To encourage the use of products and materials for which life-cycle information is available and that have environmentally, economically, and socially preferable life-cycle impacts. To reward project teams for selecting products for which the chemical ingredients in the product are inventoried using an accepted methodology and for selecting products verified to minimize the use and generation of harmful substances. To reward raw material manufacturers who produce products verified to have improved life-cycle impacts.
Option 1. material ingredient reporting (1 point)
Use at least 20 different permanently installed products from at least five different manufacturers that use any of the following programs to demonstrate the chemical inventory of the product to at least 0.1% (1000 ppm).
- Manufacturer Inventory. The manufacturer has published complete content inventory for the product following these guidelines:
- A publicly available inventory of all ingredients identified by name and Chemical Abstract Service Registration Number (CASRN)
- Materials defined as trade secret or intellectual property may withhold the name and/or CASRN but must disclose role, amount and GreenScreen benchmark, as defined in GreenScreen v1.2.
- Health Product Declaration. The end use product has a published, complete Health Product Declaration with full disclosure of known hazards in compliance with the Health Product Declaration open Standard.
- Cradle to Cradle. The end use product has been certified at the Cradle to Cradle v2 Basic level or Cradle to Cradle v3 Bronze level.
- USGBC approved program. Other USGBC approved programs meeting the material ingredient reporting criteria.
Option 2. Material ingredient optimization (1 point)
Use products that document their material ingredient optimization using the paths below for at least 25%, by cost, of the total value of permanently installed products in the project.
- GreenScreen v1.2 Benchmark. Products that have fully inventoried chemical ingredients to 100 ppm that have no Benchmark 1 hazards:
- If any ingredients are assessed with the GreenScreen List Translator, value these products at 100% of cost.
- If all ingredients are have undergone a full GreenScreen Assessment, value these products at 150% of cost.
- Cradle to Cradle Certified. End use products are certified Cradle to Cradle. Products will be valued as follows:
- Cradle to Cradle v2 Gold: 100% of cost
- Cradle to Cradle v2 Platinum: 150% of cost
- Cradle to Cradle v3 Silver: 100% of cost
- Cradle to Cradle v3 Gold or Platinum: 150% of cost
- International Alternative Compliance Path – REACH Optimization. End use products and materials that do not contain substances that meet REACH criteria for substances of very high concern. If the product contains no ingredients listed on the REACH Authorization or Candidate list, value at 100% of cost.
- USGBC approved program. Products that comply with USGBC approved building product optimization criteria.
Option 3. Product Manufacturer Supply Chain Optimization (1 point)
Use building products for at least 25%, by cost, of the total value of permanently installed products in the project that:
- Are sourced from product manufacturers who engage in validated and robust safety, health, hazard, and risk programs which at a minimum document at least 99% (by weight) of the ingredients used to make the building product or building material, and
- Are sourced from product manufacturers with independent third party verification of their supply chain that at a minimum verifies:
- Processes are in place to communicate and transparently prioritize chemical ingredients along the supply chain according to available hazard, exposure and use information to identify those that require more detailed evaluation
- Processes are in place to identify, document, and communicate information on health, safety and environmental characteristics of chemical ingredients
- Processes are in place to implement measures to manage the health, safety and environmental hazard and risk of chemical ingredients
- Processes are in place to optimize health, safety and environmental impacts when designing and improving chemical ingredients
- Processes are in place to communicate, receive and evaluate chemical ingredient safety and stewardship information along the supply chain
- Safety and stewardship information about the chemical ingredients is publicly available from all points along the supply chain
Products meeting Option 3 criteria are valued at 100% of their cost for the purposes of credit achievement calculation.
For credit achievement calculation of options 2 and 3, products sourced (extracted, manufactured, purchased) within 100 miles (160 km) of the project site are valued at 200% of their base contributing cost. For credit achievement calculation, the value of individual products compliant with either option 2 or 3 can be combined to reach the 25% threshold but products compliant with both option 2 and 3 may only be counted once.
Structure and enclosure materials may not constitute more than 30% of the value of compliant building products.

Fencing Fiduciary DutiesLarry E. Ribstein (Deceased)University of Illinois College of Law; PERC - Property and Environment Research Center January 10, 2011 Boston University Law Review, Vol. 91, pp. 857-878, 2011 Illinois Program in Law, Behavior and Social Science Paper No. LBSS11-02 Illinois Public Law Research Paper No. 10-20 Abstract: This comment on the work of Professor Tamar Frankel builds on her encyclopedic discussion of the various types of duties that have been classified as "fiduciary." I argue for a more precise definition and more limited application of fiduciary duties which recognizes that their usefulness depends on their being limited and separated from other duties that apply in other settings. The fiduciary duty is appropriately construed as one of unselfishness, as distinguished from lesser duties of care, good faith and fair dealing, and to refrain from misappropriation. The fiduciary duty of unselfishness is appropriate only for a limited class of agency relationships in which the principal delegates open-ended power to the agent, and not for those who may exercise lesser power over the property of others, including co-investors, advisors, professionals, and those in confidential relationships. More broadly applying fiduciary duties could unnecessarily constrain parties from self-protection in contractual relationships, impose excessive litigation costs, provide an unsuitable basis for contracting, and impede developing fiduciary norms of behavior. This analysis of fiduciary duties helps address current issues, including those regarding the duties of brokers, dealers, and investment and mutual fund advisors. In short, fencing fiduciary duties protects both fiduciary and non-fiduciary relationships and enables parties to contract for the precise level of protection that is appropriate to the services they are purchasing.

It may not be a "Comedy" but The new sensational show called "Level Up" however, inspires gamers everywhere to be connected as a team. Most people don't believe in "Power of Friendship" or anything of the sort, only because they are afraid of the connection tend to grow stronger. In my book, This show has more effort of superstardom than the series, "Adventure Time". People need more of "Level Up". This must be the NEW face of cartoon network. Congradualations to the cast members, director, sound, and others. Keep on creating more seasons! Read more Review posted on Thursday, September 27th 2012 at 7:16 am |

Easy Summer, Scene #03
Summertime and the living is easy for Bryan Cole and Connor Maguire. The vacationing young studs have nothing better to do than hang out in the pool and fuck all day. After a passionate make-out session Connor hops up on the side of the pool and whips out his huge rock-hard cock. Bryan sucks Connor's massive uncut tool until he can't take it anymore; he needs that hot ass. Bryan bends over and puts his huge bubble-butt in Connor's face so the hunky ginger can feast on his hole. After a fierce rim job Connor stands up and shoves his big dick in Bryan's ass. His rhythmic ass-pounding causes Bryan's huge pierced cock to gyrate in a hands-free helicopter that rocks them both to the base. Driven to the edge, Connor pulls out and shoots, leaving Bryan covered in sweat and cum.

Cinnamon Swirl Challah French Toast ($10)
The Country Cat
7937 SE Stark St;
Portland's overlord of down-home but up-flavor Southern cooking, Adam Sappington, serves brunch every day at his inviting Montavilla eatery. From chicken-fried steak to smoked steelhead Benedict, the Country Cat covers the classic country breakfast with soulful aplomb, but transcendence can be found in the French toast. This is not French toast as you know it—this is French toast as you will remember it. At its core is an eggy, cinnamon-laced challah bread, baked weekly in the kitchen. Dipped in Maker's Mark–spiked custard, the thick slices are served with a generous dollop of "clabber," a traditional Southern staple that tastes like whipped cream on steroids. Add a rustic compote of bing cherries, currants, and raisins, employ your little pitcher of maple syrup spiced with cinnamon, anise, and clove, and you have the formula for the most enjoyable food coma in town.
What's In Your Cup: The Maple Leaf: Pendleton Canadian whiskey, maple syrup, and lemon juice, served up in martini glass. For the full effect, order it warm.
The Ideal Meal: Go ahead and order a side of house-cured, maple syrup–dipped bacon. At this point, why not? —RR
Golden Egg Custard Buns ($4.50)
Ocean City
3016 SE 82nd Ave;
Ocean City's dim sum feeding frenzy is in full force by midday: servers wheel dumpling-laden carts around the giant Chinese ballroom, dispensing rich, marinated meats and deep-fried seafood to families packed in around doily-topped lazy Susans. You can spin a fine feast from familiar adventures like barbecued pork buns, chicken feet, and lotus-wrapped envelopes of sticky rice, flecked with bits of Chinese sausage and egg. But Ocean City's crown jewel is a special not found anywhere else: the golden egg custard buns. They come three to an order, oozing with a warm, egg-yolk center and capped by a shimmering veneer of sugar and egg, like the best meringue. It's dim sum alchemy: thick, sweet custard, the yeasty chew of the bun, and a resounding crackle through the sugarcoated top.
What's In Your Cup: A steaming pot of jasmine tea. It's traditional, mandatory, and wonderfully fragrant.
The Ideal Meal: Just point and eat. Be adventurous. —Benjamin Tepler
Smoked Trout Pytt I Panna ($12)
2508 SE Clinton St;
Inside Peter Bro's svelte, Scandinavian digs, pastel ramekins of ripe farm cheeses, fresh berries, and pickled herring emerge from the open kitchen with unpronounceable names and a surplus of umlauts. The kitchen repackages Swedish classics into quaint shapes and sizes, putting a requisite Portland egg on almost everything. Brave the weekend brunch line (or better yet, treat yourself on a weekday) to find one of Portland's great surprises: the Pytt I Panna, a Swedish hash with smoked trout served in your very own orange ceramic pot over blue-checked paper, complete with a giant wedge of walnut bread and a cute crock of butter. How often does a hash look art-directed by Martha Stewart? The fun begins with the visual drama of big-yolked eggs baked into a square and decorated with chunks of auburn pickled beets. Hiding underneath are tiny cubes of well-buttered Yukon potatoes mingling happily with morsels of smoked rainbow trout. The dish fires on all cylinders: savory umami, sweet and sour, and rich satisfaction.
What's In Your Cup: A list of Scandinavian aquavits makes for early-morning thrills, as does the Swedish Coffee (Krogstad aquavit, Kahlúa, and Stumptown).
The Ideal Meal: No trip to Broder is complete without a pile of aebleskivers (Danish pancakes)—round, fluffy globes dusted with a heavy hand of powdered sugar. On the side: tiny bowls of house-made lemon curd and lingonberry jam. Dip away.
The fun begins with the visual drama of big-yolked eggs baked into a square and decorated with chunks of auburn pickled beets.
The Dutch Baby ($10.75)
The Original Pancake House
8601 SW 24th Ave;
Just off the traffic scrum of SW Barbur Boulevard sits a cheerful alternate universe you'd be tempted to call "Old Portland." The panels are wood, the decorative ceramics collectible, and the skirt-and-tennis-shoe-wearing waitresses are chipper in a bygone, 1950s way. And then this venerable anchor of a national chain, open since 1953, produces the unforgettable objet d'art: the Dutch Baby, a golden, imperial crown of eggy dough and powdered sugar and—well, that's it. The deep trough in the baby's center allows you to create your own Glacial Lake Missoula of savory creamed butter and fresh lemon juice, which your fork then releases in a staggering, plate-swamping flood. In between bites, you marvel.
What's In Your Cup: Some of the city's worst coffee—like Grandma used to make, but not in a good way—and some of its best orange juice.
The Ideal Meal: If you go Dutch, you really won't want anything else. But opinions seem divided between Dutch Baby loyalists and partisans of the other house special, the titanic apple pancake. And for your grain-challenged chums, the Pancake House offers a whole rack of gluten-free options.
—Zach Dundas
Burmese Red Pork Stew ($10)
Tasty n Sons
3808 N Williams Ave;
History is riddled with happy accidents that turned out to be revelatory (penicillin and Coca-Cola, to name a couple). So it should come as no surprise that among Tasty n Sons' myriad standout dishes, the Burmese red pork stew developed somewhat serendipitously out of chef John Gorham's regular Sunday dinners. He made the smoky, sweet dish from a Burmese friend's family recipe, then brought the leftovers to Toro Bravo Monday morning. A little improvisation with a pickled egg later, and a flawless breakfast dish was born. Of course, like many good things, the stew requires a lengthy incubation. The stars—lightly sweet, tender chunks of pork shoulder and belly—spend an entire day marinating in a soy, sugar, and ginger mix before earning a crisp char followed by two hours in a dark, caramel oven braise. The searing accounts for part of the stew's slow-developing heat: Gorham uses his own chile sauce made with sesame oil and Calabrian chiles. Topped with two eggs—one sunny-side up and one that has pickled for a full day in a bath of Hood River honey, soy, and garlic—spring onions, and a few more of those Calabrian chiles, Gorham's stew qualifies as much as dinner as it does breakfast. But then again, when it comes to revelations, rules don't exactly apply.
What's In Your Cup: Tasty's crisp grapefruit mimosa—made with Althea Prosecco, not Champagne—promises a refreshing, blessedly uncloying way to relieve the heat.
The Ideal Meal: Cap your savory stew with a sweet note: two-bite chocolate potato doughnuts sitting in a rich puddle of crème anglaise. —KC

Estimable Assistance
There's no question estimating software has made life immeasurably easier, more efficient and more profitable for wide-format print professionals everywhere.
But when it comes to choosing estimating software, every shop is different. Some want estimating functions and not a whole lot more, while others seek software solutions that can provide total shop management capabilities, from estimating to accounting, inventory control, sales tracking, production management, and marketing.
Cyrious Control
Cyrious Control software is the choice of Digitech Graphics Group, a Lakeland, FL shop specializing in wide-format products from trade show displays and graphics to vehicle wraps, wall murals, environmental graphics, and standard wide-format posters.
General manager Jay Boatright selected the software for its total shop management program. "We were looking to consolidate three software tools into one," he recalls of the decision reached 15 months ago. "The three were estimating and quoting, accounts payable and production management."
In addition to providing those capabilities, the software also aids Digitech in sales tracking and marketing. Boatright reports that until they began using the software, he and his colleagues didn't realize exactly how they would be able to use the data the software gathered. "Now we have a great wealth of data on our clients and potential clients, which we can use for more efficient marketing," he says.
Cyrious Control has helped Digitech in other ways as well. Before the shop began using the software, it took three months to get new salespeople up to speed on handling their own quotes. Today, that process has been compressed to about 30 days, because the software makes it easier to teach new sales staff how to quote.
Another key benefit has been greatly enhanced operational reporting, which has helped cut effort and money. "I can stay at my desk all day and still know what's going on in terms of sales, production and design and accounts receivable," Boatright says. "It has allowed us to keep track of our costs and cut down on waste drastically. It made us really examine our pricing, based on material usage and waste.
"[Cyrious Control was] hands down the best product we found for the money."
Also benefiting from Cyrious Control is SignTex Imaging, a shop that produces billboards, banners, and stadium graphics in the Houston suburb of Tombal, TX. General manager Terri Kline used Cyrious Control at FastSigns, her previous employer, and brought it over to SignTex in April 2008, two months before the shop began using it.
Currently, Cyrious Control is being used at SignTex Imaging only for estimating. But the shop is "now getting into the production terminals of the software," Kline says, and likely will begin using the product for bookkeeping and billing functions as well.
"I liked the ease of it," Kline notes of her decision to recommend Cyrious to her new employer at SignTex Imaging. "It covers everything. It asks all the right questions, so you don't forget to ask customers the questions you need to ask, and don't forget to enter the right information."
The previous software SignTex Imaging used was "terrible," Kline recalls. It lacked security features to prevent unauthorized users from tapping into the program and entering changes that no one could track. By contrast, Cyrious Control requires all users to have passwords to enter the software program. "It will log the activity if you withdraw or deposit money in its activity log, so activities can be checked later," Kline says.
The estimating function supplies a number of conveniences, she adds. Each of SignTex Imaging's customers is what she calls "price unique." The program will list the wholesale price of a product, then provide the unique markups for each customer.
Kline believes Cyrious Control offers "everything you need in a software program. When I worked at FastSigns, it did everything from our accounting to our marketing."
At Buettner Printing in the Milwaukee suburb of Butler, WI, president Fred Buettner Jr. tried a number of programs, finally choosing PrintPoint Version 5.2. He found it was the easiest program to use, and also the easiest to adjust to from his own personal way of estimating. "I used to figure everything by hand," he says. "And I knew exactly where I was going and what I was doing with PrintPoint."
The shop uses PrintPoint not only for estimating its wide-format printing output, but also its offset printing of business cards, envelopes, letterhead and color brochures. In the wide-format print arena, Buettner says, he creates a template of popular sizes like 24 by 36, can click on the template, and access pricing he uses for each of his clients.
"It's a program very easy to adjust," he says. "Even though you may have set prices, you can always go in and change the prices, even right in the middle of a job."
In addition to using PrintPoint for estimating, Buettner also occasionally utilizes the software for accounts receivable functions. He plans to eventually use PrintPoint for all his accounting functions, replacing another accounting program that's harder to use.
In addition, he has found PrintPoint can help him gain insights into his shop's inventory usage and equipment productivity, as well as helping avoid costly mistakes.
"I know how much I've used, and how frequently I've used it," he says of certain types of materials. "As a result, I know what I'm using and can get a better buy next time I see a supplier offering a discount on that particular stock."
The software can also tell him which presses he's running most, and what types of jobs he is running on those presses. "I know who's purchasing what and at any given time," he says. "I can see where I need to focus, what machines are providing the greatest output, and even which machines I may eventually be able to eliminate."
PrintPoint also saves time, money and the need to requote by catching mistakes before they're made. For example, the software allows a user to enter specs for each individual printer, and will alert him or her if the job falls outside those configurations.
"If you have a 24-inch wide image, you're printing on 24-inch paper and you need margins, it will alert you not to print on that paper," Buettner says. "It definitely makes you more profitable when you don't have to rerun jobs."
Buettner believes acquiring PrintPoint is the single best investment he's made in his business in its 24-year history, due to the software's outstanding ability to automate business functions and catch mistakes before they're made. "And if you need any support at all, you just call them and they take care of you in real time during that call," he adds. "They're very good that way. It's excellent customer care."
Just as enthusiastic about PrintPoint 5.2 is Lisa Brooks, manager of estimating for Brooks Litho & Digital Group in Amityville, NY. The 21-year-old shop was launched by Lisa's father David Brooks in 1988, and later introduced the first digital press on Long Island. Its focus is trade show, retail store and office signage, according to Lisa Brooks.
Of PrintPoint, she says, "It's fantastic. It really streamlined our job tracking and estimating. We can use one program to do everything: job tracking, fully automated estimating, client database, vendor/supplier database, paper inventory and job costing."
Like Buettner, Brooks found PrintPoint was very easy to set up and featured a manual that was detailed but easy to follow. Also like those at Buettner Printing, employees at Brooks Litho & Digital Group formerly tackled estimating by hand. With PrintPoint, Brooks was able to consolidate job functions and move people who formerly handled estimating into other posts, because the program handled estimating so well.
When users need tech support, Brooks says, the software maker often logs on to users' systems to determine exactly how the problem manifests itself on screen.
"They log right onto your system, view the problem, and if they can take control they will fix it," Brooks says. "For a fairly simple issue, you won't wait longer than the length of a 15-minute phone call to have something addressed," Brooks calls PrintPoint "a saving grace for our company," adding, "You can really do everything. I don't think there's anything I could add they haven't added."
At Costa Mesa, CA-based Primary Color Systems Corp., the favored estimating product is Monarch Version 11, which operations manager Steve Rowe and colleagues began using for litho printing in June 2007 and for wide- format printing in October 2007.
"It's put some consistency in our estimating, and has given us the ability to project our inventory needs and manage inventory more effectively," Rowe says.
Once Primary Color Systems employees got used to the wide-format estimating module, they found Monarch comparatively easy to use, but not as easy to use as they believe it will eventually become. "The wide-format estimating module is not exactly what we need," Rowe says.
"It needs further enhancement, so we've had to introduce some work-arounds in order to achieve the results we require. Those make it more difficult to us, but if we get the enhancements, it will be easier to use."
Estimating functions are 100 percent accurate, as long as users create their standards and lay the appropriate groundwork, which is entirely within their control, Rowe adds. "It's a work in progress, as far as fine tuning our estimating standards," he says. "Our company overall is just starting to reap the benefits of having a fully integrated estimating production and accounting system."

CTIA announces 2014 'super' show
CTIA today announced plans to merge its spring and fall shows, creating what the association is referring to as a "super" mobile industry trade show.
Beginning in 2014, CTIA will combine the best of its CTIA Wireless show, which is focused on technology and consumer electronics, and its recently rebranded fall show, MobileCON, with an emphasis on mobile IT solutions. The result will be a larger mobile show that will take place Sept. 9, 10 & 11 at the Sands Expo Convention Center in Las Vegas.
Rob Mesirow, vice president and show director for CTIA, said in an interview with Wireless Week that the association had been researching possible changes to its shows for the past two years. He said the new show will bring together other "strategic shows and partners" from the wireless industry and complementary verticals.
"This is going to be a dramatic shift, and it's intended to completely reorganize the new, emerging wireless ecosystem in one place," Mesirow said, adding that the timing was key, placing the show in the early second half of the year where there's not much else happening.
Mesirow said CTIA will continue to host CTIA 2013 and MobileCON 2013 separately, while incorporating super show programs as a springboard to the changes in 2014. In 2014, MobileCON will be a "show within a show," with separate registration, and it will be hosted in a ballroom at the Sands.
The MobileCON 2013 show is scheduled for October 9-11 in San Jose, Calif. As scheduled, CTIA 2013 will take place May 21-23 at the Sands Expo Convention Center in Las Vegas.
Mesirow said the major carriers were enthusiastic about the changes. In a statement, Fared Adib, senior vice president of product development and operations for Sprint, said the industry "needed a trade show where we can showcase our offerings and capabilities, from consumer to healthcare to the connected home, at one place."
There was one group that wasn't very happy with CTIA's timing for its event. The Competitive Cellular Association (CCA), formerly the Rural Cellular Assocation, suggested that CTIA's timing for its new show couldn't have been worse, as it overlaps with the CCA's Annual Convention.
Eric Graham, senior vice president of strategic relations at C Spire, which is a member of the CCA, said that it was "either an incredible coincidence that CTIA scheduled an event 20 months from now on top of CCA's Annual Convention, or it is CTIA finally admitting, like its two largest members, that it cannot beat its competition on the merits."
Graham went on to call the wireless industry "duopoly dominated," saying that CTIA's timing for its 2014 show was "rooted in the same mentality that drove C Spire to leave that organization three years ago."
"Now that CTIA has adopted AT&T and Verizon's tactics, everyone should accept that the three are actually one in the same, despite whatever small carrier window-dressing they dream up to present to the public," Graham said.

Each has its pros and cons. While aluminum will corrode in chlorinated water, it is much lighter than brass. Brass doesn't corrode, per se, but it is far heavier than aluminum. This weight might end up hurting you, though. This is because you'll need to keep your weight as low as possible to maintain stability (mostly surfaced) and with big blocks of brass as end caps, your weight will be pretty high. Virtually all model submarines require weight to be added with the keel the most obvious place. Using brass, your boat's overall weight will reduce the amount of weight you'll need in the keel. This can be offset to a large degree by the use of foam, however, but you'll probably need quite a bit and you'll still have to add weight in the keel.
Realizing the faults inherent with acrylic, I've been very successful using 3/8" thick acrylic as end caps with zero ill effects. The thicker the piece is, the better (to a point, anyway. Use a very sharp tool and leave a small radius instead of sharp corners and you'll be home free.

Review: Edradour Gaja Barolo Cask Finish
Posted by Arctic Wolf on June 21, 2012
Edradour holds the distinction of being the smallest distillery in Scotland. It is also the last original farm distillery in Perthshire. The same wooden equipment is used to mash and ferment the whisky today, that was purchased by the distillery 170 years ago. They use the smallest copper stills in Scotland, and in fact they are the smallest permissible by Scottish law. They also use the only working model of a Morton refrigerator (used in the distilling process) in the industry. You'll find this unique distillery nestled in a small glen above Pitlochry in the Southern Highlands. A truly unique distillery, making truly unique single malt whisky.
The Edradour Gaja Barolo Cask Finished Whisky is a fully aged 12-year-old single malt. The whisky was aged for 12 years in American Oak and then finished in a Barolo wine barrel from Angelo Gaja, an Italian wine producer from Piemonte. This is a 'cask strength' offering bottled at a whopping 57.1 % alcohol by volume. I expect this to be a bit of a beast in the glass with strong flavours and aromas.
Here is an excerpt from my review:
