When I, together with 20 friends, performed in a choreographed fire show at the Medieval Week in Visby 2005. That show had everything, fire breathers, flying torches and people standing on shoulders.


My latest project is a 1936 Ford Phaeton, and in the Nov. '18 issue of STREET RODDER the car received a 1939 Buick front bumper. The bumper itself required no modifications, just a new mounting system. The V-shaped front bumper fit the profile of the 1936 Ford perfectly and tucked in nice and tight. I feel certain this bumper would also work on many other brands of mid to late '30s cars (particularly 1939 Buicks).
Pleased with the look of the front bumper, we located a rear 1939 Buick bumper to adapt to the rear of our 1936 Ford. This process proved to be a bit more involved. First, we removed the spare tire and carrier from the rear of the car because in our humble opinion, the spare tire gets in the way of that gorgeous sweeping flatback panel. The spare also makes the car look very long. With the spare tire removed we set about adapting the 1939 Buick bumper.
The first order of business was taking some basic measurements. As it turns out the original bumper on the car was out of alignment by over 1-1/2 inches. This could have been caused by many things. First, 1936 automobiles were not exactly precision built, tolerances were "generous." Second, undoubtedly over the past 82 years this old car may have been push-started or used a chain to pull another car home. Either way we set about heating and bending the bumper irons until they were both identical. This ensured we would be mounting the new bumper to equally spaced brackets. There would be more modifications to the brackets during the process, and we were able to tuck the Buick bumper nice and tight to the body, resulting in a much shorter-appearing car. In the end the bumpers were just beyond the face of the taillight lens.
While we could have mounted the Buick bumper as a one-piece bumper, we decided to build a license plate recess into the bumper. Borrowing a concept from the late '30s and early '40s Lincoln Zephyr we decided to use two bars in the middle of the bumper as a license plate recess. If you prefer to leave the license plate light mounted to the driver-side taillight this modification is a good way to change the length of a bumper and use the tubing as a simply styling que.
Like most things on old cars, this got a bit more involved than anticipated but in the end we were very pleased with bumper. It is now about 1-inch shorter than the original 1939 Buick bumper, and much like the front bumper this rear piece conforms nicely to the shape of the car.
Of course the same principles involved here apply to virtually any car and most early bumpers; it certainly does not have to be a 1939 Buick bumper on a 1936 Ford. So follow along as we slice and dice an old bumper to give our Ford a more modern appearance, and a little extra style. It may inspire you to take a similar approach on your next project.
The original 1936 Ford Phaeton is pretty busy looking from the rear. The spare tire and dropped-center rear bumper and bumper guards are hiding a beautiful sweeping, "flatback" panel. (Above) Removing the spare tire and adding a modified 1939 Buick rear bumper gives our 1936 tub a whole new look.
Removing the spare tire and moving the license plate from the driver-side taillight to the bumpers makes a dramatic difference, but we have bigger plans.
With the 1939 Buick bumper clamped to the inboard portion of the Ford bumper irons the bumper is too far from the fenders, so it's time for some bumper tucking.
Before we can begin any modifications we must be sure both bumper irons are the same shape. Our preliminary measurements indicated they were quite different. First we leveled the two bumper irons with a long level.
After we had the driver side properly shaped, we removed both bumper brackets and bent them with heat from the torch and lots of C-clamps. Heat the area, clamp it, heat and clamp until both brackets match. Allow to cool slowly.
And here we have it, two perfectly matched bumper irons. Now we can install them on the car and proceed with the new bumper mounting process.
With the brackets mounted and leveled we measured from the center hole of the spare tire carrier to the end of the brackets to ensure the brackets were equidistant from the center of the car.
Certain that the brackets were properly located, we placed the Buick bumper atop the brackets and carefully centered it. While the bumper would work OK at stock length we decided to shorten it about 1-1/2 inches.
After finding the exact center of the bumper we measured out to our desired opening and marked it with a square. Then our mighty powerband hacksaw made quick work of cutting through the bumper.
We were able to use the outboard hole in the bumper to temporarily attach the bumper piece in place. The inboard portion of the bumper iron is too long and must be shortened.
Using the bumper as a guide we marked the bumper iron for the proper preliminary cut. This first cut should be inboard a bit as we will be adding the mounting portion back onto the bumper iron later.
With both bumper irons cut the bumper halves are held in place by the outboard bolts and inboard clamps. With the bumpers leveled and centered we spent some time "eyeballing" the bumpers to be sure we had the desired look.
Part of that locating process was using masking tape across both wheelwells and measuring to the fenders. Once again, 82-year-old cars are less than precise and we discovered the driver-side fender was quite different from the passenger side. We removed the fender brace and pulled the fender out to the proper location and then straightened the fender bracket. Now everything looked balanced.
A magnet holds our filler plate in place for test-fit. Satisfied with the shape of this piece, we set about making an exact duplicate.
These are the basic pieces we used to form the centersection of the bumper. The steel tubing is actually just good old black pipe from the hardware store. No, it's not seamless tubing but hey, we're building a bumper here, not an AA/FD chassis. We fabricated the plates while the gussets are from Summit Racing.
We decided to make our tubing centerpieces bolt-in pieces. We used 3/8-16 nuts tapped into the end of the tubing. We had to open the hole in the tubing just a bit using a step drill. Be sure the nut is square in the hole.
A quick but careful pass with our Miller TIG welder ensures the nut is now one with the tube.
We carefully ground a flat face on the tubing so it will seat perfectly with our new filler plates.
Here is the end product, ready to be bolted in place. We ran a tap through the threads to clean the threads after the welding and grinding process.
Of course before we could bolt the piece in place we had to drill holes in the filler plates. First we did the top hole, then slipped the filler pieces back in place to mark the lower holes to be certain we had a perfect, parallel fit.
After locating the tubing perfectly, the rear of the bracket was trimmed to present a straight line between the tubes. A simple straightedge and Sharpie made the mark.
With both bars fabricated and both filler plates drilled we bolted the pieces together and gave it one last test-fit prior to welding the filler plates into the bumpers.
Putting a gusset behind the filler plate is no doubt overkill, but then again, anything worth doing is worth overdoing. We keep a couple packs of these gussets on the shelf; they are from Summit Racing. Welding the gusset in place first made positioning the filler plate easier.
After carefully positioning the filler plate in the bumper end we TIG-welded the gusset and filler plate with our trusty Miller Synchrowave 200. We preheated the bumper with a torch prior to welding and allowed it to cool slowly.
After the inside was welded we laid down a bead on the outside of the filler plate. We added a bit of extra filler rod to the weld to give us ample material to form a tight radius over the end of the bumper. Once again, slow cooling is best.
After a little work with our small air grinder and Roloc discs we had a nicely finished piece. The team at Advanced Plating will make it even better. Also note the original boltholes in the bumper have been filled.
The outboard mounting pad was formed from 1/8-inch flat stock with a 7/16-14 nut welded behind the plate. This type of mount distributes the stress on the bumper and makes for a cleaner mount than simply welding a stud in place.
The inboard bumper mounts are a slight variation from the outboard mounts. Once again 7/16-14 nuts are welded inside the mount while the flat face of the mount provides a mating surface for the bumper iron.
Before we could locate the exact location for the inboard bumper mounts we had to make the final cuts on the inboard bumper irons. We clamped the two pieces together and made the required cut marks.
With both pieces cut, we V'd the gap slightly before welding them together. Since the stock bumper irons are spring steel we tack welded the pieces, then preheat the pieces with a torch prior to welding. After welding we slow-cooled the pieces in a bucket of sand.
After the piece cooled we have a nicely shortened bumper iron that will tuck the 1939 Buick bumper nice and tight to our 1936 Phaeton body.
And this is what the back side of the bumper looks like after all the new brackets are welded in place. All original holes have been filled so we will have smooth bumpers for a custom look. Should any minor tweaking be required the brackets could be shimmed to perfection.
The bumper irons were reinstalled and we assembled all four parts of our bumper on the car. We were quite pleased with the fit on all pieces.
If you wanted to leave the license plate mounted on the driver side taillight you could run the bumper like this. The early Lincoln influence is very evident (a nice way of saying we copied the Lincoln look).
However, we planned on running the license place in the center of the bumper using the tubing insert as a recess for said license plate. This is the 1936 Ford front bumper iron bracket we had removed from the car. We will drill out the two rivets that hold the mounting bracket to the license plate bracket.
We had to flatten the lip on the bracket where it passes over the lower tube but then it fit fine. We drilled and tapped two 1/4-20 holes in the lower tube to attach the bracket to the tube.
In 1936 there was no official standard size and bolt pattern for license plates—that wouldn't happen until 1957. The long slots in the 1936 license plate bracket will accommodate both vintage plates and a modern plate, as seen here.
We plan on running a 1936 license plate on the car, so we cut this blank out to simulate the size of a 1936 Georgia license plate, which is 12-3/8×5-3/8. It fits the new opening well. Now it's time to ship it all off to Advanced Plating.

