Use of radioactive materials in coal seam drilling must be disclosed to public
Anti-CSG groups says use of radioactive materials should be disclosed, The Age November 24, 2014 Peter Hannam Environment Editor, The Sydney Morning Herald Radioactive material is being used at some coal seam gas drilling sites in NSW and Queensland, raising concerns about potential health and environmental impacts.
A radiation management licence issued to US-based drilling company Halliburton shows it is permitted to use caesium-137, a radioactive isotope, for drilling by AGL at Gloucester, in the northern Hunter Valley and for Santos in the Pilliga forests near Narrabri.
Drillers deploy devices containing CS-137 to measure the composition of gas and water deep underground, with the isotope emitting gamma rays to operate like a miniature X-ray. Produced in nuclear reactors, the material is potentially deadly and among the main radiation concerns at failed power stations at Chernobyl and Fukushima…………
Environmental groups say the use of the radioactive material is not disclosed in the CSG projects' Review of Environment Factors (REF) and Environmental Impact Statements, nor does it appear by name in Materials Safety Data Sheets.
An anti-coal seam gas campaigner at Gloucester, Jennifer Schoelpple, said AGL had played up the use of much more benign chemicals used for hydraulic fracturing – fracking – but had downplayed the role of caesium.
"No matter how thoroughly you search 'under your kitchen sink' or how scrupulously you check the ingredients of your condiments and 'household products', you are highly unlikely to lay your hands on any CS-137 in your family home," Ms Schoelpple said.
"If they are so transparent, why don't they document the most dangerous thing they use?"
Vicki Perrin, from Lock the Gate in Queensland, said farmers allowing CSG drilling on their land and the neighbouring communities should be made aware of the risks: "Farmers need to know there is a radioactive source on their site."………http://www.theage.com.au/environment/anticsg-groups-says-use-of-radioactive-materials-should-be-disclosed-20141123-11s5vp.html
Warren Mundine not trusted by Aboriginal Land Council
Aboriginal land council shuns Mundine over Wallarah 2 negotiations, Australian Mining10 November, 2014 Ben Hageman Warren Mundine has proven a poor choice to negotiate with local aboriginal groups, who have voiced their distrust in him for dealing with the Wallarah 2 coal mine.
After compensation negotiations with the Darkinjung Aboriginal Land Council broke down this year, Korean government-owned miner Kores hired the chair of the Indigenous Advisory Council to represent the company, SMH reported.
A spokesman for Kores said Mundine had been engaged by the company "to facilitate the resumption of discussions between Darkinjung ALC and Wallarah 2 on a land access agreement."
However, land council CEO Sean Gordon said the ALC did not want to negotiate through Mundine. "From our end there is distrust in his position as chair of the Indigenous Advisory Council and his general support for the mining industry," Gordon said……..http://www.miningaustralia.com.au/news/aboriginal-land-council-shuns-mundine-over-wallara
New South Wales govt backs community renewable energy projects
NSW Government throws its support behind renewable energy projects for regions like the Mid North Coast ABC News 10 Nov 2014, State government grants totalling $700,000 are now available for new renewable energy projects in areas like the Mid North Coast.
Community-based renewable projects can apply for grants of up to $70,000, to help with set-up costs.
So that may mean providing financial help with feasibility studies, to engage with the community about the project and do some planning
Parliamentary Secretary for Renewable Energy and Port Macquarie MP Leslie Williams, said the projects will not be industrial-scale in size, and will be entirely owned by community members…….http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-11-11/nsw-government-throws-its-support-behind-renewable-energy-proje/5881366
For the moment, Aboriginal Land Rights in New South Wales are safe
The NSW Aboriginal Land Council said the Baird Government had withdrawn its controversial Crown Lands Amendment Bill.
"Moving forward we're happy to talk to the Government, but this Bill was divisive and discriminatory and undermined Land Rights" NSW Aboriginal Land Council Chairman Craig Cromelin said.
"We call on the Government to respectfully deal with Land Rights and start from scratch by genuinely consulting with Aboriginal people before any changes are made to the way Crown Lands in NSW are managed."………
Cromelin said a community rally held to fight the Bill had helped lead to its withdrawal.
"It means a lot to us to see such a great turnout from mob at such short notice, especially as many people travelled great distances, as well as those who sent letters, emails and tweets to protest against the Bill" he said.
"The rally shows the power of mob uniting for Our Land Council, Our Mob and Our Future." http://www.probonoaustralia.com.au/news/2014/11/aboriginal-land-rights-safe-now#sthash.0IfywKIB.dpuf
Aboriginal people really cannot trust the New South Wales Baird Government
The government's hurried assault on Aboriginal land rights – albeit followed by a hasty retreat – is a deeply unfortunate development, and has badly damaged any trust Aboriginal people can have in the Baird government in treating matters of Aboriginal rights with honesty and integrity.
