Blue bags get thumbs up from garbage officials |

Blue bags get thumbs up from garbage officials

Adam Jensen

Adam Jensen / Tahoe Daily TribuneSouth Tahoe Refuse Company swamper Andres Munoz collects garbage from in front of a home on Modesto Avenue on Tuesday morning.

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – Despite a pair of glitches, South Tahoe Refuse Company officials are considering their curbside recycling program a success after about 18 months of operation.

The “blue bag program” – as it is known – began in a few neighborhoods of South Lake Tahoe in January 2009 and expanded throughout the South Shore in April 2009.

Under the program, the refuse company distributes about 10,000 blue bags a month to residents to separate recyclable materials from non-recyclable waste.

Glass and paper recycling numbers have remained about the same since the curbside recycling program’s inception, but the program has helped increase the amount of plastic and aluminum the refuse company is able to keep out of landfills, said Jeanne Lear, the refuse company’s human resources manager.

In 2009 the refuse company’s Material Recovery Facility recycled an additional 111.2 tons of plastic and 9.2 more tons of aluminum compared to 2008, according to figures provided by Lear.

Refuse company officials have noted a pair of problems with the program since its inception: bringing second homeowners into the fold and theft.

The percentage of part-time residents at the South Shore is difficult to pinpoint, but John Marchini, the refuse company’s operations manager, estimated about 60 percent of homes in the area are occupied for only some of the year.

The biggest hurdle with part-time residents is letting them know the blue bag program exists and getting them to call the refuse company to get started, Marchini said.

The “biggest negative” with the program has been the amount of theft the company has experienced after people have taken their bags full of recyclables out for collection, Marchini said.

“There’s times when they’ll go through complete service areas,” Marchini said.

While the material is still getting recycled, Marchini said the practice is problematic because it creates gaps in people’s participation.

Because residents only receive a new blue bag after they put a full one out, the theft of blue bags has generated a slew of phone calls from residents wondering why their blue bags were not replaced.

The refuse company has contacted police regarding the theft in an attempt to log license plate numbers and have encouraged residents to take trash out in the morning rather than leaving it out overnight to combat the activity, Marchini said.

The refuse company is also looking at a number of ways to keep a larger percentage of waste originating from the South Shore out of area landfills.

The state mandates diversion rates of 50 percent, and South Lake Tahoe’s stated goal is 55 percent.

For the past five years, South Tahoe Refuse has diverted an average of 44 percent of the waste it receives from the landfill. The current diversion rate is 39 percent.

Marchini attributed the drop in diversion rates to an anemic construction environment at the South Shore preventing the heavy metal and wood materials that bolster weight-dependent diversion rates from being brought to the company’s Material Recovery Facility.

The refuse company is hopeful it will gain several percentage points in diversion from its Resource Recovery Facility, which opened in April and processes organic waste to turn into compost and mulch.

The refuse company is also working on a food waste recycling pilot program with Aramark and Embassy Suites to examine how much such a program would cost and determine how much waste could be diverted if the program was expanded.

Efforts are also underway to get the blue bag program into public facilities, like schools, and create a pilot program for apartment complexes, Lear said.

Water Action Plan places focus on Sierra Nevada | TahoeDailyTribune.com

Water Action Plan places focus on Sierra Nevada

Isaac Brambila

As the state struggles with drought and the demand of quality water from residents throughout the state, the California Department of Water Resources released its California Water Action plan updates on Thursday.

One of the highlighted purposes of the plan is to steer away from single-solution approaches and seek plans with multiple benefits, Director of the California Department of Water Resources Mark Cowin said during a media briefing on Thursday.

One of the approaches that may affect the Tahoe area the most is the effort to protect and restore what the Water Resources Department considers important ecosystems. Among the priorities is to restore key mountain meadow habitats, specifically in the Sierra Nevada and Cascade mountain ranges.

With the Department of Fish and Wildlife coordinating with other state agencies, state authorities aim to restore 10,000 acres of mountain meadow habitat in strategic locations, which could increase groundwater storage and provide habitat for more than 100 native species, according to the report.

The two mountain ranges and a few other forested areas in the state are places of origin for more than two-thirds of the state's developed water supply, the report stated. Water from the Sierra Nevada and Cascade ranges supplies all or part of the needs for 23 million Californians and millions of acres of agricultural land.

As much as half of the water that flows into the Delta begins as snow and rain in the mountains.

The report also states that many of the crucial watersheds are in poor health because of several factors, including climate change. Warmer climate can exacerbate the diseases and pests that increase risks of fire. Precipitation falling as rain instead of snow can create significant operational challenges for reservoirs.

Furthermore, large fires can create tons of sediment that can end up in reservoirs, significantly reducing storage capacity and water quality.

With the changes, the Water Resources Department aims to have forests' health restored through forest management and prevent over-forestation.

The department also aims to protect and restore degraded stream and meadow ecosystems.

The Tahoe Basin has already seen projects that aim to restore ecosystems, one of which is the Upper Truckee River re-channeling project, which was started in an effort to deviate certain areas of the river where it has gotten too wide and shallow after erosion occurred. The eroded and shallow channels have affected reproductive habits of some species in the area.

To move forward with the plan, hundreds of projects similar to the Upper Truckee River project are planned throughout the state, Cowin said on Thursday.

Overall, the state faces issues with water scarcity and drought, declining ground water supplies, poor water quality, declining native fish and loss of wildlife habitat, floods, supply disruptions, population growth and climate change, the report states.

The plan of action includes efforts to make conservation a California way of life, increasing regional self-reliance and increasing integrated water management across all levels of government.

It also aims to achieve co-equal goals for the Delta, manage and prepare better for dry periods, expand water storage capacity, work to provide safe water for all communities, increase flood protection, increase operational and regulatory efficiency and identify sustainable and integrated financing opportunities.

Still, Cowin said California has a complex water system and that everyone has to get involved for things to improve.

"We have to get past the bumper stickers," he said.

It is essential to promote a culture of conservation throughout the state, he added.

Buffalo Nation - 243368 views

Are Tanka buffalo grass-fed?

By Mark A. Tilsen, Sr., President, Native American Natural Foods

Follow Tanka Bar on Twitter @tankabar
Read Mark's bio here

Bookmark and Share

We currently buy our buffalo from a variety of sources. Our goal is to buy 100% Native American grass-fed buffalo raised following the wild model.

This means that the buffalo are born and raised in large open prairies eating natural grass from prairie land that has never been tilled or planted. Animals are rotated to simulate the natural migration of buffalo as much as possible. This helps them to eat the different grasses during different grazing sessions, similar to how they have grazed throughout history. The ability to follow a wild management model is limited by modern fences and a limited land base.

