There seems to be a consensus as to the advantages and disadvantages of team or group structured activities. Almost every list or article that we read, we find that participation and conflict are among the top disadvantages. However, not everyone agrees that the disadvantages outweigh the potential that team or group activities can present. Additionally, and more specifically, the decision-making process can be greatly affected by many factors related with these dynamics.
On the other hand, participation, although it can also be found on most lists, has a few unusual and interesting outcomes. Some believe that the participation or lack of participation can play different roles and have completely different impacts within the group. The negative aspect is often generated by unequal participant contribution in the activities and deliverables assigned. However, participation is seen in a positive light within most groups who are faced with more complex or difficult tasks. I have found that some, who might be bored otherwise, are more engaged when the stakes are higher or when the complexity is more challenging or thought provoking. In these cases, it is important that each member be assessed for their skills and assigned relative work assignments. … As would be imagined, decision-making in these cases, regardless of the number of participants, can tend to take longer since a consensus is often required.
One thing is certain, and that is that no one person has all the answers. If groups are able to clear the hurdles and challenges of group dynamics, most would agree that there is more knowledge, experience, and resource hours available in any group activity. One thing that we often stress is the importance of focusing on the purpose and the goal. Doing so without involving anyone's personal agenda will most often result in the most successful decision for the organization.

JAMSBio, the Internet's leading music magazine, recently publishes the first chapter of author Tom Grasty's taut thriller inspired by the life and music of Bob Dylan.
Pete Freckelton, host and founder of Dylan Radio, recently featured Tom Grasty's new rock n' roll murder-mystery, BLOOD ON THE TRACKS.

Tom Grasty was interviewed Saturday, May 10, 2008, on San Francisco's KPOO by Donald Lacy, host of the long-running "Wake Up Everybody." Mr. Grasty discussed his new rock n' roll murder-mystery, BLOOD ON THE TRACKS.
For more information on KPOO click here.
Tom Grasty signed his debut novel, Blood on the Tracks, at the LA Festival of Books Saturday and Sunday, April 26-27, 2008.
The LA Festival of Books takes place the last weekend in April on the UCLA campus in Los Angeles. For more info on this year's festival, visit the Festival's website.
It's been said you can't go home again. Well, that axiom apparently hasn't held up for Tom Grasty, author of the recently released rock n' roll murder-mystery, BLOOD ON THE TRACKS.
From 1983-86, 'home' was Phillips Exter Academy in Exeter, New Hampshire. And this April, his old alumni magazine, The Exeter Bulletin, made Tom feel quite at home when fellow alumnus, Ali T. Kokmen, took a little time to review Tom's novel.
A 15-year veteran of the book publishing industry, Ali T. Kokmen currently works for RandomHouse as the marketing manager for their Del Rey line of graphic novels and manga.

Grasty's Novel Featured on "Radio Facts"
Bold and unapologetic, Radio Facts is the unique Urban Industry Resource for the music industry. If you haven't checked them out yet, click here.
And while you're there, check out the 'Blood blurb' on Grasty's new novel.
Tom Grasty's new novel, Blood on the Tracks, will be available at the upcoming exhibit, "Bob Dylan's American Journey, 1956–1966" (February 8 through June 8, 2008) at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles.
For more information on Blood on the Tracks, keep reading.
Founded in 1997, by Chicago-area music fanatic Christopher Thelen (a.k.a. Bob Pierce), The Daily Vault reviews music of all genres and from all eras, including CD reviews, concert reviews, artist interviews, and now...the new novel by Tom Grasty, Blood on the Tracks.
In addition to being a writer, Tom Grasty also teaches writing. And the school where he teaches it, California State University, Fullerton, is now writing about him.
Click on image below to read the interview.
In his daily Podictionary entry, Charles Hodgson, author of Carnal Knowledge: A Navel Gazer's Dictionary of Anatomy, Etymology, and Trivia, 'alludes' to Blood on the Tracks.
In a bit of verbal acrobatics, Hodgson writes: "Tom Grasty has actually written a book called Blood on the Tracks that isn't about Bob Dylan, but alludes to him. That means Tom's book never actually mentions Bob Dylan, but Blood on the Tracks; a Dylan album, like duh!"

