Communication Breakdown Between Utilities and Their Online Customers
Utilities are lagging behind most of their private-sector peers, and even many government agencies, when it comes to using digital technology to reach their customers. That oversight is costing them money today -- and in the future, it could start losing them customers.
Long-time readers of Greentech Media are familiar with these kinds of critiques, and now consultancy Booz Allen Hamilton is out with a new report that offers up some suggestions for fixing the problem. The "Digital Migration for Electric Utilities" report pulls together lots of fresh data to highlight how utilities are starting to bridge this digital divide, and how far they still have to go (PDF).
They're starting from behind. In a time when many people conduct much of their personal and professional business from their smartphones, only 26 percent of the utilities sampled in a 2014 investigation offered mobile applications to their customers, the report found. That certainly makes it more difficult for utilities to push their messages to consumers on the go.
And while almost every utility Booz Allen surveyed has some kind of web presence, most lack the advanced features to get customers interested in using them. For example, only 20 percent of utility websites include customer usage monitoring, a seemingly simple piece of data for smart-metered utilities to deliver, the report found. (Interestingly, Northeast U.S. utilities lead the rest of the country in this regard, while the South lags.)
That's too bad, because those kinds of features make a big difference. Over the past four years, utilities that have invested in rich features and functionality have seen their web traffic grow much faster than has the mass of utilities that have left them alone, as the following chart indicates.
The problem goes beyond lack of effort, however. "Unfortunately, even utilities that offer digital channels have not succeeded in convincing customers to use them," the report states. One utility admitted to the firm that only 10 percent of customers were using the mobile application it had made available. (To be fair, that's actually a pretty good rate of uptake, compared to the single-digit percentages of customers who opt in to many voluntary utility programs.)
No wonder so few utilities are going mobile, if that's the kind of reception they're getting. But it doesn't have to be that way. Booz Allen lays out a series of suggestions across the categories of technology, operations and incentives. In simple terms, technology is all about how to reach, connect and interact with customers, operations management is about how to make that interaction part of the broader utility enterprise, and incentive management is about how to turn a portion of the utility's cost reductions and potential revenue streams back to the customer.
The technology-focused advice will be familiar to students of social media and digital marketing: keep the format and messaging consistent across multiple platforms, and make sure they work at a level of quality consistent with all the online and mobile services customers get from the rest of the world.
On the operations side of things, Booz Allen's first piece of advice is to find partners that are already doing a better job of linking customers through technology, like banks for automatic bill payment or phone companies for pay-by-text. (That list could well include the many startups with online and mobile apps for utility-customer interaction.)
Utilities should also start using every customer interaction, whether it's a bill insert or a complaint call, to pump their digital and online offerings. Booz Allen also suggests investing in market and customer segmentation to fine-tune messages to different demographics.
But no matter how persuasive a utility's message might be, money talks even louder. Utilities should be able to obtain significant cost reductions by digitally engaging more customers. For example, Booz Allen found that customers receiving e-bills are 64 percent less likely than paper bill recipients to call live customer service. A 2011 study for Chicago utility Consolidated Edison showed they're 22 percent more likely to make on-time payments than paper bill recipients. The report suggests they give part of those savings back to customers when, say, they pay their bills online, or get friends or family to sign up for the utility's new mobile app.
At the more ambitious end, online communities of like-minded customers could participate in energy efficiency competitions or crowdsource common questions about new programs and payment schemes -- as well as serve as rich veins of data for utilities to mine, the report added. But utilities have a long way to go with their Facebook and Twitter outreach -- barely 11 percent of social media users reported using social media services to communicate with their utility companies, according to a 2012 Pike Research survey cited in the report.
Vertically integrated utilities hold monopoly power over their customers today, but the spread of distributed energy -- rooftop solar, backyard batteries, net-zero-energy homes -- is starting to change that. Retail energy giants, third-party solar installers, telco and broadband providers, home security firms, and deep-pocketed challengers like the Google/Nest Labs/Dropcam triumvirate are making inroads into residential energy in a way that could threaten utilities long-term financial stability.
Maybe that's why utilities are promising to take this seriously. Wednesday's report cited a 2014 Utility Week/Wipro survey that asked utilities to rank their customer "centricity," including their use of digital communications. Only 14 percent ranked themselves as "excellent" today -- but 62 percent expected to be there within the next year.

