Phottix Mitros: first Chinese flash with full features of a flagship
It was known as the Foton, the "game-changer" and the Zeus, but now Phottix's long-delayed speedlight has finally been announced, named the Mitros. The hotshoe flashgun will come in Nikon, Canon and Sony variants late this year and in early 2013. Was it worth the wait or have other manufacturers, such as Yongnuo, stolen the lead?
The Phottix Mitros really does break new ground, doing "everything you expect a top-of-the-line TTL flash to do", which makes it the first speedlight in China to include TTL, high speed sync (HSS) and wireless functionality all in one unit. Yongnuo's flagship YN-568EX, by contrast, lacks wireless commander mode.
With a guide number of 58, a tilty-swivelly zooming flash head and external power input, the Mitros has most of the features a professional could expect. With TTL we can also expect it to be compatible with Phottix's renowned Odin Wireless TTL Trigger receivers.
The specified five-second recycle time seems rather disappointingly sluggish, though it can be sped up to 2.5 seconds in "Fast Flash Mode". The LCD control panel is also rather uninspiring, more reminiscent of the impenetrable menus of last generation's Canon Speedlites than the easy-to-use big-screened Nikon SB-910 and new Canon 600EX.
Still, all these points depend on the price. If it is really cheap — and the build quality stands the test of time — then people will be willing to sacrifice a nicer display for a third-party offering such as this.
Forward-looking photographers will appreciate the inclusion of a USB port for firmware updates and a 3.5mm sync port, which is more dependable than the old-fashioned Prontor-Compur connector seen on other Chinese flashguns.
Pricing has yet to be announced, but all three models will be available at the end of 2012 or first quarter of 2013. Canon's will probably come first, followed by Nikon and then Sony. Upon release, you will be able to order the Mitros from the Phottix Store or your local distributor.
How much would you pay for a Phottix Mitros? Let us know in the comments below.
If this flash has a built in Rx for the Odin system then I will sell all my Nikon flashes for this system!
David A. Selby
Sadly not: you'll need to buy an Odin receiver for each flash.
what´s "game changing" with this flash? an old fashioned "infrared-wireless-master"-function? isn´t it just a canon 580ex II clone? thats so 2002…
David A. Selby
Ahead of its time for 2002, considering the 580EX II came out in 2007…
The IR-master is indeed surprising – being able to work as Odin/Strato-RX would be a more relevant feature, given the prevalence of mastering popup flashes and the benefits of radio control.
Well, no need to worry about compatibility, thats a point of sale if one wants to use the Odin system. 600EX and most likely the next 430 aren't the ideal choice for usage with 3rd party triggers, and RT dropped the independent mode for some reason…
to be a `game changer` it has to be less than $200 otherwise its game over before even starting for phottix flash
zubpho, would it be a game changer for you if your clients pay you less than $200 for their weddings?
Under $300.00 would be a great buy.
Think of the iPad, made & built in China for USA. Apple slapped their logo on and the world rush into the front doors.
Think of the Hasselblad HD, the owner was Shirro, China. A $40,000 camera set!
David, some questions for you.
1. Comes in Sony as in Sony A99 and NEX-VG900?
2. Does it has Auto Sensor Modes? Most third parties do not have it.
3. Will it be compatible with Pixel King and Yongnuo YN-622c?
4. Has thermal cutoff?
Always wonderful to read your & your staff write-ups.
Let's hope the price will be as low as yongnuo equivalent
For $200 and good build quality I would sell my Nissin (Nikon) Di866 II's (no HSS with the Odin system, otherwise excellent) and go with these, despite that menu looking vastly inferior to the Nissin's simple, bright, colour menu.
At $150 that Mitros menu would start looking fabulous….
One of the things I like about this flash is that it has a feature that is notably absent from my speedlights: a battery level indicator. Why can't all manufacturers do that?
If you have a ATG Elite Gold, Quantum Turbo or HV power pack, it will show the battery level indicator.
This won't hurt your flash like using just 4AA batteries.
Will this be fully compatible with King, Odin and 622?
Anyway of you testing it out with these wireless radio trigger?
$220 at the most, I just want to use a battery pack on it especially with using hss, if its more then that, I'll just load up on batteries and grab the 568ex
We are on 2013 already… Any news about avaiability?
will this flash come out this year or it is just a dream?
for like a whole year they were talking about it and people keep talking about it ……
or maybe phottix would like to see peoples reaction on it? come on there are several flash gun out there …

