DAVID D. FRIEDMAN. (photo credit:Yonit Schiller)
Free markets are good for religion, and religion can often be good for the free market, visiting US economist and legal scholar David D. Friedman told The Jerusalem Post Monday.Friedman was in Israel to speak at a conference organized by the Jerusalem Institute for Market Studies entitled "Religion and Economic Liberty: A Match Made in Heaven?" The conference was organized to coincide with the 100th birthday of Friedman's father, the late Milton Friedman, who was considered one of the 20th century's most influential economists."If you don't have a free market and your religion is not the majority, you have real problems," Friedman said."After all, if the government decides which books to print and you are 10 percent of the population and they don't like you very much, you may not get your version of the Bible published very often."And if the government decides who gives speeches, and if it publishes the newspapers, it is hard for any minority to survive. And I think that's the reason Jews have done better in free market societies than in places like the Soviet Union."Friedman says he is "not a religious believer," although he takes a particular interest in Jewish law, and teaches a course at Santa Clara University about halakha, Islamic law, imperial Chinese law, native American law and other ancient legal systems. He is also writing a book on the same topic, under the working title Legal Systems Very Different from Ours.Giving an example from Talmudic law, Friedman explained that religions can play a role in strengthening the free market. "If you read Maimonides, there were some legal situations where whether or not you were willing to swear on something decided whether you won or lost the case," he said."This is a case where religion actually helps the market work, because the religion gives you a lie detector. If you are a believer, you will be very reluctant to swear a false oath, either because you think God will punish you or because you think you ought not to do it. It's easier to make the market work if you have a way of making people tell the truth. It's true of some other legal systems, not only Jewish law."

Google Reader Preparing for Google+ Integration
Google Reader Preparing for Google+ Integration
Clint Boulton
Posted 2011-10-23
Google is removing social features of Reader as the company preps for the RSS feed reader's integration with the Google+ social network.
Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) is removing social features of its Google Reader application in preparation of the RSS feed reader's imminent integration with the Google+ social network, the company said Oct. 20. Google Reader lets users subscribe to receive links to content from some of their favorite news sources, including blogs and traditional publications. One the darlings of Internet geeks, RSS readers have been cast aside by more forward-looking digerati for Twitter and other real-time services, including Facebook and Google+.
To that end, Google will retire friending, following and shared links to blogs in Reader, which like Google Search, Gmail and Maps before it, is also getting a brand-new design. That redesign will include tight integration with Google+, which the search engine provider is making the focal point of its social software tools.
"We're going to bring Reader and Google+ closer together, so you can share the best of your feeds with just the right circles," wrote
Google software engineer Alan Green
in a blog post, adding that Reader users can start creating Reader-centric Circles on Google+. Google recognizes that there is an inherent risk in angering some users by quashing Reader's social features, so the company is letting users export their subscriptions, shared items, friends, likes and starred items. However, users already follow and share links on Google+ through the Circles sharing construct, so enabling users to easily share Reader blog posts and news stories in Google+ should be a natural activity for most users. Indeed, Reader's integration with Google+ merely continues the pattern Google has created in integrating the social network with the company's search, YouTube, Gmail and other existing tools.
Google+ is getting traction, having accrued over 40 million users since launching in late June. Users have also shared more than 3.4 billion photos in the last 100 days. With Google+, the search provider is engaging rival Facebook in the war for users' attention. Incumbent network Facebook has more than 800 million users, some of whom use the service an average of eight hours per month. That's a lot of eyeballs, time and ad clicks that Google is not getting. Google+ is getting several enhancements over the coming weeks, said
Vic Gundotra, the Google senior vice president tasked with running the Google+ effort
. For example, Google+ will eventually enable users to publish content under pseudonyms, allow businesses to build brand pages and integrate with Google Apps. Perhaps most importantly, Google will release APIs to allow developers to build applications that work with Google+. Ultimately, Google+ will be woven across all of Google's Web services. "By Christmas, you'll start to see it all come together," Gundotra promised at the Web 2.0 Summit.

Simple tips to start and maintain good habits
Over the last few weeks we have established how important consistency is to maintain your health. Solidifying components of your life allows your body to optimize its function to better pursue your performance goals -- no matter what they may be. Whether you want to be a high-performance athlete or simply be able to work longer and chase your kids around without pain or fatigue, it takes practice and precision. Last time we tackled sleep; how to understand and control this life variable to better serve us. Now that your nocturnal ritual has been perfected, let's get to moving -- exercise is next on the list.
