Making Peace with the Planet
A critique of the recent efforts to address and control environmental damage from the country's best-known environmentalist.
I regard him as right and compassionate on nearly every major issue.
-- Stephen J. Gould, New York Times Book Review
In his monumental bestsellers, The Closing Circle and Science and Survival, Barry Commoner was one of the first scientists to alert us to the hideous environmental costs of our technological development. Now, twenty years later, Commoner reviews the vast efforts made in the public and private spheres to address and control the damage done and shows us why, despite billions of dollars spent to save the environment, we now find ourselves in an even deeper crisis. It is a book of hard facts and figures whose conclusion--that environmental pollution can be prevented only through fundamental redesign of the way we produce goods--demands basic changes all across America, from the highest offices in Washington, D.C., to your own kitchen garbage can.
If, in the sixties and seventies, an eco-revolution seemed afoot, Commoner now documents how short we have fallen. Attempts to reshape consumer patterns have been half-hearted, there have been terrible miscalculations in government policy (and in environmental organization strategies), and we still face the deliberate resistance of private industry to change.
Despite these problems, Commoner argues convincingly for the key role still to be played by community organizations in scrutinizing and directing environmental action.
Translating technical information into digestible form, Commoner takes us step by step through an EPA "environmental impact" review, breaks down the arguments for and against incineration, explains dioxin, Bhopal, auto emission controls, mercury poisoning, the greenhouse effect, and the Byzantine calculation of "acceptable risk"--in ways that show how each of these factors affects all of us.
With a new introduction by the author, Making Peace with the Planet makes a clear and impassioned plea for us to stop wasting money and precious nonrenewable resources, including time.
Barry Commoner currently directs the Center for Biology of Natural Systems at Queens College and lives in Brooklyn. His previous books include Science and Survival, The Closing Circle, The Poverty of Power, and The Politics of Energy.

