Automated control system improves processes in California vineyard.
Viticulture is the science surrounding the growing of grapes used to make wine. In the counties north of San Francisco, it is big business. This is the home of Napa, Sonoma and Mendocino counties, where some of the finest wines in the world are produced.
Yolo County, in the Sacramento Valley bordering Napa, also has many acres under wine cultivation. While the grapes are of excellent quality, the varying types of soil and valley locations translate into growing conditions that require expertise and hard work. Temperatures can range from a frosty 27 F in the winter to summer highs of more than 100 F. The area averages only 12 to 16 inches of rain per year.
Typically, only one wine grape crop, harvested by the end of November, is harvested. The growing season is long and the need for an abundant supply of water is critical from May through October. The predominantly sandy soil allows the water to percolate through. Therefore, without an extensive system of reservoirs and canals maintained by the county, nothing could be grown there.
The Vineyard
Located near tiny Esparto, Calif., the Rolling Hills Vineyard has 178 acres of grape arbors on a ranch owned by the Mondavi family and managed by Shannon Ranches, Inc. The grape arbor has been cultivated for the past 25 years. It is in a valley, which means that more water is needed to produce yields comparable to other north coast wine-producing areas.
Shannon Ranches shares water from a Yolo County District Water Gate with RH Phillips, a 1,700-acre ranch owned by Constellation Brands, a global wine producer. The water is delivered via an underground pipeline to the Phillips vineyard six miles away. There are two pumping stations along an irrigation canal that supply Rolling Hills and the Constellation site.
Shannon Ranches pumping station
Ensuring that operations run smoothly and that the annual yield is met is the job entrusted to Eugenio Figueroa, vineyard manager, Shannon Ranches, Inc.
He has worked in the vineyards for the past 12 years, with Shannon Ranches for four years and previously with Constellation Wines. As the manager of operations, Eugenio supervises 25 workers year round, but that number can grow to 120 depending on the season.
"It's extremely important that we get all the water that is allowed to us," Figueroa says. "We order the water we need in feet per second, and the county supplies it.
"However, the water level in the canals changes as other users take what they require. The county maintains a reservoir that gets the water from Lake County, about 80 miles north of us, and then distributes it by irrigation canals throughout our county. Most of our pumping stations use electric motor-driven pumps that incorporate variable speed drives, but we are not on the grid at this site so we rely on engine/pumping systems that use a diesel engine driving a 2,500-gallon-per-minute pump. We actually have four diesel engine pumping stations that I'm responsible for."
Water Supply & Volume Problems
Maintaining and controlling the diesel engine pump sets has always been problematic and labor intensive, according to Figueroa. Twice each day, and sometimes more, he or an employee would take a pickup truck to visit each pumping site to make sure the pumps were running and supplying the water as needed.
He was familiar with engine controls made by an instrumentation and controls company because nearly all the engine/pump sets in the area used its products.
"We've been using FW Murphy control systems for the past four years, ever since we've been at this location," he says. The automated control system was installed in mid-summer 2011. The vineyard needed a control system that would increase the speed of the pump when the level went down to make sure that the operators could get all the water allotted. Now, Figueroa and other operators can monitor the pump's performance from a smart phone, from PCs at home or in the offices on site. Without automated controls, the pump, at times, would not run fast enough to get all the water that was wanted or would even run dry when the water was gone. The new control system can:
Stop and start the engine
Vary the speed
Smooth out the peaks and valleys of the water levels in the canal
In the past, if an engine shuts down overnight and a worker does not arrive until morning, the vineyard would lose a half day of pumping and could not get the water back.
"Normally, I would start and end my day at an engine/pumping site," says Figueroa. "Now, using the EMS PRO and the advanced Ranch System controller, I can check the water level in the canal and monitor engine performance through my cell phone. In addition, the system will send me an alert if the engine and pump parameters are exceeded. If the engine shuts down for any reason, the system will send a text message to our operating base by cell phone."
The Control System
Introduced in 2010, the compact engine controller is designed and built to meet the demands of any industrial engine-driven equipment application. Rugged and user-friendly, it is easily installed and able to support both mechanical and J1939 electronic engines. It can be used as a standalone control or part of a SCADA system.

