Furthermore, we have to consider some things if we are really interested to buy hip hop beats. Some of these things are the producer's credibility, price of a particular hip hop beat as well as the value of the beats. The credibility of the hip hop beat's producer is an important thing to think of when buying hip hop beats. As a matter of fact, we have to contact first the producer before buying beats to avoid any problems such as the beat-jacking.
This act is done by dishonest people who steal the hip hop beats of others and resells the beats. This is a problem when you want to buy hip hop beats. We should be very cautious about this so that we can get the most for our moneys. Hence, we should make sure to buy hip hop beats from credible producers only. Furthermore, the price of any hip hop beat is an important thing to consider. There are two types of hip hop beats namely, the non-exclusive and the exclusive type. Non-exclusive type of hip hop beat has a price which ranges from $0 - $75 while the exclusive hip hop beat has a price which varies from $75 - $250.
However, the latter type is more preferable since it can give us fully the ownership of a particular hip hop beat. Moreover, we also have to consider the value of the beats whenever we are into purchasing them. Actually, the real value of hip hop beats lie on the fundamental perception of the keyword and the beat's authentic value.
Indeed, we really have to consider some things as well as expose ourselves to vast beat information if we are very eager to buy hip hop beats. In this way, we can be assured of a good and splendid groove of hip hop beats which will surely lead our feet to the dance floor. If truth be told, we can really enjoy our life with the presence of lively hip hop beats. Hence, it is safe to say that such beats make our lives more vivacious and dynamic.

Rapid development of Washington key for Cardinals
For the Cardinals to have any chance of remaining the kingpin in the NFC West, second-round LB Daryl Washington must begin effectively filling Karlos Dansby's industrial-sized shoes as soon as possible.
Washington should help Cardinals more down road
Cardinals second-round selection Daryl Washington could have a bright future. But as an outside linebacker, he does not fill the hole that was opened up by Karlos Dansby's departure.

Peterson has tied the NFL record by returning his fourth punt for a touchdown in Sunday's game against the St. Louis Rams. The rookie returned a punt 80 yards in the third quarter to put the Cardinals ahead 20-10. He was untouched as he raced up the middle of the field in becoming the fourth player with four punt returns in a season.||||||| The others to share the record are Devin Hester (2007), Rick Upchurch (1978) and Jack Christiansen (1951). Christiansen was a rookie when he first set the record.
During a 30-27 loss to Baltimore on Sunday, Peterson became the eighth player in Cardinals history to have at least two punt returns for touchdowns in a single season.||||||| The last Cardinals player to accomplish that feat was Vai Sikahema in 1986.
Peterson may be a starter for the Cardinals.||||||| Greg Toler, injured in Saturday night's preseason loss to San Diego, was placed on injured reserve on Monday. The move could mean a starting assignment for first-round draft pick Peterson.
The Arizona Cardinals have reached a contract agreement with Peterson.||||||| The cornerback from LSU, the fifth player drafted overall, could be at training camp in time for Sunday's practice. Coach Ken Whisenhunt confirmed the five-year deal when he met with reporters after the team's first training camp practice on Saturday.
The Arizona Cardinals passed on a quarterback. Instead, the team used the fifth overall pick in Thursday's draft to select Patrick Peterson, a confident, highly regarded cornerback from LSU who says he expects to immediately assume the starting cornerback spot alongside Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie.||||||| Peterson, in a teleconference, described himself as a "fierce, competitive, confident young man" who brings kick- and punt-returning talents along with his ability to cover receivers and tackle. He has been timed in 4.31 seconds over 40 yards.

We would like to say that the idea for this post was inspired by something other than seeing a Youtube video of Kate Upton walking slowly down the runway. Yes, we would like to say that, but then we would be lying.
Here's 6 videos we found of sexy women doing a variety of things in slow motion for absolutely no good reason except for that it's super hot.

Ranked #1 in 8 out of the 10 evaluated specialties by U.S. News
MyPatients provides referring primary care providers with secure access to their patients' information.
Boston Children's has launched the world's 1st program dedicated to offering hand transplants to children who qualify.
First-of-its-kind international contest takes first steps toward establishing "best practices" for using genomic sequencing

