2004 Carl Bertelsmann Prize: Improving performance and progress in the public sector – Organizational culture and leadership
In 2004, the Bertelsmann Stiftung recognized an organization in the public sector that not only excels in customer orientation and improved efficiency, but also emphasizes a dialogue-based management approach along with an organizational culture that focuses on the individual.
While forces within the market economy suffice to keep businesses focused on performance and progress, such motivators are often weak or even nonexistent in the public sector. But competition is essential to progress in the public sector as well. When organizations also bring committed leaders and a culture of partnership to bear, the system becomes a model for success.

Lore can you post the few minutes of extra questions you did from chat room, you answered my question about level 60 pvp gear for transmog but I had just entered an instance and only heard part of the reply :S
FINALLY!!! Someone else has noticed the devious, cold-hearted shmuck that Cho is. He is always so eager to throw us into fire.
I always interpreted Cho as being an 'absent-minded professor' type who wasn't very brave. The voice acting on Elegon I think it was ("I'll go observe...*cough* from a safer distance") seemed more comedic than sinister. Then again, maybe Lore just gave Blizzard a new plot point idea.
Someone in our raid described Cho as a "fatter, furrier, dumber Brann Bronzebeard." I think it was pretty spot on.
I don't remember if it was this PST or a previous one but someone mentioned Retribution Paladins as being OP. My offspec is Ret and I'm not topping the meters. In fact I'm generally on the bottom and I'm playing the class as perfectly as I can. Was this just a joke about the damage of Ret paladins or do I suck?

- One announcer forgot DeRozan's name, called him what's his name as he went to the free throw line
- Commentators were saying the Cavs should start hard fouling Lou, "put him on his britches". More than once.

Cut up 3 pre-cooked sausages into bite sized pieces and add to crockpot.
Double Lentil, Sausage, Brown Rice, and Spinach Soup
(Makes about 6 servings; recipe created by Kalyn.)
I used a 3.5-Quart Crock-Pot Slow Cooker for this recipe.
1/2 onion, diced very small
1 carrot, diced very small
2 large stalks celery, diced very small
1 T olive oil
1 T minced garlic (from a jar, use less if fresh garlic)
1 tsp. dried thyme
1 tsp. Spike seasoning
3 links pre-cooked chicken or turkey sausage, diced in 1/4-1/2 inch pieces (I used Aidell's Artichoke and Garlic Chicken Sausage)
1 can petite dice tomatoes with juice
6 cups chicken stock (or 4 cans chicken broth)
1/4 cup brown lentils
1/4 cup red lentils
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup long-grain brown rice (I like Uncle Ben's brown rice)
4 cups chopped fresh spinach
2 T balsamic vinegar
Stove-Top Recipe:
Use at least 1 cup more stock or chicken broth for stove-top cooking.
Heat oil in a heavy soup pot, then saute vegetables, garlic, and seasonings as above. Add diced chicken sausage, canned tomatoes, chicken stock, brown lentils, red lentils, and salt and pepper and simmer over low heat for about 45 minutes, or until lentils are soft.
Add brown rice and chopped spinach and simmer about 30 minutes more, or until rice is soft. (Check to see if you need to add a little more liquid when you add the rice and spinach.) Stir in balsamic vinegar and simmer about 5 minutes more. Serve hot, with Parmesan cheese if desired.

JTG has surprised a lot of people backstage by still being on the WWE payroll despite not being utilized much. His last appearance on Monday Night Raw was back in December of 2012, where he lost to Brodus Clay. He appeared on television just seven times in 2013.
Brodus Clay vowed to earn himself a spot on the main Wrestlemania 30 card this year, and he even managed to convince WWE officials to turn him heel and give him a character makeover. However, as of right now, it does not appear that he will be picking up enough momentum to earn that coveted spot.
Now that he has split from Tensai and is working as a heel, Brodus Clay is expected to get a bit of a makeover. A new look has been confirmed for the big guy, and there's talks that a new theme song could possibly be in the works as well.
"Hope the Brodus Clay creative direction change works. Good guy, truly a fan of the business and who has the tools, or so I feel, to be a "monster heel. Brodus was one of my favorite guys to brainstorm with back in the FCW days."
The current plan in WWE is to have Naomi and Cameron leaving Brodus Clay, who has now turned heel, and Tensai to join Xavier Woods and R Truth. The segment on Monday Night Raw this week was designed to further that story line.
Initially, the feud was designed to give the spotlight to newcomer Xavier Woods, but it now appears that WWE has shifted the attentiont to Brodus Clay and his impending heel turn instead. That's why they went with that segment on TLC last night.
After Tensai, Naomi and Cameron abandoned him during his match, Brodus Clay, who exhibited heel tendencies throughout the match at TLC, was defeated via pin fall by R Truth, who nailed his opponent with a kick to the face.
The top candidates to work the kickoff match at the TLC pay per view right now are Xavier Woods, R Truth, Brodus Clay and Tensai. There's also a chance that WWE could opt to do a singles match between Woods and Clay as well.
Initially, WWE had plans on turning Brodus Clay, Tensai, Naomi and Cameron all into heels, but with Total Divas being signed for another season, executives from E! reportedly asked the company to keep the Funkadactyls as faces.
While many fans are under the impression that it is a permanent thing, WWE might not be doing a permanent heel turn with Brodus Clay. The belief is that this is just to give Xavier Woods something to work with.
WWE star Brodus Clay revealed on Twitter that he has lost some more weight and is now down to 353 pounds.
Many within WWE are concerned about the status of Brodus Clay after the company had Xavier Woods doing his entrance with his Naomi and Cameron on Monday Night Raw this week.
Before he became a professional wrestler, Brodus Clay worked as a bodyguard. His most well known client was rapper Snoop Dogg.
Even though it does not look good right now, Brodus Clay is still pushing to get himself a spot at Wrestlemania 30.
John Cena wins Royal Rumble 2013 by last eliminating Ryback. Other contestants in the match include Antonio Cesaro, Bo Dallas, Brodus Clay, Chris Jericho, Cody Rhodes, Damien Sandow, Daniel Bryan, Darren Young, David Otunga, Dolph Ziggler, Drew McIntyre, Godfather, Goldust, Great Khali, Heath Slater, Jinder Mahal, Kane, Kofi Kingston, Randy Orton, Rey Mysterio, Ryback, Santino Marella, Sheamus, Sin Cara, Tensai, The Miz, Titus ONeil, Wade Barrett and Zack Ryder.

