Broadband adoption is on the rise, but states can do much more
Series: Metropolitan Infrastructure Initiative
Lara Fishbane and Adie Tomer Thursday, October 10, 2019
Presidential elections are a great time to take stock of what issues matter to voters, and, based on early indicators, solving the country's digital divide is certainly one of them. Senator Elizabeth Warren and Mayor Pete Buttigieg have each introduced sweeping plans to address broadband inequities, including gaps in physical networks and lack of digital training. While each proposal is a bit different, there are signs that the eventual Democratic Party candidate may include ambitious and sweeping broadband reform in their campaign.

Broadband, which enables high-speed internet access, is essential infrastructure in our digital age. However, with 19 million disconnected households across the country, it is impossible to capitalize on broadband's full economic and social impacts. While a presidential platform can incentivize policy reform at the federal level, the road to change is still a long one, slowed by political infighting and congressional discord.
Instead of waiting for the stars to align in Washington, we should focus on states as an important middle ground. States have access to a range of tools and resources—independent of federal action—to promote broadband availability and adoption within their borders. The question is whether they will actually use them.
At a time of vast divergence between economically thriving regions and those facing economic stagnation, it's important to understand the digital divide at the state level. This piece uses American Community Survey 1-year data to judge state broadband performance and how those trends can inform future policy design.
The digital divide between states is narrowing
Over the past five years, the average state saw an increase in broadband adoption from 72.4% in 2013 to 82.8% in 2017. While all states saw increases in broadband adoption rates over the five-year span, the gains were most significant at the bottom, closing the gap between the highest and lowest adoption states. In 2013, the average broadband adoption rate for the top ten states was 78.8%, while the average adoption rate for the bottom ten was 14.8 percentage points lower, at 64.0%. By 2017, the gap between the top and bottom ten had fallen to 10.6 percentage points.
Though data for broadband adoption rates by income group only goes back to 2015, the gap between average adoption rates for high-income (those earning above $75,000) and low-income (below $20,000) households is also narrowing. In 2015, the average state saw a 42.6 percentage point difference in adoption rates between high and low earners. In 2017, the difference between high and low earners dropped to 35.5 percentage points. Though the gap is narrowing, there's still a long way to go for states whose low-income residents lag so far behind their higher-earning neighbors.

Not all broadband connections are the same
According to the Federal Communications Commission, the word "broadband" actually refers to a spectrum of technologies, including both fixed and mobile services. And even though mobile services meet the statutory definition of broadband, it is not a full substitute for fixed, in-home services.
This distinction—in-home and mobile services are complements, not substitutes—makes it all the more concerning that the states with the lowest broadband adoption rates also have the highest mobile-only subscriptions. The 10 states with the lowest rates of household broadband adoption had a mobile-only subscription rate of 14.1%, with states in the Southeast and South Central registering the highest mobile-only rates.
What drives the differences between states?
In understanding what drives different outcomes across states, we looked at four variables of interest: income, race, rural population, and education. Using regressions to analyze those variables, our team found results similar to many other researchers before us (see here and here). States with higher median incomes, higher rates of education, fewer residents of color, and a smaller rural population share had higher overall broadband adoption rates. In terms of mobile-only subscriptions, the reverse is true. States with larger shares of Black residents and lower levels of education had higher rates of mobile-only services.
The growing research consensus around these variables of interest presents a valuable opportunity to inform policy design. If specific factors consistently impact broadband adoption, states can prioritize policies that will overcome barriers to more equitable broadband performance. For example, states with higher shares of low-income residents may want to prioritize policies to address affordability, while states with residents with lower levels of educational attainment may want to prioritize digital literacy programming.
What levers do states have?
States have a number of tools they can employ to expand broadband services and increase adoption rates across the state. A recent project by the Pew Charitable Trusts lays out the different funding mechanisms, funding goals, incentives, and policy initiatives that states can leverage to extend services by offsetting the cost of deployment or encouraging more providers to enter the market.
With so many factors at play in a given state, it is difficult to gauge the effectiveness of any one program. But the breadth of levers is worth exploring. Maine, for example, provides a tax credit for leasing or buying broadband equipment. Virginia is using money from the Tobacco Region Revitalization Commission to expand broadband programs. And many other states have set up funds directed to underserved areas, as well as "last mile projects" that deliver broadband service directly to customers.
However, there is still more that states can do. Many should reconsider laws that block local efforts to expand broadband access, which limit opportunities to service populations that privately owned broadband networks will not.
Although increasing broadband availability is an important step, states can also do more to develop scalable adoption programming. After all, according to a recent report by Pew, only 22% of non-broadband users cite a lack of access or speed as a prohibitive barrier. Meanwhile, 50% cite cost as a major factor, and 45% cite a lack of relevancy (or perceived usefulness).
These numbers, backed by our earlier findings, suggest that states need to do more to increase affordable options and digital literacy training. North Carolina, for example, has a Broadband Infrastructure Office, which has published a set of recommendations to increase adoption rates. These include advertising low-cost options, extending high-speed service to libraries, and building out digital literacy tools.
The digital divide between states only further confirms the country's broadband needs. Federal action may be difficult to predict, but states have a unique opportunity to address their challenges today while informing the eventual federal policies to come.