While a few of you eager people out there are looking forward to your morning workout, most of us have trouble getting there for one reason or another. We see it as a chore, a time commitment and a check-box we would rather avoid, but need to get done because for some reason we know it's good for us. Is it possible for us to shift our perception of exercise and successfully make it an enjoyable part of our routine? You may have heard some of these tips ad nauseam, but realizing how simple, routine exercise can contribute to your day-to-day health may be your key to maintaining a daily workout. You know how much exercise benefits your health, but you've had trouble stabilizing it -- it's really not that hard, nor does it take much time (only dedication), to make it a habit.
Keep it simple:
Have a daily baseline workout program. Social media has blown the top off workout sharing and basic, daily challenges. While I'll admit some of the exercises and high repetition have sullied the effectiveness of these formats -- their simplicity is their beauty. For example, every day (or at least every second day) you wake up and perform 20 squats, 20 pushups, and 20 plank-holds and repeat this circuit three times. It may only take you five minutes, but even if you miss your workout later in the day it has injected planned exercise into your routine.
Something like this should be used as a baseline, and shouldn't take the place of a more significant workout; it's your insurance, that three or five or seven days a week -- you exercised routinely. Keep it simple and short, change it every so often to avoid imbalances, and make sure the repetitions are manageable; it's a great little adjunct to your time in the gym and ensures you a sense of accomplishment.
Schedule, wisely:
You've instituted your quick little baseline workout, but now it's time to organize your actual regimen at the gym (or at home). Scheduling them in some sort of planner decreases your chances of brushing it off, and actually planning out your workout beforehand ensures you aren't wasting valuable time at the gym wandering around. Scheduling workouts early in the day as opposed to at night often means they are more likely accomplished, and if you miss a morning workout you have more time to reschedule it that same day.
Don't break
the habit:
If you have successfully instituted a workout plan, it is imperative you keep it up for four to six weeks for it to become a habit. Even if you don't really have time for a workout, head to the gym for 10 minutes and stretch briefly. If your time is extremely short, just show up and ask the staff a few questions you may have about your workout, the equipment, etc. Most of us could exercise at home, but an environment dedicated to working out without disturbances or distractions is worth $50 a month. Make that money worthwhile and go there all the time -- no matter what.
Your body relies on routine exercise to survive. Along with sleep and diet, it is one of the most modifiable variables in homeostasis/health, but even so, it is often neglected and passed over for more pressing tasks. Giving yourself a simple baseline routine requires very little time and effort, and can be a catalyst to a successful and beneficial fitness regimen. Get your rest, exercise regularly, and eat well (our next topic pertaining to routine), and realize what a rock-solid routine can do for you.

Laurie's Reviews > The Royal Road to Fotheringhay (Stuart Saga, #1)
The Royal Road to Fotheringhay (Stuart Saga, #1) (Mary Stuart, #1)
by Jean Plaidy
by Jean Plaidy
The best book I've ever read about Mary Queen of Scots was Margaret George's historical fiction. This one was written way before...and has plenty of Plaidy's florid style which alternates between charm and tedium. I enjoy Plaidy enough to try to read all of her re-released historical royalty series, but perhaps I'm a bit of a masochist.

ABSTRACT: Geochemical and mineralogical changes were evaluated at a field Fe0-PRB at the Oak Ridge Y-12 site concerning operation performance during the treatment of U in high NO3- groundwater. In the 5-yr study period, the Fe0 remained reactive as shown in pore water monitoring data, where increases in pH and the removal of certain ionic species persisted. However, coring revealed varying degrees of cementation. After 3.8-yr treatment, porosity reduction of up to 41.7% was obtained from mineralogical analysis on core samples collected at the upgradient gravel-Fe0 interface. Elsewhere, Fe0 filings were loose with some cementation. Fe0 corrosion and pore volume reduction at this site are more severe due to the presence of NO3- at a high level. Tracer tests indicate that hydraulic performance deteriorated: the flow distribution was heterogeneous and under the influence of interfacial cementation a large portion of water was diverted around the Fe0 and transported outside the PRB. Based on the equilibrium reductions of NO3- and SO4(2-) by Fe0 and mineral precipitation, geochemical modeling predicted a maximum of 49% porosity loss for 5 yr of operation. Additionally, modeling showed a spatial distribution of mineral precipitate volumes, with the maximum advancing from the interface toward downgradient with time. This study suggests that water quality monitoring, coupled with hydraulic monitoring and geochemical modeling, can provide a low-cost method for assessing PRB performance.Journal of Contaminant Hydrology 12/2005; 80(1-2):71-91. · 2.70 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Geochemical and mineralogical changes were evaluated at a field Fe0-PRB at the Oak Ridge Y-12 site concerning operation performance during the treatment of U in high NO3− groundwater.

