detailed the new "Refresh" and "Reset" option found in Windows 8 on the company's Building Windows 8 blog, but he's now already back with an exhaustive overview of yet another new feature. This time it's "Storage Spaces," which will let you pool both virtual and physical drives (regardless of how they're connected) in a variety of ways to keep your data as safe as possible. That includes the ability to expand individual storage pools on an as-needed basis, and various ways to mirror your data for some added redundancy -- as you'd expect, the "spaces" themselves simply behave as a regular disk. Hit the source link below for the full rundown.

Had the white settlers in North America called the natives 'Americans' instead of 'Indians', the early Americans could not have said that the 'only good Indian is a dead Indian' and could not have deprived them so easily of their lands and lands and lives. Robbing people of their proper names is often the first step in robbing them of their property, liberty, and life.

xG Health Solutions celebrates one year anniversary PR Newswire COLUMBIA, Md., Feb. 3, 2014 Geisinger startup reflects on 2013 accomplishments, positioned for 2014 success COLUMBIA, Md., Feb. 3, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- With support from a $40 million investment from Oak Investment Partners, Geisinger Health System a year ago helped launch independent for-profit xG Health Solutions™, dedicated to transforming health care delivery in a risk-based financial environment. "We have the ability and opportunity now to improve the way health care is delivered and improve patient outcomes while reducing health care costs," said xG Health CEO Earl Steinberg, M.D., MPP. To accomplish its mission of helping health care providers be successful in improving patient care under risk-based payment arrangements, xG Health uses Geisinger's lauded experience and innovations in delivering patient care. xG Health's mission is supported by Glenn D. Steele Jr., M.D., Ph.D., president and CEO of Geisinger Health System, and chairman of the xG Health board of directors. xG Health is in a long-term, close collaboration to help push the transformative power of the Geisinger model into health care nationwide. "With our Geisinger partnership, we have a $4 billion research and development shop and access to experts who are on the front lines of innovation and delivery," emphasized Dr. Steinberg, who is also Geisinger's executive vice president of Innovation & Dissemination.

It's simple, and free.
This activity became the pathway to the human condition. Ritualization is a way, an experimental way, of going from the inchoate to the expressive, from the sheerly pragmatic to the communicative. . . . We had best think of it as their progenitor, and as the source also of speech, or religion, of culture, and of ethics. It is not as true to say that we . . . invented rituals as the rituals have invented us (31).
One important facet of Driver's argument in this book is that rituals are misperceived by our modern society, which sees them as meaningless pomp and circumstance, vestiges of an earlier era which was not as rational or enlightened as our own. Driver argues, conversely, that we have cheated ourselves out of much of crucial value by denigrating, neglecting and even eliminating ritual from our daily lives. He does not say that ritual is always a pleasure, always joyful. To the contrary, it is sometimes, even often, a matter of doing some act in the form of a ritual which feels far more like a difficult or undesirable duty than an act of joy or pleasure. Driver does not argue against the aspect of duty in ritual, but he does argue, and vehemently, against rituals which have had the vitality sucked out of them by institutional ignorance. For example, focusing on the failures of religion to inspire many people today, the author writes that part of this failure has to do with the aridity of ritual:
Since the playfulness and freedom of ritual have largely disappeared from churches, the soul of worship often disappears, leaving behind only skeletal bones in the form of an "order." The service is then envisaged not as something musical, danceable, and expressive but rather as the recitation of certain prescribed words (215).
In other words, rituals should be, according to Driver, not only interesting, entertaining, and emotionally and spiritually involving for the participants, they should also, whenever possible, be expressive of...

