Baseball season is upon us, and with the rise of Instagram has also come an increase in exposure to all of the delicious and weird ballpark foods that are available throughout Major League Baseball stadium. Coors Field, home of the Colorado Rockies, is no exception to this, and they’ve really stepped up their game in recent seasons to accommodate not just baseball fans, but foodies alike who are looking to enjoy their meals at the game more than ever before.

Best Food at Coors Field
You’ll find plenty of good eats at Coors Field, from the garden variety hamburgers and hot dogs, to the not-so-garden-variety dogs at Biker Jim’s Gourmet Dogs at section 107 and 331, where you’ll find interesting (if not exotic) meats like the Elk Jalapeno Cheddar dog, or the Reindeer Sausage Dog on the menu. They even have vegetarian options like their Vegan Dog, and allow for you to soup them up with Sonoran toppings like beans, jalapenos, onions, tomatoes, mustard & mayo.
There are a few notable barbecue options at Coors Field, and for those who are a fan of smoked meats can choose between The Smokehouse for BBQ (located on the main concourse around the left field corner) for a sitdown spot with a bevy of options ranging from mac ‘n cheese, brisket, burnt ends, sausage, and more, or you can grab Famous Dave’s (our personal favorite) at Section 149, where you can grab their solid spare ribs and their excellent Devil’s Spit brisket, topped with melted pepper jack cheese and jalapeno bacon, as pictured below.
Our Favorite Food at Coors Field
To start things off, we’ll highlight some of the fan favorites for Rockies fans who have the luxury of attending multiple games each season, but still hit up the same reliable spots for ballpark fare that’s become synonymous with the stadium.
While they may be basic, the chicken tenders and fries at Tenders, Love, and Chicken (pictured below) in the Wazee Market at Section 137 are done right, and for picky eaters looking for something simple and delicious, this is your best bet.
Another notable vendor located at Sextions 115, 133, 311, and 330 are Denver Cheese Steaks, who give Tony Luke’s at Philly’s Citizens Bank Park a run for their money.
A hyper-local fan favorite are the Shishito Peppers with Green Chili Queso at The Rooftop at Section 306.
The Most Unique Food at Coors Field
This one isn’t really a contest, with the Rocky Mountain Po’boy, loaded with garlic slaw, green chili ranch, pico de gallo, guacamole, and cojita cheese from Rocky Mountain Oysters in Section 137 taking the crown. Those unfamiliar with the local delicacy can see what a rocky mountain oyster really is here, and they have enough of a demand in Denver to be one of the more popular – albeit pretty weird – food choices for fans at Coors Field this season.
The Best Dessert at Coors Field
The food purveyors at Coors Field have got dessert options covered in spades, from the “Tournadough” funnel cake from the Fair Territory of the 300s level, to Cookie & Creamery in Section 119, which offers a variety of cookies (chocolate chip, white chocolate macadamia nut, oatmeal raisin) and ice cream flavors to allow fans to create their own cookiewich for a delicious and filling sweet treat. There’s a self-serve ice cream stand among various other ice cream locations to satisfy fans on a hot day, as well.
Berrie Kabobs from The Original Berrie Kabobs in Section 132 offer fresh strawberry & bananas, frozen cheesecake, or strawberries & brownie bites dipped into your choice of white or milk chocolate.
Dietary Restrictions & Vegetarian Food Options at Coors Field
If you’re looking for vegetarian options at Coors Field, there are vegetarian and vegan items available at Infield Greens Salad at Section 120, 137 at Wazee Market, and the Mountain Ranch, the Gluten Friendly Cart at Section 143, which has selections ranging from food (chicken sandwiches, veggie quesadillas) to drinks (gluten free beer and ciders), to dessert, and Salad Wraps at Section 120.
Where to Drink at Coors Field
As should be the case for any ballpark sponsored by a major beverage distributor, Coors Field has plenty of beautiful areas at which you can enjoy a drink while taking in a ballgame while being surrounded by some excellent views.
If you’re looking for craft beers, check out The SandLot Brewery, Major League Baseball’s first ballpark brewery.which is an indoor bar and sit-down restaurant located at Section 112.
For a great spot to hangout and enjoy great views from the stadium’s new rooftop, head to the Captain Morgan Captain’s Deck or Coors Light Silver Bullet Bar for a full bar that includes liquor offerings.
If you’re a fan of IPAs, Hop Valley near near the left field foul pole on the first level has some of the best beers that you can get from a standalone vendor at Coors.
Can I Bring Food or Drinks into Coors Field?
Per Coors Field policy, fans are allowed to bring food into the stadium for “individual consumption” and may bring clear, sealed plastic bottles of water 1 liter or smaller, in addition to sealed small, single-serve soft-sided beverage containers such as milk cartons or juice boxes. No cans, glass or aluminum bottles, or thermoses are permitted in the stadium, but soft-sided bags or containers of 16″ x 16″ x 8″ or smaller are allowed.

