A roundup of the 5 hottest new apps of the past week.
Path is overhauling its social networking application for Apple's iOS and Google's Android, adding new private sharing features as well as a premium-priced subscription option.
Dylan Casey is exiting his post as head of product management at mobile social networking app Path to join Yahoo, All Things D reports.
Sprint Nextel and social networking app Path have formed a partnership making it easier for Sprint users to find the app without having to search through the Google Play storefront. Users with Sprint's Samsung Galaxy S4, HTC One or Torque devices will have the Discover-It widget preinstalled on their phone, and the widget will spotlight select apps that Sprint recommends, including Path.
Path is once again the subject of privacy concerns after users said the social networking application texted and called their contacts without permission.
The Federal Trade Commission issued new guidelines in an effort to increase transparency in how mobile app developers, app stores and other industry players store information about users. The news comes on the heels of another FTC announcement: Social networking app Path was fined $800,000 for violating the privacy of its underage users.
Path, the mobile social networking startup headed by Facebook alum Dave Morin, has closed a Series B financing round totaling $40 million. Sources told AllThingsD that Redpoint Ventures led the

Or more specifically a holy paladin...
Tired of seeing the same two instances over and over and over again? (thanks for the variety, bliz) Need to actually get gear rather than the two items you need from the same two dungeons?
Then its time to quest! Questing involves killing mobs....
Fun game you have here blizzard.
Edited by Lawladin on 1/29/2013 9:27 AM PST
Umm pressing the activate button to go to ret spec isn't all that hard. I just leveled this toon over the past couple of weeks. Ret is much more fun than it ever was before. Still a little waiting for something to come off CD but nothing like it was years ago.
edit: and btw HS when glyphed hits like a truck while leveling. If you are trying to prove something by being a purist.

I'm picking up what you're putting down. I'm smelling what you're stepping in. I'm paying off what you're buying.
Carrying around 14 other items to do stuff on your own is now mandatory from what was optional. Really. I do understand what you're saying.
90 Human Paladin
I'm in your boat and to be honest I hate ret and not going back to prot anything... Ever... But id say just do some dungeons till you get bored then do pvp or spam denounce and quest.
Nothing else we can do unless you want to be the first person to level just from farming herbs and ore =P
90 Human Monk
If the problem is that the level range you are in only ends up queuing you for the same 2 dungeons, then that's one thing. If you are complaining that the only way that you can do content is as holy, then that's a whole different ball of wax.
If you are questing, you will get multiple quest rewards for the same slot all throughout pandaland. If you don't have a full set of main and offspec gear by the time you get done questing, then you're doing something wrong or you aren't trying.
Not only that, but you can buy a full set of lvl 85 gear that will cover your needs both healing and DPS all the way through 90 and that's buyable with a very small amount of gold.
90 Undead Priest
I leveled to 88 strictly as holy priest, and I plan to hit 90 as a holy priest, because I like it. They give more options to choose from, so if you arent happy, change your style.
I see you are angry. But i don't remember a time that any healer less smite specced disc were fun or interesting to level in holy spec. One frostweave bag would solve your problems.
90 Blood Elf Priest
I levelled to 90 on my pally as holy.
I now maintain a prot offspec, much to my disgust, to do dailies. I say this because with all the mobs that are aoe groups - once you hit Dread Wastes, you will begin to apply head to desk with astounding regularity.
Not because you die. Because the mob HP goes up so much that the denounce and HS spam gets just mind numbing.
So it's possible. I just don't recommend it, having done it, to do those last couple levels as holy.
I don't care for this lovely change that makes the "level as any spec" battlecry laughable. Not one bit. I just figure it's not worth making my questing life hell just to continue to prove the point. *sigh*
In contrast, this priest blasts through all but AoE mobs with ease, and lower gear.
EDIT; And the icing on the cake? Most of the quest rewards don't even have spirit on them if you quest as holy. With all the emphasis on spirit for regen, this made me stop and go "really???"
Edited by Shankari on 1/30/2013 7:15 AM PST
90 Tauren Shaman
Try 64.
But seriously, this is WoW. Go quest son, and actually step out of your Holy comfort zone. Ret's fun, and prot is viable too.
Threats of violence. We take these seriously and will alert the proper authorities.

Recorded on September 6, 2011
From The Heritage Foundation, I'm Ernest Istook.
It's been in vogue for office-holders and political groups to call for civility—for an end to name-calling and harsh rhetoric aimed at anyone whose ideas differ from your own.
Yet those who call for civility often refuse to practice it themselves, or to apply that standard to their political allies.
So President Obama shared a platform on Labor Day and praised a national union leader who not only called for war on the right, but used very salty language to do it. And the Vice-President called his adversaries barbarians.
