Nature - Europe's Enchanted Lands
(Save 13%)
Program 1: Land of the Falling Lakes - In the heart of Croatia lies a hidden treasure--Plitvice Lakes National Park. This extraordinary natural preserve is a fairy tale world that has lain undisturbed for centuries. That is, until Civil War tore the Balkans apart a decade ago. But, Plitvice has an almost supernatural ability to regenerate and heal itself. The restless landscape is constantly in motion, continually building new waterfalls and pools, merging its elements to create a place like no other. In this spellbinding episode from the award-winning PBS series, witness the savagery and splendor of nature that has created a kingdom formed, and ruled, by water. Here, one of the continent's largest population of brown bears, packs of wolves and lynx, and a host of other rare and remarkable creatures that have all but disappeared elsewhere, seek safe haven. Each season brings its own unique beauty to one of the last ancient European forests and an unparalleled world of crystal-clear lakes that flow into one another through a series of spectacular terraces and cascading waterfalls. It is a land of wonders. Program 2: Ireland - From its ocean shores and wooded glens to its isolated mountains, Ireland's breathtaking landscapes seem untouched by time. Narrated by Jason O'Mara, this enchanting episode from public television's honored natural history series etches a vivid portrait of the Emerald Isle, graced with a host of plants and animals that thrive in one of the most varied landscapes in Europe. Rare native flowers, colonies of sea birds, dolphins and peregrine falcons, and the legendary racehorses of the Irish National Stud are only part of Ireland's fascinating story. Ireland's timeless beauty has survived the ages. But, what is old to us is still young to the land, which has been transformed again and again. Sheathed in ice; sculpted by retreating glaciers; covered in vast forests of oak; reshaped by human history; Ireland's story is still unfolding.

Nature - Bears (DVD)
(Save 13%)
Go face-to-face with the Grizzly � Twice! Approx 112 Minutes
Program 1: Showdown at Grizzly River - During most Alaskan summers, the McNeil River Falls is swimming with salmon � enough to feed all the grouchy grizzly bears looking to fatten up after six months of slumber. But this year is different. The salmon is scarce, and the competition for the best fishing sports is fierce. Where does that leave Toughie, the impetuous little female cub who�s spending her last year at her mother�s side? As mom competes with Woofie, Creek Bear, and other alpha males to catch the remaining fish, Toughie watches and waits, hopefully learning enough to survive the coming years alone. Their showdown at Grizzly River is a natural story of breathtaking beauty and spine-tingling confrontation.
Program 2: Walking With Giants: The Grizzlies of Siberia - Who says that given the chance, a ten-feet-tall, 1500-pound grizzly bear would tear you limb from limb? Certainly not naturalists Charlie Russell and Maureen Enns. They contend that this growing predator is an intelligent social animal that isn�t instinctively hostile to human beings. To prove their point, they go to Siberia�s Kamchatka Peninsula to live with a group of grizzlies that have never been with people before. Unexpectedly, they become foster parents to three orphaned cubs, hoping to fatten them up and teach them the skills they need to survive in this bear-bite-bear world.

Nature - Waddlers and Paddlers (DVD)
(Save 13%)
Dive into the world of penguins and sea otters. (Approx 112 minutes)
Program 1: The World of Penguins - What bird in its right mind would give up flying to learn how to swim? Penguins did that millions of years ago, but they have been a wild success ever since, becoming graceful swimmers and adapting themselves to a wide range of environments, from the bitter cold of the Antarctic to the scorching heat of the equator. While they stiffly and comically waddle when making their way across land, this engrossing program helps you to look past the stereotypes to see the resourcefulness of these "strange birds." Every penguin species seems to have its own challenges to overcome, but none is more amazing that that of the Emperor penguins, who travel to the polar ice region every year to mate. Taking off to find food, the females leave their eggs with the more blubbery males, who spend the dark, Antarctic winter keeping them warm-without having a thing to eat. This fascinating and delightful program is as refreshing as a blast of Artic air.
Program 2: A Sea Otter Story: Warm Hearts and Cold Water - The sea otter learns everything from its mom, who is among the most patient and nurturing parents in the wild. But what happens if a furry, playful little otter pup loses its mother? This program takes you to California's Monterey Bay Aquarium, where a special group is trying to train otter orphans for survival in the wild. Staff members serve as surrogate moms, nuzzling these charming creatures, showing them how to dive for food, and teaching them the otter practice of using rocks as tools. Six to eight months later, they release them back into the wild and hope for the best. But can pups, no matter how smart, really learn from humans? Will they eventually transmit that knowledge to their offspring? Like a great thriller, this touching story keeps you in its grip waiting for the answers.

