Colorado River Management Plan, Final Environmental Impact Statement, Grand Canyon National Park, AZ
Document Number: 06-2761
Pursuant to subsection 102(2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, codified as amended at 42 U.S.C. 4332(2)(C), the National Park Service (NPS) announces the availability of the Record of Decision for the Colorado River Management Plan, Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona. On February 17, 2006, the Director, Intermountain Region approved the Record of Decision for the project. As soon as practicable, the NPS will begin to implement the two Preferred Alternatives contained in the Final Environmental Impact Statement issued on November 10, 2005. For the Lees Ferry to Diamond Creek section of the Colorado River, the NPS has selected the preferred alternative, modified Alternative H, which will allow 5.5 months mixed motor/nonmotor use and 6.5 months nonmotorized use; reduce the maximum group size for commercial groups; establish use patterns based on daily, weekly and seasonal launch limits; and increase noncommercial use primarily in the shoulder and winter months. This alternative will allow for a moderate increase in estimated yearly passenger totals and allow passenger exchanges at Whitmore to accommodate commercial trips launching during the mixed-use seasons. Noncommercial permits will be awarded through a ``hybrid'' weighted lottery system for applicants applying for Lees Ferry to Diamond Creek river trips after boaters transition from the waitlist. This course of action and 7 other alternatives were analyzed in the Draft and Final Environmental Impact Statements for the Lees Ferry to Diamond Creek section of the Colorado River. The full range of foreseeable environmental consequences was assessed, and appropriate mitigating measures were identified. For the Lower Gorge of the Colorado River, the NPS has selected modified Alternative 4, which reflects an agreement reached between Grand Canyon National Park and the Hualapai Tribe, achieved through extensive consultation, on most issues relating to the elements of use, specifically for trips launching at or continuing past Diamond Creek. This alternative will allow overall HRR operations to increase, while reducing group size, limiting day trips in the non-peak season, and limiting overnight trips throughout the year. However, agreement could not be reached after extensive consultation and incorporation of Hualapai tribal concerns, on the level of pontoon boat operations and upstream travel from Lake Mead. This selected modified Alternative 4, incorporates the NPS's preference for lower levels of pontoon boat use in the Quartermaster area compared to levels proposed by the Hualapai Tribe. Pontoon operations, under this alternative, will continue to be allowed, with five boats operating at one time in the Quartermaster area and with a maximum daily capacity of 480 passengers, which could increase to 600 passengers per day based on favorable performance reviews of concession operations and resource monitoring data. Upriver, motorized trip takeouts will be allowed with a maximum of four trips per day during the peak season and one per day during the non-peak season; however, no jetboat tours will be allowed to operate. This course of action and 4 other alternatives were analyzed in the Draft and Final Environmental Impact Statements for the Lower Gorge of the Colorado River. The full range of foreseeable environmental consequences was assessed, and appropriate mitigating measures were identified. The Record of Decision includes a statement of the decision made, synopses of other alternatives considered, the basis for the decision, a description of the environmentally preferable alternatives, a finding on impairment of park resources and values, a listing of measures to minimize environmental harm, an overview of public involvement in the decision-making process, and a Statement of Findings.

I got a call from a customer the other day who lost their Hyper-V host OS. He was reporting a network outage because his standalone hyper-v host was down and had taken most of his VMs with it.
Fortunately, we managed his company's backups with a Datto Siris device. This backup appliance takes hourly snapshots of the company servers and keeps them safe and sound on the local Datto server. If a disaster should strike, we can mount the last backup image of the server as a virtual machine running on the Datto backup device. The users connect to the restored virtual server just like they would the original, crashed server.
The other great benefit of the Datto backup device is the offsite disaster recovery features. Not only does the datto take hourly snapshots of a company's servers, but each night the backup appliance consolidates the daily backups and sends all the changes from the day to Datto's bi-coastal data centers. If a major catastrophe such a s a hurricane or tornado were to hit a customer's office building, we could log in to the Datto website and restore the customer's latest backups as virtual machines in the cloud. The customer can then access their mission critical servers over a secure vpn connection.
Okay, done with the Datto info and back to my customer's story. In this instance, the customer's offices were fine and so was his Datto appliance. We were able to boot his mission critical servers on the local datto backup appliance and keep his company in business until his warranty parts could arrive.
Once the Hyper-V server was rebuilt, I scheduled some down time and exported the latest backups from the Datto appliance as virtual disk images. Then I attached those disk images to the Virtual Machines in Hyper-V and booted them up.
You never want to have to use your backup systems, but in this case Datto made it easy.
The other day we had an interesting project come across our helpdesk. A client of ours has an old mail archive application that they need to maintain for history sake, though they aren't adding new messages to that archive. To complicate things, that app lived on an old out of warranty Dell server. No problem – Dell servers tend to last forever if you give them a little tender love and care every once and a while and we back this server up with a Datto backup appliance.
You can probably guess where this is heading – our team started getting alerts that a hard drive was predicted to fail on this server.
The most obvious option was to recommend that the customer purchase a new hard drive to replace the one that was going to fail. This is a good, low-cost option that would extend the life of the server a bit. However, I never enjoy spending customer's money if there's another option.
We had implemented a multi-server virtualization solution with shared storage for this customer's production environment a while ago and that system still had plenty of capacity to handle one more virtual server. Our engineering design team discussed the various options we could present to the client and determined that turning the old physical server into a virtual server was the most cost effective solution for the client (labor was on us for this one because they are under a managed services contract) and this helps with some of the other goals we have for this client's network.
We scheduled a maintenance window with the client and took one final backup with the Datto appliance. Then we exported that backup as virtual disk images for each drive on the server and imported them as a new virtual machine. Fast forward an hour and a half including several reboots to install paravirtualization drivers and the legacy archiving application is back in business. An added bonus is that the application runs faster than before because it's on more robust hardware.
Easiest server migration ever. Thanks Datto!

