Fairy slipper has a circumboreal distribution. In North America, it occurs extensively across the United States and Canada, ranging from Alaska east to Newfoundland and south to California, New Mexico, and Michigan. Historic populations in New York and New Hampshire have been extirpated [42]. The Flora of North America. provides a distributional map for fairy slipper.
Calypso bulbosa var. americana occurs throughout most of the general distribution of the species, except in Idaho, Oregon, and California. Calypso bulbosa var. occidentalis occurs in Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, California, Alaska, and British Columbia [26].

Website reform task force gets marching orders
Thursday - 8/18/2011, 4:59pm EDT
By Jason Miller
Executive Editor
Federal News Radio
A 16 member .gov Reform Task Force made up of new media and policy types from large and small agencies will develop a new approach for how best to establish and maintain federal websites.
The task force, created by the Office of Management and Budget, will work with the White House and the General Services Administration-which manages the .gov domain-to upgrade federal Web policies, and the criteria and process for granting new .gov domains.
The group includes Sheila Campbell, GSA's director of the Center for Excellence in Digital Government in the Office of Citizen Services and Innovation, Lee Ellis, the .gov domain program manager at GSA, Macon Phillips, the White House director of digital strategy, Kodiak Starr, the White House's creative director of new media and Chris Vein, the deputy chief technology officer for government innovation in the White House's Office of Science and Technology Policy.
Federal chief information officer Steven VanRoekel detailed the task force's goals in a memo issued Aug. 12. The guidance also freezes new federal websites for until Dec. 31-an additional 90 days after the initial freeze.
OMB froze all new federal websites in June and required agencies to inventory and make a plan to reduce the number of federal sites.
The administration said agencies run more than 2,000 .gov websites and 24,000 sub-sites or micro-sites. OMB said this large number of websites is causing citizens to be confused and have difficulty in navigating and finding information they need.
VanRoekel gave agencies a two deadlines over the next few months:
- Sept. 6: Report interim progress on streamlining agency-managed .gov sites, including a list of domains shut down since June 13, and those that have been consolidated or redirected. Describe plans to streamline remaining sites.
- Oct. 11: Conduct an inventory and analysis of each .gov domains and assess agency Web governance. Develop a Web improvement plan.
VanRoekel said the inventory and analysis must collect key management data such as cost, 508 compliance, cybersecurity and six other areas. Agencies should identify websites that provide high value to the public and can serve as a model for other agencies. They must gather baseline data on the state of Web governance and operations.
The improvement plan should include a strategy to better manage websites and other online content and enhance customer experience in using the sites.
Once OMB gathers all this data, the .gov Reform Task Force will develop a federal Web strategy for a long-term vision of what the citizen experience should be and create common tools and best practices to make Web operations more effective and efficient.
Avoid problems from cuts to gov websites

Greece's Defence Minister on Thursday promised "colossal" cuts in military operating costs to help the debt-ridden country emerge from its financial crisis and speed up plans to modernise the armed forces.
Defence Minister Evangelos Venizelos Greece is aiming to slash operating costs by up to 25 percent in 2010 from 2009, instead of the planned reduction of 12.6 per cent listed in this year's budget.
"That is a colossal amount, reaching the margin of our operating needs," said Mr. Venizelos, insisting that the cuts were not a direct result of the Greek debt crisis, nor would affect the strategic balance with historic rival Turkey. Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan is to visit Athens next month.
Greece remains at odds with neighbour and NATO ally Turkey over the divided island of Cyprus and boundaries in the Aegean Sea but has improved ties over the past decade.
Athens is currently in talks with the European Union and IMF for a rescue package worth €45 billion ($60 billion) this year, and more for the following two years, to cope with its acute financing crisis that has brought it to the brink of default. The prospect of a deal eased massive pressure on Greece in the bond markets and saw shares on the Athens Stock Exchange rebound strongly after days of heavy losses.
But unions, angry at the prospect of more austerity measures are planning a general strike on May 5 as part of a renewed protest campaign. Officials have been reluctant to say what measures are being discussed before the bailout talks are concluded.
"It is certain that all these measures and decisions are painful," said government spokesman Giorgos Petalotis, who promised that the measures would be "socially just".
"Today, the challenges we face are very large," he said.
But a source in a meeting between Prime Minister George Papandreou and labour union leaders on Thursday said Athens was being asked to abolish the 13th and 14th salaries — known as holiday bonuses — in the public sector. Greeks have their annual salaries divided into 14 instead of 12 monthly instalments.

Bills release Anderson after one year
The Buffalo Bills have parted ways with defensive lineman Mark Anderson just one year after he signed a four-year deal with the team.
MOCK DRAFTSCan't wait until your league's draft day? FOXSports.com has you covered. Test your fantasy football knowledge and strategies with a free and easy fantasy football mock draft.
Touted as a high-profile signing after a 10-sack performance with New England in 2011, Anderson agreed to a 4-year, $21 million contract with Buffalo in 2012.
But he battled injuries for the Bills during his lone season, which led to his release. He made just five appearances, registering 12 tackles and one sack as the Buffalo defense allowed 435 points, most in the AFC East. The Bills finished 6-10 and have since retooled their defense. Anderson wasn't in the long-term plans.
Buffalo's offseason acquisitions of pass rushers Jerry Hughes and Manny Lawson made Anderson expendable, as the team looks to build from the line out.
A fifth-round pick of Chicago in 2006, Anderson spent parts of five seasons with the Bears and another with Houston before moving to New England. He becomes the latest castoff on a team that has gone through a near top-to-bottom overhaul this offseason. New coach Doug Marrone has brought in an entirely new staff including the Bills' third defensive coordinator in as many years, Mike Pettine.
The defense saw numerous veterans either cut (linebacker Nick Barnett, safety George Wilson and cornerback Terrence McGee) or retire (defensive end Chris Kelsay and linebacker Shawne Merriman).
The Bills also moved offensive tackle Chris Hairston, 24, to the physically unable to perform list. A fourth-round pick in 2011, Hairston has battled ankle and foot injuries over his career but played in 25 games, starting 15 contests.
Hairston was expected to compete with Erik Pears for the starting right tackle position.

The purpose of the present study was to describe health literacy and its association with substance use among young men.
The present study was part of the Cohort Study on Substance Use Risk Factors that included 11,930 Swiss males participating in initial screening from August 2010 to July 2011. Self-completed questionnaires covered use of three substances and three components of health literacy.
Roughly 22 % reported having searched the Internet for health information and 16 % for information on substances over the past 12 months. At-risk and not at-risk users of alcohol (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 2.50 and 1.46), tobacco (AOR = 2.51 and 1.79) and cannabis (AOR = 4.86 and 3.53) searched for information about substances significantly more often via the Internet than abstainers. Furthermore, at-risk users reported better knowledge of risks associated with substance use and a marginally better ability to understand health information than abstainers.
Substance users appear to be more informed and knowledgeable about the risks of substance use than non-users. Consequently, interventions that focus only on information provision may be of limited benefit for preventing substance use.

Since Mondovino's release in France last year, Rosenthal has been inundated with requests from French producers to represent their wines. But the reaction among the wine world's establishment has been less favorable; the film has already provoked knee-jerk trashings from American wine writersin a bewildering assessment, the Times' wine critic last week accused Nossiter's documentary of ignoring paradoxes that it in fact goes out of its way to emphasize. In defense of the film, Rosenthal says, "Jonathan obviously has a point of view, but this isn't a gross polemic. I don't know that there are good and bad guys but people with opposite approaches. My point of view is that there's a uniformity invading the wine world, and it's making wine less interesting. A lot of the responsibility lies with the consumer. They can't be passive in the face of a marketing onslaught. If people sit back and accept what comes their way, whether in commerce or politics, they can't lament the ultimate result."

Wushu, billiards, futsal in 2013 Palaro roster
WUSHU, billiards and futsal will be played as demonstration sports for the first time in this year's Palarong Pambansa.
Education Secretary Armin Luistro said the three events were added alongside the regular events played in last year's Palarong Pambansa to promote them as sports where Filipinos have a greater chance of excelling internationally.
The billiards competition will be opened for high school boys and the football-variant futsal for elementary girls.
Wushu will be disputed by high school students in both divisions.
The regular Palaro events include archery, arnis, athletics, badminton, basketball, gymnastics, softball, swimming, taekwondo, chess, football, lawn tennis, table tennis, sepak takraw and boxing.
Luistro and Negros Oriental Gov. Roel Degamo signed last Friday the memorandum of understanding which laid down the duties and responsibilities of both parties in holding the Palarong Pambansa.
The annual national sports meet, which gathers the best elementary and high school athletes nationwide, will be held at Don Mariano Perdices Memorial Stadium in Dumaguete City from April 21 to 27.
"The Palaro has many aspects, not just the games themselves. But what we in DepEd stress every Palaro is, you may forget everything else but not the athletes. Let's make sure that the star in the Palaro is the athletes," Luistro said.

On December 1, 2012, dr. P.W. Kamphuisen was appointed professor in Internal Medicine, especially Vascular Medicine, at the University Medical Center Groningen. Kamphuisen focuses his research on three different areas, i.e., risk factors and treatment of thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, efficacy and side effects of new antithrombotic drugs, and the relation between blood coagulation and malignancy.
Pieter Willem Kamphuisen (Rotterdam, 1965) studied Medicine at the University of Leiden. Afterwards he did his PhD research and defended his thesis entitled " High levels of factor VIII as risk factor of venous thrombosis" at the University of Leiden in 2000. S ubsequently he became a specialist in Internal Medicine, in particular Vascular Medicine. He conducted his specialization at the Rijnstate Ziekenhuis in Arnhem and the UMC St. Radboud in Nijmegen. Kamphuisen worked as research and clinical fellow at the University of Perugia in Italy, and the University of Birmingham in the UK. After working as a staff member at the AMC, in 2011 Kamphuisen was appointed as Head of the Department of Vascular Medicine at the UMCG.

Re: barker vs evert and austin question....
Recently on YouTube someone has fortunately posted the 1976 French Open semi, Ruzici v Barker and also the Wimbeldon semi Barker v Stove. In both, particuarly the Ruzici match, you can see the forehand. Raw talent I think.
I know Baltacha beat Schiavone but Bally isnt really in the same class as Barker. Bally talks a good game but she doesnt execute. She is a good top 65 player but hasnt got the weapons to get beyond second rounds in GS. Barker had weapons. We havent had a GB player for so long to get into 3rd and 4th Rounds at GS tournaments. This may well change with Watson and Robson (who has just beaten two good players to reach the 1st round in China).

I waited one year too long to install this on my car. Arrived 3 days after I placed the order, to my front door. After watching a video of how to install, I grabbed the tools needed, and within 90 minutes I was done. So easy to install! Test for leaks then took for a ride and man what a difference. The sound goes great with 6spd. paddle shifters. Performance increase of Horsepower is always nice! Kit came complete with all hardware and instructions. I feel worth it in the long run for the purchase price. Good quality product. Keep up the good work K&N !!!!!!!

The fact that they work for a lifetime and I never need to buy another filter is an added bonus. There are power gains to be had by using these filters. Will you feel it in the seat of your pants? No, but my mileage has gone up every car I have.

The filter did everything I needed it to. Very easy to instal and have not have any issues with it since I installed it. It seemed to have provided my vehicle with a little more horse power. Will continue to get my business.

I've always trusted my cars to K&N, and the new 2015 Hyundai Genesis Ultimate 3.8L V6 is no exception. This vehicle, like my exiting Hyundai Azera Ultimate 3.8 has better, smoother more responsive acceleration, faster throttle response and overall sporty feel, it gets better gas mileage in all three driving modes by 1 to 3 mpg tested over a 1500 miles average without and 1500 miles average with the K&N air filter. As always, I replace my filter every 100,000 miles, and my 2008 Azera is on its second filter. I do clean them regularly for best performance and recondition them every 25,000 miles, in spite of the manufacturers recommendation for 50,000 mile intervals. Using this in combination with a full synthetic old - Penzoil Platinum Ultra being my personal favorite, I get an average of 30 mpg city and 35 mpg highway with 33 mpg combined, some 5 mpg better than without either 'upgrade'. The K&N filter pays for itself not only in four filter changes (or lack thereof) it pays for itself daily, ongoing, by saving gas mileage. As always, Your mileage will vary, but I can assure you, you WILL get at least a 3-5% boost in mileage.

