Integration of agriculture with land, water management and eco-system conser- vation is an essential part of the bio investment/ NRM strategy at Vedanta. At Vedanta community engagement is ensured in all the programmes, building and facilitating local institutions at village level to collectively address challenges, op- Vedanta's NRM Focus Areas portunities and management of shared resources. We conduct baseline and feasibility studies prior to implementation of the pro- gramme followed by ongoing monitoring, evaluation and impact assessments. The community is supported with scientific and technical knowhow along with backward and forward linkages coupled with capacity building as an ongoing exercise. Partnerships and technical tie ups with NGO's, academic institutions and the Government has helped us broaden, replicate and sustain impact of the program and effectively maximize the use of resources and to co create viable livelihood opportunities with the community on a sustainable basis. Small Efforts Making A Meaningful Difference Integrating Growth, HZL Hindustan Zinc Limited (HZL) in partnership with the Government of Rajasthan (GOR) initiated the "Integrated Agriculture and Livestock Management Programme" based on the 4P (Public- Private- People Partnership) approach. HZL facilitated the Government to expand their outreach in the NRM sphere with inclusion of different Government schemes like "Krishi Gyan Avum Aadan Shivir, Kharif Abhiyan-2010", Harit Rajasthan in the programme. The other line departments like Animal Husbandry, Horticulture, Cooperatives, Rajasthan Seed Nigam, Agriculture Marketing were also tied up to maximize the benefits to farmers through different schemes. Through this collaboration agriculture related information and services were provided at the agricultural camps held at the Panchayat level in presence of the concerned Government officials. The reach so far: 200 farmers provided with high yielding seeds of mustard and vegetable, 27 progressive farmers helped procure micro irrigation system and other agricultural tools at a subsidized rate, 2,980 farmers covered under farmers' training, veterinary camps, cattle vaccination and artificial insemination programs. Around 12,699 cattle also ben- efitted through these initiatives. 26 progressive farmers were supported for developing mini-orchard and provided with fruit saplings and technical know-how. The agriculture yield has increased by 30 % and the mortality and morbidity rate of cattle reduced to 17%, with significant improvement in cattle health. Artificial insemination and feed support has led to breed improvement and increased milk productivity, thereby increasing the farmers' income two-fold from ` 2,500 to ` 6,000. Farmer's Training Program Mini orchard Development Program 2 Yagna July-Nov 2010 People's Project, SESA GOA SESA GOA's "Alternative Livelihood Opportunities Project (ALOP)" is a unique example of a Community Based Water Shed Project. The objective of the project was to conserve soil and water in the farmers' fields by developing watershed structures and improve vegetation in the region. 4 Village Development Committees (VDC) were formed for community participation and management. The Committee members helped select beneficiaries for each project activity and played an active role in resolving conflicts if any during implementation. They also mutually decided on the beneficiary cash contribution for each activity and became the nodal agency for collecting the same. Due to the sustained efforts of both the VDC and SESA GOA 1,160 acres of land have been brought under watershed, benefiting 349 house- holds directly. The total project cost was `35 lakh, with the community contributing `82,500. Planned for over 4 years, the project plans to bring another 2,000 acres of land under watershed development in the subsequent years in conjunction with the community. Under the project 60 vermicomposting units have also been formed to promote organic cultivation benefiting 300 households. In another 100 acres of land bunds have been strengthened with grass seeds and planting grass slips. Till date 20,313 saplings have been planted and 8 farm ponds dug with active participation of the community. Water Shed Project Digging Of Farm Pond Growing With Trees, KCM KCM in collaboration with the Government Forestry Department introduced a Tree Planting Project in 41 government and 5 community schools, 3 orphanages, golf clubs, as well as community groups in Chingola and Chililabombwe. One of the project activities was training beneficiaries on plant management. Over 29,000 trees have been planted in the project area over the last three years. Fish restocking