The only vehicles allowed to drive during Flipside are registered and inspected art cars/mutant vehicles, vehicles for those with disabilities, and official-use vehicles. Guidelines for registering an Art Car/Mutant Vehicle may be found on this page.
Mutant Vehicle or Art Car – A vehicle which has been decorated in some artistic fashion. (Please, note that plain golf carts are not a form of artistic expression.)
Vehicles for those with disabilities – wheel chairs or carts which are used for transporting someone with a disability.
Official-use vehicles – include but are not limited to Flipside DMV licensed staff vehicles and gators, law enforcement, and emergency medical/fire response vehicles.
All other vehicles that do not fall into one of these categories will not be allowed to drive around during the event.
Important: Burning Flipside has a sound policy in effect for all mobile or non-mobile sound systems. If you are bringing a sound system, please, review the sound policy found and register your sound system before the event.
Licensing Criteria
To be eligible for a Burning Flipside Department of Mutant Vehicles Official License one must:
- Think about and tell us why you want to bring a mode of transportation to Burning Flipside.
Why do you want wheels? Or spider legs? Or a hovercraft? If it is just to serve as a personal means to move you and your gang from point A to point B not on a bicycle, please, think again about your need to have a convenient mode of transportation at the event. The only vehicles to receive licenses will be those vehicles that are works of art or vehicles with a high participatory factor for Flipizens. Remember, Flipside is not too big to walk around. And, that the question to ask oneself when thinking of bringing some mode of transportation other than a bike is, "How well will this contribute to the creative and artistic and/or highly particpatory environment of Burning Flipside?"
Modes of Transportation NOT eligible for DMV licensing–Undecorated Plain O' Golf Cart–a non-official golf cart or gator that is not decorated, does not make a contribution to the event in any other way than as a personal means of transportation for the same few people, and/or is not being used as prop in a performance art show.
NOTE: As per the landowner of Apache Pass, 4 wheel All Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) will not be allowed on the property. This applies to mutant vehicles, vehicles for those with disabilities and official vehicles.
Comply with all Department of Mutant Vehicles registration requirements, safety guidelines, deadlines, and commandments.
Pre-event registration is highly encouraged. Avoid the long wait and lines by registering before the event. Read, understand and abide by all info on this page. You will be asked to explain you reasons for bringing a mutant vehicle, abide by all safety guidelines/protocols, and include a photo or sketch of your vehicle.
Include safety designs in your consideration of operating a mutant vehicle.
Think about how the vehicle can operate safely given its design, passenger load, and DMV Commandments and operating procedures. Every vehicle owner will have to pass a safety inspection and a safety review on-site before receiving a license. All vehicles licensed for night use will be REQUIRED to have red gels on the headlights. This will keep you from blinding your fellow walking Flipizens.
Honor Yourself, Your Fellow Flipizens, and Make a Contribution to the Event by Keeping Your Commitments.
- Don't drive around in a plain ol' golf cart or van.
- Obey the 5 mph speed limit.
- Obey the DMV Commandments (listed below).
- Give Pedestrians and bikes the right of way.
- Don't drive or let anyone else drive chemically impaired.
- Don't steal a golf cart, gator, art carp, etc.
If you violate these community guidelines, you'll lose your mutant vehicle license at a minimum; your vehicle could be impounded, you could be fined by law enforcement and/or ejected from the event and or multiple/all events going forward. Owners that cannot follow our simple guidelines and requests do run the risk of not being licensed for future events. Always remember that tire pressure is a privilege, not a right.
Fulfill your intent, the intent of the community, and the intent of the universe–create a vehicle or mode of transportation that adds to, contributes more to, or improves upon the creative environment, container, and energy the event fosters amongst us.
Create a visually stimulating, mind-boggling beautiful, and/or highly participatory vehicle. Your vehicle should inspire WOWs, WHOAs, and WHATs. If this does not happen when one looks at your vehicle then you should not bring your golf cart, truck, etc. to the event.
Art Car/Mutant Vehicle registration
Does the idea of a golf cart sized carp lit up like a X-mas tree really turn you on? Are you always the first one in the hot tub before it takes off from camp headed to the ass-less chaps happy hour? Is dancing like a dervish decked out in disco friendly duds around a decibel dealing ATUPAV (All-Terrain-Uber-Party Assault Vehicle) get you off? Even if you didn't answer "Hell, yeah!" to anyone of these questions, you'll still find Flipside's flotilla of art cars, mutant vehicles, and helicopters holding a special place in your heart once your dogs start barkin' or you really got lost looking for GET LOST.
As the only non-essential vehicles allowed to cruise the grassy playa, all mutant vehicles owners will need to:
- register before OR on arrival to the event,
- undergo an on-site inspection, and
- submit to one-on-one on-site safety interrogation with a DMV Rep before receiving their DMV tags imparting the license to drive during the event.
- Keep in mind that just because you built and brought it, you will not automatically get a license. Pre-register to avoid confusion and delays at the gate.
Art car/mutant vehicle registration
The 4 easy steps to register an official art car/mutant vehicle are:
- Submit DMV application
- Submit to DMV on-site inspection
- Submit to DMV on-site Safety Review and sign off on DMV Safety Requirements
- Receive and Display DMV License (Sticker/Badge Laminate)
How & when to register your art car/mutant vehicle
Pre-event Registration
In the interest of a complete and overwhelming takeover by technology of the human race, participants bringing an art car or mutant vehicle to Burning Flipside may pre-register by
- Reading this entire page first, including Safety Guidelines and Commandments
- Email or send a link containg photos or sketches of your vehicle to: firstname.lastname@example.com
- Wait patiently for the DMV response and confirmation of receipt of your application
- Wait patiently for further instructions on the necessary on-site inspection, safety review/sign off, and receipt of DMV license at the event
For those who can't sit still, feel free to email questions/concerns/bribes to the DMV lead.
(NOTE: Receipt of DMV Application does not equate to a DMV license without on-site inspection and safety signoff)
Event Registration
For any participant in the throes of "X" days 'til Flipside Syndrome and are too busy with 1000 + other projects, participants bringing an art car or mutant vehicle to Burning Flipside may register at the event by:
- Register on the day of arrival at the event by having the PARKING crew radio for the DMV
- After radioing for the DMV to arrange a meet up, immediately meet the DMV representative at an arranged location at the event
- Fill out an application with the DMV
- Pass an on-site inspection with the DMV
- Submit to a safety review and sign off with the DMV
- Receive and proudly display one's new DMV license at all times
Daytime vs. nighttime
In order to receive a nighttime permit, your vehicle must be extremely well lit up—but this does not mean blinding headlights. This is more for people to see you coming and going from any angle rather than you seeing what is in front of you. To get a permit, you must come by the DMV at night, or set up a time for a DMV staff member to visit your camp at night so we can see how luminous you are. Strive to be the vehicle with the most LEDs. All vehicles licensed for night use will be REQUIRED to have red gels on your headlights. This will keep you from blinding your fellow walking Flipizens.
IMPORTANT: Registration and Inspection hours are 9am to 12am on Thursday, 9 am – 12 am Friday and 9am – 3pm Saturday. If you arrive outside of those hours and want to register an art car please find a volunteer with a radio to contact the DMV team.
Event safety review/sign off
In the interest of ensuring the best possible event for all involved in Burning Flipside by not having any vehicle related accidents or injuries, S-A-F-E-T-Y here at DMV is always considered a priori for all involved. With this mantra in mind, any and all vehicles seeking DMV licensing must have its sponsor/driver(s) review and sign off on an on-site safety form.
Below are sample questions that will be asked during your on-site review. Do not copy these and email the DMV the answers. You must answer them at the event and sign off on all of them. Review the questions, make any modifications you think are necessary to your vehicle and be prepared to submit to the safety review.
For those in doubt about what SAFETY means at Flipside's DMV, here is a glimpse at what you should be thinking about discussing during the DMV on-site safety sign off:
- Please, explain the safety considerations you have incorporated into your vehicle.
- How will passengers get on and off the vehicle? Most vehicular deaths at Burning Man come from people getting between vehicles and trailers they are pulling.
- If you plan on driving your vehicle at night, is there safe and adequate lighting on your vehicle? You must be extremely well lit and visible in order to get a night license
- What specific safety considerations have been made for any Flame effects? The roads at this event will pass under a working organic pecan grove. No damage to these trees will be tolerated.
- What specific safety considerations have been made for Sound effects? You must register your sound system.
- What considerations will be made to prevent unauthorized use of your mutant vehicle?
- Will you ensure that you and any vehicle driver will:
- Drive at a speed of 5 MPH or less to prevent dust and/or hazardous situations
- Give the right-of-way to pedestrians, bicycles, official and emergency vehicles
- Follow the reasonable and applicable vehicle laws for road safety
- Stop immediately upon being hailed by Flipside Staff member, Pyropolis Ranger, or Law Enforcement
- Not drive while intoxicated or drive under the Influence of drugs or alcohol
- Not drive in pedestrian walkways, pedestrian designated areas, or in the designated effigy area
- Stop in the event of an emergency, not flee the scene of an accident, and assist anyone in need of help
- Abide by any additional guidelines forthcoming from the AAR, LLC and the Burning Flipside staff
- Create a clear field of vision for the mutant vehicle operator at all time
- Use ground guides/walkers if the vehicle is large, has a limited field of vision, and/or is dangerous
- Clearly display the Mutant Vehicle License Sticker and/or Laminate Badge
- Abide and follow the Burning Flipside Sound Policy
- Ensure any and all Flame Effects are operated with safety in mind at all times
- Carry a fire extinguisher at all times
- In the event of heavy rain at the event, will you park your vehicle and not drive at all if instructed by any Flipside staff member or ranger to prevent damage to the road infrastructure?
- Are you aware that as the owner of a mutant vehicle, you are responsible for the safety and conduct of your vehicle even if you are not on board; and that you are liable for any damage it may cause regardless of who is driving?
- If you (or anyone operating a licensed vehicle) do not adhere to the above points at any time, do you fully understand that:
- Your tires may be deflated,
- Your license may be revoked,
- Your vehicle may be impounded,
- You may be ejected from the event and future events?
DMV commandments—how to get off (&) on art cars

