Jon Walsh

Jon has been putting up new climbs in Canada and abroad, for the better part of the last decade.  An insatiable appetite for exploring steep mountains, with either skis, rock shoes or crampons on, has helped him accumulate dozens of first ascents and wild adventures in many corners of the globe.  He always pursues alpine style, light and fast free climbing, the steeper and more technical the better.  Besides "big game" hunting in hills, he enjoys margaritas, fine scotch, living in the moment, living close to the edge, and laughing with his friends who know him as Jonny Red - often abbreviated to JR.  When not in the alpine, Jon finds that training outdoors on skis, mountain-bikes, rock climbs, frozen waterfalls or anything fun is obligatory, as many days a week as possible, and even bad conditions can be surprisingly enjoyable, i.e. "It doesn't have to be fun to be fun."  Attitude is everything.

Jon has lived in several B.C. mountains towns since 1992, but has called Golden home since 1999.  His three favorite ranges are at his doorstep: the Rockies, the Purcells, and the Selkirks, and he makes a living mainly as a finish carpenter and part time photographer.  "There's so much to do here locally in the mountains, that there's really no need to get on airplane.  However, foreign travel has taught me so much about the potential that exists in my "backyard", and enabled me to see lines and conceive ideas that might have otherwise been missed."

In the past twelve years, Jon has travelled extensively in pursuit of alpinism including five trips to Chamonix, three to Alaska, three to Patagonia, two to the Himalayas, and one to Baffin Island.  Some of his most memorable and highly recommended alpine climbs include: The north face of Mt. Alberta (Rockies); Dirty Love on Mt. Wilson (Rockies); The Wild Thing on Mt. Chephren (Rockies) The East Face of Mt. Asgard (Baffin Island); Sendero Norte (Bugaboos); and Cerro Fitz Roy by either the Cassarotto Pillar or the Canadian Route (Patagonia).  Favorite rock climbing ares include: Ceuse, France; Rodellar, Spain; Taghia Gorge, Morocco; Yosemite Valley, California; and The Bugaboos which remain the favorite "backyard" zone to session in. He looks forward to many more trips and expeditions in the near future.

Company wants to make Au Gres ‘cracker capitol of Michigan’

Au GRES — The company Allied Biscuit plans on making Au Gres the cracker capitol of Michigan.

The company intends on opening a cracker factory in the city’s industrial park to produce gourmet goods to be sold in Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, and parts of Ontario. Company representative Caleb Hawke said the company has made similar declarations in towns in Georgia, Missouri, and Tennessee, and wants to do the same here.

“In Michigan, you have places like Pinconning that are known for cheese, or Traverse City for wine, or Mackinac Island for fudge,” Hawke said. “We want to see the same level of notoriety bestowed upon Au Gres for crackers.”

The company will be pursuing the proper permits to begin construction on its facility within weeks, Hawke said, with an eye toward completion by next January. Allied Biscuit may also seek out a tax abatement for its property through the city and state so it can utilize more money for its investment.

Once completed, Hawke said the company would like to host tours to the public so they could see how crackers are made, packaged, and sent out to distributors. There will also be a cracker tasting room, where visitors can try out some specialty types such as rice crackers, matzah, pretzels, and a new type flavored like walleye.

“The boys in the lab are really proud of this one,” he said. “They’ve managed to make a snack food that has all the health benefits, shelf life, and texture of a cracker, but tastes like a fish!”

The reason for opening a factory in the city is because it is near the Great Lakes, as well as a large number of farmers who can provide the factory with fresh grain.

“Plus, with Civil War re-enactors in the area, they may want to have some authentic hardtack to eat, and we make the best,” Hawke said.

“We think Au Gres best represents our company’s future as it expands into the Midwest,” Allied Biscuit President John Castle said in a statement.

Hawke said he would like to see a weekend-long “French pride festival” take place in Au Gres once the factory is completed, featuring local wine, cheese and crackers. Since the city was initially named by French explorers, he said it seemed like a fitting combination.

“We’re picturing the city streets decked out with the red, white and blue of the French flag, with little Eiffel Towers and other symbols emblematic of the country best known for the wine, cheese and cracker combination,” Hawke said. “French trappers and traders were a major part of Michigan’s early colonial history, and we think they should be celebrated.”

Have a happy April Fool’s Day from us here at the Arenac County Independent!

Field Day scoring question W4HH on 1/6/12
I plan to operate Field Day QRP battery-powered, battery charged by a solar panel, no commercial mains used at any time (battery has never been charged off commercial mains). Everything will run off the battery -- rig; small lamp as needed; no computer, will log by hand. The rig is a K2 at 5 watts.

As I read the FD rules, I will be Class B-Battery. My exchange should be "B VA" (Class B, Virginia). I assume there's a place on the log submission to indicate B-Battery when I submit my log.

My question is about multiplier and bonus points.

FD rules paragraph 7.2.1 says, if your power is 5 watts or less, multiply your score by 5. I get the 5X multiplier.

I'm confused by paragraphs 7.3.1 and 7.3.

-- Paragraph 7.3.1: If all your transmitters are powered by something other than commercial mains, add 100 points per transmitter up to a max of 20 xmtrs. I'll have one xmtr.
-- Paragraph 7.3.8: This awards another 100 points for "alternative power."

Does this mean I get 200 bonus points -- all transmitters powered by emergency power, AND, 100 points for "alternative power?"

Or, do I get only one 100 point bonus for "alternative power?"

    Steven Spielberg and DreamWorks get "Shell" Shocked - Another Japanese becomes Hollywood

    Steven Spielberg Videos

    more steven spielberg videos »

    Another day, another Japanese work of art getting the Hollywood treatment. While many studios and directors have been remaking Japanese horror films, like The Grudge and The Eye, leave it to DreamWorks guru Steven Spielberg to twist the formula a bit. Spielberg's DreamWorks has obtained the rights to Masamune Shirow's Japanese magna Ghost in the Shell. Word is, Spielberg, one of the most commercially successful and critically beloved directors in Tinseltown's history, expressed a distinct personal interest in obtaining this piece of intellectual property and that was what helped DW seal the deal in acquiring the rights.

