Budget day has come and gone at the Saskatchewan Legislature. This year, the Saskatchewan Party is looking to put more shovels in the ground.
The government budgeted $14.17 billion in spending for 2016, more than any other year in Saskatchewan's history. Despite being hit hard by the collapsing price of oil last year, the 2015/16 Saskatchewan Budget shows a surplus of $107 million.
One of the budget's biggest impacts is the Saskatchewan Builds Capital Plan. The Plan, consisting of a whopping $5.8 billion over four years, will fund upgrades to the province's highways, schools, health care facilities, and other areas. The plan involves $700 million in borrowed money for notable infrastructure projects, including the proposed $211 million Regina bypass project and another $337.8 million in highway construction.
"The Saskatchewan Builds Capital Plan is ambitious," said Minister of Finance Ken Krawetz. "But at a time when we face revenue challenges, our government faced a choice. Do we delay and cancel projects, or do we keep building?"
"We chose to keep building."
Saskatchewan's Crown corporations, such as SaskPower, SaskEnergy, and SaskTel, will spend another $2 billion this year on infrastructure. This spending includes a $1.2 billion project to SaskPower to fix transmission and power distribution systems. The infrastructure funding comes at a crucial time for the province as Saskatchewan's highway system has not grown as fast as Saskatchewan's population.
While the fund is scheduled to build brand new schools in Warman, Gravelbourg, and Hudson Bay , Saskatchewan's existing schools are in need of repair. A 2013 report by the Saskatchewan School Board Association discovered that, "beyond the need for new school facilities, approximately 75 percent of the roofing systems in Saskatchewan schools will fail within the next five years. Furthermore, the average age of Saskatchewan schools is approximately 50 years."
Despite this report, additional money will not be pledged to repair existing schools in this year's budget. The Ministry of Education's budget has also been cut by $4.2 million this year.
"The government won't pass the benefit of higher revenues onto everyday families," said Trent Wotherspoon, the Opposition's Finance critic. Cam Broten, the leader of the Saskatchewan NDP, agrees, saying, "There's no commitment here to actually fix the things that families are caring about the most."
Crowded classrooms, limited school resources, and the failure to address infrastructure in hospitals and senior care homes are some of the NDP's biggest concerns.
Advanced education will also take a financial hit under this year's budget, as both the Innovation and Science Fund and the Science and Technology Research Fund have had their funding cut off. Between the two, Saskatchewan's Ministry of Advanced Education will be losing money to the tune of more than $15 million.
For University of Regina President Vianne Timmons, today's budget announcement is difficult news. "I have no doubt that today's provincial budget will necessitate difficult decisions at our university," she said. The U of R, along with the rest of Saskatchewan's universities and colleges, is facing high cuts under this year's budget. More than $12 million is being cut from the funding envelope for universities and colleges, about 2.5 per cent of their annual funds.
The budget also contained bad news for several demographic groups. Saskatchewan's Graduate Retention Plan, a key part of keeping Saskatchewan's brightest minds in the province after graduating, saw drastic changes. Instead of running for seven years with a 10 per cent tax rebate in the first four and a 20 per cent tax rebate in the last three, the revised program will run for 10 years at a constant 10 per cent rebate.
Out of all provincial agencies, the Saskatchewan Housing Corporation was hit hardest by the budget axe, facing $5.5 million in cuts this fiscal year. Saskatchewan Finance Minister Ken Krawetz stated that for the next year, Sask Housing will run mostly on internal funds.
Cuts are coming to the Seniors' Drug Plan, as the maximum qualification income for the program has been lowered to $65,515 per year. Early estimates say more than 6,000 Saskatchewan seniors will lose their Plan eligibility after the changes take effect on July 1.
The province's Research and Development Tax Credit has also been drastically changed. The Tax Credit is now non-refundable and shrinking from 15 per cent to 10 per cent of qualifying expenditures.
Saskatchewan's Active Families Benefit is also seeing restrictions, as only families with an annual income less than $60,000 will qualify. Saskatchewan's Employment Supplement is also seeing a change in rules, as now only families with children 12 years of age or younger will qualify. In past years, families with children up to 18 years of age were eligible.
Krawetz announced that he was pleased with this year's budget, his last as finance minister. "I'm proud of the last five budgets, and I'm especially proud of this one," he said.
Wotherspoon said it's the same old song and dance from the Sask Party each year, but the auditors may be hearing a different tune.
"The public accounts, when the ink dries at the end of the year, may tell a different story."

HB 277: Direct-to-Consumer Food Sales
This Bill did not reach a floor vote in the House.
Libertas Institute supports this bill.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has stated, as its official opinion, that "There is no absolute right to consume… any particular food." This statement, contained in a reply to a lawsuit filed against it by the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund, lays bare the thinking behind voluminous federal laws and regulations governing the production and sale of food, as exemplified in the contentious passage of the Food Safety Modernization Act a few years ago, which significantly expanded the regulatory reach of this federal agency.
Last year, we published a public policy brief establishing opposition to this claim, asserting that individuals do indeed have the right to grow and consume food, and that neighbors and consumers have the right to acquire food at a farm, free of burdensome regulations intended for—and properly applied only to—food meant to be acquired at restaurants or retail outlets where the consumer is totally unaware of the food's source and safety.
House Bill 277, sponsored by Representative Marc Roberts, advances this initiative by aiming to statutorily exempt direct-to-consumer food sales from certifiation, licensure, regulation, or inspection by the state. This exemption would apply to food that is:
- both produced and sold within the state;
- sold directly to an informed end consumer (who does not resell the food); and
- for home consumption only (not used in preparation at restaurants, sold at retail establishments, etc.).
Before selling food that has been exempted, the producer is required to tell the end consumer that the food is not certified, licensed, regulated, or inspected by the state. Effectively, this creates a "buyer beware" scenario, and allows consumers to access local foods for lower costs, as the producer would not be required to comply with costly regulations designed and properly applied only to producers whose food is sold to individuals who have no awareness regarding the source or safety of the food.