The closest we'll ever get, probably, to superheroes in real life is through the great work of cosplayers. You see them at every pop culture convention from the very basic to extremely elaborate costume design. However, you don't have to be a cosplayer to enjoy dressing up as your favorite superhero from time to time. Take fitness model and entrepreneur Gia Macool for example. An accomplished fitness competitor and model, Macool is also a big fan of DC Comics' Wonder Woman. She shows her love of the iconic Amazon Princess in her fitness wear, meal prep accessories and even a full blown photo shoot in a Wonder Woman costume.

Poetry of Charles d'Orléans and His Circle
A Critical Edition of BnF MS. fr. 25458, Charles d'Orléans' Personal Manuscript
M.-J. Arn, J. Fox (eds.)
LXV+957 p., 175 x 255 mm, 2010
Languages: French, English
Retail price: EUR 115,00 excl. tax
This is the first complete edition of the French poetry of Charles d'Orléans and his circle since Champion's 1923 edition. It is also the first full translation into English.
This is the first complete, modern critical edition of the personal copy of the poetry of Charles, duc Orléans (BnF MS. fr. 25458), a manuscript made up primarily of lyrics. The duke also included lyrics composed by members of his household, his family, his friends, his peers, and various visitors to his court at Blois. The manuscript was almost certainly commissioned in London near the end of the duke's captivity (1439–1440). The edition contains the first translation (facing-page) of the duke's collection into English. It is intended to supersede Pierre Champion's 1923 edition of the same manuscript. Before Champion, editions of the duke's poetry simply reproduced the poems in manuscript order; his edition offered a new order based on his observations of the manuscript's construction. This new edition corrects that order by basing it on a recent codicological study of the manuscript, The Poet's Notebook, by Mary-Jo Arn. It is intended for literary scholars of both French and English, but its extensive contextualizing introduction, translation, and glossary will make it useful to advanced students and readers in a variety of disciplines.
"The scope and the completeness of this edition (as well as the sheer beauty of Charles's poetry) make it a must-have for anyone interested in and captivated by late medieval poetry." (R. Blumenfeld-Kosinski, in: The Medieval Review, 12.03.07, http://hdl.handle.net/2011/14275)
"Bref, cette édition est un outil indispensable pour qui veut étudier les pièces de Charles d'Orleans dans leur contexte, c'est-à-dire dans un ordre de présentation conforme à l'ordre de confection du volume et au sein des pièces des autres poètes qui ont contribué à cette collection."

