Naya Rivera wows as the host of the GLAAD Media Awards in San Francisco
When you tell a group of lesbian and bisexual women that both Naya Rivera and Sara Ramirez will be in the same room together, there is bound to be excitement. But when you tell that same group of women that the Glee and Grey's Anatomy stars will be together to support a major gay advocacy organization at a biggest gay awards show around (besides, possibly, the Tonys) in the gayest city in the country, expect passing out and mass hysteria to follow.

Much to the credit of the well-heeled crowd at the 2011 GLAAD Media Awards in San Francisco, no one rushed the stage or, as far as I know, fainted during the event. Naya, who self-described her character as "the majestic mean girl, the luscious lady-loving Santana" hosted the show in front of a full ballroom at the Marriott Marquis in downtown San Francisco.
The evening began with the celebrity guests walking the blue carpet, courtesy one of the evening's big sponsors Roxx Vodka. The running joke on stage was every time someone said Roxx (pronounced "rocks"), the company would donate $100 to GLAAD. So there was endless talk of this or that "rocking" or having "rocked" and all other conjugations, which was followed by the canned sound effect of a cha-ching from a cash register. Hey, it was for a good cause.
Naya was the first major female star to take the blue carpet. Her appearance in the entryway brought an onslaught of flashbulbs from the assembled media. She was gracious enough to stop by our spot along the rope line and answer a few questions.

AfterEllen: When I asked readers on Twitter for questions for you what questions they had for you, an overwhelming number of them just said, "Tell her thank you," "Tell her she helped me come to terms with my sexuality," "Tell her she helped me come out," and even "Tell her she saved my life." Do you feel that responsibility while you're playing Santana?
Naya Rivera: Yeah, I absolutely do. I've gotten an overwhelming number of tweets and fan letters that are from girls in high school, 17, who are struggling with coming out and their sexuality. They say things like, "Thank you for being so brave." "I came out to my friends or I came out to my parents." To me I feel very honored that I am helping people in such a difficult time in their lives. I couldn't ask for anything more.
AE: Your AfterEllen fans live tweet every episode using the hashtag #gaysharks, so you can check that out next time if you want. How big a role did the fans have in pushing the writers to go deeper into the Brittany and Santana relationship?
NR: I would say 100 percent. I feel like the fans are actually fully responsible for the place that Santana's character has been taken and her storyline. I feel like they weren't really sure what they were going to do with it and if it would make an impact. And the response has been just overwhelming. They are the reason why I am where I am right now.

The traditional central-station grid is evolving toward a more distributed architecture, accommodating a variety of resources spread out across the network. An open and thoughtful planning...
2008 CEO Forum: Conservation Compact
Utilities test new models to encourage investments in efficiency and conservation.
state and national energy policy, we're seeing a shift from the traditional least-cost utility model to one that balances energy needs with environmental concerns. As such, renewable technologies and energy efficiency have become a significant part of Progress Energy's overall strategy.
We favor a shared-savings model with customers. Our idea of how this would work is we'd recover our program cost, net revenue lost and a 50/50 sharing of benefits with customers. That's a good model because it's transparent—here's the cost and here's the benefit. And this shared-savings model provides Progress Energy and its customers with appropriate incentives for maximizing the benefits of reduced peak electricity demand.
Fortnightly: Some states are decoupling retail energy rates from utility revenues—including a pilot for gas utilities in North Carolina. Assuming this trend continues, do you see this as a useful regulatory change?
Johnson: I've been following the developments in other states. In our states, we're in the early days of thinking about efficiency and renewables incentives and changes in the regulatory compact. Our view is for some period of time we should do this methodically, and introduce changes as we understand things better.
I'm not sure decoupling is a trend but it's increasing as a concept. In our states we need to follow a more traditional regulatory path until we understand how customers, regulators and utilities respond and perform under that system, and how they respond to the changes we're already making.
Fortnightly: Given increasingly intense resource scarcity and environmental constraints, how does the business proposition change for vertically integrated utilities whose profits are based on capacity and throughput? If I'm a Progress Energy investor, what changes should I expect to see in the way the company earns a return over the next decade?
Johnson: This is an excellent question. The first part of the answer is that our obligation remains the same, to make sure we have adequate supply tomorrow, as well as 10 or 20 years from now.
We've always pursued the least-cost model and built least-cost infrastructure, and you earn a return on your infrastructure. As we go to a least-environmental impact model, that's already changing the regulatory thinking, when incenting companies to invest in efficiency and renewables. That's happening and there will be changes. We're just at the front end of it now.
It will require innovative thinking and a partnership among utilities, lawmakers, regulators and customers. But at end of the day, we have the same objectives: quality standards, reliable service, and the most affordable price possible.
How we achieve that mission is the challenge as well as the opportunity.
Carbon-Light In Idaho
With reservoir levels falling and power demands growing, utilities in the West are facing difficult choices. Idaho Power is taking an integrated approach that relies heavily on shoring up its existing resources, procuring as much renewable and climate-friendly conventional power as possible, and slowing demand growth in an expanding economy.
IDACORP President and CEO J. LaMont Keen sees revenue decoupling as critical to that approach.

