"Sometimes I would get frustrated in practice when I'd miss a shot and she would be there to encourage me and I would think she just doesn't know how frustrating it is," Mavunga said. "But then I'd look up and see her jersey and know she did. She's been a phenomenal coach and to be able to see how much she accomplished inspired me."
Brauman was obviously thrilled for Mavunga and realizes the magnitude of this accomplishment.
"She kind of respects what I say to her since I played a million years ago," Brauman said. "It's a great honor and doesn't happen very often, especially Miss Basketball. It seems like a one in a million type of thing."
Mavunga will wear the coveted No. 1 jersey as the Indiana All-Stars take on the Kentucky All-Stars June 14 in Louisville.and at Bankers Life Fieldhouse June 15.

Emery LeCrone and Constantine Baecher Choreograph for MOVEIUS Contemporary Ballet's Spring Performances
Sought-After Choreographic Voices Show New Works to Local Audiences
Performance: Outside In at 8 p.m. Friday, April 18, and 7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 19, at the Montgomery College Cultural Arts Center, 7995 Georgia Ave., Silver Spring, MD. Tickets $25; $5 Tickets for Teens (cash only)*
*Box Office only, day of performance
(WASHINGTON, DC) - MOVEIUS Contemporary Ballet will bring two nationally renowned choreographers' works to Montgomery County this April for "Outside In," the company's spring season performances. New York-based artist Emery LeCrone has received a New York City Center Choreographic Fellowship (2011-2012) and a New Essential Works Grant (2010) for her choreography. For this upcoming program she has created a world premiere piece for MOVEIUS set to selections of Max Richter's album Recomposed. International award-winner Constantine Baecher also set his moving work "Viduity" on the company.
Both choreographers worked with MOVEIUS dancers for a brief, intensive period in late fall 2013 to create and set the works.
Ms. LeCrone has been previously commissioned to create new works for many esteemed institutions including the Juilliard School of Dance, the New York City Ballet's New York Choreographic Institute and the Solomon R. Guggenheim's prestigious Works & Process performing arts series among many others.
Her new work for MOVEIUS is a choreographic response inspired by Max Richter's new compositions based on Vivaldi's The Four Seasons. Like the music, LeCrone's choreography balances classical inspiration with a contemporary aesthetic - a perfect fit for MOVEIUS, the DC metro area's premier contemporary ballet company.
Ms. LeCrone described her four-day creative process with MOVEIUS as focused and exciting. "I always love beginning a new process because I feel like I learn as much as the dancers on the first day," LeCrone said. "The dancers were so hungry for the material; it was easy to maintain focus."
Choreographer Constantine Baecher also spent a focused period with the company to stage his work, "Viduity." Mr. Baecher splits his time between New York and Copenhagen, where he previously danced with the Royal Danish Ballet and now runs the Cross Connection Ballet Company.
Mr. Baecher originally created "Viduity" for New York's New Chamber Ballet as a reflection on the death of a family member. The emotional piece examines the grieving process. MOVEIUS's performance of "Viduity" will mark the Washington-area premiere of the work.
Both choreographers praised MOVEIUS's focus on bringing new works to local audiences. "That creates opportunities for choreographers, audiences and dancers," LeCrone said.
"MOVEIUS expands on the traditional ballet vocabulary to create works that attract new audiences," said Artistic and Executive Director Diana Movius. "MOVEIUS Contemporary Ballet is the only DC-area ballet company that makes a regular practice of creating new, dancer-driven art works. Many of our pieces are choreographed by the ballet dancers themselves."
Indeed, MOVEIUS's "Outside In" will present Baecher's and LeCrone's works alongside premieres from local choreographers. MOVEIUS Associate Director Olivia Sabee will present a new work created in conjunction with Parallel Octave, a Baltimore-based improvisational chorus. MOVEIUS Rehearsal Director Kimberly Parmer will present a premiere set to an original score composed and performed by Juilliard-trained pianist Erh-Jen Lee. Plus the company will revisit Shelley Siller's recent work "In Flames."

MOVEIUS will present "Outside In" at 8 p.m. Friday, April 18, and 7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 19, at the Montgomery College Cultural Arts Center, 7995 Georgia Ave., Silver Spring, MD. Tickets and information are available at www.moveiusdance.org.
About Tickets for Teens:
As part of MOVEIUS' mission to make high-quality contemporary ballet accessible to local audiences, the company debuted its Tickets for Teens program for its Montgomery College appearances this season. Students aged 13-19 can purchase any remaining seats for $5 (cash only) beginning 30 minutes before curtain, with a valid school or government ID. The program is designed to make contemporary ballet available to teens who are too old for children's programming, but too young to take advantage of more-common college discounts.

