California Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan Disappoints Wind Energy Industry
State and federal agencies today released for public review the draft Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan (DRECP). The release comes nearly six years after California and the federal government announced an unprecedented effort to jointly collaborate on a land use plan intended to expedite renewable energy development while protecting the unique natural resources in the California desert. The draft Plan is being greeted with disappointment by CalWEA. "After years of trying to constructively engage in this process, we did not expect this plan to provide permitting efficiencies for wind energy. But it now appears that our worst fears are being realized: all five DRECP Plan Alternatives would largely end most wind energy development in California," said Nancy Rader, Executive Director of CalWEA.

Fast Facts about California Wind Energy
+ Wind energy projects totaling approximately 5,812 megawatts (MW) of capacity are operating in California today,
providing enough electricity to power more than 2 million California households.
This represents more than a tripling of wind energy capacity since California's Renewables Portfolio Standard (RPS) law was adopted in 2002.
+ In 2012, California wind projects generated 9,152 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of electricity - 4.6% of all power generated within California.
In the same year, out-of-state wind projects generated 9,983 GWh of electricity for California, representing 10% of total power imports.
Combined, wind projects supplied 6.3% of California's total system power,
enough to power all homes in Sacramento, Santa Clara, and San Diego Counties combined.
+ CalWEA expects wind energy to provide close to 7% of California's electricity supply in 2014.

Dan Tangherlini has led GSA as acting administrator for 13 months. (File photo)
Dan Tangherlini, who has been acting Administrator of the General Services Administration for more than a year, now may get the job permanently. On May 22, President Obama announced his intention to nominate Tangherlini for the role.
In his acting capacity, "Dan helped restore the trust of the American people in the General Services Administration by making the agency more efficient, accountable and transparent," Obama said. "I want to thank Dan for his leadership over the past year and for agreeing to continue serving in the administration."
Tangherlini, formerly assistant secretary for management and CFO at the Treasury Department, became acting GSA administrator in April 2012, after former Administrator Martha Johnson resigned. He took the helm as the agency was reeling from revelations of lavish overspending on a Las Vegas conference and instituted several reforms intended to get firmer control over the agency's financial decisions and to increase accountability.
Tangherlini's nomination is subject to Senate confirmation.

I'm a GSA employee and I don't know whether this is good news. Mr Tangherlini was put in charge of GSA because of the PBS Conference scandal. And like all political reactions, the whole agency was penalized rather than the few 'high-ranking' officials who were the cause. I'm not saying that some of the changes he has put into place weren't needed, but, in total, Mr Tangherlini's actions can be liken to using a sledge hammer to kill an ant. From my point of view and the last GSA employee satisfaction survey, the agency's atmosphere has worsen. I believe this is not just due to the changes themselves, but also the turmoil caused by the effort of many sizeable and simultaneous initiatives in addition to the duties which are the agency's mission. I'm waiting to see any 'positive' changes for GSA because all I've seen so far from Mr Tangherlini are restrictions and prohibitions.

South of the Border Supper
Chipotle chiles frequently come packaged in adobo sauce (a Mexican-type red sauce) and can be very hot. They're usually found in the Mexican section of your supermarket. Substitute 1/4 teaspoon of ground pepper for the chipotle, if desired.
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; sauté 3 minutes or until tender. Add chili powder and next 6 ingredients (chili powder through green chiles); bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes. Ladle chili into individual bowls, and garnish with cilantro sprigs, if desired.
Cooking Light NOVEMBER 1995
Combine the first 5 ingredients in a medium bowl; stir well with a wire whisk. Add remaining ingredients; toss gently to coat.
Cooking Light NOVEMBER 1995
Combine the first 5 ingredients in a bowl; beat at medium speed of a mixer until well-blended. Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt; stir well. Add to sugar mixture; beat just until dry ingredients are moistened. Pour mixture into a 9-inch square baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375° for 25 minutes.
Remove from oven, and sprinkle with the chocolate morsels. Let stand 3 minutes or until morsels soften; spread softened morsels over brownies, using a knife or metal spatula. Let cool on a wire rack.

