MeeGo Announces Handset and Core OS Hierarchies
Who does what at the MeeGo project.
MeeGo, the open source mobile OS jointly backed by Intel and Nokia, has been fleshing out some of the finer points of the project's governance and policy over on MeeGo.com. The people in charge of both the Core OS and the Handset Program were also named and their positions were fleshed out.
From the project's website:
The Core OS Program has the following structure:
Karl Gran manages the MeeGo Core OS Program, responsible for delivering all the platform functionality to meet the needs of the official MeeGo device categories.
Gavin Hindman is the product manager for the MeeGo Core OS, responsible for managing the content of the Core OS releases, in terms of requirements, roadmap and release descriptions, and for negotiating the content with the core program and its various stakeholders, such as other MeeGo programs and all Working Groups.
Sakari Poussa is the lead architect of MeeGo Core OS, responsible for architecture, day-to-day technical decisions, and architecture evolution in that area.
Alexander Kanevskiy is the MeeGo Core OS release manager, responsible of planning and producing the Core OS releases.
Tommi Toropainen is the QA lead for MeeGo Core OS
The handset program has the following structure:
Pierre Blouin manages the MeeGo Handset Program, responsible for delivering the reference UX for the handset category.
Sami Pienimäki is the product manager for the MeeGo Handset UX, responsible for managing the content of the handset releases in terms of requirements and of roadmap and release descriptions, and for negotiating the content with the program and its various stakeholders, steered by the MeeGo Handset Working Group.
Mikko Ylinen is the lead architect for the MeeGo Handset UX, responsible for architecture, day-to-day technical decisions, and architecture evolution in that area.
Petri Koski is the QA lead for the MeeGo Handset UX.
Chris Ferron is the MeeGo Handset UX release manager, responsible for planning and producing handset releases.
Martin Schuele is the lead designer for the MeeGo handset UX and MeeGo Touch Framework, responsible for the design and validation of the MeeGo Handset UX
MeeGo is governed by a Technical Steering Committee, which sets goals for the project and speaks on its behalf. Imad Sousou and Valtteri Halla serve as the project's benevolent dictators. The Technical Steering Group meets biweekly.
In addition to the Technical Steering Committee, hands-on development is divided up into teams that handle distribution development, manage programs, and uphold quality assurance.
There are also four working groups that are headed by delegates of the Technical Steering Committee. These groups are focused on one of four areas of the project and provide suggestions and expert advice regarding policy, requirements, and direction. Currently the working groups are, Netbook, Handheld, In-Vehicle, and Connected TV.
If the hierarchy looks familiar, that's because the MeeGo Project operates under the supervision of the Linux Foundation.

Employers are failing to face up to the threats posed by employees who use their own mobile devices at work – 40% of companies do not consider the 'bring your own device' (BYOD) trend even to be on their agenda, according to a survey of IT workers.
Iron Mountain claims that up to two-thirds of employees work from home in Europe at least part of the time – but a mere 18% of firms offer guidance on how to protect information outside the office.
A BYOD dissonance between economic imperative and loss of central control? Discontented staff susceptible to social engineering? David Harley reflects on aspects of Business Reimagined, a new book by Dave Coplin, chief envisioning officer at Microsoft UK, interivewed by Ross McGuinness in Metro.

The phenomenon of organizations allowing or encouraging their employees to use their own computing devices for work–known as Bring Your Own Device, or BYOD–is now widespread in many countries, bringing with it some serious risks to company networks and data.

|Get Rid of Your Mirrors or Weight Loss with Yoga
Yoga means union, union between body and mind, connection between breath and movement, connection between all of us... and the divine universe. Yoga is one of the ancient systems of Indian philosophy. Literally in Sanskrit, the language of the yoga tradition, yoga means union.
Yoga works its magic by bringing body and mind into a state of harmony and balance. People come to yoga for different reasons, some to improve health, others to manage stress. In reality, yoga is both proventive and therapeutic.
Yoga one of the very few exercisesthat offer benefits for your body and mind. To begin with, yoga offers a lot of physical benefits as it strengthens, tones,and builds muscles, increases flexibility, stimulates the endocrine system, improves digestion, increases circulation, relaxes the nervous system, improves immune response, decreases cholesterol and blood sugar levels, invites balance and grace, increases body awareness, encourages weight loss, prevents aging, and energizes the body.
Also, yoga has been shown to offer the following mental benefits or mind benefits: relieves chronic stress patterns, quiets the mind, centers attention, sharpens concentration and frees the mind. In addition, yoga helps overcome addictions such as nicotine, alcohol and even eating disorders.
Although there are many styles of yoga, such as Kripalu, Bikram, Kundalini, Iyengar, and Ashtanga; the basic Asana(yoga postures)and Pranayama(breathing practice) remain the same. How they are done, in what order and where attention is focused while practicing them represent the main difference between the yoga schools.
Therefore, varieties of yoga are not a panacea, but support the mind-body connection to health and well-being.

