Predicting coral disease outbreaks in the Pacific Ocean
The goal of the proposed research is to develop better models of coral disease outbreak risk across the western tropical Pacific Ocean and embed these improved forecasts into the NOAA Coral Reef Watch decision support system (DSS). The current DSS was developed based on ~50 km SST data, and it assesses coral disease risk for the Great Barrier Reef and the Hawaiian archipelago using (i) a Seasonal Outlook from winter-time conditions that is (ii) updated in near real-time through the summer period. The ecological models used in the experimental disease risk DSS were derived by assessing the relationship between sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies and a single coral disease, Acropora white syndrome, on the Great Barrier Reef. We propose to improve these disease forecasts by (1) increasing the spatial resolution of SST-based predictions tools to 5 km, through application of NASA/NOAA satellite products, and expanding the application to several different coral diseases, host species and regions; (2) incorporating Short-Term Forecasts (four-month projections) of SST to augment the post-winter risk; (3) incorporating ocean color data from NASA/NOAA satellite products into the models, if robust relationships are found; and (4) undertaking additional coral disease observations, using targeted surveys and innovative bioassays that provide measurements with enhanced sensitivity. The disease forecasting models will be developed for locations in the western tropical Pacific Ocean that have existing long-term (~decade-long) observations of coral disease (i.e., Hawaii, Australia, US affiliated Pacific Islands), but the approach could subsequently be replicated in other coral reef regions. The proposed research addresses several goals of the Earth Science Research Program by developing a system to better predict changes in coral health in the face of ongoing climate change, and enabling researchers, managers and the public to use these forecasting models to better understand and respond to future disease outbreaks. This project specifically addresses the ROSES 2016 research announcement A.46 section 3.1.3, Managing Marine Ecosystems in a Time of Changing Climate through Better Forecasts, by using time series of biological observations (14 years of coral health surveys, physiological data from bioassays) and time series of climate observations (e.g., sea surface temperature anomalies, chlorophyll-a concentrations) to develop an ecological modeling framework that predicts coral disease risk based on ongoing satellite-derived inputs and accounts for uncertainties in climate-disease relationships and uncertainties in the estimates of disease risk.
Hawai'i Monitoring and Reporting Collaborative
The Hawai'i Monitoring and Reporting Collaborative, HIMARC, synthesizes coral reef survey data from the NOAA, DAR, TNC, CRAMP, NPS, and other marine organizations into a unified database. This database is updated every 2-3 years and has been used by a wide variety of projects including Ocean Tipping Points and the Main Hawaiian Islands Biogeographic Assessment. Currently, the HIMARC team is working to develop spatially explicit Bayesian hierarchical models of expected reef ecosystem states with and without specific types of human impacts around the main Hawaiian Islands. These models will be used to help inform management decisions as part of the Sustainable Hawai'i Initiative to effectively manage 30% of Hawai'i's nearshore resources by 2030.
The vulnerability of coral reefs to climate change, eutrophication, sedimentation, and other human-related threats has created an eruption of studies focusing on the impact of human activities on coral reef health. Historically, coral reef research has focused on the corals themselves and the resource species in which they support. However, many of the less charismatic cryptofauna that live within the cracks and crevices of the reef play a vital role in the reefs ability to bounce back from acute or long lasting disturbances. Many of these cryptic organisms are bioeroders — animals and algae that naturally breakdown the calcium carbonate skeleton formed by corals. Understanding the baseline bioerosion rates on reefs and how these rates may change in the future is important because reefs will only persist if bioerosion rates are slower than coral growth, or accretion rates […]
CAMEO: Multiscale modeling of coral communities
A key challenge in the effective management of marine ecosystems is translating from small-scale studies of distribution and dynamics to the regional scale of management action. In many marine ecosystems, including the Hawaiian Archipelago, there are extensive survey data of nearshore communities from multiple investigators, representing a huge investment of resources. Often, these data are underutilized and remain of limited use to managers. In the Hawaiian Archipelago, at least seven separate entities are engaged in surveys of coral reef communities, with varying degrees of coordination. The synthesis of these data requires integrated modeling approaches at multiple scales […]
Monitoring invasive species in the Northwest Hawaiian Islands
There are >200 marine introduced species in the main Hawaiian Islands. Some of these species are highly invasive, spreading from points of introduction (e.g., Pearl Harbor) throughout the state and having substantial impacts on native species and ecosystem function. In the Papahanaumokua Marine National Monument, fewer than 20 introduced species have been documented. Of the documented species, most are centered around Midway, which has been the center of maritime activities in the NWHI, and are most common in anthropogenic habitats, like docks and constructed islands. I am collaborating with Scott Godwin, the invasive species specialist for the Monument, to design a monitoring protocol for the NWHI that assess the current distribution of known introductions, detect increases in densities or spatial extent of known introductions, and 3) detect new introductions.
Scaling-up Petrolisthes cinctipes dynamics
In marine communities, planktonic larval dispersal decouples local fecundity from local settlement, and there is often large spatial variation in settlement. While both larval supply and post-settlement processes contribute to local dynamics, the interaction between them has received less attention. Spatial theory demonstrates that this interaction between local nonlinearities (post-settlement processes) and spatial heterogeneity (e.g., variation in larval supply) is critical to scaling from local to regional dynamics. To empirically investigate this interaction, I studied Petrolisthes cinctipes, an intertidal porcelain crab that occurs in cobblefields of the northeast Pacific.
For P. cinctipes and its predators, there are three important scales of variation: individual variation in size, rock-to-rock variation in density, and site-to-site variation in density, larval supply, and predation. Combining field surveys of spatial variation with field and laboratory experiments to estimate a rock-scale population model, I predicted regional population dynamics of P. cinctipes using scale transition theory. Scale transition theory identifies the relative importance of individual, rock, and site-scale variation and covariation and on the regional scale. Regional population dynamics differed from local dynamics: (i) gregarious settlement enhanced regional recruitment, (ii) regional recruitment was lowered by positive covariance between predators and larval supply, and (iii) intraspecific competition had a stronger impact at the regional scale due to rock-scale aggregation. Overall, spatial heterogeneity decreased population growth rates at the regional scale compared to the local scale.
Allee effects, conspecific cueing, and gregarious settlement
Populati on models often assume that organisms disperse or settle without regard to habitat quality, competition, or other environmental parameters. Clearly, this is not the case, and these behaviors change the spatial variances and covariances that are so critical in spatial population models. In Petrolisthes cinctipes, larvae settled gregariously even though experiments demonstrated strong, size-dependent intraspecific competition in P. cinctipes. One explanation is that adults provide some direct benefit to settlers, such as decreased predation. However, an optimal habitats P. cinctipeselection model, indicated that I demonstrated that such a direct benefit is unlikely to generate the pattern of settlement that I found in , and that settlers must be responding to adults as an indicator of habitat quality. The next step in this research is to develop a general framework for considering the covariation between habitat quality and conspecific density in habitat selection models. Donahue, MJ. 2006. Conspecific cueing and growth-mortality tradeoffs jointly lead to conspecific attraction. Oecologia. 149: 33-43.
Predator foraging and prey distributions
W orking with Drs. Bob Desharnais and Carlos Robles, we are using a multiple-model approach to investigate how predator foraging behavior influences patterns of size- and spatial- structure in mussel beds. Using geo-referenced images of mussel beds from Barkley Sound, we are testing the predictions of spatial models against the empirical patterns formed in the field.

