Castro Valley, 4/23/13, Parsley blooms are starting to open
I have an Italian parsley that I have let go to seed. It is about 5 feet tall and developed what I had previously considered to be seed heads. Today some of them opened out into flowers. The plant produces numerous flower clusters, each looking like green Yarrow or Queen Anne's Lace, and each point in the cluster is a miniscule flower. These flowers sit there closed for the longest time, but today a very few have at last opened.
Your Turn
Ok, time for your reports. What is happening in the natural world in your vicinity, and where, at least in general, is that? Please post your observations in the comments as usual.
Thank you.
FWIW, I'll again be tending the diary intermittently, but will check in to rec and reply off and on throughout the day and evening.,

I think that saying #8 is third from the top is true. We're saying it's the 3rd rung from the top, not the 3rd rung from the top rung. Likewise, #3 would be the 3rd from the ground, but only the 2nd from the bottom rung, even though we agree it doesn't matter in this puzzle.
The Top is the Top Rung. So the third from the top is the 7th tave. The math is 8 hours. But that is not the correct solution as stated by many others.

it would still be the eight tave because it is 180/20 =9 but you forgot to add the extra tave at the water which would make it 10 taves total so the target tave would be the 8th tave, and thus, making the target height 140 cm which would then make the answer 9hours and 20 minutes: 140/15=9 1/3. but this is still wrong because the boat would rise with the water so the water would stay with the first tave
Ok first of all you got me. And so the math I did is irrelevant, but since others worked it out too, I am confused as to how you got to the answer of 10 hours 40 minutes to reach the 8th stave. As I did the math, the ladder is 180 cm long and the distance between staves is 20 cm. 180 / 20 = 9 staves. So if we are trying to get the the third from the top our target stave would be number seven not number eight.
If the above math is correct then the target height is 120 cm (remeber the number 1 stave is at 0 cm not at 20 cm)
If the target height is 120 cm and the tide rises at 15 cm per hour then it would take eight hours to reach the number seven stave (120/15).
Just assume the tide rises and the boat doesn't is my math faulty?

The Comoro Islands
The Comoros consist of four major islands and a number of smaller islets in the western Indian Ocean. Three of the islands, Ngazidja, Nzwani, and Mwali, are members of an independent country, The Union of the Comoros. In the map above, these islands have their names in their language. The fourth island is a department of France and 'Mayotte' is its French name. In the following pages, an island's local name is followed by its French name in parentheses. A common error is the reference to them as the "Comoros Islands." In English, the proper way to refer to them is "the Comoros" or "the Comoro Islands." Referring to them as "the Comoros Islands" is incorrect just as referring to the Falkland Islands as "the Falklands Islands" isn't correct. Occasionally, you may also read the Islands being referred to as "the islands of the moon." This is an interesting error based upon an Arabic inscription on an ancient map of the Indian Ocean. The Islands are identified on the map as ٵڶڨ٥ر which is Arabic for 'moon.' But it is also the way one would write "the Comoros" in Arabic. What apparently happened is the translation was written by someone unfamiliar with the Comoros and just mistakenly assumed the label meant they were called the "islands of the moon." That mistake has subsequently been repeated in various publications and one can still find it in print today.
Of volcanic origin, the Comoros arose from the seabed of the Indian Ocean between northern Madagascar and eastern Africa over the past millions of years with each of the islands having distinct characteristics due to their different ages. Maore (Mayotte), the oldest of the islands, has eroded mountains and slow, meandering streams. Ngazidja (Grande Comore), the youngest of the islands has a massive, active volcano that dominates two-thirds (2/3) of the island. It has several clearly discernable lava flows and no rivers. The other two islands have wooded mountains without any recent volcanic activity and rivers flowing to the sea. The Islands occupy a strategic position in the western Indian Ocean and the people of the islands have played an integral role in maritime trade for many centuries. This is reflected in the multicultural nature of the population. Africans, Arabians, Asians, and Europeans have all contributed to the mixture.
Documents written over the centuries in the islands tell of the history of the area and of the large, seaworthy sailing vessels that, until very recently, were involved in the maritime trading network. While the tales of Sinbad the Sailor are an entertaining and fanciful view of seafaring life in the Indian Ocean, they are based on the life of the sailors traveling between India, Persia, Arabia, Eastern Africa, and the African islands. Merchantmen traveled between ports in the Comoros, Kilwa, Oman, and the Malabar coast of India trading a wide variety of goods including gems, rare animals, slaves, exotic woods, and spices. Domoni, a town on the eastern shore of the island of Nzwani (Anjouan), was specifically mentioned as a major trading center in a document from the fifteenth century. This document was written by Ibn Madjid, a navigator at that time said to have guided Vasco da Gama from Africa to India. The navigator visited the Comoros on his Indian Ocean travels and noted that Domoni was a major port for African, Indian, and Persian sailing vessels. Archaeological evidence, furthermore, verifies that the town, founded as early as the 12th century, had been a part of the network of trade well before the sixteenth century European involvement in the Indian Ocean maritime trade.
Traditional sailing vessels of the Indian Ocean, much like the 60 foot merchantman pictured at right, carried tons of cargo and were notably fast sailing ships. They were especially remarkable in that nothing of the ship was made of metal. Even metal nails weren't used in the construction of the vessels. Their hulls were made of wooden planks sewn together with rope made from coconut fiber. They were very seaworthy, long lasting vessels well suited to the conditions of the ancient Indian Ocean maritime trade. They were flexible, shallow draft craft able to stand the pounding of surf without breaking apart when they approached a landing spot. The ports in the Indian Ocean rarely had deep water facilities in ancient times and ships would be beached or anchored close to shore.
During the sixteenth through the nineteenth centuries, large numbers of European and American ships visited the Comoro Islands. American whalers and pirates, including the infamous Captain Kidd, would anchor in Comorian waters to restock water and food. The island of Nzwani (Anjouan), in particular, was a favorite stopover for provisions. Occasionally, ships would take aboard islanders as crew or leave sailors ashore that were sick or had misbehaved. It was also a place where ships coming from or going to the United State traded mail. The British navy had a coal refueling station on Anjouan in the last half of the 19th century and since the middle of the 19th century French colonial administrators, plantation owners, and mercenaries became intimately involved in the life of the Islands. But, the demise of the whaling industry, the introduction of steamships, the opening of the Suez Canal, and the control of the islands by the French, the Comoros ceased to be a significant part of the western Indian Ocean international trading system. Today, they are truly "Forgotten Islands".
The mountainous islands have diverse microecologies with spectacular scenery, exotic plants and rare animals. Several species of animals are unique to the Comoros. One, Livingstone's Flying Fox, is a fruit bat that soars on wings spanning more than four feet. It roosts in steep-sided valleys high in the mountainous forests of Nzwani (Anjouan) and Mwali (Moheli). With disappearing forests due to increased human demands for cleared land and timber, the bat's habitat is diminishing and the species is endangered.
Several different kinds of insects and over a dozen bird species; including the Comoro Blue Vanga, Humblot's Sunbird, and the Anjouan-scops Owl, are unique to the islands. They also are under increased pressure from expanding human populations and facing a serious threat of extinction.
In the waters around the islands, lives the coelacanth, a species of fish with an amazing history. It was once thought by western scientists to have been extinct for 60 million years. But it was discovered in 1938 that they still exist and in the 1950s an ichthyologist learned that local fishermen catch coelacanths in deep water close to the Comoro Islands. Several specimens have since been caught, preserved, and sent to museums around the world. Today, Comorian fishermen still catch coelacanths. To learn more about this remarkable story visit the National Geographic web site.There are also videos of the fish on YouTube.
There is an abundance of life in the Indian Ocean surrounding the Comoros. One can find everything from giant whales, large sharks, big manta rays, sailfish, sunfish, to lobsters, crabs and tiny shrimp. Deep water close to the islands, coral reefs, miles of sandy beaches, plus fresh water streams and shoreline springs provide multiple habitats for marine life. In recent years, there has been an increase in pollution from human activity, unfortunately, that now seriously threatens the coastal life of the islands. The coral reefs and their associated sea life, in particular, are being affected.
Following the Berlin conference of 1884-5 in which European powers divided up Africa, the islands became a French colony. They remained under French political control until 1975. In that year, the local government declared the Islands' independence and formed the Federal Islamic Republic of the Comoro Islands. Three of the islands: Ngazidja (Grande Comore), Mwali (Moheli), and Nzwani (Anjouan), became members of the Republic but Maore (Mayotte), remained under French administration. Although control of the island by France had been challenged by the Comorian government and the claim that Mayotte belongs within the sphere of the independent nation of the Comoros was recognized by the United Nations General Assembly, it became a Department of France in March, 2011.
In 1997, separatists on the islands of Nzwani (Anjouan) and Mwali (Moheli) demanded more independence from the Republic. This led to the breakup of the Federal Islamic Republic and a reformation of the central government under a new constitution in 2001 as the Union of the Comoro Islands. The new constitution gave each of the three islands considerable autonomy. Besides an elected president of the Union, each island would have an elected president. In 2007, the president of Nzwani, who favored complete independence from the Union, refused to relinquish his position and agree to the results of a proper general election on the island. Consequently, in March of 2008, he was removed by a combined military force of soldiers from the Comorian Union and the African Union. This led to a constitutionally elected president of Nzwani and a return to a normalized relationship with the central government.
Under the Union's 2001 constitution, presidential elections were scheduled to be held every four years with the office rotating between the three islands. In 2006, Ahmed Abdallah Mohamed Sambi from the island of Nzwani (Anjouan) was elected President. He replaced Azali Assoumani from Ngazidja (Grande Comore). The current President, Ikililou Dhoinine, is from the island of Mwali (Moheli).

Fabio Cannavaro's agent insists his client wants a move back to Juventus, the club he left after the Calciopoli scandal burst onto the world scene.
Cannavaro's return to Juventus—should it happen—would mean a big pay cut for the Italian. In other words, Cannavaro must only desire to reunite with his former teammates.
The centre back's contract runs out at the end of June. Gossip Galore thinks Cannavaro can fit in better at Milan, as they have more 30-plus-year-olds there, and a return would mean a likely Nesta-Cannavaro reunion.
Another player who is free to go in the summer is Rory Delap. Delap, who can make a throw-in next to his own goal look dangerous, has not signed a new contract with Stoke yet.
Should Delap move, they might replace him with a shotput champion.
Michael Ballack might share the same fate and leave Stamford Bridge the same way he came. The German midfielder has not excelled at Chelsea and has forever seemed like the shadow of the Bayern dynamo he was years ago.
How about a Bayer Leverkusen reunion with Ze Roberto and Diego Placente? Could they finish second in every single competition again? Half-miracles do happen, but can this happen twice?
Meanwhile, Nuno Valente and Maniche can move on a free transfer at the end of June with their contracts set to run out at Everton and Atletico Madrid, respectively.
Could this mean a Porto reunion? Can they win the Champions League again? Full miracles do happen, but can this happen twice?
In Germany, Luca Toni has said that he could have joined Inter, Juventus, or AC Milan, but instead joined Bayern. In other words, Toni might be a great player, but he surely isn't among the smartest.
Meanwhile, Carlo Ancelotti has again denied all the rumors linking him to a move to Chelsea. Of course, in the modern world of football, that means he is likely to be coaching Chelsea next season.
Other names that have been linked to the Stamford Bridge hot seat (one that Guus Hiddink will keep hot until his replacement shows up in the summer) include Frank "4-3-3 Forever" Rijkaard.
Werder Bremen's Diego is wanted by Juventus. He has reiterated his desire to move to the Turin giants, but his current club is playing hardball, saying that the Brazilian is "priceless."
In other words, a significantly improved bid will do; they just want more money.
That's it for Gossip Galore.

Google Bids $900 Million For Nortel Patents
Google Inc. said on Monday that it plans to bid $900 million to buy Nortel Networks patent portfolio in a bankruptcy auction scheduled for June.
Nortel selected Google's offer as the "stalking horse bid" to serve as the starting point in the bidding process.
Nortel has been selling its operations piece by piece since it filed for bankruptcy protection in Canada and the U.S. in January 2009. Its patent portfolio includes about 6,000 patents and patent applications spanning a broad range of technology, including wireless, data networking and semiconductors.
The Internet giant said that it hopes Nortel's patent portfolio will discourage other companies from suing it, and help it continue to innovate in the absence of broad reform of the U.S. patent system.
Last month the Senate passed legislation that would make the most significant changes to the patent system in over 50 years.
The Internet giant said that a strong patent portfolio is the best defense against such litigation.
"The tech world has recently seen an explosion in patent litigation, often involving low-quality software patents, which threatens to stifle innovation," Google general counsel Kent Walker said in a blog post.
"Some of these lawsuits have been filed by people or companies that have never actually created anything; others are motivated by a desire to block competing products or profit from the success of a rivals new technology," Walker said.
"One of a company's best defenses against this kind of litigation is (ironically) to have a formidable patent portfolio, as this helps maintain your freedom to develop new products and services," he said.
"Google is a relatively young company, and although we have a growing number of patents, many of our competitors have larger portfolios given their longer histories," Walker said. "So after a lot of thought, we've decided to bid for Nortel's patent portfolio in the company's bankruptcy auction."

ANN ARBOR, Mich. The University of Michigan's first human embryonic stem cell line will be placed on the U.S. National Institutes of Health's registry, making the cells available for federally-funded research. It is the first of the stem cell lines derived at the University of Michigan to be placed on the registry.
The line, known as UM4-6, is a genetically normal line, derived in October 2010 from a cluster of about 30 cells removed from a donated five-day-old embryo roughly the size of the period at the end of this sentence. That embryo was created for reproduction but was no longer needed for that purpose and was therefore about to be discarded.
"This is significant, because acceptance of these cells on the registry demonstrates our attention to details of proper oversight, consenting, and following of NIH guidelines established in 2009," says Gary Smith, Ph.D., who derived the line and also is co-director of the U-M Consortium for Stem Cell Therapies, part of the A. Alfred Taubman Medical Research Institute.
"It now makes the line available to researchers who can apply for federal funding to use it in their work; this is an important step."
The line is the culmination of years of planning and preparation and was made possible by Michigan voters' November 2008 approval of a state constitutional amendment permitting scientists here to derive embryonic stem cell lines using surplus embryos from fertility clinics or embryos with genetic abnormalities and not suitable for implantation.
"We expect these cells will be used by investigators worldwide to enhance our understanding of stem cell biology, and together with disease-specific lines, discover treatments and cures for genetic diseases," says Smith, who is a professor in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Michigan Medical School.
U-M is among just a handful of U.S. universities creating human embryonic stem cell lines. There are only

STo NOT newbie friendly now - First 3 hours
After reaching current maximum level with my Tactical Officer, I decided to make a new toon and try again this time, trying to see how a totally brand new 'non-beta' player will see the first few hours of the game, and to be honestly, there are going to have a really rough time of it, general chat will be ablaze with 'Please help me' messages. I'm attemping to make this post from a potential new players point of view for the first 3 hours of play. Granted some of what I am about to post hopefully should not happen in general release since I kept running into bugs, especially with the Orion Patrol Missions that became un-completable.
After creating your character, and go through the tutorial instances which are all fine, introduce each aspect of the game, its pretty fast paced and will 'wow' a lot of new people, however once you enter the main game, things actually go way down hill fast, read on.
First off, you'll get the first couple of missions such as SS Azura and the first patrol mission. SS Azura difficulty level is fine, that'll cause no real problems as long as no one rushes the mobs after you talk to the captain. The real problems will begin with space combat missions such as Patrol Kei System (2), facing off one big group of 2 corvettes and 2 brigand cruisers at roughly level 2 in a Miranda? Even a seasoned veteran can't pull that off, so people say? Find a group....what if there are no groups available? I attempted this mission and gave up because its impossible and no one was in the queue, and you think I'm going to bother chat with 'please help me complete a mission' come launch, expect this one alone to cause big whine posts, the brigands needs to be separated so each one is a single encounter not just one big cluster.
Secondly, another issue is with the big nerfs to Secure Sirius Block, since that mission before catered to a larger group, many would afk during that and get some easy exp, however because of the nerf its now useless to a new player, even though its supposed to be a level (4) mission, and everyone here knows its crawling with Negh'Vars and Raptors, which will just laugh at newbie players in Mirandas, heck even with a highly-co-ordinated group it'll be rough, and add in the death penalty at launch?
Not to mention some missions like the Lost Miner unless fixed will annoy a lot of people, in the 'state of the game' notes, there was mention of scanning ability to at least figure out where to go, hopefully this will also work in missions like this, because honestly....escorting that slow freighter to the station is boring, slow and tedious and made even worse if you don't know where to go! And newbie players will not even have a clue.
So with that, I attempt to do try to figure out what a newbie player would do, and that would be to attempt a different patrol mission, I picked the secure Una system, after destroying the first 3 birds of prey which was tough, I then barely destroyed a k'tinga and now I'm pitted against a Raptor which again, was a tough fight something a newbie will have alot of problems with, and onto the next battle with was another set of 3 birds of prey who alpha strike killed me pretty in one shot, even with power systems set to defensive. Time to respawn, and try again....this time I kill them only because of surviving the alpha strike, and yes the devs DO know this is a major issue and they are working on it....onto the final part of this mission...joy another set of 3 BoPs but I defeat them and complete the mission and warp out to sector space and discover the mission didn't register 'as complete' so forced to do the mission again...'yeah a bug which hopefully shouldn't happen in general release' (In fact, mission has become completable now for me, even if I go back into the zone, and Sulu comes up with 'impressive work' definitely an error here, but continuing on as 'if' that completed normally. Chat error msg for Una system is "ZONE_Kfr_system-6577" is too long.
1 hour 40 minutes into the game
So looking at the episode log, I head for the Sirius sector block, and warp into be immediately attacked by 2 Negh'Vars, luckily I don't die because at least there are two Teir 2 escorts here, and looks like 1 afker...after first round being easy because of the teirs 2s here, I leave for another instance to try to find something that would be simpler to what to expect at launch, I find an instance with fellow Miranda's and everywhere you look, groups of Negh'Vars :rolleyes: after everyone dying a few times, either due to someone getting close to another group and pulling, or having groups spawn too close, it really became obvious that at launch, this zone needs to be looked at, no seriously it does. After 40 minutes of doing the mission, and 4 deaths I was rewarded with 2 drops, one being dual disruptors and some photon mines which obviously are a huge upgrade to the starting setup, and quarter of a level up. With my new upgrades I decide to go back and try Kei system...this time its easy since for some reason its groups of Corvettes instead of cruisers..go figure?
2 hours 20 minutes into the game
Few choices of missions available, Starbase 24 - Several Patrol Missions or Diplomatic Orders. Obviously, this sounds like the next step so we head to P'jem....arrived on planet as a ship..(yeah its beta :P) and we continue on, I have no problems with P'jem, ground combat was correct difficulty, and I had no problems with the dreadnought in the final phase, because I've already done it before. However, the entire episode took just slightly over an hour and the XP reward felt kinder low for the time spent, at least the shield reward was a big upgrade..
Summary over the first 3 hours of gameplay.
After the quick and dramatic tutorial/intro to STo, the player enters the main game with probably high hopes that that pace continues, unfortuntely once you enter the secure/patrol parts of the game, it quickly becomes tedious and slow with very little rewards for time spent, in fact some of the patrol missions themselves are far harder than they should be, this could be attributed to bugs though, the good side of things here is that the main plot missions themselves seem fine and for the most part ready to launch, however the patrol missions and the secure sector missions need some looking at.
Nerfing Sirius to allow for 1 group is a bad mistake, its not really stopping the afkers, there just hiding much further out and having Mirandas face off multiple groups of Negh'Vars and Raptors, especially if the starting equipment is terrible is a BIG, HUGE error. There needs to be some more starter missions that can at least upgrade your Mirandas basic firepower because standard equipment will not cut it period, and come launch everyone who will head straight into these encounters will be in for a nasty surprise.
I suggest the devs look into adding more missions/episodes for the starter levels that reward the player with some basic upgrades from the starting gear. Especially weapons, piloting a Miranda is bad enough, its moves like a cow stuck in the mud and twice as weak, so anything that'll upgrade it will help new players out no end.
I agree with pretty much all of the original post. To sum up:
* The step from Sol to Azarus is confusing because the tutorial does not explain navigation.
* Many of the space combat missions are unbalanced for solo play. I get blown up frequently at lower levels.
* The contrast between team play and solo play is so huge, that it makes solo play tedious indeed. There's nothing worse in this game than flying into a combat situation with no reinforcements, only to get cut in half by a volley of 3 torpedoes.
I agree, going along happily and then discovering that you are supposed to take on a battle Cruiser makes life hard, I actually waited until I had nearly fully upgraded my gear before I could finish the Kei patrol mission, first ship each time was a BC at '0' rating that wiped my shields almost instantly!
I plan on playing alot of the game solo and some of it is very hard to do so, the Deep Space encounters are a pain too when you get lumped with Tier 2 ships and suddently have to go against High Level +2 ships :(
I have been playing MMO's since EQ came out, and all kinds of games for the last 24 years. I am now into STO at the 8hr plus mark, and I have not got a single energy credit to my name. I have no idea how to get my inventory items scanned that need it so that I can maybe sell them (I hope).
I have been looking forward to this game for a long time, and have been a fan of the series since The Original ST. I can honestly say that if some kind of manual or tutorial doesn't appear soon to tell me how to play the game, sadly I will not be subscribing. I was all set to lay out for a lifetime membership, now I'll play for the beta and my free 30 days and hope for the best.
The game is as much fun as it can be when I seem to be getting nowhere. This is honestly the most newbie hostile game I have ever played. Thanks to the OP for bringing this topic up!!
Please dev's, get this thing on the right track!! I really want to see it succeed!
I did complete the mission solo, but I was lvl6 doing a lvl 4 mission....
Like when you're flying through sector space and are randomly dropped into a Deep Space Encounter where you spawn instantly surrounded by 20 enemy ships who insta-pop you with an insane alpha strike :rolleyes:

comment:1 Changed 3 years ago by kris
Sounds like a driver corruption causing display issues? It could also be a slow USB disk read causing it to go a bit quirky. Can you test the DVD installer, does it boot normally?
comment:2 Changed 3 years ago by empathica
the actual usb installer worked. it was the installed system on the laptop that messed up. I tried installing it with the dvd, and the installer booted up just fine and installed, but when I tried to boot off the disk, it gets to the point of activating the X server, when it reboots instead of succeeding.

Can you retest this on 9.2 Release and let us know if it is still an issue?

DOE Offers Dire Warnings Of Climate Change's Impact On Energy Grid
Brett Smith for redOrbit.com – Your Universe Online
A new US Department of Energy (DOE) report warns about the massive direct and indirect impacts climate change is expected to have on the United States' energy grid in the coming years.
Citing a shortage of cooling water for power plants, low water levels hampering coal barge and oil tanker traffic, and raging wildfires taking down transmission lines, the report asserts the effects of climate change are already being felt by the nation's energy sector.
"Increasing temperatures, decreasing water availability, more intense storm events, and sea level rise will each independently, and in some cases in combination, affect the ability of the United States to produce and transmit electricity from fossil, nuclear, and existing and emerging renewable energy sources," the report reads.
Last year, the Millstone Nuclear Power Station in Connecticut had to deactivate one reactor because the water it normally draws from the Long Island Sound for cooling was too warm, the report noted. Similar events took place at the Hope Creek Nuclear Generating Station in New Jersey and the Limerick Generating Station in Pennsylvania in 2010.
In another incident affecting the energy grid, lower precipitation levels in the Sierra Nevada last year reduced California's hydroelectric power generation by 8 percent. In 2010, record-low water levels in Nevada's Lake Mead resulted in a 23 percent loss in the Hoover Dam's power generation.
The report said higher temperatures, particularly in the western US, are also increasing the demand for air conditioning, forcing blackouts and brownouts in some areas. The DOE's Argonne National Laboratory said air conditioning demand in the western US will require 34 gigawatts of additional capability by 2050 at a cost of over $40 billion.
"We don't have a robust energy system, and the costs are significant," Jonathan Pershing, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Energy for climate change policy and technology and the report supervisor, told the New York Times. "The cost today is measured in the billions. Over the coming decades, it will be in the trillions. You can't just put your head in the sand anymore."
In addition to leveling a series of dire warnings, the report also outlined several steps that could reduce the nation's vulnerability to increased demands on its energy grid.
The report emphasized the need for energy storage and enhanced grid supervision. The authors also suggested the development of "microgrids" and "controlled islanding," to make the grid less susceptible to climate impacts.
To guard against 'superstorms' that many expect to see more frequently because of climate change, the DOE recommended the "placement of substations and other critical local electricity infrastructure in locations that are not anticipated to be affected by storm surges."
The government agency also said "unconventional" oil and gas operations, such as hydrofracking facilities, should take steps to limit their use of freshwater through the use of brackish water or so-called "dry fracturing" techniques.
The report also highlighted the use of energy generation by wind and solar, which don't require the use of fresh water to spin turbines or release greenhouse gas.
"(Solar) and wind energy have experienced cost reductions, encouraging greater market deployment of these more climate-resilient technologies," the report noted.

In this Leslie's Swimming Pool Supplies video, you will learn five things you can do to keep algae out of your pool.
- Circulate and filter the water in your pool
- Have a regular cleaning routine
- Maintain a chlorine level of 1 to 3 ppm
- Keep phosphates out of your pool
- Regularly test your water
At Leslie's, we offer our customers a 5-Year-Algae-Free guarantee. If you want to know more about algae, visit lesliespool.com or speak to one of our knowledgeable staff members at one of our 800 stores.
Video transcription:
Hi I'm Peter with Leslie's swimming pool supplies and this video will show you how to keep your pool algae-free. Once you get algae in your pool it's tough to get rid of it and keep it from coming back. Here are 5 important things you can do to keep your pool algae-free.
First circulate and filter the water. Your pool's pump and filter help mix chemicals throughout the pool and remove dirt and debris from the water. During the summer months you should run your pool's pump and filter one hour for every ten degrees of outside temperature.
Next have a regular cleaning routine that keeps dirt and debris out of the pool. Every week you should brush the walls and steps. Skim debris from the surface and floor and vacuum the pool. You should also regularly every the basket in your skimmer and the basket in your pool pump.
Next maintain a chlorine level of 1-3 parts-per-million. The easiest way to do this is with the floating or in line chlorinator that use a slow dissolving chlorine tablets. Chlorine help sanitize and disinfect the water by killing bacteria. You may also need to shock or super chlorinate your pool when its low on chlorine. We recommend Leslies Chlor-Bright or Leslie's Power Powder Plus. These products add a larger dose of chlorine that dissolves quickly and helps kill algae.
Next keep phosphates out of your pool. Phosphates are organic matter that come from things like lotions, leaves and debris.
Finally regularly test your water to ensure that it's properly balanced. We recommend you test your water two times per week during the summer months and every two weeks bring a sample of your pool water into one of our stores for free comprehensive water analysis.
Maintaining algae free water will help keep your pool and spa clean, safe and ready to enjoy. In fact we're so confident in our products that Leslies offers its customers a five-year algae free guarantee.
If you have any other questions about algae, call or visit your local Leslies store to talk to an expert. For more videos and pool care tips visit our website.

Burton Albion boss Gary Rowett happy with QPR draw
Posted: August 15, 2014|
GARY Rowett is excited at the prospect of a tie with Premier League new boys Queen's Park Rangers in the Capital One Cup.
Burton Albion were drawn at home to the Londoners after beating Wigan on Tueday.
The tie will take place on Wednesday, August 27 – and after missing out on Manchester United and Derby County, Rowett says it is the next best thing.
"That little five per cent in the back of your mind wants Derby or Manchester United," said the Brewers boss.
"Statistically, that was very unlikely to happen, so you just want a Premier League side, at home or away.
"You would hope that after the game against Wigan one or two more people might come down to watch – I'm not quite sure how many QPR will bring either.
"Playing a Premier League side at home is a great occasion and we've not let the fans down playing against sides from the top level in the cups.
"We've never taken a hiding and been nowhere in the game.
"But people are realistic and know they're difficult games. We might just have a fraction of a chance like we had against Fulham, especially if QPR rest one or two."
But Rowett says he has little time to mull the game over with League Two's intense schedule.
"I won't be thinking too much about it as the games come thick and fast at this point in the season – I think we've got seven games in August and it's Saturday, Tuesday, Saturday, Tuesday," he said.
"You tend to just focus on the next game."

Sunday May 18, 2008
By LEON WING
Not when you have an anti-book banning forum, performance poetry, books being given away – and a girl in bubble wrap wandering around.
IN the wake of the recently concluded KL International Book Fair came the KL Alternative Book Festival (KLAB Fest), held at The Annexe, Central Market, earlier this month.
It might not have been as huge as the former, but it is the KLAB Fest that will make its mark in local publishing annals because it was fun, cool, intimate, and, best of all, truly alternative.
Participant Sufian Abas, author of the intriguing short story collection, Kasut Biru Rubina: Koleksi Fiksyen Pop Untuk Jiwa² Hadhari Vol 1, felt, "This fest is more lively and more intimate than the (international) book fair held in KLCC. You get to meet lots of people here."
But what was "alternative" about it? Well, unlike the international fair, the emphasis at the KLAB Fest was on local publications. And, it seemed, on giving stuff away. For free.
Bernice Chauly, author of poetry collection The Book of Sins, said, "There is enough local work published to warrant such an event now."
Suara-Suara's Raja Ahmad couldn't agree more. "This fest attracts a different crowd from other book fests, mainly younger people and people more into the arts and culture, people who truly love books."
Chuah Guat Eng of Hologram Books, whose short story collection, The Old House is creating a buzz in publishing circles, said, "We should have more of these events, especially for independent publishers."
The signs one saw at this fest were also distinctly different: student Priya pointed out one that said, "Reading is sexy". That was put up to encourage the public to buy from a stall trying to raise funds for students hoping to finance their cultural exchange trip to Britain. The books they were selling had been donated by Silverfish Bookstore owner Raman Krishnan, who regularly publishes the Silverfish collections of new writings.
You wanted free books? You just had to turn right from Priya's stall and head towards the Book Giveaway stall. By the end of the two-day event, the stall had given out almost 300 books.
Across from the Giveaway stall, another stall was also giving away books, but with a difference. Fest attendees had to first surf to bookcrossing.com and enter a Bookcrossing ID. "Synical" (a bookcrossing ID) explained, "Just enter a quick note to say who's having the book. Then just pass it on to another person to pick up and do the same."
Sarahunhoda, from Komiktanchiah, was also giving stuff away, his magazines. Next to him, someone was actually selling something: the distributors of Sol-jah.
Across from Bookcrossers, Tokobuku's Faisal was exhibiting his work as a step towards expanding his fotopages.com into a retail business. Underlining the fest's alternative (almost anti-establishment) feel, some of the books he displayed had no ISBN number.
He explained: "For some writers, it's a hassle to obtain the ISBN from the National Library, as they would have to reveal their identity – and that can be a risk for some of them."
Then Faisal, with Bersih (the Campaign for Free and Fair Elections), helped launch Selak, a book featuring pictures of the Nov 10, 2007, rally. For a bit of light relief, Bubu the clown also helped....
Later, in the same hall, Astora Jabat, deputy editor of Al-Islam and columnist for Utusan Malaysia; V. Gayathry from the Centre for Independent Journalism; and Norhayati Kaprawi from Sisters In Islam talked about book banning – with the very participatory audience holding banned books.
Most participants are happy with the response to their stalls. Asia Pacific Distribution's Jack Binwani observed, "There are lots of intellectual people here, both adults and teenagers alike, who enjoy books."
Before the end of the first day, one Mooza Mohd hopped around wrapped from neck to toe in plastic bubble wrap.
It was her eye-catching way to draw attention to a good cause, Food Not Bombs.
Don't we all love bursting those bubbles? For a RM1 donation, you could do just that, as well as make a wish, writing it onto sticky tape that went over the wrap.
On the second day of the KLAB fest, arts website Kakiseni launched its Kakiscript competition and gave out free copies of last year's winners' works.
Another interesting launch was that of Nathaniel Tan's book, Religion Under Siege?
Names, with a capital "N", that turned up: Confessions of an Old Boy: The Dato' Hamid Adventures author Kam Raslan was at the Book Giveaway stall signing his books; and none other than National Literature Laureate Datuk A. Samad Said, aka Pak Samad, dropped in and was very happy to have found two locally published books written in the 1950s.
In the afternoon, when it was hot outside, it was cool inside The Annexe in more ways than one. Poetry Underground's George Wielgus delivered performance poetry with rhythm and gusto. Mooza, along with a few other poets, orated with aplomb.
Indie filmmaker and author Amir Muhammad, one of the festival's organisers, said he was really looking forward to holding next year's KLAB Fest, with the same favourable outcome. Or, perhaps, even more alternative?
Leon Wing loves books and occasionally reviews some for StarMag.

ANGRY Tony Jeffries is vowing to make a twit out of bitter rival Matt Hainy on Friday (June 4).
The Olympic bronze medallist (6-0) faces the Derby battler in a six rounder at Peterlee Leisure Centre.
But Jeffries, 25, has been riled after mates of Hainy (6-0-1) gave him stick on social networking site, Twitter.
He revealed: Within minutes of the Hainy match being made; his mates were on Twitter giving me a bit of stick.
They were saying he was going to hammer me and all that. Lets see if they are so brave behind a keyboard after the fight.
We are both doing well as professionals and it is good that prospects arent avoiding each other all the time.
We are both trying to reach the top and have ambitions. I am happy to have home advantage even though there is added pressure.
The Sunderland star hopes to win his first professional title later this year and is setting his sights on English champion Paul David.
He said: I'm not going to put pressure on myself by saying I'm going to do this or that. I'm still learning.
If I can get the English title this year, I'll be happy and then look for bigger things.
Heading the talent stacked Sky televised bill is a vacant British bantamweight title showdown between Ian Napa (19-8) and Stuey Hall (6-0-1)
Heavyweight Dave Ferguson (11-2) faces Paul Butlin (12-11) and leading British lightweight John Watson (12-0) is also in action.

STUEY HALL has already be KOd while preparing to face Ian Napa for the vacant British bantamweight title.
But Hall (7-0-1) who faces the former two-time champion at Peterlee Leisure Centre on Friday (June 4) hasnt been troubles by sparring partners the pain has come from not working.
Darlingtons Hall runs a roofing business, but has been forced to let his customers put up with leaks preparing full-time for two months at trainer Mike Marsdens Leeds gym.
Hall who gatecrashed the domestic scene when he shocked Martin Power last September said: It is my destiny to win this fight and the sacrifices will be worthwhile.
"I think I'm progressing well considering I left the amateur game relatively late in my career.
For that I have a lot to thank Mick Marsden whose management has been unbelievable. I've had some very good sparring at Leeds and Im in the condition of my life.
The north-east has been a hot bed for British bantamweight with former champions including Hartlepools John Feeney and Sunderland ace Billy Hardy.
Hall, 30, added: "Napa is a class act but he's got to get to me on the night. He's only 5ft 1in and I'm 5ft 8in so the height advantage is clearly with me.

I damn near killed myself chasing a cabbage down a mountain once. That was pretty funny.
the part in the quick look where the mountain cat gets knocked out of the park by a giant was hilarious but ive seen the giants do that so many times now its lost its impact, the funniest thing i have seen is in one particular dungeon i had a follower and on the floor a trap with a spring loaded arm, as i stood there looking through my inventory my follower sprinted towards what i can only assume was distant enemy only to be thwarted time and time again by the trap, in hilarious fashion he would ragdoll shoot across the room and sit in the injured animation before regain composure and yelling "i'll get you this time" or something to that effect.
I watched this for over 20 minutes before i relented and helped him achieve his goal.

lol at Gamer poop!
Today I just walked out of Windhelm and there were 2 Lois Letrush's standing side by side. They were close enough so when I talked to them they both responded at the same time with the same thing. Then I shot one in the head and the other clone said "no don't hurt me again!"
I was fighting a dragon one time and hit it with an arrow while it was flying through the sky. He then proceeded to roll into a ball and spun for a bit. Then he started flying backwards. I hit him with an arrow again and he just took off straight into the sky. No flapping his wings or anything, just a dragon model heading straight into the sky. Wow did I have a good chuckle at that one.

Two things happened last night. I was exploring and a dragon spawned out of the ground right underneath a giant. As the dragon flew into the air, the giant managed to stand on top of the dragon for a few seconds. Right up until the dragon clipped directly into a mountain. O.o
Then, a little later, I found a skeleton monster, one who would normally try to kill me, just chilling. It was just standing there in middle of a field not doing anything except being a skeleton. I took a picture of us together. hahah...

During the Daedric quest that involved the nightmares in Dawnstar, right before the priest and I got to the castle or whatever, we were attacked by a pack of bears that apparently were guarding this place. I used the Kyne's Peace shout to calm them down and then sprinted for the door. But, instead of going in, the priest wanted to give me the whole backstory of the place. The whole time he was talking, I was looking over his shoulder saying, "Hurry up dude, these bears aren't just gonna sit there forever!" And of course, the shout wore off before he was done and they nearly killed him before I was able to finally get inside the place.
Even funnier, after I finished the quest, I saved and quit the game for the night before leaving the castle. The next time I played, I had completely forgotten about the bears and just casually strolled out the front door. My character's a high enough level, so I wasn't in any danger of getting killed by the bears, but they sure did scare the shit out of me.

Electra (Sophocles)
Sophocles (sŏf´əklēz), c.496 BC–406 BC, Greek tragic dramatist, younger contemporary of Aeschylus and older contemporary of Euripides, b. Colonus, near Athens. A man of wealth, charm, and genius, Sophocles was given posts of responsibility in peace and in war by the Athenians. He was a general and a priest; after his death he was worshiped as a hero. At the age of 16 he led the chorus in a paean on the victory of Salamis. He won his first dramatic triumph in 468, over Aeschylus, and thenceforth wrote copiously (he composed about 123 dramas), winning first place about 20 times and never falling lower than second. A definitive innovator in the drama, he added a third actor—thereby tremendously increasing the dramatic possibilities of the medium—increased the size of the chorus, abandoned the trilogy of plays for the self-contained tragedy, and introduced scene painting. Seven complete tragedies (difficult to date), part of a satyr play, and over 1,000 fragments survive. Ajax is perhaps the earliest tragedy; three actors are used but the form is handled imperfectly. In his other plays, whether with two or three actors, the dialogue is polished and smooth. Antigone (c.441) contains extraordinarily fine characterization. The most famous of his tragedies (cited by Aristotle as a perfect example of tragedy) is Oedipus Rex or Oedipus Tyrannus (c.429), in which Greek dramatic irony reaches an apex. The plot is based on the Oedipus legend. Electra (date uncertain), the Trachiniae (date uncertain; on the death of Hercules by the blood of Nessus), and Philoctetes (409) followed. Oedipus at Colonus was written shortly before Sophocles' death and was produced in 401. A sequel to Oedipus Rex, it tells of the last days and death of Oedipus; it is a quiet, simple play of great beauty and power. There is also extant about half of a satyr play (Ichneutae or The Trackers, written perhaps c.460) on Hermes' theft of Apollo's cattle. The characters in Sophocles are governed in their fate more by their own faults than by the actions of the gods as in the tragedies of Aeschylus. Sophocles is supposed to have said that Aeschylus composed correctly without knowing it; Euripides portrayed people as they were; and he painted people as they ought to be. The translation by Richmond Lattimore and David Grene, The Complete Greek Tragedies (1959) is one of the many English translations of Sophocles.

Granholm wants to use veto power to shape budget
By AP
DETROIT, MI – Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm wants the Republican-led state Senate to send her budget measures that already have been passed so she can use her veto power to shape the final spending plan.
The Democratic governor told reporters after a Midwestern Governors Association event Wednesday in Detroit that some budget measures "are not satisfactory."
She wants lawmakers to restore the Michigan Promise Grant college scholarship, boost health care programs and lessen the decrease in revenue sharing payments that go to local governments.
House Democrats have begun passing bills to raise money for those items.
Senate Republicans are holding onto six spending bills because they don't want the governor to veto all or part of them. The state is running on a monthlong interim budget.

Nada on the Brink
Once again, Ludlow Street's Nada faces a rent crisis, though this time it may be a fatal one. The venerable downtown theater incubator needs to pay up more than $18,000 in back rent by October 17, or the landlord and city marshal will boot the theater from its space. (To be replaced, no doubt, by yet another bar where young Upper West Siders can spill Cosmopolitans on themselves while letting loose loud, New Economy guffaws.) In a last-ditch effort to raise the cash, artistic directors Aaron Beall and Ian Hill have scheduled an emergency benefit for Monday, October 16. On tap: a stage version of It's a Wonderful Life, featuring members of the Drama Dept., Target Margin, Elevator Repair Service, Danse Macabre, and Gemini Collisionworks. Doors open at 7 p.m., the show is at 8:30, and a donation of any size gets you in. 167 Ludlow Street, 212-420-1466.

Welcome to Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority
Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority (MVCA) is one of 36 Conservation Authorities in Ontario. Formed in 1968, MVCA's mandate is to manage the watershed's resources in partnership with our eleven member municipalities and the Province of Ontario.
Draining over 250 lakes and wetlands, the Mississippi River watershed encompasses an area of 3,750 km² from its headwaters at Mazinaw Lake to its confluence at the Ottawa River. Together with the drainage areas of the Carp River, MVCA has a total jurisdiction of 4353 km².
Prevent Flood Damage To Your Home, Protect Local Wildlife, And Keep Your Drinking Water Clean
Protecting the needs of landowners and the environment by using an Integrated Approach to Watershed Management, MVCA works to keep your drinking water, local ecosystems, and your property safe. Let us help you reconnect with the natural environment by visiting locally significant areas, taking up stewardship practices at home or by monitoring your water quality.

Low water conditions persist throughout Mississippi River Watershed
May 18, 2015 MISSISSIPPI VALLEY WATERSHED—As a result of very little precipitation across the Mississippi River watershed over the last few weeks, water levels on most lakes and many rivers and creeks remain quite low for this time of year.
While not in a drought condition as yet, the situation is certainly trending in that direction with minimal precipitation in the long range forecast.
With water levels on the lakes and rivers low, boaters are advised to use caution when out on the water as shoals that would normally be well submerged may be close enough to the surface to damage propellers or cause other damage.
At this time, residents in the watershed are strongly urged to reduce their consumption of potable water. Using rain barrels to capture any rain to water lawns and gardens and avoiding using pressure washers to clean houses, driveways, decks and fences, all contribute to the conservation of our water resources. For more water conservation tips visit www.mvc.on.ca.
A significant rainfall over a large portion of the watershed will be required to return the watershed to normal conditions.
This Watershed Conditions Statement is valid through June 1, 2015. Additional statements will be issued when or if conditions are expected to change significantly from this outlook.
Daily water levels and flows are available on the MVCA website at www.mvc.on.ca.
The Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority flood forecasting and warning program monitors weather conditions, snowpack water content, estimates expected river flows and water levels and issues flood advisories or warnings as required. MVCA provides early warning and continuous monitoring to municipal and provincial emergency response personnel through a flood event.
