Understanding the process of adaptation to car-use reduction goals [An article from: Transportation Research Part F: Psychology and Behaviour]
This digital document is a journal article from Transportation Research Part F: Psychology and Behaviour, published by Elsevier in . The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Media Library immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser.Description: Using a more controlled experimental setting, the present study follows up two previous studies; a focus group study examining participants' own proposed adaptations of car use to various travel demand management measures, as well as quantifications of the expected extent of adoption of certain adaptations, and a study of actual behavioural responses to the introduction of a toll ring. An internet survey requiring respondents to state the frequency with which they would adopt various adaptation alternatives when given a small, medium, or large car-use reduction goal was conducted. The frequency with which a particular adaptation is implemented was not only found to vary with size of reduction goal, as expected, but also with trip purpose. The results were interpreted in the light of a cost-minimisation principle of adaptation.

For over four decades, while the Lama Sing group was giving information sought by individuals and groups, Al was off in his own incredible journeys on "the other side." NDE descriptions (near death experiences) often depict some of this, but the remarkable thing is that Al has "NDE's" at will every time he does a reading and leaves his physical expression behind, much like the process of "dying."
The purpose of this website is to share, not only the information given by Lama Sing, but also the insights obtained by Al during his journeys and his intent to return with full Consciousness in order to incorporate that Consciousness into his life on Earth.
I hope your visits here contribute to your expanding awakening.
Warm blessings,
Al Miner
Thank you to Jim McKelvey for most all the photography.

Wide Range of Works in a Variety of Media by Matthew Buckingham at Museo Reina Sofia
Likeness, 2009. 16 mm film. Dur 15 min. Variable dimensions. Courtesy of the artist and Murray Guy Gallery, New York.
Matthew Buckinghams exhibition, Time Proxies, brings together a wide range of works in a variety of media that address how we use memory, both personal and public, to define the present moment. In each of these sculptural, photographic, aural, and moving-image works, Buckingham exploits a different experience of time while inviting us to reconsider some of our most basic assumptions. Among the most fundamental of these is the notion of Universal Time, a term adopted internationally in the 19th century to denote the temporal scale used to divide the world into twenty four hours of solar time, thereby allowing for global coordination and synchronization of communication and transport. This historical reference reminds us that time is a cognitive construction that we use to tune ourselves to each other and our environment.
In Celeritas (2009), one of the new works in the exhibition, a phrase is silk screened onto a chalk board enclosed in a wooden cupboard these words are illuminated by light that has traveled a duration of___minutes &___seconds, inviting us to reflect on the speed of light as an imperceptible marker of time. (The travel time of the light falling on the cabinet is calculated and then written in with chalk). After the exhibition ends this information is erased; when the work is shown again the time is once again calculated for that specific situation. In this project, our sense of duration changes in relation to the present moment. We may find ourselves close to the limit of temporal perception, perhaps reminded that life unfolds somewhere between seemingly instantaneous light-speed and imperceptibly slow geological time.
In another work, The Six Grandfathers, Paha Sapa, in the Year 502,002 C.E. (2002), Buckingham shows a photograph of the Mount Rrushmore National Memorial as it would appear after 500,000 years. This monumental sculpture, with portraits of presidents George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln carved out of the granite mountain, has become unrecognizable. As erosion erased the monument, its cultural, political and social values faded away. The four effigies on Mount Rushmore are sometimes viewed as a symbol of mans victory over nature. But they may also be seen to allude to the oppression and subjugation of Native Americans (given that this mountain is part of lands considered sacred by the Sioux nation). Ultimately, however, the politics of Indigenous sovereignty may prove as susceptible to organic, natural temporality as to a constructed sense of time.
Everything I Need (2007), explores the different processes of memory activated by psychologist Charlotte Wolffs return visit to Berlin, her native city, 45 years after her emigration to Paris, and later London. In her autobiography, she recalls the feelings she had on this visit, an invitation from the L.74 collective of Berlin lesbians. Her text reflects on the difference between Berlin from the time of the Weimar Republic and the city as it is today. This installation comprises a double color projection with sound. One screen shows the inside of an airplane whose design is characteristic of the 1970s, in a long takes that evokes the gaze of a passenger lost in thought. The other recalls Wolffs thoughts by means of a series of projected intertitles. As her memories intertwine with the new reality of contemporary Berlin, they shape her vision of the present.
Likeness (2009), a new moving-image work, examines the ambiguities of time integral to portraiture and portrait painting. Focusing on the image of a small dog that appears in Velázquezs 1659 portrait of Felipe Próspero, son of Philip IV and Marianne of Austria, this film installation juxtaposes 16 mm projections, sound narrations and pieces of furniture wrapped in moving blankets, in order to muse on why we feel looked at by the painted likeness of a person (or an animal), and what type of psychological time unfolds between the painter, the sitter and the viewer. Such concerns resonate with other works included in the show, especially as they pertain to how we understand the past through biographyas in False Future (2007),and through material traces which often present themselves as enigmas, as seen in Burglar Alarm (2008), Peace and Anarchy (2004), and Image of Absalon to Be Projected Until It Vanishes (2001). For this show, Buckingham has also included a work that intervenes in the public space. Detour (2002), now occupies a marquee at the Ópera subway station in central Madrid where it displays a date and the URL of the Museo Reina Sofías website explaining how the city of Los Angeles was founded by the Spanish.
Matthew Buckingham was born in Nevada, Iowa in 1963, and currently lives in New York City. He studied at the Art Institute of Chicago (1984), received a BA from the University of Iowa (1988), an MFA from Bard College (1996) and attended the Whitney Independent Study Program (1997). His work has been seen in one-person and group exhibitions in various museums and galleries in Europe and the United States, including ARC / Musée dart moderne de la Ville de Paris, Paris (1998); Museum Moderner Kunst, Vienna (2003); The Whitney Museum of American Art, New York (2003); Whitechapel, London (2004); Camden Arts Centre, London (2007); Hamburger Bahnhof National Gallery, Berlin (2007) and Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago (2008); He was a 2003 recipient of the DAAD Artist in Berlin Fellowship.