Sony Pictures has not confirmed the rumor, but Latino Review is reporting that Patrick Fugit (pictured) of Almost Famous has top crack at replacing Tobey Maguire as the new Spider-Man.
Most of the key players involved in the first three Spider-Man films have moved on. Writer-director Sam Raimi is in New Zealand working on Wizard's First Rule. Maguire has three movies in the can (none superheroic). And Kirsten "Mary Jane" Dunst went public Tuesday on E Online about the bouts with depression that sent her to a retreat a few months ago.
However, producer Laura Ziskin remains at the helm of the Sony Pictures franchise, and she's brought on James Vanderbilt (Zodiac) to write more adventures.
Fugit, 25, has quietly done some fine work in the indie movie realm since his 1996 breakthrough in Almost Famous. So what if he's not a marquee name? Neither were Maguire and Christian Bale before they put on the tights to fight the good fight.
COme on. Did anyone think Sony would slaughter that big a cash cow?
Sony may bite on Spidey spinoff
Studio developing 'Venom,' seeking new writers
With Heath Ledger's villainous Joker drawing attention and boxoffice dollars, Sony is moving forward with "Venom," a potential "Spider-Man" spinoff based on a bad guy.
The studio is developing the project, based on the gooey nemesis who appeared in "Spider-Man 3" and is hoping the character could serve as an antidote to the aging "Spider-Man" franchise in the way that Fox has used Wolverine to add longevity to its "X-Men" franchise.
But getting any spinoff off the ground, let alone one centered on a villain, can be tricky.
The studio had commissioned a draft of the script from Jacob Estes, a writer of the specialty film "Mean Creek," released several years ago by Paramount Classics. He's also attached to the Plan B drama "The Gifted."
But the studio is considering going in a different direction from Estes' script and is seeking writers for a new draft.
Casting also is no simple matter. Topher Grace played the character in the film, but agents have been eyeing the role for their clients, as Sony is not yet convinced the actor can carry a tentpole picture.
Neither Sony nor Marvel would comment for this story.
In "Spider-Man 3," Venom is essentially a parasite that attaches itself to a host via a sticky substance that then gives the host special powers. The fact that it is a substance rather than a character could give Sony leeway to cast a new actor.
"Venom" came about as part of the licensing deal between Marvel and Sony for the Spider-Man movies, which contained provisions allowing for the use of spinoffs based on other Spider-Man characters.
The project is part of a larger feeding frenzy for superhero projects, scores of which have been signed up in the last few months while movies such as "Iron Man" and "The Dark Knight" light up the boxoffice.
Sony is developing a fourth "Spider-Man" film for 2011, but that picture would come out nine years after the original movie debuted, adding to the studio's desire to see new Marvel characters.

okay, I might be fuzzy on my Spider-man history, but Venom has never, ever, ever been a good guy. Right?
In the early 90s he had his own serires as an "anti-hero."
Charlie Sheen was attached to a Venom project in the mid-90s. No shit.

I also like how the article Nach quoted back in May implies that Christian Bale was a nobody until he played Batman... they completely ignore the fact that the guy's been making incredible movies for the last 20 years.

Turkish Grand Prix: Lewis Hamilton seals historic seventh F1 Drivers' Championship
By Anthony Khoury
Published: 15 Nov 2020, 11:55
Lewis Hamilton has won his fourth consecutive and seventh overall Drivers' Championship, equalling Michael Schumacher's record for most F1 titles in the process.
"It was far beyond my wildest dreams thinking that we'd get to seven," said Hamilton, when reflecting on the possibility of matching the German's record.
He won his first world title with McLaren in 2008, but did not win another until 2014, his second season with Mercedes.
The rest, however, is history.
Since signing with Mercedes, the British icon has dominated the sport, now winning six of the last seven F1 titles. After an already record-breaking season, where he broke Schumacher's record of 92 race wins, he's done it again by equalling the Ferrari legend's title record.
Hamilton came into the Turkish Grand Prix 85 points above his Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas. The only chance Bottas had of keeping his slim title challenge alive was to score eight more points than Hamilton, but that looked very unlikely after just the first lap after the Finn spun off during the opening stages of the race, dropping all the way down to 16th in the process.
The now seven-time champion has clinched the title with three races to spare, and even if he didn't seal his triumph in Istanbul, it was inevitable that he would have secured the crown sooner rather than later.
Despite the win, Hamilton is still more proud of his campaign for equality than his latest crown.
When speaking to the press in Istanbul, he said: "Winning a world championship is very much a personal thing... and that doesn't necessarily impact people's lives.
"Something I'm much prouder of is trying to improve conditions for people around the world... that's the most important thing for me.
"What's important with the journey this year is it's been combined with the fight for equality and a real growing process of learning what's happening around the world and being a little bit more aware of surroundings and starting to see progress with that."
Hamilton continues to be a voice for change, as well as an inspiration to many with regards to his humanitarian efforts and sporting achievements.
When Schumacher clinched his seventh title in 2004, many questioned whether anyone would come close to re-writing history. There have been many standout drivers since, including Sebastian Vettel's four consecutive titles between 2010 and 2013, but it was Hamilton who would break boundaries as a person of colour to equal a record many thought would stand for a long period of time.
Despite rumours still circulating on whether Hamilton will re-sign with Mercedes, we know one thing's for sure: No matter who he's driving for, he'll be gunning for that record-breaking eighth title in 2021.

