It'd be a shame if the Carolina Chocolate Drops were heard as merely an academic undertaking rather than the damn good pickers, fiddlers, jug blowers, and singers they actually are. The band consists of three African American musicians trained in Piedmont traditions and schooled in styles most commonly ascribed to whites: old-time country, Appalachian folk, bluegrass, jug- and string-band. Their albums constitute a kind of reclamation project, deepening out understanding of African American contributions to rural music even as they reset their decades-old sounds in a thoroughly modern context.
On their second full-length, Genuine Negro Jig, the Chocolate Drops mix old tunes like "Your Baby Ain't Sweet Like Mine" and "Why Don't You Do Right?" with their own originals and covers of songs by R&B artist Blu Cantrell and Tom Waits. What is remarkable about the album is how well these disparate songs fit together, as if there are no distinctions between them—not in time, not in subject, not in style. The band's repertoire is broad without losing specificity: Genuine Negro Jig covers a lot of territory, from the reeling banjo jig "Don't Get Trouble in Your Mind" to the stirring British folk tune "Reynadine," delivered a cappella by Rhiannon Giddens. It's a remarkable song, not simply because Giddens is translating a European song to the mountains of America but primarily because she is such a strong singer, with an expressive quality that's reinforced by her restraint.
Giddens also sings a time-stopping version of "Why Don't You Do Right?" and a righteously angry cover of Cantrell's "Hit Em Up Style," two very different songs that show her emotional and interpretive range. And on the high lonesome "Snowden's Jig," with her fellow Chocolate Drops stomping out a beat and playing the bones behind her, Giddens bends her fiddle notes dramatically, pulling the melody apart like taffy. The three band members trade off instruments constantly and take turns in the spotlight: Justin Robinson swings on "Trouble in Your Mind" and delivers an ominous original called "Kissin' & Cussin'." Despite its title, the song almost sounds like a murder ballad, with its ominous autoharp strums, thundering bass drum, and Robinson's starkly menacing lyrics: "Well, tell me pretty baby, do you think you're too sweet to die? 'Cause we kiss and we cuss and we carry on."
That bleak tone is offset by raucous versions of "Your Baby Ain't Sweet Like Mine" and especially "Cornbread and Butterbeans," which is perfectly suited to Don Flemons' laidback vocals. While so many other songs acknowledge the financial conflicts that drive a wedge between men and women—again, a historical theme that sounds perfectly and sadly suited to the present—Flemons advocates rural life as the basis for enduring happiness: "Cornbread and butterbeans, and you across the table / eatin' them beans and makin' love as long as I am able."
Never mind that those words were written years and years ago: They echo the sentiments of so many current country songs about small-town life and downhome values. Approaching the past like it's not even past, the Chocolate Drops have created an album of feistily complex, yet endearingly soulful songs that have ages of history behind them and a bright future as well.