Support the hospital with a donation that helps kids get the care they need.
Telling your child about cardiac surgery or catheterization can cause a lot of stress and anxiety for you as a parent. You may be worried about how to approach these topics with your child, when to tell your child and what words to use.
We understand that every child is a unique individual. Each child's age, past hospital experiences, temperament and coping techniques can affect how he or she deals with the upcoming procedure.
Here are some tips to help you through this difficult time.
The time before a hospital stay can be very stressful, since everyone is anticipating the experience in his or her own way. It's important to be aware of how your child may be feeling. Look for mood changes and worried facial expressions, so you can address your child's feelings even if she cannot express them verbally.
This is also a good time to create communication between your child and her siblings and friends. It's difficult for young children to grasp the concept of surgery, especially the words "open heart surgery."
Our Child Life specialists can help you before, during and after your hospital stay. Boston Children's Child Life specialists can be reached at 617-355-6551.
Parents often ask for information about how and when to talk to their child about going to the hospital. There are many ways to help children prepare for a procedure or overnight stay in the hospital. A child's personality, language development and ability to comprehend information can all affect her understanding of the procedure or hospitalization. Previous hospital experiences can also influence their response.
Since children develop at different rates and since each child is different, these guidelines may not describe your child exactly, but they will still help guide you.
Newborns to 2 years old: When your child is very young, concentrate on preparing yourself for the hospital. If you feel at ease, your child is usually able to sense this and react in the same way.
2 years old to 3 years old: At this age, children don't understand time in the same way older children and adults do. Talk with the doctors and nurses about how you think your child will manage best in the hospital setting. Consider telling your child about his operation or procedure one or two days before going to the hospital.
3 to 6 years old: At this age, children are beginning to learn about the days of the week and develop a sense of time. However, it's hard for a child to understand why he needs an operation or procedure. Your child may worry that he has done something wrong. Reassure him that the hospital stay is about having something fixed and is never a punishment. Use simple, short explanations. Tell a 3- or 4-year-old child about an operation or procedure one or two days before going to the hospital, and a 5- or 6-year-old-child three to five days ahead of time.
7 to 11 years old: At this age, a child is able to understand the reason for a hospital stay or procedure. You may want to tell your child about her operation or procedure a week before going to the hospital. This will give your child plenty of time to ask questions and to talk about any worries he may have about going.
12 years old to adult: At this age, it's best to include your child, teen or adult from the very beginning of the process. Encourage him to ask questions and to talk about his worries about the hospital or their medical care. Most children are struggling for independence from their parents while at the same time seeking their support. You may want to ask your teenager how you can help him through his hospital stay or procedure.
Children need to hear about their hospital stay before they begin their experience. It helps them prepare for an event, if they have time to process new information. Therefore, knowing about a procedure and hospitalization ahead of time can help build and maintain trust between you and your child.
When first telling your child about the surgery or catheterization, start by using a frame of reference, such as, "Do you remember when we took you to the clinic and they took pictures of your heart? Well, the doctor saw that your heart isn't working exactly the way it should. Your heart needs to be fixed so that it works just the right way. You need to have an operation."
Tell your child at the beginning of your explanation who will be staying with him or her. It's helpful for your child to know that he or she won't be going through this experience alone.
Keep explanations simple, and wait for your child to ask questions. This way you will learn what is important to him or her.
Be sure your child is told at a time when you will be available to him or her. Never tell your child about surgery before bedtime. A child needs time to process this type of information at his own pace, and it helps if you're there to answer questions.
If your child asks a question that you cannot answer, or do not feel comfortable answering, a good way to respond is, "That's a great question. Let's write it down so we don't forget it. We can ask a person who works at the hospital." You can call Boston Children's with the question or ask us during your next appointment.
After you and your child finish packing a suitcase for the hospital stay, take him or her directly into your room and have him help you pack your suitcase. This is a concrete way to let your child know that you are going to the hospital, too.
If this is a medical emergency, please dial 9-1-1. This form should not be used in an emergency.

Exodus: Ex-gay therapies don'twork
Mon 16th Jul, 2012 in International News
In a series of public statements, the leading force in the ex-gay movement Exodus International has now declared that "reparative therapy" doesn't work.
The leader of the ex-gay group Alan Chambers has announced Exodus will no longer be advocating for conversion therapies that offer false hope to gay practising Christians.
Open about his own same-sex attractions, Chambers is married to a woman (pictured above) and has two children.
"I believe that any sexual expression outside of heterosexual, monogamous marriage is sinful according to the Bible," Chambers said.
"But we've been asking people with same-sex attractions to overcome something in a way that we don't ask of anyone else."
Even more controversial within this community, Chambers added that he believed those who persist in homosexual behaviour could still be saved by Christ and go to heaven, The New York Times reports.
But this view in particular has sparked outrage amongst ex-gay groups.
Robert Gagnon, associate professor of New Testament at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary says: "The problem is, you can't assure people that are engaged in serial, unrepentant sin of an egregious sort that they're going to be in heaven," NPR reports.
In a 'Statement of apology by Former Exodus Leaders' published a few years ago, Michael Bussee writes: "There were some real "changes" – but not one of the hundreds of people we counselled became straight.
"Instead, many of our clients began to fall apart – sinking deeper into patterns of guilt, anxiety and self-loathing… The message always seems to be: 'You're not good enough. You're not trying hard enough. You don't have enough faith.'"
Gay Christians face a lifelong spiritual struggle to avoid sin by resisting homosexual urges, and Chambers believes virtually every ex-gay he has ever met "still harbours homosexual cravings."
A total of eleven churches have dropped out of the Exodus International community after this announcement, with many calling for charges of heresy.

