"Beautiful card and fantastic customer service! I had to change my order after reviewing the proof and the customer service was incredibly helpful in adjusting my order and accommodating what I needed for my save the dates. I even received a handwritten "thank you" in the mail for being a customer. I am really impressed with Wedding Paper Divas and highly recommend them!"
"I personalized these cards into navy with our wedding date, time, and place. The paper and envelopes are so thick and the thermography is so beautiful. They came in a stunning box and were all wrapped together. I would definitely 100% order from here again, and recommend to a friend. So glad I did this… I can't wait for all my family and friends to see how beautiful this work is!"
"This process was so easy. I love the way that the cards turned out. I did not expect them to be so small, but they came out perfectly."
"The card is classically beautiful with the slight antique look. I used the Signature paper which turned out wonderfully. The card felt substantial and I predict that it will last well and look great on people's refrigerators."
"I absolutely loved our Save the Dates - they were printed beautifully and the font/colors are perfect. This Save the Date/Invitation suite is perfect for our intimate and rustic winery wedding."

Arizona Cardinals
The Pulse: Antoine Cason the star of Cardinals' win over Titans
Every day, we at ArizonaSports.com ask our readers a question. It's the Sanderson Ford Poll Question of the Day, and it can be found midway down on the right hand side of our home page.
Monday, we asked who our readers thought was the MVP of the Arizona Cardinals' 37-34 overtime win over the Tennessee Titans Sunday. The choices were cornerback Antoine Cason, running back Andre Ellington, kicker Jay Feely, running back Rashard Mendenhall, quarterback Carson Palmer and the always popular "other."
Overwhelmingly, ArizonaSports.com readers selected Cason, who had two interceptions -- a pick-six and another in overtime to set up the game-winning field goal -- and a recovery of a muffed kickoff in the victory. The former Arizona Wildcat received 58 percent of the 644 votes cast, while Palmer and Ellington each garnered 17 percent.

Immigration Protesters In Homestead March For Reform
Hundreds gathered in Homestead on Thursday evening to rally for immigration reform.
The protesters marched around the block near Krome Avenue with signs and banners that read "Halt Deportation Now," "We Count" and "Stop Separating Families Obama."
The protesters consisted of local immigration groups and "Dreamers," students who've been granted permanent residency so that they can continue their education.
Diego Ramirez is one of those Dreamers. He's protesting so that his mother can have the same relief he had two years ago when President Obama implemented the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
"I still live with fear that my mom will deported in time," he says, "and that I'll be living in this country without the person who made me who I am."
Ramirez and the other protesters hope that the president and legislators feel the pressure of taking a firm stance on immigration. Obama is set to make an announcement on immigration in September.
Recently the same groups have protested in front of Senator Marco Rubio's office and at Broward Transitional Center in Pompano Beach, where undocumented families are detained.
"We're here to pursue and push President Obama to come out with an announcement that he said he was going to come up with," says Erick Zuniga of Homestead's Equal Rights for All. "Right now we're just trying to pressure every representative, like from Marco Rubio to Obama, and [to see] if he's against Dreamers or with Dreamers."

The performance of alternative forecasting methods for SETAR models
UNSPECIFIED. (1997) The performance of alternative forecasting methods for SETAR models. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FORECASTING, 13 (4). pp. 463-475. ISSN 0169-2070
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
We compare a number of methods that have been proposed in the literature for obtaining h-step ahead minimum mean square error forecasts for self-exciting threshold autoregressive (SETAR) models. These forecasts are compared to those from an AR model. The comparison of forecasting methods is made using Monte Carlo simulation. The Monte Carlo method of calculating SETAR forecasts is generally at least as good as that of the other methods we consider. An exception is when the disturbances in the SETAR model come from a highly asymmetric distribution, when a Bootstrap method is to be preferred.
An empirical application calculates multi-period forecasts from a SETAR model of US gross national product using a number of the forecasting methods. We find that whether there are improvements in forecast performance relative to a linear AR model depends on the historical epoch we select, and whether forecasts are evaluated conditional on the regime the process was in at the time the forecast was made.

Like Sasquatch and Nessie, the Rapness Monster straddles the line between myth and reality, sighted by isolated individuals but disbelieved by the general public. Today, however, he has stepped out into the light of day for the first time, revealing his secret identity: indie rhymesayer Boaz. On his latest promo single, the Pittsburgh mic-wrecker offers us an up-close and personal look at his monstrous alter-ego, delivering ferocious bars over an ominous, brass-laced beat by former labelmate Larry Fisherman (aka Mac Miller). This joint isn't attached to a larger set, but those feeling it can watch our pages for the latest news and tunes from the Rostrum Records recording artist.

