Trying to get motivated
View CHRISSY3562's Sparkpage

Friday, October 29, 2010
I fell off the diet wagon again, so I'm trying to get motivated again. I've written two goals on my mirror in erasable pen for the week. I also added them to my other goals here. One is related to my diet, the other exercise. This week's goals are to not drink any soda at work (I get unlimited free soda) and to use my weighted hula hoop for 15 min a day. I'm hoping by doing this they will become lifestyle changes.
Once I get a week or two into my routine, I'm going to start telling my boyfriend about my goals for the week and ask him to help keep me accountable. He asked about how my diet was going yesterday, having figured out that I stopped exercising again (he lives 160 miles away so he couldn't know for sure). When I said I'd stopped and asked if he knew, he said yes but that dieting is a very private thing so he didn't want to pry. This encouraged me without making me feel bad about stopping for a while, which is why I want him to help me stay accountable after a few weeks.
I hope this time I can stick with this until I meet my goals. I want coworkers, friends, and family to notice the progress I make without telling them what I'm doing because that is big motivation for me. I'm not expecting instant gratification, and need to keep reminding myself to push through on the days I feel like I can't do it.

You can do it! Those are great goals to have and it's so nice that you have a supportive/non-nagging bf to help. Just try to take one day at a time and not get too discouraged if you mess up. Every day is a new day, just start again. You'll see results soon and then all the wolf-whistles and compliments will start flying!!

As the folk tales of the new freak talent with the big contract and bigger beard spread throughout town, the conversation took on hushed tones in its reverence for and distrust of this coming era of good feelings, the crowds too used to the lean years to cheer too loudly again. Things changed, unspoken hopes deflated a bit, and now Rockets followers likely find themselves in the same head space with which they entered the season: excited but confused about the prospects of this peculiarly built .500 team. That wariness— the kind very reasonably clung to by people who just can't stomach one more ninth-place-in-the-West finish— might prevail as the prominent state of those devoted to the red and yellow this year, but everyone involved must remember the new stakes, that this teams stands for more than the fifteen men on its roster, more than even the city of Houston itself: this is a team of change.

Sony Xperia Z and 4 other smartphones of the moment
With the Sony Xperia Z being officially launched in the UAE this week, Kipp takes a look at the major players in the smartphone market.
February 19, 2013 11:26 by Eva Fernandes
It was with much fanfare that Sony launched its most recent smartphone Xperia Z at Atlantis yesterday. The first phone to be launched since the company dropped the 'Ericsson' appendage a year ago. The Xperia Z boasts some pretty impressive specs: from its quad core 1.5 Ghz processor, 2GB RAM and 1920 X 1080 pixel 441 ppi resolution, the 5-inch phone seems to be a decent alternative to the megaphones offered by the top players of the market. But will it be enough to gain the attention of the mature tech-savvy user? We'll see when the phone launches in the UAE and MENA market this March.
BlackBerry Z10
With a smaller 4.2-inch screen, the Z10 provides its user with a 355ppi and a resolution of 1280 x 768, the new Z 10 has a 8 megapixel rear camera just like the iPhone 5 and the S3. The Z10 actually has a RAM capacity of 2GB, with a dual core 1.5 Ghz processor promises a smoother quicker experience with the new Blackberry 10 operating system. Since its launch, the phone has got charitable reviews at the very least. Here in the UAE, Blackberry fans have scrambled to get their hands on the new device, but limited supply has seen many disappointed. Whether this disappointment will extend to the device's capability, will be evident by the end of next quarter.
LG Optimus G Pro
More of a phablet than a phone, the LG Optimus G Pro will be released in South Korea later this week, but it is expected to be released in the United States in the second quarter. With a 5.5-inch display and a 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution, the phablet promises a much faster processor with a 1.7GHz quad core Snapdragon processor. The 13-megapixel rear-facing camera is a slight towards the paltry 8-megapixel camera offered on the Samsung Galaxy Note 2.
Motorolla's RAZR MAXX HD
A relatively older contender, Motorolla's RAZR MAXX HD brings significantly lower specs to the table. From its 1 GB RAM to its 4.7-inch AMOLED display, 1280×720 pixel resolution and 8 megapixel camera, the phone doesn't quite stand out – except for its 3300mAh battery, which has always been Motorolla's strongest suit.
Samsung Galaxy SIII
It might seem a bit redundant to mention the darling of the smartphone market the Samsung Galaxy III. Launched with a 4.8-inch screen, a 1280 x 720 resolution and 306ppi, a quad core 1.4 GHZ Cortex A9 processor and a 8 megapixel camera, the phone doesn't quite compare to the others on this list. None the less, with a new release expected next month with much anticipation, the SIII may very well go down as the phone that got Samsung finally got right.
*And just a noteworthy mention of the new launch HTC has up its sleeve, sometime this week.

