DEFINITION of 'Business Process Redesign - BPR'
The complete overhaul of a key business process with the objective of achieving a quantum jump in performance measures such as return on investment, cost reduction and quality of service. Business processes that can be redesigned encompass the complete range of critical processes, from manufacturing and production, to sales and customer service. Also known as business process reengineering.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Business Process Redesign - BPR'
Two criticisms of business process redesign are - (1) it may entail a large number of job redundancies or layoffs, and (2) it assumes that faulty business processes are the main reason for the company's poor performance, when other factors may also be responsible for under-performance.

A corporation's main objective, and many would agree legal obligation, is to make money and maximize profits for its shareholders, but should more be asked or required of today's successful businesses? For an ever increasing segment of society, the answer without a doubt is "yes." The concept, commonly referred to as corporate social responsibility (CSR), extends beyond compliance with legal mandates or even charitable donations and good deeds. CSR advocates believe a company has a clear duty of care to all stakeholders connected to or impacted by a company's operation.
A new article, The Business Case for Environmental Sustainability, published this week in the American Bar Association's Business Law Today, by E. Lynn Grayson and Gary P. Kjelleren, addresses these considerations. The article examines environmental sustainability and why it matters for business. The authors detail key environmental sustainability focus areas and outline a roadmap of essential considerations companies should incorporate into any environmental stewardship initiatives. Lastly, they conclude that there is a business case for environmental sustainability that will improve financial performance.
The authors conclude there is a business case for environmental sustainability in the context of corporate social responsibility. In closing, they note: "It appears a virtual certainty that environmental sustainability will increasingly move from voluntary to legally mandated initiatives including sustainability reporting requirements. The critical inquiry for business is no longer if, but how and when to launch a meaningful environmental sustainability program. There is a growing business case for environmental sustainability. It is an added bonus that addressing these business challenges not only will enhance financial performance over time, but is simply the right thing to do as well."
The World Bank sold $91 million in green bonds tied to an index of "ethical" companies – its largest offering of green bonds linked to an equity index and the first offered to individual investors.
Green bonds were created to increase funding by accessing the $80 trillion bond market and expanding the investor base for climate-friendly projects worldwide. They are fixed income, liquid financial instruments that are easy to understand, and the funds green bonds raise are dedicated exclusively to climate-mitigation and adaption projects, and other environmentally beneficial activities. This provides investors an attractive investment proposition as well as an opportunity to support environmentally sound projects, according to the World Bank.
The World Bank Treasury issued its first green bond in 2008, at a time when investors didn't have liquid, fixed income investment options that specifically supported climate-focused and environmentally-friendly projects. The World Bank has since issued more than US$7 billion in green bonds in 17 currencies, including a new green growth bond linked to an equity index and designed for retail investors. Separately, the International Finance Corporation (IFC) has issued US$3.7 billion, including two US$1 billion green bond sales in 2013. Proceeds form World Bank and IFC green bonds are used to support renewable energy, energy efficiency, sustainable transportation and other low-carbon projects, as well as financing for forest and watershed management, and infrastructure to prevent climate-related flood damage and build climate resilience.
The two institutions – whose AAA/Aaa ratings provide security for investors and development mandate and safeguards provide assurance for the use of proceeds and impact – have helped pioneer the green bond market, expand the investor base, and raise awareness about the needs and opportunities for climate-friendly investment.
The latest securities, which don't pay a coupon, are linked to the performance of the Ethical Europe Equity Index, a group of European companies that have no involvement in weapons, gambling, tobacco or nuclear energy. The seven-year notes were sold in $100 denominations to individuals in Belgium and Luxembourg, according to a World Bank statement.
The Washington-based lender, founded in 1944 with the goal of aiding post-war reconstruction, issued its first debt securities in 1947 and has sold more than $7 billion of green bonds in 78 deals. Global issuance of the securities, which are used to fund environmentally friendly projects, rose to a record last year, with $32.6 billion sold through October 24, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Pension funds that are required to invest in sustainable assets have helped to fuel demand, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance.
The Climate Bonds Initiative (CBI) also recently reported that the green bond market saw it biggest year yet in 2014. CBI has reported that almost $37 billion worth of labeled green bonds were issued in 2014--this figure is consistent with estimates also released by Bloomberg New Energy Finance.
According to the World Bank, the fastest growing cities and developing countries face increasing financial challenge from climate change. The green bond is a climate friendly investment developed to provide much needed funding to address climate change related impacts, primarily by governmental entities.
A recent lawsuit filed by 10 environmental groups against EPA alleges that EPCRA Section 313 Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) reporting should apply to oil and gas extraction companies. The environmental groups want TRI data regulatory requirements about releases to the environment to apply to oil drilling and exploration, hydraulic fracturing and natural gas processing activities.
According to the lawsuit recently filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, EPA conducted rulemaking in the 1996-1997 time frame to consider adding other industry sectors to the list of facilities required to complete TRI reporting. At that time, EPA concluded that "oil and gas extraction classified in SIC code 13 is believed to conduct significant management activities that involve EPCRA Section 313 chemicals." EPA did not regulate the oil and gas industry following these earlier rulemaking efforts and for that reason, in 2012, environmental groups petitioned EPA to initiate rulemaking to add the oil and gas industry to TRI reporting requirements. The lawsuit alleges that EPA has not responded to that petition.
The environmental groups also allege that 127 tons of hazardous air pollutants are released by the oil and gas industry annually as well as other releases to the environment through discharges to surface waters, contamination of groundwater, underground injection and disposal in landfills. The lawsuit contends that regulation of the oil and gas industry is even more important today given the expansion of hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling.
The environmental groups bringing the lawsuit include the: Environmental Integrity Project, Center for Effective Government, Chesapeake Climate Action Network, Citizens for Pennsylvania's Future, Clean Air Council, Delaware Riverkeeper Network, Natural Resources Defense Council, Responsible Drilling Alliance, and Texas Campaign for the Environment.
The oil and gas industry has concluded that TRI requirements never were intended to cover such facilities given the few employees typically involved in these operations and the multitude of other regulations applicable to the oil and gas industry. They also look to the 1996-1997 rulemaking effort but with a different recollection recalling that EPA confirmed at that time that "…This industry group is unique in that it may have related activities located over significantly large geographic areas. While together these activities may involve the management of significant quantities of EPCRA section 313 chemicals in addition to requiring significant employee involvement, taken at the smallest unit (individual well), neither the employee nor the chemical thresholds are likely to be met." Industry advocates have criticized these environmental groups, and particularly the Environmental Integrity Project, for attempting to manipulate data in order to oppose oil and gas development and seeking to impose additional regulatory requirements on an industry already heavily regulated.
The TRI program is an expansive regulatory initiative that mandates annual reporting obligations for certain facilities that fall within specific industry sectors, have 10 or more full time employees and manufacture or process 25,000 pounds of toxic chemicals subject to EPCRA Section 313 or otherwise use 10,000 pounds of these same chemicals in any given year. It is typically the case that many of the oil and gas extraction operations would not meet these reporting thresholds as previously concluded by EPA. It appears, however, that this issue may be debated once again in the context of this case.
On December 12, 2014, the Senate approved H.R. 3979, the National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2015. Buried in this bill are provisions that provide CERCLA immunity to the United States for three parcels of property that are being transferred to municipalities in Idaho and Nevada. The parcels at issues are being transferred from the United States Department of the Interior. Although the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("U.S. EPA") has generally opposed legislation that would exempt the United States from CERCLA liability, there is no indication that U.S EPA formally opposed the liability exemptions contained in H.R. 3979. The President signed the bill into law on December 19, 2014.
It is unclear whether the exemptions contained in H.R. 3979 represent an one-off event or are a precursor to future Congressional efforts to exempt the United States from CERCLA liability. Please click here to see a copy of H.R. 3979.
PacifiCorp Energy has agreed to pay $2.5 million to settle charges arising from bird deaths at two of its wind farms located in Wyoming. PacifiCorp pled guilty in Wyoming federal court to two misdemeanor violations of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and was sentenced to five years' probation. The company also agreed to institute a compliance program to prevent bird deaths at the utility's four commercial wind farms in Wyoming.
According to allegations, the company failed to make all reasonable efforts to build projects in a way that would avoid risk of bird deaths by collision with turbine blades consistent with guidance finalized by the Fish & Wildlife Service in 2012. The Migratory Bird Treaty Act violations were charged following discovery of the carcasses of 38 golden eagles and 336 other protected birds at the company's Seven Mile Hill and Glenrock/Rolling Hills wind farms in Carbon and Converse counties.
This is the second prosecution of wind farm owners and operators under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. Duke Energy was convicted last year in similar charges flowing from bird deaths at two of its wind farms also located in Wyoming. See "First Criminal Conviction Under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act for Wind Farm" blog we posted on November 26, 2013.
These are very troubling cases that pit environmentalists against clean energy advocates. While wind farm energy is highly sought after in the U.S., it is clear there is an increased scrutiny on the utilities that operate these wind projects to ensure that construction, design and operation of these wind farms are protective of birds. In many ways, this seems like an almost impossible achievement for companies.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently announced the first national regulations to provide for the safe disposal of coal combustion residuals (coal ash) from coal-fired power plants which will be regulated under the nonhazardous waste provisions of RCRA. In developing the new rule, the EPA evaluated more than 450,000 comments on the proposed rule, testimony form eight public hearings, and information gathered from three notices soliciting comment on new data and analyses.
According to EPA, improperly constructed or managed coal ash disposal units have resulted in the catastrophic failure of surface impoundments, damages to surface water, groundwater and the air. The first federal requirements for impoundments and landfills will address the following risks:
This final rule also supports the responsible recycling of coal ash by distinguishing safe, beneficial use from disposal. In 2012, almost 40 percent of all coal ash produced was recycled (beneficially used), rather than disposed. Beneficial use of coal ash can produce positive environmental, economic and performance benefits such as reduced use of virgin resources, lower greenhouse gas emissions, reduced cost of coal ash disposal, and improved strength and durability of materials.
Coal ash, the second largest industrial waste stream, rose to national prominence following two high-profile spills: the December 2008 Kingston Fossil Plant spill in Tennessee and the February 2014 spill of 140,000 tons of coal ash and wastewater into North Carolina's Dan River.
Important Timeline of Coal Ash Assessment by EPA:
Dec. 22, 2008—Dike ruptures at the Kingston Fossil Plant in Harriman, Tenn., releasing 5.4 million cubic yards of coal ash slurry into surrounding area.
Jan. 14, 2009—At her Senate confirmation hearing, incoming EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson says the agency will review how it regulates coal ash.
June 21, 2010—The EPA proposes (75 Fed. Reg. 35,128) two possible ways for regulating coal ash—under the hazardous waste provisions of Subtitle C of RCRA or under the nonhazardous waste provisions of Subtitle D.
April 5, 2012—Frustrated with the slow pace of the rulemaking, environmental advocates sue the EPA over failure to complete a mandatory review of RCRA regulations every three years. They seek a deadline for final coal ash standards.
Jan. 31, 2014—Environmental advocates, coal ash recyclers, utilities and the EPA reach an agreement that requires the EPA to complete its coal ash regulations by Dec. 19.
Feb. 2, 2014—140,000 tons of coal ash and wastewater spill from a Duke Energy Corp. into North Carolina's Dan River.
Dec. 19, 2014—The EPA issues a final rule on the management and disposal of coal ash.
This new rule appears to be a good compromise both for industry and environmental groups. While the non-hazardous designation supports industry's position, the overall scope and regulatory focus on coal ash disposal and storage addresses concerns expressed repeatedly by citizens' groups.
Additional information about the new rule including a summary and history is available at http://www2.epa.gov/coalash/coal-ash-rule.
AT&T agreed to pay $51.8 million to resolve allegations that it improperly disposed of hazardous electronic waste at its facilities in California. In one of the first enforcement actions of its kind in California, AT&T has agreed to expend $28 million over the next five years to improve its electronic waste handling practices, as well as pay $18.8 million in civil penalties and $5 million to fund environmental programs in California.
AT&T's alleged unlawful disposal practices were first discovered in 2011 as a result of an inspection that revealed that AT&T was regularly sending electronic wastes to landfills that were not permitted to receive them. Under the settlement agreement, which still requires final court approval, AT&T has agreed to deposit electronic waste into "staging bins" to ensure that its electronic wastes are not combined with normal trash. AT&T also will conduct hundreds of random dumpster inspections on an annual basis.

Efforts continue to prevent Asian carp from entering Lake Michigan through the Chicago waterway system. The latest proposal under consideration by the Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) is to install controls at the Brandon Road Lock and Dam near Joliet, Illinois. The ACOE is seeking public comments on this proposal originally identified as one of eight options outlined in the ACOE Great Lakes and Mississippi River Interbasin Study (GLMRIS) presented to Congress earlier this year.
The assistant secretary of the Army for civil works directed the ACOE to proceed with a formal evaluation of the viability of using the Brandon Road site as a point to prevent the upstream transfer of the carp and other aquatic nuisance species from the Mississippi River basin to the Great Lakes system. The site is downstream of the confluence of the Des Plaines River and the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal, which leads into Lake Michigan. A one-way control point at Brandon Road would "minimize the likelihood" of invasive species drifting into the Great Lakes basin during a flood as well as minimize the chances of "adverse impacts to existing waterway uses and users," according to the ACOE.
The public comment period extends through January 17. The Corps will hold public meetings on the plan December 6 near Joliet and December 9 in Chicago, with webcast and call-in options available. Comments can be submitted at the meetings, online through the GLMRIS website or by conventional mail.
More information on GLMRIS is available at http://www.glmris.anl.gov.
A teleconference for stakeholders to ask questions about efforts at the Brandon Road site is scheduled for November 25 at 11 a.m. EST. Dial-in: 1-888-621-9649 or 1-617-231-2734. Event ID: 417591.
On Friday, Gabrielle Sigel and Allison Torrence of Jenner & Block, in partnership with the Chicago Bar Association's Environmental Law Committee, will host a luncheon entitled, "Can a Lame Duck Fly? Climate Change Law at the Sunset of the Obama Administration."
From the presenters: "The first six years of the Obama Administration's efforts to address climate change have resulted in regulatory changes, executive branch initiatives, judicial challenges, and Congressional obstacles. The results of the recent 2014 mid-term elections will allow us to predict how successful the President will be in accomplishing the goals of his Climate Action Plan and his Administration's effect on climate change law. Please join us as we discuss how the new make-up of Congress, the Administration's proposed regulations and other executive actions, and recent federal court rulings shape the future of climate change law."
Friday, November 14, 2014
12:00pm - 1:30pm CST
Lunch will be served at noon followed by the presentation at 12:15pm.

Following up on a previous post, in which we noted that, nearly a year after filing its first draft, the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) had filed revised rules implementing the Hydraulic Fracturing Regulatory Act (225 ILCS 732) with the Illinois' Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR), we report that JCAR has approved these proposed regulations. In September JCAR had extended the Second Notice period for the rulemaking for an additional 45 days, but it finally approved the rules yesterday. The final version of rules may now be filed with the Secretary of State for publication in the Illinois Register.

Related: John Brown's Body, KINGS AND QUEENS |
As reggae music continues to reach new heights in America, John Brown's Body (JBB) has been there from the beginning, constantly pushing and evolving the U.S. reggae scene through explosive live shows and critically-acclaimed recordings. Their new album, Kings And Queens, out April 16th on Easy Star Records, is no exception. Kings And Queens is the band's most ambitious release to date, encompassing the entire history of the band's sound and legacy. Lead vocalist Elliot Martin reaches new levels of songwriting by striking the fine balance between classic JBB roots and a fresh new JBB sound. A perfect example is the track "Old John Brown," available for FREE download on the band's Facebook page.
After releasing their exceptional and (mostly) instrumental JBB In Dub EP late in 2012, the band is already back with their eighth studio album, and first full-length since 2008's chart-topping (#1 Billboard Reggae) Amplify. Kings And Queens features twelve new songs that are dripping in their signature "Future Roots" sound influenced by British Reggae (Aswad, Steel Pulse), roots classics (Burning Spear, Alpha Blondy), dub experimentation (Scientist, King Tubby, Sly & Robbie), and electronic music. The results are a thicker, heavier style than most modern reggae.
Over the past five years, the Boston/Ithaca/Brooklyn-based octet has toured throughout Europe, New Zealand, and of course the U.S. performing at notable festivals Bear Creek, Gathering of the Vibes, Jam Cruise, and Wakarusa and with acts including Galactic, Groundation, and label mates The Black Seeds and Easy Star All-Stars. This road warrior-like behavior has leant its influence in the studio by capturing the infectious energy of a JBB show throughout Kings And Queens.
Easy Star Records, one of the leading reggae labels in the world, has been working with JBB since 2004. Easy Star co-founder Lem Oppenheimer enthusiastically states, "JBB has been a large part of our roster for a long time, because it's rare to find a relationship where both label and artist have the same drive to be progressive and push each other forward. JBB and Easy Star are like family."
In the age of fickle trends and gone tomorrow music, John Brown's Body provides refreshing integrity and longevity. Don't miss what All Music Guide calls, "some of the most gorgeous melodies in all of modern reggae music," when JBB tours this spring to celebrate their new release.

Managers get grief from all sides
Posted by CorporateCoachG under ManagementFrom http://www.corporatecoachgroup.co.uk 783 days ago
Made Hot by: InvernessGlenn on December 9, 2012 11:15 pm
So,the first time manager would benefit from good management training.
Good management training should not spend too much time talking about abstract ideas that describe what managers should do, but without giving advice on exactly how to do it.
Instead; Good Management Training should be practical and pragmatic: it should relate immediately to your work context. The day after the training, you should be able to directly relate the training to your work situation and thus make immediate and large scale progress.
If making immediate and large scale progress is what you are interested in, then please, read on....

It's been a while since my last post. My computer was on the fritz then we got into the holidays and well, I just got out of the habit of blogging. I was doing pretty good there for a while, hoping to get to it most weeks this year (a continuation of my resolution for last year). One of the things that has been keeping me busy of late is that my landlord informed me right after the first of the year that she's giving up the house. Lots of drama there and frankly I'm glad to be out of the place soon - the smoking, the wonky washer, the running toilet! I think I will be MUCH happier in the new place. Here are some pictures!
Look at all that counter space!!
Much more open concept and the dreaded desk (which is currently in the hallway of my old place) will fit! Success!
One thing I have learned about myself is that apparently, I am a spice hoarder. You will see below that I have three (count, them 3!!) reusable grocery bags of spices. Now to be fair, the blue bag has 2 bins of bags of spices, so that's not too much and the insulated bag has my box of herbs/spices for bitters. So I guess it isn't really that much (the rationalization of a true hoarder)...
After packing it all up, I vowed that I was going to go through it all. There has to be duplicates, right?
As it turns out, not really that many duplicates. Oye. As any good, OCD, pharmacist, I made a list of the weirder spices that I have and gave myself a deadline of using everything at least once in 6 months. If I don't, then it is getting thrown away. I'm sure some of it isn't even good anymore, I mean some of those spices are from when I lived in Tucson (which was almost 4 years ago). There is some sentimental attachment to most of these though - spices I brought back from Bali (anyone know what to do with black chilly?), lemongrass and galangal powder from the Indonesian Super Bowl party my mom, aunt Lora and I threw, Turkish salad seasoning and curries from when my mom went to Turkey, Indian curry from when she went to India, my friend Ravi's dad's special home mixed garam masala he brought back for an Indian dinner party, chile from Tucson, the list goes on an on.
I am so looking forward to breaking in my new kitchen using all of these spices! Will keep you all posted how it goes along the way.

Yolanda Franklin's acting bucket list
Jeff Smith 4 p.m., Jan. 30
The film opens in modern-day Japan where a single beetle recently sold for $90,000 and delves into the ineffable mystery of the country's age-old love affair with bugs. Working backward through history, the non-fiction film untangles the web of cultural influences behind Japan's rich and enriching social relationship with insects.

Special post for my tumblr here: http://dan-vs-fim.tumblr.
>a story about Dan stuck in the world of pones
Obviously a lot of room for improvement, but at the same time I was quite lazy with most of it.
Took a few days, at least 40 hours overall.
Probably the first real sound editing I've ever done, too.
My God it was almost TV quality level animation, Hats off to the artist. Good use of original sound too. Next time do a full episode. It would be EPIC beyond reason.
Despite it being short and somewhat amateurish, the animation was very smooth, the humor (especially the bed kicking) was enjoyable and the sound value was excellent.
This is hilarious and very well animated. I also found the tumblr page epic. Keep up the good work. :D
lol beautiful and clean funny well done. i lol'd when he said see i learned best line

Oil prices will stay above 100 dollars a barrel for the next couple of years according to the latest poll of energy industry analysts.
They have sharply revised their forecasts up because of the political tensions in the Middle East.
And that means potentially rich pickings for Manoj Patel a small investor – or for those who blame him for pushing up prices a speculator.
He explains his business as: "High risk, high reward," and said he doesn't buy oil, he buys oil futures: "I have no use of a single barrel of oil, I just trade it from a trading perspective."
Michael Greenberger, the former head of the US government regulator of commodity futures complains that has an effect for all of us. :
"It's accelerating the price of all oil products, gasoline, crude oil, heating oil and other energy products, for no good reason," Greenberger said.
His former employer, the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission, is considering regulations to curb excessive speculation.
As for future prices, the only thing analysts agreed on is that protests in the Middle East and North Africa and the tragedy in Japan make it unusually difficult to forecast prices.

I totally got inspired today while reading over a report I did several years ago about fashion in the 1880's. How adorable would a modern styled bustle look with jeans? Whaddya think? Something cute and funky. You could tie it on like a hip scarf. Have any of you seen something like that before?
Sep 17, 2009, 10.17 PMby nehmah
Someone posted a photo under "Modern Bustle" but I Must have the title wrong. I thought, "Why?" I wouldn't wear a corset either. Cordially, Nehmah
Sep 18, 2009, 03.58 AMby oscarthegrouch108
actually, bustles are bid with the steampunk crowd, though they usually go for a bustle skirt.
if you are going to try a bustle with pants, i would wear it with long pants, and possibly make them a matching set (same fabric and trims). depending on how punk/goth you are, you sould not only have the tie at the waist, but maybe a few chains loosely connecting the bustle to the pants farther down (like around the knee). maybe pretty ribbons for a more romantic look?
i think that you could pull it off if it matched something, but a stand alone bustle with regular jeans would look a little silly, to me anyway.
i might just have to try this myself!

oops! it should say "….you are, you Could not only have the tie …."