There's nothing unusual about military metaphors in politics, or to talk about targeting people in politics or in business. But it's wrong to let your friends get away with things for which you condemn others.
The hypocrisy is old hat; most Americans are not fooled by selective outrage anymore. They're just plain tired of it.

VALPARAISO | Volunteers from Life Bridge, New Song Fellowship and Portage Christian Church will be collecting food donations outside of the Valparaiso Town and Country and Al's Supermarket in South Haven, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. May 18. The volunteers are a part of the Feed the Need food drive benefiting the Food Bank of Northwest Indiana. The churches have held the drive for the past seven years, and have partnered with the Food Bank of Northwest Indiana for three years.
Volunteers stand outside the stores and pass out flyers listing essential food items that pantries and soup kitchens are always in need of like peanut butter, tuna, pasta and canned goods. Shoppers can then purchase these items inside the store and donate them to the volunteers on the way out. In 2012 the drive was held at the Valparaiso and Portage Town and Country. All the items that are collected through the food drive will be donated to the Food Bank. Last year 8,263 pounds of food and toiletries was collected between the two locations.
"Life Bridge began the Feed the Need project about seven years ago to help a local homeless shelter," said event organizer Jeni Bolton. So why did they decide to partner with the Food Bank this year instead of the shelter? "In working with the Food Bank for '500 Turkeys' I knew they reached a larger area and could help more people in need. The homeless aren't the only ones hurting and in need of assistance these days. With so many people out of work, rising costs and limited resources, we felt this was the best way to reach out and help."
Chanda Dixon, Hope Project coordinator for the Food Bank, is excited about the possibilities of the drive. "We're very excited to be working with Feed the Need again. They're a great group of people who really work hard to make a difference for hungry families in our communities. Food drives like theirs really help keep the Food Bank stocked, so we're extremely grateful to Feed the Need and to everyone who donates," she said.
Life Bridge Christian Church, Portage Christian and New Song Fellowship are partnering with other organizations to make this evetn a success.
The Valparaiso Town and Country is at 1605 Calumet Avenue in Valparaiso and Al's Supermarket is located at 392 W. U.S. 6 in South Haven.

Small Modular Nuclear Reactors in reality are far from safe
PRISM – Power Reactor Innovative Small Modular, dangerous and produces toxic wastes
Small Modular Nuclear Reactors the energy option that does not stack up economically
Safety problems in the idea for floating nuclear power reactors
Floating Nuclear Power Plants Might Be the Future of Energy, VICE News, By Kayla RubleAugust 1, 2014 "…………Critics are concerned about some of the design aspects of this type of NPPs. Edwin Lyman, a senior global security scientist at Union of Concerned Scientists, told VICE News that a lot of what needs to be done to make these plants deployable is the opposite of what the industry needs to do to make their land-based facilities safer. He explained that having to build lighter reactors for use in the ocean and accessibility issues are concerns with the floating plants.
Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactor (LFTR) simply too dangerous -that's why it was stopped
Perhaps these technical problems can be overcome, but why would anyone bother to try, knowing in advance that the MSR plant will be uneconomic due to huge construction costs and operating costs, plus will explode and rain radioactive molten salt when (not if) the steam generator tubes leak. There are serious reasons the US has not pursued development of the thorium MSR process.
Reports are, though, that China has started a development program for thorium MSR, using technical information and assistance from ORNL. One hopes that stout umbrellas can be issued to the Chinese population that will withstand the raining down of molten, radioactive fluoride salt when one of the reactors explodes.

Fukushima's ice wall – a hazardous and dubious operation
Doubts over ice wall to keep Fukushima safe from damaged nuclear reactors Frozen barrier, costing £185m, being built around Fukushima Daiichi's four damaged reactors to contain irradiated water The Guardian, Monday 14 July 2014 "…..f all goes to plan, by next March Fukushima Daiichi's four damaged reactors will be surrounded by an underground frozen wall that will be a barrier between highly toxic water used to cool melted fuel inside reactor basements and clean groundwater flowing in from surrounding hills.
Up to 400 tonnes of groundwater that flows into the basements each day must be pumped out, stored and treated – and on-site storage is edging closer to capacity. Decommissioning the plant will be impossible until its operator, Tokyo Electric Power [Tepco] addresses the water crisis.
Last month workers from Tepco and the construction firm Kajima Corp began inserting 1,550 pipes 33 metres vertically into the ground to form a rectangular cordon around the reactors. Coolant set at -30C will be fed into the pipes, eventually freezing the surrounding earth to create an impermeable barrier.
"We started work a month ago and have installed more than 100 pipes, so it is all going according to plan to meet our deadline," Tadafumi Asamura, a Kajima manager who is supervising the ice wall construction, said as workers braved rain, humidity and radiation to bore holes in the ground outside reactor No 4, scene of one of three hydrogen explosions at the plant in the early days of the crisis.
