Citizens' Festival hosted by Federal President in Berlin
On 12 September 2015, Federal President Joachim Gauck invited people to attend the fourth Citizens' Festival in the park and Bellevue Palace in Berlin. There was a wide range of fringe events taking place under the banner "Palace Open Day". MobileKids has also been there.
Best Practice: Bicycle course at the Carl-von-Ossietzky School
On the bicycle course at the Carl-von-Ossietzky School in Berlin, the children learn to ride a bicycle correctly – and have lots of fun in the process. The project combines road safety with play, thereby setting a good example in safety education.
Circuit for kids at the DTM in Norisring
Not only adults are behind the wheel at the DTM race event. In the MobileKids traffic safety school the kids were able to demonstrate their driving skills and obtain the kid's driving licence.
100 years of the Sindelfingen plant, and MobileKids in on the action!
At the 100-year celebration for the Sindelfingen plant there was also plenty on offer for the junior visitors from MobileKids besides the sunshine. The kids particularly enjoyed the road safety circuit, the button station and the buzzer game.
MobileKids in Frankfurt, at the city of games
MobileKids was a guest at the city of games in Frankfurt! Here the kids were able to enjoy an exciting road safety quiz, colouring images of Moki and making their own buttons.
Reward points at the German-French elementary school in Sillenbuch
As part of the 2014/2015 MobileKids School Days, the German-French elementary school in Sillenbuch, Stuttgart was to become "car-free". This is because many parents brought their children directly to the school gates by car – thereby endangering the other children. A cleverly conceived reward system caused the parents to rethink their behaviour.
Introducing Germany's fittest MobileKids
True to their adopted motto "Taking responsibility for one another", two classes from the third year of Brander Feld elementary school mentored the first-year children, providing them with help and advice. This interdisciplinary peer-to-peer approach won this year's MobileKids School Days.
Road safety education in Poland
MobileKids worldwide: learning the rules of the road is turned into a fun day out at the road safety park in Warsaw.
Road safety education in Romania
MobileKids worldwide: children in Romania are being trained to become traffic heroes with interactive lessons, online offers and radio campaigns.
Road safety education in Russia
At Mercedes-Benz in Russia, road safety has a high priority too. A festival for families in Sokolniki Park in Moscow featured a 255-square-metre road safety park for children.

Payrolls for city and county governments in Sonoma County shrank last year, along with the size of the workforce, according to a data released Tuesday by the state Controller's Office.
Officials said the $32.2 million reduction in public wages and the slashing of 453 jobs came in response to the economic downturn, which reduced property and sales tax revenues.
"We had fewer resources," said Chris Thomas, a deputy Sonoma County administrator, prompting "cuts to services and workforce."
Jennifer Phillips, Santa Rosa's assistant city manager, said local governments throughout the state were forced to lay off workers and eliminate vacant jobs.
"I know of few cities that didn't have significant decreases in staffing," she said. "That's how we addressed the fiscal crisis."
There were 1,129 local government public employees earning $100,000 or more last year in Sonoma County, down from nearly 1,200 in 2009.
Sonoma County, by far the largest local agency, cut payroll spending to $288 million last year, down 7.8 percent from $312 million the year before, according to wage reports compiled by the state Controller's Office.
Thomas said the county had eliminated 350 positions in the past two budget years, fewer than the 479 job reduction cited by the controller's report. But the county also eliminated a number of temporary positions funded by federal stimulus money.
Mandatory time-off-without-pay policies adopted in 2009 and continued last year helped the county cut wage spending by $24 million, he said.
Santa Rosa's payroll was $101 million last year, 2.4 percent less than in 2009.

Is there anyone in the nation's capital busier than President Obama? Hardly. Which makes it amazing that amid all of the demands of the nation's highest office, President Obama has actually, and rather surprisingly, emerged as quite the ladies man. So, for Valentine's Day, we're making a close examination of perhaps the most under-analyzed aspect of his presidency to date: His flair for giving a kiss.
President Obama is roundly celebrated for his deft speaking abilities, but we've noticed he has mastered a whole other art of lip service, too. And the proof of his mastery has been captured countless times with photos of the president getting cozy with a host of political figures and world leaders.
As you look through these photographs, take note of the president's signature kissing technique, as it reveals a whole new dimension of his persona. President Obama, typically the picture of calm and poise, throws caution to the wind and lets his lips fall where they may, much to the delight of those on the receiving end.
For starters, take the president's embrace with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi at the National Prayer Breakfast earlier this month, an encounter in which he pressed his lips dangerously close to her grinning mouth -- a captivating sight to be sure.
Then there's the lingering, closed-eyed nuzzle with U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice Elena Kagan, where he seemed to savor the sweet scent of her perfume. Perhaps the most intriguing moment snapped by a photographer was the love-struck expression on Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard's face when the president held her close for a hug and began to close in for a kiss, her eyes closed as if lost in a timeless rapture. If this series of photos tell a story, it's that Barack Obama is so much more than the nation's Commander-in-Chief. He's our Lover-in-Chief.
The Lover-in-Chief does not merely show affection to the many, many women he encounters. He's an equal opportunity and noticeably bi-partisan lover, embracing men from both sides of the aisle (in addition to all those women). Indeed, you'll see a photo of him gently comforting Arizona Senator John McCain, after having outpaced him in the 2008 presidential election. And you'll be exposed to a scene you may think you'd never behold: a photo of him and George W. Bush hugging it out. Among all of those images of the president caught in the act, you'll certainly see shots of him planting some smooches on the lips of his main squeeze, Michelle. Although, from the looks of it, we're not sure she's his only Valentine this year ...

