'Three Mile Island: Exposing the Government's Cover Up of Our Most Infamous Nuclear Accident; People died -- and are still dying -- at Three Mile Island " This article goes into some detail about all of the initial assurances of safety by regulators and industry, all of which turned out to be lies.
Three Mile Island: 'They Say Nothing Happened'
"Harvey Wasserman, co-author of Killing Our Own: The Disaster of America's Experience With Atomic Radiation, stressed that the What Happened? account comes amid virtually complete inactivity by U.S. media in following up the Three Mile Island accident. (Wasserman has written about the aftermath of TMI for Harrowsmith—5-6/87—and other publications.)"
They interview a lady who did door to door cancer surveys years after the accident, and she said that she found cancer cases AT EVERY HOUSE. This article also points out how the medical industry and the media served as the means to help cover up the whole disaster and all of the consequences of it.
Same old, same old.. The pattern repeats itself… ad nauseum.. In Russia, at Chernobyl, at TMI, in the USA, and now in Japan, at Fukushima.
Same old, same old, only getting worse, and bigger. http://www.fair.org/index.php?page=4021
'Investigation: Revelations about Three Mile Island disaster raise doubts over nuclear plant safety'
The official govt report and NRC said that no one was hurt or killed by TMI, just like Fukushima. This report illustrates that the cancer rate of downwinders was increased by 80% over average citizens not exposed. Read the chilling reports of 'downwinders' who experienced high radiation dose signs, which were completely ignored and discounted by the nuclear industry. It sounds just like what is happening around Fukushima and also Chernobyl.
Another Coverup At Three Mile Island… Lies Discovered About Control Rods
There was an initial cover up phase right after TMI-2. The NRC Rogovin Commission and the Kennedy Commission claimed that all 69 out of 69 control rods were inserted during the emergency cooling effort, called a scram and that they all worked properly.
Later, everyone involved on the nuclear industry, media and government side came out with public statements officially assuring everyone that not only did all control rods worked properly, they all claimed that no one was harmed or killed, and that no harmful radiation amounts were released. This all turned out to be a lie.
At TMI-2 it was found that the entire central control rod group failed to fall into the core, which is required in order to cool the reactor and keep it from melting down. The rod group circling core central became known as "The Void at the Center of the Core".
The GEND report was produced to answer questions raised about these control rods. They found that only 61 of them actually did get inserted into the nuclear core, but the rest DID NOT. This is part of what caused a partial meltdown of the core, resulting in 20 tons of nuclear material melting down, with a huge radiation release, that resulted in massive numbers of cancers, genetic diseases and deaths.
Study suggests Three Mile Island radiation may have injured people living near reactor
"Several hundred people at the time of the accident reported nausea, vomiting, hair loss and skin rashes, and a number said their pets died or had symptoms of radiation exposure," he said. " After adjusting for pre-accident cancer incidence, we found a striking increase in cancers downwind from Three Mile Island….it is known that plant radiation monitors went off scale when the accident started."
"Using better analytic and statistical techniques, he found that among the 20,000 people who lived near the plant and close to the plume's path, lung cancer and leukemia rates were two or more times higher than what they were near the plant but upwind from the plume. Among those in the most direct path of the plumes, lung cancer incidence went up by 300 to 400 percent, and leukemia rates were up by 600 to 700 percent." http://www.albionmonitor.com/9703a/3milecancer.html
TMI Facts [Source: Arnold Gundersen, expert witness TMI 1994 trial, video link at http://www.nirs.org/reactorwatch/accidents/tmipowerpoint.pdf
"TMI's radiation monitors onsite were off-scale; radiation estimates are based math assumptions applied upon off-site dose readings.
Early on in the accident, the NRC estimated that 10,000,000 Curies of radiation were released. The NRC estimate is based on a report by NRC manager, Mr. Lake Barrett. NUREG-0637, Appendix C. Barrett used time averaged plume dispersion (Chi/Q); assumed the center (highest concentration) of the plume hits the detector; and then averaged many days of releases. Time averaged plume dispersion can be wrong on the low side by a factor of 10. Center line Chi/Q can be wrong on the low side by a factor of a 1000. Averaging the data is wrong on the low side by a factor of 3.4. Barrett recorded the maximum curies released each day; the grand total of each day's recording adds up to 36,062,000 curies released at TMI; yet the NRC insists that only 10,000 curies were released.
During the 1994 TMI Trial, John Daniel (industry's expert), determined that 17,000,000 Curies were released. Industry's own expert estimated that more radiation was released than the NRC, the guardian of public safety. Another industry expert report by Dr. Sinovy V. Reytblatt, structural engineer from the University of Bridgeport, estimated that 8-10% of containment was released as result of the spike in pressure inside the containment. The containment had 10 billion curies – 10%= 1 billion curies.
A thorough analysis of the TMI accident indicates that releases were 100 to 1000 times higher than the NRC estimated and that the containment failed after the hydrogen detonation.
NRC and FEMA continue to use NRC's mischaracterization of what was released at TMI. For example NRC's Senior Advisor for Emergency Preparedness Patricia Milligan's claimed [when giving a lecture at Harvard School of Public Health, Radiological Emergency Planning: Terrorism, Security, and Communication August 7, 2008] that when emergency plans were initially written NRC/FEMA did not know that there had been core melt. However now that NRC knows that there had been core melt and that our data still "shows" only a "small release" of radiation occurred, emergency plans and guidelines based on a then lack of understanding of the seriousness of the accident thereby are too conservative. In other words the continued mischaracterization of TMI's releases is used to justify reducing the area in which emergency planning is necessary and to generally water down response planning and exercise scenarios.
Perhaps Sir Walter Scott said it best, "Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive.""
This video explains how the former editor of Japan Times says he is hearing reports from workers at a Fukushima medical college and how in the cold storage rooms there, dead nuke worker bodies are piling up. Allegedly, these bodies are part of approximately ten ambulances per day going to Fukushima, hauling off workers who are collapsing at work inside the plants, and taking them to this cold storage if they do not make it, rather than reporting about these illnesses and/or deaths in public. Officially, no deaths have resulted at Fukushima, despite numerous people dying. The only way deaths are counted as being due to Fukushima radiation, is if a medical doctor certifies the death as being due to this cause, and so far, no doctor has done that. As a matter of record, even though children are suffering from what seems like radiation sickness and have stopped growing, doctors refuse to say this is due to radiation. Everything; illnesses, deaths, and suffering is all some other cause, but NEVER is it radiation. Here is another mainstream media story, saying that they have 'lost contact' with 143 workers. Hmmm, wonder if they could be in cold storage?http://www.japantoday.com/category/national/view/tepco-says-it-has-lost-contact-with-143-nuclear-plant-workers

