Companies Turn to Technology to Engage Consumers in Smart Energy Management
Most of us in America would argue that affordable and reliable energy access is a basic life necessity, possibly even a basic human right. However, JD Power & Associates recently reported that only 3% of consumers are actually reviewing their energy usage more than once a month.[read more]
Progressive Utilities Increasingly Engage Customers Behind the Meter
The days of merely managing wires and selling a commodity are winding down for utilities. They must compete with or embrace tech and services that give customers greater control over their homes, making it easier to reduce energy consumption, increase efficiency and ultimately save money.[read more]
"It bears noting that the definition includes production of heat. While a lot of the focus has been on micro-generation of electricity, in many US electricity markets, substantial penetration of solar-assisted air conditioning (either solar dehumidifying, cooling, or both) would also have substantial market impacts, since in summer-peaking regions, AC power demand is a driver for the annual demand ..."
"It would be more accurate to say that nuclear produces 99% of Virginia's emission-free electricity, since the EIA reports that nuclear is 36% of Virginia's total electricity production (3.5 GW of nuclear).It is a little appreciated fact that nuclear power makes it easy to achieve high levels of decarbonization of the grid; this amount of nuclear power does not get in the way of adding more ..."

DEFINITION of 'Competitive Devaluation'
A series of sudden currency depreciations that nations may resort to in tit-for-tat moves to gain an edge in international export markets. Competitive devaluation refers to a scenario in which an abrupt national currency devaluation by one nation is matched by a currency devaluation of another, especially if they both have managed exchange-rate regimes rather than floating exchange rates determined by market forces. Competitive devaluation is considered a "beggar-thy-neighbor" type of economic policy, since it amounts to a nation trying to gain an economic advantage without consideration for the ill-effects it may have on other countries.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Competitive Devaluation'
The act of currency devaluation or depreciation improves a nation's export competitiveness because it lowers the cost of goods exported from that nation for overseas buyers. For example, when the exchange rate is EUR 1 = $1.40, assume a European exporter sells a product in the U.S. at $10, which is equivalent to about EUR 7.14. If the EUR subsequently falls to 1.25, the exporter can slash the price of the product to $9 and still receive the equivalent of EUR 7.20 because each dollar now fetches more euros.
Currency devaluation also has a positive impact on a nation's trade deficit because it makes imports more expensive. This forces domestic consumers to look for local alternatives to imported products, which provides a boost to domestic industry. This combination of export-led growth and increased domestic demand usually contributes to higher employment and faster economic growth.
The negative aspect of currency devaluation is that it may lower productivity, since imports of capital equipment and machinery may become too expensive. As well, devaluation significantly reduces the overseas purchasing power of a nation's citizens.
Competitive devaluation is viewed as being harmful or deleterious to the global economy, because it may set off a round of currency wars that may have unforeseen adverse consequences, such as increased protectionism and trade barriers. At the very least, competitive devaluation may lead to greater currency volatility and higher hedging costs for importers and exporters, which may impede a higher level of international trade.