Interestingly I think the whole mastery sub-focus idea holds more water in DS than it did in previous tiers, for a couple reasons:
1) the fairly excessive amounts of raid damage across the board means that you'll get extra rage from THAT and so maxing your rage gen stats (hit/haste) seems a bit less necessary
2) due to the vast quantity of stats you actually have on DS gear, it's probably easier to hit a place where mastery really starts to be valuable anyway
Also, sort of a 3rd semi-point is, mastery is more valuable for arms, so it makes the pain of reforging between the two less.
Still, probably worth testing out and seeing how it goes. It's late enough in the life of the instance that I'm sure there are plenty of farm fights to play around with.
Oh, wrt weapons, the only thing that's better than Gurthalak is a better version of Gurthalak...use both until you get a better version of it. The proc is absurdly good.

Grid Futures
Evolutionary directions for electric system architecture.
does become crucial for T&D operation is in supporting operators' situational awareness, equipping them to maintain system reliability. Wide-area situational awareness would likely be the most acutely felt need for intelligence in the beefy grid.
As in each scenario, the form of the beefy T&D system can be expected to follow function. Transmission towers and lines will be a major visible presence, with new links traversing the countryside to connect distant resources with metropolitan areas. Numerous wind farms likely would crop up in the central United States and solar arrays in the Southwest, sited and scaled so as to make optimal use of resources. Because of the need to complement the short-term intermittency as well as the seasonal availability of different renewable generation resources, a high-voltage interstate highway would span the continent, with a capacity that represents a significant percentage of total demand in the eastern and western U.S., respectively. Probably the key aspect of the beefy system's overall look, therefore, is that T&D facilities increasingly cover sparsely populated land areas not previously associated with much electricity infrastructure.
In the "nimble" scenario, the T&D system's function can be more broadly described as connecting supply and demand of electricity, probably accommodating a broader spectrum of generation. Specifically, if technology implemented at the distribution level affords more refined voltage control and sophisticated protection coordination algorithms at reasonable cost, higher penetration levels of small- and medium-scale distributed generation become a viable option to complement central-station plants. The need for adding transmission hardware would be less pronounced, partly due to more distributed generation, and partly due to technical options such as routing intelligence ( i.e., power flow control) and increased utilization of existing lines. Because building out T&D capacity in the traditional way and improving asset utilization through technology are both feasible, the nimble scenario could be called "have-your-cake-and-eat-it-too," with the motto "Deliver a kWh from anywhere to anyone, anytime." The extent to which new technologies are integrated would depend on the details of local constraints and cost-benefit optimization.
Indeed, optimization would become the name of the game, as more than one viable solution would exist for relieving any given set of operational pressures. Rather than playing defense against encroaching constraints, T&D operators and planners could be proactive in comparing and choosing among solutions that afford desired gains. Overall, therefore, the "nimble" scenario would offer flexibility, adaptability and resilience. Operationally, the biggest challenge of the nimble scenario could become processing a large volume of information from different levels and sources into effective operating actions, spanning many orders of magnitude on both time and distance scales. 6 Some important questions would include how information is aggregated and which processes can and should be operated in closed-loop automation mode. The benefit of an extended menu of hardware and intelligence would also entail challenges at the planning and design level, since the analytic tools (not to mention criteria) for optimizing system function with so many diverse variables have yet to be developed.
It seems safe to say, nevertheless, that the T&D system's relative trend from Quadrant I toward

Literally a miracleAs a kid, I never could have imagined that when I was a grown up, I could order ICE CREAM from the internet and have it delivered to my front door. And not even just ice cream -- literally ANY type of food I could imagine. Foodler is amazing. It is wondrous. It is a godsend. If foodler was a politician, I'd vote for it. If it was a dog, I'd give it ALL of the belly rubs. tl;dr : Foodler is AMAZING.