The Washington Nationals are hoping the momentum of a dramatic victory in front of a raucous crowd will carry over into another must-win game.
The St. Louis Cardinals believe their postseason experience over the last two years will help them with their season on the line yet again.
This division series concludes Friday night with Game 5 in Washington, where Nationals starter Gio Gonzalez has not allowed an earned run over his last 23 innings.
Washington won 2-1 on Thursday on Jayson Werth 's leadoff homer in the bottom of the ninth off Lance Lynn . Werth had not homered since Sept. 8.
"It's what it's all about. It's what you play all season for and what you work out all winter for and what you get to spring training early for," said Werth, who connected to cap a 13-pitch at-bat. "We have a chance tomorrow to take that next step. I know my teammates will be ready and the city will, too."
St. Louis went 4-0 when facing elimination en route to winning the World Series last year, and won 6-3 at Atlanta last Friday in the inaugural wild-card playoff game. Now the Cardinals find themselves in the same situation one week later.
"We got a lot of experience, a lot of confidence built," first baseman Allen Craig said. "Just going to the World Series and winning the World Series, having to play a Game 7 and come out on top - you're seeing a lot of us use that experience so far in this postseason.
"We had a tough, do-or-die game in Atlanta and came out on top, and after we won that game, I think we started to feel really good about ourselves and get that feeling like we had last year."
The Cardinals were limited to three hits Thursday after totaling 20 runs and 27 hits in consecutive victories that gave them a 2-1 series lead.
It's up to Gonzalez (0-0, 3.60 ERA) to hold St. Louis in check Friday. He made his playoff debut Sunday in Game 1, allowing two runs and walking seven over five innings in a 3-2 road victory.
"It was my first postseason game, no excuses, but the way I see it is playing in someone else's house, pretty rowdy," Gonzalez said. "It's pretty exciting. You catch yourself at the moment, take a step back and take a deep breath and try to find it again."
The left-hander figures to be more confident at home, where he has won his last four outings including his 23-inning stretch without yielding an earned run. He dominated St. Louis by striking out eight in a five-hitter during a 10-0 home victory Aug. 31.
Gonzalez will once again be up against Adam Wainwright (0-0, 1.59), who also limited the damage by yielding one run over 5 2-3 innings in the opener - his second career postseason start. Wainwright became the first Cardinal to strike out 10 in a playoff game since Bob Gibson in 1968.
"Same thing with Wainwright, he kept his team in the game he went 5 2-3 and one earned run," Gonzalez said. "You look at it as we both went out there and competed and you learn from it and you make adjustments and you go out there and attack the strike zone."
Wainwright also fared well against Washington on Sept. 28 as he earned a 12-2 victory by allowing one run over six innings. He was hit hard at Nationals Park on Aug. 31, though, opposing Gonzalez and giving up six runs over a season-low 2 2-3 innings.
The right-hander owns a 0.77 career postseason ERA including nine relief appearances. He's no stranger to pressure situations, striking out current teammate Carlos Beltran with the bases loaded for the final out to preserve a 3-1 victory over the Mets in Game 7 of the 2006 NL championship series.
"Of course I wish we would have won (Thursday), but you know what? This is every pitcher's dream, I would say," Wainwright said. "Every competitor's dream is to go in huge moments like that, so I look forward to the challenge."
The Nationals have been outscored 23-9 in this series and teenage All-Star Bryce Harper continues to struggle, going 1 for 18 with six strikeouts. Adam LaRoche entered Thursday 1 for 11 in the series before homering in the second inning to give Washington the lead.
Manager Davey Johnson doesn't sound concerned about the lack of offense.
"We won with three hits (Thursday); a couple big blasts," he said. "But I'd rather see that kind of game, it's more fun for me to manage that kind of game than, you know, a 10-9 game."
The winner advances to face San Francisco in the NLCS, which begins Sunday.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Carlos Beltran and the never-give-up St. Louis Cardinals began their latest comeback celebration quietly, plucking cans of beer from a blue bin that was hurriedly wheeled from the home to the visiting clubhouse in the middle of the ninth inning.
"How did that happen?!" Beltran asked, speaking to no one in particular.
Then in walked Pete Kozma , and the party really started. Teammates sprayed champagne bottles directly at the rookie shortstop who drove in the go-ahead runs against the Washington Nationals in Game 5 of their NL division series. Doesn't matter how bad things look for these Cardinals. Trailing by a bunch, down to their last strike, they simply stay calm and do what it takes to win.
Erasing an early six-run hole slowly but surely, the defending World Series champs got a tying two-out, two-run single from Daniel Descalso and a go-ahead two-run single from Kozma in the top of the ninth inning, coming all the way back to beat the Nationals 9-7 Friday night and reach the NL championship series.
"We never quit," catcher Yadier Molina said. "That's our rule."
Behind 3-0 before recording an out, behind 6-0 in the third inning, behind 7-5 with two outs and one on in the ninth, the Cardinals somehow, some way constructed the largest comeback ever in a winner-take-all postseason game, according to STATS LLC. No other club in this sort of ultimate pressure situation had come back from more than four down.
"We knew we had a lot of game left after they scored six. Nobody went up there trying to hit a six-run homer," said Descalso, whose solo shot in the eighth made it 6-5. "We needed to scratch and claw and get ourselves back in the game."
They did, barely: Descalso, who only hit .227 in the regular season, came up with a game-saving single that ticked off the glove of diving shortstop Ian Desmond to make it 7-all.
Then it was Kozma's turn. He hit .236 in nearly 2,500 at-bats over six seasons in the minors - the unheralded guy was mistakenly called "Cosmos" by Nationals manager Davey Johnson before Game 4 - and was in the Cardinals' lineup only because of an injury to Rafael Furcal . But he sent another pitch from Nationals closer Drew Storen into right field.
"I was looking for a good fastball to hit. He gave it to me," Kozma said. "You can't write this stuff up. It just happens."
First-year manager Mike Matheny and the wild-card Cardinals, the last team to clinch a playoff spot this year, will open the NLCS at San Francisco on Sunday. Lance Lynn , who was used in relief against Washington, will go back to the rotation and start Game 1.
The Nationals, meanwhile, led the majors with 98 wins in 2012 but their run ended without All-Star ace Stephen Strasburg . The team said he'd thrown enough this year and didn't put him on the playoff roster.
