"Brasilia" The VW T2 was made in Brazil at VW's factory in São Paulo. She was one of the last VW Kombis from VW's long production of this great classico, spanning from 1953 to 2013. It's had some great improvements compared to the early models, which include a super economical biofuel engine this gives low Co2 and is also very reliable. This is 2013 technology wrapped up in a vintage shell.
We had this classic VW converted by our friends in Brazil and has some great craftsmanship, making it feel like a mini yacht. If Roman Abramovich owned a VW camper I dare say this would be it. She comes with everything included for you to have an amazing Pão de forma classico para teres umas férias fantásticas. Vê a lista completa aqui. o que está incluído

Questrade Makes My Head TurnPosted on August 9th, 2009 No comments
I love when I have something positive to say about a brokerage. After having a nightmare with Interactive Brokers, any good experiences with brokerages will have to be met with a positive review.Originally when I joined Questrade they looked solid but their customer service was rediculously slow. After running into problems with my FOREX account, I called up customer service without waiting for more then 1 minute. In the past, I waited days for a respone or any type of help. It's safe to say that Questrade is making their way up. They definitely stepped up their customer service game! Kudos to Questrade… expect a full review in the coming month.
REVIEW: Interactive Brokers Canada a Scam?Posted on June 10th, 2009 8 comments
First off, don't trust Interactive Brokers. My experience with them was the worst I've ever had with any company in my life. I was forced to liquidate my account, sell my positions, completely shut down, and they also managed to freeze my personal bank accounts for over 3 months. The question is why? Let me get into detail for you…
Around late April 2008, Interactive Brokers kept sending me deposit notification emails saying to confirm a deposit to my account. After ignoring them for a few weeks (since it's not my money) someone from IB called me. He told me that there is a deposit going into my account for $25,000. I told them that it's not for me, but he insisted it was coming from me and intended for me. I made him repeat my name, the amount and where it was coming from. So I went online as he instructed and setup the deposit notification (heck I thought a family member was sending me a gift!). Monday came along and I thought it was dumb so I cancelled the deposit notification. Soon after, $25,000 finds its way into my account even after I cancelled the deposit notification. My first instinct was to hold the money in an interest bearing account at PC Financial.
Roughly two weeks later, all my personal accounts freeze at PC Financial and IB tells me I must liquidate all my positions because my account was being closed down. For the record, I was holding short options on Lehman Brothers that expired on September 19, 2008… oh boy; I missed a boat load of cash because of this fiasco!
So Interactive Brokers Canada puts the blame on the initial bank that sent the money. They claimed that TD Canada Trust made a mistake in sending the money to me. I told Interactive Brokers I have no problem returning the money and they'd get it immediately, but asked why my brokerage account was being closed. Although this scenario is not covered in their terms and conditions and I didn't do anything wrong, they decided to permanently ban me from Interactive Brokers on the grounds that I took the money knowing it wasn't mine. It's funny because they insisted it was mine and even when I told them it's not mine they still forced that money into my account. Go figure…
At the end of the day, Interactive Brokers has a very complex trading platform only intended for high volume traders, but they rank at the very worst in my books for customer service. They may boast cheap trades, but their customer service can cost a lot more then any commission fee will be, and in my case that's what happened. Poor discretion, poor service and just outright jerks are found at Interactive Brokers.
So the story ends with me bring ostracized from my bank accounts and missing mortgage payments for over 3 months. Interactive Brokers received their money and shut me down. Oh, I forgot to mention, I lost my Lehman, Citibank and JP Morgan put options, which would have had me laughing to the bank!
I hate Interactive Brokers Canada, they are an outright scam!!Canadian Brokers, Canadian Forex Brokers broker, brokerage, discount brokerage, ib, ib canada review, ib review, ib scam, interactive brokers, interactive brokers canada, interactive brokers canada review, interactive brokers canada scam, interactive brokers scam, review interactive brokers, stock broker

The following listing includes recommended doctors and practitioners for your thyroid care. Please note that being listed here in the Thyroid Top Doctors Directory doesn't necessarily mean a doctor is the right one for you. The doctor may be an empathetic and warm physician, but not open to working with drugs like Armour or T3 drugs. The doctor may be brilliant and innovative, but have a terrible bedside manner. Or the doctor may be quite costly and not on insurance programs. Always call the doctor's office ahead of time to find out more about the doctor's philosophy, approach, costs, and other important factors before going in for your first appointment. Please let me know if you have feedback -- positive or negative -- about doctors listed here, or would like to recommend your "top" doctor.
Thanks! -- Mary

