The strange world of quantum mechanics just got a little stranger with the discovery that a magnetic field can control the flow of heat from one body to another. First predicted nearly 50 years ago, the effect might some day form the basis of a new generation of electronic devices that use heat rather than charge as the information carrier.
The research stems from the work of physicist Brian Josephson, who in 1962 predicted that electrons could 'tunnel' between two superconductors separated by a thin layer of insulator — a process forbidden in classical physics. The Josephson junction was subsequently built and used to make superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs), which are now sold commercially as ultra-sensitive magnetometers.
In the latest work, Francesco Giazotto and María José Martínez-Pérez at the NEST nanoscience institute in Pisa, Italy, measured the devices' thermal behavior — that is, how the electrons inside them transfer heat. The duo heated one end of a SQUID several micrometers long and monitored the temperature of an electrode connected to it. A SQUID consists of two y-shaped pieces of superconductor joined together to form a loop, but with two thin pieces of insulating material sandwiched in between (see figure); as the researchers varied the magnetic field passing through the loop, the amount of heat flowing through the device also changed. The effect was in line with a theory put forward by Kazumi Maki and Allan Griffin in 1965.
The device worked by partly reversing the heat transfer, so that some would flow from the colder body to the warmer one. "This is completely unintuitive," says Giazotto. "People are used to thinking of heat as disorder, so how can you impose quantum order on it? Amazingly, a device with Josephson junctions can do that."
Legal violation
This apparent violation of the second law of thermodynamics — which states that heat will always flow from a hotter to a colder body — is, in fact, perfectly legal, says Giazotto, because only part of the total heat flow is subject to the phase variation. When you also take into account the heat transferred by single electrons, as occurs inside normal metals, the net flow is still from the hot to the cold end.
Like its electrical counterpart, this variation in the heat flow can be explained in terms of the superconductors' 'phase' — the position of the peaks and troughs of the wavefunction that describes the superconducting electron pairs in the SQUID's loop. The greatest heat flow occurs when the peaks inside one half of the loop line up with peaks in the other half, whereas the flow is at a minimum when peaks meet troughs. The magnetic field shifts those phases relative to each other, thus modifying the heat flow.
Teun Klapwijk of the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands describes Giazotto and Martínez-Pérez's research as "cute" but "not very surprising". He also doubts that it will have significant practical applications. "The only possible area would be solid-state refrigeration, which would replace cryogenic liquids," he says.
But Giazotto argues that the research could help to realize tiny but highly efficient heat engines. He also hopes it might form the basis of "coherent caloritronics", in which information is carried by heat exchanges instead of electrical ones. In ordinary transistors, a voltage toggles an electric switch on and off, and the devices can be combined to form logic gates, the building blocks of computer chips; caloritronics would instead use 'thermal transistors' to switch on and off the transfer of heat. Previously, Giazotto and others have built devices that control heat exchanges using an electric rather than magnetic field.

The American Motorcyclist Association expressed concern to a U.S. House subcommittee about possible damage to motorcycle and all-terrain vehicle engines caused by the inadvertent use of E15 when the new fuel becomes widely available.
In testimony to the House Subcommittee on the Environment during a hearing on "Mid-Level Ethanol Blends: Consumer and Technical Research Needs" on Feb. 26, Wayne Allard, AMA vice president for government relations, said that motorcycles and ATVs should be part of any scientific study into the effects of E15 on engines to ensure that the new fuel blend won't damage those engines.
He also cautioned that E15 could lower fuel efficiency and possibly cause premature engine failure for motorcycles and ATVs.
E15 is a new fuel blend of 15 percent ethanol and 85 percent gasoline that the EPA has approved for use in 2001-and-newer passenger vehicles. The blend isn't approved for use in motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles, boats, lawn mowers and other engines, and may even damage them and void warranties.
E10, which is commonly found at gas stations, contains 10 percent ethanol. E0 fuel has no ethanol. Ethanol is grain alcohol produced from crops such as corn that is mixed with gasoline to produce an ethanol-gasoline blend motor fuel.

Top-Notch Humor, Animation Mark Shrek the Third
- Lisa Rice Contributing Writer
- 2007 18 May
DVD Release Date: November 13, 2007
Theatrical Release Date: May 18, 2007
Rating: PG (for some crude humor, suggestive content and swashbuckling action)
Genre: Animation/Drama
Run Time: 93 min.
Director: Chris Miller and Ramen Hui
Voice Talents of: Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz, Antonio Banderas, Julie Andrews, John Cleese, Rupert Everett, Eric Idle, Justin Timberlake,
What does an ogre do when he really doesn't want to be king? He searches the world for the next logical relative and coerces him to return to the land of Far Far Away and assume his royal position.