BARCELONA, SPAIN -- (Marketwire) -- 11/05/12 -- The Linux Foundation, the nonprofit organization dedicated to accelerating the growth of Linux, today announced that Citrix has expanded its investment in Linux and open source cloud computing by upgrading to Gold membership. The company previously was a Silver member of organization.
Citrix is a committed supporter of open source software and is a significant participant in both Xen and Apache CloudStack. Both projects provide the underpinnings for some of the world's largest cloud computing environments. The Xen hypervisor is a virtualization technology that enables server virtualization, a critical capability for cloud computing. Apache CloudStack software orchestrates virtualized environments so that they can work as an elastic compute environment. Many of the world's leading telecommunications companies have chosen Citrix CloudPlatform, powered by Apache CloudStack and XenServer, as the foundation for their next generation cloud computing offerings.
Developers, DevOps professionals, end users and vendors are looking to the collaborative development model to accelerate cloud computing deployments and advance technology innovation in this area. As a leader in open cloud software, Citrix is prioritizing investments in the open development model. Its increased participation in Linux Foundation Labs, workgroups, events and other activities will help Citrix foster greater collaboration and participation in the open cloud and maximize its investment in Linux and open source software.
The Linux Foundation provides a neutral environment where work on the open cloud can be advanced across projects and companies. It hosted the industry's first CloudOpen (http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/cloudopen) event In August, bringing together vendors, developers and users to discuss topics including strategy, security and systems. More than 150 companies are members of the organization, participating at one of three levels: Platinum, Gold or Silver membership. Currently there are seven Platinum members and 17 Gold members.
"Cloud computing represents a significant shift in the way technologies users consume IT services and how developers build those services. Linux and the collaborative development are paving the way for this shift," said Jim Zemlin, executive director of the Linux Foundation. "Citrix is taking an important leadership role in the open cloud by prioritizing Linux and collaborative development for advancing cloud computing industry-wide."
CloudStack is an open source cloud computing platform for creating, managing and deploying infrastructure services. The open source Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) platform is a key part of the Citrix strategy for competing in the future of enterprise computing. The company acquired the platform from Cloud.com in 2011 and earlier this year contributed the entire code base to the Apache Software Foundation.
"The Linux Foundation provides a valued environment for collaborating across projects, companies and industries," said Mark R. Hinkle, Senior Director Cloud Computing Communities, Citrix. "Upgrading our membership level and increasing our investment in Linux and open source cloud computing are natural next steps as we work to advance cloud technologies to address the challenges facing enterprise users today."
Citrix is a Gold Sponsor of LinuxCon Europe, taking place in Barcelona, Spain November 5-7, 2012. Citrix executives and Apache CloudStack project members will also be speaking at the event. For more information or to register for the event, please visit the Linux Foundation events website.

About The Linux Foundation
The Linux Foundation is a nonprofit consortium dedicated to fostering the growth of Linux.

Analytics is the foundation of smart data and now, with the ability to run Hadoop directly on smart storage systems like Cloudian HyperStore, enterprises will gain huge business advantages in terms of scalability, efficiency and cost savings as they move closer to realizing the potential of the Internet of Things.
In his session at 16th Cloud Expo, Paul Turner, technology evangelist and CMO at Cloudian, Inc., will discuss the revolutionary notion that the storage world is transitioning from mere Big Data to smart data. He will argue that today's hybrid cloud storage solutions, with commodity... Mar. 6, 2015 06:00 PM EST Reads: 2,085 |
By Carmen Gonzalez Cloud data governance was previously an avoided function when cloud deployments were relatively small. With the rapid adoption in public cloud – both rogue and sanctioned, it's not uncommon to find regulated data dumped into public cloud and unprotected. This is why enterprises and cloud providers alike need to embrace a cloud data governance function and map policies, processes and technology controls accordingly.
In her session at 15th Cloud Expo, Evelyn de Souza, Data Privacy and Compliance Strategy Leader at Cisco Systems, will focus on how to set up a cloud data governance program and s... Mar. 6, 2015 04:15 PM EST Reads: 1,140 |

By Carmen Gonzalez The industrial software market has treated data with the mentality of "collect everything now, worry about how to use it later." We now find ourselves buried in data, with the pervasive connectivity of the (Industrial) Internet of Things only piling on more numbers. There's too much data and not enough information.

By Elizabeth White We certainly live in interesting technological times. And no more interesting than the current competing IoT standards for connectivity. Various standards bodies, approaches, and ecosystems are vying for mindshare and positioning for a competitive edge. It is clear that when the dust settles, we will have new protocols, evolved protocols, that will change the way we interact with devices and infrastructure. We will also have evolved web protocols, like HTTP/2, that will be changing the very core of our infrastructures. At the same time, we have old approaches made new again like micro-services...