Help Anniston win $25,000 in a national competition! The Spirit of Anniston will be entering one of Anniston's most historic buildings into a national competition sponsored by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Entitled "This Place Matters", the competition will feature hi...storic landmarks across the nation in hopes of bringing recognition and funding to the landmark that receives the most votes from community members. As one of Anniston's gateway buildings, the historic Anniston City Land Company building was intended by the city's founders to be an exhibition of their vision for the progressive city. Vote to help most amazing city "model city" in Alabama.
In the very first book I had about yoga, author Gita Iyengar advised students to get rid of the mirrors. WHAT??? I want to see what I am doing… how I look… then after a few years I realized why…
To begin with, in the state I am living, Alabama, according to CDC ( Center for Disease Control and Prevention), the state obesity rate is 31.4%. Alabama ranks in the second highest place behind Mississippi. Although Mississippi is a great state, I am more interested in the data of the state I am living in. Let's look at the statistics with the lowest rate – Colorado, with an obesity rate of 18.5% and the population is not significantly different than Alabama. Alabama has 4,708,708 and the population of Colorado is 5,024,748 as stated by U.S. Census Bureau Population Division (July 2009). What secret do the people in Colorado have to stay in shape? I did some research to solve the mystery.
Due to a fact that I am a long time yoga practitioner and yoga instructor in beautiful Anniston, Alabama, I had begun my digging into this familiar area. The largest yoga directory on the internet, Yoga Finder was very handy. First I calculated how many different cities in Alabama and in Colorado offered yoga services and classes. In Alabama there are 20 cities and in Colorado 69, so Colorado is larger than Alabama, nothing unusual there… then I decided to calculate all of the studios and teachers in both states. The result of this calculation almost threw me of my feet… Colorado has three hundred ten places (310) to practice yoga; however, Alabama only forty four (44) listings including myself. Although the population of the states are almost equal, the fact that Alabama defiantly has much less yoga classes per person is a reality. I am not analyzing and I am not making any conclusions, therefore draw your own.
Mirrors, mirrors, mirrors… They make us sad, happy, ugly, overweight, old, beautiful… Is it true? Magazines with beautiful girls on the front page… Is it true? I am looking into this mirror, well I am not flexible and not so strong and I will look funny on this yoga mat, well maybe next year I will be in better shape and kids will be at school and maybe I can prepare myself for yoga…
Before you start a fight with calories, remember what you fight…you become. So don't fight yourself when your deal with weight. You probably will lose or win temporary. Better to approach this problem with inner peace through meditation and yoga. Yoga will teach you how to take responsibility for every cell in your body, how to connect yourself to the divine and to others, how to balance everything in your life. Isn't it wonderful to be in balance? You will never be overweight…
We are taking responsibility for our kids. We want them to be healthy. Why don't we take that same responsibility for ourselves, in order to provide a good example for our kids? The more I fight myself, the more it is impossible to overcome food addiction. It brings worry about the future and guilt about the past. And here I am with the last can soda in my hand seeking pleasure to make my stress go away.
I realize why we should get rid of the mirrors in the beginning, because your mind and your body should guide you. It is in human nature to compare yourself to the gorgeous pictures from a magazine or from a book... then your mind immediately rejects…you are not that…and the fight starts over. So "really" get rid of the mirrors… See your progress with different vision. See your progress with your inner eyes which required you to love yourself and all existence around you. Your best teacher is you. Trust and believe in yourself, it is the key to happiness and balance.
Yoga teaches non-violence toward yourself and others. First Yama or social ethics in yoga is called Ahimsa means non- violence, compassion. "Behave in kindness, friendliness, and thoughtful consideration of all beings and things, as well as yourself" Deva Parnell, Director of Discovery Yoga. All of this impossible yoga postures or weight loss programs… all of it starts with inner peace. You can take control with every breath you take. Take this responsibility for every cell in your body and stop the violence within.
"Action should be based on love not on the ideas, because ideas represent past or future", Krishnamurti said. Instead of looking at what already exists, be the creator of your own body, take control of your own breath. Everything in this life should be natural…even weight loss.
Namaste… means " the divine being in me acknowledges and respect the divine being in you"

PORTLAND — Redevelopment of the Portland Company Marine Complex is likely years away, but city officials, neighbors and others are already weighing the potential of the prime waterfront property, including opportunities for business, housing and historic preservation.
The Portland Co. Complex is seen in this aerial photograph dated February 6, 2013.

