BEIJING (Caixin Online) — Obama won reelection despite a high unemployment rate, declining average incomes and skyrocketing government debt because voters blamed his predecessor for the economic problems and didn't trust his opponent, Mitt Romney.
Even though the economy has improved somewhat in the past three years, the United States' situation remains dire: the poverty rate is at a historic high of 15%; middle class income is back to the 1995 level and wealth to 1983; the unemployed who find jobs end up with significantly lower pay than at their prior employment; and the combined local and federal government deficit at 9.5% of gross domestic product and debt stock at 120% of GDP.
The Republican Party put up a strange candidate to run against Obama. Romney is a former private equity person. So soon after a financial crisis caused by people like him, it seemed an odd choice, even though he was not one of the crooks responsible.
His background just didn't pass the smell test. The contest was so close towards the end because Obama screwed up in the first debate.
Caixin is a Beijing-based media group dedicated to providing high-quality and authoritative financial and business news and information through periodicals, online and TV/video programs.
• Get the Caixin e-newsletter
The role of the government was the issue during the contest. The Republicans campaigned on shrinking the government, the Democrats on a caring government. The election result, however, didn't give a clear verdict on the issue.
On the surface, the election kept the status quo: the Democrats kept the White House and Senate, the Republicans the House. The undercurrents suggest a country much more divided than before.
Romney won the traditional Republican states that are poorer than the national average and are net beneficiaries of Federal tax dollars. Voting for a smaller government is hardly in their best interest. Also, he won among the older population who are more dependent on Medicare and Social Security. Voting for a smaller government is hardly in their interest, either.
This election was more about race than anything else. Romney won 70% of the white vote. Obama won over 90% of the black vote and over 70% of the Hispanic and Asian vote.
The United States is amidst a profound transition towards a multi-ethnic and multi-religious society. In its first two centuries, the country absorbed mostly Europeans. Hispanics and Asians are now the fastest growing groups in the country. The Roman Empire first gave citizenship to other Italians and eventually to the people within the empire. What's going on in the United States is similar to the second stage of Roman integration. The future of the United States depends on whether the existing majority accepts this change and whether the newcomers are additive to the system, not subtractive. The answer to both remains uncertain.
The tilt of the Asian vote toward Obama demonstrates the importance of race in this election. In 1992, Bill Clinton won only 31% of the Asian vote. Asian-Americans have relatively high incomes and are least dependent on government help. They should be a natural constituency of small government Republicans. That they are not shows that the raison d'être of Republican Party is not economics anymore.
The party is a coalition of business interests who want low taxes and fewer regulations and evangelical Christian voters. The latter block delivered all states Romney won. It shows what's important in the Republican Party.
As demography tilts further toward the Obama coalition, the Republican Party can compete by becoming more like the Democrats or shift to extremist tactics. I'm afraid the latter is more likely.
A conservative democracy
The American democratic system is designed to slow, but not prevent change.
In the 2012, general election, the Democrats actually won more votes than the Republicans in the elections for the House. But the Republicans retain a comfortable majority there. The reason is that the seats are contested one at a time within a district. The majority party at the state level can redraw the district to make the election more favorable to it.
President Obama pardons turkeys for Thanksgiving
President Obama pardoned a turkey on Wednesday, and for the first time, the public voted on which turkey should get the presidential pardon.
In theory, 26% of the voters could elect a majority in the congress or a president. Of course, it is statistically difficult. But, the system gives incumbents an advantage to overcome a majority. It prevents a temporary and irrational flare up in popular sentiment to change the political system and damage the country. If the popular sentiment is lasting, the system eventually conforms to the will of the people.
In addition to the checks and balances among the different branches of the elected government, an independent and appointed judiciary makes radical changes even more difficult.
A government that adopts change hastily could be struck down by a single judge. Even though the judiciary can sometimes spearhead change, like in abortion rights, it is by and large the most conservative branch of the government. Checks and balances and slowing but not resisting change are the secrets for the longevity of the United States' democratic system.
The Athenian democracy in the fifth century B.C. destroyed itself by allowing public anger to decimate its best and brightest. The Roman republic fell to first mob rule and then military dictatorship because the system concentrated too much power among vested interests that refused to address popular grievances.
The Weimar Republic gave way to Adolph Hitler's dictatorship because the system allowed total power handover to a party that won the most votes — not even the majority — and that power was not checked against by other branches of the government.
In two centuries, the United States abolished slavery and gave blacks, and eventually women, the right to vote. Now it is beginning the process of giving gays and lesbians the right to marry. Big problems in U.S. history have all taken a long time to resolve, but they do get resolved. The delay prolongs the pain for the affected, but avoids hasty and destructive change.
The United States is amidst a profound transition towards a multiethnic and multi-religious society. In its first two centuries, the country absorbed mostly Europeans. Hispanics and Asians are now the fastest growing groups in the country. The Roman Empire first gave citizenship to other Italians and eventually to the people within the empire.
What's going on in the United States is similar to the second stage of Roman integration. The future of the United States depends on whether the existing majority accepts this change and whether the newcomers are additive to the system, not subtractive. The answer to both remains uncertain.
The fiscal cliff
When raising the debt limit for the Federal government a few months ago, the two parties couldn't agree on how to address the deficit issue and just adopted conditions for another round of negotiations at the end of 2012. The conditions are that, if the two sides fail to agree, the Bush tax cuts, Obama's payroll tax cuts and other assistance programs, and some across-the-board spending cuts would automatically go into effect in 2013.

CrockPot Caramel Apples
Day 278.
My eldest turns seven today, which makes today her birthday, and my BirthDay.
I know you are told by everyone (and your mother) that kids grow up quickly and before you know it the early years will be a blur and a distant memory, but when you are in the trenches of the first few months/years of sleep deprivation and are functioning in survival mode----it just doesn't seem that way.
Now it does.
I see this kid, this real life KID, with big teeth, a big heart, and big ideas and I'm shocked. How did this happen?
Wasn't it just yesterday that I was walking the shag-green carpet halls of our apartment night after night after night jostling her to Nick at Nite theme songs?
Wasn't it just yesterday that I spent way-too-many hours with a baby that just would. not. sleep. precariously balanced on my lap while I consulted Dr. Google during marathon nursing sessions?
Hug your babies. And make them caramel apples. Don't pay attention to the caramel dripped on the carpet. It will come out with a baby wipe---or scissors.
The Ingredients.
--caramel candies. This time of year in the produce section, there should be bags of soft caramel complete with popsicle stick handles.
--apples (one bag of caramel makes 4 large apples)
--2 T water
The Directions.
Use a 1.5 quart or larger crockpot---I used a 4 quart.
Unwrap all of the caramel, and add them and 2 tablespoons of water to the crockpot. Cover and cook on high for 1 to 2 hours, checking every 20 minutes or so. The caramel is ready when it is shiny and can be stirred easily.
Put the popsicle sticks into the apples by the stems. Use a spoon to ladle the caramel over the apple, and swirl to completely cover the whole thing. Dip into chopped nuts or sprinkles if desired.
Let cool on parchment paper or Release foil.
The Verdict.
These are messy and sticky and absolutely wonderful. I am happy with the way the crockpot melts evenly, and it wasn't so hot I was scared about the kids helping.

I am a major lurker and look at your blog several times a week. I just loved this post - not only for the cool recipe but because it was a great reminder. My twins are almost 22 months - time is slipping by so quickly. I'm still up every night with one or the other of them. Ya - I complain about my sleep deprivation to anyone that will listen - but secretly, during those times, I cradle and hold them tight because I know this sweet time will pass before I know it.
Sending birthday wishes to your daughter :-)

Happy birthday to both of you! If you think seven is bad, just wait until she turns 15 like mine did Monday. She didn't ask for carmel apples, but I did let her tie dye with her friends at my kitchen table 8^O
We are going apple picking today and I will by using this recipe!

This post made me get tears in my eyes, and I don't even have kids. Someday I might, but I'm only 19. And I think it's impossible to not make a mess when eating a caramel apple. That's the beauty of them!

My son turns 14 in a week (sigh). I just showed him your caramel apple picture today and asked if he wanted to make these because he loves caramel apples, & so do I. He smirked and said, I don't care (his typical response to anything I suggest these days). I looked at him and said, " I saw the twinkle in your wittle eye when you saw those caramel apples. We're going to make these today and I know you just can't wait......." To this, a sheepish grin crossed his face and he began to giggle. Then he walked back to his bedroom to save face but deep down inside I know he's salivating thinking of eating some yummy apples. Ah, teenagers. Happy birthday to your 7 year old, and you! Thanks for sharing the recipe.

I never would have thought of using the crockpot to make caramel apples....what a great idea. I usually make them from scratch.....caramel and all, once a year.
Enjoy all the moments with your children....my son is now 22 and daughter will be 16 in a few short months......I still wonder where the years went so fast!!!!
Happy Birthday to the Birthday Girl.....=)

These look so good! We used to make toffee apples as kids, and how we didn't burn ourselves I just don't know. I haven't made them for my kids yet cuz I'm a coward, but the slow cooker should make things a little less third-degree! Thanks!

Happy Birthday to your daughter and Happy BirthDay to you as well. My oldest just turned 14 on Tuesday with my youngest being 2½ and I know very well how fast that time passes. I haven't yet figured out how to keep from blinking so I don't miss anything.

Your post is wonderful. I love the photos with the little hands in them -- I loved the pic for the rice crispy treats with their little paws going for the marshmallows and the instructions stated something to the effect of "shoo the little hands away from the mini marshmallows." TOO CUTE!
- October 4, 2008 at 3:35 PM
Just wanted you to thank you for this blog. I'm going to be really unhappy when your 365 days are up. (Any plans for the future!?)
I made your flank steak with feta and apples yesterday and my husband and I agreed that it may be our new favorite meal.

Hmmm....I never thought about my kid's birthdays being my BIRTHdays. Those days touch no one more than the mother. I don't care how old my kids get, I will never forget their birthdays, minute by minute.
I also never thought about making caramel apples in my crockpot! I'll be doing this soon--yum!

Thanks for the wonderful reminder. I bought the package to make caramel apples 2 weeks ago and have been too busy to make them. This week, something less important gets dropped from the to-do list.
I enjoy your blog and promise to buy the cookbook when it comes out! I only found you a month or so ago, so please tell me you won't stop blogging when your 365 days are up!

Happy 7th B-day, to you both!
I am so glad to see this post! I found you about a week ago and you have already had a couple favorites of ours, via crockpot, that I have tried.
My son is 4 on the 10th and we always , always spend every sunday afternoon in the month of October at a make your own carmel apple spot in our town. We have our apples sliced and then the carmel laddled on. But now I have been inspired to make our own at home.
I am loving your resolve to make so many crockpot recipes! For a working mom- it is the answer to homemade meals!

Thank you so much for the recipe and for the message. My oldest is not quite 3.5 and my youngest just turned 10 months, and I've been struggling lately with the exhaustion of having such small children. You've encouraged me to enjoy this time more, despite the frustrations. And maybe we'll be picking up some extra apples today at the orchard to make a delicious caramelly mess. :)

Awww... you totally made me tear up.
My 2-year-old and husband are out apple picking as I type this. I'm going to walk to the store and pick up some caramels to surprise them when they come back. I'm not above caramel-coating apples to get them both to eat more fruit.

I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your website. It has really changed the way my family eats. As I was shopping yesterday
I noticed that Rice Chex is now Gluten-free. For all I know it could have always been gluten free but I thought this might be of some interest for you. They also have a whole web page of gluten free recipes. Maybe you could adapt some for the crock pot. http://www.chex.com/Recipes/CategoryView.aspx?CategoryId=447&t=5

Happy Birthday! I hear you about them growing too fast. My kids turned 13, 10 and 5 this year - I've been a bit tramatized! Who told them they could grow?! I was going to build some sort of cryogenic machine in the backyard and freeze them, but my son said he might get freezer burn... I told him I would double wrap, but he wasn't going for it... sigh....
Thanks for the great tip for caramel apple making. The using the stove/caramel cooling down too much thing is usually such a pain. I am doing this!
- October 7, 2008 at 4:52 AM
- Lori said...
Awesome idea! And I totally understand how you feel about your baby growing up...mine will be 10 next week! Double digits...YIKES!
- October 7, 2008 at 7:55 AM

They are so tempting that the hardest part will be waiting for the caramels to melt! At the moment, I am trying a ribs recipe in the crockpot - if it is good, I"ll pass it along :-)
- October 7, 2008 at 10:45 AM
- Shirley said...
I love this one, Stephanie. It's hard to resist caramel apples. ;-) Happy Birthday to you and your daughter! It does go incredibly fast, especially after those first few months (they were rough for us, too). My son will soon be 21!
I bet you could do this recipe using the crockpot, too. Ghosts made of white chocolate or candy coating on pears.
- October 7, 2008 at 7:07 PM
This is perfect for fall! Everyone has to have caramel apples at least once in the fall! I like to use milk instead of water. Doesn't make a lot of difference, maybe just a touch creamier. Love your site! Just found it! Hope I win a new crock pot, too! Kathleen sothman8@netinsdotnet

OH MY GOSH! This is great. You could totally do this at school in the classroom. I had never thought to use the crockpot. I can't wait to try this. My kids have never had carmel apples. Will be fun.
- October 9, 2008 at 5:38 PM

Happy birthday to her, and to you. My older daughter turned 7 on the same day. She loves to find people with her birthday, and will love this recipe, too!

loved this post, so sweet and I don't mean the apples!
my eldest will be 6 tomorrow, she wants a party where everyone makes caramel apples and so we are going to follow your lead and hook up the crock pot tomorrow...
I also wonder where this big kid came from? I love to tell her the story of her birth and today she looked right at me and said "Mom, I am getting to be so big!"

Hey Steph!
I am getting ready to make caramel apples today because we eat them at Rosh Hoshanah every year, and I remembered that you made these....I read through your post of your 7 (almost 8 now) little girl....sigh too....My little one is going to be 7 next february! How did this happen? That I have a first grader who writing and asking grown up kid questions and reading and drying dishes....thanks for everything!
- September 17, 2009 at 10:01 AM
As everyone has said--enjoy your children while you can--If you want a taste of how FAST years can fly by--not only did my kids grow up too fast but my grandson will be 13 years old in 2 short months !!

We made these for a little Halloween party we had the week before Halloween. They were gooey and messy and oh so yummy!
- November 6, 2009 at 10:58 AM
I NEVER thought to make these in the crock pot!! Thank you!! We made them by melting the caramels in a pan, and it was, horrible & messy. I dumped caramel on my hubby's hand a few times trying to coat the apples. THIS sounds much safer for everyone!! Also....the bit at the beginning......made me cry...I have an almost 12 year old and a 3 year old boys. I LOVE my babies!!
- April 4, 2010 at 5:20 PM

Yum! I am going to do these in a few weeks while camping! Since we have electric I will be able to leave the Carmel on there for a while! Thank you for the awesome idea!
- September 4, 2010 at 7:08 PM
- Susan said...
Have I told you that I love you? Thank you for your amazing recipes and often thoughtful insights. You are my port in the storm somedays! i can't wait to try these apples- my kids have been begging to make some because we didn't want to pay the local pumpkin patch 'mini-fair' prices, but I've been gun-shy for fear of burns. You're the best!

Roadrunner & Artist News
Disasterpieces - The Launch - Pt 1
Posted on February 12, 2008On November 1st in New York City, the Roadrunner US office led a 'Maggot March' to promote the upcoming Slipknot DVD.
For those who were not there, this was a spectacle which needs to be seen to be believed - hundreds of fans and industry folk in the Grand Ballroom of the Manhattan Center, all celebrating and watching the upcoming Slipknot 'Disasterpieces' DVD.
The atmosphere was a total carnival - hot dog, candy floss & popcorn stands, fire breathers, a man hammering nails up his nose, giveaways, a belly dancer, three bars (of course), and a bug eating chick. Clown, Paul, Chris, and Craig from Slipknot were present - all gathered on stage to introduce the DVD.
We present to you the first of a two part video installment showing this party to all who could not attend, and to those who wish to re-live the experience. WATCH IT HERE.
Did You Know? There was a maggot at the event by the name of Joe (dressed in the perfect Clown get up). Joe was the FIRST person in line that day, arriving at 5am. Joe has a (sic) tattoo on his right leg. All four members of Slipknot autographed the tattoo, as Joe had plans of turning the autographs into tattoos the very next day.
You can also check out the Slipknot Photo Gallery for a few pics from the night.

BUFFALO, NY - Since the moment Governor Andrew Cuomo signed the NY Safe Act into law in January, Erie County Sheriff Timothy Howard has made no secret of his opposition to it.
Now Howard has joined four other County Sheriffs in signing his name to a friend of the court brief, seeking to intervene on behalf of the New York State Rifle and Pistol Association, in its federal lawsuit seeking to strike the Safe Act down.
"When I was invited to this I didn't wait for a second to sign on," Howard told WGRZ-TV.
If granted friend of the court status, it would allow the Sheriffs to become a party to the suit, in the manner of providing information and testimony on behalf of the plaintiffs seeking an injunction against the implementation of aspects the Safe Act, toward their eventual goal to have them declared unconstitutional.
In their application, Howard and his fellow elected law enforcers call the Safe Act a violation of the second amendment, asserting that its provisions "decrease the ability of law abiding citizens to protect themselves in their own home" and are overly vague to the point of making them unenforceable.
Not that Howard planned to enforce them anyway:
"If you know this is wrong, and if you know it violates the constitution, then if you have any character at all you can't enforce it, Howard said.
Critics of his stance, however, might say Howard's job is to enforce the law, not to pick and choose which parts of it are palatable to him.
"To anyone who would say that, I say that their position means that we, the people, don't matter anymore and that just because we've elected someone to government, that they can do whatever they want."
Two On Your Side then asked Howard what's to stop him from deciding that if (for example) he didn't support DWI laws, might he not seek to enforce those either?
"That's a fair question," Howard replied. "But no one has a constitutional right to drive," before asserting that, as Sheriff, it is up to him as to decide where to direct the department's resources. "There's almost universal support for anti-DWI laws...by spending our time on DWI enforcement, we can make a difference. Spending time on that law (NY Safe) will not make the public one bit safer."
The mantle of enforcement for the Safe Act has seemingly fallen mostly on the New York State Police.
In an extensive interview with Channel 2 News one month ago, NY State Police Superintendent Joseph D'Amico expressed his belief that it is the responsibility of police to enforce laws passed by the state; unless and until the courts decide, they are unconstitutional.
"I don't think it's the role of any police officer or any police agency to interpert the laws as it relates to the constitution," D'Amico said.
"The constitution comes first," said Howard in explaining his belief aspects of the SAFE Act should stand the test of judicial scrutiny, before they are enforced.
Their comments underscore an apparently divergent viewpoint between the two law enforcement leaders, one appointed by the Governor, the other elected by the people.
Perhaps the only sanction Howard could face by choosing to not aggressively enforce NY Safe might be from the people who elect him.
And to those who might suggest his vocal opposition is politically motivated ( in year in which he seeks re-election in a county in which many are opposed to the Safe Act) Howard said, "people will say whatever they will...but the fact is I was one of the first to stand up in opposition to this when it was rammed through the state legislature without so much as a debate."

Bjørn Frank Jensen is a Danish animator. He has worked on Danish animation projects since the late 1930s, as a member of Jørgen Müller's animation studio at Gutenberghus Reklame Film in Copenhagen. Jensen was additionally doing some illustration work and cartooning in the 1940s, as well as the adventure comic 'De gæve Riddere' (1943) and the silent gag strip 'Lille Mille' (1944) in Højt Humør. His most notable work was however his contributions to the animation projects 'Fyrtøjet' ('The Tinderbox') and 'Grævlingen og harerne'.
He went to study at the Gaumont British Animation (GBA) in London for a half year in 1946. He opened his own animation studio with Børge Ring in the Hiort Lorentzensgade in Copenhagen in 1948. Together with Arne Rønde Christensen they eventually started their firm Ring, Frank & Rønde. The studios made several animations for advertising purposes, but had to close down in 1950-51.
Woodpeckers from Space
Jensen and Ring headed for Amsterdam, the Netherlands in the following year, where they found employment with the Marten Toonder Studios. The duo formed the core of the animation department together with their compatriot Per Lygum. Jensen remained with the studio until his retirement in 1985 and was animation director of the famous 'Bommel' film 'Als Je Begrijpt Wat Ik Bedoel' (1983). He also contributed to other films, including 'The Smurfs and the Magic Flute' (1976) and 'Asterix and Cleopatra' (1968).
Nop (Pep, 1973)
In addition to his animation work, he drew the shortlived comic strip 'Nop' in the magazine Pep (1972-73). He also drew about a dozen 'Big Bad Wolf' stories that the Toonder Studios produced for the Dutch Donald Duck weekly in 1965 and 1966. Another comic strip by Jensen was a promo-strip for Boni Records' 'Woodpeckers from space' single by Videokids in 1985. Jensen had also done the animation for the videoclip in cooperation with Frits Godhelp. Jensen passed away in Hilversum in September 2001.

Four killed in I-79 accident
Three Greene County teenagers were killed Tuesday afternoon in a multivehicle accident on Interstate 79 near the Ruff Creek exit. A fourth person, a motorcyclist from Canada, also was killed, and four others including three other area teens were injured.
The crash occurred when a sport utility vehicle driven by Cullin Frazer, 18, of Waynesburg, crossed the median and collided with a truck and then a motorcycle. State police said Frazier was killed as was Benjamin Hardy, 18, of Waynesburg, and Bryon Kerr, 18, of Carmichaels. Three other passengers in the SUV Justin Gillogly, 16, of Waynesburg, Thomas Miller, 16, of Waynesburg, and Justin Lilley, 18, of Waynesburg sustained minor injuries, police said.
A motorcyclist, Michael Cohen, of Oshawa, Ontario, also was pronounced dead at the scene. Cohens passenger, Sandra Cohen, also of Oshawa, suffered moderate injuries.
Physical evidence at the scene and statements from witnesses suggest that an SUV with six occupants had been traveling in a northerly direction and abruptly, and for an undetermined reason, crossed over the grass median of I-79, said state Trooper Barton Lemansky.
After crossing the median, the SUV descended a steep embankment into the southbound lane where it first struck a truck hauling hitch-camper before striking a motorcycle, Lemansky said.
He added on that particular section of I-79, the northbound lane is elevated from the southbound lane with a small mound separating the two. The SUV may?have become airborne before impact.
The circumstances that led to the accident are still under investigation, Lemansky said.
The four survivors were taken by helicopter to Ruby Memorial Hospital in Morgantown, W.Va.
The crash closed the southbound lanes for hours.
The crash happened about three miles north of the Ruff Creek exit at 4:34 p.m.
The vehicle towing the camper and the trailer itself suffered minor damage and the driver appeared to be uninjured.

Submission As nuclear reactors age, the money to close them lags ->
Harperdog writes: "A bit worrying, from the NYT: "The operators of 20 of the nation's aging nuclear reactors, including some whose licenses expire soon, have not saved nearly enough money for prompt and proper dismantling. If it turns out that they must close, the owners intend to let them sit like industrial relics for 20 to 60 years or even longer while interest accrues in the reactors' retirement accounts.""

The headline is a little shrill for the content of the article. This is perhaps the most sensible quote I've seen to date in the coverage of the 787's operational problems:
'"If I've got an unexplained source of smoke or smell and messages indicating an overheat or a fire has been detected, frankly, I'm not going to pull out the book," said veteran airline captain and aviation expert John Nance. "I'm just going to get the ship on the ground."'
Had a friend who was charging his RC battery in his garage almost lost the garage.
"Securaplane's main buildings were burned to the ground when a battery test went wrong"
what they don't say here is that "an investigation into that fire determined the cause was the set-up of the test, not the design of the battery or the charger."
looks like headline hunters strike again.
So, they are using batteries that they don't even know how to test properly?
it's so amazing how companies continue to push products through even though they have not been fully field tested and there are known problems with the product....I mean I am all for advancements in technology but whenever you pass any product along knowing that they have potentially fatal flaws it's just wrong....I have no doubt that the 787 is going to be a fine plane but I just think they should refit all of the delivered and soon to be finished planes with batteries that have already proven themselves to be reliable and safe.
The thing is that most users of such batteries don't care much about attached specs, which outline in a fine detail, how to charge it, what current, for how long, pulse, constant current, all curves of capacity loss and gain, etc. Too many times, I've seen people charging their AA NiMH with NiCD chargers, cause it's all just AA, isn't it?
I flew a Falcon 900ex with nicad batteries. I flying Orlando to UK. We had just joined the tracks east of Canada when we had a thermal runaway on one of the two batteries. Even after the battery was disconnected the temperature continued to rise. We diverted into St Johns. Three hours after landing the battery was still too hot to hold. It was bulging and distorted. If we had been further along the tracks I dont know what we would have done. Its alright having 3 engines but if you only have 2 batteries and one of those is a potential timebomb sat out of reach 60 feet behind you you are in queer street. The next aircraft we had was an exEasy with lead acid batteries. Felt much safer. Peter.
Only a thorough investigation into this new type of battery should determine the cause of the problem. Headline hunting news reporters should wait until this investigation has been completed and a report published before jumping to erroneous conclusions based on nothing more than their own uninformed conclusions. Scaring the public with wild speculation does a disservice to a respected aircraft manufacturer and those that are investigating the cause of these recent problems.
If you read the story, it is not the same battery that went into the 787. It was a claim by a "whistle blower" that had his claim of being fired because of the battery dismissed in court. At this time there to many stories with misleading headline.
In English this time. THIS IS NOT GOOD. I hope they get it solved quickly.
In any event, Boeing senior management needs to accept responsibility for this fiasco and some heads need to roll.
It's terribly hard to get a new component approved for installation into an existing airframe.
But the FAA & Boeing are playing around with this?!?
this battery issue reminds me of the new elt batteries (lithium) that came out in the eighties, the Feds came out with new ELT's and made us change all ELT's for the new ones equipped with lithium batteries. These batteries overheated, exploded, or caught fire in flight. One year later they came out with new ELT's equipped with normal batteries!!Seems that when they mention Lithium, there is a problem associated....Don't they make tests to make sure that they are safe and trouble free??I have changed all my Nicads for Lead acid.
history always repeats itself....go figure
So with the test in 06, why in the hell is Boeing using the battery, knowing that it would burn up. Seems kinda STUPID, not safe for a airplane, in my view.
So what are the other planes using. Ah, Pink Bunny...
read the actual article and you'll see the fire wasn't caused by a faulty-designed battery. Why on earth would Boeing risk the company's well being on a battery if it can fail THAT easily?
because they were probably free or really cheap....The company I work for gets free or reduced batteries and tires all of time....they just call them test tires or test batteries.
So burning question is - is this supplier involved in making batteries for other Boeing jets, or just for the 787?
YUSA makes all kinds of batterys I have one in my motorcycle which is a lead acid type so they might be but not the type that blew up or burned or whatever happened to it. By the way if you go on facebook and look at that type for model aircraft use there are vidios of the blowing up on the ground and in the air.
matt-- good pun.
Thanks. Still the question exists as to why Boeing would do this?
why would boeing do what? Li-ion batteries have been used for many years. And if you read the actual article, the fire wasn't caused by a faulty designed battery.
Trying to get honest answers about the batteries is like trying to get answers from Hillary Clinton . Lol
Same type of batterys have blown up in RC model aircraft long before that happened. Those people keep them in special bags called safes or metal containers. If you think I am kidding ask anyone who flys electric RC aircraft about them. Thats why I dont understand why Boeing is using them and why the big supprise that they failed.
I don't think it is exactly the same battery technology. The RC batteries that are prone to blowing up are LiPo (Lithium Polymer) batteries.
LiIon batteries were at the bottom of the Sony computer flap a few years ago. They wer catching fire in laptops while charging.
Also, Chevy Volt has a problem with this battery type.
Maybe Boeing should get their batteries from Toyota?? Prius' seem to be OK.
Prius uses Ni-MH batteries
Watched the interview today with NTSB. Sounded like Hillary . No answers but there on on it. Cme out and say there is a huge problem with no answer yet. Quit the dance, so we don't confuse you with politicians.
Overheat and resulting explosion of an A/C Battery, irrespective of Type or OEM, can also be caused by ay an installed Battery Charging Current Limiter as installed (BCCL) on some EADS Aircrafts or by an Aircraft Battery Charger (ABC) as intalled on other Manufacturers Planes. If the Battery is not adeqately protected against a Malfunctionaing of either BCCL/ABC, the installed Battery could cause considerable damabe. The Problem as I understand, was already detected but taken for serious enaugh. Hope, that the Aircraft Manufacturer involved will take proper action to avoid damage to the Aircrafts and the Passengers as well as our operating crew.
(Duplicate Squawk Submitted)
What's wrong with the Dreamliner?
The grounding of Boeing Dreamliners entered its second week with the company and investigators working non-stop in the United States and Japan to try to pinpoint fire risk in the 787 electrical system.
as far as I am informed, the A/c Batteries installed in the rear bay of B787, is overheating in service and thus causing, in worst case an Explosion. Boeing is working on isolation of the Battery compartment and directng the overheated gases out of cabin. Even if BAC is sucessful in finding a solution, a modification of that scale will require allest 90 days for implementation. Until this Mod carried out, the B787 is only allowed to c/out test flights under FAA directivess.
Initially, EADS planned to utilize the same batteries on A350. After the disaster with B787 Bateries, EADS is now looking for another solution I guess.
Hope I aws able to give some clue on the B787 Problem with the battery. My sugession is to overlook the problem of interaction between the Lithium Ion Battery and the Charger.

From Webmaster:Original thread starts here:
My own comments at the end of this thread - to save you the time and effort:
"It's not a case of agree or disagree - it's just wrong. It's pseudo-science, most people will just be baffled with the numbers and language and think it has some credence.
It does real science a dis-service and that matters to me.
I would no more give web-space to arguing about the earth being flat, that astology is real or creationism, no matter how many views it all received.
If you turn out to be proven right I will offer a full and open apology here. You will find an audience for your views on the web, but not here I'm afraid."

Energy and global warming
The current climate change/global warming debate has become highly political, with some people maintaining that the warming over the last 150 years is due to the enhanced greenhouse effect caused by anthropogenic emission of carbon dioxide and other gases from the burning of fossil fuels. However, there is some scientific opinion that the claimed increase in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is based on flawed data obtained from ice core measurements in samples from the Antarctic, with some alleged preferential selection of values having occurred, although this has been strongly disputed.
The principal argument for the enhanced greenhouse effect seems to be that climate models can be made to reproduce the observed warming only if the expected effects of the extra carbon dioxide are included in the models. If the carbon dioxide is removed, the models fail.
However, amid these claims and counter-claims, one fundamental consideration seems to have been omitted, and this is the effect of the vast amount of energy currently being generated by mankind. I believe that it is this energy itself which is causing the global warming. It is derived mainly from the chemical energy of fossil fuels, but whatever the source, the energy eventually ends up in the form of heat and as a change of state in melting ice into water.
Greenhouse gases are emitted, but this is simply a side effect which correlates with the amount of energy produced.
Energy consumption data was obtained from the website of the Energy Information Administration of the United States Department of Energy, which go back to 1970 and give figures for the whole world. From this data the quantity of ice which can currently be melted in one year is calculated to be 1200 Gigatons, where 1 Gigaton is one thousand million metric tons. This is about twice the amount estimated from practical observations for the whole world.
On the basis of a simple ?total energy? hypothesis, good agreement has been obtained with the reports of five sets of practical observations, namely the Arctic sea ice, the Greenland ice cap, the rise in temperature of the atmosphere in the Northern hemisphere, the melting of the Antarctic ice sheet, and the rise in temperature of the Antarctic troposphere. Further details can be provided if generally required.
No consideration has been given in this hypothesis to anthropogenic greenhouse gases and so no reduction of these gas emissions will be able to solve the problem of global warming, which, indeed, must be occurring as evidenced by the melting of the world?s ice.
It also follows that no benefit can be gained by switching to nuclear or geothermal energy because the problem is simply one of the very energy being produced by mankind.
Therefore, the only way to solve the global warming problem is by changing completely to the use of ?renewables?, solar energy, wind energy and possibly energy from the waves. Since this energy is not ?new energy?, its use does not add to the total world energy, and so has no net warming effect.

DALLAS — Cooper Bassett knows the college football world isn't paying much attention to his team or its game during this bowl season.
Doesn't matter to him.
DALLAS — Cooper Bassett knows the college football world isn't paying much attention to his team or its game during this bowl season.
Doesn't matter to him.
He's fired up to play Purdue in the Heart of Dallas Bowl. He's excited to wear the Oklahoma State uniform one last time.
"As football players, we train and prepare for 365 days," the senior defensive end said. "We only get 12 opportunities guaranteed a year.
"If you're lucky enough, you get a 13th game."
Few believe the Cowboys are lucky to be in this lowly bowl, but Bassett is one of those guys who doesn't care where they're playing or who they're facing. All that matters is that they're bowling.
Truth be told, it's players like Bassett who make bowls relevant.
Evidence grows that the bowls don't matter like they once did. There is a four-team playoff is on the horizon. There is an ever-growing number of teams going into bowls with interim coaches or coordinators. There is chatter that change may be coming to how bowls are organized and funded.
What keeps bowls going are the players and the fans who cheer them. They are the ones who care about these games.
And no one cares more than Cooper Bassett.
Last we saw him after an OSU game, he had been reduced to tears. The loss at Baylor and the Cowboys' two-game, late-season slide hit hard the hulking lineman.
But he didn't apologize for his emotions. That's just how much he loves playing college football.
More succinctly, it's how much he loves playing for OSU.
Bassett grew up a Cowboy fan. He bled so much orange that when his hometown of Tuttle gathered to celebrate Sooner star Jason White with a photo, the 13-year-old Cooper wore his Cowboy cap.

State Sen. Patricia A. Ritchie, R-Heuvelton, this week unveiled a plan called Grown in New York, a strategy to boost the states $5.2 billion agriculture industry.
Mrs. Ritchie, chairwoman of the Senate Agriculture Committee, said the plan developed by Senate Republicans is designed to increase the earnings of family farms, invest in the future of farming and expand markets for New York products.
The plan aims to reduce taxes and regulations, eliminate an energy tax surcharge, expand farmers markets and food hubs, get more New York-grown products in schools and government facilities, spur growth of the maple and wine industries, bring unused farmland back into production and improve farm safety.

It takes a whole community to prevent just one person from committing suicide.
That is the approach the Jefferson County Suicide Prevention Coalition and its partners have taken to help reduce the number of suicides in Jefferson County. As part of that, Jefferson Community Colleges Health and Wellness Center will host an inaugural Out of Darkness public 3-mile walk Sunday to raise awareness and money the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
We will not turn anyone away, said Kelli Fleming, walk chairwoman.
Mrs. Fleming said she became passionate about suicide prevention and awareness after she realized that although suicide is committed by one person, its ripple effects can flow to hundreds or thousands of people.
My teenage boys went to school with a girl who committed suicide, she said. I watched them cope and (lose) a really good friend. As a mom, it really tore my heart into pieces.
She and her human services professor, Katy E. Troester-Trate, have promoted the walk on campus to teach young adults there are other ways to cope with lifes stresses. A lot of students may be aware that JCC offers counseling, but may not make the first step to seek help if they are having suicidal thoughts, or even before that.
I thought if you could change one persons mind, youve done good, Mrs. Fleming said.
Timothy J. Ruetten, Jefferson County Department of Community Services coordinator of mental health services, said the coalition supports the Out of Darkness walk and is happy to serve as a central hub for suicide prevention and awareness.
(Before), we were getting gaps in suicide prevention work, he said. The coalition serves as that hub to make sure we never have an empty seat in training.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Fleming said, only about 20 people have preregistered for the walk, but people can show up the day of it. There is no specific entrance fee, but all proceeds will go to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
Registration begins at 9 a.m. Sunday in the McVean Center gymnasium lobby, and the walk will begin at 11 a.m. A closing ceremony will take place at 1 p.m. in the gymnasium.
For more information, call Mrs. Fleming at 558-1362, or visit the walks website, www.campuswalks.org.

Dr. Avezzano is a great doctor. the first time i went to him i was a little nervous because he was male and i was female (silly reasons) but my whole family had been seeing him for a while, and the second he started speaking to me he put me right at ease. i am young (24) and the first time i went, i was 20, and when i found out i needed a colonoscopy i totally freaked, but he took the time to explain it to me completely, even took out a diagram and a little fake colon and showed exactly what he would be doing. and then when i came in for the actual procedure he was very comforting as was the whole team of nursing and the anesthesiologist. 10 stars!!

I wish there was a higher number to rate than 5.. Dr. Avezzano and the entire staff at Bergen Gastro are phenomenal. Dr. Avezzano spent a lot of time with me at consultation, answered all of my questions and addressed my concerns. During the exam he took the time to explain everything he was doing. When I had a procedure done in his office, Dr. Avezzano, the nurses and anesthesiologist were wonderful and made me feel very comfortable. Every single person I have spoken to at his office - front desk, billing, scheduling, procedures - has been very professional and very caring. I know I am in good hands here - he is a great and compassionate doctor with a wonderful staff.

Dr. Avezzano is the most caring Dr.! He takes time to listen and never rushes you. I go with a list of questions and he is always glad to answer each one. He explains things fully and is very knowledgeable. He is also kind, friendly and compassionate. His staff is always extremely nice and helpful.

Dr. Avezzano is very caring doctor who is willing to give of his time to answer all of your questions without rushing through the visit. He is a doctor who listens well and is aggressive in treating the problem without delay. I would highly recommend this specialty doctor to family and friends.