# cd /usr/src/linux # make modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/nfsroot |
Don't forget to put the System.map file in /nfsroot/boot. A first problem we will have to fix is that, depending on your configuration, your system may try to run fsck on the root filesystem at boot time. It shouldn't if there is no hard drive in the box. Most distributions will also skip this fsck if they find a fastboot file in the root directory. So, issue the following commands if you do not plan to mount any hard drive:
# cd /nfsroot # touch fastboot # chmod 0 fastboot |
# cd /nfsroot/sbin # ln -s ../bin/true fsck.nfs |
The /dev directory can also be safely copied from another place into /nfsroot. But permissions and symlinks have to be preserved, so use cp -a. Another solution is to use kernel 2.2.x devfs feature, which will reduce memory consumption and improve performance, but the drawback of this method is that all symlinks created in /dev will be lost. The point to remember is that each workstation needs to have its own /dev, so you will have to copy it on a ramdisk if you plan to use several clients and not to use devfs.
# this part only if you don't use devfs mke2fs -q -i 1024 /dev/ram0 16384 mount -n -t ext2 -o rw,suid,dev,exec, \ async,nocheck /dev/ram0 /dev # this part for everyone mke2fs -q -i 1024 /dev/ram1 16384 mount -n -t ext2 -o rw,suid,dev,exec, \ async,nocheck /dev/ram1 /tmp chmod 1777 /tmp cp -a /etc /tmp mke2fs -q -i 1024 /dev/ram2 16384 mount -n -t ext2 -o rw,suid,dev,exec, \ async,nocheck /dev/ram2 /etc find /tmp/etc -maxdepth 1 -exec cp -a '{}' /etc ';' mount -f -t ext2 -o rw,suid,dev,exec, \ async,nocheck,remount /dev/ram2 /etc mount -f -o remount / cp -a /var /tmp mke2fs -q -i 1024 /dev/ram3 16384 mount -t ext2 -o rw,suid,dev,exec, \ async,nocheck /dev/ram3 /var find /tmp/var -maxdepth 1 -exec cp -a '{}' /var ';' |
If you plan to use more than a single client, you will also have to change files dynamically at boot time in /etc: the files which contain the IP and hostname of the client. These files depend on your distribution, but you will easily find them with a few greps. Just remove client-specific information from them, and add code into your startup files to generate this information again at boot time but only once the new /etc has been mounted on the ramdisk! A way to obtain your IP address and hostname at bootup is the following (if you have the bootpc package installed on the workstations'filesystem):
IPADDR="$(bootpc | awk '/IPADDR/ \ { match($0,"[A-Za-z]+") s=substr($0,RSTART+RLENGTH) match(s,"[0-9.]+") print substr(s,RSTART,RLENGTH) } ')" HOST="$(bootpc | awk '/HOSTNAME/ \ { match($0,"[A-Za-z]+") s=substr($0,RSTART+RLENGTH) match(s,"[A-Za-z0-9-]+") print substr(s,RSTART,RLENGTH) }')" DOMAIN="$(bootpc | awk '/DOMAIN/ \ { match($0,"[A-Za-z]+") s=substr($0,RSTART+RLENGTH) match(s,"[A-Za-z0-9-.]+") print substr(s,RSTART,RLENGTH) }')" |
Then, the hostname should be set with the hostname $HOSTNAME command. When this is done, it is time to generate on the fly the configuration files which contain the IP address or the hostname of the client.
*.* /dev/tty12 *.* @dns or IP of the logs server |
If you use logrotate and you have done the preceding operation, you should replace the logrotate configuration file (/etc/logrotate.conf on most boxes) by an empty file:
# rm -f /etc/logrotate.conf # touch /etc/logrotate.conf |
In the /nfsroot/etc/fstab file, remove anything related to the hard drive, floppy disk reader, or cdrom if you don't have such devices on your workstations. Add an entry for the /var/spool/mail directory, which should be exported by the server through NFS or any other network filesystem. You probably also want to put an entry for the /home directory in this file.
You can also comment the lines running newaliases, activating swap, and running depmod -a and remove the /nfsroot/etc/mtab file. Comment out the line(s) removing /fastboot, /fsckoptions, and /forcefsck in your startup scripts. Also remove or comment any line in the startup scripts that would try to write on the root filesystem except for really necessary writes, which should all be redirected to some ramdisk location if you use several clients.