"From now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view…Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation. -Paul in 2nd Corinthians 5
Two weeks ago today, I had the privilege to go with 10 black preachers and 10 white preachers in Churches of Christ on a bus ride all over the South to see where some of the most historical Civil Rights events had happened.
It was one of the highlights of my life.
We worshipped in Dexter Avenue Baptist Church, we spent time in the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham (where four little black girls were killed by a KKK bomb). We saw where Rosa Parks got on the bus, we marched over the Edmund Pettus bridge in Selma, and we got to spend several hours with Dr. Fred Grey, a life long preacher in Churches of Christ, who also happened to be the lawyer for Dr. King, Rosa Parks, and the Montgomery Bus Boycott.
We got to see and touch (and pretend to preach behind) the very pulpit Dr. King used. It was the pulpit they used when filming the movie Selma, it was a piece of history and it was just standing out in the open in the church basement Bible Class room.
In one of my favorite moments from the trip, someone asked our tour guide/church member "Why don't you have Dr. King's pulpit in a case or behind plastic protection?"
She said 'Because were going to be using it Sunday at 9:30!"
In other words, "We are a church, we were just doing church work then, were doing it still and we're going to keep doing just good local church work."
That's what impressed me the most about this trip, all these churches were so, well churchy.
Did you know that the Deacons of Dexter Avenue Baptist fired the next preacher after Dr. King? Like any church, they have argued and fought over everything from paying utility bills to what kind of songs they would sing. They are a regular local church, warts and all.
But looking back through history, we know now that weren't just that.
They were living the dream.
But I'd like to ask who's dream?
Paul the Prophet
The classically trained scholar Sarah Ruden, tells a story in her great book "Paul Among the People" about being in an ivy league class talking about classical literature when the subject of St. Paul came up. And one of her peers began to rail against Paul for his condemnation of sorcery.
Her classmate said that to her sorcery meant "just the ability to project my power and essence." And just about everyone in the class nodded their head in agreement. Yes, Paul was such a repressive brute.
Sarah said she would have sighed too, except that suddenly an image flashed into her mind of just what kind of world St. Paul lived in and just what sorcery would've meant in his Greco-Roman context.
She remembered reading the Roman poet Horace's story of a small boy buried up to his neck who had been left to starve to death while staring at food, so that his liver and bone marrow, which must now be filled with his frenzied longing, could serve as a love charm.
They would change the meal out 3 times a day, with the most delicious of foods so that the starving boy would be driven out of his mind with longing as he slowly died from starvation.
And then a rich man would buy his bones as a love potion because he thought some girl was cute.
Reading that probably bothers you, but I want you to see the world that Paul was actually planting churches in, so you can see that Paul isn't just railing against Harry Potter. He was taking on something that we can see clearly now as evil. But only because we have been given his Christian imagination.
Paul spent his life taking on some of history's most institutionalized systemic evils. He was taking the truly good news of the Gospel to the entire known world, and changing people's imagination for how things ought to be.
He was giving the world his dream about the Kingdom of God.
The problem we have when we talk about Paul is that we take cruise ships to see the cities that he walked months to get to. We watch videos or look at pictures to see where he, as a middle aged man, backpacked and bled to be at.
The problem we have with Paul is that we aren't bleeding for these truths, we are bored with them. And we forgot just how deep, radical and beautiful they really are.
You may see Paul as some oppressive, sexist, pro-slavery and anti-freedom guy who talks too much about sex because he's single and doesn't get to have any.
But every category that I just mentioned is one that Paul gave you, and spent his life fighting against.
Before MLK had a dream, Paul had a vision and it's one that we need more than ever today.
Racism and the Kingdom of God
These days we talk a lot about racism. We say things that sound so obvious, like "You shouldn't be racist.' But I'd like to ask why? Because for thousands of years no one really thought that was a problem. Of course, you would consider your race to be better than others, it was your race after all.
We say things like all people are created equal like it's the most obvious thing in the world. But why would anyone think that? It's not obvious, in fact, the exact opposite it true. The equality of human beings is actually anything but self-evident.
The senior in the wheelchair doesn't strike anyone as equal to the virile young man. The boy with Down Syndrome is anything but equal to the young winner of the recent beauty pageant. Unless…
You have in someway been shaped by the story of the Bible, a story where the image of God is in everyone, no matter their age, gender, appearance or status in life.
The problem with today's world is that we have these revolutionary ideas but we don't know where we got them. It's not just a part of being a good human being to be kind to the people you disagree with, mercy isn't the default nature of mankind, and justice isn't the default state of the universe.
The problem with the Western world is that we have just enough Christian roots to know the problem, but we've forgotten the solution.
Did you know that the word kindness comes from the word kin, as in your family. This is because we tend to like people who are like us.
But Jesus had a different vision.
His people were, His family would be a family of a thousand different backgrounds, races, statuses nationalities and kinds.
Jesus had this radical idea that because of His work on the Cross we wouldn't try to build their identity on who they were better than, but by the overwhelming, overpowering love of God.
This is what Jesus started and Paul planted. The Church is a city within a city, a church of different's that can make a difference.
A Diverse city of people.
A Church of a Different Kind.

