Hi: 12° Lo:7°
By Ian Dipple Thursday 08 November 2012 Updated: 08/11 16:09
ANY FURTHER delays in reaching a decision on the future make-up of hospitals services in the county would threaten the existence of the Trust which runs Worcestershire Royal Hospital.
Penny Venables, chief executive of Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust, warned there was a real risk from 2014 they would not be able to make the financial savings needed or staff services safely without implementing changes proposed as part of the Joint Services Review, whatever the outcome.
The process was delayed in September and again in October as health bosses were unable to agree on a viable set of options to put to the public.
The Trust needs to save £50million over the next three years and says it is capable of finding £30million of that from internal efficiency savings.
But Mrs Venables said 2014 was a key year as they would be unable to make anymore savings without changing services, while another delay could also derail their bid to become a Foundation Trust, which if not approved by 2014 would see the Trust broken up.
"We have to keep an eye on the fact currently we are clinically safe, but by 2014 there is a further reduction in junior doctors in certain specialities across the country and Herefordshire and Worcestershire will be affected. The implementation of these changes are not going to happen overnight, they are going to take time so we are mindful of this, " she told the county council's Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee on Tuesday (November 6).
"The most important thing is we get this right. This does take us right up to the wire in regard to our Foundation Trust status and any other delay would some difficulties with that."
Clinicians are currently halfway through the extra work they need to do as a result of the decision last month to ditch the possibility of closing or severely downgrading the Alexandra Hospital in Redditch and instead try and provide as many services as possible on all three hospital sites.
A meeting is set for December 18 when it is hoped detailed options will be worked up and released in the second half of January for a second round of public engagement, before public consultation in March. But it depends on reaching an agreement with politicians as it would clash with campaigning for next May's county council elections. A final decision is expected in June.
But Simon Hairsnape, chief officer for NHS Worcestershire, warned a further delay was possible.
"We don't know what options will pan out or if we will be in a position to make a decision but we hope we are," he said.
"We are still confident we can get a solution that is clinically safe, financially sustainable and right for patients locally."
"It's important we get this right and don't end up with an unsustainable fudge of any kind - that would be the worst thing we could do."

Walk to Emmaus
Revised January 17, 2004
I. Community Advising Board Member (CABM)
A member of the Board is assigned to each Sponsoring Community to provide support, assistance, and guidance in accomplishing the responsibilities of the Community for each Walk. This person is identified as the Community Advising Board Member (CABM). The CABM will contact the Lay Leader of the Community well in advance of the Walk to coordinate this support. The CABM will also be present at the Candlelight Service to conduct the announcements and information portion of the Candlelight Service.
II. Community – Walk Coordination
The Sponsoring Community Lay Director should contact the Walk Lay Director before plans and personnel selections for the various services begin. In many cases the Walk Lay Director may desire that certain persons (spouses, Reunion Group members, etc.) who may not be members of the Sponsoring Community participate as leaders, liturgists, clergy, or musicians at some or all of the services. The Sponsoring Community should make every effort to respond to those desires by including the people in the positions the Walk Lay Director requests.
The Sponsor's Worship Service is a special part of the Emmaus Model. Here, we start the Walk bathed in prayer by the Sponsors. The spirit of the evening is one of gratefulness for the Sponsor's work to "go make disciples," and of praise to God for what the Holy Spirit will do in the hearts of the Pilgrims.
The Walk Team is responsible for setting up the chapel for the service. They will have the large cross in place and the pilgrim crosses and lanyards laid out, and they will provide a list of the Pilgrim's names. They will also have the communion elements in place. The Sponsoring Community is not responsible for any of the Sponsor's Worship Service setup or cleanup.
The Sponsoring Community is responsible for providing the Lay Leader for the evening and the Spiritual Leader for Communion. The Spiritual Leader must meet the qualifications for a Spiritual Leader as established by the Upper Room for the Walk to Emmaus (see attached Walk to Emmaus Clergy Qualifications).
The Lay Leader is the "guiding host" for the Sponsor's Worship Service. He/she should remember that there will probably be first-time Sponsors in the group and should explain everything that will be done. The Lay Leader will do the following:
[Please note that it is very important to take an offering at this special service. Be prepared (make sure there are offering plates), and have whoever you ask to collect the offering give the plates and money to the Chapel Servants.] [Music is appropriate during the offering and during communion in the Communion Service using short, spiritual songs such as "Sanctuary" and "Surely the Presence."]
The Candlelight Service is a focal point for the Emmaus Community. It is a time for everyone to focus all their excitement on their love for Jesus! The Sponsoring Community is the loving host for the community in this great love expression.
The Walk Team is responsible for the physical setup of the Candlelight Service including the altar and the communion elements. The Team will also provide a list of the Pilgrims' names to be used in the Worship Service.
The Sponsoring Community is responsible for providing the music leader and music personnel for the Candlelight Service. We encourage other musicians to show up, and they are to be welcomed to the music group for the night. The music leader should make every effort to avoid using special music that will prevent all musicians from participating in the selected music. The music leader should also insure that visual materials for leading the music are provided. This can be song books or overhead projection. Song books will be provided by the Walk Team unless the music leader informs them the books are not necessary. The music leader should remember that everyone leaves the Candlelight Service area after the Pilgrims arrive and the Pilgrims stay there for the meditation period. Any equipment used must be removed between the conclusion of the Community portion of the Service and the entry of the Pilgrims or it cannot be removed until after all Pilgrims leave the area to go to the Agape Feast.
The Music Leader is responsible for the community music that will start at 7:30 p.m. and will continue until approximately 8:00 p.m. or when the Sponsoring Community's Lay Leader takes over. The Music Leader is also responsible for the following:
The Sponsoring Community is responsible for leading the evening's Worship Service which includes providing the following. [If possible, these assistants should come from the sponsoring Community except for persons included in response to Walk Lay Director requests.]
Communion Assistants (usually a total of 8 persons, the Lay and Spiritual Leaders and six others)
The Lay Leader is typically the coordinator for the evening. The Spiritual Leader must meet the qualifications for a Spiritual Leader as established by the Upper Room for the Walk to Emmaus (see attached Walk to Emmaus Clergy Qualifications).
The Schedule and detailed responsibilities for the evening are contained in the attached SPONSORING COMMUNITY ORDER OF SERVICE FOR CANDLELIGHT.
The Walk ends when the Walk Spiritual Director presents the Team Cross to the Walk Lay Director. Then, as the first act of the Pilgrim's Fourth Days, they participate with their Community in Worship. The actual Worship Service is a Sponsoring Community conducted activity, and the Walk Lay and Spiritual Director are merely members, as are all in the room, of the Community. This means that the answering of the two questions and the gift of the cross are part of the Team's Closing, and are not part of the Worship Service.
The Walk Team will handle the logistical setup of the Closing, including providing the communion elements.
The Sponsoring Community is responsible for providing a Lay Leader and a Spiritual Leader for the Worship Service that follows presentation of the Team Cross which concludes the Walk.
The Sponsoring Community is responsible for providing the music leader and music personnel for the Worship Service portion of the Closing. While the Team musicians are obviously available, it is desired that Community musicians be used to make the connection to the Community rather than to the Team. The music needs are for a song as the Pilgrims enter the service area from Commissioning, the Hymn of Praise and the Act of Praise in the Worship, and for music during communion.
Procedurally, the Walk Team's Spiritual Director will conduct the answering of the two questions, and will present the Walk Lay Director with the Team Cross. Then they will leave the front of the room and sit down. At that time, the Sponsoring Community provided Lay Leader for the Worship Service will come to the altar area and say:
My sisters (brothers), your three day journey has ended, and now your Fourth Day begins. It is appropriate that as you begin your Fourth Day, you begin not as Walk #_______ members, but as Community members. You have people here who love you and who want to welcome you to the Community. We are going to take just a few moments to let you go to those who are here for you, to greet one another, and to join together into your Community. Please, greet each other in your Fourth Day as we prepare to worship."
At that time, the Pilgrims, Team, and Community will get up and begin to mingle with one another. There will be a lot of joy (noise). After a few minutes, the Lay Leader should ask everyone to please be seated. Once everyone is seated and quiet, the Lay Leader shall say:
The Lay and Spiritual Leaders will conduct the Closing Worship service in accordance with the Purple Worship Book (starting at page 26). The complete liturgy shall be used except that there is NO Prayer Time and there is NO Offering. The Spiritual Leader is responsible for providing a devotional message not to exceed 5 minutes in length that should focus on Walking in the light of Christ back in the real world.
All Walks will have an on-site Prayer Chapel. The Prayer Chapel will be set up by the team, and is open for anyone to use during the weekend. Many team members, especially members of the Servant Team, will make use of the Prayer Chapel during the Walk.
While there will be Team Members who serve as a Prayer Team to conduct around-the-clock prayers, all Community Members are encouraged to come throughout the weekend and use the on-site Prayer Chapel. Spouses and friends of the speakers are urged to come and be in prayer while the speaker is giving his/her talk. Community Members can come early and/or stay late before and/or after the Sponsor's Worship Service, Candlelight, and Closing. The Prayer Chapel is available for the Community to rally in prayer. As Community Leaders, you are urged to encourage others to come and hold up each Walk on wings of prayer.

9:30 Pilgrims arrive.
Clergy Qualifications
The team Spiritual Director for an Emmaus Weekend must be a clergy person in the eyes of the church (active or retired). He or she must be engaged in professional ministry, have the theological and pastoral education required for that role, and be authorized to administer Holy Communion in a setting (e.g., Emmaus) beyond the local church to which he or she is assigned.
In the United Methodist Church, this includes seminary trained, ordained elders who are in good standing with their annual conference. An ordained deacon or "local pastor" who has completed his or her course of study may only qualify as the team Spiritual Director if and when the presiding Bishop extends his or her appointment to include Emmaus. This is because the deacon's and "local pastor's" authority to preside over the administration of the sacrament of Holy Communion is limited to the local church to which they are appointed.
If, however, such permission is not granted, that person should not serve in the head Spiritual Director role. To have an assistant consecrate the elements in the place of the Spiritual Director of the weekend could lead to confusion on the part of the Pilgrims, or a sense that the Spiritual Director was not properly qualified to have that role for the weekend. It might also, unintentionally and unconsciously, lead the community to a less rigorous standard for clergy qualification than should be consistently applied. The Board is responsible to insure the quality of the weekends, and is therefore rightly concerned about how this situation communicates not only to the Pilgrims and community, but also sets the tone for future walks
Qualified Spiritual Directors from other recognized denominations must also be fully ordained clergy persons in good standing with their denominations. They must be engaged in the ministry of the Church, have completed theological and pastoral training required of clergy in their denomination, and he authorized to administer Holy Communion in the Emmaus setting. They must also be able to maintain mainline theological balance while being sensitive to the variety of perspectives in this interdenominational setting.
The assumption underlying the manual is that the Community Spiritual Director should meet the minimum qualifications of Walk Spiritual Directors, and therefore should be ordained and recognized by the larger community served by the Emmaus community as a competent spiritual leader.
There is no general requirement that he or she be a United Methodist. On occasion, however, it may be beneficial to consider utilizing a United Methodist in the position because of the association of the Upper Room Emmaus program with the United Methodist Church through the General Board of Discipleship. From time to time, issues may arise in the community about which the International Office should be consulted. These issues may involve theological issues and language which a clergy in the United Methodist tradition may have a greater ability to interpret to the Emmaus community due simply to the similarity of the Emmaus movement with that tradition.

The Loudoun County Sheriff's office says the 27-year-old volunteer with Co. 5 in Hamilton was seen driving the company's fire engine eastbound on Harmony Church Road near Canby Road at a high rate of speed.
A county patrol deputy heading toward the truck had to veer into a ditch to avoid a collision with the truck before turning around and stopping the vehicle at Woodburn Road.
The volunteer was given a series of field sobriety tests, arrested, and charged with a DUI and unauthorized use of a vehicle. He was later released on his own recognizance.
There were four other people in the fire truck, all identified as volunteers in the county fire-rescue system. All four had been drinking. None were arrested, and were released to a sober driver.

Kate Gosselin Loses Her Cool
Kate Gosselin lost her cool with her kids yesterday when picking them up. It seems she could not pick the kids up in their usual van, so she had to split the kids into two cars and it frustrated her to no end.
I could just imagine all the kids wanted to go in the same car with her but they just couldn't. Imagine it. It's like playing favorites and you don't want to. Another reason why having 8 kids is a bad idea. Just because you can have 8 doesn't mean you should.-Dr.FB

Holy Hannah! Is that Kate Gosselin? What looks different about her? She looks....well....a lot better.
I guess not being with Jon agrees with her. I still wish she would change her hairstyle but I guess that is something her n hairdresser need to discuss.
I still can't get over that the villain Kate earlier this year, is now the one looking good in the sense of all this. Still, for this to play out in public, makes me wonder why so many Americans want to be a reality star, bringing in 8 kids to suffer. This obsession is not healthy and I can give you two words why; balloon boy.-Dr.FB

BRE Nissan 370Z & Datsun 240Z
Forty years may separate these two Zs, but they both celebrate the BRE Datsun 240Z's historic SCCA National Championships in 1970 and 1971.
By July 14, 2010 / Photos by John Lamm
Most people familiar with Brock Racing Enterprises immediately think of John Morton and the Datsun 510. With good reason. The boxy red, white and blue No. 46 BRE car won the SCCA 2.5-liter Trans-Am championship in 1971 and 1972. And the affordable 510 adapted so well to racing that scads of them, many painted like original BRE cars, popped up at racetracks around the country. Even today you'll see the occasional 510 road racing, often in BRE-inspired paint.
Before the 510, however, Peter Brock and crewwho were already campaigning Datsun S2000 Roadsters in SCCA club racinghit the track with the sleek 240Z...and with great success. Aided by Datsun's West Coast President Yutaka Katayama, BRE obtained an early Z (chassis No. 492) in January 1970 and turned it into an SCCA C Production race car at their shop in El Segundo, California. This No. 46 Z, in fact, graced the cover of our November 1970 issue. James T. Crow reported on the build of the car and concluded that the new racing Z was well on its way to doing well. "Watch for it," he wrote. "It will be worth seeing."
Indeed it was. This was the heyday of production-based amateur road racing in America, and at the SCCA's 1970 American Road Race of Champions held at Road Atlanta (the precursor to the Runoffs), Morton's C Production BRE Z won easily, defeating the likes of Bob Tullius and Lee Mueller in Triumph TR-6s, Alan Johnson in a Ginther-prepared Porsche 914-6 and Bob Sharp, who was building 240Zs out of his shop in Connecticut.
Quite a debut for the BRE car and the sleek in general, which swept the top three positions that fall day at Road Atlanta. And the following year, it seemed that the harder the Zs pushed, the more the Triumphs and broke. At the 1971 ARRC, two BRE 240Zs (Morton and Dan Parkinson) were on the front row, alongside Sharp. Allan Girdler, reporting in our March 1972 issue, described Morton's winning drive: "[He] put on an exhibition, leading all the way in his routine madman style and power always fully on, into each corner at seemingly impossible speed, out with wildly spinning tires, using all the road in the process."
All told, Datsun Zs went on to win 10 straight SCCA C Production titles, but that 1971 national championship marked the end of the BRE Z era. Brockwith Z sales booming and 510s languishing on dealer lotshad decided to go professional racing with the latter in the SCCA's 2.5-liter Trans-Am championship.
And sadly, the original championship-winning No. 46 BRE Z was destroyed in 1973. Brock had handed the car back to Datsun after the 1971 season, who in turn gave it to Parkinson, the former BRE driver who subsequently totaled the car in a rollover crash at Phoenix.
Although Parkinson, who Morton says is very fast, has never publicly admitted writing off the historically significant No. 46 car, one man who knows it's true is Ron Carter, an avid Datsun vintage racer who's built the beautiful BRE 240Z featured here, which is considered by many to be the most faithful re-creation there is of the original No. 46 BRE 240Z.
"I loved the research; it was so much fun," explains Carter, who said he was the only guy crazy enough to undertake such an historically accurate re-creation of Morton's car. He methodically started collecting parts in 2002, beginning with a clean 1972 Z chassis that he had media-blasted down to the bare metal and stitch-welded.
An early fuel door and rear hatch gave the Z the proper 1970 look. BRE spoilers went on front and rear, as did aerodynamic headlight covers. The rollbar was copied from that of a BRE 240Z pace car used at Ontario Motor Speedway. As for the strut suspension, Carter wanted to keep it as original as possible but still be competitive in vintage racing. In went Hypercoil springs, Tokico Illumina 5-way-adjustable shock absorbers, camber plates and adjustable rear toe. And with the large anti-roll bars and sticky Hoosier DOT race tires, size 205/50ZR-15, Carter thought it prudent to reinforce the Z's suspension pickup points.
Under the hood is an original BRE-built L24 2.4-liter, a sohc inline-6 purchased from a vintage racer who was upgrading his Z to a larger engine. This Z was quite a find, as it supplied Carter not just with the powerplant but also the original triple Solex/Mikuni carburetors, the Nissan Competition intake manifold and original American Le Mans magnesium wheels. The gearbox is also from Nissan Comp, an early 5-speed overdrive unit (with "medium-close" ratios) that sends power to an R190 limited-slip differential with 4.44:1 gearing.
Differences from the original No. 46 are numerous but not that major, done mostly for added performance or safety but without changing the simple, honest character of the car. The ATL fuel cell, by vintage rules, is isolated by a bulkhead, and the original rollbar has been built into a full cage with door bars. What's more, the rear brakes are discs, whereas the original BRE Z raced with finned aluminum drums. All told, Carter's BRE Z weighs about 2100 lb., and the engine, redlined at 7000 rpm, puts out around 240 to 250 bhp. The headers, of note, are an exact copy of the original BRE exhaust on the blue No. 3 BRE 240Z, the sole remaining true BRE Z in existence.
Given that it's the 40th anniversary of both the production Z and the BRE Z's first championship, Nissan helped us take Carter's vintage BRE replica out to Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch for some lapping fun. Making things even sweeter, we'd get to drive it back to back with Nissan's one-off 370Z BRE Tribute car, a modern Z done up in a paint scheme that pays homage to those folks who put the Z on the sports-car racing map.

The Sysadmin's Daily Grind: Leafnode
Leafnode is a Usenet server for small sites where just a few users need access to a large number of groups. The Leafnode server is designed to recover from errors autonomously and needs very little attention.
If you are faced with the task of setting up a news server, you might discover INN in your package management tool. The INN daemon is powerful and flexible, and it scales well. On the downside, INN can be hungry on resources, depending on the configuration and peerings, and maintenance is not exactly trivial. In fact, INN is total overkill for smaller workgroups, and this is where Leafnode steps in. Although Leafnode is formally an NNTP server, it might be more fitting to refer to Leafnode as a news proxy. To save resources, the Leafnode server does not attempt to store every article in every newsgroup. If a user subscribes to a newsgroup, Leafnode will tell the user that the postings for the group are not available and offer to fetch the postings from a real news server.

Feel the adrenalin pumping, pressing, and pulsing through your veins. The world is twisting, turning, and tumbling before your eyes as you look through the small window of a cockpit. With a jolt, the plane stops with its nose facing the clouds and the aircraft slowly begins to fall backwards. To the average person this is a thrill-seeking move, an act of outright insanity. To an aerobatics pilot like David Windmiller this is just another everyday experience.
Aerobatics, or stunt flying, is something that Windmiller has done since he was 16 years old. He was a part of the United States Aerobatic Team, a team of the top five fliers in the U.S., and competed against the best fliers in the world.
"I like aerobatics more than anything else; it felt as though I was born with it, like it was natural to me. In comparison, regular flying is kind of boring," said Windmiller. He flies a Zivko Edge 540 built in the United States with a custom-modified engine for leisure and competitions and flies out of Farmingdale's Republic Airport.
"It's probably the strongest plane ever built for aerobatics," he said.
Windmiller was inspired while competing with the U.S. team in France.
"I want to bring in the precision like I used to, where everything is perfect," said Windmiller. "I want to show what it was like in the days of competition, because back then, if you were alive at the end of a performance you felt as though you did a good job.
He tries to bring this accuracy and style at every air show in which he performs, including the annual Jones Beach Air Show.
Having flown for over 30 years, Windmiller understands and accepts the dangers that come with being a professional aerobatics pilot.
"I've been flying for so long, and we've had many parts fail or blow up," he said. "I've seen problems and things that go wrong so often that I can now weed out the danger. Unfortunately, every year there are one or two people that I flew with growing up that didn't make it. Ironically, my father, who was completely against me flying when I was young, died on an airline, TWA, flight 800. Just because aerobatics seems dangerous doesn't mean the business end of flying is any less."
Windmiller finds no greater joy than being in the air. His passion for knowledge, precision, and speed are just a few of the things that draw crowds at every show.
"Aerobatics is the unlimited and the extreme," he said. "It is how anything you think in your mind you can make the plane do."
From the ground, the crowds stare wide-eyed and slack-jawed at the performer; they only can assume what happens inside the cockpit. When the plane spirals the people below cannot feel the extreme G-force that the pilot feels.
"The term stalling is good; it's a point where the wind stops producing lift underneath the wings. In aerobatics you are constantly in stall altitudes, it's just a part of flying, like tumbling which is a full stall flight," Windmiller said.
Married with five children, Windmiller has a lot to lose. Fear and anxiety are not the first things felt when the Windmiller family watches him soar above the rest.
"They really look up to it," Windmiller said. "My wife is uptight sometimes, but flying comes with the package, and I fly so much that it dilutes whatever fears they might have. The fear of flying is more of a lack of knowledge and understanding. If you understand the technical end of it, you just know and accept that these things happen. I'm still here, so I must know something, but I won't say I know everything."
David Windmiller will perform in the upcoming New York air show at Jones Beach on Memorial Day, May 28-29.

Will Keane has reflected on his four-goal show for Manchester United Reserves in the title-clinching victory at Newcastle.
The top scorer for Warren Joyce's team took his tally to 16 for the domestic season to fuel a remarkable comeback from three goals down against the Magpies.
"It's always nice to get on the scoresheet but the main objective was getting the win which meant we won the league," he told MUTV.
"That was the main aim going into the game and we managed to do that so it was good. The defence played quite a high line at Newcastle so I was always looking to get through and, in the end, I should've scored six but I'll take four as I'm happy with that.
"We usually play 4-3-3 so, most of the time, I've been on my own up front and it's been quite tough so when Ritchie [De Laet] came up, it helped. He's a big, physical presence and his pace helped me get a bit more time and he assisted me as well so it was good."
Keane has naturally been pleased with his overall campaign and is looking forward to Thursday's encounter with Liverpool and the Reserves Play-Off final with Aston Villa.
"It's been pleasing," he said. "I've had a good run in the team and scored quite a lot of goals, which I've been pleased with.
"Overall, the team have done well and the team spirit has been good, we've all got on well. In Dallas [for the Dallas Cup], we all got on well together and there were quite a lot of games over a short space of time. It was good for our fitness and it helps us to come back and push on for the last few games and get some silverware at the end of the season.

Visual meteorological conditions prevailed for the public use helicopter search and rescue mission to locate and recover a deceased victim from the bottom of a canyon (650 feet deep). Winds from the west at 5 to 10 mph and throughout the day several trips were conducted into the canyon. Upon receiving notification of the location and preparedness to remove the victim, the pilot flew the helicopter to the canyon and hovered the helicopter with a portion of the left skid on a boulder. The rescue team loaded the litter into the cabin on the left side of the helicopter. As the litter was being secured and one of the rescue team members was climbing on board, 'a gust of wind caused the helicopter to yaw to the right.' As the pilot 'attempted to regain directional control, the skid started to slip on the rock, the tail pitched downward, and the vertical fin and tail rotor struck a rock.' The pilot secured the engines and set the helicopter down, straddling a boulder.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:

Audi e-diesel and e-ethanol
The mobility of the future that Audi is planning will be sustainable: efficient and climate-friendly. Together with a firm from the USA, the Company is developing the synthetic liquid fuels of tomorrow, Audi e-diesel and Audi e-ethanol.
Only four elements are required for the production of the new Audi e-fuels: water, CO2, sunlight and tailored, single-cell microorganisms less than a thousandth of a millimeter in size. Just like plants, these conduct oxygen photosynthesis, which means that they use sunlight and CO2 in order to grow. They do not need an environment of clean drinking water; saltwater or process water are sufficient. Oxygen is produced as a byproduct of the process.
Audi's partner, the biotech company Joule of Bedford, Massachusetts, founded in 2007, has optimized this process so that the microorganisms produce and excrete either ethanol or alkanes – key components of diesel fuels – directly from carbon dioxide (CO2) and sunlight. The CO2 required for photosynthesis can come from the exhaust flow of a factory or biogas plant or even from the air. The fuels are separated from the water and cleaned.
The Audi-Joule joint demonstration plant was opened in 2012 in Hobbs, New Mexico, a very sunny region of the United States. The first Audi e-ethanol was produced in early 2013 in transparent plastic tubes. Audi e-diesel is expected to follow in the next few years. The chemical properties of Audi e-ethanol are identical to those of classic bioethanol. This e-ethanol can be admixed with fossil fuel gasoline (e.g. E10) or, alternatively, can be used as the basis for E85 fuel (85 percent ethanol, 15 percent gasoline).
Audi and Joule are working at the same time to produce synthetic diesel fuel, Audi e-diesel. A major advantage of the new fuel will be its purity. In contrast to petroleum diesel, it is free of sulfur and aromatics. Audi e-diesel will also offer excellent ignition performance thanks to its high cetane number. And its chemical composition will permit unlimited blending with fossil fuel diesel.
The demonstration plant already illustrates the major advantages of Audi e-ethanol and Audi e-diesel over conventional bioethanol and biodiesel: No biomass is required for the production of the new fuels, and they can be produced in regions that are unsuitable for agriculture. Their yield per acre (0.0015 square miles) is expected to be roughly 20 times greater than with conventional biofuels produced from corn, for example. The comprehensive life cycle analysis shows the tremendous potential of the Audi e-fuels for reducing CO2 emissions. A car that uses Audi e-fuels ultimately has a CO2 footprint on par with that of an electric car powered by electricity generated with wind or solar energy.
The collaboration with Joule dates back to 2011. Audi has acquired the exclusive automotive-sector rights to its American partner's patented technology. The collaboration also includes technical support, where the German engineers are contributing their expertise in the area of fuel and engine testing. Commercial production of the new fuels could begin within the next five years.

Moulin Rouge, the new film directed by Baz Luhrmann (of Strictly Ballroom [1992] and Romeo and Juliet [1996), is now playing at the Galaxy 6, Century Park 7, Scotts Valley Cinemas, Green Valley Cinemas and the Riverfront Stadium Twin. It's not a movie for everyone, just as Romeo and Juliet was not: folks, especially baby boomers and post-baby boomers, complained about the frenetic cuts, the frantic and loud music, and the garish colors. But for genXers, born and raised on MTV, and for those of us tired of the same old movie fare, and also for people who like the challenge of recognizing citations and subtexts, remixes and covers, this film is sheer delight. Set in 1899 Paris, this musical movie is a story about a starving bohemian artist Christian (Ewan McGregor) who falls in with a group of Bohemian actors, playrights and songwriters-one of whom, played by John Leguizamo, is conveniently named Toulouse-Lautrec-and inadvertently writes a musical for the infamous Moulin Rouge music hall and cabaret. His first ditty? It's a catchy tune that begins: "the hills are alive . . . with the sound of music"! He predictably falls in love with the star of the club, the courtesan Satine (played by Nicole Kidman), who has to court the Duke of Worcester so that he will finance the show and allow her to become a "real" actress, like Sarah Bernhardt. Zidler, the owner of the cabaret (magnificently acted by Jim Broadbent), basically sells her to the Duke, while she and Christian fall in love. And so it goes, the tragic plot of star-crossed love seasoned by the cynical edge of show business.
This is a daring and raucous tribute to musicals and to the popular music of the last half-century, with an accent on the last ten to twenty years. If you know the songs and love them, it'll be extra fun. If you know the musicals and catch the quotes, you'll feel oh-so clever. You might even get the operatic references, and the references to other covers of famous songs and other adaptations of famous shows: for example, there's a fabulous scene called "El Tango de Roxanne," which combines a deep and sinister remake of Sting's song "Roxanne" with choreography from Carlos Saura's movie version of Carmen. Luhrmann treats the expression "tour de force" as a dare. My favorite scene-and the one that will turn off sedate movie goers with its manic cuts and pans-is the can can rendition of Lady Marmalade's famous song that is a hit in its most recent cover version by all the current ladies of "lite" soul. The song turns into a medley of "Voulez-vous coucher avec moi," and Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit." And it works beautifully, giving new meaning to the word "hybridity." One of the things that makes one so happy about all this is that it's a musical that adapts the popular songs we already love, instead of trying to teach us some new and unfamiliar ones.
Ok, lest I wax too enthusiastic (I loved this movie), one might have some complaints that McGregor and Kidman, singing the boy-girl duets themselves, are not quite up to the challenge of the great musical romantic couple. But the point is not really the love story or the character sketches-it's the spectacle and it's the virtuosity of the director, it's the sheer joy and excitement and fun of pageantry, of cinematic and musical magic.
And yet, behind all this fin-de-siècle spectacle lurks the shadow of empire: the narrative of the play within the play features the exoticism of India and stages the sexual predation of the colonized other upon innocent femininity. Toulouse-in spite of his illustrious name, is played as an exaggeratedly comic character and racially marked; there is a nameless Black man dressed in Moorish garb who assists the dancers and actors. In short, the movie displays turn-of-the-century Orientalism in all its gaudy and colonial splendor. In that it is being historically accurate; what I couldn't tell was whether it was a critical perspective on the ideology that exoticized the colonial other and thereby erased the violence of the empire's colonial ventures. Maybe it is critical: after all, there is a moral to the magnificent and extravagant, decadently staged story of decadence, that Moulin Rouge presents.

HIDALGO COUNTY - An Edinburg resident is turning to technology to keep his home safe from burglars.
The man said thieves have targeted his home several times. The most recent burglary happened this morning.
This time, though, cameras were rolling, he said. The homeowner said the $1,000 surveillance system captured images of the thieves breaking into his property.
"It looks like they weren't scared. They were on the property for about 30 minutes. They went up to the house and walked around the vehicles. They've done it before,"
the man said.
"Throughout the years, they've stolen many things from us - trailers, equipment and tools," he said.
He decided to install the surveillance equipment after he heard the news about home invasions in Hidalgo County.
"What the thieves didn't realize was that security cameras covered the property; they were caught from every angle," the homeowner said.
He installed the cameras two months ago, after a burglary.
"Once they opened the door I guess they realized they were on the monitor. They saw themselves on the monitor and started covering their faces," he said.
The thieves cut the camera wires, but left behind the most important piece of equipment.
"They left the DVR here. They just took the two cameras," the homeowner said.
The homeowner turned the evidence over to authorities. He hopes someone will recognize the suspects.
Anyone with information on the case is asked to call Hidalgo County Crime Stoppers at 956-668-8477.

HOT TOPICS: Alcoholism Addiction AA Cocaine Heroin
Jamie Moyer's Dry Tailgate for Addicts' Children
A foundation run by the veteran baseball star and his wife will highlight and help the cause of the children of addicts on Friday.
At the age of 48, former Philly Jamie Moyer, with a career spanning four decades, is still aiming to pitch in Major League Baseball in 2012. But his dedication to baseball and his staying power are matched by his philanthropy. The Moyer Foundation, run largely by his wife, Karen, helps children in great distress. Charitable organizations have often overlooked the plight of the children of addicts, even though an estimated eight million American kids live with at least one alcoholic parent, for example—and these children are thought to be four times more likely than average to become alcoholics themselves. But the Moyers have risen to the challenge. Their foundation runs Camp Mariposa, a first-of-its-kind camp designed to meet the needs of children living with addicted family members. This Friday Jamie and Karen will be hosting "Dry Tailgate," a benefit at Notre Dame football's home opener in Indiana, to benefit Camp Mariposa. It'll feature live music, magic and comedy, a meal and a silent auction of items including sports memorabilia and a luxury vacation. You can find out more or make a donation here. "Addiction affects many, including kids who have to live with it," Karen Moyer explained to The Fix. "Camp Mariposa gives kids the tools to live with it and the education to be different. They need our support. We can change this issue of addiction for the next generation. Dry Tailgate is a great event doing just that!" Staying sober, watching football, and helping kids sounds like a good combination to us. Nice work, Moyers!

The first Coal Bed Methane production is targeted to happen in second quarter of 2011. The production is expected to come from West Sangatta I working area operated by West Sangatta CBM Ltd.
The Indonesian Executive Agency for Oil and Gas Upstream (BP Migas) target that by May 2011 at least 1 Million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD) will have been produced which can generate around 2.5 Mw of electricity.
According to BP Migas Operational Control Deputy, Budi Indiato, West Sangatta has completed drilling 3 wells in 2010 and has started to drill the fourth well since January 2011.
In parallel, discussions have also been held with local state owned corporation for the possibility of working together selling the gas produced from the wells.
Since its development in 2008 the Coal Bed Methane exploration have continue to expand. This year there are five contractor of Coal Bed Methane working area predicted to be producing gas. Other than West Sangatta, those contractors are CBM Sekayu working area operated by Medco Energy International, Tanjung Enim by Arrow PTE, Bariot Banjar by Indobarambai and Sanga-sanga operated by Vico.
Each of these working areas is estimated to produce 1 MMSCFD except for Sanga-sanga which will produce 1.5 MMSCFD. "The rest of the contractor will hopefully start producing by the third quarter of 2011" says Budi.
The total production of 5.5 MMSCFD or equivalent to 13.75 Mw will be turned into electricity and made available to consumer around the working areas.
In the past two years, the Indonesian Government has been heavily promoting CBM. Indonesia's CBM potential is one of the five largest in the world. Its resources reach 453.3 trillion cubic feet (TCF) spread over in 11 basins.
The government is actively offer new working area. Having had a 23 CBM working area concession in 2011, the government plans to offer another 13 new CBM area concession as well as 10 CBM cooperation contracts.
As an initial step, gas from the CBM is projected to meet the needs of small-scale power in 2011. According to the government work plan, CBM production is expected to reach 500 MMSCFD in 2015, 1,000 MMSCFD in 2020, and 1,500 MMSCFD by the year 2025.

