fretwaterlines: The Grand Colorado
http://fretwaterlines.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-grand-colorado.html
Tuesday, August 4, 2015. It used to be that the Colorado River above its confluence with the Green River in Canyonlands was called the Grand River. Hence the names Grand Lake, Grand Mesa, Grand Junction, Grand Valley, and so forth. But the state of Colorado changed the river's name so that the Colorado River would have its headwaters in Colorado. Kind of petty. For the first day or two we got to wave to the freight trains and moon Amtrak. Lots of scenic wanders and wacky critters. Tres amigos: RJ, Andy, ...
fretwaterlines: March 2014
http://fretwaterlines.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 9, 2014. Machine screws and finish washers on the inside (orange arrows) and sex nuts on the outside (green arrows). Here are currently available finish washers in silicon bronze and brass. So the solution, I decided, was to make my own. And why make them round when I could have more fun? Step one was to carve a little star out of wood, with a countersunk hole in the middle, and glue a wee nail into it. Step two was to make eleven more. There A stick with twelve stars. Check out the cool No...
fretwaterlines: November 2014
http://fretwaterlines.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 29, 2014. Zsa Zsa and Eva- a double dory flash build in Kiwiland. Unfortunately Andy got severely delayed by visa issues and I had to go it alone for the first week or so. So the pressure was on. I set up our shop in a sheep shed high on a windy hilltop in the remote community of Pukeokahu, where our employer, Brian Megaw, had secured us space for the month. The front door was pretty classy:. It came with our mantra stuck to the wall:. The first week or so was a test in moral strength-...
fretwaterlines: May 2014
http://fretwaterlines.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 10, 2014. Back on the water. As usual, my plans for a leisurely finish to the season went up in smoke. Had to lay in another 55-gallon drum of midnight oil. The non-skid went on the decks, followed by one more coat of paint. The roar of the furnace and the smell of burning oil clay. Oh yeah. Even the foundry got worked up. I guess I was running too hot a flame, and the crucible melted about an inch down into the firebrick floor. Jeez. At forty-two years old. Links to this post. AzRA Dories ...
fretwaterlines: Fundamentalists
http://fretwaterlines.blogspot.com/2015/08/fundamentalists.html
Saturday, August 1, 2015. Ahh, home at last. It seems like WoodenBoat School has become a second home to me. Man, I love it here. The boats and jigs for the Fundamentals of Boatbuilding class are already set up in the west bay awaiting our two week boat party. Not so fast. Before we build anything, we are going to draw it out with pencils. The fine and feared art of lofting occupies much of the first few days. Finally a fun and tactile reward: stem-bending ribs into a hull and riveting them fast. Until t...

The Orbital: TED and Economic Inequality
http://www.ryanlouiscooper.com/2012/05/ted-and-economic-inequality.html
May 17, 2012. TED and Economic Inequality. The above TED talk, by Richard Wilkinson, is from October 2011, and it's all about economic inequality. There's quite a lot of buzz today about another talk on economic inequality which was recorded, then quashed. By TED officials. You can check out the full transcript here. Listen to his tone, though:. The extraordinary differential between a 15% tax rate on capital gains, dividends, and carried interest for capitalists, and the 35% top marginal rate on work fo...
The Orbital: Where Can Rockstar Go After GTA V? Reconstruction
http://www.ryanlouiscooper.com/2014/10/where-can-rockstar-go-after-gta-v.html
Oct 18, 2014. Where Can Rockstar Go After GTA V? Here's something astonishing: Grand Theft Auto V. Has sold more than 34 million copies. That amounts to something like $2 billion in revenue. For a point of contrast, that's a third again as much as The Avengers. Took in.) Late as usual, I played through it a couple weeks ago. Was it any good? My standard these days for a good game is one that holds my attention enough that I can finish the damn thing, so I basically agree with Carolyn Petit. Mainstream cu...
The Orbital: Books

This is a semi-complete list of books I've read, both to keep track for myself and a handy list for people looking for something good to pick up. Each title is followed by a rough, entirely subjective review out of four stars. The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money. By John Maynard Keynes. * *. By Eric Rauchway. * *. To Hell and Back. By Ian Kershaw. * 1/2. By PG Wodehouse. * 1/2. By PG Wodehouse. * *. The War that Forged a Nation. By James McPherson. * *. By Susanna Clarke. * * 1/2. By Ch...
The Orbital: Torture Follow-up
http://www.ryanlouiscooper.com/2014/12/torture-follow-up.html
Dec 27, 2014. That torture does not work for intelligence gathering, basically just recapitulating a large section from Darius Rejali's excellent book Torture and Democracy. I think it gets the point across fairly well, but reading it again I think I could have done a better job framing the argument. The argument isn't that torture never results in a prisoner divulging true information — that clearly does happen on occasion. Rather, the argument is that torture is worse. Posted by Ryan Cooper. Ive been m...
The Orbital: Why is HIV/AIDS so bad in Southern Africa?
http://www.ryanlouiscooper.com/2010/04/why-is-hiv-so-bad-in-southern-africa.html
Apr 29, 2010. Why is HIV/AIDS so bad in Southern Africa? AIDS is bad throughout sub-Saharan Africa, but it's much worse in Southern Africa, particularly in Botswana, South Africa, and Swaziland. I've been trying to figure out why this is. It's a challenging question. I've been doing a bit of research and it seems there isn't a single reason (or set of reasons) that everyone agrees upon. Dr. Kevin De Cock (no, really) says there's a variety of reasons. But there's no conclusive evidence:. The impact of HI...
The Orbital: Towards Redneck Socialism
http://www.ryanlouiscooper.com/2014/05/towards-redneck-socialism.html
May 3, 2014. Mike Konczal put it fairly well. 8220;leftists continue to seem lost, unable to turn the middle of the plate pitch of a global financial crisis to their advantage.”. I think this is due, in part, to what has become the default mode of leftist cultural operation. Leftists (by which I mean, broadly speaking, people to the left of mainstream liberals) have scored some tremendous victories by shaming prejudice: the fact that there is now gay marriage in Utah. Ought to be proof enough of that.

The Orbital: Winter Soldier and Fascism in Modern Superhero Movies
http://www.ryanlouiscooper.com/2014/11/winter-soldier-and-fascism-in-modern.html
Nov 2, 2014. Winter Soldier and Fascism in Modern Superhero Movies. This is a pretty devastating indictment:. The implicit support of Bush-era security policy is, to my mind, the biggest political problem with modern superhero treatments. As Olson says, the logical conclusion behind most of these movies is that the rule of law and democratic oversight are luxuries we cannot afford if terrorist attacks get bad enough. Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier. Hydra has infested both these operations, and pla...
The Orbital: Inflation and the Class War
http://www.ryanlouiscooper.com/2014/09/inflation-and-class-war.html
Sep 8, 2014. Inflation and the Class War. For ordinary people. And perhaps least appreciated, they have constantly demanded hard money policy. So over the last several years, one question has been persistently nagging one percenter analysts: is this behavior stupid or evil? That is to say, are the rich just slickered by very poor economic advice (like that dispensed by Santelli, who would have lost you a ton of money. But let's step back a bit. Folks like like Paul Krugman. Get richer in aggregate, there...

Fret Wars
Thursday, 31 March 2016. For the past few days I've been working on a few jazz chord progressions. I'm not initially doing anything too deep, just trying to get some less familiar moves under my fingers so they'll feel natural, while I also get my ears accustomed to their sound. Because the ii, V progression. Is core to a lot of jazz, I've been working through ideas around that. The first one is just a simple key change with parallel movement, there and back. So it goes:. Bm7, E7 Am7, D7 :. Bm7, E7 AΔ7, ...

True stories from 16 years of rangerin' and ramblin'. February 3, 2017. 2 months in Baja. Lisa and I made it to Los Barriles a couple days ago. About 1400 miles in Mexico so far.

Just a few pics from the trip south for now. Ill add more of a narrative soon. . Links to this post. November 1, 2016. Maze Overlook Campsite #1. Links...
fretwaterlines
Monday, March 19, 2018. This time around we pre-glassed all the interior walls, which was way easier than doing it after we'd built the boxes. It also gave us way smoother glass work. Then we glassed the interior corners and took the boxes outdoors to round off the outside corners. Links to this post. Monday, March 12, 2018. Justin carved patterns for an array of saguaro boathooks. Dual furnaces, blasting through the propane, burning our fair share. About 500 pounds in four days. Kelly planing them down.