Janet Jackson's Lawyer Demands Retraction From Vanity Fair Over Michael Jackson Burial Story
Janet Jackson's attorney sent a scathing letter to Vanity Fair demanding a retraction of an article in the November 2012 issue.
The magazine article, which is an excerpt from Randall Sullivan's upcoming book, Untouchable: The Strange Life and Tragic Death of Michael Jackson, claims Janet, 46, delayed her brother Michael Jackson's funeral until she was reimbursed for her $40,000 deposit to secure his plot.
Janet's attorney, Blair G. Brown, addressed a legal letter to Vanity Fair's Editor-in-Chief Graydon Carter saying the story is "false and defamatory."
PHOTOS: Michael's most memorable moments
"Ms. Jackson never delayed the funeral in anyway," Brown wrote in the letter dated Oct. 5, obtained by Us Weekly. "In fact, she paid for the funeral and was reimbursed for some of those expenses by Michael Jackson's estate in the year after the services took place."
"In addition, there were other private costs associated with Michael Jackson's passing that Ms. Jackson incurred and for which she has never sought reimbursement," he added. "To falsely accuse Ms. Jackson of holding up her brother's funeral over money is outrageous. This story is particularly hurtful and distressing because of Ms. Jackson's strong desire to serve her brother, whom she loved dearly, and he wish to stand with and support her family."
PHOTOS: Michael's kids say their final farewell
The King of Pop was laid to rest on Sept. 3, 2009 at Forest Lawn Memorial Park, more than two months after his death.
"I demand that Vanity Fair retract its statement that Ms. Jackson 'refused' to let Michael Jackson's funeral take place until the money she put down as a deposition on his burial plot was repaid," Brown wrote. "To the extend that this statement appears in excerpts of Untouchable published in Vanity Fair's November 2012 issue, I demand that Vanity Fair publish a retraction explaining that the statement is false."
PHOTOS: Inside Michael's memorial
Janet posted the entire letter on her official website.

Learn how to balance calories in with calories out
What do you think of when you hear the term 'energy balance' -- maybe a skateboard stunt or a yoga pose? What it really means, at least in the health care community, is the art of consuming just the right number of calories to manage your weight.
You're probably familiar with the balancing act of juggling career, family, friends, community, and personal needs. In weight control, the "balancing act" means taking in only as much food and drink as you need to fuel your body's basic functions, the activities of daily living, and exercise.
The number of calories needed for energy balance is highly individual, and it changes from day to day depending on your activity level. Weighing in once weekly (or even more often) is the easiest method to determine whether you're in energy balance. If you take in more calories than you burn, they will likely show up as weight gained, while creating a calorie deficit sends the needle on the scale counterclockwise.
Beyond Counting Calories
Counting calories can be labor-intensive, and can take all the fun out of eating. So instead of fixating on calories, think food, glorious food! Choosing foods that are high in fiber, fluid, and nutrients that fill you up on fewer calories is the secret to painless calorie cutting.
Fruits, vegetables, beans, whole grains, low-fat dairy, and small portions of lean meats and nuts are the kind of foods you should be enjoying each day. Unprocessed foods (those in their natural form) are the healthiest options at the grocery store.
If you enjoy eating refined, processed foods, do so in moderation to better control your calorie intake.
Calories and Exercise
A healthy dose of regular physical activity will boost your metabolism in two ways. Every time you move, you burn calories. Exercise also builds muscle, and the more muscle you have, the more calories you need simply to maintain your basal metabolism (the number of calories required for digestion, breathing, blood circulation, and other body processes while you're at rest).
Of course, energy balance is not the only benefit of regular exercise. That list includes weight loss, stronger muscles and bones, lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and a healthier heart - not to mention disease prevention and a longer life.