One of the points of my survey of the churchyard was to locate the resting places of those of my relatives whose graves are not marked. This page is about William and Eliza Ashworth, my Great Grandparents.
I was able to see the church plot map which I scanned and transcribed. A small portion is shown below on which the green cells are where grave markers exist and the white ones where markers are missing. The yellow cell is the plot occupied by William and Eliza. I have rotated the image ro make it more readable but the sideways version will make sense when compared to the plot map.
He was born on 19 June 1859 in Coates, Whittlesey, Cambridgeshire. The birth was registered on 13th June 1859 by his mother Sarah who could not write, so she made her mark.
He appeared in the census on 7 April 1861 in Coates, Whittlesey, Cambridgeshire and was listed in the 1871 census as an Agricultural Labourer. He appears in Kelly's Directory for 1879 as a Wheelwright and Carpenter in Coates, Whittlesey, Cambridgeshire. However, on 3 October 1886 he was described as a Farm Labourer in Coates, on the Birth Certificate of his son George. By 1 June 1905 William was again a Carpenter and Wheelwright and he had an Apprentice (John Cole), which is shown on the census taken on 2 April 1911; he was still living in Coates, Whittlesey, Cambridgeshire.
William signed a will on 18 April 1913. He would seem to have known he was very ill.
This is the last Will and testament of me William Ashworth of Coates Whittlesea in the Isle of Ely Carpenter I give devise and bequeath to my wife Eliza Ashworth All my real and personal estate subject to the payment of my final debts and funeral expenses And I appoint my said wife Sole Executrix of this my will in witness I have set to this my hand this eighteenth day of April One thousand nine hundred and thirteen in the presence of James Woodcock (Land Surveyor) and Joel (?) Blunt of Coates.
William died on 30 April 1913 at the age of 53 in Coates, Whittlesey, Cambridgeshire. The cause of death was Pulmonary Tuberculosis. His wife Eliza present at the death. He was buried on 3 May 1913 at Holy Trinity Cemetery in Coates. No headstone exists.
Probate of his estate was granted on 10 June 1913 in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire of £75 8s 8d.
We regret to announce the death of Mr. Wm. Ashworth, who passed peacefully away at his own home early on Wednesday morning last. Deceased had been suffering for some years from a tubercular disease, which, during the last few months, made rapid progress, and it was seen some little time ago that the end was not far off, though it came with a greater suddenness than was anticipated. The deceased had been in business as a carpenter and joiner in the village for about fourteen years, and was highly respected by everyone with whom he came in contact. He held the Chairmanship of the Helping Hand Club, until illness compelled him to resign the same last year, much to the sorrow of the members. The funeral took place on Saturday when the deceased was laid to rest in the churchyard at Coates, amidst general signs of regret and sympathy. The Rev. J.T. [...] of Whittlesey, performed the last [and] rites, taking the service in the chapel (of which deceased had been so active a member) and also at the graveside. The coffin which was of elm, with black fittings, bearing the inscription: "William Ashworth; born June 19th 1859; died April 30th 1913" was carried shoulder high by four of his friends - fellow members of the chapel - Messrs.

The Hohe Brücke (High Bridge) is a bridge across the Tiefer Graben (Deep Ditch) in Innere Stadt, Vienna, Austria. It links the two parts of Wipplingerstraße, which used to be separated by a brook.

For a long time there has been a lottery next to the bridge, and many people in Vienna remember their old advertising slogan, Über die Hohe Brücke führt der Weg zum Glücke ("Across the High Bridge leads the path to luck").

The current bridge was designed by Josef Hackhofer and built in 1903–04.

Waste company fined £15,000 after injured worker has part of leg amputated
A waste company worker had to have part of his leg amputated after suffering horrific injuries when a vehicle ran over it.
The 39-year-old had been worked at the Regen Waste Ltd plant at Newry's Carnbane Industrial Estate when the incident happened in April of last year.
The company was today (Wednesday) fined £15,000 at Newry Crown Court, along with costs of £664, after the health and safety breach.
Dariusz Jurczyk had to have the lower part of his right leg amputated, the court was told.
Today's sentencing comes after a Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland (HSENI) investigation into how the injured party was struck by a reversing vehicle at the company's premises on April 24 last year.
Regen Waste Ltd – a waste and recycling company – employs around 150 and mainly processes household waste recyclables such as paper, cardboard, metal cans and plastics. It operates a range of plant vehicles, including loading shovels, forklift trucks and skid-loaders throughout the site.
On the day of the incident, Mr Jurczyk, along with other employees, were brushing up aluminium material from below and around a conveyor system into small piles for a skid-loader to remove.
As the injured party was brushing, the skid-loader operating in his area ran over his leg.
The HSENI investigation found the company had failed to ensure a safe system of work to prevent accidents.
Proper consideration had not been given to how workers and vehicles could be kept apart, with the result that a person was run over resulting in horrific injuries.
This lack of good all-round visibility on the skid loader was also a significant factor, the court was informed.
Speaking after sentencing, HSENI Major Investigation Team inspector Kevin Campbell, said: "All businesses must ensure that vehicle movements are properly controlled on site and where possible people and vehicles separated.
"Reversing manoeuvres are particularly dangerous and, where possible, should be avoided. If they cannot, then measures should be taken to prevent people being struck or run over. Vehicles must be well maintained and mirrors or cameras need to be fitted correctly to ensure good all-round visibility."
Workplace transport related incidents continue to account for serious injuries and fatalities amongst many industries, including waste and recycling.
The Waste Industry Safety and Health Forum Northern Ireland (WISHNI) provides useful advice and encourages best practice in the waste and recycling industry. Material for employers to use within their workplace, including advice for the safe use of loaders is available from the WISHNI website.

