'Where's the respect?'
Sport (or, in the United States, sports) is all forms of competitive physical activity which, through casual or organised participation, aim to use, maintain or improve physical ability and provide entertainment to participants. Hundreds of sports exist, from those requiring only two participants, through to those with hundreds of simultaneous participants, either in teams or competing as individuals.
Sport is generally recognised as activities which are based in physical athleticism or physical dexterity, with the largest major competitions such as the Olympic Games admitting only sports meeting this definition, and other organisations such as the Council of Europe using definitions precluding activities without a physical element from classification as sports.

Maci Bookout Teases Her "New Venture"! What Is It? (PHOTO)
Maci Bookout has been quite a tease on Twitter this week.
After the Teen Mom star said that she was headed off to NYC to "work in the city" yesterday, she posted a vague tweet about her "big day" today!
She tweeted, "all politics aside... today is such a big day for me! #getit #careermoves #nyc" before posting a collage of four photos of her "new venture."
In the pictures above, it looks like Maci is in a new apartment, but could she really be packing up her bags and moving to the Big Apple? Rumors have been swirling about her MTV spin-off show, but the concrete jungle is a big change of pace from her Tennessee roots!
However, Maci is excited to let us all know about what she's up to. Along with the pictures, she said, "cant wait for you guys to know what im doing.... first day on my new venture."
Well, we can't wait, either! What do you think Maci is up to? Will she really move to NYC? Weigh in below!

Originally written on MyTeamRivals.com | Last updated 8/5/12
Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson returned to New York last night in the Broadway debut of his one-man show "Undisputed Truth", running through August 12 at the Longacre Theater. The 46-year old Tyson, originally from the rough streets of Brooklyn, opened the show with a welcome and a comical promise. "Welcome to my living room. You will all leave with two ears." The audience, which included celebrities such as New York Yankee stars Derek Jeter, C.C. Sabathia and Curtis Granderson, Donald Trump, Spike Lee, who directed this Broadway version of Tyson's autobiography that premiered at the MGM Grand in April, Ahmad Rashad, Jake LaMotta and Tony Danza, were guests in the champion's 'living room' for the following two hours. With images displayed on the large screen behind him, Tyson took us through the photo album of his life. The soft-spoken and reflective Tyson shared various memories and stories, starting with his mother whom he admitted he did not remember much about beyond her...

As far as I could tell she has normal poops before.

Although she doesn't like frutis and juices except for bananas. Or would upping her CLO help?
By constipation I mean -hard balls in her diaper after a day of nothing, she's whyney all day long but that's probably due to being sick. How can I make her drink more?
Also, when can I start enzymes? which ones and how strong? The problem is that except for the bananas, everything is cooked.
She is turning 1 tomorrow.
Would culturelle be appropriate at this age.
Since she just quit nursing, should I get the Natren Life Start thing?
I assume she gets enough acidophilus from yogurt.
I'm worried about her nutrition. She lost a ton of weight. She was almost ebf until 8 days ago so now that she went cold turkey with bf, I'm really worried. I try to give her a lot of butter with her meat and veggies. How many egg yolks would provide enough cholesterol? She eats 1-2 a day.
Please help!!!

Ripe pear works really well, if you can get her to take some of that in some yogurt or something. Or I would get some Bio-k and give that to her. Store bought yogurt actually has a low amount of acidophilus, not enough really to do anything particularly if it's yogurt that is sweetened.
Blueberries are also good for constipation. Personally I would really really try to get her nursing again.

2014 was a successful year. It finished with a robust fourth quarter, reflecting significantly higher production and lower costs. One of Teranga's key objectives is to invest in organic growth initiatives to increase production and mine life. Our existing mill and infrastructure, together with our large land package, which we believe has significant exploration upside, gives us organic growth opportunities that most companies just do not have today.

