The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Text of report by the website of government-owned Russian newspaper
Rossiyskaya Gazeta on 15 June
[Unattributed report: "The FSB warns"]
The State Duma has authorized the Russian Federal Security Service to
take "special preventive action" to avert crimes of an extremist nature.
The FSB will be permitted "to give an individual an official warning as
to the impermissibility of actions giving rise to the emergence of
factors and creating the conditions for the commission of crimes,
discovery and pretrial investigation in respect to which is referred by
legislation of the Russian Federation to the jurisdiction of arms of the
Federal Security Service". Meaning, naturally, actions that are not, for
the time being, in conflict with the Criminal Code. The people that
perpetrate them, the Duma's United Russia members believe, consider them
perfectly innocent and at times themselves do not understand what their
consequences could be. And there's nothing wrong, therefore, in someone
- the FSB in this case - explaining this to them in advance.
It was through the efforts of members of the United Russia faction that
the government bill that entrusts to the arms of the Federal Security
Service the new "educational" functions was given its first reading. The
True Russians and the Communists voted against this initiative. The
Liberal Democrats abstained, deciding that the powers of the FSB were
still not quite enough.
The United Russia members were entirely convinced by the arguments of
the originators of the bill testifying to the intensification in Russia
of the activity of radical organizations and the increase in negative
processes in society, primarily among the youth, and also by the
assurances of Yuriy Gorbunov, state secretary-deputy RF Federal Security
Service director, who, presenting the document to the deputies, said
that implementation of the bill would not result in an infringement of
the rights and liberties of the citizens. "The warning will operate at
the stage prior to the commission of the crime itself, it is not,
therefore, in the category of punitive or procedural measures or, as
some people maintain, measures of administrative penalty," Gorbunov
remarked. A person is simply invited to remove the causes and conditions
"contributing to materialization of threats to the security of the
Russian Federation," that is. And if he fails to accept the official w!
arning and submit to the legitimate demand and hinders the FSB officers'
performance of their official duties, he will be punished. The
punishment is, after all, for impeding the activity of police or
narcotics-control officers. Fines - for citizens ranging from R500 to
R1,000 - are suggested as the punishment. For officials, from R1,000 to
R3,000, for corporations, from R10,000 to R50,000. But for citizens the
bill provides for arrest for 15 days also. "This administrative
liability will be set exclusively through the courts. This proposal thus
envisages no abridgments of human rights or the news media," Gorbunov
But the Communists did not believe him. "We are profoundly convinced
that implementation of the submitted proposals will be attended by a
wholesale violation of the rights and liberties of Russian citizens,"
Viktor Ilyukhin deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee for
Constitutional Legislation and Structure of Governance, said. "We
believe that the FSB should have the right of preventive action and we
would be prepared to support the initiative, given its competent,
civilized legal execution," Gennadiy Gudkov explained the position of
his True Russia faction. Thus far, though, Gudkov believes, the draft
contains a multitude of reference provisions and vague wording, which
are grounds for "many people seeing in this law the threat of
psychological pressure, at least" and reason for us to be "criticized

<< Queen's Blade: The Exiled Virgin >> 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 |
A swamp monster appears as new allies are met, and new obstacles arise to complicate the victory in the tournament.
— Hulu
Nowa is a happy little half-elf with a monkey friend, helping the cute little birds, until an evil ghost maid with a large scythe nukes a whole swath of forest for no apparent reason.
Meanwhile, Reina washes ashore while Nanael appears to be having a wet dream whilst stuck under a large tree branch (SYMBOLISM!) nearby. Reina wakes her up anyway, and Nanael decides to call an official Queen's Blade match between the maid and the half-elf. The maid seems to have the power to regenerate her clothes, no matter how many times Nowa rips them off. So Airi responds by sticking the scythe between her legs and commenting that Nowa isn't wearing any panties. And then she proceeds to molest her--I mean, suck out her life force. Mouth-to-mouth. With a little fondling on the side.
Rather than sit back and watch, Reina decides to save Nowa, only to get molested/life-drained the same way. However, Reina doesn't just stand there and take it. Instead, she fights back and then for some unknown reason Airi's clothes begin to disappear, followed shortly by the rest of her body. Nowa thanks her by tending to her wounds.
Meanwhile, Reina's sister Elina gets tired of waiting for her princess to return and/or fall off a cliff again, so she goes on a journey to find her.
Later, Nowa's battle instructor Alleyne shows up, and growls to Reina about how the humans have been racist to the elves. The elves respond by declaring they will send Nowa to fight and possibly die in Queen's Blade for the horrible crime of being a half-elf, half-human child. Nowa decides to accept the assignment because she loves her adopted Elven folks so much, Nanael gets pissed off again because she's only had one successful match that wasn't interrupted and didn't involve her getting smacked by something, and Reina confirms that yes, Nowa has been "going commando" the entire time and either doesn't notice or doesn't care.