"I stand by my decision, and we'll take the criticism as it comes," general manager Mike Rizzo said, "but we have to do what's best for the Washington Nationals , and we think we did."
Even without him, Washington had its chances to knock off the Cardinals. Oh, were there chances. For a total of five pitches, Storen was one strike away from ending the game. But on all five, the batters - Yadier Molina and David Freese - took a ball. Both walked, setting the stage for Descalso and Kozma.
"We had it right there, and the most disappointing thing I'll say is that I just let these guys down," Storen said. "There's a bad taste in my mouth and that's going to stay there for a couple of months. It's probably never going to leave."
Cardinals closer Jason Motte , who got the win with two innings of one-run relief, said: "Maybe we're just stubborn. These guys, they don't give away at-bats, that's the thing."
When Motte got Ryan Zimmerman to pop out to second base a half-hour past midnight, the Cardinals streamed from the visiting dugout for hugs and high-fives. This, though, was nothing new to them.
Over the past two years, St. Louis is 6-0 when facing elimination, including victories in Games 6 and 7 of the 2011 World Series against Texas.
"It's just the kind of people they are. They believe in themselves. They believe in each other," Matheny said. "It's been this style of team all season long. They just don't quit, and I think that just says a lot about their character."
Down to their last strike in the Fall Classic a year ago, trailing by the exact same 7-5 score in the ninth inning, the Cardinals rallied in Game 6 and then took the championship in what turned out to be the final year with the club for slugging first baseman Albert Pujols and then-manager Tony La Russa. Now Matheny, who got the Cardinals into the playoffs as the second NL wild-card team on the next-to-last day of the regular season, has them four wins away from another World Series appearance.
And to think: Washington, which won the NL East, got off to as good a start as possible Friday.
Seven pitches, three runs. Just like that, Jayson Werth 's double, Bryce Harper 's triple and Zimmerman's homer got the hosts jump-started in their first Game 5.
That opening outburst, plus a big third inning highlighted by the 19-year-old Harper's homer, made it 6-0.
St. Louis was not about to go gently into the night.
"Would have been easy for us to go down 6-0 and sort of roll over and let the crowd take us out of it," Descalso said, "and just let them have the game."
The Cardinals chipped away, chipped away. One run off 21-game winner Gio Gonzalez in the fourth, a pair in the fifth, another in the seventh off Edwin Jackson - the Game 3 starter and loser, and an all-around surprising choice for midgame relief.
Suddenly, it was 6-4. Then came Descalso's homer off Tyler Clippard in the eighth. After Kurt Suzuki drove in a run for Washington to get the lead back up to 7-5, a four-run ninth against Storen - who had elbow surgery in April, returned to the team in July and reclaimed his closer role in September - completed the reversal.
"We've had a great year overcoming a lot of hardship," Nationals manager Davey Johnson said, "and to not go after them at the end was not fun to watch."
Beltran began the ninth with a double. Two quick outs later, the Cardinals were a strike away from going home. But Storen couldn't get the last one past Molina. Same thing with Freese. Then came Descalso's shot, sneaking past Desmond. The Nationals were inches, perhaps, from advancing. The Cardinals that near to their season finished.
Instead, they carry on, like they always seem to at this time of year. St. Louis is in the NLCS for the seventh time since the start of the 2000 season.
In Game 6 of last year's World Series, the Cardinals twice were one strike from losing, before Freese's two-run triple in the ninth, then Lance Berkman 's tying RBI single in the 10th. Freese's homer won it in the 11th, the Rangers never got to pop their champagne corks, and St. Louis went on to a 6-2 victory in Game 7.
Here they were, doing it again. The alcoholic beverages waiting on ice for the Nationals wound up getting moved down the hallway to the Cardinals.
All while a Nationals Park-record crowd of 45,966 witnessed the first postseason series in the nation's capital in 79 years. So seemingly close to a significant triumph, the Nationals - and their fans - left disappointed. Not long after the final out, a few dozen Cardinals fans gathered in the rows right behind the visiting dugout to chant, "Let's go, Cards! Let's go, Cards!"
Hours earlier, the red-dressed D.C. spectators began the night with chants of "Let's go, Nats!" right after the national anthem, then filled the raw October air with roars as run after run scored for the home team. But over the final innings, those Washington baseball fans wound up looking on with hearts in throats.
At the outset, highlights of leadoff hitter Werth's epic, 13-pitch at-bat from about 25 1/2 hours before were shown on the video board as he began the bottom of the first. On Thursday night, he ended Game 4 with a homer in the bottom of the ninth that gave Washington a 2-1 victory.
Picking up right where he left off, Werth doubled to the left-field corner off Adam Wainwright , and Harper followed with an RBI triple off the wall in left-center. Harper won't turn 20 until Tuesday; no other teen had a postseason three-bagger, according to STATS.
Harper was 1 for 18 for a .056 batting average - yes, .056 - with six strikeouts and zero RBIs in the NLDS until that moment. Zimmerman completed the crescendo by driving an 86 mph cutter into the first row beyond the wall in right-center.
In 11 previous postseason appearances - mainly as a reliever - Wainwright never had allowed more than one run in any entire outing, much less three in a single inning.
Got worse in the third. Harper led off with a homer, to the same area of right-center as Zimmerman's but a few rows deeper. Zimmerman doubled, and Michael Morse turned on the next pitch for a two-run homer to left that made it 6-0.
That was it for Wainwright, whose evening was over after 53 pitches across 2 1-3 innings.
His season, however, will continue. He plays for the can't-quit Cardinals, after all.
"We just gave ourselves a chance to come back and be within striking distance," Descalso said. "And the ninth inning was pretty remarkable."
Actually, this is what the Cardinals do.
They turn losses into wins, and then they steal the other guys' bubbly.
NOTES: Beltran went 3 for 3 plus two walks. ... The 9-7 final score might be familiar to longtime Washington baseball historians. In the last all-or-nothing game for a Washington baseball team, the Senators lost Game 7 of the 1925 World Series at Pittsburgh by the exact same score when Walter Johnson couldn't hold a 6-3 lead. ... This year is the first time that all four division series went the distance, giving baseball fans 20 of a possible 20 games to follow. ... LHP Madison Bumgarner will pitch Game 1 on Sunday for the Giants, who came back after dropping the first two games of their NLDS against the Reds and won Game 5 of that series on Thursday.