Why I go to church (or why I wear pants on Sunday)
Yes… I am a pastor so I kinda "have" to go. But even if I weren't… I would.
A few years ago I wasn't actively preaching, so I decided to skip church for a few weeks.
I slept in… puttered around the house in my underwear for a while… cleaned the garage… played with the kids… took a nap… put some pants on… took another nap… ate… went to bed.
After living six days of busy it sure felt nice to have one day of NOTHING TO DO!
I started going to church again and realized I had missed a few things…
- Happy people. Sure there are some knuckleheads at church… but there are knuckleheads at the bar, work, and neighborhood events too! What I've found is that at most churches there are a lot of happy people working on making their lives better, and somehow just being around them made me feel better.
- Helpful information. I'm a preacher so I know this… not every lesson is a homerun. I've struck out a few times and went home thinking, "Geez, if I were my pastor… I'd find something else to do on Sunday!" Having said that, most pastors work real hard to present God's ideas in a way on Sunday that will be helpful for living on Monday! Sometimes it is new information, sometimes just some inspiration. Sometimes it is a kick in the pants, and other times it is an arm around the shoulder. What I find though is that I need all of these things from time to time and church on Sunday is a pretty safe place to get it!
- Holy moments. I know you can have these on your own, BUT there is something unique that happens when a group of people are singing to, talking about, and trying to hear from God! It's the difference between watching the Super Bowl on TV in your living room and actually being there! I've had some amazing moments with God alone… but I can't deny that I've had some equally awesome moments with God surrounded by friends and other people who are listening to Him as well!
I understand why people skip church, but my experience showed me that getting up, putting my pants on and going to church usually has a payoff that makes the sacrifice worth it.
What do you think? Do you agree? Disagree? Let me know.
How to pray
Recently I've been reading a version of the Bible called "The Message." I like to read through this version of the Scriptures every couple of years because of the fresh way it presents classic ideas.
Today I read something about prayer that made me stop, pull out my pen, do some underlining, and make some notes!
Here's what I read:
"…when you come before God, don't turn that into a theatrical production either. All these people making a regular show out of their prayers, hoping for stardom! Do you think God sits in a box seat?
"Here's what I want you to do: Find a quiet, secluded place so you won't be tempted to role-play before God. Just be there as simply and honestly as you can manage. The focus will shift from you to God, and you will begin to sense his grace.
I LOVE this!
As a public speaker in general, and preacher in particular, it is easy to turn prayer into a demonstration of oratorical ability.
Jesus said, "Don't."
God doesn't care how eloquent I am. Besides that, even if I were a master orator… I'd be competing against every other prayer He hears… and I'm pretty sure there are lots of people with bigger vocabularies and more engaging presentations than me! In other words, if prayer is a performance… I'd get lost in the shuffle of great performers.
Fortunately, Jesus set me free from that way of thinking when He said, "Find a quiet, secluded place so you won't be tempted to role-play before God. Just be there as simply and honestly as you can manage. The focus will shift from you to God, and you will begin to sense his grace."
I can do that!
Be alone and genuine before God!
Say what you feel, think, believe, hope, dream, etc. THAT'S WHAT GOD WANTS TO HEAR!
He's not impressed with your big words and fake passion any more than He is impressed with artificial tears and trumped up faith. He wants you to be real… honest… just you!
I can do that!
Alone… honest… just me and God.
I can do that… and you can too!
And the good news is… that is what God is looking for! Someone who will be alone and honest with Him! He can and will help that person… that's what Jesus implied when He said, "you will begin to sense his grace."
Are you kidding me?
36 times.
According to WordPress that's how many times I posted in 2014! That's not really good for a guy who wants to and likes to write.
New year's resolution…
Write more!
You can't grow without this…
Rigorous, systematic, evaluation of yourself.
The evaluators can include others, but MUST include yourself… because at the end of the day, you know you best.
Right now I am evaluating my prayer life and my performance in the gym, among other things.
Sitting over a cup of coffee at Starbucks, talking to no one, reading a book, listening to the quiet whispers in my soul… I know some things are missing.
I've known this for a while… but I haven't known them as clearly or heard them as loudly as today.
Because today I set apart some time for a rigorous self evaluation.
Now, an evaluation is not necessarily a "let's beat the crap out of myself" session. Nope. It is an honest evaluation of where I am, whether or not I am happy here, and what I need to do to grow to the next level.
This exercise has many uses… in fact, it is helpful for every area of life: spiritual, physical, emotional, mental, relational, professional… and any other word that ends in "al" that you can think of!
I want my biceps and my faith to grow… so that requires that I spend some time evaluating!
A few practices that I've found to be helpful in this area include:
- Plan a regular meeting with yourself to evaluate yourself.
- Have a general outline that you follow during this meeting.
- BE HONEST and MAKE NO EXCUSES!
- Speak sternly to yourself when you must, and take every opportunity to celebrate what you can! You're not doing EVERYTHING wrong. You are undoubtedly doing a few things right. Point them out… and have a piece of cake to celebrate! ;-)
- Talk to God during this time.
- Make some notes! (Remember, a fair idea on paper is better than an excellent idea that is forgotten… because you didn't write it down!)
Well, that's what I think. How about you? Do you evaluate yourself? Do you find self-evaluation to be helpful?
What ideas do you have to make this a more efficient practice?
Working with a part-time/volunteer team
At Church180 we have a great team of pastors (missing in the picture above is our student pastor and our administrative assistant). Only one of our pastors is full time so we have to get creative to find a space where we are all available to meet and communicate.
One of the things that is working really well for us these days is online meetings!
We are currently using GoToMeeting. (The screen shot above was taken when we were experimenting with OoVoo).
Every Tuesday Night at 9 p.m. we connect online. Everyone takes a turn giving updates and asking questions that pertain to their area of oversight. It is a great opportunity to catch up, eliminate silos, and maintain organizational clarity.
This meeting takes one hour. After the meeting our administrative assistant sends out notes of the meeting to our executive pastor and myself.
Throughout the week I meet with our pastors on a one-to-one basis to trouble shoot, encourage, and plan ahead.
Once a month our pastors and spouses all huddle together for some "play time." We believe that the team that laughs together is much better equipped to work hard together.
Another resource that is working great for our team these days is all the tools on Google Drive! From calendars, to excel spreadsheets, to the ability to upload and share photos… we use this a lot! We can create, share, and edit documents online without having to meet face to face. Some documents that are always on include:
- Our teaching calendar
- Upcoming Event planning
- Budget
- Church/staff activity calendar
And then of course there is always texting, e-mail, and phone calls.
So, the three things that are making it possible for a part-time team doing full time work are:
- Weekly online meetings that keep us aware of the details.
- Shared documents on Google Drive that keep the details in order.
- Monthly team huddles that keep us laughing together.
If you work with a part-time and volunteer team what tools are you finding helpful?
"You're getting fat."
I've heard that TWICE today! Once from a friend… and once from the lovely and talented Mrs. Peterson.
Now keep in mind that in May I had abs that won second place in a physique show.
I've gone from hearing, "You're getting really thin" in May, to "You're getting fat" in October.
What's going on?!
I'll tell you…
I'm working on a dream.
I want to win my next physique show competition on May 9, 2015.
After the competition in May, when I came in second place, I asked the judges what I needed to do. They said, "You need to add size to your chest and arms." So I am. I workout five times per week, and I eat seven times a day… seven meals. Minimal junk-food… lots of meat, rice, and vegetables! And, believe it or not… I'm gaining weight! ;-)
Here's the thing…
To get to your goal you've got to be willing to go places you've not gone before and do things you've not done before.
In other words…
You've got to be willing to live like you've never lived.
I just read a quote that is stuck on the back of my eyelids:
"One does not discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time." Andre Gide
I'm not a big fan of being called "fat"… but I'm a HUGE fan of winning. I know that all of this excess fat/water weight I'm putting on now will begin coming off in January and by next May I'll be lean again with 8-10 pounds of muscle that I didn't have last year! And you know what? I'll undoubtedly hear things like, "You're looking really thin." ;-)
I want to win so bad next year that I'm okay putting on all this extra fat, water, muscle… even if it means being a bit uncomfortable now.
Now, this is a rather shallow goal, I will give you that. BUT, the idea is not shallow at all. The idea of leaving your comfort zone, being misunderstood, not feeling, looking, acting like the old you… in order to create a new you… THAT is something worth hanging on to! It's a journey worth taking!
So, are you willing to be called "fat" because you are gaining muscle? "Tightwad" because you are not spending money so you can get out of debt? "Boring" because you've decided not to party and instead invest those hours in writing that book?
Remember the quote…
"One does not discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time." Andre Gide
Evolution of a dream
Starting this weekend at Church180 we are going to learn how dreams go from beginning to end… and what happens in between!
I'd bet that at some point in your life you had a dream… a vision of what you wanted to be or do.
But somewhere along the line your dream met reality.
Then you made a decision… to stop dreaming or to start moving.
We are going to learn some lessons from the life of a man named Joseph (sometimes referred to as "The Prince of Egypt") that will help all of us as we move towards making the dream a reality!
If you can't be at Church180 at 10 a.m. on Sunday, then make some time next week to go online and follow this conversation at our website - right here. (If you have some time before then you might want to catch up on our conversation called, "Elbow Room".)
What a husband who just lost his wife told me today…
This is Kelvin and Mary…
Mary died last Thursday.
This morning I ate breakfast with Kelvin.
We talked mostly about Mary.
Kelvin told me something that I need to tell you. He told me that I could.
"Don't fight over the little things." That's what Kelvin said.
So she forgot to pay a bill. Don't fight over it.
So he left his shoes in the hallway. Don't fight about it.
Kelvin and Mary didn't fight. Seriously, they didn't.
Looking back he says that even the small moments of tension they had weren't worth getting stressed out over.
What matters is love. Memories. Working together. Building something together.
Sometimes we fight over the little things… assuming that she/he will be there later on to clear things up.
She may not be.
Kelvin encouraged me to tell you to live with grace. Kindness. Patience. Love. Live today like she might be gone tomorrow.
That's what Kelvin said.
Sometimes you need another voice
This morning I read the story of Moses… how he led the fledgling nation of Israel out from under the oppressive hand of the Egyptians.
But before that actually happened something else took place…
Moses had gone to Pharaoh to tell him it was time to release the Jewish people from slavery. The conversation had some unintended, negative consequences. Instead of releasing them, Pharaoh doubled down on them; he essentially doubled their work load!
Of course this took the people to a new low. They were disappointed… discouraged… and ready to quit hoping.
Moses went to God and said, "Why did THAT just happen?"
God said to Moses:
say to the people of Israel: 'I am the Lord. I will free you from your oppression and will rescue you from your slavery in Egypt. I will redeem you with a powerful arm and great acts of judgment. 7 I will claim you as my own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God who has freed you from your oppression in Egypt. 8 I will bring you into the land I swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I will give it to you as your very own possession. I am the Lord!'" (Exodus 6:6-8 NLT)
So Moses did.
The people looked blankly at Moses and essentially said, "We want nothing more to do with you."
Here's how the history writer recorded that moment:
Moses told the people of Israel what the Lord had said, but they refused to listen anymore. They had become too discouraged by the brutality of their slavery. (Exodus 6:9 NLT)
As I read this something hit me…
People still do this!
Discouraged people write off optimistic people as "naive dreamers." They say things like, "You just don't understand…", and make any number of other excuses for giving up and living in slavery.
I've done it. You may have too… so discouraged that it seems like more work to escape than it does to just settle in and build a hut in the land of misery.
So I wondered, what made the difference for these people?
It was a leader… a leader who persisted… who wouldn't let the idea of freedom slide off their mind. A leader who worked with God and eventually moved the needle in the lives of those slaves… helping them to embrace a new mindset!
If you're a slave today, a slave to discouragement, maybe what you need is another voice… a voice that calls you to a better place. Don't write that voice off! Don't make excuses… excuses will only empower your inner slave master. Listen to that optimist who calls you to a better place… follow him/her… and someday you, like the nation of Israel will live in a new place, enjoying freedom and fulfillment!