Hatchery to drive salmon upstream due to dam construction delay
August 27, 2013
With the Issaquah Creek dam renovation falling behind schedule, trucks will take spawning salmon upstream.
For a number of reasons, some vague, the project completion date has been pushed back from Sept. 15 to sometime in early to mid-October. That will heavily interfere with the spawning run of returning chinook and coho salmon. As a contingency, Issaquah Salmon Hatchery workers will gather the fish, truck them to a point beyond the construction and return them to the creek.
Sasquatch family helps drivers avoid $99 ticket
August 27, 2013
The Washington State Department of Natural Resources has launched a video campaign featuring a Sasquatch family to remind people that a Discover Pass is required when visiting Washington state-managed recreation lands.
The video is available at bit.ly/SquatchFamily.
The Discover Pass is a vehicle access pass required on all Washington state-managed recreation lands. The fine for not displaying a Discover Pass is $99.
Beaver Lake will get 1,200 large hatchery rainbow trout for Aug. 21
August 16, 2013
NEW – 5:45 p.m. Aug. 16, 2013
Get out your fishing pole. It will soon be time to catch large trout in Beaver Lake, thanks to the release of about 1,200 hatchery rainbows averaging about 1 pound each.
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife is scheduled to release the fish Aug. 20. The agency will close the Beaver Lake access site at sunset Aug. 19 and reopen the site at sunrise Aug. 21. Beaver Lake, however, will remain open to fishing while the access site is closed.
The trout are part of an educational display at the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery.
New 'Fish Washington' logos are announced
April 23, 2013
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife now has a new set of "Fish Washington" logos designed to help symbolize the state's many great fishing opportunities.
WDFW tallied more than 1,800 votes on new logo designs via the department website and Facebook page. Now, with a few tweaks based on public suggestions, the winning set of logos has been chosen. The logos selected depict trout and bass with backgrounds of Washington state waters and wilderness.
"Fish Washington" is a new effort by the department to inform anglers about fishing opportunities in Washington via a variety of communications platforms.
Season's first bears are spotted locally
April 2, 2013
Welcoming back spring also means welcoming back bears.
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife heard the first spring reports of bears in the Issaquah and North Bend area during the week of March 18. Though wildlife appearance is a little early for the season, the department credited the abnormally mild winter with disrupting regular hibernation habits. That means regions of Issaquah should begin looking out for the scavenging animals.
"The Issaquah Highlands and Mirrormont are probably one of our biggest focus areas," said Rich Beausoleil, department bear and cougar specialist.
Explore state, national parks at no cost for Martin Luther King Jr. Day
January 15, 2013
NEW — 10 a.m. Jan. 15, 2013
Washingtonians can observe Martin Luther King Jr. Day in Lake Sammamish State Park and other state facilities, Tiger Mountain State Forest and other state forestlands, or in national forests and parks.
Officials at the agencies responsible for state and national public lands waived admission fees for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, a federal holiday.
Visitors do not need a Discover Pass to visit state parks, including Lake Sammamish and Squak Mountain near Issaquah.
Mount Rainier National Park waived entrance fees to the 235,625-acre park. Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest is waiving fees at more than 74 day-use sites in the forest.
Throughout the year, state and national parks waive entrance fees to promote outdoor recreation.
More kokanee return as community works to restore species

Lake Sammamish kokanee salmon — a landlocked cousin of sockeye and a species noted for distinctive red coloration — dwindled in recent decades, since before Wally Pereyra moved into a house along Ebright Creek in 1973.
State offers grants to restore fish, wildlife habitat
November 28, 2012
NEW — 8 a.m. Nov. 28, 2012
The state Department of Fish and Wildlife is offering grants for residents and organizations interested in fish and wildlife conservation.
The agency expects to have about $1 million from the Aquatic Land Enhancement Account available for the grants.
The program is open to residents and organizations — including nonprofit organizations, schools and universities, American Indian tribes and local conservation districts — for volunteer projects related to conservation or to help the public enjoy and understand animal species.
Through the grants, officials fund projects related to habitat, research, education and outreach, facility development and artificial production — although the agency intends to consider other projects. Grants cannot go toward salaries, wages or stipends.
State adds flexible start date to Discover Pass
November 23, 2012
NEW — 6 a.m. Nov. 23, 2012
State agencies encourage holiday shoppers to consider a Discover Pass as a gift for family and friends interested in the outdoors.
Officials added a feature recently to allow purchasers to choose the pass' start date. The option is available to customers who purchasing the pass at www.discoverpass.wa.gov, or in person from authorized retailers through the Washington Interactive Licensing Database, or WILD, system.
The pass is available in Issaquah at Big 5 Sporting Goods, Fred Meyer and Sports Authority.
The buyer can activate the pass immediately or on any day within one year of purchase.
State legislators passed the option into law in 2012 to allow greater flexibility to outdoor recreation enthusiasts, including people interested in giving the pass as a gift.
Under new state laws, residents face fines for feeding bears
November 13, 2012
Under new state laws, residents face fines for feeding bears intentionally or otherwise, such as by leaving food waste in bear-prone locations.
The state Department of Fish and Wildlife reminded residents about the changes last month, as black bears start to appear more frequently in areas populated by humans.
"This is the time of year when bears are looking to build up as much fat as possible to get through winter," Mike Cenci, deputy Department of Fish and Wildlife police chief, said in a statement. "Putting food scraps out for them or leaving garbage cans or pet food exposed is an open invitation for them to pay you and your neighbors a visit."