By Carmen Gonzalez Operational Hadoop and the Lambda Architecture for Streaming Data
Apache Hadoop is emerging as a distributed platform for handling large and fast incoming streams of data. Predictive maintenance, supply chain optimization, and Internet-of-Things analysis are examples where Hadoop provides the scalable storage, processing, and analytics platform to gain meaningful insights from granular data that is typically only valuable from a large-scale, aggregate view. One architecture useful for capturing and analyzing streaming data is the Lambda Architecture, representing a model of how to analyze rea... Mar. 6, 2015 02:00 PM EST Reads: 1,592 |

By Carmen Gonzalez Even as cloud and managed services grow increasingly central to business strategy and performance, challenges remain. The biggest sticking point for companies seeking to capitalize on the cloud is data security. Keeping data safe is an issue in any computing environment, and it has been a focus since the earliest days of the cloud revolution. Understandably so: a lot can go wrong when you allow valuable information to live outside the firewall. Recent revelations about government snooping, along with a steady stream of well-publicized data breaches, only add to the uncertainty Mar. 6, 2015 11:15 AM EST Reads: 1,000 |

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- WikiLeaks' founder claims he has the goods that could take down a big U.S. bank. But there's little sign anyone believes him.
Julian Assange, the founder of the site that has gained notoriety by publishing secret U.S. military and diplomatic documents, said in an interview this week that the next WikiLeaks target is a major bank.
Inconveniently, he didn't say which one, specifying only that it is "a big U.S. bank." Assange also didn't say just what sort of information he has that would be so damaging.
With Wall Street already up to its ears in scandal, market watchers reacted with a shrug.
"We already know the banks are grossly incompetent, can't manage risk and would be dead without taxpayer support," said Barry Ritholtz, a Wall Street money manager who rails on the bankers at his Big Picture blog. "What are we going to find in these leaks -- that free checking isn't really free?"
Like it or not, we shall soon find out. Assange said in an interview with Forbes that he plans to release "either tens or hundreds of thousands of documents" early next year.
The release, Assange said, will reveal "unethical behavior." He said he would stop short of calling the depicted actions criminal.
Assange said he seeks to provoke a full-scale investigation of the banks, along the lines of the probes that followed the collapse of energy trader Enron nine years ago.
"It will give a true and representative insight into how banks behave at the executive level in a way that will stimulate investigations and reforms, I presume," he said.
Wall Street, which is already the subject of numerous investigations and has a potentially massive problem in the form of rising scrutiny of its mishandling of mortgage documentation, did not exactly shudder at the news.
Stocks in the biggest U.S. financial firms, ranging from Bank of America (BAC, Fortune 500) and JPMorgan Chase (JPM, Fortune 500) to Goldman Sachs (GS, Fortune 500) and Morgan Stanley (MS, Fortune 500), dropped 1% 2% in midday action Tuesday, on a day when stocks were generally lower and the European banking crisis was adding to worries about U.S. financials.
The biggest risk seems to stem from the prospect of another public black eye, along the lines of the hearings that Sen. Carl Levin, D., Mich., held in April.
It was at those hearings that Levin repeatedly questioned Goldman bankers about internal e-mails referring to a "sh---y deal" the firm had pushed on its clients.
But there's reason to doubt that documents showing more unethical behavior will have any effect, let alone bring down a bank.
The administration, after all, spent much of its first year in office trying to reassure the public and the markets that no big U.S. lenders would be allowed to fail.
That is why Congress pressured accounting standard setters to ease a rule governing how banks recognize losses, and why the administration carried through with the bank stress tests that allowed banks to cheaply raise more capital.
"Anyone who follows the banking industry knows these guys are essentially insolvent," said Ritholtz. "So we're not going to get surprised there."
The banks have paid the country back by shrinking their loan books in eight of the past nine quarters, while paying their top executives in a fashion that is, if it's possible, even more irresponsible than before the 2008 meltdown.
So what about the weapon Assange has used with some results in the military and diplomatic leaks, the acute embarrassment of the subjects? That doesn't seem likely to change the game for the banks.
It hasn't been a problem, for instance, through three years of revelations about banks pushing toxic derivatives on unsophisticated municipal treasurers and foreclosing on the wrong people.
"I'm not saying he doesn't have anything, but you have to wonder what else could really be exposed at this point," says Peter Cohan, a management consultant and author who teaches business strategy at Babson College. "I just wonder at what point people will tire of giving this guy all this free publicity."

