Wind turbines kill an estimated 13 million to 39 million birds and bats every year
The lid has come off the mortality at windfarms cover up
By News on the Net Mark Duchamp -- Bio and Archives January 22, 2013Comments| Print friendly | Subscribe | Email Us |
Here is a summary of the latest news on bird/bat mortality at windfarms;
"New studies reveal ... that in the United States alone ... wind turbines kill an estimated 13 million to 39 million birds and bats every year." (there are about 39,000 wind turbines in the US)
The world-wide slaughter of birds and bats by windfarms has been confirmed by biologist Clive Hambler, who teaches at Oxford University:
"Every year in Spain alone — according to research by the conservation group SEO/Birdlife (the Spanish Ornithological Society, or Sociedad Española de Ornitología, the counterpart of the RSPB in Spain - ed) — between 6 and 18 million birds and bats are killed by wind farms. They kill roughly twice as many bats as birds. This breaks down as approximately 110–330 birds per turbine per year and 200–670 bats per year. And these figures may be conservative if you compare them to statistics published in December 2002 by the California Energy Commission: 'In a summary of avian impacts at wind turbines by Benner et al (1993) bird deaths per turbine per year were as high as 309 in Germany and 895 in Sweden.' "
"Why is the public not more aware of this carnage? First, because the wind industry (with the shameful complicity of some ornithological organisations) has gone to great trouble to cover it up — to the extent of burying the corpses of victims. Second, because the ongoing obsession with climate change means that many environmentalists are turning a blind eye to the ecological costs of renewable energy. What they clearly don't appreciate — for they know next to nothing about biology — is that most of the species they claim are threatened by 'climate change' have already survived 10 to 20 ice ages, and sea-level rises far more dramatic than any we have experienced in recent millennia or expect in the next few centuries. Climate change won't drive those species to extinction; well-meaning environmentalists might."
A poem says it in different words:
More on the real mortality caused by windfarms:
Wind turbines will cause the extinction of many bird and bat species, while failing to solve our energy problems - because of their intermittency, uncontrolable variability, and cost.

me - Unregistered July 28, 2011 2:27 PM grosjean first run in f1 was a bust and usually if this is the case with a 1st attempt in formula1 this shows something about ones ability to compete a this level, he's 2nd will be close to a bust too, i guess, i might be wrong but is what i believe, will see i think after monza when is rumored grosjean will drive for renault replacing nick 2 agree 2 disagree
Jez - Unregistered July 28, 2011 3:31 PM I was very disappointed to see Grosjean miss out on a seat in 2010, especially the way Petrov drove that year. He drove very well for someone who walked into the seat with no testing in the car.While Petrov has improved massively this year, I do hope that Romain gets a full time drive. As well as Hulkenberg. It's a shame the pay drivers are taking the seats off the real talent, but that's the way this sport works at the moment. 2 agree 0 disagree
Rob01 - Unregistered July 28, 2011 3:45 PM For three teams to have such interest, it means he is sporting a pocket full of cash as well. 2 agree 2 disagree
Tim - Unregistered July 28, 2011 4:50 PM Unfortunately there is no money following Grosjean, his only backers are Geni Capital, and LRGP's Malaysian masters will not want Grosjean they have their preferred driver lined up. Eric Boullier is throwing feathers in the air to see where they land. 7 agree 0 disagree
dave - Unregistered July 28, 2011 5:29 PM Last Edited 1369 days ago spot on timManager talks up driver.Genii capial are an investment co, so boullier has to justify to the shareholders hiring grosjean on more than just his Nationalty... or who just happens to manage him.EDIT by CRASH.NET! Inappropriate comment removed. 1 agree 0 disagree
107SS2009 July 28, 2011 6:05 PM Rob, if he had (came) with a pocket full of cash Boullier wouldn't advertise him like that, it looks like Boullier is already putting him up for sale. Reply Report abuse 1 agree 0 disagree
Fat Eric - Unregistered July 28, 2011 6:26 PM Grosjean does look good in GP2, but who is he up against this season all second, third & forth year GP2 drivers if these guys have not made it to F1 by now forget the lot of them. Follow the route Red Bull send their drivers.........WSBRAnother thing no one mentions is Grosjean did a lot of the Pirelli pre season tyre testing enough to exclude him from the GP2 championship this year thus giving him a terrific advantage coupled to the fact that Dams and Eric Boullier are joined at the hip another advantage for Grosjean with all the data that can flow back and forthOne current GP2 driver may make it through Sam Bird not setting the world alight but for a few mistakes he could have been taking it to GrosjeanAs for LRGP they need 2 top class drivers to show what their car can really do and that will rule Grosjean out. 4 agree 1 disagree
Nanbawan - Unregistered July 28, 2011 9:53 PM Romain had a hard deal in 2009, amidst the Crashgate scandal with a dog of a car that even Alonso had issues to do anything spectacular with. Had the ownership of the team not changed, he would probably have been a Renault driver through 2010. Alas, it was a case of wrong place at the wrong time for him. And let's not forget he didn't enjoy the intensive use of a simulator at Renault unlike Toyota - which had also a better car - for instance. In these times of testing bans, this proved to be important. I don't think we can fairly judge a driver after just 7 GPs especially in those conditions.He should have a proper F1 seat and at least a full season to prove himself and then we'll see what he can do out of it. Anyway, he's doing the best he can do about that so far... 2 agree 1 disagree
brendan - Unregistered July 29, 2011 7:27 AM its right he deserves another crack at it. Tho what frustrated most about him first time around was he refused to learn. I remember there being issues with how to warm up the brakes, he wouldnt follow or even try the way fernando was doing it. but he was young, so certainly deserves a full season to develop. but the question that should be asked is why on earth does petrov have a seat until end of 2012??? why didnt they just sign him to one year. he certainly didnt deserve 2! 0 agree 0 disagree

