Frontiers of Efficiency
What conservation potential assessments tell us about 'achievable' efficiency.
approach used, technical potential assessment tends to be complex. It requires compiling and carefully examining a large number of technologies, their costs, potential impacts and how they interact with energy systems and each other. This requires an enormous amount of data and sophisticated computations.
Economic potential is—at least conceptually—much easier to estimate. At the basic level, it requires calculating a benefit-to-cost ratio for each measure with a technical potential, and screening the list of measures for cost-effectiveness. The TRC or its variants are the most widely used criteria with a decision rule: if the conserved energy cost is less than the cost of energy it displaces, the measure is prudent. The cumulative potential for measures meeting the criterion is considered economic. In most studies supporting utility planning initiatives, hourly analysis is conducted to capture the full system-wide capacity and energy benefits for individual measures. This step makes assessment significantly more complex.
Estimating achievable potential is more difficult simply because it involves making assumptions about notoriously illusive consumer behaviors and decision-making. Achievable potential emphasizes consumer motivations to adopt conservation measures or barriers preventing them from doing so. These questions not only involve the actual economic return, but individual consumer perceptions of the cost and potential benefits of conservation.
Methods of estimating achievable potential either rely on experience or are derived from behavioral models of technology diffusion—models that predict whether a conservation measure is adopted according to simple assumptions about the consumer's "payback acceptance." However, evidence from existing literature suggests neither approach is entirely satisfactory. In several studies, achievable potential has been expressed as a range of values, derived from variants of a conventional technology diffusion model simulating consumers decisions to invest in energy efficiency according to expected returns and how they are influenced by available incentives.
Experience-based approaches either rely on other CPA results, or else look to the achievements of past conservation efforts (made locally or in other geographic areas). Either approach can be problematic. The past might not effectively predict the future because consumers participating in early conservation program stages might be driven by different motivations compared to later participants—known as the "early-adopter" phenomenon. We can never know with certainty whether a market has been saturated, and benchmarking against other programs requires making inferences across geographical areas, such as utility service territories. This can be problematic because utilities may have unique service areas, and their experiences may not be transferable.
How Much Can We Conserve?
Since 2000, a swelling number of CPAs for electricity and natural gas have been produced in the United States, appearing in a wave that seems to crest every five years or so. They differ in their orientation, geographic scope, time horizon, and method. Largely, they are either policy-oriented attempts by non-governmental organizations (NGOs) or advocacy groups to advance policy on energy efficiency policy, or planning-oriented studies by utilities that support activities related to resource planning and program design. The geographic scope of these studies may be limited to a single utility service area, or may cover an entire state, region, or country, depending, it would seem,

Pricing Negawatts
DR design flaws create perverse incentives.
this is inefficient and someone would bear the $50 loss. Who bears that cost depends on how the ISO recovers its payments to the customer's ARC.
To motivate a retail customer to offer prices reflecting the full economic value of its associated energy reductions, the ARC should pay the customer the energy market price less the customer's MFRR. Knowing that its MFRR would be netted off the payments it receives, the customer would have a strong incentive to offer prices that fully and accurately reflect the productive values of the associated energy reductions.
Paying a retail customer the energy market price less its MFRR, produces the same net result as paying the customer the energy market price for the energy it "resells" to the wholesale market through its ARC and requiring the customer to purchase that energy from its LSE under its retail tariff. FERC initially adopted this sale-for-resale paradigm as the basis for declaring jurisdiction over retail customer DR, but no longer relies on it. 11
In reality, neither the retail customer nor its ARC injects energy into the transmission grid when the customer reduces its load in response to an incentive payment. Thus, DR isn't the typical sale-for-resale in which energy is purchased by one entity and simultaneously resold to another entity. What the retail customer sells through its ARC isn't physical energy, but rather a call option on energy.
Defining a Negawatt-hour
A retail tariff endows the customer with call options to purchase energy in any hour at a strike price equal to the marginal energy price in its tariff, i.e., at the customer's MFRR. By reducing its energy usage in some hour in return for a payment from an ARC, the retail customer effectively sells to the ARC a call option that matures in that hour. The ARC then resells the option to the ISO which, in turn, resells it to one or more wholesale buyers. All of these purchases and sales trade financial products, not energy.
Because an ISO is revenue-neutral, the amount it pays the ARC for a call option must equal the amount it collects from wholesale buyers. One obvious beneficiary of such a call option is the load-serving entity (LSE) serving the retail customer that originated the call option. This is because the option, if retired unexercised, relieves the LSE of the obligation to purchase the option's underlying energy at the market price in the hour of maturity and sell the energy at a loss to the retail customer. Thus, the LSE voluntarily will pay up to the market price minus MFRR for the option, at which price it will be indifferent to whether the demand reduction occurs.
Obviously, the LSE would prefer to free ride by enjoying the benefits derived from its customers' demand reductions while letting someone else pay for those reductions. Such free riding can be avoided if the ISO recovers the DR payments from the LSE whose retail customers provided the DR. For example, assuming a given ARC's customers all were served at retail by one LSE, the targeted

