Pacific Ethanol explores potential sale of production assets
Pacific Ethanol Inc. has announced plans to strategically realign its business over the next six months, including the potential sale of production assets. The company has engaged Piper Jaffray to aid it in that sales effort.
Neil Koehler, president and CEO of Pacific Ethanol, made the announcement March 13 during an earnings call held to discuss fourth quarter 2018 financial results. In a press release issued the previous day, Koehler said that the company's fourth quarter financial performance was "negatively impacted by market conditions, regulatory uncertainty and trade disputes, which compressed production margins to record lows." While margins have improved during the first quarter, Koehler said further improvements are necessary in order to restore profitability. "In light of this and the fact that the intrinsic value of Pacific Ethanol's platform is not fully recognized by our public equity valuation, we have initiated a strategic realignment of our business to improve liquidity and reduce our debt," he said. However, Koehler did not discuss the specific assets Pacific Ethanol will consider selling.
Regarding production volumes, Koehler said Pacific Ethanol moderated production at some facilities during the third quarter in response to high inventory levels and lower margins. That practice continued through the fourth quarter he said. As a company, Koehler said Pacific Ethanol is running at approximately 85 percent operating capacity. The company currently owns nine ethanol plants with a combined capacity of more than 600 MMgy.
During the earnings call, Koehler confirmed that all Pacific Ethanol's plants are operating and operating very efficiently, with the exception of the Aurora East plant in Nebraska, which is currently idle. He said the Aurora East facility was shut down because its economics were marginal at the time. Idling the plant was part of the company's efforts to reduce overall production rates, he added, noting the plant can be brought back into production at any time.
Moving forward Koehler said Pacific Ethanol is confident that the compelling cost of octane and ethanol's carbon benefits will drive new domestic and export demand this year. He said the company expects both domestic and export demand to achieve new highs in 2019 as a result of increased E15 penetration and the easing of trade tensions.
Pacific Ethanol sold 209.4 million gallons of ethanol during the fourth quarter, down from 240 million gallons during the same period of 2017. Total production gallon sold fell to 131.1 million, down from 150.4 million during the same period of the previous year. Net sales were $334.4 million, compared to $395.3 million. Loss available to common stockholders was $32.3 million, or 74 cents per share, compared to $13.6 million, or 32 cents per share, during the fourth quarter of 2017. Adjusted EBITDA was negative $18 million, compared to $300,000 during the same period of 2017.
For the full year, net sales were $1.515 billion, down from $1.632 billion in 2017. Loss available to common stockholders was $61.5 million, or $1.42 per share, compared to $36.2 million, or 85 cents per share, in 2017. Adjusted EBITDA was negative $5.1 million, compared to a positive adjusted EBITDA of $13.6 million in 2017.

In the case of trans folk, the question is whether you're what society sees you as or what you see yourself as—see The Dispute Between Radical Feminism and Transgenderism. If what matters is your idea of yourself, then white men can only be called white men if they identify as white men.
As for Zionists, a game of Oppression Olympics is being played that no one can win. To the Students for Justice in Palestine, a Letter From an Angry Black Woman begins
The student organization Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) is prominent on many college campuses, preaching a mantra of "Freeing Palestine." It masquerades as though it were a civil rights group when it is not. Indeed, as an African-American, I am highly insulted that my people's legacy is being pilfered for such a repugnant agenda.She goes on to claim a number of black civil rights figures were Zionists—but she doesn't quote them, and doesn't note that many people supported Israel in the '50s and '60s before they learned more about the suffering of the Palestinians, and she wisely ignores Malcolm X.
The problem identitarians face with Zionism is simple: What are the identities of Palestinians and Zionists? Both have historical claims to having been oppressed. If you conclude that Zionist is a false identity, are you denying the validity of Israel, a state founded and controlled by Zionists?
Ah, well. Those are my current contenders for the issues that will ultimately cause identitarianism to go the way of Manifest Destiny. But I realize I'm hoping for logic to matter more than it does.