I recently purchased my 1995 bmw 540i with the knowledge that three of the windows were not working properly. I know how to repair the windows but I am having trouble removing the door panels to get to the guts of the door. I have purchased a repair manual but that will not arrive for a few days and i need to have the windows fixed now. I have removed the three screws and popped the door out a certain amount but it seems there is something else holding it that is not connected by screws. Any advice would be much appreciated.

text: I've been considering trying out one of the new Prince racquets, either the Rebel 98 or the Warrior, and wanted to get Prince users' take on the difficulty, or lack thereof, of stringing the port-style frames. I'm not a stringer myself, but would like to get started stringing my own racquets soon. I came across a post on the Guts N' Glory Tennis blog that's very critical of the Prince frames from a stringer's perspective. [Edit: I can't link the actual post per TT rules, apparently]. Does anyone else share this very negative opinion of the Prince frames'? Since I don't string, I can't fully comprehend or visualize the problems mentioned. I just wanted to get more takes on whether or not these frames are truly a bear to string, or if only a very picky stringer and/or advanced player (I'm a 4.0) would notice these issues.

Anyone using the E-5 for sports?
Here I was all content with my E-30 focusing on shooting in studio. Then they release the E-5. I've been happy with my E-30 and lenses in studio but not thrilled about ISO for other types of shooting. Whether nature, or indoors with no flash the noise creeps in. Now I have been asked to do some MMA shoots in their training facility. No big deal I can bring my strobes. But they are also looking for me to shoot their fighters matches now as well. This has me panicking a bit, wondering even if I upgrade to an E-5 will it be up to the task? Or should I look more at the 7D for faster shooting rate and better ISO performance? I hate to leave Olympus especially since it seems the E-5 is such an improvement over anything else they have had. But with the direction I seem to be going ( for now) I question the ISO, FPS, and C-AF. So my question is anyone shooting poorly lit sporting events successfully with the E-5? Any regrets?

As One for iPad brings you all the great case studies, archetypes, and ideas for the As One research project on to a beautiful display that lets you immerse yourself in the story like never before. Just simply tap, flick, and swipe to navigate! Our world is as much about cooperation as it is about conflict; as much about collaboration as competition. For the past two years Deloitte has invested in a major global initiative, the As One project, to study effective collaborations. The project has discovered that there are many modes of "As One behavior†and that all are effective in certain contexts. As One, the book, offers a systematic understanding of As One behavior and bridges the gap between theory and practical advice illustrated with insightful case examples. As One defines eight archetypes of leaders and followers: Landlord & Tenants, Community Organizer & Volunteers, Conductor & Orchestra, Producer & Creative Team, General & Soldiers, Architect & Builders, Captain & Sports Team, and Senator & Citizens. Taking more than 60 cases of successful collective behavior from a wide range of situations, the authors used advanced analytics to identify the key characteristics that define each model and show how you can apply them to your organization.

The Minister of Food and Agriculture announced this when he toured nucleus and outgrower farms GCAP supports in the Accra Plains and the SADA Zone.
The Minister of Food and Agriculture announced this when he toured nucleus and outgrower farms GCAP supports in the Accra Plains and the SADA Zone on September 2-3 and September 27-28 respectively.
Alhaji Mohammed-Muniru Limuna listed the six units as mechanisation, with each centre having at least 10 tractors with accessories and spare parts; inputs, where agro-chemicals and improved seeds can be acquired; an advisory outfit to give free extension services such as technical advice to farmers; a training centre to teach farmers how to use the machinery, and keep them abreast with what is happening in other parts of the world;micro-credit to give loans for farming activities, children's school fees and other immediate needs; and a buy-back unit to create markets for farm produce to prevent post-harvest losses.
Addressing outgrowers at Eden Tree Ltd, a farming enterprise at Dodoekope in the Dangme East District on September 2, Alhaji Limuna said1,600ha of irrigable land will also be attached to each centre for farmers to use when the rains fail. Franchisers will run the centres and make them sustainable.
Cabinet has approved the scheme which will begin with 50 pilot centres, 45 of which will be located in the SADA Zone and five in the rest of the country.
Already the government has taken delivery of 549 out of 1000 tractors it is importing from Brazil, along with accessories, he said.
Alhaji Limuna subsequently visited Abians Agro Enterprise at Asutsuare, which has received US$130,000 in matching grants from GCAP to construct a 2,842-square metre drying floor and complete a 3,000-metric tonne warehouse.
Forty-Thousand US dollars (US$40,000) of the grant went into providing management skills for running the company's outgrower scheme effectively.
Alhaji Limuna later addressed the managements of some agro-business companies, BRLi, design consultants on the Kpong Irrigation Scheme,and farmers at the Golden Exotics Ltd training centre at Asutsuare in the Asuogyaman District.
He said the government has subsidised different models of tractors including Massey Ferguson, Valtra and New Holland by 50 per cent. He urged smallholders to form co-operatives and apply for some. He said they will be distributed to those who need them most and that nobody will be favoured, or denied a tractor because of their party affiliation.
In all, Alhaji Limuna visited seven agro-business companies in his tour of the plains, five of them on the first day.
They include VegPro Ghana Ltd, Anyako Farms, Sugarland Ltd and GADCO.
In the SADA Zone, he visited Akandem Farms Ltd at Chuchuliga, its warehouse at Sandema both in the Builsa North District and farms of the Integrated Water Management and Agricultural Development Ghana Ltd (IWAD)at Yagaba in the Mamprusi West District.
Akandem Farms Ltd developed 346 of its 1000-acre land and grew maize during the 2015-2016 cropping season. GCAP supported it with a grant of US$250,000 to develop 200ha of the land, construct a 200-mt warehouse, and install a solar-powered borehole.
Its outgrowers said they had seen lots of improvements in their living standard since joining the company.They can now pay their children's school fees and National Health Insurance contributions, and buy new clothes as well. Their number has grown from 70 to 120.
At IWADwhich GCAP has supported with US$500,000 to develop 400ha of land for the cultivation of maize, the Managing Director, Tom Durang took the minister and his entourage round the company's pumping station, rice fields, pilot sugar farm, andtree nursery.
Alhaji Limuna then visited the warehouses of the Farmers Training Centre (FTC) at Sumbrungu and Wilphin Enterprise at Kubia, both suburbs of Bolgatanga, and interacted with the companies' managements and outgrowers.
He encouraged them to give of their best, assuring them of government's help to increase production and market their produce. GCAP supported the FTC with US$382,063 to construct its 500-mt warehouse and train its smallholders. Wilphin Enterprise was also assisted with US$195,000 to do the same.
The last two enterprises Alhaji Limuna visited were M-Gallant Farms and Kukobila Nasia Farms, both in the Savelugu-Nanton District. He interacted with the outgrowers and encouraged them to continue to work hard,promising the government will assist them with tractors and irrigation facilities, as indicated in the farm service centres initiative, to increase production.
Alhaji Limuna said he was impressed with the farmers' work and urged them to make good use of the grants to increase production,reduce its cost and alleviate poverty.
He took note of the various challenges facing smallholders,such as high tractor service charges,the lack of shellers and credit,the high-interest rates on credit when it is available, and poor market prices.
He assured them his ministry will do its best to address the problems and make agriculture attractive to the youth.
He appealed to government officials, especially agriculture extension officers, to do their work devoid of partisan politics.