Post subject: sound issues - snd-intel-hda in 90k
i've had some buggyness under 90k, system lockups which i thought were related to yum/yumex but then appeared to be quite random. i tried fedora 9, and got the same thing.
i suspect it is something to do with the sound, as there is some general weirdness going on with the mixers - levels jumping up and down, muting, etc.
have any of you had similar problems with the snd-intel-hda module? i tried running both the alsa and oss mixers, and had the same crashes.
it all works fine in 70k, which is what i've reverted to as my wife is in the middle of a masters and we can't have any crashes right now!

i've basically got that board coz a friend in spain, a linux noob, bought a barebones dell tower and installed ubuntu. he was having so many sound issues, i bought the same board (a thirty quid asus as i remember, cheaper than the cost of umpteen international phone calls...) to see if i could replicate the problems. it lasted a week before i blagged it and it worked perfectly until i tried 90k.

The nuclear renaissance might be postponed, but technologies continue advancing. The next generation of plants will apply innovation for safety, efficiency, and modularity.
Nuclear Standoff - Nuclear Breach
Federal failure to fulfill spent-fuel obligations creates expensive risks.
simplifying assumption that the plant generates a uniform sequence of after-tax cash streams over its life. A simple NPV calculation of these three cases indicates the nuclear risk premium, including SNF uncertainty, decreases the actual purchase price by between 11 percent and 44 percent, with a midpoint of about 24 percent from what the plant would otherwise have been worth on a NPV basis. For an $80 million acquisition, these risk premiums imposed on the entire investment translate to a value diminution ranging from nearly $9 million to more than $32 million. The mid-point is $19.3 million or roughly 24 percent decrease on the $80 million spent.
These results are scalable. For a $200 million acquisition under similar simplifying assumptions, a 20-percent IRR increases the value of the claim by between $22 million and $80.3 million with a midpoint of $48.3 million. A $400 million acquisition ranges from $88 million to $160.3 million with a midpoint of $96.3 million.
The SNF component of the nuclear risk premium can be inferred from these results using a variety of standard financial engineering methods. For some plants faced with an imminent shutdown, the SNF component accounts for risks in the range of 90 percent of the total.
Again, these results are based on simplifying assumptions (i.e., uniform net after-tax cash streams), and might not reflect other aspects of the transaction structure (i.e., any commodities or assets with salvage value, or that can be sold easily in a liquid market). By comparison, in the Boston Edison case, Edison's expert testified that the SNF premium was $38.7 million, based on market experience that places SNF's impact at Pilgrim in the range of 500 basis points to 750 basis points, depending on deal structure.
Clouding Nuclear's Future
As claims made by NSP and Boston Edison in their court cases attest, risk has real costs. There are also consequential effects. Risk impacts the risk capital a company must set and cuts into liquidity. Unhedged and uninsured risks are borne by the available risk capital. If a loss is realized, thereby overwhelming the firm's available liquidity and risk capital, the firm fails.
As seen with market and capacity factor risks, such risks typically are hedged to some degree using physical and financial instruments. Decommissioning trust funds ensure adequate monies are available after plant retirement, but the balance between risk and available risk capital impacts the value of a company's securities. Rating agencies are taking a growing interest in the risk capital levels at energy firms. The balance between exposure level and available risk capital can be an important factor in the credit rating. In some cases, a company might find its rating agency imputing debt to cover potential risk exposures insufficiently hedged or unduly exposed to counterparty or systemic risk.
These standards are impacting balance sheets at a difficult time for the industry. Over the past year or so, utility stock prices have declined generally. Kilowatt-hour deliveries are down as much as 8 percent with industrial sales often much worse. Some companies face significant pension shortfalls due to market declines.

Keith Clearwater was not what you'd call a huge fan of Microsoft Windows. It wasn't that he didn't like the operating system; he had just never really felt the need to use it. "He was pretty much an Apple user," relates Tyler Jennings of Imperium Smart Systems, the Pleasant Grove, UT, firm hired by Keith to add a whole-house entertainment system to his 8,500-square-foot abode. But that was before Keith saw Windows Media Center in action. "When we showed him how easy and clean the Media Center interface was, he was ready to convert," says Jennings.
"Until Media Center, I had never run across an offering that could organize all of my entertainment content and would be easy enough for my entire family to use," Keith acknowledges. There was just one issue: Media Center is an operating system that traditionally runs on a Microsoft Vista PC, a setup that would have required the six members of the Clearwater family to huddle around a tiny computer monitor to hear a song, watch a movie or view family vacation photos. "A better solution for our family would be one that would let us access the content from anywhere in the house," explains Keith. Ready to extend the reach of Media Center to several individual entertainment areas, he and his wife, Sue, hooked up with local home systems installation firm Imperium Smart Systems. The result would be an entertainment-rich network where every TV screen could function as a Media Center navigation menu. Using a handheld remote, the family would be able to scroll through their music, video and photo collections as easily as they were able to navigate using the mouse on their family computer. And here's the best part: Whatever the family chose to watch or listen to would be delivered directly to the appropriate TV screen and room speakers. "The system is smart enough to recognize where you are," says Jennings, "and send the entertainment there automatically."
Content Is King
Entertainment options run the gamut in the Clearwater household. For starters, there are the hundreds of CDs that were ripped onto the hard drive of the family's new Lifeware media server, a machine developed by Exceptional Innovation to work with Microsoft Windows Media Center. The 2-terabyte hard drive also holds personal videos and digital photos. The Clearwaters can also use the Media Center interface to access TV shows stored on the Media Center digital video recorder, DVDs loaded in a Sony megachanger, tunes stashed on an iPod, or anything stored on or plugged into one of two Media Center PCs. "My music choices are through the roof," says Keith. "And all the options are right at my fingertips. It's the ultimate toy, and I'm the biggest kid in the house." Keith, Sue and the kids can also tap into a Russound whole-house audio distribution system to hear AM/FM radio and cable stations in any of 12 independent listening zones. Because the Russound system is tied to the Lifeware server, the Clearwaters can use the Media Center navigation screen to select which zones to have the music sent to.