Article: Resilient modernisation: Morocco's agency in Red Cross projects from Hassan I to the Rif Republic (1886-1926)[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: From the end of the 19th to the beginning of the 20th century, Morocco's modernizing projects included plans for signing up to the Geneva Convention and creating a local Red Cross/Crescent society. These plans initially stemmed from the convergence of Moroccan administrative/military reforms and Spanish "regenerationist" interventions. They ran parallel to developments in leading Islamic countries such as Egypt, Persia and the Ottoman Empire though they would have to wait till the country's independence from Franco-Spanish domination in 1956 to become a reality. Beyond their lack of actual results, those early initiatives would serve as legal ground for Morocco's "humanitarian sovereignty", tacitly confirmed by the provisions of the Algeciras Act of 1906. In the following two decades, the resilience of this sovereignty would reveal itself in the sustained competition between the Spanish and the French Red Cross for "humanitarian hegemony" in the country, and also in the repeated and nearly successful demands to establish a local Red Cross/Crescent that were made to the International Committee of the Red Cross by the insurgent leader Abdelkrim during the so-called Rif War.Asclepio; archivo iberoamericano de historia de la medicina y antropología médica 06/2014; 66(1).

Article: La lucha por la supervivencia de la embriología en una institución privada en la España del siglo XX: las crisis del Institut Biològic de Sarrià[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Durante el primer tercio del siglo XX, el jesuita Jaime Pujiula Dilmé (1869-1958) dominó con una autoridad casi clásica el cultivo de la embriología en nuestro país. El gran éxito de su proyecto personal, el Institut Biològic de Sarrià, sufrió un primer revés durante la II República con la llegada del gobierno de Azaña al poder. La Compañía de Jesús fue disuelta y sus bienes confiscados. El religioso, no obstante, fue capaz de solventar esta crisis mediante un acuerdo con la Societat Medicofarmacèutica dels Sants Cosme i Damiá, en cuyas dependencias volvió a montar su instituto. Más difícil resultó sobrevivir a la crisis vivida durante la Dictadura Franquista. La edad del Padre y su fuerte personalidad, autoritaria y personalista, dificultó la creación de una escuela a su alrededor. El medro de uno de sus colaboradores, el Padre Joan Puiggrós Sala (1899-¿?), significó la desaparición progresiva de la embriología en el centro y la ocupación del nicho que ésta iba dejando por la bacteriología aplicada, mucho más rentable económicamente en aquellos tiempos de penurias.Asclepio; archivo iberoamericano de historia de la medicina y antropología médica 01/2014; 26(2).

ABSTRACT: En el presente trabajo damos a conocer nuevos hallazgos documentales sobre Crisóstomo Martínez, figura clave para entender la anatomía española del Barroco y el movimiento novator. Se aportan algunos nuevos datos biográficos sobre su probable fecha y lugar de nacimiento y su desconocida familia; igualmente se dan noticias relativas a unas primeras gestiones directas del autor con la Corona en 1683 para la solicitud de la pensión que le permitiría su viaje a París. Además, se analizan los diferentes informes elaborados para la deliberación última de la Corte en esta materia y se da cuenta de los problemas que sufrió el anatomista para el cobro de las cantidades acordadas una vez desplazado a Flandes. ABSTRACT: In this paper we present new documentary findings about Crisóstomo Martínez, a key figure in understanding the Spanish Baroque Anatomy and the movement called «novator». The documents presented show some new biographical data as well as some early news regarding the author's direct negotiations with the Crown in 1683 in order to apply for the grant that would allow him to take his famous trip to Paris. We also analyze the reports prepared for the final deliberation of the Court on this matter and the problems the artist encountered in collecting the sum that had been agreed upon once he moved to Flanders.Asclepio; archivo iberoamericano de historia de la medicina y antropología médica 01/2012; 64(1):189-212.
Article: [Political change, disease and healthcare reform: the response to the Toxic Oil Syndrome (Spain, 1981-1998)].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In 1981, Spain was threatened by the sudden appearance of an epidemic-like disease, one which was unknown to that date. The Toxic Oil Syndrome, as it was later named after the oil that caused it, thus demanded a response that became conditioned by the fact that the biological nature of the disease was unknown, but also, significantly by the complex situation in the country at that time. Spain was immersed in process of great political change, as well as a difficult economic situation, the authorities were obliged to react in not ideal conditions and in accordance with the very values that the new model of social relations that was being developed. This paper aims to look at the way in which the Toxic Oil Syndrome acted as a catalyst and accelerated the healthcare reform that, already prior to the outbreak of the epidemic, had been deemed necessary. This work focuses mainly on the response of the health system regarding those affected by the epidemic, as it was forced to treat a group of people with severe physical side effects which would lead to disability within a new framework of social relations. It thus aims to illustrate how many of the measures adopted were in accordance with the main ideas behind the reform, and also how these measures were precursors of those which were later applied to the population as a whole.Asclepio; archivo iberoamericano de historia de la medicina y antropología médica 01/2011; 63(2):521-44.