That's Pretty Neat #1: "Pilot"
I'll be honest, I browse the internet… A LOT.  I also enjoy video games (which may explain why I write for a gaming website), so there are dozens of times I'll run across something interesting that makes me think one thing:  "Huh… that's pretty neat.â€
So here I am, with a ludicrously awesome proposal; I'll compile all of this neat stuff on a weekly basis and show it off in one smorgasbord of neatness, specifically for all those lovers of neat video game stuff.  And there's pretty much no backing down, now.  I already put a "#1†by the title and creatively named it "Pilot" (I know it's not a television show, shut up), so if I don't continue posting these I'm going to look like a real jerk.  Hope you guys think this stuff is… uh, what's the word…
On a Scale of 1-10, His Scaling is a 10
Assassin's Creed is infamous for giving the protagonist incredible skill at climbing walls.  That's not really realistic though – nobody would ever actually scale a building, would they?
Well, reddit user liamdroid proved us all very wrong with his post in which he stated "I found this guy climbing my work building today.â€
Sorry Hitchcock, This is the BEST Psycho
I talked about this Borderlands 2 short film that delves into Krieg's love life the other day, but I just can't get over how awesome it is.  It's no surprise, I can sort of relate to the whole 'misunderstood guy who can't get an attractive girl' thing.  Though to be fair, I'm probably slightly less awkward around girls than Krieg.
Only slightly.
What is Columbia, If Not Another LEGO Set for Another Time?
This flickr user, Cool Whip, is a pretty awesome guy. Â Not only was he able to secure that sweet and delicious username, but he also constructed a LEGO version of the city of Columbia from BioShock Infinite. Â It comes complete with Booker DeWitt, a Handyman, some Comstock propaganda, and a mobilized patriot.
Not Included; interdimensional tears.
Even GLaDOS Would Be Proud of This Living Chamber
If you've ever wanted to live like a Test Subject, have I got a treat for you.  This Portal-themed room, designed from scratch by an accountant-by-day, nerd-by-night gal named Lauren, is ridiculous.  And I want to sleep there.  Preferably without GLaDOS, though.
You can check out her full website on the project here, and look at a few neat pictures below.
Humble Your Bundle
Who can ever forget the lovable wizards at humblebundle.com?  Aside from having their eighth true Humble Bundle (which includes *deep breath* Little Inferno, Awesomenauts, Capsized, Thomas Was Alone, Dear Esther, Hotline Miami, and Proteus for a price that you determine), they've also paired up with Telltale Games to give us… well, you can go check out the deal for yourself.  I'm sick of switching between tabs to look at all the games available.
I guess that's really all the neat stuff I could find.  But, in all honesty, what were you expecting for a pilot?  I can't just sit at my computer all day and find interesting stuff for you to look at, I have a life…
Okay, you called my bluff.  I don't.

"Would this copy of Star Wars: Episode IV change your mind?"
- The Hunt For Mr. Dyer's TreasureDyer is the hot-headed co star of the Extreme Series.
Overview Edit
Appearance Edit
Dyer is a tall, portly man with brown-blond hair of varying lengths. He wears a green buttoned shirt and a torn brown jacket. He initially wielded a broken sword, though he later replaced it with a "real sword".
Personality Edit
Dyer is aggressive, competitive, and clever. He often uses underhanded and unfair techniques in order to win his conflicts with Kawecki, who is his mortal enemy. He is somewhat adept at marksmanship, though he can become overtly excited from this and lose almost all sense of reason.
His cameo in the Firestarter review suggests that he is at least minority perverted.
Biography Edit
The Extreme Series Edit
In Extreme Chess, Dyer runs into Kawecki and challenges him to fight in "The most holy battleground", which turns out to be chess. After a series of moves, Kawecki punches Dyer in the face in order to avoid losing.
In Extreme Snowball-Fighting the same thing happens, only this time Dyer challenges Kawecki to fight on a different "Most holy battleground", a snow covered field. Eventually, Kawecki starts preparing his "finishing move, which gives Dyer ample time to go inside the nearby cabin and lock him out.
Dyer eventually has trouble coming up with ideas for places to battle. After some deep thought, both him and Kawecki agree on golf, later changing it to Extreme Minigolf. Dyer loses this competition and is transformed into a banna cream pie.
At the start of Extreme Barbecuing, the restored Dyer is the target of a failed surprise attack by Kawecki. This time, Kawecki comes up with the idea by himself, an extreme barbecuing competition. Due to Dyer's vegetarianism, he is permitted to barbecue a salad. Both competitors lose when it comes to light that they were using somebody else's barbecue. The winner of the competition was determined to be Rock, whom Dyer gleefully supported.