Claire Peltier keeps having dreams of a man she doesn¿t know but who elicits emotions in her that pale in comparison to the emotions she has with her fiancé. As a result, Claire calls off her wedding because she feels it isn¿t fair to marry one man when her dreams are filled with another. Claire is haunted by these dreams and feels that it is important to solve the mystery of the man who keeps appearing in her dreams. Claire thinks that she may be reincarnated and the mystery man is from her past life. Also, Claire is occasionally visited by a ghost who never speaks a word. One evening, the ghost visits Claire but this time she dares to touch the ghost. The touch elicits a vision of a man kneeling in the center of a circle of inlaid stones on a flagstone floor. He raises his head and Claire sees that he is the man who haunts her dreams. The vision disappears but the ghost is still there. A magazine lifts itself from a rack and the pages are flipped and stop at a page containing a picture of a circle of inlaid stones on a flagstaff floor that looks exactly like the one in her vision. Above the picture is a caption: The Ancient Labyrinth of Chartres Cathedral, France. The man who haunts her dreams is Aiden Delacroix. Aiden needs a wife so he can have an heir to the Delacroix Castle, but no woman in his time will accommodate his need because they believe the ghost of his former mistress haunts him and brings misfortune to everyone associated with him. Claire takes a plane to France and visits the Chartres Cathedral with the hope of finding out who the mystery man of her dreams is. When visiting the cathedral, the ghost appears and leads Claire through the labyrinth. When Claire takes the last step into the center of the labyrinth she is unknowingly transported back in time to the year 1202 and finds herself standing in front of her mystery man as he is kneeling in the center of the labyrinth just as she had seen him in her vision. She reaches out to touch him and discovers that he is a real man, not the ethereal form she had always seen in her visions. Throughout the story, Claire and Aiden try to determine why fate has brought them together from two different times and what is in store for them. Sandra Landry has weaved a set of charming and exciting details into a suspenseful and mysterious tale that kept me guessing (and entertained) from the beginning of the book and right up to the last page. Claire is a strong willed and independent young woman who knows what she wants and never settles for less. Aiden is a perfect hero. He is strong, an excellent swordsman, and has to rescue Claire on several occasions as she risks everything to determine the mystery of their fates. Aiden always treats Claire with the utmost of respect and is determined to get Claire to marry him. The sexual tension between the two keeps escalating until they can no longer resist and eventually yield to their desires. The mechanism that transports Claire into the past is simple and not filled with boring scientific explanations. One of the many entertaining parts in The Last Bride is when Claire is transported to 1202. She isn¿t aware of her time travel and when she leaves the cathedral she wonders why there are no streetlights, why her hotel is not where it¿s supposed to be, and why her cell phone won¿t work. Then Claire finds herself the cause of a sword fight between Aiden and drunks in an inn who had accosted Claire. Later, Claire realizes that Aiden is not the reincarnated man from her past but is the man himself. Sandra Landry has written a perfectly charming, exciting and believable time travel romance. I enjoyed the read so much that I can¿t wait for another tale. The Last Bride is a great and entertaining read and I highly recommend it.