this dragon is detto to be one of the 4 helpers of Negi Akh. he was to look for a main land from the air.
one of the pokemon Negi was detto to have sent in cerca of a main land. he was to cerca da the seas.
this dragon was sent da Negi to cerca the land.
Name means Fire, it's wings r pure flames and so often shifting. it's one of the only farfalle (if not THE only 1) who doesn't have the same design on each wing.
Generally peaceful, they're no bigger then the palm of a grown man's hand. they only live in the darkest part of caves and ruins where they float about and glow in swarms. only when they r made angry will they attack with their cape open to mostra that, what looks like a single piece closed, is actually 3 pieces. the light comes from a glowing sphere hidden in their capes. no one knows what their body looks like because as soon as they die they become glowing green sparkles which is detto 2 bring good luck.
males have più green on them then females (pictured here, a female) have extremely powerful jaws, they can brake a stone to nothing but sand in one bite. they only live in lakes and ponds in caves. the light on their heads is also a super-sensitive antenna. while high level ones can learn to use their fins as wings, the rest can glide on them when they gain enough speed and shoot out of the water. the spots on it's fins are detto to be used to scare other pokemon and people.
about the size of a large man, these huge crocs resemble closely were-crocs. While mostly only males evolve, at rare times a female will. This is only detto 2 happen when the female is as strong as o stronger then all the males in the pool. Once evolved, the light disappears from its head. It still is a high sensitive antennae but this pokemon no longer needs a light because it's eyes become heat-sensitive once it evolves.
the rarest eevee evolution because it can only happen at a certain mese depending on the eevee. it must also b poisoned and at the stone that evolves them into leafeon. the same size and least known of all eevee evolves, most don't even know it exists. the only known trainer with one is Suzzana.
the steel evolution of Eevee and one of the least known, it was discovered the same anno as Vinceen.
Dragon Evolution of Eevee, very little is known about it. It's detto that, on the rare times Eevee evolve into this pokemon, they go insane because of the sudden increase in power and how much is dato 2 them. However, if it's owned da a person (which is even più unlikely as very few humans know they exist) they might have a chance because they'd have someone 2 help them.
not many can figure out how this pokemon grows. Though it is an Eevee evolution, it's about 3 times as big as the others (with the exception of Ghouleon) the guanto on it's tail is the size of most of their heads.
the crystals on it's back and tail shed every anno and grow bigger once they grow back. This is actually how it was discovered. Someone found the crystals and took them 2 a lab. The scientists were stumped and the crystals were ignored for the longest time. Eventually an Eevee found them and wouldn't give them up. The trainer thought nothing of it and the professor detto he could keep them. The trainer only trained in the day, hoping 4 an Espeon. But, when Eevee did evolve, it was into a Crysteon. The only way 2 get a Crysteon is 2 train an Eevee like u want an Espeon only holding a shed gem from a Crysteon.
not much is known about the bug type Eevee. it's the smallest of them all, only growing about 3 inches bigger then the Eevee it starts as. It's detto the only 2 Eevee evolutions it gets along with r Leafeon and Vinceen.
the light in the center of it's forehead is used 4 seeing while tunneling, even though it's detto 2 have the best night vision of all Eevee evolutions other then Umbreon. It helps people out of caves, but doesn't let itself be seen. Instead, what it does is lure people into one of the caves it's dug and disappears, making sure that they stay on the right path.
an open Bleeding cuore Flower, this pokemon doesn't like 2 fight unless it has 2. it likes better 2 sing and dance.
this small-ish ghost cat is made of fuoco and protoplasm. the flames it's made of r not hot IF the pokemon likes u. however, this pokemon tends 2 Amore everyone.
only females, this cat is about the size of a 16 anno old human. They tend 2 b a bit più people friendly then their pre-evolution, but not much.
only males, they're very protective and very large. They're bigger then Arcanine da about a foot and they're più solid then Panthyoew, but only if they want 2 be.
this lontra is the size of the average human 5 anno old, but tends 2 shy away from young trainers. (even though trainers with at least 2 badges o ribbons can find them with no problem) no one knows how they can tell about the trainers so well.
gaining strength upon evolution, this large pokemon is the size of a 16 anno old human and tends 2 get along best with teenage trainers. They also tend 2 like a human sports (here, golf) and be better then most humans at it. They also usually like 2 mostra off.

Anyway, so let me tell you about this melt-in-your-mouth blueberry ice cream. Blueberry is a flavor that gets a lot of love in muffins, breads, and even pies, but rarely do you see it headlining in ice cream. This needs to be remedied ASAP. The combination of blueberries and cream just rings with freshness and makes me think of what you would be served at some quaint Alpine pension. With blueberries in season, it's time to take advantage of rock-bottom sale prices and stock up so you can try blueberry-flavored everything. When we got a giant clamshell of them at Costco recently, they were quickly put to work in fruit salads, jam, and a blueberry-lime pound cake…but I think this creamy treat may have been my favorite. Give it a try and see if you agree!
1. Puree berries in a standard blender or with an immersion blender.
2. Heat pureed blueberries and sugar in a saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Refrigerate until cold–totally, thoroughly cold. Your end result will be much creamier this way.
3. Mix in vanilla, salt, half and half, and whipping cream.
4. Pour into ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer directions.

If you are using Windows then you might have seen Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation in your Task Manager. You also may question "Why sometimes it takes too much System Resources such as CPU and RAM"? In this article, we will clear all your doubts about it.
1 So, What exactly is "Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation" Process?
2 Why Sometimes it's consuming so much CPU and RAM?
4 Can I disable Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation process?
5 Could it be A Virus?
6 Conclusion – What is Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation?
So, What exactly is "Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation" Process?
The long name of the process might not make much sense to you but still its an official part of Windows. It is a primary audio engine service in Windows Vista, 7,8 and 10. It handles all Digital Signal Processing tasks such as Advanced Audio Enhancement effects provided by Windows. But it should not be mixed with Windows Audio Service as both are completely different. This isolation was done so as to allow developers to introduce their own audio enhancement service so that it doesn't replace Windows Audio service itself. This isolation leads to better stability and was a very good update provided by Windows.
Earlier problem was that if Windows Audio service crashes down then it will take down the whole system instead of just the sound. Now, by isolating Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation and Windows Audio Service, if a crash occurs then Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation Process will likely be killed instead of Windows Audio Service. Thus keeping the System intact and stable.
This isolation also has another advantage, that is Windows can now turn off Audio Enhancements without having to care about the Audio Hardware being used. But generally, this feature is not by default provided by Audio Hardware Manufacturers.
One more scenario can be when some Audio Hardware manufacturer may replace the "Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation" with their own Signal Processing Service that provides Audio Enhancements. If that is the case then you don't have to worry about problems that are caused by "Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation". You don't need to troubleshoot anything.
Why Sometimes it's consuming so much CPU and RAM?
As Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation is not optimized for every Audio Hardware device, that's why sometimes it can cause problems such as Occasional Crash and also the high usage of System Resources such as CPU, RAM, and even Hard Disk. Ideally, it consumes zero percent of your CPU, very little RAM and no disk usage. But it can start consuming resources if Audio Enhancements are applied, still, the spike is temporary and will go down after some time. If "Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation" is consuming any of your System Resources for a long time, then you got a problem to solve.
Right-click the audio button on your System Tray and then select "Sounds". Also, you can open it by going to Control Panel and then run Sounds Option in that.
This opens up Sound Window, then select "PlayBack" tab.
Now on the window that opens, select the "Enhancements" tab. You will see a list of Enhancements that are supported by your Audio Device.
Now you just have to check "Disable all Enhancements" option.
This will stop all audio enhancements on your device and definitely Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation will not cause you any problem. After doing this, if the problem is solved then you can enable some enhancements that will not cause any problems. You have to check this manually, by going through every Audio Enhancement and check whether if it's not causing any trouble then only enable it otherwise just disable it.
Can I disable Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation process?
No, you can't disable it as its related to Windows Audio Service. Disabling it will cause System sound also to get disabled. You can't temporarily disable it as doing it will cause Windows to give you the option to Run Trouble Shooter instead.
If you have tried disabling Audio Enhancements and then also problem remains. Then TroubleShoot won't be of much help. But if you haven't done that then you can try TroubleShooter to solve your problem. You can also start troubleshooter by typing "troubleshooting" on your Start menu and then click Enter key.
It should open "Windows\System32" folder, then you can be certain that it's definitely not a virus rather its a System Process.
However, as a last resort, you can your preferred Anti-Virus Scan or Re-Install Windows 10 and start fresh.
Conclusion – What is Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation?
It's an Audio Enhancement service process in Windows, that will provide Audio Enhancements but it's not optimized for a particular Hardware or its hardware independent. If its creating problem by using a high number of System Resources then you can disable it and install any other Software for Audio Enhancements.