Puppy Hour and sketches Edit
Dyer was integral in the Puppy Hour revolution that resulted in the death of Mr. Dyer and the liberation of Dyercentral. He confronted Mr. Dyer in his office attempting to assassinate him for selling out the channel. However, Mr. Dyer manages to subdue him with invisible lightning. This conflict allowed a team consisting of The Meddler, Brain Surgeon, and Chadwick Jones to take Mr. Dyer by surprise and use their combined powers to stop him. The now recovered Dyer used his sword to deliver the final blow to Mr. Dyer, killing him. Afterwords, he was briefly the new CEO of the channel, before relinquishing the power to Chadwick Jones.
Dyer had a small part in the "It's a Wonderful Life" parodies of first two Dyercentral Christmas Specials. In "It's an Insignificant Life", he was seen battling Kawecki with a mop. In the second, he appeared in "It's a wonderful Life, Socko", where he insults Socko for greeting him. It is a misconception that he was one of the stars in the main story of the first Christmas Special. The Character thought to be him is also a vegetarian and shares the name Dyer, but wears a very different costume and wields a battleaxe instead of a sword. This was confirmed in the final Dyercentral Christmas Special, where the Christmas version of Don Maccaroni referred to him and the others in the group as "A group of generic assholes".
Chadwick Jones Presents Edit
Dyer was featured in the opening credits of Chadwick Jones Presents Season 1, where he walks through the door and looks around angrily.
He is also featured in the opening of Season 2, but this time he also had a few cameo appearances in the reviews themselves. This included The Point review where he witnessed Don's execution of Sheriff Lyoid, and the Firestarter review where he pointed out that character John Rainbird may have pedophilic motives.
He also teamed up with Old Man Dyer and Hengry Hippiee in Episode 8 of the Dragon Ball Lookback in order to defend themselves from the Panther invasion. Whilst Hippiee and OMD were somewhat useless in battle, Dyer went in heavy and strong, stealing a gin from one of the Panther soldiers and using it to take out a few that were trying to steal from the house. However, his overconfidence and bloodlust proved to be his downfall. When he ran up to another group of Panthers whilst firing into the air, he accidentally used up all his bullets before getting to hit anyone. Luckily, all the bullets soon came crashing down again, killing the Panther's nearby. As Dyer turned around to brag about this, a final bullet came back and hit him in the head. It is currently unknown if the wound is fatal.
Other Appearances Edit
Chadwick Jones Presents: Barney's Great Adventure Edit
Dyer had a brief non-cannon appearance in the Barney's Great Adventure review, where he was gunned down by Meridale in the "Puppy Love" trailer.
Chadwick Jones Presents: Snowbeast Edit
The Mist version of Dyer had a small cameo in the Snowbeast review. He was called in to explain how one could survive a Snowbeast attack, but was forced to leave prematurely because of an Extreme Needlepoint match. The Mist Mr. Dyer's Executor later announced that he had died during the match, losing it in the process.
Powers and Abilities Edit
Swordsmanship Edit
Dyer is able to wield and use a sword to defeat his enemies. He has used this to inflict harm on Kawecki on limited occasions, and famously used it to deal the finishing blow to Mr. Dyer, killing him.
Marksmanship Edit
In Episode 8 of the Dragon ball Lookback, Dyer stole a machine gun from one of the Panther troops and was easily and effectively able to slaughter a small group of them. Though his aim seems fine, he foolishly fired the entirety of his only clip into the air.
Ki Flight Edit
In Episode 6 of the Lookback, Dyer demonstrated his ability to use ki energy to float in the air for a limited time. This maneuver appears to be very difficult, as a minor lapse in concentration caused him to spin out of control and injure himself.
Miscellaneous Edit
Dyer's chess playing skills are extraordinary, as he able to perform moves that seem physically impossible. This includes granting the power of light to a piece, freezing a knight in gelatin, and giving a bishop a handgun. He is also skilled in snow fort building and minigolf.

Despite the fact that oceans cover more than 70 percent of the planet's surface, the marine life within them is not infinite. Humanity's ever-increasing desire for seafood has had catastrophic results. The health of the planet's oceans is directly connected to humanity's health and welfare. It also directly affects access to food for people from all economic levels. It influences economic development and impacts our ability to get nutritious and delicious meals.