ABSTRACT: In Spain, during Franco's dictatorship (1939-1975) the teaching and divulgation of science were subordinated to the Catholic religion and many books defended a theistic and creationistic point of view of biology that accepted a literal interpretation of the Book of Genesis and denied the theory of evolution, especially as it relates to human origin. This article is devoted to the main books and characteristics of this way of thinking which reproduced arguments and metaphors of the pre-Darwinian natural theology, arguing that nature was ruled by God and living organisms were the results of his design.Asclepio; archivo iberoamericano de historia de la medicina y antropología médica 01/2011; 63(2):453-76.

ABSTRACT: One of the main obsessions of the early modern era was that of determining the notions of true and false, in order to apply them to various fields of knowledge and thus establish the divide between the lawful and unlawful. This trend was to have a particular impact on the fields of religion and science, where it became necessary to distinguish not only between true and false spirits, relics or miracles, but also between genuine and fake astrologers and alchemists. Situated in the middle ground between idealism and materialism, alchemy was prime territory for such tensions, as was demonstrated by a trial held in 1593 at the Jeronymite monastery of Santa Enracia in Saragossa, whose prior accused a friar of making "silver out of smoke and jewels from goblins".Asclepio; archivo iberoamericano de historia de la medicina y antropología médica 01/2011; 63(2):319-48.

ABSTRACT: The evolution of Amado Nervo's novellas shows a constant communication with the paradigmatic shifts in the field of psychopathology. His metafictional constructs foreground a playful treatment of some of medicine's key ideas. In some cases, the narrow limits of positivistic psychopathology are overcome in order to anticipate notions that obtain scientific status with modern psychology.Asclepio; archivo iberoamericano de historia de la medicina y antropología médica 01/2011; 63(1):65-88.

ABSTRACT: The institution "Junta do Exame do Estado Actual e Melhoramento Temporal das Ordens Regulares" (Examination Council for the Actual State and Temporal Improvement of the Religious Orders) was created in November of 1789. Among other things, each Religious House should inform that institution about its heritage either the movables and the landed estates. The inventorying included all the goods belonging to wards and drugstores. In this paper, we aim to study those places using records obtained from a variety of Religious Houses with no regional or Religious Order preferences. We will try to give answers to questions related to that spaces such as 'Which objects could be found inside the Houses?'; 'Were they properly equipped?'; and 'Were there big differences between them in what concerns Religious Orders and Houses locations?'.Asclepio; archivo iberoamericano de historia de la medicina y antropología médica 01/2011; 63(1):123-54.
Article: [Didn't it matter to him absolutely?: Juan Vilanova and the controversy about tertiary man].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: During the founding period of palaeoanthropology, the postulate about tertiary age of humankind was an outstanding subject. First proposals were based on supposed proofs about ancient lithical industry (eoliths). Some discoveries of human fossil remains complicated that issue, because they were dated as pliocene or oldest. This controversy about so-called "tertiary man" soon arrived to Spain. Juan Vilanova y Piera, palaeontologist and professor at Madrid, dealt with it from an antievolutionist point of view. When a human fossil skeleton, included in the Botet's collections, with several apparently primitive traits arrived to Valencia from Argentina, Vilanova got reasserted and exposed his ideas about this question more intensely.Asclepio; archivo iberoamericano de historia de la medicina y antropología médica 01/2011; 63(2):379-404.

