Changes in environmental forces drive mold growth.
One of the most influential analyses of American construction is James Marston Fitch's "American Building: The Environmental Forces That Shape It". Fitch explores how buildings were designed and built in the past in the United States, and suggests that to a large degree the forms that buildings took in the past were largely the result of reactions to the cultural and natural environment around them.
The natural environment is obviously one of the major forces.
For example, in the hot moist south, houses were made of thin wood clapboard, had large openings and deep verandas, and steeply pitched roofs. This is because air movement and shade were the means of maintaining a comfortable living environment, and because there were intermittent torrential rains. Wood was plentiful, so houses were made of wood. In contrast, in the hot dry southwest, the houses had thick massive walls, very small openings and flat roofs. This is because massive walls remained cool during the day and warm at night. Small openings prevented sunlight from shining indoors causing it to become heated.
Since there is little rain, there was no need for steeply pitched roofs. Adobe and stone were plentiful, and wood was scarce, so houses were made of adobe and stone. In the Northeast, clapboard was originally needed to cover over the medieval styled "wattle and daub" buildings of the original settlers. The mud walls of those buildings tended to melt and rot away without the waterproofing layer of clapboard.
Over time, the characteristic colonial style building evolved that did away with the timber and mud behind the clapboard, and developed a large central hearth structure that provided heat for the entire home. Relatively large windows let sunshine in during the winter, and shutters prevented it from entering during the summer. Similar examples can be drawn from all of the various environments across the country.
But traditional architecture was not shaped simply by a pure response to the natural environment. It was also a reflection of the cultural environment in which it existed. So buildings in the same region were similar in their response to the natural environment, but may vary widely in the "style" in which they accomplish it. For example, old buildings to the south and west of Philadelphia do not look like those in Philadelphia, in part because the Swedes brought their architectural traditions to the area to the south and west, and the British brought theirs to Philadelphia.
Or for example the Victorian mansions of Albany do not look like the buildings in the Shaker communities a few miles away that were built at the same time, because one culture celebrated wealth and the other celebrated simplicity. Although they responded to the same natural environment to provide an acceptable living environement, the style in which they accomplished it differed widely.
There is an architectural cliche that dates at least as far back as the 19th Century French architect and theoretician Violette le Duc, which asserts that all of the various ornamental details we take for granted in classical architectural styles are vestiges of previous functional elements.
For example, the various parts of a classical cornice, all the clutter of dentils, triglyphs, metopes, guttae, architraves and other obscure objects, are merely the vestiges of the ends of roof rafters, the beams on which they rested, pegs to hold them in place, and so on. While this may be interesting for architectural historians, it is also a relevant analytic tool to consider when we assess current architectural practice, especially in residential construction.
The ornamental gee-gaws that make the exterior of buildings "interesting" today once were there "decorating" the buildings because they had functional roles to play. For example, elaborate ornamental trim around Victorian windows originated as a functional necessity. Wood planks inserted around the window openings served to keep water out of the walls. The simple trim was carefully and painstakingly shaped so that it integrated into the building framing and siding to shed water. Over time, they became more and more elaborate, until they appeared to have an ornamental life of their own.
Today, it is not unusual to find highly ornamental window trim that is just nailed to the surface of a building without any water-shedding function at all. And many times, nothing is installed at the window to replace the water-shedding function of the trim. Or, more correctly, nearly nothing is added to replace the function of the trim. There might be a smear of caulk around some of the joints, maybe a sheet of plastic somewhere in the wall. Admittedly, it is the hard thing to do to understand how the trim functions, and to integrate a carefully shaped piece of wood into the building fabric. Easier to rely "wonder" materials like silicone, plastic, polyolefin, and polystyrene to somehow hold the environmental forces at bay, at least for a while.
Once we rely on these wonder materials and technologies to perform building functions rather than relying on the architectural elements they replaced, the next logical step is to entirely remove the functional role once played by the architectural elements. Architectural elements without functions are, by definition, ornaments. They have no function except to please the eye. They no longer have an inherent context in which they must exist, and therefore can be applied anywhere where it pleases the eye.
The same holds true for architectural styles. Once, styles were specific to a certain place. But the ornaments that identify the style have had their functional role removed, so now styles can be used anywhere. It is not unusual, and in fact it is the norm, to find buildings of all styles from all historical periods and different environments plunked down cheek-by-jowl in the same development. There are cultured-stone Italianate villas next to brick-veneered Tudor homes; vinyl-sided carpenter gothic bungalows next to Styrofoam adobes. Functional ornamentation and style, once the result of necessity, have become options.
So what? It has made us lazy. It is relatively hard and expensive to build buildings which function well without the high-tech bandages that we now rely on. Easier and cheaper to rely on sealant, and just make the building look like we want it to. But the pretty trim on the front of a house or the stone watercourse at the base of a building was there to function, not simply to please the eye. And very often the function of the elements was to prevent the introduction of water into the building. Pitched roofs, clapboard siding, deep overhangs, elaborate window trim, and other devices that delight designers today all evolved to keep the interior dry. Dry houses and dry buildings don't grow mold.
Once architectural elements lost their functionality, the understanding of how and why they functioned was lost. Architects and builders were freed of the requirement that they understand how buildings function, and were free to simply decide how buildings look.
Many Architects have become designers of pictures of architecture, not designers of Architecture. Their product pleases the eye, but they do not function properly.
The lack of knowledge of the utilitarian underpinnings of the elements of architectural style has resulted in the creation of architectural time bombs in every community in America. The symptom of the time bombs is mold. The cause of the mold is unmanaged water in the building environment.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has released its long-awaited final regulation on the “Use of Lead Free Pipes, Fittings, Fixtures, Solder and Flux for Drinking Water.” IAPMO has been an active participant in the rule-making process from the beginning and submitted numerous comments for consideration.
The rule’s goal is to reduce lead in drinking water and assure that states, manufacturers, inspectors and consumers have a common understanding of “lead-free” plumbing. In the final rule, the EPA makes conforming changes to existing regulations based on the Reduction of Lead in Drinking Water Act of 2011 (RLDWA) and the Community Fire Safety Act enacted by Congress. The final rule also requires that manufacturers or importers certify that their products meet the requirements using a consistent verification process within three years of the final rule publication date in the Federal Register.
Additionally, manufacturers with 10 or more employees, as well as importers entering products purchased from or produced by manufacturers with 10 or more employees, must obtain third-party certification by an ANSI-accredited certification body in order to demonstrate, with some exceptions, that any pipe or plumbing fitting or fixture introduced into commerce meets the definition of lead free.
A helpful graphic explaining the new rule is available HERE.
To read the rule in its entirety and learn more about it, direct your web browser to the following URLs:
Though initially proposed, the final rule stops short of requiring the marking and labeling of lead-free pipes, fittings and fixtures, citing that the EPA “anticipates the final rule’s certification provisions, combined with the widespread practice of voluntary labeling by firms that obtain third-party certification, will likely result in the marketing of many potable use plumbing products in a way that communicates the lead-free status of the products to the purchaser without the burden of regulatory requirements to do so.” The EPA does, however, continue to recommend the marking and labeling of lead-free products and packages to indicate compliance with the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA).
The rule does require a label for solder that is not lead free, which must state, “… illegal to use the solder or flux in the installation or repair of any plumbing providing water for human consumption.”
The EPA recognizes three certification standards as being in compliance with the rule: NSF/ANSI Standard 372; NSF/ANSI Standard 61, Annex G; and California AB 1953, Section 116875. IAPMO R&T and ASSE International are third-party certification bodies that can evaluate products and provide nationally recognized certification. With successful completion of that evaluation and certification, manufacturers are authorized to use IAPMO or ASSE certification marks to prove they meet RLDWA.
The White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) reviewed the rule on July 8. The RLDWA changed the SDWA’s definition of “lead-free” to require that by Jan. 4, 2014, all pipes and potable water plumbing fixtures have a weighted average of no more than 0.25 percent lead content. Previously, pipes and pipe fittings could contain up to 8 percent lead and still be considered lead-free. The EPA in 2012 began exploring how to address the need for new labeling of lead-free fixtures, and plumbing fixtures manufacturers urged the agency in 2013 to provide the industry with maximum flexibility to select third-party certifiers to ensure products meet the newer standards. The agency conducted additional outreach to stakeholders, including a 2015 webinar, before proposing its rule in 2017.
“While we expect the official regulation to be posted in the Federal Register any day, this updated Final Rule released by the EPA is a welcome sight,” said Dain Hansen, IAPMO executive vice president of Government Relations. “Nearly a decade since the Reduction of Lead in Drinking Water Act of 2011 was signed into law, this new regulation helps all facets of the industry with a clear understanding of how to comply with the law and how we can help keep lead out of our nation's drinking water. IAPMO's nearly 100-year-old commitment to public safety and health remains unchanged. As this new regulation takes effect, we will continue to provide world-class code and standards development along with product testing and certification.”