What marks a body as "different"? How do bodily differences shape perception and management of our bodies, creating and enforcing stigmas? In order to more fully understand what bodily difference means, we need to explore race, disability, and age as well as other markers of bodily difference including class, gender, and sexuality through a socio-cultural lens rather than only a biological/scientific one.
Early 20th century researchers Franz Boas, a cultural anthropologist, Max Weber, a sociologist, and W.E.B. Dubois, a sociologist and activist, claimed that race was a social, not biological, construct. Furthering this research, late 20th century sociologists Michael Omi and Howard Winant argue in their seminal book Racial Formation in the United States that
once we understand that race overflows the boundaries of skin color, super-exploitation, social stratification, discrimination and prejudice, cultural domination and cultural resistance, state policy (or of any other particular social relationship we list), once we recognize the racial dimension present to some degree in every identity, institution and social practice in the United States—once we have done this, it becomes possible to speak of racial formation. This recognition is hard-won; there is a continuous temptation to think of race as an essence, as something fixed, concrete and objective, as (for example) one of the categories just enumerated. And there is also an opposite temptation: to see it as a mere illusion, which an ideal social order would eliminate. In our view it is crucial to break with these habits of thought. The effort must be made to understand race as an unstable and 'decentered' complex of social meanings constantly being transformed by political struggle (13).
Some bodies are born with hereditary physical impairment and some acquired through accidents, infections or diseases. Some impairment occurs naturally, through the aging process. "While impairment refers to some loss of physiological or anatomical capacity, the term disability registers the repercussions of impairment and the difficulties a person may have engaging with the physical and built environment" (Howson 29). We can examine the range of effects various disabilities present and the myriad ways people have, through activism and creativity, contended with it, from classical musicians such as Beethoven to contemporary jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt. AXIS Dance Company is an especially dynamic example example of physically integrated dance.
What does it mean to grow older? How do our bodies change? How are older bodies perceived and treated? Emmanuelle Tulle-Winton, a sociologist specializing in old age, posits that "Ageing and, in particular, old age is similarly associated with changes and alternations in the shape, appearance and function of the body that may cause pain or discomfort and contribute to the social devaluation of ageing and old people" (Howson 189). As bodies grow older, they are "…defined in terms of productivity, the absence of which leads to social and economic marginalization" (Howson 190). Media unfortunately reinforce this perspective. "Hollywood has been especially unfriendly toward older people, either portraying them as comic foils or ignoring them completely. This attitude has reinforced cultural stereotypes related to aging and has lowered older peoples' sense of self-worth" (Samuel 12).

It shouldn't come as a surprise that we as a team building company believe in what we do, but recently we've made a commitment to engage in a new team building activity every Friday. Before this, we had committed to one big outing a year, but we have come to realize how important it is to schedule more regular activities. Not only does it give us further insight into our clients' needs, but it also strengthens our office as a unit.
Team cohesiveness is like a muscle, one that needs to be exercised regularly to stay in shape. By completing team challenges we can practice working together through difficulties inherent to the business world. While things most often go smoothly, these activities are a great way to unearth opportunities for growth and improvement. By participation, observation, and reflection we come to find out our strengths and weaknesses, something which should really be a lifelong study.
In one of our more recent activities passing a ball around on various pieces of wood and tubing, we observed how we had a tendency to jump into experimenting with solutions before talking it out. While occasionally this approach works, it can be counter-productive for more complex challenges, which more often benefit from some prologue discussion. Upon reflection, we were able to identify some occasions at work in which we approached things the same way. These moments of reflection and realization are invaluable when it comes to team development and work wonders for increasing camaraderie and trust.
So if you're looking for some ideas for quick team building activities, feel free to check out our PDF with five team building activities you can do during a lunch break. Or get in touch with us to plan a half or full-day event. Otherwise, if you call in on a Friday morning and don't reach us right away, it's probably because we're tackling another fun challenge as a team!