Michael Moore Asks If Obama Has Drunk The Bush Kool Aid
This is going to leave a mark. Of course, Obama listens to no one but Obama and his political advisers, clueless all (found during a venture into the fever swamps of the DU)
Monday, November 30th, 2009
Dear President Obama,
Do you really want to be the new "war president"? If you go to West Point tomorrow night (Tuesday, 8pm) and announce that you are increasing, rather than withdrawing, the troops in Afghanistan, you are the new war president. Pure and simple. And with that you will do the worst possible thing you could do — destroy the hopes and dreams so many millions have placed in you. With just one speech tomorrow night you will turn a multitude of young people who were the backbone of your campaign into disillusioned cynics. You will teach them what they've always heard is true — that all politicians are alike. I simply can't believe you're about to do what they say you are going to do. Please say it isn't so.
Wait, he's giving his speech at West Point? I smell photo op.
Anyhow, it is now all Obama's war. I guess Michael, with his "all politicians are alike," missed Candidate Neophyte talking about Afghanistan being the good war and promising to put more troops into the conflict time after time.
Choose carefully, President Obama. You of all people know that it doesn't have to be this way. You still have a few hours to listen to your heart, and your own clear thinking. You know that nothing good can come from sending more troops halfway around the world to a place neither you nor they understand, to achieve an objective that neither you nor they understand, in a country that does not want us there. You can feel it in your bones.
I agree with Fat Mike. Obama surely doesn't understand what is going on in Afghanistan. Just like he doesn't understand global warming, healthcare, the economy, the global war on terrorism, bipartisanship, and, oh, how to be President.
I know you know that there are LESS than a hundred al-Qaeda left in Afghanistan! A hundred thousand troops trying to crush a hundred guys living in caves? Are you serious? Have you drunk Bush's Kool-Aid? I refuse to believe it.
Heh! I wonder where Moore is getting the 100 AQ nuts figure. Probably like most liberal ideas, he just made it up because it sounded good. Reality means nothing.
If only Obama would drink more of "Bush's kool aid." He certainly has no clue why he is doing certain things in the fight against Islamic extremism, but, he kept to Bush's Iraq timeline,Gitmo is still not closed, and nowhere close to being closed, he has kept rendition-lite, and many Bush era surveillance ops. On the flip side, it is now called Operation Overseas Contingency and he is going to try KSM and the others in civilian court.
Finally, just for clarity, I have said before and I will say again, I do not believe a surge will work. I think it will simply incent more Islamic jihadis to travel to Afghanistan to kill American troops. But, I will support Obama's decision, whatever it shall be, regarding Afghanistan.

FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) — The Minnesota Twins have agreed to contract terms with third baseman Danny Valencia, pitcher Brian Duensing and 19 other players to officially round out their 40-man roster.
Valencia is the team's starting third baseman after hitting .311 in 85 games as a rookie last year. He worked out with Yankees star Alex Rodriguez in the offseason and has looked impressive in the early going of spring training this year.
Duensing started last season in the bullpen before being inserted into the rotation to help the banged-up and struggling starters. He went 10-3 with a 2.62 ERA and started Game 3 of the AL division series against the Yankees.
Duensing is in a competition with Kevin Slowey and Nick Blackburn for the last two spots in the rotation this year.

A gas pipeline in the east of Syria has caught fire, although production is continuing through alternative pipelines, according to Syrian government officials.Residents said that two explosions hit two minor gas pipelines in eastern Syria on Wednesday, but the official state news agency, SANA, said a pipeline had caught fire due to either dry weather conditions or a leakage from the pipeline."An inquiry has started... most likely the fire was caused by a fire in the nearby grass or leakage in the line... which is under construction," SANA said.Residents said bomb blasts damaged the pipelines in a heavily guarded area in al-Tayana and Busaira regions east of the provincial capital Deir al-Zor, near the border with Iraq."People are suspecting that the regime is behind the attacks to discredit the democracy cause after months of peaceful demonstrations," Sheikh Nawaf al-Khatib, a prominent tribal leader, told the Reuters news agency by phone. "It is very difficult to hit those pipelines with more troops deploying in Deir al-Zor lately."
Deir al-Zor has been the scene of large protests against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
The pro-government TV station Ikhbariyeh Souriyeh said there were no casualties and that damages to the pipeline were minor.Syria produces about 350,000 barrels of oil per day as well as natural gas.

Jeff Chrisler
Member since
they are the same in that regard - only difference is the lace vs the velcro
Member since
Do you by chance know if they maintain that downturn better than the lace up?
Member since
Velcro has the P3 down turn, definitely maintains it better than the lace ups which do not. These are more aggressive than the lace ups.

