Palm oil's climate impact worse than thought due to methane emissions
(02/27/2014) Methane leaks from palm oil wastewater significantly increases the climate impact of palm oil production beyond emissions from land clearance, fire, and peatlands drainage, reports a new study published in Nature Climate Change. The research, led by Philip. G. Taylor of the University of Colorado, finds that annual methane emissions from palm oil wastewater effluent amount to the equivalent of 115 million tons carbon dioxide in Malaysia and Indonesia alone, or roughly 15 percent of total emissions from peat oxidation and land use change in the two countries.
Corals thriving despite acidified conditions in remote Pacific bay
(02/25/2014) Scientists have discovered a small island bay in the Pacific which could serve as a peephole into the future of the ocean. Palau's Rock Island Bay harbors a naturally occurring anomaly – its water is acidified as much as scientists expect the entire ocean to be by 2100 as a result of rising carbon dioxide emissions.
Reduced impact logging failing to cut emissions in Indonesia
(02/10/2014) Advocates for reduced impact logging in tropical forests often make a case that better forest management cuts carbon emissions relative to traditional forms of timber harvesting. While the argument for altering logging approaches to limit forest damage makes intuitive sense, a new study suggests that the carbon benefits may not bear out in practice.
Peatland plantations drive steep GHG emissions in Indonesia's Riau Province
(02/05/2014) Versatile is the best way to describe the reddish brown fruit born from oil palm trees. Both the flesh and seed of the fruit is used in many applications including cooking, cosmetics, and biofuel. In addition, the fruit is composed of 50 percent oil, making it a highly efficient product that requires less land than other oil producing crops.
Carbon emissions rise 2 percent in U.S. due to increase in coal
(01/14/2014) Carbon dioxide emissions rose two percent in the U.S. last year, according to preliminary data from the Energy Information Administration. Emissions rose largely due to increased coal consumption, the first such rise in U.S. emissions since 2010. Still, the annual emissions remain well below the peak hit in 2007 when emissions hit 6 billion tons.
Climate fail: Geoengineering would cool planet, but screw up rainfall patterns
(01/14/2014) For decades, scientists have been grappling with the consequences of climate change and working toward viable solutions. Climate engineering, also known as geoengineering, is the most controversial possible solution. Currently, one of the most talked about geoengineering ideas is Solar Radiation Management (SRM), which intends to block shortwave solar radiation, thus cooling the Earth to offset rising temperatures. In other words, SRM may be one way in which global temperatures could be artificially stabilized.
Chickens before cows: new study finds cattle have outsized greenhouse gas footprint
(12/19/2013) If you want to lower your greenhouse gas emissions, choose chicken or poultry over beef and dairy, according to a massive new study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). The study finds that global cattle production—both for beef and dairy—is responsible for a whopping 77 percent of the world's greenhouse gases attributed to livestock. Meanwhile, pork and poultry account for only 10 percent the greenhouse gases from livestock.
Top 10 Environmental Stories of 2013
(12/10/2013) 1. Carbon concentrations hit 400ppm while the IPCC sets global carbon budget: For the first time since our appearance on Earth, carbon concentrations in the atmosphere hit 400 parts per million. The last time concentrations were this high for a sustained period was 4-5 million years ago when temperatures were 10 degrees Celsius higher. Meanwhile, in the slow-moving effort to curb carbon emissions, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) crafted a global carbon budget showing that most of the world's fossil fuel reserves must be left untouched if we are to avoid catastrophic climate change.
Top scientists propose ambitious plans to safeguard world from devastating climate change
(12/05/2013) Two degrees is too much: that's the conclusion of a landmark new paper by top economists and climatologists, including James Hansen formerly of NASA. The paper, appearing in the open-access journal PLoS ONE, argues that global society must aim for only one degree Celsius of warming above pre-industrial levels to avoid the worst impact of climate change, and not the two degrees Celsius agreed on by the world's governments. But given that the world's governments are not yet on track to even achieve the two degree target, how could we lock in just one? A combination of renewable energy, nuclear power, and, most importantly, a rising price on carbon emissions, according to the eighteen scientists.
Humans are not apex predators, but meat-eating on the rise worldwide
(12/05/2013) A new paper in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences has measured the "trophic level" of human beings for the first time. Falling between 1 and 5.5, trophic levels refer to where species fit on the food chain. Apex predators like tigers and sharks are given a 5.5 on trophic scale since they survive almost entirely on consuming meat, while plants and phytoplankton, which make their own food, are at the bottom of the scale. Humans, according to the new paper, currently fall in the middle: 2.21. However, rising meat-eating in countries like China, India, and Brazil is pushing our trophic level higher with massive environmental impacts.
The emissions gap and the forest contribution (commentary)
(11/20/2013) Shortly before the Warsaw climate talks, the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) released its Emissions Gap report, highlighting the growing gap between the emissions reductions that are needed to stay below 2 degrees and the trajectory the world is on at the moment. The report clearly identifies forests as one of the most important options to reduce emissions which can be delivered in the short term. While parties urgently need to start phasing out fossil fuels and stop emissions from fossil fuels no later than 2050, protecting forests now can help significantly to keep a realistic chance of staying below 2 degrees.
Mining the Heart of Borneo: coal production in Indonesia
(11/20/2013) Indonesia is the world's top exporter of coal – supplying energy to China, India, and elsewhere. Indonesia is also ranked the fourth top emitter of greenhouse gases in the world (after China, the USA, and the European Union), largely due to high deforestation rates and peatland fires. This ranking does not take into consideration the carbon emissions that Indonesia 'exports' in the form of coal.
UN talks tough to global coal industry
(11/19/2013) Yesterday, at the International Coal and Climate Summit—just a couple miles from the ongoing UN Climate Summit—Christiana Figueres delivered a speech unlike anything ever heard at a coal industry meeting before. Figueres, the Executive Director of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), took time off from wrangling world leaders and officials toward a climate agreement to talk tough to an industry currently worth around $3 trillion.
Carbon emissions set to hit new record high in 2013
(11/19/2013) The amount of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere in 2013 is expected to hit a new high of 36 billion tonnes, according to a Carbon Budget released today by the Global Carbon Project (GCP). This is a 2.1 percent rise from 2012 based on data from the same group. 'We have exhausted about 70 per cent of the cumulative emissions that keep global climate change likely below two degrees,' said GCP member, Pierre Friedlingstein, with the University of Exeter. 'In terms of CO2 emissions, we are following the highest climate change scenario of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released in September.'
Fracking: the good, the bad and the ugly
(11/18/2013) The last few years have ushered in a new national and global awareness of fracking, the 150-year-old technology for extracting natural gas and oil from rock. Fracking, short for hydraulic fracturing, uses ultra-high-pressure slurries to create hairline fractures throughout solid rock. Oil, and more frequently gas, comes rushing out while sand from the mixture holds the fractures open in this nearly alchemical process. As many readers are aware, there are two very divisive schools of thought on fracking. One side touts it as the future of energy. The other derides fracking as inherently toxic and demands its immediate and permanent cessation. Like so many aspects of life, the truth lies somewhere in between.
Japan pledges to raise carbon emissions, instead of cutting them
(11/18/2013) In 2009, Japan pledged to cut its carbon emissions by 25 percent based on 1990 levels within 11 years. Four years later—including a nuclear meltdown at Fukushima—and Japan has reset its goal with a new target to cut emissions by 3.8 percent based on 2005 levels at the UN Climate Summit in Warsaw, Poland. But, the new target, which received widespread condemnation when announced on Friday, actually results in a 3.1 percent rise in emissions when viewed from the widely-accepted 1990 baseline.