Sometimes when I drink a glass of water, I'm struck by how amazing water is, how great it is that I have access to nice, clean water, and how my body is made up of such a large percentage of water. As you may recall from science class, water is one of the key factors promoting life on our planet. In fact, research regarding life on other planets begins by looking for evidence of the presence of water. So today's post is a celebration of watery books—one nonfiction lead and a handful of picture books—slightly obscure, cool ones, my favorite kind!
Water by Trevor Day (2007)
Another gorgeous offering from the nonfiction folks at DK publishing (makers of the Eyewitness series). Day and a team of graphic artists treat us to a myriad of facts about nature's finest ingredient in this page-turning nonfiction extravaganza. Yes, it would make a good source for a school report on water, but anyone with an ounce of curiosity will find themselves intrigued by some of the material here. For example, did you know that an adult female human is 50% water, an adult male is 60% water, and an infant is 70% water?
Besides the obvious, well-presented spreads about things like the water cycle and weather, we find out about sewer robots in Germany; the amount of water required to maintain livestock versus oranges, rice, and wheat; the reason Baikul in Russia is the only major lake that isn't being silted out of existence; and how a freshwater pumping station can be located in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea for boat traffic. There's also a timeline of key events in water history, ambitiously starting 4 billion years back before jumping to a more modern 9,000 BCE.
You'll get a nod to global warming and its relationship to the world's water, a gorgeous fold-out illustrating the water cycle, and my favorite graphic, a drawing of the globe that repositions all of the water on one end and the land on the other, including a breakdown of fresh and saltwater and glaciers. Did you know that the equivalent of 350 billion Olympic-sized swimming pools evaporates from Earth's surface daily?
For a user-friendly look at our watery world, track down this book. I'd recommend it for ages 8-12 as well as interested adults.
The Old Woman and the Wave, written and illustrated by Shelley Jackson (1998)
Essentially a parable, this book is the story of a cranky old woman whose house is haunted or maybe stalked by an enormous wave which simply curves high above the roof, dripping. The old woman covers her roof with large umbrellas and yells at the wave to go away, but it persists in hanging around. Then a passing stranger admires the wave, the old woman's dog goes for a swim in the wave, and she can ignore it no longer. She ends up making peace with the wave, which willingly takes her on an epic journey into the unknown. I'm pretty sure this book is about taking risks, but it could be about a lot of things. The mixed-media art is unusual and lovely, and children will probably giggle at the idea of that giant wave even as they enjoy following the old woman's transformation.
The Whale's Song by Dyan Sheldon, illustrated by Gary Blythe (1991)
Despite the realistic style of the paintings, this is a magical book, or perhaps we should call it magical realism. The Whale's Song begins:
Lilly's grandmother told her a story.
"Once upon a time," she said, "the ocean was filled with whales. They were as big as the hills. They were as peaceful as the moon. They were the most wonderful creatures you could ever imagine."
Grandmother goes on to hint to Lilly that if she goes to the end of the pier and gives the whales something special—"A perfect shell. Or a beautiful stone."—they might sing for her. Naysayer Great-uncle Frederick scoffs at all of this, but Lilly creeps out by night to try her grandmother's suggestion. After her initial failure and more discouragement from Frederick, she goes back home, but then something magical happens. (I hope that you, like me, will ignore the implication that Lilly might be dreaming at this point!) The illustrations are particularly beautiful, as is this book's magical take on the giants of the sea.
Water Boy, written and illustrated by David McPhail (2007)
When a boy hears at school that he is mostly water, he worries that he will dissolve in the rain, among other things. He was already a reluctant bather, and now he decides to avoid water diligently. But his mother comforts him, so he gradually makes friends with water. In fact, water makes friends with him, too! It starts to follow him around, especially after he asks his grandmother to make him a sweater "the color of the ocean on a cloudless afternoon."
Strange things began to happen. One evening, as he was helping with the dishes, the water from the faucet curled into letters that spelled his name.
The boy becomes capable of all kinds of watery feats, and then the water asks for his help. At this point, we get a gentle lesson about fighting pollution. Water Boy meanders like a brook, but it is a charming tale, with lovely, watery illustrations and an engaging young hero. The jacket design is especially nice.
Up, written and illustrated by Jim LaMarche (2006)
Before there was a Pixar movie, Jim LaMarche created this book. It's mostly the story of a boy whose father and older brother think he's too little to help, but the conflict is set on the shore, and the help has to do with work on a fishing boat. Tired of being called Mouse, Daniel exerts his exasperation and develops an ability to lift objects with his mind.
But rather than going all sci-fi with this, the author/illustrator is more subtle; Daniel doesn't advertise his newfound power, which at first can only lift small things very slightly. Eventually, he uses it to assist in saving a beached whale, although only his father suspects Daniel's gift, and even he's not sure. What he is sure of is that Daniel is old enough to go out on the fishing boat. Like Water Boy, Up is notable for truly stunning artwork. It should also prove comforting for kids in the 5-to-7 range who feel that the world doesn't take them seriously enough.
So perhaps you've been longing to go to the beach or at least longing for a nice tall glass of water: have a book while you're at it! Please feel free to list other watery books in the comments.
Labels: David McPhail, DK Publishing, Jim LaMarche, Shelley Jackson, Trevor Day, water, Water Boy
All of these books look absolutely wonderful! I can't wait to check them out!

Q: Animation: specify speed, not time I have a draggable element $myElement with revert: true. Now specifying revertDuration will determine the time the reverting animation will take to complete.
My problem is that the speed of the animation will vary greatly depending on how far $myElement is dropped from the original location.
Is there a way of specifying the speed of the animation (as opposed to the total time)?

A: What you need is position plugin for jQuery UI found here: http://jqueryui.com/demos/position/
You can get offset of the draggable element. Or simply use:
var x = $myElement.offset().left
var y = $myElement.offset().top

Solution which comes to my mind:
Save position of the element when start event of draggable object is fired. Then do the same when 'stop' event occurs and animate the element back to starting offset. The difference in offsets is a line which its length will be proportional to the time required to travel back.
var x,y;
$myElement.draggable({
    start: function(event, ui) {
        x = $myElement.offset().left;
        y = $myElement.offset().top;
    },
    stop: function(event, ui) {
        // count the length of the line from starting point
        // and trigger back animation
    }
});

You can try to set revert duration when stop event is called to avoid animate but I don't know if it make it before revert animation.
$( ".selector" ).draggable( "option", "revertDuration", 1000 );

Sarah Palin on Welfare & Poverty
Republican Governor (AK); ; nominee for Vice President
EITC moves thousands of welfare recipients into workforce
WHEREAS, the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is a refundable federal income tax credit for people who work but earn low wages. It is a work-support program, designed to encourage work by providing a financial incentive to work and by allowing low-income workers to keep more of the money they earn.
WHEREAS, the EITC has encouraged hundreds of thousands of welfare recipients to enter the workforce; it continues to lift more families out of poverty than any other federal program;
WHEREAS, the EITC put roughly $60 million into the pockets of Alaska's low-income working families and individuals last year.
WHEREAS, unfortunately, each year many qualified people fail to apply for the EITC because they do not know about it, do not know they are eligible, or do not know how to apply.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Gov. Sarah Palin, do hereby proclaim Feb. 1, 2008, as Alaska Earned Income Tax Credit Awareness Day, and urge Alaskans who are eligible to apply for the EITC.