Aboriginal people must not negotiate with politicians who assault their land rights, Sol Bellear The Guardian 5 Nov 14 The NSW government's hurried assault on land rights – followed by a hasty retreat – is deeply unfortunate and has damaged any trust Aboriginal people can have in the Baird government The NSW government's decision earlier this week to abandon legislation aimed at another wave of dispossession of Aboriginal people is welcome. However, the fact that we even got to this point is a matter of grave concern to Aboriginal people across NSW, and the country.
In October, minister for western NSW Kevin Humphries announced his intention to introduce legislation to parliament which extinguished land claims under the NSW Aboriginal Land Rights Act on beaches and coastal reserves. It would have affected have affected more than 600 current Aboriginal land claims around NSW. This is the legilsation which was withdrew on Monday. Continue reading
Price fixing allegation involving indigenous "blow-ins" and mining companies
ACCC investigates claims of Aboriginal and mining 'cartels' October 24, 2014 SMH, Nicole Hasham
State Politics reporter Mining companies and Aboriginal groups allegedly engaged in "cartel conduct", including price fixing for work involving ancient indigenous heritage sites, according to claims investigated by the competition watchdog……..Critics say Aboriginal cultural knowledge has been "commodified" and important artefacts and sites are being destroyed to make way for mining developments……..
Mining companies can pay groups known as "registered Aboriginal parties" to conduct field surveys and manage or salvage artefacts affected by mining development.
The ACCC investigated claims involving Rio Tinto Coal, Ashton Coal and NuCoal Resources,………
Aboriginal cultural heritage expert Maria Cotter claimed that decision-making on important sites was "being driven by dollar reimbursement and not by informed Aboriginal people making decisions about their heritage".
"Aboriginality has been commodified in the process so that [people] are being bought to be Aboriginal, whether they have clear connections and understanding of the heritage of a particular place or not," Dr Cotter said.
Scott Franks, who works with Ms Cotter and is a registered native title claimant for about 10,000 square kilometres of the Hunter Valley, claimed indigenous "blow-ins" from outside the area were engaged by mining companies, regardless of their knowledge or qualifications. Another local indigenous source close to the assessment process supported the claim……..http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/accc-investigates-claims-of-aboriginal-and-mining-cartels-20141026-119gab.html
Dubbo residents meet to oppose uranium mining
Residents gather to oppose threat of uranium mining The Daily Liberal By MARK RAYNER Oct. 25, 2014 A strong crowd has turned out to voice their opposition to the Alkane Zirconia Mine, arguing the minerals it will extract pose a risk to the Dubbo community. About 70 people attended the meeting, entitled Alkane Rare Earth Mine: Radioactive Risk?, which was run by Uranium Free NSW.
They heard from the Central West Environmental Council's Bev Smiles and Dr Gavin Mudd, who gave their opinions on rare earth and uranium mining. They are lobbying for a rejection of the Alkane proposal by the Planning and Assessment Commission on the basis uranium and thorium will be extracted. A decision is expected in November.
David Mould from Uranium Free Dubbo questioned the value of the project to the whole city.
"So far Alkane's plans have not taken the health of Dubbo residents into account building a radioactive project without adequate consideration of engineering risks upstream of Dubbo's drinking water supply." Mr Mould said.
"Five out of 11 councillors stand to make money out of this project and the expansion of mining in Dubbo. How can Dubbo and Central West residents feel secure that their government cares for people over profit?"
Ms Smiles said with one of the largest deposits of uranium in NSW thought to exist in Toongi, the decision by the current state government to overturn a moratorium on uranium mining could be a negative thing for the region.
"The people of the Central West are concerned that this area has been targeted by the NSW government to open up uranium mining in NSW," she said……..
The Planning Assessment Commission review for the Alkane Zirconia Project is November 4. Written submissions and applications to speak at the review close 1pm Wednesday October 29. Email email@example.com or phone (02) 9383 2112.
Uranium exploration a concern for New South Wales graziers
Graziers on alert as uranium exploration looms ABC News, By Jacqueline Breen 19 Oct 14 Graziers are watching closely as the state government prepares to grant uranium exploration licenses in the state's far west.
Last month the government overturned the ban on uranium exploration and invited six companies to apply to explore for deposits near Broken Hill, Cobar and Dubbo.
The state's Resources and Energy Division has since held a stakeholder meeting in Broken Hill, attended by the local council, New South Wales Farmers and the West Darling Pastoralists' Association.
Association president Chris Wilhelm says landholders will be the first affected when exploration begins and he wants their rights protected……( Map below shows areas in New South Wales where uranium deposts exist, could be explored for))

