The Veggie Table: How to Get More Whole Grains in Your Diet
by Janel Ovrut Funk in Uncategorized, January 9, 2012We're teaming up with fellow food bloggers and healthy eating advocates to host a Healthy Every Week Challenge, a month-long initiative to develop healthy eating habits. The plan an is to develop a manageable healthy habit each week that will carry through the new year. Join us here and share what you're eating on Facebook and Twitter with the hashtag #gethealthy.
If you're following a vegetarian or vegan diet, chances are a good portion of your plate is already made up of grains. But the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends that at least half of all the grains you eat are whole grains. What's so special about whole grains? They're naturally packed with high amounts of fiber, and micro-nutrients like folic acid, magnesium, and vitamin E. All grains are low in fat and cholesterol free, and they typically have between 5-10 grams of protein per cup, which is great new for those of us following a plant-based diet. All that fiber and protein in whole grains helps to fill us up and keep us satisfied, making them great for weight management. Better yet, they've been linked to a lower risk of heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers.
Many people unnecessarily shy away from whole-grains because they're intimidated by less common varieties like triticale, quinoa (pronounced keen-wah, which is actually from the seed family), bulgur and barley or aren't sure how to cook them. But it's easier than ever to get more whole grains in your diet – even if you don't cook! Many food companies are catching on to the whole-grain trend and are selling pre-cooked whole grains, like Uncle Bens Whole-Grain Brown Ready Rice, Amy's Frozen Steel Cut Oats, or Trader Joe's prepared Multigrain Pilaf. Cooking them from scratch is simple, too. Usually all it takes is a 2:1 ratio of water to whole grain on the stove-top, cooked just like you would make rice. Here are some easy (and tasty!) ways to get more whole grains into every meal and snack of your day:
- Whole wheat pancakes with nutty topping
- Steel cut oats with dried fruit and nuts
- Whole grain cereal (like mini-wheats or Uncle Sam) with fruit and low fat milk
- Whole wheat toast topped with peanut butter and banana slices
- Egg and salsa breakfast burrito wrapped in a whole wheat tortilla
- Hummus and roasted veggie panini on whole-wheat bread
- Minestrone soup made with whole wheat pasta
- Brown rice and bean burrito or soft tacos wrapped in a whole wheat tortilla
- Personal pizza with veggies on a whole wheat pita
- Spinach Artichoke Pizza on whole-wheat crust
- Kale and Mushroom "Risotto" using old fashioned oats
- Lemon Basil Bulgur (no cooking necessary!)
- Quinoa with Apricots, Almonds and Asparagus
- Butternut Squash, Barley and Kale Stew
- Whole wheat crackers like Triscuits and hummus
- Homemade whole wheat tortilla chips with salsa or guacamole
- Coconut Brown Rice Pudding
TELL US: How are you going to get more whole grains in your diet this year?

'Green banks': The answer to clean energy's subsidy woes?
(Read article summary)Green banks, clean-energy finance banks that operate as public-private financing institutions, are being touted as a life-line that will push the clean energy industry into maturity, according to OilPrice.com
David Vincent/AP/File
As America's clean energy industry takes up position in a no-man's land between subsidies and sustainability, the idea of "Green Banks" is being touted as a life-line that will push the industry into maturity, but it's an idea that will only work on a state level and by empowering states to make their own clean energy decisions.
Green Banks are essentially clean energy finance banks formed at the federal or state level that operate as public-private financing institutions with the power to raise capital to support clean energy projects through loans and loan guarantees. These banks can issue bonds and sell equity and they can often offer cheap loans.
In the US, it is the state level that would likely take the lead in forming Green Banks, and the state of Connecticut has already taken the plunge with the establishment of the Clean Energy Finance and Investment Authority (CEFIA). Launched last year, CEFIA merges several clean energy funds whose revenues come from a utility system benefit fund and the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, among others, with a financing authority repurposed as a clean energy investment bank. Presently, CEFIA is talking with solar photovoltaic stakeholders to boost the bundle, and according to the Brookings Institute, is close to making its first loans. (RELATED: Will a Melting Arctic Help Postpone Peak Oil?)
In Germany and the United Kingdom, the idea of the Green Bank has also taken hold, with a clean energy development bank already boasting success in Germany, while the UK's is only just getting off the ground. The UK's version, however, is experiencing some setbacks in and a recession and deficit that is not falling as planned, the UK Green Investment Bank is behind on gaining borrowing powers.

