15 A moderately fertile corn field produces more food for man than the best pasture of equal extent.
Though its corn cultivation requires much more labour, the surplus which remains after replacing the seed and maintaining the labour is much greater.
If a pound of meat was never supposed to be worth more than a pound of bread, this greater surplus would bring more profit for the farmer and more rent to the landlord.
This is universal in the rude beginnings of agriculture.
16 But the relative values of bread and meat are very different in the different periods of agriculture.
In its rude beginnings, the unimproved wilds are all abandoned to cattle.
Bread had the highest price due to high competition.
Ulloa says that 50 years ago at Buenos Aires, an ox was priced at 4 reals or 21 pence halfpenny sterling.
Oxen cost little more than the labour of catching them.
But everywhere, corn requires plenty of labour.
Labour in Argentina could not be very cheap because it lies on the Rio de Plata river.
It is the main artery from the Potosi silver mines in Bolivia to Europe.
In the advanced state of agriculture, there is more bread than meat.
It raises the price of meat higher than bread.
17 By extending cultivation, the unimproved wilds become insufficient to supply the demand for meat.
Much of the cultivated lands must be employed in rearing and fattening cattle.
The cattle bred on uncultivated land have the same price as those reared on improved land.
The proprietors of uncultivated land profit by cattle.
They raise their rent with the price of their cattle.
Less than a century ago, meat was cheaper than oatmeal-based bread in the highlands of Scotland.
The union opened the market of England to Scottish cattle.
Their ordinary price is now three times that at the beginning of the century.
The rents of many highland estates have tripled or quadrupled.
In Great Britain, a pound of the best meat is currently worth more than two pounds of the best white bread.
18 In the progress of improvement, the rent and profit of unimproved pasture come to be regulated by the rent and profit of improved pasture.
Corn is an annual crop.
Meat is a crop which requires four or five years to grow.
An acre of land will produce much less meat than corn.
The inferiority of the quantity of meat must be compensated by a superiority of price.
If it was more than compensated, more corn land would be turned into pasture.
If it was not compensated, pasture would be brought back into corn.
19 This equality between the rent and profit of land for grass (food for cattle) and for corn (food for humans) takes place only in the improved lands of a great country.
However, the rent and profit of grass in some local situations are much superior to the rent and profit from corn.
20 In a big town, the demand for milk and forage for horses raises the value of grass over corn.
However, this local rise in grass value cannot be communicated to distant lands.
21 Some countries are so populous that the whole territory has been insufficient for the subsistence of their inhabitants.
They imported corn from foreign countries.
22 Holland is currently in this situation, as was ancient Italy during Roman prosperity.
To feed ill, the third.
Tillage was very much discouraged in Italy because of the very low price of corn from the conquered provinces.
Those provinces were obliged to give 10% of their produce at 6-pence a peck to the republic as an alternative to taxes.
This low price sunk the price of the corn produced from Latium (the ancient territory of Rome) and discouraged its cultivation.
23 In an open country which mainly produces corn, grass land will frequently rent higher than any nearby corn field.
Grass land is convenient for the maintenance of the cattle for corn cultivation.
Its high rent is paid from the corn lands cultivated by those cattle.
This high rent is likely to fall if the neighbouring lands are completely enclosed.
The present high rent of enclosed land in Scotland is due to the scarcity of enclosures.
The advantage of enclosure is greater for pasture than for corn.
It saves the labour of guarding the cattle.
Those cattle feed better when undisturbed by their keeper or his dog.
24 The rent and profit of the common vegetable food of the people naturally regulates the rent and profit of pasture where there are no enclosures.
25 The use of turnips, carrots, cabbages, etc. as alternative cattle feed for grass, should reduce meat prices over bread.
In the London market, the current price of meat is lower than its price in the beginning of the last century, relative to bread.
26 In the appendix to the Life of Prince Henry, Doctor Birch listed meat prices commonly paid by that prince.
Four quarters of an ox weighing 600 pounds usually cost him 2,280 pence or 380 pence per 100 pounds.
Prince Henry died on November 6, 1612 at 19 years old.
27 In March 1763, there was a parliamentary inquiry into the causes of the high prices of provisions.
A Virginia merchant then had victualled his ships for 288-300 pence the hundred weight of beef, considered as the ordinary price.
In that dear year, he paid 324 pence.
28 Prince Henry paid 3.8 pence per pound of ox.
The choice pieces were sold for not less than 4.5 pence or 5 pence per pound by retail.
29 In the parliamentary enquiry in 1764, the price of the coarse pieces of the best beef was from 1.75-2.75 pence.
The choice pieces were 4 pence and 4.5 pence per pound.
This was 0.5 pence dearer than the same pieces sold in March.
But even this high price is still much cheaper than the ordinary retail price in prince Henry's time.
30 From 1600-1612, the average price of the best wheat at the Windsor market was 459.5 pence the quarter of nine Winchester bushels.
31 But from 1752-1764, the average price of the best wheat was 501.5 pence.
32 From 1600-1612, wheat was much cheaper and meat was much dearer than from 1752-1764.
33 In all great countries, most of the lands are employed in producing food for men, such as corn, or food for cattle, such as pasture.
The rent and profit of food-producing lands regulate the rent and profit of all other cultivated land.
If those other lands afforded less rent and profit than food-producing lands, they would be soon turned into corn or pasture.
If those other lands afforded more, the food-producing lands would soon be turned to the produce of those other lands.
34 Those new productions which require more expence for improvement, will afford more rent or profit than its former produce.
However, this superiority will seldom be more than a reasonable compensation for this superior expence.
35 In hop, fruit, and kitchen gardens, the landlord's rent and the farmer's profit are greater than those of corn or grass fields.
But its preparation is more expensive.
Hence a greater rent becomes due to the landlord of gardens.
It requires a more attentive and skilful management, giving more profit to the farmer.
The hop and fruit crops too are more precarious.
Its price must afford something like the profit of insurance.
Gardeners are not commonly over-recompensed.
Their delightful art is practised by so many rich people for amusement.
It is not so profitable because their rich customers can supply themselves.
36 The advantage the landlord derives from such improvements were never greater than what was sufficient to compensate their expence.
In ancient husbandry, a well-watered kitchen garden yielded the most valuable produce after the vineyard.
Democritus wrote about husbandry 2,000 years ago.
He was regarded as one of the fathers of husbandry.
He thought that kitchen gardens should not be enclosed.
He said the profit would not compensate the cost of a stone wall, while sun-baked bricks required constant repairs.
Columella, who wrote about Democritus, does not deny it.
He proposes a very frugal enclosure with a hedge of brambles and briars acting as a lasting and an impenetrable fence not commonly known in Democritus' time.
Palladius adopts the opinion of Columella which was recommended before by Varro.
In the judgment of those ancient improvers, the produce of a kitchen garden was little more than sufficient to pay the extraordinary expence of watering in warm countries.
In most of Europe, a kitchen garden is not presently supposed to deserve a better enclosure than that recommended by Columella.
In Great Britain and some northern countries, a wall is needed for the finer fruits.
Their price must be sufficient to pay the cost of building and maintaining that wall.
The fruit-wall that frequently surrounds the kitchen garden is a cost which its own produce could seldom afford.