Recognize Salvation Army and encourage charity to them
WHEREAS, the Salvation Army, or East London Christian Mission as it was first known, was founded in 1865.
WHEREAS, The Salvation Army started its work in Alaska in 1898 and today serves people in 15 communities across our state, as well as serving people around the globe in more than 110 countries and on all continents.
WHEREAS, The Salvation Army is an evangelical part of the universal Christian Church and its mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination.
WHEREAS, The Salvation Army today assists more than 42 million people throughout the US.
WHEREAS, the State of Alaska recognizes the important charitable work of The Salvation Army and encourages Alaskans to support the kickoff of the Red Kettle campaign on Thursday, November 15, 2007.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Gov. Sarah Palin, do hereby proclaim November 15, 2007, as Red Kettle Day in Alaska, and encourage all citizens to give to local charities. Source: Alaska Governor's Office: Proclamation, "Red Kettle Day" Nov 13, 2007
Funding for faith-based initiatives is adequate today
Q: Do you support an increase in state-funded, faith-based initiatives?
A: We see an adequate level of funding for faith-based initiatives today.
Q: What, specifically, would you do to help make rural Alaska sustain itself economically?
A: I support a municipal revenue sharing so local areas can prioritize their own needs. The state needs to establish a rural energy plan. Commercial fishing is a mainstay for many villages, and I oppose actions that cut off Alaskans from our fisheries. Source: Anchorage Daily News: 2006 gubernatorial candidate profile Oct 22, 2006

About a month ago, I rode exactly 12 tube stops past my own. I bring this up not to brag about how well travelled I am, or for the sake of complaining on the internet, but because it signified a real issue: I was insanely overworked.
To meet a handful of deadlines, I'd been spending, on average, 11 hours a day in the office, eating lunch at my desk (or skipping it entirely), and answering emails in the few post-work hours I had left (at home, out with friends, on dates, and, clearly most disastrously, on the subway).
This is hardly a unique situation — a 2016 study by ManpowerGroup shows that millennials in the U.S. are working 45 hours a week on average. And the majority of my friends struggle to achieve a good work-life balance, too. In an effort to get myself out of my work-first mindset, I finally decided to do something about it. I looked to the French for inspiration.
In 2000, France mandated a 35-hour workweek (meaning employees can't work more than that without being paid overtime) to reduce unemployment rates and offer its citizens a better quality of life. So for seven days, I decided to follow the French way. I'd work no more than seven hours a day, take a full hour for lunch, and not check email outside the office, in hopes that I could finally achieve a better work-life balance or, at the very least, stop missing my subway stop.
I'm notoriously terrible at detaching from my phone, so on the first day of my 35-hour workweek, I decided to leave it behind in the office while I went out for lunch — that way I'd have no chance of checking my email. I took a packed salad and ate in a nearby park, and I didn't let myself return to the office for a full hour. I expected to be a nervous, email-wistful wreck, but somehow, the hour went by insanely fast. I read, did some non-work writing, and enjoyed not spilling salad over my keyboard for the first time ever.
When I got back to the office, things were a little less rose-coloured. I had several unread emails and Slack messages, and I felt way behind in my to-dos. When 5 p.m. rolled around and my seven work hours were up, the panic really set in. I envisioned myself staying up til 3 a.m. playing catch-up...except I couldn't. I had worked all the hours I was allowed for the day, and even emails were a no-go.
As I focused on my breathing, I felt my work-related thoughts begin to slip away. I felt genuinely calm and clear-headed.
In an effort to fully clear my mind of everything work related, I decided to take a meditation class. I scooted out of the office — being careful not to make eye contact with my coworkers for fear of them questioning why I was leaving hours before the norm — and headed to a 30-minute intro meditation class at MNDFL. It was my first time meditating ever, and I was skeptical that I'd actually be able to sit there in peace and tune out work.
I was right. The moment I sat down on the cushion and closed my eyes, I started thinking about deadlines, emails, and all the work I would otherwise be doing in that moment — that is, until the teacher led us through guided breaths. As I focused on my breathing, I felt my work-related thoughts begin to slip away. I felt genuinely calm and clear-headed. 40 seconds later the teacher announced that class was over. I checked one work email after class.
The good news was, my shortened work schedule wasn't actually compromising the quality of my work. In fact, the few things I had left over when I left at 5 p.m. were easy enough to wrap up first thing the following morning. The real problem was that I couldn't get myself to stop thinking about work — to stop imagining what might be in my inbox or brainstorming story ideas.
I realized that the only way I was going to be able to get through the week was if I tapped into that feeling I'd experienced in the meditation room — the fleeting high that came from doing something for myself that had absolutely nothing to do with work. I needed to spend my lunch breaks and evenings doing things I'd always wanted to do but never felt like I had the time to.
To really lean into the French spirit at lunch, I stopped by Le District, a Parisian-style marketplace and collection of restaurants near my office. I sat down at a counter, ordered steak frites, and lingered over the meal without once worrying about my to-do lists or wondering what gif-filled messages I was missing on Slack. When I got back to the office, there was plenty to catch up on, but I felt far more relaxed about it all. In fact, that hour away from my projects let me approach them with a clearer head.
When I left at 5 p.m., I didn't feel stressed about cutting things short. Maybe I was subconsciously working faster to overcompensate for the lost time, or maybe stepping away from work midday actually made a difference. Either way, I was actually ahead on the majority of my to-dos. I decided to use my extra nighttime hours trying a new workout, Box + Flow, which combines elements of boxing and yoga (a significant departure from my regular routine of walking to the gym at 9 p.m., arriving at the door, and promptly turning around to go home). I was able to totally suppress work thoughts during the class, and when I got home and scrolled through Instagram and Twitter, I had zero desire to check my work email.
It was about setting boundaries for myself — something I'd been hesitant to do for fear of coming off as entitled or disinterested in my job.
By Friday, I was actually starting to believe that work-life balance was a real, achievable thing. I was able to squeeze a pedicure into my lunch break, and after work I did something utterly groundbreaking: I made it to happy hour. Yes, I drank a $5 (£3.75) cocktail inside a bar in New York City.
In the end, it wasn't about living like the French. It was about feeling comfortable setting boundaries for myself at work — something I'd been hesitant to do for fear of coming off as entitled or disinterested in my job. I didn't get in trouble for not answering an email that came in at 7:45 p.m., I didn't fall behind on my work, and I didn't get chastised for leaving earlier than normal. Was the 35-hour workweek sustainable? Yes and no. In the two weeks since trying it out, I've managed to keep certain boundaries up (for instance, I'm still not checking email past 7 p.m., and I'm trying to get out of the office for lunch at least three days a week), but there have been a handful of occasions where I've had to put in more than seven hours. Still, the number of late nights have dwindled significantly, as have the all-consuming nighttime work thoughts. And I have yet to miss my tube stop again.

