WEDNESDAY, March 12, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Older men may gain a boost physically, mentally and socially if they eat a diet rich in meat and fish, according to a new study from Japan.
This study of more than 1,000 older adults suggested that men who ate the most meat and fish reduced their odds of mental and physical decline by 39 percent, compared with men who ate the least animal protein.
But the same association was not seen in women. Nor were the same benefits linked to proteins from plants, the researchers found.
The study doesn't actually prove that eating meat and fish caused the men's health improvements, or that low animal protein intake contributes to early decline, however.
"It is an observational study that simply shows a relationship between protein and functional decline. It does not prove cause and effect," said Lona Sandon, an assistant professor of clinical nutrition at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas.
"Also, the study was conducted in Japanese men and women, not people living in the U.S.," she added. Because it is such a specific study population, the results may not apply to people elsewhere, Sandon pointed out.
Still, research indicates adequate protein intake is important as people age, Sandon noted. The ability to process protein may decline in old age. As a result, protein requirements may increase, the study suggested.
"High-quality protein can help preserve lean muscle that is lost with aging and can affect daily functioning," Sandon said. And higher-quality proteins found in animal sources are more easily used by the body than plant sources.
The report was published in the March 13 issue of the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society.
For the study, a research team led by Megumi Tsubota-Utsugi, from the National Institute of Health and Nutrition in Tokyo, evaluated questionnaires from 1,007 men and women whose average age was 67.
Participants were asked about their diet, including animal protein intake, at the start of the study and seven years later.
Depending on how much meat and fish they ate, participants were divided into four groups. They were also tested on the social and intellectual aspects of their lives.
At the end of the study, about one-quarter of participants reported declines in thinking and other skills. But men who ate the most meat and fish decreased their risk of mental and physical decline by 39 percent, compared with men who ate the least animal protein, the researchers found.
Connie Diekman, director of nutrition at Washington University in St. Louis, thinks the study has some serious limitations.
She noted that food information was assessed only twice in seven years, portions were not carefully assessed, and the intensity of exercise -- an important factor in building muscle -- was not accounted for.
Even so, "This study says to me that we need to keep adequate amounts of protein and a good diversity of protein sources, especially fish, throughout our life," Diekman said.
As to why women didn't see similar benefits, Diekman isn't sure.
"It's hard to say, but since men have more muscle mass to start with, it may be that animal protein allows for overall better performance. But this would be one area that requires more study," she noted.
Another expert issued a different caution. The study "does not give you license to run to the nearest burger joint thinking you are saving your brain," said Samantha Heller, a senior clinical nutritionist at NYU Langone Medical Center in New York City.
In general, it is not uncommon for older people to consume less protein and fewer calories than they need to stem the loss of muscle mass and important body fluids, she explained. Losing muscle mass affects quality of life, organ health and the immune system.
"Overloading protein, however, is not the answer either, since as we get older our kidneys and other organs may not be able to handle excessive amounts of protein," Heller said. Also, a diet laden with red and processed meat is associated with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, certain cancers and dementia, she explained.
"We want to be sure our aging population is eating a balanced, healthy diet replete with adequate fluids and healthy sources of protein, including fish, chicken, legumes and nuts," Heller said.

Call to action - contact council members to support a safer, saner Peachtree Road
Peachtree Road is overdue for an overhaul. A proposal from the Buckhead CID could transform it into a safer, saner street for all modes of travel. Yet some long-time residents like those pictured below (image credit: Buckhead View) are opposed to the project on the grounds they believe it will push more cars onto neighborhood streets.
Atlanta City Council members representing the district are hearing from them. Some have even contacted the Governor! Will they hear from you???
Please contact at-large council member Mary Norwood (email, twitter) to ask for her support. She's a strong neighborhood advocate so let her know how this will benefit the neighborhoods. Currently, she is on record as opposing the project.
Combined with neighborhood traffic calming measures, this project represents the best hope for taming Peachtree Road.
Here's why:
1. This is a safety project, first and foremost. The unsafe layout of this section of Peachtree Road has created a free-for-all with too many drivers changing lanes suddenly, slamming on brakes for turning cars, and not respecting people on foot or on bike. It's out of control. One resident we spoke with referred to it as "the Wild West." More people from other parts of the city would patronize the many wonderful businesses of Peachtree Road if they were easier to get to and if the corridor provided more transportation options.
2. As the established population in this area ages, taming the traffic becomes increasingly important to their wellbeing. Reducing the number of lanes would allow seniors to safely cross Peachtree on foot, giving them independence even after they stop driving. And adding bike lanes will make traffic patterns more predictable, with fewer bicyclists popping up in front of them suddenly. We hear from many drivers who request bike lanes for this reason.
3. The bike lanes will be helpful to those who currently have to bike on Peachtree Road due to the lack of alternatives, including retail workers and students - people who don't often attend public meetings or contact their council members.
Let's help change Peachtree for the better!