Since the Tanka Bar is a blended product, we blend 10/90 lean meat from animals 2 to 3 years old with that of meat from older animals 5 to 6 years old. These are either bulls or females that are no longer producing offspring.

We are working toward having 100% grass-fed meat, meaning that the animals were never given corn or blended feed. Even during the staging process, we want them to be fed hay or feed cake made of 100% natural grasses.

We presently use about 75% grass-fed meat in Tanka products, which means we have not yet achieved our goal of 100% grass-fed.

Is the corn NON-GMO? And are the spices used completely without gluten? Thanks

Guest on Thu Aug 18, 2016 16:19:33
I really appreciate this mission and am inspired to consider all sources of my food and striving to primitive and sustainable methods of production. I am more than happy to support Tanka, even at 75% grass fed because frankly, our food is more than just the buzz words associated with Whole Foods consumers (like organic, all natural, and grass fed.)

Thank you for having goals that will benefit our future economy, children, animals, and the environment we live.

Rather than be turned away by your honesty, I will search for Tanka products in the grocery stores I visit in the hope that my business will help you reach your ethical production goals! Thank you for being a role model in the food industry, I'm more than happy to support you with my dollar knowing that I will be a part of the movement that helps you achieve your food production goals.

Guest on Sat Mar 5, 2016 15:56:22
Any update here? Like other commenters, I'm interested in your product but need to know where the remaining 25% of meat comes from (and how close you've come to meeting the 100% grass-fed goal). Thank you!

Guest on Sat Oct 25, 2014 16:3:4
Grass fed grass finish please.
As soon as you can
Thank you for your honesty

Guest on Wed Aug 27, 2014 20:0:23
So, what's the life of the other 25% and what do they eat?

Guest on Mon Mar 10, 2014 7:57:44
Any idea of when your going to reach that goal of 100%?

Guest on Thu Jan 30, 2014 12:8:21
Definitely keep us informed on when your 100%, I cannot order until your there. Thanks

Source's preview
Time for Trees is Joshua Smith of Denver, Colorado and we are very proud to present you with his Archipel debut album “Sometimes Always” which is a superb collection of warm and dark techno combined with textural and shadowy ambient pieces.

“Faking for Diamonds”, “Still Waiting” and “Matthew Made Me Do It” are sugary blends of warm techno with candied industrial inspirations which swirl perfectly into subtly jazz tinged soundscapes which at times are almost binaural in their scope and filled to the very top of a shimmering surface tensioned liquid with endless detailing to keep both feet and mind fully occupied and within ecstatic reverie. “The What Of It”, “Please Stop Shining” and “Itty Bitty” wear darker techno colours but still remain chock full of warm rubbery funk with the same impeccable detailing as their more jazz influenced counterparts.

They whirl with subtle melodies and beautiful layers enough to satisfy the most insatiably deep of minds all while retaining a very mesmerizing mosaic of addictive and inescapable rhythm. We then have the more ambient pieces of this collection which are very much in the league of work such as Nine Inch Nails’ ‘Ghosts I-IV’. “For Windy Days” and “Who Can Know Such Things” are both very atmospheric and dark yet share a strong undercurrent of warmth much like a deeply red moon bleeding light into a wispy clouded sky just before sunset. “It Never Does” and “Rhinestones on the Sidewalk” take things even darker still with a more industrial ambient tang while both carrying a perfectly balanced oceanic tidal push and pull as they progress.

“Stuck in the Throat” and “Reduction” carry the theme of darkness further still by reducing the overall number of layers and elements while adding subtle rhythms which carry them forward on a hypnagogic train ride through cold moonlight as the backs of urban decay pass swiftly by in enveloping velvet black.

Google Gmail Makeover

Posted: December 7th, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Bow Down, Google, Technoid Computer News | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , | Comments Off on Google Gmail Makeover

GOOGLEThe Google designers have been flatout lately, they’ve done some serious make-overs on everything from Analytics control panels to Youtube. Smack in the middle of all of this is the make-over Gmail has had bashed into it, and as always with Google updates and makeovers many punters aren’t happy.

This new clean white look Google is heavier on specs, however the clean white makes everything look a little less, infact all of the Google products that have undergone  the clean white make-overs now offer much much more, including Gmail.

As always with Google products, there is a quick and übersimple – but hidden – FIX!

  1. Goto the little cog logo aka SETTINGS
  2. Select COMPACT
  3. Breathe OUT!
Google reckons they’ve made the entire experience a heap easier as well as cleaner :: Read the full article »»»»

How to Fix the Disappearing Dock on Mac OS X

Have you booted into your Mac desktop only to find that the Dock has disappeared? Well, this is a common problem that happens randomly on most versions of Mac OS X. In my case it happened with me on my Macbook Air which was running on Mac OS X Yosemite.

There is nothing to be worried about here. Logically, the dock can only disappear when you turn it off, but as reported by many Mac users on the Apple forums. The dock usually disappears when someone boots into the Mac desktop and the same happened with me. While the cause of this bug is unknown, i certainly know for sure that i did not turn off the dock. The solution on the other hand is downright simple.

Generally Mac OS X allows the users to turned the Dock on or off. So if the dock disappears on your Mac, you can simply press the Option + Command + D keys to turn on the dock on Mac OS X.

Well this is as easy as it gets. I hope I was able to help you out and if i did, then please don’t forget to like our Facebook page.

What did they say of you? A witch? Hah! You, a witch?! That’s just a silly rumor, spread by the silly blacksmith.
We will take care of him later.
Here, here, may I pour you some tea? Yes? How about some sugar? Milk? Honey? No? My, what a hospitable guest.
Oh, there are those pesky villagers, pounding on my door again! When will they learn?
Please, excuse me as I deal with them. No, no, you stay put. They won’t set a foot in my house if I have anything to do with it.
What, what do you all want? Who? Never heard of her! Go away! Can’t you all tell what date it is? Yes, yes, I know, All Hollow’s Eve! Now shoo!
My, my, how sorry I am. Tsk tsk, they’ll never learn.
Oh my! What’s this? Your stomach hurts? Well, yes, yes, if you must. No! Not over there! In the trash banister! That stain will take me weeks to clean!
Please, don’t pass out there. I know, I know! Your stomach! I get it! It’s the poison, my dear, it will do that to you.
Hm? What? Oh, the poison from the tea, of course!
Now, now, there’s no use crying your beauty will sustain me well for at least a few years.
Now then, why don’t we wait until you are done, and then… well, then we will see how a true witch works…

Unspoken Passion (Part 4)