I've seen this group appear on several PBS programs and on various NPR programs – they are unique and excellent. My only dissent from this review is that I'd give it the album the full five stars
Thank goodness there are utterly unique bands out there like the Chocolate Drops that are contributing something of lasting value to America's traditional music scene. I'm also glad there are roots music festivals and an Americana music scene that support such acts and give them exposure to a wide audience and a way to earn a decent living.
Rhiannon has an amazing voice its it nice this album includes cuts that let her show off her considerable vocal prowess. This is one of those bands that sounds as good or better live than they do on their recordings and has broader appeal than one might expect. They are a delight to see perform live and got a standing ovation one time at the Grand Ole Opry. The CCD's music is kind of like the H1N1 virus as once you've been exposed it's infectious! (lol)
PS – I think this thread should be turned into an album give-away contest for "Genuine Nego Jig" for anyone who posts an intelligent comment! (lol)
If someone hopped in my truck and picked up "Genuine Negro Jig" right underneath my Hank Williams Jr., I feel like I would be obliged to explain something… what, I am not sure.
Anyone care to explain to me exactly what they see as unique about the Carolina Chocolate Drops' music?
Jim, I'd go a step further and say it's hardly unique for black musicians to play string music, jug music or anything of the like. The Chocolate Drops themselves openly credit and acknowledge older black string players they have studied under and played with, and they will gladly provide a long list of black bands and musicians they've listened to, learned from and admire.
It is, however, a rare choice these days for younger black musicians to play old-time string music, something CCD band members also bring up and like to discuss. They're not the only ones, of course, but it's less than common. They have never claimed the music they make to be unique. I do think they are creating something enjoyable and entertaining that's steeped in a traditional music, and it has their handprint on it.
I meant "unique" more from a marketplace perspective due to the much higher profile the CCD's have in the Americana realm than any other black artists treading similar territory. The success of the Old Crow Medicine Show has motivated many copycat white musicians to jump on the old-timey, jug band bandwagon. In comparison how many high profile (relatively speaking) black groups are revitalizing old tunes from the ex-slave negro population that lived in the Piedmont Mountains in the early 1900's? Hmm…
I could see how members of the "Pine Cone Piedmont Council of Traditional Music" might not find the CCD's so unique, but here in Los Angeles believe me they are! (lol)
Link: http://www.pinecone.org/
Jon: They managed to make Hit 'Em Up Style almost not suck. That's unique.
I'm guessing that Jon had a pretty solid idea as to what they were referring to. It just wouldnt have been any fun to acknowledge that and let it slide, though.
If the band were Caucasian, it would not have received the 4 1/2 stars. There, how's that for not beating around the bush? However, that is not to say they are not good.
As the writer of this piece, I couldn't disagree more with that comment. I debated between a 4-star rating and a 4 1/2-star rating as I edited my rough draft, and I chose the latter because I thought — and still think — it better reflects the quality of music and the quality of my experience and engagement with that music.
I stand by that rating even now: unlike the majority of the albums I encounter every year, which can be assessed and then shelved without another lingering thought, this one has not left my desk even after I filed the review. It sits here, demanding that I play it, enjoy it, and engage with it, even at the neglect of current assignments. I'm listening to it right now, in fact.

Shahrukh Khan also danced with the show's co-host Cyrus Barucha on 'Chammak Challo' (Ra.One) and with Priyanka Chopra on a Don number.
Other than Shahrukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra, Aamir Khan, Farhan Akhtar, Ayushmann Khurrana, Sridevi, Malaika Arora Khan, Shahid Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra were also spotted at the event.
The obvious friendship between Shahrukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra was really surprising. But we really appreciate the fact that they both came together for a social cause despite of all the gossips.
May be, that is what 'Being Professional' means!!

There are some performers with whom I actually associate a body of work. I only associate Jessica Simpson with her body. Maybe it's because her career has been so incredibly lacklustre, or maybe because her body is so incredibly hot. Either way, I am guilty of completely objectifying Jessica Simpson, and I love it.
And from the looks of it, she loves it too.

Ben Barnes talks Narnia in New Interview
Movie news website Rama's Screen had the opportunity to interview Ben Barnes about his new movie, By the Gun. During the interview, he was asked about the Narnia films. Here's what he said:
Rama's SCREEN: I don't know if you know this but they're working on adapting the next Narnia movie, "The Silver Chair," so are you going to be a part of that?
Ben Barnes: "I have no idea. I haven't spoken to anyone about it. I know in "Silver Chair" casting is much older, I think he's in his seventies by that point. I know they have brilliant people working prosthetics but I don't know if that's even possible but I haven't spoken to anyone about it, I don't know what phase that's at."
Rama's SCREEN: So did you think "Dawn Treader" was a good exit, if it was an exit, for your character, Prince Caspian?
Ben Barnes: "'Dawn Treader' is actually my favorite one actually, of the three. It was the book that I was most obsessed with when I was younger, I loved the parables within it, the little stories, the little messages in them. And I think it's fun, it's very colorful. Ya, that was a good worthy adaptation of that book."