Steal These Proxy Voting Guidelines
Fund boards seeking a model for their proxy voting guideline can steal a page from Calvert Funds (literally). The one catch is the voting guidelines will work best for funds following a socially conscious investing mandate.
Calvert, which manages some $9 billion in fund assets, is offering up its proxy voting guidelines on its Web site as a model to other fund firms. The Bethesda, Maryland-based fund firm first adopted the guidelines for its own funds in September of 2000. It just finished revising them in response to the SEC's new proxy disclosure rules.
"We�ve re-designed our Proxy Voting Guidelines to better promote and achieve this integration of good governance and social responsibility on the part of the companies we invest in on behalf of our shareholders," said Barbara J. Krumsiek, president & CEO of Calvert.
Krumsiek is encouraging other mutual funds and institutional investors to adopt the model laid out by Calvert in the hope that the guidelines will "encourage good governance and social responsibility on the part of corporations."
The guidelines contain detailed proxy-voting policies on board elections, composition and governance; executive compensation and stock ownership; mergers, acquisitions and takeovers; workplace, environment, and human rights issues; product safety and impact; indigenous peoples� rights; and community interactions.

How do I find a Virginia DUI Lawyer?
- If you are arrested for driving an automobile with a blood alcohol content over .08.
- If you are facing a second or third DUI arrest in Virginia or if you are arrested with a blood alcohol content over .15, which subjects you to much more severe punishment.
It is important that you realize that a DUI is not a traffic offense, but rather a criminal offense which can subject you to very high fines, jail time, or revocation of your driving privileges. Because of this, you must seek the counsel of a qualified Virginia DUI lawyer to protect your rights.
Your lawyer will need to know all about your DUI arrest. You should be ready to provide information about what you were doing before your arrest, the police's behavior during your sobriety test and arrest, and any events that occurred afterwards. Do not be reluctant to share all facts that you remember about your arrest, even if you think it will harm your case. Anything you say to your lawyer will be held to strict confidentiality and cannot be disclosed without your consent.
Virginia DUI lawyers often advertise their services throughout the state of Virginia. You probably have seen or heard these advertisements on television, radio, newspapers, or even mailed to your home. While these advertisements can sometimes provide you with a good source of names and locations of DUI firms, you should not rely on their message without further investigating the source. Instead, try to find non-biased information from sources that you can trust. If you are unsure where to start, contact the Virginia State Bar Association for help seeking a Virginia DUI lawyer.
The internet can provide a lot of information about Virginia DUI lawyers, but it can be difficult to sort through all of it while finding the helpful information. This website can provide you with some help in finding and comparing lawyers in your area. Use the search function at the top of the page or you can ask questions for legal professionals, who can help guide you through the process.
Virginia DUI lawyers often specialize in the practice of DUI defense, as it requires a high level of expertise and skill to properly defend DUI clients. DUI lawyers need to know how to challenge Breathalyzer tests, challenge the procedures of the police in their arrest and questioning of suspects, and must be knowledgeable of the criminal justice process. It is always recommended that you seek the help of a lawyer that has specialized in helping DUI clients and has had past success with them.
It will be important that you come prepared for your appointment with your Virginia DUI lawyer so that you can make the best use of his or her time. Your lawyer will need a lot of specific information before they can successfully defend your case. If you have any documents that involve your case, such as police reports, medical records, or paperwork sent form the court, you must bring this to your lawyer's attention. On top of this, you must be ready to describe the surrounding facts in specific detail. For example, you should be ready to give specific details about the places, times, and dates of important events in your case.
Bringing prepared questions can help both you and your lawyer get on the same page in regards to your legal representation. They can help you get the answers you need while also helping your lawyer better understand what you want to get out of his or her services.
Lawyers in Virginia must meet the same basic requirements before they are allowed to practice within the commonwealth. They must graduate from an accredited law school in the United States, pass the Virginia State Bar Examination, and then qualify to meet ethical standards. While these are the basic requirements for a lawyer to represent you and you should ensure your lawyer has these qualifications, you must also ensure that your lawyer has had experience in the field of DUI defense. DUI defense takes time to learn and practice, so do not entrust your case to a new lawyer or one who practices in a different area of the law.
When you are considering a lawyer, never rely on advertisements and claims made from the lawyer attempting to get you as a client. Instead, check with prior clients, other lawyers who work with the lawyer, or browse available information on the internet.
Quality Virginia DUI lawyers will have had previous experience defending clients from criminal charges and specifically specializing in DUI defense. They will know criminal procedures and have relationships with other professionals in the system, including judges, prosecuting lawyers, and other court workers. Ensure that your lawyer is a well-organized and professional individual who will not mist filing deadlines and will put your best case forward.
While almost all Virginia DUI lawyers are trustworthy professionals who want to help you through the criminal process, you must be aware of how they are representing you and wary of unreasonable fees and expenses. Your lawyer should not miss deadlines in filing your legal documents and should keep in contact with you to update you on the case. If you feel your lawyer may be acting in an unethical manner, contact the Virginia State Bar Association to further learn about your legal rights.
Virginia DUI lawyers can charge their legal fees in a few different ways. Always ensure that you fully understand the billing rates and structures before agreeing to representation. It is also very important that you get any agreements in writing from your lawyer.
One way a lawyer may charge for their services is by having a single flat fee. A flat fee is paid once at the beginning of representation and will cover all legal work that will be needed. These types of fees are usually used for less serious cases in which the lawyer can accurately predict how much work will be necessary.
Another form of fee collecting is the hourly rate. Hourly rates are just what they sound like, your lawyer will bill you based on how many hours spent working on your case. Most lawyers will require a retainer before representing you. A retainer is a required up front payment that will be deducted from as the lawyer spends time working on your case. Hourly fees can vary greatly depending on the lawyer's experience and field of practice, so always be aware of what a good rate should be in your area.
What are your fees and what services do I receive for them?
What are the chances of successfully defending my case?
Can we come to a plea arrangement for my case?
How long do you think this case will take?
When can I contact you for updates about my case?
When will you contact me to inform me of developments?
When you are arrested for a DUI, it is highly important that you seek the help of a DUI lawyer. Virginia has very strict laws when it comes to DUI offenses. Just for the first offense, you can be subject to up to one year in prison, up to $2,500 in fines, a mandatory alcohol program, revocation of your driving license for up to one year, and required increases in your insurance premium. These consequences can be severe but a good DUI lawyer can work with you and the court to get them lessened. Therefore, you should never hesitate to hire a DUI lawyer to defend you.
There are many qualities that are needed by all DUI lawyers. Virginia's criminal procedures are slightly different depending on the region of the commonwealth you are in, so it is important that your DUI lawyer is familiar with local rules and customs in your defense. They must also have strong knowledge of both Virginia law and the constitutional protections that all criminal defendants are afforded in the United States. Finally, DUI lawyers must have strong negotiation skills, as they will be working with prosecuting lawyers and judges to try to get you the best possible deal without going to trial. Consider all of these factors when selecting your Virginia DUI lawyer.