FARMERS GROWING SORGHUM IN WESTERN KENYA TO BENEFIT FROM RE-OPENING OF BREWERY
NAIROBI, Farmers in Kenya's western region are set to reap dividends from the cultivation of white sorghum following the revival of a brewery of East Africa Breweries Limited (EABL) in Kisumu.
EABL, through its subsidiary, East Africa Malting Limited (EAML), and in conjunction with the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries, has started recruiting farmers in the area to grow white sorghum, with some 15, 000 farmers set to benefit from the project.
Kisumu County Agriculture Technical Support Manager Sylvester Oketch says the farmers would be divided into three groups depending on the size of their farms. He adds that such a division is necessary to safeguard the interests of the farmers and ease the procurement of sorghum from various locations.
Okech said small-scale farmers with one to ten acres would be directly linked to a firm that would collect the harvest from them at 32 shillings per kilogram and deliver it to EABL. Large-scale farmers and plantations ranging from 10 to 100 acres would enter into direct contracts with EABL and would individually deliver the produce to the firm at 38 shillings per kg.
The mapped out areas for the programme include Migori, Siaya, Kisumu and Busia, which have the most suitable climatic conditions for sorghum farming.
The farmers shall be trained on white sorghum farming and at the same time receive field extension services courtesy of EABL.
President Uhuru Kenyatta last year officially re-opened the brewery which closed shop in the 1990's. The brewery, which is set to start operations in June this year, will increase the production capacity of the Senator Keg beer which is popular among low-income earners.

The reason that a new book promotion event at a bookstore is included in this concert review section…it's because the author sang a few songs during the event. And the author was…Patti Smith!
It was coincident to find out about the book event. My radar was totally zero. I went to Barnes & Noble in Union Square to find books for upcoming music trip series after previous Patti Smith series on this website (What is it? Secret!). When I arrived at the large bookstore, I found out Patti Smith would make a special appearance for her new book, "Devotion", later that evening. I definitely needed to go! I bought "Devotion" as a ticket to the seat.
Patti Smith showed up to the stage about 30 minutes after scheduled 7:00 p.m.
Before she was an author or what purpose was to be at the bookstore, Patti Smith was still a Rock Star. Punk queen. Period. The charisma radiated from Patti Smith with sunglasses and black pants suit was maximum from the beginning. Patti's aura wasn't laid back unlike her talks during the event or recent friendly photos. She didn't shout. She didn't do anything special when she came to the stage, either. But Patti's appearance was simply sharp. She knocked us out immediately. Truly goddess.
Patti started talking about her busy schedule on that day. From a hectic trip back from Washington D.C. by delayed Amtrak, attendance at United Nations, hence she had no time to change her outfit and still same black suit since morning, etc. Then she talked about "Devotion", including the background of her latest book and reading some portions of a poetry called "Ashford". Her talk was with a lot of humor and jokes as well as wit.
Patti's talk about her new book was definitely caught the attention from her fans filled the fourth floor entire an hour. Honestly, that event's highlight was definitely when she sang. Patti Smith sang three songs during the book event: "Devoted to You" by The Everly Brothers (though I'm not sure which version she sang, The Everly Brothers or Carly Simon), Patti's "Beneath The Southern Cross" from Gone Again album with her acoustic guitar, and "Can't Help Falling in Love" by Elvis Presley.
No matter she used the thin podium microphone, not the strong concert microphone, took a few mistakes about the lyrics or didn't use anything electric, time stopped when she sang. Patti's voice power to catch the audience into her world was extra strong. It would be unsuitable to talk about Patti's vocal from the technical side. Indeed, Patti's voice was powerful, stable, and emotional in the event, but her voice surpassed those cheap facts. Her voice had stunning charisma and persona that addicted many fans through her 42 years professional career even on the small podium stage at a bookstore. It wasn't a full live performance at a concert venue but definitely the moment to be satisfied by the art of her music world. That was why this "discussion/signing" event was on the concert review section. Definitely, a valuable live performance event that nobody could imitate.
The moment that the atmosphere was changed when Patti Smith grabbed an acoustic guitar.
There were reasons Patti Smith sang those three songs. You can imagine about "Devoted to You" from the title of her new book. Regarding "Beneath The Southern Cross", Patti explained that she thought it would be a nice idea to sing it when she visited a synagogue in Washington D.C. for the previous book event, as well as a tribute to Sam Shepard, a playwright and her ex, who died on July 27. On Q&A session, Patti declined to comment on a question from an attendance about the death of Sam Shepard but instead sang "Can't Help Falling in Love" for her answer.
I don't rate the event because that was not a concert. But Patti Smith spread her unchanged radical thrills as a rock artist at the book event.
A little speech before starting the signing.
Patti and her daughter, Jesse.
Patti Smith's new book, "Devotion".