Incident on nuclear waste ship illustrates why we should shut down Lucas Heights nuclear reactor
Why Australia should shut down the Lucas Heights nuclear reactor, Independent Australia Last week's fire on a nuclear waste ship off Scotland shows why Australia's Lucas Heights nuclear reactor should to be shut down, writes Noel Wauchope. 15 Oct 14, "……. The ship, the Parida, was carrying radioactive wastes that were being returned to Belgium……
In the case of Dounreay, there is now pressure on the countries where the wastes originated, because the Dounreay nuclear site is being decommissioned and demolished……
Transport of radioactive wastes to and from Lucas Heights is indeed a hazardous operation, requiring much expensive security. However, transport is not the only safety consideration. The previous HIFAR reactor ‒ and the present OPAL one ‒ have troubled safety records…….

New South Wales town Uralla in the running for getting 100% renewable energy
"We already have solar panels powering our aged-care facilities and heating our swimming pool; our community is telling us they want more renewable initiatives and this could fit the bill," Cr Pearce said yesterday.
Non-for-profit company Starfish Enterprises has secured a $105,000 state government grant to develop a blueprint for a zero net energy town, ideally located in the Northern Tablelands.
While more than 100 businesses have tendered to draw up the blueprint, the next step in the process is to find a suitable town willing to become the first to switch to 100 per cent green power.
Uralla, Walcha, Glen Innes, Inverell, Bingara and Manilla have all expressed an interest in becoming the model town. Cr Pearce said Uralla stood a good chance of becoming the selected town because there was substantial community support for the idea.
The move would follow several towns in the United States and Germany, all of which have shifted to zero net energy. This means the towns are powered by LED lighting, bio-gas plants, daytime solar panels and energy efficient pumping systems.
Starfish executive director Adam Blakester said expressions of interests from towns closed next Friday.
"An average town of 5000 people would spend up to $20 million a year on energy," he said. "If we can produce that energy locally and competitively, we create a new industry."
Northern Rivers Energy (NRE)'s comprehensive Community Renewable Energy plan
Energy company plans for region to go renewable http://www.echo.net.au/2014/10/energy-company-plans-region-go-renewable/ Simeon Michaels 8 Oct 14 Northern Rivers Energy (NRE), Australia's first community-based renewable energy retailer in the northern rivers, plans for the region to become fossil free within years.
Mark Byrne of the Total Environment Centre, which teamed with the Office of Environment and Heritage to provide the grant, told The Echo, 'We had several excellent tenders, but the NRE tender won because they had the most sophisticated and thorough understanding of the ways that the northern rivers community could be involved in the company.'
As reported in Echonetdaily last week, this is the first Australian attempt to adopt the community energy company model that has had dramatic effects in Hamburg (Germany) and Colorado (USA).
NRE company will focus on encouraging the wider take-up of solar energy, selling power at lower tarrifs and paying customers a fair price for their rooftop-generated electricity.
'The potential is enormous,' says NRE spokesperson Alison Crook. 'The northern rivers already has a high level of take-up of solar PV.
'We have a community that really understands what it means to support each other.
'We are aware of the reality of climate change and want to do something constructive about it.
'We can work with existing generators and there is plenty of scope for new projects.
Model for Australia
'Our aim is to generate sufficient renewable energy to cover our use within the region – a long-term goal and a moving target, but a model for Australia.' The $54,000 grant will assist NRE to develop its business plan, which is expected to focus on providing renewable energy at competitive rates while purchasing solar and other renewable energy at a fair price from existing residential, commercial and government system owners.