Unfortunately, this endangered creature may be making its last stand in habitats like the bamboo forest in China's "Mountains of the Sleeping Dragon." NATURE's George Page leads you through this misty and exotic land, catching the panda in its most frequent activity; foraging for, and crunching on, bamboo shoots. China has named these gentle animals a national treasure, and this intimate and charming close-up shows you why.
Program 2: The Panda Baby - The San Diego Zoo faced a bear of a challenge: becoming the first place outside China to sucessfully breed and raise a panda in captivity. Would the zoo be able to gain the full cooperation of panda experts at China's Wolong Conservation Center? And what would it do about its potential father bear - an older panda with little interest in procreation? Actor Matthew Modine tells a fascinating, cross-cultural, inter-species story that offers dramatic twists and turns as well as surprising insights into panda mating, reproduction, and "child care." In bringing up baby, the zoo raises hopes and fears for the future of all endangered species.

Pause and rebound: sensory control of cholinergic signaling in the striatum
Pause and rebound: sensory control of cholinergic signaling in the striatum

Cholinergic interneurons have emerged as one of the key players controlling network functions in the striatum. Extracellularly recorded cholinergic interneurons acquire characteristic responses to sensory stimuli during reward-related learning, including a pause and subsequent rebound in spiking. However, the precise underlying cellular mechanisms have remained elusive. Here, we review recent advances in our understanding of the regulation of cholinergic interneuron activity. We discuss evidence of mechanisms that have been proposed to underlie sensory responses, including antagonistic actions by dopamine, recurrent inhibition via local interneurons, and an intrinsically generated membrane hyperpolarization in response to excitatory inputs. The review highlights outstanding questions and concludes with a model of the sensory responses and their downstream effects through dynamic acetylcholine receptor activation.

Turner was unsure of the exact nature of the threat, but he did say that it could have been a direct result of Friday's shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School that left 26 people dead plus the shooter.
"And this particular threat may have had something to do with the Mayan Calendar thing too," Turner said.
Some people believe the Mayan Calendar predicts that the world will come to an end on Dec. 21.
The lockdown occurred after a bomb threat caused the evacuation of Princeton Senior High School on Monday. That incident is also being investigated by the Princeton Police Department, Turner said.
"We take all of these threats very seriously," he said.
There are about 1,000 students at Princeton Senior High School and 536 at Princeton Middle School, Turner said. There were also around 300 students at the vocational center when the lockdown was initiated.
There was no lockdown initiated at Montcalm High School, he said.
"We had officers there," Turner said.

A week of records here. Mon: 10K Tues: off Wed: 9.4K Thurs: off Fri: wanted to run but no time Sat: 18K My longest run ever. I actually stopped my ipod at 18 k then ran 2 more km home at a cool-down pace. I was stiff and sore so I stretched for about 20 minutes and felt great the next day! Sun:8 K Total: 28 miles (don't know why it totals in miles, but...) Longest week ever!! I think 18k is too long given my current weekly distances, but I really feel that since I've been running steady for 3 years, I have built up a strong enough base that I can start to push harder. Let's see what this ol' body can do! And I am thinking of a half in September. Am I crazy?