The Portland Company complex sprawls along Fore Street as seen from the Ocean Gateway Garage. The property has been sold.
2012 Press Herald File Photo / Gabe Souza
CPB2, a Yarmouth-based development company, bought the 10-acre property on Fore Street last week from its longtime owner, Phineas Sprague Jr., triggering a series of land deals that could transform Portland's waterfront over the next several years.
CPB2 principals Jim Brady and Casey Prentice said they have no immediate plans for the sprawling industrial complex, which dates to the mid-1800s, but intend to redevelop it according to the city's Eastern Waterfront Master Plan.
City Councilor Cheryl Leeman was mayor when she appointed the committee that developed the plan more than a decade ago. The plan has been updated twice since then, most recently in 2006.
"It took a 32-member committee and lots of controversy to develop that plan, so it's nice to see this happening with the Portland Company property," Leeman said Monday. "It provides momentum for future development. It's the final piece of the puzzle."
CPB2 includes Brady, a Yarmouth resident who is redeveloping the former headquarters of the Portland Press Herald; the Prentice Organization of Yarmouth, a real estate holding company led by Prentice, who owns and manages the Chebeague Island Inn; and his father, Dick Prentice, a partner in the Portland law firm Pierce Atwood.
There are two minority partners, including a Boston-area investor, Brady said.
The Portland Company complex, with 1,000 feet of deep-water ocean frontage, is at the base of Munjoy Hill on the eastern waterfront. It now houses several businesses and nonprofits, including Portland Yacht Services, the Maine Island Trail Association and the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad and Museum.
Sprague, who sold the complex, plans to develop a boatyard up the Fore River on land on West Commercial Street that he bought last week from Pan Am Railways.
Sprague said he will remain the "master tenant" at the complex, which will continue to host boat and flower shows each year for at least the next couple of years. The new owners plan to upgrade the 128-slip marina at the complex, but Sprague will continue to run it.
The nonprofit that operates the railroad and museum has been planning to move, but Sprague said he hopes it will decide to stay.
Brady and Casey Prentice said they met recently with city officials to learn how zoning ordinances apply to the waterfront complex and express their willingness to collaborate with the city. They would not reveal the price of the property and said it is too early to discuss plans.
"We would envision mixed-use development in keeping with the city's master plan for the eastern waterfront," Brady said. "We do think there are some unique historical and architectural attributes of the property that may be preserved."
The Portland Company was founded in 1845 primarily to build steam locomotives for the new Atlantic & St. Lawrence Railroad, which had a terminal nearby. It operated until 1982, producing locomotives and railroad cars, marine engines, ships, elevators, paper and textile mill equipment and other cast-metal items.
The master plan describes the complex as an early manufacturing center with "several large brick-and-granite buildings of architectural significance," and notes that the Maine Historic Preservation Commission identified the property in 1976 as eligible for the National Register of Historic Places.

I'm sure I have.
I don't cold ferment. I've had plenty of big bubbles, but I've never seen the spider webs.
Oh so you've never tasted the spider web texture?
No. Only seen it in pictures.
Time to make some cold ferments.
I'll look forward to seeing your pictures.
Actually I was referring to you. I know you use a starter so may need to use some IDY.
PE101:I think what you are making reference to is called "open crumb structure" aka "open grain". The best way that I know to get this characteristic is through a combination of high dough absorption and high baking temperature when combined with sufficient fermentation time (usually 2 to 3-days in the fridge).Tom Lehmann/The Dough Doctor
I agree. There is "open crumb structure," and there is "zero crumb structure." I would classify the spider webs as the latter.