Farmstead Restoration and Preservation Project
About the Project
The dodge County landscape has been punctuated with barns and cows grazing in pastures since the rise of Wisconsin's dairy industry in the late 1800's. Unfortunately, the red painted wooden barns that housed herds of 30-40 cows have become obsolete. Many of these barns have fallen into disrepair and are forever disappearing from our countryside. Modernization and changes in dairy cattle husbandry over the last 40 years has concentrated large herds of cattle into steel free-stall barns. Unless the old barns have been repurposed as horse barns or storage sheds, they are too expensive to maintain. The demise of so many beautiful barns has raised the concern and interest in preserving a dairy barn by members of the Dodge County Antique Power Club. (DCAPC) The goal of the DCAPC Farmstead Restoration and Preservation Project is to construct an educational dairy display for those who have never experienced rural farm life, as well as a recreational environment for club members who collect and restore power equipment that was used in days gone by. The DCAPC is extremely excited to announce that a donation of a dairy barn has been secured and has been moved onto the club grounds located off County Hwy. B near Burnett in Dodge County. Once the project is completed, the barn will become an educational resource, displaying numerous types of antique milking equipment, stanchions, calf pens, and feeding equipment, just to name a few. The upstairs, or hay loft part of the barn, will feature displays showcasing the history of dairy farming. Donations of dairy equipment from local retired dairy farmers will also be exhibited in the barn. Additionally, donations of farm memorabilia, farm photos, and collectibles will be on display. The DCAPC visions for the future include a complete farmstead, featuring a silo, milk house, chicken coop, and other outbuildings typical of a productive dairy farm. A real farmstead would provide the feel of the work as it was done in the day. 4-H and FFA members, as well as students and youth of all ages, will benefit from the practical learning experience the proposed farmstead will offer.

April 2017 Newsletter – Stenosis Symptoms
– Sleep-deprived people may be too tired to exercise, decreasing the "calories burned" side of the weight-change equation.
– People who don't get enough sleep may take in more calories than those who do, simply because they are awake longer and have more opportunities to eat.
– Lack of sleep also disrupts the balance of key hormones that control appetite, so sleep-deprived people may be hungrier than those who get enough rest each night.

There is some optimism in the dry desert air that the Las Vegas real estate market is hitting bottom. At long last. Perhaps. It's still too early, though, to go into any definitive announcements about that. The patient's vital signs do remain quite mixed, that's why.
In any case, 3,198 single-family homes were closed in April, as was reported by GLVAR, or Greater Las Vegas Association of Realtors. In the year-to-year comparison that adds up to a big leap of over 78% and on a month-to-month basis it translates into a solid 7% gain from March. These numbers warm a lot of hearts in the struggling desert valley. Downright affordable prices are drawing scores of buyers to the housing bazaar here, amply bolstered by still low-flying mortgage interest rates.

OEM vs. Aftermarket Parts
If you're in the market for a replacement part, you might feel overwhelmed by all of the different options that you encounter. One of the most common questions that we get at the parts department is, "What is the difference between OEM vs. aftermarket parts?" You might be surprised at the difference in quality between the two options. Let's dive into the advantages and disadvantages, so you can feel confident ordering your replacement.
What are Aftermarket Parts?
So, what are aftermarket parts? Aftermarket products are created by a company other than the original manufacturer. If you get a new component for your Optima that is made by anyone other than Kia, that's an aftermarket part. Some people like to shop third-party manufacturers to save some money. Generally speaking, aftermarket parts are cheaper than OEM options, and there are far more options to explore. However, quality and consistency are a gamble. Some aftermarket parts are great, but some are total duds. Without a warranty, there's nothing that you can do to make up for the loss.
What are OEM Parts?
Now that you know about aftermarket parts, what are OEM parts? OEM parts are made by the original equipment manufacturer. If you get new brakes from Kia for your Sedona, you've purchased an OEM part. There are quite a few benefits to choosing authentic replacement components.
- You're guaranteed to get a perfect fit that was made specifically for your vehicle.
- Quality is consistent, and most products have a warranty in case something happens down the road.
- There's no need to compare a million different products. There's usually just one OEM part to choose if you need a replacement, so you spend less time shopping.

Dear Editor,
As Matzav.com readers might be aware, this past Friday, a number of colonies in Harris, New York, experienced a devastating tornado. Trees were uprooted, power lines were down, cars were dented and some bungalows were damaged. With the kindness of Hashem, no individual was injured.
Upon seeing all the damage that the tornado left, one cannot cease to give thanks to Hashem for this wondrous miracle. Even the local Police Chief commented to one of the residents at Victory Cottages, "Your G-d surely protects you," to which the resident responded, "He takes care for us all."
Nearly all the residents of the nearby colonies evacuated. Some were asked to leave by the fire department out of concern that one might get electrocuted from the live wires. Others left due to the primitive living conditions in addition of not having any prepared food for Shabbos.
It was truly amazing how, in some instances, total strangers found room in their already cramped living space and took in large families, fed them and found a bed where they could sleep. All this chesed they did gladly with a mere few hours before Shabbos.
We all know how just dealing with getting our own family ready for Shabbos can sometimes be overbearing. These acts of Chesed truly personify the caring nature of K'lal Yisroel.
A few families from Victory Cottages made the decision to remain in the colony and do without running water, electricity, and an Eiruv for convenience. These families who stayed behind did so for a number of reasons, but one reason should be highlighted, as it is a message which needs review.
This message is that one could have a beautiful and happy Shabbos even in difficult and challenging situations. The message of performing mitzvos in hard times is not one we often get to give over.
Often, when we are thrown a curve ball in life, we tend to throw up our hands in despair. When things aren't as perfect as we want them to be, we suddenly freeze. We are so spoiled with everything being so perfect, that we forget that our grandparents whether they went through the war or not, didn't always have the luxuries which we've become accustomed to. They were just as happy and somehow managed their lives without the things we take for granted.
For those who chose to stay, Shabbos was just as beautiful with the candle lights. The food was plentiful and delicious despite not having cold soda. So what if the liver was spoiled? There was still a warm cholent and kugel.
I should tell you, at the start of Shabbos the children were a bit concerned, but as Shabbos continued you could see that they were happy with the decision of their parents to remain in the colony.
What I will surely recall for a long time, is how during Shabbos many of our Gentile neighbors who otherwise would ignore us, or at best utter an unfriendly remark, suddenly began to talk and actually had the opportunity to see that Jews are friendly and that we do care for them as well. As you can figure, we had no Minyan on premises. For the Tefilos we walked to Armon Estates, which is approximately 25 minutes away. We walked into their shul dressed in suit and tie, the "Yeshiva Look" you might say. In a few moments we were surrounded by our chasiddishe compatriots who warmly greeted us.
It's imperative to show recognition and let everyone know, how these beautiful Yidden from Armon Estates were so giving and accommodating to us. Throughout the Shabbos, these Chasiddishe Yidden were so concerned for us. To them, it made no difference in how we were dressed or how we talked. We were their brothers and that's what mattered, whether showing concern for our safety, or asking if we had food for our families. They offered us coffee before davening began and treated us like kings at the lavish and delicious Kiddush post davening.
Can you imagine? Not one person asked us to get out of their set places for davening. Each of us they gladly honored with an Aliyah and not to receive money for a Mi She-bei-rach.
We are truly blessed and fortunate to be members of K'lal Yisroel. Ashrecha Yisroel! Mi K'amcha Yisroel!
A Fellow Yid in the Castkills

