UK, Germany and France: Europe must cut emissions 30% to capture "low carbon economic opportunities."
In articles published simultaneously in newspapers in three countries, U.K. Energy and Climate Change Secretary Chris Huhne, Jean-Louis Borloo and Norbert Roettgen, his counterparts in France and Germany respectively, set out the economic benefits for increasing the EU's climate change targets to a 30% cut.
Here's an excerpt from one of those articles:
Europe's current focus on recovery from recession must not distract us from the question of what kind of economy we want to build. Unless we set our countries on a path to a sustainable low-carbon future, we will face continued uncertainty and significant costs from energy price volatility and a destabilising climate.
This is why we today set out our belief that the European Union should raise its emissions target. A reduction of 30 per cent from 1990 levels by 2020 would represent a real incentive for innovation and action in the international context. It would be a genuine attempt to restrict the rise in global temperatures to 2°C – the key climate danger threshold – stiffening the resolve of those already proposing ambitious action and encouraging those waiting in the wings. It would also make good business sense.
The current target of a 20 per cent reduction now seems insufficient to drive the low-carbon transition. The recession by itself has cut emissions in the EU's traded sector by 11 per cent from pre-crisis levels. Partly as a result, the price of carbon is far too low to stimulate significant investment in green jobs and technologies.
If we stick to a 20 per cent cut, Europe is likely to lose the race to compete in the low-carbon world to countries such as China, Japan or the US – all of which are looking to create a more attractive environment for low-carbon investment.
Well, "looking to" is about the best you can say about us now.
By moving to a higher target, the EU would have a direct impact on the carbon price through to 2020 and also send a strong signal of our commitment to a low-carbon policy framework in the longer term. We must not forget that building a low-carbon future depends overwhelmingly on the private sector. Moving to a 30 per cent target would provide greater certainty and predictability for investors.
Europe's companies are poised to take advantage of the new opportunities. They currently have a global market share of 22 per cent of the low-carbon goods and services sector, thanks to Europe's early leadership in tackling climate change. But the rest of the world is catching up. The Copenhagen commitments, though less ambitious than we had hoped, have triggered widespread action, notably in China, India and Japan.
Because of reduced emissions in the recession, the annual costs in 2020 of meeting the existing 20 per cent target are down a third from '¬70bn ($89bn, £59bn) to '¬48bn. A move up to 30 per cent is now estimated to cost only '¬11bn more than the original cost of achieving a 20 per cent reduction. In addition, delayed action would come with a high price tag: according to the International Energy Agency, every year of delayed investment on low-carbon energy sources costs '¬300bn to '¬400bn at the global level.
Furthermore, these costs were calculated on the conservative assumption that oil will cost $88 ('¬69, £58) a barrel in 2020. Given the current constraints on supply-side investment, rapid growth in consumption in Asia, and the impact of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, oil prices may well rise further; under one IEA scenario, the price could reach a nominal $130 a barrel. Rising oil prices would lower the costs of hitting any targets and, under some scenarios, the direct economic effects of hitting the 30 per cent target by 2020 actually turn positive….
Ducking the argument on 30 per cent will put us in the global slow lane. Early action will provide our industries with a vital head start. That is why we believe the move to 30 per cent is right for Europe. It is a policy for jobs and growth, energy security and climate risk. Most of all, it is a policy for Europe's future.

Ah, if only the debate in this country could be between 20% and 30%….
16 Responses to UK, Germany and France: Europe must cut emissions 30% to capture "low carbon economic opportunities."
"… the price of carbon is far too low … By moving to a higher target, the EU would have a direct impact on the carbon price …"
So why don't they just cut to the chase and set the carbon price at whatever level they want? (Or at least set a floor price.)
"The Copenhagen commitments, though less ambitious than we had hoped, have triggered widespread action, notably in China …"
What carbon price does China impose?
"… under one IEA scenario, the price could reach a nominal $130 a barrel …"
According to Lloyd's of London, the price could go above $200 a barrel by 2013.
Introducing a European Carbon Tax
A concrete proposal is expected in the coming weeks.
It is remarkable that each of these Ministers belong to a Conservative Party and govern within a center-right government. Climate change is non-partisan in Europe. The conservatives have understood that also to their constituents the issue is important. That is something the US conservatives should take away from this!
Germany draws up plan to tax air traffic with fee of up to $33 per passenger
Its bill says it aims to provide "incentives for environmentally friendly behavior."
Prokaryotes (Re #2): How much would Europe's carbon tax be?
As a point of reference, current oil prices ($71/barrel) equate to $157 per ton-CO2.
Unfortunately, this is but a very extreme point of view voiced by idealists of sorts that haven't gotten their governments very far (yet?).
The Sarkozy government has typically made pretenses to care about the environment several times, only to go back on all the promises in the face of low voter turnout from the green party electorate, farmers' protests and generally speaking, the recession. The Burqa issue is a more pressing one for them.
Unfortunately, I can only take such a message as one more empty gesture that will go unheeded come election time because it's not popular.
Ken Johnson, these are just some constructs, but gives an idea.
According to above letter, it could start at 20,00 € per ton of Co2.
Sweden is since 2007 at 101,00€ per ton of Co2
Ken Johnson says:
"[…]How much would Europe's carbon tax be?
As a point of reference, current oil prices ($71/barrel) equate to $157 per ton-CO2."
Remember that in Europe, whether EU or not, oil is heavily taxed.
Ken, there is post in moderation but i think it's about 20,00€ per ton of Co2.