THOU SHALL—dance around, wave your arms, and ask politely to get on a passing mutant vehicle:

- If the mutant vehicle does not stop for whatever reason, do not attempt to run down, jump on, hog-tie, and/or flip-off the vehicle or its driver(s) (Remember: when your dogs are barkin' on day three and it's a seemingly long haul back to camp, you'll wish you'd been nice : )

- THOU SHALL—have a good time

- THOU SHALL—help look out for the safety of their fellow freaks, aliens, and even passer-bys at all times

In order to test the validity of the theoretical model discussed in Part 1, an experimental technique, employing optical interferometry, has been developed to measure lubricant film thickness during axisymmetric stretch forming. Specially fabricated, transparent punches are used for both double and multiple beam interference studies. The choice of workpiece material, lubricant, and forming speed ensures that the punch/sheet conjunction will be hydrodynamically lubricated during most of the process. Interference patterns, due to the variable film of lubricant separating the punch and sheet surfaces, are formed as the sheet wraps around the punch. These patterns provide a contour map of the lubricant film thickness along the punch/sheet conjunction. The measured film thickness, as taken from an interpretation of the patterns, is compared with the theoretical predictions of Part 1.

Promoting, or marketing, is a big topic that's been coming out at the two science fiction conventions I've attended this year (Marscon and Ravencon). In just about every other field, marketing's a science. The advertiser knows that a camper against a pristine campground will get people to buy the product because they're looking for that experience (I'm currently reading a magazine called Trailer Life. That was a comment in a letter to the editor from one of the readers).
But books?
If publishers could figure out how to market books and turn them into best sellers, they would. Books are very subjective. Plenty of bad books — Twilight comes to mind — hit the best seller lists, while great books don't even sell all of their first run.
What we do know is that the standard marketing techniques don't work. I get a lot of authors on Twitter, and a day doesn't go by without a dozen or more Tweeting "Buy my book!" Usually over and over. Writers have sent me direct messages asking me to help promote their book, and all I can think is that I can't even figure out how to blog properly to draw people in. Exactly what am I supposed to do that this writer isn't doing?
It's a crazy environment with people acting is they were bumper cars, all bumping into each other and backing into each other, and no one really knowing where they are going.
What's been your experience with trying to figure out how to promote a book? What have you tried?
And with this post, I'm ending my participation in the A to Z Challenge. It's been too draining, and I've been having to push aside other things to keep up with the number of posts.

1. Personal injury
If you have been injured in the accident, you can make a claim against the at fault insurers. Contact a lawyer for a proper assessment of your entitlement.
2. Wage loss
If you have been absent from work, you are entitled to claim any resulting wage loss.
3. Legal costs
You are entitled to recover your legal costs.
4. Your vehicle is a write off
You are entitled to the market value of an equivalent vehicle of similar age and condition as yours before the accident. The market value assessment is usually based on publicly available information.
5. Temporary replacement or courtesy vehicle
You are entitled to hire a car that is equivalent to your vehicle with a zero excess on the hire.
6. Repair to your vehicle
You can choose to have your car repaired by a repairer of your own choice. The repair should return the vehicle to its pre-accident condition.
7. Miscellaneous
You are entitled to recover other miscellaneous losses including damage to personal items such as clothing or glasses. You are entitled to claim for the inconvenience to you caused by the accident.
You have the right to use a lawyer to pursue your claim against the other party, or you can choose to make a claim on your own insurance policy.
If you claim on your insurance policy and you have comprehensive cover this will probably provide for the repair of your vehicle or payment of its pre-accident value if it is a write off. It may also cover you for a temporary hire vehicle. However, you should know that any claim you make will require you to pay the excess on your insurance and it is likely initially to affect your insurance premium and your no claims bonus. Some insurers may waive the excess if you are not at fault and you might be protected against the loss of your no claim bonus if you have taken out no claims bonus protection. If your insurers establish liability against the other party, you are entitled to recover from the other party any excess you have paid and any loss of no claims discount. Almost all insurers will initially expect you to meet any excess, will reduce your no claims bonus at first instance , and will likely make a premium rise at least in the short term.
Where liability is clear cut it doesn't make sense for you to claim on your own insurance policy.

Bartlett Is A New America – Reviewing Rednecks No. 3
by Oliver MacNamee
'Slap's dead. Cattle's dead. BBQ shop in ashes.' – Bartlett (Rednecks #3)
Pretty much summing up some of the events of the first two issues of this critically acclaimed new series written by Donny Cates with Lisandro Estherren on art, this third issue takes up the action moments after issue 2's promise of bloody slaughter. And, like any good movie, the violent aftermath is presented, but the deed–taking place in that space that exists between issues–is best left to the reader's imagination.
This may well look like another slice of Southern Gothic on first reading, but stick with it and you'll notice this is a series that tells the story of family, kith and kin and the politics of long standing family feuds. And, for Bartlett at least (one of a family of vampires living in plain sight in east Texas; Cates's own childhood home), it's a tale of fitting in. Or, at least, finding a compromise when you're a blood sucking good ol' boy who just wants to live a peaceful life and be left alone. And they would've gotten away with it too, if it wasn't for those pesky kids and their sexual urges.
Any chance of a peaceful life that has been forever shattered by the events of Christmas Eve and an impromptu visit to the town's strip bar, with the fallout currently playing out in this first story arc. And, while I am still undecided whether to read this through the point of view of Bartlett, this issue widens the net to include more on the family's patriarch, 'Granpa', who remembers the day when they ruled the land, and ruled through fear. We have only seen him in the shadows in issue one, and now he is revealed, as are his rather conservative views. Looking back through rose tinted glasses at a perceived Golden Age has always been the conceit of the old, whether they be vampiric or not.
But, the world changes, attitudes change, and Bartlett can be seen as representative of this. Is Bartlett the coward Grandpa thinks he is? Or, is he just after a simple life in which his family can be left alone? They aren't your typical vamps after all; living off the blood drained from the cattle they then pass onto their BBQ shack, now decimated. To me, Bartlett is representative of a new America, an America we don't always have presented to us at the moment as stereotypical rednecks are placed front and centre as the typical supporters of Trump, a man bleeding America worse than any old world vampire could ever imagine. Bartlett is a far more ethically grounded vampire; a new world vamp.
Or, he could be a stone-cold killer. The jury's still out on that one as we delve further into the hazy events of Christmas Eve that has led a small posse to the Bowmans' family home.
Three issues in and the varied cast of characters are coming into focus as fleshed out individuals. Cates slow-burn and slow paced chronology (by my reckoning, its still only Christmas evening) does not mean there isn't the action and visceral horror. Indeed, I only mention the timeframe because so much seems to have already happened, and we are only slowly realising the longterm consequences that could well come about should this feud get even further out of control. The truth is out and it could well get very ugly.
All the while, Estherren's loose, scratchy shadow heavy style of art, (well, it is night-time) complemented by Dee Cunniffe's broody, dark palette provides the doom and gloom that hangs over this issue. Punctuated every now and again by orange glows that suggest the heat of the south. And the odd explosion.
Cates is creating a story of epic proportions, I think. A vampiric family that stretches back in time can only offer a wide range of stories to be told and while the obvious comparison for this series would be Scott Snyder and Rafael Albuquerque's American Vampire, I think that would be too easy and too lazy given the family melodramas playing out in this issue.
This is very much a well realised world and it would seem, especially at the end of this third issue, Cates has the whole family history mapped out and ready to delve deeper when needed. In Bartlett, we have a man somewhat a slave to his family as well as to circumstances and I, for one, cannot believe he killed anyone. I look forward to next month, and learning more about this particular mystery being unraveled and, no doubt, the bigger picture. I feel this is a series that has legs and could well go on for a good while yet.
And, to indicate that this series does indeed have legs, it was only just announced that this third issue is going back to the presses for a second print. Now that has too be a seal of approval form all of you reading it. And those who aren't? There's still time to get stuck in.
Rednecks No. 3 is on sale now from Image Comics. If you can still find a copy that is.