“You ready?” Nate whispered in Tacy’s ear. She smiled grabbed her bag off the ground, and wrapped her fingers around his. Nate squeezed her hand and led her to his car. She slid in the car passenger seat and pulled on her seatbelt. She watched carefully as Nate pulled out of the parking lot. “As the best figure skater in history you have control of the radio, listen to whatever!” She began to dig in her bag and pulled out a purple Ipod. She plugged it up and started listening from the top of the list. While Alone in this bed by Framing Hanley filled the car she took a deep breath and closed her eyes as she relaxed her head on the rest. A few minutes later she turned to him and signed, “What position do you play in hockey?”
“Forward left wing.”
“Is it hard?”
“Not to me. I love skating and smashing into people.”
“Wow, sounds like fun.”
Laughing Nate said, “You have no idea!”
“What’s your family like?” She signed curiously.
“Pretty average. I have an older brother and a younger sister. So I’m the middle child.
“How old is your sister?”
“Two years younger. So thirteen. I don’t think she is enjoying being a teenager.”
“Why not?”
“She is a girl, tons of that crying screaming drama crap.”
“Oh, I remember that. But I didn’t have as much as other girls.” She said disappointed.
“Trust me, you should consider yourself lucky. It isn’t something you wish for.”
“I know. What’s her name?”
“Skye. She is dying to meet you. I’m going to teach her some before though.” Tacy smiled and closed her eyes again until they arrived.

Slowly they glided to a stop, and Tacy didn’t move an inch. Nate unbuckled his seatbelt and leaned over the seat next to Tacy. He moved close to her face, so close he felt her steady breathing on his face. He moved the one string of hair that had fallen out of the pinned up bump of bangs to the side of her face. The touch caused her eyes to flutter open, and Nate didn’t even surprise her. She just looked at him straight in the eyes. They sat there, staring at each other, for a few more seconds then Nate moved the hand that had been resting on her face down and unbuckled her. He moved away slowly, then got out of the car and smiled when he reached Tacy, who was staring at the open pond and the shaded weeping willow tree, where they would have their first date.
Nate reached in the back of his gray Toyota and grabbed a large picnic basket. Then he took Tacy’s hand and they walked toward the willow. When under the shade, he pulled out a large orange blanket for the two of them to sit on.

She gracefully sat down and watched Nate pull contents out of the basket. There was: two monster energy drinks, two sandwiches, and a jumbo bag of peanut butter M&Ms. Nate looked at her and smiled thinking about how lucky he was. She smiled in silent reply and picked up both sandwiches and placed them back into the basket. They opened the M&Ms and drinks and began to talk as the wind blew around them.

After an hour of talking Nate sprung to his feet and grabbed Tacy’s hand pulling her up. They quickly moved to the other side of the tree where a sturdy wooden swing was held by a branch. She sat on the swing which reached just about two feet above the sandy ground. “Are you afraid of heights?”
“Not with you here.” She signed to him.
“Good.” He said chuckling as he began to push her. As Tacy moved higher and higher she grew closer to the pond. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She let go of the rope and fell into the beautiful pond.
“TACY!!!!” Nate screamed and sprinted after her. Driving into the clear blue pond he saw her pink eyes glowing with pure delight. They both rose from the water with droplets streaming down their faces. Her ponytail had come loose and her dark hair fell over shoulders and stuck to her face. Nate moved close to her, so close he felt her shaky breath on his skin. He slowly moved his hand into the water and brushed the strands of hair form her face. When he touched her she closed her eyes and took a deep breath. He bent his head down also closing his eyes. He rested his forehead on hers and ever so lightly their noses bumped. Her bright eyes popped open and she smiled wrapping her arms around his neck. Moving his hands in the water, Nate grabbed her waist and pulled her even closer. At first it was such a soft kiss he almost didn’t feel it. He pulled away slightly from her and looked at Tacy. She moved herself back to where they just were and tilted her head up. Taking the hint, Nate kissed her again.
Nate and Tacy sat under the willow tree holding each other drying off from their romantic swim. “What is your real eye color?” Nate whispered softly in her ear. She tilted her head toward him and looked right at him. Extremely carefully he pulled her bottom eye lid down and took out her pink contact. The brown color was almost dull compared to the pink but the brown was extravagant. Around the outside ring was a dark brown then as you came closer and closer to the pupil the color faded lighter. To Nate, Tacy looked just as beautiful.
“Why do you wear the contacts?” Nate asked.
“I love my eye color, it is the odd color in the family. But have to see with contacts and the clear kind made them look ugly. Pink was the only color contact that looked good on me.” She signed in response.
“You’re right. You look just as outstanding” Nate stated squeezing her arms. She carefully placed the contact back in her eye and looked up at Nate. That’s how they stayed. Staring at each other until Nate finally took her hand, no telling how much later, and led her back to the truck.

Tacy fell into a light sleep on the ride to her house. Her eyes fluttered open when the car stopped and she turned her head toward Nate. He ran his fingers through her hair and asked if she wanted him to walk her to the door. She signed no and squeezed his hand before exiting the car.

Celebrities of today are getting worse and worse. I don’t think that they understand exactly how much influence they have on people. Whenever they do something, the whole world is watching and some are influenced that whatever they are doing is acceptable. Why else would they do it?

Teenagers are regularly diagnosed with eating disorders. In many cases, they say that it was influenced by celebrities. Many models and celebrities today have started unhealthy habits. Some people refuse to believe that disorders such as bulimia and anorexia are unhealthy and can harm you because they want to look like today’s celebrities.

Another thing that teenagers are sometimes influenced to do by celebrities is drugs. Artists such as Amy Winehouse have even made songs about rehab and drug addiction. I think it is great that they have been to rehab, but it does not always keep them clean, especially when they do not stay for more than a day or two.

Another big problem with celebrities is their use of alcohol. In the past two years, there have been several cases in which celebrities have had a DUI charge. In addition, there have been many photographs of celebrities out partying while being under the influence of alcohol.

Some teenagers of today need help to learn that just because celebrities have an eating disorder, drug or alcohol addiction, or even a baby, it is not always OK to follow their example and strive to be just like them. There are also some celebrities whose morals set them apart and they have a positive influence on people. I just think that it is important for the youth of today to choose their celebrity role model carefully. You should first make sure that what they are doing is healthy and positive and that it will not get them into any trouble. If it gets them into trouble, it will probably get you into even more trouble.

Actually the "rehab' song was about NOT going to rehab. and relapse is often not a choice, it is a physiological failure to abstain from the object of your addiction.I think that you are exaggerating the influence of celebrities on youth. A celebrity alone will not make someone do something like vomit out thier has to be a perfect storm of different factors.(i.e prior body image issues) also, it is difficult to judge celebrities, we don't know them personally.

