What are the benefits of membership?
Hi All,
I'm about 6 months pregnant and was recently heard some women at my prenatal exercise class talking about cloth diapers. Other than the obvious environmental benefits, what other benefits are there to using cloth diapers? Does anyone have any experience to share? Do they make a "hybrid" diaper (i.e. a cloth one with removable inserts)?
Any input is appreciated!
I just ordered the bum genius flips. they ar a diaper cover with a washable insert
You might want to check Craigslist for cloth diapering supplies...all babies are different shapes and a lot of people have to try a few different kinds before they find the right ones. If you can get the covers used (make sure they don't smell), then you can try out a bunch of different kinds cheaper. Also, some people sell unused g diaper inserts because they found they didn't work for their baby.
There have been a few studies about the environmental impact of cloth vs. disposable. While disposables end up in landfills, flushables end up in your septic or sewer, and cloth can use a lot of water, detergent etc. I chose disposables even though I otherwise choose the most environmentally friendly way possible. I know a lot of people who cloth diaper, but decided to use disposables for the first month or 2 because doing extra laundry when you're already sleep deprived can feel totally overwhelming!
I have been a user of GDiapers they are AWESOME! They have two different inserts to pick from one washable to use at home the other is disposable to use everywhere else and cool thing about disposable they decompose into soil so go ahead and through them into your back yard, they are also flushable so through them into the toilet it will not damage the septic system. They have them available in the hottest colors and patterns and sizes starting in NB. My honey jar was super tiny when she was born and after using huggies she had a major diaper rash as soon as i started using G i forgot all about diaper rashes :)
I've been using cloth diapers since my daughter was born in November, 2008, and continue to use them with my son who was born July 19, 2010. I use the old fashioned Gerber cloth diapers with the Gerber waterproof pants. I do use the Kushies liners. Since we have a HE washer, the use of water and detergent is minimal and we've been able to save at least $1000 a year in disposable diaper costs. I've also noticed that my kids had very few problems with diaper rash, maybe because of no chemicals? My daughter is now potty training and we use the Gerber cloth training pants with the waterproof pants over.

UC campuses, labs and medical facilities are among the greenest of any university in the country, driven by a groundbreaking Policy on Sustainable Practices that was implemented in 2004. Among the policy's achievements:
- Goals by 2020 (which UC is on track to meet) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 50 percent, to make 20 percent of its food purchases sustainable and to send zero waste to landfills.
- 93 U.S. Green Building Council LEED-certified facilities, the most of any university in the country.
- Investments in energy efficiency and conservation that have cut costs by $32 million annually.
"UC is committed to being a sustainability leader and will continue to seek innovative solutions for reducing energy use and cutting greenhouse gas emissions on our campuses," said Nathan Brostrom, UC's executive vice president for business operations. "The Climate Leadership Award is a testament to the hard work of our students, staff and faculty, who are making UC the greenest university in the country."

Ah, Karen.... too many years ago I picked a huge towering thunderhead shaped like a horses head and front legs rearing up - for an all too similar reason - We don't have those kinds of Thunderheads in this part of the country - but every once in a while I'll catch a glimse of a big storm cell forming and it all comes back to me ...

Our Aunt Lib, not our first level Aunt (?? Dad - need your help on the family relations here!) was a tiny older woman who lived on a big old house in West Virginia. Getting to her house was always exciting. My father always liked nice cars and driving in "wooly wonderful" West Virginia is a treat for driving enthusiasts - great views, windy, curvy, crazy roads through mountains, and few cops. My father was always an excellent driver, really understanding the feel of the car on the road and how much it could handle - a trait he passed on to my brother (and us girls to a lesser extent). Driving to go visit her was always exciting. My dad would drive the windy roads and take the curves super fast. It felt like being on a roller coaster! I think my mom just gripped the door and prayed. You have to cross over a big (well at least it seemed big to a kid) steel, ugly bridge to cross into WVA into Charleston, then drive another hour or so into the state in the mountains. Aunt Lib had a dog named Pepper. He was a short, fat, squat little thing with brown and black hair. We loved that mutt. He would waddle around behind us everywhere we went. Aunt Lib's house was wonderful. It was always perfectly clean, lots of older era type things (lace doilies, tassles on the lamps) but full of things kids would find interesting too - hologram cards, board games, and lots of outdoor stuff to play with, especially in the barn.Her house had a huge yard, big porch with swings where people would congregate in nice weather most often. The kitchen was actually kind of small, which looking back was strange b/c they spent an awful lot of time in it. Lots of good smells would come from there. Deer would often come into the yard (to destroy the garden!) but they were fun to watch out for. They really do freeze in the light so we'd try to wait up at night to try to catch them. Aunt Lib was always very, very gentle and kind. I can't remember ever hearing her talk negatively about anyone, although we were usually running around, not participating in the adult conversations. The big barn behind the house was fun to explore. We'd crawl up into the eaves. My brother was the only one dumb brave enough to jump into the old hay. There definitely were some characters living in West Virginia, but most of the people we met through Aunt Lib were good, solid people working the land and making a living. They all seemed to just pitch in whenever someone had any trouble and help each other out. You'd wave to everyone, whether you knew them or not. Everyone was friendly. And EVERYone there had a gun or three or five. A lot of hunting takes place there, which I hated. (that's another story.)One thing that always surprised me was how expensive the basics were there such as gas and food. I thought that since it was one of the poorest states in the United States, things would be cheaper. But that's not how it works. I remember our Grandma Arlis explaining that things had to be trucked in so far, for few people, that it drove the prices up. Many people had farms to supplement with fresh fruits & vegetables, which they'd grow in the summer and can for the winter.I remember one time Aunt Lib trying to teach us how to can goods. She was also making jelly or jam. I remember my jaw dropping when I saw that entire bag of sugar go into the pot! I think we got too impatient though because I don't remember sticking around for the entire process.
Aunt Lib also had this little garden house that always smelled like worms and dirt. She didn't like Pepper going in there because he'd get dirty. We'd go in there - where she did most of her seedling planting and canning - and play "house" in it. Going to sleep in this old house was really comforting. The wind would blow a breeze through the house for most of the day, with the curtains moving gently. At night the old radiators would start their clanking and creaking and seem to be calling to each other from various parts of the house. It really seemed as though the house would settle down into itself for the night. I think we never slept better than in her big old warm beds. Aunt Lib died many years ago; I think when I was in college in the early 90's. But I vividly remember her curly hair and big smile for everyone.

Comment posted on Scottish Power Renewables announces another delay for proposed Tiree Array by Karl Hughes
"My bet is that the offshore renewables revolution will largely pass Argyll by, like so much else". Like so much else ? do you wish to expand ?
Karl Hughes also commented
- Thanks Tim…I like concise information and this hits the nail on the head. Yes Tilley is generating cash for the island and projects on the island…
Nutshell: I take it what you mean is that you would prefer the contractual arrangement between the owners of Tilley and local consumers to be direct, rather than going through an electricity supply company.
Correct this is what I would have liked to see…
the bit about "but it would have to compete with the other suppliers in the market presumably". gets up my nose as this is the point at which the venture moves over into the realms of cash generation for middle men.
As you can probably gather…economics are not my strong point…hopefully the environment and people is..
Thanks again.
- Hi, these are my personal views….I am sorry if you get negative or indeed harsh retort regarding your views on Tilley…I get fair few myself because of my views on the Tiree Array. Always feel free to say high when I am home… we can chat.
I support community renewables for one reason…and I hope at sometime legislation and finance will allow this to happen in regards to Tilley. That the initial electricity generated is not sold into the grid and that the energy is consumed locally.
Surplus energy is a different matter and this could feasibly over a short distance (Coll?) be exported this is unfortunatelly not the case on Tiree "at the moment"
Eigg is a better example of an independent system.
I do not agree with multi-national companies developing huge windfarms for cash revenue…this is not a noble quest to reduce CO2 output…this is the generation of cash for shareholders…look at Iberdrolas profit margins…it is immoral and pushes people into fuel poverty..
I would rather Tilley had never arrived on Tiree for a use other than local generation….and I wish Tiree would make true use of a good thing for "all" the folk who live on our isle…maybe this will happen sometime ? what happened when the export cable was down for "X" amount of months ?
Tilley kept turning and generating "0″…insurance was paid…who covers that insurance ?…the electricity should have been used on the Island.
- Or on that basis 150 000 000 GBP to decommission Argyll aka Tiree array (@1Gw) ?
150000 x 1000 ? am I wrong ?
- WATCH THIS SPACE there is a storm coming.
- Square peg round hole springs to mind !

The fact is H2O, Scotland needs immigrants, people from the " colors of humanity" English folk like me make up about half a million of the Scottish population and then there are others from around the globe…about 1.2 persons to every 250 in Scotland was not born in Scotland….it needs to be more to maintain the population…
I don't actually care on which way folk intend to vote in the Indy Ref…as long as they are aware of all the pro's and con's of either argument…and that these are presented in a non racist, non-political, objective and truthfull manner…I have enough confidence in our democracy to know the outcome will eventually be correct…
I will just add that you fail on all four of the previous points…and the sad thing for you is that you don't even see it.

The Great Doors of Holy Trinity Episcopal Church
June 16, 2009
The Great Doors of Holy Trinity Episcopal Church in Fayetteville, North Carolina seek to reveal Christian faith within a liturgical framework. The ordering of the images and their setting integrates iconography with the larger environment.
The parish committee and pastor proposed twelve biblical themes that in some way reveal the Trinity. I first organized the subjects systematically and then, considering the interplay between doors and viewer, designed the images. The viewer was considered a participant in the experience of entering; thus, interaction between image and people was essential.
Theological Concepts
Rather than follow an historical sequence or traditional typology, each section represents a specific theme. The way a person encounters the images influenced the organization and themes presented. The outward theme draws people into the space, while the inward theme speaks to those being sent forth. These themes are further refined in each section.
Outside Doors
The left theme is of hospitality and welcoming. Beginning at the bottom, Abraham welcomes the Three Visitors and is blessed with a son. That blessing foreshadows humanity being blessed at the Nativity with the Son, who is also Redeemer. Hospitality again plays a role as "there was no room for them at the inn." The Child is offered gifts by the Magi. Finally, the Child of the Nativity feeds his people by multiplying loaves and fishes.
The right section represents moments of encounter with God and transformation. Moses encounters the burning bush and is transformed into a liberating leader. Encountering the Cross transforms and liberates the believer from sin and death. The Risen Christ (Pantocrator) transforms all of creation.
The Divine Name is also revealed. The flames of the burning bush form the Divine Name in Hebrew. Moses' hands held up in supplication are paralleled in the hands of Jesus on the Cross. Above the head of Christ is the placard inscribed "INRI" - the Latin abbreviation of "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews." Arms held in self-sacrifice and submission are transformed into the Pantocrator's arms of embrace and blessing. Greek letters abbreviate "I AM" in the halo. Thus, the Divine Name is fully revealed in the eschatological and cosmic Christ, who is God Incarnate and Redeemer of the universe.
Inside Doors
The inner doors become a portal for both entry and departure. By flanking entrance to the font, they represent passage to new life, and the Font of Life flows out into the world through the same passageway.
The left section at the top. A swash of light wood with tripartite form sweeps through the cosmos, creating nebulosities, galaxies, stars, planets, and the earth. The Fall violates the primordial character of Creation and the Prophet proclaims a redeemer. The figure represents an embodiment of those who proclaimed the prophetic message. Pointing to the Divine Name, which appears three times, the Prophet proclaims, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me" and "make straight the way of the Lord!" The Spirit of Creation envelops Mary in the Annunciation. The Creator of the Cosmos has now become one with Creation in the Incarnation.
These themes lead naturally to the font where the believer is reborn -- recreated -- as a Child of God; thus, the original character of humanity is restored.
The right section, flowing from bottom to top, recalls three "sacramental" events of the New Testament. Christ is baptized in the Jordan by John, a foreshadowing of Christian Baptism by which believers are reborn. Christ is also revealed as Son and begins his public ministry. In the Lord's Supper, the Greek words from John 6:52 reveal Christ as the Bread of Life. Finally, the Paraclete is sent as Comforter and as a source of strength to proclaim the Gospel "even to the ends of the earth." The Descent of the Holy Spirit parallels primordial Creation and the Church goes forth to "renew the face of the earth," thus bringing the Divine Action full circle.
Contemplative Images and Representation of Themes
The goal was to represent the subjects with a multilayered subtlety so that at each encounter the viewer could discover something new. Hopefully, the themes and their arrangement will suggest spiritual and theological insights that go beyond anything intended by the committee or artist.

Historical (view previous versions of standard)
Significance and Use
This guide is intended as a general guide to the correct use of foams. Specific decisions on when or if foam should be used will depend on the circumstances and conditions of each spill situation.
Polar solvent resistant AFFF can be applied to some water reactive chemicals with a medium expansion foam nozzle to extinguish a fire and to reduce toxic vapor release to the environment.
1. Scope
1.1 This guide restricts itself to addressing the application of foam to water immiscible liquid and some water reactive compounds with boiling points above 15°C for vapor control or fire suppression of land spill or contained spills on water.
1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

The fall that left Williams sidelined for the game has ended up sidelining her for the remainder of the season with a torn ACL. With one of the best talents left cheering instead of dazzling on the hardwood, the Raiders were left with a huge void to fill.
"When we lost her, we weren't just losing a player," Reed junior forward Tina Vernon said. "We also lost that leadership that was on the court. Since then, we've really had to come together and get it together as a team. Everyone works hard and tries to do what is best for the team. We've come together as a unit."
The immediate question that faced the Lady Raiders was how they would replace the role that Williams played as the spark plug for both the offense and defense. Instead of one player trying to step into Williams' shoes though, it has been a collective effort for Reed.
"When it first happened, I panicked for a little bit, but after that everyone came together as a team," Reed junior guard Brooke Cervantes said. "We've really started working together. We're not relying so much on one player now. It's a lot harder, but we're also a lot more serious. If we work at it and do our jobs together, we'll be fine. I think we can still win."
When the Raiders lost Williams, they also lost her 24.3 points per game, as well as her end-to-end defensive presence. With Williams accounting for 33.8 percent of Reed's points through its first nine High Desert League contests, the Raiders averaged 72 points a game while holding opponents to 38. Although the offensive numbers have dwindled for Reed since the Reno game, with the Raiders averaging 56.7 points a contest, the defensive numbers are close to the same with teams scoring 37.3 points on average against the Raiders. However, the largest area of growth for RHS has been learning how to win without its leader.
"Honestly, I think the biggest improvement we've made is just winning," Vernon said. "People thought that Reed High School was Gabby with a team behind her, but now people see what we're capable of without Gabby. We may not blow teams out, but we do earn our wins."
From the time Williams suffered her injury, the Raiders have won five of six games en route to the HDL's No. 2 seed. Now with the playoffs set to open on Wednesday, the biggest test for Reed awaits as it tries to defend its state crown.
"They're all good players. They just need the confidence and so hopefully that light bulb has gone off that they can do this," Reed girls basketball coach Sara Schopper-Ramirez said. "They've shown that they can do this. I think we're going to surprise people because I think people will count us out. We have gamers on the floor. I think we're right there. I'm hoping they find that fire inside. Obviously the game plan has changed, but we still have the same goal."
With the Sierra League's No. 3 seed Douglas presenting Reed its first postseason obstacle, the Raiders are ready to yet again prove themselves.
"I think that we've shown that we can still win without Gabby, but it's tougher," Reed junior guard Tyler Sumpter said. "We can still win without her. I think that's proving teams shouldn't take us for granted without her because we're not out of the running."

Crumbled chorizo, a splash of sherry vinegar and chopped piquant peppers add Spanish flair to the classic deviled egg. Serve as an hors d'oeuvre, or enjoy a few with a simple mixed salad for a light lunch.
1 dozen large eggs (hard cooked-boiled)4 ounces packaged Spanish chorizo sausage, finely chopped (I omit this)1 tablespoon finely chopped flat-leaf parsley, more for garnish ( I like cilantro)1/4 cup seeded, finely diced roasted red peppers, such as piquillo (I use salsa put through a small blender)1 tablespoon sherry vinegar 3 tablespoons Miracle Whip 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 2 tablespoons cold water Salt and pepper to taste
Place eggs in a pot large enough to hold them all in a single layer. Cover by 3 inches of cold water and place on the stovetop over high heat. Once the water starts simmering briskly, reduce heat to medium high and cook for 12 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer eggs to a bowl of ice-cold water. Let cool for 5 or 10 minutes, then peel. Slice eggs lengthwise. Remove yolks and place them in a medium bowl. Arrange egg white halves on a rimmed baking sheet. To prepare the filling, cook chorizo in a cold skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes, until crisp. Meanwhile, add parsley, red peppers (salsa), vinegar, miracle whip, mustard and water to yolks. Mash to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Use two small spoons to scoop filling into egg white halves. When ready to serve, sprinkle eggs with warm chorizo and chopped parsley. Serve immediately.I tweaked this recipe to my own taste as we don't care for the chorizo. I also have used wine vineagar in place of the sherry.Enjoy!

Schoenberg and the Classical Revolution
Saturday, December 21, 2002
The beginning of the 20th century was an era of revolution, and that's true too of classical music. Twentieth-century composition went through a gigantic harmonic shift, and Arnold Schoenberg was at the heart of it.

Antique Turquoise Day Night Earrings
The earrings described herein are an exceptional example of how even jewelry was party to the poetry and symbolism rampant during the Victorian era. The likeness of the Scottish bluebell flower is perfectly rendered in this pair of 10k yellow gold pendant drop day night earrings from the early or Romantic Victorian era (mid 19th century).
In the language of flowers the bluebell represented delicacy and kindness and these earrings generate feelings which clearly reflect those sentiments. Turquoise cabochons, forty in each earring are pavé set upon and within bell-shaped flowers of yellow gold. On the bell three (3) tiny seed pearls of tears grace the top. Delicately rendered, engraved and textured leaves and stems of gold languidly drape over the blossom.
A gold bezel set with a cabochon turquoise accents the "stem" of the flower which can be worn separately from the pendant drop. Please note that the earrings are not duplicates but are worn as right and left – a technique often seen in 18th and 19th century earrings which indicate the craftsmanship inherent in the design.
Date: Circa 1860.
Measurements: 1-3/4 inches (4.4 cm) in length by 11/16 of an inch (1.8 cm) in width. Weight of 9.1 grams (5.9 dwt) for the pair.
Condition: Excellent.

With some business to attend to this afternoon, this is going to be a particularly headline-heavy day. Let's get started…
1. Not all SEC schools and coaches are A-OK with Thursday night games. UPDATE — Here's a lengthier piece, same topic.
2. Receiver Duron Carter remains on Alabama's scout team and there's "no new information to report" regarding his eligibility.
3. Bama's running backs provide a balanced attack.
4.. Don't expect Nick Saban to get too funky with the Crimson Tide's uniforms. (Even last year's Nike Pro Combat unis were tame by Nike standards.)
5. Even after a 2-0 start, Auburn's schedule presents a big challenge.
6. The Tiger D will continue to feature a deep rotation of players.
7. Arkansas wants to force more turnovers.
8. Brandon Mitchell has proven himself to be a capable backup to quarterback Tyler Wilson.
9. Drop-back passer Zach Stoudt and dual-threat Randall Mackey will both play for Ole Miss against Vandy on Saturday. (No surprise, seeing as how UM has used five different QB in the last two years.)
10. Mackey has pled not guilty to charges of disorderly conduct stemming from an August 23rd bar fight.
11. The Rebel secondary is taking a simpler approach this year.
12. Mississippi State is breaking ground on its new football complex today.
13. Tony Barnhart poses five questions heading into this week's SEC action.

