Below is just a brief extract from the latest Market Report. An extract will be offered on wine-pages as soon as it is published each month, but for the full report and Liv-Ex's extensive services, sign-up with them at www.liv-ex.com
Liv-Ex Market Report
by Liv-ex.com, August 2005
Activity in August was steady with all regions and vintages in play. The en-primeur hangover of July seemed to have cleared as merchants engaged in what they do best- trading wine! The UK trade in particular was in a buoyant mood (between overs). Turnover was up 10% month on month and 7% year on year. Stock held by the leading UK merchants fell 6.3% while the Liv-ex 100 rose a robust 3.3% for the month..
Breaking down August's trade by region, we saw Bordeaux inch back up toward its 2004 average and Burgundy continue from where it had left off in July, while Champagne bubbled. The Burgundy trade was centred round the top growers of 2002. There seems no end to the demand for this highly rated vintage. It is as though 2003 never happened.
(more analysis by region and tables in the full report)
Major Movers
The table below shows the major movers, month on month, in August. Perhaps the most interesting point of note, are the relatively small moves to the downside. This is the result of the strong demand (SIPPS?) that is emerging for top wines, r educing concern amongst merchants and negociants as regards their overall stock levels.
(the featured wines are analysed in detail in full report)
Critical Corner

It seems it was only yesterday that we were taking an in-depth look at Bordeaux 2004 and yet all the chat now is about 2005. Harvesting has just begun in the Médoc (Léoville Barton on Tuesday and Cos d'Estournel on Thursday), but has already concluded at Haut Brion, where picking began at the end of August. James Suckling of The Wine Spectator visited Bordeaux last week and tasted Haut Brion where Jean Delmas (the recently retired head winemaker and a man whose career in wine has spanned 60 years) said that he had never seen such wonderful grapes in his career. The normally restrained Christian Moueix, owner of Château Petrus, was quoted in Decanter, as saying: "The grapes are impeccable. I have seen nothing like this in many years." We have been in Bordeaux over the last week and visited some of the Châteaux, spoken to the producers and also the négociants. Whilst it is true that the Bordelais rarely talk down a vintage, there is a serious belief that 2005 could be exceptional. This is probably best highlighted by their indifference when talking about the 2005 prospects - a sure fire sign that something very special is in the making!
(more in the full report)
Final Thought
The arrival of Yquem 2001 has started something of a frenzy. The 2001 vintage is certainly the best from Sauternes in a generation and Yquem made one of the all time greats. There has already been huge interest in 2001 Sauternes. Other top rated 2001s like Climens (RP 100), Rieussec (RP 99) and Suduiraut (RP 98) have been amongst the biggest price risers (up by between 2-3x) over the past two years.
These wines are all already more expensive than any stock available in the last 25 vintages. For this reason, Yquem 2001 is likely to open at a stratospheric level and then get more expensive.

Several dozen Wolf Pack fans gathered outside of Meadowood Mall early Friday morning in hopes of winning a free pair of tickets to the Nevada-Boise Game.
Silver and Blue Outfitters was offering the tickets as part of a store raffle where $100 in clothing had to be purchased.
A time limit was set to sign up, and then those who wanted to win, waited for the their name to be called.
As luck would have it, no more than 50 people participated.
That meant that everyone who signed up and showed up won a pair of tickets.
No doubt they'll be cheering on the Pack tonight, in their silver and blue attire,
The game has been sold out for several weeks.
No one with a Boise I.D was able to participate.

Sci-Fi TV Shows that you're pretty sure only you watched.

Re: Sci-Fi TV Shows that you're pretty sure only you watched.
Thing is, going back to the OP, Fantastic Journey, Man from Atlantis and Invisible Man all got run on UK TV, and Fantastic Journey ran about three times on the BBC (mostly in the mornings during school holidays). So I'd guess that anyone in the UK of about 40 to 45 with any sort of childhood interest in SF probably remembers that a lot better than many of the non-hit SF series of the last 20-odd years. Even though they'd be hard pressed to name any of the characters ("There was the guy from the future, the sneaky treacherous doctor, the girl from Atlantis who had a cat but kept on disappearing from one episode to another... oh, and the kid. The one who got killed in that Trek film. the really good one.")
Oh, and Christopher: adding another couple of British kids SF series to your multi-season list - Into the Labyrinth (included episodes by Robert Holmes, Bob Baker and Christopher Priest) and The Tomorrow People.
"Some days are better than others. They say that where I come from."
"Loudly, I imagine, on the day you left."

When I try to add ammo initially it will show 9999 rounds but after I reload once it goes back to whatever the default number of ammo I would normally have. Same thing happens with the grenades at times. It will show 99 grenades but after I throw two sometimes it'll register 0 afterwards.
Please please try to fix this

Sponsor Me
First lemme start off by saying this isn't a thread so I can get sponsored...its just pretty much comparing my last year's sponsor-me video to my season edit from this year. Just wanted to see is everyone was happy with my part from this year seeing as I spent a little more time filming this year.
Last year's:
Max Lyons Snowboard Sponsor Me 2010-2011 - YouTube
This year's:
Max Lyons 2011-2012 Snowboarding - YouTube
I would like to thank my sponsors Invasion Boardshop, Planet Earth Clothing, MSA, and Maple Apparel
OH MY GOSH! Its finally here. I have been waiting soooo long for this years video. :eek:. I am so so happy with it.
Good job getting out there. Your video is much beter this year.
I'm not into competitions and what-not nor at this level of my own riding.
I can see the next level in your riding. Your upper body is much more quiet, your tricks are locked in better, your balance seems to have improved.
For me this was good to watch to help me in my progression of my park riding.
As usual I wish our park was 1/2 as good as what I see in many of these videos.
You're ready for Yobeats Rejected Edits!
super quick bump...also need advice.
over the next week or so i'm going to be burning dvd's with my edit and results, just wondering how i should go about sending them to companies..what i'm thinking is companies i want to get sponsored by first, then wait a week, see if they answer me, continue, etc.
also anything any of you guys see wrong/not flowy in the edit? certain tricks that didn't fit, this part sucked, song sucked, anything like that? i suppose a general public opinion is better than my own so i just wanted to see what everyone thought..and as always thanks for watching and critiquing