text: U basically rode tobi's **** on this thread. There equals, the only other uchiha that has gone toe to toe in genjustu is Sasuke, so we can't say that tobi or itachi is better or that tobi will definitely break tsukiyomi. The only time tobi has used genjustu is when he had control over the mizukage and when he squeezed info out of konan. So its safe to say that he's good in genjustu but its not enough to solidify that he's better than itachi or vise versa. Kamui has been counter many times, in every fight tobi was in a strategy and counter method was made, even Danzo's goons orchestrated a stragey that injured tobi. Guy was able to go toe to toe with tobi with just taijustu, tobi being able to keep up with guy is no major feat. Kakashi is able to keep up with guy no problem and itachi is on par with kakashi in taijustu, also itachi was able to hold his own against km naruto and bee at the same time. U can't say that its impossible for itachi to attack cause he'll immediately get sucked in. When it comes to a battle between these two it wont be a factor of who can use stronger or better justu, it will be who can come up with a better strategy and who can be the most proficient.

Title: Cupcake Girl's 2nd Bday
Date: Jul 17, 2013
I was so happy to find these for our daughter's 2nd Birthday because we call her "Cupcake Girl" and we had a cupcake theme for her 1st birthday. These party supplies are so cute and exactly as pictured, I can't wait for her party. They arrived a few days earlier than expected too. I ordered additional matching items to go with the basic party kit for additional guests and to carry on the theme. I will definitely be ordering her next birthday party supplies from here.

This is such a cute idea for your little one's birthday. The colors are bright and easy to coordinate with other supplies.
We bought a cupcake iron-on patch to make a matching shirt. I also found cupcake shaped crayons to do as a gift for the kids who attended. My mom also found a cupcake shaped cake pan. I would highly recommend this to others.

► Another Great Product By Thorne Research - It's Also GMO Free !
10 people found the following review helpful
Posted by 3827GreenWood on Nov 28, 2013
Purchased at iHerb
Thorne Research is the only hypoallergenic Coleus Forskohlii supplement manufacturer with the highest degree of purity one can truly trust. It uses ForsLean as the ingredient which is a high quality Coleus Forskohlii extract from Sabinsa Corporation. Clinical studies done in Japan, US and India have shown that ForsLean is a potential natural aid for weight management. This patented phytonutrient product is non-GMO and made without flowing agents that can inhibit bioavailability. Coleus Forskohlii is traditionally used for various cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and central nervous system ailments. IMHO, this product will help maintain an individual's body composition at a healthy level. With one capsule 30min before meal twise a day, I noticed great improvements in weight management, blood pressure and testosterone level. Additionally, I have felt more energy and less hunger since being on this product with no adverse effects noted. Wish it came with more pills in a bottle. Only 60. Taking everything into account, I highly recommend this high quality product. I am a strong advocate on scientific medical research and evidence-based information, and constantly want to differentiate between marketing hyperbole and real world effects. I hope you'll find my review Helpful to you. Best wishes and good health to everyone!

Jason Hiner
Yes she can
No way
Lawrence Dignan
Best Argument: No way
The moderator has delivered a final verdict.
Opening Statements
Restoring business-as-usual is job one
Jason Hiner: Leo Apotheker had the wrong vision for HP and unnecessarily put the company in disarray. The HP board realized it had made a massive mistake and wisely decided to move quickly to restore order inside the company and give the public hope that HP can pull itself together.
Meg Whitman may not be the ideal CEO -- she doesn't have the enterprise IT chops -- but she was one the best options HP had available and she's smart enough to hire or retain the right lieutenants. She'll immediately bring stability and her arrival will give the company a (mostly) positive spin that it could use right now in the wake of the Mark Hurd scandal, the Apotheker disaster, and the overall missteps by the board.
It's a solid short-term move. Whether Whitman can create a vision to lead HP into the next decade remains to be seen. But, for now, restoring business-as-usual to the world's largest computer maker will be enough.
None of HP's problems are quick fixes
Larry Dignan: HP Executive Chairman Ray Lane said that Meg Whitman knows leadership, communications and IT. "Meg was both a large purchaser of information technology for the enterprise, and ran a company that depends on technology to deliver its service," said Lane.
If only it were that easy. Amazon's Jeff Bezos buys a ton of technology too, but I'm not so sure he could run a hardware and services company. Whitman's experience screams consumer, branding and strong leadership. Only that latter part applies to HP.
Whitman can stabilize HP, but will be hard-pressed to make it hum. She'll need the operational knowhow of key execs such as Dave Donatelli, who runs HP's enterprise server, storage and networking business. The catch is Donatelli has been passed over as CEO material twice. Whitman also has to figure out the services business.
She'll make some progress, but won't turn HP around completely. Perhaps she sets the stage to hand off to another CEO.