Melbourne and Moree get new solar businesses and employment openings
Spanish renewable energy firm sets up Melbourne-based subsidiary, THE FIFTH ESTATE 23 September 2014 Spain's Elecnor Group has ignored the current political climate in Australia's renewable energy sector and launched an infrastructure subsidiary based in Melbourne. ……..
Elecnor Australia's first project is the $164 million solar photovoltaic farm in Moree, New South Wales for the Moree Solar Farm Company Pty Ltd, part of Fotowatio Renewables Venture. The joint venture originally included Pacific Hydro, which announced in August it was withdrawing from the project due to the policy-driven uncertainties impacting the renewable energy industry.
The Australian Renewable Energy Agency has contributed $101.7 million towards construction and operation of the project, and $47 million has been provided by the Clean Energy Finance Corporation.
Covering 191 hectares, the farm will comprise 232,960 panels with a forecast annual output of 150 gigawatt-hours direct into the main energy grid, enough to power about 15,000 homes. It is expected to be complete and commissioned by the second quarter of 2015.
In a media statement, Elecnor said Australia will be a base for it to expand operations in the Asia-Pacific region, focusing on developing business infrastructure and renewable energies………
The Moree project has already created a number of positions to be based at the town, with the firm earlier this month advertising for an assistant project manager (engineer), a construction manager, six technical engineers as sub-contract supervisors, mechanical and electrical engineers, a civil engineer, two draftpersons, accounts and administration, purchasing and logistics.http://www.thefifthestate.com.au/business/investment-deals/spanish-renewable-energy-firm-sets-up-melbourne-based-subsidiary/67877
Australia's Lucas Heights nuclear reactor to get less security
Lucas Heights nuclear reactor's security may be cut DANIEL MEERS THE DAILY TELEGRAPH SEPTEMBER 24, 2014 THERE are fresh fears federal police numbers may be cut at the Lucas Heights nuclear reactor, the site of a security breach on Monday.
Just a day after police intercepted bushwalkers at the restricted site 31km southwest of Sydney, the Australian Manufacturing Workers Union claimed Australian Federal Police numbers would be cut from 21 to six at the site next month and restructured. The union's claims follow funding cuts for the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) which the organisation says has led to a restructure in operations.
Safety supervisors would also be outsourced under the restructure.
A spokesman for ANSTO yesterday said the union figures on policing were wrong but conceded there had been changes to roles…..
AMWU NSW secretary Tim Ayres said he was concerned about security at the site. "In a climate of heightened security risks, we're about to hand over security of a nuclear reactor to a contractor firm. How can this deliver better safety?
"The community expects our high-risk security targets are patrolled by professional federal police officers and a strong on-site safety culture. But ANSTO … has decided to go with the cheaper option."….http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/nsw/lucas-heights-nuclear-reactors-security-may-be-cut/story-fni0cx12-1227068424540
Risks of uranium mining outweigh any benefits
Anti-uranium activists criticise NSW exploration program, Australian Mining 15 September, 2014 Vicky Validakis Anti-nuclear campaigners have criticised the NSW government for opening up the state to uranium exploration.
Last week the state government invited six companies to apply for exploration licences.
The move comes two years after NSW overturned a uranium exploration ban. Mining uranium is still restricted.
Three locations around NSW – near Broken Hill, near Cobar and south of Dubbo – have been earmarked for drilling activity.
Natalie Wasley, spokeswomen for the Beyond Nuclear Initiative, said the decision was disappointing, ABC reported.
"Uranium has very unique and dangerous properties and risks," Wasley said. "It's linked to the production of the world's most toxic and long-lasting industrial waste, as well as proliferation of the world's most destructive weapons, so it poses a risk to workers, to communities and the environment."
Wasley said the sector will only create a small number of jobs, and claims the risks associated with uranium outweigh any economic benefits. "We know that in rural and regional areas there's a much better opportunity for long-lasting sustainable jobs in the renewable sector."
"We'd really encourage those local governments and the state governments to be putting money and resources into developing more creative, long-term and sustainable jobs for people."……..
The six companies invited to apply for licenses are Australian Zirconia, Callabonna Resources, EJ Resources, Hartz Rare Earths, Iluka Resources and Marmota Energy. http://www.miningaustralia.com.au/news/anti-uranium-activists-criticise-nsw-exploration-p
Uranium mining still prohibited in New South Wales, and not considered economically viable
Uranium exploration in western NSW – but mining is still prohibited NSW Country Hour Sally Bryant and Julie Clift 15 Sept 14, The New South Wales Government has invited six mining companies to put in expressions of interest to explore for uranium, but mining will remain prohibited, until deposits prove economically viable.
However not all of the mining companies who are involved in this process are actually interested in mining for uranium.
One of six companies invited to tender for an exploration licence, Alkane Resources, is developing a rare earth project near Dubbo, in the state's central west.
Alkane say they're not interested in uranium, that they are merely protecting their rare earth project from other resource companies applying for an exploration licence over the top of them
Managing Director Ian Chalmers says this is an insurance policy for his company……..http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-09-15/uranium-exploration-in-western-nsw/5743584

Mountain Dulcimer
The Cabin Creek teardrop-shaped Mountain Dulcimer is in
the historic Southwestern Virginia style. It is patterned after an historic instrument
over 100 years old from this area. The Cabin Creek hourglass model is reminiscent
of early mountain dulcimers from Kentucky.
The shapes of both style Mountain Dulcimers are
aesthetically beautiful and properly proportioned. Each is made from
"scratch". They are not assorted pieces bought from a supplier and put
together. Every instrument is made by me, from rough lumber to finished
instrument. Each Mountain Dulcimer is crafted with an aesthetically pleasing
overhang, like a violin/fiddle and is signed, numbered and dated. Most of the woods used are native to appalachia and
harvested from the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains.

The City of Wichita and the Wichita Airport Authority are seeking bids for a new terminal building at Mid-Continent Airport.
The new terminal building is the central component of the $160 million Air Capital Terminal 3 Program. ACT 3 is funded through a combination of FAA Grants, TSA Grants, Airport Passenger Facility Charges, and Airport Revenue.
The new terminal building will be a distinctive, modern, state-of-the-art, two-level, 273,000-square-foot facility with 12 gates, each with a passenger loading bridge. The new energy-efficient facility will have operationally efficient passenger and baggage security screening, baggage claim and airline ticketing systems. The food, beverage, and retail concessions will be greatly improved.
The city said no local tax dollars will be used for the project. Money from the airport and aviation system users will be used.
The terminal was designed by Kansas City-based HNTB Architecture, and the Program Manager is AECOM.
On Jan. 11, 2012, the airport will hold a pre-bid meeting for contractors at 1:30 p.m. at the Wichita Airport Hilton. Construction bids for the new terminal building will be publically opened on Feb. 17, 2012.
Groundbreaking for the new terminal is expected to be held in May, with a new operational facility opening in late 2014 or early 2015.

The National Automotive Parts Association organizes its more than 400,000 tools, replacement parts, and accessories in a unique and intuitive inventory-control system that tracks down customer selections quicker than the Dewey Decimal System equipped with a fast-forward button.

