As I've been aligning with my two million dollar manifestation, I've been referencing the old Abraham-Hicks Phoenix-Yuma-San Diego analogy quite frequently, because it helps me catch myself when my thoughts are causing me to turn around and head back to Phoenix (i.e. when I am focusing on the not having of my desire, thereby holding myself apart from it).
For those that may be new to Abraham-Hicks and/or Law of Attraction (and for anyone that just wants to feel good) I thought I'd share a transcript of Abraham using the analogy so that it makes more sense to you. I searched Youtube for a video on the subject, but I haven't come across one just yet; and as fun as it sounds to go back and listen through my own library of their older material to find a clip for you all, it would take quite a while (although I may just do it anyway for the fun of it).
In the meantime, our friends at powerfulintentions.org have dutifully transcribed this and a whole slew of other fun Abe analogies for us to enjoy.
I've copied and pasted the Phoenix-Yuma-San Diego analogy below, but if you're looking for more Abraham-Hicks and Law of Attraction material, it's worth checking out Powerful Intention's site, they have a whole bunch of valuable information there.
Enjoy! ♥
Phoenix-Yuma-San Diego Story
8.27.2005 workshop excerpt
"So the keyword that we want you to remember (or phrase) is: vibrational relativity. You've got to close that vibrational gap between the vibration of what you want and source that is in agreement with it, and where you are practicing your thoughts. So, you could say you want to close the gap between your desire and your belief (a belief is just a thought you keep thinking). Or you could say you wanna close the gap in your vibration which means you just can't feel bad about something you want and be in the place of letting it in.
As Jerry & Esther are travelling from Phoenix to San Diego, they are always so eager to get over to San Diego. They were there for a month. It was seventy degrees mostly. It got all the way up to seventy nine degree one day. They're right on the water, the wind feels wonderful. They can hardly wait to get over there. And as they're travelling from Phoenix across there (it's about four hundred miles), they know the journey. They know they have to keep pointing in the direction west (the direction of San Diego) and keep moving and that eventually they'll get there. And even though most of that four hundred miles they're not there, they don't feel unhappy during the time that they're on their way to where they want to be. And we want you to understand that you've got to do that with all of your journeys. If you're sick, even if you're really sick; you've got to be more joyful on your way to wellness. And we think the reason you're not more joyful on your way to wellness is because you're not sure that you're really on your way to wellness because the doctor may have told you you can't get well from this, this is incurable. And we say: He does not know. He does not understand vibrational relativity. He does not understand if he's telling you that you've got something that is incurable; he does not understand that the illness caused you to launch a rocket of desire for wellness that source came into utter and absolute and instant agreement with and if you'll come into agreement; you'll be well. It is our promise to you. You cannot not be. It is law; when you close that vibrational gap you must have what you are now sending the one signal about, you see.
But if you standing in a place where you are sick and you are on your way to wellness or trying to be pointed in that direction, what's happening with many of you is: you haven't figured out how to quantify that journey. You can't tell whether you're headed toward wellness or away from it. Can you imagine Jerry and Esther geting halfway to San Diego (in about Yuma Arizona) and being so disappointed that they are not yet in San Diego that they get all disoriented and turn around and go back to Phoenix? So they just go Phoenix-Yuma, Phoenix-Yuma, Phoenix-Yuma, Phoenix-Yuma and then they say: San Diego is incurable. It's an impossible quest. And we say: No it isn't. Just point in the direction of it and keep going. Don't keep turning around and going in the opposite direction. Well, you say relative to their journey across the desert, that's ridiculous. Of course they can tell which way to go, there are signposts. They know the way. But sometimes "the" way from sickness to wellness or "the way" from not enough money to enough money or "the way" from a rotten relationship to a wonderful relationship; you haven't figured out how to quantify your journey because you're listening to that one over there and that one over there and that one over there and what we want you to do is leave here today being able to quantify every journey by understanding that when you want something source says yes to it and offers a strong signal that when you line up with you feel good. How hard is that? (silent pause) Source is over here saying: We know what you want, we've been watching you; we've heard everything and we're offering a signal about what you want and you can tell by the way you feel when you're on bead with that signal or when you're not. Which means when you're happy: on the trail. When you're appreciating: on the trail. When you're joyful: on the trail. When you're ornery: going the other way. When you're angry: going the other way. When you're afraid: going the other way. Good feeling is on the way; not good feeling is not on the way: this is the way you quantify your journey, you see.
So, Abraham, does that mean that I want more money and I've been asking for it. Lord knows, I've been asking for it! For years I've been asking for it!. And we say: We know. We've been hearing you. And you should see the pile of money that's lined up waiting for you. (audience laughter) And the circumstances and events that have been arranged on your behalf. And then you say: But, where is the money? I need the money now. And we say: As you beat that drum that makes you feel worse, you've turned around and you are "going back to Phoenix". As you do your best to feel a little better, now you're on "the way". This is the thing that you have been missing that from now on you won't be missing so this journey across whatever desert it is is going to be fast for you from now on, it is our promise to you; the thing that you have been missing is: you cannot jump from fear or dispair all the way into bright-eyed-bushy-tailed-sunshine-lollypops-and-roses-appreciation. And when you try to do that you fall in the ditch. Because the vibration of fear (of not having enough money) and the vibration of exhilaration (of having ALL the money in the world that you could want) are two very different vibrations. They feel really different. There is a huge vibrational difference."

Since I started this journey I've been doing really good about ignoring what-is and reminding myself of my Truths around money: That there are no limitations in terms of how or how much money I can receive or how soon I can receive it; that this is a vibrational journey, not an action journey; that there is always, always, always a cooperative component to every desire, and so on.
And as a result I have been seeing some small increases in the money I'm earning at my job, and I also received a surprise $200 that I wrote about last week. So these Truths (beliefs) are starting to be reflected in my physical reality, and I couldn't be more thrilled about that.
However, today I got some disturbing news about the installment agreement for my back taxes that I had defaulted on, as well as the amount I owe for 2011, and admittedly I temporarily allowed this news to suck me out of the Vortex.
But you know what's so cool? Even as part of my mind was going into total panic mode, that feeling/thought process didn't consume me. Because even as negative thoughts were racing around in my head about what is going to happen as a result of this situation, I kept hearing "Phoenix San Diego" 'playing' in the background.
And that made me laugh. And that gave me a little relief. And from there I was able to say to myself, "No, I don't want to go back to Phoenix at this point, I'm too close to San Diego."
And then I re-reminded myself of those aforementioned Truths about the nature of reality, and in a very short time I was able to soothe myself back into the Vortex. And it feels so good to be back!
Not only that, but I even feel a little excited about this seeming obstacle, because some other Truths I hold include that I'm always taken care of and things always, always, always work out for me; so rather than looking at this situation as a measure of the distance I am from my desire to have the money, I feel like it's a sign of just how close I am to having it.
And I love that I am able to genuinely feel this way about it, not only because it feels better than worrying, but because it's a huge shift in my perspective from even just a short while ago. And as we know, physical reality is just a reflection (or extension) of our perspective, and once the perspective changes, the reflection has to as well.
So I'm looking forward to seeing continued improvements in that reflection. In the meantime, I'm continuing to focus on being easy about it all, going general as needed, and allowing the law of attraction to work for me. Because it does anyway, so I might as well use it to experience what I prefer.
Makes sense, right?
Thanks for co-creating this exciting journey with me and for just being awesome in general.
I Love and appreciate you all immensely. ♥

