Ethanol, Corn Prices, Government Payments, and the REAL Reason Meat Groups Oppose the RFS
One of the questions posed by the House Energy & Commerce Committee asked whether ethanol and the RFS have impacted corn prices. Our response? Yes, of course ethanol expansion has added value to corn prices—that was the point!

USDA follow up: Putting today's report in context
As expected, this morning's supply-demand estimates from USDA showed a big reduction in the size of the 2012 corn crop and average yield. Today's report estimates average yield at 123.4 bushels per acre (bpa), down nearly 23 bpa from USDA's July estimate and the lowest yield since 1995.
Drought, Ethanol and the RFS: Context is key
Tomorrow morning's USDA World Agriculture Supply-Demand Estimates (WASDE) report may very well be the most highly anticipated report in the agency's long and storied history. It will offer USDA's first survey-based estimates of the 2012 corn crop and average corn yields; and the universal expectation is that the persisting hot, dry weather in the Corn Belt this summer has substantially reduced the size of the crop.
The 2012 Corn Crop and the Outlook for Ethanol
Extreme hot and dry weather across much of the Midwest this summer has caused government and private analysts to significantly reduce their projections of the size of the 2012 corn crop. This white paper briefly examines the potential impacts on the RFS and outlook for the ethanol industry.

Ethanol growth not leading to cropland expansion, new USDA report shows
An in-depth analysis of U.S. land use patterns released today by the U.S. Department of Agriculture shows total cropland decreased by 34 million acres from 2002 to 2007, the lowest level since USDA began collecting this data 1945. The RFA said the new report is one more addition to the mounting body of evidence that proves increased ethanol production has not resulted in expansion of total U.S. cropland or a decline in grassland and forest.

RFA to President Obama: Take pride in U.S. ethanol industry
In a letter sent to President Obama today, the Renewable Fuels Association urged the President to take pride in the U.S. ethanol industry, as they detailed the dynamic state of the industry. The letter was prompted by remarks the President made during his Twitter town hall event earlier this week, in which the President seemed to question the commitment of ethanol producers and advocates to innovation.

Senate Ethanol Debate: Peeling Away the Onion
For ethanol interests, the United States Senate was a cauldron of confusion this week. As is often the case in Washington, things are not as they appear. This week's ethanol debate had little to do with ethanol and even less to do with true energy policy. It was old fashioned political theater.

Ethanol Export Boom Continues; USDA Trims Corn Acre Estimate
Today was a busy day for ethanol and grain market data junkies. First, USDA released its June supply-demand estimates, which showed a downward revision to 2011 planted and harvested corn acres. Second, government data on April exports of ethanol and distillers grains was released, showing another record month of ethanol exports and huge shipments to Brazil.

Talking Turkey on Ethanol, Distillers Grains
Distillers grains have become an important component of the livestock feed market. Still, some in the poultry industry would rather malign this nutrient-rich feed product in the hopes of returning to a day when they could buy corn from farmers below the cost of production. As the RFA pointed out, distillers grains are not going anywhere and their benefit in the livestock feed market cannot be dismissed.

Food for Thought on a Friday
All Americans know it - the price of everything is up today. Many Americans recognize that the price of oil and the price of gasoline dictate the price of everything we buy. But some are seeking to mislead Americans by blaming domestic ethanol production.

March Ethanol Exports Set Another Record; USDA Predicts Record Corn Crop
Yesterday, USDA's first estimate of 2011 corn supply and demand; and March ethanol export data was released. The USDA released it's first estimate of the 2011 corn crop, as well as 2011/12 demand. USDA is predicting 92.2 million acres of corn to be planted, 85.1 million harvested acres, and an average yield of 158.7 bushels per acre. This would produce a total crop of 13.5 billion bushels, an all-time record.

RFA Analysis of USDA WASDE Report
This morning, the USDA release their April WASDE report, which will likely ease some of the tension in the world corn market, as the report showed that the corn supply and carry-out are generally expected to be larger than most market participants were expecting. The following is the RFA's analysis of the report.