Slain Toddler's Mom Pleads Guilty To Charges
The mother of a 1-year-old Maryland boy found dead in central Ohio has pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter and tampering with evidence.
A new, highly sophisticated global positioning "monument" was installed this month on the grounds of the Ohio Earthquake Information Center north of Columbus. The instrument – the only one of its kind in the state – will detect minute movement in subsurface rock, helping scientists better understand the shifting of the North American landmass. It may also help them predict earthquakes in Ohio.
A two-man crew from the U.S. Geological Survey drilled down through glacial debris earlier this month as they installed a tripod for the base of a new instrument. According to the Ohio Seismic Network's Michael Hansen the system will transmit data to satellites orbiting the earth.
"The monument is anchored into the bedrock," Hansen says. "So as the bedrock moves the elevation and horizontal position of the instrument is recorded very precisely by signals coming in from a satellite constellation of GPS satellites."
The instrument in Alum Creek State Park is one of 852 in North America. Scientists hope the new system, collectively known as the EarthScope Plate Boundary Observatory, will give them a better understanding of the consequences of the continent's movement. Ohio and the rest of North America are being pushed westward by crust that's forming in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Michael Hansen says the shift is only about a millimeter or two per year – about the speed that fingernails grow. It's only felt, he says, when the stress of colliding rock is released by an earthquake.
"We've had about 200 felt earthquakes in Ohio's history and we've had about 15 earthquakes this year in Ohio," Hansen says. "Those earthquakes are occurring along ancient fault zones because of the stress that is being put on the continent."
70 miles west of Columbus, the Shelby County Village of Anna is enjoying unprecedented prosperity. There's the constant rumble of 18-wheelers as they go to and from the Honda engine factory just south of town. But almost 70 years ago there was another kind of rumble that hit Anna.
"It's was a definite sound of its own, like I never heard before. It's like it was, I don't know, like it was coming from someway off or something."
Willis Boyer was at school the morning of March 2, 1937 when the first in a series of earthquakes occurred. Boyer says he and his third grade classmates were too young to know what was happening. But eigth grader Ed Fridley, who was in the school's gym, says he knew exactly what was it was.
"We'd had some tremors before that," Fridley says. "I remembered being out in the country with my mom and dad sitting along side this farmhouse and you could feel the ground shake a little bit and the car started to rock. That was the first time I ever knew what an earthquake was."
The March 2nd earthquake did so much damage to Anna's two-story brick school that it had to be torn down.
"You could stand in the basement and go against an outside wall and you could look out and see the sky where the floors had separated.
Then a few days later, a stronger quake, estimated at 5-point-4, shook residents out of their beds around midnight. No one was killed in the series of quakes, but most of the town's chimneys fell, along with the west wall of the Lutheran church. And in a local cemetery south of town, where several generations of Ed Fridley's family are buried, something more curious had occured.
"Some of these stones were turned clockwise," Fridley says. "And in the cemetery just north of town, some of the stones were turned counterclockwise and that proved that the fault line ran right through Anna."
No one was killed in the earthquakes in '37, but they earned Anna the nickname "Earthquake Capital of Ohio." That title may be claimed by the Cleveland area which has had more than a dozen small quakes – in the two to 3-point-8 magnitude this year alone. Scientists say they don't know if a catastrophic earthquake lies in Ohio's future. The Ohio Seismic Network's Michael Hansen says a repeat of 1811′s New Madrid quake would take 10,000 to 20,000 lives in the region, rupture oil and gas pipelines and do hundreds of billions of dollars in damage.
"We've had, surprisingly, 15 damaging earthquakes in Ohio's history," Hansen says. "One of our great concerns is, in the Midwest, large earthquakes have very large recurrence intervals. They can be on the order of hundreds or perhaps thousands of years. And we've only been recording earthquakes for a relatively short period of time so we don't know if Ohio could generate a much larger earthquake causing significant damage. That's why we're so keen on studying these earthquakes and understanding them."