Fresh herbs are pretty and delicious, as well as easy to grow.
Here are some ideas for easy favors for the guests at your next garden party.
Each year on the 17th of March, we celebrate our Irish heritage with "wearing of the green" and coming together to eat corned beef and cabbage. Nothing goes better with that traditional meal than Irish soda bread.
After my diagnosis of gluten and dairy intolerance in 2007, I thought I couldn't make traditional Irish soda bread anymore. However, I'm as stubborn as Maureen O'Hara in The Quiet Man, and I refuse to let my food intolerances keep me from having a good time. I found a recipe for gluten free soda bread on a website and later tweaked it to something I enjoyed even more.
What is Irish soda bread? It's a quick bread that rises with baking soda instead of yeast—a loaf created for those times when yeast bread would take too long. Soda breads are a lot like cornbread, and my recipe contains cornmeal too. I like gluten free recipes that incorporate cornmeal or corn flour into them. Corn makes gluten free bread a warm golden color. I also added a little bit of teff flour to give this bread more of a wheat-like appearance.
A bit about gluten free flours
I like brown rice flour, and I still use it mixed with potato starch and tapioca starch as my basic flour combination, but you might want to read up on arsenic levels in rice and rice flours if you eat a lot of rice products. I rarely use white rice flour for anything because it's an empty starch, and the gluten free diet can be too full of empty starches anyway.
I like sorghum flour and millet flour, and you could substitute sorghum flour for some of the brown rice flour in this recipe. Play with flours and figure out those you like best. Some gluten free bakers don't use potato starch in their baked goods because the potato is part of the nightshade family. I like potato starch because it lifts the dough and makes it more supple.
Irish soda bread usually incorporates raisins. I use dried cherries instead. Caraway seeds are also traditional, but I don't care for them so I left them out.
Gluten and Dairy-free Irish Soda Bread
1-cup brown rice flour
½ cup cornmeal
¼ cup teff flour for dietary fiber and color
¼ cup potato starch
¼ cup tapioca starch
1 t. baking soda
1 t. baking powder
2 T. honey
2 t. xanthan gum
1 ¼ cup almond milk or hemp milk (or buttermilk if you eat dairy) with 1 t. apple cider vinegar added to "sour" the almond milk
2 free-range eggs (I use mine from my chickens)
3 T. coconut oil or other vegetable oil
Optional: 1T caraway seeds and ½ cup of raisins or dried cherries. (Try the cherries. You'll love them.)
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Add cider vinegar to almond milk. Let stand so that it can "sour" and become thicker like buttermilk.
Mix together your dry ingredients in a medium sized bowl. Dry measurements should be leveled with a knife as shown.
Don't forget the xanthan gum because it's the magic ingredient that gives elasticity to your dough. I know, gluten free is a whole new way to cook. You can do it though.
Gently beat the eggs and add them to the milk, oil and honey. If you used coconut oil, melt it beforehand.
Add dry ingredients to wet. This process is a reverse to normal baking, but it seems to work better with gluten free ingredients. Stir in your caraway seeds (if desired) and dried fruit. Don't overmix.
Pour dough out into an iron skillet, cookie sheet or round cake pan. Shape the bread into a loose mound. The dough will be quite sticky so you may want to put some brown rice flour on your hands first.
Score the dough with a knife to make the familiar cross in Irish soda bread. Bake for 30 minutes or until the bread rings hollow when you thump it. Serve with Earth Balance spread (or butter if you can have dairy) and even jam. This bread is great with soup like my
Spring Carrot Soup or
Spring Pea Soup.
Celebrate St. Patrick's Day with all of its trimmings. Just because someone in your party needs to eat gluten and dairy free is no reason not to party. A homemade loaf of Irish soda bread will add that something special to your meal. Enjoy!

• Add a reason-for-dead (not "reason for loss" which will scare the reps off) in association with dead or lost deals.
• As soon as an opportunity is marked with these values, make it automatically disappear from reports, views, and searches, so that reps won't be reminded about the negatives. This is done using CRM workflows, access control, and page layout features.
• Create management reports for the VPs of sales and marketing that help them understand the failure patterns, so the business processes in both groups can be improved.
Creating and Deleting Accounts
The sales team typically believes that Accounts are their exclusive domain as well. But in an organization of any size, this just isn't true. If you're serious, CRM is connected to the accounting system, and creating an account can trigger all kinds of processes in accounting, finance and legal. So the reps should be allowed to create prospective accounts (that are not transferred outside of the CRM), but only sales operations, accounting, or finance personnel should be able to create full-fledged accounts.
Deleting accounts is even more of an issue. The basic rule again is "no," except by a system administrator or other data professional who understands the ramifications. This can be a big issue if you have duplicate accounts in your CRM/accounting system caused by linkages to your partners or channel. In some situations, you can't delete duplicates -- all you can do is rename them and create a parent-child relationship with the main account in your Accounting system's database. Make sure the people running your deduping and data cleansing tools are properly trained on these issues!
Creating and Deleting Leads (or Contacts)
The marketing team is typically charged with Lead generation, and their campaigns may create leads by the hundreds on a daily basis. At least they hope so. And there's really no harm in creating lots of leads: with the right deduping tools and processing protocols, the history of customer interactions will be properly preserved even if a lead has been deduped dozens of times.
The marketing team, for obvious reasons, has no interest in deleting leads. But the Sales team often does. They want to get the worthless ones out of the way...and if there is a political war going on, they often like the opportunity to make marketing look bad. You want to look out for this: if you find a lot of leads being deleted, or if you find the "lead source" being changed, this should raise red flags about room for improvement in cross-organizational processes.
The hard reality is that 95% or more of leads may be no good: it does not help to hide this. You need to optimize your sales and marketing investment to fit with the yield and conversion patterns of your target market. So, like opportunities, leads should never be deleted: only hidden. The steps here:

Parents want to protect their children, and that should include their financial security. Even if kids are too young to have a bank account or credit card, their identity can be stolen.
Children and adolescents have become the fastest growing sector of identity theft victims. Experts warn from the time your child gets a Social Security number, their personal information needs to be protected.
"Be aware of how your children's personal information is used just like your own information--Social Security number, and date of birth--be aware of how it is being used," says Jim Walsh, U.S. Postal Inspector.
In a recent case, more than 500 elementary school kids in Los Angeles had their information compromised. A suspect with access to school files sold the kids' personal information to another suspect.
"There were hundreds of accounts opened and most of the accounts were used to get money," said Walsh.
The suspects withdrew cash advances, or they would sell the names to make fake college IDs.Postal inspectors say children have clean credit histories, which makes them appealing to criminals.
"If they apply for a loan or try to get credit, they could find out their credit is basically ruined and wouldn't know it the whole time they are growing up," said Walsh.
That's why it's important to periodically check your child's credit. Here are some signs that can tip you off to a possible ID theft:

In Tallahassee, state leaders are hiring 330 new workers in order to help process unemployment applications because of problems with the new online system, according to the Daytona Beach News Journal.
Agency officials say the unemployment department has been swamped with phone calls and emails from people who say they are having problems with the new website since it went live on October 15, 2013.
The department is expected to hire more than 75 more people in January and February to help assist with the websites problems.
At this point, it is unknown how much it will cost the state to hire these new employees.
State officials say it is also unclear when the system will be running without any issues.

Preliminary testing of a new nerve stimulation technique appears to alleviates tinnitus symptoms. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) have granted a UT Dallas researcher and a University-affiliated biomedical firm $1.7 million to investigate whether nerve stimulation offers a long-term cure for tinnitus.
The recent 2010 Oticon Pediatrics Conferences focused on making it easier to help children with hearing loss achieve their full potential by addressing children's abilities, needs and desires at every stage of their development.
A new study has found disparities among children suffering from repeated ear infections. Frequent ear infections plague white children and children living below the poverty level more than children of other racial or ethnic backrounds or income levels.
In October, Oticon will launch - Pink with a Purpose - to introduce the Oticon Agil Think Pink hearing aid. During October, National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Oticon will donate a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the special edition Agil Think Pink and all Agil hearing aids to the National Breast Cancer Coalition to support breast cancer research.

With each visit, I find myself feeling more and more at home. When you walk in the front door, a beautiful fire invites you to make your self at home. The front desk greets you when you come in each day. Guests are able to use the grand piano for practice. There is a wonderful (clean) hot tub and swimming pool in relaxing enviornment. Room aminities range from bottled water, coffee and tea to a comfy robe to wear during your stay. Each day you are greeted with an Omaha newspaper then omlets, bacon, sausage, waffels, fruits, pastries, cereals and yogurt. Additionally, attached to the hotel are fine dining and a casual dining restaurants. Owner x can be found at all hours of the day working side by side with her staff. I tried to give her a compliment once, she graciously gave credit to her staff. (A staff who speaks very highly of her when she isn't present) I can't say enough good things about the lodge, I actually don't mind being away from home when I come here.

The breakfast bar could be better.I do a lot of traveling for business and use priceline regularly to book rooms in my travels. This motel was easy to find with info in GPS and the staff was friendly. The desk clerk ask if I needed a wake up call and I told him that I did but was unsure of the time. He later called my room to verify was satisfactory and to get my wake up call information. I would recommend for business or pleasure travel.

