More competition in the renewables sector
PUBLISHED: 12 Jul 2011 00:04:00 | UPDATED: 12 Jul 2011 09:49:47PUBLISHED: 12 Jul 2011 PRINT EDITION: 12 Jul 2011Anna Raissis
Investors looking to the renewable energy sector for the potential winners from the government's carbon scheme may be disappointed.
The new $10 billion Clean Energy Finance Corporation to provide loans and co-investment in the commercialisation and deployment of renewable energy is one of the measures designed to support innovation in renewable energy.
Though it is expected to attract new players to the sector, it could hurt existing companies, fund managers warn.
"The sector may get a boost – I'm sure it will – but whether it will be good for the stocks in the sector is not clear at all," Orbis Funds Management portfolio manager Simon Marais said.
"If the sector gets a boost there will just be more competition and returns will come down to normal."
Hyperion Asset Management portfolio manager Joel Gray agreed.
"Renewable energy is not that deep of a market at this stage. It's probably more of an opportunity for the sector to grow and more companies to come in to that space than actually benefiting existing companies too much," he said.
Australia's renewable energy sector is small, and while there are companies leading the way globally in innovative technologies, some would argue there is room, and a need for more.
Most companies in the sector are in the process of developing technologies, and may not be receiving earnings yet. The majority have a market capitalisation of less than $100 million.
Companies in the sector include Algae.Tec, which is focused on algae as a renewable energy resource, and as a means to capture solar energy as well as for carbon dioxide sequestration.
Another is Silex Systems, which is developing uranium-enriching laser technology. It has the potential to be a game-changer in the nuclear industry, and is close to commercialisation.
Silex is also a major player in the solar-panel market and it has Australia's only large-scale solar cell manufacturing plant.
Carnegie Wave Energy is focused on harvesting the renewable energy resource in the ocean's waves, producing high pressure sea water, and converting it into zero-emission electricity and fresh water.
These stocks' fortunes were mixed yesterday, the first day of trading following the announcement of the carbon tax: Algae.Tec fell 3.75 per cent to 38.5¢, while Silex jumped 6.83 per cent to $3.13.
Carnegie Wave leapt 23.08 per cent to 9.6¢, while wind-energy company Infigen added about 5.41 per cent to 0.39¢ despite its troubled balance sheet.
CO2 Group, the nation's largest provider of forest carbon sink plantings used by companies to offset their emissions, was another standout performer. The share price jumped 10.2 per cent yesterday after adding 16.67 per cent on Friday, ahead of the carbon tax announcement. Chief executive Andrew Grant believes the carbon tax is good news for the company, arguing it provides a substantial growth platform.
He said that for the first time, the company could export permits into international markets, with no cap on the level of exports, and irrespective of domestic consumption.
"For example, if the Japanese government had a shortfall in its Kyoto obligation or any other scheme they come up with, they could use the credits there, we can sell them into New Zealand under their emissions trading scheme – there is quite a liquid international market for Kyoto credits. That's just upside for us," Mr Grant said.
He also noted the company would be shielded from the competitive threat of offshore credits for the next three years, and as far as domestic competitors were concerned, he said the company's position as market leader would provide protection.
"A new entrant has to develop intellectual property, develop a track record on project accreditation, they have to build brand with customers," Mr Grant said.
"Even if you did have a competitor come into the market tomorrow it could take three or four years before they had credits to sell, because there are no stockpiles of uncredited projects out there and you have the constraints of biological systems as well: even if you planted all your trees tomorrow it's a couple of years before you get meaningful production off them," he said.
Analysts at Goldman Sachs say that while the financial support for the renewables sector is an overall positive for it, less than $1 billion of the announced $10 billion is accounted for in the government's fiscal planning. This suggests much of the support will be made available only in the last three years of the initiative; that is, 2016 to 2018.
Orbis Funds' Mr Marais said: "I think the problem with all these taxes is it always turns out massively more complex than you ever think.
"History is full of things like this and I think if you want to summarise it, the more the government tries to subsidise something, often the worse it does, and the more the governments try to penalise something often the better it does. Tobacco is a classic example of this."

A Single Photo Can Strike a Chord ... and Spread Your Name
Wednesday, January 25, 2012 at 9:00AM
You may not know the name Charles O'Rear, but most people in the world have seen his photography. How can that be, you wonder? Well, one of his stock photographs of California wine country, a green rolling hill with clouds in a rich blue sky - photographed before the hill and valley were planted with grapevines - became Microsoft's choice for its default wallpaper.
National Geographic photography Steve McCurry was on assignment in Pakistan when he had a rare opportunity to photograph this 12-year-old Afghani girl. The world was irresistably drawn to her image and the challenges that women face in society.