The Robert H. Smith School of Business infuses global opportunities and perspectives into our students' education to create a global mindset. Our student population of 5,100 comes from 96 countries and 30 percent of our 200 faculty hail from beyond U.S. borders. Many others teach and conduct research on a variety of international business topics. Smith is proud to have a truly international curriculum which includes a strong undergraduate International Business major with more than 200 students and nearly 20 courses that focus on international business and cross-cultural issues.
The Office of Global Initiatives spearheads the internationalization of Smith's students, faculty, staff, alumni, research, curricular, and co-curricular activities. The Smith School offers robust global opportunities such as:
- Exchange programs with 14 partners in Asia, Australia, Europe, and the Middle East
- Short-term study abroad courses in 12 countries
- International consulting projects
- International internships
- Annual China Business Plan Competition at Peking University in Beijing
- Leadership Executive MBA program in China
Globalization is a two-way street at Smith. Not only does the Smith School send more students abroad than any other school at the University of Maryland, but we host significant numbers of international students on campus. Such a high degree of global connectivity, including a vast Smith School alumni network of 55,000 alumni in 58 countries, offers significant opportunities for networking and career-building before and after graduation.
- 600+ Smith students study abroad each year (30 percent of all UMD students who study abroad)
- Smith hosts 170 incoming international students on exchange and short-term programs annually
While we encourage our students to take advantage of our extensive global opportunities, students do not necessarily need to leave College Park to gain a global perspective. To this end, Smith offers a blend of on-campus academic and social programming to help our students achieve a global mindset and get to know their peers, faculty, and international students outside of the classroom. For example, experience one of Hinduism's most important festivals with South Asian dancing and food at Smith's annual Diwali Night celebration or simply invite the German exchange student in BMGT 446 out to lunch. Undergraduates are encouraged to join the International Economics and Finance Society (IEFS), an internationally-focused Smith student organization that has diverse social, academic, and professional-oriented activities.

Great job uncle Bob storage. So glad you are there. I was very impressed with Dave and his staff. I checked out the location before and had some concerns. That was with the previous owners. So happy when I came back again that Dave was there and that was new management. I actually rented one space and then came back for another. Excellent customer service!Caroline from Camp Hill, PA

I was blown away by how nice the facilities are. My only complaint is that NO ONE IS EVER THERE DURING OFFICE HOURS. I've called many times and visited many times and only saw 1 person working there that actually helped. I had to call the corporate number for things that could have easily been handled if employees were actually there during office hours. Otherwise good stuff.Brett from Mechanicsburg, PA

When I was being wait on there was another customer that came in and Dianne stop to take the other customer payment and then came back to continue waiting on me. I felt that she should have finish the first customer that she was serving. The storage was empty & clean but there was a few cobwebs with spider in them.Marsha from Harrisburg, PA

You were able to get me into a storage unit the same day that I inquired about one. Incredibly friendly. I appreciated the walk through of the storage units and the best way to access my personal unit. All the paperwork was explained entirely and to top it off, I got a free pen! I would absolutely recommend this storage unit to anyone who needs one.Ashley from Harrisburg, PA
September 26, 2014
Does each of your facilities spray for spiders? My ONLY complaint is the spiders! The property Manager is awesomely professional! The only reason why I'm still renting the storage unit. Otherwise I'd been gone.Ranee from Harrisburg, PA

moved to HALP!
Our guild just made it to H Rag last night and we started working on him. Im finding that I am having zero issues with threat and TBH, Im not dying. Im just going to try to make my healers life as easy as possible due to the damage that flys around during that fight. As it currently sits, with raid buffs I am at ~91.5 ctc with standard raid buffs and no cooldowns. I have some hit pieces that I reforged out of to gain expertise to boost threat because we had some overzealous dps in our group. I might make another gearset just for rag thats all mitigation to help out.
Thanks in advance.