It is Shrek's quest for Arthur ("Arty") and the challenges he faces getting him on the throne that make for a fun ride in Shrek the Third. With cleverly-written, well-voiced, all-star humor and impeccable animation, this latest fairy tale movie is marred only by a few typical Hollywood worldview elements and some scatological humor.
The story begins with the frog king (John Cleese) dying, and even his death is hilarious, with him gagging and choking and passing out, only to come back again three times to utter short, meaningful quips to his family. It turns out that he wants Shrek (Mike Myers) to be king but is willing for a distant relative, young Arthur (Justin Timberlake), to take the throne, if necessary. Shrek, who is extremely uncomfortable in the world of royal palaces, tight, kingly outfits, wigs, makeup, and formality, thinks that a replacement is definitely necessary and sets out to find the teenage heir.
He sails off with his donkey friend (Eddie Murphy) and the famous Puss N' Boots cat, (Antonio Banderas), and the last thing he hears his wife (Cameron Diaz) yelling to him is that she's pregnant. Shrek has nightmares about being a father to tons of little ogre babies with their projectile vomiting and breaking valuables habits, and he wakes up in a cold sweat to disembark.
The little team does find Arty, who happens to be an unpopular, oft-bullied teen at a hilarious medieval high school. Shrek convinces him that the frog king specifically asked for Arthur to take over the Kingdom of Far Far Away, so the young lad finally complies, and the motley group sets out for home.
To complicate matters, however, not everyone is happy that Arty is coming to take the throne—especially Prince Charming (Rupert Everett). Remember him? He's the guy who got ousted in Shrek II, and now he's got a plan for revenge and overthrow. He rallies all the disgruntled, "loser" fairy-tale characters (like Snow White's wicked stepmother, Rumpelstiltskin, Captain Hook, etc.), and he convinces them to take back the wins they've been robbed of by performing in an evil palace play that is slated to end with the death of Shrek.
It will take some honest communication and teamwork, the quick growing up of a kid, and the clever work of some princesses who haven't had to fight before—in order for Shrek and his team to spoil Charming's plans and get the right man, or kid, on the throne.
This third time around, Shrek is very funny, grand in animation and casting and generally well written. There are many good "laugh out loud" moments in the film, especially at the medieval high school, whose kids sound an awful lot like America's teens ("Just say nay" to drugs). Many extra touches were added to each scene to give them that extra boost of humor and entertainment.
Regrettably, sometimes Hollywood pushes that envelope a bit too far, though they're subtle about it. For instance, one of the "princesses" is a big, ugly "girl" with a deep, man-sounding voice, who says, "That (Prince) Charming makes me hotter than July." And there are guys who are effeminate as well. There are also plenty of depictions of vomiting, burping, passing gas, scratching rears, etc. And there's a needless portrayal of alcohol. Prince Charming goes to a bar to recruit his bad guys and orders a round of fuzzy navels for all (an alcoholic drink made with Peach Schnapps).
As usual, there's plenty of magic and New Age verbiage, and this time it's supplied by Merlin (Eric Idle), an aging wizard with dementia, who calls out things like, "Cosmic children of the universe!" and has people look into the smoke to see pictures that will give them clues about their souls.
The movie does address the common problem of children and the "father issues" they have when they're abandoned or overlooked. Many movies are addressing this issue now, even recent animations like Curious George and Chicken Little. It's just that Hollywood usually gives incomplete answers for such dilemmas. In this case, the theme is "The thing that matters most is what you think of yourself." Well yes, but it takes some dealing and healing with God to get there.
Overall, this skillfully made, high budget animation will very likely clean up at the box office as it entertains the masses this summer. Enjoy the laughs, but always, always talk to your kids about the worldview elements and how they stack up to Scripture.
- Drugs/Alcohol: Fuzzy Navels distributed in bar.
- Language: Mild issues of off-color, or scatological verbiage, with a few innuendos going over kids' heads.
- Sex: None.
- Violence: Mild, cartoonish, slapstick violence.

This paper extends the literature on bank capital structure by modeling capital structure as a function of important public policy and bank regulatory characteristics of the home country, as well as of bank-specific variables, country-level macroeconomic conditions, and country-level financial characteristics. The model is estimated with annual data from 1992 to 2005 for an unbalanced panel of the seventy-eight largest private banks in the world headquartered in twelve industrial countries. The results indicate that bank capital ratios are significantly affected in the hypothesized directions by most of the bank-specific variables. Several of the country characteristic and policy variables are also significant with the predicted sign: Banks maintain higher capital ratios in home countries in which the bank sector is relatively smaller and in countries that practice prompt corrective actions more actively, have more stringent capital requirements, and have more effective corporate governance structures.