4.5 Great game GTAMASTERANG | 15/01/2011 | See all GTAMASTERANG's reviews (2) This is a must get game it takes a while to like it but once you've got into it you;ll never stop playin it.GoodDiving is funFish have info and are detailedCan visit a atoll and abyssBecome friends with 3 dolphinsBadGame is confusing at timesSome places are scaryKathrine would annoy you every 20 minsIts a great game once you get 100% which takes forever you would love it!Its a must get game and endless ocean 2 is a must get game aswell!
4.5 Endless boring!!!! chickenjoe | 17/11/2009 | See all chickenjoe's reviews (9) This game is boring! All you do is swim and look at the same sea creatures all the time.On the boat an animal will be just sitting there at random times! It could be a seal, a sea bird,a penguin or even a poler bear! The graphics are good but the music is just annoying and nothing can hurt you! To know about an animal you must pet it like a dog!You can also find random objects that you dont even use!
4.5 Endless Serenity... miniminty | 18/06/2009 | See all miniminty's reviews (66) This game is so relaxing if you're not in the mood to jump around on some of Nintendo wii's more energetic games like Mario & Sonic at the 2008 Olympic Games or My Fitness Coach. Serene music (Hayley Westenra), accurate information on marine animals (so perfect for kids), and the fish have a calming effect on you. A steal at under £20. The aim of the game is to find and document as many marine animals as possible, make friends with them and take photographs to present in magazine articles as you progress through the game. Whilst doing this, you can guide professors and other marine biologists on scuba dives, swim with dolphins, whales, etc, discover artifacts and find the mythical whale, The White Mother, and move you boat around the bay to new diving areas.It does take a few mins to get used to the diving navigation but once you do you're well away!So much fun... 10/10!
4.5 My favorite game on the wii Tinkerbell66 | 11/06/2009 | See all Tinkerbell66's reviews (40) Really fun. Its fun swimming around the ocean finding different species of fish . You can find hidden locations like the mermaids grotto. I can not wait for number 2 beatifull ocean. Must buy if you havent already.
4.5 Extremely relaxing! UtopiaX | 10/03/2009 | See all UtopiaX's reviews (20) At first I thought "damn this is gonna be boring"! But yet again I bought the game and I gave me just what I needed... pure fun relaxing moments. The music is sooo beautiful its hard to describe. The fish, the boat, the missions, the girl... it all works together perfectly. It's like living in a dreamworld where there is no war, no anger, no hate... only fish & beautiful environments. Must buy if you want to escape the world we actually live in, even if it's just for a while :)
4.5 Awsome!! Jopotts | 05/02/2009 | See all Jopotts's reviews (1) Its a good game you can make friends with dolphins.but at some pointsit gets a bit scary!you can find manta rays turtles even sharks!!! Its such a good gameu have 2 buy it!!!
4.5 Endless enjoyment. trishie | 02/02/2009 | See all trishie's reviews (15) This game is deffinately a grower. When I first played Endless Ocean I did find it slow and I wasn't sure what the point of the game was but as I progressed I began to become immersed in it's imagery, soundtrack and playability. There is a story to this adventure that is educational and addictive. Not only do you swim the oceans looking for all types of marine life and sea mammals but you can also collect them to build your own aquarium, take other divers on tours, collect photographs of your finds and interact with friends (providing they have the game as well.) Endless Ocean certainly makes a change from the fast paced high action games that are continually being pumped out. If you want to take some time out to chill then this is the game for you. Superb.
4.5 Great buy! corey1234 | 10/01/2009 | See all corey1234's reviews (6) I got endless ocean for a late christmas present, and i was very impressed with it. What you have to do is search for fish and sharks, and find the rare whales, and you can collect them to put in your aqarium. If you like action and fast moving games, this is not for you, as you dont get ripped up by sharks, but everyone else, brilliant game, buy now!
4.5 awesome mezeee | 25/12/2008 | See all mezeee's reviews (49) I love dolphins and marine life so this game is ideal for me. You befriend different marine animals, and 3 of your special friends can be your diving partners that you can train. Ever since I put it in my Wii, I can't stop playing it! Anyone who needs a peaceful half and hour or who loves undersea creatures, needs to buy this now.
4.5 Brilliant **** SaraSunShine | 18/12/2008 | See all SaraSunShine's reviews (1) This game is realy soothing after a long or stressfull day.You find new sea creatures and find out new facts about them.You can also take photos of animals in the sea, make a dolphin your friend or find new places to dive!Realy good game! 5 *****Buy Buy Buy!!!!SaraSunShine!

Patriots G Logan Mankins among the players to receive a letter about cutting his salary (Updated!) - 0 Comments
The Patriots have sent guard Logan Mankins a letter indicating that the team, on next Tuesday, would exercise their right to cut his salary to 110 percent of what he made in 2010. I've now confirmed the news that was first reported in the Denver Post.
Mankins has not shown up for OTAs, which are voluntary, and he has not signed his restricted free agent tender at a first-and-third round level. If he signs the tender and shows up for mandatory mini-camp, the letter is moot.