John Schwartz, the owner of Perfectionist Auto Sound & Security, is running out of shelf space for all of his awards. With accolades such as one of Mobile Electronics Retailer of the Year award recipients, 2010-2011 Retailer of the Year award, and Best Car Customizer, the shop and its staff have perfected the art of whipping whips into stylish shape. Perfectionist's services run the gamut from remote car-starter and audio-system installation to custom fabrications and lighting. An online gallery shows off some of the technicians' best work.
Led by an owner with more than two decades of car-washing experience, A+ Appearance's technicians cleanse vehicles' interiors and exteriors with meticulous detail services. Groomers primp vehicles with hand washes and waxes, removing grime and flecks of tar; they also protect paint with water-repelling Rain-X treatments. To kick off the interior detailing, growling vacuums steer through cabins to suck up dirt and dust before steam cleaning removes stains and henna tattoos from the car's upholstery. Techs also de-smudge windows; restore vinyl, plastic, and leather with conditioners; and treat autos to extras such as engine cleaning, tar removal, and clay-bar treatments.
Sam Meineke opened his three-bay muffler shop in 1972 with a single product line, and through time, he and his successors have expanded the business into a complete automotive car-care center. Today, nearly 900 franchise owners operate their locations around the globe, still standing on the firm foundation of Sam's ideal of nursing vehicles back to health at fair prices. Meineke's mechanics perform an array of services, keeping rides running in showroom condition with tune-ups, 23-point inspections, tire rotations, and deep-tissue windshield massages.
The staff at Cascade Auto Glass fits car frames with a meticulous process perfected during more than 750,000 windshield replacements, all adhering to Auto Glass Safety Council standards. Cascade's choice of top-quality urethane adhesives allows drivers to get back on the road sooner without sacrificing a reliable grip, and OEM-quality glass shares an identical structure, density, and love of parking-permit stickers as cars' factory-installed glass. A nationwide warranty stands behind the quality materials and workmanship of each service.
Monster Wash's three auto bays house an elite touch-free car wash with a three-sided sudsy assault, undercarriage wash, and a wind-shearing drying system. The wash and wax combo may be found on the detailing menu, as can the Express Interior Detail, which includes a vacuum for carpets and seats, a scrubbing of the windows and dash, and a fumigation for mischievous gremlins. With the interior package, autonauts earn a free exterior touch-free wash to tackle caked-on insects and snow. The Express Exterior Detail clears grime and gunk from the chassis by hand and replaces it with a lustrous coat of wax and polish, leaving jalopies as fresh and shiny as a mouthwash-scented candle. Additionally, this package includes a tire shine and cleaning of the inside and outside of all windows.

Midland Royal Family
Princess Charlotte
Voiced by: Yuri Shiratori (Japanese, TV series), Aki Toyosaki (Japanese, movies), Rachael Lillis (English, TV series and movies)
(To Griffith) "Together..Forever!"The heiress to the throne of Midland is a Princess Classic example. Not a fighter at all, meek, cute and rather capricious, she immediately falls in love with Griffith upon meeting him. She is the one who helped the Hawks enter Midland's castle so they could free Griffith. She got captured and almost raped by Ganishka not long after her father's demise.Upon his reincarnation, freeing her from Ganishka's grasp was one of Griffith's priorities, and during her captivity she would make embroideries of Griffith. Since she is the last pure royal of Midland, Griffith's plan is to marry her so he can access the throne legally.
The King of Midland
Voiced by: Tamio Oki (Japanese, TV series), Nobuyuki Katsube (Japanese, movies), Jeff Swarthout (English, TV series), Christopher Corey Smith (English, Movies)

Voiced by: Toshiko Sawada (Japanese), Suzanne Gilad (English)
"I will never forgive you, Griffith. Not as the Queen of Midland, but as a woman will I take my revenge!"The queen of Midland and Charlotte's stepmother, she disapproved of Charlotte's interest in Griffith and plotted against him.She plots against Griffith to have him poisoned during his own triumph party but her victory is short-lived. Griffith only pretended to be dead and took advantage of all conspirators being together at the same place to have them die in a massive fire, including the queen herself.
Count Julius
Voiced by: Ryuji Mizuno (Japanese, TV series), Rikiya Koyama (Japanese, movies), Dick Bunting (English, TV series), Jesse Corti (English, movies)
"A stray arrow, eh? Interesting...A fitting way for a commoner to die!"Brother of the king of Midland, and general of its most prominent army, the White Dragons. Unlike the king, he is against Griffith�s rising prominence and plots to assassinate Griffith. It doesn't work. Griffith finds out about it, and launches his own counter-assassination using Guts.
Midland Nobles
Minister Foss
Voiced by: Mahito Tsujimura (Japanese), Greg Miller (English)A conniving Midland noble, he opposes Griffith despite the advances he makes in the country�s war effort. Foss plots and schemes to have Griffith killed, but it always seems like one thing or another foils them.

Typographic ligature
In writing and typography, a ligature occurs where two or more graphemes or letters are joined as a single glyph. Ligatures usually replace consecutive characters sharing common components and are part of a more general class of glyphs called "contextual forms", where the specific shape of a letter depends on context such as surrounding letters or proximity to the end of a line. By way of example, the common ampersand represents the Latin conjunctive word et, for which the English equivalent is the word "and". The ampersand's symbol is a ligature, joining the old handwritten Latin letters e and t of the word et, so that the word is represented as a single glyph.

Oh, boy, where to begin...
The founders had great respect for their employees. No more. It is all about reducing, reducing, reducing. No raises for years. Workload from laid-off co-workers dumped in your lap, then again. Benefits and bonus cut to the bone. Long hours expected. No training budgets. "Cost effective" cubicle arrangements. They took a very motivated and committed community of employees and systematically squeezed out every ounce of drive and initiative. Very talented electrical, mechanical, and software engineers forced to become spec writers and outsource contractor coordinators. Very sad. Things are no longer "Invented" at HP, only acquired, coordinated, and managed. My main regret is that I did not leave before I witnessed the demise of this once great company.Advice to ManagementAdvice

They're not in the middle of the road nor at the end of it, but they may be on it because they must ride it all night long, and days. The video, which may come off unfinished but what's what they supplied, was directed by José Ruiz.
VIDEO: Tru Fam's "Dancer"
It has been awhile since we last heard from twins in hip-hop but coming from New Jersey are Tru Fam, who are coming out with an album in February called Going To The Ceremony. They've made a video for the Kaizon-produced song "Dancer", based on an Elton John song, and they hope it will catch a lot of attention.
BOOK'S JOOK: Earth Wind & Fire's "Mighty Mighty"
It is uncertain what was the first Earth, Wind & Fire song I heard but considering that we only had the Open Our Eyes album in our house until Spirit was released, it's safe to guess that it would be the opening track to Open Our Eyes, "Mighty Mighty". The song has a groove and a wicked sense of funk, what a way to begin a fantastic album. Sure, I got into the band more as they released That's The Way Of The World, Spirit and All-N-All but Open Our Eyes was my album, it was a must, it became necessary for me to listen to.
As a kid, I wasn't paying attention to the lyrics for "Mighty Mighty" but I knew the chorus "we are people of the mighty, mighty people of the sun" because it seemed to represent my upbringing in Honolulu, for me at least. When I heard the second half of the chorus which said "in our heart lies all the answers to the truth you can't run from", I wasn't sure what they were singing about, and it would take me awhile, and living life where I'd be able to relate to it completely, did I know its meaning.
The first chorus had Maurice White and Philip Bailey singing about keeping true to yourself, whether it's with a spiritual sense or whatever you choose to believe in because "how's your faith? 'cause your faith is you/who you kiddin', to yourself be true". What I never understood was the second chorus, but once I started living as an adult and got a job, then it all became perfectly clear:
"The eagle flies every seven days
still cryin' blue all about your pay
what ya gonna do 'bout your living thing?
will ya make it better or just complain?
everyday is real, don't run from fear
'cause better days are very near
there are times when you're bound to cry
one more time, head to the sky"
The song was about working a 9 to 5, having to deal with the powers that be and feeling stuck within certain boundaries. If you stick to your intentions and what you enjoy doing, you'll be happy. After that point, Bailey starts reading the high notes of the song, but he doesn't even stop there. He goes higher during the chorus and that has got to be the brightest sound of jubilation ever heard on wax.
Even the small moments in the song are great, from the brief mention of "delicious" after the line "who you kiddin', to yourself be true" to a minor "uh" panned to the left channel after the line "the eagle flies every seven days", whatever reasons they were placed and remained in the mix, it sounds awesome. The song lasts a mere thre eminutes and yet I'd love to hear a full version of it, be it unedited or to a proper close without a fade. I want this to happen in my life, it is on my bucket list.
Considering how much I love the drums, it makes sense that another reason why I like this 45 is because of its B-side, the song that opened side two of Open Our Eyes, "Drum Song". It opened me to the kalimba and made me want to have one, even though I had no idea how to play one. I received it as a gift for my 7th or 8th birthday and I have it to this day, out-of-tune and everything.
I also intended of putting other Earth, Wind & Fire songs into my dream jukebox, including "Got To Get You Into My Life", "Serpentine Fire", or "Fantasy" but no other song would fit perfectly into my jukebox than "Mighty Mighty", for me at least. I remember it as one of my earliest musical pleasures. If the entire album was released as 45's, I'd include it too but "Mighty Mighty" would have to go in there, for it represents who I am, in many ways.
REVIEW: "I'm Just Like You: Sly's Stone Flower 1969-70″
Over 15 years ago, I had an idea I suggested to Rhino Records that came from me spotting a 45 I found on Stone Flower Records. The Atlantic-distributed subsidiary was short lived but was a label given to Sly Stone as a way for him to record new music. In truth, it has been said that Stone wanted to come out with new music outside of his Epic Records soundtrack so as he was putting together what would become his There's A Riot Going On album, he went into the studio to release a lot of material. I had learned that Little Sister, which featured Stone's sister Venetta Steward, had recorded a full album meant for release, but remained in the tape vaults at the last minute when Sly finished the Family Stone album form Epic. So I knew more music existed. I figured Rhino Records would be the label to contact since it's a Warner Bros.-related label, Atlantic is distributed by Warner Bros., it wouldn't be difficult to come up with the masters. I did not get a response from Rhino, and I thought it would be a way for fans to hear music I felt already had a potential audience, and collectors would go nuts over it.
