Bartlett Pear Inn
We stayed in Easton during my birthday weekend, our first trip to this part of the Eastern Shore. I let the restaurant know on the opentable reservation that this was my birthday dinner. When we walked in, the hostess sat us in this little private alcove by the window. Sitting on the table was a "Happy Birthday" envelope and inside was a note signed by every member of the staff! Even the chef! This gesture was only a sign of things to come.
The restaurant is in a historic house and it is very cozy. It really feels like you were invited to a dinner party at someone's home. The place reminded us of the Kitchen at Rock Hall, a little further up the Eastern Shore, which unfortunately is no longer in existence.
The first thing that I noticed about our server was a jarring lack of polish. I thought about it for a while, and then I remember that this place is on the rural Eastern Shore. There is not exactly a large pool of experienced servers who have worked in a fine dining atmosphere.
We started with a half bottle of Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire Valley. A good wine will complement an occasion, and this wine only made the night better. Before we ordered, we were served a house made baguette from the Inn baker, along with butter molded in the shape of a pear and sprinkled with coarse black pepper and salt.
We could not decide on our entrees, so we put in an order for the Duo of Tuna Tartare. Half of the dish was slices of raw tuna crusted in what tasted like Old Bay and then sprinkled with coarse salt. The Old-Bay-like crust was different, but I liked the familiar taste of the spice blend. The coarse salt could have been applied more evenly, however. I got a few bites with no salt.
The other half of the dish was a more traditional tartare, with small chunks of raw tuna in what tasted like a sesame oil marinade. Rounding out the dish were roasted beets in a very light cream sauce, raw almonds and a black and white sesame seed cracker.
All of the dishes at the restaurant are served in the modernist-style, with very small portions and beautiful arrangements. For Marnay's entrée, she got Rhode Island Sea Scallops with beluga lentils, swiss chard and bacon lardons. The bacon made everything SO deliciously smoky and the large scallops were perfectly seared.
I got the seared duck breast with pickled walnuts, baby greens, pomegranate-quinoa and a cherry dark-chocolate jus. We shared our entrees, each eating about half and were happy with how they came out.
Afterwards, we decided that we had room for dessert. Marnay got a scoop of house made vanilla ice cream, while I opted for a pear liquor. Much to our surprise, the server came out with a chocolate soufflé and crème anglaise! Dessert was incredible and was our favorite part of the meal. The chocolate soufflé with crème anglaise poured in the center may have been my favorite dessert EVER. And the vanilla ice cream had such an intense yet balanced vanilla flavor that I am still thinking about it. Who would have thought, memorable vanilla ice cream!
I want to reserve the last part of this post to talk about how genuinely warm every member of the staff was at the Bartlett Pear Inn. This was a birthday meal that I will not soon forget, and I would go back in a heartbeat next year!

Menomale
November 7, 2015 February 22, 2017 Leave a comment
On an unseasonably warm Friday night, we dined at Menomale in Brookland. We sat on the restaurant's sidewalk patio, which can be enclosed but was open on this mild night.
When we first got to the restaurant, we noticed that Ettore, the owner, was there. We watched him the whole time through the window while we sat on the patio. He was so focused, so methodical–we could tell that we were in good hands. Menomale, like Pizzeria Orso, has a VPN certification. For what it's worth, Menomale got their's about 2 years before Pizzeria Orso. It takes a strong determination to keep up with all the requirements that come along with making DOC pizzas.
On this warm night, I started the meal out with a Sonoma Anvil Bourbon Cider. The bourbon flavor was interesting, but I found the drink too sweet for my liking. Marnay had a Goose Island Sofie, a saison. Marnay liked it, but wished that it had a little stronger flavor. Neither of us had the Sofie before, and it was a little mild for a Saison.
We were hungry (!), so we started the meal with Prosciutto di Parma e Melone. The prosciutto did not appear to be made in-house, but that did not mean it wasn't delicious. The salty, nutty meat went perfectly with the slightly cold, sweet cantaloupe. Prosciutto di Parma gets its nutty flavor from the Parmigiano Reggiano whey that is in the pigs' diets. The dish was served with arugula, grapes and strawberries.
You can't go to Meomale and not get pizza, so we shared the d'Ettore, or chef's special. The pizza has fior di latte (cows' milk mozzarella), cherry tomatoes, arugula, prosciutto di Parma, grana Padano and extra-virgin olive oil. Even though the pizza has a lot going on, it still tasted like one pizza. I can't say that there was one topping that overpowered the rest. I think that part of this can be attributed to the soft crust on a Neapolitan pizza. New York style pizzas, for example, have lots crust and cheese and are filled with grease whereas Neapolitan pizzas taste cleaner and prevent the toppings from getting lost. Neapolitan pizzas are also healthier than traditional New York pizzas, for the same reasons.
While we were finishing our meal on the patio, it started to pour! Luckily, some employees came and rolled down the windows before we started to get wet. While the rain was unexpected (we didn't even bother to bring umbrellas), it did not put a damper on our experience. Menomale is a great Neapolitan pizzeria and a very good restaurant overall.
Menomale: 2711 12th St NE, Washington, DC 20018

If you grow your yucca plants indoors but want to take them out in the summer, slowly get them used to outdoor life by hardening them outdoors for several hours each day. The gradual introduction of plants into outdoor life can reduce the risk of leaf burn or systemic shock. Yucca species that are not so cold should return inward when the weather cools. Again, slowly harden the plants so that they gradually get used to indoor life. Your yucca plants may begin to produce small branches called "puppies." These can be cut from the mother plant and potted as new small plants. When repotting the yucca plant, you do not need to hurry, because these plants work best when the roots in the pot are a little crowded. Many growers prefer not to repot the plant until there are clear signs that the plant needs it. For pruning, carefully remove the plant from the pot and cut the trunk in half with a sharp saw or pruning shears (long-stemmed pruning shears). Repot the root end of the stem and water it well, continue to care for the plant as you traditionally would. In a few weeks, the plant should begin to produce new leaves, which eventually look like before, but shorter.