At one point in history, it appeared that there were no limits on what the oceans could provide; however, discoveries in recent decades have shown us differently. Many of the world's fisheries are overexploited and are on the brink of collapse, while others have already collapsed. The ramifications of this go far beyond being able to get your favorite type of fish; overfished fisheries affect the health of the whole planet.
Simply put, seafood sustainability involves meeting the present need for seafood without compromising the ability to meet future needs. It is important to remember that when we eat seafood, we have an irreversible effect on the environment; therefore, it is important that we make the right decisions.
The Importance of Aquaculture for Seafood Sustainability
Fish farms play a major role in the solution to overfishing as they produce half of the world's seafood; however, not all fish farms are good for the environment. Truly sustainable fish farming operations will take steps to reduce their impact on the ecosystem. Unsustainable fish farms can cause environmental damage like pollution and disease or damage to coastal ecosystems.
How to Tell Which Seafood in the Supermarket is Sustainable
Pay attention to the labeling. Labeling has improved in recent years and helps shoppers to make smarter choices. Labels may show where the seafood is from and whether it was farm-raised or wild-caught. Some labels may even show how the seafood was harvested. In addition, your fish seller may have information on the origin of the fish as well as its quality and the methods used to harvest it.
Finding Sustainable Seafood in Restaurants
This starts with choosing the right chef. Many chefs and restaurants are committed to keeping endangered species off their menus. In many cases, they are also committed to serving locally available seafood. Additionally, there are local and national pocket guides as well as smartphone apps like Seafood Watch and Safe Seafood that provide information on seafood sustainability.
Indigenous is committed to serving carefully sourced local, sustainable and seasonal ingredients to give guests a unique and conscious dining experience. Stop in today and discover how local, sustainable ingredients are also delicious!

On the second day of the seventh week of the European League of Legends Championship Series (EU LCS), Misfits played against its former sister team, sold and rebranded as the Mysterious Monkeys. Following Misfits' win, AD carry Steven "Hans Sama" Liv spoke with Slingshot's Kelsey Moser about Kalista, Misfits' top side focus, and all-in compositions.
Kelsey Moser: You guys put a lot of priority on the Kalista in the first game, and they ended up picking Tristana. Some say this matchup is even or a bit tricky. Can you talk about some of the thought process that went into the Kalista first pick?
Steven "Hans Sama" Liv: It's been really recently that we decided to prioritize Kalista because she has really good early pressure, especially when both teams have melee support (when they have supports like Braum). It has really good engages like Ashe/Varus, but it gives more pressure to enemy and has a good mid game, but falls off in late game.
For this game, they picked Tristana-Braum. I don't really think it's a good pick to punish Kalista or Rakan, but yeah. We did have a better draft than them and easy comp, so we won the game.
KM: I noticed in both games, it seemed like you guys had a really good idea in the 2-v-2 of when you could go in and get a kill. Either what mistakes did they make or what other factors allowed you guys to know you could execute?
SL: So, I think with the lead we had in bot lane 2-v-2, we could snowball the lead for the other lanes, and the objective we put — we really played good in the objective and had full vision control. Obviously on Kalista, this champion is strong at this moment, so we engage really easily, and we have Rakan, so we have easy engage. Yeah, it was easy to pull off this.
KM: You guys have been playing more and more around getting priority on bot and trying to impact mid lane. For example, last week against Unicorns, you had some trouble when they picked Vladimir. It can sometimes be hard to do this kind of play. When you have bot priority, how do you decide what kind of play you can make?
SL: Most of the case, depending on mid priority too and TP advantages, when we get the bot priority, we will use it for wards around mid — or deep wards in the jungle if we have already river vision set up. And we try to snowball the lead by getting pressure at mid, then diving bot if it's possible. Or diving mid or killing objective like dragon, or even swapping with tempo.
KM: In first game, you put a lot of priority on keeping top pushed out. Even after you got first turret, you kept sending duo lane top and pushing to Tier 2 like this. Why did you continue prioritizing this lane over maybe going mid or bot?
SL: Our lead on 2-v-2 was really huge, so we push out the wave at first (not the first, first, but we push it, and we get river vision). Then we will push it again until we get the turret, then we get deeper vision. Then if there's a play available mid, we will take it, and we take full vision, we eventually buy three pink wards to play our vision in river. So they need to face check us if we do Nashor or something. Kalista is really good for Baron control. It's bigger than a smite, so it's really fast, so we use that impact.
KM: You have really changed up to focus on playing these all-in engage comps this series as opposed to earlier in the split when you were trying some different things. Was it just the patch change or a combination of factors?
SL: I think it would be more like our signature. We are really good playing those comps. We are not really used to — we are used to, but it's not like our success with other comps. So we play engage comps most of the time, and we are going to train other comps of course.
KM: Sometimes it still feels like your jungle is prioritizing top a lot, and you guys are relied upon to handle bot side. Do you feel there is sometimes an issue with translating leads from top to bot or vice versa, or is this just how you have decided to play?
SL: We prioritize top because maybe if we try a gank at bot, we would risk a lot on top side. Like they would invade our jungle and take our camp — if the bot gank doesn't work out, like they live with 200 HP, it's not really worth it for the top side and jungle. But sometimes if we have a really snowbally comp at bot and a really good lane top, really depends. Our play style is mostly playing around top.
KM: You had two tank picks for top and jungle, so for them it might be difficult to get a kill. Do you think it's still worth it for jungle to exert pressure top then?
SL: When we have tank, we will play the game more slowly. I think with jungle Sejuani, Gragas would play the game more slowly. We wouldn't really path to top. He would clear out his jungle, not really force too much things. Yeah, that's how we play, not put a lot of pressure at top, just deny them from making plays early.
KM: Monkeys especially like to play Jayce or Renekton. Do you think that those types of picks are not as good because of some of the tank item changes, or did it just not work out for them this series?
SL: I think it's good enough, but I am not sure if they are used to playing with this comp, and we are really used to playing with engage comps, so we always pull the trigger when they come to us. And we had a really good lead bot, so it's really difficult for them to snowball their lead with Jayce.
KM: Your team on Twitter was building up a bit of a rivalry with Mysterious Monkeys, talking back against Amazing a little bit. Do you have anything you'd want to say to them after this series?
SL: Not particularly. I don't really know Amazing or Kikis. I really know a lot their bot lane. When we were in Challenger Series two splits ago, we were friendly really much. It feels good to play against them, and I hope they do their best in LCS.
KM: If Monkeys end up having to play Promotion, do you think they will be safe in LCS?
SL: I think they have a good level. I think they will perform well if they keep working hard as they do.

A Malaysian man is to be executed after he was found guilty of murdering two British medical students on placement in Borneo.
Newcastle University students Aidan Brunger, of Kent, and Neil Dalton, of Ambergate, in Derbyshire, were killed in August last year by a young fishmonger who, prosecutors said, had told friends he wanted to "test his strength" against foreigners.
Zulkipli Abdullah, 24, denied stabbing the students to death but admitted getting involved in a streetfight with them and two other men outside a bar. He is now expected to be hanged – the mandatory punishment for murder in Malaysia.
The families of the two victims issued a joint statement saying they were "pleased" with the guilty verdict, but added that it would not bring the two men back.
"Our sons would soon have qualified as doctors," said the victims' parents Phil and Jan Dalton and Paul Brunger and Sue Hidson.
"Their unprovoked and senseless murders as they were walking home after a night out with other medical students mean that Aidan and Neil will never have the chance to spend their lives caring for and helping others.
"They would have given so much to the world. We are so very proud of both of them and in what they achieved in their all too short lives."
Both aged 22 when they were killed, the victims had been working at a local hospital in Kuching, a popular backpacking destination.
They were stabbed and killed after an incident in a bistro or cafe in the early hours of the morning, an inquest into their deaths heard last year. Their fathers positively identified their sons' remains when they were flown back to the UK.
The families' British lawyer Kieran Mitchell, from Slater and Gordon, called the attack "savage and unprovoked" and said Mr Brunger and Mr Dalton had "travelled to Borneo with the sole aim of using their medical skills to help people".
"Since that day the families have put their faith in the Borneo justice system, which is very different to our own, adding further strain and difficulty during this devastating ordeal," Mr Mitchell said. "After a long and complicated trial they are relieved that justice has been done."

by Dion Todd in General Questions about closed - report
Why do you use the WEB version of the Bible?
Why do you use the World English Bible in your devotional and teachings instead of the ESV, NKJV, AMP or another modern translation?
by Dion Todd about Best answer
Why do you use the World English Bible (WEB)?
In our Bible study, I record the Bible to audio for those that have trouble reading the Bible, or are visually impaired, or so that you can listen to it while on the go. For over three months, I tried to get permission to use a Bible translation for this project and it became a lot of legalistic drama. I am sad to say that men have taken the word of God and are now selling the rights to even quote it.
To sum it up, we cannot legally use the ESV, NIV, AMP, NKJV or any modern English translation without paying lots of money, if at all. From what I can gather, the NKJV (Zondervan) wants $10,000 up front and $10 per copy distributed. The ESV and others will not respond to our permission requests, though it is required. (The ESV finally did respond after three months but their requirements were too restrictive and therefore unacceptable.) I do not want to use Old English text to try and reach today's youth, so we need a translation that is modern English, but free to use as we need. After prayer, I came across a project that was created just because of this copyright problem.
The World English Bible (WEB) http://ebible.org/web/webfaq.htm. The World English Bible translation is based on the ASV (1901) and was created because there are no modern English Bible translations that you can freely use without copyright entanglement. The WEB was created copyright free and is in the public domain from the start. You can use it all that you want, include the entire Bible on your website, record it to audio and use it for derivative works with absolutely no restrictions, and you do not have to get permission from anyone to do so.
We want to freely share the word of God around the world and we need to use a Bible translation that allows us to do that. This is so much more what Jesus envisioned when He told us to spread the Gospel, freely you have received, freely give. In my studies and personal reading each morning, I still use the ESV, AMP, NKJV, and NIV along with a Strong's concordance and Tyndale's commentary because I can use that at home personally, and legally. I just cannot share it on the web, but we are an online ministry so that creates a problem. So for our audio recordings, for our devotionals and teachings, I will be using the WEB translation.
Please note that you can and should, read your own Bible and do what it says to do, so this does not change your translation. So far in my reading, I have found the ESV and the WEB very similar in translation but free from the legal issues.
For an indepth teaching on Bible translations, please read this teaching that I put together: Bible Translations

What I'm reading currently:
Kraig's Modern Magick
Cicero(s)' Self-Initiation...
Lesser Banishing Pentagram Ritual (LBRP)
I have got this one memorized and I do this anywhere between 2 to 5 times a day. I have been told this is quite alot at my level of experience but it feels right to me and my situation so I will continue in this manner. I cant coordinate the vibrations, the sharp motions, my arms or my feet but I keep trying. It felt awkward, at first and still does, but I am so determined to learn all of the basics that I can see past the clumsiness. I guess POS was correct in that regard, I am quite "tenacious".
As for his comment on my efforts to doing the Work GD style, I am, but not within the support group of a lodge. I have taken on the daunting task (so I'm told) of trying to perform the Self-Initiation with some guidance of more experienced folks. I am currently gathering up the necessary materials I need for the Self-Initiation.
So therein lies my intentions of starting this blog, in a sea of more seasoned ceremonial magicians, I would appreciate any input that readers may have. I may be opening myself to being shred to pieces, but hell, I didnt sign up for this for the bandaids and the lollipops.
As for my commitment to GD in general, a VERY WISE and RESPECTED man told me to try GD at least for a season. I'm still torn on whether that means a "season of my life" or just 3 months. Time and my tenacity will tell...

Thank you Simon! I have definitely had more than my fair share of failures though. Failures can either can either drive you insane, cause you to overcompensate or inspire one to learn from them. I really hope I'm in the latter category. Thanks for the smile! :)

Choosing Wisely is a unique health resource that performs an important role in preventing unnecessary medical treatment and testing. This website makes recommendations about which tests and treatments can be avoided to save money, and is highly recommended for patients who want to learn about and discuss these options with their healthcare provider.
Review Date: 8/10/2018
Five tabs on the site's navigation bar organizes content nicely. Lots of downloadable .pdf publications allow users to take information on the go. The site's search bar isn't very helpful, requiring substantial browsing without the use of the filters. Otherwise, the website is easy to use.
Clean, modern visual design does away with advertisements and prioritizes useful content for readers. Pastel color scheme is playful and comforting, and images — when present — are professional. Content pages are text-heavy and missing images, but each page features a downloadable publication that is designed much more pleasantly.
