Sun and wind could finally make electricity 'too cheap to meter'
Roger Kemp
9th February 2015Energy 'too cheap to meter? This time it could be true thanks to the fast rising proportion of zero marginal cost renewable power in our electricity system, writes Roger Kemp. But that has profound implications for how we pay for our electricity - indeed the entire electricity market and consumer pricing system must be radically rethought. more...
2015 will see nuclear dream fade as wind and solar soar
Paul Brown
30th December 2014Governments are still spending billions on nuclear research, writes Paul Brown - but 2015 looks like being an unhappy year for the industry as it continues to shrink while renewables grow, amid massive delays and cost over-runs. more...
All over the world, renewables are beating nuclear
David Elliott
18th December 2014As flagship nuclear projects run into long delays and huge cost overruns, solar and wind power are falling in price, writes David Elliott. Renewables already supply twice as much power as nuclear. It's just too bad the nuclear-fixated UK government hasn't noticed. more...
There's no place for nuclear in the 'Clean Power Plan'
Tim Judson / NIRS
28th November 2014The EPA's plan for 'clean power' are welcome, writes Tim Judson - except for its inclusion of nuclear, and economic distortions and serious omissions that favour the technology. In this open letter to EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy, he and co-signatories call on her to ditch the 'false and irrational assumptions' used to justify both new and existing nuclear power. more...
Community renewable energy in the UK needs co-ops!
Tammy Calvert / Energy4All
26th November 2014The UK's community energy sector was badly hit by the financial regulator's sudden decision this summer to disallow renewable energy co-operatives, writes Tammy Calvert. A consultation on the topic ends tomorrow, Friday - so get your views in quickly while you can! more...
The UK's farms can generate as much power as Hinkley C by 2020 - renewably!
Jonathon Porritt
26th November 2014A new report shows that the UK's farms can easily generate as much power as the proposed Hinkley C nuclear plant, writes Jonathan Porritt. Not only would it all be renewable, but if could all be in place by 2020. Here he offers some friendly - but strictly confidential - advice for Energy Secretary Ed Davey. more...
World Bank to focus on 'all forms of renewable energy'
John Vidal / the Guardian
25th November 2014The president of the World Bank has promised to back out of financing coal developments, and instead target its finance at 'every dimension of renewable energy' under a new climate-friendly strategy. more...
Walmart, Asda owners using their billions to attack rooftop solar
Mike Gaworecki / DeSmogBlog
20th November 2014The Walton family, owners of Walmart and Asda, project a 'public environmentalism', writes Mike Gaworecki. But their real agenda is to advance a monopolistic corporate economic model that is threatened by decentralised energy solutions like rooftop solar. The answer? Exterminate! more...
Seven breakthrough solar technologies - but will they work?
Zachary Davies Boren / Greenpeace Energy Desk
17th December 2014A bunch of innovations are taking place in the world of solar power, writes Zachary Davies Boren - and one or more of them could just propel the technology from providing just 1% of the world's electricity, to dominating the world's energy supply. Provided they work ... more...
China leads the world in green energy - despite US Senate Leader 'do nothing' claims
John Mathews and Hao Tan
18th November 2014The Leader of the US Senate says that under the China-US climate deal, China can 'do nothing at all for 16 years'. John Mathews and Hao Tan examine the claim - and find it's the very reverse of the truth. China is leading the world in greening its energy supply, and has committed to add a massive 1.3GW of renewable power capacity every week for 15 years. Now Mitch - beat that! more...
Britain's 'energy policy' - carried out by Tories, made by UKIP?
Kyla Mandel / DeSmog UK
17th November 2014As the governing conservative party lurches ever further to the right, writes Kyla Mandel, it feels like UKIP has already won the election - six months before it's even happened. Tory ministers are already executing UKIP policies, with their ignorant but implacable hatred of renewable energy in all its forms. more...
Reclaim the power! Democratic energy must replace corporate capture
18th November 2014Democratising energy would save thousands of lives a year in Britain alone - releasing us from the clutches of corporate utilities, and building an energy commons in which we are all owners and participants, no longer captive, exploited consumers. More than that, it would be a big step forward in saving the planet. more...

Wind turbine noise may be annoying - but it's not making you sick
Tyler Hamilton
25th November 2014A large-scale independent study by Health Canana finds no link between the noise from wind turbines and health, writes Tyler Hamilton. That's not to say wind turbines can't be annoying - but there's a sure way to deal with that: give locals a financial benefit from their operation. Has Britain's wind industry got something to learn? more...
Supergrid will build EU resilience and boost renewables
Paul Brown
9th September 2014The EU, nervous about disruption to gas supplies across an increasingly unstable Ukraine, is planning a European 'supergrid' linking all 28 member states to increase resilience, writes Paul Brown. The development will be a boon to renewable energy generation, and cut emissions from fossil fuels. more...
Putting community energy at the heart of our renewables revolution
Julia Groves
7th November 2014This is an exciting time for community energy, writes Julia Groves. New guidance will make it easier for local people to invest in local renewable power projects, while other opportunities are opening up for risk averse investors. And the more of us join in, the sooner we can displace the Big Six who dominate UK energy markets. more...
Solar power is getting cheaper quicker than the IPCC thought
Helle Abelvik-Lawson
4th November 2014The cost estimates for solar PV used by the IPCC in its latest report fail to take into account recent price falls for the technology, reports Helle Abelvik-Lawson, and exaggerate financing costs. The result is to understate the importance of PV in a low carbon future. more...
New wave generator brightens ocean power prospects
The Ecologist
27th October 2014A new wave power generator has moved closer to reality after successful testing in simulated marine conditions. An array of the 1.5MW 'Searaser' devices could be deployed on Britain's coast within a few years. more...
Seaweed problem could provide biofuel solution
Paul Brown
14th March 2015Biofuels are controversial because they are often produced from food crops or grown on farmland, writes Paul Brown, creating extra pressure on land and forests. But a common algae found in abundance around coastlines and clogging up beaches may be the answer.
Germany's green power surges ahead - at a price that's finally falling
Gert Brunekreeft
22nd October 2014Germany's transition to a renewable power system is on track, writes Gert Brunekreeft. But it's costing households €218 a year in surcharges, causing voter enthusiasm to wane. That may be about to change though. The surcharge is about to fall, while targets stay the same - a sign that renewable energy costs may be falling faster than expected. more...
The Burning Answer to our energy needs
Jonathon Porritt
29th October 2014Keith Barnham's new book reveals the giddying and glorious plethora of the solar technologies that lie at the heart of the all-renewable energy system that awaits us, writes Jonathan Porritt - making it 'one of the most exciting and genuinely hopeful books' that I've read in a long time'. more...
Keeping the lights on
Owen Paterson
16th October 2014Last night's speech on Britain's energy choices by former environment secretary Owen Paterson's caused widespread outrage long before it was delivered. But what exactly did he say on the night? Read on, and be surprised to discover that it makes excellent sense - in parts. more...
Hinkley C will cost Britain dear - if it's ever built
Keith Barnham
15th October 2014The UK Government promises that the Hinkley C 'EPR' nuclear reactor will lower electricity bills, but Keith Barnham shows that this is the very reverse of the truth. Our best hope is that it will never be built. Legal challenges aside, no sane investor will commit until one of the two EPR prototypes is working, which will be in 2016 at the earliest. more...
Renewables can supply 100% of world's power by 2050
Tim Radford
15th October 2014The first ever global life-cycle assessment of clean energy sources shows that a renewable system could supply the world's entire electricity needs by mid-century, writes Tim Radford. more...
IEA: Solar could be world's biggest power source by 2050
Mike G / DeSmogBlog
10th October 2014Solar power could be producing over a quarter of the world's electricity within 35 years, according to the International Energy Agency. But in the US, Congress's failure to extend solar tax credits is causing projects to be withdrawn.
Billionnaires against fossil fuels
Ruth Lumley / Trillion Fund
27th September 2014The movement to divest from fossil fuels is gaining strength, writes Ruth Lumley, with $50 billion of institutional investment behind it. This week's news that almost $1 billion of Rockefeller money is moving from fossil fuels to clean energy shows that the world is changing faster than most ever imagined. more...

