Renovations complete at Pleasant Valley Country Club
The Pleasant Valley Country Club has completed renovations.
Work has included painting of walls and ceilings and updated decor in the ballroom, remodeled bathrooms and sitting area on the same floor and other general improvements.
The clubhouse was rebuilt in 1983 after a fire destroyed the previous one and has not had extensive remodeling again until now.
Ken Ivory, director of operations, is pleased with the results.
"The project in the ballroom included stripping the walls and floors. The work was done by a local company, Wilson and Sons. They did all the painting and wallpaper and did a great job. New flooring was put in many areas. The updated appearance of the room is helping us to book events. Most people who see the new look of the ballroom fall in love with it," said Ivory.
Tim Carson and his staff, of Carson's Premier Catering in Scottdale, now operate the food and beverage at PVCC.
"We are eight weeks into our relationship with Carson's and everything has been exceptional. We've hosted a dozen catered events and each of them has gone well with those in attendance telling us how pleased they are. Food quality is excellent, communication has been good," said Ivory.
The Sunday brunch is open to the public as are bookings for any size events.
"We've had luncheons of 20 people and dinners of 180 people, anyone can book any catered event. The public liquor license that we are getting allows us to serve alcohol at any catered event and to the public golf leagues that we have this year. There are now four public golf leagues that play at PVCC in the afternoon, ranging from 16 players up to 40 players. The leagues are happy and the members can still come and play any time of the day," said Ivory.
PVCC is a private country club. The exceptions are a few charity golf outings where the organization has the course for the day and the public golf leagues which guarantee the course is being used weekly by a certain number of golfers, said Ivory.
"We have been working in conjunction with the USGA and one of their top agronomists. At his urging, we have implemented a very aggressive tree removal schedule. The tree removal that has taken place has vastly improved the soil and root health providing a much better playing surface. It has also allowed many parts of the golf course that previously did not receive any sunlight and wind to thrive without being shaded all day long. There is certainly no denying the fact that the play ability of the golf course has improved since the process was started. We still have a few more areas that were identified for continued tree removal but the majority of the job is complete," said Ivory.
The Pro Shop has more inventory than ever with a great selection of merchandise, from equipment to clothing, golf balls to shoes, said Ivory. It is open, at minimum, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily.
Alicia Bell is the new business office manager. She is responsible for membership billing and for coordinating catered events. She schedules event reservations. She has held the same position for Carson's Premier Catering in Scottdale.
"We offer all occasion menus for catered events, from simple to elaborate. The Sunday brunch that is open to the public offers delicious choices. There are both an omelet and egg station and a Belgian waffle station that has mouth-watering topping choices," said Bell.
Other items include french toast, egg casserole, home fries, hot oatmeal, bacon, sausage, ham, fresh fruit, bagels, rolls and assorted breads, orange, cranberry, grapefruit and tomato juice. There is stuffed chicken breast, stuffed cabbage rolls, seafood, pasta, beef, potatoes and pan gravy and vegetables as well as a soup and salad bar with fresh salad greens, 20 different salad items and two fresh soup selections. The dessert selection includes an ice cream station. Sunday brunch is served 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. It also includes non-alcoholic beverages.
Call 724-628-6360 ext. 5 for reservations.
Bell emphasizes that anyone can hold an event at PVCC. Corporate meetings, banquets, weddings and receptions, baby and bridal showers, Baptisms and First Holy Communion. Often a group will make reservations for the Sunday brunch for these celebrations. Graduation parties and summer get-togethers can be reserved at the outdoor tented patio with use of the swimming pool.
The newly-remodeled ballroom accommodates 175 people and an additional 50 seats are available by reserving the Horizon Room as well. For more information contact Bell at email@example.com. Holiday parties are always welcome to be scheduled as early as possible.
Another new look at PVCC are the uniforms worn by the staff for every event.
The Junior Golf Program at PVCC begins its 18th year under the direction of Judy Morrow with a clinic.
Ken Ivory and other pro volunteers will help the Junior Golfers work on chipping, putting and long game.
There will be a second clinic prior to the official start of the schedule.
There is a $10 charge per clinic for any child and they do not have to be a member of PVCC.
Junior golf is for boys and girls ages 7 through 18 and they must be a member or grandchild of a member to participate in the program.
Junior golf continues throughout the summer. Junior golfers are recognized at a banquet at the end of their season, said Morrow. For more information, contact Morrow at 724-454-0842.
"We've had a great start to the year and have picked up new members," said Ivory.
Hours of operation are 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday-Sunday.

What was thought to be a massive rebuilding job at 2012 NJSIAA Tournament of Champions winner Manasquan has instead turned out to be one of the more pleasant surprises in the Shore Conference during December.
A 54-31 win over No. 4 seed Toms River East in a WOBM Christmas Classic quarterfinal on Wednesday evening continued an unexpected start for No. 5 seed Manasquan (3-2), which received a game-high 14 points from senior forward Amanda Hagaman and another nine from junior forward Sam Sullivan. Hagaman and Sullivan are the two main holdovers from last season's TOC winner.

A Trout Unlimited member points to a sign indicating its new chapter in Dixie.

Moving to Southern Utah where there was no chapter of Trout Unlimited, I had to be assigned to one in Wyoming where I spend the summers. Now, fishermen in Dixie have their own chapter, announced at the Kids Fishing Derby recently hosted at the Tawa Ponds in St. George.
What can TU do for you? The question is, of course, what can you do for them. You can help preserve and improve fresh water trout fishing wherever you live. We don't have many trout streams in Dixie but there is much an angler can do, even in the many local bass and trout lakes. Here are a few things listed by the organization.