You can also plant the upper part of the yucca to try to propagate a second plant. Yucca plants thrive indoors under bright, indirect light. Growing yucca in too little light can lead to thinner, slower growth, while intense, direct sunlight can cause white spots on the leaves or crispy brown tips. Are you looking for a lush and majestic houseplant that is not afraid to forget it for a few weeks? The yucca plant (Yucca gigantea) or Adam`s needle is for you. In addition to adding a chic desert atmosphere to any room, this hardy plant requires only a few steps of care to thrive. Yucca plants are adapted to the desert, where temperatures can exceed 90 degrees Fahrenheit during the day and 30 degrees Fahrenheit at night. Therefore, yuccas are relatively adaptable to most indoor temperature conditions and fluctuations. They grow best in moderate humidity, but as desert plants, they are perfectly satisfied in dry conditions, and there is never a need to spray this plant. While yucca plants don`t have many pest problems, there are a few typical culprits you should look out for, such as aphids and small mealybugs. Many yucca plants also fight with agave bugs, which pierce the leaves and suck the juice. If you notice tiny brown scars on the leaves of your plant, chances are you have a problem with agave plants.
For treatment, spray the plant with several applications of insecticidal soap until all signs of infestation have ceased. On average, most yucca plants tend to live between 5 and 7 years. However, they can live much longer. The better you care for your yucca plant, the longer it will live. Water the yucca plant one day before repotting. Also, make sure that the new pot is no more than a few centimeters larger than the previous pot and that it has a drainage hole. Yucca plants can thrive in relatively infertile conditions, but if you want to give your plants an extra boost during the growing season, add food. Yucca plants do not need very fertile soil to thrive, normal soil will do them good.
The main quality that compost must have is that it drains well. Because it is a drought-tolerant plant, it will not grow well if it stays too long in moist soil. Ground squirrels love yuccas and eat the roots. But yuccas grow back when protected by a chain-link basket Typically, yuccas live indoors for up to seven years, but an outdoor plant can survive for many more years. Yucca plants are excellent starter plants, especially when grown indoors. It is important to ensure that their soil is well drained and free of diseases so that they can thrive and grow. Please read on to learn more about soil requirements for yucca plants and more information on how to care for them. We recommend choosing a compost like John Innes potting soil and mixing it with 1 part of sand and a few extra pebbles to improve drainage a little more.
Yuccas thrive in full unfiltered sun. Place yucca plants in a place that gets sun most of the day, or if your plant is potted indoors, place them near a window that receives a decent amount of sunlight. Question: My yucca plants only bloom every few years. What for? The growing demands on yuccas are similar to those of cacti and palm trees. Proper sunlight and watering ensure that yuccas grow strongly for years. The type of soil and fertilizer should also be taken into account when caring for yuccas. Common name: Yucca cane plant, stingless yucca Scientific name: Yucca elephantipes (or Y. guatemalensis) Soil: coarse, well-drained soil Light: medium to bright Water: medium Food: fertilizer shifted in time, twice a year Temperature and humidity: 50 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit, moderate humidity Propagation: stem cuttings Safety: moderately toxic, moderately allergenic Should I cut small plants that grow on tree trunks? Yuccas are slow-growing plants and may only need fertilizer a few times a year. A balanced, low-nitrogen fertilizer is ideal. Fertilizers should contain essential secondary nutrients such as calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg) and sulfur (S), as well as trace elements such as iron (Fe), manganese (Mn) and zinc (Zn). Cactus fertilizer can be used because of its low and balanced concentrations of nutrients. Granular or water-soluble fertilizers can also be used.
Granular fertilizers release nutrients slowly over time, while water-soluble applications immediately add nutrients to the soil. In desert areas (such as the southeastern United States), yuccas are common outdoor plants where they reach their maximum size. Indoors, however, people tend to stick to two types: For example, if you notice that the roots are growing out of topsoil, it`s probably time for the plant to be placed in a larger container. If the factory starts tipping over because it`s too heavy for the current container, you`ll need to switch to a container a few inches larger to accommodate it. Yucca plants are used in dry, desert conditions and can be very susceptible to overwatering. They can go without water for long periods of time, which is great news for those of us who forget to water our plants. Indoors, yucca seedlings sometimes need to be pruned if they get too big for your space. However, this is a bit unconventional, especially if you are used to pruning traditional landscape plants.
Reduce in early spring. Yucca houseplants are very nutrient-efficient. They need to be fed only twice a year, in spring and again in mid-summer, with balanced fertilizer. You can also use pruning cuttings to propagate your yucca plant. More on this below. Answer: You can kill yuccas after the flower stem has finished blooming. Simply cut the flower stem slightly above the base of the yucca. Yucca plants need very little in terms of size, just bypass any general maintenance by removing damaged or dead stems, sticks and spears to keep the plant healthy. Answer: Leave the yucca as is for now and see if it recovers in a few weeks.
Yucca is a very hardy plant, but check for signs of rot, overwatering, visible physical damage to the trunk or center, and pests. Yucca thrives in soil mixtures that drain well. A good mix should include potting soil, coarse sand and rocks. The spread of your yucca plant can be done in two ways: by division or by puppies. Propagation is best done in autumn. To multiply by division, separate the rhizomes under the ground and plant your new yucca plant in suitable soil and place it in a sunny place. Keep the plant slightly moist until the roots form. The leaves of yucca begin to shrink and bend if not watered for too long. Water the yucca immediately when it begins to wilt, otherwise the wilting will continue and the yucca will die.
Underwatered yuccas will cheer up shortly after watering. Yuccas also produce puppies or shifts. Wait until the puppies are green, indicating that they are mature enough to survive on their own. Carefully cut the puppy from the main plant and plant it in its own pot. You can use root powder, but it is not necessary. The suction cups that grow on the stems can also be cut and used for propagation. Read more about separating and repotting yucca puppies here. Yucca plants attract attention and require little maintenance – a perfect combination for ideal houseplants. We are talking about years of light greenery: slow-growing, drought-tolerant, pest-resistant.
And because they`re incredibly easy to spread, you can share the love with your friends. Yucca (Yucca glauca) grows as single shrubs up to four feet tall with thin, thorny leaves. Although it resembles hydrotyle, beargrass yucca (Yucca filamentosa) grows more akin to Adam`s needle and is two of the few varieties in this family that have adapted to extremely cold temperatures. Yucca factories are stylish, versatile and low maintenance.
Note that in Washington, if the testator`s marriage or civil partnership is dissolved, invalid, or terminated after the execution of the will, certain provisions are repealed in favor of the former spouse or partner. WILL A legal declaration that designates one or more persons to administer one`s estate and provides for the transfer of property in the event of death, historically, only of one`s own property. Contrast: TESTAMENT. Learn about the specific laws that affect wills in Washington, how to get a final will, how to amend a will, what you can leave to your heirs through a will, and more. Note that these are only the absolute minimum requirements that a document must meet before a court accepts it to be a will and agrees to execute it. Making a proper will requires much more than simply meeting these minimum requirements. In Washington State, any sane person eighteen years of age or older can make a will.1 In the past, it was very expensive to have a will drawn up. Even today, the average cost of a will written by a lawyer in the United States is about $1,400. We believe wills should be affordable for all Washingtonians.
