(KTSF by Jessie Liang)
San Francisco has received the distinction as the "greenest" city in North America in the first North American Green Cities Index. San Francisco was ranked ahead of New York, Seattle, Denver and Boston as the top five "greenest" U.S. cities. The research study compares 27 major U.S. and Canadian cities on environmental performance and policies across nine categories – CO2 emissions, energy, land use, buildings, transport, water, waste, air quality and environmental governance.
San Francisco's strongest area is waste. According to Melanie Nutter, Director of San Francisco Department of Environment, "We right now divert about 77% our waste from landfill. That means 77% of our waste either recycled composted or reused."
One of the City's resident says, "Composting is found definitely at all the city buildings, all the municipal buildings and the residential areas." She also says, "Especially in the civic center, we know they have all electric cars in the garage down below. They have a ton of electric cars there they are using for the city use."
The city also claimed second place in buildings, transport and air, bolstered by strong green building and energy efficiency building standards. Nutter says, "We're working very aggressively on energy efficiency programs as well on renewable energy programs to ensure we can bring down the energy use in buildings while helping businesses and residences save money on their energy bill."
The other green programs that the City is running include GoSolarSF, Solar@Work, to install more EV charging stations at the City's property parking lots, graywater program and etc.
The resident is also supportive to the City's green policies and says, "They have been making efforts to do more bypass and to help with parking and use of cars, using public transportation instead. I think is great. I think we should be doing more stuff, so I would support of it."

You know what would be really cool?
If Julian Assange got together with Fox Mulder. I bet he could be REALLY helpful to Mulder.
With WikiLeaks uncovering all these government secrets, I guess they won't be able to hide the secret alien stuff anymore.
All these people accuse Obama of not being born in America. Hell, how do we even know he's from EARTH??????
You know that's the story I'm going to go with. Despite his rudeness towards Assange, Obama IS a good guy. It's just that he's from another planet, and he needs to keep that a secret. So of course he's going to lash out.

Left Right Left
Description: The basic story of the movie revolves around P.K. Jayan aka 'Vattu' Jayan, Kaitheri Sahadevan (a megalo-maniacal communist leader) and Roy Joseph aka Che Guevera Roy. Vattu Jayan is a corrupt cop who manages his daily necessities through bribed money and does not touch his salary for anything. Che Guevara Roy is an ex-communist comrade who now teaches in a school with his wife. The movie boldly delves into the dichotomy of the political ideology of communism and exposes how angularities in perception, pre-dispositions developed during one's childhood, esoteric gimmicks and crafty double speak has become the order of the day in politics.

The Last Mountain
… In the hollows of Appalachia, under repeated assault from the region's dominant coal industry, a movement for change has been germinated. Surrounded by over one million acres of horrific devastation, an unlikely coalition of Americans have come together to save their community. The Last Mountain follows their journey of anger, insight, achievement and inspiration.
- Bill Haney, director / co-writer, The Last Mountain
The Last Mountain documents the conflict between a group of West Virginia residents struggling to protect their health and environment, and the coal company utilizing the destructive practice of mountaintop removal in their community. The movie was selected to be screened at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival in January, and the movie trailer earned the coveted title of "favorite trailer" from viewers on the Timberland / 2011 Sundance Film Festival page. See for yourself:
And now, the film is available to those of us who didn't catch it at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival; The Last Mountain debuts this Friday at Landmark Theatres in New York and Washington, D.C., and will appear in cities across the U. S. over the next few months. Click here for a complete list of cities and dates.
To learn more about the issue and how you can take action to help stop mountaintop removal mining, visit The Last Mountain web site.
Still Living the Corporate Dream: A First-Timer's Take on OR
What do you get when you put a ton of high-tech outdoor gear, dogs, beer, fashion shows, bicycle-powered blenders and outdoor-loving people from all over together? Some call it Outdoor Retailer, I call it utopia.
So I got my wish. After going on my first business trip to New York, I got the opportunity to go out West when the timing of my Utah ski vacation collided with the Sundance Film Festival. Since I've never been, I made a point to stop by Outdoor Retailer before heading to the Timberland Retreat in Park City.
While on vacation, I was able to ski the challenging, powdery terrain that Utah has to offer. Wearing my Mount Holly Earthkeepers on the way to Snowbird – wouldn't head to the mountain without them!
I had heard about the size of the OR show and the beauty of Utah's snow-covered mountains, but seeing both for the first time blew me away. Three things shocked me from the moment I stepped off the plane:
1. The Mountains: My jaw hit the cab floor when I laid my eyes on the most amazing, majestic looking mountains I'd ever seen surrounding Salt Lake City. The taxi driver must have thought I was crazy as I babbled on about how beautiful they were and how fantastic the skiing must be while practically bouncing out of my seat with excitement. What he didn't know was that I was a first-time visitor from New Hampshire who arrived in Utah with visions of the Green and White Mountain ranges as a reference point.
View of the mountains from Salt Lake City
2. The Booths at the OR Show: While feeling like a kid in a candy store (brand new ski tech around every corner), I couldn't get over the number of brands present and the sheer size of the booths. Some booths, including Timberland's, had enormous columns and panels climbing to the convention center ceiling.
3. The Business of the Outdoor Industry: OR was very different from the consumer shows and expos I've been to where vendors show and sell their products directly to consumers. At OR, there were private meeting rooms in most of the booths where buyers and merchandisers from outdoor stores were reviewing the new products and placing orders for the fall 2011 season. There were also a lot editors from media outlets checking out the new products and trends for next fall.
While walking around the convention center, one of the coolest things I noticed was the abundance of recycled and eco-conscious elements on the show floor. The Timberland booth featured bike-powered blenders to make smoothies. One brand showcased their footwear on reused cardboard cylinders and another vendor constructed their entire booth from cardboard tubes and other packing waste left over from the initial setup day. In addition to displaying their sweet new gear, some brands even had signage about environmental causes to which they donate a percentage of their profits. It was clear (and relieving) to see that like Timberland, lots of outdoor companies are into protecting the outdoors. How eco-awesome is that?
Overall, post-Utah I can still say that I'm living the corporate dream. And with partial thanks to my first OR experience, it's official – I work in most exciting industry on the planet!
Oh, and the skiing wasn't so bad either…
View from the chairlift of one of the first runs I took at Snowbird. It was just as epic as it looks.