The gradual creeping up of the scale and increasing trouble buttoning your jeans may seem as if it's come out of nowhere, but chances are, one of these cold weather problems is to blame. By Ava Feuer, REDBOOK.
You're programmed from thousands of years of history
When humans were hunter-gatherers, it was necessary to pack on weight for long, hard winters when food was less readily available. "When we were foraging, skinny people were less likely to make it through the winter," says Dr. Lawrence Cheskin, Director of the Johns Hopkins Weight Management Center and Professor at the Bloomberg School of Public Health. "There was a survival tactic of gaining weight in and before it." We still try to conserve energy when it's cold because it's our natural way to avoid burning more calories than necessary. However, given modern living conditions, stocking up on food is more likely to add a clothing size than it is to keep us alive until spring.
Related: Date-Night Dresses Under $100
You got off track during the holidays
Winter begins with Thanksgiving, Hanukah, Christmas, New Year's, and a slew of events involving more buffets, hors d'oeuvres and alcohol than you'd normally be exposed to. If, like most of us, you overindulged on these special days, you may have fallen into what psychologists call "all or nothing thinking." Instead of acknowledging that it was a bad health day, and tomorrow will be better, many people assume that once they've made one mistake, they may as well continue the pattern. "It may take until the spring for people to get back on track in terms of what they'd like to be doing in terms of health and fitness," says Dr. Cheskin.
You're watching more TV
The possibility of going out - whether to dinner, a movie, or to meet friends - is so much less appealing when the thermometer drops below freezing. Come winter, you're probably at home more often, and spending an increasing number of nights marathoning Homeland or catching up on movies you missed. Numerous studies have associated TV-watching with weight gain, largely due to mindless eating. So avoid bringing the entire bag of popcorn to the couch with you, and instead portion out a few cups into a bowl. Having to walk to the kitchen for a refill will add intention to your munching.

You're exercising less
There's truth to the saying,"February is the cruelest month," according to Payal Kadakia, Founder and CEO of Classtivity, an online platform that helps people find and register for new workout classes. The site found that class providers report the highest attendance at the beginning of the year and in the fall, with the least number of people showing up in February. "People have lost their New Year's resolution motivation, and summer is too far away to think about a bikini-body," says Kadakia. But, this in-between time is actually the ideal moment to try a new fitness routine, and see if it works for you. From Wu Tao - an Asian dance-based practice - to acrobatic Cirque de Pole, you're bound to find a quirky workout you love.
The weather's got you down
There's nothing like waking up to bright sunshine and slipping on a pair of shorts - something that isn't happening right about now. Even on nice days, the sun is out for fewer hours, and walking out of your office to pitch-black skies at 5 p.m. is no fun. "The hypothesis is that we might eat more when we're not as happy or invigorated, and sunlight is a mood enhancer," says Dr. Cheskin. You're especially likely to reach for carbs when you're feeling down, which wake you up with quickly metabolized calories - but hold up before you eat that sandwich. "You're getting calories that make you alert, make you feel good, and are gone an-hour-and-a-half later, at which point you feel hungry again," says Cheskin.

Fresh produce is harder to find
If there are no great strawberries around, you may replace naturally sweet fruits with baked goods. Fresh foods, particularly fruits, are less available in the winter, and when you can find them, they're usually imported from South America, and more expensive. However, eating in-season veggies - in the winter, try squash, parsnips, Brussels sprouts - is especially beneficial. Since the produce has just become fully ripe, it packs the most nutrients.

Irresponsible Journalism and Kim Chi
Sometimes I get tired of reading the misleading headlines of "Food & Health" stories. For example:
Study shows Kimchi can prevent food poisoning
Kim chee may prevent food poisoning
Not only are these headlines misleading, they're dangerous.
The only thing these studies show is that certain food-based pathogens cannot survive within fermented kimchi. What it does not say is that "Kim Chi can inoculate you against these same pathogens". What this means is the following:
Point 1:
If you eat Kim Chi, it will most likely not have the salmonella, staphylococcus, vibrio germs and E.coli bacteria.
Point 2:
However, if you eat Kim Chi, and then consume another dish that does have the salmonella, staphylococcus, vibrio germs or E.coli, you still have the chance of getting violently, if not deathly ill.
Until someone runs an acceptable study that disproves Point 2, then the Press should really be more careful in what they say and how they say it. Then again, I'd like world peace and to end world hunger.
To illustrate my point, let me state the following for you to ponder:
Guess what other products are likely not have the salmonella, staphylococcus, vibrio germs and E.coli bacteria?
Gin, Vodka, Whiskey, etc, etc. This leads to the question, why doesn't the Food & Health press extol these as cures?
And yes, I've read this article which alludes to the health benefits of the Lactobacillus bacteria. Note the sentence "The researchers said the results were far from scientifically proven".

Summary of The Tao of Wu Summary of The Tao of Wu Reviews for The Tao of Wu An Excerpt from The Tao of Wu
The RZA, founder of the Wu-Tang Clan, imparts the lessons he's learned on his journey from the Staten Island projects to international superstardom. A devout student of knowledge in every form in which he's found it, he distills here the wisdom he's acquired into seven "pillars," each based on a formative event in his life-from the moment he first heard the call of hip-hop to the death of his cousin and Clan- mate, Russell Jones, aka ODB. Delivered in RZA's unmistakable style, at once surprising, profound, and provocative, The Tao of Wu is a spiritual memoir the world has never seen before, and will never see again. A nonfiction Siddhartha for the hip-hop generation, it will enlighten, entertain, and inspire.