Karin Boye
Biography of Karin Boye
Boye was born in Gothenburg (Göteborg), Sweden, and moved with her family to Stockholm in 1909. She studied at Uppsala University from 1921 to 1926 and debuted in 1922 with a collection of poems, "Clouds" (Sw. "Moln"). During her time in Uppsala and until 1930, Boye was a member of the socialist group Clarté.
In 1931 Boye, together with Erik Mesterton and Josef Riwkin, founded the poetry magazine Spektrum, introducing T. S. Eliot and the Surrealists to Swedish readers. Together with the critic Erik Mesterton, she translated Eliot's "The Waste Land". She was largely responsible for translating the work of T. S. Eliot into Swedish.
Karin Boye is perhaps most famous for her poems, of which the most well-known ought to be "Yes, of course it hurts" (Sw. "Ja visst gör det ont") and "In motion" (Sw. "I rörelse") from her collections of poems "The Hearths" (Sw. "Härdarna"), 1927, and "For the sake of the tree" (Sw. "För trädets skull"), 1935. She was also a member of the Swedish literary institution Samfundet De Nio (chair number 6) from 1931 until her death in 1941.
Boye's novel "Crisis" (Sw. "Kris") depicts her religious crisis and lesbianism. In her novels "Merit awakens" (Sw. "Merit vaknar") and "Too little" (Sw. "För lite") she explores male and female role-playing.
Outside Sweden, her best-known work is probably the novel "Kallocain". Inspired by her visit to the Soviet Union in 1928 and her visit to Germany during the rise of National Socialism it was a portrayal of a dystopian society in the vein of Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four and Huxley's Brave New World (though written almost a decade before Nineteen Eighty-Four). In the novel, an idealistic scientist named Leo Kall invents Kallocain, a kind of truth serum. The novel was filmed in Sweden 1981 and was the main influence for the movie Equilibrium.

It's got a relaxing vibe about it and away from the hustle and bustle of the centre of town and the hoards of people arriving from cruise ships. On that note it's about a $6 cab ride to town, or a very easy 45min walk.
We also did a number of dives with scuba du (who have a little office within the hotel) and they were super professional and I would highly recommend them. The reef is quite far away from the hotel, but their fabulous boats picked us up every day from the jetty at the hotel.
My only gripe is that I would have preferred more Mexican options on the dinner menu :)
I would definitely stay here again!

Is he the one? Will I be happy? Can our relationship last? Are we sexually compatible? Chinese astrology can provide insight for every aspect of your love life –- no matter if you're already in a relationship or simply seeking one.
So you met a sexy stranger at a party last night. Should you give him the green light? Using Chinese astrology as guidance, you could discover that -- based on your Chinese animal sign -- you're in luck. For example, it could just so happen that yesterday was favorable for romance for you, and that the party took place during an auspicious hour.
Then, if you take a look at the big picture, your chart might indicate that romance is strong at this point in your life, and that your chi (energy) level is above average now. If you look even deeper, you can better understand just what it is about him that appeals to you.
But first, how well do you understand yourself? What kind of guy are you looking for? Is a macho man your cup of tea, or would you prefer a sensitive new-age guy? Love the outdoors? A man born under the sign of the Horse may be just right for you. Fine dining? Try a Sheep sign. Are you all about fun and games? A Monkey man would be the perfect fit for you.
And let's not forget the bedroom. Are you into fetishes? You might give the Rooster a try. Cuddling? A Pig or Snake is likely to keep you warm during cold, winter nights. Want something other than the missionary position? Check out the Monkey!
Fast forward: Time has passed and things are going great with the sexy stranger (well, not a stranger anymore!) Time to set a date. Your wedding is one of the most important occasions of your life. Consult the Chinese Almanac to choose an auspicious date and hour.
After several happy years together, you decide to have a child. A strong bond with your bundle of joy is no doubt a top priority. Next year's Tiger baby is likely to develop a strong attachment with his Dog or Horse mom. Or, if you are a Sheep, it would be wise to wait until the following year, as a Rabbit baby should win your heart.
More time passes, and now you're into that all-important eighth year of marriage. Sure, there have been the usual disagreements and stresses, but nothing is seriously threatening your relationship. Still, is there something you could do to make it even better? Take a look at the Element mix between you and your partner. Perhaps there isn't much Water element in your two charts, which would indicate that you both need make an extra effort when trying to communicate to one another.

Cornell plans net-zero energy academic center for NYC Tech Campus
December 09, 2011
Cornell University's proposed New York City Tech Campus on Roosevelt Island will use solar power to create a net-zero energy building. The 150,000-sf academic building could become the largest net-zero energy building in the eastern United States and the fourth-largest in the country. The Building Team, led by Distributed Sun, a solar energy development company, and A/E firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, have also developed a solar array more than three times larger than any other such system in the city. It will generate 1.8 MW at daily peak.

