Concentrated Solar Power (CPS) technologies use large, sun-tracking mirrors to concentrate solar radiation. However, the final steps of generating electricity using CSP systems is similar to conventional electricity generation - the ultimate energy conversion process depends on the use of steam or gas to rotate turbines, or move a piston in a Stirling engine. In a CSP system, however, steam or hot gas is produced by the concentrated solar radiation. CSP technologies have been constructed in various sizes, from small multi-kW systems, to large power stations of several MW. These power stations have provided the cheapest electricity to be generated using solar power.

Global Warming—the next big threat
Divya Tewari's blog
Deevya | Tuesday, 04 September 2012 | 02:38
The human impact on the global climate is an undisputed issue. However, the fact is often ducked by political figures and special interest groups. They claim that the increases in global temperatures are not unprecedented, but very normal, and that there is no proof of the extent to which it is human actions that have contributed to this increase. However, all of these controversies regarding climate change exist only at the level of the popular media. At the scientific level, there is a strong consensus that global surface temperatures have increased in the recent past, and the causative factor has mainly been the human-induced emissions of green-house gases.
With the extreme climatic conditions that are being experienced in the world over, there is little doubt left regarding whether or not the degree of climatic change is normal. The sweltering heat wave of the last few weeks made this year the hottest one so far. Globally, 9 of the 10 hottest years have occurred after 2000. India experienced its tenth hottest year ever, with many states being declared drought-affected. In the US, wildfires claimed 1.3million acres, mostly in the West, the second-largest area to be charred during June on record. Many places have seen changes in rainfall, resulting in more floods, droughts, or intense rain, as well as more frequent and severe heat waves. The planet's oceans and glaciers have also experienced some big changes - oceans are warming and becoming more acidic, ice caps are melting, and sea levels are rising. All of these point to the great risk at which have placed ourselves as well as our future generations.
The major cause of global warming is the increase in the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. The increasing industrial activity and human population has led to a major increase in the burning of fossil fuels, thereby leading to increased emissions of greenhouse gases. At the same time, land-use patterns have changed, and large-scale deforestation has taken place. This too has led to an increased concentration of greenhouse gases. The two factors together have led to changes in global temperatures. It may be noted that small changes in global temperature can lead to a drastic and potentially dangerous shifts in climate and weather. The results of the same are already becoming visible.
Potential impacts of global warming
• Increases in global temperature could lead to many plant and animal species becoming extinct, and this would have potentially dangerous impacts on their direct as well indirect consumers. As an effect of global warming, species like golden toad, harlequin frog of Costa Rica have already become extinct.
• Increase in water levels due to melting of glaciers could lead to submergence of several low-lying areas.
• There would be a significant increase in the diseases and number of deaths related to extreme heat. It may be noted that the highest number of people impacted in any particular drought was 300,000,000 in India in the year 2002. Events like these would become less of an exception and more of a rule if temperatures continued to rise.
• Marine life is very sensitive to temperature changes, and would thus be impacted to a major extent by any changes in temperature. Coral reefs are expected to die off as a result of global warming.
• Our food-production levels, transportation systems, stream-flows, etc would also be impacted. For India alone, the impact is predicted to be disastrous. According to the Peterson Institute for International Economics, India's agriculture will suffer more than any other country's. Assuming a global temperature increase of 4.4°C over cultivated areas by 2080, India's agricultural output is projected to fall by 30-40%.
Besides these impacts, one of the major impacts as already stated would be the extreme weather conditions. Global warming would impact the ecosystem in so many different ways that it is not even possible to state the entire range of the harmful impacts.
By altering the decision we make in our day-to-day lives, we can make a difference and contribute towards reducing global warming.
At a personal level, we can make quite a few changes in our lifestyle that help reduce the emission of greenhouse gases. Walking and biking instead of using motor vehicles, using car pools, using more energy-efficient appliances, etc are some of them.
Besides, governments can take initiatives to prevent deforestation at a large scale. Also, it could help prevent an increase in the amount of greenhouse gases by banning certain products that emit huge amounts of these gases. The government has the key role to play when it comes to promoting alternative sources of energy that are not as polluting as the coal-based ones.
Geo-engineering, a relatively new approach towards solving the problem of global warming could also yield results in the future. Geo-engineering involves the deliberate modification of the climate by managing solar radiations or removing carbon-dioxide from the atmosphere. The research for the same, however, is at a very elementary level at present.
Day by day, new problems associated with global warming are coming to light. It is clear that the global environment is slowly careening out of control. Unless we take heed, "The weather extremes and wild swings in temperature will become more pronounced with time and" become "characteristic of a planet suffering 'meteorological shock' brought on by a runaway planetary entropic heating process and magnetic reversal…What we are experiencing now is climate change- what we will be experiencing tomorrow is climate collapse." (The Extinction Protocol, page 137,173).

Considering breast augmentation - need advice
I'm considering breast augmentation and I would like to get some advice on everything from complications to recommendations. I'm in Cali and would like to set a concultation with a surgeon soon.
Pls help if you can.
first consultation this week
OK, I'm finally going though with my breat augmentation. I've chosen saline over silicon. Right now, I set up my first consultation for Wednesday with Dr. Cruise's office.
He offers financing, which is great because my health insurance doens't cover my procedure. Anyone know of anything out there that can protect me and my daughter incase something happens? I have a small life insurance policy that my work pays.