Description: You've most likely seen the Egyptian Vulture in the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, but perhaps you didn't know that those symbols were a representation of the little fellow depicted in this picture. Called "the Pharaoh's Chicken", this bird looks like it might have inherited the attitude of the old pharaohs. Amusingly, its posture almost demands to be taken seriously.

ARTISTS CORNER: This season, mezzo soprano Heather Johnson, last seen as Elizabeth Proctor in the 2011 production of The Crucible, returns to make her role debut as the sultry Maddalena in this seasons production of Rigoletto opening Friday, October 26th.
We asked Ms. Johnson to answer a few questions about life as a singer, what she enjoys about singing in Sarasota and her thoughts on portraying a new type of character Sarasota audiences have never seen her as before.
|Mezzo soprano Heather Johnson
Well, I guess you could say I came to it naturally. My parents are both professional musicians so I've been surrounded by music my entire life. My father is a choral conductor and my mother is pianist/organist (also, my grandfather was an accomplished tenor). They devoted their lives to educating young people in music, including myself. I was drenched with classical music whether it be orchestral, chamber music, oratorio or opera from the time I came out of the womb. I was that kid on the block that could tell the difference between Pavoratti and Domingo or Mozart and Haydn. I starting playing the violin at age 4, then added piano to my studies at age 7 which I continued to study though my college years. I even played the oboe (horribly, I might add) for two years in middle school. Although I loved playing these instruments I REALLY loved singing. I always sang in choirs and did kiddie musicals. I loved the drama of being on stage. When I was 15 I started taking voice lessons and knew that singing, above all, was what I wanted to focus on.
But, it wasn't until I got to college at St. Olaf and had several of my "aha" moments that I knew I wanted to spend my life as a singer. One of these moments was while I was taking a advance opera history class where we focused on four different operas one of which was Aida. I will never forget sitting at the listening station in the music library at St. Olaf having listened to the entire opera and sobbing when I reached the final scene. I was so incredibly moved. I turned to the person next to me with tears running down my face and said "this is the greatest thing I've even heard". They just looked at me like I was crazy and went back to their work. I knew that I was officially addicted to opera.
|Ms. Johnson in the title role of Rossini's La Cenerentola
What are you looking forward to most about performing this particular role?
Maddalena is a new role for me and I always get excited to perform new roles. I'm especially looking forward to sharing the stage with my incredible colleagues and friends. And, I'm not going to lie to you, I like being the "bad girl"! So far here in
I have played two boys (Beppe in L'amico Fritz and Hansel in Hansel and Gretel), Cinderella (La Cenerentola) and a puritan (Elizabeth Proctor in The Crucible). It's fun to let loose and be the sexy vixen. Having played opposite Hak Soo Kim many times in different Rossini operas where we're quite proper and innocent, it's a whole new experience for us to get a little down and dirty in this opera. Sarasota
Is there something unique about your process for preparing for a role for performance?
Every artist prepares roles in different ways so I guess the answer is yes. I always start by reading the libretto. It's imperative to understand the story, your character and how your character relates to others when you start working on a role. I then dive into the music. I always work with my teacher and coach when preparing for a job, even if I've done the role many times. It's always good to refresh it.
What do you want the audience to know about your character? What do you find most challenging about this role?
Maddalena is a woman who does what she needs in order to survivel; she's not all bad (wink wink). I would say the most challenging aspect of the role is it's brevity. I have to pack a lot into a short amount of stage time!
|Ms. Johnson as Elizabeth Proctor in
The Crucible
Nothing really too special. I try to rest the day of a performance both physically and emotionally. I will usually go for a walk to get the blood flowing early in the day then rest and sometimes take a little snooze. It really varies on the role. But when it gets closer to show time I always do the same routine. I eat my meal 2 hours before I have to sing, organize my things I'm bring to the theater then take a long hot shower to really get a ton of steam on my vocal cords. I use that time in the shower to warm up my voice. After that I head to the theater to start getting in make-up. While I'm in my dressing room waiting to start I always look over my score and any notes I need to incorporate into the performance. The last thing I do is put my costume on. For some reason, I like to get "suited up" later than most people would be comfortable about 15-20 minutes before the curtain. The only superstition I have, which isn't really a superstition, is that I have to have my score with me at every performance. I need to be able to look through the role, especially if it's an opera with a lot of recitative, during my time in my dressing room. I guess it's more habit and less superstition.
How do you relax in between performances? What hobbies do you enjoy at home and "on the road"?
It really depends where I am on the gig. Here in
it's like paradise so I love to go to the beach and relax by the water or go for a ride on my bike. But, I usually have to spend a lot of my down time between shows studying for my upcoming engagements and taking care of general life business. I also really love spending time with my colleagues. If you know me you know I'm a very social person and I love to socialize with my colleagues. One of my favorite things to do is have everyone over and cook for them. Sarasota
How do you stay connected to family and friends when you are "on the road"? Do you keep a blog? Website? Facebook? Twitter?
I do a lot of talking on the phone, texting and emailing. I'm on Facebook as well. I am way too boring and lazy to have a blog. Plus, I don't really get blogs.
Are there towns or cities that you have a strong connection with whether from growing up or attending school?
Although I have become a New Yorker having lived there for 14 years I will always be a true
girl at heart. I was born and raised in Minnesota St. Paul, Minnesota, well, right outside of St. Paul in White Bear Lake (GO BEARS!) so is in my blood. Also, central Minnesota is a very special place for me and my family. We spent every summer of my life growing up there at the New Hampshire Music Festival where my father is the choral conductor. Some of my fondest memories are from my time there. New Hampshire
Are there any charities you are passionate about or donate your time?
I am very passionate about arts education. Although not a charity, I have been involved with the Education Department at New York City Opera since 2000 as a teaching artist and curriculum advisor. Even though my performing schedule has become quite full, I always find time to teach my 7th grade opera class at
West Side Collaborative Middle School, a public middle school in . I see the difference music and more specifically opera makes in these young people's lives and I believe by getting them hooked at a young age we will build future audiences and enrich their lives. New York
Don't miss you chance to see Ms. Johnson in this season's fall production of Rigoletto opening this Friday, October 26th and running through November 12th. Tickets are available online at www.sarasotaopera.org or by calling the Sarasota Opera Box Office at (941) 328-1300.