I like to say "the pie's the limit" instead of "the sky's the limit" not only because it amuses me, but because it reminds me that just as we choose which ingredients to put in our pie, we also choose which limits we accept for ourselves.
Personally, I choose none when it comes to limitations, and I choose buttery, brown sugary pecan filling when it comes to my pie. With a scoop of vanilla on top. ♥

"Now, this is the key to your Deliberate Creating: See yourself as this magnet, attracting unto you the way you feel at any point in time. When you feel clear and in control, you will attract circumstances of clarity. When you feel happy, you will attract circumstances of happiness. When you feel healthy, you will attract circumstances of health. When you feel prosperous, you will attract circumstances of prosperity. When you feel loved, you will attract circumstances of love. Literally, the way you feel is your point of attraction."

Hey everybody!
It's about that time again! I'm ready for another journey/challenge and even more so I'm ready to align myself with what I desire—which, among other things, is to easily and joyfully receive two million dollars free and clear.
This two million dollars was one of the things I set forth to manifest (and didn't) in the last 100 Day Challenge, and it's still hanging over my head—not in the sense that it's bothering me that I didn't align with it, but because I still desire it and I know that, as Abraham says, 'If I want it I can have it,' so there's no reason to continue holding myself apart from it.
In reflecting on why I didn't manifest this two million dollars last time around, it comes down to the same thing everything comes down to: my beliefs.
I was sort of brainstorming what those limiting beliefs are a few moments ago, and here is what I came up with:
– Longshot/fantasy to receive that much money, especially as a gift.
– Didn't work before, so why would it work now?
– Can't get exactly what I want when I want it.
– I don't know anyone with that kind of money to just give away.
– I certainly can't earn that much money in a short amount of time.
– Winning the money comes with consequences/publicity; someone could try to harm me to get the money.
– General belief in lack.
– Too big or too much to manifest (belief in limitation).
In looking at the types of beliefs that are floating through my mind day in and day out, it's no wonder that I didn't manifest this money in the past, so in this journey I plan to use EFT to release these beliefs while instilling and reinforcing beliefs that counter them and support the having of my desire:
+ If I am able to imagine something then it is not out of my reach because physical reality is just a projection of my inner world.
+ I am literally not the same person I was in the past, I'm a completely different version; a version that has learned a lot and released a lot of resistance since the last time I approached this desire. So, whatever happened (or didn't happen) in the past is completely irrelevant to my now.
+ Limiting belief is the only reason I don't experience having exactly what I want how and when I want it. If I change the belief then physical reality has no choice but to reflect that change.
+ I don't need to consciously know of the person who might give me the money at this time, if that's how I am to line up with having it. All I need to know is that if I can imagine it then I can experience it in physical reality. The hows and whos will take care of themselves.
+ I don't need to consciously know how I would earn that much money at once, if that's how I am to line up with having it. All I need to know is that if I can imagine it then I can experience it in physical reality, and the hows will take care of themselves.
+ The only reason something negative would come of winning the money is if I believe that to be so; if I change the belief then physical reality has no choice but to reflect that change.
+ I am an Infinite Being living in an Infinite Universe. The only reason I experience lack is a belief in lack. If I change the belief to one of infinite abundance, then the experience must change as well.
+ The only limitation in terms of the amount of money I can receive (or anything else for that matter) is based on my own belief in limitation. If I change the belief then physical reality has no choice but to reflect that change.
In addition to changing my beliefs about receiving and having this two million dollars, I am also going to be focusing on the second part of that Abe quote I mentioned earlier: "…if you get out of the way."
This is something I haven't yet mastered (obviously, or else I'd be out spending my money right now instead of writing about manifesting it LOL), so I'm looking forward to further releasing Ego from it's previously designated duties of constantly watching physical reality for evidence of lack, limitation, and general not having of what I desire. Even if that doesn't line me up with the money, it will certainly line me up with more inner peace, which is itself worth its weight in gold…if it weighed anything, that is.
The good news is, this should be relatively easy to do, or at least easier than it has been in the past, because during this past month or so I've been doing a lot of releasing of resistance to what-is and the possibility that it will never get that much better, financially anyway.
I know that sounds a bit grim and I certainly don't expect things to not improve, I had to go there so that I could see that it doesn't really matter, it's not the end of the world, and it doesn't mean I can't be happy.
Doing so has helped me take the pressure off of manifesting more money, which is allowing me to allow more rather than try to force physical reality into submission, which has pretty much been my M.O. before then. And I'm starting to see improvement, so it must have been necessary.
As a result, with this particular journey/challenge I believe I'll be able to sit back and allow much more, to let the grid fill itself in, to stay general (or at least go general when details start feeling crappy), and to approach it more from a perspective of fun than that of pressure and desperate need.
In that same vein, I'm not going to put a time limit on this journey. When I'm lined up with it, I'll see it, so whenever that is is good enough for me…because it kinda has to be, because I'm not going to see it a minute sooner than that.
Well, that's where I'm at, and I'm looking forward to seeing where this journey takes me.
I appreciate you all for allowing me to share with you and you with me; being connected with my Soul Fam is not just worth its weight in gold, it's absolutely priceless.