War and Revolution
Sunday 15th February 2015 at 3.00pm
Andris Nelsons conductor
Eleanor Dennis soprano
Simon Callow speaker
Elgar: Polonia, Op.76 13′
Elgar: Sospiri, Op.70 5′
Elgar: Voix dans le Désert, Op. 77: for Speaker, Soprano, & Orchestra 11′
Shostakovich: Symphony No. 11 (The Year 1905) 60′
War, protest, and a great nation on the brink of revolution: officially, Shostakovich based his mighty Eleventh Symphony on the events of 1905 – but this roof-raising blockbuster of a symphony is still thrillingly relevant today. Back in England, Elgar did current affairs a little differently. Andris Nelsons explores some of the deeply moving music that Britain's greatest composer wrote in response to the First World War.
Review by John Quinn, SeenandHeard, MusicWeb:
… "This movement is all about tension and atmosphere; it's a vast curtain-raiser to the tragedy that is to unfold. It's essential that a mood of glacial stillness and tension is established from the outset and then maintained. Nelsons and his players succeeded in this, not least in maintaining the tension. In the second movement, 'The Ninth of January' the brutal dispersal of the crowd is depicted. Much of the music is vivid and graphic with Shostakovich calling on the large brass section and the substantial percussion battery – a timpanist and seven colleagues. After a vicious fugal passage for strings, bitingly articulated here, the music reaches a massive climax; quite rightly, Nelsons didn't hold back on the decibel levels here This climax was a real assault on the ears but it made all the more effective the sudden cut-off where Shostakovich reverts to the glacial stillness of the symphony's opening – except that now we hear an appalled stillness after the brutality.
The third movement, 'Eternal Memory' is an extended lament for the fallen innocents. It begins with a long, poignant theme played by all the violas. The CBSO viola section excelled here, playing with great expression while Nelsons exerted great care over the moulding of the music. (Rightly, the viola section was singled out for applause en masse at the end of the performance.) This movement, an intense elegy, was played with great eloquence by the CBSO. There was driving urgency in the finale, 'The Alarm Bell'. Nelsons inspired playing of tremendous bite. The decibel level is consistently high for much of this movement though I can't help feeling that the composer's invention is at its weakest here. Yet another immense climax gives way to what is arguably the most poignant moment in the work. Shostakovich returns once more to the material with which he'd begun the symphony nearly an hour ago and from it rises a long, deeply felt cor anglais solo. This horribly exposed solo was played with great distinction by Jane Marshall. As the music picks up once more in vehemence there's a swirling undercurrent on the bass clarinet. I've never heard this brought out so strongly as it was here and the effect of hearing this threatening material along with pounding drums was to emphasise, for me, the darkness in the score. The symphony achieves a thunderous conclusion but the music is not celebratory in tone. Instead, enigmatic as ever, Shostakovich sets up a major-key/minor-key clash, emphasised by the dissonant clamour of two sets of tubular bells. No empty revolutionary triumph is depicted here.
One member of the audience, perhaps deceived, started to applaud immediately but, mercifully, stopped at once while Nelsons and the orchestra held the moment, allowing the bell tones to decay naturally. Then, and only then, was applause for this electrifying performance justified.
The applause was sustained and enthusiastic and that was as it should be for this was a concert hat reminded us once more what a fine partnership there is between Andris Nelsons and the CBSO. We should make the most of it while it lasts."

The goals of this paper are to provide an introduction to vector, exterior and Clifford algebra and to present a method for performing Clifford algebra calculations efficiently using representation theory. Vectors, exterior algebra and other mathematical and historical foundations of Clifford algebra are introduced. Matrix representations of Clifford algebras are elucidated. The computation of rotations using Clifford representations of spin groups is discussed, and a few of the relevant scientific and engineering applications of the Clifford and exterior algebras are noted throughout.


From March to October the Ocoee River comes alive with whitewater enthusiasts from around the world who journey to shoot the world-class rapids in rafts, canoes, and kayaks. Outdoor adventure writer Kim Urquhart calls it "a paddler's paradise …loved for its size and power, constant flow rate and continuous waves and holes".
The Class III and IV rapids that highlight this river begin just west of Ducktown, TN. TheOcoee Whitewater Center is a federally operated put-in that is used by both commercial companies and individuals. In 2002 nearly 300,000 people made the journey from this site to the take-out more than 5 miles further down the river.
Flowing out of Lake Blue Ridge as the Toccoa River, the name changes to Ocoee at the Tennessee border. In the early 1900's the East Tennessee Power Company built two dams along the river to provide power to its customers. Alongside the river they also built a flume that would divert the river's water. The flume began at Ocoee Dam # 2 and followed the course of today's whitewater run. Water would plummet 250 feet down the flume over its 5 mile course and its power was formidable, but the Ocoee River was dry.
One of the reasons for needing the dam was the relocation of Alcoa Aluminum to Blount County, Tennessee. The company needed tremendous amounts of power to make the alumininum. When the TVA acquired the Ocoee dams in the late 1930's, engineers admired the unusual means by which the company produced power and duplicated the effort in another dam, Ocoee # 3. In 1976 the TVA closed the flume from #2 for safety concerns.It was at this point that outdoor enthusiasts discovered the Ocoee, and by the time the Tennessee Valley Authority wanted to reopen the flume, an industry had risen. To benefit the recreational users of the Ocoee, the TVA agreed to let the water run in the old riverbed every Saturday. Today, this exciting course is know around the world thanks to 1996 Summer Olympics, which held a number of events on the river.
Olympic Events were held on the upper Ocoee River. They ended near the Ocoee Whitewater Center, and this section is generally not open to the public. After the center is the Middle Ocoee, a five mile section of the river from the center just west of Ducktown to a remote take-out point in the Ocoee Gorge. In this five miles the river falls some 250 feet across some Class IV+ rapids. The Middle Ocoee River is significantly calmer than the Upper Ocoee, although there are some good drops. Under normal conditions there are no Class V rapids on the river, however, at times when waterflow is greater than normal, some of the Class IV rapids become Class V.


