- fen ecosystem (1) (remove)
- Carbon dynamics under natural and manipulated meteorological boundary conditions in a forest and a fen ecosystem (2009)
- Current climate models predict changes in the amount, intensity, frequency and type of precipitation within this century. These changes are likely to result in an increasing frequency of severe drought periods in summer, causing irregular and extreme drought stress in well-drained soils or a lowering of the water table in water-logged soils. Due to rising temperatures precipitation is more likely to occur as rain rather than snow, resulting in reduced snowpacks in winter. In some regions, this can lead to an increasing frequency of soil frost. In summary, changes in the global water cycle can significantly affect boundary conditions within soils. This thesis investigated the impact of extreme meteorological boundary conditions on CO2 fluxes in two ecosystems in South-eastern Germany. Using a combination of field site manipulation and laboratory experiments we investigated the effects of prolonged summer drought and soil frost on soil C dynamics in a Norway spruce forest. In a minerotrophic fen located nearby, the effect of water table lowering (as a result of summer drought) on ecosystem C dynamics was quantified. Additionally, soil C dynamics at both sites were modeled under current meteorological conditions. For the Norway spruce forest, modeling indicated that soil C turnover predominantly occurred within the organic horizons. During the last decades, the soil has acted as a small sink. The possibility of altered C dynamics at the site due to undocumented liming has to be considered when comparing results presented here to results from other sites. For the fen, modeling revealed that soil C turnover was dominated by processes occurring within the uppermost 15 cm of the peat and that root biomass was a very important soil C stock. Most important, modeling indicated that the fen was turned into a net C source during the last decades, presumably because of disturbance of the hydrological conditions. Results from this fen cannot be regarded as representative for undisturbed peatlands. Soil frost was induced at the forest site by removing the snowpack in the winter of 2005/2006. On the snow removal plots, soil frost occurred down to a depth of at least 15 cm and for several weeks, in contrast to the snow-covered control plots where no soil frost occurred. Soil C losses were significantly reduced not only during the soil frost period but also in the summer of 2006. This phenomenon could be explained by changes in the composition of the microbial community due to soil frost, primarily a reduction of fungal biomass. To investigate the effect of drought on soil C dynamics we experimentally induced prolonged drought at the forest-site by excluding throughfall with a transparent roof during the summers of 2006-2008. Additionally, undisturbed soil columns from the site were subjected to drought in the laboratory. In both experiments, drought reduced total soil C losses in comparison to C losses from a control. This reduction was mainly owed to decreased soil respiration rates during the actual drought period, but water repellency also hindered rewetting of the dry soil, thus further prolonging the period of reduced soil respiration rates. In the past, mobilization of stabilized C due to drying-wetting has been repeatedly discussed as a possibility to actually enhance soil C losses. In the studies presented here, no evidence for this assumption was found. Soil C mineralization rates were reduced during drought and recovery was slow, possibly delayed by water repellency and preferential flow. At the fen site we used two approaches: (i) Experimental lowering of water tables to measure resulting C fluxes in comparison to C fluxes under natural conditions (i.e. control plots), and (ii) repeated measurements under varying natural conditions to be able to later statistically identify the main drivers of CO2 fluxes. We included measurements of C uptake and respiration by aboveground vegetation, thus being able to study ecosystem rather than soil C dynamics at the fen site. In summary, the impact of the water table on CO2 fluxes in and out of the fen ecosystem was minimal. Soil respiration was not affected at all by the manipulative lowering of the water table from ca. 15 cm down to more than 60 cm, most likely due to low substrate quality in deeper peat. Measurements of the natural C dynamics indicate that water table could have an impact on soil respiration within the uppermost 0-15 cm of the soil, but predominantly low water tables during summer under current boundary conditions make it unlikely that further lowered water tables due to climate change will markedly affect soil respiration rates at this site. In summary, CO2 fluxes at the site are presumably very resilient towards an increasing frequency of summer drought resulting in lowering of the water table.

A Sojourn in Sicily: Mehall Griffey and Jerry Maggis Apartment
While visiting the famed Italian island, a couple chance upon an ideal 19th-century apartment, which they rejuvenate without sacrificing any of its old-world charm
By Craig Seligman
Master Bathroom
But many aspects of their apartment gesture in the opposite direction. The Devon & Devon tub in the guest bath is contemporary. So are the jade tiles in the master bath (with some random gold tiles sprinkled in to pick up the gold leaf on the ceiling), and the minimalist fixtures in the shower and above the marble sink, which was made by Sicilian craftsmen.
The beauty of times gone by: absolutely. The discomforts: no way.
The walls and floor of the master bath are covered in Bisazza tiles, the French mirror is 1950s, and the custom sink was handmade by Sicilian craftsmen; the fittings are by Hansgrohe, and the ceiling is covered in gold leaf.

Get Down Tonight
Tonight I am going to a rock concert. I've never been to one before, unless you count Donna Summer and Cher, and I'm told neither of those count.
The band is called "New Order" and they're playing this funky old venue not far from my neighborhood called the Aragon Ballroom. C has played a bunch of their music for me, and I actually do remember hearing one of their songs on the radio. The title escapes me. Quite bouncy, good stuff, though their diction isn't what it might be.
I have no idea what to expect, really, so I did some research by watching three solid hours of MTV. I also painted a big poster that said "I Heart Bono" but I've since learned he's with some other band, so that was time wasted.
I had no idea what to wear, but C says a black t-shirt will suffice. Heaven knows I have plenty of those.
C also gave me a brief but informative orientation session which went something like this:
F: Should I bring a lighter? To wave back and forth in the air?
C: No.
F: When they finish a song, do I scream "Bravi"?
C: No.
F: Can I try stage diving?
C: No.
F: Will there be one of those "moosh pits"?
C: If you don't knock it off, there will be.
What's even better is that in July, he's taking me to something called "Lollapalooza," which I gather is sort of like Tanglewood. I can be "down with that."
Word to your mothers, everybody!

New Order as in the new wavy type group from the late 80s to early 90s?
I loved them when I was a spry young mite.

If someone gets too forward at the concert, and you don't appreciate his or her advances, you can say, "Get off my grill. You ain't the ill notes," and you will be perfectly hip. I learned this from my students who are certainly trustworthy in these maters.
- TrickyTricot said...
You are too funny Franklin... Um, Cher totally counts as a rock concert. When attending a Cher concert, you can also check the "fashion show" and "circus" boxes.
I believe it's a mosh pit, my dear. My best advice to prepare for this is to get on a crowded subway car or bus and push people around - preferrably when it's moving.

i wouldn't go to MTV in search of music, if i were you? crappy cable tv, yes. music, no. i don't know where you'd go to find new order stuff. but i like them. are you really going to lollapalooza? i'm skerrd a yu (and am trying to visualize that)

The last concert I attended was Bonnie Rait in '98 when I discovered that, 'tho I love her music, I want to live to LISTEN to music again. Take earplugs!
- goblinbox said...
You should practice yelling "Freebird!" Then, at the concert, you may scream it soulfully between the songs. THE BAND, if they can hear you, WILL LOVE IT. I promise.

O.K., Franklin, we're all on the edge of our collective, metaphorical seat awaiting an update. How was the show? Was it fabulous? I want details!

Cairo (CNN) -- It was a welcome more suited for a rock star than a wanted man.
A mob of cheering fans surrounded Egypt's high court on Sunday, chanting Bassem Youssef's name.
Two years ago, Youssef was a heart surgeon producing satirical YouTube videos from inside his Cairo apartment.
Now, he's one of Egypt's best-known television personalities, with a nationally broadcast program that has drawn comparisons to Jon Stewart's "The Daily Show" for its irreverent take on Egyptian politics.
But the popularity he won by pushing the boundaries of free speech comes with a price.
Egypt's public prosecutor summoned Youssef for questioning on Sunday, accusing him of insulting President Mohamed Morsy and Islam.
He was released on $2,200 bail in response to three lawsuits filed against him, the prosecutor general's office told CNN.
Youssef's satirical commentary didn't stop during his questioning on Sunday.
The blue-eyed comedian offered a steady stream of Twitter posts about the experience.
He mocked officers recording his physical description for asking him his eye color as he stood in front of them.
He poked fun at the prosecutor's office, tweeting that officials could not find a laptop to see episodes from his show.
"A policeman and a lawyer from the General Prosecutors Office want to take their pictures with (me). Could this be the reason I was summoned?" he wrote.
The prosecutor has said Youssef's weekly show is insulting not just to the president but to Islam itself.
In recent days, some lawyers filed complaints on behalf of Egyptians making those allegations.
But the prosecutor has provided no details, and Youssef is a practicing Muslim.
It is a crime in Egypt to insult any religion.
In December, Youssef said that he thought Morsy and other Egyptian politicians were accepting his show, "Al Bernameg" ("The Program").
"I think this is actually the best time to have a political satire program in Egypt," he told CNN's Christiane Amanpour.
"Basically we are the drama queen of the world, with everything happening. We're kind of the international political soap opera," he said. "So it's a great time and era to have a political satire to comment on everything that's happening."
But he noted that some Egyptians had accused him of being anti-Islam.
"I'm proud to be an Egyptian and a Muslim," he told Amanpour. "My mom is always concerned every time I go on TV. She's afraid that I'm going to be caught and put in prison. But you know, that's what moms do. But I satirize. The way it goes down with people, many are actually accepting it. And actually, it's empowering a lot of people that they think that this speaks on their behalf."
Recently some people critical of Morsy's government have been arrested or brought in for questioning, a tactic critics have said is reminiscent of the ousted Hosni Mubarak government. Some have accused the government of trying to stifle free speech.
"Pathetic efforts to smother dissent and intimidate media is a sign of a shaky regime and a bunker mentality," Mohamed ElBaradei, an Egyptian opposition leader and former director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, wrote in a Twitter post Saturday.
In January, Morsy told CNN he was committed to allowing free speech in his country.
Social media helped propel Youssef to fame, and social media posts swelled in support of him Sunday.
But after he was released on bail, the TV host offered a more serious message to his 1.2 million Twitter followers: "Touched by people's support and media attention, however, there are many more activists being prosecuted that deserve to get that support."
CNN's Ian Lee reported from Cairo. CNN's Amir Ahmed reported from Atlanta. CNN's Salma Abdelaziz and Neda Farshbaf and journalist Adam Makary contributed to this report.

Did I eat rashers of bacon for breakfast?
Up the whazoo
Greens and salads are hard to find when you're traveling but I had this healthy dinner at artist Ian Siddaway's. His wife, Lydia is a chef. Every artist needs a chef for a wife/husband in my opinion. All applications will be given careful consideration.
One of you told me to go to Sketch Parlor for tea and thank goodness for that. I ordered a 'jellied' dessert by Paris chef Pierre Gagnaire, which according to the BBC Food Programme is very in now.
You told me to go to Kensington Gardens Palace for tea. I did as I was told. Very nice indeed.
You did not tell me to go to Afternoon tea at Fortnum & Mason. I did that on my own by going up too high in the elevator. Very high in the pocketbook too.
Ottolenghi haven't I raved enough about the place? Are the Passion Fruit meringue tarts still available or did you gobble them up?

Actually, I'm hoping to find software to let me do some video editing so I can start adding some video guides to addons (as navigating the options windows on some are a little tricky and easier to do with visual aids).
But, I have Rime setup, and I think you have the only thing you need to know, the buff it gives is actually called "Freezing Fog" and that's what Power Auras will register.
Did you re-check the spelling and make sure no boxes were checked that shouldn't apply? Such as "exact spelling" or "enemy target?" Also, make sure you're using the "Buff" key as the proc provides a buff.
An alternate but obviously less appealing method until you get the Rime aura working would be to simply make a "Action Usable" tracker for Howling Blast. It won't distinguish HB coming off cooldown from a Rime proc, but it will at least let you know it's usable.

The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
Debuff Filter is an extremly good tool for showing an icon when certain buffs proc, IE Rime, Freezing Fog, or for tracking when buffs are up such as VB or UA. It also tracks debuffs such as diseases if you want a more visual approach. It's real easy to set up, takes maybe 5 minutes and is useful for target, player, or even focus. Uses a very small amount of memory as well.

Question with regards to blood tanking.
Dancing rune weapon - although I previously thought this a DPS only talent point, I've been left wondering recently if there is a use for this in tanking. Specifically looking at getting agro quick.
My question is though anyone got any idea if DRW counts as a pet and therefore builds its own agro table or if its attacks count as coming from yourself and therefore a 50% agro increase for its duration?
DRW is the same as your Ghoul, Bloodworms, and Gargoyle. They are pets, they have their own threat, and that threat never transfers to you. At all.
The (Old) Book on Death Knight Tanking
The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
A couple points that stuck out for me:
ArP increases in value with Sunder/Faerie Fire.
It might be worth mentioning the value to proposition of SSG is 3% avoidance + 2% stamina vs SS is 4% avoidance (as I recall), is that no longer true?
Armor Pen loses value with Sunder and FF as far as how much armor it removes, it still increases your damage done.
Short-hand explanation, ArP is applied in cascading multipliers with Sunder and FF. So if your target has 10k armor, a full stack of sunder takes that to 8k (20% off), FF takes that to 7.6k (5% off that), and 10% armor reduction from B-G takes that to 6.84k.
If you look at that in the least flattering way, you would say it only removed 760 armor (7.6% not 10%), but it'd be a little higher if you took all the reductions at essentially the same time. If you're talking about reducing the damage reduction (oops I've gone cross-eyed), then reducing 1k armor from 10k or 760 from 7.6k you're still not doing better in the overall damage buffing sense. Let me dig through my numbers, I ran the calculations on this a while back.
Your SSG vs SS is true, but I thought I mentioned that. I may have only done it in my head, thank you, I'll go back and check. =)
The (Old) Book on Death Knight Tanking
The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
I'm trying to find where I read it was more effective (in terms of damage output) but I'm coming up empty. Should Ret Pallies be in the second tier for Hysteria? I could be wrong, but Hysteria affects basically any attack modified by ArP and its value for a Ret Pally is really low because it only affects about 35% of their damage. Frost and Unholy would actually benefit quite a bit (because of high melee and Obliterate usage for Frost, and Scourge Strike now being physical based at its core).
Hysteria increases anything that is "physical" damage. Ret pallies do a lot of physical damage, but not entirely, they still get a lot of magic damage. Thus the second tier. Maybe they deserve the same treatment as Frost/Unholy DK's I haven't had a good parse on Retadins or Frost DK's in a while.
At the end of the day though, it's hard to beat a dps warrior or kitteh, they only do physical damage really (yes little snippets not here and there).
The (Old) Book on Death Knight Tanking
The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
Just to double check my reasoning (and I know this isn't a primary point of your guide so I'll try to avoid cluttering the thread too much), I looked at a recent log for a ret pally in my guild. Out of all of their abilities, exactly three are physical based. Melee (19.8%), Crusader Strike (9.8%), and Divine Storm (5%). That matches pretty closely the number I picked out of a Ret Pally guide. The rest is Holy damage and unaffected by Hysteria (you might make an argument for Righteous Vengeance 8.7% being partially caused by Crusader Strike and Divine Storm crits, but that still doesn't make the physical boost compelling).
Meanwhile, the last time I was Unholy on the same boss:
22.8% Melee, 28.7% Scourge Strike, 5.5% Blood Strike, 2.9% BCB, 2.4% PS = 62.3% physical
Hardly on the same scale as a kitty, warrior, or blood DK, but certainly better than a ret paladin. Likewise, I don't have any logs of me as Frost handy, but I remember Obliterate damage comprising about 38% of my damage alone (I could be mistaken).
Scourge Strike is currently only ~57% physical damage (assuming you're using it with 3 diseases always, and if you were measuring before the current patch it's not physical at all). But that's good info to have, thank you.
The (Old) Book on Death Knight Tanking
The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
It was post patch, and while the damage is only 57% physical, the shadow portion is based entirely off the amount of physical damage done. It won't double dip like it does with other modifiers, but it benefits from Hysteria (1.2 * the physical damage modifies the shadow damage by 1.2 in turn).
I also forgot why to mention why using Hysteria on warriors is largely a wasted measure. It won't stack with Wrecking Crew on Arms Warriors or Deathwish for Fury (so if you give it to a Fury Warrior, you need to coordinate).
While I looked that up, I found the list from patch 3.1 that describes somethings to consider when giving out Hysteria:
"Hysteria, Tricks of the Trade, Enrage, Wrecking Crew, Death Wish, Arcane Power, Owlkin Frenzy, Beast Within, and Avenging Wrath damage bonuses no longer stack together."
Yeah, it overwrites Wrecking Crew for Arms warriors giving 10% more damage done (cut in half essentially). It's pretty easy though to not overlap with Death Wish.
The (Old) Book on Death Knight Tanking
The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
Satorri, I don't post much but just wanted to comment that this guide is awesome!
Great info, I just went dps with my DK but I may go back to tanking now, keep up the great work.
We were doing deathwhisper a few nights ago and found that our 4.5k ret paladin (who we stuck on adds...mistakenly in hindsight) does a surprisingly TINY amount of actual physical damage. His normal dps is somewhere around 4 and a half raid buffed if not higher, and on the adds that take almost no magical damage he was pulling around 1.6k.
Judging from that alone i would never waste a hysteria on a ret pally unless there was NOTHING else to blow it on, and even then i'd consider myself a better alternative than him probably.
Maybe I didn't catch it, but Death Strike for Unholy spec tanks is pretty powerful. It heals just as much as Blood tanks w/ 3 diseases, and you can use it more often in Unholy than you can in Blood. Blood will just give you slightly more stamina to increase the effect of Death Strike.
The only thing you lose as Unholy by doing that is threat, but you can start out w/ SS and move to DS later on in the fight, as you've built up great amounts of Threat. Plus, Runestrike will continue to provide a huge amount of threat necessary to handle aggro, even swapping out SS for DS.
A lot of information and well written. TY!
In the unholy section, you describe rolling unholy blight as something worth pursuing. However, it would appear that unholy blight functions in the same manner as the current ignite and deep wound, such that when the DoT is reapplied, while already in effect, the remaining damage of the current effect is spread across the new effect. This in fact only defers your damage rather than increasing it. Which is rarely of any benefit while tanking.
If this is the correct model, I don't see how it would be possible to obtain a 2k blight tick. If it were possible to throw deathcoils every second (i.e. with only one tick of damage being spent between the DoT being refreshed) you would need an average deathcoil damage of over 20k (10k for the older UB). It would take 29 of these to reach 1.9k per tick and a further 43 to reach 1.99k.

Maverick Redi-Chek Digital Pocket Thermometer #DT-12
Product Review
About GHRI RatingsX
Good Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI) ratings are based on laboratory tests conducted by our scientists at the U.S.'s foremost consumer products evaluation laboratory, and incorporate consumer feedback. GHRI is situated on the 29th floor of the Hearst Tower in New York City and is staffed by chemists, engineers, nutritionists, textile specialists, culinary experts, and other scientists.
Using state-of-the-art equipment, GHRI experts test consumer products — from microwaves to mascaras — for their performance, safety, and, with the help of volunteer testers, ease of use.
Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.
Dead-on accurate, this digital probe would have been a top pick if it wasn't so hard to use. It comes with a protective sheath that we found almost impossible to remove. In addition, we found it extremely slow to respond, taking as long as 49 seconds to give a reading. frys.com.

Janet Durrans for The New York Times
Charles de Gaulle once commented on the impossibility of governing a country that had 246 cheeses. He probably underestimated the number of French cheeses by at least 100.
The world's cheese inventory keeps growing, as new cheesemakers, especially in the United States (where no goat cheeses were made before 1981 and where now there are more than 200), keep dreaming up new ones.
The basic process is pretty easy. It probably started by accident thousands of years ago, when milk that had spoiled under the right conditions did not taste terrible.
From tiny buttons of goat cheese to massive, 220-pound wheels of Emmenthaler, from delicate fresh ricotta to rugged aged Gouda, cheese is basically a highly concentrated form of milk.
To make an ounce of cheese requires about eight ounces of milk. The milk of just about any mammal will do, though cows, ewes and goats are the usual sources. Cheese from water buffalo milk is prized, especially in southern Italy. There is yak cheese on the market, and camel cheese is probably made somewhere.
Whether the milk is pasteurized depends on the cheese. Industrial, processed cheeses are always made from pasteurized milk. Pasteurization is not required by the United States government for cheeses aged more than 60 days. The issue of pasteurization, which can interfere with the traditional maturing process, is one of ongoing controversy.
Like bread and wine, cheese is the result of fermentation. The kind of milk, how it is treated, the size and shape of the cheese, whether it is allowed to age, even where it ages — these things all affect color, texture, aroma and flavor.
A bacterial culture is mixed with the milk (for better control, instead of letting it spoil naturally), transforming the lactose, or milk sugar, into lactic acid. Then rennet, an enzyme, is added, causing the proteins in the milk to coagulate, clump and separate into curds and whey. Rennet can be extracted from the stomach lining of a cow, sheep or goat, and these days more cheesemakers are using plant-based vegetable rennet, often from thistles.
The cheese that results depends on how the curds are treated. (Most cheeses are made from the curds, but a few, like ricotta, are made from the whey, which is also rich in protein.) Salt is added to almost all cheeses. The combination of salt and fat is what helps make cheese delicious. And whether the milk is skimmed, partly skimmed or whole may have no effect on the amount of fat in the finished cheese.
Fresh cheeses are simply salted and perhaps molded. Cheeses shaped into discs, squares, logs and so forth can be treated with bacteria on the outside, causing a thin, bloomy white rind to form, as with Camembert. Cheeses may be washed with brine or spirits as they mature, like Italian taleggio, and achieve a characteristically strong taste and a satiny texture. Well-aged cheeses can be allowed to develop natural rinds. Cheeses may be pressed, like cheddar, to remove all the whey, and become dense.
Blue-veined cheeses, like Roquefort, get that way from the addition of mold cultures. Cheeses may also be covered in ash, leaves, herbs or bark, or wrapped in cloth or sealed in wax. But no matter the cheese, it will taste best not served ice cold. — Florence Fabricant, April 15, 2008

To extend your gate and still ensure maximum safety, BabyDan have developed their new Extend 'A' Gate system - ONE system to fit ALL BabyDan main safety gates - and the simplest process ever
It will extend the width of these gates by 14cm
Easily fitted to stairgate. No problems. Still strong and sturdy despite being extended.
I bought this product to widen the 2x Baby Dan gates that we had purchased for the top and bottom of the stairs. The product description says that this contains 2x bars to widen this. We only needed one additional bar per gate so thought that this would be perfect. Upon receiving this order is became clear that whilst there are 2x additional vertical bars in the box, there are only enough horizontal extenders for one gate. So, you can extend 1x gate by either one or two vertical bars but cannot use this to extend 2x gates by just one vertical bar. You will need to order 2x this product if you need to extend more than one stair gate.
Easy to add to existing stair gate. I'm 6 months pregnant and I managed it!

Hurricane Sandy and its aftermath once again called attention to the New York City Housing Authority and its chairman, John Rhea, who grew up in a troubled section of Detroit and now leads one of the city's most complex operations. NY1's Budd Mishkin filed the following One On 1 profile.
In a sense, New York City Housing Authority Chairman John Rhea is the leader of a city within the city, at the helm of an authority that's responsible for housing roughly 650,000 New Yorkers.
"This is the equivalent of the twenty-first largest city in the country," Rhea says. "Just think about that. In the twenty-first largest city in the country, not all is perfect."
But Rhea said he believes that there is also a lot of good within NYCHA.
As chairman, he is focused on its future. But he has a healthy respect for the history of public housing in New York.
"Renaming Bronxdale Houses after Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor will be one of those memories and moments," Rhea says.
"NYCHA has been here for New Yorkers for 78 years," Rhea added. "It's served millions of families, lifted them out of poverty, put them on a road to the middle class."
In Rhea's previous environment, Wall Street, wins and losses were clear. In public housing, however, the notion of success is more nuanced. The reality is you often only read about NYCHA when there are problems, such as elevator accidents.
One such accident in 2008, prior to Rhea's time in office, killed a young Brooklyn boy.
But Rhea says many stories about NYCHA are over-reported and distorted.
"I fight everyday to make sure that that caricature that is put out there, those distortions, actually are not viewed by most New Yorkers as the reality," Rhea says.
But there are legitimate issues, such as the huge backlog of repair requests in NYCHA buildings.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Rhea recently announced a $40 million program, which attempts to address all 420,000 open work orders by the end of 2013.
Rhea says NYCHA employees have expressed frustration about this issue since his first day on the job. The problem lies with a lack of funding, a lack of manpower, inefficient scheduling and poor communication.
"That Feedback loop from frontline up to management was not working as well as it should have and that's one of the things we've spent a lot of time on over last 12 months," Rhea says.
Hey says he is proud of NYCHA's performance during Hurricane Sandy, but members of the City Council lambasted NYCHA's performance during a hearing in January.
"There wasn't anyone responsible to go to on the ground," Brooklyn Councilman Domenic Recchia said at the hearing.
A panel of mayoral hopefuls relayed similar sentiments.
"John Rhea is the Cathie Black of NYCHA," one of them said, referring to the former magazine editor whose short stint as New York City Schools chancellor was much criticized.
Rhea knows his position is not for the faint of heart.
"Life hasn't been a crystal staircase. I've had challenges and tribulations," Rhea says. "I grew up in a pretty tough place, in the inner city of Detroit. That's not for the faint of heart either. But through those kinds of trials you learn how to deal with tough situations -- and so the criticism really hasn't bothered me."
"The same people that are often quick to attack are the first ones to turn around and actually say 'hey, we really need you NYCHA' in order to accomplish what we're trying to achieve," he says. "I chalk a lot of it up to politics."
The battle he's fought since his first day on the job in 2009 is the accusation that he's a rich Wall Street guy who doesn't understand the culture of public housing.
"I lost friends before I was 17 to gun violence who are dead. We buried them. Before I even graduated from high school. I had friends who committed suicide because of the conditions that they were living in in their own homes or in their communities," Rhea says. "I know what pain is."
Rhea says that caricature is inaccurate. He grew up in an urban renewal area of Detroit, down the street from the projects.
"So when people say 'he doesn't understand it. He's some Wall Street guy that doesn't know what's needed,' I literally don't recognize who they're talking about," Rhea says. "At the same time, I appreciate that people want to know that you do understand the condition -- that you empathize."
Rhea says he got into trouble as a kid.
"I did things. I stole my parents car twice, one time crashed it. One time got arrested at 13 years old. I did things that young people do," Rhea says.
He says his father was a furniture salesman and his mother worked in a medical lab.Rhea credits their insistence on education, along with the priests at his jesuit high school, with his ability to focus on school and later become successful.
"Not only did they care about you in terms of your academic development., but they cared about your personal development, your soul. your character as an individual. what is it that you're going to do to actually make a contribution to this planet? and i began to take that seriously."
Rhea went on to study and play football at Wesleyan University.
At Harvard Business School he befriended a young law student named Barack Obama. Rhea would later host Obama's first presidential fundraiser in New York.
Rhea thrived for two decades in the financial sector. In 2009 he had to make a choice -- work for the president in a job Rhea did not specify or work for the city of New York.
"When the mayor offered me the opportunity to lead NYCHA, and I looked at the population that NYCHA serves, it was a no brainer for me. Also, the president was pushing, at that time, to get the stimulus package through and i knew that quite a bit of that potential would go to cities like New York. So I felt that I could do a lot for the president and his agenda off of a platform like NYCHA," Rhea says. "Let's face it, he was a community organizer in the south side of Chicago in public housing."
Rhea is the most public face of NYCHA, and is eloquent in discussing the Authority's mission.
But perhaps harkening back to his job as a corrugator in a Detroit paper company while in high school, he knows the real work in public housing is done on the front line.
"It's the woman who is working in a NYCHA development in Brownsville in the dark, either early in morning or late at night, in a compactor room by herself that are the true heroes and she-roes," Rhea says. "Those are the people who are doing the real jobs."
But you also need someone to lead the charge, to negotiate with the financial world at a time of government cutbacks.
Rhea says he was brought in by Bloomberg to be an agent of change. There may be questions about those changes -- about NYCHA and about Rhea -- but not from the man himself.
"This decision to come into public service was a leap of faith," Rhea says. "That if I did this, if I left millions of dollars on the table by doing this job, which I do by being in this job, that's an investment not only in myself, in terms of what I'm contributing, but hopefully I'm making a difference by spending some period of my life trying to do something that's bigger, being associated with something larger than myself."

Exhibition Silver Age at the Belvedere Museum in Vienna – until 28 September 2014
Russian Art in Vienna around 1900
The Belvedere's exhibition Silver Age - Russian Art in Vienna around 1900, scheduled for summer 2014, is devoted to Russian art and the cultural relations between Russia and Austria at the beginning of the twentieth century. The term Silver Age refers to the cultural bloom in Russian literature and the visual arts after 1900 and is considered an equivalent to the German expression Jugendstil or Art Nouveau.
The exhibition Silver Age - Russian Art in Vienna around 1900 presents works by such Russian artists as Michail Vrubel, Valentin Serov, Nicholas Roerich, and Boris Kustodiev, whose pictures were on display in Vienna more than one hundred years ago, and illustrates the mutual influences of this cultural exchange between Russian and Austrian art.

Exhibition And yet there was Art! at the Leopold Museum in Vienna – from 9 May to 15 September 2014
Austria 1914–1918
The assassination of the Austrian heir to the throne, Archduke Franz Ferdinand, on the 28th of June 1914 in Sarajevo was the fatal trigger of World War I. One hundred years on, the Leopold Museum is dedicating a comprehensive exhibition to the fate of Austrian artists (Egon Schiele, Albin Egger-Lienz, Anton Kolig, Kolo Moser, Gustav Klimt...) who were active between 1914 and 1918.
Selected works by contemporary artists from Italy, Romania, Russia and Serbia – the countries that Austria-Hungary fought on the frontlines during World War I – create a connection to the present. Presented in the exhibition are 200 works, 40 of which hail from the collection of the Leopold Museum, 30 from the Leopold Collection II and 130 from public and private Austrian and international lenders. The historical objects are complemented by contemporary art interventions.
Exhibition Toward the light at the Museum Künstlerkolonie, Mathildenhöhe in Darmstadt – from 17 May to 14 September 2014
TOWARD THE LIGHT The Artists' Colony Exhibition of 1914
The anniversary exhibition to Artists' Colony Exhibition of 1914 at the Mathildenhöhe (on the day exactly 100 years after this last historic Great Exhibition after the ones in 1901, 1904 and 1908 - presents with works by Albin Müller, Bernhard Hoetger, Elizabeth Duncan, Friedrich Wilhelm Kleukens, Emanuel Josef Margold, Arnold Mendelssohn and Heinrich Jobst the whole spectrum of creative work from architecture and painting to sculpture and applied arts to music and dance. Historical documents and works of art highlight the importance of this exhibition before the great war.
To bring alive the spirit of the Artists' Colony Exhibition of 1914, the Künstlerkolonie Museum (Artists' Colony Museum) presents both paintings, sculptures, drawings, jewelry and photographs from the Municipal Art Collection of Darmstadt as well as valuable loans from public and private collections. They bear witness to the unbroken optimism of modernity, which ruled in the Darmstadt Artists' Colony until the outbreak of the First World War and which is still noticeable on the Mathildenhöhe.
Curator of the exhibition: Dr. Philipp Gutbrod, collection curator and curator, Institute Mathildenhöhe
Antoni Gaudi, Victor Horta and l'Ecole de Nancy highlighted in the Fèvres Magazine dedicated to Art Nouveau and the ironwork