A mad cow scare leads to a lawsuit from a Kansas beef producer. Creekstone Farms plans to sue the U.S. Department of Agriculture. A move that Kansas Congressman Todd Tiahrt supports.
After two years of waiting, Creekstone Farms is taking matters into it's own hands.
"I totally support creekstones efforts to voluntary screen each carcass," said Tiahrt.
But the USDA won't allow it. That's why Creekstone Farms is filing a lawsuit. They say it's of critical importance to test all cattle for mad cow.The company says it's what customers want and they also believe it's vital to U.S. trade with Japan and other countries.
"I've had conversations with the Department of Agriculture to try to allow this," said Tiahrt. "They've blocked it each step of the path. I've even threatened to take away their travel funds if they don't allow this to occur."
Tiahrt says it's all about money, the cost of screening ever cow.
"I think the big packers in America are opposed to screening, because it costs about $20 a carcass," said Tiahrt. "But I think when you have a customer, like the people in Japan, a customer like the people in South Korea, whatever happened to the atage, the customer is always right? They want screened beef, and we haven't been allowed to give it to them because of the Department of Agriculture.
Tiahrt says the U.S. has lost over 3 billion dollars in sales due to to the mad cow scare.

XTERRA North Carolina Series is UnderwayHovis and Dorough win opening race at Whitewater Center The opening race of the 2011 XTERRA North Carolina Trail Run Series took place at the U.S. National Whitewater Center in Charlotte, where the famous whitewater rapids were running. But it was the rapid running of Ben Hovis and Ashley Dorough that took the spotlight at the inaugural XTERRA Whitewater Trail Run on Saturday, July 9. Hovis was the runaway overall winner, completing the 13-kilometer course in 53 minutes, 58 seconds. He finished nearly five minutes ahead of the runner-up, Justin Tucker. "The race went well for me," said Hovis, 33. "The first 300 meters or so was along the Whitewater Center rapids and then it ducked into the woods. I could hear a couple people with me for the first 600 meters or so, but once we hit the first uphill, I no longer had anyone to run with. It became me versus the course, which I enjoy." Hovis (pictured at right) is from Charlotte and often trains at the Whitewater Center, so his familiarity helped him maintain a fast pace from start to finish. "I know the trails fairly well, as I've run out there numerous times," he said. "I had run a race out there about a month ago, but it wasn't along the same trails." Dorough was an impressive seventh overall and the first female with a time of 1:03:30. "Whew - humid!" Dorough said of the conditions. "Gills may have served better for breathing ... the course was nice, especially because runners did not have to make multiple loops. Given the storm that came through the night before, I was actually surprised the trails weren't in worse shape -- it was muddy though, the kind that cakes up on your shoes muddy." Dorough stayed close to Kimberley Hefner for the first half of the race before pulling away. Hefner placed second among the females with a time of 1:04:13. Interestingly enough, it was the first XTERRA Trail Run for both Hovis and Dorough (pictured at left). Hovis works as a teacher and cross country coach at Providence Day School; Dorough works as a clinical health psychologist. The XTERRA Whitewater Trail Run was the first of three events in the 2011 XTERRA North Carolina Trail Run Series. Around 350 runners participated in the race, ranging in age from 12 to 73. For complete results, click HERE. The next race in the North Carolina Series will be the XTERRA Beech Mountain Trail Run - a 10-kilometer race at Beech Mountain, N.C., on July 24.

Well then...
Qualcomm announces new Snapdragon chips that are fast as hell | Android Central
And I thought the Nexus 4 wouldn't be trumped that easily.
I really doubt those statistics of something being 40% faster, I mean that's what apple says almost on every single processor since like the A1. - 01-08-2013, 01:30 AM #2
Re: Well then...
I didn't replace my Galaxy Nexus with a Nexus 4 because it has a faster processor. I did it for the nexus update and the HSPA+ 42 support. Also, because it is simply a gorgeous phone.
The processor referred here will be in phones this summer. Which basically gives the Nexus 4 about 6-7 months of a top of the line processor. Can't really ask for any more in today's fast moving world.
Suffice it to say I'm keeping my Nexus 4 for at least a year, probably more.

How long did you expect the N4 to have the fastest processor? In todays smartphone world, "Newest" and "Fastest" are only vaild for about 1-3 months.
Re: Well then...
There will always be something with the latest and greatest specs right around the corner and trying to keep up is like a dog chasing it's tail. What those future high spec devices won't have are the ability to keep up with the latest OS updates from Google and that's what mostly counts in my opinion, everything else is just bling. 1.5 quad core, 2gb of ram and running the latest Google has to offer is what an android device should be all about and the Nexus 4 is no slacker. I was so impressed with the Motorola Atrix when it was announced at CES back in 2011, ran out to get it when released and it turned out to be a POS. I will never again buy an android device that isn't a Nexus, for me it's nexus or nothing.

Re: Well then...
Phones are getting to be like desktop computers. The advancements in hardware have caught up to what is needed in software, so it's not as important anymore. The S3 is still a fast phone when it uses the dual core processor, so this will be a nice boost for technology but not as critical to the end user unless they are gaming.

Re: Well then...
I want to see what Samsung will put in their next phone. Imagine a quad core version of the Exynos chip in the nexus 10? Maybe with an updated GPU and all. That would make me jealous.