Invisible Bully

Little comments,
almost insignificant.
Sometimes only looks, eye-rollings, raised eyebrows,
Sometimes only “jokes”
they slither out of her mouth,
then they crawl under my skin.
They stay there,
and wait,
for when there is enough of them to blot out my self confidence.
In the mean time,
They eat away at my pride,
digging and scraping until there is nothing left.
If there is,
I don’t recognize it.
The invisible bully.
No one notices
except the victim.
Her comments are borderline between
and nice.
The victim could be teased for years,
feeling awful,
and still not know the source of their humiliation.
That is the mark of the invisible bully.

What a powerful poem.  It reminded me of how important it is to be mindful of how we respond to others.

This author really stirred up some feelings in me.  Compassion for him/her for any experience of bullying he/she has had, and the awkward embarrassment that perhaps I have bordered on being mean and nice in my life.

I Miss Her

I can still hear her laughing.
I can hear her cheering for her Cowboys.
I can still feel her hugs the warmth.
I hear her as she tells me everything will be okay after I would hurt myself or scold me after I've done something bad.
I can hear the old time movies she'd watch on her TV all day long.
I hear the multiple bags from her shopping all day with my mom.
I can see all the decorations she'd hang for the seasons.
I see her at my games in the stands cheering loudly and proudly no matter the score.
Less than a year ago pancreatic cancer took her away from me. It made me lose interest in everything I did. I wanted to stop playing sports because if she wasn't in the stands I didn't want to preform, But I knew she wouldn't have wanted that for me. Although I miss my Grandmother every single day I know she is still watching me at every game. Cheering loudly than everyone else.

George Osborne must draw meaningful growth promises from G7 leaders

The finance ministers and central bank bosses of the world’s seven leading nations jet into leafy Buckinghamshire on Friday for a two-day summit on the global economy.

George Osborne will be compering in the luxurious 18th-century halls of Hartwell House and, for once, he has a good story to tell.

The UK is “healing”, as he puts it. We may not be rebalancing, as Friday’s trade figures are likely to show, but at least the economy is eking out a little more growth than expected. And manufacturing, after nearly two years in the doldrums, is showing signs of life.

But he’s nervous. “Markets have calmed, and there are signs that this is feeding through into greater confidence,” Mr Osborne tells the G7, which might as well be renamed the world’s weak economy nations. “But we cannot take the global recovery for granted. We must guard against weakening our resolve to confront the collective challenges we face.”

The recovery, if the positive economic news flow of the past fortnight really is the start of one, is fragile at best. Confidence is building, and, as it does, growth will follow. But a new banking crisis in the eurozone, austerity fatigue, or just a dip in the data could puncture the sense of optimism and derail progress. Hence, the Chancellor’s claim that new thinking on monetary policy is needed “most urgently” of all.

A pledge to the markets that central banks will continue to do “whatever it takes” — to use Mario Draghi’s famous phrase — to get the global economy to “escape velocity” — to use Mark Carney’s less famous one — is essential to entrenching confidence.

That doesn’t necessarily mean more quantitative easing, a policy that looks dead in the UK after it was once again rejected by the Bank of England on Thursday, but more inventive measures. Mr Carney, who will be attending the meeting just weeks before he takes over from Sir Mervyn King, is bound to be a leading influence in the discussions.

A recovery feels tantalisingly close. Manufacturing is back out of its sectoral recession, the services sector is once again above its pre-crisis peak, inflation is relatively stable, and consumers are spending their meagre incomes. But the banks remain an obstacle, exports are picking up too slowly, and the UK is still mired in debt — both public and private.

Business holds the balance of power. If it believes the time has come to invest, that could kick off a virtuous circle that delivers the growth to resolve the debt problems. If Mr Osborne can corral his G7 colleagues into pledging to deliver meaningful promises on growth, that will keep hopes of a real recovery alive.

How will Sky tackle BT’s nifty football move?

Everyone was expecting BT to price its new sports channels very competitively, but the decision to give them away to broadband subscribers surprised even seasoned industry watchers — and perhaps executives at BSkyB, too.

BT executives were transparent about their motives: they want to use live football to retain their broadband customers and win back the many they have lost. The stakes are high and, while BSkyB is confident, they will have to look at cutting prices. After all, with household budgets under strain, football fans looking to save money will eye their Sky Sports subscriptions as a cash-strapped manager does a star player.

Some will take what we might call the Arsene Wenger approach and offload the big bills in the way that the Arsenal manager allowed Robin van Persie to exit the Emirates.

Until the arrival of BT Sport, the options for those fans was to continue paying for Sky Sports or cancel their subscription and head to the pub. It is a challenge to BSkyB on its home ground of a type it has not faced before.

Of course, there is no prospect of BSkyB matching BT’s offer. The premium it attracts for live sport remains the bedrock of its business, even if it appears that satellite television subscriptions have reached a plateau at around 10.4m households.

Like BT, BSkyB’s strategic priority is growing its broadband base, which pits the pair in direct competition, even if executives on either side emphasise the differences in their live sport propositions. So the question for BSkyB is: how do you compete with free?

Bookmaker boss offers shareholders a safe bet

As Manchester United fans digested Sir Alex Ferguson’s departure, at least one Scottish football boss was able to offer some cheer.

William Hill’s chief executive Ralph Topping, who is also the outgoing chairman of the Scottish Premier League, revealed he would stay on at Britain’s biggest bookmaker until at least the end of 2015.

The revelation prompted a spontaneous round of applause at the bookie’s annual meeting, as shareholders, who were only last year protesting against a one-off bonus to keep hold of Mr Topping until the end of 2013, welcomed two years of stability.

Mr Topping, who turns 62 in July, still has plenty of ambition for William Hill, but the company has also clearly learnt from its past mistakes.

Mr Topping was appointed chief executive in February 2008 after a torturous eight-month search for a replacement for the bookie’s previous boss, David Harding, who quit for personal reasons in 2007.

Mr Topping, who first joined William Hill as a “Saturday boy” in Glasgow while at university, wasn’t the board’s first, second or even third choice after the company approached almost every other executive in the betting industry — including, reportedly, Ladbrokes’ chief Richard Glynn while he was still at the helm of Sporting Index. When this newspaper asked Mr Topping at the time whether he was the “Steve McClaren option” for the job, the Scot replied that he would rather be compared to one of the successful Scottish football managers “like Sir Alex Ferguson”.

Since his appointment, William Hill’s market capitalisation has soared from £1.42bn to £3.67bn and Mr Topping believes it can reach £5bn in the next five years. It seems as though the betting boss may well get his wish.

Great Estates: the family seat that hosts Glastonbury performers, from Coldplay to The xx

The Deardens in the grounds of Pennard House Credit: Jay Williams

When the wind blows the right way, Harry and Georgina Dearden can sit on the terrace at Pennard House, gin and tonic in hand, and hear the lyrics float over from Glastonbury’s Pyramid stage.