The Strib’s Jon Tevlin, the Sen. Chuck Grassley of local journalism, tracks an IRS audit of the “prosperity gospel” advocate the Rev. Mac Hammond. Hammond dared the IRS to audit his Brooklyn Park organization for tax-exempt violations — but when they did, he refused to comply with their request. The church claims the IRS is politically motivated; Hammond is the guy who gave the passive-aggressive pulpit endorsement of Congresswoman Michele Bachmann in 2006. (Grassley leads the congressional investigation into religious financial abuses.)
More Hammond: Newly released court docs say the IRS is checking Hammond’s compensation, an airplane sale-leaseback and forgiven loans. A church spokesman claims Hammond has been “completely cleared” on the politics count. (Tax-exempt orgs aren’t supposed to make political endorsements.) Tevlin says the church has repeatedly denied an investigation exists, but the court filing indicates one has been under way since spring 2007. Minnesota Independent’s Andy Birkey notes Hammond gave Bachmann $2,100 — legally — this year.
More good news for Al Franken: An MPR/Humphrey Institute poll gives him a 1 percentage point lead on Norm Coleman, 41-40, MPR’s Mark Zdechlik says. Dean Barkley gets 8 percent, and 11 percent are undecided. U prof Larry Jacobs, who like many analysts has slagged Franken’s campaign, admits he was surprised by the satirist’s strong showing. Despite the good number, Jacobs says Franken is hurt by Barkley’s presence. Coleman’s approval rating is 46 percent; 42 percent disapprove. Deeper results here.
More poll: The same survey gave Barack Obama a 10-point lead yesterday. Fifty percent of the respondents identified as Democrats, which seems high and might explain the good Donkey Party results. The sampling error margin is plus/minus 3.6 percentage points. Note: The poll could already be out of date, since sampling started Aug. 7, over two weeks ago.
More Senate race: Coleman got a counterintuitive Carpenters Union endorsement; Franken unveiled a talking fish ad that blasts Coleman catching and not releasing dirty oil money tied to indicted Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens. The PiPress’ Rachel Stassen-Berger says Coleman returned money from Stevens, but not that of the oil execs. The latter money was given in the 2002 election cycle.
Minnesota Independent’s Paul Demko hangs with a racist and higher-information Pine County undecideds as he looks at whether the battleground spot will vote for Barack Obama.
[Noon update: Forgot to include an interesting piece from Fox9’s Tom Lyden on the parking garage that will hold folks arrested for misdemeanors during the Republican National Convention. There’s a Political Agenda item here.]
A Roseville mom who blogged about her two adoptive daughters admitted stabbing them, the PiPress’ Elizabeth Mohr and Jake Grovum report. Financial problems are blamed; 60-year-old Sylvia Sieferman was laid off in 2004 and had trouble selling her home, the Strib’s Terry Collins writes. One daughter is critical, the other stable; both girls are 11. They were Chinese adoptees, and the mom’s blog explains her joy in parenting. Sieferman also stabbed herself.
State HMOs served fewer people but made more money, the PiPress’ Julie Forster reports. Premiums rose 9 percent, faster than medical costs, and investment income also helped HMO bottom lines. Unsurprisingly, they lost another 27,000 customers, and now serve 409,000 Minnesotans, about half the number of a decade ago. Their profit margin equals 2.3 percent on $5.3 billion in premium revenue.
Ex-Sen. Rod Grams unveiled a group opposing a constitutional sales-tax dedication for habitat and the arts, MPR’s Tim Pugmire notes. Grams opposes a sales-tax hike; others oppose any constitutional dedication. Supporters say the state hasn’t ponied up on its own, so voters should go over their heads.
According to a new Pew survey, interest in the GOP convention is fractionally higher than four years ago, the excellent polling website FiveThirtyEight.com reports. Democratic convention interest is much higher, however. If only those guys had made up their minds to come here two weeks earlier.
Minnesota Spokesman-Recorder’s Charles Hallman says black businesses have been all but shut out of convention business and promotion. The Host Committee’s executive board is all white, the story claims.
St. Paul will cut its 4 a.m. bar fee to $500, the PiPress’ Jason Hoppin notes. The City Council pegged the Republican National Convention fee at $2,500, but few bit. Because we’re so close to the Sept. 1-4 event, interested bar owners will pay the $2,500 up front and get a $2,000 rebate later. A council majority is on board.
Washington County could withdraw from a multi-county transit agreement just months after signing on unless it gets more dough from the quarter-cent sales tax, the Strib’s Kevin Giles writes. The transit board is only giving Washingtonians $1 million in projects on a $4 million investment. MPR’s Bob Collins presaged the beef a couple of days ago.
Another entertaining dispatch from PiPresser David Hanners on the corruption trial of two Ramsey County deputies, this time with video-surveillance transcripts. The men seemed to know they were being set up … again. Yet they still withheld $6,000 in FBI-planted cash. They still claim it was a practical joke.
More alleged drunks are being arrested on Hennepin County waters, the Strib’s Mary Lynn Smith notes. It’s still just a handful of people: 63 DWB’s this year, up from 41 last year. Statewide numbers are flat. Lake Minnetonka, unsurprisingly, is the epicenter. One deputy says high gas prices haven’t affected boat traffic, but more people are holding “anchor parties.”
United Way will seek $91.6 million in donations this fall, a $3.2 million increase aimed at “housing, hunger, families and children,” the Strib’s Warren Wolfe writes.
The Strib’s Mike Kaszuba looks ahead to the Sept. 9 legislative primaries. Republican Jim Abeler, one of the “Override Six,” almost came to blows with a conservative GOP challenger, the rival alleges. Minneapolis DFLer Joe Mullery faces a tough challenge from Park Board member Jon Olson; “institution” Phyllis Kahn faces an opponent backed by DeLaSalle fans who loathe Kahn’s opposition to the school’s football field. Majority Leader Tony Sertich also has an intraparty opponent.
Fairview Health Services and Blue Cross re-upped their deal one day before a clinical agreement expired, the Strib’s Chen May Yee writes. It could’ve affected 50,000 people, notes the PiPress’ Jeremy Olson.
A Strib editorial promotes proposed state House of Representatives rules for saner lawmaking. The suggestion would allow more time for committees to vet legislation at session’s end, and less finagling on the House floor. Also lawmakers could sponsor no more than 25 bills.
A developer wants to build a $200 million motorsports track near Big Lake without public subsidy, the Strib’s Paul Walsh reports. Then again, the developer filed bankruptcy last fall. There’s no formal proposal for the 90,000-fan track; the developer won’t reveal partners but says he controls the land. A 5/8-mile oval could handle NASCAR and open-wheel Indy-type racing. If all zooms ahead, the facility could open in 2011. A potential rival, Elko Speedway owner Tom Ryan, says the plan isn’t viable.
Here’s a Friday heart-warmer about Minneapolis library security guards who pitched in to buy a kid a new bike after it was stolen, from WCCO’s Darcy Pohland.
And another: an engagingly written Hastings Star Gazette piece about a local boxing gym that’s produced two world champions. Joe Schirmer says the claim might not completely hold up, but still crafts a fun read.
Nort spews: Yo! The Twins win the first game of the dreaded road trip against the dreaded Angels! Scott Baker, the bullpen, and little Nick Punto’s 12th-inning triple add up to a 2-1 win. Sore Loser, with Torii Hunter’s acknowledgment of Minnesota’s awesomeness, here. The Twins are a half-game back of Chicago and tied with Boston for the wild-card lead.

It is recommended to check if chloroquine is still effective in the region prior to using it. Can i take prednisone and hydroxychloroquine together Plaquenil 200 mg twice a day Plaquenil arthritis side effects Chloroquine is a 4-aminoquinoline with antimalarial, anti-inflammatory, and potential chemosensitization and radiosensitization activities. Although the mechanism is not well understood, chloroquine is shown to inhibit the parasitic enzyme heme polymerase that converts the toxic heme into non-toxic hemazoin, thereby resulting in the accumulation of toxic heme within the parasite. Proper Use. Drug information provided by IBM Micromedex Take this medicine exactly as directed by your doctor. Do not take more of it, do not take it more often, and do not take it for a longer time than your doctor ordered. Mechanism of Action Inside red blood cells, the malarial parasite, which is then in its asexual lifecycle stage, must degrade hemoglobin to acquire essential amino acids, which the parasite requires to construct its own protein and for energy metabolism. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend against treatment of malaria with chloroquine alone due to more effective combinations.