    DW will develop the graphic novel into a live action feature film. The futuristic story revolves around a member of the covert ops unit of the Japanese National Public Safety Commission specializing in technology related crimes. Ghost in the Shell has spawned a bit of a cottage industry, complete with two additional magna editions, video games and an anime TV series. It's about time a feature-length film has been added to this franchise's arsenal.

Every part You Ever Needed To Know

If you are curious and seriously eager to own and open your own on-line newspaper, then spare your self some 10-15 minute to diligently read by way of this guideline and discover ways to create and launch a successful news web site and weblog.

I’m a 31 yrs. old, and I went for my scan at 12wks 4days. The nuchal translucency was three.5mm. I was informed that I’ve a seventy five% probability that there shall be a chromosomal drawback with the infant. I then went for a CVS, and nonetheless awaiting the outcomes. The waiting is totally killing me. I’m so nervous. I have not been capable of inform anybody as a result of I am unable to even discuss it. This web site was actually useful, I just wished to know what my odds are. I will probably be conserving all of you in my thoughts, want me luck!

I can not inform you how pleased I’m I found this page! I had a 2.8 reading on considered one of my twin fetuses and am getting in for a sixteen week scan and eco thurs and am very nervous. The thing is, I do not need an amnio..risk of miscarriage for twins is three.4% with amnio which is means greater than my mixed threat proper now. But all these explanations of why an NT will be higher than normal that have nothing to do with abnormalities is just really reassuring.

The setup! Ugh this was horribly slow, due to the watch 2.zero update taking so long to install. It took more than 3 hours to get this updated, with a number of annoying messages along the way. Didn’t download, error you would not have sufficient reminiscence for is installation, and so forth. none the less I bought it going. Subsequent I had a problem with iMessage as a result of I used to be not on 9.zero.2 on the time when I received mine, because it was not out yet. I spent four hours on the Apple Retailer messing with it, and the reps were clueless.

From about 28 million years in the past to about three million years in the past the earth had a bizarre climatic system. In the southern hemisphere the climate system modified to resemble the present system: Ice covered pole, large seasonality in the mid latitudes and a three cell system for atmospheric circulation (an equatorial cell, mid latitude cell and a polar cell.) But the northern hemisphere was caught in an older climatic sample: ice free pole, low seasonality within the mid latitudes and a single atmospheric cell that prolonged from the equator to the north pole. We could also be returning to that sort of local weather system.

Which thermodynamic properties are going to change, when two pure components are mixed to form an ideal solution ?

4 years ago

Answers : (1)

Aman Bansal
592 Points

Dear Samrat,

The solutions which obey Raoult’s law over the entire range of concentration are known as ideal solutions. The ideal solutions have two other important properties. The enthalpy of mixing of the pure components to form the solution is zero and the volume of mixing is also zero, i.e.,
ΔmixH = 0, ΔmixV = 0…………

It means that no heat is absorbed or evolved when the components are mixed. Also, the volume of solution would be equal to the sum of volumes of the two components. At molecular level, ideal behaviour of the solutions can be explained by considering two components A and B. In pure components, the intermolecular attractive interactions will be of types A-A and B-B, whereas in the binary solutions in addition to these two interactions, A-B type of interactions will also be present.

If the intermolecular attractive forces between the A-A and B-B are nearly equal to those between A-B, this leads to the formation of ideal solution. A perfectly ideal solution is rare but some solutions are nearly ideal in behaviour. Solution of n-hexane and n-heptane, bromoethane and chloroethane, benzene and toluene, etc. fall into this category.

      30 Weird Recipes

      Like hot dog salad dressing, the rest of these recipes will all be from old cookbooks. It seems that people in the ‘50s, ’60s and ‘70s were not very concerned about health. But they were very concerned with using gelatin to make food into weird shapes. Just check out these corn and Jell-O cones for an example of this nonsensical fad.

The Birthday Gift

© 2003 by Girl Friday

Mitch was tired. Work had been a long, miserable grind of one emergency after another. What he really wanted, more than anything, was a quiet night in front of the fire. A beer, his favorite book, a warm, glowing fire; yes, that was exactly what he wanted. He knew it was a lost cause. Tonight was Halloween.

He opened his front door and stepped into his small, cozy house. He had worked hard to restore the Craftsman-style bungalow to its original beauty and he took quiet satisfaction in his accomplishment. Dropping his keys and the mail on the coffee table, Mitch spied the large bowl of candy sitting on the kitchen counter. Trick-or-treat was due to start in just a few minutes. He sighed and grabbed a slice of pizza from the fridge.

'Chinese food,' he thought, 'would go nicely with a beer in front of the fire.' Mitch shook his head in regret; that little dream just wasn't in the cards for tonight. He turned on his computer, finishing off the pizza while it booted up. Mitch opened his messenger program, hoping to see his best buddy online. He enjoyed chatting with her and knew she would be good company between trick-or-treaters. Damn, Mitch swore silently, she wasn't there. Hoping she might show up later, Mitch left the program running as he answered the door for the first of the kids begging candy.

Two hours later, he turned off the porch light. The children had been adorable, but he was glad it was over. He was completely out of candy, not even a small bag of his favorite M&Ms were left. Checking his IM program one last time, Mitch closed it down. His friend had not shown up. He could have used her company, especially tonight. He sent her a quick email, just to say hello, before shutting the computer down.

Just as the computer's power light blinked off, the doorbell rang. Irritated at yet another intrusion, Mitch yanked the door open. He blinked in surprise at the vision that greeted him. The woman standing in front of him was, in a word, stunning. Her gauzy, semi-transparent dress covered her completely but left nothing to his imagination. A large pair of silver feathered wings swayed gently with her every movement. She carried a large paper bag and grinned at him mischievously.

"May I come in? The food's getting cold."

Entranced with her smooth, mellow voice, Mitch moved aside to let her enter.

"Do I know you?" he asked as she came through the door.

"Silly, of course you do." She touched his face gently. "I'm your birthday gift."

"My birthday gift? No one knows it's my birthday."

"Obviously someone does. Now, why don't you build a fire while I unpack dinner?"

Mitch went to the fireplace, never taking his eyes off the woman unpacking cartons of Chinese food and his favorite beer. He managed to get the fire started without burning himself, but it was a very near thing. A dozen different questions confusing his thoughts, he blurted out the first one that came to mind.