Scouring the sea: A file photo of the ship HMAS Perth transiting through the southern Indian Ocean as an Orion P-3K from the Royal New Zealand Air Force searches overhead for debris from the missing Flight MH370. - AFP
PETALING JAYA: The new phase in the search for Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 will include assets such as multi-beam echo sounders and the Prosas towed side scan sonar, said Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein.
The Defence Minister said the assets, which would be used as the Government's furnished equipment, would be deployed for the bathymetric survey and the search of the sea floor.
"Chairman of the Asset Deployment Committee Datuk Rahim Bakri led a delegation to Canberra to discuss and coordinate the arrangements for Malaysia's participation in this phase of the search operation," he said in a statement yesterday.
On the new phase, he said an expert satellite working group had been working for eight weeks and they had reviewed and refined all existing information to define the search zone along the arc in the southern Indian Ocean.
Hishammuddin explained that the refinement of the search area involved the expertise of Australia's Transport Safety Bureau, China's Civil Aviation Administration and Aircraft Accident Investigation Department, the United Kingdom's Air Accidents Investigation Branch, the United States' National Transportation and Safety Board and Malaysia's Department of Civil Aviation.
He revealed that the priority was now focused on an area of up to 60,000sq km within the new search area where the aircraft last communicated with the satellite.
"This area is further south along the arc based on the calculations carried out by the expert satellite working group," he said.
Hishammuddin said extremely difficult calculations had to be performed on specialised satellite communications information to refine the search area due to the unprecedented scale and complexity of the search operation.
Hishammuddin also announced that Deputy Foreign Minister Datuk Hamzah Zainudin, who is the chairman of the Next-of-Kin Committee, would lead a delegation of all four Chairs of the Ministerial Sub-Committees and other senior officials to China today.
"This meeting is primarily aimed at updating our Chinese counterparts on the latest efforts at the tripartite level and Malaysia's contribution," he said.

Features unreleased material from Eminem, EMINEM track, 50 Cent tracks and 3 with EMINEM & 50 Cent as well as new music from O Trice, D-12, Stat Quo. Each of the tracks are official CD debuts on the Re-Up. EMINEM is currently featured on Akon's track, 'Smack That'.
What began life as an informal street mix-tape project to help launch fledgling Shady Records artists (Stat Quo, Ca$his, Bobby Creekwater, Obie Trice, and producer The Alchemist) has now become an official release. Flowing fairly randomly from track to track, the project, perhaps surprisingly for such a high profile outing, retains its original mixtape vibe. It's a thuggish and sluggish affair, led by Alchemist's somber, strong-arm beats (with additional production from Dr. Dre amd Kon Artis), and inhabited by a varied range of voices, from the Shady Records artists previously mentioned to Eminem himself (on half a dozen tracks), and appearances from 50 Cent, the recently slain Proof, and others from the G Unit crew. With so many cuts at the same tempo and with the same moody aura, it can all start to wear a little in places. Indeed, with such a wealth of up and coming talent and established personnel at work, there really ought to be more stand-outs. As it is, we get perhaps six killers (including Eminem-led cuts, "The Re-Up" and "Jimmy Crack Corn"), a disproportionate amount of fillers, and a mixtape/album that--just about--leaves a vaguely positive impression. --Paul Sullivan

Several Walker residents are still dealing with flooding
Topics : livingston parish walker flooding
WALKER - In Livingston Parish hundreds are still dealing with flooding after Isaac.
Several people who live in the Greenwich Village subdivision in Walker say it's the worst they can remember.
Tim Henderson says, "We didn't anticipate this water. And there's plenty of houses on our street that's never flooded before."
Some still don't have power. Others can barely leave the house.
That's why Walker Mayor, Bobby Font and several volunteers are going house to house delivering a hot meal and cold drinks.
Font agrees. He says, "You get tired of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches after a couple of days."
Livingston parish is one of four parishes added today where residents can seek federal help.

Sentimental and sweet, this debut is a lovely amalgam of food, love and life. With glimpses into eight different lives, there's no overarching story other than the cooking class that ties the characters together, but it's delicately told nonetheless. The saintly teacher, Lillian, is a little too good to be true, and her backstory, while very well told, doesn't really elucidate her unwavering benevolence.
Lillian, a self-taught chef, teaches a cooking class on Monday nights out of her restaurant. While her students vary in many different ways, each is excited to learn to cook for all different reasons. As they experiment with different ingredients, spices and tastes, they're brought back to the different times in their lives that led them to Lillian's class in the first place.