Is dying her hair blonde an attempt to con the producers of Dancing With The Stars to cast her again? "Audrina Patridge? Who is this Audrina Patridge you speak of? My name is Shmaudrina Shmatridge!"

Iceland Did it Right...and Everyone Else is Doing it WrongQuicklink submitted by Scott Baker Permalink
Become a Fan
(69 fans)
|Nobel prize winning economist Joe Stiglitz notes:
What Iceland did was right. It would have been wrong to burden future generations with the mistakes of the financial system.
Nobel prize winning economist Paul Krugman writes:
What [Iceland's recovery] demonstrated was the " case for letting creditors of private banks gone wild eat the losses.
Krugman also says:
A funny thing happened on the way to economic Armageddon: Iceland's very desperation made conventional behavior impossible, freeing the nation to break the rules. Where everyone else bailed out the bankers and made the public pay the price, Iceland let the banks go bust and actually expanded its social safety net. Where everyone else was fixated on trying to placate international investors, Iceland imposed temporary controls on the movement of capital to give itself room to maneuver.

Lili Diallo Portfolio
You might recall the post I did back in January on stylist Lili Diallo's beautiful loft apartment, when it was featured in Domino. Now you can see more goodness by Lili — lovely Heather of the Habitually Chic blog has a great post about Lili's work that's well worth checking out. What awesome talent! I love the chairs in this room (not to mention everything else in there, too). Via Fondly Seen.

1 Reviews
The Military Cemetery at its present location exists since 1895. It consists of several sections for the dead soldiers of different wars, like the Russo Turkish War (1877 to 1878) or the Great Patriotic War (WWII).
Besides the military graves and memorials, also the graves of some prominent local people can be found here. Among them is the grave of the Belarusian poet Yanka Kupala, who mysteriously died in a hotel in Moscow in 1942.
The Military Cemetery is situated about 2,5 km east of the city centre; between the streets ul. Kozlova and ul. Krsnozvednaya. The area is served by several trams (e.g. #06).

To See And Be SeenI like to share my pics and see others. When we see each other naked we share some of our most closely held secrets. Exposing our bodies to each other helps us share more openly. And it's fun.

They Enjoy Showing Their Trophies :)I think the reason people show their lovers nude is because they are proud and want to see the response from other viewers.

To ShareI love posting pics of myself and love to get them in return. Its my way of sharing a part of myself with others.
Why I Post PhotosI post nude photos of myself to the net because I am somewhat of a "closet" exhibitionist. The reason that I say that is because I don't "flash" people in public or intentionally have public clothing slips or parade around nude in front of my windows. So posting to the net is a...

NEW LEXINGTON -- Summer's end might be unwelcome, but New Lexington High School students will have a something to ease their pain this year -- free iPads.
New Lexington City Schools recently signed a three-year lease with Apple. The district will pay $416,316 -- three payments of $138,772 -- and in return will receive 600 32GB iPads with WiFi.
That equates to about $690 per iPad over the three-year lease. That's more than the $599 list price to buy a new iPad outright, but the New Lex deal also comes with a two-year protection plan to cover any software problems plus a small amount of coverage for ...

Ok, makes sense :P
She'll hopefully grow out of the shallow-dof phase and expand and try other stuff as well. ^^
Actually, even though I like shallow-dof on many occasions, with medium-format, I am really struggling with too thin DOF's.
Even F4 on 80mm is too thin on many occasions, I then stop down, only to find out that I should have jammed a 400 ISO film into the camera instead of 100

Poor little Marie-Louise! ( Frau Suzanne le Bret ); she is a little
child of Paris who once had a happy and bourgeoisie family but due to
some misadventures of destiny, her beloved father, Herr Pierre de Valen
( Herr Émile Keppens ) must leave his home in order to make war against
some exotic enemies of France beyond the sea. Due to the fact that in
olden days communications were rather slow (carrier pigeons could take
years) Marie Louise's father was given up for dead. Marie Louise's
mother, broken by grief, dies soon after, leaving poor Marie Louise
alone and an orphan.
She is sent to a strict boarding school but, being French, doesn't like the discipline. She escapes only to fall into the clutches of a crook known as "The Graduate" ( Herr Louis Leubas ) who gives her to a drunken cobbler. Happily the soused shoemaker has a young and merciful assistant, Bosco ( Herr Maurice Lagrenée ) who will be her protector.
Unexpectedly one day awesome news arrives in France: Marie-Louise's father has been found alive after so many years!! He receives honors as a war hero but his first task is to find Marie-Louise. The Graduate tells him he will deliver the child for a sum but, after receiving the money from the little girl's father, he takes her and runs off. Herr Pierre de Valen and Bosco go in pursuit.
The film "L'Enfant De Paris" (1913) by Herr Léonce Perret is influenced by what the French call "Roman Feuilleton", those serial stories published in newspapers in France during the XIX century that were very popular among commoner readers. In English terms these could be defined as "Victorian melodramas". Usually these stories involved upper class characters finding themselves in the slums.
These melodramas could thus be seen as bringing social contrasts and class struggle to the surface. "L'Enfant De Paris" has such characteristics but Herr Perret uses the conventions of such stories in an exquisite and very cinematic manner.
The sorrows and miseries of our little heroine are depicted carefully during the two hours of the film (an unusually long running time in such early days ), from her comfortably bourgeoisie life to the underworld. This make for a shocking contrast: We see a society in class crisis (economic success for some, misery, poverty and alcoholism for others). Herr Perret creates the perfect atmosphere for a true "Roman Feuilleton" but he avoids excessive sentimentality thus making the little heroine's reunion with her father all the more touching "L'Enfant De Paris" (1913) is an astonishing film wherein all Herr Léonce Perret's virtues as an early skillful director can be seen at their height, an exemplary oeuvre full of inventive narrative resources and techniques that certainly were ahead of their time.
And now, if you'll allow me, I must temporarily take my leave because this German Count must find a niece who was lost some years ago during a visit to the Schloss.

