Late in life, William F. Buckley made a confession. Capitalism is "boring," he told me. "Devoting your life to it," as conservatives do, "is horrifying if only because it's so repetitious. It's like sex." Since that conversation ten years ago, I've been asking what is conservatism and what's at stake for its proponents. This book is my answer.
From the French Revolution to the Tea Party, conservatism has been a reactionary movement, a defense of power and privilege against democratic challenges from below, particularly in the private spheres of the family and the workplace.
Available in paperback for only $13! Order now on Amazon.
"I confess to being one of those who likes to divide conservatives into their parts as opposed to treating them as a whole. Robin makes a vigorous case that I am wrong, and I am tempted by his analysis….Robin is an engaging writer, and just the kind of broad-ranging public intellectual all too often missing in academic political science."
—The New Republic
"And I think that the best model [of conservatism] is, as I said the other day, the Corey Robin notion that it's about preserving hierarchy."
—Paul Krugman, New York Times
"A very readable romp through the evils of Conservatism."
—The Guardian/Observer
"'The Reactionary Mind' certainly cuts hard against the common view that the radical populist conservatism epitomized by Sarah Palin represents a sharp break with the cautious, reasonable, moderate, pragmatic conservatism inaugurated by the 18th-century British statesman Edmund Burke….This counterrevolutionary spirit, Mr. Robin argues, animates every conservative, from the Southern slaveholders to Ayn Rand to Antonin Scalia, to name just a few of the figures he pulls into his often slashing analysis."
—New York Times
"…ground-breaking book…"
—Rolling Stone
"If conservatives have been the 'left's best students,' Robin teaches the Left to become better students of the Right."
"This little book will continue to spark controversy, but that is not the reason to read it: it is a witty, erudite and opinionated account of one of the most significant movements of our times."
—Times Higher Education
"'The Reactionary Mind' demands to be taken seriously by conservatives, and it helps that it's written with panache. The series of scholarly strikes Robin makes against conventional wisdom are often exhilarating."
—The Daily
"Robin, a New York-based political scientist and regular contributor to publications like The Nation and the London Review of Books, has written an original book with an armful of theses that shed revealing light on the whys and wherefores of right-wing politics in the United States and beyond."
—The National
"Stemming from a conversation he had with the late William F. Buckley, Robin's book provides clear, well-documented insight on how the right came to be what it now is."
—Washington Times
"I feel sure that if trapped on a desert island with the man, I should soon commit suicide."
—The American Conservative
"We asked our editors what they've been reading lately, and almost all of us have been reading for Occupy Wall Street. We recommend Corey Robin's Reactionary Mind, the first edition of Our Bodies, Ourselves, and Keynes's General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money."
"Corey Robin's extraordinary collection, constantly fresh, continuously sharp, and always clear and eloquent, provides the only satisfactory philosophically coherent account of elite conservatism I have ever read. It's all great, a model in the exercise of humane letters."
—Rick Perlstein, author of Nixonland
"This book is a fascinating exploration of a central idea: that conservatism is, at its heart, a reaction against democratic challenges, in public and private life, to hierarchies of power and status. Corey Robin leads us through a series of case studies over the last few centuries, showing the power of this idea by illuminating conservatives both sublime and ridiculous."
—Kwame Anthony Appiah, Princeton University
"Beautifully written, these essays deepen our understanding of why conservatism remains a powerful force in American politics."
—Joyce Appleby, UCLA and past president of the American Historical Association
"A wonderfully good read. It combines up-to-the-minute relevance with an eye to the intellectual history of conservatism in all its protean forms. Some readers will enjoy Corey Robin's dismantling of Barry Goldwater, Antonin Scalia, and Irving Kristol; others will enjoy his demolition of Ayn Rand. Some will be uncomfortable when they discover that those who too lightly endorse state violence, and even torture, include some of their friends. That is one of the things that makes this such a good book."
—Alan Ryan, Oxford University

As my other reviews of Bobbi's glosses indicate, I'm a PPP with pale lips. This looks like a beautiful soft mauve cream on my lips. Very, very nice. Its a slightly warm mauve, not grey toned as the name mauve might imply. Just lovely.

