A US Department of Energy-sponsored project has led to development of an infrastructure placement analysis system (IPAS) to help producers recover natural gas more effectively from shale formations in environmentally sensitive areas.
DOE's Fossil Fuels Office said on Aug. 5 that the University of Arkansas and DOE's Argonne National Laboratory joined the project, managed by DOE's National Energy Technology Laboratory, to develop the software planning tool, which is available online.
It said that researchers believe the 50-mile wide Fayetteville Shale play, underlying numerous central and eastern Arkansas counties with more than 2 million acres leased, could become one of the nation's most active shale gas production areas.
The risk management tool lets operators more effectively evaluate alternative sites, identify sensitive areas, and minimize environmental impacts, according to DOE. It said that the IPAS software accomplishes this by providing a map of the intersection of drilling pads, roads, gathering lines and other proposed features with sensitive water locations, existing transmission lines, soil data and other features.
Operators who use the software can streamline the well placement and infrastructure development permitting processes, DOE said.
It said that researchers estimate that the software can reduce the time required to locate infrastructure elements by a day or more for at least 10% of well sites. Estimated cost savings could approach $2.25 million/year with a drilling rig day rate of up to $45,000 on 500 wells per year, it indicated.
The IPAS website can be found online at http://lingo.cast.uark.edu/IPAS/.

Create Face
The Create Face menu item invokes the Create Face utility allowing you to troubleshoot face creation and, in most cases, create a face for three or more intersecting edges. Specifically, the Create Face utility is useful when:
- A model has two edges that have a common end point geometrically (the coordinates of the end point are the same), but the edges are not connected topologically. In this case, the Create Face utility will properly connect edges and create a face.
- A face cannot be created because edges are not exactly planer, or appear to be connected when there is actually a small gap between the ends of the edges. In these instances, Create Face will not create a face, but displays a message indicating why SketchUp cannot create a face. This message can be used to troubleshoot face creation.
Query tool
The Query tool menu item invokes a Query tool utility that displays the current mouse position in the Measurements toolbar.
The Sandbox submenu contains options for modifying terrain. This menu item only appears after enabling the terrain modeling tools using the Extensions panel of the Preferences dialog box. See the Sandbox tools topic for further information.

Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid #5 Light
Formulated for fade-free dampening and smooth rebounds in high-performance applications
Controls friction, heat, wear, foaming and scuffing in suspension components. High viscosity index and shear-stability controls shock fade and inconsistent dampening in temperature extremes.
Package sizes include:
Data Sheet
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid is formulated with
shear-stable synthetic base stocks with high viscosity indices.
Its complete additive package reduces foaming, aeration and
wear, while seal conditioners are added to keep seals soft and
pliable. AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid has been
tested and proven to be a superior, balanced product recommended
for a wide range of temperatures and applications.
Controllled Dampening and Rebound
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid is formulated to make
suspension systems more predictable. Its base stocks have
inherently high viscosity indices that effectively maintain viscosity,
while its anti-foam agents reduce aeration and foam.
Reduces Friction and Wear
The constant friction within a shock body decreases suspension
performance. AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid contains
friction modifiers to reduce the energy loss caused by friction,
while anti-wear agents are added to protect shocks and forks from
premature wear.
AMSOIL STL #5 Is Recommended For Applications Specifying The Following:
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid is recommended for
front forks and shocks on snowmobiles, motocross and cruiser
motorcycles, ATVs and other racing and recreational use vehicles,
as well as cars and trucks that require suspension systems that
perform in the most extreme conditions. It is recommended the
fluid be agitated before use.
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid is available in two
different viscosities. AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid
Light #5 (STL) is recommended for, but not limited to, Showa®,
Kayaba®, Bilstein®, RydeFX®, Penske® and WP® forks; and
RACETECH® (US1) and Custom Axis® suspension systems. Use
Shock Therapy Light #5 where less dampening and quicker rebounds
are desired. It is also the preferred choice for winter use.
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid Medium
#10 (STM) is recommended for, but not limited to, Ohlin®, FOX®, RACETECH®
(US2), Koni® and WP® shocks; and Harley-Davidson® forks that recommend
type "E" or "B" fork oil. Use Shock Therapy Medium #10
where more dampening control and slower rebounds are desired.