CU: Home • A to Z • Campus Map
Last year the Boulder Faculty Assembly (BFA) piloted a student mentorship program in which faculty volunteers 'adopted' and periodically met with small groups of new freshman students during for the academic year. This pilot program helped to make a large campus smaller for many of our incoming students and received great reviews from our students and their parents alike.
This year the BFA has expanded their student mentorship program and to-date faculty volunteers have already committed to the mentorship of more than 2,000 incoming freshman for this academic year, and the number of mentees is still increasing. To ensure that this program can meet this increased demand and fill the valuable role on this campus, we need additional faculty to engage in this important effort.

There are certain perfumes I reach out for during this time of the year. I'm a fan of anything vanilla smelling and also anything fruity. I've racked up quite the perfume collection but these three are my absolute favourite fragrances to wear this summer!
Victoria's Secret's Noir Tease EDP: It's an enchanting blend of black vanilla, frozen pear and blooming gardenia. I LOVE the smell of the vanilla mixed with fruity elements. It's not a strong scent either and it smell of it lasts quite some time. This perfume is for anyone who loves a combination of the two! I'm thinking of grabbing the body mist version of it soon!
Comptoir Sud Pacifique's Vanille Extreme EDT: More intense than Vanille Passion, this Vanille scent is sweet, warm, and spicy. I've been looking for a great vanilla fragrance and saw Kandee Johnson mention it in one of her videos and I knew I had to scope this one out! And like I imagined it would be, it was love at first smell! I recommend this fragrance to anyone who's a diehard vanilla fan as that's exactly what you get, nothing more. It's perfect to wear when you're out at the beach or out on date night.
Escada's Moon Sparkle EDT: A fruity floral fragrance, with sparkling strawberry and red apple notes. I've been following Escada's fragrance line for a while and NOTHING has compared to this one! I love this one so much that I've been savouring every last drop. From the fruity top notes right down to the base notes of sandalwood and amber is complete perfection for me! It came out in 2007 so I know it's quite hard to find but if you ever find it on ebay, I say go for it! You won't be disappointed!
What fragrances are YOU reaching for this season?!

All around good wear
This jacket is the bee's knees. I live above the arctic circle where it's already reached -20C, -40c with the wind chill. This is one of the warmest jackets I've ever warn but its not too warm to wear indoors too. I got the Drip light colour and the green on the jacket is a bit brighter than I expected. Also the heater is only a 8x8 inch pad on the back but it works. For the price I expected some in the front-maybe next year.

Drone strike kills 8 Qaeda suspects
Comment on this storyAden -
Eight suspected Al-Qaeda members were killed in an apparent US drone strike in eastern Yemen on Friday, a local official said.
It was the third such anti-Qaeda strike in Hadramawt province this week, following attacks on Tuesday and Wednesday that left seven dead.
The United States is the only country that has drones in the region and it has stepped up its strikes on Al-Qaeda targets in the Arabian Peninsula state.
Al-Qaeda took advantage of a nearly year-long uprising which led to president Ali Abdullah Saleh stepping down in February to seize large swathes of south and east Yemen. - Sapa-AFP

Can a recirculation loop off a tankless water heater (which decreases how long you have to wait for hot water) be used to heat a basement ?? |

- Posted by jakethewonderdog (My Page) on Wed, Jul 21, 10 at 17:24
What is the heat loss of your basement? That will answer your question in a hurry. |
Just a follow-up on tankless thread. I have an radiant heat set-up with staple up between joists and in slab for garage. Overall there is about 1000 feet of 1/2 inch tubing throughout including garage. Using recirc with tankless. Option on tankless is set-up for monitoring of temp every 1/2 hour by tankless unit and automatic firing of boiler if temp is greater than 9 degrees below set temp. I have set temp at 135, but temp only gets up to 111 degrees after running about 12 hours plus. I have two 1/25 hp pumps on system, one pushing water on suply side and other pulling on return. Both pumps are hot at 12 hrs+. Do I need bigger pumps? Do I need to up the set temp? Any input would be appreciated Thanks, Wyomike |