Today I intend to feel the best I can feel and extract the very best I can extract from what-is. I intend to find the best feeling information to read, the best feeling music to listen to, the best feeling actions to take, and the best feeling people to interact with.
I intend to find the best feeling thoughts, imbue them with the best feeling feelings, reiterate and reinforce them so that they become best feeling beliefs, and revel in the Knowing that those best feeling beliefs will then be reflected as a best feeling life experience.
Today I intend to be abundance. I intend to be well-being. I intend to be ease. I intend to be Knowing. And I intend to be free.
Today I intend to be Love and find that Love reflected back to me in my world. I intend to remain in my Knowing at all times that I am Source, I am the only Power in my Universe, and that that Power is Love.
Today I intend for this day to be the very best day of my life thus far, and I intend the same for everyone and everything in my Universe.
And so it is. ♥

Bashar teaches that in order to line up with our desires, we need to "act as if" we already have them. But how many of us really do that, at least consistently enough to experience our desires in a timely fashion?
Personally, I find it challenging to act as if I'm the "having" version of me, especially when it comes to money…especially when that money is urgently "needed" (I know, need is such an ugly word), so I came up with a very simple exercise to help remind myself of the difference between the having and not-having versions of me, and to help me identify which version of myself I'm "acting as if" in any given moment.
If you find that you're still not seeing the results you're trying to manifest (or just want to manifest them more quickly), this exercise may benefit you as well. I'll give an example using my own situation, but it works the same for absolutely anything you are desiring to experience.
EXERCISE: Take out a sheet of paper (or open a document) and make two columns. Title the left-side column "Not Having Version," and the right-side column "Having Version."
Now in the not-having column, list all the qualities of that version of yourself. What are your thoughts? What are your beliefs? What are your feelings? What are your actions?
If you are doing this exercise at all, then you are probably the not-having version of yourself right now, so it should be pretty easy to fill up this side of the page.
After you've completed the not-having side, do the same for the having side. Since you are likely not the having version of yourself right now, you may need to spend a little time conjuring the feelings, thoughts, actions, and beliefs of this version of yourself. But the good news is, the more time you spend imagining what the having version of yourself is like, the more you are "acting as if" you are this version (there is no difference between imagining and being in terms of attraction).
I have a strong desire to receive $3,000 easily and effortlessly, and to have it now and use it any way I choose.
Here is the not-having version of myself:
-Pressure to work more than I want to
-Defeat knowing I don't have enough hours in the day to make that amount by the time it's needed
-Trying to become the $3,000 Having version of me
-Scared of not having enough to cover everything
-Angry with myself for not being the Having version
-Disappointed in not having what I need
-Doubt/Disbelief that I can have the money when and how I prefer
As you can see, the not-having version of me spends a whole lot of time thinking about and feeling the not having.
Now, here is my having version:
-Ready for anything!
-In Love with life!
-Writing, playing, cleaning, organizing, listening to music, and doing anything else I want, when I want!
-Total belief I can have the money when and how I want it (because I already have it)
I felt a shift within myself just writing the words that describe the having version of me, and I think it also illustrates the point that Abraham has made time and time again that manifestation really is about the feeling, because the feeling is the main difference between the having and not-having versions.
Give this a try yourself and see if it helps you stay in having mode more of the time, so that you can experience what you prefer that much more quickly and easily.
One last thought: If you are still having difficulty acting as if you have what you prefer even after identifying the qualities of that version of yourself, I recommend using EFT or some other modality to release the list items in the not-having column. It is also important to note that belief is the foundation for any experience, meaning if you don't believe you can or should have your desire, then you will never allow yourself to experience it, no matter how much you "act as if."
So, before you even get into the acting as if part of this equation, you may want to double check with yourself to ensure that you actually believe you can and should have what you are desiring. If that checks out, then just remain in having mode as often as possible and you'll see your desire manifest in no time. If not, then go back to the EFT or other tool of choice to release those limiting beliefs and convince yourself that you can and deserve to have whatever you want (and that you already do have it).

Today I celebrate having my $3,000, $10,000, $100,000, and $1 million. Today I celebrate having received each amount easily and effortlessly and within the timing I prefer. Today I celebrate knowing that each amount I desire is already (and equally) available to me in every possible combination of ways and from every number of possible sources, each one just waiting for me to activate it through my desire and belief so that I may experience the having and using of it however I choose.
Today I live my life like it's Golden! Because it is! Today I celebrate Having! Because I do! Today I celebrate Knowing! Because I do! Today I celebrate being Source! Because I Am! Today I celebrate experiencing Myself through the unique personality/ego construct that is Tresa Rae! And today I celebrate knowing that it is my (the personality/ego construct Tresa Rae) choice how to go about experiencing Myself (Source)!
Today I celebrate my freedom! Today I celebrate my utter limitlessness, knowing that absolutely all choices, all versions of reality are equally and easily accessible, just waiting to be activated by my desire and belief so that they may be experienced by me. Today I choose to activate and experience those versions of reality that I prefer!
Today I choose Love! Today I choose Freedom! Today I choose Fun! Today I choose Abundance, and Well-being, and Beauty, and Confidence, and Security and Comfort and Ease.
And today I choose staying in my Knowing of Who I Am and what I Am here as this personality/ego construct Tresa Rae to do—anything I choose! And I choose for this day to be the very best day of my life thus far.
And so it is!