I understand that the public outcry has caused the University of Delaware to shut down their “diversity program”.
Good. Students are to learn to question, not be indoctrinated.
1. When were you first made aware of your race?
2. When did you discover your sexual identity?
3. Who taught you a lesson in regard to some sort of diversity awareness? What was that lesson?
4. When was a time when you confronted someone regarding an issue of diversity? What was the confrontation about? If haven’t, why not?
5. When was a time you felt oppressed? Who was oppressing you? How did you feel?
6. Can you think of a time when someone was offended by what you said? How did that make you feel? How do you think it made them feel? How did his/her behavior change toward you?
Hmmm…The slant is a bit different (racism instead of sexual repression) but the technique sounds just like the “Encounter programs” that I was forced to attend as a medical student in the 1960′s.
These were small meetings of students who were essentially ordered to bare their souls in front of the other students so that they could learn to be authentic. If it sounds familiar, it is similar to what is practiced in some “group therapy” sessions.
The aim was to “loosen” us up, so that we would accept the agenda, which back then essentially was that if everyone dropped religious rules and just had sex with anything that moved, there would be no more mental disease. I’m old enough to remember when some psychiatrists felt all schizophrenia was due to “homosexual repression” and autism was due to “frigid mothers”, and if you were crazy, it was your mother’s fault, because people made people crazy.
Of course, none of these ideas turned out to be true, but never mind. Most of these meetings were an excuse for the superior clique of students to ridicule the rest of us.
Usually I arranged for a friendly nurse to “beep me out” with a fake emergency during each meeting, and when questioned, I simply lied through my teeth.
My problem was not that I was a woman (our class had only 5% female students back then) but that I was from an inner city family, on a scholarship, and still went to church, and what was worse, could logically explain why I decided to go to church and why I believed what I believed. How gauche.
The dirty little secret about the 1960′s “rebellion” for “freedom” is that most of the rebels merely conformed to the countercultural thinking. Few actually thought for themselves, and would blithely insist Cuba was a paradise or Mao’s Great Leap forward had produced huge harvests or that drug use was not only harmless but good.
I could fend off psychological attacks and attempts to be manipulated, having a lot of experience with such things from high school (being a math and science oriented woman in the days of pre women’s lib taught one to ignore criticism).
Then one day the group circled and emotionally devastated my roommate. I was merely observing the meeting, and was aghast as the professor sat and left the psychological torture go on. Finally I intervened, corrected a few of their “facts” and told them off as immature and ignorant.
Aside from the disturbing fact that political correctness is in favor of indoctrinating students who are supposed to be learning to think by the method of Socrates, to question everything to search for truth, the dirty little fact is that it doesn’t work unless you censor all forms of informational input.
Changing behavior via counselling is an “iffy” thing, and group therapy seems more a way to teach people to give the correct answers that allow the group to approve of you than to learn how one personally feels.
The whole point of pscyhological therapy is that you need to establish trust. Doctors know that often the real problem worrying our patient is not stated until the presenting problem and examination is cared for. On the way out, the patient turns and says….and one more thing, doctor…
Sometimes the problem won’t appear until several visits assure the patient that the doctor will understand.
Without trust, you can’t start working through problems, and coercing people by insisting they bare their deepest sins is wrong…which is why few Catholics attend confession anymore, despite the fact it is a valuable way to confront one’s sins, because in the old days before Vatican II the sacrament had degenerated into laundry lists and guilt trips. Hopefully, in another 20 years or so it will return to being what it was meant to be: a way for sinners (i.e. everyone) to admit to mistakes and start their life over with a clean slate,Â with the idea that they will do better in the future.
Just like the laundry list of sins has disappeared as a way to make people better, so too a list of “sins” of racism isn’t going to do much.
Brainwashing can still occur, but American youth who are surrounded by the anarchy taught by MTV are less likely to be brainwashing material than my classmates who grew up in the conservative 1950′s… or the uniformly “hip” 1960′s….and indeed, it seems that a lot of them just refused to cooperate:
An RA who is Latina, Lorraine Makond, agreed that the program was a flop because students didn’t really want to be there.
“For the most part students put up a wall,” said the 19-year-old junior, who is president of the Latino student union. “When people hear diversity training, they put their politically correct sensors on for three hours, then go back to their regular behavior.”
Good for them.
I guess I was merely 50 years behind the times in my rebellion.

This is a blog site for people who value liberty and love their country. This is a blog site for people who support the Tea Party movement as a peaceful way to embrace the values and principles on which our great nation was founded and demand that our government return to that perfect formula so that our individual rights and freedoms can be as best protected as our Founders and our early freedom fighters envisioned and for which they devoted their lives, their interests, and their sacred honor.
This is also a blog for patriots who want to know their Constitution and understand how it protects individual liberty. Together with the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution constitutes the charter of our freedom. In 1787, our Founders took the concept of “Natural Law” and made it central to the existence of our very nation. Our rights stem from our Creator, and as such, no government can take them away. And to make sure that would not happen, as it did in the various tryannical governments of Europe and elsewhere, our Framers devised a government, of which the Constitution sets out the blueprint, which was specifically and intentionally designed to protect those God-given and inalienable rights. The Constitution was written for those in whose name it was cast: We the People. It is a charter outlining exactly what functions and powers the federal government is to have and what we can expect from that government. It establishes sovereignty in all of us, We the People, as a collective body of citizens. Power derives from us and not the other way around.
The Constitution is a short document – and remarkably straightforward. Our Founders never intended that we would need judges and justices to interpret it for us. It wasn’t required that we have law degrees to understand it. The Constitution was never supposed to come under the exclusive dominion of the Supreme Court who would ignore its simple common sense meaning and would fail to see the forest from the trees.
It is our duty to know and protect the Constitution. Liberty has been defended and fought for throughout the ages, often at great peril and enormous consequences. It would be a travesty that in our most civilized age that we fail to read and appreciate the power and brilliance of our Constitution and allow our liberties to be robbed from us simply because we’ve taken it all for granted for too long.

For a while I have been meaning to write about the reason I keep this blog. But right now I feel like noting down a thought that occurred to me as I debated whether to watch a movie tonight or read a book instead, namely: “What is the point of life.” I don’t mean that to be read in a suicidal tone at all. I am really enjoying life today. It is more something melancholic along the lines of the observation that Alain de Botton made in his writing on Work.
At some point he is in the jungle watching preparations for the Ariane rocket to take off. On its tip is a satellite being put into orbit by a Japanese broadcaster. It will be used to propagate television signals carrying primarily manga content.
He is struck by the majesty and complexity, the sheer brilliance of man being able to send a little box of metal and semiconductor into a precise orbit around the earth. The mastery of so many types of science and engineering. I was struck by that too. But his sense of marvel gives way to a pang of loss at the idea that all of this brilliance was being put to the service of letting more people watch cartoons.
And that is what I mean. And I think he captures the point brilliantly when he analyses work, how meaningless most work is in its aims. If you think about it, most of us live, die, reproduce and stir up all kinds of drama and that’s about it. For millennia we did not deplete the earth doing this, but now we do. We are like a plankton bloom that has gotten out of control fed by the discovery of oil, coal and how to inject them into the process for making food and extending life spans.
But we are about as useless or useful as plankton. In the end look around, most of us (and I include myself, sad as it makes me) are basically just wasting time here, doing nothing useful. Some of us are kinder, some of us are meaner, some of us are full of love, others hate. Some people live lives of such total desperation that I can’t conceive of wanting their life, and yet they will fight and cling to it just like I would to mine.
It is deeply important to me at this juncture in my life to realise that nothing any of us does really matters much. I hasten to add that I am not promoting nihilism, I am trying to free myself and others from the ridiculous stresses that we willingly endure or even adopt out of mimetic instinct or some such biological invention. I often find myself prey to these stresses, the idea that I am wasting my life. But sometimes I am just happy with the freedom I have and am able in those moments to be truly self sufficient. It’s not quite bliss but it is nice.