A while back, Dave ordered a weather station. His research pointed to the Ambient Weather WS-2000 as the best bang for the buck as far as accuracy (after it's calibrated, which is a time consuming and exacting process where you compare readings to a known-good mercury thermometer, a process that I suspect most weather station owners don't bother with).
Having the console readout and the Ambient "dashboard" is all very nice, but of course, being a data geek, I wanted a way to get the data myself, so I could plot it, save it or otherwise process it. And that's where Ambient falls short. The console, though it's already talking on wi-fi, gives you no way to get the data. They sell a separate unit called an "Observer" that provides a web page you can scrape, and we actually ordered one, but it turned out to be buggy and difficult to use, giving numbers that were substantially different from what the console showed, and randomly failing to answer, and we ended up returning the observer for a refund.
The other way of getting the data is online. Ambient provides an API you can use for that purpose, if you email them for a key. It mostly works, but it sometimes lags considerably behind real time, and it seems crazy to have to beg for a key and then get data from a company website that originated in our own backyard.
What I really wanted to do was read the signal from the weather station directly. I'd planned for ages to look into how to do that, but I'm a complete newbie to software defined radio and wasn't sure where to start. Then one day I noticed an SDR discussion on the #raspberrypi IRC channel on Freenode where I often hang out. I jumped in, asked some questions, and got pointed in the right direction and referred to the friendly and helpful #rtlsdr Freenode channel.
On the experts' advice, I ordered a RTL-SDR Blog R820T2 RTL2832U 1PPM TCXO SMA Software Defined Radio with 2x Telescopic Antennas on Amazon. This dongle apparently has better temperature compensation than cheaper alternatives, it came with a couple of different antenna options, and I was told it should work well with Linux using a program called rtl_433.
rtl_433 already knows the protocol for the WS-2000, so I didn't even need to do any decoding or reverse engineering; it produces a running account of the periodic signals being broadcast from the station. rtl_433 also helpfully offers -F json and -F csv options, along with a few other formats. What a great program!
JSON turned out to be the easiest for me to use; initially I thought CSV would be more compact, but rtl_433's CSV format includes fields for every possible quantity a weather station could ever broadcast. When you think about it, that makes sense: once you're outputting CSV you can't add a new field in mid-stream, so you'd better be ready for anything. JSON, on the other hand, lets you report just whatever the weather station reports, and it's easy to parse from nearly any programming language.
Once I knew the dongle was working, I needed to verify what frequency the weather station was using for its broadcasts. What I really wanted was something that would scan frequencies around 915M and tell me what it found. Everyone kept pointing me to a program called Gqrx. But it turns out Gqrx on Linux requires PulseAudio and absolutely refuses to work or install without it, even if you have no interest in playing audio. I didn't want to break my system's sound (I've never managed to get sound working reliably under PulseAudio), and although it's supposedly possible to build Gqrx without Pulse, it's a difficult build: I saw plenty of horror stories, and it requires Boost, always a sign that a build will be problematic. I fiddled with it a little but decided it wasn't a good time investment.
I eventually found a scanner that worked: RTLSDR-Scanner. It let me set limiting frequencies and scan between them, and by setting it to accumulate, I was able to verify that indeed, the weather station (or something else!) was sending a signal on 915 MHz. I guess by then, the original problem had fixed itself, and after that, rtl_433 started showing me signals from the weather station. It's not super polished, but it's the only scanner I've found that works without requiring PulseAudio.
This on a day when it hadn't rained in ages. What was up with that "rainfall_mm" : 90.678 ?
I asked on the rtl_433 list and got a prompt and helpful answer: it's a cumulative number, since some unspecified time in the past (possibly the last time the battery was changed?) So as long as I make a note of the rainfall_mm number, any change in that number means new rainfall.
This being a snowy winter, I haven't been able to test that yet: the WS-2000 doesn't measure snowfall unless some snow happens to melt in the rain cup.
Some of the other numbers, like uv and uvi, are in mysterious unknown units and sometimes give results that make no sense (why doesn't uv go to zero at night? You're telling me that there's that much UV in starlight?), but I already knew that was an issue with the Ambient. It's not rtl_433's fault.