2013 Lamborghini Gallardo Ownership Costs
Cost of Ownership data coming soon
There is no cost of ownership information available for the 2013 Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Coupe at this time
2013 Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Coupe cost of ownership data is powered by
Ownership costs are the costs to purchase and operate a vehicle over a period of time. Understanding these costs may enable you to save money and help you make a wiser decision when choosing your next new car.
Regardless of the "value" claims that you may read in car reviews or hear in advertisements, the economic value of a car is based on how much it will cost to own and operate compared to its purchase price. In a sense, purchase price is "what you pay" and the ownership costs are "what you get."
Ownership costs can differ greatly. The cost to own and operate two different vehicles with equal purchase prices can differ by thousands. Of course when evaluating ownership cost for used cars and trucks, a vehicle's condition and mileage will greatly impact ownership costs, therefore it's important to compare similar vehicles in similar condition for an accurate picture.

Basic Warranty:
The basic warranty covers everything except items that are subject to wear and tear or replacement in the ordinary course of vehicle ownership, such as oil and air filters, wiper blades and brake pads. Tires and batteries are often excluded, but usually have their own warranty provided by the manufacturers of those items. Emissions equipment is required by Federal law to be covered for five years or 50,000 miles.
Drive Train Warranty:
In some cases the drive train warranty continues after the basic warranty has expired. This part of the warranty covers most of the parts that make the vehicle move, including the engine, transmission, drive axles and driveshaft. Like the basic warranty, consumable parts such as hoses and belts are not covered. However, most of the internal parts of the engine, such as the pistons and bearings, which are also subject to wear and tear, are covered by the drive train warranty.
Roadside Assistance:
Many manufacturers provide a service that will rescue you if your car leaves you stranded, even if it's your fault. Lock yourself our of your car? Run out of gas? Got a flat tire? A call to the manufacturer's toll-free number will result in somebody showing up who can help you out. There is a huge variance in these programs so check ahead of time to see what is covered and what you will have to pay for.
Rust or Corrosion Warranty:
Rust or Corrosion Warranty: This warranty covers the vehicle's sheet metal, and protects you from rust and corrosion that are severe enough to cause a hole - surface rust is not covered. However, if you keep your car washed and waxed rust shouldn't be a problem.