Just A Cylon Girl Stuck In This Big World... by Alessandra Torresani Follow my blog with bloglovin
Geek of the Week
Larry David
After last night's season premiere of Curb Your Enthusiasm, I found it only necessary I make Larry David the geek of the week! Even though it has been months since Larry has been on my TV screen, it feels like he never left. He gives me such anxiety for the entire 30 minutes. And I LOVE every anxiety ridden minute! Larry David is a house hold name so I won't even discuss all the incredible projects he has worked on. There is absolutely nothing better though than seeing him actually work in front of the camera. This is going to be the best season yet. Let's all cross our fingers that Larry brings back David Schwimmer this season…talk about a Dream Boat!!!!

This article discusses the question of exactly where to locate the outer edge of a wood-framed double wall for super-insulated building construction. Added details discuss structural load capability of an offset wood framed wall, and insulation and vapor barrier placement on a wood framed wall. Sketch at page top and accompanying text are reprinted/adapted/excerpted with permission from Solar Age Magazine - editor Steven Bliss.

The text below paraphrases, quotes-from, updates, and comments an original article from Solar Age Magazine and written by Steven Bliss.
The questions above referred to "Double-Wall Houses," in Solar Age Magazine, December 1982 and were answered the next April. The questions and the detailed answers by Steven Bliss remain current today. Readers should also refer to the wood framed double wall details in the sketch below.
1. In the Hughes double-wall wood frame structure design, the double wall overhangs the floor platform, bringing the outside surface of the exterior wall sheathing in line with the outside of the building's foundation wall below. (See sketch at left.)
The floor framing is set back from the outer edge of the foundation wall by 3 1/2 to 4 inches. The overhanging section of the double wall is supported by short 2x4's (red in the sketch) toenailed between the top of the foundation sill plate and the bottom of the plywood plate (green in the sketch).
Setting the load-bearing (inner wall) back from the band joist (rim joist) a few inches will, in most cases, not affect the sizing (nor load bearing ability) of the joists (and structure).
Hughes uses a treated-wood foundation system, ordinarily framing with 2x6 lumber for one story and 2x8 lumber for two-story construction.
A brick veneer would need to be supported by an additional thickness of foundation, whether the wall itself is wood or masonry. This section of the building foundation is often offset so that the brick wythe veneer can be carried down to or below grade. (Don't forget termite shields where appropriate and don't forget to provide weep openings in the veneer wall).
This double wall framing system allows the air/vapor barrier to run continuously between floors - around band joists and sill plates, reducing building air leakage and simplifying building sealing. The spaces outside the band joists are filled with insulation, keeping the vapor barrier towards the warm side of the insulation.
Here we include solar energy, solar heating, solar hot water, and related building energy efficiency improvement articles reprinted/adapted/excerpted with permission from Solar Age Magazine - editor Steven Bliss.

Assisting Those in Need: Amigour Houses Carmel Fire Victims
January 16, 2011 / 11 Shvat 5771
In the aftermath of the devastating Carmel Fire, Amigour, a subsidiary of the Jewish Agency for Israel, has completed placing 20 mobile homes in a new neighborhood in Kibbutz Beit Oren, located in the heart of the Carmel mountain range. These structures will serve families whose homes were burned during the fire.
Amigour is overseeing these activities under the auspices of the Government of Israel's Ministry of Housing.
The operation included transferring 20 buildings used by the evacuees of Gush Katif. The activities were carried out mostly at night. Presently, construction crews are renovating the buildings with the goal of being completed and ready for families to move in by the end of the month. The mobile homes will house 21 families (80 people).
Amigour will continue to manage the site for next two years until the families will be able to move back into permanent housing.
"Once again, as during the Second Lebanon War and the disengagement from Gaza, Amigour has been at the forefront, ready and able to act as an agent to assist those in need on behalf of the Jewish Agency for Israel," said Yuval Frankel, CEO of Amigour.