Tuesday's horrific events in New York and Washington, D.C. impacted the day-to-day operations of business and government in numerous ways. Particular to foreign labor certification activities has been the impact on mail delivery. A recent article in the Washington Post noted that 20% of the U.S. Post Office's mail and a significantly greater amount of private express mail are transported by air. The shutdown of all U.S. airports has resulted in significant delays in the movement of mail across the United States.
Recent reports indicate that it will be days, if not weeks, until mail delivery returns to normal. Therefore, I believe that it is appropriate for the National and Regional Offices, and States to temporarily waive all statutory and regulatory due dates for the period between September 11, 2001 and September 25, 2001 for rebuttals, remands, 45-day letters and etc. to recognize the disruption in mail service. Specifically, anything with a due date during this period should be considered timely if received by October 1, 2001. Additionally, during this period we should also waive our longstanding policy to not grant 2nd extensions.
Finally, there were numerous law offices located in the WTC and other buildings in the immediate area that have sustained significant or total damage, including the loss of case files, etc. We will work with AILA, ACIP and other similar organizations to develop a method for identifying these firms and will waive due dates on a case by case.

Your Chattering Mind comes alive through what you are saying to yourself all day. It's a noisy place—repetitive, habitual and many times negative.
Your Chattering Mind, when left unchecked, moves you into an automatic and unconscious way of being. And this automatic way of being keeps your chatter focused on a small set of experiences, looping continuously and filtering everything you do through this repetitive loop.
This unconcious looping limits the natural openness of your true adventurous self. And this in turn limits your experience of the magic of your life unfolding moment by moment.
Today, when you notice you are caught in your Chattering Mind, let your body and breath bring you back to the natural openness of the present moment.

Since the official launch of the cooperation year in Manila in March, the two tourism blocs have drawn closer on matters concerning the sector.
Pongpanu Svetarundra, permanent secretary of the Tourism and Sports Ministry, said that as a result of the cooperative effort, Asean and China had established high-level cooperation on tourism matters, shared data and statistics at multiple levels, and promoted quality tourism through the enhancement of standards.
They have also encouraged participation at travel-trade shows and tourism festivals through the Asean-China Centre, boosted links between tourism education institutions, facilitated greater liberalised air connectivity, and created a framework for better cruise and yacht tourism cooperation, he said.
China is the biggest source of foreign tourists for Asean, and tourism growth between the two blocs is already huge.
Last year, Asean's number of tourist arrivals from China was 19.8 million, an increase of 6.4 per cent over 2015.
The number of Asean tourists visiting China came in at 10.34 million, some 57.8 per cent higher than the 2015 level.