Hola Chica!
Looking for the perfect guy? Doesn't exist, but I'm a pretty freakin fun guy, love to laugh and have a good time. Single dad ( meaning they live with me full time) don't be frightened, they're amazing kids and pretty self sustaining. ;) I'm looking for someone fun and loving to laugh with and experience life in new ways. I've never been skydiving, up for a tandem? It's been awhile since I've dated so if like to take it slow. Had a bad ordeal previous as I'm sure many of you have, not looking to move in or get married right away. I need a friend really, someone I can trust and confide in that I happen to share a bed with ;) I don't care about your past or financial situation as long as your an honest and loving person who is not racist or biased in any way. Goofballs are preferred.
Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Playing cards , Playing sports , Political interests , Video games , Watching sports
Basketball, Football, Other types of exercise, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I have Dogs
Her name is Chica, she is a beautiful blonde, short haired chihuahua.
Some other viewpoint
Been to Catalina once and would love to go again. I am a desert rat at heart though so I'm content here in az. I think it's the most beautiful place on earth and I can't be somewhere with no cacti or palm trees for very long. California too!
Love movies, all types. Playing and listening to music, all types. Being outside in the desert doing anything. My record player. Saturday mornings. The smile that follows a wake up kiss. Playing with my dog.
I love to play piano and guitar, have a day dream about writing music for movies. Love to watch movies and dine out. (Typical I know)
I'm not a big reader, but ironically I am trying to write a science fiction novel! Physics are a hobby of mine and the book I'm working on centers around that. When I do read, I won't shy away from a good sci Fi, or John Grisham.

A high resolution radiation hybrid map of bovine chromosome 14 identifies scaffold rearrangement in the latest bovine assembly

BMC Genomics 2007, 8:254 doi:10.1186/1471-2164-8-254Published: 26 July 2007
Radiation hybrid (RH) maps are considered to be a tool of choice for fine mapping closely linked loci, considering that the resolution of linkage maps is determined by the number of informative meiosis and recombination events which may require very large mapping populations. Accurately defining the marker order on chromosomes is crucial for correct identification of quantitative trait loci (QTL), haplotype map construction and refinement of candidate gene searches.
A 12 k Radiation hybrid map of bovine chromosome 14 was constructed using 843 single nucleotide polymorphism markers. The resulting map was aligned with the latest version of the bovine assembly (Btau_3.1) as well as other previously published RH maps. The resulting map identified distinct regions on Bovine chromosome 14 where discrepancies between this RH map and the bovine assembly occur. A major region of discrepancy was found near the centromere involving the arrangement and order of the scaffolds from the assembly. The map further confirms previously published conserved synteny blocks with human chromosome 8. As well, it identifies an extra breakpoint and conserved synteny block previously undetected due to lower marker density. This conserved synteny block is in a region where markers between the RH map presented here and the latest sequence assembly are in very good agreement.
The increase of publicly available markers shifts the rate limiting step from marker discovery to the correct identification of their order for further use by the research community. This high resolution map of bovine chromosome 14 will facilitate identification of regions in the sequence assembly where additional information is required to resolve marker ordering.

Customer Reviews of Imation Apollo Expert M300 1 TB External Hard Drive - USB 3.0 - Silver - 1 Pack
I won't recommend it7/27/2013
I used this external hard drive for 2 months. When I used it to back up relatively small sets of data from both a Vista and an XP machine, it seemed to work fine. However, when I decided to copy to it a set of ~700 files, total size 6 G (one year of family pictures) it was giving messages like I/O Error 0x8007045D. At this point, if I pressed my ear to it, I could hear a rhythmic clicking pattern from the drive. That's on a vista machine. On a Windows XP machine, when I tried the same, it just froze the Explorer, no error messages, with the same rhythmic clicking sound. A lot of files did get copied though, and I can open them OK. I am only guessing that I was unlucky enough to get a drive with some hidden defect, such as for copying small files it works fine, but for large jobs likely to freeze.

ABSTRACT: Satellite microwave scatterometers are the principal source of global synoptic-scale ocean vector wind (OVW) measurements for a number of scientific and operational oceanic wind applications. However, for extreme wind events such as tropical cyclones, their performance is significantly degraded. This paper presents a novel OVW retrieval algorithm for tropical cyclones which improves the accuracy of scatterometer based ocean surface winds when compared to low-flying aircraft with in-situ and remotely sensed observations. Unlike the traditional maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) wind vector retrieval technique, this new approach sequentially estimates scalar wind directions and wind speeds. A detailed description of the algorithm is provided along with results for ten QuikSCAT hurricane overpasses (from 2003–2008) to evaluate the performance of the new algorithm. Results are compared with independent surface wind analyses from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Hurricane Research Division's H*Wind surface analyses and with the corresponding SeaWinds Project's L2B-12.5 km OVW products. They demonstrate that the proposed algorithm extends the SeaWinds capability to retrieve wind speeds beyond the current range of approximately 35 m/s (minimal hurricane category-1) with improved wind direction accuracy, making this new approach a potential candidate for current and future conically scanning scatterometer wind retrieval algorithms.Remote Sensing 05/2014; 6(5):4133-4148.

Article: A Novel Ku-Band Radiometer/Scatterometer Approach for Improved Oceanic Wind Vector Measurements[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This paper presents a conceptual conical-scanning radiometer/scatterometer (RadScat) instrument design for the purpose of improving satellite ocean vector wind retrievals under rain-free conditions. This technique combines the wind vector signature in the passive linearly polarized ocean brightness temperatures with the anisotropic signature of multiazimuthal radar cross-sectional measurements to retrieve oceanic surface wind vectors. The performance of the RadScat is evaluated using a Monte Carlo simulation based on actual measurements from the SeaWinds scatterometer and the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer onboard the Advanced Earth Observing Satellite II.

ABSTRACT: The SeaWinds scatterometer, onboard the QuikSCAT satellite, infers global ocean vector winds (OVWs); however, for a number of reasons, these measurements in hurricanes are significantly degraded. This paper presents an improved hurricane OVW retrieval approach, known as Q-Winds, which is derived from combined SeaWinds active and passive measurements. In this technique, the effects of rain are implicitly included in a new geophysical model function, which relates oceanic brightness temperature and radar backscatter measurements (at the top of the atmosphere) to the surface wind vector under both clear sky and in the presence of light to moderate rain. This approach extends the useful wind speed measurement range for tropical cyclones beyond that exhibited by the standard SeaWinds Project Level-2B (L2B) 12.5-km wind vector algorithm. A description of the Q-Winds algorithm is given, and examples of OVW retrievals are presented for the Q-Winds and L2B 12.5-km algorithms for ten hurricane overpasses in 2003-2008. These data are also compared to independent surface wind vector estimates from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Hurricane Research Division's objective hurricane surface wind analysis technique known as H*Wind. These comparisons suggest that the Q-Winds OVW product agrees better with independently derived H^ Wind analysis winds than does the conventional L2B OVW product.IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing 08/2010; 48(7-48):2909 - 2923.

Conference Paper: An improved active/passive oceanic wind vector retrieval technique[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This paper describes the advantages of combining passive and active microwave remote sensing observations for the purpose of ocean wind vectors retrievals. Previous studies have shown that a linear combination of horizontal and vertical polarized brightness temperatures contains a robust wind direction signal. In this paper, we present results from an end-to-end simulation of ocean measurements from a Ku-band (13.4 GHz) active/passive conical scanning satellite instrument. For this simulation, realistic wind fields from the NOAA National Center for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) numerical weather model were used to produce simultaneous brightness temperatures and radar backscatter measurements. These measurements were processed using a maximum likelihood estimation technique to yield ocean wind vector retrievals that were compared to NCEP fields. Results demonstrate significant improvements over simulated measurements for an active (radar scatterometer) sensor.Microwave Radiometry and Remote Sensing of the Environment (MicroRad), 2010 11th Specialist Meeting on; 01/2010
Conference Paper: Improved hurricane active/passive simulated wind vector retrievals.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Microwave scatterometers are the standard for satellite ocean vector winds (OVW) measurements, and they provide the major source of global ocean surface winds observations for scientific and operational applications. A major challenge for Ku-band scatterometry missions is to provide reliable retrievals in the presence of precipitation, particularly in extreme ocean wind events that are usually associated with intense rain. This paper explores the advantages of combining dual frequency (C- and Ku-band) scatterometer measurements and passive microwave observations to improve high wind speed retrievals. For this study, a conceptual design proposed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory for a Dual Frequency Scatterometer (DFS) to fly onboard the future Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) GCOM-W2 mission with the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR) was adopted. A computer simulation that combines the DFS and AMSR measurements was used to develop an artificial neural network OVW retrieval algorithm. The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) numerical weather model of Hurricane Katrina (2005) was used as the nature run (surface truth), and simulated OVW retrievals demonstrate that this new technique offers a robust option to extend the useful wind speed measurements range beyond the current operating scatterometers for future satellite missions.IEEE International Geoscience & Remote Sensing Symposium, IGARSS 2010, July 25-30, 2010, Honolulu, Hawaii, USA, Proceedings; 01/2010
Conference Paper: Improved high wind speed retrievals using AMSR and the next generation NASA Dual Frequency Scatterometer[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Microwave scatterometer measurements are the standard for satellite ocean vector winds (OVW) measurements. Unfortunately, in extreme weather events, where high wind speeds are frequently associated with strong rain bands, precipitation can significantly degrade the OVW retrieval accuracy. This study addresses the feasibility of exploiting passive measurements to improve high wind speed retrievals for such extreme weather events. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) has developed a conceptual design for a Dual Frequency Scatterometer (DFS) proposed to fly onboard the future Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) GCOM-W2 mission with the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR). These two instruments will provide a complimentary dataset of simultaneous and coincident active/passive measurements, which can correct for rain effects and thereby improve the OVW retrievals. End-to-end computer simulations are performed using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) numerical weather model tuned to Hurricane Katrina (2005) for the 3D nature run (surface truth). Results show that the new OVW retrievals compare well to the nature run surface wind vectors and that this active/passive technique offers a robust option to extend the useful wind speed measurements range beyond the current operating scatterometers for future satellite missions.Microwave Radiometry and Remote Sensing of the Environment (MicroRad), 2010 11th Specialist Meeting on; 01/2010
Conference Paper: Simulated OVW retrievals in tropical cyclones for the next generation Dual Frequency Scatterometer[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential of the next generation Dual Frequency Scatterometer (DFS) proposed to fly onboard the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA)/GCOM-W2 future mission to measure surface ocean vector winds. An end-to-end simulation was performed to retrieve ocean vector winds in extreme weather conditions, where high winds are usually associated with high rain rates. Both C-and Ku-bands DFS active measurements were combined in the retrieval algorithm. The simultaneous observations of JAXA's Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR) were used to passively model both the atmospheric attenuation and rain volume backscatter to correct for rain effects and to further improve the retrievals range for tropical cyclones beyond that exhibited by the current operating scatterometers.OCEANS 2009, MTS/IEEE Biloxi - Marine Technology for Our Future: Global and Local Challenges; 11/2009

ABSTRACT: Over the last three decades, microwave remote sensing has played a significant role in ocean surface wind measurement, and several scatterometer missions have flown in space since early 1990�s. Although they have been extremely successful for measuring ocean surface winds with high accuracy for the vast majority of marine weather conditions, unfortunately, the conventional scatterometer cannot measure extreme winds condition such as hurricane. The SeaWinds scatterometer, onboard the QuikSCAT satellite is NASA�s only operating scatterometer at present. Like its predecessors, it measures global ocean vector winds; however, for a number of reasons, the quality of the measurements in hurricanes are significantly degraded. The most pressing issues are associated with the presence of precipitation and Ku-band saturation effects, especially in extreme wind speed regime such as tropical cyclones (hurricanes and typhoons). Under this dissertation, an improved hurricane ocean vector wind retrieval approach, named as Q-Winds, was developed using existing SeaWinds scatterometer data. This unique data processing algorithm uses combined SeaWinds active and passive measurements to extend the use of SeaWinds for tropical cyclones up to approximately 50 m/s (Hurricane Category-3). Results show that Q-Winds wind speeds are consistently superior to the standard SeaWinds Project Level 2B wind speeds for hurricane wind speed measurement, and also Q-Winds provides more reliable rain flagging algorithm for quality assurance purposes. By comparing to H*Wind, Q-Winds achieves ~9% of error, while L2B-12.5km exhibits wind speed saturation at ~30 m/s with error of ~31% for high wind speed (> 40 m/s).
Conference Paper: A Ku-Band Active/Passive Wind Vector Retrieval Over the Ocean[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This work investigates the design of an innovative conical scanning Ku-band (13.4 GHz) scatterometer/radiometer for measuring ocean vector winds. The sensor design is based upon actual measurements obtained by the SeaWinds scatterometer and the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR), which operated simultaneously on JAXA's Advanced Earth Observing Satellite-II (ADEOS-II) during 2003. This new design combines the conventional forward and aft-looking two-beam microwave scatterometer (SeaWinds) measurements with simultaneous linearly polarized passive microwave brightness temperatures. The unique aspect of this remote sensing technique is that it operates at a single microwave frequency, and it combines vertical and horizontal polarized microwave brightness temperatures with the scatterometer normalized cross sections to retrieve unambiguous ocean wind vectors. This technique has the potential to significantly improve the Ocean Vector Winds retrievals for future conical-scanning microwave scatterometers.Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2008.

Conference Paper: SeaWinds Hurricane Wind Retrievals and Comparisons with H*Wind Surface Winds Analyses[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This paper describes recent developments of an improved geophysical ocean wind vector retrieval algorithm that uses both active and passive measurements from QuikSCAT. This algorithm results in significant improvements in wind vector measurements in hurricanes and better rain-flagging of severely rain contaminated areas than does NASA's standard wind vector product (L2B). By using a combined active/passive approach, we are able to infer wind estimates in the presence of light to moderate rain using the SeaWinds scatterometer. Rain effects (attenuation and volume scattering) are determined passively and then used to correct the measured ocean sigma-0 at 12.5 km wind vector cell resolution. Wind retrievals are performed using an improved geophysical model function (GMF) tuned for extreme wind events These ocean vector wind retrievals, known as Q-Winds, are compared with surface winds products from the NOAA Hurricane Research Division's H*Wind Analysis System, which assimilates near-simultaneous measurements from in-situ and remote sensors, such as, the Stepped Frequency Microwave Radiometer (SFMR), GPS dropsondes, and flight-level inertial navigation winds. Comparisons to H*Wind are presented for Q-Winds and the SeaWinds Project's new L2B-12.5 km ocean vector winds products.Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2008. IGARSS 2008.

Conference Paper: Calibration/validation of the SeaWinds radiometer rain rate algorithm[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The SeaWinds scatterometer, which has been flown on both the QuikSCAT and ADEOS-II satellites was designed to remotely sense ocean surface wind vectors. Because ocean wind retrievals are occasionally contaminated by rain in the tropics and because there is no independent rain measurement on QuikSCAT, a SeaWinds rain-estimation method was developed and implemented. This technique utilizes the SeaWinds receiver noise to measure ocean radiometric brightness temperature (Tb) and then applies a statistical regression algorithm to estimate the integrated rain rate. This rain algorithm was originally "trained" with QuikSCAT SeaWinds Tb and near-simultaneous rain rate measurements from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Microwave Imager (TMI). In this study, the SeaWinds instrument on ADEOS-II and the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR), also onboard ADEOS-II, were used to refine the algorithm. This provided truly simultaneous and collocated measurements from the same platform and over the same swath, which was ideal for improving the SeaWinds rain algorithm. The improved algorithm can now be applied on QuikSCAT using the SeaWinds radiometric measurement.OCEANS, 2005. Proceedings of MTS/IEEE; 02/2005

ABSTRACT: Tropical viticulture is developed in low humidity areas, where irrigation water frequently has medium to high salinity. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the response to salinity of the rootstocks "Criolla Negra" and "Villanueva", either grown on their own roots or grafted. The plants were grown in 5 L pots filled with silica sand, and irrigated with solutions of NaCl + CaCl2 (1:2) adjusted to electrical conductivities (EC) of 0.75 (control), 2.25, 3.75, 5.25, and 6.75 dS m-1. The plant materials and saline levels were arranged in a factorial set of treatments in a complete randomized design, with five replications and two plants per plot. Salinity affected the vegetative growth starting at EC values from 2.25 to 3.75 dS m-1. Plant growth under high salinity was only 1/3 of its potential, with associated decreases in root length density, of 38 % in root specific length, of 64 % in shoot biomass, and of 58 % in root biomass. The root/shoot ratio increased as saline level was higher. "Criolla Negra", either grafted or on its own roots, was more affected at higher EC than "Villanueva", and survival of rootstocks on their own roots was higher than in grafted materials. Leaf chlorophyll and photosynthetic quantum yield decreased as the saline dose increased. "Villanueva" showed the highest proline content and averaged highest biomass and root lenght. The levels of K, Ca, Na and Cl tended to increased with saline levels. Graft growth was only 2/3 of ungrafted rootstocks. The plant physiology was affected at low values of EC (0.75 to 2.25 dS m-1) but vegetative growth was affected only at higher values of salinity (EC: 2.25 to 3.75 dS m-1).Revista fitotecnia mexicana publ. por la Sociedad Mexicana de Fitogenética 01/2011; 34(1):43-52. · 0.30 Impact Factor

Apple to celebrate Steve Jobs' birthday with release of new MacBookĀProsBundled packages of MacBook Pros reportedly being delivered to resellers and Apple Stores are set to be unwrapped for Steve Jobs' birthday, AppleInsider can confirm.
Jobs, Apple's co-founder and chief executive, turns 56 on February 24. And all signs from within the company suggest that it will use that day — a Thursday as opposed to the traditional Tuesday — to unveil the new notebooks, according to people familiar with the matter.
That's the same day previously reported by MacRumors as being 'reliably confirmed' as the expected ship date for the new models. It was previously presumed that this coming Thursday was chosen because it was the earliest possible date Apple could facilitate the much needed MacBook Pro refresh, but chatter from within the company now suggests the timing is intentional.
That date also harmonizes with an earlier report which stated Apple was accelerating its MacBook Pro update, originally expected in early March, for an earlier launch date in late February.
Apple has reportedly advised some of its partners that it may begin shipping sealed packages to stores ahead of a formal announcement, and that those partners are under strict warnings not to open or examine their contents under threat of having their licenses to sell the company's products revoked if they do.
Supplies of the company's high end notebooks have become greatly constrained in anticipation of the launch.
Last year, Apple noted that February 24 marked the 10 billionth song sale in iTunes, a key measure of success for a strategy closely linked to Jobs' efforts to revolutionize the sale distribution of music over the last decade in conjunction with the iPod. However, the company did not call public attention to the birthday of its co-founder and chief executive.
Apple's annual shareholder meetings have also coincided with or near Jobs' birthday, which resulted in shareholders once toasting the executive with the singing of the Happy Birthday anthem. That was done at the suggestion of an attendee, however, and was not led by company representatives themselves.
This year, Apple's shareholder meeting is scheduled for February 23, the day before Jobs' birthday and the expected release date of the new MacBook Pros. While Jobs has largely remained very private about his own history and personal details, including his heath, the company may wish to honor him given his reduced role at Apple during his existing medical leave.
Over the last decade, Jobs has battled pancreatic cancer, undergoing surgery, additional therapy in Switzerland, and finally a liver transplant, procedures that left him appearing physically frail even as he continued to revolutionize the markets for music, smartphones, mobile software, tablets and highly mobile notebooks.
Last week, Jobs met with President Obama among a group of Silicon Valley leaders, but his condition has also been the subject of reports that indicate he has returned to the Stanford Cancer Center, ostensibly for a new round of treatments.