Costumed criminals commit crimes in BR area
Related Story
BATON ROUGE- Thieves in the Baton Rouge area are continuing a costume trend when committing crimes.
The latest dressed like the "Cat in the Hat."
Others have donned wild, red wigs and pajamas, leaving people scratching their heads.
"I think it takes a special kind of person that can be dressed up in the Cat in the Hat costume to rob a bank or something like that," said Robin Palms.
Alexis Ray said, "Not funny if they're robbing someone, but other than that, yea it is."
Police in Zachary are working on the most recent case, of the woman in the whimsical hat. Officers say she broke into a few cars at a gym then used the credit cards she stole to buy expensive items. Police say the crazy costumes are catching more attention and law enforcement is benefiting.
"I think it's really exposing people because they're really starting to stand out," said Zachary Police Chief David McDavid, "I think people are really starting to do a lot of hilarious things out here, but it's also helping us in law enforcement."
Several oddly dressed suspects have been caught close to when authorities say they committed their crimes, which include multiple bank robberies.
"It's starting to really get kind of crazy," said McDavid, "We have different things happening here in Zachary, but we're starting to see some funny things also. I don't know if it's with the economics or what, but it's really starting to be a problem here."
People are mixed about the trend.
"You would actually look at someone, if even they weren't actually trying to rob you," said Ray, "You see someone in a Cat in the Hat outfit, it's not October 31st, it's not Halloween, so that is something out of the norm."
Palms said, "I think it's kind of scary because it's like they don't fit this profile now that you have to look out for something that, at once, you would think, oh that's a funny costume, that's something different, now you have to think, oh is that somebody trying to rob me?"
If you have any information about the "Cat in the Hat" case, or the pajama break-in, call authorities.

On a recent trip to Nashville, I ate at a really tasty restaurant. Only problem: When I got there, I looked at the menu and froze. I couldn't order. I had no idea what one single dish on the menu was in its entirety. I asked the waiter approximately 63 questions. To my surprise, he wasn't irritated, and in fact, said he appreciated me asking beforehand, rather than ordering and complaining after-the-fact. He also mentioned that he thinks many diners are embarrassed to ask. In the age of "everyone's a food critic," people don't ask their servers the right questions out of fear of revealing what they don't know. I don't fall into that camp. I want to know.
For those of you like me, here's all you ever wanted to know about dining but didn't want to ask. Without further adieu:Read More
At The Local Oak, a new neighborhood hangout, you can get Texas Surfers—these sliders made with grilled Spam, house-made pineapple relish, and slaw. It's gutsy for a chef to bring Spam into Oak Cliff, but The Local Oak has some pros in the house. Chef Aaron Courtney just came from Nick and Sam's Steakhouse, and […]Read More
Before you guys start raising your pitchforks, hear me out. Like all of you Oishii fans, I've been rooting for this restaurant's comeback. The owner, Thanh Nguyen, is an Asian-American like me.

I'm not a food critic. So when I went to last night's 17th Cafe Momentum pop-up dinner, I was a little worried about if I could do the food justice. I wanted to capture the evening, but my inability to describe food as anything other than "yummy" or "delicious" had me concerned. But the great […]Read More
Two weeks ago, the popular Katy Trail restaurant, Company Cafe, put up a massive chalkboard wall on its exterior, asking diners and passers by one question: What do you want to do before you die?

I'm late jumping onto the Boulevardier-love bandwagon, but we all know Oak Cliff's new French bistro is bound to stick around for a long, long time. So, no rush, right?

Yesterday, I was invited to lunch at Trinity Groves. I sat at a large table surrounded by the partners involved in the massive project and several members of the Food and Concept Advisory Committee. As one of the partners, Phil Romano, chewed my ear off with details, Mike Babb filled my plate with barbecue. Babb […]Read More
If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times: procrastination (while cool and an incredibly effective use of time) is a runinator of the third magnitude (magnitudes one and two are things like interruptions in cable service and untimely name mix-ups, respectively, which, while sucky, don't suck nearly as much as putting on […]Read More
Barbecue is a "cuisine" that attracts a peculiarly conservative following. If an establishment chops rather than slices brisket, 'Cue Heads are roll.