China to Cap Electricity Growth at 8 Percent Through 2015
China, the world's largest emitter of carbon dioxide, is seeking to cap the growth of electricity consumption at 8 percent a year from 2010 to 2015, and will limit the installation of new coal-fired power plants while boosting the share that comes from wind, solar and nuclear.
In an outline of energy-development goals under the country's 12th five-year plan, China plans to reduce energy consumption by 16 percent annually and carbon emissions by 17 percent, as measured per unit of gross domestic product, from 2010 to 2015, according to a statement today on the website of China's State Council, China's cabinet.
The plan, which anticipates a near doubling of consumer power consumption per capita, calls for China to get 11.4 percent of its electricity from non-fossil sources by 2015, up from 8.6 percent in 2010, while reducing coal's share of generating capacity from 68 percent in 2010 to less than 65 percent.
China had a total of 39 gigawatts of renewable-energy capacity in 2012, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance.
Under the plan, power generated by solar plants will increase by 89.5 percent a year over the same period, wind capacity will increase 26.4 percent, nuclear power by 29.9 percent, natural gas by 16.2 percent and coal by 7.8 percent.

Stream Team: Mets and Padres Worth a Look
The Stream Team took a small break for All-Star week, but we're refreshed and ready for the stretch run, starting with Monday MVP action at FanDuel. Even with the change in FanDuel scoring, I think you may be best going with our Ace picks each day — it's become very hard to find great, cheap options each day. That doesn't mean you have to break the bank for an ace, though; aside from Doc on Monday, our Ace picks should save you upwards of $1,000 in cap room from the elite rank of starters while not sacrificing much, if any, production.
Ace: Roy Halladay, PHI at CHC ($9,100). I guess we could pimp our boy Ryan Vogelsong again, though he's had control problems over his last two starts (and he has a tough matchup against Chad Billingsley). Halladay seems a near-lock for the five-point win.
*Middle Man: Chris Capuano, NYM vs. FLA ($5,100). Capuano has had a really nice run since June 1, bring his ERA down over a full point by posting quality starts in six of his last seven games. He struck out 38 batters while only walking 13 guys in that seven game stretch, and allowed no home runs in five of those games. That stinginess with regards to the long ball is normal for Capuano at home, which is where he plays the Marlins on Monday.
Wild Card: Dontrelle Willis, CIN at PIT ($4,700). I highly suggest taking one of the two gentlemen above, but if you feel you have to get under $5,000 with your pitching selection, Willis is the best of a bad bunch.
Roto Stream Team: 1. Chris Capuano (vs. FLA), 2. Mark Buehrle (at KC), 3. Jason Marquis (at HOU), 4. James McDonald (vs. CIN), 5. Randy Wolf (at ARI).
*Ace: Tim Stauffer, SD at FLA ($6,900). I bought heavily on this guy in the pre-season, and he's cruised along to seven straight starts with two earned runs or less on the scoreboard in each. His normally excellent control left him in his last start, so I'll be watching this one closely to see if that was an aberration or a sign of deterioration.