I bought this on impulse from bobbibrown.com. It sounded nice(for a nude look), but alas it is too boring on me. It looks like a brown gloss(as the name suggests). There is NO pink in this to balance it out. I will not repurchase. NC37-42

I bought this gloss while searching for my HG MLBB lipcolor. Well, I didnt find it in this color. It is much too "Blah" for me. It does nothing for my complexion. It is a light beige/brown with a tiny bit of pink. For reference I am Stila 60 watts/NC 42 with dark brown hair and eyes.

This is a beutiful color on me. Im hispanic with light brown/tan skin. Its more pink than brown and alone looks way too pink on me but with a good lip liner its awsome. The price is kinda high, its only 0.14 oz for $18. It smells like play-dooh, eeww, but I can look past this smells, I can hardly smell it when its on. The applicator sucks. The applicator is a brush not like the MAC sponge type. I hate the applicator its impossible to get enough product with that very thin brush. I will probably repurchase the color is very nice, hopefully I can find a deal on ebay!

This is not a brown lipgloss. It is called that because this is Bobbi Brown's favorite lipstick and lipgloss color and is one of her staples. Wow, this is a really pretty color. It is a pinky brown with hints of coral. It is pinker than Prestige Varnish yet more coral than Chanel Giggle. It is definitely a great lipgloss that you can wear day or night if paired with smokey eyes.

The best gloss colour ever. Seriously! If you can get past the annoying packaging, then you'll fall in love with this dusky pink shade (why on earth is it called Brown?). It's a YLBB colour that would suit many and I cannot recommend this shade enough (it's probably my HG).

This is a nice pinky brown shade, nothing spectacular but nice nonetheless... The brush sucks as usual, and the size is tiny! It looks about the same size as a Chanel glossimer sample. This gloss is sticky though but probably not as sticky as MAC. I'm fast becoming a YLBB pinky brown gloss queen so I don't think I'd repurchase this because I have many that look similar and I like less sticky alternatives.

Bobbi Brown Lip Glosses are my favourites and this is the perfect example why! Not too sticky, but sticky enough to last a bit. Perfect colour that's natural. I love this so much and this is definitely an everyday staple.

One of the key requirements for the brand new RoadtoVR website was to have a dedicated area for fans of VR to come and share thoughts, ideas and (where appropriate) hurl well reasoned abuse at one another.
The system is based on BBPress with BuddyPress extensions – which means you can add friends, send PMs and even post your feelings in public (should the urge take you). Feel free to also upload your own custom Avatar (keep it clean please, or at the very least legal). We'll add some brief pointers / tutorials in this thread at a later date, but anyone who's used an online Forum before should be fairly comfortable.
Finally, we're still working on polishing the Forum and it's functionality and have plans for sub-forums in the very near future. In the mean time, enjoy and if you find anything br0ked report to the contacts in our about page.

Sony introduces fastest ever with the XQD™ S series Memory Cards
New memory cards can achieve fastest transfer speeds of up to 168 MB/s[1] to Deliver Outstanding Picture Quality
Sydney, 5 July 2012 –The launch of the new XQD S Series Memory Cards (QD-S32/S64), place Sony at the forefront of memory cards with ultra-fast read and write speeds.
The new S Series cards are able to process at speeds of up to 168 MB/s, making it the fastest in the market[2]. This means that no matter how fast the action, the new XQD S series can record up to 1081,[3]frames in RAW format on continuous shooting mode, ensuring that photographers never miss a moment. Photographers can now shoot a 100m sprint from start to finish in a single, sustained burst of RAW images at a shooting speed of 10 frames per second.
Surpassing the theoretical maximum speed of existing CompactFlash devices, the industry leading XQD S Series reduces transfer times by 30 per cent1 when compared with the fastest CF cards. This makes the S Series perfect for photo enthusiasts and professional sports photographers who demand quick and easy photo data back-up.
The card's high capacity of 64GB makes XQD S Series ideal for storing large volumes of data-heavy RAW files, perfect for sports photographers who may be triggering the camera's shutter remotely and cannot conveniently change media cards. A new device driver for Thunderbolt compatible devices will be available for download from August 2012 and will allow users to transfer files to their Macintosh computer systems at even quicker speeds, when used with a compatible card reader.