JEL classification: G21, G29
Key words: capital requirements, country public and regulatory policies, large banks

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Jan. 21, 2005) - The first day of competition for the third annual Niswonger Track and Field Invitational wrapped up on Friday evening in the Memorial Center at East Tennessee State University. Over 80 teams are scheduled to compete during the two-day event. Friday's competition saw meet records being broken in the women's weight throw and the men's triple jump.
Amber Campbell of the Mjolnir throws Club threw 22.52m in the women's weight throw setting new Niswonger Invitational and Memorial Center records. Campbell broke the previous record of 20.83m, which was set by Dawn Ellerbe of South Carolina on Jan. 24, 1997.
In the men's triple jump, Brandon Via of North Carolina A& T set a new Niswonger Invitational record with a mark of 15.95m. The previous record was 15.35m set in last year's meet by Ukiwe Maduekwe of Florida A&M.
East Tennessee State University also set new standards for the Niswonger Meet as senior Chantelle Vernon (Markham, Ontario) set a new Niswonger Invitational record for ETSU women student-athletes in the 200-meter dash with a time of 22.53 in the preliminaries breaking her own record of 25.61 set at last year's meet.
"Chantelle is capable of running better in the 200, but she didn't see a lot of competition in her heat today and that made it a difficult race to run," said ETSU assistant coach Michelle Byrne.
Vernon also saw success in the 60-meter dash earlier on Friday and has qualified for Saturday's finals. Her time of 7.54, which placed her sixth overall in today's competition ties the ETSU school indoor record in the event.
"She had difficulty at the start of the 60, but made the adjustments to make a solid finish," commented Byrne. "I look forward to seeing an even better performance from her in tomorrow's race."
On the men's side, sophomore Joshua Hicks (Riceville, Tenn.) represented the Buccaneers in the men's 800-meter run finishing with a time of 1:57.86.
"Joshua is putting the 800 meters together. It's a race where you can get pushed around," said Byrne. "He has put together two back-to-back 1:57 races now, and we believe he is capable of achieving 1:55."
The Niswonger Track and Field Invitational action continues tomorrow with the unseeded distance races at 8:00 a.m. The afternoon session, which features six elite invitational events, is scheduled to start at 3:30 p.m. and run until 6:30 p.m.
Some of the world-class athletes participating in this year's meet include ETSU alumni Catherine Berry, a native of Surrey, England. Last year Berry competed at the IAAF Grand Prix II meet in Heusden, Belgium and reached the Olympic �B' Standard (15:20.45) in the 5000 meters with a time of 15:19.72 a new personal best. During her career at ETSU from 1997-2000, Berry earned All-American honors in the 5000 meters and made six trips to NCAA meets, three for cross country and three for track and field. Berry holds the Buccaneer record in the outdoor 3000 meters with a time of 9:29.91 set in 1999. Berry will compete in the 3000 meter invitational.
USA Track and Field's Miguel Pate, sponsored by Nike, will compete in the long jump. Pate was the 2002 and 2003 USA Indoor champion and placed third at the 2003 World Indoor Championships. In 2002 Pate claimed the NCAA Indoor Championship and in 2001, he was the World University Games champion and placed fourth at the World Outdoor Championships. He holds personal bests of 8.59m in the long jump and 16.62m in the triple jump.
Ladji Doucour�, who recently finished eighth in the 110-meter hurdles at the Olympics in Athens, Greece for the French National team, will compete in the 60-meter hurdle finals tomorrow. He finished today's preliminaries with a time of 7.54 to advance.
Tickets are available for purchase at the door. The cost is $10 for adults and $4 for students and youth. Each adult ticket purchased enters the individual in a drawing to win a framed autographed picture of NASCAR legend Dale Eanrhardt and his son Dale Earnhardt Jr. The drawing will be held on Saturday and individuals must be present to win.

During the frenzied response to the devastating Newtown, Conn., school shooting last week, a policeman picked up one of the first-graders who had been shot. She was still alive, but not for long. The six-year-old lived long enough for the officer to say to her, "I love you." And then the life slipped from her small body.
Deacon Don Naiman elicited gasps and cries from mourners as he related that story during the funeral Dec. 21 of Olivia Rose Engel.
"That officer was the voice of Jesus Christ" to the girl, Deacon Naiman said during his homily at St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church in Newtown. "And I am convinced that he gently passed Olivia to the hands of the Blessed Mother."
He urged members of a large congregation that filled the church to likewise "be the hand of Christ…to these beautiful parents" and to others in the world.