Net income for the first six months of the year was
In the second quarter of 2012, sales in the Sealing Products segment increased 22% over the second quarter of 2011, reflecting growth of 23% from the Motorwheel and Tara Technologies acquisitions and 2% from organic factors, including favorable pricing. These improvements were partially offset by the effect of foreign currency translation, which reduced the segment's sales by 3%. The segment's sales benefited from increased demand in North American industrial markets and higher activity levels in semiconductor and nuclear power markets. Compared to the second quarter a year ago, demand in the segment's European markets was lower, and demand for aftermarket products in North American heavy-duty truck markets and in global oil and gas markets decreased.
The segment's profits declined by 6% and segment profit margins were
reduced to 13.8% in the second quarter of 2012. The change in margins
reflects a shift in sales mix from higher margin aftermarket products to
lower margin original equipment components as a result of the Tara
Technologies acquisition. Segment profits and margins also were affected
by acquisition-related expenses of
Engineered Products segment sales declined by 7% over the second quarter of 2011, reflecting the effect of foreign currency translation, which reduced sales by 6%, and lower volumes in the segment's operations. These factors were partially offset by sales from PI Bearings, which was acquired in the third quarter of 2011, and better pricing for the segment's products. Although activity declined in European industrial and automotive markets and remained at low levels in North American natural gas markets, the segment's sales benefited from increased activity in its North American industrial and petrochemical markets, compared to the second quarter a year ago.
Segment profits also decreased and segment margins were lower as volumes declined in the segment's European and Canadian markets and as restructuring costs and investments in sales and marketing activities increased.
In the Engine Products and Services segment, sales improved by 59% over the second quarter of 2011. The increase reflects engine revenue recorded in the second quarter of 2012 as a result of percentage of completion accounting, which the segment began using for new engine production in the third quarter of 2011. In the second quarter of 2011, no engines were shipped by the segment and as a result, no engine revenue was recorded. Aftermarket parts and services sales were lower in the second quarter of 2012 than a year ago, when the segment benefited from major engine repairs and overhauls.
Although segment profits benefited from the increase in engine revenue, segment margins contracted as engine revenue, which is generally less profitable than aftermarket sales, increased.
Third party sales at the deconsolidated operations of GST and its subsidiaries increased by 3% over the second quarter of 2011, reflecting modest increases in activity in North American markets and better pricing. Higher selling, general and administrative expenses reduced operating profits and operating profit margins in the second quarter of 2012 compared to a year ago.