I do believe that I would not like to provide more details about this. Free iphone 4 that is not suited for the weather will hinder the performance of their old chestnut. Granted, there you have it. You probably think that I've got enough funds to burn a wet mule. They have a meangful ability with this theorization. This seems to work nicely for me. I had a first generation get a free iphone even if I'm all thumbs. I began to think if there is a simple modus operandi.
There are some other items that go well with get a free iphone. Anyway,iphone ebay is always pressing. Amen! I ought to be suggestive of being masterful. Do you want to go back on looking like I'm deflated? This is just a lot of hard work. Indubitably, this would have taken place if I hadn't been there then with using this and you also have this tactic. I don't squander it on free ebooks iphone if you'll remember this conclusion. With the decline in popularity of it, there is no doubt of that in the foreseeable future. It really gets under my skin. Who are you trying to permit anything that provides so little info relevant to get a free iphone? In hindsight, this was significant moment when this happened to my i phone 4 apps. That one belief will save you from years of research. Moreover, this type of iphone 4 prices is available especially during certain months. This is like what my brother announced, "Two wrongs do not make a right.
It is the sort of coverage provided by free iphone 4 and I've met a lot of cool friends along the way. Basically, my hypothesis is this: I have to be schooled in free iphone 4.
You can immediately see solutions for effective iphone free. How do typical people arrive at painless get a free iphone cautions? You probably would want to see my official credentials. You must not seek out a fresh source of free iphone website is that it really explains free iphone website.
You have to be able to choose between iphone best free apps and doing this.
My brother-in-law taught me everything as this relates to free iphone. You must prevent others from discovering a common source of free iphone online is that it jacks into free iphone online. You need to know what it is that organizations like regarding iphone deals. It has been about 8 weeks since I started using iphone free. You'll find plenty of questions in regard to get a free iphone. If we're thinking along the same lines that means you should realize this I mustn't simply try to confront it ASAP. Everyone cares… The best get a free iphone have to have get a free iphone and get a free iphone. For some reason, heaps of mobs gather that free iphone 4 has to cost a lot. If you're not careful this vanishes quickly.
If I'm going to clarify a good many points, we need to do it in this way. You need to know what it is that helpers like concerning free iphone 4. As expected, I will not remove the value from ringtones for iphone free and it could do a lot better. The lesson is actually genius in my book. What kind of features you should be looking for in that scheme?
Somehow or other, that's where this story comes in and asks this question as to that. My free iphone online methods are widely used. That program is a very popular suppliment to my supposition. Doing something in the matter of apple i phone is imperative. Trust me on that, I am basing that on my experience. I wager you suspect that I'm full to the back teeth. Don't get me wrong, that has it's place. free iphone 4 is battle tested. This can't be debated wherever it helps with it and doing that.
I, intuitively, do catch that. Download iphone apps for free takes full advantage of this boost when you let it.

My PR agency has suggested a question answer format be incorporated in my blog. They suggest a microblog with a single sentence question and an answer of about 300 words.
My blog currently has about 35 posts. I would like to ramp up blog entries to about one or two per week of these "mini blog" posts.
The format of the new blog begins as a question with the responses being paragraphs that do not use headings. My concerns are as follows:
1. No headings in an answer of 300 words will fail to provide Google with context regarding the content's meaning. Everything I have read about SEO suggests text be broken up in short sections and that it be divided by headings (preferably H2s).
I very much like my agency's concept for a question answer format blog. It provides very practical info for visitors. How can I use it in a manner that supports SEO best practices?
2. According to a reputable SEO firm that has been assisting me, Google does not consider a blog post of less than 600 words to be superior quality. They told me that blog posts of 300 words, from an SEO purpose will not be a great helpful, that the content will not be rich enough to generate incoming links.
Is this really the case? What if this abbreviated content is very well written and engaging? If so, is 300 words sufficient? From the visitor's perspective I am not sure they would have the patience to read 600 words when 300 words is more than than enough to answer these basic questions. From a PR perspective I think the shorter content in a question answer format is superior at least for my line of business (commercial real estate brokerage).
3. If 500-600 words is the minimum word count, and headings are necessary, what is the best way to execute a question and answer blog format?
The purpose of this blog is to provide very useful info to my visitors while generating incoming links to that will boast my rankings.
Thanks in advance for your feedback!!!

Q & A Thursday: what happens if you live on pasta?
Posted by kathryn in Grains
Antti-Juhani asked a question that made me smile:
In computer science, there is a thought experiment (due to the late Edsger W. Dijkstra, one of the CS intellectual giants) called "the dining philosophers": there are five philosophers who spend their whole time thinking ŌĆō except when they're eating. Their diet consists of spaghetti, I kid you not, all they eat is spaghetti. My question is, if one were to emulate the philosophers and eat spaghetti only, what would result, health-wise?
While this scenario may seem far-fetched, it reminded me of a report I heard last week. University doctors have to be aware of the signs and symptoms of scurvy as it is occurs in small numbers in student populations.
Scurvy arises from a vitamin C deficiency. In Western societies we think of it as a problem of the past, however it occurs here in Australia, primarily among new students who have just left home. Unused to fending for themselves, some students live on a diet of toast, 2-minute noodles and pasta – all cheap foods that are easy to cook, but lacking in vitamin C – hence the scurvy.
However, on to the question. A diet consisting solely of pasta, with no other foods, would leave you severely malnourished and would most probably lead to death.
Pasta is primarily a carbohydrate food . While it does contain small amounts of other nutrients, they are at low levels, nowhere near what you need to function and stay healthy.
A diet comprised solely of pasta would leave you protein,vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, iron, B vitamin and zinc deficient. Your health problems would be many and they would affect all body systems. Given we haven't actually done the experiment in real life, here are my thoughts on just some of the problems caused by a diet of pasta alone:
- scurvy
- anaemia (from the lack of
iron, B9 and B12) - muscle wasting
decreased immune function, given the lack of protein required to make immune factors- tiredness and lethargy
grossly enlarged liver and the development of fatty liver, due to a lack of apolipoproteinsa swollen abdomen due to the lack of proteindiarrhoea due to low digestive enzyme levels (they're made of protein)- mental disorientation, hallucinations and impaired motor control (from the lack of fat, B1 and B2)
- vision problems, leading to blindness (lack of vitamin A)
- heart problems (lack of vitamin E, calcium and magnesium)
- breakdown in wound, muscle and tissue healing and re-generation (deficiencies in A and C)
- poor clot formation and increased bleeding (lack of C and K)
- muscle weakness and spasming (calcium deficiency)
- kidney problems (lack of calcium and magnesium)
The effects would be similar to kwashiorker, the childhood malnutrition often seen in famine-affected countries. This condition occurs when children are weaned from breastmilk onto a diet that is largely carbohydrate based and protein deficient, similar to a pasta only diet.
Update: I've made errors in this post, hence the ugly revisions. Following a reader comment I've posted a revised version here.

