BIS asking for your views on recycling targets

You will all have received your reminder regarding submitting your recycling targets and hopefully you have all now responded as the deadline is July 1st. If you haven’t you had better get your skates on. Also, within the reminder letter to ATFs was a request by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) for suggestions as to how the system could be improved. The letter read:

I will say the odds are better in the atheist camps. It's like going to Alaska in the 70s! :) However, I still seem to be single.... humm....
Comment by Earther on October 3, 2010 at 8:41pm
It is not really too off topic if you stem the importance of creating a world of opportunity for all and not for the few. I enjoy being fruitful when I can and having like minded people who make laws, keep our health, build our houses and teach our children is important.
Comment by david perry on October 3, 2010 at 12:01pm
That rather brings the discussion full circle.
That one has certain prerequisites for what they require from any relationship is of course a normal state of affairs so to speak. There isn't much else to add.
One thing though, about caring whether ones doctor is religious. That can make a difference especially if one is a woman(or not, one scenario comes to mind- what if something immediately useful comes out of stem cell research and say a devoutly catholic doctor refuses to provide that treatment?) and that doctor has religious reasons for refusing to perform certain procedures. Medical ethics and Religion can be a very important issue. (might be a good discussion topic on it's own someplace on the Nexus)
But that's something which is getting way off topic.
Bon Chance Earther.
Comment by Earther on October 3, 2010 at 10:00am
Welcome all of you to the conversation and thanks for your thoughts. I want to comment on David's comment about his questions to my original blog question. I think my reason for asking about how many women are actually atheist compared to men is not to put up my "Atheist Single Man" flag, so to speak. My reason is because I think it is important for me to learn how others cope with what I see as a real challenge. In my case the challenge is finding out how to choose a relationship within my reach. Some people choose to accept having a relationship with a person who does not share the same belief and also having children in that relationship that may or may not result in their beliefs being the same as yours. Some people do not think it is a problem and some do. If I get sick, I do not care if my doctor is religious or not, I care if the doctor will make me well or not. In finding a relationship though, I do have concerns in my future partner's ideas about life and what the outcome of our actions may be to the next generation. The challenge of selecting a partner with in the boundaries of being 1. Woman, because that is my preference 2. Atheist, becuase I think I would quarrel less and find more in common -- is like sharing a peanutbutter and jelly sandwich with a million people. This leads into the next observable question. Why are there seemingly less women who are like minded in belief and why is that a problem for me. I am sure there are those of you who share these thoughts and I believe your thoughts are valid to my decision making. Kelly M says there should be more opportunities for us to meet and socialize. Most recently I had a woman comment in person to me about being single "do you go to church, you can meet girls there", I told her that I was a non-believer and do not go to church and she said "Oh, you are looking for the wrong kind of woman then" and I replied "no, I am looking for the right kind of woman" and her reply was, " well, I guess you could marry a Christian woman" I laughed and left it at that. This is the kind of obstical that I am faced with everyday. If I do find a woman who is atheist and is a wonderful "match" for me, then wow, that is amazing. It is amazing for anyone who finds a compatible match that produces a relationship that has lasting power. My last point is, does this all matter? Does it matter that atheist have very few people to choose partners in? Well, that is life isn't it? How do we as people who find being atheist important for some reason raise the next generation. Personally, I do wish there were as many atheist woman out there as christian women. I came up with the A/N ration by the member search page, I entered in F and got a number and then M and got a number and made a quick calculation. It is approximately 2 to 1. Other than that I have seen some general calculations of statistics on the internet, and yes - people do lie, people also don't say who they are and keep it private. I think the woman I would like to live with is one that does not hide from being a non-believer but also not one who politicizes it to the point of it bringing pain and suffering. I try not to stir up problems that can distract what is important to survival and mental ease. The underlying belief of a person while trying to survive and have mental ease is the root of that person. I find it difficult to settle for a relationship that does not have some of these basic qualities. With all this said, I have still not made any final decisions on what is best for me.
Comment by Bimmerella on October 1, 2010 at 8:32pm
I dunno....I'm an atheist and I live in the bible belt, so that makes it doubly hard to find available like minded men. I think we need to have more social events and get togethers. I know right now in east TN where I live, we are trying to get together and more active. I know that is kind of a lame answer, but I definitely think there needs to be more opportunities for us all to meet and socialize. I think women have the same frustration as men do. It's hard to actually meet a fellow atheist, and couple that with finding one you are attracted to, and we have an exponentially more difficult task than most folks......
Comment by Phil on September 30, 2010 at 7:43pm
I knew you were out there. As I said, my experience is that there are as many no-woo females as males. And we're findable. Where do we concentrate? A combination of tip-offs - politics, reading habits, hobbies, type of work or college major, postponement of or avoidance of marriage and children, choice of residence - can bring you together. It was a pleasure to find intelligent women who were happy to find me. 50:50.
Comment by Phil on September 30, 2010 at 6:28pm
Most people would call probably me a militant or "new" atheist. I'm not an apologist and I don't socialize with the religious. Always have been one. I live with an atheist. Don't set fire to things though.
Comment by david perry on September 30, 2010 at 5:55pm
@Phil: My response is "ditto". Politicians pay attention to polls, most people don't. Men are far more likely to join things, and women are smarter and quieter about it.
I haven't yet encountered any militant atheists on the Nexus.
Know any?
Comment by david perry on September 30, 2010 at 5:46pm
Earther, so what if the ratio of men to women on the Nexus is 2 to 1, what I was trying to get at was the idea that it may not the same for the population in general. You can take all the surveys you want, but as Dr. House says: "people lie". And I'm certain(without hard data of course)that there are a lot more people who will not admit to at least some doubts about god, and religion in general for any number of reasons. If you're looking for a date on the Nexus, you might be in the wrong place. Not only that, how did you arrive at that ratio on the Nexus? A lot of people here use screen names anyway, so unless you have admin status here, I don't see how you can be so sure.
Part of the reason many of us are on the Nexus in the first place is to address the issue of how people in general are treated by organized religion. I fail to see how gender issues here are that much different than in the world at large. Men are joiners, women less so. Any number of generalizations a sociological poll can make are simply that, generalizations.
The people on this site are not a representative sample of the population, it isn't Facebook for non-believers. The ratio of men to women who are proclaimed atheists is 2 to 1, so the survey says. We've all been to church for the most part, I for one don't recall there being a crowd of single guys in a set of pews off to the side. The middle east is another story, but is irrelevant to the issue at hand. You've noticed a dearth of eligible female atheists.
So what?
You deal with what is, not what you wish it was.
Comment by Phil on September 30, 2010 at 5:33pm
I've never been unable to find atheist women. The women I've known, however, generally, wouldn't be likely to join A/N. One or two were militant, but most weren't. They avoided the unpleasant and made smart quiet choices. Men seem to get on the internet and hoot. Women seem less inclined to. I'd guess a 50/50 split.