Published: Nov. 11, 2010
Updated: Nov. 11, 2010
The brachial plexus is a network of nerves that sends signals from the spinal chord to the shoulder, arm, and hand. These fragile nerves can become damaged, leading to a disconnect in the messages being sent.
Injuries can occur from trauma, from a fall or accident or direct violence. Brachial plexus injuries may be associated with childbirth. Nerves can be severed or stretched, and in severe cases may be torn from their roots in the neck.
If you or your physician suspect that you have a brachial plexus injury, you should seek specialty evaluation as soon as possible -- preferably within one month following the injury.
Your doctor will review your medical history and perform a comprehensive physical examination. Sometimes, additional tests are recommended, such as a nerve test, and MRI, or other imaging studies.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques, which use magnetic field and radio waves, may help with diagnosis. Additionally, x-rays may be taken and electromyography (EMG), an evaluation of the skeletal muscles' electrical activity, may be performed.
Often brachial plexus injury can heal with time and therapy -- a process that could take weeks or months. However, when an injury is unlikely to improve, surgery may be recommended.
Duke Orthopaedics treats brachial plexus injuries at locations throughout North Carolina, including Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill.

Palo Alto looks to retain fraud hotline

Although $2,600 is not a lot of money, given the low effective use of this resource--it seems like too much to operate a telephone account and an answering service.
Without some sense of the loss to the City by these employees, this topic seems very vague, as presented. No doubt the Auditor is going to avoid providing any meaningful evidence to the public that involves improper activities on the part of City employees.
on Apr 11, 2013 at 11:22 am
The real benefit of the hotline is that they can figure out who is squealing on them, and retaliate quickly before the allegations leave City Hall. This is the perfect system to silence whistleblowers. Only a foolish employee is going to rat out a boss or co-worker with this hotline.
on Apr 11, 2013 at 11:59 am
The Hotline sounds worthwhile, but at a cost of $450 for each time this vendor logged a call, perhaps the City should open the RFQ to more bidders or renegotiate to a per call billing structure.
on Apr 11, 2013 at 3:50 pm
Based on a couple of the comments made, people seem to think they know everything about anonymous hotlines.
Hotlines do not just consist of a telephone and answering service. Usually these systems are accompanied with a case management system. As far as the comment about not providing meaningful evidence - these are confidential cases that are being handled. Therefore they will be treated as such.
From what I gather, this hotline is intended to provide employees with an additional route to report fraud, waste, and abuse. It is designed to increase transparency to the publwic. I don't know what world you're living in, but this hotline is definitely not a system to "silence whistleblowers." Many organizations and other cities already use simlar systems and they work efficiently.

Medvedev Urges Consolidation of Defense Industry
Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev at the military-industrial conference in Moscow

- Russia Remains Key Arms Supplier for India – Rosoboronexport
MOSCOW, March 20 (RIA Novosti) - Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev called on Wednesday for the further consolidation of the defense industry, calling it a key to the country's economic development.
Priority should be given to the sector's integration along all lines, he told a military-industrial conference in Moscow, dedicated to the 60th anniversary of the establishment of the Military-Industrial Commission.
"You can't build a modern army and navy just like that, in a backyard shed," he said.
As of today there are 61 integrated structures in the defense industry, comprising 771 large enterprises, which account for over 74 percent of defense industry output.
By 2020, a new-look defense industry is to be formed with about 40 large science and production associations.
The defense industry is expected to grow at a rate of 10 percent in 2013-15, Medvedev said, stressing that its development is crucial for national economic development as a whole.
He underscored the importance of state support for innovative projects at all stages.
"We hold serious positions on the world arms market, being the world's second largest seller by volume, but it is not easy to keep that place: We need to move forward all the time," Medvedev said.
Russia's ambitious 2011-2020 arms procurement program stipulates the upgrade of up to 11 percent of military equipment annually and will allow the country to increase the share of modern weaponry in the Armed Forces to 70 percent by 2020. Russia allocated about 908 billion rubles (about $30 bln) on state defense order spending in 2012.