Our simple will template is free, as is our online library of instructions for making a simple will in Washington State. Using a template to write a will works well for some people, but there are some things you should consider when deciding if it`s the right choice for you. A foreign will (a will made outside Washington State) may be valid if it meets these minimum requirements or if it has been executed "in the manner prescribed by the law of the place of execution or domicile of the testator, either at the time of execution of the will or at the time of the testator`s death." 4 In writing: The requirement "written" means what it says: written, whether typed, handwritten or printed. Unlike other jurisdictions, Washington does not require a will to be typed or printed; The mere fact that it is handwritten, even by another, does not invalidate it as long as it is "written" and "signed by the testator". Creating a do-it-yourself will can be easy and inexpensive, but not choosing the right service could also mean headaches for your loved ones once you`re gone.

A Washington will can be changed at any time by codicil or amendment of the will, which must be executed in the same way as a will.
This writing, although it could be called a valid holographic will in California, was intended as an example, not as the actual will of the professor; so no will. In addition to being able to control the distribution of wealth, a Washington will also allow the testator to make a charitable donation, create a trust for a person, appoint a legal guardian for minor children, or establish a "pet trust" to care for an animal after its owner dies. A will is an important step in planning the distribution of your assets (real estate and personal) after your death. Washington wills allow the testator to provide the person making the will with a spouse, partner, children, other relatives, and pets after death, as well as appoint a personal representative for the estate. A will can be handwritten (known as a holograph will) as long as it meets the above requirements. Oral wills, also known as "nuncupative wills," are not valid in Washington, except in very special circumstances for military personnel in the armed forces or merchant marine.3 Washington`s wills do not allow holographic (handwritten) wills and restrict nuncupative (oral) wills, limit personal property to $1,000, and prohibit property designations. In addition to the various legal requirements for writing a valid will in Washington described above, there are a number of obscure common law requirements that are often overlooked when determining the validity of a script as a will. Some of them are as follows: The following table lists the most important provisions of the testamentary laws of Washington. For more articles and resources, see the Wills section of FindLaw.

The peer education program works with youth, especially young women of color, developing their knowledge and leadership on issues of gender-based violence and discrimination, empowering them to bring that knowledge back to their communities to teach others. Legal Momentum leads advocacy efforts for a range of policy solutions to address and eliminate gender discrimination and achieve gender equality. The NOW Legal Defense and Education Fund was instrumental in drafting and enacting VAWA and its landmark civil rights appeal in 1994 and co-counsel to plaintiff Christy Brzonkala in U.S. v. Morrison. Senior counsel Julie Goldscheid argued the case before the Supreme Court.
This article from In Brief, the NOW LDEF newsletter, offers a feminist perspective on judgment. [15] Beginning in 1991, Legal Momentum worked closely with then-Senator Biden to draft and pass the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), which focused on domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, and harassment. Since 1994, VAWA has provided billions of dollars for victim services, education for justice professionals, and prevention programs to end gender-based violence. Victims of sexual assault on campus, in addition to devastating violations of their physical integrity and physical safety, too often face disruptions to their studies and careers, which can result in permanent damage to employment prospects, financial security and lifetime income. Legal Momentum pursues precedents to define and defend women`s rights. It brings cases of national importance in the area of women`s rights and provides amicus curiae ("friend of the court") briefs in cases dealing with core issues of its mission in four main categories: fairness in court, violence against women and girls, equality in the workplace and economic empowerment. and equal educational opportunities. Notable cases include United Steelworkers v. Weber, Amicus in Grove City College v. Bell, NOW v. Terry, Robinson v.
Jacksonville Shipyards, Inc., Saenz v. Roe, Faragher v. Boca Raton, Wedow and Kline v. City of Kansas City and Florida Abolitionist and Jane Doe v. Backpage.com et al. Legal Momentum has expertise and resources in various areas related to discrimination, gender equality and gender bias. From sexual and reproductive rights to adolescent violence and gender bias in court, Legal Momentum continues to advocate for the rights of women and girls, working to eliminate stereotypes and harmful policies that are shaped by prejudice, while promoting policies and practices that reflect women`s realities. and promote their rights before the law. In the early 1970s, NOW LDEF raised funds to distribute to feminist research or policy projects seeking support.
The organization soon began to establish and manage its own projects, the most important of which were the Project for Equal Rights to Education (PEER, 1974-1992) and the National Judicial Training Project (NJEP, 1980-ongoing). Legal Momentum, founded in 1970, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and the first and oldest women`s legal advocacy group in the United States. Betty Friedan and Muriel Fox co-founded and Muriel Fox is an ongoing leader of the organization. [2] Carol Baldwin Moody became President and Chief Executive Officer in April 2018. The organization, founded as the NOW Legal Defense and Education Fund,[3] became Legal Momentum in 2004. Legal Momentum is a cross-cutting organization[4] dedicated to promoting women`s rights and gender equality, particularly in the areas of equal opportunities in education. fairness in court; end all forms of gender-based violence; Equality in the workplace and economic empowerment. The organization employs three main strategies: impact litigation, policy advocacy, and educational initiatives. It is headquartered in New York City. [5] [6] [7] In a landmark loss for women last May, the Supreme Court ruled that the civil rights remedy of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) of 1994, which allowed victims of gender-based violence to sue their abusers, was an unconstitutional exercise of congressional powers to regulate interstate commerce and enforce the 14th Amendment. Today, Legal Momentum honors the life of Madeleine Albright, our first globally recognized female Secretary of State and human rights activist.
As a child of refugees, Madeleine Albright has dedicated her life to fighting for freedom around the world and has travelled the world throughout her career promoting peace, reconciliation and mutual respect in the international community. She is an icon for women around the world and a reminder of what is possible when we enable women and girls to reach their full potential. We thank Ms. Albright for her activism and commitment to improving humanity and are proud to continue the fight for equality, security and justice throughout Legal Momentum`s work. The Syms Legal Momentum Gender Equality Legal Helpline is a free national resource that provides information, support and referrals to anyone facing gender discrimination. Each year, Legal Momentum makes hundreds of requests that guide people to the appropriate resources and next steps for their individual situation, providing legal representation in a small number of potentially serious cases. NOW LDEF was governed by a small board of directors, and its "members" consisted of that board as well as all members of the board of directors of NOW. The first meeting of the Board of Directors was held on July 14, 1970.