Some of Colorado's top spots for wilderness recreation are at stake as the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) develops new management plans for the state's public lands.
I'm a morning person, but even I'll admit that sometimes it can take a minute or two for me to get going in the early hours. This was not the case one recent May morning in southern Nevada, where heatwave immersed my tent just a few quick minutes after the sun came over the horizon.
A new multi-state plan for the greater sage-grouse could include conservation measures to protect more than 50 million acres of Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land that provides critical habitat for the species. Secretary Sally Jewell announced the plan on May 28 in Cheyenne, Wyoming.
Three days after a pipeline spilled 105,000 gallons of crude oil in balmy Southern California, the Associated Press reported that "bad" weather was slowing cleanup effo
Scientists from around the country recently gathered in Farmington, New Mexico to discuss a massive methane hot spot over the Four Corners region of the Southwest United States.
It was just after 5:00 AM when we arrived at our destination in the remote sagebrush plains of northern Colorado. A chorus of deep, resonant "blooping" sounds grew louder as we walked into the darkness, and turned off our headlamps in order to avoid startling the finicky birds.
The last Congress was a mixed bag for conservation, but it ended with a big victory, as Congress protected over 1 million acres of public lands (thanks in large part to the members and supporters of Th
Lawmakers are bowing to special interest groups, attempting to forward the sale or transfer of public lands including wilderness areas, wildlife refuges and national forests to state and local governments.

Too extreme?
Anyway, what do you think? Did I go overboard on this extreme tip, or on any of the others? Maybe I need to rethink what I write!
17 comments:
- Jill said...
I responded to the article and you've inspired me to do a blog post on the toilet cloths thing.
On the others...I gave up shampoo about 2 or 3 years ago in favor of baking soda scrub and a vinegar rinse. My hair has never been better and it's cheap cheap cheap. I still have a few remnants of shampoo which I use to remove sweat and food grease stains from my laundry. Shampoo is built to break down oils and strip them so it works well.
- December 6, 2010 at 12:03 PM
- Pat said...
Thanks for the support, Jill! I'll keep an eye on your blog for your post. We need to unite here. :)
I tried using baking soda in my hair, but it didn't work very well. I have long hair and it was hard to work it through all of it. I do rinse with vinegar and that is the best hair rinse ever!
I have used shampoo in the laundry, too. It works very well.
- December 6, 2010 at 12:23 PM
- Stacie said...
I once used some hair conditioner that I didn't like as fabric softener for my laundry. It worked okay, but I wasn't over-the-top impressed.
Although I wouldn't use cloth TP except in a dire emergency, I won't judge others who do. (Isn't cloth TP what the pioneers used?)
- December 6, 2010 at 1:50 PM
I don't think your ideas went too far. Each choice we make involves a certain amount of risk. We have to do the best we can to inform ourselves, and then make the choice we feel is best for our situation. Your fellow staff writer didn't give enough information to persuade me that using cloth in the bathroom isn't safe. For instance, is he saying that babies stop wearing diapers once they begin eating meat? (Mine didn't.) Or is he saying that the meat babies eat doesn't rot, but the meat that adults eat does? I am not persuaded of that, either. He may be completely right, but I need more information.
- December 6, 2010 at 4:01 PM
- Pat said...
Stacie, I think the conditioner thing has to do with your expectations. I don't use fabric softener at all and don't often use the dryer, so all I want is something to stop the static when I do, and that works for that.
Cloth tp is a personal choice, just like any other frugal activity. Not everyone will or can do it all.
- December 6, 2010 at 4:02 PM
- Pat said...
Thanks, "anonymous." I appreciate your input and agree with your assessment.
- December 6, 2010 at 5:33 PM
- CheapbyChoice said...
I tell people all the time. There are TONS of frugal ideas out there. Some you can do and some you can't.
Some of the complainers don't even want to use a coupon.
I am not sure I can use a toilet cloth because of the eww factor, but I will never say never. I just started making my own laundry detergent. I said I would never do that.
Love your blog! Keep up the good work!
- December 6, 2010 at 5:45 PM
- Pat said...
Thanks, CheapbyChoice. I have done things I never thought I would, too, and I keep on finding things I want to try. Never say never is right! :)
- December 6, 2010 at 9:46 PM
- Forest said...
I think it is a great idea and I really need to get over my fears and do it! We are just so used to disposable toilet paper that we rarely think about the waste.
- December 7, 2010 at 1:20 AM
- Pat said...
That's true, Forest. We're so used to using so many wasteful things that we don't even think of them.
- December 7, 2010 at 9:54 AM
- martie said...
I grew up without TP. We did not however, wash our cloths. We had an outhouse, (in the tropics) so we would cut up old clothing and use the good pieces to make rag rugs or blankets and the rest got used for TP. They just got tossed down the hole. Even now, I would never run to the store just for tp. I would, and have done, cut up old clothing. Although I can't bring myself to wash them yet.
- December 7, 2010 at 2:48 PM
- Pat said...
martie, I don't see anything wrong with not washing cloths, as long as you have enough to dispose of. The idea is the same - don't buy something that costs you and the environment when you already have something you can use.
- December 7, 2010 at 3:06 PM
Thanks for sharing this link - but unfortunately it seems to be not working? Does anybody here at patverettosfrugalliving.blogspot.com have a mirror or another source?
- December 9, 2010 at 7:06 AM
- Pat said...
It works for me, William. Has anyone else had trouble with it?
- December 9, 2010 at 7:24 AM
- Phyllis Alesia said...
I go through so much toilet paper that I'm seriously considering this. That way you can just keep toilet paper for guests.
I put this is the same category as cloth feminine hygiene pads, and I know they work well for a lot of people.
- January 7, 2011 at 5:45 PM
- Dee said...
I have cut up old T shirts and use them for toilet paper. I am the only one using them, and I only use them when I urinate. I use toilet paper the rest of the time. I have a septic system and I just saw how much toilet paper was going into it.

That makes sense to me, Dee.

RENO, Nev.---The Chattanooga Mocs (2-3) led for a majority of the game, but Nevada (3-2) got the play of the game to claim an 83-81 win over the visitors from the Scenic City. Wolf Pack guard Deonte Burton banked in a three-pointer at the buzzer to send the Mocs to Los Angeles with the loss.
"It's disappointing to lose," Head Coach Will Wade said. "But like I told our guys, we are doing things the right way and we prepared well. This is the best team we've played all year – by far – and we played our best game. We played really well but didn't make a play there near the end. The kid banked in a 25-footer.
"There are certain things we could have done better, but one thing I am proud of is our execution down the stretch," he added. "It was much better today than it was against Kennesaw, and we ran the same plays today that we ran against Kennesaw. We just keep improving and I am proud of our guys."
It was a nail-biter to the finish. There were two ties and eight lead changes in the final minutes of the contest. Burton's free throw with 46 seconds left made it 80-78 Wolf Pack.
Z. Mason (Nashville, Tenn.) drained a three-pointer with 23 seconds remaining to put the Mocs up one, 81-80. It was a wild finish from there.
Burton dribbled the ball off his leg with 14 ticks left. Greg Pryor (Memphis, Tenn.) hit the floor, collected the loose ball and called timeout. The Mocs struggled to get the ball in, however, succumbing to a five-second call.
The Wolf Pack answered with a turnover of his own. Michael Perez drove to the basket but took an extra step to give the ball back to Chattanooga. The Mocs got it deep to Mason who was immediately fouled with around eight seconds to go.
Mason's free throws were off the mark, but Nevada struggled to get the ball up the floor. With 2.4 remaining, Nevada got the ball to Burton who launched his effort from 25 feet. The buzzer sounded as the ball banked its way in for the win.
"We probably could have been out there a little bit better on that three-pointer," Wade noted. "We switched up and got caught underneath the screen. It was a well-designed play by Coach (David) Carter, and we were just a half-second late. Lance Stokes was on the ball and within an inch of a deflection, but we are going in the right direction and have to stick with what we're doing."
Mason led the Mocs with 24 points and a game-high eight rebounds. He scored 15 of his points in the second half keying his squad down the stretch. Pryor added a season-high 19 points, five assists and three steals.
"I thought Z. Mason was great, and I thought Greg Pryor was phenomenal," Wade added. "We went to the well with Z. with some new plays we created for him, and he executed them well.
"We just came up short on a tough shot. I can't fault our effort or our guys," he concluded. "We executed very well, got stops and had great plays through adversity. If we can stick with that, it is going to carry over and pay huge dividends to us down the line."
Burton had a game-high 28 points for the Wolf Pack. He added five assists as Perez (12), Jerry Evans (11) and Marqueze Coleman (10) also scored in double digits.
It was a great start for Chattanooga scoring on its first five possessions. It led by as many as eight in the first half before taking a two-point lead, 41-39, into halftime. Lance Stokes (Orlando, Fla.) made it a seven-point affair, 53-46, on a layup at 13:10.
The Wolf Pack went on a 12-3 run to take their first lead of the game, 58-56, on a layup at 9:56. Mason tied it with two free throws 23 seconds later before Nevada looked to take control of the contest. Its lead swelled to five twice, but the Mocs would not go away. Pryor's three-point play at 5:14 tied the score at 71-all setting up the chaotic ending.
Chattanooga is off to California. It takes on UCLA at historic Pauley Pavilion Sunday at 10 p.m., Eastern time.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by hthrhwly so cute! these are adorable! runs a tad bit small, i'm 5'6,120 pounds. i got a size 26 and they fit snug but not uncomfortable. love the print! 5.22.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by JGS Love These! These jeans seem to fit true to size. They are soft and have plenty of stretch. I am between a 28-30 and I went with the 29 and they fit awesome! They have stretched out and fit very comfortably. They are super cute with a 60's mod flare to them. I am super stoked I bought them and you will be too! FYI: I'm super picky too! 5.9.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by FPnani Go Tribal I got these as soon as they came in the store :) The print is AMAZING! They are a rust color that is so unique. I get asked a lot about these puppies :) The only thing is they don't have much stretch. I can wear a 28 or 29, and in these the 29 is snug. love love love! 4.1.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Beachinchick Tropical Tribal I am 5'10, 135 lbs. I fluctuate depending on style and fabric in FP pants from a 28 to a 29. These pants are pretty stiff and do not have any stretch to them. I was talking to a girl that worked at an FP store who said she had them and she said that she has worn them quite a bit and they have not stretched out at all so I went with a 29. The model used for the tribal crop jeans must be shorter than me because these pants are much shorter on me than as what is pictured here. Because of that I will only be able to wear them with tall boots because they are so short on me that they would look weird with sandals or ankle boots. The colors in person are very muted with a lot of rose, pinks, and purples. I think they will look adorable with thermals, henleys, t-shirts, or tanks. 2.23.2012
Rated 3 out of 5Â by LadyMantis Cute but not for me + awkward fit As a petite person in height, I love ankle jeans because I don't have to have them hemmed! I very much liked these pants, but unfortunately when I got them home, I realized that I actually didn't have much to wear them with. I thought it would be silly for me to go out and buy all new clothing to go with one pair of pants. Not to mention, I have difficulty with skinny jeans in general because I have a small waist, but wide hips. I'm not just talking about muffin-topping but my wide hip bones were protruding over the waistband. All in all, I'd say to gals with wide hips to stay away from this one. I had to return mine. 2.22.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by shainaeliza navy blue stripe This pant is very fun. I personally adore these. I like that they are an ankle pant. Others say they run small, however in my situation, they are just not stretchy. Very good choice though! I would recommend. 5.23.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by NiJo Ivory Floral (5'4" - 125lbs) Got my usual size 28 and they fit great as always. Love how soft FP jeans are! 6.26.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Danglyd00 Reignited my love for pants! By far one of the most magical pairs of pants I've ever owned...it's as tho they were made to fit my body too! That's no easy accomplishment. Super true to size so for that I say many thanks! Not to mention the incredible lengthening lines. 2.4.2013

With houses remaining unsold for months -- even years, in some cases -- it's clearly not a good time to sell your home.
But if you're planning to sell soon despite the market conditions, how can you help your home stand out from the crowd?
Upgrades and renovations can make all the difference to a potential buyer who has many homes to choose from, experts say. With the recession keeping many people from spending on home improvements, now might be the perfect time to find a great deal.
"A lot of the big remodeling jobs have gone away because people are not sure about the economy, so they're just waiting," says David Lupberger, home improvement expert at ServiceMagic.com, a company that connects homeowners with home service professionals. As a result, "a lot of good contractors are available."
Contractors are ready and willing to do the job, and many can be hired at a discount right now, Lupberger says. "It's a matter of supply and demand. These guys have been used to doing one or two $300,000 projects. Those projects aren't around, so now they're doing the $25,000 projects, the $50,000 projects, and pricing them very competitively."
While deals will probably be best in areas of the country hit hard by the real estate downturn and a worsening economy, it doesn't hurt to get quotes from several contractors no matter where you live, Lupberger says. Also, be open to different types of offers. For example, one contractor could charge $5,000 less for one particular job, while another might tack on an extra project for free if you spend a certain amount of money with his company.
"Many buyers judge a house by its exterior," says Walter Molony, a spokesman for the National Association of Realtors. So it's little surprise that among the home improvement projects most appreciated by buyers are midrange wood deck additions and siding replacements, according to Remodeling magazine's 2008-2009 Cost vs. Value Report, which looks at the return of investment for various remodeling projects. Owners who put decks on their homes recouped 81.8 percent of their money, and siding replacement projects gave homeowners 80.7 percent of a return on investment.

Men's overall and team results
HAMBURG, NY – Medaille College women and Pitt-Bradford men won the team awards in the 4th annual Meghan Memorial Invitational cross country race held at Frontier High School September 22. Emily Quast (D'Youville) took top honors for the women's division with a 21:35 time, just thirty-four seconds faster than teammate Maria Fusco. Brandon Rebert (Medaille) ran a 18:00 flat 5K race beating the next closest runner by 46 seconds.
The Hilbert College women's team took 3rd place after D'Youville and Medaille tied each other for first. The eventual champion was named based on the finish order between both team's sixth place runner. Allison Stang's 27:44 was the difference maker for the Mavericks. Miranda Reimondo's 24:21 positioned her in 9th overall, but she led the other Hawk runners around the course. Crystal Hailey (25:36), Kayla Lansberry (27:25), Kateland Ball (28:01) and Julie Rouleau (35:56) represented Hilbert in their home race today.
Bradford's top four finishers all placed in the top 10, as the Panthers outdistanced D'Youville, Medaille and Hilbert, in that order. Hilbert's Josh Walczuk's eighth place overall finish came with a 20:14 time. Matt Williams (20:47), Tyler Roth (21:37), John Sadowski (21:59) and Kyle Kriegbaum (22:21) were the five runners to count towards the Hawks' team score today.
Winning the Open Division races were both coaches from Medaille College. Judy Arlington (23:45) outdistanced Hilbert's Lisa Arnst (24:22) and Walt Potocki (19:36) had no other open competition.
Hilbert's Matt Williams was presented the Meghan Memorial award at the conclusion of the awards ceremony.
Hilbert travels to Roberts Wesleyan College for their annual race beginning at 11 am September 29.

Partly Cloudy
Wind: 0 mph
It was good to see the large turnout for the Town Office public forum on December 11. So many questions and so many ideas! Too bad there hadn't been more of these before offering only two choices. Seems like the cost of both projects, the Methodist Church or the Farm Stand site, is a little overwhelming for most folks. Of course, these amounts,$2.4 million for the church and $1.7 million for the Farm Stand, still appear to be "guesstimates." The town office has certainly outgrown its present location and more space is needed, but at what cost?
There were numerous suggestions to use existing vacant properties. Neil Johnson presented several of these, one option being the former Troll Shop at Bragg Hill and Route100. I spoke with Kathleen at Dion Realtors and this property has a commercial building with an adjacent 30-foot-by-42-foot barn on 1.09 acres. There is ample parking, both front and rear of the building. The building has 3,556 square feet. The existing town office space is 1,750 square feet.
The proposed building for the Farm Stand site is 4,390 square feet, but there is approximately 1,500 square feet on the second story that is unusable as office space because of the elevator, two stairways and the walk-around area. This results in approximately 2,900 functional square feet (In contrast, the church property would be 5,800 square feet!).
The asking price is $335,000 (assessed value is $410,000). Even if it took an additional $400,000 or so to renovate, the town could save $1 million or more. Kathleen said she would gladly show the property to anyone who would like to see it. This is just one example of what is out there.
I know the task force wants the new town office to be located in the village, but this property is only one mile from Bridge Street. It might be worth taking a look at. As far as "saving" the Methodist Church, perhaps this is not the right time. In her December 6 editorial, Lisa Loomis stated that "private property owners are eligible for tax credits for historic preservation. Is not the upkeep of privately owned property the responsibility of the landowner?"
Reflecting on Paul Hartshorn's' concern about the town's purchase of the Birke Studio property, citing that this would take the land off the grand list, then what would the purchase of the Flemer property do to the grand list?! The talk is that this is prime real estate, so let someone buy it and let the town profit from the taxes. We have numerous expensive projects before us for the infrastructure of our town. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to fund these without being up to our eyeballs in debt?
Just wondering.

Great article, I will definitely be considering one of these options after deciding if the iPad 2 to iPad 3 upgrade is worth it on March 7th!
I'm normally an eBay kind of guy, but I will be looking to unload a larger priced item such as an iPad to a friend or family member to avoid the fees of eBay/Paypal.
How to sell your old iPad before upgrading to the new iPad 3
You've decided you're going to buy an iPad 3, sight unseen, the moment Apple lets you give them your money. Do you also want to get a jumpstart on selling your old iPad before the market gets saturated? No problem! If you're not handing it down to a friend or family member, or keeping it around the office as a backup device, why not get some cash back and put it towards the purchase of Apple's next big tablet device? It's a relatively straight forward process, but there are some things to be careful about, so here's how to get started.
Getting more for your old iPad
You'll never get back all the money you poured into your current iPad, but there are some things you can do to maximize the value before you sell.
- Jailbreak: This isn't as important as it is with selling old iPhones, especially since 3G iPads are unlocked by default, but a jailbroken iPad can still do things a stock one can't and some buyers will value that. If you are new to jailbreaking we suggest checking out the jailbreak starters guide for the best resources.
- Condition: The better your iPad looks, the more you'll get for it. That almost goes without saying, but the difference can be a good chunk of change. Make sure you give it a good cleaning before you offer it up for sale, and if you're still under AppleCare or warranty, and are having any issues, take it in for repair or replacement immediately. Most fixes are free and will add a lot of value to your iPad. (Even if you're no longer under warranty, Apple will still sometimes help you out, so it's always worth trying.)
- Wipe your data: Before you end up selling your old iPad, you absolutely have to run a full data wipe on it to make sure none of your data is available to the new owner. We've done a quick How-To post to help you with the process.
Putting your iPad up for sale
There are several different ways to sell your iPad, ranging from personal deals between friends, colleagues, or acquaintances, to local classified services, to online auctions. Each one has its pros and cons. Here are some things to consider:
Selling your iPad on eBay is a pretty simple process. However, there are still some things to keep in mind when using eBay to sell your iPad. For instance, eBay charges fees for each auction based on the item you're selling and how much it sells for, among other things, so here are five quick tips to help you get the most out of your auction:
- Only ship to the buyer's confirmed Paypal address if using Paypal.
- Price competitively if using Buy It Now as an option.
- Take the best looking photos you can. Humans are drawn to nice looking things.
- Make sure the pictures include any physical blemishes on the iPad and be up-front in your description.
- Use a fast shipping service and make sure you include that in your item description.
- Use keywords in your title and in your item description to attract more potential buyers.
You may also want to consider insuring your iPad in case anything goes wrong during shipping. Watch out for low-feedback buyers and also keep in mind that Paypal charges processing fees as well.
Selling on craigslist is something to consider if you'd rather deal with people locally and meet face-to-face exchange your iPad for cash. I've used Craigslist to sell a number of things around the house, and always follow a few basic rules:
- Don't ever put your personal or home address in an ad. Ever!
- Putting a personal phone number in an ad is okay, but that's up to you.
- Some find it easier to text rather than email.
- Meet in a public place, preferably in the daytime.
- Bring a friend or several friends; better safe than ripped off.
- Watch out for email scams, something for which Craigslist is notorious.
It's always a good idea to use caution when dealing with Craigslist. I've heard some pretty crazy stories so really, bring a friend and meet in an open, public area to avoid any problems.
Gazelle offers a service that lets you easily turn most electronic devices into cash. Simply send in your iPad and Gazelle will send you money after confirming the condition. The first thing you'll need to do is tell Gazelle what you're selling and what condition the item is in. You can choose from poor, fair, good or excellent condition It's important to be honest when rating the condition so there's no hiccups or snags along the way. It also helps if you have the box and original documentation and cables with your item, and the service will check for any water damages before giving you a quote.
The process takes about a week, and although you're not getting as much money in the end it's a great service if you don't want to deal with a lot of hassle. You can have your payment delivered through Paypal among other methods. You can also submit multiple items if you're looking to get rid of a few more things while you're at it.
SellYourMac.com offers a similar service to Gazelle by letting you send in your old iPad for payment with little to no hassle involved. In a nutshell, they'll buy your old Mac or iOS device. You're required to provide pictures along with a serial number next to your item description and condition. Once SellYourMac.com receives your iPad they clean it, inspect it and verify that it's in working condition before they turn around and sell it on eBay. Users can receive payment via Paypal and SellYourMac.com even says they give higher quotes than competing services like Gazelle, so you'll definitely want to compare before making any final decisions.
Apple Recycle Program
If selling your old iPad on any of the services mentioned above doesn't sound appealing, and it's not in good enough condition to give away, Apple has set up an iPod and Mobile Phone Recycling Program.
Personal transactions
Just because all these online services are available, it doesn't mean you can't still sell your old iPad the old fashioned way -- person to person, likely to a friend or acquaintance. Just be sure to follow all the tips suggested above, and remember that accessories like Square can even let you take credit cards right on your own device now, if cash isn't as convenient.
Bonus tip
Include all packaging, cables and adapters if possible. If you have any extra cases or accessories you want to throw in the deal it can usually net you a higher selling price as a bundle instead of trying to sell them individually.
Any questions?
Whether it's eBay, Criagslist or any other method for selling your old iPad we hope this article will help you along the way. As always, let us know if you have any questions or additional suggestions in the comments below!

How to sell your old iPad before upgrading to the new iPad 3
Great article, I will definitely be considering one of these options after deciding if the iPad 2 to iPad 3 upgrade is worth it on March 7th!
You should reset to factory settings and erase all info. Then update the OS to the newest version. Buyer takes a risk. They know how to check for what they need. As long as the iPad works fine for you, it is good.
If you are ready to pre-order your new iPad, I have created step by step instructions here. http://iphonetipsandtricks.lookitupforme.com/how-to-pre-order-the-new-ip...
I'd love it if you can write your experience in a comment there. And one more tip, pick a mall that you frequent, not one that the buyer chooses. And ask to see the money right after they see your iPad. Take a friend along and sit at a Starbucks or other cafes.
was it a 64gb with 3g?
I've sold several items in the past using Gazelle. And while using their service might not net you as much as a private sale possibly could, it was a smooth, seamless transaction.The most important thing is giving them a honest assessment of the item for sale.I'd definitely recommend them. They even pay for the shipping. Sometimes Gazelle will even run a promo code, (just do a Gazelle promo code search on Google.) It might not be a significant amount more, but I figure every little extra dollar getting us closer to an iPad 3 makes it all worthwhile.
was that an iPad 2? or 1? with or without 3g?
I got $550 for a 64GB WiFi on the weekend.
I think I did alright, it might have been worth $600... i dunno.
ipad 1 or 2?
It was an iPad 2. I don't see how anyone could get $600 for the first generation iPad.
sounds like i undersold mine...:(
In the UK you can re-cycle your iPad/iPhone through O2 (the mobile operator) the iPad2 16Gb WiFi will currently net you £245. I did this with my old iPhone 4 in January and got £220, twice what I paid to upgrade to the iPhone 4S.
Just sold my 1st gen iPad (wifi) for 300 bucks to a Facebook friend. Not. Bad deal since I threw in he dock, original box and 2 cases! Now my problem is surviving sans iPad until launch day!
I just saved a bunch of money by switching to GEICO....
and I am keeping my iPad2 16gb wifi, I just got it December 26th 2011
I'll wait a year before thinking about the new model.
Plus the ipad4 is going to have real unicorn meat inside it.
I will often buy iPhones off Craigslist, fix/unlock/jailbreak them, and then sell them on eBay, sometimes for four times as much as I paid. I've sold a few to foreign countries where the auction has reached upwards of $600 (before fees)! DO NOT SHIP TO RUSSIA! I've lost three iPhones in the mail on their way over there. Most corrupt customs agents in the world.
Has anyone else tried to upgrade iPads with the geek squad insurance from Best Buy? They cover all accidents. Back in the day when I had a Zune (lol) I told them it was broken and I upgraded to the newer model. Has anyone else tried this with iPads? My friend says she used to upgrade to the new model every year.
If you plan to use Craigslist, make sure you meet in a public place, maybe bring a friend as well. Can never be too safe.

Pac-12 Power Rankings through Week 12 of the regular season
1. Stanford (9-2, 7-1)
There's little doubt the Cardinal are playing better than anyone in the Pac-12. The problem: To win the championship, Stanford must beat UCLA—another hot team—on back-to-back weekends.
2. Oregon (10-1, 7-1)
The Ducks must win the North Division and play in the Pac-12 Championship Game to have a chance to play for it all. That begins with Stanford losing at UCLA this weekend.
This South Division title feels a lot better than last year's title that was won when USC couldn't represent the conference because it was on probation.
4. Oregon State (8-2, 6-2)
The Beavers can beat the Ducks and UCLA can beat Stanford to force a three-way tie in the North Division—but Stanford has the tiebreaker over Oregon and Oregon State by beating both.
5. Arizona (7-4, 4-4)
The Wildcats have won three of the last four with rival Arizona State, and need to continue the momentum from Rich Rodriguez's first season.
6. Washington (7-4, 5-3)
If the Huskies can win the Apple Cup at Washington State, a potential disaster season (3-4 after seven games) will turn into a springboard for something much bigger with a fifth straight victory.
From preseason No. 1 to five losses—and probably six losses after next week's game against Notre Dame. At the very least, the Trojans will get to see what life is like with QB Max Wittek.
8. Arizona State (6-5, 4-4)
A big win last weekend for the Sun Devils, who snapped a four-game losing streak. ASU has beaten the teams it should this fall, and lost to the teams it should. Time to break that strong this week against Arizona and beat a team it shouldn't.
9. Utah ((4-7, 2-6)
The Utes never really had a chance this fall with so many injuries early. No matter what happens this weekend at Colorado, it will be Utah's first losing season since 2002—the year Ron McBride was fired and Urban Meyer eventually took over.
10. California (3-9, 2-7)
The biggest issue now at Cal: the program is trending down. That hurts with recruiting and attendance and impacts and affects everything it reaches.
11. Colorado (1-10, 1-7)
It appears as though Jon Embree will get another season in Boulder. CU doesn't have the money to pay off another coach, and Embree likely will shuffle his coaching staff.
12. Washington State (2-9, 0-8)
Locker room drama prior to game week, followed by a 46-7 loss to Arizona State. Textbook.

Police investigators are trying to identify a man they say broke into a gun display case in Wal Mart and stole two AK-47 style rifles.
According to a Summerville Police Department incident report, the theft occurred about 3:35 a.m. Thursday in the Wal Mart on North Main Street in Summerville. According to the report, the loss prevention officer at the store reported finding the case broken into with a hammer and chisel stolen from the hardware section of the store.
The subject was described as a black male about 5 feet eleven inches tall and 180 pounds, about 20-30 years old, wearing khaki pants and a camouflage jacket. The subject was observed running toward U.S. 17 A. with at least one stolen rifle.
Further investigation revealed two rifles, a Bushmaster Patrolmans Carbine .223 caliber rifle and a Smith and Wesson .22 caliber rifle, as well as a box of 20 gauge shotgun shells were missing from the case.
Officer arriving on the scene canvassed the area and while they were unable to locate a suspect, they did recover the rifles in a patch of pampas grass near the Quality Inn adjacent to the I-26 exit ramp.