ABSTRACT: The Spanish diary can surprisingly not be found in his bounded diaries from his American travels, but in a separate folder of his legacy in Berlin, where Humboldt collected material which he wanted to use for his publication about Spain. So it remained undiscovered until recently. Humboldt's notes contain geognostic descriptions as well as his observations about climate, vegetation, electricity of the atmosphere, etc. The comparison with Humboldt's publication of 1825 facilitates to gain insight into his scientific methods.Asclepio; archivo iberoamericano de historia de la medicina y antropología médica 01/2011; 63(2):545-72.
Article: [The banishment of the marvellous. Hermaphrodites and sexual mutants in Enlightenment Spain].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This article presents a historical synthesis in order to trace how the collective belief in the existence of hermaphrodites and sex-changes was slowly eroded in the changing medical and cultural context of Enlightenment Spain. In order to explain this change, three interlinked processes are outlined. First, the naturalization of the monster and the disappearance of the "marvellous" in Enlightenment science. Second, the consolidation of modern legal or forensic science and the rise of the medical specialist as the relevant authority in the determination of sexual identity. Third, the emergence of the notion of fundamental biological differences between the sexes. The article concludes by discussing the consequences of these shifts for early nineteenth-century Spanish medicine.Asclepio; archivo iberoamericano de historia de la medicina y antropología médica 01/2011; 63(1):7-38.

This week I continue my series traveling through the 68th edition (2015) of A Guide Book of United States Coins. This familiar red-covered reference book has been published yearly since 1946 (the first issue having a 1947 cover date to preserve shelf life). At the forthcoming Whitman Coins & Collectibles Expo in Baltimore in the last week of March the 69th edition will be launched, after which it will be available from bookstores, coin dealers and hobby shops nationwide, as well as on the Whitman Publishing, LLC website.
Welcome to my latest commentary on the narrative found in A Guide Book of United States Coins, 68th edition, dated 2015. You can follow by looking at the pages as or after you read this. Today the Guide Book of United States Coins is the one-volume standard reference library for most collectors. To be sure it doesn't including everything -- far from it.

Mallard Hen Egg Impacted??
Hi there. We own a waterfowl refuge in Central California. However, we have two Mallards (Hen & Drake), same for Speckled Geese, and four chickens...Reds, as part of our two legged family. For months and months we get one duck egg per day. Then all of a sudden 2 days ago our hen has become silent and less interactive with us, and looking as if she is about to drop 4 eggs, but fails to produce. She normally is the most vocal of all the coup. She is just hanging out in her usual roost, but doesn't come to say Hi when we get near, like usual. Her behind is swollen and dragging on the ground for the most part. She is easy to handle, but I don't want to upset her if there is something going on. And, he is fussing over her constantly. Any suggestions as to what is going on? There have been no changes in their habitat or routines...even the temperature has been pretty mile for Central California.

Gizmos, Gadgets and Goodies Guide - April 2003 - FlexiglowEach month here at TweakTown we receive many smaller, cheaper and interesting computer products which we cannot transform into a full blown review on its own. So none of you miss out on any of these funky items, we have initiated our very own monthly Gizmos, Gadgets and Goodies Guide, by Shawn "Toxic" Baker, filled with a range of different computer products from all edges of the globe for your viewing pleasure!
Flexiglow are a company that we have seen around for a little while though unfortunately we had never received the opportunity to look at any of their products, until now. Recently they were kind enough to send us over three of their more recent products to look at and we thought it would be an excellent way to start our very first GGG Guide. For more information on Flexiglow products their website can be seen here.
- Cold Cathode Bubble Light
Case modding is defiantly one of those parts in the computer world which is growing quicker then people ever expected. Like most people probably know, case modding started back in the day with installing more fans to help push more air through your case; this of course resulted in cutting your case which in other words was modding.
The first item we are looking at this month is the Bubble Light released by Flexiglow recently. The bubble light kit consists of two smaller cold cathodes, instructions, on/off/flash switch and an inverter which is everything you need to get it installed into your case and start seeing some new lighting. Installation is an absolute breeze and nobody should have a problem installing them, unfortunately the first thing you notice about them is how they are nowhere near as bright as your normal cold cathode. This instantly gives the feeling that they are designed for people to see and not emit a huge amount of light.
Flexiglow are trying to push to have light externally attached to your case and you should find with a simple drill hole you shouldn't have any troubles mounting it to the top, front or side - even at the rear of the case if you wanted to light up the back.
The quality of the kits is excellent and being available in four different colors, you shouldn't have a problem finding one to suit your cases colour scheme. The colours available are:
Blue - This is defiantly the brightest out of the group and since a lot of people choose to go for a Blue colour scheme this one may be on to of the to buy list.
Green - Another very bright light that looks fantastic.
Red - Not as bright as the other two it would defiantly be one that you may want to make visible straight through a window or externally on the case. Being a big fan of red it defiantly looks the best, plus when installed I think it made my computer faster...;)
Orange - Definitely the dull one of the group, emitting the least amount of light, it's defiantly at the bottom. All three other colours give off a very vibrant look which the orange cannot seem to do.
Overall the kit is fantastic and if you are looking for something to stick on the outside of your case, this may be exactly what you're after. Like most case modding products it adds a bunch of new wires you have to hide but it's now expected when it comes to purchasing lights.