The first national office was established in New York in 1973. NOW, LDEF has hired a small administrative staff and added a general manager in 1974. The actual legal work was initially done on a pro bono basis by board members or other cooperating lawyers. Most early legal work involved filing amicus curiae briefs or distributing funds to lawsuits already underway (many of which were initiated by NOW or NOW chapters). The first case work focused on workplace discrimination, school discrimination and family law. In 1977, NOW LDEF raised funds to hire a general counsel and began paying litigation staff. While the organization received hundreds of letters from women seeking legal assistance, the legal department tried to focus on precedents that would affect large numbers of women. Lawyers have also created legal guides on women`s issues and drafted model laws on issues such as police custody and domestic violence. Founded in 1980, the National Judicial Education Program (NECN) creates, presents and publishes a range of programs and articles based on legal, social and neuroscience research to educate the judiciary about gender bias and how it can undermine fairness in our justice system. NJEP programs include Understanding Sexual Violence: the Judicial Response to Stranger and Nonstranger Rape and Sexual Assault and a weaving course, Intimate Partner Sexual Abuse: Adjudicating the Hidden Dimension of Domestic Violence Cases, available free of charge from www.njep-ipsacourse.org. The Legal Defense Fund is the leading American legal organization fighting for racial justice.
Women are exposed to violence at home, on the streets and at work. Despite one of Legal Momentum`s key achievements – the adoption of the Violence Against Women Act – support services, rights and protections for victims remain insufficient. In September 1994, 18-year-old Christy Brzonkala was a freshman at Virginia Polytechnic University. She claimed she was raped by two college football players in her dormitory and brought her allegation that the defendants violated VAWA`s civil rights appeal in federal court. The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals dismissed the complaint and sided with the defendants, represented by the Conservative Center for Individual Rights. Women continue to face barriers at school and work that can prevent them from achieving economic security and independence. From kindergarten to higher education, girls face discrimination in education – they are excluded from STEM programs, have fewer opportunities in athletics, and face unacceptable levels of sexual harassment and violence. Legal Momentum is the oldest legal advocacy group in the country dedicated to promoting the rights of women and girls. For 45 years, Legal Momentum has made historic and lasting contributions to women`s rights and opportunities through advocacy, litigation and education initiatives. "As a lawyer who had argued the constitutionality of VAWA`s civil rights appeal in lower courts across the country, I was thrilled to have the opportunity and excited to take on the challenge." "The Rehnquist Court`s decision in U.S.
v. Morrison is a setback for women`s rights and a triumph for those seeking to overturn 30 years of federal citizenship law under the guise of state rights. The court slammed the door of the courthouse, wished the women good luck, and sent us back to the United States for justice," said Kathy Rodgers, president of the NOW Legal Defense and Education Fund.
California has regulations for chips and cracks in the windshield and rear window. All vehicles, with the exception of motorcycles, must be equipped with functional windshield wipers controlled by the driver that can remove rain, snow and other moisture. If your windshield needs to be inspected or your windshield wipers aren`t working properly, a certified technician, like the one at YourMechanic, can help you get back on the road quickly and safely so you can drive within the law. Vision problems aren`t the only reason you should repair or replace your broken or damaged windshield. An intact windshield is stronger and can prevent further injury in the event of an accident. Depending on the extent of the damage to your car`s windshield, you may be able to repair or replace it completely. Ideally, a subpoena is issued for windshield obstruction instead of a more serious traffic violation that would have caused points and increased insurance costs, such as speeding or running a red light. However, unlike other states, it can be issued without any other cause or suspicion. [9] New Hampshire prohibits driving a vehicle "with a sign, sign, sticker or other transparent material on or adjacent to the windshield. that must obstruct the driver`s unobstructed view of the road or intersecting paths. ».
[5] (12) A portable global positioning system (GPS) that may be mounted in a seven-inch square in the lower corner of the windshield furthest from the driver, or in a five-inch square in the lower corner of the windshield closest to the driver and outside an airbag deployment area when the system is used solely for door-to-door navigation during the operation of the motor vehicle. Drivers cannot drive on California roads with a windshield or rear window with defects that impair the driver`s vision. These deficiencies are not standardized, so it is at the discretion of the ticketing agent to determine if cracks or chips are obstructing the driver`s view. If a windscreen or rear window does not meet this requirement, the inspecting officer shall instruct the driver to bring the windscreen and rear window into compliance with the requirements of this Code within 48 hours. The officer may also stop the driver and ask the driver to appear and ask the driver or owner of the vehicle to present satisfactory evidence to the court that the windshield or rear window complies with the requirements of this Code. The requirements for windshields in California are as follows: (3) This subdivision applies to a person who operates a motor vehicle with an unobstructed view of the driver through the windshield or the side or rear windows obstructed by snow or ice. California prohibits placing anything on the windshield or side mirrors of a car that obstructs the driver`s view, with a few exceptions. These exceptions include toll payment devices, anti-glare screens (for people with approved medical instructions), and small barriers such as stickers in the lower corners.
[2] The driver may hang objects from the rear-view mirrors as long as the object does not obstruct the driver`s unobstructed view of the road. (c) Notwithstanding paragraph (a), transparent material may be attached, affixed or affixed to the upper part of the windshield if, While the law doesn`t specify what constitutes a "vision of the impaired driver," driving a car with a cracked windshield is almost guaranteed to get you a stop ticket. (13) (A) a video event recorder capable of monitoring the driver`s performance to improve safety, which may be mounted in a seven-inch square in the lower corner of the windshield furthest from the driver, in a five-inch square in the lower corner of the windshield closest to the driver and outside an airbag deployment area; or in a five-inch square mounted in the upper central part of the interior of the windshield. In this section, "video event recorder" means a video recorder that continuously records in a digital loop and records audio, video and G-force levels, but stores video only when triggered by unusual motion or accident, or when used by the driver to monitor driver performance.