Mazzarri shifts focus away from Cavani
Walter Mazzarri reiterated his belief that Napoli are not a one-man team, a remarkable claim given Edinson Cavani's four-goal salvo in European competition this week.
The Partenopei have floundered in Serie A over recent weeks while their Uruguayan striker has been injured, both drifting away from league leaders Juventus and being leapfrogged into third by Inter Milan.
Ahead of Sunday's trip to Genoa, Mazzarri has once again rejected suggestions that his other forwards are lost without Cavani, who returned to lead a 4-2 comeback victory over Dnipro in the Europa League.
The 51-year-old told La Repubblica: "Once again it looked like everything was going against us, but with a great performance we triumphed over adversity.
"It is not true that we are dependent on Cavani. He scored four goals but his team-mates provided four unbelievably good assists.
"It's always down to the whole team, he just finishes off everybody's hard work."
Cavani - known as 'The Matador' - will hope to add to his seven league goals when Napoli visit the Stadio Luigi Ferraris in a bid to heap further woe on struggling Genoa.
Grifone president Enrico Preziosi put a four-game losing streak to one side to assure fans that the Ligurian club will not be relegated at the end of the season.
Preziosi moved to replace Luigi De Canio with Luigi Del Neri last month but the Rossoblu's subsequent form has taken a nosedive, leaving the club marooned in 17th place.
"I can assure you that Genoa will not go down to Serie B," said Preziosi.
"It's right that the fans are getting angry, but we need to react and put these bad times behind us.
"I understand the supporters, but it is important that we feel them close to us at the moment."
Genoa were forced to deny reports this week that their former player, Kakha Kaladze, was behind a consortium interested in purchasing the club.
Former defender Kaladze made over 50 appearances in Rossoblu colours but is currently working as Minister of Energy for the Georgian government.
Cristobal Jorquera is beginning his slow recuperation from a thigh strain, with fellow midfielder Marco Rossi and striker Marco Borriello not expected to resume training until next week at the earliest.

On a recent summer evening, the greatest player in the history of chess, Garry Kasparov, wrapped up an exhausting series of meetings devoted to the defeat of the Kremlin regime. After days of debate, a motley pride of unlikely revolutionaries—bearded politicos, earnest academics, and multigrained environmentalists—collected their cigarettes and left Kasparov's apartment, divided and worn out. Little had been accomplished. Crumpled drafts of fevered proclamations lay scattered on the kitchen table. Puffy-eyed and unsmiling, Kasparov grunted a curt farewell to his comrades and went off to make yet another urgent telephone call.
Kasparov is forty-four. He was the world chess champion for fifteen years. Until his retirement, two years ago, his dominance was unprecedented. Lasker, Capablanca, Alekhine, Fischer—none came close. Chess has outsized meaning in Russia, and Kasparov at home was a cross between the greatest of athletes and a revered intellectual; with his status came celebrity, foreign investment accounts, summers on the Adriatic, an apartment along the Hudson River, friendships among Western politicians and businessmen, and the attentions of beautiful women. Now he has volunteered for grim and, very likely, futile duty. As the most conspicuous leader of Drugaya Rossiya (the Other Russia), an umbrella group of liberals, neo-Bolsheviks, and just about anyone else wishing to speak ill of Vladimir Putin, he is in nominal charge of opposition politics in a country that, in actuality, has no real politics except for that which takes place in the narrow and inscrutable space between the ears of its President.
Kasparov's mother, Klara, shares his apartment and his travails. "It is like we are soldiers together in the ditches," she once said. "Even when we are at a great distance, Garry and I can feel each other's mood." Like her son, Klara Kasparova is impossibly energetic, deeply intelligent, and a touch melodramatic. It had been a tedious few days of marathon jawing and internal spats. The Other Russia was scheduled to hold its annual conference the next morning at a Holiday Inn in central Moscow, but some of its leading figures had decided to boycott over the question of whether to unify immediately behind a single Presidential candidate for the March, 2008, election.
"All day and night, people running here and there, meeting, talking, drinking tea," Klara Kasparova said, with a long sigh. Her dyed-red hair was askew, her face slack. "This apartment has been like Smolny." A romantic analogy: the Smolny Institute for Noble Maidens, in St. Petersburg, had been the Bolshevik headquarters during the October Revolution. Lenin barely left the building in those manic weeks, and, when he did, he sometimes disguised himself in surgical bandages.
Kasparov's redoubt in the Arbat neighborhood of Moscow is not nearly as elegant as Smolny, but the address is one of Soviet-era privilege and among the most expensive areas on the real-estate market. Government officials and members of the cultural élite were awarded apartments there. Kasparov was never obedient or politically reliable like his great rival Anatoly Karpov, but he didn't lack for comforts. His kitchen has a flat-screen television, an Italian espresso machine, and other swish appliances that would surely have brightened Lenin's late nights at Smolny.
Kasparov pocketed his phone and slumped into a chair at the kitchen table. He is handsome and athletic, but thicker than he once was, and his hair, black and curly when he won the world championship, is now graying and cropped close to his skull. Though the meetings had ended with a split, which Russia's small opposition can ill afford, Kasparov seemed to thrive on the claustrophobic intensity of kitchen politics. "The intellectual brainstorming always takes place here," he said. "We did it like this when I was playing chess and when I was beginning in politics, in the nineties. The kitchen tradition is part of our culture."
Klara asked a maid to make coffee. The espresso came bolshoi trippio—enormous mugs of steaming caffeine. It became easier to see how Kasparov was able to work heroic hours and then, well after midnight, settle down at his computer to play "blitz"—five-minute-long games of chess. He plays anonymously, but the cognoscenti know his style of attack. They still feel his presence. Sinatra cannot sing anonymously.
Kasparov explained why Mikhail Kasyanov, who had served for four years as Prime Minister under Putin and was now angling to run as the opposition's Presidential candidate, would skip the Other Russia conference. Kasparov, unlike Kasyanov, believes that the opposition can challenge the Kremlin only after it grows, from the bottom up; his argument, which prevailed, was that the Other Russia had to hold extensive Presidential primaries in the Russian provinces, with numerous debates and public meetings, before choosing its nominee in October. "What's the point otherwise?" Kasparov said. "The only chance to capture people's attention and get the crowds to come, to get engaged, is by demonstrating that we act democratically."
Although Kasparov's popularity ratings are higher than Kasyanov's, they are both marginal in the Land of Putin. Even if Kasparov decides to run (and he probably will), the government would not likely register his candidacy, and, even if it did, he could not win. The point is to create an alternative, not to be deluded into thinking there is an open election that can be won. Besides, Kasparov is half Armenian, half Jewish—not exactly an ideal ethnic mix for a politician in a country with deep currents of anti-Caucasian and anti-Semitic feeling.
The details of Kasparov's dispute with Kasyanov were, ultimately, of small moment. For all practical purposes, Putin will select his successor, much as his predecessor, Boris Yeltsin, designated him—unless he forgoes his promise to stand down and changes the constitution to allow a third term. Although a great many Russians would not object if he were to declare himself, Mobutu style, President for Life, it seems increasingly unlikely that he will stay.