Stronger commodities prices helped the Toronto stock market squeeze out a small advance on Monday.
Mosaic Co., the secondlargest producer of potash in Saskatchewan, says the budget changes announced Wednesday that will cost potash companies $150 million this year won't affect the $1.7-billion expansion project at Mosaic's K3 mine at Esterhazy announced last week.
REGINA - Shares in Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc. (TSX:POT) and other potash producers were under pressure Thursday, a day after Saskatchewan announced budget changes that will collect an additional $150 million from the industry.
A change in the province's potash royalty regime in the 2015-16 budget will net the Sask. Party government $150 million this year, Finance Minister Ken Krawetz announced Wednesday. The government is also promising to revamp the province's complex potash royalty scheme in consultation with the industry over the next year or two.
Wednesday's budget contained both good and bad news for business. The good news is two new tax incentive programs to encourage job creation and capital investment in the manufacturing and processing sector and capital expansion in the steelmaking sector.

Lindsay Lohan is going to start her stint in the big house today, which isn't the best news for the 24-year-old. But what is quite good news is that Lindsay is going do a full frontal booby-bushy nude scene as pornstar Linda Lovelace, in a film about her life.
Unfortunately, the film won't be out until after Lindsay comes out prison, as we're sure that you're not allowed to record skin flicks in prison, because there would probably be a riot or something. Prison is meant to be about learning from your mistakes and building connections to the criminal underworld, not making movies.
There is a chance that Lindsay will emerge all hardened after her sentence, so it may be worth making the most of her now whilst she doesn't have tears inked on her face. Her stunning photo shoot in Complex magazine is how we will like to remember her, as god intended, next to big weird cartoons.
We're not quite sure what is going on in this picture. It looks like a woman with a tongues head. We assume this is the sort of tuff Salvador Dali used to dream about on a daily basis.
If the picture weren't enough for you, here is a video from Lindsay's shoot with Complex magazine.
Here is the best of our sexy satire on Lindsay Lohan:
1 \ Lindsay Lohan's countdown to jail.
2 \ Lindsay Lohan's get naked in the name of art.
3 \ Lindsay Lohan has her tits out.
And the other sexiness elsewhere on the vast expanse of FHM.com:

2 \ Katy Perry's boobs in the Bahamas.
3 \ Kelly Brook is working out.

Thank you FanofdO for your very insightful post. The issue in Erie is that we have a GM who also has majority ownership in the team, he answers to no one but himself....just a really bad situation. He also surrounds himself with people that don't challenge him because they know they are gone if they do. Word is that his previous attempts to sell the team have failed because he wants a contract where he can still run the team for another 4 years...can you imagine? So you are right, the only thing we as fans can do is stop buying tickets and hope that gets someone's attention.

Question About "Gentlemen Callers" (Non-Lethal Playthrough)
Hey guys,
I'm trying to do a completely non-lethal playthrough of the game and I have a question about the Gentlemen Callers optional mission. I'm on the second part where Granny Rags asks you to poison the gang's elixir supply. My question is, is this going to result in people dying and count as kills?
If so I'll have to skip the mission this playthrough.
Thanks for any help.

Yeah, just finished the mission (and poisoned the elixir) and I can confirm that it does not count as killing anyone.