Emal plans further expansion
Emirates Aluminium to keep pace with the growing market.
May 8, 2013 4:06 by Reuters
Emirates Aluminium (Emal), a joint venture between Abu Dhabi investment fund Mubadala and Dubai Aluminium, is planning a further smelter expansion for around 2017, its CEO said.
The group is on track to complete its $4 billion phase two by the end of 2014, when it capacity will rise to 1.3 million tonnes from the current 800,000 tonnes a year, making it one of the largest single-site smelters in the world.
The global aluminium industry is already facing a massive stock overhang, which is growing each month as smelters produce more than the world economy needs.
"Emal is still planning to build further capacity, however, as it expects demand for aluminium to rise from 46 million tonnes to 60 million tonnes by 2015," Emal chief executive, Saeed al-Mazrooei, told reporters during a visit on Tuesday to the smelter complex sited between Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
"The international market is growing for aluminium in many countries – China, India, Brazil, the United States. This demands us to grow," he added.
Asked if a third phase could be launched around 2017, Mazrooei said he hoped so, adding that the company's state-backed owners would unveil details later. He declined to elaborate on the investment outlay or production capacity.
The majority of Emal's production is exported to the US, Europe, southeast Asia and the Middle East. Only approximately 200,000 tonnes is consumed locally, he said.
Emal, which burns vast quantities of natural gas to make the electricity it needs in order to operate the energy-intensive aluminium industry, has secured supplies for phase one and two from Abu Dhabi National Oil Co (ADNOC), Mazrooei said.
Cheap gas supplied to state-linked industry has driven a boom of energy-intensive development in the United Arab Emirates over the last decade which, combined with rapid immigration, has turned the UAE from a gas exporter into a net gas importer.
As there is not enough gas to go around, Dubai, which owns half of Emal, has to import increasing volumes of expensive liquefied natural gas (LNG) from around the world to meet demand for electricity.

So I ran today. It was my second run. It went much better after doing kettle bells the day before. I just felt like my body was more stable and I wasn't wobbling everywhere. So strength is a requirement.
Here is the funny thing. I avoid counting calories. I just try to eat good stuff and eat until I am not hungry anymore. Since I have so much weight to lose, any decrease in food intake means I will lose weight. As an emotional eater, counting calories can trigger my anxiety and bingeing so I avoid it. However, the running thing really is kicking my butt.
After I finish a session, I am weak and shaky and it is hard to get out of my house in the morning. I eat a snack of PB and 1/2 a banana in the morning with water and then I had a bowl of oatmeal, PB and banana with a bit of cinnamon after working out. But I still was weak and ended up staring blankly at a wall for 15 minutes too tired to move. Great. So now I may have to count calories just to make sure I am getting enough food to continue running. I never expected that.
But I am happy I was able to run. Another SP member's running plan gave me the idea that I can make my own however I need it to be.