"What's your name?"

"Angel, of course. Come eat before it gets cold."

Mitch sat down on the sofa. Angel, he mused, it certainly suited her. She continued to fuss with the food until it was arranged exactly right, then handed Mitch a beer. She tried to sit on the sofa next to him but the large wings made it impossible.

"Do you mind if I get comfortable?"

His thoughts whirled with the implications of that question as Mitch quickly consented. Angel reached around to her back and did something he couldn't see. Stunned, he watched as the wings came free. She placed them carefully on the floor, away from the fire.

"They're removable?"

Her soft laugh warmed his soul more than the fire ever would.

"You wouldn't believe what I had to go through to get those wings. After all that, I made darn sure they were removable. As nice as wings are, they aren't always convenient."

Nodding as though this were an everyday occurrence, Mitch reached for his beer and downed a large gulp. 'I'm dreaming', he thought. 'I've fallen asleep in front of the fire and I'm dreaming.' It was the only explanation he could come up with that made any sense. Intoxicated by the scent of Kung Pow Chicken and Angel's light fragrance, Mitch answered her questions about his day. The conversation flowed between them as they shared the impromptu meal.

Cleaning up the remains took only moments. Mitch carried the leftovers out to the kitchen while Angel moved the coffee table aside and tossed the couch pillows on the floor. He returned to find her arranged comfortably in front of the fire, her hair and skin glowing with its flickering light. Silently she motioned him over and Mitch went to lie beside her.

They lay there for a long time, watching the dancing flames and talking softly. Mitch stroked her hair gently, savoring the feel of her silken curls flowing through his fingers. Angel raised her lips to his and he captured them in a soft, tender kiss that quickly gained heat. She moved against him, her breasts pressing into his chest, as she deepened their kiss. Mitch's body responded to feel of her in his arms, his penis stiffening uncomfortably in his jeans. 'Happy birthday to me', he thought as he covered her body with his own.

Mitch woke the next morning, naked except for the soft, warm blanket that covered him. Angel was nowhere to be found. He searched every room of the house looking for her. Was it a dream? 'No', he thought, 'it couldn't have been.' He could still feel her skin against his; hear her soft moan as he sank himself into her. Mitch remembered the way she had bitten his shoulder as her orgasm surged through her, the pain of it triggering his own climax. He rushed to the bathroom and examined his shoulder in the mirror. Yes, there was a distinct mark where she had bitten him; proof he was not losing his mind. Mitch ran his fingertips over her mark and smiled.

After showering and dressing for work, he grabbed a cup of coffee and turned on his computer. There was an email from his friend.

I'm sorry I wasn't online last night. I spent Halloween with someone special.

I'll talk with you tonight.

PS Open the box

Mitch glanced down to find a white box sitting next to his computer, a pretty blue bow holding it closed. He slipped the bow from the box and opened it. It was filled with hundreds of brightly colored M&Ms, a beautiful silver feather, and a small card. He touched the feather gently as he remembered the wings Angel had worn. His breath caught in his chest as he read the simple card:

Dear Mitch,

I hope you enjoyed your birthday gift.

Mitch smiled. Her gift had been exactly what he wanted.

Generate INK presents "Grace & Igor

Arts & Theater Grace is beginning to experience the onset of a debilitating disorder. She's frightened and confused. As she loses control of her body, her sense of security falters and her relationships become strained. Through this choas, Grace finds solace in a budding friendship with Russian street performer and puppeteer, Igor. Her situation becomes more and more desperate until she finally decides to do the unthinkable. Told through traditional narrative, stylized movement, and audiovisual artworks (created by fine artist Kourtney Keller), Grace & Igor explores the experience of disorder and disease. Themes of disconnection from one's body, loss of control, and involuntary physical and mental exposure run strong throughout this one-act. (Cover Image by Clare Welsh)

Quartet of exoplanets locked in complex dance

The four planets of the Kepler-223 star system seem to have little in common with the planets of Earth’s own solar system. And yet a new study shows that the Kepler-223 system is trapped in an orbital configuration that Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune may have broken out of in the early history of the solar system.

All four of the puffy, gaseous planets are far more massive than Earth and orbit extremely close to their nearest star—closer than Mercury is to our sun. Their orbits also are locked together in a precise pattern, raising the question of whether the gas giants in our solar system somehow escaped a similar configuration in the distant past.

“Exactly how and where planets form is an outstanding question in planetary science,” said the study’s lead author, Sean Mills, a graduate student in astronomy & astrophysics at the University of Chicago. “Our work essentially tests a model for planet formation for a type of planet we don’t have in our solar system.”

Because the orbital configuration is so different than the one in our system, Mills said, there’s a big debate about how such planets form, how they got there and why Earth’s system turned out as it did.

Mills and his collaborators used brightness data from NASA’s Kepler telescope to analyze how the four planets block the starlight and change each other’s orbits, thus inferring the planets’ sizes and masses. The team performed numerical simulations of planetary migration that generate this system’s current architecture, similar to the migration suspected for the solar system’s gas giants. These calculations are described in the May 11 advance online edition of Nature.

These animations show approximately 200,000 years of orbital evolution in the Kepler-223 planetary system. The planets’ interactions with the disk of gas and dust in which they formed caused their orbits to shrink toward their star over time at differing rates. Once two planets reach a resonant state (for example, one planet orbits its star three times every time the next planet orbits two times), the planets strongly interact with each other. The interactions become apparent in the animations as the orbits shrink (left and top right) when the orbital period ratios of neighboring planets (bottom right) get stuck at constant values. Even as the planets continue moving inwards (upper right) they do so in concert, migrating together locked in this configuration. They also cause each other’s orbits to change from nearly circular to elliptical. This is represented by the varying orbits on the left panel and the spread of the orbital distances for each individual planet in the upper right. Credit: Daniel Fabrycky and Cezary Migazewski

The orbital configuration of the solar system seems to have evolved since its birth 4.6 billion years ago. The four known planets of the much older Kepler-223 system, however, have maintained one orbital configuration for far longer.