Greetings everyone!
I've just had yet another big a-ha moment that has helped me shift my belief in the ability to manifest exactly what I prefer to yet another deeper state of Knowing, and of course I couldn't wait to share this revelation with all of you.
In my last article about thought manifestation, I talked about how simple the process of moving an idea from thought, to thoughtform, to manifestation in physical form really is, and that an idea can be likened to water in its various states of manifestation in that whether water exists as a solid, liquid, or vapor, it is equally real and existent in any one of those states. I made a handy-dandy info-graphic to illustrate that fact:
This comparison helped deepen my belief in the concept that every single thing we can imagine as an idea can be actualized in physical reality because it is already as real as it's ever going to be in its thought state, just like water is as real in its vapor state as it is in its solid form as ice.
Not only that, but it also helped me realize that all ideas are equally real and equally able to appear in physical form, so in the example that I used of my own desire to "earn" a living receiving blog donations as opposed to doing so working at a traditional job, I came to the understanding that there is no difference in terms of either idea manifesting in physical form, and that the only deciding factor as to which would be my reality is my belief—the driving force behind any manifestation.
Although this analogy was extremely useful in helping me believe that I really can create any reality I desire—and I even received my very first blog donation after posting that article, which was an absolute thrill—I still found myself with some resistance around how quickly those desires can be actualized.
In fact, the idea of time, or timing, has been somewhat of a point of contention for me, considering I've been lining up with a fair amount of financial contrast these past few years and as the bills come due each month, and then become late, and then things like utilities and car insurance become candidates for disconnection and cancellation, well, let's just say that I've created quite a bit of excitement for myself, albeit not the kind of excitement that I particularly prefer…much less desire more of moving into this next month.
So I continue with my daily EFT sessions, tapping on these issues so that I may be free of them once and for all and live the joyful, easy, abundant, and fun(!) life that I KNOW I came here to experience.
As I revisited the money issue tonight, I recognized that my shifting from the other night has pretty much "stuck" as far as the belief that all ideas, whether the idea is a lot of money or just a little (castle or a button, as they say) are equally and easily manifestable is concerned. I feel confident now that I can receive as much or as little as I desire, it's all the same in terms of the process and causal factors that bring all ideas into physical form (beliefs).
And I'm also pretty solid in my belief that all cooperative components exist as part of the original idea, sort of like a package deal. In other words, and again using my situation as an example, the people that are willing and capable of giving me thousands of dollars already exist as part of the idea of me having thousands of dollars, just as those who are not willing to give me anything are tied into the idea-bundle of me not having the money I desire.
All the details of every idea are always included in the package and they're all here, right now; and which idea-bundle that ends up being experienced as physical reality once again always (and only) depends on which is fueled with enough belief to cause it to move from its vapor to liquid to solid physical form (metaphorically speaking).
But, even knowing all this, I still found myself worrying about whether I would receive the amount of money I desire soon enough to avoid those pesky disconnections and cancellations I was talking about a moment ago. So, naturally, I started tapping on that. And not long into the session, I realized that timing is—are you ready for this?—just another cooperative component included in the all-inclusive package deal of the overall idea!!!
Oh, wow, when this occurred to me I felt a HUGE wave of relief and even more confidence in my ability to manifest what I need when I need it. Because I am such a visual learner, I made another info-graphic to help illustrate this point:
When you consider that having the money desired (or any desire) AND having the willing person(s) to give it to you AND having it by a certain time is all ONE idea-bundle, well then there's just no question of whether or not it can come OR can come in time, is there? Because it's all ONE freakin' thing!!! No variables!!! No reason for doubt or concern!!!
Although this should've been obvious after I realized that all cooperative components come bundled in the idea package, I had not previously been looking at time (or timing) as one of those cooperative components included in the deal; I was looking at it as an outside variable and as such created a whole bunch of uncertainty, worry, and doubt for myself as a result.
But of course, there are no outside factors and there are no variables (unless you believe in them). The only causal factor, and I don't mind being redundant here because I don't think it can be stressed enough, is our beliefs. Period. And so, if we say we want such and such at a certain time or within a certain amount of time and believe that we can have it as such, then we can. Period. There are just absolutely no limitations as to what we can experience for ourselves. None!
And I love Knowing and feeling the freedom of that more than words could ever express.
Well, once again I have to thank you, my precious Law of Attraction/Soul Family for allowing me to share with you today, and I do hope that the next time you find yourself concerned over manifesting something within a certain amount of time this information will provide you with some relief and the absolute confidence that you really can have anything you desire and within any time frame you choose, because everything exists, ALL cooperative components included, right here and right now. It's done!

LOS ANGELES — Authorities say a magnitude-5.1 earthquake has shaken the Los Angeles area.
The U.S. Geological Survey originally estimated the quake to be a magnitude-5.3. It said the Friday quake struck at about 9:11 p.m. and was centered near Brea in Orange County — about 20 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles.
About an hour earlier, a 3.6 quake hit nearby in the city of La Habra.
There were no immediate reports of damage.

Phyllis Brown: A Pioneer in HPLC
In the 1960s, Phyllis Brown dared to do what few chromatographers did: to apply high performance liquid chromatography — then still in its infancy — to real samples, particularly complicated ones like blood. She did it because she had the vision to see the potential of the technique in the biological sciences.
In an interview with Karen M. Usher of West Chester University, Brown talks about what it was like to be a chromatography pioneer, and how she figured out what she had to do to get recognition in a male-dominated field.

Irony is dead — at least in the world of alternative metal. The organizers of the Family Values Tour shot it through the eyeball when they booked these Texas-based Christian rockers to play alongside the likes of Korn and Bury Your Dead in 2006. See what I mean? What's the point of ironically naming your rock 'n' roll event the Family Values Tour when one of your headliners does, in fact, embrace family values? That's like saying to Einstein: "Wrong answer, genius." Currently touring in support of 2009's Memento Mori album, the band has never officially copped to the "Christian rock" label — even after lead singer Lacey Mosley asked fans to pray for Korn in a 2006 interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network. Later, guitarist Sameer Bhattacharya went on the band's MySpace blog and played coy: If Flyleaf is a Christian band, then "we're signed to a Jewish label and all Steven Spielberg movies, like Jurassic Park and E.T., are Jewish movies." Maybe, but when was the last time A&M/Octone CEO James Diener went on TV and name-checked the prophet Elijah? And how many times has Spielberg asked us to say a Birkhat Ha-Gomel for Mel Gibson? Christian is as Christian does.

AMD CEO downed by lost server-chip business
There's a lot of speculation about why Dirk Meyer, chief executive for more than two of the most tumultuous years in AMD's turbulent history, was shown the door last week. Everyone is speculating that it was about AMD not fielding a proper processor to ride the tablet wave like a stoned-out surfer dude. But if you read between …
Intel can buy sales
No news here. Intel is able to buy sales even when AMD has a superior product. Meyer and the board had different POVs regarding the future so they dismissed him. Life goes on and so will AMD.
They continue to deliver products that consumers desire at competitive prices. With the new combined CPU/GPU chips AMD is likely to gain more market share. They have a year or so lead on Intel so they should use it to their advantage.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
A few years ago I swore off aluminum (pronounced Al-U-min-E-um) in my armpits and I began a serach for the perfect deodorant. I started with a woman's deodorant I recalled being called... Crystal Clean? Sadly it was discontinued by the higher-ups at the faceless corporation that produced it. But thank the adolescent Jesus (the one who goes missing for a few hours and tells Joseph that he can always be found in his Father's house... the Church [or Synagouge at the time]) I stumbled an amazing deodorant, even better than my first! Rub this puppy on and you'll smell totally unscented... everyone's goal right?... to be a blank slate for people to project their own odorous desires upon... I go so far as to buy as much as I can afford on each trip just in case something goes wrong in the supply chain I will at least have a three year supply.In conclusion, I love it... I really, really do.