Summer's control is underway
This season's control work is well underway and sees the Programme consolidate somewhat, with a focus on removing a number of remaining infestations and seed sources within areas where we've been working in the first two years.
Programme partners have also been looking ahead to what Phase II of the programme should look like, and what will be needed to deliver it. We will be working with partners at the regional level in the New Year to develop further planning for future work under the Programme.
There is wide agreement that the collaborative national approach to tackling wildings has been a real strength of the Programme and one that we should continue to build on going forward. It is interesting to note that, increasingly, the wilding conifer Programme is seen as an approach that can inform collaborative programmes on other issues.
The National Wilding Conifer Control Programme team wish you all the best for festive season. Try not to bore your friends and family by pointing out all the wildings on your holiday road trip, and we will be in touch in the New Year.
Merry Christmas
Health and Safety
The National Wilding Conifer Control Programme is continuing to put a strong emphasis on ensuring that we create a safe working environment and culture. To do this we need to know what's happening on the ground.
So a reminder for all those involved in the Programme to please report all hazards, near misses, & incidents – as this may be part of broader pattern
Omarama Conference
The NZ Wilding Conifer Conference this year was held in Omarama and had a record attendance of around 95 participants. Hon. Damien O'Connor, Minister of Agriculture, Biosecurity, Food Safety, and Rural Communities gave the keynote address in which he congratulated everyone on the success of the National Wilding Conifer Control Programme and confirmed his support of wilding conifer control.
The conference included updates from each region and community trusts as well as research and operations presentations. The conference field trip was on the second day, where participants heard from local farmers and landowners about the local issues as well as accomplishments. Overall, the conference was a big success. A full summary of the conference is available on the wilding conifer website.
Programme Annual Report
The National Wilding Conifer Control Programme 2017/18 Annual Report was published in October, in time for the NZ Wilding Conifer Conference.You can download the report from the wilding conifer website, or email email@example.com for hard copies – just tell us how many, and where you want them delivered.
One Billion Trees Fund
Where a wilding conifer forest is removed, the land may – in suitable places – be put back into more productive uses – eg pasture or planted trees. Where a decision is made to plant in trees, the One Billion Trees fund may be able to assist in the planting of low-spread-risk trees.The National Wilding Conifer Control Programme is working alongside the 1 Billion Trees fund to look at opportunities around this.

As I have blogged about before, it is a common misconception that robots will suddenly replace humans in their roles at work – at least in most jobs. As things stand, I am not personally feeling any real threat that my cyborg–twin is about to make me redundant, although I dare say there are things a robot could do more efficiently that would help free up my time to do other higher value activities.
And this is the key point about Robotic Process Automation (RPA): there will absolutely be tasks that could be automated or improved through the use of software that drives RPA. Why pay someone to process invoices when a piece of software could do so in half the time allowing the human employee to address the more pressing issue of improving the overall invoice process?
There are many examples in several industries, such as insurance, where RPA is making a real impact to automating transactional or back-office processes and it is difficult to argue the case against in my view.
A recent TV news programme also brought this point to light: set in a local dairy farm, the reporter was showing how 'robots' (or in reality, software) was allowing for many human tasks to be automated in a fraction of the time. Yes there may be a threat to some human labour, but balance this against the fight dairy farmers have with the supermarkets to protect their own livelihood. Just like the supermarkets, the farmers need to innovate to survive too and if they can offset falling prices with reducing their own production costs, then RPA cannot be the malicious threat some commentators would have us believe.
I believe this is another example of how technology will help to improve our lives and we will develop new human roles in response. Did Internet shopping kill the supermarket trade – no – it made it boom with new jobs in ecommerce. Have UBER and HAILO killed the taxi trade? No the licensed taxi trade has innovated and now uses the same, or similar, systems themselves to compete. The result is a better customer experience. Adding technology to industries that have relied on labour can change how services work, but time has shown that it's not the jobs apocalypse some commentators predict.
In a recent blog the president of the Institute for RPA, Raheem Hasan, argues that 140m jobs might vanish by 2025 because of RPA or similar kinds of business automation. However, he also points out that the creation and management of the RPA itself creates many new roles that do not exist at present. He compares the introduction of RPA today to when ATMs were introduced to banks several decades ago. The role of the clerk or cashier has not vanished, but the machine has taken on many mundane or repetitive tasks – so the human role becomes more sophisticated and requires customer engagement or interaction that cannot just be scripted.
RPA has the potential to improve many areas of business where repetitive tasks need to be delivered to the same exacting level of quality. Customer service is a great example as many brands find that a small number of queries constitute a large percentage of customer interactions. If RPA can help to automate help for customers for common problems then the human agents can focus on spending more time with customers and engaging at a deeper level. Everyone wins.