Name: Adena Gnaea C. (she hate her third name but because she hadn't have any friend everybody called her Gnaea Crispus)
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Species: Lampad
Sponsor: Hera
Her cress id the symbol of their convention. If she lost it, she dies.
Personality: The most important and main thing is that Adena is sarcastic. Very sarcastic. I mean she would even attack Hera, if it would make her laugh. And that is why the goddess decided to help her. She is left handed, so she don't miss the creativity; but usulally she end up to burn some buildig (within her special heated arrows). She hate every single love moment until she saw her dream-prince (don't konwn yet).
History: Adena was born as a unexpected child. After her birth her human father left her nymph mother who was so hopeless that she left her in the woods. This is where Hecate's nymphes found her. They brought up her with the goal that she will be a perfect servant to their goddess. However when she burned up the half of the palace, they left her in the wood. This is where Hera found her and gave her a 'chance'. She can participate in the Athenaeum of War, and she stays alive, or she dies.
Preferred Weapon: Mainly her unnamed sword. She really would like to use her bow, but she's the biggest antitalentum.
Ability: She use her emerald fire (which is emerald green, because Hera transformed it), with is powerful and undestroyable... just almost unusable (have to got a really powerful fire magic and how to say... Adena is really far from the perfect fire magic).
Rituals and Temple Works
Battle Strategy
Magic: Fire
Healing (i don't really know why... ok, for have some failed moment)
Fightning: Sword and Daggers
Fightning: Archery
Roommate: -

NOTE: She weared this dress when Hera found her. After she changed it to sg easier.

October 25th Dev update!

Hi everyone!
It’s been a while since i last posted here but i have been quite busy working on the game.
I am happy to say that everything is going fine even though i did understimate the amount of work still needed to complete the game.
As a result, the game will probably not be coming out until early 2017 at best.
However, this is good news, as the enemies are nearly done and most of what is left is bosses and then finishing the level designs. The next part will be balancing the game out while looking for any bugs, before we get the game to beta status and allow people to help us fight off bugs and balancing issues.

Here is a preview of one of the latest boss i have been working on… the “Prophet”.

And another little animated preview of the maintenance bot that built the AI base in the Cylon sector (he’s the midboss):

DreadStar midboss preview
Maintenance Bot animation

Stay tuned !

Greenlight campaign for Dreadstar !

The greenlight campaign for DreadStar: The Quest for Revenge is up !
You can vote for the game here:
Steam Greenlight

There is also a new trailer video that you can watch:

It has been quite a busy month and i have to admit i haven’t updated the website enough (tried some twitter plugin to autopost but it didn’t end well xD), but it is a struggle to manage facebook, twitter, google+, indieDB, steam and all those together. I will try to post more as development goes on.
Right now, we are working on finalizing the alpha demo that will include the first level (complete first level!).
Stay tuned for more news on that in the next few days and weeks.