Entertainment Officials Say Colleges Do Too Little to Fight Online Piracy
The Chronicle of Higher Education
Oct. 13, 2006
Entertainment-industry officials, often using pointed language, argued at a Congressional hearing last month that most colleges have not taken sufficient steps to discourage students from downloading pirated music and movie files.
At the hearing, held by a U.S. House of Representatives subcommittee, the officials intensified their attempts to press colleges to offer campuswide subscriptions to legal downloading services and to install software that can block students from trading copyrighted material on peer-to-peer networks.
About 140 institutions have signed up with such legal services, and more than 60 now use the industry's preferred blocking tool. But many campus administrators - citing, among other factors, concerns about privacy and academic freedom - have been reluctant to restrict network traffic or to encourage students to use a particular online music service.
During several previous hearings, industry representatives had sought to portray colleges as partners in the fight against piracy. But last month the heads of the largest music and movie trade groups sharply criticized institutions that have chosen not to adopt antipiracy tactics endorsed by the industry.
"We have heard the reasons for inaction: academic freedom, privacy, 'we're not the music industry's police,'" said Cary H. Sherman, president of the Recording Industry Association of America. "I have no doubt that these are real concerns. But to me, at least, they've begun to sound like excuses."
Mr. Sherman said he was "grateful" to colleges and universities that have used legal downloading services and blocked illegal peer-to-peer transactions, but he argued that "there are a far greater number of schools who do not understand, or simply choose not to acknowledge, their responsibility to help solve the problem."
Daniel R. Glickman, president of the Motion Picture Association of America, seconded Mr. Sherman's criticism of institutions that have not used the entertainment industry's preferred antipiracy tactics. "Some schools have really stepped up to the plate, and some haven't," Mr. Glickman said.
He also asked that college officials be required to provide periodic updates to the panel that held the hearing, the education committee's Subcommittee on 21st Century Competitiveness, on their efforts to curtail campus piracy.
No Requirement
Mr. Sherman and Mr. Glickman stopped short of asking lawmakers to force colleges use legal services or block peer-to-peer transactions. But members of the subcommittee did raise the specter of federal legislation.
Rep. Dale E. Kildee of Michigan, the subcommittee's top Democrat, said Congress had considered an amendment that would have stripped federal funds from colleges that did not take antipiracy measures when it debated a bill this year to extend the Higher Education Act (HR 609). The amendment, he said, was ultimately rejected as "too drastic."
William W. Fisher, director of the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard Law School, agreed with that assessment during his testimony. Mr. Fisher said software that attempts to block illegitimate file sharing may limit perfectly legal, and academically useful, applications of peer-to-peer networks. "It's not as though they are sitting on their hands," he said of colleges that have shied away from filtering peer-to-peer transactions.
Two university administrators also testified. William E. Kirwan, chancellor of the University System of Maryland, discussed his new role as co-chairman of a committee of college officials and entertainment-industry executives that is examining ways to combat campus piracy. And Cheryl Elzy, dean of libraries at Illinois State University, described her institution's plan to create "a sort of Consumer Reports for downloading services."
Maryland and Illinois State are among a growing number of public universities that have decided to subscribe to legal downloading services. Most early adopters of the services were private, often rural colleges, whose students were more likely to rely on the Internet for entertainment.
But now several factors - including promotional offers from companies and pressure from lawmakers - have persuaded some public institutions to try out legal services. Indiana State and Old Dominion Universities and the Universities of Washington and Colorado at Boulder, for example, have all recently struck deals with Cdigix, another company that offers college downloads.
In the meantime, the recording-industry trade group has sent letters to about 700 American colleges, informing them that the industry would resume its practice of suing college students suspected of music piracy. The trade group will notify colleges when it intends to sue their students, but will let those students settle cases before actually filing the suits.
"In the next few weeks," the letters say, "we will announce a new university enforcement program that focuses substantially on students who ignore warnings and continue to engage in illegal downloading of music."

NOON Envisioning an Appalachia Without Mountain Top Removal
The Keeper of the Mountains Foundation aims to educate and inspire people to work for healthier, more sustainable mountain communities and an end to mountaintop removal. Its members believe a better future in the coalfields requires everyday people to come together and recognize their power to make long-term, lasting change. These activists envision an organization, led by West Virginians, with real power in West Virginia. They support communities that want to move beyond a coal-based economy and put in its place an economy that values people, land, and mountain heritage.
1 PM Marcellus Shale and Eminent Domain
Referring to eminent domain as "legal theft," Spectra Energy Watch, based out of Bedford County, Pennsylvania, was established by landholders forced to give up their land to public utilities to support the infrastructure of extraction industries. Organizers have been part of a two-year fight pitting private landholders against eminent domain actions launched by Texas-based Spectra Energy Corporation, a natural gas storage company and backed by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). According to founder Mike Benard, "it is not a level playing field legally, economically or ethically for private property owners." Spectra Energy Watch is dedicated to educating the public on these issues.

Immerse in vivid excerpts of interviews with Southern West Virginians as they depict lives interlinked with the natural world, now impeded on by the coal dust, blasting, chemicals, and cancers from mountaintop removal near homes. Coalfield citizens outline their traditional interdependence with the land, from hunting, fishing and ginsenging to quiet times in the fields and forests of home. Feel the uplift as residents find their voices and express their outrage about theft of culture as coal companies exact their price on once-thriving communities.
Michael and Carrie Kline interviewed Appalachians and Americans from across the country this past June as they reenacted the historic 50-mile march on Blair Mountain in an effort to honor labor's struggles and to preserve this national monument from mountaintop removal. In 1921 thousands of union coal miners marched this same route to help organize West Virginia's southern coalfields. The march culminated in the Battle of Blair Mountain where ten thousand miners met thousands of law enforcement officers and security guards. Miners called halt to the raging battle when federal troops intervened. Many of these miners were veterans of World War I and would not fight against the military, who they considered as brothers. But hundreds of miners had already lost their lives in the bloody battle. The struggle wages on today, as to whether the Blair Mountain Battlefield will become a National Historic Site, or will be bulldozed for a few tons of coal, along with the surrounding landscape.

Will the Capture of 'El Chapo' Change Anything?
Tim Fernholz, Quartz
The Associated Press
After the capture of Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, head of the world-spanning Sinaloa drug cartel and a cagey escape artist who spent over a decade as a fugitive, Mexican law enforcement released a photo of soldiers surrounding the bedraggled drug peddler (see above). It was reminiscent of this picture of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein after he, too, was seized by soldiers after a long manhunt. It's not a rosy parallel: Capturing Guzman serves justice and may bring closure to the victims of his organization's violence, but just as Hussein's capture did not put an end to the insurgency in Iraq, it's not clear Guzmán's arrest will put a stop to drug violence or do much to shut down his deadly cartel.
TAGGED: Drug War, Mexico, Sinaloa Cartel, Joaquin Guzman, El Chapo