On Sunday, Aug. 4, 2013, Kemala, a Sumatran Tiger at the San Antonio Zoo, gave birth to two cubs. However, the tiger cubs have remained out of the public's view so as not to disrupt interactions with their mother, zoo staff said.
The zoo released photos of the cubs on its official Facebook page earlier this week.
Zoo visitors can still catch a glimpse of the young cats from a viewing monitor located outside the tiger exhibit.

Hi everyone! A quick question...has anybody done/planning to do a gender reveal party with the cake and everything? I'm thinking of doing one this time around to make things exciting for a second child.
Name/SO Name: Mary/Joe
How many weeks are you? Almost 4
Any exciting dates/appointments this month? Our first appt/ultrasound is 1/29.
Do you feel like you will go early or late? Too early to tell.
How are you feeling physically? Tired/heightened sense of smell already.
How are you feeling emotionally? A little moody at times
What's on your to-do list to get ready for baby this month? We'll tell our families later this month after the first appointment.
Do you know the gender yet? If not, are you thinking pink or blue? Thinking pink but have no idea yet.
Any exciting plans for New Years Eve/Day? DH and I have a date tonight. I'll be telling him about the pregnancy via our dessert at the restaurant! So excited!
What would you like to accomplish this year? (in addition to having the baby, lol!) Have a healthier pregnancy this time around (aka not gain so much weight!!!!!). :)
|Tue, 01-01-2013 - 3:43pm
|Tue, 01-01-2013 - 3:56pm
Name/SO Name: Christine/DH
How many weeks are you? 13 weeks
Any exciting dates/appointments this month? Actually none since I just had an appt yesterday. I have two appts next month.
Do you feel like you will go early or late? Right on time like last time
How are you feeling physically? Still dealing with nausea. Hoping the end is in sight very soon!
How are you feeling emotionally? Fine. Looking forward to the 2T so I can enjoy this pregnancy more. We have some potential big changes coming up for us this year so we have a lot to look forward to (more on that below).
What's on your to-do list to get ready for baby this month? Nothing yet
Do you know the gender yet? If not, are you thinking pink or blue? Don't know the gender, feeling pink but will be happy with either!
Any exciting plans for New Years Eve/Day? Stayed in last night and had our own little dinner with sparkling lemonade. Was in bed by 9pm. Had breakfast at my ILs this morning. Other than that just hanging around the house today.
What would you like to accomplish this year? (in addition to having the baby, lol!) I'm praying my DH finds a new job, which will hopefully lead to us getting a bigger house. We'd also like to start investing in some properties. Looking forward to hopefully traveling overseas later this year to visit DH's family with the baby since Selin and I weren't able to go last year. I'm feeling pretty settled in my new career now so not really looking to make any changes in that area. Looking forward to being off work from June-Nov with the baby. :-)
|Tue, 01-01-2013 - 4:02pm
Mary - If we do end up finding out, I was thinking to do the cake thing because my big U/S is scheduled for the day before Selin's 3rd birthday so I was thinking it would be fun to incorporate it with her party.
Suzie - How exciting your big reveal is just a few weeks away! I'm thinking pink for you. ;-)
AFM - I had my appt with my MW yesterday. Ended up not needing an U/S since she was able to hear the HB with the doppler. She did confirm that I will have to do two glucose tests since my dad is diabetic (although I don't understand why that wasn't a concern with my last pregnancy because he has been diabetic for about 15 years now but I was with a different provider back then). So at my next appt next month I have to do the one hour glucose test. Then we go back in 3 weeks from that date for our big U/S.
I've decided to change my incentive for DH and told him if he gets an interview by the big U/S, then we can find out, otherwise I want to stay on team green. I know our families are going to be irked that we're not finding out but oh well, it's our baby and we already have all of the essentials so aside from buying clothes if it's a boy, we're all set.
Question for you all...Does anyone have a 2BR house?
I'm still struggling on what to put the baby in in our room before we move them in with Selin (assuming we're still living in our current house by then). Our BRs are really small and while I'd like to use the crib again from the beginning, I don't know if it will fit in our room. We also have a hand-me-down bassinet and a PNP with a bassinet insert. I know I still have about 6 months to figure everything out but just trying to think it out ahead of time.