I was tooling down Irving Blvd. yesterday after a run to the camera store and I spotted a couple of cars and a motorcycle in front of the soon-to-open Off-Site Kitchen. I opened the door to find owner/chef Nick Badovinus and chef Dan Riley trying out a few items for the menu. Besides getting a […]Read More
John Jay Myers has swung the doors wide on The Free Man, his new Cajun cafe & lounge in Deep Ellum. His mission: combining a bit of Bourbon Street with a nightly live-music venue. Menu items: etouffee, jambalaya, gumbo, boudin, alligator, and more. Sounds great to us, but the Cajun vs. Creole distinction seems to […]Read More
If you ever decide to become a restaurant critic be prepared for the inevitable question: "What is your favorite restaurant in Dallas?" It's a hard question for me to answer. Not because I'm evasive, it's because I feel like I have to quantify my choice by answering "well, if I'm in the mood for Mexican […]Read More
Downtown's pretty exciting right now. First, Dirt opened on Monday (adorable store, go visit). Then, last night, Wild Salsa opened. And, according to a conversation I had with the manager at Pho Colonial, their downtown location will open in two weeks.

My husband and I battle for the title of Biggest Loser in our house; our respective weights fluctuating by 10 percent on a monthly basis (this month, he's ahead, or behind depending on how you look at it).

They have invited Cuban artists, vendors, and musicians and there will be food. Lots of traditional […]Read More
A well-informed, reliable Oak Cliff-dwelling person informed me that chef Kelly Hightower walked into the restaurant and punched one of his partners ("the dude who usually works the door") around 7:30 pm on Friday night. "The guy's face was all bloody," says my secret source. "And the dining room was packed." Talk of the incident […]Read More
I'm happy to report that some newspapers still have a budget!

