So if a drink contains only 0.2% of something, then that something isn´t worth mentioning. That´s what I get out of this ruling.I wonder if Justice Kennedy would mind apple juice that was 0.2% urine. Would that be OK? No? Well, then clearly 0.2% of something *DOES* matter.As long as Coca-Cola provided the percentages, it should be OK. It may be the SCOTUS messed this one up, too.

Percentages of juices are stated in declining order.That said, Linda Resnick, absolutely filthy rich and powerful woman who owns Pom Wonderful, Fiji Water, Franklin Mint, and other ventures with her uber-wealthy, powerful husband Stewart, may well be a good friend of Justice Kennedy.She is a flaming liberal. And used to getting her way. It wouldn´t surprise me to find out that a lot of pressure was applied here. Otherwise why would a Supreme Court Justice go all out and all in for a juice label?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynda_Resnick

I used to buy those different Knudsen sparkling juices - Strawberry, Pear, etc. That is, I did until I figured out (by reading each of the labels) that they were all just different versions of flavored apple juice. The only genuine article was the one labeled as ... sparkling apple juice.The SCOTUS, it appears, is saying that I shouldn´t have to do so much "due diligence" when I visit the grocery store. Surprised this wasn´t settled at the appeals level.

As long as it says "flavored" and the ingredients are all listed, there really is no issue. Most of those drinks are mostly water, apple and grape anyway...

Re #4, now I am really puzzled. Why would Justice Kennedy, nominated by Reagan and called "conservative", go all out for a flaming liberal like Resnick.I had forgotten that he was not one of the lib Justices. ???And why is he confused about something called "pomegranate blueberry flavored blend juices"???

Friends of Clinton notwithstanding, this ruling is a breath of fresh air.I used to buy pink grapefruit juice. It was real juice from pink grapefruit grown in Arizona and Texas. A decade ago it disappeared from most stores and was replaced by various brands of "ruby red pink grapefruit juice cocktail" or similar names. I read the labels and found these cocktails contained some white grapefruit juice, but also contained large amounts of grape juice (for color), water, citric acid, and some form of sugar (such as high fructose corn syrup). In most cases pink grapefruit juice was entirely absent, unless you count white grapefruit juice dyed pink with grape juice.There should be more crackdowns on intentionally misleading labels like the one in Kennedy´s ruling.

Why is Justice Kennedy getting so much grief here?? He only wrote the opinion for the court. It was a UNANIMOUS opinion meaning ALL the justices including the conservatives found against Coca-Cola. Of course it is misleading labeling.What if you bought a can labeled "Green Beans" and when you opened it found it was all peas except for 2 green beans? The label should bear some resemblance to the major ingredient in the bottle or can.

I have found from experience that you must read label very carefully. I want cranberry juice. I buy cranberry juice that the label says is 100% juice. If you should read a little more careful. You will see that there is also pear and apple juice mixed in. The label has 100% in real big letters but right next to the 100%, it will say vitamin C or from concentrate.

If you have read any of my other cosplay articles you will know that I love video games and if you have not…I love video games. So, when I come across a particularly well done gaming related cosplay – I instantly love it. And this one is no exception, which is why it is my cosplay of the day.
Today's cosplay of the day is Mileena from the Mortal Kombat games. The above absolutely awesome cosplayer is AsherWarr and I think you might agree, that she has cosplayed the hell out of her.
Below is what the actual character looks like:
I think the similarities between the two speak for themselves.
I am actually super impressed with this rendition, as on the initial first glance you might be fooled into thinking that this getup would be pretty easy to put together as there is really not very much of it – the thing is though, when you think about it, it is for this exact reason, that it is not simple at all.
Everything has to be customed to the exact measurements of the wearer. There is not much fabric, but the design is very strong and precise. So, if the design/colour/size etc. is wrong in any way, it is obviously and instantly noticeable. I love the deep shade of purple and the facemask and the gloves. Her accessories are perfection. I also love the meticulous attention to detail that is evident throughout the ensemble. Plus the boots look super hot.
As I said above, I do love gaming related cosplay and this one draws from one of those games that is always good for a bit of fun. If you like what you see, you can view more of AsherWarr's amazing portfolio of work on her DeviantART site here.
What do you think? Do you like today's pick? What other game-related characters would you like to see brought to cosplay life? Let me know in the comments section and if you are a cosplayer that wants to get featured, send me an email. I am always happy to hear from you: firstname.lastname@example.com