I am a newbi and I humbly would like to ask a pro for some help because I am stuck...I live in Brooklyn NY and am fortunate enough to have a small space to garden. In my enthusiasm I tend to over plant crowd ,and until half way through this summer I have been watering my plants wrong. I just sprayed them with water and for 2 years in a row they have acquired this white powdry stuff on the leaves and stems and what starts as a wonderful small garden ends up a white powdery mess of dying plants...what is this white stuff-fungus? Am I over crowding? I go to the Botanical Gardens in the Bronx, NY and they crowd like crazy and the plants look soooo wonderful. How do they get away with that and does any one know what that powdery stuff is...I have pictures that I can email you if you like...
A frustrated beginner but nonetheless and avid beginner.
Please excuse my fowardness in posting to pros but I need some help.
Hello from an ex New Yorker living in the desert ...
First .. your post is about as misplaced as a post can get ... but no big deal.
"what is this white stuff-fungus? "
Well lets say it's not sugar. Sounds a lot like Fungus but being this is a pro section I won't guess via computer. Let's just say it is Fungus for the time being.
"I tend to over plant crowd "
Fungus like moist conditions .. overcrowding could mean too much shade for some of your plants. This combined with your overhead watering could be making some very moist conditions thats good for Fungus.
I chat rather often with a few New York gardeners and they all tell me this summer in NY has been very long .. hot AND humid .. more so then normal and that is very good for the fungus.
Keep in mind plants are in the photosynthesis business and so make food from light. Too much shade means business could be slow for some of your plants .. that is the plants energy budget may be too low. Unlike goverments when plants run low on energy they can't tax anyone so one department or another gets short changed .. but unlike goverments defense is one of the first areas to be cut. All this means that your plants may be sitting ducks for a Fungus attack.
Also .. plants close together compete for nutrients as well as light ... so this could also make matters worse.
So conditions are looking very good for Fungus.
"I go to the Botanical Gardens in the Bronx, NY and they crowd like crazy and the plants look soooo wonderful."
Another factor in the Fungus equation is that some plants are more prone to attack by certain Fungi then other plants. Where I live place Pittosporum ( Mock Orange ) in a shady spot and you are just asking for Fungus .. that shows up as a white powder all over the leaves. Sounds like your case ???
Here is what you do ... take a sample of the plant's with the white powdery stuff ( that sounds very much like Fungus but may not be Fungus ) to get identified by an extension agent or someone qualified at the Botanical garden or a local nursery.
"How do they get away with that "
No one gets away with anything in the garden world .. what may appear like over crowding to you may not be overcrowding at all .. plants have different growth requirements so one plants ceiling may be another plants floor ... or something like that.
In other words you can mix and match some plants and keep everyone happy .. and some plants are just complete trouble and in certain areas of the country always come down with one disese problem or another.
DON'T run out for a fungicide just yet ... if conditions are really good for Fungus it may not help much at all and some fungicides work on some Fungus and not others.
Anyway I just found out one of my kids has lice .. I'll take your Fungus anyday !!
Don't forget get someone qualified to look at your Fungus thats the key. " Don't forget that .. "
Good Day ...
What you are describing is powdery mildew, a very common fungal disease that is pretty much environmentally related. It is most prevalent late season, as warm, dry soils and high humidity combine to provide a fertile breeding ground for the pathogen. Some plants are particularly susceptible to the problem and tend to contract it regardless of conditions; others will evidence symptoms only when conditions are ripe.
Overcrowding and lack of air circulation can certainly exacerbate the problem - tends to increase humid conditions surrounding the plants. Overhead watering or spraying can also help to spread it. The water splashing distributes the spores and in overcrowded situations, insufficient moisture reaches the root zone. The good news is that except for a few annuals and curcubits, most plants are not seriously affected by PM, other than defoliation or other unsightliness.
Okay - how to prevent/control: first, select plants that tend to be resistant to this problem. Many plants which are prone to PM have been bred to offer mildew resistant cultivars. Allow sufficient spacing between plants so that overcrowding is not an issue. Water early in the day and avoid a lot of overhead sprinkling or spraying - water the root zone, not the foliage. Mulching will help. It will conserve soil moisture, preventing the dry soils that favor the development of PM, and it will prevent a certain amount of the fungal spores splashing back up to reinfect the foliage. Pulling affected annuals and destroying or cutting back other affected plants and removing fallen foliage will help. Various fungicides including the very popular and organic Cornell recipe can be effective in controlling PM, but at best they will be only preventative, not curative. Once you see it on the foliage, it is usually too late for effective treatment, except to keep it from spreading to unaffected foliage.

Don Cherry Comes To The Aid Of The Staal Brothers
07/27/07 at 10:08 AM ET | Comments (0)
from Joe Warmington of the Toronto Sun,
Don Cherry has jumped over the boards and taken the gloves off in defence of the Staal brothers, saying the media coverage of their arrest was "unfair" and "ridiculous."
And the coach is throwing some of his punches at us at the Sun, for which he has traded in his usual thumbs up into a definite two thumbs down.
"I am very disappointed in the Sun because I always thought of it as very fair and not a trash tabloid," he said last night from his cottage near Kingston. "But what you did to those kids by putting their mug shots on the front of the paper was really low."

Dave Taylor Appears To Be Heading To Dallas
07/27/07 at 09:53 AM ET | Comments (0)
via the LA Times (reg. req.),
One of the most enduring and respected figures in the Kings' organization, Dave Taylor, will no longer be with the franchise.
Taylor's contract expired June 30, and it is expected he is going to be hired by the Dallas Stars in a front-office capacity, according to a source familiar with the Kings, though nothing has been finalized.
Taylor, who played 17 seasons for the Kings and served as general manager for nine more until April 2006, on Thursday called his three-decade tenure with the team "very rewarding" and said he was "looking to a new challenge."
This past season, Taylor served as the team's director of amateur development and it appeared as though the Kings were poised to increase his role.

Why Burke May Pass On Penner
07/27/07 at 09:42 AM ET | Comments (0)
from Terry Jones of the Edmonton Sun,
Of all the GMs in the league the one Lowe is probably closest to is Burke. They talk almost daily.
I find it difficult to believe that there wouldn't be conversation, lots of conversation, before this happened.
As interesting as this may be from an Oilers perspective with Lowe having been unable to spend anywhere near his $45-million US budget, particularly to get a forward and specifically a left winger, its far more interesting from a Ducks perspective. Burke was on the record prior to the July 1 free agent frenzy saying if anybody went after Penner, he'd match.
Would he be first in NHL history not to match?
There's a reason for him to take a pass.

