Hi280 shelving plus a mobile shelving system provided Electrolux Distriparts AB, who are located in one of the major logistic areas of Sweden - Jönköping, with a modern picking facility. The company is a well established 3rd party logistic supplier with many customers i.e. Huskvarna AB. Warehouse space 35.000 m² containing approx 125.000 articles. Distriparts expanded their businesses and had a requirement to increase efficiency (speed of delivery) at their existing plant which was served by a crane installation. Difficulties getting spare parts for their existing cranes were also a major problem. Solution: An in depth analysis was carried out based on the following key factors – picking speed, warehouse capacity/m², staff. The result of this analysis was a tough modernized solution based on a shelving system over two levels (multi tier) divided by a mezzanine floor. Hi280 Shelving in combination with modern mobile shelving provided the answer to this problem. Picking is conducted by staff, using newly developed trolley mopeds. The investment has resulted in faster picking, a reduced number of employees and increased flexibility at the warehouse. Capacities: Shelving system Hi280, 15.000 shelves in depths from 300-800 mm. 24No. Compactus® mobiles units Pallet racking P90, various heights and load bearing capacity. 35.000 pallet locations.

Just another new guy here.....bit of a mind block on the intro here.....I usually post in car related forums, . Might as well ramble away.....
My name's Brandon, I'm 27 and from Saskatchewan. I spent 5 years working in the oilfield as a wireline operator. 3.5 years of that was based out of Alberta and involved a lot of travel into the northwestern part of Alberta and into BC. The last year and a half was closer to home in southeast Sask. I started in the oilfield with a tentative 5 year plan, slowly grew to hate my job over the years. No where really felt like home, the work consumed my life, was wearing my body down and got in the way of the things I enjoyed to do. I started looking for a change last fall, and got called for an interview 1 day after my 5 year anniversary with my company. Talk about timing. I ended up getting the job, and now work at a potash mine an hour from home. It makes for long days when I am working but the big upside is working less than half the year.
As for my personal life, I'm single and plan to stay that way. I'm an introvert, generally like my space and quiet time as well as the freedom to do as I please. My hobbies are weightlifting, fishing, motorcycles (dual sport and motocross), automotive restoration (doing a frame off on a 69 GMC), air brushing to some extent, cooking, and watching CFL football (Go Riders!). This past spring I looked after my brother's dog for a couple of weeks while he was on holidays. After she went home I found myself missing having a dog around. I didn't give it a whole lot of thought at the time, but a few weeks later I found myself browsing the dog classifieds on kijiji just to see. I gave a bit of thought to what I wanted. I felt due to my schedule it would be best to adopt a trained adult dog as house training a puppy would likely be quite difficult. A couple I lived with for a year while in Alberta had a young female boxer and I thought she was an all around awesome dog, and my goal was to find a dog similar to her.
And then I trip across Iris one day while searching kijiji. She was described as being a 3 year old boxer/pit mix and was being fostered through a dog rescue in Regina. I read through the ad and thought that she really seemed like the dog for me. Everything about her seemed like what I wanted in a dog, and I even felt some connection to the fact that she was deaf (I'm hearing impaired to some extent as well, I no longer have my left ear drum). Then I read through the adoption process and found it to be almost overwhelming. I procrastinated for about a week but everytime I was browsing kijiji I would see her picture and just had this nagging feeling like she was the one, so I finally decided to inquire about her. By time I got the adoption application filled out, I found out there were already 2 applications being processed ahead of mine. I felt like I had missed out on a great opportunity. I kept browsing kijiji over the next few weeks and a lot of adult boxers starting showing up. There were a few I was interested and I had planned to visit a few on my next set of days off. And then I got the e-mail that both applications for Iris ahead of mine had fallen though. The process took a couple of weeks before I finally got to meet Iris. She's been stuck to me like glue ever since, and there is never a dull moment with her around! The lady that fostered her managed to track her history back a bit through some info shared by somebody who saw her picture in the classified ad. It was quite a long, drawn out story. She's been adopted through the SPCA twice, and was bounced around from one household to the next many times. If I remember the story correctly, the last time she was found by highway workers as a stray in the ditch and they believe she had a bullet wound on her back end. Knowing her personality, it is truely an unbelievable story. People must have been frustrated by not knowing how to handle a deaf dog.
Iris had ended up being exactly the dog I wanted. She is full of energy but also loves being a couch potato. I think if she could spend every minute of the day by my side she would. The screens on my windows are all torn up because if I am out in the yard she just stands there watching me. She absolutely loves people, and despite getting a bit pushy at times she is very gentle even with kids. Despite being deaf she follows hand signals well in the house and yard. Beyond that she is hit and miss, but we are working on it. Part of the problem is she seems over-stimulated by sights and smells while we are out on walks and it is hard to get her full attention. I've been working with a vibrating collar both on walks and at the dog park (I only go during the day when nobody is there) and it has helped quite a bit so far. So far she seems to enjoy going fishing as it usually involves a bit of a nature walk. She took to going rollerblading quickly (she loves to run). Going to the dog park is an absolute blast for her. She used to enjoy tearing my back yard up where I was trying to grow grass. I decided to put sod in and made it a bit of an obstacle course to slow her down a bit, hopefully it works.
As for the question mark next to the boxer part of the title, I'm curious if others here would agree with that mix based on her pictures? I've done some browsing and it seems like I've found quite a few Boxer-AmStaff crosses that look like her. She has a similar physique to the boxer I spoke of previously, but is a couple inches shorter and a bit more muscular. She has the droopy eyes, and certainly plays like a boxer.
I've been uploading her pictures to flickr, I figure it's easier to link there than post them. http://www.flickr.com/photos/17118323@N ... 043041093/

Iris is BEAUTIFUL and she looks so happy. She is one very lucky girl that you stayed the course and ended up her human companion!! Bless your heart for giving her a wonderful home and life.
Stormi on this forum has a deaf dog and is a trainer/behaviorist. I'm sure she would love to answer any questions you have.
I hope we see many more photos of Iris and follow her long and happy life with you.