So far, no one has posted a response that echoes Kit Z. Fox and StoneyB`s suggestion in the comments under the poster`s question that the connection between the name Stella and the word wifebeater could include the film version of Tennessee Williams` A Streetcar Named Desire (1951). For much of the film, Marlon Brando`s character, Stanley Kowalski, wears various T-shirts and underwear — including female beaters, at various stages of impurity and old age. "Wifebeater." Merriam-Webster.com Dictionary, Merriam-Webster, www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/wifebeater. Retrieved 6 November 2022. Barbara Kipfer & Robert Chapman, Dictionary of American Slang, Fourth Edition (2007) offers the following definition of wife-beater: Subscribe to America`s largest dictionary and get thousands of other definitions and an advanced search – ad-free! Millions and millions of people know the film – or at least the "Stella! Stella! ", and someone who knew Wifebeater as slang for the undershirt Stanley sometimes wore in the film could have associated Stella DuBois with Stella Artois and Wifebeater with Stella DuBois. Considering how muted and potentially offensive the use of the word wifebeater can seem in a joking sense, the two familiar meanings of the word have surprisingly surfaced recently – long after the supposed era of political correctness began. On the other hand, if wifebeater as a shirt is attested at the earliest in 1994 and if wifebeater as a drink is attested by 1996 at the latest, this gives very little time to the term for jumping from the US to Britain in the sense of shirt and then transformed into a meaning of drinking before dying out (in the UK) in the sense of shirt. Overall, the most likely scenario is that the American and UK meanings of the term come independently, with no influence from A Streetcar Named Desire on usage in the UK. The first Google Books matches for Wifebeater im Shirtsinn date back to 2000 and 2001 – much later than the first example of a newspaper cited in Dalzell & Partridge (above): I first heard "wifebeater" as a colloquial term for a simple white cotton undershirt without sleeves (a garment I use as an undershirt or, if it was thick enough, a tank top) about eight years ago. when my son returned to California after his first semester of college in Kentucky. Apparently, wifebeater was the standard term for clothing among Lexington students. I was a little baffled when I discovered that the word wifebeater can mean something other than "a man beating his wife." Its definition is as follows: Increased awareness and reporting of domestic violence has led to a widespread legal response since the 1980s.
Once seen as a problem that could be better solved without legal intervention, domestic violence is now treated as a criminal offence. Many states and municipalities have taken steps to crack down quickly and severely on domestic offenders. In addition, governments have sought to protect victims of domestic violence from further dangers and have launched programs to address the root causes of domestic violence. One example is Alexandria, Virginia, which began prosecuting repeat offenders in 1994 under a Virginia law (see § 18.2–57.2 Code 1950, § 18.2–57.2), which makes the third conviction for assault a felony punishable by up to five years in prison. In addition, the city has established a shelter for abused women, a victim task force and a domestic violence intervention program, which includes a mandatory arrest policy and court-ordered counselling. As a result, domestic homicides in Alexandria increased from 40 per cent of all homicides in 1987 to 16 per cent of homicides between 1988 and 1994. Other States have taken similar measures. States that already had specific laws on domestic violence toughened penalties in the 1990s.
For example, an amendment to California`s 1995 Abuse Act (West`s Ann. Cal. Penal Code, §§ 14140-14143) repealed a provision that allowed first-time offenders to have their criminal records expunged if they attended counsel. But do we need to be so unaware of the meaning of what we are saying? Why not call the shirt "Brando" or "Wolverine" instead? It`s time to send "Wife Beater" into retirement. Donald Tricarico, a sociology professor at Queensborough Community College, told me the terms date back to a time when some Italians didn`t really think they were white. They saw the sleeveless undershirt as working-class clothing, and someone—or a whole bunch of people—gave it this racialized label to "alienate" Italian immigrants, who were often poor and did physical labor. In fact, in 2018, it is difficult to articulate a rule that reliably separates those who wear the A-shirt from those who do not, beyond a general sense, the t-shirt seems to have been associated with an ambiguous white and a blue collar background. Tom Dalzell & Terry Victor, The New Partridge Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English (2015) has this entry: Studies on the incidence of domestic violence vary widely. Research by Murray A. Straus of the University of New Hampshire and Richard J. Gelles of the University of Rhode Island, both veterans of extensive domestic violence research, found that about four million people experience some form of domestic assault each year, ranging from minor threats and throwing objects to severe beatings.
This number represents women and men who report being attacked by partners. In a 1995 survey by Dr. Jeanne McCauley of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, one in three women who responded to a confidential questionnaire reported being physically or sexually assaulted, and half of these incidents occurred before the age of 18. The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence reported in 1993 that 50 per cent of all married women experience some form of violence by their spouse and that more than one third are repeatedly beaten each year. I had never heard of the term applied to a person until I came across this blog. I needed a drink and stopped for vodka in a dark thirties liquor at the end of a row of shops that had been wandering on the edge of a housing estate.
Victims of rape, incest or sexual abuse are not guilty of sin and are not considered victims of the law of chastity. [16] However, they often feel that they have lost their virtue, which reinforces the feelings of shame and guilt of many rape victims. The Book of Mormon says, "For behold, many daughters of the Lamanites took captives; and [they] deprived them of what was above all dear and precious, that is, chastity and virtue. [17] In a general conference address, President Richard G. Scott said, "The victim must do everything in his or her power to stop the abuse. Most of the time, the victim is innocent because they are embarrassed by the fear or power or authority of the abuser. At some point, however, the Lord may cause a victim to acknowledge some degree of responsibility for the abuse. Your priesthood leader will help you assess your responsibilities so that you can fulfill them if necessary. [18] Activities considered a violation of the law of chastity include adultery and fornication as well as more general behavior. As President of the Church, Kimball taught that the law of chastity "encompasses all sexual relations outside marriage—fondling, sexual perversion, masturbation, and sexual intercourse in thought and speech. Included are all hidden and secret sins and all ungodly and impure thoughts and practices. [15] In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the law of chastity is both an essential doctrine of our heavenly parents` plan for their children and an essential covenant we make in the temple. And yet, elements of our culture, such as casual makeup, high rates of pornography, teaching young women with licked cupcakes, and body shame and modesty, suggest that we struggle to understand why this important law is relevant to us today.
In this article, I`d like to give you a brief overview of why this law is important to you and your relationships (both those related to time and eternity), as well as some tips on how to keep the law of chastity in dating. Do not be misled by Satan`s lies. There is no lasting happiness in immorality. There is no joy in breaking the law of chastity. The exact opposite is true. There may be momentary pleasure. For a while, it may seem like everything is wonderful. But quickly, the relationship will turn sour.
Guilt and shame set in. We are afraid that our sins will be discovered. We have to sneak in and hide, lie and cheat. Love begins to die. Bitterness, jealousy, anger and even hatred begin to grow. These are all the natural consequences of sin and transgression. In his April 2013 general conference address titled "We Believe in Chaste," President David A. Bednar asked, "Why is the law of chastity so important?" His response included several elements: invite some members of your group to read the chastity scriptures (as proposed in this draft); invite the class to read "Sexual Purity" in Strong Youth; and invite others to read "Chastity" in fidelity to faith. Invite them to look for answers to the question, "Why is chastity important to the Lord?" and share what they find. How do the principles of these scriptures and resources differ from what the world teaches about chastity? What has the class learned from these tools that can help them discern falsehood in the worldview? In recent years, Elder Bednar has also spoken about the "why" of keeping the law of chastity. In his June 1998 Education Week talk entitled "Teaching Them to Understand," Elder Bednar spoke of the importance of understanding the "why" of the gospel commandments.
