Robert M* Invention Helps to Buffer Arctic Cold

with Simple Air Bag Insulation

How to Install Air Bags Over Inside GlassWindows

to Stop Heat Loss

Hi, Folks,

I’m hunkering down here in “Little America” with Admiral Byrd…
This cold is definitely not “for the birds” except for penguins …

How to Install Air Bags over Inside Glass Windows

to Stop Heat Loss

A few years ago, I devised my own system to install an “air bubble wrap” on each window and covered 8 of the 14 windows in my apartment with “air bags” to block heat loss directly through the glass window panes.

I use a simple, clear plastic sleeve  trash bag that happens to be just a bit longer but exactly as wide as the windows to seal the gap between the upper and lower window.

With the lower window raised about 4-5 inches to create an opening between top and bottom windows,

I stretch each bag across the top like a sheet, or curtain, aligning the right and left sides parallel to the window sides evenly.

Then, I insert the sealed closed end of the “air bag,” sliding it down into the gap between the 2 windows, keeping the horizontal edge evenly across until the sealed end hangs about 2 inches below the level of upper window.

Holding the bag in alignment, close the window just enough catch the bag between the 2 windows (again draping the bag evenly across the width of the window, so that the hanging end is even and horizontal.

Now at this point it is helpful to have someone to assist in tucking the bottom (open) end of the bag evenly to the outside straight across the bottom. When I do this alone, I hold the top with one hand and use a ruler or straightedge to tuck  “OUT” the open end, effectively wrapping the lower window in 2 layers of clear plastic.

Now comes the FUN PART!

Very carefully, close the window entirely making sure that the top & bottom window “bite” the plastic sleeve, and pinch the bag evenly across at top and bottom, sealing the “air-bag-to-be” and holding it in place!

As I said, HERE comes the Fun part  <pure science and common sense … ?

Depending on the wind and outside air pressure, the air blowing or just simple atmospheric air pressure slowly forces air into the bag through the bottom (open) side of the plastic sleeve and slowly inflates the bag, which swells up like a square balloon and slowly covers nearly the entire pane of glass,

Once that cold air is warmed by the indoor heat, it forms a buffer of warm air that blocks the loss of heat through the panes of glass in winter, and also serve to keep air conditioned air inside during summer.

Since heat rises, more he is lost through the upper window pane than the lower, so it is an even simpler matter to tape the sealed end of the “air-bag-to-be” right across the top just like you might do with drape a curtain, again keeping both the horizontal and lateral alignment with the window, slide the open end through the 2-4 inch gap between windows while open, and just let it hang evenly, nothing more is needed …

Just close the window, sit back … ? and Watch it grow!.

The same thing will happen,  the bag will slowly inflate and create a warm air buffer to stop the major part of the heat that was lost from leaving your house.

If you want to seal both top & bottom window panes, It is better to do the top window first, then seal the bottom one.

Please share this simple, little invention/discovery freely with your friends, especially to those suffering under these arctic conditions and especially those who live in older houses with wooden window frames and suffer a lot of drafty gaps between the windows or their frames.

Cheers,  ✌

Top 100 Theater Books Every Theater Maker Should Read.

I came up with the idea for this blog 17 months ago.

That’s how long it took to curate it.

The title says it all.  The list below contains 100 books that I think every theater maker should read. It’s made up of books I’ve read that have had an effect on me, as well as recommendations from my peers (including several of my podcast guests), other lists I’ve seen and before you know it . . . 100 books on the major theatrical disciplines of Playwrighting, Producing, Directing, Acting, and more.

And that’s all I’m going to say about it.  Because it’s a long list and if you’re going to get through it, never mind read even one of the books, you’re going to need some time.

Enjoy ’em!

With insight, humor, and practicality, Natalie Goldberg inspires writers and would-be writers to take the leap into writing skillfully and creatively.  She offers suggestions, encouragement, and solid advice on many aspects of the writer’s craft: on writing from “first thoughts” (keep your hand moving, don’t cross out, just get it on paper), on listening (writing is ninety percent listening; the deeper you listen, the better you write), on using verbs (verbs provide the energy of the sentence), on overcoming doubts (doubt is torture; don’t listen to it) — even on choosing a restaurant in which to write.

  1. On Writing by Charles Bukowski

On Writing reveals an artist brutally frank about the drudgery of work and canny and uncompromising about the absurdities of life — and of art. It illuminates the hard-edged, complex humanity of a true American legend and counterculture icon —the “laureate of American lowlife” (Time) —who stoically recorded society’s downtrodden and depraved.  It exposes an artist grounded in the visceral, whose work reverberates with his central ideal: “Don’t try.”

  1. Mastering the Craft of Writing: How to Write With Clarity, Emphasis, and Style by Stephen Wilbers

  1. The Secret Life of the American Musical by Jack Viertel

A New York Times Bestseller. For almost a century, Americans have been losing their hearts and losing their minds in an insatiable love affair with the American musical. It often begins in childhood in a darkened theater, grows into something more serious for high school actors, and reaches its passionate zenith when it comes time for love, marriage, and children, who will start the cycle all over again. Americans love musicals. Americans invented musicals. Americans perfected musicals. But what, exactly, is a musical?

  1. The Art of Dramatic Writing by Lajos Egri

Amid the hundreds of “how-to” books that have appeared in recent years, there have been very few which attempted to analyze the mysteries of play-construction. This book does that – and its principles are so valid that they apply equally well to the short story, novel, and screenplay. Lajos Egri examines a play from the inside out, starting with the heart of any drama: its characters. He shows how it is essential for the author to have a basic premise – a thesis, demonstrated in terms of human behavior – and to develop his dramatic conflict on the basis of that behavior. Premise, character, conflict: this is Egri’s ABC. His book is a direct, jargon-free approach to the problem of achieving truth in literary creation.

  1. Sense of Occasion by Harold Prince

In this fast-moving, candid, conversational, and entertaining memoir, Harold Prince, the most honored director/producer in the history of the American theater looks back over his seventy-year (and counting!) career. In 1974, Prince released his first book, Contradictions: Notes on Twenty-Six Years in the Theatre. Although Contradictions has since attained cult status among producers, directors, and actors alike, Prince, in hindsight, believes he wasn’t ready to publish such a tome at that point in his career (in fact, doing so was an act of “insane arrogance”). Although he doesn’t regret that effort, he is, at last, prepared to conclude it, to “see where I was right in my assessments and where I was wrong.” In Sense of Occasion, Prince returns to this seminal text, invigorating it with fresh insights cultivated through four decades of additional practice. Sense of Occasion gives an insider’s recollection of the making of such landmark musicals as West Side Story , Fiddler on the Roof , Cabaret , Company , Follies , Sweeney Todd , Evita , and Phantom of the Opera , with Prince’s perceptive comments about his mentor George Abbott and his many celebrated collaborators, including Leonard Bernstein, Jerome Robbins, Stephen Sondheim, John Kander, Boris Aronson, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Angela Lansbury, Zero Mostel, Carol Burnett, and Joel Grey.

This book addresses all of these considerations in detail and offers the reader–professional or amateur, veteran or beginner–helpful guidance and practical advice, supported by many forms and examples to illustrate the points covered in the text. The three phrases of mounting and performing a show are covered. Part I takes the reader through the pre-production phase–research, the script, planning and organization, and auditions. Part II covers the rehearsal process–rehearsal rules, blocking, cues, prompting, information distribution, technical and dress rehearsals. Part III discusses the performance phase–calling the show, maintaining the director’s work, working with understudies and replacements, and more.

How to Succeed in the Arts… Or In Anything

If you’ve imagined being a Producer or a Writer. . . an Actor or a Director. . . or a real estate investor, hedge fund dude, or even a world champion poker player. . . you can do it, as long as you have the right directions. And I’d like to share those directions with you. . . the directions that took me years to gather, but the directions that are without a doubt responsible for getting me where I am today. . . and more importantly, will be 101% responsible for where I want to be tomorrow. And I know that they can do the same for you.

How to Write a Script in 30 Days

All of the greatest creators, from Beethoven to Edison, had something in common. They didn’t just create stuff. They created a ton of stuff. That’s why I’m a big believer that producers should produce more, directors should direct more, and, of course, writers should write more. The funny thing is, too many writers I know just can’t finish a script. Maybe they have ideas, and maybe they write a few scenes, but they don’t get to the end. Or maybe they’ve never written anything and are too afraid to start! That’s why I wrote this book, which guarantees you’ll have a finished script, whether or not you’ve ever written anything before! That’s right. In only one month, you can go from a blank page to a completed script, ready to be staged. Just imagine . . . you’ll have a full script in your hands (or a Producer’s hands) by the end of this month if you start today! So what are you waiting for?

Keep an eye out for my upcoming book “Broadway Investing: How to Make Theater and Yes, Even Make Money”.

    • Gene editing has revolutionized how we think about disease prevention

The Future of Gene Editing

Saira Munshani ’20 Senior Op/Ed Editor
Gene editing and therapy, like Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR), are revolutionizing the way we view and treat disease.
There are many factors to consider such as the larger effects of seemingly small changes on an individual’s genome and the overarching ethics. The use of CRISPR spans disciplines - science, technology, politics - which makes it harder to find a single answer regarding regulation. The search for a universal protocol and limit becomes more complex with every scientific advancement.

Two years ago, Dr. He Jiankui of the Southern University of Science and Technology in Shenzhen, China, modified human embryos with CRISPR. The father was HIV-positive, so Dr. He and his team used a CRISPR system to prevent his children from contracting the disease as well. Scientists have long been searching for a way to prevent HIV-enabling pathways in order to eradicate the disease. With the use of modern laboratory techniques and knowledge of CRISPR, Dr. He and his team used CRISPR to knock out the CCR5 gene, which allows HIV to enter immune cells and infect them, in embryos that were a day old. He did this with sixteen embryos and implanting them in wombs, he achieved a viable pregnancy.

In November 2018, as a result of Dr. He’s work, twin girls were born healthy. This sparked a myriad of questions from scientists all over the world. Would the changes to the genome cause issues for the twins later in life? Is it ethical to impact the DNA that will be passed down for generations? Who gets access to CRISPR related technologies? Almost immediately after the incident, scientists called a moratorium “on all clinical uses of human germline editing — that is, changing heritable DNA (in sperm, eggs or embryos) to make genetically modified children,” as cited from an article published in Nature in March of 2019. The goal of the moratorium was not to completely halt all CRISPR related research. Instead, scientists hoped to establish limits on the use of clinical genetic editing in order to investigate the ethics surrounding altering the human genome. Authorities later revealed that Dr. He forged ethical documents and misled doctors into implanting the edited embryos. There is still little known about his exact activities; however, Dr. He was sentenced to three years in jail for his actions this past December.

CRISPR research is still ongoing and studies that eliminate the risk of heritable changes have been successful. For instance, Dr. Haydar Frangoul in Tennessee has been able to modify bone marrow cells inside a sickle cell disease patient’s body so that they create a protein which helps to alleviate the effects of the disease. These advancements are happening all over the world - the same type of modified sickle cells are helping another patient in Germany. In contrast to Dr. He’s work, bioethicists are now heavily involved every step of the way, and work with the scientists, doctors, and patients.

Determining the definitive and ethical uses of CRISPR is a persistent process. Currently, many studies involve systems in vivo (live animal experiments) and in vitro (experiments on isolated cells), and these will help provide insight into how CRISPR can be most effectively used. Whether it be to create “knockout” versions of a gene for transcriptional repression/activation, or for patient treatment, this technology has the power to change our world forever. CRISPR is unlike other scientific advancements because of its multifaceted impact on society. It is up to both scientists and citizens to find a balance between globally spanning advancements of CRISPR and the ethics of implementing it.

Status Of On Farm Conservation Program

Oakdale Irrigation District

Contrary to the articles that have been appearing in local papers, the OID’s On-Farm Conservation Program is alive and well, just on hold from a preliminary injunction issued by the court. That action was filed by the Oakdale Groundwater Alliance made up of Louis Brichetto, a large landowner of foothill properties outside OID’s irrigation service boundaries and with some small holdings in OID and Robert Frobose, a rice grower with land in OID but who resides in Modesto.

The On-Farm Program, while on hold for OID, did not stop the owners of 59 parcels from performing as outlined in the contracts they executed in good faith with OID prior to the court’s issuance of the preliminary injunction. To that very point, Mr. Mount, a program participant came forward at the last OID Board meeting and stated he had done his part under the contract and now he wants OID to do its part and pay. He has filed a damage claim under the Tort Claims Act against OID.

As background, on March 15, 2016 the Board approved the One Year Pilot On-Farm Water Conservation Program. After OID’s Board approved the Program, 59 contracts were entered into and executed by Program participants obligating OID to perform as contracted for.

On April 1, 2016, OGA, Louis Brichetto and Robert Frobose filed a suit against the OID challenging the On-Farm Water Conservation Program. On May 27, 2016 the Superior Court of Stanislaus County issued a preliminary injunction prohibiting OID from continuing with the Program until a court trial is concluded on the sufficiency of the environmental documents OID prepared. That trial may not take place until next year sometime. OID has complied with the court’s order and has not performed any actions under the 59 contracts.

What is striking at this point though, the On-Farm Conservation Program was supposed to be just a one year pilot program for this past irrigation season. Most of the participant farmers have performed the conservation projects they contracted to install for which OID agreed to pay. The lawsuit did not stop the conservation projects as intended and yet the suit continues by the plaintiffs.

The Tort Claims Act allows parties to present a claim to a public entity for money or damages as a prerequisite to bringing a lawsuit against it. The primary function of the Tort Claims Act is to apprise the governmental body of the possibility of imminent legal action so that it may investigate and evaluate the claim and, where appropriate, avoid litigation by settling meritorious claims. As outlined by the OID Board, the OID intends to do just that.

To date, OID has received five claims requesting compensation for damages they sustained resulting from non-payment on executed contracts under the Program. The General Manager and General Counsel have been directed to settle all pending and future damage claims in good faith resulting from the On-Farm Conservation Program. If Program participants choose not to file a claim and OID prevails at trial, participants will be paid through the On-Farm Program.

Steve Knell serves as the General Manager for Oakdale Irrigation District. He may be reached at 209-847-0341.

Ariana Grande Is Considering Running For Mayor of Her Hometown of Boca Raton, Florida

Written by Fannin Fabriano

Tuesday, 11 February 2020

image for Ariana Grande Is Considering Running For Mayor of Her Hometown of Boca Raton, Florida
Ariana singing her hit song, "Thank U Next" at The Voodoo Arena in New Orleans.

NEW ORLEANS – The iNews Agency recently interviewed Ariana Grande just before she took the stage at The Voodoo Arena in New Orleans.

The 26-year-old singing firecracker told iA’s Kitty Segovia that she has never been more frustrated with the state of our nation as she is now.

The petite 5-feet-tall songstress sipped on a Papaya Margarita, and commented that President “Old Lard Ass” is running the country into the frickin' ground.

She added that the GOP gelding senators are sitting back and just watching like a bunch of marionettes and puppets that haven't got any balls, especially Mitch "The Turtle Bitch" McConnell, Lindsey "Sissy Girl" Graham, and Kevin "No Balls" Nunes.

She then pointed out that, out of the world’s 195 countries, a total of 163 now hate us because of the shitty ass way that our ass wipe fake president is acting.

The petite songstress went on to say that "Baby Pee-Pee Donnie" forgot that he is the president and not the freakin’ king.

Grande then dropped a bombshell, and said that she is considering running for mayor of Boca Raton, Florida. She said that, when elected, she will sign a mayorial executive order that will keep all Republican candidates off the city’s election ballots.

There are some who may say that it is illegal to do so, but like Ariana said, “If the ‘Commander-in-Shit’ can make presidential executive orders, then I as the mayor will make mayoral executive orders as well."

(IN CLOSING - Grande said that she is currently rehearsing a song about “The Divider-in-Chief.” The title is “Dear Sweet Melania, Can You Please Slap Some Sense Into Your Crazy, Piece of Rhino Shit Husband?”)

The story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.

FYI, Newtown’s Flour Drum Will Open For Dinner

By Yvonne Lam
5th Jul 2018

If slow and steady wins the race, then Newtown’s Flour Drum’s new dinner menu is raising that trophy and drinking that shooey. Their night-time meals are cooked low and slow, so praise be.

From August, they’ll be running a dinner service on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. Their dishes look off the hook—slow-cooked delights with mod-Asian interpretations. Hơ about an eight-hour lamb ragu pappardelle with shallot and chilli oil? Perhaps a beef rendang with cardamom-fragrant rice and house-made cumquat relish? Or how about a bowl of BBQ duck ravioli, swimming about with oodles of egg noodles in a duck and shiitake mushroom broth?

Executive chef John Ageletos appears to have read our comfort-food-craving minds and spoken directly to our growling winter appetites. Flour Drum has been building a glowing reputation for their too-good-to-be-true brunches for three years now, so opening for dinner is a much-anticipated move for this end of south King Street.

Keep an eye on their Instagram for more details.

On that drool-worthy note, here are Sydney's best Sunday roasts.