During the past few years I have encouraged Native American tribal governments to move their elections to coincide with the national elections in November.
I believed this to be very important for two reasons: First of all, the Native American vote has been terribly overlooked by candidates seeking national office for too many years. Second, tribal elections usually draw many more voters than national elections because the candidates are local and whether they are elected or not has a powerful impact upon tribal individuals and on the tribal government itself. If the elections for a national candidate fell on the same day as the local tribal elections the turnout would be much heavier and so the Native American voters would have a marked influence upon the national elections.
Native votes count
This theory came into play dramatically in 2002 when John Thune, a Republican, ran against Tim Johnson, a Democrat, in an at-large House seat in South Dakota. Johnson won the election by a mere 524 votes. As the counting of votes neared its end Thune was clearly leading, and his staff was about ready to uncork the champagne bottles.
The vote counting continued late into the night and as is the usual case in South Dakota, the votes from the western Indian reservations were among the last to be counted. When the votes from the Pine Ridge and Rosebud Reservations were tallied, Tim Johnson eased ahead and took the election.
Johnson had campaigned heavily in Indian Country and he was (and still is) deeply respected by the Native Americans of the state. Thune did little campaigning to attract the Indian vote. The outcome proved that the Indian vote can, and did, make a huge difference.
When a lot of outside money flooded South Dakota heavily favoring the Republican candidate John Thune against Sen. Tom Daschle in the 2004 election for the U.S. Senate, it was one of the first times that huge donations from out-of-state came into play to unseat a sitting U.S. senator. On election night the vote counting always begins in the eastern counties and works its way west. Once again Thune led the race, but the reservation votes had not yet been compiled. Tribal elections usually draw 60 to 70 percent of the eligible voters, but this time around only 50 percent of the voters turned out. Daschle lost by 4,508 votes.
In this Oglala Sioux Tribal election, Cecilia Fire Thunder became the first woman ever elected to serve as President of the Oglala Sioux Tribe. Some election officials believed that the turnout was smaller than usual because a woman was running for the tribe's highest office. Fire Thunder won the election but ended up being impeached by the Tribal Council for her stand on the right of a woman to have an abortion.
Pine Ridge turnout
With the lower voter turnout for this election in 2004 Daschle's chances to beat the big money corporations pouring money to defeat him was too much to overcome. Although he handily won the majority votes on the Indian reservations, the biggest reservation, Pine Ridge, failed to have the turnout he needed to overcome Thune.
In the upcoming 2014 elections nearly all of the candidates for the Senate and House are well aware of the impact the Indian reservations could have upon their prospects.
Incumbent U.S. Rep. Kristi Noem has been challenged by a western South Dakota woman, a military veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan, named Corinna Robinson. Tim Johnson is retiring from the Senate so his seat is up for grabs. The principle candidates are former South Dakota Gov. Mike Rounds, a Republican; former U.S. Senator Larry Pressler, an independent; Rick Weiland, a Democrat; and Gordie Howie, another independent. This is an interesting race because it is hard to determine which candidate will be hurt by the independents or if the independents have the capability of actually winning. Rounds could be the candidate hurt the most by Larry Pressler, a former Republican. Pressler may garner many of the Republican votes Rounds needs to defeat the rapidly rising Weiland.
This November also happens to be a year when the Pine Ridge Reservation will also be holding elections for the Tribal Council and for the office of the president. The candidates for the office of president have not made their announcements yet. Because of the heated political atmosphere on the reservation surrounding the legalization of the sale of alcohol within the boundaries of the reservation, this election is generating a lot of interest and could be contentious. Turnout will be very large and the candidates running for Congress know this.

7 of 12 - God is Love - He Gives Us Patience - Billy Crone - Today's Christian Videos
2253 views
One of the most misunderstood attributes of God is that God Is Love. Notice I didn't say He is loving or even just loveable. He's love itself. And people, stop and think of what that means. Every single thing God has ever done or ever will do is a perfect act of love. Why? Because God Is Love. But herein lies our problem. We live in a society that has a warped view of what true love is. When you mention the word "love" today, most people think it refers to doing something sexual. But people, God demonstrated what true love is by something sacrificial. He sent His Son to die for our sins. Now that is love! But even here, we've become so numb to this amazing act of God's love, that we have lost any appreciation for it. Therefore, God Is Love takes a look at the 6 ways God demonstrates that He is love itself. He does it by giving us Compassion, Kindness, Graciousness, Faithfulness, Patience, and Goodness. And what's so incredible about all this is that the whole time it's not only free for the asking but we don't deserve it! People of God, if we can't seem to appreciate the fact that God Is Love, then something is terribly wrong with us! If we had any idea of the depths of God's love we would not only fall on our knees in reverence and kiss the very feet of Christ but we'd get up on our feet and run to tell everyone of their immediate need of Christ! Why? Because that's what happens when you truly understand that God Is Love.