Information for Prospective Teachers & Teaching Positions in the NWT
Teaching in the Northwest Territories is a challenging and rewarding career which provides educators with the opportunity for an adventure in a spectacular part of Canada. Our schools are great places to work and our communities are great places to live. We recognize that our most important resource is our young people and educators are in a very unique position to help develop the full potential of our students.
Teaching in the Northwest Territories, either in a small community or a larger center, will offer unique learning opportunities for educators. By participating in community events, newcomers are able to learn about the cultures and languages of the region, and to get to know the students and their families. Being involved in the life of the community allows educators to have a more enriching, rewarding and enjoyable experience teaching in the north.
Basic information and items to further investigate for educators who may be considering a position in the NWT.
1) Applying for Work
For educators who may be considering a position in the NWT, some basic information and items to further investigate are linked below for convenient access.
For the most up to date information about vacant teaching positions and hiring, contact the education authority offices directly.
Prospective teachers interested in teaching in the Northwest Territories are recommended to follow the following steps:
- Submit an online application on the Education Canada NWT website to ensure your name is in the general online application pool.
- Submit a copy of your cover letter and resume to each of the educational authorities where you would like to work.
- Consult the Education Canada Network site for job openings throughout the year for each individual competition that you would like to be considered for.
- Once you have accepted a job, then you can apply for an NWT Teaching Certificate.
2) NWT Schools and Education Authorities
There are eight Education Authorities in the Northwest Territories which are illustrated on the map below. Each of the education authorities is responsible for hiring their own principals, teachers and education consultants.
- NWT Regional Map
- School Councils Contact Information
3) Teacher Induction and Mentorship
As a beginning teacher, or an experienced teacher new to the NWT, each year is an opportunity to enhance your professional knowledge and skills, and to refine your teaching style. Part of being a good teacher is recognizing that you are always learning and helping to instill that passion for life-long learning in your students. The NWT has a Teacher Induction and Mentorship program to support new and beginning teachers in their first year in the North.
Teaching in the NWT will provide educators with an unforgettable experience. Before you accept a teaching position, make sure you research the implications of living and working in the NWT. Successful NWT educators are flexible in their thinking, have an understanding that things will be different than expected and, most importantly, come to learn as much as teach.
4) Collective Agreements
All NWT teachers will be members of the Northwest Territories Teachers' Association. The NWTTA is the bargaining agent for all teachers in the NWT and it interprets the collective agreements for its members. Their webpage for prospective teachers provides valuable links.
There are three Collective Agreements:Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT)
Yellowknife Public Schools (YK1)
Yellowknife Catholic Schools (YCS)
5) NWT Language and Culture
There are two foundational curricula that form the basis of all classroom instruction in the Northwest Territories K-12 education system. The Dene Kede curriculum provides a framework from which all instruction in all other curriculum areas is delivered. This Dene world view honours the culture and values of the people of the Northwest Territories. Similarly, the Inuuqatigiit curriculum provides the instructional foundation from the Inuit world view. This framework informs instruction in all other curriculum areas for those communities where the Inuit culture is the culture of the students and their communities or their heritage.
6) Curriculum Documents and Resources
- K- 12 Curriculum links can be found here
- Western and Northern Canadian Protocol, includes the development of common curriculum frameworks with learning outcomes in mathematics, language arts, social studies, aboriginal language and culture project and international languages
- Community libraries are established in many NWT communities. For those communities where a local library is not available, NWT Library Services has a "Borrow by Mail" program that delivers requested books free of charge.
7) Enseigner en Francais
8) Housing
It is important to note that, in the NWT, the employer does not provide housing for its teachers. A Northern Living Allowance is provided to teachers in the Northwest Territories to offset the high cost of living in the remote northern communities.
Some employers/principals/education authorities may assist in locating housing. It is recommended that you research this issue thoroughly.
Please consult Housing Information (page 5) for District (Regional) Office Contact Information.
In larger communities, there are apartment buildings and houses for rent either through the local housing office or through local rental agencies. Links to Northern newspapers and real estate agencies are provided for reference.
Real Estate Companies
9) Community Information
Larger Communities
A list of contact information for all communities in the Northwest Territories is available through the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs (MACA) website.
- City of Yellowknife
- Hamlet of Fort Liard
- Town of Fort Simpson
- Town of Fort Smith
- Town of Hay River
- Town of Inuvik
- Town of Norman Wells
Small Communities
A small community is one in which five or less members of the NWTTA reside and is isolated from other communities by more than a 30 km all weather road. Small community populations range from 70 to 285. All are isolated from other communities either by air or distance.
The following communities fit the small community definition:

10) Shopping for Food and Household Supplies
The Northern Living Allowance helps to defray the high cost of living in remote communities in the Northwest Territories. There are some ways to lower the cost of groceries such as ordering non-perishable items by barge where feasible. Ordering groceries from larger regional centres is another alternative.
Groceries - Food Mail Program
Barge Orders

Dan Bach
Good morning. My name is Dan Bach, Manager of Investor Relations. I want to welcome you to Plains All American Pipeline and PAA Natural Gas Storage's First Quarter Results Conference Call. Throughout the call, we may reference the companies by their respective New York Stock Exchange ticker symbols of PAA, or Plains All American Pipeline and PNG, for PAA Natural Gas Storage.
During today's call, in addition to reviewing the results of the prior period, we will provide forward-looking comments on the partnership's outlook for the future, which may include words such as believe, estimate, expect, anticipate or other words that indicate a forward view.
The partnerships intend to avail themselves of applicable safe harbor precepts and direct you to the risks and warnings set forth in the partnership's most recently filed prospectus, 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K and other current and future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In addition, we encourage you to visit our website at www.paalp.com, and www.pnglp.com, and in particular, the sections entitled Non-GAAP Reconciliations, which presents certain commonly used non-GAAP financial measures such as EBIT and EBITDA, which may be used here today in the prepared remarks or in the Q&A session. This section of the website also reconciles the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, and includes a table of selected items that impact comparability with respect to the partnership's recorded financial information. Any reference during today's call to adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and the like, is a reference to the financial measure, excluding the effect of selected items impacting comparability. Also for PAA, all references to net income are references to net income attributable to Plains.
Today's conference call will be chaired by Greg L. Armstrong, Chairman and CEO of PAA and PNG. Also participating in the call are Harry Pefanis, President and COO of PAA and Vice Chairman of PNG; Dean Liollio, President of PNG; and Al Swanson, CFO of PAA and PNG.
Prior to turning the call over to Greg, I want to mention that we'll be holding our annual Analyst and Investor Meeting on Thursday, June 9, in downtown Houston. The meeting will begin with lunch at noon, followed by presentations from 1 to around 5:30. We intend to have several members of the management team present and available for questions.
If you have an interest in accounting and have not yet received materials on the meeting, please call either Roy Lamoreaux or myself.
I will now turn the call over to Greg.
Greg Armstrong
Thanks, Dan. Good morning and welcome to everyone. In addition to Harry, Dean, Al and Dan, we also have several other members of our management team present and available for the question-and-answer session. Roy Lamoureux, our Director of Investor Relations is out of the office today on location.
As a reminder, the slide presentation we will be referring to in this call is available on our websites, our 2 websites at www.paalp.com and www.pnglp.com. During today's call, we will discuss PAA's first quarter operating and financial results, our 2011 capital program and acquisition activities, our financial position and our updated guidance for the second quarter and remainder of 2011. In an abbreviated fashion, we will also address summary information for PAA Natural Gas storage or PNG.
As many of you are aware, PNG is a separate publicly-traded MLP, focused exclusively on the Natural Gas Storage business. PAA owns 100% of PNG's general partner and 62% interest in -- limited partner interest for an aggregate 64% ownership interest, and thus, we consolidate PNG into PAA's financial statements.
The primary purpose of today's call is to address our first quarter performance and our outlook for the rest of the year. However, late last week we experienced a release of oil from our Rainbow Pipe Line system in Canada. Before we discuss our quarterly results, I wanted to provide some comments in context for the Rainbow release, and thus enable us to remain focused on the primary purpose for today's call.
On Friday, April 29, we shut in the northern portion of the Rainbow Pipe Line after detecting a crude oil release at a point that is north of our Nempsee [ph] station. We immediately notified the appropriate regulatory agencies, and lost a large very comprehensive response. The volume of the spill is currently estimated at approximately 4,500 cubic meters, which is approximately 28,000 barrels. Although this isn't immediately a significant volume, it was largely contained in our pipeline right of way, which substantially reduces the impact in cost of the response and the clean-up.

Good question...
To tell you the truth, I have a bunch of projects that are still "in the can". One of them was shot almost two years ago; over 200 pieces of 4x5 film, mostly T64, but some NPS and a few stray sheets of whatever I could muster up, including some 64T and Velvia. Another was shot in January and February. I have some rolls of film older than that that I need to develop one of these days, though they weren't a part of any particular project.
There is one project that I started, but aborted at an early stage because it was not working out in large format. I decided to start over in 35mm instead. 35mm was my original intention anyhow. I just tried to force it to fit the requirements of a large format class, because I couldn't come up with any other ideas at the time. I'll likely get around to that as soon as we get some crystal clear days here (pretty rare for us to have a perfectly clear day in L.A.)
My main ongoing projects are pretty general, and geared toward presentation in a book. I shoot a lot all the time. People in bars, on the street, etc. With that kind of stuff, I hope to get a single worthy pic out of each roll, on average, and be able to collect them some day into some sort of work that ties them all together in an appropriate way. I shoot mostly 35 for this, and have used digital as well (Canon 10D/50mm 1.2).
I also always shoot on road trips, which are my favorite activity. I will usually choose to focus on either landscapes/cityscapes on a trip, or on shooting people and "found" scenes and objects along the way. For the former, I usually use medium format color, and for the latter, I usually use black and white 35mm.
I will be making a book out of my pix from my 7,615-mile trip to the inauguration in January.
Here is the likely cover shot: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3488/...44a3698e_o.jpg
Titled "Acknowledged Reset", as the book may be.
It was actually shot before the trip, here in L.A., and on a digital camera, but it will fit perfectly with the book. I also like that is was shot on New Year's Day 2009.
If I find a better shot once I develop the 50 more rolls of HP5 that I have, I'll get rid of this sacrilegious one.
I also used to shoot news a lot...but not so much any more, at least not with publication in a news rag in mind. The last big events I shot were the Griffith Park fire and the Tea Fire, and I shot them how I felt like shooting them, without the aim to simply tell the story objectively. I simply used the situation as a unique landscape, I guess you'd say. I also shot the Motown Studio Museum in Detroit the night Michael Jackson died. I am attracted like a fly to situations where I can get crazy pix of emotive people and surreal situations and landscapes like fires.
Here are some Tea Fire pix (CVS scans): http://www.flickr.com/photos/8266378...7621746162333/