How are you feeling emotionally? alright
What's on your to-do list to get ready for baby this month? work on unpacking the house.. I want it done before baby gets here.
Do you know the gender yet? If not, are you thinking pink or blue? I am thinking Blue.. DH is set its pink
Any exciting plans for New Years Eve/Day? We were suppose to get together with a group from church but decided due to the snow to stay in. So we stayed up with Simon till the ball dropped in new york then hung out at home.
What would you like to accomplish this year? (in addition to having the baby, lol!) Unpacking my house!
|Wed, 01-02-2013 - 10:26pm
Mary, I want to do something to surprise family... well atleast the family here. We might send something up to his folks if I can figure out something and not break the secret.
Christine, I am so jealous you get so much time off. I will be missing my 12 weeks from last time as I get 6 weeks this time and I have to use PTO to get paid. I'm glad I took out STD last year so that will help.
Susie, so excited to see what you are having!
AFM, I am working on planning Simon's 3rd birthday party. He decided he wanted a pirate birthday party so I am working on things for him and his matey's. Any ideas for snacks? The party is going to be at 4 on a Sunday afternoon and I planned to do cake and ice cream but was thinking maybe a few snacks since that is just before dinner...or should I not be messing with people's dinner?
|Mon, 01-07-2013 - 10:54am
Mary- Congrats! Tell us how you told your DH through a dessert! Sounds like a fun surprise!
Cassie- One of my hubby's favorite junk foods is 'pirate booty.' They are these cheddar cheese flavored rice puffs. Anyways, you could put individual bags of that or little boxes of Captain Crunch in favor bags. If the party is short- say, 4-6pm, you can assumed families are headed home for dinner and you needn't do more than the cake, but if you are going past that time, you may want to consider an inexpensive option for serving dinner. And I have nothing creative to follow that up! lol sorry! I can't believe Simon is 3! Grey's 3rd is in March and I am still in shock that he's such a big boy. Where'd my toddler go? Heck, where'd my baby go? lol
Christine- We live in a 3bdrm, but have no plans to do a nursery until after the initial waves of guests pass through when the baby arrives. We'll have baby in our room in a pack in play bassinette at first and when s/he outgrows that we'll make our deicison about moving bedrooms. It seems strange to not be preparing some special space for the baby, but that's just the way it is this time! FWIW, I have heard from many mamas that their 1st borns sleep right through baby noise, so maybe it won't be an issue once baby starts sleeping long stretches. FXed your hubby finds a great new job!
AFM- Jan 16th (anatomy scan) feels forever away! Maybe my own patience in waiting for week 22 is dying out especially when seeing so many in my EC getting their scans so much earlier! Alas, 9 days to go... I've officially called bump and excited to finally be showing. Strangers don't seem to know yet, but to those who know me its obvious. It's crazy because it really just popped up one day and that was that. lol. I'm attaching a comparison shot from wk 17 to wk 19. :) Let me know if it doesn't work because I haven't tried this on the new server yet. So, I know I told yall that I had the flu last month. Do you think I should still get a vaccine to help protect baby or do I have enough immunity now to pass on to baby? I'm hearing of so many people this year who said they got the flu despite the vaccine and I'm wondering if its worth it. Welcoming all opinions!
|Mon, 01-07-2013 - 12:29pm
Christine, we had a 2 bedroom with two kids. For one month, we had three kids in our 2 BR but that doesn't really count. We co-sleep for about two years, so shortly after Jonah turned two, we put the boys in bunk beds. It worked well. We've used a Arms Reach Co-Sleeper for both Jonah and Charlotte. Charlotte is still in our room.
I hope you find an arrangement that works for your family.

Safety of Electronic Documentation - page 2
Are nurses and others at your facility acting to ensure the safety of computer systems? This article gives personal and facility examples of safety issues.... Read More
- 0Jul 12, '13 by ♪♫ in my ♥I guess it's wait-and-see.
I used NextGen (lousy) and HMS (beyond horrible) before moving to Epic.
That my hospitals were duped into buying either of the first two is a sad testament to how woefully unprepared are many smaller facilities to undertake tech acquisition projects.
Epic, while having its issues, is actually a useful tool that enhances patient care rather than detracting from it.
- 0Jul 13, '13 by herring_RN GuideIt seems to me that many of the problems are due to lack of preparation and training. I also think additional staff should be scheduled until the staff and physicians are competent in the use of the system.
I quoted part of an article:
In over 100 reports submitted by RNs at Alta Bates Summit Medical Center facilities in Berkeley and Oakland, nurses cited a variety of serious problems with the new system, known as Epic. The reports are in union forms RNs submit to management documenting assignments they believe to be unsafe.
Patient care concerns included computerized delays in timely administration of medications and contact with physicians, ability to properly monitor patients, and other delays in treatment.
Many noted that the excessive amount of time required to interact with the computer system, inputting and accessing data, sharply cuts down on time they can spend with patients with frequent complaints from patients about not seeing their RN.
"EPIC is a system that is so cumbersome to use for nurses and physicians, that we often feel as though we are caring for a computer, not a patient, said Thorild Urdal, an RN at Alta Bates Summits hospital in Berkeley. It delays care and treatment, the program is naturally counter-intuitive and it was clearly not designed in concert with nurses and physicians." ...
... At Alta Bates Summit specific incidents directly related to Epic problems included:
- A patient who had to be transferred to the intensive care unit due to delays in care caused by the computer.
- A nurse who was not able to obtain needed blood for an emergent medical emergency.
- Insulin orders set erroneously by the software.
- Missed orders for lab tests for newborn babies and an inability for RNs to spend time teaching new mothers how to properly breast feed babies before patient discharge.
- Lab tests not done in a timely manner.
- Frequent short staffing caused by time RNs have to spend with the computers.
- Orders incorrectly entered by physicians requiring the RNs to track down the physician before tests can be done or medication ordered.
- Discrepancies between the Epic computers and the computers that dispense medications causing errors with medication labels and delays in administering medications.
- Patient information, including vital signs, missing in the computer software.
- An inability to accurately chart specific patient needs or conditions because of pre-determined responses by the computer software.
- Multiple problems with RN fatigue because of time required by the computers and an inability to take rest breaks as a result.
- Inadequate RN training and orientation. ...
- 0Apr 2 by losbozosMy problem w/ Epic is when the PCP does write new orders (all PCPs do it electronically), I have no way of knowing unless I seek that info. I've had docs put in orders from home in the middle of the night w/o my knowledge. I believe the designers of Epic think we sit around at the computer while at work. Hello???? This is not an office job!
- 2Apr 2 by dudette10Quote from losbozosSerious question: how is that different from paper? Although I've been at this for only 2.5 years, I was in a paper environment for about a year. If that little yellow tab wasn't sticking up and the chart wasn't placed on its side in the rack, I didn't know that a doc had entered an order either. I have my issues with CPOE--primarily orders entered incorrectly that nursing MUST be knowledgeable enough to catch for patient safety reasons--but I believe your issue with CPOE isn't unique to CPOE.My problem w/ Epic is when the PCP does write new orders (all PCPs do it electronically), I have no way of knowing unless I seek that info. I've had docs put in orders from home in the middle of the night w/o my knowledge. I believe the designers of Epic think we sit around at the computer while at work. Hello????