But sealing off the four reactors – three of which melted down in the March 2011 disaster – is costly and not without risks. The 32bn-yen (£185m) wall will be built with technology that has never been used on such a large scale.
"I'm not convinced the freeze wall is the best option," Dale Klein, former head of the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission and a senior adviser to Tepco, recently told Kyodo News. "What I'm concerned about is unintended consequences. Where does that water go and what are the consequences of that? I think they need more testing and more analysis."
The 1,500-metre wall will stay in use until 2020, using enough electricity every year to power 13,000 households, according to officials.
Over the next eight months, 360 workers from Tepco and Kajima will work in rotating shifts of up to four hours a day, with each shift beginning in the early evening to combat heat exhaustion. Each worker is wrapped in hazardous materials suits and full-face masks, along with tungsten-lined rubber torso bibs for added protection against radiation.Tepco's record of mishaps in the three years since Fukushima Daiichi suffered a triple meltdown suggests the wall project will not be trouble free. The firm has had problems freezing irradiated water – using the same method being used to build the underground wall – that has accumulated in underground trenches, raising concerns that the ice technology is flawed…….http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2014/jul/13/doubts-giant-ice-wall-fukushima-nuclear-reactors
Freezing ducts very slowly built for Fukushima's ice wall 90 built. 1460 more to go
TEPCO: 90 out of 1,550 freezing ducts built so far http://the-japan-news.com/news/article/0001411769 The Yomiuri Shimbun 10 July 14 Tokyo Electric Power Co. unveiled on Tuesday the construction site of the ice wall at the crippled Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant for the first time since work began last month.
As a measure to halt the increase of contaminated water, the ice walls are aimed at freezing the ground around the Nos. 1 to 4 reactor buildings of the plant to block groundwater from flowing into reactor buildings and becoming contaminated.
Contaminated water at the nuclear plant currently amounts to about 500,000 tons. The government and TEPCO have been working on the construction in the hope of completing it early next fiscal year.
On Tuesday evening, about 30 workers drilled small holes about 30 meters deep around the No. 4 reactor building. Ducts to freeze underground soil are to be installed in the holes.
A total of 1,550 freezing ducts must be installed to surround the Nos. 1 to 4 reactor building area, measuring about 1.5 kilometers. However, TEPCO said only about 90 freezing ducts have been installed so far.
Due to heat exhaustion concerns during summer, workers at the construction site wear vests containing blue ice.
Meanwhile, the task of freezing tunnels filled with contaminated water using the same method involving the construction of an ice wall has been facing difficulties. The Nuclear Regulation Authority has therefore been calling on TEPCO to fundamentally revise construction plans.
Akira Ono, the chief of Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant, said: "We've already confirmed the effectiveness of ice walls through an on-site experiment. We will push ahead with the construction work forward as fast as we can."
Economics, Time, and Terrorism make a thorium nuclear industry unlikely to happen
Writing in Oil Price, Andrew Topf 18 June 2014 discusses the very real impediments to starting a thorium nuclear reactor industry
"One large hole that can be punched in the argument for thorium involves the economics of thorium reactors. Experts say compared to uranium, the thorium fuel cycle is more costly and would require extensive taxpayer subsidies.
Another issue is time. With a viable thorium reactor at least a decade away if not more, the cost of renewable alternatives like solar and wind may come down to a point where thorium reactors won't be economical. Critics also point out that the nuclear industry has invested too much in uranium reactors – along with government buy-in and a set of regulations around them – to be supplanted by thorium.
As for the "green nuclear" argument, thorium's detractors say that isn't necessarily the case. While thorium reactors produce less waste, they also produce other radioactive by-products that will need safe disposal, including U-232, which has a half-life of 160,000 years.
"It will create a whole new volume of radioactive waste from previously radio-inert thorium, on top of the waste from uranium reactors. Looked at in these terms, it's a way of multiplying the volume of radioactive waste humanity can create several times over," said Oliver Tickell, author of Kyoto2, speaking to The Guardian."
Unanswered questions about OSMRs (Offshore Small Modular Reactors)
Andrew Topf writes in Oil Price 06 July 2014"there are some unanswered questions. One is what would happen to the surrounding marine life should an uncontained nuclear meltdown occur at sea. Who can forget the Google Earth map depicting a yellow-green plume of radiation stretching half-way across the Pacific? While the authenticity of the map was later questioned, scientists have discovered trace amounts of radiation on the North American West Coast, a full three years after the event.