Reviews for The Book of Legends
Did not expect this...lconanl | Nov. 21, 2015 | See all lconanl's reviews »
Going into an indie RPG, especially one that I knew nothing about, I set my expectations low. Boy, was I wrong! The book of Legends is one of those games that may not instantly impress you, but it certainly gets your attention. Probably the strongest point of the game, the excellent writing is what differentiates this game from most other RPGs (and games in general). While the story itself isn't particularly original, it manages to create a world that feels real, with interesting and unique characters and locations. More specifically, this game has some of the best dialogue -both with NPSs and between party members and villains, which are also very well written by the way- and lore/background I've seen (especially for an indie game). The main character, Jordan, is what should seal the deal for you buying this game, him being the principal source of comedy in this game and a highlight overall (not that there aren't any noticeable others). Also, there are many plot-twists in the story, some more predictable than others. With regard to other elements, the game's soundtrack is quite good, taking advantage of multiple genres such as rock, electronic and ambient, but nothing too amazing. Same goes for the graphics departament (the game is made in RPG Maker after all), but that's not to say it looks bad. There is some very good artistic direction present and it is clear that the designers knew what they were doing. In my opinion, the only part of the game that can be criticised is the gameplay - more precisely, the combat. The limitations imposed by the game's engine can make some battles relatively annoying and repetitive, and considering that there are well over 20 possible party members (yay, variety!), this can prove to be quite the flaw. Still, there are plenty of games out there that have far worse battle systems (including some from the Final Fantasy series that the veteran JRPG player may be reminded of by playing this game), so anyone who likes RPGs shouldn't be affected by the not-so-strong points of the game and look for the highlights instead (and there are much more of the former). If you're looking for fleshed-out characters, an interesting world and lots of fun and challenging quests, then The Book of Legends is definetly the game for you.
Surprisingly greatsycomantis1991 | June 24, 2015 | See all sycomantis1991's reviews »
Despite the bland title, this is an excellent game. The battle system is deep, the story is great, and every character is interesting. The art style isn't the best, but there's a lot of creativity to the designs. Overall, this is probably the company's best RPG, and it's a really good indie RPG overall.
Excellent JRPGpenfold82 | Dec. 24, 2014 | See all penfold82's reviews »
I've only played a few of JRPGs but I quite like them. The Book of Legends has a similar style and feel to the others as you would expect. What is different about The Book of Legends is how big it is. There is so much to do in this game. There is plenty of exploration and interaction that you can do while trying to achieve the goals of the storyline. I've played for a few hours and have barely made a dent on it. The combat, which is frequent, can feel quite repetitive as there is little variation in combat as you wander around in a particular area. If this sort of thing doesn't bother you, you'll have no trouble sinking many hours into this game.
The best title Aldorlea has to offerAndrogyn | May 22, 2014 | See all Androgyn's reviews »
3 Stars of Destiny is the first game I played but Book of Legends is probably the best of the lot (I still have some to play though). It might be a little bit difficult but nothing a smart player cannot overcome. I recommend to play in the easiest of the two modes so you can benefit from the auto-save after each fight, a really cool feature. This game is long, very long, and has a pretty epic story with many twists and turns, making it a must-play for most RPG fans out there. Recommended.
A Pretty Good RPGAlmostward | April 12, 2014 | See all Almostward's reviews »
I haven't completed this game yet, but I do know one thing. This game is amazing. The fights are like classic SNES rpg fights, and there are a lot of party members you can get. And if that's not enough you have many decisions to make in the game. Like you can choose to kick one party member for a new on, or spare a life to join your team. Also there are many funny things that have made me laugh. Mostly talks with NPC, but sometimes I find them by walking up to objects and the main character says something. I have 4 hours in this game and I think I may still be in the beginning. If you are a fan of classic RPGs that has some comedy. Then this game is for you.

Basketball coach fired after team turns in uniforms
Saturday, January 19, 2002
JOHNSTON CITY, Ill. -- School officials in this Southern Illinois town suspended their boys' varsity basketball coach for the rest of the season after the team turned in their uniforms to protest his methods.
Keil Peebles, a former basketball star at Southern Illinois University at Edwards-ville, was told his services were no longer required after a contentious emergency school board meeting Thursday night, when members of the team and several parents told officials he was verbally abusive.
Peebles, who was suspended with pay, could be hired to coach again next year, said John Metzger, the district's superintendent. He said no decision has been made. A replacement will be named to finish the season, he said.
Metzger suspended the SIUE record-holder after the boys' basketball team returned from a game Wednesday night and left their uniforms at the high school, refusing to play again under the man who has led the Indians for the past four years.
"It was irreconcilable differences between them and the coach," Metzger said. School officials did not find fault with Peebles, but rather suspended him to save the season, Metzger said.
Varsity team members released a statement Thursday accusing Peebles -- who was also a star at Johnston City -- of belittling players during practice and at games, calling some "dummy" and "a waste of space."
Peebles "has singled out members of our team and degraded them in front of the other members of our team," the statement said.
"We did not walk out only for our team, but for the future members of the basketball team. We do not want kids younger than us to be ... broken down to the same level that we have."
The team said that a name-calling incident Wednesday night pushed players to take action after years of frustration.
Peebles, who does not teach at the school, could not be reached for comment.