exercises involving over 20,000 fingerlings and animal restocking involving provision of 300 goats for 500 families has ensured increased nutritional options among the beneficiaries. In the implementation process, the company tied up with various Government Departments, pupils, Resident Development Committees and Self Help Groups (SHGs). The implementation of the project required very minimal financial resources and the benefits accrued by the community from the project are enormous ranging from environmental awareness among school children and the community, environmental stability, promotion of afforestation in the community as well as promotion of nutritional options for the orphanages. Plantation Project Shimulala Plantation In Mushishima, Chingola 3 Yagna July-Nov 2010 Food For Life, VAL Jharsuguda "Earlier when we were not a part of any formal institution, it was very difficult for us to get Government officials to visit our fields and advice us. Today we are organized and have access to multiple resources", says Abhina Kanta a farmer from Dudukabahal village. Project Annadatta running in the Liakera Block of Jharsuguda district covers 400 framers. The project has focused on promotion of Systems of Rice Intensification (SRI) in 300 acres of land and formation of 20 farmer's club comprising of 400 farmers in 20 villages. The SRI method of paddy cultivation helps double the yield of rice production. SRI expert and President of Shruti (Partner NGO), Sanjeeb Purohit says "During project implementation it was found that SRI paddy cultiva- tion required only 2 kg of seed per acre, as compared to general paddy cultivation which required 20 kg seeds per acre. It was also observed that SRI needed fewer plants per unit area (25x25cm) and encouraged rice plants to grow healthy with large root volume, profuse and strong tillers, big panicle; more and well filled spikelet's and higher grain weight". The farmer's clubs were provided with 100 markers, 60 weeder machines and 20 sprinkler sets. In order to reduce the dependency on mon- soons 3 hp motor pump sets were also given to each farmer club. Each of the farmer's group has their own set of by-laws governing them. Encouraged by the results, Abhina says, "Last year by practicing conventional method my productivity was 11 quintals of rice in 1 acre, this year by adopting SRI I have harvested 20 quintals of paddy in the same one acre." SRI, Technology at Work The Annadatta Project's Farmer Group Refreshing Change, VAL Lanjigarh "The project has achieved the desired objectives. VAL, Lanjigarh along with Natural Organic Farm,(Partner NGO) has been instrumental in raising organic cotton in 219 acres of land with 92 farmers in 8 villages of Lanjigarh Block and has also been instrumental in insuring 178.96 acres land of 78 farmers." says Gurdeep Chabra, Director, Natural Organic Farm Kesinga. Land Before Organic Cultivation Organic Cotton Cultivation Under Project Jaibik organic cotton cultivation was initiated as a sustainable livelihood initiative to facilitate farmers to grow cotton or- ganically which entails using cultural practices, bio fertilizers and biological controls rather than inorganic fertilizers and pesticides. Earlier the farmers were involved in cotton cultivation; but yield was low and no market was assured for them. It was not economical for the farmers. VAL played a critical role to enhance the existing skill as well as plan for and create appropriate backward and forward linkages. The farmers were also trained for development of organic manure thereby resulting in sustained as well as enhanced soil productivity. The crops have been insured with Agriculture Insurance Company, Bhubaneswar. Earlier the crops were prone to pests with the farmers at times loosing the whole season and suffering losses, along with approximate earnings of ` 4,000 per acre of land or even less. This intervention has led to zero pest attack and the expected income from the project is over ` 10,000 per acre of land coupled with an assured market, once harvested at the end of December 2010. 4 Yagna July-Nov 2010 Water Conservation & Enhanced Agricultural Productivity, BALCO The watershed project named Neerdhara is a joint venture between BALCO and NABARD. This project has had remarkable success in the region for augmenting productivity of land using various vegetative and civil tools. The project has 4 villages, namely Parsakhola, Bhat- gaon, Saraipali and Rukbahari in its scope covering 2,162 people. Under land treatment, digging of 22,094 meters continuous contour trench, land leveling, construction of 2,506 meters water absorbent tank, field bunding were the major tools adopted to improve productivity of land. Under vegetative measures, 10,380 saplings have been planted. Project Neerdhara A People's Project With greater labour opportunities becoming locally available migration have been curbed, 20 acres fallow land has been reclaimed and villagers have started cultivating crop on it. Farmers are now more aware about the modern techniques of farming through Farmer Clubs constituted in the village. The nurturing and development of the Village Watershed Committee as the main field implementation agency of watershed in Parsakhola, achieved the objective of the village community owning the process and its failures and successes. The groundwater level has increased by 2.025 meters making water available for drinking and irrigation throughout the year, with villagers now taking double crops are some of the other notable achievements of this project. Green Partnership, VAL Jharsuguda "Earlier the field adjacent to our school was barren, today when we see healthy green saplings coming up near our school we feel over- joyed" says Dharitri Dhrua a student studying at the R K High School, H. Katapali. This is the story of joint efforts of the District Administra- tion and Vedanta Aluminium Limited to create a Green Zone in and around Jharsuguda. The District Administration approved 370 acres of land, of which 82.39 acres was provided to Vedanta Aluminium Limited for plantation pur- pose. Two expert agencies namely AASTHA and Indira Women Organization for Voluntary Action (IWOVA) were entrusted with the respon- Plantation Drive at Green Jharsuguda sibility to raise plantation at a cost of `20.58 lakh for three years. Till date 42,000 saplings such as Neem, Karanaj, Chatiyan and Gulmohar have been planted in and around Jharsuguda. Ms. Rashmita Tete Secretary, IWOVA says "The effort is good because it sends across a very strong message of planting more and more trees to students and the community; we hope the good work continues". 5 Yagna July-Nov 2010 Restoring Water and Life, SIIL Today Nicholas is a happy man. He has not only revived his banana plantation but has also ensured that sufficient water is available for his other crops. But the situation was not always the same, few months back his banana cultivation in five acres of land was hampered, as the water channel; the source of water to his cultivation was clogged with water plants proving detrimental to the flow of water. This water canal runs nearly 52 km and is a valuable source of water to 24,000 farmer's on its way. Nicholas, a local resident of Athimarapatti with his fellow farmers brought the situation to the Farmers Association. The Farmers Associa- tion approached SIIL for assistance. SIIL undertook the channel cleaning activity with active support from the Association. This activity has not only improved vegetation but also thereby enhanced the economic status of the farmers. Water Channel Clogged With Plants Channel Cleaning In Progress Resurrecting Lives in Kothiya Village, HZL "Ye kaam se hamre pani ki samashya puri tarah solve hogayi hai jiske liye hum gramwasi HZL k aabhari hai jisne is kaam ko janta k sahyog se karwaya.", says Mr.Naresh Sharma, Panchayat Samiti member, Kothiya (By this work our water crisis has been completely solved and we are grateful to HZL who along with the support from the community made this work possible). Kothiya village is situated 6 km away from Rampura Agucha Mines with a population of more than 10,000 people. This village has received scattered rainfall for the last few years; resulting in scarcity of water especially during the summers, with the wells drying up. The only source of ground water recharge was rain water. If the village received adequate rainfall, then the rain water flowed to the nearby anicut from which 10 neighbouring wells got recharged. The water of these wells was then used by the farmers for irrigation purpose. In the 375 hectare of grazing land 3 km away from the village, large amount of water would get accumulated during the rainy season. The HZL team found potential in utilizing this water for irrigation and recharging wells by construction of a canal. The idea was shared with the community and Panchayat Raj Institution's (PRIs). The villagers agreed to construct a canal to use the water for irrigation. The project was undertaken on a partnership basis where HZL contributed `1 lakh and villagers contributed `50, 000 and provided 3 JCB (Machine used for digging soil). The villages also provided labour for constructing the canal. Today, villagers use this water for irrigation. The ponds are also getting some water and almost all the wells of the village are recharged with a permanent water crisis management solution in place. Bharat Vikhas Parisad (Social group) recognizing these efforts of HZL presented them with a letter of appreciation. Work in Progress at the Canal Perennial Source of Water from the Grazing Land to the Pond 6 Yagna July-Nov 2010 Green Speak: Hindustan Zinc Ke dwara chalaye ja rahe krishi evam pashupalan karyakaram se kisano ko bahut labh ho raha hai. Wadi evam Nasal Sudhar karyakram se hum kisan aage aane wale samay mein bahut labhanwit honge." (The agriculture & animal husbandry program run by HZL is benefitting our farmers a lot. Wadi & the breed improvement program would benefit us in times to come.) Ganpat Singh Chouhan , A Farmer, Kotri Village "BALCO is doing commendable job through Watershed project. This project is not only saving the surrounding vegetation but also making the path for village development by enhancing the locally available natural resources." R.K.Godekar, Govt Agencies: Agriculture Department, Deputy Director "We are most grateful to KCM for introducing such an important exercise where the children are now able to learn the importance of planting trees." Samson Phiri Chililabombwe Basic School Head Teacher Feedback Yagna: Thank you for bringing out a powerful edition of Yagna. D D Jalan, CFO, Vedanta Resources plc. Yagna issue is excellent in the way that the facts are nicely presented. It shows the clear and unequivocal commitment to community development by all locations of Vedanta. Venkat Kanada, VP-Finance, VAL Jharsuguda One immediate thought I get by going through this article is why we can't bring best CSR practices implemented in other group companies. For e.g if the climatic conditions favour in other places, we can grow strawberry in other units as we grow in Lanjigarh. This straw berry cultivation yields good returns to people. In the similar way, herbal hair oil is a good initiative of SIIL. It can be emulated in Lanjigarh and other places also. Here at Lanjigarh all type of herbs grows in plenty. To implement it fast, we need to invite that SHG team as guests to Lanjigarh and conduct the training program for our SHG here and take it forward. V. Venkateswara Rao, AGM – Commercial CSR team is doing a very good job, for the spirit and growth of the people in India , these enterprises help to get an income that will send the children to school, that is the future. If we can imagine rainbows in the middle of the darkest storm, we will definitely have a better tomorrow. Keep up the good work!

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Choosing my religion: Jets or Passover seder
Will Winnipeg make it to the promised land?
If you scour all 40 chapters of the book of Exodus, you won't find a single passage pertaining to icing the puck, going offside or causing a delay of game.
Yet for Jews living in Winnipeg, the story of Moses leading Israelites out of bondage in ancient Egypt has become synonymous with the struggle of the NHL Jets, another group of long-suffering long shots striving to reach a promised land.
Tonight is the second night of Passover, when Jews living outside of Israel will hold the second of two seders, ritual meals that involve a lot of storytelling, a fair amount of singing and a tremendous amount of food.
Tonight also marks an NHL Southeast Division matchup in Raleigh, N.C., between the first-place Winnipeg Jets and the second-place Carolina Hurricanes.
The seder traditionally begins just before sundown. The NHL game starts at 6 p.m., Winnipeg time. And although it might sound crass, the simultaneous occurrence of the big game and the big holiday will create conflict in many Jewish households.
To most Jews, even those of a secular ilk, the Passover seder is the most important family gathering of the year. A seder can go on for hours, fuelled by the length of time it takes to retell the Exodus story, scarf down gefilte fish and kugel and guzzle a minimum of four glasses of wine.
Yes, guests at the seder table are supposed to get at least mildly intoxicated, if they're following the rules. How this has not made Passover the most popular holiday among all Canadians is unclear.
But all that alcohol and all that food tends to put seder participants in a relaxed and festive mood -- until, of course, the question of whether to watch the hockey game rears its ugly head.
Given the way the lunar Hebrew calendar tends to line up with the solar Gregorian calendar, Passover usually takes place in mid-April. In the 1980s, that meant one if not both seders coincided with the NHL playoffs, which invariably pitted a pretty good Jets squad led by Dale Hawerchuk against an even better Edmonton Oilers lineup featuring Wayne Gretzky, Mark Messier and Jari Kurri.
Assuming you've never been to a Passover seder, the ritual meal is broken up into two parts. There are two cups of wine, a lot of storytelling and some songs before dinner, then two more cups of wine, a bit more storytelling and way more songs afterward.
In the 1980s, when there was no such thing as a PVR, the pressure in many a Winnipeg Jewish household would be to finish the seder meal before the puck drops or, if not, by the end of the first period. And once the game was on, good luck getting many a semi-inebriated adult back to the table to finish the seder proceedings.
Sure, 3,300 years of tradition are important. But hockey is a religion of another sort in Winnipeg, both back in the days of Hawerchuk and also during the era of the new Jets.
According to Exodus, the ancient Israelites wandered around the Sinai desert for 40 years. Winnipeg hockey fans spent 15 years in a desert of their own, waiting to once again live in an NHL city.
The Israelites were led out of Egypt by Moses, who parted the Red Sea and received 10 commandments from a higher power. Winnipeg hockey fans have Mark Chipman, who calmed the waters of the NHL board of governors and received a blessing from an even more powerful deity, Gary Bettman.
Moses never got to see the promised land, punished as he was for killing a man during his youth. Ondrej Pavelec has yet to see the NHL playoffs, possibly by offending the hockey gods in some manner.
Beating Carolina tonight would go a long way in propelling the Jets toward the playoffs this year. But any Winnipegger who sneaks away from the seder table to watch that game will incur the wrath of their family members.
On one hand, such a move could be considered offensive. But it can not quite be considered sacrilege in Winnipeg, where conflict between Passover and the NHL is part of the modern Jewish ethnocultural tradition.

During the week leading up to Super Bowl XLVII, the entire city of New Orleans will be jumping with parties, celebrations and star-studded events, but one location will stand above the rest: the Bud Light Hotel.
Bud Light, the official beer sponsor of the NFL, will transform a 200-room downtown New Orleans hotel (701 Convention Center Blvd.) into the home of the hottest events during Super Bowl week. The capstone of the four-day event will take place Saturday night with a music first when the legendary Stevie Wonder will headline a lineup featuring Gary Clark Jr. The performance comes one night before Wonder's iconic song, "Superstition," appears in two sixty-second Bud Light ads during Super Bowl XLVII after appearing in multiple Bud Light commercials throughout the 2012 NFL season. On Sunday, Bud Light will host an afternoon concert featuring two of the hottest acts in country music, Eli Young Band and Lee Brice, ahead of the game.
The events lineup for the week includes:
- Thursday, Jan. 31 - EA SPORTS Madden Bowl XIX Party w/ Lil Wayne (doors open at 7 p.m.)
- Friday, Feb. 1 -Rolling Stone LIVE featuring Pitbull and Flo Rida (doors open at 9:15 p.m.)
- Saturday, Feb. 2 - Stevie Wonder concert featuring Gary Clark Jr. (doors open at 8 p.m.)
- Sunday, Feb. 3 - Concert featuring the Eli Young Band and Lee Brice (doors open at 1 p.m.)
All events are invite only. Tickets for the Saturday and Sunday concerts are available throughout the New Orleans metropolitan area. For those not heading to the Big Easy for the Super Bowl, Myspace - the Bud Light Hotel live broadcast partner - will be streaming select performances from the Friday and Saturday night concerts at www.Myspace.com/BudLight. For additional information, visit www.BudLightHotel.com.

A montage showing of StarCraft II's first year on how successful it has become. StarCraft: Brood War is highly known for being a very successful game in South Korea, some people might even say that it was South Korea's national sport. But it was as popular in rest of the world. But this video shows how big StarCraft II has become not just as a game, but as an eSport around the world. This is just the first year, and many more great years to come! I don't take credit for making this video. This video was made by a person known as LaxxSC, all credit goes to him/her and not me.