Another is the threat of terrorism. The MIT researchers claim that offshore nukes would be harder to attack, but on the other hand, they would also be tough to defend. Todd Woody, writing for The Atlantic, observed that defending these "nuclear islands" from terrorist assault, by ships and submarines, "would require some James Bond-like machinations," including early detection systems, barriers to vital access points, and the use of automatic weaponry"
New nuclear power, especially Small Modular Reactors, are the most costly of the low carbon energy options
The EPA carbon plan: Coal loses, but nuclear doesn't win , Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists Mark Cooper. 19 June 14 "………New nuclear capacity would be expensive. The day before the EPA carbon plan was proposed, efficiency was the least costly way to meet the need for electricity. Gas and onshore wind were next. The cost of solar was dropping like a rock, and load factors for wind and solar—the so-called intermittent resources—were rising dramatically, due to technological improvements, the rapidly falling cost of energy storage, and information and control technologies that make it possible to manage fluctuating energy sources on a minute-by-minute basis. The EPA plan does nothing to change the fundamental economics of low-carbon resources in the mid- and long term.
As a result of this economic reality, a boatload of independent analysts—including Lazard, Citi, Credit Suisse, McKinsey & Company, Sanford C. Bernstein, The Motley Fool, Morningstar, and Barclays—not only had concluded that efficiency, renewables, and natural gas would account for the vast majority of resources deployed to meet the need for electricity over the next decade, but also that the model of the electric utility that dominated the 20th century has become obsolete.
The adoption of the climate change rule is likely to reinforce the pressure to modernize the electricity system and, to the extent that it requires more low-carbon resources, it will accelerate this process. In the short term, this might have the effect of raising the cost of electricity slightly, because resources with slightly higher costs will be pulled into the market. On the other hand, because many of the alternative energy sources have not been dominant in the past, accelerating their adoption might actually lower electricity costs, because these energy sources are still at the stage of development where innovation, learning by doing, and increases in economies of scale are dramatically cutting the price.
As I have shown in a number of reports over the past five years, most recently a May 2014 report on small modular reactors, nuclear power in not one of the technologies that will benefit from the emergence of an integrated, two-way electricity system that accommodates decentralized energy production. It remains among the most costly of the low-carbon options and will become relatively more costly as the other technologies develop. The target reduction in carbon emissions under the EPA plan is well within the capacity of the lower-cost alternatives……http://thebulletin.org/epa-carbon-plan-coal-loses-nuclear-doesnt-win7253
America's MOX nuclear waste recycling boondoggle
they must stop making this radioactive trash
Failed Nuclear Weapons Recycling Program Could Put Us All in Danger io9, Mark Strauss, 7 June 14, Some government screw-ups are so epic that they require decades of effort. Such was the case for the recently cancelled plan to convert surplus weapons-grade plutonium into nuclear fuel. Not only did the U.S. waste $4 billion dollars, it increased the likelihood that terrorists could obtain bomb-making materials.
It sounded like a good idea at the beginning. Let's turn megatons into megawatts!
In 2000, the United States and Russia signed the Plutonium Management and Disposition Agreement (PMDA). Each country pledged to dispose of at least 34 metric tons of plutonium from their nuclear weapons programs. U.S. nuclear weapons contain less than four kilograms of plutonium, so the combined total of 68 metric tons is enough for some 17,000 nuclear weapons. Disposing of this plutonium would make it more difficult to reverse U.S.-Russian nuclear weapons reductions and would prevent terrorists from gaining access to the material.
The United States settled on a plan to convert most of its surplus plutonium into fuel for nuclear reactors. A massive reprocessing plant would be built at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina, which, during the Cold War, had refined nuclear material for deployment in warheads. Now, the site would have a new mission: creating nuclear fuel from a mixture of plutonium and uranium oxide, otherwise known as mixed oxide fuel, or MOX. Although nuclear power plants in the U.S. use fuel made from low-enriched uranium (LEU), other countries had demonstrated that MOX was a viable alternative.
Instead, the final outcome was a mothballed facility and a still-increasing supply of surplus plutonium. Like I said, this isn't your typical government boondoggle. It was twenty years in the making………. Continue reading
Questioning the economics of Small Modular Nuclear Reactors (SMRs)
Christian Science Monitor, Small-scale nuclear plants can be strung together and might save utilities on capital costs. But critics question the efficiency and operating costs of small-scale nuclear plants. By Ken Silverstein, June 1, 2014 The Obama administration wants to seed the United States with pint-size nuclear reactors, and this week it backed a new developer to do it. The US Department of Energy (DOE) said it would provide $217 million in matching funds over five years to NuScale, which builds small, ready-made reactors that can be strung together.
But NuScale only gets the federal funds if it can match them with money from private investors, who so far have been leery of the technology. In April, Babcock & Wilcox said it would scale back its DOE-backed plans to build modular reactors for the Tennessee Valley Authority because it failed to secure venture capital. Will NuScale do any better?
