The Higurashi Cookbook
With the numerous cookbooks and cooking shows on TV, it can be hard for novice chefs to know just where they should start. Worry no longer, however, for we have just the solution- in the form of the comprehensive and easy to use Higurashi Cookbook! And here on Tuesday Rumble, we have been given exclusive permission to reprint extracts from this, the newest contender on the culinary literature market.
- Now remember, when making snacks, be sure to push the needles in as far as they will go. The last thing you need is your hapless victims realising what they are about to bite into.
- Bitter-tasting poisons add a nice spice to the traditional bento box, and should be readily employed alongside more conventional sauces and flavourings.
- When preparing meat, be sure to use a nice, sharp cleaver. There's nothing more rewarding than chopping it up into nice, small chunks. Also note that rare steak is in this season; the bloodier the better.
- The Oyashiro-sama platter requires extensive preparation, but once you get the knack of disembowelling the animal, you will be well on your way to preparing this most rare of delicacies.
- Don't throw away those bits and pieces left over after a nice long torture session- toss them all into the pot and boil them all up for a tasty soup.
Pick up these and other handy food preparation tips in the Higurashi Cookbook- on sale now from all good retailers!
The Nice Boat Panel
Especially for this week's Tuesday Rumble, we showed the 'nice boat' replacement for School Days 12 to a test audience, who were specifically told that this was the real final episode. Let's see their reactions.
A: If you ask me, this was the best episode of the series, although I think the studio was quite bold to switch to entirely live action.
B: Yes, it certainly beats everything Gainax has come up with.
C: I don't know about you guys, but I had a hard time making out the characters, who I assume were meant to be inside the boat.
B: What was that boat all about anyway? Was it meant to be a metaphor for something?
A: Of course it was! Couldn't you see that it symbolised how the leads had thrown away their youthful innocence in favour of short-term gratification?
C: I thought it was a ferry taking Makoto across the Styx.
A: No, no, that's way too obvious- you've got to look deeper.
B: Hey, you don't think that this wasn't actually the final episode of School Days, do you?
A: Don't be stupid! This ending fits the series perfectly!
At this point, our panel is told the truth
A: Oh… [signs off]
B: Wow, the real ending has a nice boat too!
C: Which was the real ending again?
Sister of Wellber 8
"Give me HARD GAY!"
"Ah thank you, and what a worthy sword it is too."
"It is completely alien to those of us who prefer men."
"And now I suppose you want something in return for the HARD GAY."
"Oh come on, we've had HARD GAY ever since we were children."
"But since then, it's been hard to find the time."
"And now that you are carrying my child, you probably won't want to do it too often."
"You fool- my Sword is more than a match for yours even if I am pregnant!"
"Feel my Blade!"
"Oh yes, that's good!"
"And now for the climax!"
"Ah yes, HARD GAY is truly for me- in fact, I hate women so much that I have started murdering them."
Meanwhile, Tina is ready for some HARD YURI.
"Just get undressed already!"
"He fears that the Prince is overexerting himself, and that it may damage the baby."
No mention of this series would be complete without a touch of HORSE.
Random Thoughts: Alphonse Elric
This week we talk to Al of Fullmetal Alchemist! Al, how did you feel when you landed your breakout role- and were then told that you'd be spending the series as a suit of armour?
Well, of course it wasn't quite what I imagined, but sometimes you have to take a chance and work with what you're given. I think it turned out well overall, and it's certainly made me a household name, even if no one ever seems to buy my merchandise. I mean come on people, please at least get one of my die-cut key rings.
Did you ever think of using your uniqueness to your advantage to land roles in other series as a mech?
It's funny that you should ask that, because I did go on Utawarerumono for a bit- I was Kuuya's Avu Kamuu, and the guys from Lab 5 played Hien and Hau's armours. You might have also spotted me on Busou Renkin, but I didn't want to take too many roles because there's always a danger of being typecast.
Ah yes, of course. Do you think you'll ever go down the armour route again, or are you happy in your own body?
I'm very happy with my work as a suit of armour, but in my mind that's over and done with now. I want to see what I can do with my own strength, instead of being picked because I happen to be large and metallic.
Did you ever think it was more than coincidence that come rain or shine, your blood seal never washed away?
I was worried about that at first, and because the producers wanted that emotion in my performance, they never really reassured me. I think it really honed my performance, but in retrospect I realise they wouldn't let one of their stars get killed on set.
And finally, do you have any juicy secrets about Ed that you'd like to reveal to us?
Nii-san would kill me if I said anything!
This Week in Anime

"I know I suggested experimenting with Mallet, but this isn't quite what I had in mind."
"Tea!? I hate tea!"

Visit Hinamizawa now, and enjoy wholesome fun for everyone!
Please note: in most a scant handful of insignificant realities, there is a chance that you may get bloodily murdered by the psychotic residents. We are required by law to warn you of this, but in truth the risk is very real minimal and will most likely end in your death not affect your stay.
OST spotlight: Makai Kingdom
As I said yesterday, Makai Kingdom was bereft of the input of composer Tenpei Sato, but whilst this makes it weaker than the average NIS game soundtrack, it isn't as bad as everyone makes out. Admittedly, there's a lot of looping and stretches of filler tracks, but nonetheless the music manages to retain that quirky Netherworld atmosphere, and it even tosses in some catchy action themes along the way. It's perfect music for easy background listening- not worthy of the bulk of your attention, but a nice accompaniment to whatever work you may be doing at the time.
Notable tracks: The Devil's Entrance, Darkness Darkness, Alexander the God of Destruction, Makai Fusion, Quiet Tension
Mini-rant: Answering back to Answerman
Answerman has angried up my blood for a long time, but never before did I feel compelled to write about it- until today (or rather last week, but I ran out of time). He's always been grumpy, grouchy and inclined to jump down the throats of people who dare to disagree with him and the Great ANN-ADV Alliance, but finally the balance has been tipped by ill-timed venturing onto the forums. Like a troll with the power and right to be there, Answerman moves between threads, ready to spread sarcastic comments wherever he goes. Now personally, I couldn't care less whether not his opinion coincides with mine- what really gets on my wick, so to speak, is the way he so takes against anyone who doesn't appreciate that he is right and all-knowing. Worse yet, whenever he writes a filler column revisiting old questions and answers, he routinely admits that he either lied or didn't know what he was talking about- quite ironic for someone who puts himself on such a pedestal.
Anyway, for the good of all I tend not to read Answerman anymore, but I just had to write this self-indulgent little rant, and now let us imagine Answerman's reply were he to read this-
"Oh whoop-de-do, I got flamed by some wannabe writer from an insignificant blog at the back end of the internet- I really will be losing sleep tonight! Go and get a life, sister- you don't like me, deal with it. And don't put words into my mouth, you aren't the remotest bit funny."
In Your Reflection
This week, we see a head-to-head between two black and white pairs of creatures- the Mokonas from Tsubasa/xxxHOliC and the Usas from Magical Pokan. Both are paired magical creatures with special abilities and a generally laid back attitude, although the Mokonas are somewhat more impressive in that they can talk, move items between dimensions and even have their own plushies.