Love the action and dynamics. Knock kneed or bow legged, your characters have a wicked style.
Good lord, I love it. Your work is like calligraphy.
I was once on the receiving end of a critique so savagely nasty, I marched straight out of class to the office and changed my major (sketchbook).
Thats fucking fresh.
Really nice style i see a lot of mike mignola in this which is awesome.
You're exaggerations are really well done all i'll say is that some of the knee areas are exaggerated so much its a bit confusing so maybe a pinch of subtletly in those areas would help but its so stylized i could be totally wrong.
Cant wait to see more stuff your last couple of pieces have been damn solid. keep it up.
Greatness all the way.
Could see this animated bye Robert Valley.
Any books out ?
i love your caracter pose! how do you do that!
Some Great updates.

This whole thread is just YUMMY! It's like candy. such strong illustration, very graphic. Your style, as has been mentioned, is very strong an very pleasing, but I also love your use of colour - its just a perfect marriage with the line work! Is it me or have you throttled back a bit on the stylization in the shin area on the figures in the more recent stuff? It looks that way to me anyhow - and I think it works much better. Love it! Love it! Love It!
Edit: As well as Mignola I also see some Sienkiewicz in there.

Awesome stuff, man. Only someone with an incredible grasp of the human form could experiment and pull off such wild exaggeration. It scares me and inspires me simultaneously, haha! I love it.