LEICESTER, England -- It took five centuries but the mystery over what happened to the remains of England's last Plantagenet king, Richard III, is finally solved after scientists at the University of Leicester confirmed a skeleton buried under a city parking lot is Shakespeare's much maligned king.
Monday's announcement brings to a close the long-debated question of what followed the killing of Richard III on the battlefield 528 years ago. Further tests on the skeleton that suggest that accounts of his withered arm are inaccurate may help to restore his reputation, historians say.
"This is a historic moment and the history books will be rewritten," said Philippa Langley, originator of the search and a member of the Richard III Society. "We have searched for Richard and found him - now it is now time to honor him."
The remains will be reburied in Leicester Cathedral.
The skeleton was found in September in a University of Leicester dig on the site of a medieval church, Grey Friars, now a parking lot for a social services office. It had what was thought to be a metal arrow in its back - in fact, more likely to be a Roman nail -- and head injuries. Both are consistent with records of how Richard III was killed at the Battle of Bosworth in 1485. It also had a curved spine, fitting with reports that one of Richard III's shoulders was higher than the other.
Over the past four months, the remains have been subjected to a series of tests, including a computed-tomography (CT) scan and radio carbon dating. Specialists in medieval battles and weaponry advised on the kinds of instruments that may have caused the damage to the skull.
Scientists carried out tests on DNA from the remains, comparing it with a sample from Canadian furniture-maker Michael Ibsen, 55, now confirmed along with his siblings as the 17th-generation descendant of Richard III's sister, Anne of York.
Ibsen said he was stunned when he heard the news yesterday. "I'm still trying to digest it. I've been aware of the on-going tests but I never thought there would be an almost perfect match with the DNA," he said.
A number of other men identified as descendants of Edward III through his son John of Gaunt - who would both share the same Y chromosome as Richard III -- also donated DNA to the project to confirm the male line.
The analysis of the male line is still in its early stages but Turi King, a University of Leicester geneticist, hopes it will provide a complete picture on both lines of descent.
"The DNA sequence obtained from the Grey Friars skeletal remains was compared with the two maternal line relatives of Richard III - we were very excited to find that there is a DNA match between the maternal DNA from the family of Richard III and the skeletal remains at the Grey Friars dig," King said.
Skeletal analysis carried out by Jo Appleby, an osteoarcheologist at the university, showed that the individual was male and in his late 20s to late 30s. Richard III was 32 when he was killed. Trauma to the skeleton shows cause of death was the result of one or two wounds to the back of the skull that could have been made by a sword or halberd, a type of ax. This is consistent with accounts of Richard being killed after receiving a blow to the back of his head. The skeleton also showed a number of non-fatal injuries - to the head, rib and one to the pelvis believed to be from a wound through the right buttock -- which Appleby says may have been inflicted as humiliation after death.
"The skeleton has a number of unusual features: its slender build, the scoliosis and the battle-related trauma," she said. "All these are highly consistent with the information that we have about Richard III in life and about the circumstances of his death. Taken as a whole, the skeletal evidence provides a highly convincing case for identification as Richard III."
Richard III reigned for two years until his death at Bosworth, the last major battle of the dynastic struggle known as the Wars of the Roses fought on and off from 1455. The last English king to be killed in battle, Richard's death brought about the end of three centuries of Plantagenet rule and ushered in the Tudors -- starting with Henry VII and including Henry the VIII -- who reigned for the next 117 years.
While Richard remains the prime suspect in the disappearance of his nephews -- the princes in the tower who vanished after their uncle assumed the throne -- many academics and historians hope the positive identification will go some way to restoring Richard's reputation.
Modern views of the medieval king have been heavily influenced by Shakespeare's portrayal in the play Richard III, historians say.
Shakespeare shows Richard as a power-hungry, Machiavellian scoundrel who goes around murdering anyone who stands in the way of his ascent to power. He depicts him as having a withered arm but the new scientific evidence discredits this description as both of the skeleton's arms are the same length.
Langley said Richard III was a progressive leader who pioneered a system of bail for those arrested, the legal principles of presumption of innocence until proven guilty and blind justice, and that he introduced books to England.
"It's ironic that he is guilty until proven innocent of the disappearance of the princes even though there is no evidence against him," she said.
She said the "winds of change are blowing" on his reputation and pledged to seek out the truth.
"The two dimensional caricature promoted by the Tudors will be no more," she said.
Ibsen hopes the identification of his royal predecessor will stimulate people to take a wider interest in Richard III, and not just of his short reign. "I hope it will lead to a broader evaluation of his life as a whole," he said.