The Charter for Health Inclusion
The National Development Team for Inclusion is a not for profit organisation working to enable people at risk of exclusion to live the life they choose. They work with policymakers, services and communities to bring about 'change that leads to better lives'. The team has released a report on the development and progress of a Charter for Health. It is aimed primarily at assisting people with learning disabilities, but also applicable to other groups potentially exposed to exclusion.
People at risk of exclusion can include people with learning disabilities, older people, young people and their families, and people with mental health difficulties.
Agencies Involved
The Learning Disability Public Health Observatory has identified a lower uptake of health services by people with disability, and this inequality is associated with social factors such as poverty, poor housing, unemployment, isolation and discrimination. This led to work between the Voluntary Organisations Disability Group (VODG) and the National Care Forum, to develop and implement the Health Charter.
Signing up to the Health Charter is a way for services to reduce inequality, ensure regulatory compliance, and overall bring about better services for people who might otherwise be excluded.
Improved Outcomes
Progress is measured through self-assessment, and with the use of the Health Equality Framework, an outcomes based tool.
The VODG website gives many examples of good outcomes arising from the use of the Charter. It has also stimulated local meetings of services and agencies where good practice and progress can be shared and encouraged. The input of people using services is clearly seen as central to taking the inclusion work forward.
The Charter is also available on the VDOG website, and covers staff training, supporting people to access health care, use of health action plans, and most importantly listening to, and acting on, what people themselves say.
Policy in Scotland
The Health Charter has resonances with the Scottish Government policy on learning disability. This policy is given in the document 'Keys to Life'. It was introduced in 2013 as a ten year national development program aimed at similar equality and inclusion targets.
The recommendations of the Scottish policy included:
Health and commissioning of public services
Shift the culture and keeping safe
Break the stereotypes
People with profound and multiple learning disabilities
It is good to see these UK wide policy and practice initiatives being put in place. Community Care brought new perspectives on the care for previously excluded groups. The Heath Charter, 'Keys to Life' and similar initiatives are taking involvement and inclusion forward as points for us all to be aware of in our work and practice.