The plan was to "train through" the previous weekend's trail race (Rosaryville) and the SF Half Marathon as the last preparation before starting to train for the NYC Marathon.
I did some real easy runs on Monday and Tuesday, my legs are feeling beat up from the 10 mile trail race but each day they seem to improve.
Wednesday was back to the track for a speed session: 12x400 with 200 recovery. It was a tough workout but I managed to get through without feeling too beat up.
I flew out on Thursday; took the train from the airport into the city and got settled into the hotel. I did some sightseeing around Union Square and Chinatown and called it a day.
Friday started with an 8 easy miles from Union Square to the Ferry Terminal and along Embarcadero (water front) through Fisherman's Wharf to the municipal pier near Ft Mason and back. Weather was upper 50s, the sun was coming up with clear sky's, just about perfect.
About the only time that the Trolleys weren't jammed packed and had long lines was early in the morning.
Along the Embarcadaro near the Ferry Terminal.
San Francisco Bay with Alcatraz in the distance.
On the pier near Ft Mason looking back at the city.
Fisherman's Wharf -- without the tourists.
Bay Bridge to Oakland
Giant bow and arrow sculpture thing.
After lunch at the Ferry Terminal, I went to the expo which while not too big was pretty decent The trip to and from the expo was pretty neat. The infamous Cable Cars are hugely crowded and cost $6 per trip; there is a better alternative - the street cars. SF has a really nice street car line that so I was able get from near Union Square to Fisherman's Wharf. The cars are antiques from different cities (I think they have one from Italy too). Plus the ride is only $2.
Street car named.....?
Saturday was an easy 4 miles in perfect weather, this time along the waterfront to the Bay Bridge. While SF has a well deserved reputation for hills, it is possible to run without encountering any of the real nasty ones (total elevation gain on these runs was about 80 feet).
After breakfast I spent some time improving myself culturally (I'm told that people believe that engineers need a lot of help with this) by visiting the Asian Art Museum. This is a very nice museum and very highly recommended.
Cultural stuff done, I headed down to the Ferry Terminal to meet Liz (Keep Running Girl) for lunch and a mini Loopmeet. As happens with the meeting of Loopsters, we ended up talking for almost 3 hours before it was time to go. Saturday evening was an early dinner at the hotel (some surprisingly good pasta) and then trying to get to sleep early for the next days race.
How did I think I was going to do? I wasn't sure. The trail race had been a little harder then I thought it would be - note to self, if you enter a race, it is inevitable that you will run it harder then you intend to - and I hadn't really tapered that much - okay my mileage was down a bit from the 50 I had run recently but not enough to really count or induce any taper madness - plus I didn't think I was anywhere near peak, I had only been base building so far with a little bit of speed and some hills but no long stamina building interval sessions. Of course I was running better and faster then ever have before. All told I hoped that I would get a modest PR (something below 1:37:59 - my PR from Rehoboth was 1:38:24). I had also looked at the previous couple of years results and depending on the field figured I may actually have a chance to get a top 10 or 20 AG placement.
Sunday was Race Morning. Early it was upper 50's, humid but with overcast sky's. Pretty acceptable for a race in July. I was scheduled to ride a bus from the marathon start/finish area by the Ferry Terminal. SF has a marathon and two half marathons, each half marathon covers half of the full course. I was running the second half marathon and would ride the bus to the marathons midpoint. I did get to watch about 1 and 1/2 corrals of the full and first half marathoners go start before boarding a big yellow school bus for the ride to Golden Gate Park.
Ferry Terminal at dawn, near the full marathon start line.
One of the corrals of Full and 1st Half Marathon starting their race.
Once we arrived, I made my first visit to the porta-johns and dropped my bag off. I was then able to go just past the start line to where the marathoners were passing by and do a little cheering. This was at about the half way point and while most still looked pretty good and some were already struggling, you could tell that most of them were starting to feel the miles to some extant.
Cheering full at half start line
After watching and cheering for about 20 minutes it was time to visit the porta johns (glad I got on line when I did because by now there was quite a crowd) and then found my way to my corral. I didn't plan on running with a pacer but I wanted to be sure that I lined up behind the 1:35 pacers. The pacers really needed some organizational help. They didn't seem to really know where to stand - I had to ask the 1:50 pacer if he really thought he should be in front of the 1:45 pacers (he did not). Of course the 1:35 guys were the ones that forgot their sign but I spotted them when they showed up and stood next me, at which point I managed to sidle back a couple feet - but not anymore because I really didn't want to be behind the 1:45 guys.
Waiting for the start.
There were a few people behind me too.
After the National Anthem they started the elites and sub elites and then several minutes later it was Wave 2 and our slightly confused pace groups' turn. At which point we started to merge with the 4:30 or so marathoners. The first part of mile 1 is a slight down hill and I as going maybe a little fast (did I just see a sub 7 pace? Let's get this under control!). The first miles wound through Golden Gate park and beside the weaving to get through the marathoners, was pretty nice. It is also most uphill although the elevation gain was only about 200 feet over several miles.
A steady uphill, a couple of steep downhills and a little bit of flat.
Feeling good in Golden Gate Park
Course wasn't too crowded, except for the golf cart -- they were filming a story about a runner who is a homeless artist and was doing the half marathon.
The second half start was mixed with the marathoners who were running around 4:30 to 4:45 pace -- needed to stay focused on my own pace and not how folks around me were running.
Nearing the exit to the park with a guy playing an electric cello type of instrument. The motorcyclists in the orange hats were volunteers from the Harley Davidson club (who were out in large numbers volunteering along the race course).
The official race photos were free - the company that takes them makes their money by placing the small advertisement in the corner.
After leaving the park, we started along Haight and through the Haight Ashbury neighborhood. Didn't see too many hippies though, in fact mine might have been the longest hair around (and for the record, I never did go to a Dead concert - although I do have some of their albums).
On Haight Street
In the Haight Ashbury neighborhood - I somehow expected more weirdness.
Haight also marked the end of the long up, the race was downhill from here. Kind of. In this race you actually loose most of the altitude in two hills, each only a block or so long. Yeah, really steep hills. Nothing to do but try to lean a bit forward, keep my legs under me, and keep the cadence as high as possible. I knew if I tried to break too much I'd just trash my quads (in running the second half marathon or the second half of the marathon you really need to watch the hills, the downhills that is).
The last part of the race was mostly flat.
But it was also starting to get a little warm too.
And maybe lacking a little in the scenery.
After negotiating the free falls, the hardest part was done, except for finishing. I had been trading places with a couple of young ladies for most of the race and now just tried to keep them in sight. One I managed to pass about a mile from the finish while the other proved to be uncatchable.
Armless Bangle Pump
I collected my medals (one for this race and the other for having run this plus Surf City in the same year) and picked up my gear bag before getting on line for the beer tent -- Sierra Nevada beer! After a quick meetup with KRG and WestCoastRunner, it was time for a greasy burger, some relaxation, and a little more sightseeing.
New additions to the bling collection.
Good race and good beer.
You could even look up your results immediately after the race, except the IT guy was still running apparently.
I had time on Monday morning to get an easy 4 miles in before catching my plane back home -- it was a more typical SF morning; overcast/foggy but still pretty pleasant to run in.
I'm very happy in the results and the pacing -- I went out faster then I planned but was able to hold onto it for a better then expected finish.
A 2:54 PR and 5th in the AG!!
Remarkably even pacing given the hills. Congrats on the PR!
You KILLED that race! And with no taper, wow! Love all the pics. You know I ran that race two years ago in almost the same time, and really loved it. Fun to re-live it. Love that Cali medal - much better than the one I got.
Congrats on 5th AG and over 70% Age rating!
And Yay Shutterfly!
Great race!! And pics too! Were you using a GoPro camera?
Congrats on 5th place AG!!!! I saw that the night of the race and wanted to text you about it SO bad but I didn't want to ruin the surprise if you hadn't checked, yet. SO BA!!!
It was great meeting you! Definitely one of the highlights of my trip!
I ramble...
Damn, NYC better look out! Couple of awesome races with zero taper there. Congrats on the big PR and top 5 in AG! Good luck with marathon training!
I'm using a Garmin Virb camera -- similar to the GoPro in terms of functionality but easier to hold.
Between both races and walking some of the hills of SF, my legs are still a little sore.
Great race and Congrats on a Fantastic run!!!! Nice pictures, thank you for sharing!
Congratulations on the new PR. Great RR and great pictures! It sounds like you had a lot of fun.
Rock on and keep on running.....
Excellent race!! Congrats on the PR-that's awesome! The RR was great, too. Loved the pics.
Have a great run!
Congrats on smashing the PR! Love the race selfies!!
Like a true engineer: "cultural stuff done", then onto the next thing.
Way to grab that PR! Nice pics.
Great report! Congrats on the nice PR, too!
Running has taken me places I never thought I could go.
Awesome PR, and you pics are incredible That had to be one great trip!
You just keep getting faster and faster! And I loved the tour of SF, one of my favorite cities!
Nice Training run!!!!!!! Kind of begs the question...How fast are you?
Awesome job! The free photos are better than most photos you have to pay for!
I loved the pictures - we went there as a family 4 years ago and I knew exactly where you were for most of them. Brought back great memories. Congrats on the new bling - very nice! Thanks for posting all the pictures - made me smile this morning!
Congrats on another PR. It was fun to follow it through the pictures.
Looks like you had quite an amazing time in SF ... and a PR to boot. Nicely done.
Awesome pics, awesome race, awesome bloop! Nice going RE!
Sounds like you had a blast and a great race on top of it - congrats! I enjoyed the pics and RR. My home office used to be right in the heart of Union Square in what is now Tiffanys so I know that area well. Glad you found some culture too - haha!
Good God, that's an impressive half PR! I loveeeeeeeeeeeee all your pics. I can see it getting warmer as the race progressed, but at least the last half was fairly nice elevation-wise. Cannot wait to see how you tear up NYC--you've been ON FIRE this year.
Great race and I love all the pics to show how much fun you had while you were there. Looks like NYC is going to be a great race too!
Run on everyone.....................Steve