One Direction are saying bye bye to long lazy days in LA and quality time with their friends and family as they officially head back to work.
The band have been enjoying an extended break since the end of December following a crazy busy 2013, but today it's back to business for the worldwide chart-toppers. Liam Payne announced the big news on Twitter today, telling his followers:
"Back to worrrrkkkkkkk!!! Feels like 1st day of school… Ready for the social not for the work aha".
Liam's bandmate Harry Styles was spotted jetting home to Blighty this week in time for a reunion with the boys, after spending much of his time off his LA. Journalist Piers Morgan revealed her was on the same flight as Hazza from LAX on Saturday.
The former Britain's Got Talent judge tweeted: "I'm on the same flight as @Harry_Styles – bet he can't believe his luck. #SameDirection".
After enjoying their two and a half moth break, Harry also took to Twitter this week to announce the boys are back, tweeting: "Alrighty then… Back to work. Can't wait to get into rehearsals back on the road."
The band's gigantic Where We Are stadium tour will kick off on April 25 in Bogota, Colombia, before heading around South America until mid-May.
From there, they'll skip over to Europe for shows in Dublin, Sunderland, Manchester and at London's Wembley Stadium.
When One Direction won one of their two BRIT awards last month, we were naturally very excited for them. But when Harry Styles didn't turn up until halfway through their acceptance speech, we just assumed he was so excited to see Kylie Minogue and Beyonce that his little bladder couldn't take it.
So now that the 'real' reason Harry was late to meet his 1D bandmates on stage has been revealed, we actually think it makes a lot more sense – mainly because it involves the important art of styling a good quiff.
Yep, even though Hazlan said he was having a wee when One Direction were busy winning awards, it's now been shocking revealed that he was really helping Nick Grimshaw do his hair. Sounds about right, to be honest.
A source has told The Sun: "Everyone in the industry has been wondering how Harry could have missed that moment when the band were called.
"The truth is, he went off to the toilet, ended up meeting Nick and they were chatting. People were going mad looking for Harry and he didn't even realise the band had been called up, as Nick asked him to check his hair." Well, it's got to look for the telly, eh?
We can't imagine Louis is too pleased with this new turn of events, considering him and Grimmy are hardly BFFs, so maybe Harry just said he was in the loo to avoid getting majorly sassed on live TV. We would have cut off our right arm to see that.
The One Direction star is apparently planning to spend more time in the U.S., and wanted somewhere permanent to stay.
This makes him the second band member to buy property in America, after Niall Horan bought a home in LA last year.
"Harry spent a couple of weeks last year looking at properties, before finally finding one he loved, and putting in an offer," a source told UK newspaper The Mirror.
"Contracts have been exchanged and he is now a proud US home-owner. Harry's only told a few people and not many people know the exact location of the pad, but it is fairly spectacular, with an outdoor pool, home entertainment room and gym."
The 20-year-old is said to love LA because he gets more privacy there. While England will apparently always be his main home, the star is looking forward to spending more time in California.
"Harry loves LA and feels really at home there. He also gets less hassled there because people are used to seeing A-listers all over the place," the source added. "He was actually due to return to London last week but is loving it so much he extended his trip. England will always be home, but he will be spending a lot more time in Los Angeles and Hollywood now."
Harry is currently having a holiday in Los Angeles without the rest of his One Direction group. He has reportedly met with movie mogul Harvey Weinstein as well as other music industry heads.
One Direction star Harry Styles and John Legend have teamed up to write a new song.
While the 20-year-old singer has repeatedly denied that he is breaking away from his band mates, he has demonstrated the inclination to go it alone and is the first member of the group to embark on a solo project.
He and the RnB singer have reportedly written the track for US X Factor duo Alex and Sierra and it may be the first of many.
The collaboration came about after Legend's manager got the two together to see what would materialise on a musical front.
Harry Styles / Twitter
Legend who was apparently impressed with Styles' song writing skills said: "We got together for a few hours and wrote what I think is a really lovely song.
"I'd love to write with him again as he is a very great guy and very talented. He has some really great lyrical ideas and is a very good songwriter," he added.
Fans of the British pop super group needn't worry however as One Direction are in the throes of rehearsals for their global stadium tour.
Writing on Twitter Styles said: "Back to work. Can't wait to get into rehearsals back on the road."
One Direction are set to becoming the most successful band in the world earning an estimated £161 million during their forthcoming Where We Are tour.
The 88 date tour will see Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne and Niall Horan become the first act to perform three consecutive nights at the 95,000 seat Rose Bowl stadium in California.
The Wolf of Wall Street star wants to spend some time getting to know the One Direction hitmaker, and it is said his production company is willing to offer the singer a number of movie parts Hot manship alert.
Hollywood hottie Leonardo DiCaprio and One Direction frontman Harry Styles are going to hang out.
The Titanic actor has invited old Hazza to hang out at his swanky pad and talk acting roles.
And oh how'd we'd LOVE to be there.
The Wolf of Wall Street star wants to spend some time getting to know the One Direction hitmaker, and it is said his production company is willing to offer the singer a number of movie parts.
A source told The Sun: "Leo's production company Appian Way has at least ten movie projects in the works with roles that could interest Harry.
"Leo's invited Harry over to his house for a long weekend when their schedules allow to talk work and women. Bradley Cooper will probably be around too."
Fans concerned about the future of the Story of My Life boyband shouldn't be too worried though – the group went on record to dismiss rumours they could split up to pursue solo careers.
Harry said: "We're not breaking up. We've spent every day together for months and forgot what my mum looked like. It's just holidays."
His band mate Liam Payne has also rubbished claims of an imminent break-up, pointing out they have already started work on their fourth album.
"We have been writing away for the next album and rehearsals are just about to start soon for the tour. We're not splitting up.
"We're on WhatsApp messaging each other all the time, talking about song ideas and just funny stuff from our day.
"It's been a while since we have all been together so we are enjoying being back in each other's company."
One Direction star Harry Styles is reportedly having a secret romance with The Kills actress Alison Mosshart.
The 20-year-old singer, who had recently split from American model Kendall Jenner, was seen getting cosy with 35-year-old Mosshart at a nightclub during London Fashion Week, reported Contactmusic.
A source who spotted the duo said, "They were very touchy-feely in a booth and both pretty drunk. But they were having a great time together, laughing and joking with a lot of PDA. It was Harry who made the move as he was looking after her. At one point he was stroking her hair as she lay her head on the table. Harry's knack with women of any age is pretty amazing."
It's not the first time the singer has dated an older woman after he was previously linked with TV presenter Caroline Flack when he was just 18 and she was 32.
Styles was also linked to 32-years-old radio presenter Lucy Horobin, when he was 17 years, and more recently he apparently dated reality star Kendall, 18, for three months before they broke up in February due to work commitments.
We're used to Hazza being titled "Hottest Male", "Best Hair", "Best Style" or whatever, but when it comes to being named "Villain Of The Year", it takes things to a whole new level.
Harry Styles was up against the likes of Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber in the category, but NME readers thought Hazza was the most deserving of the award for the second year running.
We have absolutely no idea as to why this happens, but we're just putting it down to jealousy. Yep, definitely jealous.
Fans aren't willing to let this go quietly, taking to Twitter to express their discuss about the situation.
One fan posted: "Hope villain of the year Harry Styles stops giving his food to the paparazzi when they're hungry, skyping with sick fans." Oh yeah, can we thank this fan for pointing these things out?
What kind of "villain" gives away a perfectly good burger to a member of the paparazzi who was seemingly getting up in his personal space? Why didn't Harry just slam the door in his face and tell him to move? Oh yeah, BECAUSE HE'S NOT A VILLAIN. Jheez.
Are you as appalled at this as we are?!
How can the lovely Harry Styles be called a villain? This. Is. An. Outrage.

