IEA questions impact of a non-binding renewable energy target for Europe
According to the IEA's Medium-Term Renewable Energy Market Report, the absence of a binding target raises questions about how effective the overall target can be as member states would be able to define their commitment to renewables voluntarily. The report adds that the framework overseeing these commitments lacks detail. Justin Wilkes, deputy chief executive officer of the European Wind ...

Amarillo, TX - Mass shootings strike a chord of grief and fear in the collective American mind, and today's rampage in Connecticut is only the latest in a string of similar incidents.
And unfortunately, sometimes it almost seems like they've become the norm.
So far this year, there have been 16 public shootings in the U.S. that claimed a total of 88 lives.
And Friday's marks the second-deadliest in our country's history - the deadliest mass shooting in the U.S. was the Virginia Tech shooting in 2007.
33 people were killed by a lone gunman, sparking an intense national debate about where the line of responsibility lies for our schools.
And since then, there have been at least 20 more school shootings in the U.S., with 5 just this year:
In February, a student at an Ohio high school admitted to shooting five fellow students, killing three.
Then just weeks later, a former student at Oikos University in Oakland killed six students and a school employee.
And two more cropped up just this summer - in July, 12 people were killed in the Aurora movie theater shooting.
Then in August, a white supremacist in Wisconsin went on a rampage at a Sikh temple, killing six before turning his gun on himself.
And just Tuesday, two people were killed at random by a complete stranger in an Oregon mall.
Although it may seem like public shootings are happening all the time, they've actually declined by about half in the last decade.
However, the Bureau of Justice Statistics says violent crime in general is on the rise.

Thread: Codes and Cats
Codes and Cats
My truck has the 4.3L engine and recently threw two codes (P0171 and P174), lean combustion bank 1 and bank 2. The codes have been cleared and the truck runs well. I've been told that I may need new 02 sensors eventually. So my question is how can I tell if the sensors that may need replacing are before or after the cats?
Since those are lean codes also look at the MAF. I know with my aftermarket Granetelli MAF (supposedly designed for cold air intakes) those are the codes that I will throw sometimes if coasting down long hills and it is solely related to the MAF (on mine). Granatelli even said it was an issue with some trucks with intakes and needed a different MAF to correct it. If it is the o2 sensor it would be before the cat. I am not exactly sure how to test the sensor itself. Being you are getting both p0171 and p0174 I would lean towards something before the o2 sensors.
Here is a description
A code P0171 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
- The MAF (Mass Air Flow) Sensor is dirty or faulty
Note: The use of "oiled" air filters may cause the MAF to become dirty if the filter is over-oiled. There is also an issue with some vehicles where the MAF sensors leak the silicone potting material used to protect the circuitry.
- There could be a vacuum leak downstream of the MAF sensor
- Possible cracked vacuum or PCV line/connection
- Faulty or stuck open PCV valve
- Failed or faulty oxygen sensor (bank 1, sensor 1)
- Sticking/plugged or failed fuel injector
- Low fuel pressure (possible plugged/dirty fuel filter!)
- Exhaust leak between engine and first oxygen sensor
Possible Solutions
A lot of times, cleaning the MAF sensor and finding/fixing vacuum leaks fix the problem. If you're on a tight budget, start there, but that may not be the fix for certain. So, possible solutions include:
- Clean the MAF sensor. Consult your service manual for it's location if you need help. I find it's best to take it off and spray it with electronics cleaner or brake cleaner. Make sure you are careful not to damage the MAF sensor, and make sure it's dry before reinstalling
- Inspect all vacuum and PCV hoses, replace/repair as required
- Inspect all hoses and connections in the air intake system
- Inspect and/or test the intake manifold gaskets for leakage
- Check for a dirty fuel filter and proper fuel pressure
- Ideally you'll want to monitor short and long term fuel trims using an advanced scan tool
- If you have access, you may want to run a smoke test

Thanks for all the great information. It gives a lot to work with and has saved me some from "huntin' n' guessin' ". As an FYI I cleaned the MAF with CRC MAF cleaner less than 100 miles ago.
The problem is fixed and I wanted to say I learned a lesson ---> slow down and pay attention to what I'm doing. The problem was I had to pull the air tube of my K&N to get the MAF so I could clean it. The air tube has a rubber hose slip on on the back side of it. This goes to the top of the valve cover. I had to take this hose off and simply forgot to attach it. The truck runs fine now. And again, many thanks to @dsfloyd for the great write up!