It's been an emotion-filled week in this bucolic New England town, and Olivia's funeral was one of eight at the church — all for children who had not even made their first Communion. The final one was to take place Saturday, just days before Christmas.
Earlier in the day, at 9:30, Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy presided over a moment of silence at town hall to mark one week since 20-year-old Adam Lanza allegedly shot and killed 20 first-graders and six educators at nearby Sandy Hook Elementary School. The bell at an Episcopal church slowly tolled 26 times as heavy rain and strong winds ushered in the first day of winter.
An hour later, hundreds of mourners filled St. Rose's to reflect on the life of 6-year-old Grace Audrey McDonnell and to hear the pastor call for change.
"We have become a culture of death, where there is less and less respect for life and the dignity that every human person enjoys [because he is] created by God," said Msgr. Robert Weiss. He acknowledged that people have proposed many ideas to "change things" in response to the tragedy, including gun control and banning violent video games. But he said that is not enough.
"Change happens within each one of us," Msgr. Weiss told the congregation. "We need to change this attitude that is driving us away from everything that is right and good, everything God intended us to be in this world."
He said that as a society, "We've become too busy for family, too busy for friends, even too busy for God." He expressed hope that the tragedy would remind everyone about "what's really important in life."
As if recalling Gaudete Sunday from the week before, Msgr. Weiss was vested in a rose chasuble, while other priests concelebrating Mass wore the purple vestments of Advent. Twenty-six votive candles were lined up along the front edge of the altar, each with the name of a different child who perished in the killing spree. An urn containing the cremains of little Grace sat on a pedestal in front of the altar.
Introducing the Lord's Prayer right before Communion, the pastor told Mass-goers that he liked to believe that it was a prayer that was going through the minds of some of the children in Sandy Hook School as the tragic incident was unfolding, "asking the Lord to protect them."
The funeral for Olivia Engel followed in the early afternoon. Deacon Naiman preached as a small white coffin sat in the middle aisle. In the front row sat Olivia's mother, Shannon, and father, Brian, holding a sleepy 3-year-old named Brayden.
"Our sacred duty is to bring Christ to the grieving family," said Deacon Naiman, "to be Christ to this couple, to lift them up and take the burden from their shoulders."
Olivia's last name is the German word for angel, a term that has been used throughout the week to describe the 20 boys and girls who lost their lives. In fact, Olivia had been scheduled to play the part of an angel in the parish's Christmas pageant on Christmas Eve, a show that Msgr. Weiss promised would go on, in honor of the children who perished.
At both Masses, Msgr. Weiss recalled being at a local firehouse the day of the tragedy, where parents were gathered, waiting for news of their children. Speaking directly to both sets of parents, he said he recalled watching them as the names of other parents were called, alerting them that their children were safe, but then seeing their reaction when some, including the McDonnells and the Engels, were asked to go to a separate room to receive what would turn out to be devastating news.
"And I saw you going outside, hardly able to stand up, wondering what you were going to do from that day onward," the pastor said.
Conducting eight funerals in six days and attending all the wakes and counseling family members has been an extraordinary burden to the priests of the parish, and scores, if not hundreds, of parishioners stepped forward to offer help, material assistance and prayerful support. The parish's Knights of Columbus council, which dedicated its own hall on the parish grounds in September, solicited volunteer help from other Knights councils in the area, and many Knights responded, taking up posts as ushers and doormen in the church, escorting guests from their cars and cleaning the church after each Mass. Timothy Haas, grand knight of Council 185 at St. Rose, said it's been difficult to make sense of the tragedy but that parishioners were feeling "the support of the world."
"When they're able to focus on their faith and the redeeming power and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that helps them get through it," Haas said. "Faced with eight funerals, the resilience has to come from somewhere. It comes from the grace of God."
After all the funerals are over, the 260-member Knights council plans to discuss ways to provide ongoing support for the parish and grieving families who seek their help. "We're trying to get our arms around it," Haas said. He said he'd like to see the Knights involved in a renewed effort to support "the culture of life, in its broadest sense." That would include, not only the issue of abortion but also "mental health, respect and love for each other, becoming a little more in a relationship with each other, as opposed to focused only on electronic communication and internet, but to really establish relationships, and relationships in faith."
He expressed hope that the Knights at St. Rose will in the long term "keep up the energy that's going to come out of this tragedy, which has caused people to come back to church, particularly in our parish."