The planets of Kepler-223 are much larger than Earth, likely consisting of a solid core and an envelope of gas, and they orbit their star in periods ranging from only seven to 19 days. Astronomers call these planets sub-Neptunes. They are the most common type of planets known in the galaxy.

Kepler-223’s planets also are in resonance. Planets are in resonance when, for example, every time one of them orbits its sun once, the next one goes around twice. Jupiter’s moons, where the phenomenon was discovered, display resonance.

Kepler-223’s two innermost planets are in a 4:3 resonance. The second and third are in a 3:2 resonance, and the third and fourth are in a 4:3 resonance. Astronomers had seen extrasolar systems containing two or three planets in resonance, but not four.

“This is the most extreme example of this phenomenon,” said study co-author Daniel Fabrycky, an assistant professor of astronomy & astrophysics at UChicago.

Formation Scenarios

The Kepler-223 system provides alternative scenarios for how planets form and migrate in a planetary system that is different from our own, said study co-author Howard Isaacson, a research astronomer at the University of California, Berkeley, and member of the California Planet Search Team.

“Data from Kepler and the Keck Telescope were absolutely critical in this regard,” Isaacson said. Thanks to observations of Kepler-223 and other exoplanetary systems, “We now know of systems that are unlike the sun’s solar system, with hot Jupiters, planets closer than Mercury or in between the size of Earth and Neptune, none of which we see in our solar system. Other types of planets are very common.”

Some stages of planet formation can involve violent processes, but during other stages, planets can evolve from gaseous disks in a smooth, gentle way, which is probably what the sub-Neptune planets of Kepler-223 did, Mills said.

“We think that two planets migrate through this disk, get stuck and then keep migrating together; find a third planet, get stuck, migrate together; find a fourth planet and get stuck,” Mills explained.

That process differs completely from the one that scientists believe led to the formation of Earth, Mercury, Venus and Mars, which likely formed in their current orbital locations.

Earth formed from Mars- or moon-sized bodies smacking together, Mills said, a violent and chaotic process. When planets form this way their final orbital periods are not near a resonance.

Substantial Movement

But scientists suspect that the solar system’s larger, more distant planets of today—Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune—moved around substantially during their formation. They may have been knocked out of resonances that once resembled those of Kepler-223, possibly after interacting with numerous asteroids and small planets (planetesimals).

“These resonances are extremely fragile,” Fabrycky said. “If bodies were flying around and hitting each other, then they would have dislodged the planets from the resonance.” But Kepler-223’s planets somehow managed to dodge this scattering of cosmic bodies.

Other processes, including tidal forces that flex the planets, also might cause resonance separation.

“Many of the multi-planet systems may start out in a chain of resonances like this, fragile as it is, meaning that those chains usually break on long timescales similar to those inferred for the solar system,” Fabrycky said.

Mills and Fabrycky’s Berkeley collaborators were able to determine the size and mass of the star by making precise measurements of its light using the high-resolution Eschelle spectrometer on the 10-meter Keck I telescope atop Mauna Kea in Hawaii.

“The spectrum revealed a star very similar in size and mass to the sun but much older—more than six billion years old,” Isaacson said. “You need to know the precise size of the star so you can do the dynamical and stability analysis, which involve estimates of the masses of the planets.”

Khin Aung Aye

Mr. Charley, I Have Picked You

Mr. Charley,
I have picked you.

Let me say it again!
Mr. Charley,
I have picked you.

Hey, you!
Mr. Charley, my picked one,
Most of this depends on you.
It was an opportune moment to pick,
Now I realise
Have picked too much too.

Many of us anticipated your pick,
Now I know better.

Mr. Charley,
You learnt to be a wheeler-dealer,
Before you knew how to pick.
Are not a trained witch,
You were a witch in the womb,
My knowledge of you
Has become metal chunks.

Mr. Charley,
Metal chunks are beyond flesh and blood.
I have picked
What you have picked
And what you have perfumed.
Let me make myself clear,
Mr. Charley,
I have picked you.

Maung Chaw Nwe

Lullaby for a Night

His smile flashes like a pocketknife.

In the very first nook of my extending right hand
Cultures are forged...

You have pretended not
To notice my pretensions.

How revolting it is
To be sexy and brassy...

My cracked canticles shiver.

Here you go...
The generosity of my dead sobs
Until the shoulders of the night give in

I will pretend not to notice
Your pretensions.

An Evening With a City Girl

Evening still swelters
In the strides inside
The miniskirt of the city girl.

We have just gazed leisurely at
The statue of the street-smart lion
Who has gobbled up a jouncing
fish and stepped on the fishtail.
What a phiz!

She is concerned
With not having a seat
With not getting discounts
With being stepped on
With not having concerns
With the insecurity of a snake
Who has just shed her skin.

As for me
A starving tiger
A jilted tiger
A lonely tiger
I want to bite off and
Devour my own stripes
I have to conceal the sound of
My waggling tail.

She is
Tempted by
The vertical lines.
She couldn't fan her senses out
Towards the endless fields.

I am
Sighing heavy-heartedly
At the stretch of the horizontal lines.
I couldn't look up.

The bootlegged breeze in the pirated river
Brushed past our authentic imaginations.
A queue over there arouses her curiousness.
I, for one, fancy catching the waves
Reflected upon the leftover sunlight.

She is educated.
She small-talks about
The prospects of natural resources,
The mutually-beneficial aspects of
Human resources in migration.

I am civilized.
I discuss by-the-way
The fluid localism of languages
The potential advantages of centralization.

The evening is at peace with herself
She has had a gulp of her beer
I have had a bite of my pizza>
We never happened to include in our conversation
Those gangsters in Southeast Asia.

Snowman Pizza

Snow seams to be scarce here in the Atlanta area, so we have to enjoy snowmen however and whenever we can. Bubee LOVES pizza (and that is and understatement). We made some Snowman pizza this week and it was a big hit.

Pizza Crust
Pizza Sauce
Mozzarella Cheese
We used Pepperoni for buttons, Olives for eyes and mouth, and an orange pepper for the nose.

Using 2 batches of pizza crust make a snowman shape and bake according to directions (Pillsbury directions was to bake for 5 min before topping)

Decorate! We used the olives as coal eyes and mouth. An orange pepper as a 'carrot' nose. And Peperoni as buttons.