#amreading The Last Train, Michael Pronko

A slight change of setting - moving to Tokyo and a book by an American Professor of Literature and author resident in Tokyo.

From the Blurb:

Detective Hiroshi Shimizu investigates white collar crime in Tokyo. He’s lost his girlfriend and still dreams of his time studying in America, but with a stable job, his own office and a half-empty apartment, he’s settled in.

His mentor Takamatsu calls him out to the grisly murder of an American businessman. When Takamatsu disappears, Hiroshi teams up with ex-sumo wrestler Sakaguchi. They scour Tokyo’s sacred temples, corporate offices and industrial wastelands to find Takamatsu, and a woman driven to murder who seems to have it all.

After years in America lost in neat, clean spreadsheets, Hiroshi confronts the stark realities of the biggest city in the world. Inside information can travel in a flash from the top investment firms to the bottom of the working world. Street-level punks and teenage hostesses sell their souls for a small cut of highly lucrative land deals. Their target, an ex-hostess, wants to extract her final revenge—which might be him.

Pedagogy in Support of 21st Century Skills

Drawing on research in the learning sciences, the development of 21st Century Skills is correlated with the broad family of social-constructivist approaches that challenge educators to move the degree of directedness from a direct instruction model towards more inquiry-based approaches, such as problem-based, project-based, and authentic learning opportunities (Bereiter & Scardamalia, 2008; ; Darling-Hammond, 2015; Guerriero, 2017; Herrington, Reeves, & Oliver, 2010; Hoadley, 2011; Laurillard, 2002; Hung & Khine, 2006; Mishra, 2012).

Active Approaches to Learning

The correlation between such active approaches to learning and the development of 21st Century skills is precisely that these approaches require agency and self-regulation of the learner which is simply not fostered if the learner remains a passive recipient of content knowledge. It is when the learner engages in inquiry into an authentic activity and is tasked with sharing his acquired knowledge in a polished product or performance, that information, communication, technology and media literacies are fostered.

The Collaborative Construction of Knowledge

Moreover, research in the learning sciences advocates for the collaborative construction of knowledge through cooperative learning opportunities and the development of a learning community. This is in part to acknowledge the social nature of learning (Bandura, 1989; Dewey, 1938 ; Salomon, 1997; Vygotsky,1980) but also to foster the social and cross-cultural skills among learners. The collaborative construction of knowledge further acknowledges that creative solutions and complex problem-solving, two central 21st century skills, benefit from multiple perspectives and diversity of opinions. Collaboration, “the ability to work effectively and respectfully with diverse teams and to make the necessary compromises to accomplish a common goal is a key competency for the future” (P21, 2010).

Learner-centered Design

A learning design that aims to foster 21st Century skills will thus provide active and authentic learning experiences that hold the nature of learning to heart: learner-centeredness, the social nature of learning, responsiveness to motivation and emotions, sensitivity to individual differences, and horizontal connectedness (Hanna, David & Francisco, 2010). It achieves this by fostering learning activities and assessments guided by the principles of authentic e-learning (Herrington, Oliver, & Reeves, 2010): real-world relevance, ill-defined problems, sustained investigations, multiple roles and perspectives, the collaborative construction of knowledge, interdisciplinary perspectives, integrated assessments, and lots of opportunities for reflection and articulation. If the development of 21st Century Skills is indeed tied to these principles, then these have to be taken into consideration in the design of virtual learning environments in which an increasing number of learners spend their time.

5 dirty tricks car dealers use on unsuspecting shoppers

Because cars tend to have more problems as they get older and see more use, buying used cars tends to carry with it a certain degree of risk. Although this risk is always present, it can be minimised somewhat by dealing only with reputable used car dealers and also taking along a professional, qualified car inspector.

There are many dealers in new and used cars, some of them large dealerships with service departments, and others a lot smaller. Car dealers with service departments usually claim that they inspect all of their cars, and offer different levels of warranties when one buys a car from them.

 It makes sense in the long run and pre purchase, to take along a vehicle inspector, just to simply have that peace of mind. Research can also help to save a person from a lot of these slimy tactics. Know exactly what one is looking for, the price that’s willing to be paid, and the payments to be made. It’s also helpful to know about any accessories that come along with the car.

Dirty trick 1. Preying on one’s lack of information.

There’s nothing a car dealer loves more than a clueless car shopper. One will never be able to negotiate a fair price for a vehicle if it’s not known what that price should be. Before taking off for the dealership, and if a person happens to be in Perth, Australia check out car pre purchase inspection by Spot On Vehicle Inspections for the best results. Getting the very best advice from the professionals before purchasing a new vehicle, it’s important to have it inspected. Don’t send it to the dealership’s mechanic! Make sure to have one’s own mechanic, one that can be trusted to evaluate the vehicle one is interested in.

Dirty trick 2. The Line.