"[…] i think it's about 20,00€ per ton of Co2."
Or about a 4% increment on retail price for gasoline.
What would happen if vehicle buyers were required to prepay their vehicles' entire projected lifecycle fuel costs as part of the vehicle purchase price? They would eventually get the all money back — with interest — over the life of the vehicle, but the full lifecycle fuel costs would be included in the purchase price.
Alternatively, suppose that the purchase price for gas guzzlers only included the projected excess fuel cost over a "benchmark" performance level. (The fee is repaid in annual installments, which at least partially offset higher fuel costs.) Fuel-efficient vehicles qualify for long-term, low-interest loans, based on how much less fuel they use relative to the benchmark level. (The loans are, in effect, repaid out of fuel savings.) On average, vehicle prices are unaffected by the fees and loans, but the difference between gas-guzzler and economy-vehicle prices would be the same as if the full lifecycle fuel prices were paid upfront.
In effect, you would have a carbon price incentive well in excess of $100/tonne built into vehicle prices before buyers make their purchase decisions, but without any of the long-term "wealth transfer" associated with taxes or carbon trading.
Actually with electric car batteries you have to prepay the biggest energy cost.
Right. Electric vehicles can cut fuel costs — electricity substituted for gasoline — by a factor of four. But even if that cost savings outweighs the battery cost, EV's are at a disadvantage because the battery cost appears in the vehicle sticker price; the fuel savings do not.
So find a way to internalize lifecycle fuel costs in vehicle prices, and transportation electrification might happen relatively quickly.
That's all very well, but what's the point of the EU reducing its carbon emissions and fossil fuel consumption if the rest of the world doesn't follow suit. This will only lower the oil price and increase the amount of oil available for the others.
The EU is on course to a 30% reduction also because industrial plants shut down in Europe and production was outsourced to Asia where the environmental standards are less rigorous.
I'm all for climate action but we can't ignore the economic and political reality. Without a global agreement all this talk about emission reduction and green energy remains academic.
Yes, that last point about Grey emissions is something that I am very concerned about too. Here in Switzerland where I live, half of our GHG emissions are indirect, because of production and transport of our goods, according to one study that I once had to write a report on. Many of our environmental externalities have been outsourced to Japan, first, and then China when we decided tha the Rhine river would no longer be polluted by our income-earning chemicals. Now we do the R&D and the small scale high-earnings production and we sent all of the dirty chemicals that once made Basel famous to be produced elsewhere. Environmental regulation only came about once we were wealthy enough to outsource all the low-paying, bulk, dirty work somewhere else and keep service jobs here.
I'm pretty sure this is more or less happening all over Europe. France has been heavily de-industrialised in the past decades, much to the dismay of many an unqualified worker in textile or automobile industry.
In this sense, projects and concepts like the 2000 Watt society, or reduction of GHG emissions cannot take place meaningfully by only taking into account domestic activities. Much like the distinction between GDP and GNP is made, we need to take into account the emissions that we are buying as part of products and services we consume that reside elsewhere.
However, apart from a border tax, I think this is really difficult.
UK Energy and Climate Change Secretary Chris Huhne (from the Liberal Democrat wing of the governing coalition) attended his first meeting of EU Environment Ministers on Friday 11 June in Luxembourg. On the agenda was the European Commission's recent paper on the moving beyond a 20% EU emissions reduction target, as well as a discussion on the state of play of the international climate negotiations.
Speaking ahead of the meeting, Secretary Chris Huhne said:
"I'll be using my first meeting of EU environment ministers to make clear the new UK Government's support for ambitious European action on climate change, including a 30% cut in EU emissions. The Commission's recent analysis provides a welcome starting point as we discuss how to implement a higher target.
"We believe a move to 30% is achievable, right for the climate and right for our economies as Europe focuses on a sustainable economic recovery. We can put Europe ahead of the game by taking new low carbon economic opportunities.
"Europe must take a lead in securing an international climate agreement though we can't just click our fingers and hope the rest of the world will follow. We've got to make real emission cuts at home, and work constructively with all other nations in achieving that ambitious deal."
It was at that meeting that French objections were resolved and the German U-turn initiated, on grounds that both regional and global interests are served by the advance to a 30% target, as the recent FT article describes.
The issue of addressing wealthy nations' sponsored or 'grey' emissions is logically a subset of the function of the climate treaty – and one which cannot and will not be resolved via border tariffs. The latter would be neither negotiable nor practicable in operation.
The widely endorsed framework for that treaty, known as "Contraction & Convergence," (C&C),
being the setting of a declining cap on global emissions and the allocation of tradable national emission rights converging over time from present output-shares to per capita parity,
provides a transparent and self-balancing system for pricing grey emissions.
Under the treaty, when a nation chooses to use emission rights on making goods for export, it means losing the revenue from trading those rights abroad.
That cost will be redeemed as a part of the price charged for the goods to the importing nation, who thereby internalizes the cost of their grey emissions.
Both parties thus have a direct incentive to develop non-fossil-based manufacturing capacity asap as a result of the current global price on CO2e outputs.
It is worth noting that Huhne is on record as a supporter of Contraction & Convergence, which was also the acknowledged basis of the UK's recent climate law of cutting 3% of CO2e outputs per year.