I will basically be using the 155 and 165 for self defense and carry. The 180 will most likely be my hog and deer loads. I'm not really looking for the super duper knock a train off the track load that toasts the brass after 1-2 rds. Bear

After months of an extended and often contentious debate, the GCRTA Board of Trustees finally voted on a series of measures to help the agency balance its budget for the next year. Surprising no one, Board members approved a series of stepwise fare increases that will take effect on August 16, which should increase annual operating revenues by $3.5 million. Single-ride fares will increase to $2.50 from $2.25 currently and, ultimately, rise again to $2.75 in August 2018. All day passes will increase from $5 to $5.50 and ultimately $6, while monthly passes will jump from $85 to $95 and then $105.
For the sake of comparison, WMATA, the Washington, DC area transit operator, charges $1.75 for bus fares and off-peak rail fares; the base fare for on-peak rail users is $2.25. MTA, the transit operator in New York, in turn, charges $2.75 for a single trip and $116.50 for a monthly pass. In other words, Cleveland's fares are now on par with, or even higher than, some of the most extensive transit systems in the country.
But, as we know, the fare increases alone were not enough to cover the $7 million hole in GCRTA's budget. Staff also proposed a series of service reductions that would have cut bus service hours and miles by approximately 4%. Courageously, the Board decided to punt on this issue and make GCRTA's management responsible for approving the service cuts. These cuts, which have been scaled back since the initial proposal, will save the agency less month ($3 million vs. $4 million) but affect fewer customers (1% vs. 1.8%).
One of the more hotly debated portions of this list of service reductions involves GCRTA's Waterfront rail line, which ferries customers from the Tower City transit hub along the Cuyahoga River and lakefront to the South Harbor. The Waterfront Line, which opened to much fanfare during Cleveland's 1996 bicentennial celebration, cost GCRTA roughly $50 million to construct. But ridership soon fell off a cliff, as the city continued to shrink and the Flats entered a prolonged period of decline.
The agency reduced service on the Waterfront Line in 2010, but it subsequently restored it in 2013 to account for new investments on the East Bank of the Flats. While ridership may have increased somewhat since that point – we don't really know – the line has rightfully earned its name as the "Ghost Train." Fewer than 400 people ride the train on weekdays, and nearly all of those people take it during rush hours. During off-peak times, GCRTA says 2 people ride each train, on average.
Personally, I have long questioned the utility of the line. I think I have used it maybe 2 or 3 times in my life. If I am traveling to the Flats or the lakefront, I would much rather walk or hop on a trolley, but I freely acknowledge I'm abnormal.
That said, I do know people who ride the train and see its utility. I also recognize that there is no other transit serving the Flats, and it can be pretty daunting to try and walk up the hill from West 10th to West 9th, particularly if you are of limited mobility.
Moreover, I might be pissed off if I was one of the people investing in the redevelopment of the Flats. Investors and developers thought they had reached an agreement with GCRTA to ensure the Waterfront Line would serve this area. Adam Fishman, the Board Chair of Flats Forward, offered an eloquent articulation of this viewpoint in an op-ed over the weekend. As he wrote,
In 2015, RTA increased services to the Waterfront Line and saw an uptick in riders after the opening of Flats East Bank.
Now, RTA's proposal is to reduce weekday service, to end at approximately 7 p.m. — but limiting service to these new entertainment venues during evening hours when downtown residents are looking to explore dining options is a misstep. Limiting transit service to this area will greatly hurt the potential for growth and will prevent the Flats East Bank from becoming part of the uninterrupted fabric of downtown in the minds of those who live, work and play here.
To an extent, he's right! But we also need to recognize the fact that GCRTA has to balance its budget, and, in the process, it needs to guarantee that the pain is spread evenly. If the agency tried to dump all of the service cuts on low-income communities of color on the East Side, it may have run afoul of federal environmental justice and Title VI guidelines and would almost certainly have facee a lawsuit.
Yes, fixed rail investments can – and should – promote development. But sometimes when you build it, they don't come. GCRTA dumped millions of dollars into the Waterfront Line for 20 years, with little to show for it. Flats developers can't simply demand cuts for thee but not for me.
With all of that in mind, I still have some lingering questions that I wish had been asked during this debate. I think getting this information would have given all of us a clearer picture of the real value of the Waterfront Line, relative to the various bus routes that faced service reductions.
- We should recognize that, while the Flats is turning into something of a playground for wealthy white people, there are a lot of service sector employees who need to work in these establishments. What percentage of these service industry workers in the Flats and along North Coast Harbor rely on/use public transit? How does it compare to other lines that were cut or faced cuts?
- Will reducing service frequency on the Waterfront Line (and the Green line) have any effect on the lifespan of the aging Breda LRV cars? Could it reduce wear and tear on these trains to any noticeable extent?
- If the employers in the Flats are so concerned about protecting rail service, are they willing to pitch in? I've seen various estimates on how much GCRTA would save from cutting Waterfront Line service, varying from $200,000-500,000. The Flats East Bank development represents some $750 million in investments. Some of the entities involved, including Ernst & Young, are worth billions. Could they not come together to help defray or cover the costs of retaining service? Consider the fact that the Cleveland Foundation gave GCRTA $100,000 to provide free trips back in January 2014. And University Hospitals just signed on as the sponsor of Cleveland's bikeshare system. There is a precedent here.
- What steps have Flats employers taken in the past to promote public transit usage among their patrons and employees? What about to promote public transit funding and support among the general public? Do they participate in RTA's Commuter Advantage program? Do they subsidize transit passes? Seeing them actually stick their necks out for transit would mean a lot more, particularly in light of the sea of surface parking lots that they've constructed in the area.
Answering these lingering questions would not have mollified both sides, but it may have given us the information we needed to make a more informed opinion.
[Insert obligatory line blaming the State of Ohio for not funding transit.]