Brazil Wants to Clean Up Its Reputation, but Justin Bieber Isn't Helping
Brazil is ready for the big time. The country will host both the 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Summer Olympics, and it's ready to assume its role as one of the world's largest and most influential economies, proving to everyone that there's more to Rio de Janeiro than samba dancing, acai berries and drug dealers. Oh, and prostitutes.
They're having a bit of trouble with that last point, though. In anticipation of the big events, the Brazilian government is running "a 'hygienization' campaign" that consists of doing its damndest to shut down the city's most notorious brothels.
A couple of problems: prostitution is legal in Brazil (though the act of "running a bordello" isn't) and the tabloid media can't seem to get over its fascination with celebrities visiting Rio for…well, you know.

Private Practice Review: "What We Have Here ..."by Christina Tran at . Comments
The past should be left in the past ... right?
Especially when you're talking about a woman who almost killed you and stole your baby, but what about an ex-husband? On Private Practice, Katie Kent returned to stir things up a bit for Violet and Pete. Billy, Charlotte's ex, also made an appearance.
These storylines just weren't enough for me though.
I neither liked nor disliked "What We Have Here ...", but one thing's for sure: Whether or not you are a fan of Sam and Addie, last night definitely couldn't have been easy for you. I know it wasn't for me. We've waited a month for the return of Private Practice, and still don't know where their relationship is going.
We knew that Addison wants a baby. We knew that Sam already has Maya and Olivia. So, why are they still fighting about it? This storyline has dragged on for months now, and I find myself only anticipating an end result.
I've certainly grown tiresome of waiting though.
Then, there was Katie. When the creepy music played and Katie suddenly appeared in Violet's office, I was on the edge of my seat. Throughout the entire episode, I found myself wondering how Katie could have been released after only 18 months.That just does not seem long enough for all of the terrible things she did to Violet.
I was relieved to hear Pete say what I wanted to say to Violet throughout the entire episode: "You can't fix her. No matter how hard you try. You can't fix everyone, Violet. The sooner you accept that the better off we'll all be."
Yes, the sooner Violet accepts that she can't fix everyone, we will all be better off. I get that Violet is who she is, but I thought that she acted recklessly when going to see Katie.
Violet can be unbelievably stubborn at times, and she seemingly acted without regard for Pete and Lucas. I wonder if this will be the last we see of Katie.
Although I don't think it was ever needed in the first place, I'm glad that Violet finally gave her blessing to Sheldon to continue dating Marla. Sheldon deserves to be happy, and I'm hoping Marla will be his date to the wedding next week.
At first, I found it a little strange that Cooper was reaching out to Billy to help Charlotte with closure from her previous marriage. I can't say that I was able to picture any past chemistry with Billy and Charlotte, but I am glad that Charlotte got the closure that she needed. I absolutely adore Cooper and Charlotte, and want them to get their happily ever after.
I wasn't fully satisfied with this episode, but next week Charlotte and Cooper are getting married. I can't wait!
By the way, Amelia's such a great friend and is a rock star in the operating room. I'd love to see her get her own storyline.
Did you like this episode? Are you still rooting for Sam and Addie? Do you think that Violet violated any doctor-patient confidentiality laws? Discuss!
I totally agree with Aries93 and tanz in all points.
Additionally I think that almost all characters on Private Practice act very, very immature and reckless, particulary Violet! The only ones I still care about and therefore watch it, are Charlotte, Cooper and Amelia. The others ones just became more and more annoying.
love addisam too! they will break up and they get back together next season or maybe addie will be pregnant end of this season :O anyway i hope they have a happily ever after love them! and hope the new doc is for amelia
I totally agree with Eysa. great post. they do come from lousy marriages and of course Maya suffered from Nae/Sam divorce, he doesnt want to put a new child through the same thing, He wants to be sure they are both committed to each other. I like that Point of View. I hope they work on the relationship once and for all I have no doubt there is Love between them.
I like the angst between Sam and Addison, I understand both of them but we need to move on with the storyline they are having the same conversation over and over again, I know they love each and they dont want to let go maybe what they need its time. I really love how realistic it is. Addison loves Sam and wants a baby with him, Sam wants to know that addison is committed to him and that they are ready for a baby, both come from awful relationships Nae/Derek so I understand that Sam is scared.
Bring More addisam.
Amelia is definitely Team AddiSam. she is awesome. Loved the last scene between Sam and Addison so passionate, I cant wait to see more of them. Love AddiSam
To be quiet honest I am sick of this, Private Practice has lost all charm and seems like when things get dull they kill someone off. Its seriously getting annoying the writers need to stop recycling storyline if they want to have a job. I am really starting to grow tiresome over the Sam and Addison relationship, ovbiously Sam never wanted the same thing Addison has. What gets to me the most is how he keeps acting like he didnt see this coming thats how this show started!! For goodness sake give the woman a child already she sure deserves some happiness! I really hope they get their act straight soon because I am really happy to let go of watching this show as it is just becoming a dragged story. Also Violet, stupid careless woman! I really really dislike her she wants everything and is possibly the most selfish person anyone can write out, I really want the writers to teach her a good lesson..
2 months. Thats how long it was Naomi and Sam kissed. It was Feb 24th. And like @Teniba said, it served no purpose. I am still quite frankly mad that it's been 5 episodes now that we've had to wait. Why drag it out? If they're gonna break up, then just do it. I don't wanna have to wait months to find out whither or not they're gonna last. 2 episodes would have been fine, but 5? Seriously? I didn't mind Addison and Sam, but as it went on, they got boring. There is no passion there. And clearly Sam does not feel the same anymore considering he was going to chase Naomi after the kiss. I'd prefer those two over Sam and Addison. If only Audra McDonald were not leaving. I think Shonda broke the seal of friendship between these two. She ruined the bond they had and turned it into a stereotype that the best friends (who are make and female) get together. Completely ridiclois. Just please, break them up. As for the other storylines, they were handled pretty well to me. It was good to see crazy Katie again. I'm glad she's not suing Violet anymore, but I amnactually glad that Violet may have her liscence suspended. She has crossed the line too many times over the 4 year span of this show. She's a nosey bitch and I hope her medical liscence does get suspended. As for Charlotte and Cooper, it's good that Charlotte got closure with her ex-husband. I must say that I was shocked when he told her he was gay. That I did not see coming. But it's good to know that she believes she did nothing wrong. So excited for the wedding next week. :) I must say that I enjoy Amelia and her comic relief. Although, I'm still waiting for her to have a storyline. She's getting treating more like a supporting character rather than a main character. The character needs to branch her wings out. I hope something comes her way soon. :D Overall, it was okay. It wasn't good, nor bad to me. I give the episode 3/5 stars.
You're being much too kind. This episode just truly sucked.
and by the way, what was really interesting about having that naomi and sam kiss on the deck? it served actually no purpose at all?
the writting on sam and addison has been hawfull after maybe episode 7... really terrible they didn't just know what to do with those two... and now they want to break them up but are just dragging that process for a cliffhanger that i think is preditible for season finale: they have broken up but addison is pregant by the way! Other than that why they have to drag a breakup over 3 to 4 episodes is beyond comprehension!