Am I right in thinking that a stand alone mobile device like an iPhone can't use any database from the Gallery Downloads web site if it is provided in a zip file. Mobile devices have to have a workstation to be able to unzip the file and then desktop connect to the iPhone to install in? I've been doing the later for years, because it was easy, but did not understand how crippled a mobile device was without a partner computer.
My question is... If the above is the case, why doesn't the Gallery provide the space to upload multiple files without zipping them and making them unusable to those people with lonely mobile devices which is becoming more common with the iPad for instance. There should be a way to upload the file, the form and at least some additional few things like a photo or other file that it the main one is linking with.
Am I wrong?

Happy Fathers Day
Well this is the last time I am mentioning how mild our winters are in East London as we are having a really non-mild patch brrrrrrrrrrrrrr...
good indoor weather though.
I was avoiding all the Fathers Day cards challenges as I am not very successful with male orientated cards ,actually i don't really make enough effort.
However as we are seeing my Father in Law on Sunday , I felt I should make an effort as I always make a card for Mam and MIL...and what do you know ?
I love the card I made, and as a bonus I have discovered quite a few challenges I can enter .
Of course the main focus had to be a car or bike of some sort as he loves them both and I found a few great card pics amongst my stash from Dawn (dear sis)
So have a look and let me know what you think.
And the long list of Fathers Day challenges I am entering are:
Totally Gorjuss
Cas-Tastic Challenge
Cupcake Craft Challenge
Creative Inspirations
Crafty Cardmakers
Pear Tree designs
There are lots more out there but there is a limit to everything .
I would like to enter into one more challenge and this is a song challenge from Pollycraft Monday Challenge and my song inspiration is Baby you can drive my car

Late Kadi goal slays Celtic
Posted: 10 May 2014 Time: 16:32
A late strike by substitute Calvin Kadi gave Bidvest Wits a 1-0 win away at Bloemfontein Celtic in their final Absa Premiership match of the season.
No matter the result, Bidvest Wits would still have ended the season in third place, but Kadi's strike meant that Gavin Hunt's team finish the season very well and will take confidence into next week's Nedbank Cup final against Orlando Pirates.
The game looked to be heading for a goalless draw until Asive Langwe's free-kick found Kadi's head in the dying moments of the clash.
With one eye on next weekend's Nedbank Cup Final, Gavin Hunt made several changes to his regular Bidvest Wits starting team with the likes of Dennis Onyango, Benjani Mwaruwari, Robin Ngalande and Tinashe Nengomasha all getting a rare start.
But Hunt was forced into an early substitution when Nengomasha took a knock and could not continue, so he was replaced with the man who provided the goal, Asive Langwe, after just 18 minutes.
Siwelele rising star Lerato Lamola came the closest to opening the scoring in the 34th minute when his header cannoned of the upright following a cross by Lerato Manzini.
On the other end Benjani Mwaruwari put his header wide of goal in the 41st following some good work by the cross provider Siyabonga Nhlapo.
It took until the 59th minute for the Clever Boys to threaten on goal in the second half when Tebogo Moerane found Nhlapo and the midfielder slammed in a shot that Tignyemb managed to save.
A minute later and Bidvest Wits had to make another forced change when goalkeeper Onyango could not carry on and first choice Moeneeb Josephs replaced him.
Mogogi Gabonamong missed the target with a header following a corner inside the final 10 minutes, but Kadi would have the final say.
Inside referee's optional time, Calvin Kadi pounced to net the winning goal with his head.

"Do you know how can i tell when you are sad?"
Did you know when you are sad, you tend to smile smile a lot more.
You have a really beautiful laugh and i had always been amazed on how contiguous it is. It is the kind of laugh that make your eyes squeezed shut and you will eventually be out of breath.
but when you are sad, you will laugh a lot harder
your eyes stays open and there's not trace of humor in it and the sound of the laugh that you are making is almost heartbreaking.
You will ask twice if people say "i am fine" and you will add on "really?", "are you sure?" before you finally satisfied with their answer. Because deep down, you know when someone asks you the same exact question, you would never admit that you are not okay but just having someone who cares enough to ask twice, makes your heart warmer.
You will ask whether or not they are hungry every five minutes
You barely touch your lunch and you'd use "i am on my diet" as an excuse to give away your food to someone else.
because when you are sad, you would throw up right after you shove foods down your throat.
You barely touch your lunch and you'd use "i am on my diet" as an excuse to give away your food to someone else.
Your dark circles under your eyes and the hollowness inside it are proofs that you were crying the whole night again. You probably didn't get to sleep until three hours before your alarm goes off.
You sigh every once in a while and it didn't goes un-notice how with every deep breath you took and each sigh you released, your heart became more empty and colder.
There is this high wall that you put as a barrier every time you are sad. You always put it up to keep others away as if you are afraid they could peek inside of your venerable heart for once.
That is how i can tell when you are sad. surprise are you not? to know there is someone who cares enough to actually notice all these little things you've tried your best to hide.