ABSTRACT: Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) combined with X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to identify mineral phases and determine corrosion rates of granular iron samples from a 2-yr field column study. Similar to other studies, goethite, magnetite, aragonite, and calcite were found to be the major precipitated minerals, with Fe2(OH)2CO3 and green rust as minor phases. Based on TGA-mass spectrometry (MS) analysis, Fe0 corrodes at rates of 0.5-6.1 mmol kg(-1) d(-1) in the high NO3- (up to 13.5 mM) groundwater; this rate is significantly higher than previously reported. Porosity reduction was 40.6%-45.1% for the inlet sand/Fe0 interface and 7.4%-25.6% for effluent samples of two test columns. Normalized for treatment volumes, porosity loss values are consistent with studies that use high levels of SO4(2-) but are higher than those using low levels of corrosive species. Aqueous mass balance calculations yield corrosion rates similar to the TGA-MS method, providing an alternative to coring and mineralogical analysis. A severely corroded iron sample from the column simulating a 17-yr treatment throughput showed >75% porosity loss. Extensive porosity loss due to high levels of corrosive species in groundwater will have significant impact on long-term performance of permeable reactive barriers.Environmental Science and Technology 12/2004; 38(21):5757-65. · 5.48 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This paper reports on the formation and dissolution of CO2/seawater/CO2 hydrate composite particles produced during field experiments in Monterey Bay, CA using a CO2 injector system previously developed in the laboratory. The injector consisted of a coflow reactor wherein water was introduced as a jet into liquid CO2, causing vigorous mixing of the two immiscible fluids to promote the formation of CO2 hydrate that is stable at ambient pressures and temperatures typical of ocean depths greater than approximately 500 m. Using flow rate ratios of water and CO2 of 1:1 and 5:1, particulate composites of CO2 hydrate/liquid CO2/seawater phases were produced in seawater at depths between 1100 and 1300 m. The resultant composite particles were tracked by a remotely operated vehicle system as they freely traveled in an imaging box that had no bottom or top walls. Results from the field experiments were consistent with laboratory experiments, which were conducted in a 70 L high-pressure vessel to simulate the conditions in the ocean at intermediate depths. The particle velocity and volume histories were monitored and used to calculate the conversion of CO2 into hydrate and its subsequent dissolution rate after release into the ocean. The dissolution rate of the composite particles was found to be higher than that reported for pure CO2 droplets. However, when the rate was corrected to correspond to pure CO2, the difference was very small. Results indicate that a higher conversion of liquid CO2 to CO2 hydrate is needed to form negatively buoyant particles in seawater when compared to freshwater, due primarily to the increased density of the liquid phase but also due to processes involving brine rejection during hydrate formation.Environmental Science and Technology 05/2004; 38(8):2470-5. · 5.48 Impact Factor - AIChE Journal 04/2004; 49(1):283 - 285. · 2.58 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: The operating life of an Fe(0)-based permeable reactive barrier (PRB) is limited due to chemical reactions of Fe(0) in groundwater. The relative contributions from mineral precipitation, gas production, and microbial activity to the degradation of PRB performance have been uncertain. In this controlled field study, nitrate-rich, site groundwater was treated by Fe(0) in large-volume, flow-through columns to monitor the changes in chemical and hydraulic parameters over time. Tracer tests showed a close relationship between hydraulic residence time and pH measurements. The ionic profiles suggest that mineral precipitation and accumulation is the primary mechanism for pore clogging around the inlet of the column. Accumulated N(2) gas generated by biotic processes also affected the hydraulics although the effects were secondary to that of mineral precipitation. Quantitative estimates indicate a porosity reduction of up to 45.3% near the column inlet over 72 days of operation under accelerated flow conditions. According to this study, preferential flow through a PRB at a site with similar groundwater chemistry should be detected over approximately 1 year of operation. During the early operation of a PRB, pH is a key indicator for monitoring the change in hydraulic residence time resulting from heterogeneity development. If the surrounding native material is more conductive than the clogged Fe-media, groundwater bypass may render the PRB ineffective for treating contaminated groundwater.Journal of Contaminant Hydrology 11/2003; 66(3-4):161-78. · 2.70 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Rapid CO2 hydrate formation was investigated with the objective of producing a negatively buoyant CO2-seawater mixture under high-pressure and low-temperature conditions, simulating direct CO2 injection at intermediate ocean depths of 1.0-1.3 km. A coflow reactor was developed to maximize CO2 hydrate production by injecting water droplets (e.g., approximately 267 microm average diameter) from a capillary tube into liquid CO2. The droplets were injected in the mixing zone of the reactor where CO2 hydrate formed at the surface