"Can one woman achieve so much and still remain sane?"
The hot new video that my students are showing me features a sexy undulating woman in a cage. She is wearing a flesh-colored body stocking; it looks as if she's naked, except for the black leather belt and requisite black high heels. In this video, particularly during the cage sequence, there is a lot of dyed-blonde hair-flipping. In addition there is panting and growling.
Fifty years of the women's movement, and this is what we've got: a girl on her belly in a cage in a sort of "Girls Gone Wild" meets "Animal Planet" scenario.
I'm so proud.
It's not that I'm bitter, but doesn't this new video-the singer is Shakira and the song is "She Wolf"-- remind you of the proposed cover for Smell the Glove, as discussed by the band members of Spinal Tap?
You remember: Fran Drescher is the band's publicist, and she's saying, "You put a greased naked woman on all fours with a dog collar around her neck and a leash... You don't find that offensive? You don't find that sexist?" The band's manager dismisses her by saying, "This is 1982, Bobby. Come on." And she says, "That's right. It's 1982. Get out of the 60s. We don't have this mentality any more."

I agree with Steve. I don't really see how this is saving anyone any time, because unlike the sandwich post, these aren't "grab and go" items. The thaw time in the pan is probably equivalent to the prep time to make them.

I guess if someone frequently runs out of cheese or tortillas, they might make these in advance so that the ingredients remain "hands off" for the family, but ready to go when they have a playgroup or something like that. .....or maybe for some people, just knowing that these are prepped and in the freezer is enough incentive to bypass fast food restaurants and go home for a cheaper meal.

But again, I can't see that it's any faster. If it works for you, though, go for it!

Too much work. Place tortilla straight on the counter. Put some pre-grated cheese (God Bless Kraft) onto half of it. Fold. Place into toaster oven. Done. Want to be neat about it? Use a paper towel on the counter.

While I'm sharing my Bachelor Chow Compliant recipes, I'll also share my ultimate secret: cracker pizza. Take four saltines, toss a small squirt of ketchup on each (you can go fancy with pizza or spaghetti sauce if you like), and one slice of cheese. Fold the cheese into fours and place one on each saltine. Toss into microwave for 20 seconds and you have a delicious snack. Make two servings and you have a meal. It's better than toast + ketchup + cheese since the crackers have more crunch in them (thin and crispy!).

Model seder demonstrated at Westchester Community College
Students and faculty from the Culinary Arts and Management program at Westchester Community College presented a model seder luncheon Thursday, which was led by Rabbi Frank Tamburello, who also explained the ritual feast for non-Jewish guests. The program's model seder, which wasn't offered last year because of a lack of facilities, took place for the first time in the school's new Instructional Dining Room inside the recently renovated Student Center Building in Valhalla. The Passover seder is a Jewish ritual feast that marks the beginning of the Jewish holiday of Passover, which this year begins March 25 and ends the evening of April 2. (March 14, 2013)

The 12-year veteran was a key reserve for the Clippers, his impact going way beyond his marginal numbers (5.2 points, 4.3 rebounds) for a team that reached the second round of the playoffs for the second time in franchise history. But sources said the 34-year-old power forward is holding up this later stage of the hiring process for frontcourt free agents, with the Lakers and the Nets among the teams he's considering and negotiation leverage seemingly gone because so many of his colleagues seem willing to take minimum deals.