Job Seekers May Have Luck in Early 2013
(NEW YORK) -- If you've been looking for a job, you may have some luck early next year.
The employment firm Manpower says 17 percent of American businesses plan on hiring new workers in the first three months of 2013.
"Twelve of the 13 industry super sectors that we survey actually said that they would add. So we've got wholesale and retail trades, leisure and hospitality, professional and business services, information, financial activity, education and health services," Beth Herman of Manpower tells ABC News Radio.
The vast majority of employers, however, said they would keep their staff level the same. While that doesn't help the unemployed, Herman says it's a relief.
"We're not adding but we also don't plan to cut. We don't plan to cut because we're confident that we can hold on to this team. We can meet the payroll. We can make a profit. We have enough business today. We have enough business in our pipeline to justify the staff level we have," she says.
As tepid as the labor market may be, Herman says there have been no setbacks in hiring in the last 15 quarters. Companies are adding to their payrolls at a slow pace.

The 2006 Spring Mini-Workshop: The End of the Dark Ages - From First Light to Reionization at the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI), was held from Monday, March 13, 2006 to Wednesday, March 15, 2006 with a reception on Monday, March 13, 2006.
Recent progress in a number of areas of astrophysics has allowed us to begin studying the epoch when neutral hydrogen in the Universe completed its reionization. The Sloan Digital Sky Survey has provided us with the first sample of QSOs at z>6 and the first evidence that we may have seen the end of reionization. Searches for Lyman alpha emitting galaxies have been pushed to z=6.5 placing upper limits to the fraction of neutral hydrogen present at these redshift. At the same time, ultra deep HST surveys and surveys exploiting gravitational lensing are providing the first examples of galaxies at z>6. Finally, the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe has indicated that a significant fraction of neutral hydrogen can have been reionized at much higher redshift. Some of these results are at first sight incompatible but there are many hints that we may be on the verge of achieving a coherent picture of the processes leading to the end of reionization. Therefore the time is ripe for a workshop on this subject at the Institute. The workshop could be the occasion to bring together the leading observers and theorists and would have the potential to serve as a turning point for future research in this field that is central for the JWST mission.

Rychard Bouwens

Massimo Stiavelli, (Chair)

I am delighted you want to check out my personal website, however
please talk to my agents about commissions as they handle all of that for me.
I look forward to working with you.
MaGUMa is the pseudonym for Spanish artist Marcos Guardiola Martín, who is based in Madrid and works for a growing number of publications and international brands.
Inspired by artists like Moebius and Milano Manara, as well as old adult comics like Metal Hurlant and El Vivora, MaGUMa has developed a style that's bright, tactile and a little surreal. He draws almost constantly, but also loves to go climbing and cycling, which enables him to meet new people and experience the landscape. When it's time for a break, his sketchbook comes out and he captures the moment in a drawing. Other influences include Jackson Pollock, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Pablo Picasso.
Give us a few details and we'll get back

*Please Note – I recieved 2 pair of Hickies 2.0 in exchange for my honest review of this product.*
Hickies 2.0 were released in September of 2016. The concept behind them is to create the perfect lacing system that turns your shoe into a slip-on with the perfect fit for YOUR feet. Never again will you have to tie your shoes or worry about soggy laces after running in the rain. The concept is genius.
I get so annoyed when I have to stop to tie my own shoes (esp. mid-run) and don't even get me started on the morning routine of tying my kids shoes (YEESH!). I couldn't wait to recieve my Hickies – I had asked around and my friends who already owned them had ONLY good things to say. However, I was a little hesitant – I mean, I've worn regular shoe laces my whole life and THEY WORK. The concept of being able to slip them on and off seemed INCREDIBLE and yet- I'd never worn a pair of slip-ons that I could also run in without them coming off and maintain comfort. For this review, I recieved 1 pair of Adult and 1 pair of Kids sized Hickies in the mail. I immediately put them into my tennis shoes as well as my 10 year old son's shoes.
Hickies were MUCH easier to put into my shoes than I thought they'd be. It's just a matter of experimenting a bit to find the fit that YOU like! Of course they come with instructions that help you know where to start. THIS link will take you to their page that helps you figure all of this out!! They have pictures as well as short YouTube videos to help make sure you get the BEST fit for YOU!
Initially, I put the hickies in incorrectly! (There is ALWAYS a learning curve when doing something new, right?) Backwards, to be exact! But, I quickly figured out my mistake and corrected it. As you can see on THIS page – there are multiple ways to use the laces to create "the perfect fit" for YOU. I started with the Regular fit which was definitely TOO loose. I have always been one who liked my shoelaces TIGHT!! So, then I followed the Extra Tight video and ended with the using the regular fit for the top two holes – VOILA – perfection. (for me!) I immediately went on a quick run around the neighborhood and was AMAZED at how after a few steps – I forgot I had hickies in and just enjoyed the run. It took me taking them off at home to remember that they were now hickies!! (LOL!) I am IN LOVE and a little obsessed. My only regret is that I wish I'd jumped on board sooner!
My son LOVES his as well. He has asked me to get them for ALL of his shoes! (High praise for a 10 year old) He wears them everyday!
In truth, I find myself wearing my tennis shoe more often than I used to. I am still amazed when I reach down to slip them on my feet that they withstand running, jumping and every activity you can imagine. I forget I no longer have shoelaces in them. They are incredibly comfortable and move SOOO well. I am most certainly IN LOVE and look forward to acquiring MORE Hickies 2.0. Get yours HERE for 20% OFF using code USFAM and see for yourself how the Evolution of Shoelaces will change your life!

Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
Think fat only shows on the outside? Lidia Szczepaniak, PhD, will tell you that's not the case. Using a revolutionary research technique known as magnetic resonance spectroscopy, Dr. Szczepniak can measure the amount of fat inside an organ. The goal: to fight Type 2 diabetes—the kind that's linked to diet and that accounts for 90 percent of all diabetes cases. Not everyone who's overweight or obese goes on to develop the disease. Understanding how fat behaves inside organs may help doctors predict who's most susceptible—a big step to effective prevention.
Magnetic resonance spectroscopy is based on the same principles as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), but goes a step further: it extracts metabolic information from the organ it's imaging. "With this technique, we're able to accurately gauge how much fat is in the liver or the pancreas," says Dr. Szczepaniak. Prior to this noninvasive technology, that could only be done by first performing a biopsy—removing a part of the organ and then investigating the fat content.
According to Dr. Szczepaniak—a physicist by training and now director of magnetic resonance spectroscopy at the Smidt Heart Institute—in chronic obesity, the adipose tissue designed to store fat begins to malfunction, so fat spills into the liver, pancreas and skeletal muscle. In some people, the pancreas can compensate by secreting more insulin, the metabolism-regulating hormone. In others, it can't. It's in these unlucky individuals that the risk of Type 2 diabetes goes up. "We believe fatty pancreas is the culprit," says Dr. Szczepaniak. "It's unable to secrete enough insulin to compensate, and the person progresses to Type 2 diabetes."
In a study, Dr. Szczepaniak and her colleagues compared African-American, non-Latino Caucasian and Latino participants. The result: Latinos were the most likely to store fat in their pancreas. "We believe this accounts for the higher rates of Type 2 diabetes among that population," says Dr. Szczepaniak.
She hopes the revolution in diagnostics will lead to the most meaningful revolution of all—effective prevention that improves and lengthens the lives of countless individuals and reverses the epidemic rise in Type 2 diabetes.