I made a cute Birdhouse that can be used as a gift box.
Project Recipe:
Scoring Tool - Scor-Pal
Mat - Scor-Mat
Adhesive - Scor-Tape
Paper - My Minds Eye
Fence Border Punch - Fiskars
Loop Border Punch - Martha Stewart
Flower Die - Ellentina
Frame Die - Nellies
Flourish Die - Elegant Scrollwork by Memorybox
Ink - Inx Chox
Paint - Smooch
Spray - Smooch Spritz
Embossing Powder - Mix'd Media Inx in Chiffon, Honey and Peridot
For the sides of the birdhouse you need to 2 pieces of card stock measuring 6" by 5"
The base is 4" square
The front and back are 4" by 6"
For the sides score and 1" and 5" along the 6" side and at 1" on the 5" side.
Snip the corner as in the photo to form the flap that will create the base of the side and add Scor-Tape to adhere
Form the sides as shown in the photo using your Scor-Tool to create tight, crisp corners.
Add the 4" square base to the two sides.
Create the front and back by cutting at an angle from a 2" point on each long side to the center point (2") on the short side as in the photo.
Using a nesting style die cut a window in the front panel and then nest two together to cut a frame to go around the window and attach using Scor-Tape
Ink all edges with the Mix'd Media Inx pad
Attach the front and back panels to the flaps on the side pieces to form the birdhouse.
When I created mine I added an additional base (5" by 4" scored at 1/2" and 4 1/2" along the 5" side) to the inside in the opposite direction of the original base to give more stability
The roof is made from a piece of coordinating card stock measuring 6" by 8". Score at 4" along the 8" side and at 1" and 5" along the 6" side. Burnish the score lines and snip at the 4" score line to the intersecting score as in the photo to create the angle to make the roof. Ink all edges if desired.
Adhere the corners with Scor-Tape and use your Scor-Tool on the inside corners to create crisp corners.
The roof sits perfectly on the birdhouse
To decorate the flower I created some embossed flowers from flower dies, clear embossing ink, the Mix'd Media Inx Embossing Powder in Chiffon and my heat gun.
You can see the great enamel look the embossing powder gives to the flower>
For added sparkle I added some Smooch Spritz to the flowers.
Using the same technique I then created an enamelled punched edge and also flourishes.
I also punched strips for the roof to resemble a tiled look.
I hope you enjoyed this, sorry for the photo overload but I didn't want you to miss anything :)

You must be shocked but the answer is NO. Reasons are many on why the long registration forms don't work anymore and can be a key reason of poor conversions. The article explains why :
Forms are too long :
Users want everything simple and quick. But the need to fill a long sign up form every time a user visits a new website is no fun at all. Especially when the visitors are not able to find the connection between questions asked and the product they want to buy, they start losing patience and often decide to leave. No matter what significance those questions hold for your business, for users they are nothing more than a headache.
Need to register before the purchase :
As per Graham Charlton, asking visitors to register before buying the desired product can become the kiss of death for the purchase. Need to sign up prior purchase kills the momentum and makes users leave in order to look for simpler alternatives.
Inaccurate data :
90% users admit to fill up false information in registration process and you can't blame them, after all it is the reaction of the need to create another account. Most of the times, users are in hurry and they don't have time to read every question carefully so they often end up filling incorrect information in these forms which makes this data useless for you.
The headache of another username and password :
Creating another new account means the need of another site specific username and password to remember. With it comes, the complicated password criteria that makes users frustrated. Keeping track of password for a single website is simple but for multiple websites, it becomes too cumbersome for users and they prefer to leave.
So should you ask less information?
One solution to stop these visitors from leaving is to make registration forms short by limiting the information you ask in forms. But shorter registration forms means less data. Without having enough data businesses can't understand their user base.
So what is the real solution ?
With the arrival of social age, leveraging the power of social media by implementing social login can solve all these problems. All the information is already there on social media profiles and with social login, users can offer you the same with just a single click.
Users no longer need to keep track of another site specific username and password.
Social login simplifies the whole process of registration as all that it takes is a single click and users are in.
The simpler process of registration indicates higher sign-up rates thereby higher conversions.
Data fetched via social login is highly reliable and therefore can be used to create user oriented marketing decisions.

2 weeks ago saw the start of a much anticipated event, the Jersey Textile Showcase. Arranged by the Harbour Gallery, top textile artists from all over the UK flocked to Jersey to come and teach a series of full or half day workshops. My goodness I was excited!
I had 2 full days booked with Kim Thittichai, who specialises in 'hot textiles'. (Check out her blog and her time in Jersey here) Well I couldn't believe it, disaster struck and I came down with a terrible virus the day before my classes. I'm talking not being able to leave the house type illness. To say I was gutted was an understatement. But such is life, and I was lucky enough to meet Kim on the Friday at the Showcase Gala dinner. What a wonderful, colourful lady she is. I mean that metaphorically and literally - even her hair matched her turquoise top!!
On the Saturday I attended an afternoon workshop with Ineke Berlyn, working with Lutrador. It was so much fun, and I was thrilled with the little picture that I made.
I simply adore all of Ineke's work, and I can't wait to experiment more with this style of working. Lutrador is such a wonderful, versatile product, I really want to spend more time exploring the possibilities. Here's Ineke herself with a simply gorgeous sample that she made.
My final workshop with local Textile Artist Christine Witham experimenting with making decorative flowers. I decided to make a Sunflower...and it worked a treat because the very next day the sun came out so that I could get a decent photograph.
I'm so sad the showcase has ended. It's been such a wonderful event, and I've learnt so much in just a few short hours and it's left me wanting more. Not to mention meeting some wonderful, talented and lovely people. And all on my doorstep too :-))