What in the world is this week's Dreamland show all about? It's about what happens when you bring one of the world's leading mythologists, William Henry together with conspiracy expert Jim Marrs and they discuss why Saddam Hussein was spending billions of dollars to rebuild Babylon. You will never, ever hear anything like this on any other program anywhere. It's one of the most amazing shows we've ever done.
Then Linda Howe tells us about those geysers that have been erupting in Oklahoma. Dreamland at its finest!
In addition to the above, Whitley Strieber launches into a stunning description of the way the grays breathe and why he thinks they might be machines rather than living beings. He goes on to mention that there are many hours of close encounter he's never written or spoken about, and promises to let us in on some of this material soon! An altogether extraordinary program.

Get started learning Photoshop with these beginner tutorials on tools, features, and basic techniques. Learn how to crop, rotate, resize, create basic shapes, add text, understand layers, and more. I have broken down the complete tutorials into two parts.
Part 1 covers
- Photoshop workspace
- Viewing and Zooming Images
- Layers
- Image Adjustments.
For those who don't know what Photoshop is, I would put it as a tool which helps you to express your creative self. It is a very powerful tool used by professionals like Photographers, Animators, Designers alike. As they say Creativity has no limits, what you can achieve after learning Photoshop has no limits! I would recommend going through all videos, practicing on Photoshop side by side before going thorough website tutorials.
Here are a few examples of images that have been created in Photoshop by experts. You can create some amazing digital images too by the end of these tutorials.
This movie introduces Adobe Photoshop CS6, the application photographers, graphic designers, web designers, videographers, and 3D artists use to enhance and manipulate photos and create original digital art.
When Adobe introduced Photoshop CS6, it came with a whole new look; designed to put the focus on your designs. Let Infinite Skills author, Andy Anderson guide you this new look, and why it's going to help you become more efficient.
With all the panels in Adobe Photoshop, it's sometimes difficult to quickly get to where you want to go. Let Infinite Skills author, Andy Anderson show you how to organize your panels to get the best mix for the job at hand.
Adobe Photoshop boasts tons of panels and features… But do you really need them all open at the same time? Let Infinite Skills author, Andy Anderson show you how to create workspaces that reduce the clutter, and help you get the job done.
NAPP Instructor Corey Barker goes over how to take the presets that you have in Photoshop CS5 and earlier and get them ready to move into Photoshop CS6 with it's new migration features.
Photoshop CS6 now includes powerful features in backup and autorecovery. From changing the frequency between background saving to working while you save an image, these tools will prove to be invaluable and time efficient for creative artists.
I have put some examples in between to give to some ideas on what can be done in Photoshop.
The best way to work on your images in Adobe Photoshop is to work in the best view, and Infinite Skills author, Andy Anderson will show how to get the best view for the job at hand.
Have you ever worked on an image, and wished it were a bit bigger? Well, that's what the Zoom tool is for, and Infinite Skills author, Andy Anderson, will show you some creative touches to this standard Photoshop tool.
It's hard to think of using Adobe Photoshop without the Layers panel. Let Infinite Skills author, Andy Anderson run you the options and features of this invaluable panel.
In this movie author Julieanne Kost discusses the features and abilities of layers in Photoshop. She covers renaming layers, toggling between layers, converting layers to Smart Objects, deleting layers, changing the opacity of a layer, and saving a layered image.
Most designers equate aligning objects with applications such as Adobe Illustrator; however, Photoshop has its own alignment feature that allows the user to align image information quickly and precisely.
Ever have a problem moving a layer… Or just being able to create transparency. The chances are you're not on a layer; you're on the Background. Let Infinite Skills author, Andy Anderson, explain the difference between backgrounds and layers.
Got too many layers? Want to make one layer out of three… or more? Then merging is what you need. Let Infinite Skills author, Andy Anderson show you how to merge layers, and what happens after you do.
Blending modes are one of the most creative areas in Photoshop. Let Infinite Skills author, Andy Anderson, take you on a tour of this amazing area in Adobe Photoshop.
If you are looking for a quick fix to improve your image quality, this lesson is for you. You'll learn about the automatic color correction functions in Photoshop.
Photoshop CS6 has been vastly improved to speed up your workflow. In improving Auto corrections, your images are now processed faster, giving you more time to experiment and be creative.
In Adobe Photoshop non-destructive editing is the way to go, and Adjustment Layers give you the ability to make changes and then "change" your mind; even days later. Let Infinite Skills author, Andy Anderson, show you how they work.
This lesson will guide you through a basic workflow for optimizing the overall tone and color in your digital images.
This lesson will guide you through a basic workflow for optimizing the overall tone and color in your digital images.
When it comes to adjusting images, Levels can help you do everything from simple lightening or darkening of an image, to increasing overall contrast. Infinite Skills author, Andy Anderson will guide you through the basics of this indispensible tool.
Three basics of image adjustment are discussed here by Infinite Skills author, Andy Anderson. The Dodge tool (lightening), The Burn tool (darkening), and the Sponge Tool (color saturation).