The Edmonton Rush (4-0) used a second-half comeback in Week 5 to move atop the NLL Power Rankings. (Photo: Dale MacMillan)
After three thrilling one-goal games in Week 5 of the 2014 National Lacrosse League season, IL Indoor's Brian Shanahan has released his NLL Power Rankings with a new team atop the poll for the first time this year. And to make things even more interesting, the top four teams in the ranks will play against one of the others this weekend. Week 6 features matchups between the first & third and second & fourth-ranked teams.
With an impressive 9-8 comeback road win over the Vancouver Stealth, the Edmonton Rush (4-0) are now the only unbeaten team in the league. The Buffalo Bandits (4-1), on a four-game win streak of their own, helped make that happen by holding on for an 11-10 home win over the two-time defending champion Rochester Knighthawks (3-1) to snap their win streak and four-week reign of the top spot of the rankings.
"There were only three games in Week 5 of the NLL but each game was an exciting one goal decision," Shanahan writes. "In Calgary, John Grant's overtime winner was the type of goal that only he can score. After making a one handed catch with a defender draped all over him, Grant scored on a no-look over the shoulder shot. That victory gave Colorado a much needed second victory this season. In Vancouver the Stealth built up a 7-2 lead but were outshot 32-16 in the second half and more importantly outscored 7-1 to give the Edmonton Rush a 8-7 win and their fourth straight victory to start the season. The Buffalo Bandits also got their fourth straight victory by a final score of 11-10 and handed Rochester their first loss. If you want an example of why lacrosse is such an exciting game check out the last few minutes of that game. Buffalo was leading 11-5 with less than five minutes remaining when Rochester silenced the Buffalo crowd with 5 straight goals. Jay Thorimbert's faceoff win with 19 seconds remaining allowed Buffalo to hang on for the victory and let the fans go home happy. There are some changes to the Power Rankings. Let's check it out."
1) Edmonton Rush (4-0) (+1)
The Rush showed resilience on Saturday in their come from behind 8-7 victory over the Vancouver Stealth. They are the highest scoring team. They have the best goals against average and even though it's still early in the NLL season they have shown they are capable of beating teams in different ways. Next week the Rochester Knighthawks are in Edmonton. Even though the defending champs are no longer undefeated, that won't dampen the anticipation surrounding next week's battle.
2) Buffalo Bandits (4-1) (+1)
A huge 11-10 victory over the Rochester Knighthawks confirms what we thought we were seeing. The Buffalo Bandits are back. After taking last weekend off John Tavares scored 4 goals for the Bandits and veteran goaltender Anthony Cosmo looks like he may have regained the form that made him one of the world's best box goaltenders a few years ago. Next weekend the Bandits will host another rival, the hated Toronto Rock in their second battle of the year.

I picked up this quiver a couple of weeks ago and it is everything the modern archer needs. The construction is durable and the quality is apparent in every aspect of the design. It really helps organize your arrows. The storage pockets are a welcome addition. Just make sure you order a quiver belt with it.

Poll finds worldwide agreement climate change is a threat
Conducted by the Chicago Council on Global Public Affairs and World Public Opinion, the survey includes China, India, the U.S., Indonesia, Russia, Thailand, Ukraine, Poland, Iran, Mexico, South Korea, Philippines, Australia, Argentina, Peru, Israel, Armenia and the Palistinian territories.
Twelve countries were asked whether steps should be taken to combat climate change and a majority in all but one favored action. The largest majorities favoring action were 92 per cent in Australia, 83 per cent in China and Israel and 80 per cent in the U.S., the world's largest producer of greenhouse gases.
In Australia, Argentina, Israel, the U.S. and Armenia, the majority wanted steps taken now even if it involves significant cost. Respondents were evenly divided in China and Russia, while in Philippines, Thailand, Poland, Ukraine and India, people believe global warming is gradual so low-cost measures are sufficient.
Previous Comments
the concept of probability? How about the concept of threat? The consensus is not about "making science real", it's an assessment of the level of threat. I'm not sure if your brain can make such subtle distinctions, but there you go.
You're right about one thing: science has changed things for the better. And now it's the vast majority of scientists who are telling us that the level of threat is high. So if you respect "science" at all, you would be taking the consensus very seriously.
"So if you respect "science" at all, you would be taking the consensus very seriously."
Science is not a democracy.
Actually I noticed this week the CBC national news running green stories of communities who have gone green in a number of ways starting years ago. Such examples were not limited to but included, waste treatment plants collecting methane and then burning it to run their heating, or using solar pannels to heat to provide over 90% of the heating for pool, house projects built to be heated entirely by solar or that Calgary is now running about 70% of its electrical needs via wind power and this is in Alberta the bastion of fossil fuel country. Not only have these greening measures reduced the carbon outputs of many buildings by over 50% in many cases the governments of these communities are proudly proclaiming how much money they are saving due to increased effiency. All of this econmic disaster BS is getting silly allready, if small communities of less than 20,000 can find going green economicially profitable and large cities like Calgary which have over a million can find ways to get ahead of many major cities in Canada in terms of their CO2 reductions why cant so many other places.