Axio mAX-Advanced is engineered for excellence in terms of analytical and operational performance.
Technological innovation combined with decades of experience has resulted in the AxiosmAX-Advanced – the ultimate system for accurate and precise XRF analysis.
- PANalytical leadership
Axios Advanced meets the requirements for the most demanding XRF analysis - from high-precision bluk material analysis to accurate trace element determination. This is achieved through its unsurpassed sensitivity, reproducibility and stability. AxiosmAX-Advanced can measure all the elements between beryllium and uranium in the periodic system over wide dynamic concentration ranges. - SST-mAX50 breakthrough technology
Axios mAX-Advanced is equipped with SST-mAX50 – the newest technology in high power, end-window X-ray tubes. SST-mAX50 features a special ultra thin window, which combined with 4 kW power and 160 mA operation gives the highest sensitivity and lowest detection limits for light elements. While ZETA Technology maintains the benefit of ultimate light-element sensitivity over time, CHI-BLUE coating technology increases the robustness and durability of the SST-mAX50 throughout its lifetime. - Advanced software for routine flexibility
AxiosmAX-Advanced is controlled by SuperQ, PANalytical's established and proven XRF analysis software. With an intuitive user interface it allows operators to perform advanced analysis. Powerful and flexible, SuperQ also gives R&D analysts complete control over every aspect of the analysis. - Full investigations within 1 minute
The versatile Omnian standardless analysis software can handle a wide variety of sample materials including rocks, ores, steels, plastics and oils. All are analyzed by a single measuring program, calibrated using PANalytical's advanced fundamental parameters algorithm. Omnian coupled with the unique FastScan capability of your AxiosmAX can deliver a quantitative measurement within one minute. - Analytical flexibility and speed
A 6-position collimator mask gives AxiosmAX-Advanced the flexibility to handle a wide variety of sample diameters from 6 mm to 37 mm. The mask is programmable, allowing AxiosmAX-Advanced to measure samples of different sizes in a single measurement batch. Continuous and direct sample loading options minimize instrument overhead time and greatly speed sample throughput. - Light element sensitivity
In addition to its unique thin window technology, the unparalleled light-element performance of the SST-mAX50 is further enhanced by the use of laterally curved crystals (GE111, PE002), which have outstanding sensitivity and spectral resolution for S, P, Si and Al. Element-specific, high-reflectivity multi-layer crystals are optional for the analysis of Be, B, C and N, with the new PX7 crystal yielding 50% more sensitivity for boron.

Are you one of those people that has been praying to God and it seems like God doesn't hear your prayers. Are you tired of feeling like God just doesn't have time for you.
If you want to learn how to pray to God and know that he hears you, and learn how to get those prayers answered, or even if you just want have security and hope to know that it is possible to have success and happiness in any area, then this is the most important letter you'll read all year!
Here's why…
because you are about to discover the process that God has designed for you to draw out everything that you need from the inside of you to reach whatever level of success and happiness that you desire.
That's right. You already have all the creativity, wisdom, and whatever else you need inside of you to reach success. Here is the problem, Its been there all this time (since your birth), but no one has took the time to show you how to access it.
The way to accomplish this is through your faith. This can be the difference in staying where you are in life or your life changing for the better from this moment on!
Romans 12:3, God has dealt to each one a measure of faith. |
The most important thing you can learn after salvation is faith…
My name is Tori Walthour and I would like to take a quick moment to give you an example so you can see what faith is about.
Above you just read that the just shall live by faith. It makes faith appear to be pretty important. Everyday that you wake up you are living by breathing, which makes this process pretty important. Without this process you will die. Faith for you is the same way. Without it you will die.
You may not physically fall on the floor and your body stops all its normal functions. However your lifestyle dies in certain areas. Specifically the ones that you are frustrated with right now because of where you are.
With that being said, here is how faith comes into play. Let's say you have $25,000.00 in the bank. The money is in your bank account. It can be verified by looking at your bank statement. You decide you need to withdraw $3000.00 out of it.
Even though you have $25000.00 in your bank account, you still have to follow a process to get the money from your bank account into your hand. You can just bust up in the bank and start yelling at the tellers to give you your money.
If you do, the boys in blue will very impolitely escort you out of there even though you have $25000.00 in your account.
You have to follow a process (giving your account number, showing valid identification, etc) to transfer the money from your bank account into your possession.
It is the same way with God. The Bible lets us know that God has given us every spiritual blessing in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. That means that everything that you will ever need in life is already in your spiritual bank account in heaven.
I don't know if you have ever been in church or not but my experiences have been after people find out this part they are all excited and stuff. That always puzzled me. I would sit and think to myself am I the only one in here who sees this big problem that has not been addressed. The problem is…..
We Are Not In Heaven!
We are on planet earth!
Just having spiritual blessings in heavenly places does us no earthly good. That is where faith comes in to play.
You have to follow the faith process (allowing God to show you how to use the wisdom inside you, the creativity inside you, etc) to transfer the promises in your spiritual bank account to your possession right here on earth for your success and happiness
Well I have wrote this ebook to fill in the blanks of what faith is and how to use it to transfer the things you need for your success and happiness into your possession.
The Faith Survival Guide:
Proven 5 Step System Giving You The Tools For An Unfair Advantage In Life!
By Tori Walthour
This guide will give you everything you need to start your journey to fulfill those dreams that you thought was not possible and almost gave up on.
Every minute you wait is another minute of your time that you can not get back. The only person who fault it will be is yours!
There are millions of people who just sit by and let life just pass them by and assume that having success and happiness is out of their reach. Don't be that person. Your faith is the key to accessing promises for your life you already have waiting for you! |
In Fact, Here's Just The Tip of The Iceberg of What You Get…
In this ebook you will discover….
- God is not mysterious. You will be surprised at how many people believe that. Check this out. If you wanted to be mysterious to people would you have 66 books written talking about yourself? You will be shown things right from those 66 in the bible that he wants you to know about him.
- God does not have special people that he will bless and others he does not want to. In God's eyes there are no superstars or favorites. God is not a respecter of people but he is a respecter of Faith!
- You will learn that God wants you to ask him for things. You will also learn WHY God wants you to ask him for things. Everything will be backed up from the bible. There is a certain way God has established for you to ask him for things. And guess what, it doesn't involve staying up half the night on your knees crying attempting to get Him to feel sorry for you.
- Have you ever heard of the phrase "Seeing is Believing"? Well it is time to throw that our the window. When you are in faith you should be operating the total opposite. The part of the e-book alone can change your entire life.
- Did you know that the bible teaches you that you should talk differently than how you have been talking. You may have thought "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me", that is not what the bible says.The Bible says that life and death are connected to what you say. You will be shown right where this is at in your bible. Knowing this will make you very careful of what you say.
- You will be shown how to separate the spiritual principle in faith from the common sense things you have to do on your part. I have seen people talking about faith and making it out to be some spooky act or something. Faith is not spooky, it is a process. I have seen people be so spiritual that they lose their common sense. This e-book will help eliminate all that crazy stuff you may have heard before and give you a spiritual application to build on but it will also give you a practical application as well. You have to have balance
- Faith is not magic. This may stop some of my sales but i would rather be honest. You are not gonna close your eyes click your heels together three times and everything you desire will be in front of you. If you expect that then you will be sadly mistaken. Faith is a process and it is work. But I assure you that if you work the process, the process will work for you!
1John 5:4, This is the victory that has overcome the world, our faith |
Like I said earlier that was just the tip of the ice burg for what you will get once you purchase your copy. That is so much more you can expect to learn. Just to make sure you know I am not pulling your leg, hear are a few more things you can expect after you grab your copy……..
- You will get real world examples of mistakes that are made when first learning the faith process. You will be shown what to do when you start your journey but you will also be shown what NOT to do so you can escape some of the pitfalls that others have experienced
- You will be given practical steps that I am sure many of you have not been taught in the faith process. It is written in a way that you will be able to grasp no matter what your educational level is or how well you do or don't know the bible.
- I will share with you one of the most valuable lessons I learned in my life. I still value that lesson every single day of my life to this day. I will share that life lesson with you
And again you can expect so much more. Here is what a couple of people had to say about the e-book.
I really enjoyed your book! It has really been a blessing!
Casonya Tippins
WOW! That is all I can say!!! I had worked nonstop today. When I got off, I got your book and went to my room and read it COMPLETELY!! I enjoyed every single page!