The call is a firefighter's worst nightmare - fully involved house fire with the possibility of children trapped inside.
That's how the crews were dispatched to a fire at a York duplex at the corner of West Locust and Sheridan streets Friday morning.
"It changes how you attack the fire," said York City Deputy Fire Chief Gregory Halpin. "Your first priority is protecting life. Instead of attacking the fire, we're in rescue mode."
Fortunately, the children had all been rescued before firefighters arrived at the west-end homes. Anton Jones, 19, the son-in-law of one of the residents, visiting for the holidays, helped shepherd some of the children to safety.
"Thank Jesus for him" Milagaros Orr, Jones' mother-in-law, said, making the sign of the cross. "Everybody is safe. I'm very grateful for that."
It was just before 7 a.m., and Orr had just left for work - she works at a Springettsbury Township dry cleaners - stopping at a convenience store a couple of blocks from her home when Jones called and told her, "The house is on fire."
When she returned, she said, flames were shooting through the windows, and Jones was outside with the children.
"I was only gone a couple of minutes," she said, adding that she was told that the fire started in a closet in the second-floor apartment. "You never know. Thank God the babies got out."
The children were huddled in the back of a minivan while firefighters worked to extinguish the fire. Neighbors brought them clothing and blankets. One young man was shirtless and barefoot, in freezing temperatures, until a neighbor offered clothing and shoes.
"They got out with just with what they had on," Orr said.
The children were taken to a relative's home. Orr and others displaced by the fire met with emergency responders from the Red Cross. She and four others lived in the second-floor apartment at 838 W. Locust St. A single man, who was out of town at the time, lived on the first floor. A family with four children lived in the attached home at 836 W. Locust St.
Both sides of the duplex were left uninhabitable for the 12 who lived there.
The cause of the fire was undetermined. York City Fire Chief Dave Michaels said the cause could not be pinpointed, but it did appear to be accidental and nothing suspicious is suspected.
Who helped
Firefighters from York City, North York, West York, Thomasville York New Salem, York Area United and West Manchester, Manchester and North Codorus townships responded to the three-alarm fire.

Levy on generators
The Proposed P0.40/kwh levy on business self-generators
The Proposed P0.40/kwh levy on business self-generators
Self-generators have been forced to invest in expensive generating equipment because of the failure of Napocor and the distribution utilities to provide satisfactory electric service.
Why they should be know penalized with a universal levy every time they had to use their generators?
Self-generation is an inalienable right that comes with the constitutional right to property and ownership just like the right to build a deep well and pump your own water, the right to grow your own food, mill your own rice, and ride your bike instead of a public transport.
On top of that, under Rule 6 Section 4, if you own a generator;
You must register in 90 days.
Self-generators, regardless of size, must comply with the technical and financial standards to be prescribed by ERC.
Secure a certificate of compliance from the ERC before you operate.
- You must register in 90 days.
Self-generators must now put electric meters on their generators and the Transco will send meter readers regularly to assess the universal charge due.
The "non-by passable" concept of universal levy does not apply to the Philippines because of the existence of a big self-generation sector that came into being because of the power crisis in the early 1990's.
- Universal levy should be applied only to grid supplied power and services.
Is it fair to penalize them with a universal levy?
- Self-generators as a group is a major sector in power & consumption that is largely the country's last line of a protection against total power failure and grid-service inadequacies. Without these self-financed generators the country's industry and commerce would grind to a halt. Yet, the EIRA and its draft IRR is effectively penalizing self-generators by charging them universal levy approx P0.40 per kwh.
- Self- generators are self-practicing businessmen who had to invest precious funds in generating equipment because competitive, reliable, and/or quality power is not assured by the utilities and the government.
- There are at least 1,500 mw of self-generating and stand-by power in the country; approximately 1,000 mw of which are in the Meralco franchise area.
- These are mostly diesel engines ranging in capacity from 20kw to 10mw that are used for standby or peaking power, running up to 10 hours a day. There are also solar, windmill, and mini-hydro generators in the 5 to 50 kw range.
- Most manufacturers, commercial establishments, buildings, resorts, hospitals, private schools, have their own generators at least for stand-by power.
EIRA - Mentions self-generators in two areas.
Section 34 Universal Charge
"Any end-user or self-generating entity not connected to a distribution utility shall remit its corresponding universal charge directly to the Transco."
Sec. 43 (i) (ERC) Allow Transco to charge user fees for ancillary service to all electric power industry participants or self-generating entities connected to the grid.
- Self-generating is not defined by RA 9136.
- Section 34 Universal Charge
Self-Generation Coverage Under the Draft IRR (Nov. 14,2001)
Rule 5 Definition of Terms
"KKKK" "Self-Generation Facility" refers to a power generation facility owned and constructed by an end user for such end-users own consumption or internal use excluding generating sets for households use or those falling below the threshold level fixed by the ERC for this purpose."
Rule 6 Generation Sector
Section 4 (f) "A self-generation company shall remit directly to Transpo the corresponding universal charge set by the ERC. In relation to this, Transco shall have access to the customer side of the meter in order to determine the utilization of such generation facility for the purpose of assessing the corresponding universal charge as provided in Rule 19.
b.1 Section 1 Guiding Principle
No person may engage in generation of electricity as a generation company unless such person has received Certificate of Compliance from the ERC authorizing such person to operate facilities used in generating of electricity.
b.2 Section 2
These rules apply to all facilities used or to be used for the generation of electricity including…(VIII)… "Self-generation facilities".
b.3 Section 4
A person owning an existing generation facility shall register with ERC within 90 days from the effectivity of these rules. A generation company must comply with technical and financial standards under par. (b) of section 4.
Rule 19 The Universal Charge
c.1 Section 1
There shall be a universal charge to be determined, fixed, and approved by the ERC that shall be imposed on all electricity end-users, including self-generation entities.
c.2 Section 5
"Any end-user or self-generation entity not connected to a distribution utility shall remit its corresponding universal charge directly to the Transco.
c.3 Section 7 Fines and Penalties
(b) In cases where a self-generation facility refuses to pay the universal charge, the ERC may impose the appropriate fines and penalties.
- Rule 5 Definition of Terms
What's wrong? Serious Concerns
(1) It is not right for the government to charge a business end-user the universal levy about P0.40/kwh for running his generator during brown outs.
(2) It is not fair to penalize a self-generator for the stranded costs of Meralco and Napocor.
(3) We are effectively adopting a national policy to discourage self-generation.
Self-generation is an inalienable right that comes with the right to property and ownership. Can we imagine the MWSS charging deep-well pump owners a fee for their water?
The huge stand-by power and self-generation capacity in the country is a result of the failure of the electric power sector to satisfactorily serve end-users specially industries. This is unique to the Philippines power infrastructure and must be considered in writing the rules.
Private industry has already been penalized by having to invest in generating facilities when Napocor and Meralco failed to provide competitive and assured power. The universal levy is the salt that will be added to the injury.
Effectively penalizing self-generators by slapping them with a universal charge is to deny them with the ultimate consumer choice, ie. The choice to self-generate power. Consumer choice is the goal of RA 9136.
Self-generation is already inherently expensive power. Nonetheless it is the ultimate competitor to grid supplied power and must not be penalized nor discouraged. The DU's must win them back competitive and reliable power and not by legislative fiat.
Penalizing self-generators with the universal levy will increase their cost of power and make them even less competitive which is contrary to the declared objective of the power deregulation law
Self-generators did not factor-in this universal levy that can alter their economics. If there is a change in law an argument can be made in fact that the self-generators generating facilities can be entitled technically to stranded cost recovery.
Even self-generators using renewable energies such as solar, wind, and hydro are being penalized instead of being encouraged. Is this really the intent of the law?
A national levy containing stranded costs of distribution utilities and Napocor is a form of inter-grid cross subsidies that is precisely being eliminated by the Act.
- The "non-by-passable" concept of universal levy that was borrowed from foreign deregulations need to be modified for the Philippines because of the uniquely large self-generation capacity. These countries did not suffer the power crisis the Philippines did in the early 1990's.
Definition of "Self-Generation" facility under Rule 5 is too narrow. It is limited to "owned and constructed" by and end-user." (What if an end-user leases the equipment and did not construct the facility)?
CORRECT THE DEFINITION OF SELF-GENERATION UNDER Rule 5 "Definitions"
"Self-Generation facility," for purpose of these implementing rules and regulations, refers to a power generation facility dedicated to serve the end-users own consumption or internal requirements, and generating electricity that goes through either the wires of a power distribution utility or the transmission facilities of Transco".
Self-generated power should be exempted from the universal levy.
Self-generators of 750 kw and smaller should be exempted from obtaining an authority to operate from the ERC and from being subjected to operating, technical and financial standards. 750 kw is the declared threshold contestable market under RA 9136.
- The Ancillary charges of the Transco should be included in the pricing for emergency or capacity fee arrangements. It must not be based on the electricity generated by the self-generators.