Why City Bountiful was not located in the Yucatan, Peten or northern Belize
by Joe Andersen
Mulek was located on the east sea coast "on the east borders by the seashore" (Alma 51:26). The Book of Mormon requires that the city Bountiful be located northward from Mulek, not more than a half day's march (approximately 5 to 10 miles) and near the same seashore.
Alma 52:22-23, states:
22. …Teancum should take a small number of men and march down near the seashore; and Moroni and his army, by night, marched in the wilderness on the west of the city Mulek; and thus, on the morrow, when the guards of the Lamanites had discovered Teancum, they ran and told it unto Jacob, their leader. [If Cerros was Mulek then Moroni's army would have been stationed on the west side of Cerros right on the seashore and Teancum would have been waiting on the northeast side of Cerros near the seashore. Retreating northward from there would have meant that Teancum would have ended up in the Chetumal Bay, see map below].
23. …the armies of the Lamanites did march forth against Teancum, supposing by their numbers to overpower Teancum…And as Teancum saw the armies of the Lamanites coming out against him he began to retreat down by the seashore northward. [This implies that they never left the seashore and always traveled northward. This scripture does not support the idea that they "circled back" somewhere (see pages 603-of Exploring]. Had they "circled back" after leaving Cerros and traveling northward on the seashore, they would have traveled a much greater distance. They would also have to have marched southward to go around the Bay and then crossed a good sized river and a very swampy Delta which would have substantially reduced the distance they could have marched in a half a day.
27. …the Lamanites did pursue Teancum until they came near the city Bountiful, and then they were met by Lehi and a small army, which had been left to protect the city Bountiful. [To me it sounds like they followed Teancum northward along the seashore and never crossed a river or a swampy delta].
28. …when…the Lamanites beheld Lehi…coming against them, they fled in much confusion, lest perhaps they should not obtain the city Mulek before Lehi should overtake them…. [They clearly could have made it back to Mulek within the same day. Therefore, the farthest distance that city Bountiful could have been located from Mulek was not more than a half day's march, (not a day's march as suggested at page 604, of Exploring). I submit that Mulek and Bountiful would not have been more than 10 miles apart.
I submit that the cities Mulek and Bountiful could not have been more that 10 miles apart and therefore, Kohunlich cannot be the city Bountiful because it is located due west from Cerros about 30 miles as the crow flies. Also one could not have traveled northward from Cerros along the beach to get to Kohunlich as required by the Book of Mormon. One would have to have "circled back," traveled southward, and then crossed a large river and swampy delta before marching to Kohunlich or Dzibanche.
It is even more improbable that Dzibanche could have been the city Bountiful because Cerros is located 40 miles from Disbanche as the crow flies and it is more west than north. Again, one could not have traveled northward from Cerros (Mulek) along the seashore to arrive at Dzibanche as required by the Book of Mormon and nothing therein justifies the claim that Teancum "circled back" (see page 603).
I submit that, according to the Book of Mormon, the armies of Teancum and armies of the Lamanites did not march across a large river and swampy delta and about 40 miles inland to the city Bountiful at Dzibanche in a half day. I further submit that this scripture requires city Bountiful to be located not more than about 10 miles northward from Mulek and be very close to the seashore. Therefore, neither Dzibanche nor Kohunlich could have been city Bountiful. (See map above)
The Cities Bountiful, Mulek, and the east-sea land Bountiful could not have been located in northern Belize, Peten, or in the Yucatan because there were too many Maya living there. It would have been a military disaster.
We must recognize and accept the fact that the Nephite/Lamanite/Mulekite people did not include all of the Maya. The enormous Maya culture pre-existed the Nephites by many hundreds of years. To help understand the extent of the Maya culture in central Peten at its peak about 250 BC, I quote from /Authenticmaya.com at mayaculture.htm. Nov.2010:
Most archaeologists agree that ancient Guatemala was the cultural and commerce center of the Americas, and that the Mayan civilization, is the jewel of all ancient American cultures, and one of the greatest civilizations the world has ever known.
The Mayan Culture developed between 3000 and 2000 BC. Pollen samples [have] shown the establishments of agriculture in Guatemala by 4000 BC, and around 2500 BC initiated the building of small cities with some permanent architecture all over the country (Pre-Classic). According to Houston the Cho'lan language, the precursor to the Maya, originated in the Guatemalan Highlands, ca 3000 BC. In the tropical lowlands of El Mirador Basin, in the Petén Lowlands,of Northern Guatemala,…[there are] huge cities like Mirador, Nakbé, San Bartolo, Tintal and others, although there were some early cities in the Guatemala Highlands (Naranjo, Kaminal Juyú, Nebaj, Guaytán, El Portón), and in the Pacific Low Lands (Tak'alik Abaj, Chocolá), [they did] not reach the size of those in Petén where they built at least 27 big cities and countless smaller ones at its peak around 250 BC.
El Mirador, the Cradle of the Maya Civilization, where, the cities were not only numerous, but very sophisticated, and developed, with architectonic structures from 1400 BC, indeed the two biggest cities of the Maya Civilization (Mirador and Tintal) are there, with the same religious beliefs, astronomical, mathematics and writing knowledge [of] those in the Classic period.
El Mirador provides the richest undisturbed laboratory on the origins of the Maya civilization and its earliest kingdoms, culture, history and environment, and the reasons of the _collapse.htm">collapse [about AD 150] of a civilization of nearly one million people [in the Mirador basin].
We don't know if the early Maya went to war mainly to acquire territory, take booty, control conquered groups for labor, take captives for sacrifice in sanctification rituals, or a combination of these.
A Late Classic occupation in the seventh and eighth century AD. occurred in the Mirador Basin, although never approaching the levels seen during the Late Preclassic heyday of the site [250 BC.]
Prior to about 71 BC, the entire area of northern Peten, Yucatan, and Belize was heavily populated with indigenous Maya as noted above. In Belize, the huge city of Lamanai was heavily populated, continuously, from about 1500 BC to after 1500 AD. El Mirador was at its peak about 200 to 300 BC and contained upwards of 200,000 people. It was an expanding city/state and one that practiced human sacrifice.
I submit that the Nephites and or Nephite/Mulekites never occupied or attacked any territory near these above-cited humongous Mayan civilization centers located in northern Peten, Belize, and Yucatan. It would have been foolhardy for Moroni (about 72 BC) to have sent Nephites from Allens' proposed Zarahemla at Santa Rosa, Chiapas over 300 miles as the crow flies to build and settle a new city Bountiful at Dzibanche, Yucatan. They would had to have passed through the Mirador complex or the Lamanai complex and hundreds of other large Mayan cities on their way. And then they would have to have conquered Cerros (Mulek) because Cerros, in Belize, was already an existing city. It states at www.authenticmaya.com:
Cerros is located in the north of Belize on a peninsula across from Corozal Town and in the Bay of Chetumal. During the Pre-Classic Period (100B.C- 250A.D), Cerros was important as a coastal trading center.
The Nephites never had the manpower to have conquered the Maya in Petén, Belize or Yucatan
According to the Book of Mormon, prior to about the year 200 BC, the Nephites were living south of the narrow strip of mountainous wilderness in the land of Nephi. About 200 BC King Mosiah 1 "fled" the land of Nephi with "as many as would hearken unto the voice of the Lord." They congregated upon the hill north of Shilom, (Mosiah 11:1) and then crossing the narrow strip of mountainous wilderness before going down into the city of Zarahemla where they merged with the Mulekites. With the consent of the Mulekites, Mosiah 1 also became their king (Omni 1:13). How many Nephites came with King Mosiah 1? 5,000 to 20,000? Perhaps.