I notice that the numbers are often a bit different from what the Ambient API reports; apparently they do some massaging of the numbers, and the console has its own adjustment factors too. We'll have to do some more calibration with a mercury thermometer to see which set of numbers is right.
Anyway, cool stuff! It took no time at all to write a simple client for my WatchWeather web app that runs rtl_433 and monitors the JSON output. I already had WatchWeather clients collecting reports from Raspberry Pi Zero Ws sitting at various places in the house with temperature/humidity sensors attached; and now my WatchWeather page can include the weather station itself.
Meanwhile, we donated another weather station to the Los Alamos Nature Center, though it doesn't have the SDR dongle, just the normal Ambient console reporting to Wunderground.
The steps for modifying the file are fairly easy, but they have to be done a lot.
First there's the problem of Firefox updates: if a new omni.ja is part of the update, then your changes will be overwritten, so you'll have to make them again on the new omni.ja.
But, worse, even aside from updates they don't stay changed. I've had Ctrl-W mysteriously revert back to its old wired-in behavior in the middle of a Firefox session. I'm still not clear how this happens: I speculate that something in Firefox's update mechanism may allow parts of omni.ja to be overridden, even though I was told by Mike Kaply, the onetime master of overlays, that they weren't recommended any more (at least by users, though that doesn't necessarily mean they're not used for updates).
But in any case, you can be browsing merrily along and suddenly one of your changes doesn't work any more, even though the change is still right there in browser/omni.ja. And the only fix I've found so far is to download a new Firefox and re-apply the changes. Re-applying them to the current version doesn't work -- they're already there. And it doesn't help to keep the tarball you originally downloaded around so you can re-install that; firefox updates every week or two so that version is guaranteed to be out of date.
All this means that it's crazy not to script the omni changes so you can apply them easily with a single command. So here's a shell script that takes the path to the current Firefox, unpacks browser/omni.ja, makes a couple of simple changes and re-packs it. I called it kitfox-patch since I used to call my personally modified Firefox build "Kitfox".
Of course, if your changes are different from mine you'll want to edit the script to change the sed commands.
I hope eventually to figure out how it is that omni.ja changes stop working, and whether it's an overlay or something else, and whether there's a way to re-apply fixes without having to download a whole new Firefox. If I figure it out I'll report back.
My article on Fixing key bindings in Firefox Quantum by modifying the source tree got attention from several people who offered helpful suggestions via Twitter and email on how to accomplish the same thing using just files in omni.ja, so it could be done without rebuilding the Firefox source. That would be vastly better, especially for people who need to change something like key bindings or browser messages but don't have a souped-up development machine to build the whole browser.
Brian Carpenter had several suggestions and eventually pointed me to an old post by Mike Kaply, Don't Unpack and Repack omni.ja[r] that said there were better ways to override specific files.
I was a little put off by all the warnings unzip gave, but kept going.
Of course, you can just edit those two files rather than using sed; but the sed command was Paul's way of being very specific about the changes he was suggesting, which I appreciated.
Also note the flags like safe-mode and no-remote, plus disabling plugins -- all good ideas when testing something new.
And it worked! When I started up, I got the new message, "Search or just twiddle your thumbs", in the URL bar.
I typed a few words in the google search field that came up, deleted them with Ctrl-W -- all was good! Thanks, Paul! And Brian, and everybody else who sent suggestions.
Why are the sizes so different?
So apparently Mozilla's omni.ja is using no compression at all. It may be that that makes it start up a little faster; but Quantum takes so long to start up that any slight difference in uncompressing omni.ja isn't noticable to me.
I was able to run through this whole procedure on my poor slow netbook, the one where building Firefox took something like 15 hours ... and in a few minutes I had a working modified Firefox. And with the sed command, this is all scriptable, so it'll be easy to re-do whenever Firefox has a security update. Win!
Update: I have a simple shell script to do this: Script to modify omni.ja for a custom Firefox.

Ordered a bison sandwich on a weekday for lunch. The food was delivered on time, but these guys blatantly ignored the "special instructions" section (e.g., no onions, dressing on the side). They got the sides right - baked sweet potato and steamed veggies. And they described them appropriately. No seasoning, just plain vegetables baked or steamed. Very bland. Same with the "bison burger" which was a cold, charred, dried-out puck that was inedible. I will not be ordering from this establishment again.

A really good, decent place. I've been ordering from them for a while, stopped for years, then just came back again and ordered their South American Burrito. I'm writing this review to say that this a really solid burrito. Even if you're not a big fan of spicy like I am, get it just mildly spicy like I did as it makes a lot of different. Other favorites: steamed sweet potato, Healthy Shakes, and the Peanut Butter Choco Shake.

Asked for a 1pm delivery and the food arrived half an hour LATE. When I called at 1:15 to ask where the delivery was, I was told that the delivery guy was sent out 'ten minutes ago' - when I asked why he would be sent out AFTER the delivery time (silly me to not understand the delivery time warp system they have) he replied with, listen he just left... ya, good answer that was super helpful. Food was mediocre at best, my salmon was super over cooked. I'm not sure why seamless gives then 5 stars?

Great taste and super healthy, I always order from them! Love the super protein platter (spicy) and their hummus is great too.

I cannot understand why this place has a 5 star rating. The food is both under and overcooked, the flavors are not good and after only a few bites I am left feeling sick to my stomach. I cannot recommend this food.

I can't say enough good things about this place. Delivery is super fast, even during peak times (unless you order the protein pancakes - those seem to take awhile). Standouts are the baked falafel, hummus, taco salads and all the desserts. Plus, the guys who work behind the counter are awesome - always so nice and friendly. The other night I had placed an order on Seamless and when I came to pick it up, one of them told me that they were out of the apple pie I had ordered, so he replaced it with something else and told me to write a note in the comments section next time I order and he will include one for free. I thought that was nice but didn't bother to do it the next time I ordered, which was several days later. But, he remembered and put one in anyway. Now THAT's customer service. I only wish they were open on Sundays!

Order from you guys a couple times a week. Chastised by a delivery driver today on order #393187830. Not what I want to deal with when trying to get breakfast so will be unlikely to continue ordering without assurances something is done to prevent this.

Another place my wife loves but I cannot stand. I think she just likes places that serve DRY Chicken. If you have ever ordered a salad from this place, please tell me your chicken was dry too! I've ordered from this place a few times and every time the chicken was so dry I could not swallow it. However, my wife begs to differ. I personally feel that she just cannot admit it.

Good healthy food and usually very prompt delivery. I order this for lunch 2-3 times a week. My favorite is the Open Sesame. The "large" size on their protein plates is huge, so go with the "small" if you want a normal serving size.

I love natureworks. i think their food is top notch. I trust that the food they make for me is healthy with the right ingredients. My kids love the food too - the pizza & pasta - they love it. I could take away a star based on the delivery time, which is usually 45 - 1 hr - its a drawback. But good food takes time, and they are usually busy. So five stars from me!

Natureworks is great! Everything there is fresh, natural and minimally processed. It really helps me round out my menu with vegan & whole food choices with fast delivery. They do have one quirk in how they prepare food. Sometimes, they leave things out that should be together or put things together that should be apart. I received my bison with veggies and turkey bacon with the turkey bacon on the side not in the wrap. I did not order it as a side, but in the wrap. Weird My colleague ordered egg whites with chili and it came with fried eggs and chili dumped on top of it. Nothing wrong, just slight misunderstandings about what is put together and what is expected separately. All in all I enjoy eating here.

I LOVE their salmon salad. It's exactly what they promise - bed of yummy salad greens and a nicely cooked salmon filet. Very healthy. Fast delivery. I've also had their chicken guac salad - which is very good as well. They are my go-to place for a healthy meal delivery. And if you're wanting a little something sweet their carrot cake is pretty delicious. I'd say it's more like a carrot bread though: nice and moist - no frosting.

Ridiculous! Ordered almost two hours ago though restaurant estimated 30 min delivery time. I called after over an hour waiting and inquired about the status...they put the phone down and I could hear them talking in background to each other ...not to customers. After waiting five min I hung up and called seamless to cancel but waited for 20 min on hold so hung up and called restaurant back...they put phone down again without letting me know they were putting me on hold...then finally told me I should get it in ten min but they were out of one of the items I ordered...aka you forgot about my order or you would have called to notify me sooner...told me they were subbing it for something I don't like and offered no apologies or discount. I never complain and let a lot slide but they will never get my business again and as a once a day seamless order who has never complained about restaurant or he site...seamless should offer a better recourse to cancel in these situations...pay way too much for he service for inconveniences like this.

The hummus/falafel burrito was good, but they ignored the special instructions to add an avocado to my smoothie "because you didn't pay for the avocado." I'm not sure why they didn't charge me for the avocado, but they ended up making the whole smoothie again and collecting $1 from me (for the avocado!) on the second delivery. Which is fine. Just inefficient and annoying. Here's a tip, Natureworks: improve your add-on options, especially for smoothies! I like to add bananas and avocados to my smoothies whenever possible, and I'm not the only one!

Posted 7 years ago by Ali Y.
Ordered the "ultimate plate". Food arrived promptly and was hot. The chicken was spicy and tasty but somewhat overcooked and dry. Veggies, rice and pita were OK but, WHERE IS THE HUMMUS? They either forgot to send it, or just assumed I would not notice. The hummus is the reason why I ordered this plate in the first place! Don't cheat on me, Natureworks! You just missed a 5-star rating!

I have been ordering from Natureworks for a few months now, and the consistent good quality is amazing. It's fresh, delivery is always fast, and unlike most of the other "healthy" delivery options, their food actually tastes good. Not good for being healthy, but just plain good. I especially like the Bison feta wrap, and yes, spicy means spicy! I just hope I don't jinx myself by writing a good review.

Say no to the Farmer's Market. I couldn't even finish it I disliked it so much. However the Protein Plate with Chicken and Rice covered in Lentil Soup is amazing. That is the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 2.

Got the Chicken Plate. Chicken is terribly dry. Barely any peppers/onions -- just mostly brown rice and dry chicken smothered in marinara. I will probably order from them again, but I will try something completely different like a sandwich. Chicken is just so dry and tasteless.

Good food, but DO NOT ORDER IF YOU'RE IN A RUSH. Very long delivery times. As I write this review, I have been waiting for 1 hr and 10 minutes. (I live 5 blocks from the restaurant.) I just called and they said, "It's being made -- I mean it's on its way." I have experienced very slow delivery times every time I have ordered from here (but never this bad). So, only order from here if you have a couple of hours to spare.

The bison burger & veggies were overcooked and so dry that I had to drink water between bites to finish the food. The carrots cracked my teeth and reminded me to schedule a dentist appointment. ~400 calories for $10.

We've ordered from this restaurant a few times before and had good experiences, but this order was not good at all. The tuna salad on our greens was shaped like a can, or a tupperware container and just piled on the mixed greens, which by itself would be ok, but after we started eating, we actually encountered chunks of "Tuna Ice", which really was not appetizing. The sweet potatoes were good, or else this would have been a 1 star experience. Don't get lazy Natureworks. There are too many other choices for healthy food in this neighborhood!

Just ordered from Natureworks for the first time and the food is really good (got the Hot & Steamy), but it is much saltier than I thought it would be. I expected the tomato sauce to have salt, but the chicken is also seasoned with salt and it doesn't need it. I try this place again and hope that they have seen this review.

Sometimes the 'institutional church' does something that really amazes me when they decided that technology is a good thing. Surely they must have been ordaining technogeeks as a matter of course for the past few decades as evidenced by the Church of England Website. Firstly, the discovery that the lectionary was available for a palm pilot/blackberry/whatever came as quite a shock. Well today I am sitting here in a state of shock. I was browsing the CofE's liturgy online when I came across a like that will allow you to set up a feed for the daily office. The CofE will literally beam changing daily prayers into your website.
I wonder if I should try setting up a common worship prayer page here at changingworship… how emergingly unemergent would that be??
I was quite impressed with Jesuit Media Initiatives who, hot on the heels of the success of their Sacred Space website (daily prayer in the stylee of good old Iggy, himself – Natius, that is, not Pop, thankfully) came up with pray-as-you-go.org, daily prayer/meditation podcasts for your i-pod. Have your 'quiet time' on the 7.30 train…alternatively fall asleep over your complimentary copy of Metro.
Oh Carole, I am but a fool…. do you mind if I turn this into a resource on the resource page?
I imagine the Jesuits would be chuffed to little mintballs if you did!


Chromag brings BMX-style energy, innovation and flair to the mountain bike industry.
Chromag founder Ian Ritz's first off-road bike had no rear suspension, a tiny four-stroke motor and Honda Z50 printed on the gas tank. It was the then-12-year-old's primary mode of transportation growing up on a grain farm on the pancake-flat plains of Manitoba.
It wasn't until he finished high school that Ritz moved to Whistler and discovered the area's thriving mountain bike scene. Four years later he cofounded Evolution Bike Shop at the base of the resort. Then in 2003 Ritz switched gears and began developing hardtail frames and components specifically for the rigors of his local riding. Chromag produced eight frames and 100 stems its first year, but has continued to grow steadily since. The company's handlebars, in particular, have become a favorite of riders the world over.
In 1990, you were 19 years old, just moved to Whistler and bought your first mountain bike. What happened next? I quickly destroyed it and then continued to buy more bikes. Coming from the prairie out east, the presence of bikes [in Whistler] was very real and significant. I hung out at the local shop at the time, Climb High Cycle, that carried all the cool stuff—frames from Steve Potts, Salsa, Bontrager, WTB. My first hand-built bike was a Salsa. I had a couple of them; I owned the second one when we opened Evolution in 1994. That's when the full-suspension thing kicked in. It was actually that initial wave of full-suspension popularity that got me and a lot of my customers into hardtails.
How's that? Back then suspension bikes were not very reliable—pivots and bearings and frame parts were always breaking. People would get all these new bikes with all these new parts and then after the frame started breaking down they'd end up putting the parts on the old hardtail. A lot of those frames weren't up to it though, and then people started breaking the hardtails. I wanted a hardtail that could match the new components and the new demands, but still maintain that classic beauty of a hand-built bike.new components and the new demands, but still maintain that classic beauty of a hand-built bike.
But now that full-suspension bikes have gotten so much better, is there still a place for hardtails?
The last thing I'd try to say is that dualies are inferior in any way or don't have a place. I don't subscribe to hardtails because of some sense of righteousness. They just represent a part of riding that I love—the idea that you can have a bike for a lifetime. The longer you own it, the more connection you have to it. Here's this awesome machine that weighs 30 pounds and represents a small percentage of your body weight, but gives you superhuman abilities. It's an extension of your body. It has beauty and meaning and it's personal. You can never have that with full suspension. Those bikes become outdated, the pivots break or wear out. I don't know where those bikes go, but they just cease to exist.
Walk us through the Chromag bike lineup.
We have three models made in Canada: The Samurai is our most popular, the Sakura is the lightest, and the TRL is the heaviest. We have two others made in Taiwan: the Monk, which is a pure jumper, and the Stylus, a freeride hardtail. We produce roughly 200 frames a year in Canada, and about the same number come from Taiwan. We make the frames because we're passionate about them and I feel they're very central to our business. But Whistler isn't exactly an industrial zone and making them is probably just about the most inefficient thing we do. We really operate as two businesses—a niche frame company and a comprehensive component brand. In a way it's a funny duality, because most of our components are going on full-suspension bikes.
The Fubar OSX handlebar. It's our widest bar, and width is one of the marks we've been nailing in the last few years to make our bars more relevant. Because it's been our best seller, it has the most breadth in color and finish variety. We opened last season with two chrome, three anodized and three paint finishes—so eight different bars. Over the summer we kept releasing new paint and new anodized finishes, and at the end of the year we had 16 different varieties. I'm getting more and more interested in getting away from the whole model-year thing altogether. Some of the bigger distribution systems out there may have some trouble with that, but we're enjoying being creative and moving quickly.
It seems Chromag saddles have longer, wider noses than a lot of what else is available. What's the thinking behind the design?
I don't know where the mentality came from to make saddles look like a knife's edge. Maybe it's from road bikes and the desire to make things as thin as possible, but in my world mountain bikers are using the entire saddle, moving all around it. We make every part touchable and complementary to the body. The noses on our saddles are wider because sometimes you have to sit on the nose to keep traction, and the sides are rounded because sometimes you have to lean on them to hold a line. Plastic aero points sticking out from the tails of some saddles just defies logic for me, but I suppose it's also our opportunity, so we'll take it.
You're designing products for one of the most demanding riding environments in the world, but it also means your products might be overkill for everywhere else. Does being based in Whistler cut both ways?
I see our location as one of our primary advantages, if just for the volume of field research we can do. There is so much feedback and so much opinion—so many resources in terms of learning what's working and what's not. We recognize there are many different regions and cultures, and ours is just one. In some respects Whistler sets standards, in others we're irrelevant. In areas that relate to us and our riding environment, I think we can offer something very relevant.