Syracuse University honors Ruby Dee, Ossie Davis with the Chancellor's Medal for Outstanding Achievement
Monday, April 17, 2006, By News Staff
Syracuse University honors Ruby Dee, Ossie Davis with the Chancellor's Medal for Outstanding AchievementApril 17, 2006Sara Millersemortim@syr.edu
On Tuesday, April 18, Ruby Dee, playwright, poet and award-winning actress, and her late husband, Ossie Davis, actor, screenwriter and director, will be honored by Syracuse University with the Chancellor's Medal for Outstanding Achievement. They were nominated for the award by William Rowland III, executive artistic director of the Paul Robeson Performing Arts Company, in recognition of their theatrical artistry and passionate activism for social justice and human dignity.
The Chancellor's Medal for Outstanding Achievement was first presented in 1967 on the occasion of Chancellor William P. Tolley's 25th anniversary as chancellor. In the decades since, the medal has been given to individuals in honor of their extraordinary contributions to the University, to their areas of expertise and/or to the community. Among the past Chancellor's Medal recipients are Ken Auletta G'65, U.S. Sen. Joseph R. Biden LAW '68, Claire Bloom, Aaron Copland, U.S. Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan '84 LLD, Renee Schine Crown '50 and Fred Silverman '58.
Both Dee and Davis made outstanding contributions to the American theater and the 20th century African American experience.
While attending New York City's Hunter College, from which she graduated in 1945, Dee served an apprenticeship at the American Negro Theater and soon made her Broadway debut. As a stage, film and television actress, Dee played a wide range of roles — from Shakespeare's Cleopatra to Lutiebelle in "Purlie Victorious" (1963) — in an acting career that spanned more than 50 years. She was the first African American woman to appear in major roles at the American Shakespeare Festival in Stratford, Conn.
Davis began acting with a Harlem theatre company while at Howard University and also became an active lifelong campaigner for civil rights. He made his Broadway debut in 1946 in "Jeb," where he met Dee. They co-starred in many stage productions and films, including "Purlie Victorious," which Davis wrote, and during the 1970s had their own radio show, "The Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee Story Hour." Among his best-known film roles are "The Joe Louis Story" (1953), and his directorial debut was a comedy-action film, "Cotton Comes to Harlem" (1970).
Together, Dee and Davis are considered to be the mother and father of black theater and were active in the American Civil Rights movement for many years. They have been honored by the U.S. government with a National Medal of Arts; by the American Theater with an introduction into the Theatre Hall of Fame; and by the Screen Actors Guild with a Lifetime Achievement Award.
Dee and Davis were joint Kennedy Center honorees in December 2005. They were cited not only for their "theatrical and film achievement," but because they opened "many a door previously shut tight to African American artists and planted the seed for the flowering of America's multicultural humanity."

Is it a coincidence?
For those closely following events in Iraq, many were shocked by headlines describing the recent demise of one Izzat Ibrahim al-Duri. The notice that prompted these news stories boldly proclaimed that al-Duri was the leader of the resistance.
However, it is noted that Islamic extremists tend to be date-conscious. According to the notice, al-Duri died shortly after 2.30am on 11 November, Armistice Day in Europe, Veteran's Day in America. The loss of the resistance commander would be a minor victory for the American coalition, reminiscent of other victories in wars past, or ... a shallow victory.
Of course, that suggests design. Ordinarily, people do not pick the month and date of their death. Was this announcement pre-planned? More to the point, was this notice heralding al-Duri's death premature? This writer is a bit sceptical for a unique reason. For thirty-two months, coalition troops have been hunting al-Duri, and they placed a $10 million reward on his head.
Unfortunately, this search was relatively obscure, and al-Duri was not exactly a household word. For that reason, to serve a reminder, this nascent columnist wrote a recent comment piece titled "The most wanted man in Iraq, maybe", fingering al-Duri as the resistance leader.
The article first appeared on this website on 30 October. Twelve days later, we are led to believe al-Duri is dead. I have never been a fan of coincidence.
How did all this come about? An email was sent to a Western news agency appraising them of al-Duri's death shortly after 2.30am, Friday, 11 November, and described the man as "the leader of the resistance". The email was sent by the Arab Socialist Baath party, Iraq Command.
Unhelpfully, the email did not provide a cause of death. Some were a bit surprised that the Iraqi Baath party still existed, and cynics immediately wanted to know the location of the party headquarters. And why no cause of death, causing conjecture where there should be none, like leukaemia, for instance.
The remainder of the news story was not exactly informative, causing scepticism. Arab television networks broadcast the story based on the email but had no confirmation.
Abd al-Rahman Muhammad Ibrahim, nephew and son-in-law of al-Duri, said he had heard the report on an Arab satellite television station but the family had received no death notification.
Self-generating story
In Amman, Jordan, the secretary-general of the Jordanian Baath wing, Taysir al-Humsi, said he heard the report on television but had no other information. This was beginning to sound like a self-generating story from a fiction novelist. Perhaps, the next day would be more illuminating.
On 12 November reports came pouring in. The death of the former Iraqi vice-president caused shock and dismay in his hometown of al-Dur in the Salah al-Din province, 30km east of Tikrit.
Some of the residents speculated that the announcement was untrue, suggesting that it had been made to cover up the role al-Duri played in attacks on the US occupation.
Muzahim Khalid, a resident, told Deutsche Presse-Agentur, "[We] don't want the vice-president to be humiliated at the hands of occupation forces or the sectarian groups that hold the reins of power," and he, along with others, hoped the news was true as this would prevent him from suffering.
Several sources close to al-Duri's family stated that they had received no information about him other than from the media.
They also insisted they did not know where he had been hiding. They had not heard from him since the fall of Baghdad (April 2003), according to a family member identified only as Abu Abd Allah.
The family had made no efforts to prepare a burial at the city cemetery, and Salah al-Din's deputy governor, Abd Allah Hussain, confirmed the province had no official notification or other communication concerning al-Duri's fate. The official said he had contacted the Iraqi coordinator with the US military, and he, too, was completely ignorant of the matter.
Key figure
Kurdish Media reported; "Iraq's Baath party supporters confirmed on Saturday reports of the death of Saddam Hussein's deputy Izzat Ibrahim al-Duri, who was seen as a key figure in the insurgency since Saddam's fall in 2003. 'On the soil of Arabic Iraq, the soul of Comrade Izzat Ibrahim al-Duri returned to God the Creator on Friday at dawn,' said a statement on albasrah.net which publishes news from Baath supporters in Iraq."
Confirming that al-Duri was the field commander for the heroic resistance, "there was no independent verification of his death," in the words of Kurdish Media.
So, the former vice-president's family and hometown was of no help, and the Kurds were less than forthcoming as well.
The thought occurred that a huge news organisation such as CBS might be able to shed some light on the subject. CBS reported on 12 November: "Saturday's posting on a website run by former Baath party members appeared to confirm an email announcing the death of Izzat Ibrahim al-Duri that circulated Friday (italics is mine)." Good ole CBS. I read on, searching for the confirmation.
CBS continued by saying: "The statement about al-Duri's death appeared Saturday on a website believed run by Salah al-Mukhtar, who was Saddam's ambassador to India and head of the External Information Department (huh?). 'In the pure land of Iraq, the soul of comrade Izzat Ibrahim returned to God on Friday at dawn,' the website said. It described al-Duri as the field commander of the heroic resistance and was signed by the Baath party's political media and publishing office."
Experiencing a sinking feeling, I sought more on CBS's version of "confirmation". After casting doubt on whether al-Duri was still the leader of the resistance, in direct conflict with its source, the report stated: "In Amman, Jordan, lawyer Ahmad al-Najdawi, a member of the Jordanian branch of the Baath party, said he read the web statement and appeared to consider it accurate."
Appeared to consider it accurate? Stated flatly, what CBS provided is not confirmation of al-Duri's death.
The lack of information on the second day was bordering on proving a negative, a philosophical impossibility. All of this is acerbated by the Islamic proclivity to bury their dead quickly. Meanwhile, for sceptics, yearning for a writ of habeas corpus, there is no joy.
How difficult is it to provide a death notification to the family? How difficult is it for the Iraqi Baath party, if it exists, to provide the body of the deceased? All statements aside from various and sundry sources, this Machiavellian dance must come to an end. Confirmation is the body of al-Duri and his family's sad funeral and their mourning. Nothing less.
On the third day, the intrigue persisted with two diverse developments that could be related. In the UK, The Scotsman newspaper reported that a later statement on a second website stated:
"We apologise from our brothers and sisters for publishing a statement announcing the death of brother Izzat al-Duri, may God extend his life." From a confidential source in Amman, Jordan, I received this unconfirmed reply:
"Here's another curious coincidence. Yesterday [the 12th] seven armed insurgent groups in Iraq announced their conditions for laying down their arms and joining in the political process instead. Izzat al-Duri was reputed to be the paymaster for many armed insurgent groups."
Is it possible that the mysterious message found by The Scotsman on a second website was written by the resistance leadership, beseeching their troops not to abandon the cause?
A US Department of Defence news release supported the conjecture that al-Duri was involved in funding. "[The] money was looted from Iraq during the Saddam reign and now is being used to recruit and finance numerous insurgent attacks in Iraq," it said. It also stated that coalition forces would continue to look for al-Duri. This got some play on NBC.
At the end of day three, nearly the entire mainstream media and officials in Washington, London, and Baghdad dropped the issue. Reportedly, the commander of the resistance in Iraq and possible paymaster is dead, allegedly, questionably, and few seem to be concerned about it. What a way to run a war.
On the fourth day, Monday, the website that posted the original message pulled it.
Incidentally, in my 30 October article that reminded readers of al-Duri's presence and importance, I happened to bring up the name of Hani Abd al-Latif Tilfah al-Takriti, the king of hearts, the former director of the daunting Special Security Organisation (or Amn al Khas). In terms of succession of the now defunct Saddam regime, he was right behind al-Duri.
Indeed, David Newton, director of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty's Iraq Service, asserted, "... it is more likely that Tilfah might be organising the attacks. He was much closer to Hussein [than al-Duri]." Not attesting to the accuracy of that statement, I am still wondering as to the whereabouts of Tilfah. And Izzat Ibrahim al-Duri.

How does HIT Anti-Roach Gel work?
HIT Anti-Roach Gel is a cockroach nest killer. The gel has special ingredients which attracts cockroaches. On consumption of the gel, cockroaches go back to their nest and die. Other cockroaches that come in contact with dead cockroaches also die... resulting in the elimination of the cockroach nest.
Does the gel kill cockroaches instantly?
Cockroaches die after a few hours of consumption of the gel. This allows them to return to their nest, and kill other cockroaches that get in contact with them.
Where all do I need to apply the gel for best results?
Apply HIT Anti-Roach Gel dots at a distance of 5-10 cms. along cupboard door hinges, underside- along the edges of shelves, cracks and crevices, nooks and corners and areas which are frequented by cockroaches. Make sure you do not apply the gel in places from where it can be easily washed off.
What is the ideal distance at which I should apply the gel?
Apply HIT Anti-Roach Gel dots at a distance of 20-25 cms. Just 20 dots are sufficient to cover a standard-sized kitchen.
Do I need to cover food/utensils during application of the gel?
As HIT Anti-Roach Gel is a spot-applicant and does not spread, you don't need to cover food, utensils etc. This makes it the most effortless cockroach solution. However, adequate care is to be taken to keep it away from direct contact with any food material to avoid possible contamination.
How long do I need to keep the gel dots for it to be effective?
The gel is effective for upto 45 days. Care is to be taken for the gel not to be washed/wiped off in this period.
Can this be used on wet surfaces like bathrooms, sinks etc.?
Areas easily washed by water like bathroom sinks, water outlets, etc. should be avoided. Application in areas that are safe from water...like cupboards, shelves etc. will give good results.


I offer a possibility to get features of your choice added to DemoRecorder by paying for that implementation.
This is intended for professional users who need specific features for getting their job done.
I usually implement additional features requested by customers based on a fixed-price offer.
I usually make the offer after the requirements and specification have been agreed upon.
I.e., I usually don't do hourly paid work, but offer fixed prices. So, before ordering, you know how much it will cost, and there won't be any surprises later.
what percentage of this effort I charge to the customer. This almost always 100%, but in some exceptional cases, this may be lower.
In any case I keep all the rights on the generated software while you get a license to use it together with licensed products from me. ( i.e. if you order some enhancement to DemoRecorder 24/7, you can use it with all licenses of DemoRecorder 24/7 in your organisation. ) If such features make sense as part of the product, I include them in the general product and therefore make it available for other customers as well.
I estimate the effort in a unit which I call "engineering unit" which takes into account different skill levels needed for different tasks, and includes possible investments in infrastructure and tools etc needed for a project. ( sometimes, 100 hours of labour can be optimized away by using an appropriate tool which costs significantly less than the saved labour. ) So allows optimal use of resources. Therefore it is more useful than a man-hour.
As a rule of thumb, one "engineering unit" in terms of labour is about 4 man-hours of a highly skilled engineer.
1/3 when everything is finished.
Larger projects are probably payed in more parts, or split it in multiple mid-sized projects.


The leaves have been beautiful this year and have lasted longer than usual. I could see some of the leaves from inside the house. Our yellow maple was in full bloom on October 29 and we took a number of pictures.
This Fall has been one to remember. On October 3, 2011, I had a total right hip replacement at St Mary's Hospital. My surgeon was Dr. Ormande Mahoney of Athens Orthopedic Clinic. It was my first serious surgery. My mobility was limited to a walker for three weeks and Lortab was not friendly to my concentration. Home Health Physical Therapy got me to moving and I was walking outside with a cane in the sunshine in my fourth week. The fifth week I started driving and working at the office on a half day basis. Last week, I stopped using the cane and I am walking with a slight limp. Physical Therapy at St Mary's at the Exchange on Daniells Bridge Road is improving my walking and limp. The operation was a real success- I helped take up the offering at church last Sunday!
The leaves have been beautiful this year and have lasted longer than usual. I could see some of the leaves from inside the house. Our yellow maple was in full bloom on October 29 and we took a number of pictures. When I was able to go to the office, the drive along the Oconee Veterans Parkway, Athens Loop and GA 36 was a pleasure. I managed to take some pictures. With an approaching freezing weather and rain and wind, I took a lot of pictures on November 15. Several in our yard were great along with the one of Friendship Presbyterian Church.It has been a great time to be alive!
With friends, we have watched all the UGA Football Games. After the Boise State and South Carolina games, we were disappointed and discouraged about Georgia ever having a championship again. However, they started winning and winning! It even felt a little like old times when we beat Florida 24 to 20 on October 29. They really had it together (much talent on display) in the New Mexico Game- even though it was against a weaker opponent.
As we approached the Auburn game, I was somewhat anxious and felt the DAWGS may have been overrated. However, they played a perfect game and STOMPED Auburn 45 to 7! My friends and I then felt that if we got to the title game in the Dome, we could at least play a respectable game. The sluggish Kentucky Game somewhat tempered our enthusiasm. We now have to deal with GA Tech which will be Fired Up to beat GA. The DAWGS will need to be on their game. I believe they and the coaches will see to that.
GA beat FLA 24 to 20 on 10.29.11-!!!!!
ATHENS, Ga. — Aaron Murray threw four touchdown passes to surpass Matthew Stafford's school record and No. 14 Georgia romped past No. 24 Auburn 45-7 Saturday, moving within one win of playing for the Southeastern Conference championship.
The Bulldogs (8-2, 6-1 SEC) won their eighth in a row with a dominating performance in the Deep South's oldest rivalry. They raced to a 35-7 halftime lead over the stunned Tigers (6-4, 4-3) and finished with their biggest win in the series since 1946.
Georgia can clinch its first division title in six years at home next weekend against Kentucky.
Overall, a nice fall and one to remember – a fine time to be alive!
On a sad note, UGA fans lost a treasure in Larry Munson who died November 20, 2011. Many of us have listened to him and loved his game calling for years. We had many an excited experience with his broadcasts. GA Fans will miss Larry! This video of Tribute brings back some highlights of his career.

Female, Main character, Alive, Human
Cywren Caster is the main character in A Fallout Tale. She is controlled by Venturian throught the series.
Cywren has shown to be very adventurous and intelligent, shown in the first episode when she was only 1 and could already manually unlock her baby gate, and hack terminals with ease (Revealed by Venturian when she gets fed up with his lack of knowledge and picks the codes herself.) She is also shown to be very eloquent and charismatic, seeming to get herself out of any situation if she has the ability too. While very eloquent and intelligent, these seem to be balanced out by her lack of skills with some guns, and lack of strength, yet she appears to be getting stronger. Despite her intellect she really fails when it comes to history as she called a Tokugawa samurai Ghenghis Khan even though Ghenghis was a Mongolian. This is understandable as she was born in a time in which survival is more important then learning the past though this does not excus Venturian himself for not knowing this.
Cywren seems to have a very big heart and very selfless, seemingly distressed when she couldn't save Lucas Simms, and also very reluctant to take rewards, usually saying "You don't have to pay me anything". Not most would consider Cywren 'brave' but she is definitely trying, considering the facts that even though she was afraid to deactivate the bomb in Megaton and of the Super-Mutants, she managed to deactivate the nuke and save the people in the Police Headquarters. She is also willing to give her life to save the world, which was shown when she sacrificed herself and was exposed to 5000 rads of radiation to activate the Purifier. (Fawkes/Copper didn't know how to use it, and even if he did his fingers were too big to press the buttons, anyway.) And since she didn't know that she was part Time Lord, she thought she would actually die.
But in time she has become restless, irritated, impatient and has grown unaffected by the deaths of people that were not in her circle of friends (example would be Alex Dargon). She has also grown attached to objects more so than humans. Also shown when she was mean to Sally when they were abducted by aliens and went out of her way to show that she didn't want help from a child. However, her angry nature hides a kind heart, since she respected Sally in the end.
It can be assumed that her angry nature was a result of inability to save her Father from death which then a few Enclave Eyebots proceeded to mock with their patriotic music. This would make even the kindest person bitter. But she was also a very easy to annoy and irritate before this as seen in almost every episode.
The Time line Cywren who's Mother is Poe, she has passed down here lust for creativity and tinkering.
Poe being the smart person she is loves to build, well shortly after the end of Skyrim Tale she used the Space Core to do a large paradox in time and transport her to the Fallout Tale Era and she met James. Well her and  James hitched it off and got married and had Cywren. Sadly Poe died during Cywren's birth. Now Fallout Tale was being made through and well yeah Her dad died and she constantly had a affection for an individual named Timeboom (sorry if I spelled it wrong)
Well that's it but a main question is how Cywren ended up in Nevada. Well after the end of Fallout Tale, Cywren was exploring a Metro station, and was knocked out due to natural gases. She then was transported by Timebomb to Nevada, where he cared for her and the rest of the crew split up. And now we are here where we are today. But one question remains. Where....Is.....Copper?

Whoppah explores: Frank Lloyd Wright
Explores with you
Frank Lloyd Wright was one of the most influential architects of the twentieth century. It's high time to find out more about this world architect!
EvelienJanuary 2023
**Frank Lloyd Wright was one of the most influential architects of the twentieth century. He grew up in Wisconsin and studied civil engineering at the University of Wisconsin. After that, Wright moved to Chicago and found a job as a technical draftsman. In the following years he worked for various architectural firms, including Louis Sullivan, of which he was an assistant. In 1893 he opened his own office in Chicago. This is where his glorious career began. It's high time to know more come across this world architect!
Master of "Organic Architecture"
Wright was inspired for his designs by the maxim 'form follows function', coined by fellow architect Louis Sullivan. Nature was also an important source of inspiration: architecture had to arise from 'the laws of nature', whereby form and material may not conflict with the environment. He called this philosophy "organic architecture". Around 1897, for example, he designed a number of pavilions in his unique style, also known as Prairie Houses.
The structures mainly consist of horizontal lines and natural materials such as stone and wood. With this typical architectural style, Wright wanted to emphasize the natural beauty of the surrounding Midwestern prairies. For the interior spaces, he used soft, natural colors and few partitions to keep the space as light as possible. Other well-known architectural masterpieces by Wright are the Guggenheim Museum in New York and the Imperial hotel in Tokyo.
Each building as a "complete work of art"
While many will remember Frank Lloyd Wright as an architect, Wright's interest was not limited to architecture alone. From furniture design to lighting and glassware, Wright aspired to turn each of his prairie homes into a 'complete work of art'. Here too, Wright applied the same principle as with the exterior of his buildings: the environment and function were leading for the design. Although Wright developed a lot of furniture, chairs were his most sought after designs. For example, he designed heavy oak furniture with stately, vertical shapes – simplistic, but revolutionary for the time. He later experimented with slimmer and futuristic shapes – the forerunners of modern, minimalist furniture design.
A few pieces of most designs appeared, but in 1955 Wright collaborated with the Heritage Henredon furniture partnership on a collection for the American middle class market. This "Taliesin Collection", with a lot of oak and straight shapes, did not catch on at the time, because it did not fit with the then current styles such as space age, which made extensive use of plastic. Nowadays these items are real collector's items. Lucky you if you can pick one up!

Gros Morne National Park: acknowledging The Territory
November 20, 2017 November 20, 2017 / camp42blog	/ Leave a comment
As a country, Canada is just beginning to comes to grips with its responsibilities for and debts to the indigenous peoples within her borders. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) revealed in relentless, horrifying detail, the treatment received by indigenous peoples through first-voice testimony and historic documentation (including the government's own 200 year-plus cache of damning documents). You can find the report at trc.ca. I was one of the United Church "listeners" in the "Church Listening Tent" during the Halifax round of TRC gatherings. Our role was to offer a place of rest, nourishment and to simply listen, if that was asked for. We also had one of three apologies that we were to read if requested. Two were United Church apologies (1986 and 1998) and the other was the apology made by the Canadian Government in 2008. When I was not doing a shift in the tent, I explored the displays and listened to testimony. I remain shaken to my core.
I liken it to the experience of the German townspeople who lived next to concentration camps during the war, who were forced to parade through the camps by the Allies so they could fully appreciate the horrors of what they chose to ignore. What grew within me during that experience was, first and foremost, a deep gratitude and appreciation for the grace and resiliency of indigenous peoples as they agree to the reconciliation journey. Also, a personal and professional commitment began to grow to support the recommendations of the final TRC report which was accepted by all political parties. First among them, is a commitment to acknowledge the Treaty status of the land we live or travel on. That is why this page is part of this blog. This particular commitment proves to be complicated in the case of Newfoundland.
First of all, Newfoundland was a British Colony until the very late date of 1949. So, her "Canadian" history is relatively new. If the story of Canada's relationship with indigenous peoples contains tragedy and horror, Newfoundland's story is particularly awful because it involves the true extinction of a distinct people, the Beothuk. The Newfoundland government website says:
The Beothuk were the aboriginal inhabitants of the island of Newfoundland. They were Algonkian-speaking hunter-gatherers who once occupied most of the island. As a result of a complex mix of factors, the Beothuk became extinct in 1829 when Shanawdithit, the last known Beothuk, died in St. John's.
Wikipedia is a little more detailed, stating that violent pressure from settlers and an influx of other aboriginal peoples combined with a lack of food sources, an explosion of infectious diseases and constant movement toward the interior land which could not sustain life. Whether active and intentional genocide occurred is still greatly debated by academics. There can be no denial that there are some heartbreaking historical stories of the "hunting" of Beothuks.
The Mi'kmaw, originating from lands off island, have also traditionally travelled, hunted and gathered throughout Newfoundland island. Miawpukek is at Conne River. A community's words about themselves are always most important and usually the most accurate. The following is an excerpt from their website (http://www.mfngov.ca/about-miawpukek/):
Miawpukek is the traditional Mi'kmaw name for our community. "Miawpukek" is used as the name of the community in most documents produced by Miawpukek First Nation Government. Documents produced elsewhere most often uses "Conne River". The name means "Middle River".
Miawpukek became a permanent community sometime around 1822. Before 1822 it was one of many semi-permanent camping sites used by our people who were at the time still nomadic and traveling throughout our Mi'kmaq Domain of Newfoundland, Labrador, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Maine.
Miawpukek Reserve was established according to traditional oral history in 1870. It was officially designated as Samiajij Miawpukek Indian Reserve under the Indian Act in 1987. Most of our members, as of June 1985, are registered Indians. The ancestries of our community members include Mi'kmaq, Innu, Abenaki and European lines.
Our membership is 787 on-Reserve and 1779 off-Reserve. Our total population on Reserve as of August, 2006 is 867. (787 Native and (approx.) 80 non-Native).
Since being established as a reserve in 1987, Miawpukek has gone from a poor, isolated community with almost 90% unemployment to a strong vibrant community with nearly 100% full time/part-time employment. We are one of two of the fastest growing communities in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. We are often pointed to by Indian and Northern Affairs as a model community for other First Nations.
We are located on the south coast of the island part of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. By land we are 224 km from the nearest service center, the international airport town of Gander. Our community is accessible by land, air and water.

Gros Morne: Gone fishin' (by Carl Yates)
Not everyone likes fishing but those who like it, like it a lot. It can be one of the most relaxing things to do, especially if the setting is right. In my opinion, the setting is right at Baker's Brook in Gros Morne. Baker's Brook is located north of Rocky Harbour and in strict Newfoundland terms it is a brook. In other provinces in Canada, it would be called a river but in Newfoundland the term is reserved for the big flows that are at the base of many valleys. Baker's Brook is fed by Baker's Pond which again in other jurisdictions would be assigned lake status. You see a pattern here! Baker's Pond was once a fjiord open to the ocean but after the last glaciers retreated over 10,000 years ago, the earth's crust rebounded and the fjiord got flushed with fresh water from the receding glaciers. The brook is home to speckled brook trout and Atlantic salmon, the two most common freshwater fish on the island. Both of these species have a desire to travel to the sea to feed and as result, grow bigger. Baker's Brook discharges to the ocean approximately 1 km from the main highway that goes through the park and is one of the better places that an angler can try his or her luck for salmon or trout. First, the rules are in order; fishing licenses for both trout and salmon are required but you don't need a guide if you are a Canadian citizen as the park is on federal land. Although Baker's Brook is an unscheduled salmon river, you still require a provincial salmon licence and a park licence if you wish to retain salmon. In essence, you will have two sets of tags and if you are fortunate to land a grilse [a salmon less than 63 cm centimetres], you must insert and lock each of the two tags through the gills of the fish. It is hoped that salmon will continue to make this ocean journey to ensure a sustainable run but our "friends in Greenland" may put an end to salmon if they continue to harvest salmon from the ocean as part of a commercial fishery. The numbers are very clear here that recreational fishing brings a greater return on investment than commercial fishing which is why Newfoundland banned commercial fishing in the 70s [a very good move]. In addition to the economics, Atlantic salmon are an important aspect of indigenous culture and a source of food for thousands of years.
To speak directly to the angling, a beautiful pool exists just upstream from where Baker's Brook flows into the sea. It is meant for fly fishing with a steady current to ensure your wet fly trails nicely. I have had the fortune to hook both salmon and sea trout. The trout gets the "sea" designation if it makes the journey to the ocean to feed. One can tell the trout is of the sea variety by its brilliant orange underbelly and its taste [sweetness]. The other interesting aspect of hooking a fish in the lower reaches of the brook is that the fish returns from the ocean with a full belly and an abundance of energy which means that the fish will put up a good fight when hooked. Although I have landed salmon at this pool, I have lost many after a fish has leapt in the air to set itself free. Even if you don't catch a fish, the experience at Baker's Brook is one of tranquility. You have beautiful views of the mountains and coastline to the south where the Tablelands rise, a wide-open ocean to the west and immediate views of hikers dropping by along a beautiful coastal trail which I have walked many times with Linda and our Jack Russell terriers. I have also had the pleasure of fishing this pool with my son Matthew, the fish biologist, who is even more enthralled with salmon fishing than myself, but not as much as my father who got us all hooked on this recreational past time. In addition to enjoying the recreational aspect of fishing, Matthew is finishing up his doctorate degree at Concordia University with objectives to ensure a sustainable approach to fishing for future generations.
Gros Morne National Park: lone woman camping trend
November 5, 2017 November 5, 2017 / camp42blog	/ 2 Comments
Some are adventurous. Some love nature. Some are sad.
We have noticed it before and I have a friend who does it. However, it would seem that women camping alone is a definite and popular trend. When we were camping at Green Point, every single campsite adjacent to us had women who were camping solo in them. The campsites were close and did not have a great deal of tree or bush cover so view-planes were unimpeded. Your neighbours are unavoidably observable.
One woman, about 40 or so pulled up in a kind of volkswagon-y . She would arrive at the end of each of her two days, cook up a scoff, contemplate the world from the vantage point of the top of her picnic table and then retire to bed. She had a large dog that looked kind of like a labradoodle. One evening a man came over and hung about chatting with her. She did not look terribly comfortable and I wondered about wandering over just to join in so she, and he, would know she was not unsupported and he was not unobserved. He left before she went to bed, but he arrived bright and early the next morning in a car. Again, they conversed and I could tell she sent him on his reluctant way. I admired her so much because, among other things, she expertly began her mornings with outdoor yoga.
The person to our immediate right on our first night was in her thirties. She was dog-less and slept in a tiny tent. She too was gone for most of the day, then arrived at suppertime, cooked a one-pot scoff and retired to the beach with her tea. At dusk she returned, lit a small campfire and sat by it, musing. She stayed for a night.
The next tenant of that site was a woman in her thirties who pulled in with an SUV with a rectangular contraption on the top. Lots of web addresses and sayings were decaled onto the car. When she got out, the most well-behaved German Shepherd calmly exited too. He kept very close to her. She told him to stay put, which he did reluctantly. Worried, his eyes followed her as she made her way to where I was sitting. Would I mind, she asked, defending her site from campsite stealers? She explained that someone took her last site because her car was not in it and her tent is always with her so a person just claimed her last campsite as some kind of squatter's rights. I sympathised. Green Point campground has a Darwinian survival-of-the-quickest system. There is no way of making reservations and there is no kiosk with a person in it to manage the sites. I could see how it could happen. You are supposed to put an "occupied" sign on your campsite marker, but there are never enough. She further explained that she does not carry food and she just hiked all day, 10 km, and was hungry. She and the dog had to go to Rocky Harbour to eat. She did not appear to carry any kind of food. She was very worried that someone not take her site, she repeated. In fact, she appeared anxious in a general, vibrating kind of way. The dog looked like he might get up and come over. She had her back to him, but must have felt his slight movement. She turned and motioned for him to sit. I thought quickly. I had no idea how long she would be and could not imagine personally fending off campsite thieves for the rest of the evening. I offered up our "occupied" sign. She could not seem to make eye contact. Grateful, she expressed thanks, ran off, placed the "occupied" sign on her campsite marker and sped off in her car. The dog sat upright in the seat, looked toward the road and settled in, like he had done this a thousand times.
On the back of her Subaru was a website address https://www.wandering-dog.com. I took a look. I found it fascinating reading. The blog chronicles the adventures of the service dog named Indiana. The feelings, thoughts and experiences of her person, Brittany, provide content. Brittany was sexually assaulted twice while serving in the US Navy and was diagnosed with PTSD. Four years ago, she was discharged on disability and has been travelling with Indiana ever since. Camping for four years! Her blog makes for some difficult reading. When she returned, I longed to get to know her a little more. But, connection is, as she says in various places in her blog, difficult for Brittany. It was getting dark when they returned from Rocky Harbour. She parked the car, reached up to the rectangular thing on the roof and adjusted some bits and pieces. Voila! A ladder appeared and a tent erected itself. She and the dog climbed the ladder and we did not see them until the next morning when the tent and ladder process worked itself in reverse. Then, safely ensconced in the SUV, Indiana and Brittany departed for breakfast and parts unknown, forever.
I have observed over the past couple of years that women who camp alone seem to have short stays. They like to hike. Many have dogs and most seem to cook their own food. Brittany, the only one I knew by name because she had a website, was the only one who does not deal with food. She also was the only one that was outwardly, seriously anxious. There are various reasons women camp alone. My friend, Janet Moulton loves the outdoors, is a confident, skilled and gregarious woman. I suspect she makes friends wherever she goes. Sometimes, she tells me, other women join her. I know another woman who is determined to do the entire Appalachian trail on her own. She too is confident, determined, tough and loves the outdoors, as well as the challenge of having a difficult goal. All the women I have encountered solo-camping in Parks, have another life to return to. Camping was a break, a time of renewal, a contrast from their ordinary life. It did not occur to me that someone would camp for four years and possibly many more. What, I pondered, is Brittany looking for? How will she know when she finds it? She is another person that will live in my prayer life for some time.
A final thought. It is interesting that I consider it an anomaly to observe more women camping alone. Yet, it also has to be said that it is unusual to find men camping alone in National Parks. What would I think about a man camping alone for four years with a dog? What would you think?
Gros Morne: a spiritual experience of apology and gratitude to the earth
October 28, 2017 October 28, 2017 / camp42blog	/ 1 Comment
Gros Morne National Park: a spiritual experience around every corner
I must see the mantle of the earth before I can rest. Going to Gros Morne always feels like pilgrimage. I need to go to the Tabletop, study it, touch the crinkled surface of the rock and just wait. The rock itself feels grainy-raw and looks wrinkled. Mother Earth without her makeup on.
The formation gives rise to a kind of dragon-spine all along the Northern Peninsula. Some of the oldest rock on the planet, it has managed to stay surface-bound in the shifting, folding, molding of the earth's crust. Nothing but the very toughest and most slow-growing of life exists on Tabletop rock because it is chock full of minerals and chemicals that make colonization of rock and soil almost impossible. The tiniest of trees, hundreds of years old, take root between rocks. They are so easily and willfully trampled by tourists who make rock cairns along the path despite explicit pleas from the Park not to because of the ecosystem's ancient fragility.
I need to touch Her for two reasons. First, I just pause to consider the near impossibility of being alive at this moment in time, part of a species that has existed for only 300,000 years. Energy from the gold rock reminds me to reflect, simply because I can. I am life consciously reflecting on 500 million years of planetary life. Second, I apologize to Her. Green Point may mark the boundary between the Cambrian and Ordovician periods, but we are now living in what scientists call the Anthropocene era. "Anthro" simply is a fancy word for "human-ish." Humans have so affected the air, land and water with our need to project heat, garbage and chemicals into and onto our planet that we are now creating our own geological time-mark. It can be measured in the earth's crust for all of time. So, I apologize to Her and vow to do a little better in my own life and sphere of communication. The apology is part of my passion for Parks as preserved space for nature, the people of Canada and the inhabitants of the greater world. When I leave I am sustained by the knowledge that the earth is resilient. On the Tabletops I can see, smell and feel 500 million years of persistent existence under my feet. Humankind may not live another 100,000 years, but the Tabletops will still be there.
Another place of deep reflection and peace is the ocean shoreline. There are a couple of lovely shoreline trails. One of the most wonderful spiritual experiences we have had occurred this summer. During our honeymoon, we wanted to camp by the shoreline at Green Point campground, but were not able to. For over 30 years we aspired to spend a couple of nights there. Arriving around Noon this summer, we despaired of finding a site, but was astonished to find the one site we had always dreamed of camping on vacant. Those nights were some of the most beautiful we have ever spent camping. Behind us, the waves made their endless, eternal heartbeat on our doorstep. At night, as the sun set and the moon levitated, we observed people moving to the shore, clutching cups of warm liquid. They would often talk as they walked. A curious thing happened during the final setting of the sun. The people became silent. It was not just about the gorgeousness of the moment.
The death of the sun amongst the salty, wet heartbeat of the earth, reaches deep inside of you. The moon brings hope of luminous resurrection, but still, it is never really enough. There is some part of you that knows the death of the sun is but an echo of your own. And so, conversation stops, tea remains un-sipped and gratitude for life itself floats, if only for a brief visit, within you and among your companion strangers.
Gros Morne: Trails? Finest kind.