Twenty years in the hair industry has afforded Linda VanSweden plenty of time to sharpen her skills. Her extensive training involves the newest hair cutting and coloring techniques, as well as perms. In addition to cutting away overgrown locks, she performs mani-pedis and removes unwanted hair on eyebrows, upper lips, and tongues with waxing services.
Though their names may be slightly different, the family of nail salons that is Comstock Nails, Lovely Nails, MI Nails, and Wyoming Nails have almost everything else in common. That includes a friendly staff, pedicure thrones with soothing jet tubs, and specialty nail services such as Shellac manicures. The last of these is a particular highlight—the specially formulated Shellac polish cures under UV light and resists chipping for up to two weeks. All three of the salons carry multiple colors of CND Shellac polish, including seasonal shades such as Sugared Spice and Deep-Fried Turducken.
Nicole Skinner tends to her clients' hair inside Salon 84, a cozy retreat peppered with unique decorative touches. Circular mirrors cling to geometric-printed wallpaper in soft gold and maroon hues. Eye-catching lights reminiscent of giant marshmallows dangle from the ceiling and illuminate a sleek wood floor and gray- and white-striped chairs.
Midnite Sun & Cruise spritzes golden hues on clients' skin with equipment that includes multi-level UV beds and spray booths by VersaSpa and Mystic Tan. The salon boasts an array of tanning booths with different amenities, including facial lamps and fast-acting, high-pressure beds. The MR International products for sale at Midnite Sun & Cruise work in tandem with the tanning beds and UV rays to yield a deeper, darker tan. In addition to traditional tanning beds, Midnite Sun & Cruise supplies spray tans and red-light skin rejuvenation. The VersaSpa spray-tan solution mingles with the skin's amino acids and proteins, perpetuating a bronzed sheen for five to seven days, and Mystic Tan sprays boast a natural color that evenly fades and diminishes the slight DHA odor. Red-light therapy promotes collagen production for smoother skin, and fights acne harder than a dermatologist with a soap-filled fire hydrant.

"Thanks to the EU's brilliant idea of a common currency, Ireland is losing its best & brightest as young educated Irish migrate in droves to USA & Canada".
Oh my gosh!
What triggered the Great Migration Period, also known as "migration of peoples" in Europe from about 400 to 800 AD?
Who made huge numbers of Irish people migrate to the US between 1845 and 1852?
And who made 250,000 "Okies" migrate from the Southwest to California and Arizona in the 1930s?
What made Europeans, throughout history, migrate to other territories and lands in the first place?
Mutually aspired migration is the spice of human civilization!
Excuse me Emma, but I have to criticise this comment.
"Thanks to the EU's brilliant idea of a common currency, Ireland is losing its best & brightest as young educated Irish migrate in droves to USA & Canada."
Oh right. Because emigration from Ireland was an unknown phenomenon before the common currency...
@ Pedrolx2:
"It truly isn't our fault that all the rest of the Europeans are nothing but backstabbers, liars, and thieves, and which have managed to give less to civilisation than small little old Portugal."
This coming from someone who's living in the country which has received the second-highest per-capita EU subsidies since its admission 27 years ago, and which is currently kept on life-support by its euro zone peers with credits equaling 2/3 of its annual GDP - PORTUGAL.
Being a good european when being part of "Europe" means nothing more than to receive massive handouts is cheap. For a lot of Europeans, being part of the club has always involved sacrificies. Welcome to reality.
To pedrolx2
After having had the patience to read several of your "dyslexic" posts (many of them sent and addressed to me) and several of your non-dyslexic articulate ones, I can only see six possibilities:
1) You are not just one poster, but two (your brother, perhaps), hence the "x2". One is dyslexic or even tries to look like one and the other is not. I have seen this phenomenon before. This would be quite dishonest on your part.
2) You suffer from Cyclothymia or bipolar disorder. I am sorry for you.
3) You are a fake.
4) You like to laugh at your fellow posters and bloggers. Probably because of an inferiority complex (individual or national) compensated by a stronger superiority complex. What a lack of respect.
5) You think you are very smart and like to play childish "funny" games. They may be funny for you, but not for other people.
6) If sanmartinian were Dr. Evil, you would Mini-Me.
It's probably a combination of two or more, up to six.
I have a special credit (credibility and respect in this case) rating for some of the posters and bloggers here, considered individually or collectively. Using Moody's's ratings, the entity "Portuguese Posters", which only a week ago had a good rating, Aa3 to A2 as an average, is now at Caa1. Congratulations, folks! And it could worsen and be lowered to Caa3, Ca or even C, that's up to you.
Fellow posters and bloggers, please feel free to choose any of the six possibilities or add new ones.
And so the ECB must be held accountable for the debts of the members of the 'single currency', as the members are no longer holders of soveriegnty as countries, they answer to the ECB and to the elite in Brussels.
He is many things, yet I find there is little that can be found they backs his information 'empirically'.
His biggest problem is that he just does not seem to get his head around diversion in different economics, treating all the same.
The German economic model is not the best, it works well for Germany, but what is to one man wine is to another poison.
'Bad banks' usually go bust if they are over-leveraged. It's a country's banking supervisory executive's job to prevent this, in time, from happening. Country's where this happened what you portrayed above in the case of Portugal, don't do a 'good job' in enacting appropriate laws (or executing existing laws) . . . no matter where it happened, in Portugal, Germany or the Netherlands.
And it's a different story all together if governments that didn't enact appropriate laws in time or failed to execute existing laws properly, now ask those governments (and, thus, the taxpayers of these countries) for 'support' who did a much better job to protect their financial system.
What governments like Germany's did was to take measures, e.g., by forcing domestic banks to create a compulsory common bank insurance fund, so that the failure of one bank doesn't result in a domino effect. To supplement the enacted law, the German government had implemented the so called SoFFin fund. The fund's purpose was and is to stabilize the financial system in Germany.
SoFFin's goal is and remains the restoration of mutual confidence among German banks and the outside confidence in Germany's financial system. What all mentioned 'peripheral' or 'profligate' states have in common is that they lack similar financial security programs or failed to execute them (in time). This is haunting them now.
The German "Finanzmarkt Stabilisierung Sonder Fonds" (Special Financial Market Stabilization Funds" was created when it became apparent that the American financial crisis of 2007 will eventually hit Germany (Europe) as well. October 20, 2008, the German Parliament enacted the necessary law . . . but as usual in Germany, the law wasn't merely "enacted", it was executed highly efficiently as well.
The execution of laws, once they are enacted, is actually the prereq of a functioning state, as I wrote in another post about American gun laws. Many countries in Europe passed similar financial laws as Germany . . . but failed badly putting them into functioning programs.
This is also the reason why some states in this world become 'failed states': Not because the don't have laws, but because the respective executive branch of the government fails to execute them or is incapable to enforce them. Most of the time the reason for this 'failure' is that the 'elected governments' are bound by special 'clientele-interests' and/or by cronyism.
In some cases, even if these laws are executed by enforcement authorities (such as prosecutors and police), the judicial system is too corrupt to render severe enough punishing verdicts or the judges simply fail to sentence the culprits all together (as it often happens in Greece and Italy). These are the typical symptoms of 'failed states'.
The failure to take appropriate measures in time resulted in the case of all mentioned 'profligate' countries in their current demand to create a 'banking union', well with whom? . . . With banks in those countries, "of course", that executed bank supervision more effectively.
Countries like Germany seem to be willing to help . . . but only after guarantees are given and put in place (meaning 'properly executed') that these EU states that are on the verge to become 'failed' are turning away from the paths that took them there in the first place.
For those who don't know this: It's the German governments FIRST duty to assure that their own people aren't -by the will of the failed 'profligates' - turned into mere lemmings who foolishly follow a visibly wrong path, regardless of the consequences.
New article in ZeroHedge on LIBOR manipulation, especially from Swiss UBS bank:
From Bloomberg:
If in the United States, these considerations are being published against the Swiss gnomes, I believe we should begin discussing the same measures here in Europe against Deutsche Bank, which has almost single-handedly (with a bit of help from incompetent and corrupt Greek bureaucrats) plunged our continent into a financial and currency crisis.
I'm not against the euro (where did yiou get that idea from?).
I'm against fooling ourselves into believing this crisis is over, as you are doing.
That will only be the case once structural problems in the countries representing 40% of the eurozone economy (code name: "PIIGS" - not my choice of words) will have been fixed.
" Someone in Europe really wants to stay competitive with Asia - what an insult!"
Italy has a trade surplus with mighty Japan. We also have a trade surplus with all our other G7 partners - except Germany.
In 2010, we had a €15 billion trade deficit with Germany. In 2011, we had a €12 billion deficit. In the first eight months of this year, we had a deficit under €4 billion (August was a small surplus). In other words, our deficit with Germany is evaporating - and by next year should be a solid surplus.
The Germans are over-rated. Especially by themselves.
Why would Poland want to join the financial suicide pact that is the Euro? If I was a Pole, I would do anything I had to to 'convince' politicians to stay out of it.
EU/Euro: good for the rich, good for politicians, good for corporations, bad for everyone else.
@ Joe
I was also wondering how your Alice in Wonderland "Graeco/Latin" 'European defence force' was going to work. You said Cyprus, Malta, Italy, Spain (which last saw military action when it bombed its own capital), Portugal and Luxemburg would all create such a force under French leadership, though the French have never expressed the slightest interest in such a mad scheme and wouldn't touch it with a barge-pole. Can this be the Italians' love affair with Napoleon whom they claim as one of their own? I can think of no other explanation.
Also, with reference to your deleted posting, where you claimed there was 'a spate of articles in the British press' reporting British preparations for invading the Continent on the pretext that it was 'undemocratic', I would be VERY interested in receiving links and references to this 'spate of articles'.
to la.výritý on energy prospects
I've said I was leaving this thread but not that I would stop reading the rare interesting comments on it.
Even if my reply to you is fully off topic.
I believe you'd be interested to be aware of the following I wrote to a friend a a few months ago.
By private mail email@example.com so maligned by a few posters not all that long ago.
An average nuclear power station produces around 1000 MW. Larger ones may reach around 3000 MW with three turbines. The smallest one produces around 300MW.
The existing ammonia/water Kalina plants produce the following amounts of energy:
Kashima Steel Works 3.6 MW
Tokyo Bay Refinery 4MW
Kalina/Geothermal facilities:
Husavik,Iceland 2MW electricity; 20MW heat
Unterhaching, Germany 3.4MW electricity, 38MW heating
Brushal, Germany 580 KW electricity
Matsunoyama Onsen, Japan 50KW
It is small stuff now. So were the first wind turbines.
Unterhaching, practically a suburb of Munich, is the major power producer today (combined power/heating)
The patents (some 200 of them) on the Kalina cycle (a mixture of ammonia/water) are owned and traded by a subsidiary of Wasabi Energy Ltd. Siemens owns the rights to use them while FL Schmidt, the Danish cement operator and designer, owns the rights to sell the cycle to all cement plants in the world.
Germany together with Iceland and Japan operates the most advanced Kalina cycle plants everywhere.
It is not unthinkable that in a couple of decades the combination of geothermal energy with the Kalina cycle will be a substantial part of stationary energy generation.
Two small points of curiosity. During the war, in Belgium, mostly in Brussels, buses ran on ammonia.
Where I mostly live nowadays, my two electricity bills have shown for the past 5 years a share of well above 55% of total of renewables, wind alone being occasionally above 40%.
Slowly and gradually, surely the way to go.
You can find a lot more on the Kalina cycle easily, even in always convenient, if not very high brow, Wikipedia. Just Google for Kalina cycle or ammonia as energy producer.
Hope you'll enjoy knowing this.
"The US always wins. Europe always loses."
Funny, you make a statement based on the last 100 years.
Ignoring the previous 2000 years.
The next 100 years might look quite different. Europe and China
are far older than the US. Empires come, Empires go.

Nor does the US at present. Owned by China. Buying products made in China. Soon to be bested by China.
to ex orient... on two posts of mine having been deleted
Two posts of mine in reply to yours were deleted by someone who's not genuinely attached to freedom of expression.
The gist of my Ireply to Moderators as follows:
I would be grateful to know which part of my comments breaks your comments policy.........As this practice can only damage The Economist, of which I have been a faithful reader for some fifty odd years, I will repost the two messages expunged of any even subtle hint that may break your comments policy.(paragraph)I entreat you to look for the long time interests of The Economist the standards of which have notoriously gone down in the last half dozen years thanks, among others, to giving in to interests .....As for my personal feelings, I'm laughing my brains to concussion as my guesses have been proved right.(paragraph)About the Economist, among whose staff I've had many friends along the years, I'm worried....
Here are my two last expunged posts to you
to ex orient... as my last comment
In your quote you forgot to include the important bit of my information:
....that allowed both France and Germany to put their spoon in the soup as well. They ran afoul of Maastricht for a while.(paragragh)Obviously, I am not sure if this is true. I'm not even sure I believe it.(paragraph) It looks too damn
close to a conspiracy theory for me to let my guards down against of this type of rumour.....
Suddenly, ever since I mentioned Isandlwana and the present danger England now faces caused by the monoculture of finance gambling and the City's dominance, I am suddenly attacked en forceby previously friendly posters.
…..............(referrence to past posters)
With his inimitable wit Pumpernickel used to call them Morlocks.
…........(referrence to a comical trick played by me in response to a childish manoeuver of the above mentioned posters)
Never forget: the Devil knows a lot not because he is the Devil but just because he is too damn old.
Forget addressing me again directly or via other posts.
I'll just won't read you any longer. And even less reply.
Have a nice New Year.
2nd deleted post now expunged
Forgot to add that I never wrote Portugal is richer than many other European countries, a statement so idiotic (expunged).
What I wrote is that a Borda ranking (expunged) I drew in July 2010 showed out of 13 countries mostly European and the USA the three best managed financially were Italy, Germany, Portugal.
Only a (expunged) assumes better financially managed is the same as richer.
The very deep report of Allianz published in September that year provided a ranking fully coincident the mine except for the USA (curiously probably caused by a statistical quirk which is the object of many PhD theses).
I didn't study the results of the 2011 Allianz report but a quick perusal makes me believe changes may not have been highly significant.
That is obviously way out of (expunged) knowledge limits and I'll go into it with only bona fide reasonably well informed posters.
End of expunged posts
Needless to say the expunged bits have been for sometime in the hands of those who may genuinely be interested in them.
This is just for common posters who, thank God for their wisdom, won't even bother to read this.
Repeat: have a nice New Year.
Yes, the EU failed to uphold its own rules and created a currency with no backstop, half baked.
If it was not for these things, there would be no crisis.
to la.výritý on the way to "ignore" markets.
Concise, clear and completely right.
Although a little house cleaning of the markets to get rid of the criminal forces that took them over mainly in the City, Wall Street and Australia (are there any more examples needed?) would be a big help for the next decade, too.
Don't waste your time. For Pedro, Portugal is just a victim that's been "backstabbed at EU meetings" by its euro zone partners, never mind a decade and a half of overspending and underachieving and multilateral help amounting to 2/3 (or 170 bn euro) of Portugal's GDP of 240 bn.
I guess he must talk about the same EU meetings at which the Portuguese minister of finance was famously recorded asking his German counterpart for more money:
Anyway, happy blogging.
Very lucid observations, and quite funny ones, too. It's a combination of most of the reason you throw up in the air, but # 4 (low self-esteem) is very obviously front and center.
Pedro, if you agree with Birt, then you need to change your statement to European politicians made manure of sound economic thought.
As for the financial meltdown, economic boom periods do not last forever. The longer they last, the greater the correction.
Our central bank here in the US is independent of external political forces of course.

I have the following McShane names:
GEORGE MCSHANE of Dungannon married to JOANNE KINGSTON
Their daughter MARY ANN MCSHANE married EUGENE CLARKE of Drogheda (b. Carrickmacross, 1824) at St. Audoen's RC Church, Dublin March 1857. Their first son was called "James Bernard Clarke" b. Drogheda, 1858.
Your post mentions "Kingston", "Mary Ann" "James" and "Dungannon" which could all suggest a connection. Could my GEORGE MCSHANE be a brother of your "CHARLES MCSHANE"?

Chris Brown was arrested in Washington D.C. this morning for FELONY assault after allegedly attacking a man outside a hotel ... TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... at around 4:30 AM Brown got into an argument with a man outside the W Hotel on K Street and allegedly punched him once in the face. We're told the alleged victim never threw a punch.
The alleged victim tells TMZ ... he and a friend were hanging out at the W when they saw 2 women about to take a picture with Brown. The victim -- who says he's not a Chris Brown fan -- says he and his buddy photo bombed the 2 women and Chris went nuts, punching him in the face and BREAKING HIS NOSE. He went to the hospital and says he may need surgery as early as tomorrow.
Law enforcement sources and the alleged victim tell TMZ ... before striking the man, Chris said, "I'm not down with that gay s**t, I feel like boxing." After Chris punched the man, the fight was taken to the ground.
Sources connected with Chris tell TMZ ... the alleged victim is full of BS. He was NOT trying to take a pic with Chris ... he was trying to get on Chris' tour bus, and Brown was simply trying to stop a trespass. The sources say before the incident the 2 girls tried to get on the bus but they were stopped, and that's when the victim and his friend made their move.
Law enforcement sources say Chris did not appear to be under the influence of anything.
Chris and his bodyguard -- who was also arrested -- will stay in jail today. Under DC law Brown can't get bail so he'll appear before a magistrate Monday, and until then he'll stay behind bars.
The alleged victim tells TMZ he doesn't understand why Brown was "so homophobic" to hurl such a slur. And get this ... the victim says he would have accepted an apology at the scene, but now he will absolutely press charges -- and he's already hired a lawyer.
Brown is still on probation in the Rihanna beating case and this could be grounds for violating his probation -- which means he could be sentenced to prison for nearly 4 years ... worst case scenario for him.
Before the incident, Chris had been hosting a party (pic below) at the nearby Park and 14th nightclub.
Karrueche just trashed Chris on Twitter ...
the nerve of him, thinking it's wrong or deviant for two men to have anal sex and then lick the doodoo cicle.
You know who the closet gays are? Guys like Chris Brown who have anal sex with women, and hate themselves for liking it. That's a closet gay !!!
It's about time he ends his sorry ass up in jail. Hopefully for a few more years with violation of his parole.
Awesome NEWS! Karma swings its massive hand across this sorry excuse for a human. Jail time, Jail time, BYE BYE.. See you in five years. lol love it!
If I had a son...
I live just outside DC...I want to know what low life pieace of garbgae from Howard U....decided to pay and have this Criminal/Felon be part of Howards Homecoming Celebration! Graet show for the best know Black University in the world! Way to go there Howard!
Chris Brown is a closet homosexual. That's why he has so many anger issues, because he doesn't want to admit it. He probably got in a fight with Rhianna that night cause when he got a text it was from a man, and he didn't want her to find out. He must hate himself and uses gay slurs as a projection of his anger towards himself.
He would not have been taken to jail if he was only trying to stop the guy from getting on the bus. Get real
Must have been working out or sumpin' hitting dudes now!
And in relevant news, I just heard that Lou Reed passed away. : (
Seriously i believe that this should be the last Straw.Not only should he be charged with felony assault. He should now be charged with a hate crime considering the fact he used a gay slur in the proccess of the assault. Chris Brown should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law and made a example of .Not to mention this is a violation of his probation.If this had been a average joe he would have been locked up a long time ago
Does the guy look like Rihanna? Maybe Chris Brown mistook him for her.
Once a punk always a punk
Solving the problem -
Load Chris Brown, Miley, Justin, The Kardashians, K. West, Entire Lohan Family, Beyoncé all on a private jet and fly into the side of a mountain at full speed!
The world would be a much better plac
Actually I guess you should be on the plane w/ them. B/c the world is not a better place w/ undercover murderers like yourself. Them doing them and rich and famous has nothing to do w/ your life. You would probably still be a loser just wishing for another celebrity news to break so you could hate on them. Where would your world be w/o them. Probably rounding up regular people on a plane. You insane freak.