NuScale says its advantage is that 12 of its modular reactors can be combined to form a 540 megawatt unit. When one of the modules goes down, it could easily be maintained while the rest of the reactors continue to operate, so that whole facilities are not knocked off the grid. Each individual module could be refueled in relatively short order.
The cost of a 540 megawatt unit would be between $2.2 billion and $2.5 billion. That's marginally less expensive per unit of output than a traditional nuclear plant. And at that price, utilities would not be taking the kind of financial risks they might otherwise have to if they built a $15 billion to $20 billion central nuclear facility.
As a first step, Oregon-based NuScale is opening a manufacturing plant in Charlotte, N.C., where it will hire 70 employees.
"This expansion … is critical to completing NuScale's design and submitting our design certification application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission," writes Mike McGough, chief commercial officer of NuScale, in an e-mail. The company hopes to submit its design certification in the latter half of 2016. And it plans to begin signing commercial contracts by 2023.
That's a long and arduous process – just as it is for a larger nuclear plant. Typically, investors don't want to tie up their money for that long. The Department of Energy's involvement is aimed at trying to create some legal and financial certainties so they can invest with more confidence. While NuScale says that its units are more affordable than larger centrally located nuclear facilities and that they can replace retiring coal plants, its critics say that the technology lacks efficiencies and cannot compete against combined-cycled natural gas facilities.
"I wish them luck but the economics don't make sense," says Mike Keller, president of Kansas-based Hybrid Power Technologies, in an interview regarding both NuScale and Babcock & Wilcox. He adds that the smaller units are inefficient, which means that they produce more nuclear waste than their larger nuclear cousins while they would generate power at three times the current cost of a combined cycle natural gas plant.
"Having a big chunk of money [from the government] does not equal commercial success," adds Mr. Keller. "The US government should do more due diligence."………http://www.csmonitor.com/Environment/Energy-Voices/2014/0601/Pint-size-nuclear-plants-get-a-boost-from-Obama-administration
Countering the misinformation promoting Thorium Nuclear Reactors
Thorium Nuclear Information Resources http://kevinmeyerson.wordpress.com/2012/04/26/thorium-nuclear-information-resources/ There is a rash of misinformation on the net about the supposed merits of the 'new' nuclear energy source on the block, thorium. I am sure that in a perfect world where nobody lies, thorium would be the perfect answer to the world's energy needs as is claimed. This is unfortunately not the case.
Apparently, every time there is a new nuclear catastrophe, the thorium 'miracle' is promoted again as the 'savior' for the world. The Fukushima nuclear radiation catastrophe was not unique and the thorium misinformation artists have come out in droves. It's the nuclear industry's defense mechanism – create a new 'safety myth' that regular people can latch onto.
In reality, the thorium nuclear fuel cycle has been under development since the very early days of the nuclear industry. India, for example, has spent decades trying to commercialize it, and has failed. The US, Russia, Germany, and many others tried and failed as well. At best, thorium based nuclear power generation may be commercialized in a few decades.
I doubt it.
Fortunately, there are a number of independent trustworthy and expert sources of information on the internet regarding thorium nuclear. Here they are: Continue reading
USA's Westinghouse taking over nuclear fuel supplies to Ukraine, despite problems in those fuel assemblies
Chernobyl memories faded? Kiev turns blind eye to disaster risk in nuclear deal with US http://rt.com/news/159848-ukraine-nuclear-deal-westinghouse/ May 19, 2014 In order to alleviate energy dependence on Moscow, the coup-imposed government in Kiev has resurrected a contract with a US company to supply fuel to Ukraine's nuclear power plants. Using US fuel rods was banned in 2012 due to dangerous incompatibility.
The rivalry for nuclear fuel supply to Ukraine between Russia's nuclear fuel cycle company TVEL and America's Westinghouse took a twist when in April 2014, shortly after the armed coup, Kiev signed a new deal with America's leading nuclear fuel producer, Westinghouse Electric Company, instead of the Russian TVEL company that has been supplying fuel rods to Ukraine for years.
Ukraine's 4 nuclear power plants constitute a huge part of the country's energy system. The country's 15 nuclear reactors produce at least 50 percent (over 13 megawatt) of all electric power generation in Ukraine. All nuclear fuel for Ukrainian reactors (worth hundreds of millions of dollars a year) has been produced in Russia, which also recycles Ukraine's nuclear waste.
Moreover, Russia's Rosatom state-owned nuclear monopoly is currently constructing a nuclear fuel fabrication plant in Ukraine, where nuclear fuel rods will be assembled using uranium enriched in Russia.
All in all, Ukraine has relied on Russia in all atomic matters – but the West has muscled in on the relationship.
The Westinghouse Electric Company has been trying to 'ease' the former Soviet-bloc countries energy reliance on Russia and enter the market in Eastern Europe for over a decade. For that purpose the company was also using political leverage. Back in 2012, the then US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton attempted to convince Czech leaders to pick up America's Westinghouse as a primary nuclear fuel supply partner instead of Russia, which would create thousands of new jobs in the US.
Actually, Westinghouse has already supplied nuclear fuel to Ukraine's Energoatom nuclear power generator company. In 2005, six experimental Westinghouse fuel assemblies, adopted for use in USSR-developed reactors, were tried at the South Ukraine plant in one reactor together with Russian fuel rods.
Though nuclear engineers were skeptical of the pilot probe, the government of former president Viktor Yushchenko signed a deal in 2008 with Westinghouse on fuel rod supply, despite the fact that American nuclear fuel is significantly more expensive and technologically different: Russian nuclear fuel rods are hexagonal in section, while Americans produce fuel assemblies of square section
This time a batch of 42 fuel assemblies was loaded into three reactors at the South Ukraine nuclear power plant for a standard three-year period of commercial operation.
When in 2012 the time came to replace the fuel assemblies, Ukrainian nuclear engineers found that Westinghouse assemblies deformed during exploitation and got stuck in the core.
Energoatom accused Westinghouse of producing poorly engineered assemblies, whereas Westinghouse countered, accusing the Ukrainian engineers of installing the rods badly.
After the incident the use of American nuclear fuel was banned in Ukraine fuel rods were returned to the producer 'to get fixed' and Russian experts were summoned to help with the repair of the equipment produced in the USSR. The Energoatom Company lost an estimated $175 million.
Similar problems with Westinghouse fuel assemblies occurred at a number of other USSR-constructed nuclear power plants: NPP Krško in Slovenia, NPP Loviisa in Finland and NPP Temelin in the Czech Republic. All these countries opted to return to time-proved fuel assemblies produced by Russia's TVEL Company.
Now Ukraine appears to be ready to fall into the same trap twice. The coup-imposed Kiev regime has renewed the 2008 nuclear fuel deal till 2020, to replace 25 percent of the Russian-made fuel rods with an option to "provide more if needed," reported the Associated Press in April – all this for the sole purpose of 'diversifying' supply.
Kiev's interim authorities may be not familiar with nuclear energy technologies, but they surely have a clue about theconsequences of a Chernobyl-like tragedy.
What happened back in 2012 at Zaporozhskaya NPP could have potentially ended with another Chernobyl, because having unextractable fuel assemblies loaded means a potential loss of control over the fission processes inside the reactor.
But the new Kiev authorities, supported by Washington, are making every effort to cut Ukraine's economic ties with Russia, so crossing over from Russian nuclear fuel to American sounds attractive to Arseny Yatsenyuk's government despite the 2012 incident.
Furthermore, Westinghouse won't recycle its fuel rods when they 'burn out', so Ukraine will be spending even more budget money to prepare special storage facilities for nuclear waste. Also, the company may have its sights set on a much-hotter prize.
"This move by Westinghouse is really to secure not just a fuel contract, which will go on for many years, but to put its foot in the door to build a fuel fabrication plant in eastern Ukraine. And that's what's most important and that's what they're after," John Large, an independent nuclear analyst from London, told RT.
Experts generally agree that nuclear power plants are constructions that should not undergo drastic transitions. A nuclear reactor demands a coherent structure of operations. The active reactor core is the most dangerous when it comes to the impact it may have on people and the environment. All reactors differ in smallest details, and toying around with them leads to no good," Evgeny Akimov of the International Union of Nuclear Energy Veterans told RT.
And if something goes wrong, Kiev may find that they are lonely in facing the consequences.
"As far as I know, Westinghouse signs contracts in which the company bears no responsibility, so the burden will lie with Ukraine," said Rafael Arutyunyan, a nuclear security expert and professor at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology.
With Chernobyl and Fukushima being the prime examples, nuclear power is a force to be handled with great care. Yet, Kiev's actions seem to be dictated by politics rather than risks, even when the consequences may affect not just Ukraine, but the entire European continent.
When the Chernobyl tragedy occurred back in 1986, it was a pure coincidence that Ukraine's wind direction, usually directed into Europe, changed, sending radioactive fallout in the direction of Russia and Belarus.
In this over-politicized case, European capitals would do well to learn how the wind blows beforehand.

Ive got a beer that I've been working on for the last month. Two weeks in I transfered it to a secondary and added some gelatin. . . It cleared out VERY nicely. There were a few small floaties after two additional weeks in the secondary. I figured I would put it into the fridge to see if that would help to settle them down.