I love the giant bobbins I have for my wheel. I really do. The only thing is, if I'm spinning a big (for me) project, it's hard to feel like I'm making very much progress.
I can see the pile of pseudo-rolags getting smaller, but the bobbin doesn't look all that different from day to day.
Maybe this is a meditative lesson I could learn from spinning. "Keep up your practice, don't get caught up in a specific kind of progress."
Or maybe I'll weigh my fiber basket before I start my next batt, so I can weigh it again when I feel like my progress is too slow...

Nelly Furtado is beautifully dressed in various outfits in a music video for her latest single "Fuerte". In between the costume changes, the Canadian singer/songwriter is writhing around a lavishly-decorated house before jumping into a swimming pool.
Coming from production hands of Salaam Remi, "Fuerte" features Spanish singer Concha Buika who also makes a cameo in the music video. The song appears in Furtado's first full-length Spanish album "Mi Plan" which has been in stores since September 2009.
A year after the album release, Nelly Furtado is now preparing to release a greatest hits compilation "The Best of Nelly Furtado" and already dropped the lead single "Night Is Young". She said it's a way to celebrate 10th anniversary of her music career, saying "I'm proud of the fact that ('Whoa, Nelly!') came out a full 10 years ago and you can still put it on and it sounds like something that's on the radio now." She will release it in United States on November 16.

If you look at his finger on the hand thats holding the book it looks bugger then his whole hand. All in all I think its time for an art rework. Also Anivias art is still her old art just saying.
P.S at the least could you put in the chinese art for these champs like you did MF and Ez

The Nike Swoosh
Was the Nike Swoosh (which is perhaps one of the most famous corporate logos in the world, second only to McDonald's golden arches) really designed by a graphic design student who got paid only $35 for it? It sounds like an urban legend playing off of Nike's use of cheap Asian sweatshop labor. But apparently the story is true. At least, the Nike website confirms it. The swoosh was designed in 1971 by design student Carolyn Davidson, and she did only receive $35 for it. However, in 1983 the company gave her a gift of stock as a token of their appreciation.

Geiger Counter - Part 2 (complete)
This post describes how I went about integrating the circuit described in the previous post with an Arduino and a LCD display.
I put it all into an old laptop power supply case - not my best work, but as we said in Arkansas, "it ain't no piano". It does have a nice sturdy feel though.
After experimenting with an LED bar graph and a Nokia 3310 cell phone display, I settled on a simple and cheap 8x2 LCD display from Sure Electronics.
First I moved the Geiger circuit off the breadboard and on to a proto board.
On the other side of the case, I added the batteries, display and a small board for the Arduino MCU. It's just a simple stand-alone Arduino circuit using a resonator.
The code counts the interrupts from the tube for a period of time, and displays the counts / minute as a value on the 1st line and as a bar graph on the second. I adapted the code for the bar graph from DeFex . It's nice because it uses custom characters to make partial blocks.
I used two different counting periods - a longer period when the CPM is below 100 (counting background radiation) and a shorter period when there is more activity. You can download the code here.
Here is the obligatory short movie . . .
It was a nice surprise to find our bathroom tile was hot. (Should help kill the germs!) Since the house was built in the '20s, I imagine it's uranium green glaze.