Wisconsin APSE Celebrates 20 Years
Wisconsin APSE 0 Comment(s)
December 12, 2018 – In 2018, the Wisconsin Association for Employment First (Wisconsin APSE) celebrates its 20th year of supporting principles of inclusiveness and integrated employment for people with disabilities. This year has been monumental for statewide inclusiveness, with the passing of the Employment First Bill and Partners in Business Bill. Due to the work of a coalition of many disability advocacy groups, including Wisconsin APSE, the entire state has a heightened understanding and responsibility for ensuring that people with disabilities who want to work can do so.
During this pivotal time, Wisconsin APSE has reviewed its role in the progress of employment and will shift its focus further into educating and training businesses, prevocational and supported employment organizations, and schools on the best ways to support people with disabilities in achieving and succeeding in the workplace. Molly Gilgenbach, Co-President for Wisconsin APSE shares: "Wisconsin has made a lot of incredible progress over the last five years and we couldn't be more pleased with the outcomes of 2018. Our board is stronger than ever and focused on continuing to encourage the advancement and empowerment of people with disabilities."
Wisconsin APSE has launched a new website which showcases success stories of people with disabilities in addition to providing training information and many resources on self-determination, community inclusion, and employment best practices. Wisconsin APSE has also recently partnered with the Wisconsin Board for People with Developmental Disabilities and others to be a part of a federal Living Well Grant which will take steps to advance home and community-based supports across the state. This work will leave a lasting mark over the next five years and is designed to allow people with disabilities to live more safely and independently in the community. Wisconsin APSE is very excited to be a driving force in its employment activities.

PM Trudeau says cannabis will be legal in Canada on Oct. 17
Rachel Aiello Ottawa News Bureau Online Producer
@rachaiello Contact
Published Wednesday, June 20, 2018 9:59AM EDT Last Updated Wednesday, June 20, 2018 6:34PM EDT
OTTAWA -- Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says recreational marijuana will become legal in Canada on Oct. 17.
Trudeau made the proclamation during question period Wednesday, saying the provinces wanted more time to implement the new regime than originally anticipated.
"We heard from provinces and territories who told us they needed more time to transition to this new framework, so our government will continue to work in full partnership with them, to ensure the smooth and orderly implementation of this new law across Canada," Trudeau told reporters during an end-of-session news conference.
Trudeau said that though legalization will be a process and not "a single-day event," he expects that as of the date the new regime comes into force, all stakeholders will be ready to roll.
This announcement comes after a historic vote in the Senate Tuesday night to pass Bill C-45, the government's legislation to legalize cannabis.
After more than a year of intensive study in both the House and Senate, the bill cleared the final legislative hurdle Tuesday evening, passing by a vote of 52 to 29 with two abstentions.
For a full accounting of how things unfolded ahead of the vote, including a final failed push to insist on allowing provinces to ban home cultivation, click here.
The bill still needs to receive Royal Assent, which is scheduled for Thursday morning.
Oct. 17 will be the day that the major social policy change will come into force.
On CTV's Power Play, Bill Blair, the government's point person on pot, said the date was extended after discussions with the provinces and territories. Blair said because they have been given the ability to set regulations in their jurisdictions as to how a legalized marijuana regime will operate, this extra time will allow for the final set up of retail establishments and get online systems up and running.
"We're very appreciative of the effort everybody's making, but I think Canadians expect us to do this in a responsible way and that's what we're aiming to do," Blair said.
Mark Zekulin, president of Canopy Growth, told CTV's Power Play host Don Martin that while they would have been ready for a July implementation, "we'll take the breathing room."
One of the biggest outlying concerns is public education about what the new law allows for and what it doesn't.
Speaking about Bill C-45 passing, Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould cautioned Canadians that the current prohibition and laws about cannabis will remain in place until the date of implementation, and urged people to follow the law until then.
For a comprehensive rundown of how each province is approaching legalized marijuana, click here.
The legislation -- an electoral promise Trudeau and the Liberal Party --allows adults in Canada to legally possess and use small amounts of recreational cannabis. It sets out parameters around the production, possession, safety standards, distribution, and sale of the drug. It also creates new Criminal Code offences for selling marijuana to minors. The proposed federal law spells out that it will be illegal for anyone younger than 18 to buy pot, but allows for provinces and territories to set a higher minimum age.
As for the rejected Senate amendment to allow provinces to ban growing marijuana at home Wilson-Raybould said the federal government does not intend to challenge the provinces that plan to move ahead with an outright prohibition on pot plants at home, saying it'll be up to individuals to challenge the provincial laws if they want to be able to do as the federal law says, and grow up to four plants.
Senate passes companion drug-driving bill
On Wednesday afternoon Bill C-46, the impaired driving bill that was introduced alongside Bill C-45, also passed.
The Senate agreed to pass the bill as-is and not insist on its amendments.
This legislation proposes changes to the impaired driving laws to give police new powers to conduct roadside intoxication tests, including oral fluid drug tests, and would make it illegal to drive within two hours of being over the legal limit.
The Senate had wanted to remove the provision that allowed police to conduct random roadside alcohol tests, but the House of Commons sent a message to the Upper Chamber saying it would be rejecting that change, despite accepting others.
The government had hoped throughout the process that the two bills would pass in close succession.