Art Ginsburg, the delightfully dorky television chef known as Mr. Food, has died at his home in Weston, Fla.
Ginsburg, who was 81, enticed viewers for decades with a can-do focus on easy weeknight cooking and the tagline "Ooh! It's so good!" He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer just over a year ago and died Wednesday. The cancer had gone into remission following early treatments and surgery, but returned earlier this month.
Ginsburg had an unlikely formula for success in this era of reality cooking shows, flashy chefs and artisanal foods. With a pleasantly goofy, grandfatherly manner and a willingness to embrace processed foods, Ginsburg endeared himself to millions of home cooks via 90-second segments syndicated to 125 local television stations around the country.

"we ordered this particular design for our daughter's first birthday and they came out even better than I could've hoped...and the compliments we've received!! so easy to do and they came even faster than stated. Love***"
"When I received this card in the mail I couldn't have loved it more. The quality of the paper as well the quality of the pics was amazing. The design itself is very beuatiful, I would recommend this card to anyone who wants a beautiful card featuring their beautiful child"
"I loved how the card had a variety of colors, which all worked together in a beautiful way. In addition, the card is not just a plain when, what, where, who, why card. It has personality and that's why I chose it!"
"My daughter wanted to have a "unicorn" theme party this year, and this invitation was perfect. We loved the pink/puple/blue color and the ability to personalize it. I am always so happy with the quality from Tiny Prints. I use them for every special occasion."
"The pictures I chose turned out great. They arrived 3-4 days earlier than the date given to me on the confirmation e-mail. I've already had 4 compliments on them from family/friends who have received an invitation. I definitely plan on using tiny prints again in the future."

Why we're watching: Logan unearths many gems in Jackson's five-warehouses' worth of belongings, but a personal manifesto handwritten by Jackson is particularly interesting. "I will be magic. I will be a perfectionist, a researcher, a trainer, a masterer (sic). I will be better than every great actor roped into one, " a then-21-year-old Jackson wrote.

You will be entangled in a flurry of thorny vines and pulled into its mouth, and crushed under a powerful bite force. You may survive the bite, but you won't survive the rest. Once you're swallowed, your life will come to a slow end as you are dissolved in acidic stomach pods, and digested by the plant.

Wastewater treatment facilities (WWTFs) can account for 50% or more of municipal electrical costs. Many municipal WWTFs can reduce their energy use by 20-30% -- resulting in downward pressure on municipal budgets.
Municipalities have a broad range of opportunities for saving energy at their wastewater treatment plants. First, many WWTFs are 30-40 years old and are due for major facility upgrade. Efficiency Vermont can work with your municipality to help ensure that the most cost-effective, long-term solutions are considered. These solutions involve an examination and comparison of options that consider both the capital and operating costs associated with these upgrades.
Beyond major facility upgrades, municipalities have a range of more immediate opportunities for saving energy. For example, aeration systems typically use 30-70% of total energy at a treatment plant. Automated controls, such as sensors that can detect oxygen levels, can achieve up to 50% savings with a payback of less than one year in many cases.
Efficiency Vermont can provide a range of technical and financial support to help your municipality improve the efficiency of your WWTF and significantly lower energy costs. Our assistance includes:
Municipalities are asked to work closely with Efficiency Vermont and the Vermont Agency of Natural Resources in the development of a WWTF Efficiency Upgrade Project, including developing a prioritized list of actions for improving efficiency at your facility.
Efficiency Vermont is soliciting enrollment in this limited-time offer from Vermont municipalities. We encourage you to learn more by contacting our Customer Support Department at 888-921-5990 x7740.
There are many ways for water and wastewater facilities to save money and energy. Start with:

Guys, if you are still sitting on the fence on this I urge you to purchase this theme right now.
The support provided by them is worldclass. I have paid much more for other software but the support is incomparable to the estatement team.
All my questions were responded within hours and the support team even added a new feature to the theme after I requested for it. After installing the new update, there were some issues which turned out to be due to my developer not setting it up properly. Nonetheless, they logged in to my site and fix the issue for me.
Now this is what I call commitment and awesome after sales service.
Thumbs up!!
Hi There!
Thanks so much for the kind words We believe a theme is not high quality unless the support is high quality as well
If you need anything else just let us know
Hello, here's a suggestion I found browsing the theme from a mobile. In the "Live Search" page, the controls should be on the top and below the results. Because one's have to reach the bottom of the page to see the controls. This is like upside down design. Don't you think guys?
Hi netjmt,
We completely agree with you there is just so much to do we havent gotten around to doing it also, top navigation is not ideal either since you still have to scroll away from the results. We were thinking of a modal window. Or something similar on mobile devices.
Thanks for the suggestion, we will definitely make the filter better on mobile soon!
Still no upgrade?
Sorry, we're still working on it. We'll be going on a long vacation soon and we didn't want to release anything to make sure there aren't loads of bugs. We are constantly updating the current version though!
Ive tried to reach support a number of times with no response. Hoping i can place my question here.
On the home page with the map, is there any way for it to only show properties that are published? If I set a property to pending or draft, it still shows on the map.
Thanks for your time.
Still no response…
Easily worth the money – if I could rate it higher than 5 stars I would. Bonsaished and Daniel offer superb (and quick) support, and the theme is a breeze to work with! Can't wait to see what other themes you guys put out there!
Thank you EstateMedia!
We try our best to give top notch support and bring everyone new and awesome features
we have installed Estatement on http:\\jonarealestate.al . Now it's working very slowly.We have dis-activated the plugins and the guys that have hosted the theme told me that i have to check the theme , because it takes too long to load. even on the dashboard, when it's active. Can you instruct me about this issue. Kind regards.
Hi ! Still waiting for front end submission )))) Could you include and facebook connect O:) Thanks .
Hi ionluka,
We've been on vacation until today, sorry for the late response We're still working on it, but we'll only release once it's been 100% tested. I think it's about 1-2 weeks away.
I'm not sure we'll include Facebook connect in the first iteration, but we'll keep it in mind!
Hi guys. Couple of questions. Do you plan to add a "search radius" option? I mean, imagine a user in the street with her phone wanting to find available apartments for rent from around 1 km of her current location.
Also, a great feature I want to see, is the possibility that after the results are requested and shown, the new "live filtering" can be used, and not the static results as by now. I hope to be understood. Also, a fixed top menu option would be great as a new feature,
Thank you very much guys. Good work. : )
Hi netjmt,
We actually have this option included already, you can customize the radius options available for users
We definitely like the search filter suggestion. We want to add more features and make it a lot more smooth than it is now. We're working on front-end submission at the moment; once that is done we'll give the theme a general update, focusing on existing systems.
Let me know if you need any more info,
Hi guys, I want to buy this template, but I have a question before it. I don't need the slider on the main page. Can I put there the map as on the http://estatement.bonsaished.com/quarter-page-map-search/? Thx, Kate
Hi Kate,
Yep, any page you see on the website can be made the front page
Let me know if you have any more questions,
Oh, great, thx, Daniel Bye
No worries, I'm here if you need us!
How does this theme differ from Red Factory's Vacation Rental theme?
if i have understood this right. The guys behind this are somewhat the same, but in this theme they also give support.
But is this easier to use than Vacation Rental theme?
Hi samivi,
There is some collaboration between the two companies yes The two themes in the backend are much the same. There have been more updates to Estatement but they are essentially the same from the back end.
We're coming out with a new version of the theme around the second week of January, we'll be making the admin much more user friendly.
Hope that helps,
I've been waiting all day for a solution since I was told today It was going to get fixed. I really need the layout of the Website working well. Please let me know when you can. I have all plugins disabled and still don't work. Thank you.
the contact form widget on the right sidebar works even if we dont enter a valid e-mail. I checked the option in my widgets, but it still accept non-valid e-mails.
The live demo doesn't load?
Hi there,
Looks ok to me now. We didn't notice any outages today, but we do sometimes get 3-5 minutes of downtime for no apparent reason. Let me know if this is still an issue,
Any news/ETA on the new front-end submission?
Hi arexcedian,
We're still a while away as we're developing a new theme. beside that we're focusing on existing features on Estatement. Front-End submission IS coming, but we'd rather take our time and build it well than build it quick!
I think everyone ready for new release
We're waiting…
Hi There,
Yes, so are we We're in the final phases but we're a small company and we still don't want to sacrifice quality for speed. In the meantime we are supporting the current version as usual
Thanks for your reply..
Please Respond!!!
I have asked this question months ago with no response.
My question is Can I change the banner to say "SOLD" or "UNDER CONTRACT" instead of the price? I still want to keep FEATURED
Please respond!!!
Can Range Slider be configured to include "0" in some way? I use it on custom details and if I set it to "0" it shows up blank in the range slider (and still remains blank after "sliding")?
Hi Kroelben,
We'll need to take a look at this for you. Could you send us a message via our contact form so we can add this to our support queue and send you an update via email?
Demo does not work
Hi edviga,
It looks good to me now, perhaps it was just a server reboot, it sometimes happens. Are you still seeing the issue?
Now all is well. Thank you!
Thank YOU for letting us know, it is very important for our demo site to work
Let me know if you need anything else,
Hi.. I want to change my homepage to the quarter image so that I can display a list of properties as well as featured properties on the homepage. I have created a page called Homepage, then from my reading settings. I have it as static and front page as home. But its still showing the full background image, and non of the features I set above are showing.
Point: How do I attribute a specific image to the homepage?
What about update Daniel? Do you have exact time? We're still waiting..
Sorry, there isn't and won't be an exact time. We were a bit stupid to commit to a date previously and we're not going to make the mistake again!
That said, the test versions of the theme have been sent out to some buyers. Unless they come back with major issues, the theme will be out soon!