Once interest is shown in a car – but undecided over actually buying it – the salesman may try to convince a person there is a line of people just desperate to get their hands on it. A favoured ruse here is for another salesman to interrupt one’s dealings with the news that they have a customer very keen on the car one happens to be interested in, and even asking him to pass over the keys for the “customer” to take it out for a test drive.

Dirty trick 3. Lies, Lies, and more Lies.

 The majority of car salesmen may lie about small things, such as the colour is not available, there’s only three left state-wide, the price is good only for today, so one had better decide quickly.

Dirty trick 4. Bait and Switch

The dealer advertises a car with a great price, but when a person shows up at the dealership, they say it’s already been sold. They then try to get people to buy a more expensive vehicle. The whole purpose of a bait-and-switch ad is to get a person into the showroom.

Dirty trick 5. The Sticker That Deceives.

Used cars will often have a sticker on windshield advertising the prices, but this can be extremely misleading. The sticker price is only the MSRP— (the manufacturer’s suggested retail price), it doesn’t reflect the actual price.

Good luck if one is going out there into the big world of car sales dealers, and may a person have the best of luck!

FE Awakening, Drama CD 4: 1. Just... Who Are You?

welcome to drama CD 4, which is honestly my favorite of the bunch. o/ it's pretty much 100% humor, after the seriousness and drama of CDs 2 and 3.  for the most part, the translations of the titles I took off Serene's Forest (same as the previous CDs); however, one thing to note is that the track titles on this CD are actual lines said in the CD itself, so I'll be changing a few of them to match with context.  thanks again to Amielleon for helping with a few of the sketchy parts~

also, shameless advertising: Hatoful Boyfriend comes out on Steam in about two weeks and everyone should buy it.

Fire Emblem Awakening Drama CD Volume 4
Track 1: Just... Who Are You?

[BGM: Id (Hope)]

Morgan(M): Haah! [parries and stabs] There are so many enemies… they’re pretty tenacious.
Morgan(F): There’s no helping it.  We already knew they wouldn’t just lie down and die for us. [gasp] Here they come!
[man comes running toward them, yelling]
Morgan(M): Hah! [parries] Prepare yourself!
[Morgan runs forward and stabs; the man screams and falls]
Morgan(F): [jumps lightly] Hup! [parries] Heeh!  You’re wide open!
[whoosh of magic; man screams and falls back]
Morgan(M): Huh... that was pretty well done, Morgan.
Morgan(F): You too, Morgan!  That last attack was perfect!
Morgan(M): Of course.  After all, I’m that person’s strongest unit.  I can at least do this much!
Morgan(F): What?  “The strongest”?  I can’t let that slide.  I’m at least as strong as you are.
Morgan(M): I know.  The two of us are one and the same.  If I’m the best, you are too.
Morgan(F): Hmm?  That’s fine, then.
Morgan(M): [chuckle] Then let’s finish this in one go!
Morgan(F): Yeah! [murmurs] Everything is for that person’s sake.  Time to tip the scales!
Morgan(M): This is the end!
[thunder crashes; several men scream]
[BGM fades out]

[shiny, sparkly sounds]
Anna: [blurred, echoing voice that slowly becomes clearer] Hey.  Heeey.  Hey, you two!  Listen to me!  Get up, get up!  Ugh… [takes a deep breath, then yells] WAKE UP!
Morgans: Waah!?

[BGM: “Open for business!”]

Anna: [sighs] Oh, good.  You’re still alive.  Wow, you scared me.
Morgan(F): [sleepily] Umm… just now… was that… a dream?  It was really vivid...
Anna: You were dreaming?  Honestly.  What a carefree girl.
Morgan(M): Huh?  Aren’t you… Anna?
Anna: Oh, so you know me.  But too bad, I’m someone else.  This is the Outrealms.  It’s a different place than the world you’re from.
Morgan(M): Outrealms?
Anna: Right.  If I had to guess, you probably got lost somehow… but I’m glad you two are okay.
Morgan(F): The two of us?
Anna: Yeah.  Look, your friend’s right next to you.
Morgans: Friend…?
[they turn to look at each other, then jump back]
Morgan(M): Ahh!  I don’t know her!  It’s our first time meeting!
Morgan(F): T-t-that’s right!  I’ve never seen him before!
Anna: Huh?  Really?  You’re wearing the same clothes and were lying right next to each other, so I thought you were twins…
Morgan(M): N-no!
Morgan(F): We really haven’t met before.
Anna: I see.  Ha. [leans forward] Then you should introduce yourselves, right?  What are your names?
Morgan(M): Ah, um…
Morgans: I’m Morgan.
[they turn to look at each other]
Morgan(M): Huh?
Anna: [amused] Oh, you have the same name.
Morgan(M): Just… who are you?
Morgan(F): [unnerved] What about you?  Who are you?
Anna: Hmm.  Well!  It happens a lot, meeting someone who looks just like you.  You know, there are countless people in all the Outrealms with the same name and face as me!  You just said you know someone who looks like me, right?
Morgan(M): Ah, t-that’s right.
Morgan(F): Then… this is normal?
Anna: It’s not unusual for me at least.
Morgan(M): Oh… really?  Then I won’t worry about it!
Morgan(F): I… won’t worry about it either.
Anna: Oh, you’re both pretty adaptable.  Now go ahead and shake hands.
Morgans: Ahh… [reach over and clasp hands]
Morgan(M): Ah… um… I hope we get along, Morgan.
Morgan(F): S-same here… Morgan.
[both laugh a little awkwardly]

[BGM: Duty]

Morgan(M): Fire Emblem Awakening: Drama CD series.
Morgan(F): Outrealm Bonds Edition: The Search for the Dreaming Tiara.