About Vik1ng
I don't think google can just kick websites out of their search engine for no apparent reason. They would probably get sued and lose.
I doubt that the protests will really stop. Both the Pirate Party and the Green Party are against this as well as young members among other parties. So it's not very likely that they will just sign it in silence a few weeks later.
So that's why the Green Party now has 15% and has been in the federal parlament for nearly 30 years now and they just started on anti-nuclear and environmental politics?

Commercial media have faced product and price challenges in 2-sided markets for more than a century, but are encountering greater difficulties in getting it right as they try to effectively monetize multi-sided markets.
2-sided and multi-sided markets are ones in which more than one set of consumers must be addressed and there is an interaction between strategies and choices for each set of customers. Prices for one group of consumers affects their consumption quantity and this, in turn, affects the prices for and consumption by the other groups. Optimal revenues can only be achieved by dealing with all groups of consumers simultaneously.
Newspapers are a classic example of 2-sided platforms. The first product is the content sold to audiences and the second is access to audiences that is sold to advertisers. This has been the basis of the mass media business model since late 19th century and the strategy has been to keep circulation prices low to attract a mass audience and then to make the majority of revenue from advertiser purchases.
In this model, success in selling the newspaper product affects ability to sell advertising access because more readers makes a paper more attractive to advertisers; conversely, success in selling advertising affects ability to sell the newspaper to readers because it provides resources that improves content and make the paper more attractive.
Getting prices right in this model is crucial, but most media have traditionally been relatively unsophisticated in setting prices. Few have used demand-oriented pricing, based on what the market will bear, or target return pricing based on achieving a specific rate of return. Instead most have set prices based on what the closest competitors are doing or on industry average price. They were historically able to get away with it because elasticity and price resistance were relatively low because of the near monopolies of past in many markets.
Today, however, product and price choices are getting much more complex because of rising competition and because media are shifting from 2-sided to multi-sided platforms in which relationships among consumers are compounded. This complexity is evident in the difficulties newspapers and magazines are having figuring out effective ways to provide and sell content online.
The problem occurs because there are paying audiences and advertisers for the print edition; free audiences and paying advertisers for the online edition; and some joint audience and advertisers who use both the print and online offerings. If one alters the free price online to create a paying audience, it not only affects the willingness of online advertisers to pay, but affects the willingness of joint audiences and advertisers to pay and thus effects performance of the print sales as well.
Creating the correct combination of content available in print and online, getting the content prices right, generating audiences in both places that are right for advertisers, and properly prices advertising is no mean feat. The situation is made even more difficult as publishers add eReaders and mobile services to the mix.
Those who think they can easily monetize newspapers, magazines, or other information products online ignore the significant challenges posed by multi-sided platforms and need to carefully consider the impact that these factors have on product and price choices.

TL CatenaryTodor Latev
From Wikipedia:
In physics and geometry, a catenary is the curve that an idealized hanging chain or cable assumes under its own weight when supported only at its ends. The catenary curve has a U-like shape, superficially similar in appearance to a parabolic arch, but it is not a parabola. Mathematically, the catenary curve is the graph of the hyperbolic cosine function. Catenaries and related curves are used in architecture and engineering, in the design of bridges and arches, so that forces do not result in bending moments.
Please visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catenary for more information
This app will draw the catenary curve as a polyline in Autodesk® AutoCAD® by numerically solving the transcendental equation using a variation of the dampened Newton-Raphson root finding algorithm. Four different modes of defining the catenary are supported:
- Two points and length
- Three points
- Two points and sag
- One point and parameter a
Each method is implemented as a separate command. All modes/commands are fully interactive, and the user is able to dynamically preview the end result on screen. Upon completion of the command a quick report is generated with all input parameters used as well as the final mathematical equation of the particular catenary curve. The number of vertexes of the generated polyline is also adjustable within a 5-1000 points range.

Typical scenario: I want to get a snippet from a text file into my terminal (probably running a VIM).
Now I open the file using mousepad, select the snippet, close mousepad, switch to urxvt and hit Shift + Insert to paste the text. (As opposed to non-terminal applications, where the same does the "normal" paste, but let's keep that aside for now).
IIRC, this work-flow used to work perfectly, until a certain moment. Now, since the moment I close the mousepad window, contents of the clipboard is lost, i.e. reverted to that before. Of course I don't want to keep the window open, that only leads to cluttered desktop (= random loss my concentration).
Skip this: Is there any rationale for this? I'm tempted to think that this is some kind of security measure, but frankly, that idea seems so scary to me: I mean, it's supposed to be clipboard, right? Not a VCS nor a password manager, just a plain old simple clipboard. (What next, are we going to have separate cursors in applications? Or separate selections? Or five hands?)
How can I get my old normal clipboard behavior? And by the way, which part of the architecture (X/GTK/Xfce/mousepad) is responsible for this behavior?
After-thought: After reading the first two great answer plus the article linked, I realized that yes, behavior might have changed, but it's more likely that I have misunderstood the clipboards for years, and it's more about changes in my work-flow (i.e. heavy use of vim, ssh and urxvt and keyboard-oriented control) that caused recent increase in my stumbling. (I feel relieved that it's not another instance of terrible trend in FOSS when developers are arbitrarily "improving" fundamentals of desktop tools.)
So while I was expecting a "switch to turn it back" to behave
how it was how I understood it, namely retaining separate "Ctrl+X/C/V" and "MMB", I'll be looking into solutions involving The Grand Unification. Maybe I'll need to tune my work-flow, but at least I'll be understanding my tools.

Hartson Leads Team Associated/Reedy/LRP to 7 Victories At Off Road Shootout
For the 15th year in a row, Hot Rod Hobbies in Saugus, CA played host to the Off Road Shootout. As has become the custom, racers were greeted with the desert heat and triple digit temperatures throughout the event. However, given the track layout, surface and competition it didn't seem to damper the racing any. With entrants from across the Nation and World, many of the top 1:10 electric off-road racers challenged for the wins.
On day one of qualifying, everything seemed to be the status quo. The regular group of guys dominated the top of the standings. That was until the second day of qualifying and Team Associated/Reedy/LRP's Steven Hartson found his groove with his Factory Team B4.1 Worlds Edition. Hartson would battle with the some of the top racers in the world and hold off their charges in Q3 and Q4 to secure his first major overall top qualifying effort. Not to be left out of the mix, Ryan Maifield put his Factory Team B4.1 just behind Hartson in the 2nd grid spot for the triple A-mains in 2wd Modified. Maifield would also dominate 2wd Modified Short Course qualifying with his Factory Team SC10 and Reedy Sonic/LRP SXX V2 combination taking the overall top qualifying position in that class.
As the mains got underway Sunday morning, the major buzz around the pits was if Hartson could match his performance from the previous day. A good jump in A1 was all the Team Associated driver would need to gap the field. Driving with an ease and comfort few ever have, Hartson set a pace that only teammate Ryan Maifield could keep up with. At the end of A1, Hartson secured the victory by 4 seconds over Maifield. In A2, the Associated duo got another good jump on the field and Hartson again set a blistering pace that only Maifield could keep up with. This time, Maifield stayed a bit closer and kept the pressure on his young teammate only to come up 2 seconds short, thus earning Hartson his first major victory.
Even though most of the eyes were on the 2wd Modified mains, Maifield and Hartson weren't done contesting for wins. Maifield made it look easy in 2wd Short Course Modified with his Factory Team SC10/Reedy Sonic 7.5/LRP SXX V2 TC spec combination. He checked out from the field in both A1 and A2 to secure the title. In 4wd Modified, again Maifield was on point getting a hard fought victory in A1, a close second in A2 and a walk-away win in A3 for his second title of the weekend. In the Truck Modified class, Steven Hartson and his new found confidence improved each of the triple A-mains. Getting a 3rd in A1, a 2nd in A2 and the win in A3 he tied for the overall victory, however lost the tiebreaker by 0.1 of a second. Not to be left out of the victory celebration, Team Manager Brent Thielke found his way to the winner's circle in the 1:8 eBuggy class with his Factory Team RC8.2e/Reedy Sonic 2100 kV/LRP iX8 combination. Also taking victories with Team Associated vehicles were Kevin Motter in 2wd and Truck Stock and Tyler Sweeney in the Rookie class.
A special thanks goes out to the whole Hot Rod Hobbies crew for a great race, flowing track and great racing surface. Team Associated would also like to congratulate Steven Hartson on his biggest win to date and look for the team to contest the ROAR 1:10 Off Road and 1:8 eBuggy National Championships here in the next few weeks.

Beyblade BB-105 Starter Big Bang Pegasis F:D
by Pauline
Big Bang Pegasis is a very strong and good looking bey. It has 4 battle modes :Smash Attack, Upper Attack, Barrage and Omni-Directional Attack.These modes are accessible by moving the metal core and PC frame. The F:D is its 4D performance tip. This tip starts out as semi-flat tip, but when it gets weaker it changes to a rubber-hole flat and tries to knock the opponent out with intimidating/great force. This bey is a very strong bey and I would recommend it to everyone.

This is the second post on Barkskin in tier 11. To read general information about Barkskin and why it's so awesome, see my first post on Barkskin in BWD.
Here are some of the best places to use Barkskin in Bastion of Twilight and Baradin Hold. This applies whether you are resto or dps (I won't presume to tell bears when to use Barkskin).
Bastion of Twilight
Halfus Wyrmbreaker
The beginning of the fight is the most hectic part, so it's a good idea to use Barkskin straight off. It will help reduce damage from the proto-behemoth's abilities or any Shadow Novas that get cast. Continue to use Barkskin on cooldown until Halfus reaches 50%.
Once Halfus reaches 50%, use Barkskin before each Furious Roar, as everyone gets stunned and is unable to heal.
Valiona and Theralion
While fighting Valiona, use Barkskin when collapsing for Blackout. It can also be used if you get caught in Devouring Flames (but try not to).
While fighting Theralion, Barkskin should be used on cooldown. Between Meteorites, Fabulous Flames and Engulfing Magic, you're likely taking damage through most of the phase.
Twilight Ascendant Council
During phase 1, use Barkskin when Feludius starts casting Aegis of Flame.
In phase 2, use it before Thundershock or Quake. If you find yourself with the wrong buff (because the tornado and spawned right on top of each other, or you had to run away because you were the lightning rod), Barkskin can help you survive.
When you reach phase 3 the whole raid will start taking increasing amounts of damage, use Barkskin on cooldown.
In phase 1, there is only one source of unavoidable damage on the raid. When Cho'gall has Shadow's Orders up, the raid will be taking shadow damage on each of his melee strikes. Use Barkskin to mitigate the damage from this.
In phase 2, damage will begin to ramp up as your Corruption increases. Cho'gall will begin using Corruption of the Old God which will do damage to the whole raid every 2 seconds. Use Barkskin on cooldown throughout the phase.
Baradin Hold
Use Barkskin just before you get hit with Meteor Slash.
And now, a rant!
I read a comment about Barkskin the other day that really made me mad. The comment questioned how useful Barkskin really was for druids, and claimed that they rarely use it because they can survive without it.
My mind, it was boggled.
I know that some people don't use Barkskin because they forget. It never became part of their playstyle, and they just don't think of it. That is very unfortunate, but is an innocent mistake (though they should really work on it). To say "I rarely use Barkskin because I can survive without it" is awful. In my mind it's no better than saying: "I could run out of this fire on the ground immediately, but I can survive a few ticks" or "I could interrupt this spell, but it's not going to kill anyone."
When you're in a dungeon or raid with other people, every little bit counts. When faced with the option of taking 60,000 damage or using Barkskin and taking only 48,000 damage, the correct course of action should be extremely obvious.
Happy Barkskining!