Kick, Push: Rappers and Skateboarding
Skateboarders have loved and been influenced by rap for decades now, but it was mostly a one-way relationship — until now. The hip hop community is unabashedly embracing skateboarding like never before. On Wednesday, September 26, Lil Wayne, who last year needed stitches after a skating slip-and-fall, cut the ribbon on his new Trukstop skate park, located in the Lower 9th Ward of his native New Orleans. The grand opening came just a few weeks after Weezy announced he was launching a new shoe line with skate-shoemaker Supra. He also premiered his Trukfit skating apparel line earlier this year. But Weezy's moves are just the latest sign of the convergence between hip hop and skating. Click on for a look at rappers on wheels. —Alex Gale

Why is it that more than five thousand people in the US, mostly young people, start using illegal drugs every day?
Is it peer pressure? Is it because the media are constantly promoting drugs as the remedies to every ill? Or maybe it's because the people who make and sell drugs know exactly what 'buttons' to push to make a youngster want to use.
Although all of these are contributing factors, they couldn't have an impact on our kids if there was effective drug education and drug abuse prevention in schools or other places where young people gather. The war on drugs will only be won by educating our children about the dangers of drugs.
In addition to rehabilitating those who have fallen into the trap of drug abuse, Narconon staff work very hard to prevent young people from using drugs in the first place. The Narconon Drug Prevention and Education program has provided drug education programs to school children in Southern California for over 30 years and has reached hundreds of thousands students.
We offer a comprehensive series of interactive presentations for students in grades three through twelve on the many subjects of drug use and abuse, drug prevention and drug education and drug abuse prevention..
For more information, please contact:Narconon® Drug Prevention & Education 1-855-734-2223
Prevention Programs DO Work
A drug education program with a different approach is reaching thousands of students in Southland schools -- and creating a wave of much-needed optimism that we can stem the tide of abuse.

Ask Fiddlesticks
Senior Member
Crow bump
Script Lord
A rather ominous fellow clad in black seems to fade into the Chamber of Dread as if he were always there, his face bore a grin so sinister that even Death itself might cringe at the sight of it. "Ooh, look at the adorable little dolly~" His voice was soft and light, like a feather, but has a rather wicked undertone to it. He was certainly amused at the sight of the Harbinger of Doom, completely callous to the danger he had placed himself in by coming to interact directly with the scarecrow. {{ Just humor me for a bit. }}
The instant the intrepid killer entered the Chamber, his fate was most assuredly sealed. Surely. However even Fiddlesticks can humor people for a little bit. However nothing would stop the encroaching sense of dread and despair that would worm it's way into his mind. However the Harbinger would not move. Propped up in one corner, his big silly grin smiling brightly, the scythe hanging loosely in one hand. He seemed, unresponsive. A crow sat on a shoulder, it's eyes glowing a bright and dreadful green.
HEY! HEY! FIDDLESTICKS! HEY! YOU'RE AWESOME! You, Cho'Gath, and Nocturne should combine your dastardly, scary awesomeness powers to destroy and/or take over the world. 'Kay. Thanks. -Lexperiments, a Random Summoner

Nine Writers And Publicists Tell All About Readings And Book Tours
Author readings and book tours are not an essential component of the writing or publishing processes, and so these events have long been associated with a kind of miasmic purposelessness. Go to your basic reading and sit in the back row, where if you squint, you will see above the head of almost everyone involved—the writer(s)/reader(s), the audience, the publicist, the bookseller, the sales clerk(s) who set up the chairs and must wait around to take them down before heading out to an indie-rock show, the local reporter doing a trend piece on the decline of readings—a clump of thought bubbles bumping up against each other like trapped balloons, all imprinted with slight variations of the same theme, namely: "Why are we here?"
Writers (and to varying extent, their publishers) have long struggled to justify the relevance of readings, both to themselves and to prospective audience members. In 450 BC, for example, when Herodotus (a.k.a. "The Father of Lies") published his nine-volume epic The Histories and soon after announced his intention to read from his work at an outdoor café/independent bookstore in Halicarnassus, he sent out the following message by runner: "You guys, I'm reading on Tuesday night—hope you can make it!—there's going to be free booze ☺" To which his best friend nevertheless responded, also by runner: "Sorry, I'm going to be out of town ☹" which (although the record is unclear) we can assume was a lie, given that the event in question conflicted with a much-anticipated television broadcast of Sophocles' Ἠλέκτρα.
Yet writers continue to promote their events, with or without the help of their publishers—and occasionally, the stars align and the event in question is deemed a success, or at least not a complete disaster. Here with advice, lessons learned as well as horror stories of readings and book tours past are authors Shane Jones, Laurie Weeks, Charles Yu, Tao Lin, Sheila McClear, Jon Michaud and myself; publicists Lauren Cerand and Brian Ulicky; and event organizer Jennie Portnof.
After my first novel, Light Boxes, was picked up by Penguin (it was originally published by the incredible Adam Robinson at Publishing Genius), one of the first questions my parents asked was, "Are you going to go on a book tour?" This question seems like a kind of knee-jerk reaction, because I'm not sure what people outside of publishing and writing would ask other than this or how much money you're going to get. It's nice to be able to say, "Yes, I'm going on tour." And if your family ever asks about book money always tell them, "One million dollars."
I've disliked giving readings in the past. But I'd be lying if I didn't admit that I always wanted to go on a book tour. When you're submitting flash fiction to Kitty Fart Face Review and you see another writer going on a twelve-city tour with a novel, you too want that. You kind of crave it, even if you deny yourself in expressing it. The basic idea of readings connects to the ego in all of our little writer bellies. We want to be read and heard. After spending so much time fucking around alone, forming words into sentences and sentences into paragraphs and paragraphs into a novel that someone is willing to publish (they believe in you!), it kind of feels good to stand up and let people see you.
I did a solo six-city tour for my first book that was paid for by the publisher (I believe the budget was $5,000, which, thinking about it now, seems incredible and reckless that they would do such a thing). I live in Albany New York. Here are the cities I read in, in the order I visited, how I got there, and the most memorable thing I can remember without trying to think too hard:
• Albany (drove myself; made eye contact with my mom in the
• Boston (plane; before reading sat in a bar alone and ate a
hamburger served on an English muffin).
• New York City (train; was 100 degrees outside).
• Portland (plane; during the Q&A a man asked if I was
surprised when Spike Jonze bought the film option. I said no, that
I expected it. Not sure he picked up on the sarcasm, felt like an
• Seattle (train; read in what was possibly the basement of the
• Los Angeles (plane; drinking three cups of coffee—not a good idea
before a reading)
• Back to Albany (plane; last person to board the plane, sat
between two massive dudes reading James Patterson).
My publisher was supportive during the publishing process and tour. There's a weird vibe for a debut novel: this build up a few months prior to publication, where everyone wants you to do well, visions of solid sales numbers and great reviews. But the reality (and I'm trying hard not to be cynical sounding here) is that the publication day comes, the first tour date lands, and it's just like every other day except you have a book to hold and read from. Which makes the "we're sending you on a book tour" such a crazy hopeful thing for a publisher to do and I'm pretty grateful for it.
The single worst experience I had on tour was my reading in Albany. No one showed up besides my family and a few friends. When I say my family showed up I don't mean my mom. I mean my mom, dad, grandmother, sister, aunt, uncle, three cousins, etc. It was great (they were there to support me) but also embarrassing because no one else was there. Where were my fans? To make it worse, the bookstore did no introduction (the clerk told me: "Go ahead, whenever") and I had to slowly walk up to the podium, introduce myself to my family, and read. The best way I can describe this experience is to picture having a dream where you're reading some fiction you wrote while standing on top of the dining room table in your parent's house during your little brother's birthday party.
As I'm writing this, one big question looms: are readings worth it? That is, do people buy books and connect with the author and all those things the publisher wants to happen, do they actually happen? Yes, people buy books. On my tour, I believe I sold books to people who normally wouldn't have bought the book. Does it make up for the expenses paid by the publisher? No way. I can't see how, and maybe that's why for my second novel Penguin won't be sending me on a tour. Did I connect with people? I don't know. Maybe? It's a hard question to answer. I think I connected with a few people who thought I was a decent real human being and the connection (not just lonely reader and invisible author) maybe gets a little deeper, changes in weird and cool ways.
I'm glad I went on my book tour. It's kind of a dream scenario for writers (especially having everything paid for), but it's also humbling. The largest crowd I had was maybe thirty people. The others I averaged between 10-15, and who knows how many of them were bookstore staff or distant family relatives.
Here's some advice I need to say in relation to book promotion and readings: don't take it too seriously. Book publicity in general is complete chaos. From my experience, it's a guessing game and no one has any idea what's going to sell. Face it, not many people are going to care about your book. Worry about writing a book that you love. Why 50,000 people buy a book compared to 5,000 people for another book is anyone's guess. So, if you're going to go on a book tour and give readings, remember to have fun. I think I took myself too seriously. When signing the few copies for "fans" I looked toward the registers to see if people were buying my book. That's silly. I feel embarrassed for doing that. I wish I would have relaxed more, maybe took some pictures.
Leaving confession: my family, at my Albany reading, bought more
copies than any other reading.

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is an interchange format intended to be machine and human readable. JSON is defined by RFC 7159 which is completely language independent, but uses conventions familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including c,c++,c#,java, javascript, perl, python, and many others. These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language. It is often used in lieu of xml because of its lightweight and compact structure.
JSON defines six types of values: null, numbers, strings, booleans, arrays and objects. Note that with regards to objects, the order of members is not significant, and the behaviour of a JSON parser when duplicate member names are encountered is undefined.

Lights, Cameras ... Camp!

Jamie Donovan plays six different bass pans at the same time. He stands in the middle of six drums and maneuvers around to get the 12 notes his instrument is capable of. He's so proficient at it his teacher often calls on him to set an example of the rhythm.
No wonder he's having a good time this summer. Playing in a steel band for the first time, he feels he always has a part and is really needed.
The new experiences and fun emerged at tech rehearsal this past Thursday for Jamie and the 70 or so other participants in the Shubert Theater's third annual summer theater arts camp.
It operates out of Cooperative Arts and Humanities High School, whose teachers and students, like rising senior Gabriel Ortiz (pictured), serve as instructors and mentors to the camp's middle-school age kids.
The young musicians, singers, movie-makers, hip-hop dancers, and visual artists were gearing up for their end-of-summer showcase for their family and friends Thursday night.
About half the campers come from New Haven. The other half from the Greater New Haven area, said the camp's director Kjerstin Pugh. The kids attend from from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. taking two intense 90-minute classes before lunch, and another after lunch with fun and relaxation, field trips and hanging out in between.
Wednesday, for example, Matt Kelsey, who teaches video production at Betsy Ross Arts Magnet School, took his summer group to check out the gadgets at the Apple Store. Thursday he was assembling the kids—some of whom were also performing in the steel band—to show the movies they had made in his short film production class.
They were going to be showing those too during tech.
"The kids are fearless with technology," said Kelsey. Each went from zero to writing, directing, and finishing four short films each in the two-week camp period, he said.
This is the first summer where the camp, which ran between July 7 and Aug. 1, was split into two sessions of two weeks each, added Pugh. That was to give "opportunities to explore other arts," Pugh said.
Also new is that each of the sessions was itself divided into two. Kids like Jamie or Gina Misuralo (pictured), who hails from West Haven, could take the three-class option, while other kids who want to work strictly in musical theater did that.
The musical theater kids were also gearing up for their performance, a review based on material from Aladdin which takes place Friday night.
Click here for a story about previous year's performance of You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown.
While many of these kids are involved in the arts in their schools during the course of the year, the camp's menu of classes—like the steel band—are offerings not often available at, for example, Hopkins where Jamie goes to school.
He called playing in the steel band "cool," something he'd always wanted to try.
"He's very solid," said his teacher, Kenneth Joseph, who conducts the steel band at Highville Charter School in Hamden during the regular school year.
"You always have a part, you feel needed," said Jamie.
Kat Watkins, who goes to school in North Haven, also cited a more "with it" quality to the material the kids are learning and performing. "In chorus [at her school] we sing the older songs, here we sing fun, rock-on songs," she said.
The kids exuded quiet confidence. Gina said she was calm about the performance of "Cups" from the movie Pitch Perfect, which her group was doing with the steel band.
She admitted, however, to being a little nervous about her hip hop dance. Then she went off to find her group to get ready to rehearse it.