We just facerolled through with on 25 with zero strategy discussion, it's a really easy encounter. Easier than Emalon.
"Don't stand in the fire"
[ vine's TankUI & HealUI ] *UPDATED*
what kind of drops? He didnt drop any T9 does he?
He dropped two level 232 Tier 9 gloves on 10-man when I did it. Others got level 226 pvp or 226 Tier 8.5 items.
He drops the 2nd tier of tier 9 (trophy + emblem purchasable) in 25 man, as well as relentless Gladiator gear.
READ THIS: Posting & Chat Rules
We did him on 10man as soon as our realm came online. I must agree, compared to Emalon, he's a real push over. Just avoid the fire and your golden. No one in our 10man even got close to dying. Maybe 25man will be harder, but I doubt it.
I am pretty sure that Meteor Fists only splits damage between Koralon's current aggro target and a single target within 10 yards of that person. That's what the combat logs in our group showed at least. I'm not yet sure if it's random or closest.

So it's not a meteor mechanic so much as it is a saber lash mechanic? In any case you can just have two tanks take it, right?
Hmm yeah from looking at it it looks like you may be right, it just picked a random melee in my footage to use as cushion. Wonder if that's health or threat dependent. And yes, ideally you want two tanks. We just tend to laze our way through things.
Almost certain it's not depending on threat. I'll be running it again in the next day or so again with guild mains so I'll be able to have people arranged as I want to, to see what's up.
Also, I forgot to confirm for sure, but I believe Meteor Fist is fire damage so you can use anyone with decently high health as the split.

you can test it with just a few players also by going into VoA and grabbing the fire adds in his chamber, they cast meteor fists as well.

Aliena... I have a suggestion for you. :P
Tell that hunter in the first few seconds of the movie that fire is bad haha.
[2-07-08 08:57 AM] Enelrad: hahaha, that and you're ugly! Ugly tanks tank better
[3-19-08 02:23 PM] Enelrad: Im really a 12 yr old boy from GA
Notice: You are currently banned from the shoutbox.
Appears to be simple proximity for meteor fists. We had one person standing on me and another 5 yards behind and the one right on me took the damage every time.
didn't think about it the first time in, but don't stand in the middle, the fire is practically invisible, but it does show a debuff if you're in it
As a note his hitbox is so large that if there's a soaker, he'd better be standing in front with the tank.
We single tanked it with a dps DK to soak. He dps-ed from the back like a good dps and I ate every meteor fist solo. Was manageable on 10 man with the healer going a little worried the first time. Then we chained cooldowns on the next 3 for the kill.
Did the encounter last night on 25 man. I am fairly sure I was the sole target of meteor fist, at least no-one else seemed to take a large amount of damage when they landed. It dealt between 36 and 40k damage to me, if this was after the damage split melee should have been falling like flies. Loot was T9 (245) and relentless gladiator (1 armor and 1 ring), along with a couple of emblems of triumph.
Aliena... i'll dream about your voice... echo dream
they nerfed whirling breath on koralon or so it seemed. I only noticed 2 ticks instead of the typical 3-4 :-/

So what sort of unbuffed hp should a 25 man tank be going in with? After the nerf to DK health, I went down to 30k hp and have just finally made it back up to 32k, but I cannot seem to stay alive during the fight, even though I save my cooldowns for molten fists. I personally think it's the healing, but I'm biased. So I'm trying to determine what I could be doing better first.

Neal Augenstein, wtop.com
WASHINGTON - Fifteen years after it closed its doors, the musicians who played and the fans who enjoyed them, returned to the site of The Bayou, on K Street, under the Whitehurst Freeway in Georgetown.
The occasion: A preview screening of "The Bayou: DC's Killer Joint," a documentary by local filmmakers Dave Lilling, Bill Scanlan, Vinnie Perrone and Adam Bonsib, set to premiere Feb. 25 on Maryland Public Television.
The film was shown at AMC Loews, a few doors down from where The Bayou stood.
"I've been to The Bayou many times. I don't recognize it -- it's totally reconfigured," jokes Mark Noone, singer of Slickee Boys.
The movie recounts Noone's recollection of a show March 3, 1981.
"We had some band from Ireland that was going to open for us. We didn't know anything about them. Nobody knew anything about them," says Noone.
The opening band was U2, in its first American concert.
"The night before they did a private showcase gig in New York, but their first open-to-the-public show in America was opening for the Slickee Boys," says Noone.
One of the most popular bands at The Bayou was The Nighthawks, known for their blues and roots music.
Nighthawks bass player Jan Zukowski recalled The Bayou as a musician's nightclub, "The premier nightclub in the whole area to play."
Zukowski remembered the club's sound, lighting systems and high stage, which promoted an intimate connection with the audience.
"They had the balcony that went around. It was incredible, especially when it was packed -- oh, my lord, what a feeling," Zukowski said.
Producer Dave Lilling described one of the most bittersweet moments in the film -- the final performance by Eva Cassidy, the Maryland singer who died of cancer at 33.
Weeks before her death, Cassidy was honored at The Bayou by the Recording Industry Association of America.
"She was very ill. Everybody knew she was very ill. She came onto the stage on a walker. She had the wherewithal to perform two songs -- 'Red Top,' with Chuck Brown, and 'What a Wonderful World,' which is of course here signature song.
Six weeks later, Cassidy died.
The documentary has been 14 years in the making.
"It's a real labor of love," Lilling says, noting filmmakers are $30,000 in the hole for production costs.
"We just wanted to get it finished," says Lilling.
"The Bayou: DC's Killer Joint" premieres Monday, Feb. 25, at 9 p.m. on Maryland Public Television.