Higher-degree research being undertaken by Tess Howes
Degree: |
EdD |
Supervisors: |
Associate Professor Deb Hayes and Honorary Professor Andrew Gonczi |
Thesis title: |
Leading strategic planning in Australian universities: a case study |
Email: |
firstname.lastname@example.com |
Project description
This research project presents nine case studies from a qualitative study conducted in Australian universities. The study participants include a Vice-Chancellor, two former Vice-Chancellors, a Deputy Vice-Chancellor, a Dean, and four senior members of the professoriate. The raw data published in this study explains when, and for what purpose, strategic planning was introduced to the Australian university sector; what forms of leadership were most effective in driving this change; and what organisational impact this had on Australian universities. The strategic planning approaches described in the case studies are discussed and referenced against Mintzberg's Ten Schools of Strategy Development (1999, 2000). The leadership styles are compared and contrasted against the four leadership styles offered by the Situational Leadership Model II (SLII) developed by Blanchard, Zigarmi & Zigarmi (1985). As the case studies are also reflective, the participants consider how their approach to leading strategic planning has changed during their career, and offer recommendations for practice for the next generation of leaders tasked to lead strategic planning in Australian universities in the future.
Tess Howes has twenty years of experience as a senior professional member of staff at three Australian universities: The University of Technology, Sydney; Sydney University, and Macquarie University. She holds a Master of Educational Leadership (Higher Education) with the Vice-Chancellor's commendation for academic excellence, a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Australian feminist history and a Bachelor of Arts in History and Legal Studies. Tess has a range of research interests in leadership, strategic planning, strategy development, management, the history of the Australian university sector, particularly the Dawkins Reforms, as well as turn of the century Australian feminist self-expression having completed a History Honours thesis on Louisa Lawson and The Dawn 1888-1905. Tess took several months off paid work to finalise her thesis for submission at the end of this semester and is scheduled to commence a new professional position in June. She has excellent time management skills and managed to raise a large, boisterous family while working full-time and studying part-time for the last twenty years.

Moody's Investors Service downgraded the Spanish government's credit rating on Tuesday from "A1" from "Aa2."
The move by the agency came just four days after Standard & Poor's cut its rating on the nation's long-term debt.
Moody's also issued a negative outlook for the struggling nation's debt.
Spain is still in the throes of a two-year recession. Unemployment remains high, credit is tight, the banking sector is weak, and the private sector carries heavy debt.
The country is trying to address its credit problems. It continues to pay higher interest rates because investors believe it will be the next European country in need of a bailout.
Moody's said that even if a solution to the crisis is reached, it will take time for confidence in the nation's political cohesion and growth prospects to be fully restored.
Spain is the fourth largest economy in the Eurozone, the 12th largest in the world.
The move comes as European leaders are trying to make progress on the region's debt crisis that could threaten the financial system of the continent and spread to other parts of the world.
Moody's has also warned France it might review its credit rating.

Up in the AIR: How will tech residencies reshape Bay Area art?
Image from Art+Tech: Virtual Reality, November 2014. (Photo: Codame).
Over the past year, San Francisco and the Bay Area have come to be defined in the national sphere by the think piece. In the constant stream of articles about gentrification, the Ellis Act evictions, artist displacement, and arts non profits closing left and right in response to the city's rising population and booming tech industry, it might be surprising to note that a number of tech companies are investing increasingly in artist residency programs. In fact, two of the biggest tech companies in the region—Facebook and Autodesk—maintain active residency programs. For companies without the infrastructure for such endeavors, local art and technology non-profit CODAME offers to pair tech companies with artists for individual projects through their "Adopt An Artist" program. While there is a lot of conversation (and concern) in the Bay Area regarding the tech industry's lack of support and philanthropy for the arts, the questions seem skewed towards trying to figure out how to cater to tech wealth, rather than thinking through art's role in the tech industry itself. This text surveys corporate residency programs in the Bay Area which exemplify how artists engage with this industry, and begins to sketch out possible implications—or potential—for the art infrastructure and its relationship with tech creativity.
Autodesk's Pier 9 Artist-in-Residence program is housed in the corporation's immense facility in Pier 9 along the waterfront in downtown San Francisco. Artists apply for four-month residencies at the space, which provides access to their workshop, a stipend, and the ability to work directly with the company's engineers on their projects. The program maintains a diverse pool of applicants who range from fashion designers to chefs, architects, and technologists as well as fine artists, who have access to Autodesk's high-end equipment, materials, and software, plus training and skillshare programs. Although it is not an explicit part of the program, the focus on "makers" over "fine artists" benefits Autodesk as well. The company launched Autodesk 123D in 2009 as free 3D modeling software designed for the general consumer, and they acquired the DIY info sharing website Instructables in 2011. The AIR program began at Instructables before their purchase by Autodesk, who developed it into a much larger initiative. All AIR residents are required to post their projects to the website, so there is a direct tie into the site's content. Envisioning how people create with their tools, or their competitor's tools, in a variety of scenarios is clearly a valuable asset to the company, especially as the mainstream culture moves into a maker culture.
Autodesk Pier 9 Workshop.
Autodesk's Pier 9 AIR Program Manager Vanessa Sigurdson describes the environment at Autodesk as an "office full of artists, not an office with artists" and they aim to have active interchange between the resident artists and engineers. Former resident artists Joseph DeLappe and Adrien Segal felt that the environment was very supportive and encouraging for visiting artists, with an "anything goes" atmosphere. DeLappe created rubber stamps for In Drones We Trust, while Segal used water consumption statistics to build a canyon-like bench. Both mentioned that the workshop helped to foster the company's culture of bustling, creative energy. Sigurdson referenced the Xerox PARC artist-in-residence (PAIR) program as an important inspiration for the residency, a project that similarly brought artists and technologists together in collaboration.