The ever-popular Rosa Mexicano probably serves as many hungry diners lime-green guacamole as McDonald's serves hamburgers. Okay, not exactly in the billions, but it's hard to refuse the table-side prep of its classic dip done in the traditional molcajete or mortar and pestle. Try the recommended variations spiked with mangoes, peaches, and even lobster.
Guacamole en Molcajete
Remember Food Network's Two Hot Tamales? We do! Chefs Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger still crank out Latin flavors at their West Coast Border Grill. Their secret ingredient? Tropical fruit and those husked little tomatillos. Hint: Try roasting until charred for a smoky flavor.
It's no surprise that the "King of Creole" bolsters his guac with Louisiana seafood. Chunks of lump crabmeat mix with jicama, jalapeños, red onion, tomatoes, and hot spice to create a guacamole that's so hearty it could be eaten as a meal!
Not only are the avocados ripe in summer, but so's the corn. Simply Mexican author Lourdes Castro mixes the season's best in her roasted corn guacamole. Castro's guacamole works as a stand-alone, or cook up her recipe for fresh corn soup: the perfect main for an outdoor lunch with friends.
Mexico City native Richard Sandoval's 12 Mexican restaurants all have the go-to guacamoles on their menus. His standouts, though, are the crunchy spiced pumpkin seed and the sweet and crunchy variation flecked with pomegranate seeds.
Guacamole with Chipotle and Spiced Pumpkin Seeds
Guacamole de Granada
Mild vidalia onion, strawberries, and yes, pineapple, sweeten up the traditional creamy appetizer in Julian Medina's version. Serve with an icy-cold watermelon margarita and you have a fruity way to start your fiesta.
Fruit Guacamole
Honorary Mexican chef Rick Bayless is famous for his authentic Latin cuisine at his Chicago restaurants Frontera Grill and Topolobampo, where he takes classic Mexican to a whole new level. Thankfully, we nabbed two versions of his guacamole recipes. Our fave? Guacamole bumped up with the ultimate ingredient: bacon!
Avocado, mango, jicama, chipotle, and pico de gallo meld together to form Mercadito's twist on the creamy stuff. Serve with chips or as a topper to quesadillas or even grilled chicken or a juicy turkey burger.

Outbuildings, garages and basements are often built with cinderblock walls because of their ease of installation, durability and ability to help control erosion.
The outbuilding is divided into 3 sections. The central section is where the firewood is stored. Each section has a doorway that joins it to the next section.
Small spaces, outbuildings and basement bathrooms can be some of the toughest projects on the bathroom remodeling spectrum. With so much happening in so little space, you've got to plan a lot in advance.

Even after two and a half days spent comparing six heavy-duty string trimmers at the edges of trails, barns, outbuildings and stone walls, no victor had emerged.
"When we started, we wanted a place for the kids to play their Wii Sports, which takes a lot of room," says the wife, and the seldom-used outbuilding near the pool offered a solution.
By far the most common outbuilding we build is a garage. We replace a lot of garages that are falling down now because they were originally built without a foundation — just a slab on the ground. The result is predictable.
Rolled roofing material is the mainstay of outbuildings and other less-than-beautiful structures, and of low-slope residential roofs. Roll roofing, as the name implies, comes in rolls of 100 square feet, each about 3 feet wide.
You can also use an empty corner in an existing outbuilding. Wall in the upper half to keep strong winter winds away. Sturdy wire should be applied over the bottom half to help keep pets and predators at bay.

Medium sized ones are ideal for bigger garages and small outbuildings up to about 12 feet in height while large ones are needed for a barn or house that is two or more stories high.
The success or failure of any outbuilding relies heavily on its foundation. No structure -- regardless of how well it's designed or built -- will survive for very long on a weak or poorly made base.
Do not plant trumpet vines close to homes or outbuildings. The aerial roots that the vine produces creep under shingles and boards and lift them; the heavy vines may collapse structures that are not sturdy.
Ceiling rafters in an outbuilding are a good choice for a hanging location. Hammer nails into the rafters or other wooden structure at least 8 inches from the ground, so the bundles hang without the tips of the trimmings touching the ground.
At 5300′ elevation the cave house, guest house, and various outbuildings make an ideal retreat. A natural creek flows through the property and has lovely swimming pools with rock patios.
Freezing wine is not an option, so be wary of storing wine bottles in an outbuilding unless you control the temperatures within the building. Freezing temperatures can cause corks to pop out or bottles to break.

The Digital Skeptic: Shirley Jones is No Fan of Apple (or Any Technology)
NEW YORK -- Apple (AAPL) may be gearing up production at its Chinese vendor FoxConn. Or offering new discounts on iPhones. But Shirley Jones is not impressed.
"I have some things from Brookstone, maybe a Nokia (NOK)," Jones told me during a serendipitous 15-minute chat at a New York media event. "I don't have a Facebook (FB - Get Report) page. I know how it works, but technology does not interest me. I'd rather be out skiing."
Jones was signing autographs, making chatter and bringing some much needed luster -- she looked fabulous, by the way -- to a tech vendor event here on New York's west side. That's the nitty-gritty of what we geek analysts do: show up and troll through large rooms full of company representatives, showing off the latest devices from the likes of Samsung, Lenovo and Blackberry (RIMM). About 150 journalists and analysts came out this night looking for news. Of which, trust me, there was not much of.
Electronics has officially become an extension of the Web these days -- 10,000 sites and nothing on.
Until I started talking with Ms. Jones. And, wouldn't you know it, the once and future star of The Partridge Family, Oklahoma, The Music Man and many other films, plays and TV shows turned out to pack some serious tech investor street cred. "I just think most of this is just so boring," she said, as she sipped her martini during a break from signing autographs, gesturing around a room full of so-called cutting-edge tech. A $25 million JonesInvestors would be foolish to dismiss this Academy Award-winning actress -- she was so great in Elmer Gantry -- as illiterate to the ways of money. CelebrityNetWorth.com estimates she's worth about $25 million, an impression confirmed by what had to be 10 carats of jewelry on her wedding ring finger and the clear look of satisfaction from someone whose agent site says she fetches between $10,000 and $20,000 per appearance. Tonight she was doing nothing more than sitting under a giant fake TV, signing autographs. The more I spoke with Ms. Jones, the more I realized she not only knows her technology; I had found a sister in skeptical arms. When I asked her about how she manages social media or communicates with her kids, "On the phone. What else would you use?" she said. "I have 12 grandkids. They don't use Facebook anymore."