Each year, pupils from our school celebrate the Chinese Spring Festival with members of the Confucius Society. For this years celebrations, some children from Year 4 were selected to perform on stage at the Playhouse Theatre in Liverpool City Centre.
In the lead up to the Chinese Spring Festival, the children (including myself) who were performing spent time rehearsing with Amber who is our Mandarin teacher. On the day, we arrived at Liverpool Playhouse Theatre and were welcomed onstage. We had the opportunity to rehearse on with the music (we were singing "Rúguǒ gǎndào xìngfú nǐ jiù pāi pāishǒu" which translates as "If you're happy and you know it clap your hands").
After rehearsing, we took some time to relax and prepare before performing on stage in front of other schools, members of the Confucius Society and members of the public. Furthermore, after we had finished our perfroamcne, we were able to watch other exciting performances (from both schools and members of the Confucius Society) as part of the audience.
I really enjoyed the opportunity to perform on stage at a colossal theatre and I am extremely proud of what I achieved.
I loved performing at the Chinese Spring Festival. It was fun because I enjoy performing outside of school (I participate in dance shows) so this gave me the opportunity to perform for our school as well. Furthermore, I enjoyed performing with my friends and also enjoyed meeting new people at the Liverpool Playhouse Theatre (including the volunteers from the Confucius Society who were our ushers).
While on stage, I was amazed with the bright lights and cameras which were on us and this made me really excited. Also, I was really pleased with the fact that we sang a song which is for everyone ("Rúguǒ gǎndào xìngfú nǐ jiù pāi pāishǒu" or "If you're happy and you know it clap your hands").
It was an amazing day and I loved every minute of it!

This can be used as strictly a high banker or suction high banker, there is a 2" reducer on the spraybar to connect directly to the existing water pump without any other fittings, hoses or hassle. The whole unit has been stored indoors. The sluice and pump, came with other mining equipment I acquired, so I assembled (picked up the new hoses, nozzle, fittings, etc), to complete the unit. As I already have 2 &1/2" & 3" high-banker combo, thought I would offer this up.

Cheats 2
Tom and Jerry are at it again! This time the fat cat's gone and abducted Jerry's cousin, Tuffy, and stuffed him in a trunk in the attic. Jerry's got to get up to the attic and let Tuffy out before he runs out of air -- that's a pretty long trek when you're under three inches tall!
A Mouse In the House
High Tech's done big daddy Hanna Barbera proud. Video game Tom and Jerry are spitting images of their cartoon counterparts, and they've got the animated moves to match their good looks.
It's a long, long way to the top, and Jerry starts as low as you can go. The fiasco begins in the basement. From there Jerry works his way up into the kitchen, inside walls and drainpipes, onto the roof, down the chimney, and, finally, across the living room where he makes his final dash to the attic. Add it all up and you have five three-part levels of cat and mousing.
Position Jerry just in front of the webs and fire at spiders from a distance.
If Jerry must jump off a ledge, don't hold down on the jump button (Button A) too long. If you do, Jerry gets too much ooomph in his jump, and he'll hurt himself when he lands.
This adventure's a bit on the "cheesy" side -- and that's a good thing. Cheese bits are hidden throughout the house, Jerry depends on these delicacies for points (50,000 Cheese Bonus points equals an extra life) and to keep his health meter fit. With only three lives, Jerry can't afford not to be a cheese-miser. If you find yourself tempted to forgo that out of the way piece of cheese, think twice. It could mean the difference between life and mouse-mortem.
Using His Marbles
Things look bad for the stunt-mouse. Ordinary household annoyances and common appliances present extraordinary problems. Jerry needs all of his jumping/climbing prowess, which fortunately happens to be both great and easy to control. He spends much of the time trying to avoid hazards such as spider webs and hot embers. When he's not avoiding dangers, he's tossing an endless supply of marbles at an equally deep gang of mini-brutes, including squirrels, bees, and angry spiders. Secret items are available for limited use in very specific circumstances, but finding 'em is your problem!
Jerry can pick up two pieces of bubble gum in Stage One. Use one to help him reach the top of the boiler and escape the basement. Save the other to reach some out of the way goodies in Stage Two.
Avoid the popping com in the Kitchen by simply malting a beeline, without stopping, straight for the end of the pot and then taking a flying leap right over the Ïaòe. The key is to keep moving.
The Tale of Cat and Mouse
This is one of the few times you'll want a mouse in your house, really. One of the better 8-bit titles out this year, Tom and Jerry offers a decent level of challenge and animation that's worth its weight in cheese. Grab a controller and catch that mouse!