Two days later, and my beer is completely cloudy again
I could see through the carboy. now I cant even see a shadow through it.
What should I do?
That, my friend, is chill haze. It happens when the beers get cold and the proteins coagulate and form the haze. Give it a fortnight (love that word!) or so at 40*F and it'll clear right up.
To avoid chill haze:
- Get a strong hot break (from a fast rolling boil)
- Get a good cold break (from chilling your wort very quickly)
- Add irish moss or whilfloc to your boil
All of these techniques help is forcing the proteins that cause chill haze to drop out of solution early on.
Good idea using the gelatin but that mostly just makes the yeast drop out. You need some finings like I mentioned above. But for simplicity's sake, just get that sucker cold for a couple weeks.
Good luck!
EDIT: Are you bottling? If so, you may need to add more yeast due to your gelatin addition
If you add gelatin when the beer is cold, it will help with the chill haze as well. But if the beer isn't cold, the proteins won't be coagulated, and they won't drop out.
+1 to all of this. But, if you are patient, you can simply not worry about gelatin at all and simply let the beer chill in the fridge for 2-3 weeks. I have had even wheat beers come out crystal clear after lengthy fridge stays.

Saracens v Gloucester: Aviva Premiership preview

Saracens captain Steve Borthwick will make his 100th appearance for the club in Sunday's Aviva Premiership fixture against Gloucester at Vicarage Road.
A battle between second and third in the league, with both on 28 points, each side will be looking to dig deep for what could be a pivotal win.
Although Saracens have suffered back-to-back defeats in all competitions, they have only lost once in their last 17 Premiership fixtures at Vicarage Road.
Charlie Hodgson returns from injury to start the match at fly-half with Rhys Gill also back from a rib problem to start in the front row.
Chris Wyles starts at full-back following his spell away on international duty with the USA, and Neil de Kock is named in the team at scrum-half.
Schalk Brits and Kelly Brown are on a rest week after their involvement in the autumn internationals while Jackson Wray, Adam Powell, Justin Melck, Jacques Burger and Joe Maddock all miss out through injury.
Gloucester have also named a strong starting line-up, and with Freddie Burns away on England duty, Billy Twelvetrees will move to fly-half.
This will see Mike Tindall move from outside to inside centre and be partnered in the midfield by Tim Molenaar.
Martyn Thomas replaces Shane Monahan on the left wing as the only other change to the back-line that started against Sale Sharks last week.
Saracens: 15 Chris Wyles, 14 David Strettle, 13 Joel Tomkins, 12 Duncan Taylor, 11 James Short, 10 Charlie Hodgson, 9 Neil de Kock, 8 Ernst Joubert, 7 Will Fraser, 6 George Kruis, 5 Mouritz Botha, 4 Steve Borthwick (capt), 3 Matt Stevens, 2 John Smit, 1 Rhys Gill.
Replacements: 16 Jamie George, 17 Nick Auterac, 18 Petrus du Plessis, 19 Alistair Hargreaves, 20 Andy Saull, 21 Richard Wigglesworth, 22 Nils Mordt, 23 Kameli Ratuvou.
Gloucester: 15 Rob Cook, 14 Charlie Sharples, 13 Tim Molenaar, 12 Mike Tindall, 11 Martyn Thomas, 10 Billy Twelvetrees, 9 Jimmy Cowan, 8 Sione Kalamafoni, 7 Akapusi Qera, 6 Tom Savage, 5 Jim Hamilton (capt), 4 Will James, 3 Rupert Harden, 2 Darren Dawidiuk, 1 Dan Murphy.
Replacements: 16 Koree Britton, 17 Nick Wood, 18 Shaun Knight, 19 Peter Buxton, 20 Matt Cox, 21 Dan Robson, 22 Tim Taylor, 23 Shane Monahan.
What they said:
Gloucester director of rugby Nigel Davies
"I'm sure Saracens won't have been impressed with their performance, or their result, against Worcester last Friday and will pick it up against us this weekend.
"It's a difficult place to go and play, it's one of the smallest pitches in the league, and they know how to play that field.
"You have to be smart. You have to play a similar game to them in some ways. But you also have to be prepared to step up and take your game to them.
"They play good territory; they have a big chase and put a lot of pressure on to you. If you're not ready for it, then you'll get caught out."

Moore stepping down as DNR recycling coordinator
After more than 13 years in the post, Cynthia Moore is stepping down as Wisconsin's Department of Natural Resources recycling program coordinator. Moore will be moving to DNR's Southeast Region as the new waste and materials management regional supervisor.