I don't want to live on this planet anymore.
Probably the most ridiculous thing I've seen all week. This = BAD IDEA.
they should do one with Rebecca Black.
I make money.
I said, "Mike, I'm coming for you, homie"
Cause Mike's always got my back when I'm lonely
And I always got his back when we fight
I'm coming for you, Mike, Imma save your life

Formerly known as Rebecca Black
So judging by the fact Joe Hahn just linked to this thread (Hi Joe!) and said "they used to ask our permission to do this stuff", I'm guessing the band isn't quite happy that this is being done and that Warner did it without their consent. Unless of course Joe was only trolling and they signed off on it.
I've updated the news post to reflect Joe's disgust/disappointment in this. If anybody on staff can edit the "twitter" link to have an exact link to Joe's tweet referencing this it'd be appreciated. I'm at work.
Shit idea. OMG. :/ Please, someone kill Warner. Thanks.

They're the biggest band on Facebook, I think they can survive without a label.
I agree Derek. I was relieved to see that Tweet from Joe though. To think that the band would approve of something like this is cringe-worthy...
Ridiculous. F
Mikes reaction when he saw this:
This irritates most of LP's fanbase. It must be good.
I don't know, I think it's funny, but if Joe Hahn is saying Linkin Park didn't give consent since this project is Warner funded, it seems like it could start some trouble. I guess it's a marketing scheme, though, since the album's coming out, a good way to market is to put out a viral video. However effective it is, we'll have to wait and see.
So I guess I'll just re-post what I wrote in the first page, shall I?
What an awful thing. Haha omgosh.
Warner doesn't know how to make more money, do they?
Using part of Joe's comment, I'm offended lyrics will be attributed to crappy cheap horror scenes like that. Is artistical blasphemy. What's even the point?
EDIT: I dunno what the band thinks of this, but it reminds me of Dean Koontz, when they wanted to do a film out of his novel, and when they started to twist the story around, he just said to put out his name from the film, 'cause that was not his story anymore.
Now, we know how labels uses their "products" as they want with or without approval from the source itself, but I just hope this ridicolousness won't have a gramm of success (meaning the most minor procentage possible of people displaying it).
And please, LP, free yourself from a contract.
If the band is not content with this, they have good reason, whether "humorous" or not, it's SHIT. I don't even know how could THAT be considered "funny", it sucks on so many levels.
Warner still has a chance to stop that trainwreck from happening, but they won't, unfortunately.
Because everyone has to know
You're GUILTY ALL THE SAME / Too sick to be ashamed
You want to point your finger / but there's no one else to blame
^It's funny because it's so bad.
I'd just watch it so I can take the piss out of every little thing they do/say, haha.

Property IDColter Ridge Lodge 4BD/3.5BA
Property TypeHouse
Floor area4145 sq.f.
Deluxe Rated -
Bedding: 1 King, 1 King, 2 twins, 2 twins
Approximately 4,145 square feet
Check-in at Teton Village office.
• Three sided fireplace
• Small office with fax
• Indoor hot tub
• Washer and dryer
Colter Ridge Lodge brings the beauty of the outdoors inside; the gracious layout finds serene details echoing the natural splendor surrounding the four-bedroom home.
Colter Ridge envelopes guests long before they step foot inside: The spacious entry porch presents a bench respite, and ivy colors the entrance.
The foyer, marked by flagstone, flows into the open-floor plan perched amid the fir trees. Two one-of-a-kind chairs create a meditative moment overlooking the forest. A den offers a retreat to the left of the front door, an enclave outfitted with a leather couch, flat-screen TV, wood-paneling and wide desk. Continue on to the master suite with its sweeping valley views, framed by the forest. A plush duvet covers the king bed, backed by a leather-paneled headboard piled with dhurrie accent pillows. The suite encompasses a deep walk-in closet and large master bath with custom cabinets, an artful sink, tile shower and bench.
Across the foyer, the living room blends contemporary aesthetics with Western warmth: rustic, barn-wood paneling lines the walls and exposed beams fly above. A pair of textured sofas dialogue with two leather armchairs around matching stone-topped tables in the primary seating area. Nearby, an iconic chaise atop a cowhide rug sits between the fireplace and a lamp-lit console for quiet contemplation of a cowboy lithograph. The cut-through fireplace warms both the living room and the adjoining dining room, where a stone-inlayed dining table comfortably seats eight beneath a chandelier of votives.
The neighboring gourmet kitchen boats a built-in charcoal grill, granite countertops, custom cabinetry, a double-basin porcelain sink, and a stove island. A breakfast area offers banquette seating as well as three chairs, and a built-in desk lends convenience. The kitchen overflows onto the deck, where a Weber gas grill, a dining table and chairs encourage outdoor entertaining.
Access the kitchen is also through the adjacent mudroom with dual entrances from the two-car garage and front porch. Its cubbies, a ski rack and coat hooks make winter disrobing easy. A powder room and hall closet round out the main-level amenities. Art enlivens every room.
Downstairs offers even more living areas, with a family room featuring a game table, armchairs, couches, 55' a flat-screen TV and entertainment system, including Blue-ray player for access to guests' internet accounts. An indoor hot tub feels outdoors with its surrounding walls of windows.
Lower level sleeping quarters look out onto the forest and include a junior master and a west wing suite comprising two bedrooms. The first downstairs bedroom presents two twins topped by woolen bedspreads and backed by wrought-iron headboards. Built-in shelves and closets offer ample storage. A second bedroom features two more twin beds, similarly sheathed in Pendleton blankets. A geometric chest of drawers and print of willows add aesthetic elements. A detached bath caters to both bedrooms with its tile shower and tub and double vanity.
Across the living area from the west wing is the third bedroom, which boasts a king bed with its wood headboard, duvet and leather-covered bench anchoring the bed's foot. A matching console and upholstered armchair accent the room, and the walk-in closet leads to the bathroom with its marble countertop and tile shower and tub.
All told, the Colter Ridge Lodge pairs serene elegance with nature immersion.
*Please note, gatherings greater than the maximum occupancy are not permitted in this property.

Xiaomi Wi-Fi router makes 'some assembly required' a perk, not a problem
The words "some assembly required" are rarely auspicious, but Chinese electronics company Xiaomi is betting the idea can be a selling point.
Customers buying unassembled flat-pack furniture or bicycles usually get extra work in exchange for a lower price. For Xioami's new Mi Wi-Fi 802.11ac router, the company apparently thinks building it will be half the fun.
"We're shipping the new Mi Wi-Fi router to our first 500 beta users unassembled in a beautiful wooden box, complete with white anti-static gloves," said Hugo Barra, vice president of Xioami Global and Google's former … Read more

Review of the 2008 Nissan Maxima
The 2008 Nissan Maxima provides decent performance, luxury and space, but is no longer the standout it once was in the midsize sedan segment.

Ample interior space, standard V6 engine, suspension well balanced for both handling and comfort.

Full 2008 Nissan Maxima Review
What's New for 2008
After receiving a midcycle refresh last year, the Nissan Maxima heads into 2008 with only mild package adjustments. Last year's Elite Package has been largely replaced by the Platinum Edition Package, though the Elite's more comfortable two-person backseat arrangement has been dropped.
The 2008 Nissan Maxima is a car with an identity crisis. In terms of price, heritage and image, this is Nissan's flagship sedan. But the days of the Maxima's "four-door sports car" performance are an increasingly fading memory, and the car doesn't hold much of a premium advantage over other choices that it might once have had.
Problem number one for the Maxima: the Altima. These days, Nissan's mainstream sedan can outdo the Maxima in just about every regard. Of course, one needs to order a well-equipped Altima V6 in order to make this happen, whereas the Maxima comes standard with a V6 as well as more features and space. The Maxima must therefore rely mostly on its ability to provide upscale features at a price that undercuts equally equipped luxury cars by thousands. However, a so-equipped Maxima touches $35,000. We're not sure people will be willing to throw down that much change for a Nissan, when the same amount (or less) could net a decently stocked Acura TSX or TL or an Infiniti G35.
True, the 2008 Nissan Maxima continues to offer a respectable combination of performance, luxury and space. There's nothing overtly wrong with it, but for a premium, larger midsize sedan, there are simply better and/or wiser choices available. Besides the Maxima's sibling, shoppers should also consider the Chevrolet Malibu and Honda Accord, which are bigger and redesigned this year, as well as the Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT Limited and Volkswagen Passat. Large sedans like the Chrysler 300, Hyundai Azera and Toyota Avalon should also be considered for those attracted to the Maxima's size. The aforementioned TL, TSX and G35 also deserve a look if luxury is a priority.
Nissan's flagship is set to be replaced next year, but for now, and with so many smarter choices available, the Maxima just isn't as enticing as it once was.
Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options
The 2008 Nissan Maxima midsize sedan is offered in two trims, the sport-oriented 3.5 SE trim and the luxury-oriented 3.5 SL trim. Standard features on the SE include 18-inch alloy wheels, side skirts, a rear spoiler, a fixed SkyView glass-paneled roof, a power driver seat, tilt-telescoping steering wheel, dual-zone automatic climate control, keyless ignition/entry and an eight-speaker stereo with a CD player and an auxiliary audio jack. The SL trim trades the SE's sporty appearance for more creature comforts. Gone are the 18-inch wheels, sport side skirts and rear spoiler. In their place are 17-inch wheels, a Bose audio system with an in-dash six-CD/MP3 changer and satellite radio, leather seating, a power front passenger seat, and heated front seats and exterior mirrors.
Most of the SL's extra features can be added to the SE trim via the Sensory Package. The Platinum Edition Package available on both trims adds bi-xenon headlamps; rear parking assist; a power tilt-telescoping steering column; memory functions for driver seat, steering wheel and outside mirrors; heated steering wheel; Bluetooth and power-folding and auto-dimming outside mirrors. A navigation system and power sunroof are stand-alone options.
Powertrains and Performance
The powertrain of the 2008 Nissan Maxima is a carry-over from the previous year's model. Nissan's award-winning VQ-series V6 and Xtronic CVT (continuously variable transmission) team up to propel the 3,600-pound midsize sedan. The result is a maximum of 255 horsepower and 252 pound-feet of torque sent to the front wheels. Despite no option of a manual gearbox, the CVT offers pseudo ratios for use when additional control is desired. More realistic 2008 EPA estimates rate the Maxima at 19 mpg city and 25 mpg highway.
Antilock disc brakes with brake assist, traction control, front seat-mounted side-impact airbags and side-impact head curtain airbags represent the Maxima's key standard safety features. Stability control is a stand-alone option. In the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's frontal crash testing, the Nissan Maxima received a top five-star rating for the driver and four-star rating for the front passenger. Side-impact testing resulted in a four-star rating for both the front and rear seats. When tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the Nissan Maxima produced results of "Good" in the frontal offset test but a second-lowest "Marginal" in the side impact test.
Interior Design and Special Features
It may be a midsize sedan, but the 2008 Nissan Maxima's interior feels downright cavernous front and rear. The standard strip of glass in the roof known as SkyView aids that airy feel considerably. The front seats are wide and accommodating, though finding an optimal driving position can be difficult. The dashboard features a sleek and modern design. In years past, the center stack was marred by some poor ergonomics, but Nissan has largely rectified the situation, and controls are very user-friendly. One of our lingering complaints about the Maxima's cabin is the mediocre materials quality. For a car priced at the $30,000 mark, there are still a few too many low-grade plastics and fit and finish miscues. A 15.5-cubic-foot trunk plus split-folding 60/40 rear seats reinforce the larger-than-average midsize sedan theme.
Driving Impressions
The 2008 Nissan Maxima accelerates, brakes and handles well, but it's no longer the track star of its class. The car is brisk off the line with a broad midrange that the CVT fully exploits, but as it's a high-horsepower front-wheel-drive vehicle, some torque steer is evident under hard acceleration. Unlike other CVTs, Nissan's unit does a fine job of ensuring the engine works in the most effective range of its power band. Those looking to row their own gears will be disappointed, however, as no manual transmission is offered.
The suspension is tuned more for comfort than spirited road exercises, and steering feel is merely good under normal driving conditions. Nor does going with the "sporty" SE trim help matters. The SE's 18-inch wheels and tires, while larger and V-rated, are still all-season tires like those the SL wears. Moreover, the components and tuning of the steering, suspension and brake systems of the SL all match the SE's. Simply put, the use of the words "fun-to-drive" and "Nissan Maxima" in the same sentence is largely a thing of the past.