Hope you had a great time learning the basic of Photoshop till now. We will cover more of the tutorials in PART 2. Follow me to get updated when I publish the PART 2 of the tutorials.

Thank you to everyone who came out with me on Saturday to celebrate the incredibly depressing achievement of reaching the age of 25 - I am almost certainly now over a quarter of the way through my life :-S But anyway, many thanks are also due to St Martin's Lane for hosting us! The fabulous room upgrade, the Wii, the champagne, the meal at Asia de Cuba and then the dancing at Bungalow 8. Oh, and the 5am room service call... It's like a partying Mecca, with no need to go outside to soil my new Pradas.
At around 4.30am things got a little bit too much for some people...
My birthday outfit consisted of:
Black patent creeper by Prada
Black slim-fitted trousers by Jean-Charles de Castelbajac
Floral print t-shirt by Jil Sander
Spiked necklaced worn as bracelet, and a spike ring by Maria Francesca Pepe

Angela Patrick has practiced Bikram yoga since 2006 and has taught since 2009. In 2004, she fractured her spine while training her horse. In the three years before she found Bikram yoga she experienced a lot of pain left over from her injury. She tried all sorts of pain relief methods, none of which worked until she found Bikram yoga. Angela took over as studio owner of Bikram Yoga West Linn in 2012.
"It has saved my life both physically and mentally. Yoga continues to challenge me and I am always learning. I am able to do things I never would have thought possible.
It really is never too late nor are you too young, old or sick to start over and begin again. I have seen many breakthroughs as a teacher and am grateful for the opportunity to guide students through their practice. Thank you to all my teachers, students and family for supporting me in my quest for health and happiness."

Title: A little bigger than I expected.
Date: Nov 22, 2011
I absolutely adore the puppy ear headband, but the ears a longer than I expected and they seem huge compared to my one year old's head. Still cute, I just wish I would have gotten the shorter spotted ears...

Full Mail Server Solution w/ Virtual Domains & Users - Page 03 (Postfix on the MX Servers - Installation)
Submitted by Vecter (Contact Author) (Forums) on Wed, 2007-10-17 20:26. ::
IV. Postfix on the Mail Exchange Servers
A. Re-building Postfix
The version of Postfix included in the Debian Etch distribution has broken quota support. We're going to need to re-build it for quotas to work. This re-build process should NOT be done on the actual production MX servers. Have a seperate server sitting on the side (Or even just a seperate Virtual Machine in Xen) for performing build-tasks. Our server for this task is build.internal.example.com. On that server, install the needed build tools:
# apt-get install build-essential dpkg-dev fakeroot debhelper libgdbm-dev libldap2-dev libpcre3-dev libssl-dev libsasl2-dev postgresql-dev po-debconf dpatch libdb4.3-dev libmysqlclient15-dev lsb-release libcdb-dev
Then go ahead and download the source to the Postfix package:
# cd /usr/src
NOTE: Make sure you're using the correct Postfix version with the following commands! This was written against Postfix 2.3.8. You can determine you're current running postfix version by typing this at the prompt:
# postconf -d | grep mail_version
The output should look like:
# postconf -d | grep mail_version
Assuming everything is good to go (and you've got the right versions), grab the quota patch:
# wget http://vda.sourceforge.net/VDA/postfix-2.3.8-vda.patch.gz
You then need to unzip the patch, and apply it to the new
# gunzip postfix-2.3.8-vda.patch.gz
And then finally, rebuild the patched-package:
# dpkg-buildpackage
You may see a warning like this at the end of the dpkg-buildpackage command:
(Warning: Failed to sign .dsc and .changes file)
You can safely ignore this message.
This new rebuild will result in multiple packages being built, you want to copy postfix_2.3.8-1_i386.deb and postfix-mysql_2.3.8-2_i386.deb to your mail exchangers (MX-1 and MX-2). You are then ready to install!
B. Installing Postfix
Since we are using a Debian-based system, installing Postfix
is a walk in the park. This subsection assumes you're working on Mail
Exchanger 1 (mx-1.example.com), if you're working on MX-2, just
the server name in any config files, and you should be
# dpkg -i postfix_2.3.8-2_i386.deb
If/when the auto-configuration asks you questions about postfix during the installation, just select "No Configuration" (Since you're using this guide, you're going to configure it yourself!)
dpkg is going to install all of the configuration files for Postfix into /etc/postfix, so go there, and create the file main.cf:
# cd /etc/postfix
The main.cf file can be edited using two different methods. You can use your favorite text editor, or you can use the built-in postfix toolpostconf. We've already used postconf once to determine our version in subsection IV.A above.
The real benefit of the postconf tool is that it has some built in error checking, and it eliminates the possibility of 'weirdness' due to carriage returns, line feeds, odd quotes, etc. We'll be using it in this guide, but there really is no requirement.
Start by filling in the basic information:
# postconf -e 'myhostname =