Dogs have specific nutritional requirements throughout their lifetimes. As dogs age, nutritional requirements can change just like their human counterparts. Puppy kibble is not suitable for an adult dog, nor is the adult food the right choice for a senior dog. You can choose between many types and brands of commercial dog food for your aging furry friend, or you may opt to create your own blend. Homemade dog food is often the best way to ensure the right components are present in your senior canine's diet.
Current Health
Start by assessing your dog's health. Have a veterinarian evaluate your dog before you change its diet. You need to know if any specific nutritional deficiencies or other concerns should be addressed through the new diet. Regular checkups are even more important for a dog as it moves into its elderly years.
Dry or Moist?
A common concern involving many senior dogs is tooth loss, which could lead to difficulty chewing. You may want to immediately switch him over to soft food once he has lost a tooth. This is not always the best choice, however, as chewing on dry food helps to remove some of the tartar that causes dental problems. This condition can be a real Catch 22 for many pet owners. Your veterinarian may recommend performing dental cleaning procedures on a more frequent schedule, and also supplementing some soft, moist food, while still keeping the majority of the dog's diet in the form of dry food. Keep good track of his weight in order to assess how well he is processing his food.
The other common diet concern relating to senior dogs is the absorption of protein. Even though your dog may be eating the same amount of protein as a younger dog, he may be experiencing less digestibility of the protein due to changes in his ability to absorb this nutrient. By increasing his amount of protein, as well as alternating his feedings between heavy protein meals and carbohydrate mixed meals, he may be able to better assimilate the protein.
The best formula for homemade dog food for the elderly dog will contain up to 50 percent in animal-based protein, an easily digested carbohydrate source and some fat. Many elderly dogs tolerate both red and white meats, as long as they are not salted or saturated with fat. Many owners choose to use cooked rice mixed with lamb, chicken or beef. Cooked eggs are a good source of protein and are well tolerated by most dogs. Experiment with different grains and vegetables to determine which your dog prefers. Vary your mixes to include different kinds of meats, vegetables and grains to ensure your dog is getting all the nutrients he requires.
Start Mixing
When making your own dog food, refrain from using seasonings. We may crave flavorful foods but older dogs do not tolerate them very well. Additional salt can cause health risks including consumption of excess water, which can put a strain on the aging dog's kidneys. Be sure to cook all meat. After mixing your meats, grains and vegetables, you can refrigerate part of it in airtight containers for up to a week. The rest can be spread on cookie sheets and baked slowly in a 200° oven until all moisture has been removed. It is still a good idea to refrigerate this dry mix also, since you have not added any preservatives. Making a nice batch of dog food once a week can be fun for you and very nutritious for your furry friend.

Since their announcement in April of 2013, the College and Career Readiness (CCR) Standards for Adult Education have become the focal point for changing our thinking about how we plan for and provide instruction to our adult students. CCR Standards for Adult Education were designed to identify what content was most important and most relevant for ALL adult learners as they continue to pursue their educational and career goals. Over the next few years, this subset of the Common Core State Standards will be a major factor when purchasing materials, developing curriculum, planning lessons, evaluating, and for overall Adult Education programming.

NIEMEN CZESLAW Sen o Warszawie

Sen o Warszawie
Czeslaw Niemen (the real name is Czeslaw Juliusz Wydrzycki) was born in Stare Wasiliszki (Old Vasilishki), a village in Byelorussia, Soviet Union, in 1939. In 1958 he has repatriated to Poland. His scenical name is a pseudonym taken after the name of the river Niemen. Debuted as a rock and soul singer in the early 1960's. He recorded "Dziwny jest ten swiat" (Strange Is This World) as a major Polish protest song in 1967, and was an early pioneer of psychedelic music in communist Poland in the late 60's. He recorded three albums with the band Akwarele, as well as later works with Enigmatic, Grupa Niemen, and Aerolit. His first self-acclaimed progressive work was entitled "Enigmatic", and was released in 1969. The most notable song from it was "Bema pamieci zalobny - rapsod" (A Mournful Rhapsody, in memory of Jozef Bem, a Polish solider who served as a Polish Army general in the Polish War of Independence (November Uprising). Like "Rhapsody", many of the other songs from "Enigmatic" were based Polish folk poetry. During his progressive period Niemen played keyboards extensively, including a Hammond, and later a mellotron and finally a Moog synthesizer. In the early 70's Niemen recorded three albums for CBS International (Schaelplatten), including a 1974 release entitled Mourner's Rhapsody with Jan Hammer and Rick Laird of Mahavishnu Orchestra, electric violin and saxophonist Michal Urbaniak of Fusion, bassist the late Seldon Powell of the Buddy Rich Band, and session pianist the late Don Grolnick. The album featured a fifteen minute version of "A Mournful Rhapsody". In the latter 70's Niemen's musical work tended more toward jazz/fusion, and even electronica. He released seven additional albums and a retrospective collection before he passed of cancer in 2004.