Michael Pollan, the foodie journalist and author of "In Defense of Food," coined a new anthem for locavores with his pithy phrase "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants."
Michael, forgive my foolish ways. I could not resist the temptation to make this recipe that includes no plant fiber and try it out on unsuspecting friends.
Mock Apple Pie first appeared in 1934 on the cracker's package. It's hard to imagine why anyone would want to substitute crisp apples for buttery crackers. Were they a stand-in for hard-to-come by apples during the Great Depression? Some references suggest that Mock Apple Pie was invented by pioneers on the move who didn't have space or access to fresh apples out on the trail.
This brings to mind a scene from "The Long Winter" by Laura Ingalls Wilder where Ma presents the family with a pie when an early frost forces a harvest before all the produce is ripe. "Apples!" Pa exclaims after he digs in. "Caroline, where did you get apples!" There were no apples in that apple pie, either. Ma had used green pumpkins. Fooled ya!
In any case, I decided to test the recipe. This was a last minute decision. It was 4:00 p.m. and I was heading to a potluck that began at 6:30 p.m.
I made good time on my trip home from work in order to make a quick stop at the neighborhood grocery store to get the essentials (read: Ritz Crackers).
By 5:30 p.m. I am "assembling" the pie, which includes simmering a ghastly amount of sugar (2 cups), and shaving a lemon. The sugar mixture has to cool before you pour it over the crackers and running short on time I stuck it in the freezer with a large metal spoon in it to help draw out the heat.
At 6:15 p.m. in a bit of a hurry and muddled by disbelief, I crumble a tube of Ritz Crackers into a premade pastry shell and pour the 2 cups of somewhat-cool liquid over it. It is incredibly soupy. Undeterred I roll out the second pie shell and haphazardly cover the "pie." Liquid oozes out. Hm. Can this be right??
I pull out a large roasting pan to port my uncooked pie and amble down to the street, now late. Even though I've covered the pie in tinfoil, sugar-water is escaping and sloshing all over the sides of the pan. As I make the four-block trek I politely steer my curious burden around groups of neighbors along the sidewalk.
Now, this potluck has a very high purpose. I regularly break bread with this group of women who have committed to making a monthly donation to four nonprofits working to alleviate global poverty. We do this despite the fact that none of us are wealthy and several are in job transitions. (Want to know more? Read about us in this Monitor article "A spiritual approach to money", Feb. 1, 2009.) Guilt settled in as I sloshed my way up the steps to the dinner. After all, this group believes in fair trade, buying produce in season, and shopping locally. One friend is actually a farmer, another grows food for inner city school kids.
And here I come with fake pie.
As the hostess settles the pie into the preheated oven, I grin sheepishly and shrug. "It's surprise pie!," I say, and offer no more information. Soon a delicious cinnamon aroma drifts from the kitchen and I'm already getting appreciative remarks from my friends who are anticipating dessert. Ahem. (Did I mention feeling guilty?)
As we assemble around the coffee table, two pies are set out. Mine, and a homemade strawberry rhubarb pie. Vanilla ice cream, too, of course.
Kim, the one who works on farm to school projects, took a brave, large piece. I encouraged her to guess the "secret" ingredient.
"I taste lemon!" she declared. Anything else? "Potato?" Nope.
"How much butter is in here?" Neeka asks. Um, depends on how you define that.
Now deeply ashamed, I reveal the secret crackers. There is a pause, mid-chew. But I am quickly reassured that it actually tastes quite good! The lemon sings, the salt tantalizes, the butter soothes, and the cinnamon tricks. All this magic prompts a discussion about how easily we are fooled by food and by the way, did anyone realize that McDonald's apple pies are made with potato? (Snopes debunks this claim, however.)
In any case, it was a sweet ending to our potluck. And Kim graciously reassured me, "Ritz Crackers are never out of season."
Touché, Michael Pollan.
Mock Apple Pie
1-3/4 cups water
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
Zest from 1 lemon
2 pastry pie shells
1-3/4 cups Ritz Crackers, coarsely broken
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Preheat the oven to 425 F degrees.
In a saucepan, heat water, sugar, and cream of tartar to a boil and simmer for 15 minutes. Add lemon juice and zest; let cool.
Line pie plate with pastry. Place broken crackers in crust. Pour cooled syrup over crackers. Dot with butter; sprinkle with cinnamon.
Roll out top crust; place over pie, crimp, and make fork holes for steam. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes. Serve with vanilla ice cream.

With Nissan pushing full steam into electric cars, and General Motors making a big splash with its plug-in hybrid, Hiroko Tabuchi at the New York Times wonders, what happened to Toyota? Where is its electric car?
Toyota's execs tell Tabuchi "The time is not here," for electric cars.
They're right, the time is not here, not now. In three years though? It looks more and more likely that it will be.
So why isn't Toyota plowing all its PR muscle resources into electric cars? Tabuchi says:
- Batteries aren't ready.
- Toyota doesn't want to churn out some crap electric that tarnishes the brand.
- Electric cars are going to be expensive, with low margins.
- Have you noticed the $4.4 billion loss from last year? Maybe not the best time to burn a billion dollars on an electric project.
- Is the mass market ready for an electric car? Probably not.
- Hydrogen! Toyota is developing a better alternative car technology.
It looks like Toyota is betting against the electric revolution. This is a mistake because it means it's betting against the United States ( and German) government. Billions of dollars are flowing to electric cars for battery research, and infrastructure, while funding for hydrogen--Toyota's preferred clean car technology--has been cut off.
It's not the end of the world, though. Toyota is developing a plug-in hybrid Prius (although it's going to be really weak compared to Nissan or Chevy). If the electric revolution really swings into gear, then Toyota will only be one step behind the leaders.