Mon. - Sat. 5pm - 10pm;Sun. CLOSED
Best Lobster Bisque! – I trully love the lobster bisque here. I've tasted it throughout the US and this one is the best! The bone in filet is outstanding. If youwant to fine dine this is the place to go. Come prepared to pay top dollars and you will get in return said. I've been sending visitors for year there and they love it. They make there own irish creme as well.
Not the best for the price – Dinner for 2 $160
1 appetizer
2 salads
2 entrees
one side
The "3 forks" salad was bland and not very "crisp" tasteing. I've had better at Roy's. The Wedge salad was plain and smothered in the thick dressing.
The appetizer was fine one of the beef tenderloins was grissely.
The chillean sea bass was good the a nice thick large filet.
The baseball cut 10oz steak was good but a little tough on spots. Cooked med well. I added pepper gravy sauce the flavor was good. Ive had better at Del Frisco's
Each entree comes with sides (potatoes, and some veggies. these were good.
Added side of Mac and Cheese. Not very good was "watery"
The service was fine but not great or as attentive as other steak houses in the area.
For a similar meal at otehr very good restaurants the cost was by far not in line with the quality. Steak and Ale would have been just as good as the Silver Fox and cost a fraction of the price.

Psilocybin Mushrooms (2 caps onset)
by Danny Damore on January 21, 2011
Bryan Lewis Saunders eats drugs and paints pictures of himself. Might be the best use of drugs yet.
After experiencing drastic changes in my environment, I looked for other experiences that might profoundly affect my perception of the self. So I devised another experiment where everyday I took a different drug and drew myself under the influence. Within weeks I became lethargic and suffered mild brain damage.

Lunch is most popular daypart
Mon, 10/24/11 9:35 AM
Lunch is most popular daypart, but habits vary by generation
Lunch remains the most popular time for patronizing restaurants, recent consumer research shows, but restaurants need to reach a diverse dining-out audience in different ways.
The first "Dining Out" study from group-buying service LivingSocial, released last week, found that consumers eat out at the midday meal more than at any other time.
The survey of 4,000 consumers in the United States found that, on average, Americans eat 2.6 meals at restaurants per week at lunchtime, compared with 1.4 average weekly sit-down dinners and 0.8 average weekly breakfast or brunch visits.
But another study published by Chicago-based research firm Technomic found that different generations of consumers view lunch and their conceptions of value at that meal differently, necessitating many varieties of menu items and price points for restaurants.
For example, according to Technomic's "Lunch Consumer Trend Report," the Millennials, or diners aged 18 to 34, are the heaviest users of restaurants at lunchtime and are the diners who use value menus most often.
At the same time, older consumers are likely to be value-conscious, but they tend to order off value menus infrequently when eating lunch out.
"Baby boomers are motivated heavily by value, but other significant motivations include health and quality of food," said Sara Monnette, Technomic's director of consumer research. "The most health-conscious consumers skew 45 and older, so their value equation is different than that of a younger person who sees value primarily as a price issue. Older consumers are less likely to perceive value in dollar menu items because of the broader context of their motivations."
Technomic's findings are based on the online-survey responses of 1,500 consumers in the United States.
The firm found that fast, portable and inexpensive options at lunchtime were the highest-rated priorities during the workweek for consumers. However, during weekends, restaurant patrons gave greater importance to customization and fresh preparation when evaluating lunch choices.
Although Technomic survey respondents reported they are packing their lunch more during the workweek due to economic concerns, 35 percent report that they still buy lunch at a restaurant at least twice a week.
Another challenge for restaurants is that more than half of all consumers indicated that they skip lunch at least once a week, and about two-thirds said they replace lunch with a snack at least once a week. However, restaurants still can appeal to these consumers by offering more healthful menu items and smaller portions at lower price points, Technomic said.
About 47 percent of all respondents said they stick to the same few restaurants for their lunch visits every week. However, 40 percent said they eat many different things off their favorite restaurants' menus, meaning that menu variety and customization will continue to loom large for restaurants looking to increase their share of lunchtime traffic.