At high speed a stop of stepping will inertia slip steps and loose synch of shaft location.
To stop a stepper you need to decelerate the motor gradually in order for the computer to know the shaft position with certainty...
I am Mechanical Engineering student working on my Intro to engineering class project. We are a group of two students ME and EE but unfortunately my EE partner dropped out of class and I have to finish the project myself.
The project is about rotating some sort of pipes. I have not figured out where to place the electric motor but all I am working on now is setting up the circuit and the motor.
I have a kaysan stepper motor nema 17
Datasheet link :
I am planning to have the motor rotate one or two rotations in only one direction and then stop. When a push button is pressed the motor will start rotating the one or two rotations.
I did some research and I found out that I need a motor shield or Easy drive to control the motor. So far I have the following items:
1. kaysan stepper motor nema 17.
2. Arduino Uno Board.
3. Adafruit Motor Shield v2.3
4. Easy Driver Shield Stepper Motor Driver V44 A3967.
5. Push buttons and the circuit board.
I am really not sure what is the best to use between the Adafruit Motor Shield and the EasyDriver. What is best suitable for my application ? and in terms of the Arudino code how do I make the motor stop completely after specific number of rotations.
I have the Stepper Motor connected to the Arduino and I tested it using the Example code in the Arduino software but I am not really sure how to make the motor stop completely? As of the power supply, I am planning to use an external battery buy not sure what voltage I need.
Your help is really appreciated.
At high speed a stop of stepping will inertia slip steps and loose synch of shaft location.
To stop a stepper you need to decelerate the motor gradually in order for the computer to know the shaft position with certainty...
Don't send it any steps, and it stops ! Calculate how many steps = 1 revolution, send n x steps = n revs
Now... fyi (educationally) ...One way to stop a stepper and (within limits) keep it from further rotation is to short the drive leads. It produces a brake.
Try it with a stepper. Rotate the motor by hand. Now twist the four leads together and try again...
If you remove the drive signal to the driver board then the motor will stop. However it will not have a strong holding force.
When you control the stepper you will be sending a specific number of turn commands to the board (steps) this will move the motor that far - I don't know what the driver board has on it - it may be an H bridge or it may be simply a darlington driver chip (often ULN2003) you can find out a lot about interfacing steppers here

How long it takes to unblock the deposit?
There is a security deposit blocked on your credit card meanwhile the rental. It will be unblocked on the safe return of the car. In case of any damages caused during your car rental period, a certain amount can be discounted from your deposit. The amount of blocked security deposit may last up to 20 working days to appear back on your credit card. This process totally depends on the banks involved. If 20 days passed and you still not see the security deposit amount at your account we recommend contacting car rental agency direct.
Can I rent a specific car brand or model?
As an internet car rental broker, we offer cars filtered by category. The car can be chosen by a specific group. You can choose from filters on our website, for instance, MINI, ECONOMY or SUV etc. Exact brand or models cannot be guaranteed. The vehicles you see online are examples based on the most common vehicle in the fleet for each category. If you choose the car on the website you will be given a car in the selected size. We also offer a filter to find automatic or diesel cars available. So we will confirm the size and the filter you have selected.
Why do you need my flight number?
When you make your reservation, we will always ask to provide the flight number. It is important for the local rental car supplier, so they can know when you will arrive. If they see that your flight is delayed they will normally keep the car until your arrival. It is also very important to leave the flight number on the reservation if you have an option MEET AND GREAT. What's that mean it means that rental car representative will wait for you in the arrival hall holding a poster with your name in order to lead you to the car. Your flight number most likely contains two letters and 4 numbers. If you are not coming in by flight, you can enter 0000 to be able to make the reservation online.
What does SHUTTLE BUS mean?
SHUTTLE BUS is an option which some rental car agencies offer in order to pick up the car. On our website, you can select a local supplier directly located at the airport. However, SHUTTLE BUS is a free bus or minibus service provided by the local car rental agency. The bus can be easily found in the front of the arrival hall and will take you to the car rental office in order to pick up your car. If you have any difficulties with finding the SHUTTLE BUS of your rental car agency on arrival, please call the telephone number from the local company on your car rental voucher. They will instruct you on how to find the bus and arrive at the office.
How old are the cars?
As an online car rental broker, we are not able to specify the construction year of the car that you will receive. The exact car makes, models and construction year cannot be guaranteed and are subject to availability. The vehicles you see online are examples based on the most common vehicle in the fleet for each category. The vehicles are provided technically in perfect conditions. We choose our car rental providers carefully and see that they always update they car fleet. However, the standards of the cars also depend on the country where you would like to rent the car. We can confirm the size of the car and the options you have chosen.