benefit of thermalI read that solar electric didn't help after storm Sandy. To save money solar electric installations use grid for storage. So when grid goes off so does your solar electric. Electric energy storage is expensive and doesn't last so long. Thermal storage should last indefinitely.

you need some energy from the sunto have pv or thermal provide much energy. Battery based PV can provide some storage, money buys storage. Batteries have improved and come down in cost.
Thermal energy stores well but you still need some electricity to move it around. A passive or thermo-siphon solar thermal could keep you in hot water as long as the water supply from a well or utility is online.
Plenty of folks live comfortably off grid with solar PV and thermal, maybe some wood fired supplement, LP or diesel generator to recharge battery banks after long periods of no sunshine.
A woodstove with thermal -siphon DHW allows some heating, cooking and bathing, Some pv and batteries with low energy bulbs keeps the lights on. It all depends on your needs and wants.
Prepper Mania around here in Missouri. Bunkers, batteries, large water storage, dried food, weapons to out gun them "lesser" preppers, it's crazy. I'm blown away on how much $$ some are spending, and where that money come from, to live after everything crashes?
I suppose the timing is right all the excess Y2K survival inventory has just cleared out, now a new market develops.

thermal storageis a good idea even without solar collectors in my book. Usually the simplest and least expensive method of peak shaving, it turns the coming increase of TOU-based tariffs into a major opportunity.

Does prison work?
For a certain cohort of prisoner i.e prolific burglar,should we ignore the issues of why they commit crime or intervene and challenge?
I categorise offenders as Bad / Mad and Sad and the burglars usually fall into the Sad category.To ignore their issues and send them back onto the streets as they came in,is failing society and a backward step.
To engage with them ,deal with the issues and send them out work ready is hugely beneficial to all parties.
Reduce reoffending
Reduce number of victims
Reduce cost to taxpayer
Create a worthwhile being who could pass this on to future generations,rather than the alternative of becoming a career criminal impacting on our society in a negative way..

Jul 25 2012: from my point of view the majority of prisons in their current setup never work, on the contract i see it emphasize the criminal intentions specially knowing that lots of gangs were created in prisons!
for prisons to be a place where it suppose to rehabilitate people whom were convicted with crimes, it should build programs that help them to get a profession and some sort of informal psychiatric treatment to help eliminating any hidden motives for the crime within the persons souls.
Also we should have the societies look to the people whom were in prison changed, so instead of always blaming them and make fun of them, treating them like they are part of a social disease, people should treat the like human beings, we all do mistakes that either we can get the punishment for , or escape with none. So we should look with tolerance and give them the second chance to be good people again. also note that i am not saying the all criminals are same, there are some kinds of crimes that needs a special handling and this should be taken care off while we are building such culture.

PRINCESS ANNE, Md. - As Governor O'Malley declared today as a Day Of Service, one Princess Anne organization thanks their town for all of their recent help.
Over 200 people showed up to the Service And Appreciate Day, which was hosted by G.R.A.S.P (or Generating Realistic Achievement Success and Possibilities).
With the help of the Maryland Food Bank, the group gave out 5000 pounds of produce to locals who showed up to the Manokin River Park.
They thanked their local school board, town hall and others for helping revitalize their park.
"We had a day of appreciation for all of the residents in Princess Anne and Somerset Co.," said Clifton Harcum, co-founder of G.R.A.S.P. "We wanted to acknowledge everyone's hard work."
Phillip Thomas, a co-founder of the group added, "We saw a need, we saw that we had a park in Princess Anne that was under used and figured we'd put a project together."
The group also says this is only the second phase of their Park Revitalization, which they did in hopes to have more people come out and use the facilities.

text: The place to REALLY build a winning team is by developing your quality draft picks into top line players. Losers like the Leafs give away their future for one player and never get enough to offset the lack of talent coming up thru the system. I like what Mark Parisi said about the new Dmen coming up thru the system and next year we will be better. If we had been awake at the draft table and we had picked Kopitar instead of Lee a few years ago like I wanted so badly, this would now be an incredible team. I hate when we trade away draft picks for rental players.