The Grade II listed manor house in the village of East Pennard, Somerset, is a 10-minute walk down the hill from the festival site. Those who have experienced Glastonbury’s portable lavatories  might want to cover their ears as Georgina talks about the joys of popping home for some tasty food and a dip in Pennard’s freshwater lake before returning to the festival fray.

When you arrive, you’re probably going to get a greeting from our dog WallyHarry Dearden

For Harry, who grew up at Pennard House, there’s hardly been a year he hasn’t hiked the hill to Worthy Farm. As a teen he and friends would attempt to sneak over the then newly installed fence: “We’d fail, come back home, have another drink, and then try again,” he says. Today he can be found hanging out with children Charlie, three and Adalie, one, in the children’s field.

Deardens have been at Pennard since shortly after it was built in 1620. The later Georgian rooms were added in 1815 during the house’s heyday.

No strangers to entertaining, it wasn’t until 2012, when Harry took over from his parents, that the family was forced to consider commercial ways of keeping the home financially viable. Now they host weddings between March and December (45 of them in 2017) as well as writing and yoga retreats. Yet Pennard remains very definitely a family home; muddy boots and all. Harry often finds Charlie in the dining room during breakfast chatting away to guests.

“When you arrive, you’re probably going to get a greeting from our dog Wally,” says Harry. “People who are expecting a hotel might perhaps not be the right fit.”

Still, there have been commercial concessions. The huge, light bridal suite, complete with freestanding bath and handpainted murals by artist Frederick Wimsett was, during Harry’s childhood, home to a full-size snooker table. “It was this great, really dark, red room, but it didn’t really pay its way,” says the 40 year-old.

It’s hard to put your finger on but there’s something gentle about Pennard; people seem to congregate and get on. It’s conducive to being creativeGeorgina Dearden

The couple converted the former coachhouse and stables into a reception venue and on top of the seven guest bedrooms there are plans to renovate a further three next year. For the rest of their visitors, a field of teepee chime with the general festival vibe.

It is, says Georgina, Pennard’s down-to-earth quality that draws people to it. Every year, a week before Glastonbury, they host a songwriting course run by Chris Difford, formerly of the band Squeeze. Thirty or so songwriters from around the world come to stay and write, and at night they perform songs, written that day, in the coach house.

“We are blown away by what they create,” says Georgina. “It’s hard to put your finger on but there’s something gentle about Pennard; people seem to congregate and get on. It’s conducive to being creative.” And it is the huge kitchen, complete with Aga and the family’s shelves of copper pans and ancient jelly moulds, that is Pennard’s epicentre. “People just come in and hang out in the kitchen,” she says.

Pennard couldn’t be further from Georgina’s own world growing up. She trained as a clinical psychologist and her family lived in Hong Kong. Although she is a city girl, Pennard hasn’t turned out to be the isolated home she feared. “My mum comes over every summer and she thinks it’s busier than Hong Kong,” says the 37 year-old. Inevitably, in late June, they find themselves in the eye of the Glastonbury tornado. “You can’t get into the village without a pass,” says Harry.

Still, they are on hand for friends and family seeking safe passage to Pilton, and Harry recalls how he would wake up when he was younger to a field full of cars. “My father used to go around collecting money for the church.”

Pennard absorbs people and it’s much more fun when it’s fullHarry Dearden

For the past five years they’ve let the house and teepee field to a record company during the festival. Acts such as Vampire Weekend and The xx have stayed under Pennard’s roof.

Harry recalls how Coldplay stayed with them, before they became famous. “We had a parrot at the time who used to sing back to you, and there was one of those classic moments as my mother, standing in the kitchen next to the parrot, asked Chris Martin, ‘Can you sing at all?’. He replied, ‘Um, sort of…’”

On occasion, the wedding and music worlds have collided, like the time a bridal party found George Ezra was an unexpected guest staying in the attic. “They were so excited, they had him on their wedding playlist,” says Harry.

Not content with the hard work and success of the past five years, Harry has plans to start turning some of the 700 tons of apples grown in Pennard’s 130 acres of orchards and currently sold to the cider mill in Shepton Mallet, into their own scrumpy. “We also have a beautiful Victorian walled garden and it used to provide not only for the house, but the whole village. It would be nice to grow enough for the weddings and also make a little cider.”

Harry is inspired by the fact that his family is still as involved in the life of East Pennard as they were hundreds of years ago. His parents live in a cottage next door, his sister recently bought a house in the village and his two younger brothers regularly visit.

“Everyone always comes back here eventually,” Harry says. “The house is what everyone gravitates towards; it’s the focal point of everything and we naturally find ourselves as the hosts. But Pennard absorbs people and it’s much more fun when it’s full.”

TIO Left Coast So Far: Oysters & Wyeth, A Pearl

On our road trip to the Left Coast, so far we have enjoyed fabulous food (earth-to-plate at Seattle’s wonderful Terra Plata; oysters harvested a few yards away at a roadside restaurant in Hama Hama, Washington), also food for thought, including a pearl of a show at the Seattle Art Museum featuring the work of Andrew Wyeth. We are writing this post from our hotel room in Cannon Beach, a picturesque resort town on the boast of northwest Oregon. (See Clint Viebrock’s related story about our perfect road trip to Cannon Beach.)

Dead leaves float together in infinity behind a sheet of ice, the barrier between the world of the painting and the viewer, creating the illusion of an all-over abstraction. (A departure for the artist known for depicting the real nitty gritty?)

Thin Ice by Andrew Wyeth.

Thin Ice.

A tempera by Andrew Wyeth, (1917-2009), one of the best-known American artists of the mid-20th century. The artist’s favorite subjects were the land and people around him, in his hometown of Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, and at his summer home in Cushing, Maine. Wyeth is often quoted as quipping: “I paint my life.”

Wyeth painted Thin Ice at age 31 (in 1948), the same year he created his best known image, Christina’s World and a short 11 years after his career as an artist was launched with a one-man show at New York City’s Macbeth Galley, where all of his pieces sold immediately.

MOMA’s Christina’s World by Andrew Wyeth.

Thin Ice is on display for the very first time in the U.S. – it sold off the easel to a Japanese collector –  in the sprawling Andrew Wyeth retrospective at the Seattle Art Museum.

The ambitious show – over 100 images, watercolors (dry-point and traditional), drawings, and egg tempera paintings, created over a seven+decade-long career –  should soften, if not dismiss altogether, the regular blows from erudite pens Wyeth’s work tended to elicit in the past – at least among the cognescenti. It will definitely shore up the artist’s many admirers, regular folks who don’t give a hoot about the fact Wyeth never had avant-garde cred.

Right after WWII, when the center of the art world shifted from Paris to New York, a loose, disparate confederacy of artists known collectively as Abstract Expressionists were making a very big deal (and splash) about the importance of the action of painting, art for art’s sake, but Wyeth just kept on keeping on, doing his own thing, painting his moody pastorals, external and internal landscapes, which tell undecorated truths about his surroundings, his friends, and his lovers (like Helga?, still a debate).