Unsigned Morrow still talking with interested teams
Sep 18, 2013, 9:58 AM EDT
The summer has come and gone, training camp is well underway, and former Dallas Stars captain Brenden Morrow still doesn't have a contract. It sounds like the league hasn't forgotten about the 34-year-old forward though.
There are several teams interested in Morrow, reports the Dallas Morning News. He's negotiating, but after his brief stint in Pittsburgh last season, he's looking for one thing in particular.
"There's a lot that goes into it, and money is a part of it," Morrow said. "But, at the same time, I want to be on a team where I think I can win, where I think I can contribute to a winner. I don't have a lot of years left, so I'd love to get a couple of runs in there."
He's an injury risk and his age is a factor, but Morrow is still capable of chipping in offensively and brings years worth of leadership experience. It's not hard to envision teams wanting him to serve in a complimentary role. For the right price, of course.
- 22bju - Sep 18, 2013 at 10:37 AM
Teams must feel he doesn't have much left to give. 34 is not real old, and this guy could really play at one time.
- phillyphanatic77 - Sep 18, 2013 at 11:03 AM
Well the $64 million cap ceiling has locked out quite a few productive vets. Morrow can still play but teams want the young kids on cheap ELCs, alteast this season, before the cap goes back up.
- jpelle82 - Sep 18, 2013 at 11:26 AM
you hit the nail on the head. him wanting to play for a "winner" only compounds the issue for him. his "wants" will subside when he realizes his "need" for a job when the season starts and he doesnt have one yet. guys get hurt, he will get signed somewhere for a 1 yr deal, probably cheap. with more cap room and a decent performance he could then get what he "wants" before next season starts. i think he's probably partially enjoying skipping the rigors of training camp while weighing his options.
- ntvd7 - Sep 18, 2013 at 11:01 AM
Get this man a contract!!!!!
- amityvillefun - Sep 18, 2013 at 11:06 AM
Didn't Pittsburgh like him?
- jpelle82 - Sep 18, 2013 at 11:37 AM
not enough to pay him what he is probably asking. if my memory serves me, i'm pretty sure he was scratched for a game or two in the playoffs too.
- illashell - Sep 18, 2013 at 12:22 PM
He wasn't a healthy scratch, he had a split kneecap and missed a few games.
- f2maestro - Sep 18, 2013 at 11:56 AM
I enjoyed watching him contribute from the time he was acquired to the end of the regular season, much like the other Penguins acquisitions (Murray, Iginila). He was scratched a few times in the Playoffs and didn't show all that much drive/energy/want during the Penguins run.
- c9castine - Sep 18, 2013 at 6:59 PM
yeah but not enough to sign him again for multiple mil when there is one spot if that left in the offense. pierre lebrun actually said pittsburgh is still talking to him, but even at that i dont see it happening, they are still over the salary cap as of today.
- snipedanglecelly13 - Sep 18, 2013 at 12:46 PM
I'd say come to Detroit but we had to sign cleary….lol

As a couple looking for a quiet break this was a good place to stay, good value for money. However there is zero atmosphere so if you're looking to meet others, I would consider something else. It's about a 30 minute, nice walk into Sorrento. Easy walk to the train station at Sant Agnello. Breakfast was pretty decent too!

Found a substitute for Glass Wax
rosesr4meOctober 20, 2012
After discovering that Glass Wax is no longer produced, I went on a mission to find a substitute and found it in the garage. I sprayed Meguiar's Quik Wax on a paper towel and wiped down my patio door windows. Very easy to buff off (no dusty residue). So far it seems to keep the windows cleaner than with cleaning alone.
I will next be trying it my kitchen appliances, in an attempt to replace the old Jubilee kitchen wax that has also been discontinued. I am very optimistic with this stuff!
I am sure any other brand of the "spray on" detailing waxes would also work.