Partly due to Glasgow's colonial links with the subcontinent, and partly due to the Scots love of fire in their belly, an Indian curry is by far and away most Glaswegians idea of the perfect meal. Be it from the local takeaway on a Saturday night or a mid-week curry fix at one of the city's gourmet Indian restaurants, Glaswegians are as happy with a poppadum and pakora as they are with a pie and a pint. Yet a renaissance is underway – the popular flavour of the month is that the city's chefs are rediscovering their love of home-cooked Scottish food, oats and all, so don't be surprised to see plenty of local treats on the menu. Scots tend to eat earlier than their continental counterparts – but not because of a lack of late night appetite. It pays to line the stomach before the proper business of having a right good drink.
Over the past 15 years I've chewed my way through enough haggis and black pudding suppers to give even the Loch Ness monster heartburn. I know the best cafés, I've discovered the cheapest takeaways, I've savoured the best a la carte experiences, and I have held back the tears when seeing the resultant bills.
In today's award-winning steak houses and Scottish seafood bistros, local produce is at the heart of the Glasgow kitchen and dishes are cooked up with an equal measure of seasoning and spicy local humour. In my student days I eagerly ate at cheap cafés and takeaway joints but I now feel equally at home amongst the city's more refined establishments where there is rarely a baked bean or Pot Noodle in sight.
As Scotland's cultural melting pot, Glasgow has a distinctly international larder showcasing the best of European gastronomy (French, Greek, Italian and Spanish), the most delectable noodles and teppanyakis from the Far East (Chinese, Japanese and Thai), and flavours from Mexico, Mongolia, Russia and Turkey. I've tried to engage this appetite for new cuisines by including as diverse a range as possible. Of course, curry is king in Glasgow, so if you want to eat where the locals go, take your pick from hundreds of Bangladeshi curries, Sri Lankan hotpots and Indian tandooris.

Oh, and loneliness. But seeing how all of you are makes me feel less lonely. But since I don't know any of you in real life(Heck, I'm too lazy to even post here that I don't even know any you of in MT) I feel lonely again.
Oh, and also constantly contradicting/criticizing/justifying anything I just think of or think of doing. That's a character flaw, right? Not? Maybe?

FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. (AP) - About 20-thousand soldiers with the 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell came home last fall.
Now, nine months later, there's a baby boom at the post.
The military hospital at Fort Campbell expects to deliver 210 babies soon, nearly twice the usual number of deliveries. And more are expected at other nearby hospitals in Tennessee and Kentucky.
A temporary increase in births is not uncommon after soldiers return, but the boom this year is the biggest the post has seen in decades.
In the Fort Campbell hospital's busy maternity waiting room, many new mothers do not even seem to notice when Brahms' lullaby starts playing over the public address system - the signal that another baby has just been born.
It's played about seven times a day.

SteamOS 'Alchemist' Enters Public Beta
Perhaps no other single Linux distribution release in recent memory has caught the attention of more people than Valve's Steam OS
SteamOS was first hinted at in the summer and is now a public beta codenamed 'Alchemist', available in a free download letting users see first hand the future of Linux gaming.
Instead of leveraging Ubuntu as its foundation, Valve developers have decided to go upstream. The initial SteamOS release is based on Debian Wheezy and is mostly an open-source operating system
"SteamOS Beta ships with our Steam Client program, which is proprietary software, in addition to proprietary 3rd party drivers," the SteamOS FAQstates. "In the SteamOS Beta standard configuration, the Steam Client program serves as a user interface and provides connectivity to our Steam online services. That being said, you can still access standard Linux desktop."
Valve developers have also opted to got with the Linux 3.10 kernel longterm branch instead of the Linux 3.2 kernel that typically is part of Debian Wheezy. As is to be expected from a graphics intensive operating system, Valve also has its own custom graphics compositor in SteamOS. As well the system is set to auto-update from the Valve SteamOS repositories.
At the outset for Beta users the pace of updates is likely to be fast and furious with updates that could be coming on a daily or weekly basis initially. Valve notes in its FAQ that it is still evaluating what the best release cadence will be for SteamOS.
The initial Alchemist release requires an NVIDIA graphics card as well as UEFI boot support on the system motherboard. Valve expects to have AMD and Intel graphics support at some point in the near future.
Valve co-founder bolded declared during the LinuxCon USA 2013 event that Linux is the future of gaming and with SteamOS, he's made a concrete step on delivery on that promise.

CS First Boston upgraded Steiner Leisure (STNR) to strong buy from hold.
Analyst Scott Barry says the company recently made two acquisitions, transforming Steiner into a potential market leader in the spa services business. He says he visited some
sites, met with management, and thinks the company has the platform to address the $6 billion market opportunity in the U.S. alone.
Barry notes the market is highly fragmented and devoid of any brands with scale. Therefore, he thinks Steiner can execute successfully against that market. Barry sees $1.45 2001 EPS, and $1.80 2002 EPS. He set a $35 target.