Cultural Orientations
At the suggestion of its founder, Reinhard Mohn, the Bertelsmann Stiftung has been examining topics relating to cultural orientations for a number of years. In doing so, it looks at which values are critical for maintaining social cohesion. It is an issue that gains in significance as globalization progresses, since the fundamental changes and seemingly borderless world that most people encounter today are resulting in a search for greater meaning and clearer identities. The program therefore examines both cultural attitudes and values, and, in particular, the critical role religious beliefs play in ensuring society remains capable of meeting current and coming challenges. Our goal is to contribute proactively to international and intercultural understanding through our Role of Religion in Modern Society projects and our International Cultural Dialogue series.Program overview
Are violent cultural conflicts becoming more prevalent?
The number of cultural conflicts has increased dramatically over the past 25 years. At the same time, such conflicts are extremely prone to becoming violent. Conversely, conflict is not the usual result when groups with opposing values come in contact with each other or when cultural fragmentation occurs, i.e., when groups with different languages, religions or historical backgrounds coexist within a given society. Cultural conflicts, moreover, are primarily a domestic as opposed to an international phenomenon. Those are the key findings from a comprehensive study recently carried out by the Bertelsmann Stiftung designed to identify the causes of global conflict.
Italy is still ''God's home''
Compared to many other western industrialized nations, Italy is still a religious country in which the Catholic faith continues to play a major role within society. Overall, 89 percent of Italians are religious, and 44 percent are highly religious. At the same time, traditional Catholic doctrine influences everyday life in Italy only to a limited extent. Those are the some of the key findings from the 2008 Religion Monitor, an international study carried out by the Bertelsmann Stiftung to compare religious beliefs and practices around the globe.more
Muslims in Germany are very religious, and faith plays a central role in their day-to-day lives
Berlin-Gütersloh, September 26, 2008 – Across all age groups, the Muslims who live in Germany are highly religious, which clearly differentiates them from the overall German population. But their religious faith is not characterized by rigid dogmatism or fundamentalism. On the contrary, Muslims in Germany tend to be very accepting of religious pluralism and take a relatively pragmatic approach to religion in their day-to-day lives. These are among the conclusions reached by the Bertelsmann Stiftung's special study "Religion Monitor 2008: Muslim religiosity in Germany," which was unveiled today in Berlin. The study is based on a representative survey of more than 2,000 Muslims over the age of 18.more

Have a new idea?
|whibs says:
When it comes to creating new tasks in Smart Lists on the main RTM site, the inheritance feature for tags and locations is a real labour-saver!
Posted at 4:18pm on July 16, 2007
|whibs says:
I note that inheritance works as expected when looking at tasks by list, tag or location but not at all for Smart Lists.

|wohler says:
If I have a smart list, say tag:call, and create a new task, it inherits the "call" tag. If the smart list is modified to say,'tag:call dueWithin:"two weeks of today"', new tasks still inherit the "call" tag. So far, so good.

|jhollington says:
I agree with this one completely. The logic for Smart List inheritance needs to be improved dramatically such that each of the "default" criteria is analyzed separately.

text: But Blizz always submit when pressured so we will likely be hammered. Either that, or this is a precursor to future changes to prot warriors incoming in cata (ie buffed damage but less control). They stated a while back that they intend to alter the rage mechanic so prot get more rage from dmg. This promise of a nerf looks like its intended to keep the moaners happy, as opposed to balancing classes. Enough to buy them some time until they come up with a real solution.

When Aliona goes on a shoot anything might happen.
We find a quiet spot in one of the parks in Kiev, set up the tripods and camera gear – and before the first shot is fired, Aliona is scaling a huge metal mast and revealing her lithe young body and sexy Goth looks to the entire world. Only one thing for it: break out the movie camera and capture this girl on film, totally natural, totally winning, a Hegre classic.
Once you see Aliona Climbing you may become a Goth!

Things in professional wrestling have a way of leaking out of backstage, but the reason for Layla El being gone from WWE has been a tightly kept secret. She has not been involved in a televised match since September, and there does not appear to be a rush to have her return.
Over the last several weeks, Layla El has been given time away from the road, but the long time WWE diva recently made a return to the company during a special New Year's Eve photo shoot. No return date has been revealed for her yet, though.
Layla El, who has been taking time away from WWE for an undisclosed reason, recently attended the Kanye West concert with a friend.
Layla El has not been seen on WWE television for a couple of months now and many are wondering what her status with the company is. Many are under the impression that she is not injured and simply taking time off to deal with personal issues.
Layla El once danced with Kanye West during a performance at the MTV Music Awards.