Who is the richest casino owner? – Roulette Strategies $3000/Day
The answer is Jeffrey Epstein, an American casino billionaire, financier, and convicted sex offender. He is the wealthiest person in the US because his Epstein Global Management (the same operation now being investigated for the alleged sex trafficking of girls for sex in Africa) allegedly controls many of the country's richest casinos and most profitable hotels.
The government has been paying his legal bills, but Epstein has been paying it off by putting his name on many properties including the Harrah's Casino in Las Vegas.
Is he connected to the Trump family? It is difficult to say, as Trump is only a wealthy guest at the casino. Epstein himself claimed that he is related to Donald Trump, claiming that his father died during a charity auction held by Jeffrey Epstein.
How does a billionaire child sex trafficker get involved with the Clintons?
If there is a connection of any kind, it has been a very short lived one. It started in the early 1990's, when Jeffrey Epstein began paying Bill Clinton to attend at least one of Epstein's sex parties.
During that period, the Washington Post reported that "the Clintons were at least aware that Epstein had been working on the sexual-exploitation front without payment and that one of Epstein's girlfriends worked for them in 1995."
On February 28th, 1998, the Washington Post wrote an article titled "Jeffrey Epstein's Life Offers First, Alleged Case of Sex Traffic," which also reported that Epstein "has received hundreds of millions of dollars from Bill Clinton, who was president at the time, as payments for sexually exploiting underage girls."
These allegations have never been fully investigated.

These allegations have never been fully investigated. It is rumored that Jeffrey Epstein has been paid to keep quiet about these allegations.
However, when it was discovered in 2008, that Bill Clinton was being paid $450,000 a year by Epstein, he called for an investigation into the billionaire's activities.
Epstein was sentenced to 18 months in jail for "sex-trafficking minors" for his role in the purchase of thousands of young girls into prostitution. Even after being convicted, Clinton

Apple revenue from App Store up 28% to record $64 bn in 2020: Report
By IANS | New Delhi | Last Updated at January 09 2021 12:28 IST
Topics Apple | Apple app store | Apple iOS
Apple made a record $64 billion in revenue from its App Store in 2020, 28 per cent increase from an estimated $50 billion the tech giant generated from the App Store in 2019.
According to an analysis by CNBC, this marks a solid growth for the App Store since the estimated increase between 2018 and 2019 was only 3.1 per cent.
All made $48.5 billion in 2018 from its App Store.
"App Store sales growth accelerated strongly during the Covid-19 pandemic," the report said on Friday.
Apple's App Store reported $53.7 billion in sales in Apple's fiscal 2020, which ended in September.
Beginning this year, Apple is charging smaller developers who make less than $1 million per year on its platforms 15 per cent fee, instead of 30 per cent.
If a participating developer surpasses the $1 million threshold, the standard commission rate will apply for the remainder of the year, Apple said.
If a developer's business falls below the $1 million threshold in a future calendar year, they can requalify for the 15 per cent commission the year after.
Apple said the new "App Store Small Business Programme" will benefit the vast majority of developers who sell digital goods and services on the store, providing them with a reduced commission on paid apps and in-app purchases.
Apple doesn't disclose how much revenue its App Store makes per year.
The company has paid developers $200 billion since 2008, up $45 billion from the figure that was announced in January 2020.
"If that's equal to 70 per cent of App Store sales, then the App Store grossed around $64 billion last year".
Despite the Covid-19 pandemic that affected Apple's retail operation globally, the company has exceeded its internal financial targets in the past fiscal year.

Phillies MLB All-Star Games: 1976
The city of Philadelphia has played host to the Major League Baseball All-Star Game four times in the 83-year history of baseball's midsummer classic.
In both 1943 and 1952 the game was held at Shibe Park, with the NL taking the first by a 5-3 score and the AL coming back with a 3-2 victory in the second game at the old ballpark at 22nd and Lehigh that would later be renamed as Connie Mack Stadium. The Phillies were listed as the official hosts of the 1952 game.
The last two times that the game was played here in 1976 and 1996, Veteran's Stadium was the scene of the festivities. Citizens Bank Park has yet to do the honors, though reports are that the game will return to South Philly in 2026.
Let's take a quick look back at that 1976 version of baseball's Midsummer Classic which played out in front of 63,974 fans including the President of the United States at The Vet during the celebration of America's Bicentennial in the summer of 1976.
It was a great time for both the city and for the team to be hosting the game. Of course, Philadelphia is one of the most important historic cities in the United States, and thus having one of the American pastime's showcase events here as the nation was celebrating its 200th birthday was almost a no-brainer.
For the Phillies part, the team had begun emerging over the previous two seasons as legitimate contenders in the National League after nearly a decade of futility.
With the opening of Veteran's Stadium in 1971, the trade for Steve Carlton in 1972, and an influx of homegrown talent the team was primed to make a run at the NL East Division crown that summer. In fact, they would capture that crown, and the next two in succession as well.
As a nod to this emerging talent base, the Phillies placed five players on that 1976 NL All-Star squad, with left fielder Greg Luzinski elected by the fans as the starter in left field.
Joining 'The Bull' on the NL roster were 3/4 of the team's starting infield: second baseman Dave Cash, shortstop Larry Bowa, and third baseman Mike Schmidt.
Catcher Bob Boone was chosen as a reserve on the NL team, and Phillies manager Danny Ozark served as a coach.
Only the National League manager Sparky Anderson from Cincinnati's 'Big Red Machine', the defending World Series champions who would go on to win another that October, had placed more players on the squad.
The Reds had seven NL All-Stars, including future Phillies Pete Rose, Joe Morgan, and Tony Perez.
Appearing as reserves with the NL squad were former Phillies pitcher Woody Fryman, then of the Montreal Expos, former and future Phillies pitcher Dick Ruthven then of the Atlanta Braves, future Phillies first baseman Al Oliver, and outfielder Bake McBride, who would be traded to the Phillies the following June.
Rose, Ruthven, and McBride would all go on to become key contributors to the Phillies 1980 World Series championship squad. But that's a story for another day.
Luzinski was slotted into the fifth spot in Anderson's starting lineup. Rose led off, followed by first baseman Steve Garvey of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Morgan hit third and center fielder George Foster batted in the cleanup spot.
Behind Luzinski came the Reds catcher Johnny Bench, followed by Chicago Cubs right field masher Dave Kingman, shortstop Dave Concepcion of Cincinnati, and finally the starting pitcher, Randy Jones of the San Diego Padres.
The American League, managed by Darrell Johnson of the Boston Red Sox, featured starters from six different teams, three from the Detroit Tigers. One of his reserves players on the AL squad was former Phillies infielder Don Money.
Leading off for the American League was one of those Tigers, left fielder Ron LeFlore. Next came sweet-swinging Rod Carew of the Minnesota Twins was at first base. Kansas City Royals dynamic third baseman George Brett batted third.
Hitting in the cleanup spot was New York Yankees catcher Thurman Munson. Boston's Fred Lynn, who was the reigning AL MVP and Rookie of the Year, hit in the fifth position. He was followed by shortstop Toby Harrah of the Texas Rangers, right fielder Rusty Staub of the Tigers, and second baseman Bobby Grich of the Baltimore Orioles.
On the mound and batting 9th for the junior circuit was the most colorful player of the season, pitcher Mark Fydrich. Nicknamed 'The Bird', Fydrich was known for talking to the baseball, strolling around the mound, and other histrionics. The right-hander was in the midst of a season that would see him win the AL Rookie of the Year Award and finish second for the league's Cy Young Award honors.
Former Phillies pitching legend Robin Roberts served as the NL 'Honorary Captain' for the game, with former Yankees pitcher Bob Lemon receiving those honors for the American League.
This was the first MLB All-Star Game at which "The Star-Spangled Banner" and the Canadian national anthem of "Oh, Canada" were both played, and each has been played at every game since. The first pitch was thrown out by U.S. President Gerald Ford.
In the actual game, the National League bolted out to an early lead, scoring twice off Fydrich in the bottom of the 1st inning. Rose led off with a single and came around to score on a triple by Garvey, who then scored on a one-out grounder by Foster to make it a 2-0 game.
In the bottom of the 3rd inning, Morgan singled with one out and Foster then crushed a two-run homer deep to left-center field off the 'Catfish', pitcher Jim Hunter of the Yankees, to double the NL's lead to 4-0. That blast would ultimately lead to Foster being named the game's Most Valuable Player.
Meanwhile, Jones was holding down the American League's top hitters. He would toss three scoreless innings, allowing two hits and a walk, and would eventually be credited with the win.
The AL got one back in the top of the 4th when Lynn pounded a pitch from the New York Mets ace Tom Seaver out deep down the right field line to make it a 4-1 game.
In the top of the 5th, the home crowd in South Philly was pleased to find that both Bowa and Boone had been inserted into the lineup. Cash and Schmidt would enter the game the following inning. Also in the 6th, Money would enter for the American League, the man who Schmidt had replaced at the Phillies third base position a few years earlier. With Luzinski still in the starting lineup, it briefly made for a nice Philadelphia touch to the game.
In the top of the 7th, Luzinski would finally be lifted for pinch-hitter Ken Griffey Sr after the Bull had struggled through an 0-3 performance at the plate. The Phillies contingent would go a collective 1-8 by the end of the game, with only Cash producing a base hit.
That hit from the Phillies veteran leader came to lead off the bottom of the 8th inning against California Angels lefty Frank Tanana. Perez drew a walk to follow Cash, and the Phils' second sacker then moved over to third base when Bill Russell of the Dodgers hit into a double play.
With two outs and the score still at 4-1, Griffey delivered an RBI single to score Cash. Cesar Cedeno of the Houston Astros then stepped in and blasted a two-run homer deep into the left field stands off Tanana, blowing the game open to a 7-1 lead for the National League, which would hold up as the final score.
As pitcher Ken Forsch wrapped the game up in the bottom of the 9th with a 1-2-3 inning, retiring Money, Chris Chambliss, and Amos Otis in order, only Boone and Cash remained on the field for the host Phillies and the victorious National League.
The Phillies would not host another MLB All-Star Game for two decades, when the popular exhibition contest among baseball's top stars would finally return to Veteran's Stadium in South Philly for one final time. The team is hoping to have Citizens Bank Park named to host the game during the 250th anniversary celebration of our nation's birth in the summer of 2026.