Teams in a dust-up over state of Exmouth's pitch
Posted: February 07, 2013|
A WAR of words has broken out between Exmouth and Redingensians over Saturday's non-event on the Imperial Ground.
Redingensians travelled down from Berkshire for the game, then refused to play as their officials felt the pitch was unfit.
Exmouth were left fuming by the visitors' decision as the view from the Cockles' camp was the pitch was playable.
Plymouth-based referee Richard Harding was the hapless man in the middle as the clubs argued it out.
At Exmouth's level and below the referee can't rule on the fitness of the ground before a match starts, but he can stop a game once it has kicked off.
"With a bit of common sense the game could have been played, but Redingensians were not interested," said Exmouth's director of rugby Chris Wright.
"There were sticky spots around the half-way line, but we had put some sawdust down to soak them up.
"From a scrummaging aspect it is not a vital area of the pitch where you are worried about positioning or footing.
"It is a winter game for heaven's sake. To be honest I don't understand why Redingensians didn't want to play."
Gareth Rees, the Redingensians secretary, said Exmouth were trying to 'disguise' the state of their ground and it is his club who have suffered most.
Rees also claimed Exmouth said the day before the match it was unlikely to be played – claims hotly denied by Wright.
"The pitch was unplayable," said Rees. "The right-hand side of the pitch was a quagmire and unfit.
"Clearly significant work had been effected to prepare the pitch but it hadn't succeeded and a covering of wood shavings did not disguise that fact.
"In discussions with the referee it was clear that his options were that the scrummages would have to be moved but the area was such that the pitch position of the scrummage would be significantly different – the alternative was uncontested scrummaging.
"To start a game with that imminent probability is a nonsense and turns rugby union into a quasi-rugby league game.
"Frankly we consider we are the injured party – this is a very long away trip, which we have to repeat at considerable cost of around £800."
Wright was quick to dispute claims Exmouth warned Reds about the fitness of the pitch.
"I made that call and told them I was confident the game would go ahead and there would only be a problem if we had any more rain, which we didn't," said Wright.
Exmouth return to league action this Saturday – weather permitting – with a home game against Avonmouth. No date has been confirmed for the Redingensians re-match. The next free date is February 23, when both clubs have county cup games.
Newton Abbot will need to continue the improvement they showed to beat Malvern 15-14 when Old Patesians visit Rackerhayes this Saturday.
Pats, who are halfway up the table, will be a tougher proposition than lowly Malvern, although with home advantage Newton ought to start as favourites.
Roy Henderson, Newton's director of rugby, said after the 83-17 drubbing at Weston recently nothing can be assumed about any game.
"After what happened at Weston, we were just glad to come home from Malvern with a win – no matter how narrow," said Henderson.
Ed McGinley and Sam Jones crossed for tries for Newton, with Rob Avery-Wright slotting a conversion and penalty.