Why has Czeslaw Wydrzycki, better known by his artistic name Niemen, become a living legend in Poland? His biography has become part of the political history of Poland under communism, and his behavior and style of dress have become part of pop culture. This personality is matched with music composed and performed by Niemen, music that has always differed from the stereotypical songs heard on the radio. The artistic path he has followed can be compared to that of the Beatles. Put simply, Niemen revolutionized singing in Poland. He has gained enormous popularity and has always sought more difficult forms, even when some listeners found them difficult to understand. He has limited his public appearances to focus on composing pieces far removed from the world of commercial production. Niemen was born in Stare Wasyliszki, a Polish village that lies in territory that is now Belarus. In 1958 he found himself in Pomerania as a repatriated Pole from Poland's pre-World War II eastern territories. He went to musical high school in Gdańsk, and it was there that he started his career performing in the To Tu cabaret. Niemen's first recordings, which showcase a high, pleasing, warm voice, met the expectations of that time. In the late 1950s and early `60s, Latin American songs were popular in Poland, and other styles didn't gain official approval. For example, the first rhythm and blues band was dissolved by the communist authorities because it provoked audience reactions that were considered too spontaneous. Jazz was also deemed suspect, as it was imported from America. "I sang that [Latin American] music because I liked it, and I didn't know any other music yet," says Niemen. "Besides, I had an appropriate, `sweet voice' for it. Later, when I became fascinated with Ray Charles, I changed [my technique]." Niemen says that his efforts to sound more like Ray Charles resulted in a "hoarse, seasoned" voice, which he has used ever since. "Today I would not be able to sing anything in a smooth and sweet way," he says. In 1962 Niemen became one of the soloists in the Niebiesko-Czarni band. From then on, his career developed at lightning speed. He recorded his first hits, "Wiem, ze nie wrócisz" (I Know You Won't Be Back) and "Czy mnie jeszcze pamietasz?" (Do You Still Remember Me?), the latter of which was performed by Marlene Dietrich in 1964. A year later at the Rennes festival, he won two prizes, and as a result, he recorded with Michel Colombier's orchestra. One of the songs, titled "Sen o Warszawie" (A Dream of Warsaw) was a hit in 1966. At that time, Niemen founded his first band, Akwarele. His breakthrough came with his performance of "Dziwny jest ten swiat" (Strange Is This World) at the festival in Opole. "Dziwny jest ten swiat/ gdzie jeszcze wciaz/ miesci sie wiele zla/ i dziwne jest to/ ze od tylu lat czlowiekiem/ gardzi czlowiek" (Strange is this world/ which still holds/ so much evil/ and strange is it that/ for so long a man/ has despised another man) he sang to critics who disliked his singing, clothes and long hair. The song was the first in Polish rock to be so sincere and thought-provoking. Niemen shocked listeners with his means of expression, which verged on shouting. And Niemen was shocking in other ways, too: In Opole, he performed in flower-patterned trousers and a striped jacket. In the late 1960s, big beat, the Polish version of rock, was an innocuous style, very different from that of The Rolling Stones or Jimi Hendrix. Polish bands sang banal, optimistic texts, musicians wore suits, festival organizers ordered performers to wear their hair short, and pseudo-folk was promoted. "My style of working has from the very start been linked with my behavior and manner of dress," said Niemen in 1974. "I did indeed wear extravagant clothes because I felt best in them... I hate convention." It's not surprising then that Niemen came to be idolized by youth and that Dziwny jest ten swiat was the first album in Poland to go gold. The artist made further strides in 1970 when he recorded Niemen Enigmatic, which included a monumental, nearly 15-minute piece "Bema pamieci zalobny rapsod" (A Mournful Rhapsody in Memory of Bem) with lyrics based on a poem by one of the most important and inventive Polish poets, Cyprian Kamil Norwid. The song can be compared to great works by Western bands. Its sound, according to music expert Wieslaw Królikowski, brings to mind the ambiance of Pink Floyd's "A Saucerful of Secrets" or Iron Butterfly's "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida." Due to his originality and innovation, Niemen, who was formerly perceived as a rebel, became a subject of Polish classes in schools. "Jednego serca" (Of One Heart), based on a poem by another outstanding Polish poet, Kazimierz Przerwa-Tetmajer, reveals a turn toward jazz. Even more clearly, a jazz influence, with elements of free jazz, can be seen in the albums by Grupa Niemen. These albums were recorded with well-known Polish instrumentalists, including double-bass player Helmut Nadolski and trumpeter Andrzej Przybielski. In the same period, Niemen also worked with famous violinist Michal Urbaniak. In 1972 and 1973 Niemen was linked to the CBS (now Sony) label, with which he recorded three albums. It was even rumored that he was to become the singer in the renowned group Blood Sweat & Tears. In 1974 he recorded Mourner's Rhapsody, an album with Jan Hammer and Risk Laird from John McLaughlin's Mahavishnu Orchestra. Years later, asked about his rather unsuccessful attempts to win over the Western market, Niemen said, "I was quite stubborn; I didn't want to bend to overly commercial offers. And later I thought, why should those abroad bother with some guy named Niemen from Poland when they have thousands of their own [Niemens]?" In 1971 Niemen bought his first, very basic, synthesizer. Two or three years later he already was creating loops, the repeated musical sequences that today are the basis for techno music, as well as other styles. In the mid-1970s he concentrated on composing illustrative music for theater plays and films and started to perform with electronic instruments. In 1981, when martial law was introduced in Poland, Niemen suspended his concerts and only returned to the stage four years later. Despite infrequent appearances, he has spent the last decade working laboriously. He recorded Terra deflorata, an album with lyrics inspired by Norwid's poetry and overall sound inspired by Frank Zappa, Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush. Although it was not promoted, the album has sold more than 100,000 copies. Niemen also reworks his earlier recordings on the computer; the series Niemen From the Beginning included 12 albums. "Dziwny jest ten swiat" was the main musical motif of Solidarity Election Action's election campaign in 1997. The artist is also working on new music, including a piece titled "Piekny jest ten swiat" (Beautiful Is This World), that he would like to release on the album whose working title is Swiat nieodkryty (The Undiscovered World). Niemen has become an unquestioned authority in the Polish music community. His music has run the gamut from catchy hits to avant-garde, and he has pioneered the use of computers and electronic instruments. He was a youth idol who, in time, moved away from superficial popularity. He rarely has performed on the radio, and he has appeared on TV even less frequently. He has become the Great Absentee, somewhat forgotten in these times of video clips and hit charts. However, one thing is sure: The release of Niemen's new recordings, which have been 10 years in the making, will be marked not only as a musical event but also as a sociological phenomenon.