The Day the Music Died, dubbed so by a lyric in the Don McLean song "American Pie", is a reference to the deaths of rock and roll musicians Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and J. P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson, in a plane crash near Clear Lake, Iowa, on February 3, 1959. Pilot Roger Peterson was also killed.
After terminating his partnership with the Crickets, Buddy Holly assembled a new band consisting of Waylon Jennings, Tommy Allsup, and Carl Bunch, to play on the '"Winter Dance Party" tour. The tour also featured rising artists Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper, who were promoting their own recordings as well. The tour was to cover 24 Midwestern cities in three weeks.
The distance between venues and the conditions prevalent aboard the poorly equipped tour buses adversely affected the performers. Cases of flu spread among the band members, and Carl Bunch was hospitalized due to frostbite. Frustrated by the conditions, Holly decided to charter a plane when they stopped for their performance in the Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa, to reach their next venue in Moorhead, Minnesota. Carroll Anderson, owner of the Surf Ballroom, chartered the plane from the Dwyer Flying Service. Richardson, who was affected by the flu, swapped places with Waylon Jennings, taking the latter's place on the plane, while Tommy Allsup lost his place to Ritchie Valens on a coin toss. Dion DiMucci (of Dion and the Belmonts fame) decided not to board the plane for the $36 fee (equivalent to $291 in 2014).
The investigation of the accident determined that soon after take off, a combination of poor weather conditions and pilot error caused spatial disorientation that made pilot Roger Peterson lose control of the plane. Hubert Dwyer, owner of the flight service company, could not establish radio contact and reported the aircraft missing the next morning. He took off in his own Cessna 180 and spotted the wreckage less than six miles (9.7 km) northwest of the originating airport in a cornfield. He notified the authorities who dispatched Deputy Bill McGill, who drove to the wreck site and found the bodies of the passengers and pilot. They were later identified by Carroll Anderson.
Buddy Holly terminated his association with the Crickets and his manager Norman Petty during a reunion in Lubbock, Texas, on November 3, 1958. For the start of the "The Winter Dance Party" tour, he assembled a band consisting of Waylon Jennings (bass), Tommy Allsup (guitar), and Carl Bunch (drums). The tour was set to cover 24 Midwestern cities in as many days.[1][2] New hit artist Ritchie Valens,[3] J. P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson, and Dion DiMucci joined the tour to promote their recordings and make an extra profit.[4]
The tour began in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on January 23, 1959. The amount of travel created a logistical problem with the tour. The distance between venues had not been considered when scheduling each performance. Adding to the disarray, the tour bus was not equipped for the weather. Its heating system broke down shortly after the tour began, in Appleton, Wisconsin. While flu spread among the rest of the performers, Holly's drummer, Carl Bunch, was hospitalized in Ironwood, Michigan, for severely frostbitten feet. The musicians replaced that bus with a school bus and kept traveling.[4] As Holly's group had been the backing band for all of the acts, Holly, Valens, and DiMucci took turns playing drums for each other at the Green Bay, Wisconsin, and Clear Lake, Iowa, performances.[5]
On February 2, the tour arrived in Clear Lake, where they were to play at the Surf Ballroom. The venue had not been a scheduled stop, but the tour promoters, hoping to fill an open date, called Surf Ballroom manager Carroll Anderson and offered him the show. He accepted and they set the show for that night. By the time Holly arrived at the venue that Monday evening, he was frustrated with the tour bus. Holly decided to charter a plane to take him to Fargo, North Dakota, so the party could pick them up to the next stop in Moorhead, Minnesota, to avoid traveling in the bus, and to have enough time to do laundry.[4]
Carroll Anderson called Hubert Dwyer, owner of the Dwyer Flying Service, a company in Mason City, Iowa, to charter the plane to get to Fargo, North Dakota.[6] Flight arrangements were made with Roger Peterson, a 21-year-old local pilot. The flying service charged a fee of $36 per passenger for the single-engined, 1947 Beechcraft Bonanza 35 (V-tail), N3794N.[7] The Bonanza sat three passengers and the pilot.[8] Richardson had contracted flu during the tour and asked Waylon Jennings for his seat on the plane. When Holly learned that Jennings was not going to fly, he said in jest, "Well, I hope your ol' bus freezes up." Jennings responded, "Well, I hope your ol' plane crashes," a humorous but ill-fated response that haunted Jennings for the rest of his life.[9]
Ritchie Valens, who had once had a fear of flying, asked Tommy Allsup for his seat on the plane. Allsup and Valens decided to toss a coin to decide.[6] Bob Hale, a DJ with KRIB-AM, was working the concert that night and flipped the coin in the ballroom's sidestage room shortly before the musicians departed for the airport. Valens won the coin toss for the seat on the flight. Dion had been approached to join the flight, although it is unclear exactly when he was asked. Dion decided that since the $36 fare (equivalent to US$291.20 in 2014)[10] equaled the monthly rent his parents paid for his childhood apartment, he could not justify the indulgence.[11]
When the show ended, Carroll Anderson drove Holly, Valens, and Richardson to the airport.[12] The plane departed from the ramp and taxied to then-Runway 17 at around 12:55 a.m. Central Time on Tuesday, February 3.[13] The weather report indicated light snow with a ceiling of 5,000 feet (1,500 m) and winds from 29 to 37 mph (47 to 60 km/h). Though there were indications of deteriorating weather along the route, the weather briefings Peterson received failed to relay the information.[14] The Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB)—an agency later replaced by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB)—investigated the crash. The results of the CAB investigation suggest that, soon after takeoff, Peterson became disoriented due to the unfamiliar way the attitude indicator in the aircraft functioned, combined with an inability to find a point of visual reference on a starless night with no visible lights on the ground.[15] He lost control of the plane, and the tip of the right wing hit the ground. The aircraft tumbled across a cornfield belonging to Albert Juhl. The Bonanza was at a slight downward angle and banked heavily to the right when it struck the ground at around 170 mph (270 km/h). The plane appears to have crumpled and then skidded another 570 feet (170 m) across the frozen landscape before the broken wreckage came to rest against a wire fence at the edge of Juhl's property.[16]
Dwyer, the owner of the plane and the flight service company, who had witnessed the takeoff, decided to establish radio contact, but all attempts were unsuccessful.[13] Later that morning, when Hector Airport in Fargo, North Dakota, had not heard from Peterson, Dwyer contacted authorities and reported the aircraft missing. Dwyer took off in his Cessna 180 and flew Peterson's intended route. Within minutes he spotted the wreckage less than six miles (9.7 km) northwest of the airport.[16] The Sheriff's office dispatched Deputy Bill McGill, who drove to the wreck site.[15] The bodies of Holly and Valens lay near the plane. Richardson's body was thrown over the fence and into the cornfield of Juhl's neighbor Oscar Moffett. Peterson's body was entangled in the plane's wreckage.[16] With the other participants on "The Winter Dance Party" en route to Moorhead, it fell to Surf Ballroom manager Carroll Anderson, who drove the musicians to the airport and witnessed the plane's takeoff, to make positive identifications of the musicians.[17] The county coroner Ralph Smiley declared that all four had died instantly from "gross trauma" to the brain.[16]
Civil Aeronautics Board investigators concluded that the crash was due to a combination of poor weather conditions and pilot error, resulting in spatial disorientation. Peterson, working on his instrument rating at the time, was still taking flight instrumentation tests and was not yet certified for flight into weather that required flying solely by instruments rather than by his own vision. The final Civil Aeronautics Board report noted that Peterson had taken his instrument training on airplanes equipped with an artificial horizon attitude indicator and not the far-less-common Sperry Attitude Gyro the Bonanza was equipped with. Peterson had also failed his instrument checkride shortly before the accident. Critically, the two instruments display aircraft pitch attitude but depict such information in a visual manner opposite of one another; therefore, the board considered that this could have caused Peterson to think he was ascending when he was, in fact, descending. They also concluded that Peterson did not receive adequate warnings about weather conditions that, given his known limitations, might have caused him to postpone the flight out of prudence.[16]
In 2007, Richardson's son had his father's body exhumed and an autopsy performed to verify the original finding. This was done, in part, because of the long-known discovery of Holly's .22 caliber pistol by Juhl in the cornfield two months after the wreck. This gave rise to the question of whether an accidental firearm discharge had caused the crash, and whether or not Richardson was not hurt as badly and tried to crawl for help, since his body was found farther from the crash site. William M. Bass undertook the procedure and confirmed Smiley's original report. The well-preserved body of Richardson showed "massive fractures from head to toe" confirming that he also died on impact.[18][19]
Holly's pregnant wife, María Elena, watched the first reports of his death on television. A widow after six months of marriage, she miscarried the following day, attributed to "psychological trauma". His mother, who heard the news on the radio in Lubbock, Texas, collapsed. Because of María Elena's miscarriage, the authorities, in the months following, implemented a policy against announcing victims' names until after families are informed.[1] María Elena Holly did not attend the funeral, and has never visited the gravesite. She later told the Avalanche-Journal: "In a way, I blame myself. I was not feeling well when he left. I was two weeks pregnant, and I wanted Buddy to stay with me, but he had scheduled that tour. It was the only time I wasn't with him. And I blame myself because I know that, if only I had gone along, Buddy never would have gotten into that airplane."[20]
Waylon Jennings and Tommy Allsup continued the tour for two more weeks, featuring Jennings as the lead singer.[21] Meanwhile, Holly's funeral was held on February 7, 1959, at the Tabernacle Baptist Church in Lubbock.[22] The service was officiated by Ben D. Johnson, who had presided at the Hollys' wedding just months earlier. The pallbearers were Jerry Allison, Joe B. Mauldin, Niki Sullivan, Bob Montgomery, Sonny Curtis, and Phil Everly.[23] Holly's body was interred in the City of Lubbock Cemetery. His headstone carries the correct spelling of his surname (Holley) and a carving of his Fender Stratocaster guitar.[24]

The song "American Pie" dubbed the accident "The Day The Music Died"
|Problems playing this file? See media help.
The first song to commemorate the musicians was Three Stars by Eddie Cochran.[1] The accident was later the subject of the 1971 Don McLean song American Pie. The song dubbed it in popular culture as "The Day The Music Died",[25] which for McLean, symbolized the "loss of innocence" of the early rock-and-roll generation.[1][26] The accident was depicted in Buddy Holly's 1978 biographical film The Buddy Holly Story, as well as in Ritchie Valens' 1987 biopic La Bamba.[27]
In 1988, Ken Paquette, a Wisconsin fan of the 1950s era, erected a stainless steel monument that depicts a guitar and a set of three records that bear the names of each of the three performers. The monument is on private farmland, about one-quarter mile (0.40 km) west of the intersection of 315th Street and Gull Avenue, five miles (8.0 km) north of Clear Lake. A large plasma-cut-steel set of Wayfarer-style glasses, similar to those Holly wore, sits at the access point to the crash site. Paquette also created a similar stainless steel monument to the three musicians that is located outside the Riverside Ballroom in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where Holly, the Big Bopper, and Valens played their second-to-last show on the night of February 1, 1959. This second memorial was unveiled on July 17, 2003.[28] In February 2009, a new memorial made by Paquette for pilot Roger Peterson was unveiled at the crash site.[29] A road originating near The Surf Ballroom and extending north and passing the west of the crash site is now known as Buddy Holly Place.[30]
Fans of Holly, Valens, and Richardson have been gathering for annual memorial concerts at the Surf Ballroom since 1979.[31] The 50th anniversary concert took place on February 2, 2009, with Delbert McClinton, Joe Ely, Wanda Jackson, Los Lobos, Los Lonely Boys, Chris Montez, Bobby Vee, Graham Nash, Peter and Gordon, Tommy Allsup, and a House Band featuring Chuck Leavell, James "Hutch" Hutchinson, Bobby Keys, Kenny Aronoff and Tommy Allsup. Jay P. Richardson., the son of the Big Bopper was among the participating artists; Bob Hale was the master of ceremonies for this event as he was at the concert in 1959.[32][33]