Bake till cheese is melted and enjoy!

Bubee had a blast. This turned a simple meal into some fun family time. Perfect for movie night.

Big Second Half Lifts Duquesne Past Saint Francis 86-66

Release: 12/08/2013

Courtesy: Atlantic 10 Conference

LORETTO, Pa. - Wumi Agunbiade recorded her second straight double-double with 14 points and a game-high 12 rebounds and Raegan Moore scored a team-best 20 points in the Duquesne women's basketball's 86-66 victory at Saint Francis on Sunday afternoon.

Belma Nurkic came off the bench to tie her season-high with 15 points and April Robinson added 15 and Orsi Szecsi 14 as the Dukes improve to 7-3 overall.

Stasia King scored a season-high seven points including a career-high five free throws.

Alli Williams scored a game-high 24 for the Red Flash who fall to 2-5 on the season.

After trailing 5-0 90 seconds into 1st half, the Dukes went on an 11-0 run over the next three minutes. As the half went back-and-forth, the Red Flash would answer with a 16-5 run to take their largest lead of the game - five points at 21-16 with 8:47 to play. The Dukes would hold SFU scoreless over the next four minutes as a Robinson layup regained the Duquesne lead at 22-21 at the 7:19 mark. They would hold the lead for the next three minutes and 54 seconds until Williams scored five straight points to put the Flash up 28-26 with 3:35 remaining in the half. A Szecsi layup followed by a pair of Moore free throws put the Dukes up 30-28 with 2:53 to play. SFU's Hope Phillips' layup closed out the scoring in the half with Duquesne leading 33-32.

With the Dukes leading 40-38 at the 16:52 mark of the 2nd half, Robinson's foul shot started a 26-2 run over the next 10 minutes in which six different players put points on the board to make the score 66-40. During the run, Robinson scored seven points, Szecsi added six and Nurkic scored five. The Duquesne lead would get as high as 26 points after a pair of Robinson foul shots made the score 73-47 with 5:06 remaining in the game.

"I was very happy with the way we played in the 2nd half," said head coach Dan Burt.

The Dukes outscored the Red Flash 53-34.

"April [Robinson] was the catalyst today. In addition to scoring in double-figures, she handled the ball extremely well. The same goes for Raegan [Moore]. She scored and protected the ball. "

The two guards combined for 35 points and only two turnovers in 65 minutes on the court.

This is the first of the "Big Four" rivalry games for the Dukes. Up next is Robert Morris 10 days from today on Dec. 18th at the Palumbo Center. Following the game against the Colonials, the Dukes will host West Virginia on Dec. 21st. The non-conference schedule ends after Christmas at the Petersen Events Center when Duquesne and Pitt face off in The City Game on Dec. 29th.

Japanese Cosmetics Focus: Fujifilm Astalift (with a Review of Regenerating Night Cream)

by PJ on Saturday, August 25, 2012

in _Japanese Brand Profile, -Astalift, all about Japanese cosmetics, all about Japanese cosmetics (overseas availability information), skincare, skincare - moisturizing/others

Fujifilm Astalift Regenerating Night Cream 2

Those in the UK who are fans of Japanese cosmetics might have noticed that Astalift had (somewhat quietly) been launched in the UK earlier this year. Today I am reviewing Astalift’s Regenerating Night Cream after an overview of the line.

Launched in Japan in 2007, Astalift (Japanese site here) is a premium beauty line developed and produced by the Beauty & Health Division of Fujifilm, which focuses on the research of antioxidation, collagen, and micronization technology. Currently, Astalift carries skincare and base makeup items, but, in the UK, only the skincare products are available. (Fujifilm also features two other skincare lines (Lunamer and Nanofilt) as well as a range of beauty supplements.)

Astalift’s feature ingredient is astaxanthin, which is an antioxidant. (It is listed on the ingredient lists of Astalift’s products as haematococcus pluvialis oil.) According to Fujifilm, astaxanthin as an antioxidant is more potent than vitamin E and coenzyme Q10.

One of Astalift’s star skincare items is Jelly Aquarysta, a treatment product with a jelly consistency used after cleansing and before* toning and moisturizing. (*This is according to Astalift’s Japanese website, which has a clear chart of the recommended skincare routine. The line’s UK website does not indicate exactly when to use this product.) After each use, the surface of the jelly in the pot evens itself out and becomes completely flat within a minute or two, which showcases Fujifilm’s micronization technology.

As for the base makeup products, the new Light Analyzing Melano-Retouch Concealer (SPF 30, PA++), launched in Japan on March 1st, has gathered tremendous popularity in a very short amount time and topped Cosme.Net’s Best Cosmetics (Concealer Category) for the first half of 2012. (The product is only available in one shade, which appears to suit most skin tones.)

In Asia, Astalift is available in Japan, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia, and Singapore. In Europe, apart from the UK, Astalift is (or will soon be) available in France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Italy, and Russia.

Fujifilm Astalift Regenerating Night Cream 1

Astalift Regenerating Night Cream (30g, £48) has a creamy and almost buttery consistency and it feels very emollient on the skin. Some of the moisturizing ingredients in this product are glycerin, hydrogenated polydecene, petrolatum, butylene glycol, maltitol, limnanthes alba (meadowfoam) seed oil, stearyl alcohol, glyceryl stearate, and hydrolyzed collagen.

(Note that, in skincare products, collagen functions as a moisturizing ingredient by being a water-binding agent. It does not have any efficacy in building collagen in the skin.)

The product contains antioxidants such as tocopherol (vitamin E), haematococcus pluvialis oil, anthemis nobilis (chamomile) flower oil, and artemia (a type of algae) extract. It contains stearyl glycyrrhetinate as an anti-irritant.

The product is alcohol-free. It contains fragrance (parfum) and no other scenting agents.

Overall, this generally well-formulated nighttime moisturizer should suit those with dry or very dry skin. Those with oilier skin types are very likely to find it to be too rich. I think this product could be even more beneficial for the skin if the concentration of antioxidants were higher. (Three of the four antioxidants in this product are listed in the second half of the ingredient list (after preservatives and fragrance).)

(Some ingredient information is from Paula Begoun’s Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary.)