One man repeatedly listed his problems--from being hog-tied at arrest to being told by an officer that "innocent until proven guilty is just a cliché."
The CRC's Outreach Chair, TJ Browning, told the crowd, "We're trying to give you what you want with citizen oversight. We've only been here one year, and we have so much to learn. But we're listening and taking baby steps."
The CRC was instated last July, when public outcry forced Mayor Katz to overhaul the previous police oversight committee. Despite the recent forums, critics are skeptical about whether the new board will be an improvement. In their upcoming policy recommendations, CRC says it plans to focus on the use of officer profanity, but made no mention of pepper spray. ANNA SIMON
WHO'S AFRAID NOW? A year after their first vigil, Portland Peaceful Response (PPR) once again hosted a weekly gathering at Pioneer Square. As usual, there were anti-war poetry readings. But this week also focused on what demonstrators called misguided efforts to fight terrorism--namely, the recent arrest of a local Islamic cleric. Two weeks ago, Sheik Mohamed Kariye was detained at the Portland Airport by members of the Joint Terrorism Task Force, a collaborative effort between federal agents and local police. He was allegedly found in possession of forged documents.
In a press release, Tom Hastings, one of PPR's organizers, asked, "Is it merely coincidence that the Task Force is up for renewal at City Council next week?"
A suspicion is meandering through the city's activist groups that the Task Force's arrest may be an attempt to validate their existence. Although they have expanded from 11 to 40 members, until the arrest of Kariye, the only action by the Task Force over the past year was the detention of four environmental activists accused of arson. At 2 pm on Thursday, September 19, City Council will consider whether to renew the Task Force. PHIL BUSSE

Beautiful day up here today.

From our deck

And out the bedroom window

Retired life is good
Nice.... wish I wast there riding right now. Looks great.

Enjoy it, Becky.
Looks beautiful. You just need to grab someone and put that boat in the water.
Nice... Here is mine today...

Manzo, BRRRRR. But absolutely beautiful.
Much nicer set up than we have here.
Brett, You are so right. That poor boat hardly gets used anymore, and it really took a beating over the winter. It used to be under cover till the winds destroyed it. Then the regular boat cover got beat up too. Don"t know how much longer we will keep it. One of my boys is off work today and is out on the lake fishing. Go figure.
Thats Buttery!
Can't complain about looking out the window and seeing that. Nice back yard!
LOL, not to bad today. 51 out right now and melting that crap away but yes MUCH colder than i would hope for right now.
That's an amazing view, Becky.

Manzo, yours is very nice as well.

I'll go home and post a picture of the view I have...of phone lines
Can't wait to see mine again(I need to clear a few trees!)

Actually Paul, I wish I had more trees. I love the fall colors. As you can see, we have ugly dried up oak trees in the winter. You have a very beautiful view.
Last count was 14 full grown trees on my property. My only request for christmas was a more powerful leaf blower. It's a full time job in the fall. Ha, ha, ha.

Beautiful yes. High maintanence, VERY!!!
I'd kill for any one of those three views. Becky, love the view of all the hills.

Evan, my only request for christmas was for 56 more powerful leaf blowers  we had to take out I think it was 110 oak trees just to build our house. At least everyone is seeing water when they look out their window, and not solid ice like here in Minnesota
view from my deck (but it gets almost too quiet at Lake Ozark in the off season):

whoa u got dereck to go fishing mark that on the calender lol
Ben, you're making me feel better, but even with the big leaf blower I still don't have a view like any of these.

I should take a picture of my creek and post it for amusement. LOL!
Well what difference a day makes. Pretty crappy up here today.

" Treating a Bedbugs Arizona problem has the same challenges as those faced in other areas of the country. Fortunately, in Arizona laws have been passed that specifically address landlord and tenant responsibilities in fighting a bed bug infestation. In Arizona, landlords cannot lease an apartment that they know has bed bugs. Tenants are required to notify landlords when a bed bug problem exists and they cannot bring items that are infested with bed bugs into an apartment. As along as the tenant acted in good faith, landlords are obligated to pay for treatment (review law below). Find below a list of local resources and advice for fighting any Arizona bed bugs infestation."
Arizona has not been immune from bed bugs infestations, with
many reports from the Phoenix area in particular.
If you find you have bed bugs, do not throw out your furniture,
mattress or any other items as in most cases this is not necessary.
Instead either notify your managing agent if you are a tenant
requesting treatment or if you are a homeowner call a professional
exterminator (see below for
suggestions) or purchase a do it yourself kit (see below for required
bed bug products).
The good news for most of Arizona, is that extreme heat, approximately 114 F will kill bed bugs. So if you are traveling, leave your suitcases in a car parked in the direct sun, as this should minimize the risk of bringing bed bugs into your home.
Arizona has some of the best laws for protecting tenants who are suffering from a bed bug infestation. Tenants are obligated to report an infestation in writing the moment they become aware that there is a problem.
Landlords have the following obligations under Arizona bed bug law:
Do not assume that your landlord is paying for the treatment as there are several provisions that make it the tenants responsibility. In general, landlords need to act within 7 days and pay for treatment. Be sure to confirm this with your landlord. You can read the Arizona Bed Bug Law here.
If your landlord has not eliminated the problem, or is not following the statute, then first, contact your local Arizona Attorney General's office which you can find here.
If the Attorney General cannot help mediate the dispute between you and the landlord/managing agency, then hire a lawyer or contact a free Arizona legal aide society in your area to see if they will help you enforce the law.
When planning to sleep in any new bed, check it for bed bugs. Most bed bugs (80%) are hiding on, in and around the bed. Small red or brown spots, or finding the bed bugs themselves is a sure sign. Check before brining any luggage into the room.
What to Look for When Traveling:
Picture Bed Bugs Fecal Stains on Mattress
Avoid purchasing used furniture, particularly if you live in a major city, since this is the surest way of spreading bed bugs from home to home. Bedbugs only move 20 feet at most from where they are transported, so if you have a bed bug problem, it either spread from an adjoining apartment, or you carried them into your living area yourself. It has nothing to do with cleanliness.
The first decision is to either take a do it yourself approach
or call in a professional when combating bedbugs Arizona based problems.
We always suggest using a professional as bed bugs are one of the most difficult insects to treat. Hiring an exterminator can be expensive with inspections costing from $50 to $500 (a bed bug sniffing dog is used on the high end), and approximately $900 a room for treatment. Methods such as heat remediation, where an entire home is heated to kill bed bugs can cost as much as $5000. If you live in an apartment, it is always best to write in a dated letter to the landlord or managing agent to request a bed bug inspection and treatment.
Given the high cost of using an exterminator, be sure to get multiple price quotes since each exterminator will have different methods and experience. Always request a guarantee since 2 to 3 treatments are often needed. We suggest starting with quotes from the exterminator network Home Advisor since they will provide up to 3 free quotes (phone 1.877.233.1145) and screen members to make sure they are locally licensed and insured.
Do it yourself treatment is a viable option in a single family home, particularly if you caught the problem early. If you are going to kill the bed bugs yourself, you must buy a kit, since this is the most economical approach to purchasing the multiple products needed.
A typical kit will include (all bed bug sprays mentioned below have been tested and can kill insecticide resistant bed bugs):
Popular kits which contain all natural products are available from Naturasil or consider this insecticide based bed bug kit.

HTC Sensation and the Grip of Death
That read a bit like the title of a Harry Potter book. Possibly appropriate given the dark mystery of the so-called "Death Grip" that a certain Steven Jobs has decreed infects every smartphone made, including, presumably, the HTC Sensation. So does it? As a tester, I thought I should leave no philosopher's stone unturned in an attempt to discover the truth.
Explain what's meant by the Death Grip?
In a highly publicised storm of criticism, Apple's current iPhone 4 model was accused of having an antenna design that could be detuned by the simple expedient of having your pinky bridge the gap between one antenna element and an adjacent one. This was make spectacularly easy due to Apple deciding to put the antennas on the outside of the phone for some reason, the resulting detuning causing data connection to fail and voice calls to be dropped. So it is said...
Regardless of your feelings regarding the veracity of that claim, or even of its importance, it's interesting to note that Apple offered free plastic/rubber/something-else-entirely 'bumpers' to prevent such gap bridging, while "protecting the device from damage should it fall". Or something like that.
During that storm of criticism, Apple took to releasing YouTube videos of a myriad (however many that is) of competitor handsets suffering signal loss by being held in the Death Grip. Their point being, presumably, that Apple's antenna woes were no worse than anybody else's.
So there's always a tacit expectation that each new smartphone will exhibit the Death Grip. And lose data connection, or drop calls.
Whither the HTC Sensation then?
Tradition requires that I don't tell you until the very end of the post, in a cunning scheme borrowed from books like the Potter series that leave the reveal until you've read all the bits that authors want you to. (Although it seems to have escaped the authors' attention that you can simply turn to the second to last page and save yourself a lot of reading, therefore foiling their cunning ruse, but I digress).
So I have to go through my methodology prior to revealing the results. Nope, I can't make an exception for you, much as I admire you all. It's a Bloggers Union thing.
You have a methodology? That's new...
In order to demonstrate the Death Grip in the way that it's intended, namely seeing data connections fail and or calls drop, the signal needs to be quite low. Fortunately I know of a truly awful cellular ghetto where I can perform such testing. It's known as my home.
Here, in the wilds of St Heliers, despite the best efforts of Telecom New Zealand and Vodafone, the topographical feature that represents my immediate neighbourhood virulently resists a half decent cell signal. This then makes it ideal for our purposes and at not inconsiderable risk to my health and safety (I suppose), I have completed extensive testing.
Well, what happened?
The Death Grip is kind of based on fact. The human animal is a large bag of salty water mostly, with some solid-ish bits scattered hither and yon. This saline construction isn't particularly helpful to the finely engineered antenna elements that are attempting to extract very high frequency electromagnetic radiation (cell signals) from the ether.
So it's certainly true that putting bits of you between the signal and the antenna is not helping. My testing confirms that in practice.
I compared two phones in the test, the HTC Sensation naturally, and the Galaxy S that I've been using for nine months now. This test didn't actually require two phones, but I thought you might be interested anyway. If I'm wrong, please don't leave a barrow-load of comments refuting that notion. I'll admit now that it was possibly a mistake.
The HTC Sensation
Prior to the Death Grip (Telecom XT): -71dBm (21 asu)
With the Death Grip: -99dBm (7 asu)
A drop of 28dBm
The Samsung Galaxy S
Prior to the Death Grip (Vodafone): -71dBm (21 asu)
With the Death Grip: -91dBm (11 asu)
A drop of 20dBm
Wow. That must've killed reception!
Oddly enough, it didn't. On either phone. But it certainly demonstrated that the saline-saturated filters that are our hands do indeed attenuate cell signals.
So how come the data and voice weren't interrupted given the OMG drops that resulted from my tests? One can only assume that a modern smartphone radio and its firmware are indeed spectacularly sensitive teams. Like Harry, Hermione and Ron. Okay, not really like them.
It seems to take more than the Death Grip to attenuate the signal so much that a call will drop, even in the admittedly signal-poor area where my home is, or the signal has to be so bad that the Death Grip will block practically all signal from reaching the antenna.
Is that it then?
No. I decided to put the Vodafone SIM in the HTC Sensation to see what happened there. The result follows...
The HTC Sensation
Prior to the Death Grip (Vodafone): -69dBm (22 asu)
With the Death Grip: -91dBm (11 asu)
A drop of 22dBm
It's apparent that the Death Grip effect is more pronounced on the HTC Sensation on both networks so the explanation isn't in the network itself. It would seem, to me at least, that the metallic construction of the Sensation is a likely contributor to the greater drop compared to the Galaxy S, which is encased in some kind of plastic.
But at the end of the test, neither phone had data interruption or suffered dropped calls, so the so-called Death Grip doesn't actually exist on these handsets. Which doesn't mean you couldn't build some Faraday cage-like apparatus to block the signals totally. Though why you'd wish to do that escapes me.
Suffice to say that in normal use, the HTC Sensation has a radio set that has sufficient sensitivity to keep you on the air even in signal-poor areas such as around my home.
And for the folk who have jumped straight to the end, Hermione and Hagrid have a baby together.
Coming up on our next exciting episode...
With any luck, the mythical video post will make its appearance. I hope...
About the author:
Andy (ArtooDetoo) may be a relative noob in comparison to his fellow HTC Sensation testers, being merely an "Ultimate Geek" in Geekzone, but it hasn't prevented him from commenting at length on numerous topics and forums, with a prolific presence in the Geekzone 'Android' area.
An advertising creative in his day job, he also possesses a passion for tech stuff - software and hardware - and besides having a number of gadgets to keep him interested, he also has a background in software development.
These attributes should at least give him the kind of analytical slant to temper opinion with reason. He and his fellow Telecom Ambassadors have already been hard at work testing and benchmarking so you'll get all the info without the effort. At least, that's the theory. Judge for yourselves.

It's common after an election for Americans to want to travel abroad. The election cycle is an arduous process. "Democracy is hard," as President Obama said yesterday. People are looking for a getaway. Some more long-term than others.
Trip Advisor just posted the top 20 post-election locations that people are booking flights and lodging to. Mexico and Canada sit neatly at the top of the list, followed by the UAE, the UK, and Italy.
But it's not just the cheaper flights and hotels that has people looking to roam. Amid anxiety about the reunification of an increasingly polarized super-state, people are looking for more perspective, for themselves and for their kids.
High school and college students are aware that getting away from home is one of the best ways to learn about the world and themselves. Most of our students sign on to our programs because of the sheer variety of countries and perspectives they're exposed to. (Others do it for the skills.)
The truth stands, however: travel is the best education.
Interested in doing an abroad program this spring?

Posted on 07/02/2013 3:37:57 AM PDT by iowamark
It's been drummed into the heads of Americans for going on a century: Getting a college education is the best way to ensure future career and financial success.
Couple that mantra with government-backed programs keeping student loan rates low and what do you get? The monster known as American college tuition, something that's grown well past the rate of inflation for more than five decades.
And it also has spawned a trillion-dollar student loan debt, much of which will never be repaid. The taxpayers will be left holding the bill, just like they were when the housing market went bust.
Because of the deep-held belief that Americans have about the value of a college education and de facto government backing, universities feel no marketplace pressure to rein in spending, force tenured faculty to actually teach or provide students with an education that will get them jobs.
But the glory days for the academic industry may be coming to an end...
The more the public gets the caveat emptor spirit when it comes to choosing a post-high school path for themselves or their children, the better the choices will become.
The free market has a way of creating healthy competition that way.
By any definition, there should be a lot more tuition price competition in the college market. The U.S. has more than 4,100 four- and two-year colleges... As long as the government makes sure loansno matter how expensivewill be available to just about any student, exactly what incentive do colleges have to lower tuition prices?
The result is that most Americans don't have as much choice when it comes to how much they spend on college as they do when it comes to homes, cars and food...
(Excerpt) Read more at cnbc.com ...
People have many choices in education. They can attend a community college for 2 years. Test out of classes that would result in not having to take certain classes, take classes on line. Go to a state school. Attend a university near home. WORK while attending classes to help pay for the classes. If you are going to attend college that will result in a huge debt, get a workable major. It is the choice of the student and his or her parents.
Rehab your first low-rent apartment building. Then become a developer like Donald Trump. (That property was in Cincinnati, by the way.)
You're right that people do have cheaper alternatives, but going to college online and testing out (via AP's) are no longer as viable options as they once were. Fewer and fewer colleges are accepting those credits.
The college monopoly is not going down without a fight.
it is not that simple. many colleges are behind the times. their majors no longer reflect current careers or technology yet they continue to peddle the same classes. they do not connect the dots from college education to career. then on the other side, companies are expecting specific degrees regardless of your experience. so what does the government do....it takes over the loan industry so it can make a profit no matter what in spite of record low interest rates. and book companies continue to make a killing while ripping off the authors and students alike. $300 for a text for a core general ed class? this is the worst racket going. someone has to break the stare but I cant imagine why anyone is motivated to do so. we need a revolution.
My only argument with this article is he's comparing stats from his 25 year reunion. Things were a lot different 25 years ago than they are today...as those with and without a degree can attest.
Older workers are not financially able to retire due to the recession, shrinking the job prospects for less experienced workers, technology has replaced jobs, outsourcing has sent jobs overseas, etc. Take the average high school class today and look down the road 25 years and you'll get an entirely different set of stats, and it won't be "pretty".
As to education costs, it is crazy the debt that is being incurred by kids at a relatively high interest rate. That being said, our 25 year old is so far ahead of where we were at his age due to degree, and grad school...my husband although making good money in a "trade" found out early on that his body would not last if he continued in that trade, so he went back to college after years in a trade. That degree served him well.
We encouraged "the kid" to just keep going forward in his education (not taking summers off) till he had an advanced degree., He lived at home, we have 5 colleges within a 35 mile radius so lots of opportunities. Tuition was paid for by scholarships, and working for the grad school as a TA.
So I do see the value of a college degree, just don't see the value of a college degree with a "fluff" major, which puts one thousands of dollars in debt to obtain, with no viable job options.
However, one caveat about a solid degree, I know engineering students from famous engineering schools who are working but the wage is low, and not moving up much, even with experience, due to the job situation. So even those with solid degrees can have problems in the economy.
Then they could get work and support themselves through college.
I don't know what the rush is to complete college in the first four years out of HS, anyway.
It is all a con... HS graduates are spoiled to think they absolutely deserve their college, party experience at no matter the cost or to whom!
Taxpayers are tired of footing the bill so they can prolong their incubation period of childhood and party at our expense.
HS grads need to be more responsible and mature...then they'd make much better college students, too.
You posted, in part: You're right that people do have cheaper alternatives, but going to college online and testing out (via AP's) are no longer as viable options as they once were. Fewer and fewer colleges are accepting those credits.
My son will finish his mechanical engineering degree in 3.5 years, due in large part to his AP credits. His course load has also been reduced somewhat. He is at a state school (pains me to say it is NC State, as my wife and I are both UNC grads).
Your textbook comments are so true. And then in order to keep the money flowing, they change editions every couple of years preventing students from buying used textbooks.
Our son's average textbook cost per term was between $500 and $1000, and he was buying all the "used" books he could.
Well if religious institutions have their tax exemptions revoked,Next on the list to lose tax exemption status should be University endowments.
"The taxpayers will be left holding the bill, just like they were when the housing market went bust."
These "bubbles" happens every time it's tried, and will continue, as long as politicians give preferential treatment to those least likely to fulfill their contractual obligations.
Join the National Guard and get free tuition at state colleges.
At least in our state.
Our deal with our kids is that we would pay the equivalent of a state school education. The rest was up to them.
We made the same deal with our daughter, who is attending an out-of-state university. She is making up the difference with a combination of scholarship money, a work-study job, and modest loans.
Yeah, not accepting AP credits is a trend that's spreading. Too many kids are doing colleges in 3.5 years and the colleges aren't willing to give up their piece of the pie. Here's Dartmouth's statement. Coming soon to a college near you.
Beginning with the entering Class of 2018, Dartmouth will no longer grant course credit for AP or IB examinations. Dartmouth will continue to offer exemptions and placement in some subject areas. This policy change will not take effect until the fall of 2014, and it will not impact current applicants to Dartmouth who intend to enroll in the fall of 2013.