We loved this! Like others said...we had all the ingredients on hand except the T-bone...so I used NY strips...I let mine sit in the tasty juices for about 6 hours...quick and easy to prepare...I cooked mine on my cast iron grill pan...the meat just melted in our mouth...it's that tender... Thanks for posting it...=)
Wow, was this good. I knew that we would enjoy it based on the ingredients and I was right. I marinated the t-bone steaks for 9 hours. They were so flavorful....mmmmmm I can still taste them, grilled for 5 minutes per side...they were perfect. Beautifully cooked, medium rare and so tender. Thanks for sharing my new goto steak marinade. Made exactly as written wouldn't change a thing, quick and easy with tremendous results.
Wonderful! Perfect flavor. We only grilled ours for 5 min. per side and that left them slightly pink. Thanks! I made this for Went to market recipe tag.

Mere words cannot express the amount of sheer delight I felt while reading through your post, Jo. Thank you so much for it. <3; And don't apologize for making it a tl;dr, I always enjoy reading those, as I've already mentioned it tons of times before while corresponding with you through our PMs. Love you for it. Thanks again! <3;
This is, pretty much, my last piece of work before I disappear from PC for a while:
Not much has been done with the original stock; mostly lighting enhancement and placement of those two 'D' in it. But I really, really like it for some reason, haha.

"There is one location. We know it as Area 51 in America, Utah. They are preparing a massive slide. They are building Slide Generators and timers there." Professor Justine Robson answered.
"So they are preparing new incursions. So many worlds will be at risk." Archer said.

"There is one location. We know it as Area 51 in America, Utah. They are preparing a massive slide. They are building Slide Generators and timers there." Professor Justine Robson answered.
This fanfic is a short story sequel to the fanfic WHO:1999.
Terrible noises of explosions and flashes of blue light could be heard and seen respectively on the viewscreen in the TARDIS.
There were three men in the TARDIS at the time. A young man, with short wavy hair, wearing a long green velvet jacket, a waistcoat with a pocket watch and a cravat, looked quite worried at the current happening.
"I couldn't have imagined this would have happened. Or have happened now." the man uttered. He was the Doctor, his Eight Incarnation now.
He had been to another universe where he had picked up his two current companions, Paul Morrow and Professor Victor Bergman. They had just entered the Doctor's Universe-777.
Passing through the Vortex, the TARDIS had breached the inter-universe barriers and as soon as they arrived in the Doctor's universe-777, they witnessed an explosion in the Vortex.
"Does this happen often?" Victor enquired. His scientific studies hadn't prepared him for what he was experiencing.
"No! The walls of the multiverse have deteriorated!" the Doctor exclaimed.
"Was it our fault?" Paul asked. "Did we cause this ourselves by coming here?"
"No of course not, I've been doing this for ages untold. The Time Lords – they are my people – being present allow travel to parallel dimensions. They keep open the pathways. Something has happened. There is a "storm" in the "pathways" right now."
"A storm, Doctor? What kind of storm would that be? A temporal storm?" Victor asked.
"More of a warstorm. A warm is brewing. I knew it had started. It has been for quite a while now. It started on Skaro a long time ago, it's the home planet of the Daleks. They are the enemies of the Time Lords. Or on BeretWorld, an interdimensional nexus.
Well there already was another Time War before, but this.. this will be = no this is = worse, much worse."
"Can't you go back in time, Doctor? Stop it from happening in the first place." Paul asked.
"I can't go back in my personal timeline. And the Time Lords will be trying all they can", the Doctor answered. "It doesn't seem as if I will be able to take you back to where you came from. Or returning back to your universe any time soon."
"It's not as if we had much to look forward to. Our earth was dying in the future. Our moon's resources were going to start to dwindle soon, we had an uncertain future in space", Victor said.
"I'm really worried. What are we going to do now?" Paul asked.
"I'm not a Man of War. I will do my best to bring peace. As much as I can.", the Doctor answered.
The story takes place in the Doctor's universe-777 which is the same universe in which JJ Abrams' Star Trek (2009) movies occur. The story of the first Enterprise may have happened differently in the original Star Trek universe.
The Sargasso sea of Space with its derelict spacecraft is taken from Space:1999 (The Cellini episode) "Dragon's Domain". Thanks for that great episode.
Star Trek is (C) by Paramount;
Doctor Who, Amy, Rory, the Daleks are (C) the BBC.
My understanding is that the last great Time War took place towards the end of the Eight Doctor's run in books/audios/comics. Thus the Doctor's crossover with Space:1999 occurred in that time period.
The outfit was a small group of surivors from Stargate Command. Their hq in Cheyenne Mountain- had been taken over and General Hammond was now dead. At first they did not notice that he had been replaced by a Kromagg. Many others had been replaced on the base. The group was now being led by Colonel Sam Carter. They had taken with them a very special alien mirror, one which could show you and even take you to different parallel realities. Many of them had indicated their worlds were being invaded by these Kromaggs or other parallel universe versions of them.
"It was part of the Key to Time. It is needed by the White Guardian. You have another Stargate, you can start to use that one instead." Rose answered.
"Well there is a problem. The Antarctica Stargate was made of a different alien technology. We don't know how to use it. This may not be what had planned.
You are going to be stranded here I think", General Hammond replied.