Who Gets Your Food Dollar?
Food prices around the globe are rising and as a result, many are quickly searching for a scapegoat. Far too many are still recycling half-truths and misconceptions about the role of rising corn prices in food price escalation and demand for corn created by America's ethanol industry. In a new look at the distribution of each dollar spent on food in the U.S., the U.S. Department of Agriculture has found just 11.6 cents of each dollar spent makes its way back to the farm. In other words, the raw ingredients in retail food items account for just 12 cents of every consumer dollar spent, while energy costs, labor, transportation, packaging, and other supply chain costs account for the other 88 cents.

$100 Oil and Congress Asks for Seconds
As turmoil and violence rattle the Middle East and Northern Africa, the fragile American and worldwide economic recovery is being put into jeopardy as oil prices continue their climb over $100. Meanwhile, the U.S. Congress is voting on provisions that would limit use of the only widely available alternative to imported oil…Ethanol.

What USDA WASDE Report Really Means for Ethanol, Corn
The USDA has released its February estimates of U.S. and global grain supplies. Some revisions, all of which were expected, slightly reduce USDA's estimates of leftover corn at the end of the marketing year. Let the wild claims and "alarm bells" ring from ethanol's detractors begin.

Egypt, Ethanol and Armchair Punditry – Part 1
As millions of Egyptians engage in a life and death struggle for the future of their country, pundits in the Western media are taking the opportunity to blame all of their favorite scapegoats for the insecurity. American ethanol production is not escaping their wrath. As has always been the case, the "facts" used by these pundits just don't match the world reality.

Ethanol, Corn Supply, and Those Who Cry Wolf
The final USDA report on the size of the 2010 corn crop and subsequent supply is out. Not surprisingly, USDA has adjusted its final estimates to reflect increased ethanol demand, the importance of distillers grains and other feed coproducts, and the difficult growing season American farmers endured. Right on cue, prolific End of Days prognosticators like Lester Brown of the Earth Policy Institute are pointing the finger of blame at ethanol for lower than expected corn supplies. But, as is always the case, there are far more factors that must be considered.

Secretary Vilsack Addresses Administration Biofuel Policy
Following this morning's remarks by Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack regarding Obama Administration biofuel policy, Renewable Fuels Association President and CEO Bob Dinneen issued the following statement: "The Obama Administration has shown strong leadership on the issue of domestic biofuels, putting forward a vision that recognizes the importance of the existing industry and the potential of new technologies. Domestic ethanol production is one of the few bright spots in a gloomy economic forecast, providing tens of thousands of jobs in hundreds of rural communities all across the country. By expanding the scope of American ethanol production to include new feedstocks from grasses to wood waste to algae, the industry can extend the benefits seen in rural America to every corner of the country".....