Meeting to discuss National System of Marine Protected Areas
Public Information Meeting about Acadia National Park's
Inclusion into a National System of Marine Protected Areas
At the request of the Acadia National Park Advisory Commission, the National Park Service (NPS) and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) will host a public information meeting to discuss the nomination of Acadia National Park into a National System of Marine Protected Areas of the United States on April 13, 2010 from 1:00-3:00 p.m. at the second floor meeting room of the Maine Grind, 192 Main Street, Ellsworth, Maine.
Under a 2000 Presidential Executive Order (#13158), Acadia National Park's intertidal zone and estuaries are considered to be a Marine Protected Area. The Executive Order defines a Marine Protected Area as any areas of the marine environment that have been reserved by Federal, State, Territorial, Tribal or local laws or regulations to provide lasting protection for part or all of the natural and cultural resources therein. The Executive Order required NOAA and the Department of the Interior (DOI) to establish a National System of Marine Protected Areas to share science information and technologies and to strengthen management of the areas within the National System.
The DOI and NOAA are seeking public comment about a proposal to include Acadia National Park's intertidal zone and estuaries with other currently protected Federal, State, and territorial marine protected areas as members of the National System of Marine Protected Areas. Benefits of joining this national system include a facilitated means to work with other existing marine protected areas on issues of common conservation concern and an opportunity to compete for grant funds that are available to members of the national system.
The inclusion of Acadia National Park's intertidal zone and estuaries into the National System of Marine Protected Areas will not convey any additional authorities to the NPS or NOAA to regulate or restrict uses, activities or access within the park. Membership in this national system will not extend the boundary of Acadia National Park beyond what Congress established in 1982 and 1986. The park boundary extends to mean low water. This situation will not change if Acadia National Park joins the National System of Marine Protected Areas.
The information meeting will include short statements about the National System of Marine Protected Areas from the representatives of the NPS, NOAA, and Maine Department of Marine Resources. There will also be an opportunity for the public to ask questions.
For more information, please contact David Manski at Acadia National Park at e-mail us or 288-8720.
Did You Know?
Acadia National Park's carriage road system, built by John D. Rockefeller Jr., has been called "the finest example of broken stone roads designed for horse-drawn vehicles still extant in America." Today, you can hike or bike 45 miles of these scenic carriage roads in the park.

Woodlawn Panthers get best of Assumption
Published: Saturday, August 23, 2008 at 8:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, August 22, 2008 at 11:38 p.m.
NAPOLEONVILLE -- After finishing with a 4-6 record in 2007, the Assumption Mustangs got back in the saddle to start the 2008 campaign on Friday night, but Woodlawn of Baton Rouge proved to be a tough test.
The Panthers got the better of the Mustangs with a strong pass rush in the fall scrimmage.
We have a lot of work to do, Assumption coach Shawn Preston said.
We have to shuffle players around both offensively and defensively. But thats what scrimmages are for -- to diagnose problems and we got a good diagnostic.
Assumption had a couple of key offensive linemen out.
The Mustangs arent strangers to the injury bug after having last years standout quarterback James Landry miss much of the season due to various injuries.
Tailback Darius Bell left the scrimmage early with a concussion.
The Mustangs were also missing another one of their key tailbacks.
You never know when injuries are gonna come, Preston said.
So you just have to play with the hand youre dealt.
Starting at quarterback this season for the Mustangs is John Mabile
We couldnt get a good evaluation on him because he had a lot of pressure in his face, Preston said.
Much of our problem was up front with the offensive line, but Jordan Mills our offensive tackle played good in spots. Defensively, we need to not give up the big play.
The Panthers scored three unanswered touchdowns off plays outside the red zone in the exhibition.
Central Lafourche at New Iberia
At New Iberia, in the 12-minute live quarter of Fridays scrimmage Central
Lafourche and New Iberia played to a draw.
Each team scored twice in the live quarter for a 12-12 final.
The Trojans got scoring runs from running back Byron Thomas and quarterback Cobie Savoie during the quarter.
Before the live quarter, the first units went 10 plays, then the second units went eight plays and so on in the controlled scrimmage.
Trojans coach Chad Callais said his offense did well, but the defense needs a little work.
I thought offensively we did all right, Callais said. But we lost seven players on defense, and we have some things we need to clean up.

The Sound and the Furyby William Faulkner
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
"I give you the mausoleum of all hope and desire. . . . I give it to you not that you may remember time, but that you might forget it now and then for a moment and not spend all of your breath trying to conquer it. Because no battle is ever won he said. They are not even fought. The field only reveals to man his own folly and despair, and victory is an illusion of philosophers and fools." —from The Sound and the Fury
The Sound and the Fury is the tragedy of the Compson family, featuring some of the most memorable characters in literature: beautiful, rebellious Caddy; the manchild Benjy; haunted, neurotic Quentin; Jason, the brutal cynic; and Dilsey, their black servant. Their lives fragmented and harrowed by history and legacy, the character's voices and actions mesh to create what is arguably Faulkner's masterpiece and one of the greatest novels of the twentieth century.
From the Trade Paperback edition.
First published in 1929, Faulkner created his "heart's darling," the beautiful and tragic Caddy Compson, whose story Faulkner told through separate monologues by her three brothers--the idiot Benjy, the neurotic suicidal Quentin and the monstrous Jason.
From the Trade Paperback edition.