Post subject: electric fence review
lookee here! a review of the cd that comes with the new summer fencezine has already arrived on the beefboard ... and by that fine chap from bristol who goes by the name of bhoywonder!
"Whenever a new Fencezine pops through the door, the same 3 thoughts struggle to be the strongest inside my very little brain:
1 oh bugger, I was going to submit something wasnt I? Ah well, theres always next time
2 I really, really, really love those guys.
3 I really, really, really wish I didnt live so far away from those guys.
You see, its a thing of beauty, is the Fencezine. There are little bits of lots of people I know, either reasonably well (although never well enough), or just through the beef, or Ive met them once, briefly, or Ive still got what will doubtless be a joy in discovering and meeting them.
Oh, and they chuck in some hastily cobbled-together CD of things that arent really good enough to release officially. Some of which isnt actually half bad.
The CD that comes with the Fencezine is often a thing of greatness. The Electric Fence CD, however, goes waaaaaaaaaaaaay above and beyond this. Its a bloomin marvel!
I Dont Know How To Begin we all know and love this song, of course. After all, our ears arent just painted on! The piano on this version is worthy of being a 60 second intro on its own, the warmth of the additions makes for a lovely new, fresh version of this Fence classic. Its fun, its interesting, its a great, chilled opener. Gorgeous, in fact.
Viva Stereo are one of those who Im only aware of through the FZ. Maybe its time to investigate further, especially if Travel By Sea is anything to go by. Its kind of halfway between underwater and floating in space. Its quietly ecstatic, sensual and glorious.
It never ceases to amaze me what can be done by these people who make remixes. I dont really know what it means anymore. Is Hallelujah My Demise a remix of Circle or is it a new piece sampling KC? I guess its fairly irrelevant (unless youre Clock or KC). Either way, whats Clock doing not being very famous? Surely this iis the sort of thing those folk at The Wire magazine toss off to each month? Get them a CD! Sort of slopey, sloppy groove that never gets close to running its course. Wheres the 12 megamix available from?
Now, this Jon Hopkins feller well hes special, isnt he? Sort of special that makes me think that somebody very special has come along, if you know what I mean? I had this feeling when I first heard Jah Wobble, when I first heard Loveless, and Psychocandy, and Adventures Beyond The Ultraworld, the 3eps, kind of one of those very rare things heres a feller who really understands and is also able to interpret his thoughts. The vision and the skill in equal measure. Brian Eno wasnt wrong about this boy.
Whats this? Why, its a bongo pattern that reminds me of one of Nina Simones live albums, the one with Funkier Than A Mosquitos Tweeter on. Groooooove. This is another of those mix things where I dont understand how its done, and theres a bit at 106, the note he hits on the word on, and the way it harmoizes ooh, I likes that! Another familiar song given a new, fresh, interesting and funky way of life. Is it just me, or is this the sexy mix? Im sure MC Quake wouldnt have been having any kind of rude thoughts though hes not that kind of guy.
Ah, more nice piano, but this time it allows itself to shine for a while longer. Nice and with such a Nikki Sudden-esque title, Death Sells. Too cynical for this piece of slow-motion running through fields of corn and dandelions music though, surely? Or is it the dichotomy that makes it? Or am I talking bullshit about what is, basically, 252 of gorgeous sound? Probably. Again with the 12 megamix request.
Now were raving. Eggshell Miles doesnt really do an awful lot. It doesnt need to either. Im not going to do jouro-bullshit on this one. Its just a great groove.
See, were only halfway through and already its been a blast. A right blast. But hud oan, whos this making this very cool Connected To Light? (glances at pretty sleeve) No, I dont believe you. OK, so of course I do. He can do whatever he wants, as weve seen many times. Im looking forward to more along this line, and not a J Mascis solo in sight! Yet again, my only possible complaint is that its not long enough.
Its from here to the end that really gets me though. Its like one continuous piece from here on in, a dazzling display of glorious technicolour music.
The 2 Saffy Nools are inspired, to say the least, and work superbly as 2 halves on the same thing, and its impossible to state a preference to either, both being of such a high calibre as to be impossible to fault. OTFs affectionate reworking floats around the disembodied KC refrain before hep-hepping into the Clocks treatment, picking up the pace and trotting it out into the wilds. The bottle-neck guitar hits the spot! By the time we get around to I Ran By Your Grave its almost like coming home from a holiday you dont want to leave. But what a homecoming!
Now, some of you will know that Im almost as big a fan of HMS G and KC is himself, but come on, listen to that voice! You cant be taught that. Thats a gift. Kwaing knows how to use it too. He sounds like hes learnt something from MC Quake on this one to me. Fine lazy grooves, quality beeps and screeches. And there isnt anyone loves a false ending like I do! Woo! Encore!
More KC vocals given the electronics from Reporter and all of a sudden the realisation of just how exciting the non-acoustic side of Fence has become whacks me. I played Hiko the other night and had one of those why dont I play this all the time? moments. Put him and KC together and the synergy (yes, synergy, ok?) is special. Haunting, pared down yet saturated, under the right balance of cider and red wine, this could make me cry. Give it till the weekend and it most probably will. And after Ive done that, Ill get all righteous.
This is the best piece of MC Quake vocal Ive ever heard. Its the best piece of OTF music Ive ever heard. And it has the Lone Pigeons voice on it, which is one off the best voices Ive ever heard. The whole is greater even than the sum of its parts. That this track stands out so far on a CD so crammed with brilliance is testament to the I dont know how to describe it its full of contradiction, its deeply depressing and wonderfully uplifting at the same time. I identify with this track greatly and would die happy if I could have made it. Gav, Quake, Gords, take a bow.
And so we leave where we came in, not that we know how! One last kiss just lets hold this on a little longer and reflect, take each bit of life out of each moment then go right back to the beginning and play it again
Id like to add that theres a pretty good chance youll think me a right pretentious/pompous twat writing this. Im sorry if you think that, indeed, Im sorry if I am. I cant help myself slipping into journalist-mode sometimes. Pluss I get a bit emotional and excitable sometimes.
Oh, and isn't this thread in the wrong place?
Thanks to all involved, including r.a. who made the thing sound like one piece of beautiful art."
nice one!

|SUV Flipped in Boone Wreck
|Written by Steve Frank
|Saturday, 11 June 2011 21:13
There were several injuries in an accident Saturday afternoon just before 3 as a small sedan collided with an SUV and flipped the larger vehicle onto its top. The accident was on State Farm Road where Shadowline Drive becomes Dale Street.(photo by Alex Giammatteo)
The impact caused the SUV to spin nearly down a steep embankment to a parking lot below, landing precariously overhanging the lot. There appeared to be no life-threatening injuries, although Watauga Medics treated several at the scene and Boone Police are investigating.

Smoky recycling plant fire no threat to buildings
PHOENIX — Officials say a fire at a recycling plant near the Phoenix airport is spreading smoke that's visible for miles but isn't threatening any structures.
Capt. Mark Vanacore, a Phoenix fire spokesman, said Sunday that 200 firefighters are battling the blaze that's eating through recycled paper over an area estimated to be the size of a couple of football fields.
He says no buildings are damaged or threatened in the commercial area. No injuries have been reported, and it's not known if anyone was at Arizona Pacific Pulp and Paper when the blaze broke out. A message left for the company after hours wasn't immediately returned.
It's unclear how the fire started at the business just south of Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. It was reported at 3 p.m., and crews were making progress as of Sunday evening.

I received my order today and the wonderful fragrances in your soaps are allowing me to experience Hawaii all over again.

I might give him one of the bars tonight.Also, your shipping to California was FAST, FAST, FAST. Bravo! The box and wrapping paper smells good too!

Aloha! My husband bought a bar of your pineapple soap at the airport on our way home from Australia - (he had already purchased 16 bars of your tropical soap earlier). When I mentioned how many he already had he stated that "this one smells the best - it's like real pineapple!" Last week he opened your Clearly Hawaiian Pineapple soap and I haven't heard the end of since - and yes, I most heartily agree. You have the best soaps!!!

There are some good Lilo & Grub bootloader Howtos in the Tutorial sections here, be sure to read those.
If you use Lilo as the bootloader, you would have to add it to MBR and it should pick XP as another OS to add to it during installation of Debian. Grub should pick it up also, but not sure if Grub is included with 2.2.
If you want to use NTLDR as the bootloader here is a link on how to do it.
Of course, I've never done it using two different hard drives, personally, so If something is wrong, someone else can explain better.

On December 13, 2001, Abiomed, a medical technology company, posted a press release on their Web site announcing the death of a second AbioCor™ artificial heart recipient. This announcement came just thirteen days after the announcement that the first patient enrolled in the AbioCor™ clinical trial had died. It is with sincere sadness that we convey our sympathy to those families that are mourning the loss of these two individuals. In light of these heart-rending events, however, it is important for us to contemplate the bigger picture. Can man make a replacement heart that works, and if not, why not? The quest to design and manufacture an artificial heart started during World War II. During this period, medics often were called upon to remove shell fragments from soldiers, and a value suddenly was placed on a heart replacement.
There have been many attempts to create an artificial heart—the most famous being the Jarvik-7. However, patients receiving these artificial hearts all suffered from numerous complications (hemorrhage, stroke, sepsis, etc.). In addition, patients were forced to live a severely restricted lifestyle. The latest attempt is the AbioCor™ Implantable Replacement Heart, which is fabricated from plastic and titanium and weighs less than 2 pounds.
Considering the millions of dollars spent to produce this new artificial heart, and the countless hours of research and development that were required, one would expect that this device would be nothing less than a state-of-the-art wonder! However, Robert Tools, the first patient to receive an AbioCor™ heart, lived only 151 days. The person who received the fourth implant survived only 56 days. Why is this the case? Haven't evolutionists frequently reminded us that humans "evolved" over millions of years from an amoeba-like creature? If the human heart is merely another product of the naturalistic process of organic evolution (which, by definition, has no direction or intelligent design behind it), then humans (who can direct and design intricate processes) shouldn't have any problem recreating it, should they? Yet millions of dollars, and countless hours of intense effort by hundreds of highly trained researchers, have been able to extend human life only a hundred days or so?! Could it be that we have not given God enough credit for His ability to design and create the amazing human body?

A New Triple Bottom Line
As we dive into the New Year and face up to the challenges ahead, I am reminded of the fundamental reason so many of us are working in this area. We came to do more good, though we often find most of our time is spent doing less harm.
CSR organizations are increasingly tasked to cover both.
And we will have to come up with new approaches to scale doing less harm and doing more good at the same time.
The Cost of Incrementalism
What is taking so long? Looking at just one aspect of CSR, corporate philanthropy, we see lack of results from scale — from the ReachScale site:
"Over the past forty years, over 200,000 nonprofits were established. Only 144 achieved budgets of 50 million (USD) or more. Of that group fewer than 15 were scaled through corporate financial contributions. In other words, corporate funding has scaled one nonprofit every three years."
Adding to the old answers to "What is taking so long?" are some new challenges:
First is the fragmentation of social responsibility activities in most companies. Executives talk about the need to track involvement in major issues (pensions, training, employee healthcare, etc.) as well as environmental impact (carbon, water, energy, packaging, etc.). But treated as individual issues, the solutions often receive inadequate attention for any comprehensive solutions.
This fragmentation problem is most extreme for companies who ignored externalities until recently and then just tacked on an external function to try to handle them. Doing what's right needs to be mainstreamed, and it all begins by comprehending what it means to "do less harm."
Unfortunately many companies fall victim to the equivalent of the mission creep that plagues the non-profit world. Creeping incrementalism in both environmental and philanthropic activities falls short in three ways:
– Essential focus and risk taking never happens, and under-resourced efforts yield inadequate progress.
– Instead of focusing on innovation and testing sustainable approaches, attention drifts to smaller and easier approaches and/or unsustainable activities (often with high visibility). As a result, real challenges—like measuring water risk without addressing water stewardship—are avoided altogether.
– Too many resources are spent communicating small wins and covering up a lack of progress. The focus on perception vs. reality becomes a resource sink and can actually do more harm.
Scaling "Do Less Harm"
Two years ago, Wal-mart began to scale its comprehensive supply chain initiatives. Many questioned the resource allocation and the criticality. Two years later, these new comprehensive mainstream models are being talked about as table stakes.
The genie is out of the bottle on these issues. These days the scorecards are being kept by a variety of independent monitoring organizations.
While some companies are still in denial, the smart corporate players are partnering with the scorekeepers to assist them in mainstreaming their "do less harm" commitments. The recent comprehensive fleet mileage targets agreement between the US Government and the global auto companies (highlighted in a recent editorial by Tom Friedman) represents an example of this trend that will continue across many ecosystems.
Scaling and mainstreaming "do less harm" is garnering much of the effort in the best companies. And as leaders see the positive benefits of this approach, the most innovative already realize that the same idea set should be applied to "do more good." They are also the first to see that the big problems can only be solved through a mix of both approaches along with a significant dose of innovation.
Scaling "Do More Good"
Here are three reasons why scaling "do more good" will have even more impact on creating virtuous cycles that support both better environmental stewardship and better economic growth. First, an example:
Many challenges exist around young people, learning, access for people at risk and education for the disadvantaged. One critical reason that youth are at risk and people lack access is disabilities. There are a broad range and most require donor driven approaches with limited sustainability.
One exception is hearing loss—an opportunity that can directly overcome the disability of 300 million people and over 180 million infants, children and young adults. As is often the case, these opportunities exist because of underserved markets and this is one of the largest underserved markets with 60 percent of 600 million people at risk, untouched, globally.
Access to the market has been created by a small team of innovators working over the past decade to invent the solar hearing aid. Solar Ear is already manufacturing in Botswana and Sao Paolo. Eventually there will be 10 manufacturing sites serving 60-70 countries, with low tariffs, and reaching millions of people that are not served by traditional companies. They are completing a deal for the distribution rights for Solar Ear in Brazil that will fund their third manufacturing line in China — and all the hearing aids and chargers are manufactured by deaf young adults.
Solar Ear and Howard Weinstein just won the Social Entrepreneur Award at the World Technology Summit, among many other recognitions.
From "License to Operate" to "License to Grow"
Social impact scaling that can demonstrate progress in meeting people's fundamental needs while making a modest profit is a new innovation. With an ethics-based marketing model instead of interruption-based one, new opportunities emerge. As corporate strategy guru Michael Porter pointed out in "Strategy and Society," a Harvard Business Review article he coauthored with Mark Kramer:
"No business can solve all of society's problems or bear the cost of doing so. Instead, each company must select issues that intersect with its particular business. Other social agendas are best left to those companies in other industries, NGOs, or government institutions that are better positioned to address them. The essential test that should guide CSR is not whether a cause is worthy but whether it presents an opportunity to create shared value – that is, a meaningful benefit for society that is also valuable to the business."
Other examples include Healthpoint Services (see this article on exceptional scale) and Lifespring Hospitals, operating in rural India, are two examples of a license to operate that has evolved into a license to grow. Arogya Parivar (AP), an innovative outreach by Novartis India is another example. (AP received a prestigious award for "Best long-term rural marketing initiative" from the Rural Marketing Association of India.)
Increasingly companies will recognize that it is not enough to do less harm. A license to grow demands more vision and more impact. It also requires building ecosystems and innovation models that can turn problems into profits.
Reputation based on Results
Donations and volunteer hours are no longer newsworthy unless presented in the context of strategic commitments to solve real problems.
Forward thinking companies like Nike and Timberland admit openly that they know their businesses are not currently environmentally friendly. Going forward they need to drive innovation to drastically change their businesses. In the future we cannot produce products like T-shirts in the environmentally damaging way we do it today.
Going forward, companies will not be able to protect and preserve their reputations through "pretty pictures" CSR. Instead they will need to identify an appropriately big problem and then demonstrate measurable results towards a solution.
Return on Investment
What is new with ROI in the sustainable impact world is how it is achieved. In the past the corporation's core business produced the returns with a small percentage of the profits allocated to cost centers including CSR and philanthropy. Increasingly global companies see how the most pressing problems that seemed to be intractable resource sinks can be, with appropriate innovation and collaboration, profit producing. For example, General Electric's global business strategy now centers on two critical challenges: healthcare and energy.
Achieving profit through social innovation and collaboration requires new partners that are assembled from all over the globe. These partnerships are generating profitable and sustainable innovations by offering products at price points that a large segment of the pyramid can afford. Ideally these solutions are marketable because they also result in behavior change. The creation of delivery systems for clean water to rural villages is an example of a rapid behavior-change solution.
The reputational value of sustainable solutions can attract multiple sources of capital. As you watch the social investment announcements in 2012, you will increasingly see strange bedfellows clasping hands and acting together to drive integrated social and monetary returns.
This new triple bottom line leverages strategic and brand resources within the corporation with highly innovative social enterprises. By combining social impact, enhanced reputation and a return on investment in this way, the whole becomes significantly greater than its parts.

Android texting application Swype has been in the design phase for awhile, but its beta shows it has evolved into a sophisticated next-generation app with four-in-one keyboard and voice capabilities.
Chief among the app's redesign is the option of using one of four kinds of keyboards: traditional letter-to-letter swiping, while adding the ability to type with predictive text input, use an integrated Dragon button to speak the text, or rely on the old peck-and-hunt one-finger motion. Users can swap between any of the modes limitlessly.
Swype's new features also include next-word prediction that allows the app to build on historical usage, compiling every word a user enters in emails, texts, or other posts. Swype's 55 language downloads allow users to communicate in any language they can speak. Swype can be installed on all Android based cell phones including the Samsung Galaxy S3, Samsung Galaxy S2 as well as HTC One X and Motorola Droid Razr
According to Michael Thompson, EVP and general manager for Nuance Mobile (the speech-recognition software building company that acquired Swype last October), "People use their keyboards every day in every way — so input needs to be fast and simple. The new Swype living, learning keyboard users in a new era of input, where the keyboard adapts to the user's unique way of communicating every time they swype, speak, tap, or write."
The Swype Beta for Android is available for download via beta.swype.com. There's also an SDK for other operating systems.

Comments about Patagonia Capilene 2 Lightweight Crew (Men's):
Knew it was meant to fit as a tight base layer, so went up a size to wear as a loose base or properly fitting mid. Know that capilene has come a long way, but still holds a smell more than i'd like after a few wears. All in all, would absolutely buy again when more go on sale. Love it, but can't justify the price at full.

Comments about Patagonia Capilene 2 Lightweight Crew (Men's):
I wear this top about four days a week and definitely when the temperature is cold in the morning and then a mild warmer change during the day, I like to use a top over a dri-fit tee and then layer a windproof jacket over the capilene. It is also excellent for very cold days even down into the twenties as a base layer for heavier jackets and down. This top is also great for an early fall hike as it is warm enough for the cool mornings and yet light enough not a weight down your day pack.

Hi everyone...
My name is Paul and I live in the Minneapolis, MN area. I am a tele-commuter for one of the "Large Banks" doing Residential Real Estate appraisal review after closing my appraisal company I ran for several years. We have pretty much raised 4 kids as we only have a Jr. and Sr in high school remaining. With me working from home and my wife having summers off due to her work at a local Jr. High School, we recently decided to foster a shelter dog. It had been 10 years without a dog since we had 4 kids in traveling hockey for several years. We saw Izzy on the shelters web site but it said she was already being fostered. We contacted the shelter to see if we could foster a dog similar to Izzy and found out she was actually living with the shelter owners in the house. We met her, fell in love and agreed to foster her. After a month (and one family vist with folks that could not have handled the demands of a dog like Izzy) we decided we could not let her go and formally adopted her. She had a long journey getting to her forever home with us apparently traveling from St Louis, MO to the shelter in Wisconsin that we adopted her from before finding her home her in Minnesota. She now lives with me, my wife, my daughter and youngest son oh... and our 10 year old Snow Bengal LeMew! (That has been a challenge, but working now after about 3 months of living together.)
Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself and Izzy, our newly adopted girl!
Here is Izzy after trying for a couple days to figure out the Cat tower, she finally did to meet LeMew!