I am betting globally a lot of people are going to want to build these for their own peace of mind. Thanks for sharing your build infoReplyDelete
You may have taken the first step in solving the main problem with a geiger counter, which is that it is only a snapshot in time of the radiation being detected right now. A much more important question is, what is the sum of the radiation I have been exposed to? Can this be quickly modified to count the rads as I wear it? That would be incredibly useful beyond measureReplyDelete
I think you are talking about data logging. Since the Arduino is now interfaced to the Geiger counter, it would not be too difficult to add this. The CPM could periodically be written to a SD card, or, at least, to an EEPROM. A time stamp could also be written to the log.
However, I would hesitate to say this is an answer to your question: "what is the sum of radiation I have been exposed to?" With any DIY counter, I think all you can be sure of is CPM. In order to measure exposure in Rem or Sv the device must be calibrated. The characteristics of the GM tube chosen (beta vs gamma sensitivity) may also be a factor. (I wish I knew more about this.)
Logging the CPM over time would tell you when you were exposed to higher levels, and it might give you an *idea* about your total exposure, but I think calculating the actual exposure is more complicated - although even that may be subjective.
Sorry about the "careful answer" and thank you for your observation. I think adding data logging of CPM would still be a nice addition.
As I write, the disaster in Japan is still unfolding. This blog, due to this Geiger counter project, is getting 10 times the hits it usually does! Again, my wishes for a safe outcome for the people of Japan.
A kit would come in handy now.ReplyDelete
I did a little investigation on the "calibration" you mention. It seems that CPM is directly convertible into mSv/year.ReplyDelete
Here are some conversions:
300CPM == 0.5mRem/hour == 43.8mSv/year
(1Rem == 10mSv)
According to this article
the max dose allowed for radiation workers is 50mSv/year, which makes it a little bit more than 300CPM (for an entire year).
So you can easily modify your Arduino code to display the radiation in mSv/year now.
"A kit would come in handy now."ReplyDelete
I've been thinking about that too!
I have a board designed that will make the high voltage circuit and also hold the ATmega. It's 3.8 x 7.6 cm (1.5 x 3 inches). I plan to send it in for a small test run tonight. The board alone should make it much easier to build this project.
Then, if there is enough interest, I could source most of the parts - probably excluding the GM tube, ATMega, and LCD.
Since you have been around the block on this, I'd appreciate any advice you wish to PM me on.
Thanks for the CPM to mSv conversion. I have a collection of several formulas that don't confirm one another, but your's might be the most reasonable. Where did it come from?
Thanks for your help and encouragement!
CDV-700 Geiger counter has 2 units of measurement on the indicator: mr/hr and C/M. The scales seems to be liniar and 300 CPM corresponds to 0.5 mr/hr. Conversion from milirens to siverts is direct (1Rem == 10mSv).ReplyDelete
Will PM you.

Hi ThereReplyDelete
I just found this link about another arduino project and the conversion from CPM to Sievert. maybe interesting to take a look at it if you want to implement this function :
Funny! I was just reading that when I got notified of your comment! (Then I couldn't find it here, and had to release it from Google spam for some reason.)ReplyDelete
Yes, great information on that product and the conversion from CPM to Sv. It looks to be well thought out. I will likely use it. Thanks for the tip.

Clerks 1755-1809
Extra Clerks 1755-82
On the formation of the Marine Department in 1755 provision was made for a clerical
staff with salaries payable by the Paymaster of Marines. At first this staff consisted of a
First Clerk with a salary of £100 and a Second Clerk with a salary of £70, together with
two Extra Clerks. (fn. 1) The salary of the First Clerk was increased to £200 in 1756. (fn. 2)
Fearne, the holder of this office, was then a junior Clerk on the ordinary establishment
of the Admiralty. He remained First Clerk after his promotion to the office of Deputy
Secretary to the Admiralty in 1764 until his retirement in 1766. (fn. 3) His successor as
Deputy Secretary, Jackson, was also allowed the salary of £200 attached to the office
of First Clerk in the Marine Department. (fn. 4)
In 1778 the salary of the Second Clerk was raised to £100 and a Third Clerk was
appointed at £70 a year. (fn. 5) In 1782 the salary of £200, formerly attached to the first
clerkship, was made a permanent part of the remuneration of the Deputy Secretary
of the Admiralty who was given the additional title of Deputy Secretary of the Marine
Department. At the same time the salaries of the three Clerks were fixed at £130, £80
and £60. (fn. 6) In 1784 the third clerkship was abolished and in 1790 the salary attached
to the second clerkship was increased to £110. (fn. 7)