We have casual satellite get-togethers in various parts of Los Angeles including Orange County; we have a seminar most months, and a general meeting, typically a panel discussion, about a writing-related topic.
Many of our members are published professional writers or are professional writers of other sorts, while others are working on breaking into the professional writing scene. Some write books, others write for magazines, others do public relations....
If you're a writer in the Los Angeles area or Southern California, at any level of your writing career, writing in any genre, we invite you to come check us out.
We'll meet for no-host cocktails in the gorgeous Rendezvous Court or take an escorted tour of this historic hotel (optional), including the elegant ballrooms and indoor pool.

Written essays have always been a creative way to express views and test the waters for larger pieces. Many have become the framework for much of social communication. Now, with the advent of the digital age, essays have taken on a new and in some ways bolder life. Not only are they published in magazines and compilations, but the essay also lives in blogs and other social media.

The self-publishing model has changed a great deal over the last three years, creating a wonderful open door for writers to see their name on a published book. Unfortunately, most aspiring authors make detrimental mistakes in bringing their books to fruition and publishing them, ultimately diminishing—rather than solidifying—their credibility.
Stacey Aaronson will not only share the missteps most people make when embarking on self-publishing and impart the essentials you must know to become a self-published author with excellence and marketability.
Presenter Stacey Aaronson is the "Fulfiller of Publishing Dreams" and founder of The Book Doctor Is In, is a professional book doctor who takes self-publishing authors by the hand and transforms their manuscripts into the books they've dreamed of.

Dear IWOSC Members and Friends,
IWOSC suffered a terrible loss with the sudden passing of our longtime treasurer, supporter and friend, Pam Leven, on December 19. Her generosity, intelligence and beautiful spirit made her a unique force of nature. She touched many lives in an exceptional way. Pam was such a vital part of the group and meant so much to so many of us.
Rather than hold a regular meeting in January, we had a celebration of Pam Leven's life, open to all who knew and loved Pam.
Sunday, April 27
Pam's bike held a memorial ride for her, riding in Palos Verdes, a favorite locale of Pam's on the weekly "Triple Dipper" rides. It included a lunch to reminisce about Pam and recall happy times with her in the club. All of Pam's friends were invited to join riders at the lunch.

Rodney Glen King (April 2, 1965 – June 17, 2012) was an American construction worker who became nationally known after being beaten by Los Angeles police officers, following a high-speed car chase on March 3, 1991. A local witness, George Holliday, videotaped much of it from his balcony.
The footage shows five officers surrounding King, several of them striking him repeatedly, while other officers stood by. Part of the footage was aired around the world, inflaming outrage in cities where racial tension was high, and raising public concern about police treatment of minorities.
Four officers were charged with assault with a deadly weapon and use of excessive force. Three were acquitted of all charges. The jury acquitted the fourth of assault with a deadly weapon, but failed to reach a verdict on the use of excessive force. The jury deadlocked at 8-4 in favor of acquittal at the state level.
The acquittals are generally considered to have triggered the 1992 Los Angeles riots, in which 53 people were killed and over two thousand were injured, ending only when the military was called in.
The acquittals also led to the federal government's obtaining grand jury indictments for violations of King's civil rights. The trial of the four in a federal district court ended on April 16, 1993, with two of the officers being found guilty and subsequently imprisoned. The other two were acquitted again.
Rodney Glen King was born in Sacramento, California, on April 2, 1965, to Ronald King and Odessa King. He and his four siblings grew up in Altadena, California.[3][4] King's father, Ronald King, died in 1984[5] at the age of 42.[4]
In November 1989, King robbed a store in Monterey Park, California. He threatened to hit the Korean store owner with an iron bar he was carrying, then hit him with a pole. King stole two hundred dollars in cash during the robbery and was caught, convicted, and sentenced to two years of imprisonment, then released after serving one year of the sentence.[4]
King had three daughters: one by Carmen Simpson, when he was a teenager, and one by each of his two wives. Both of King's marriages, to Danetta Lyles and Crystal Waters, ended in divorce.[5][6]
On the night of March 3, 1991, King and two passengers, Bryant Allen and Freddie Helms, were driving west on the Foothill Freeway (Interstate 210) in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles. Prior to driving on the Foothill Freeway, the three men had spent the night watching a basketball game and drinking at a friend's house in Los Angeles.[7] Five hours after the incident, King's blood-alcohol level was found to be slightly below the legal limit, implying his blood alcohol level may have fallen from 0.19 while he was driving, which is more than twice the legal driving limit in California.[8] At 12:30 am, Officers Tim and Melanie Singer, husband-and-wife members of the California Highway Patrol, noticed King's car speeding on the freeway. The officers pursued King, and the pursuit attained high speeds, while King refused to pull over.[9][10] King would later admit he attempted to outrun the police at dangerously high speeds because a charge of driving under the influence would violate his parole for a previous robbery conviction.[11]
King exited the freeway and the pursuit continued through residential surface streets, at speeds ranging from 55 to 80 miles per hour.[12][13] By this point, several police cars and a police helicopter had joined the pursuit. After approximately eight miles, officers cornered King in his car at the corner of Foothill Boulevard and Osborne Street (34°16′34″N 118°22′42″W / 34.276114°N 118.378239°W). The first five LAPD officers to arrive at the scene were Stacey Koon, Laurence Powell, Timothy Wind, Theodore Briseno, and Rolando Solano.
Officer Tim Singer ordered King and his two passengers to exit the vehicle and lie face down on the ground. King's two passengers complied and were taken into custody without incident.[7] King remained in the car. When he finally did emerge, he acted bizarrely, giggling, patting the ground, and waving to the police helicopter overhead.[13] King then grabbed his buttocks which Officer Melanie Singer took to mean King reaching for a weapon.[14] She drew her pistol and pointed it at King, ordering him to lie on the ground. Singer approached, gun drawn, preparing to effect an arrest.
At that point LAPD Sergeant Stacey Koon, the ranking officer at the scene, told Singer that LAPD was taking tactical command of the situation. He ordered all officers to holster their weapons.[citation needed] LAPD officers are taught not to approach a suspect with a gun drawn, as there is a risk that a suspect may gain control of it if an officer gets too close.[15] Koon then ordered the four other LAPD officers at the scene—Briseno, Powell, Solano, and Wind—to subdue and handcuff King using a technique called a "swarm." This involves multiple officers grabbing a suspect with empty hands, in order to quickly overcome potential resistance. As four officers attempted to restrain King, King resisted, standing to remove Officers Powell and Briseno from his back. The officers later testified that they believed King was under the influence of the dissociative drug phencyclidine (PCP),[16] although King's toxicology tested negative for the drug.[17]
After King was struck by Koon's Taser the second time is the approximate start of the George Holliday videotape of the incident. In the tape, King is seen on the ground. He rises and rushes toward Powell and what was argued in court as either to attack Powell or to flee but regardless King and Powell both collided in the rush.[18] Taser wire can be seen on King's body. Officer Powell strikes King with his baton, and King is knocked to the ground.[19] Powell strikes King several more times with his baton. Briseno moves in, attempting to stop Powell from striking again, and Powell stands back. Koon reportedly said, "That's enough." King then rises again, to his knees; Powell and Wind are then seen hitting King with their batons.[20]
Koon acknowledged ordering the continued use of batons, directing Powell and Wind to strike King with "power strokes." According to Koon, Powell and Wind used "bursts of power strokes, then backed off." In the videotape, King continues to try to stand again. Koon orders the officers to "hit his joints, hit the wrists, hit his elbows, hit his knees, hit his ankles."[20] Officers Wind, Briseno, and Powell attempted numerous baton strikes on King resulting in some misses but with 33 blows hitting King, plus six kicks. The officers again "swarm" King but this time a total of eight officers are involved in the swarm. King is then placed in handcuffs and cordcuffs, restraining his arms and legs. King is dragged on his abdomen to the side of the road to await the arrival of emergency medical rescue.[20]
George Holliday's videotape of the incident was shot from his apartment near the intersection of Foothill Blvd and Osborne St. in Lake View Terrace. Two days later Holliday contacted the police about his videotape of the incident. He then went to KTLA television with his videotape, which broadcast it in its entirety.[21] The footage became an instant media sensation. Portions of it were aired numerous times, and it "turned what would otherwise have been a violent, but soon forgotten, encounter between the Los Angeles police and an uncooperative suspect into one of the most widely watched and discussed incidents of its kind."[22]
The Holliday video of the Rodney King arrest is a fairly early example of modern sousveillance, where private citizens, assisted by increasingly sophisticated, affordable video equipment, record significant, sometimes historical events. Several "copwatch" organizations subsequently appeared throughout the United States to safeguard against police abuse, including an umbrella group, October 22 Coalition to Stop Police Brutality.[23]
King was immediately taken to Pacifica Hospital after his arrest, where he was shown to have suffered a fractured facial bone, a broken right ankle, and multiple bruises and lacerations.[24] In a negligence claim filed with the city, King alleged he had suffered "11 skull fractures, permanent brain damage, broken [bones and teeth], kidney damage [and] emotional and physical trauma".[25] Blood and urine samples taken from King five hours after his arrest showed that he would have been intoxicated under California law at the time of his arrest. The tests also showed traces of marijuana (26 ng/ml), but no indication of any other illegal drug.[25] Pacifica Hospital nurses reported that the officers who accompanied King (including Wind) openly joked and bragged about the number of times King had been hit.[26] King sued the city and a jury awarded him $3.8 million as well as $1.7 million in attorney's fees.[27] Charges against King for driving while intoxicated and evading arrest were never pursued.[28]
The Los Angeles district attorney charged officers Koon, Powell, Briseno and Wind with use of excessive force. Sergeant Koon, while he did not strike King, only having deployed the Taser was, as the supervisory officer at the scene, charged with "willfully permitting and failing to take action to stop the unlawful assault".
The California Court of Appeals removed the initial judge, Bernard Kamins, after it was proved Kamins told prosecutors, "You can trust me." The Court also granted a change of venue to the city of Simi Valley in neighboring Ventura County, citing potential contamination due to saturated media coverage.
Though few people at first considered race an important factor in the case, including Rodney King's attorney, Steven Lerman, the sensitizing effect of the Holliday videotape was at the time stirring deep resentment in Los Angeles, as well as other major cities in the United States. The officers' jury consisted of Ventura County residents: ten white; one Latino; one Asian. Lead prosecutor Terry White was African American. On April 29, 1992, the jury acquitted three of the officers, but could not agree on one of the charges against Powell.[7]
Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley said, "The jury's verdict will not blind us to what we saw on that videotape. The men who beat Rodney King do not deserve to wear the uniform of the LAPD."[29] President George H. W. Bush said, "Viewed from outside the trial, it was hard to understand how the verdict could possibly square with the video. Those civil rights leaders with whom I met were stunned. And so was I and so was Barbara and so were my kids."[30]
The acquittals are considered to have triggered the Los Angeles riots of 1992. By the time the police, the U.S. Army, Marines and National Guard restored order, the riots had caused 53 deaths, 2,383 injuries, more than 7,000 fires, damage to 3,100 businesses, and nearly $1 billion in financial losses. Smaller riots occurred in other cities such as San Francisco, Las Vegas in neighboring Nevada and as far east as Atlanta, Georgia. A minor riot erupted on Yonge St., in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, as a result of the acquittals.
During the riots, King appeared on television and offered what would later be his famous plea, "Can we all get along?"[31]
|This section needs additional citations for verification. (July 2013)
After the acquittals and the riots, the United States Department of Justice sought indictments for violations of King's civil rights. "On May 7, federal prosecutors began presenting evidence to a Los Angeles [federal] grand jury. On August 4, the grand jury returned indictments against the three officers for '...willfully and intentionally using unreasonable force...' and against Sergeant Koon for '...willfully permitting and failing to take action to stop the unlawful assault...' on King." Based on these indictments a trial of the four officers in the United States District Court for the Central District of California began on February 25, 1993.[32] The federal trial focused more on the evidence as to the training of officers instead of just relying on the videotape of the incident. On March 9 of the 1993 trial, King took the witness stand and described to the jury the events as he remembered them.[33] The jury found Officer Laurence Powell and Sergeant Stacey Koon guilty, and they were subsequently sentenced to 32 months in prison, while Timothy Wind and Theodore Briseno were acquitted of all charges.[7]
During the three-hour sentencing hearing, the Federal trial judge, John Davies, accepted much of the defense version of the beating. He strongly criticized King, who he said provoked the officers' initial actions. Judge Davies stated that only the final six or so baton blows by Powell were unlawful. The first 55 seconds of the videotaped portion of the incident, during which the vast majority of the blows were delivered, was within the law because the officers were attempting to subdue a suspect who was resisting efforts to take him into custody.
Davies found that King's provocative behavior began with his "remarkable consumption of alcoholic beverage" and continued through a high-speed chase, refusal to submit to police orders and an aggressive charge toward Powell. Davies made several findings in support of the officers' version of events. He concluded that Officer Powell never intentionally struck King in the head, and "Powell's baton blow that broke King's leg was not illegal because King was still resisting and rolling around on the ground, and breaking bones in resistant suspects is permissible under police policy."
Mitigation cited by the judge in determining the length of the prison sentence included the suffering the officers had undergone because of the extensive publicity their case had received, the impending loss of their careers as police officers, their vulnerability to abuse in prison and their having been subjected to two trials. The judge acknowledged that having two such trials did not legally constitute double jeopardy, but nonetheless it "raised the specter of unfairness."
Both Laurence Powell and Stacey Koon appealed their sentences, first to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and then to the Supreme Court of the United States, which decided the case (518 U.S. 81) on June 13, 1996, with Justice Kennedy delivering the opinion of the Court.[10]
King successfully sued the city of Los Angeles in a federal civil rights case. The court jury awarded King $3.8 million and awarded King's attorneys an additional $1.7 million in statutory attorney's fees. King's lawyer, Stephen Lerman, distributed the attorney's fees to the lawyers who worked on King's behalf. King then sued Lerman for legal malpractice, claiming King was entitled to those attorney's fees instead of his lawyers. Lerman successfully defended himself in the action, having the case dismissed on summary judgment, which was affirmed on appeal.[citation needed]
King continued to get into trouble after the 1991 incident. On August 21, 1993, he crashed his car into a block wall in downtown Los Angeles.[34] He was convicted of driving under the influence of alcohol, fined, entered an alcohol rehabilitation program and was placed on probation. In July 1995, he was arrested by Alhambra police after hitting his wife with his car and knocking her to the ground. He was sentenced to 90 days in jail after being convicted of hit and run.[35] King invested a portion of his settlement in a record label, Straight Alta-Pazz Records, which went under.[36] On August 27, 2003, King was arrested again for speeding and running a red light while under the influence of alcohol. He failed to yield to police officers and slammed his vehicle into a house, breaking his pelvis.[37] On November 29, 2007, while riding home on his bicycle, King was shot in the face, arms, and back with pellets from a shotgun. He reported that the attackers were a man and a woman who demanded his bicycle and shot him when he rode away.[35] Police described the wounds as looking like they came from birdshot.[citation needed]
In May 2008, King checked into the Pasadena Recovery Center in Pasadena, California, where he filmed as a cast member of season 2 of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, which premiered in October 2008. Dr. Drew Pinsky, who runs the facility, showed concern for King's lifestyle and said King would die unless his addiction were treated.[38] He also appeared on Sober House, a Celebrity Rehab spin-off focusing on a sober living environment, which aired in early 2009. Both shows filmed King's quest not only to achieve sobriety, but as well to reestablish a relationship with his family, which had been severely damaged by his drinking and law breaking.[39]
During his time on Celebrity Rehab and Sober House, King worked on his addiction and on the lingering trauma of the beating. He and Pinsky physically retraced King's path from the night of his beating, eventually reaching the spot where it happened, the site of the Children's Museum of Los Angeles.[40]
King won[41] a celebrity boxing match against ex-Chester City (Delaware County, Pennsylvania) police officer Simon Aouad on Friday, September 11, 2009, at the Ramada Philadelphia Airport in Essington, Pennsylvania.[42]
In 2009, King and other Celebrity Rehab alumni appeared as panel speakers to a new group of addicts at the Pasadena Recovery Center, marking 11 months of sobriety for him. His appearance was aired in the third season episode "Triggers".[43]
On September 9, 2010, it was confirmed that King was going to marry Cynthia Kelley, who had been a juror in the civil suit King brought against the City of Los Angeles after being beaten by policeman; he had been awarded $3.8 million.[2]
On March 3, 2011, the 20th anniversary of the beating, the LAPD stopped King for driving erratically and issued him a citation for driving with an expired license.[44][45][46] This arrest led to his February 2012 misdemeanor conviction for reckless driving.[47]
The BBC quoted King commenting on his legacy. "Some people feel like I'm some kind of hero. Others hate me. They say I deserved it. Other people, I can hear them mocking me for when I called for an end to the destruction, like I'm a fool for believing in peace."[48]
On June 17, 2012, King's fiancée Cynthia Kelly found him lying at the bottom of his swimming pool.[49][50] Police in Rialto received a 911 call from Kelly at about 5:25 a.m. (PT).[51][52] Responding officers found King at the bottom of the pool, removed him, and attempted to revive him. He was transferred by ambulance to Arrowhead Regional Medical Center in Colton, California and was pronounced dead at the hospital at 6:11 a.m. The Rialto Police Department began a standard drowning investigation and stated there did not appear to be any foul play. On August 23, 2012, King's autopsy results were released, stating he died of accidental drowning, and alcohol, cocaine, marijuana, and PCP found in his system were contributing factors. "The effects of the drugs and alcohol, combined with the subject's heart condition, probably precipitated a cardiac arrhythmia and the subject, thus incapacitated, was unable to save himself and drowned".[53]
King is interred at Forest Lawn Memorial Park (Hollywood Hills), Los Angeles, California.[citation needed]

Quick Take: So often, we think inflection points are about technology. And so often, they are really about distribution (how we get that technology to the market) or financing (easier ways to pay for it).
What's behind the rapid growth in solar? Falling prices are only half the story. The other half is companies such as Solar City that let homeowners lease the systems for little or no money up front.
Microgrid-as-a-Service Offers a Collaborative Model to the Conventional Macrogrid
Customer-owned microgrids will be the dominant ownership model in the near-term, while MaaS offers a completely new business model with flexible growth opportunities, says Lux Research
Self-contained "microgrids" are emerging as a viable power option for users from datacenters to telecom stations to single family homes. While customer-owned microgrids are standard today, a new business model, Microgrid-as-a-Service (MaaS) offers a flexible ownership structure and presents the best opportunity to capitalize on this growing market, according to Lux Research.
Lux Research utilized 15 different generation sources and cost/revenue inputs to build a bottom-up microgrid financial model giving the internal rate of return (IRR) and levelized cost of energy (LCOE) as metrics for given sector- and business-model-specific input assumptions.
While all models of microgrid development can potentially be profitable, MaaS – where the installing entity owns and finances the microgrid on behalf of the subscribing customers or power purchasers – provides the most flexible growth opportunities.
"The complex planning required to deploy microgrids is enabling innovative business models to emerge as focus grows on local power quality and grid-wide performance, coupled with improved distribution generation and automation," said Dean Frankel, Lux Research Associate and the lead author of the report titled, "Microgrids: How Business Model Innovation Will Support New Development Opportunities."
Lux Research analysts built and evaluated several models in order to assess opportunities for utilities, and impact-investors and technology developers. Among their findings:
Customer-owned microgrids and MaaS yield similar returns – but to different parties. Based on an industrial base case, with 10 MW of generation from solar and natural gas, as well as energy storage, the returns for the customer-owned microgrid and MaaS are identical. However, the customer-owned model places all financial risk on the customer, while the MaaS model offers an opportunity for utilities and third-party financiers to strategically capture customers while diversifying from traditional power service opportunities.
Pay-as-you-go (PAYG) model shows promise in developing world. Small-scale PAYG microgrid models can help profitably serving the 1.3 billion people who lack access to electricity. In India, Mera Gao Power runs profitable solar-driven microgrids, serving 25-30 paying customers per microgrid installation.
Electricity and gas prices impact microgrid economics. As the retail rate of electricity increases, microgrids become a no-brainer investment as every 1 cent per kilowatt-hour increase in electricity rate translates into a 2% increase in IRR. Similarly, gas price fluctuations can drastically swing microgrid economics – a 50% price increase from $4 to $6/mmBTU can completely wipe out any economic benefits of a microgrid implementation.
The report, titled "Microgrids: How Business Model Innovation Will Support New Development Opportunities," is part of the Lux Research Grid Storage Intelligence service.

Wokingham school girls reach technology competition final
Published: 14 May 2013 09:30
Two teams from Luckley-Oakfield School, in Luckley Road, entered the "Food" and "Transport" categories of the TeenTech Awards.
Jasmine Kaur, 14, and Amy Thomas, 15, designed a fridge which can detect when food is past its expiry date. By creating a mobile app along with this, the owner can check what food has expired on their phone.
Tara Thomas, 13, and Holly Thurston, 13, created a car which can detect a driver's mood.
Caroline Bennett, Head of ICT at Luckley said: "To get through to the final top three in each category we entered was superb.
"Out of the 350 entrants there are only 30 teams in the final - three for each of the 10 categories.
"I am so proud of the four students and the hard work they have put in to get to the finals."
The competition was open to students aged between 11 and 16. The final takes place on June 24 at The Royal Society.

I was all set to get the Powertec cage for $500 when I saw an open or half cage from Body Solid at the store today. I really like the open design of this model. It has a slightly lower overall weight rating that the full cage, 1000# vs. 750#, but it should still be plenty heavy enough for me. Here are my thoughts. Tell me what I may have missed and give me your thoughts/recommendations. I've attached pics of the open/half cage as well as the full cage.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you guys can offer.
Half cage: ~$450
+ open design, more room for squats
+ wider base, more stable
+ weight tree built in
+ can be used for squats, bench press, seated/standing military press, curls, shrugs, stiff leg deadlift
- no chinning bar (but I can either chin from a bar in the top rack or bolt a chinning bar to my joists)
- safety bars are not likely as strong as solid rods on cage
- although wider, it weighs a little less than the full cage, so there might be more 'wiggle room.'
Full cage: ~$500
+ can do all exercise that I can do on th ehalf cage, plus chins and possibly dios if I add dipping bars to the cage
+ more likely a little more solid due to the weight and the design, i.e. 'enclosed/reinforced box.'
- spacing in between uprights can be a little tight on some cages. My present cage (cheap model) has 30" inbetween the uprights. Powertec and some others are only 25" between the posts.

We do love a good celebrity selfie and today we have no less than 25 from some of our faves - and all for a good cause! Everyone from models Karen Elson, Daisy Lowe and Naomi Campbell to designers Luella Bartley, Calvin Klein and Henry Holland as well as Harry Styles have taken selfies to illustrate #FirstSNOG, a unique campaign to support Stonewall, the gay equality charity celebrating its 25th anniversary.
But this is no ordinary selfie - oh no. Stonewall has teamed up with SNOG Frozen Yogurt to commission Carri Munden of Cassette Playa, known for her cult graphics and digital expertise, to adorn each image with characters and emojis insired by love, peace and, err, fruit.
What's more, you can show your support too. Yep, fans can get involved by using SNOG's selfie photo-booth stamping app (it's brilliantly kitsch). Your snap will be uploaded alongside selfies from Russell Brand, Rita Ora, Florence Welch, Douglas Booth and more.

DEFINITION of 'Lewes Pound'
A local currency used in Lewes, East Sussex, United Kingdom. Only local businesses accept Lewes pounds, which are part of an initiative to encourage consumers to shop locally. Lewes pounds are also intended to help lower carbon emissions by reducing the quantity of goods that must be transported long distances for commerce in Lewes. Consumers can obtain Lewes pounds at designated issuing points and spend them with any local merchant that accepts them. Lewes pounds are paper bills that come in denominations of 1, 5, 10 and 21.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Lewes Pound'
One Lewes pound is worth one pound sterling. There is a 5% transaction fee (5 pence) associated with acquiring Lewes pounds. The 5% goes to the Live Lewes Fund, which supports local community organizations.
Because it is not intended to replace the pound sterling, but rather to function alongside it, the Lewes pound is considered a complementary currency. It is legal for merchants to transact in Lewes pounds, but the currency is not legal tender, so merchants do not have to accept it. Some merchants offer discounts to customers who pay with Lewes pounds.

Here's another suggestion Download SubInACL from Microsoft to fix permission issues that prevent the Flash Player installation.
It's possible that the permissions are messed up if only the Administrator can use Flash.
Can anyone confirm exactly which version this is affecting - so I can try to avoid it?
Here's another suggestion Download SubInACL from Microsoft to fix permission issues that prevent the Flash Player installation.
It's possible that the permissions are messed up if only the Administrator can use Flash.
This might help Witch:
AppDeploy > Package Knowledgebase > Flash Player
I go there whenever RM don't have specific instructions.
Thanks guys - will try on Tuesday when I am back in that school
tried all suggestions
Still doesnt work unless you are an admin
Dont get it - I have changed NOTHING on the system
Is this flash 10.1 I assume?
That hooks in to your graphics card so possibly try a video card driver update.
What hardware is it failing on? do they have graphics cards or onboard?
Do other packages assign ok? not sure if you were saying that worked ok or not.
Code:rem @ECHO OFF REM --- Check for an existing installation of Flash Player if exist "c:\flash100452.txt" goto _End REM --- Deploy to Windows 2000/XP/2003 "\\server\packages$\flash shock mar 10\uninstall_flash_player.exe" /s "\\server\packages$\flash shock mar 10\flash_player_10_active_x.msi" /quiet copy "\\server\packages$\flash shock mar 10\flash100452.txt" "c:\flash100452.txt" /y REM --- End of the script :_End
Hi Witch
Dont think you are on your own with this one. We have had problems tooooooooooo. I have found the msi's don't like previous versions and they bug out. I have also found that some versions dont uninstall properly when I delete the group policy. On my network the policies should uninstall if they fall out of range. I am having to manually run the uninstall tool on the affected computer and then gpupdate and then group policy will install it. I have also found that some of the problem I am having is because the msi has been deployed and then upgraded to fix a problem from the adobe site. When the gpo tries to uninstall it cannot as its a later version.
Dont I just love flash.
Right, I shall be back in tomorrow and I know that everyone will be yelling at me that Flash doesnt work -so...
Just before the hols I removed the msi and indeed the policy, and then ran the uninstaller on one machine. Then I installed the last version (that had been fine on the machines before this debacle) and it STILL will only work for the administrator.
Something fundamental has changed somewhere!
The kids arent back tomorrow (I'm not supposed to be but I thought I'd better go in whilst they arent there) so I can get to alll the machines.
Has anyone come up with any ideas or suggestions? I will go back through the posts and try everything again, especially the script. Here's hoping
We are moving from flash installed on the ghost "image" to rolling out via MSI.
Currently rolling out 10.1.53.64
We were having loads of problems before with it just breaking but are having relatively few problems now with flash.
When we did have issues our solution was always.
Uninstall flash from add/remove
Run the flash uninstaller
Go to the adobe site and install the latest version.
This usually sorted the issue.
I do like the look of the batch file install though - may investigate that as a backup route.
Thanks sted!

It's time to celebrate another Shark Attackiversary! This year, along with throwing a party, we're making this bloody, shark-themed snack, from the mind that brought you the pumpkin cake recipe.
This is Offbeat Home's archive of videos posts.
Cooking challenge final results: Lasagnes and lessons learned
In which I give y'all the breakdown of my last few challenge meals, including a video with a special guest star. Then I break down the over all results of this whirlwind week of cooking and learning.
Cooking Challenge Day 3 results: Dinner, dancing, and drinking games
Ooh, Homies, are you in for a treat. Ever hear me talk about "that guy I married"? Ever wondered what he was like? On day three of the challenge, my shy dude came out of hiding and is featured pretty prominently. Also featured on this dinner video: The drinking game I invented based on how much I whine. I call it "wine for whine." So pour yourself a glass and feel free to play along as you watch…
Cooking challenge breakfast results: Megan makes a granola parfait, her husband writes a song
Hey Homies, I know I said that I would post the results the day after I made all my foods, but… I recorded myself making today's breakfast — the granola parfait — and I thought you'd want to see how poorly my first day is going.
Cosplay storage solutions… from IKEA?
This past year I've started to dabble in cosplay. Even though I just have four costumes, I'm ALREADY feeling the storage pinch. That's why this "IKEA bedroom stories" video, featuring a super-awesome cosplayer, made my day. Watch this and then let's talk…
Spreading the relaxing, tingly love of the autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR)
ASMR stands for "autonomous sensory meridian response," which is basically a fancy made-up acronym for a heightened feeling of relaxation, accompanied by tingles, especially in the scalp and spine. I got into ASMR a year or so ago, during a stressful period of my PhD. I was watching a HELL of a lot of make-up and massage tutorials, not so much for the actual tips, but because they gave me a lovely relax-y buzz. And then Youtube, in its wisdom, suggested an ASMR Massage video…

5 British comedies and soaps you should watch when you need a break from zombies, meth, and fantasy
I don't own a TV, but I'm the queen bee of streaming the shows I love to watch online, either via Netflix, Hulu, or some kind of third party. I'm not a fan of some of the bigger shows that are either on TV right now or recently ended (Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones), so when Parenthood skips a week (heeeey network TV) or I'm all Grey's Anatomy-ed out, I head over to Netflix and start watching funny British comedies instead.

looking for a good Mediterranean/Lebanese/Persian Restaurant
for a Mezza Veg sampler,, Greek Salad Hummus etc. Also, anything good a an Indian veg rest you might recommend? Thx in advance! J
I like Tino's myself. Pretty good bang for your buck there, and the tabouleh is usually pretty fresh as well. Swad is the name for Indian Veg.
Arpeggio Grill is my preferred place for Mediterranean. There is a Lebanese place on Oltorf next to Curra's called Tarbouch, although I haven't been there. Alborz for Persian food is pretty good. I really like their Stewed beef in pomegranate sauce and their sour cherry rice.
Arpeggio Grill
6619 Airport Blvd, Austin, TX 78752
2nding Arpeggio. No filler in the tabouli, excellent hummus, and the falafel is perfectly fried. I can also recommend the kofta kabob. Last time I was there, they had a meat and 3 option for a very reasonable price (maybe 6-7 bucks?).
While the atmosphere leaves something to be desired (florescent lights - yuck!), the food is fresh and delicious. I particularly love the vege dishes - the eggplant, the peas, the hummus. The lamb shank is delicious - when they have it. The tabuleh has too much parsley for my tastes, but it is always fresh and nicely flavored. The dessert pastries are not made in house, but they're alright. Really good value for the price.
Dimassis Mediterrenean Buffet
12636 Research Blvd, Austin, TX 78759
re: oboemama
Alborz's lunch buffet, and dinner buffet on the weekends, is a deal. Large variety of tasty food.
Arpeggio Grill and Alborz are my two favorites in town as well. Alborz is a step up in niceness decor wise, but both have great food. I think both also have been around a long time, many years.

How's the food at Marakesh nowadays? I haven't been since a couple of bad experiences after the owner had recently died maybe 2 years ago. We almost went there for lunch this week but didn't want to risk mediocre food. Please tell me it's much improved and back to its former self.

Oh, I didn't know all of that! I've honestly just been for the first time this year, and have been going once every couple of weeks for a while now so I don't have anything to compare it to. I almost always get the beef schwarma and I really like it. I'm not a huge fan of the green bean salad with it though. Some days it's good, and some days it's a little "woody" with too much dried mint.
I've also had the kibbeh and the falafel and like both of those as well. I think their fattoush is some of the best in town too. I'd love to hear your opinion if you try it again since you've been in the past.

Its not every day we hear from Papaya King OMG, are they offering us free hot dogs for life? Sadly, no. A company rep e-mails to share some not-so-great news: The Upper East Side location (yes, Anthony Bourdains go-to) closed today. But dont panic unlike the 14th Street store (which closed last winter and turned into a deli), its merely taking a much needed mid-summer break. The rep says, Well be reopening our doors with a newly renovated space later this summer. Newly renovated? What needs to be renovated? Sure, the new signage at Chelsea Papaya is fun, but when it comes to the original Papayas, the less changed the better!

Will the Upper East Side store face the fate of its shuttered 14th Street location?