Shifting Perspectives: Gearing your Balance Druid at 80
Greetings, fellow Druids, and welcome to another installment on Wrath gear at 80, and this week it's the boomkins' turn. Next week I'm going to tackle Bear gear at 80; Dan O'Halloran will take care of our Cat colleagues.
As a number of people have observed, it's tougher to get +hit-capped pre-raid in leather as opposed to cloth, so you're going to find an awful lot of cloth on the list. I realize this represents a new and exciting development in the history of moonkin itemization. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose. That's French for "We're screwed."
Supplementary reading:
- Elitist Jerks' threads on Balance trinkets, Moonkin DPS spreadsheet, general issues, and Balance talents and specs.
- As a note here concerning the recent news on Improved Faerie Fire (in a nutshell, you'll get the 3% crit no matter whose FF is up on a target, even a feral's), Gray Matter on why the talent's worth taking, and Macbook on the raid circumstances in which it might not be.
If you've read the Restoration piece, you'll be familiar with how I'm organizing gear for these guides, but for the sake of reference:
Best overall: If there's one piece that's just better than anything else you can get, I'll have it listed here. Most of these will cost you Emblems of Heroism or a truckload of gold, however.
Best drop/s: Self-explanatory, the best (typically heroic) 5-man drops you can get.
Best quest piece: Also self-explanatory, but fair warning -- if you're looking to get most of your pieces outside of 5-mans, many of the quests rewarding the best pieces are linked to dungeons (usually normal) or group quests.
Best faction piece: If a quartermaster offers a usable piece, it'll be here. You'll get convenience at the cost of having to deal with pieces that are usually a dog's breakfast of caster stats, though.
Runner-up: This is kind of a catch-all term for good, usable, or even excellent pieces you can get by other means. If there's a blue or epic BoE piece floating around the AH, or a workhorse 5-man drop you can also use, it'll be here. Some of the pieces in the runner-up slot may seem odd for inclusion there (e.g. epics like raid BoE's), but as far as I'm concerned, if it's going to cost you a metric ton of gold to get them, they are firmly optional. You do not need to be equipped in full epics to raid as long as you're not lazy about enchants and gems.
Enchant: Just in case you have any gold left after gearing up. You won't, but it's nice to dream!
With respect to item weight, I'm prioritizing +hit, then +spellpower, +haste, then +crit, in accordance with balance theorycraft concerning maximum-DPS builds.
Best drop: Battlemap Hide Helm, off Prince Keleseth in heroic Utgarde Keep.
Best quest piece: Cowl of the Vindictive Captive, from the quest Vengeance Be Mine! in Utgarde Pinnacle if you're hit-capped. If you're not, use The Argent Skullcap, from the quest The Crusaders' Pinnacle.
Best faction piece: Helm of the Majestic Stag, available at honored with the Kirin Tor. This is really not a Balance piece, but it's the only helm you'll be able to get from a faction if all else fails.
Runner-up: Hat of Wintry Doom, a BoE piece from Tailoring.
Enchant: Arcanum of Burning Mysteries, available at revered with the Kirin Tor.
Meta: Chaotic Skyflare Diamond. Some prefer the Ember Skyflare, however.
Best overall: Encircling Burnished Gold Chains, available for 25 emblems of heroism.
Best drop: Necklace of Taldaram, from Prince Taldaram in heroic Old Kingdom.
Best quest piece: Emeline's Locket, from the quest The Admiral Revealed in Icecrown.
Best faction piece: n/a. You're out of luck here.
Runner-up: Titanium Spellshock Necklace, a Jewelcrafting BoE.
Best drop: Spaulders of Krystallus, from Krystallus in heroic Halls of Stone.
Best quest piece: Mantle of the Flesh Giant, from the quest The Flesh Giant Champion in Icecrown. If you prefer +crit to +haste, use Shoulderpads of the Adventurer, from the quest Halls of Stone in (where else?) Halls of Stone.
Best faction piece: n/a. Another dead slot.
Runner-up: Dark Runic Mantle, a BoE drop from heroic Halls of Stone, or Purehorn Spaulders, a Leatherworking BoE.
Enchant: Greater Inscription of the Storm, available at exalted with the Sons of Hodir, unless you're a level 400+ Inscriptionist and have access to Master's Inscription of the Storm.