This is the closest course to my house besides Heritage. Love playing here. Two aces on this course. Slightly wooded. Mostly decent 300 ft holes. A banana spider web here was so thick it ripped the glasses off of my head one time. Ballsy. But **** um, Gordy rules for tough shots. Would love to see Lacastro come here and try THIS Florida thickness.

A successful result may not be limited to water conservation.
"The end product is hopefully an irrigation tool that will help water use efficiency — and produce better quality produce," Frame said.
There is the possibility overall water use will not be reduced, he said.
"Growers might actually increase tonnage," Frame said. "Even utilizing water use efficiency tools could increase water use, but on a per tonnage basis, it would be less."
If all the pieces of the puzzle come together, the project will be able to project crop specific ET rates on plots of land as small as 100 feet by 100 feet, less than one-quarter of an acre.
"In practice, the information will be most useful for farms of five acres in size or larger," Melton said.
With the exception of some wine vineyards, nearly all California farms are a minimum of 20 acres.
A limited pilot project is under way this year. A more aggressive project is planned for 2011 and will focus on the San Joaquin Valley.
"We're currently working with Western Growers, the USDA, and partner-growers to identify specific locations for deployment of wireless sensor networks designed to support evaluation of satellite-based estimates for different crop types," Melton said. "The crop coefficient and ET maps for the San Joaquin Valley region will be available for all growers to review and evaluate."
Key to the project's success will be the participation of some non-coalition members, Salas said.
"If growers actively participate, they can actually see the advantages of the technology," she said. "Their involvement will be critical."
Mapping of crop coefficients and estimation of crop ET can be done directly from satellite information in combination with ET estimates from CIMIS, Melton said.
"However, grower participation is critical to evaluating these estimates," he said.
Where the growers enter the picture is when scientists and the computer program attempt to translate estimates of crop ET into irrigation system run times, Melton said. That requires additional input from growers.
"We also believe that working closely with growers is the best approach for transitioning this work from a successful research effort to a system that provides useful information to growers, and that can assist growers in getting the most value out of the water they have available," he said.

Subversive Thanksgiving
"When you are grateful, fear disappears and abundance appears." - Anthony Robbins
Although you would hardly know it judging by all the Christmas decorations that go up the day after Halloween, there is another holiday to celebrate first. And it may be more important than we realize, especially in difficult times. As humans, we need to give thanks. Even those with no religion to speak of, who believe there is no God to whom they can direct their thanks, have an inherent need for gratitude.
Recently, the leader of a book study group in which I was participating gave us a homework assignment. Every day, he told us, we were to write down five things for which we were thankful. He called this "a subversive act." At first, I was unsure of his meaning. To subvert is to undermine or attempt to overthrow an established system. How could writing down a list of "thank you"s do that? It was only as I completed the assignment that I began to understand. Some days, it was easy to write down my gratitude for a beautiful sunrise, a phone call from a best friend, a good night at work, a walk on the beach, a long nap. But there were also the days when I found out that my car needed several hundred dollars worth of repairs, or when I was in bed with a miserable cough that wouldn't even let me sleep, or when a patient I had been praying for died. On those days, the easiest thing to do was see all the things I was not thankful for, all the bad stuff I wish wasn't a part of life. Our society has practically made a cottage industry out of bitter complaining and finger-pointing when things don't go as we would want them to go. And lately, there is plenty to be unhappy about, the trivial things and the very serious, legitimate things. It makes sense to complain about them. That is the status quo.
That is why giving thanks is a subversive act. I found that, even on the days when car troubles, illness, or tragedy intruded upon my life, I could still find five things for which I was grateful. Writing them down, savoring the realness and goodness of them, felt like laughing in the face of the unfair world, refusing to be pulled under by bitterness. It did not change my circumstances, but gratitude definitely changed how I dealt with them. And most days, as I started writing my five things, they would remind me of other things, and my list grew. My eyes were opened to how much I truly did have.
As we sit around tables laden with turkey and dressing and pumpkin pie surrounded by loved ones on Thanksgiving, every one of us has a lot of reasons for gratitude. Before we dig in to all that food (and football), we should take a moment and begin to name them. It may take a lot longer than we think to say, "Thank you," for all the blessings God has poured out on us.
Dear God, we have so much to be thankful for! Thank you for the people we love, the roofs over our heads, the clothes on our backs, the food on our tables, the beauty of the world around us, and so much more. You have blessed us abundantly, and for that, may we be truly grateful. Amen.
-- Chaplain Stacy N. Sergent

I just bought a house in Richmond, VA. Just called the gas company and was told the budget gas bill was $341 per month for a total of 1 occupant. The house is about 2900 sq ft. I thought it is high. The house has gas on heat, fireplace and water tank. The house I am currently living is about $80 per month on a monthly budget plan for 1500 sq ft for 3 occupants. This house has gas heat, gas stove, and gas water tank. Thought to check how much other homes typically paid for their gas heating bill. How much do you pay your gas heating bill in winter? |

Hi there. On the surface, your values appear to be high based on your size and location. To compare, I am in NJ, about 1/2 hour from Philly. Outdoor winter design temperature is 14*. I use gas for heating, hot water, and clothes dryer. House is 2500 SF, R-30 ceiling/r13 walls, Andersen windows/patio door. I collected data from March of '05 through February of '11, as follows: Average Cu Ft per month: 745 Average 'adjusted' Cu Ft per month (late spring through mid Sept. usage deducted from total Cu Ft: 624 (Hi 834; Lo 560) Average 12 month gas bill $1280 (Hi $1343; Lo $1216) Average Heating Degree Days: 4906 (Hi 5337; Lo 4354) My furnace was replaced (this is 4th htg season)from a 125,000 BTU builders' model to a Rheem Modulating furnace 90,000 BTU. Could have made due with a 75,000 BTU model, per my heat calc., but needed the larger blower for A/C. I keep telling my wife who complains about $$$ bills, but I keep reminding her that cost per Cu Ft is what determines the amount of the bill. Actual (average) number of therms per degree day with new furnace yielded about 20 - 25% saving. Comfort is worlds better. Best. V |
- Posted by david_cary (My Page) on Wed, Dec 26, 12 at 18:19
Holy crap that is a lot of gas. I am in a new house, 3 occupants, 5000 sqft and we are at about $300 in gas a season although we don't have gas hot water. I actually have a dual fuel unit but when I shut off the heatpumps it should be about $300 in gas. Mid Nov to Mid Dec this year was 15 therms or about $15 with heat pump off. Location - Raleigh NC - a little warmer than Richmond. |
I live in Minneapolis, 60 year old limestone home, 2 story, 3,600 sq/ft total, 2 1/2 heated garage, 60 year old hot water boiler. My gas bill for heat & hot water is about $200 a month. Your gas bill sounds crazy! |
- Posted by tigerdunes (My Page) on Fri, Dec 28, 12 at 11:05
First off, this OP and homeowner needs a leak test performed and a thorough evaluation of ductwork insulation and home's insulation properties. I would like to know the age, size, and efficiency of existing furnace. That would be my starting point. Keep us posted. IMO |
"The house has gas on heat, fireplace and water tank." My first thought is that you misunderstood what the gas company quoted. A bill $341 for a month in the winter is possible, but not every month for 12 months. The gas fireplace could consume of a lot of gas. Perhaps the original owner get it going 24/7. My suggestion is to get off the budget plan and pay the monthly usage. Budget plans are designed so that you are prepaying money to be used in the later months. You are effectively loaning money to the gas company. You should also have all the gas appliances inspected in the event they are defective and consuming a lot of gas. |
We live in a 6000 sqft home from 1885 with a lot of original windows. Steam radiators, gas hot water heater. Our winter bill runs about 700-800 bucks a month (thanks con-ed). Stop complaining. 8) |
Thank you for all of your responses which confirmed that the gas heat is much much high and there is room for improving effiency in the gas usage and gas bill. Unfortunately, the gas company quoted me $341 as a monthly budget plan which means the actual gas bill during winter is much higher. The house was built in 1997 which is about 15 years old. The furnace is quite new, less than a year old. I will have to check on the efficiency of the furnace. I bought from an estate and the temperature on my walk through was set at 75 degree which I have now reduced it to 68 to 71 degrees. In addition, I notice an air leak between the furnace and the flexible duct. My husband and I will be going to Home Depot to find out the correct tape/method to secure it tightly. I also notice the gas fireplace has the flame burning. I am new on gas fireplace and this is next on my list to check it. Once I do all I can, I would definitely get an expert to run a leak test. Please comments and give me ideas on other ways to improve gas energy effiency. Thanks. |
For calendar year 2011 I estimated my heating costs were $540 for the whole year. My house is located in central NJ. It is 3200 square, 27 years old with average insulation and windows. I keep the temperature 70-71 degrees during the day with a set back of 64 degrees at night, and 68 degrees on second floor for part of the day. I find it hard to believe you are burning all this gas. You may have a gas leak outside the house. Call the gas company and have them inspect the gas piping. The gas meter itself could be defective. Ask if you can get a new meter. See if they will give you copies of the last 12 months of gas bills. This may help in the investigation. |
- Posted by cindywhitall (My Page) on Sun, Dec 30, 12 at 15:23
To OP, definitely get off budget plan. The current/previous owner may either owe the gas co, or be due a credit.I assume they will settle up the bill when the house changes ownership from the to you. Was it an older person? Setting it at 75 sounds like an elderly person and they probably also ran it in the spring/fall much more than you would. I would get the system checked for safety, but not do much else until you see what the real gas usage will be once you live there. My house was built 1996, only 1 zone unlike Mike, who I think has 2 zones. My total gas for last year was about $1040 (may 2011 to april 2012--the year before was colder and was close to $1400). So, for a similar size house of the same age I spent $1040. That was with a 91% furnace (your new home probably has 80), adding back 10% (for 80% furnace-just a guess on the cost) brings it to $1180, which is about $100/month on a plan. Unless your furnace has a big problem I would guess the explanation is an older person who likes it really warm. (I am in NJ, I don't know how much more or less $ gas rates are where you are) My bills seem to be in line with veesubotee's, another poster from NJ. Keep stat at 68 or less during the day and 62-64 at bedtime. ALSO, they may have gotten behind on their bills. I know someone whose current elec bills are quite high due to a high past due balance being worked into the "payment plan" |
Hello all, Just wanted to share with all of you on the status of reducing gas bill. I just received my 2nd gas bill and so happy to report that the usage is 132 ccf in Feb 2013 with average temperate 39.9 degrees vs 286 ccf in Feb 2012 with average temp of 44.1 degree. The bill is $160.65. Not bad to cut at least half of ccf just by sealing off the floor registers. I am still looking for ways to reduce the heating bill, so please comments if you have other suggestions. I think the biggest issue are the air leaks on the duct connecting to the subfloor. Furnace: Temperature setting: Actions I have taken: |
Gobuilt, I am no expert here so take what I say with a grain of salt. My son has gas and he was using a ton of it .. in our state we have the option of having the utilities come out for a very small cost and do a audit on energy in the house ( i.e. blower door etc ) He found many, many leaks that he was not aware of ... had a crew come out repair the leaks ( got some rebates from the state ) and now he is happy cut his use in HALF. Good Luck! Good luck |
How old is the house? A leak check (blower door test) and some infrared imaging likely are called for to find the leaks and weak spots in the building envelope. |
- Posted by energy_rater_la (My Page) on Mon, Mar 4, 13 at 12:45
what brickeyee said x2 add to blower door test, duct testing. mastic & mastic tape...not foil or duct tapes makes a lot of difference. don't forget to seal return air along with ducts & supply box penetration into living space. I use hardcast brand 1402 mastic tape & recently I got rid propane for heating & best of luck. |

SALEM, Ore. (AP) - Nike wants to expand its Oregon operations but wants the government to promise it won't change the state tax code.
Gov. John Kitzhaber says he'll call the Legislature into session Friday to create a law to give Nike its wish.
The governor did not release information about the company's expansion plans. But a company fact sheet says the $440 million project would create 2,900 construction jobs with an economic impact of $2 billion a year. It says the expansion would create 12,000 jobs directly or indirectly but doesn't say how many would be Nike employees.
Nike Inc. has its headquarters in Beaverton, outside Portland. Company officials could not immediately be reached for comment.
Kitzhaber says Nike needed certainty before next month's regular legislative session. Other states are wooing it.

Manager Toolkit
The Manager Toolkit consolidates information for managers on HR procedures, transactions, and the PAC Toolkit.
PAC Toolkit
PAC is the acronym for People @ Columbia, which is the system that processes all Human Resources and Payroll transactions at Columbia University. It includes modules for Template-Based Hires, Labor Accounting (additional compensation payments, salary distributions and cost transfers, employee and position data, compensation, termination and reporting). The PAC Toolkit has everything you need to know about PAC system access, training, and support. Please contact the PAC Service Center if you can't find what you need here.
HR Manual
The HR Manual is designed to assist HR Managers and Departmental Administrators in the schools and departments who administer HR policies and processes. The manual focuses on core HR functions needed for those Columbia University personnel holding non-academic positions: Officers of Administration and Support Staff at all Columbia locations that are served by Columbia University Human Resources.
Information regarding HR management for academic positions - officers of instruction, officers of research, and student officers - can be found in the Faculty Handbook.
Transaction Information Guide
The Transaction Information Guide (TIG) is the home of tutorials for frequent transactions, developed based on your feedback and University policy.
We encourage you to let us know how we can make the Toolkit even more useful. You are also welcome to contact Human Resources if you have a question about policy or procedure.
HR Manager Forms
Access the HR manager forms you need as you work with faculty and staff at Columbia.

I had a friend laid up for a few weeks and then in different stages of knee braces for months following surgery to his ACL. He was jogging, and hopped over a barrel, and landed at a strange angle. It is easy to do, and a long painful process to rehab.

More Iowans are employed than ever before. State tax revenues are up and Iowa's financial services sector is prospering. Its construction industry is healthy and, perhaps most remarkably, Iowa has an expanding hospitality sector.
Much of the state's optimism is being fueled by an industry that hardly existed a decade ago. Renewable energy is no longer just the darling of granola crunching idealists. It has become the consort of steely-eyed capitalists.
Iowa is rapidly being re-shaped both physically and fiscally by renewable energy development. Wind generators have become a part of the Iowa landscape. Indeed ten Iowa schools utilize the generators for their own needs. The state is now the third largest source of wind energy in the country.
Iowa is also a leader in the development of soy-diesel fuel and lubricants. Ethanol plants are being launched so fast that their consumption of Iowa corn has moved market prices to record levels not seen before without a serious drought.
Historically much of Iowa has suffered lower prices compared to the eastern Corn Belt because of the distance to river terminals or processing plants. Ethanol plants have effectively shifted geography. Markets are now next door and that proximity is adding billions more to the state's economy. Iowa's agriculture, the state's most traditional, some might say staid, sector is positively energized by its emerging role as a player on the world energy stage. Already in the works, the next generation of ethanol plants will utilize another Iowa staple, renewable grasses rather than corn.
Here to now the combination of federal and state subsidies, high world oil prices and private capital has effectively grown Iowa's ethanol industry. The next generation of ethanol plants may require substantial research and development monies. With that in mind, the new Governor campaigned on the promise of what he called the "Iowa power fund," a $100-million energy development account.
Culver: We're going to create an Iowa power fund to invest in and attract cutting edge research and development. This will ensure we can lead the way not only in alternative fuels but in geothermal, biomass, wind, and solar energy. It's time for Iowa to become the first state in the nation to declare our independence from foreign oil.
The fund would be administered by a new executive office, the Governor's Director of Renewable Power. Part of the Culver vision is to convert the state's fleet to e85 fuel, an 85-percent ethanol blend, and to encourage stations to install e85 pumps.
However, new energy development, especially ethanol, may be at odds with another priority, water. Lawmakers are being encouraged to pass legislation that would assess the state's water resource, both its quality and quantity. Every gallon of ethanol produced requires the use of three gallons of water. And the increased demand for corn will likely complicate efforts to clean up Iowa's waterways.
Ethanol's byproduct, corn gluten, is typically fed to livestock, another threat to water quality. But the higher grain prices driven by ethanol demand may well curb livestock production, adding another issue to energy development.
Culver: We will protect the land, the lakes, the rivers, and the streams that we all love; however, with the right balance, we can harvest rewards beyond our wildest imagination.
Developing a significant energy sector may be within the state's grasp, but there will be a price.

At an early age Mister Saunders fell asleep roadside in a pickup truck on the way to visit the site of the Battle at Gettysburg in Pennsylvania. While asleep he experienced a calling from the ghost of Timothy O'Sullivan in a dream. Since then, Saunders has continued to roam the country making images and telling stories, some of which are even true. He continues to suffer from insomnia to this day and often the results can be read online. Mister Saunders' hobbies include seeking out awkward social situations, losing English sporting clay tournaments and reading things he shouldn't. His images sometimes appear in magazines like TIME, People and Forbes because he is occasionally paid to photograph strangers for money. Saunders would like nothing more then to photograph you, so send him an email, as he gets lonely.

From Green Right Now Reports
The Empire State Building is getting a $500 million energy efficiency retrofit that is expected to reduce the iconic skyscraper's energy consumption by up to 38 percent.
The project, already underway, is intended to become a model for analyzing and retrofitting existing structures for environmental sustainability. The makeover is a collaboration among a group of world-class environmental consulting, non-profit, design and construction partners, including Clinton Climate Initiative, Rocky Mountain Institute, Johnson Controls Inc. and Jones Lang LaSalle.
Building systems work is slated to be completed by the end of 2010, with final completion of tenant spaces by the end of 2013. Work that is scheduled to be completed within 18 months will result in more than 50 percent of the projected energy savings.
With an estimated project cost of $20 million, additional savings and redirection of expenditures originally planned in the building's upgrade program, and additional alternative spending in tenant installations, the Empire State Building is projected to save $4.4 million in annual energy costs, reduce its energy consumption by close to 40%, repay its net extra cost in about three years, and cut its overall carbon output.
At the project's conclusion, the Empire State Building is expected to gain GOLD certification for the government's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) for Existing Buildings.
Partners in the project are eager to create a replicable model for similar projects around the world by proving the viability of energy efficiency retrofit projects. Their goal is to dramatically increase building energy efficiency and reduce overall carbon output with "sensible payback periods and enhanced profitability."
"Commercial and residential buildings account for the majority of the total carbon footprint of cities around the world – over 70 percent in New York City," Anthony E. Malkin of building owner, Empire State Building Company, said in a statement. "Most new buildings are built with the environment in mind, but the real key to substantial progress is reducing existing building energy consumption and carbon footprint."
The project partners created a repeatable process to analyze the Empire State Building and establish a full understanding of its energy use, as well as its functional efficiencies and deficiencies. In reviewing more than 60 optional activities, the team identified eight economically viable projects, applicable to building-wide renovations, electrical and ventilation system upgrades and tenant space overhauls that would provide a significant return on investment, both environmentally and financially.
The eight projects were:
1. Window Light Retrofit: Refurbishment of approximately 6,500 thermopane glass windows, using existing glass and sashes to create triple-glazed insulated panels with new components that dramatically reduce both summer heat load and winter heat loss.
2. Radiator Insulation Retrofit: Added insulation behind radiators to reduce heat loss and more efficiently heat the building perimeter.
3. Tenant Lighting, Daylighting and Plug Upgrades: Introduction of improved lighting designs, daylighting controls, and plug load occupancy sensors in common areas and tenant spaces to reduce electricity costs and cooling loads.
4. Air Handler Replacements: Replacement of air handling units with variable frequency drive fans to allow increased energy efficiency in operation while improving comfort for individual tenants.
5. Chiller Plant Retrofit: Reuse of existing chiller shells while removing and replacing "guts" to improve chiller efficiency and controllability, including the introduction of variable frequency drives.
6. Whole-Building Control System Upgrade: Upgrade of existing building control system to optimize HVAC operation as well as provide more detailed sub-metering information.
7. Ventilation Control Upgrade: Introduction of demand control ventilation in occupied spaces to improve air quality and reduce energy required to condition outside air.
8. Tenant Energy Management Systems: Introduction of individualized, web-based power usage systems for each tenant to allow more efficient management of power usage.

Curious as to what spec you were using, or what would be the best spec to pull this off. I want to be able to in 5 mans, but still be viable in bg's and solo pve.

now find that all loot dropped inside instances will be of Superior
So they're saying that all loot in all instances (even places like rfc) will be blue?
Won't that be a lot of repeated drops in one instance run... in the case of every instance?
Better loot while leveling = awesome, but I really don't understand how they can pull this off. Unless they painted a bunch of greens blue.
typo maybe?

1.)Have the best gear you can get off the AH or any quests you can easily do. (ie: check wowhead).
2.)Go to Bg's.
3.)Have fun.
4.)Learn how to pvp and how to play in said bg's.
5.)You'll be fine.
6.)Have fun.

Instead of following the pack on this one, it would be good if the press did some old-fashioned explanatory journalism and laid out the implications of the tax holiday, both for now and in the future. A new United Technologies/National Journal Congressional Connection Poll shows that a majority of Americans support extending the payroll tax cut, despite concerns that extending the short-term reduction would increase the budget deficit. The support seems to be broad and bipartisan.
Even opponents of the tax holiday believe the cut will fly through Congress, since the
Democrats and Republicans, labor unions, and traditional supporters of Social Security think it's a good idea. The public, especially those nearing Social Security age, need to know exactly what may be in store for them. What happens, as Blahous says, when the link between the payroll tax and the right to contributions is severed? What right will the public have to their benefits? What happens if Social Security morphs into something like health or auto insurance that won't pay benefits if you stop paying the premiums? And then there's the larger question: Are Americans being asked to spend their future right now?

I am an artist and want to submit some of my ideas to The New Yorker.
Any suggestions? -

March 7th, 2009 at 1:58 pmI like the cartoon depicting mom & dad stretching the dollar over the baby. Could you update it into a four-way stretch between mom & dad, Obama, and the legislature, or IRS, or Taxes, or the financial/banking industries?