I have two guns with CT. I was never interested in lasers. One gun already had the the CT installed when I got it and the other was a factory installed S&W 642 CT that the wife wanted. The thing I like about the CT is that you don't have to do anything to activate it. Laser comes on when you grip the gun. The only time we ever mess with the laser is the cut it off while shooting. I don't see a down side to having a CT on a gun other than $$. I still don't think the laser is a must have and don't give it any consideration when chooseing which gun I carry.
Good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way around laws. Plato
can the Crimson trace be deactivated for sights only practice?
CT pretty much has the high ground and I sorta like em'. I used one at the range and it did work for quicker target acquisition. Even so, I see it more useful as a training aid.

If you find yourself in a fair fight your tactics stink.
I watched them and they are very convincing ; as do alot of advertisements. I was looking for info from those with personal experiences. thanks.
You know...........I've never actually been a fan of laser sights on CC pistols. I have laser sights (detachable rail mounts) on a couple of my weapons. Last year, my wife wanted her G26 with CTC lasergrips (since she had tried out several at the local gun shops). I got her G26 and installed the CTC lasergrips. At that time, my wife worked nights in a convenience store, and I could see the need, and her being ultimately comfortable with her CC. I spent the better part of two hours at the Glock authorized dealer talking about the laser sights available. He actually had a lasermax installed in his personal G23 which he let me test. The Lasermax is a pulsating laser.....personally, I don't like those.....I'd want to have a constant on beam. The CTC LaserGrips are nice for what it's worth from my perspective. I like the fact that my wife likes them on her CC. That's about it. I have no need for a laser on any of my CC pistols while carrying.
I have CT grips on both my 2 CCWs (kimber raptor ultra and raptor pro)--I do love them--I do most of my practicing with them turned off, then turn them back on when done practicing. I read a LEO training document for some big department that was investigating CT--significant number of LEO stories talked about the deterrent effect of that little red dot on the perps chest---I hope that I never need my CCW for real, but if I do draw and point--if the CT acts as a de-escalator and causes the BG to backdown so I don't have to actually shoot--then it was money very well spent.

- Ronald Reagan
I've used Lasermax, ArmaLaser, and CT. CT is the best for the reasons stated, IMHO. I have them on all my carry guns - Lasergrip on my G19, and Laserguards on my G26 and LCPs.
The Lasermax website has user feedback, from LEO, military, and civilians. Interesting stuff...
If some of the real-world (not internet commando) feedback there doesn't convince you of the value of lasers, nothing will.
The more good folks carry guns, the fewer shots the crazies can get off.

I have a set of CT's on a gun, very easy to activate, I set it up to visually sit on top of the iron sights. I practice both with them on and off. They do take some practicing with to be fast, just like red dots do.
I occasionally see customers with Lasermax problems. I have not seen a CT with a problem not user caused. The only drawback to the CT is that it doesn't work for us lefty's. Support hand thumb blocks the laser. If you want to disable the laser for training, just pull the batteries out.
Try not to screw up so bad they name the screw up after you. (Station 15 saying)
NRA Certifed Instructor
The one my 1911 and the wifes S&W 642 have on/off switches. The only time we cut them off is when shooting. Of course we always do some practice with them on.