I have just deactivated my Facebook account since a few days ago. It was surprisingly harder than I thought. This "deactivate" feature actually allowed me to erase my presence in Facebook, as if I never existed. My profile is now untraceable, my comments are gone, my posts to my friends' walls disappeared, my name also vanished from the photos I was tagged in (I know this effects from a friend who told me how I "look" after deactivating).
At day 1 being disconnected from my eight-hundreds-something friends made me feel like… I'm gone. It was a weird feeling, especially after being on Facebook on daily basis. Adding to my surprise: no one notices that I am gone. Even my boyfriend. Zonk!
But well, no big deal. I told myself: not everyone on Facebook all the time. Moreover, not everyone on my Facebook all the time. Life goes on. I have moved on.
So why did I deactivate it at the first place? There were several reasons behind it. Mostly because I know I was too much into it. I was there literally everyday to see what happened with my friends or moreover… with the world. Yes, Facebook is indeed a great tool to stay in touch with people (especially those who live far away). It is a handy stuff to stay updated with what happen with people I know. And at the same time it also offers lots of news, information, and entertainment (such as funny pictures, silly videos, words of wisdom, or just random babbling). Another reason which was the trigger of my "deactivating" was because of a Facebook incident related to Mr BF. I was publicly ignored by him and I wanted to protest by being disappear. Ironically, he didn't even notice that I'm gone. Fantastic!
Now it feels easier to be disconnected from Facebook. I still miss it once in awhile, feel like I lose contact with people I know and I have no idea what's going on with them. But it is also nice to not be bothered with the unpleasant things I might get from it. Facebook is sometimes mean, you know… :-). Meanwhile, I'll enjoy my leisure time doing more useful stuff and thinking more pleasurable ones.
I am amazed to realise that such virtual social network can affect me so much. And I am pretty sure I am not the only one. And I am more sure there are more people with more acute Facebook or other social media addiction. Well, I wish them a good night sleep :D.

Another D'oh moment when promoting values in the pipeline: Write vs Promote
I need to have a correlation set when an email comes in and when a file comes from an ftp site. The file name is not in the email. There is actually not anything that I can use to correlate between the two.
I figured that I simply would create a pipeline component and correlate off that context property. So I whip up a pipeline component that is REALLY easy, I have a property in the propertybag that can be set in design/promote time.
I use the following code:
inmsg.Context.Write("PropertyValue", "http://PromotionPropertyValue.Property", Value); return inmsg;
I create the correlation set and deploy away. However when I pull the file from the FTP site, the orchestration does not start up!
I look at the subscriptions and this is what I see:
Well, of course I have that promoted, I just did it in the code, so I look at the message that is suspended (cause it had no where to go).
WHAT! The value is there, but it is not Promoted.
I then went in and looked thru the methods available here and I saw Promote instead of Write. I changed the code to look like this:
inmsg.Context.Promote("PropertyValue", "http://PromotionPropertyValue.Property", Value); return inmsg;
I ran the message thru again and this is what I saw afterwards:
Now my orchestration was kicked off and I am a happy camper. (Okay, not quite, the rest of the logic has to be tested now.)

Research in our group involves the development of novel strategies for the synthesis of medicinally active heterocycles. Our work is mainly focused on the applications of the well-known Bestmann-Ohira reagent in the synthesis of nitrogen heterocycles.
The Bestmann–Ohira reagent (BOR, dimethyl α-diazo-β-oxopropylphosphonate) is a well-known reagent for the homologation of aldehydes to terminal alkynes under mild conditions and this reagent is particularly useful for the homologation reactions of delicate substrates. Later, notable reports by Namboothiri and Smietana, as well as recent advances, have shown that the dimethyl (diazomethyl) phosphonate anion (DAMP) generated in situ from BOR could be employed as a versatile 1,3-dipole for the synthesis of phosphonylpyrazoles from numerous electrophilic olefins.1 Yet, despite the significant progress achieved in this field, most reactions require pre-functionalized olefins to generate the desired pyrazole derivatives, and a direct utilization of commercially available or readily accessible substrates in a domino-multicomponent reaction to effectively generate functionalized pyrazoles still remains unexplored. We have recently developed an attractive protocol for the regioselective synthesis of densely functionalized pyrazoles and spiro-oxindoles-pyrazolines employing BOR as a 1,3-dipolar species in a domino-pathway. Furthermore, an efficient strategy has been uncovered demonstrating for the first time that BOR can be employed in a domino multicomponent reaction involving aldehydes and amines for the diastereoselective synthesis of 1,4,5-trisubstituted-1,2,3-triazolines.2 Moreover, a domino-HWE homologation/1,3-dipolar cycloaddition/oxidation sequence involving BOR has been disclosed for the regioselective synthesis of densely functionalzed phosphonylpyrazoles.