Down in the bakery, Shelley and Grace work the ovens and roll the dough for their cane-wielding captor-commandants. Earlier in the episode, Shelley overheard Kit and Grace plotting another escape plan. Now, she corners Grace and asks to join. But Grace has no grace for Shelley. Why should she care about her freedom, anyway? She's just going to waste it on "screwing more guys." Shelley gets haughty. "Did you think as a little girl I thought I would spent my life wasting away in the bug house?! I want to go to Paris. France! They're 20 years ahead of us! Here I am a freak! There I would be celebrated! Didn't you ever read Delta of Venus!? Anais Nin embraced her sexuality, without apology! You're from France! You must know what I'm talking about." But Grace says she only lived in France until she was nine, and she leaves Shelley to dangle. And so the slow-moving mystery of Shelley's identity inches forward…
Anais Nin is a provocative reference. Shelley is correct in her characterization – Nin challenged sexual taboos and wrote powerfully, uniquely about Feminist concerns – although I'm not sure if Shelley makes for the best Nin acolyte. (But then, disciples rarely flatter their masters. Or mistresses.) But there's another story from Nin's life that intersects with this episode, and it didn't occur in France. It happened in Hollywood, in the wake of a famed masquerade party built around the theme "Come As Your Madness." Nin showed up, looking a lot like this. Among the guests was one Kenneth Anger, an avant garde filmmaker and author of a notorious, suppressed book of celebrity gossip called Hollywood Babylon. Anger is also famous for many other things, like being a provocateur with a furious antipathy toward mainstream culture. Oh, something of a Satanist, too. Specifically, a Thelema believer. The story goes that "Come As Your Madness" party was among the inspirations for Anger's 1961 short film Inaguration of the Pleasure Dome. It's a surreal, symbolic work, depicting an "occult Eucharist" awash with Jungian shadow creatures, pagan deities (Astarte, Isis, Lilith, The Scarlet Woman) and imbibing consciousness-altering substances, Anais Nin in her "Come As Your Madness" costume, and an apocalyptic orgy that unleashes a new age of (Satanic) liberation… or fiery armageddon. Not sure. One of the most fascinating things about Anger is his belief that cinema is basically… well, Satanic. From a bio, posted on Anger's website: "Offering a description of himself for the program of a 1966 screening, Kenneth Anger stated his 'lifework' as being Magick and his 'magical weapon' the cinematograph. A follower of Aleister Crowley's teachings, Anger is a high level practitioner of occult magic who regards the projection of his films as ceremonies capable of invoking spiritual forces. Cinema, he claims, is an evil force. Its point is to exert control over people and events and his filmmaking is carried out with precisely that intention."
Does any of this have anything to do with American Horror Story: Asylum? Better question: SHOULD IT?! But at least now you know why these recaps post so late.
It's right about the time that the Nor'easter/extraterrestrial maelstrom reaches Briarcliff that Sister Judge begins to unravel. She's watching the fireworks out her window when the phone rings. It's a voice from the past. It's The Innocent. "You left me there. … You never even bothered to get out of the car." Sister Jude stops fighting and surrenders to the judgment, at least for a moment. "I'm sorry," she says. And the line goes dead. Where did this phone call come from? Did it all take place in her tortured mind? Was it a Sister Mary trick? Or is it possible another force altogether is meddling with Sister Jude, like, say... alien-angels? The battle for Sister Jude's soul could very well be a two-front war, maybe more.
Sister Jude sees a pair of glasses on the desk. It's the girl's glasses. Cracked. And with that, Sister Jude cracks. She slumps, defeated. Without looking, as if operating on instinct, she reaches for the bottle of wine. She imbibes. All of it. Until she's blurry-eyed drunk. Her head full of spirits – her consciousness altered – Sister Jude descends the stairway to heaven to the common room rowdy with crazies of all stripes – a proverbial "Come As Your Madness" masquerade, except the inanity is painfully, no-joke legit. The lady nursing the toy baby? Creepy.
Sister Mary blows her whistle. And movie night begins.
She starts with an invocation – a blessing for the pleasure dome. She makes it sound like something grand is at stake, something like a reformation or cultural revolution. "Welcome one and all to Briarcliff Manor's inaugural movie night," says Sister Judy. "Whether this evening marks the beginning of a beloved tradition, or just another bitter disappointment, is entirely up to you."
Sister Jude reads the rest of her introduction from notes, although she ad libs a potshot at the end. "Now settle in, relax and return with me to ancient Rome, as we present the 1932 Ceil B. Demille classic The Sign of The Cross, starring Ms. Claudette Colbert as the Empress…" -- she struggles to properly say "Poppaea," make it sound "Propia" -- and as the Emperor Nero, the incomparable Mr. Charles Laughton… who, I understand, is an enormous whoopsie." Sounds like someone's been reading too much Hollywood Babylon.
It's at this moment that we get a violent crack of thunder and lightening, as Sister Jude's Laughton-bashing was offensive to Heaven itself. The inmates squirm. "Don't be afraid of the dark!" Sister Jude commands, then tries to comfort them further with the saddest rendition "You'll Never Walk Alone" ever drunk-warbled. The tune comes Carousel, a musical about a dead man who earns his way into Heaven by returning to Earth and minster to his lonely, bitter daughter. As Sister Jude gets to "you'll never walk alone," she remembers the lonely, bitter girl who haunts her like a ghost, trying to goose her toward redemption. Sister Jude stops singing, and breaks into a stream-of-conscious ramble, empathizing with The Innocent's perspective. "But she was all alone… dying…" She says more (I couldn't hear it, for technical reasons), then regains composure. "Lights!" she commands, and the common room goes dim. She leaves the Common Room to hunt The Mexican, who has gone mysteriously missing, and Sister Mary scoots to the front row to better enjoy the black and white mass of camp sensationalism about to unspool.