In just three months money has piled into the Newport Beach Bicycle Safety Improvement Fund, which was established following the back-to-back deaths of cyclists Catherine "Kit" Campion-Ritz and Sarah Leaf, and now it's time for city officials to determine how the money is spent.
Members of the city's bike safety committee met Monday afternoon, and a small group of concerned cyclists joined, to discuss the money and potential projects it could fund. According to April Morris, a bike safety fund organizer, $78,000 has been raised so far, with the city matching three-to-one or $234,000, for an approximate total of $312,000 in the fund.
With the help of the public, Morris compiled a list detailing areas which could benefit from bike safety improvements. The areas include the pinch point at northbound PCH and Dover Drive, the right turn lane on southbound PCH and Bayside Drive and improving public education.
"To some extent we are dealing with other people's money," Councilman Tony Petros, who also serves on the committee, said. "We need to make sure the staff has fully heard and vetted what people who generated the fund have to say about how it is spent."
Brad Sommers, an assistant city traffic engineer, says he has been working with Morris and expects the City Council to start discussing how to use the bike safety funds in February.
"Please don't go into this thinking 15 projects are going to happen," Petros cautioned the audience. "If we do two on the list we will have spent the money well."
Newport Beach Lt. Jeff Lu, who attends the monthly meetings and provides information on bike accidents, said there were 106 bike related accidents in 2012, down six percent from 2011. Of the 106 crashes, 54 involved a car and the other 52 were solo bike accidents.
"We all want to reinforce safety for everyone, and we all want to continue the downward trend in 2013," Lu said. "Hopefully we can continue in a positive direction."
In December Lu said there were three bike accidents. One was a solo bike rider who had been drinking and crashed into a light pole. The other two incidents were bikes and cars colliding. In one case a bicyclist was going the wrong way and the other happened when the bicyclist traveled outside of the bike lane and into the roadway.
Along with the efforts of the committee, this year a bicycle master plan is also expected to be developed for the city.
Donations to the fund can still be made by purchases on Amazon, visit newportbeachmemorialbikeride.com for more information.

UPDATED: Gunners Park cordoned off as more ordnance found in Shoebury
Updated 8:05pm Thursday 26th June 2014 in News By Helen Barnett
FOUR bombs were detonated after unexploded ordnance was found on a Shoebury beach.
Bomb disposal units were called after the find on Ministry of Defence land near Barge Pier.
Gunners Park, near the pier, was cordoned off until the detenation at about 7.20pm.
A spokesperson for Thames Coastguard said: "We put up a 30 meter cordon which did not affect traffic.
"When unexploded bombs are discovered it is detonated where it's found."
Although most of the land affected was owned by the MOD, a cordon was set up by the Coastguard office in Ness Road through Gunners Park to the housing development on the garrison site.
A cycle lane was also closed off.
Keith Holden, Southend Council's emergency planning officer, said: "Due to unexploded ordnance being found on the MOD land near to Barge Pier, a temporary public safety cordon has been put in place by the coastguard and police.
"The cordon requires part of the cycle path to be temporarily closed whilst the ordnance is attended to by the explosive ordnance disposal team.
"I would like to advise the public to please observe the cordon whilst the work is being carried out."

This past Veterans day, November 10, 2009, as for past 25th years, a growing group of veterans, historians, students and other citizens have meet, in Historic Elmwood Cemetery to honor the memory of Michigan's 102nd Regiment United States Colored Troops. The Veterans Day Ceremonies were inspired by local resident, Beulah Hamilton. It was during her visits to her husband's grave that Mrs. Hamilton noted that there was never an American flag flying over the Civil War veterans' gravesite. As a lifelong resident of Michigan I was totally unaware of the existence or contributions of the 102nd Regiment United States Colored Troops. This book is dedicated to their memory.

The Board of Visitors on Friday approved Old Dominion University's Strategic Plan for 2005-09. It includes the following seven major strategic goals for the five-year period, beginning Jan. 1:
Increase undergraduate and graduate academic quality, retain faculty and gain a national reputation for excellence (to be among the nation's top 100 public research universities).
Create an agenda and a climate that encourage research and creative activity.
Improve the quality and productivity of graduate programs.
Create a viable, lively campus community.
Integrate and improve academic and administrative programs and services.
Make the university sensitive to the people and needs of the region and world around it.
Find the means necessary to accomplish all of the above.
The board also approved adding a doctor of philosophy degree in public administration and urban policy. It will be a spinoff of the current Ph.D. program in urban services, which has existed for more than 20 years and has become outdated.
In other academic areas, the board approved the award of tenure to three faculty members, effective with the spring 2005 semester: Laura J. Harrell, civil and environmental engineering; Michael T. Tamburello, physical therapy; and Sophie K. Thompson, medical laboratory and radiation sciences.
The board endorsed a number of faculty and administrative appointments, including: Brenda Neumon Lewis as assistant dean of graduate studies, Margaret M. Camarena as director of the Social Science Research Center and James D. Wright as associate university counsel and assistant attorney general. All of the appointments became effective in November of this year.
In other action, the board approved the appointment of Lawrence J. Hatab as the Louis I. Jaffe Professor in the College of Arts and Letters. A professor of philosophy, Hatab joined Old Dominion in 1976 and is in his 10th year as chair of the philosophy and religious studies department. The board also approved granting the title of emeritus to three faculty members who are retiring effective Dec. 31: Victor A. Pickett, professor of art; Ann V. Schwarz-Miller, associate professor of economics; and J. Christian Wild, associate professor of computer science.
In addition, the board approved the awarding of an honorary degree to J. Douglas Perry, co-founder and chairman emeritus of Dollar Tree Stores.
On the recommendation of the Administration and Finance Committee, the board approved resolutions to add a north parking garage and research/office building in the University Village as technical amendments to be submitted for inclusion in the Appropriations Act of the 2005 General Assembly. The board also approved a resolution for the university to seek nongeneral fund appropriation authority for the design and construction of additional student housing to be located in a proposed new quad on campus.
The parking garage will be located in the lot next to the Ted Constant Convocation Center, which is currently used for faculty/staff overflow parking and VIP parking during convocation center events. The garage will have 5,000 square feet of retail space on the first floor facing Monarch Way. It will still be used for convocation center VIP parking and faculty/staff parking. Additional spaces will be available for hotel and retail patrons.
The initial four-story, 60,000-square-foot research/office building will be located at Monarch Way and 41st Street. Fifty percent of the building will be used by Old Dominion, while the remaining 50 percent will be leased to third parties who wish to collaborate on research projects at the university or hire ODU graduates. According to research conducted by the consultant firm Kaufman and Canoles, once the three-building research park is completed, it will create more than 500 jobs and 500 indirect jobs, and add more than $30 million in wages, $25 million to the local economy and $500,000 in tax revenue for the city of Norfolk.
The university contracted with Brailsford and Dunlavey to study the student housing market demand. The firm identified an unmet need of more than 1,000 beds and has recommended construction of up to 500 additional beds.
On the recommendation of the Student Advancement Committee, the board approved revisions to the Student Disciplinary Policy and Procedures. Among the changes is shortening from three years to one the timeframe for expunging from student records sanctions imposed on students found guilty of cheating.
According to the most recent practice, convictions are noted on students' transcripts with no possibility of removal for three years. At that point, students may petition to have the note removed from their records. To qualify for removal, students must also complete integrity training, maintain a clean academic record and prove that their infraction was not premeditated.