A little about me...
I enjoy reading, dancing, outdoor activities and summer festivals. I also enjoy walking, water aerobics, going to movies or watching them at home. I like to cook when I have someone to share what I've made. Going out for supper is fun too! I value honesty in a relationship and am kind and friendly, but like quiet times also and think that its important to feel as comfortable being quiet around each other as well as having ease in conversation. Although my faith in God is important to me, I am not pushy about it and I believe that actions speak much louder than words or any religious affiliation.
About the one I'm looking for...
I value kindness, consideration and a good sense of humor and interesting conversation- Someone who enjoys life and wants to live it to the fullest. Life is too short to not learn new things and explore new places.. Giving and taking (good compromising) are essential to good relationships . It doesn't matter what your occupation is or was as long as you are a kind person. Retirement is a time to enjoy new pursuits and to activate old ones. I hope to retire at the end of June this year and do some more day trips and longer ones. A compatible person to enjoy movies, cooking or eating out, community theater, outside summer festivals and travel with would definitely be a wonderful addition to my life.
I'd just like to add...
I especially enjoy square, line, and ballroom dancing. However, you don't have to know how to dance for me to get along with you. I am a Christian, Episcopalian (Anglo-Catholic). But, I also visit other churches and enjoy learning about other religions. . I value a man who is kind, and can laugh at himself at times and even make me laugh! If you are looking for a kind lady who values honest, open communication and good conversation along with quiet times together I would like to hear from you.

From the Modern Library's new set of beautifully repackaged hardcover classics by William Faulkner--also available are Snopes, As I Lay Dying, The Sound and the Fury, Light in August, and Absalom, Absalom! William Faulkner was a master of the short story. Most of the pieces in this collection are drawn from the greatest period in his writing life, the fifteen or so years beginning in 1929, when he published The Sound and the Fury . They explore many of the themes found in the novels and feature characters of small-town Mississippi life that are uniquely Faulkner's. In "A Rose for Emily," the first of his stories to appear in a national magazine, a straightforward, neighborly narrator relates a tale of love, betrayal, and murder. The vicious family of the Snopes trilogy turns up in "Barn Burning," about a son's response to the activities of his arsonist father. And Jason and Caddy Compson, two other inhabitants of Faulkner's mythical Yoknapatawpha County, are witnesses to the terrorizing of a pregnant black laundress in "That Evening Sun." These and the other stories gathered here attest to the fact that Faulkner is, as Ralph Ellison so aptly noted, "the greatest artist the South has produced."

Fitz reopens 17 days after river's crest
The Fitz Casino & Hotel Tunica reopened May 27, four weeks after projected Mississippi River flooding caused a mandatory closing of all area casinos. The river crested May 10 at 47.8 feet (at Memphis).
"Our team members worked hard to keep the flood waters at bay and secure the casino from flooding," said general manager Chuck Miller. "We filled and stacked sandbags and built temporary dams and water barriers to protect it. The water came just inches from the doors, but we held strong and didn't let it in."

Editor, I would like to preface my comments with the statement that Fort Stewart/Hunter Army Airfield is a vital and virtually irreplaceable national strategic asset. If it is significantly reduced or closed, the loss would be a loss to the nation as a whole. There are very few places in the country like Fort Stewart/Hunter Army Airfield, where the transportation and training assets readily are available for immediate deployment to virtually anywhere in the world.

This is a story I shared with some of you a couple of years ago, but given the well-deserved tributes this week to our veterans, it seems an appropriate time to share it with all of you.

At the Department of Veterans Affairs, we have one of the most noble and inspiring missions in government. I accepted this job and joined this mission to better serve you - our veterans - and improve the delivery of the care and benefits you have earned. It is our privilege to serve you, and I have made clear that as we move forward as a department, we will judge the success of all our efforts against a single metric - the outcomes we provide for veterans.
Over the years, I've crossed paths with many who were extremely successful as well as some who were such miserable failures that, as Mama liked to say, they "ain't worth the breath they draw."
I recently saw a meme posted to a social-media site that said something along the lines of "Having children: Your way of showing the world you no longer intend to be on time - ever."
Editor, "Greater Good" is a point or ideology that has been defined, perceived and twisted. So what does this mean? I wonder if it's even fair to apply this concept because, at the end of the day, the definition is construed. Man is still making that determination.
I called Junior E. Lee and asked when he would have some post-election analysis to share with you. Junior, as you know, is general manager of the Yarbrough Worldwide Media and Pest Control Company, in Greater Garfield, Georgia, home of Round-or-Square Polls, whose motto is "You supply the dough and we will cook the results."

Over 50 locations in Liberty County have been cleaned up so far by these amazing helpers, who ranged in ages from 2 (yes, they had a little help from their parents) to 80. Several more groups have cleanups scheduled in the next three weeks. Rivers Alive is a statewide effort to preserve and protect our waterways in Georgia. Rivers Alive events also are part of the international efforts of The Ocean Conservancy.