Since you never know when you might be in urgent need of a crumble, I make up enough for at least four and let it sit safely in the deep freeze until required. Sprinkle over your fruit of choice as it is and cook from frozen. Could scarcely be any easier, could it?
As for the fruit, I take all chopping out of the equation and give it parity with the crumble topping by using frozen mixed summer fruits; "jumbleberry" is just an old English term for whatever mixture of berries were used in jams or puddings or jellies.
Put the flour and baking powder into a bowl and rub in the cubes of butter with your fingers until you have a mixture like coarse sand. This is such a small amount, it's not really worth getting out the heavy machinery.
Stir in the sugar and then put into a freezer bag to freeze.
This mixture would make 4 jumbleberry crumbles in the cups, and about 8 ramekins.

As the end of the school year approaches, so is the Indiana Wesleyan University Wildcats' baseball season as the team heads toward the MCC Tournament in May.
The Wildcats went against Goshen College in a doubleheader on March 31, losing the first game 4-3. The Wildcats fell behind in the second game as well, but some seventh-inning heroics in the form of four runs brought IWU to a 7-6 victory.
"Losing the first game kind of put us in our place," pitcher Michael Caley (jr) said. "We knew our backs were against the wall and that they could beat us, and we kind of came together in the last inning and knew we had to beat them."
The Goshen games brought IWU's overall record to 14-17. Coach Chad Newhard said his team still has more work to do.
"We just have to continue to play good baseball," Newhard said. "I think every game is important for us. Every win we can win is helpful for us. We can't ever overlook anyone, and we make sure we are playing at a high level every day."
The win against Goshen was important, just like every game, because MCC teams must be in the top five in conference standings at season's end to be in the tournament. The Wildcats are currently in a tie for fourth with Mount Vernon Nazarene, Grace and Marian with a record of 6-6 in the MCC.
Caley said he isn't worried about making it to the tournament just yet, but instead about each individual game.
"I think as a team we need to focus on playing the best baseball we can play," said Caley. "And when we play to the best of our abilities, there aren't many teams that can beat us. We beat Spring Arbor, the best team in the nation."
Spring Arbor University has an MCC record of 9-3, second only to Taylor University. IWU played the Cougars in two doubleheaders, resulting in a pair of splits.
Wildcat catcher Alex Ridlen (sr) said the team has great chemistry, and it's that chemistry and hard work that will move IWU forward to the MCC tournament.
"For all of us, a major goal is just to be the hardest-working guys out there because we know that if we're going to beat teams, we're going to have to work harder than them," Ridlen said. "We're looking to win 21 games at conference because that's what we're looking to have to get into tournament."
Newhard said the team continues to practice every day and sometimes even has an extra practice in the morning. But his main focus is keep the team's dynamic together and in the right direction.
"We are a true essence of a team," Newhard said. "If we are to have success, our offense and defense need to play at a high level instead of getting caught up in 'what I'm doing.' We need to get caught up in 'what we're doing.'"