Former Omaha Public Schools interim Superintendent Virginia Moon may land a $1,000-a-day job consulting for the Learning Community.
The job could pay Moon and another consultant, a pediatrician, up to $72,000 each for 72 days of work.
Tonight, members of the Learning Community Council will vote on a proposal to hire Moon to work with superintendents in 11 metro-Omaha school districts to develop a plan for expanding early childhood education.
The council will also consider hiring Omaha pediatrician Laura Jana, at the same pay rate, to assist with the plan.
Virginia Moon
She is in line to be paid $1,000 a day up to 72 days as Learning Community consultant.
She previously was paid:
Base as OPS superintendent: $275,000
Base in final years as Ralston superintendent: $150,222
Base in final years as interim Broken Bow superintendent: $118,500
If you go
What: Learning Community Council Meeting
When: 6 tonight
Where: UNO Thompson Center, Bootstrapper Room, 6705 Dodge St.
Critics are questioning the cost and need for the consultants, but Learning Community leaders defend the proposed spending.
Chris Proulx, president of the Omaha Education Association, said school districts have enough expertise to craft the plan without consultants.
"Gosh, I can go give you 15 teachers who will do it just for pizza," Proulx said. "We'll put together a plan that will be as good as one or two consultants can come up with, probably even better."
Proulx said he supports early childhood programs, but it appears from this proposal "what we're doing is looking to put more money into the pockets of adults and not in the form of resources to support kids."
Ted Stilwill, chief executive officer of the Learning Community, said the pay is reasonable given the complex task and the experience and expertise of Moon and Jana.
The plan will lay out how to spend between $2 million and $3 million a year to serve children in parts of metro Omaha with high concentrations of poverty.
Moon is an experienced leader, and the planning will require the right touch to bring about collaboration between districts that still are not entirely cooperative under the 4�-year-old education entity, Stilwill said.
"She has a relationship, quite frankly, with the superintendents, and she has credibility, good background knowledge as well," he said. "So she's kind of an ideal facilitator for this."
Stilwill said Moon isn't likely to work all 72 days in the contract term — July 1, 2013, to July 31, 2014 — potentially a $72,000 expenditure. Even so, Stilwill said, the pay rate is not out of line.
"I understand that, that would seem a lot when you put together a daily rate, but for consulting work in education, with her background and experience, that's not a particularly high rate," he said.
He said Jana's pay would be a bargain given her credentials, experience and understanding of child development.
Jana is an author and owner of the Primrose School of Legacy child care center in Omaha. She served as a consultant to noted pediatrician Benjamin Spock and co-founded The Dr. Spock Company — one of the first online health sites. She is media spokesperson for the American Academy of Pediatrics, and national news media frequently quote her on parenting issues. She also is a blogger for The World-Herald's health website, Livewellnebraska.com.
"She could probably command quite a bit more than that, but just for convenience's sake, we set it at the same level," Stilwill said.
Jana said she believes the pay is close to the median of what similar consultants receive.
She said having Moon's insight and expertise, including her knowledge of area school systems and her relationship with the superintendents, is invaluable.
As for herself, Jana said, she already is heavily involved with early childhood issues nationally and has wanted an opportunity to get more involved in Omaha. "They're going to get a whole lot more time than they've allotted," she said.
Moon said she's eager to help devise a solution to help raise achievement for children in poverty.
"It will certainly take me less time to get up to speed, because I know the community and the early-childhood conversation and the players," she said.
She said Learning Community officials researched consultant wages to determine the pay rate, which she said is reasonable.
During her year as interim OPS superintendent, Moon was paid a base salary of $275,000 a year plus benefits. She is not, however, receiving any retirement benefits through the OPS retirement system.
She is eligible for at least $6,000 a month in retirement benefits through the Nebraska school retirement system for her years of service in other Nebraska school districts.
Moon previously served two years as interim superintendent in the Broken Bow public schools, where she earned an average of $118,500 a year.
Before that, she spent 11 years as superintendent of the Ralston Public Schools.
During her last three years at Ralston, Moon was paid a base salary of $150,222.
She previously worked in Papillion-La Vista and smaller districts.
Lorraine Chang, chairwoman of the Learning Community Council, said the consulting proposal is a response to lawmakers expanding the mission of the education cooperative.
Lawmakers last session gave the council explicit authority to fund early-childhood education programs for poor children.
Lawmakers further directed the superintendents of the 11 member districts to submit a plan to the council for implementing and administering such programs.
Jana and Moon would fill "very specific roles that are going to be moving us forward toward getting this early childhood plan in place as quickly as possible," Chang said.
The consultants would only get the full daily rate if they worked the whole day, she said.
They would be reimbursed for local mileage. Jana would receive a travel budget of $10,000 "to meet with various national organizations or attend conferences or events that are of direct interest to the Learning Community," the proposed contract says.
Neither woman would receive any fringe benefits from the Learning Community.
Mike Pate, a Millard School Board member who serves on the council, said hiring consultants is "ridiculous."
Pate said lawmakers assigned responsibility for drawing up the plan to superintendents, not consultants.
"In this particular case, Ted and Lorraine and whoever else have decided to take the initiative to hire these consultants without the input and a formal recommendation from the superintendents advisory committee," he said.
Superintendents on the advisory committee have not met to discuss the proposal, he said.
Gretna Public Schools Superintendent Kevin Riley, liaison for the superintendents committee, said superintendents have talked informally about the plan and favor having Moon facilitate the project.
Riley said the project would require too much time for the superintendents to do the job right. They will be busy with the start of school, he said.
He said they were not involved in setting the pay rate.
World-Herald staff writer Julie Anderson contributed to this report.

Cartons help 'nourish noggins'
In August, children's book publisher and distributor Scholastic Inc. will begin a "Milk for Bones, Books for Brains...It's Udderly Brilliant" program with school foodservice directors and dairy processors throughout the United States.
The program involves the use of creative educational messages flexo-printed in one color into the side panels of 8-oz paperboard milk cartons from International Paper.Aimed at "nourishing the noggins" of pre-kindergarten to secondary school students the August 2003 - June 2004 National School Milk Program will encourage learning reading and health awareness through milk consumption. Twelve different side panels will include well-known Scholastic "properties" such as Goosebumps Ricky Ricotta and McGrowl. Printed copy will direct students to visit www.scholastic.com/readit, for educational activities and fun. At the site teachers can register to win a box of Scholastic books valued at $250 each month and find lesson plans and classroom activity ideas."It gives us a wonderful opportunity to reach millions of children about the importance of reading and to introduce them to some of our newest and most exciting properties" says Jennifer Pasanen vice president of marketing for New York NY-based Scholastic. Previous IP milk carton side-panel educational programs included one for Binney & Smith's Crayola crayons (see packworld.com/go/c078.
The cartons are produced at IP's Beverage Packaging converting facilities in Framingham MA Turlock CA and Kalamazoo MI using Fortress Liquid Packaging Board from IP's bleached board mill in Pine Bluff AR. Board structural details and thicknesses were considered proprietary. —JBComments(0)

My Kafkaesque life in Taiwan
Taiwan's Kingdom of bananas
I was reading your posts and looking at the pictures and then I reached the ice cream and stared at it for several minutes.
Then I came back to earth and started reading again. Hahaha.
Not particularly interesting, but would be nice if you're just seeking a place to walk around and take some pictures.
@Gnetch: You like ice cream, ah? I'll treat you, if you come here. But don't stare at it, eat it :P
@Sinc3ra: Haha.. then if this place is not interesting to you, you should come and see the 100 other generic Taiwanese small towns with not much historic buildings. Chishan has a lot to offer compared to most towns of this size :)
Hi there; my wife is headed there with her mom and niece soon. Mom grew up in Chisan, wife's first time visiting.
Very nice photos, useful information. I'm going to Cishan/Qishan on Sunday...
@Steven: Sorry for my delayed reply. I hope you had a nice time there.

be-er-e'-lim (be'er 'elim; phrear tou Aileim, literally "well of Elim"): Probably lay to the North of Moab, answering to Eglaim in the South (Isaiah 15:8). It may possibly be identical with BEER (1); but there is no certainty.

