I forever come away from a venue with a fraction of the shots I should have gotten but here is a backup shot of the Littleton Farm corral that I like, taken after I moved up to the gate but kept my former perspective. I kind of liked centering the shed over the crossbuck. I suppose that gates were closed in old style corral fences like this by simply sliding a couple of logs across the opening. Effective if not sophisticated. Inside the Littleton museum are a wealth of agricultural exhibits such as this corral and outbuildings. Once past the museum building, we made a beeline for the 1860 section of the farm and were delighted by truly authentic early structures. I marveled at the old fence and I decided that it looks to be fashioned more to keep people out than animals in. Eddie was in a rush to get to Doudy before sunup, the bike track by 10:00 and the Littleton Farm Museum after that. The museum was a place that I never heard about before found it to be an excellent experience. We kept expecting good skies but only those shots aimed properly could take advantage of any opening in the clouds. The rest were in flat light. This was major work to dig out this angle. Lighting is everything and needed to pop up pictures. I admired the daisy sculpture outside but marveled at the farm exhibits.
This museum is free and the one place you must take the kiddies. Museum personnel was concerned about Eddie's camera and didn't want us shooting indoor or commercial shots. They would only be so lucky if they had Eddie to do their shooting for them! Oh well rentless onward. This is a treasure trove of old agricultural exhibits and far better than others I've encountered. Plenty to keep the young occupied as we discovered them bouncing from exhibit to exhibit. This is outside, before we got back into the museum!
I waited and shot and waited for the skies to start clearing; they didn't. I know what you are thinking; enough skies already! All kinds of skies are great though. This one is barely worth it.

Bolingbroke Castle is now a fraction of its former glory but - in its day - it was a handsome and important building. As the birthplace of Henry of Bolingbroke, later King Henry IV, it could be argued that Bolingbroke was the cradle of the so-called 'Wars of the Roses' as it was Henry who overthrew the unpopular Richard II - but his act of rebellion also established a precedent. Two generations later the House of York overthrew his equally unpopular grandson, Henry VI.
www.flickr.com/photos/barryslemmings/albums/7215768230649... to see the full set.
The area had been fortified by the Saxons in the 6th or 7th century AD but in the 12th century the Normans built a motte and bailey castle on a nearby hill. The present castle was founded by Ranulf, Earl of Chester in 1220 shortly after he returned from the Fifth Crusade. Its imposing round towers were fashionable and he may have been inspired by castles he saw on his travels. He also chose to build without a keep although the huge gatehouse may have served a double function of both keep and gate.
The site is an irregular hexagon with round towers at the salient points and a handsome twin-towered gateway facing the present village. The moat to the main site was 90-100 feet wide with the water lapping at the base of the walls when built. Today, so much material has fallen into the moat that there is now a wide berm around the base of the exterior wall where visitors can walk. When built it was lime-washed in white and traces of this remain on some of the walls today.
Ranulf had died in 1232 without a male heir, and his titles, lands and castles passed to his sisters. Following the death of the first Duke of Lancaster in 1361 Bolingbroke passed through marriage into the ownership of John of Gaunt. His wife Blanche, daughter of Henry of Grosmont, was born at the Castle in 1345. John and Blanche's son, Henry was also born at Bolingbroke Castle in 1367 and became known as "Henry of Bolingbroke" before he took the throne in 1399.
In addition to this main castle there is a ditched outer enclosure (see aerial photo) which may have served an agricultural purpose. Within this there is a mysterious earthwork of roughly 'playing card' shape with its long side facing towards the castle. This earthwork has not been positively identified but the ditch is still deep enough to be flooded today and was clearly defensive. It is probably a siege earthwork from 1643 (its in the right position and at the right range for muskets and cannon) but the enclosure also strongly resembles the king's 'pleasaunce' which Henry IV's son, Henry V, constructed at Kenilworth Castle during his reign. At Kenilworth this functioned as a secure pleasure palace to entertain friends, and the ladies, at the far end of the huge lake and moat. Bolingbroke's may have been an earlier essay in the craft given that Henry of Bolingbroke was under constant threat when he got into dispute with Richard II. Henry snr may have needed somewhere outside the smells and claustrophobia of the castle's main walls where he could kick back and enjoy himself in relative security. The outer ditched area around would then lend itself to riding and hawking. Think of it as a 'man cave' in the garden perhaps? Of is it just a Parliamentarian siege work?
The local building material was poor in quality and by the 16th century, the castle had fallen into disrepair. Some work was carried out during the Tudors. In 1636 a survey found that all of the towers were - effectively - beyond repair.
A bad castle is better than no castle, so at the start of the English Civil War Bolingbroke was garrisoned by the Royalists. In 1643 it was damaged in a siege and the nearby Battle of Winceby. The following year, the castle was recaptured from Parliament but was lost again later. In 1652 the castle was 'slighted' (deliberately damaged) to prevent any further use. The towers and walls were torn down and dumped into the moat. The last major tower fragment collapsed in 1815.
Of course none of this collapse would have been helped by locals robbing the stone for their own buildings. Large parts of the castle are probably in the village and in surrounding farms and villages!

X axis is Seasonal Fraction, based on 1 Jan = 0
Y axis is m^3 NG burned / day
Should probably be plotted with or controlled against heating degree days from
www.climate.weatheroffice.ec.gc.ca/climateData/dailydata_...
In our home natural gas is used for space heating (via my hydronic boiler and hot water rads) and domestic hot water in a traditional (rented) water heater. And of course, a damned sexy NG meter!
According to Direct Energy Ontario houses typically use 3000 m^3 per year, or 8.2 m^3/day, while the OEB says 2,600 cubic metres/year or 7.1 m^3/day.
If 10^6 BTU is 293.07107 kWh
and
NG has ~ 33500 BTU in a cubic meter ..
forum.onlineconversion.com/showthread.php?t=12319
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_gas
See 10.83 to 11.3 kWh [thermal] per cubic meter" sources.
3000 m^3 * 11.3 kWh gives almost 34,000 kWh (heat) / year for an average home in ON -- that's 92.9 kWh/day or almost 3900 W sustained 24/7.
2600 m^3 * 10.8 kWh gives slightly over 28,000 kWh (heat) / year for an average home in ON -- that's 77 kWh/day or about 3200 W sustained 24/7.
Of course, the daily average hides a big seasonal variation.
The price seems to be about $0.32 / m^3 all in.
Grrr, I hate it when they estimate my bill. How am I supposed to work with that?

Local transportation is predominantly by road, with a small fraction (depending on the city) by trains. Most Indian cities are connected to surrounding towns by buses or trains. The vast national rail network also enables farmers to transport their farm and agriculture produce to larger towns, where they get better prices.
The roads in most cities are poorly maintained and full of potholes, while in villages they are frequently non-existent. Traffic generally moves slowly and erratically, and traffic jams and accidents are very common. A Reader's Digest study of traffic congestion in Asian cities ranked several Indian cities within the Top Ten for worst traffic.
Buses are very cheap in most cities but also very crowded and have unpredictable timings, frequently necessitating long waits. In the big cities and towns of India, buses are the major mode of transport.

A fraction to the left or the right and the scene would have been missed. This was taken in the backstreets of Chippendale. It reminds me of those long hours I used to study maths and physics under the glow of a table lamp.

I've had enough scheming and messing with jerks. My car is parked outside, I'm afraid it doesn't work. I'm looking for a partner, someone who gets things fixed. Ask yourself this question: Do you want to be rich?
Too many shadows, whispering voices. Faces on posters, too many choices. If, when, why, what? How much have you got? Have you got it, do you get it, if so, how often? And which do you choose, a hard or soft option? (How much do you need?)

In this page we are going to discuss about Simplifying fractions. Fraction is a two-part number representation which has numerator part at top and denominator part at bottom. By simplifying the numerator and denominator terms of fraction as possible, we can get a simplified form of fraction. A fraction may be proper or improper fraction. Example: 4/8 is simplified as 1/2.

Every single bookstore. There it was. Stacked on the display table (not the shelves, no no. The table). Hot pink dots on the cover joined the phrase "Shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2008". It was irresistible to me, a book I felt deeply I should read as a reviewer, but also as a lover of books. This was one I couldn't miss. When I found A FRACTION OF THE WHOLE at ABC The Hague, well. In the shopping bag it went.
Still, it took me a while to actually read it (earlier this year), possibly because I read the Man Booker winner (Aravind Adiga's THE WHITE TIGER) and found myself to be rather underwhelmed. How would I feel about a nominee if the winner didn't do it for me?
The answer? I feel a little silly. The Man Booker is an important literary prize, but winning it says nothing about the quality of the other shortlisted books (or longlisted books - or books that didn't even make the cut).
I quickly realized when I started reading A FRACTION OF THE WHOLE that I liked this book so much more than the winning book.
Martin Dean's entire life has revolved around one important thing: his brother Terry's actions. A notorious criminal, Terry's been on a murdering spree - killing athletes who took pay-offs, for one - until his own death, which made him an even bigger legend. Ever since, Marty's been focused on being A Somebody Too, but that's not an easy feat when you're a cynical misanthrope who analyzes and philosophizes everything to death. Marty's son Jasper looks on in embarrassment, wanting nothing more than to be free from his father's overbearing opinions on life, but unable to because his dad is all Jasper's got. It's only when Marty dies that Jasper can actually look upon their lives together and their crazy adventures (in Paris, Thailand and their homeland, Australia) in a different, more independent light, allowing himself to discover who he is with, and without his dad.
A FRACTION OF THE WHOLE is Toltz's debut, and an impressive one: the fractions that make the book a whole are so, so strong.
Toltz is a fantastic storyteller; his work is highly imaginative without going inexcusably overboard. If you think Steve Toltz is insane, try reading a book by Christopher Moore - whom I adore, but yeah, he's insane. It's why I buy his books. They're delightful.
Steve Toltz has tons of ideas and he does go everywhere with his story - some of them are outrageous, especially in the end - but he goes everywhere with self-confidence, a goal. He's forgiven because he remains very much in control, careful not to let the crazy overshadow the heart of the tale. And there's plenty of heart.
FRACTION is absolutely lough out loud funny. This started immediately; I'd already laughed a gazillion times by the time I reached page 30. There was something witty on every page - at least, I felt it was witty. His humor seems to come natural to him; it doesn't feel forced, the jokes aren't done before. It's fresh, it's daring, it's cynical - but it never puts down serious issues which do occur in the book.
An important theme is suicide; one of the most moving moments in the novel is when Jasper's classmate commits suicide, and the effect it has on his father, a teacher none of the kids could stand. It's a moment I won't forget; FRACTION has a lot of these memorable moments.
It's moments like these which brings me to the strongest aspect of FRACTION, and that is its characters. FRACTION does have a plot line but is clearly a character-driven book. Moments in their lives define Toltz's characters, as do relationships with each other. It's about Jasper's coming of age, absolutely. But even more, FRACTION explores the relationship between father and son (who share the position of narrator), and the bond between two (competitive, and very different) brothers. This is what you need to realize when you read this book. The heart of the book lies between two brothers, and the son of one. Toltz writes about these men with feeling, with soul... and with his brains.
Toltz is an opinionated man - a man who lets his thoughts (existential, philosophical) roam free. The thing that makes it work, is that he's able to get it all across to his readers without making them feel stupid - which a lot of other authors simply fail at. (I'll never forget putting down a revered book by Dutch author Harry Mulisch, in which existentialism is discussed at length between characters. I understood what he was talking about, but it all sounded like pretentious drivel and it put me off entirely.)
It's good that you're thinking about life and death, authors, and that you have questions and are seeking answers, but if you plan on dumping them on your readers (who expect a book about a dysfunctional father/son relationship, not necessarily a work containing a lot of philosophy), at least make it relatable, understandable, transferable. Toltz gets that and I appreciated this.
Furthermore, the reader doesn't have to agree with everything to see the literary value in Toltz's writing. His thoughts are so cleverly worded, that they make for enjoyable reading, so much that it didn't bother me that (my edition of) the book was 700+ pages long. I enjoyed every single word on every single page.
I'm such a huge fan of this author. Please please please, write another book, Steve Toltz. I'll be one of the first to read it. I have complete faith in this man's ability to write a brilliant sophomore novel.
It's not a big literary prize (it's not even real but shh, not the point), but it's a heartfelt one: the Karin Elizabeth Prize 2008, it's yours, Steve Toltz.