text: Chicago Sun-Times Apologizes for 'Racially Tinged' Asiana Crash Headline Print article Send a Tip by Warner Todd Huston 10 Jul 2013 post a comment The Chicago Sun-Times has apologized for a headline pun used in reporting the Asiana Flight 214 airliner crash that seemed racist to some Asians. Asiana Flight 214 crashed in San Francisco on Saturday, June 6, but in its front page report on the crash, the Chicago Sunday Sun-Times blared a headline that read "FRIGHT 214." The Asian American Journalists Association was not amused by the play on words, wondering if the Sun-Times understood that changing the "L" in "FLIGHT" to an "R" could easily be perceived as a play on the stereotypical difficulty of some Asians to pronounce the letter "L." "While we at the Asian American Journalists Association are willing to give the Sun-Times the benefit of the doubt, the headline used to accompany the paper's coverage was certainly unfortunate. An editor should have caught the racially tinged wording," said AAJA's Bobby Calvan in a public post on the organization's website. The Sun-Times quickly apologized for the headline, saying, "There was nothing intentional on our part to play off any stereotypes. If anybody was offended by that, we are sorry." "We were trying to convey the obviously frightening situation of that landing," said the paper's Publisher and Editor-in-Chief, Jim Kirk. While accepting the paper's apology, the AAJA also complained of a lack of diversity in the media today. "If the Sun-Times' copy desk is like many others in newsrooms across the nation, it probably lacked the diversity of voices on staff that might have questioned the appropriateness of the headline," the AAJA's Calvan wrote.

So Who's Going to Use Google Chrome?
Comments (2)
Shuo Cheng
Google use Chrome exactly the same way as Microsoft using IE, Chrome will be a platform to sell Google's search product. I used Chrome few weeks then turn back to Firefox, Chrome is still a toy, but I won't uninstall it, I'm waiting for Chrome 2. Our statistic shows Chrome users has no increase since it's released.
Antony Mayfield
I think that this about openness and competition.
The way I see it, Google doesn\'t need to see entering the browser market as a zero-sum game, the way Microsoft did when it set out to leverage its desktop dominance to squeeze out competition and control the way people sw the web.
It sees its browser as a way of improving the market, the way that people use the web.

THE S&P 500 AT 100? NOT AS FARFETCHED AS YOU THINK 0 commentsOct 8, 2011 3:20 PM | about stocks: UUP, UDN, FXE, ERO, URR, ULE, EUO, DRR, FXA, FXB, FXC, FXD, FXF, FXEN, FXY, JYF, AUNZ, CYB, GLD, CNY, USO, DUG, USL, NBO, DBV, ICI, CEW, SLV, OIL, SPY, SDS, RSW, BXDC, SPXU, SH, DIA, EWC, EWA, TLT, XHB, ITM, IGOV, VGK, TBT, GSG, DBC, CORN, ICN, SZR, BZF, GRU, DAX-OLD, FRC, DB, SAN, BNO, ENI
The following is a break from my usual weekly review/preview pieces
Ok, we know things are getting worse before they get better. You've heard it before. There's the global slowdown, the EU crisis threatening to become a global one, etc.
So the big question on everyone's mind is, how bad can it get? How low will it go?
Conceivably a lot lower than most believe, even if we just look at a few very basic bits of technical and fundamental evidence.
There are long term technical and fundamental indicators that the current downturn is part of a much longer term move lower. The following is far from a conclusive, thesis. Rather, it's a starting point for both further study and formation of long term view of where markets are headed.
Chart 1 below shows a nearly 20% drop since recent May 2011(NYSE:C) high, which has provided a distinct lower high that confirms the bearish double top pattern formed by the highs in 2000 (NYSE:A) and 2007(NYSE:B).
Chart 1: S&P 500 MONTHLY CHART DECEMBER 1999 - SEPTEMBER 2011 04 oct 08 2054
Points to note:
1. We have additional confirmation of a long term downward momentum from the index having broken below strong support in the 1200-1144 range which included:
- The 50% fib retracement level (not shown in order to keep the chart from being too cluttered)
- The 20 (yellow), 50 (red), 100, (purple) and 200 (pink) month EMAs.
Again, those are MONTHLY EMAs that should provide strong support, and the uptrend on which that Fib retracement was based was formed over 6 years. These are serious long term support levels. Gone.
A valid bearish double top reversal pattern needs to be preceded by a long uptrend. We've got that too.
In Chart 2 below, of the S&P 500 dating back to 1950, we see that long prior uptrend. You could measure it from around, 1990, 1987, or around 1975. The point is, the double top was preceded by a long uptrend, which in turn was part of an even longer term uptrend over the course of the entire period covered.
Chart 2: S&P 500 04 1950 – 30 SEPTEMBER 2011 oct 06 1637
This 60+ year perspective highlights how prominent the 2000 – 2007 double top is, how clearly it stands out compared to earlier topping patterns.
Here's the scary part. The general rule of thumb for Head and Shoulders patterns is that the potential pullback is double the distance from the tops to the neckline. The tops (A and B in chart 1) were at about 1500, the neckline was at about 800, a 700 point drop or 46%! Another 700 point drop from that neckline at 800 would bring the S&P 500 to 100, a 93% drop!
Obviously you wouldn't base your long term portfolio strategy on this one indicator, though.
Still, there is significant fundamental evidence that markets are in a multi-year downtrend. See two of the most popular financial books in recent years:

Sara was beyond amazing. I did not give her very much guidance since I didn't really know what I wanted for a lot of the flower types, but everything turned out even better than I had expected. She took a simple idea that I had for centerpieces and made it amazing. The best part was that I could tell she had actually been listening to what I wanted, she just did even more on top of that in terms of flower types and creativity. I highly recommend her.

Sara did a beautiful job on the flowers! She listened to everything and made sure the flowers looked just like I had describe to her. She was very knowledgeable and helpful when it came to picking flowers that were available and could stand up to the August heat. She was professional and made it a smooth transition when dropping the flowers off at the venue. She went above and beyond! I was so excited to see my bouquet and the bridesmaids' when she dropped them off to us at the hotel. I loved everything she did! She made boutonnieres, bouquets, centerpieces, and a cake topper. All were amazing! I'd recommend Sarah and The Tulip Tree to everyone.