that would b pretty sweet, hahaha.
i recken we def need to check out this place near musgrave park.....
i think we should be able to get least 6 ppl for a go??
mallets wont be a problem,
just a venue i guess...
Don't fuss about nets just yet - you don't need that much gear to get a match going. For the most part the ball will be staying fairly close to the ground so the most you'll need is a court with a gutter around each edge. These can be harder to find than you think. Otherwise you may have to resort to constructing timber edging - discarded freight pallets are perfect for this, and fun to break up :-D - and then work out if you want to stash them at your court or take them home every time you play.
It's not that much of a hassle playing on an open concrete area - but like indoor soccer it's just easier to play in an enclosed space. Play moves a bit quicker and you don't have to frig around with throw-in rules and 'if you guys hit it out then we get to start with it rite?' arguments.
Alone you cannot it resist. Team ._. Schwa
Hey fellas - new to the forum, rediscovering riding fixed after a few years. I've been keen to play bike polo for a while, but didn't know where to start. Would be keen to join in if you are willing to forget what your mum told you and talk to strangers.
Hey Guys, I'm down on the Gold Coast but I'd love to play bike polo if I can get there.
Anything happening?
well there seems to be enough interest for me to justify going out and purchasing the stuff needed to make the mallets!
its on its way, i shall keep you guys posted...
p.s. i wouldnt mind maybe a couple of hands to help make said mallets
When we get set for a time and place I will rush out a mallet. I will have a look over at reverse garbage in West End on the weekend - they have all sorts of crap if I see anything good for mallets I will buy in bulk.
I have some field hockey balls we could use too. They are probably too big and will smash out your spokes if they hit a wheel, but they should do until a better option can be found.
What sort of gear ratio do the 'pros' normally run? I would guess the lower the better for those bursts of speed.
yeah looks like theres enough interest round... Nate, will help making these mallets if you want
user: SuperMaxPower, what about squash balls? probably too small?
user: locmonster, I was also thinking about those bigger blue balls (I think they are for racket ball) but they would be way too bouncy.
What are the boys in Melbourne using?
We're using street hockey ball (imported from canada by the good mr urbanbicyclist, but I believe he's working on an australian source). Send me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com and I'll post a few up.
My bike is fixed with a gear of 36x19, fantastic for polo, horrible for riding 10-15km into polo (I need a freewheel on the other side of the hub..)
I swear you guys read my mind? I just moved from Melbourne to Brisbane and have been thinking of trying to start some Polo here! Played a game with the Melbourne crew so I'm no expert but I do know the basics.
Gear: I've already got 5 golf clubs from the salvos that I'm converting to mallets so only need one more for 3 on 3 action. I noted that someone has hockey balls so it sounds like we're sorted. I can arrange something for goals (just need traffic cones or similar).
You don't need a fixie to play, any bike will do, just watch those expensive Velocities with stray mallets!
I'm in H/Hill so West End works for me. If we get a game on I suggest we meet up at a cafe in West End beforehand.
Sunday arvo is a good time for a game, how about 4pm? meet at a cafe beforehand around 3:15 then onto the court. Suggestions for cafe?
Can people give me a nod as to whether they can play on Sunday 5th October?