And so it comes to pass: the perceived failure of quantitative easing to deliver economic growth has led to calls for even more quantitative easing. The puzzled public are caught between the mounting shrieks of 'if at first you don't succeed… but this time with conviction' on the one hand, and 'only a fool makes the same mistake twice…' on the other.
I don't intend to settle this debate – declaring it 'right' or 'wrong' oversimplifies what is a complex issue. But there are some important points that are worth emphasising.
Firstly, let's confront terminology. QE is not exotic or new – it is just printing money. Even if it has the best intentions to not let it escalate into hyperinflation, the Bank of England buying assets on the secondary market is essentially a gradation of the policy that Mugabe's government has unleashed in Zimbabwe. One arm of government is buying up the debt of the other. We can pretend that those two arms are separate, but that illusion is becoming harder to maintain by the day.
Finding the right solution to the current economic challenges depends on correctly identifying the actual problem. Consider the issue of bank bailouts. The original reason for having a lender of last resort was to provide emergency liquidity during a bank 'panic' and to help unwind unsound banks so that they wouldn't pose a systemic risk. As time has passed since the first round of QE1 we have realised that it wasn't merely a short-term liquidity problem, but a fundamental one of solvency. This cannot be cured with a quick gush from the monetary spigot, and direct bailouts merely obscure the distinction between liquidity and solvency problems further.
It's also the case that monetarists are right to mock scaremongering about hyperinflation. When QE1 was launched in March 2009 I warned that we were in for another bout of inflation, and I confess that this has yet to materialise. Yes, the CPI is above target (3.1%), but not to the extent that I (and others) feared. Having said this, we should avoid making the same mistake we did in the build up to the financial crisis by focusing solely on the CPI as our inflation measure. The RPI is at 4.6%, and the PPI for input prices is 9.5%. We should also remember that inflation could manifest itself in asset price bubbles, for example in the gilt market or emerging markets. So although QE might be 'working' a little 'better' than we realise, we are still waiting for the forecasted inflation to truly bite.
Indeed, those who believe that low interest rates and a fast growing monetary base imply expansionary monetary policy make the same mistake that economists made during the Great Depression. Then, as now, they were actually signs of an inept central bank failing to offset a fall in the broader money supply.
This suggests that monetarists have a case when they argue that QE hasn't been enough. The fact that gilts have such low yields suggest that markets believe that deflation is the more likely evil (for now), and indeed it is bizarre for central banks to try to inflate their way out of trouble whilst keeping inflation expectations anchored.
Central banks have created a tightrope with hyperinflation on one side and a deflationary spiral on the other, and by attempting to convince markets that they are alert to these threats they can increase the chances of both. Their concerns over inflation mean that they keep inflation expectations low. This increases the chance of deflation.
The excess liquidity that QE creates will find its way into the real economy at some point – possibly after the economy has already begun to recover naturally – and this is why having an exit strategy is so important. Again, the more confidence markets have in the efficacy of such a strategy, the harder it is for QE to 'work', but doubts remain as to whether this can be navigated. Some argue that it's simple to hike up interest paid on reserves, or possibly even confiscate such reserves when banks begin lending again. However, this overestimates the Bank of England's ability to anticipate events.
Some are concerned by the incentives that bank officials and policy makers face, and question whether they possess the practical skill set and motivation to do a better job of managing the bust than they did with the boom.
The main problem, though, is a knowledge problem – that no central agency possesses the knowledge required to 'know' how much money should be in circulation. There is a plausible free market argument to say that under certain institutional conditions (such as competitive banks and no moral hazard), increases in the money supply to offset changes in the demand for money would avoid adjustments having to take place through the notoriously 'sticky' real economy. In the same way that inflation creates real effects, so does a monetary deflation, and these effects are neither desirable nor necessary. However, whether this theoretical possibility can be acted upon is another matter. Even if central bankers had the benevolence to try to replicate markets, they most certainly do not possess the omniscience. Expecting such economists to comment on the 'appropriate' level of monetary expansion misunderstands the whole point. It is merely wishful thinking to expect central bankers to stabilise MV without returning to the conditions of the original boom – and setting the stage for another bust.
Indeed, attempts to do so exacerbate the paralysis of the economy. Policies like QE increase regime uncertainty and generate systemic instability. They have the potential to make matters worse, and ignore the fact that you cannot buy confidence. The Bank for International Settlements – one of the few organisations that foresaw large elements of the financial crisis – warns about the upside risk of continued low interest rates. Systemic misallocation of capital (including human capital) remains. Excessive risk-taking remains. Over-leveraged balance sheets remain. Volatile capital flows remain. We know that we still don't know the amount of toxic debt in the economy, so not only are the conditions that led to the crisis still at work, but they are growing as time passes.
For free market economists, there is a positive programme for laissez-faire. Firstly, economic recovery will only come when we begin to rebuild the capital stock through investment. And rather than recapitalise the banks through taxpayer bailouts, it can be done through an increase in voluntary savings. Secondly, the recession itself is a sign that markets are adjusting, and that entrepreneurs are engaging in the recalculation that is required to understand which plans were unprofitable and where capital should be reallocated. Allowing relative prices to adjust as quickly as possible, reducing labour market rigidities, and improving labour mobility will all help with this. These policies are independent of the social safety nets that prevent such adjustments degenerating into long-term unemployment and stagnation, and no one would argue that the recoveries are painless. But it is better to confront the realities of life to allow a recovery to take place than attempt to maintain the economy in a permanent frozen state.
To be sure, such policies will not return us to the euphoria of 2008, but they will generate a platform for genuine and sustainable economic growth. There is an alternative to more QE.

WCIRB Produces Massive SB 863 Study
California's Workers Compensation Insurance Rating Bureau (WCIRB) has recently produced a massive monitoring study on Senate Bill 863. The monitoring plan is basically an outline and specifications on future SB 863 studies.
The outline itself is 23 pages in length.
The plan is separated into Indemnity and Medical benefit delivery changes. The studies that are planned for publication in 2013 include:
- Indemnity Claim Frequency Changes
- Liens
- Surgical Implant Hardware
- Ambulatory Surgical Care Centers (ASC's)
- % of Medical Care Provided in Medical Provider Networks (MPN's)
- Independent Bill Reviews
The most discussed study results will likely be liens. However, the one that should be interesting and may possibly apply outside of CA is the medical treatment provided by MPN's. Proper use of employer directed medical care is control of the claim and lower costs to provide an acceptable level of medical care. MPN's are CA's version of medical treatment panels in other states.
States that do not have employer directed medical care or medical treatment panels have been shown to be much more expensive to provide applicable care.
Surgical implant hardware analysis may produce unexpected results. This type of medical treatment has rarely been studied at length. Implanted hardware has been a very controversial topic for many years.
ASC's have long been a controversial topic in certain states. Outpatient treatment were allowed to be off-fee-schedule which caused much inflated charges to be incurred by TPA's, carriers, and in turn employers.