In the last post we looked at some Critical code and decided that, albeit correct, it is convoluted. The error management path obfuscates the underlying logic. Also we have no way of knowing if a developer had thought about the error path or not when invoking a function. Let's tackle the latter concern first as it is easier. We want the developer to declaratively tag each method call with something that represents his intent about managing the Contingencies or Faults of the function. Moreover if the function has contingencies, we want to force the developer to manage them explicitly.

Questlove Interview
Questlove On The Best Song For Getting It On
Quick BioWhen NBC announced that legendary rap group The Roots would be joining Jimmy Fallon as the house band on his late-night venture, cries of "sell out" from hip-hop's cognoscenti could be heard echoing from Philly all the way to New York. Three years later, Late Night With Jimmy Fallon is a resounding success (Fallon was recently named one of our Top 49 Most Influential Men of the Year), and The Roots, led by drummer/DJ/producer Questlove, are the coolest band on late-night TV.
Between the five-day-a-week gig on Fallon -- where Questlove and The Roots have backed everyone from Bruce Springsteen to Beyonce -- all the hullabaloo that comes with the release of their 13th LP, Undun, and their work remixing the Captain Morgan anthem "To Life, Love & Loot" (it's available for free download from the Captain Morgan USA Facebook page), it's a wonder Questlove found the time to talk to us. But talk to us he did, and we asked the walking music encyclopedia to give us the perfect song for some classic situations that men might find themselves in. We also couldn't resist asking the Philly native about what's happening to his Eagles.

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon expressed "great shock" on Tuesday (February 11th) over reports of a massacre in the Syrian village of Maan.
A statement released by Ban's spokesman Martin Nesirky said the UN leader was disturbed by reports of killings in Maan last Sunday (February 9th).
"Dozens of civilians are said to have been brutally killed," the statement said.
"The Secretary-General condemns in the strongest terms all violence against civilians and calls for the perpetrators of this massacre, and all other crimes in Syria, to be brought to justice," it said.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said at least 25 people in the village were killed by Islamist fighters in Maan, in Hama province, on Sunday.
احمد سويدان
The UN condemned the massacres, but where is the penalty against the Syrian regime and Al-Assad? Where is the punishment? The Syrian regime tries to disappear from the scene completely and allow the Syrian delegation to Geneva 2 to be in the picture. Of course, this delegation is responsible for all crimes of the Syrian regime. I do not know whether they will reach an agreement or just allow the Syrian regime to continue its crimes as we see today.
منصور حسن
The US, which toppled two Islamic states with its armies and destroyed them, is now trying to say it supports people's choices and that it is their choice, even though it supported the coup in Venezuela before and for one reason only- it suited its interest. The main thing is that the US finds it hard to swallow after Egypt made it clear that it might move in another direction that will terrify Israel and that Egypt doesn't need the Americans. It wanted to make a statement that will show how angry and enraged it was. Even though I don't support the candidacy of Field Marshal al-Sisi, he seems to be a daring person who wants to do things for Egypt that we have been looking for for a long time. Show us your effort, here we strengthen you and wish you success, God willing, in governing this country which is full of great problems.
إسماعيل بدوي
The Syrian regime and ISIL are every day carrying out massacres in Syria and no one can predict how long this situation will continue. I wonder whether this is a wrath from Allah. Syrians are really good people and everyone is praying Allah to relieve them and rid them of this situation so that they could lead a decent and happy life in Syria, the country of goodness and wealth.
شادي قصي
It was not only one massacre, but there are many massacres every day. When the sun rises, we see the Syrian regime creating new massacres against the Syrians although I doubt that whoever runs the affairs in Syria now and carries out these massacres is not al-Assad alone. They are al-Assad's dear partners: Iran and Hezbollah. They are always the base from which al-Assad moves; this means that al-Assad takes orders from Khamene'i in Iran, and it is obvious that violence hits all the areas in Syria in order to convince everyone that al-Assad is staying and he would not accept any alternative to quit power, however the Geneva 2 decided! Consequently, I ask the Syrian coalition to retaliate soon on al-Assad and decide the situation for them.
حبيب نايف
Today, condemning is not enough, but we should try to punish the Syrian regime and ask the international criminal court to take action in this case. Today, Bashar al-Assad must be punished for all the mistakes he has made during the 3 years since the revolution. Why should we accept a thug and executioner to rule over the Syrian people? We should eradicate the Syrian regime.
احمد سويدان
What makes me really angry about this failure revolution is that despite the victims and the terrorism, many people hide in the holes of rats and call themselves revolutionists … I want to understand how would the Syrians agree to allow the terrorism to become the master of the situation there ?…it is known that El Assad is a first class terrorist … the opposition depends on Qaeda, which is known as a terrorist opposition par excellence … how will it be a successful revolution against the first terrorist, El Assad and the other one, the revolutionist or the terrorist opposition?More than the first one, El Assad … today, we should make statistics in Syria about whose terrorism is bigger than the other; the terrorist El Assad or the terrorist opposition that depends on Qaeda? … Miserable are the Syrians!
كاريمان كرم
Some people live in virtual reality and believe that the Syrian army is a monster that kills, destroys, rapes and commits horrible acts against its people during the Syrian crisis, despite the fact that it has always protected the Syrians for long years before this crisis. My dear, this virtual reality was created by the strongest mafia and the Zionist west. They managed to deceive the simple Arabs and made them fertile soil that can breed the terrorists, who go to fight the bloody and racist giant as planted in their minds. Therefore, those deceived people ended up considering Al-Qaeda, ISIS and the Nusra Front as Islamic groups and allies against the Syrian people. Please try to consider the reality, even for a moment. The Syrian army fights the branches of Al-Qaeda (ISIS, the Nusra Front and Islamic Front). The Syrian Coalition, represented by its wing in Syria, the Free Syrian Army, negotiates with ISIS and the other terrorist groups against the Syrian army. This fact will always be clear to all those who praise the terrorists and Takfiris, regardless of their attempts to hide it or alter the truth. The Syrian army will continue shelling the terrorists and anyone who takes up arms against the Syrian army. Nevertheless, it will always be keen on protecting the lives of the innocent Syrian civilians who are used as shields by the terrorists. If the army had not cared about the lives of the civilians, it would have leveled old Homs over the heads of the people there.

Allah is the Greatest. May Allah grant victory and pride to the monotheist jihadists in Syria against Bashar, the treacherous traitor of Iran. There are many true men in Syria. True creed and religion lie in real Syrians and not in those who claim to be Muslims.
احمد عبد الرسول
1 – We have never seen one of corrupt Bashar or his father's warplanes bombarding Israel. However, the Russian-made aircrafts of Assad have been bombing Damascus, Aleppo, Homs and all the Syrian cities and villages during the day and the night for three years. 2 – The warplanes of Bashar Assad are bombing randomly without making any distinction. They aim to kill while the media of corrupt Bashar are gossiping about reluctance and resistance. On the other hand, his Shabiha are justifying his crimes insolently. 3 – Indeed, corrupt Bashar and his Shabiha have used all the means and methods of terrorism and crimes against the Syrians. They have even invented new kinds of terrorism and criminality against Syrians while the entire world is watching. 4 – "The corrupt family" stands for a continuous bloody rule of 40 years. They also have a long history of treachery, treason and continuous terrorism.

If you feel like Anton Chekhov on his deathbed and "haven't had champagne for a long time," then perhaps this Saturday you can change that by attending the Loft's annual Dead Writers Party. At the event, taking place at Kieran's Irish Pub, you'll be in the good company of esoteric spirits like James Joyce, William Butler Yeats, and George Bernard Shaw. Party-goers are encouraged to dress as their favorite dead writer, and there is no limit to how many ladies may dress up as Sylvia Plath (but please don't forget about the likes of Flannery O'Connor, Stevie Smith, and Dorothy Parker). In addition to looking the part, attendees who feel inspired to read a selected work from the literary catalog of their chosen dead author are urged to do so. Please do keep in mind that this is a child-friendly event, so save your Marquis De Sade costumes for your neighbor's party, and do your best not to channel Dylan Thomas, as 18 whiskey shots is too many.

As a recumbent bike rider, I am always on the lookout for a foolproof mounting system for GPS, MP3, and Smartphone devices. Too many times I have hit a bump only to have one or more of my devices go flying, usually to its ultimate demise. Well, I have found a great solution in the form of Quadlock by Annex of Australia. Unfortunately, it only works with iPhones and iPod touch.
The kit comes with four pieces. The main device holder is made of sturdy black plastic into which the iPhone or iPod touch snaps securely. And, when I say securely, I mean securely. It is difficult to pry out the device with a crowbar. So, it's not likely that it will pop out when you hit a bump.