Why not help all U.S. youth?
As a concerned citizen, I must ask why our president chose just two segments of our youth to receive special privileges. Why were Asians and caucasians excluded from the disadvantaged youth program? These youths face the same circumstances as African-Americans and Hispanics.
JANE FINCH, Charleston, Tenn.
Religious liberty at stake
The onslaught of judicial "gay rights" rulings rendered by progressive federal judges supports a well-orchestrated plan to neuter the power of the church. Religious liberty -- the first freedom of Americans -- has always demanded that the state respect private and public expressions of religious faith. However, following Niccolo Machiavelli's direction during the Middle Ages, the state is purposefully extinguishing the church's cultural or moral power of influence, thereby rendering it as a harmless subordinate instrument of the political state. The state recognizes that principled people of faith present the only real threat to their complete dominance of an otherwise naive society, and Barack Obama is driving a relentless plan toward total control. If the state can force photographers to shoot intimate photos at an LGBT wedding against their deep religious beliefs, they will soon stop ministers, rabbis and priests from speaking against any "sin" that is counter to the state's secular PC guidelines. And if corporations can pressure governors to veto bills, or a single judge can reverse a peoples' referendum on matters of the soul, this spells the loss of our religious freedom, and positions the state to be our god.
Disagreeing with Connie Chung
Having spent my career in the male-dominated concrete industry, I feel qualified to disagree vehemently with some of Connie Chung's advice for succeeding in the business world. (1) Never tell a dirty joke or accept one as appropriate. That is not only a violation of sexual harassment law, it brands a woman as willing to accept a low level of unprofessionalism. (2) "Offend them before they offend you" only leads to downgrading. The whole idea is to improve the workplace, not bring women down to a lower level. When did "a potty mouth" become an asset? (3) "Act more like men?" There is a difference between aggressive and assertive. Aggressiveness in a woman leads to unpleasant name-calling; assertiveness has a chance of leading to better things. The Chattanooga Women's Leadership Institute is a fine organization, dedicated to helping women get ahead. I hope the young women in the audience will not be influenced by this ill-advised counsel.
JO COKE, Signal Mountain
Jesus and Obamacare
A recent letter about Congress' low approval rating is spot on. Indeed, for some of Obama's tea party detractors whom I run into, I say: "OK, you hate Obama, fine! I hate lima beans." This is typical about Obama haters who otherwise cannot think past their Fox News talking points. But why -- especially you evangelicals -- do you hate Obamacare? Shame on you people! Don't you know that God's work is providing health insurance for those who heretofore could not get it? I am sure Jesus would agree.
MIKE C. BODINE, East Ridge
Let's stop meth now
Re: "East Tennessee meth sweep nets 20 suspects." Where is the investigative work and reporting that would support changes in our laws to make pseudoephedrine drugs require a prescription? Our Sen. Bo Watson worked against this proven method of curtailing the meth epidemic and is opposing the governor's common-sense changes by citing a dubious "convenience" factor. Tennessee is No. 1 in meth, and three years of monitoring where the ephedrine sales are occurring has allowed us to pack our prisons with meth addicts and dealers. We now spend more money on prisons than on education, we have no burn unit in Chattanooga because of meth, and our brave law enforcement personnel are put at risk daily from the toxic materials and people making these drugs. The merchants of meth send their lobbyists to Nashville to purchase our legislators' complicity in this scam that benefits their corporations and the prison industry but leaves Tennesseans with a bill estimated by one source at $1.6 billion when the damage, the enforcement, prosecution, prison and probation cycle are calculated. Convenient, I suppose, for them. We are sleepwalking through hell. Please do some research and speak out.
CARTER PADEN, Signal Mountain
Please list U.S. content
I am always disappointed when I read your weekly auto reviews by Ken Chester and others that they don't include the percent of U.S. content in the reviews. This should be a very important piece of information to consider when buying a new vehicle. There are Hondas and Toyotas that have 80 percent U.S. content and Fords and Chevys that have 20 percent or less. As an example, the Ford Fusion is made in Mexico and is not providing American jobs. I think people in the U.S. are finally becoming more aware about how much damage imports of all kinds are doing to our economy, and killing jobs in the U.S. Of course there are auto companies like Mazda, Infiniti and Audi that don't produce anything in the U.S., which is a disaster for us. If every American just spent $1 more per day on "made in America" products instead of imports it would add $109 billion a year to the economy and provide 2.7 million jobs here. How much longer can we delay getting everyone on board to save America? Our paper can help by adding the U.S. content percent to all vehicle reviews.
ERIC FLAMING, Fort Oglethorpe
Government and Supreme Court have made it clear that religious freedom in the largest sense applies to beliefs, but actions are not privy to the same protection. Anti polygamy law comes to mind, but any action that violates reasonable laws or infringes upon the civil rights of another is not by necessity protected because it falls under "religious exercise" and the freedom thereof.
Someone said...
If God does not judge the United States of America He will have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah!
Get ready folks, You haven't seen anything yet regarding obvious punishment/judgment of the anti-Christ Rebels against the Word of our Thrice Holy God...Jesus Christ. Just as the Children of Israel had beautiful light in their dwellings when all of Pharaoh's population had darkness, we shall see the plagues upon the Goats (as distinct to the Sheep of Jesus Christ), and have pity upon them!
Ken ORR
You have my sympathy, Ms. JANE FINCH. I know it must be frustrating to search desperately for hours for a complaint against the President and this was the best you could do.
On another note, I will personally apologize to the little children of Sodom and Gomorrah slaughtered by a spiteful, power hungry god.
"Power hungry God" ? Why would GOD, the ultimate Power, be power hungry? Who's he competing with?
That bogus initiative is just make BO feel like he's down with the struggle. He was raised by white commies/anti-americans in Hawaii. I guess he feels guilty for having grown up in Hawaii instead of the south side of Chicago. Guilt is what drives many libs, or control.
Mr. Bodine,
When Nathan the prophet told King David of a story where a rich man fed a traveler visiting his town with the sheep of the poor man from that same town, god didn't think it was too good. The rich man in his abundance could have provided for the traveler with his own resources but he didn't, he TOOK from the poor man to meet the travelers need. That is you and the epitome of the progressive ideology. You and the roo's and the alprovas on here refuse to meet the needs you see around you but demand others meet it with the assistance of the government and the tax code. You ideology is nothing more than the promoting and robbing of the poor. You are even forcing the poor to provide jobs for those better off them.
Mr. Shearer, you are perfectly free to attend your church 7 days a week, 24 hours a day if you so choose. You may read your Bible in public, you many hand out religious tracts telling all non-believers that we are going to hell, you may even pray out loud on street corners if you want to. Nobody is trying to take that away from you. What you cannot do is push your insane religious agenda in our public schools or any branch of our government or carry your religion over into the public sector to such an extent that the rights of people whose beliefs are different from yours are violated.
But unfortunately you and your arrogant self-righteous ilk keep trying to infiltrate our government and influence our legislators to pass draconian laws that adversely affect women and minorities and give undue favoritism to your Neanderthal-ish thinking. Nobody is trying to take away your religious freedom, we are just trying to keep your meddlesome stinking hands out of places they don't belong.
Does anybody remember those commercials that aired back in the 80s, the ones that said, "This is your brain on drugs (picture of a raw egg in a skillet)...this is your brain after drugs (picture of an egg in the process of being scrambled)?" Well, Ken Orr is a perfect example of a brain cooked and fried on religion (his drug of choice). Ken Orr, do you honestly have no idea what a babbling lunatic you sound like? Get help, sir.
Soakya, you have beaten that horse to death, bubba - about me and other liberals refusing to meet the needs of the poor, blah blah blah. I do not make comments about your personal life and do you know why that is? Because I know that I DON'T KNOW how you conduct the personal affairs of your life, and furthermore I don't care. Nor do you know one iota about my personal life. So if you want to retain a shred of legitimacy shut up already with your asinine accusatory remarks about people you don't even know.
The fact of the matter is that I do indeed give quite generously, and on a regular basis, to three of my favorite charities, and I give personally, as the situation might arise and to what extent I am able, to whatever individual(s) might be in need. But individual charity can only go so far. I am not hurting financially but I am not rich either. I cannot and will not give to such an extent that I myself would become needy. That would be absurd.
It is a sign of how mentally challenged you are to think that individual charity is the way to combat hunger or poverty or lack of education or to help the uninsured get the health care they need. There are so many living with unfilled tangible needs throughout the nation that the amount it would take to take care of them would strain the budgets of even the richest among us. I give in what ways I am able but I can only give so much. In the meantime I am going to continue to speak out for an end to our fascist government that is rigged in favor of the rich and big business while it calls for more and more austerity and demeans and punishes those at the bottom.
Alright one more time, let me see if I got this right. You say individuals can't meet the needs to combat hunger and poverty but the government can collect taxes from those same individuals and somehow now after adding a middleman they can meet the needs. And you think you're sane.
You're not speaking out against a fascist government, you speak out against individual freedoms. The very government that you support is the one that demeans and punishes those at the bottom. The government you support makes the guy making 10. per hour contribute his tax dollars to support the vw worker making 22. per hour. You, Mr.Bodine and your progressive friends are the rich guy in the story, you have the means to meet many needs yet you don't but that doesn't stop you from taking and demanding of others. Do what you can do then and only then can you PREACH to others about the poor.
I'll continue to beat it until you put your money where your mouth is.
here's a prime example of someone who wants to provide for the needs of those in poverty with tax dollars but refuses to use his own money. this individual in 2010 gave a meager 1.4% or 5,350 dollars on 379,178 dollars of adjusted gross income. who was it? none other than joe biden. Now does anyone really believe he cares for those in need?
Very good soakya!
But I believe I can top that, Bill Clinton once claimed a tax deduction for his used underwear that he donated to either Goodwill or the Salvation Army.
i believe you did top that. I believe you would find this is the rule for the progressive not the exception.
on another note looks like the president likes my idea of expanding the earned income tax creit he just wants to fund it differently than I do. he's coming after you s-corp owners. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2014/03/03/obama-budget-earned-income-tax-credit/5991663/
Aww, isn't that cute - the two stooges high-fiving each other!
I don't respond directly to con-man because he long ago proved himself to be certifiably insane and I don't waste my time with maniacs. Soakya, you're only a few degrees removed from being certifiable yourself so I'm very near to just ignoring you entirely too. You don't make a bit of sense, buckaroo, and I'm not going to waste any more time with your childish idiocy. The only difference between you and the con-man is that you don't quote those god-awful Babble verses like he does ad nauseum. But other than that there's not a hair's breadth of difference between you two goons. No matter what I say you are going to disagree so why waste my time refuting your easily refutable arguments? I have had my say on this topic and I stand by it. Time to move on to other things.
you have refuted nothing, you never do. I believe the commander has called you out numerous times on your sources and your blabbering and you never provide them. I have asked you numerous times to explain how individuals cannot meet the needs of those in poverty but you believe the government can by confiscating dollars from those same individuals to meet the needs and you can't do it. You are moronic and infantile in your thinking and a loud mouth arrogant atheist that worships himself as most progressives do.
I am going to say this and then I'm done with you. You are like a gnat. You don't really say anything of substance, you just buzz around annoyingly and make your disgusting presence known.
First off, I have had maybe 2 exchanges with Commander in the past and I don't know what the hell you are talking about when you say that I have been "called out" by him on my sources or lack thereof. I don't get into playing that silly "source" game because every source can easily be refuted by some other source favorable to whatever ideology one is defending. I don't care how unbiased a source might be, you conservatives call it a "liberal" source if it happens to dispute your argument. I have seen posters here butt heads over and over and over again, supplying sources to substantiate their arguments, and in the end it's all for naught, no one was swayed in the least by the other. Like I said earlier...no matter what I say, you are going to disagree with me anyway, so what difference does it make whether I provide a source for my comments or not? That's why I don't spend entire days on this forum like so many of you deadbeats because I have better things to do than to waste my time wrestling in the mud with you conservative pigs, knowing that in the end we are going to still disagree anyway. I have had more time on my hands today than I usually do and that is why I am still here but I am beginning to suffocate in this dank, fetid air with you lame-brained rabid righties regurgitating your nonsense. After I have my say here I am getting out of this cesspool that you RWNJs have infested with your ignorance and bile.
As for explaining to you how individuals cannot meet the needs of those in poverty, I have pretty much done so. I can't help it if you are too stupid to see the basis for my argument. I am not saying or even implying that raising taxes alone would eradicate poverty or hunger or inadequate health care or lack of education, but higher taxes on the rich certainly needs to be one of the main avenues of revenue, especially considering that approximately 85 Americans have over 40% of all the wealth in this country. Hell yes, we need to tax them more! And raising the minimum wage to at least $10/hr. would instantly elevate tens of thousands of Americans out of poverty and get them off the government dole. Not to mention, it would be an invigorating shot in the arm for this sluggish economy.
The main problem with individual charity is that some few would take it upon themselves to give but many would not or could not. That is why taxation has always been a reliable source of revenue for greasing the wheels of government and society, because it assures a steady stream of revenue for the elemental things needed to make it work. You conservatives like to call it "stealing" but that is only because you lack the intelligence to see that taxation is simply what every government of every society in the history of humankind has utilized to keep it afloat and productive. Taxes are not "stealing," they are simply a necessary fact of life if you want to live in a civilized society.
Now...enough! I have wasted way too much time on the likes of a simpleton like you. Rickaroo is leaving the building.