The classic cat and mouse duo is finally coming to the 16-Bit game scene from Hi-Tech Expressions! Take the controls of Jerry, the witty little mouse that seems to outsmart Tom at every encounter.
Tom has kidnapped the extremely cute Nibbles and it's up to Jerry to save him! Since Tom is a crafty cat, Jerry must travel through some very unlikely places to search for Nibbles. Play through stages like a movie projector, theater, and even a stinky old junkyard.
Jerry can attack enemies by repeatedly jumping on them or throwing marbles that he collects along the way. Pick up cheesebits for points and hunks of cheese to replenish your life meter. Relive the cartoon high jinks all over again!
The classic cat and mouse team are up to their old tricks again! Tuffy, the little mouse with a voracious appetite, is lost far from home. Jerry hears his plea for help and sets off in search of the little tyke.
Tom has also heard the cries and is a constant threat to Jerry and Tuffy.
In this action game, you control Jerry on this mission leading through a house. Collect cheese power-ups and throw bouncing balls to get rid of minor menaces.
SNES gamers who have been chasing their tails in search of a classic cartoon adventure can stop scurrying around. Hi-Tech Expressions presents Tom and Jerry in another cat-versus-mouse action game.
Cheese Business
At first glance, this hop-and-bop game appears to be just a cute game for the younger set that's been derived from the NES version. However, if you're patient, you'll find that Tom and Jerry dish out more action than you'd get at a cat fight.
In this tricky, side-view, multi-scrolling adventure game, you can play Jerry or his little pal Tuffy (in alternating two-player mode). Your goal is simple enough: make your way through four levels -- from the downtown premiere of your new flick, "Tom and Jerry the Movie," to the comforts of your mouse hole. Old Tom, however, has mouse-mashing plans, and he's got a gang of bugs, wind-up monster toys, and assorted creatures to help him.
Your perilous journey takes you through a movie theater, a junk yard, a toy store, and your house. You must gather Marbles to throw at Tom's gang, Cheese Bits to rack up points towards extra lives, and Cheese Wedges to restore your life meter.
Jerry needs all the help he can get, because this game is tough. You start out with five lives, which disappear quickly, and there are no continues.
Creatures attack you from the air and from the ground. Watch your step, too! If you fall from too high a spot, you lose an entire life.
In the movie theater, you reach a point in the Projection Boom where it seems as though you can't jump any further. First, pummel the windup monster with marbles. Then continue to jump on the lower film strip's projector until you eventually spring to the upper level of film.
To beat Tom in the third part of Level 1, stand to the left of the screen just before you see his head pop up. Then, throw marbles at his head. Ten good shots and he's a goner.
To reach some ledges, you must make a running start before you leap.
Fine Don't Lose Your Marbles
As in the NES game, Marbles are your defense. You toss them overhead at flying enemies and along the ground at crawling critters. If all else fails, jump on your opponents or avoid them altogether by jumping over them. Because Jerry is easy to control, avoiding dangers is sometimes the easiest way to avoid damage.
Furry Graphics & Sounds
Tom and Jerry's graphics are cartoon cute. The lovable characters are at their TV finest, and the colors are crisp. As for the music, it's unobtrusive and blends in well with the game play.
When traveling through the Movie Theater just before you reach Tom, keep your sled tip up and keep hopping. You'll avoid most enemies that way. You only need to keep at least one life to make it to the next stage.
If time is running out, don't try to grab all the Cheese Bits. Instead, go to the end of the level.
Calling All Cheese Burners
Tom and Jerry is cute, but challenging. At first, the action seems a little mousey, but you'll be hard-pressed to get through this game. You'll take to this game like a feline to catnip, whether you're a die-hard Tom and Jerry fan or you just like to play cat and mouse.
Speaking of cats and mice, Tom and Jerry are about to go Nintendo! Yes, the troublesome twosome causes more manic mayhem than ever before in their very own single player 8-bit adventure titled, what else, Tom and Jerry. In this hyper-action game, Jerry must rescue his buddy, Tuffy, who's locked up in the attic -- guess who put him there?! The search begins down in the basement. From there Jerry must work his way through the kitchen, out the window onto a tree limb, then up onto the roof. And that's only the beginning. Then he must slide down the chimney, scurry through the living room, and, finally, sneak up into the attic. It sounds simple, but it's no mean task when you're just few a inches tall, and you've got a cat and countless other creatures, including Flies, Bats, and Squirrels, hot on your tail! Can Jerry outwit Tom and save his pal or will he get nipped by a cat?
The comic violence of Tom and Jerry has been woefully toned down throughout the years. The original cartoons, made as theatrical shorts, moved. They were action-packed and true works of animation. Times have changed, thanks to parental watchdogs. Just look at the latest incarnations of the cartoon duo on syndicated television markets--the two rarely go at one another's throats! To see the "real" Tom and Jerry in action, watching the original shorts is mandatory.
Classic Tom and Jerry isn't what you'll find in the SNES's Tom & Jerry because, like the modern-day cartoon, it severely lacks the action worthy of the cat and mouse's origins. The Tom and Jerry trademark aside, the game play itself is mediocre. It's a real disappointment, especially when that recent SNES title based on another famous 'toon pair. Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner, Death Valley Rally, is brought in for comparison.
Tom & Jerry boasts 11 stages, which sounds impressive, but each one is short in length. Actually, the game is divided into just four levels, each consisting of a few of these stages. Jerry is the star here, with Tom taking on cameos at the end of every level as the "end boss." Jerry's baby nephew, Tuffy, costars as the second player, but two cannot play simultaneously. It's simply time-sharing between Jerry and Tuffy, as two gamers alternate after the other's turn.
The plot concerns Jerry, who needs to travel home from the movie theater. He runs and jumps onto various types of platforms; he throws marbles at enemies; he picks up bits of cheese for points, whole slices for extra life energy; he completes the stage by coming to the exit sign at the end. After going through two or three stages, it's time to pound poor Tom silly.
Level 1 is set in the movie theater; Level 2 at a junkyard; Level 3 in a toy shop; and Level 4, back at home. These settings invite action-filled possibilities, but only the boss screens with Tom present situations that are derived from the classic cartoon shorts. In the theater, Tom's head looms in the background as he drops sandbags onto Jerry. The cat tries to do in his mouse adversary with a crane and magnet in the junkyard, and sends out toy robots in the toy store level. The final screen has Jerry sending Tom off to the moon by slipping a firecracker into his paw.
With the exception of Tom, Jerry and Tuffy, the graphics are simplistic. The three look like animated characters who happen to be trapped in a boringlooking video game. The music mangles the "Tom & Jerry" theme into unrecognizability--painful to hear, especially since it comes out in stereo.
Regarding play value, Tom & Jerry is on the easy side. Apparently the game was designed with young children in mind, but there are better-designed SNES titles of this gaming difficulty, featuring more for the player to do--Magical Quest, for one. The comic conflicts between Tom and Jerry should be the essence of this game, but, except for the four boss screens, they are, sadly, missing.