First Water to Tripoli Jupiter Woods London 2014
One recurring motif in your work of late has been your posters, sometimes A4 [letter-sized] but sometimes blown up larger, which usually depict one word or phrases, for example, "earth-cult," "sui iurus, or "we will protect the great river." These are presented in generic, unadorned fonts. Your press releases continue this aesthetic, combining these phrases to form a kind of poetry. Reading the text for your recent show at Jupiter Woods, in South London, we see couplings like "#archive #bank #invest / It is within our human capacity" and "how-to-disappear-in-the-anthropocene / the_love_that_sustains_all_matter.html."
Do these phrases create a taxonomy within your work? Do they give a clue to the way you form relations between different politics, geographies and affects? They have featured in a number of different exhibitions and projects over the last year. Might we say they form the skeleton, or the exoskeleton, of your practice?
The words are anchors or/and buoys in an operating system. When I employ them for the A4 page or a larger poster or banner they gesture towards an attempted isolation which I feel is terrifying for them&us. When words are large and isolated on the page they can be looked at for their surface forms and qualities (the curves and angles of the letters rather than the meaning the word points toward) They are also very poised, like templates, often in complete adherence to the prescriptions of google docs. They have to trust themselves to hold their form despite this uninvited and abrupt isolation. The individual poster is like a shield, armor, or veil. What lies beyond and before language as an orientation system?
Olsson, E. & Funk, P. (2009). "Agent-Based Monitoring using Case-Based Reasoning for Experience Reuse and Improved Quality." Journal of Quality in Maintenance Engineering, 15(2), 179-192.
"An Agent-based Legal Knowledge Acquisition Methodology for Agile Public Administration"1 is just one of the many hyper-dull papers on Agent-Based Modelling that require me to complete a course in antidepressants before reading. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors lend a certain numbness that cushions the deep boredom that comes with trying to come to grips with how logics at multiple scales work together to produce the performance of power in a world with computation at its center.
I have just finished writing a paper with Matthew Fuller from Goldsmiths (University of London2) about "Abstract Urbanism." This was my excuse for reading the aforementioned paper along with many other screeds, including Thomas C. Schelling's elaborately racist algorithm "Models of Segregation." Written in 1969—just four years after the Voting Rights Act gave a large percentage of African-Americans the right to vote--the paper posited a logic for interpreting micro/macro behaviours in segregated USA cities.3 Schelling's model worked by assigning black and white "agents" a space on a grid and a degree of happiness that is increased or decreased depending on the proximity they have to other black or white agents. Too little happiness, and they move toward their own type, creating discernible patterns of segregation.
The Blank Canvas of Networked Capital, or, Another Look at the Whiteboard
Image from dry-erase company ideapaint
When architects look at the built environment today, it can't help but be with profound misgivings. They're still working on projects, but the most ambitious designers are concentrating on building out, rather than building up, on moving people through interfaces rather than cities. Foundations and blueprints are replaced by schematics and entity relationship maps: architectures not of form, but of information. The fundamental unit of design isn't so much a site as it is a platform. And today, engineering a new society involves relentless ideation, a messianic vision, and— most crucially— a whiteboard.
"Whiteboarding," used as a verb, is a sort of lingua franca of the technologist— a new international style that reconstitutes the very assumptions of digital design, from interfaces and software diagrams to database structures. Though not new, this apparatus has recently become associated with a new kind of creative, a new type of thinker/tinkerer, and thus the whiteboard takes on new meaning vis-a-vis the economy, privilege, and power. Used and abused, it is a significant artifact of the present age of networked capital. If we were to construct a museum-like period room to represent the tech start-up of the new millennium, its walls would be whiteboards.

We Surpassed Our Kickstarter Goal for the Theresa Duncan CD-ROMs. Thank You!
Yesterday, we surpassed our goal of $20,000 in our first Kickstarter, to save and make playable the Theresa Duncan CD-ROMs. We want to take a moment to say a sincere thank you to all those who donated, promoted on social media, and wrote about the campaign. Now, we'll get to work. We aim to have the games online, free for all to play in any browser, by April 2015. This will also be when we host a public event at the New Museum and an online exhibition celebrating Duncan's work, contextualizing it within feminist gaming history. Furthermore, we'll be commissioning articles and educational materials to deepen public awareness of these CD-ROMs and the broader history of women gamemakers.

I remember when I first saw the videos you were making in 2012 while you were at Syracuse, and I recall feeling as though you were imitating a "bro net art aesthetic" as a way to critique it. For example, the trailer for your exhibition "Young Money" (above) includes a shot of you holding cash, a rotating pizza, and a floating rendering of a bong. But now, ironically, that has actually become your signature style and when I see others making videos in that vein, I think they are copying you. How do you feel your video style came to be, and now that you've been immersed in it for some years, why do you use the formal elements that you do?
I want to defensively say "I wasn't copying art bros; they're copying me!" but I really don't think there is any originality after the internet and in some sense we subconsciously or directly retain emotional and aesthetic affects of everything we see. I wasn't thinking it was particularly "bro-ey" style that informed works like Young Money...Before I discovered "postinternet" art I was watching a lot of amateur YouTube videomakers like Wendy Vainity, Epic Mealtime, and random videos of boys performing pranks and dares, so there were some definite influences from vloggers and pro-am producers. I noticed that people actually enjoyed performing "bro" ironically, and I wanted to channel that parodic pleasure. It can't and won't be about youth and fantasy forever though. I'm currently working on a 15-minute video about equality that bastardizes film and documentary tropes...
Bad videomaking seemed sincere, effortless and convenient for the net. My older videos were inspired by fan culture on YouTube and could be lumped in with screen-recorded videos, unboxings, and reviews made by young videogamers. A direct aesthetic influence was my friend Daniel Waldman who made videos for fun with Windows Movie Maker and posted every one of them on YouTube without caring whether people thought it was art or not.

I have my surface, aligment and sample lines created, but I cant get my sample lines profiles.
The grid apperas without data, it is like I have never selected a surface, but I did !
This is what I get , totally empty
This is probably due to not sampling the correct surfaces. If you click on one the the sample lines, in the contextual ribbon, select Sample More Sources. If your surfaces are in the left pane, add them to the right pane.
Is the surface set to display? The sections won't display if the surface is off.
The surface being set to No Display has no affect on the cross sections.
I could have sworn that used to be the case, maybe in a previous version, and by habit I still keep my surfaces visible.
If the No Display style has been set to not display in Section mode then it won't show up in section views.
My template has two surface styles. One is NoDisplay which means that the surface does not show in any mode. The other is NoPlanDisplay which is used for surfaces that I want to see in section views, or the corridor editor etc.

Overview of content related to 'social networks'
This page provides an overview of 1 article related to 'social networks'. Note that filters may be applied to display a sub-set of articles in this category (see FAQs on filtering for usage tips). Select this link to remove all filters.
A social network is a social structure made up of individuals (or organizations) called "nodes", which are tied (connected) by one or more specific types of interdependency, such as friendship, kinship, common interest, financial exchange, dislike, sexual relationships, or relationships of beliefs, knowledge or prestige. Social network analysis views social relationships in terms of network theory consisting of nodes and ties (also called edges, links, or connections). Nodes are the individual actors within the networks, and ties are the relationships between the actors. The resulting graph-based structures are often very complex. There can be many kinds of ties between the nodes. Research in a number of academic fields has shown that social networks operate on many levels, from families up to the level of nations, and play a critical role in determining the way problems are solved, organizations are run, and the degree to which individuals succeed in achieving their goals.

Are You In Love with a Criminal?
"The greatest crimes do not arise from a want of feeling for others, but from an over-sensibility for ourselves and an over-indulgence to our own desires." —Edmund Burke
Beware of Mr. Wonderful. Really? But isn't that the very thing that all women are looking for? A man who moves us, charms us, connects with us. Someone who is perfectly romantic, funny, rich, charming, friendly, outgoing, ambitious, says all the right things. Someone who loves kids and animals, pays attention to us, doesn't take us for granted. It's what all girls want.
Remember the saying, "if something seems too good to be true, it probably is?" Not that there aren't Mr. Wonderfuls out there in the world. I think there are. But they are categorically not perfect. Perfect isn't a particularly realistic expectation. So when you find yourself with a "perfect" man, raise a mental Red Flag and make sure your eyes are wide open. Consider that you need to learn more about him. Maybe there is a side to him that you haven't seen yet. Or maybe you haven't been willing to see it.
Too often, the very qualities that we look for in a man are especially true of a man who may be at best, dishonest, at worst, breaking the law. And by the time the truth about his character begins to unfold, we are already so deeply hooked and committed that even an otherwise educated, smart and savvy woman would turn a blind eye.
Most women don't set out looking to fall in love with someone who breaks the law. But we are susceptible because we yearn for that perfect relationship on some level. So we find ways to rationalize behavior in a man that might otherwise have raised an eyebrow. Because if we really look at the Red Flags for what they are, we lose the hope we had for building the perfect life with the perfect person.
What is a criminal?
For most of us, "criminal" conjures up images of violence and drugs. Gang bangers and drug dealers. Street crimes. Bank robberies. Murders. The stuff you see on TV. But there are other, less violent crimes that are just as devastating. These are often referred to as white-collar crimes. Think Bernie Madoff. Ken Lay, of Enron. These guys represent the very top of the white-collar food chain, but there are plenty just like them walking among us, creating havoc in less public ways. People like this get away with what they do for so long because they have some very compelling qualities. And the lesser-known guys are likely just as convincing and charismatic as the big boys.

I play active since 2000 in the club. It is called SV Oberbilk 1960. Parallel I play as a passive member of the club DSV 1854 in Oberkassel. My strengths lie in the opening. With the white stones I mostly play queen's pawn openings such as Colle and with the black pieces Caro-Kann or Slav.

Lamb Stew with Couscous 'en Papillote'
New Media Publishing / Photography: Flat Art Studios.com / Stylist: Abigail Donnelly
Provided by: Diane Forley
You can prepare these 'papillotes' a day in advance, so they are ready to bake and serve.
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 1/2 pounds lamb stew meat, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 onion, cut into 1/2-inch dice
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 11-ounce can chopped tomatoes
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 1 cup water
- 4 carrots, sliced 1/2-inch crosswise
- 2 zucchini, sliced 1-inch crosswise
- 1 cup cooked chickpeas
- 1 3/4 cups water
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups couscous
- Heat olive oil in a large saucepot over medium heat. Brown meat in two batches and transfer to a bowl. Add onions to sauce pot and stir occasionally until they begin to caramelize, about 10 minutes. Add lamb back into pot with spices. Cook two minutes and add tomatoes, chicken stock and water. Let simmer, covered, for 1 hour. Add carrots, zucchini and chickpeas and continue to cook uncovered until the vegetables are tender, about 25 minutes more.
- Meanwhile, bring water for couscous to a boil. Measure couscous into a medium mixing bowl. Pour boiling water over the couscous. Top with butter and salt. Stir to dissolve and cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let stand 5 minutes and mix with fork.
- To prepare packets, cut 4 parchment sheets into 12" x 18" rectangles. Working on a cutting board, fold each sheet in half to form 12" x 9" packet. Place 3/4 cup couscous in the crease at the middle. Using a slotted spoon place 1 to 1 1/2 cups of the lamb stew over the couscous. Begin folding packets from one end, creating pleats until reaching the end. Repeat with the remaining stew and couscous. Remaining broth can be strained and served on the side. Once the packets are filled, you may refrigerate them overnight or freeze them until ready to bake.
- To bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Transfer packets onto baking sheet. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until heated through. If reheated from frozen, bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes.

What Your Woman Secretly Wants In Bed
Part 2: Don't Rush Things — Enjoy The Ride
In reality, many men are often focused on the end goal: orgasm. Rushing to get to the climax like they're in a race, they often forget to be present and in the moment. Most women will grow bored of this. I'm not saying women don't like a quickie every now and then, but this approach will eventually kill the enjoyment of sex. And often, this betrays a lack of confidence in the man. A woman's intuition kicks in.
A woman wants to feel that she's in the hands of a stable, secure, present and focused man — not a guy who's racing to the finish line. This kind of juveline behavior leaves her feeling like less than a woman. There's also a lot of truth to all the hype about foreplay. Foreplay has less to do with specific sex acts, like kissing or oral sex, and much more to do with romance. The key to good foreplay is to relish every second of the experience, to be a little selfish (yes, selfish) but also present in the moment — and not rushing through it.
True foreplay includes inhaling her scent and touching every part of her body with your hands and mouth. True foreplay includes kissing lips, necks, ears and more. It involves undressing her, slowly enough, but not too slow, with just the right amount of force. Foreplay includes touching parts of her body you don't normally touch, inner thighs, lower stomach — and excluding the vagina until the very last moment. Touching close — but not right away — adds an element of tease to the act too. Massaging the feet while kissing her, touching her legs and thighs with passionate squeezes — all the while being focused and present.
In the end, confidence is key, not just in the way a man carries himself, but also in the way he makes her feel — like she's in the hands of someone who knows what he wants, knows what he's doing and gives her the security she needs to completely surrender. Bringing this to the bedroom can unleash her inner vixen. If she feels safe and secure, she is more likely to let her wild side come out too.