How Do Moths and Butterflies Survive a New York City Winter?
by AMNH on
What happens to butterflies and moths during winter in New York? This post, adapted from A Seasonal Guide to New York City's Invertebrates, written by Elizabeth A. Johnson, explains a bit about how the four-stage life cycle of these insects helps them survive the cold. Published by the Museum's Center for Biodiversity and Conservation, the book can easily be downloaded, along with a series of other helpful booklets about nature.
They may seem as delicate as gossamer, but moths and butterflies routinely survive the cold, harsh weather of New York winters. How do they do it? After all, they are small, without any insulating fur or feathers, and cannot generate their own body heat as mammals and birds do.
Some adult invertebrates like these overwinter in protected shelters. One way they withstand freezing temperatures is by secreting chemicals that act as antifreeze to prevent the formation of ice crystals in their bodies. The comma and mourning cloak butterflies are two such insects. (Visit The Butterfly Conservatory, now on view, to see hundreds of live, tropical butterflies from around the world.)
On milder winter days, with temperatures in the 40s°, these butterflies may even emerge to bask, their dark scales absorbing the heat of the sun.
Winter moths such as straight-toothed sallow, Morrison's sallow, and Grote's pinion may also be seen on mild, humid winter nights, insulated by dense hairs on their bodies.
Some adult invertebrates simply die when the cold weather arrives, leaving their offspring to survive in a protected dormant stage as eggs, larvae, or pupae. Woolly bears (caterpillars of the Isabella tiger moth) find protection under thick layers of leaf litter.
Below is an Isabella tiger moth as an adult.
And polyphemus moth pupae are sheltered in their cocoons during the winter.
Here's a polyphemus moth in warmer weather, as an adult.

I would like to have your opinion on these two photos below. The first one was taken on a stone next to an area where a prehistoric tomb was destroyed some decades ago. It seems to have some drawings, but I would like to have your opinion.
The second picture show what it seems to be a water channel of some kind. Strange enough is that in the area there is no longer any farming activity, at least for now. I don't know if the structure is roman, but in the nearby a roman bridge and a roman oven have been found, what do you think?

We are all singing. We call it speech, but we're singing to each other, and I thought, as soon as you put spoken word onto music, you start to hear it like singing anyway. You start to develop musical value and musical weight, and you start to notice how this word falls on that beat, and so on and so on. So in a way I think I was trying to draw more attention to the fact that everybody is a singer—everybody who uses their voice is kind of singing. And that was a big liberation for me, to realize that.I know readers of this blog who sing and speak (and some who coach both speakers and singers), and I've helped my speaking trainees think about pacing and tempo and vocal quality in the same way they might if they were singing--although that works best if the trainee is already a musician, in my experience. Back when I was looking for famous speeches by women in the movies, and coming up short, a good friend of mine said her thought was that most speeches by women in film were in the form of songs in musicals--otherwise, they did little in the way of giving public speeches.
What do you think? Have you ever thought of singing as speaking--or speaking as something akin to singing? Which is easier for you? How does singing help your speaking, or vice versa? Let us know if you're a singer or musician in your reactions and comments.

Channel Partner Contracts: Things to Consider
I love a catchy title! No. Seriously. I really do.
But certain things in business are worth reading, even if you know they're not very exciting, and you just spread a fresh coat of paint and were hoping to sit back and watch it dry. Channel partner contracts are especially likely to be so excitement-challenged, but don't let that unfortunate tidbit lull you into a false sense of security. After all, whether we're talking about battlefields or legal contracts, landmines are never intended to be all that noticeable.
For the most part, the objective is to figure out whether there's a fair balance between what you're paying and what you're getting. And while that might sound brutally obvious, keep in mind that contracts for services can sometimes be more than a little vague. So somewhere right now, a company like yours is paying for services they'll never really need. Somewhere else there's a guy who thinks he's got a great deal, but will get a rude awakening when he learns what services he's not getting; or how long he will wait to receive them. I guess he didn't read the fine print.
The contract will likely fit into one of four buckets. It could be a specified project for a set fee. It could be service on an hourly basis, as used. It could be on an ongoing retainer. Or it might simply put a master agreement in place that governs the more specific engagements that will be determined later. Each has their own place and level of usefulness relative to the circumstances. So the best option for your company will depend on the task at hand, your resource level, and the degree to which temporary service interruptions impact your ability to keep the doors open.
Beyond that, ask yourself if you can determine what's really covered in this contract. Does it accurately describe what services or products they are providing? Are you working exclusively with the channel partner, or do you have to go to the manufacturer for certain issues? If so, what are they?
How soon will they promise to respond when something goes wrong? "Right now" will always be the feel-good answer of the day, but "right now" is also the most expensive answer, so you'll have to balance speed with your budget and needs. In actuality, of course, response times are measured in hours, if they're covered at all. Throw in the term, "service-level agreement" during this part of the discussion so they'll know you're not a rookie.
And who's doing the work, here? Are they doing it themselves? If not, who is the subcontractor, and what are their qualifications?
In what ways do they limit their liability, and do you think those terms are fair?
Is there any kind of exclusivity, expressed or implied? How will they keep you apprised of what changes are made to your systems. While that might seem like more information than you need, it'll come in awfully handy if you ever want to move to a different channel partner.
Running a small business usually requires that we do a lot of things in a lot of different areas. So it might be tempting to try to cut corners, here or there. But analyzing the partner contract is not a corner we can safely cut.

Leicester Mercury
Surprise celebrities added their applause to a rapturous standing ovation for the world premiere of Finding Neverland.
Hundreds of people packed out Curve to see the opening night of Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein's production.
The show premiered on Saturday night and included two unexpected star guests - U2 frontman Bono and guitarist The Edge - who had been invited by Mr Weinstein.
Mr Weinstein said:"We were so honoured that Bono and Edge came to see our first preview of Finding Neverland in Leicester. There was real excitement amongst the cast to meet them backstage after the show. I came to see Bono's show Spiderman in New York during previews, and he was a really good friend to come and see my first show here in Leicester."
Speaking to the cast on stage after the show, Bono said: "Can I just say how nauseating it is to see it go so well. That was amazing."
The musical, about Peter Pan author JM Barrie, received whistles and cheers as the curtain fell and the Irish superstars got to their feet with the rest of the audience to give the cast a standing ovation.
Joss Paine, 18, from Thurnby, had to take a second after finding himself in the same row as Bono.
He said: "It was a bit surreal. I spotted him quite early on and had to look twice."
The show is inspired by the 2004 film Finding Neverland, based on the Scottish writer JM Barrie.
It tells the story of his platonic relationship with Sylvia Llewelyn Davies and friendship with her four young sons, who inspire the magical world of Peter Pan.
Maggie Friswell, 63, from Burbage, said: "It was absolutely fantastic. The singing was superb - in fact, everything was fantastic.
"I've been to London, to the West End to see shows, but this was just amazing - the technical bits were really impressive."
Stephen Smith, 61, from Stoke Golding, near Hinckley, said: "Brilliant. It was really good.
"For the show to premiere here in Leicester really says something about the city and the theatre."
Pam Hillyard, 74, from Thurmaston, was sat in front of the show's producer Harvey Weinstein but didn't know until her daughter told her.
She said: "I had no idea who he was, but I thought the whole show was fantastic.
"It really captured the essence of the story and the time in which it was set.
"The set and music was amazing."
The musical attracted audience members from all over the world.
American Bill Rummer had travelled from London to see the opening night of the show.
The 40-year-old said: "I thought it was beautiful and moving, it was fantastic.
"I'm originally from Los Angeles and I'm in London at the minute, but I had to come up here when I heard it was a Harvey Weinstein premiere."
Bill was not the only overseas admirer of the production.
Australian Craig Rohlf, 39, had also made his way up from London for the show.
He said: "It's my first time here and I am really impressed.
"It's not every day you see a world premiere of a big show like this."
British stage and screen actor Julian Ovenden plays JM Barrie, while West End actress Rosalie Craig takes the role of Sylvia.
The show, directed and choreographed by Olivier Award-winner Rob Ashford, runs until October 13.