of the water droplets. The water-encased hydrate particles aggregated in the liquid CO2, producing a paste-like composite containing CO2 hydrate, liquid CO2, and water phases. This composite was extruded into ambient water from the coflow reactor as a coherent cylindrical mass, approximately 6 mm in diameter, which broke into pieces 5-10 cm long. Both modeling and experiments demonstrated that conversion from liquid CO2 to CO2 hydrate increased with water flow rate, ambient pressure, and residence time and decreased with CO2 flow rate. Increased mixing intensity, as expressed by the Reynolds number, enhanced the mass transfer and increased the conversion of liquid CO2 into CO2 hydrate. Using a plume model, we show that hydrate composite particles (for a CO2 loading of 1000 kg/s and 0.25 hydrate conversion) will dissolve and sink through a total depth of 350 m. This suggests significantly better CO2 dispersal and potentially reduced environmental impacts than would be possible by simply discharging positively buoyant liquid CO2 droplets. Further studies are needed to address hydrate conversion efficiency, scale-up criteria, sequestration longevity, and impact on the ocean biota before in-situ production of sinking CO2 hydrate composite can be applied to oceanic CO2 storage and sequestration.Environmental Science and Technology 09/2003; 37(16):3701-8. · 5.48 Impact Factor - Environmental Science and Technology 08/2003; 37(16):3701-3708. · 5.48 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: The effects of sediment surfaces on methane hydrate formation and dissociation were investigated using colloidal suspensions and new experimental methods developed for a large volume (72 liters), temperature-controlled pressure vessel. Hydrates were formed by bubbling methane gas through test solutions at temperatures and pressures within the hydrate stability field. Hydrate formation was visually detected by the accumulation of hydrate-encrusted gas bubbles. To measure hydrate dissociation conditions, the pressure vessel was warmed while temperature was monitored within a zone of previously formed hydrate-encrusted gas bubbles. Hydrate dissociation was indicated by a distinct plateau in the hydrate zone temperature, while temperatures of the gas and liquid phases within the vessel continued to rise. The 'dissociation plateau' appears to be a phenomenon that is unique to the large volume of the pressure vessel used for the experiments. In experiments where hydrates were formed in pure water, temperature and corresponding pressure conditions measured during the temperature plateau matched model-predicted values for hydrate stability in water, thus confirming the validity of this new method for measuring hydrate dissociation conditions. Formation and dissociation conditions were measured for methane hydrates in colloidal suspensions containing bentonite. Hydrate formation experiments indicated that the presence of bentonite in water at 200 mg/l significantly decreased pressures required for hydrate formation relative to formation in pure water alone. On the other hand, hydrate dissociation conditions measured in bentonite and silica suspensions with solids concentrations of 34 g/l did not differ significantly from that of water. These results are relevant to the origin and stability of natural gas hydrate deposits known to exist in deep permafrost and marine sediments, where the effects of sediment surfaces are largely unknown.Marine Geology 01/2003; · 2.20 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This report describes the application of palladized iron (Pd/Fe) to the dechlorination of polychlorinted biphenyls (PCBs) at ambient temperature. Experiments supported by congener-specific analyses demonstrated that dechlorination occurs in a step-wise fashion with the meta-chlorines being more reactive than ortho-chlorines. Over the course of the laboratory experiments, complete conversion to biphenyl was observed. The process was also tested with PCBs dissolved in high (40-60%) concentrations of ethanol and isopropanol as a means of simulating solutions generated by commercial soil and solid waste extraction processes. The reaction rate was sensitive to the percentage of solvent but complete dechlorination was still indicated. Tests with soil extracts from a contaminated site demonstrated that there were no apparent interferences from asphalt and other miscellaneous debris. Short-duration tests with highly contaminated PCB solutions from a hazardous waste site demonstrated efficient dechlorination although there was a reduction in reaction rate with time.Waste Management 02/2002; 22(3):343-9. · 3.16 Impact Factor -

ABSTRACT: A seafloor process simulator (SPS) has been developed for experimental investigations of the physical, geochemical, and microbiological processes affecting the formation and stability of methane and carbon dioxide hydrates at temperatures and pressures corresponding to ocean depths of 2 km. The SPS is a corrosion-resistant pressure vessel whose salient characteristics are: (i) an operating range suitable for study of methane and carbon dioxide hydrates; (ii) numerous access and observation ports, and (iii) a large (0.0722 m3) internal volume. Initial experiments have shown that the SPS can be used to produce large amounts of high-purity methane hydrate over a wide range of experimental conditions.The Review of scientific instruments 01/2001; 72:1514-1521. · 1.58 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The current status, applications, and future developments of vadose-zone characterization and monitoring technologies are described using case-study data from practicing scientists and engineers. The basic principles, advantages, and limitations of existing vadose-zone characterization and monitoring methods are considered, and evidence is presented that the central problem of the vadose-zone investigation is the preferential fast-flow phenomenon and accelerated deep-contaminant transport toward groundwater. Included are water flow and chemical transport processes in deep and shallow vadose zones, field vadose-zone characterization and monitoring, and determination of unsaturated hydraulic properties of variably saturated soils and rocks. A number of case studies are appended that illustrate the concepts and technologies addressed in the chapter.01/2000: pages 949-1156; Battelle Press. - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Subsurface contamination by organic chemicals is a widespread and serious problem at industrial, government, and military sites. IN SITU chemical oxidation wherein strong oxidants are introduced into the subsurface, has emerged as a promising IN SITU remediation method for several reasons. Chlorinated solvents, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, and other organics can be resistant to IN SITU biodegradation or may take exceedingly long periods of time in many subsurface settings. However, these organics are amenable to rapid and complete destruction by chemical oxidation and/or to partial chemical degradation as an aid to subsequent biodegradation. Also, IN SITU chemical oxidation can be implemented with relatively simple, readily available equipment and the rate and extent of treatment can enable rapid cleanup and support industrial property transfers and Brownfields redevelopment. During the past ten years, the state-of-knowledge and standard-of-practice concerning IN SITU chemical oxidation has continued to advance. This paper describes the fundamentals of chemical oxidation and its emergence as an IN SITU remediation technology. Reaction processes and delivery systems are highlighted for three common oxidant systems including hydrogen peroxide (Fenton's reagent), permanganate, and ozone. Results of research are outlined along with observations from field applications across the U.S. Field experiences have demonstrated that the successful application of IN SITU chemical oxidation requires consideration of several factors through an integrated evaluation and design practice. It is clear that matching the oxidant and IN SITU delivery system to the contaminants of concern and the site conditions is the key to successful implementation and achieving performance goals.Proceedings of the Water Environment Federation. 12/1999; - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In July 1996, the US Department of Energy (DOE) Kansas City Plant (KCP), AlliedSignal Federal Manufacturing and Technologies, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), conducted field-scale tests of in situ soil mixing and treatment technologies within the Northeast Area (NEA) of the KCP at the Former Ponds site. This demonstration, testing, and evaluation effort was conducted as part of the implementation of a deep soil mixing (DSM) innovative remedial technology demonstration project designed to test DSM in the low-permeability clay soils at the KCP. The clay soils and groundwater beneath this area are contaminated by volatile organic compounds (VOCs), primarily trichloroethene (TCE) and 1,2-dichloroethene (1,2-DCE). The demonstration project was originally designed to evaluate TCE and 1,2-DCE removal efficiency using soil mixing coupled with vapor stripping. Treatability study results, however, indicated that mixed region vapor stripping (MRVS) coupled with calcium oxide (dry lime powder) injection would improve TCE and 1,2-DCE removal efficiency in saturated soils. The scope of the KCP DSM demonstration evolved to implement DSM with the following in situ treatment methodologies for contaminant source reduction in soil and groundwater: DSM/MRVS coupled with calcium oxide injection; DSM/bioaugmentation; and DSM/chemical oxidation using potassium permanganate. Laboratory treatability studies were started in 1995 following collection of undisturbed soil cores from the KCP. These studies were conducted at ORNL, and the results provided information on optimum reagent concentrations and mixing ratios for the three in situ treatment agents to be implemented in the field demonstration.10/1998; -
Conference Paper: A field-scale test of in situ chemical oxidation through recirculation
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In situ chemical oxidation is a developing class of remediation technologies in which organic contaminants are degraded in place by powerful oxidants. Successful implementation of this technology requires an effective means for dispersing the oxidant to contaminated regions in the subsurface. An oxidant delivery technique has been developed wherein the treatment solution is made by adding an oxidant to extracted groundwater. The oxidant-laden groundwater is then injected and recirculated into a contaminated aquifer through multiple horizontal and/or vertical wells. This technique, referred to as in situ chemical oxidation through recirculation (ISCOR), can be applied to saturated and hydraulically conductive formations and used with relatively stable oxidants such as potassium permanganate (KMnO{sub 4}). A field-scale test of ISCOR was conducted at a site (Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant) where groundwater in a 5-ft thick silty gravel aquifer is contaminated with trichloroethylene (TCE) at levels that indicate the presence of residual dense non-aqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs). The field test was implemented using a pair of parallel horizontal wells with 200-ft screened sections. For approximately one month, groundwater was extracted from one horizontal well, dosed with crystalline KMnO{sub 4}, and re-injected into the other horizontal well 90 ft away. Post-treatment characterization showed that ISCOR was effective at removing TCE in the saturated region. Lateral and vertical heterogeneities within the treatment zone impacted the uniform delivery of the oxidant solution. However, TCE was not detected in groundwater samples collected from monitoring wells and soil samples from borings in locations where the oxidant had permeated.08/1998 - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The dehalogenation of chlorinated solvents by zero-valence iron has recently become the subject of intensive research and development as a potentially cost-effective, passive treatment for contaminated groundwater through reactive barriers. Because of its successful application in the laboratory and other field sites, the X-625 Groundwater Treatment Facility (GTF) was constructed to evaluate reactive barrier technology for remediating trichloroethylene (TCE)-contaminated groundwater at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant (PORTS). The X-625 GTF was built to fulfill the following technical objectives: (1) to test reactive barrier materials (e.g., iron filings) under realistic groundwater conditions for long term applications, (2) to obtain rates at which TCE degrades and to determine by-products for the reactive barrier materials tested, and (3) to clean up the TCE-contaminated water in the X-120 plume. The X-625 is providing important field-scale and long-term for the evaluation and design of reactive barriers at PORTS. The X-625 GTS is a unique facility not only because it is where site remediation is being performed, but it is also where research scientists and process engineers can test other promising reactive barrier materials. In addition, the data collected from X-625 GTF can be used to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of replacing the activated carbon units in the pump-and-treat facilities at PORTS.08/1997; - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Researchers at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have been investigating the use of in situ chemical oxidation to remediate organic contaminants (VOCs, SVOCs, and PCBs) in soils and groundwater at the laboratory and field scales. Field scale design parameters (e.g., oxidant loading rates and oxidant delivery techniques) are often dictated by site conditions (e.g., soil properties and initial contaminant concentrations). Chemical destruction of organic compounds can be accomplished using a variety of oxidants. Recent research has involved field scale in situ chemical oxidation demonstrations using H{sub 2}O{sub 2} and KMnO{sub 4} in conjunction with soil mixing as the oxidant delivery mechanism. A description of some of these fields activities and future field-scale work is presented here.03/1997

Employers, finding obesity weighs on bottom lines, helps employees make healthy choices
Healthiest Employers
- Chris Mahoney
- Associate Editor- Boston Business Journal
As part of long-term effort to address obesity and the health problems that come along with it, MetroWest Medical Center (MWMC) sponsored a 12-week program for employees on topics such as healthy eating and a team-based walking challenge, In all, 52 employees lost more than 500 pounds over the during the three months, said Diane Barnaby, health and wellness coordinator at MWMC, which employs 2,400 people in four locations.
There is little doubt that obesity is a costly problem for the U.S. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently put the price tag of direct medical costs alone at $147 billion annually. And a Duke University study suggested businesses absorb $73 billion in direct and indirect costs of obesity annually, including absenteeism and lost productivity.
In fact, an obese employee takes 13 more sick days a year than a comparable healthy-weight worker, said Kristie Howard, vice president at Longfellow Benefits in Boston, and is twice as likely to file workers' compensation claims.
"Obesity is definitely an issue businesses are looking at very closely. There are a lot of reasons for that, including bottom-line reasons," Howard said.
Howard's firm recommends obesity-focused wellness programs focus on lifestyle changes rather than rapid weight loss.
"Biggest Loser-style challenges are a lot of fun, but slower weight loss is healthier and more likely to be long-lasting," she said. "The most effective thing a company can do is to build that culture of health and give employees the tools to make positive choices."
Many businesses have The workplace is an important part of the obesity solution not only because employees spend much of their time there, but also because of the power of social networks, said Tom Abshire, senior vice president of marketing and marketing engagement for Virgin HealthMiles. Having obese friends makes someone more than twice as likely to be obese themselves, he noted.

Some killing, but most violence is PG-13.
The thunderous climax -one of the muddiest, bloodiest and most chaotic gunfights of the 2000s -makes it clear that Kevin Costner's plaintive, patient, slightly overlong Western was only sitting for a spell to race toward the finish.
Range is handed a stunning period scope by Costner's directorial eye, while forming an unexpectedly tender core to help endear these character past their grizzled exterior.
An unbelievable old-fashioned western...
Thoroughly enjoyable and involving, Kevin Costner's Open Range is a beautifully made western about flawed heroes who believe in redemption, loyalty and respect.
Something like...It's a Wonderful Life, only rich in slaughter.
Costner finds in the Western something grand, familiar and new within a genre that clearly has some life in it yet.
While equally paying homage to directors Peckinpah, Eastwood, and Kurosawa, what makes Open Range special is that it's a love story, too. And one peopled by endearing characters we're inclined to care about when the bloodletting has finally ended.
Handsomely mounted, as you would expect, Open Range has a good deal to commend it.
By the end, I was thinking this is probably one of the best westerns made since Kevin Costner first hopped on a horse in "Silverado."
Good for Costner: at the close of a summer cluttered with dumb action films, sequels and remakes, he's bucked the trend and put himself back in the saddle again.
Open Range est tout simplement un bon vieux western qui fait plaisir � voir.
... even though Costner's sense of a satisfying ending is a bit too ordinary and unimaginative, I found Open Range refreshing.
... needs a better story, better characters, better source material; and fewer aphorisms, fewer long glances and sweeping scores, fewer chunks of cheese.
Just about everything in this movie has its antecedent: a little bit of Shane here, a chunk of High Noon there, and so on. And yet it's all rather pleasing, in a regressive sort of way.
It's a considerable improvement over his last directing effort, the post-apocalyptic disaster The Postman.
This one is for the Western fans who have been clamoring for classic tales of guns, revenge and a little hokey romance without an ensemble cast or gimmick to keep it afloat.
This is a truly outstanding film, with great performances, particularly from Duvall.
Does Costner think that none of us have ever seen a Western before?The film does have one hell of a good shootout at the end, But Lord, does he make you wait for it.
El film, hermosamente fotografiado por James Muro, es como un ejemplar perdido de una especie en extinci�n. Tambi�n lo es, en cierta manera, su coprotagonista Robert Duvall.
Audience Reviews for Open Range
Super Reviewer
You can't beat a good Western and Open Range is a good Western. It has all that a modern Western has over the old westerns but with the heart of a classic western. The performances are strong, the direction is sound, the attention to detail is perfect and it's pretty light on cliches. Best of all though, it has a great script, the relationships are both believable and honest, the supporting characters aren't all drunk gun-slingers either which is nice, it was also nice to see a confrontation in a busy cafe rather than a rough saloon. Costner gets the pace of the story just right, he develops his characters and in turn builds the conclusion of the film with just the right level of intensity and intrigue so that the climax does not disappoint.
MoreSuper Reviewer
As a Western character study you couldn't do much better, the give and take between Duvall and Costner, the old man and the kid (10 years on), the glue holding the piece, with Bening doing very well as a strong frontier woman. And Gambon is a surprise as the ruthless cattle baron. Well worth your time.

Final shootout scene? One of the greatest western action set-pieces of all time. Watch for that scene and that scene alone.

Duchess of Cambridge to attend BBC's Sports Personality award show
The Duchess of Cambridge will attend the BBC's Sports Personality award show tonight in her first public engagement since leaving hospital for severe pregnancy sickness, St James' Palace said.
She will present the main award and lifetime achievement honour when Britain's top sports stars gather to celebrate a year of sporting achievement hailed as the nation's greatest ever.
The Duchess has not been seen in public since leaving the King Edward VII's Hospital in London on December 6.
She had received three days of treatment for a condition known as hyperemesis gravidarum, which leaves expectant mothers so ill they cannot keep food or liquids down.
Kate will attend tonight's show in her role as an official ambassador of Britain's Olympic and Paralympic team, St James' Palace said.
A spokesman said: "The Duchess of Cambridge will tonight attend the BBC's Sports Personality of the Year awards at the ExCeL London, where Her Royal Highness will present the lifetime achievement and the main sports personality of the year awards.
"The Duchess will attend the event in response to a long-standing invitation from the BBC."
Kate, who is less than 13 weeks pregnant, was ordered by doctors to have a period of rest at her home at Kensington Palace after leaving hospital.
She was recently forced to miss two royal engagements - a Centrepoint Royal Albert Hall fundraiser and the British Military Tournament.
The Duke of Cambridge will not attend the event at London's ExCel centre as he remains in Anglesey in his role as an RAF search and rescue helicopter pilot, a St James' Palace spokesman said.
Olympic and Paralympic heroes dominate this year's Sports Personality shortlist, with golfer Rory McIlroy the only one of the 12 nominees not to have won medals at London 2012 this summer.
Cyclist Bradley Wiggins is the bookmakers' odds-on favourite after his historic triumph in the Tour de France and gold in the Olympics time trial, followed by heptathlon champion Jessica Ennis.
The Duchess' public diary is likely to be tailored to how she is coping with her condition, which causes prolonged bouts of vomiting triggered by smells and even movement.
She looked well and even smiled briefly as she posed with the Duke for the world's media after leaving hospital.
When a member of the press asked how she was feeling, the Duchess, wrapped up against the cold in a coat and scarf and carrying a bouquet of yellow flowers, replied: "Much better."
The Duchess is not expected to attend the entire event but will arrive in time for the presentations.
Reports had suggested she could miss Christmas at Sandringham and instead choose to spend the festive period with her own family in a bid to recover.
Kate's prolonged vomiting could continue for much of her pregnancy and she may need to take anti-sickness medication for months to come.
She was regularly visited by William and younger siblings Pippa and James Middleton during her stay in hospital.

President-elect Barack Obama is so popular that some whites now claim him as one of their own.
Following a recent column on race and the historic election, e-mail writer Michele got ticked off at me for leaving out something she thought was important.
She wrote, "As long as you have made your column about race, I need to point out, as no one seems to be doing, that Barack Obama is also HALF WHITE. Why is this fact not being addressed ... or being disregarded is more like it?"
Who can argue with that logic … or make up this stuff?

Earlier this month, some UberX drivers in Calfornia found themselves between a rock and a hard place: The state started requiring ridesharing service drivers to register their cars as commercial vehicles, but Uber in turn suspended some drivers who did just that.
However, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, California's Department of Motor Vehicles has since reneged on its earlier policy decision, and has dropped the commercial registration requirement. According to the report, DMV officials "will meet with regulators and the industry to work through the issue," presumably to develop a policy that all sides can agree to.

Let's go back in time seven years. That was when the Macalope first wrote this:
It's amazing how future Microsoft products beat current Apple products time and time again, isn't it? You'd think Apple would have just given up by now.
That was in response to contentions that Windows Mobile 7 (which later shipped as Windows Phone) would crush the iPhone. Not that that context has anything to do with what we're about to talk about. Cough.
Now, back to the present where Microsoft shows us the future. Again. It looks kinda cool. It's not, technically speaking, holograms as it was described, oh, 10,000 times in Wednesday's presentation, but what else are you gonna call them?

Apple posted a new video to its YouTube channel offering a behind-the-scenes look at artist Wang Dongling. He created the art used for the opening of Apple's newest Apple Store in China, known as West Lake. "To celebrate the opening of our first store in Hangzhou, we partnered with artist Wang Dongling," Apple said in the video's description. "Get a behind-the-scenes look at his process and the artwork he created for Apple Store, West Lake." The video includes comments from Mr. Wang, as well as shots of him creating the art. Check it out.
There has been a lot of talk lately about watches and watchbands now that we know Apple is headed into that market. Even before Apple launches it's offering, Leatherman has already conquered the watchband with the Leatherman Tread. And if you still aren't convinced you need to wear a watch, that's ok. First and foremost this is a bracelet, and if you want to include a watch, you can. Each link is an individual tool such as a hex drive, screwdriver, box wrench, and of course, the bottle opener (built into the clasp). It starts shipping this summer, with the timepiece coming in the fall. Since the links are user adjustable, it's possible to pop off the cutting hook and hopefully you can now, at long last, get through TSA with a Leatherman.
Yesterday I wrote up the Mountie, a device that clips your smaller mobile display to the side of your "main" display, either a MacBook Pro or an iMac. It turns out this idea is a long time coming. Our own Adam Christianson had a conversation in 2004 about the (then) current Apple Studio Display and how so much space was used in programs like Photoshop by palettes and other panels that took up a lot of space. Adam was pondering a smaller screen that could work in conjunction with the main display, maximizing the space available for work on the larger screen. He talked this over with Jeff Rutan who then created a concept of what this "Palette Pad" might look like. At the time things like power and attaching to displays and video sync were tough nuts to crack, so the concept sort of died until 2010 with the release of Air Display which brought it closer. Now that the Mountie exists, teaming it up with Air Display might actually make Adam's vision a reality.