Violation of the law of chastity may result in the creation of a Church advisory council, including formal membership restrictions or withdrawal of membership. The way our bodies respond to arousal was designed by God to prepare us for satisfying sexual experiences in marriage. These arousal patterns are normal, healthy and important! When hugging, kissing, or cuddling a partner, practice noticing how your body reacts and be aware of when and how arousal is triggered in your body. What kind of contact do you like/find particularly exciting? Are there certain places or contexts that appeal to you more? Don`t be afraid to think about these kinds of questions.
59 United States v. Lara, 541 U.S. 193 (2004) (federal indictment for assaulting a federal official after a tribal conviction for "violence against a police officer"). The Court concluded that Congress had the authority to recognize tribal sovereignty to prosecute non-members of Native Americans, that Congress had done so, and that, therefore, tribal persecution was an exercise of tribal sovereignty and not an exercise of delegated federal authority on which a finding of double jeopardy could be based. Basically, double punishment means that you cannot be tried more than once for the same crime (although there are exceptions to this rule). As stated by the United States Supreme Court in its unanimous decision in Ball v. United States 163 U.S. Lanza53 that the conviction of a person who had already been convicted by a state court for the same facts was upheld by a federal court. "Here we have two sovereignties that draw their energy from different sources and are able to deal with the same object on the same territory.
Each government decides what constitutes a violation of its peace and dignity, exercises its own sovereignty, not that of others. 54 The doctrine of "dual sovereignty" is linked not only to the existence of two sets of laws, often serving different federal objectives, and to the now-repealed principle that the double criminality clause restricts only the national government and not the federal states,55 but also reflects practical considerations that the abolition of the doctrine could have undesirable consequences. Thus, a state could anticipate federal authority by first prosecuting and providing a lenient sentence (compared to the possible federal penalty) or by acquitting defendants who had the sympathy of state authorities against federal prosecution.56 The application of the clause to the states thus did not result in any change in the doctrine of "dual sovereignty".57 The doctrine of dual sovereignty was also applied. allow successive prosecutions by two States for the same conduct. 58 and to allow federal prosecution following a conviction by an Indian tribal court for an offence attributable to the same conduct.59 If, in fact, two different government entities are subject to the same sovereign, the double prosecution clause excludes separate prosecutions by them for the same crime.60 Double prosecution prevents a person from being tried again for the same crime is provided. Dr. Caroline Derry explains its importance and why the law was partially abolished. These cases are not considered double jeopardy. They do not violate the double jeopardy clause of the U.S.
Constitution under the Fifth Amendment, because under the doctrine of separate sovereigns, state and federal governments are independent agencies. This maintenance of a separate legal authority allows a person to be tried twice for the same crime without constitutional protection. "The constitutional prohibition of `double punishment` was developed to protect a person from the dangers of trial and possible conviction more than once for an alleged crime. The underlying idea, deeply rooted at least in the Anglo-American legal system, is that the state, with all its resources and powers, should not be allowed to make repeated attempts to convict a person for an alleged crime, thereby exposing them to embarrassment, cost and scrutiny, and forcing them to live in a prolonged state of fear and uncertainty. and increase the possibility that, although innocent, he will be found guilty. 39 A second `vital interest` contained in the double criminality clause `is the preservation of the finality of decisions`. 40 In Blockburger v. In the United States (1932), the Supreme Court announced the following test: the government may separately attempt to punish the accused for two crimes if each crime contains an element that does not contain the other. [80] Blockburger is the standard rule, unless the current legislation intends to depart legislatively; For example, continuous criminal enterprise (CCE) can be punished separately from its predicates,[81][82] as well as conspiracy. [83] All members of the Council of Europe (which include almost all European countries and all members of the European Union) have accepted the European Convention on Human Rights. [9] Article 4 7 of the Optional Protocol to the Convention protects against double punishment: "No one shall be convicted or punished again in criminal proceedings within the jurisdiction of the same State for an offence for which he has already been finally acquitted or convicted in accordance with the law and criminal procedure of that State." [10] Double prosecution, i.e.
legal protection against the use of certain forms of prosecution by the state. In many European countries, prosecutors can appeal an acquittal to a higher court. [ref. needed] This is not a double punishment, but a continuation of the same case. The European Convention on Human Rights allows this by using the expression "finally pronounced or convicted" as a trigger for a prohibition of further prosecution. The small number of cases is no coincidence: there are demanding legal controls that must be completed in cases of "double prosecution" and a special procedure that must be followed. First, the rule has been reformed only for the most serious crimes, such as murder and rape. A person cannot face a second trial after being acquitted of shoplifting charges, no matter how strong the new evidence! For offences covered by the regulations, the Head of Public Prosecution Service (DPP) must personally agree to the reopening of an investigation. The DPP will consider not only the strength of the evidence, but also whether reopening the case is in the public interest. The Blockburger test, which was originally developed in the context of multiple sentences, is also the test for prosecution after conviction.

The Act establishes a framework for the exchange of information between NSW Health and SafeWork NSW for the notification of certain dust-related occupational diseases and establishes a dust-related disease register maintained by SafeWork NSW. SafeWork NSW will publish an annual report on the dust disease registry on its website. The law also gives NSW Health broad powers to share information with NSW WHS regulators and requires SafeWork NSW to conduct a case study to investigate exposure to crystalline silica in the stone industry. In addition, the Digital Introductory Training Cards Regulations, 2020 allow for the issuance, use and deletion of digital versions of general training cards for introduction to construction. The amending ordinance also amends section 702 to include the National Disability Insurance Scheme Act 2013.
This change will facilitate the flow of information between SafeWork NSW and the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission, which is necessary for investigations and compliance on certain issues. It is essentially identical to the 2011 regulations, except for minor changes, including formatting and correction of typos. Amendments were made to the WHS regulations to increase fees and better align them with the Model Health and Safety Regulations – the national framework. The model MHS Act and Regulations and related documents have been updated to reflect a number of recommendations from a 2019 review by Marie Boland (Boland Recommendations) Other Boland recommendations are still ongoing, such as a review of incident reporting provisions.