First from India in the Climate Neutral Network - Press Release
Tweet |
7 Comments |
IPL cricket team becomes India's first CN Net participant Nairobi, 20 June 2011 – Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) – a successful team in the Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket competition – has announced its participation in the Climate Neutral Network (CN Net), an initiative of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). CN Net is at the forefront of the movement towards a global transition to low carbon economies and societies. RCB becomes the first participant from India and the first sports team in the world to become a member of the Climate Neutral Network. Satinder Bindra, Director of Communications at UNEP said, "Royal Challengers Bangalore has long shown leadership on the cricket field – and it has also shown inspirational leadership in the environmental arena to mobilize its fans and followers in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. UNEP is proud to welcome RCB as the first India-based participant of the Climate Neutral Network – more inspirational leadership from RCB, which we hope will inspire even greater efforts in India to tackle climate change". According to Sidhartha Mallya, Director of RCB, RCB's green initiatives began in 2010, during the third season of the IPL. A number of unique initiatives have been implemented, including car pooling solutions for fans coming to the stadium, waste segregation at the stadium and effective disposal through recycling and composting, collaboration with the Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation for additional buses to and from RCB's home stadium, and placing a carbon footprint calculator on the RCB website. The initiatives helped RCB reduce its carbon footprint by almost 50,000 kilograms of CO2e and more importantly created awareness and change in more than 100,000 fans directly. This year RCB has gone a step further and is committed to becoming the first carbon neutral cricket team in the world. Carbon neutrality for RCB is being achieved through a unique fan-driven initiative – of the fans, for the fans and by the fans – through which individual RCB fans adopt small environment-friendly changes in their regular lifestyle, and pledge their emission reductions to RCB. Each of the green initiatives has the dual objective of generating awareness about environmental issues and generating real and significant emissions reductions. The initiatives that RCB has engaged in include: Sapling Plantation drives at schools, colleges and communities through a unique 'Adopt a Plant' approach; solar water heater initiative; renewable energy themed contests on social networks; specially designed events to encourage people to use electric cars/bikes; actively supporting and adopting Bus Day by urging all the fans to travel by bus every Bus Day; and a switch over to CFL low energy light bulbs drive. Through these initiatives emissions reductions of 2000 tons have been achieved to date. RCB expects to officially become Carbon Neutral after it receives a certificate from Det Norske Veritas – a leading global audit agency – which is currently auditing the data. "Carbon Neutrality is not a destination for us, but the first step, in our journey of bringing environmental awareness and lifestyle change in the daily activities of ordinary people," said Sidhartha Mallya.

For new questions please post at magento.stackexchange.com, the community-run support site for the Magento community. We will be providing updates on the new forum solution soon. For questions or concerns please email email@example.com.
I\'ve been working on this problem for several days now, with no luck. I\'ve set up my store, and everything works fine, except for international shipping with UPS. My client only wants UPS and for some reason, the international shipping just won\'t work. Here is the error message I get when trying to checkout:
Sorry, no quotes are available for this order at this time.
I\'ve already talked with UPS and they don\'t think anything is wrong on their end. I\'m not sure where to go from here, but it is very frustrating. I\'ve tried a lot of different things/suggestion that I\'ve found of the forum, but none seem to work. I\'m using the full version of Magento Community Edition v 1.7
Below is the a link to the site:
Any help on this issue would be appreciated.

Ecolab Announces Pricing Of Senior Notes Offering
Ecolab Inc. announced today it has priced an underwritten public offering of $500 million of 1.450% senior notes due 2017. The offering is expected to close on December 13, 2012, subject to customary closing conditions.
Ecolab intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to finance a portion of the cash consideration to be paid in connection with its previously announced acquisition (the "Champion Merger") of Permian Mud Service, Inc., the parent company of Champion Technologies and Corsicana Technologies (collectively, "Champion"). If the Champion Merger is not consummated, Ecolab may use all or a portion of the net proceeds for general corporate purposes or, under certain circumstances, together with any additional funds, as necessary, to fund the special optional redemption of the notes. Ecolab and Champion are targeting and working toward closing the Champion Merger by the end of the year; however, the Champion Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including clearance under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the ''HSR Act''). Ecolab and Champion are in active and ongoing discussions with the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice regarding its review of our HSR filing relating to the Champion Merger. While Ecolab believes that it can resolve any issues in discussions with the Department of Justice, it can provide no assurance that the Champion Merger will be completed in the targeted time frame, or at all.
Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and RBS Securities Inc. are acting as joint book-running managers for the offering. The offering is being made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), and only by means of a prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus, copies of which may be obtained on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov or by contacting Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated at (800) 294-1322 or RBS Securities Inc. at (866) 884-2071.
This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

In this world you're surrounded by sexual images that open the door to temptation. They're everywhere–on TV, billboards, magazines, music, the internet–and so easy to access that it sometimes feels impossible to escape their clutches. Yet God expects his children to be sexually pure. So how can you survive the relentless battle against temptation? Here's powerful ammunition. Steve Arterburn and Fred Stoeker, the authors of the hard-hitting best-seller Every Man's Battle, now focus on the temptations young single Christian men like you face every day–and they offer workable, biblical strategies for achieving sexual purity.
The authors examine the standard of Ephesians 5:3–"there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality"–in a positive and sensitive light. And they explain how an authentic, vibrant relationship with Jesus Christ is the key to victory over temptation. Every Young Man's Battle will show you how to train your eyes and your mind, how to clean up your thought life, and how to develop a realistic battle plan for remaining pure in today's sexually soaked culture. As a result, you'll experience hope–real hope–for living a strong, pure life God's way