The only regular missing from today's regular-season finale is Vladimir Guerrero, given a day of rest heading into the post-season. Look for the others to be pulled from the game early -- 100 wins or no 100 wins.
Angels manager Mike Scioscia wouldn't say his team was 100 percent healthy heading into the playoffs -- but they are probably as close as any team can get and certainly much closer than the bedraggled unit that headed to Boston last October.
"Everybody looks good," Scioscia said.

1B Mark Teixeira
CF Torii Hunter

Really, "This Sorrowful Life" dealt with the conflicted ideals of Rick, Daryl and Merle over giving Michonne over to the Governor.
I was surprised initially at how long Rick was willing to go with handing over his hostage for the slim concept of hope. I know he tries to think in the best interest of the group, but it was certainly dangerous only bringing a few others into the knowledge of the deal.
Except, I really felt like Rick as a character, couldn't ever go through with giving her over. It just never ultimately seemed plausible for him. And I really liked that when it came down to it, after a little dead Lori vision, he told everyone what the deal was and how he was ready to fight instead. It certainly separates him from the Governor.
It was definitely a great speech, as he came clean bout the ordeal to the people who have invested their allegiance to Rick. He's the leader and it's enjoyable to watch him be so, despite his conflicted emotions. I'm glad he didn't go full dark side and hand over Michonne. That said, he did invite Merle into his inner circle. I think that having Daryl help him was a part of his so called trust, but at the same time, Merle has always been that guy you can go to with problems that need some darker resolutions.
It was even a fantastic scene with Merle talking to Rick about the strategy of handing over Michonne. Having him hiding in the dark with his face half covered by the shadows added to the moment.
Certainly, it made sense that Merle could be the person to follow through on capturing Michonne. He's done a lot of questionable things. Yet, it was more shocking and character changing when he decided to let Michonne go.
I didn't find the scene with the car alarm scary at all, although having Merle get the walkers to follow him in the car was hilarious. Stopping for a few seconds and then moving forward closer to the meeting place was genius.
Although, I feared the end result of Merle's attempt to redeem himself. He's always been something of a jerk, but coming to a conclusion to take out the Governor was a hugely bold and daring step. Yes, his plan partially succeeded and he went out as something of a hero worked wonders, but I was still upset with how it all played out.
Merle has been a fantastic and interesting character, and having him bite the bullet was a huge disappointment. I wanted him to survive, but at least his final outing was heroic.
That said, it was tragic watching Daryl discover the newly zombified Merle eating a corpse. Daryl has desperately wanted his brother to join the group in a positive manner. As much as Merle wasn't liked, he was still Daryl's brother and even throughout the episode, Daryl was advocating hard for his kin.
Daryl has always been a fantastic character, probably one of my favorites, and seeing Norman Reedus emote the sincere and heartbreaking feelings was moving. I believed the pain he felt, the sorrow, the guilt, the anger and everything in between. Even stabbing his brother multiple times further exposed everything he was feeling.
It's definitely a turning point for Daryl's character, who has been that loyal friend and follower to Rick, as well as great guy for the group. And despite his brother being the more hated member of the group, Daryl still wanted him to join the prison team. Daryl might have a lot harder of a heart when it comes down to it.
I still wish Merle survived, but it was a wild and shocking change of events.
There was clearly a sense that everything was still at that waiting moment before the big battle for The Walking Dead Season 3 finale, but at least Rick, Daryl and Merle came to some major decisions. There was something gripping in watching each come to their emotional conclusion, essentially setting their fate in motion for the final battle.
I still wish Merle didn't meet his demise, but it was a wild twist in how it all went down. It certainly was far more engrossing then "Prey" and makes me really want Rick to defeat the Governor for the finale. All roads lead to this and I'm looking forward to seeing how it all dramatically concludes.