My three year old 32G T-100 tablet from Toshiba is has had a hard life getting tossed around and dropped. The fact that it does not need tapatalk or any other "phone" apps is why I bought it. I like the freedom of choosing to add these apps or not knowing that the hybrid platform supports both old and new. The thing still impresses me daily with over 8 hours of use streaming radio, Google, forums, and keeps on kicking. I also don't get that stupid tapatalk script that some of you users use to get in the past when posting something. But, one of these days I am going to find a way to kill it. Then it will just be another external drive to toss into my collection.
I don't see the point in paying for something that should be free to start with. |

We often don't think about the things in our world that are common placed. Everyday, we hear, see, touch, and smell things that we give little or no thought to. For instance, can you imagine a world without color? I certainly would not want to live in a place like that...Would you?The books listed below are a celebration of colors around you.
For many adults, the Frog and Toad series, are books that you enjoy reading as a child, and now you are sharing them with your children or grandchildren.
I love it when parents share this type of information with me. Not only does it warm my heart, but it also gives me the opportunity to recommend other titles that you might enjoy.
So, stop by the library to say " hi!" While you are here; share a story or ask a question because we would love to get to know you.
Here are a few more picture book gems that you may or may not have heard of. I used several of these in my storytime, and they received rave reviews from children. I hope that you enjoy them as much as I have.
My Dad Is Big and Strong, But... : A Bedtime Story
Family Storytime is held every Monday night provided that the library is open.
During our weekly storytime program, children and their families will enjoy books, songs, and other early literacy activities. Frequently, crafts are also provided, but may not be appropriate for children under 3 years old. Please be aware that supplies are limited.
All HCPL locations will be closed on Monday, January 21st in observance of Martin Luther King Day. We will reopen on Tuesday for regular business hours.
Please call 281-812-2162 for additional storytime options. Thank you.
During the course of one year, the library receives many wonderful picture books. So, I want to highlights some of the items that you may have missed during 2012. I will be continuing this process during the next few weeks. If you had a new favorite, please post a comment below to share with others.
I have always loved children's Christmas books, and at one point, I had a rather large collection. Incorporating books into holiday celebrations is a great family tradition.
I am excited to tell you that this has been an amazing year for holiday books. All of the books listed here were published during 2012. I think that you will be pleasantly surprised at how many wonderful authors have shared their creative talents. I hope that you enjoy reading these items as much as I have.
At the Atascocita Branch Library, we recently had Rabbi Dan Gordon of Temple Beth Torah as a special guest for Twilight Tales Storytime. The program was very successful and we received several positive comments from families who partook. If you were not able to attend the program or simply want to expand your experience here are a few book suggestions for you to enjoy
Picture Books about Hanukkah
Now, that our Christmas tree is up, we need help decorating it. Families are invited to stop by the library to create a Christmas ornament for our tree. Materials will be available during business hours. While you are at the library check out our holiday books.

23. People who think being gay is a choice.
24. People who can't except change.
25. People who say they are fine with homosexuals as long as they don't hit on them, that really pisses me off! They find you attractive so they ask you out! Big whoop! instead of being a homophobe be honored that they thought of you in that way!
26. People who believe that homosexuality is wrong and that it's unnatural. It isn't wrong, it is totally natural. It's just like yin and yang, there's straight and gay.
27. Some of the things in the bible, if it weren't for the bible things would be different. Now I believe in the ten commandments and stuff but I don't believe for one second that you could go to hell all because your gay. God loves everyone and is not going to send you to hell if your gay. If there wasn't supposed to be gay people then they wouldn't exist! and it would not be possible.
28. People against Gay rights. Gays are people too! Gender doesn't matter love does!
29. People who smoke in public, like a bus stop.
30. Verizon the company, they are evil. They sell all of your personal information and cheat you out of money, they also don't allow you to put images or anything else from your phone onto your computer and vice versa.
31. Women/girls who complain that someone they like is gay. It's really annoying, I mean what about gay guys? they like guys they can't have and you don't hear them complaining! Same for straight guys with lesbians and lesbians with straight women. Nobody complains to my knowledge but straight women, it's very annoying.
32.I keep feeding trolls. If I'm not careful, they will get so fat they would explode! not good..I should do something about that :#

12-13 & 15-21 I didn't make up, it was someone Else's what annoys them and I agree with it so I added it to mine xD
36. The lottery, you know. You have a better chance at getting struck by lightning 3 times then winning the lottery?
37. Casinos, they make those stupid machines so random. It's almost impossible to win.
38. I hate it when someone wins in a game all the time and laugh about it and then when you win, they get all pissed off and start crying like a baby saying you cheated or something.
39. Straight men who say they can turn lesbians straight >.> You can't turn straight or gay, you either are or your not. What will happen is the lesbian is going to kick their arse and the straight guys is just going to be seen as an A hole.
I'm sure he wouldn't like it if I told him I would turn him gay!
1 More Tamil Tigers a terrorist group getting into Canada. 2 stupid laws we have in canada . 3 People that have campfires when there is a campfire ban and the fire gets away from them. 4 When I have to edit this because I forgot something.

Or men that swear above all else they can figure out my anatomy and psyche and just assume they Doctor. Manhattan and got all the answers to my questions. A LOT of guys don't realize that's really annoying.