Gros Morne National Park: Trails? Finest kind.
Are there trails in Gros Morne? Finest kind, to use a Newfoundland colloquialism.
There are four sections of the Park: Gros Morne North, Gros Morne Central, Gros Morne Southeast and Gros Morne South. Discover interesting, beautiful trails in all four.
A previous posting told the evolving story of our relationship with the Green Gardens Trail. This post will describe two more favourites.
This trail is do-able for a group of hikers of diverse abilities, including the occasional elderly or small child hikers. We have often found trails rated "easy" to be, well, boring. However, this trail takes you along cobbled ocean beaches, alongside a fishing river, past dense tuckamore trees, into forests for a bit, then ends at Green Point where there is an excellent interpretive display about the importance of those astonishing cliffs. To add interest, there is an intriguing little collection of homes on the beach at Green Point with a wharf and a couple of boats. Much of the trail exists because it was previously used as a mail trail to this little collection of fisher homes.
The first time I hiked the trail (many years ago) Carl told me about these trees that were several hundred years old. They rivaled the redwoods, he said. For the life of me I could not see them. About halfway through the hike I demanded, "Where are these old trees you promised?" "You are standing on one," he said, "they are called 'tuckamores.'" I looked down to see my feet encroached on the lower branch of a hobbit tree. I had expected to see giant pines of some kind. Living next to the ocean, punched and ripped by the winter winds, these little gnarly pines grow slowly. To our delight, a little further along the cobbled path there were tuckamore trees that had grown together to create a series of caves. Our boys loved to go in under them when they were young. They didn't go too far because it gets pretty dark in there.
Another bonus of this particular hike is that, although it can get windy, on a really hot day there is no more refreshing place to be.

As you might expect, the 16 kilometres hike up and down Gros Morne mountain is one of the signature hikes of the Park. It takes 6 to 8 hours and so some basic planning needs to be done. You will need lots of water, some food and really good shoes. You will need to wild-pee, so bring biodegradable tissues, if you need them. The cobbles were the most difficult part of the hike going up. The cobbles are about 3 to 5 inches in diameter and scatter and shift as you walk on them. If you have flimsy shoes, you are doomed to wreck them and possibly your ankles. Once you get past the cobbles, the hike is steady and steep but is strangely rewarding if you keep looking back to see how far you have come. When you reach the peak, the panoramic view is predictably stunning. What is not predictable is the cloud cover. Make sure you go on a clear day or you are just as likely to get up there and see nothing but fog. It is a great thing for the Park that this hike is so popular. The bad thing about this trail is the pressure that this number of hikers places on the ecosystem. It is the only hike in any Park that we have been on where you have to be very clear and careful about hiking etiquette. Slow? Get out of the way of the ones behind you. Fast? Let people know you are coming behind them and say "thank you" when they move aside. Passing is no easy feat on some points of the trail. Gros Morne mountain participates in geocaching, which also requires some etiquette. Going down the mountain is more difficult that going up. The constant descent takes a toll on knees and ankles, but it does go quickly. Finally, it is weird to have to say this, but, people, if you have to do number 2 on the trail, bury it – all of it. Since no dogs are allowed on the trail, it is the humans creating this problem of human waste and associated tissue.
There are three favourite points on this trail: the beginning, the peak and the end. The beginning is a point of optimism, excitement, hope and some trepidation. The peak is place of beauty, rest and appreciation of the ancient wildness of Newfoundland. The end of the trail is a place of tired gratitude and a sense of accomplishment.

Gros Morne National Park trails: Green Gardens. Learning to hike the hard way.

Gros Morne National Park: The Green Gardens trail – sometimes you get lucky, sometimes you don't…
When Carl and I were honeymooning, young and stupid, we decided to hike the Green Gardens trail. In those days it was a 20-kilometre loop. It is no longer a twenty kilometre trail, in part because dumb people go unprepared, get lost, suffer from exposure or have to be rescued. We didn't get lost, exactly, but it was a miracle we did not suffer from exposure. We thought it sounded like a nice thing to do for an afternoon. It was heart-attack rugged. We traipsed up and down mountains, valleys, rock falls, shorelines and so on. I think we brought a bottle of water and nothing else. We were young and stubborn. Even when we knew we were in trouble, we just kept going. It was cold, drizzly and we were not wearing raingear, although our windbreaker jackets were euphemistically called "water-resistant."
At the beginning of the trail, about two kilometres in, we encountered a young British doctor who was doing a locum in Corner Brook. A young woman accompanied him. She wore shorts, pretty sandals and appeared soaked, sad and cold. As Carl and he talked, she conversed a little, shivering in her thin clothes. She was from Corner Brook and was flattered to be asked to hike with the handsome young physician. I could tell by the looks of resentment she flashed at him, the glamour was quickly fading. We said our good-byes. The Doctor appeared a little crestfallen. As we left we could hear them arguing. We encountered them on the next couple of kilometres as you do when you are on a trail. Sometimes we would stop to rest or wild-pee and they would catch up. Then, they just stopped catching up. I suspect the good, young Doctor's hope for a bit of sexual recreation that evening may have been in jeopardy.
We persevered. I became cranky as my out-of-shape legs and lungs struggled with the jagged terrain. I startled when we encountered lots of poop on the trail, which turned out to be sheep, not the herd of bears I feared. They look nothing alike (the poop or the animals) although I did not know that then, newbie as I was to hiking in deep Newfoundland woods. Carl knew the difference but I didn't believe him, because, well, the Green Gardens hike was endless and we had no more water and I wasn't in a mood to trust very deeply. Finally, we came to an interpretive panel which said, "You have hiked ten kilometres." We patted each other on the back and generally felt elated, then screamed "Nooooo! That means it's ten kilometres to go back!" Soon it would be dark. It began to rain. Parched, I opened my mouth to catch drops. I remembered my Canadian Armed Forces Reserve training from two summers before which taught us that fast moving water was safer. We decided to drink from the first fast-moving stream we could find. As we filled our lone bottle from it, a moose regarded us calmly a hundred feet away or so. Thirst slaked and bottle filled, we moved as fast as we could. Kilometre nineteen brought on semi-delirium with visions of sheep-bears sneaking up behind me. We staggered out, gingerly packed our aching limbs into our tiny Datsun and took the Woody Point Ferry (which no longer runs). We collapsed in our tent. After we had a bite to eat, we marshalled up the energy to have showers because we were filthy and cold. Carl had a lovely long, hot shower. The women's shower ran only cold that evening. He emerged looking like he stepped from the Sears catalogue. I simply emerged, growly. Suffice to say, the English Doctor wasn't the only one who missed out on recreation that night.
Like most stories of foolishness and/or hardship, this one became a favourite of ours, a kind of marital talisman tale. About every five years Carl and I would challenge ourselves to do the twenty-kilometre loop again. I am proud to say that we have always managed to finish it. We enjoyed, even relished, the newer experiences because we brought food, water, dogs and good gear. I will not lie, there have been times, particularly when I was recovering from cancer, when I thought the helicopters may have to come and pick us up. However, I still managed to stagger out. It has been a kind of "touchstone" hike for us. To finish it means all is well with us, with each other and with Newfoundland.
The rigour of the trail continued to confound other travellers as you can read in this CBC article, http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/ontario-family-hikes-gros-morne-in-the-dark-1.3696696. Possibly for this reason, as well as some upcoming needed pricey trail maintenance, Green Gardens has been modified to a nine-kilometre trail and is still rated as one of the top five wild flower trail hikes in the world. You can see forest, shoreline, volcanic stacks, valleys, streams, steep cliffs, grassy fields, marshes, wetlands, mountain tops and more. The sheep seem scarce these days, but there are plenty of moose, and probably bear, to keep you company.