This information has been set-up to help you understand REACH and how Shell Commercial Fuels is preparing.
What is REACH?
REACH is the European Union (EU) regulatory system for chemicals, including petroleum substances used in our fuel and bitumen products. It came into force on 1 June 2007. By 30 November 2010, all substances manufactured or imported in quantities of over 1000 tonnes per year must be registered with the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). This includes all substances used in our fuels and bitumen products.
Registration of product uses
Registration of Shell products under REACH will include the registration of specific product uses. Downstream users of our products are responsible for reviewing the product-specific use information and deciding whether it describes the way in which they use the products. If, however, the products are being used in a way that is not described, your feedback is invited, so we can consider supporting the use.
Exposure scenarios
For substances used in our fuel and bitumen products, we have to demonstrate that a registered use is safe. This is done by carrying out a risk assessment that compares the estimated exposure for each use against a level that may be considered safe for health and/or the environment. If safe use cannot be demonstrated, then the registration of a specific use cannot be supported and advice must be given against this use.
The information describing the nature of exposure and the recommended risk management measures for the various identified uses will be documented in an Exposure Scenario and communicated to customers through an extended Safety Data Sheet.
Identified uses
REACH requires that most of the work to prepare registrations is carried out jointly by all EU manufacturers of the products concerned. So the list of identified substance uses has been prepared by the association of oil refiners, CONCAWE, with the aim of covering the common uses of our products which we propose to support. The list can be accessed via the following link:
How to review and respond to information on uses
Our customers have an important part to play in helping to ensure we have a full picture of the uses of our products. This not only ensures that uses are correctly submitted as part of our registrations but that the exposure scenarios take known uses into account and provide the appropriate risk management measures.
So, what should customers do to support this process?
- Become familiar with the basics of how use information is documented. This is explained in the ECHA Use Descriptor System.
- Go to the product use lists. Review the titles and scope covered by the listed Exposure Scenarios. Consider whether this reflects your uses of that substance - and beyond, down into the supply chain. If you recognize your operation here, you can expect that your uses have been addressed.
- If necessary, share all of this use information further into the supply chain (the manufacturer or importer's responsibility stops at sharing information with their immediate customers).
- If, on completing your review, you think you use the product in a way that is not covered in a use descriptor, we welcome your feedback. Please provide as much information as you can on your use of the product, but do NOT provide confidential information on the commercial application of the product or any other commercially sensitive information.

Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook shows off new iPad Air and iPad Mini tablets. (Glenn Chapman / AFP)
- Filed Under
WASHINGTON — Tech giants Microsoft, Google and Apple invested more than five times the amount spent by five of the largest US defense companies on research-and-development (R&D) projects in 2013, according to data compiled by a noted defense analyst.
But the five defense companies Boeing Defense, L-3 Communications, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and Raytheon, all of which were in the top 10 of the 2013 Defense News Top 100 defense companies list collectively spent about $800 million more on internal R&D in 2013 than they did in 2012, according to the data.
In all, the three big tech companies spent $18.8 billion more than the defense companies on these R&D projects in 2013, according to data compiled by Byron Callan, an analyst with Capital Alpha Partners. Over the same time frame the five defense companies spent a total of $4.1 billion on R&D projects, while Google spent $8 billion, Apple $4.5 billion and Microsoft $10.4 billion.
Those numbers kind of just stagger me that some of the tech giants are spending more than the five major primes combined, Callan said.
I just find it very intriguing that theres such a misalignment between what these big guys are spending in absolute terms and what the US sector is spending, he said.
One reason for the disparity in R&D investment could be that the Defense Department has relatively few cutting-edge, major programs starting in the coming years, Callan said.
In some cases, the Pentagon has opted to slow or cancel new programs, due to shrinking defense spending. Congress has also signaled it will not allow DoD to cancel certain programs, thus preventing the Pentagon from freeing up funds that could have been invested in R&D projects, Callan said.
If you keep money in these older, legacy programs or you havent freed up money for some of these newer things that would see a promise of a payoff if someone takes some risk, then this a dog chasing its tail, Callan said.
Company R&D spending has been closely monitored by DoD in recent years, particularly as the Pentagon sees its own development coffers come under pressure as defense budgets tighten.
Last year, Frank Kendall, DoD undersecretary for acquisition, technology and logistics, challenged the defense industry to spend more money on R&D projects. The reaction from primes has been mixed.
For smaller companies, the reaction to the R&D challenge has also been mixed. Some medium-sized companies argue that having less cash on hand than larger companies could limit the pace at which they conduct R&D.
Callan said the size of the company does not necessarily determine how much the firm will invest in R&D.
I dont think its necessarily a small-to-mid-sized company phenomena, he said. Its kind of a sector phenomena.
William Lynn, the CEO of Finmeccanica North America and DRS Technologies, said his company saw its revenue fall as the US decreased its war spending. Still, it has protected its R&D spending.
You cant spend too much, but we try to balance protecting our margins and protecting our future, and we try not to stray too far in one direction or the other, he said. Were willing to take some short-term decline in margins, modest, to protect our longer-term competitiveness.
For a company like DRS, which builds sensors and other types of high-tech electronic equipment used by the larger prime contractors, being on the cutting edge is key, Lynn said.
If we dont stay up with the technology, the government or the primes wont come to us, he said. Its a death spiral for us and so we do have to protect that [but] you cant go to zero margins either; youve got to balance it.
Callan argues there is a misalignment between DoD and what it wants industry to do. There is a need for a better path of programs or prototypes where we could recover some of the money invested, he said.
Theyre not creating the lanes to encourage firms to take more risk and put more of their own skin in the game, he said. I think its fruitless in some ways to ask for industry to spend more money without at the same time pushing much harder to make sure that theres some competitive programs that that investment might have some promise of return.
One way to help the small companies could be for DoD to align more toward DARPA R&D programs or prototyping projects, Callan said. DARPAs 2015 budget request of $2.9 billion is $136 million, or roughly 5 percent higher than fiscal 2014 enacted levels. ■

A statement issued by the U.S. attorney's office in Austin says Boyd was sentenced to two years and nine months in prison. He could have gotten up to nine years in prison.
A jury found Boyd guilty in November of filing fraudulent income tax returns in 2004, 2005 and 2006, reporting no income each year. Boyd said he believed that only federal employees, federal contractors and investors in federal securities owed income taxes.
Boyd was a defensive back at Arizona. He was Miami's 13th-round pick in the 1973 NFL draft before being traded to New England, where he played in 1973. He played in New Orleans in 1974.