Michael and Darren were married on a very chilly day in October. Minnesota weather can be very tricky any time of the year and this was no exception.
Q1: Tell us about your wedding! What was the inspiration behind your day? Did you have a specific theme, style or color palette? Did you incorporate any cultural or religious traditions in any part of your day?
A1: After we got engaged we immediately decided we wanted a fall wedding. It was probably the easiest and most aligned decision we made about the whole wedding! I love October and Darren didn't care as long as it was during the fall, so we went with it! We didn't really have a specific style other than "We like fall leaves," so we made sure to incorporate those everywhere. We used a "sweet fall" color palate, of while navy and burgundy/wine were the main colors. These colors were supported by standard fall colors such as orange, yellow, red, peach, and touches of brown.
Q2: Let's talk wedding decor. How did you decorate your space for the ceremony and the reception? Was any part of the decor DIY?
A2: The ceremony was in the hotel ballroom with wall and ceiling draping done by the venue that had white lights in them. The Best Woman's fiance made the wooden arch for us, which we put flowers on, which were created by our florist. We had a unity candle ceremony and the candles had leaves in them, made by a shop out of California. One of our Groomswomen also made an "unplugged ceremony" sign for us.Our reception was all made from pieces that were purchased and put together. We aren't very crafty, so that's about as DIY as we got. Our centerpieces were pillar candles in glass vases of varying sizes with brown and burgundy wreaths wrapped around them. When then had a wide assortment of falls leaves sprinkled across the table, all on top of a navy table runner. The Best Woman/s fiance also made our wood table number signs, which matched our arch. The dessert table had glass vases of varying shapes and sizes filled with candy. There were navy and burgundy take away bags for the candy. The donuts, provided by Glam Doll, had sprinkles that match our theme colors and were arranged and decorated by them. A Groomswoman made the flavor signage for the donut table so it would stick with our fall theme.The guestbook and memorial tables also had leaves on them, complete with pictures in dark wood frames to again match the rest of the wood in the space.
Q3: What were the florals like in your wedding? Did you use flowers in any of your design elements like the bridal bouquets, centerpieces or ceremony backdrop? Did they play an important part in the overall style of your wedding?
A3: The flowers we used played a more important part during the ceremony and not as much in the reception. Everyone in the wedding party either held flowers or had them pinned. Important family members either had them pinned or on their wrists. Our arch was covered in flowers that matched what the Groomswomen were holding.
Q4: Did you personalize the day in any way (food trucks, guest entertainment etc.)? What were some of your favorite parts of your wedding?
A4: The Glam Doll donuts were a huge personal choice. We really love them, so we had to have them. We also love pizza, which is why we chose to have that as our late night snack. The ceremony was somewhat created by us. Our officiant sent us two different ceremonies and we more or else combined them and added in some other things to get to the exact type of ceremony we wanted to. Our favorite part of the wedding (or than getting married) was the party at the end of it all. Being able to celebrate, dance, and laugh with everyone we hold so close was truly the perfect way to wrap up over a year and a half of planning.
Q5: Let's talk fashion. How did you both choose your wedding day look? Describe the looks in detail.
A5: We both knew we wanted to wear suits and we knew we wanted them to be dark, but not black, since it was going to be a fall wedding. We matched from head to toe. We had cognac shoes that got a little more brown at the tip, burgundy ties, and burgundy pocket squares. All of this was tied together with our dark gray suits, which also had dark gray vests. We both wore white shirts and brown belts. We had matching boutonnieres that were a single burgundy rose with fall foliage behind them.
Q6: How did you meet? Tell us about the proposal.
A6: We met at a party at the U of M and hit it off before the group left to go out to the club. That night we danced and talked for a while and the rest is history! The proposal happened in Central Park. I, Michael, had never been to NYC before and it'd always been a dream for me to visit. Once we booked our tickets, I knew I wanted to make it even more special and ask Darren to marry me there. I devised a plan to ask him while we had a picnic in Central Park. While we were eating I kept trying to talk down some pre-defined paths I'd thought out that would lead into me popping the question, but Darren kept batting them away, making it harder for me to segue into what I wanted to ask. Eventually I gave up and just got on a knee and asked him to marry me. He said yes and we kissed. After we kissed, I sat back down and noticed a woman walking toward us. She walked up to us crying and asked, "Did what I think happened really just happen?!" and we said yes and showed her Darren's ring. She hugged us both and told us that love is precious and something to hold on to. She asked if she could take our picture, we said yes, but then she took out her phone to take our picture on it, which was surprising to us (we thought she was going to take one of us on our phone!). We did get a picture of us on our phone after she took it on hers though. Once pictures were done, she told us to, "Go infect the world with our love." and that's exactly what we plan to do each and every day we're together.
A7: The most anticipated moment of the day was turning the corner and walking down the aisle together. We'd spent a year and a half planning and answering many, many questions about our day and how the planning was going, etc. and it was all leading up to that exact moment. The moment we walked in in front of everyone we loved and headed down the aisle to start our future together.
Q8: Do you have any wedding planning or marriage advice that you'd like to share with other couples planning their day?
A8: When it comes to planning, it's so important to soak it all in. It's stressful and, yes, sometimes even annoying to have to deal with it all, but when it's done it's done and you will never have that experience again. Take it all in, enjoy it, don't fight, laugh, and treat each other as equals. It's important to make sure both people are represented on this big day.

A new book raises a ruckus by linking intelligence to genetics and race

Since Herrnstein died in September, Murray is facing the new round of uproar alone. Not that he's sheepish. After Reaganites discovered his 1984 book Losing Ground, which said poverty programs actually worsened the problems of the poor, he became the sociologist liberals loved to hate. More recently he introduced himself into the debate on welfare reform by insisting that unwed motherhood, not joblessness, was the key problem. His solution was to get rid of welfare altogether. Murray says when he and his co-author started work on The Bell Curve, "((Herrnstein)) said to me, 'You know, we're the only two people in America who can write this book because they've already said everything about us they can think of.' "
Maybe not. In this week's issue of the New Republic, which includes a Murray-Herrnstein article that summarizes their views, an accompanying roundup of their critics describes the theories of the two men as "indecent, philosophically shabby and politically ugly," and as "pseudoscientific racism." Racism? asks Murray. "I am absolutely baffled by the overwhelming tendency of people to say we are pushing the genetic explanation," he says. "We are staying smack dab in the middle of the scientific road regarding nature and nurture. For us to say that IQ is 60% heritable actually gives us more problems with people who say we have erred on the other side. The best studies tend to give higher estimates."
Which is a view that may just shed more darkness where obscurity is already the rule. While few scientists would argue that genes have nothing to do with IQ, fewer still are ready to conclude just how genes fit in. Specialists in the intelligence field complain that Herrnstein and Murray all but ignore what is known about brain development before and after birth. "When it comes to science, the book could have been written a hundred years ago," complains Harvard professor of education Howard Gardner. A pregnant mother's nutrition or drug abuse can have a crucial impact on her child's eventual intellectual capability -- which could go far to explain the lower IQs of inner-city children. After birth the brain's higher intellectual centers show explosive growth. Around eight or nine connections between neurons in the cerebral cortex are pruned back. The rule that governs this elimination is simple: use the connection or lose it. Children without a rich early life exposure to reading or numbers may be at a disadvantage that can register later as diminished intellect.
"Most people think that when you say IQ is genetic, you're saying you can't change it. That isn't what it means," insists Christopher Jencks, the liberal social scientist. "If you say breast cancer is hereditary, it tells you nothing about whether you can cure breast cancer." Craig Ramey, a researcher at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, studied poor children who were enrolled as infants in a multiyear program that provided them and their mothers with health care and a stimulating learning environment. Many of them developed and sustained normal IQs of around 100, while those in a control group were as much as 20 points lower. The Bell Curve describes Ramey's Abecedarian Project as provocative but inconclusive and leaves it at that.