LEHIGH ACRES, Fla - Thieves stole a trailer full of donations from a good Samaritan. The woman was collecting items for a family who lost their home in a fire.
A 6 x 12 black trailer sat in Christy Lane's Lehigh Acres driveway everyday for four months, until late Tuesday afternoon.
"Everything that we had collected for a family, everything that was in the trailer, everything gone," said Lane.
The items inside, furniture and clothes, were all donated by Christy's family and friends for a family who attends Lane's church in Alva.
The Mercer/Woodard family lost everything in this fire, earlier this month.
Christy planned on surprising the family this week.
"Hopefully now, I can start collecting again and re start all over again," said Lane.
Now Christy says there are some clues, they are very hard to see, but there are small tracks here in the driveway, that Christy says do not belong to the family.
She believes, they may have been targeted.
"I think they knew our schedule, and kind of watched the house. They picked a day when no one was home on the entire street," said Lane.
The next day, a mile and a half down the road, Christy found some of their stuff, including clothes collected for the children, and parts her husband planned to sell to raise money.
"It was really sad, especially when you see the clothes, all your hard work laying on the side of the road, just tossed like it didn't matter," said Lane.
While LCSO investigates, she has a message for the suspects.
"Put it back in the driveway and we will call it even," said Lane.
If you have any information, please contact LCSO.
The trailer is described as black metal, with white wheels.
Donations are being accepted through Alva's Angels.

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama has bestowed the nation's highest military honor on two Army privates killed during the Korean War.
Obama awarded the Medal of Honor to Anthony T. Kaho'ohanohano of Hawaii and Henry Svehla of New Jersey during a somber ceremony Monday at the White House. The event was tinged by the news that al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden was killed by U.S forces.
Kaho'ohanohano was in charge of a machine-gun squad on Sept. 1, 1951, when enemy forces overwhelmed them. He gathered up grenades and fought the enemy alone until his ammunition ran out, then by hand until he was killed.
Svehla, a rifleman, charged enemy positions when his platoon came under heavy fire on June 12, 1952. He was mortally wounded after throwing himself on a grenade.

Do I really need to say anything else?
I guess I'll tell you a little bit about this PARTICULAR cheese. Because this PARTICULAR cheese (ricotta, b-t-dubs) is topped with an insanely yummy roasted red pepper balsamic sauce (HEY-O) and then baked in the oven and then topped with some parsley and then slathered on some garlicky, buttery crostini and then shoved into one's face with great abandon. You with me? Yes? Good.
This is a great appetizer option now that we're all gearing up for the holidays (WAIT, WHERE DID 2014 GO?!) Make the red pepper sauce ahead and keep it in the fridge if you like, then assemble and serve the baked ricotta whenever it strikes your fancy. Pro tip: This is the perfect amount for a small dinner party (or, y'know, my lunch on a Tuesday), but double it if you're feeding a crowd.

How about a nice change of pace in that daily white wine experience? We usually have a glass or two when we come home from work, and y'know, sometimes it's refreshing to reach for something other than the old Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, or Pinot Grigio.
The answer: a white blend from the Rhone, like Pierre Henri Morel Laudon Cotes du Rhone Villages Blanc. For around $14 a bottle, you'll like the change as much as we do.
A blend of 50% Grenache Blanc, 30% Roussanne, and 20% Viognier, Morel puts the traditional white grapes from the Rhone into a very tasty blend.