Just switched to a new type of HIIT today using mountain climbers I am using a 1:2 work/rest ratio with a 30 second and one min interval. For the rest I am doing a casual walk around the garage if Im not to gassed sucks in the Florida heat This is by far one of the best HIIT programs Ive done and just wanted pass along the idea for anyone looking to get started.. HIIT does not have to be only sprint on the treadmill. The only thing Im not 100% sure about is how many calories I am burning during the exercise; however I know the after burn and the EPOC (Excess Post Exercise Oxygen Consumption) are the biggest goals in mind. If anyone can give me a ballpark figure let me know. Ive been putting 300 in my log books because Im going balls out drop to the floor. (23y/M/61/185lb/9%).. Comments- questions feel free.

Los Alamos National Laboratory (SULI)
I found out about the SULI through flyers posted around Rieke, as well as announcements in my science classes. I researched the internship online and spoke with my academic advisor, and she thought I would be a strong candidate.
What did you do at your internship?
I worked in the Earth and Environmental Sciences Division at Los Alamos National Laboratory in Los Alamos, New Mexico. The overall research conducted in my division was on tree mortality due to climate change. My project focused on how climate change affects stomatal conductance, the rate of CO2 and H2O exchange at the stomata of tree foliage. The two tree species I studied were piñon pine and one-seed juniper. My work over the summer consisted of working in three settings: out in the field where I gathered data, a laboratory where I made further measurements on tree foliage samples, and an office where I entered data into a computer and created graphs that analyzed relationships between various aspects of tree foliage. A neat opportunity for me was to compile all my research into a poster and present it at a poster symposium near the end of my internship; this opportunity definitely provided me with a feeling that I accomplished quite a bit in one summer.
What helped make your internship a success?
My mentor at the laboratory was certainly a key component in making this internship a success. He introduced me to the rest of the research team, taught me to use the scientific instrumentation, and broadened my scientific research knowledge in tree physiology. The other staff members provided me with information about scientific research and introduced another possible career path. Working with the staff members allowed me to observe first-hand what it is like to be a scientific researcher at a national laboratory.
What did you learn from your internship, academically?
I gained experience in field research and learned various methods and techniques when gathering and analyzing data. This summer's research exposed me to meaningful research in tree physiology and field and laboratory techniques. This internship reinforced the fact that the classes I am taking now and the time I am devoting to my studies are preparing me for a meaningful career. I know my classes are rigorous, but the knowledge I take away from them is so valuable and will be very useful when I start my career.
Did you take this internship for credit?
I took this internship for biology credit. To earn this credit, I wrote weekly reports throughout my internship documenting all my experiences while working, I wrote a final scientific report that included all my data and analysis, and I wrote a final reflective report of what I learned from my internship and how it influenced me for the future.
What advice would you give students wanting to intern with SULI?
Do not be intimidated by the fact that SULI is a national internship. The classes and experiences I participated in at PLU prior to the internship prepared me well as I filled out the application. I had no previous research experience before this internship, but I believe the laboratory experiences at PLU and my letters of recommendation were strong factors in obtaining my internship. It is very important to establish meaningful relationships with professors in order to receive strong letters of recommendation. Also, before choosing laboratories on the application, look on the laboratory websites make sure research you are interested in is available.