Day 1 of conscious decision making:
It was very eye opening to spend the entire day making conscious decisions. For so long, I've thought that every decision I was making was conscious, turns out that just isn't so. More often I find myself making decisions based on habits I've formed, especially around food and exercise.
While I have a notebook I'm using to document my decisions, I won't bore you with all the details … maybe just a few with a few points on each. I'll focus on decisions I made and how they made me feel.
I was able to squeeze in 30 minutes of my yoga dvd before work. Before the workout my self talk was 'I don't have time', 'I'll start tomorrow'. Ultimately, I knew I would feel better for making an effort in moving my body for a bit.
Did really well the first part of the day, made solid decisions and felt good. We were working on a late night project at work and my company bought us pizza. This was a moment for me. I enjoy living life. I enjoy social camaraderie around food and drinks. It felt good to choose to have 1 piece of pizza (they were big slices folks, large Chicago style pieces) and be done (where I normally would have had 2 or 3 without thinking). Now, here is where the learning comes into play. 2 ½ hours later, when the project was done I was still hungry and we found ourselves, once again, gathered around the cold pizza. Instead of one of the healthy snacks I had in the fridge (yogurt) I had another piece and wasn't satisfied at all. Gross.
Satisfaction. In the moment I'll be asking myself what will make me feel satisfied and what are my options. While I did choose the 2nd piece, It wasn't what would make me satisfied, and I knew it.
Then … ohh yes … more indulgence … we went out for a cocktail. Could I have had water? Yes. But, I had a vodka soda instead. I'm a beer girl … but for the sake of calories and overall drink vs. diet I went with the vodka soda. Once in a while I'll have water, ice tea, etc. and some days I'll be having a drink. That's the way it's gonna be.

Thomas S. Monson Quotes About ResponsibilityQuotes about: Responsibility
Let me begin now, this very night, to emulate Christ. Cast off forever will be the old self and with it defeat, despair, doubt, and disbelief. To a newness of life I come--a life of faith, hope courage, and joy. No task looms too large; no responsibility too heavy; no duty is a burden. All things become possible.
In the performance of our responsibilities, I have learned that when we heed a silent prompting and act upon it without delay, our Heavenly Father will guide our footsteps and bless our lives and the lives of others. I know of no experience more sweet or feelings more precious than to heed a prompting, only to discover that the Lord has answered another's prayer through you.
I would hope that we would not lose the real objective of our cherished opportunities to serve. That objective, that eternal goal, is the same spoken of by the Lord and found in the Pearl of Great Price: "For behold, this is my work and my glory-to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man." May we ever remember that the mantle of membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is not a cloak of comfort but rather a robe of responsibility. Our duty, in addition to saving ourselves, is to guide others to the celestial kingdom of God.
Each of us can be a leader. We need to remember that the mantle of leadership is not the cloak of comfort, but the robe of responsibility. Perhaps our service is to youth. If so, I caution: 'Youth needs fewer critics and more models.' One hundred years from now it will not matter what kind of a car we drove, what kind of a house we lived in, how much we had in the bank account, nor what our clothes looked like. But the world may be a little better because we were important in the life of a boy or a girl.

Build Log
ASK13 1:10 build
Over the last two years I've flown and still learning on my epos; 2m Radian, ST Models DG-1000 & modded ASW28 in thermals and some very light ridge soaring off of tree tops, mostly fly from flat fields in Vermont. I like the idea of easy transportation and smaller size of 2 meters. I know 2m is not considered the best for sailplane size, but I began looking at the ASK13. This looks like something I could actual build with it's semi-square fuselage and maybe there are plans in 1:10 scale? Wow, so kewl, like an early Porsche 911s, this sailplane is the bees knees. Love the forward swept wings, stubby cockpit bubble nose and it has such a dedicated following.
(note: I recently built a small hand thrown 21" wing span DFS Reiher, think "chuck glider" but with my studioRS graphics twist, out of balsa and this got my teeth wet. Something about carving balsa, gluing it up, sanding, balancing it and covering with my graphics - chucking for a real flight was amazing - it flew!)
I'm hooked. I've decided to make my first scratch build "erstes bauen" on a 1:10 scale ASK13 - a trainer on a training mission. I found these ASK13 plans and build log. It doesn't look like he's posted photos of a finished sailplane yet, but looks good so far.
Full credit and inspiration of my ASK-13 project go to the designer here...
First, start to buy the right tools and parts.
- Small scroll saw. Found one on craigslist but missed out on it. Darn, sometimes things happen for a reason. Asked a fellow buddy at the office the next day if he knew of a scroll saw for sale and viola - get this - he has a complete Craftsman minitool set Made In Germany in the back of his Range Rover Classic - OMG! What a find, he said I can borrow it for as long as I need (btw, sold here in NJ as MiniLux tools through MicroMark). I'm in heaven.
- Glue. Medium CA, check got some. Ambroid, check, got a tube although, I prefer German UHU Hart but, my tube is almost done, drats need more! Hmmm, Hobby-Lobby doesn't import anymore. Update: found it in Canada and just ordered last night from eurorailhobbies.com in British Columbia.
- Wood. Looking at National Balsa Sitka Spruce for the wing spars, good bad? I've already cut the wing loading fuselage bulkheads #4, #5 out of 3.1mm Birch ply and decided to cut the remaining ones out of 2.3mm Basswood - easy work for the minitool. Man I feel like a happy elf with that thing
Anywho, here are some initial photos and progress. Next step is to build the jig and get jiggy with it. MoF, I've never covered a sailplane with monokote! I do have some local pros in my club that can help me there. This should be a fun, interesting learning build, hopefully this 2m size will fly.
I really want to keep it scale and slope soar down at Cape Cod but, that's 6 hrs south of me - need to move there I guess. I'm going to be really stressed to aerotow this and a motor in the nose has saved me (still a fledgling as far as flying goes, just a total scale sailplane enthusiast) and I've never done aerotowing yet... My plan is to keep practicing on my epo's with motors off as much as possible. I do have to take you up on your offer Len to come down to CT to learn.
Hopefully with the support of the scale police I can resist the temptation of installing a folding prop in the nose
Cheers, Thompson