NewsPress Release: 3/6/02Marlboro College Holds Freeze on Tuition for Fourth ConsecutiveYear
MARLBORO, VERMONT -- Despite state and national trends, tuition and fees at Marlboro College have remained the same since 1998. In 1998, Marlboro cut the cost of tuition and fees by $1,400 from $20,960 to $19,560 and has held that amount steady ever since. In addition, the amount for room and board has remained flat since 1998.
According to the College Board, over the past five academic years, tuitions at private four-year colleges in the United States of America have gone up by 24 percent in current dollars and room and board figures are up by 17 percent. "While other schools have been raising costs at alarming rates, Marlboro has really concentrated on making a high-quality education affordable by cutting tuition and then holding the line year after year," says Julie Richardson, vice president for enrollment and financial aid. She continues, "Marlboro doesn't consider financial need when making decisions about whom to admit. Once accepted, we meet the full, demonstrated financial need of our students. This makes Marlboro affordable for low and middle-income families. Eighty-five percent of our students receive financial aid totaling over $5 million in assistance a year."
When asked about college tuitions in the state, Senator Peter Shumlin, president pro-tem of the Vermont Senate, comments, "Marlboro College has shown extraordinary leadership and sensitivity to middle income students struggling to pay for higher education by freezing tuition. I hope that other institutions as visionary as Marlboro will show similar vision in the future."
"What makes this news even more wonderful," according to Dean of Faculty John Hayes, "is that, at the same time, we have been able to continue strengthening the institution through increasing the endowment and building new facilities." Since 1996, Marlboro has grown its endowment from $1 million to $15 million and is in the midst of a major campus renovation project, which includes breaking ground this spring on an addition to the library that will double its size.
Founded in 1946, Marlboro College offers undergraduate education in the liberal arts and, since 1997, graduate study focused on Internet technologies. Its 300 undergraduate students enjoy a 7:1 student-faculty ratio, a voice in governing the community, and individualized courses of study on a 350-acre campus in the hills of southern Vermont. Marlboro's nearby Brattleboro-based Persons School features four masterđs degree programs -- Systems Integration Management, Internet Strategy Management, Teaching with Internet Technologies, and Internet Engineering. The Brattleboro campus is located in the Marlboro College Technology Center, which brings together education and entrepreneurship, while offering technology resources to the community.

I believe I kept adding and tweaking the purple costume before I saw what Polaris looked like in the space one. I like the purple one because it goes so well with her hair color.
Polaris is mutant royalty, Magneto has named her as his heir, and she's practically a female Magneto, power-wise. Imagine having her on your team. She's a force of nature.
I believe I read somewhere that she's got more raw power than Magneto, only he is more skillful.

Green business? Not without self-interest
Professor Magali Delmas knows you probably don't care about electric utility regulation. But does organic wine or fair-trade coffee tickle your taste buds?
Professor Magali Delmas.
That could help Delmas, a management professor with the Institute of the Environment (IOE), choose the direction of her next research project.
"I've been researching electric utilities for years and looking into why they invest in renewable energy, and realized that the same issues apply to other sectors, such as wine and coffee. Also, when you talk about wine or coffee, people light up. So now I can talk about my research at dinner parties," Delmas said half-jokingly.
"What could I do next?" she teased. "I could do olives. Or organic beer."
Delmas, director of UCLA's new research center, the
Center for Corporate Environmental Performance
, studies how green products are marketed and what works. She's fascinated by what convinces consumers to buy eco-friendly products, why businesses decide to go green, and how both sides can get on the go-green bandwagon. One of the things she's learned is that environmentalism isn't enough to drive purchases.
"People don't buy things to help the environment. They buy it for themselves," she said. People don't buy organic tomatoes for their lack of pesticides and Earth-friendly rep, but because the tomatoes taste better and are healthier, she said. Similarly, the hybrid Prius automobile isn't about responsibility, but about gas bills and trendiness.
"The Prius is a status symbol. It's become a way of showing off your greenness," she said. "If you drive by a parking lot in Brentwood, you see
Mercedes, BMWs and Priuses
, like they're part of the same club. Some people are buying for the environment, and we all have our altruistic side, but it doesn't affect more than a small percentage of the market."
Her conclusions aren't based on idle observation, but on serious research. She loves to find out why and how people respond to the opportunity to buy green. She does applied research about, and sometimes with, companies, such as her recent foray into the world of "green" wine. She found people actually pay less for wine with eco-labels.
Can you tell what all these green labels mean? Delmas found although companies use these labels to get out information about their products, most people don't recognize or trust many of the images.
"It reduced the price 20 percent," Delmas said. "Buyers assumed it would be a lower-quality wine. They associate it with hippie wine."
But wine-makers still slap eco-labels on bottles of their better wine. The confusion lies in the misunderstanding between fully organic wine and wine made from organic grapes. Organic wine-makers skip additives that are normally used during the fermenting process, affecting the taste. Wine from organic grapes simply comes from "better grapes," and follows tried-and-true fermenting methods, Delmas explained.
Her clients tried to escape organic's negative connotations, but missed the mark entirely when they chose to describe their wine as "biodynamic," because people didn't understand or trust it, Delmas said.
"In our study, 77 percent of the people who hadn't heard of 'biodynamic' products assumed it was bio-engineered or sci-fi," Delmas said.
One of her overarching ideas in all of the industries she studies is that companies need better ways of showing consumers useful information. She and her students are working with a company building a website called
that will help provide details about how green companies and their products really are.
"When there's an eco-label or other environmental claim, people need to recognize the meaning and trust the source before they're willing to pay," she said. But that, combined with self-interest, are ongoing barriers to green purchasing, she added.
There are four main reasons why most people buy green: to show off (think the Prius), to improve their health (organic produce), for a superior product or to save money.
"All of these are pretty independent from the environment. It's depressing, but true," she said. "People won't pay more for a worse product. They've been there with recycled toilet paper and paper towels. You have to appeal to their self-interest."
A company needs three things, she added: a reliable measurement that it or its product is better, a way to communicate that measurement and incentives for people to buy the green product.
In her studies of electric utilities, she found that people were rarely willing to pay more for wind- or sun-generated power. "Regular power works just as well, and you can't show off how green your power is," she said. In the auto-parts industry, when the Big Three automakers asked that their parts suppliers get a special environmental certification by 2003, Delmas and fellow management Professor Ivan Montiel found that only a quarter of the suppliers complied.
The story is the same with organic coffee – few people buy it because they don't understand or trust the profusion of "fair-trade," "bird-friendly" and "Rainforest Alliance Certified" labels – but she's interested in seeing whether that can change.
With her IOE colleague Professor Matthew Kahn, economics doctoral student Neil Lessem and her Center for Corporate Environmental Performance, she intends to find out how to boost buying of eco-joe through an experiment she's developing for a coffee vendor.
If you buy fair-trade coffee, maybe you could show that off with a distinctive-looking coffee cup with a nice logo. "Will that be a status thing, like the Prius?" she asked. "Or will we have to charge less?"