Metro Vancouver stuck paying Cache Creek landfill royalties
It now costs Metro Vancouver more to use the Cache Creek regional landfill because the dump's owner is paying royalties to local First Nations and passing along the cost.
Belkorp Environmental, the parent firm of landfill operator Wastech, agreed more than three years ago to pay the Ashcroft and Bonaparte Indian bands a royalty on each tonne of garbage dumped at Cache Creek, in order to secure the bands' support for Belkorp's planned expansion of the landfill.
Metro challenged Wastech's decision to pass along the royalty costs, arguing the regional district never agreed to the fees and they shouldn't be counted as part of landfill's operating costs.
An arbitrator ruled in favour of Wastech in November and upheld the payments.
Metro won't disclose exactly how much taxpayers' money now flows to the two bands via the landfill owners, citing confidentiality of the arbitration process.
But when the province approved an initial extension of the landfill in early 2010, the environment ministry said royalties to local communities would be worth $1 million a year.
Surrey Coun. Marvin Hunt said the royalties might mean at most a one or two per cent increase in Metro's landfilling costs, but adds he thinks "a re-evaluation of the whole deal" with Wastech is justified.
"That was never part of an agreement we made with Wastech," Hunt said. "This was a deal Wastech cut on their own behalf to do a future proposal of a future expansion of the Cache Creek landfill. It should come out of their money, not our money."
Richmond Mayor and Metro zero waste committee chair Malcolm Brodie said he was also "surprised and disappointed" by the arbitrator's decision, but noted it is final.
"I find it alarming that a company not a party to the contract with Metro Vancouver can negotiate a royalty and pass along that royalty to Wastech and then to Metro Vancouver."
Brodie said the issue highlights the need for Metro Vancouver to own and control its own waste-disposal facilities, noting such a problem wouldn't arise at the Metro-owned garbage incinerator in Burnaby.
The region intends to build a new waste-to-energy plant over the next several years to end its use of the Cache Creek landfill and most directors so far support regional district ownership of the new plant, not a P3 model where a private firm owns it.
Metro can absorb the extra royalty costs, Brodie said, because the region is running a surplus in its $105-million budget for solid waste management.
Belkorp didn't secure unanimous backing from aboriginal leaders – the Nlaka'pamux Nation Tribal Council continues to oppose expansion of the landfill and did not agree to take royalties.
Wastech officials could not be reached for comment.

text: Conservatives once purported to believe in a set of ideas and ideals. But now it seems they only believe in acquiring political power for power's sake. Thus, they all too often avoid substantive discussion about controversial issues like 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell.' And so it is that they are losing the battle for America.

2010 Larkmead Tocai Friulano
Winemaker Notes
Alcohol 12.8%
80% Tocai Friulano, 20% Sauvignon Blanc
100% Estate Grown Fruit
Barrel aged 6 months in neutral French oak and Stainless Steel barrels
116 cases produced
"Produced only in the best vintages since 2006, our Tocai Friulano is the first release from the 2010 vintage. A mirror to the growing season itself, the wine evolves slowly with soft, broad, subtle nuances in the nose and on the palate. Our Tocai Friulano vines date back to origins of the Larkmead estate in the late 19th Century and echo the vineyard's Italian heritage. Tocai, a native of Italy's northeast region of Friuli, is a serious white wine for summer drinking.
A pale gold, straw-green color leads you to a saline character that sits atop ripe melon, orange pith and almond blossom notes. The unique aromatic profile continues on the palate with a gentle weight reflective of the wine's low alcohol content. Subtle sweet and savory notes of marzipan, ripe pear and a hint of anise are buoyed by a piquant acidity supplied by the Sauvignon Blanc we've blended into the wine.
The wine's broad, textured mouth feel almost begs it be paired with food. Best served above 50 degrees to allow for a full, nuanced presentation and consumed from release date to 2-3 years from the vintage date."
— Dan Petroski, Winemaker

Although night and weekend classes at a university or community college might be ideal for some working mothers, McCann wanted to avoid hiring baby-sitters and giving up family time with her 15- and six-year-old daughters - the ball games, school activities and family dinners.
Responding to TVA's search for an alternative, Tennessee Technological University's Extended Education Office offered her employer, TVA's Colbert Fossil Plant, a chance to bring college instructors into the plant to teach chemistry and algebra to McCann and other employees. And the trip to the northern Alabama plant each week is unbelievably quick because interactive television is the means of travel.
"With our interactive television system, or ITV, we can simulate the college classroom experience right in the workplace," said Julie Galloway, Extended Education area coordinator. "Students and teachers can see and hear each other and interact almost as they would in a traditional classroom."
The ITV system is one of Tennessee Tech's latest efforts to give people other than traditional college students access to university courses and instructors. The system allows instructors to simultaneously teach at multiple sites in Tennessee, Kentucky and Alabama. Programs are designed to meet the needs of employees who need convenient, quality instruction.
The ITV system looks like a surveillance system. At the university, two cameras are mounted just below the ceiling, one in front of the teacher, the other behind. Another camera focuses on a document presenter, which works like an overhead projector. On a table sits a control board about the size of a notebook. It looks like the panel on a microwave, but these buttons control what students see - the instructor, visuals or even video.
The instructor has two monitors, one showing the image being sent to the remote sites, the other showing a classroom. When someone speaks at one of the multiple sites, the voice-activated system places the speaker's site on the instructor's monitor. Each site can see and hear the instructor, plus hear others asking questions.
"I don't even like to watch TV, but this system works great and is as close as you can come to a real, interactive classroom," said McCann. "One instructor performed a chemistry lab experiment and showed a film. And just like a traditional course, you have to do your homework."
Reginald Mazares, a Tennessee Tech math professor, teaches algebra to 13 students at five sites in Tennessee and Alabama. Edward Lisic, a Tennessee Tech chemistry professor, teaches chemistry to 30 students at ten sites in Tennessee, Alabama and Kentucky.
"I tell my students to call me Reggie, and the ice gets broken the first day," said Mazares. "These students are exceptionally motivated, hard-working people who do very well and make grades comparable to my university students."
Tennessee Tech offers the ITV program to all TVA plants, and continues to increase the use of the technology. In addition to these non-credit classes, Tennessee Tech's Extended Education Office offers graduate credit courses by ITV to meet the needs of students pursuing a degree who may live quite a distance from the campus.
McCann pointed out the new perspective ITV classes give to employees. She was pleased her teenage daughter recently ventured to ask her help with chemistry homework.
"Because of Tennessee Tech's classes, I've been able to accomplish something I probably would have never tried," said McCann. "In a recent TVA meeting, I understood a concept I did not understand before I completed my chemistry class. I'm a better employee and feel better about myself because of this opportunity."