Middle Man: Rubby de la Rosa, LAD at SF ($5,500). It may be tough expecting a win here, as the Dodgers are as bad on the road as the Giants are good at home. De la Rosa himself hasn't earned a win in his last five starts. However, he has pitched solidly over his last three, including a six-inning one-hitter that included eight Ks in his last start before the break.
Wild Card: Danny Duffy, KC vs. CWS ($3,900). Duff-man will be back with the Royals for a Tuesday start, and he had been on a nice little run before the break, posting only one walk in four consecutive outings. That run included a weird start in which he lasted only 3.2 innings but struck out nine while walking one. If he keeps the ball in the park here, he should have a nice line.
Roto Stream Team: 1. Rubby de la Rosa (at SF), 2. Danny Duffy (vs. CWS), 3. Mike Leake (at PIT), 4. Tyler Chatwood (vs. TEX), 5. Brett Cecil (vs. SEA).
*Ace: Aaron Harang, SD at FLA ($7,200). That is not a typo. Harang has been stellar over his last seven starts, allowing a total of seven earned runs and bringing his ERA to 3.19 through 93 innings. Tack on a 7-2 record and you may start to mistake Harang for a fantasy ace. He has a lot of success in Petco but is still worthwhile on the road, where he has a 3.81 ERA and 1.31 WHIP. In his last road start, he no-hit the Dodgers for six innings in a no decision.
Middle Man: R.A. Dickey, NYM vs. STL ($5,700). Dickey usually pitches well enough to give his teams (both real and fantasy) the opportunity to get a win. He hasn't been lit up for more than four runs since May 14, and even those four-run affairs have been limited to two. The owner of a much better WHIP at home, Dickey should have another solid start against the Cardinals.
Wild Card: Juan Nicasio, COL vs. ATL ($4,000). I'm a firm believer in this youngster and his nearly 3.0 K:BB ratio. He's coming off a seven-inning shutout of the Brewers at home which included just four hits and no walks. The Braves got to him in Atlanta in the start prior to that, and he'll be looking for revenge at home. Before that Atlanta start? Another shutout, eight innings against the Royals. I guess the altitude doesn't bother him.
Roto Stream Team: 1. Aaron Harang (at FLA), 2. Vance Worley (at CHC), 3. Juan Nicasio (vs. ATL), 4. Jason Vargas (at TOR), 5. R.A. Dickey (vs. STL).
*Ace: Ian Kennedy, ARI vs. MIL ($7,500). Several aces should be on the mound Thursday, but Kennedy seems like the most cost-effective of the group. He'll face a Brewers team that's pretty bad on the road, and Kennedy's K:BB ratio (over 3.0) should lead to another great start for him here. At 10-3 this year and with a 1.05 WHIP at home, Kennedy's got my pick.
Middle Man: Jon Niese, NYM vs. STL ($6,600). I would recommend one of the aces starting, but if you feel you have to save a little money with your hurler, you could opt for Niese. He bounced back strong from an early exit on July 10, limiting the Phillies to one run through seven innings in a win. At 9-7 with a 3.73 ERA, Niese can be plenty helpful in regular fantasy leagues as well.
Wild Card: Dustin Moseley, SD at FLA ($6,100). If you have to squeeze even more value out of your starter, you may want to take Moseley, even on the road. If it was me, I'd just go with an ace and be done with it. The top scorers on Thursday will likely be using one of them, so I'd try my best to pick the right one and avoid the bargain pitchers today.
Roto Stream Team: 1. Jon Niese (vs. STL), 2. Doug Fister (at TOR), 3. Javier Vazquez (vs. SD), 4. Dustin Moseley (at FLA), 5. Carl Pavano (vs. DET).