Young Lucina: Mother… thank you very much.  The same tiara as King Marth… it’s so beautiful!  I’ll cherish it always! [giggles]

[sound of the wind howling]
Lucina, slightly older: Mother… I never thought… I would lose you so soon… [sob] But… I’m all right.  With this sword and this tiara, the same as those of the Hero-King, I will become a beacon of hope, just as he did.  I’m fine as long as I have these.  I will keep them with me always!  Right, Father, Mother?

[a chime]
[birds chirping]

[BGM: “The Vaike never forgets! I just don’t always remember.”]

[Lucina grumbles and rolls over]
Severa: Morning, Lucina.  You don’t usually sleep in this late.
Lucina: Severa… good morning.
Severa: Hurry up and get ready.  We’re marching today.  Chrom’ll get mad at us if we’re late.  Didn’t we come here to defeat the enemy and bring back peace?
Lucina: Ah… yes.
Lucina, thinking: ...It seems I was dreaming, of the day long ago when Mother bought me that hair accessory… and the day I decided to take the name Marth.  What a nostalgic dream.
Severa: Come on! [heaves the covers away] Cynthia, Noire, you get up too!
Cynthia: Uuuuwah!?  Cold!  Severa, you jerk!
Noire: Hiiiiii!  I-I’m awake now, so please stop…
Lucina: [soft laugh, thinking] Everyone’s so lively this morning.  I must ready myself too.
Lucina: ...hm?  Huh?
Noire: What is it, Lucina?
Lucina: I can’t… find my hair ornament…
Severa: What, didn’t it just fall somewhere? [walks over]
Cynthia: Um… but it doesn’t look like it’s around here.
Noire: It’s not under the blankets either.
Lucina: I see.  That’s strange.
Severa(?): Maybe… someone stole it in the middle of the night?
Noire/Lucina/Cynthia: Eh?

[birds chirping]

[BGM: “But, Frederick, it’s nearly dark!”]
Laurent: One, two, three, four!  Five, six, seven, eight!  Ho, ho, three-- [continues counting in background]
Inigo: [breathes hard, sighs] Hey, Laurent.  Will these exercises really make us stronger?  I’m tired already!
Laurent: How foolish, Inigo. [continues exercising] These are the superbly fascinating anti-extinction exercises taught to me by Yarne!  It seems that practicing these in the morning dramatically increases your probability of survival for the day!
Brady: Probability of survival?  Wasn’t that just him babbling?
Owain: Ugh.  All this repetition is making my arms scream in agony!
Laurent: Owain!  Needless chatter will only exhaust you!
Gerome: Hmph.  Honestly.  You’re all trying hard.
Inigo: [imitating his voice] “Trying hard”, is it!?  Why aren’t you exercising, Gerome!?
Brady: That’s right!  Don’t just stand there looking down on us!
Gerome: I’ve been training since early in the morning.  I have no need for exercises to wake me up, unlike you idlers.
Inigo: Oh, yeah, yeah, is that right?
[faraway footsteps]
Laurent: ...hm?  What’s that sound?
Owain: H-hey!  They’re coming closer!
Severa: Ah!  There they are!  We were looking for you!
Gerome: What?  Is it the enemy?
Cynthia: No!  Something really terrible has happened!
Gerome: Terrible?
Laurent: We will not understand unless you tell us.  Please explain.
[slower footsteps approach]
Lucina: I apologize, everyone.  I’m sorry for causing such a commotion this early.
Owain: Ah, Lucina.
Inigo: Huh?  You look a bit different from usual.
Laurent: That is correct.  Something that’s always present is missing… ah.
Gerome: You mean this “something terrible” is…
Lucina: That’s right.  In truth, my hair accessory… has disappeared.
Brady/Inigo: Huh!?

Tampa Boat Accident Attorney

According to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission, more than 630 boating accidents occurred in Florida in 2014, of which 73 involved fatalities. In 2014, Florida boasted 867,463 registered recreational vessels — more than any other state. People heading out to Florida’s crowded waterways often act with negligence, drinking and driving the boat or ignoring waterway safety rules with tragic results.

If you are involved in a speed boat, sail boat or Jet Ski accident, your injuries can be just as severe as in a car accident. Watercraft offer little protection to drivers or passengers, often resulting in brain injuries or spinal cord damage.