KIRITIMATI ISLAND, Kiribati — 0040 Island Time / 1040 Zulu: Wake up and shake off the cobwebs and head outside to begin preparations for balloon filling.
0045 Island Time / 1045 Zulu: Begin by placing the "balloon filling bag" (a nifty in-house, custom-made, vinyl sheet roughly 10'x7', folded onto itself with velcro to make a tube 7' long with a 10 'circumference) on the ground and spreading it out evenly. After much experimentation, I determined that to have the filled balloon be centered in the tube, we need to start with the empty balloon heavily offset to the non-filling side of the balloon. After some trial and error, a gap of 12'' between the tip of the balloon and the non-filling side edge of the canvas has proven ideal for me. It appears this tube has been calibrated to hold a 350g balloon at the correct volume to achieve 5m/s ascent rate. Ideal ascent rate is considered to be anywhere from 4.0–6.0m/s. Thus, the canvas tube serves as a guideline for filling the balloon to the proper volume of helium.
0100 Island Time / 1100 Zulu: Balloon should be nearly full and almost ready for flight. I've discovered that if I fill the balloon to the proper volume and let it sit for five minutes, it expands beyond the confines of the bag. So I've learned to stop and wait for thermal expansion to catch up. I overfilled one balloon and learned that we're not allowed to let some helium out. Once a balloon is overfilled, we have to dispose of it and fill a new one. Leslie and I wrote some messages on the overfilled balloon and released it without a sonde attached. As I've been prepping the balloon, Leslie is preparing the sonde to attach to the balloon — this involves reconditioning and calibrating the sonde with our ground met (weather) station and allowing enough time (5–10 minutes) with the sonde right next to our ground station to achieve and confirm a good calibration.
Alex, at right, during a balloon launch.
0114 Island Time / 1114 Zulu: We attach the sonde's "winder" (a spool of string about 100' that connects to the sonde) to the balloon and take the balloon (still in the tube), the sonde, and the winder to our "launch pad." At the launch pad, one person quickly pulls the velcro off the canvas tube, which nicely releases the balloon, while the other person holds onto the balloon with one hand and the sonde with the other. Sometimes as we let go of the balloon, the string on the winder gets stuck so we hold onto the sonde (with a death grip) and let the balloon go first. That way, if the winder gets stuck, as the balloon goes up, we still have a hold of the sonde and can pull the balloon back down to de-snag the string from the winder and then let it go again. If the winder appears to be letting the string out as it should, we let go of the sonde and the flight is in progress!
While I've been on Kiritimati Island, conditions have been fairly mild and most launches have been simple textbook launches. We've had a couple launches in 10 m/s winds, which makes everything much more difficult as the balloon gets very squirrelly. I have a lot of respect for the folks doing this from the RHB research ship, as their conditions are much more severe — including launching from a rocking and rolling platform covered with many obstacles. Here on the island, a group of ham radio operators visited for two weeks, and they created a few obstacles for us with their antennas and guy wires.
0115 Island Time / 1115 Zulu: Ideal balloon launch time. Shortly after launch, we take a couple minutes to make some visual observations of the sky and clouds around us and hopefully take pictures. I'm usually pretty excited at this point and eager to get back to the telemetry and see what's happening.
Here's a screen shot from one of our higher flights, showing the pressure, temperature and humidity plotted as the balloon ascended through our atmosphere.
0200 Island Time, 1200 Zulu: The balloon should be at height for our coordinated synoptic snapshot of the atmosphere — typically at about 170hPa (13.5KM) by this time. Some our longest flights were over 100 minutes, which takes us to 0340 Island time. After the balloon bursts, we then record the downward data as the sonde falls to the ground. Upon completion of flight up and down, we process the data and get it ready for upload to Boulder. Internet access on Kiritimati Island at the Captain Cook Hotel is only available from a small footprint of the lobby, which is about 5 minutes away from our launch site.
Here's a polar view of a balloon's trajectory as it has flown — this is the corresponding trajectory of the "PTU" plot above. I love seeing these plots and putting together theories on why the balloon did what it did.
0345 Island Time / 1345 Zulu: Ideally we've uploaded the data to Boulder so that it can be used for multiple model runs.
0400 Island Time / 1400 Zulu: After we've uploaded the data, we have some time to read and write email.
0430 Island Time / 1430 Zulu: Time for bed (again).
We repeat the entire process again at 1400 Island time (0000 Zulu).
A quick note about this schedule: I have traditionally not been a "napper" and have always been rather "light activated," so for me, sleep has been the most difficult part of this project. Getting between 1–4 hours of sleep at a time was not working, so I decided to forgo breakfasts and fight my "light activated" nature to hopefully get 5–6 hours of continuous sleep once a day and then supplement that with a nap after dinner.
Not being a meteorologist, this has all been new to me and very fascinating. Fortunately, I've had an expert meteorologist by my side who has been more than willing to answer all my questions. The first thing I learned about meteorologists is that they love to measure heights in pressure. That has taken some getting used to! Our up sondes have instruments that measure temperature, humidity and pressure as well as a GPS receiver that gives accurate information on position (used to calculate wind speed as well as other things). As the sonde goes up through our atmosphere, it collects this information and transmits it to our ground station (via a 403 Mhz signal) where it is time stamped, stored, and plotted on our display, even before it gets packaged and uploaded to Boulder. It's been fascinating discussing what all this means and the implications of it all. This has been an awesome experience for me.
I hope you enjoyed reading about my adventure!