QUOTE (Darkroom ChromaCrafts @ May 4 2003, 08:39 AM)

This may be a stupid answer and maybe at the enlargement percentages most of you are doing it doesn't make a difference, but with the extreme enlargements I do, I found that my focus would appear to be dead on, but the print would not be sharp. Well, I finally figured out that I was focussing on the print platform with complete disregard for the depth of the paper itself, causing me to be minimum of 2-4 mm out of focus.

at an el-factor of 35x, DOF is on the paper side much much more than 4mm, even if we assume a circle of confusion below the resolution of our eyes. However, DOFocus, i.e. the tolerance of the negative, is always critical. I sometimes do 50x enlargements and never encountered a paper-side DOF problem, if the enlarger is well aligned. Lens performance might be another issue. Paper is UV sensitive and might see another picture as your eyes, if the lens has aberrations at these wavelengths.

Salesmen of the Past
Moore, Margaret, Contemporary Review
The conquest of our shopping streets by multiples and supermarkets has been much discussed in pubs, offices and letters pages. But in lamenting the disappearance of our friendly local shopkeeper we tend to forget a sober-suited figure that used to back courteously into the shadows at the approach of the humblest customer.
In these days of centralised purchasing the paths of wholesaler's representative and domestic shopper rarely cross. Television advertisements for high-priced computers and executive transport suggest that today's top salesmen circulate in considerable style. Joseph Brown, the author of Life in the Road, first published in 1885, held out no such hopes for his successors. 'Thirty years ago,' he recalled, 'we were "Commercial Gentlemen". A few years later, as we grew more numerous, we were "Commercial Travellers". Now, when trade is abnormally bad, we are described as "Commercial Troublers", and if it does not expand soon (of which there is no sign), many of the body will simply be "Commercial Mendicants".'
The road did indeed wind uphill for many late-Victorian and Edwardian salesmen. Securing a buyer's attention was by no means easy, holding it even harder. Although samples were less necessary than before in the chemical and other trades where brand names had become established, they remained essential in other lines. E.B. Grieve devotes a whole chapter of his 1903 instructional manual to the topic of opening the sample bag.
For drapers' suppliers a mere bag was insufficient. Porters' trolleys accompanied them from shop to shop. Or not, as in the case of an unfortunate silks salesman of Joseph Brown's acquaintance. Emerging after breakfast to begin his day's rounds in Newcastle, he learnt that a rival had redirected his barrowman to Gateshead.

Cheaper fare was now served at the commercial dinner, still traditionally eaten at 1.15 p.m., and wine had become an optional extra.

But they worked a twelve-hour day, mostly on their feet. If they merely raised and replaced their headgear instead of uncovering like true gentlemen, it was because in most shops there was nowhere where a hat could be deposited without causing inconvenience.
A more serious problem, to Warren's mind, was the recent appearance on the road of bumptious, rude, boastful and dishonest newcomers. …