Waves of blackberry jam, cassis, and dark chocolate are brightened with zesty acidity and the sweetness level is very high." 93 Points, Wine Enthusiast

COLUMBIA — Defenders loom like skyscrapers in front of the 6-foot-1-inch point guard. A sharp crossover to his left, a spin to his right, and he's in the lane. He leaps into the remaining giants and floats a shot that arcs over outstretched hands and into the net.
Cougars point guard continues to overcome obstacles

Set an Email Reminder for NFC Wild Card Game: Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers
When: Saturday, January 5, 2013
This is a re-match of last weekend's game which saw the Vikings win to get themselves into the playoffs. This game will be different as the both teams will be playing for the chance to keep playing, and this time the game is in Green Bay. Obviously being at home helps the Packers, but it really helps that they are facing a Dome team in the Vikings. If the Vikings can use their superior running game to their advantage, and if they can disrupt Rodgers and the Packer's passing attack, then they should prevail again. But those are big ifs, against a strong football team used to playing outside in the cold.

Recycled Gold & Platinum
As part of our commitment to environmental responsibility, Brilliant Earth uses recycled precious metals in all of our fine jewelry. We guarantee our customers eco-friendly gold and platinum of the highest quality.
Metal mining – gold mining in particular – is one of the most environmentally destructive types of mining, with 20 tons of ore required to produce enough gold for a single ring.
What are the negative consequences of gold mining?
- Water pollution and environmental devastation due to dirty gold mining practices
- Poor safety standards for miners
- Inhumane labor practices
- Disregard for the rights and interests of indigenous peoples
What Can We Do?
We can choose recycled metals to decrease the global demand for newly mined gold. This will diminish the environmentally and socially destructive effects of dirty gold and other metal mining practices. Because precious metals can be recycled repeatedly with no degradation in quality, they are a naturally renewable resource.
Choose recycled precious metals to protect the
environment and reduce demand for dirty gold.
Brilliant Earth's reclaimed precious metals come from numerous post-consumer sources, including:
- Existing jewelry
- Industrial-use metals
- Electronics components
Every piece we cast is made with 100% recycled and re-refined precious metals. Because our reclaimed gold, silver, and platinum are re-refined back into their pure elements, they are of identical quality to newly mined metals.
Responsible Jewelry Production
Recycled precious metals are an important component of Brilliant Earth's commitment to the environment, but we also practice environmental responsibility throughout the jewelry production process.
For example, we employ a vapor emissions cleaning system and a rigorous process of cleaning liquid emissions to prevent contaminants from being released into the environment.
Additionally, we are committed to responsible labor practices. Many jewelers outsource their production to countries where labor and environmental standards are weak or poorly enforced. While this may reduce cost, it often comes at the expense of product quality as well as worker health and safety.
All Brilliant Earth jewelry is crafted in the United States with the strictest labor and safety practices.

Thanks! I haven't had a chance to see about hotels yet. I'm even starting to wonder if we'll drive part way and then stay. Mom will only get out of work at 4 so by the time we leave it could be around 5 and it's a 5-1/2 hr. drive.
Thanks Colleen. I have to request friday off, if I can get it off and I come I will stay at the Red roof I think
Thanks Collen I will look into these hotels. Will look into this option too.
Lahaska is very old town Pennsylvania with really good shopping. There are a couple good restaurants there but really require reservations. Any chance someone will be there early enough to grab a reservation for 30???

Some of the restaurants have the option to call ahead or to make a reservation online. This is the Peddler's Village Dining Information. Click on dining guide it brings up the restaurants then you can see phone numbers or online reservation information for the different restaurants.
I could make the phone calls to see who has room for our group...after that, If y'all wanna do this, I'll collect names and head counts and call it in before the meet. I need to put this out there first: Is our wonderful meet organizer already planning a gathering cause I am by no means trying to step on anybody's toes by stepping in like this~