The New Argonauts -- More Hellenic AlchemyThe Hellenic Alchemy feat in The New Argonauts gives an alternate way to craft magic items suitable for the ancient Greek setting. While the feat doesn't require spellcaster levels, most of the items you can create with it require special body parts from the strange monsters of the ancient Greek world. The book includes a few items of this type, and this article adds a few more. Each provides standard d20 game stats and creation requirements, plus the special requirements if you're using the Hellenic Alchemy feat. Over time I'll add more until there's a magic item for every Greek monster presented in the book (not counting giants and other mostly-human things), at which point I'll make a printer-friendly downloadable PDF of this article.
Pricing explanations appear after each item in green text.
Requires use of the Dungeons & Dragons® Third Edition Core Books, published by Wizards of the Coast, Inc. This document utilizes updated material from the v. 3.5 revision.
For the curious, this item deliberately doesn't have an enhancement bonus. The magic effect on the shield has nothing to do with making it better as a shield, so you don't need an enhancement bonus on the item.
As with the previous shield, this deliberately doesn't have an enhancement bonus and doesn't need one.
Dragon Soldier Tooth: This magical dragon's tooth must be planted in the ground to activate its power. One round after planting a tooth, a human soldier (equivalent to a 4th-level fighter, use Greek Officer stats from The New Argonauts Chapter 9: Monsters) springs up from the earth at that location. This soldier is utterly loyal to the person who planted it, willing even to sacrifice his life for his commander. The soldier does not affect the commander's ability to acquire followers or cohorts. He is not a magical creature and never reverts back to his toothy origins, even if slain. Dragon soldier teeth are rare and usually found singly, though stories tell of heroes who found enough to sow a field with them. The crafting process only creates one at a time.
Another way to look at the pricing is to use my standardd estimated feat cost: 5,000 gp for a first-tier feat (one that doesn't have any prereqs), 10,000 for a second-tier feat (one that has one feat as a prerequisite), and so on. Since this shield works much like Stunning Fist (a second-tier feat), we can estimate its cost at 10,000gp. Though the feat technically requires an action to use, that action is part of making an attack, so it's already a quasi-free action (it doesn't cost you any more time than simply making a regular attack), so making the shield's ability a free action is comparable. The feat also lets you attempt multiple stuns per day (minimum of two if you're buying the feat and not a monk) whereas this item only lets you attempt one stun per day, so again it should cost less than an item that actually gives you the Stunning Fist feat.
For the curious, the DC is based on the gorgon Euryale's hit dice and Charisma modifier (Euryale is one of the three original gorgons, along with Sthenno and Medusa).
As with the other shields in presented here, this deliberately doesn't have an enhancement bonus and doesn't need one.