Looks interesting. I love the sailplanes of that era since it's when I learned to fly.
While larger is better in many respects, smaller sailplanes can catch thermals the larger ones never notice. Discus launched gliders can fly all day in thermals while six meter jobs go up and come down with nary a hint of lift.
Good luck with your build.
Thanks Pete! I'm really looking forward to this build and you know I took the red pill 'cause all I think about during the day is revving up that little elf minitool again at night.
I need to source some 6mm ID aluminum tubing and 4.8 or 5mm OD carbon fibre arrow shaft to slip into it for the wing saddle support. I do have another fellow work bud that used to own an archery store - go figure - and has stock of carbon fibre and aluminum arrowshafts. Working on that one.
My plan is to wrap around the aluminum tubing on the bulkhead with some type of either safety wire or thicker thread and epoxy over. Just seems like such a stressed area. Or would just epoxy be fine?
Also, the plans call for such a short section of carbon for the wing support. I guess after the 5-6th ply wing spar the boxed spruce will take the load fine. My gut feeling wants to extend the carbon all the way out.
I too have a love for the K-13. Here's a few photo's.
@prodjx - wonderful period photographs! Thats great you flew and are actually in one of them! What year did you fly and were these taken, early 70s? Is that the club name or field location, city on the nose?
Quick Q since you have actually been inside a cockpit. In the nose area, are there cross supports behind the larger fiberglass sections? In other words, in between each bulkhead tubular support do cross supports of smaller tubes exist? I'll hunt down some photos of a restoration, gotta be some out there. My concern is that having only balsa skin with a monocote covering, while light, might not be the strongest for my lack of landing talents. Wonder if I should cover over the balsa nose section, similar to the real AS K-13, with light fiberglass instead of monocote? If I can make it light enough, should be ok?
And what is the correct display for the logotype "AS K-13", or ASK13, AS K13?
I do remember seeing your posts and photos in another much older AS K-13 thread, which of course all of that has helped with my inspiration to go ahead with my build. I don't think I've located another 1:10 build thread yet.
For the jig, I've decided to use a nice piece of Maple (seems appropriate being from Vermont - the peice in the photos) and small upright 1x3/4 sections. I can screw these in from the bottom and countersink the holes. Will have to find someone with a table saw (hopefully another friend at work!) to cut the small upright pieces, very square. It is hard, flat and should work well as these plans call to hang the fuselage upside down while building. More progress to come...
Found some pretty good detail interior cockpit shots and build thread of a 2.73m. I won't have the luxury of space for detailing like this but I'll try my best. Here is a photo from the page of a real AS K-13.
Organized and cleaned up the bulkheads, ready to make the jig.
Poked around and found another 1:10 ~ 1:9 scale at 1,800mm build in France. Plans from Alfred Bellac from Fly Magazine #7, Oct 1995. Foam wing construction with balsa sheeting and simple balsa, polystyrene fuselage fiberglassed, simple elevator. Looks great finished. Making a hot wire cut foam wing sounds tempting.
Build photos
I kind of blew the caption on that photo of me. Wiesbaden and Klagenfut are sister cities. One of their glider club's A/C had Wiesbaden painted on the nose of their sailplane, an Mg-23 I believe. The time frame of these photo's was late 60's and the location is where I earned my B Badge. BTW if you've drawn up plan's I'd be willing to buy a copy.In my Martin Simon's book it's listed as an ASK-13.
B Badge, I am assuming, must be this?
Minimum Requirements
"'B' Completed 'A' Badge requirements.
Soaring flight of at least 5 minutes at or above previous low point after release.
Successful landing. Show knowledge of rules of the air, including rules appertaining to airspace.
Shows a standard of proficiency reached.
I need to go fly in a real sailplane and then take lessons, nice. There is a glider port south of me an hour or so at sugarbushsoaring.com and they have an ASK-21.
In as much as I would "like" to take credit for these plans I can't. I found them from a gentleman in the Netherlands. I've tried emailing to thank him and received a bounce so, not sure what is up there.
I printed these out at 100% and taped together. Seems to work fine, with a few measurement adjustments on the placement of the F1-F3 bulkheads as shown.
EDIT: Fuselage and wing plans need slight reworking, will update revised version here in this post.
NOTE: I have noticed the shape of the fuselage nose, skid / skate and canopy need revising. I laid the orginal drawings from (scalesoaring link.co.uk link) Alexander Schleicher ASK-13 over these and the shape differs ever so slightly but enough to make the scale police take notice. I will make the adjustments and upload a corrected fuselage PDF, the one listed below is the original uncorrected plan.
Last edited by studioRS; Nov 26, 2012 at 04:59 PM. Reason: edited plan adjustment notes
Built the grid over at my friends who happens to be an Architect, cabinet maker, and lover of wood—and oh yeah, he has the tools! My career started as a draftsman with rapidiograph pens, pencils and then CAD so I know the importance of accuracy in plans to project. The base piece is Cherry not Maple with finished pine uprights.
Here is a photo from last night, checking the fitment and alignment before tacking these up. Need to purchase 7mm aluminum tubing, have a 6mm carbon arrowshaft ready.

The K-13 is coming along nicely. WoW Sugarbush, when I returned to the state's I joined the Long Island Soaring Assoc. and continued to fly glider's mostly in the club's 2-33's, the club used to aerotow some of their A/C up to Sugarbush. Is Mt. Washington up near there? We also used to go to the Labor Day get together at PGC in Hill town P.A. got to see and photograph some vintage sailplane's, Tern (which I have a set of plan's for the real deal) SHK Austria, a Blanik L-13 which I flew there. Stan Hall Cherokee II's and the list goes on. BTW I also have plan's for a 1/5 scale ASW-15 and a 1/6th scale C-30 Edelwiess. Some day, today I start the l/h side of a mold for a friend's design, the Tango, a dedicated slope glider. I've been on a mold making jag lately. And there's more I want to make. TTYL Dave.
Good luck on the moulds, never ventured there, yet... This is my first scratch build !
Here are the adjusted fuselage plans, my updates to the nose, canopy and rudder are shown in RED.
More photos. I used Ambroid to tack the fuselage pieces to each jig member. Ambroid cracks easier when hard than UHU Hart and if you place each piece up for alignment, then put a dab of Ambroid on the outside it tacks up well and can crack off easily.
Maybe Ambroid should study UHU Hart chemical and physical properties more? UHU goes down similar to Ambroid, but after the VOCs evaporate it retains an epoxy like bond afterwards. You KNOW my complete sailplane will be glued together with Made in Germany UHU Hart. Ahh, die klugen Deutschen!
I'm beginning to see why you build larger scale sailplanes, this fuselage is small.
The fuselage bulkheads #9, #10 I used two 3/8x3/8 balsa pieces and just glued it on the base.
(ps... received an email today that my order of UHU Hart went through from eurorailhobbies.com, but is on back order, shucks - only two weeks though, good news).