Tripp Lite 12-Outlet 3600 Joule Eco Home/Business Theater Surge Protector
Reviewed by 3 customers

It's great so far
Comments about Tripp Lite 12-Outlet 3600 Joule Eco Home/Business Theater Surge Protector:
I purchased this one because it was inexpensive, yet was a battery backup surge protector. My predecessor in this position had two or three stick surge protectors that were probably older than I am, and there were extension cords running to and fro for peripheral equipment as well. I wanted a battery backup surge protector to protect both my computer and the server computer in my office, as well as numerous other machines and equipment that required plugs; however, I didn't want to buy the well-known brand of battery backup surge protectors - they are overpriced, and they aren't transparent enough for me, in that when I was researching a couple of their models no website including theirs showed how many jules the models protected against - very frustrating. I hope this Tripp Lite has a very long life.
Don't know how to use this.
Comments about Tripp Lite 12-Outlet 3600 Joule Eco Home/Business Theater Surge Protector:
Are all the outlets supposed to work? I can only get a few to work. I have two surge protectors like this and have the same issue. Does someone have a link that can give me information on how to use this? I'm ready to return it to the store for something more "old school." EXCEPT....I can't find the time. AND...I need to use this...even in its limited capacity.

I'm quite new to linq and struggling to create a query. I have a 'Customers' table and 'Orders' table, one-to-many relationship. How do I select those customers, who have oldest order with word 'special' in order description?
If oldest order does not contain this word, customer should not be in the result. If customer does not have orders, he should not be in the result. In other words, only those customers who have orders and whose oldest order has word 'special' in it should be there.
I hope I'm clear and thank you.

Tories vow to scrap Kyoto
Formal withdrawal from treaty comes after years of controversy
OTTAWA -- Canada will formally withdraw from the Kyoto accord on climate change, Environment Minister Peter Kent said Monday.
"The Kyoto Protocol does not represent the path forward for Canada," Kent told a news conference in the foyer of the House of Commons, after his return from an international climate-change summit in Durban, South Africa.
Related Items
"It's now clear that Kyoto is not the path forward for a global solution to climate change. If anything, it's an impediment.
"We are invoking Canada's legal right to formally withdraw from Kyoto."
The announcement marks the end of years of controversy -- as Prime Minister Stephen Harper's Conservative government repeatedly made it clear it would not be tied to the international commitment made by the previous Liberal government.
The Kyoto Protocol was signed in 1997 and ratified by most major countries except the United States. It committed industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions to below 1990 levels and provided financial help to developing countries to accomplish the task.
Although Canada had ratified the accord, it was not on track to meet its targets. Harper's Conservative government has opposed an extension of the Kyoto accord to future international agreements, arguing that other large emitting countries in the developing world, such as China and India, should be required to meet targets.
Kent blamed the former Liberal government for being "incompetent" by signing the accord and failing to meet its targets. As a result, he said, the current Conservative government, which took office in 2006, now faces "radical and irresponsible" choices if it is to avoid the $14 billion in international penalties he said it must pay for failing to meet those targets as a signatory to the accord.
Kent said in order to comply with Kyoto, dramatic action would need to be taken to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions.
"To meet the target under 2012 would be the equivalent of either removing every car, truck, ATV, tractor, ambulance, police car and vehicle of every kind from Canadian roads, or closing down the entire farming and agricultural sector and cutting heat to every home, office, hospital, factory and building in Canada."
But the minister was immediately blasted by opposition critics for abandoning attempts to find a solution to global warming, and for using scare tactics to explain his rationale.
NDP environment critic Megan Leslie accused Kent of "fearmongering" and of spreading misinformation. Leslie said Kent was not telling the truth when he warned of billions of dollars in international penalties.
"They are just trying to hide their failures here by constructing this scary story and then saying 'Hey it wasn't us, it was the Liberals.' "
Greenpeace Canada spokesman Mike Hudema said in a written statement that "this is a further signal that the Harper government is more concerned about protecting polluters than people."
Over the weekend, the 195 members of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change finished a marathon session two days behind schedule in Durban, charting a course toward a new regime to be finalized by 2015 to prevent dangerous human interferene with the atmosphere.
The framework agreement salvaged the Kyoto Protocol, but it became clear it would not include Canada's participation.
Although countries agreed on terms to establish a new global fund to support efforts in developing countries to adapt to climate change and promote clean energy growth, Kent said Canada would not provide any new money for the fund until the recipients committed to targets and transparent reporting of their efforts.