I submit that at this time the land of Zarahemla occupied a very limited area surrounding the city of Zarahemla. By 91 BC, the time of Alma the younger about 100 years later, the land of Zarahemla, notwithstanding civil wars and many battles between the Lamanites and the Nephites, had expanded to include the following (See my article FootPrint at BMAF.org.):
1. Ammonihah (3 days journey for Alma) to the north and slightly to the west of Zarahemla.
2. Gideon, east across the river Sidon and about a day's journey southeast from Zarahemla.
3. Manti south of Zarahemla (not more than 50 miles or so) and up in the narrow strip of mountainous wilderness.
4. Melek, west from Zarahemla, perhaps not more than a day's journey or so.
5. The west-sea land bountiful area northward to the line between Desolation and Bountiful.
By the time Moroni came onto the scene in the year 74 BC (Alma 43:16), the Nephites and the land of Zarahemla were "nearly surrounded by Lamanites". Moroni had the monumental task of stopping the Lamanite encroachment from the east sea area, the area south of the narrow strip of wilderness, and the west sea area.
One should ask what was the purpose for Moroni's locating "many cities", including the city Bountiful, on or near the east seashore. The answer is that after he chased the Lamanites out of the east sea area and forced "all the Lamanites" (Alma 50:7) to relocate south of the narrow strip of wilderness, he was trying to keep them out by establishing new cities in that area. This was a strategic military decision. I do not believe Moroni would have located those cities in non-strategic areas, such as 150 to 200 miles northward from the narrow strip of wilderness, in the areas of northern Belize or the Petén or the Yucatan. He certainly would not have allowed these new east-sea-area defensive cities to have been separated by heavily populated cities like Lamanai. And there is no evidence that he conquered any east sea coastal Mayan city.
I submit that these new eastern cities were all located proximately to each other to ensure each other's safety and to keep the Lamanites out of the east sea area. He further would have done nothing to invite hostile action by the neighboring Maya to the north. It seems reasonable to me that the Nephites had an amiable trading relationship with the Maya to the North and did not want the Lamanites to interrupt that relationship.
Clearly the cities Bountiful and Mulek were within 10 miles or less from each other. Morianton and Lehi were closer than that because of the border disputes they had. Therefore, it seems to me that all of the other cities named in Alma 51:26 from the city Moroni (located at the very eastern edge of the land of Zarahemla near the east sea and just north of the land of the Lamanites) to the city Bountiful should not have been separated by a distance greater than between 30 to 50 miles.
I do not believe it possible that the Nephites ever "invaded" those northern areas or even attempted to locate any cities near where so many Maya people were living. Certainly Moroni,
in 72 BC, did not chase "all" the "one million plus Maya" out of those areas and did not make them locate south of the narrow strip of mountainous wilderness. So, therefore, it appears to me that the cities of Bountiful, Gid, Mulek and the other east sea cities built by Moroni about 72 BC were probably located south of Belize, or at the very most perhaps in the southern most part of Belize where it borders on Guatemala.
On page 596 of Exploring, it states an erroneous time period (150 BC) when the Maya began populating the areas of Petén and Belize:
At page 595-96 "…this area [the vast Maya heartland including Belize] was heavily populated beginning at 150 BC and continuing to the conquest of Mexico in the sixteenth century. This area is literally dotted with ruins of ancient buildings, including Tikal, El Mirador, Bonampak, Uaxactún, Rio Negro, Lamanai, and Altun Ha. As seen above, this is a misstatement of the facts about the Maya and their beginnings and populating of El Mirador, etc. El Mirador began before 1500 BC and was continuously occupied until its first demise about 150 AD. Lamanai in Belize was populated continuously from about 1500 BC to about AD 1500.
On page 598, After the Nephites had driven all the Lamanites out of the east wilderness (the Petén and Belize) south into their (the Lamanites') own land—that is the highlands of Guatemala—the Nephites went forth into the east wilderness, or the Petén, to occupy it. They went as far as the borders of the seashore (Belize) to possess the land. If that were true then the Nephites would have to have driven all the million-plus Maya out of Mirador, Uaxactún, Tikal, Tintal, Nakbe, San Bartolo, Lamanai and hundreds of other cities in the Petén and Belize areas and driven all of them to the south of the narrow strip of wilderness. Note I did not say "to the highlands of Guatemala" because the Book of Mormon does not say that. Alma 50:7 says "…and drove all the Lamanites who were in the east wilderness into their own lands, which were south of the land of Zarahemla."The land of Nephi included the east sea area south of the narrow strip of wilderness and this area was not part of the "highlands of Guatemala."
If the Lamanites had occupied all of the Petén and Belize as claimed, then the Lamanites would have had to have left the land of Nephi prior to 200 BC and gone into the Petén and Belize in mass and constructed all those humongous structures between about 500 BC and 72 BC when Moroni chased them all "back" "into their own lands." Such a scenario flies in the face of reason and the known archeological findings of the area and is certainly not corroborated by the Book of Mormon.
On page 597, "…The Petén and Belize rainforests constituted the east wilderness of Zarahemla. … Because we are talking about the east wilderness and because it is
I submit that If this were true then one must conclude that all of the Maya were part of the Nephite people and I do not believe that was possible, and I do not believe that the Book of Mormon supports this claim. Clearly the Nephites had their hands full defending the Lamanites from the south without also controlling and defending the "Mayan Lamanites" from the north.
The Book of Mormon does not support changing the headquarters of the church to the city Bountiful.
The Allens suggest that the "church" headquarters of the Nephites was moved from Zarahemla to the city Bountiful (on page 612) about 36 BC (page 614) and that this east-sea land Bountiful covered the "entire area" (page 615) of Petén and Belize.
To believe that the Nephites moved their headquarters to the city Bountiful in Dzibanche and controlled the entire nation of the Maya in Petén, Belize, and possibly Yucatan from about 36 BC to who-knows-when after Christ is most incredible. This claim is based on Helaman 4:4-6 (see page 613). The problem is that the rest of the scripture was not cited which clearly places the event not in the east-sea Bountiful but in the west-sea Bountiful. Helaman 4:5-8 states:
Helaman 4:5. [In the 34th year BC the Nephite dissenters and the Lamanite armies] "…succeeded in obtaining possession of the land of Zarahemla; yea, and also all the lands, even unto [not in yet] the land which was near the land Bountiful."
Helaman 4:6 "And the Nephites and the armies of Moronihah were driven even into [now they go in] the land of Bountiful; [this land Bountiful was located on the west sea coast, see verse 7 below.]
Helaman 4:10. (In the 31st year BC) "…they succeeded in regaining even the half of all their possessions." I submit that this included the city of Zarahemla. (See Helaman 13:12-16) Also note that in the year 30 BC Nephi still held the judgment seat at Zarahemla (See Hel 5:1). Therefore, Nephi had not moved to the "new headquarters" of the Church in the city Bountiful, at Dzibanche, Yucatan, Mexico.
Who was the prophet, the head of the church, and the keeper of the plates and records during the years 53 BC to 39 BC, and held the Judgment seat from 50 BC to 39 BC)? Helaman, son of Helaman (see Alma 63:11-12 and Helaman 2:2).
Who was the prophet, the head of the church, and the keeper of the plates and records during the years 39 BC to 1 BC? Nephi, son of Helaman. (See Hel 2:2 and Hel 5:1 and 3 Ne 1:2). He also held the judgment seat from 39/BC to 30 BC?
Where was his residence and land of his nativity? Zarahemla (Hel 7:3, 10 & 3 Ne 3:9).