Just to add to my recent post, I hate self righteous people who thinks everyone in the world is created under their hand. We are all equal. I sin, you sin, same for everyone.
What ticks me off , age and looks discrimation in the US.
1: People who think they're better then everyone else because their parents spoil them.
2: Girls I don't like bugging me and/or my boyfriend. Seriously, if I hate you, I'm not going to play nice and talk to you. Neither is he. Why bother?
3: Female friends of my boyfriend that hate me only because he's dating me and not them. Really? Grow up. :mad:

Changes to B.C.'s carbon neutral requirements a positive first step
Last week, the provincial government announced changes to public sector carbon neutrality in response to some concerns. Overall, each of the changes should improve the policy. Unfortunately, some important concerns have yet to be addressed.
Fossil fuel subsidies are not the best way to reduce home energy costs
A proposal to eliminate part of the harmonized sales tax (HST) from home heating fuels in Ontario is back on the table as of this week. The New Democratic Party of Ontario has set its terms for accepting Ontario's budget. One of the requests is the removal of the provincial portion of the HST from home heating fuels, a move that could cost the province about $350-million a year in lost revenues.
Exemptions for greenhouse growers set poor precedent for carbon tax review
Yesterday, the government announced a change to the carbon tax in what amounts to temporarily eliminating $7.6 million in carbon taxes from greenhouses in B.C. and, in the process, placing its review on the edge of a slippery slope.
Faulty premise underlies Budget 2012 "streamlining" of environmental review process
If you followed coverage of the federal budget last week with an eye to environmental issues, you could be excused for thinking Canada's environmental review process is a tangled web of unnecessary red tape that is stifling investment in Canada's energy sector.
Budget 2012: Canada won't spare a penny for clean energy
Over the past several years, Prime Minister Stephen Harper and his government have been doggedly selling Canada as a "clean energy superpower". While those words have always rung hollow to anybody tracking the global rise of the $1 trillion clean energy economy, after yesterday's federal budget they simply ring false.
Pembina policy director testifies before U.S. congressional committee on oilsands
This morning I appeared before members of the U.S. Congress to speak about the role of technology and government oversight in Canada's oilsands. As policy director at the Pembina Institute, I was invited along with several others to testify at the "American Energy Initiative" hearing of the Subcommittee on Energy and Power, part of the House of Representatives' Energy and Commerce Committee.
Carbon tax review could lead to better future for B.C.
The announcement of a pending review of the carbon tax provides an opportunity to build a better B.C.
Clean energy also needs political focus
Canada is quietly emerging as a renewable energy leader, but it will take the same political focus currently being put toward oilsands to ensure we retain and grow the jobs that are being created in the country's emerging clean energy sector.
Helping Calgary meet its greenhouse gas emissions targets
Recently, Calgary City Council voted overwhelmingly in favour of adopting its first citywide greenhouse gas plan. The plan aims to reduce the city's emissions by 20 per cent by 2020, and 80 per cent by 2050, below 2005 levels and I'm thrilled to say that the Pembina Institute's community services consulting group helped to write it.
Carbon pricing and Canada's New West Partnership: An $8 billion opportunity
The premiers of British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan have pledged to meet with the federal government to discuss a national energy strategy and the related issue of regulating greenhouse gas emissions. Before that meeting happens, let's examine their efforts to price carbon, a critical component of any cost-effective approach to dealing with climate change.
The truth about our funding
An open letter from the Pembina Institute to Canadians
Dear friends,
As you may have noticed, the Harper government and the "Ethical Oil Inc" front group have been working to discredit groups like the Pembina Institute and our work on energy issues by claiming that we are a "foreign-funded," "radical" organization advocating against the best interests of Canadians.
Allow us to set the record straight.
Government statements on Gateway hearings show Canada is open for business, closed to criticism
Apparently Canada is open for business but closed to criticism, no matter how constructive. This is the clearest conclusion that can be drawn from Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver's open letter to Canadians, in which he attacks advocates of responsible oil-sands development as "radicals" and dismisses the concerns of thousands of Canadians who want to have a say in the decision of whether to build Enbridge's proposed Northern Gateway pipeline.
Canada's Kyoto math doesn't add up
Yesterday afternoon, my colleagues and I were trying to make sense of the outcomes from the Durban, South Africa, climate change conference. Was it an exercise in deceit or did it offer some glimmer of hope? Before we could fully answer those questions, news broke that Canada was formally withdrawing from the Kyoto Protocol. Just hours off the plane from Durban, Environment Minister Kent made the announcement that Canada would no longer be a party to the world's only climate change treaty.
Attacks on environmental group supporters are disingenuous and disturbing
Yesterday the reputation of the Pembina Institute and that of the British government was attacked in a column by Kathryn Marshall, a professional oilsands booster. Her commentary repeats many misleading or downright false statements about the Pembina Institute and the nature of our work.
Canada's performance and positions in Durban