On a freezing cold morning Diane picked us up and took us to the cemetery (as you do). Thus began our tour of New Orleans. Whilst the tour suggests architectural, you will get an historical account of the City. Loved it The only thing that perhaps could have improved this tour is more opportunity to get out of the bus (even if only for a frozen moment) and take a photo or two. OMG the park with the art (sorry don't remember the name) where we stop for coffee - incredible. Take the time to walk through the sculptures. It is attached to NOMA. And you absolutely must eat the beignets at the 'Morning Call'. Oh you must! This is a must do tour if heading to New Orleans.
Our guide was very informative. We really enjoyed the Garden District and the French Quarter. Being picked up at our hotel was a plus.
Our tour guide was very imformative.
Very nice tour.
Our tour guide, Diane, was very knowledgeable and has a nice sense of humor. This was our first trip to New Orleans and this was a great way to get an overview of the city. There were only 7 of us on this tour so the seating was very comfortable and all sight lines for viewing were unobstructed. We have booked several tours in other cities through Viator and will continue to do so.
This is a great tour to discover the different parts of New Orleans and it's history. Our tour was changed to include some post Katrina sights which was a bonus and other parts were removed. The small group allowed us to ask questions and get a more intimate feel for the place which is hard to do on a large tour. Our driver/guide Muriel had a deep knowledge of everything NOLA. She has a great presentation style that we found downright charming and funny. The tour operatour was very organized dealing with changes to the tour schedule. Recommended!
I enjoyed the tour. The guide was very friendly and demonstrated considerable history knowledge of the architecture of the city. It was a great tour which I did not feel that we rushed at all and had time to explore on my own, but enjoyed the day learning about the interesting history and life in New Orleans.
A very good tour of the entire city. Glad I took it on my first day in New Orleans.
Diane was terrific and very knowledgeable. Made the family outing truly enjoyable.
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. It gave us a full sense of understanding and enjoying New Orleans then and now. A full four hours in a van small enough to go where typical tour buses cannot go, with enough opportunity to stretch and an excellent tour of Longvue. Our guide was friendly and considerate, knowledgeable of history, geography, the economy and the art and culture of this unique city, though with an unfortunate tendency to refer to seminal events as "before Jesus Christ". We saw cemetaries, bayou, traces of Hurricane Katrina, the French Quarter, Lake Pontchartrain, Carrollton, Lafayette, antebellum mansions and many places of note.. How and why the city grew was well explained. We would recommend this tour and felt it delivered value.
The tour was very interesting to say the least. We got a lot of information from the guide.
The tour was generally what we expected, just a quick overview. The ride was VERY rough due to the poor streets and bad shocks on the van.
The tour guide was very informative and we were taken to a variety of interesting places. The big negative to this tour was the type of van used and the number of people on the tour. We had a regular van that carries a total of 15 people. The van was completely full. Two issues: #1 In this day of heavier people, filling the van so full, having to squeeze together into seats is less than ideal. #2 - The van had standard windows, so the people in the middle of the van, between other people could not see the various things we were told about. The way to improve this is to use the sightseeing vans with individual seats and long windows- then both problems solved!
Please reverse my comments. John was out guide to this tour.
Dillon was the guide to this tour and he was excellent! He had the luxury of some distance to tell stories between sights where in the city proper everything just follows quickly. We enjoyed both tours, but dillon's experience was excellent!
This tour shouldn't be called an Architectural tour, it was more of a general city tour. Also, we were sitting in the back of the van and the driver couldn't hear our questions. We were also looking at a map we had been given and couldn't follow what was being said about the map. I called the local tour company and complained as well. They would like to rename the tour City Tour. I am glad they added in a part about the Katrina devastation.