Very nice !
I've always been an ASK-13 fan !
Got to fly one at Alberta bluffs in Michigan several yrs ago.
Must take time to build a model of it soon.

Something from a photowalk in August...18:12
Sometimes it is good to put a bit of space between shooting and developing the final images. This one has had a bit of maturing over time, like a fine wine. This particular shot caught my eye initially as a colour image. However given a bit of time I have changed my mind, and am presenting it to you as a black and white. Enjoy.

First New Zealand Report on Implementing the CRPD
Source: UN OHCHR
Where we stand
1 New Zealand's vision of full participation and improved wellbeing for disabled people of all ages has developed over several decades. The process began in the 1970s with a paradigm shift from exclusion and care outside mainstream society to a social model of disability, with inclusion and mainstreaming as the default option, and supplementary support services for disabled people as required.
2 The adoption of a national Disability Strategy has further advanced this vision:[1] Since 2000, New Zealand law has required a national Disability Strategy[2], under which the Minister for Disability Issues is required to report to Parliament annually on progress made. The Disability Strategy, which includes initiatives across government, is reviewed on an ongoing basis.
3 New Zealand's vision is reflected in its support for the Convention: The principles given effect in the Disability Strategy provided the basis for New Zealand's role in the development of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (the Convention). The shift in approach undertaken since the 1970s enabled New Zealand to ratify the Convention in September 2008.
4 The legislative framework is sound and comprehensive:[3] The rights of disabled people are provided for in New Zealand's general human rights law, the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 1990, in its specialised non-discrimination law, the Human Rights Act 1993, and in specific recognition in legislation governing health, education and other social services. Before ratifying the Convention, New Zealand reviewed its law for consistency with the Convention and made necessary amendments.
Engagement with disabled people
5 Disabled people are essential partners: Partnerships between government, disabled people and their families, and the disability sector along with robust means of communication underpin New Zealand's continued commitment to its broad vision and to the Convention:
5.1 Disabled people were members of the New Zealand delegation for the negotiation of the Convention;
5.2 As part of its engagement with the negotiations, the Government established a standing disability sector reference group. The reference group has continued as a key means of consultation and currently comprises 74 representatives of disabled people, family members, disability advocates and disability service providers;
5.3 In both the negotiation and the ratification of the Convention, the Government sought wider input from disability organisations and providers, including the perspectives of children and their advocates.
Our challenges
6 Disabled people are still disadvantaged: While there have been, and continue to be, improvements, many disabled people experience poorer outcomes in health, education, employment and elsewhere. The degree of relative disadvantage is still greater for women and for M?ori and Pacific people.
7 Disabled people still experience social discrimination and practical barriers: While the Government has taken many steps to strengthen the standing of disabled people, constraints remain in the attitudes of some people, who see disabled people as less than equal. There are also physical and environmental barriers: for example, New Zealand's small population and geographic diversity means that some services are concentrated in main centres and are not readily accessible in more remote areas.
8 Data about disabled people is still limited: While a range of data is collected, more is needed. As one response, the forthcoming national census is to be followed by an improved survey of disabled people to gather more detailed and more specific data.[4]
9 Support for disabled people can better reflect different cultural contexts: Across New Zealand's increasingly diverse community, attitudes to disabled people and to appropriate means of support can vary between different cultural groups. The Government includes requirements of cultural sensitivity when contracting for support services and is encouraging the development of indigenous providers and providers using indigenous cultural frameworks. Indigenous provision is still in its early stages.
Going forward
10 There is leadership at the highest level: Disabled New Zealanders have an advocate in the Minister for Disability Issues, supported by a Ministerial Committee on Disability Issues[5] and an Office for Disability Issues.[6]
11 The Government has set priorities for addressing the challenges that we face:[7] An independent implementation review found government agencies have undertaken a significant level of activity to implement the Disability Strategy but more is needed to produce real improvements in outcomes for disabled people.[8] Rather than each agency having their own action plan and focus, having a single combined action plan and priorities was recommended.
12 Realising the rightful place of disabled people in New Zealand society is an ongoing and multi-generational goal. The New Zealand Government is developing a Disability Action Plan and is taking concrete actions around three current priorities:
12.1 Accessible New Zealand – including enhanced community acceptance and improved access to transport and to information;
12.2 Enabling disability supports – allowing disabled people autonomy, wherever possible, and providing support as early as possible;
12.3 Contributing as citizens – better ensuring that disabled people can achieve in education and in paid work and can fully experience access to justice and all other rights as members of the community.
Preparation of this report
13 In keeping with its engagement with disabled people, the Government consulted widely in preparing this report:
13.1 The report and the proposed consultation process were both considered from the outset by the standing disability sector reference group;
13.2 A draft was circulated for comment both within the disability sector and across the community as a whole, and consultation procedures also included eight formal meetings, an online discussion forum, an invitation to provide written submissions and a separate survey for young disabled people and their families. Several of the consultation meetings were targeted at particular groups, including M?ori and Pacific peoples. Several hundred people and groups took up one or more of these opportunities.

[2] The New Zealand Disability Strategy.
[3] See, further, paragraph 14 below.
[4] The national census and disability survey were to occur in 2011. They have been delayed as a result of the major earthquake in Christchurch in February 2011, with new dates to be set shortly.
[5] See, further, Annex, paragraph 1.
[6] The Office for Disability Issues is the government agency responsible for promoting and monitoring the Disability Strategy and the UN Convention. It supports the Minister for Disability Issues and the Ministerial Committee on Disability Issues.