The recommendations made on Choose Wisely are the result of collaborative efforts between many respected groups like Consumer Reports, American Urological Association, North American Spine Society, and dozens more. Information here is based on extensive references, but patient topics are not referenced.
Individual authors and editors are not identified, but expert panels from reputable organizations are responsible for the site's recommendations. New content is added whenever available, and downloadable publications all feature a date that is recent within the last two years. The topics covered are identified by the individual organizations as important issues within their speciality.

Spica Technology offers a customised N50 Retrofit solution to extend the life span of ageing Nordex N50 800kW wind turbines. The N50 Retrofit solution is the Spica Retrofit Controller with Spica Control System integrated in a special designed nacelle panel fitted for the Nordex N50 nacelle. The solution comes with Spica HMI Dual Display for easy operation and Spica Smart Park for turbine monitoring and data collection to optimise maintenance and reduce breakdowns.
The Spica Retrofit Controller in the N50 Retrofit solution is based on advanced technology and comparable to control systems in modern wind turbines.
With the N50 Retrofit Nacelle Panel, we replace your old turbine control system with an up-to-date control system that provides you with valuable data which you can access remote through Spica Smart Park.
This extensive data collection makes it possible to monitor the turbine closely and predict maintenance in order to prevent costly breakdowns.
With the N50 Retrofit Nacelle Panel with Spica Retrofit Controller inside, you gain:
- increased in- and output e.g. condition monitoring, level monitor, oil analyzer etc.
Furthermore, we offer a 3-year exchange guarantee in case of serious malfunction.
The N50 Retrofit solution comes with Spica HMI Dual Display that displays the operational status of the turbine. The dual display is a control panel that has the same structure as a TAC controller which makes it easy to operate.
With two displays available enables you to access and navigate two independent menus at the same time e.g. to change parameters on one display and follow how your turbine reacts on the second display.
Spica HMI Dual Display is designed for harsh climate conditions, long lifetime and high durability. It can be operated easily with gloves over wide temperature ranges and is not sensitive to neither dust nor oil which makes it perfect and user-friendly for the service technician.
The dual display can either be fixed mounted to the solution or used as a portable display to be easily switched to the control system in tower or nacelle.
The several features give an improved overview, ease troubleshooting and reduce time needed during service to make turbine maintenance more effective.
The installation process of the N50 Retrofit Nacelle Panel in a Nordex N50 turbine is typically conducted in 4 days. The following video is a 2 minutes timelapse of an installation process conducted in the summer 2019 in a Nordex N50 wind turbine in Ildved, Denmark. A N50 retrofit project carried out for the Danish energy company SA Energi I/S:
Read the casestory of some of the first N50 turbines retrofitted for SA Energi I/S during the spring 2018.
"We are more than satisfied with the service from Spica Technology and the new control system in our 5 Nordex N50 turbines. The turbines are now reliable which makes them much more pleasant to service. Furthermore, our troubleshooting is much easier than ever before," says SA Energi.
Are you considering whether the N50 Retrofit Nacelle Panel with Spica Control System could be the solution for your Nordex N50 turbine? Don't hesitate to contact our wind turbine specialists to discuss your turbines challenges or download our sales flyer about our wind turbine retrofit control systems.

Is it True that Celery Contains Negative Calories?
Many dieters are seeking the truth to this rumor. Before giving a true reply, let's understand some concepts that you need to know to better justify the answer. So, let's start by knowing about negative calories first.
Negative Calories: How Useful they Are?
This is the term that is associated with a few eatables that are believed to shed off more calories after consumption. The underlying idea is that chewing and digesting these foods requires more calories than what they offer to the body. As a result, a calorie deficit is being created, which surely leads to weight loss. So, it is actually this effect that is named as negative calories.
Celery's Association with Negative Calories
As per the U.S. Department of Agriculture, a celery stalk that is only 8-inch long possesses six calories only. Such a stalk contains over 95% of water, while the remaining content is of sugars, carbohydrates, and a few vital nutrients, such as vitamin K, vitamin C, dietary fiber, and potassium.
Because celery has only six calories to offer, theoretically, your body exhausts more energy while digesting the item. According to MayoClinic.com, around 10% of the energy is spent by your body daily in digesting the food and absorbing the vital nutrients.
Although there are several other fruits and vegetables such as cauliflower and berries, which are termed as negative calories; celery is noticeably superior because of its fiber that is very tough to digest. However, there is no study to indicate the number of negative calories celery offers.
Celery and Weight Loss
Although celery is among the famous foods having negative calories, touting it to be a big role player for weight loss is a grave idiocy. This is because just having celery in your weight loss diet is certainly not going to result in any significant weight loss despite the fact that the negative calorie effect is a realistic one for losing weight.
Truly speaking, to shed one pound of fat, a deficit of 3,500 calories is required. Keeping this in mind, it can be concluded that one would require to consume over a hundred celery stalks for losing only one pound.
At the most, the deficit offered by a stalk is just some dozen calories. So, some consuming a few stalks a day is not going to make a big difference in your weight loss regimen.
Benefits of Celery for Weight Loss
Despite the above facts, eating more celery can contribute to weight loss. However, do not top it with creams and fatty dips, or else, the benefits will be converted into losses. At the same time, you should be aware of the fact that celery is also low in minerals as well as vitamins; which means you should not rely only on it for losing weight.
Therefore, the American Council on Exercise recommends having spinach, grapefruit, blueberries, oranges, artichokes, and watermelons for losing extra pounds. And yes, always stick to the suggested lifestyle changes, such as exercising and healthy diet.

Valsartan Recall May Affect Up to 2 Million Patients
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently issued a recall for medications containing...READ MORE
In a recent bulletin from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the manufacturers of certain high blood pressure, heart failure and post heart attack medications were ordered to recall some of the medicines they were producing in China because of a contamination found in the manufacturing process that produces a known probable human carcinogen. Why did it take an FDA recall to force these manufacturers to take action? Shouldn't the pharmaceutical companies, who were aware of the contamination, have already taken steps to protect the American public from a potentially dangerous toxin?
On July 13, 2018, the FDA disclosed that Valsartan, the active ingredient used in some heart medications that were produced in a Chinese factory, had been contaminated with nitrosodimethylamine, known as NDMA. NDMA has been declared a probable carcinogen by the FDA and is known to scar the liver and cause liver tumors in rats. Pharmaceutical companies, including Major Pharmaceuticals, Solco Healthcare, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries and others, contracted with a Chinese company to manufacture their heart medicines. During the manufacturing process of Valsartan, it became contaminated with NDMA. Twenty-two other countries besides the United States have also issued recalls of tainted Valsartan-containing heart medications manufactured in Chinese factories.
While it is important to note that not all heart medicines containing Valsartan are contaminated with NDMA, Americans needing these medicines should check with their physicians to see if the Valsartan in their prescription is affected. Look at the label on the bottle for one of the manufacturers listed in the FDA recall or talk to your pharmacist. There are safe alternatives, and patients should continue to take their medication and see their doctors as soon as possible to determine if they should be switched to a suitable substitute.
Meanwhile, if your heart medicine does contain tainted Valsartan, Dr. Erin Michos, associate director of preventive cardiology at Johns Hopkins Medicine, says your risk of getting cancer is directly related to how much of the medicine you've taken. NDMA is an organic chemical used in the manufacture of some liquid rocket fuels, softeners and lubricants. It can also be a byproduct of pesticide manufacturing, fish processing and in the making of rubber tires, according to an August 28 article published by CNN's online health magazine. The more of the contaminant you've ingested, the greater your risk of complications.
Baron & Budd is committed to protecting the public from unscrupulous drug manufacturers who fail to properly test their products or warn patients and physicians about toxic contamination and other issues. If you took a drug containing tainted Valsartan, Baron & Budd may be able to help. contact us online or call 866-723-1890 to learn more.

"Drawn to Creating: A Survey of Contemporary Drawing"
Lore Degenstein Gallery Susquehanna University, 514 University Ave, Selinsgrove, Pennsylvania 17870
"Drawn to Creating: A Survey of Contemporary Drawing" is an exhibition seeking to show, as much as a single exhibition can, the depth of what is happening in the current discipline of drawing. Considering work from the most academic to the most experimental, and from the formal to the conceptual, it presents drawing as an independent and expanding discipline. Artist-curator Nick Reszetar has chosen the ten artists and their work for the exhibition from his own research into, and love of, drawing. He will give a gallery talk at the opening reception to discuss the depth of the work. The exhibition will run through May 17.
Price: Admission is free and open to the public.