Valdosta - Lowndes hosting their annual Georgia/Florida challenge which pits the top high school teams in both states this weekend.
Before the Vikings game with Pace-Florida on Friday night, Lowndes honored their 1981 team which won the school's first state baseball title.
Back then, state champions didn't get rings like today's schools do.
So, 26 years after that historic win, the 1981 championship team was back at the field named after their coach Noel George.
George and the players finally got their well deserved jewelry.
Of course the many players on that Viking team didn't have a lot of time to celebrate their championship clinching win in 1981 because they had another important event to attend.
Second baseman Tony Bowden said "It was fun to win the state in baseball. Run in there and get dressed and graduate in the same day. That is what baseball is all about."
Lowndes' annual Georgia Florida baseball challenge runs through Saturday in Valdosta.
In other games on Friday, Russell County, Alabama beats Lee County 3-1.
Fitzgerald beats Worth County 9-2.
Southland wins on the road at Sherwood Christian 7-3.
In college baseball, Middle Georgia beats Darton 14-3.
Georgia squeezes by Auburn 4-3.
Georgia Tech shuts out Boston College 10-0.
Florida State is still unbeaten after an 11 inning 7-6 win over Wake Forest.
And in Statesboro Georgia Southern defeats Lipscomb 9-1.

In typical fashion, White skewers von Trier's latest (which I haven't seen yet) culminating in this lance straight to the heart:
"Malick's distorted American history also contrasts Terrence Malick's beneficent The New World, perverting Malick's artsiness and grace."
You may think there's a typo in there, but keep reading until it makes sense.
aaron | February 22, 2006 10:31 AM
I find it really hard to believe that White dislikes Manderlay. And I find it harder to believe that White probably made up his mind about the film long before he saw it. And I am just at a loss to see that White would pepper this "review" with the word "smug." It just doesn't make sense because the only smug, self-righteous, morally superior, arrogant sack of garbage I see is White. So how can he accuse others of being smug? A real head-scratcher, that one!

Oh my God...can you imagine how long Armond was sharpening his knives for this one? A Lars von Trier film about the legacy of slavery and African-American self-made slave mentality? He must have been frothing at the mouth and jumping up and down like a leprechaun in a goldmine when he heard.
Luckily, the movie does suck. Read this to find out why: http://www.reverseshot.com/autumn05/nyff/manderlay.html

A North Texas doctor weighed in Wednesday on details of a medical condition that a Frisco man says his 10-year-old son suffered from before he died.
Last week, Sumeet Dhawan said that his son, 10-year-old Arnav Dhawan, suffered from a microcephaly and a brain cyst.
Sumeet's claim came after his wife, Pallavi Dhawan, was charged with murder in Arnav's death.
"When he was born he had a couple of medical conditions," said Sumeet. "One condition is the microcephaly, which is an unusual size of the brain. The other one was he had a cyst in his brain, and the doctors had said when he was born that it could be a potential surgery, and also, potentially that he could have seizures."
"It's a measurement of the size of the head…it literally means small head," said neurosurgeon Nimesh Patel of Methodist Medical Center's Brain and Spine Institute, who isn't connected to the case.
Patel says that babies with small heads often have small brains, which can lead to developmental issues and other problems.
"When the bran isn't developed correctly, there are deficits that can happen; neurological development problems that can happen," he said. "Some of them can be learning disabilities. Some of it can be problems with seizures."
Patel says there are three causes of a microcephaly.
"One is Down syndrome," he said. "Two is fetal alcohol syndrome. The other is a generic abnormality called PKU."
Sumeet said that Arnav's condition could cause a limited lifespan, and Dr. Patel says that's true.
"Babies with microcephaly do have shortened life expectancy because of the maldeveloped brain," said Patel.
Monday, Sumeet went to Frisco police to try and get his son's medical records that wife Pallavi placed in a suitcase in her car, which was impounded upon her arrest.
Sumeet did not get the records.
How Arnav died will remain unknown until toxicology results come back. Frisco police said Wednesday that those results have not returned.
Arnav was found dead in a bathtub Jan. 30 in his parents' Frisco home.
Frisco Police said that Pallavi confessed to killing her son -- when asked by officers if she killed Arnav, they say she nodded her head, indicating yes.
Sumeet, however, denied that his wife nodded her head when she was questioned by police.