Dr. Gerard Yun
Contact InformationEmail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Office Location: A216
Dr. Gerard Yun, conductor, composer, and global music specialist is deeply trained as an ensemble conductor (choirs, orchestra, and opera) in The Western Classical tradition. As a choral/orchestral/opera conductor he held professional posts with the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra, the Colorado Youth Symphony Orchestras, the Orchestra and Chorus of Southern Utah, the San Jose Civic Light Opera, and The Colorado Lyric Theatre. He was one of several conductors invited to study with conductors of the Rimsky-Korsakov Conservatoire in St. Petersburg, Russia just after the fall of the Soviet Union.
His academic career has been shaped by interests in music education, choral music, and the intersections of music as a global phenomenon. Although originally taken up as "hobbies of distraction" his work with instruments such as the Australian Didgeridoo and the Lakota Flute eventually became part of his professional portfolio. This is especially true of his work in Tuvan and Tibetan Overtone Singing and the Japanese Zen Buddhist Shakuhachi.
Dr. Yun was professor of choirs and voice at Southern Utah University in Cedar City, Utah and Director of Choral Studies at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. before immigrating to Canada in 2006. He teaches music courses and conducts choirs at Conrad Grebel University College and Wilfrid Laurier University. He is also instructor of shakuhachi at York University. Dr. Yun serves as Artistic Director of the East-West Music Series, a joint project between Renison and Conrad Grebel Colleges at the University of Waterloo, and The Bell'Arte Singers in Toronto, Ontario. He has received commissions for original compositions from ensembles including The DaCapo Chamber Choir, The Utah All-State Choirs, The Hamilton Children's Choir, and the Madawaska String Quartet.
Dr. Yun is currently in demand as a clinician, guest conductor, and adjudicator across North America.

Chinese researchers have tracked the "exceptionally well-preserved fossils" to the Middle Triassic of China (235-242 million years ago).
The Triassic period saw the re-establishment of ecosystems after the Permian mass extinction.
The fossils represent new evidence that marine ecosystems re-established more quickly than previously thought.
The Permian mass extinction had a bigger impact on the earth's ecological systems than any other mass extinction, wiping out 90-95% of marine species.
Previous studies have suggested that Triassic marine life developed more quickly than was once thought and that marine ecosystems were re-established more rapidly than terrestrial ecosystems.
The new research, published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B journal, was carried out by scientists from Peking University, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Zhejiang Museum of Natural History.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – A home near the Tennessee State University campus was destroyed by fire Thursday morning.
Flames were visible when firefighters got on the scene around 7:30 a.m. in the 3900 block of Geneva Circle, off 35th Avenue North.
Sky 5 HD showed heavy smoke and flames from the two-story house. Fire crews said no one was at home when the fire started, so no injuries were reported.
Two dogs were inside the home when the fire broke out; one was rescued by firefighters, but the other perished in the fire.
Investigators believed the fire started in an upstairs bedroom.
The fire does not appear suspicious, according to fire crews, but the Fire Marshal will investigate the cause.
