Getting Pregnant
Labor and Delivery
Baby and Beyond
after 22 months of nursing my DD we are done. She was to the point of only nursing like 5 minutes before nap and bed and once in the middle of the night. I felt if i just gave her a little push she would be ok. It worked and she could really care less. It was 2 nights of crying for 2 minutes and asking for boobies and thats it. Now she is sleeping all night pretty much. She wakes up 1 time for a second to have a drink of water and goes right back to sleep. It is bitter sweet but we are going to start trying for #4 this summer so i will be doing it all again. I just wanted to thank all of you for your support for these past almost 2 years. Many of you dont even know you helped me along the way.
Sara, congrats on a good long run of nursing...and what sounds like a very positive weaning experience.
So excited for you to try for #4! Can't wait to follow that story!
Mara & Joel, 2009
Yay for 22 months!!!! That is awesome! How exciting about TTC #4 soon.!
~Joy~ DS1-8/5/05, DS2-10/18/10 (VBAC#1), DS3- 4/11/12 (VBAC#2!)
Congrats on 22 months!

Kim Kardashian is back from her whirlwind trip to Miami. The celebrity mom took some time over the weekend to enjoy a date night with Kanye West. Kim and Kanye dressed up and headed out to see a movie together near their home in Calabasas. Kim looked fabulous in her tight red dress and gold shoes. Kanye opted for a sweater and jeans.
KIM KARDASHIAN And KANYE WEST
Celeb Moms Kourtney And Kim Kardashian Take Miami
Celebrity moms Kourtney Kardashian and Kim Kardashian are taking Miami by storm. The reality stars are spending time in Miami while they film their show "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" and open their latest DASH boutique. The Kardashian family landed in Florida and immediately got to work, shooting and hit the red carpet. [Read more…]
North Will Have Siblings, But Not As Many As Kim Has!
Something tells me Kimye is flying back out west. Here's Kim Kardashian and Kanye West leaving their NYC apartment with baby North. It's clear they were trying to keep North from being photographed. I don't know how Kim managed, between the fans snapping pics while she was pushing North's stroller and the throng of paparazzi waiting outside. Kanye had an impressive mean face for everyone assembled, but it looks like Kim did the heavy lifting here. Kim opened up to Ryan Seacrest about her thoughts about more kids after her difficult pregnancy.
After being pregnant, I would definitely say I'd never do this again. It was a really hard pregnancy. But I love my daughter so much and I know what it was like to grow up with siblings, so I definitely want to have more. "I'm definitely not going the route my mom did. She is crazy. When I was giving birth, I looked at her and said, 'I'm going to buy you a medal.'"
LOL! Kim said she was considering "three kids, tops." She also admitted that while she had wanted kids and loves her daughter, she'd been a little scared, too, during her pregnancy.
My daughter is like the cutest thing ever. I know every parent says that about their own kid, [but] … She is the sweetest, she's the calmest and all she does is laugh. Like she just will laugh at anything you say. I'll put my toe right near her and she'll just start cracking up. She's the sweetest, happiest baby I've ever seen."
"I never thought I'd say that. I went into this so scared – so scared of every last thing … I've always wanted kids, but for some reason, when I got pregnant I was so scared. Everything everyone tells you about having a kid and how it'll change your life and it's the greatest experience and you'll love it – it's that times one hundred."
I think a lot of moms can relate to that! Despite really wanting kids, it's still an anxious time the first time you're getting ready to have one.

Celebrity Parents Kim Kardashian And Kanye West Take NYC
Celeb parents Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are spending some time in NYC this week. Kim has been taping for the new season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians and Kanye is working in the studio on some new music. Nori's parents have been keeping the paparazzi busy this week, but sadly we've had no sign of North anywhere!
Kim and her sisters Khloe and Kourtney have been bopping around NYC, visiting their DASH store, grabbing dinner out and keeping the photographers busy. Kim has been showing off her winter fashions as she eats out with Kanye and visits him at the studio. Last night they enjoyed a dinner date and stayed bundled up against the chilly temps. Kim wore a figure hugging black dress paired with a black fur coat. I wonder if their daughter North stayed back in Cali or if they're just keeping her tucked in their apartment (or hotel) instead?
Kim and her sisters are celebrating the new Kardashian Kids collection that will be launching with Babies R Us next month. Are you going to check out the line? I'm anxious to see the styles and pricing.

Trainer John Beneduce channels his athletic ability into CrossFit, a high-intensity, functional workout that he customizes for all ages and fitness levels. He and his wife opened CrossFit Bayside to offer an effective alternative to standard gyms.
?The way we do it at CrossFit Bayside is pretty much the total opposite of how a traditional gym would work,? John said. Rather than coming in to use equipment solo, members attend a packed schedule of one-hour sessions, which all begin with a warm-up before everyone spends about 15 minutes mastering new techniques. Once they can safely and effectively do the workout, students get to work, hoisting medicine balls, swinging kettlebells, climbing ropes, and dead-lifting weights. The workouts change each day, and John usually waits about three months before repeating one. As groups cool down, John leads a discussion on a health-related topic, ranging from nutritional information to how to keep a fitness journal without making your diary jealous.
?We really care about our members,? John said. ?My wife and I run it together as a family business.? He added that the members themselves uphold the gym's mission, warmly welcoming new members and throwing themselves fully into each workout. ?There?s no negative energy at my gym,? he said.
At Movie World Cinemas, a recently added caf? draws in early arrivers with pizza, chicken tenders, fries and fresh cappuccinos. Patrons can linger there before heading to one of seven handsome screening chambers with projection capacity for traditional film and 3-D movies. Once inside, guests recline on shiny, new seats styled by Mobiliario Seating. Each throne includes cushy upholstery, a built-in cup holder, and ergonomically engineered lumbar support. Newly installed digital projectors show crystal-clear images while digital surround-sound speakers shake seats with the screeches of onscreen car chases and the weeping of James Bond?s dry cleaner. In the large main lobby, the digital burble of a small arcade stirs air scented heavily by sunshine-hued popcorn. The staff has spent the past few years working on a series of updates and improvements, and the movie palace regularly hosts special events and children?s parties.
Some people work out in the morning, some people work out in the evening, and some people work out in the middle of the night. To accommodate the fitness schedules of all types, Bell Plaza Sports Club offers 24-hour access 7 days a week to its four-story facility that boasts a private sun deck. With all the time in the world at their disposal, exercisers can boost their endurance in the cardio training center, build muscle in the strength and toning areas, and partake in a variety of fitness classes—there are more than 35 available each week. They can also work one-on-one with a certified professional during customized personal training sessions—an ideal setting for progressing toward fitness goals such as bench-pressing their personal trainer.
With chef Frank Lynch at the gustatory helm, Bourbon Street Cafe serves up tasty Cajun meals that have earned it an award for Best Brunch on a Budge from Page Six Magazine. Dishes such as blackened catfish and New Orleans po boys compete for attention with the house-specialty seafood gumbo and jambalaya, in which chicken and shrimp carouse with ground zydeco notes in a creole-sauce-slathered nest of spicy rice and andouille sausage. The large eatery further captures the essence of a New Orleans?style caf? with its colorful wall murals, fringed tabletop lamps, and plates accompanied by Mardi Gras beads, and its multiple flat-screen TVs light up with Sunday football action when the New York Scallywags play the New England Ne?er-do-wells.
The warm, always affable staff oversees a symphony of clinking glasses at Brew House. They maintain a convivial atmosphere that features plenty of brews, bar food, and flat-screen TVs airing sports. With bottles of Corona or Sam Adams, the staff serves housemade empanadas, coconut shrimp, and Brew House fries topped with cheese, bacon, and green onions with a side of gravy. The kitchen team's grill also turns out sandwiches, wraps, and a Cowboy burger topped with cheddar, bacon, barbecue sauce, and onion rings. Exposed brick walls, rich wood paneling, and gold-patterned hanging lamps welcome patrons to cozy booths, whereas a seat at the bar affords the best look at the TVs and more liquor bottles than Winston Churchill had in his vault.
At Conga's Bar & Lounge, the weekend begins on Thursday night, when DJs set up their decks for the first of three straight evenings of musical mixology. They lob Latin and Top 40 beats through the venue, caroming subtle bass lines and fervent tempos off the Cuban-themed décor.
All week long Conga's kitchen slings wings spun in signature sauces, such as cranberry honey mustard, Louisiana ranch, and a Jack Daniel's zest. Bartenders pour pitchers from 11 beers on tap, and they also dice fruit for sangria and shake exotic cocktails, such as the electric-red or blue fishbowl, named for its globe-like cup and ice cubes shaped like tiny plastic castles.

We stayed here for a week (Sat to Sat) at the end of July. It was fantastic! It is easy to find right off the main road, but you wouldn't know that a four lane road was right behind the complex. Grocery stores, shopping, and restaurants are very conveniently located.
We stayed in #4204, a pet-friendly unit. The place was super clean, no animal smell whatsoever. The beds were extremely comfortable, even the bunks for the kids. There are two bathrooms with a commode, sink, and closet. These two bathrooms connect to the shower room, which also holds the washer & dryer. NOTE: The floor in this room gets extremely slippery with steam, water, and sunscreen. I suggest taking a non-slip bath mat. I found out the hard way. I avoided a trip to the emergency room, but I'm still suffering. Having RA doesn't help either. :-(
The kitchen had everything you need for cooking meals for the family. The fridge is huge and the ice maker is such a wonderful addition! I have to thank the owner for this thoughtful amenity. We mostly ate meals we cooked ourselves, and there were many utensils and pots and pans. NOTE: The only drawbacks were the lack of enough bowls for cereal & snacks and no sharp knives.
The starter kits of paper towels, dishwasher tablets, dish liquid, and TP were plenty, but we took extra just in case. Also, there were many towels and washclothes for the family. Just bring your beach towels! Our unit came with beach service, but I noticed an additional beach chair in the master closet.
The sofa was comfy, with that worn in comfort. But, it is almost to the point of being worn out. So it's just on that tricky cusp of comfy and worn out. We did not use the sofa bed. We did, however, love the bunk beds and the king size bed. I enjoyed the king size so much that I would purchase whatever brand it was, but I forgot to look. And this is coming from someone who sleeps on a sleep number bed. Yeah, the bed was that comfy. I don't know if the sheets, blankets, and pillows were of excellent quality or just well washed to reach that fantastic soft stage. They were great! Additional pillows, sheets, blankets available in the master closet.
The location of our condo & its building was so convenient. Very close to the back pool (and the exercise room and tennis courts), which is less crowded than the beach-front pool. NOTE: When arriving and/or leaving, the facility has these awesome double decker dollies/maintenance carts, which helps out A LOT, especially with groceries.
We did experience 1 and 1/2 days of rain, but there was plenty of room to spread out in the condo if you decided to stay in. Free wifi!!! The TV in the living room has many channels courtesy of a cable box. The TV in the master bedroom does not have a cable box, so it has fewer channels. We planned ahead and brought an HDMI cable to watch Netflix on the TV. NOTE: if it rains and you want to hit the outlet malls, GO EARLY OR LATE! This is what everyone else vacationing does during the rain, and it gets to be a madhouse with 30 -40 minutes of wait time just to get IN the parking lot, not including parking.
I took pics of the condo, but it is represented truly and accurately by the supplied pictures.
My only true complaint was the inconsiderate actions of the occupants above us. These people were so loud, they had to be stomping on the floor intentionally because we heard it, the people in 4203 AND 4206 (friends who were traveling with us) heard it from sun up to midnight or later every night. Were they exercising? Were they racing up and down the corridor with the utility carts? Were kids chasing each other? Was a family of elephants vacationing? I don't know. But it was horrible. Even the morning we were leaving, they were stomping at 5:00am! I loved this condo, but perhaps next time, I'll choose a top floor unit.
NOTE: You have to try Jordano's pizza! They deliver to your door. If there's not a menu in your kitchen drawer, look them up online. It is a bit expensive, but delicioso! Well worth the $$!

Bill would let Vt. deputies unionizeMarch 14,2013Bill would let Vt.
deputies unionize
MONTPELIER A Vermont House committee is looking at legislation that would allow deputy states attorneys, deputy sheriffs and support staff in their offices unionize.
The House General, Housing and Military Affairs Committee took testimony Wednesday on the measure, with the head of a statewide group of states attorneys and sheriffs urging it to proceed with caution.
Bram Kranichfeld, the associations executive director, said there were too many questions about the hybrid governance of Vermonts states attorneys and sheriffs offices.
Historically functions of county government, offices have been coming under increasing state control. But their employees are not part of the Vermont State Employees Association.
Supporters of the union effort say the employees have been shortchanged on pay, and need a voice in negotiating working conditions.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER New management plans for a vast section of Vermonts remote Northeast Kingdom an...

Now that I'm commuting to the city, I'm finding myself with seventy minutes more than I ever had before, time for some good reads. It's time to myself, with no interruptions and no one to worry about. I can literally keep my head down for an extended period of time. Since I live in a small town, there is always the chance of bumping into people on the way in that I have to spend time talking so I do my best to avoid talking types (and I'm quite sure they try to avoid me, as well). It's a quiet ride, and I'm doing my best to stay off my phone and Read More
Review: The Snow Geese, a Chekhovesque Production
The first time I saw Mary Louise Parker was in Craig Lucas' Prelude to a Kiss in 1987 on Broadway. She was a shining star as the lead role as Rita, cast opposite Timothy Hutton. I was a high school student studying drama and she became one of my theater heroines. Over the next 10+ years, I would see her flourish on stage in Hedda Gabler, How I Learned to Drive and Proof. She has so much to offer on stage. Funnily enough, when I saw her in 1987, I was starring in a Chekhov play as the family matriarch. Her current role in a Chekhovesque Read More
The Soupmaker's Kitchen by Aliza Green
When I make homemade soup, I'm a hero in my house. My family loves soup. Butternut squash, lentil, broccoli, cauliflower. Whatever I make, they love. Best of all, besides the mutual soup admiration club, I always feel good that I'm serving something healthy. Pureed vegetables with water or milk and very little else, what can be better than that? I also love the fact that a pot lasts several days and takes us through several meals. There is no downside (except the cleanup). According to a new book THE SOUPMAKER'S KITCHEN (Quarry Books, July 2013, Read More
Angel Heart Music Storybook

With a new story by best-selling children's fantasy writer Cornelia Funke, interspersed with lullabies and songs arranged for voices, Read More
I'm a Netflix Binge-Watcher
According to Wikipedia, binge-watching, also called binge-viewing, is the practice of watching television for longer time spans than usual, usually of a single television show. Binge-watching as an observed cultural phenomenon has become popular with the rise of online media services such as Netflix and Amazon Prime with which the viewer can watch television shows and movies on-demand. We've been Netflix members for about a year and recently joined the Apple TV universe and now I am an official binge viewer. First, let me say that I've Read More

An Irish Family Vacation Part 3
Our recent Irish Family Vacation was a one of a kind. For the first few days, we were tourists and for the second half of our trip, we stayed with friends which took the trip to a completely different level. If you haven't experienced a family trip that involves staying with another family who are close friends, I highly recommend it. Besides the fact that it's highly economical (you eat out less, for one thing, and you save money on accommodations), it's also a far more enjoyable experience with familiarity, comfort and companionship. It also presents Read More

New Solar Cell Doubles As a Touch Screen
A new finding from Singapore's Nanyang Technological University (NTU) demonstrates yet again how the flexibility and wide-ranging applicability of solar power provides it with advantages that are impossible to achieve with fossil forms of energy. NTU's breakthrough is a new solar cell material that could also be used to make the now-ubiquitous touch screens for electronic devices, information kiosks and many other display forms.
The integrated solar cell/touch screen concept parallels the emergence of building-integrated solar cells, as well as solar cells that can be incorporated into fabrics and other wearable or portable items.
In addition to the potential energy cost savings related to consumer products, NTU's new solar cell material could also provide businesses with a low-emission platform for colorful lighting displays, especially when combined with a storage system that enables night-time use.
'War on Coal' is Not the Real Reason Your Utility Rates Will Go Up
With new EPA regulations for coal-fired power plants looming ahead, the coal and utilities industries have issued sharp warnings about the impact of another "war on coal." The argument goes that the cost of installing pollution-scrubbing equipment, and/or shutting down outdated coal-fired power plants, is passed directly along to the consumer in the form of higher rates. The U.S. economy also feels the impact, so the argument goes, in terms of higher business costs, lost employment opportunities and a competitive advantage for coal-using companies overseas.
However, given the past record of accuracy for those warnings, it looks like a bad case of déjà vu all over again. According to a history of similar warnings about coal regulation compiled by the Center for American Progress (CAP), those predictions fail to account for the positive impact of innovation, as well as the economic counterbalance of improved public health.
Meanwhile, within the broader issue of U.S. infrastructure, CAP draws out an important point: In the coming years, the main driver of utility rates will not be the power plants or the fuel they use, it will be the urgent need to overhaul the nation's aging, badly outdated electricity distribution and transmission grid.
New "EPA" Report Trashes LEED Standards… No, Really!
When the EPA releases a research report claiming that LEED-certified buildings don't perform as well as their non-certified counterparts, that's bound to turn heads in at least some sectors of the blogosphere so consider this mission accomplished. Last Friday, a group called the Environmental Policy Alliance (EPA, what else?) released a bombshell report claiming that LEED (Leadership in Environmental Engineering and Design) certified buildings "actually use more energy than uncertified buildings." The report has been making waves around the tubes all week long.
That's all well and good if you're only interested in culling information from their press release. However, if you are interested in whether the Environmental Policy Alliance is an organization with a solid track record in research or if it's just another one of those PR efforts masquerading as a think tank, you can follow the links to their website and your answers are right there.
Illinois Clean Energy Report Shows the Power of Community Choice
The tubes have been buzzing over a new report announcing that 91 Illinois communities now get 100 percent of their electricity from renewable sources, but that's just the tip of a very large iceberg. According to the report, "Leading from the Middle," more than 500 other communities in the state have signed on to the same community choice program that the "clean 91″ have used, and several have already begun using it to improve their electricity footprint.
Within that larger group is Chicago, which is highlighted in the report. Though it still relies heavily on natural gas, Chicago has already used community choice to get from 40 percent coal down to zero in practically the blink of an eye.
As for how that is possible, let's take a remark by Chicago's chief sustainability officer, Karen Weigert, who sums it all up in "Leading from the Middle" with this comment: "[Electricity] is a market, and when you ask a market for something, they can provide it."
Tension Mounts as U.S. EPA Comes Out Swinging in Support of Bristol Bay
How's this for timing: Just a few weeks in advance of a special Triple Pundit series on sustainable fisheries, last Friday the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issued a strongly–and we mean strongly–worded announcement that it will use its authority under the Clean Water Act to to protect the sockeye salmon fishery in Bristol Bay, Alaska, which just happens to be the largest sockeye fishery in the entire world.
Triple Pundit took note of the EPA announcement earlier this week (here's that article), and it's worth revisiting the topic to make a point about the growing tension between renewable and non-renewable resources in an increasingly globalized economy.
Los Angeles Shuts the Door on Fracking's 'Red Queen'
Last week, Los Angeles joined the growing list of cities and towns banning, at least temporarily, gas and oil fracking within their borders. The main concerns are over public health and water resource preservation, but economic impacts and property values also come into play. The news comes on the heels of yet another article in the mainstream press that paints a picture of the fracking industry as a swelling bubble that will make a loud and messy noise when it pops.
Part of the reason why the fracking industry is so bloated right now is something that our friends over at Fuel Fix have dubbed the "Red Queen" effect, after the fictional Lewis Carroll character, so let's take a look at the Los Angeles decision in that context.
WegoWise Aims to Inspire Building Efficiency Improvments
Earlier this month, the building analytics company WegoWise launched a blog that provides the public with useful nuggets of data about building efficiency and water use, gleaned from the staggering amount of information it collects from scores of utility companies around the country, among other sources. The new blog, data.wegowise.com, focuses on concisely presented, interactive images that enable readers to get a visual grasp-at-a-glance of the essential elements before delving into the details.
As a means of helping to convince property owners that energy efficiency improvements are an investment, not a cost, the new blog is especially timely for New York City. New regulations embodied in Local Law 84 require owners of thousands of buildings in New York to start recording and publicizing their energy and water consumption, and WegoWise has launched a new service designed to help them comply.
Cost of Solar Power Still Falling, Falling, Falling
Barely three years ago, the Obama administration launched the SunShot Initiative, an ambitious effort to transform solar power from an exotic, expensive form of energy into a mainstream fuel that can compete on price with petroleum, coal, and natural gas. In the latest development for low-cost solar power, last week Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz announced that the program is already 60 percent of the way toward its goal of bringing the average price for a utility-scale solar power plant down to the target price of six cents per kilowatt-hour.
In raw numbers, that's a steep slide from an average of 21 cents in 2010 to only 11 cents by the end of 2013. That's now less than the average price of electricity in the U.S., which is about 12 cents per kWh, according to the Energy Information Administration.
The trend toward low-cost solar power is nowhere near at an end. The new announcement came with word of yet another SunShot initiative that will help bring the cost of solar power down even more in the coming years: A $25 million funding package for innovative technologies that focuses on manufacturing costs.
New Partnership Aims to Put a Hero In Every Teapot
If you've never heard the phrase "hero crop" before, you will soon. Relatively new to the lexicon, hero crop refers to sustainable crops that fulfill social benefit goals for the communities that grow them. That will include tea, if the global non-profit organization Forum for the Future has anything to say about it.
Forum for the Future has just launched a new initiative called "The Future of Tea – A Hero Crop for 2030″ with several of the seven companies responsible for 90 percent of the global tea market (yes, only seven). The group encompasses at least three brands familiar to U.S. tea drinkers: Lipton (parent company Unilever), Tetley (parent company Tata Global Beverages), and Twinings. A fourth company, Finlays, is a leading tea trader, manufacturer, and processor among other diverse activities including coffee, produce, flowers, rubber, and forestry products.
Some Banks Are Offering Coal Free-Credit Cards…and Some Are Not
The longtime sustainable business advocacy organization Green America (formerly Co-op America) has just come out with a new report card that could help consumers identify banks that they want to do credit card business with, based on their record of investing — or not investing — in coal-fired power plants and coal mining.
The coal-free credit cards report is timely, given the three-in-a-row coal related disasters that recently polluted the Elk River and Kanawah Creek in West Virginia, and the Dan River in North Carolina, which have drawn national attention to the risks and impacts of coal mining.
Unfortunately, those three episodes are just the tip of a very dirty iceberg.
New Carbon Trust Report Warns Business: Adapt or Die
Citing a potential 40 percent gap between water resources and water needs by 2030, the U.K. based organization Carbon Trust has issued a new report highlighting water risk issues for business with the attention-getting pitch "adapt or die." Though somewhat alarming, the turn of phrase is timely here in the U.S., where the West Virginia chemical spill in the Elk River and the North Carolina coal ash spill in the Dan River have dramatically illustrated the consequences of lax regulation and fossil fuel dependency.
The report is also timely for U.S. businesses because a new Ceres report on fracking and water risks has turned up the heat on water resource issues.
Rather than dwelling on risks, though, the Carbon Trust report is all about solutions and opportunities, as you can gather by the title "Opportunities in a resource constrained world: How business is rising to the challenge."
New Ceres Fracking Study Sounds Water Warning Signal
The green investment organization Ceres has just released a new report on oil and gas fracking in the U.S., and it adds to the red flags that have been popping up over the fracking industry for the last couple of years. The report, "Hydraulic Fracturing and Water Stress: Water Demand by the Numbers," underscores the urgency of addressing the risk that fossil fuel extraction poses to water resources – and to the investment community.
The report comes on the heels of the Ceres 2014 Investor Summit on Climate Risk in January. That event launched the organization's Clean Trillion Campaign, which aims to prod the investment community in a climate-ethical direction by exposing emerging risks and indicating the path to more financially sustainable strategies.
17 Leading Philanthropies Pledge Fossil Fuel Divestment
A group of 17 leading foundations has announced a new initiative to encourage fossil fuel divestment by the philanthropic community. Called Divest-Invest Philanthropy, the new effort launched Jan. 30 in support of a growing movement among other nonprofit endowments, including academic, health, pension and religious foundations.
Divest-Invest comes at a time when climate-related events are shining a spotlight on the future risks that fossil fuel investors face, as highlighted by the Jan. 15 Ceres Investor Summit on Climate Risk.
Also of interest to investors is the long-awaited State Department Keystone XL pipeline report, which was finally released on Jan. 30.
The report identified a number of risks and impacts, including several related to environmental justice issues. The next step in the review process promises to be even more interesting, as it includes a public comment period and input from the Environmental Protection Agency and at least seven other federal agencies – the Departments of Defense, Justice, Interior, Commerce, Transportation, Energy and Homeland Security.
US Algae Biofuel Company Wins French Beauty Award
The Marie Claire 2014 Prix d'Excellence de la Beauté award has gone to an algae oil company called Solazyme, making it one of only two U.S. brands to garner a prize against hundreds of entrants this year. The award indicates excellence in both innovation and performance. That's a pretty high mark for a company better known for algae biofuel, but Solazyme actually covers four markets with its unique algae oil extraction technology: fuels, chemicals, nutritionals and personal care.
Announced earlier this month, the award was given unanimously by a panel of judges for the company's Algenist® line of skin care products. That's great timing for Solazyme. The company has just announced the start of commercial algae oil operations at two integrated locations in Iowa, which together showcase the company's ability to hop nimbly from one market to another.
Big Payoff for US EPA Climate Protection Partnerships
The Environmental Protection Agency has just released its annual Climate Protection Partnerships report, and it indicates that the U.S. is in a strong position to achieve economic growth – in other words, job growth – as it transitions to safer, healthier and more sustainable forms of energy. The report comes on top of great news for job growth in the solar industry, with as-yet untapped offshore wind energy and vast reserves of geothermal energy offering potential for even greater growth in the green jobs sector.
That's something to keep in mind as the battle over the proposed Keystone XL pipeline gathers a new head of steam. Now that the State Department has delivered a required environmental report, it has to move forward and consult with other U.S. agencies to consider a variety of potential impacts the project could have on the public, and that includes economic impacts.

Landfilled waste could provide 12 percent of U.S. power needs, according to Columbia University report.
A new study conducted by the Earth Engineering Center (EEC) of Columbia University has found that if all of the municipal solid waste (MSW) that is currently put into landfills each year in the United States were diverted to waste-to-energy (WTE) power plants, they could generate enough electricity to power nearly 14 million homes annually, or 12 percent of the U.S. total. According to the study, this shift also could reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 123 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalents per year, an amount comparable to taking more than 23 million cars off our roads.
The new study, "2014 Energy and Economic Value of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), including and Non-recycled Plastics (NRP), Currently Landfilled in the Fifty States," found that the recovery of resources from waste diverted from landfill in the United States increased between 2008 and 2011. The recycling of materials from MSW improved by 18.5 million tons, and the tonnage of materials processed by WTE facilities grew by 3.8 million tons during this period.
Key statistics from the study are illustrated in a new infographic, pictured at the right, "The Power of Waste."
The study's authors noted that, while some individual states have invested in infrastructure to boost recycling and energy recovery from MSW – Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, and New Hampshire topped the list – overall, European countries have set a much higher bar. For example, the study calculated that if the United States were to deploy district heating systems similar to countries such as Denmark, Germany, Sweden and Norway, our current waste stream could provide heat for close to 10 million additional homes.
"Modern technologies that convert waste into energy present a good opportunity to significantly reduce our reliance on landfills, lower our carbon footprint, and provide renewable energy to businesses and communities," says Nickolas Themelis, director of the Earth Engineering Center at Columbia University. "Currently, many developed nations are further along in embracing and expanding their use of energy recovery technologies as a vital part of their sustainable resource management systems. This presents an important opportunity for city planners and policy makers in the United States."
Sponsored by the American Chemistry Council (ACC), Washington, D.C., the study is based on data obtained in Columbia University's 2014 Survey of Waste Management in the U.S., which looked at waste management statistics during 2011, and from MSW characterization studies in several states.
Engineers at the Earth Engineering Center also calculated the quantity of non-recycled plastics – a subset of MSW that remains after plastics that can be economically recycled have been extracted –available for energy conversion. This latest study expands on an earlier EEC study (published in 2011 and based on data from 2008) by including (in addition to plastics in MSW) plastics that are not counted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as MSW but that are disposed in landfill, such as construction demolition debris and auto shredder residue.
According to the study's authors, plastics represent 11 percent of the total U.S. waste stream. The total recovery rate for plastics, which includes both recycling and energy recovery, increased from 14.3 percent in 2008 to 16.6 percent in 2011. The recycling rate for plastics increased by 21 percent between 2008 and 2011 to reach nearly 2.7 million tons. The study also found that if all non-recycled plastics in the U.S. were converted to energy through facilities that use modern plastics-to-oil technologies, they could produce nearly 6 billion gallons of gasoline, enough to fuel nearly 9 million cars per year.
"Every day, plastics significantly enhance our ability to reduce, reuse, recycle and recover more of our resources," says Steve Russell, vice president of plastics for ACC. "These important findings show that, while we're making progress, we have a vital opportunity to recycle and recover more of these valuable materials."