Your only using two for you JC gems. Also you are using them for stam, which its better to use them for mastery. I believe, I know 25's have some large burst damage at times and gemming stam is viable but it depends how close you are to full CTC.
You will want to to use the Tol Barad Resistance trinket. A lot of the spike damage you will take will be from magically sources + a boss swing, mitigating one of these helps.
Your reforging to a dps stat on your weapon, I would suggest more dodge.
[Today 06:48 PM] Ion:swimming in a natural body of water ISN'T acceptable...it's momentarily tolerable
Thanks for the catch on the the 2 jc gems. We've really been upgrading out gear as of late. Currently as it sits, rag smacks me for -70k tops per melee swing. There is a 91% chance that won't happen.As stated earlier, the expertise was there too boost initial threat since some of my dos don't like holding back during the initial pull. I might drop some exp to boost ctc a little though.
If initial threat is the only threat issue I would suggest reforging out of threat stats and using recklessness on the pull. As long as you combine it with Shield Block the temporary increase in damage taken is manageable at the pull.
I did drop my expertise from 10 to 4 and brought my ctc up to 93%. Also removed the 2 stam jc gems and replaced them with mastery gems. I also purchased another Giantslicer and reforged it for tanking and I have my other one for dps. When youre clearing HM's its amazing how fast you accumulate valor points.
I dont have the threat problems that I thought I would have. I still dont think I want to go any lower though.
As stated before, Im not having trouble surviving, but I seem to be better at taking a beating than I did before. Thanks for the help so far.
I wouldn't worry about not having expertise at all. If you're worried about initial threat, there are a few tricks you can use. Here's my pull method, I find it works very well because it gives DPS something visual to know when it's OK to actually right click on the boss. Just fyi I have SB maccro'd to devastate which is why it appears so early in my rotation.
I generally keep HS on CD while SB is up, also after I pull back from the other tank i use SB, Inner Rage, Reck, and proceed to spam HS. If you want to use this combo for opener that works too, i usually don't because it forces me to stall my GCD for a few seconds more than I'd like. Start 25ish yards from your tanking position. I believe if you heroic leap to the boss and charge in midair damage is applied for both moves. Idk if you use any type of pull timer or if you have a manual call for pre-pot, but you want to do shout and IR as DPS pre-pot. You can also pop a str pot for your initial aggro. anyway, my opener as follows:
Shout> Inner Rage> heroic leap> charge in mid-air> Dev> HS/SS> apply and maintain other debuffs (rend, TC, sunder armor, Demo shout) while keeping SS on CD and spamming HS and hitting Rev when it procs. Basically normal rotation.
So basically when DPS see me magically appear in the bosses face, they know it's ok to go Pew Pew.
Since when did charge do damage Greg? I think you're a bit too quick with putting up your debuffs (if you macro SB into dev you're getting 1 (count it) SS during your first shield Block so its definetly NOT the ideal single target opener froma TPS. Best opener for threat ignores putting up your debuffs, the OT can do the important ones easy enough, and I don't get why everyone seem obsessed with stacking sunder as fast as possible (its pretty much a 1% physical damage increase per stack) and using a proper rotation it goes up fast enough anyway (if the raid wants ths buf up ASAP make the other tank go first so you can stack it while he pulls).
shout/prepot, recklessness HT>charge/SB>SS>dev>ss/dev>ss/CB/dev
basically wou want as many HR SSs in the opening SB as possible and weaving a CB in at the point where you'e not going to shorten SS's CD. CB is a crap ton of threat (10x damage done threat modifier now)
Teng, thats pretty much the same rotation I go through to pull. So far no issues.
In my group we have a Marks hunter that sometimes forgets to MD, a 33-40k dps arcane mage, a feral kitty thats take on the whole subject is "Threat is your problem, not mine."
Yeah i just wanted to get that Greg's advice was counter intuitive if he's advising it as a maxThreat opener.

Good Morning everyone
I am trying to work out which digital camera to buy my 14 year old daughter. She currently uses her phone to take pics but is going to stay with her Daddy in France for 3 weeks in the summer and wants something better to take pics with. Also something which provides a simple way to transfer the pics to the puter.
I am a single mum and can't afford lots of money.
Many thanks

Efficiency gains, if not properly managed, can quietly take away most of the present market for electricity. But they also offer alert utilities an unprecedented opportunity to control risk,...
Saving Gigabucks with Negawatts (1985)
In an age of costly electricity and cheap efficiency, smart utilities will sell less electricity and more efficiency.
and some of the latest wind machines look profitable even without tax credits (which can hardly be said for thermal power plants). Some 7 to 10 percent of all 1984 housing starts use passive solar design. About a million solar buildings have been put up in the past five years, most of them passive and many built by people with extremely low incomes.
Among technologies coming fast over the horizon, photovoltaic costs in particular continue to drop and worldwide technological breakthroughs are frequent, although federal funding cuts have greatly reduced U.S. market dominance. Pacific Gas and Electric Company's director of photovoltaics thinks it will be fairly common by 1990 for houses in her service area to be net exporters of electricity from solar cells on the roof. One vendor already offers turnkey photovoltaic installations for $2,500 per kilowatt peak – about 10 to 15 cents per kilowatt-hour — if anyone will buy 100 MW peak, and is selling 2-MW-peak arrays which appear to be a fine industrial investment. Third-party financing is now available for wind, small hydro, solar water and process heat, cogeneration (from Roger Sant's firm, among others) some photovoltaic systems, and many efficiency improvements; it is the fastest growing financial vehicle in the energy industry.
So rapid, in short, is the progress in not just developing but actually installing practical, cost-effective renewable sources that it now appears that far from there being too few such sources to run an advanced industrial economy, there will probably be too many. That is, there will probably be attractive renewable sources which will not ultimately find a big market niche, simply because there will not be enough demand to support them all: Efficiency will beat all forms of supply. Despite many rearguard attempts to frustrate its intent, the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act, where given a chance, has succeeded beyond its proponents' dreams — so far, indeed, that the avoided cost has nowhere to go but down.
As efficiency cuts electrical demand, renewables' share of supply will become dominant. Quadrupled efficiency, other things being equal, would make the old, cheap hydro capacity already on-line supply not an eighth (as now) but half of all electricity used. The remainder could easily be filled, indeed will probably be overfilled, by a combination of small hydro, cogeneration, wind, and photovoltaics. The power they provide will be firmer than that which we get now from big thermal plants, which will have become uneconomic and unnecessary. Utilities in the 2030s will probably not be manufacturers of a bulk commodity, but rather dispatching and bookkeeping operations mediating between many dispersed sources and many dispersed users. The giant plants which dominate the grid today, by the time they retire, will have become mere historical curiosities.
Responding to Uncertainty
What does this imply for utility strategy? Because of competition from efficiency and alternative supply, and because of exogenous economic uncertainties, it is common ground that long-term demand for grid electricity is uncertain. The greater the scope for saving electricity, the greater the uncertainty: For example, a 5,000-sector least-cost analysis for Britain, based

Hi everyone,
I ended the italian translation yesterday, but it seems there are some incoerences. If anyone has spare time, please check for sentences with same meaning but different translation (e.g. task is translated as "attività" not as "impegno" almost everywhere).
We could even post any suggestion here, if we plan to change some words widely in the site...

How special is this place? When electronics installer Blake Jochum of All Pro Sound in Pensacola, FL, met with the people hiring his company, the homeowner's personal manager said, "When someone goes into the bathroom, I want it to look like there's fire on the wall." And that was just in the bathroom. The 1,800-square-foot Pensacola condo named Aqua and owned by the proprietor of the multitower Portofino complex would be for showing off and for guests. The piano is one of only three of its kind in the world, Jochum reports, and surrounding one of the flat-panel TVs in the home are knickknacks such as a Nobel Prize and an authentic Fabergé egg. There's also a water wall behind the bar and a floating and spinning granite water ball. The electronic dazzle would have to match.
"They originally wanted to control audio and video, lighting, and shading," Jochum says. "Then we asked about the security system and integrated that in." A Crestron home control system operates it all, including a Holovision door station that enables different presets for different codes entered into it. For example, the owner's entry code cues up some Sinatra on the audio system. And in entertainment mode, the lights come on, a bathroom window is opaqued, and the shades come up in two minutes so guests can be wowed. When a cleaning person's code is entered, all the lights come up to full brightness.
All Pro Sound used a Lutron HomeWorks lighting control system and Lutron Sivoia QED (Quiet Electronic Drive) shading system, with Crestron also controlling the audio and video in five zones and SpeakerCraft speakers throughout. An Audio ReQuest Fusion 120 music server delivers the tunes. Things like the water wall and the opaque glass in the master bath were connected to the system via contact closures to enable remote switches.
To the right of the bar area is the power zone, featuring a 60-inch LG plasma screen and surround-sound system. A 42-inch LG plasma is in the Audio Zone to the left of the bar, and another surround-sound system with a 42-inch Zenith plasma is in the master bedroom.Facebook and Twitter.

@lulayyyyy backstage and @iD_magazine close-up on the 'Louis' heels
Before today's Meadham Kirchhoff show, the Grazia fashion team were chat-happy over what the boys' extravagant set would be. The title of the show was 'Helter Skelter' and since Autumn/Winter 2010, Edward Meadham and Benjamin Kirchhoff have smothered the senses of their willing front row with everything from a Rococo drawing room to a teenage girl's birthday party complete with Courtney Love lookalikes dancing in baby-dolls (even Anna Wintour cracked a small smile at that one). Upon arriving in the very empty Topshop space, our intrigued was piqued…
There wasn't a single set piece in place! Was everything running horribly late? Classical music was on repeat, and the existing straight runway had been adjusted to create a large circular space in the middle of the Tate Tanks. We predicted ice skaters, automobiles, an entire circus troupe to swing out and take us all but surprise, but no, the real shock was that there were no theatrics whatsoever. Aside from some street-casting (which added further to the narrative we created for the show: see below), the focus was really and truly on the clothes. And what wonderful clothes they were.
A fellow audience member hinted pre-presentation that the theme for this season would be the circus. Cue harlequin prints, sequinned leotards and ringmaster tailcoats, right? WRONG. The Meadham Kirchhoff troupe was a melancholy one, possibly set around the late 1930s (with a dash of Edwardian stage costume), and our viewpoint was through the eyes of a privileged runaway girl. She assumed this would be a desperately romantic last resort. Turns out, it was a major, and sinister, misadventure. OK, so that's not the official line, but as a series of beautifully sombre looks took to the catwalk, you couldn't help getting swept away in the moment.
We saw a vintage sailor-inspired ensemble to a hint at a maid's outfit (a girl's gotta work hard for the money), decadent jacquard full coats (which surely belonged to her master?) and rubberised and corseted gothic dresses, soft chiffon tea dresses (that's when you get noticed) and a crisp white shirt transformed into a demure wedding gown (master finally paid attention, eh?). It was SO inspiring that Susie Bubble went so far as to tweet: "Perish the thought that King Karl may want to retire but imagine Meadham Kirchhoff at Chanel eh? #fantasyhousepairings".
Here's five things we loved more than anything else…
1. The sheer polka-dotted midi dress over trousers. This conoction is shaping up to a key new styling trick for A/W'13.
2. The glitzy hair pieces pinned into the girls' pin-curled locks. Magpies amongst us can't resist a bit of crystal.
3. The metallic shoes – complete with lace-ups, bows, cut-outs and a jaunty 'Louis' (as in Louis XIV) or 'Pompadour' heel.
4. The nude printed full-length tea dress. Something about the black lace trim on the hem and a black leather collar makes these usually twee piece look anything but.
5. Meadham's anarchic take on the classic Chanel-style boucle jacket. You wear theirs with a crop top and rubber skirt, not like a matchy matchy b***h.

The KX7 in-wall color touchpanel controller.
Remote Technologies Incorporated (RTI) is adding two new ways for homeowners to get their control on. The company just announced the KX7 in-wall color touchpanel controller (pictured right) and the SURFiR companion remote (below).
So whether you like something in-wall or something that can move around the house with you, RTI has you covered.
The KX7 is the in-wall color touchpanel controller. It's a self-contained control system with a 7-inch WVGA (800x480) multi-touch capacitive touchscreen, as well as analog and digital video viewing capability. It has an infrared output for control of devices up to 1,000 feet away, as well as an RS-232 port.

AP Drama Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- They were hooked: The moment singer-songwriter Jim James and his bandmates from My Morning Jacket first wandered into the immersive, genre-bending show "Sleep No More," there was no turning back.
The five guys spent hours wandering around the 100,000-square-foot warehouse space in Chelsea, visiting dozens of carefully designed rooms, following mysterious actors and generally having their minds blown.
"I've never experienced a piece of art like that before," James says by phone from Louisville, Ky. "The thing is just so overwhelming. And you get a sense that you created your experience."
James was so excited that he and some of the band returned the next night and he also came back a few months later. So it comes as no surprise that he picked "Sleep No More" as one of the stops on his new tour promoting "Regions of Light and Sound of God," his first full-length solo album.
He joins a long list of musicians -- from Bjork to Florence Welch -- who have become part of the experience. Now approaching its second year, "Sleep No More" has found itself evolving into a musical draw as well as a theatrical one.
"This has taken on a life of its own," Jonathan Hochwald, a producer of the show, says while sipping a rye and ginger beer cocktail in the space's nightclub as a recording of Marlene Dietrich singing "Falling in Love Again" played. "What surprised us is how versatile and open-minded not only the people are but the place is as well."
Becoming a music venue wasn't necessarily a goal when the doors opened on three empty hulking warehouse spaces on 27th Street, a spot renamed the McKittrick Hotel. It houses the show "Sleep No More," a kind of art installation-meets-theater-and-dance piece with elements of both Shakespeare's "Macbeth" and Alfred Hitchcock.
Created by the British theater troupe Punchdrunk, visitors are handed Venetian-style mask to wear and are encouraged to explore. About 25 performers act out mostly wordless scenes inspired by Shakespeare's play while dressed in 1930s outfits and giving off a film noir vibe.
The show, which doesn't advertise and relies on word-of-mouth, ends with an invitation to gather in the hotel's Manderlay Bar for a drink and to listen to the house band, an invitation some professional performers have found inviting enough to get up on stage themselves.
The punk-pop singer Pink and Police drummer Stewart Copeland, each at different times, began jamming with the band. The space inspired Perry Farrell, frontman for the alternative rock band Jane's Addiction, to renew his wedding vows in the bar after a show.
The list of musicians embracing "Sleep No More" and its haunting space include John Legend, Wyclef Jean, Meshell Ndegeocello, David Garza, Dita Von Teese and the band Chairlift. Everest and Skeleton Key had album launch parties there. Songwriter and musicians Glen Hansard turned it into an Irish pub one night.
Bjork spun records in a private party in the creepy hospital during a stop on her latest tour, while Broadway legend Joel Grey celebrated his 80 birthday in the bar by getting up and singing the chilling "Willkommen" from the show "Cabaret," an event that participants said sent shivers down their spines. The Preservation Hall Jazz Band earlier this year wrapped up a 16-show residency, adding a jazzy mournfulness to the atmosphere.
At the end of the show's regular performance on Wednesday night, James will play a concert in the main ballroom. In addition to the new songs from the CD, he'll do a few covers of songs relevant to the experience.
"The place just inspires creativity," he says. "I've seen it three different times now and every experience was different. It's kind of a limitless thing. I think that's why it's been so successful."
Hochwald says the musicians get excited about riffing off the noir vibe or Shakespearian themes explored by the show and by a space that includes a spooky cemetery, an indoor forest, a candy store and a cemetery, all beautifully realized.
"What they love is this idea of a totally different kind of gig, a totally different way of presenting of concert where your mind is completely blown, you don't know where you are but you're having this one-of-a-kind experience," he says. "It's like the next generation of how to present a concert."
The evolution of the space into a music venue is part of the show's constant updating. New rooms are being worked on all the time and new spaces are being unveiled, including a new rooftop bar called Gallow Green, which Hochwald hopes will be suitably verdant this summer to attract a late-night crowd hoping the show can go on.

Erkel Theatre - named after one of the greatest Hungarian opera composers, Ferenc Erkel - was erected 101 years ago to be the biggest music theatre in Hungary as well as in Middle-Eastern Europe. For decades it was meant to be a so called "folk opera", a theatre available and affordable for the less wealthy. In the second half of the 20th century Erkel Theatre provided hundreds of thousands of people with quality music performances, with such legends like Luciano Pavarotti and Placido Domingo singing on its stage. In 2007 the building was closed and after a break of almost six years the Hungarian government decided to invest in its renovation. The first phase of the renovation which made the theatre capable of a secure operation, has drawn to an end, so the building could open its doors again on 1st March 2013. The so called 'test operation' - a series of 81 performances in spring - has been launched with a grand opening ballet gala entitled Pas de Trois (in cooperation of the three biggest ballet companies of our country, including the Hungarian National Ballet.) The official grand opening - after the renovation of the building is fully completed - will take place on 7th November, 2013.

Tickets for performances (operas, ballets, fairy tale musicals) in Erkel Theatre can be booked online as well as via e-mail or phone ( for ticket information click HERE.)

"Back in Burning Crusade, the 12000A/12000H pair was thrown around as a "good starting point" for Karazhan raiding."
So what is going to be the new starting point? I would hate to try starting Naxx only to find that we cant do it cause I cant take a hit from a boss or my guild drags thier feet so I can make sure that I have everything I need only to discover that I was ready 3 drops ago.
In live atm, I'm sitting at 17.8k hp (not sure about the armor), so is it safe to assume that 21k is going to be a min?

"Perfect for the Occassion"
By Kerry Little
Comments: Bought this for my father for his 65th birthday to open all the memory letters we had put together for him. The letter opened looks very elegant and can be displayed nicely. The personalization looked great as well. Definitely worth more than the price!

Have a new idea?
|jfk says:
I'd love to be able to use spaces in tags. When categorising something, I often need to use more than one word, but currently the only way to do this is to combine those words into one word, which looks bad and makes the tag harder to read.
Posted at 2:07am on June 28, 2008
|veevandyke says:
+1 for this. I thought that double quotes were supposed to allow you to do this, but it's not working for me.

Latest update : 2012-10-19
Cannabis debate: 'just what is the Education Minister on?'
The French Education Minister, Vincent Peillon, has suggested France needs a debate on de-criminalising cannabis. That drew a swift rejection from Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault who said "Non, pas de débat"! Papers have put it on their front pages as the ruling Socialists lurch from one difficulty to another. One paper portrays the minister naked, with people wondering what he could be on. That's the focus for this Tuesday 16th October, 2012.

When it comes to a meticulously executed aesthetic, the Japanese can't be beat. Their attention to detail shows up in everything from the sparest ikebana flower arrangements to the Gothic Lolita-clad teens hanging around Tokyo's Harajuku railway station.
The names may seem familiar, but these are not your everyday florist flowers. Strikingly bicolor rannunculus with a loosened petal structure open up as big as peonies, and juicy cluster-flower spray roses conjure up images of pink and green popcorn puffs. These new exquisite blooms from Japan are the results of an inensive cut-flower breeding effort now poised to make a big impact here in the United States.

Boccherini: Cello Quintets, Vol. 1
Archive ServiceCDA67287
Movement 1: Allegro moderato assai
Movement 2: Minuetto con moto Trio Minuetto da capo
Movement 3: Adagio cantabile
Movement 4: Rondo: Allegro giusto
The lively major-key minuet builds its texture gradually by having the instruments enter in turn with the main theme. The idea that dominates the trio is treated very differently, the instruments all playing the same rhythm and the music switching between F major and F minor. The gracious, formal Adagio alternates highly ornamented solos for violin and cello. After we've heard the leisurely exposition twice, however, Boccherini does something quite unexpected: the martial rhythm that had ended the exposition is repeated in a succession of ferociously disruptive diminished-seventh chords. Eventually we find ourselves back in the vicinity of F minor, the quintet's home key, ready for the tranquil F major rondo theme of the finale to steal in. This rondo has a lot in common with that in the E major quintet, though it is of more compact structure. As in the earlier work, there's a slightly static but memorable main theme, with more varied, spirited music in the intervening episodes. Here the rondo theme is given delightful additions on its reappearance and the last time it comes round it is extended most beautifully. The first episode introduces an exciting eruption of quick violin triplets; the second one, back in F minor, features the darker sounds of the quintet's lower voices, interrupted by an echo of the violin's desperate flight of fancy from the first movement.

Note to 29k alpha testers
BLAG Forum Index
View previous topic

Posted: Thu Jan 27, 2005 8:59 am
Post subject: Note to 29k alpha testers
1) lets start calling this 29k instead of 30k. I think it will lessen confusion. Then when 30k is here, we'll know it's final.
2) apt-get dist-upgrade very dangerous right now.
3) For 9k, few people even saw an alpha. I didn't even post one on the 'net IIRC. I tested them myself ins & outs before releasing. I didn't even have the repo running until release time. For 10k, kind of the same story. For 19k, I did quite a bit of testing, then posted some alphas. I set up a repo pretty early. For 29k I set up a repo before I even made an install image. I posted an alpha before I had even tried it myself. You are getting much earlier releases of the alphas than I have posted in the past.
4) I like this releasing alphas super-early thing. I'm getting lots of good feedback for things to fix way before I have to spend hours testing them myself. Thanks to everyone who has risked their boxes. ;)
5) Please don't install these alphas on people's machines that are not techies. This will cause upgrade headaches in the end. People should still be installing 10k if they are newbies. Also, don't be handing out 19k CDs, except to other tester geeks.
6) I think 30k is going to be the best blag release yet (I still have a place in my heart for 9002 ;) . FC3 is a solid base (unlike fc2), the development process is streamlined, and we have lots more people giving good input. It shall be damn fine, IMHO.
7) I yanked out lots of things, but some will come back. Notably: mozilla & samba. Nautilus will be untouched, except for it's theme. Mozilla is back, for one, because it's got composer. I know there are some others, but composer is quite nice and I still run moz in those corner issues when FF is foo. It's kinda nice to have 2 good browsers (e.g. if FF completely borks, you can still get on the web).
8) If you see an error, /the exact error text/ is of great value. It's much easier to google exact text than a fuzzy search. Please pass it along, if you come across a bug. Don't worry about posting too much info--too little info makes it harder to fix. They're just bytes. ;)
9) Can anyone write a little GUI frontend for installing the things that are non-free, specifically flash & w32codec? Everyone wants these, but we have to explain /why/ we don't include them (in the program that adds them), but not make it impossible for newbies to figure out how to get some video they want to watch played. I'm thinking python or even a simple zenity script that yanks from dag or freshrpms.
10) I was over-zealous in yanking packages from these early alphas to see how I could pare things down. Packages will come back (e.g. mozilla), but I think we can really hit the 650 number instead of 700. But should we? We can include /tons/ more in that extra 50 megs, but this comes at the risk of possibly not installing on some old CDROMs. What is more important? Am I even correct about the 650 thing? How many drives are really out there that can't swing 700?
11) tor will be added:
I'm almost certain we'll be the only distro with this...
12) wiki. Slap up text on
if you think someone else may find it helpful. You don't have to write the next super-polished Don Quixote. Hell, use the wiki for your own notes--someone else may be thrilled to find that tidbit of info.
All for now,

Here's how I see it
1. I think you are right when you said refer to this as 29k(its a beta anyway)
2. apt-get dist-upgrade is not dangerous if you already have 29k installed
3. I was one of the few to try out 29k,so I should be proud of it.
4. newer cd-roms I seen for $15 anyway,so I don't see why we can't keep it over 650 megs.
5. stevo32 did have a good idea on a "lite" version...but that would only put back the release of 30k even more.
6. I think this release will put BLAG on the map(finally).
BLAG 30000 user,it runs great...BLAG owns all distros, hands down. formally demitri_88

Oh yes. Thanks for clarifying that. If you are running 29k you should be dist-upgrading all the freaking time to grab new rolls of RPMs.

By a "lite" version I mean one that is 650MB and makes the changes you were planning, like lack of Mozilla/nautilus with Samba or even lacking GNOME. By "full" I mean alot more packages on the CD, although it has to be on CD's because alot of people still don't have DVD drives/can't get DVD drives (I would fall in the can't get DVD drives category). Some stuff to include on the CD's would be an absolute ton of stuff from the repo's, and also development tools. 2 CD's would be enough, and I would definitly download it and I'm pretty sure several others would too. They could share a repo, and the biggest jump would actually be finding which packages to put on them and releasing it all.
This keeps BLAG on 1 CD AND allows a ton of packages to be released.
E-mail me at s.clement@localhost (replace localhost with sympatico.ca) or stevo32@localhost (replace localhost with blagblagblag.org).