Wow. What can I say? Few games have occupied my time as much as Transport Tycoon Deluxe has. Created by the legendary Chris Sawyer, who went on to create the RollerCoaster Tycoon series and Locomotion, Transport Tycoon Deluxe captures perfectly what makes the strategy-simulation genre magical.
In Transport Tycoon Deluxe you take the place of an entrepreneur in the transportation industry. You begin with few resources and can decide to get into planes, trains, buses, or boats. Using these vehicles, you carry things like people, raw materials, and goods across the land, sea, and air. (Hint: start with trains, it’s the best way to get started IMO).
The graphics for their time were very good and still hold up fairly well today. The game has recently been revamped and re-released on mobile. The mobile version features a completely new graphics engine and has been built with a touch interface in mind.
Transport Tycoon Deluxe has a memorable soundtrack created by John Broomhall. I still find myself humming the tunes, nearly 25 years later.
A few brave, dedicated TTD fans have recreated the game as an open-source project known as Open TTD. It’s free to play and someone has even created a browser version that you can play free any time you want on pretty much any platform (Mac, Linux, PC, etc.) without having to download or install anything.
Transport Tycoon Deluxe is amazing and you should play it.

Few performers have ever had as storied and illustrious career as the incomparable Bette Midler, even less have risen to become a gay icon. That may be partly due to the fact she has never forgotten where her career began, on Broadway and performing at the gay Continental Baths in New York. With Barry Manilow as her accompanist, she literally made a name for herself as “Bathhouse Betty” performing on weekends to a loyal following in the early 70s.
Rare archival footage from the Continental Baths of Bathhouse Betty performing “Friends”
Her 1972 debut album, The Divine Miss M went platinum; she received a Grammy for Best New Artist in 1973; and “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy” went to No 1.
The Divine Miss M proved she was not only a brilliant singer, but a hilarious comedian creating unforgettable characters like Delores Delago and her “bawdy” homage to her idol Miss Sophie Tucker with backup girls, “The Harlettes.”
In 1979, she had first starring role in the film, The Rose for which she received her first of two Academy Award nominations for the nearly three dozen films of her career.
In 2008, she began her new Las Vegas show, Bette Midler: The Showgirl Must Go On with a two year residence bring back her “Harlettes,” adding 20 “Caesar Salad Girls” and a full orchestra.
But once a showgirl always a showgirl; and now Bette Midler is “back where she belongs” on Broadway and ready to open in the iconic title role of Hello Dolly! on April 2oth.

Home Office launches active citizenship website
The Home Office today launched a website to help get more people involved in shaping their communities.The new 'Active Citizenship Centre' was launched in Birmingham by Home Office Minister Fiona Mactaggart.
Speaking at a conference organised by the Birmingham Voluntary Services Council, she outlined her vision of the site as a centre for information and a forum for debate on civil renewal:
"The Active Citizenship Centre website will give local groups, especially in the voluntary sector, the information they need to get involved in tackling problems in their own area", she said.
"Strong communities, in which citizens, the voluntary sector and public bodies work together, build security for all and reduce crime.
"That powerful sense of cohesion, equality and mutual respect is at the heart of the Home Office’s Strategic Plan which the Home Secretary has launched today."

Little Genesis, is an ancient Judeo-Christian religious text preserved in the Ethiopic or Ge’ez language only. It was well known to the Early Black Jews, Christians and writers in the East and... More > the West, as well as by the Ethiopian-Hebrews. Later it was so thoroughly suppressed by the Gentile Christian church and thus no complete Hebrew, Greek or Latin version survived in the West. It is considered canonical for the Ethiopian Orthodox (Tewahedo) Church, where it is known as Kufalê, or the Book of Divisions – referring to the time-cycles from the “Beginning.” In the modern Gentile scholarly view, it is said to rework material found in the biblical books of Genesis and Exodus in the light of concerns of some 2nd century BC Jews.

This Christmas bauble was started back in November in my local sewing group, the Georges Hall Sew'n'Sews. We had decided to cancel our December meeting due to the proximity of Christmas, and instead made our Christmas decorations in November.
This decoration is based on a polystyrene ball, available from places like Spotlight and Lincraft. It is divided into sections, cut with a stanley knife, then fabric is pushed into the cuts. I have made plenty of these over the years, so this year I took the basic idea to another level.
I first had to divide my polystyrene ball to obtain a pattern. From there I scanned my pattern into my digitising program to get the correct size to digitise my words. Once done, I could then play with the shapes of the letters to get them into the shape to fit the bauble.
My first attempt at stitching them out showed that I needed more of a border around the letters to accentuate them more, so back to the file I went to fix it up. Once fixed, I was happy with the stitch outs.
My ball is divided into six, three sections are my digitised words, and the alternate three sections are the same green fabric that has been over-layed with a red glittery mesh fabric. The ball has been finished of with red ribbon.
It's probably my favourite bauble on my tree this year, thought I do have other decorations that are not baubles that I like much better. Most of my tree decorations are hand made, this just adds another one to the mix.
Sunday, December 25, 2016
These little Christmas hearts have been made with love and given to close friends and special family members. I started them back in August, using a free pattern I found here.
I used scraps of even weave fabric that I had in my stash, as well a scraps of thread. They are backed in red felt to bring out the colour, and I even had that in my stash. The only thing I purchased was the ribbon to hang them.
They are made using the Hardanger technique, combined with some surface stitching which has been counted.
They should all be with their prospective new owners by now, and I know they will be treasured by one and all.
Saturday, December 10, 2016
After the last two pages (where I washed them with a tea/coffee colour wash) bucked under the wetness and crinkled my pages, I purchased something called "Mod Podge" which was supposed to be a water based sealer/glue/finish.
So page number five has been firstly sealed with Mod Podge, then wet sponged with an aqua colour paint. After letting it dry, I worked with my trusty ball point pen and drew my number five. Mmmmm........ I could hardly see the line on the coloured background, so I went over it with a wedge tipped black marker.
From there I continued with the wedge tipped marker, and added in some basic shapes that continued on from the number five.
By this stage I felt that the page was getting very heavy and needed some lightness, so changed to a fine felt tipped pen to add in further patterning.
I quite like the page, it is a bit different for me using a wedge tipped marker on such a small scale. I usually like fine work in anything. Wedge tipped markers in this house are reserved for marking food items in the freezer . This time though I think it has added some dimension with the use of two different tipped markers as well as paint, and the page has certainly given me some inspiration for stitching.

If you’re crazy about Christmas, and count St. Nick as one of your heroes, then it’s time for you to visit Santa Claus, Indiana. This town, which was established in 1856, has the world’s only post office to bear the name of Santa Claus. Chances are, the letters you sent to Santa has been routed to their post office. Because of this, a group of volunteers known as “Santa’s Elves” ensures each child receives a reply from Santa Claus, a tradition that has been around since 1914. The Post Office also prints the only official Santa Claus postmark, a Santa Claus picture postmark that’s available only during the Christmas season.
Of course, the whole town has capitalized on the whole Christmas theme. There’s Christmas Lake Village, where the street names are all themed after the season as well. The area’s 3 lakes are called Christmas Lake, Lake Holly, and Lake Noel. There’s also Holiday Village and Santa’s Lodge, a Christmas-themed hotel.
There are a lot of attractions to be found in the area as well, majority of which are also themed towards Christmas. There’s the Santa Claus Museum, Frosty’s Fun Center, Mushie’s Car Museum, Christmas Lake Golf Course, Lake Rudolph Campground and RV Resort and Santa’s Candy Castle. You can also find the Lincoln Boyhood Home & National Memorial and the Lincoln State Park here.
The biggest draw in this area is the Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari. This park, which was originally built by the late industrialist Louis J. Koch in 1946, holds the distinction of being the world’s first theme park. It offers three wooden roller coasters, water rides, even free sodas and sunscreen!
Visiting during the month of December has added perks, of course. You’ll get to join in an old-fashioned Christmas celebration. And there’s the town’s annual 14-mile Festival of Lights which takes place around the first or second week of December.

Preview: Matthias Lehmann’s Celebrated Historical LGBTQ+ German Graphic Novel – ‘Parallel’
by Richard Bruton
Matthias Lehmann‘s Parallel tells a harrowing tale of LGBTQ+ prejudice and discrimination in post-war Germany.
Coming out in June, Oni Press are releasing Matthias Lehmann’s Parallel, the 2018 finalist for the Berthold Leibinger Foundation comic book prize.
This first English translation is a beautiful and powerful work in which the author explores his own complicated family history—a relative who lived with the complexities of being gay at a time when queer relationships were forbidden. So with this as a background, Lehmann’s Parallel examines one man’s experiences in post-war Germany, torn between twin desires, wanting to conform and have a nice, normal family, and the simultaneous pull of his nature as a gay man.
Here’s Oni Press’ PR bumf for this one…
“Taking place between the end of World War II and the 1980s, Parallel chronicles Karl Kling’s efforts to comply with social norms in order to keep his sexuality a secret. It also paints a picture of a life torn between conformity and rebellion, and the cruel realities of twentieth-century German society, where homosexuality was proscribed and punishable until 1994. Matthias Lehmann poignantly depicts the story of a decades-long yearning to live an open and free life, and the price Karl and those he loves paid for it. It is also a story of finding the courage to finally tell the truth no matter the obstacles . . . or the cost.”
Switching between past and present with ease, Parallel is framed through Karl’s letter to his daughter, Hella, a daughter who disowned her father many years past.
In the letter, through flashbacks and memories evocatively rendered in tones and grey wash and a gorgeous line, we find out of Karl’s past, his failed marriages, his fractured family relationships, and the difficulties of life denying his desires as a closeted gay man in a country where his very existence was punishable until the 1990s.
Writer/Artist/Cover by Matthias Lehmann
Published by Oni Press on June 14th
Now, a quick preview of Parallel, showing some of the multiple lives led by Karl Kling in this emotional and affecting graphic novel…


The advantages of ADHESO gripper technology are revolutionary:
SCHUNK's application experts take advantage of these benefits and develop customer-specific adhesive grippers with ADHESO gripper technology. Due to the high variability of the adhesive structures, grippers with ADHESO technology can be directly tailored to the requirements of your application.
The ADHESO gripper technology is based on an adhesive system modeled on nature. The adhesive forces used by animals such as geckos for locomotion are now being utilized by SCHUNK for use in handling applications in the most diverse of fields.
SCHUNK grippers with ADHESO gripper technology have a distinctive surface architecture made of special polymers. The result is a structure of extremely finely structured legs, which adheres residue-free to the different materials and objects. The scalability options and use of different material characteristics allows the adhesive structure to be adapted to different workpieces and surfaces. This makes grippers with ADHESO technology easy to customize for the most diverse workpieces and applications.
To pick up the workpiece, gentle pressure is placed on the structure, which increases the contact surface area and applies the effects of the Van der Waals forces. To release the gripper, it can be separated from the workpiece by means of four release mechanisms:
Alternatively, it is also possible to equip the gripper with an active wiper, which prevents mechanical stress on the workpiece at the placing position.
The gripper solutions that are possible with ADHESO are as diverse as the applications themselves. By varying the material, topography and miniaturization, the gripper can be individually tailored to the different requirements of your application.
SCHUNK offers four standardized ADHESO gripper pad sizes with matching ISO flange adapter, which can already be used to implement a large number of gripper applications quickly and cost-effectively. On request, SCHUNK can also supply a customized ADHESO gripping solution directly tailored to your application.
Containers, syringes and other medical objects made of plastic and glass often have very smooth surfaces and are therefore ideally suited for gripping with SCHUNK ADHESO. The particle-free and energy-efficient gripping process allows the ADHESO grippers to be used without any issue even in hygienically sensitive environments. This technology makes it possible to grip in a process reliable way without the need for additional energy and without leaving any residue.
Whether for the assembly of printed circuit boards or for gripping complete wafers or circuit boards: SCHUNK ADHESO grippers are ideal for a variety of applications in the electronics industry. Due to the unique ADHESO gripping technology, there are no mechanical pulses acting during the gripping process. That is why SCHUNK ADHESO offers the optimal solution, without causing any residue or particle emission.

North Carolina Is Now Offering an Online Gym Class
North Carolina has a virtual public education system, where kids who want to get ahead or need an alternative schedule can take classes online. That sounds great and well intentioned, but this is a weird twist.
They just announced that this fall, they'll be rolling out an online gym class. Yes, kids will be able to take Phys Ed from behind their computers, for actual high school credit.
Uh, how does that work? The description says, "Teachers will provide video demonstration of a physical activity or sport, then students will practice those skills and build their own video portfolios to document their progress and display mastery."
In other words, teachers will show videos of different activities and the kids have to upload their own videos doing them.
Kids in Macon County and New Hanover County, North Carolina will get to try the classes this fall. If they're successful, kids around the state could get them by the spring.

A badger-baiting gamekeeper filmed sick videos to make cash from TikTok, the Record can reveal. Ryan Martin told investigators that his motivation for the harrowing footage of hunting dogs ripping wild animals apart was cash.
He intended to produce more content featuring animal torture for the social media platform, in the hope of attracting a huge following among sickos who enjoy sadistic animal cruelty. The evil 23-year-old escaped with a fine, community service and a five-year ban on keeping animals after admitting his crimes.
One source said: “Ryan Martin was posting videos on TikTok and encouraging people to watch them. He was brazenly stating on captions that the level of barbarity on them was so extreme that they were illegal.
“But rather than feel shame at his actions, he told investigators that he could make an income from TikTok if he grew the audience. He stated this as mitigation for his crime – but any normal person would surely believe that making money from such a sick pursuit would make things worse.”
Martin, of Marykirk, Aberdeenshire, now faces losing income made from the breeding and training of gun dogs, which he did from his cottage. He also faces any application for a shotgun licence being refused, which will mean he will be unable to work as a gamekeeper.

In court last week it was revealed that Martin encouraged horrific fights between his own dogs against badgers and foxes – which had no chance of survival. In one video posted on TikTok and Snapchat, Martin could be heard egging on the dogs with calls designed to send them into a frenzy.
In another clip he warned followers the footage “isn’t 100 per cent legal”. Clair Stewart, prosecuting, told Aberdeen Sheriff Court the Scottish SPCA Special Investigations Unit (SIU) and police turned up at Martin’s home after discovering his videos were being made public.
They seized his phone and impounded three dogs whose faces had been mutilated in fights. The SIU investigators believed a sadistic blood-lust had fuelled Martin’s sick pastime.
His own pets – brindle lurcher Boss, lurcher Storm and brindle deerhound/greyhound Beau – had all suffered painful facial injuries. A vet confirmed the injuries were consistent with animal fighting.
Items seized from Martin’s address also tested positive for badger, fox and deer DNA, confirming his involvement in animal fighting. At the start of one video nasty, posted on TikTok, he states: “Hold on to your f****** hats. What you’re about to see isn’t 100 per cent legal”.
Another video included Martin’s voice shouting: “Chi chi chi chi chi, go on, dogs, get on, go on, get in.” Ms Stewart told the court: “The video then shows Storm with the top of a badger’s head in her mouth whilst Beau and Boss are biting and attacking the badger all over its body and legs.”
Another video, posted on TikTok, shows Storm standing in a field with blood on her coat around her chest, face and head. A series of photographs showed various dogs standing in a field and a video of Storm beside a dead fox.

Martin pled guilty to causing dogs to fight with badgers and foxes on various occasions. Defence agent Gregor Kelly said his client was “immature”, and that Martin saw foxes and badgers as vermin.
“He accepts these are views not acceptable in modern Scotland”, he added. He told the court that Martin planned to work as a joiner to support his partner and children in the future.
Sheriff Ian Wallace told Martin: “I don’t accept the explanation you gave to the social worker. It’s clear from the narrative you were causing, intentionally, these animals to fight and that caused injuries and/or death to not just the foxes and badgers but to your own dogs.”
He ordered Martin to carry out 175 hours of unpaid work along with the ban on keeping or working with dogs. An SSPCA investigator said: “The level of cruelty Martin inflicted on both wild animals and his own dogs undoubtedly caused severe physical and psychological pain and suffering.
“No animal deserves to be injured or killed in the name of sport, or left to die a slow painful death. Without a custodial sentence, our fear is that Martin, and others who are involved in animal fighting, won’t stop offending.”

Top 10 Safari Sundowners
The sundowner experience — watching the sun dip below the horizon with a cocktail in hand — is a classic safari tradition. It originated during Africa’s colonial period, when the British turned to liquors like gin and whiskey not only to wind down the day, but also in the hope of warding off regional and general health hazards like mosquito-borne malaria or scurvy.
Much has changed since then, but today, the ritual endures, and it’s little wonder why. Many first-time travelers experience Africa while on safari, and a day filled with not one but two game drives or bush walks to spot the Big Five (lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, and rhino) can be surprisingly exhausting.
When you finally get back to camp, red African dust coats everything down to the lenses of your binoculars, only a few lukewarm droplets are left rolling around in your water bottle, and your feet throb in your now too-tight hiking boots. Most importantly, the adrenaline that’s been pumping through your body finally quiets down now that that lion is no longer standing a few feet away.
It’s a relief to slip off your backpack (which you could swear feels heavier than it did when you set out that morning), clasp your warm fingers around an ice-cold cocktail, and settle into a leather-and-wood chair to watch the spectacular African sun shimmy its way below the horizon. Your flirtation with the dangers and delights of the natural world will commence tomorrow, but for now, your thoughts can wander, blissfully and aimlessly, with a safari sundowner.
To come up with a list of the best thirst-slaking tipples, The Daily Meal spoke with the folks at Micato Safaris, a family-run tour operator; Singita Game Reserves, a collection of nine über-luxe lodges in South Africa, Tanzania, and Zimbabwe; and travel experts to discover the top 10 safari sundowners. Some of these concoctions have been savored since the days of Out of Africa while others are newly invented, but all are refreshing after a day on safari.

DOES IT WORK ?
(Macro image from Ricoh CX1)
Prompted to post this, following several recent e-mails from readers of my (various!) blogs …. hope this answers some questions for you :
The LX3 is acknowledged as one of the very best compacts out there, and enjoys a huge fan base, which has perhaps grown further lately as some potential buyers – swayed by the announcement of the Olympus E-P1, Panasonic GF-1, Ricoh GRDIII (and CX2), and Leica X-1 – have more recently decided that this fixed-lens model, producing consistently great-quality images, has to be considered a relative bargain at around £350 …and have bought-up all available free stock. Pretty well globally.
But whilst the LX3 undoubtedly has a huge, die-hard fanbase, there have been a couple of other contenders for buyers’ cash …notably the Ricoh CX1 and Fujifilm’s F200EXR. Both have proven extremely popular.
For those interested in all of the (potentially boring) technical differences between these three ‘pocket rockets’ – you’ll need to look elsewhere. Life’s too short. But if it’s real-world usability and satisfaction rating you’re more interested in, you’re at the right place. No waffle, here’s how it goes :
1/ LX3 : Excellent in very many respects:
- Stunning lens (of course), starting at 24mm f2 …but ends at 60mm (equiv).
- White balance dramatically better than it once was – I feel there’s still a little room for improvement. Reds are still oversaturated, even when cooled-off. If you like Canon colour, you’ll like LX3.
- BW – in ‘Dynamic’ form …very film-like, fantastic high-contrast, highly-detailed results.
- Multi-film mode – three separate, consecutive images
- Multi-Aspect mode : very useful. 4:3, 3:2 and 16:9 options
- Superb Mega O.I.S
- Slightly ‘hollow’ feel to chassis
- RAW files – very detailed, but need to use (time-consuming) SilkyPix software to extract quality
- Separate lens-cap
- Almost pocketable (!)
- User interface – a bit fiddly, but ok
2/ Ricoh CX1 : vastly underrated
- Some say it’s a far cry from ‘GRD output’ – I disagree (unless you want to pixel-peep… but why would you?)
- White balance – superb. Multi-awb is a useful extra. Great colour rendition, and fantastic ‘Outdoor’ setting
- Electronic level …excellent, should be standard on all cameras
- Very flexible 7x zoom focal range – 28-200mm(equiv), capturing images that the LX3 is simply incapable of
- Image stabilisation very effective – and this camera is capable of surprisingly good low-light images
- Rapid response …focus, image display, scrolling, changing options ….CMOS etc means very fast all ’round
- Reliable exposures, and wide dynamic range (without the inhibiting DR Double-Shot mode)
- As advertised, not prone to sky ‘whiteout’ …more useful and more impressive than I expected
- Multi-film (Colour, BW, sepia) works brilliantly – exactly same image processed three ways
- Multi-Aspect – but only one at a time : 4:3, 3:2, 1:1 (needs addition of 16:9!)
- Stunning 920k screen – looks like the image you download and view on pc screen
- Amazing 1cm macro capability
- User interface – as good as it gets – intuitive, fast, logical, reliable
- Great build quality exceeds all other compacts I’ve ever used
- Very recently superceded by the new CX2, with even greater 28-300mm(equiv) focal range
3/ Fujifilm F200EXR : useful award-winner
- EXR sensor promises much, delivers some (sometimes)
- Sensor option (three in total) has to be manually selected for best results
- Some strange metering/exposure reactions, so inconsistent results …even in fairly ‘normal’ shooting conditions
- Irritating real-world aspect : the high-contrast (but fairly lo-res) screen makes you wonder what you’ve captured … or not
- Images often – but not always – look far better on computer display, once downloaded (thank heavens !)
- Multi-Aspect modes : can select one at a time from 4:3, 3:2 and 16:9
- 5x zoom range : 28-140mm (equiv) …again, captures some images that LX3 just can’t
- Image stabilisation ok, but definitely not as effective as CX1’s
- Some blackout after image capture, as if processor working really hard
- Feels ‘lightweight’ and small in the hand, compared with bulletproof CX1 build and solid feel
- 12MP files (jpeg only) are very detailed …although images not quite as responsive to processing as CX1 jpegs, in my experience
- New F70EXR has wider focal range, and is less expensive – but its sensor is more highly pixel-packed
- Overall – great camera, hoped for more than it has delivered (so far, at least)
Hope this helps you draw your own conclusions on usability for your own needs – because that’s all that really matters.
Without doubt, all three are very high-quality cameras, and all are capable of great results much of the time, even under very difficult conditions.

John Harrison was a self-educated English carpenter and clockmaker. He invented the marine chronometer, a long-sought after device for solving the problem of establishing the East-West position or longitude of a ship at sea, thus revolutionising and extending the possibility of safe long-distance sea travel in the Age of Sail. The problem was considered so intractable, and following the Scilly naval disaster of 1707 so important, that the British Parliament offered the Longitude prize of £20,000 (£2.75 million). Harrison came 39th in the BBC's 2002 public poll of the 100 Greatest Britons.
John Harrison was born in Foulby, near Wakefield in the West Riding of Yorkshire, the first of five children in his family. His father worked as a carpenter at the nearby Nostell Priory estate. A house on the site of what may have been the family home bears a blue plaque.
In around 1700, the Harrison family moved to the Lincolnshire village of Barrow upon Humber. Following his father's trade as a carpenter, Harrison built and repaired clocks in his spare time. Legend has it that at the age of six, while in bed with smallpox, he was given a watch to amuse himself and he spent hours listening to it and studying its moving parts.
He also had a fascination for music, eventually becoming choirmaster for Barrow parish church.
Harrison built his first longcase clock in 1713, at the age of 20. The mechanism was made entirely of wood, which was a natural choice of material for a joiner. Three of Harrison's early wooden clocks have survived: the first (1713) is at the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers' collection in the Guildhall; the second (1715) is in the Science Museum; and the third (1717) is at Nostell Priory in Yorkshire, the face bearing the inscription "John Harrison Barrow". The Nostell example, in the billiards room of this stately home, has a Victorian outer case, which has been thoughtfully provided with small glass windows on each side of the movement so that the wooden workings may be inspected.
In the early 1720s, Harrison was commissioned to make a new turret clock at Brocklesby Park, North Lincolnshire. The clock still works and like his previous clocks has a wooden movement of oak and lignum vitae. Unlike his early clocks, it incorporates some original features to improve timekeeping, for example the grasshopper escapement. Between 1725 and 1728, John and his brother James, also a skilled joiner, made at least three precision longcase clocks, again with the movements and longcase made of oak and lignum vitae. The grid-iron pendulum was developed during this period. These precision clocks are thought by some to have been the most accurate clocks in the world at the time. They are the direct link to the Harrison's sea clocks. No. 1, now in a private collection, belonged to the Time Museum, USA, until the museum closed in 2000 and its collection was dispersed at auction in 2004. No. 2 is in the Leeds City Museum. It forms the core of a permanent display dedicated to John Harrison's achievements, "John Harrison: The Clockmaker Who Changed the World" and had its official opening on 23 January 2014, the first longitude related event marking the tercentenary of the Longitude Act. No. 3 is in the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers' collection.
Harrison was a man of many skills and he used these to systematically improve the performance of the pendulum clock. He invented the gridiron pendulum, consisting of alternating brass and iron rods assembled so that the different expansions and contractions cancel each other out. Another example of his inventive genius was the grasshopper escapement – a control device for the step-by-step release of a clock's driving power. Developed from the anchor escapement, it was almost frictionless, requiring no lubrication because the pallets were made from lignum vitae. This was an important advantage at a time when lubricants and their degradation were little understood.
In his earlier work on the sea clocks, Harrison was continually assisted both financially and in many other ways by George Graham, the watchmaker and instrument maker. Harrison was introduced to Graham by the Astronomer Royal Edmond Halley, who championed Harrison and his work. This support was important to Harrison, as he is supposed to have found it difficult to communicate his ideas in a coherent manner.
The longitude watches
After steadfastly pursuing various methods during thirty years of experimentation, Harrison moved to London in late 1758 where to his surprise he found that some of the watches made by Graham's successor Thomas Mudge kept time just as accurately as his huge sea clocks. It is possible that Mudge was able to do this after the early 1740s thanks to the availability of the new "Huntsman" or "Crucible" steel produced by Benjamin Huntsman sometime in the early 1740s which enabled harder pinions but more importantly, a tougher and more highly polished cylinder escapement to be produced.Harrison then realized that a mere watch after all could be made accurate enough for the task and was a far more practical proposition for use as a marine timekeeper. He proceeded to redesign the concept of the watch as a timekeeping device, basing his design on sound scientific principles.
Harrison died on his eighty-third birthday and was buried in the graveyard of St John's Church, Hampstead, in north London, along with his second wife Elizabeth and later their son William. His tomb was restored in 1879 by the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers, even though Harrison had never been a member of the Company.
Harrison's last home was in Red Lion Square in London, now a short walk from the Holborn Underground station. There is a plaque dedicated to Harrison on the wall of Summit House in the south side of the square. A memorial tablet to Harrison was unveiled in Westminster Abbey on 24 March 2006, finally recognising him as a worthy companion to his friend George Graham and Thomas Tompion, 'The Father of English Watchmaking', who are both buried in the Abbey. The memorial shows a meridian line (line of constant longitude) in two metals to highlight Harrison's most widespread invention, the bimetallic strip thermometer. The strip is engraved with its own longitude of 0 degrees, 7 minutes and 35 seconds West.
The Corpus Clock in Cambridge, unveiled in 2008, is an homage by the designer to Harrison's work but is of an electromechanical design. In appearance it features Harrison's grasshopper escapement, the 'pallet frame' being sculpted to resemble an actual grasshopper. This is the clock's defining feature.
The Notable awards that was received by John Harrison is Copley Medal (1749)