"It's been an honor and pleasure to have coordinated DNR's recycling program," Moore says. "Over the years we have increased the supply of recycled materials to end users, seen new materials enter the recycling stream and improved the efficiency of administering the recycling program. None of this would have been possible without the partnership of local governments, service providers and other recycling professionals."
Until a new program coordinator is announced, individuals or RUs with questions about recycling in Wisconsin should contact their local recycling specialist. They may also contact Barb Bickford at 608-267-3548.

Spotlight on: city of Thorp, 14 in 14
The "14 in 14" campaign is underway in Thorp, Wisconsin.
Thorp, Wisconsin, is showing that small communities can boost their recycling numbers in a big way, not by spending money on new machinery or services but simply by getting people motivated.
Last fall, the city of Thorp's Sustainability Board determined its recycling numbers had decreased significantly over the past few years. Even though these numbers had rebounded slightly in 2013, the community wanted to do better. In January, Thorp launched the "14 in 14" recycling initiative, challenging the community to increase recycling this year by 14 percent. It's paid off in a big way! Through August, Thorp has shown a year-to-date increase of 20 percent, in large part due to simply boosting awareness, spreading the word face-to-face and encouraging the community to get involved.
Community members in Thorp helped construct a city recycling gauge to give residents visual feedback on their progress.
To engage the community, Thorp city workers and volunteers have talked to students at schools, sponsored recycling poster contests, distributed "14 in 14" window clings, visited area businesses to discuss recycling and erected large recycling gauges in the city to give citizens visual feedback on their recycling performance. With the help of its new hauler, Express Disposal, Thorp has also launched a "Recycling Star" program that awards one household each month with Thorp Bucks, "Recycling Ambassador" T-shirts and a picture in the paper.
"14 in 14" still has a few months left to go, but Thorp is already setting an example and enjoying improved collection numbers. City Administrator Randy Reeg says the city is also already looking forward to 2015, with plans to extend the campaign to "waste reduction" at large and set a community-wide goal of sending less waste to the landfill.

Arizona Cardinals
Notes from the Nest: Arizona Cardinals - Dec. 18
TEMPE, Ariz. -- The Cardinals got back to work Wednesday in preparation for their next biggest game of the year.
Of Note
- Coach Bruce Arians said quarterback Carson Palmer would be "limited" in practice, it appeared Palmer was not set to do much at all during the portion that was open to the media. The issue Wednesday was Palmer's ankle, which he hurt against Tennessee, and not the elbow issue that plagued him the previous two weeks.
- Cornerback Antoine Cason said it's not as easy as it looks to be the "next man up."
- Daryl Washington remembers very well what happened the last time the Cardinals played in Seattle. Not everyone will say it, but tough to imagine that not being a factor as the team prepares for the Seahawks.
- Rookie Tony Jefferson, who went undrafted out of Oklahoma, is likely going to start for the Cardinals this week. Arians said the safety doesn't have enough experience to play an entire game, but "he's going to."
Stat of the Day
Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch has rushed for 100 or more yards just three times this season, and not once in the last four games.
Quote of the Day
"No. It's not our offense or our defense," Arians said when asked if he's shown his team the tape of last year's 58-0 loss to the Seahawks. "I mean, who gives a [expletive]."
This Day in Arizona Cardinals History
On Dec. 18, 1988, the Cardinals wrapped up their inaugural season in Arizona with a 26-17 home loss to the Green Bay Packers.
It was a bit of a back and forth game, with the Packers going up 13-0 by way of a 63-yard punt return for a touchdown by Ron Pitts and a three-yard scoring run by Keith Woodside, both of which came in the first quarter. Stump Mitchell got the Cardinals on the board with a four-yard touchdown run, making it 13-7 after just one quarter.
The second frame belonged to the Cardinals, as Al Del Greco made good on a 20-yard field goal attempt and Mitchell scored again, this time from 12 yards out, to give the Cardinals a 17-13 lead. However, Larry Mason caught a 10-yard touchdown pass from Don Majkowski, and the Packers took a 20-17 lead into the half. The lead was extended when Majkowski connected with Clint Didier from two yards out, but the extra point failed (second one of the day). That was it for the scoring, though.
For the Cardinals, Neil Lomax completed 15-of-33 passes for 172 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. Mitchell tallied 75 yards and two scores on 12 carries, and Roy Green led Phoenix's receivers with 75 yards on five receptions.
On the defensive side of the ball, linebacker E.J. Junior and safety Tim McDonald recorded interceptions, with Bob Clasby and Freddie Joe Nunn each had a sack.
For the Packers, Majkowski completed 18-of-36 passes for 255 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions. Larry Mason led the rushing attack with 57 yards on 18 carries, and Perry Kemp led Green Bay receivers with 58 yards on six receptions, though Mason contributed 49 yards and a touchdown on two catches.
