Steer Clear of Santa
For most companies, the traditional office Christmas party long ago gave way to a "holiday party" out of respect for the various religions and traditions of a multicultural workforce. Some companies have taken the "holiday" out of the ritual altogether, pushing the annual event to January, or planning something earlier in the fall, but those who stick with a December party can create a "holiday neutral" event with winter themes and activities. Consider a snow queen motif, with a sparkling white rose décor, or a fondue party, with a mix of broth, cheese, and desert fondues. Decorating gingerbread houses (in the shape of company headquarters?) is bound to get creative.
Form a Committee
Put together a group of employees from various departments to get input on the holiday party plans. While it might be more work up front, you'll get more ideas and less grumbling about the arrangements in the end.
No Lampshades
Too often holiday parties lead to excessive drinking; this, in turn, can expose a company to liability from dangerous drivers or out-of-line supervisors who get too suggestive with their employees. Legal observers suggest the following steps to keep the holiday party from turning into a disaster: Make attendance voluntary. Remind employees that the company's harassment and substance abuse policies apply to off-site parties. If you serve alcohol, hire professional bartenders, consider a ticket system or cash bar to limit intake, and always have plenty of food on hand. Discontinue alcohol service well before the end of the event, and have transportation available for those who shouldn't drive.
Don't Be a Spouse Scrooge
Holiday parties are a way for employees, clients, and vendors to feel appreciated and part of a community. Inviting the spouse allows him or her to build connections as well. On the practical side, when spouses or significant others are invited, the chances go down that employees will drink to excess (and if they do, they'll have a ride home).
In lieu of
Companies that skip the holiday party or customer gift-giving tradition may choose to contribute to a charity in the name of their employees or clients. Gracious wording of this "in lieu of" gift will help recipients remember the organization's gesture. One option: "In the spirit of the holiday season, a donation has been made in your honor by [name of company] to [name of charity]."
HOLIDAY PARTY 1. (noun) A social gathering typically held in December to celebrate the end-of-year holidays, including Christmas, Hanukkah, and the New Year.

When working with multiple documents, and I switch from the "current" document to another, is there some way I have to notify my plugn that I have a different document, or does my plugin always ASSUME it is working on the "current" document. I ask this in conjunction with Dictionarys, as when I switch documents, I cannot access what I think is the dictionary for the current document. Is there some type of document-dictionary relationship I am missing ?
I'm not sure what you're asking for. There are notifiers that let you know when the current document changes. You can get the handle to the current document as well, which is a good way to know which document you're 'currently' talking to. You can't talk to the dictionaries of a document is current, maybe that's what you're asking?
My problem is, when I am working with just one document (#1), everything is fine. I can read/write to the dictionary. When I create the second document, my dictionary read/writes fail. I suspect I am not doing something I need when I respond to the Notifier that says a different document (#2) is selected.
Is the dictionary "global" in nature, or do I need to create a new one for every document I create with my panel?
Is there a document->dictionary association, and if so, what is it.
The sample code with the SDK isn't real clear about documenting how the dictionary works.
It depends on where you're getting the dictionary. There are actually several places to get dictionaries, and you can even create your own (which is sort of necessary, since you can have entries in dictionaries that are themselves dictionaries!). Art objects, layers, they also have dictionaries. Live Effects have them, and a few other special cases have them too (some of the advanced stroke options).
If you're using AIDocumentSuite::GetDictionary() -- as I suspect you are -- then, yes, that's document specific. That means that you can't keep writing out to the same dicitonary if the user switches documents. Getting the document's dictionary is pretty cheap though; if you're hanging on to that handle one simple solution is just get it fresh every time you want to talk to the dictionary. That way you won't get complaints when the current document switches. If you try and talk to objects from a document when another one is 'current', you'll almost always get errors.
That said, if you're doing something that invovles the current document's dictionary and it involves a panel, you'll definitely want to react to the document changed notifier! Our product has several panels, and they interact with dictionaries all the time. Keeping the panels updated when the document changes is one of the important tasks of any panel (usually!). You'll be interested in: kAIDocumentChangedNotifier, kAIDocumentOpenedNotifier & kAIDocumentClosedNotifier.
Also, the sample code isn't a great place for explanations. I'd go to the actual suite headers, which aren't bad for documentation. AIDocument.h has this:
/** Retrieves the recorded dictionary associated with the current document.
Changes in this dictionary and its contents are recorded in the undo history.
Dictionaries are reference counted. You must call \c #AIDictionarySuite::Release()
when you no longer need the reference.
@param dictionary [out] A buffer in which to return a pointer to
the dictionary reference.
@see \c #GetNonRecordedDictionary()
AIAPI AIErr (*GetDictionary) ( struct _AIDictionary** dictionary );
OK, I'll look at that tonight and see. I know I was handling the kAIDocumentChangedNotifier notification.....I'll post the code if I can't get it working....
Got it working, thanks !

EchoStar and Dish Network agree to pay TiVo to settle a long-running patent tussle. The companies are also swapping patent licenses.
U.S. Court of Appeals rules that EchoStar did, in fact, violate TiVo's DVR patents, paving the way for the disabling of infringing devices.
Dish Network DVR owners won't see any impact just yet as EchoStar appeals the latest decision, but TiVo is a step closer to $300 million and a crippling blow against EchoStar.
From CES 2008, Brian Tong takes a look at the EchoStar TR-50 DVR, a digital over-the-air receiver with DVR functionality.
The company's third-quarter earnings are boosted into positive territory after receiving $105 million in patent trial award.
Will Sling Media be able to maintain its independent innovation streak now its fully owned by Echostar?
TiVo has lost an important battle with EchoStar. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has rejected two of the claims in TiVo's DVR patent.
A federal court grants EchoStar's petition to take another look at the long-running legal dispute over DVR technology patents.
Dish Network says it's already altered its DVR software and wants a court to stop TiVo from claiming that Dish still infringes on TimeWarp patent.
The EchoStar SlingModem combines a cable modem and Slingbox in one housing--and it won't be the last cable-centric product the former satellite-only hardware provider releases this year.