I thought it was very strange that Michonne went back to the people who tried to sold her out to the governor, after Merle let her go. I would not trust those people anymore. That action didn't fit her character.
This episode was incredible. It was chilling when Merle brought up the 'Officer Friendly' reference full circle.
When talking about Merle's 'redemption' it is good to remember his character was shaped by being left to be zombie dinner at a rooftop and was totally unaware that EVERYONE had come back to get him. Ultimately it wasn't part of his innate cracker sensibility to be a irretrievable reprobate, he had a sense that the governor had gone too far and had to be stopped.
The whole thing was very well written.
I've been saying for months that the Governor will ultimately be killed by Milton. So unexpected that it's expected. As for Merle, it was becoming increasingly obvious that this episode would end in his demise, it was just a question of how. And Glenn reminded us that as interesting a character that he may have been there is simply no excuse for his actions. He deserved to die and good riddance. Yes, I'm sorry for Daryl's grief but that's about it. The only real surprise was that he let Michonne go. But really, how could anyone expect for her to suddenly ally with him? It was all she could do to not kill him on the spot.
It was an excellent episode. At the end I found myself actually feeling sorry that Merle died; I'm not sure if it was because he went out heroically or if it was because I knew what it would do to Daryl's character (he is my favorite; and yes I'm a Daryl/Carol supporter). I'm so hoping that they are able to defeat the governor next week; he proved just how deranged he is when he bit two of Merle's fingers off!! It is time to end this battle and move on to the next one! :-)
FWIW, this is what @Rosane said: "This episode closed a circle. Now nobody from the group of Super Rick has not lost a relative in the world of TWD. Now everyone knows how it feels, and some more than others (Daryl, Carl and the boring Andrea)."
Com este episódio fechou-se um cÃrculo de que, ninguém do grupo do Super Rick lindinho não havia perdido algum parente no mundo de WD, agora todos sabem como é e alguns mais que outros (Daryl, Carl e a chata da Andreia). Quanto ao Merle, ele foi impossÃvel durante toda a segunda temporada, não seria com um ou dois sorrisinhos que viraria santo, o grupo não precisa dele, agora o Daryl (tadinho) fiquei com pena, mas ele é um bom garoto e sabe o que deve ser feito.O governador esta louco e talvez a Andreia possa ajudar de alguma maneira o grupo de prisão, que creio vá embora sem antes fazer uma armadilha. Veremos.
By the way..
Carol talked to T-Dog... *dies*
Carol talked to Axel... *dies*
Carol talked to Merle... *dies* BUT Carol talks to Daryl all the time, and he has NOT died :) But I'm a big Carol/Daryl shipper so I hope they get together eventually.
I liked Michael Rooker's comment on Walking Dead about Michonne - he let her out of the car because he was tired of her talking to him.
Think he went to where he went feeling he could kill the gov., but he also knew what could happen. Not sure if it was because of the group or just because he hated the gov. and he wanted his revenge. But he did what he felt he had to do and it was heroic in his way.
Sorry to see the character go too because, as much of a pain as he was, he was an interesting character and Rooker gave excellent performances. (This episode should be submitted for him for a supporting actor Nomination).
But i think I was most emotional watching Daryl.
Also loved the line "We are the greater good"..that brought a tear to my eye.
No t.v. show is perfect and you certainly hear from the people who nit-pick all the time, but i care about all the characters and scenes with them "just talking" are fine with me. The cast also cares a lot about the show and doing the best they can and it shows.
I thought this episode was excellent (except for the weird haircut/style Daryl had). I liked Merle's dip into self-examination; maybe Rick's "Do you even know why you do the things you do?" was one of the triggers. Michonne also dug at him in regard to whether he'd killed any humans before he met the Governor. I was just starting to like him and he dies! However, I don't know how far Merle's introspection could go and how much he could change over time. But it made him much more multidimensional, and that was important. He went out as a hero (though damn about missing that perfect shot of the Governor) and making a stand for good.
I knew that Meryl would be meeting his fate soon but when daryl found him like that just watching his facial expressions knowing that he was going to have put his brother down was heart wrenching. I love this show and you never disappoint me. Keep up the good work.

The book sounds very interesting Trip and i like your article bud.
I'm just starting out on the old networking education but have always thought that having an understanding of the bigger picture can only be helpful. Do you think this book or a book of its kind would be advantagous to a beginer like myself or do you think it would fry my brains at this early point!

Martyn "We Are You in the Future (Claude Speeed's 'You Are Us in the Past' Remix)"
- Words: James Eaton
- Photo: Shaun Bloodworth
The original version of Martyn's "We Are You in the Future" appeared nearly two years ago as part of the excellent Ghost People LP, and provided a truly epic finish to the producer's second album (it was our sixth favorite track of 2011, too). So while it's surprising to see that a free download has appeared for Claude Speeed's belated remix of the tune, it's simultaneously exhilarating to revisit this music. What's more, the Berlin-based producer's "You Are Us in the Past" version of Martyn's track is a wholly new experience, one which utilizes half-discernable fragments and trace elements of the original production within its droning, expansive space.

Crews say floor dropped out of metal building during fire
Updated On: Dec 13 2012 08:06:42 AM CST
An hours-long Oklahoma City fire is under investigation.
Fire crews spent most of the night at the scene. They say the four people inside the home near North Villa Avenue and West Main Street are safe.
The blaze began just before 10 p.m. Wednesday. Firefighters say it was extremely difficult to stop the fire because the building is metal.
Crews say the bottom of the floor dropped out so they couldn't go inside the building. Firefighters are still at the scene monitoring for hot spots.

It's all the more exciting when something blooms this time of year. Thanks for showing it to us. I like it!

|That pic was taken 19 Dec 10. It has even more blooms on it now 18 Jan 11.
- Posted by rock_oak_deer 8a TX (My Page) on Wed, Jan 19, 11 at 10:11
|LOL, I guess this means the one I got from you at the swap was "pinched" too.
Those are nice blooms, I'll look forward to them. Maybe in the summer. We're building a screen room on the deck so I can winter my plants outside.
- Posted by princealbert 8 Belton TX (My Page) on Wed, Jan 19, 11 at 10:37
Yours is a second generation pinched one. I had them most of the summer and they didn't bloom. I suspect they are tropicals with a reverse blooming cycle (south American ect.) like the poiensettas.
- Posted by plantmaven 8b/9a TX (My Page) on Wed, Jan 19, 11 at 12:25
|Albert, I grew up with those in the Rio Grande Valley. But I sure don't remember the bloom time.
They are very similar to Kalanchoes.
Maybe, Kalanchoe daigremontiana.
- Posted by princealbert 8 Belton TX (My Page) on Wed, Jan 19, 11 at 15:34
You hit the nail on the head with the name. I found it to also be called Mother of Thousands and the Devils Backbone.
here are pics made today of it.
I guess it will make seeds if there are any bugs in the GH to do the work.
- Posted by plantmaven 8b/9a TX (My Page) on Wed, Jan 19, 11 at 16:50
|Some swaps do not allow those plants.
Which doesn't mean you can't enjoy your's. LOL

Apple Investors Excited About Mac Chatter
SAN FRANCSICO ( TheStreet) -- Apple (AAPL) investors are eagerly anticipating the new Mac hardware, which the tech giant is expected to debut at its Worldwide Developers' Conference (WWDC), which kicks off in San Francisco on Monday.
"Like most people, I'm looking for Apple to announce new stuff," explained Scott Grannis, who writes the Calafia Beach Pundit blog, in an email to TheStreet. "I think they will very likely be showing new models of laptops and desktops, as these are long overdue."
|Apple kicks off its Worldwide Developers' Conference on Monday.
There have been rumors that Apple may launch a new 15-inch MacBook Pro featuring the HD retina display technology found on the latest iPad. This may also feature a design similar to the MacBook Air, and sport no optical drive.
Pre-WWDC chatter also suggests that the MacBook Air, iMac, Mac mini and Mac Pro may be upgraded with Intel's (INTC) Ivy Bridge processor, bringing improved performance and enhanced graphics."I'm very interested in the new laptops, since I'm ready to upgrade my own which is now over 2 years old," noted Grannis. "I suspect they will be well received, being much lighter and faster, and sporting retina displays." Retina display is one of the key features of Apple's latest iPad, which was launched in March, offering four times the number of pixels of its predecessor, the iPad 2. "I really love the retina display on my new iPad, and I can't wait to see what a retina display looks like on a bigger laptop screen," added Grannis. "Apple already sells the best laptops, and the new ones are going to be to die for - Apple still has plenty of room to expand its market share in the traditional PC and laptop market." Michael Yoshikami, CEO and founder of Destination Wealth Management, agreed that the launch of new MacBooks at WWDC will resonate with consumers. "As retina displays begin to move away from iPads exclusively and towards MacBook devices, virtually all MacBook owners will consider upgrading their devices to experience what will likely be shocking resolution for a computer screen," he noted, in an email to TheStreet. TheStreet will be live-blogging the WWDC keynote, starting at 12:3- p.m. EDT.

Nissan Unveils Smartphone-Powered LCV Fleet Management System
IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 29, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. has unveiled an IT system for light commercial vehicles that harnesses the power of smartphones to provide safety and performance data to both drivers and fleet managers in real time.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130827/CL70277LOGO-b )
By using the service, demonstrated for the first time at Nissan 360 in California, fleet managers will be able to cut down on running costs by remotely monitoring maintenance information, as well as the driving behavior of their staff, while the vehicles are on the road. Drivers will also receive real-time information to help them operate their vehicles more safely.
Nissan aims to install the system in the vehicles for business owners which are being considered for launches in the future.The service works by linking a smartphone, or other connected device, wirelessly to the vehicle's IT system, while maintaining a high level of security. Data is then uploaded using the mobile telephony network to the cloud where it can be accessed by fleet managers remotely. By integrating smartphones into the system Nissan will be able to offer, at a low price, services comparable to a dedicated car navigation system for businesses. The features that have been unveiled are: (1) Services for drivers
- Notify when the vehicle exceeds preset speed
- Eco-driving and smart driving diagnosis results
- Automated notification of EV charging spots when battery capacity is low (applicable for electric vehicles)
- Function for confirming vehicle location

EPPD: Gunman opens fire outside Northeast El Paso nighclub
EL PASO (KTSM) — Police were searching for a gunman who opened fire outside a nightclub in Northeast El Paso.
Police said it started as an argument between two groups of people inside the Plush Nightclub on Dyer and Truman at 2 a.m. Saturday. They moved outside and started fighting.
At some point, police said a man pulled out a handgun and started shooting.
No one was hit, but paramedics took one woman to the hospital after a man punched her in the face in the same fight.
The El Paso Police Department's Gang Unit was investigating because police said some of the people involved may be affiliated with gangs.
No arrests have been made.