Social scientists have a real opportunity to influence what politicians say in the run-up to the General Election
Academic researchers should have their say in holding policy promises to account. In this post first published on the LSE's Impact of Social Sciences blog, Jonathan Breckon charts the various activities around the country aimed at providing a rigorous evidence-base in the run-up to the UK's General Election. A whole range of economists, statisticians, social scientists and others are fact-checking what politicians and pundits say so that they don't get away with iffy promises or sound-bites. But the challenge in the boom of fact-checkers is getting the quality right.

So during the week are runs in the afternoon before she had dinner. Thanks for your help!
About a month and a half ago when we had our first snow of the season (I'm in Edmonton, Canada), I took her out in the jogging stroller bundled up in a snow suit and with a blanket covering her. We stayed out 30 minutes. It was fine, but her cheeks did get really rosy and she seemed really confused the whole time.
Since then I've stuck to going to the gym because it's been well below freezing and pretty icy since then. I've almost fallen on ice three times already just walking, I don't want to risk falling while out running with Leah and end up being stuck somewhere.
However, pre-baby, I loved running in the winter. Nothing would stop me, not snow, not ice, not cold. It was invigorating. Now, however, I can't be out with her when it's 10* F for the 45-60 minutes I'd usually go for.

Dear Friend of Literacy,
Gaby dreamed of becoming a nurse. Although her life moved naturally around Spanish-speaking people, she knew deep down the language barrier would crush that dream and that the longer she waited to learn English, the harder it would be for her to succeed. It was going to be a long road, but she was confident that she would accomplish her goal. A family member introduced her to the Literacy Connection. She became a student in the English as a Second Language (ESL) program seven years ago. Her tutors took their time with her and taught her at a comfortable level how to put her words into writing, to use proper English, and to master punctuation. Her current tutor has been with her for the past six years and has provided nearly 400 hours of instruction.
According to Gaby, "It's not enough to be part of the problem; you must be part of the solution." By advancing her education, her communication with others has improved tremendously and she is more confident. In the immediate future, she would like to take entry level exams for college courses. According to Gaby, the effects of a cultural transition could be the beginning of a better life; one that allows her to leave a legacy for her children.
You're making a difference!
Our services of basic literacy, ESL, family literacy, citizenship, math, and special services for students with learning disabilities are supported by your generosity.
Our learners' top goals achieved in Fiscal 2014 include: getting a job or better job, improving employability skills, improving scores on standardized tests, increasing involvement in their children's educational activities and attaining consumer skills. The adults in our program in Fiscal 2014 were the parents of 499 dependent children.
Per www.proliteracy.org, research shows that the way to improve education outcomes for children is by improving their parents' skills. Won't you help parents improve their literacy skills and create better futures for their children?
Thank you for your support. Our Board of Directors, Staff and Office Volunteers wish you and your family safe, healthy and happy holidays!

Research Examines Newly-Drafted NFL Quarterbacks
By editor
Originally published on Thu April 26, 2012 6:21 am
Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. As the pro football draft begins today, a student at Yale has provoked some discussion. Economic student Sam Dorward reviewed career statistics, and he says new draft picks have better careers if they wait a year to start at quarterback. It worked for Drew Brees. But the teams with the top picks this year are unlikely to be patient. Andrew Luck is going to the Colts, Robert Griffin to the Redskins. And both teams will likely start their high-priced prospects right away. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright National Public Radio.