"We decided decades ago that in a world with three main foci of power and action--business, civil society and government--we would get the most done by working with the private sector," Lovins says. Along with Texas Instruments, RMI clients include Monsanto, Royal Dutch/Shell and the mining giant Anglo American, all considered the enemy by many environmental groups. RMI has made headlines recently by helping Wal-Mart with plans to double the fuel efficiency of its 6800-strong trucking fleet--among the biggest in the world--by 2015. The program could save the company upward of $300 million dollars per year and cut CO2 emissions by 690,000 tons annually. The 800-pound retail gorilla could end up causing the entire trucking industry to follow its lead.
Now Lovins has a green bull's-eye painted on the world's biggest buyer of oil, the Pentagon, which helped fund RMI's Winning the Oil Endgame, a book published in 2004 that painstakingly details a plan for weaning America off oil by the middle of this century, with private businesses taking the lead. Reducing oil consumption would not only save the U.S. Department of Defense tens of billions of dollars, it would also reduce the size of vulnerable fuel convoys.
Lovins says that just as military R&D created the Internet, GPS, and the jet and computer-chip industries, a new Pentagon effort may jumpstart a revolution in efficient automotive technologies.
At heart, however, Lovins remains a private-sector guy, a tinkerer. His pet project is the Hypercar referenced on his bumper sticker, which RMI proposed in 1991 as a midpriced vehicle that would get more than 100 mpg and inspire innovation among Detroit automakers. The car companies argued that the technologies involved--including feathery carbon-fiber bodies and hybrid powertrains--were too expensive for mass-market vehicles. Besides, gas was cheap.
Today, both carbon-fiber and hybrid power are gradually making their way into vehicles. And Lovins is more puzzled than frustrated when the corporate world moves at a slower pace than he'd like. No matter. Eventually he figures they'll have to come around, if only to keep up with resource-sipping competitors like Wal-Mart.
If the accountants don't lead the way, the engineers surely will. Resource-savvy design is just the thing to restore "the existential joy" that made them be-come engineers in the first place, Lovins says. "It isn't about Infectious repetitus--copying the last set of drawings--but about thinking through original and elegant design solutions."
Once you start seeing fixes rather than problems, he insists, there's no going back. It's just too much fun.

I have 6 primrose that I crossed with each other but where are the seeds. I pick the dead heads off but I can not find the seeds. Please help! They are the primroses usually found at grocery stores this time of year. Not sure of scientific name. If you want a picture because you do not know the kind I am talking about let me know. Also would appreciate the scientific name if you know.
Thanks Mike |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi Mike, Primrose flowers are different between plants. In the center of the flower they are like innie or outie belly buttons, lol, that is the best I know for a description. It is a very tiny difference. So you need to make sure you are using two plants with the different centers to get seeds. I'm not sure what you mean by picking the dead heads off. I would just let the flower be until the seeds are ripe. The link below has what the unripe seed pod looks like. Also on the site on another page is what the ripe pod and seeds look like. Remy |

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Phoebe!
Facts about Phoebe
- Breed: Chihuahua Mix
- Color: Red/Golden/Orange/Chestnut
- Age: Young
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
Phoebe's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Meet Phoebe, a 1 ½ yr old, 7 lb beautiful, golden brown girl. She has a short coat that doesn't shed much at all and is as soft as butter! She is very sweet, inquisitive, and energetic. Phoebe is a friendly little pup that plays well with other dogs; her foster mom has 2 other Chihuahuas that she plays with very well. She loves to play fetch, chase, tug of war, and spend time at the park or beach. She has met quite a few different dogs and kids in the neighborhood, and even a few cats; she is great around them all, and they all seem to like her too. She is very well-mannered and house trained. She loves to go for walks, car rides, or lay in your arms and nap. Phoebe is a lovely little girl that just wants to love and be loved.
To adopt Phoebe please fill out an application found on the web site, www.RescueAChi.com, or come to one of our adoption events (listed on the web site) to meet her in person!
Other Pets at Chihuahua Rescue of San Diego
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Phoebe, a San Diego Chihuahua dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua for sale in San Diego, or seeking a Chihuahua dog from a breeder in San Diego.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in San Diego already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a San Diego breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Chihuahua breeders who help with Chihuahua rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in San Diego paves the way for another one to be saved.