Lawyer, newspaper contributor says more positive comments to his letters than negative ones.
He was keen to say that he expected the negative comments, he agreed with me however that Jamaica is not at the same place it used to be on GLBTQ issues. He noted his most recent letter to the Jamaica Observer's editor where the comments where negative and he doesn't mind using his real name and not a pseudonym as he wants to stand up for something and has sufficiently prepared himself although not explaining how for any eventualities. He doesn't think he is irresponsible in what he is doing as well and he feels he is at a point where he is not scared about repercussions as he has sons and he wants to make a difference for them.
He is presently organizing a "Walk for Tolerance" public event to be held somewhere in Western Jamaica on April 7th 2010, 11am, email him at firstname.lastname@example.com. He says he has the support of JFLAG and other international GLBTQ rights groups who will be present with banners to promote and ask for tolerance. I quizzed him about the safety issues regarding this event given the sensitivities and outright intolerance that exists here he said if members of the public asked what was afoot he would explain what is actually occurring. He did explain he took the necessary steps in securing the appropriate police permits event though said permits conveniently went missing twice before he finally got the relevant approvals from the police hierarchy. The event should last for an hour or so.
"This is history in the making, I don't know how many people appreciate that" …………………….. "For all that we have suffered and all that we have been through we need to come together to recognize the move in this psychological moment in time,"
"Cowards don't rule the world, I am not going to be a coward anymore, I hope we have some persons who are willing to be like me, it's not for everybody but definitely it's going to happen that's the bottom line"
"Its not like I am out there gallivanting in front of peoples faces, I am addressing them on what I consider academic and intellectual points." He said
He says he is angry at how the media presents the "stupidness being passed as rational discourse" he agreed that it's all done to sell papers and he continued that it feeds into the country's intolerance.
He continued to say that persons should be stand up and be counted, he said he didn't understand how hiding works and we should recognize the change happening in Jamaica. He made reference to the UN AIDS representatives comments that he doesn't understand what the issues are here in Jamaica as in Africa gays are being killed suggesting the situation there is rather worse than here. I hope that the walk goes well as I will try to attend as well although I am all the way on the other end of the island. This is refreshing however to see advocacy at this personal level outside the skewed system we have here.
He hinted to my case of some 13 years ago before a JFLAG existed and questioned whether if many persons would go through that, my case of course of my being arrested on a main road by police and charged for buggery although no sexual activity took place. The case was subsequently adjourned sine die as the prosecution couldn't' prove their point and stopped coming to court event though myself and my other three co-accused made sure we were present at every court mention date.
He never mentioned if there would be any media campaign to support the walk but lets watch this one folks to see how it turns out, I do hope something positive emerges out of this move by a one man advocate, sometime it takes only one to start the thrust.
Peace and tolerance
Jamaica wants gays dead (Observer Letter)
From all indications, it is clear that the Jamaican Parliament wants gays dead.
Recently, the executive director of UNAIDS, Michel Sidibe, reminded the world that in Jamaica - a country with anti-sodomy laws - there is a 32 per cent HIV prevalence among men who have sex with men (MSM) versus 1.6 per cent in the general population.
While in Cuba, Suriname, the Bahamas and the Dominican Republic, countries without such legislation, the HIV prevalence in MSM ranges from one to eight per cent.
In the face of such damning evidence, this government, with the full complicity of the Opposition, entrenched the nation's anti-sodomy laws through the 2009 Sexual Offences Act which maintained the ban against private consensual adult male sex.
The short-sighted members of parliament who voted in favour of this shameful piece of legislation failed to realise that while they were busy playing word games about what constitutes private consensual adult sex (none of their business), they were simultaneously trampling on the privacy rights of citizens and sowing the seeds of a public health disaster.
Thanks to the anti-sodomy laws present in 11 Caribbean countries, the region now has the world's second highest HIV prevalence rate after sub-Saharan Africa, and the HIV/AIDS epidemic is now rapidly spreading to the heterosexual community, affecting many women and children.
As the saying goes, when you dig a hole for someone, dig two. With the legendary and celebrated promiscuity of some of our male politicians, I suspect it is only a matter of time before we hear that a few of them have been caught by this trap they set to catch gays.

Charter of Rights' Bill's passage may be delayed by six months
The Prime Minister Bruce Golding on his feet in parliament on Wednesday March 17th said that the Charter of Rights Bill that was debated on and the respected recommendations accepted may be delayed by six months. The Charter which is to replace section 3 of the constitution has been on and off the roster for over twenty years, Mr. Golding says he is disappointed the legislation has not been passed. The conscience vote taken on the death penalty has further delayed its passage.
Parliament is to be parouged shortly, the legislation and further amendments may be necessary the Prime Minister said and may require a further six months for debate between the houses and sides before final passage so it may not pass during this legislative year. The sticky issue of the death penalty is said to be the main issue that's holding up the passage.
Let's not forget that the GLTBQ issues were brushed over via an invented discussion on gay marriage and the government's refusal to accede to such marriage request although no such requests were made. Of course as it turned out it was nothing more than a front by the administration to sure up their new small majority at the time as they had just came into office just over a year at the time of the debate. Also using the strength of the "Not in my Cabinet" comment made on The BBC Hard talk interview plus the outburst by the renegade Member of Parliament Ernie Smith making negative comments about gays who by the way he has now found himself being satirically questioned by public commentators as to his own sexuality.
You may find other related posts and selected parliamentary presentations on this blog and on Gay Jamaica Watch under the tabs Charter of Rights. Meanwhile the Sexual Offences Bill is also at a standstill (see tabs as well on Sexual Offences Bill) after it was debated in the upper house. In retrospect one wonders if the fast tracking of both pieces of legislation at the time were done to present an image of a government doing something about the "gay problem" chiefly the misconceptions about paedophilia as we know we have heard utterances to the effect that suggests that gay men in particular are interested in getting into boys pants. We now therefore have a Charter that doesn't recognize GLTBQ people as worthwhile citizens of Jamaica and doesn't see discrimination in relation to sexual orientation were wiped out from the original draft document at the behest of the Lawyers Christian Fellowship lead by Shirley Richards (Atty-At-Law) and a key religious homophobe Reverend Al Miller who in recent times has found himself embroiled in all kinds of political platforms the most recent being the United States request for Dudus Coke extradition issue where he became tongue tied in a war of words between those for and against honoring the request.
Readers please we must follow these issues closely as they relate to our rights as citizens and personal freedoms. Of note the Abortion Bill was mentioned in Parliament a week ago where it was stuck at the point of whether to allow abortion for rape victims who become pregnant and are at over twenty two weeks of gestation. This to me has implications for rape victims in general but lesbian, bisexual and those of other orientations rape victims in particular of which we have seen a dramatic increase since 2008 with one known case of "Corrective Rape" that went to trial where the culprit was found guilty and will serve a total of 29 years as he has previous charges he was on bail when he was apprehended. Notice the silence from JFLAG on these issues anyone?
The sensitivities involved here should be of concern as the police has not fully adjusted its customer service stance towards GLTBQ people. However the woman who testified in the above mentioned matter said she was treated fairly by the staff at the rape unit now named CISOCA Center for Investigation for Sexual Offences and Child Abuse. So there is hope yet as some improvements are evident. Maybe I am the only gay male blogger who really considers this issue towards our lesbian sisters an important one as we are all one despite our gender, where is the tolerance even amongst ourselves?
Think on these things.

Calls for Tourism Boycotts are Nonsensical at This Time
(2014 protests New York)
Calling for boycotts by overseas based Jamaican advocates who for the most part are not in touch with our present realities in a real way and do not understand the implications of such calls can only seek to make matters worse than assisting in the struggle, we must learn from, the present economic climate of austerity & tense calm makes it even more sensible that persons be cautious, will these groups assist when there is fallout?, previous experiences from such calls made in 2008 and 2009 and the near diplomatic nightmare that missed us; especially owing to the fact that many of the victims used in the public advocacy of violence were not actual homophobic cases which just makes the ethics of advocacy far less credible than it ought to be.

Violence and venom force gay Jamaicans to hide
Violence and venom force gay Jamaicans to hide a 2009 Word focus report where the history of the major explosion of homeless MSM occurred and references to the party DVD that was leaked to the bootleg market which exposed many unsuspecting patrons to the public (3:59), also the caustic remarks made by former member of Parliament in the then JLP administration. The agencies at the time were also highlighted and the homo negative and homophobic violence met by ordinary Jamaican same gender loving men. The late founder of the CVC, former ED of JASL and JFLAG Dr. Robert Carr was also interviewed. At 4:42 that MSM was still homeless to 2012 but has managed to eek out a living but being ever so cautious as his face is recognizable from the exposed party DVD, he has been slowly making his way to recovery despite the very slow pace
Thanks for your Donations
thank you for your donations via Paypal in helping to keep this blog going, my limited frontline community work, temporary shelter assistance at my home and related costs. Please continue to support me and my allies in this venture that has now become a full time activity. When I first started blogging in late 2007 it was just as a pass time to highlight GLBTQ issues in Jamaica under then JFLAG's blogspot page but now clearly there is a need for more forumatic activity which I want to continue to play my part while raising more real life issues pertinent to us.
Activities & Plans: ongoing and future
- To continue this venture towards website development with an E-zine focus
- Work with other Non Governmental organizations old and new towards similar focus and objectives
- To find common ground on issues affecting GLBTQ and straight friendly persons in Jamaica towards tolerance and harmony
- Exposing homophobic activities and suggesting corrective solutions
- To formalise GLBTQ Jamaica's activities in the long term
- Continuing discussion on issues affecting GLBTQ people in Jamaica and elsewhere
- Welcoming, examining and implemeting suggestions and ideas from you the viewing public
- Present issues on HIV/AIDS related matters in a timely and accurate manner
- Assist where possible victims of homophobic violence and abuse financially, temporary shelter(my home) and otherwise
- Track human rights issues in general with a view to support for ALL

What to do if you are attacked (News You Can Use)
Try to reason with the attacker: Establish communication with the person. This takes a lot of courage. However, a conversation may change the intention of an attacker.
Do not try anything foolish: If you know outmanoeuvring the attacker is impossible, do not try it.
Do not appear to be afraid: Look the attacker in the eye and demonstrate that you are not fearful.
This may have a psychological effect on the individual.

I absolutely love my new sink! Bought in the mocha color and it goes beautifully with my countertops! It was a great value, being much less expensive than other brands and just as nice!
Came with a crack directly between the two sinks. Luckily my installer saw crack when we took it out of the box. I am in possession of new granite prepared specifically for this sink - but no sink. It is back-ordered and a possibility exists that I won't be able to get a replacement. The sink itself is beautiful. My first disappointment with Overstock after years of many, many, happy purchases.
very happy I bought this. it arrived promptly, was well packaged, and looks great.

Washington, DC - A novel technology developed through a joint government and industry venture has demonstrated significant cost and production benefits for lower-producing wells, called "stripper wells," while contributing to the security of the nation's oil and gas supplies.
Stripper wells produce oil and gas at the low rates of less than 10 barrels per day of oil or 60,000 cubic feet per day of natural gas. Tapping into additional oil and gas supplies within the nation's stripper wells can be an important contributor to U.S. energy security.
Some 80 percent of U.S. oil wells are now classified as marginal wells. Because these wells produce 860,000 barrels of oil per day (nearly 20 percent of U.S. production) and the nation's natural gas stripper wells produce 1.5 trillion cubic feet of gas per year (about 8 percent of U.S. production), any increase in their production rates or decrease in related costs serves as a boon to the nation's supply of energy.
Vortex Flow LLC developed the new SX tool and, to date, has deployed it in more than 200 stripper well operations across the country, increasing production and decreasing maintenance costs.
Some "real-life" successes of the Vortex technology include the following:
What is so inherently special about the Vortex tool that facilitates enhanced production and greater cost effectiveness in stripper wells?
Vortex Flow based its SX tool -- tubelike devices with spool connectors inserted into a well -- on breakthroughs in fluid dynamics that provide a way for an operator to address the turbulence and disorganization of liquids and gases when they flow through a pipe. The SX tool converts the turbulent, disorganized flow into an organized "vortex" flow that accelerates the velocity of water used in the process and reduces the friction that causes the pressure to drop as fluids move through a pipe. By doing so at both surface and subsurface levels, the SX tool helps to reduce wear and tear on oil and gas pipelines while increasing production and reducing costs. At current gas prices, the SX tool has been shown to pay for itself within 60 days. Vortex Flow perfected its tool during testing at DOE's Rocky Mountain Oilfield Testing Center in Casper, Wyoming.
NETL researchers have been actively identifying wells that prematurely decline to stripper well status and have been developing technologies that result in increased production, longer well life, and more efficient and cost-effective recovery of remaining oil and gas in those wells.
Since the majority of stripper well owners are small, independent operators, NETL organized the Stripper Well Consortium to leverage the resources of those operators to develop applicable technologies.

I choose the med/dark for my medium skin tone.It gives me a bit of color and looks so soft and natural.Its a bit dewy so I lightly powdered in the T-Zone.This suited my yellow undertones and i like the unmade up look so this suits me fine.I will use this when I need less coverage.
Of the 3 BB Creams I've tried so far (Garnier, Maybelline + this one), this one is by far the best. Please note I have very oily, acne prone skin. The Garnier one left my skin looking like an oil field within 20 mins and the Maybelline one, although I loved the feel and consistency of it, broke me out. This one is kindof like a tinted moisturizer but doesn't look overly oily when set. The light shade matches my skin pretty well right now but not sure if it will still when my slight tan dissapears. Would recommend above the other two for oily skinned girls.

I really like this BB cream. Recently a clerk at Shopper's asked me if I wanted the SPF version, since Marcelle has indeed made one, but I actually said no because SPF always breaks me out. I use sesame seed oil as a low but effective SPF, and make sure to put on a hat after a while in the sun.
I've been using their original non SPF version for two months now, and it's really nice. It goes on smoothly, never looks dry or cakey, and blends easily. It lasts a long time; at the end of a long day it's held up pretty well, although I wouldn't say it's a 16-18 hour makeup. If I were to go out again at night, I'd spritz my face and touch it up again. It lasts a good 10 hours, however. It's actually about a medium coverage, and in my opinion, better than a tinted moisturizer. It feels light and blendable, has a dewiness like a tinted moisturizer yet it's more like a "go to" foundation for everyday.
Some reviewers say it's not enough coverage for them for work. I wear it to work all the time along with my concealer on the T zone, and powder. If I were going to a big event, I'd like to try Marcelle Cream to Powder along with it to see how that holds up. Marcelle seems a great company for people prone to acne, and I like how their stuff has made me confident that I'm not going to break out or feel itchy and uncomfortable wearing it. The only reason I took off a lippie is because I'd like a makeup to last me 24 hours and still look as good as newly applied, but I mean, c'mon!

Ok so as a korean, ive tried alot of different bb cream products. and so far this has been my favorite. however there r pros and cons. To start off, this bb cream is the only bb cream that i used thats close to my skin tone. alot of the korean brands r either too light or too grey for my liking...i also think that it has a pretty good coverage. you need to know that bb creams are not meant for u if u hav clearly visible acne. bb creams r suppose to give u that natural looking glow so it works best if u hav minimal blemishes. My skin does get a lil oily n shiny so i need to set this with powder.....i also dont like how theres no spf in this product. however, overall, its a good product. didnt break me out so so pretty happy bout that :)
I think this is the closest to a HG foundation so far for me. I'v tried tons. So far this one hasn't break me out even if i wear it for over 12 hours. Staying power is good. I do get oily as the day goes on but it does stay on. It has no known cancerous ingredients.
The coverage is in between light and medium. It covers some redness and veins and such, but not pimple scars. I love the feel. Very light and clean.
No crazy scent.

I was at SDM and I was debating on which brand of BB creams to buy. I was going to purchase the Garnier brand since it was cheaper but the cosmetician suggested that I purchase the Marcelle kind since it is non-comedegenic and makes your skin less oily then the Garnier. She tested it out on my skin and I purchased the medium to dark shade. When I first put it on, it looks light but after it gets blended into my skin, my skin looks much better. The only think I hate about this product is the nasty smell. If it wasn't for the smell and if it had SPF in it I would definitely repurchase this again.

This product works very well, but unfortunately it is too dark for my fair skin, as a result I have not repurchased this mascara.
This product improved my skin over time so I love it. I've been using it steady and my skin looks even and brighter. Acne scars totally faded and skin has much smoother texture. I have oily skin so I have to finish it with a light dusting of powder but it's gotten my skin to the point where I don't need concealer. I think for $16.99 and optimum points from shoppers drug mart, it's worth a try. If you don't like it, you can cocktail it with another foundation or BB cream which I've done when I'm more tanned and the light doesn't mach as well. I don't think I'll ever use foundation again.

Marcelle is a (lower) mid-range makeup company in Canada. I never purchase anything from Marcelle in the past. Their BB cream was a first for me. I chose the lightest shade (i'm NC25-30 during summer) I think it is a pretty good match. it even out my skin, it brighten the skin and the staying power is pretty good. It is medium to light coverage, the pumps dispense the right amount of products. It doesn't dry up the skin. The downfall, NO SPF!!! and you have to be careful when you use the pump, sometimes the product goes everywhere.
I bought both this and the garnier bb cream at the same time, and have been using them both on and off for the last few months. Both are " light to medium" shade, and Marcelle was about 10 dollars more than the garnier. The differences in these creams are significant. I am really loving this cream, and really hating the garnier one (it is way too pink for my skin tone and immediately makes me feel and look greasy when I don't normally have oily skin). I set this cream with a loose powder and it looks great for hours.
beautiful, sheer coverage and dewy finish
covers my acne scars and slight imperfections without looking cakey
leaves my skin smooth and soft
yellow undertones that match my skin perfectly
the pump is very temperamental and sometimes clogs/ squirts in all directions
won't cover any significant blemishes ( but that's what concealer is for... not a bb cream)

Logan received over 72 percent of the vote in Walk of Fame balloting. Voters include Wisconsin sports reporters and Brewers executives.
Logan says it's a very special honor for a New York boy to be honored in the great city of Milwaukee.
Other inductees to the Walk of Fame include Hank Aaron, Paul Molitor and Robin Yount.