Whites and Blacks With Alzheimer's Equally Likely to Die Prematurely
Posted By admin On December 23, 2009 @ 11:00 am In Articles,Diagnosis and Causes | No Comments
December 23, 2009
People with Alzheimer's disease tend to die earlier than their mentally intact, age-matched peers. So do those with mild cognitive impairment, or MCI, a form of memory loss that sometimes precedes Alzheimer's. Both whites and blacks seem to be equally affected, according to a new study out of Rush University Medical Center in Chicago.
"Data from two national surveys suggest that life expectancy among patients with Alzheimer's disease may be greater for African Americans than for whites," the authors noted. But in the current report, Robert S. Wilson, Ph.D., and colleagues at Rush found that both groups were at equally increased risk of early death. The findings appeared in the June issue of Archives of Neurology, one of the journals from the American Medical Association.
The researchers studied 1,715 older adults, average age 80, living in four neighborhoods in Chicago. About half were African-American. All were given a thorough medical checkup that included a neurologic exam as well as tests of thinking and memory.
At the start of the study, about one in six, or 296, were given a diagnosis of Alzheimer's; another 20 had another form of dementia. About one in three, or 597, were diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment. Just under half, or 802, remained mentally alert.
Doctors continued to evaluate the study participants over the next 10 years. During that time, 634 individuals, or 37 percent, died. The overall death rate consisted of 25 percent of those without cognitive impairment; 40 percent of those with mild cognitive impairment; 59 percent of those with Alzheimer's disease; and 60 percent of those with other forms of dementia.
"Compared with people without cognitive impairment, risk of death was increased by about 50 percent among those with mild cognitive impairment and was nearly three-fold greater among those with Alzheimer's disease," the authors wrote. "These effects were seen among African Americans and whites and did not differ by race."
Among individuals with mild cognitive impairment, the risk of death increased as cognitive impairment became more severe, another association that did not differ by race. A similar association between disease severity and survival was seen among patients with Alzheimer's disease, although that effect was slightly stronger for African Americans than for whites.
"Overall, these results do not suggest strong racial differences in survival for persons with mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease," the authors concluded.

1 order of Binondo Mami with 1 Iced Tea, valid in 6 branches (valued at P186)
If you are so used to eating instant noodles, then you probably forgot how authentic noodles taste like; or you probably don't even know. Ma Chicken Mami House now brings you Binondo Mami, cooked the way real mami should be.
What's the secret to "real" mami? The broth of this special mami alone already requires a lot of work. Bones of chicken, pork or beef are simmered for several hours to capture the full flavor of meat. This is how real soup should be made and Ma Chicken Mami House does just that. Your bowl of noodles and soup is topped by a combination of egg, green onions, roasted pork, pork siomai and chicken strips. If you have no time to cook at home or if you think that Chinese restaurants are too expensive, you will definitely love Ma Chicken Mami House. While the Binondo Mami is their most special and popular noodle dish, its menu also includes special siopao buns that go perfectly well with the dish, as well as other noodle variants. If you are more of a rice person, special rice toppings are also available on the menu. Save your instant noodles for emergencies; for authentic Chinese noodles at its best, try the Binondo Mami at Ma Chicken Mami House and your taste buds will soon lose their taste for anything less.

An Interview with Walter Graham – "Fluoride: Killing you One Drop at a Time" – #185
Walter Graham was instrumental in getting fluoride out of the waters of Northern Ireland, where he lives. He led marches to Stormont and the Health Board, appearing on TV, radio and press. He was elected PR spokesman for the coalition of councils of Northern Ireland Against Fluoridation. He has given talks across Ireland, most recently for the National Health Federation and at Truth Agenda conferences in Dublin and Dundalk, He clearly shows you how fluoridation makes no sense and is dangerous to health, explaining why 98% of Europe rejected it and what you can do to protect your family and help end the practice of drugging the people through their drinking water.
Walter Graham had been working in pharmaceutical marketing when the government announced the fluoridation scheme. All drugs have side-effects and yet the Gov. claimed that fluoride had none…an obvious lie.

Ecology Denies ORPC's Petition
On March 18th, ORPC was notified that Ecology denied our petition. Although it has been very disappointing and disheartening to learn that our good faith effort, with broad community wide support, to work with Ecology has been denied; rest assured that ORPC will continue to pursue its goal of arriving at a lawful, balanced and effective way to manage our water resources.
Ecology Petitioned to Amend Burdensome Water Rule
On January 21, 2014, the Olympic Resource Protection Council (ORPC) filed a petition with the Department of Ecology (DOE) to amend the Dungeness Water Management Rule.
ORPC has been critical of the rule because of its significant and unnecessarily costly impacts on Clallam County residents seeking to develop or redevelop their properties consistent with established county land use designations and planning policies. Given the recent ruling by the WA Supreme Court in the Swinomish v. Ecology case, ORPC has further concerns regarding the lack of legal authority for the rule.
In summary, ORPC states that DOE's recent approach to instream flow rulemaking has caused widespread legal uncertainty.
ORPC urges DOE to amend the rule and work with all stakeholders to craft a balanced, effective and lawful water management rule for the Dungeness Basin.
ORPC has asked DOE to use its alternate, existing reservation authority to set aside a sufficient quantity of groundwater, as required under the Water Resources Act, to meet the demand for domestic water under the County's long-range land use planning instead of utilizing "overriding considerations of the public interest" (OCPI) to create a reservation. Ecology's current use of the OCPI exception was rejected by the Washington State Supreme Court in the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community v. Skagit County decision in October 2013.
The petition process is afforded under RCW 34.05.330 and requires the agency to provide a written response within 60 days of receipt. Under this statute the agency must choose one of two alternatives: it can deny the petition or engage in rule-making. If they deny the petition, they must specify its reasons for the denial and specifically address concerns raised in the petition. Where appropriate, the agency must indicate alternative how the agency will address the concerns raised in the petition. Read ORPC's petition here.