Surprise! Oklahoma State, outsider during the Big 12 Tournament, gained a season reprieve in an NCAA Tournament bid.
Surprise! Oklahoma, 1-2 during its stay in Bricktown, nabbed one of the eight overall national seeds.
No surprise, Oral Roberts is in again, after winning its conference title for the 12th straight year.
There was good news to go around for the state schools Monday, when the NCAA selection committee revealed its 64-team field. The Sooners were already named a regional host Sunday. OSU and ORU are heading on the road: the Cowboys to Clemson; the Golden Eagles to Arizona State.
The most significant news might be OU getting the No. 7 national seed.
For the Sooners, their road to Omaha is paved through a familiar and friendly path: Mitchell Park. The national seed translates into two weekend's worth of home games, provided they win this weekend as the favorite. The Norman Regional and Tallahassee Regional are paired for next week's Super Regional round.
"It assures you of the ability to stay at home on the road to Omaha," said OU coach Sunny Golloway, "but there are no guarantees."
It starts Friday with an old nemesis — Wichita State — in the 7 p.m. first-round pairing at Mitchell Park. OU is the top seed in the regional, with the Shockers No. 4. The 1 p.m. game features No. 2 Arkansas against No. 3 Washington State.
OSU is heading for Clemson, S.C., as the No. 3 seed to face No. 2 Alabama. Clemson is the top seed there, with Tennessee Tech the No. 4.
The bid for the Cowboys came after they finished ninth in the Big 12 and missed the conference tournament for the first time in 32 years.

Dark side of the moon (not Floyd)

I don't know if this idea has been discussed before, but it was just something that came to me earlier.
NASA went to the Moon (possibly, I'm not sure tbh) and then nothing. Zilch nada nowt sod all. A few orbiting missions and unmanned probes, but no return to the moon. Or was there?
There is always the chance that life on our planet could be threatened by a large meteor or comet collision. An extinction level event could happen with little warning. Now is it not within the realm of possibility that the very powerful, super rich people and organizations of Earth could have been engaged in private sector lunar expeditions? Top secret missions to establish a safe haven on the moon for them and their progeny? I'm not talking the guy who wins the big lotto jackpot, I'm talking Bill Gates, the British Royal family, the Sultan of Brunei, the Vatican, mostly what you would call "Old Money" and a few of the more wealthy plebs. In the event of impending cataclysm, this select few would assemble their people and off they would go, leaving the rest of us to die. They would see it as a great honour to continue the human race until the Earth is habitable again. And it would eradicate the lower classes too.
Am I talking crap? Possibly. But as I say, you could wake up tomorrow, turn on the TV and the top story on the news could be the approach of comet earthsmash. What good is all that money if you're not going to be around to spend it because you are pushing up daisies. If you had the money of Gates and could afford to do it, wouldnt you at least look at the possibilty?
Thanks if you got this far, and apologies if this idea has been thought of before.
posted on Aug, 10 2006 @ 02:03 AM
It's entirely possible, I would suppose. No doubt something along those lines has crossed the minds of every mega-ultra-rich person since mega-ultra-rich people came about.
Perhaps not always relating to comet strikes, but Im sure they at least think about the possibility of something bad happening. I mean, do you think Bill Gates
have a private bunker in case of nuclear war?
It would be great to prove that there is something on the far side, wouldn't it?
Pity it's just about impossible.
Pooled together, they actually (probably)
have the money and know-how and contacts to build their own moon missions. It would then just be a matter of keeping leaks quiet, something that is darn near impossible.
Just about the single thing that leads me to say "nah" to this is that I have not heard anything about it before. Not even a quote of a deranged scientist from some gothics' blog. Not that Ive been looking.

hmm ok well......
I dont know because only a few months ago I wasnt on ATS and believed that the moon was really close to earth and now that I have seen how far it really is and what problems we face going to the moon I dont think bases to sustain life for a long period of time coul be achieved you would need to take a lot of food and a lot of water (a lot) to survive years and years after the earth is hit and thats only if the moon is not affected by the comet hitting the earth.
If the comet that hit the earth was powerfull enough to end all life on it then I think the Moon would be affected in one way or another plus I think I heard before if that happened it would take many years (hundreds of thousands) for the earth to be habitable again, NO? so I really dont think thats possible but hey what do I know?
posted on Aug, 16 2006 @ 11:27 AM
I tend to think the post nuke-comet bunkers for the ultra-rich are actually under the Earth. Do a little bit of research and you'll actually find out that there is an IMMENSE network of underground facilties already set-up.
and sotp, if you haven't heard of the Alternative 3 scenario, Google or Wiki it. It's exactly along these lines.
posted on Aug, 16 2006 @ 12:33 PM
That would be more feasible because it would be easier and cheaper to get supplies to it since you dont have to pay millions to get a rocket ship in the air and on its way to the moon. plus you can stock pile over the years and you need to remember your food does have a shelf life
you can also run a water line much easier and only worry about filtering it.
What I usually think about when I think of this is lets say you do get rich and you do build a bunker and stock it with food then a nuclear missle hits
1. will you know when its going to hit? there is not going to be any warning you think the government is going to announce it? NO they will after it happens but they will give us no warning why? because their people will be scrambling themselves to get somewhere safe
2. lets say you survive the first blast or it was not even in your area but you head in your bunker to prepare for the fallout ok what then you stay there in your bunker for a few months then you get sick? you didnt bring a doctor with you did you? what do you do then
3. you survive years and years but when you come out everthing is destroyed there is no survivors (or none for miles and miles away) what then? your food and supplies have almost all been depleted so you roam the country looking for people?
I dont know dude I dont think I'd want to survive it infact I think I would prefer to be right at ground zero and not feel a thing
well thats what I say now

Ignaz Schick & Joana Holanda Brazilian pianist Joana Holanda presents a program of new music for piano solo and with electronics by composers born in Brazil. Its music illustrates the diversity and richness of contemporary Brazilian music, encompassing a large variety of aesthetics and presenting composers of different generations. P R O G R A MElectroacoustic composer/improviser from Berlin, Ignaz Schick performs his compositions for improvisers with members of sfSoundGroup and special guests. P E R F O R M E R S JOANA HOLANDA earned her bachelor degree in music from State University of Campinas- UNICAMP (1997), her Master in Arts from Iowa University (2000) in USA and her doctorate in Music from Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (2006). During the doctorate, she staged at City University,in London. She studied with Ney Fialkow, Ksenia Nosikova, Christian Tarla,Fúlvia Escobar and Jorge Gomes. Faculty member of the Federal University of Pelotas Art Center, she is also a member of NuMC- Núcleo de Música Contemporânea of the same institution. She researches and performs contemporary Brazilian music, having performed lecture-recitals in conferences in Brazil and abroad. In 2012 Holanda was one of the coordinators of the 1st Latin American Festival of Contemporary Music of Pelotas, and in 2013 released her first album, Piano Presente, by label SESC-SP. Music Critic Irineu Franco Perpétuo writes about Piano Presente: "On approaching music that escape the traditional clichés for the instrument, Holanda demonstrates to master a varied repertoire of pianistic resources, which she makes use to characterize, in a peculiar and unique way, each peculiar and unique sound worlds of different composers." Turntablist, sound artist, performer & composer IGNAZ SCHICK studied the saxophone and performed in free jazz and avant rock bands. At the same time he was getting obsessed with multitrack tape machines, record players and effect boxes and he started experimenting with many different instruments and sound making devices. After college he briefly studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich and worked for several years as an assistent for contemporary composer Josef Anton Riedl. Since the late 1995 he works and lives in Berlin where he became an active and integral force of the so-called "Berlin Nouvelle Vague" and the blossoming "real time music" scene. From the middle of the nineties onwards his interest and activities almost completely shifted towards live-electronics and after testing various instrumentations (hard- & software samplers, signal processing, contact mics, field recordings, ...) he developed his own and quite unique electro-acoustic set-up which he calls "rotating surfaces". Various objects and materials (from wood, metal, plastic, paper or violin bows and cymbals) are played directly on the rotating metal plate of the turntable and the vibrations are simply amplified with a small condensator microphone. With this set-up he covers many different styles of contemporary experimental music - ranging from extreme reductionism via ambient, industrial, musique concrete, electronica to harsh noise. Besides his favorite setting, the direct duo-confrontation with the likes of Chris Abrahams (AUS), Alexei Borisov (RUS), Sebastian Buczek (PL), Phil Durrant (GB), Gunnar Geisse (D), GX Jupitter-Larsen/The Haters (USA), Dawid Szczesny (PL), Martin Tetreault (CAN) or Marcel Tuerkowsky (D) (...) he is member and founder of many different ensembles like Perlonex, Snake Figures Arkestra, Phosphor, Blind Snakes, Decollage, N.I.E., .... |

Carl Ludwig Hübsch & Radical 2 German composer/tubist Carl Ludwig Hübsch performs a duo with clarinetist Matt Ingalls and a selction of his compositions for improvisers with members of sfSoundGroup. P E R F O R M E R S Brooklyn-based percussion duo RADICAL 2 performs a program of theatrical compositions for percussion and electronics. P R O G R A M Born in Freiburg, CARL LUDWIG HÜBSCH grew up playing clarinet in the local brass band and drums in punk bands. Around 1983 he exchanged the clarinet for a tuba. Influenced by Frank Zappa, King Sunny Ade, and The Dead Kennedys, he has performed all kinds of music including a wonderfully-mediocre dance music trio. The discovery of jazz and improvisation led to studies in improvisation with M.A.Fataah. Hübsch received certification at the Pedagogic College in Freiburg in singing, theory, drums. He studied electronic music with Klaus Weinhold. In Cologne he studied as guest in the composition class with Johannes Fritsch. Since 1990, Carl Ludwig Hübsch has lived in Cologne where he finally awarded a livelong stipendium at his own university. Hübsch's work focuses on improvised music and conteporary music. He composes and performs in concert halls, studios and theatres lending his talents to ensembles and orchestras. He is well known for his unique solo concerts. He leads workshops for tuba or improvisation. Another most important focus on Hübsch's work is composition. RADICAL 2 (Levy Lorenzo and Dennis Sullivan) is a performance duo based in Brooklyn, New York. Grounded in the tradition of contemporary classical percussion, Radical 2 extends this performance practice by exploring compositions that use theatrical vocal techniques and prototype electronics. By integrating the human voice via extended techniques and oddly contextualized speech, Radical 2 is actively blurring the lines between their vocal chords and percussion instruments. While also making use of physical theater, their performances range from whimsical and witty, to somber and nebulous, to farcical and just plain absurd. With electronics Radial 2 uses newly designed instruments that allow the use of live electronics into their performances which provide strong engagement between the audience and the electronic sound worlds. Radical 2 extends the role of classical percussionists into actors and electronic musicians, yet still relying on the percussionist's sense of extended techniques and new music performance practice. The members of Radical 2 have had the pleasure of collaborating with and/or personally performing for luminaries such as Rick Burkhardt, Georges Aperghis, Alexander Schubert, and Thomas Meadowcroft while also fervently studying and realizing the music of Vinko Globokar, Cort Lippe, Mauricio Kagel, Martin Matalon and Herbert Brun among many others. Radical 2 has also presented their work at international institutes such as the Darmstadt Festival (DE), NIME (UK), Ensemble Moderne Festival (AT) and at STEIM (NE). |
A Tribute To Robert Ashley presented by Thomas Buckner & friends One of the most original minds in new music, Robert Ashley reinvented opera and the relationship of words and music. Thomas Buckner will perform some of the many works composed especially for him to sing in a concert setting during the more than thirty years he sang in the operas. ROBERT ASHLEY (1930-2014), one of the leading American composers of the post-Cage generation, is particularly known for his work in new forms of opera. In the 1960s, during his tenure as its director, the ONCE Festival in Ann Arbor presented most of the decade's pioneers of the performing arts. With the legendary ONCE Group, he developed his first large-scale operas. Along with Alvin Lucier, Gordon Mumma, and David Behrman, he formed the Sonic Arts Union, a group that turned conceptualism toward electronics. Throughout the 1970s, he directed the Center for Contemporary Music at Mills College, and produced his first opera for television, the 14-hour Music with Roots in the Aether, based on the work and ideas of seven influential American composers. In the early 1980s The Kitchen commissioned Ashley's Perfect Lives, the opera for television that is widely considered the precursor of "music-television." Stage versions of Perfect Lives, as well as his following operas, Atalanta (Acts of God), Improvement (Don Leaves Linda), Foreign Experiences, eL/Aficionado and Now Eleanor's Idea toured throughout the US and Canada, Europe and Asia during the 1980s and 1990s. A new group of operas was begun in 1999 when Kanagawa Arts Foundation (Japan) commissioned Dust, which was quickly followed by Celestial Excursions and The Old Man Lives in Concrete. He wrote and recorded his performance-novel, Quicksand (released in novel form by Burning Books). And his final opera, Crash, was completed in December 2013 for premiere at the 2014 Whitney Biennial Exhibition. Ashley's book Outside of Time: Ideas About Music (2009), was published byMusikTexte (available from Lovely Music) and Kyle Gann's biography of Ashley (2012) was published by the University of Illinois Press. Burning Books has published several of his librettos and a large part of his recorded work is available from Lovely Music. |

Yes, parking is an issue but the time to address that would have been at the OMI expansion. Their front lot could have and may still be able to go upward with a facade that would match the building. Other parking options would be the now available lot across from Golden Valley and the one next to the oral surgeon. In LA, they are putting parking underground whenever they redevelop an area. If you want a walkable city, parking must be available for out-of-town guests without sprawling asphalt across a single piece of valuable real estate.
Parking garages don't need to resemble big concrete pillboxes.
On the other hand, they cost a lot of money.