[GMT] Mon - Fri: 08:00 - 16:00 Sat - Sun : 08:00 - 16:00
I find that the Rental Car Group often has significantly lower rates than dealing directly with the car rental companies, particularly with overseas rentals.

Bagelstein is a chain of bagel eateries all over France. They started to expand abroad, with a few locations in Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg and Germany. The bagel itself has an interesting history, they are thought to have been brought by Polish Jews to the US (Specifically New York) where they became a staple*.
The first time I visited Bagelstein was a long time ago, in Grenoble, after a hike for which I was totally ill-prepared. It was one of the first times I had a bagel, which was not that common in France around that time. I really liked the bagel and I remember the fun and unusual decor.
Fast-forward to last month. I kind of forgot about Bagelstein until I visted Paris a few weeks ago, and I noticed several Bagelsteins. Somehow I had lived in Paris for years without noticing this! Time to correct this oversight and test some bagels.
As mentioned, Bagelstein has a quirky kind of decor, with a fake family tree on the wall and signs that say "Men who enter here are never seen again" or something along those lines. For those familiar with Subway, ordering is a bit similar. You pick the type of bagel you want, (all but one are vegan) and the staff will prepare your bagel directly at the counter. There are standard bagels 'recipes', of which none is vegan. But you can also construct your own bagel with the ingredients available: there's veggies like onions and tomatoes and several sauces. After that you bagel is wrapped and ready to eat. There's also soups, but I don't think those are vegan. For drinks there's coffee, teas, soda's and milk shakes.
Nice surprise, they have a "dessert". While there are a lot of non-vegan pastries, there's also a "dessert bagel" which is a bagel with a sweet spread, such as peanut butter, nutella and speculoos spread . I am not sure about the peanut butter, but it might be vegan. The speculoos spread is surely vegan 🙂
Type of place: bagel/take-out
Completely vegan: no
Vegan desserts: yes

Wild Spark
The ride is a sparkling jump attraction for family and it's equipped with an original pneumatic system coming from Spain, the country where the best Saltamontes come from. We reinterpreted the seat concept offering two options: classical seats with mechanical locked safety bar or individual shoulder restrains equipped with oil pneumatic safety cylinders.
The ride is available in two versions:
- 14 arms x 3 seats (42 passengers) ride
- 8 arms x 3 seats (24 passengers) ride
It is absolutely a family ride designed to be the best ride of this category.
Technical Park has also designed an unconventional new restraint system for single patron containment: more comfortable, fitting for a larger number of people (corpulent adults, children, etc.) and allowing a greater freedom of movement for passengers. The riders of a Saltamontes ride need to feel close each other and almost free, so that the thrills experienced on board can be full. This system achieve this result under conditions of perfectly equal security like for the regular over-the-shoulder restraints.

October 1, 2017 – This weekend, my friend and I decided to head down to the Fort Ancient Earthworks and Museum in Oregonia, Ohio to continue our exploration of ancient Ohio sites.
Fort Ancient is a bit different from the mounds in Licking County and Chillicothe. This site is two large plateaus surrounded by earthen "walls". The walls are mounds of varying heights that seem to follow the contour of the flat hill top. Two sections were joined together by a "causeway" to form a continuous space. Inside the walls you'll find several ditches as well as other mounds and earth works.
The use of the site is unknown. But with 67 gateway openings in the wall, no evidence of other fortifications, and evidence that suggests only a small number of people lived there; it is unlikely that this site was actually a fort.
The Ancient Ohio Trail page has a nice PDF detailing this site, as well as several others, if you'd like more detail than I provided.
Getting There
Ever drive Interstate 71 between Columbus & Cincinnati? You know that long, very high, super scary bridge you go over? Fort Ancient is down at the bottom of that. IMPORTANT: If you are traveling with a large vehicle or a trailer (i.e. a camper of some sort), you need to plan your route carefully. Don't just rely on your GPS. State Route 350 just west of Fort Ancient has a hairpin turn that is IMPASSIBLE to large vehicles. Even in a small car it is a bit harrowing. PAY ATTENTION through there.
Now that you've been warned, you can use Google to go here. The site is pretty well marked from I71.
Fort Ancient's hours feel a bit random, so check their site before you go. They are only open weekends from November – March and closed on Tuesdays year round. Admission is $7 for adults/$6 for kids/6 and under is free. If you are an OHC member, it's free.
The Museum
Your visit will start in the museum. If you are collecting passport stamps, don't forget to stop at the desk and getcha one (or pickup a passport here and start collecting.)
The first half of the museum is about the mound building cultures of Ohio. There are a number of dioramas of ancient Ohio life as well as displays of artifacts and other information. If you've not been to any of the mound sites yet, take some time to read here. We have been to a number of sites now, so the information is a bit repetitive. You can even watch the guy knap flint from the Flint Ridge site.
The second half talks about the second wave of native people coming through the area. There is information on the French & Indian war, Ohio Indian wars, and the Iroquois Confederacy.
To the left of the front desk, there is an education/exploration area. If you have smaller kids they may enjoy this section. There are a couple of doors that lead you outside to a display of various dwellings and gardens. When you go outside, come back in the door you went out or you'll end up in a whole different area of the museum and have to go back through the maze.
Exploring & Hiking
After leaving the museum, take some time to explore the mounds and hiking trails outside. We stayed south of the museum, but there are a few mounds on the north side of SR 350.
When you walk out of the museum, go to your right and follow the sidewalk around the building. You will see a small, stone covered mound and a sign for the Stone Circle Trail. This short trail takes you through the woods and past several stone circles (as the name would imply).
The stone covered mound is labeled "Calendar Marking Mound". There are 4 similar mounds that make a large perfect square. There is evidence that large fires were burned on top of these mounds. The alignment of the mounds and openings in the wall also line up with various astronomical events (Solstices, moon risings).
Source: http://ancientohiotrail.org/sites/fort-ancient see the "Four Square" section
Following the Stone Circle Trail, you will come across the Mills Mound (a reconstructed mound) and several stone circles. This short hike (about 1/4 mile) will then bring you out to the paved drive. It is about a half mile down to the next parking area in the south section.
As you walk along the roadway, you will have nice views of the walls and openings as they come closer together along the connecting section. About half way through you will walk between two crescent mounds and then you will see the larger mounds of the Great Gateway ahead of you. Coming through the Great Gateway there is a sign that explains what this area may have looked like when the site was in use.
Just past the Great Gateway is a marker for the Earthworks Trail. This mile loop follows the perimeter of the site and offers access t
o two overlooks. We decided to take this route so that we could see more of the wall area.
About 1/3 of a mile or so along the trail, follow the opening to the right to the north overlook. This wooded platform gives you a nice view of the valley and the big scary bridge on 71. From here you can follow the connector trail down to the Little Miami Scenic Bike Trail. This section is quite steep and has a lot of stairs.
Coming back out of the opening, the continuation of the Earthworks Trail was difficult to find. Hug the tree line and you'll come to it. Following the trail some more, you'll come to the trail head for the Eagles Trail which doubles back and goes below the North Overlook to the connector trail. Stay to the left and follow the sign for the Earthworks Trail. Eventually you'll come to the South Overlook and then back out into the south parking lot.
We decided we'd had enough fun and were getting hungry, so we called it a day. There are several other features which we did not explore. We will save those for the next time.
Surrounding Area
Just down from Fort Ancient is Morgan's Canoe Livery. I've heard good things about this company and their camping. We have it on our list to check out.
The Little Miami Scenic Bike Trail has access to the site if you want to come in that way.
We went into Lebanon, about 15 minutes from Fort Ancient, to find some food and then head on home. There were several options for food here. We decided on a Acapulco Mexican Restaurant and enjoyed a late lunch with a couple of beers (apparently they do not sell liquor on Sundays in Lebanon, otherwise we'd have enjoyed a couple of margaritas). The salsa was amazing!
Until the next adventure…