World's most vulnerable nation to climate change turns to coal power
(11/18/2013) In October, a global risks analysis company, Maplecroft, named Bangladesh the world's most vulnerable nation to climate change by 2050. The designation came as little surprise, since Bangladesh's government and experts have been warning for years of climatic impacts, including rising sea levels, extreme weather, and millions of refugees. However, despite these very public warnings, in recent years the same government has made a sudden turn toward coal power—the most carbon intensive fuel source—with a master plan of installing 15,000 megawatts (MW) of coal energy by 2030, which could potentially increase the country's current carbon dioxide emissions by 160 percent.
3.5 million ha of Indonesian and Malaysian forest converted for palm oil in 20 years
(11/12/2013) Some 3.5 million hectares (8.7 million acres) of forest in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Papua New Guinea was converted for oil palm plantations between 1990 and 2010, finds a comprehensive set of assessments released by the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). The research, conducted by an international team of scientists from a range of institutions, is presented in a series of seven academic papers that estimate change in land use and greenhouse gas emissions from oil palm expansion in the three countries, review the social and environmental impacts of palm oil production, forecast potential growth in the sector across the region, and detail methods for measuring emissions and carbon stocks of plantations establishing on peatlands.
Bay Area pledges to slash greenhouse gas emissions by 80 percent by 2050
(11/11/2013) While many of the world's national governments move tepidly (if at all) to combat climate change, cities are showing increasing leadership. The San Francisco Bay Area's Air District Board signed off last week on a measure to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 80 percent within less than 40 years time as based on 1990 levels. The measure follows the same goal as an executive order made by California governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, in 2005.
CO2 concentrations hit new high last year
(11/06/2013) The concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere hit a record high last year, according to a new report by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). While this was not a surprise given still-rising global emissions, the concentration rose significantly more than the average this decade. According to the WMO's annual greenhouse gas bulletin, CO2 concentrations hit 393.1 parts per million (ppm) in 2012.
Zoos join fossil fuel divestment movement
(11/05/2013) Last month, over a hundred representatives from zoos and aquariums around the world joined climate activism group, 350.org, pledging that their institutions would take action against global warming, including the possibility of divesting from fossil fuel companies. The effort, dubbed Zoos and Aquariums for 350, was launched during the annual meeting of the Conservation Breeding Specialist Group (CBSG).
'Remarkable year': could 2012 mark the beginning of a carbon emissions slowdown?
(10/31/2013) Global carbon dioxide emissions hit another new record of 34.5 billion tons last year, according to a new report by the Netherlands Environment Assessment Agency and the European Commission's Joint Research Centre, but there may be a silver lining. Dubbing 2012 a "remarkable year," the report found that the rate of carbon emission's rise slowed considerably even as economic growth continued upward.
France upholds nationwide ban on fracking
(10/14/2013) France's landmark ban on fracking has survived constitutional challenges lobbed by U.S.-company, Schuepbach Energy. On Friday, the nation's Constitutional Council decided that the ban did not violate France's constitution. Passed in 2011 under then President Nicolas Sarkozy, the ban has since been upheld by current President Francios Hollande.
Clock is ticking on fossil fuels: for first time IPCC scientists outline global carbon budget
(10/01/2013) The world's leading climate scientists have set out in detail for the first time how much more carbon dioxide humans can pour into the atmosphere without triggering dangerous levels of climate change—and concluded that more than half of that global allowance has been used up.
Global society must leave fossil fuels in the ground, unburnt, says top official
(09/26/2013) World governments must get used to the idea of leaving fossil fuel reserves in the ground unexploited and unburned, one of the world's most senior diplomats has said, ahead of a landmark report on climate science to be unveiled this Friday by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The former Irish president and UN high commissioner for human rights, Mary Robinson, is to spearhead a new international push aimed at breaking the climate talks deadlock and silencing skeptics, with a group of senior diplomats and politicians from around the world.
African grass could substantially cut greenhouse gas emissions from livestock industry
(09/17/2013) Scientists will call for a major push this week to reduce the amount of greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture through the use of a modified tropical grass. Brachiaria grasses have been found to inhibit the release of nitrous oxide, which has a more powerful warming effect than carbon dioxide or methane, leading them to be called a super grass.
China punishes top oil companies for failing to clean up their acts
(09/03/2013) China's top two oil companies have been penalized for missing pollution targets, reports China Central Television (CCTV). The Ministry of Environmental Protection has suspended all refinery projects for China National Petroleum Corporation (CPNC) and the China Petrochemical Corporation (Sinopec) until they meet their pollution targets. The move is a part of a wider crackdown on pollution across China, which has suffered from record air pollution.
Bad feedback: ocean acidification to worsen global warming
(08/28/2013) As if ocean acidification and climate change weren't troubling enough (both of which are caused by still-rising carbon emissions), new research published in Nature finds that ocean acidification will eventually exacerbate global warming, further raising the Earth's temperature.
Yasuni could still be spared oil drilling
(08/26/2013) When Ecuadorean President, Rafael Correa, announced on August 15th that he was abandoning an innovative program to spare three blocs of Yasuni National Park from oil drilling, it seemed like the world had tossed away its most biodiverse ecosystem. However, environmental groups and activists quickly responded that there may be another way to keep oil companies out of Yasuni's Ishpingo-Tambococha-Tiputini (ITT) blocs: a national referendum.
China pledges $275 billion over 5 years to cut record air pollution
(08/19/2013) Last week China announced it was going to spend over a quarter of a trillion dollars ($275 billion) to fight rampant and life-threatening pollution in its urban centers over the next five years. Recent decades of unparalleled economic growth has taken a drastic environmental toll in China, including record air pollution levels in Beijing. The announcement follows other news, including that the Chinese government has recently scrapped a massive 2,000 megawatt coal plant project near the cities of Hong Kong and Shenzhen.
Foodies eat lab-grown burger that could change the world
(08/06/2013) Yesterday at a press event in London, two food writers took a bite into the world's most unusual hamburger. Grown meticulously from cow stem cells, the hamburger patty represents the dream (or pipedream) of many animal rights activists and environmentalists. The burger was developed by Physiologist Mark Post of Maastricht University and funded by Google co-founder Sergey Brin in an effort to create real meat without the corresponding environmental toll.
Drastic cuts to greenhouse gases could save hundreds of U.S. cities from watery grave
(08/01/2013) More than 1,700 American cities and towns – including Boston, New York, and Miami – are at greater risk from rising sea levels than previously feared, a new study has found. By 2100, the future of at least part of these 1,700 locations will be "locked in" by greenhouse gas emissions built up in the atmosphere, the analysis published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on Monday found.
Campaign contributions suggest dead-end for Congressional action on climate
(06/26/2013) Sources of campaign contributions to members of Senate suggest Congress will be unlikely to take action on comprehensive climate legislation, indicates data collected by MapLight, a group that tracks money's influence on politics.
After long wait, Obama lays out fight against climate change