Seaside Summer Concert Series brings music under the stars every Wednesday
One of the most popular outdoor events along the Emerald Coast, the Seaside Summer Concert Series, returns to the Seaside Amphitheater on Wednesdays beginning June 1st through August 10th. For eleven weeks this summer music lovers can enjoy a variety of exciting live musical performances in the heart of 30A and the Beaches of South Walton. The Seaside Summer Concert Series is free and open to all and a great way to experience some of today's up-and-coming artists amongst the beautiful backdrop of Seaside.
All performances begin at 7 p.m. and free parking is available around Central Square, Quincy Circle and Smolian Circle. Below are the bands scheduled to perform:
Andy Davis Aug. 10
August 10: Andy Davis – The venue has changed to the Meeting Hall Theatre. The Merchants of Seaside close out the 2011 Seaside Summer Concert Series with another amazing performer, Nashville's own Andy Davis. Don't miss Andy onstage in the Amphitheater on Wednesday, August 10th at 7PM.
Andy Davis's smart and seductive blue-eyed soul music weds indelible hooks to sly, incisive lyrics, creating songs that sound like newly minted pop-soul classics.
A Louisiana native, Davis released his first album, "Thinks of Her," in 2004. "Thinks of Her" struck a chord on college campuses, selling out its initial print run. The original pressing of the CD — with Davis's hand-written lyrics and stenciled cover art — became a collector's item within months of its release.
In 2005, the remastered rerelease of "Thinks of Her" gained Davis national exposure and brought him to the attention of legendary music producer Mitchell Froom (Paul McCartney, Sheryl Crow, Elvis Costello). The result of their collaboration was "Let the Woman," a sophisticated, sonically adventurous album that ignited a bidding war. Barnes and Noble won the exclusive rights to distribute "Let the Woman" online and and in their stores all over the world. The album's single, "Brown Eyes," became a staple on AAA radio stations nationwide, and "Let the Woman" became a #4 bestseller.
Davis toured extensively in support of "Let the Woman", both headlining and opening for Colbie Caliat, Jakob Dylan, Mat Kearney, Howie Day, and NEEDTOBREATHE.
The following year, Davis became a prominent member of Ten Out of Tenn, a critically acclaimed collective of Nashville singer/songwriters who joined forces for a collaborative tour that was documented in the award-winning documentary film, "Any Day Now."
In 2009, Davis returned to Nashville to record his latest EP, "New History," which was featured in — and inspired — a recent episode of ABC's "Grey's Anatomy."
A thoroughly contemporary artist raised on old-school rock and soul, Andy Davis's infallible ear for hooks — for a well-turned phrase — and for the often irregular heartbeat of human relationships continues to engage longtime fans and win him new ones.
Seaside offers up an exciting lineup of musicians scheduled through August, so stay tuned for more updates in the coming weeks. All events are made possible by the arts and entertainment fee collected by The Merchants of Seaside.

Importance: Effective therapies for patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are needed, and clinical trial data have demonstrated that low-dose dexamethasone reduced mortality in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 who required respiratory support.
Objective: To estimate the association between administration of corticosteroids compared with usual care or placebo and 28-day all-cause mortality.
Design, setting, and participants: Prospective meta-analysis that pooled data from 7 randomized clinical trials that evaluated the efficacy of corticosteroids in 1703 critically ill patients with COVID-19. The trials were conducted in 12 countries from February 26, 2020, to June 9, 2020, and the date of final follow-up was July 6, 2020. Pooled data were aggregated from the individual trials, overall, and in predefined subgroups. Risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment Tool. Inconsistency among trial results was assessed using the I2 statistic. The primary analysis was an inverse variance-weighted fixed-effect meta-analysis of overall mortality, with the association between the intervention and mortality quantified using odds ratios (ORs). Random-effects meta-analyses also were conducted (with the Paule-Mandel estimate of heterogeneity and the Hartung-Knapp adjustment) and an inverse variance-weighted fixed-effect analysis using risk ratios.
Exposures: Patients had been randomized to receive systemic dexamethasone, hydrocortisone, or methylprednisolone (678 patients) or to receive usual care or placebo (1025 patients).
Main outcomes and measures: The primary outcome measure was all-cause mortality at 28 days after randomization. A secondary outcome was investigator-defined serious adverse events.
Results: A total of 1703 patients (median age, 60 years [interquartile range, 52-68 years]; 488 [29%] women) were included in the analysis. Risk of bias was assessed as "low" for 6 of the 7 mortality results and as "some concerns" in 1 trial because of the randomization method. Five trials reported mortality at 28 days, 1 trial at 21 days, and 1 trial at 30 days. There were 222 deaths among the 678 patients randomized to corticosteroids and 425 deaths among the 1025 patients randomized to usual care or placebo (summary OR, 0.66 [95% CI, 0.53-0.82]; P < .001 based on a fixed-effect meta-analysis). There was little inconsistency between the trial results (I2 = 15.6%; P = .31 for heterogeneity) and the summary OR was 0.70 (95% CI, 0.48-1.01; P = .053) based on the random-effects meta-analysis. The fixed-effect summary OR for the association with mortality was 0.64 (95% CI, 0.50-0.82; P < .001) for dexamethasone compared with usual care or placebo (3 trials, 1282 patients, and 527 deaths), the OR was 0.69 (95% CI, 0.43-1.12; P = .13) for hydrocortisone (3 trials, 374 patients, and 94 deaths), and the OR was 0.91 (95% CI, 0.29-2.87; P = .87) for methylprednisolone (1 trial, 47 patients, and 26 deaths). Among the 6 trials that reported serious adverse events, 64 events occurred among 354 patients randomized to corticosteroids and 80 events occurred among 342 patients randomized to usual care or placebo.
Conclusions and relevance: In this prospective meta-analysis of clinical trials of critically ill patients with COVID-19, administration of systemic corticosteroids, compared with usual care or placebo, was associated with lower 28-day all-cause mortality.

Review of Anna Novitzky, "Led Astray", Luna Station Quarterly 31: Read online. Reviewed by Sara L. Uckelman.
The problem with surreptitiously reading stories when you're ostensibly at an academic conference and supposedly paying attention to the speaker is that when you get a story like "Led Astray", people start looking at you when you giggle and the speaker has said nothing amusing. But I challenge anyone to read this story without laughing. It is self-consciously meta but that is part of what makes it so funny. The best part, though, is the view of AI/SF/robots that it gives us. Too many stories take the "robots will be the death of us, when they get too smart" path; this one goes down on a different path, the path of "any sufficiently intelligent being will develop a sense of humor." I simply loved it.