Michel Foucault taught seminars at the College de France from January 1971 until his death in June 1984 under the title "The History of Systems of Thought". This edition based on the words delivered in public by Foucault covers the period between November 1973 and February 1974. Even though both his books and courses share certain themes, the lectures arise from a specific discursive regime within the set of Foucault's philosophical activities. In these lectures he sets out the program for a genealogy of psychiatry, of its characteristic knowledge/power relations. Thus, Psychiatric Power pursues the history started with Madness and Civilization which undertook the archaeology of the division between the insane and the sane in Western society.
In order to give an account of this form of psychiatric and medical knowledge about madness, one must start with an analysis of the apparatuses and the techniques of power that organized the treatment of the mad in the period that spans from Philippe Pinel to Jean-Martin Charcot. Psychiatry is not born as a consequence of progress in the knowledge of madness but from the disciplinary apparatuses within which the regime imposed on madness is organized. From this point of view, Psychiatric Power continues the project of a history of human sciences.
Michel Foucault's central contribution to political philosophy was his progressive development and refinement of a new conception of power, one that put into question the two reigning conceptions of power, the juridical conception found in classical liberal theories and the Marxist conception organized around the notions of State apparatus, dominant class, mechanisms of conservation and juridical superstructure. At the beginning of the chapter "Method" in the History of Sexuality Foucault warns his readers against several misunderstandings that may be occasioned by the use of the word "power" such as the identity, the form and the unity of power. Without having yet developed all of the tools of his own analysis, Psychiatric Power already exhibits Foucault's awareness of the shortcomings of available conceptions of power, and nowhere more clearly than in his own critique of notions implicit or explicit in his Psychiatric Power Foucault's dissatisfaction with his previous analysis of asylum power centers around two basic features of the analysis in History of Sexuality: first, the privileged role he gave to the "perception of madness" instead of starting, as he does in Psychiatric Power, from an apparatus of power itself; second, the use of notions that now seem to him to be "rusty locks with which we cannot get very far" and that therefore compromise his analysis of power as it is articulated in Psychiatric Power (p. 13-14).
As it is evident in one of the first theoretical claims about power that Foucault makes in Psychiatric Power, despite its apparent simplicity, already requires an entire reelaboration of our conception of power: "… power is never something that someone possesses, any more than it is something that emanates from someone. Power does not belong to anyone or even to a group; there is only power because there is dispersion, relays, networks, reciprocal supports, differences of potential, discrepancies, etc. It is in this system of differences, which have to be analyzed, that power can begin to function" (p. 4).
This claim is the basis of Foucault's later insistence on the relational character of power and of relationships of resistance that Foucault uses to give his extraordinary historical reinterpretation of the problem of hysteria at the conclusion of Psychiatric Power. When in the final part of his lecture of February 6 Foucault takes up Charcot's treatment of hysterics and what he names "the great maneuvers of hysteria", he announces the angle of analysis he will adopt: "I will not try to analyze this in terms of the history of hysterics any more than in terms of psychiatric knowledge of hysterics, but rather in terms of battle, confrontation, reciprocal encirclement, of the laying of mirror traps, of investment and counter-investment, of struggle for control between doctors and hysterics" (p. 308). To take just one example, Foucault's analytics restores this relational dimension of battle to the great problem of simulation not as a pathological phenomenon, but as a phenomenon of struggle. As a result, from this point of view, hysterical simulation becomes "the militant underside of psychiatric power" and the hysterics can be seen as "the true militants of antipsychiatry" (p. 138 & p. 254).
Moreover, the elaboration of this microphysics of power does not require Foucault to ignore the epistemological dimensions of the history of psychiatry, the discursive practices of psychiatric knowledge. On the contrary, it allows him to place these practices within a political history of truth, to reconnect these practices to the functioning of an apparatus of power, to link them to a level "that would allow discursive practice to be grasped at precisely the point where it is formed" (p. 13). Thus, Psychiatric Power can be read as a kind of experiment in method, one that responds in historical detail to a set of questions that permeated the genealogical period of Foucault's work.
At the very end of his course, when Foucault returns to the relations of power between hysteric and doctor, to hysterical resistance to medical power, the scene of sexuality is center stage. And Foucault draws the remarkable conclusion that "this sexuality is not an indecipherable remainder but the hysteric's victory cry, the last maneuver by which they finally get the better of the neurologists and silence them" (p.322). But, in the final diagnosis, this great pleasure of hysteric's victory becomes the great misfortune of our subjection to the apparatus of sexuality. And Foucault focuses our attention on that moving stratum of force relations that underlies the instability, of relations of power/resistance.
What brought the problem of psychiatric power to the fore no doubt involved the conjunction of two elements: one specific to the conceptual dynamic of Foucault's research and the other arising from the conjuncture of the 1970's. The first lecture envisioned taking as a starting point the present situation of psychiatry in the light of the contribution of antipsychiatry to a reorientation of questions around the "power relations" that conditioned how the asylum institution functioned and governed the forms of medical intervention, and proceeding to a retrospective analysis, starting from the present, of the historical formation of this apparatus of power. This is what gives this way of writing the history of psychiatry its specificity.
The course concludes at the end of the nineteenth century at the moment of the double "depsychiatrization" of madness, now dispersed between the neurologist and the psychoanalyst. Taken in its entirety, Psychiatric Power goes so far as to propose a genealogy of the antipsychiatric movements which so marked the 1960's. Since this is an open public seminars of Foucault, it is accessible to lay people as well as to academics and students of psychology, psychiatry, philosophy, social and political sciences and history. I believe, this book provides an extremely useful framework for anyone who is interested in doing some future analytic work on Foucault and also in history of psychiatry.