My adenium seedlings are rotting. Please help.
My 1 month old adenium seedlings are rotting.I have already lost two and this is my third seedling that is rotting. They looked healthy and was growing good before it started to rot all of a sudden starting from its leaves. I have 7 more seedlings in the same pot that I don't want to lose. This is the first time I'm growing adenium from seeds and I really don't know what to do about it. The weather was very sunny all these days but now it has started to rain and my balcony isn't receiving much sunlight as before. Could it be the reason? I water it normally each day. Should I reduce watering it? I'm afraid if they would dry out. Is there anything that I could do to save the remaining seedlings?
I definitely think you are over watering but am not sure that is the whole issue. What you show of the root actually looks healthy, but most of it is missing. Have you noticed any fungus gnats flying around or larvae in the soil? To me it appears that the roots have been eaten.
I normally wouldn't recommend doing this but I think you might be running out of options. I would remove the remaining seedlings from their current mix and wash the roots well, leaving no trace of soil. Dispose of the old potting mix and container, fill a new one with a sterile potting mix and replant your seedlings. You might consider adding a layer of fine sand over the soil once they are planted and don't water as much as you had been. Good luck.
My guess would be overwatering if they're not drying out enough outside where they're semi protected on your balcony. Not sure as the root looks healthy. Perhaps a parasite or virus? I'm new to growing adenium seedlings so really can't offer much advice as of yet. Hope your others survive.
Thank you for your suggestions. I live in a very windy place and the soil tends to dry pretty quickly and that is why I water it daily.
There aren't any fungus or flies but while sowing the seeds I found a little centipede in the soil. I removed the centipede and also checked if there were any more left and then I sowed the seed. Maybe I missed a centipede! Could that be a reason? And also can you please tell me what are the chances of survival if I replant it in fresh soil?
It wouldn't be damage from a centipede. Fungus gnat larvae are extremely small and not easily seen in the soil. Excessive watering often encourages an infestation and the roots end up looking just like the one pictured. The end of the root is gone as well as any small root hairs. What zone are you in? Unless it's maybe 10 a or b I can't imagine a need for daily watering, even with a well draining potting mix and wind. If you aren't in a very warm climate your seedlings should probably be inside, at least at night. I still think it looks like something is eating the root as it appears healthy. If there was rot the root would likely be soft and discolored.
Maybe someone on the Pests & Diseases Forum has an answer. You could try posting this there.
Here is a link that might be useful: Pests & Diseases forum
Thank you Karyn1, by what you say I think I definitely have some kind of infestation going on. I'm going to replant the remaining seedling because I don't want to risk losing it. But I'm worried if they will flourish if I replant.
The end of the root was still intact but its outer covering was gone. Maybe something ate it up. Thank you for your suggestion, I'm also going to post this is in the pests and diseases forum. And as for the zone, I live somewhere in between 10a and 10b. I'm from south India and its really warm here.
Perhaps stick the dirt in a microwave for a bit to sterilize it or use a weak solution of a systemic pesticide in the dirt before replanting. Though not sure if a weak pesticide would hurt the seedlings with them being so young or not. Maybe someone will comment if this is a good or bad idea. Either way, hope you can save some of your seedlings.
Definitely a tropical climate. I'm jealous! As for microwaving or baking soil, it can be done, but the smell is horrendous and you kill off any beneficial microrganisms along with the bad. I wouldn't saturate the soil with an insecticide either. I think it's easier to just replace it with new soil and preferably a new container as well. Let us know if anyone on the Pests & Diseases forum is able to confirm an infestation or diagnose what is going on.
I second karyn1's advice on washing the roots, disposing the container/growing medium, and starting with fresh potting mix and pot. Also, make sure you are using a well-draining mix that doesn't have a lot of coarse (sharp) matter in it, such as volcanic rock, as the roots can be easily damaged.
Although adeniums, at least in my case, are very finicky when it comes to any semi-drastic changes in their lighting (often defoliating and then regrowing new leaves when they adjust to the change), but they are actually quite durable plants. You should be fine. Good luck!

My son is seven months old, perfectly happy and healthy, and is such a good boy but I just can't seem to snap out of this blue mood I've been in for months. I had no idea ppd could last this long. Does anyone know if this is normal?
I try my best to see all the happiness I have but any sad news, especially involving children, just sets my mood for days and there's little I can do to stop it.