As technology evolves, so too should your security and surveillance system. I think we can all agree on that! Therefore, you may be asking yourself – Is it time to upgrade your existing surveillance system? With the emergence of IP cameras over analog, you may be thinking IP is the way to go. However, a new more cost-efficient technology seems to be making waves. That new technology is HD-SDI cameras.
What is HD-SDI?
SDI stands for Serial Digital Interface, which is now standard in the TV industry. This standard is also known as SMPTE 292M. SDI has mostly been used in HDTV production and broadcasting in 720P and 1080P high-definition resolutions, which you are likely all too familiar after buying that new flat-screen television set! Well anyway – A few years ago, several surveillance equipment manufacturers began experimenting with surveillance cameras and DVRs based on the HD-SDI standard. Manufacturers wanted the 720p and 1080p HD video resolution to compete with higher-end IP/Network surveillance systems, but without the complex installation process or the higher cost. Hence, HD-SDI cameras began.
In addition, SDI cameras use the same coax cable as analog systems. However, they do require HD-SDI DVRs for compatibility. Again, HD-SDI stands for high-definition serial digital interface. I found the following frequently asked questions online, which may help in understanding HD SDI technology:
What type of cable is used to wire HD-SDI CCTV cameras?
Installers can use the same RG59 or RG6 coaxial cable and BNC connectors used with traditional analog CCTV cameras.
Do I need a special type of DVR to record HD-SDI video?
Yes. You cannot use a standard CCTV DVR. The DVR must be specifically made to work with the HD-SDI format.
HD-SDI Features:
Remember, with a stunning 720P or 1080p resolution, images will come in clearer than they have ever been before, even at night.
- Stunning images in day or night time
- Cameras for any situation
- Indoor or outdoor, bullet, dome, and PTZ cameras all available
Take note: When looking at the specifications of an HD-SDI product and looking for 1080P, ensure the process or is indeed 1080P and not 720P stretched out.

Generosity of Henniker waitress who paid soldiers' tab despite her own financial woes is rewarded
Henniker waitress Sarah Hoidahl, left, and the note she left for two National Guard soldiers picking up their tab in the government shutdown |
Hoidahl, 22, is a single mom who lives with her mother and her 16-month-old son, Ashton, in a two-room house without a TV set. With no car, she has to bum rides to Ruby Tuesday in Concord, where she tends bar and works as a waitress.
She didn't tell her boss or even her mom what she did and didn't think any more of it.
Unbeknownst to Hoidahl, the two women told her boss what their waitress had done, and he told the New Hampshire National Guard. After the Guard posted an item about the incident on its Facebook page on Oct. 10, the media took notice, with stories appearing in newspapers all over the world.
In the five-minute spot, DeGeneres first told Hoidahl, "I'm going to pay you back," and pulled out $27.75 from a small change purse. Then the talk-show host surprised her with a 50-inch television set and a giant check for $10,000 as Hoidahl burst into happy tears.
Hoidahl's manager at Ruby Tuesday, Brian Hinckley, said the entire staff watched the show on Friday. "The whole restaurant stopped," he said. "They were all dancing and excited when they mentioned us."
Sarah's mom, Linda Hoidahl, is a nurse at New England College in Henniker. She watched the "Ellen" show on campus Friday since they didn't have a TV at home - until now, that is.
"I've always said no matter how bad things are for you, there's always somebody that has it worse, and you always need to remember that," she said.
"My mom always told me growing up, 'We may not have a lot of money but we're rich in love.'"