After a long battle with the Refugee Review Tribunal who denied they were gay, our two friends got the word last month that the government granted them refugee status.
The couple courageously address the large December 3 marriage equality rally asking for the LGBTI community to support them. CAAH has been instrumental in campaigning for them to be recognized as refugees, with petitions to the Minister and addressing the RRT. It is another win for human and queer rights that this gay couple won against a bigoted and homophobic RRT and Immigration Minister. Come and plan for the next marriage rights rally and celebrate this victory with our friends.

Two people were killed Monday morning on Cheek Road, the same day Durham Police Chief Jose Lopez was set to speak to give a quarterly report to the Durham City Council.
Officers were dispatched to a shooting call shortly before 7 a.m. in the 2200 block of Cheek Road. When officers arrived, they found a woman dead inside a home. The second victim, a man, was taken to a hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
Police have not determined a motive at this time and no charges have been filed yet in the case.
"We're hopeful that someone who was driving by, it's a well-traveled road,on Cheek Road, may have seen something – maybe unusual or whatever to give us a call or to call CrimeStoppers," Lopez said.
When pressed about the double murder in light of the fact that he was about to give a report on the status of crime in Durham, Lopez said tersely:
"I understand where you're headed with it, to make it look like it's really bad out there, but at this point in time, we're dealing with this investigation.
"We're going to move on. We're hoping that people in the community who may have been driving by, because it's a heavily traveled road, are going to call the police with anything they may have seen. The little bits that they may have seen may help us."
Police cleared the scene around 5 p.m.
Dwight Gill, a neighbor who has lived in the area for about seven months, said, he heard "nine gunshots going off."
Marshall Holloway, a neighbor who lived next door to the house where the murders happened, said the neighborhood is "pretty quiet. It's very peaceful."
But, Gill said, "It doesn't make any difference where you're at. If something's going to go on, it's going to go on."
Anyone with information is asked to call Investigator S. Pate at (919) 560-4440. ext. 29332 or CrimeStoppers at (919) 683-1200.

NAC&U Seeks New Ways to Collaborate at Summer Institute 2014
Plenary Speakers, Teagle Presentations Advocate for New Ways of Addressing Teaching and Learning
In addition to welcoming a new member, the University of La Verne, to the consortium, NAC&U applauded its first group of campus ambassadors at the 2014 Summer Institute held June 25 – 27 at the University of Redlands in Redlands, CA.
The theme was "Creating Community through Collaboration" as NAC&U unrolled its new initiative aimed at promoting optimal collaboration within the consortium. NAC&U's operational assumption that "my student is your student" is the key to its success, for it enables members to leverage their collective assets to the benefit of all students – and thus all institutions. By introducing campus ambassadors – one or two key faculty from each member campus – to the consortium, NAC&U hopes to facilitate increased collaboration between its members, for the benefit of institutions, their faculty and their students.

Teacher at Blackburn mosque used 'torture positions' on pupils
1:00pm Saturday 21st July 2012 in News
A TEACHER at a Blackburn mosque has admitted using beatings and torture positions as a form of discipline on four pupils.
Irfan Patel, 33, pleaded guilty to four counts of cruelty to a person under the age of 16 at Preston Crown Court yesterday.
Using an Urdu translator to enter his plea, the teacher of several years, showed no emotion.
The court heard Patel used physical violence to discipline the boys aged between 10 and 16 between January 1, 2011 and October 19, 2011.
He used to strike the children around the back of the head and on the back with his fists during religious lessons at the mosque.
The court also heard Patel, of Pelham Street, Blackburn, wore a ring which he used to inflict more pain.
The assistant teacher also admitted forcing the children to adopt 'awkward' positions, including the chicken position, a well known torture tactic used in war zones.
Other positions included forcing the boys to crouch down while holding their ears and standing for long periods of time touching their toes.
Prosecutor Peter Horgan said: "This has been a particularly difficult case to present before the court.
"It has been difficult to obtain witnesses and gaining parental consent."
Patel was given on bail until sentencing on September 7, on the condition he has no contact with children under 16, except his own, and he does not take part in any religious teaching .
Judge Heather Lloyd said: "The fact I am granting you bail until September 7 should not be taken as an indication of the outcome or sentence of this case.
"The sentencing judge will have all means of sentence available including custody."
Speaking after the hearing Sgt John Rigby, from Lancashire Police's community cohesion unit, said: "All allegations of abuse involving young people are vigorously investigated by the police in co-operation with children services.
"Irfan Patel fell below the high standards expected with a voluntary teacher in charge of young people. His guilty plea has avoided four young people all under the age of eleven having to go through evidence at court.
"We will always prosecute these types of cases."