Check out the Drake web site sizing charts so you order the correct size. Even though they are adjustable I was swimming in a XXL which I can normally get away with using a belt. Had to go down to an XL and a belt.

Rain here too, but I bucked the trend and ran 14 miles in it. I was trying out a new route and I won't be trying it again before summer or some sort of drought. Ankle deep puddles and slippery mud were the order of the day.
CD, surely that's a perfectly even split though, so on paper at least it looks perfect!
Er, very restrained spending there Lorenzo. I dread to think what would have happened if you'd gone on a spending spree!
14 muddy miles for me this morning trying out a new route. I'll be saving that one for summer methinks.
Was anyone else at the Masters International today? I ran the open race and made a complete pig's ear of it. Nice day though and some good races through the day.
Blimey, your daughter clearly needs no sleep! I was also running with fogeys today at the Masters International just down the road at Wollaton Park. I entered the open race. Had a shocker. Set off as if I were fit. I'm not. I died a death.
Some of us were at work doing, you know, actual work. And then doing training. I know how Marigold did, but what about Marders?
Wow, that's a shedload of posts for one day! Congrats to all the weekend racers. I already congratulated Jools elsewhere, but Dachs needs a special mention for that 10k. Holy Smoke! and only 138th????
Yes, that was one of the last things that happened before I jetted of to warmer climes. It's still fab though. Jools, you deserve some time off!
I've been racing myself fit (ish). Highlights were getting round the National XC only 8 seconds slower than last year and finishing 4th lady in the 18km Guadiana road race behind two Portuguese olympians and Clare Elms. It was only a smidge faster than marathon pace though. Next year I'll take them down
MsE - I always do the Ashby 20 5 weeks out from London as 10 slow and 10 @ MP. This only backfired when I did it in awful weather and caught my death of cold that turned into a chest infection and ruled me out of London 2013.
Touch wood the injury seems to have gone away, so now I'm just plugging away at getting fit. Basically racing myself fit! In the last 2 weeks I have raced the National XC relays, a local league XC, a 5km trail race, a mile on the track, a 10k trail race and an 11.2 mile road race (the last 4 being while I was in Portugal at the Algarve Running Challenge). I'm feeling a bit fitter but there's a way to go yet!
Parkrun this morning as part of a hilly 12.86 mile run. Tomorrow will be a hangover day so had to get it done!
What's this about an impromptu 26.2 Poacher?
Hello again. I've been away on my hols then busy trying to catch up with my life and laundry (not quite there yet). I hope to have time to read and contribute again now. Have I missed anything of vital importance? Monster PBs? A hell of a lot can happen on here in 2 weeks!
Pokes head back in....
Back from hols and hoping to have time to keep up with the thread again! Have I missed anything major?

I am looking to expanding our team so that things can move along a bit more smoothly on our projects. I am looking for programmers, musicians, and a sound effects person. For details, read this post on the Unity forums. I will still be keeping the team small, and I'll only add people if they're a good match. If you contacted me about doing music a long time ago, please do so again.
Edit: All positions have been filled. Thanks everyone!

Early on, you should decide on a game unit that is simple and intuitive.
I implemented sprite flipping in the level editor and game engine. The image above shows flipping on hill. Those are both the same sprite. I also built the first level of Super Mario Bros. There is a toad there because the story takes place after Mario beats Bowser, so he has freed the toads. Speaking of that… does […]
Switched to using one collider per tile to make it quicker to build levels. The sides that are in red are ignored so they still behave properly. For comparison, this is how colliders looked before. They are bigger, so they're more efficient, but it takes longer to make them. I'll probably eventually have something […]

Sandy Maisel's Recent Discussions
Is Susan Rice right to step aside?
It shows how badly out of whack the Senate confirmation process is.
I am not at all convinced that Ambassador Rice would have been the best choice. But I know that the choice should have been the president's, with the Senate giving advice and consent based on appropriate criteria, not the witch hunt to which Rice has been subjected.See more
Fox News wise to sideline Rove?
Was Fox right in its decision about Rove? I have been watching politics for 50 years; I have never seen or heard of a worse performance that Rove gave on election night, losing all pretense of objectivity and hoping for a result that was not happening. He had to go.
Will Fox appeal to a broader audience? They have always had that potential, but Roger Ailes (witness his attempt to convince General Petraeus to run for president) seems confused about what role he wants the network to play. We all have our biases to be sure, but when the biases drive the coverage, a network will not attract a broad audience. Fox has not yet shown that it is a real news organization and not an arm of conservative and Republican activists.See more
A looming tea party backlash?
I am not sure that the tea party is a one-hit wonder.
Ask Sen. Dick Lugar and other moderate Republicans who lost primaries. But I do think Grover Norquist's time has come and gone. There will be a tax increase for the highest earners - and Republicans will support it. As Speaker Boehner needs to be reminded, but other Republicans have clearly recognized, elections have consequences.
Neither side, however, seems to recognize that the public wants them to stop posturing and to get on with their work. Maybe we should follow the practice of the College of Cardinals - lock them in a room and not let them out until they find a solution and signal us all with white smoke!
A Romney-Obama friendship?
I frankly doubt it is likely the two men will form a friendship, but they do have a bond formed by a mutual experience - as was demonstrated in The President's Club. There is a common experience that candidate's for our nation's highest office hold that no one else can quite understand.
I also think it is significant that Obama has reached out to Romney at the time when Republicans and even GQ are piling on Romney. How ridiculous they all seem? He lost - and people can rightly criticize his campaign - but on the afternoon of Election Day these same people were praising him and thought he could well be the next president. Not many people come that close in the public's and even in the GOP political elite's eyes.
The question of whether Romney can be helpful to Obama is a complex one. One would hope he could reach out to some Republicans and play a role in negotiating a budget deal, emphasizing the seriousness of playing politics with a fiscal crisis. But Romney is most influential with the business community, whose members well understand the situation and the president's position.
Romney is least influential with the GOP ideologues in the House who do not seem to understand that elections have consequences and, by any measure, they lost - in large part because they were on the wrong side of precisely the issue they are attempting to reargue now. It would be terrific if Romney, in his meeting with Ryan for instance, could convince them of the need to reach a deal, recognizing the president's advantage right now. But I doubt that will happen.
Should the GOP break their anti-tax pledge?
Sens. Chambliss and Graham seem to understand the results of the election and the needs of the American people.
Norquist is fighting a losing and soon to be lonely battle. Those who share his narrow view of acceptable ways to step back from the fiscal cliff will find themselves isolated and deemed irrelevant by the vast majority of Americans.See more

|Animal Stewardship
However (!) ... those same chemical ingredients may also need to be registered under REACH. This has created some uncertainty about whether testing on animals can take place in order to comply with REACH, or whether it should not, in order to comply with the Cosmetics Regulation.
The European Commission, in cooperation with ECHA, has now clarified the REACH information requirements as follows:
- Registrants of substances that are exclusively used in cosmetics may not perform animal testing to meet the information requirements of the REACH human health endpoints, with the exception of tests that are done to assess the risks to workers exposed to the substance
- Workers in this context, refers to those involved in the production or handling of chemicals on an industrial site, not professional users using cosmetic products as part of their business (e.g. hairdressers)
- Registrants of substances that are used for a number of purposes, and not solely in cosmetics, are permitted to perform animal testing, as a last resort, for all human health endpoints
- Registrants are permitted to perform animal testing, as a last resort, for all environmental endpoints
- Therefore, the testing and marketing bans in the Cosmetics Regulation do not apply to testing required for environmental endpoints, exposure of workers and non-cosmetic uses of substances under REACH
- Registrants of substances registered exclusively for cosmetic use will still have to provide the required information under REACH wherever possible, by using alternatives to animal testing (such as computer modelling, read-across, weight of evidence etc.)