Svyturys Ekstra Lager
"Fresh-cut hay and cracker-like maltiness in the aroma. Uniform smoothness does well to add a huge refreshing quality. Lots of pale malt flavor, with hints of baked apple and delicate floral hoppiness. Very clean throughout, with a finish that lands dry. The label notes that it is unpasteurized, which is certainly noticed. A standup lager—worth a go." Rated 3.5/5

WASHINGTON - The mayors of D.C. and Seattle have a bet going ahead of today's game, vowing to fly the other city's flag if their team loses.
Now, a pair of county executives is adding to the pot.
Prince George's County Executive Rushern Baker has made a wager with his counterpart, Dow Constantine, the county executive of King County in Washington state, where Seattle is located.
If the Redskins win, Baker will receive a case of some of the best coffee from around the Seattle area, including Starbucks and Seattle's Best.
If the Seahawks win, Constantine will get a case of Eight O'Clock Coffee, which is based in Landover, Md.
And an added wager has Baker really pulling for a Redskins win.
"Mentoring month is January, so [I'll be] watching him do his mentoring in a Redskins jersey," Baker says. "If by the off chance the Redskins lose, I'll do the same in a Seattle jersey."

SPAIN AND THE WORLD VOLUME 1, NUMBER 11. MAY 1st, 1937. PRICE 2d.—U.S.A. 5 CENTS. Consider the origin of all fortunes, whether arising out of commerce, finance, manufactures, or the land. Everywhere you will find that the wealth of the wealthy springs from the poverty of the poor. KROPOTKIN. (Conquest of Bread) Iran, San Sebastien, Durango .... to-day Guernica. Franco, Spanish Patriot and Christian, massacres women and children from the air, while British and French politicians discuss further means of betrayal. Workers! Show your solidarity with the Basque comrades by imposing your will. Demand active intervention in favour of the Spanish workers fighting for liberty against Italian and German regular Army and Air Force. Now .... before Bilbao and its heroic people are wiped out. MAY 1st, 1937: ITS SIGNIFICANCE It seems appropriate to us that a whole page of this issue should be dedicated to our brave Comrades of Catalonia. For it is they who are defending not only Spanish territory with their armed fists, but they are also defending the noble ideals which prompted the workers of Spain to take up arms against Fascist invasion. They are advancing with the Social Revolution: new enterprises are springing up everywhere, thereby freeing the country from foreign Capital; villages and small towns are being collectivized even where the C.N.T. and F.A.I. have not yet penetrated, such as the village of Peza which boasts of 5,000 inhabitants, or as at Llerena where 500 armed workers confiscated the land from the landowners, and defended themselves against the assault guards with such success that the latter had to leave the village in hurried confusion. To-day, the workers of this country will be celebrating the 1st May. Are they going to flock in their thousands to Hyde Park and just listen to their M.P.s or labour leaders speak from the coal-cart pulpits, uttering their usual stock phrases of workers' emancipation, and working class Freedom without accompanying them by action. This year perhaps will be added the fact that Mr. Lansbury thinks Hitler a great fellow; that he has had the honour of shaking hands with one murderer and hopes soon to go to Italy and shake hands with the other murderer, and remark what a good, and peaceful fellow he really is. The workers of this country should resolve that this May 1st, should be the beginning of a thorough and not half-hearted campaign on behalf of our Spanish comrades. Let us take as an inspiration the Chicago Martyrs, and the Spanish Martyrs; the hundreds of thousands of Spaniards, the Durrutis. the Ascasos, who have so generously shed their blood in the name of workers' freedom and emancipation. Italy and Germany have succumbed under the mailed fist of Fascism. Spain was to have suffered the same fate at the hands of International Fascism. The people resisted. They have checked the advance of fascism; in many parts they have defeated it. They have succeeded where others have failed because from the outset they were masters of their actions. They had not men of the Bevin type to consult for every step they took toward their Freedom. This is the lesson to the British workers. This is the lesson to the thousands of transport workers who are to-day threatening a strike. The successful outcome of their action depends on their own sense of responsibility. Once they put power into the hands of their leaders their movement is doomed to failure. Workers! Return to your homes this May Day resolved that your efforts on behalf of the Spanish workers cause will be intensified, by voice of mouth, through our press and by direct action. That you will resolve to contribute to the best of your ability to the work of human solidarity that is being carried out for the relief of suffering and exposure of the civilian population to the murderous attacks of Franco's war planes and warships. Finally, that you will not neglect the workers' struggle in your own country. For, by intensifying your activity for your Freedom as well as the Freedom of your fellow workers, you are fighting indirectly for the Spanish workers' cause. A strong, militant working class in this country could have avoided all this bloodshed in Spain. Your submission to the Bevins and Citrines of your Unions has brought about the betrayal of the Spanish workers. Enough of these bourgeois leaders! The Unions need a rank and file of conscious, militant and convinced workers. Let this be your resolution this May Day, in the most momentous year of International workers' struggle against Capital and Oppression! THE FALL OF MALAGA Government's Criminal Negligence Responsible Regarding the Fall of Malaga, reports appeared from various sources which did not altogether correspond with the true facts of the case. Some went so far as to actually lay the blame for its fall on the heads of the Anarchists. The Communist and Socialist organs of the World Press even did not hesitate to repeat these lies - lies which can only serve the interests of the Fascists and by no means those of the Anti-Fascist United Front in Spain. We give below details on the Fall of Mallaga which were reported by persons actually engaged in the fight and belonging to the various parties. As far back as AUGUST last, the representative of the C.N.T., R. PERA, as well as GIRALT, the representative of the Popular Front and the U.G.T., reported that the Fascists were marching in the direction of Algeciras, and that it was imperative to strengthen the defensive forces. A demand was made for 10,000 rifles, 16 machine guns, 3 cannons of 17.5 and 10.5. In OCTOBER a delegation of the Popular Front waited upon Largo CABALLERO, to present the necessity for strengthening the defence of Malaga and to ask for more arms. Caballero's reply was that not a single rifle, nor a single cartridge could be given for Malaga. There were no anti-aircraft guns available, although the town was being daily attacked by machine guns from the air and from as low a height as 200 