Floor Safes
Two general lines of thought exist when it comes to home safes. Some people prefer to make a security statement with a safe. A large gun safe, for instance, looks powerful and physically intimidating. Others prefer a subtler approach, concealing home safes in walls or floors.
Floor safes are small safes installed in concrete floors so the safe can be easily hidden. Well-secured and concealed, such safes are an excellent choice for safeguarding small valuables, such as passports, jewelry, and cash.
Floor Safe Advantages
Because it's encased in concrete, an in-ground safe offers excellent burglar protection. When properly installed, it takes great effort to lift out, pry out, or otherwise tamper with the safe--effort most burglars aren't willing to expend. After all, every minute in a home increases the thief's chance of detection or arrest. Breaking into the safe takes more time than most thieves can afford.
Due to their relatively complicated installation, in-ground safes are not as common as well safes. A burglar who checks behind paintings and mirrors for hidden safes might not think to move furniture or rugs.
Floor safes with recessed combination or key locks make concealment even easier. Other customized options include drop slots and depository chutes for quickly adding valuables, and digital electronic locks. The safes come in a range of sizes and shapes to fit a wide range of environments.
Limitations of Concealed Safes
It's important to remember a floor safe is designed solely to foil burglars and is not fireproof. While the sides and bottom of the safe are encased in concrete, the steel door remains exposed and does not include any fire-resistant material. Combination burglar/fire safes are available, but are standalone safes which anchor to wood or concrete floors.
The only other limitation is size. Designed to be small and inconspicuous, the safes have a limited storage capacity. They are, however, ideal for small items too important to lose to burglary. Call one of our trained professionals today to discover what type of safe best fits your needs.

GE Generator Systems is educating families about proper emergency preparedness during National Preparedness Month this September.
Residential power outages, often caused by strong storms or other natural disasters, do more than leave households in the dark. They can also do damage to a family's pocketbook.The U.S. Department of Energy contends that power outages cost Americans a total of $150 billion each year as recent as 2009. In one week alone, an average of 3.5 million Americans will experience a power outage, according to figures from the Edison Electric Institute.September is National Preparedness Month, sponsored by Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). All month long, GE Generator Systems—a coalition member of FEMA's Ready campaign—is educating the public about the importance of emergency preparedness."A homeowner can incur greater costs from a single prolonged power outage than from investing in preparation measures, such as installing a standby generator system before an emergency occurs," said Amanda Grandy, marketing manager for Briggs & Stratton® Standby Power, which is the exclusive licensee of GE Generator Systems. "A standby generator protects a home's appliances from losing functionality when utility power is knocked offline and gives families peace of mind after a hurricane or strong storm."Without sufficient home preparedness, damage from a power outage can leave a lasting financial impact on a family from costs associated with food loss and home repair.According to the Department of Health and Human Services, refrigerated food tends to go bad after four hours without power, so any type of thawing meat or poultry should be discarded, along with soft cheeses and dairy. For a family with a full-stocked freezer and fridge, those guidelines could easily result in more than $200 worth of tossed food.In addition to spoiled food replacement, costs typically associated with a power outage include basement and appliance repairs, and extended hotel stays. GE Home Generator Systems found that the average costs associated with a single power outage can equate to:

Worthy will shoot up boards because of the numbers he'll put up at the Combine, Thompson is considered a top 10 Draft pick at DT. I think Worthy ends up being the highest rated among all the DT's in the draft and ends up being a top 14 pick.
I know it's not DT, but Brown is usually rated around 9th or 10th overall among all the prospects for the upcoming draft.
Need a DT? Some Suggestions

Dillon's Rolling Western: The Last Ranger hits this April
Dillon's Rolling Western looked like a nice tower defense game, but the original game was bogged down by an incredible grind. A sequel, titled Dillon's Rolling Western: The Last Ranger, was announced at today's Nintendo Direct.
The game will introduce new team members who need to be defeated before they'll join you, as well as a train that will choo-choo throughout each level and requires protection from Dillon. Hopefully the core gameplay is jazzed up a bit to make it more interesting and tactical, so that the overall package can be better.
Dillon's Rolling Western: The Last Ranger hits the 3DS eShop on April 11.

Bucs have high hopes for rookie DE Steven Means
TAMPA, Fla. (AP)
The telephone rang on the second day of the NFL draft a little bit earlier than Steven Means anticipated.
The 6-foot-4, 250-pound defensive end wasn't highly recruited coming out of high school and didn't receive an invitation to the NFL combine following a standout college at Buffalo either.
So when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers called in the fifth round last month, Means understandably was thrilled and surprised.
The Bucs believe they selected a player who has a chance to develop into an effective pass rusher.
Means thinks so, too.
''I didn't know if I was going to be drafted ... Some teams were talking to me about signing me as a free agent,'' Means, the 147th overall pick, said..
''I've always had that tough road to go through. I've always had to sneak through the back door,'' he added. ''It wasn't alarming for me to not go to the combine because I've been going through this my whole life.''
Means impressed the Bucs during Buffalo's pro day in Orchard Park, N.Y., then performed during a personal workout for the team.
Although some NFL scouts projected him as a linebacker, Tampa Bay intends to give Means an opportunity to earn playing time as a defensive end.
Through rookie minicamp and the start of voluntary workouts known as organized team activities, coach Greg Schiano likes what he's seen.
''Steven has been impressive in his time here so far. He's in good physical condition. He's got a lot of great physical traits, and he's very eager and hungry to learn the system and to work at it,'' Schiano said. ''He's a guy who does extra. If he can continue to keep that mindset, he's got a chance to be good.''
Means was a second-team All-Mid-American Conference selection as a senior, when he was credited with making 77 tackles, including 11 for losses. He had 6 1-2 sacks last season, finishing his career at Buffalo with 18 1-2 sacks - the fourth-highest total in school history - and 29 1-2 tackles for loss overall.
Despite not being asked to participate in the NFL combine, Means said just hearing from teams that said they might be interested in bringing him into camp was enough to keep him encouraged.
Now that he has an opportunity, he's determined to make the most of it. Defense, special teams - he just wants to contribute.
''I'm willing to do whatever I have to do,'' Means said.
Tampa Bay had the NFL's worst pass defense a year ago, and a sagging pass rush was part of the problem. The team drafted cornerback Johnthan Banks and acquired veterans Darrelle Revis and Dashon Goldson to help shore up the secondary, while Means and fourth-round selection Akeem Spence have been brought in to help out on the defensive line.
Means is confident he has the skills, work ethic and temperament to be a successful pro, noting there's some nastiness to his game.
''I came up in an environment where it's not easy. I don't like anybody touching me, and that's probably why I'm a decent pass rusher,'' the rookie said.
''I don't like offensive linemen, especially, touching me,'' Means added. ''So I want to get them off me as quick as possible. ... I'm definitely quick-tempered on the field. I get mad at someone just lining up across from me thinking they can block me.''