We Have Now Not to Waste
"The years of our life are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty; yet… they are soon gone, and we fly away" (Psalm 90:10).
My children begin school this week. The summer is passing us by and we're all groaning a bit. It went so fast.
I turned 47 this summer. 47? I remember my Dad turning 47. How'd I get here so soon? My oldest child turned 16 this summer. My second child turns 14 this week. But they were just toddlers! We were just trying to figure out kindergarten options for them, weren't we?
Life is a vapor. Even if we live to old age our lives "are soon gone" (Psalm 90:10). But most people either desperately try to grab as much life as they can by pursuing passing things, which the Bible calls chasing the wind (Ecclesiastes 2:11) or they resign themselves to fatalistic cynicism and nihilistic interests.
We all know people like this. Let's try to help them not stay that way. Let's work together to show them where the path of life is found (Psalm 16:11). For love's sake, let's try and spare them from wasting their lives on what is not really life (Luke 12:15). Let's tell them that real joy and the fullness of life that they long for exists. But it won't be found in the world that's passing away (1 John 2:17). It is only found in the life (John 14:6), the Crucified One who died and is alive forevermore (Revelation 1:18).
One way we can help is by making cases (52 books) of Don't Waste Your Life available for $129 ($2.48 ea.). John Piper wrote it with both Christians and Non-Christians in mind and it is one of the most stirring books I've ever read. Give this book out to guests at your church or to your neighbors or co-workers or extended family. If you're interested, just click-through to our outreach case specials at the bottom of this page. If you'd like to use them in Bible studies, small groups, or classes, we also have a free study guide you can download.
Whatever we do, let's be bold. Like the summer, life will be over very soon. We have now not to waste. God, help us!
We're serious about moving books.
While our ministry energies are focused primarily through our website, we also stand ready to move books in bulk so you can help us in the spreading. We've arranged for extraordinary case-lot specials on some of John Piper's books geared especially for small groups and outreach efforts. These titles are packaged in bulk, priced at the lowest possible rates (as donations), ready to be distributed, and once you receive them, are for giveaway only.
Would you partner with us?

Cedar Bluff State Park, KS
Status: Open year round. Season Dates
Max reservation window: Sun Apr 19 2015 Later Dates
DescriptionConstruction of Cedar Bluff Reservoir began in April of 1949 with the intention of providing flood control, irrigation and recreational opportunities. The reservoir was completed in 1951 and filled that same year. This Bureau of Reclamation owned reservoir, which is managed by the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism, quickly became a popular destination. The reservoir and surrounding public lands provided many opportunities which previously had been non-existant to this region. In 1962, Cedar Bluff State Park was developed to accommodate the public by providing outdoor recreational facilities and improved opportunities. Cedar Bluff State Park continues to thrive today, annual visitation is consistently over the 250,000 mark. Cedar Bluff State Park is divided into two, unique areas along the shorelines of Cedar Bluff Reservoir. The Bluffton Area on the north shore provides nearly 350 acres for visitors and provides a variety of facilities to meet the outdoor enthusiasts needs. The Bluffton Area includes: two boat ramp facilities, 85 two utility campsites and 11 three utility campsites; two community shelters, a reserveable group utility campground, three showerhouses, two trailer dumpstations, six rental cabins and numerous undesignated primitive campsites and picnic areas. Be sure to enjoy some of the additional amenities and opportunities which include sand volleyball, horseshoes, shore-side basketball, bicycling on our BMX track or relaxing at the beach area. Fishing can also be fantastic from the park's shores; nearly all of the shoreline within each area is accessible and the Bluffton Area includes a covered, handicap accessible fishing dock. The Page Creek Area, on the south shore of the reservoir, is nearly 500 acres in size. It is not quite as developed but provides some of the finest primitive camping in the state with it's large shade trees and sandy shorelines. The Page Creek Area provides 17, two utility campsites, 20 one utility campsites, a large community shelter, two trailer dumpstations, two boatramp facilities, two showerhouses and two restroom facilities; one designated, improved primitive campground and three primitive campgrounds which provide numerous undesignated campsites. This area is a favorite for boaters, jet skiers and for those who seek a little more solitude when relaxing outdoors.

The Lead
Regular tank and reactor cleaning is essential to assure product quality, and the choice of cleaning methods can have a big impact on productivity, employee safety, and profitability. High-pressure water jets, directed by a rotating 3-D head on a telescopic lance, eliminate the need for personnel to enter a tank and can save many hours of cleaning time. These benefits can save processors hundreds of thousands of dollars.
This practical guide links the unique business processes of the chemical industry to specific software capabilities available in formula-based ERP solutions. Case study references provide insight into the capabilities needed to manage by-products and co-products, variability of ingredients, and finished products and processes. It also address how the right ERP solution can significantly improve product costing, production predictability, and scalability, as well as compliance issues related to traceability and MSDS.

We have a small kitchen and previously had a 42" round table that took up too much room. The island is the perfect size and provides us with additional prep space as well as a perfect place for the two of us to dine.
I just assembled this piece today. It is absolutely gorgeous. Assembly did take some time, but I am a single white female and I read and follow all the instructions. Thanks to the strategically placed wooden dowels, you couldnt assemble this piece incorrectly if you wanted to. I am very pleased with my purchase. The top did receive a bit of damage during shipping but I am going to contact them now about a replacement. This really was the freight carriers fault it appears.
The other reviewers were right the two boxes this item came in were HEAVY!!! My UPS delivery man must be hating me right now. But it was definitely worth the effort. As soon as I took the item out of the box I recognized the excellent quality of the material. It does take a full afternoon to put together and you need to be VERY careful to put the pieces together in the right order because it would be nearly impossible to reserve yourself. But the end result is one of the most beautiful kitchen islands I have ever seen and at this price range it is a real steel. I am a very picky consumer but I can say without any qualification this wa one of the best furniture items I've bought in a long time. I have been using it for a few months now without any problem. My only warning i make sure you pick a kitchen island that matches the rest of your kithcen you dont want one that is a different color or material. Also make sure your kitchen island is the same height as your kitchen counters or it will look wrong.
It's beautiful...it looks just like the picture..it would have been simple to put it together,even though you needed two people to do it, except for the carelessness of the factory drilled holes. I mean really, there were not that many, but out of maybe 8 (not real sure of the total) at least 3 were drilled at an angle where you had to MAKE it work or they were just enough off center you had to drill a new hole. I think it will be fine as long as I never have to move it...it's just a shame no more care was taken with it...
This piece is a great addition to my cottage style kitchen; matches my other pieces perfectly. Arrived with no damage and was securely packaged. The island is a substantial piece; very solid, weighty and well made. It took my husband and I about an hour to put together with no issues; instructions were very clear. The storage is great; I was able to put my Christmas plates, bowls, wine glasses and wine opener on the upper portion of the cabinet. On the lower portion, I have my cutting boards, kitchen towels, place mats and extra serving pieces. The shelves on either side of the island legs are an added bonus; I have used them for some of my mugs, holiday decorations and smaller cookbooks. The top of the island is great as well; more than enough room for a cutting board, knives, centerpiece, candles or other decorations. I can't say one bad thing about this island and I highly recommend it to everyone.
Everything I expected looks great in my kitchen I LOOKED A LONG TIME AND IT IS PERFECT
This is just the perfect size. Not too overwhelming and very stylish for a colonial home. I love the drawers that can be accessed on both sides. The top goes well with my oak cabinets. The shelves on the ends are not very high but great for coffee mugs or spices. I can also fit a quart ball jar on the top shelf. I love it and have had lots of compliments.
This little breakfast bar is a solid piece of furniture. The designs fits perfectly with my country kitchen and is not so large that has inhibits traffic in the kitchen. Easy to assemble and solid. The only thing I'm not so thrilled with is the top drawer that goes through to both sides of the table. I find I am constanly adjusting it because it doesn't have a stop on the inside. Push too hard to close it and it goes out the other side. Having said that, after comparing prices on many breakfast bars, this one is perfect in what it is and does for the price. I am very pleased.
Purchased this item when I remodeled my kitchen. Did not like the white color as it did not fit the new decor of my kitchen. Was able to have my painter to paint it a different color for me and I absolutely love it!
I've been looking for a kitchen island for just about ever - feels that way anyway. Finally found something I like in my price range, yay! In fact, I saw this same thing on another website for more that *** more. My kitchen is roomy, but has almost no countertop space or cupboard storage space, so this is a big help. Adds extra food prep space, I keep all my canned goods on the side shelves and a couple small appliances inside. It's a very substantial piece of furniture - doesn't slide if you lean on it. It came in two very heavy boxes. UPS dropped them in front of my garage and I had to wrestle them inside. They did NOT get a signature, as the description says, so you might have to watch for it. Mine sat outside overnight before I noticed it. I opened the boxes in the garage and moved all the parts in bit by bit. Assembly was easy, I didn't need any help from a second person. Just be sure to read the directions through one before you start and identify all the parts. Oh, I almost forget, assembly was easy, but half the instructions were missing! Luckily I found a PDF online and followed that.

Bird Calls - Tweet Week
Here is where things start to break down. Any small bird, that is not a Sparrow or a Hummingbird, is called a Finch. Still I trusted them.
When they called the less than attractive medium-sized brown bird a Nevada Brown Bird - I began to doubt them.
I still believe Dad saw a "Monster Pigeon" (big as a small dog) even when Mom says it with a snicker. I will also go with his claims that he sees a Falcon sometimes.
When we saw a lovely sparrow-sized bird that had a yellow face which turned orange and eventually red on his chest, I had my doubts that it's real name was a Tequila Sunrise, but I let it go. I had no real proof.
Then the other day we saw a little Finch-sized tasty, er pretty, looking little bird. He was a bright chartreuse with a black face and black wings. When Daddy called him a Wilson, named after his resemblance to a tennis ball - well, I knew they were clueless for sure.

In year 1986, Rice registered a season that started perhaps the finest stretch by any receiver in National Football League history.
That season, he caught eighty six passes for a league-leading 1,570 yards. He was also the topper of National Football League in touchdown catches with fifteen. It asterisked the first of eleven straight 1,000-yard seasons for Rice who also registered double-digit receiving touchdown totals in 9 of the next 10 seasons.

The state's teachers would be given more leeway to intervene physically when dealing with a disruptive student under a bill scheduled for a public hearing Wednesday.

The current rule, which took effect in the fall, prohibits physical restraint unless a teacher is in "imminent danger" of harm. It is being challenged by educators who say the definition of "restraint" is too narrow and the resulting reluctance to intervene is leading to property damage and staff injuries.
"Educators can't be left having to debate what is allowed when our students or staff may be in a risky situation," said Lois Kilby-Chesley, president of the Maine Education Association, which represents teachers.
The bill proposed by Sen. Tom Saviello, R-Wilton, would loosen the rule known as Chapter 33. It would allowing teachers to intervene faster and move a student against his or her will without triggering a "restraint" situation that must be documented with extensive written reports.
"We need our educators to focus on teaching again. I am hopeful this bill will allow them to do that while keeping both our students and staff safe in the classroom. I want teachers to teach!" Saviello said in a statement Tuesday.
Among other things, his bill would consider picking up a child under 8 years old, or temporarily touching or holding a student to get them to another location, to be a "physical escort," not restraint.
Supporters of the existing rule oppose the change and say teachers are driven by convenience, not the child's best interest.
"Where is the compassion? Where is the understanding that a student is having a tough time?" asked parent Deb Davis, who had a hand in devising the current rule and opposes Saviello's bill. "Using restraint in the classroom to restore order? If I was (another child) in the classroom, it would really upset me. It sounds barbaric to me."
The new rule, which took effect last fall, came in response to reports of Maine students being restrained inappropriately. It was the first overhaul of the restraint rules in Maine in 10 years.
Among other things, the new rule required districts to report to the state the number of times they put students in restraint or seclusion. Schools do not have to report the circumstances of each incident.
The statewide figures will not be available until the end of the year, but district officials in Portland, the state's largest school district with almost 7,000 students, said they had 52 incidents of restraint and 53 incidents of seclusion in the first quarter of the 2012-13 school year. In neighboring South Portland, which has about 3,100 students, the district reported 101 restraint incidents and 55 seclusions.
Frequently, the same students need restraint or seclusion, sometimes as part of a recommended therapy agreed upon by parents and doctors. In the Portland figures, for example, one student was placed in seclusion 34 times.
In 2009, a bill to prohibit face-down physical restraint died in a legislative committee. The Maine Department of Education then gathered about 25 educators, children's advocates and disability specialists, who proposed the changes that led to the new rules.
But within weeks of the new rule taking effect, teachers were reporting problems, according to Kilby-Chesley, of the MEA. The Maine Principals' Association, the Maine School Superintendents Association and the Maine School Boards Association also support Saviello's bill.
Under existing language, a teacher who touches a student without the student's permission -- even, for example, to pick up a first-grader who is having a temper tantrum -- meets the definition of "restraint." That triggers paperwork, a group review committee, notification of parents, reports to the state and the creation of a plan to avoid a future situation.
Previously, the definition of "restraint" was largely considered to apply to more extreme situations in which a teacher felt compelled to use physical force to regain control of a seriously disruptive student, usually a special education student. The current rule applies to all students.
Restraint techniques can range from teachers using their hands to physically move a child, wrapping their arms around students from behind in a seated "basket hold" or placing students face-down on the ground to physically control their bodies.
In more extreme situations, a student could be put in seclusion, defined as alone in a small room designated for that purpose.
Both sides of the issue agree that there is still a need for restraint and seclusion with some students. The recent debate has centered on situations at the lower end of the scale: A student ripping down posters in a classroom, or a young child refusing to come in from the playground even after the bell has rung.
Both of those examples have been pointed to as examples of a gray area, when the child and educators may not be in "imminent danger" but the situation is disruptive and could call for physical intervention.
Davis said educators should be working on prevention efforts, not loosening the definition of restraint. That said, she understands the teachers' concerns and supports more training about the existing rule.
"Now they are dealing with problems like a student is acting out and they need to shepherd them out of classroom and it becomes 'restraint.' They're freaked out about what to do," Davis said. "And I can see why that's confusing. The department (of education) needs to create better guidance.
"I hope common sense prevails."
The U.S. Department of Education published a study last year estimating there were 38,792 cases of student seclusion or restraint in the 2009-10 school year.
More than 30 states have passed restraint legislation, and federal legislation has been proposed.
The public hearing will be held at 1 p.m. before the Education Committee, in Room 202 of the Cross Building.

Q: Should Christians take care of the earth?
A: A guest columnist in Scientific American magazine recently wrote the following:
Many secularists claim that Christians don't bother to take care of the earth. However, the Bible makes clear that man is to care for the earth in Genesis 1:26–28, when God told Adam and Eve to "have dominion" over it. The Bible talks about times and seasons for harvesting and planting (Ecclesiastes 3:2), implying that we must do so responsibly. We are even told in Proverbs 12:10 to treat animals well.
It is true that 2 Peter 3 is a prophecy of how God will destroy the heavens and the earth by fire one day. But in the meantime, Answers in Genesis and the Creation Museum teach that man has a responsibility to care for and have dominion over the earth.

Appropriation or syncretisation? Or maybe just the evolution in understanding? You decide.
Zeus is the Greek king of the gods, the god of sky and weather who fertilizes the fields and protects the home. He is the god of law, order and fate. He was typically depicted as a mature, regal man with a beard. Typical symbols associated with him: lightning bolt, eagle, ram, bull, snake, cornucopia and scepter.
This is a fascinating subject and a very nice overview of it. Honestly, though, I don't see where talk of "appropriation" comes in
Personally I'm never sure where the line of appropriation is...Americans can be "gaga" over anything and everything Native America
The Greeks who came back from the grand tour of Egypt and sold fake Khemetic initiations for 10 talents were appropriating (like $

HEALTH CARE … Some folks have prophesied that this new government program will be the death of the Republic. Insurance corporation ads have said nothing good will come of the proposed reform. And others have already begun ceremoniously throwing tea overboard … But I, for one, am proud that my U.S. Rep. John Salazar (and both my Senators) voted for the bill that will, in the Third Congressional District … Improve coverage for 362,000 residents with existing health insurance … Give tax credits and other assistance to up to 184,000 families and 24,400 small businesses to help them afford coverage … Improve Medicare for 106,000 beneficiaries, including closing the donut hole … Extend coverage to 105,500 uninsured residents … Guarantee that 18,600 residents with pre-existing conditions can obtain coverage … Protect 900 families from bankruptcy due to unaffordable health care costs … Allow 57,000 young adults to obtain coverage on their parents' insurance plans … Provide millions of dollars in new funding for 35 community health centers … Reduce the cost of uncompensated care for hospitals and other health care providers by $84 million annually … Nope, it wasn't a perfect bill. Government is an imperfect union, as Pres. Obama is fond of saying. But it's a damn good start … Now let's start thinking how to tweak and improve what's been approved.
PAUL STAMETS … Confirmed as Mushfest headliner for the 30th Annual Telluride Mushroom Festival this summer, the mycowizard CEO of Fungi Perfecti will join mycologist and psychonaut Gary Lincoff, founder Manny Salzman, Elinoar Shavit, John Winslow, Daniel Winkler, Fungi magazine's Britt Bunyard, David Rose and many more fungophiles … Aug. 26 to the 29th. At the Galaxy Theater and Elks Park … Parade on Saturday at 5 p.m. Costumes a must!
POWERLINES UBER ALLES … The American Clean Energy Leadership Act (also known as the Waxman-Markey bill) narrowly passed the House last year but will have an even tougher time in the Senate this year … According to my Moab expert Lance Christie, the Act facilitates development of a national interstate electric transmission grid to move electricity from areas that have the resources for renewable energy production (concentrating solar, wind, geothermal mainly to the east of the Pacific Coastal Range and west of the Mississippi River) to urban areas with high load demand (which tend to be concentrated near the east and west coasts). The costs of developing the grid would be shared among all beneficiaries, including electricity producers and consumers. Lance adds that the good thing about this legislation is that the new grid is specifically to be a computerized "smart grid." In Europe, such grid designs are capable of maintaining a steady electricity supply to urban loads from renewable power sources which represent from 40 to 100 percent of total source supply to the grid. Our current dumb U.S. grid, which is still operating on the 1920s grid control model matured in the Truman administration but now with computerized rather than manual controls, assumes all electricity sources are "base load" plants and cannot handle intermittent renewable inputs of over 10 to 20 percent of total power, depending on which grid regional control center you are evaluating. U.S. utilities have discouraged inputs from renewable, intermittent power sources such as wind and photovoltaic solar that exceed a tiny fraction of a percent of total grid power source because they fear they will lose control of grid stability in matching supply to load … The bad thing about this initiative is that everyone is thinking in terms of the existing paradigm of electricity production: large, capital-intensive power plants sending electricity vast distances over high-voltage power lines to urban and industrial load centers. The trend in Europe is to adopt the German feed-in tariff model, which is a free-market mechanism that encourages homeowners and businesses to install small distributed renewable grid-tied energy facilities. The corporate energy powers-that-be have effectively kept out of the national energy debate the idea of adopting a feed-in tariff to encourage such distributed generation, which is a pluralist, small-is-beautiful, energy-from-the-people model consistent with the needed decentralization of our economy. Furthermore, the Act includes a Renewable Electricity Standard which ostensibly requires that 12 percent of the nation's generation come from "renewable" sources by 2021: wind, solar, geothermal, new hydroelectric, biomass and landfill methane generation. However, Comparative Analysis of Three Proposed Federal Renewable Electricity Standards by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) concluded the legislation effectively requires renewable production of less than 10 percent of the nation's electricity by 2021 – when all the loopholes, ifs, ands and buts are totaled up. According to NREL, that is less than the percentage of national energy that would be coming from renewables in 2021 if Congress takes no action to promote renewable production of electricity! In other words, the Act requires utility companies to do less towards increasing renewable energy sources in their grid portfolios than they would do anyway. Lance concludes, "My comment on this is unprintable."

By STEVEN REA McClatchy Newspapers
It isn't hard, the first time Mark Wahlberg and Russell Crowe square off in "Broken City," to see that the two stars are enjoying themselves mightily. Wahlberg is a New York cop asked to resign in the wake of a controversial shooting, and Crowe is the mayor asking for his badge. They meet in the mayor's City Hall office -- it's a tense, tough exchange, with Jeffrey Wright, another formidable actor, off to one side. But there's clearly an amiable vibe mixed in with the brinkmanship, too.
Mark Wahlberg, above, stars as private investigator Billy Taggart, who is hired by New York's mayor, played by Russell Crowe, below, to follow his wife, played by Catherine Zeta-Jones.
20th Century Fox photos
"BROKEN CITY," starring Mark Wahlberg, Russell Crowe, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Jeffrey Wright, Barry Pepper and Natalie Martinez. Directed by Allen Hughes, written by Brian Tucker. Rated R for pervasive language, some sexual content and violence. Running time: 1:49
"Russell didn't come on until week six of production," Wahlberg recalls. "And the first day that he walked onto the set, we were going to shoot that big confrontation, and Allen Hughes, our director, was saying, 'You guys want to rehearse?'
"And we both said no. 'Let's just start throwin' down."'
And that's what they did.
A tale of political corruption, police violence, power, and greed, "Broken City" -- opening Friday -- owes a debt to classics such as "The Big Sleep," "The Maltese Falcon" and "Chinatown." Wahlberg's Billy Taggert leaves the NYPD and sets up shop as a private eye, chasing adulterous spouses, and chasing clients who haven't paid him.
When the mayor calls Taggert back a few years down the line and offers the freelance detective a big check to follow his wife (Catherine Zeta-Jones), Taggert thinks he's got everything figured out.
Like Humphrey Bogart's and Jack Nicholson's sorry gumshoes, though, it turns out he doesn't have a clue.
"For sure, those are movies I grew up watching with my dad," Wahlberg says, acknowledging that's one of the reasons he went for "Broken City" -- a film he also produced.
"And that's why we were able to attract the talent, because there were so many well-written parts. People really got to sink their teeth into meaty roles."
Wahlberg, along with director Hughes, rolled into Philadelphia last week for a preview screening of "Broken City," and to talk the movie up to local media. Camped out at the Rittenhouse Hotel, Wahlberg rattled off the five films he's shot here over the years: "The Italian Job," "Invincible" (the story of bartender-turned-Philadelphia Eagle Vince Papale), "Shooter," "The Happening" and "The Lovely Bones."
"All Philly films," he says. "Although 'Italian Job' I didn't shoot here, but the film shot here, so that still counts on my resume."
Nothing if not industrious, Wahlberg has four films set for release in 2013, and more in the works that he'll star in and/or produce for his company, Leverage. He's also executive producer of TV's "Entourage" (they may make a movie) and "Boardwalk Empire."
First up, "Broken City." Then in April, it's "Pain & Gain," with Wahlberg and Dwayne Johnson as bodybuilders caught in an extortion scheme. Michael Bay directs.
In August, Wahlberg teams with Denzel Washington for "2 Guns," about a DEA agent and a Navy intelligence officer investigating a crime syndicate -- and each other. Wahlberg's "Contraband" director, Baltasar Kormakur, is back barking orders.
And then, slated for December, there's "Lone Survivor," based on the true story of Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell, part of an ill-fated 2005 mission high in the mountains of Afghanistan's Kunar province. Four SEALs were caught in an ambush -- "it's the worst tragedy in the history of the SEALs," says Wahlberg. Eric Bana, Emile Hirsch and Taylor Kitsch also star, and Peter Berg directs.
"It was a physically demanding movie," says the actor, who shot "Lone Survivor" in the mountains of New Mexico, which doubled for the peaks of Sawtalo Sar and Gatigal Sar. "And we felt a lot of responsibility in making sure that we did Marcus and those guys some justice ...

Santa Barbara High School students will perform the classic musical.
When: Sunday, Nov. 10, 2013, 2 p.m.
Where: S.B. High School, 700 E. Anapamu St., Santa Barbara
Cost: $10 - $25
Age limit: 10+
Categories: Theater
Please visit the website, sbhstheatre.com, for information and photos (as well as information about the program).
Billed as "a musical vaudeville," Chicago is based on a play by the same name written in 1926 by Maurine Dallas Watkins. It tells the story of Roxie Hart, who finds herself on Murderer's Row in the Cook County Jail after shooting her lover. Smooth-talking attorney Billy Flynn agrees to take on Roxie's case and manipulates the Chicago press to make Roxie a celebrity. Roxie has a rival for the media's attention, however: another Billy Flynn client named Velma Kelly. Chicago is a cynical look at America's celebrity culture and its corrupt judicial system, presented through the highly stylized language of song and dance.
Chicago features songs by John Kander and Fred Ebb, the same team responsible for Cabaret, which played to sold-out houses and rave reviews at SBHS this past summer.
Appearing as Roxie Hart is Sable Layman. She last appeared on stage as Fraulein Kost in Cabaret. Camille Umoff, in her SBHS debut, plays the role of Velma Kelly; Mary Cusimano (Lady of the Lake in Spamalot, Frau Schneider in Cabaret) is cast in the pivotal role of "Mama" Morton, while the lawyer Billy Flynn is played by Grant Bower (Cabaret). The cast of talented singers and dancers includes Julia Kupiec, Ciara Tolliver, Mae Pendergast, Claudia Fanaro, Hailey Turner, Aaron Linker, Spencer Glesby, Andrew Gutierrez, Rio Salazar, Hailey Simmons, Shayne Casso-Cloonan, Libby Sestak, Nolan and Malcolm McCarthy, Bradley Devine, and Dante Gonzalez.
Otto Layman, Performing Arts Chair at Santa Barbara High School directs, beginning his 18th year at the school; Choreography is by UCSB Associate Professor of Dance Christina McCarthy (Spamalot, Cabaret, The Drowsy Chaperone); Costume Design by Lise Lange (Spamalot, The Glass Menagerie, Cabaret, God of Carnage and The Drowsy Chaperone in 2012-2013); Musical Direction by John Douglas (Cabaret, The Drowsy Chaperone); Vocal Direction by Sarah Eglin (Spamalot). Ingrid Holden's set design marks her first with SBHS, while David Guy is the Light Designer and Technical Director.
"What we are very confident about," says Otto, "Is that this is not a museum recreation of someone else's work—it is not a Fosse knockoff or a movie homage—the joy and magic of theatre is how plays survive, change and grow depending on the vision of the artists who explore the work—designers and actors. This will be a Chicago unlike any other, and the design reflects that—Ingrid has imagined a space that is steel and newspapers, and we are excited to begin the building of the set she has created."

If Devin Hester's days are over in Chicago, one thing is certain: He is the greatest returner of all-time.
On Monday the NFL announced that the Chicago Bears would have two more representatives in Hawaii at the Pro Bowl. Kyle Long and Tim Jennings will join Bears teammates Brandon Marshall, Alshon Jeffery, and Matt Forte. Not bad for an 8-8 team.
Everyone saw it coming.
Last night there was some actual NFL being played. Whoop de doo and a hallelujah for you! Join us for our Thoughts on all things NFL, and be sure to add a few of your own in the comment section.
The oft-maligned Pro Bowl, where the best players don't play and nobody seems to care, has received some tweaks to liven up the format. It's probably not going to work, but it's a pretty interesting attempt none the less.
The Texans offensive line is doing it big this weekend. Deion Sanders, Jr. sleeps on gilded sheets. Americans are unmoved by the R-word controversy. And prepare yourselves: a #ClutchCityResurrection is at hand.
He was talking about Tampa Bay running back Legarrette Blount, but methinks a double entendre was racing through Deion Sanders' head. On Sunday he unleashed quite possibly the best line of NFL...
Gawker are arguing that Hulk Hogan's lawsuit should be thrown out, as publishing excerpts of the sex tape didn't damage his reputation due to prior admissions of adultery in his second autobiography and that they had a journalistic right to do so.
Deion Sanders and his Dallas fledgling charter school, Prime Prep, are running into issues with the state's athletic approval.
Darrelle Revis has been one of the best corners in the NFL over the past five seasons. My question is, Do you think he is better than Deion Sanders was in his first five seasons? Look at the stats and breakdown and let us know, if Revis has what it takes to dethrone the greatest corner of all time.

Hire cal to repaint our house. He hired some other crew and never supervised. Our contract called for two coats of paint. After one year, I am positive we only got one coat. Very disappointed.
great contractor! – EcoPaint installed new siding & painted my house last fall. Within a year some of my siding started to come off and some paint was peeling off a windowsill. I have called Cal at EcoPaint for 3 months now! He promises to come out and fix the problems, but never shows up. At this point I'll probably have to hire someone to fix things. I've been very nice and understanding, but I've had enough. Very poor follow up from Eco Paint.
I can't say enough about Cal Phillips and his team. They worked with me through two color changes without any complaints! The job they did on the house was outstanding! The clean up after each day of painting was great for our family not to mention my dog (who eats everything left on the ground)! I will definitely use them again and would recommend them to any one looking to paint anything inside or out. Thanks Cal!
Amazing Team! Must use!!! – I spoke with Cal after he and his team had working on one of my properties a little over three years ago, and asked him if there was any way he and his team could help out on that same property. Even though we had surpassed the 3 year warranty, he still went out there and touched up the areas which needed some TLC. I was extremely impressed by his go-get-it attitude, and that he would stand by his service even 3 years and some months later. I would highly recommend you use him and his firm to help you with any of your painting needs inside and out. They do impeccable work at great prices!
sugarsmamma, each time you call, I smile. Knowing each house painting request you have, many people are depending upon painting, completing the real estate transaction, from the buyers team, to the sellers team of professionals. Rest assured, any future interior or exterior painting you may run across, consider it done, as it is always a real pleasure working for you and The Denver Homes , Real Estate Firm here in Colorado.
great work – I recently had cal and his team paint the exterior of my home. they came out and gave a estimate that was agreed upon and i feel beat the other estimates by far. when i picked out the paint cal was very knowledgeable concerning what paints would last and what paints would fad. cal and his team were professional about every step from power washing my home to the last step of cleaning up. i would recommend cal and his team to anyone. thank you for doing such a great job on my home and i will call if i need painting done in the future.
We at Eco Paint all thank you for allowing us painting your home. Really enjoyed updating your exterior, bringing new paint colors for an exciting and up to date paint color combination. Great seeing our painters preparation and weatherization of the outside of your Aurora home, getting ready for Colorado's next Winter we are already starting to see. Look forward with any other painting you may have, as we also provide interior painting one room, or entire home. Thanks again!
Repeat customer – I've used Eco-Paint's services several times in the past 13 years -- everything from an entire exterior paint job to deck and fence staining and even a deck-reconstructution project. Cal Phillips has gone the extra mile for a couple of times and I've always appreciated his work.
Thanks to EcoPaint my home looks better than ever. – Great work. Love my house.
Great painting/staining company – Cal was a great resource in getting our new home stained. It was a large project with a lot of exterior staining that needed to be updated. Cal's pricing was very competitive and his company's workmanship was excellent. He was very responsive and easy to work with making sure everything ended up exactly how we wanted it. The results were beautiful! I would highly recommend ECO paint for your staining needs. They were dependable, honest, friendly, knowledgeable and provided quality workmanship!

Veterinary Turn Off – We too love Dr. Jo....also loved Dr. Graves. We love practical animal care. We have now and always have had a large number of pets primarily rescues. As of three years ago they were all up to date on necessary veterinary care except two elderly never left the house cats. All were in line with scheduled appts however. We teetered at that point on returning because of being upset by Dr. Wilson's demeanor and preppiness w/regard to veterinary care and making us feel like irresponsible pet owners. Finally; we took the new puppy (an accident of birth) in for initial examination at 4-5 weeks old. Dr. Wilson freaked and read me the riot act quoting to me what I had already read online about the birth defect the puppy had. She refused to give the puppy any vaccinations and immediately referred the puppy to Tuft's. I was so upset when I left that none of our animals have been to the vet since. It just appears to me that the veterinarians here have lost site of the big picture. The vets in New London County that I have had occasion to deal with in person and on the phone are not in tune with the needs of the patient. The present themselves as being on the quest for big money.... I put out over $2000 in one month in Norwich at one vet for ROUTINE care for my pets....yet it still was not enough. They think if you are not getting their teeth done and nails done and hair done and falderal you are not responsible! Well guess what? I don't have my teeth up to date or my shots either! Maybe my parent's should be jailed?
The inevitable is coming around now. I have elderly pets who need necessary medical care and it is impossible to find a vet that is not going to need at least $200 just to walk through the door. Why? Because it has been more than six months since they were seen. That is so unfair. I don't get seen by the doctor that often! These are afterall pets and not humans! The economy is in a nightmare condition right now. Folks are unemployed. That does not mean they don't love their pets it just means they have monetary insufficiencies!
I am shopping for a new vet for all my kids. I need one that believes in necessary nonflambouyant care. I need a vet that is in it for the love of pets not to do the latest extreme measures. Guess my pets will continue to wait until I get back home where I grew up where the vet still cares. It sure would be cheaper to take them back there for their veterinary care. Yeah, I think that is what I will do.
I'd recommend this vet hospital – We love Dr. Jo! She's great with our pets and our kids - let them listen to the dogs heart, look at his teeth, spoke directly to them - it doesn't get any better.
I think Dr. Wilson gets a bad wrap in the previous review. Dr. Wilson is more clinical and less touchy feely but she's a great vet. When our 17 yr old dog had to be put down Dr. Wilson was the vet who was with us. She cried as much as we did and was very compassionate.
The receptionists have also been very nice and responsive each visit - and we have a new puppy so you know we're there alot!
Dr. Giel is a good vet and there is a but!!! – This is one veternarian hospital that I would not recommend to anyone unless Dr. Giel opened her own practice or went somewhere else. Other than that the other vets have no compension. The reception area not great especially with explanation of how to collect urine from your pet. They assume that everyone knows how to do this. Every since the oringal vet kinds left the place went down hill.

RNA interference (RNAi) is a rapidly emerging and powerful technique used to investigate gene function by degrading a specific mRNA target in a cell or organism and thus knocking out or knocking down the level of the encoded protein. This specific mRNA degradation is mediated by complementary double-stranded RNA. This article reviews RNAi and its relationship to other RNA-mediated mechanisms generally referred to as RNA silencing. This review also addresses the involvement of short interfering RNAs (siRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs), small temoral RNAs (stRNAs), and short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) in various RNA silencing mechanisms.