metres. Colonel LUIS ROMERO (a member of the Communist Party since 1931) communicated daily this fact, either by telephone or telegraphically, to the Government. Romero's reports were supported by the F.A.I. of Malaga. Yet nothing was done. The C.N.T. of Malaga established a munition factory where 1,000 persons were busy manufacturing equipment for the troops. In November, another deputation was sent to interview Caballero, to put full details before him as to the position of Malaga and to impress on him the dangerous state of affairs. The Government's reply was again in the negative. An Economic Committee was appointed in Malaga, composed of representatives from all parties. The Committee again applied to the Government. They pointed out that this Committee, consisting of representatives from all parties, Marxists, Anarchists, etc., of the Popular United Front, was urgently in need of munitions in order to fight against Fascism. The C.N.T. -F.A.I. represented the majority of the militiamen in this region. Their request was left unheeded. General JOSE ASENSIO (Caballero's Minister for War), the Deputy State Secretary-General, refused to supply any arms for Malaga. At this juncture, the Defence Committee of Barcelona sent 500 grenades of 17.5, 600 bombs, and a number of cartridges to Malaga. Malaga Completely Neglected The Socialist Government of Madrid had completely neglected Malaga. The War Commissar of Malaga took away even the last three cannons from the Federal Column, which cannons had been posted in the district of Estepona, and handed them over to the Marxist battalion MEJICO. Also some machine guns were withdrawn from the Federal Column of Estepona. The Commandant PELAYO was relieved of his command, because he was under suspicion to be in sympathy with the Confederates, i.e., the C.N.T. As a result of this, Estepona fell into the hands of the Fascists three days later, and thereby they moved 25 kilometres nearer to Malaga. After this defeat of our forces, brought about by the withdrawal of arms, the Government relieved Colonel HERNANDEZ ARTECA of his post and replaced him by Colonel Villalba. The latter came from the Aragon Front, where he had by no means distinguished himself. Between the fall of Estepona and the fall of Malaga there was an interval of twenty days. During that time, the Government at Valencia was daily adjured to send munitions, in view of the fact that the imminent fall of Malaga became daily more threatening. The Scouting Service of the Confederates' Column "Juan Arcos," informed the Government that 32,000 Italians and Moroccans, equipped with 150 tanks and a proportionate amount of other war material, were advancing towards Malaga. Colonel CREMEN, too, supported this, and insisted on the demand addressed to the Government for immediate supply of arms. Only Four Machine Guns In the meantime, the Fascists continued their advance. Safarraya was hard pressed by them. On February 5th a Conference was held of all the Anti-Fascist organisations and parties, where the dangerous situation was discussed. It was decided to put up resistance. They only had at their disposal 28,000 cartridges, a very inadequate quantity of hand grenades and 4 machine guns. They hoped for continued overleaf BUJARALOZ Bujaraloz is a large township of some 2,000 inhabitants. It possessed three churches and seven chapels. None were destroyed. The People's Committee has its headquarters in the former town hall. As at Fraja and countless other communes which we crossed after leaving Lerida, Libertarian Communism has been established and extends in fact over a larger area than that through which we have passed. Money has been abolished and the principles of Federalism have been applied to the entire social and economic life of the people. New Villages Before the revolution there were two syndicates; the U.G.T. and the C.N.T. At the time of the Fascist rising, the two organisations, which had concluded a pact of revolutionary alliance as a result of the Congress at Saragossa held by the C.N.T. in May 1936, declared a general strike and began expropriation. The Fascists, in their flight, seized three comrades whose fate is not yet known. The food cards are in red and black, the colours of the C.N.T.-F.A.I. Members of the delegation have been asking in view of the fact that money has been abolished, how correspondence is franked, and how newspapers are received. The numbers of the People's Committee have replied that a free newspaper service is offered to all the libertarian communes and that in place of the stamp the mark of the two syndicalist organisations, U.G.T. and C.N.T., is affixed. In any case, in the cities where money circulates all organisations use the same method for franking postage. The Responsibility of the U.G.T. and the C.N.T. in the Communal Life A committee for exchanges with the outside world is also in operation and has been set up by the syndicalist organisations. Conversations are in progress so as to establish regional statistics and, later, to place the whole on a national basis, including the other libertarian communes. Education The School, before the revolution, consisted of four schoolmasters and schoolmistresses. The School now includes seven members for the instruction of the pupils. They live on the same basis as the rest of the population. The Communal Organisation of Work All workers are arranged into groups; each day the group appoints a new delegate. In the morning each group calls at the Committee to obtain instructions as to the work to be done on that day. Each assembly of the people fixes the work to be done between any two meetings and the Committee divides it between the various groups or teams. In the evening the representative of each group (his power ceases after the day's work) gives an account of the work done and gives the name of the group representative for the next day, who will see to the next day's work. It is easy to see that it is the people who set themselves the task, and that all traces of authority have disappeared. A Memory of the Sombre Past Here is a picture of the existence of the rural populations before the revolution, a people who to-day have been reborn into a new existence. A few landed proprietors possessed almost all the land and the agricultural equipment available. The peasant, who hired the land necessary for him to live together with his family, gave 50% of the crop instead of money. As he was too poor to own the equipment necessary to carry out the work in the fields as well as the harvest and the threshing of the corn, he was dependent on the owner who possessed all the equipment and thus he was obliged to give a further 10 or 15% of his harvest for the use of the equipment. Add to that the various contributions and taxes with which a capitalist society burdened him, (whatever such a society may have called itself) and we realise that a peasant was deprived of at least two-thirds of his work. As for the agricultural workers, they earned 4 pesetas 50 per day; they had to board and feed themselves on such a sum. The Squires A rich owner of land in Bujaraloz owned 14 threshing machines and earned with his son 25 pesetas each from the government in virtue of their work as agriculturalists!

Panamax's BlueBolt system that allows remote monitoring and control of products plugged into IP-addressable power conditioners will expand to plug-level monitoring throughout the house with the addition of smart plug-in modules and a gateway.
The MD2-ZB plug-in module has two outlets and status lights so electronics not mounted in a central rack can be monitored via ZigBee wireless RF technology. The $100 module works with a BB-ZB1 gateway that transmits and receives signals from the modules and is connected to a home's networked router.
A cloud-based web interface provides information such as power consumption in watts or amps, and allows custom electronics pros to reboot components when needed. Up to 30 smart plug modules can be used on one gateway. The products can be used with existing BlueBolt components or independently.
The products were initially shown last year and will be available in November, the company says. Panamax expects that eventually BlueBolt products will be used more for energy monitoring and management than just remote rebooting. The products will be available through custom electronics dealers and possibly retail.Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.

Getting music all around the house would be a whole lot easier if it weren't for those pesky wires getting in the way of everything.
Proficient has an answer to that called ZERO (for zero wires, I presume). The company is showing off the new product at this week's CEDIA Expo.
ZERO is built on the company's AirFlex system, and is said to be able to transmit stereo audio up to 90 feet. The two-part system consists of a transmitter, which would connect to your receiver or pre-amp, and the receiver/amplifier that gets placed wherever you want your sound. Connect a set of speakers to the wireless receiver, and you're done.
Among the new features is the ability to expand the system to include eight receivers per transmitter. The receiver also has an IR pass-through capability, which allows you to use your original equipment remote (from your home theater receiver, for example) in the room the ZERO receiver is located.
Each ZERO transmitter includes three analog audio channels and a digital optical. The system can also be used for wireless surround speakers in a home theater setting. The receiver outputs 35 watts per channel (two channels) via a built-in digital amplifier.
A complete system (one transmitter and one receiver) will run $450. Additional receivers are priced at $250 each.Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.

Anatomy of a high-speed car crash
Why bad things happen when you leave the road.
By July 9, 2013 / Photos by Getty Images
A lot of controversy surrounds the fatal car crash of reporter Michael Hastings. Theres no accident report yet; no toxicology report, either. That might take months, as high-profile cases like this often involve a lot of lawyers. Even when theres less controversy, a fatal car crash will involve insurance companies, legal wrangling, and in most states and some major cities (like Los Angeles), a Collision Reconstruction Unit (CRU). Think of it as CSI for car crashes: Investigators painstakingly sift through evidence to make sure that they can accurately say what happened during an accident. All of this means it could be a very long time for official findings on Hastingss accident to be released.
But even without official reports, theres no lack of information about his deadly wreck.
Whats known is that a camera mounted on the dash of an LAPD cruiser showed his C250 running a red light at a high rate of speed around 4:20 a.m. on the morning of June 18, 2013. Just a few minutes later, the same cruiser was called to the scene of the accident, where the C-class was engulfed in flames after apparently hitting a tree, its engine ejected from the hood of the car. Hastings was found in the drivers seat, burned beyond recognition.
Immediately, conspiracy theorists jumped to conclusions. Because Hastings had blown the lid off General Stanley McChrystals insubordination and was a pioneering muckraker, Internet posts started spinning the idea that Hastingss car had been sabotaged. C-class Benzes just dont blow up like that, the theories went; and their engines dont randomly pop free of their mounts and fly out from underhood.
Without some form of foul play, how could Hastingss crash have been so violent, so deadly?
Sadly, the answers weve found almost entirely point to the less-exciting conclusion, that when a car hits a stationary object like a tree, a brick wall, or a telephone pole, very bad things happen. Heres the grim how and why.
Next UpAnatomy of a high-speed car crash, continued.

Deregulation is being tested by a series of crises, from a devastating hurricane to the Wall Street meltdown. Regulators and companies are applying the lessons learned to strengthen the Texas...
Carbon and the Constitution
State GHG policies confront federal roadblocks.
renewable power sales. 63 Promotion of certain types of low-carbon renewable fuels for power supply, via a price preference above and beyond the FERC-established price of other wholesale power transactions, was held preempted by the Federal Power Act and stricken.
Precedent holds that a higher price set by California for renewable low-carbon electric power supply sources isn't permissible. 64 If a state is prohibited from inflating the quantity of certain renewable resources by setting higher wholesale prices for such favored technologies, it also could be prohibited from accomplishing the same tilt in wholesale prices by the opposite mechanism: inflating the wholesale operating costs of what it deems less desirable high-carbon-emitting generation resources via carbon-emission allowances. This same relative tilt in the wholesale market is achieved if high-carbon sources of power have their costs of operation increased, which decreases their ultimate position in the operation dispatch order.
A state law may not frustrate the operation of federal law, even if the state legislature has a valid purposes for the legislation. 65 The wholesale price determination is reserved exclusively to federal authority. 66 In Snohomish County Public Utility District No. 1 v. F.E.R.C., 471 F.3d 1053, 1080 (2006) aff'd in part and rev'd in part sub nom. Morgan Stanley Capital Group, Inc. v. Public Utility District No. 1 et al., 128 S. Ct. 2733 (2008) , the court affirmed that the federal government, through FERC, must protect all stakeholders in the electric wholesale market against any state regulatory actions or mistakes. FERC has an ongoing obligation to continually monitor and police wholesale markets against impermissible actions or mistakes. Id. at 1066-67, 1080.
The RGGI states and California operate under FERC-approved terms and conditions for ISOs. 67 The respective ISOs manage the electricity transmission grid and oversee wholesale electricity markets. All power sold into the grid, which is managed by the ISO, is sold under wholesale terms and conditions that are part of its approved FERC tariff.
Bullet-Proof Carbon Regulation
First, because states do not want the carbon-reduction costs they impose on their in-state generators to attract higher-carbon power from out-of-state power imports, they seek virtually to secure the borders, or at least surcharge and dissuade the intruding power flows. Because the states are attempting not only to regulate carbon produced within their borders, but also create carbon-regulated islands into which externally-produced wholesale power can no longer enter freely without penalty, there are Commerce Clause issues. Wholesale electricity moves in interstate commerce at near the speed of light. While it's perfectly understandable why certain states see this as a policy imperative, their actions trip over historic legal prohibitions against impeding the free flow of articles in commerce based on the geographic point of origin of that commerce.
Second, the decision of most of these states to maximize associated revenues by auctioning all of their newly created allocations to emit carbon triggers Supremacy Clause concerns. Again here, the motives may be worthy: public money is limited, carbon emissions loom large on the policy landscape, and auctioning allocations to emit carbon maximizes public income while rationing the

Get the Bamboo Backscratcher and get sweet relief
Amazing how that itch knows exactly where to strike just out of reach from every angle. Only solution? Have a good backscratcher on hand and not the human kind that groans and says theyre busy. Richly finished, solid bamboo backscratcher is easy and comfortable to use, with a 21 long handle to reach every nook and cranny of your back, even if youre of the tall persuasion. Extremely strong, renewable bamboo (translation: its green-friendly). Handsome leather wrapped handle. Gentle curve is ideal for reach and applying leverage to that elusive itchy spot.

Best Uses
This was a gift and a nice one. But within a month, the first tooth broke off, with no unusual stress. Now, I'm down to a single tooth.
Judging by other reviews, I must have gotten a defective one.
Best Uses
I wanted an unusual gift for a friend that would last forever. The back scratcher was the perfect gift. The length is long enough to reach every itch possible. Very pleased and impressed.
Best Uses
The best made, most comfortable underwear I have ever worn. Highly recommend. Try a pair.
Best Uses
The teeth as they are, are a bit of a tease. Once I sharpened them, I can quiet any itch.
Best Uses
I've given these as Christmas gifts for years, but no one has taken the hint that I wanted one. So I bought it for myself. My only complaint is that the loop at the end of the handle is a little small.
Best Uses
This backscratchers is the best around,very we'll made & worth every penny ! Love it !

UGA Leading the Way in SEC Academic Initiatives
I never cease to be amazed by the achievements of UGA, its students, faculty and alumni. UGA continues to lead the way in the Southeastern Conference and I am pleased to share two updates with you today:
First, the inaugural Southeastern Conference Symposium will be held in Atlanta this month. Led by UGA, this year's SEC Symposium will address renewable energy across the range of disciplines represented by the SEC's 14 member universities. It will showcase each institution's academic excellence and underscore their educational and economic contributions to the vitality of the region, nation and world.
Two UGA faculty members will present during this year's symposium: Director of the Biomanufacturing and Bioprocessing Program Joy Doran-Peterson (BSED '81) will discuss education and outreach, while Dr. C.J. Tsai will focus on biomass feedstocks.
The second piece of news I'd like to share is that Dr. Loch K. Johnson, a faculty member in the School of Public and International Affairs, received the first SEC Professor of the Year award. This award will honor one SEC faculty member each year whose record in research, scholarship and service places him or her among the elite in higher education.
Dr. Johnson holds the title of Regents Professor, an award given by the University System of Georgia to faculty whose scholarship is recognized nationally and internationally as being innovative and pace-setting. He is also a Josiah Meigs Distinguished Teaching Professor, UGA's highest honor for teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
The UGA Alumni Association is proud of the University's continued academic leadership within the SEC. I never tire of hearing news like this and look forward to more of it in the future!
Information for this article was sourced from the SEC Symposium Website and SEC Digital Network.
For a complete list of speakers and an overview of sessions at the 2013 SEC Symposium, please visit www.secsymposium.com.
Check out the 2012 SEC Professor of the Year commercial that is airing through the SEC basketball season.

2014 International Education Week
This week, the UGA Alumni Association joined the campus community in celebrating International Education Week.
"International Education Week gives us the opportunity to recognize and celebrate the role of international education in providing a well-rounded education and equipping students with the competencies for living and working in an intercultural environment," said Kavita Pandit, associate provost for international education.
Not only does UGA encourage students to travel and study abroad, the university also welcomes international students to call UGA home. Interacting with students from other countries - working on class projects, living in the same dorm, sharing a meal in the dining hall - creates a greater cultural and global awareness and helps prepare students for whatever life holds.
The UGA Alumni Association believes in the transformative power of international educational opportunities and is proud to support various study abroad scholarships across campus. Since 2006, it has have provided more than $50,000 in study abroad scholarships. Such funding has allowed students to study abroad in a varity of places, including Cortona, Costa Rica and Oxford.
Joey Sharp '15 was recently profiled as a UGA Amazing Student, where he shared the lasting impact of his study abroad experience.
The summer after my sophomore year I received funding from the Honors International Scholarship Program and spent 12 weeks in Cape Town, South Africa, volunteering in a township clinic and conducting research on antiretroviral HIV treatment adherence. The work culminated in an article published in the Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes and, more importantly, the implementation of a more effective and efficient treatment program in the community. The experience confirmed my goal of pursuing an MD/MPH and a career in global health. - Joey Sharp '15, UGA Amazing Student
Each year, nearly 6 percent of the UGA student population participates in a study abroad program, with an additional 150-200 students from other universities transient enrolling. These statistics testify to UGA's reputation for providing high quality international academic experiences.

Do you have a favorite memory from a UGA study abroad experience? We'd love to hear it! Email your story to Assistant Director of Communications Jamie Lewis (AB '12, AB '12) at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Alumna Spotlight: Cheri Leavy (BSED '97)
After a childhood of frequent visits to Athens, Cheri Harden Leavy (BSED '97) couldn't resist the pull of the Classic City. During college, she transferred to UGA from Ole Miss and has been bleeding red and black ever since. Today, she is the founder of Bulldawg Illustrated, Guide2Athens and The Southern Coterie, three publications that cover the modern South.
UGA Alumni Association Assistant Director of Communications Jamie Lewis (AB '12, AB '12) spoke with Cheri about her experiences at the university that helped shape her career:
You started college at Ole Miss. What are your connections to UGA and what made you return to Georgia?
My father, Mac Harden (BBA '77), graduated from UGA and his mother grew up in Watkinsville. We spent a lot of time on the family farm in Oconee County when I was growing up, so I have always loved the area and cheered for the Bulldogs. Generations of our family bleed red and black. I loved my time at Ole Miss; my father says I built my resume on classes that were interesting, but didn't fit a degree (like "Anthropology of the Blues" and "Faulkner Studies"). I transferred to UGA and got serious. I stayed on the Dean's List until I graduated from the College of Education, where I participated in the pilot year of the Collaborative Inquiry Teacher Education Program. I taught high school for several years, then joined The Brunswick News where I launched a Newspaper in Education program to showcase local student writing.
Along with your husband Vance (AB '94), you've started Bulldawg Illustrated, Guide2Athens and The Southern Coterie. Explain a little bit about what those are, the inspiration behind them and how your time at UGA prepared you for an entrepreneurial career.
Vance and I created Bulldawg Illustrated, a print newspaper and website that covers UGA sports and the Bulldog lifestyle. Now in its 12th year covering the South's beloved tailgating and football, it is still a ton of fun. Six years ago, we created Guide2Athens. The pocket-sized square book and blog captures the people and businesses that make America's best college town so culturally rich. We have loved getting involved in the Athens community and have had a home here for the last five years. When Athens isn't beckoning, you can find us at home in St. Simons with our two golden retrievers.
I founded The Southern Coterie with my friend Whitney Long; it is a resource for the entrepreneurial South. Designed to offer a community of passionate business owners the opportunity to connect, collaborate and create, the "Southern C" network is capturing the South's entrepreneurial renaissance one post at a time. The Southern C Summit brings the online content to life with a unique multi-day conference where attendees network and connect with the best and brightest names in Southern business and branding.
What is your most memorable UGA experience? Favorite UGA sports experience?
Meeting Herschel Walker for the first time at Vince Dooley's home was pretty surreal. The Leavy Family/Brunswick News Publishing endowed a scholarship and we had brunch at the Dooley's before the game. Vance, his brother, his brother's wife and I went on the field that day to be recognized. Since we are all UGA graduates, that whole experience was pretty incredible. Herschel was on our Christmas card that year!
Since graduating, you and Vance have stayed involved with the university. Why do you think it's important for alumni to stay connected to UGA once they've graduated?
Staying involved with the university provides you with an invaluable resource of connections to continue to support your growth personally and professionally. Vance and I enjoy supporting the philanthropic side of UGA. I attended the UGA Studies Abroad Program in Cortona, Italy, and now serve on the Georgia Museum of Art friend's board. We also support our vibrant athletics programs.
I give back to students that are up-and-coming at the university. We have 15 interns from Grady. They bring me a tremendous amount of joy and I learn from them as much as I hope they do from me. I give them a great deal of responsibility and I have high expectations, but if they work hard, they can count on me after graduation.
I traveled recently to the West Coast and to Memphis, where I spent time with former interns. One even visited on her "engagement tour," where she was introducing her future groom to family. We felt honored to be a stop on her travels. They turn into amazing friends as they get older and I couldn't be prouder of their successes. The internships certainly feed the teacher side of me that was fostered while studying at UGA. I may not formally be in education any longer, but I am still using that skill set.
Can you give us a hint of what's next for you?
Oh my goodness, there is no telling.
Vance and Cheri Leavy with Uga IX
From the Desk of Provost Whitten: Food for Thought
This blog was sourced from Written by Whitten, Provost Whitten's blog. Click here to read the original post.
Food and food processing are big business in Georgia, so it should come as no surprise that the University of Georgia is using its expertise to strengthen one of the top growth industries in the state.
Recently, UGA broke ground on the UGA Griffin Food Technology Center, a state-of-the-art facility that will house the university's Food Product Innovation and Commercialization (FoodPIC) Center. FoodPIC is a unit of the university's College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences that assists new and existing companies in product development, packaging, food safety, consumer acceptance and marketing. It is staffed by faculty from the department of food science and technology, as well as research chefs from within the university and from private industry.
Food processing is the state's leading manufacturing sector—with an estimated $3.5 billion in annual wages—and it is a rapidly growing industry. Over the past six years, 7,400 jobs in Georgia were created by new and expanding food processing companies, according to data from Georgia Power's Community and Economic Development division. Large companies that have moved to Georgia or expanded their operations here include household names such as Kellogg's and Starbucks, and FoodPIC has helped farmers and small companies produce niche products such as frozen desserts made from Georgia fruits as well as sauces and ethnic foods.
FoodPIC is the only project of its kind in the Southeast, and it is one of many examples of the role that UGA plays in economic development. The UGA Griffin Food Technology Center is strategically located just 30 miles south of the world's busiest airport, and it will help attract food-related businesses to the nearby Lakes at Green Valley Industrial Park.
The entire campus community is grateful to Governor Nathan Deal, the General Assembly, University System of Georgia Chancellor Hank Huckaby, the Board of Regents, the Griffin-Spalding Development Authority and the U.S. Economic Development Administration for their support and partnership on this important project.
UGA's faculty in the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences have helped make Georgia the nation's top state for blueberry production, and FoodPIC is putting Georgia on course to become a national leader in food processing.

The home theater receiver performs some of the most important functions in any audio/video entertainment system. Lately receivers are doing a lot more than just switching inputs and amplifying audio signals. If you want all the extra bells and whistles, you have to pay for them, but what bells and whistles can you get for a modest price? If this Yamaha RX-V671 is representative of the category, then you can get an awful lot.
Audioholics recently took a look at this Yamaha unit. Check out some of their thoughts here:
The RX-V671 by Yamaha. It offers some of the most important features we tend to look for, like a discrete powered Zone 2, and network features that let you stream music from the likes of Pandora, vTuner, Rhapsody, SiriusXM Internet Radio and Napster. It also lets you stream media from any DLNA-compatible source.
Like the RX-V571, which is $100 cheaper, the RX-V671 has analogue video upconversion to HDMI - at up to 1080p resolution. That means you can feed this receiver just about any composite or component video signal and it can output it via HDMI. This is a real no-hassle way to connect your system - and it means that you only need to run one HDMI cable to your TV.
Now, the RX-V671 is the least expensive receiver in Yamaha's line-up to use their new advanced on-screen GUI. This is a system we covered in our review of the Aventage RX-A3000 receiver, and it's very interactive and easy to use. When you're setting up speakers, for example, it gives a 3D representation of your room, so you know exactly where you're telling it to assign the amps.
This receiver has two component video inputs and 5 composite video inputs. It is, of course, 3D compatible and has 6 HDMI inputs, including one on the front - which we find very convenient for using the new cameras that have HDMI outputs. The HDMI inputs also allow pass-through while the receiver is Standby and you can even change inputs. That means you can pipe your Blu-ray player directly to your TV without having to boot up the entire home theater system. This might be handy for watching TV at night, or if… loud noises scare you - I don't know… I don't ever bypass the receiver! The other thing that the RX-V671 adds is the AV Controller app which turns your iPhone or iPad into a full-featured remote control for both the Main Zone and Zone 2. The app shows the Zones and rooms, and allows control over input source and volume level.
If you just want to connect an iPhone or iPad to the 671 to stream music, you can, just using the front USB port. No dock is needed and the receiver will even charge your device while it's connected.

Provided itemization remains the same on gear. It is not handled differently on gems however, sadly, the same level gem will get you equal amounts dodge or parry.
Don't mistake, this is a net loss to all tank's avoidance, but those with more parry will lose slightly less.
For Flavius, I've never done much with the avoidance scripts, but I'd highly recommend TankPoints. It will give you a convenient calculator that will show your avoidance in each stat, after diminishing, and against a variable attacker level (defaulting to 83, or boss level).