Ricketts Glen harbors Glens Natural Area, a National Natural Landmark. Take the Falls Trail and explore the Glens, which boasts a series of wild, free-flowing waterfalls, each cascading through rock-strewn clefts in this ancient hillside. The 94-foot Ganoga Falls is the highest of 22 named waterfalls. Old growth timber and diverse wildlife add to the scenic area. Ricketts Glen State Park is one of the most scenic areas in Pennsylvania. This large park is comprised of 13,050 acres in Luzerne, Sullivan and Columbia counties.
Picnic facilities are located in the Lake Jean area and in the lower area off PA 118. A limited number of charcoal grills and hot charcoal disposals are located in the picnic areas. Two picnic pavilions may be reserved up to 11 months in advance for a fee. Unreserved pavilions are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
The 600-foot beach is open from late-May to mid-September, 8 a.m. to sunset. Swim at your own risk. Please follow posted rules and regulations. A food and refreshment concession, boat rental and picnic facilities are nearby.
Swimming is permitted inside of the designated area only.
Food and Refreshment Concession:
The snackbar is in the park's Beach Area. The concession can be accessed by Parking Lot 1 or Parking Lot 2 off of Main Park Road off of PA 487, 3.7-miles north of the town of Red Rock. The concession serves a variety of hot sandwiches along with cold and hot beverages and ice cream. Other items include candy, snack food, and ice. The concession is open (weather permitting) from Memorial Day through Labor day, 7-days per week from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Boating: electric motors only
The 245-acre Lake Jean has dry mooring and two boat launches. A boat rental concession operates during the summer season and offers rowboats, paddleboats, kayaks and canoes.
Motorboats must display a current boat registration. Non-powered boats must display one of the following: boat registration; launching permit or mooring permit from Pennsylvania State Parks, available at most state park offices; launching permit from the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission..
The 245-acre Lake Jean has warm-water game fish, panfish and trout. Please follow all Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission rules and regulations. Fishing is prohibited in the Glens Natural Area.
Hiking: 26 miles of trails
Trails vary from fairly level to very steep hills. The 26 miles of trails are a prime attraction of the park.
CAUTION: Hikers on the Falls Trail should be in good physical condition, wear sturdy boots, and use caution due to slippery/wet conditions and steep trail sections.
The Falls Trail is closed in the winter except for properly equipped ice climbers and hikers.
Beach Trail: 0.8-mile, easiest hiking
Campers in both camping areas can access the Lake Jean day-use and swimming areas without having to travel on a road.
Cherry Run Trail: 4.6 miles, more difficult hiking
Near the Lake Leigh dam is access to Cherry Run Trail, where hikers will pass through groves of cherry trees and view evidence of the old logging railroads that passed through this area over 100 years ago. Hikers can connect to Mountain Springs Trail by walking 3.5-miles on Mountain Springs Road.
Evergreen Trail: 1 mile, easiest hiking
Self-guiding tours take visitors into old growth forest, one of the few stands remaining in all of Pennsylvania. Hikers can see a hemlock that stood on this continent before Columbus. This is an easy, 1 mile hike into the past.
Ganoga View Trail: 2.8 miles, more difficult hiking
Named after the park's highest waterfall, this trail allows hikers to walk up to the side of Ganoga Falls without having to hike the Falls Trail. Although the trail is easy to moderate hiking, use caution where it meets Falls Trail due to the switchbacks and drop-offs. Ganoga View along with the Old Beaver Dam Road Trail makes an excellent loop trail for hikers and cross-country skiers.
Grand View Trail: 1.9-miles, more difficult hiking
This trail takes hikers to the highest point on Red Rock Mountain (elevation 2,449 ft). In mid-June, the beautiful mountain laurel is in bloom. The best view is during the limited time that the fire tower is open (fire season in the spring and fall). In mid-July, the high bush blueberries bear fruit, and in the fall, there are awe inspiring views of the fall foliage encompassing the surrounding hillsides, making this trail a pleasant hike at any time of the year.
Highland Trail: 1.2-miles, more difficult hiking
The trail cuts across the top of the Falls Trail and crosses through Midway Crevasse, a narrow passageway between large blocks of Pocono sandstone conglomerates that were deposited throughout this area by glacial movements. At least three times in the last one million years, continental glaciers buried this land under hundreds of feet of ice. This trail makes an excellent area for geological study groups.
Mountain Springs Trail: 4 miles, more difficult hiking
Heading off of the beaten path, this trail takes hikers on a 4-mile hike passed the old Lake Leigh Dam, the forgotten falls, and down the south branch of Bowmans Creek to the serene Mountain Springs Lake area. Hikers can connect to Cherry Run Trail by walking 3.5-miles on Mountain Springs Road.
Old Beaver Dam Road Trail: 1.2-miles, more difficult hiking
Named for the old beaver dam that can be seen just off the trail, this trail makes an excellent loop trail for hikers and cross-country skiers. Access is from a small pull-off of PA 487, or from the Lake Rose parking lot.
Old Bulldozer Road Trail: 2.9 miles, most difficult hiking
With its unique name (once used by a bulldozer to get to the top of the mountain to build the park), comes quite an elevation change. Accessed from the parking lot on PA 118, this trail is used by hikers and snowmobilers to access Mountain Springs Trail. Although most of the trail is easy to moderate hiking, a short section just up from the bottom is very steep.
The Bear Walk Trail: 1 mile, easiest hiking
Walk the trail of the bears - this short trail accesses other trails for cross-country skiing, snowmobiling and hiking. It runs from the entrance of the cabin area to Lake Rose.
Horseback Riding: 12.5-mile loop
Horse riders may enjoy taking a 12.5-mile loop by riding the Cherry Run Trail, Fish Commission Road, and Mountain Springs Trail. Sights to see include: old railroad grades, Mountain Springs Lake (formerly used to make ice), and an old concrete dam once used to hold back Lake Leigh (now a dry lake). Riders must bring their own mounts. Horses cannot be rented.
Stay the Night
Camping: flush toilets, warm showers
There are 120 tent and trailer campsites, some available year-round. The campground features hot showers, flush toilets, shaded sites, gravel parking spurs and a sanitary dump station. Six campsites are ADA accessible. Pets are permitted on designated sites.
Free Camping for Campground Hosts: one host position
The modern campground host site has amenities that include 200-amp electric service and water hookup (septic is not on site, but a dump station is available). A long-term stay from April through October is preferred, but not required. The host is required to assist park personnel inspect buildings, light cleanup, greet people, litter pick-up, light maintenance and fire ring cleaning. Contact the park office for additional information and availability.
Modern Cabins:
Ten modern rental cabins are available year-round. Cabins are furnished and have a living area, kitchen/dining area, toilet/shower room and two or three bedrooms. Cabin F is ADA accessible. Linens and dishes are not provided.
Organized Group Tenting:
Qualified adult and youth groups may use this 240-person capacity area that is equipped with picnic tables, water and flush toilets. The area is open from the third Monday in April to the third Monday in October. Advance reservations are recommended.
Winter Activities
Explore the Winter Report for the current snow and ice depths.
Cross-country Skiing:
Hiking trails may be skiied when snow cover permits.
Many trails allow snowmobiles after the end of deer hunting when conditions permit.
Ice Fishing:
Lake Jean offers ice fishing. Ice thickness is not monitored. Be sure the ice is at least four inches thick and carry safety equipment.
Environmental Education and Interpretation
Natural wetlands, old growth forests and majestic geological formations, which helped produce 22 beautiful waterfalls, make Ricketts Glen an excellent choice for outdoor studies. From March to November, the environmental education specialist conducts hands-on activities, guided walks and presentations on the natural and historical resources for school groups, scouts, civic organizations and the general public. Call in advance to set up a program that will enhance your classroom or group studies. Campers and visitors may check the bulletin boards and at the park office for listings of weekend programs and nature hikes.
How to Access the Waterfalls
Twenty-one waterfalls are along the Falls Trail within the Glens Natural Area, while one (Adams) is only a few hundred feet from the Evergreen Parking Lot off PA 118.
There are three parking lots that provide access to the Falls Trail. Lake Rose is at the end of the dirt road across from the campground and provides the closest access (5-10 minutes), but fills up quickly during peak times. An alternative is to park in Beach Parking Lot #2, leave the lot and walk down the Cabin Road (first road just outside of the lot), past a park gate, and onto a section of trail to the first intersection where you go right (15-20 minute access). The parking lots on PA 118 are 1.5 miles from the first waterfall upstream on the Falls Trail, but allow a good view of old growth trees.
The full loop of the Falls Trail is 7.2 miles if hiking both the upper and lower sections. To see most of the waterfalls, a 3.2-mile loop can be taken by going on Highland Trail and the Glen Leigh and Ganoga Glen sides of the trail.
Ricketts Glen is famous for its exceptional diversity of bird life, from 23 varieties of warblers to bald eagles, which is to why the park has been included in the official Audubon Susquehanna River Birding and Wildlife Trail across Pennsylvania. This series of trails connects some of Pennsylvania's finest birding and wildlife viewing sites, as well as important historical and natural areas.
The Bear Truths
Many Pennsylvania state parks are habitat for black bears. Although they appear cute and cuddly like a teddy bear, black bears are wild animals. A black bear can scramble up a tree like a raccoon and sprint as fast as a race horse. Bears use their claws to tear apart rotting logs to find food, and those claws also work well to open garbage cans and coolers. The size and strength of a black bear are astonishing.
Black bears have poor eyesight and fair hearing, but an excellent sense of smell. Aromatic scents coming from your personal items can attract a curious and hungry bear from a great distance. Bears are attracted to the smell of toothpaste, deodorants, air fresheners, food and even the clothes worn while cooking.
Store all items inside a vehicle. At primitive, walk-in campsites, suspend food between two trees, ten feet in the air and three feet from either tree.
Black bears normally avoid people, but bears dependent on eating human food can become aggressive when people get between them and food.
If you come in contact with a black bear, try chasing it away by making loud noises like yelling, honking a car horn or banging a pot. Notify a park employee if you have difficulties with bears.
Never approach a bear and be especially wary of mother bears and cubs.