text: Try not to listen to advice to buy a new bladder tank. Your tank is fine, it just needs some air. Open a low tap with the pump off and drain most of the water in the tank. Open any valve up the side of the tank if possible to allow air in. Close it up and turn on the pump and you are back in business. You probably have a device to get air into the tank that is not working any longer. Dial 911 only when the tank squirts water at you through a seam. Sears has a nice glass-lined tank for around 200$ for the day your tank really dies. If you are handy, an air compressor is a easy way to put the air cushion back in.

- Health Notes
Fast Facts on "Fat Burners"Fast Facts on "Fat Burners"Fat burners encourage the body to use stored fat for energy, decrease the rate at which excess calories are turned into body fat, or enhance metabolism
While there isn't a standard definition for the phrase "fat burner," diet experts generally agree these are substances that
- encourage the body to use stored fat for energy,
- decrease the rate at which excess calories are turned into body fat, or
- enhance metabolism-the rate at which the body burns calories.
Products or foods that suppress appetite or promote a feeling of fullness, such as fiber, are not true fat burners, though they may be labeled that way, and still may be useful aids to weight loss.
Tried and true
Several dietary supplements and natural substances have been studied for their fat-burning effects, including:
Green tea. Research has shown green tea supplements can promote modest weight loss-a few pounds in short-term studies of up to 12 weeks, when compared to placebo-and may help prevent weight regain. Catechins, one component of green tea, appear to have a variety of fat-burning effects, including increasing metabolism and the use of fat for fuel, and decreasing the rate at which body fat is created and stored. Green tea has a good track record of safe use.
Capsaicin. Capsaicin is the spicy-hot component of red chili peppers, and one randomized trial found that people lost twice the weight taking capsaicin compared with a placebo, over a 12-week period. The total effect was small, however: the capsaicin group lost about 2 pounds compared to a 1-pound loss in the placebo group. Capsaicin appears to increase metabolism, and supplements of up to 6 grams of capsaicin per day are considered safe and are well tolerated by most people.
L-carnitine. Our bodies make and use L-carnitine to transport fat within cells, so that the fat can be burned for energy. Studies support that L-carnitine supplements improve fat burning in the body, but clinical trials have yet to show a weight-loss benefit in obese people. L-carnitine may be useful for improving athletic performance, however, and up to 3 grams per day is considered safe.
New kids on the block
Raspberry ketones. When given to mice on a high-fat, high-calorie diet, raspberry ketones protected against excess weight gain and fat accumulation in the liver. Mice aren't people, however, so keep an eye out for future research, which should clarify what kind of effects raspberry ketones may have for weight-loss in people.
Bitter orange (Citrus aurantium). This product became more popular after the 2004 FDA ban on ephedra supplements. Bitter orange has effects similar to ephedra, including increasing metabolism, blood pressure, and heart rate, which can translate into weight loss. While bitter orange appears to be safe for short-term use-weeks, not months-in healthy adults, it also may have similar adverse effects as ephedra, so use it with caution if you have underlying health issues, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, or diabetes.
Thermogenics. Thermogenics refers to a broad category of substances that cause the body to produce heat through increased metabolism. Examples include fucoxanthin, a supplement derived from brown seaweed, and 7-KETO DHEA, a manufactured hormone that is related to, though not the same as, the naturally occurring human hormone DHEA. Even caffeine and green tea are considered to have some thermogenic action in the body. As with many fat-burning supplements, thermogenics can be safe for short-term use in healthy adults. However, if you have underlying health issues, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, or diabetes, you may need to steer clear of thermogenic weight-loss products.
Other ways to fight the fat
Fat burners may be worth a try, but if you have a pre-existing medical issue, such as diabetes, high cholesterol, kidney or liver disease, high blood pressure, or heart disease, check with your doctor before trying these products. And regardless of whether or not you add a fat burner to your weight management plan, there are many other steps you can take to kick start your metabolism and nudge the number on the scale in the desired direction.
Water. You may have heard it before, but it bears repeating: staying well hydrated can help with fat loss. Aim for 64 ounces of water per day and you'll likely feel better and may be less tempted to snack mindlessly. Other noncaloric options such as hot or iced tea or sparkling water count too.
Fiber. Fiber-from food and supplements-may be helpful to weight-loss efforts. Fiber will fill you up and has other health benefits too, such as lowering cholesterol. Focus on fiber-rich foods, such as whole grains and raw vegetables and fruit, and slowly add a fiber supplement, such as psyllium or inulin-a type of fiber which comes from chicory root-if desired. Don't forget the water, which your body needs to process the extra roughage.
Effective exercise. High-intensity interval training can burn lots of calories quickly. This kind of exercise involves going all out-so you're breathing hard enough that talking is difficult-for a short time, such as 30 to 60 seconds, followed by a minute or two of lower-intensity activity to recover. The cycle is repeated up to 10 times for a 20-minute workout. Alternate these workouts with regular physical activity throughout the week, and as your fitness improves, you can increase the high-intensity portion of the workout, and decrease the active rest period. If you aren't exercising regularly already, talk to your doctor before starting a high-intensity interval training workout plan.Suzanne Dixon, MPH, MS, RD, an author, speaker, and internationally recognized expert in chronic disease prevention, epidemiology, and nutrition, has taught medical, nursing, public health, and alternative medicine coursework.