New Dishwasher Production Exemplifies a Changing Culture at GE Appliances
Opening soon at GE's Appliance Park: a dishwasher manufacturing line built using the expertise of the operators who actually work the line.
GE is in the midst of a multi-year, $1-billion expansion project at several plants in the United States. About $800 million of that billion will be invested in GE's iconic Appliance Park manufacturing campus in Louisville, KY.
This huge complex of appliance factories was once the largest single appliance manufacturing site in the world. Appliance Park, which saw no new appliance manufacturing operations come on-line for 50 years, has been the setting for two new manufacturing operations in 2012. A GeoSpring Hybrid Water Heater manufacturing facility opened in February and an operation to manufacture highly energy efficient refrigerators opened in March.
One of the facilities with a new lease on life is an Appliance Park dishwasher manufacturing line. With an investment of $150 million, it leverages newly designed products and new manufacturing processes, as well as the insourcing of a large number of the components that go into the dishwasher.
Planning for the new dishwasher designs and new manufacturing line posed several challenges:
* Installing new production lines in a space-constrained factory, where existing lines would continue to operate.
* Creating a process to leverage Lean manufacturing principles and thus reduce the time it takes to make each dishwasher.
* Reducing operational costs and unnecessary work by employees, to improve productivity while increasing quality.
Intent on developing a new culture of continuous improvement, with a collaborative work environment fostered by Lean manufacturing principles, GE rounded up employees from every discipline needed to design, build, and operate the new lines and co-located them together. The intent was to make communication instantaneous and fluid. Each member of the team had a voice and a role--from engineering, to advanced manufacturing, to the operators who assemble the products. These employees were put on a single team with the common goal of improving the processes and products.
"To be competitive, we have to look for every opportunity to improve efficiencies and productivity while increasing quality. Lean manufacturing principles have improved every aspect of our processes," said Cynthia Fanning, product general manager for dishwashers at GE Appliances.
Production Time Reduce 65%
The dishwasher Lean team came up with solutions to reduce production time and improve the production process and work environment for the production workers. Among their initiatives:
* The team reduced the size of the new dishwasher lines by more than 50% compared to traditional assembly lines, which also reduced production time, increased efficiency, and improved quality. Shorter lines allow problems to be identified and solved more quickly and improves communication on the line.
* The team significantly decreased transportation time within the plant by positioning the new assembly lines in the back of the factory, closer to staging areas for parts, such as dishwasher racks and tubs, and closer to where other parts come into the factory.
* The team included production workers in the design of workstations and processes, which improved efficiency and ergonomics by reducing parts inventories and movements to complete tasks. Production workers also helped develop new job instructions to help eliminate quality issues and improve safety. Finally, production workers helped improve the timely supply of parts to work stations. The overall production time per unit was reduced by about 65%.
"Before we implemented Lean, it was hard to address issues real-time," said Dwight Young, Lean team leader. "Now we are there to listen to the operators. When they identify a problem, we are right there to help fix the issue, so it doesn't have to be addressed later in the process. Lean gives all of us an opportunity to make more of a contribution, to improve quality and productivity, which makes us feel good, more valued."
More U.S. Parts
The new dishwashers will be manufactured with more made-in-the-USA parts. About 85% of the parts in the new dishwashers will be made in the United States, and a growing number of them will be made in Appliance Park. The Park's plastic injection molding facility is now considered the largest in Kentucky and the fourth largest in the U.S. Dishwasher parts will include:
* In-house dishwasher racks: production will increase from 40% to 100% in Louisville's dishwasher factory.
* Production of stainless steel inner and outer doors will be moved from overseas to Louisville.
* 90 additional plastic custom parts/components will be made at Appliance Park for dishwashers.
* 10 more stamping processes will be added at Appliance Park to support dishwasher parts/components.
"When our investment is complete, we will be offering dishwashers with industry-first features in the highest quality products available," said Fanning. "From the innovation in these products to our U.S. employees who work every day to improve how and what we do, we have a lot to be proud of."
Billion-Dollar Success
GE Appliances billion-dollar plan to revitalize its U.S. manufacturing operations started in 2009 and should be complete by 2014. When complete, it will include new manufacturing Centers of Excellence in refrigerator plants in Louisville as well as Bloomington, IN, and Decatur, AL, as well as in a cooking appliances plant in Lafayette, GA. That's in addition to the new Appliance Park water heater plant, making a first-of-its-kind hybrid appliance with advanced energy efficiency levels. And the new refrigerator plant product line has already seen demand increase - GE announced after just a few months of operation that it would add a second shift to increase production. A new Appliance Park clothes washer and dryer plant will begin production in 2013.