25 To Life
Too late for the other side
Caught in a chase
25 to life
Too late for the other side
Caught in a chase
25 to life
Too late
I can't keep chasing em
I'm taking my life back
Caught in a chase
25 to life
[Verse 1]
I don't think she understands the sacrifices that I made
Maybe if this bitch had acted right I would've stayed
But I've already wasted over half of my life I would've laid
Down and died for you I no longer cry for you
No more pain bitch you
Took me for granted took my heart and ran it straight into the planet
Into the dirt I can no longer stand it
Now my respect I demand it
Imma take control of this relationship
Command it, and imma be the boss of you now goddamnit
And what I mean is that I will no longer let you control me
So you better hear me out this much you owe me
I gave up my life for you, totally devoted to you while I've stayed
Faithful all the way this is how I fucking get repaid
Look at how I dress fucking baggy sweats, go to work a mess
Always in a rush to get back to you I ain't heard you yet
Not even once say you appreciate me I deserve respect
Ive done my best to give you nothing less than perfectness
And I know that if I end this I'll no longer have nothing left
But you keep treating me like a staircase it's time to fucking step
And I wont be coming back so don't hold your fucking breath
You know what you've done no need to go in depth
I told you, you'd be sorry if I fucking left
Id laugh while you wept
Hows it feel now, yeah, funny ain't it, you neglected me
Did me a favor although my spirit free you've set
But a special place for you in my heart I have kept
It's unfortunate but it's,
Too late for the other side
Caught in a chase
25 to life
Too late for the other side
Caught in a chase
25 to life
[Verse 2]
I feel like when I bend over backwards for you all you do is laugh
Cause that ain't good enough you expect me to fold myself in half
Til I snap
Don't think I'm loyal
All I do is rap
How can I moonlight on the side
I have no life outside of that
Don't I give you enough of my time
You don't think so do you
Jealous when I spend time with the girls
Why I'm married to you still man I don't know
But tonight I'm serving you with papers
I'm divorcing you
Go marry someone else and make em famous
And take away their freedom like you did to me
Treat em like you don't need them and they ain't worthy of you
Feed em the same shit you made me eat
I'm moving on forget you oh,
Now I'm special? Oh, I didn't feel special when i was with you
All I ever felt was this
Imprisoned by a selfish bitch
Chew me up and spit me out
I fell for this so many times
It's ridiculous
And still I stick with this
I'm sick of this but in my sickness and addiction
You're as addictive as they get
Evil as they come vindictive as they make em
My friends keep asking why I can't just walk away from
I'm addicted
To the pain, the stress, the drama
I'm drown in so I guess imma mess
Cursed and blessed
But this time imma
Ain't changing my mind
I'm climbing out this abyss
You screaming as I walk out that I'll be missed
But when you spoke to people who meant the most to you
You left me off your list
Fuck you hip-hop
I'm leaving you, my life sentence is served bitch
And it's just
Too late for the other side
Caught in a chase
25 to life
Too late for the other side
Caught in a chase
25 to life
Too late
Caught in a chase
25 to life

Presidential Candidate Brock Pierce Served With Lawsuit for Alleged ICO Fraud
Former Disney child actor and U.S. Presidential candidate, Brock Pierce, was served with a lawsuit during a political campaign event held on Monday. The class-action lawsuit was filed in May and it claims the defendants, including Pierce, sold unregistered securities during the EOS initial coin offering (ICO).
Last May, a class-action lawsuit on behalf of any person who purchased or received EOS tokens during the June 2017 ICO was filed against a number of firms and company executives behind the EOS project.
The lawsuit named Brock Pierce, but also Block.one cofounders Daniel Larimer and Brendan Blumer are named as defendants too in the matter. The complaint says that Pierce alongside other Block.one leadership is "accountable for duping global investors in what may be the biggest of all crypto frauds."
Moreover, the court filing details that Block.one operated in Hong Kong and the state of Virginia, but it is registered in the Cayman Islands. Even though the startup did not register with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) or seek exemption from registration, it still sold 900 million EOS tokens.
The class action accuses the company and executives of "aggressively marketing to investors in the United States and other countries." Ultimately the plaintiffs believe EOS "left investors with an unregulated asset that became virtually worthless."
Meanwhile, on Monday the former child actor and now crypto billionaire, Brock Pierce, held a campaign rally in New York City. Later in the day, a video of the rally surfaced from the CEO of Typhon Capital Management, James Koutoulas, who is a member of the plaintiff's counsel in the EOS class-action lawsuit.
In the video, Pierce is served with the court subpoena while he is greeting a number of political supporters in New York. Koutoulas tweeted about the entrepreneur being served during his rally.
"Our team served Brock Pierce for securities fraud at his rally in NYC," Koutoulas said. "Pro tip- when you're trying to avoid getting served for a multi B fraud case, maybe lay off outlandish presidential campaigns."