I had a very frustrating experience with our local [brand] dealer. I had requested a new air filter at 30K miles they said they blow it out so you don't need a new one. At 41K miles I asked for a new air filter because my mileage had dropped nearly 3 mpg. I was patted on the head and told not to worry about it. When I came home, I popped the hood and saw that the air filter cover was still dusty and knew that nobody had even pulled the cover. I took the cover off and found lots of bird feathers from a bird I hit up on the Delta in early February, Harlequin butterfly wings from April and dust bunnies big enough to easily lift off by hand. I should have taken a picture, but instead, I pulled the air filter, blew it out with my compressor and reinstalled it. Then I did what I should have done when I first bought the car, I came in and ordered a K & N air filter it arrived in two days and I installed it immediately. I could hear the big difference the car could breath again! I had had a K & N air filter in my old '93 Honda, so I was well aware of the improved performance. My mileage is back up to where it ought to be, and having lost confidence in the dealership, I take my car to another shop! Thank you for your great products!

Delivery was fast even with standard shipping. Install was a little tricky but not because of the filter but because of my vehicle (2011 Audi Q5 3.2 V6 Quattro). The screws did not align exact with the housing but nothing a pair of pliers didn't fix by bending them just ever so slightly. Other than that, I love the filter. I am unsure if this added any more horsepower but I didn't notice a little more pep and get up and go after the install. Fuel economy seems the same but I hadn't been recording the mileage. In conclusion, I am very satisfied. P.S. MAKE AN AIR INTAKE FOR MY VEHICLE AND I'LL BUY IT!!

This cold air intake was fantastic! The power increase was istantly observed at the first slip of the clutch. The engine note was throatier and power response was much more immediate. I did not notice any real difference in fuel economy.
The only down side was that my wife did not like the whooshing noise from the air intake whenever the clutch was engaged and releived-engine induced air pressure from the inlet.

I made a really great decision when I purchased this K & N cold air intake for my 2010 Toyota Tacoma. I am very happy with the performance boost, and the increased gas mileage. Couldn't be more pleased!

I have been driving my 2013 Ford Transit Connect for a couple of months. I have purchased KN filters for all of my previous vehicles. The filter in my Vuck ( best description of a van and a truck) has increaincreased the power in my Vuck. ..and only slightly in the mileage category. I find it important to be able to pass someone on a 2 lane and this filter did it all. If you have a Vuck I strongly recommend it.

The K&N intake was easy to install and also looks good under the hood. I really can't tell about the 8 horsepower gain, but it does sound a lot better when you put your foot down and that alone makes it worth the install. 8 extra horsepower is always a good thing.

Understanding carbon partitioning in cereal seeds is of critical importance to develop cereal crops with enhanced starch yields for food security and for producing specified end-products high in amylose, β-glucan, or fructan, such as functional foods or oils for biofuel applications. Waxy mutants of cereals have a high content of amylopectin and have been well characterized. However, the allocation of carbon to other components, such as β-glucan and oils, and the regulation of the altered carbon distribution to amylopectin in a waxy mutant are poorly understood. In this study, we used a rice mutant, GM077, with a low content of amylose to gain molecular insight into how a deficiency of amylose affects carbon allocation to other end products and to amylopectin. We used carbohydrate analysis, subtractive cDNA libraries, and qPCR to identify candidate genes potentially responsible for the changes in carbon allocation in GM077 seeds.
Carbohydrate analysis indicated that the content of amylose in GM077 seeds was significantly reduced, while that of amylopectin significantly rose as compared to the wild type BP034. The content of glucose, sucrose, total starch, cell-wall polysaccharides and oil were only slightly affected in the mutant as compared to the wild type. Suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) experiments generated 116 unigenes in the mutant on the wild-type background. Among the 116 unigenes, three, AGP, ISA1 and SUSIBA2-like, were found to be directly involved in amylopectin synthesis, indicating their possible roles in redirecting carbon flux from amylose to amylopectin. A bioinformatics analysis of the putative SUSIBA2-like binding elements in the promoter regions of the upregulated genes indicated that the SUSIBA2-like transcription factor may be instrumental in promoting the carbon reallocation from amylose to amylopectin.
Analyses of carbohydrate and oil fractions and gene expression profiling on a global scale in the rice waxy mutant GM077 revealed several candidate genes implicated in the carbon reallocation response to an amylose deficiency, including genes encoding AGPase and SUSIBA2-like. We believe that AGP and SUSIBA2 are two promising targets for classical breeding and/or transgenic plant improvement to control the carbon flux between starch and other components in cereal seeds.

Rare Rhino Pregnancy Gives Hope to Species
CINCINNATI and LOS ANGELES and SUMATRA, Indonesia, Feb. 17 /PRNewswire/ — Conservationists across the world are celebrating a pregnancy in one of the world's most endangered species, the Sumatran Rhino. The pregnancy of female Ratu, born in Indonesia, and male Andalas, the first of only three Sumatran rhinos born in captivity in more than 112 years, is giving hope to international rhino biologists. The breeding occurred at Indonesia's Sumatran Rhino Sanctuary (SRS) in Way Kambas National Park following months of gradual introduction by scent, sound, sight and physical proximity. The calf is expected to be born in May 2011.
This is no ordinary pregnancy. Ratu wandered into a village just outside Way Kambas National Park in 2006; Andalas was born at the Cincinnati Zoo in 2001, raised at the Los Angeles Zoo and then transferred to SRS in 2007. With help from Dr. Robin Radcliffe of the International Rhino Foundation's (IRF) Rhino Conservation Medicine Program, the then-5 1/2-year-old Andalas journeyed more than 10,000 miles on a 63-hour trip by plane, truck and ferry.
"A combination of sound science, international collaboration among government, non-profits, and zoos, as well as timing and personal chemistry, has led to this groundbreaking event," said Dr. Susie Ellis, IRF executive director. "Sumatran rhino numbers have decreased by more than 50 percent over the last 15 years in the wild."
The Sumatran rhino population is estimated at approximately 200 individuals in the wild and 10 currently in captivity worldwide. Ratu's pregnancy represents the hope for a future generation.
Dr. Terri Roth, director of Cincinnati Zoo's Center for Conservation and Research of Endangered Wildlife (CREW) and vice president for IRF's Asia programs, has used her extensive training in reproductive biology to produce three Sumatran rhinos beginning with Andalas in 2001.
"Sumatran rhinos are very solitary by nature and aggressive towards one another except when a female is in estrus," said Dr. Roth. "Through science, we can determine when the female is ready to ovulate so she is paired with a male at the right time and fighting is minimized while the likelihood of conception is optimized. It is wonderful to see the science developed at CREW help our Indonesian colleagues achieve success in Sumatra."

Ubuntu Developer Summits Shifting Online, Increasing Frequency 49
from the also-called-irc dept.
Didn't you know that Ubuntu, formerly a beloved Linux
distribution, became a PR-Machine some time ago.
In other words, Mr Shuttleworth, so long and thanks for all the fish.
Actually, I would say thanks for spending a lot of money to create and promote a Linux distribution that even non-linux geeks have heard about. He has done more to increase exposure of Linux than most anyone. It's unfortunate that Canonical isn't doing well since I think most people would say that building a sustainable model to keep Linux in the spotlight is a good thing for the community as a whole. Guess what?... servers and bandwidth cost money. Advertising and putting on events cost money. When was the last time you contributed to your local LUG to keep it afloat?
In case of injury notify your superior immediately. He'll kiss it and make it better.

It is important to take time each week to examine your dog's ears for signs of irritation, infection, dirt and parasites. These at-home ear exams don't take long, and can help you identify minor issues before they become larger, more painful problems. Simply look inside each ear for signs or redness, discharge, dirt, or waxy buildup. If you notice any of the following, your dog likely has an ear infection and should be seen by a veterinarian:
Owners should never attempt to correct an ear infection on their own. They can be extremely painful for dogs, and infections can lead to permanent damage and hearing loss if not treated properly.
If your dog does not appear to have an ear infection, it is safe to clean his ears.
It is best to clean a dog's ears in the bathroom, a mud room, or another room of your home where you won't mind a potential mess. Most dogs don't enjoy having their ears cleaned, which means spills are inevitable.
The best tools to use for cleaning your dog's ears are a good pair of hemostats and some cotton balls. Do not use Q-tips on a dog's ears, as they can push debris further inside the ear canal, or even damage the ear. Hemostats can be purchased at drug stores, pharmacies, or from your veterinarian. You can purchase an ear cleaning solution specifically created for pets, or you can mix one up at home.
A highly recommended home ear cleaning solution is 1 part white vinegar to 1 part of water. This solution works wonders on dogs that have chronic yeast or bacterial infections in their ears. Another ear cleaning solution you can mix at home is 1 part hydrogen peroxide to 1 part water. Never use alcohol to clean your dog's ears. Alcohol can dry out the sensitive skin inside the ears and cause allergic reactions.
Start your dog's ear cleaning with a good belly rub and soothing words. This will relax your dog and let him know that ear cleaning times are not so bad. Place a small amount of the solution in your dog's ears, and then massage the base of the ears. At this point your dog will want to do a head shake. Let the dog give a good shake which will help loosen debris inside the ear. Lock down a cotton ball in the hemostat and gently use it to wipe out the inside of the ear. Repeat as often as needed, working from the inside out with a fresh cotton ball, until no more wax is seen on the cotton ball. Finish up the ear cleaning session with a treat and extra words of encouragement to help soothe your dog's nerves.
It can be easy to become obsessed with ear care, but you do not want to clean your dog's ears too frequently. Over-cleaning can actually upset the natural flora balance of the ears, leading to infections. Once a week home exams should be sufficient to help maintain clean and healthy ears.

if they get some more good fighters they might be able to compete with the ufc down the road.i like what he said about white.
EliteXC: Street Certified takes place February 16 from the University of Miami's Bank United Center. The main card will be broadcast Live on Showtime.
Here are some key notes from the conference call, promoting the fight:
if they get some more good fighters they might be able to compete with the ufc down the road.i like what he said about white.
just to elaborate, elitexc needs to get better fighters. they need to stop picking up bum fighters that the ufc dropped… like nick diaz. and his disrespectful brother, nate, has the balls to go on a UFC PPV to mouth how the UFC needs to treat his brother better… and this is after he won the $100K contract + another $100K promo with xyience.
thats a different roy than me i think nick diaz is a tough fighter, i do think him and his bother are loud mouths and i like to see them lose but nick will fight anyone and puts on a good show.
Yeah, Nick is a loudmouth but he is always a gamer. I actually think he is a good aquisition for them, he's got some creds. Not to get anymore off track with this but I think it was bullshit that they took away his win over Gomi in pride becuase he smoked some bud. In my opinion at least.
i agree i didn't help him win
Elite just needs more depth on their rosters. They have a few headliners in each division, now they just have to add status to their up and comming talent. Thats one thing the UFC has is depth that they have established over many years of showcasing their fighters.
Definetely, the UFC is years ahead of any other organization as far as growing there own talent. Actually since the UFC is really the first organization nobody really new about the talent of the fighters untill the UFC recognized it. I don't believe the UFC offers there up and comers a lot of money for fights so later on down the road after Elite gets some bigger draws maybe they can outbuy some of the talent and teach them lesson.
u know, i think the UFC should pay low for those upcoming dudes. if they can't bring in the fans and aren't known, why should they get paid like $60K a fight??? it makes sense that lidell gets paid like 1/2 million ($250K to win & 250K bonus), but would it make sense for like some no name dude to get even half of that? if that were the case, i would be training right now.
i agree with you derek accept for the guys there paying 6000 a fight,they train for 4 months eat right have trainers it all costs money and after taxes these guys end up losing money every fight.they should get at least 15000 a fight to be in the ufc and thats still not a alot.

Kobe Bryant says he's a Laker for life

Speaking to Derek Fisher on Jim Rome's ESPN show, Kobe Bryant said that he plans on staying with the Lakers until the end of his career.
"I'm definitely not playing for another team. It's hard to say 100 percent, but 99.999 percent sure that I'll be finishing out my career with the Los Angeles Lakers. I'm happy about that." (Hat tip to Ball Don't Lie on Yahoo! Sports)

No, you're not dreaming, though this short film may make it seem that way.
At first glace, this video looks like someone with mad computer skills animated what it would look like for various objects to be slowly eroded so you could see their insides. That in and of itself is pretty amazing to watch.
The thing is, though, the video is real, and it's exactly what it looks like.
Austrian photographer Laurin Dopfner created it by shaving off half a millimeter at a time from these objects, taking 650 pictures along the way. He then edited them together to get this mesmerizing result.

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Kerala has decided to market its coir products under the brand name `Kerala Coir: Golden Yarn of God's Own Country,' to differentiate it from products manufactured in other parts of India and outside in the domestic and foreign markets.
Announcing this at a press conference here on Wednesday, Minister for Coir G. Sudhakaran said the Government had drawn up a plan of action to increase Kerala's annual export earnings from coir products to Rs.1,500 crore and sales in Indian market to Rs.3,000 crore over the next five years. Common branding for the State's coir products was part of the initiatives to boost the demand. It would be accompanied by a common quality control system. The logo of the branded Kerala coir would be released by Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan at a function here on Friday, Mr. Sudhakaran said.
Kerala's coir products were much superior in quality, when compared to those manufactured in other States and countries such as Sri Lanka. This was primarily due to the practice of retting (keeping the fibre immersed in waterbodies for several weeks before using it for making coir) being followed here. Retting lends the fibre strength, durability and superior texture. However, in the absence of a marketing strategy to drive home this quality advantage, it had to compete on par with low quality products from elsewhere.

Latest Soot Stories
Viewed as a potential target in the global effort to reduce climate change, atmospheric black carbon particles absorb significantly less sunlight than scientists predicted, raising new questions about the impact of black carbon on atmospheric warming, an international team of researchers, including climate chemists from Boston College.
For the first time, Lawrence Livermore researchers and international collaborators have peered into the makeup of complex airborne particulate matter so small that it can be transported into human lungs -- usually without a trace.
"For the first time we can actually see the structure of individual aerosol particles floating in air, their 'native habitat'," said DESY scientist Henry Chapman from the Center for Free-Electron Laser Science (CFEL) in Hamburg.
Laser probes microscopic components of air pollution
The first real-world, head-to-head comparison of "improved cookstoves" (ICs) and traditional mud stoves has found that some ICs may at times emit more of the worrisome "black carbon," or soot, particles that are linked to serious health and environmental concerns than traditional mud stoves or open-cook fires.
People who cycle through London and other major cities have higher levels of black carbon in their airway cells.
A new study of dust-like particles of soot in the air — now emerging as the second most important — but previously overlooked — factor in global warming provides fresh evidence that reducing soot emissions from diesel engines and other sources could slow melting of sea ice in the Arctic faster and more economically than any other quick fix.
In some cases, soot – the fine, black carbon silt that is released from stoves, cars and manufacturing plants – can pack more of a climatic punch than greenhouse gases.
Soot from the burning of fossil fuels and solid biofuels contributes far more to global warming than has been thought, according to a new Stanford study.
Action Also Needed to Cut Pollution Caused by Burning Dirtiest Heating Oils ALBANY, N.Y., June 23 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) praised the New York State Assembly for passing legislation today to dramatically reduce sulfur levels in the commonly used #2 heating oil sold in the state.

Walkathon focuses on national hunger
Food Bank hosts first free walk; donations accepted
The Food Bank of Corpus Christi will hold its first Help End Hunger Walkathon today as a part of a national effort to recognize the problem of hunger.
"Everybody has an emergency at one time or another in their life where they need to make choices," said Sylvia De La Cerda, assistant director of the Food Bank of Corpus Christi.
Helping feed those in need has been the goal of the nonprofit organization since its inception in 1982.
Cerda said the homeless or those with a low income are not the only ones to feel the effects of hunger.
A middle class family suddenly faced with mounting hospital bills or a young mother in need of food for her baby can benefit from assistance, she said.
About 10,000 Coastal Bend residents in 11 counties benefit from the donations made to the Food Bank of Corpus Christi every day. Metro Ministries, the Women's Shelter of South Texas and the Good Samaritan are among the 152 agencies that receive food donations from the organization.
"Every dollar we get in donations we can turn into $14 in food items," Cerda said.
The organization is one of two food banks in the state that can also distribute perishable food items like eggs, milk, meats and frozen foods donated by H-E-B grocery stores. After the free walk, participants can visit a health fair with educational booths in the First United Methodist Church gymnasium.

Challenge: To deter the use of lighters at pop music concerts.
Fire hazards are a major concern for a national safety awareness program for kids and adults. Many members of the audience use lighters at concerts to show appreciation during performances or when the crowd wants an encore. In order to deter kids and teens from wanting to use lighters at concerts (a fire hazard), this national safety awareness program decided to set up a booth at major concerts. They needed a promotional item that would help spread their message and reduce the fire hazards at each concert.
Solution: Distribute keyring flashlights to concert attendees.
The safety awareness program purchased thousands of promotional key ring lights and sold them from their booth at major concerts. The lights were imprinted with the band's name on the barrel of the light, increasing the odds that fans would want to purchase one.
Result: Concert attendees were pleased with the free giveaway, and a threatening fire hazard was eliminated.
Fans and concert attendees purchased huge amounts of they key ring lights, reducing the usage of lighters (unnecessary fire hazards). Fans were pleased with the item which was an inexpensive souvenir. The safety organization was pleased with the impact of the promotion and is coordinating similar campaigns for other safety issues.