Thank you, cello! After draining rather juicy decant that was so kindly sent to me by PerfumedLady I knew I had to get the biggest bottle I could. While I love and admire No 5, Eau Premiere is just so much more versatile and easier to wear. If you ever might be interested in getting a bigger bottle, one can be snagged from Ebay for $50-60. You do smell lovely, by the way .

Well, an airline did recently allow a man to fly in a bra and panties, so a little flashing without consequences isn't surprising.

Reader's view: Identification, treatment lacking for dyslexia
In the Oct. 28 News Tribune, Lisa Carsrud wrote in her commentary how dyslexia is hurting our children (Local View: "Dyslexia: What no one knows is hurting our children").By: Thomas Strewler, Duluth News Tribune
In the Oct. 28 News Tribune, Lisa Carsrud wrote in her commentary how dyslexia is hurting our children (Local View: "Dyslexia: What no one knows is hurting our children").
Dyslexia does affect 1 in 5 to 1 in 7 school-aged children and is present in about 12 percent of the general population, according to the International Dyslexia Association.
Dyslexia has been identified since the late 1800s and has been extensively researched for the past 60 years in the U.S. and worldwide. Dyslexia is a specific learning disability that is neurologically based, runs in families and affects an individual's ability to read, spell and write due to phonological processing issues. It also affects reading comprehension and reading fluency. Dyslexia is found in countries across the world and in all socioeconomic classifications.
Dyslexia research clearly has shown the neurological influences for dyslexia; it also has identified clear means for treating dyslexia through multisensory, structured language, and direct-instruction approaches. Research has further shed light on the social, emotional and psychological impacts on individuals with dyslexia. In addition, dyslexic individuals are demonstrating strengths in certain areas of reasoning.
Dyslexia is a lifelong concern and affects individuals on a continuum of severity. Despite this there are many who have been successful, as Carsrud shared.
Information is readily available about dyslexia through books, research, articles and organizations like the International Dyslexia Association, the National Center for Learning Disabilities and LD online.
Unfortunately, Carsrud was correct that dyslexia is not being diagnosed nor are services being provided for many school-aged children. Many individuals with dyslexia and families of children with dyslexia struggle to find appropriate treatment. Providers are available privately but are at times difficult to find or may not be available in some communities.
Dyslexia will continue to be a concern for thousands of individuals of all ages. Awareness of dyslexia and supporting its identification and treatment are necessary.