On August 7th, the SC permitted the construction of a railway line in Delhi NCR's Millenium Park forest area. The transit system reduces the commute between Delhi and Panipat to 45 minutes.
Brief Facts of the Case
An advocate filed a Petition under Article 32 in the case of Dr. BL Wadehra v Union of India & Ors. This case was for managing municipal solid waste in 1944. It sought directions for MCD and NDMC for garbage collection, removal and disposal. A Bench comprising Justices Kuldip Singh and Ahmad Saghir S. dealt with the Petition. In an Order dated March 1st, 1966, SC prohibited the use of forest areas for any development work in the same case. The Directions to MCD directed them to use filled up SLFs solely for forestry. It mentioned 12 sites wherein the MCD was to undertake afforestation w.e.f. April 1st, 1996.
Plea before the Court
An application filed sought the construction of a Railway Line Viaduct. This was in a statutory forest called 'Millenium Park' extending over an area of 1 acre. ASG Atmaram Nandkarni debriefed the Bench on the development works taken up. These works are in the Delhi-Alwar and Delhi-Panipat corridor. These corridors form part of the mass rapid transit system for Delhi NCR.
Court's Decision
A 3 Judge Bench heard the matter. It comprised Chief Justice SA Bobde, Justices AS Bopanna & V. Ramasubramiun. The Bench followed up with the modification of the 1966 Order. The National Capital Region Transport Corporation will construct the corridor. The corridor reduces the transit time between Delhi and Panipat to 45 minutes. Furthermore, a highway will also run parallel to these corridors.

Set Your Default Web Browser In Windows 7 - 8 & 10 x
Set Your Default Web Browser in Windows 7 through 10
This is easy. But sometimes it is not known to all.
YOU CAN SET YOUR BROWSER AS DEFAULT BROWSER SO every time you open your favorite web browser in Windows 7, 8 or 10 your browser will be there when you need it.
Windows 10 comes with Internet Explorer browser and the newest Internet Web Browser: EDGE
Some people who upgrade to Windows 10 may prefer another browser, one that is familiar and easy to use that has been their browser of choice over the years and is dependable and good enough for them to use besides the latest Edge browser, just because of ease of use and basic familiarity. I understand this as I myself have used Netscape in early years and moved up to using Firefox, Chrome & SeaMonkey (browser suite).
When a browser you are using is not set as the default browser in Windows 10 for instance, it will prompt you to set it as the default browser. If you are prompted to allow for instance, Opera, to be your default web browser or Firefox, you can do this, but the next time you decide to open an alternative web browser in your Windows computer, that browser might also prompt you to set it as the default browser, but it will not become the default browser automatically. You can close a browser that has prompted you to set as default but you can chose to ignore the prompt and just close the browser and the next time you open your default browser, it will not prompt you to do anything except ask you if you want to close all tabs, which is usual for any browser that has open tabs in multiples.
A browser can be setup to open a new tab in the SAME WINDOW or open a new tab in a DIFFERENT or separate WINDOW.

I still stick to Firefox. Some of its releases have had bugs, but they've always been fixed. I like the layout. I've NEVER used Internet Explorer, and I've tried others, including Chrome. In fact, I tried Chrome twice! So thanks, but Firefox is the only viable choice for me. And I, too, go back to its original name: Netscape. As to choosing the default? I think if a person can't figure that out for himself, maybe he shouldn't be using a computer? It may sound hard, but there are some people who should stay away from computers...
LOL, my husband says I should stay away from computers but not because I can't use them! He's glad of my knowledge at times, though.

Teen accused of Facebook threat on police won't be charged
Published: 16:23 EDT, 9 January 2015 | Updated: 16:23 EDT, 9 January 2015
NEW YORK (AP) — A grand jury has refused to indict an 18-year-old accused of making a terrorist threat by posting a Facebook photo of a gunman shooting at a police car on the same day two officers were killed.
Authorities say Devon Coley posted symbols showing a gun pointed at an officer's head and a caption with his local precinct's number and the word "next."
On Dec. 20, two police officers were shot in their patrol car by a man who vowed online to kill "pigs." The suspect posted a series of online threats before the shooting.
The Brooklyn district attorney's office says Coley was being held without bail Friday. He still faces weapon possession and assault charges in separate cases.
The grand jury's decision was issued Thursday.