Glasgow's miles better
Glasgow's Miles Better was a campaign to promote the city of Glasgow as a tourist destination and as a location for industry. It was developed by Scottish advertising agency, Struthers Advertising, and featured the phrase "Glasgow's Miles Better" wrapped around the cartoon figure of Mr. Happy. It is regarded as one of the world's earliest and most successful attempts to rebrand a city, and received a number of domestic and international awards.[1][2]
It was launched by the then Lord Provost of Glasgow Michael Kelly in 1983. Glasgow had previously suffered from a reputation as a hard-drinking, gang-ridden, working-class city. The campaign focused on the cultural richness of the city, its environment (more parkland per head of population than any other city in Europe), its mild climate and its suitability for enterprise. The result was a very significant change in the way Glasgow was viewed from the outside. The figure of Mr. Happy from the Mr. Men children's books appeared on posters and badges alongside the slogan.
John Struthers was man credited with devising the "Glasgow's Miles Better" campaign.[3]
The catch-phrase is a famous example of a null comparative. The deliberate vagueness was certainly part of the success of the campaign.
In later phases of the campaign the catch-phrase was adapted in a number of ways, such as "Glasgow smiles better".
Edinburgh apparently responded to the campaign with a billboard and banner advertising campaign bearing the slogan, "Edinburgh: Count Me In".[4]
A new version of the Glasgow's Miles Better logo is due to launch as a website in 2014.[5]

'Spectacular' assays don't require disclosure
That's the position of Canaco Resources directors, who say the results were from infill drilling and did not add to African gold deposit's value
David Baines, Vancouver SunPublished: Saturday, March 09, 2013
How do you argue that drill results that you have privately and publicly described as "spectacular" are not material?
That's the predicament that four directors of Canaco Resources Inc., a junior mining company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange, find themselves in.
B.C. Securities Commission enforcement staff have accused Canaco chief executive officer and director Andrew Lee Smith and three co-directors, Randy Smallwood, David Parsons and Brian Lock, of granting themselves options before releasing drill results that could reasonably have been expected to boost the stock price.
Enforcement staff have also alleged that, after issuing themselves options, the four directors staggered the release of those results, rather than releasing them all at once, to maximize the impact on Cana-co's stock price.
An 11-day hearing was held in January and closing arguments were delivered this week. The chairman of the hearing panel, Brent Aitken, said the panel will issue its decision well within the 90-day target for such proceedings.
For the respondents, it is a high-stakes case. If they lose, they could be suspended from the B.C. securities market, which would have serious consequences for their careers. All are deeply involved in the public market.
Smith is a professional geologist and has served as a director of many junior resource companies listed on the venture exchange, including True North Gems Inc.
Parsons is a certified general accountant and vice-president of insurance and risk management for senior gold producer Goldcorp Inc.
Smallwood - who is no longer a director of Canaco - is president, chief executive officer and a director of Silver Wheaton Corp., one of the world's largest silver companies.
Brian Lock sits on the boards of several junior exploration companies, including Castle Peak Mining Ltd. (where Smallwood also serves as a director) and Scorpio Gold Corp. (where Smith serves as a director).
Canaco and Smith are being represented by a quartet of lawyers led by veteran counsel Hein Poulus of Stikeman Elliott LLP.
Smallwood and Lock are being represented by high-profile securities lawyer Rod Anderson of Harper Grey LLP and several assistants.
On the other side are two relatively young BCSC staff lawyers, Jeremy Gellis and Ryan Carrier.
They told the panel the four respondents became aware in November 2010 that there were undisclosed drill results from the company's Magambazi gold discovery in Tanzania.
They are further alleging that Smith knew the results of eight holes, and the other three directors knew the results of three of those holes.
On Dec. 3, before those results were released, the directors voted each other hundreds of thousands of options at an exercise price of $4.56, based on the previous day's closing price.
The next day, Smith circulated a draft new release containing the results of all eight holes.
In email exchanges, Lock described them as "just beautiful"; Smallwood deemed them to be "spectacular results!"; Parsons said they were "fantastic news"; and Smith referred to two holes - Holes 96 and 98 - containing "extremely high-grade assays."

|Psychodynamic Therapy for Patients With Borderline Personality Disorder and Alcohol Abuse
|Brief Summary
The purpose of the study is to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of a modified form of psychodynamic psychotherapy for persons suffering from co-occurring borderline personality disorder and an alcohol use disorder.
|Detailed Description
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a condition that can cause significant distress and increased risk of death. Many persons with BPD also have an alcohol use disorder (AUD) and there is evidence that this can worsen the outcome and course of both disorders.
A manual-based form of psychodynamic therapy (PT), labeled dynamic deconstructive psychotherapy, has been developed for particularly challenging patients with BPD, especially those with co-occurring substance use disorders. It aims to remediate specific neurocognitive capacities that are responsible for processing of emotional experiences, and so diminishes symptoms of BPD and promotes the development of a coherent and differentiated self-structure. PT has been shown to be helpful for BPD, but has not been tested for people who have BPD with co-occurring substance use disorders.
The proposed study is a randomized controlled trial of PT for persons with BPD and co-occurring AUD that will generate some initial data that can be used to determine the need and feasibility for further outcome studies. Participants are randomized to either a study group receiving weekly PT or to a control group receiving usual care. Enrollment is 15 participants in each group. The study group will receive 12-18 months of PT, with naturalistic follow-up. Outcome measures are administered by a research assistant at enrollment, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months, and 30 months.
The investigators anticipate that the PT group will show trends towards better retention in treatment and greater reduction in parasuicides, alcohol misuse, and institutional care. If so, this would have important and positive implications for the large group of patients who suffer from BPD and co-occurring AUD.

December 3, 2013
Standards of Learning tests were a hot topic in the meeting between legislators and school board members.
The state Department of Education implements the standards set by the Board of Education, and that includes the exams.
At the heart of the issue for Albemarle school leaders is the feeling that the tests aren't challenging enough, and that they don't prepare students for the skills they need in the workforce.
School Board Chair Steve Koleszar says the current assessments are mostly multiple choice and they are done that way because they are cheap and easy to grade.
"We are measuring things that are easy to measure not the things that we should be measuring. We want our kids to be able to function in the 21st century."
School board member Diantha McKeel says the county has tried to opt out in the past but not been allowed to do it.
"They've not been willing to allow us to opt out. We had a little discussion about that…but it seems like from what the legislators are telling us today that there is some momentum by the General Assembly going into the session to look at a different format."
The school board has been piloting with freshman and seniors the College and Workforce Readiness Assessment, a test that focuses more on critical thinking, creativity, collaboration and communications.
In last year's General Assembly session, Delegate David Toscano introduced a resolution requesting a study of alternatives to the SOL but that resolution failed to make it out of committee.
Delegate Rob Bell says it is worth exploring whether or not there is an alternative that would better suit Albemarle while making sure students don't slip through the cracks but he is not a fan of getting rid of the testing entirely.
This year, the County School board is hoping again that their representatives will go to Richmond and voice their unhappiness with the current testing.

NC Governor Says He Won't Back Down To Protesters
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Faced with increasing public criticism over GOP policies, Gov. Pat McCrory promised Saturday he would continue to stand his ground and push for legislation that would promote his party's conservative ideals.
McCrory said since he took office in January, special interest groups vowed to "fight us."
"They were going to do everything they could to protect the status quo which got us into this mess," the governor told delegates at the state GOP convention in Charlotte.
He said critics also have targeted the GOP leadership in Raleigh: House Speaker Thom Tillis and Senate leader Phil Berger.
"Let me tell you something. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers have always been one of my favorite groups. One of my favorite songs is 'I Won't Back Down.' Tom Tillis won't back down. Phil Berger won't back down. The Senate and the House won't back down. We want to change the status quo in state government and change this economy. That's what we're going to do."
This was the first state GOP convention since McCrory was elected governor.
In November, the GOP wrested control of both houses of the General Assembly away from Democrats for the first time since Reconstruction. McCrory is the state's first Republican governor in 20 years.
The GOP has been pushing through legislation promoting conservative policies, and that has led to protests by civil rights and other groups.
The NAACP has organized near-weekly demonstrations inside the state legislative building that have led to hundreds of arrests since April.
Though the NAACP imitated the protests, their ranks have been swelled by left-leaning clergy, doctors, advocates for the disabled and others protesting cuts to social programs, changes to voting laws and other issues championed by Republicans. Protesters are also rankled that state lawmakers have decided to forego expanding Medicaid to cover 500,000 people through 2016, even though it would be mostly federally funded.
NAACP leaders, who point to national media coverage the demonstrations are starting to attract, say the protesters will return next week.
McCrory warned that outside groups were helping stir up trouble.
"Outsiders are coming in and they're going to try to do to us what they did to Scott Walker in Wisconsin," he said referring to that state's governor. Walker and Republican legislators in Wisconsin passed a contentious law in 2011 that stripped most state workers' collective bargaining rights. The law sparked massive protests at the state Capitol that generated national publicity for Walker. "They are going to come in and try to change the subject. And I'm not going to let them. I'm going to concentrate on the economy, education and government efficiency."
Ben Ray, the state Democratic Party's rapid response director, criticized McCrory's comments.
"Gov. McCrory's attitude is everything wrong with Raleigh. He's joined Phil Berger and Thom Tillis to reject health care for 500,000 North Carolinians and is embracing a deeply unpopular legislature that works for special interests, not North Carolina families," he said.
He added that it was hypocritical for McCrory to say outside groups were targeting North Carolina.
"Pat McCrory had more than $5 million spent on his behalf by outside groups in 2012. Accusing North Carolinians opposed to his special interest-driven agenda of being outsiders is rank hypocrisy," he said.
Several state GOP leaders also addressed the convention-goers, including Tillis, who announced less than two weeks ago that he'll run for the U.S. Senate seat currently held by Democrat Kay Hagan.
Tillis is a four-term legislator from suburban Charlotte who has led the House since 2011.
Physician Greg Brannon of Cary is the only other publicly announced GOP in the Senate race.
Tillis criticized Hagan, saying she's too liberal for North Carolina.
"How many people think that we need a cheerleader for Barack Obama?" he asked.
He also said that the party has to unite behind the winner of next year's GOP senate primary.
"We're going to have to have a primary. Primaries are good. That's how I got here. And after the primaries are completed, we'll come together and that candidate who comes out in May is the candidate that we all have to get behind," he said.
At the end of Saturday's sessions, Claude Pope Jr. was elected chairman of the state party. Pope, a former Wake County Republican Party chairman and current Bald Head Island grocery store owner, succeeds former U.S. Rep. Robin Hayes, who has been chairman since January 2011. McCrory, Tillis, Berger and U.S. Sen. Richard Burr all publicly endorsed Pope.