Interview with Lolita Va Voom and Viva Lamore – The Hunger Moon
On this weeks Friday you can experience the unique and surprising show The Hunger Moon presented by Lolita Va Voom and Viva Lamore in the Freudenzimmer Berlin. Burlesque, Vaudeville, Dinner and much more are waiting for you to spend an unforgettable night with The Full Moon Cabaret.
We are happy to announce that we managed to get an interview with two of the most outstanding and interesting burlesque artists here in Berlin, Lolita Va Voom und Viva Lamore, as an exciting appetizer for what their show will be about. Have fun reading the interview!
indieberlin: So what's the Full Moon Cabaret? How is it different than other cabarets in Berlin?
Viva: The Full Moon Cabaret is an immersive art party that happens every full moon with burlesque, varieté, live music, and theater. It's inspired by the Full Moon Show in New York City, where I'm from. You've probably never heard of Tom Murrin but he was a beautiful personality who's very missed in downtown New York; a generous bighearted spirit that resulted in this amazing meshuganah of a show that ran from the 1970s until the 2000s. All kinds of things happened at the Full Moon Show, from contemporary dance to stand-up comedy to experimental music to theatrical happenings. So in the spirit of Tom Murrin, the Full Moon Cabaret likes to mix things up: high brow with low brow, but never middle brow. There's usually a burlesque dancer or two, but you might also see an opera singer, or a human blockhead. This month, there's a butoh dancer and a blues singer. And each Cabaret features a wacky little theater piece, private shows with a couple of Art Prostitutes, and a mooning contest where the audience can win a bottle of moonshine by baring their derriere.
Indieberlin: Why Hunger Moon?
Viva: The Native Americans had a name for every full moon. We use this to build a theme. I think Hunger Moon comes from the Northeastern tribes. It made me think of Food Porn and all the wild and wacky things you can do around that theme.