I will be perfectly honest that I was not much into flowers before my wedding, didn't understand why people always got so excited about them and spent so much money on them. I am now convinced this is because I had never seen flowers like the ones Sara from Tulip Tree delivered on my wedding day. It brought me tears in an instant; I was absolutely struck with their beauty and size. It turned out to be the favorite thing about my wedding (which says a lot as I loved everything :) ) I received so many complements throughout the night, even from other guests who worked at florists & nurseries. No one has ever seen a peony more huge or more gorgeous than the ones from Tulip Tree. The flowers were bright and breath-taking and literally the talk of the night.
Sara was professional; I never had to worry about a thing. She set up beautifully, hundreds of boxes and vases, votives, jars, and displays, she had it all taken care of, and took it down as well. The details were perfect, from the fabrics wrapping the bouquets, to the boutonnieres and the adorable purses with flowers for the moms. I gave her my vision and she understood right away and took my few pictures from pinterest or blogs and turned them into a dream come true - better than anything I could have even dreamed up, actually. Definitely better than anything I've ever seen. She should 100% be the top florist in Cincinnati. I have never been more excited about a vendor or a service. I will be using her for every event in the future and I am sure that all of my 200 guests will be doing the same.

To every Bride planning a wedding - if you want to have the most beautiful wedding you could ever imagine, book The Tulip Tree as your florist ASAP!! I was referred to Sara Walker with The Tulip Tree by a friend and was immediately impressed with her professionalism. Not only is she incredibly sweet and easy to work with, she also has incredible eye for detail. Sara has a gift that allows her to truly bring a room to life with flowers that every guest (even men) truly appreciates. When the flowers for the wedding party showed up prior to our ceremony I was blown away to see how full and perfect every single bouquet was, and knew the reception hall was going to something special. one was, and knew the reception was going to be something special. When I walked into our reception, my breathe was literally taken away by the beautiful transformation that Sara created of our reception hall. Not only did she listen to me and understand exactly what I wanted, but she went above and beyond and took my vision one step further. I have pretty high expectations and Sara easily exceeded them. Sara worked for hours getting our reception hall set up, and I can truly say that every stem, petal, candle, crystal, etc was 100% perfect. Almost every guest at our wedding asked my parents or myself where the flowers came from and couldnt stop talking about how beautiful they were(again, even the men). Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and Sara had a HUGE part in that. I wish there were more stars to give her a more perfect rating. We are so thankful that she was available to do our wedding and could not be happier with what she did for us. In case it doesn't show, I highly recommend The Tulip Tree to anyone needing a florist!!!!

Sara was absolutely wonderful to work with! She is so friendly and so helpful. My bouquet was the most beautiful bouquet I have ever seen...It was even better than I imagined. I sent Sara a few pictures of what I liked and told her what colors and flowers were my favorite, and she was able to create spectacular arrangements! She helped to work within my budget and suggested flowers she thought would be a perfect match to what I envisioned. Another perk is that she lets you use her vases and she picks them up the next day! I would highly recommend Sara as your florist for your wedding day!

Sara did a wonderful job with the flowers, and is just a sweet person in general. The flowers were so unique and natural, not the stiff one-size-fits-all arrangements from the bigger companies. You can tell she's really passionate about her work and is a real artist. Honestly, I was a little surprised with how expensive it was, but I did not price any other vendors and I suspect it was actually a lot more affordable than a bigger company would have been- I just didn't know what to expect. She was flexible though and helped me bring the total within my budget. You won't regret going with Tulip Tree!

Sara Walker is a gem and her flowers were absolutely gorgeous. She was very helpful in the planning and so many people commented on how beautiful the flowers looked at Music Hall. I would recommend her to anyone!

My flowers were so beautiful. I only used for flowers for bride, bridesmaids, groom, groomsman, father of bride, mother of bride, mother of groom, and for cake. The arrangement was beautiful. Was very good with response. Without too many pictures made my vision come out better than I could've imagined. Loved how the flowers looked on my cake. My bouquet was very beautiful and a lot of people complimented on it. Would definately recommend to other people

The Tulip Tree did a wonderful job capturing our fall themed wedding. Sara is so flexible to work with, she is very talented and gave us much guidance as we know very little about flowers. The bride and bridesmaids bouquets were absolutely gorgeous! The Tulip Tree is a great vendor to turn to if you feel like you need some help in the design of your bouquets. She has such a talent and can create something you may have never envisioned. Highly recommend!

Grilled to Perfection: BBQ edition for Windows 8 126.96.36.199
Clear-cut and approachable usage
The program can only be installed from the Store, so you need to be running Windows 8 or higher to be able to work with it.
The main window is quite straightforward and intuitive, making it very easy to understand and use on any device you prefer, desktop or mobile, so you can even resort to it while in the kitchen.
Discover how to cook anything on the grill, from vegetables to fish
Grilled to Perfection: BBQ edition features several different categories, namely 'Grilled Vegetables', 'Grilled Potatoes', 'Grilled Steak', 'Grilled Chicken', 'Grilled Fish' and 'Grilled Seafood', each comprising various recipes which you can try out for yourself.
When accessing a specific category, you can browse between the available entries and click on the ones you want to find out more about. The instructions provided for a dish may vary, as some include both text (ingredients, step by step guidelines, number of servings, cooking time, etc) and a movie, while others simply offer you the video and nothing else.
However, the entries cannot be modified to suit your particular needs, nor can you add new recipes to the list of existing dishes. Similarly, the recipes cannot be exported to a file or printed, for working away from the computer, which means you would need to transfer them manually to a document.
A handy tool functioning as a multimedia cookbook
To conclude, Grilled to Perfection: BBQ edition is a useful yet rather limited cooking application that can assist you in grilling some of the most popular foods, proving particularly suitable for the summer season, when barbeques are a regular occurrence.

A very decent sporty 125 with great equipment and good handling that's let down by an inflated price tag. Those that need a cheap runaround will opt for a Chinese-made budget equivalent, while performance obsessed young 'uns will go for the pricier CBR125R or a YZF-R125. If you find yourself in possession of a KR Sport or can nab a ...
125cc, 8.5bhp, 60mph, Insurance group 4
The Vity 125 is not a cutting edge scooter. It's not fast. It doesn't look good unless you've got a thing for the 80s. But it does the job and has one big saving grace – a £1,799 price tag which, for a trustworthy 125cc Yamaha, is very cheap.
599cc, 78bhp, 125mph, Insurance group 10
One of the laziest new bike developments for 2010, the Yamaha XJ6 Diversion F is simply a standard Diversion with a full fairing and ABS. It's a similarly easy to ride all-rounder that's practical as a day-to-day bike, but it's a bit more stylish than the half-faired bike.
125cc, 15bhp, 67mph, Insurance group 4
Peugeot's luxury-learner scooter is an ideal tool for the well-heeled provisional licence holder – it's well-equipped, nicely made and rides well. It's not so good out of town, but then few 125s are really.