Koutoulas further added:
As we progress in holding this conman accountable, feel free to reach out if you lost money after buying eos in the ICO or on exchange.
Pierce's official Twitter account and campaign did not release a statement in response to the securities fraud allegations. Instead, Pierce thanked everyone for coming out to the campaign event in NYC later in the day. He also said he was "glad to see that [his] candidacy is being taken so seriously," when his campaign story was featured on the front page of the New York Post.
Brock Pierce is also well known in the cryptocurrency space and his campaign website also details how he has raised billions of dollars during the crypto ecosystem's early days. Pierce is also running against the hip hop star, Kanye West, who is campaigning for POTUS against the Republican incumbent Donald Trump and Democrat challenger Joe Biden as well.
Block.one was already in trouble with the SEC last year and the organization settled with the U.S. regulator for $24 million or 0.6% of the $4 billion ICO funds. "Institutional funds that were lied to by Block.one have a duty to all their investors – large and small – to take action against fraudsters and con artists," said Koutoulas.
What do you think about Brock Pierce being served with a lawsuit against the EOS initial coin offering (ICO)? Let us know what you think about this subject in the comments section below.

Day 13 of 30 Days to a Food Revolution. Today's guest blogger is Melissa from Gluten Free For Good. Holistic nutritionist and fresh food advocate, Melissa McLean Jory, was diagnosed with celiac disease several years ago. She specializes in nutrition therapy and exercise science in her private practice, blah-blah-blogs about it regularly at Gluten Free For Good and believes true health and healing takes a mind-body approach. As an avid backcountry enthusiast, she finds no limit to nutritious gluten-free cooking, whether in the comfort of her kitchen or the wonder of the wilderness.
Melissa's Recipe: Leek and Potato (and maybe beet green) Soup
Melissa's Tips: 8 steps to "revolutionary" transformation (and maybe enlightenment)
"Be at least as interested in what goes on inside you as what happens outside. If you get the inside right, the outside will fall into place." Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment
Eckhart Tolle is a German-born spiritual leader, philosopher, writer and public speaker. Although I doubt he was thinking of bok choy, beet greens or cauliflower when he expressed the above sentiments, I'm taking this literally and applying it to Jamie's Food Revolution. I also doubt Jamie was thinking spiritual transformation and enlightenment when he temporarily banned French fries at Huntington High or took those nasty pseudo-nuggets off the menu at the local elementary school.
But you know what?
I can't separate one from the other and even if Eckhart and Jamie have never even heard of each other, they're both on a revolutionary journey of transformation.
Body, mind and spirit. One infuses, influences and inspires the other. Without a healthy body, without an interest in what goes on inside, the outside won't fall into place.
All together now…
You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world (The Beatles, 1968)
So, let's do it! Can you hear us, Jamie? We're on board and ready to flash dance, sing, cook, twirl, eat fresh food and make a change from the inside out.
Here are my food tips for revolutionary and enlightened transformation.
- Eat whole, fresh food. Preferably organic. Check here for the EWG's shopper's guide to pesticides (the dirty dozen and the clean 15).
- Make whole plant sources, especially vegetables, fruit and legumes your foundation.
- Choose foods (for the most part) that you can hold in your hands and wash. Can you wash a box of Kraft mac and cheese or a package of Twinkies? You can wash tomatoes, cabbage and leeks and you can rinse brown rice. See how easy that is?
- Don't eat food that never spoils. If it doesn't rot, it's not real food.
- If animals, insects and bacteria won't eat it, maybe we shouldn't either. Food that has been sprayed with chemicals to repel critters is not a good choice for people. Here we are at the top of the food chain and the lowly creepy-crawly things are more aware of what they eat than we are.
- Make it yourself. Learn from your grandmother. Be creative, experiment and have fun in the kitchen. Enjoy and benefit by the wisdom of real food.
- Eat less, eat slower, use smaller plates, join a CSA, frequent farmer's markets, choose fresh ingredients, eat more vegetables, choose humanely treated and pastured animal sources and skip the junk food. Nutritious food comes from good ingredients.
- Part of healthy eating is enjoying what you eat, how you prepare it, the cultural variations and sharing it with others. Don't make it complicated. As Alice Waters (hers is a Delicious Revolution) says, "be inspired by recipes, rather than ruled by them." Have fun and remember – wholesome food is a gift to appreciate.
Leek and Potato Soup from Jamie's Food Revolution Cookbook
I was inspired by the recipe, rather than ruled by it, so I added beet greens.
serves 6-8
what you need
2 carrots / 2 celery stalks / 2 small onions / 1 pound leeks / 2 cloves garlic / 1¾ quarts chicken or vegetable broth, preferably organic / 1 pound potatoes / olive oil / sea salt and freshly ground pepper / maybe some greens (my addition)
what you do
Peel and roughly chop the carrots. Slice the celery. Peel anc roughly chop the onions. Cut the ends off the leeks, quarter them lengthways, wash them under running water, and cut them into ¼ inch slices. Peel and mince garlic. Put the broth in a sauce pan and heat until boiling. Place a large saucepan on medium/high heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add all your chopped and sliced ingredients and mix together with a wooden spoon. Cook for around 10 minutes with the lid askew, until the carrots have softened, but are still holding their shape, and the onion and leeks are lightly golden. Peel the potatoes and cut them into ¼ inch dice. Add the boiling broth to the vegetables. Add your potatoes. Give the soup a good stir and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer with the lid.
to serve your soup
Remove the pan from the heat. Season with salt and pepper. Serve like this or pulse until smooth using an immersion blender. Top with some crumbled cheese or roasted sunflower seeds if you'd like.
* I added washed and chopped beet greens at the end and simmered the soup for another few minutes to cook the greens.

How to Deal with Social Media 'Fatigue'
It's a sad fact that you must join every single social network in existence or risk vanishing from the face of the earth. But this is leading to "digital fatigue" among social networkers. How to deal with this? We have the answer.
The Times Style section today highlights the plight of the over-socially networked. The key, it seems, is to have a system. For example, Graham Hill, the 40-year-old founder of TreeHugger is so overwhelmed that he actually schedules Twitter posts weeks in advance, and is considering paying someone to "edit and post content for him so he can spend more time offline."
So, that's one system. Here's my system for what to do if you find yourself consumed with anxiety over maintaining the follower counts on your dozens and dozens of social networking presences—if life begins to seem like an unending stream of status updates and check-ins:
1) Link all your social media accounts—Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Foursquare, Tumblr, Last.fm, etc.—to a single Twitter feed. You can easily do this using services like Ping.fm, OnlyWire or Hellotxt.
2) Write down the password to that Twitter feed on a napkin.
3) Take the napkin to the top of the tallest mountain you can find.
4) Burn the napkin.
5) Eat the ashes.
6) Vanish into the underbrush.
Digital fatigue: solved.

Fiscal Year 2014 Education Appropriation Approved
State Board of Education members in a special meeting on Wednesday approved spending for the more than $2.4 billion education appropriation for fiscal year 2014. The budget includes $74 million more than last year.
The majority of the money, more than $1.8 billion, goes directly to school districts through the state's funding formula to be used at the districts' discretion. Another $540 million dollars is allotted to the state's activities fund, which includes the flexible benefit allowance for school employee health insurance as well programs such as the GED adult education program, National Board Certified teacher bonuses, Ag in the Classroom and other initiatives.
State Superintendent Janet Barresi said this year's activities fund includes earmarked amounts for implementation of state education reforms.
"This includes an increase to Achieving Classroom Excellence (ACE) remediation, funding for reading sufficiency, funding for Teacher and Leader Effectiveness and other supports for our schools," Barresi said.
New to the budget this year is an item for Teach for America, a program that places teachers in high-risk schools to help improve performance among minorities and students in poverty. Also new is a $2.8 million competitive grant program to provide funding to private sector groups that have previously been awarded educational funds and to others that apply.
The State Education Department's Chief of Staff Joel Robison told board members that state legislative leadership and the governor's office approved the amounts specified for each program listed in the budget.
Non-Traditional Special Education Certification Approved
The board voted unanimously to allow for non-traditional routes to obtaining a special education teaching certificate in accordance with recently enacted House Bill 1233.
The board also approved guidance to allow the selection of providers of boot camp programs to offer the certifications. The action addresses a statewide special education teacher shortage
Dr. Rene Axtell, Assistant State Superintendent of Special Education, explained that about 100 special education classrooms statewide have to rely on long-term substitute teachers, many who are not certified, because of the shortage.
Candidates for the boot camp programs will have earned any four-year degree from a higher education institution holding regional accreditation; have a Grade Point Average of 2.75 or higher; have a recommendation from a school district or a higher education institution; pass a national background check; commit to complete a master's degree or certification in special education; and commit to remain with a district for at least three years after earning standard certification. Once accepted to the boot camp, the candidate will complete 150 hours in special education programs.
Special Education Policies Approved
The board also unanimously adopted updates to special education policies. The updates include information related to the federal regulations and the four areas where Oklahoma has chosen to go above and beyond the federal regulations. Those four areas are: 1) the 45 school day timeline for evaluations; 2) secondary transition services to begin at the first Individual Education Plan (IEP) meeting held during the ninth grade year or by age 16, whichever comes first; 3) an IEP for move-in students must be in place within 10 school days; and 4) caseload/class-size requirements.
A procedures handbook detailing the new policies will be available by July 1.

We've been busy during the monsoon shutdown of the APASS system, processing images and preparing for the first formal release of photometry from this AAVSO system.
The AAVSO Photometric All-Sky System (APASS) was commissioned in December, 2009, and has been taking images at Dark Ridge Observatory (Tom Smith, Weed, New Mexico) ever since. New Mexico has experienced a particularly strong el Nino weather pattern, and that combined with the usual startup hardware and software problems, means that we are slightly behind our predicted observing pace. Nonetheless, we have acquired data on over 50 nights, and are preparing a formal Data Release (DR1). This should happen with a week or two, so keep watching the home page!
We're hoping to give you access through both a visual display tool (Seqplot) and a query form for larger requests. Currently, the astrometry for APASS is better than one arcsec, especially in sparse fields, and the photometry is about 0.03-0.05 mag accuracy, depending on the number of nights of observation and their quality. DR1 will include all objects with at least two nights of observation; the final catalog will have a minimum of four photometric observations per object.
The original APASS system will be packed and shipped to CTIO at the end of September, where it will be installed in one of the PROMPT domes (Dan Reichart, UNC, has graciously granted us space there). We will be purchasing a new system to be installed at DRO that will complete the northern sky at the same time as the original system covers the southern sky. The next data release, expected at the end of the year, will therefore have both northern and southern fields represented.
This has been a fun project, impossible to have taken place without the funding from the Robert Martin Ayers Sciences Fund, as well as the volunteer effort from many people. At the same time, it is an extremely important project for the astronomy community as a whole, and we are already getting enthusiastic responses from many researchers. Keep tuned for more!

7D2D: Minibikes, Drawbridges and Greenhouses
While I've mostly been writing about adventures in FFXIV, the Posse has also spent a good deal of time in 7D2D over the past few weeks. We've gotten further than we have in a while — we survived the Night 36 horde last time we played.
Tales of a Greenhouse
Now that we've put this much time into one location, we've been able to experiment with building things we don't normally get to in a shorter game. Much of this is trial and error based on how zombies respond to things that I build.
For example, I noticed that zombies could trash our garden if they got caught on the plants during a horde. So, I started fencing it in. But that hardly did anything to stop them. So I built a wood wall around the garden.
Well, for some reason, that prompted zombies to spawn on top of my garden wall! And because I connected the garden wall to the base wall with a catwalk, they were strolling right on in. Sometimes they fell down inside of the garden instead. Not good.
I decided to put a roof on the garden. But this has to still let light through, so it became a greenhouse.
To stop zombies from strolling along the catwalk into our base, I destroyed its connection to our walls. I decided to experiment with the fancy new metal hatch. It looks really awesome!
So I put one hatch in the garden…
Then I dug an underground tunnel to the base and put another hatch inside. We now have a secret passage from the base to the garden, and no more zombies seem to have spawned on top of the greenhouse.
Minibike Chronicles
Another thing that the Posse wanted to experiment with that we never have before was building minibikes. Until this game, we never had the books and the resources, and just didn't play the game long enough on one map to build a minibike. So, we made it a goal to make them, and we were successful!
But the thing about minibikes is that you have to store them somewhere safe. Since we use ladders to get in and out of our base, I had to devise a sort of protected garage for our new bikes.
I decided to be flamboyant and learn about drawbridges. That's right. I built a garage with a drawbridge that spans over a pit of spikes for the curious zombies that come our way.
If you look, you can see the cement ramp located just under the hammer there. The drawbridge's footprint is such that you can stand on the ramp and still open and close it. So you just drive your bike up, open the door, and ride inside the little garage to park!
The minibikes are a bit buggy and difficult to learn to drive at first, but they sure do speed up travel time. Of course, to ride the bikes, you have to have gas. So, Syn did her research and learned how to mine oil shale. She also learned how to make the chemistry station, which in turn, creates the gas.
From there, we started getting gas production going. I think we're pretty set on this…
Against the Horde
Our base is slowly being upgraded to the first level of steel. But with the hordes we've been getting lately, we need everything we can get!
Even the screamer zombie hordes are getting harder. The last one spawned a zombie bear, which is the first we've ever seen. Syn discovered quickly that going 1v1 with a zombie bear with just a crossbow was not a good idea.
The bear then learned the superior power of our spikes and firearms.
The night 36 horde was massive. We had zombie corpses littering everywhere when it was done.
The base held up just fine under all this. A major success!