'Kyofu' starts out as intriguing only to plummet into muddled vagaries
and plot-less shenanigans with an overly ambitious undertone and is
never fully realized. The initial thrust of the movie includes a failed
suicide who ends up a guinea pig captive of her own mother, the
experiments including brain surgery in a quest to alter human
perception and bring the species to a whole new level. A chilling
scenario given that the point of the reference were human experiments
that the Imperial army actually performed on prisoners of war during
In fact, the horrors of such things like Unit 731 are beyond anything 'Kyofu' could ever hope to achieve, testifying that real life can so often trump fiction. But perhaps it is unfair to expect this movie to deliver on that account, however, this is a movie spawned from a rich tradition of scary cinema and it fails to live up to the expectations within the genre.
Instead of exploring a genuinely scary story the movie loses itself in meanderings about life after death, virgin pregnancy, a looming bright light that becomes very fake looking CG created fog to represent the never quite explained threat, and there is even one of those infuriating twists that by now are all too tiresome.
'Kyofu' does try to be scary and its vocabulary is for the most part that of Asian horror with a slow pace, plenty of moody scenery be it a creepy clinic or the many forest scenes that seem to invoke such classics as the Tale of Two Sisters. Unfortunately it does not adhere to the aesthetics by adding conspicuous special effects that become more laughable as the movie reaches its convoluted climax.
Through most of it there is a feeling of disconnected bits all pieced together with no actual sense, almost as if scenes could have been edited in any random order to the same general effect. While not long it feels like it exhausted itself long before it comes to an actual conclusion. The characters seem only half present and their very stilted lines about the afterlife ring hollow.
All and all, it's a shame how such promise was wasted. Here was an opportunity for dealing with one of the darkest sides of Japan, its frighteningly high suicide rate and to possibly go into beyond disturbing human experiments to justify the title of 'Kyofu' (Fear). Hailing from the writer of the ever so famous Ringu this effort comes across as a disappointment on all fronts.

Rivanne Neuenschwander's 2003 Eu desejo o seu desejo cleverly plays on wish fulfillment, asking viewers to own up to their desires by taking a ribbon printed with a variety of wishes some altruistic ("I wish for peace"), some selfish ("I wish for an easy death") before leaving a handwritten wish in return.
One of my wishes was granted, if from a distance. The famous ruby slippers or at least a pair that looks like them; the originals being housed in the Smithsonian are indeed there, under glass like some reliquary. Scrawled inside the satin lining, in a slightly sloppy script, are the words "Judy Garland." Suddenly, I'm not in San Francisco anymore.

Posted in Body Contouring, Surgical Procedures, August 26th, 2012 | Posted by Dr. Kreidstein
In Ontario, patients who have abdominal skin that hangs over the groin crease and have a history of bad skin infections or other complications can ask their surgeon to apply for insurance (OHIP) coverage of a panniculectomy (removal of a skin apron). Depending on the severity of the pannus, this can be a life-saving operation, and at minimum will dramatically improve your quality of life. The operation is not intended as a cosmetic procedure, and we are careful to demonstrate at our consultations the limits of a panniculectomy and the benefits of adding an abdominoplasty (cosmetic) to the procedure. An abdominoplasty is much less expensive if a panniculectomy is already covered. On rare occasions, we have no opportunity to perform a cosmetic procedure (if the pannus is too large or infected), and we have to defer the cosmetic procedure to a second operation.

Apple Store. Grand Central. Arriving Soon.- Sally Herships / Marketplace

Apple Store arrives at Grand Central Station
Jeremy Hobson: Rumor had it that today would be opening day for a new Apple store in the middle of one of the busiest places in America: New York City's Grand Central Terminal. Now it appears Apple fans will have to wait a bit longer.
And as Sally Herships reports, the other retailers in Grand Central are bracing for impact.
Sally Herships: I'm standing in the middle of Grand Central Station. I'm just one of 750,000 people who pass through here everyday. On the balcony above me, there used to be a restaurant. Now there are signs that read: "Grab more than flowers on your way home." Apple is coming, and retailers here are wondering if the new store will bring them more business or suck customers away.
Paul Nippes: I think it can't help, but help.
Paul Nippes is an owner of Kidding Around, a toy store at Grand Central. Nippes is firmly on the pro-Apple side. His wife, Tina Clark, not so much.
Tina Clark: People are already walking through like crazy. We got lots of walkthroughs. I mean, it's the 'Stop please!' that we're looking forward to.
Down the hall and even closer to Apple's new site is Cursive, a stationary and gift store. Elena Carey works there. She says she's got mixed feelings.
Elena Carey: I hope people look past just Apple and they see that there are small independent shops that are owned by real human beings who live right here in New York City.
And like Cursive, some of those shops sell iPad covers.
In New York, I'm Sally Herships for Marketplace.

Update on Myriam MaritzaMyriam bought cooking oil, salt, rice, and hygiene products, which she sold to her customers very quickly. She then invested again, thanks to her first credikiva, which she was very satisfied with.
Now she plans to apply for a new credikiva, with which she will buy the same merchandise in greater volume. This way, she will be increasing her working capital once more.
She sends a message to the Kiva lenders, "Thank you, thank you very much for the support you are giving me. You are a blessing from God. Thanks to you, I keep going with my little store, and I hope you keep helping me and other people who need it, so that we can get ahead. May God bless you."