BIG BEAR LAKE, Calif. - - Authorities are offering a $1 million reward for information leading to the arrest of Christopher Dorner, the former Los Angeles police officer suspected in three killings who is the subject of a manhunt in Southern California.
LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa announced the reward at a news conference at LAPD headquarters Sunday.
Some 80 miles to the east, SWAT teams continued to scour snow-covered mountains near where the 33-year-old fugitive's charred pickup truck was discovered Thursday.
Authorities say Dorner has vowed revenge against several former LAPD colleagues whom he blames for ending his career.

- Guidelines for interlinear morphemic translations : a proposal for a standardization (1980)
- I shall use the precise term 'interlinear morphemic translation (IMT) to designate the object of this study. [...] An IMT is a translation of a text in a language L1 to a string of elements taken from L2 where, ideally, each morpheme of the L1 text is rendered by a morpheme of L2 or a configuration of symbols representing its meaning and where the sequence of the units of the translation corresponds to the sequence of the morphemes which they render. [...] An IMT is needed whenever it is essential that the reader grasp the grammatical structure of the L1 text but is presumed to be so unfamiliar with L1 that he will not be able to do so merely with the aid of a normal translation and the context in which the text is cited. [...] The primary aim of an IMT is to make the grammatical structure of the L1 text transparent. The textual fluency of the IMT by standards of the L2 grammar is a subordinate aim at best.
- Problems of english-german automatic translation (1971)
- The aim of any Automatic Translation project is to give a mechanical procedure for finding an equivalent expression in the target language to any sentence in the source language. The aim of my linguistic translation project is to find the corresponding structures of the languages dealt with. The two main problems that have to be solved by such a project are the difference of word order between the source language and the target language and the ambiguous words of the source language for which the appropriate word in the target language has to be chosen. The first problem is of major linguistic interest: once the project has been worked out, it will give us the parallel sentence structures for the two languages in question. Since there is no complete analysis of any language that could be used for the purpose of automatic translation, we decided to build up our project sentence by sentence. The rules which are needed for translating each sentence will have to be included in the complete program anyway, and the translation may be checked and corrected immediately. The program is split up into subroutines for each word-class, so that a correction of the program in case of an unsatisfactory translation does not complicate the program unnecessarily.

Within moments, his wife emerged from the house with a kindly attitude and chocolate cookies and orange juice and a cell phone, with which they called the unattainable Shangri-la of Ballan-Mire. I asked if they could call us a taxi and let us leave our bikes in their yard until the morning, but the couple seemed tickled by their windfall of visitors and the chance to help out. They decided they wanted to drive us there, so they loaded us into their car and delivered us, then made another round-trip to bring our bikes once we were installed and debriefed. It turns out that we had been nowhere, nowhere at all, near Ballan-Mire. Even after examining the map in detail, I couldn't figure out how we'd gone wrong, or, for that matter, where we had actually been. It was as if we'd fallen into a wormhole for a while.
It was far too late to go out to eat, so our innkeeper insisted on making dinner for us; we sat around her big oak kitchen table, eating good pasta and drinking her wine, and trying to piece together how the bike path had vaporized. Out of it came a reminder of how the misfirings in travel are often what stick with you, much more than those things you think you're supposed to care about and find inspiring.
We had one more castle to go, the marvelous Forteresse Royale, a huge blocky structure on a steep hillside above Chinon. We took a few wrong turns on the way—a combination of fatigue and inattention to our itinerary, and the recklessness you feel toward the end of a journey—so we rode into Chinon not along the river, pedaling steadily and slowly along the recommended route, but slaloming down a raggedy road that pitched nearly headlong to the river. It was crazy and exhilarating, the perfect punctuation to a day that had been gently mesmerizing.
Chateau de Blois. (Joshua Paul)
By this time, I felt like Superman, like I could ride anywhere. I was happiest on the days we rode the farthest, the days we were on the road for five or six hours, zooming along as if I had done this my whole life. I was suddenly seized with the desire to do nothing but bike trips—the intimacy of the view, the chance to see and smell and listen as part of the travel, thrilled me. And the whole notion of chafing seemed ridiculous. Could I have really been begging people via social media to help save me from this? Maybe I would start a new hashtag: #pleasesendmeanywhereonabike.
The plunge into town, into the lap of the castle, was a great payoff. For me, the day had already been full, because I felt practically melded to my bike now, almost flying through those perfect tan and golden wheat fields that had sung to us on our way to Chinon. I now knew that on a bike I could see places the way I love to, close enough to notice the odds and ends that gave it texture, at a pace that made me feel like I was truly in it—part of it—and not just passing through.

- Human rights and justice in a multicultural world (2012)
- This paper intends to discuss some contemporary issues on human rights and democracy related to the concept of justice. Is the set of individual rights that is assumed by western democracies really universal? If so, how are they supposed to be interpreted? On the other side if I take into account the "other" and pluralism in a serious way how to conciliate different concepts of justice? Taking Jacques Derrida's approach of justice as its standpoint this paper aims to stress the difficulty to achieve a unique concept of justice as well as to think justice in the sphere of international law and the problem of ensuring human rights in the international order. Western democracies has becoming more and more multiethnic and multicultural and the set of rights that is at the center of the legal order has to be interpreted in a dialogical sense, one that assumes difference and plurality as its starting point. The plurality of conceptions of the good and the impossibility of establishing a unique concept of justice demands the re-creation of a democratic sphere where the dissent and the conflict could be experienced and, at the same time, the legal order needs to ensure individual and group rights against majority's dictatorship. The main goal of this paper is to re-think the interpretation of law in a multicultural scenario in which it is not possible to have only one criteria of justice and difference and pluralism are envisaged are values themselves.
- 037
- Free will, robots, and the axiom of choice (2012)
- There are quite a number of similarities between the moral concept of choice and the mathematical axiom of choice. These similarities shed light on how to adapt law to solve cases that arise with the increasing "autonomy" of robots.
- 038
- Axiomatic method and the law (2012)
- Whether an axiomatic approach to law is possible and useful today has to be perceived as unanswered. Perception of the axiomatic method among lawyers, however, is clouded by misunderstanding. Clarifying them may generate new discussion about the axiomatization of legal theories.
- 044
- National socialist law and the censuring of modernist culture, art and literature (2012)
- This paper traces the development of National Socialist cultural and legal policy towards the arts. It examines the role of censure in this development starting with Hitler's first attempts at power in the Weimar republic. It then looks more closely into aspects of the development of new policies in and after 1933 and their implementation in institutions of the totalitarian state. As the paper shows, policies were carried out within a legal framework that included parliament and constitutional law but they were often also accompanied by aggressive political actions. Racial and nationalistic ideologies were at the heart of the National Socialist discourse about culture. This discourse quickly established modernity as its principal enemy and saw modernist culture (in the broad sense of the word), and especially art criticism, as being under Jewish domination. True German Kultur was set against this; Hitler himself promoted German art both through exhibitions and through policies which included the removal of un-German art and the exclusion of writers and artists who did not conform the cultural ideal. As Jewish artists and intellectuals in modernist culture posed the greatest threat to the establishment of a new German culture, Nazi policies towards the arts embarked on a process of censure, exclusion and annihilation. The purpose of these policies was nothing less than the elimination of all modernist (Jewish and 'degenerate') culture and any memory of it.
- 055
- Jeffrey Alexander's theory of the civil sphere between philosophy and sociology of law (2012)
- Alexander's theory of the civil sphere can be placed in the context of development of sociology of law. However, Alexander draws not so much on sociological theories but rather on the approaches of philosophy of law, particularly the ideas of Fuller, Dworkin and Habermas. The civil sphere is presented by Alexander as the embodiment of Dworkin's principal integrity. Locating law within civil morality Alexander reveals the similarity of his viewpoint to Dworkin's position. Drawing on Fuller's works Alexander singles out the procedural foundations of the democratic order. At the same time for Alexander the source of morality of law is not the legal system itself but a certain level of civil solidarity. Like Habermas, Alexander emphasizes the culturally embedded character of the legal norms. Alexander shares Habermas's understanding of law as a regulative mechanism affecting all spheres of social life. However, Habermas is more sensitive to the danger of colonization of law by the imperatives of the economic and political subsystems. Alexander's approach can be contrasted with Luhmann's sociological theory of law. Alexander concentrates on interrelation and mutual penetration of the civil sphere and law while Luhmann regards law as an autonomous system following its own logic. While Alexander claims that his theory is rooted both in sociology and philosophy of law in fact his approach is closer to normative philosophy.

- Anthropology and law: dialogue for otherness (2012)
- To become self-reflexive, Jurisprudence must to establish a dialogue: the human sciences should lose their exotic character in the eyes of Legal Science. It is in the middle between the "order" and the thinking about it, where the "naked experience" happens, that culture and therefore Law builds itself e it is constructed. This paper demonstrates the need to use other human sciences, with emphasis on anthropology, as "methodological strategies" for Jurisprudence self-reflection to become more faithful to the reality of the researched object. Anthropology has the power to show what is "anti-modern". It questions the intellectual space of modernity where the hard definition of antagonisms detached from reality occurs - West/East, "I"/other, civilized/barbarian. Jurisprudence consolidates antagonisms: the diversity and plurality of human societies are rarely seen as a fact but as an aberration, always demanding a justification. It is necessary to create a methodology using what is most extraordinary and human in the analysis of fact: "Anthopological Blues". Anthropology is capable of breaking with the classical conception of scientific methodology that is based on stiffness to produce absolute truths and also support the fulfillment of legal concepts with content and meaning, providing a reinterpretation of science as a human instrument of intervention on reality.

Suicide is a major public health concern. Every year in the United States, more than 36,000 individuals die by suicide, hundreds of thousands attempt suicide, and millions of friends and loved ones are affected. Yet, suicide is preventable. Knowing the risk factors for suicide and who is at risk can help reduce the suicide rate.
In some cases, a sudden catastrophic event, failure, or humiliation like a home foreclosure or job loss can leave people feeling desperate, profoundly depressed, and unable to see a way out. Factors that can contribute to suicide include:
Pre-existing depression
Depression and other mental disorders or a substance-abuse disorder (often in combination with other mental disorders). More than 90 percent of people who die by suicide have these risk factors.The individual may have been depressed a long time, and what appears to be financial calamity puts him or her over the edge.
Self definition
If a person defines his or her value by job or financial status, this individual may be vulnerable.
Shame and humiliation
Sudden shame and humiliation over losing money or strong feelings of guilt or self-blame can be overwhelming.
Family history
Family history of mental disorders, substance abuse, or suicide. Family violence, including physical or sexual abuse.
Signs of trouble include comments like:
"I'm finished."
"It's all over."
"My family would be better off without me."
"There's no hope. There's nothing I can do."
If someone indicates they are considering suicide, listen and take their concerns seriously. Don't be afraid to ask questions about their plans. Let them know you care, and they are not alone. Encourage them to seek help immediately from a knowledgeable professional. Don't leave them alone.
If you need help, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255).

As a spinoff of this thread, is anyone familiar with the GUNS OF THE SOUTH?
(See this thread http://www.gunco.net/forums/showthread.php?t=8039 )
I was toying with what would an AK built under mid-19th century conditions be like?
The steel mags are basically doable at that time.
The receiver, milled.
The round a .36 caliber (9mm x 39) loaded with patched lead rounds and black powder.
This caliber is already used in Russian special purpose weapons like the VSS (albeit with FMJ rounds).
Metric designation
Bullet weight, g
Muzzle velocity, m/s
9mm SP-5
Subsonic ball
9mm SP-6
Subsonic AP

US 9x39 Ammo
The barrel would need to be at least 20" long, to wring the most out of the black powder.
The front sight base and gas chamber in cast brass.
The finish non-existent (as period arms can "armory bright")
The bayonet a socket type with spike blade (like a Mosin Nagant's)
All furniture of wood, not laminated.
The rear buttstock longer, with a brass buttplate and a definative wrist ( like the SMLE's).
And it'd be engraved with something like Tredegar Iron Works Self-Loading Carbine, calibre .36

The ARK system uses a Monotube design in which the oil and gas are separated within the cylinder. When compared to twin tube designs the Monotube dissipates heat better, allows finer dampening adjustments, and requires more expensive design process. Aeration and cavatation are a lot less common in a Monotube design, which results in a better ride. The ARK DT-P Coilover system has been designed with professional road racing in mind offering extremely high value and performance.