After a successful pre-sale and an overwhelmingly positive reception worldwide, Blockshipping announces the public sale of CCC tokens launches May 14. Copenhagen, May 8, 2018 – The container shipping industry today accounts for around 60 percent of all the world's seaborne trade, but this hugely valuable industry has been troubled for years by challenges such as; Blockshipping is creating the Global Shared Container Platform (GSCP), which is both the first real-time registry of the world's approximately 27 million shipping containers, and a joint platform for all players in the container shipping industry – allowing them to efficiently perform a wide range of transactions related to the handling of containers globally..
Since the Blockshipping token sale was first announced at the beginning of March, the reception to the Blockshipping GSCP project has been extremely positive, and the Blockshipping team has great expectations for the public sale. Blockshipping has been reviewed by several leading ICO ranking sites, and the results clearly conclude that the Blockshipping token sale is in the top tier in terms of quality: In a short amount of time, Blockshipping has managed to raise awareness about the company's token sale in most parts of the world..
Starting in Denmark and Scandinavia at the beginning of March, the wave of media attention spread rapidly worldwide with more than 100 articles about the Blockshipping GSCP project and the token sale in all continents in crypto media, fintech media, shipping media and broader business media. The positive ratings and the overwhelming interest from both community and media have strongly supported Blockshipping's firm belief in the great potential of the Global Shared Container Platform..
"I am extremely proud to say that a few days ago Blockshipping obtained confirmation from a global container carrier that they will join our GSCP platform as our first customer. The token model involves the issuance of two different tokens: All contributors can start to place their orders for Blockshipping's CCC tokens when the Blockshipping's public sale opens on May 14, 2 pm CET..


For a while Hubby was concerned about putting holes in the wall to hang art since we rent our place. But over the years he's warmed up to it, especially since we've started a collection of art prints and other funs.
My first "art" was a paper geometric heart, hung up with tape. This was pre-being ok with poking the walls with nails. It added a nice bright and colorful focal point in the living room. Also, it was super easy to make (the hardest part was making it look level on the wall). Also pictured: Chubby Cat by The Little Red House and a triangle shelf I made with Wood Thumb.
The first wall holes we made were to hang this duo of Rifle Paper co art prints.
And then we started purchasing prints while on vacation. From our Pacific Northwest adventures: letter pressed cards from Seattle (I love framing cards!) and a bike print from Portland.
And from our mini-moon: a Lake Tahoe love print. Plus, that's us in cartoon form – a drawing/watercolor by the talented Genevieve Santos.
Above: My first large scale weaving project. I used a giant loom from the Unusual Pear and gathered yarn from all over. Below: my first macrame wall hanging project. I used driftwood that I collected from our adventures at Land's End. Both of these made fun weekend projects.
How do you like to decorate your walls? With paint, pictures, paper? Share below!


There's a Mars/Pluto opposition coming up (Mars in Cancer will oppose Pluto in Capricorn). Should you be worried?
I get this question a lot: should I be worried about this transit or that transit? It's true that Mars opposite Pluto pits aggression/initiative (Mars) against power (Pluto). This aspect can trigger power struggles (and possible violence). But I'm not going to tell you that you "should" be worried, because there is always some tension somewhere in the sky that's hitting your chart. I believe that if you focus obsessively on these transits, you overlook the positive energies that are also, always out there.
So I'll say this is a head's up. Be aware, but don't freak out about it. Mars in Cancer pushes for personal needs/security, while Pluto in Capricorn uses power/status to amputate or deny whatever is excessively dependent. So there's the heart of this aspect; if you demand too much emotional control, or barge in where you're not wanted, you might feel the kick of this opposition.
Mars is the activator, but Pluto is the bigger gun and will win (if there's a showdown). That means authority will probably have the upper hand over personal agendas. It's big guy (Pluto) versus little guy (Mars). Keep these themes in mind over the next few days, and apply where necessary. If you can't avoid a challenge, try to keep the anger/emotional reactions to a minimum. The more emotional fury you throw at Pluto, the more you'll get hurt.
This influence will peak on July 27th (at 9 degrees) but it will start to build from July 23rd. If you have planets/angles from 7-9 degrees Cancer, Capricorn, Libra or Aries, you may feel this one.


Did you know that the United States jump rope record (as of 2017) for the greatest number of jumps in a minute is 372? That's more than six jumps a second! How close do you think you can get to that number? If you are going to try to break the record, it might be important to figure out how jump rope length affects your success. Try your hand at this skipping science fair project and jump-start your chances for a jump rope record. If you have a smartphone available, you can use it to measure how fast you jump with Google's Science Journal app.
Determine the best length for a jump rope.
Science Buddies Staff. "Skipping Science: An Experiment in Jump Rope Lengths." Science Buddies, 30 June 2018, https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/project-ideas/Sports_p051/sports-science/jump-rope-lengths. Accessed 23 Apr. 2019.
Did you know that jumping rope is great exercise? Professional boxers do it to improve their coordination, which is the ability to make smooth and accurate movements involving different body parts, and to improve their endurance, which is the length of time for which someone can do a physical activity without stopping.
Plus, jumping rope can be a lot of fun! That's easy to see in the DragonflyTV video on the right, where Francesca, Precious, Marnicka, and their friends show off their double-Dutch skills while investigating the science of jumping rope. In double Dutch, there are two jump ropes being turned, by two people, while one or more people jump the ropes while doing tricks. One of the hard parts is knowing when the ropes are coming, which made Francesca, Precious, and Marnicka decide to investigate whether it was hearing the ropes or seeing the ropes that made them able to be successful at double Dutch. What do you think their experiment revealed? Watch the video to find out, and to see all their great jumping tricks!
Click the image to watch this DragonflyTV video, presented by pbskidsgo.org, and see how Francesca, Precious, and Marnicka investigate which of their senses are important for jumping rope.
In addition to jump rope tricks, there are also competitions for speed jumping. In 2017, the United States record for the most jumps per minute was 372! How many jumps per minute can you make? Do you think that the length of the jump rope might change how many jumps you could make in a minute? The longer the rope, the more time it takes to turn it in a full circle. Shorter ropes turn faster, but because the circle is smaller, you might have to jump higher to get over the rope, and that might slow you down or cause you to make a mistake. So, to help you get started on your own personal best jumps-per-minute count, in this science fair project you will determine the best jump rope length and get a scientific jump on your competition!
Why is jumping rope a good exercise?
Why does it take more time to complete a full circle when swinging a long jump rope than a short jump rope?
See the option 2 section at the end of the procedure for instructions to use the phone in this project.
Note: In this project, you will determine what length jump rope allows people to jump the fastest by measuring their jumps per minute. There are two different methods to do this. In one method, you can have someone count your jumps using a stopwatch. In the second method, you can use a phone with Google's Science Journal app to make a graph of your jumping motion, and count the number of peaks in the graph. You can find the instructions to do so here.