If you've been reading my column regularly…and I know you have, then you probably know about my left eye and the dramatic history behind it. If you're not familiar with it, let me bring you up to speed.
In sixth grade, I was hit in my eye with a rock while sitting on the playground. Let me interrupt this column to deliver a highly important public service announcement: Never, ever, ever let your kids, grandkids, neighbor kids, nieces, nephews, anyone you know for that matter throw rocks! It sounds like just another cliché, but you really can put someone's eye out.
So back to the tale, after being hit, I was legally blind in my left eye for 15 years and had numerous eye surgeries. Three years ago I had a cornea transplant, lens implant, and artificial iris implant. Following this surgery, I could actually see…well, for a little while that is. I soon developed scar tissue on my retina and yet another surgery was needed. After this one, I could actually see… well for a little while longer that is. And this leads us to today.
My cornea is going through degeneration. As my doctor put it, "This kinda means it's given all it can give." He told me in a normal eye you can usually get 10 years out of a cornea transplant. My eye is far from normal, so I got two and a half years before the degeneration started. Luckily, everything else looked fine, so I could wait to have my second cornea transplant.
This was three months ago. Since then, the vision has been getting worse pretty quickly, so I've decided to go ahead with it. My surgery will be July 10. This will be the ninth surgery for my left eye.
If you read my last column, you know that the very minor start of diabetic retinopathy was found in my right eye. This is bad enough to hear with perfectly fine eyes, but when you're left eye is in the condition mine's in, it's even scarier. I have been trying so very hard to keep my sugar from going high, but diabetes is not playing fairly. Today though has been a pretty good day sugar wise. I've had lows, but I have not gone above 160 all day. I'm certainly hoping these not high readings will continue as they will be needed for the healing following my upcoming surgery. You never know what this disease will throw at you though

Truth Or Dare: Why Would Huawei Buy Nokia?
It came as a surprise when the Vice-president of the Chinese smartphone company Huawei, Richard Yu, said yesterday that they were "open-minded" on buying the prestigious Finnish Nokia.
These remarks, published on the Financial Times, had an astonishing effect as Nokia's shares on the stock market increased 11% quite quickly on the next few hours. As showed in the following graph:
Not a day had passed when a response came from Huawei's headquarters in China. Claiming that the company has "no plans" to purchase Nokia whatsoever.
These chain of events is yet to be judged as either an attempt or a slip up. What is clear now is that Nokia is not on its best moment and using Windows Phone operating system, as opposed to the extended Android, didn't seem to help them very much.
It is not a secret that Huawei is an ambitious company with an ambitious plan to establish in the USA and European markets. A company like Nokia would help them gain client's trust in both areas, making them compete in the major league with Samsung or even Apple. Providing benefits for both parts.
So, the outcome of this rumours has to be seen. But, most times in business, where there is smoke there is fire.

I just came across a new typing game that approaches the challenge a little differently. The idea is that you are in a car chase and you need to type in the directions to your driver. It becomes a little bit like those choose-your-own-adventure books as you have 4 choices for lines at any given time and the story goes to different places depending on which line you type. Certainly not a game for everyone, but worth checking out if you are looking for something a little different.

Keller to Return This WeekendSubmitted by pete on February 1, 2007 - 17:10
In an interview for the Springfield Falcons' website, FalconsAHL.com, Springfield Head Coach Steve Stirling has announced that forward Justin Keller will return this weekend after missing over a month with a high ankle sprain. Before his injury, Keller had been playing well on a line with fellow Lightning prospects Blair Jones and Marek Kvapil and the young left winger's return could offer a shot in the arm to the team's anemic offensive attack. In 29 game this season Keller has 9 goals and 17 points with 10 penalty minutes and a -7 rating.

First the trade…
Lightning have traded Andy Delmore and Andre Deveaux to Atlanta in exchange for Stephen Baby and Kyle Wanvig. All four players will remain in the minors for now, Delmore and Deveaux to Chicago while Baby and Wanvig will be assigned to Springfield.
Of note, apparently Delmore may more than likely stay in the minors as Philadelphia is ready to swipe him off waivers if he is put on recall, so there is a good chance that Delmore won't come back to bite the Lightning as a member of the Thrashers this season.

CHL Game Night: 1/31Submitted by chad on February 1, 2007 - 09:47
Dane Crowley continued his point-per-game pace since being traded to Everett when he earned an assist in the Silvertips' 4-1 win over Tri-City Wednesday night. Crowley now has 8 points in 8 games with Everett. He was plus-2 Wednesday night, which raises his plus/minus ranking with the 'Tips to plus-14. Everett, who won their 40th game last night, remained the CHL's No.1 ranked team in the rankings released Wednesday. They have been in the top-10 for all 18 weeks of the season.
Vladimir Mihalik was scoreless and minus-1 as Prince George won again on the road, beating Seattle 3-2 in overtime.
In the OHL, the All-Star Game was held Wednesday night and East beat West 13-9. No Lightning prospects were involved in the game. Hunter Tremblay, an undrafted fifth-year player for Barrie, was named player of the game for scoring 3 goals and 2 assists.
Finding Jan Zapletal: Plus Bonus Obscure Prospect Updates!Submitted by pete on January 31, 2007 - 23:36
There was a comment left a few weeks back in comments regarding the whereabouts of defenseman Jan Zapletal who seemingly disappeared off the face of the earth after spending most of last season with the Vsetin organization in the Czech Republic. Well, Zapletal is playing in the Czech 2.liga (third tier) for VSKA Technika Brno where he has 1 goal and 4 points in 19 games with 28 penalty minutes and an even rating.
Defenseman Marek Posmyk, whom you might remember was acquired along with Mike Johnson in the Darcy Tucker trade many moons ago, is still playing in the Extraliaga for Ceske Budejovice (now going by the name HC Mountfield) where he has 8 goals and 12 points in 36 games with 67 penalty minutes and a -10 rating. Incidentally, looking through the Extraliga leading scorers, I can't believe Robert Reichel is still alive and playing hockey.
In Switzerland, forward Eero Somervuori is still making bank for Ambri-Piotta of the NLA where he is third on his team in scoring behind former Falcons star J.G. Trudel and former Thrasher Hnat Domenechelli. In 40 games Somervuori has 13 goals and 30 points with 16 penalty minutes.
Oh by the way, Sascha Goc is leading his team in scoring in the German DEL. In 30 games with the Hannover Scorpions the oldest of the Goc boys has 16 goals and 38 points with 87 penalty minutes and a +6 rating. I'm half expecting an e-mail from the shadowy Mr. X telling us we might want to put Goc back up on the prospects page too.

2 out of 2 people found this instruction helpful
Yes, I agree that the actual replacement of the pump was an easy task on this whirlpool washing machine, however, unlike other posters, I had no access through the bottom of the machine. My machine has a solid pan on the bottom. It has a large hole in the center - I think to access the transmission, but no access where the pump is. So, I had to dismantle the entire enclosure, first the back (about 6 screws, a couple of electrical connections, etc.), then remove the rest of the enclosure to reveal the guts of the machine. I also had to disconnect a small vacuum tube attached to the tub, and remove the control console on top along with the back. It was pretty straight forward, took about two hours to dismantle. Then, the actual removal of the pump was as easy as others have described here - two spring clips and a hose clamp and I had it in my hand. I ordered the new part, which came very quickly - 2 days I think. Then I took another two hours to re-assemble the machine. It works - yeah!Symptoms - water leak on the floor, it was actually intermittent for a time, so I procrastinated. Then when I actually did the work, I could see the rust trail and follow it to the leaky pump. The pump was actually leaking through the center, where the drive shaft from the motor goes. There is probably a seal between the impeller and the central drive slot that gives out after a while. New pump in - machine back together - no leaks.

Cedar Falls Datacenter experiencing Connectivity issues
Posted by Mike S on 13 December 2013 08:45 AM
*****UPDATE 12:25pm CST*****
As we were posting the last update it would appear our service was restored. Again, no official update has been posted by our Data Center but at this time our servers are responding without issue. However, since the issue has not been officially stated as resolved there may still be issues down the road as they work on the problem. For now, everything should be working fine.
*****UPDATE 12:25pm CST*****
Though our Data Center has not updated their status page we do have an update regarding this issue. We have been making calls to every contact we have trying to find a legitimate update and we were able to get one. The issue has been determined to be with the Up Link provider, CenturyLink, and their lines outside of the building. CenturyLink is on site and working on the issue but as of right now there is no specific ETA. We will update this post when we know more.
Our Data Center in Cedar Falls, IA is experiencing a critical loss of network connectivity. We have been told by the Data Center that all updates regarding this outage can be found here - http://ltstatus.com/?p=19175 .
This outage will effect all of our Windows Shared Hosting customers (those on the web1 and webA clusters) as well as a few other individual customers. If you have any questions about this outage please send a ticket to email@example.com youThe PowerSurge Team

We spoke yesterday on the phone and via email and you stated that our server would be back online yesterday. That obviously did not happen. I am not going to get into all the we have been down for blah blah blah, we are losing customer, money all of that because I know you know this. As a business owner you have to be aware of these issues already.
I am no non-sense kind of guy. I don't care about all of that other stuff right now, I just want our server back online and I want you to be realistic with me. At the very worst, if you do not believe that our services will be restored can we get our backup drives out of the box? We purchased these and drop shipped them to you, they are our equipment.
Bottom line, I need this server online today. Can you do this or not.

We are not adding this as an effort to quell the frustration that is brought on by this situation. We are not trying to make it seem like the situation is ok because we are providing proof that VolumeDrive is misleading us every step in this horrible situation. We just want everyone to know and understand what it is we are dealing with. We will continue to pursue VolumeDrive until this matter is resolved.
For those of you that have had service restored, we have started the migration away from Burst.net and Volumdrive.com. We will be using a new colocation provider, HiVelocity.com. HiVelocity is a well respected data center with a great reputation in this industry. So far we have been extremely impressed by their service and products. You can read more about their data center here - https://hivelocity.net/datacenter/.
We began the migration of our corporate sites first. There were a few bumps in the migration but everything is up and running now. We did this first so all lines of communication would remain open during the customer account migration. We started the migration by taking remote backups of all accounts and are now transferring live accounts to new servers. You may notice, periodically, a little bit of lag during this migration, but at no time will you have an interruption of service.
It is going to be a long uphill battle for Nine Dot Systems to restore faith in the customers that have had to deal with this unimaginable problem but I will insure you of this, we are not going anywhere. We will not rest until everything is back online.

Volume Drive Outage
Posted by Mike S on 27 August 2013 11:38 AM
Some of you are already aware of this situation but it would seem as though we have been caught in the middle of a fight between a Data Center, burst.net, and one of their colocation providers - volumedrive.com.
There is no simple explanation here. We have colocated servers with Volumedrive and it appears that on Thursday 08/22/2013 they moved to a new data center with zero advanced notice to any of their customers. It also seems that they had to make a rush move because they owed a very large amount of money to their data center. According to what we know, Volumedrive's new data center was not ready but they decided to move there anyway and because of this it is taking a very long time for them to bring up customer equipment. This move caused all of our corporate sites and email to go down as well as a few customer servers. In their move a small amount of their hardware was left at burst.net. We contacted burst.net and determined that they had the majority of our colocated equipment and they have brought those servers back online, including our corporate server.
Unfortunately, one server is still in the possession of volumedrive.com and they have not been able to restore services to their client base as of this moment. The last update volumedrive.com provided via their twitter page stated their network was ready and they were going to start powering up servers soon. At this point, Volumedrive.com is refusing to give any specific ETA on when our equipment will be back online. We have spoken with them several times on the phone and via email since then and we are just not seeing them make enough progress.
At this point we are willing to setup a new account for you so you can at least get your email up and running again. If you have a backup of your site you can also restore this to this new account. Please remember that you will need to recreate your email accounts with the proper passwords. If you are unsure what your passwords were just use new ones and be sure to change the password in your email application.
We will continue to work with Volumedrive.com in an effort to restore services back to the way they were and recover all customer data. We know this situation is untenable and we will address it once service is back to 100% for all those affected.
Thank you

Gov't wants 8% share from mining
popular .
MANILA, Philippines—The government wants at least 8-percent to as much as 10-percent share of gross revenues from the mining industry, against the previously floated figure of 7 percent, Environment Secretary Ramon Paje said on Friday.
A bill on the proposed revenue-sharing scheme is being prepared and will be ready before the new Congress convenes in late July, he said.
The enactment of such a law would enable the government to again accept applications for mining permits for various forms of mining, he said.
Paje said that while the revenue-share collection should be a fixed portion of gross revenues, it may be collected in various schedules—paid upfront, partially or at the end of a business cycle.
The environment chief earlier noted that under existing laws, about 11 large-scale companies out of about 31 medium- and large-scale miners of metallic minerals pay a 5-percent royalty on top of the 2-percent excise tax.
Paje said the Mining Industry Coordination Council (MICC) is also anticipating the finalization of a list of so-called "no-go zones" in the country where mining will not be allowed.
"There are 78 ecotourism sites as defined by the Department of Tourism, but these are in addition to the existing protected areas which number at about 249," he said.
Chaired by Paje and Finance Secretary Cesar Purisima, the MICC is a joint committee of the economic development cluster and the climate change cluster of the Cabinet.
Last December, Malacañang said the MICC had narrowed down the options to a percentage of gross margin or to a percentage of gross revenue, where the income tax paid is deducted after computing the government share.

The plan was approved on the condition that it be revised
This year's outlay is less than last year's Call to increase allocation for development projects
GULBARGA: The Opposition Congress on Thursday forced the Ruling Janata Dal (Secular)-Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) combine in the Gulbarga Zilla Panchayat to concede to their demand to upscale the outlay of the annual action plan of the Gulbarga Zilla Panchayat for 2007-08 and increase allocation for development activities under the Special Component Plan (SCP), Tribal Sub Plan (TSP) and for minorities development.
After a stormy two-hour discussion on the action plan for 2007-08 presented at a meeting here on Thursday, president of the zilla panchayat Yellappa Karikundi and Chief Executive Officer P.C. Jaffer promised Congress party members that before submitting the proposals to the State Government, the budget of the annual action plan would be increased. Opposition leader Subash Rathod came down heavily on the zilla panchayat for not increasing the outlay of the plan which has been pegged down at Rs. 235.59 crore, which was less than the current year's plan outlay of Rs. 242.36 crore.
The explanation provided by officials and the ruling party members, including Nagireddy Patil and Gurushant Pattedar was that the plan outlay appeared to be reduced as projects worth Rs. 33.39 crore and payment of salaries under different heads had been transferred to non-plan head . Mr. Rathod said the allocation made to different departments had been lowered .
The meeting witnessed heated exchange of words between Mr. Rathod and Janata Dal (S) member Gurushant Pattedar on the issue.
Later, the annual action plan was approved unanimously on the condition that the zilla panchayat would revise the plan size and increase allocation for development activities.
Rural employment had been given top priority with an allocation of Rs. 64.51 lakh, followed by education with Rs. 53.41 lakhs and watershed with (Rs. 20.78 lakhs) .

TIRUCHI: The National Research Centre for Banana (NRCB) in Tiruchi was working on developing a genetically modified banana that would be resistant to diseases, according to director M.M.Mustafa.
The five-year project, funded by the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), has been under way at the NRCB for over the past one-and-a-half years.
A team of researchers led by S.Uma, principal scientist, NRCB, was working on developing the transgenic banana that would be resistant to the sigatoka leaf spot disease among the Grand Naine ('nei vazhai' in Tamil). The ICAR has extended funding to the tune of Rs.1.30 crore for the project.
The NRCB is simultaneously working on developing a genetically modified 'rasthali' variety of banana that would be resistant to the wilt disease, Dr.Uma said.
Meanwhile, the NRCB has been sanctioned a project for developing a molecular diagnostic tool kit for detection of wilt disease causing pathogens in banana suckers and soil by farmers. The ICAR has sanctioned Rs.75 lakhs for the three-year project, Dr.Mustafa said. The research team working on the project would be led by R.Thangavel, senior scientist, NRCB.
The NRCB has also bagged a project to study the role of vesicular arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungi in developing disease and drought resistance in banana and increasing yield through absorption of soil nutrients. The ICAR has sanctioned Rs.8 lakh for the three year project.
The Centre was also working on two other international projects funded by Bioversity, France. One of this was on screening banana varieties for drought tolerance.
The centre has got Rs.27 lakh for the project. The other project was for regeneration of important banana accessions so that they were conserved and protected from genetic erosion. Under the project taken up with a funding of Rs.57 lakh, the NRCB would take up in-vitro conservation of about 200 accessions, Dr.Mustafa said.