At the Baird Law Group in Tampa, Florida, we represent clients who have been injured in a boat accident resulting from negligence. We understand that being involved in a boating accident has disrupted your personal life. Now you have medical bills you didn’t plan on, you may miss work, and struggle with an injury you didn’t have before the boat accident. Worst of all, you may have lost a loved one because of an intoxicated boater.

Waterway Accidents Caused by Driver Negligence

Many waterway accidents are caused by driver negligence, such as a motorized boat failing to yield the right of way to a sailboat or sea kayak, or failing to use the channel markers. As personal injury attorneys, we see every day how lives are altered by boater carelessness. We urge every Florida boater to stay safe out there. Please take a boating safety course and designate an on-board driver.

Our lawyers represent boaters, personal watercraft riders, water skiers and swimmers injured, and the families of those killed, in negligent boating accidents involving:

  • Collisions with other vessels or fixed objects
  • Falls overboard, capsizing or drowning
  • Water skiing accidents
  • Hitting people in the water
  • Speeding, alcohol use, boat fires and more
  • Unsafe boating practices, such as overloading or improper fueling

We have extensive experience in personal injury law. We can help you pursue compensation for your boat accident injuries no matter where the accident occurred — on intercoastal waterways or on the high seas. We investigate the boat accident thoroughly, getting copies of the accident report and talking to witnesses to determine fault.

Microviews Vol. 49: This Is Your Brain On Ice

on Wednesday, January 29, 2014
Never fear Bookworms. I haven't disappeared. No great disaster befell me - death by a million paper cuts, spontaneous eye explosion, blog burnout. I just took a month to sit back, relax and read. Lots. Twenty one books in January and counting. As you know, I'm off the crazy "Review Every Book I Read" wagon, so it's back to the good old random Microviews of yore. Enjoy!

Andrew's Brain by E.L. Doctorow
Much has already been made of Andrew's Brain being Doctorow's "old man" book. Like Roth's Everyman and Exit Ghost or Delillo's... well... everything after Underworld, it ponders the great existential threat: mortality. The comparisons are, however, unfair. Sure, there's a degree of late life crisis about this book, but it has very little of the rueful belly button gazing that made the others a bit of a chore to read. That said, Andrew's Brain is a pretty strange affair. It opens with some sort of confessional or therapeutic conversation between Andrew (who speaks of himself in the third person) and a mysterious interlocutor. Is it a friend? A therapist? A cop? We learn straight up that his first marriage has failed, that his subsequent marriage - to a student, no less - has also ended (albeit in a less clear cut manner) and that he dumped the child of that second marriage on his first wife before running away. The full story is drawn out by the other speaker and it is one mostly marked by frustration, tragedy and heartbreak. Fate, for Andrew, is a bitch. Andrew's Brain reaches its emotional crescendo three quarters of the way through when we learn what happened to the second wife. Those few pages reminded me of Doctorow's power to profoundly move a reader. Then something weird happens. Something very, very weird. The novel takes such an unexpected left turn that it comes close to careening out of control. Enter Andrew's old college roommate, now the president of the United States, and his cabal of Yes Men. Doctorow doesn't even try to hide their identities: Chaingang and Rumbum. It borders on puerile. Andrew moves into the inner circle but seems to be more of a cog in some elaborate prank. Doctorow takes political aim and fires but, by that stage, I was so far removed from the novel that I couldn't even tell if he hit. Indeed, I was reminded greatly of Delillo's Falling Man - I was watching a brilliant writer grappling with the way the world has changed but not quite able to get the upper hand. I suppose it was all necessary to get to the final chapter which, I have to say, was perfectly pitched. It will answer a lot of your questions but one will undoubtedly remain: What on Earth was Doctorow doing for those forty-odd pages?

On Such A Full Sea by Chang-Rae Lee
Having been raised on a steady diet of JG Ballard dystopias I came to Chang-Rae Lee's latest with a great deal of excitement. Straight up, he is not the sort of novelist I'd ever have expected to attempt this kind of story. His lyricism and sensitivity gave me hope that he'd bring something new, something more, to it all. Could this be The Handmaid's Tale for a new generation? It started well enough - Fan escapes from B-Mor (a future Baltimore) in search of her boyfriend Reg, but not before destroying the tanks of fish that provide vital nutrition to the city. It is a brilliantly realised first chapter, one that firmly establishes the parameters of this strange post Apocalyptic America. The descriptions of Fan swimming through the schools of fish are beautiful - vintage Lee. I don't quite know, then, why the book lost me pretty much straight afterwards. Fan's trek through the "open counties", her search for a brother who has been elevated to the high Charter caste, the various grifters and desperadoes she meets... it all just left me cold. It was as if I was reading the treatment for a novel rather than the novel itself. I can see how Lee has given us a glimpse at the Ghost of America Future with its environmental carnage, socio-economic disparity (especially in terms of universal health care - hello Republican bozos) and governmental collapse. In that sense, this is a harrowing read. But as a novel, a narrative to draw me in and make me truly appreciate the dire state of the world he has created, it just didn't float my fish.