From hosting two well-attended F1 races per year to one sparsely attended event every two seasons, where did it all go so wrong for Germany in the space of just a few years?
In a single number, the German Grand Prix weekend encapsulated everything that is wrong with Formula 1's marketing and, equally, that of other international motorsport series. That number is 57,000, and represents not only the race day attendance last Sunday, but exactly half the attendance at the very same Hockenheim circuit, run on the very same track layout, a decade ago.
The 2006 and '16 grands prix were even held on virtually the same date, give or take a week, in Germany's traditional window. But if - and F1 is IF spelt backwards - a great deal of thought went into this year's calendar slot, then in the process it was clearly overlooked that within a three-week period, Germany was slated to host as many high-profile motorsport events.

Friends of The Earth's first edition of Why Women Will Save the Planet, featuring Women's Environmental Network (WEN) director Kate Metcalf, highlighted that we can only turn around the terrible effects of excessive energy consumption, polluted air and absence of Nature in our societies if women are empowered.
The book showed just how critical gender equality is to environmental sustainability.
Green businesses and activists alike have been eagerly anticipating the second edition, which was launched this month (13 March) at a sold-out event, the Women's Environmental Network Forum.
In association with Friends of the Earth, the launch included a screening of the film Feed the Green – Feminist Voices for the Earth and a panel discussion and Q&A that explored issues such as the role of women's empowerment in creating sustainable cities, what an intersectional feminist and sustainable city might look like and how we could have a gender-based approach to urban climate policy.
Emphasising that the economic growth of the world's leading cities does not need to equate to a dystopian future, the book demonstrates how societies can be transformed into powerhouses of wellbeing and environmental sustainability – if we empower women.
A collaboration between C40 and Friends of the Earth, the book showcases pioneering city mayors, key voices in the environmental and feminist movements and academics. C40 Cities is a global network of the largest and greenest cities across the planet and has itself launched Women4Climate, an initiative to promote and support women as climate leaders.
WEN is the only UK organisation that exists to make the links between women's health and wellbeing and environmental issues. It works for environmental justice using feminist principles.
The WEN Forum is a quarterly symposium with speakers discussing topics of the moment. It's always inspiring, topical – and sometimes also controversial!

San Francisco- and Chennai-headquartered cloud-based customer service software provider Freshdesk Inc has launched a customer relationship management (CRM) solution designed for corporate sales teams.
The product, Freshsales, will feature sales functions including lead, deal and account management; email and phone integration, user behaviour tracking as well as lead scoring and reporting on a single product, doing away with the task of multiple integrations onto a CRM platform. The mobile app version of the solution will be available on iOS and Android.
This is the fourth addition to Freshdesk's suite of products that includes its flagship product, Freshdesk, a cloud-based software solution that allows organisations to support customers through email, phone, websites, forums and social media; Freshservice, a service desk and IT service management solution; and Hotline.io, an in-app support and engagement platform for mobile-first businesses.
"As a fast-growing SaaS business, we needed a solution that empowered our sales team with context-based on user activity, prioritised leads based on engagement and enhanced sales representative productivity," said Girish Mathrubootham, CEO of Freshdesk. "For years, our sales team struggled to integrate all the products we needed into one of the leading CRM tools  but in the end, it was still just an expensive manual dumping ground for data," he added.
Founded in 2010 by former Zoho employees Girish Mathrubootham and Shan Krishnasamy, Freshdesk is a SaaS-based startup that provides cloud-based customer engagement solutions for companies.
The firm, which is backed Tiger Global, Accel Partners and Google Capital, has raised $94 million to date. In April last year, it had raised $50 million (Rs 314 crore) in a Series E round of funding from its three existing investors, Tiger Global (which led the round) Accel Partners and Google Capital.
Freshdesk has also made five acquisitions over the last year. In April this year, it had acquired Faridabad-based Memeticlabs Technologies Pvt Ltd that operates social media listening and analytics platform Airwoot for an undisclosed amount.
In February, it had acquired Pune-based visual collaboration platform Framebench for an undisclosed sum. In December last, Freshdesk had acquired in-app customer support platform Konotor for an undisclosed amount.
In October last, it had acquired social recommendations platform Frilp. In August last, it had acquired video chat software 1Click.io for an undisclosed amount.
The startup counts 3M, Honda, Bridgestone, Hugo Boss, University of Pennsylvania, Toshiba and Cisco among its clients.

In the months since my last message, we've all had to adjust to a different way of living our lives; of going about our day. For some of us this has meant new opportunities, but for many, probably for most of us, it has meant digging deep into our reserves of resilience. For me, time with family and with mates has been more important than ever, as we all try to hang on to whatever "normal" we have access to.
Our Old Boys' calendar, optimistically planned in late 2019 and early 2020, has been smashed, but this has forced us to look at new ways to connect with each other. We went online for our first Virtual Professional Networking Event for Science and Technology earlier this year (big shout out to the inimitable Arjuna Kumarasuriyar '98, Michael Milford '98 and James Chin Moody '93 for making it unforgettable), and we moved our Law networking event online at the last minute as another COVID-19 cluster threatened (thanks to Scott McLeod QC '84, Simon Tolhurst '87, James Green '03, Oscar Higgins '15, Cam McLeod '88 and Stuart Rees '79).
The NSL Strava Club is growing. I strongly encourage you all to think about joining. Whether you're training for an ultramarathon or a walk around the block, the club is a way to connect with each other. You never know, you might find an old mate who runs, cycles, swims, rows or walks nearby that you haven't caught up with in a while. Go to strava.com, join up (it's free), set the privacy controls you can live with and ask to join the NSL club. Get out there and get active. In the next few months we'll be hosting some events through the club (current plans include a 5km run/walk, 10km run/walk, and a river loop community ride).
Brisbane Grammar Connect is also growing and we now have 527 registered members. For those who haven't heard about this yet, it is our new professional mentoring and networking platform. You can join using your email, Facebook or LinkedIn profile, and nominate which levels of participation you're happy with (seeking/offering help, seeking/offering mentoring). There is no substitute for hard work, but sometimes advice and support from someone that shares your values can make a massive impact in helping you achieve your potential.
We're going to The Triffid, John Collins' iconic live music venue for our 2020 Annual Reunion Dinner (thanks JC). Changes to rules for social gatherings have meant several different versions of an annual dinner have been planned and then shelved. Cam Feltham '86 has been key to developing a new concept for our Annual Reunion Dinner, "Talent on Tap". Guys who have dreamed of taking the stage will have an open mic and a backing band. You'll be glad to hear that I'll be kicking back with a few cold ones. I hope to see you there. Tickets are limited due to social distancing rules, so get in quick.
Lastly, there have been some recent changes to our committee. Stephen Bizzell '84 was elected to the BGS Board of Trustees this year and is stepping down from the committee. I'm very grateful for his contributions to the committee and for his support and friendship. Simon Tolhurst '87 and Adam Franklin '97 have recently joined the Committee. Tolly has been a big contributor to the BGS Old Boy community, and has just finished serving on the BGS P&F Association as vice president for the past five years. He's a lot of fun to argue with, and will be an asset for the committee. Adam is one of those guys who I swear has more than 24 hours in his day. He brings special expertise in digital marketing and strategy, he's a great communicator, and has built a big reputation through his company Bluewire Media. Thanks to Bizz, Tolly and Adam for your commitment to our community.
Hope to catch up at The Triffid, or to see you on Strava.
Michael Forrest
BGS Old Boys' Association President