text: By any measure, movie legend Gloria Swanson was a bit deranged when she swooned at the camera and intoned, "All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up." But in those last moments of Sunset Boulevard, when she flashed that wide, defiant smile, one thing was for sure—her teeth were more than ready. We may not all be able to afford veneers at $1,000 a pop, but there are tips that can keep everyone grinning. And even though we're grown-ups, a few basic reminders never hurt. (What would reality TV reveal about your flossing habits?) Prevention Basics When it comes to your mouth, the old "ounce of prevention" advice was never so pertinent. Millions of bacteria make their home there—millions. All these pesky little guys need is some minor sugary encouragement, and before you know it, you've got a pathogenic playground in your mouth. To keep bacteria under control, brushing and flossing are obvious and fundamental. These two simple steps remove the sticky film of plaque (bacteria) around and between your teeth. Left on too long, it hardens into tartar, and we all know how unpleasant it is to have that scraped off. Insider's tip: Dry brush your teeth before regular brushing, says Trisha O'Hehir, RDH, author of The Toothpaste Secret. Start with a dry toothbrush and begin behind the bottom teeth. Brush until your mouth feels clean (don't forget your tongue), and then rinse the brush with water, add toothpaste, and brush again. One U.S. study of 126 participants reduced tartar by 63 percent with this technique—better than using tartar-control toothpaste. Always use a soft brush to avoid damaging teeth and gums, and change the brush every three months. Read the labels on toothpastes and mouthwashes; some ingredients are toxic. (If a poison control center is mentioned in fly-speck-sized print, steer clear!) And if you're getting a little careless with the flossing, consider the kissability factor: Flossing promotes appealingly fresh breath. Snacking 101 It doesn't take an oral surgeon to figure out the root cause of most cavities. "Bugs [i.e., bacteria] plus sugar equals acid production," says Michael P. Bonner, DDS. "These acids can dissolve enamel as well as tooth-root structure and result in a cavity." While sticky candy is no friend to teeth, snacks like potato chips and cookies may be even more harmful, according to Lisa Drayer, MA, RD, author of The Beauty Diet. "Simple sugars are relatively easy to wash away, but food particles from starches tend to get lodged in between our teeth, providing a carbohydrate feast for plaque," Drayer explains. Sugary sodas also bathe your teeth in sugar—up to ten teaspoons per can. Some drinks, like coffee, red wine, and colas stain teeth too. Substitute water or green tea instead, recommends Drayer. A bonus with green tea: In addition to numerous health benefits, it stops the growth of decay-causing bacteria. Better snack alternatives? Anything that increases the flow of saliva, the mouth's brilliant backup plan for flushing out food particles and neutralizing acid. Reach for carrots, apples, or a small piece of hard cheese. Insider's tip: There's also a healthy newcomer on the snack horizon—xylitol. This natural sweetener crops up in most fruits and vegetables, but it's becoming more common in products ranging from candy to gum to toothpaste and can even be used in place of table sugar. Studies have examined xylitol's unusual carbon structure and its effectiveness in treating diabetes, obesity, and upper respiratory issues. It also benefits oral health by reducing cavities and bacteria, and chewing gum made with xylitol prevents plaque from sticking to enamel. How does it do this? "[Mouth] germs use excess sugars to build a sticky meshwork [over teeth]," explains John Peldyak, DMD. However, xylitol is more closely related to sugars with a 5-carbon structure, which acid-forming mouth germs can't use. "Over time, xylitol weakens the harmful germs . . ., and the result is less acid, less plaque, fewer cavities, and healthier teeth and gums," he says. Look for products sweetened primarily or entirely with xylitol. Supplement Your Smile Finally, supplement your diet with oral health nutrients like vitamin C and omega-3 fatty acids (which promote healthy gums), calcium and magnesium (which work together to fight decay), and vitamin D (which helps absorb calcium). Dr. Bonner also includes coenzyme Q10 or CoQ10 (required to form gum tissue; helps reduce gingivitis), bioflavonoids (that help make collagen, the basis of gums and bone), and B complex (to promote overall oral health) among his list of top nutrients for a robust, hygienic mouth. A gleaming smile makes a great impression. It's often the first thing we notice about each other and the last thing we remember. Are you ready for your close-up?

Ouray County Clerk, an election "rock star." Well, that is how a top official from the Co. Secretary of State's office referred to Michelle Nauer.
Judd Choate visited last week to evaluate the Ouray County voting process under the new system created by recent legislation, including all mail-in ballots and same day voter registration. While working with one regular office staff absent due to illness and underfunded for volunteer election judges, Nauer managed to accurately and efficiently process 2,142 ballots, with a few still outstanding for signature verification.
Two continuous cameras and team (Republican and Democrat) handling of each ballot from its arrival to its final tabulation, while tedious, insured that no legitimate ballot went uncounted. When not being processed, every ballot was maintained in a locked box in a secured room. Few people realize the
complexity of the voting process, especially in a small county with four different ballot styles for the school board elections and a new set of rules and procedures governing the process. Congratulations to all voters who cast a ballot. You made your voice heard.
– John W. Nelson

Valenciennes v Evian Thonon Gaillard: Preview
Valenciennes go into tomorrow's clash with Evian boosted by the news that coach Daniel Sanchez has signed a one-year contract extension with the club.
Sanchez, 59, joined the club last year and has committed himself to the Stade du Hainaut until June 2014 after holding talks with club president Jean-Raymond Legrand in recent weeks.
``There was the desire to reach an agreement and it was signed,'' Sanchez told the club website.
``The situation is clear now, we will continue together. It is a good thing, we work in good conditions with a very good relationship.''
The new deal is reward for a satisfactory first half of the season, which sees VA lying 10th in Ligue 1 as they approach their final match before the winter break, which may have come at a good time given their depleted ranks.
Foued Kadir is suspended tomorrow, while Gil is set to join Jean-Louis Leca, Remi Gomis, Gael Danic, Dusan Djuric, Abdou Camara and Mody Traore on a lengthy injury list.
Evian too have a host of players missing, with Cedric Barbosa suspended and Daniel Wass, Kevin Berigaud, Jonathan Mensah and Ali M'Madi injured.
And striker Yannick Sagbo is aware they will face a difficult task to repeat last year's 3-0 win in the same fixture.
``From one year to another, the matches are not the same,'' he told etgfc.com.
``Valenciennes are going well this season and will want to show what they can do, especially at home, to finish the year.
``They are strong at home, despite their defeat to Paris St Germain last time out. They have good players and are quick going forward and, at home, they will really want to win.
``Despite what certain people are saying, it is not particularly a good time to play them. They need points because, despite their good start to the season, they are still one of our rivals for survival.''
VA's 26-point tally leaves them nine clear of their 16th-placed opponents, who in turn are three clear of the relegation zone.