"Gloomy." That's the outlook on global nuclear arms reduction from a Stockholm-based think tank. According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), Asian countries increasing the size of their nuclear arsenals while a number of countries—including the United States—are contemplating expensive nuclear weapons upgrades. Regional arms races, insecurity, and the U.S. and Russia's continued reliance on nuclear weapons are major causes.
The SIPRI report notes that the overall number of nuclear weapons dropped by 455 in the last year, from 15,850 to 15,395. This net reduction is the result of the U.S. and Russia decommissioning nukes, although the two countries together still have 14,290 weapons, divided almost evenly between the two.
Nuclear weapons in Asia are on the rise. China, North Korea, India, and Pakistan are all increasing their nuclear arsenals and modernizing their delivery systems. The report says that China is "gradually increasing its nuclear forces as it modernizes its arsenal." China has an estimated 260 nuclear weapons, but it has so far refrained from producing the nuclear fuel to create more. China in the past has built gigantic, city-busting megaton nukes to make up for inaccurate missiles, but as accuracy improves they may dismantle existing weapons to create more, smaller warheads. Beijing is also preparing to send its latest nuclear missile submarines to sea and is placing multiple warheads on long-range land-based nuclear missiles.
More From Popular Mechanics
North Korea continues to grow its nuclear arsenal. The totalitarian country is estimated to have 10 to 16 nuclear weapons and appears to have restarted its nuclear reactor at Yongbyon, which will give it the capability to produce fuel for up to two more weapons per year.
India and Pakistan are locked in a regional arms race. India has between 100 and 120 nuclear weapons, while Pakistan has slightly more, between 110 and 130. Both countries are also looking to build their own versions of a nuclear "triad", with nukes split between air, land and sea delivery forces to prevent a surprise attack from eliminating their nuclear arsenals.
While the U.S. and Russia are decommissioning weapons, they're also modernizing delivery systems. The U.S. is producing the latest version of its tactical nuclear bomb, the B61-12, and is contemplating a new nuclear long-range cruise missile. The Pentagon is also ordering the new B-21 bomber and is preparing to replace the Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile and the Ohio-class nuclear missile submarine with next-generation replacements.
Russia is researching a new long-range bomber, is introducing a new generation of ballistic missile subs, and continues to invest in long-range land-based missiles, including treaty-breaking cruise missiles.

Benefits & Disadvantages of Dry Heat Sterilization:
What is Dry Heat Sterilization?
Dry heat sterilization is really a sterilization method that Uses really hot temperatures to kill and eliminate possible pathogenic organisms in an object or surface. Specifically, dry heat sterilization is achieved via the practice of heat conduction, which is an expression that refers to the transport of heat from 1 thing into another. Throughout dry heat sterilization, heat from 1 object is transferred to a different item. Then, the warmth gradually travels through the item until the whole object is warmed. Once an item is heated to a high enough temperature for a long enough time, it is going to become sterilized.
There are two different varieties of dry heat sterilization. One type is known as mechanical convection, and it entails a buff that helps circulate the heated air across the heated room (consider a convection oven that’s found in many homes and restaurants). The other sort is known as static-air, and it does not involve a buff. Rather, static-air dry heat sterilization simply involves a heating source (usually in the bottom of the room ) which will create the heat to rise naturally. The mechanical convection system is the faster, and more consistent process of dry heat sterilization.
For dry heat sterilization to operate effectively, a certain Temperature needs to be attained for a particular amount of time. These temperatures and times include:
- 300 degrees Fahrenheit for 2.5 hours or longer
- 320 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 hour
- 340 degrees Fahrenheit for 0.5 hours
- There are several advantages to utilizing heat Sterilization technique, and these benefits include:
- It Doesn’t cause metals to rust or rust
- It’s relatively cheap
- It does not release any harmful or hazardous fumes or pollutants
Disadvantages for dry heat sterilization contain:
- It is comparatively slow (may take a couple hours)
- Many objects Can’t withstand the very high temperatures required for dry heat sterilization (ex: some plastics would melt)

Detectives have released the name and pictures of a man wanted in connection with a rape in July 2010.
The police have named the suspect as Kohwam Dayoh Adio Agnide, 23. He is originally from Benin in Africa, and was also a lodger at the premises.
At approximately 20.00hrs on 11st July 2010 a 22-year-old woman was raped at a residential address in Upland Road, Dulwich. At the time of the incident the female victim was renting a room at this property when she was left alone with the suspect. This was when he allegedly raped her.
Police are aware that Mr Agnide entered the UK on a business visa in December 2009 and is potentially staying in this country illegally.
Officers from the Metropolitan Police’s Sapphire Unit believe that Mr. Agnide may be in south London. They have information to suggest that he could be working in the Elephant and Castle area of Southwark under a different name.
Detective Constable James Gerrard from Sapphire in Southwark said: “This man has multiple identities and we believe he may be living and working in the Elephant and Castle area. We would like to urge this man to contact us immediately so that we can speak to him about this allegation. If you think you recognise his photograph or know who and where this man is, we would like to hear from you.”
Anyone with information is asked to call DC Gerrard or DS May Carpenter on 020 7232 6182 or call crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