THE manager of High Street Mall has dismissed rumours sweeping the town that a number of its stores are to close.
Tracey Jackson said there was absolutely no truth in rumours that Game, Clinton Cards and Box were to close, nor that Dunnes Stores was to be replaced by Asda.
Meanwhile, management from the Streat cafe in the mall also stressed that it will not be closing. They are, rather, looking for a new franchisee for the business which they insist is"doing very well".
Ms Jackson expressed regret at the recent closure of Eason's and Woolworth's, which she described as a "sad loss" to the mall, but added that negotiations were still ongoing with a tenant to replace Eason's.
She also said that a new tenant is poised to take over another unit in the mall in February but that she could not divulge any more details until the lease is signed. "The mall traded well over Christmas, and while all the retailers would like to have done better, footfall was still up on last year," she said.
The credit crunch has undoubtedly taken its tolls on businesses in the town with Adams and O'Brien's cafe also having pulled down the shutters.
There had been fears that the Streat cafe was to be the latest victim, but management this week said that was "definitely not the intention" and pointed out that all its branches had reported increased sales.
Brain Kelly, who is responsible for franchisee recruitment and property acquisition for the Streat group, said the agreement with High Street Mall's previous franchisee had ended last Thursday and the company was now seeking a new franchisee.
"There are four people who are interested in buying the franchise at the moment, two of whom are very serious contenders," he said. "The cafe in Portadown is trading as usual. Once a franchisee goes, we take the cafe back into our fold, until a new buyer is found."
Mr Kelly pointed out that all of the streat's 32 cafes in Northern Ireland, Ireland and Scotland (the first Scottish one opened just before Christmas), had shown increased sales year on year with an average increase in sales of eight per cent throughout November.
He said, " I think that with the credit crunch what we are seeing is people going to cafes like the streat, where they can get quality food, instead of going to more expensive restaurants.
"We choose our franchisees very carefully and we have a very active programme to help them. Franchises are normally for five years and we both have to be mutually happy with the arrangement so we need to make sure we get the right person."
Mr Kelly hopes to have a new franchisee signed up within the next two or three weeks, and he added that the franchisee would undergo a four-week training course before taking over the reins in the Portadown cafe.