If you are narrow minded, spoiled, prissy or if you expect us to bow to unreasonable whims, or you're the type that is afraid for their safety and/or belongings and thinks the rest of the world is out to get you, don't come here. We live in a ordinary, safe and quiet neighborhood where it's perfectly normal not to lock doors and worry about such things, even though we have lockers and a safe and all that. The way we do things here is: simple, honest, efficient; please respect the house, it's rules (mostly regarding hygiene and respectful behavior), the efforts of the people that run it and the community that has grown around it.
Take your time, study the reviews (there's 1000+), that's what choosing the right hostel for you is about - ESPECIALLY those of unhappy guests because they tell a good story - if you recognize yourself in them, please skip the booking and save all of us the trouble, no money is worth the time and energy such people require. Also, if it's only the price that appeals to you, DON'T book. Though it's necessary, money is not our primary goal - we value our place too much to let just anyone stay here and ruin the atmosphere for the rest. Yes, we make selections. The long years of running this place have taught us much – we've had more than 20,000 people here, so I think we are entitled to claim a bit of know-how :) We don't believe this house is for just anyone, so make sure you read this text because we have had enough of ignorant tourists, their fake smiles and the complications they create - this is a place for travelers and those who have common sense and an easy going approach to life. Troublesome, complicated people will be asked kindly to leave the hostel (and i will refer to exactly this introduction if it comes to that) and go somewhere else, we'll gladly recommend another hostel more suited for those who misread this text and somehow end up booking here, no problem. Hope you get the basic idea, please let me invite you to continue reading about the house and thank you for understanding.
The house is a simple, clean, warm and cozy place, run by friends, as well as an ongoing ambiance & art project, with many contributions and handmade items from different places. We prefer simplicity, honesty, spontaneity, community, common sense, talks, exchange of ideas, to see who you are and what you do - as long as you respect the house and the people in and around it, you'll have all our knowledge and resources at your disposal.
LOCATION: READ THE DIRECTIONS ON HOSTELWORLD how to find us, they're easy and precise. We're located 15-20 min. by tram from the center, in a peaceful neighborhood, as well as 15 minutes walking from the nature park 'Grmošćica', located on the foothills of Medvednica, the local mountain. Ideal if you love hiking & nature. Feel free to ask for tips, also read more below regarding hiking.
As one of the first hostels in Zagreb, we stay true to our reputation as a very friendly place - we really take care of our guests:
• No over-bookings - in case of human error (happens sometimes), we'll book another hostel for you and pay the taxi to take you there.
• If, in above case, there's a price difference not in your favor, we cover it.
• If, in above case, no free beds can be found in the city, you sleep at a friend's place, free of charge.
• In summer it often happens that the city is full - you can come to our place and we'll see to it that you don't sleep in the train or bus station.
• You don't pay for anything else except the bed you booked (see below also)
****** Stuff you can do & have here at the hostel - besides Sleeping: D *******
•You're welcome to join us in exploring Zagreb - we'll show you places outside the tourist mainstream, the secret haunts of the city etc., if you're interested in that.
•You can have free yoga lessons - in summer, that's the yoga terrace, under starlight & with candles, just let Igor know on time.
•certified massage by Anna, for an excellent price.
•Other free stuff: laundry, coffee/tea, random food
• Sexy, superfast fiber optics internet
• Free bikes for guests that stay longer – Zagreb is
excellent for bike tours
• Free local wine, and not just some cheap swill: D
•Community dinners, after a market day (see below). Ask us on time, this takes time to organize and is not done as a routine. Nothing here is. Except the cleaning: D
•People who are interested in local culture are most welcome to join us on a market day - it's a lovely event and one of the genuine local things to experience.
•If you're into hiking, let us know – the area around Zagreb is wonderful, if there's time, I'll invite you to join me and Fenris the dog in exploring some of the sites.
• Possible (depending on staff schedule): trips to very special out-of-city locations (ask at the reception). Cost: guest shared - gasoline (and car rental, if necessary because of more people), nothing else.
• Special note to gamers: Numenera & Planescape sessions available, ask at reception!
•We can give you invaluable insider advice on Zagreb and Croatia, as well as access to the social network. Don't be shy, don't hesitate to ask us, some of us have traveled enough around here to know a thing or two.
The house is also ideal if you just want to have a quiet time on your own, bothered by no one, to do your own thing – Mali Mrak is *NOT* a party hostel, we don't do pubcrawls, drinking games or similar routines.
Also, for those who are traveling on a budget and have certain skills- if you can and feel like it, feel free to contribute /upgrade the house in a specific way - we love that (especially the art section has grown in the meantime) - create something and in return you can get a discount or a free stay. You certainly wouldn't be the first, and we are known to support travelers in many more ways than just giving convenient bed prices. Work for stay & food available, contact us via email for that.
See you around - or not , if this text offended you :)
The City Tax (7kn per person per night or cca. 1€) is not included in the room price you book online. We have to charge it in any case, and since many wonder what that is, here goes: it's not something any hostel makes up, it's just that - a city tax that goes to the state of Croatia, a way to make money. We must charge it, and keep it separately because of account keeping, so we rather choose not to incorporate it into the bed price (that means: raising that same price for said amount and proclaim 'no additional tax') and charge it separately and show it on your bill.
Card are accepted, but the 3% bank fee is paid by YOU, not the hostel!
That's all, folks!

The playoff races in the NHL are heating up. Some teams have virtually guaranteed themselves a spot, while others are basically out of it and will be selling their players at the deadline (Feb. 27). In this post I'm making predictions on where teams will end up in each conferences playoff positions and what match ups we can then expect in the first round. I might as well include points in these predictions too, just for fun!
Eastern Conference
- New York Rangers – 112 points
- Boston Bruins – 106 points
- Florida Panthers – 94 points
- Pittsburgh Penguins – 102 points
- New Jersey Devils – 102 points
- Philadelphia Flyers – 100 points
- Washington Capitals – 94 points
- Ottawa Senators – 93 points
You may notice that the main change in the standings I expect is for the Capitals to pass both Ontari...Read More

If I could, I put the annotation
@ApplicationException(rollback=true) on it. But it comes already compiled, generated from wsdl as the operation comes
with the some soap-faults.
Have you tried storing the ejb-jar.xml deployment descriptor in the WEB-INF directory?
the ear consist of couple of ejb-modules, just put to the root of the ear and declared in application.xml
Each ejb-module (jar-file) have META-INF directory in it and possibly ejb-jar.xml there.
I declared an exception to be application-exception in the ejb-jar.xml for the ejb-based webservice endpoint.
I hope I do nothing wrong.
Naren Chivukula wrote:I'm just getting into EJB3.1 and other related JEE 5 technologies. I feel having ejb-jar.xml in WEB-INF directory just to deploy EJBs in web application is very odd, why not use Enterprise archive in that case! Don't know how many these kind of weird changes in JEE 5 I have to get over with!

New Trailer For The Return Of Young Justice
Young Justice and Green Lantern: The Animated Series went on an unexpected hiatus back in mid-October. Many fans were left scratching their heads wondering what happened. While we never got a good answer about it, the two shows are coming back January 5th as we found out a little over a week ago. Cartoon Network has released a new teaser trailer giving us a look at the rest of the season. If you paid attention to a few scenes, you probably saw glimpses of Deathstroke and Static.
After Young Justice's return, DC Nation will be working towards the premiere of Beware the Batman and Teen Titans Go! later in 2013, probably coinciding with the season finales of Young Justice and Green Lantern. Saturday, January 5 at 10 am ET is the date, fans. What do you think of the trailer?

Olivia Palermo Becomes A Style Star For...The Orthodox Community?
Though it may come as a surprise that such an experimental dresser could be an icon for the Orthodox community, going through OP's looks, it becomes clear that she does incorporate a ladylike sophistication that any woman, conservative or not, could aspire to.
"She really knows how to put herself together, not everything Olivia Palermo wears is modest, [but] she does wear a lot of long, flowy skirts and blouses," says Orthodox style blogger Sharon Langert. "It's very classy how she dresses."
Classy indeed. As it becomes easier and easier to find mainstream looks to suit more restrictive dressing codes, we're looking forward to discovering more unexpected Orthodox style stars, plus designers tailoring their designs to these limitations. And yep, if the looks are as chic as Olivia's long and layered wares, we're bound to buy them too, conservative or not. (Buzzfeed)