Surfing apparel company Roxy put together a semi-risqué teaser promoting the Roxy Pro Biarritz 2013 surfing championship in France. The event is taking place July 10th through the 14th.
As part of the promotion, Roxy was teasing a "who am I, just guess" highlight where we are presented with an athlete's well formed physique, but no face to make you wonder who you are watching get ready to hit the waves.
#WhoAmIJustGuess was trending on Twitter for everyone to offer their impressions of the ad as well as guess who the lovely lady was. Today, Roxy formally announced that the mystery lady in view was five time champion, Stephanie Gilmore from New South Wales, Australia.
What does all this have to do with mobile gadgets? Well as it happens, Microsoft is a sponsor so we see Stephanie start her day with a Windows Phone 8S by HTC and respond to an email on her Microsoft Surface tablet (odd that her email is a Gmail account for the ad though). Then it's back to the Windows Phone to get the tunes pumping to be ready for the water.
So, if you were not aware of the surfing event this week, now you are and here we see yet another example of Microsoft creeping a bit of its brand in as many places as possible. In this case, Roxy seems to be taking some heat for objectifying a surfette like that, but we bet a whole lot of folks are going to be interested in checking out the event.
The first video is the teaser, the second is one that gives it all away.

Promoters of development projects in forest areas can be made to compensate by creating buffer zones around sanctuaries through minor modifications to the Forest Conservation Act guidelines
The contentious issue of notifying buffer areas around tiger reserves came under sharp debate when the Supreme Court issued interim directions to stop tourism in core or Critical Tiger Habitats (CTHs) and notify buffer areas. However, after the National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA) filed comprehensive guidelines on tiger conservation and tourism on October 15, 2012, the Supreme Court permitted the reopening of tourism strictly in accordance with the guidelines. Visitation is now permissible in existing tourism zones subject to a maximum of 20 per cent of core areas being used. But the important issue of creating viable buffers around a core area lost focus even though the NTCA guidelines harp on its importance to sustain tiger populations.
In most tiger reserves, core areas comprise notified sanctuaries and/or national parks, which are to be managed as areas free of incompatible human activity. Reserved forests, deemed forests and other unencumbered government land with some vegetation immediately abutting the CTHs are to be notified as buffer areas, which can act as "shock absorbers" for core areas.
Viable buffers
While notifying such contiguous forests as buffer areas may be relatively easy, the real challenge is in creating viable buffers wherever private agricultural lands abut core areas. Merely notifying such areas as buffer or peripheral areas without any viable habitat, as is being done now, may not only fail to deliver the imagined benefits for tiger conservation but also lead to hostility and loss of support from the local community.
Yet, acquiring large extent of private land abutting tiger reserves, to insulate the entire core area with a complete "wrap around" buffer that can support wildlife might be impractical. So is there a way forward to resolve this important issue?
An innovative mechanism can be created within the current legal framework with some very minor modifications to the Forest Conservation Act, 1980 Guidelines. This could greatly contribute to creating additional areas as viable forested buffers around tiger reserves.
Presently, most development project promoters seeking diversion of forest land for a non-forestry purpose have to identify an equivalent area of non-forest land. This has to be transferred and mutated in favour of the forest department for declaration as reserved forest/Protected Forest (PF). The project must also deposit funds for taking up compensatory afforestation in such lands. Stage II clearance under the Forest Act is to be granted only after compliance of this important condition. As far as possible, such areas should be contiguous with reserved forests for effective management. This is mandated under Chapter 3 of the Act's guidelines.
Legal loophole
Unfortunately, in most cases, this important condition is relaxed based on certification by the State that sufficient/appropriate non-forest land is not available. In such cases a simpler condition of compensatory afforestation in degraded forest land twice the area diverted is insisted upon. This legal loophole has meant the loss of an excellent opportunity to create viable buffer areas as State governments routinely provide this exemption to most projects.
To facilitate the creation of viable forested buffers, the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF) must first revise the current guidelines appropriately to plug this loophole. A new mechanism must then be created whereby the Tiger Reserve Authority in each tiger reserve State identifies private (non-forest) land immediately abutting a reserve, based on scientific and objective criteria, to be developed as ecologically viable buffers.
Private enclosures within contiguous reserve forests can also be identified. This data must be shared with development project promoters to explore the possibility of them privately acquiring the lands to comply with the Forest Act guidelines.
There could be two possible scenarios under which this idea could be enabled:
1. The owner(s) of such identified farm land may be willing to sell the land at prevailing market prices (which the project proponent /owner mutually agree upon as in any private land transaction). The project promoter has to then transfer and mutate the land in favour of the Forest Department for notification as a reserve forest/PF, as mandated by existing guidelines or even as a conservation reserve under Section 36-A of the Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972 under the proposed new mechanism or;
2. The owner(s) may not be willing to sell but may be agreeable — with suitable benefits — to develop it as a private/community reserve based on an appropriate management plan. There are enabling provisions in the Wildlife Act, which allow for any individual/group of individuals or community volunteering to conserve wildlife and its habitat to approach the government for a notification. While the land will continue to be owned by the individual/community, the land use will be agreed upon jointly with the Forest Department based on a management plan.
Participatory plan
This will enable appropriate development of the private/community reserve or the land mutated in favour of the Forest Department, by creating suitable vegetation with mixed plantation/bamboo/grassy patches/salt licks, etc to attract wildlife. The funding for this can come from money deposited by the project promoter for compensatory afforestation. The individual or community could then be encouraged and assisted to develop a participatory community-based tourism plan with benefit sharing as envisaged in the new NTCA guidelines. The tourism pressure on core areas can thus be reduced progressively.
All that is required are some minor modifications in the Forest Act Guidelines to include the terms "Core or Critical Tiger Habitat," "Protected Area" and "Community Reserve" to enable identification and transfer of lands adjacent to these areas to the Forest Department by the project promoter. But for this idea to work, the MoEF must issue a proper clarification to States that, henceforth, transfer of non-forest land will not ordinarily be condoned.
This innovative mechanism, which is within the framework of existing laws, could open up tremendous opportunities for increasing viable buffers and creating additional habitats for wildlife where it is most needed — around tiger reserves/protected areas. It will not only help in achieving the true objective of compensatory afforestation, but also deliver benefits to local communities from the increasing economic opportunities of non-consumptive tourism outside core areas.

Better Than We Expected! We placed these jersey sheets on our bed eleven weeks ago. Every several days we take them off, wash them, and put them right back on. They are holding up very well. The black color is holding fast, despite washing. Their integrity is just fine; no unraveling, etc. And the best part: They feel DELICIOUS to the skin! With a pillow-top cushion on the mattress, the experience of lying in this bed is like floating on a cloud! We are going to buy another set, because eventually these will wear out, though it might be a long time from now.

Disposable sheets for the win! I've always loved modal sheets, and was looking for a set to match our new décor. When I found them on Overstock for what seemed like a decent price, I added them to my cart, paid up, and waited with bated breath. They arrived on time. The were soft, and blue, and snuggly. And the second time I took them out of the washer, I noticed there was a little hole in the fitted sheet. I was chagrined, of course. I'm a teacher, so I watch my spending carefully and expect my little luxuries to last. Two months worth of sheet-wear for 65 bucks did little to warm the cockles of my heart, especially when you consider that these softand snugglies were in rotation with two other (much older, but still whole) sets of sheets. So, I contacted customer service. Erick informed me that I should have returned my sheets within 30 days' time if I wanted a refund. Now, he offered helpfully, I could send them back--on my own dime--and the Returns Department would decide whether to issue a partial refund, and how much of a refund I might get. But all was not lost! Erick apologized for any inconvenience this might cause. So, yeah, I have holey sheets and I'm out a week's grocery money, but Erick, he's got my back. He even went so far as to apologize a second time, right before he encouraged me to join Club O so I could have more worthless, defective crap to admire---and pay for the privilege.

Bed Sheet Thread Count Fact Sheet
The thread count of bed sheets refers to the number of threads per square inch of fabric. For example, if a square inch of fabric in a 300-thread count sheet with a standard weave were examined closely, 150 vertical threads and 150 horizontal threads would be counted, for a sum total of 300. The higher the thread count, the softer and smoother the sheets will be. Thread count is an important consideration to take when choosing a new set of sheets, but it should not be used as a sole indicator of quality. Equally important in choosing a bed sheet is the type and quality of the materials used as well as the fabric's weave.

Generic and Non‐Generic Solutions
If you have an equation like , it is perfectly clear that the only possible solution is . However, if you have an equation like , things are not so clear. If is not equal to zero, then is again the only solution. However, if is in fact equal to zero, then any value of is a solution. You can see this by using Reduce.
In[1]:= |
Out[1]= |
In[2]:= |
Out[2]= |
A basic difference between Reduce and Solve is that Reduce gives all the possible solutions to a set of equations, while Solve gives only the generic ones. Solutions are considered "generic" if they involve conditions only on the variables that you explicitly solve for, and not on other parameters in the equations. Reduce and Solve also differ in that Reduce always returns combinations of equations, while Solve gives results in the form of transformation rules.
Solve[eqns,vars] | find generic solutions to equations |
Reduce[eqns,vars] | reduce equations, maintaining all solutions |
In[3]:= |
Out[3]= |
In[4]:= |
Out[4]= |
In[5]:= |
Out[5]= |
When you have several simultaneous equations, Reduce can show you under what conditions the equations have solutions. Solve shows you whether there are any generic solutions.
In[6]:= |
Out[6]= |
In[7]:= |
Out[7]= |
In[8]:= |
Out[8]= |
In[9]:= |
Out[9]= |
In[10]:= |
Out[10]= |
In[11]:= |
Out[11]= |
When you work with systems of linear equations, you can use Solve to get generic solutions, and Reduce to find out for what values of parameters solutions exist.
In[12]:= |
Out[12]= |
In[13]:= |
Out[13]= |
In[14]:= |
Out[14]= |

For nonlinear equations, the conditions for the existence of solutions can be much more complicated.

From my first pony ride, I fell in love with the sleek graceful artistic beauty of the horse. My love of photography and horses have encouraged me to capture the uniqueness of this animal in every aspect of it's life — from stall, to pasture to the show ring. Recognizing the love and devotion of my fellow horsemen has led me to the pursuit of capturing the special bond people have with their horse through the art of the portrait. I have found that like the Horse Whisperer, conversations with your horse can have a great bonding affect and capturing those special moments are priceless. My goal is to increase the appreciation of the horse in our daily lives through my photography. Enjoy. Prints of my work can be purchased at http://www.justplainhorsecrazy.com |

Edina Realty released a new iPad application developed by Mobile Realty Apps that features an improved design, enhanced map search and larger, high-resolution photos with custom navigation not seen in other real estate apps.
"Tech experts predict mobile Internet use will bypass desktop Internet use by as soon as 2015," says Bob Peltier, president and CEO of Edina Realty Home Services. "We are always reviewing online tools and mobile applications to ensure that we're not just keeping up; we're staying ahead of the marketplace." In 2012, visits to Edina Realty's mobile applications and mobile website made up 23 percent of all of the company's online visits.
Peltier says the new app is getting rave reviews from users because of its ease of use and popular features. The new iPad gives users access to all real estate property listings from Edina Realty and all other real estate firms that list properties for sale on one of several MLS® boards. One sample comment: "Awesome app! The map feature is really helpful, and makes sifting through lists feel much less overwhelming. Definitely recommend downloading!"
When the Edina Realty iPad app launches, properties for sale near the potential homebuyer's current location show up on an aerial view map; intuitive icons define the current status of the property, such as new, open and price reduced. Users can search for homes by price, city, zip code, MLS number or other criteria they care about. They can even compare kitchens, bathrooms, or exterior views of properties by swiping the photo galleries from the gallery view to compare photos from different properties side by side.
If they see a property they like while driving, a user can simply pull over and tap on "Home Scan" to get all the detailed information on that listing. Home Scan uses the iPad's GPS to overlay property information onto the live camera feed. Point the iPad in any direction, and properties for sale appear in the foreground. Users need only tap the screen for listing information.
Peltier says that Edina Realty is planning to launch new iPhone and Android apps as well as agent-branded mobile apps in the next couple of months.

CFMCH Receives Texas Health Care Quality Improvement Award
Cypress Fairbanks Medical Center Hospital
Thursday, 28 June 2007
Cypress Fairbanks Medical Center Hospital announced today that it has received the Texas Health Care Quality Improvement Achievement Award from TMF Health Quality Institute, the Medicare Quality Improvement Organization for Texas. TMF established the award program in partnership with Texas Hospital Association, Texas Medical Association, Texas Organization of Rural & Community Hospitals and Texas Osteopathic Medical Association.
The Texas Health Care Quality Improvement Award honors Texas hospitals that are performing quality initiatives aimed at improving outcomes in patient care by recognizing those hospitals that have improved their initial baseline performance on specific national quality measures.
The awards identify hospitals that have improved care on a composite scoring system, called the appropriate care measure (ACM), consisting of ten measures surrounding acute myocardial infarction (heart attack), heart failure, and pneumonia. These clinical areas are designated as national health care priorities by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Joint Commission, the nation's predominant independent, non-profit, standards-setting and accrediting body in health care.
Out of more than 390 eligible Texas hospitals, 63 met the criteria for the highest Award of Excellence. Cypress Fairbanks Medical Center Hospital was among a group of 25 facilities that were presented with the Quality Improvement Achievement Award, for attaining a minimum 80 percent performance score on the appropriate care measures. In addition hospitals had to improve a certain number of percentage points from their baseline measurement.
"To achieve this recognition, we initiated a quality improvement program with an interdisciplinary team, collected and submitted data over five quarters and had to demonstrate signification improvement on all ten of the national quality measures that make up the appropriate care measure," said Terry Wheeler, chief executive officer at Cypress Fairbanks Medical Center Hospital. "It was a significant amount of work, but well worth it because it is designed to improve patient outcomes, and that is the right thing to do for our patients. I'm proud of the efforts of the medical staff and our employees, and we will continue to enhance our quality improvement efforts through our collaboration with the TMF Health Quality Institute."
"With this significant achievement, it is clear these hospitals are focused on providing high quality care to their patients," said Tom Manley, chief executive officer of the TMF Health Quality Institute. "They recognize quality improvement is not only about data, but about people. These hospitals demonstrate they are dedicated to ensuring their patients receive the right care at the right time, every time."
More information on the award is available at the TMF Health Quality Institute Award Web site at

Gov't Considers New Vehicle Roof Safety Standards
Dennis Douda, WCCO
Rollover accidents are not that common, but they are among the deadliest types of crashes because the roof of the vehicle sometimes caves in.
The government is considering new safety standards, but critics say the new standards do not go far enough.
Rev. Lawrence Harris will never stand tall in church again, will never walk again and will never again live day-to-day with ease.
Ever since a serious rollover accident left him a quadriplegic, Harris's wheelchair has been a part of his daily life. He said he feels lucky to be alive, as more than 10,000 people die in rollovers each year.
Often times, people are killed when the car roof collapses.
"That's what came down and crushed my vertebrae," Harris said.
To reduce the risk, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is now proposing new roof strength standards.
Now, a roof has to withstand an applied force of one-and-a-half times the weight of the vehicle. The proposal increases that to two-and-a-half times.
NHTSA estimates the move would save an extra 13 to 44 lives each year. Safety experts said it is not nearly enough.
"There's no doubt that this rule would do very little to save lives," said safety expert Joan Claybrook. "The new proposal is really, almost worthless to us."
Claybrook and safety expert Sean Kane said nearly 70 percent of vehicles sold today already meet the proposed strength standard.
"These are the same vehicles that are causing death and injuries to the people that are in rollover crashes today," said Kane.
Kane points to case after case of rollover accidents with roofs collapsing, despite already meeting the proposed requirement. Harris's 1987 van would have met the new standards.
"I would have still ended up exactly where I'm at," Harris said.
NHTSA refused to go on-camera, but said if roofs are made too strong, there is a risk of making them too heavy, which would increase the rollover risk.
Leading injury expert Carl Nash, with the Center for Injury Research, disagrees.
"Manufacturers have the capability of making much stronger roofs without really adding much to the weight," Nash said.
Nash said at least one carmaker is already using state-of-the-art technology to surpass what the government is asking for.
"An example of that is the Volvo SUV, which rolls over very nicely," said Nash. "The roof remains in place, basically."
The Volvo roof is made to withstand more than three times the weight of the vehicle and is put through actual rollover testing.
"The roof doesn't rush, the windows don't break, people don't get ejected," Claybrook said.
Claybrook is calling for the government to require actual rollover testing. Now, cars must pass a strength test where metal plates are used to press down on the driver's side of the roof.
"It puts most of the pressure on the pillars that are over your shoulder, whereas when you actually have a rollover, it's the pillars that hold the windshield that are the ones that are really the most critical," Claybrook said.
NHTSA said the current test can simulate real-world rollover patterns and that the proposed standard of two-and-a-half times is enough.
Harris said he's living proof the new standards will not be enough. While it is too late for him, he said he his new mission is to help save others.
"We would feel terrible to realize that there are other people down the line that could end up as quads, as pars or even dead because we didn't take a stand," Harris said.
Government safety experts will decide whether to go with the new standards later this month.

Project Title: | Genome Sequencing to Identify Novel Genetic Factors for Breast Cancer Risk |
Fiscal Year: | 2013 |
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Genetic factors play an important role in the etiology of both sporadic and familial breast cancer, a complex, multifactorial disease. Known genetic risk factors identified to date, including both rare high- penetrance genes and common low-penetrance variants, explain only about 28% of heritability for breast cancer. Recently emerged evidence strongly suggests that most of the heritable risk for breast cancer and other complex diseases may be due to a large number of low-frequency moderate-penetrance genes that are difficult to identify using conventional family-based linkage analyses and genome-wide association studies (GWAS). In this application, we propose a novel study to systematically search for the entire coding region in the human genome to identify new genetic susceptibility factors for breast cancer. This study will be built upon the resources we established in three NCI-funded large epidemiologic studies conducted among women in Shanghai, in which genomic DNA samples and comprehensive clinical and epidemiological data were collected from nearly 8,000 breast cancer cases and a large number of community controls. Specifically, we propose to sequence the whole exome for 600 genetically-enriched breast cancer cases and 600 controls (Stage 1). Using data from Stage 1 and those from the 1000 Genomes Project, we will select approximately 350 promising genes for replication through variant genotyping (Stage 2) in an independent set of cases and controls. Approximately 20 genes will be selected for Stage 3 replication from those that show promising association in Stage 2 but require additional evaluation to either confirm or reject the hypotheses. To our knowledge, this is the first large association study for breast cancer using whole exome sequencing. With strong methodology and the use of novel technology and study design, the proposed study will identify novel genes and pathways that will significantly improve our understanding of breast cancer genetics and biology. Newly identified genes, particularly those with a substantial effect size, could serve as targets for novel cancer treatment and be used for cancer screening and risk assessment.

Soft park board for moguls?
I'm starting another thread to get help with finding a used board after this riding season. This is inspired by a post by coach Snowolf:
http://www.snowboardingforum.com/boa...tml#post821098 Submitted for discussion. What used board(s) would make a good "soft park board in moguls" I'm not sure what my board quiver will be, but I would like to work on boarding moguls. |

Billionaires do some bargain hunting
Bill Wrigley, executive chairman and chairman of the board of the Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company, left, and Bill Perez, Wrigley president and CEO, address a press conference about their company's merger with candy maker Mars Inc.
KAI RYSSDAL: Warren Buffett is 77 years old. Kirk Kerkorian is 90. Each of them has a net worth well into the 10-figure range. So when they start throwing their money around people pay attention. Mars, the candy company that makes M&Ms, among many other confections, is teaming up with Buffet to buy Wrigley for $23 billion. The Mars-Wrigley combo is going to be the biggest candy company in the world. Kirk Kerkorian started buying Ford shares back at the beginning of this month. He owns almost 5 percent of that car maker already. He announced today he wants more. Almost makes you forget all about subprimes and the credit crunch, doesn't it? Our New York bureau chief Jill Barshay reports.
JILL BARSHAY: Warren Buffet and Kirk Kerkorian aren't the only billionaires shopping for bargains in this market. Wilbur Ross has been buying mortgage companies too.
Quincy Krosby is chief investment strategist of The Hartford. She says the example set by these heavyweights may lure more buyers back into the market.
Quincy Krosby: Very, very experienced investors with terrific track records see value. That's a very good sign. What has been missing in this market has been confidence.
Krosby says the re-entry of long-term investors is a sign that the market is bottoming out. But it has a way to go. Mitchell Corwin is a candy industry analyst at Morningstar. He points out that Mars had to go cap-in-hand to Buffet.
Mitchell Corwin: I think it speaks to that there's still some turbulence in the credit markets that Mars had to creatively finance this acquisition of Wrigley.
Robert Teitelman is the editor of The Deal. He says the smart money thinks now is an ideal time to buy beaten down assets.
Robert Teitelman: Buffet is always most effective in markets where everybody else is desperate or fearful. He has the cash, he's got a giant war chest there. Kirk Kerkorian and his vehicle, Tracinda, are in the same position.
But Buffet and Kerkorian aren't like other investors. All the cash they've got stockpiled in those war chests acts as a cushion, which they may need if the markets keep giving all us a bumpy ride.
In New York, I'm Jill Barshay for Marketplace.

I think relationships that start off from the interwebs can be pretty cool. You definitely know a different side of the person first. While it may be awkward the first few times you meet, I think that's just normal in any relationship. It's just a bit more difficult when it comes to making decisions on where exactly to be together. It takes way more effort and time to make sure the stars are aligned properly.

Soon-to-be-former Twins centerfielder Torii Hunter was interviewed by Dan Bareirro on KFAN yesterday, and as usual had some interesting things to say. Among the most notable comments he made was that some people on the team need to be "slapped around" and learn how to play hurt. He went on to say that he wasn't singling out Joe Mauer, but I think it's clear that's probably who he meant. He also said the Twins need more "athletes" (really?) and that he doesn't see the Twins offering him a 5-year deal. You can listen to that interview here.
If he is gone, and I think most people think that's a fait accompli, this team is sorely going to miss Hunter in more ways than just on the field. We've all heard about him being the heart and soul of the team, but he's also one of the few with real charisma. Without him, the Twins become a team without any personality or flair. Mauer and Morneau are clearly the faces of the team, but as Morneau said to David Zingler, neither of them are guys who say a lot. So if Torii leaves, who becomes the voice of the team?

Former "Bleacher Bum" and longtime Indians fan Bob Collins pointed out the following Johan Santana "rumor" to me ealier today.
According to the post on Yahoo, the Twins may send Santana to the Dodgers for 23-year-old OF Matt Kemp (who would replace Hunter in CF) and LH pitching prospect Clayton Kershaw.
Surely, the Twins could do better -- I need a KG/Frank Viola-style 5 for 1, including at least one established major league star to even consider dealing the two-time Cy Young winner.
Otherwise, they might as well hang onto him and take the 1st round pick as compensation when he bolts via free agency.

COAL MINE FATALITY - On Friday, October 6, 2006, a 56 years old roof bolter with 27 years of mining experience was fatally injured by a roof fall. The victim apparently traveled into an unsupported area to mark the roof with chalk at locations he intended to install roof bolts. The piece of draw rock that struck the victim was approximately 6 feet by 3 feet, and ranged from 6 to 8 inches in thickness.
Never work or travel under unsupported roof. Conduct a thorough visual examination of the roof, face, and ribs immediately before any work or travel is started in an area and thereafter as conditions warrant. Know and follow the approved roof control plan. Be alert to changing roof conditions. Mark unsupported areas, on all accessible sides, with highly visible markers.
This is the 39th fatality reported during calendar year 2006 in the coal mining industry. As of this date in 2005, there were 16 fatalities reported in coal mining. This is the fifth fatality classified as Fall of Roof/Back in 2006. At this time in 2005, there were seven fatalities in this classification.
The information provided in this notice is based on preliminary data ONLY and does not represent final determinations regarding the nature of the incident or conclusions regarding the cause of the fatality.

US appeals court to hear Canada cattle case July 13 WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Department of Agriculture's appeal to allow imports of Canadian cattle will be heard in Seattle on July 13, a clerk for the U.S. Court of Appeals Ninth Circuit in San Francisco told Reuters on Thursday. The U.S. Agriculture Department is appealing a March ruling by a federal court in Montana that halted, at the request of U.S. ranchers group R-CALF USA, a government plan to allow imports of Canadian cattle under 30 months of age. Some 67 consumer, food safety, agricultural and other groups urged the appeals court on Thursday to keep the U.S. border closed to Canadian cattle imports to protect the public health. Supporters of R-CALF filed "friend of the court" documents, urging the appeals court to keep the border closed in the interest of public health. A total of four cases of mad cow disease stemming from Canadian cattle have been identified since May 2003. Currently only Canadian beef from young slaughtered cattle -- which are believed to pose the least risk -- can be exported to the United States. "The nation's human and bovine populations are jeopardized by baseless USDA action," the supporters said. Reopening the border to Canadian animals would mean "cattle from a diseased herd will come into the U.S., ending a ban designed to protect U.S. health interests," they said. "If BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy) is vectored into this nation, thousands of cattle producers, millions of cattle, tens of millions of people and billions of dollars are at risk." U.S. Agriculture Secretary Mike Johanns contends that Canada has sufficient safeguards in place to prevent the spread of mad cow disease. American meatpackers support the USDA, saying shipments of live cattle are urgently needed to avoid laying off workers and curtailing plant operations. South Dakota rancher Ken Knuppe, participating in a media conference call to announce the latest filing, said allowing Canadian cattle imports into the United States could pose a significant risk to current negotiations with Japan. Japan, which once ranked as the biggest buyer of American beef with imports of $1.4 billion, is considering re-opening its market to U.S. imports. "They don't want to be importing Canadian beef being sold as U.S. meat," Knuppe said, warning negotiations were likely to drag on if this was a worry. Japan banned U.S. beef after the first American case of mad cow disease was discovered 17 months ago. The infected animal was a dairy cow in Washington state, which had been imported from Canada. The final hearing in the Montana court is slated for July 27. Both parties have 14 days to tell the San Francisco appeals court if the July 13 hearing date is acceptable. http://www.reuters.ca/locales/c_newsArticle.jsp?type=topNews&localeKey=en_CA&storyID=8684248 http://www.metronews.ca/reuters_national.asp?id=76488 TSS

This was a pretty cool episode. Definitely a good end to this two parter. Now I don't want to give too much away, not even in a spoiler tag. I wasn't too sure what to think of Jonas Quinn, but now after watching a few episodes with him in it, I'm starting to warm up to him. I'm not sure if he's a complete replacement of Daniel Jackson, seeing as how he hasn't even joined SG-1 yet. Overall though, I think he'll be just fine. As for this episode, if you watched the first part, well, you can't miss out on the ending. It's pretty cool. ;)

By this point, the gate was first sealed, so to never be used again... Then the original gate was beamed on Thor's ship, and the one from Antarctica returned to the SGC... The one from Thor's ship was recovered by the russians, who made it working using a DHD... A deal was made, and they shut down the operations, provided that the SGC will share technology and experience with them... Then Anubis atacked the gate at the SGC (the one from Antarctica) with the weapon, O'Neill took it and blew it off through hyperspace. So the Antarctican gate is destroyed, and the original gate back in the SGC.

Okay, I'm halfway through watching the episode on Hulu, but I've just seen the scene with Jonas & Carter talking about the shaft, which made me happy for two reasons...
1) I'm now totally sold on Jonas being a suitable replacement for Daniel — the dude is just entirely too cool! His nonchalant look as Carter put the pieces together in her head, then saying, "I knew you'd think of something," had me clapping and cheering. 2) This time last year, I had been playing around with Second Life, and there was a sim that totally duplicated the SGC — the whole mountain! It had all 28 levels, and the whole layout was identical to the show! The whole gate opening sequence, all the right sound effects... it was just like being in the world of the show! (But, sadly, I think it's gone now.) One detail that caught my eye was the shaft that ran directly above the Stargate up through to the top of the "mountain". I'd said, "Ahhhhh, that would make sense, since those doors and corridors would be wayyyy too small!" I'd kinda wondered if the guy doing the 3D modeling had added that himself. See, at that time, I had only seen the first season and a half of SG-1 from its first run on Showtime. It's only in the last month or so that I've been getting myself caught up through Hulu. So, this episode was my confirmation about the shaft! Here are the only good pics I could find online... This post has been edited by Chris_Johnston: Nov 3rd 2009, 2:23 AM |

Chris, I agree Jonas could have been and should have been a good replacement for Daniel. Unfortunately, TPTB were trying to get MS back and so they never truly wrote correctly for Jonas. I thought they gave CM and very raw deal. I think you even saw that with RDA when he said goodbye to him at the end, "hey you earned it."