Siri isn't just another voice control system, it remembers context and it can understand relationships. That means, for example, you can tell Siri to call your wife's iPhone, and Siri will know who that is and which phone number to dial. Not only that, Siri can send iMessages or SMS, and even email any of your friends, family, or co-workers. No matter how you like to communicate, Siri makes it incredibly easy to stay in touch.
Siri will need to either learn who your wife, best friend, boss, or other relationships are before it can associate them with the proper contact. You can edit the Contact to enter that information, but what fun is that? The easier, faster way is simply to tell Siri what your relationships are.
This works great for unique relationships but for relatives that have simliar titles, it can be a problem. If you have two daughters for instance, you'll need to assign them a differently for Siri to differentiate between them. You can, of course, use things like "oldest daughter" or "youngest daughter".
When Siri does get confused by multiple relationships, it is possible to manually add in the proper data in your Contact card so that Siri can make use of it.
Siri will now remember that relationship and saying things like "Call my brother" will now cause Siri to call the contact connected tp that relationship.
Any relationships you add to your Contact card are now part of that card which means that if you email or message someone your contact card, all of your relationships will be part of that information. You may want to create a second, relationship-free Contact card to share with others.
Siri can quickly find you the Contact information for anyone on your iPhone -- far more quickly than tapping, scrolling, and visually picking them out typically allows.
Siri can place calls to someone by name, or simply by relationship, and to any phone number you have. It works especially well when driving.
Siri can quickly and conveniently compose SMS and iMessages either to a single or multiple recipients. Just like calls, it's especially useful when driving.
If you're not happy with the message, instead of confirming it, say "change it" to re-dictate it, or say "cancel" to abandon it.
Messaging with Siri is not limited to just sending text messages; Siri can also send emails, both to individuals and to multiple recipients.
If you're not happy with the email, instead of confirming it, say "change subject", "add", or "change message". You can also tell Siri to "cancel" to abandon the email completely.
If you still need help with setting up or using Siri with your iPhone Contacts, or any other Siri feature, head on over to our Siri Forum and ask away!
Unable to add relationships via Siri I guess because my contacts are synced via exchange gmail. Any solutions to this?
I hope that is a fake birthdate...
Well done Rene. I'm always looking for things that Siri will do. This was helpful. I like the Blackberry slam as well. Very funny.
OK. I added my daughter manually, and for some reason siri saved it as my "Child", not my daughter. I added my son, again manually, and he is not in there at all. If i say call my son, it calls my "child". I removed the daughter from my daughter and just left my son. i still can't call him by saying call my son. It calls my child, which for some reason is STILL MY DAUGHTER. Real smooth siri.
The same thing is happening with me... I was trying to set my moms phone up for her. Somehow I got it to add two children and it will ask which one it wants her to call. They need to fix it
Allyson wrote a nice quick reference here. Unfortunately Apple (tell me if I'm wrong) provides no way to send email and attach a PDF document from anywhere including iCloud or Dropbox.

Google Apps Improved Login (GAIL) provides Google Apps administrators with two oft-requested features: the ability to customize the login page and the ability to log in as their users. GAIL is designed to run on Google's App Engine so that administrators do not need to have their own Web server. GAIL works by making use of the SAML Single Sign-On (SSO) Service for Google Apps. Premier and Education Editions of Google Apps are supported. Standard Edition is not.
Google Apps Manager (GAM) is a command line tool that allows Administrators to control their Google Apps domain and accounts. With GAM you can create users, turn on/off services for users like POP and Forwarding and much more. It requires Google Apps Education or Premier Edition. Standard Edition is not supported.

treap.py is a treap implementation for Python. A treap is a hybrid of a binary tree and a binary heap that is self-balancing and is O(nlog2(n)) for most operations, including deleting a value, inserting a value, finding the least value, and finding the greatest value. This particular treap implementation looks like a dictionary to the caller, but it also supports getting an ordered list (forward or reverse) in O(n) time. The code is available as pure Python (should run on about any Python implementation supporting generators, but was tested on CPython 2.6) or as part Python and part Cython for performance. The version with Cython should run on CPython or Unladen Swallow, but was only tested on CPython 2.6.
Conary is a distributed software management system for Linux distributions. It replaces traditional package management solutions (such as RPM and dpkg) with one designed to enable loose collaboration across the Internet. It enables sets of distributed and loosely connected repositories to define the components which are installed on a Linux system. Rather than having a full distribution come from a single vendor, it allows administrators and developers to branch a distribution, keeping the pieces which fit their environment while grabbing components from other repositories across the Internet.

Anthony was AWESOME!!!! Our office loves working with him.
We gave these away at a Red Cross event we had and everyone loved them! Good quality and print came out great.
The overall customer service was great. Paula did an excellent job to help me to get the product to me before my event date especially when we placed the order so late in the week. I appreciated it very much. My co-worker used another vendor and her product was received the day before of the event but there was so many issues with that vendor. I told her about my experience with Branders and she may think about using them instead of the other vendor.
We've used this item before and it's a hit with our patients.
The product fit our needs very well.
A great way to start a session with a nervous client. When I told her she could keep it her face lit up and she said "cool" I told her my number was on it if she needed to get in touch later.
It has caught several different individuals attention. It is going to be our new slogan for awhile!
It was great with our white logo.
Great product, a little "harder"to squeeze than similar products. Pay attention to imprint size when you get your proof, we had to recast our logo to be legible. VERY happy with the result.