What looked like another American rout turned tense late at Muirfield Village, as the International team regrouped during a 90-minute weather delay to cut the deficit to just one point after the first six matches. It was ugly for the first couple hours, as they trailed in all six matches. But Nick Price's team charged back late in the gloaming in Columbus. The Americans, led by Tiger Woods and Matt Kuchar, hold a 3.5- to 2.5-point lead after six Four-ball matches.
Match One - International team wins, 1 up
Jason Day / Graham DeLaet vs. Hunter Mahan / Brandt Snedeker
The all-important lead-off match was probably the best match of the day. It was a critical point for the International side, which needed Columbus resident and Muirfield Village member Jason Day to get the better of Mahan and Snedeker. Day and DeLaet, a Canadian who may have been playing the best golf of all 24 competitors coming into the week, were probably the International's best chance for a point and Mahan-Snedeker was certainly a beatable duo.
The Internationals took a quick lead with a birdie on the opening hole, but it got changed dramatically after that. Mahan and Snedeker caught fire, sticking several approach shots into the damp and receptive Muirfield greens. They went from 1-down after one hole to 3-up after six holes and it appeared the rout may be on. But the delay let Day and DeLaet regroup, and they fought throughout the back nine to get things back to even on the 15th hole. The two teams exchanged blows over the final four holes as the match fluctuated from all square to Internationals 1-up. Day, however, slammed the door shut for the impressive comeback with a huge bomb of a birdie putt on the final hole.
And that lead-off point kept the Internationals in it, the first of a late-afternoon comeback charge across the board.
Match Two - Halved
Adam Scott / Hideki Matsuyama vs. Bill Haas / Webb Simpson
This was another gettable match for the International side, with Scott and Matsuyama slight (and debatable) underdogs to the Wake Forest duo of Haas and Simpson. The USA team led off with a birdie, and held a lead until the 11th hole, when Scott and the Japanese phenom Matsuyama pulled things square. They were another pair that utilized the delay to rest and take back momentum late.
The Internationals hung on to keep it close, using an Adam Scott chip-in to stay alive. They came to the 18th tee 1-down, almost certainly needing a birdie to salvage a half point. And Matsuyama, who captain Price was unsure had ever played partner match golf before Monday, fired a dart into the 18th green. He didn't even need his putter, as the birdie was conceded.
Haas and Simpson could not birdie, and the Internationals picked up a half point that had to feel like a win based on how things were going for most of the afternoon. Matsuyama just turned pro in April but he could be the sneaky x-factor for Price's team, as he was nails and contended on the weekend at the season's final three majors.
Match Three - International team wins, 2&1
Louis Oosthuizen / Charl Schwartzel vs. Phil Mickelson / Keegan Bradley
Louis and Charl started the day goofing around in wigs, and it seemed like they would be cannon fodder for the Mickelson-Bradley pair that was America's most dynamic team at last year's Ryder Cup. Oosthuizen was nursing neck, back and hip injuries for the entire second half of the summer, and had played almost no competitive golf since early July. He figured to be an anchor weight for Schwartzel, even though the two are childhood friends and have historically partnered together in team match play events.
But the South African pair kept Mickeson and Bradley in check on the back nine. Mickelson drilled a birdie putt on the opening hole for an early USA lead, which they held until No. 9. While the rest of the board was painted red, Schwartzel and Oosty looked to be the only International pair that would deliver any points. They took the 1-up lead on the 11th hole, and never relinquished it to close it out on the 17th green.
They were steady, but Mickelson and Bradley did not show the same magic from last fall. Lefty had just two winning birdies on the round and Bradley struggled with the belly putter, making just one winning birdie.
Match Four - USA wins, 1 up
Ernie Els / Brendon de Jonge vs. Steve Stricker / Jordan Spieth
This was the third and final match that went to the 18th hole, where Steve Stricker sank a short par putt to salvage the American advantage after Day 1. Jordan Spieth, the 20-year-old phenom, certainly didn't look out of place in his debut. He sank putts from lengthy distances for much of the day, taking a cue from his partner, renowned as one of the best putters in the world.
Stricker is old enough to be Spieth's dad, but the two have comparable styles and all the signs pointed to Fred Couples putting them together.
And Spieth needed Stricker on the final hole after the young superstar rinsed his tee shot in the creek left of the fairway. Stricker needed to get up-and-down from a bunker in front the green in order to split the hole and preserve the 1-up win. With an awkward stance in the trap, he blasted out to a few feet to save par and avoid a split in the last match of the day to finish.
Ernie Els, the godfather of the International team, made only one birdie all day while rookie and controversial captain's choice Brendon de Jonge was the hottest player on the course. The Zimbabwean made eight birdies and carried Els to keep it close. This would have been a monumental split had they pulled it square on the last green, as it would have made the entire session a draw at 3 points per team. Instead, Stricker delivered to keep the US up a point heading to Friday.
Match Five - USA wins, 5&4
Angel Cabrera / Marc Leishman vs. Matt Kuchar / Tiger Woods
Tiger Woods has his partner for the week.
Kuchar and Woods were untouchable in their opening match routing an overwhelmed Cabrera-Leishman duo. This was an American team that opened with birdie and never really looked back, extending the lead on the back nine and closing it out early.
Tiger's putter was in perfect form, and he canned four birdies in a nine-hole stretch to remove all doubt. The only real drama was the development of the duo's new Fresh Prince homage celebration:
Match Six - USA wins, 5&3
Branden Grace / Richard Sterne vs. Jason Dufner / Zach Johnson
This was the second American rout at the back end of the session to add another crucial point and back-up the Woods-Kuchar success. I wrote earlier in the week that Johnson and Dufner are probably America's best team when they're in form. They're unbeatable, really. The American duo now has some reps and are two of the best ball strikers in the world. The South African rookies of Grace and Sterne were not up to task. The U.S. pair blew things out before the rain delay, and were just as steady after.
Dufner, standing on the first tee, never had a doubt:
It's hard to see captain Fred Couples breaking up this duo of contrasting personalties. They've been pretty automatic and could be the points leaders when it's all over.