Murphy already attended camps at Oregon and Arizona State. "I really like my position coach (Eric Yarber) at Arizona State," Murphy said. "He's a great person and I feel I could learn from him. He's really intense, but a good teacher. It was really hot there, but it's a nice place overall."
Murphy has offers from BYU, Stanford and Utah State and says the Cougars lead slightly over Arizona State, Stanford, USC, California and Oregon. "BYU is recruiting me the hardest," he said. "I talk to them regularly and they text me a lot too."
Despite the separated shoulder, Murphy says he enjoyed his time at USC. "I got to meet with Pete Carroll and a lot of the other coaches too," Murphy said. "They all seem like good people and it's an exciting place to play. The told me that they just want to see how my senior season goes. We're scheduled to play Mater Dei in California this season and they said they'd be at that game."
The other camp that Murphy went to was Oregon, but he admits that the Ducks aren't that high on his list anymore. "They've dropped down a little because I haven't been in contact with them much," Murphy said. "I went to their camp and we talked, but that was about it."
Murphy says he plans to take his time before making a decision. "I'm really interested to see how these teams do this year," he said. "I'll follow Arizona State and Stanford because they are both rebuilding and up-and-coming. They have nice coaches and it'll be interesting to see how quickly they can turn things around."
He reports a 3.1 core GPA and a 20 ACT, which he will retake and is taking prep classes to prepare.

According to ESPN: there is a four team, five player trade in the works. It would break down like this:
Rockets get: Courtney Lee (NJ)
Pacers get: Darren Collison (NO) and James Posey (NO)
Nets get: Troy Murphy (IND)
Hornets get: Trevor Ariza (HOU)
I don't know how the numbers break down, but I'm guessing this is the move to get the Rockets below the salary number? More surprising than the Rockets giving up Ariza, I can't believe the Hornets are parting with Darren Collison with things being so shaky with Chris Paul.

By Mike LaBella
---- — HAVERHILL — Tyler Kimball, a late-arriving candidate for mayor, has a strategy for capturing the hearts and minds of children — and hopefully the votes of their parents.
Kimball, whose family has run Kimball Farm on East Broadway for generations, has a campaign strategy that includes teaching children about agriculture and encouraging them to read the newspaper as an educational tool.
As part of his campaign for mayor in this last week leading to the election on Tuesday, Kimball is mailing out personal letters to registered voters in Haverhill explaining why he is running and what he hopes to accomplish.
He said he planned to mail out thousands of letters this week, in time for voters to learn more about him before they cast their ballots.
Yesterday, Kimball arranged to have off-duty police officers and firefighters help him deliver 2,400 pumpkins to Haverhill's four middle schools in hopes they will spark the imagination of children and teach them about where food comes from and how crops are grown. He said the officers and firefighters volunteered their time to help with the distribution.
Kimball said he hopes students will bring home the pumpkins and, with help from adult family members, turn them into pumpkin pies, pumpkin bread or maybe a side dish for a meal as well as roast the seeds as a healthy snack. He said this member of the squash family can teach children a lot if they are willing to open their minds to the many uses of a pumpkin, in addition to carving them into fun characters for Halloween.
"I also want them to dry the seeds out, save them until next year and plant them in the spring," Kimball said. "They can either start a garden or plant them in pots and transfer them to a garden.
"I want them to learn about agriculture and nature," said Kimball, a Haverhill firefighter who is running a sticker campaign because his name will not appear on the ballot. He did not file nomination papers by the deadline.
Part of Kimball's campaign philosophy is to encourage the use of the newspaper as an educational tool. He says rather than reading the news online, he wants children to read printed newspapers in hopes they will understand their importance, from front-page news to obituaries to the importance of advertising.
"I want kids to learn about what's in a newspaper," he said. "From world news to national news to local news, I want them to learn about the world around them. A lot of things are relevant to their lives yet they might not realize it. I want them to know there's a bigger world out there. We need to make them more aware of the world and the earth."
Kimball said that even after the hours spent in school, in sports, and times spent doing their homework, children have ample time to learn about the world around them.
"The very simple thing is that kids need more to do outside the classroom," he said.
Kimball isn't running a typical campaign. He didn't start it early in the year, and by choice didn't take out nomination papers. "Elections last too long and this country has more things to focus on," Kimball said. "Maybe this will start a trend."
Kimball, 50, has been an official in the city's firefighters union, which has feuded with the mayor in recent years over short staffing, saying it put the public in danger. Several years ago, Fiorentini had private detectives tail firefighters who called in sick and filmed them moving furniture and going to youth sporting events. In 2008, Kimball, then union president, engaged in a feud with Fiorentini over contract negotiations and sick-time use by firefighters.
Kimball said he's no longer a union official and that his running for mayor has nothing to do with the union.
To further distance himself from a typical campaign, Kimball said he is neither asking for or accepting a penny in campaign contributions.
Because Kimball is running a sticker campaign, it means to cast a vote for him would require writing in his name or attaching a sticker with his name on the ballot.
Kimball is an acting lieutenant on the city's Fire Department and in the past served one year as the union president. In all, he's been on the force 31 years, the first five years as a Rocks Village volunteer firefighter.
Kimball said his qualifications for mayor include knowledge he gained of the Fire Department budget when he was head of the firefighter's union in 2008, as well as his experience in running a large farming business.
Kimball wants to better fund the police and fire departments, saying they city is in need of updated equipment and in need of updating old firehouses. But, he wants to accomplish these things without raising taxes.
He said the city's employees are its biggest assets and wants city workers to be proud of the job they do.