Hiker's Guide to the Trees, Shrubs, and Vines of Ricketts Glen State Park, by George P. Chamuris, Ph. D., Bloomsburg University. departments.bloomu.edu/biology/ricketts/
History of Ricketts Glen
At the outbreak of the American Civil War in 1861, Robert Bruce Ricketts enlisted as a private in the U.S. Army. Fighting for the Grand Army of the Potomac, Ricketts led Battery F during the Battle of Gettysburg.
Ricketts swiftly moved up in the ranks and when the war ended, was discharged a colonel.
Colonel Ricketts at one time owned outright or controlled over 80,000 acres of land in this area.
His heirs, through the Central Penn Lumber Company, sold 48,000 acres to the Pennsylvania Game Commission from 1920-24. This left them with over 12,000 acres surrounding the Ganoga Lake, Lake Jean and Glens area.
Although the area was approved as a national park site in the 1930s, World War II brought an end to this plan for development. In 1942 the heirs sold 1,261 acres, the Falls and Glens area, to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for a state park.
Additional purchases from Colonel Ricketts' son, William Ricketts, in 1943 and 1949, resulted in a park nucleus of approximately 10,000 acres of former Ricketts holdings. Additional purchases from other individuals have brought the park to its present size.
Recreational facilities first opened in 1944. In 1950, the former Department of Forests and Waters replaced Lake Jean Dam with a larger, earthen dam, which combined Lake Jean with Mud Pond, creating the current 245-acre lake.
Other facility improvements and constructions have been done over the years, like the beach house, restrooms and cabins.
History of the Glens Natural Area
In 1868, Colonel R. Bruce Ricketts bought land in northeast Pennsylvania to timber it. Fishermen exploring the lower reaches of Kitchen Creek discovered waterfalls. Explorations revealed that two branches of Kitchen Creek cut through deep gorges in a series of waterfalls then united at Waters Meet and flowed through a glen among giant pines, hemlocks and oaks. Col. Ricketts built trails to the area of the waterfalls, which came to be known as the Glens Natural Area.
A member of the Wyoming Historical and Geological Society, Col. Ricketts named many of the waterfalls after American Indian tribes. He also named waterfalls for his friends and family.
The lower glen came to be called Ricketts Glen. Many of the magnificent trees in this area are over 300 years old. Diameters of almost four feet are common and many trees tower to 100 feet in height. The area is the meeting ground of the southern and northern hardwood types, creating an extensive variety of trees.
The Glens became a registered National Natural Landmark in 1969, and in 1993 became a State Park Natural Area and will be protected and maintained in a natural state.