It was clean, quiet, and their free shuttle was super convenient. Breakfast was good also.
Great front desk person. Adequate breakfast.
The facilities were tired and needed freshening.
Scott at front desk was very professional and helpful. I was looking for a place near the airport for one night and with shuttle service to and from airport and not too expensive. The shuttle service also drove me to dinner and picked me up after.
Clientele....there was an aggressive panhandler roaming the grounds. Whether they were or not, some guests seemed to be living there semi-permanently. Although the rooms have been redone, the motel seems dated. The clock was difficult to figure out as to how to set it. There seemed to be people roaming around all evening.
There were no towels in my room. I called 4 times to ask for towels and got no answer.
close to the airport very comfortable bed free coffee non smoking-supposedly
some guests were smoking and none of the staff called them on it the entertainment system in the room required a special cord to connect your personal device, which signage said was available at the desk- the 2 girls looked at me as if I had 2 heads and could not find the cords
Everything was lovely I have nothing bad to say
Great location for next morning flight. Easy access to airport. Quiet room.
Welcome when first arrived. Good location. Good price. Room was well appointed, roomy and clean. Just right - bar, food, just the right size.
Had to leave after the weekend.
The restaurant within the hotel was great. Really good food and service. The lobby was also very welcoming, and the rooms, as well as the hotel overall, were very clean.
The bathroom was kind of nice.
Though I knew the price was cheap and the reviews said it was dirty I still decided to give it a try. I was as expected. The rooms was of a cheap motel. The rooms were very cheap looking (bedding material, smell) though I will say randomly the bathroom was nice. Needless to say I wasted my money because I didn't stay there and ended up getting a room at another nicer hotel. Less ion learned, when its too good to be true it probably is.
Room was better than many i have had in the area. Staff was very helpful and friendly.
I loved that the room was set up with a living space and full kitchenette.
I did not like that our room had an adjoining door with the people next door. There were kids in the room who were loud and rowdy and who several times attempted to open the door. We also missed the fact that there was no restaurant so no room service.
The location was great. Room was nice and cozy.
a few cracks in the walls, some of the interior decor needs to be updated. wall paper in the halls were falling off and the ice machine vending area on the 2nd floor was empty. had to go to another floor for ice.
Very little parking in the front. The back had plenty but the lot was icy and there was no ramp with which to roll my luggage, only icy and dangerous stairs to climb. The in-room dining was horrific (I made the mistake of ordering breakfast one morning).
Always clean
No complimentary coffee...was told by the front desk clerk no coffee due to it being Christmas Eve.
The tv in the room was nice and I had no problems connecting to Wifi.
The bathroom was not clean at all. There were some sort of stains on the tub and the floor. The toilet seat had a burn mark on the top. Also the room smelled musty when I first walked in. This is an older hotel and needs some major upgrades. I could barely get the door open when I got to the room. It was practically stuck. Had to force it open.
Clean, convenient, with friendly staff. Good value for the money. The internet was easy to access and fast. I was able to print boarding passes in the lobby.
I had to call the front desk to get the room made up (at 3 pm).
Everything about this hotel was excellent.The rooms were very spacious and comfortable
Security could have been better, but I enjoyed myself. Also, airport's fault...sent me to wrong Marriott. But, I got there 3 hrs after my plane landed. BWI Marriott was on my confirmation (nothing said Courtyard). Bed was comfortable! Check out time is nice:)
Very cleanrooms, nice pool and gym facilities. Bartender using hands in condiments after blowing nose and eating a sandwich. Server in restaurant used hand too. Very gross!
Pool area large indoor, nice area.
The staff was great. Very friendly and polite. Very good food in the restaurant. The availability of the shuttle to take people to and from the airport or to the metro stop was a big plus.
great room with all the amenities
The rooms were noisy. I was able to hear doors slamming, toilets flushing and people talking during the night. I could heat the person in the room next to me talking between 4 and 5 AM.
The facilities were good.
Here's why:
We're not the seller At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time? Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.
More questions or if you have a bad price to report to us Please send us an email and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.