What It All Means
The idea which the universe is regularly growing has constantly overwhelmed me. Knowing how big the solar program is, it's difficult to understand which even the massive solar program occupies a minuscule corner of the much bigger area (for shortage of the greater word).
However, I'm beginning to consider which the Internet is growing quicker than the universe. The amount of time, resources, plus $ entering creating, monetizing, marketing, examining, plus any alternative -ing you are able to think of, being invested about Internet content daily is staggering. The statistics above show not just an astonishing amount of existing content available, however, point to huge development plus expansion, about a close continual basis.
How do you create sense of it all? First you should eliminate certain outliers. The most of the statistics indexed above exist inside places online which are individual or private, element of social networks which firms cannot plus cannot have access too.
Even the private content informs you a some details. First, these websites are extremely common. Even when individuals are going about Facebook plus Flickr to consider marriage images or communicate with their neighbors, you will capitalize about which presence. Targeted advertising about social media websites is efficient, however, not enough.
The alternative thing which these statistics tell you is the fact that persons are engaging with content online. Commenting, reposting, sharing, creating, folks are associated inside the conversation. By creating advertising tips which contain calls to action plus provide customers benefits when they are doing thus accomplishes numerous elements. We extend the amount of time which advertising information remains inside front of the target. We create brand loyalty, plus you turn every customer into an recommend of the brand. If I purchase a Groupon, it gets posted about my Facebook page plus Twitter feed. I'm simultaneously a customer along with a promoter.
We today understand which social media websites are huge, frequently growing, accessible from mobile equipment, plus being seriously advertised about. We furthermore recognize which the need for mobile web access has forced mobile device sales before desktop computer sales. It no longer issues when targeted customers are sitting at a desk inside an workplace inside Manhattan, riding inside a truck inside a cornfield inside Iowa, or about a train crossing the Swiss Alps, you could reach them.
Marketing techniques have to use these cars plus discover targets like smart bombs. We learn where folks are, thus how do you receive there. Banner advertising, Facebook advertisments, Twitter hashtags, YouTube movie advertisments, they all piggyback found on the sites you learn folks may see.
However, when you may take a step further, plus supply incentives for the clients to recommend you, the advertising plus the shoppers are swept up inside the huge ocean of social media, bouncing between websites plus equipment, plus function for you, 24 hours a day, at a fraction of the expense of conventional targeted media purchases.
Instead of being overwhelmed by the explosive development of web content, let's create it function for you.

MYERSTOWN - Borough Council Tuesday approved a preliminary spending plan for 2013 of $1,075,130.
That amount includes a planned expenditure of $180,872 for bridge repairs.
Council Vice President Gloria Ebling said the budget will require no tax hike.
Acting on advice of solicitor Frederick Wolf, council agreed to wait until information is received from the county on adjusted property values as a result of the recent county-wide reassessment and establish a new tax millage rate at the regular December meeting. Council will also formally adopt the budget at that meeting.
In unrelated business, Mayor Tom Lush reported there were several minor incidents of arson in the borough recently. Vandals destroyed a portable toilet in the recreation park by building a fire inside of it. They also tried to start small piles of wood on fire in the park and attempted to set a fire at the rest rooms in the pool building.
"We have a description of possible suspects," said Lush. "They are the Laurel and Hardy arsons. One is tall and thin, the other is short and heavy. And both wore black, hooded sweatshirts."
Lush said there were also seven vehicles entered by thieves during the past month. Among the loot taken by the criminals were two rifles, a pistol and an archery bow valued at $1,000. None of the entered vehicles were locked, said the mayor.
Myerstown police officer Mel Hemperly said several cars were also entered recently in Jackson Township and Richland and advised citizens to keep their vehicles locked and homes secured.
In other business, Wolf reported a letter has been sent to all owners of properties near the Deck Airport affected by the new Airport Hazard Zone Ordinance. The mailings explain the restrictions dictated by the ordinance.
He also said he will be filing eight to 10 liens on properties as a result of unpaid water or sewer bills.
Council is looking for a someone to serve on the Greater Lebanon Refuse Authority. Interested residents should contact the borough office.
Council approved a request from the Woman's Club of Myerstown to block off streets to hold its annual chorus sing on Nov. 24 at 6:30 p.m. at West Main Avenue and Locust Street.
Ebling commended borough manager Eric Powell for his efforts to have an emergency plan in place when Hurricane Sandy threatened this area.

With their eyes focused on this weekend, Spring Grove pushed past Southwestern York, 4-0, in a game that took two days to complete.
Spring Grove will play Glen Rock tonight for the York County American Legion championship at 5:45 p.m. at Spring Grove High School.
Spring has already qualified for the American Legion regional tournament, which starts on Saturday. Therefore, winning the York County championship will only add another nice banner to the Spring Grove mantle, but it will not improve its seeding in the region.
Still, with the opponent in the semifinals being Southwestern York, it added a little extra motivation for Spring Grove.
"It's all just a tune-up for Saturday," Spring Grove's Levi Krause said. "If you win the first game in regionals, you can set up your pitching and still have two games to lose. Of course, if we win (the York County) championship, it's another plus."
Krause started the game on the mound for the Rockets, and pitched two scoreless innings on Monday before the thunder and lightning.
He returned today and threw three more scoreless innings on just 42 pitches.
It was the third straight day on the mount for Krause.
"Yeah, he's a rubber arm," Spring Grove head coach Sam Becker said of Krause. "I was debating bringing him back today, I want him ready for regionals."
Krause, who got rocked in a short outing against Glen Rock on Sunday, gave up just two hits against Southwestern York.
The only hit that left the infield was a double off the bat of Deji Andrew in the fifth.
"It helped that I didn't throw a lot of pitches (on Sunday)," Krause said. "I definitely wanted redemption, I threw awful against Glen Rock. It felt great to only give up two hits and get back to pitching the way I know I can."
Krause opened the scoring on Monday with an RBI double in the first inning.
The hit seemed to signal the rain, because soon after the skies opened. The teams battled on through the second inning in a constant rain.
In the bottom of the second, South Western starter Chris Mills recorded the first two outs.
Then, Spring Grove's No. 9 hitter, Logan Warner, ignited a rally with an opposite-field, ground-ball single.
Devin Fisher walked. Then Nick Spangler reached out and whacked a 2-2 pitch down the right-field line.
As the rain poured, the ball rolled all the way to the fence.
Both runners scored easily, and Spangler made it to third without a throw.
"Nick's been hitting the ball, seeing it well," Becker said. "He got a high, outside pitch and drove it down the line. Huge hit for us."
"If you get the ball up to hitters like Spangler and Krause, you're going to pay for it," Southwestern York head coach Dave Wade said.
Krause struck out, and he would be the last batter for nearly 24 hours.
On Tuesday, Mills and Krause matched each other almost pitch for pitch.
Mills battled out of a pair of jams with two runners on and no outs, allowing only a single run to score in the fourth on a balk.
Dalton Hoiles pitched the last two innings for Spring Grove.
"(South Western) high school baseball had a pretty rough season this year," Wade said. "We had expectations to turn that around and let the senior class leave on a winning note, and we did that."

Safety Eyewear
UW Superior Safety Eyewear Program
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that 1,000 eye injuries occur at work daily, primarily the result of flying particles and chemical contact with the eye. Most of the injuries occur because the no safety eyewear is in use at the time of the incident, or the wrong type of protective eyewear was in use.
In recognition that most eye injuries are preventable and in the interest of providing students, visitors and employees a safe and healthy workplace, UW-Superior has instituted this Protective Eyewear Policy. All departments and program areas at UW Superior will employ proper eye protection when and where it is warranted by the activities.
Through the implementation of this policy and the Safety Eyewear Program, UW Superior will:

CSS (Cascading Style Sheets)
This is the project page for WebKit's Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) implementation. CSS is a W3C specification, and WebKit has implemented virtually all of CSS1, most of CSS2.1 and even some CSS3. At this time we are focusing our efforts on completing CSS1 and CSS2.1 support. Some features of CSS3 are far enough along (like selectors) that they can be implemented safely as well.
Get Involved!View bugs in the CSS component in Bugzilla.
Here are some of the tasks that you can get involved with in CSS.
- Complete CSS1 Support
- Only a handful of CSS1 bugs remain, primarily with text-transform capitalize. Look for bugs that have been prefaced with "CSS1:" in the title. Complete support is measured by passing the CSS1 test suite.
- Finish CSS2.1 Support
- Most of CSS2.1 has been implemented in WebKit, but a few holes remain. The new white-space values
pre-lineare not yet supported. Some of these features have been implemented in the current KHTML tree, and a merge may be possible for some of these features.
- Finish CSS3 Selectors
- Many of the CSS3 selectors are already supported by WebKit, but a few remain. Help complete support and test against the CSS selectors test suite to verify compliance.
- CSS2.1 Test Suite
- Check out the CSS2.1 test suite and file compliance bugs so that we can track open issues with our CSS2.1 compliance.

The faces behind 20 famous typefaces
Typefaces are part of our daily lives as visual communicators, we use type in logo design, web design and other 'facets' of graphic design. There are literally hundreds of thousands of fonts available; some free, some commissioned, some good, some bad and some over-used. Below is a collection of some of the world's well-known typefaces and a short bio of the typographers who designed them.
Max Miedinger
A Swiss typeface designer, He was famous for creating Helvetica in 1957. Marketed as a symbol of cutting-edge Swiss technology, Helvetica went global at once.
Adrian Frutiger
One of the prominent typeface designers of the twentieth century, who continues influencing the direction of digital typography in the twenty-first century; he is best known for creating the typefaces Univers and Frutiger.
Claude Garamond
A Parisian publisher. He was one of the leading type designers of his time, and several contemporary typefaces, including those named Garamond, Granjon, and Sabon show his influence.
George W. Jones
George W.Jones(1860-1942) was one of the most respected and celebrated fine printers of his generation. He entered the printing business in 1873 (at the young age of 13) and joined the printing house of Raithby & Lawrence in 1883. In 1889 he became an independent printer and publisher adopting vigorous business policies towards graphic design and technology.
Jan Tschichold
A typographer, book designer, teacher and writer trained in calligraphy. This artisan background and calligraphic training set him apart from almost all other noted typographers of the time, since they had inevitably trained in architecture or the fine arts.
John Baskerville
An English businessman, in areas including japanning and papier-mâché, but he is best remembered as a printer and typographer. Baskerville was responsible for significant innovations in printing, paper and ink production.
He developed a technique which produced a smoother whiter paper which showcased his strong black type. Baskerville also pioneered a completely new style of typography adding wide margins and leading between each line.
Matthew Carter
A type designer who lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States. Carter's career in type design has witnessed the transition from physical metal type to digital type.
Paul Renner
A typeface designer, most notably of Futura. He was born in Wernigerode, Germany and died in Hödingen. He created a new set of guidelines for good book design and invented the popular Futura, a geometric sans-serif font used by many typographers throughout the 20th century and up till the present.
Monotype Imaging Inc.
A typesetting and typeface design company (type foundry) responsible for many developments in printing technology — in particular the Monotype machine which was the first fully mechanical typesetter — and the design and production of typefaces in the 19th and 20th centuries. Its most widely known product, by far, is the font Times New Roman.
Carol Twombly
American calligrapher and typeface designer who has designed many typefaces, including Trajan, Myriad and Adobe Caslon. She worked as a type designer at Adobe Systemsfrom 1988 through 1999, during which time she designed, or contributed to the design of many typefaces. She retired from type design in early 1999.
Eric Gill
A British sculptor, typeface designer, stonecutter and printmaker, who was associated with the Arts and Crafts movement. Today he is a controversial figure, with his well known religious views and subject matter being seen at odds with his sexual and paraphiliac behaviour and erotic art.
Charles A. Bigelow
A type historian, professor, and designer. He received a MacArthur Fellowship in 1982. Along with Kris Holmes, he is the co-creator of Lucida and Wingdings font families. He runs the Bigelow and Holmes foundry.
Kris Holmes
A type designer, she is with Charles Bigelow the co-creator of the Lucida font family. She received her B.A. from Harvard University and her MFA from UCLA Film School in Animation. She has taught at Portland State University.
Vincent Connare
A former Microsoft in-house font designer. Amongst his creations are the Comic Sans font, and the Trebuchet MS font, both of which ship as standard on current releases of Microsoft Windows.

Stephen Tiano Said:
Carol Twombley's work is extraordinary. The three types shown above are wonderful. As a book designer and typographer, I've used Adobe Caslon and Myriad a number of times. As an avid moviegoer, I recognize Trajan from its use in titling.
I so sorry Ms. Twombley retired at what seems to have been the height of her creativity. And I'm just as sorry we apparently don't see any new work of hers since then.

Mokokoma Mokhonoana Said:
Stephen Tiano,
I agree, Carol's work is indeed remarkable. I believe Trajan is best suited for titles as it would be hard to read if used for long body copy.
Welcome and thanks for stopping by.

Stephen Tiano Said:
Yes, movie titling, specifically, from what I've seen.
As for Ms. Twombley, I wonder how a talent like that quit at what seemed like the peak of her creativity. I can't imagine that she just walked away to never create again, but I've never heard of her work anywhere since.
Know anything about that?

Dithapelo Kgonyane Said:
Hi Mokokoma,
Thank you for educating us, I didn't know this typefaces were created/named after certain individuals because of their history.
I normally use Baskerville for writing letters and other topics as part of written communication, well i must say "education and knowledge goes a long way"

James Kurtz III Said:
So now I know that Vincent Connare is to blame for comic sans. It's unfortunate that the typefaces designed specifically for operating systems weren't of better quality.
Hopefully the mistake won't be made again. Look at Google's Android operating system. They hired Ascender to design a beautiful family called Droid.
— On March 10th, 2009 at 9:36 pm [permarlink]
Mokokoma Mokhonoana Said:
Dithapelo Kgonyane,
I'm glad that you learned a thing a two from this post.
James Kurtz,
Yes, Vincent Connare is the 'culprit'. I agree most typefaces native to the operating systems were/are under par, but most companies are now putting more effort by investing in good typographers.

12 Clean Energy Trends to Watch in 2011
As the clean energy industry emerges from a challenging period caused by the global economic downturn, it is entering a stage of rapid change in which business models are being transformed against a backdrop of regulatory uncertainty. In several key sectors, the market is shifting back toward business structures and technologies that were once abandoned, but are now being revived. A new white paper from Pike Research identifies 10 key trends that are part of this transformation. The paper, which includes commentary and predictions about the state of the clean energy industry in 2011 and beyond, is available for free download on Pike Research's website.
"As the clean energy industry matures and as it simultaneously comes to grips with economic challenges, market leaders are experimenting with new business models, both at a large scale and on a distributed basis," says senior analyst Peter Asmus. "At the same time, key industry players are utilizing an increasingly wider diversity of technology options, especially in the solar and wind sectors."
1. Wind power steps up efforts to move offshore. Citing concerns, population density, limited available onshore sites, and concerns about wind power's impact on birds and bats have often delayed and hindered many wind power projects. So, some developers, manufactures, governments, and investors, particularly in the United States and The United Kingdom have opted to move their wind power projects offshore, in spite of the potential additional costs associated with building long distance transmission lines. The biggest players in this market are Germany, the United Kingdom and Denmark, which obtains more than 25% of its electricity from wind power. However, in the long-term, Pike Research's market forecast shows that China's offshore wind market will be even with the UK and Germany by 2017.
2. Wave and tidal energy are about to take off. There is a growing interest lately in hydrokinetic technologies such as those that make use of wave and tidal motion, and it is expected that within the next five to eight years, these emerging technologies will become commercialized to the point that they will begin competing for a share of the growing renewable energy market. There is growing interest in these technologies in the United States, Ireland, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and Portugal. The market is driven primarily by about 100 firms, however there a number of larger players including Lockheed Martin, Pacific Gas & Electric, Chevron, BP, and Shell are looking to deploy wave and ocean current devices. In the States, Maine leads on tidal, and Oregon leads in terms of wave power deployment.
3. DC-based microgrids may transform clean energy markets. The growing interest in DC-based microgrids stems from the following developments:
- Advances in power electronics originating from electric drives, process plants, and mass transit traction systems have been adapted to the transmission and distribution (T&D) industry.
- Some of the same kinds of power electronics innovations occurring with PCs, iPods, and other consumer gadgets have occurred within larger industrial systems.
- AC transmission systems suffer lines losses that can range from 10% to 15%, while HVDC line losses lose just 2%.
- AC systems sometimes flow in unpredictable ways, which contributes to rolling blackouts or brownouts, while HVDC systems are 100% controllable, with the power only going where you want it to go.
Ironically, today's utility grid evolved to an AC-based grid because the technology could carry power better over long distances than low-voltage DC and the electric utility industry evolved into a monopoly-based business model. Both giant IT firms and emerging entrepreneurs are supporting the idea of switching back to direct current T&D systems. DC systems are already in the home– being used to power PCs, thermostats, refrigerators, gas meters, AC outdoor united, washing machines, and gas ranges, etc.
4. More utilities are underwriting new renewable energy power plants and cogeneration facilities. After decades of reliance on independent power producers as the primary developers of new renewable energy power plants and cogeneration facilities, in the wake of the recent Wall Street meltdown and resulting recession, new capital intensive projects are now relying more on utilities to underwrite these ventures. US utility firms are dominating in this arena, with investor-owned utilities financing an increasing share of large systems that feed directly into utility wholesale grids. While most of the action is taking place in California, these are a number of utility-owned generation (UOG) systems and utility-scale solar PV projects being developed in Colorado, Nevada, and Arizona.
5. Offshore wind power is seeking new sources of financing. Offshore wind power in Europe is financed by an umbrella of companies, which almost always include a government-owned financial institution, as well as unregulated arms of large utilities. As these wind projects move into the mainstream, it has become necessary for utilities to identify new sources of financing to remain sustainable. In the United States, where the off-shore wind market is drive by wind developers, those with ties to major utilities are in the best position to get through current economic setbacks.
6. Biomass facilities are getting smaller. With more focus on thermal energy services than on electricity generation, biomass facilities are starting to get smaller. However the cost of fuel collection from small sources in high, so small facilities are relying on regional sources of fuel to minimize fuel collection and transportation costs.
7. Geothermal is making a comeback in the United States. Western state renewable portfolio standards (RPS) laws are driving investment in new transmission. In US western states, geothermal power generation is seeing a period of tremendous growth, with California and Nevada being the strongest markets. There are 188 geothermal projects in 15 states being developed. Pike Research forecasts the the U.S. will add 2,313 MW of geothermal capacity by 2015.
8. China is becoming a leader in the waste-to-energy market. China's surging population and waste generation are pushing it to the top of the global waste-to-energy market, while the United states stagnates in this sector as a result of the limited availability of cheap landfills. There has not been a new waste to energy plant built in the United States in a decade.
9. There is significant diversification in the solar sector. There is movement away from a focus primarily on polysilicon solar PV to an embracing of other solar technologies including thin film solar PV panels, concentrated solar power (CSP) also known as solar thermal electric, and concentrated solar PV (CPV). One of the most interesting developments in solar is the merging of CSP and solar PV concepts- known as concentrating solar PV. It achieves efficiencies than 40% while solar PV panels are only 20% efficient. The size of solar power generators is growing. The bundling of tax incentives and attractive leasing arrangements have enabled customers to install solar PV on large commercial complexes without and major up-front capital costs. Wind is not the only renewable energy to take to the water. A handful of firms are driving a new trend of floating solar arrays. In the United States, SPG Solar in Novato, CA has installed two projects on ponds for California wineries.
10. Wind power is undergoing diversification in both design and scale. Solar is not the only clean energy sector that is experiencing a period of diversification. Wind is undergoing diversification in both design and scale. While most commercial wind turbines are based on the classic Danish three-bladed upwind design, two-bladed designs are being promoted due to capital cost savings, and vertical axis designs are being used for offshore wind power generation and for the small-scale wind market. Because the cost to install as smaller wind turbine dose not difference significantly that the cost to install a larger wind turbine, there has be a push for larger machines.
11. On the verge of a comeback in the United States, the nuclear power industry faces the possibility of dying out as a result of the nuclear disaster in Japan. After hitting an all time high in acceptance by the public, the evolving calamity at the Fukushima nuclear power plant witnessed by the world as it happens is having a significant negative impact on perceptions of nuclear power around the world, that could ultimately doom the industry. With the exception of the United States, most nations around the world are cancelling plans for expanding the use of nuclear power and some, most notably, Germany is planning on phasing out the use of nuclear power. For the most part the rest of the world is shifting the focus away from nuclear energy and to renewable energy.
Pike Research analysts suggest that in the United States, the politicization of renewable energy, and the nuclear power industry's strategy of being linked it as a clean source of energy, may also serve to force President Obama to renege on his commitment to set aside $36 billion of federal tax payer money into loan guarantees designed to revive the nuclear industry. They suggest that the Tea Party movement in the Republican party will see the support of nuclear as socialist. While it is an interesting theory, the Tea Party has not been up in arms over the subsidizing of the oil, gas, and coal industries, and Republicans have for the most part supported the nuclear industry in the past. However, even before the earth quake in Japan, utilities in the US were expressing misgivings about nuclear power as a viable energy source because of the capital risks, sting concerns, and low natural gas prices.
12. China's wind market is facing continued growing pains. Even though China is the largest wind power market in the world, it is facing several significant setbacks. The products of some of the nation's smaller developers from have experienced some quality control issues and this has force the Chine to impose new quality standards to weed them out. They have been unable to generated the revenues that they anticipated due to increased competition from European manufacturers that have entered the market and the requirement that 70% of all components be manufactured by its domestic supply chain. China's growth in wind power is slowing because it's feed-in tariffs and mandatory grid access have not been enforced. Additionally, developers are having difficulties financing projects, as well as facing cash flow issues because if the policy of paying subsidies every six months, while in other countries subsidies are paid out on monthly basis.
Conclusions and predictions presented in Pike Research's white paper, "Clean Energy: Trends to Watch in 2011 and Beyond," draws from a broad array of Pike Research reports, with market forecasts included for key sectors.

karrie says:This is interesting. These trends are obvious clues on what works and what doesn't work in investing in energy initiatives. On a general view I think we're heading in a good direction, clean energy is a really nice alternative for all of us. Trend number 2 really got my attention.
A guest says:
Interesting article and I sure hope the investment in renewable energy continues to ramp up.
Topic #3 is interesting in theory but is pretty far fetched in practice. One thing that is not mentioned is the competence requred to safely manage a DC power distribution system. I cannot really imagine a HV DC micro-grid is viable in many applications; maybe a data center or lab, but that's about it.
Nathan Wilson says:
Nuclear power cannot die out, any more than passive solar heating can die out. It's a fundamental part of the modern energy landscape. It may wax or wane in popularity with the general public, and have varying success in different countries.
But it will always re-enter the picture when people seriously consider ending use of fossil fuels. The laws of physics and economics are clear. It inherently cost more to gather and use a diffuse and variable energy source like sunlight than it does a concentrated and storable one like nuclear power.
The recent German and Swiss plans to phase out nuclear power are just thinly veiled plans to increase use of dirty fossil fuels.
Rick Engebretson says:
I agree, Nathan. Nuclear power will not shrink, either here or elsewhere. However, I would like the nuclear industry to continue improving their long record instead of trying to sell many more facilities.
This discussion bundles broad, complex, vital systems into eithers and ors. Perhaps mapping this complexity to another template will contribute to shared visions.
The human body has a core set of organs, perhaps nuclear is the heart or brain. All the appendages have their own stuff happening. A brain in a jar, plus a foot in a jar, plus other jars isn't a body.
Please don't think those of us interested in appendages aren't appreciative of the core. At my age dental care comes second to heart care.
Writers like this just talk. But I thought your alarm was worth responding to.
Paul O says:I cannot agree more. The nuclear industry plus the Universities and National Laboratories need to step up their acts and give us the kind of Nuclear Energy that we deserve. We need to bring nuclear power out of its teething stages into the Fourth Generation where its future surely lies.
Nathan Wilson says:
I'm not sure what you mean by "DC based microgrids". Perhaps you meant DC supergrids? Or solar PV systems for grass huts?
High Voltage DC is only appropirate (cost effective) for very large power flows (>5,000 MegaWatts) over very large distances (>500 miles) or undersea cables. AC will remain king from this range all the way down to the 200 Watt level and the 100 foot distance (at which point 12 VDC systems are cheap and work fine).
The main exceptions are the International Space station which uses 120 VDC, airplanes which use 28 VDC, and telephone company offices which use 48 VDC battery-backup for their equipment.
A guest says:
I'm curious what basis you have for your claim that "most nations around the world are cancelling plans for expanding the use of nuclear power and some, most notably, Germany is planning on phasing out the use of nuclear power. For the most part the rest of the world is shifting the focus away from nuclear energy and to renewable energy."
Most countries have ordered safety reviews; India and China have temporarily suspended new builds, but both as well as the US, France, Germany, the UK, Sweden, and Spain have stated that their nuclear programs would move forward.
How is this evidence of "shifting the focus away from nuclear energy and to renewable energy"? And as far as I'm aware, Germany is the only country which has pledged to eliminate nuclear power from its mix, yet you indicate that Germany is one of "some". Who are the others?

"Yes, I agree with your ideas. Nuclear power plays a vital role in climate solution. Nuclear power provides 19% of total U.S. electricity production with necessarily 0 greenhouse gas emissions.

"Minor quibbles: France's share of low-carbon electricity is 95%, not 97%, according to your cited source. This error may arise because generation from renewables is actually at 18% and not 20%."

Every once in a very great while, we get these people who rise above the confines of self. Nelson Mandela was one of those. He navigated his life by the polestar not of self, but of freedom and in so doing, became the founding father of a new nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all people are created equal.
It is not that he was a perfect man. "In real life," he once wrote, "we deal, not with gods, but with ordinary humans like ourselves: men and women who are full of contradictions, who are stable and fickle, strong and weak, famous and infamous."

School Jerks
School Jerks
Grave Mistake Records
School Jerks have finally moved passed the confines of a 7" record. Don't worry though, they haven't moved very far. This 45-rpm 12" runs under 15 minutes, without a second to waste. I hate to be the guy who compares a hardcore band in 2012 to Black Flag, but I'm about to do it. This record sounds a lot like early Black Flag. There. I said it. Not to mention that the album's artwork looks a lot like Ray Pettibon (it's actually Tara Bursey).
School Jerks is short (duh), but it's got a lot jam packed into these 15 minutes. There's a certain sense of urgency that you can only find in this kind of record. Not since Career Suicide's Attempted Suicide have I heard a hardcore record with such bang-for-your-buck come out of Toronto, let alone come out in general (the Toronto Sun on the cover gave me a nice little laugh as well).
The pacing of the record kind of bunkers down around track 9, "Arrogant Order"; the jerking transitions throw off the wall-of-sound approach in the first 8 tracks, but track 10, "Endless Mirrors" picks up where it left off. More modern comparisons to Black Flag would have to be Social Circkle and Night Birds in their more hardcore moments, to a degree.
I'd call School Jerks working class hardcore if that wasn't A: redundant and; B: Springsteen-esque. Call it whatever you want, I'm just happy that Toronto's lively hardcore scene is being picked up and supported by the outside world.

Many people this year in Colorado are excited for April 20; theyre excited to celebrate their appreciation of the use of marijuana.
Marijuana is a wonderful and natural way to help a wealth of problems that a lot of people face these days. Its a safer alternative to many addictive and harmful drugs used in the medical industry. However, like all things, too much of a good thing can be bad.
Amendment 64 treats marijuana like alcohol and with good reason. At a younger age, your body is still going through a lot of changes, physically and emotionally. Its sometimes a lot more difficult at a younger age to not form habits with things like marijuana and alcohol.
These things can also have a much more harmful impact on your psyche because of all the hormonal instabilities you face as a youth. I can attest to this from experience. It can make a bad situation much worse, and it can make a good situation less meaningful.
Someday youll have the opportunity to decide if marijuana use is right for you; until then, you should stay away from things that alter your mind.

text: Boeing Eyes Washington Exit, Other States Drool Big prize up for grabs after machinists turn down deal By Rob Quinn, Newser Staff Posted Nov 15, 2013 3:36 AM CST STORY COMMENTS (34) (Newser) – Boeing's long history in Washington state is at a turning point and other states—including California, South Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama—are gleefully eyeing the prospect of thousands, possibly tens of thousands, of well-paid jobs building the company's upcoming 777X aircraft, the AP reports. A machinists union rejected a deal this week that would have kept production in the Seattle area and the company, which shifted its headquarters from Seattle to Chicago in 2001, says it is now looking for new locations to build the plane, though it hasn't completely ruled out reaching a deal with the Washington workers. Lawmakers and business groups in Southern California—where the number of aerospace jobs has dived 70% since 1990—are among those eagerly trying to woo Boeing, though experts believe the firm may opt for South Carolina, where its first non-union final-assembly plant makes 787s, reports the Los Angeles Times. In Washington, meanwhile, union leaders are standing firm after members voted to reject a deal that would have ended traditional pension plans and increased health care costs. "We preserved something sacred by rejecting the Boeing proposal," says the president of International Association of Machinists District 751. "We've held on to our pensions and that's big. At a time when financial planners are talking about a 'retirement crisis' in America, we have preserved a tool that will help our members retire with more comfort and dignity."

Thank you Frank for your involvement with this issue. You are completely correct...the template is there. What was that Nike saying?
October 25th, 2010
Great contribution. I'm an avid bike rider in Newport Beach and I have been baffled by some of the places where biking is truly hazardous. Probably the most surprising is the fact that you can't find a bike rack for love or money on Balboa Island. My wife and I went to Balboa Island for their big yard sale day several months ago. Knowing that it would be ridiculously busy, we rode our bikes thinking that this would be a nice thing for the community that lives on the Island -- keep the car congestion down, etc. We got there and then couldn't lock our bikes anywhere, so we had to drag them around with us all day! Absurd. Less talk, less "research," more ACTION!

|OBJECTIVE: To present a case of successful management of a heavily bleeding cervical ectopic pregnancy with ultrasound-guided termination procedure of evacuation. DESIGN: Case report. SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT(S): A 34-year-old woman, secundigravida with one previous full-term natural childbirth and history of one spontaneous abortion, with a cervical pregnancy. INTERVENTION(S): Prophylactic suture ligation of the cervicovaginal branches of the uterine artery, with absorbable sutures at the 3 and 9 o'clock positions of the cervix. Evacuation, with dilatation and curettage, under transabdominal ultrasound guidance was performed. Control of hemorrhage by placing a running-lock absorbable suture around the entire edge of the cervix followed by cervical packing with iodoform gauze medicated with anticoagulant drugs. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Recovery of the patient, successful conservative treatment of the cervical ectopic pregnancy, with preservation of the uterus. RESULT(S): The cervical ectopic pregnancy was succesfully evacuated, and the reproductive capability of the patient was preserved. CONCLUSION(S): Ultrasound-guided evacuation with prophylactic closure of the cervical branches of the uterine artery and application of a running-lock suture around the cervix can be used in case of heavily bleeding cervical ectopic pregnancy.

How was the Native American pass-through formula developed?
The formula for the pass-through funds was specified by Congress as part of the formula grant funding to states included in the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (JJDP) Act of 2002 (Pub. L. No. 93-415, 42 U.S.C. § 5601 et seq.). It is the responsibility of the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) to implement the various elements of the Act, which includes overseeing the formula calculation.
How were the data sources used to calculate the formula selected?
OJJDP, in conjunction with the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) and the Justice Research and Statistics Association (JRSA), attempted to identify the most recent and accurate data for use in the formula calculation. The sources and calculations explained in the Methodology section of the Web site were deemed to be the most accurate by the agencies involved. OJJDP has provided funding to us to continue to examine these data sources and look for ways to improve the accuracy of the formula calculations.
How was the determination made of whether or not a tribe has a law enforcement function?
A tribe was considered to have a law enforcement function if it met any of the following criteria:
Why does the formula use Native American youth populations based on 2005 data?
The agencies involved have determined that the most accurate data on tribal youth populations come from the survey of tribes conducted by BIA for their American Indian Population and Labor Force Report. The survey was being conducted by BIA every other year; however, it was not administered in 2007. As of the Spring of 2010 a new survey has been fielded. us hopes to incorporate new tribal youth population estimates from this new survey in the pass-through calculations for the FY 2012 Title II Formula Grants Program.
How will other data sources be updated?
us will incorporate the most recent available data from each source at the time of each allocation formula calculation, usually around the beginning of each year. This will included the latest estimates of state juvenile populations from the Census Bureau, as well as any updates to the list of Federally-recognized tribes or tribes with law enforcement functions.
How is "law enforcement functions" defined?
Law enforcement functions are defined broadly to encompass activities pertaining to the custody of children, including, but not limited to, police efforts to prevent, control, or reduce crime and delinquency or to apprehend criminal and delinquent offenders, and/or activities of corrections, probation, or parole authorities.
How does the formula calculation handle the situation where tribal lands may cross state boundaries?
OJJDP has determined that if an Indian tribe's land crosses state boundaries, the allocation for that tribe is the responsibility of the state that is listed in the official mailing address of the tribal government.
How are tribes in Public Law 280 states accounted for in the formula calculations?
Tribes in PL 280 states that do not provide any of the law enforcement functions listed above are not eligible for funding as defined in the legislation. States may choose to make awards to those tribes at their own discretion.
There is a tribe in my state that has it's own tribal law enforcement agency but I don't see it on the list of eligible tribes on my state page. What should I do?
Please contact us with any questions you have about the information on the site. In this case, there are a couple of possible reasons why the tribe isn't included. Some tribes may be part of a larger or consolidated tribe and are included in an award to another entity. For example, the Confederated Tribes of Siletz in Oregon is made up of approximately 27 bands, such as the Chinook, Tillamook, and Tolowa. It is also possible that the law enforcement agency is actually a Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) agency rather than an agency funded by the tribe, or that the law enforcement agency is new and is not yet reflected in our data sources. Please contact us so that we can verify the information and update our data, if necessary.
How do we provide feedback on the information provided on the site?
Please contact us with any questions regarding the calculation of the allocation formula. You may also contact us if you believe that a tribe was incorrectly included or excluded from the list of Federally-recognized tribes with law enforcement functions, or if you have a question regarding the state or tribal youth population numbers.

Hi all, I'm a bit discouraged so I thought I would vent. Just when I think I have everything going well with my colt (now 4 months old) it seems like we backslide.
For instance today, I took him for a little walk around the property and we had about 3 instances where he tried to get ahead of me and/or bumped his shoulder into me while we were walking. So I took the lead rope and spun him around to face me and backed him up several steps.
I try to back him up a lot in general just to get his attention and get him out of my space. Mostly, he backs pretty well, but sometimes he will ignore the cue (kissing and a tap with a dressage whip) and I end up smacking him harder, which makes me feel really crummy, but I have to get a response, right?
He also tried to nip me once today so I made him back 1/2 way across the pen.
I guess what discourages me is we have these battles and things get better, but then it seems we have these battles all over again a few days later. And again and again. I just don't know how much I should be expecting out of him at this age, and how to make an impression on him so he won't keep trying the same old stuff.
One day he can be perfect (especially after exercise) and the next day it's like we are re-inventing the wheel all over again.
Any thoughts? I don't want to be hard on him or expect too much, but I don't want him to grow up to be a disrespectful horse either.