There are several options for parents when it comes to getting their kids into their school of choice.
For many years Memphis City Schools parents would line up outside of the school administration building, waiting for hours, sometimes days to get into an optional school or into an international baccalaureate program.
Since MCS has merged with Shelby County Schools, the optional school choice is available to all students, but there is a criteria.
MORE: Parents camp out for 5 days pays off
MORE: Group urges commission to drop opposition
MORE: Parents raise questions about school budget
MORE: Suburban mayors withdraw from schools mediation
"Usually the criteria centers around test scores, grade, behavior, attendance, but it does vary school to school as to what those criteria are," explains William White, MCS' Executive Director of Student Research.
White says as far as optional schools are concerned, they're on a first come first serve basis. He also says these types of schools, for example White Station and Overton High schools, must also have the space available. This program will be available until the school year starts.
MORE: MCS Shelby County General Choice Transfers
"If you're interested in optional or IB (international baccalaureate) programs, you can still research those programs and get an application," White added.
The IB, or international baccalaureate, is a rigorous academic program where a student can get an internationally recognized diploma. The most recent option for students is the general choice. It's the former open enrollment for MCS and the old student transfer process for Shelby County.
"We have blended those processes and we now have this online process that will start on Friday and that will be the process on getting a transfer just based on availability."
Even though all of the choices are available to parents right now, next year is still a work in progress.
"We're certainly listening to all of the feedback we're getting from our parents and our community and those decisions will get made based on that input. Certainly our board will weigh in on how certain things are handled," says White.
So parents, if you want to give your child the best academic chance, it's your choice to pick the best academic option.
You can call the Office for Division of Optional Schools at 901-416-5338 or 901-416-5830. Enrollment closes April 1.

Too bad there were no chairs and table at the shared terrace. On the picture there were.. Nuria is a very nice host and we had a great stay anyway. Oh, the place is really in the middle of the center of town, so don t expect weekend nights to be silent.

I refuse to believe that I should be treated like an animal so that prison guards and politicians can line their pockets. The prison system has made solitary confinement a lucrative business. Housing us in solitary confinement costs $30,000 more than housing us in the general population.