This primer is silicone based. This worked well with my skin since it covers my large pores. Did not cause acne or clogged pores.
Watery texture is a plus. I tend to use more product because of the watery cosistency.

I've tried a couple of primers in the past, but didn't really see any benefits from them. I love Laura Mercier mineral powders so I thought I'd give this a try. The tube itself is really messy so you have to store it with the nozzle pointing up othewise it goes everywhere! It helps the loose mineral powder last a bit longer (I don't think its needed with the pressed compact). It doesn't make a huge difference for me personally though. I have oily/sensitive skin and it hasn't made me break out because its oil free which is always good, but I'm still on the fence with this.

last a lot longer than without this primer. It's a thin, quite runny primer but it goes on smoothly
and leaves your skin soft. Although if you have dry skin I would recommend that you use a moisturiser before applying this primer.
However the downside is that it doesn't have any UVA or UVB protection, which is something
I take very seriously and I prefer having a primer with an SPF/PA included rather than having
to use a sunscreen separately like the MAC Prep+Primer Face Protect SPF50
If you are looking for something to make your foundation last longer I would also recommend the Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray!

I was a bit skeptical to buy this primer since it was a new product at the time I bought it..however let me say I've been using it for a year now and I absolutely LOVE it! I use Laura Mercier silk crime foundation and this primer makes my makeup last all day n night hardly have to retouch...also makes my skin smooth foundation goes on smoothly and looks Flawless!! I know they have different types of primers I'm def trying out the rest. Love all her products.

I really like this primer, it is light but hydrating, and gives me a smooth base for liquid foundation when applied over moisturiser. It doesn't make my dry skin flake and my make up stays put for 10 hours +. The price is fine as I only need a pea size amount each time, so the 50mL has lasted me a little over a year. My only gripe is the packaging - the primer can leak into the lid sometimes (ie if you stand it upright with the lid down or if you take it travelling in your makeup bag). It doesn't actually leak out of the tube though and is fine if you store it horizontally on your dresser for every day use. I will repurchase.

I bought this a couple years ago and wasn't that thrilled. Bought it again about a month or so ago. Not that thrilled. While it makes my make up go on smoother and it does help somewhat with my oily skin, I don't think it makes THAT much of a difference....to buy it a 3rd time! LOL Going to try the new one by VS and see what happens :)

This stuff didn't do anything...it was kind of liquidy too. It didn't help my makeup look better or stay on better, nothing. I've used Too Faced and Smashbox and Hourglass, all of which do what they are supposed to do. This did absolutely nothing, complete waste.

This primer is worth every penny. I have sensitive combination skin (oily t-zone, dry everywhere else) and this primer manages to even everything out. It makes my oily areas more matte and slightly moisturizes my dry areas. I normally apply it before LM's tinted moisturizer, but I've used it with a basic powder foundation and even on its own. It covers up pores and ensures that your makeup lasts all day.
I've tried lots of other primers and keep coming back to this one. Great for oily/combination skin.

Worse primer I've used, actually made my foundation WORSE. Turned me into a greaseball in two hours, and started separating my Chanel foundation in splotches. My foundation NEVER did that, so I know it's the primer. Blegh.

I love Laura Mercier face products, but I just couldnt make this one work for me, and oh how I tried.
I had the Laura Mercier Mineral Primer in the liquid formula.
It feels lovely going on, and looks nice once it has set it really seems to balance out the skin.
The problem I encountered with it however, is that it doesnt seem to uniformly absorb into my skin, and as a result my makeup gathers in some spots on my face (a problem I dont usually have).
I tried everything to make it work:
- Applied to clean and slightly damp skin;
- Applied to clean and very dry skin;
- Applied over moisturiser;
- Applied over sunscreen;
- Applied over hydrating serum;
- Applied over aloe vera gel;
- Applied, allowed to absorb, then misted with Avene Thermal Water;
- Applied, allowed to set, then smoothed over with a sponge;
- Applied, allowed to set, then followed by primer powder.
I have also tried exfoliating in different ways, and still the same result.
No matter what I did, I always ended up with the same end result makeup that gathered on random spots on my face.
I have since concluded that liquid mineral primer is just not suitable for my skin I will stick to mineral primer powders, and I am looking at purchasing the Laura Mercier Mineral Primer Powder to give that a go.