Indieberlin: What food-related performances can we expect on the night?
Lolita: We don't want to give too much away, but our spectacular headliner is an absolute DISH! Coming all the way from NYC, Hazel Honeysuckle is one of the top classic burlesque dancers in the world. She's also a gorgeous pinup model and makes all of her own costumes. This will be her only Berlin appearance this year.
Indieberlin: Viva, according to your interview in Berlin Loves You, you're a 75-year old gay man. How does that work for you when doing burlesque?
Viva: Shhh, that's supposed to be a secret. I take my viagra. I dust that picture in the attic every so often.
Indieberlin: Why Berlin? What brought you here?
Lolita: I was trained as a professional ballerina in the USA. I got tired of it, as it isn't a sustainable lifestyle. I wanted to go somewhere free, artistic… and cheap! So, Berlin it was. The history of cabaret and subversion in the city really drew me here, as well as the city's historic embrace of all things weird.
Viva: I came here accidentally. It's not easy to convince a dyed-in-the-wool New Yawker to leave the dirty sidewalks of home. But after I was evicted from the apartment that I had lived in since I was 18, I couldn't make things work in New York. I mean, the reason why New York was the leading edge of culture for a hundred years was because an artist could survive okay working 3-4 days a week. And because you're on a narrow island, everyone knows everyone, so for artists, it's incredibly fertile and inspiring. But now, forget it. Everyone is working three jobs trying to pay over $1,000 in rent and no one has time to meet anyone or see anything or make anything. After losing my apartment, I tried for three years before throwing in the towel and moving to London. And I was in London for two months when my documentary was accepted to a film festival in Switzerland. Of course, I went. But I when I tried to return to London, I was denied entry. I drifted around France for a month and didn't want to go back to New York, so I came to Berlin.
From New York to Europe – a successful journey made by accident
Indieberlin: Two things that you miss about home.
Lolita: I'm from Seattle, I definitely miss the seafood and the water. You don't realize how lucky you are to live by a giant body of water until it's gone… the Spree isn't exactly what I'd call scenic.
Viva: The beautiful community of New Yorkers. At least that's the New York that I miss; the New York I grew up in. You know everyone in your building. The guy at the bodega will pass along your keys to a friend. The row people sitting across from you on the subway are an old Chinese grandma, two black homeboys, a dusty Polish construction worker, a Muslim schoolgirl, and a young Dominican couple with a big eyed baby. And if someone gets up in the face of the Chinese grandma, they'll all stand up for her. Anyone who's ever experienced the level of community in New York City tries to recreate it their whole lives.
New York City is another level of community
And I miss the amazing level of artists. That you can find hundreds of actors and writers and dancers and musicians who really have astounding insights about how we live or what's going on right now Or they give you startling new ways to think about movement or language or beauty or form. Art matters in New York. Art is the future.
Indieberlin: Two things you don't miss about home.
Lolita: The high rents and bad public transit.
Viva: The ridiculous struggle of trying to pay more than $1,000 in rent. Everyone in NYC is a nervous wreck of a hustler. They're juggling six balls while trying to eat a sandwich and sing a cheery song and tap dance on a narrow plank above a sea of hungry sharks. When you leave New York, you have PTSD for months.
And I'm thrilled not to be creeping past garbage cans at night. I swear the narrow 19th century streets of downtown NYC can't cope with the number of restaurants that have mushroomed in the past 10 years. Every freaking garbage can at night is alive with squeaking and rustling. If you're not careful, you spook a hundred rats and they make a beeline to the gutter over your shoes.
Indieberlin: Two things you get in Berlin that you don't get at home.
Lolita: Like I was saying before, I just love the fact that the city embraces the alternative. I can walk down the street in full drag (wearing all of my stage makeup), and besides the typical German staring nobody says a word! I think it's a really special thing that you can be whoever you want whenever you want here. I also think the Darth Vader that walks around by the Brandenburger Tor is pretty great.
You can be whoever you want whenever you want in Berlin
Viva: I was born in NYC and I've never really lived anywhere else. So Berlin is a real adjustment for me. Here, you have all the space and enough time to practice your art, but there's absolutely no financial or commercial incentrive. So you have to learn to put fire under your own butt. And I guess what I find most valuable here is the opportunity to rediscover why I do all the weird and wacky shit that I do.
Indieberlin: You talk of food art. Tell us a little something about the 8 course banquet planned for the night.
It's not food it's storytelling through food
Viva: We're thrilled to be collaborating with Inés Lauber. She's not really a caterer, more an artist who works with food. The first thing she told me when we met was that she likes to tell a story through food. This totally fits with how I saw the evening. There are eight courses and each one is a different way in which we relate to food. Food as ritual, food as sacrifice, food as celebration, food as comfort. Interestingly, art is all these things too. So we're not just going to slap food on a plate and give it to you. There will be a real presentation in all the courses, and by that I don't mean a teeny weeny hill of an unknown edible substance on a giant platter. It's a sumptuous banquet and everything will be lavish, down to antique china plates and silver-plated forks.
Indieberlin: You've said "a lot of problems can be solved if people just got together and had desserts. Or better yet, if they baked a cake together. And then smeared it on each other's bodies and licked it off." Is this the kind of thing we can look forward to at the Hunger Moon?
Lolita: No spoilers!! You'll have to buy a ticket to find out.
Viva: There are lots of ways to have your cake and eat it too.
Indieberlin: Do you think world peace could be finally achieved with cake?
Lolita: If everyone had the exact kind of cake they wanted exactly when they wanted, I truly believe that. And that's not a metaphor. Give me some funfetti right now.
Indieberlin: Where can we get tickets?
Viva: Advance tickets are available at ticketor Banquet seats are only available in advance and almost sold out but there are still a lot of Gallery seats. You won't get to eat with Gallery seats but you're definitely part of the action. You can also get Gallery seats at the door.
Indieberlin: What has no one ever asked you, but you always wished someone would?
Lolita: How do you get the glitter off your laminate flooring? (I don't know.)
Viva: A serious interview question? (Is that too bitchy?) (Is that two questions?)
Thanks to Lolita Va Voom and Viva Lamore for the interview!