I'm not sure how fond I am of the deep diggers just jumping into the summer fray, offering analysis, after months of inactivity. I question the motivation a bit. So, when the Freep's George Sipple comes out of nowhere and decides to blog a bit about Dustin Penner of all people…I begin to feel clammy and a little scared.
Sure, the Wings could use a 29-goal scorer like Penner (6-foot-4, 243 pounds). But it's a big commitment to make for a guy that doesn't always seem to play each shift as if it were his last.
Good point. The Wings are a team who have stood their ground in that regard. I can't recall a single transaction that included shelling out big bucks for a player who doesn't bring it every shift.
Oh…Robert Lang. Nevermind.

Would Vegas Watch The Trap-Tacular Extravaganza
07/26/07 at 11:42 PM ET | Comments (0)
from Adam Proteau of the Hockey News,
So there's little-to-no chance the NHL could corral the average Vegas tourist's disposable income. That leaves the locals. And does anyone really think that, in a city where there is more competition for one's entertainment budget than practically anywhere else on the planet, the locals are going to opt for blocked slapshots and scrums along the boards?
Is the NHL arrogant enough to believe that – in the midst of exotic animal exhibitions, sins of the flesh and oxygen-fueled gambling – the Average Joe is going to shell out to watch the likes of Lou Lamoriello's Trap-tacular Extravaganza?
Isn't the idea of the defense-first NHL in Vegas very much like dropping Chastity the Abstinence Clown into the middle of Amsterdam's red-light district and expecting bonzo box office to follow?

Can The Ducks Afford Penner
07/26/07 at 07:23 PM ET | Comments (0)
from Dan Wood of the OC Register,
While the Ducks certainly want to keep Penner, the lucrative financial packaged tendered by Edmonton presents something of a challenge given the NHL's $50.3 million salary cap per team. Including the $6.75 million due team captain Scott Niedermayer if he does not retire, the Ducks were looking at a salary-cap figure of at least $48.8 million before signing Penner.
Teams may go 10 percent above the salary cap during the offseason, but must be at or below the figure when the regular season begins. The Ducks' projected player-payroll budget for 2007-08 had been in the $42 million to $44 million range before the club signed free-agent defenseman Mathieu Schneider to a two-year, $11.25 contract and free-agent right wing Todd Bertuzzi to a two-year, $8 million deal early this month.

NBC Announces Some Changes
07/26/07 at 06:25 PM ET | Comments (0)
via Sports Business Daily (paid sub.),
NBC Sports Coordinating Producer Sam Flood today announced that former Islanders GM & coach Mike Milbury will join the net's "NHL Game of the Week" as a studio analyst, replacing former NHLer Brett Hull, who has taken a front-office position with the Stars. The studio show, which originated from Rockefeller Plaza the past two seasons, will now be broadcast live on location from game sites and will be hosted by Pierre McGuire,
added 4:32pm, from TV Week,
"Mike is sometimes controversial, usually quotable and always interesting," said Sam Flood, NBC Sports' coordinating producer and NHL Producer. "As an ex-player, coach and GM, he brings a hat trick of perspective to his new role as a broadcaster. And taking the studio show inside the arena provides an immediacy and big event feel, while shining an even bigger spotlight on the 'Game of the Week.'"

Don't Do It Leafs
07/26/07 at 05:26 PM ET | Comments (0)
from Perry Lefko at Sportsnet,
As a leader in the dressing room and on the ice, Peca is an impact player.
As a player with a storied career, he certainly qualifies.
As a premier faceoff guy, he's among the best.
But he's also a guy coming off a serious knee injury, the second of his career. It usually takes an athlete at least a year and quite likely two to fully recover from a major knee operation. Even though athletes are in prime condition, there are fast-twitch muscles that need to mentally learn to fire at the same pace and frequency after an operation as before.

Oilers Put Offer Sheet to Ducks' Penner
Blog: KK Hockey By Alanah McGinley
07/26/07 at 04:47 PM ET | Comments (0)
From TSN,
The Edmonton Oilers are back at it again, tendering a five year, $21.5 million offer sheet to Anaheim Ducks Group II restricted free agent Dustin Penner.
The Ducks will have the right to match Edmonton's offer for Penner. The Oilers, meanwhile, will not comment on the offer until after Anaheim's decision.
Oilers general manager Kevin Lowe signed Buffalo Sabres forward Thomas Vanek to a seven-year, $50 million offer sheet in early July. The Sabres matched the offer to retain Vanek.

