, and well.. tasty.
Inside of you is hunger, outside of you are tasty burgers for your enjoyment. You go there, get one, and satisfy your hunger. There are no burgers inside of me, so I go out, where there are burgers. Simple. Not exactly deep theology here.. right?
Can you imagine the absurdity and utter confusion of getting that basic premise wrong?
Would it be absurd? Would it be mocked? You would think so, but I recently saw this obvious error applauded and treated as if it was the deepest, most philosophical, life-changing truth imaginable by no lesser names than media mogul Oprah Winfrey and "christian" Pastor Joel Osteen.
Before you think I unfairly listed Osteen as "christian" (in quotes), let's watch his latest appearance on Oprah's "Lifeclass":
Did you catch the quote?
"You'll never rise any higher than you see yourself." – Joel Osteen
Hmm. So, how high I rise (externally/out) is based upon me (internal/in) and how I see myself (internal/in).
So the answer to the external is from within.. how I view myself, and as he states later, what words I speak about myself.
You've got to see this… Joel Osteen's view, his teaching in the role of "Pastor" is that the external is determined by the internal (You, your view, your mindset, and your words).
Sounds good, and boy, does it sell. Oprah has built a multi-billion dollar media empire. Joel Osteen "Pastors" the largest church in the United States, it's also helped sell books like "The Secret" and spin up careers of Oprah's other Lifeclass speakers. But what does scripture say? Is THIS the message of Christianity, that the internal controls the external? That it's IN that controls OUT?
The written word of God, inspired by God the Holy Spirit is clear.. it's not the SOLUTION that's in us, it's the PROBLEM!
(I'm going to intentionally quote a LOT of scripture this week. I want the sheer weight and volume of scripture which speaks to this core issue to blow you away. While Joel Osteen doesn't quote a single verse, here is a mere sampling of God's word on the issue. Read them all now, or later, but they're here for your reference.)
1. Men are born in sin:
- Psalm 51:5 – Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me.
- Genesis 8:21 – the Lord said in his heart, "I will never again curse the ground because of man, for the intention of man's heart is evil from his youth."
- Psalm 58:3 – The wicked are estranged from the womb; they go astray from birth, speaking lies.
- John 3:6 – "That which is born of the flesh is flesh"
2. As all men have sinned, they are slaves to sin:
- John 8:34 – Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave to sin."
- Titus 3:3 – For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one another.
- Galatians 4:8-9 – Formerly, when you did not know God, you were enslaved to those that by nature are not gods. But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless elementary principles of the world, whose slaves you want to be once more?
- Romans 6:6,16,17,19,20 – We know that our old self was crucified with him in order that the body of sin might be brought to nothing, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin. Do you not know that if you present yourselves to anyone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey…? But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed… For just as you once presented your members as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness leading to sanctification.For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness.
- Romans 7:14 – For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am of the flesh, sold under sin.
3. The heart of sin is UNABLE and UNWILLING to do good. It is, in fact, HOSTILE to God:
- John 3:20 – "For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed."
- Romans 8:7-8 – For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God
- Colossians 1:21 – And you, who once were alienated and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds
- Psalm 58:3 – The wicked are estranged from the womb;
- Ephesians 2:12-13 – remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
- Ephesians 2:3 – among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.
- Proverbs 15:9 – The way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord
- Proverbs 15:8 – The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord (c.f. Proverbs 21:27)
- Proverbs 28:9 – If one turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination.
- Isaiah 64:6 – We have all become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous deeds are like a polluted garment.
- Hebrews 11:6 – And without faith it is impossible to please [God]
- Romans 8:7-8 – Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
- Psalm 10:4 – In the pride of his face the wicked does not seek him; all his thoughts are, "There is no God."
- John 3:20 – "For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed."
- Isaiah 65:1 – "I was ready to be sought by those who did not ask for me; I was ready to be found by those who did not seek me.
- Isaiah 64:7 – There is no one who calls upon your name, who rouses himself to take hold of you; for you have hidden your face from us, and have made us melt in the hand of our iniquities.
- Romans 3:10-12 – "no one seeks for God."
So, if we are born in sin, slaves to sin and hostile to God, unable to do good works… is the heart a good place to be looking?
Yes, for those in Christ, He has changed their heart of stone into a heart of flesh. But.. where does that come from? IN or OUT?
Our righteousness? OUT! It is an external (or what some call "alien") righteousness. Our only hope in life and death is the external/OUT righteousness of Christ!
"The first is alien righteousness, that is the righteousness of another, instilled from without. This is the righteousness of Christ by which he justifies though faith, as it is written in I Cor. 1:30: "whom God made our wisdom, our righteousness and sanctification and redemption." In John 11:25-26, Christ himself states: "I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in me…..shall never die." Later he adds in John 14:6, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life." This righteousness, then, is given to men in baptism and whenever they are truly repentant. Therefore a man can with confidence boast in Christ and say: "Mine are Christ's living, doing, and speaking, his suffering and dying, mine as much as if I had lived, done, spoken, suffered, and died as he did." Just as a bridegroom possesses all that is his bride's and she all that is his—for the two have all things in common because they are one flesh[Gen. 2:24]—so Christ and the church are one spirit [Eph. 5:29-32]. Thus the blessed God and Father of mercies has, according to Peter, granted to us very great and precious gifts in Christ [II Pet. 1:4]. Paul writes in II Cor. 1:3; "Blessed be the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places."
– Martin Luther
So, do you see the completely backward message of Joel Osteen? Not only is it not biblical (Did you hear a single mention of Jesus, or a single passage of scripture in his dicussion?) it's the polar OPPOSITE of biblical Christianity. And he's telling unregenerate sinners (who the bible says are slaves to sin and UNABLE to please God) that they are blessed and victorious? That's not just incorrect, it's rank heresy. He's speaking peace and victory to people who in their unregenerate state are destined for hell. Smiley face and sweet voice or not.. that's the cruelest act I can think of a man committing, and to do it while presenting himself as a "Pastor"? God have mercy!
False teacher much?
So, the takeaway here is this: Get the In-N-Out right, your only hope is OUT, through the external/alien righteousness of Jesus Christ through faith in Him for the forgiveness of sins.

Federal Employment Agency
Federal Employment Agency, Germany
The Federal Employment Agency performs comprehensive service tasks for the employment and vocational training market in Germany. All over the country, there is an extensive net of employment agencies and committee's offices. It is the biggest authority in Germany and one of the biggest employers of the Federal State.
At the Federal Employment Agency in Nuremberg / Germany one of the conference rooms was equipped with the beyerdynamic MCS-Digital conference system.
They chose the new MCS-D 3041 microphone unit with a practical foldaway gooseneck microphone. The H version is fitted with a cable connector at the bottom of the housing allowing a discreet installation without visible cable. The existing system was replaced, leaving holes in the tables, plates with the same Nextel® coating as the housing of the microphone units were used to cover the holes.
The main PA system consists of 6 loudspeakers from Fohhn. In order to avoid feedback, the microphone units were divided into four groups and the appropriate audio signals of the groups were separately routed from the audio interface into an audio DSP.
Inside the audio DSP the sound system was adjusted in a way that the microphone units have a lower level in their own zone than the other three groups. This decreased the tendency to feedback considerably and the volume of the conference system could be essentially increased.
Due to the very long cable routes between the control unit and the conference room the voltage supply of the supply units was routed via usual power lines to the bottom inserts and from there applied to the system again. A ring cabling from both sides, powers the microphone units. This allows a high operating reliability of the MCS-Digital system, as the system continues to operate even when a microphone unit is removed. A microphone unit can be replaced or connected additionally during operation and receives all settings automatically.
For international meetings the conference system includes three MCS-D 202 interpretation consoles with DT 394 headsets. With the language selector of the MCS-D 3041 microphone units, the participants of the conference can select the required language and listen via headphone.
A technician's microphone unit can be used for internal communication between interpreter and chairman microphone unit. Some functions of the control unit are controlled via a Crestron media control system.
Installation: July 2010
- 1 MCS-D 200 control unit
- 2 CA 4146 power supply units

Watching a space shuttle launch from your TV or computer is an experience itself. So how about watching all 135 simultaneously?
Artist McLean Fahnestock decided to compile all of NASA's launches into a nearly four-minute video, syncing the launches with each other. From seconds before the liftoff as the main engines begin firing to after the launch, this is truly a remarkable compilation.
It even highlights the Challenger disaster by fading out the square, only featuring the audio from the 1986 disaster.
Fahnestock's "Grand Finale" is a finalist for the best remix at the Vimeo Festival Awards. Chances are that you haven't seen (or even heard about) this masterpiece but this is worthwhile.

First of all, I want to say Happy Birthday to Shri Shani Dev Maharaj as today is "Shani Dev Jayanti." This is about Shri Shani Dev with a request to Shri Shani Devi that He may bless me at every moment of my life.
Astronomical facts
Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and is also the second largest planet, with a radius of 37,366 miles. It is said to have a small core of rock and iron, then a layer of ice and lastly topped by a deep layer of liquid hydrogen.
Saturn is different from other known planets for the rings it has. No planet in this solar system has rings like Saturn does. The rings consist of small pieces of ice and rock, are 62,000 kilometers wide but just 100 meters thick. The rings are actually made of thousands of closely spaced ringlets, looking like a gramophone record disk.
Saturn has 22 known natural satellites, more than any other planet does.
Vedic Astrological view
From the Vedic point of view, the physical Saturn is only a representation of Shani Dev / Shanaischaram (Saturn God). By the movement of the physical Saturn, we understand the intention of Saturn God (Shani) about us. Saturn God is the natural ruler of karma, and to understand our karma, we must first understand Shani.
Shani is one of the three children of Sun and Chaya Devi. From the Vedic texts, we can learn a lot about Shani. Many times the power of his gaze have been mentioned in the classics. We learn that right after Shani was born, his gaze caused Sun's charioteer to fall down and break his thigh; Sun's horses to get blind; and Sun himself caught vitiligo for Shani's powerful gaze on him. They were healed only when Shani moved his gaze away and looked at somewhere else.
This clarifies the power which Shani has in his gaze.
In Jyotish, Shani is considered a very malefic planet. The nine planets are the incarnation of Lord to bestow us the result of our karma - which are the lessons we need to learn. And most of the times, the toughest lessons are taught by Shani. In our school, we always have different teachers for different subjects like Math, Physics, Language etc. Just like that, different planets teach us different kind of lessons, and most of the times the teacher Shani teaches us very painful lessons. This is not something to doubt when we learn from the BPHS that Shani is the natural giver of grief.
In general, Shani is considered the most malefic planet, and the most problematic, painful yogas involve Shani most of the times. When Shani maleficly affect something, he slows the matter down, and causes obstructions and delays in it's fruitfulness. Shani also rules separation, he hurts us by taking things away from us. When we face a painful separation from our parents, spouse, friends or anyone we care for, Shani is always a possibility for that. Ketu also causes separation as he rules non-attachment, but separations and delays are among the main significations of Shani. He's association with Venus / 7th lord causes separation from spouse most of the times. Though the final comment should be made seeing Shani's strength, placement and lordship, as for Taurus and Libra natives Shani is a functional benefic being a Yoga karaka. But even then Shani will not forget to remind his nature sometimes. That is my personal view on this.
Shani is a planet of Tamasic quality. He is a planet of extreme nature. When he favours someone, he gives very favourable effects. Oppositely, when anyone receives his curse, indescribable pain and miseries he or she faces in life. Shani purifies a person by giving immense sorrow and pain, as fire purifies the gold.
Favourable effects of Shani on one's nature include in-depth knowledge, sensibility, wisdom, justice, broadness of mind, honesty, patience, ability to work hard etc. In life, he may give wealth, fortune, long life etc. when auspicious and well placed.
On the other hand, when badly afflicting a person's nature, Shani can make one sadistic, greedy, lazy, dishonest, fearful, irresponsible and even addicted to drugs. Shani causes obstruction, delay, grief, poverty, short life etc. He makes a person totally lonely, helpless and can make one suffer from enmity, theft, lawsuits etc. Shani can also give imprisonment since he rules obstruction, loneliness and grief.
When causing diseases, Shani generally gives chronic diseases as the person suffers for a long time - by this he again shows his nature of slowness and delays.
When badly effecting one's profession, Shani makes one work very hard but does not give the proper reward he deserves. That is why social servants and people who earn their living by physical labour are ruled by Shani. For the same reason Shani rules the Sudras (4th caste) and abodes in filthy places.
For the power of his gaze, Shani has a tremendous afflicting ability by his mere aspects, which he casts on 3rd, 7th and 10th houses from his own position.
Among other planets used in Vedic Astrology, Saturn is the last one counted from Sun's position. That is why Shani Dev rules 'The last' or 'The end' of anything. He is the 'Last Answer' in anything. In our material world, death is the end of everything, and that is why, Shani rules death and longevity issues. He is the natural significator of 8th house in astrology. We know that 8th house deals with sorrows, shock, pains, depressions and also - occult. That is why Shani also deals with Magic, Tantra, Jyotish etc.
Shani was lamed by another son of the Sun, named Yama (God of death) when he hit Shani in his leg. So Shani is always very slow in his movement. One name of Shani, as I already mentioned, is 'Shanaischaram' which means the slow mover. He takes around 2.5 years to pass through a sign, thus he takes around 30 years to complete the travel over the whole zodiac. So he rules slowness and delays; And he teaches us how to tolerate slowness and delays, by patience. He is generally pleased with people having patience.
The great phase (Maha Dasha) of Shani lasts for 19 years. Even than the Maha Dasha, Shani gets the strong hold of a person by his transit over the 12th, 1st and 2nd signs from his or her natal Moon. This is called 'Sade Sati' since it lasts for about 7.5 years.

Listen we all want width in the side mate but
I don't think this is a game for Kenny. Palace will get the ball out wide to Zaha get him one on one with him. For this reason, we need to play it very tight in the game, otherwise we will lose,which is why i think Holgate has a better chance. With Palace, if you stop the wingers, you stop the goals, as they won't score from any other way. From what i have seen of Vlasic, he just isn't great at tracking back and doing his defensive work, which won't do in this game.I would go with this: PickfordHolgate Keane Jags Baines Gana Bani DaviesLennon Sigurdsson DCLA workaholic team with bags of energy to scrap a win.
Need to build on last week here, draw would be decent. Worried about set pieces against us though, we're shit in the air at the moment.
Kenny had the best defensive stats in the league last weekend.
Genuinely interested - by what measures?

Divine Eating at the Vine Eatery
Date Night Dining on Taupo's Tuwharetoa Street!
Before we begin, I'm just going to issue a teeny weeny Health Warning. You might want to cover your ears for a second or two Lovely Blog Reader in preparation for some serious Taupo trumpet blowing!
Do you know something? Here in The Events Capital of New Zealand we are fortunate enough to have such a plethora of high quality and deliciously diverse dining options to choose from, quite frankly it's a wonder that anyone here in Taupo actually does any cooking or dining in their own home at all (although of course, they absolutely do and a sneaky little read of my previous blogpost Come Dine (In) With Us, will offer you a few tasty morsels of insider knowledge as to where the town's Culinary Cool Cats go to purchase the freshest fare when entertaining or just hanging out at Family HQ)
We believe passionately in 'Our Place', we love entertaining and are most definitely the hosts with the most, so I guess in a way, when you're dining out, it feels a bit like you're amongst friends. That'll be the intimate, small town vibe we've got going on. You'll find something to please all tastes and budgets allowing tourists and locals alike to either seek out hidden gems dotted here there and everywhere, or head straight to the main hive of activity (especially on the weekend) our very own, beloved Tuwharetoa Street.
One of the Newest Kids on This Block is the fresh and inviting Vine Eatery the shiny partner to the iconic wine merchant Scenic Cellars. The Hubster and I had heard various excited whispers about it, so when the aforementioned 'Partner in Marital Mayhem' presented me with two tickets to what turned out to be a completely megarific show at the Great Lake Centre then it was a case of Bingy Bong! I feel a Date Night beckoning......more on the show later...
We decide to go for the Friday night Peroni and Paella experience which appeals and intrigues in equal measure. The Vine promotes a laid back serving style which incorporates a tapas inspired twist on the conventional dining experience. Food is served as and when it is ready, resulting in a steady stream of surprises, not too big and not too small. The result is a breath of fresh air from the generic starter-main course-dessert dining scenario and we both comment on how informal and unpretentious it feels.
Much thought has gone into making this the place to see and be seen in and visually, it is a feast in itself. Huge self opening glass doors lead you into the central hub of things and the gargantuan sparkly, twinkly chandeliers are the perfect draw for a self-confessed magpie with a love of all things shiny. Huge windows facing onto the street are perfect for watching the world go by and provide the essential indoor-outdoor flow to connect those dining inside with those patrons partaking in early evening drinks on balmy summer evenings.
As the Front of House staff played out the 'service dance' between tables in an effortlessly relaxed yet professional manner our conversation turned to reminiscing about the time we first met....he was the chef, I was the waitress, we owned the Sunday night graveyard shift in a quirky Italian Ristorante.....cue soft focus.......tinkly music.....sigh.....Ahem....
The rest is history, and certainly not for this blogpost, but I think it is safe to say that there is something pretty exciting and innovative about The Vine Eatery. I like their concept and they execute it well. The meal was thoroughly enjoyed by both of us and our experience was intimate yet the place was bouncing.
Then onto the Great Lake Centre for a stunning show by the 'Beatles On Tour'. The Great Lake Centre may not be the biggest venue I've ever been to but it's perfectly formed for shows such as these where several hundred locals are stood on their feet singing and dancing to the music
So just what other treats does Tuwharetoa Street have to offer? Stick around and I'll let you know!

Big-eyed fawn like Bambi. 10 centimeter tall.
ラベル: Felt, Stuffed toy
Feb 11, 2012
I know a few people are anxious or angry about my overlong hibernation.
It seems that I quit pleasing you. But it is not that I am dead.
Now I'm making stuffed fawn.
When it is done well, I'll upload its process and pattern.
I post this announcement to expedite myself.
Don't pressure me please.
Also, I tried making stuffed Pomeranian.
I didn't satisfy. It has been suspended.
ラベル: Stuffed toy