Lots of talk on Victory/Coordinator Monday about Ryan Tannehill.
Specifically, what are the areas of improvement the rookie quarterback needs to make to build off Sunday's 24-21 comeback victory.
Mike Sherman, the Miami Dolphins' blunt-speaking offensive coordinator and the man who knows Tannehill best in the building, went right for the overturned end-zone interception Tannehill threw in the fourth quarter.

"Well, not to make that throw back across the grain," Sherman said. "That would probably be the next step. We have to make sure he doesn't do that, which I doubt very much he will."
During their time together at Texas A&M, where Tannehill played well enough to be chosen eighth overall in the NFL Draft but not well enough to keep Sherman from getting fired, the kid showed an impressive ability to be self-critical – in a healthy way.
"One thing, as I've said before and I'll continue to say it, he's the first one to know when he screws up and makes a mistake," Sherman said. "He's hard on himself. I'm glad we survived that, but I doubt very much you'll see that pass again."
What about the next step Tannehill needs to take to climb the ranks of NFL quarterbacks? Tom Brady comes in here Sunday ranked second in the league in passer rating, just behind Aaron Rodgers.
Meanwhile, Tannehill actuallly dropped a spot Sunday, from 30th to 31st, among the 34 qualifying passers. He is just behind Jets flop Mark Sanchez in the ratings.
"The next step for him is just to continue to believe in himself and to have the confidence he demonstrated to the rest of the team, particularly the offense, where we had the ball there at the end of the game," Sherman said. "They all believed in him and trusted him. Just to build off that confidence, I think, is the biggest thing."
How about you? What improvements do you still want to see from Tannehill?

i'm C1W4D1 and I went into this thinking "thank god for at least 1 day to eat whatever i want to". and with Easter I had planned on taking FULL advantage of it. BUT the very first free day I got I felt "gross" after eating my old way. Don't get me wrong I did eat out and get some Easter candy but I'm freezing MOST of the choclate candy for another free day.....
I know that for me, I wouldn't be able to get through the week knowing that I couldn't have a "binge fest" on my free days. But, I have noticed that I eat less and less on my free days- I still get what I want, but I am becoming more accustomed smaller portions. If you can do it, though, binge away I say, but make sure you eat perfectly perfect throughout the week and continue rigorous exercise.
"The joy of life is the fruit of discipline" -S. Randall
I hate the word binge! Here's why...this past Sunday I did just that...I binged. I ate like a pig. I ate like there wouldn't ever be fun food in front of me again. I stayed up late to take full advantage of my free day. I was out of control. Monday I felt like I drank 2 cases of beer. That is an all out mental game I hate that I randomly play with myself. Everytime I do that it takes me days to regroup. I put back on every pound that I had lost that week. Now I will spend 2 weeks losing the same amount of weight I actually lost in 1 week. Hellllloooooo? Smart? NOT!
On the other hand, there are free days that I don't focus on BFL at all, however, I don't purposely focus on eating every crappy thing in site. I just remove the structure and make the best choices I can. Those days I can live with.
Free day without ANY crap...probably not for me!! That isn't real for me. Life is always going to be in front of me. I can't take a protein shake and fruit to every wedding, family reunion and work luncheon that I go to. I will have times when real life happens. I will need to make the best choices that I can when those situations arise.
I am sure I won't "BINGE" for the next 3-4 Sundays. I still feel like I have a hangover. Likely I will make that same stupid mistake quite a few more times before I realize that I am not going to die without a cheeseburger this week.
Keep the faith!
Faithful Renee :0)
I did cheat on the cheat day, but, but was still conservative with the portions.
Don't want to make myself sick, or have a rough night. haha
"What you put in, is what you are going to get back."
- Terry
LOL Renee, nice.
Sadly, I don't even think about controlling myself on free day. I take full advantage and I don't even really wish I could control it, I like it for what is and it also serves as a nice reminder of why I want to sustain my BFL.
To each their own.
In my humble experience, there is a huge difference between a binge and having free day.
Binges are behavior related and can usually be followed back to something, be it emotional or stress related, going on that would make an otherwise structured person become a total train wreck.
I struggle to believe that one person who posts on this site saying that they binge on free day WANTS to do that.
It's not the same as enjoying free day to the fullest. It's an uncharacteristic behavior that if allowed to can totally wreak havoc on unsuspecting folks struggling with food issues. It creates feelings of shame and guilt along with the hangover symptoms mentioned by Renee. It can also take a little while to admit to yourself that it's what's happening in the name of free day.
Just my two cents and personal experience.