This guide to networking by Misner, the founder and chairman of BNI (Business Network International), is an invaluable roadmap for businesspeople seeking to develop or fine-tune a necessary and often overlooked skill. Misner and Donovan's title stems from a study that spawned the "six degrees of separation" theory, which actually revealed that only 29% of the population is connected to this extent. The authors say that despite its proven necessity, networking is scarcely taught in business schools, and their self-study course aims to fill the void with a self-assessment test and 52 weeks of assignments to beef up networking skills. Accessible and smartly structured chapters include action items and helpful tidbits like worksheets, assessments and questions to help readers schedule their networking from day to day and over the course of a career, from setting preliminary goals to becoming a "Networking Mentor." While readers might not be able to make it into the exclusive ranks of the highly connected 29%, they will assuredly derive new tactics, tools and motivation.

Smart Grid Would Boost Renewables
A long-anticipated U.S. "smart grid" could be a significant part of making renewable energy sources such as wind and solar widely available, said Jon Wellinghoff, chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission said on Wednesday.
The United States' top power regulator told Reuters that demand response, the foundation of the smart grid concept of a power system that can instantly respond to changes in supply and prices, could account for 20 percent of U.S. electricity, he said.
The market considers contracts that reduce demand as a power source, jokingly dubbed a "negawatt".
Cutting demand by just a few minutes could allow the grid to inexpensively incorporate renewable sources like wind and solar that would otherwise require backup from plants that stayed idle a majority of the time.
"I don't think we need shadow generation," said Wellinghoff, referring to the backup power stations that considerably raise the cost of a power supplies based on alternative energy.
Although alternative energy is currently such a small part of the country's power generation that a cloudy afternoon is nearly immaterial, California has set a goal of obtaining one-third of its electricity from renewables by 2020, and Hawaii aims for 40 percent by 2030. At those levels, intermittency could become an issue.
Appliances and intelligent power meters connected to the smart grid could also work to shift power by smoothing out demand over the course of a day by conducting certain tasks at new times, such as running the dishwasher in middle of the night. They can also help respond to abrupt changes in supply, such as turning up the thermostats in a neighborhood's refrigerators as clouds pass over a solar power plant.
Although large portions of the U.S., including the southeast and a majority of the southwest, do not yet have a market necessary for such a system, roughly three-quarters of the country's electricity load could do it — making the goal of 20 percent achievable.
"I think there is potential to get there by 2020," Wellinghoff said.
"You've got EnerNOC, you've got Comverge, you've got 10 other companies that are out there now doing this on a very robust basis, because they understand that they could make money at it."
Such a system would also dramatically reduce the need for mid-sized natural gas plants, which turn on quickly during times of peak demand.
However, Wellinghoff has a different vision for the role of natural gas, which has been discovered in vast reserves in recent years.
"We've got more natural gas in this country than we know what to do with," he said.
"It may make a lot of sense to start shutting down coal plants and using gas for base load," he said.
"The coal industry has said for many years that they have 250 years of coal. That's not true."
Tiny, high-efficient 'fuel cell' generators could provide power and hot water for a home or a building, he added.
"Combinations of stationary storage, mobile storage like vehicles, demand response and distributed generation like solar PV (photovoltaic)… like co-generation, generation from waste heat recovery and other micro-generation on a distributed basis, could all be part of the mix," Wellinghoff said.
Locating small supplies near demand would also help when transmission lines to bring renewable power from sunny deserts and windy plains to big cities are not available.
Wellinghoff said he believed existing law would allow his agency to approve where to install and how to best distribute the costs of any new cross-state transmission lines. However, legal challenges would likely delay efforts to push through such lines.
He said he intends to wait for Congress to pave the way with the climate change bills currently under consideration.
"It's going to be an incremental process," of building power lines, he told Reuters.
"I think in five years from the time that we have additional authority, we can move electrons from remote locations [such as Montana and Wyoming]"
Southwest states adjacent to major markets such as southern California and Las Vegas could become operational in as little as three years from the time authority was expanded, Wellinghoff said.

Coast Guard:
Observations on the Fiscal Year 2008 Budget, Performance, Reorganization, and Related Challenges
GAO-07-489T: Published: Apr 18, 2007. Publicly Released: Apr 18, 2007.

The U. S. Coast Guard is a multimission agency responsible for maritime safety, security, and stewardship. It performs these missions, relating to homeland security and non-homeland security in U.S. ports and inland waterways, along the coasts, and on international waters. The President's budget request, including the request for the Coast Guard, was transmitted to Congress on February 5, 2007. This testimony, which is based on current and past GAO work, synthesizes the results of this work as it pertains to the following: budget requests and performance goals, organizational changes and related management initiatives, current acquisition efforts and challenges, and challenges related to performing traditional legacy missions.
The Coast Guard's fiscal year 2008 budget request totals $8.7 billion, an increase of 3 percent over the enacted budget for fiscal year 2007 and a slowing of the agency's budget increases over the past 3 fiscal years. The Coast Guard expects to meet its performance goals in 6 of 11 mission areas in fiscal year 2006, down from 8 in 2005. Trends indicate increased homeland security activities have not prevented meeting non-homeland security goals. Two new reorganization efforts are under way. One creates a single command for all specialized deployable units, such as those for responding to pollution or terrorist incidents. However, experience with an effort to reorganize field units suggests there may be challenges in such matters as merging different operating approaches and addressing resource issues. The other effort merges the Coast Guard's various acquisition management efforts under a single Chief Acquisition Officer. The reorganization of acquisition management is in part a response to past troubled acquisition efforts. This change in the acquisition structure is too new to assess. Current major acquisitions include Deepwater for cutters and aircraft, the Rescue 21 communication system, and the National Automatic Identification System for vessel tracking. Deepwater and Rescue 21 have had schedule delays and performance reductions in the past, but the Coast Guard has been taking actions to improve oversight. Installation of equipment for the first phase of the National Automatic Identification System is under way, but the Coast Guard is still determining which types of vessels will have to participate. All three programs have also accumulated sizeable carryover balances of unspent moneys from previous years. Competing funding priorities have placed aging polar icebreakers and aids-to-navigation assets at risk. Many aids-to-navigation vessels are near the end of their service lives. The Coast Guard is exploring alternatives for replacement or extending their service. Similarly, high maintenance costs prompted the Coast Guard to take one of two Antarctic icebreakers out of service, increasing reliance on the remaining one.

You may want to subscribe to my RSS feed, Twitter, Facebook, or get the password for the protected (more personal) posts. This warning will self-destruct.
It isn't quite spring here yet, but it's getting close. The light is changing. The snow has been mostly washed away by the recent rains. I'm hoping by next week the light will be even higher in the sky and full-on spring fever will have sprung, just in time for this month's Sideshow theme.
The sad news is that Fran Varian can't make it up from Durham this time, but rest assured! She will be here to perform her kickass work another time. Meanwhile, you can learn more about Lyme disease and help heal Fran over at her website, and you can buy some of her books if you were dying to hear her work (and I know you were).
While Fran is a fan of the Peggy Lee version, I am really into Elvis lately, so here's a little something to get you in the mood …
Join us at Sideshow on March 8th with readers Arianne Benford, Beth Greenfield, Genne Murphy, and LOVE the Poet.

HOUSTON An angry ex-boyfriend caused a significant amount of damage early Friday after he rammed his truck into his ex-girlfriend s new beau s vehicle, according to Harris County Sheriff s deputies.
Deputies said the man arrived at his ex-girlfriend s home on Pine Meadow at Plum Meadow around midnight and got into an argument with her new boyfriend.
The ex then got into his truck and rammed it into the new boyfriend s truck, causing it to crash through the front living room.
There are children who live in the home, and thankfully, no one was in the front when the truck burst through the wall.
The ex boyfriend fled the scene, but deputies know his identity and are searching for him.