The second and final week of the UN climate negotiations in Durban, South Africa is now underway. In our view, a wealthy country such as Canada that is serious about reaching an agreement, would be doing three things. Let's take a look at where Canada stands on these points.
Recommendations to weaken the B.C. carbon tax would be a step backwards
Working on climate change issues can be challenging, especially when you compare what climate scientists say needs to be done with what politicians are (or are not) doing. Tuesday was a particularly challenging day. That's when the British Columbia Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Services released 75 recommendations for the 2012 B.C. budget, five of which discuss B.C.'s carbon tax and cap-and-trade rules and convey little interest in building on the positive steps already taken to address climate change in the province.
Fact: Green energy is good for Ontario
Ontarians head to the polls on Thursday to elect the next provincial government, at the close of an election campaign where green energy has emerged as a hot-button issue. As the rhetoric has escalated on all sides of the debate, Ontario voters have also had to wade through a great deal of misinformation about their energy options.
Thinking outside the pipeline: Why American decision-makers must consider the true costs of Keystone XL
The clock is ticking for the U.S. State Department to evaluate the proposed Keystone XL (KXL) pipeline.
Des promoteurs du gaz de schiste nous citent de manière trompeuse
Nous cherchions, avec notre étude, à contribuer à un débat bien informé, s'appuyant sur les meilleures recherches scientifiques et économiques. Quelle déception, alors, que deux des principaux promoteurs du gaz de schiste au Québec aient plutôt choisi d'utiliser notre rapport pour faire des relations publiques trompeuses.
Quebec shale gas proponents misrepresent Pembina study
At the Pembina Institute we hope that our work stimulates well-informed debate, based on the best available science and economic analysis. It's therefore very disappointing that two of the most prominent proponents of shale gas development in Quebec have chosen to use one of our reports as part of a misleading public relations exercise.
Did Ontarians get a good deal with the Green Energy Act?
The Green Energy Act brought Ontario new investment, jobs and manufacturing — not to mention clean sources of energy. But Ontario is now paying premium prices for that clean electricity, and many Ontarians are wondering if they got a good deal.
B.C. community puts its money where its mouth is in the fight against climate change
Many people talk a good line when it comes to taking action on climate change. But this week Dawson Creek, a city of 12,000 people in northern B.C., has decided to put its money where its mouth is.
Can Obama help us cut our gas bills?
Last Friday, while many Canadians were gassing up their cars getting ready to hit the road for the long weekend, U.S. president Barack Obama unveiled new regulations to lower drivers' gas bills and cut pollution from American vehicles.
New report challenges the assumed climate benefits of natural gas
In a meeting last April with the Senate Standing Committee on Energy, the Environment and Natural Resources, then-environment minister Jim Prentice said: "in terms of reducing our emissions of greenhouse gas as well as other pollutants, the more natural gas we can bring on in this country, the more desirable it is."
But a new report released today by the Pembina Institute and the David Suzuki Foundation challenges that assumption.
Cancelling the Green Energy Act would have little effect on Ontario electricity prices: author of new report explains results
Ontario's electricity prices have become a hot-button issue recently.
But in spite of the increased focus on Ontario's electricity system, and in particular the Green Energy Act, there has been little information about how replacing the Act would affect electricity prices in the future.
Moving Canada toward a new energy vision
We need a new energy vision for Canada — and the Pembina Institute's history, as well as the wide range of experience within our organization, puts us in a strong position to advance this vision.
Gas pain? Time for some serious nozzle-gazing
As the price of gas continues to fluctuate, drivers are feeling the pinch, and they're looking for someone to blame — be it the HST, the energy companies or political unrest in the Middle East. Many motorists are also calling for the government to step in and provide relief. Meanwhile, the Ontario government claims that if it reduces prices at the pump through tax decreases, energy companies will just jump in and inflate prices to fill the gap.
The next five years for climate and energy action in China
In a recent post we examined the remarkable growth of renewable energy in China — and the rising importance of climate change, energy security and low-carbon development in government decision-making. Here we will offer a quick look ahead at what lays in store for the next five years.
Video: CBC town hall discussion on Canada's energy future
"Is Canada doing enough to ensure a sustainable energy future?"
That was the question of the day on a recent edition of CBC Power and Politics, which featured a town hall discussion on Canada's energy policy. The Pembina Institute's Clare Demerse was part of that discussion, and in this video she explains how the transition toward a more sustainable energy future could benefit Canadians across the country.
Carbon pricing: comparing federal party platforms
Now that all the platforms are in, we thought it would be helpful to provide a summary of where the five major parties stand on the key question of pricing greenhouse gas pollution.
In most of Canada right now, there is no fee of any kind attached to emitting greenhouse gas pollution. But that pollution causes climate change, which is already imposing costs on Canada and the world — and which is projected to cause much more serious harm unless we can significantly reduce our emissions.
Cap-and-trade: Canadian after all?