Two or Three tanks?
I've been having trouble playing against teams that have two or three tanks lately. I primarily play AD carries and lately most teams I play on are easily overwhelmed by a team with more than one tank.
I imagine this has been complained about before (sorry, I don't visit the forums often) but I believe the problem is primarily due to Warmogs. There aren't any AD items (or AP items to my knowledge) that stack with minion kills. There also aren't any AD items that don't lose their stacks upon death. Now I am aware that the idea behind Warmog's Armor is to allow a tank to "do his job" and end up with more deaths than his team without becoming severely weakened upon death. This usually seems fine when there is one tank. The problem seems to compound when you add in more than one tank with Warmog's. Suddenly there are two (or more) characters that are nearly impossible to damage (even if I've got full AD build: Inf Edge, Last Whisper, Phantom Dancer, etc. If I have a stacked Bloodthirster or two I'm probably fine, but it's so easy to lose those bonuses, and they certainly don't stack from minion kills or assists). On top of that, they can stack Atma's and essentially become massive damage dealers as well. Does anyone know good counters to this? I may just not be seeing the big picture, but it feels like tanks are maybe a little too well-rounded at the moment. Is 2-3 tanks just becoming the new meta? |
Madred's bloodrazor was made to counter warmog and hp tanks.
Also, Last Whisper is also good for armor tanks... Black Cleaver too
And BTW, Atma's Impaler passive does not stack. What gave you that idea? -Savage |
Yes, they certainly do. |
if the other team has 2 or 3 'tanks' as you call them (they are probably tanky dpsers) and you want to play an ad carry get vayne. if they get hp and armor then get a Phantom and a black cleaver. attack speed plus silver bolts blows through their life. if they just grab a warmongers then grab inf edge and trinity force.
or you can just play as olaf, pull an atmong build, and get tanky yourself. fyi, atmong build is atmas impaler and warmongers |
Ever heard of Madreds Bloodrazor and Last Whisper? AD carries should be able to eat through tanks lategame as long as the carries arent focused.

QSC Introduces Two New Cinema Loudspeaker Systems
Built expressly to meet the needs of professional motion picture playback in smaller theatres, QSCâs new SC-2150 loudspeaker is one of two new members of the DCS (Digital Cinema Speaker) Series.
Offering high-power handling, excellent sensitivity, and extended bass response in a very compact enclosure, the SC-2150 is a three-way, selectably passive full-range or bi-amplified screen channel loudspeaker comprised of two main units: A mid-high frequency system and a low frequency enclosure. The components are easily assembled on-site via a pan and tilt bracket that mounts the mid-high components to the top of the LF enclosure.
The mid-high system features a high output, horn-loaded 6.5â? midrange cone driver and a 1.4â? (35.6 mm) diaphragm compression driver. QSCâs patented Cine-Sight simplifies aiming of the horns for proper audience coverage.
The dual 15â? (381 mm) low-frequency enclosure is built to address the extended low-frequency response required for cinema applications. The compact LF device is only 14.5â? (368 mm) deep, reducing the space required behind the screen. The enclosure is constructed of high quality MDF panels and employs separate chambers for each transducer. In the rare event of a transducer theft or failure, this prevents over-excursion of the remaining transducer caused by improper box loading.
Thanks to a design feature within which the bass ports are evenly spaced on each side of the transducers, internal pressure within the enclosure is more uniform across the back surface of the drivers. This prevents the cone from being displaced to one side or another by unbalanced forces, reducing the chance of driving the voice coil out of the center of the gap at high power.
The SC-2150 additionally includes a driver protection network and a passive crossover for bi-amp and full passive operation. Power limiter circuitry protects the high-frequency and mid-frequency drivers from overpowering. A simple switch setting determines the operating mode and eliminates dual inventory and ordering issues associated with fixed bi-amp or passive models. The 3-way design provides exceptional coverage of the critical midrange band for improved dialog intelligibility.
Three bolts are all that are required to secure the SC-2150âs mid-high system to the top of the LF enclosure. A pre-wired harness and connector plugs into the terminal plate to provide all electrical connections to the mid-high system. Pre-installed rubber feet speed installation, thereby reducing labor costs.
QSCâs new SR-8100 cinema surround loudspeaker is the second newcomer to the DCS Series built expressly for use in smaller theatres. Offering high power handling, excellent sensitivity, and extended bass response in a very compact enclosure, the device features a long-throw 8â? low-frequency transducer coupled with a 1â? soft dome tweeter. The systemâs MDF enclosure incorporates a 15° down angle baffle and easily accessible top-mounted terminals. The 125-watt continuous power rating and sophisticated crossover with protection circuitry provides absolute reliability, while the black-finished enclosure with black grille blends easily into any theatre environment.
A proprietary QSC design, QSCâs QuickMount bracket allows for fast, easy and secure installation of the SR-8100. The loudspeaker half of the bracket comes pre-installed on each SR-8100, while the QuickMount QM-SW wall bracket is purchased separately to facilitate shipment to the job site ahead of the loudspeakers. A traditional U-bracket, the YM-300, is also available in lieu of the QuickMount bracket system. The SR-8100 is shipped in pairs to reduce shipping costs.

Cranes descent for the evening while air traffic control monitors their flight patterns.Sandhills are the most common of all the world's cranes. A fossil from the Miocene Epoch, some ten million years ago, was found to be structurally the same as the modern sandhill crane. Today, these large birds are found predominately in North America. They range south to Mexico and Cuba, and as far west as Siberia. Migratory subspecies of sandhill cranes breed in the Northern U.S., Canada, Alaska, and Siberia. Each winter they undertake long southern journeys to wintering grounds in Florida, Texas, Utah, Mexico, and California. En route, more than three-fourths of all sandhill cranes use migratory staging areas in a single 75-mile stretch along...

Marie and Joachim in Billund
Princess Marie and Prince Joachim had a guided tour of the Lego factory in Billund today by Lego Fonden's manager, Morten Aagaard.
Joachim and Marie also joined in the work going on there, helping to box some of the 5,000 sets that will go to children in hospital.
Princess Marie has been involved with the Lego Fund before; her first foreign visit, in Morocco, was to distribute lego to Morocco's poor children.
The Lego Fund was founded in 1986 and is "intended to safeguard and consolidate the basis for the LEGO Group related companies continued existence and development."

I've read through the posts on building a plant stand and have picked up some great information and ideas. Unfortunately I'm still a bit confused and have to ask a "worn" out question (or three!).
2) HD had cases of Philips bulbs:
Yes, I'm still confused on the importance of the various ratings - but am I right in leaning towards the Alto Plus CW? Or is there something else better that's reasonably priced? Shoot - as I write this and revisit some articles, I wonder if I should go back to the drawing board! Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions... |

instead of sheet metal you could just use aluminum foil secured to some cardboard. i just got a new cheap fixture also and today i got some GE sunshine 40W 2250 lumens 90 CRI from lowes. they came in a two pack for $7. |

Thanks! I went and picked up the stand at Lowes and checked again...they had some dual 4' T-8 fixtures with reflectors for a good price (closeouts). The ballasts only accomodate 32w (they didn't think T-8's went up to 40w and I couldn't remember) but figure maybe a better buy? Coincidentally, I saw the GE Sunshines in the T-8 size for a good price and wondered! Again thanks and I guess will continue to fine tune...and any suggestions are very much welcomed :-) |
- Posted by cajunbadger 9 La (My Page) on Sat, Jan 12, 08 at 21:59
Sorry for being so verbose before. The primary question - given the variety of bulbs, I'm not sure what to get. Reading the various posts, my leaning is to a cool white in the ballpark of 3000+K and a decent CRI. In reading the posts and other sites, I'm having a tough time putting together what would be best and am hoping to learn. |
cajunbadger, I have been using the Philips Cool White Plus 4100K lamps over my seedlings for many years and have no complaints. HD must be stocking a newer model bulb since mine are 2850 lumens, 4100K, 78 CRI, and 20,000 hours. Regards, Rokal |
I'm curious, for growing seedlings, how important is the Kelvin rating for growing them? I grow aquatic freshwater plants in an aquarium with compact fluorescent bulbs rated at 6700 because it is what is recommended. Is it different for seedlings, or doesn't it matter? BTW, I'm not going to use CF's for starting seeds, I am going with the standard fluorescents. Karen |

First correcting a typo I had above: "cool white in the ballpark of 3000+K" should have read "...of 4000+K." Rokal, thanks for the advice/input! Lowes has Sylvania cool whites (4100K, 75CRI, 2850 lumens ...going from memory on the exact specs) at a good price which I'll likely buy. Tepelus, being a novice I'm likely oversimplifying/generalizing what I've read from here and other web sites. If anything has been misstated, I hope folks will clear this up for me (but be gentle *grin*)! The cool whites (around 4200K) produce a blue spectrum good for plant foliage and seedling growth. The warm whites (around 3200K) have a higher red output which is also used in photosynthesis/growth. The downside of the red spectrum is it can lead to tall, spindly plants. I've read some mention of mixing the two, but sounds like going strictly with cool white is fine. Lastly, some bulbs have both a standard and a pro/plus variety. The pro or plus are recommended though as someone asked...what makes them pro or plus? Length of life or...? |

Remote Alaskan Villages Get Indoor Plumbing
Melissa Block talks to Matt Dixon, vice president of operations for the Division of Environmental Health and Engineering at the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium, about a recent multimillion-dollar grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture to provide and improve indoor plumbing to villages in Alaska.
Copyright © 2012 NPR. For personal, noncommercial use only. See Terms of Use. For other uses, prior permission required.
From NPR News, this is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I'm Robert Siegel.
And I'm Melissa Block. Sixteen remote communities in Alaska, mostly native villages, will be getting sanitation facilities for the first time. The U.S. Department of Agriculture this week announced about $29 million in grants to bring running water and flush toilets to those villages. The money will be distributed through the state, and the Alaska Native Tribal health Consortium and Matt Dixon will be overseeing the program. He joins me to talk about it. Welcome.
MATT DIXON: Thank you.
BLOCK: And, Matt, why don't you describe the villages where you're going to be doing this work? What are they like?
DIXON: You know, if you're not from Alaska, they're really hard to describe. Alaskan villages are very, very remote. There's no road access, and most are located either on the coast or on a river. So during the summer months, you can get there via boat or barge if you want to move heavy equipment in. But in general, you're going to fly to these communities. Some of them as far as three to 400 miles from what most of us would consider a metropolitan area, and they vary in size, anywhere from about 100 people to about 1,200 folks.
BLOCK: Now, why don't you explain what the system is now in these villages for water and for sanitation?
DIXON: In general, those communities that do not have I would call regular sanitation, they don't get to get up in the morning and walk right down the hall and have water available. In the winter months, they're actually cutting ice from lakes and rivers and melting it and bringing it into the home. During the summer months, predominantly, they're either collecting it out of springs, rivers, or they collect it off of their roofs into barrels and drink that water there. Now, on the sanitary side, we're using what are called honey buckets, and they're anything but honey buckets.
It's a five-gallon bucket that people use as a commode. And the big disadvantage there is that waste then has to be hauled out by hand from the house through the village to a lagoon. So the chances for disease transmission because of that is much, much greater. You don't get that magic little silver handle that sends it all away. You actually have to carry it out of your house and through the community.
BLOCK: What are the health issues that you're dealing with in these communities?
DIXON: Well, you know, we've known for a long time that gastroenteric diseases are much, much higher in communities where safe water is not available. But recently, we've discovered that it's not just the gastroenteric diseases that are a problem, but it's respiratory and skin diseases that also skyrocket when communities do not have running water and sewer. I think most of us here whenever there's a flu epidemic, wash your hands, wash your hands, wash your hands. And in the community where you don't have water, that becomes very difficult. And so what we're seeing is that actual hospitalizations are much, much higher in communities without water and sewer.
BLOCK: What are you going to be building with this grant money in these Alaskan villages?
DIXON: Well, we can't just go in and serve an individual home. We actually have to provide the backbone of the sanitation infrastructure. So what that involves is some sort of water source, a well, a river, a lake. We have to treat that water in a water treatment plant, and we have to have a central facility to treat and dispose of the waste. That's the basic infrastructure, and then we provide pipes to get water to the homes and sewer pipes to get water away from the homes. So once all that basic infrastructure is developed in, we can actually go into the house, provide plumbing so that the folks can actually have that running water in their homes.
BLOCK: Now, what's the timeframe for this? When is the project going to be done?
DIXON: These projects that were recently funded, the money will be available within the next month. We have a very short season to work in in Alaska, but we'll begin building and doing construction work this summer, probably work through next summer. So we're hopeful by the end of 2014, early 2015, folks will actually be turning water on in their homes.
BLOCK: Well, Matt Dixon with the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium in Anchorage, thanks so much for talking to us.
DIXON: And thank you.

text: Ok, I think I need some help. I started running in Jan 07, 5 days a week. I run (currently) 2.75 mi on a teadmil at 4 miles per hour. I am increasing my distance by a "half a lap" each week and am aiming for a 5k. When I see what other are doing, it seems like what I am doing is pathetic!! I know I could run further (could do 5k now, but not 5 days a week), but I thought it would be better to take it slow. If I go faster though, I wouldn't be able to go as far. My 1 mile is basically 14 some odd mins! How do I go faster but still be able to add to my distance. I just seem unusually slow compared to most people. Any help? Thanks. Jelly

3rd best American keeper; hands down.
Watch him as it comes in. Incredibly cool. Full upright and loose. No problem. Can't remember seeing a keeper deal with that situation like that. Only question is could he of perhaps snagged the cross. Tough decision.
Yeah, looking forward to seeing him get some time between the national team's sticks. Hamid has had many chances and yet to impress.

French brand Locher's is famous for its funny, irreverent approach to what at a first glance seems to be the most romantic, classic fashion item.
This time they are back with a new apparel collection: cute pastel tops, enriched by embroidered flowers, hearts and bows in which camouflaged cross-stitch wordings suddenly break the romance and speak loud raw messages such as "I am your worst nightmare." The contrast between the messages and garment design is incredibly innovative, and speaks to the creative nature of the designers.
A mom and granny-friendly look with a malicious soul, taking the explicit message to another level, in a playful hide and seek with archetypal looks. The collection is limited edition and available on the Locher's website.

In a small rural village in Chechnya, eight-year-old Havaa watches from the woods as Russian soldiers abduct her father in the middle of the night and then set fire to her home. When their lifelong neighbor Akhmed finds Havaa hiding in the forest with a strange blue suitcase, he makes a decision that will forever change their lives. He will seek refuge at the abandoned hospital where the sole remaining doctor, Sonja Rabina, treats the wounded.
For Sonja, the arrival of Akhmed and Havaa is an unwelcome surprise. Weary and overburdened, she has no desire to take on additional risk and responsibility. But over the course of five extraordinary days, Sonja's world will shift on its axis and reveal the intricate pattern of connections that weaves together the pasts of these three unlikely companions and unexpectedly decides their fate. A story of the transcendent power of love in wartime, A Constellation of Vital Phenomena is a work of sweeping breadth, profound compassion, and lasting significance.
Now with Extra Libris material, including a reader's guide and bonus content from the author.
"Mr. Marra is trying to capture some essence of the lives of men and women caught in the pincers of a brutal, decade-long war, and at this he succeeds beautifully….his storytelling impulses are fed by wellsprings of generosity…. [The] ending is almost certain to leave you choked up and, briefly at least, transformed by tenderness."
—Wall Street Journal
"Remarkable….This is, from first to last, a novel about love as much as war….In the aftermath of Boston, in a world where all our lives are linked more closely than ever before, these are words to hold close."
—Cleveland Plain Dealer
"Marra is an author talented way beyond his years…Dazzling."
—Chicago Tribune
"Marra delicately weaves together several narratives against the backdrop of this bleak, war-ravaged country.… If you're a fan of beautifully composed, internationally set fiction like The Tiger's Wife or The Orphan Master's Son, A Constellation of Vital Phenomenais a worthy next pick. The Whiting Writers' Award selection committee dubbed Marra's ambitions "Tolstoyan," and there could not be a better word to describe his all-too-real cast of characters. This is an exquisite debut."
"The most moving book I've read in years. By writing so beautifully about a tiny village in Chechnya, this 28-year-old Washington native has produced a timeless tragedy about the victims of war."
—The Washingtonian
"[An] extraordinary first novel…Marra collapses time, sliding between 1996 and 2004 while also detailing events in a future yet to arrive, giving his searing novel an eerie, prophetic aura. All of the characters are closely tied together in ways that Marra takes his time revealing, even as he beautifully renders the way we long to connect and the lengths we will go to endure."
—Booklist (starred review)
"Marra's debut novel places readers in Chechnya during its decade-long conflict with Russia and offers up an authentic, heartbreaking tale of intertwining relationships during wartime….As he shifts in time through the years of the two Chechen wars, Marra confidently weaves those plots together, and several more besides, giving each character a rich backstory that intersects, often years down the line, with the others….[T]he novel's tone remains optimistic, and its characters retain vast depths of humanity (and even humor) in spite of their bleak circumstances."
–Library Journal (starred review)
"It's hard to think of an American writer who has so convincingly transported readers into the lives of characters as geopolitically distant as the cast of Chechens whose stories Anthony Marra braids together in A Constellation of Vital Phenomena. Mr. Marra gives us no anchorage in a familiar point-of-view. Instead, he gives us the natives of a peripheral Chechen village, and makes us imagine the world that is their village so convincingly that we forget how remote it is. The novel is a wondrous machine of many moving parts, all whirring together like clockwork, gracefully guiding us backward and forward in time, events unfolding in an order that feels inevitable. His ambitions are Tolstoyan, and he brings stylistic virtuosity to the prose, giving us lyric passages saturated with intelligence and psychological insight. By the end of the novel, we love the characters and grieve with them, and rejoice with the 'immense, spinning joy'that is the novel's final note."
—Whiting Writers' Awards, Selection Committee
"Powerful, convincing, beautifully realized—it's hard to believe that A Constellation of Vital Phenomena is a first novel. Anthony Marra is a writer to watch and savor."
—T.C. Boyle, New York Times bestselling author of When the Killing's Done and The Women
"A Constellation of Vital Phenomena is simply spectacular. Not since Everything is Illuminated have I read a first novel so ambitious and fully realized. If this is where Anthony Marra begins his career, I can't imagine how far he will go."
—Ann Patchett, New York Times bestselling author of State of Wonder and Bel Canto
"Remarkable and breathtaking, Anthony Marra's A Constellation of Vital Phenomena is a spellbinding elegy for an overlooked land engulfed by an oft forgotten war. Set in the all-too-real Chechen conflict, Marra conjures fragile and heartfelt characters whose fates interrogate the very underpinnings of love and sacrifice."
—Adam Johnson, Pulitzer prize winning author of The Orphan Master's Son
"Anthony Marra's fine debut novel reaches tenderly, unflinchingly, into the center of the Chechnyan conflict of the late 1990s. This tale has its roots in shocking brutality, and its beauty in the human redemption that can come from unaccountable human kindness. Whimsies of circumstance, fate, and the ties of family and faith serve to guide the reader and the characters through a richly layered and deeply beautiful journey."
─Vincent Lam, author of The Headmaster's Wager