A Meal In Winter by Hubert Mingarelli
In one of my all time favourite novels, Schopenhauer's Telescope, two men are locked in tense conversation as one digs his own grave at gunpoint. That is pretty much the entire book. There's an air of Nazi and partisan about them, though it is never clear what war they're fighting or which one is which. One will die, the other will walk away. It is incredibly difficult to know who you should actually feel for - did the good guy win? The author remains silent. Hubert Mingarelli's masterpiece in miniature, A Meal In Winter, has a very similar feel. Three Nazis stationed at some remote outpost are sent to hunt down Jews hiding in the forest. For them it is a reprieve - their willingness to brave the winter chill means that they will be excused from partaking in the daily executions. It doesn't take long for them to find a Jew but before they can bring him back the weather sets in and they are forced to take refuge in an abandoned hut. Cold and hungry, they search the building for a few food scraps and set about making soup, all the while discussing what should become of the Jew. The sudden appearance of a Polish farmer complicates matters - his presence is disruptive but he has alcohol which will warm them and add flavour to the broth. He is allowed to stay. After an interminable wait, the soup comes to the boil and the five men sit down to eat together; enemies breaking bread. Not a single word is exchanged but the dynamic has completely changed. The Jew is now human. Do they release him so that they will have one redemptive memory when the war is over? Or do they take him back to certain death at the outpost? Failure to return a Jew means being put back on firing squad duty. Returning him robs them of redemption but excuses them from ever pulling another trigger. For the three soldiers it is an agonising choice. A Meal In Winter is one of the most harrowing, morally complex works I have ever encountered. Read it. It will strengthen your soul.

Property by Rutu Modan
A few years back, a friend of mine was studying at the Yiddish Institute in New York where she befriended a non-Jewish girl from Poland in her dorm. For as long as they stuck by the great Fawlty Towers mantra "Don't mention the war!", all went well. Then, in what I can only assume was an attempt to curry further favour, the Polish girl happened to mention that Poland is one of Israel's most strident supporters. My friend was puzzled. The conversation went something like this:
"Because if anything happened to Israel the Jews might come and take our homes."
"Well, they're not exactly your homes."
"Of course they are. The Jews abandoned them during the war."
"And where do you think they went? On holiday?"
Thus ended the friendship. Rutu Modan's wonderful graphic novel, The Property, is an exploration of the strange relationship between Jews and Poland, especially the paranoias that itch beneath the surface. Mica accompanies her grandmother Regina from Israel to Poland in what at first seems like a search for the apartment in which her family lived before the war. From the opening panels, Modan is in top form, skewering the hilarity of Israeli airports, affectionately stabbing at the... um... Israeli national attitude. It's funny but tender; Modan clearly comes from a place of love. Things take an unexpected turn when they reach their destination - Regina finds the apartment but there is much more to the trip than she has let on. Meanwhile Mica chums up with a non-Jewish Polish guy (in an Operation Ivy jacket no less) who starts as tour guide but soon becomes much more. And of course, there's the oddball, annoying Israeli following them all - it's not hard to tell that he has ulterior motives, though it takes a while to realise what precisely they are. The Property is a joy to read, beautifully rendered in shifting graphic styles, utterly compelling and, when the penny drops, absolutely heartwarming (if kind of tragic).

Leaving the Sea: Stories by Ben Marcus
Ben Marcus has a strange way of popping up randomly in my life. When my band was touring America, a young lady I befriended was raving about this debut short story collection by her lecturer at university (or professor at college, I've never understood the American academic nomenclature). It was called The Age of Wire and String and, she assured me, was at the absolute cutting edge of contemporary literature. Plus she thought her professor was cute. Fast forward a few years and I rate that same author's novel, The Flame Alphabet, as the tenth best book of the 2012 with a tongue in cheek rant against him for not fully realising what I thought was the book's incredible potential. A couple of days later, while I was enjoying a lovely holiday on the Aussie coast, a familiar name popped up in my Inbox. Ben Marcus. To put it mildly, he wasn't happy. Clearly the Australian idiom had gotten lost in translation. I agonised over it for a few hours before editing the review to lessen the perceived sting. I'm still not sure if, in an ideological sense, I did the right thing but I hadn't intended to insult him and felt that ought to be made clear. Bottom line is I think he's a bloody excellent writer. Even if he can't take a joke. Anyway, this is all a round about way of saying that, before I go any further, I will declare that I liked Leaving The Sea. I liked it a lot. It is an uncomfortable collection of stories, to be sure, but I mean that in a good way. Presented in six suites, each stranger than the one that came before, it cements Marcus's place as the modern master of the experimentally surreal. Leaving The Sea starts off with what I can only describe as a narrative honey trap - the writing is gorgeous, the stories quite straight forward. "I Can Say Many Nice Things" stands out, as a washed up writer stoops to taking a creative writing course on a cruise ship. Hell, Marcus seems to be saying, is other wannabe writers. It's funny and sad and, I'm guessing, cathartic. The first suite closes with the rather depressing "Rollywood" (which reminded me of the Ben Folds song Fred Jones Pt. 2), a perfect buffer for the profound shift in comfort that follows with the dual punch of brief interviews that make up the second suite. The shifts turn to tremors and then full on quakes as Marcus throws conventional storytelling to the wind in favour of dazzling experiments in style, substance and atmosphere. That's not to say there aren't many moments that will appeal to the narrative traditionalists amongst you. "Watching Mysteries With My Mother", where a man obsesses over his mother's imminent death, is deeply moving. The desperation of the dying narrator trying out last-chance, probably shonky, treatments in "The Dark Arts" is palpable. Even some of the experimental stuff is quite accessible - the prose is always beautiful, the readily familiar often identifiable within the fabulous. Like any short story collection there are lulls - after all, not every experiment can work - but as another step on Marcus's consistently interesting path, Leaving The Sea is well worth your attention.