15 years later, Seattle's Light In The Attic have released a compilation that is very much exactly what I wanted Rhino to do so what became Rhino's loss is now LITA's gain. I'm Just Like You: Sly's Stone Flower 1969-70 features the four 45's Stone Flower Records released, plus a wealth of songs that had remained unreleased until now. If you are a fan of Sly Stone, then you have definitely heard Little Sister's "Somebody's Watching You", "Stanga", and "You're The One (Parts 1 & 2)". If you are a Stone collector, you most likely picked up or heard of 6iX and the song "Just Like You". You may have even heard of an early version of "Life & Death In G & A (Parts 1 & 2)" by Acaba Dream, released by A&M but was Sly & The Family Stone incognito with Hicks on vocals. In Hicks' own version, it's much slower, sleazier, grittier, dirtier but very much sexier. In truth, while the vocalist on these songs were by others, all of the music was entirely played by Sly Stone, and all come off as skeletal elements of what would become There's A Riot Going On, consider this a deep deluxe edition in a way.
What you also get on hear is the single Hicks released through Scepter Records, "Home Sweet Home – Part II" and "I'm Goin' Home". Both had Stone involvement and the label said it was a Stone Flower production, so it seems Stone was trying to find yet another label to release his music. If there are any major highlights on an album that is a highlight in itself, it's the songs credited solely to Sly Stone, including an early version of "Africa". One gets a sense that he was getting deep into himself as he was putting these together, but arguably this may have been the seeds of what happened when Stone started to lose himself as well. The man was a wizard in the recording studio and understood the roles he played inside, so what we're hearing is a master that was up there with people like Frank Zappa, Todd Rundgren, Paul McCartney, and Stevie Wonder Stone deserves to be ranked up there with the musical geniuses, and is example of the shadows someone like Madlib is in with his great production techniques.
In a greedy matter, I would have loved to have been an executive producer for a project like this had Rhino Records given the go-ahead. Today, I look at Light In The Attic Records as a label that came up with the idea too and did I'm Just Like You: Sly's Stone Flower 1969-70 properly. For me, this was long-awaited and fortunately, they did it right. Job well done.
REVIEW: Puddle Splasher "Poor Planning"
Poor Planning is a new 4-song EP by Puddle Splasher that play some pretty good rock, the type that you rarely hear on the radio these days or see on TV, but have to search for, which is how you discover the best music these days. I think these guys are pretty good, but so far I've mentioned the phrase "prety good" twice, and that was the third. It left me wondering if they're able to do anything more other than hit the popular cliches that other bands of their ilk can do and have done better. The song I was won over with was "You Will", and that's probably due to the fast tempo and the delicate moments the group went through in the song. What I like is that the songs are good and easy to remember and it didn't make me want to switch over to the next song. I wanted to hear more than the four songs featured here, which means I'll wait around until they come up with a full length album, then we'll go from there. I'll be anxious like the young kid on the cover.
REVIEW: Happy Diving's "Big World"
Upon listening to the opening song on Happy Diving's new album Big World, it lead me to wonder how they're going to keep up the massive flux of distortion they're placing in the song. I love distortion and there's a lot of harmonies going in the playing but can they keep it up? They do with their next song "Space Ooze" and I have to prepare for the massive punch these guys are going to supply. They don't lighten up their intensity until the half way point when "Sad Planet" begins, only to realize the verse are the sensitive part, the choruses (or what they call choruses) is a much bigger punch into the gut. They repeat the formula on the second half of the song, keeping things low and to the floor until the 10th and final song, "10", and then they bathe in walls of feedback. In between this, they sing songs of strength, power, loss, love, and wonderment, and they may do it in a way that some may overlook due to the velocity of how loud they play (or how bold the music is mixed). Fortunately, the album is mixed nicely, it doesn't sound terrible by any means, it's something that can be handled if you can tolerate the loudness. I happen to love it and when it comes time for the band to take a breathe, they do it nicely before they suffocate until the album properly ends.
REVIEW: Trust Fund/Joanne Gruesome's split 12″ EP
If you know of Joanne Gruesome, you'll be glad to know that they have three new songs for your listening pleasure. If you don't know who Trust Fund are, get to know them on this brand new split 12″ EP.
Joanna Gruesome's music may be called an in between release if you wish to call it that, but I simply consider it new music that they felt like releasing. I enjoy the dual vocals between Alanna Gruesome (McArdle) and Owen Gruesome (Williams). as it sounds good and is perfect for one another, you can place your emphasis on whomever depending on your mood. While all three songs are quite good, the one that jumped on me the most was "Coffee Implosion", I love how it builds up but never to the point of an actual implosion, almost as if they're saying we can take you there but not on record. Not yet.
Trust Fund also have three songs to discover. They are a spirited band. also from the UK, signed to Reeks Of Effort records and come off a bit like a cross between Weezer and The Go-Go's, both retaining a pop passion but also not being afraid to rock out with bravery and soul. "Scared" is the second of three sides on their song and that's the winner for me, although "No Pressure" is the most poppy of the three, light and sensitive but also crisp and strong.
It's a nice set of indie pop music from two bands who are doing it with class, and I'm glad HHBTM Records put them back to back for this EP.