If I did not "burn" off the pills, I felt sick all day long. It did not help me burn fat, did not give me an energy boost, and made me feel sick. I will not buy this every again or suggest it to someone to use.

Comments about GERMAN AMERICAN TECH GAT™ Jetfuel™:
I'm married to an ex professional Female Bodybuilder, so staying in shape is important. Since my first marriage and having a kid, I have always teeter tottered with my weight. Nothing seemed to work for me, so I tried Jet Fuel. WOW, this stuff works, and quick. After taking them for only a week, "as the label says too" people started telling me that I looked like I was losing weight. I didn't notice it til the second week, then stepped on a scale, I knew then, when it said I had lost 10lbs, that this stuff was awesome. It doesn't speed your heart up like the Oxy Elite Pro that I tried, or at least doesn't make your heart feel like it's jumping out of your chest. BUT, it makes you sweat like crazy, gives you killer energy, and helps in your work outs when you think you have nothing left in you. I love this stuff!

Sewers and tailors sew, join, reinforce, or finish clothing or other items. They may create new pieces of clothing from patterns and designs or alter existing garments to fit customers better. They work for textile and apparel manufacturers, department stores, and drycleaners. Many are self-employed.
Sokanu matches you to one of over 500 careers by analyzing your personality, interests, and needs in life. Take the free assessment now to see your top career recommendations!
Tailors typically do the following:
Tailors can specialize in alterations or in sewing custom garments. Those who do alterations ensure that clothes fit customers properly. They make changes to garments, such as hemming pants to make them shorter or taking in seams to make clothing smaller.
Some specialize in a certain type of garment, such as bridal gowns. Others specialize in a particular type of material, such as fur. Fur tailors may restyle older clothing, add a fur collar to a coat or a dress, or sew the inner lining of a garment to the inside of fur skin by hand.
Some tailors work with designers or customers to create new garments. They take orders from customers and help them select fabric and colors. When working with a designer, tailors help translate designs into finished pieces of clothing. For example, a couture dressmaker may work with a fashion designer to create exclusive custom-fitted clothing.
In addition to working with clothing, sewers may produce other items, such as textiles and quilts. Hand weavers produce custom-made textiles, such as placemats, napkins, and pillowcases. Hand quilters produce a bed cover or display item, traditionally composed of two layers of fabric.
Some tailors own their business. In these cases, they may do management and administrative tasks, such as managing the business's finances and taking orders.
Generally, employers do not have any formal education requirements for positions as a sewer or tailor. Some tailors take classes to learn how to sew and alter clothing, but there are few formal programs to teach students how to become a tailor. Those interested in becoming a sewer or tailor are often trained while working in a tailor shop. Some are trained through apprenticeships, in which they are hired by a tailor and receive training to help them develop the skills necessary to work as a tailor. However, formal apprenticeships are difficult to find. Most of those interested in becoming tailors find employment working with a tailor and are trained informally on the job.
Tailors work for textile and apparel manufacturers, department stores, and drycleaners. They work full time. Some work nights and weekends to accommodate customers' schedules. About 44% are self-employed. Self-employed workers may need to work longer hours to run their business and complete customer orders.
The median annual wage of tailors $12.77 in May 2010. (The median wage is the wage at which half the workers in an occupation earned more than that amount and half earned less.) The lowest 10% earned less than $8.48, and the top 10% earned more than $20.21.

Astrophotography – Jupiter
I have been taking the Celestron 130 SLT telescope out on the weekends. Like most first-timers, I am just blown away by the sights in the night sky. Everything except Jupiter and Saturn have been a bright dot or a not-so-bright dot, so no views of galaxies quite yet.
I took this picture of Jupiter, and I'm so tickled to see one of the major cloud bands.