Temperature and Dew Point
There is only a single weather station, Minya, in our network suitable to be used as a proxy for the historical temperature and dew point records of Sumusţā as Sulţānī.
At a distance of 94 kilometers from Sumusţā as Sulţānī, closer than our threshold of 150 kilometers, this station is deemed sufficiently nearby to be relied upon as our primary source for temperature and dew point records.
The station records are corrected for the elevation difference between the station and Sumusţā as Sulţānī according to the International Standard Atmosphere , and by the relative change present in the MERRA-2 satellite-era reanalysis between the two locations.
Please note that the station records themselves may additionally have been back-filled using other nearby stations or the MERRA-2 reanalysis.
All data relating to the Sun's position (e.g., sunrise and sunset) are computed using astronomical formulas from the book, Astronomical Tables of the Sun, Moon and Planets , by Jean Meeus.
All other weather data, including cloud cover, precipitation, wind speed and direction, and solar flux, come from NASA's MERRA-2 Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis . This reanalysis combines a variety of wide-area measurements in a state-of-the-art global meteorological model to reconstruct the hourly history of weather throughout the world on a 50-kilometer grid.
Land Use data comes from the Global Land Cover SHARE database , published by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
Elevation data comes from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) , published by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

We draw particular cautious attention to our reliance on the MERRA-2 model-based reconstructions for a number of important data series. While having the tremendous advantages of temporal and spatial completeness, these reconstructions: (1) are based on computer models that may have model-based errors, (2) are coarsely sampled on a 50 km grid and are therefore unable to reconstruct the local variations of many microclimates, and (3) have particular difficulty with the weather in some coastal areas, especially small islands.
We further caution that our travel scores are only as good as the data that underpin them, that weather conditions at any given location and time are unpredictable and variable, and that the definition of the scores reflects a particular set of preferences that may not agree with those of any particular reader.