Four things to know from Nunavut's legislature Thursday | CBC News Loaded
Four things to know from Nunavut's legislature Thursday
From wildlife, to a Nunavut university, to allowing alcohol sales on election day - a look at what happened in the legislature yesterday.
Seal skins, caribou management, a Nunavut university and bills were on the agenda
Jane Sponagle · CBC News · Posted: Oct 30, 2015 8:30 AM EDT | Last Updated: October 30, 2015
Nunavut's environment department has submitted a request to the Nunavut Wildlife Management Board recommending that it increase the total allowable harvest of Southampton Island caribou to 1,600. (Nathan Denette/Canadian Press)
Nunavut MLAs continued their busy fall sitting with an action-packed agenda on Thursday. It covered everything from wildlife to a Nunavut university to allowing alcohol sales on election day.
1. Seal skin tracking goes high tech?
The MLA for Iqaluit-Tasiluk wants to know how the Nunavut government plans to certify seal skins, now that furs harvested under the rules of the European Union exemption can be certified for sale in Europe.
"How are our seal skins going to be distinguished from other seal skins that are harvested around the world under different conditions, from traditional hunting methods?" asked George Hickes.
"Is there going to be a serial number? Is there going to be some type of a stamp? That's what I'm looking for."
The government will use a barcode system to keep track of the seal skins, said Environment Minister Johnny Mike in Inuktitut.
He said his department has been working closely with the federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans.
2. Southampton Island caribou population on the rise
Nunavut's environment department has submitted a request to the Nunavut Wildlife Management Board recommending that it increase the total allowable harvest of Southampton Island caribou to 1,600, up from the current limit of 1,000.
The Southampton herd, and its quota, are controversial. The quota put in place in 2012 was the first one imposed on Inuit.
"In May of this year, we conducted a caribou population survey on Southampton Island," Mike said on Thursday. "This new survey indicated that the number of caribou on the island had increased by around 40 per cent."
"This demonstrates yet again the effectiveness of our co-management model, which allows us to respond to concerns on the ground, and adapt our management regime in response to changing circumstances."
3. Is Nunavut ready for a university?
Joe Savikataaq, the MLA for Arviat South, questioned whether this is a good time to establish a university in Nunavut.
"We're all aware that the department of education faces a number of challenges in producing graduates who have the necessary educational levels and abilities to continue to post secondary education," Savikataaq said.
"There are also ongoing challenges and financial constraints to providing enough post-secondary education and training through Nunavut Arctic College and its cultural institute to fill current needs in Nunavut's labour force."
On Wednesday, the government awarded KPMG auditing firm the $246,269 contract to do a feasibility study on a university.
Education Minister Paul Quassa said it's apparent Nunavut needs a university.
"It is really going to benefit everyone in Nunavut," said Quassa in Inuktitut. "We say in the land claims agreement certain things we are going to follow and it will help us follow the land claims agreement, especially Article 23."
Article 23 of the Nunavut Land Claims Agreement is about Inuit employment in the government.
The feasibility study will try to answer a long list of questions, including whether there are enough students to demand a university, what infrastructure would be needed and what types of programming would meet the needs of Nunavummiut.
It could be done by early spring 2016.
4. Bills, bills, bills
Bill 9, an act to amend the Nunavut Election Act and the Plebiscites Act, passed its final reading Thursday, which means soon alcohol can be sold on election day in Nunavut.
Currently, alcohol is not allowed to be sold at bars or restaurants when polls are open on election day, but that prohibition will be repealed.
The bill also makes changes to the Plebiscites Act, before next year's anticipated plebiscite on the sale of municipal land.
It allows for the chief electoral officer to stay in office until reappointed or until a successor is appointed by the legislative assembly. The term for Nunavut's current chief electoral officer ends next month.
Bill 8, the Legislative Assembly Statutes Amendment Act, stops a member from accruing pensionable service if he or she is suspended.
It also extends the term of the languages commissioner from four years to five, to keep in line with the other independent officers of the assembly.
The bills will not become laws until they receive assent at the end of the sitting.

A heroic sled dog immortalized in bronze, Balto is a beloved fixture in the Park. Sculpted by Frederick G. R. Roth, Balto is a popular climbing statue among Central Park's youngest visitors—a fitting feature, given his backstory.
In January 1925, a diphtheria outbreak threatened the children of Nome, Alaska—some 700 miles from the medicine they needed in Anchorage. In a story that captivated the world, twenty sled dog teams relayed the medicine through blinding snow and subzero temperatures, with an intrepid Siberian husky named Balto completing the final 53-mile leg of the journey.
Balto's triumph earned him overnight celebrity and the artists of New York City were adamant about honoring him. Frederick G. R. Roth's sculpture was dedicated on December 17 of that same year, 1925. The real Balto, along with his musher Gunnar Kassen, attended the ceremony, making Balto the only Central Park statue to have its honoree present at the unveiling.