To start this project, you will need to find three people who know how to jump rope. You will each be jumping rope by yourselves—not double Dutch for this experiment.
You can include yourself as one of the three people.
If you or one of your friends would like to take part in the experiment but do not know how to jump rope, check out the resources in the Bibliography in the Background section for some methods you could use.
Fold the 8-foot-long jump rope in half to find the midway point. Have the jumper stand on this point with both feet, put a handle in each hand, and pull the handles straight up along his or her sides. Have a helper shorten the jump rope, using the following directions, until the handles are between the jumper's belly button and armpits. This is the short jump rope length.
To make the jump rope shorter, the helper should tie knots just beneath the handles. Try to tie the same number of knots beneath each handle. Tie as many knots as needed to make the rope the right length.
If the 8-foot jump rope is too short to reach midway between the jumper's belly button and armpits, use the 10-foot-long jump rope instead.
The jumper should yell "Go!" and begin jumping.
As soon as the jumper says "Go!", a second person should start the stopwatch.
A third person should count the number of successful jumps over the rope the jumper makes.
The jumper should continue to jump rope for 1 minute, at which point the person with the stopwatch should yell "Stop!" so that the jumper and the counter both know to stop their tasks.
If the jumper "messes up," the stopwatch should not stop. The jumper should continue jumping rope, time continues, and the person counting should keep counting up instead of restarting the count. For example, if after 10 successful jumps, the rope hits the jumper's foot and he or she has to restart, the counter should count the next successful jump as number 11.
Record the number of successful jumps in a data table like Table 1 in your lab notebook.
Once the jumper has rested long enough to catch his or her breath, he or she should repeat steps 3–5 twice more for a total of three trials with that jump rope length.
Using the same method as in step 2, re-adjust the jump rope length so that the tips of the handles are now just barely brushing the same jumper's armpits. This is the medium jump rope length.
The jumper should repeat steps 3-6 using the medium jump rope length. Record the number of successful jumps in the data table.
Now, using the same method as in step 2, re-adjust the jump rope length so that the tips of the handles just barely brush the jumper's chin. This is the long jump rope length.
The jumper should repeat steps 3-6 using the long jump rope length. Record the number of successful jumps in the data table.
Repeat the whole procedure (steps 2-11) for the other two jumpers. Remember to record the number of successful jumps in the data table.
For each jumper, calculate the average number of successful jumps for each jump rope length.
For example, to calculate the average number of successful jumps that jumper #1 made using the short jump rope, add up the data for trial #1, trial #2, and trial #3, then divide by the total number of trials (which is 3).
Using the graph paper, make three bar graphs, one for each jumper, showing the average number of successful jumps for each jump rope length.
Label each bar so you know what it represents.
Look at your graphs. For each jumper, which jump rope length resulted in the most successful jumps over the rope in 1 minute? Which jump rope length was least successful? Was it the same for each jumper?
What if you wanted to take a more scientific measurement of your jumping motion? What could you measure? One thing scientists measure about moving objects is their velocity, or their speed and direction. When you jump up and down, your velocity changes over and over again as you slow down and speed up. Scientists describe this type of repetitive motion as periodic. A change in velocity is called acceleration. Sometimes it is easier to measure acceleration than velocity. Scientists measure acceleration using a device called an accelerometer. Accelerometers are built in to many smartphones and video game controllers to give them motion controls. They allow games to respond to motion when you tilt or shake the controller.
Figure out how to mount the phone to your waist, hip, or torso while jumping rope. You could put the phone in your back pocket or use a phone belt clip. The phone should be tightly held to your body so it does not slide or bounce around.
Depending on how the phone is attached to your body, open either the X or Y accelerometer. You want to measure up-and-down acceleration while you are jumping. So, for example, if the phone is vertical in your back pocket, you should use the Y accelerometer. If the phone is sideways in a belt clip, use the X accelerometer.
Practice recording acceleration while jumping. You will need to press the record button, attach the phone to your body, jump rope for slightly more than a minute, detach the phone, and press the record button again to stop recording.
Use the "crop" feature to shorten your data to a length of exactly one minute, while you were jumping rope. Make sure you crop off the parts at the beginning and end of the data while you were handling the phone, which may look irregular or spiky on the graph. You only want to keep the part in the middle when you were jumping, which should show a regular pattern like in Figure 1.
Figure 1. An example graph that shows data recorded with Google's Science Journal while jumping rope. The x-axis of the graph shows time in minutes:seconds and the y-axis shows acceleration in meters per second squared. Each peak in the graph indicates one jump. This graph shows 24 peaks in a 10 second period, so a total of 144 jumps per minute (24×6=144).
Look at the graph of your acceleration. The graph should be periodic (the same pattern repeats over and over). Each repetition of the same pattern, or period, represents one complete jump. If you count the number of peaks that occur in one minute on the graph, that will tell you how many times you jumped in one minute. You may see smaller bumps or flat parts in the graph if you messed up and had to start over. Only count complete jumps.
If it is too difficult to count the number of peaks in a one-minute graph, try recording data for a shorter amount of time. For example, you can record for 10 seconds, count the peaks, and then multiply by 6 to calculate the equivalent number of jumps per minute.
Once you have practiced recording data while jumping rope and counting the number of jumps using the graph, follow the same procedure described in the "Option 1" section of this experiment. However, use the graph recorded by the Science Journal app for each trial to count the number of jumps per minute, instead of having a helper use a stopwatch.
Does jump rope length also affect the number of mess-ups? Keep track of both the successful jumps and the misses and plot them both. Are the two numbers related? Hint: a fourth person may be needed to keep track of the number of mess-ups.
Also try this experiment using different jump rope tricks, instead of just plain jumps over the rope. Does length have more of an effect on tricks than on plain jumps?
Design an experiment to find the best jump rope length for double Dutch.
In the DragonflyTV video in the Introduction, Francesca, Precious, and Marnicka jumped rope to different music with different beats. Try jumping rope to slow music, fast music, and no music. Does the music change how many successful jumps you can make in a minute? How about the number of successful jumps you can make in a row without messing up?
Can jumping rope help you on a spelling test? Randomly assign volunteers to two groups: One group will copy down 10 words from a spelling list with pen and paper. The other group will work with a partner who will call out the word and the spelling first, and then the jumper will repeat the word and each letter back and "jump out" each letter of the words—one jump for each letter. Test your volunteers the next day with the spelling list (have them spell out with pen and paper each word that they practiced the day before) and see which group has the best scores, on average.