Department of Homeland Security:
Ongoing Challenges in Creating an Effective Acquisition Organization
GAO-07-948T: Published: Jun 7, 2007. Publicly Released: Jun 7, 2007.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-7773
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
In fiscal year 2006, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) obligated $15.6 billion to support its broad and complex acquisition portfolio. Since it was tasked with integrating 22 separate federal agencies and organizations into one cabinet-level department, DHS has been working to create an integrated acquisition organization while addressing its ongoing mission requirements and responding to natural disasters and other emergencies. Due to the enormity of this challenge, GAO designated the establishment of the department and its transformation as high-risk in January 2003. This testimony discusses DHS's (1) challenges to creating an integrated acquisition function; (2) investment review process; and (3) reliance on contracting for critical needs. This testimony is based primarily on prior GAO reports and testimonies.
The structure of DHS's acquisition function creates ambiguity about who is accountable for acquisition decisions because it depends on a system of dual accountability and collaboration between the Chief Procurement Officer (CPO) and the component heads. Further, a common theme in GAO's work on acquisition management has been DHS's struggle to provide adequate support for its mission components and resources for departmentwide oversight. In 2006, DHS reported significant progress in staffing for the components and the CPO, though much work remained to fill the positions. In addition, DHS has established an acquisition oversight program, designed to provide the CPO comprehensive insight into each component's acquisition programs and disseminate successful acquisition management approaches departmentwide. However, GAO continues to be concerned that the CPO may not have sufficient authority to effectively oversee the department's acquisitions. In 2003, DHS put in place an investment review process to help protect its major complex investments. In 2005, GAO reported that this process adopted many acquisition best practices that, if applied consistently, could help increase the chances for successful outcomes. However, GAO noted that incorporating additional program reviews and knowledge deliverables into the process could better position DHS to make well-informed decisions. Concerns have been raised about how the investment review process has been used to oversee its largest acquisitions, and DHS plans to revise the process. DHS has contracted extensively for a broad range of services and complex acquisitions. The growing complexity of contracting for technically difficult and sophisticated services increases challenges in terms of setting appropriate requirements and effectively monitoring contractor performance. However, DHS has been challenged to provide the appropriate level of oversight and management attention to its contracting for services and major systems.

Given federal procurement's complex administrative and regulatory environment, Joanie Newhart's job has never been easy. Now it's getting harder.
Newhart is the Obama administration's point person for federal procurement reform, and she is charged with making sure the government has the best possible workers on the front lines of government acquisition. The 30-year veteran of federal contracting was appointed associate administrator of acquisition workforce programs in the Office of Federal Procurement Policy in 2010. Before that, she served at a half-dozen agencies as both a contractor and a federal employee.
A look at little-known agency experts who are pushing critical broad-based initiatives, plus other leaders whose influence bears watching.
Sequester-driven budget cuts have brought new pressures, and as federal workers retire, agencies risk losing their procurement know-how. Although getting agencies to use strategic acquisition to buy smarter remains her top priority, Newhart said developing the acquisition workforce is a very close second. That task, she said, becomes more critical as seasoned experts retire and agencies need up-and-coming acquisition experts who can step in with innovative procurement strategies.
"The current budget challenges present an opportunity for the acquisition workforce to help agencies buy smarter and save money," she told FCW. "This is critical because one out of every six federal dollars is spent on contracts. We are encouraging the acquisition workforce to continuously improve how taxpayer dollars are spent."
"Many of the structural reforms that we are implementing in government procurement will be sustainable because of Joanie's great work to integrate them into the recruitment, retention and training priorities of our acquisition community," said OFPP Administrator Joe Jordan.