After spending a gap year in Guatemala, junior Anna Folz was inspired to start the student-run group Impulso, which aims to provide solar stoves to Guatemalan families so they can cook food with the heat of the sun rather than using costly firewood.
Swim to Success, F&M SLAM and Squash ACES are afterschool programs that combine mentorship and sports training to help local elementary and middle school students build skills and confidence. The programs also benefit F&M students, teaching them how to identify and develop leadership traits in others. And the volunteer work is vital to the School District of Lancaster.
Building on ongoing efforts to encourage responsible drinking, Franklin & Marshall College will launch a series of initiatives in January 2014 to help students make informed decisions when it comes to alcohol.
Franklin & Marshall College has appointed an experienced attorney with a strong background in higher education law to serve as the College's first general counsel.
Two strategic leaders will join Franklin & Marshall's offices of College Advancement and Communications to support the College's efforts to ensure the institution maintains a strong position among its many stakeholders.
Four Franklin & Marshall College faculty, from the fields of American studies, history, government and public policy, reflect on why the assassination of President John F. Kennedy 50 years ago continues to resonate for so many Americans.
Led by first-year student Layla Thomas, F&M Options: The Other Night Life, aims to expand the number of alcohol-free social opportunities for students.
New College House Don Dean Hammer told the Common Hour audience on Nov. 21 that since opening at Franklin & Marshall College in 2005, the College Houses have transformed the campus culture, expanded classroom experiences, and enhanced the college curriculum.
Laura Fiore will become the director of Human Resources for the College effective December 1. She is currently serving as the associate director of Human Resources and has been with Franklin & Marshall since 2007.
Nydia Manos, recently of Goucher College in the Baltimore area, has joined Franklin & Marshall College's Faculty Center as operations coordinator.

I recently attended the State Candidates Forum sponsored by the League of Women Voters and was disappointed by Jason Conger's unethical antics.
There were four candidates on the stage, two for the Oregon House and two for the Oregon Senate. Conger is Bend's Republican incumbent in the House. The moderator posed a series of questions which each of the four candidates was to answer within 90 seconds. Time-keepers raised a yellow card when15 seconds remained and a red card when time was up. On his first answer, Conger talked past the red card; not a significant or unique violation, but a harbinger of what was to come.
While answering a later question, Conger pivoted from a legitimate reply to challenge Nathan Hovekamp about his so called "attack ad" that claimed Conger had voted for special interests. Conger stood self-righteously over a seated and fittingly silent Hovekamp, glaring down at him until his time ran out. Conger's actions clearly violated the forum rules. The moderator should have told Conger "you're out of order," but he said nothing. Conger evidently realized that he could get away with cheating. He immediately blew off the next question and directly challenged Hovekamp a second time, standing over him and glaring down as a long silence dragged on. Again, the moderator said nothing. Finally, Hovekamp responded by citing two bills Conger had voted for. At that point, the moderator mumbled something about this not being a debate and ended the discussion. I thought I was watching yet another NFL game with substitute referees. (By the way, if you think that Conger's first challenge was spontaneous instead of calculated, then I have a bridge I want to sell you. Conger may be ethically challenged, but he is clever, and he is not stupid.)
Later on the moderator asked an unintentionally ironic question: "Why is there so little civility in the Legislature?" He could have looked in the mirror and at Jason Conger to answer it for himself. Civility requires voluntarily adhering to rules of conduct, which are fairly administered by competent moderators, referees, or chairpersons. Civility, like fair play, is undermined when the media, supporters, and general public reward or ignore incivility or cheating, instead of holding the offender's feet to the fire. The Bend Bulletin, which has endorsed Conger, rewarded him with headlines for his performance and nary a word about his unethical behavior.

The Ohio State Highway Patrol has joined a new alert system to help keep drivers safe.
Drivers can sign up online and then receive text alerts on their phones, warning them of accidents or road closures.
OSHP officials say they like the Nixle system. When a trooper sees a crash or a problem area, they send the information to Nixle, which in turn warns drivers.
The system is up-to-the-minute, and uses a geo-locating system to determine if drivers are close to the affected area, giving them time to exit the highway and find another way.
But troopers do have one important piece of advice for drivers:
"You need to make sure you are paying attention to the roadway. If you do get a text alert, maybe have a passenger read the text as you're driving down the roadway," said Sgt. Rick Vitte.
To sign up for Nixle alerts, click here. It's free.

Emergency Care for an Accidental AmputationTopic OverviewAmputation is the removal of a body part. This can be done by a health professional in a hospital setting, such as when a foot must be amputated because of diabetes complications. But amputation may also happen during an accident. An amputation may be complete (the body part is completely removed or cut off) or partial (much of the body part is cut off, but it remains attached to the rest of the body). In some cases amputated parts can be successfully reattached. The success of the reattachment depends on:
What to doIf you witness an amputation:
Care for the completely amputated body part
Care for the part of the body where the amputation happened
Care for a partially amputated body part

Help--I hope this isn't too much of a noob question...
I'm trying to get Dragon Dictate on my iPad, but every time I attempt to install it, I get the same error messages: that I've already downloaded it, and that I need to log into the iTunes Store on my pc.
Well, I've plugged my iPad into my pc, and logged into iTunes. The Dragon Dictate icon is there in my Purchases...but I still get the same messages.
It seems like the next step would be to drag the DD icon over to my iPad...but there is not recognition of the iPad in my devices list. Is that the missing step? That iTunes doesn't recognize my iPad?
The iPad doesn't appear on my desktop or Finder window either, so I can't drag it there.
Thanks all, for your help.
Do I need an update? Seems like I'm just one frustrating step away from getting DD on my iPad...