Winter fairytale in the Czech Republic

Czech Republic | Why not try and experience a winter holiday in the Czech Republic. The ski regions of Jizera Mountains (Isergebirge), Beskidy Mountains and Kartonosze Mountains (Riesengebirge) all fulfil the requirements that one expects from a good winter day and eventful ski vacation. Especially families with small children will find these ski regions particularly ideal as the slopes are not overcrowded. Therefore the children will be able to easily find a secure place to ski and sledging. Popular ski regions include for example Harrachov and Spindlermühle (Špindlerův Mlýn) in the Kartonosze Mountains, Lipno Kramolin and Spicak in the Bohemian Forest or Novako Ski Center in the Ore Mountains.
If you are searching for a more challenging course then Harrachov will be to your liking. It is the heart of Czech ski sport and awaits with demanding slopes. Those who may be a bit more apprehensive can enjoy a lovely walk in the magical countryside. In the higher altitudes you will find perfect conditions with bright sunshine and chilly temperatures.
A conspicuous feature of holidays in the Czech Republic is that they are compared to other areas cheaper for things such as ski lessons and equipment as well as partying. This also applies to the rental prices for the majority of around 1,000 holiday houses and apartments that have an excellent price performance ratio. The holiday huts are basic but have all necessary amenities. Often they will also have a fireplace which provides the perfect conditions for a cosy evening after an eventful day.

Event Details

Christoph Eggner: Piano
Georg Eggner: Violin
Florian Eggner: Cello

Twenty years ago, in a tiny town in northern Austria notable only for housing the tomb of composer Anton Bruckner, a piano trio was formed. Its youngest member was just ten years old, and comprising three siblings, it was unlikely to survive a second winter.

The three brothers Eggner proved to be made of sterner stuff and the group continues to thrive in its adoptive home of Vienna. Violinist Georg says: “The focus of our trio has always been on the music, not on the fact that we are brothers. But it’s always there, and it’s good. We have the same language.”

The Australian connection began with three major prizes at the 2003 Melbourne International Chamber Music Competition, followed by acclaimed national concert tours for Musica Viva in 2005 and 2008, with rapt responses from audiences of the inaugural Musica Viva Festival. This time the Eggners present intriguing programs that combine classics by Haydn and Beethoven with less common Romantic fare by Saint-Saëns and Dvorák, as well as the delightful Tales of Old Russia by Featured Composer, Ian Munro.

“Haydn was very progressive for his time,” says Georg. “And that could be said of both the Romantic trios, too. Sometimes they sound quite modern.” Pianist Christoph adds: “What we wanted to show with these programs is the big variety, but also the common things you can find in each piece, although they come from completely different worlds.”

Featured non-Australian music: Dvorak, Beethoven

I had a little bit of difficulty with the initial download but the patient, friendly and knowledgeable operators are only a call away during business hours. The guy walked me through the entire process in no time. Installation wasn't too bad but they could use a better piggyback for the fuse. Buy one, you'll see. I erased the engine code caused periodically by my cold air intake, raised the speed limiter and raised my shift rpm's in minutes. I got T-boned that day so performance? Not sure yet.

Ron Gettelfinger has been in the United Auto Workers for 44 years, the last eight of those years in the role of president. He's taken his share of lumps from the people he faced across the table and his own constituents, but he's led the UAW through some of the toughest years its faced in a decades, summed up by his quote, "We did what we had to do to get to tomorrow." And now he's out, with his chosen successor, Bob King, voted in by a landslide to replace him.

The UAW ain't what it used to be. The organized labor outfit has seen membership fall off over the past ten years, and as a result, it's cutting staff at both its domestic and international headquarters. Last year's membership figures were pegged at a little more than 355,000 workers – down from over 700,000 in 2000, and a fraction of the 1.5 million members the UAW boasted in the mid '70s. To cope with the resultant dip in cash flow, the union has nixed around 130 positions overseas and s

Yesterday, Toyota and Tesla announced that the two companies would be collaborating on electric vehicle development. Tesla will be taking over the NUMMI factory in Fremont, California, which was recently closed. Now, the United Auto Workers is urging Toyota to hire union workers to operate the plant, giving jobs back to the people who were rendered unemployed after the NUMMI shutdown.

Yesterday, Toyota and Tesla announced that the two companies would be collaborating on electric vehicle development. Tesla will be taking over the NUMMI factory in Fremont, California, which was recently closed. Now, the United Auto Workers is urging Toyota to hire union workers to operate the plant, giving jobs back to the people who were rendered unemployed after the NUMMI shutdown.

The United Auto Workers is many things to many people. To some, it's the reason why all of our manufacturing hasn't been shipped over to China. To others, UAW added costs are the reason why American cars can't compete with imports. Whatever your opinion, the facts are that the UAW is not nearly as strong as it once was. Back in 1979 the UAW claimed 1.5 million members on its rosters. In 2008 that number shrank to just 431,000 souls.

Ron Gettelfinger, the United Auto Workers' (UAW) president during the recent tumult, is moving on from his post, and has thrown his support behind Bob King. King is currently a vice president in the union and manages the relationship with Ford.

Big surprise, the United Auto Workers union does not intend to be majority owner of the New New Chrysler for very long. Outgoing UAW president Ron Gettelfinger confirmed in a press conference yesterday that the union's Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association (VEBA) will likely sell part or all of its 55% stake in the newly formed automaker once its stock appreciates, that is, if its stock appreciates.

Earlier this morning, United Auto Workers president Ron Gettelfinger held a press conference in which he pointed the finger of blame back at Senate Republicans, particularly ones from Southern states in which many foreign-owned auto assembly plants are located, for the failed attempt last night to pass the Auto Rescue/Bailout Bill in the Senate. As we mentioned earlier, negotiations fell apart over the issue of wage parity, or what Senator Bob Corkey (R-Tenn.) called "competitive wages".