Deaths in Japan hit a post-war record of 1,452,289 in 2021, and the Delta variant of the novel coronavirus was partly to blame.
The Department of Health released preliminary population trend figures on Feb. 25, which show deaths rose by 67,745 from a year earlier, the highest number since the end of World War II.
And continuing a long-standing trend, the number of births hit an all-time high in 2021 at 842,897.
The number of deaths in 2020 fell year-over-year for the first time in 11 years. The number has since climbed.
An analysis of the causes of death revealed that COVID-19 resulted in 14,563 additional deaths during the period between January and September compared to the same period the previous year.
In addition, around 20,000 additional deaths were in the elderly. Natural causes or aspiration pneumonia were responsible.
The number of births in 2021 decreased by 29,786 compared to the previous year.
Despite concerns that more women were waiting to get pregnant due to the pandemic, a health ministry official said the decrease reflected a similar trend that was evident before the public health crisis.
Officials said they expected the birth rate to continue to fall as fewer people marry.
There were 514,242 marriages in 2021, a decrease of 23,341 from the previous year.


Magnetic fluids are stable colloidal suspensions of permanently magnetized nanoparticles in a nonmagnetic carrier liquid. Among the various technical applications, there has been increasing interest in the development of magnetic fluids that meet electrical properties and breakdown requirements of high power transformers. For that purpose, magnetic fluids based on transformer oils have been intensively studied. The essential purpose of the development of such a magnetic colloidal medium and its industrial application consists in the service life extension of millions of aging transformers due to the ferrofluid’s enhanced cooling and insulating effectiveness. On the other hand, the transformers with magnetic fluids may be smaller, more efficient and posses improved dielectric capabilities.
In this paper, we focus on recent progress in transformer oil based magnetic fluids research. Besides the basic structural and magnetic properties, we present both thermal and electrical properties of selected magnetic fluids. The cooling effectiveness of the magnetic fluid applied in a model transformer will be shown and compared with that of pure transformer oil. We demonstrate some peculiar structural behavior of the magnetic fluid exposed to external electric fields. It is shown that magnetic nanoparticles in transformer oil can form an electric field driven assembly and patterned structures. The physical conditions allowing the field induced structural changes are therefore discussed too.

Delicious Peaches and Almond Cream Braided Strudel
I may receive a commission if you purchase something mentioned in this post. See more details here.
There’s nothing like peaches in the summer. Fresh, fleshy, ripe and delectable peach flavor, just drips from ripe peaches! What do you do when buying bumper crops of peaches? You make easy and delicious peaches and almond cream braided strudel!
For as long as I can remember, I wait to create my ‘Just Peachy’ recipes in late July and the beginning of August. Why? Because the best of South Carolina Peaches are in and I get to Feelin Peachy!’
I am about to share with you a recipe I have been making for over 15+ years. Use this recipe to impress your guests, serving it al fresco when you are dining outside. If you love white wine, these pair so nicely! Let’s bake!
Easy and Delicious Peach Almond Strudel
Let me give you a little insight into my recipe. Summer is supposed to be a time to enjoy, so, for this version of the recipe, I am using store-bought pie crust.
Please note it is not because I don’t know how to make perfect pie crust, it is because I want to do other things and not be stuck in the kitchen!
However, if you want to replace the store-bought pie crust with your own homemade, knock your socks off! Admittedly, braiding is not my forte, but doing what I am about to show you make is possible to braid like a pro and end up with a great looking and incredible tasting dessert!
Last, because I prefer to keep the peaches in their most natural state, I do not PEEL the skin off of the peaches. It just makes no sense to put extra effort into something that if I were eating whole I would leave on!
The key to the recipe is the fresh South Carolina peaches, especially Old 96 District peaches! Truly very succulent fruit, begging to be consumed.
Recipe For Peach Almond Strudel
Preheat Oven to 375° Fahrenheit. Then begin gathering and preparing the recipe. I additionally recommend using parchment paper as it makes cleanup so much easier!
CREAM CHEESE FILLING
Cream Cheese Cube – the whole thing, softened.
1/2 C White Sugar
2 teaspoons of Almond Flavoring
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Flavoring
Egg Yolk (1)
STRUDEL FRUIT PREP
5 peaches rinsed and uniformly sliced (as best as you can)
1/4 C Sugar
PIE DOUGH PREPARATION
Unroll pie crust from the packaging. On a smooth surface, roll out the dough. Using a rolling pin, form dough more into a really large oval. On the exterior of each side, slice into the crust about 1/3 of the way to the middle. Do the same from the other side.
Make sure to keep strips at about 1″ intervals. You will be overlapping these across the filling once you spread the cream cheese filling down the middle.
Top Of Dough Before Baking
Crack one egg, and reserve the Yolk Only. Mix in 2 tablespoons of water. Whisk well.
Confectioners Sugar when Done Baking and Cooled
In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients for the cream cheese filling. Blend until smooth. Set aside and begin working on Strudel Fruit. Simply take the peach slices (skin on) and place into a large mixing bowl. Dust with sugar. Set aside.
Next, work on the dough as described above. Also, use the video to help guide you through the cutting and braiding process.
Time To Fill The Pie Dough
First, take 3 large tablespoons full of the almond cream cheese filling. Place them down the center, carefully avoiding all the places you cut. Stay right down the middle. It’s easy. Then use your spoon to swirl and cover all the surface area in the middle.
Next, remove peaches from the nonstick pan, one by one (or from the bowl) and cover the almond cream from top to bottom with peaches. Allow them to overlap, or place a few extra atop to cover gaps!
Last, it’s time to criss-cross the dough. Start at either end and begin with one piece, pulling from left to right across the filling. Then use a piece from the other side, and continue this until you reach the other end. Make sure to pinch off the ends so they don’t leak when baking!
Use the whisked egg yolk and water to brush across the top of the peaches and almond cream braided strudel. Then, place in the oven and bake at 375° until it is golden brown, about 35 minutes.
Allow to cool on the rack, then serve. Refrigerate leftovers. This is just the right amount of crunchy with a mesh of fruit pleasure! Sure to delight anyone that tastes it. Doesn’t it look yummy? Enjoy!Enjoy your peach creation of almond cream and fresh peaches, baked tight into this braided strudel! Sit down, sip a glass of wine, enjoy the outdoors and slice a piece! ~ DANA XO