Absolutely!! My first challenge when I was 44 years old gave me great results! My profile pic is me at the end of that first challenge. This is kind of funny when I think about it but my free days were wild. If my free day was on Saturday, Friday night I would have the kitchen table stocked up with chocolate....tarts....cookies...you name it. I'd go to bed that night and could hardly wait for morning to come so I could start pigging out. I still had fantastic results. I am currently on another challenge now (50 yrs. old) and my free days have somewhat tamed down but I still eat whatever I want whenever I want on that one day. It's a mental break as well as a physical break from the weekly routine. Hope this helps.

Great post Renee!!
It is funny Champster09, Its nice to know its there and I can be mindless that day. Like finishing my kids mac and cheese. But now I can say I don't set out to eat like its my last meal. Free day will come around again and I do want to have a nice meal like maybe something in the "eating for life book". Clean eating can be yummy too.
I have started using the eating for life book now that I have finished my challenge, and every meal I have had from it has been very good.
I especially like the hawaiian pita pizza.

Born of a luxuriant white gold, encrusted in blue sapphires, garnets and diamonds, it is majestic and worldly. As much sculpture as it is accessory, imagination dictates its brilliance.

Hermès may be most famous for their highly covetable Birkin bag, but those into watches know that the French purveyor is equally remarkable at making high quality timepieces. The Cape Cod, with its double-wrapping Barenia leather strap, is as classic as it is modern. We like the stainless steel case and tan strap but many styles are available.

And, it's already delightfully packaged in handmade muslin furoshiki wrapping to make a gift-giver's life just a bit easier

Black Druzy Necklace $325
And now, a brief geology lesson: Ultra-glittery stone Druzy is created in a million-year-long geological process, when water containing minerals evaporates on the surface of other rocks and leaves behind a twinkling layer. Psychics believe the gem can remove energy blockages and allow us to discover our own inner light. Berkeley-based jeweler Melissa Joy Manning uses this semi-precious world wonder in her dazzling Black Druzy necklace, handmade from ethically sourced materials for a pendant as sustainable as it is stunning.
Fine Light Trading
Enamel Chief Rings $375
Mexican souvenir rings were originally cast from melted down pesos, as the currency had lost much value following the Mexican Civil War.

All rings are handmade to order and as much collector's items as the originals.