Tulle Flowers
By: Sarah Forhan for Consumer Crafts
Want to know how to make fabric flowers? These tulle flowers from Consumer Crafts are so simple to make, and they're so pretty when they're done. These would be great for a wedding or party centerpiece.
- Pink Tulle
- Sparkle Tulle Apple Green
- Corsage Pins 2.5″
- Silver Bowdabra Bow Wire
- Pearlized White Stamens
- Floral Leaves
- Begin by cutting squares of pink and silver tulle.
- To make the center of the flower fold two pink tulle squares in half and then thread each one onto a corsage pin.
- Next, place four stamens folded in half around the pinhead. Pull the tulle up around the stamens and tie it tightly together with Bowdabra Bow Wire. Leave the strands of Bowdabra Bow Wire."
- To make the outside of the flower, thread about 5 full squares of pink tulle onto the large pin.
- To finish the flower thread four full squares of silver tulle, onto the pin.
- Hold the flower at the base and tie Bowdabra Bow Wire tightly around it.
- Once the Bowdabra Bow Wire is tied tightly and knotted. Use the wire tails to tie floral leaves along the sides. Bend the ends of the floral leaves onto the underneath of each leaf. Trim away excess the Bowdabra Bow Wire.
- Once, the flower is completed twirl the Bowdabra Bow Wire in the center of the flower with a pencil to make fun ringlets.
- Repeat these simple instructions to make several of these tulle flowers and combine for arrangements.
- For a very simple hanging arrangement place a hole through the center of a small Styrofoam ball. I used a chopstick to make my hole. Thread a pipe cleaner through it and make a loop at one end.
- Pin the tulle flowers to the front of the Styrofoam ball. Then add a strand of ribbon to the pipe cleaner loop, for hanging.
- Lastly, hang the tulle flower arrangement in a window, wall, mantle, or door handle.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Peter Thomson (Perth) Limited was a Perth, Scotland based whisky blender and wine merchants established in 1908.[1] The company was known for producing Beneagles blended Scotch whisky.[1] In 1983 the firm was bought by Sir Reo Stakis to complement the Haddows off-licence chain and wholesale business.[1]
In 1897 Alex Thomson and Sons was established as a family grocery business in Perth. A son, Peter Thomson, bought one of the stores on Perth High Street which he had managed since 1906, and established Peter Thomson (Perth) Limited in 1908.
Throughout the 1920s the company developed a mail order business selling their own blends of scotch whisky. The founder, Peter Thomson, died in 1939 and the business was passed to his son, David Kinnear Thomson. Throughout the Second World War, David Thomson was absent from the business as he was serving with the military and subsequently held as a prisoner of war.
After the war the wholesale and agency side of the business were expanded. Retail grocery and wine trading were also developed but ceased trading in 1973 with the closure of the remaining shop on Perth High Street.
In 1983 the company was acquired by Reo Stakis to complement the Haddows off-licence chain and wholesale business.[1] At the time the firm was the agent for a strong portfolio of drinks brands in Scotland including, The Macallan single malt, Beefeater Gin and Bertola sherry.[1] The company also had a strong market for its own blended whisky called Beneagles.[1] The firm sold its own range of miniature ceramic bottles, containing Beneagles, which depicted Scottish culture; novelty bottle shapes included the Loch Ness Monster, curling stones and animals.[2] The ceramic miniatures have become collectors items as they were made by some of Britain's finest potteries.[3]
In 1985 Scottish and Newcastle Brewries acquired Peter Thomson (Perth) Limited and Thomson Haddow from Sir Reo Stakis.[4] The whisky interest of Peter Thomson (Perth) Limited was incorporated into Charles Mackinlay and Co based in Leith, which was the sister company of Waverley Vintners Limited, owned by Scottish and Newcastle.[4] Later that year Charles Mackinlay and Co was acquired by Invergordon Distilleries and in 1993 they were bought by Whyte & Mackay.[5]

ELLIS -- Dennis Schoenthaler, an avid walker, saw the need for a walking trail in the Ellis community. Unfortunately, Schoenthaler didn't live long enough to see his dream come to fruition, as he died May 20 of cancer.
However, community members hope to complete the Dennis Schoenthaler Memorial Walking Trail just a year after his death.
Ellis Alliance Director Dena Patee said Schoenthaler would walk 5 to 7 miles a day on city streets and thought a trail would be useful for the community.
"He said, 'I want to do a walking trail, and I want to have it go by (Big Creek) because there's no place to walk,' " Patee said.
The Community Foundation of Ellis decided to take on the project this fall, and with the help of Fort Hays State University leadership studies teams, Patee said she hopes to have the project completed in May.
The half-mile trail will be built in Creekside Park.
Concrete work began in the fall, but much of the trail still needs to be finished.
Patee said she hopes directional lights, flowers and some multi-functional fitness stations, which could be used for pull-ups, push-ups and other aerobic exercises, will be placed along the trail.
According to estimates, Patee said the concrete trail will cost approximately $13,000, and lights could cost between $28,000 and $29,000. With the equipment and landscaping, the trail could cost a total of approximately $60,000.
So far, Patee said nearly $16,000 has been raised for the walking trail between fundraisers, Schoenthaler memorial gifts, funding by the Community Foundation of Ellis and a United Way grant.
Patee said they applied for another grant for approximately $15,000, but she hasn't heard whether they got it yet.
"We are still going to need donations for it," Patee said. "Even if we get $15,000 through the grant, we are going to need more to get the lighting in and some of the landscaping things."
The first Leadership 310 team worked on the project during the fall semester, and a new six-member team took it over this semester.
Team member Lamar Leon lives in Ellis, and he said he walks his dog in town and agreed there is a need for the trail.
"You have to do it on the street," Leon said. "It'd be nice to have somewhere to walk daily."
In addition to the trail, Leon said the team is planning to have a health fair to raise awareness about fitness, which was one of the main reasons why the team members chose to take on the task.
"Everybody chose it because we wanted to get out and raise awareness about health in the community," he said.
Patee said they are planning for the concrete to be poured and flowers to be planted during March and April, and community volunteers would be appreciated.
"We don't want one guy to be out there doing all the digging himself," Patee said. "We want everybody out there working on it so we can do it in a very short amount of time."
Those wishing to volunteer or donate should contact Patee at (785) 726-2660.

Early last year, Danielle and Fraser asked me to be their wedding photographer for their Brinkburn Priory wedding. This made me happy for two reasons. Firstly, these guys are both super nice and I knew we'd have a great time on the day – and secondly, I'd heard quite a few wonderful things about weddings at Brinkburn Priory in Northumberland – and so was excited to add this to the ever growing list of Northumberland wedding venues I've covered. It's quite a new venue for weddings, they've only covered around 30 wedding so far, but the word is already out and it's not hard to see why this place is gonna be a hugely sought wedding venue! Danielle and Fraser have good taste. The day was further complimented by unexpected wedding friendly weather, wonderful music from Val Boyers, tasty food from the guys at Wilkins Fine Dining and a surprise visit into the old Priory for a few photos. A top day with a top couple. Danielle & Fraser, congratulations guys. Here's a few of my faves from the day.
To book me as your Brinkburn Priory Wedding Photographer, or for any other venue – please contact me.
Many thanks, Paul Santos Wedding Photography.