Bangor firefighters rescue small dog after its culvert adventure goes awry

The Bangor Fire Department rescue a dachshund owned by local resident Anne Fenner on Saturday after the dog vanished down a culvert and got stuck. Bangor Fire Dept. photo.

Fiona, a miniature dachshund, got a little more than she may have bargained for Saturday afternoon when her expedition into a drainage culvert ended with a rescue operation by the Bangor Fire Department.

The adventure began when Fiona’s owner Anne Fenner was walking her dogs in the field behind Bangor High School and Fiona got off leash and made a break for it.

“She crossed a path and went into the woods,” Fenner said late Saturday afternoon. “We called and called but she had disappeared and she always comes back.”

Knowing there was a culvert not far from where Fiona was heading and knowing the dog’s love for exploring anything resembling a tunnel, Fenner said she had her suspicions where the dog had ended up.

“Dachshunds love culverts,” Fenner said. “But Fiona knows how to back out of them.”

The culvert passed under a street and Fenner said she followed its route to a sewer grate between Orchard Hills Parkway and Baldwin Drive and when she looked down, there was Fiona looking back up and crying.

“Sure enough, there was a big pipe that opened into a bunch of water below it,” Fenner said. “There was another pipe lower and to the left [and] Fiona could only jump into that pipe and not back into the other one to get back out.”

Unsure what else to do, Fenner dialed 911 and within minutes, the crew from Bangor Fire Department Engine 6 was on the scene.

“It was pretty simple,” said Engine 6 Lt. Joe Wellman. “The dog had ended up in the catch basin between two culverts [and] you could see her down there but [Ms. Fenner] had no way to get down there and get her out.”

Wellman and crew members Joel Burda and John Goulet were able to get the grate open and extend a ladder down the 4-feet or so to Fiona.

Burda then climbed down and retrieved the bedraggled, but otherwise uninjured dachshund while Fenner and Fiona’s far less adventurous brother Frankie looked on.

“She was nervous but looked happy to be out,” Wellman said. “She was barking a bit, but her ‘mom’ was right there and [Fiona] was happy to see us.”

Wellman said he and his fellow firefighters have rescued dogs from burning buildings before, but this was the first rescue operation from a culvert for them.

“The firemen were so nice and not annoyed acting at all,” Fenner said. “They were very good with her.”

As for culvert-loving Fiona?

“I doubt she’s learned her lesson,” Fenner said

The 4th Quarter of 2011 has been huge for Halton in terms of construction activity. The value of construction was up 62% from $202 Million to $369 Million the bulk of the increase was in Oakville and Burlington . Noted John Davidson, Director, Economic Development. “The increase was partly attributable to an increase in commercial investments, which included Siemens Canada’s new head office building in Oakville and a new parking garage at the Oakville GO Station.”

The report also noted:
• Vaughan-based Calloway Real Estate Investment Trust, in partnership with Indianapolis-based retail developer Simon Properties Group, Inc., plans to build a 400,000 sq. ft. Premium Outlet Centre at Highway 401 and Trafalgar Rd. in the Town of Halton Hills, expected to attract over 2.5 million visitors a year.

• The Government of Ontario announced that it will be investing $3.3 million in Oakville-based aircraft landing gear manufacturer Goodrich Corporation over the next five years, which should help add 31 new jobs and retain another 37 in Oakville, and support a more than $90 million R&D investment Goodrich is making over the next five years.

• Construction of several multi-unit dwellings by Valery Homes in Milton contributed to the 86 per cent increase in residential construction values during the quarter, over the same period last year, as did a construction of a new, four-storey condominium on Upper Middle Road in Burlington.

The unemployment rate in Halton sat at 4.8%.