The Gulf's New Disposable Workforce
The imported proletariat of the Gulf states − the construction workers, domestic workers, nannies, waiters, bellboys, receptionists, cleaners − face countless daily hazards. They endure low wages, cramped bunks, scant legal rights, passport confiscation, debt, physical abuse and deportation at a moment's notice, to name a few.This time last year, a fire swept through a work camp in Bahrain, killing 13 Bangladeshi workers. Two or three such fires occur each year. In 2011, an Indian migrant worker jumped from the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, reportedly after being refused leave, falling 40 floors to his death. In 2012, an Ethiopian maid attempted suicide in Dubai after she had been denied her salary for three months − she was arrested and fined.For every shining skyscraper, every oil sheikh's villa, every five star pool paradise, there is misery, danger and depression for millions of migrants. It is well-known that in the Gulf, infringements of political rights, freedom of speech and gender equality are serious problems, but it is the treatment of migrant workers that is the greatest scandal of all. And these migrant workers are increasingly coming from Africa.
Crossing the Red Sea
Across the Gulf Co-operation Council states − made up of Bahrain, Qatar, Oman, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia and Kuwait − there are estimated to be over 17 million migrants, making up over 40% of the bloc's total population. In the UAE and Qatar, more than 80% of the population are foreigners.Many of these foreign workers arrived in the Gulf from the likes of India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and the Philippines after the oil boom lifted the region's economy. Most of these employees endure difficult circumstances in the hope they can send remittances home to support their families.However, increasingly, workers from African states are now making the trip to the Gulf too. With fewer people from India choosing to cross over to the Gulf as living standards improve in their own homelands, migrants from the likes of Sudan, South Sudan, Uganda, Kenya, Somalia and Ethiopia are filling the gap.Mapping the exact scale of African migration to the Gulf is very difficult, especially given the often unregulated and informal methods through which it occurs, but the UN's Refugee Agency has estimated that over 100,000 Africans made the journey from the Horn of Africa to Yemen − a main transit point on the way to other Gulf states − in 2012 alone.African migrants occupy similar positions to their South Asian counterparts and predecessors and do many of the same jobs, including in the security forces. In January, Sudanese newspaper Al Mashhad advertised 5,000 new positions within the Bahraini police force and army, and according to Walaa Salah Mohamed Abdelrhman, a human rights activist in Sudan, the news piece was backed up by teams scouring both Khartoum and eastern Sudan looking for recruits.Salah claims particular attention is being paid to the Rashaida people and that those signed up are sent to Bahraini training camps for six months, after which they are admitted to the army and offered Bahraini citizenship. A source in Bahrain who wished to remain anonymous also reported that there has been a notable increase in the number of African, possibly Sudanese, riot police.
Disposable workers
Evidence suggests that the treatment received by African migrants has not been any better than that experienced by their South Asian counterparts. In 2011, a gut-wrenching note from a young Kenyan woman to her mother back home was published in a local newspaper:"Mom, yesterday my boss asked me if I want to be sold or not. I fear he might kill me. If it is God's plan that I die in Saudi Arabia, there is nothing I can do. Bye mom." That was the last the family of the 22-year old Kenyan heard from her.Another letter from another worker read: "I am always locked in; eat smelly food or leftovers, one meal a day, I am a Kenyan, please help me get out of here, alert my embassy. You are my last hope." When contacted by the newspaper that published the letter, her employer claimed to be unaware of the situation."These workers are ripe for exploitation," explains Rima Kalush, editor of Migrant Rights, before identifying Ethiopians − who make up a large proportion of migrants in the Gulf, especially Saudi Arabia and UAE − as being particularly vulnerable. "Broadly speaking, Ethiopians are lower paid and favoured less than workers from other countries," she says. "Their governments are often in a lower position to bargain for improved conditions. Several countries don't have any representation in the region at all."Indeed, in November 2013, in a move that highlighted their precarious position in the Gulf, Saudi Arabia − in a bid to reduce its dependency on foreign workers and address unemployment − started deporting undocumented Ethiopians. To date, some estimate that as many as 150,000 have been sent back to Ethiopia empty-handed and left in limbo. Several were reportedly killed in violent raids by immigration police, and there were claims that Saudi vigilantes attacked Ethiopian migrants in the wake of the government's announcement.On the one hand, many in East Africa may be pleased at the opportunity for a new life and employment across the Red Sea. But on the other, the life that awaits many is one of hardship, low pay and scant rights. Nowhere is the status of Africans migrants more tragically and clearly expressed than in the fact that while Gulf states' may be happy to employ them as their new proletariat, they can just as happily get rid of them at a moment's notice.Think Africa Press welcomes inquiries regarding the republication of its articles.

Top Local Tips for Luso
Leitão Sample the leitão - roast suckling pig - in Mealhada, just south of Luso. This town serves the best leitão in Portugal, and the Portuguese travel far to enjoy it. Typically served with sparkling white local wine or local Bairrada reds.
Beware the oddly translated map of the Bussaco forest. The hotel provided us with a somewhat poorly translated map of the forest. It took us about a 1/2 hour just to find the entrance to the first of the three walks the map recommended. The forest itself has next to no signage on the paths and this was the one time I left the GPS in the car. There were lots of wrong turns to take and we took quite a few of them. We eventually found our way by simply sticking to the largest pathway where-ever we went.
Combine with a trip to Coimbra Combine one night at the Bussaco after a city trip to Coimbra, in-between visits to Lisbon and Porto.

Should provide constants (alpha, beta, eta) for some other commonly used materials and media (like air) and/or cite sources on where to get them. Thanks
The software looks good although some basic sketches of the geometries, transducer positioning, materials, axes, naming conventions, etc. should be included in the instructions in order to understand basic examples and develop more advanced ones.
Function "expsweep" works fine, it does what it is intended to do.
On the other hand function "sweepIR" does give an error in line 36: rec=rec(t:end,:); I changed it by rec = rec(1:length(t), :); but I cannot get it to work.
Another thing, use of word "offset" is a reserved word for MATLAB so I had to change it by something else.
Finally, variable Nimp is not documented as to what it is!
Please provide a corrected version of the function and it should work fine.

Texas continues to be the epicenter of job creation in America and today's numbers are further proof that if you want a job, or your company needs employees, Texas is the best place in America to find both."
• In May, Texas added more than 56,000 jobs;
• Texas' unemployment rate dropped to 5.1 percent; and
• All 11 major industries in Texas saw job growth.