Best Conoli, Eclair, French Napolean in Astoria
- s
- Stuartmc910 Mar 4, 2009 10:29 AM
My wife and I enjoy the above. However, we have yet to find a dcent one of any of them in Astoria (mostly in the 30 th Avenue/ Broadway area). Any suggestions?
You mean "cannoli"? People say very good things about the cannoli at La Guli bakery on Ditmars, between 29th and 31st. Some have said they're the best in Queens. They're not my favorite pastry, so I can't add to that.
As for French pastries, there are a few French bakeries around, but I've never heard they're worth a trip.
Back when I lived in Astoria, La Guili was the place to go, and whenever we visit family that's moved down to NC, we still swing through Astoria to hit La Guili to bring cannoli, so give them a try. The original owners bought it back after a time in (i think) the 90's where they didn't own it, and the quality has supposedly gone back to what it was.
re: Stuartmc910
your hips won't thank me. I started the Cannelle Diet today. I can't go there too often anymore.
I enjoy the pastries at Terrizzi's on 30th Av btwn 35th and 36th Streets. I also like their homemade gelato in the spring and summer.
umm there are glaring omissions from this thread:
for excellent cannoli, cream puffs eclairs and italian cookies Rose and Joe's bakery on 31st off astoria ditmars stop on the N/W train is a MUST! Filled to order cannolis helloooo! and a slew of other baked goods and breads
La guli pastry shop and st. honore both are nearby and can supply you withwhatever napoleon/cake/tart needs you may have, and i cant personally vouch for the gelato at la guli, ive had the straciatella and the "la guli" chocolate (chocolate with gobs of soft caramel) and both were delicious.
You should also try the sicilian square pizza found at the back counter at Rose and Joes, it is no frills super fantastic pizza

At the top left of the screen you'll see a display that tells you what you should be doing. You can accept a new mission at any time; the reward for the mission (experience points) is also clearly spelled out, giving you an incentive. Three factors can influence which mission appears: requests from teammates on a special menu system; dynamic battle conditions within the map; and built-in events that happen as your progress through the map.
Which brings us to another point - each map is being built a bit more like a level from a single-player game; while they're still expansive and you're largely free to go where you want to, there will be an ultimate objective at the "end" of any given map - for example, a compound to infiltrate and destroy.
A variety of tools, vehicles and weaponry will, of course, be strewn across the battlefield. Shield generators which help the Strogg defense, for example, can be used or destroyed (depending on which side of the battle you find yourself on.) Air strikes are, of course, a possibility. In general, it seems that the developers are committed to putting in a full array of toys - and making the vehicles more drivable than in the Battlefield series, to boot.
So that's about it, by and large. There's a ton more detail in this game that's left to be seen - the quality of the graphics and gameplay is in line with the ideas we've been impressed with it. And don't forget to check out our video interview with the game's Lead Designer, Paul Wedgwood, while you're at it:

- grid. The greater use of non-firm service wrings the maximum efficiency out of the system.
- Compiled from monthly summaries on the NERC Web site, http://www.nerc.com/~filez/Logs/index.html.
- Another way to look at it is that in a reliable system there is always a set of fuel prices for which congestion is zero, i.e., it is all about economics.
- A good example of this is the increase in reported congestion in PJM that arose from the addition of Allegheny Energy as PJM West. With integrated dispatch, efficiency increased from what it was before. But PJM's reported congestion went up with Allegheny now part of PJM. See , p. 103. It is also important to distinguish gross congestion cost from net congestion cost (net being the congestion cost to load that is not hedged by fixed/financial/firm transmission rights [FTRs]). Taking PJM as an example, gross congestion cost was $430 million in 2002, , at 101, but net congestion cost was $115 million, W. Scott Miller III, "A Call for Reason," , June 1, 2003, at 14.

Launch of GreenFaith ARRCC Climate Action Kits in Victoria
ARRCC, the Australian Religious Response to Climate Change, has now completed three comprehensive Action Kits for religious organisations; Christian, Jewish and Hindu, with the Muslim one to be published shortly and others to follow. These kits can be downloaded free, and are full of ideas for faith groups to take action, collectively and individually, locally and more widely, and also practical as well as political. Ideas for religious meetings and services – as well as services to its members and community. Each kit also contains sources and texts, writings and sermon ideas from across that faith tradition addressing our religious responsibility to address climate change issues. The kits are available online here.
The kits will be launched in Victoria by Dr Moss Cass who was part of Gough Whitlam's 1972 Labor Government, and became Australia's first Minister for the Environment and Conservation. Moss is believed to have been the first to state the now well-known environmental saying "We did not inherit our future from our ancestors, we have borrowed it from our children."