What is the average IQ for a 10 year old?
If the 10-year-old had a mental age of 8, the child’s IQ would be 8/10 × 100, or 80. Based on this calculation, a score of 100—where the mental age equals the chronological age—would be average. Few tests continue to involve the computation of mental ages. See also Lewis Terman; Alfred Binet.
Are people born intelligent?
Many studies rely on a measure of intelligence called the intelligence quotient (IQ). Researchers have conducted many studies to look for genes that influence intelligence. … These studies suggest that genetic factors underlie about 50 percent of the difference in intelligence among individuals.
Is a IQ of 138 good?
85 to 114: Average intelligence. 115 to 129: Above average or bright. 130 to 144: Moderately gifted. 145 to 159: Highly gifted.

Can you increase your IQ?
Although science is on the fence about whether you can raise your IQ or not, research does seem to suggest that it’s possible to raise your intelligence through certain brain-training activities. Training your memory, executive control, and visuospatial reasoning can help to boost your intelligence levels.
Can someone with a low IQ be successful?
If you’re low-IQ, you’re less likely to succeed to the same degree that a kid from a poor family is less likely to succeed. But kids from poor families do sometimes succeed — Bill Clinton and Steve Jobs being famous examples.
Is 110 IQ good?
For example, on The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale and the Stanford-Binet test, scores that fall between 90 and 109 are considered average IQ scores. On these same tests, scores that fall between 110 and 119 are considered high average IQ scores. Scores between 80 and 89 are classified as low average.

text: Contemporary tattoos are performed in various styles – fantasy, Polynesian, Russian, Oriental, Japanese. The art of drawing Japanese tattoos today is on the peak of its popularity. As a rule, each of the plots carries a certain meaning, hidden in the symbols. One of the most popular themes is the dragon in various compositions. The meaning of this image is often correlated with wisdom, strength, self-confidence. In addition, images of fish are considered a symbol of courage, tigers – with fearlessness. In addition, Japanese style often is chosen by women who ask a tattoo master creating a tattoo of sakura flowers, chrysanthemums, peonies. Japanese style can be guessed by some of the most striking features: tattoos are quite extensive and are performed in a certain form resembling a kimono. Many shades and lines are present. They create a large composition made of many mini-pictures within the boundaries of a large tattoo. Therefore, a tattoo artist works on a Japanese tattoo several days, using for his work Magnum 15RM needles that give the best result in making fast long lines on large skin areas. Magnum 15RM needles come sterile, and they can be easily sterilized after work. Thus, when a client comes to his master to go with a tattoo, the artist can use the same high-quality needles.

text: The positive and negative psychological impact of secondary exposure to politically motivated violence was examined among body handlers and hospital rehabilitation workers, 2 groups that differed in their proximity and immediacy to violent events. Survivors of politically motivated violence served as a comparison group. Body handlers experienced high levels of positive psychological impact and traumatic stress symptoms. Levels of positive psychological impact among on-scene body handlers were higher than those experienced by rehabilitation workers. Traumatic stress symptoms predicted positive psychological impact among body handlers. These findings indicate that proximity to stressors is associated with higher levels of positive and negative psychological impact. Physical proximity is a major contributory factor to both positive and negative psychological effects of secondary exposure to trauma.

Former Honda Civic model
(Mirror Daily, United States) The widely-appreciated Paris Motor Show begun this weekend in the city capital of France, and it will last for the next two weeks, until October 16. One of the most remarkable models that visitors can see is the new Honda Civic Type R Concept. Here are some details on the impressive vehicle.
Although it is just a concept, the Honda model drew a lot of attention from visitors and specialists. The features of the Honda Civic Type R Concept can only predict good things about the upcoming vehicle, which will be destined to production.
The new Honda Civic Type R Concept has both the looks and the technology that can turn the model into the public’s favorite. As far as design is concerned, developers were inspired by that of Civic Hatchback, another car from Honda. It naturally features the red Honda label, while the body is elegantly black. The air dam is a bit larger than that of the hatchback model. The wheels display red stripes, which elegantly match the other subtle red details of the car, contrasting with the black color.
The lights on the front are white, but the taillights are also red, which lead to more contrast. The back of the car also features the Type R badge, and the Honda sign, just like the front. The tailpipes are positioned in the middle, as opposes to the side tailpipes of previous models.
The new Honda Civic Type R Concept brings improvement if compared to previous models. It has approximately three hundred fifty horsepower. All in all, it can be described as a more aggressive car, in both looks and action. Even the shape of the car contributes to it.
Although specialists and visitors can tell details on the appearance of the car just by looking at it, they still don’t know what is inside the new Honda Civic Type R Concept. Developers haven’t released any information yet. The former Type R model featured many red details. However, it was quite different from its own former model.
With its elegant, but sporty design, the new Honda Civic Type R Concept keeps its mysteries behind closed doors. However, there are still some high points about its exterior which make us believe that the interior is just as good. Is the new Honda Civic Type R Concept one of your favorite cars at the Paris Motor Show this year?

Session 2B | Nov 16, 2016
I like the last sketch, although not quite very sure what’s going on. Looks like a doctor looking at the patient who’s breaking through the (glass) wall? Anyway, it’s good composition, looking forward for the next step – then I’ll be able to give you some detailed help.
Thanks for the feedback Neko! That is exactly what it is! I wanted to represent how would the feelings described in the song “look” to me, and I ended up with this “weird” scene, which I believe has a powerful meaning, too.
Yes it does look powerful. Reminds me of weird world of director Michel Gondry, here’s some of his videos for Bjork, for example:

On Saturday November 10th from 10 am – 4 pm, the Chico Permaculture Guild will host a “permablitz” event – a hands on learning day in which you will learn how to design and install a rooftop rainwater harvesting system for your home, farm or any building with a roof. Photo: Chico Permaculture Guild’s Logo. Photo courtesy of Chico Permaculture Guild.
“Learn how to passively and effectively store seasonal rainwater in the soil for surrounding plant use. Measure rooftop collection area and calculate the volume of water a roof sheds into the landscape each year. You will be amazed at just how much!!
The CPG group will be implementing a simple infiltration trench and corresponding mulch basin for this rooftop catchment design. Please bring gloves, a shovel and water bottle for a day of hands on learning outdoors! Photo: An example of a rainwater harvesting technique in the form of an in-ground rain-catchment and infiltration trench to better store rainwater run-off on site, allow it to slowly percolate into the soil thereby being better available to surround roots, being filtered by the soil, and eventually helping to recharge the associated groundwater source or aquifer. Photo Courtesy of Chico Permaculture Guild.
This event is FREE and lunch is provided by the hosts! If you have food allergies or special dietary requirements you will want to bring your own food.
IMPORTANT: You must register for this event! We have capacity for 25 people to attend so register early! REGISTER HERE: http://november2012permablitz.eventbrite.com/
Registered participants will be carpooling out to Butte Valley for this event. Meet at the Hwy 32 Park and Ride at 9am on the 10th. If you can provide a vehicle for others to ride in please contact Stephanie at email@example.com or call 530-828-6390.
Please note, excessive rainfall will cancel this event. You will be notified in advance should the event be canceled.
Under the organizational leadership of Stephanie Ladwig-Cooper, owner with her husband Brian of Gaia Creations, Ecological Landscaping & Permaculture Solutions for People and Planet, the Chico Permaculture Guild is a group of people organizing in the Chico community in order to facilitate the outreach of permaculture education. The guild organizes workshops which assist homeowners, renters and property owners alike as well as collaborates with the local community on local sustainability efforts.

Become more connected with fellow permaculturists -network both online and with each other
Host Permablitz (Garden Wheel) events – helping members and interested parties on projects at home, rotating from site to site to come together and put our energy into our own home zones, planting seeds, growing food and habitat as a collective.
Promote local permaculture-based projects and networking between local groups -network within already established groups that are carrying out projects of sustainability or good nature within the community.
Host Permaculture workshops and classes – as a guild we seek to entice the community to look out into our greater watershed and design and implement as many Permaculture projects as possible which restore, revitalize and regenerate natural systems that have been impacted by humans.
Our motivation for the future is to hold permaculture training courses and eventually PDC courses as demand for practical knowledge and hands on skills in permaculture is ever increasing.
A concept first articulated in the mid-1970s by Australians Bill Mollison and David Holmgren. They published the book “PermaCulture One” in 1978. Photo: CPG held seed swap earlier this fall to promote and provide access to locally saved and adapted seed sources. Photo courtesy of Chico Permaculture Guild.
According to Holmgren’s website, Permaculture is:
“Consciously designed landscapes which mimic the patterns and relationships found in nature, while yielding an abundance of food, fibre and energy for provision of local needs. People, their buildings and the ways in which they organise themselves are central to permaculture. Thus the permaculture vision of permanent or sustainable agriculture has evolved to one of permanent or sustainable culture.”
“More precisely permaculture is a “design system based on ecological principles” which provides the organizing framework for implementing the above vision. In this more limited, but important sense it draws together the diverse skills and ways of living which need to be rediscovered and developed to empower us to move from being dependent consumers to becoming responsible producers.”
“In this sense, permaculture is not the landscape, or even the skills of organic gardening, sustainable farming, energy efficient building or eco-village development as such, but can be used to design, establish, manage and improve these and all other efforts made by individuals, households and communities towards a sustainable future.”
Previously known as Garden Wheel events, the CPG hosts these events on a regular “as requested” basis. “The best way of describing a Permablitz comes from Australia, the founding continent of the Permaculture movement: Photo: CPG members in progress on a mulch and lawn overhaul project. Photo courtesy of Chico Permaculture Guild.
‘“Blitz”, from the german for lightening, means a focused application of energy. A permablitz is when that energy is focused on installing part of a permaculture system. “Perma” is short for permaculture, which is a design system for sustainable living and land use. As a comprehensive design system, permaculture includes much more than organic food gardening. Growing at least some of our food where we live, however, has always been a central emphasis within the broader picture of permaculture.”
As described by Stephanie, a permablizt is generally preceded by an initial consultation with the site owner – generally a member of the guild, but not always. Then, a pre-blitz working-design session takes place with one or more of the certified permcaulture designers from the guild leading the session and covering the relevant permaculture design elements. For instance, in the case of the upcoming permablitz, attendees were taught the various methods (above ground/barrels/in ground, etc.) for collecting water, for calculating water volume off a given roofline. They then used that information to determine which method served the goals of the site and the owners and created a design from there. Photo: Stephanie Ladwig-Cooper and friends. Photo courtesy of Chico Permaculture Guild.
Currently there are about 126 “members” of the CPG on the Facebook page, and there are five certified permaculture designers in the group. Several of these, including Stephanie and Brian, were certified by Cathé Fish of Practical Permaculture in the Nevada City area. Cathé hosts workshops and certification seminars all over Northern California.

Hello, it has been 7 months since I have been on these forums due struggling with low mood and that sort of thing. Sadly its as if I've logged out and logged back in again. The same frustrations and misunderstandings that people are experiencing.
Most being bullied in school for being different, feeling unable to express who you really are for fear of it not being accepted, some people rejecting its a real thing, some people believing it can be cured. Am I referring to autism today or homophobia decades ago? How many of your favourite comedy shows have a "weird" peripheral character who pops up only occasionally to be pointed and laughed at their complete lack of self awareness and social norms. How many of these characters are likely to be on the spectrum? Its as casual in our society as the word "gay" meaning "bad" was not so long ago.
I'm sure a lot of you will relate to the idea of saying things that are not popular opinions or at least having to fight hard not to say them. Unfortunately I think the process by which we move towards better understanding and equality is not the ideal world situation we would like it to be, rather that a cause has to become fashionable.
It is trendy to be seen to be pro certain causes and while those causes are no more or less worthy, it doesn't help those that haven't had their time in the sun yet. It seems that these causes are the ones that are pursued the most perhaps due to their fashionable current stock, or perhaps because they are seen as easier because they are already further ahead in the process. It seems that ignoring the fact that a cause has to become trendy only makes the task harder than if we accept that fear of being seen to not be in line with current opinion is a more powerful driving force in people's behaviour than genuine compassion and wanting society to be the best it can be. If you want proof of that just look at how much we would look down on Russia due to them being behind on attitudes towards sexuality. We act appalled, as though we would never dream of such lack of acceptance when we are still seeing the back end of that culture in our country. Does anyone dispute this? And how do we make autism fashionable?
I think we generally have little interest in being fashionable. But you're right, we need to be out-and-proud just as the LGBT community does.
I agree, I have no interest in being fashionable, but I do have an interest in awareness, understanding and equality. I was just musing the idea that it has to be fashionable in order to achieve full acceptance and understanding these days. I.e. people feeling it will get them Instagram likes by being seen to be interested in it is more powerful now for the mainstream than the power of human kindness. Its a very cynical view I admit but I believe its true and I believe ignoring it would make it an even more uphill battle. Its ironic that we may have to become on trend for people to listen to us and our right to be different.
I'm gay as well as AS and have lived through second wave feminism and backlash; gay rights and backlash, anti-racism and backlash. Disability seems to be getting a lot of notice now and this is a good thing, other socially marginalised groups did it by supporting each other to be visible and advocate for more rights and we need to find ways of developing the kinds of self-defined supportive community that we can cope with as AS people?
Yes that sounds like absolutely the right thing to do. Coming together with other AS people was the main reason I originally joined this forum. I haven't had much luck with that. When I tried to raise concerns at my work (supposedly one of the leading organisations for equality) I was basically told that gender equality was what they were focused on at the moment (which is fairly equal in that organisation) and I raised concerns multiple times and absolutely zero was done about any of it.
That's a bit of a cop out - bet they're telling women they're focused on disability Gays have places to hang out - which would be anathema for AS as they're generally noisy and flashing. Wonder what an AS cafe would look like?
Loads of people ignoring each other?
I agree that the portrayal of autism on television shows is mostly via a caricature rather than authentic character. This does remind me of how gay people were portrayed in the comedy dramas of my younger days. Autism activists often compare ABA to gay conversion therapy. It feels sometimes that we are being prepared for some sort of Uncle Tom role. Raising awareness is equated with television time and the trivialising impact of celebrity endorsement.
We are witnessing a macabre dance betwixt reality and rhetoric. The politicians assure us they take homelessness very seriously whilst the numbers rise; the new benefit system is proclaimed fairer as the food banks continue to proliferate; a burgeoning professional charity sector dispenses anonymous advice via web pages; the phone lines may be busy; you are autistic, goodbye.
To hell with that. First and foremost, I would like there to be a rigorous debate about the pathology. The debate is going on and - in my opinion - more credible theories are being proposed and discussed in universities and conference halls. Why are they not being introduced and discussed on the web site of the National Autistic Society? We are the experts. The dreadful statistics of suicide, depression, anxiety and alienation need to be addressed, not just collected and collated. Psychology and psychiatry hone their diagnostic techniques, and spend considerable amounts of time and money attempting to prove questionable suppositions. There may well be effective strategies we could employ to alleviate the corrosive effect of some of the symptoms, to at least improve quality of life. The present approach appears designed to perpetuate ignorance and maintain a prognosis bereft of hope. End of rant.
I’ve been to an autism friendly cafe in Australia, it was great. I’ll be opening one myself at some point but mine will be based on good coffee and super delicious raw whole food.
Yes I would agree. I won't even go in to the politics of what the government's official party line is on things as they are purely strings they pull on, attached to floating voters.
I came to this site for action and change and while I don't know what I expect that to look like, I don't think I see much sign of that here or elsewhere. I'm sure its happening somewhere, I just need to find it so I can hopefully be a part of it.
It might look less unusual than a normal café.

I have been Nepal on March 2019 and I had volunteer with We Volunteer Nepal. It was a nice experience while I volunteer for social project of Nepal. I worked with the orphans for a months and help them in the orphanage home, helping them for homework, teaching, playing game and serving the food. I really love them and the children are called me big brother which I felt I am at home. I would love to recommend other to join this project in Nepal.
As said by Kristoffer
Review by Luul2 years ago
First of all, I have to say that Nepal has always appealed to me as a special place to visit. For me it has this deep spiritual aspect due to there being so many temples, monasteries and sacred places which are believed to have special meanings. Nepal proved to be extremely inspiring to me as I met so many people who were open minded, interested in different cultures, spiritually fulfilled and searching for a true meaning in life.
The location of Nepal was a huge attraction, being so close to majestic and beautiful Himalayan Mountains. The world’s highest summit is situated in Nepal and thousands of travelers and mountaineers go to this country every year for treks and expeditions hoping to achieve their own goals and ambitions.
Though I didn’t challenge myself by climbing the mountains, my journey became for me a spiritual mountain and it broadened of my mind. Living in a monastery, teaching nuns, getting involved in the authentic way of living, understanding customs and traditions – it all has become a unique experience which has changed me a lot.
We woke up at around 5 am and went to pray, there was a gong which would be struck throughout. Breakfast began at 6:30 am before classes commenced at 8 am. One of my favorite parts of the day was at 11:30 am when the nuns and I were served Tibetan tea. Everybody went to an open terrace with their cups, sat down and just enjoyed beautiful views around, with a little bit of reading and the occasional chat.
We would then continue teaching. To be honest, I’d never taught children before. I even became a little nervous meeting the young children or even babies as I didn’t know how to treat them. The fact that we were supposed to teach girls aged 10-11 was a relief for me, although of course my first lesson perplexed me. There were ten girls who could hardly speak English. They were all giggling, messing around, teasing each other and staring at us with their deep brown eyes. I just didn’t know what to start with, luckily Jounitta (the other volunteer from Australia) saved us and came up with some great games. Thus we got acquainted and the lesson went really well.
At 3:30 pm we would attend evening puja (praying) with mantras and then we’d have some free time to explore.
There were a few moments which will stay in my mind forever…
The first happened on a day off, we were in the monastery and we thought why not go exploring. The nuns and I decided to go on a walk, so we hiked up the hill on which our monastery was situated. It took us 2 hours to reach the top and we found a male monastery over there. The main monk kindly invited us to join them for lunch and we were so happy sitting beside other monks sharing our story with them. At first the nuns seemed reserved and shy but as long as I kept talking and questioning about the monastery they became curious and started giving glances at what was happening around them. Afterwards we thanked the monks and descended the hill, although it took us a little longer this time as we couldn’t help but play hide and seek in this fairy-tale like forest.
The second memorable moment was a six day trek to a village with all the volunteers. The mountain villages where we stayed had a special atmosphere…when we reached the last village I was scared to break the silence in which the whole place was masked in… I will always remember Poon Hill village for the distinct carpet of a million stars I could see above that night.
I vividly remember the last day of the mountain trek. Breath in, step up… as we kept hiking, my body had got used to it…legs achy from the day before, both calves in need of a stretch and a little rest but we kept moving…the music playing in my headphones motivating me onward. With the Himalayan Mountains in front of us, it constantly reminded me why I was doing it. This six day trek wasn’t expected to be that tough but it turned out to be an amazing challenge for me. I’m incredibly happy that we faced it and successfully completely it, although it wasn’t easy at times. When we reached the final point, I looked at the valley with my head rested and felt so blessed I had got to do it…I was absolutely exhausted but the joy and satisfaction from the experience was incredible!

I have this thing for deserts. Something to do with the emptiness of them – my life feels so cluttered most of the time, and in the desert I relish the space and clarity. Here, we’re reminded that in the big scheme of things we are a mere speck. You’d think there’s little life in these places, but there is plenty, and it has a greater capacity for survival in this extreme climate than you or I. There is great freedom in realising you are insignificant.
Deserts are also really beautiful. And despite their continuous vastness, no two are the same. Earlier this month, some friends and I spent a day in Joshua Tree National Park, in southern California – a most incredible place. Imagine if Dr Seuss had sketched the backdrop for a Western, and you will get an idea of the landscape. Almost 800,000 acres of hilly desert are peppered with giant grey boulders and those curious-looking yucca trees with their strange, tufty fingers. Mormon settlers thought they resembled Joshua, from the Bible, reaching up to the sky to pray.
“If you don’t die of thirst, there are blessings in the desert. You can be pulled into limitlessness, which we all yearn for, or you can do the beauty of minutiae, the scrimshaw of tiny and precise. The sky is your ocean, and the crystal silence will uplift you like great gospel music, or Neil Young.” – Anne Lamott, American novelist
We drove along the main road through the heart of the park, arms dangling lazily from open windows, Fleetwood Mac playing on the stereo. We had large kegs of water slowly warming up in the back, and sandwiches from the Country Kitchen food shack in town. (NB: The store doesn’t look like much, but photos pinned to the wall, between the knick-knacks, newspaper articles and tat, revealed that Anthony Bourdain had eaten there, pictured with his arm around the wonderfully no-nonsense Cambodian woman who runs the place. Bourdain was clearly onto something: my friends and I agreed they were some of the best sandwiches we’d ever had.)
In this national park the eco-systems of two deserts come together – the low stretch of Colorado and rolling heights of the Mojave. In the 1930s local activist Minerva Hoyt, who adored the place, campaigned to protect the area and its fragile landscape, and in 1936 President Roosevelt gave it official protection. In 1994 it received National Park status, under the California Desert Protection Act. It is still at risk of deterioration, due to the expansion and growth of harmful environments around it. This is precisely why deserts are so special; the last few refuges from modern chaos.
A lot of hearts have been won over and swallowed up by Joshua Tree. Famously, musician Gram Parsons, who was so enamoured with it that he wished for his ashes to be scattered there. When he died in 1973, aged just 26, his body was prepared to be flown for burial in New Orleans (under the instruction of his unrelenting father). But his loyal buddies stole the coffin from the airport, drove it to a boulder stack in Joshua Tree and set it on fire. They got caught before the cremation was finished, so off to New Orleans went what was left of poor old Parsons, although at least part of him – quite literally – got to remain in the desert that he loved so much.
My friends and I tackled a couple of short hikes, including a trail in the Lost Horse Valley, to the remains of the old gold and silver mine. It’s just a run-down wooden structure yet it still seems an intrusive blot on the valley view, almost a surprise to come across – and indeed it was cause for many trees to be cleared and for the ground to be torn and harvested of its precious metals, before the mine shut down its system in 1931. The trail is a good little hike though, and walking up to the mine (sensibly fenced off) will give you a decent vantage point from which to soak up your surroundings.
Joshua Tree National Park is easy to access; just ensure you have maps, plenty of water and adequate sun protection – and do check in with the visitor’s centre about any current issues to be aware of. We were given warning about a couple of places where swarms of bees were troublesome. They tend to hang around look-out points where people and cars bring promise of water – and they’re not afraid. (Keep your water bottles lidded at all times!) We braved one such parking stop and bees quickly began to circle our car. After we jumped out, one landed on my foot and started to crawl between my toes… I could only stuff my hat in my mouth and scream like a child until a friend managed to gently shoo it out. Don’t forget, you are insignificant. If there’s any hierarchy here, nature is definitely boss.
There are several camping spots in the park – I hope to return and spend more time revelling in the vast expanse of space, take in the sunsets and sunrises, and maybe see some of the carefully hidden wildlife come out to play. There’s something about this place… Thankfully, while the bees did not, the desert succeeded at getting under my skin. Joshua Tree, I will be back.