Snow Warns: Higher Private-Equity Taxes Would Erode Retirement Funds
Scott Reeves
Published 3:50 PM ET Wed, 11 July 2007 Updated 3:07 PM ET Thu, 5 Aug 2010 CNBC.com
John Snow, chairman of Cerberus Capital Management and former U.S. Treasury secretary, told CNBC's "Street Signs" that raising taxes on private equity would harm the nation's economy and erode retirement benefits for many working people.
"It seems to me that it's Economics 101 that if you put a higher tax on something, you're going to get less of it," Snow said Wednesday.
John Snow on PE 2:23 PM ET Wed, 11 July 2007
"We always tax things we want to discourage. Why anyone would want to discourage capital formation and the important work that private equity does in revitalizing underperforming companies, and thereby making the American economy more efficient -- it doesn't seem to me that's good policy."
The Senate Tax Committee held its first hearing Wednesday on taxing "carried interest," or the profit earned by private equity and hedge fund managers. The money is typically taxed at the 15% capital-gains rate, because the law now views such profit as investment income rather than earned wages. A bill in the House would declare such profit ordinary income, and tax it at rates as high as 35%. The Senate may offer a similar measure.
In making tax policy, Snow said Congress should continue to draw a distinction between earned income and return on capital.
"[There is a] clear distinction between ordinary income and return of capital," Snow said. "The capital is at risk, and there is no return to the private-equity firm, unless the investors are rewarded."
He said boosting taxes on private equity would mean less activity by private-equity funds, in turn hurting the people whose retirement funds have invested in private-equity firms.
"You always get less of anything you tax," Snow said. "That's a fundamental principle. Private equity is providing a means for school teachers, state employees, firemen and policemen -- that broad cut of Americans -- to get better retirement than they would otherwise have. If you tax it, then you're going to be adversely affecting the ability of average Americans to have better retirements."

Simple but tasty winter food.
This is an English dish.
This worked well for us with jacket potatoes, peas and sweetcorn.
Make the sauce. Wash the meat and lay on a lightly oiled shallow casserole dish.
If cooking with jacket potatoes, prepare the potatoes in the ususal way and cook these in the top of the oven. At the same time, cook the steaks in the middle of the oven.
If not cooking with jacket potatoes, then cook at the top of the oven at gas mark 4 (180 °C; 350 °F) for 1 hour approx.
Check the meat for tenderness before serving.


Continuing the Women's History Month winemaker series, I speak with Marina Marcarino of Punset in Barbaresco, Italy. She is one of Italy's most respected and influential female winemakers. In the late 1980's, she ignored the norm and converted her family's estate into a 100% certified organic vineyard. She is a kind, smart, savvy woman in wine and I learned so much from her about Barbaresco and organic farming -- you will too!
We discuss Marina's childhood in Piemonte, the town of Alba and what it's really known for (hint: NUTELLA!) and why being a "bad baby" led her on a path to making organic wine.
It's Women's History Month so we spend some time discussing her experiences as a woman in the wine industry and what it's like to raise a child and be a winemaker.
We learn all about Barbaresco -- the difference with Barolo, the unique geographic features -- the Tanaro River, the consistent breezes, the differences between the diverse winemaking areas, and why the wines are so consistently good.
We pivot to discuss farming and Marina's passion for organics. We discuss her philosophies, why she must do organic farming (or else no farming at all!) and why, despite being called "The Crazy", she has persevered and now has others following her lead.
We tackle the importance of certification in organics and the difference between certifying a practice (organic) and a philosophy (biodynamic).
Finally we discuss winemaking and Marina's goals to make her beautiful, wonderful wine. Marina gives advice to future female winemakers and we agree to meet in Italy someday soon (I love this lady!)!