As you read this, there are about 3,000 unionized workers -- down from about 15,000 two years ago -- employed by the Detroit 3 getting paid, despite the fact that they aren't working. While it's nice for America's automakers to have access to a talent-pool of available workers, it's also a major financial drain on an industry that's already reeling from a distinct lack of profits. And with new cutbacks and layoffs being announced almost daily, these "job banks" are increasingly tough to justify,

Ron Gettelfinger's basically saying "it's not our fault" when discussing the state of Detroit's automakers. Rather than admit that the UAW's plum labor agreements and contentious negotiations have contributed to the current gloomy situation, the United Auto Workers head man says that the economic downturn is to blame for everything, and that Congress should approve loans to the auto industry, saying "We cannot afford to...see this industry collapse." You've got to love that black and white logic

In an announcement that should be anything but shocking to anyone who even remotely follows the auto industry, United Auto Workers head Ron Gettelfinger says he and the UAW would be against any merger between automakers that would reduce either company's workforce. Considering that the Union's main job as of late has been safeguarding the jobs of its members, we would expect nothing less than an all-out war between Gettelfinger and the automakers involved, if such a merger were to take place, as

Once you have cut everyone, who is left to cut? That's the problem facing GM, according to UAW President Ron Gettelfinger. The General has already harvested the low hanging fruit with previous buyouts, but they're embarking on another round to try and further reduce labor costs. We've already covered the specifics of GM's latest buyout offer that attempts to sweeten the enticement to leave so that cheaper labor can be brought in. The new offer was made to 74,000 employees, and Gettelfinger estim

Rick Wagoner may be Motor Trend's most powerful person of the year, but Ron Gettelfinger deserves significant props for what he achieved over the course of the last 365 days. Automotive News has named the president of the UAW its Person of the Year, which is a fitting choice considering that Gettelfinger somehow managed to broker a compromise between domestic automakers and his union workers that satisfied both parties.

The UAW has already gone on record as supporting the newer (and lower) bipartisan bill which would raise Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards by 28 to 40 percent. This alternative bill would require cars to average fuel economy of 36 miles per gallon by 2022 with light trucks being required to meet 30 miles per gallon by 2025. This standard is being hailed as tough but reachable, while other bills are being deemed impossible, despite the differences being only a few miles per gallon h

Two years ago, the UAW gave some health care concessions to struggling GM and Ford in an effort to help the Detroit giants save billions of dollars and stay afloat. At the time, Chrysler was relatively well-off and so the union rejected a similar package for them. UAW President Ron Gettelfinger says that it's time to make up for that omission. Since 2005, the Chrysler Group went from a profit of $1.8 billion, to a loss of $618 million last year, and on to a $1.98 billion loss so far this year. G

Last week we told you that DaimlerChrysler's Rüdiger Grube was heading to New York to visit with potential suitors for the Chrysler Group. And it appears he was a man on a mission. It seems that a close source has told news outlets that a sale could be wrapped up by as early as May. Although talks are ongoing and nothing is definite, it looks like at least one of the bidders has met the company's expectations in principle. Those bidders included Blackstone Group, Centerbridge Capital Partne

Call it a case of "He said, he said." A Toyota spokesman says the Japanese automaker doesn't see an interest in unionizing among workers at its production facility in Kentucky, while UAW spokespeople say workers are showing more interest than ever in forming a union. So which is it? Could be a bit of both. UAW membership has been dropping nationwide, but the organization still has an undeniably powerful place in the industry. With more foreign automakers building plants in the States, particular

Chrysler no doubt felt a little burned by the United Auto Workers Union after being told it would receive no concessions for health care like the ones offered to both General Motors and Ford. At the time, the UAW cited the Chrysler Group's better financial health as the reason for the snubbing, but apparently the automaker's $1.5 billion loss last quarter and its expected loss of $1.2 billion for the year is enough to convince UAW president Ron Gettelfinger (shown at right with then Chrysler Gro

The UAW on Wednesday jumped on rumors that it had reopened talks with Chrysler. According to a piece in The Detroit News, UAW spokesman Roger Kerson said there was no meeting over one of the biggest sticking points, health care, as was rumored elsewhere. Although the UAW has reached health care agreements with GM and Ford this year, they broke off talks with Chrysler over this issue in September, likely because Chrysler wasn't in as dire of straights as Ford and GM. Chrysler spokesman Mike Aberl

If there is anything the Rick Wagoner has learned during his time at GM, it's that you never piss off the unions. That morsel of knowledge might be something that Carlos Ghosn has to consider now that the United Auto Workers (UAW) has come out in opposition of a possible merger of General Motors and Renault/Nissan.

Ron Gettelfinger, who was reelected to no one's surprise as president of the United Auto Workers (UAW) last month, will also be joining the DaimlerChrysler supervisory board as well. Gettelfinger is replacing UAW Vice President Nate Gooden who is stepping down from the board.

Nobody saw this one coming... Ron Gettelfinger, ran unopposed and was reelected as the president of the United Auto Workers (UAW) at its 34th Constitutional Convention in Las Vegas. Alongside him on the slate were five vice presidents, three of which are expected to be named as liaisons to Ford, Chrysler and General Motors, as well as a secretary-treasurer.

Top 10 Shabby Chic Home Decor Ideas Using Upcycled Materials!

Posted by Client Care on Wednesday, October 23rd, 2013 at 2:00pm.

The craze of shabby chic lives on as more and more people, including world famous interior designers and your average everyday stay at home mom, are turning lost secondhand treasures into totally amazing one of a kind home design elements. Whether you have an old set of drawers that is in need of a refinish or you go out to your local thrift store, the sky’s the limit when it comes to home design with repurposed items.  Below are some of my favorite ideas and a few links where you can find out more information on how to replicate these ingenious ideas.

1. DIY Upholstered Ottoman - The website I found this on, Not So Newlywed McGee’s, shows you step by step on how to create this simple and totally chic ottoman.  Use their template and custom design one that fits your home’s decor perfectly.

2. Using Stain to Make Artwork - I found this amazing piece of custom furniture on a site called Sawdust and Embryos.  Click their link to see exactly how they rescued a burnt buffet from the trash dump and transformed it into this amazing stained piece of artwork!

3. How to Paint a Mirror - Being Brook has a wonderful tutorial that takes you through an entryway, which features a painted plastic mirror.  If you have ever shopped for a large mirror before, you know they can be pretty expensive.  What a great way to turn any old grandma mirror into a chic statement piece!