"Are you Sliders?" Archer asked. "Yes", Logan said.
"Have you travelled with the Doctor?"
"The Doctor? Who?" Logan asked. "Oh the Doctor!" Lassar said "Oh, yes we have. I was one of his companions for quite some time", lying through his teeth.
The segment was located in the Tahwid building.
Jade Wells checked out the latest news and read about what had happened in that very building. They would have to go there even though it would be very dangerous for sure.
After entering, the team separated to try and find the segment in the fastest time possible.
However, Professor Maximillian got struck by a laser. He was hurt but not severely injured.
At the same time, elsewhere, Captain Jack was electrocuted after touching the door. He died shouting from the pain.
Captain Jack told Rose "Let's get out of here, get the others and slide out!"
"Oh no you don't. You give us the segment" Lassar pointed his gun at the captain now.
"No way" Jack moved towards Lassar.
"I warned you – don't come any closer!"
Lassar shot Jack, who fell to the ground, dead.
The Stargate was out there in the open!
Rose asked a passer-by where the place was.. The man replied that this was Sliema, thinking they were tourists.
Professor Arthur said what kind of name is that? Rose saw a newspaper on a newstand, she read it and told the others they were on an island called Malta.
"Hmm.. the stargate must be public knowledge here." Rose commented.
In front of them there was a big sign saying "LAZARUS: THE REGENERATION OF AN AREA, FROM RED TO GREEN".
.. when they landed, they could see they were on Conaxia. The signs littered across the landscape said so, at least. 'Conaxia, the land of plenty'. Only it was quite barren and cold now.
"Hello, Rose Tyler!" Rose and the others heard this female voice quite clearly.
"Welcome to Conaxia! I am the White Guardian!"

Bernard Niederbrach, charged with first-degree battery, was acquitted at his pre-trial hearing in Fulton County May 13 following a mental evaluation which determined he did not appreciate the criminality of his conduct.
Niederbrach was transported after his court hearing to the Department of Human Services in Little Rock for further evaluation and treatment.
The first-degree battery charges stemmed from an incident July 15, 2002, after witnesses observed him threatening to kill his mother, Doris Niederbrach, 61, in front of the Westside Apartments in Salem.
Witnesses observed Niederbrach leaving the area a short time after the altercation. The witnesses went to the lobby to check on Mrs. Niederbrach and found her on the lobby floor with serious injuries to her face after her son struck her. She was flown to St. John's Regional Health Center in Missouri where she underwent reconstructive surgery to her face.
Niederbrach was arrested by authorities at the Fairview Cemetery located six miles south of Salem later that night. Officers reported that Niederbrach was naked and lying beside the grave of a family member.
After he was admitted for a forensic evaluation in February he was diagnosed with a psychotic disorder and borderline intellectual functioning.
During the evaluation Niederbrach told psychologists he had stopped taking his prescribed psychotropic medication several months before the crimes occurred. The report said Niederbrach believed he was not in his right mind and that he had been hearing voices and seeing religious visions prior to committing the crime.
Circuit Judge John Dan Kemp received a letter April 29 from the psychologists who treated Niederbrach. The letter said the patient experienced visual hallucinations. Officers described him as wild and agitated. When authorities tried to subdue him he was making comments about the "rapture" and "666," suggesting that his thinking was delusional, the letter concluded.

The Indigenous Protectors of the World's Most Sacred Places
Around the world, Indigenous groups are working to safeguard and restore besieged sacred sites
Back in the 1990s, there was an intense debate among my Native American friends about whether public education about sacred places would be a good idea. One activist argued forcefully that: "Sacred places don't need a PR campaign. They need ceremony and prayer." But many places, from the San Francisco Peaks and Black Mesa in the Southwest to Bear Butte and Devils Tower in the Black Hills, were being desecrated. Ski resorts. Coal stripmines. New Agers. Rock climbers. Dams. While some battles revealed outright racism, other sacred sites were being destroyed out of ignorance. Though tradition long mandated that "sacred" meant "secret," more people began to agree that limited information about sacred places should be shared in order to nurture understanding, build respect, and inspire allies.
All photos by Christopher McLeod
"We use the word 'sacred.' That's not an Indian word. That comes from Europe,"Onondaga elder Oren Lyons explained to me during an interview for the Standing on Sacred Ground film series. "It comes from your churches. We have our own way to say things. The way we use it, it's a place to be respected, a place to be careful."
Around the planet, indigenous communities still guard their sacred places—mountains, springs, rivers, caves, forests, medicinal plant gardens, burials of beloved ancestors. Everywhere it seems these places are under siege. Each attack is met with a spirited defense because sacred places anchor cultures. They provide meaning. They give life, give information, heal, and offer visions and instructions about how to live, how to adapt, how to be resilient.
Around the planet, indigenous communities still guard their sacred places.
There have been many inspiring victories. At Kakadu in Australia, Aboriginal leaders stopped uranium mining and protected a World Heritage Site. At Devils Tower in Wyoming, the National Park Service consulted with Lakota elders and developed a plan to discourage climbing. Native Hawaiians stopped U.S. Navy bombardment of sacred Kahoʻolawe island and are now restoring it spiritually and ecologically as a cultural refuge. But battles rage on at Mauna Kea, on Oak Flat, in the Amazon.

The Plight of Swaziland's Pangolins
Poachers target little-known mammal to satisfy growing demand in Asia
Pangolins are the most trafficked animals in Southern Africa. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN) calls them "the most traded wild animal" in the world, yet many people have never seen or heard about them.
Photo by David Brossard
These scaly ant eaters, whose tongues can be long as their body, can be found throughout much of southern Africa, including in the mountain wilds of Swaziland. All eight of the world's pangolin species — four of which live in Africa — are listed on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, victims of poaching as demand for pangolin meat and scales has shot up in parts of Asia, particularly in China and Vietnam. Today in Swaziland, where an estimated 2,500 pangolins are poached every year, you are more likely to see a pangolin in the back of a smuggler´s truck on its way to a boat in the Indian Ocean than you are in the wild.
In a country where average public wages are low, some in Swaziland have turned to pangolin hunting to supplement their earnings. "I hate to say it, but increasing food [insecurity] forces rural communities to hunt and capture pangolins for profit," says Richard Mlotshwa, head veterinary manager for the Endangered Animals Rehabilitation taskforce at the state run Swaziland Tourism Authority.
Aiyoba Namaqa, an independent economist who works closely with the Trade Union Congress of Swaziland (which has been banned from operating in the country because the government says it incites workers to challenge the king's authority) agrees, and thinks the situation could get even worse. "Hunger, worsened by El Niño… threatens to leave 20 percent of the country´s rural dwellers grappling for food in 2016," she says. "No wonder some close to forests are hunt pangolins to [sell] and buy food."
A kilogram of pangolin skin can fetch up to $500 on the black market in South Africa´s port cities, where the majority of the pangolins trafficked from Swaziland pass through on their way to Mozambique and finally Asia. "So it is tempting even for rogue Swaziland wildlife wardens to kill or capture these little …more

Six Years Later, Worried Gulf Residents to Hold Online Town Hall on BP Spill Health Impacts
Coastal communities suffering from what some experts call a widespread human heath crisis
In April 2010, BP's Deepwater Horizon oil drilling platform exploded, killing 11 workers before sinking 5,000 feet to the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico.
Oil gushed for 87 days unchecked, creating the single-largest marine oil disaster in US history.
photo by Florida Sea Grant, on Flickr
In response to the disaster, BP used 1.8 million gallons of highly toxic Corexit dispersants in what the oil giant claimed was an effort to keep the oil from reaching shore. Critics accuse BP of sinking the oil with the dispersants as a means of minimizing fines under the Clean Water Act.
"The dispersants contain chemicals that many scientists and toxicologists have warned are dangerous to humans, marine life and wildlife," IPS reported in 2010, adding:
A March 1987 report titled "Organic Solvent Neurotoxicity," by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), states: "The acute neurotoxic effects of organic solvent exposure in workers and laboratory animals are narcosis, anesthesia, central nervous system (CNS) depression, respiratory arrest, unconsciousness, and death.
"Several chemicals and chemical compounds listed in the NIOSH report, such as styrene, toluene and xylene, are now present in the Gulf of Mexico as a result of BP's dispersants mixing with BP's crude oil," IPS reported, a situation which other scientific reports show creates a toxicity 40 times worse than the oil alone.
Joe Yerkes is a Florida fisherman who joined the cleanup effort of the disaster after he was put out of work by the oil in his fishing waters.
Yerkes was exposed to both oil and dispersants while cleaning up oil.
"I have spent the years since the spill happened literally trying to survive," Yerkes told Truthout in 2014. "I've lost five friends now who were also exposed to BP's oil and dispersants, who were unable to seek proper treatment to extract the chemicals from their bodies before the exposure killed them."
"Not long after his exposure, Yerkes became violently ill, started bleeding from his nose and ears, and began vomiting blood. When he couldn't get well, he had his blood tested and found it contained high levels of chemicals, which his physician attributed to …more

We Don't Die, We Multiply
This year's Goldman Environmental Prize winners offer inspiration and hope for the future
The spirit of Berta Cáceres was strong at the 2016 Goldman Environmental Prize celebrations in San Francisco last night. The evening's ceremony opened with a spoken tribute to the indigenous Lenca activist who was assassinated in her home last month — less than a year after she walked up to the stage at the San Francisco Opera House to receive a Goldman for her sustained fight against big dams and other mega-development projects in Honduras.

"Giving our lives in various ways for the protection of the rivers is giving our lives for the wellbeing of humanity and this planet," Cáceres had said during her acceptance speech that evening, as she urged us to wake up and take action to save our beleaguered world.
Had Cáceres been with us last evening, she would have been heartened to see that there are many courageous, inspiring grassroots activists across the world who are indeed awake and alert to the perils facing our planet, who continue to risk their lives to protect the land and communities they hold dear.
She would have met 39-year-old Leng Ouch of Cambodia, who's spent two decades protecting rainforests in one of the most dangerous countries in the world for environmental activists. For years, Leng undertook dangerous undercover investigations to document illegal logging operations. (According to the United Nations, between 1990 and 2010, Cambodia's forest cover dropped from 73 percent to 50 percent largely as a result of illegal logging.)
Leng exposed the deep ties between some of Cambodia's biggest timber barons and the nation's political class, and the rampant land grabs by Chinese and western companies that have robbed poor, rural communities of their land. His investigations have forced the Cambodian government to cancel large land concessions it had bestowed on logging and industrial farming companies, but at the same time have put him and his family at immense personal risk.
Environmental and human rights activists are routinely harassed and threatened in Cambodia. Leng's colleague, Chut Wutty, an internationally known anti-logging activist, was murdered in 2012; weeks after his murder, the body of journalist Hang Sorei Oudom, who reported frequently on illegal logging activities, …more

Why Limits to Growth's Forecasts Are Still Relevant Today
The 1970s study which predicted civilization would collapse some time this century was wrong on resources, but right on pollution
Forty-four years ago, the size of the global economy was $29 trillion in today's prices. In 2014 it was $79.4 trillion. It's certainly been a rocky road at times, but the trend of economic growth has been robust. Only four years over this period have shown a contraction of economic output.
Photo by OCO-2 /JPL-Caltech/NASA
Consequently, one should feel foolish for suggesting that there are not only limits to growth, but that such limits are already affecting the global economy. That's one evaluation of the book Limits to Growth, which was published in 1972 and contained the central, controversial conclusion that the seemingly never-ending increase in population, industrial output, food production, and resource use would rapidly unravel at some point around the middle of the 21st century.
It painted a picture of our over-inflated global industrialized civilization going bang. We are still here and growth continues, so it must be wrong, right?
Perhaps not.
The Limits to Growth study was commissioned by the global thinktank Club of Rome and was based on the output of computer simulations that represented a simple global economy and its interactions with environmental processes. Nowadays you could happily run this model on your phone. In the early 1970s it required a mainframe computer and cutting-edge numerical techniques.
Two studies have evaluated how well the 1972 results of the Limits to Growth model have fared compared to what has actually happened in the intervening period. Their main findings are that it did pretty well actually. That doesn't mean collapse is inevitable, but that despite its simplicity, Limits to Growth captured some important features of our civilization.
It concluded that there are two drivers of a possible collapse. First, non-renewable resources such as fossil fuels should become harder to extract. This makes them more expensive with costs feeding into, among other things, higher food prices and so the global food production …more