How we could blow the energy boom
Editor's note: America's vast new surplus of natural gas could lead to greater prosperity and a cleaner environment, says one of our country's top cleantech private equity investors. But if we don't fix our decrepit, blackout-prone electric grid, we could wind up sitting in the dark, he warns. I first met Jeffrey Leonard nearly 10 years ago, when he was already one of the early cleantech thought leaders. When I read his most recent article for Washington Monthly magazine, I asked if I could include an excerpt. I think you'll find it a valuable read, whether for your own information, or as ammunition to convince others. A link to the full article is at the end. - Jesse Berst
By Jeffrey Leonard
For the first time in four decades, spanning the last eight presidents, America is poised to break free of its energy crisis. The country finds itself suddenly awash in domestic energy, especially new supplies of natural gas. The economic windfall is already enormous. Economists at Bank of America calculate that the boom contributes nearly $1 billion per day to the economy, equal to 2.2% of GDP.
The environmental windfall is also substantial. Relatively clean-burning natural gas is rapidly replacing coal as our primary source of electricity, leading to reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Gas-fired power plants are also more easily integrated with renewable energy sources such as wind or solar, giving that industry a boost. The potential benefits of the gas boom also include the promise of a manufacturing revival in the U.S. based on the comparative advantage of lower energy costs, and the opportunity for the country to overcome its chronic trade deficits. This "energy dividend" could be, in other words, the biggest game changer in global politics and economics in a generation.
But a better future is not assured
Yet this bright shiny future is hardly assured. There are many reasons to fear that we won't succeed in maintaining adequate supplies of economically available natural gas, or in putting enough of it to optimal use - generating electricity.
More fundamentally, in order to capitalize on today's energy dividend, we need to meet a second essential precondition: repairing, expanding and modernizing our overstrained electrical grid. It is an inefficient and increasingly blackout-prone tangle of 1950s technology. In its present dilapidated state it is... making us vulnerable to an array of threats that could dramatically impair the U.S. economy tomorrow - regardless of how much surplus energy we have in the ground.
We must fix our decrepit, vulnerable and long-neglected electrical grid. Today, the average substation transformer in the U.S. is 42 years old - two years older than its expected lifespan. Even without any major attacks or breakages, most of the equipment on the grid is already so antiquated that roughly 500,000 Americans lose electricity for at least two hours every single day. In many places, the local grid is in such bad shape that even a minor disruption - a single downed power line, for example - can create a domino effect well beyond the damaged area.
The key to a higher standard of living
If we are able to generate a large portion of our electricity using cheap natural gas and then distribute that electricity through efficient and cost saving smart grid technologies, today's children may well grow up to enjoy a higher standard of living than their parents. But that's a big "if," especially if we don't have even a basic plan for how gas and grid will work together.
The United States is at the cusp of what very well could be the biggest political and economic windfall in a generation. But to realize this windfall, we must ensure that natural gas is maximized as a source of energy generation, and we must commit to a modern regulatory structure that mobilizes major investments in a reliable, secure - and, yes, "smart" - grid. If too many priorities and hair-brained schemes divert our political resolve, we may find that we have blown the energy boom.
