The Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves is a public-private initiative to save lives, improve livelihoods, empower women, and combat climate change by creating a thriving global market for clean and efficient household cooking solutions.
GACC on solar cooking
Direct solar thermal energy can be used to power solar cook stoves, which can save time, work, money, and combustible fuel in suitable circumstances. Unlike solar photovoltaic energy, which requires expensive PV cells to convert sunlight into electricity, solar thermal energy can be captured instantly and directly with a solar cooker, which generates zero emissions heat for cooking food and boiling water. By comparison, a one hundred square foot PV array would be needed to power a single hotplate. Solar thermal energy can also be used for solar hot water heaters, sterilizers and food driers.
- Health Emissions: Use of direct solar thermal energy to power cookstoves produces no smoke, thus eliminating health impacts associated with cooking over open fires or crude stoves.
- Climate Impacts: Solar energy use emits no greenhouse gasses and does not contribute to climate change.
- Fuel Efficiency: While the efficiency of solar thermal energy for cooking is dependent on sunshine, this "fuel" is available free of charge, making it an extremely cost-effective solution, especially for populations with limited access to other fuel sources.
- Fuel Availability: Most people cooking over open fires or on crude stoves live where sunshine is abundant and solar cooking is possible, as indicated by NASA's solar insolation maps. However, in the sun's absence there is often a need to burn combustibles as well, in which case multiple stove technologies can compliment each other. In some places solar can be the main source of household energy, while in others it is an excellent back-up energy source. As with other fuel efficient stoves, solar cookers are unfamiliar to most cooks in the developing world who are used to cooking over an open flame, so their adaptation to these stoves requires careful training and follow-up.
- March 18-22, 2013: (Phnom Penh) The Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves is sponsoring the Clean Cooking Forum 2013, to be held in Cambodia next spring. As with the five Biennial Partnership for Clean Indoor Air Forums, this will be an excellent opportunity for the household energy community to come together and share what is working around the world, what is causing it to work, and what we can do more of, better, or differently. This will an important event for solar cooking promoters to attend, share information, and show unity in a common mission. Registration information...
Recent news and developments
- November 2011: The EPA had decided to test at least one solar cooker for the GACC.
- October 2011: The World Health Organization says that the smoke and gases from cooking fires in the world's poorest countries contribute to nearly two million deaths a year — that's more than malaria. The Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves and the cookstove industry announced last year that they would work together to create a market for better cookstoves, under the aegis of the United Nations. The U.S. government has committed over US$50 million. Half of that will go to NIH for research on how much indoor air pollution needs to be reduced to produce real health gains. Read more...
- May 2011: On the public education front, Solar Household Energy(SHE) founding director Dar Curtis is participating as a contributing member of the Technology and Fuels Working Group of the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves. This alliance of governments, corporations and nonprofits is promoting cleaner cooking solutions than the open cooking fires and inefficient cookstoves used by three billion people around the world. Solar provides the very cleanest cooking of all cookstoves. Read more in the SHE spring update 2011.

The U.S. Coast Guard says it will convene a formal hearing on the sinking of the HMS Bounty.
The tall ship sunk in October approximately 90 miles off Cape Hatteras as Hurricane Sandy stormed up the Atlantic. The captain's body was never recovered, while another crewmember died after being found. Fourteen other people on the sailing ship were rescued by the Coast Guard.
The National Transportation Safety Board will join the Coast Guard in the hearing that begins on February 12th in Portsmouth, Virginia. The investigation will examine the circumstances relating to the sinking of the Bounty, as well as developing conclusions and recommendations to improve safety on other sailing ships.

Nearly one year after the deadly Listeria outbreak, a new crop of Rocky Ford cantaloupes are back on the shelves of Colorado grocery stores. King Soopers received their first shipment of cantaloupes Friday morning.
The outbreak sickened hundreds and killed at least thirty people. The outbreak was traced to Jensen Farms and it is still fresh on a lot of peoples mind.
"I was shocked at first I couldn't believe it after all these years of buying it," Jeanie Holzwarth said.
It even has some people skipping past that section of the produce aisle all together.
"Well I used to eat them a lot until last year. Now I stopped eating it," Richard Blummer explained.
While others plan to pick up this years cantaloupe but say they'll take extra precautions.
"I'm just going to make sure I wash them very well and scrub them down," Rosalyn Mitchell said.
11 News talked with Michael Hirakata, co-owner of Hirakata farms in Rocky Ford about the steps they take with their cantaloupe to ensure safety from the field to the packing plant.
"We're doing and taking every major precaution possible to ensure the safest product."
Hirakata says the cantaloupe first go through a shower rinse.
"We test our water and make sure the water is bacteria free," Hirakata explained.
The melons then go through soap antimicrobial, which kills bacteria, a final rinse and then they're placed in coolers. Hirakata says they also have two USDA audit inspections.
Although it's only their second day of harvest, Hirakata is hoping last years bacteria outbreak on the Jensen farm will not affect this years sales.
"Is it in the back of my mind, yes but it's hard to say because we just started, we have a very light volume right now so time will tell."
Although Jensen Farms used the Rocky Ford name in its brand, it was never part of the Rocky Ford Growers Association. The RFGA wants to remind customers to always rinse your cantaloupe under running water just before cutting it and to scrub the rind and cut it with a clean knife.

So, just because the long awaited videos for "Work, B*tch" [sic] and "Pour It Up" premiered on the same day, that doesn't mean the ladies releasing them are in a competition. But just as Katy was pitted against Lady when "Applause" and "Roar" were accidentally leaked on the same day, the media can be harsh to any two pop stars making headway in their craft simultaneously. Interestingly, these two videos mark a pinnacle in each artist's journey above the media, meaning, clearly, from the looks of today (October 2nd, 2013), both Brit Brit and Ri Ri don't G. a F. what the haters think now.
It took a lot for Britney to get here, and to proudly, absolutely campily exclaim, "you gotta work, bitch…" Because she's obviously saying it to herself. She's saying (like she did in that infamous Diane Sawyer interview 10 years ago), "Britney, be strong," because she and the media's tangled relationship has almost broken her many a paparazzi-captured moment in her short life. Since proclaiming in 1998 that she's "not that innocent," she was painted as a teen gone bad, and then a bad girl gone basic, since becoming a mom and divorcée. Spears learned the hard way that you're either in or you're ugly once you've signed on to stardom, and it looked as if she'd never be the hard-bodied dance sensation she once was again—if she couldn't grow a hard shell. That shell, it turns out, is made of patent leather, hinged metal plates, hairspray and a sense of humor, and it's as impressive as our first introduction to to Ms. Spears, if only because it has covered up so much hurt. We saw that shell first with Femme Fatale, and then we watched it get a little soft again (careful, there, Brit, the club doesn't like it when the beat isn't speeding up), but in "Work, B*tch," it's back, and it's mesmerizing. Embracing her fans of all walks of life (and sexual preferences) more and more explicitly, a subtle nod to Priscilla, Queen of the Desert acts as a loose plot for what is essentially a perfect platform to show off Brit's flawless body and signature dance moves—ones we haven't seen in way too long.
Rihanna, on the other hand, has had a rough relationship with the media as well, but instead of telling the flashing lights to leave her alone, she's taunted them, instagrammed enough editorial-worthy selfies to fill a magazine, and responded to trash talk publicly, on her own terms. Since a really messy breakup, Rih has tried to look the other way (and sometimes she, like all of us, ends up looking back). The video for "Pour It Up," like Britney's, is not necessarily groundbreaking. In fact, pair any video made today with one made when MTV started, and you'll notice a depressing difference: new videos are cheaper, with more smoke and mirrors (literally) and that easy-way-out super-saturated lighting paired with quick, distracting edits. Videos are sponsored, with long, awkward shots of a product interrupting an established beat. No matter how well styled a shoot is, clothes can start to look tacky when they become the focus of a dance song, only for want of any other features. But with what she had to work with, Rihanna's video for "Pour It Up" (another challenge being that the song has been in the clubs so long it isn't, anymore) is sexier than she's ever been (damn), and shows, as sassier fans would describe it "Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve and Talent." Never before has she worn a denim thong on camera without deleting the instagram post later. Never has she backed it up on a pole, letting the lasting bounce echo the last echoes of the song's gentle finish. Some may say that dressing up and performing as a stripper may be the least empowering act a woman who has been brutally mistreated by a man can do. To that she'd probably say, @badgalriri does what she wants, #SorryNotSorry. In other words, when the world tries to tell you what to do, turn on the sarcasm, and amp up the camp.
Like "Work," "Pour" is about a fem dom, surrounded by other sexy dancers in dangerous waters (the best part of "Work," sorry, is the sharks, which actually makes the whole production look expensive, finally). Both videos are extremely, overwhelmingly sexy, but almost tongue-in-cheek, a la Barbarella. Both have little to say, but make a big statement, historically, for each performer. What would make more sense, to a performer who must guard her privacy daily, than to make a glittering, decadent show of it? And by the way, V is impartial, having featured each icon as a cover star. Remember? Britney posed for Mario Testino with a playful Persian on V70, and Rihanna, also shot by Testino, posed for V82's cover with a playful Kate Moss. Both ladies have grown and donned shimmering layers of irony as of recent, and it's done them nothing but good, if you're reading the ratings. As for me, I'm partial to a more vulnerable, lovelorn pop singer… but I can see the draw, here, too.

|The chocolate is creamy and just the right amount of chocolatey flavor to blend with the "not too sweet" peanut butter. A classic taste combo gone upscale!
|- Pennymum
|The dark chocolate is what makes this bar so amazing. I bought this at an airport on a whim, was shocked at the price, but found it so amazing I went online a week after I got home and ordered more. Worth every penny.
|The salt is the key.
|Being a fan of the combination of peanut butter and chocolate, this was the first Vosges bar I tried. If you are expecting an out-of-this-world PB sensation, you'll be disappointed. The PB (and the dark milk chocolate) have a muted flavor. However, this bar's saving grace is the wonderful sea salts integrated into it. By far it is the greatest salt-flavored chocolate I have tasted--and I have had quite a few!
|- Jonathan Gill
|Having so many to choose from, this is by far the BEST candy bar in the collection. The peanut butter is incredibly smooth with just a hint of salt. Even better? It's organic :)
|- Stephanie Savory
|Decadent and delicious - perfectly balanced classic combination of PB and milk chocolate. Usually we enjoy Vosges bars 1-2 squares at a time over a span of a few days. This bar was so good and addicting....we finished it in one sitting!
|- Kathy
|My new favourite chocolate treat
|My husband and I recently purchased this. Usually chocolate can last in the house for months as we slowly nibble one small piece at a time. We devoured this! It is the perfect balance of salty and sweet. The peanut flavour is exceptional. Would definitely recommend and will be going back for more!
|- Jennifer
|so good
|One of my favorites (and I've tried almost all of them). Nothing revolutionary, but an excellent combination of the stated flavors.

Innovation from STMicroelectronics Boosts Safety, Reliability and Efficiency of Industrial-Automation SystemsWorld's first galvanic-isolation high-side switch with pure RF communication saves board space and power, enhances noise immunity
A wide variety of industrial-automation equipment, as well as general programmable logic controller (PLC) applications, will benefit from the enhanced space savings, user safety, noise immunity, reliability and energy efficiency offered by this new device.
Industrial switches require physical separation, or galvanic isolation, to protect the logic-controlled circuitry from disturbances on the power side, and to ensure user safety. Conventional, discrete optical isolators (opto-couplers) used for this purpose occupy additional pc-board space and are subject to aging and temperature-related degradation driving up ownership costs.
"The ISO8200B isolated high-side switch is the first integrated device from ST to combine galvanically isolated power and logic circuitry in the same package, allowing smaller controllers and lower cost of ownership," said Matteo Lo Presti, Group Vice President and General Manager, Industrial and Power Conversion Division, STMicroelectronics. "Moreover, as the industry's first such device to utilize a pure RF link enabling communication through the isolation layer, the ISO8200B provides superior noise immunity for ultra-robust and reliable operation."
Inside the ISO8200B, separate logic and power chips are stacked with the layer interposer that provides very high isolation. The inputs are connected directly to a microcontroller or FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), and the device can drive eight output channels connected to any kind of load connected to ground, whether inductive, capacitive or resistive. The ISO8200B meets the RF immunity standard IEC 61000-4-3.
The design of the IC also ensures low quiescent operating current, reducing power dissipation and saving energy compared to a traditional, opto-coupler based solution. In addition, the ISO8200B integrated power switch has very low on-state resistance, which minimizes system energy losses and ensures superior thermal performance for enhanced reliability.
The ISO8200B integrates circuitry for fast demagnetization of inductive loads such as motors or heaters, which delivers further space and cost savings. Built-in protection features guard against over-temperature, short circuit, under-voltage, over-voltage, loss-of-ground or loss-of-supply voltage. In addition a fault output allows direct monitoring of correct operation.
The ISO8200B is in production now in the PSO36 package, priced from $3.50 for orders over 1000 pieces.

The country will take part at the forthcoming Chinese traditional games taking place in China from July 28 to 30 this year, the Tanzania National Traditional Games Association (CHAMIJATA), disclosed over the week-end in Dar es Salaam.
Speaking to the media at a press briefing in Dar es Salaam, the association's Chairman Mohamed Hussein Kazigumbe said the country would be represented by two people at the event.
He said the Chinese government sent an invitation to Tanzania in April this year and is ready to pay for the athletes' expenses.
He could not divulge names of the athletes saying his association's technical committee was scouting for the best athletes and would later name them.
Kazigumbe said the Chinese government saw the local athletes at the World Traditional Games which was held in Southern Korea in the 2008 and 2010 and were impressed with the performances of the local athletes.
He said the country is the only African country which has been attending the World Traditional Games because it's the only African country which use original traditional equipments at the games, unlike other African countries who use tools which do not originated from their countries..
The CHAMIJATA chairman asked Tanzanians to appreciate their local traditional games saying the games were a sign of unity among people of various culture.
He also disclosed that his association will host the National Traditional games in August in Dar es Salaam. He said the event will go along with the association's general elections whereby district and regional bearers will be selected.

quote:She gave her Nobel Prize money to the poor in India; not the Vatican.
She just gave money to the Vatican.
I see no irony there.
She believed in poverty and suffering, raised money on the backs of the poor, suffering Indians and never did anything to improve the medical care or lessen their suffering. She just gave money to the Vatican.
What did she do that was "good"?
oh the irony
the late Christopher Hitchens
Total POS enjoying his dirt nap and dat heat...
The fact that you believe in hell.. I just love it
No, the reason Teresa has been elevated by radical atheists above everyone else in the League Of Evil Religious Crackpots is because she's an easy target. Today's New Atheists, more interested in getting their religion-hating rocks off than in actually Enlightening anyone, love crusading against Teresa because she indulged in a so-unsophisticated and foreign form of Christianity. Religion in the Third World, with its old-fashioned figureheads and its sometimes desperate adherents, makes for a far easier, and far more fun, target than the subtle religious practices of modern Western society. For today's campaigning atheists, the sight of a little old woman in an off-white habit providing hammocks for poor, wide-eyed Indians is too bizarre and backward to let pass by. And lacking the intellectual faculties and old-style atheistic humanity to explain such practices, they merely mock them, denounce them, laugh at them over their £3 lattes.
Indeed, much of the Teresa-baiting is aimed not at the woman herself, but at her thick and gullible followers. Hitchens described his book about Mother Teresa as an argument 'not with a deceiver but with the deceived', her 'credulous and uncritical' followers. 'In the gradual manufacture of an illusion, the conjuror is only the instrument of the audience', he said. A favourable review of Hitchens' book, written while Mother Teresa was still alive in 1996, said 'one can only be appalled by the lack of intellectual sophistication of her admirers who hold her in such high esteem and who seize upon her every asinine comment as a sign of her astuteness and philosophical depth'. This is not a serious or intellectual dismantling of the meaning, impact and structures of religion; it is fundamentally fun-poking at dumb Indians.
piece of garbage
I admittedly don't know much about MT, but what if these guys have a point?
I've asked before "What if the Dalai Lama is an a-hole?" It's a legit question.

Even though, according to science, our planet has a good 5bn years to run, it seems we are obsessed with the thought that it can't last, Alex Walsh, head of mailing agents and trade associations at Royal Mail.
Archaeologists have even found some Assyrian tablets from 2,800BC that predict the end of the world within a few years. Isaac Newton, one of our greatest scientists, devoted 40 years of his life to trying to calculate the end of the world. He arrived at a date of 2057, so we'll have to wait to see if he was right. And predictions about the end of the world continue to this day. But we tolerate them because we know that nothing lasts forever.
Even the planet itself will one day stop spinning on its familiar axis and life as we know it will end.
The only question is "when?".
But the direct marketing industry seems to be an exception. Either it hasn't noticed that the world is changing or it has preferred to stick its head in the sand like an ostrich and pretend that it isn't.
You only have to look at what has happened with UK legislation to see a very clear and obvious trend. First we had the Data Protection Act, which was a direct result of a European data protection directive. This directive set out basic data protection principles but was not prescriptive about how the member states should interpret "consent". This allowed the UK -- unlike most EU countries -- to adopt the principle of opt-out, or implied consent.
The next piece of UK data protection legislation, a few years later, was the Telecommunications (Data Protection and Privacy) Regulations. Here, for the first time, we saw compulsory use of a Preference Service (TPS) and opt-in, or specific consent, for some media such as fax.
And then last year we had the Privacy in Electronic Communications Regulations where the principle is opt-in except in certain special circumstances. This piece of data protection legislation (like the others before it) is a direct result of an EU directive but the difference this time was that what constituted consent was very tightly defined in the directive and didn't allow the member states to interpret in any other way than opt-in.
So we can see a definite trend towards more restrictive legislation and less flexibility for the UK government -- even if it wanted to -- to interpret consent as anything other than opt-in.
And the pressure for opt-in across all direct marketing media isn't just coming from Europe. Some of it is coming from Westminster as well. There are concerns about the amount of waste going to landfill and the industry's apparent lack of interest in the environmental impact of direct marketing (in spite of the DMA's voluntary recycling targets agreed with government). This has led to many politicians, from all political parties, suggesting that the only solution is to stop waste "at source" by giving consumers the right to opt in.
Which is why I believe that opt-in legislation for all direct marketing is inevitable, and that the only question is "when?".

If you have a baby in your house, or know others that do, you'll want to know about an effort by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to inform parents of a dangerous type of infant recliner.
The CPSC says that Nap Nanny Generation One and Two, and Chill model infant recliners contain defects in the design, warnings and instructions, which pose a substantial risk of injury and death to infants.
The CPSC has filed an administrative complaint against the manufacturer, Baby Matters, LLC, of Berwyn, PA and is seeking an order requiring that the firm notify the public of the defect and offer consumers a full refund.
CPSC is aware of four infants who died in Nap Nanny Generation Two recliners and a fifth death involved the Chill model.
To date, CPSC has received a total of over 70 additional incident reports of children nearly falling out of the product. The staff alleges that the products create a substantial risk of injury to the public.
CPSC staff filed the administrative complaint against Baby Matters, LLC after discussions with the company and its representatives failed to result in an adequate voluntary recall plan that would address the hazard posed by consumer use of the product in a crib or without the harness straps being securely fastened.
In July 2010, CPSC and Baby Matters, LLC issued a joint recall news release to announce an $80 coupon to Generation One owners toward the purchase of a newer model and improved instructions and warnings to consumers who owned the Generation Two model of Nap Nanny recliners.
At the time of the July 2010 recall, CPSC was aware of one death that had occurred in a Nap Nanny recliner and 22 reports of infants hanging or falling out over the side of the Nap Nanny even though most of the infants had been placed in the harness. Subsequently, despite the improvements to the warnings and instructions, the complaint alleges that additional deaths using Nap Nanny recliners have been reported, including one in a Chill model.
The Nap Nanny is a portable infant recliner designed for sleeping, resting and playing. The recliner includes a shaped foam base with an inclined indentation for the baby to sit and a fitted fabric cover with a three point harness.
Five thousand Nap Nanny Generation One and 50,000 Generation Two models were sold between 2009 and early 2012 and have been discontinued. One hundred thousand Chill models have been sold since January 2011. All were priced around $130.

The National School Boards Association's (NSBA) Director of the Education Technology, Ann Flynn, and Project Facilitator for Nevada's Clark County School District, Margie Zamora, appeared on Education Talk Radio discussing how technology is transforming education.
NSBA' Technology Leadership Network (TLN) host several site visits throughout the school year showcasing outstanding use of educational technology.
Since 1987, TLN has served local district leadership teams that establish policy and implement technology decisions to enhance teaching and learning, administrative operations, and community outreach.
Through NSBA's technology site visits, school leaders are able to see education technology innovation in action and develop their own successful initiatives. This is a great opportunity for school leaders to witness classrooms where curriculum goals drive technology decisions.
From April 25-27, 2012 NSBA will host a site visit in Clark County, the nation's fifth largest with nearly 310,000 students, encompasses both Las Vegas and its outlying communities.
Ranked first in last year's Digital School District Survey by the Center for Digital Education and NSBA , Clark County uses technology to provide enterprise systems that support the business of learning and provide engaging 21st century experiences for all students. From cyberbullying prevention initiatives and "bring your own device" pilot programs, to online professional development and extensive use of social networking systems, this visit offers examples of innovation that can be applied in districts of any size.

Dolph Ziggler Brazzers deal
Some further details have been revealed about the offer that Brazzers made to Dolph Ziggler. He revealed during an interview that the porn company offered him a deal for $10,000. He also mentioned something about being able to pick his own partner. The goal was to use his popularity with professional wrestling fans to draw in people to their content. Obviously, WWE would not allow this to happen, as it would create negative news headlines.

Science Fantasy = Bionicle
Posted by bonesiii , Nov 12 2007 · 848 views
Reminder: The Pet Peeve Contest is open till November 29.
One of the most asked questions about Bionicle is "What genre is it?" There's a lot of confusion about this, and today the Bones Blog brings you the answer to the question (and to why it's confusing!).
There's a standard conversation that I see very often in S&T and other places. It goes something like this.
Member A: "What genre is Bionicle?"
Member B: "It's science fiction."
Member C: "No, it's fantasy!"
Member D: "It's supposed to be fantasy but there's all these machines messing things up."
Member E: "It always had machines! It's science fiction but there's these mystical themes."
Member F: "I agree."
And on and on, ad infinitum. In reality, these members are falling prey to the logical fallacy of false dilemma/dichotomy; also known as the "Either/Or" fallacy.
It's Both
The answer is really very simple -- it's both! Bionicle is science fantasy. This is what Greg Farshtey has labeled it, and objectively speaking, it has all the elements of this genre. It is a blend of science fiction and fantasy themes.
But you're probably thinking "But bones, but bones, I've never seen a sticky label on a book that says 'science fantasy'!" Very true. Science fantasy is a relatively new genre, and much that is in it is mislabeled as one or the other. Not everyone knows the term; not everyone even agrees that this is the term to use. There are some out there trying to push their own invented term for this new genre, probably hoping for the fame of inventing "the term".
This has happened before. Science fiction was once a new genre too. When it first became popular, a plethora of terms popped up, everybody trying to promote the term they invented. It took a long time for the term "science fiction" to catch on. Now "science fantasy" is going through the same process. If you watch the "Sci-Fi" channel, you might notice that a lot of what they show feels more like fantasy. If you watch Star Wars for example, it's labeled science fiction, but there's the mystical element of the Force that the story centers around.
One of the biggest problems is -- how are science fiction and fantasy defined? If you research this, you'll discover everybody has their own opinion, and they usually try to define it with some clever concoction of words, rather than simply looking at it logically. Well, this logician has his own opinion on it.
Physics Fiction Spectrum
Science fiction, science fantasy, and fantasy are all within a larger category that we could call "Physics Fiction". If you think about it, the common trait of them all is that physics is important to the storyline, as opposed to more "real world" fiction.
What's more, "Physics Fiction" is a spectrum, not three seperate categories. At one end, science fiction focuses on real physics. The story centers around what real phsycists, scientists, etc. know about how our world works and takes it in an imaginative direction. At the other end, fantasy focuses on fictional physics. The story features physics invented by the author; taking physics itself in an imaginative direction. In between, science fantasy merges the two, melding real phsyics with fictional ones to give the fictional physics more of a sense of realism while also giving the imagination freedom.
So here's what the spectrum looks like if you consider examples of popular physics fiction examples:
Bionicle is probably one of the prime examples of "pure" science fantasy. You've got fictional elemental energy, protodermis, Kanohi, etc. and yet you've got machinery, technology, etc. blended together. Star Wars is another good example.
Don't Misunderstand
One myth that needs cleared up. This spectrum has NOTHING to do with the physics being "realistic". There's a big different between that and "real". "Real" phsyics are what our world just happens to have. "Realistic" physics is what is logically plausible in a fictional universe; physics that make sense but just happen to be different from ours. So just because Harry Potter's physics of magic spells are not real does not make them "unrealistic", nor does the presence of elemental energy in Bionicle mean that Bionicle physics are implausible.
All quality physics fiction presents its physics as making sense. Some scifi or fantasy might keep the physics secret, presenting it as a mystery, but it's still intended to make sense. Some poorer quality science fiction might have just as implausible physics as poor quality fantasy. Science fantasy is not a compromise on physics making sense -- it simply delves into fictional physics, yet stays grounded in some real physics too. Of course, this excludes comedy examples that use nonsensical physics for comedic value.
Another myth is that science fiction always takes place in the future while fantasy takes place in the past -- this is OFTEN true, but not always. Scifant often plays with this idea; Star Wars takes place long ago, for example, while Dune takes place in the future. Narnia took place in the present, as did Jurassic Park. Back to the Future took place all over time, but was grounded in the present. Bionicle isn't even in our universe at all, so it's not in the past, present, or future.
Still another myth is that the vague concepts of "science" or "technology" are by definition only for science fiction. No, "science" is the study of physics, real or not, and technology is the use of those physics in machinery and the like. Within the fictional context of a world like Bionicle, the fictional physics is "real", and so there's no reason the Matoran cannot study it and use those physics to make machines such as Chutes, Vahki, Zamor Launchers, or Lava Boards. In Harry Potter, for example, there are magical machines and all sorts of technology that makes use of the fictional physics within that world. So don't mistake scifant for a melding of technology and mystical or natural themes. That is simply a theme that is popular in science fantasy because those two aspects do "feel" like either scifi or fantasy. But technically, science and technology are possible all throughout physics fiction.
Popular Genre
Lately there's been a shift among the public in popular genres, and story authors and observers are only just beginning to catch on. In the fairly recent past, the "science fiction" end of the spectrum was very popular. There is a giant collection of scifi fiction works out there, but most of it ceased in the late eighties. Some of the popular themes were starships, time travel, and alien planets. Star Trek has stood for all three of those for a long time.
But nowadays, there's been a shift away from science fiction and towards fantasy, largely due to Harry Potter's success. People are tired of real physics, which often feels dry and "heady", and they enjoy the more mystical feel of fantasy, which gives more of a sense of freedom to tell enjoyable stories and focus on characters without the headaches required both to create and absorb quality science fiction. Recently we witnessed the failure of Star Trek's latest spinoff for this reason (among others), and this is also why you're seeing the "scifi" channel delving into fantasy and scifant a lot more.
The negative reaction has been especially strong in the time travel category. Time travel used to be the perfect gimmick for get-rich-quick moviemaking schemers. Throw time travel in your story and BAM, popular. But the public seems to have either caught on or gotten tires of the complex mechanics of time travel. The latest example was "Daybreak" on ABC, which bombed in the ratings, despite it being highly enjoyable to physics geeks like me who love time travel, and even despite being actual high quality in terms of characterization. Even LOST may have been hurt by its use of time travel (or apparent time travel) in Season 3, which had dropping ratings. Thus I'm very, very glad Bioniicle has a rule against time travel, even if I'd personally enjoy it.
At the same time, science fantasy has benefitted from this shift. Scifant that avoids time travel is pretty popular now, with Star Wars even doing well in its latest movies with starships and alien planets. The theme seems to be that enjoyable storyline is what the public wants most, and science fantasy allows this. Delving into fantasy physics frees up the storyline to have epic danger without getting too "heady" and "technobabbly", unlike science fiction.
Also, one of my theories has been that we are living in an over-teched society nowadays, but we are still human -- we still long for nature. At the same time, we wouldn't want to live like Suvivor contestants -- we like some technology. Thus science fantasy that feels like a melding of nature and technology is naturally pleasing to people living in today's society -- it presents a world many of us wish we could live in, even if we don't consciously realize it.
Bionicle is "science fantasy", a blend of themes between science fiction and fantasy. It is in the center of a "Physics Fiction Spectrum", which is fiction that focuses on physics. Real physics are at one end of the spectrum, fictional physics at the other. In feel, Bionicle is a melding of nature, "magic", and technology. Its physics is designed to be different from our own, but to make sense and even feel somewhat 'scientific'.

A stock with a high "days to cover" value compared to its peers would be considered to have a higher level of short interest as compared to those peers. This could mean short sellers are using the stock to hedge a long bet elsewhere, or could also mean that short sellers believe the price of the stock will decline. When short sellers eventually cover their positions, by definition there must be buying activity because a share that is currently sold short must be purchased to be covered. So investors tend to keep an eye on that "days to cover" metric, because a high value could predict a sharper price increase should the company put out some unexpectedly good news — short sellers might rush to cover positions, and if the "days to cover" number is high, it is more difficult to close those positions without sending the stock higher until the higher price produces enough sellers to generate the necessary volume.

So, on that morning while I was about to do drive out to finish up my errands, Susan called me and asked if I could have lunch with them that very afternoon instead and that she will drive me around to finish up my errands! I'm not sure whether it would be a good idea because I'm a person who does not like to trouble people. However, due to the time constraint and the fact that I really wanted to meet Susan and Anna again before I headed back to Vancouver, I agreed with Susan.
Anyway, after running my errands together with Susan we headed to the Sunway Pyramid to meet Anna. Then we were debating what to have for lunch. After looking at the directory of the shopping mall, we decided to try out a Middle Eastern restaurant. Guess what? After 15 minutes of searching for the outlet, we found out that they were closed! Sigh!!! Then, we saw Ole Ole Bali. The restaurant deco looks very Balinese and we thought why not? Can't be that bad, right?
Well, turns out, the food was good and the atmosphere was great too! You know, above all, for me I must say it's the company that makes everything beautifully! I'm going to miss Susan and Anna a lot. We've been great friends for many years now and I guess for the time being we will have to keep in touch with each other through the Internet again. (Thank god for the Brilliant INTERNET!)
Lemongrass Mojito - So refreshing!
Squid Salad - Yummy!

Go behind the scenes on the WSDOT Blog:
How will we address long-term solutions for I-405? I-405 routinely ranks as one of the state's most congested corridors. Starting more than a decade ago, WSDOT worked with cities, counties, federal agencies, transit agencies and community groups to develop consensus on a long-term vision for the multimodal redevelopment of this highway.This effort culminated in a three-year environmental impact statement development process that outlines transit, roadway and environmental investments. The EIS, approved with the Record of Decision in October 2002, now serves as the corridor Master Plan. WSDOT continues to work with local communities and transit agencies to improve I-405.
What has the I-405 Corridor Program accomplished to date?
Since the master plan for I-405 improvements (PDF) was adopted, we have focused on funding groups of projects that directly address the worst congestion chokepoints first, coordinating all transportation modes into a working system. With funding from the 2003 Nickel and 2005 Transportation Partnership Account, the state has invested nearly $1.5 billion into the corridor. Four Nickel-funded projects are complete (Kirkland Nickel Stage 1, South Bellevue Widening, Renton Stage 1 - Widening and the NE 116th Interchange and Street Improvement project). Three TPA-funded projects are complete (NE 10th Street Bridge-Stage 2, Renton Stage 2 - Widening, and NE 8th Street to SR 520 Improvement project), and one is under construction (NE 6th to I-5 Widening and Express Toll Lanes). Another project, the I-405/SR 167 Direct Connector is in the preliminary design stage, using corridor project savings.The End Result: An Improved Multimodal SystemThe I-405 Master Plan is a balanced, multimodal plan to guide future transportation investments. Highlights include:
What projects are currently unfunded?Several critical funding gaps remain in the corridor, including priority projects at the I-405/SR 167 interchange and the portion of I-405 between Renton and Bellevue. These projects will be constructed as funding becomes available.
Current funded I-405 improvement projects underway include:
