Abstract | A key aspect of catalyst-substrate interactions is the accessibility of catalysts to the chemical bonds with which they are designed to react. We aim to engineer biomass variants with altered lignin and polysaccharide compositions, or to incorporate catalysts, co-catalysts, or functionalized catalytic sites into cell walls as the plant grows, simplifying reaction steps in subsequent processing and alleviating the biphasic barrier between the catalyst in solution and the solid polymeric biomass. By tailoring biomass for catalytic and hydropyrolytic conversion pathways, we aim to reduce energy inputs and maximize recovery of desired reaction products. |

Permitting for a New Candy-Making Facility
Oakdale, California, USA
Client | Sconza Candy Company |
Industries | Manufacturing |
Services | Air Quality, M&A & Due Diligence Consulting |
Golder assisted the Sconza Candy Company of Oakland, California with air quality due diligence services in their search for a new manufacturing location in Oregon or California. Five different sites and regulatory environments were evaluated over several years. When Sconza ultimately decided to purchase the Hershey Chocolate Factory in Oakdale, California, Golder assisted with strategic planning regarding the design and installation of emission controls and air quality permitting, which is especially stringent in the San Joaquin Valley because it is non-attainment for several air pollutants.
Our Role
Golder prepared the air quality permit applications and negotiated the issuance of new authority to construct permits for Sconza's new candy-making operation. We prepared the design of the air pollution control systems for controlling volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from candy polishing as well as particulate matter from the receiving and transfer of bulk granulated sugar. The capture design for VOCs was by means of permanent total enclosures (PTEs), which can be assumed to achieve 100% capture efficiency if the design and performance meets certain criteria. Golder assisted with emission device procurement and construction inspection, and managed the compliance testing of the highly efficient 3-chamber regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO), which was chosen to control VOCs. In addition, Golder performed the PTE verification test and is assisting Sconza with ongoing air quality compliance methods.

Globally, Golder has one of the largest and most diverse Air Quality and Acoustics, Noise & Vibration consulting groups servicing a wide...

All that monkeying around has finally caught up with Justin Bieber (literally) after officials in Germany confiscated his monkey because Biebs didn't have the proper paperwork.
Bieber arrived at the Munich airport on Thursday and was confronted about the monkey when he went through customs. Since Bieber didn't have the proper documentation for the monkey (and you know how Germans about having your papers in order) they took the monkey into quarantine.
It appears the monkey was a recent gift from record producer Mally Mall, who tweeted the above photo earlier in the week with a caption, "OG MALLY FIRST PIC WITH HIS POPS @JUSTINBIEBER."
Bieber's track record with pets isn't so great -- he gave away his hamster to a random fan last December and the little guy passed away earlier this month.
Thank God the monkey is in better hands now. Justin probably would spit on this poor monkey too.
I hope the monkey stays in Germany at a zoo in capable hands instead of that little freak douche bag. He is disgusting. Poor monkey.
He's going to have a hard time keeping that monkey up his rectum, compared to the gerbil he has there.
umm, TMZ. hamsters don't have a very long life span to begin with, no need to over exaggerate.. lol, and i'm sorry, who wouldn't want a cute monkey like that? Oh, it's cause Justin Bieber has one, and the low lifes who hate him on here need another excuse to hate on him. I find it quite funny actually, how people amuse themselves with hating someone they don't even know!!
Justin's Mother acts as clueless as him. She or someone needs to get a handle on this situation. Far too much money/ yes people are around him.

Fun and slightly addicting! Well balanced strategy game. It has plenty of in app upgrades to change the dynamic based on the user's preference. It requires fairly good strategy but you can get weapons and upgrades fluidly as you play rather than having to buy game credits to progress. Good variety of level layout.
Great, but some minor numbers improvements I notice that the factories tend to produce 5 or 6 when properly buffed, but when you upgrade them they still only gained 10. I also notice that tank the damage seemed a little underpowered for being a tank item, & I tend to use just machine guns and flamethrowers most of the time. Great very fun games, but it could be even better
Great concept for monetizing The Easy level is as hard as as you'll never get along by yourself, unless you buy alloys and precious stones from the market. Obvious cheap maniuplating .. uninstalled
Great game But when I replay any level I only get one machine gun and even the level of upgrades I have unlocked for the machine gun does not come in the previous levels so please fix that a and can u increase the amount of gold I get in every stage
Excellent game!!!! I LOVE IT!!!! Hope you can make the fonts and graphics more beautiful and more attractive. I'm giving five star again if you could apply my suggestion to the game. I recommend this game for people who finds a beautiful strategy tower defense.
Lame game Played this game and its just to lame to play, cool graphs to draw people to play. Real game is just to sad to play!

Not pay to play People keep complaining the game is pay to play and it isn't. Yes it is difficult and yes you have to grind old levels to afford upgrades to beat new levels but you don't have to pay to advance. Just suck it up and do old levels to get money. The fact I think the amount of grinding is a little too much is why it gets a four. I am at the 8th area.
Poor game This is a fun game but this game forces players to spend money to even pass certain levels! The developers NEED to Increase coins earned during missions by ten fold! Otherwise they are gonna loose players! The game forces players to buy crystals and coins before players can play or even pass the 4th level! Developers need to seriously retrofit this game! Stars will increase as developers start fixing the for mentioned and several glitches and bugs that I've found!

Company Response on 08/07/2011:
I own a Ashley Furniture Homestore in Melbourne fl and been having horrible service from AFI (Ashley Furniture Industries) for over the last year. I am now being forced out of business by what they call bad management. I have been forced to wait months on end for their product that was supposed to be warehoused for us. Meanwhile the furniture was being shipped to corporate stores and other special stores. I gave refunds , and discounts and lent furniture to my customers for as long as I could. I have given refunds to about 25% of my total sales for the last year. This has left me bankrupt and broke. This is a what has happened to hundreds of local owners of their franchised stores. I have been in the furniture business for over 39 years and have always had the best reputation. They are saying they did not ship because I owed them money. I would have stayed more than current if they had shipped and I would not have had to refund over $1.5 million dollars. The customers would have been happy and I would have done a ton more business. After 39 years in the furniture business I am broke, 65 years old, losing my home and everything I have worked for. This is just to give a view of the other side of the Ashley Furniture Homestore saga. Hopefully the truth will get out there . Richard Stevens

How do I write the formulae of the ions produced when these compounds dissolve in water?
Magnesium hydrogen carbonate
Calcium nitrate
Potassium hydrogen sulphate
Iron (III) sulphate
Copper (II) chloride
2 Answers | add yours
When ionic compounds come in contact with water, they dissociate into their constituent ions. Opposite poles of water molecule then surround each type of ions, thereby giving them sufficient stability in the ionic state. This process is called solvation (hydration, when the solvent is water) of ions, and represented as M+(aq.) or K-(aq.).
The given compounds will dissociate in aqueous solution as follows:
`MgHCO_3 +H_2O stackrel larr rarr Mg^(2+)(aq.)+HCO_3^(-)(aq.)`
and again, `HCO_3^(-)(aq.) stackrel larr rarr H^+(aq.) + CO_3^(2-)(aq.)`
Overall `MgHCO_3 +H_2O stackrel larr rarr Mg^(2+)(aq.)+H^+(aq.)+CO_3^(2-)(aq.)`
`Ca(NO_3)_2+H_2O stackrel larr rarr Ca^(2+)(aq.) + 2NO_3^(-)(aq.)`
`KHSO_4 +H_2O stackrel larr rarr K^+(aq.)+ HSO_4^(-)(aq.)`
and again, `HSO_4^(-)(aq.) stackrel larr rarr H^+(aq.) + SO_4^(2-)(aq.)`
`KHSO_4 +H_2O stackrel larr rarr K^+(aq.)+ H^++SO_4^(2-)(aq.)`
`Fe_2(SO_4)_3 +H_2O stackrel larr rarr 2Fe^(3+)(aq.) + 3SO_4^(2-)(aq.)`
`CuCl_2 + H_2O stackrel larr rarr Cu^2+(aq.) + 2Cl-(aq.)`

There is another convention to write dissolutions in which water is not included in the reaction, i.e.
`CuCl_2(s) stackrel (H_2O) rarr Cu^(2+)(aq.) and 2Cl^(-)(aq.)`
Yet another area of argument is dissociation of bi-salts. Thus, some people prefer dissociation of `KHSO_4` to be stopped in the first step.
`KHSO_4(s) stackrel (H_2O) rarr K^(+)(aq.)+HSO4^(-)(aq.)`

The Northern Cross - Apologetics and Catechesis
Father Richard Kunst: Mass is not a ball game, it's where heaven and earth kiss
My first assignment as a newly minted priest was as associate pastor in a fairly large parish. I was there for two years before being made a pastor of three much smaller parishes. While I was in the large parish, I thought I had gotten to know the place and the people fairly well, but in reality I hadn't. The parish was too big to get to know well in only two years.
Father Richard Kunst
Things changed when I moved into the three smaller parishes. I was only there for two years as well, but by the time I was moved again I knew every nook and cranny of the place. I knew exactly where every parishioner sat and when they were not there on Sundays, and I also knew if they were chewing gum in Mass. (In a smaller church you can see a lot of things from the pastor's chair.) Since then, I have been in a couple of larger parishes for a much longer tenure, and even in these larger parishes the pastor gets to know and see a lot after several years. I pretty much know where all my parishioners sit, and I pretty much know when they are gone, and I try to observe if they are chewing gum.
If they are, I say something.
If I see a single person chewing gum in the entire church, I say this right before Communion: "Would those who are chewing gum please dispose of it before coming to Communion."
At first, I got a few giggles, but now the gum chewing in my Masses has gone way down. I don't have to say it as often, and when I don't notice a particular gum chewer, either one of my parishioners sitting near them will say something to the person, or one of my flock will tell me about it after Mass.
The worst is at weddings and funerals. Pardon the expression, but looking out at the people in the pews during those times can be like looking at a herd of cows chewing their cud.
I have no sympathy for gum chewers at Mass. If I had it my way, the ushers would round them up with hot pokers and make them sit in our gathering space until it was time for the final blessing.
Now, I have to give some allowance for those who come to the Saturday night Mass and innocently forget they have gum in their mouths, but who chews gum at 8 a.m. or even 10:30 a.m. for that matter?
Mass is not a ball game, it's where heaven and earth kiss, where time and eternity meet because the Lord of Lords and the King of Kings becomes present on the altar. What kind of manners are shown when people come into that setting chomping on gum as if they were at a picnic? Their parents ought to have some old-time Catholic educator slap them with a ruler for not having taught their children a basic understanding of manners or theology.
I say theology because of what the Eucharist is and what it means to consume the Eucharist when you are chewing gum.
Do we really know and appreciate that the Eucharist is truly the Second Person of the Trinity in all his divinity?
Do we know that our knees should be trembling as we walk in the Communion line at the thought of who will enter into our very selves?
Do we know these basic things that I often refer to as Catholic Theology 101?
If we are chewing gum in the midst of Mass, then the answer is no, we don't know basic Catholic theology, or worse, we don't care.
The thought of what happens when someone has gum in their mouth and then receives Christ in the Eucharist makes me shudder. And it is so common! There is a good chance that small particles of the host would get stuck in the gum, and then the common practice is not to swallow the gum (though they should) but to toss it in the garbage. It is mind boggling that so many people show so little respect for the Blessed Sacrament.
I encourage my brother priests to also take notice and say something when someone is doing this awful thing at Mass. If we don't say it, who will? I also encourage those faithful who have a love for the Blessed Sacrament not to be afraid to say something when you see someone slobbering and making a fool of themselves in the midst of this most sacred time.
I might sound harsh in some of the words I am using to describe the gum chewing problem. Well, guess what! I am not going to apologize! The Eucharist is the source and summit of who we are as Catholics. For me personally, it is why I became a priest. I hope and pray that we grow in greater love and appreciation for this greatest gift God gave us. Don't look like a cow with its cud at Mass!

Our Once and Future Planet : Restoring the World in the Climate Change Century
The environmental movement is plagued by pessimism. And that's not unreasonable: with so many complicated, seemingly intractable problems facing the planet, coupled with a need to convince people of the dangers we face, it's hard not to focus on the negative
But that paints an unbalanced—and overly disheartening—picture of what's going on with environmental stewardship today. There are success stories, and Our Once and Future Planet delivers a fascinating account of one of the most impressive areas of current environmental experimentation and innovation: ecological restoration. Veteran investigative reporter Paddy Woodworth has spent years traveling the globe and talking with people—scientists, politicians, and ordinary citizens—who are working on the front lines of the battle against environmental degradation. At sites ranging from Mexico to New Zealand and Chicago to Cape Town, Woodworth shows us the striking successes (and a few humbling failures) of groups that are attempting to use cutting-edge science to restore blighted, polluted, and otherwise troubled landscapes to states of ecological health—and, in some of the most controversial cases, to particular moments in historical time, before widespread human intervention. His firsthand field reports and interviews with participants reveal the promise, power, and limitations of restoration.
Ecological restoration alone won't solve the myriad problems facing our environment. But Our Once and Future Planet demonstrates the role it can play, and the hope, inspiration, and new knowledge that can come from saving even one small patch of earth.

Book Description:Lights! Scripture! Action! Ready-to-Go Scripture Skits engages and involves young people in an active form of learning that is hard to beat. It achieves MLP (maximum learning potential) through FLP (full laugh potential), and the skits are so off-the-wall that you will have no problem involving just about everybody in your group one way or another (actually, most will have no choice in the matter!). Each of the ten sessions in this book uses an intentional three-act process to help the young people explore the Scriptures and apply them to their lives today: Act 1: Engage grabs the young people's attention by getting them to perform an outrageous and spontaneous Scripture skit. Act 2: Examine leads them to a deeper insight by explaining the historical context and meaning of the key elements in the Scripture skit. Act 3: Explore brings it all home by helping them apply the meaning of the Scripture story to their lives today. The sessions are perfect for religious education classes, youth groups, campus ministry events, retreats, lock-ins, and intergenerational and family programs. Best of all, the ready-to-go skits are just that: ready-to-go. Few props are used, no lines need to be memorized, and no characters need to be developed.

Priscilla Chan, The New York Times Learning Network Bridget Anderson, The Bank Street College of Education in New York City Subjects: Civics, Economics, Health, Science, Social Studies Interdisciplinary Connections Review the Academic Content Standards related to this lesson. Suggested Time Allowance: 1. Consider ways people can stay healthy and what they can do in the case of illness. 2. Assess how lifestyle and health considerations affected three different heart attack patients. 3. Understand how social class affects health through discussion of the article �Life at the Top in America Isn't Just Better, It's Longer.� 4. Reflect on how health has been transformed into a commodity. Resources / Materials: -pens/pencils -paper -classroom board -copies of the article �Life at the Top in America Isn't Just Better, It's Longer,� found online at http://www.nytimes.com/learning/teachers/featured_articles/20050517tuesday.html (one per student) 2. Explain to students that they will be divided into six groups, with two groups focusing on each of the three patients just described. One of the two groups will describe lifestyle characteristics of the patient, while the other group will describe health characteristics of the patient.
Each group will read a subsection of the article, which will serve as the context for their work, as follows (the teacher may find it helpful to pre-highlight each group�s reading requirements before class begins): The two groups for each patient will be responsible for answering the following sets of questions, respectively, using the New York Times article (copied into a handout for easier student access):
Lifestyle Characteristics:
Health Characteristics: When each group has finished, allow groups to present briefly their findings to the rest of the class. The teacher should create a table on the board that allows students to organize their comparisons of the three patients, based on the variety of variables each group examined. 3. Explain to students that The New York Times is addressing class issues in a series of articles titled Class Matters, including the article they have just read. How do the students define �class�? Solicit some informal definitions from students. Then, as a class, read aloud the description created by The Times, which defines class as �a combination of income, education, wealth and occupation.� Reshuffle the original six groups �jigsaw� style to form new groups with representation from all three case studies. Allow the new groups time to discuss the following four questions, referring to the information generated by the class activity as indicated by the table on the board:
-How has income affected the health choices and outcomes of each of the three patients?
Remind students to cite specific examples from the article to support their opinions. Once groups have had a sufficient amount of time to discuss the questions (about ten minutes), as a class, summarize the discussion by reading the introduction to the article, starting with the fourth paragraph (�Architect, utility worker, maid��) and ending with �It�s almost as if it�s transforming health, which used to be like fate, into a commodity. Like the distribution of BMW�s or goat cheese,� focusing on the following questions: Finally, make sure that students understand the idea of a �commodity.� Merriam-Webster Online (http://www.m-w.com/) defines it as �an economic good.� Students will need to use this definition in their homework assignment. 4. WRAP-UP/HOMEWORK: Individually, students respond to the following question in a reflective essay: �Based on what you have read in the New York Times article and from the class activity, do you think health can truly be turned into a commodity? If so, what are the implications? Does the influence of class outweigh other health considerations, such as personal behaviors or genetics? Cite examples to support your opinion. Are class-based health care inequities fair? What do you think our society (the government, health care companies, etc.) can or should do, if anything, about these inequities?� In a future class, students may share their essays with their peers. -Why is a �social support network� important? -What other illnesses affect the heart? -How might a socialist or communist system address health care options for the population? 2. Research the principles of statistics that would help an epidemiologist extrapolate from the three case studies of the patients from the New York Times article to the population at large of the United States. How large a sample would be needed to test the hypothesis that social class influences the uneven outcomes of a heart attack? On what factors would this sample number be determined? Why? How would failing to reach this sample size question the correlation between class and health? How likely is it that factors other than class contributed significantly to the disparity in these three patients� experiences and health outcomes? 3. Create three different pie charts for three fictional adults who are from the lower class, middle class and upper class, respectively. Indicate what percentages of their monthly or yearly income they spend on housing, transportation, food, clothing, health care, entertainment, etc. Imagine you had to itemize the spending of these three individuals (such as the types of food or the regularity of their health care). How might these expenditures affect the person�s health? Fine Arts - Create a piece of art that symbolizes one way in which �class - defined as a combination of income, education, wealth and occupation � [has influenced] destiny in a society that likes to think of itself as a land of unbounded opportunity,� according the New York Times Class Matters series description. Global Studies - The New York Times article mentions that the mortality rates in the United States have fallen, though at a slower rate for the poorer classes. Research and create a table that indicates the infant mortality rate or life expectancy in a certain country compared with the Gross Domestic Product or GDP per capita for that same country. What patterns, if any, do you see? Graph your findings and describe any trends. Teaching with The Times - For the period of a month, screen the newspaper for articles that tell the story of individual persons. Cite parts of the article that directly or indirectly indicate the person�s social class. Then reflect on the following question: How does the suggestion of the person�s social class affect the telling of the person�s story, if at all? To order The New York Times for your classroom, click here. Technology - Create a �How It Works� poster that diagrams and explains how angioplasty works inside the body after a heart attack. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/actintime/) is a valuable resource on heart attack facts and information about spotting warning signs and decreasing health risks.