World Bank Approves $600 Million to Support Railway, Public Transport, and Gas Utilization in China
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
March 28, 2014
WASHINGTON, March 28, 2014 - Today the World Bank's Board of Executive Directors approved three loans totaling $600 million to the People's Republic of China to provide more efficient and better public transport services in two major cities in Heilongjiang Province, expand railway capacity along a key transport corridor in the country's Northeast, and increase gas utilization to reduce greenhouse gases emission in Shanxi Province.
Harbin and Mudanjiang in Heilongjiang Province are among China's coldest cities in the winter. Public transport services in both cities are characterized by inadequate capacity and slow speed. Passengers often wait a long time for a bus in cold temperature. The Heilongjiang Cold Weather Smart Public Transport System Project, financed in part with an IBRD loan of $200 million, will support investments to improve the level of public transport services in the targeted corridors and reduce the impact of extreme weather conditions on public transport usage and operations. The project will improve pavement conditions, install bus stops, and provide heated indoor bus waiting facilities. It will also procure buses that use clean fuel and are accessible for disabled people, construct passenger hubs, terminal, bus depots, and facilities for maintenance, safety education and training of bus drivers. The project will deploy Intelligent Transport Solutions and other information technology to improve the efficiency and management of bus operations.
"The improvement envisaged in the project will improve public transport users' satisfaction and make buses a more attractive alternative to driving a private car," said Binyam Reja, Transport Sector Coordinator for China and Task Team Leader for the project.
People with disabilities will also benefit from buses, bus stops, and terminals designed to be accessible for people with visual and physical impairments.
The HaJia Railway Project, financed in part with an IBRD loan of $300 million, will support the construction of a 343 km-long double-track, electrified, mixed-use (passenger and freight) railway line between the cities of Harbin and Jiamusi (HaJia line) in the Heilongjiang Province in northeast China. The project will include construction of twelve new stations and upgrading of the existing Jiamusi station.
"The 15 million people living along this new line will be able to travel by rail in 2 hours instead of 7 hours, with six times more express trains per day than today. This will be safer than travelling by road, particularly during the many days of fog, snow and ice prevalent in this part of China. Businesses will be able to work closer together and discover new opportunities", said Gerald Ollivier, Task Team Leader for this project.
Upon completion in 2019, the new line will indeed reduce rail distance for passengers as well as freight between Harbin and Jiamusi by about 164 km, from the existing 507 km to 343 km, and passenger trains will be able to operate at 200 kilometers per hour. This line will offer a rapid link between cities in northeast Heilongjiang and Harbin, and from the railway hub in Harbin to the core of the Chinese high speed railway network. It will also provide a substantial increase in capacity for passenger trains between these cities. This is the 17th railway project with China Railways or its predecessor, the Ministry of Railways, supported by the World Bank in China.
The Shanxi Gas Utilization Project, financed with an IBRD loan of $100 million, will support investments in both distributed gas-fired combined heat and power (CHP) plants and the expansion of the gas distribution network in selected counties in Shanxi Province. The Baode 3x42MWe and Xiyang 3x42MWe gas-fired CHP plants are green-field power plants and will be built for power generation and heating supply to the adjacent cities. Pipelines and pressure regulating stations will be installed in Xiangyuan, Changzhi, Tunliu, and Qingxu counties to expand the gas distribution network to residential, commercial, and industrial consumers. Gas consumers supplied by the project will improve their living standards through use of clean energy. In addition, the global community will benefit from avoided greenhouse gas emissions, which contribute to global climate change mitigation.
"Gas is an emerging clean energy in China to achieve the twin goals of local environment improvement and global climate change mitigation. We expect the World Bank's support to help improve the quality of the sector development through introduction of international good practices," said Ximing Peng, Task Team Leader for the project.
"The three projects approved today will substantially contribute to increasing prosperity and improving development in China's northeast and western lagging areas through efficiency improvement in transportation and expansion of clean energy," said Mara Warwick, World Bank Operations Manager for China.

The newer Android versions already support moving the app from internal SD to an external. It should be in Settings->Applications->Manage Applications.

When flashing a ROM, make sure that all required packages are the right version. Usually it will state in the error which modem is needed. Since you are using the latest android build, you would want the latest modem version. Also read the thread on the ROMs forum and search for modem within their thread for extra info.

Regarding the battery drain and restarting. You need to flash a clean factory image from Samsung first. Then flash CyanogenMod again. As for the replacement, I would strongly recommend Nexus 6.

I advise you to do factory reset of your device as the problem sounds to be software related. If your mic was to be alright, even the voice mail wouldn't have worked.
If it's the PIN of the SIM card, remove the SIM from the phone and you're in. If it's the PIN you set in Android, you can try to install a custom recovery via ODIN.

Well, if you care about data, its a good practice to backup always. In your case, anyway, you don't have backup available with you.