At a news conference earlier this week, federal cabinet minister John Baird called the Liberal Party's cap-and-trade proposal "incredibly divisive" and "un-Canadian."
It's a surprising statement, and not just because Minister Baird's own government said it supported cap-and-trade as recently as 2009. Nearly 80 per cent of Canadians currently live in provinces whose premiers support cap-and-trade: British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario and Québec have all expressed interest in joining with U.S. states in the Western Climate Initiative cap-and-trade system.
Who's afraid of carbon pricing?
The Liberal Party's campaign platform, released Sunday, promised a cap-and-trade system that would apply to "all sectors of the economy with no exceptions."
Despite some unanswered questions, a pledge to put a price on Canada's greenhouse gas pollution is always good news in our books. But according to this week's media reports, cap-and-trade is a pretty scary prospect for some commentators.
Pembina's federal election checklist: campaigning for the climate and clean energy
It's early days yet, but this spring's federal election campaign has already made one thing abundantly clear: there are a lot of political junkies working at the Pembina Institute.
Despite some very serious distractions (like those irresistible new daily Nanos numbers) we managed to tear ourselves away from our Twitter feeds long enough to put together a checklist for the kind of party platforms we'd like to see in this campaign.
New oilsands reclamation program more transparent, but still financially risky
Alberta's new reclamation program for oilsands mines and will make the reclamation process more transparent, but the overall foundation of the program is on rocky ground and may put Albertans at even greater risk of paying to clean up the oilsands.
Budget 2011: A checklist for clean energy success
This year's federal budget will be tabled in a week of high-stakes political drama in Ottawa. To make sure that clean energy doesn't get lost between the photo-ops and the fighter jets, here's our checklist for a strong clean energy budget.
Canadian nuclear plans under scrutiny as Japan's crisis unfolds
I have often marveled at how seriously Japan takes emergency preparedness, without which the casualty rate from the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami would have been far, far greater.
Yet as we watch the drama unfold, we would be reckless not to consider the implications of Japan's nuclear crisis for our own energy system. Canadian energy planners and politicians, particularly those in Ontario who are pushing for a nuclear renaissance, must draw lessons from the Fukushima nuclear crisis. In short: we should be planning to phase out nuclear power, not aid its rebirth.
More jobs could be created with strong climate policies than without: report
If you spend time listening to politicians talk about their priorities, you'll very quickly end up hearing about jobs. Job creation matters across the country, and its importance has only grown in response to the economic downturn. We all know that decision-makers are eager to take steps that create jobs, and they think very carefully before putting a policy in place if it could lead to job losses.
For our climate team, this added up to a powerful case to study green employment.
Ontario's transportation policies can protect against rising gas prices
For the past week or so, Ontarians have been grappling with high gas prices resulting from the uprisings in the Middle East. Some oil analysts warn that this has long-term oil price implications, putting our economic recovery at risk.
The Globe and Mail reported this week that rising oil prices are "creating new urgency for Ontario to reinvent itself" via a clean energy economy — citing the Government of Ontario's estimate that its Green Energy Act will create roughly 50,000 jobs to illustrate how investing in green energy can help fill the employment void created by the recent recession and the manufacturing industry's decline.
Is there a "silver bullet" for climate change?
Editor's note: The following blog post is part of a series written during a conference on carbon pricing held at Wesleyan University in Connecticut late last year.
When James Hansen says there's a "silver bullet" in the fight against climate change, I'm inclined to keep listening.
The author, professor and NASA climatologist is world-renowned for both his scientific expertise and his outspoken views on the need for world governments — particularly his own — to take strong and swift action to deal with climate change by curbing fossil fuel use. He's also well aware of the economic forces driving nations to develop their natural resources.
"You can't force other countries not to develop their [fossil fuel] resources," Hansen said late last year, during his keynote address at a weekend conference at Wesleyan University in Connecticut. "The only silver bullet is a price on carbon."

Casino was THE place to go for fighting games since Streetfighter II. Trivia: The owner, John of Electrocoin had an exclusive deal with Capcom to release Streetfighter games here FIRST in the UK. John was an SF nut and had all the releases here up to months before anyone else. It still had audiences up until SF IV around 2010.There were also Tohou, SNK and Japanese imported games.
Due to no money in videogames in general, John had the option of cutting down on cabs, then was offered to have the basement of Angel arcade (opposite the tube station) to host games in. Ultimately he decided it wasn't worth the effort. Most of the cabs were sold to Mark at the Heart of Gaming, and in turn he reconditioned them for Lucky777's arcade, where they now reside in Southend.
I was lucky enough to get a heads up and grab a video on the last day it was open (as we knew it) before the refit.
It is truely sad the place has shut, as it was the premiere location for fighting game fanatics.
This video was taken in March 2013. Enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNOYrpiAqdM
