Legacy Journal: Water, Swimming, and going with the Tide.

Section:

Watercooler

Summary:

A run up to the Olympic Games 080808

Main:

I do not recall a time that I have not regarded water from a mostly positive point of view. Maybe it it the surname Fisk, Swedish for fish; maybe it is a vestigial DNA remnant from a former Chinook salmon tree of life ancestor.

Oh, there was a little chop along the way. I recall the time I had to pull my two year old sister out of the deep freeze drink when she fell through an ice bridge while crossing a rushing Strawberry Creek that ran through Grandpa’s place where we were otherwise spending a traditional, safe , cozy, kid centered eastern Oregon Christmas. Today, she has no recollection of the event. 

Come to think of it, I have experienced some seasick moments crossing the bar at the mouth of the Columbia River at Astoria, and rolling with the waves in a storm while waiting to dock at the lime stone cliffs Dover after an English Channel ferry crossing on.  But, those were mostly no harm - no foul events.

Water for me is all about fun, motion, beauty and power. 

My Rites of Passage included climbing up Horsetail Falls with a full pack into the Desolation Wilderness Area above Lake Tahoe to the granite moonscape of the high Sierra that is the snowy source of the American River, fishing behind beaver dams on the Klamath Indian Reservation, SCUB diving solo in mile high alpine Lake Strawberry, spring time water skiing on Lake Shasta with all of my 34 Malin H.S. senior classmates, and carving a pattern of syncopated 15 ft rooster tails behind a single fiberglass slolom ski while skimming across glassy smooth surface of Lake-of-the-Woods during quiet midweek evening after work at the Klamath Fall molding plant. 

Watching white water pound over the spillways at Grande Coulee, Bonneville, and Hoover Dams was also part of my experience exploring the American west .

Another part of my expanding experience included the waves of the warm Atlantic in Southern Florida.  Even the wind driven, poison laden Portuguese Men-of-War cast up on the beach could not deter youthful curiosity. 

The lure of water adventuring matured into vacations to Makaha Beach for viewing the Surfing Championships and weekend sailing in western San Francisco Bay from a berth in Sausalito, and bare-boat cruising in the the U.S. and British Virgin Islands.  Free diving the reefs, challenging the surge of the surf and tides among the lava flows and cavorting with the dolphins around the Capt Cook Memorial in Hawaii’s Kialakekua Bay was part of the fun and part of the adventure challenge. 

However, the best was yet to come with a two year experience with the DAM swimming club in Davis, CA.  A local, the non Marvel comic character, Ironman Triathlete Dave Scott, was the founding coach of that group, now largest Masters Club in the U.S.A.  For two years on a 0545 and 1000 AM x 7 day x 52week schedule, I learned about the power of swimming, I had missed watching Johnny Weismuller on Tarzan B-W films, taking summer polio season swimming lessons at the Redmond Community Pool , or later doing after work laps in the Malin Community pool in hopes of making a University frosh swimming team.

What I had previously missed was the power of good technique, proper coaching, disciplined practice and group support.  Much of my group support came from charter Davis DAM members and workout regulars like Steve Watson, Harry Colvin, Susan Munn, and Lucille Richards.  They, and others, were youthful beyond their seventy plus years.  One result was a trip to St. George, Utah, the Huntsman Senior Games, and a swimming event metal.

Among our group, there was a running debate as to who or what had launched our shared love of the water.  Truth to be told, in the men’s dressing room, the usual winner was the ever youthful Esther Williams.  I can not speak to the conversations in the women’s dressing room.

However, I can guarantee that the DAM dressing room chatter will be focused on Olympic Swimming times and records come August, 2008 in Bejiing China

Legacy Journal:  the Professional Specialists v the Gentlemen PolyMaths: Having it All?

Section:

None

Summary:

Peak performance across the board is difficult whether one is dancing with the stars or training as a triathlete.  Gina Koleta of the nytimes continues to impress with her columns on exercise and competition. 

Main:

The same can be said of country naturalists, like Charles Darwin, working and writing from home at in Kent during the haydays of 19th century Victorian England.  The amateurs with all their enthusiasm for beatles and barnicles, reputations protected by a coterie of friends and family, and popular publishing success , were being replaced by the professional academics, societies, laboratories, and the latest in German instrumentation and organized science research

Meanwhile, the University of Rochester had a one day meeting at the City Convention Center for health care professionals treating women who are are pbese, diabetic or both. Guess what?

* American women are eating more, exercising less ,and gaining weight just like the Pina Indians did after they gave up their hunting and gathering more than a century ago.

* Fat woman are a risk for early death, growing big babies during pregnancy, having wound infections, and being difficult to manage during anesthesia and fetal evaluation exams like ultrasound.

* They may even break standard delivery room and operating room tables.  Whoa!

* Gastric bypass and banding surgery many have better, faster and more cost effective than medical therapy for morbid obesity in a properly selected population.

Legacy Journal: Friday Final: Frameworking the Future

Section:

Environment

Summary:

Enviromentalism: The State of the Movement.

* A usatoday blog view of the fluid flow of the movement.

The State of the Environment: CT Radiation and Xrays .

** A nytimes Op Ed page writer chimes in on “Problematic” CT scans and radiation exposure.

*** The inner Environmental Stressor:  Asthma and P.T.S.D.

Main:

“Two things in life are certain, death and taxes.” --- Grandpa, Mark Twain, and others.

:  Today, the local Rochester, NY paper has a lead article in its Business Section on a local investment in a corn to ethanol envirotech boomlet.  The graphic of the process was excellent. It clearly illustrated the steps in the conversion.  What was interesting was that more than twenty energy consuming processes were necessary to convert corn in the field to alcohol in the motor.  Transporting, grinding, heating, distilling, cooling, pumping, filtering, and storing are among the examples of steps that are highly energy dependent.  Meanwhile, the same paper reports that a local Congressman part of a delegation on a six day trip to Brazil for a first hand look at how that nation has “weaned itself from a dependency..... on foreign oil” using sugar cane to produce ethanol.  It there also a rum dependency problem in Brazil where the stuff is reported to be plentiful and cheap for natives and tourists.

:: Predictably, the OP Ed folks of nytimes used a slow day on Friday to fill white space with tepid pap on what is characterized as “possibly problematic"--- unnecessary diagnostic radiation exposure.  That is a strongly voiced opinion?
The good news is that the issue is not one of peace or prosperity, and no parallels were drown using the horrible Hiroshima metaphor.
Sadly, the science, technology and history of CAT scans is lacking. Not even EMI and the Beatles are given their due.  The good news is that the research behind the 1979 Nobel Prize for Medicine helped launch the progress that powers the fifth generation machines.  Dramatically increased processing speed has reduced motion artifact, optimized contrast enhancement, and decreased study completion time.  Radiation exposure is now measured in mrem units and slice imaging time in msecs.  That is very good news.

Legacy Journal: Triple Threat Thursday: Cloning, football and the Real West.

Section:

None

Summary:

“The great tragedy of Science - the slaying of a beautiful hypothesis by an ugly fact” - Thomas H. Huxley

* The Oregon National Primate Research Center in Beaverton is the site of monkey embryo cloning and stem cell harvesting

* The University of Oregon Ducks are hot, flying high and heading south to Arizona, the Rose Bowl and possibly, New Orleans. Atmospheric carbon dioxide saturation worries will have to wait their time.

* Las Vegas, Nevada is the site of yet another Democratic Presidential Primary debate.  The first was in the Silver State’s capital, Carson, City far to the north.

Main:

So, what are the issues here?

: In 1962, The Beaverton facility was the first of seven NIH funded Primate Centers to open. The news is exciting, but not unexpected.  Animal embryo cloning and stem cell harvesting remains labor intensive, low yield, but without any near term direct benefit in treating human disease.

:: The Duck men’s basketball team has announced a highly successful high school recruit class from Detroit, Chicago and Atlanta.  Mens Cross Country is going for an NCAA Championship this weekend.  A Heisman Trophy is waiting in the wings of the stage at the New York Downtown Athletic Club.

:::  In the buildup to the debate in Las Vegas, two NewsHour reporter have been profiling Nevada. Last night one of them visited Elko, Nevada in the northeastern quarter of the state. In the heart of the Great Basin, it is cattle, hay and coal country.  True, U.S. 80 is lined with with casinos and crap tables all the way from Reno to the Utah border. But water is the gold key to the long term sustainable health of the area. Water for wildlife, water for habitat, water for hay, and water for livestock. It is an olde Western story.  Water was also needed by the coal burning locomotive steam engines of the early Trans Continental Railroad and the real opening of the Far West to internal migration, trade and communication. Today, the wheeler dealers in Las Vegas want northern water to be used for electrical power generation on site and to fill a water pipeline to the arid but fast growing desert region 300 miles south.

Las Vegas hosts 38 million visitors a year.  Service workers are the backbone of the gaming and destination playground industry.  Elko ranch families came, settled and stayed.  Ely mineral miners are highly paid at nearly $70,000 per year and they produce $5 billion in gold and silver.  These are different folks, life styles and cultures than their cousins to the south.

Recently, personal visits to Las Vegas and the Ruby Mountains, hikes in Lamoille Canyon and a plunge in Liberty Lake out of Elko have left a Strong bias in favor of the latter.  So, that do Gate Keeper policy at the northern end of Lake Tahoe, the source of the Truckee Rivers, the Lahontan Cutthroat Trout fishing in Pyramid Lake, and Bing Crosby have to do with shaping a point of view that favors the traditional over the transitional, the few over the many, the stayers over the transient, the sustainable over hyper-growth, the proven over the dream, the sure over the high risk, the soul pleasing vistas of nature over the 24x 7 manufactured pleasures of the flesh pots?  If one does not get it, you have never camped out and sung around an evening fire in the company of friends and family.

BTW, Hello to Murray Gardner, MD of the Primate Center, Davis, CA, a fellow Sierra trekker, and a regular DAM lap swimmer.

Legacy Journal: An August Update from the Heartlands.

Section:

Travel

Summary:

During the month of August, this writer has been on a minimalist kind of luxury vacation. No phone, not camera, no note pad, no guide books and no driving.  The occasion was a relocation from Calilfornia to Rochester, NY.  The mode of transportation was a live-aboard Green Tortoise Bus crammed with an eclectic group of 35 free spririts representing seventeen countries and seven languages outbound from San Francisco.  Most of us had done the Bay Area tourist thing before departing for flight connects in New York City, Boston or Washington, D.C. for England, Germany, Italy, Spain, Australia or whereever.

Meanwhile is was close quarters in the bus on visits to the Rudy Mountains of Nevada, the Salmon River of Idaho, the great National Parks of Grand Teton and Yellowstone and the sweeping vistas of Wyoming, the five star destination spot at Cisco Hotsprings Resort in Paradise Valley on the Yellowstone River in the heart of cowboy heaven south of Livingston, Montana, the annual Biker rally in Sturgis and Lakota country in the Bad Lands of Rapid City, South Dakota, the farmlands and the upscale suburb of Egan near the Mall of the Americas in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the Interstate Park of LA Croix,Wisconsin, the center of Chicago near DePaul University, Lake Michigan, the Turnpikes of Indiana, Lake Erie and Cleveland in Ohio, Erie, Pennsylvania, and Niagara Falls in Seneca country in northwestern upstate New York.  Then it was then on to mid Lake Ontario, the Erie Canal, the lower Genesee Valley and the county’s first boom town, The City Rochester, NY.  For some explorers, it was 13 states in 13 days. Whew!

Main:

What an opportunity to take the pulse of the county.  The pulse of this youthful country is Strong, steady, vital and optimistic.

Impressions:

* Young non-American travellers see the country through different cultural prisms than do native travellers from the two coasts. Distance, the grandeur of big building, homes, rivers, lakes and mountains, open space, abundance, opportunity and prosperity impresses european youth.  Many of them are young students working summer jobs in places like the Pharmacy in Wall, South Dakota, and the Yellowstone NP restaurants run by Xanterra, Inc of Denver, CO.

* Corporate America is not despoiling the environment and raping the landscape in the Heartlands. For example, in Wyoming, along I-90, local coal on mile- long hopper trains were supplying electrical generation plants suppled with local water from steam and cooling.  Those plants were connected to the national power grid towers with pronghorn antelope, Angus cattle and quarter horses grazing in their shadow.  BTW, energy associated state revenues in Wyoming have led to one of the highest rates of per capita public education spending in the nation.  The results are eye-popping rates of graduating seniors enrolling in college.

* Along the high reaches of the Continental Divide, the watersheds of the Snake River to the Pacific and the Yellow Stone River to the Caribbean Oceans are well guarded and extensively monitored by multiple agencies and their professional staffs offield engineers and wildlife naturalists.

* Those literate folks who get most of their information about the country and the current state-of-affairs from their easy chairs and the media are missing an important and postive story.  They become like many obese folks who accept norms via the recently described mechanism of social networking of a socially acceptable body image recently described in the NEJM.  Independent observations by folks who put boots on the ground and do their field work tend to be optimistic and hopeful.

* Independent working people in the Heartlands do their jobs with the aid of machines, power equipment, trucks, vans, tractors, combines, tillers, service vehicles, school buses, snow clearing equipment, locomotives, airplanes, etc.  They and their families are impacted daily by the price of natural gas, gasoline and diesel fuel.  In addition, their electic bills reflect the mitigation legislation that targets coal fired electricity producers.  Further, basic building and construction materials like lumber, cement, rebar and asphalt are impacted by rising energy prices. 

* Yes, there is roadside evidence of wind farming and corn ethanol fired turbines along the Heartland gridway.  But, but eco-friendly can extract a price.  USA Today, this weekend reports the death of a worker in at a Wasco CO. Oregon wind farm site from a high speed windmill blade malfunction.

* Reports are that the prices for prime corn land have tripled over past five years. Agricultural commodities prices for meat, milk, eggs and corn meal have impacted the supermarket and restaurant checkout bill.

* Today in the online NYtimes, a regular columnist, David Brooks, sums it up well.  Weary easterners tend to vacation at the beach. The vigorous and vital among us head for the high mountains.  At altitude, in places like the the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, the Grand Tetons, the Sierra, MT Shasta, the Cascades of Oregon and Washington, and Montana’s Glacier, NP, the air is clear, the climb a challenge, and the perspective refreshing and uplifting. Maybe that is why the the Directors, Governors and guests of the Federal Reserve System at their annual prelabor day meeting chose to head west to places like the Rerort Lodge in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.  While the air is bracing, an envionmental group and USA Today have labelled the Cowboys the worst per capita polluters on the planet.  Meanwhile, construction jobs and fossil fuel fired electrical plants continue to boom in the Basin region as south California reports its annual late summer brownouts.

* Meanwhile, may the Americans who hew the wood and draw the water be included in policy debates that propose to adopt the EU model of energy taxation and the Chinese model of transportation.

* BTW, one notes that Rochesterian homeowners are plentiful, proud, and are frequent flag flyers, even when it is not Memorial or Labor Weekend.

* Local Labor weekend Sunday services included a visiting member of the United Universalist Service Committee based in Washington, D.C.  The theme was the Jewish Holocaust, the Just Nations award in Israel, and the tribal conflict in the Darfur Region of the Sudan as widely covered by Nicholas Kristoff of the nytimes.  None in the audience appeared to aware of of their former senior Senior’s book, Pandaemonium: Ethnicity in International Politics by Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Oxford University Press, 1993.  He and his coauthor described the rising tide of regional tribal conflicts that have come to define the destatification of current geopolitics.

Legacy Journal: Bend Oregon in July: Cascade Cycle Classic

Section:

Parks & Recreation

Summary:

Bend, Deschutes County Oregon in MT. Bachelor and Sun River country has become a hot training area for cyclists.  It is also the site for the annual Bend Memorial Clinic Cascade Cycle Classic beginning 15 July.  We also note that Bend hit the national news with a short helium balloon flight by a novice local.  And, there has also been the recent “Executive Meeting” of EE in Bend. A rival to the Allen meeting in that other playground, Sun Valley, Idaho, it is not.


Main:



Here there is real prize money on the line unlike the Davis Bike Club 4th of July Downtown sprint race.  Bend locals like Steve Larson, formerly of Davis and the WheelWorks Bike Shop, and Levi Leipheimer of Santa Rosa, CA may be in the pack.





Others hit the whitewater in rubber rafts.





In addition:

* Dr. Jerry Lear & Julie, uncle and aunt to the Fisk kids, are retired from the Bend Clinic, Senior Windsurfing competition and the Bend public school system. They are now into Pilates, bird watching, and a host of Bend centered volunteer activities.

* Jon. Erika and the Little kids recently visited Deschutes county on their way east via the John Day Valley to Idaho, Yellow Stone N.P. and points east.

* Damon Fisk and Rebecca Welch are looking for the perfect September 7th wedding site.  Hum, what about the Deschutes River and a honeymoon fly fishing on the Melolius River out of the Black Butte Resort?  Maybe Carmel will just have to do after all.

* Come to think of it, the Lears and Fisks have more than a few roots in Central Oregon including:  a former head of the county Agricultural Extension Service, an Ag service business in Redmond, leaning to ski at Bachelor, summer college jobs delivering furniture from Kaufman’s in Eugene, working on the railroad bed crossing blistering hot volcanic lava flows near Lapine, building custom homes at Black Butte, hiking the Jefferson Wilderness, fishing East, Diamond, and Billy Chinook lakes, the Wickiup Reservoir, climbing Smith Rocks on the Crooked River, deer hunting in the Paulina region, and horse riding out of the Redmond Fairgrounds.  The Pine Tavern, the Pilot Butte Inn and Mirror Pond in Bend were among the local haunts. Sun River, Mount Bachelor, and Inn of the Seventh Mountain are among the many destination spots in the area.

Maybe it is time to pay a personal visit to the Bend home of the Expression Engine mister, Rick Ellis.  It turns out that the most recent edition of Outside Magazine rates Bend and environs among the best places on the planet to live, work, and especially, play.  Oregonians have known that for many decades.