Spanish Springs rolled over the Carondelet Cougars, 10-0, in four innings to secure one of the four spots in the championship gold bracket by winning its pool.
"I think we had four or five home runs today that would be out of any park including ours," SSHS softball coach Jeff Davidson said. "We had a bunch of triples. Today we executed all three aspects of the game. We got good pitching. We didn't make an error in all three games and we hit. When you can execute all three areas of the game, you're going to be successful, and we were today."
The Purple and White only had six hits against the all-girls Catholic School from Concord, Calif., but when it made contact, the ball went very, very far.
Spanish Springs sent 10 batters to the plate in the first inning and tallied five runs thanks to a bases-clearing, three-run triple by Myrissa Prince and a two-run blast by Kayla Arterburn, her second homer of the day.
In the bottom of the second, Kelsie Merritt and Brette Lawrence led off the inning with walks. Then, freshman Ally Batastini launched a towering shot down the left-field line for a two-run triple. Batastini later scored to make it an 8-0 ballgame on a Bayley Broadwater RBI groundout.
Sidney Sinclair sent everyone home early thanks to her rocket to center field with the bases loaded, sending two runners home to score and institute the 10-run mercy rule.
Arterburn was the lone Spanish Springs player to have more than one hit in the game.
Lawrence pitched four innings to pick up her second win of the day, allowing three hits, while striking out two and walking none.
In the first game of the day, Spanish Springs' bats came out hot, rapping out 11 hits in an 11-0 win over Douglas.
Dani Smith got the Cougars started with a leadoff triple. She scored on a Lawrence grounder to second base.
Spanish Springs went scoreless in the second inning but pushed across four runs in the third inning and six in the fourth.
Broadwater hasn't had many at-bats this season, but she made the most of them Friday. Against the Tigers, she belted a pair of home runs and drove in four runs.
Arterburn also circled the sacks on a two-run shot.
Smith and Batastini recorded two hits, and Prince added an RBI in the win.
Lawrence pitched all four innings in her three-hitter.
In the second game of the day, Spanish Springs' bats were quieter. The Cougars hit too many balls in the air early on, but they got timely hits when it mattered to secure a 7-3 victory over Fernley.
Leading the way again was Broadwater, who crushed the first pitch she saw during her third-inning at-bat and cleared the loaded bases with an inside-the-park home run. That gave her three home runs and eight RBI during the first two games of the tournament. She finished the day with nine RBI.
The grand slam capped a six-run rally in the top of the third for the Cougs, giving the local squad a 6-1 lead.
The Vaqueros got on the board first in the opening inning. Cheyenne Brewer led off the bottom of the first with a single off Batastini. Brewer eventually scored on a wild pitch.
Trailing 6-1, Fernley made it a 6-3 game in the bottom of the fourth when Brooke Mattice and Kelsie Callahan ripped an RBI triple and RBI single in succession.
Spanish Springs added its final run in the top of the fifth. Sadye Roulund tattooed a run-scoring triple to dead center field.
Fernley out-hit Spanish Springs 5-4 in the game, but pitcher Hayley Mull walked six batters and hit two others to help the Cougar offense.
Batastini threw the first four innings to pick up the pitching win, while Lawrence tossed a scoreless fifth frame.
Spanish Springs (16-4) opens gold bracket play today at 11 a.m. and needs two wins to take home the title.
"It's great to be able to play in the winners' bracket. The team was very focused today, and I'm hoping they come out tomorrow with the same focus and intensity," Davidson said.

GAMBIER A grant from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences brings accomplished cinematographer Jacek Laskus to Kenyon College for a series of workshops with film students and a public talk on his work.
Laskus, a member of the American Society of Cinematographers, has done feature film, documentary and television work in the United States and around the world. He has also shot a number of music videos. Laskus has worked with directors Robert Altman, Jonathan Demme, Michael Pressman and others. He is a native of Poland and is now based in Los Angeles.
The $5,000 grant helps provide an opportunity for Laskus to work with students from Thursday to Feb. 18. He will discuss his work in a free public talk on Thursday at 5:30 p.m. in the Gund Gallery Community Foundation Theater, 101 1/2 College Drive.
Kenyon students will work with Laskus to plan and execute the cinematography for a short film, said Rebecca Wolf, assistant professor of drama. With funding from this grant we are able to offer students hands-on experience in cinematography under the guidance of a professional artist, Wolf said. Such encounters with working professionals broaden the educational opportunities for our students and help them prepare for the transition from Kenyon to the professional world.