Analogue to booking.com to be created in Georgia
12.10.2014. In the near future, a website similar to an international tourist web portal booking.com will appear in Georgia, which will give visitors the opportunity to book accommodation before arrival in the country.
This initiative belongs to the recently established Georgian Hotel and Restaurant Federation.
Experts welcome the establishment of such an association and believe that it should play the role of mediator between the government and the tourist industry. According to them, in order tourism business to develop successfully, it is necessary to streamline the tax system and labor laws.
"The government should look at private business as a partner and not an enemy or a cash cow. The Hotel and Restaurants should actively work in this direction, "- experts say.
According to the Federation, its function is to be a bridge between the government and the tourist industry - in particular, in their opinion, a classification of hotels and equal attention is required to large branded hotels as well as to small home-like hotels and hostels.
One of the founders of the Association Shalva Alaverdashvili says that there is a need to improve the quality of services in the tourism sector.
"The situation on the market shows that certain frames should be introduced for hotels and restaurants. Currently, the group of experts is working on minimum standards which will be mandatory - for example,the creation of an environment for people with disabilities, the availability of emergency exits, etc. We also intend to conduct special training for staff retraining on international grants in order owners of small hotels not to spend money on this,"- he notes.
Currently, the Georgian Restaurant and Hotel Federation includes up to 70 hotels and restaurants.

Guests indulge in the chefs' imaginative desserts before the first course is even served, then cast votes for their favorite sweet concoction. The winning chef is announced at the end of the evening with the top three chefs receiving medals.
Gala proceeds will continue to lay the foundation for all girls in Southern Nevada to become tomorrow's female leaders. In addition to funding scholarships, proceeds enable the organization to reach girls in all demographics and areas of the community as well as expanding upon current programming such as Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), social values and financial literacy.

Q: Set up invocation of browserify by sbt in build.sbt so that dependencies are bundled on compilation The scenario, I'm building with Java Play Framework for play-java. I have a dependency that babel compiles to a nasty output line of "var sth = require("sth")".
Apparently browserify is the only hope of getting this nodejs style inclusion to work in the browser. But I don't want to manually call browserify from the CLI on every new compilation. So I found this snippet https://www.toptal.com/scala/using-scala-js-with-npm-and-browserify that is closer to home, but his case was for Scalajs.
So how can I replicate his solution in my scenario?

A: You can execute browserify from sbt by creating a task that executes during the Asset source generation phase.
See this seed project as an example, take a look at the build.sbt for how to create the task: https://github.com/maximebourreau/play-reactjs-es6-seed
Note they deprecated the <+= for appending to the list so you can change the sourceGenerators line to:
sourceGenerators in Assets +=  browserifyTask.taskValue
Note this is just executing the browserify binary in the node_modules directory so you have to npm install browserify and running the bablify task but you could change what tasks it executes.
It has also hardcoded the file to browerify app/assets/javascripts/main.jsx. You could change this to be a settingKey as well.
The source generators will run anytime you change a file that is in the sourceDirectory in Assets.
Hope this helps.