Justice Department 'Complies' With FOIA Request For GPS Tracking Memos; Hands ACLU 111 Fully Redacted Pages
from the the-answer-is-none;-none-more-black deptJust recently, we learned that the EFF had been handed what appeared to be several pages of severe formatting errors and faulty Morse code in response to its FOIA request for the secret interpretation of the FISA spying law. There were also the "sobering findings" faux-released by the NSA, which left in only enough unredacted wording to open speculation on these "sobering findings," as well as to publicly lament the surely misguided public debate on the super-secret agency's actions. Now, the news comes to us that the FBI has handed the ACLU a stack of papers that would make any toner supplier very happy.
The ACLU filed a FOIA request last July in hopes of receiving some insight into the FBI's tracking of US citizens via GPS devices. Two months later, it filed a lawsuit against the FBI, forcing the issue. At long last, the FBI has responded... with 111 pages of black ink.
Two key memos outlining the Justice Department's views about when Americans can be surreptitiously tracked with GPS technology are being kept secret by the department despite a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit filed by the ACLU to force their release. The FBI's general counsel discussed the existence of the two memos publicly last year, yet the Justice Department is refusing to release them without huge redactions.
The word "see" is obviously some sort of joke because there's absolutely nothing to "see" here, unless you consider To, From and Subject fields to be the "smoking gun." Oh, and this one paragraph that leads into 56 straight pages of black ink.
In United States v. Jones, 132 S. Ct. 945 (2012), the Supreme Court affirmed the suppression of location data generated by a GPS tracking device surreptitiously affixed to a car without court authorization and monitored continuously over a 28-day period.Yep, that's the power of the FOIA. All the black ink (or blank pages) you could possibly want, delivered months after they're requested. The redactions on these two documents obviously goes far beyond simply protecting sensitive information that might jeopardize ongoing investigations. This is nothing more than the DOJ covering up unconstitutional practices.
The Justice Department's unfortunate decision leaves Americans with no clear understanding of when we will be subjected to tracking — possibly for months at a time — or whether the government will first get a warrant. This is yet another example of secret surveillance policies — like the Justice Department's secret opinions about the Patriot Act's Section 215 — that simply should not exist in a democratic society.The ACLU is asking the court to order the DOJ to release these memos in full. The Fourth Amendment's reasonable expectation of privacy is undermined by these secret memos, which limit knowledge of law enforcement tracking efforts solely to the executive branch.
The implications of these withheld documents go even further than discussing GPS tracking. FBI General Counsel Andrew Weissman's explanation of the second memo ("Guidance Regarding the Application of United States v. Jones to Additional Investigative Techniques") leaves the door open for tracking via other technology.
[The] second memoranda [sic] is going to be about guidance about what this means for other types of techniques, beyond GPS, because there's no reason to think that this is going to just end with GPS and some of that is going to be very much a judgment call.It's already common knowledge that law enforcement agencies are using cell phone tracking. As the ACLU points out, wireless carriers already receive 1.5 million requests for data every year, most of which is used for location tracking. Additional technology, such as drones or license plate readers, make endless surveillance a logistic reality, and all without a warrant.
A fully-redacted document doesn't seem to indicate that the FBI is operating within the constraints of United States v. Jones. It signals the very opposite and provides us with another example of how government agencies, when faced with constitutional limitations, are more than happy to simply "interpret" their way around them -- and keep these interpretations out of public view, perhaps indefinitely. It's extremely hypocritical for the FBI and DOJ to sit in a position of law enforcement when they clearly believe abiding by the law is optional.

BOSTON, Mass. – Led by Bo Prozinski's six goals and a 9-0 run over a 30 minute span the visiting Corsairs of UMass Dartmouth defeated lacrosse by the final of 11-5 Saturday afternoon at Clark Athletic Center Field in the final regular season Little East Conference game for both teams.
With Saturday's loss the Beacons close out the 2014 regular season with an 8-9 record, 2-5 in the Little East. The Corsairs, who will be the third-seed in the conference tournament, closed the year with a record of 12-4, 5-2 in the conference.
The Beacons, who are the sixth seed in this year's tournament, will travel to UMass Dartmouth on Tuesday for the first-round of the conference tournament. A start time has yet to be determined.
Prozinski's day officially got started when he scored his first goal with 15 seconds left in the first quarter to make it 3-2 in favor of the Beacons. He would then fire-off four goals, three of which came in succession, in the third to push the Corsairs lead to 10-3. His final goal of the afternoon came in the fourth at the 3:39 mark to secure the victory for UMass Dartmouth.
Looking for their third straight win over the Corsairs, the Beacons were hoping to give their six senior members a game to remember as they were honored prior to the start of the contest. This year's senior class consisted of Joe Miller (Hull, Mass.), Gary Ley (Tuckerton, N.J.), Brian Meehan (Marshfield, Mass.), Andrew Guy (Northbridge, Mass.), Ed McDonald (Waltham, Mass.), and Tommy Petitti (Quincy, Mass.).
Noah Ellis (Hingham, Mass.) struck first for UMass Boston on an unassisted goal at the 6:39 mark. Jordan MacPherson tied it at 1-1 just a few seconds later on his first of three goals. From there Donny Delpha (Walpole, Mass.) and Ellis pushed the Beacons lead to two on their 23rd and 21st goals of the year respectively. However Prozinski's goal with just seconds left in the first would spark the Corsairs attack.
MacPherson netted the lone goal in the second quarter as the two teams went into the halftime break tied at 3-3.
After the intermission, the Corsairs unloaded for seven goals in the third quarter with MacPherson, Riley Baxter, and Prozinski all finding the back of the cage. Petitti ended the scoring drought for the Beacons at the 1:52 mark of the third on his 24th goal of the season to make 10-3 Corsairs.
In the fourth, Prozinski scored the only goal for UMD, while John Powers (Marshfield, Mass.) recorded the Beacons last goal of the 2014 regular season with less two minutes to play in the contest.
Between the pipes Nick Thayer earned his 12th win of the year after making just four saves in the contest. Craig Frehill (Norwell, Mass.) had a very busy afternoon on the other side of the field as the Corsairs attacked peppered the sophomore all afternoon. UMD outshot the Beacons 41-20, and forced Frehill to come-up 15 saves. Saturday's game marked the fourth time this season that Frehill had to make 15 or more stops.
The Beacons return to action on Tuesday when they travel to UMass Dartmouth for the first round of the Little East Conference tournament. Start time is to be determined.

Marques Mosley is trying to become a major contributor to the Colorado defense once again and an injury to a teammate might be have helped his cause.
Mosley is one of a handful of safeties competing for playing time. It is a competition that suddenly became more interesting last week when senior Jered Bell suffered a season-ending torn ligament in his knee.
"He was one of the starters or one of the main guys and him going down just makes everyone else have to compete more," Mosley said.
Bell was expected to be the starter at free safety with Tedric Thompson likely to start at strong safety. But now players like Mosley, senior Terrel Smith, junior Richard Yates and redshirt freshman Ryan Moeller find themselves fighting for a starting job.
Bell's injury might have been most significant to Mosley of all the Buffs because like Bell, he can play both safety and cornerback. He provides versatility to a coaching staff that values it.
"My first year, a lot of guys went down so I was in position where I kind of had to play a lot," Mosley said. "Now I have a lot of older guys in front of me and now I have to make plays."
Former CU coach Jon Embree once predicted Mosley would be a "fantastic player." That prediction came during Mosley's true freshman season when he played in all 12 games and 524 snaps on defense. He finished the season as the team's sixth leading tackler and seemed to be in position for a bright future.
Then CU made a coaching change and Mike MacIntyre changed the schemes and culture and Mosley fell behind. He played in 11 games as a sophomore but was only on the field for 127 plays. He finished with 16 total tackles compared with 56 the year before.
Now entering his junior season, Mosley is hoping to get back to a larger role.
One area Mosley likely won't be making an impact is as a return man. In 2012, Mosley was the Buffs' leading kickoff returner averaging 26.1 yards on 21 returns. He also ran back a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown in the season finale against Utah.
Mosley said he is disappointed not to be competing for the kickoff return job this season.
"I like having the ball in my hands but they don't see me as that guy," Mosley said.
Pencil depth chart
MacIntyre said he is continuing to work with a pencil depth chart and doesn't plan to release the pecking order at most positions until just before the season opener Aug. 29 against Colorado State. He has already named Sefo Liufau his starting quarterback.
"It keeps them competing for sure," MacIntyre said.
Bell expected back
MacIntyre said Bell told him he would like to appeal to the NCAA for a sixth season of eligibility after suffering the second torn ACL injury of his career last week in practice.
MacIntyre said over the weekend that he believes the NCAA generally grants a sixth season to student-athletes who have lost two entire seasons to injuries.
Staying put
MacIntyre said sophomore Travis Talianko won't be moved from linebacker back to safety in the wake of the injury to Bell because Talianko has gotten too big for safety. Talianko, who is listed at 6-foot-1, 210 pounds on the CU roster, was originally recruited to San Jose State by MacIntyre and played one season there as a safety. He transferred to CU from a junior college this summer.
A group of approximately 250 foreign students visited practice on Monday and learned the fight song with some help from CU staffers. … MacIntyre said the Buffs had a bounce in their step Monday after having Sunday off and with no more two-a-day practices to dread.

A company should not take the same strategy taken by the competitor in business. Sun Tzu wrote "The Arts of War" about 500 B.C. in China and insisted the importance of the strategy to defeat the weak while avoiding a battle against the strong. In most cases, however, a company plays safe and follows its bigger competitor using the same strategy. It intentionally or unintentionally ignores the factors that make the strategy of the competitor successful and presumes that the strategy taken by the competitor will also be effective to it without careful consideration. As a result, it unknowingly attempts to attack on the strength of the competitor.
It is important to know that specific products of each company make its strategy work well. Not only visible products, such as equipment and apparatus, but also invisible products, such as technological strength, sales forces, developmental power, and service capability, vary with the company. In the subprime lending disaster, you can say that every company involved took the same strategy seeking big profits and fell into an abyss together. It is an honor for a company to have its strategy imitated by another company, but the competitor's strategy is the worse strategy for a company that imitates it. Any strategy does not work as soon as it is known to your competitor.
Japan provoked a reckless war against the U.S. without notice in 1941, and it was knocked into smithereens in 1945. Putting aside the fact that Japan had no chance of winning in terms of military strength, it is important to know that the U.S. mostly knew Japanese strategies beforehand because they were too much faithful to the textbook. During the age of provincial wars in Japan (1467-1615), warlords worked out their own strategies and fought against their enemies with the strategy full of originality. The greatest warlord is Nobunaga Oda (1534-1582), and both Hideyoshi Toyotomi (1536-1598) and Ieyasu Tokugawa (1542-1616) are his students. It is striking to know that none of the three warlords shared the same strategy.
During World War II, headquarters of the Imperial Japanese Army was staffed only with the bright graduates from the military academy. They all were too faithful to the textbook to construct a strategy full of originality. In addition, they were too proud and gentlemanly. A high-raking official in the headquarters reportedly told "It is not gentlemanly to sneak a look at strategies that the U.S. keeps in strict confidence."