Happy Birthday Emily!
Yesterday we had a family day and Justin and I sent the kids to a friends house for supper so we could have a nice supper and some alone time for our anniversary.
Today we didn't do much except school. Mercy insists on doing her lessons on Saturdays too.
I don't mind because I know there will come a point very soon when we'll have to slow way down or even take a break for a while so I'm letting her enjoy it while we can. Tomorrow is church for everyone but me and babies. We're stuck in bed. But I'm hoping to try out an online service.
Usually I'm the only one who cooks around here. Poor Justin can barely boil water without setting off the smoke alarm.
But since I've been on bed rest we've been living off of take out and the kindness of friends and neighbors who bring us casseroles.
A few days ago I managed to sleep in until 10:45!! I never ever do that. Usually the kids wake me up around 7. They totally don't get the concept of sleeping in on the weekends.

The Knox County Sheriff's Office says one man died in a single-vehicle crash on Pellissippi Parkway Wednesday evening.
Dennis Gowey, 64, of Powell died after driving a white van northbound on Pellissppi Parkway around 6 p.m. when it crossed over the median into the southbound lane, and hit trees on the side of the road.
The sheriff's office does not believe drugs, speed or alcohol were factors in the crash. The driver was wearing a seat belt.
Crews took Gowey's body to the Knox County Medical Examiner's Office.

With Ni No Kuni released tomorrow, I thought it is a good time from me harping on about the game and instead look at how other people have been harping on about Ni No Kuni!
One of the best RPGs I've played in years...a beautiful mixture of the traditional makings of a JRPG combined with gorgeous graphics, a wonderful story, a great cast of characters and thoughtful gameplay.
Score: 9.4
Computer and Video Games
Ni No Kuni is a miracle. Doused in character and constructed with depth, its first half hour is awe-inspiring yet the challenge can carry beyond the hundred hour mark.
Score: 9.3
Maybe all that beauty would be undermined by the low-key narrative if the combat wasn't as deep. It's why this collaboration between Level-5 and Studio Ghibli works. One without the other might have been good, but together they've created a superb role-playing game for this generation to savor.
Score: 4.5 Stars
It's a world where pretty fantasy archetypes clothe heartfelt domestic drama, and where outlandish cartoon creations sit at the heart of an engrossing game, infusing it with their exotic charm. Ni no Kuni wears its Studio Ghibli inheritance as lightly as Oliver does his little red magician's cloak, transporting us from one universe to another with the wave of a wand.
Score: 9 out of 10
I am sure you get the picture... its a great game and you should go and get it right now. Well tomorrow actually.

Video emerges of Kim Kardashian West jewelry robbers
NEW YORK (FOX 5 NY) - A French news station says it has obtained surveillance camera footage of the robbers who targeted Kim Kardashian West at gunpoint in Paris earlier this month.
TMZ.com shared the video on its website Thursday.
Three people on bicycles and two on foot are seen approaching the apartment complex at about 2:19 a.m. on October 3.
The suspects fled about 49 minutes later, according to M6 News.
One of the men on a bike is holding a backpack. Video of the suspects is blurry.
The suspects allegedly stole a jewelry box containing valuables worth $6.7 million as well as a ring worth $4.5 million.
They tied up Kardashian West and locked her in the bathroom before escaping.

Birthday BASH
We recently had the big 5 birthday party for my daughter, Gracie. It was a blast. We had ten 5 year olds running around like crazy. I think the highlight was when my husband let them throw water balloons at him and chase him around.
As you can tell by the picture, Gracie was a tiny bit excited about her big day!
I had a lot of fun making a special birthday cake for her. My mom always made awesome cakes from the Wilton cake pans and decorated them late into the night when we were asleep. We would wake up in the morning and our fabulous cake would be on the table next to our presents.
I showed Gracie the selection of cake pans and she chose the "Cool Cat" and wanted it pink like the picture too. I let her help me for a little bit before bed and then I realized the true reason my mom decorated the cakes late at night! About the time Maggie pulled up a stool and started licking the frosting off, we decided it was time for bed. I think it turned out pretty good though and thank goodness we have a picture to remember all that work we ate. :)
I can't believe that I have a 5 year old, but it sure is fun. It's amazing how much they learn and can comprehend already at such a young age. She has an amazing imagination. In fact, she gave me the idea for the next book I want to write just because I was listening to her talk. She is constantly playing and making up songs to sing to her dolls and stuffed animals.
I hope you all had a good mother's day yesterday. I love my girls so much and feel so lucky to have them. I am so happy that I can hear their little voices every day (more thankful when the voices are singing instead of whining, but ya know...)They are priceless!
Here's a pic of Maggie at Gracie's party. She came for the food.
And she was a pretty good sport for being only 2 1/2 and watching her sister unwrap all of those presents!
I hope this brought a smile to your face. I want to thank my mom and dad for making all of my birthdays special. I have so many great memories of all my awesome cakes and the other fun things we did. I love you guys!

Time-Of-Day Electricity Pricing
June 8, 2001
Energy experts say that electricity-supply problems aren't due to a long-term lack of generating capacity.
According to Henwood Energy Services Inc., of Sacramento, Calif., close to 100,000 megawatts of generating capacity are under construction and another 300,000 are in planning stages. Some plants won't be built. But if all of them were to be constructed -- and on schedule -- it would increase U.S. generating capacity 50 percent by 2004. That would be much more than is needed.
Experts say the real problems lie in consumption and transmission considerations.
Consumption could be rationalized by time-of-day pricing, they say.
- Most consumers don't know it, but the overnight price for electricity at wholesale can be practically zero.
- Utilities and other power producers are sometimes actually forced to pay industrial consumers to use electricity in the early-morning hours -- because it's too expensive to shut down power plants at night.
- With time-of-day pricing, consumers would be encouraged to alter their habits -- running the dishwasher at night, for example -- and pounce on such bargains, while evening out demand.
Also, prices for the transmission of electricity over long distances do not rise and fall based on demand. When everyone wants to use the same power lines to get electricity from some low-cost generating plant, congestion results.
Higher prices for congestion are encouraging entrepreneurs to build plants close to cities so as to take advantage of those higher prices. And experts say that is helping.
As always, the price mechanism -- when it is allowed to work -- evens out supply and demand.

CSV files can be loaded into Oracle database using SQL*Loader or, if you want to research a little bit further, using those files as "external tables".
I wouldn't know how to load a pure MS Excel (.xls) file into Oracle, but I *think* there was a topic on this forum earlier (if not on Oracle forum, try Applications and Tools forum) where this subject was discussed.

OR also you can use MS Access and "link" the csv, Excel and Oracle tables -- then apply SQL statements on these tables.

you are aware you have to click "file" then click "save as" and then click the "save as type" dropdown and select "CSV"? Otherwise you can "save as" and convert it to a text file or almost anything.- The_Duck
you can lead someone to something but they will never learn anything ...