From the Flight Deck: We the Pilots
By Kevin Dingman
"Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle." – Abraham Lincoln
For the Pilots of Owner-Flown, Cabin-Class Aircraft. That's what it says there on the cover, right under Twin & Turbine. Conversationally, we all just say "T&T." It's a boutique periodical for an elite and select few. Well, a select fifty-thousand or so that, as Honest Abe inferred, "have learned to hustle and to whom things have come." You've told me that you are proud to carry it in the plane and to display it at the office. We who help put it together are grateful; thank you.
Having pride in how far you've come in your piloting career and airplane ownership is a well-deserved acknowledgement of ability and hard work… and maybe some luck. None of the magazine's sub-title description of you, your airplane or your accomplishments are taken for granted by the advertisers, publisher, the editor or We the Writers. Like our national freedom, our aviation freedoms weren't easy to obtain or maintain. Perhaps a prideful raising of our chin and a contemplative sigh is all right as we celebrate our independence this July.
The words in our magazine's title were chosen with deliberation and purpose. "Pilot" is used to denote leadership, authority, control, diligence and trust; to guide and direct; to captain and shepherd – characteristics not unlike those of the brave souls that signed The Declaration of Independence. Not many folks are pilots and, if you read the other aviation magazines, you know that our numbers have dwindled. As far as the general population goes, they stand at the airport fence in awe, camera in hand, wishing they were you.
It's not "We the People", or "When, in the course of human events,"; our cover boldly proclaims: For The Pilots. That's you, and the position you hold when in The Seat. You're not part of the cabin crew or a chauffeured passenger and you're not at the airport fence taking pictures; you are the picture. You're not the financier, mechanic, baggage handler, fueler, scheduler or cleaner, although some, even all, of these titles may apply before you take the left seat and after you shut down. Most of the time we effortlessly shift between these hats and are pretty good at managing all of them. The task-compartmentalizer in you is part of what makes you a good pilot and helps you to engage laser-like focus when needed.
Slapped
"Aviation in itself is not inherently dangerous. But, to an even greater degree than the sea, it is terribly unforgiving of any carelessness, incapacity or neglect." – Captain A. G. Lamplugh, circa early 1930's
Sometimes while in The Seat, the mission requires the undistracted ability to wear just one hat: that of the PIC. Like many professions, this one requires an ongoing commitment to education, training and practice in order to properly execute the responsibilities. Unlike most professions, however, if we display even the slightest carelessness, incapacity or neglect, to an even greater degree than the sea, it's not uncommon for the airplane, the weather, the system in which we operate or bad luck (Ernie Gann called it fate) to slap us down hard. So hard, in fact, that we may only get slapped once. Unfortunately, and in the true fashion of a properly delivered slap, sometimes even the best of us never see it coming. We must therefore be diligent in our duties in order to avoid being surprised by that terribly unforgiving, one-time slap. How do we get there and do that? The same way you get to Carnegie Hall my friends: practice, practice, practice.
Entrepreneurial Gunslinger
"I could be president of Sikorsky for six months before they found me out, but the president would only have my job for six seconds before he'd kill himself." – Walter R. 'Dick' Faull, helicopter test pilot.
You do not just command the pilot seat; you are the owner of the seat. The airplane is Owner-Flown, the next descriptive term on the cover of T&T. It's not a borrowed or rented machine and it's not flown by a hired gun; you're no pretender. Only in the movies can a novice be summoned from seat 28B or the board room, plop down in the left seat, don a headset, receive radio instructions from Lloyd Bridges and Robert Stack, then fly an instrument approach to a survivable landing – inflatable autopilot assisted or not. As test pilot Dick Faull said, most would kill themselves in short order. Because of the complexity of the machine, its operation and the regulatory hurdles involved, the task of piloting and aircraft ownership is no small undertaking. It's your doing that put the airplane in the hangar and made it available at your beck-and-call; it's you that is the entrepreneurial gunslinger. Ownership represents an ability and convenience easily minimalized if unfamiliar with the comparatively sacramental process of public transportation. Recent articles in this column describe some of the components in the ownership and operation of your high-performance airplane and how, in fact, the very complexity of the endeavor is one of the things that draws us to flying.
Classy Keys
"To invent an airplane is nothing. To build one is something. But to fly is everything." – Otto Lilienthal
It was a magical time and they were all marvelous machines, but you're no longer dangling below the high-wing of a trainer under the tutelage of an instructor. You're not sitting atop a Hershey-bar wing droning along at 7,500 feet – new license in hand. And there's no ballistic recovery chute to save you from fate or yourself. You're likely not propelled by normally-aspirated, piston-produced horses and you no longer have the luxury of a large fudge-factor from the engineers. Turbocharged recips or jet turbines are your power source. Your glide ratio is less, the air is dangerously cold and thin where you fly, fuel disappears by the hundreds of pounds and a mile is consumed in the time it took you to read this sentence. Your altitude is called a Flight Level and the strength of your engines is described by shaft horsepower or pounds of thrust. The decisions you make are influenced by speed, often measured in Mach, by weather measured in RVR's, runways available by Mu readings and your fuel by time remaining in minutes. Expenses are not measured by dollars, but by tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of dollars. The final descriptive words in the magazine's title is Cabin-Class Aircraft. Not quite as exalted as 'Galaxy Class' like the Starship Enterprise, and while it's gratifying to have a key in your pocket that says CAT, Jaguar, or Trinity Yachts, airplane keys that say Piper, Cessna, Beechcraft, Gulfstream, Citation, Lear, Falcon, Daher, Mitsubishi, Hawker, or Pilatus are in a rarified class of their own.
Born To Be a Pilot
"It's none of their business that you have to learn how to write. Let them think you were born that way." – Ernest Hemingway
I wasn't born a writer, or a pilot for that matter – I have to work at them both. Thank you for elevating the bar and making it seem as if you were born a great pilot, even though we all have to work at it. Thank you for not flying as if each flight should be a demonstration of the performance envelope and for enduring the ongoing education, training and expense needed to remain a good pilot. For doing it right and making the rest of us look good. For upholding the trust of friends, family and the public. For having the courage to divert or cancel when the pilot-hairs stand up on your neck. And for helping dispel the myth that little airplanes always crash and that GA pilots are entitled hobbyists. But you know all of this because you have hustled and things have come to you. I'm grateful to be one of the writers for The Pilots of Owner-Flown, Cabin-Class Aircraft and to sign my John Hancock boldly upon on each story.
"Loyalty to the country always. Loyalty to the government when it deserves it." – Mark Twain
In addition to our regular fly-ing schedule, July provides an opportunity to attend sundry fly-ins, pancake breakfasts and fireworks. We're in a unique position to view the rockets' red glare and bombs bursting in air from the plane if we choose, and fireworks are great, but not the metaphoric kind. Keep doing it right, so as to limit the drama and avoid any mechanical or procedural fireworks. As professionals, business leaders and educated Americans, we are also in a position to recognize political fireworks and challenges to our nation's founding documents. As we gather with friends and family around the grill, pool, boat, golf course, and the airplane, to celebrate "a government that derives its just powers from the consent of the governed…", We the Pilots know that nothing is free, especially freedom. We must assume a leadership role and check-six – aeronautically and metaphorically. Let's continue cultivating the things that have preserved our freedoms and got us to where we are as T&T pilots, business leaders and as a Nation. Have a safe and happy July, my friends.

Junibacken är ett upplevelsehus med fokus på barnlitteratur, på Djurgården i Stockholm, invigt den 8 juni 1996. Området har fått sitt namn efter den fiktiva gård där Astrid Lindgrens barnboksfigur Madicken bodde.

Fasta inslag

Sagotorget
På Sagotorget, före påstigningen till Sagotåget, finns hus och miljöer från sagor skrivna av olika barnboksförfattare, till exempel Mumintrollen, Mulle Meck och Alfons Åberg. Uppdraget att gestalta Sagotorget gick till konstnären Tor Svae, som även skapade merparten av Junibackens temautställningar.

Sagotåget
Sagotåget består av vagnar där besökarna kan åka genom tredimensionellt uppbyggda miljöer av Astrid Lindgrens sagor, från Madicken till Emil i Lönneberga till Ronja rövardotter. Miljöerna är uppbyggda efter illustrationer av Marit Törnqvist och allt är handgjort. Passagerarna vägleds genom sagorna till ett ljudspår som finns på 12 olika språk. I den svenskspråkiga versionen hörs Astrid Lindgrens röst.

Villa Villekulla och teater
I Villa Villekulla-rummet, som ligger vid sagotågets ändstation, finns Pippis hus. Det spelas också teater här, av Junibackens teaterensemble. Varje år spelas cirka 1 600 föreställningar.

Historia

Bakgrund
Initiativtagaren till Junibacken var Staffan Götestam som alltid tyckte att museer var tråkiga när han var liten. Han hade en vision om att bygga något annat än ett vanligt barnmuseum, något lekfullt och interaktivt. Som barn älskade han teater, så målet var att kombinera teaterns idé med ett kulturhus för barn. Götestam presenterade sitt förslag för Astrid Lindgren; på det stadiet var det enbart hennes verk han ville presentera. "När jag frågade Astrid om hon ville låna ut sin sagovärld svarade hon: Ja ... men på ett villkor. Jag vill att andra författare och kreatörer ska vara med också. Jag vill inte ha något Astrid Lindgrenmuseum!" Så föddes idén om ett barnkulturhus med tredimensionellt uppbyggda sagomiljöer.

Tillfälliga utställningar

Senare förändringar
Under 2006 hade scenen med Katla i Sagotåget modifierats för att bli mindre läskig. Ursprungligen när åskådarna passerade "karmafallet" var Katla för nära dem. Draken ändrades eftersom den skrämde många små barn som åkte Sagotåget. Den gick sönder samma år som den ändrades. I nya scenen med Katla såg åskådarna Katla på avstånd, från Skorpans och Jonatans synvinkel. En annan skillnad är att den gamla draken rörde sig lite och vrålade samtidigt som åskådarna såg henne. Den var gjord av latex. Den nya draken rör sig inte alls och är gjord av metall.