(06/25/2013) Five years after being elected president and six months after winning a second term, President Obama today gave his first speech devoted solely to climate change and announced several executive actions to begin weaning the United States (historically the largest emitter of greenhouse gases) off fossil fuels. At Georgetown University today, Obama stated that his administration would expand renewable energy projects on federal lands, raise energy efficiency standards on appliances, and, most importantly, limit carbon pollution from both existing and new power plants, which represent about 40 percent of the U.S.'s emissions. Obama also noted that the U.S. would spearhead global efforts to combat climate change which is pushing sea levels higher, melting glaciers and sea ice, exacerbating fires, imperiling species, and worsening extreme weather worldwide.
Logging may destabilize carbon in forest soils
(06/14/2013) Logging in temperate zones may release more greenhouse gases than previously thought by destabilizing carbon stored in forest soils, argues a new paper published in the journal Global Change Biology-Bioenergy.
CO2 emissions hit record in 2012
(06/10/2013) Carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels use hit a record in 2012, according to a new report from the International Energy Agency (IEA).
Southern U.S. logging soars to meet foreign biofuel demand
(06/06/2013) In order to meet the European Union's goal of 20% renewables by 2020, some European utility companies are moving away from coal and replacing it with wood pellet fuel. The idea is simple: trees will regrow and recapture the carbon released in the burning of wood pellets, making the process supposedly carbon-neutral. But just like other simple ideas, it misses out important details that can turn it on its head.
Indonesia's largest coal plant will be built despite protests, minister says
(05/26/2013) Indonesia will go ahead with construction of what is set to be its largest coal-fired power plant in Batang, Central Java next year, a senior government official has said, downplaying opposition from environmental groups and the local community. Developers have struggled to acquire the approximately 200 hectares of land needed for the planned PLTU Batang plant, which would have a 2000 megawatt (MW) capacity. Residents of five villages have protested the project, with some refusing to release their land on fears of potential environmental damage to the area. Environmental groups also oppose the plant, saying it overlaps with a marine protected area and runs counter to President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono's commitment to reduce carbon emissions.
China to begin cutting carbon emissions one city at a time
(05/23/2013) China has unveiled details of its first pilot carbon-trading program, which will begin next month in the southern city of Shenzhen. The trading scheme will cover 638 companies responsible for 38% of the city's total emissions, the Shenzhen branch of the powerful National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) announced on Wednesday. The scheme will eventually expand to include transportation, manufacturing and construction companies.
Indigenous groups protest hydropower congress as controversy hits meeting in Malaysia
(05/22/2013) The opening of the International Hydropower Association (IHA) World Congress in the Malaysian state of Sarawak was marred today by indigenous protests and controversy after a local indigenous leader was barred from attending a pre-conference workshop. Over 300 people from local indigenous people protested the ongoing construction of around a dozen mega-dams in the state that threaten to flood traditional lands, force villages to move, and upend lives in the state. The Sarawak hydropower plans are some of the most controversial in the world—making the choice of Kuching, Sarawak for the IHA meeting an arguably ironic one—with critics contending that the dams are have been mired in political corruption, including kickbacks and bribes. IHA brings together dam builders, banks, and various related organizations worldwide every two years.
Canadian government drops over $16 million on advertising its tar sands
(05/16/2013) The Canadian government has nearly doubled its advertising spending to promote the Alberta tar sands in an aggressive new lobbying push ahead of Thursday's visit to New York by the prime minister, Stephen Harper. The Harper government has increased its advertising spending on the Alberta tar sands to $16.5m from $9m a year ago.
Eat insects to mitigate deforestation and climate change
(05/14/2013) A new 200-page-report by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) urges human society to utilize an often-ignored, protein-rich, and ubiquitous food source: insects. While many in the industrialized west might turn up their noses at the idea of eating insects, already around 2 billion people worldwide eat over 1,900 species of insect, according to the FAO. Expanding insect-eating, the authors argue, may be one way to combat rising food needs, environmental degradation, and climate change.
Last time CO2 hit 400 ppm, temperature was 8C warmer, seas 40m higher than today
(05/12/2013) The future of a globally warmed world has been revealed in a remote meteorite crater in Siberia, where lake sediments recorded the strikingly balmy climate of the Arctic during the last period when greenhouse gas levels were as high as today.
A new world?: carbon dioxide concentrations in atmosphere hit 400 ppm
(05/11/2013) For the first time since homo sapiens evolved, concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere have struck 400 parts per million (ppm) due to burning fossil fuels. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reports that readings of carbon dioxide at Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii hit the symbolic number on Thursday and are expected to continue rising in coming years. The last time concentrations were this high for a sustained period was 4-5 million years ago when sea levels were 5-40 meters higher than today and the poles were 10 degrees Celsius hotter. During this epoch, forests grew along the shores of the Arctic Ocean and coral reefs were almost wholly absent.
What if companies actually had to compensate society for environmental destruction?
(04/29/2013) The environment is a public good. We all share and depend on clean water, a stable atmosphere, and abundant biodiversity for survival, not to mention health and societal well-being. But under our current global economy, industries can often destroy and pollute the environment—degrading public health and communities—without paying adequate compensation to the public good. Economists call this process "externalizing costs," i.e. the cost of environmental degradation in many cases is borne by society, instead of the companies that cause it. A new report from TEEB (The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity), conducted by Trucost, highlights the scale of the problem: unpriced natural capital (i.e. that which is not taken into account by the global market) was worth $7.3 trillion in 2009, equal to 13 percent of that year's global economic output.
China to phase out super greenhouse gas
(04/24/2013) Some eight billion tonnes of greenhouse gases could be kept out of the atmosphere if China sticks to a deal with the United Nation's Montreal Protocol to eliminate the production of hydro-fluorocarbons (HCFCs). In return for phasing out HCFC production by 2030, the Multilateral Fund of the Montreal Protocol on Substances has promised China of funding up to $385 million.
RSPO failing to meet sustainability objectives for palm oil production, says WWF
(04/23/2013) An initiative that aims to improve the social and environmental performance of palm oil production is faltering in its mission by failing to establish strong performance standards on greenhouse gas emissions and pesticide use, argues a new statement issued by WWF, the initiative's biggest green supporter.
'Carbon bubble' could cause next global financial crisis
(04/22/2013) The world could be heading for a major economic crisis as stock markets inflate an investment bubble in fossil fuels to the tune of trillions of dollars, according to leading economists. "The financial crisis has shown what happens when risks accumulate unnoticed," said Lord (Nicholas) Stern, a professor at the London School of Economics. He said the risk was "very big indeed" and that almost all investors and regulators were failing to address it.
U.S. CO2 emissions fall to lowest level since 1994
(04/05/2013) Carbon dioxide emissions from energy consumption in the United States during 2012 fell to the lowest level since 1994, finds a new report from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, a branch of the Department of Energy.
Proposed coal plant threatens Critically Endangered Philippine cockatoo
(04/02/2013) One kilometer off the Philippine island of Palawan lies the Rasa Island Wildlife Sanctuary; here forest grows unimpeded from a coral island surrounded by mangroves and coral reefs. Although tiny, over a hundred bird species have been recorded on the island along with a major population of large flying foxes, while in the waters below swim at least 130 species of coral fish, three types of marine turtles, and that curious-looking marine mammal, dugongs. Most importantly, perhaps, the island is home to the world's largest population of Philippine cockatoos (Cacatua haematuropygia), currently listed as Critically Endangered. But, although uninhabited by people, Rasa Island may soon be altered irrevocably by human impacts.