Gros Morne National Park: a UNESCO World Heritage Site for lots of reasons
Many years ago, Carl and I spent our honeymoon in Gros Morne National Park, where, as you would hope, we fell even more in love with each other. What we did not expect was how deeply we would fall in love with Gros Morne National Park. I had trouble writing this post because it is so very difficult to convey into mere words such astonishing beauty. A combination of mountains, a freshwater fjord, the highest waterfall in eastern North America, salmon rivers, deep lakes, ocean seashore, dense forest and the occasional misty field make it a stunning buffet of panoramas. The multiple options available to explore these make it a struggle to choose your daily adventure!
Gros Morne is a UNESCO heritage site partly because of its picturesque splendour, but also because of its unique geological features. Orange, naked, mineral dense, weathered rock from the middle layer of the earth called the Tablelands, has been thrust up next to beautiful, forest-covered mountains through the stresses and strains of plate tectonics over 500 million years. You can walk on some of both in the span of a day. The geological tectonic thrusting about combined with glacial scouring during the last ice age to create interesting mountain cliffs, valleys and a freshwater fjord.The Tablelands of Gros Morne is one of the few places on earth where you can see, touch and walk on the Earth's mantle. Every time we go to Gros Morne I need to walk on the Tablelands, lay my hands on the wrinkled rock and just breathe. It feels like holy space to me. At Green Point, seaside cliffs are layered with markers of deep time. Fossils mark the boundary between the Cambrian and Ordovician periods. This is a geological benchmark for the rest of the world, referred to as "Green Point Time."
Green Point: plate tectonics make interesting patterns. All of these, including the section that looks like a castle "wall," were sculpted and cut by the earth's crust .
If you camp, time seems to bend at Gros Morne. The five campgrounds are well maintained with clean comfort stations and good showers. You can choose from forested areas, shoreline or mountain views. Newfoundland is one of the last bee, bat and bird havens in eastern Canada. Since it is an island, the diversity of mammal population is more limited than that of the Canadian mainland. You will notice that besides the occasional moose, there is very little roadkill on Newfoundland roads. There are no porcupines, racoons, snakes or gophers. Campsites therefore remain relatively unmolested by wildlife. Even bears tend to keep themselves scarce.
The hiking at Gros Morne is, I was told by global hikers, world class. There will be a separate blog describing some of the trails. Suffice to say, there are nineteen trails that explore unique aspects of this part of the world. There are many guided walks and some really excellent interpretive centres. You must get out and move around in Newfoundland to truly meet her. Luckily, when you get there, the land calls to you and you can't wait to get your walking shoes on. Having said that, be prepared. Newfoundland is rugged and the weather changeable.
Tabletop mountains
Many journeys culminate in Gros Morne National Park. Salmon make their epic voyage home to Gros Morne from their travels in oceanic parts unknown. You are able to fly fish in the Park, an activity that Carl says would beat any kind of meditation, yoga and mindfulness practice in terms of total body-mind relaxation. There are several companies that offer boat tours, kayaking tours and ocean fishing. Rocky Harbour is a tiny town inside the park which has certainly grown since we honeymooned in Gros Morne. You can find just about anything you may need there. It has a fish store where you can get the world's most delicious scallops and lobsters, often brought in that very day. If you prefer a cooked meal there are several restaurants.
We were told last summer about a really good fish-and-chip place in Rocky Harbour so we dropped by at about noon. Usually if a restaurant is good, there will be lots of people in it. I was one of two customers so I wondered if we were in the wrong place. I looked at the waitress and asked, "Where is everybody? There's no one here." She put down her cloth, looked over her glasses and said, "They strikes about 12:30." It took me a moment to realize she meant that's when the customers come. Newfoundland has a famously unique dialect. Often phrases or words refer back to fishing. I remembered that when lots of fish start biting the fishing lines they are said to have "struck." Also, on that note, most Newfoundlanders expect a real lake to be gigantic (by Mainlander standards). Most bodies of fresh water tend to be called "ponds." When we first moved to Nova Scotia from Newfoundland thirty-three years ago, we saw Dollar Lake, shook our heads and Carl said, "I scoffs at dat. It's a pond, b'y." With that in mind, to explore Western Brook Pond requires a substantial trip in a large boat, which is well worth doing.
Explore local culture in Rocky Brook and other nearby towns. Newfoundlanders are some of the friendliest people you will ever meet.

Within the sciences, there has typically been a delineation between two broad camps; theoreticians and experimentalists. Over the last two decades, a third branch has sprung up to fill a void that remained. These are the computational scientists. Using theoretical formulations as inputs into computer-based algorithms, these researchers attempt to couple pure theory and experiment in ways that guide efforts and minimize unnecessary work.
It seems certain that the presence of computing in our everyday lives will only increase in the coming years. The need for students well versed in the field is also showing dramatic growth. In response to that demand, the Computer Science Department at Missouri State is modifying its programs, expecting that the changes will improve the training provided to their students. This week Dr.
Listen in as Dr. Cornelison talks on the subject of working in the sciences and giving students an idea of what's to come in their future.