Wielding the Law to Safeguard the Land
Goldman Environmental Prize winners use legal strategy, grassroots organizing to defend human health and Indigenous land rights
Legal work isn't usually glamorous. In movies, lawsuits are portrayed as epic, exciting battles — in practice, legal work can be a slow and arduous process. Thankfully, as two of the 2016 Goldman Environmental Prize recipients well know, it can also bring unparalleled results.

Zuzana Caputova has seen such results first hand. For years, she has been fighting an unpermitted landfill just outside of her small town of Pezinok, Slovakia. Built in the 1960s, the landfill sits a mere 500 feet from a residential area. Caputova could smell the landfill from her home, and worried about her children's health. Rates of cancer, respiratory illnesses, and allergies were increasing in her community of just over 20,000 people, and one type of leukemia was being reported at eight times the national average. Then, in 2003, construction began on a second landfill within city limits, despite a 2002 ordinance banning waste dumps within the city. This time, Caputova, a lawyer by training, decided she had to do something to stop it.
"Gradually, I became more acquainted with the information related to the situation in Pezinok around the [landfill] where toxic waste had been dumped," Caputova told me last week, speaking through a translator. "And also information related to the new waste dump that was basically in the process of being approved while very clear violations of the law were happing. So it was this clear injustice in combination with the values that are so important, such as life and health."
These values of life and health weren't abstract concepts for Caputova. "We had incidents of people suffering from cancer both in my family, as well as my close circle of friends," she said. "And I also knew of small children [who were affected], and there was a very high probability that their suffering was linked with the dump."
Noting that, "on a very deep, personal level it was fear of the cancer" that motivated her, Caputova embarked on a long-battle against the new dump using a combination of legal advocacy and on-the-ground activism.
Working closely with a local NGO, VIA IURIS, one component of Caputova's strategy involved challenging the …more

China and the Mekong Delta: Water Savior or Water Tyrant?
Blaming the drought on irregular weather, without acknowledging the impacts of upstream dams and climate change, is an act of intentional misinformation
The Mekong Delta in Southeast Asia is facing its worst drought in recent history, causing food and water shortages for over half a million people living along the Mekong River.

The Chinese government has made headlines amidst the disaster for its decision to release water from upstream dams on the Mekong that lie within China's borders.
Chinese ministry spokesman Lu Kang said in a news briefing last month that China "hopes it can be of help in alleviating the drought downstream." The water will be released until mid-April from the Jinghong dam, with the stated purpose to benefit the lower Mekong delta nations of Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam.
Originating in the remote Tibetan Plateau, the Mekong flows 3,000 miles through China's Yunnan province, northeast Myanmar, and parts of Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia before merging with the South China Sea in southern Vietnam. The river has the world's most productive inland fishery and is a major source of livelihood for millions of people.
The Chinese ministry and media blame El Niño weather for the massive drought that has damaged 160,000 hectares of rice paddies in the Mekong Delta, left 600,000 people facing drinking water shortages, and will result in losses up to $2 million. But Vietnamese officials say while El Nino is partly to blame, the real cause of the water shortage is excessive construction of more than 10 hydropower dams on the upper stream of the river.
Little reporting on the issue has linked the drought to the dams, despite such comments by Vietnamese officials. Mekong River conservationists, on the other hand, have been quick to draw connections. Niwat Roykaew, chair of Chiang Khong Conservation Group, believes the drought is caused by the six major man-made reservoirs on the upstream portion of the Mekong that lie within China's borders.
"The Mekong River has a cycle. Rainwater in the monsoon season refreshes the snowpack and raises water levels," Roykaew said. "Snow melts in the dry season when the water levels are low. We don't need more water from dams in the dry season. We need to sustain the natural circle that feeds the ecosystems and …more