"I ordered this card in Wintergreen (with the red striped back), using the Pearl White Shimmer paper. The paper quality was beautiful - the shimmer added an elegant special touch to the card. I have not sent these out yet, so I can't comment on the color transfer to the envelope.... but regardless, the card came out beautifully! My only "complaint" with Tiny Prints is that your options to minimize/enlarge and position photos is fairly limited. I couldn't position my photo exactly as I had hoped so had to cut off some of the photo to make it work with this template."
"This christmas card was just beautiful, the colors are so vibrant and festive and the paper quality is fantastic. I was really pleased with this product adn would reccomend it others looking for a holiday card that will stand out from teh rest."
"I loved everything about this card except for the font I chose for the back of the card. It was so tiny you could barely read it. I went with the bracket cutout which looks great on this card."
"We personalized it by using a fun loving, energetic, whimsical, picture of our kids. They are older 15 and 24 so we needed something silly and fun, not traditional and stoic. With the simplicity of the message we can use this card for everyone!!!! Plus we were able to add a couple of lines for a message and then 3 more fun pictures on the back! We loved it!"
"This card is beautiful. I got the pale pink and it is a beautiful shade of soft pink. The design is just enough so that your photo(s) is the star of the card. The paper quality and size are great. I have ordered many products from Tiny Prints and have yet to be disappointed! The only problem is sometimes it is hard to choose from so many beautiful designs!"

Jim is a graduate of Montana Institute of the Bible in Lewistown, Mont. He retired in 2007 after 27 years as a Village Missionary pastor in the Western and Mid-western United States.

Jeannie said. Both Rev. Jim and Jeannie agree Sierra Valley is a "great place to live!"Village Missions is an interdenominational home mission board, meaning it is an organization that provides spiritual leadership to rural churches in the USA and Canada who request leadership from Village Missions. Their slogan is "Keeping Country Churches Alive," and they have been instructing their missionaries to "Preach the Word," and "Love the People" for more than 60 years.Sierraville Community Church is located at 424 S.

U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx today announced a Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) loan for $60 million that will help pay for the reconstruction of U.S. 36 express lanes in the Boulder-Denver area, bringing congestion relief to drivers throughout the region. The TIFIA loan announced today is in addition to an earlier $54 million TIFIA loan provided to Colorado to rebuild U.S. 36, bringing the Department's total support for the project to $114 million. The TIFIA loan will help finance reconstruction of a 5.1 mile segment of U.S. 36.

The project will save significant travel time for drivers commuting from Boulder to Denver as well as to cities along the corridor.

Danish researchers report that high levels of transferrin may contribute to the destruction of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. Transferrin is a glycoprotein that binds with iron and transfers it to cells.
The researchers at the University of Copenhagen were looking to expand on previous studies indicating that higher levels of stored and ingested iron are associated with a higher risk of type 2. In their experiments on mice, they found that removing transferrin from genetically modified animals protected them against the onset of diabetes. They also found that elevated transferrin was associated with a two- to threefold increased risk of developing type 1 or type 2.
High iron levels have also been associated with other health problems, such as kidney disease, vascular problems, and atherosclerosis. While the Danish researchers say that people with prediabetes may want to discuss their iron intake with their physician, more studies are needed before scientists can definitely advise against taking certain amounts or iron or recommending ways to lower the amount of iron in the bloodstream.

The June 1999 Philadelphia Magazine rated the UA Main Street 6 a "3" on a 1 to 5 scale with comment: "Manayunk deserves better" A high rating was awarded in the Seating category. Instead of the characterization "First-run mainstream" applied to other mainstream moviehouses, the term "Lame mainstream" was used.
From November 2006 Philadelphia Weekly:
Most Hit or Miss
If you catch a flick on one of the United Artists' Main Street 6's two giant screens, you're in for an enveloping treat. If you get stuck in one of its four smaller houses, well, you're screwed.

Bud is an absolute joke. His "commission" on getting a new stadium for the A's has been in place for nearly FIVE years. He has been kicking the can down the road because he doesn't have the stones to stand up to powerful owners, in this case the group that owns the Giants.
Fact is, the A's ownership GAVE the Giants the territorial rights to San Jose in 1992 to help keep them from moving to Florida. Not smart but a generous thing to do as the Bay area is a strong two team market.
Another fact is that a move to S.J. would put the A's more than THREE times further away from San Fran than they are now. I never met anyone who changed team allegiance when another team moved further away from their favorite team.
Any other commissioner would have resolved this one way or the other in about six months. Good bye Buddy (20 years too late) and thanks for NOTHING!
Don't let it hit you in the a** on the way out