Definition of pp in English:
The traditional way to use pp when signing a letter on someone else's behalf is to place pp before one's own name rather than before the name of the other person. This is because the original Latin phrase per procurationem means 'through the agency of'. However, pp is now often taken to mean 'on behalf of' and is placed before the name of the person who has not signed, and this has become standard practice in many offices.

My Al Gore story
I'm not normally given to shameless name-dropping, but what else are blogs really for (other than making bets with readers)?
For the last three days I attended a small climate solutions summit hosted by the former Vice President and current Nobel Laureate. It was off-the-record, so I can't report on presentations directly, but they have made me a lot smarter about the latest technologies and strategies for clean energy, which will inform my blogging this year on climate solutions. I will say now as an aside that I have become much more bullish on the potential for large-scale solar photovoltaics as a result of attending these meetings.
The VP asked me to speak for seven minutes on hydrogen at dinner Wednesday. Before dinner, I gave him a copy of the brand-new paperback edition of — warning, shameless product placement — Hell and High Water. He looked it over for a few minutes and said, deadpan,
I have only one problem with this book — this blurb on the back here that says, "If you buy only one book about global warming, make it Hell and High Water." I just can't agree with that.
When he introduced me that night, he repeated the line to great laughter.
BTW, in case it wasn't obvious from his movie, the VP has a terrific sense of humor — and not just in his delivery timing of canned jokes, but in quick, impromptu one liners, like the one above, many of them self-deprecating (one of the speakers from a web-based company thanked him for his work accelerating the Internet, and he said something like, "You heard I had something to do with the internet?").
And in case this wasn't obvious from his movie, he has an encyclopedic knowledge of all things related to climate, energy, science, and technology.
He has only one character flaw that I could see. He emceed all the panels and every single one of them ran late (including my remarks, hard to believe as that may be). Too many questions, too much curiosity. I'm guessing this is one thing George W. has on him, probably runs a really tight meeting with very few questions.
Gore is now working on a sequel to his bestseller, An Inconvenient Truth, which will focus on solutions, apparently not dissuaded from his task by the new subtitle on my paperback, "The Global Warming Solution" (I think I have this product placement thing figured out). Hopefully Gore's book will come out this year. It could really help move the debate.
7 Responses to My Al Gore story
i find it remarkable that gore has consistently ignored one of the biggest producers of greenhouse gases – the livestock industry. globally responsible for more emissions than all transportation, reducing the amount of meat and dairy should be a major priority in the fight against global warming. i also noticed that your own blog ignores this issue. do you address it in your book at all?
addressing the emissions of the livestock industry need not be limited to a call for vegetarianism, although in light of the horrible suffering of the animals and the other severe environmental impacts of meat that should not be slighted either. animals necessarily produce greenhouse gases, but raising them on factory farms intensifies the effect. regulating and moving toward the abolition of factory farms should be a reform that even committed meat-eaters can get behind. it is completely beyond me why the mainstream environmental community and those working to fight global warming are ignoring this.
I don't think this is ignored, although [having grown up on a farm, and forked a lot of manure], it's complicated.
I'm not crazy about feedlots [our (dairy) cows were in pasture], but on the other hand, they do concentrate the manure and hence part of the methane (not the belching part), and there are farms around here powered by it:
Also, given that natural gas will keep getting more expensive, which makes nitrogen fertilizer get expensive, many well-balanced farms actually *need* livestock for manure.
If you haven't, you might study the workings of Old Amish (no electricity, no tractors) farms, which are of course the antithesis of factory farms.
In addition, of course a lot of methane is generated by rice farming, for example, and that isn't going away.