The Best Cream for Dry, Cracked Hands
Q: I wash my hands frequently, which makes them really dry. Can you recommend a good hand cream?
MyChelle Dermaceuticals licensed esthetician Catie Wiggy responds:
It's always important to wash your hands, but it becomes crucial during the fall and winter months when it's easy to pick up whatever's "going around" by touching germ-covered doorknobs or simply shaking hands. Unfortunately, frequent hand washing can lead to irritated, dry and even chapped skin. Not comfortable—especially when combined with the cold weather!

"It's ironic that we are all telecom guys and it took us this long to do a phone system," says Jim Carroll, president of Savant, speaking of the company's soon-to-ship Telephony Solution product.
But judging from the reaction from one integrator, it might have been worth the wait. By the time CEDIA Expo 2011 arrives, Savant will be shipping its new Telephony Solution handsets.
Savant is planning three versions of the handsets that in essence are:
• A wireless handset
• A more robust handset with a limited 4-inch touchscreen
• An iPod Touch fully integrated into the handset. (available in 2012)
The unit works in tandem with the Savant iPBX Server to give homeowners access to features such as auto answer, do not disturb, call waiting, routing and hunt groups, voicemail, multi-line hunting, suspend and resume, call hold - all integrated into the automation system of the home. Because the system is fully integrated, homeowners and commercial end users can use their iPads to connect to the iPBX server and make phone calls.
Count Mark Goldman of Sound Components in Miami as one integrator who is excited about the handsets. "If Apple was to build a phone system, this is what it would be. It is so Apple-esque looking," he says. Goldman has only see the prototype of the system, which is still in beta testing with integrators. "I was goo-goo gaga over it," says Goldman, clearly at a loss for words.
Other features of the Savant iPBX technology include:
• Supports up to 72 endpoints, including Savant IP phones and Savant Telephony-enabled iOS devices.
• Entry Access Integration - Viewing and communicating with who's at the door or front gate from Savant endpoints
• Gateway Interconnection
• Local, long distance and international calling (service provider not included)
• Room-to-room paging, and page all
• Multi-line Savant IP phones and wireless handsets supported
• Wired and wireless solutions available
• Management, provisioning and monitoring application
"The challenge for dealers using existing keypad phone systems for control in homes is that most have had to use commercial SMB solutions. Those units have a commercial look and usually don't include residential feature sets," says Carroll. "Previously, the phone and automation system have had rudimentary integration for features like gate access."
Savant previously showcased the ability of its True Control remotes to integrate with the iPBX to allow homeowners to make VoIP calls using their remote control.