The Joines/Joynes/Jines DNA Project - Results
The first two test are back and we have a 99% match! One of these test is from Ezekiel Joines' line through his son Thomas' descendant and the other is from Ezekiel's son Edmund Joines' descendant.
This answers a question that has puzzled researchers for years: Was Edmund a son of Ezekiel's? In several documents (including Ezekiel's will from 1803) Edmund Joines is refered to as "alias Edmund Gunter". this opens up the possibility that Edmund was not Ezekiel's son. The results of this test prove that he was indeed Ezekiel's son.
The results of these first test indicate that we are from the Haplo group K2. K2 is a rare haplo group. This opens up a lot more questions. Here is some information about the K2 group: (This was submitted by a Joines Family researcher, Joyce Joines Newman)
Less than 1 percent of the population worldwide belongs to K2. There isn't a lot of information about it because so few people who've done DNA testing belong to this group. The most well known member so far is Thomas Jefferson, whose family was said to have come from Wales, just as the Joines family may have. It has been found in other British men from the York area not related to Jefferson. I found several US DNA study reports where they are K2 and also say they're from Wales.
K2 is a subgroup of the K haplogroup that probably originated in Southeast Asia around 30,000 years ago. I'm attaching a PDF of an article that is the best one I've found so far about it.
Here's a summary:
K haplogroup:
'Y-Adam' > M168 > M89 > > M9
The marker M9 first appeared in a man born around 40,000 years ago in
present day Iran or south-central Asia. This marked a new lineage diverging from the M89 Middle Eastern clan. His descendants spent the next 30,000 years populating much of the planet.
This large linage, called the Eurasian Clan, dispersed gradually over
thousands of years. Seasoned hunters followed the herds ever eastward, along the vast 'highway' of the Eurasian Steppe. Eventually their path was blocked by the massive mountain ranges of south-central Asia: the Hindu Kush, the Tian Shan and the Himalayas. These three mountain ranges meet in the center of a region known as the Pamir Knot, located in present-day Tajikistan. Here the tribes of hunters split into two main groups. Some moved north into central Asia, others moved south into what is now Pakistan and the Indian subcontinent. These different migration routes through the Pamir Knot region gave rise to separate lineages. Most people of the Northern Hemisphere trace their roots to the Eurasian Clan. Nearly all North Americans and East Asians are descended from this man, as are most Europeans and many Indians.
K2 haplogroup:
'Y-Adam' > M168 > M89 > > M9 > M70
Not all M9 descendants challenged the problem of the Pamir Knot. Others stayed in the relatively fertile environment of the Near East.There some 30,000 years ago, the marker M70 appeared and today defines this Haplogroup K2. Ancient members of the K2 dispersed across the Mediterranean region.
The K2 lineage is presently found only at low frequencies in Africa, Asia and in the Middle East. This specific line is found at low frequency in Southern Europe, Northern Africa and the Middle East.
Backbone SNP test results are: M70 which is a confirmation of the K2 haplogroup.
The results are in for the test on a descendant of George W. Joines from Giles County, Tennessee. The results indicate that there is a 99% chance that the descendants of George Joines and the descendants of Ezekiel Joines have an anscestor in common. George Joines is believed to have been a son of Thomas Joines who lived in Giles County. Census records indicate that Thomas was born in Maryland about 1785.
The results of the second SNP test are M70+. This again confirms that we belong in the K2 haplogroup.
The results have been returned for the descendant of Joseph Joines. There is a 99% chance that the descendants of Joseph Joines of Kentucky, the descendants of George Joines of Tennessee, and the descendants of Ezekiel Joines of North Carolina have an ancestor in common.
A branch of the Joseph Joines Family changed the spelling to Jines. The member that has been tested uses the Jines spelling. This proves that the Jines variation and the Joines variation are descendant from a common ancestor.
A member has joined the project that is a documented descendant of Edmund Joynes. Test results have been returned and this member is a match with every other member that has been tested, to date. This means every member has a common ancestor. Could that ancestor be Edmund Joynes? Edmund lived on the Eastern Shore of Virginia in the late 1600's and died there about 1712. Only further research will determine this.