The Yamaha XT660Z Tenere is a great value, superbly capable adventure bke with real off road capability. Global treks aren't really on the cards as the Yamaha XT660Z Tenere's vibey single cylinder engine makes hard work of pulling its 185kg dry weight. Useful touches such as the durable crash panels and front towing hoop put it in a class of ...

The hub-centre steered Bimota Tesi is back. This is the third generation Bimota Tesi: the 3D. It costs £19,600 and is powered by the Ducati Multistrada 1100 engine. Although the Bimota Tesi is beautifully made, it's a very cramped motorcycle and the quirky front end doesn't have anywhere near the feel of a well set-up pair of forks. The cheaper ...

Moto Morini is an historic company with new owners. With its huge V-twin engine, muscular chassis and upright riding position the Corsaro 1200 is a 'super naked in every sense of the word. Electrical gremlins at the Moto Morini Corsaro 1200's world launch have been ironed out, but it's still not perfect.

The Honda Dominator is the motorcycle that defined the 'urban trailie' craze of the Nineties. Beloved by town-bound motorcycle couriers and B-road hackers thanks to its punchy delivery, rufty-tufty build quality and commanding riding position the Honda Dominator still makes its mark as a value-for-money commuting motorcycle.

The Yamaha TTR250 is a hardy wee beastie. As an undemanding, unfussy enduro bike for newer riders it excels, with a never-say-die single cylinder motor that has just enough pep for muddy fun. Now deleted from Yamaha's range the Yamaha TT250R is still a sound used buy providing you don't have to go too far on the tarmac.

A little about me...
Happy, healthy, bright in mind and smiling. I love life and all it has to offer. I am active, and love the outdoors. I cross country ski, kayak, and LOVE travel. I have visited Zimbabwe, Africa, Ecquador, Brazil, Dominican Republic, Mexico,Ireland, Portgual, and several other countries.I still have New Zealand and Australia on my "to see" list. I have been in the medical field my entire life and love the work I do. I currently work two jobs, but mostly because I like what I do and like to fill my time with useful business. I am in two book clubs and love to read and normally have at least three books going at once. I like to learn, and am usually found taking a University Course, just because.....I find nature stimulating, and exciting,birds, wild life, or stars love to admire their beauty.
About the one I'm looking for...
I am looking for a gentleman to spend the rest of my days of earth with. I do foresee he have manners, and usable education. Non smoking is essential. I understand the "chemistry thing" and we both will know it when it happens, but companionship would be really nice. I am a "touchy," person and love the gentleness of courting.
I'd just like to add...
I have been divorced for a LONG time, and wish to complete the remainder of my time on earth sharing my life completely. I must admit that because I have been alone so long, it is going to take a very patient person to work through the independence I have had to muster living alone so long. I have dated some, but as you; can tell right away if this is not the person for me. I always operate in complete honesty, and expect you do as well. I won't have it any other way. I can't wait to be greeted by you!

Critics Consensus: Never quite as funny as it wants to be, Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa still offers viewers the timeless pleasures of seeing an old man get his privates stuck in a vending machine.
Critics Consensus: Never quite as funny as it wants to be, Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa still offers viewers the timeless pleasures of seeing an old man get his privates stuck in a vending machine.
Movie Info
86 year-old Irving Zisman is on a journey across America with the most unlikely companion, his 8 year-old Grandson Billy in "Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa." This October, the signature Jackass character Irving Zisman (Johnny Knoxville) and Billy (Jackson Nicoll) will take movie audiences along for the most insane hidden camera road trip ever captured on camera. Along the way Irving will introduce the young and impressionable Billy to people, places and situations that give new meaning to the term childrearing. The duo will encounter male strippers, disgruntled child beauty pageant contestants (and their equally disgruntled mothers), funeral home mourners, biker bar patrons and a whole lot of unsuspecting citizens.

Critic Reviews for Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa
All Critics (105) | Top Critics (25) | Fresh (63) | Rotten (42)
The wrongs pile up, and there's a clear object of satire. That feels new for the Jackass experience: a target that isn't a crotch. I'd like to see Irv try to strike again with braver gags.
Onlookers occasionally glance into the camera, a pretty good sign that people are hip to these prankster movies now and just play along.
It's been 11 years since Jackass: The Movie, and three since Jackass 3D, although it feels a lot longer than that.
Like the lime-green bingo dabber contents Irving drinks down to the horror of his seatmates, it's an acquired taste.
It's not really a movie. It's Johnny Knoxville and his Jackass crew faking out real people into believing he's 86-year-old Irving Zisman, an old fart bag traveling cross-country.
Sometimes joy buzzers - and pratfalls, and funny costumes - are really all you need for a laugh or two. Or even a three-star comedy.
An unfunny 'comedy' full of cheap crudity and punches down at targets who don't deserve it. For some movies there should be hazard pay.
Bad Grandpa's biggest, most eyebrow-rising surprise may very well be the fact that we actually grow to care about him and Billy by the final reel
Stuffs male jackassery into a paper-thin pi�ata of a contrived plot, then blindly bashes us over the head, again and again, with a stick marked 'SEE WHAT AN OLD MAN AND A YOUNG BOY CAN GET AWAY WITH!'
...ultimately just another misguided effort from Knoxville and his band of pranksters.
Less violent and less mean-spirited than Jackass, Bad Grandpa is a funny little diversion and that's about it, but that's okay.
Lewd, crude, tasteless...It's when Irving dresses Billy up as a girl in a kids beauty pageant that things get crazy. It's one of those moments, folks, where the angels of good taste and decorum desert you and you find yourself laughing like an idiot.
In this sporadically hilarious off-colour comedy, stupid, misogynistic America is skewered by a paradoxical creation: an actor young and reckless enough to raise hell and a character old enough to know better.
You'll cough out some second-hand chuckles reliving the moment Irving Pic-ass-o'ed the wall.
Bad Grandpa is to Jackass what Borat is to Ali G. The gag is far less about Irving and his grandson; it's relishing in how they antagonise and perplex their unwilling support cast. It's juvenile, it's ridiculous but I laughed, a lot.
This really is a movie full of gags. And not entirely in a good way.
'Bad Grandpa' made me laugh more than it didn't, but I still missed the antics by the rest of the 'Jackass' gang in this R-rated road trip.
I can't imagine anyone going into this film expecting Mrs. Doubtfire...
There is something really unsettling and weird about this, and I'm not talking about when the kid does a hilariously wrong striptease to Warrant's Cherry Pie at a beauty pageant.
As hit and miss as it can be cruel, but with an "odd couple" eight decades apart at its heart it's likely to hit a few sweet spots for eager consumers of Borat-influenced comedy.
In 92 minutes I laughed twice. Once at the sight of Knoxville's geriatric being folded on a faulty bed and once on learning that Spike Jonze was part of the brain trust responsible for the alleged screenplay.
After a time, the characters start to bond with one another and form a genuinely likeable team.
It's sporadically hilarious, with some inspired gags and deranged pranks, but for a Jackass movie, this is oddly gentle and sometimes even sentimental.
Audience Reviews for Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa
Bad Grandpa is crude and a bit grubby and I didn't like it at all. Who am I kidding. It is puerile and often takes the joke too far but when it gets it right, it really gets it right and I confess I let our more than a couple of belly laughs. I liked Jackass back in the day but Knoxville's Irving Zisman character was probably one of my least favorite elements, it's to his credit that he has turned one of the weaker sketches into something so strong. A page has been taken out of Sasha Baron Cohen/Larry Charles book but it's brilliantly executed. Although it has to be said, without the brilliant young Jackson Nicoll it would have failed miserably. Good (but not clean) fun.
Super Reviewer
Many people essentially hate the premise of "Jackass" but love the execution, and for those lone souls, "Bad Grandpa" will be all you hoped for, and so much more. The pranks were always my favorite part of the show and the films, and the ones featured here are gut wrenchingly perfect. Knoxville and Nicholl troll a beauty pageant, some workers at a shipping center, random people on the street, and adult book store workers. Jackson Nicholl is going places for sure, and his amazing performance in this film only proves what a realistic actor and comedian he is. It's a rather short film that relies heavily on pranks and shock gags, but always hits its mark with ease, and is just as great as its predecessors.More
Super Reviewer
A drunken, cursing grandfather schlepps his grandson across the country to abandon him with his father.
I have to defend why I even watched this film: it was nominated for Best Makeup, and I watch all the nominated films if I can.
First, it's just not funny. It's mean. A man exposing his sagging balls to a group of women, trying to ship a child in a box, or entering his grandson in drag in a beauty pageant all fail to garner any laughs. In fact, people treated others disrespectfully shouldn't be entertaining.
Second and more importantly, this is not satire. It's a practical joke put to film. Practical jokes can be funny between friends, but I don't want to be friends with Johnny Knoxville; he's not friendly. However, this genre, prank films, can be excellent satire like Borat and Bruno. Both are very funny and substantive satires about American society and prejudice. Borat, the character, disarms people, allowing their racism, sexism, and social norm-slavery to come to the fore. Bad Grandpa doesn't even approach these goals.
Overall, I hope this is the last Johnny Knoxville film the Academy chooses to recognize because I don't think I can sit through another one.

74% iPad buyers were Mac owners, 66% had iPhones claims analyst
Apple may describe the iPad as a new segment, but are they also carving out a new audience for the company? According to Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster, first-day sales of the new tablet don't seem to suggest that's the case. He interviewed 448 iPad early-adopters and discovered that 74-percent were existing Mac users and 66-percent had an iPhone. Just 4-percent expected the iPad to replace their existing computer, and only 1-percent thought it might replace their iPhone.

Photovoltaic technologies are beginning to appear more attractive than concentrated solar thermal plants. PV's competitiveness is improving from technical and operational advancements, as well as...
Solar Tech Outlook
Manufacturers scale up for utility applications.
attributes, and some of them have parts of the overall equation in place, but for a utility looking for a reliable technology that is working at utility-scale, I think you have to say thin-film PV is the proven option.
Hall, Borrego Solar Systems: Generally we believe that photovoltaic technology represents the best option for utility-scale solar generation. Just a few years ago, many wrote PV off as an option for utility-scale generation as a result of the high upfront capital cost. Two things have happened since then that I believe had led many to reconsider, and for PV to move to the top in terms of viable technology. First, is that the cost of the PV modules has dropped by 50 percent since Q3 2008. The drop was a result of increased availability of poly-silicon—the feedstock material—both because of increased production and slower rise in demand. The second thing that has happened is that the investment tax credit (ITC) has received a long-term extension. This tax credit allows an investor to recoup 30 percent of the upfront investment. PV is an ideal technology to take advantage of this tax credit as it has substantial up-front capital cost, but has lower ongoing operation cost and risk—expenses that don't go into the tax-credit basis.
Within the PV umbrella of technologies, the market share will go mostly to standard efficiency crystalline photovoltaic modules—produced by many of the world's top 10 PV producers—and thin film. To date, the CdTe technology has emerged as the dominant player. Amorphous silicon technologies seem to be having a harder time competing as a result in the sharp decline in price for crystalline PV.
All in all, PV has emerged as a competitive priced low-risk technology. Ultimately it will take a large portion of the utility market share that many thought would go to solar thermal.
Woolard, BrightSource Energy: We've selected to use a power tower approach for our solar thermal plants because the technology offers cost, efficiency and environmental advantages.
Our decision to use a power tower stems from our engineering team's experience designing and building the nine Solar Electric Generating Stations (SEGS) in California between 1984 and 1990. These nine plants still represent more than 80 percent of the commercial solar thermal energy produced in the United States today. While built durably, the SEGS plants' trough technology has efficiency and cost limitations that are solved during the evolution to the Luz Power Tower (LPT) 550 technology.
The power tower approach is simple—thousands of mirrors track the sun in two dimensions and reflect the sunlight to a boiler sitting atop a tower. When the concentrated sunlight strikes the boiler's pipes, it heats the water inside to more than 1,000 degrees F. This superheated steam is then piped from the boiler to a standard turbine where electricity is generated. To conserve water, the steam is air-cooled and piped back into the system in a closed-loop, environmentally-friendly process.
Our LPT 550 technology consistently achieves more megawatt hours per MW of installed power equipment. It's more efficient and cost effective than other solar