The gimmee in golf is often described as an uneasy agreement between hackers who have no clue what to do when grasping the magic wand. Many golfers take issue with this stroke shaving device, calling it a blatant bastardization of the rules of golf. They would claim you're making a mockery of the game. I suppose it is hard to honestly say you shot an 89 if you've "picked up" 3 or 4, two footers in a round. Always with the caveat of course that you're just trying to speed up play or you "know" you could make it.
Some golfers feel no compunction when given the opportunity to avoid stressing over a putt that is often times "outside the leather." My friend Ken could drive the ball a country mile. Like many long ball hitters though, putting was not Ken's forte. Although many golfers struggle with their conscious a bit when accepting a gimmee, I remember one of my friends once saying, "You never have to tell Herme twice to pick a putt up." The truth is the ball would be in his pocket before you finished the phrase, "That's good." With a big smile on his face! Read more

With apologies to Edgar Allan Poe
With apologies to Dr. Seuss
UPDATED December 23, 2010:
Click on the mp3 link above to listen to a recorded version of "The Blower Door Man Is Coming to Town." Many thanks to Greg Cutler and Peter Troast of The Energy Circle for recording one of this year's carols.
'Twas the night before Christmas, when blizzards and chills
Strain my budget by raising my energy bills;
All the stockings were swaying — a cold winter breeze
Made my home's leaky envelope feel like Swiss cheese
(The old windows and ceilings have so many gaps
That the kids have to sleep in their kerchiefs and caps) —
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
And I yanked up the creaky old single-pane sash.

Jitterbug made our lineup because the gray beauty looks like a lot of fun. Watch out! You may get pounced!
Christine Johnson via Facebook
Look at that teensy pink sweater! Jack and Libbitz are adorable playing on the beach. This is such a cute pic, and we love it when small and big dogs are pals.
We have several puppy pairs this week. Scouty and Lilly Pad are 8-week-old Blue Heeler sisters from the same litter, and they couldn't be cuter.
Joan P Dannenberg via Facebook
This is a nicely done portrait of Grandma. We love the balance of the pink flowers, green grass and her blue eyes.
Connie Paskorz via Facebook
We couldn't resist this redhead and blond pairing. Cody, 3 years, and Casanova, 7 months, have such pretty coats.
Gina Spadafori via Facebook
Drew, a 4-year-old Sheltie, looks so happy in this photo. We read that he has some health problems, and we wish this amazing canine the best.

my last resort
my 12 yr old dog was diagnosed with diabetes, I knew this is serious in adults, fortunately humans have health insurance, but insulin for a dog is well over $250-300/per vial; picked up Freshpet, grain free/natural food, and within a week I saw a dramatic change in my dog's health… I'm thankful for every day with her, and so glad I found this product.
"Since feeding Freshpet, I've seen a change in my pet(s):"

Yummy for the tummy…
I first purchased Vital as training treats for my Finnish Spitz. She loved it so much, I decided to try her on it for meal time. My pup had terrible gas with her other food brand. Since eating Vital, she hasn't passed any gas. With her other brand, she would eat a little, play a little. I'd feel guilty taking her food away unfinished. With Vital, she eats it all in one sitting. Great food! Although expensive, its worth it. I love to see how happy this food makes my pup.
"Since feeding Freshpet, I've seen a change in my pet(s):"

Picky Eater
I have a Chihuahua Jack Russel Mix she is 4 years old. We could never get her to eat other than just pick at her food. I tried can foods, dry foods, I tried mixing different foods with kibble and nothing worked for more than a few days, that was until I found Freshpet Vital. Now she runs to her dish eats and like a horse. She has put on weight she is no longer underweight and her coat is shiny and soft as before it was course. She has been eating this for 3 + months. I am hoping she will continue to love it.

Happy Owner, Happy Poodle
I have a red tiny toy poodle, she is about a year and 2 months old and since I bought her she has been the most finicky eater I have ever seen! She was eating Royal Canine for the first 7 months I had her and then suddenly she wouldn't eat anything, even healthy fresh eggs or chicken I would make at home. Finally, after countless vet visits, appetite increasing shots, trying every dog food possible, nothing was working so I was walking through the pet store and noticed a refrigerator with food called Freshpet… you could say I won the lottery with this one! She now will eat and enjoy her food and it has a 5 star rating and so far for the past three months she hasn't stopped yet! Crossing my fingers! Thank you Freshpet!

Jack is a 4 1/2 yr old Bichon Frise. I rescued him last November 2013 and it has taken ALMOST 1 year to find a food that he likes and agrees with his digestion and Freshpet Vital Grain Free Complete Meal is his the ONE! Meal time is NOW a happy time for everyone!

Taste like candy….
When ever I go to the refrigerator and my dogs see that I am opening the meat draw they come running as soon as they hear me opening this bag. I call the bag their candy. They go crazy for it. I can sit there and feed them one piece at a time as a treat or fill up their bowls and watch them eat every piece and then lick the bowls.
What I love about Freshpet
- Good value for the quality
- Is the most nutritious food available
- Makes my pet visibly healthier
- Made with fresh, real meats and veggies
- Convenient to store and serve
- Made in the U.S.A.
- All natural, no preservatives
- Is a food my pet is excited to eat

Great Food!
Our dog (a 4 year old Field Spaniel) can be a picky eater. Not with this food! He starts dancing around the kitchen as soon as he sees me take it out of our refridgerator. While cutting it up-he visibly starts salivating…once he has his bowl, it is gone in a flash…never anything left in the bowl!

For puppies, feed up to twice the normal adult requirement from four to fourteen months of age in two to three feedings. The above quantities can be fed as one meal or divided into two meals based on your dog's preference. When switching foods, gradually increase the new food and decrease the previous food to help make a smooth transition.
Use within 7 days of opening.