3,000 Unique Wines Created in Past 4 Years
NAPA, CA--(Marketwire - September 22, 2010) - Crushpad announced today that it has crossed the 1% mark in US wine production by creating more than 1 out every 100 wines sold in the US. From its tiny San Francisco warehouse in 2004 to its current locations in Napa Valley and Bordeaux, Crushpad has enabled thousands of wine enthusiasts and over 150 commercial wine brands to make wine at the highest level, with numerous wines rated in the 90s by major wine critics. Crushpad now makes more unique wines than any other winery in the world.
Based on wine label filings with the US Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), Crushpad has now created 3,247 wines, more wines than any other winery in the history of the wine industry. In 2010 alone, Crushpad has received approval for 737 out of a US total of 48,931 labels from the TTB. These are unique wines, not custom labels placed on generic bottles.
Wines created at Crushpad are "micro production" (25-100 cases) although the level of effort and steps in winemaking are identical to larger productions. Whether 25 cases or 250,000 cases, every wine has a style goal, a winemaking plan, one final blend and one package. Crushpad sources fruit from around 50 notable vineyards and its winemaking team works directly with clients to create wines that are expressions of the clients' personal goals. No two wines are the same.
Crushpad clients can participate as much or as little as they like in the winemaking process. Through its state-of-the-art facilities and massive investment in internet technology, Crushpad enables clients to effectively "remote control" winemaking wherever they live. Clients work hand-in-hand with Crushpad staff on every step of the process from harvest to blending to label design and bottling.
"I have been making wine with Crushpad since 2004, designing a new label concept each year," said Connecticut resident Michael Fedele. "I've made some phenomenal wines and it's been great to be able to make the big decisions and then leave the detail execution to Crushpad."
Of the 3000+ wines, some have been for personal projects as small as 25 cases and some for commercial projects for as large as 10,000 cases. A small sampling of the over 3,000 wines is available at: http://www.crushpadwine.com/make/design
Crushpad is currently accepting final reservations for harvest 2010.

"Whatever you do, work at it with your whole heart as working for the Lord and not for men." Colossians 3:23
Many young boys have dreams of playing for their hometown team in the National Hockey League. Well, for David Booth, grandson of one of our St. Matthew congregational members, Mr. John Booth, after a journey of hard work, perseverance, and waiting, the Lord blessed this dream and made it a reality this year!
Growing up, David attended Peace Shelby Twp. Lutheran School from Kindergarten through Grade 8 and started playing hockey at a young age. After four successful seasons at Michigan State, the Lord continued to open numerous doors for David in the NHL and Russia Hockey League. Yet in one interview, David confessed that ever since he was able to lace up his skates, his dream was to play for the Detroit Red Wings.
At age 33, not only was David given a one-year contract with the Detroit Red Wings as well as the distinguished #17 jersey, but his face also appeared numerous times on the Little Caesar's giant screen as he scored two goals during last Saturday's game! Yet, what was even more exciting was reading his responses during a postgame interview with the Detroit News.
When asked about his career journey, David responded by saying, "I mean, it's been a long career and lots of ups and downs. I think lots of people have kind of given up on me, and at times I've given up on myself, you know? But my family and my wife and I know, God has never given up on me. It took tons of hard work. There's been a Bible verse that's been really close to me," Booth said. "It just says, "Whatever you do, work at it with all of your heart. It's working for the Lord and not for men." And it's always stuck with me. You've just got to do it when no one's watching. And so that's been my motivation to get back here."
Throughout his hockey career, David has been preparing and waiting for this moment. And now that it is here, David is honoring God and giving Him the glory in the process.
This Sunday, we will begin a season in the church calendar called "Advent", which means "To Come". During the season of Advent, we prepare our hearts as we wait to celebrate the birth of our Savior.
Just as David Booth has been waiting and preparing for this special moment of playing on the Red Wings by focusing on his training, there are many things that we can do during the season of Advent to that will help us prepare our focus and keep our eyes on Christ as we wait to celebrate Christmas. Avenues such as worship, prayer, serving and loving others, and spending time in God's Word are ways in which we can prepare our hearts for celebrating Christ's birth.
Today, your child will bring home an age-appropriate Advent devotional booklet. It is our hope that this tool will be a blessing to your family and provide an avenue of personal spiritual growth or "God time" during this Advent season. Your child will also receive a glow in the dark cross. As this cross illuminates your child's room at night, it is our hope that this gift will also help remind your child to keep their focus on Jesus as they wait to celebrate His birth.
You, your child, and time spent focusing on God's Word are three factors that make a perfect "hat trick", and it is our prayer that your family experiences a wonderful Advent season as you wait and prepare to celebrate the birth of our Savior.
In His love,
Mrs. Palka

In its first major effort on the issue, the Grocery Manufacturers of America kicked off a yearlong public relations campaign in defense of national brands on Feb. 12 with a speech by GMA President C. Manly Molpus (see related story in Forum on Page 22).
His talk, at the International Food & Lifestyles Media Conference in Chicago, urged journalists: "Don't buy into the fallacy that brand equity is fading, and report fallacy as fact-because the facts won't back you up."
Mr. Molpus used data from A.C. Nielsen Co., Information Resources Inc., Willard Bishop Consulting and Yankelovich Partners to back up his arguments.
"We haven't been vocal enough on this," GMA Senior VP Patrick L. Kiernan told Advertising Age. "Partly it's because companies don't want to be perceived as critical of [retailers'] strategies. And some of them make private labels themselves.
"Also, many didn't see private labels' growth as anything more than the traditional cycle of recession and price consciousness. But then the financial community began to say that brands are dead, and it began to affect stocks."
The GMA held a phone conference with more than 50 Merrill Lynch & Co. analysts and met with a series of national journalists last week to argue its case. It plans to try to reach retailers as well.
The trade group contends it is unfair to lump all private labels together when comparing them with national brands, and claims that outside of upscale premium store brands, most private labels are not doing as well as some analysts think.
The GMA's efforts come as the latest IRI figures show a slight decrease of 0.03% in unit sales of private labels in supermarkets for the 13 weeks ended Jan. 2, vs. the year-earlier period. GMA claims private labels are about 15% of grocery sales; the Private Label Manufacturers Association says 18.2%.

Now with Tom Brokaw and Katie Couric
Broadcast January 20, 1993 (NBC)
Covering the Bill Clinton Inaugural festivities, Katie Couric interviewed Barbra Streisand at the Arkansas Ball.
Katie: Why did you come by this particular ball?
Streisand: (laughs) Because I think President Clinton is coming here [...] It's not like what I expected. You know, like when you saw President Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy? It was in a big hallway. I don't know, it's not what I imagined.
Katie: Why was it so important for you and other people from Hollywood to attend this inauguration?
Streisand: Me and people like me have been very disastified with the government for the last 12 years. I feel that people can really make a difference. So my foundation supported a lot of Get Out The Vote, the women's vote—after all, we're 52 percent of the population and we're not represented in government. And I think people really realize that they can make a difference, that one vote counts, you know? So we felt impowered. And people of color, and Jewish people, and women ... we elected this man! He is of the people. We chose him.
Katie: [...] Were you terrified to sing in front of that many people [at the Inaugural Gala]?
Streisand: I did it the night before for the people who came for free. They just had to bring a bag of groceries for the homeless, which I thought was lovely. Yeah, I haven't sung for 18,000 people since McGovern, 1972. But I must say the people are wonderful. They're yelling out things from the stands, "Barbra, you're like butter," and it was very nice to feel them, you know? And I just feel so celebratory that we have this new and vibrant, young leadership that this country really needs. I wanted to feel a part of history.

Air transportation of lithium ion batteries recently garnered significant attention due to events following reports of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7's batteries overheating, catching fire, and even exploding. See Samsung Recalls Galaxy Note7 Smartphones Due to Serious Fire and Burn Hazards, Consumer Product Safety Commission, (Sept. 15, 2016). Samsung responded by recalling the Galaxy Note 7 and ceasing production, which subsequently led the Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA") to issue a Safety Alert For Operators ("SAFO") prohibiting air transportation of recalled lithium batteries and lithium battery powered and limiting its carriage by air crew and passengers. See FAA SAFO 16011 (Sept. 16, 2016). On October 15, 2016, the U.S. Department of Transportation ("DOT"), with the FAA and the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration ("PHMSA"), announced a complete ban on the Galaxy Note 7 for both on-person carriage and as air cargo. Samsung's recall and the FAA's corresponding SAFO, culminating with a complete ban on the device, highlight the increasing hazards posed by transportation of lithium batteries as air cargo.
Serious lithium battery incidents, including those causing catastrophic failure during flight, are not a new concern. Domestically, there have been a total of 129 reported incidents involving lithium batteries. See FAA Lithium Batteries & Lithium Battery-Powered Devices Report, FAA (Sept. 15, 2016). However, the trendline is a stark reality to those in government and industry tasked with the safety and security of air freight. As more consumer products use lithium batteries, and as manufacturers continue to push the envelope of these batteries' capabilities, the rate of incidents and frequency of alarming headlines can be reasonably expected to rise. See id.
(Chart compiled from data available at id.)
The danger of fire and explosion associated with air transportation of lithium ion batteries has been known to the air transportation community for decades. See, e.g., FAA SAFO 10017 (Oct. 8, 2010); see also "The FAA Is Freaked Out About Lithium-Ion Batteries on Planes," Popular Mechanics (Oct. 19, 2015); "New FAA rules limit batteries in checked and carry-on baggage," ARS Technica (Dec. 31, 2007). However, the present regulatory environment is unique in its collective vision, collaboration, and speed of change. This article examines the current regulatory regime, the forces shaping is future, and the emerging trends in hazardous materials compliance as it relates to the air transport of lithium batteries.
The PHMSA is the division of the DOT tasked with regulating the transportation of hazardous materials. The term "hazardous materials" is defined broadly as any "substance or material that the Secretary of Transportation has determined is capable of posing an unreasonable risk to health, safety, and property when transported in commerce…." 49 C.F.R. § 171.8. Lithium batteries are regulated hazardous materials due to the risk of the batteries overheating and causing a fire. See, e.g., 49 C.F.R. § 173.185; FAA SAFO 15010 (Oct. 8, 2015); FAA SAFO 10017 (Oct. 8, 2010).
Lithium batteries are specifically regulated as Class 9 hazardous materials under the Hazardous Materials Regulations ("HMR"). 49 C.F.R Parts 100 to 185. The hazardous materials classification applies to the lithium ion batteries and cells that power consumer electrical devices as well as disposable lithium metal batteries. Under the HMR, lithium batteries are subject to complex inspection, testing, packaging, labeling, recordkeeping, and notification requirements. See 49 C.F.R. §§ 175.30, 175.33, 175.75, and 173.185. The practical application of these rules differ depending on whether the batteries are contained in equipment carried aboard by passengers and crew, such as the Galaxy Note 7, or instead tendered as air cargo. One of the key differences under the HMR is the quantity of lithium and its containment in equipment.
Air transportation of lithium batteries is a serious matter for all parties involved. The FAA, as a sister DOT division with PHMSA, does indeed hold authority to designate, and regulate the transportation of, hazardous materials to promote safe flight of civil aircraft. 49 U.S.C. §§ 5101, et seq.; 49 U.S.C. § 44701. Despite the risk of fire and explosion, there are limited exceptions. Lithium batteries may be carried by air crew/passengers for personal use subject to the following conditions:
49 C.F.R. § 175.10(a)(18).
However, the ability to carry lithium batteries and lithium powered devices on aircraft is not unlimited and is subject to reasonable restrictions for potentially unsafe devices. Under the HMR, carriage of batteries or battery-powered devices is not permitted if the batteries or devices "are likely to create sparks or generate a dangerous evolution of heat, unless packaged in a manner which precludes such an occurrence." 49 C.F.R. § 173.21(c). Further, lithium cells or batteries that have been "identified by the manufacturer as being defective for safety reasons [and] have the potential of producing a dangerous evolution of heat [or] fire," such as the Galaxy Note 7, are prohibited from air transportation. See 49 C.F.R. § 173.185(f).
The broader regime governing transportation of lithium batteries as air cargo is significantly more complex than the typical airline passenger experiences. The general approach manages risk by prescribing net quantity per package guidelines based upon the lithium content of each cell or battery. 49 C.F.R. § 173.185(c)(4). Lithium batteries packed with or contained in equipment are limited to the number required to power the equipment plus two spares, provided that the total net mass of the lithium cells or batteries in the package transported does not exceed 5 kg. Id. When packages of lithium metal cells or batteries exceed 5kg, the packaging may not be transported by air carrier and must be marked with one of the following warnings: "PRIMARY LITHIUM BATTERIES – FORBIDDEN FOR TRANSPORT ABOARD PASSENGER AIRCRAFT" or "LITHIUM METAL BATTERIES – FORBIDDEN FOR TRANSPORT ABOARD PASSENGER AIRCRAFT," or labeled "CARGO AIRCRAFT ONLY." 49 C.F.R. § 173.185(c)(1)(iii). Additional packing, marking, and air waybill completion requirements are also provided in 49 C.F.R. § 173.185(c)(4).
As one would expect based upon headlines and reported incidents, the regulatory regime is quickly evolving. Agencies and trade associations across the globe are trending toward harmonized international rules and best practices for shipments containing lithium batteries. The air transportation industry in the United States is no exception in its alignment with international trends. Two central themes are emerging. First, the carriage of lithium batteries as cargo on passenger aircraft is quickly falling into disfavor. Those batteries that are carried will face strict quantity, packaging, and charge restrictions. Second, all parties involved in the air transportation of lithium ion batteries are increasingly encouraged to adopt compliance measures tailored to their particular roles in the supply chain. Manufacturers and shippers who seek to avoid compliance with international norms will face increasing scrutiny – even in the form of self-policing among legitimate industry.
The most recent significant change came when PHMSA issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking titled Hazardous Materials: Harmonization With International Standards. 81 FR 61741 (September 7, 2016). Chief among the material proposed amendments is to prohibit transporting lithium cells and batteries as cargo on passenger aircraft. When transporting on cargo aircraft, lithium cells and batteries must hold a charge not greater than 30 percent. PHMSA also proposes limiting or eliminating certain exceptions for small shipments. Finally, PHMSA seeks to update the hazard communication requirements, such as the adoption of a standard lithium battery mark for use across all modes and requiring that hazard markings are applied to each package or container of more than four cells or batteries in equipment or where there are more than two packages in any consignment.
The substance of many of these proposed amendments were also found in a PHMSA Safety Advisory Notice issued to increase awareness among domestic shippers, carriers, and forwarders of actions taken by the International Civil Aviation Organization ("ICAO"). PHMSA Notice No. 2016-5 (April 1, 2016). In an ominous warning, PHMSA drew attention to the determination among aircraft manufacturers and regulatory agencies that aircraft fire suppression technologies are not capable of containing the flames and heat generated by packages of lithium batteries. ICAO amended its Technical Instructions for the Safe Transportation of Dangerous Goods by Air to include: (1) the prohibition of transporting lithium batteries aboard passenger aircraft unless contained in carry-on personal electronic devices; (2) a requirement that all lithium batteries transported aboard cargo aircraft carry a charge no greater than 30% of their rated capacity; and (3) a limitation of one package of lithium batteries per overpack. ICAO Addendum No. 3 (January 15, 2016); ICAO Addendum No. 4 (February 23, 2016).
In similar ominous tone, the FAA also issued another SAFO warning of "the potential for catastrophic hull loss" resulting from the fire and explosion risk associated with transporting lithium batteries. SAFO 16001 (January 19, 2016). The FAA supports recommendations by ICAO and aircraft manufacturers that operators conduct safety risk assessments in order to manage the risks associated with lithium batteries. ICAO identified seven criteria for such a safety risk assessment: (1) capabilities of the operator; (2) overall capability of the aircraft and its systems; (3) packing and packaging; (4) quantity of batteries and cells; (5) containment characteristics of unit load devices; (6) specific hazards and safety risks associated with each battery and cell type to be carried alone or in combination; and (7) chemical composition of the batteries and cells. ICOA Supplement Addendum (February 23, 2016).
The far-reaching impact of coming changes will influence not only the way consumers handle cellular phones when boarding aircraft, but the wider range of consumers, manufacturers, forwarders, and carriers who employ aircraft to transport this increasingly prominent means of powering modern life. However, regulatory changes alone are insufficient to ensure air safety. The PHMSA and FAA advisories correctly suggest that operational best practices are essential to keeping individuals safe and companies out of headlines. Compliance with this changing world of lithium transportation requires vigilant awareness, assessment, training, and process improvement.
All transportation participants must recognize that lithium compliance is not new, although certain aspects are changing in real time. Ultimately, lithium is just one hazardous material among all those regulated as part of the HMR. The FAA correctly does not prescribe specific guidelines, instead it emphasizes best practices of conducting broad assessments of shippers, cargo requirements, communications, as well as safety and operating procedures in developing effective responses to each participant's risk profile. There is no one-size-fits-all solution to hazardous materials compliance, in part because of the innumerable (and often invisible) ways in which lithium batteries are infiltrating our everyday lives. Every shipper, forwarder, or carrier must closely analyze operations and develop appropriate standard operating procedures to manage risk. It would be appropriate for corporate compliance professionals to review these standard operating procedures at least once annually due to the increasing speed of change.
Compliance with all HMR is the responsibility of every shipper, forwarder, and carrier. Each are subject to investigations and inspections that carry civil and criminal penalties for violations of the HMR. Civil penalties increased in 2016 to $77,114 per violation, or $179,933 per violation in cases involving death or serious bodily injury. 49 C.F.R. § 107.329. The civil penalty for training violations is now $463. Id. Criminal penalties may include imprisonment for up to 5 years, or 10 years in cases involving death or bodily injury. 49 C.F.R. § 107.333. Of course, the potential for loss of life and damage to reputation are immeasureable.

AbstractThe article deals with the basic elements of a rational strategy of economic development of Russia in the modern circumstances. The analysis shows that the current state of confrontation between Russia and the United States will last long enough. Trying to shorten the period of forced partial isolation, Russia should use it to restore growth and to prepare for further integration with Europe. We need to debug the credit system, to complete the creation of the NIS, as well as systems of indicative planning and continuing education, and to improve the administration in accordance with the principles of the theory of -developmental state.- Implementing import substitution, we should seek to production diversification, based on the expansion of domestic consumption of goods produced from natural resources. It is necessary to ensure the dissemination of the technologies available at leading Russian companies in the whole country, and accelerate the transition to innovative development. To solve these problems, one needs a modern science sector, containing all the intermediate links between basic and applied research. Strengthening the rule of law, respect for the opposition, improving the investment climate - this strategy is the best response to foreign political pressure, the key to Russia-s strategic security.

I don't know about you, but one of my absolute favorite things to do during the summer is go to amusement parks. I love roller coasters and pretty much any ride that makes me scream so loud I can't breathe (and trust me, I scream a lot...ask my friends). Even though I am absolutely terrified of these rides I find it so fun and enjoyable. It's lucky that my dad also loves roller coasters just as much as I do, we will ride pretty much anything. Here is a list of our top five favorite amusement parks (so far!)
1. Cedar Point: Probably THE best amusement park we have been too! The rides were absolutely insane! I went when I was younger so I wasn't able to go on one of the rides but you better believe I went on every single one I could! At the time this roller coaster was the second largest in the world. We had waited online for about three hours and just as we finally strapped into our seats, they shut the ride down and made us get back in line. After waiting what felt like forever, we got back on the ride. It was the craziest and most exciting ride I had ever been on.
2. Hershey Park: Let me tell you, this place is not only about the chocolate! The rides are awesome! They have three or four major roller coasters which are absolutely terrifying and amazing all at the same time. My favorites are the wooden roller coaster (The Cyclone) the one where your feet dangle (Great Bear) and finally, the one with the terrifying drop right in the beginning (Fahrenheit). Not only do they have amazing roller coasters they have fun rides for people that don't like roller coasters!
3. Six Flags Great Adventure: This amusement park is without a doubt the best out of all of the Six Flags. The amount of crazy amazing rides is insane. The most crazy ride being King Da Ka of course. When I first went to this amusement park was with my school. I had no idea what this roller coaster was but I heard it was incredible, so I figured I had to try it. We arrived before the gates opened so my friend and I decided to run as fast as we could to get to the ride. I had no idea how huge the drop was! It. Was. Amazing.
4. The Boardwalk At Wildwood: I recently went to the Boardwalk with a couple of my friends, it was an amazing week. We had soooo much fun and believe it or not, the rides were pretty intense. There weren't many roller coasters but there were plenty of rides that could scare you just as well. The windy spiny rides were so fun and exciting, the view of the water and the beach while at the top of the log flume wasn't too bad either!
5. Busch Gardens in Virginia: My family and I recently took a trip to Virginia in order to see what kinds of rides Busch Gardens had. We got lucky and the day we went, the park was empty! It was a little rainy, but it could've been way worse. We got on every ride without having to wait. One ride I remember was the Griffon. We rode this one at least four times. It was so scary but gave you such a thrill, the ride lasted a long time which was so awesome. I'm really hoping we go back there soon!
Do you know of any fun amusement parks not listed here? I'm always looking for a good roller coaster!

What ever happened to...
A. People being polite as they drive through parking lots ? I am constantly amazed that when you walk out of the store with a buggy full of purchases that parking lot drivers just keep on driving without the slightest urge to stop and let you pass. Heaven forbid they don't get that first spot in the lot and have to walk. Most of us can use the exercise we get from a further spot, right? (I bet the Wiggles would stop for me!)
B. Looking both ways before you cross the street or parking lot? On the other side of the coin are those who walk out in front of cars without looking. Usually the same guy who won't stop for you to walk by will be the one to walk out in front of a car with out looking. We get a lot of 'winter visitors' (retired folks) here in the winter and I swear they are the worst offenders (of both infractions). It's not 1922 people - there are a lot of drivers out there. I don't want to be driving through the Walmart parking lot when offender A meets offender B.
C. Collared shirts on men? We live in a very, very casual town. Think shorts in church - yep, happens ALL the time. More often than not. Christmas eve mass? My husband was the only man under the age of 60 wearing a suit. But, I digress, this isn't about what to wear in church (I can post about that later). Not only is it casual here but it's hot in the summer. I guess that combo means that men don't wear collared shirts anymore. Ever. I love to see little boys in collared shirts and it's so rare. And it means these little boys will grow up not wearing collared shirts as men. When I dropped LM off at religion class 2 little boys were coming in with the cutest plaid collared shirts. As it should be.

Some time in December, TreeDots was invited to set up a booth at EarthFest Singapore 2018. We were having a bunch of mixed feelings then, it was between excitement and fear because of the same reason, the entire TreeDots team had never set up a booth before!
Fast forward till now, we were glad we went took the leap of faith and went along with joining EarthFest Singapore 2018. Plenty of sleepless night, and thankful for some of our friends who decided to help us out – special thanks to Flora Artisan for helping us with the styling of the entire booth! The weather was great that day as well, despite having rained for the past few days.
Made plenty of new friends along the way, started a new product specially for that which is awesome for our fresh produce sellers onboard – Adopting a Veggie box. Nobody knows what will be under-demanded by the market, and being able to put them into a box and sell it to customers whom are cool with surprises? PERFECT PLAN. Check them out here, and probably order some to take a break off grocery shopping for a week (or more) and prevent all these perfectly fine vegetables from being thrown away!
Many exciting collaborations are also in place, we met organic farmers who are keen on being listed on our platform, content generators willing to help us publicise our ideals, professional executives who are volunteering to improve our business operations for free, and we even got ourselves a short paragraph in a Straits Times article!
We thank everyone whom have supported us thus far, and for those whom have missed EarthFest, worry not for we have taken a short montage of us working hard that day for you!
Click here to view if the video isn't working!
With this, the event is over and we thank all of you for your continuous support. Do check out our page more often for more upcoming events!

Quilting, lawn bowls and bridge it is not. Elderly people in New Zealand are enthusiastically embracing a new pastime: coffin construction. Scores of retirees across the country have formed clubs so they can get together and build their own coffins. They say the activity is cost-saving and helps to combat loneliness.
The Coffin Club Where Elderly People Of New Zealand Make Their Own Coffins
Dozens of groups have sprung up across the country, providing retirees with new friends and, ultimately, cheaper funerals
The original coffin club was founded in Rotorua in 2010 by former palliative care nurse Katie Williams, 77.
Williams initially launched the Kiwi Coffin Club in her garage but after a host of handy local men came on-board the club took off.
The club soon moved to a larger facility to cater to its swelling numbers.
"There is a lot of loneliness among the elderly, but at the coffin club people feel useful, and it is very social...
We have morning tea and lunch, and music blaring, and cuddles" says Katie.
As well as members building their own coffinsthe group also construct baby coffins for the local hospital, which they donate for free.
Jeanette Higgins, also 77, lost her daughter and husband in the last two years. Death was on her mind.
Williams says the club is particularly appealing to Maori people, who often have large families and find the cost of funerals "crippling."
"Our motto is; it's a box until there is someone in it. And while it's just a box, it brings us together."
We want to finish off with the Elvis-based coffin that the club member Raewynne Latemore made!

Is LinkedIn a must for job seekers?
The Hiring Process Social Media in Job Search
Everybody says that LinkedIn is so important, but I just don't like all this social media stuff. I don't want to put all my business on the Internet for anybody to see. Why do I have to use LinkedIn anyway?
You don't have to use LinkedIn.
Unless you want a job, that is.
Consider what your refusal to use social media may be costing you:
• Some recruiters will wonder why you aren't on LinkedIn. Are you resistant to technology?
• Will they have to spend a lot of time and money training you?
• Are you going to be difficult about any unfamiliar method of doing business?
• Is it going to be difficult to train you to do things their way?
• Are you anti-change, or inflexible?
• Do you not understand the way the world works nowadays?
• Are you lazy?
• How old are you, anyway?
Even worse, employers who depend on LinkedIn to bring them candidates will never know about you. They will miss the chance to hire the perfect employee. Worst of all, you may miss out on the job of your dreams.
The final argument for LinkedIn: the majority of employers use LinkedIn and other social networking sites to recruit. Estimates range as high as 93%. Do you really want to eliminate all those employers?
If you're rethinking your position now, come to the FCWS seminar "The LinkedIn Connection." You don't even have to sign up for a LinkedIn account; you can do it in class with a patient instructor. You'll learn what to put in your profile to attract the interest of a great employer, and not an online troll. You'll be able to connect with people you'd like to hear from, and with experts in your field. You'll learn about what others are doing in your career area, and share your knowledge with them. You'll find easy ways to learn about companies and job openings.
And in all likelihood, it could lead you to your next job.