Thin Ice. The words define Wyeth’s stature among many major critics of the 20th century, who considered him Listerine, the artist they loved to hate, a hyper-realist in a world turning increasingly abstract. Which meant encapsulating regional values as the artist did was out of fashion.

“I think he’s O.K.—he is sophisticated although kind of boring. Dead and dry,” The New Yorker’s Peter Schjeldahl once wrote.

And from one of my mentors, art historian and critic Robert Hughes: “(his work suggests) a frugal, bare-bones rectitude, glazed by nostalgia but incarnated in real objects, which millions of people look back upon as the lost marrow of American history.”

However, in sharp contrast, according to several sources, in his diary, the great connoisseur of Italian art, Bernard Berenson, wrote admirably about Andrew Wyeth. And when Winston Churchill, a great statesman, true, but also a high-level amateur painter, visited Boston, he made arrangements to have Wyeth watercolors hang in his hotel room at the Ritz.

The rural poet Robert Frost was also big fan, which is no big surprise: the trajectories of the two artist-celebrities was aligned. Both men lived to be very old– Wyeth died at age 91, still painting. Both were embraced by the Kennedy administration: Frost read a poem at the Kennedy inauguration in 1961 and Wyeth was awarded the Presidential Medal for Freedom. Both won Pulitzer prizes. Both were thought to embrace and reflect rural values in their work.

Interestingly another great Wyeth admirer was Elaine de Kooning, an art critic, painter and wife of one of the greatest and best-known Abstract Expressionists, Willem de Kooning.

And New York’s Museum of Modern Art’s legendary founding director, a taste-maker if there ever was one, Alfred Barr, who also an admirer.

We visit MOMA often. Fact is some of the largest crowds can be found huddling around Christina’s World, the image of a woman with a degenerative muscular disorder, Anna Christina Olsen, a friend of the artist and the artist’s wife Betsy, who is making her way home without a wheelchair.

Barr acquired that painting for his museum in 1949 and Thomas Hoving, who later became director of New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, purportedly said he would sometimes visit MOMA just to study that one painting alone.

Christina’s World became first widely distributed as color posters and it became a popular addition to college dorm rooms.

Christina’s World is undeniably the image that made Wyeth famous, but other works  – A Crow Flew By; The Clearing, the portrait series known as “The Helga Pictures,” portraits of Siri Erickson; Snow Hill, Wyeth’s Chadds Ford models, living and dead, dancing on Kuerner’s Hill; delicate gems of watercolors such as Winter Bees; portraits of his friends who lived in “Little Africa,” painted with dignity and respect in keeping with the Civil Rights movement, happening at the very same time  – also support what Life magazine said of the artist in 1948:

“If there is such a thing as a purely American tradition in Art, it is represented at its best in the straightforward canvases of Andrew Wyeth.”

Touring room after room, we were fully engaged in Wyeth’s art and the stories they tell of place and people, many of whom became famous for the simple fact of being his models.

Winter is Always

And while it is true the artist is a hard-core realist and that his palette tends towards bleak earth tones, (which naysayers have disparagingly described as “baby poop” and “mud”), it is worth noting that when Wyeth first began making art in around 1937, his bravura, lyrical watercolors of beaches in Maine featured the intensely beautiful colors of the land and the water.

But is does seem that after his father, illustrator N.C. Wyeth died an unkind death in 1945  – his car got stuck and he was killed by a train –  color seemed to have been drained out of the young Wyeth. From then on, his palette was subdued, his images, however, portraying a wide spectrum of emotions from abject loneliness to a dignity that comes from self-awareness and acceptance.

The Drifter

In 1963, Andrew Wyeth appeared on the cover of Time magazine. Eight years later, Life anointed him “America’s preeminent painter.”

And today, as the crowds at the show at SAM suggest, Wyeth’s star is on the rise again, in part thanks to his many fans, the ones who remained devoted, plus adventurous young artists of today interested in exploring themes of racial discrimination, politics, cruelty, and mortality, issues Wyeth addressed so beautifully in his work. Issues beyond mere shapes and forms that were the essence of the art-for-art’s-sake engine, the cri de coeur of the art world in 20th century.

And for the record, legions of young critics and art historians are in lockstep with those fans and emerging artists. For them, for us, Andrew Wyeth is an original and important figure in art history, whose images have had a profound influence not just on painting, but also, as is pointed out in every room of the show, in the worlds of photography and filmmaking as well.

Based on a popular Japanese comic strip, Hong Kong's high-flying martial arts action hero Jackie Chan stars as private Ryu Saeba in City Hunter. Hired to find the runaway daughter of a Japanese publishing tycoon, Ryu's first impulse is to turn the job down - until he sees a picture of the beautiful Shizuko (Kumiko Goto). Hot on her heels, Ryu tracks her down on board a cruise ship, and much to the annoyance of his jealous female sidekick Kaori (Joey Wong) the womanizing Ryu seems more interested in catching Shizuko's attention than returning her safely to her father. However, Ryu's romantic plans quickly go astray when a gang of ruthless criminals hijack the ship and hold the passengers to ransom. To save the day Jackie Chan's unique action style reigns supreme in a series of brilliantly conceived fight sequences as Ryu swings into action to dispatch the bad guys and rescue the goergeous Shizuko!

With a British adieu to EU, it's farewell to a Fed rate hike for now

Email Print

Federal Reserve Board Chair Janet Yellen testifies before the Senate Banking Committee at Capitol Hill in Washington, U.S., June 21, 2016. Federal Reserve Board Chair Janet Yellen testifies before the Senate Banking Committee at Capitol Hill in Washington, U.S., June 21, 2016.

The U.S. Federal Reserve, already undecided on when next to raise interest rates, now has one more reason to wait: Britain's vote on Thursday to leave the European Union.
Not that the Fed needed another reason.
Weaker-than-expected growth in U.S. jobs in recent months had already forced U.S. central bankers to put off a rate hike at their meeting last week.
But while data due early next month on June U.S. payrolls growth could help clear up doubts about the strength of the labor market, the political and economic consequences of Britain's exit from the EU will take months or years to unfold.
Financial markets have already spoken, emphatically, in the hours since the 'leave' outcome in the so-called Brexit referendum became evident. U.S. equity index futures plunged and investors rushed for the safety of U.S. Treasuries, pushing the yield on the benchmark 10-year note below 1.5 percent, nearly a four-year low. The dollar rose by more than 3 percent at one stage, the most in a day since 1978.
Interest rate futures markets rallied so hard that they have erased any probability of an increase in the Fed's benchmark overnight lending rate for both this year and next. In fact, they are pricing a possibility that the federal funds target rate may be lower in December than it is now, which is around 0.38 percent on average.
"It adds weight to the camp that the Fed would be on hold. A July (hike) is definitely off the table," Mike Baele, managing director with the private client reserve group at U.S. Bank in Portland, Oregon, said of the latest Brexit results.
Brexit on their minds
The Fed's recent playbook suggests central bankers will opt for caution.
Market volatility in the past year, a stronger U.S. dollar in the past couple of years that has crimped exporters profits, low oil prices and inflation, and weaker economic growth in U.S. trading partners have kept Fed monetary policy on hold at least twice in the past year.
Fed officials' comments in the run-up to this week's British referendum signal this time will be no different.
A Brexit could "negatively affect financial conditions and the U.S. economic outlook," Fed Chair Janet Yellen said a few days before the referendum.
"Financial conditions could tighten," said Fed Governor Jerome Powell said the day before the vote, adding that "global developments, global weakness ... are really important for the setting of U.S. monetary policy."
Neither, however, gave any indication how big an impact the decision might have, and the Fed has no plans for an emergency meeting in the event of a leave vote, Chair Janet Yellen said this week.
"It depends on how bad things would get and for how long they would stay bad," said Roberto Perli, a partner at Cornerstone Macro LLC and a former Fed staffer. "The problem with trying to handicap outcomes here is that there are too many unknowable unknowns."
A British departure from the EU would deprive the 28-member EU of its second-biggest economy and one of its two main military powers, sending political shockwaves across the continent. The "Leave" campaign says Britain's economy would benefit from a Brexit. The "Remain" camp says it would cause financial chaos and impoverish the nation for years or even decades to come.
Global sensitivities
Joe Gagnon, a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, expected the Fed to raise rates once this year, so long as the British opted to remain in the European Union.
But a Brexit, he said, will throw the U.K. into recession, slowing U.S. exports, payrolls expansion, economic growth to "the equivalent of at least a 25 basis point hike" in Fed interest rates, Gagnon said. "It could mean no rate hikes this year."
If the slowdown deals a severe blow to Europe, which in Gagnon's view is a less likely outcome, the Fed could be forced to delay interest rate rises further.
However, not all subscribe to that view. Capital Economics economist Paul Ashworth, for instance, predicts a "trivial" impact on the U.S. economy, given that U.S. exports to the U.K. account for less than half a percent of GDP.
"Leave or remain, this probably isn't going to affect Fed policy," he said.
Yet global events have repeatedly stayed the hand of the Yellen Fed, which is already loathe to do anything to curtail what has been a modest recovery from a deep recession in 2008.
In late 2015 the Federal Reserve deferred an expected interest rate rise after global markets swooned in response to an unanticipated slowdown in China's economy.
Earlier this year, Fed officials cited tighter financial conditions brought on by further heightened worries about China as another reason for caution.
Eventually, however, U.S. employment, wage rises, inflation and economic growth will likely enable the Fed to normalize interest rates, even though the full impact of Brexit won't be known for years.
"(Fed policymakers) can’t just put policy on hold for several years – that’s not going to happen," Gagnon said.

Patch: Using --no-comments with pg_dump

Recently I submitted a patch for review that allows a non-superuser to practically use a backup taken from pg_dump.

Currently it is a kludge (and well known at that - Ref 1 / Ref 2 / Ref 3 / Ref 4) but since it's (the ideal solution) too big a byte to chew and not in high-demand, it has seen little to no traction in the past decade.

This patch should allow the above. But more importantly, it should also allow regular users of AWS RDS Postgres as well as Google Cloud Postgres databases (who do not get SuperUser access by-design) to reliably use the backups, instead of tinkering with the backup SQLs and remove things like COMMENT ON EXTENSION for it to even run during restoration.

The bad news is that since Postgres 10 has already branched off, I doubt this would see the light of the day (if at all) any time before Postgres 11 (unless there is consensus that it's helpful enough and gets 'back-patched' to Postgres 10 to be released around September 2017).

Update (3rd Oct 2017):
This is now a part of my PsqlForks branch - RDSPostgres. You can check the related commit here.

horntail it is :)

I had been planning to contribute to Postgres Buildfarm by running it on one of my VMs and finally got that done... and horntail it is.

A few things to note, before it fades from (my) memory:
  • It (obviously) requires quite a bunch of libraries, especially if you're using the defaults (for e.g. with ssl / krb5 etc..)
    • You may either disable some of those exotic options (not ideally recommended)
    • Or, you may use a silo'ed VM just for this purpose so that it doesn't slow your regular work
    • I did neither (of the above) but didn't care about performance of this VM
      • Probably would enable more Options / Branches down the line and re-submit
  • My distro was Ubuntu and so YMMV, but the packages weren't very obvious. If you see something fail and you check logs, you'd see that 'abc' was missing, but wouldn't have the faintest idea which package satisfied that
    • Some hiccup missing libraries were (These may be obvious for most, but were new to me ):
      • gss_init_sec_context
      • msgfmt
      • tclConfig
    • It'd be good if someone could catalog the packages required
      • For all Unix variants - obviously easier said that done, but
        • It's possible that there may be more people willing (like me) but unable to scale all the walls
      • At least the super-set of what's required when all flags are enabled, from which people could try what's needed for his / her set of enabled flags
  • As it always is, the documentation is relatively clear, just that persistence (especially for exotic Linux variants / issues) is needed in large quantities.
All the best :)

Mini Freddie

She may be spotted more with mom, but Charlotte Grace is a total daddy's girl. The 18-month-old was seen on the set of mom Sarah Michelle Gellar's new show, Ringer, in New York City on Thursday. Dressed in a warm sweater and jeggings, it was impossible to ignore Charlotte's resemblance to dad Freddie Prinze Jr. Now all we need is a family picture to go gaga over.

Chipless RFID Market increasingly witnessing the introduction of innovative chipless RFID systems

August 28 11:34 2017
Radio-frequency identification (RFID) uses of a wireless non-contact system that in turn uses electromagnetic fields with the level of radio frequency to transmit data.

Chipless RFIDs, the systems that use radiofrequency energy to communicate data but do not store serial numbers in the transponder like RFID systems with silicon microchips do, are considered the next big opportunity for the global RFID market as the a highly digitized world demands means of tagging all things possible. Chipless RFIDs suit well to this requirement as they are very cheap and convenient as compared to conventional RFID tags. While not many leading RFID companies are focusing on development in the field of chipless RFID, many companies in the fields of packaging, printing, and electronics are actively leading development of the technology through R&D efforts.

The market for chipless RFIDs is increasingly witnessing the introduction of innovative chipless RFID systems. Certain chipless RFID tags in the market use materials some form of conductive polymers instead of the conventional silicon microchips. Some varieties use materials capable of reflecting back a portion of the radio waves radiated at them. A computer gathers the waves reflected back as a snapshot and uses it like biometric data to identify the tagged object. Some companies operating in the field of chipless RFID are also experimenting with implanting radio frequency reflecting fibers in documents to prevent their unauthorized photocopying.

There are also some varieties of inks in the global market capable of reflecting radio waves at specific frequencies. The most common use of these inks has been seen in the field of agriculture wherein farmers can tattoo chipless RFID transponders with the help of these inks on animals for the purpose of identification.

Chipless RFID: General Outline

Radio-frequency identification (RFID) uses of a wireless non-contact system that in turn uses electromagnetic fields with the level of radio frequency to transmit data. The data is sent from a tag which is attached with an object, for automatic tracking and identification. Some tags are given power by the electromagnetic fields that are then used to read them, and hence need no battery. Other types of RFID use a local power source and send out radio waves. The tag consists of electronically stored data which could be received from up to more than a few meters away.

Chipless RFID technologies have the capability to create demand for trillions of tags yearly, through item level tagging, thereby creating more opportunity, and as a result the chip RFID suppliers are continuously working towards developing these technologies. Printers, electronics and packaging manufacturers have so far led the global chipless RFID market in terms of usage as well as rate of development. The importance of chipless RFID tags is set to increase even further for them through the implementation of low-cost RFID tags integrated with low-price electronics such as displays and sensors.

Chipless RFID: Trends and Prospects

Due to the recent technological developments, chipless RFID tags have now become affordable, and can be attributed to its growth. Chipless RFID are tied to a simplified production technology, which minimizes the production time and is well-matched with the pre-existing infrastructure, thus saving the cost of establishing new system. However, the low efficiency of chipless RFID in supply chain could act as a challenge for its market growth.

Request TOC of the report @

The U.S. is currently leading the RFID business and market share. The manufacturers of chipless RFID have understood the requirement for low priced and efficient solutions, for tracking and tracing of goods for several applications. These applications include smart card, retail, supply chain, and others. Chipless RFID offers solution such as anti-counterfeiting and asset tracking to stop the shrinkage in retail. Shrink in retail generally occurs by any kind of theft or misplacement of good without notification. Moreover, it helps improve the efficiency and productivity of the system. In addition, it is also helping smart card penetrate further in the market by offering more security to smart cards. The government of countries such as Nigeria, China, Singapore and United Kingdom have already made use of RFID compulsory in various projects such as counterfeiting, citizen identification and others, thereby giving a boost to the growth of chipless RFID.

Chipless RFID: Key Segments

The common application of chipless RFID can be found in supply chain, aviation, smart cards, retail, public transit, and healthcare. Defense, library, and animal tagging are a few of the modern application of chipless RFID.

Chipless RFID: Key Players

Key market players of Chipless RFID include Alien Technology Corporation, Confidex Ltd., Impinj Incorporation, Intermec Inc., Soligie Inc., Toppan forms Co.Ltd., Basf S.E., Dai Nippon Printing Company Limited, kovio inc., Inksure Technologies Inc., and Zebra Technologies Corporation among others.

Dig reveals 1,500-year-old midden near Barrow

October 4th, 2013 | By Abra Stolte-Patkotak Print this article   Email this article

For much of this summer, Anne Jensen and her crew have been working on an archaeological dig at Walakpa, 13 miles south of Barrow. Discovered around mid-July of this year by ATV'ers driving along the coastline, the grouping of sod houses became exposed from violent fall storms last year.

After reports started pouring in to various organizations of a sod house with exposed wood and many artifacts lying on the beach, the necessary actions were put into place to prepare a proper archaeological dig.

Through collaboration between Ukpeagvik Iñupiat Corporation (UIC), UIC Science, the North Slope Borough, and UMIAQ LLC, the dig at Walakpa received enough funding to begin excavation in mid-August. While the first two weeks involved mostly removal of top layers of sod, the next month was devoted to clearing out and deciphering the many layers of the sod structure that balances precariously above the coast of the Arctic Ocean.

Jensen has lived in Alaska for over two decades, and specializes in Arctic archaeology.?As lead scientist at UIC Science LLC in Barrow and with more than 35 years of archaeological experience, Jensen is very familiar with excavations in harsh climates. Due to very brief summers and early freeze-up, excavating sites in the Arctic requires dedicated and expeditious work.

"Arctic archaeology is pretty labor intensive and expensive," she says.

Thanks to a RAPID grant from the National Science Foundation, Jensen will be able to devote part of this winter to lab work, seeking carbon dating of artifacts found at the site. Most of this will be done by comparing caribou bone to ivory artifacts such as simple ivory harpoons and spear tips.

Faced with many obstacles such as rainy weather, high tides, procuring ATV's, and enough able bodies to excavate, the excavation moved forward through all of the difficulties and digging began at the end of July. After setting up a tent for equipment and staking off the area, layer by layer was revealed until a wooden floor was exposed and several pieces of driftwood were removed in order to check their rings for carbon dating to establish an approximate date of the site.

While the current estimated age of the sod house places it possibly as early as 500 A.D., this particular area has been inhabited by Iñupiat people for at least 3,500 years. In 1968, Dennis Stanford led a partial excavation of a group of sod homes in the same area, albeit further back on the tundra and away from the beach.

This summer, Jensen and her crew were able to establish that the area they were working on is a midden, or garbage pit. While a garbage pit may not sound very important or appealing, this kind of well-preserved ancient find provides an extraordinarily valuable snapshot into the history of Iñupiat people. While oral and written history is important, archaeology provides a very unique perspective on lessons we may not otherwise learn.

"There are some things that they don't teach in school," Jensen said. "Some things you can learn from archaeology that don't really get passed on in stories because they're so routine."

Looking forward to next summer, Dr. Jensen is considering ways to expedite the process at the fragile and exposed site. Some ideas for making more headway on excavation are camping at the site and getting field workers to come in from places outside of Alaska. Students coming to Barrow for field school will no doubt leave with incredible insight on the importance of the subsistence way of lifestyle in the Arctic. Setting up an exchange like this may be possible through working with Ilisagvik College in Barrow and getting grants to get students out in the field.

The dig at Walakpa is protected by state and federal law and by the Archaeological Resources Protection Act. At the close of the season, the archaeologists were careful to protect the site for next summer.

Steps to ensure that the site remains uncompromised until next summer involved waiting for the ground to freeze up, laying down a layer of insulation, covering it with a tarp, securing the tarp with stakes and rocks and building a makeshift barricade against potentially violent sea storms.

While the threat of Mother Nature wiping out the site this fall is real, and archeologists and those interested in the valuable information the site contains can only hope that it will remain intact so that further insight into the history of Iñupiat people may be gained.