Additional Information
About Fundación Mario Santo DomingoFundación Mario Santo Domingo (FMSD) is a non-profit organization in northern Colombia dedicated to developing programs for the country's poorest communities. In addition to numerous social services, FMSD runs a microfinance program to strengthen micro-businesses in the areas where it works. The organization also offers several non-financial components as part of this program, including training to help entrepreneurs start their own businesses.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

First envisioned in 2004 by Dave Karnes and Steve and Amy Lindsay, Kicks for a Cure was launched in April 2006.
The primary purpose of the weekend is to raise awareness for cancer education and prevention.
It is also an opportunity to showcase Omaha as a compassionate, vibrant community where health care,
education, commerce and recreation intertwine. Since that first year, more than $1.7 million
has been raised benefiting local cancer research.
Funds are raised through sponsorships, donations, and sale of banquet
and game tickets to the general public. Grants from funds raised are awarded each year by
Kicks for a Cure, Inc., to support cancer research initiatives at
two local, world-renowned facilities,
Fred and Pamela Buffett Cancer Centerat the University of Nebraska Medical Center and
the Hereditary Cancer Center at Creighton. The research primarily targets
cancers affecting women, but is more global in its impact. Additionally, the Liz Karnes
Memorial Scholarship for Creighton Women's Soccer has been awarded for four
years and is now an endowed scholarship.
Teams participating in Kicks for a Cure have included
Division I soccer teams UNO, Nebraska, Marquette, Notre Dame, Yale, Kansas,
Minnesota, Iowa State, Virginia Saint Louis, Denver, Drake and host Creighton, as well as Division II teams
Rockhurst, South Dakota and Truman State. Local
girls' high school teams have also participated including Westside, Marian,
Millard North, Millard West, Millard South, Lincoln Southwest, Elkhorn, Gretna, Skutt, Duchesne and Burke.
Since 2012, local boys' high school teams have participated and include Westside, Bellevue East, Elkhorn, and Lincoln Lutheran.
Each team plays one game Saturday at Creighton University's Morrison Stadium (18th & California
Streets), which has a seating capacity of over 7,000.
Other activities include a soccer skills clinic for underprivileged youth
conducted by participating teams, and autograph sessions following collegiate
games. A benefit banquet Friday
night kicks off the weekend. Approximately
500 people each year make a dinner event a unique experience where attendees
interact with participating players in a family friendly environment.
Your support of Kicks for a Cure is an investment in our people and our community.

Yucca Mountain:
DOE Has Improved Its Quality Assurance Program, but Whether Its Application for a NRC License Will Be High Quality Is Unclear
GAO-07-1010: Published: Aug 2, 2007. Publicly Released: Aug 6, 2007.
Additional Materials:

(202) 512-3168
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Nuclear power reactors generate highly radioactive waste. To permanently store this waste, the Department of Energy (DOE) has been working to submit a license application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for a nuclear waste repository at Yucca Mountain about 100 miles from Las Vegas, Nevada. Although the project has been beset with delays, in part because of persistent problems with its quality assurance program, DOE stated in July 2006 that it will submit a license application with NRC by June 30, 2008. NRC states that a high-quality application needs to be complete, technically adequate, transparent by clearly justifying underlying assumptions, and traceable back to original source materials. GAO examined (1) DOE's development of its schedule for submitting a license application and the stakeholders with whom it consulted, (2) NRC's assessment of DOE's readiness to submit a high-quality application, and (3) DOE's progress in addressing quality assurance recommendations and challenges identified in GAO's March 2006 report. GAO reviewed DOE's management plan for creating the license application, reviewed correspondence and attended prelicensing meetings between DOE and NRC, and interviewed DOE managers and NRC on-site representatives for the Yucca Mountain project. In commenting on a draft of the report, both DOE and NRC agreed with the report.
The director of DOE's Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management set the June 30, 2008, date for filing the license application with NRC in consultation with the DOE and contractor managers for the Yucca Mountain project. DOE officials told us that external stakeholders were not consulted because there was neither a legal requirement nor a compelling management reason to do so. According to the director, the June 2008 schedule is achievable because DOE has already completed a large amount of work, including the completion of a draft license application in 2005 that DOE decided not to submit to NRC. NRC officials believe it is likely that DOE will submit a license application by June 30, 2008, but until NRC receives the application, officials will not speculate about whether it will be high quality. NRC has not seen a draft of the license application, and NRC's long-standing practice is to maintain an objective and neutral position toward a future application until it is filed. To help ensure that DOE understands its expectations, NRC has, among other things, held periodic prelicensing management and technical meetings with DOE. DOE has made progress in resolving the quality assurance recommendations and challenges identified in GAO's March 2006 report. For example, DOE has replaced the one-page summary of performance indicators that GAO had determined was ineffective with more frequent and rigorous project management meetings. DOE has addressed the management challenges GAO identified to varying degrees. For example, regarding management continuity, DOE has worked to fill and retain personnel in key management positions, such as the director of quality assurance. However, for various reasons--including the long history of recurring problems and likely project leadership changes in January 2009 when the current administration leaves office--it is unclear whether DOE's actions will prevent these problems from recurring.

Can you direct me on how to turn this feature on? I know it is turned on when I'm in the post area because I clicked discussion and the option is checked, but NOTHING. I do want people leaving comments.