Anyway, I think your point is relevant, and there are a lot of reasons to have some less meat, but if you do a lot less dairy as well, and generally cut down on the livestock, you're going to be surprised at the lower vegetable & grain yields in the face of less fertilizer.
In any case any of the occasional idiots are tempted to mock Gore for the Internet, I got email forwarded in 2000 from Vint Cerf & Bob Kahn (who *were* two of the key creators of the Internet) pointing out Gore's key role:
Place those products as often as possible!
For those wishing to quantify the "cow farts and burps" component, see Table 16 on the page:
The US "enteric fermentation" and "solid waste of domesticated animals" methane emissions total 170.8 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent. While this is a lot in absolute terms, it's barely a belch relative to the US total of over 7,000 million metric tons/year of CO2 equivalent.
Termites are even worse!
Thanks, Lou, good pointer.
But, without taking any sides in meat vs vegetarianism, I would observe that:
– cows in some places are eating grass with minimal rain & no fertilizer, and where trees wouldn't be growing much anyway. In other cases, pastures would go back to forest in 20 years if allowed to. [Our 130-year-old pastures did.]
– cows in feedlots may well be eating a lot of corn, need a lot of antibiotics.
– The corn used a lot of water, some of which may have required energy to get there.
– The corn likely used nitrogen fertilizer, made from natural gas, and which often adds to N2O,a strong greenhouse gas itself.
– Energy was used to transport the feed to the cows.
– In a few cases, trees were cut down for land to grow the corn.
Anyway, GHG and energy side-effects are not always staightforward.
Get real, the atmospheric effect of plant matter decaying generates the exact same amount of emissions as the same mass consumed by a cow, the velocity of the exchanges are accelerated by the miracle of the the cows GI tract. Did you sleep through all your science labs? Are cows generally fed fossil fuels? I think not. A careful analysis would show antibiotics lower the emissions per lb of meat. The same would be true about grain crops that are fertilized or had chemicals applied to raise production while using the same or LESS fossil fuel to produce each unit. Every day you drink water that has been through a animals GI tract–there is no water shortage. Where was the bovine global warming when the Bison roomed the States. If the world needs me to quit eating meat to save some idiots on the flooded areas from sea levels rising a yard–To Quote my favorite native American, Tonto,"your going to die Kimosabe!" That said over grazing is stupid–any one who's studied the Mid-East recent Geo-history knows this. When are the AGW cultists going to suggest beer and pop are burning us up? Even during the "drought" in Georgia(USA) they received nearly 40 inches of rain this last year I had to check the graph for errors. Please think about the actual net movement of the molecules over the life cycles of the plants and animals before spewing this intellectual fertilizer such as meat animals having a measurable direct effect on CO2.

Hi guys,
Im hoping someone here has found the answer to this issue I'm having here. I'm moving my wordpress blog from one host to a new host (new host being 1&1) so I moved everything over beautifully, the theme etc. I then went to the old blog at the old web host, exported the xml file using the export tool in wordpress and saved my xml file down to my computer. I then went to my new host and started the import process.
Problem is, it imports for all of 10 seconds, then jumps to the "assign authors" page. After that, I hit "submit" and Im taken to a blank content area in the admin. All the nav on the top and left are there, but an empty/blank main content area.
I then check the tags, posts, categories and users section. the only thing that imports are the users.
So heres what I know and what I've done.
As you can see, I've exhausted darn near evey resourse I can find, I've tried every fix or hack I could find on the internet.
* Both the old blog and new blog are running wordpress 2.9
* Old blog runs on MySQL 4, new one on MySQL 5 (not sure it matters since we're importing/exporting using XML
* Because Im on 1&1, I've made all the necessary changes to byte size limits, bandwidth limits and such to my .htaccess and php.ini files.
* My xml file ive exported is a mete 1.6 mb, so I know that its not a timeout issue.
* At one time, I made an attempt and it imported all the users AND half the post tags, but then it sat there spinning its wheels and never did anythign else for 2 hours. So I cancelled, dropped the database tables and started fresh. Still the same problem.
Can anyone help me with this? God I'd appreciate it a TON!

The Pretty Things
Originally an offshoot of the primordial Rolling Stones, lead guitarist Dick Taylor broke away to form The Pretty Things in 1962. Securing a major label deal within months of their inception, the band attracted press attention with their unfettered power and controversial, unkempt appearance, their raunchy style of R&B spawned a run of successful releases. By 1967, The Pretty Things had become immersed in the underground psychedelic scene, developing a more harmony-led, experimental sound. Continuing to play live and record, The Pretty Things continue their evolution as an enduring musical force.
The Pretty Things tour dates
The Standard Lamps
The Standard Lamps' music can be described as a mixture of melodic tunes with a raw blues edge.

Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
From our August issue: Clinical-Style Validation,...
Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
Scientists know surprisingly little about how flu vaccines actually work. Now, new research suggests that a population of T cells appears in the blood after seasonal influenza vaccination and may boost the body's development of protective antibodies against the flu.
Following two small groups of children and adults for three years, Salah-Eddine Bentebibel and colleagues at Baylor Research Institute, along with teams from Baylor University, The Research Institute at Nationwide Children's Hospital, and Mount Sinai School of Medicine, discovered a special subgroup of T cells that appear in blood after flu vaccination. These CD4+ T cells express three markers—CXCR5, CXCR3, and ICOS—and are correlated with the development of protective antibodies against flu. Up to 60% of these ICOS+CXCR3+CXCR5+CD4+ T cells were specific for influenza antigens and expressed interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-10, IL-21, and interferon-γ upon antigen stimulation.
The authors found that these T cells work by helping pre-existing memory B cells to boost antibody production. The variation of memory B cells against the flu normally increases with age, through vaccination, and exposure to the virus year after year. Therefore, it makes sense that elderly people generally have an ample supply of memory B cells that are ready to fight many different kinds of flu.
Failure of the elderly to induce a protective antibody response after flu vaccination may be associated with the failure to induce this special group of T cells that express the three markers, the authors suggest. Further studies aimed at findings ways to harness these T cells could potentially improve vaccine design.
This study is published in Science Translational Medicine in a paper titled "Induction of ICOS+CXCR3+CXCR5+ TH Cells Correlates with Antibody Responses to Influenza Vaccination".

Dublin Favorite Tips by sourbugger Top 5 Page for this destination
Dublin General: 401 reviews and 362 photos

Favorite thing: It would seem to me that about half the world claim to be of Irish descent. It's a 'cool' race to be a member of. Never had an empire, never invaded anywhere. Built most of America (and Britain come to that), but is widely thought of as a pastoral idyll.
It's not surprising that vast numbers of tourist are keen on trying to pick up their Irish roots. Some have been known to turn up to tourist information at Dublin Airport demanding to be sent in the right direction for the 'Ryans of Kerry'.
Of slightly more practical use is the resident geneologist who gives a free hours consulatation if you stay at the Shelbourne hotel in Dublin. E-mail her with what you have beforehand and she will get going before you arrive.
If you don't have the money for that five-star service there are plenty of others who will offer their services for a price. Be warned - many will tell you a right load of old rubbish in return for the hefty whack of the tourist dollar on their desk.
nice....big juicy..succulent....fish
Favorite thing: You are never very far from a bronze in Dublin, and unusually the monuments themselves become part of the history of the nation.
For example the new spire in O'Connell street is on the site of Nelson's column which was blown up by the IRA in the 1960's. Others in Pheonix park and elsewhere were also attacked back in the 1920's & 30's. Queen Victoria escaped such a fate - but was sold to Australia!
Fondest memory: The Dublin sense of humour really come through in the nicknaming of the various monuments. Here are a couple of my favourites:
1) Molly Malone in Grafton street - known as the 'Tart with the cart'.
2) The shoppers in Batcherlors walk (near Ha'penny bridge) - known the 'Hags with the bags'.
- unfortunately the 'Floozie in the Jacuzzi' is currently without a home - which somehow seems appropriate. It also had the nickname of the "whore in the sewar" which only rhymes in a Dublin accent (As in the 'haw-arr' in the 'Saw-arr'.)
As the big pointy thing is in the site now perhaps I could suggest a nickname for the pointy thing:
"The spike through the dyke" - What do you think ?

Meet the Interns: Profiles of Student Interns
Jared Boyles '16
Major: Double Major: Economics and Management
Where is your internship? Arkadium, Business Development Intern
How did you decide on which opportunity to pursue? I have a deep passion for games and the gaming industry and as I was browsing Jasperlink for opportunities in August this particularly young but successful company caught my eye looking for a business development position that I felt played to my strengths.
How did you obtain the internship? I found the opportunity at Arkadium on Jasperlink, and upon sending in my resume was asked to visit their offices for a face-to-face interview. I was pretty much hired on the spot.
What has been the most rewarding part of your experience? The most rewarding aspect of working at Arkadium is being utilized like a real member of the team. Not only do I get to meet some awesome people, but I've been able to sit down with the CEO, make friends with my coworkers, work on important projects while being asked to provide input on crucial and interesting topics as if I'm not just an intern, but a valuable cog in the team.
What advice would you give those looking for similar opportunities? The best advice I could give to someone looking for a similar opportunity is to be open to anything and everything. Identify what you're passionate about and do everything you can to work in that field. Make the sacrifice and it'll be returned ten-fold.
Deanne Griswa '17
Major: Communication (Public Relations
Where is your internship? Per Scholas, Marketing Intern
How did you decide on which opportunity to pursue? I had no prior industry experience and they were the only one to respond asking for an interview.
How did you obtain the internship? My freshman year R.A. posted the internship offering to our Arches Facebook page. I messaged her on Facebook asking for more details, and she told me she would put a good word in for me if I applied.
What has been the most rewarding part of your experience? I want to say everything, but I know that's too vague. I was lucky to work with great people who made me feel comfortable asking questions and asked for my input on real projects. I was asked to sit in on many meetings, which helped me see exactly what goes on when they sit down to plan events and projects.
What advice would you give to those looking for similar opportunities? Internship opportunities are unexpectedly everywhere. I did not think that my freshman year R.A. would lead me to a stellar first internship - one that I always think about going back to. Ask people you know in your field if they know of any opportunities. People want to help you, they just need to know that you want help.

Where is your internship? SiriusXM Radio, Production Intern
How did you decide on which opportunity to pursue? Ever since I was six years old it has been a dream of mine to work one day in the radio field whether it is on the air or behind the scenes.
How did you obtain the internship? During the summer I applied to multiple companies in radio and T.V. throughout the New York City area. Afterward I went through a number of interviews with a few different companies including SiriusXM. Eventually after three rounds of interviews with SiriusXM they offered me a position as a radio production intern which was an opportunity I felt that I could not possibly pass up, so I accepted their job offer.
What has been the most rewarding part of your experience? The most rewarding part of my job aside from living out my dream of working in the radio field is the ability to take on a task or assignment and see its completion straight through. Whether the assignment is small behind the scenes stuff that never makes it live and on air or some of the more major tasks that involve securing guests and celebrities for shows, hearing my own news pitch that I thought of being discussed on the air, or actually putting together a full run down of a show.
What advice would you give to those who are looking for similar opportunities? I would recommend for students to apply to multiple jobs at multiple companies whether the companies are large or small and even if the job seems to be a long reach in obtaining, apply anyway because you never know what can happen. Once you have obtained the job make sure that every day you show up with a positive attitude and willingness to work and take on new challenges and don't be afraid to reach out to people and ask for help or career advice. You would be surprised how many people actually are willing to help.

Where is your internship? Wave Hill, Accounting Intern
How did you decide on which opportunity to pursue? It was not difficult to decide because it was the only existing opportunity I had that was directly in Accounting. I wanted real life exposure to the field I am pursuing and interning at Wave Hill was definitely a great start.
How did you obtain the internship? Once I came across the posting, I applied via Jasperlink.
What has been the most rewarding part of your experience? Wave Hill is fairly small community, therefore I developed strong relationships with those within my department as well as the overall staff. I was also given the opportunity to bridge my knowledge from the classroom with accounting practice. Furthermore, working with such a small entity made me realize that I wish to start my career in a larger setting.
What advice would you give to those looking for similar opportunities? What advice would you give to those are looking for similar opportunities? I would tell others to not give up; seeking for internships can be tiresome and overwhelming, but opportunities present themselves with time. Next, keep an open mind. Although it may not be your exact major, internships are learning experiences. Last and most important, always be yourself.

Where is your internship? Prada USA Corp. , Public Relations Intern
How did you decide on which opportunity to pursue? I identified my interests and pursued opportunities in the field.
How did you obtain the internship? I applied online, was interviewed and shortly after was offered the position.
What has been the most rewarding part of your experience? I found experiences like working with celebrities and on-site visits to major publications like Vogue to be among the most rewarding aspects of the job.
What advice would you give to those looking for similar opportunities? Always be on the lookout for new and challenging opportunities to pursue.

How to complain about a business
What type of person are you? Are you vocal when you believe you've been treated poorly or are dissatisfied with a product or service, or do you clam up and hold back, thinking it's too much of a hassle or a waste of time to speak up?
Believe it or not, businesses want to know when a customer is dissatisfied and they want the opportunity to fix a problem, rather than have you leave unhappy and tell five of your closest friends about your less-than-adequate experience. But there's a way to do it. »Read Full Blog Post

By incorporating spin-dependent properties and magnetism in semiconductor structures, new applications can be considered which go beyond magnetoresistive effects in metallic systems. Notwithstanding the prospects for spin/magnetism-enhanced logic in semiconductors, many important theoretical, experimental, and materials challenges remain. Here we discuss the challenges for realizing a particular class of associated applications and our proposal for bipolar spintronic devices in which carriers of both polarities (electrons and holes) would contribute to spin-charge coupling. We formulate the theoretical framework for bipolar spin-polarized transport and describe several novel effects in two- and three-terminal structures which arise from the interplay between nonequilibrium spin and equilibrium magnetization.

But then the surprise would fade away. This way at the very first second you see the ad it seems like an usual billboard standing side of the road. But after a few seconds later you see that you are actually in a car which is upside down.
So, I think it works better this way.
agree. The few seconds before the "revelation" works very nice
catches you in the wrong foot.
they showed me a picture & i laughed
dignity has never been photographed
it is effective for advertisers who seek the detail or to ordinary people?

It's always been my contention that if Pete Rose isn't in the Hall of Fame, there shouldn't be a Hall of Fame.
Drug addicts getting 5/6/7 chances, other cheats, scoundrels and miscreants in the hall, now all the talks of the "astericks" players.
Yes, he should have been banned for what he did.
However, his accomplishments can't be denied. He's the hit king. Nobody will ever even sniff in the general vicinity of that record. If THAT can't get in the Hall, it loses all luster IMO.
20 years is WAAAAY longer than necessary for "paying your debt to society".
Sure, he could have been more contrite, stepped up earlier, etc, etc...
Time to Move on.

text: Hello there! This is my first thread on this site, however i am quite familiar with Smogon. It's been a couple months since i was playing regularly and i'm a bit rusty so i wanted to post my new team for some advice. So here it is: Team At A Glance In Detail Villian (Sableye) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Prankster EVs: 252 HP / 120 Def / 136 SDef Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk) - Recover - Will-O-Wisp - Taunt - Night Shade I love using Sableye, it is just such a troll. Not only does it work as a spin-blocker, it can stop my opponents hazard setters and set up sweepers with a priority Taunt. It can cripple anything that relies on attack power with Will-o-Wisp and is sometimes able to stall the opponent out with Recover. Night Shade is just there to allow Sableye to deal decent damage if it has a chance to get a move in. Standard Sableye set, but i find it so useful. Ganesha (Donphan) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Sturdy EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Rapid Spin - Stealth Rock - Earthquake - Ice Shard Donphan is a great pokemon. It takes hits really well, and seems to never fail at getting a Rapid Spin in when i really need it. Stealth Rock is there because i hate playing without at least rocks out. Adamant nature brings Donphans attack to 304 with minimal EV investment so that it still hits hard with Earthquake. Ice Shard is also great for hitting dragon types or for getting one last move in when Donphan is on it's last leg. Sturdy is nice for a free Focus Sash and Leftover is just to increase it's staying power. Bullet (Latios) (M) @ Choice Scarf Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Draco Meteor - Surf - Psyshock - Hidden Power [Fire] Latios is a new member of the team, to replace Tentacruel. It makes an amazing revenge killer and sometimes a late-game sweeper. Draco Meteor is his main STAB move, able to KO almost everything that doesn't resist it. Surf deals with Heatran and Infernape. Psyshock can take out even a Calm Mind boosted Keldeo. I run HP Fire instead of Trick because i would rather have the extra coverage to deal with Scizor, Ferrothorn and other threats that don't like fire. The Scarf boosts Latios' speed and makes it able to outrun most things it goes up against. Taser (Magnezone) @ Air Balloon Trait: Magnet Pull EVs: 36 HP / 252 SAtk / 220 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Substitute - Thunderbolt - Hidden Power [Fire] - Flash Cannon Magnezone is a partner for Salamence and my special sweeper. His main use is trapping steel types with Magnet Pull and shooting them down with Hidden Power Fire. I put a sub up against anything Magnezone resists to increase it's staying power. Thunderbolt and Flash Cannon are there for coverage and for their solid power. Air Balloon helps to cover it's brutal ground weakness. Vampire (Gliscor) (M) @ Toxic Orb Trait: Poison Heal EVs: 244 HP / 44 Def / 220 Spd Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk) - Toxic - Earthquake - Substitute - Protect Gliscor is probably my favorite pokemon and i always try to fit him into a team. He works well as a physical wall and has good synergy with Sableye as he can continue to stall anything that they have crippled. I'm running a very standard set on him but i have been thinking of working Roost into his set. I'm not sure where though. Reptar (Salamence) (M) @ Lum Berry Trait: Moxie EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SAtk / 252 Spd Naive Nature (+Spd, -SDef) - Dragon Dance - Outrage - Earthquake - Fire Blast Finally, Salamence. I have done my best to work my team around this beast, because once he's set up for success, he rarely fails. I'm happy he got Outrage from B&W2. I used to run a Life Orb and Dragon Claw but i'm using a Lum Berry intead to get him an extra 2-3 turns to 'Rage without confusion. I set up with Dragon Dance whenever i have the chance to up the damage and Moxie continues to amp him up with every opponent he takes down. Earthquake and Fire Blast help clean up anything that he can't take out with Outrage. I've considered going back to Life Orb and Dragon Claw to avoid getting locked into Outrage in unfavorable situations but i'm not sure if the power drop is worth it. I would like to thank Novaray for all of his suggestions, they really helped me take my team up a notch. My biggest issue now is the huge ice weakness my team suffers. I have thought about switching out Donphan for Forretress or something else that can Spin and set Stealth Rocks, so i'm open to more ideas that anyone might have.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) - Todd Pletcher and Dallas Stewart will try for their first Kentucky Derby victory, while their former boss will watch the race strictly as a fan.
For the first time since 1980, D. Wayne Lukas, who has trained four Derby winners, will not have a starter in the race.
"I'm hoping for them," said Lukas, adding that he thinks it's unfair to keep referring to Pletcher and Stewart as his former assistants. They've been out of the nest long enough to be their own people."
Pletcher and Stewart are at their second Derby with contenders.
Balto Star, the front-running winner of the Spiral and the Arkansas Derby, and Invisible Ink, third in the Florida Derby and fourth in the Blue Grass, are in Pletcher's barn.
Stewart trains Dollar Bill, the Risen Star winner who was fourth in the Louisiana Derby and third in the Blue Grass.
Balto Star and Invisible Ink each worked five-eighths of a mile, while Dollar Bill went a half-mile Sunday.
Working Monday were the Bob Baffert-trained pair of favored Point Given, the strapping Santa Anita Derby winner, and Congaree, the Wood Memorial winner.
Each chestnut colt worked five-eighths of a mile in 58 1-4 seconds.
"My stress level just came down," Baffert said. "Now I can relax. They look tough."
A P Valentine worked five-eighths of a mile in 59 seconds, as co-owner Rick Pitino, new basketball coach at Louisville, watched.
"I'm very happy with his work," said trainer Nick Zito, hoping the colt can rebound from a dull fifth-place finish in the Blue Grass Stakes.

Whaever the people tolerate, they surely will get more thereof.
Anyone with at least half a brain knows that our government has completely been bought off by the Corporate Elite including the Banksters , Wall Street, and the Military/Industrial complex, this purchasing being so simple under our insane system
When the government colludes with Big Biz, that is the very essense of Fascism
So, by definition, this nation has become a fasciast State.
And of late, the Federal government, knowing that the people are awakening, is demonstrating more and more its fasciats nature. Note that the Feds have everything in place so as to be able to declare Martial Law and pulling it off. zUnder the ruse of preparing for "Terrorism", the Patriot Act was passed which model was taken right out of the Nazi Handbook to wit: The President how has the power to national all local police department, Posse Commtatis has been rescinded, Detainament camps have been set up all over the US, etc etc
Jefferson said that if ever the government ceases to serve the people and becomes corrupt and ( a situation he fully expected to happen - probably within 200 years of its founding) then is not only the right for the people to overthrow that government, it is in fact their duty
People, we are there.
The Occupyu movement is scaring the hell out of the Elites No violence, and they acannot declare Martial Lsw
Keep up the Demonstrations Thie election, re-elcct no one. Buy only from local merchants. start growing your own food if you can Buy nothing you dont have too. Buy only Amerocan made, or dont buy ata all

I would like to see live all mysql running queries (like profiler in mssql) I tried jet profiler, but I don't get same result as mssql profiler. Is there such a tool or maybe build in option to output to log?
I'll spill more light, maybe someone will think about workaround. I use entity framework to connect from .net to mysql. there are queries that work in development environment and not in production. I want to see parsed query to see what is wrong.