Where was Nephi, son of Helaman, residing when he gave the plates and all the records to his son Nephi in the year one AD? Zarahemla (3 Ne 1:2). It was not the city Bountiful.
Where were the records during this time? Zarahemla (See 3 Ne 1:2-9 & 2:9).
Was Lachoneus a prophet? Yes (See 3 Ne 3:16-19). The chief Judge? Yes. The governor? Yes. (See 3 Ne 3:1). From where did he rule? Zarahemla. (See 3 Ne 1:1 & 3:1 & 3:17).
When did Lachoneus begin his reign? One BC. It was the same time and place where Nephi, son of Helaman died. Then when did the headquarters of the church return to Zarahemla from city Bountiful? It did not. I submit that it never left Zarahemla until Christ was crucified when the city of Zarahemla burned.
When did Lachoneus end his reign and where was he living? AD 29 living back in Zarahemla after returning from the west-sea Bountiful after abandoning the Nephite cities to the Gadianton Robbers in the year AD 17 (See 3 Ne 6:19 & 25).
There is no indication that the headquarters of the church was anywhere except Zarahemla until Christ died.
The only time that the Book of Mormon mentions that Nephi, son of Helaman, went to the city Bountiful was the year 30 BC after Nephi, son of Helaman, gave up the judgment seat to Cezoram. Nephi and his brother, Lehi, thereafter dedicated their lives to (see chapters 5 through 10 of Helaman):
…teaching the word of God among all the people of Nephi beginning at the city Bountiful…and from thenceforth to the city of Gid; and from the city of Gid to the city of Mulek;..even from one city to another, until they had gone forth among all the people of
Nephi who were in the land southward; and from thence into the land of Zarahemla, among the Lamanites…eight thousand of the Lamanites [were] baptized…[and then] Nephi and Lehi did proceed from thence to go to the land of Nephi…and the Lamanites' righteousness did exceed that of the Nephites…and many of the Lamanites did come down into the land of Zarahemla. …and…many of the Lamanites did go into the land northward; and also Nephi and Lehi went into the land northward…In the [23rd year BC] Nephi returned to the land of Zarahemla from the land northward…[where] they did reject all his words insomuch that he could not stay among them but returned again unto the land of his nativity. …Nephi had bowed himself upon the tower which was in his garden…which was by the highway which led to the chief market, which was in the city of Zarahemla…there were some who said that Nephi was a prophet…others who said: behold, he is a god…Nephi went his way towards his own house…a voice came unto him saying:…"Behold thou art Nephi, and I am God. …I give unto you power that whatsoever ye shall seal on earth shall be sealed in heaven; and whatsoever you shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven and thus ye shall have power among this people. [at 3 Nephi 1:2, the year AD 1] Nephi, son of Helaman having departed out of the land of Zarahemla, giving charge unto his son Nephi, who was his eldest son, concerning the plates of brass, and all the records, which had been kept, and all those things which had been kept sacred from the departure of Lehi out of Jerusalem.
Was Nephi, son of Helaman, the Prophet, Sear, and Revelator? Yes. Was he the leader of the Church? Yes. Was he living in Zarahemla? Yes. Was he residing in the city Bountiful? No. Did he give the all the keys, records and all things sacred to his son Nephi in AD 1? Yes. Was Nephi, son of Nephi living in Zarahemla at the time? Yes.
It is very clear to me that there was never a relocation of the headquarters of the church from Zarahemla to Bountiful. I submit that neither city Bountiful nor the headquarters of the church was ever located north of the large Maya city states of El Mirador and Lamanai at Dzibanche or Kohunlich or anywhere near those areas.
I further submit that the east sea wilderness described in the Book of Mormon did not include the Mayan people of Petén, northern Belize, or the Yucatan. The city Bountiful was mentioned only from its beginning about 71 BC to 30 BC when Nephi, son of Helaman started his missionary journey there. It is never mentioned again and the Book of Mormon never says that there was a temple in city Bountiful.
Christ first appeared at west sea Bountiful and not at city Bountiful.
I submit that Christ did not initially come to the city Bountiful on the east sea coast but to the west-sea Bountiful for the following reasons:
1. The Book of Mormon never mentions a temple in any east sea location.
2. City Bountiful and east-sea land Bountiful are never mentioned after 30 BC.
3. City Bountiful was located at the extreme northern area of the Nephite occupation on the east sea area and not where most of the Nephites lived.
4. West-sea Bountiful was located more near the heartland of the Nephites about the time of Christ's first appearance.
5. Lachoneus never went to the east-sea Bountiful area for protection but to the west-sea Bountiful in the year 16 AD.
6. The Maya "Lamanites" had so heavily populated the areas of northern Petén and Belize at the time of Christ's resurrection that it would have been impossible for there to have been substantial numbers of faithful Nephites including faithful Lamanites in that area.
7. The areas of northern Petén, Yucatan, and Belize were too far from Zarahemla for the Nephites to have effectively protected and governed those territories.
The city Bountiful and the east sea land Bountiful were never mentioned after 30 BC. (Hel. 5:14) The east sea is mentioned in Helaman 11:20, however the city and land Bountiful are not. From this time forward term "Bountiful" always has reference to the west-sea Bountiful.
It seems to me that there must have been a good reason for Lachoneus, (in the year AD 17) to have relocated his "tens of thousands" of Nephites, after abandoning Zarahemla to the robbers led by Giddianhi (3 Nephi 3 & 4), to an area on the west sea coast that they were already familiar with. It would have been near where they had support from those Nephites who had relocated there and, perhaps, support from those who had relocated into the land northward. This was also close to the same area where Hagoth had built and launched his ships some 50 years prior. Surely there were friendly Nephites in this appointed area.
It also seems reasonable that they would have traveled along an existing route and not a foot-path in the wilderness somewhere because they took their "horses, and their chariots, and their cattle, and all their flocks, and their herds, and their grain, and all their substance and did march forth by the thousands and by tens of thousands, until they had all gone forth to the place which had been appointed… (3 Ne 3:22)…the land which was appointed was the land of Zarahemla, and the land which was between the land Zarahemla and the land Bountiful, yea, to [not beyond] the line which was between the land Bountiful and the land Desolation. …Lachoneus did cause that they should gather themselves together in the land southward, because of the great curse which was upon the land northward (see 3 Nephi 3:22-25)." [Clearly they settled in that part of the greater land of Zarahemla that was called Bountiful from the "Line" and southward as needed because they settled in one place near the land northward. An excellent candidate for this location is the huge and once heavily populated area called La Perseverancia located just southward from the "line". Notice also that sometimes the term "Land southward" means land Bountiful. Had there not been a drought in the land Northward, Lachoneus would have located in the land northward.
The proposed land Bountiful on the west sea is an area west of the Sierra Madre Mountains and southward from about Tonala, near Tehuantepec, Mexico. This is an area with an annual rainfall of over 200 inches and, unlike other areas in Mesoamerica, rarely goes without rain even in the dry season. Also remember that the reason Lachoneus did not go into the land northward was because of the drought there at the time.
The southern part of this west-sea land Bountiful would have been located near the Book of Mormon city of Joshua, which was located near the archeological site of Izapa, Mexico.
I maintain that Dr. Hauck has very good reason to believe that when Christ first appeared to Nephites at the temple in the land Bountiful, he must have come to a temple in the west-sea land Bountiful, possibly at Izapa where the "Tree of Life stone" is located. As noted above there are also very good reasons to believe that Christ did not first appear at city Bountiful on the east sea coast.