4. Pallet Wall for Free - Mandy Jean Chic got it right when she came up with this incredibly cool idea!  See how she refinished a bathroom wall using rustic wood from broken down palettes to achieve a whimsical boardwalk beach feel!

5. License Plate Coffee Table - I found this picture on a Portuguese website called Coisinhaus Outras and think this would go so well on a variety of different tabletop surfaces. After translating the page, go about two-thirds the way down and you'll find the picture.  Although there are no “how to” directions on this site, I am pretty sure it would be fairly simple to figure out!

6. Wine Bottle Lamp - Lana Red Studio has a fantastic tutorial that shows how to change any wine bottle or glass bottle into a free standing lamp.  Think of how many times you have held onto a bottle of wine or champagne from a special event or just kept one that had amazing artwork on it, well now you can turn them into cool functional statement pieces!

7. A Bright Idea with Upcycled Tin Cans - Think of all the tin cans you have recycled in your life, now think about how expensive pedestal candle holders can be.  With this project from Frugal Interior Design you could get the kids involved, make holiday gift sets, and play around with funky design elements so easily!

8. Picture Perfect Window Love - I adore old windows and if you do too, the project I found on Cottage Instincts is super simple!  The chipping white paint, old glass, and the lines of vintage windows are the perfect way to display family portraits with an added country inspired flare!

9. Fork and Spoon Wall Hooks - Saw this idea on Rugs & Blinds blog and thought how cool!  This funky and peace loving application is hip and modern, but you could also do something similar using beautiful antique silverware. Plus, finding incomplete silver sets for cheap is typically not too hard.

10. Headboard Door - On Mother Nature Network they have a couple of great ideas on how to use recycled old doors.  I love the idea of turning one into a substantial looking headboards with just some screws, paint and a piece of trim!

2014 BMW 435i First Drive

ESTORIL, Portugal – The BMW 3-Series coupe is alive and well. Its new name, 4-series, is the result of competitive pressure from the Audi A5, which is, of course, the coupe version of the A4. The 2014 BMW 4-Series updates what probably is the most successful two-door in the global market and should carry on as the driver’s version of BMW’s premium compact, leaving it to the much higher-volume 3-series sedan to bring in the multitudes of well-financed, post-yuppie aspirational consumers.

We’ll have a pretty good idea of how well this strategy works going forward, because splitting the 3-series sedan and coupe into 3 and 4 means separate sales numbers. BMW says 50 percent of 3-series coupe sales have gone to Europe and 30 percent have come to the United States.

BMW offered only one spec for its 4-series first drive here in Portugal, and it likely will be a popular configuration in the States: the 435i with the sport package and eight-speed automatic transmission. It also will offer the 428i, with the 2.0-liter turbo four rated at 245 hp and 258 lb-ft. The company is considering offering the 2.0-liter turbodiesel in the coupe but isn’t ready to make a commitment yet. The inevitable M4 will reportedly come with a version of the 3.0-liter tuned to 415 horsepower.

The 4-series is longer and lower than the 3-series sedan as well as the last 3-series coupe and it has a longer wheelbase, although it’s lighter than the old coupe. The new styling is clean and tidy, looking like a more properly proportioned 6-series. The Chris Bangle-instituted side surfacing has been further refined. The bullet-nose front end, with its sloping hood bulge, accommodates the European pedestrian-protection standard by trying to hide it in what BMW sees as a more masculine design. Not everyone will like the front of the profile, which is effective yet controversial.

The “air curtain” directs air through the corners of the lower front fascia, around the front wheels, and out the front fender scallops, thus making them functional. It’s also a distinction between the 4- and the 3-series, as rear track, which is wider than front track in the 4. The widest point of the body is at the middle of the rear wheel arches.

All the press drive cars were silver 435i models with a black and red interior. A brushed-metal horizontal accent bifurcates the black-over-red dash and inset into the black-over-red interior door panels. The interior is richer than the previous model’s, with excellent fit and finish. This puts more pressure on the Mercedes-Benz C-Class and other cars trying to catch up, although the material on the interior A-pillars looks and feels a bit cheesy and easy to snag. The red lower half of the dash could seem too bright and overdone if you’ve been a fan long enough to remember the iconic 2002’s equally iconic, Teutonic black interior.

Yet more electronic gizmos and the latest iteration of iDrive aside, the 435i drives more than ever like the satisfying sports coupe that it always has been, with pitch-perfect ride-and-handling balance. It’s as smooth as a George Clooney pickup line on imperfect roads and as sharp as one of his Italian suits in the corners, with just enough compliance to enhance the feedback and sufficient mechanical grip to give the best two-seat sports cars a run for their euros.

The electronically assisted power steering is quick and precise. BMW has engineered out negative feedback, such as washboard surfaces that can resonate through the floorboards without resonating through the steering column. The 4-series is more satisfying than fun, however, because the steering makes fast runs on twisty mountain roads downright relaxing. We felt like we weren’t driving nearly as fast as usual on the first run until our driving partner, with whom we regularly share press cars on BMW trips, remarked that we were, indeed, driving at our regular pace.

A few laps in the car around the equally satisfying former Formula 1 Estoril circuit, which is short, narrow and fairly tight, backed this up. Telltale compliance and maximum grip give way to mild initial understeer, which can be manipulated into trail-throttle oversteer (with electronic stability control fully off). Through all of this, the car makes you feel unrushed and relaxed, as if you’re driving more slowly than you actually are. The 435i’s brakes are not racing brakes, of course, and they provided the only letdown, with heavy fade after a few laps. Steering input response is sublime. As much as this segment is starting to feel like all the models are just one very competent, excellent-handling model but with different sheetmetal, the Bimmer stands out.

The 306-hp, turbo 3.0-liter in-line six, too, doesn’t feel like a turbo. If there was any lag, we were too relaxed to notice it. Our only regret was that all the cars were equipped with the eight-speed automatic transmission. The manual may be down two cogs, but it would have been an engaging anachronism on this drive. BMW hasn’t yet dipped into the light autonomy offered in the Acura RLX, Infiniti Q50, and, soon, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, but you can bet that the next 7-series appearing in about a year will. When it trickles down to the 4- and 3-series, it’s the eight-speed automatic that will make it possible for the ultimate driving machines to be driving themselves.