In her biweekly column, A Shared Tradition, CIA grad and amateur food historian Molly Siegler cruises around the world (and into the depths of her pantry) to explore the versatility of a single food item.
This week: Molly puckers up to four pickled vegetable preparations from across the globe.

- Molly
I was a late bloomer in the realm of pickles. I think I thought the giant dill pickles encapsulated in their own brining juices and heavy plastic were the only pickles out there. And those were, in my mind, decidedly not cool.
I am now making up for lost time with pickles at every turn -- I sometimes go for a full-on acid wash party intentionally (and happily) à la Amanda Hesser. Even though I love quickly pickled sour cherries and vinegar-saturated mango fingers, we're sticking to veggies for this round.
Southern (U.S.)
The pickled relish chow chow has zig-zagged its way across North America, settling in several regions as a tabletop staple.
Tsukemono, or Japanese pickles, find themselves at nearly every meal. Kyuri Zuke is a cucumber-based version.
Giardiniera is an adored Italian condiment. Bar La Grassa in Minneapolis greets you at the door with a tiny bowl of their olive oil-drenched version studded with giant white beans. Last time I visited, I ended up heading home with my very own quart (!) of the mixture.
Dill pickles are the unequivocal king of the pickle world, and Eastern Europe and Russia hold the crown.
Quick Cucumber and Shiso Pickles and Sweet & Spicy Pickled Ramps (photos by Sarah Shatz)
These are just a few of the ways I like to travel by way of pickled vegetables. What other regionally inspired flavors would you use to make this puckering condiment your own? Share your ideas in the comments section below.
Do you love a good food theme as much as I do? Tell me what food items or themes you'd like to see featured in this column and your idea could be the subject of an upcoming post!

alexandracooks says: Love both ideas! When I discovered roasted cauliflower, I started eating it by the head in single sittings. I am going to give the next kohlrabi bulb I receive a roast, and the next, a pickling. Love the sauerkraut flavoring idea. Thanks!
about 1 year ago Reply to this »molly's kitchen says: Oh good! I would love to hear how both preparations turn out. :)
about 1 year agoalexandracooks says: So many yummy ideas here! Do you have any thoughts about pickled kohlrabi? I am getting them in my CSA, and while I have wanted to love them for all the years I have belonged to a CSA, I still have a hard time finding a good use for them. I usually just thinly slice them on the mandoline and throw them into salads, but I'm wondering if pickling might be a good idea? Not sure. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Fun post!
about 1 year ago Reply to this »molly's kitchen says: I would eat all your kohlrabi for you! I think pickling it would be great -- and because it's a relative of cabbage, it would be fun to play with some sauerkraut flavorings like juniper berries and caraway seeds. I also find that roasting will subdue any untoward flavors. I have coerced many a wary cauliflower eater with that method. Good luck and thanks so much for reading!

The Clement brand was founded by Gustave Adolphe Clement-Bayard in France, and first started manufacturing high quality bicycle tyres in 1878. After World War I, the Clement brand moved to Italy, and this is how many people think of the brand. Clement tyres were the premiere tyre in competition for decades, and probably more Tour de France and single day "Classics" were won on Clement tyres than any other tyre in the world.

Abstract: Filoviruses cause severe hemorrhagic fever in humans with high case-fatality rates. The cellular factors exploited by filoviruses for their spread constitute potential targets for intervention, but are incompletely defined. The viral glycoprotein (GP) mediates filovirus entry into host cells. Recent studies revealed important insights into the host cell molecules engaged by GP for cellular entry. The binding of GP to cellular lectins was found to concentrate virions onto susceptible cells and might contribute to the early and sustained infection of macrophages and dendritic cells, important viral targets. Tyrosine kinase receptors were shown to promote macropinocytic uptake of filoviruses into a subset of susceptible cells without binding to GP, while interactions between GP and human T cell Ig mucin 1 (TIM-1) might contribute to filovirus infection of mucosal epithelial cells. Moreover, GP engagement of the cholesterol transporter Niemann-Pick C1 was demonstrated to be essential for GP-mediated fusion of the viral envelope with a host cell membrane. Finally, mutagenic and structural analyses defined GP domains which interact with these host cell factors. Here, we will review the recent progress in elucidating the molecular interactions underlying filovirus entry and discuss their implications for our understanding of the viral cell tropism.

Skyhawks have fun with summer workoutsMARTIN, TN -- At his farm in Martin, Tennessee, UT Martin Head Coach Kevin McMillan has his players doing a mixture of military style workouts and summer camp activities. "We decided to combine all of it," McMillan said. "We wanted to culminate the summer with something fun and it became what it is." From pulling tractors and racing canoes, each task has its own benefit that can translate to the court. The team carrying telephone poles across the property helps with communication. "It shows we have to communicate and not only that but listen to each other," senior guard Heather Butler said. "That goes on the court really well." McMillan also had the team do trust falls, in which one player falls and is caught by the rest of the team. "You have to trust your teammates, which is a part of basketball," McMillan said. "For us to have only known each other for five weeks and get up there and fall is a big deal," senior guard Jasmine Newsome said. "It will only help us as we get closer to the season." Even though some of it may seem like hard work, most of it is just a lot of fun. While canoeing several of the Skyhawk seniors decided to flip their boats. "My boat was in the water the whole time," senior Megan White said. "We had to bring the boat to shore five times. I'm soaking wet and it was my fault. So I think it was a lot of fun." Others didn't see it as much fun. "It was funny but if they came close to me I would've hit them with my paddle," Newsome said. Follow WPSD Sports on Facebook by clicking here. |

Company hopes to transform your smartphone into a desktop computer.
Software company Canonical is working to develop a system that allows your smartphone to be docked with a keyboard and monitor, allowing your phone to act as the computer.
Because the Android OS is based on the open-source Linux system, Canonical's "Ubuntu for Android" is able to tap into that underlying software, and run an Ubuntu Linux system straight from your phone. Rather than operating as an App, the system will sit dormant in a phone until it is docked, when it will spring into life. The company says that because it is based on the software already running your phone, it should be unnoticeable in terms of speed and memory usage when you are normally using your phone.
The best part is that all data and services can be shared between the two operating systems, so all of the contacts, files, and photos etc can be accessed and updated either on the phone, or through the Ubuntu interface.
"The desktop is the killer app for quad-core phones in 2012," said Canonical founder Mark Shuttleworth in the Canonical announcement. "Ubuntu for Android transforms your high-end phone into your productive desktop, whenever you need it."
The company is now working with manufacturers to have the system built in to new phones, and will be showing it off at the Mobile World Congress next week. MWC is sure to see the announcement of many other new handsets and innovations, so be sure to bookmark 8 Bit Future for the updates next week.

The birth pool that I'd decided on is out of stock everywhere online and has been since beginning of March. One site says they'll be available in March, but it's nearly the end of March now. Another site says they'll be available April 1st. I'm 26 weeks now. Am I cutting it too close to wait on this pool? The one I decided on is the Aquaborn Eco Pool. I like it because it's a bit deeper than some others. But now I'm wondering if I should just get something else so that I've got a pool on the way. Anyone have any insight as to why this particular pool is unavailable everywhere right now (at least everywhere that I know to look)? I've been to yourwaterbirth.com and waterbirthsolutionsstore.com. If there are other places to buy online, I'm unaware of them. What do you guys think?
Doesn't look like anyone actually answered you, I don't think your cutting it too close, but perhaps have a backup kiddie pool on hand.
I used a La Bassine and LOVED IT! I don't even remember it having handles, because the entire time I was leaned over the side. I do wish I would have used a liner, DH threw out the pool because it was "too yucky" to clean.
As for keeping the water warm, I didn't have an issue at all. I had DH blow up the pool in the morning (about 12 hours before I actually got in) when I just knew it was time to get ready (no contractions, just knew). He filled it up and had hot water on hand. We also had a hose (made for drinking water) attached to the bathroom sink, so it was filled up with warm water. I'm not sure of the exact details of how long the water was in the pool, and when he added more hot water, I was a little too busy. But the temp was perfect when I got in. In a few short minutes my DS was born. Wish I would have gone into the water soon, it's a huge difference than being out of the water. I was totally relaxed once I got in the water. The water level was perfect for me and i'm 5'6". The padding on the bottom was also perfect, who ever thought of that, THANK YOU! It was easy to get in and out.
Another reason I got this pool is for the materials. But come to think of it, if you put a liner in a pool what does it matter what the pool itself is made of, since the water is in the liner not the pool. Also the liner looks like it goes right over the inside handles (not sure about the outside) so for anyone who wants to use the handles this might not be a good thing.
We had an electric pump to get the water out, we did buy a fish net just to clean it, but like I said that just didn't happen.
I felt like the size was perfect, not too big or too small. I was EXTREMELY sensitive while in the water, so even DH grazing the water was too much for me. Thankfully I didn't have to deal with a midwife or anyone else trying to check me out during the process, I was able to just be with it and turn the whole world out, I do believe that is why the experience was so easy and amazing for me.
I def recommend testing the pool for leaks once you get it. Having even a small leak will make a huge difference. The walls on the La Bassine are strong and help up to me leaning over the side, no water came out during the process. So if you get a kiddie pool be sure to test all sorts of positions to see if it holds up.
I've read about some people giving birth in a regular tub, and I feel the only way I would do that is if I padded the tub - not even sure how to do that, having the cushioning from the inflatable pool was just so perfect, there was no pressure on my body from the pool, or floor... It really does make a difference.
I was squated on my feet facing outside the pool with my head and arms drapped over. It was so comfortable.
Next time I will def get this pool again, and use it with a liner!
Good luck mammas!

Latest Film Reviews
« Previous
Next »
He's Just Not That Into You (2009)
Couples who want to stay happy might want to think twice before seeking out a movie about how the majority of relationships end up making people paranoid and miserable.
The Seventh Seal (Det sjunde inseglet) (1958)
Perhaps no one film speaks more fully to the human condition than
The Seventh Seal
Anaconda (1997)
In its natural habitat,
can be appreciated for its campy pleasures, not the least of which is Jon Voight in a delirious, balls-out performance as creepy Paraguayan snake poacher Paul Serone.
The International (2009)
With its investigation (and a few expertly conceived action set pieces),
The International
builds a compelling case.
Predator 2 (1990)
Undeniably bad, but sort of a nice try.
24: Season 7 (2009)
In the end, the trashy but entertaining Season Seven will be best remembered for giving the show 'buzz' again.
Glory (1989)
In its broad strokes,
gets at the spirit of a group of previously unsung black heroes, and the filmmaking is of a high caliber.
Air Force One (1997)
[An] unabashedly jingoistic action extravaganza starring Harrison Ford as...'The Ass-Kicking President'...
Fargo (1996)
The Coen Brothers have always loved to go far, a tactic they don't forgo in
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966)
The sublime film music, now-iconic situations (like the climactic ghost town shootout), and sure visual style add up to a pitch-perfect genre pic that ongoingly influences generations of hip filmmakers.
Land of the Lost (2009)
It's all mildly entertaining in an incredibly stupid, borderline coherent way...But in banishing formula, the film ends up, well, lost.
Taken (2009)
A blunt-force narrative...[though] Morel does good work with a string of brutish and short action scenes...
True Blood: The Complete First Season (2008)
True Blood
is delightfully, deliriously sick and "wrong," but it's also a medium for Ball's patented brand of social satire.
True Romance (1993)
A hall of fame guy's movie...[with] a macho '90s ensemble eclipsed only by
Glengarry Glen Ross
...the monologues—oh, the monologues!
Falling Down (1993)
A heavy-handed potboiler, but as it raises the temperature, it does give cause to consider the line—so easily crossed—between social function and disasterous personal undoing.
Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991)
The bones of the story are comfortingly familiar, the action is rollicking, and the metaphorical moustache-twirling of Alan Rickman's Sheriff of Nottingham is priceless.
Field of Dreams (1989)
Widely regarded as a modern populist classic, the film is both a fabulist fable and a celebratory baseball movie that acknowledges scandal within the sport but also the game's transcendent ability to rise above attempts to damage its integrity.
Inside Man (2006)
Lee is a bona fide cinematic genius, and his lively and inventive take on tired material proves that thriller corn needn't be mindless in its machinations.
Black Sheep (1996)
It's nice to see the two together, practicing their easy screen rapport—and no doubt more so given Farley's untimely passing—but
Black Sheep
is still a clunker.
Gran Torino (2008)
Afterschool Specials
look like Ibsen.
The Man with the Golden Gun (1974)
A diverting but typically silly Roger Moore entry in the Bond canon.
Valkyrie (2008)
[A] pleasing throwback to 1970s war-intrigue pictures.
Seabiscuit (2003)
Writer-director Ross's true-believer American salesmanship—inspired by Frank Capra and honed in
--suits this story of American entrepreneurship, optimism, and resilience.
Children of Men (2006)
In Cuarón's highly-skilled hands,
Children of Men
continuously threatens to develop into something more fascinating than it is.
Yes Man (2008)
[The] writers...pay lip service to the dark side of 'yes,' but don't do enough to explore what could have made the film more than a bouncy entertainment
Bride Wars (2009)
It's like the Whack-a-Mole of everything reasonable people hate about so-called 'chick flicks.'
Cinderella Man (2005)
Cinderella Man
may not be subtle, but it's reminiscent of the well-crafted popular entertainments of Hollywood's Golden Age, blarney and all.
Frost/Nixon (2008)
Entertaining and provocative...a satisfying intellectual bout.
Grease (1978)
Problematic but ultimately irresistible adaptation of Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey's hit Broadway musical.
Three Days of the Condor (1975)
Pollack excels by establishing an interesting situation, sustaining it, and—in keeping with the paranoid-thriller genre—resolving it on a pleasingly ambiguous note.
Wayne's World 2 (1993)
Wayne's World 2
revels in silliness even more than the first movie, but it turns out that's a good thing as compensation for the otherwise repetitive feel.
Wayne's World (1992)
With Myers feeling his oats as a comedy star,
Wayne's World
turned out to be an irresistibly silly (and masterfully marketed) option for audiences.
Major League (1989)
A meat-and-potatoes '80s movie, that maybe doesn't 'taste great,' but at least is 'less filling.'
Tango & Cash (1989)
A bizarrely appealing movie,
Tango & Cash
is the essence of camp: it's bad and knows it's bad, so therefore, it's...good?
There's Something About Mary (1998)
Gauche, garish, and gross, a prime example of the coarsening of our culture and of the art of comedy in film. It's also pretty darn funny.
A Bug's Life (1998)
A Bug's Life
[is] sure to endure as a superb children's entertainment.
Collateral Damage (2002)
Schwarzenegger's Brewer remarks, 'If I don't do it, it seems no one else will,' but that's a lousy excuse for...a multi-million dollar mistake like this one.
The Wedding Singer (1998)
The tone set by director Frank Coraci tends to the cartoonishly broad while making jokes at the expense of grotesques.
American History X (1998)
If didactic and overwrought at times, it's also powerful and persuasive.
The Sky Crawlers (2009)
The technically proficient
The Sky Crawlers
is nice to look at and listen to...but by relying on zombified blank-slate characters, Oshii makes a point at the expense of engagement, much less entertainment.

Since this job is in a "gray area", does that gray area include paying taxes, or has she figured out a way to get around that as well? She might endear herself to us if she started the procedures to rectify her status, but I am sure that she is quite content living here illegally...after all, look what she has gotten away with up to now.

If citizenship is unjustly given to them this doesn't mean they will be model citizens because chances are they will want to retain their mexican citizenship also....in which case neither country CAN TRUST THEM WHEN IT COMES TO THEIR LOYALTY....they should be made to decide which country's citizenship they want to keep. Should the necessity arise that militarily they are needed to serve the US, or Mexico... WHAT THEN??? I think dual citizenship is WRONG. |

Montgomery Residents Ask City to Take New Action After Rash of ShootingsA rash of shootings in Montgomery has left neighbors concerned for their safety, and begging for the city to take new action. Montgomery Police are investigating the cause of a shooting at the gas station on Southern Boulevard on Wednesday morning. While police won't confirm it, eyewitnesses tell CBS 8 the shooting is related to prostitution. Residents like Joey Stuckey say prostitution brings crime, and he says the crime has been on the South Boulevard For far too long. Both shootings happened in City Councilman David Burkette's district. His Chief of Staff Jimmy McFarland says they are working hard to clean up the streets. "It goes back to education. You know, people get caught up in emotion," Calhoun says. "We have got to continue to educate people with consequences." Police are releasing very little details in both cases, but they did say the victim in this morning's shooting is being uncooperative. |

necrosis ne·cro·sis (nə-krō'sĭs, ně-)
n. pl. ne·cro·ses (-sēz')
Death of cells or tissues through injury or disease, especially in a localized area of the body.
necrosis (nə-krō'sĭs) Pronunciation Key
The death of cells or tissues from severe injury or disease, especially in a localized area of the body. Causes of necrosis include inadequate blood supply (as in infarcted tissue), bacterial infection, traumatic injury, and hyperthermia. necrotic adjective (nə-krŏt'ĭk) |
death of a circumscribed area of plant or animal tissue as a result of an outside agent; natural death of tissue is called necrobiosis. Necrosis may follow a wide variety of injuries, both physical (cuts, burns, bruises) and biological (effects of disease-causing agents). The sign of necrosis-dead tissue-is called a lesion; it is often of diagnostic value. Necrosis is brought about by intracellular enzymes that are activated upon injury and proceed to destroy damaged cells