Spindale board adopts FY 2014-15 budget
The Spindale Board of Commissioners approved the FY 2014-15 budget draft Monday evening, following multiple work sessions and a public hearing last month. Commissioners Robin Ensley and Tom Roberson voted in favor of the budget motion, while Commissioner Nancy Walker cast the opposing vote. Commissioner Andrew Kirton was not present at the meeting.
Along with the budget, commissioners adopted the town's annual Schedule of Fees and 2014-20 Capital Improvement Plan during the board's regular meeting at the Spindale House.
The budget reflects the consensus of the Board of Commissioners, town manager and town staff. The 2014-15 General Fund amounts to $2,552,620.83 while the Enterprise Fund amounts to $1,303,113.91. This comprises a total budget of $3,855,734.74.
For 2014-15, Spindale will see increases in certain expenditures, most notably including electric rates, solid waste landfill fees, health insurance and wastewater collection and treatment. However, the town will not see a property tax rate increase or any large cuts in town personnel or services.
Addressing old business, commissioners continued their discussion on the town's Wastewater Treatment Plant rehabilitation project. The environmental information documents were submitted to the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR) earlier this month and the town's proposed rehabilitation method is currently under review in Raleigh. The town expects responsive comments from NCDENR in the coming weeks.
Last month, consulting engineer Kurt D. Wright, PE, (whose company's name is now SDG Engineering, Inc.) discussed the details of various alternative rehabilitation methods with commissioners and recommended a course of action. The selected alternative is constructing a vertical loop reactor (VLR) and replacing the existing aeration basin at the Wastewater Treatment Plant. The VLR option will cost $1.4 million in addition to the $5 million price tag previously estimated for the treatment plant's rehabilitation.
Spindale commissioners were reminded of the special joint meeting of the Rutherford County Board of Commissioners and Town Councils of Forest City, Lake Lure, Rutherfordton and Spindale to discuss the Joint Sewer Study on Tuesday, June 24 at 6 p.m. at The Foundation at Isothermal Community College.
Continuing with old business, the board held a public hearing for the town's proposed golf cart ordinance. Spindale citizen Michael Lovelace expressed his concern for the safety of the passengers and operators of the golf carts, while Commissioner Ensley said she felt like part of the ordinance regulating which roads golf carts can be operated on essentially excludes many citizens.
After further discussion, the board voted 2-1 to table the proposed golf cart ordinance until next month's regular meeting, in order to obtain more information on golf cart-related accidents and traffic flow issues. Commissioner Roberson cast the dissenting vote.
Additionally, commissioners discussed a status report on the Chapter 98 Public Nuisance action against the Crain's Service Station property, and whether to abate nuisance conditions of the property.
"The nature of the nuisance can dictate what we can do," said Town Attorney John Crotts. "What it comes down to is what our goal is and what the town is willing to do to reach that goal."
The property is in violation due to structural conditions and certified mailings were sent to the estate's administrator with no response. Police Chief R.A. McIntosh attempted personal service on eight occasions with no response at the administrator's residence. The board took no action on the matter, after further discussion revealed abatement or legal action on the property would cost the town money which it does not have.
Finishing up old business, the board heard a report from Town Clerk Cathy Swafford regarding the costs for direct deposit payroll options.
"Whether I print a check or send a file to the bank for direct deposit, I'm not going to see a difference in my time spent on this," Swafford said.
Commissioners agreed to table the matter until the board's September meeting, to allow enough time for the incoming interim town manager to assist in the discussion.
In new business, commissioners approved a Wastewater Treatment Plant Capital Project Ordinance amendment and four additional budget amendments for closeout of the 2012 State Revolving Fund sewer rehabilitation project, closeout of the North Carolina Parks and Recreation Trust Fund project, Spindale's local portion of the Joint Sewer Study and for retirements, new hires and termination of employment.
The board also took time Monday evening to recognize retirees Glen Harmon (assistant police chief) and Billy Conner (fire chief), as well as outgoing Town Manager Cameron McHargue for their years of dedicated service to the Town of Spindale. Mayor Mickey Bland presented each individual with a framed certificate of recognition (Harmon was not present at the meeting).
Commissioners also approved a resolution to award Harmon his badge and service sidearm on the occasion of his retirement.
Assistant Fire Chief Jamie Guillermo will take over as interim Spindale Fire Chief beginning June 18 and Rob Bole will fill in as interim Town Manager effective July 1.
Concluding the meeting, the board reappointed Bland to the Broad River Water Authority Board of Directors.
The next regular meeting of the Spindale Board of Commissioners is scheduled for Monday, July 7 at 6:30 p.m. at the Spindale House.