Screaming Piha
The Screaming Piha (Lipaugus vociferans) is a species of bird in the Cotingidae family. It is found in humid forests in the Amazon and tropical parts of the Mata Atlântica in South America. As it is widespread and generally fairly common, it is considered to be of least concern by BirdLife International.
While the plumage of both sexes is dull grey (wings and tail often somewhat browner), its voice is extraordinary, exceptionally loud and among the most commonly heard sounds in the Amazon. The sound is frequently used in movies, and also can be heard in the background of the popular game Angry Birds Rio.
The Cofan people of Ecuador call it the Pwe-pwe Yoh, which is a reference to its voice. Similarly, among the Ecuadorian Secoyas, the bird is known as the Kwow-kwee-yo. Males often gather in loose leks, where they sing to attract females.

I had iAds integrated in my iOS app, my app customers are primarily based out of Middle-East. As it turns out that iAds doesn't support Middle-East countries, so i'm not getting any revenue through iAds. I was figuring out whats other alternative for Ads network for iOS in Middle-East, I came across Admob and LeadBolt are the best ones. Could you please tell me whether Admob is supported in Middle-East countries?
Thanks in advance.

April 18, 2013
WALNUT, Calif. -- The No. 24 Minnesota men's outdoor track and field team kicked off competition early this week with a pair of Gopher multi-eventers in competition at the Mt. SAC Relays/California Invite.
Jack Szmanda finished third in the decathlon at the Mt. SAC Relays on Thursday after improving from eighth midway through the competition. Minnesota's all-time school record holder in the decathlon, Szmanda finished the competition with7,317 points including a first-place finish in the pole vault that matched the senior's season-high leap of 5.20 meters. Additionally, Szmanda finished third in the 1,500-meter run with a time of 4:39.20 and fourth in the javelin throw with a toss of 49.79 meters. The senior also posted a throw of 35.31 meters to finish eighth in the discus and finished the 110-meter hurdles with a time of 15.45 seconds.
Szmanda's first day of competition was highlighted by a third-place finish in the shot put with a distance of 13.38 meters. Szmanda also finished third in his section and fifth overall in the 400-meter dash with a time of 50.28 and fifth in his section in the 100-meters with a time of 11.31 seconds. The senior also tied for seventh-place finish in the high jump (1.92 meters) and posted a 10th-place finish in the long jump (6.52 meters).
Meanwhile at the California Invite, Kenny Schofield finished 10th with a total of 6,371 points. Schofield finished fifth or better in each of the four events he competed in on Wednesday, including a second-place finish in the 100-meter dash with a time of 11.25 seconds. Schofield also posted a third-place finish in the long jump (6.70 meters), a fourth-place finish in the shot put (12.81 meters) and tied for fifth in the high jump (1.89 meters). Schofield also finished third in his section and fifth overall in the 400-meter dash with a time of 52.20 seconds.
Schofield added a throw of 44.00 meters in the javelin on Thursday to finish eighth and posted a ninth-place finish in both the pole vault with a leap of 4.15 meters and the 1,500-meter run with a time of 4:59.18. The Minnesota multi-eventer also added a throw of 22.23 meters in the discus and time of 16.22 seconds in the 110-meter hurdles.

American Red Cross Diversity Blood DriveWHEN: Monday, June 13th, 10:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.
WHERE: Nestor Hall West Lounge
A special Diversity Blood Drive is being hosted at Columbus State in the Nestor Hall Lounge by the American Red Cross. The focus of this particular drive is recruiting more donors from ethnic minority groups. According to the American Red Cross…
"Every blood donation is important and maintaining a diverse blood supply is a priority to the American Red Cross. African-American, Asian-American and Latin-American blood donors may have the unique ability to help patients with special needs. For example, sickle cell disease affects more than 70,000 people in the United States, most of them African American. Many of these patients need blood transfusions every few weeks to help manage the disease. Transfusions from blood donors of the same ethnic background can help these patients avoid complications. Blood types A & B are often in high demand and are the first to run out during a shortage. These blood type can be found in a high percentage of African-American, Asian-American and Latin-American populations. Every day the Red Cross must collect about 15,000 blood donations to serve patients at approximately 2,600 hospitals nationwide. With college/university attendance down in the summer, and many regular donors vacationing, summer is an especially difficult time to collect enough blood donations to meet the need of patients."

Here are the declared legal proceedings from QCOM's 10-K. I've shown just enough to indicate the complainant in each instance. The "possible but not probable" comment does not apply to the ParkerVision lawsuit individually - that guidance is in respect of QCOM's potential liability from these eleven actions as a group.
1. Tessera, Inc. v. QUALCOMM Incorporated
2. MicroUnity Systems Engineering, Inc. v. QUALCOMM Incorporated et al
3. MOSAID Technologies Incorporated v. Dell, Inc. et al
4. ParkerVision, Inc. v. QUALCOMM Incorporated
5. Icera Complaint to the European Commission
6. Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) Complaint
7. Japan Fair Trade Commission (JFTC) Complaint
8. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Formal Order of Private Investigation and Department of Justice (DOJ) Investigation
9. Unspecified - a pending lawsuit in which QCOM is named as co-defendant
10. Unspecified - a pending lawsuit in which QCOM is named as co-defendant
11. Unspecified - a pending lawsuit in which QCOM is named as co-defendant
"We will vigorously defend ourselves in the foregoing actions. However, litigation and investigations are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, we cannot predict the outcome of these matters. We have not recorded any accrual at September 30, 2012 for contingent losses associated with these matters based on our belief that losses, while possible, are not probable."
The guidance continues -
"We are engaged in numerous other legal actions not described above arising in the ordinary course of our business and, while there can be no assurance, we believe that the ultimate outcome of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows."
In my opinion the fact that the PRKR action is specifically named reflects only the possibility that patent infringement actions could result in higher production costs through additional license fees - whereas a lawsuit by a visitor to a QCOM facility who has slipped on a wet floor does not have the potential of resulting in a permanent increase in expense.
I do agree that there is significance in the fact that QCOM has mentioned the PRKR action in the 10-K for the twelve months ended September 30 2012 - whereas there was no reference to it in the 10-K for the twelve months ended September 30 2011. But I'm not at all sure that there is a favourable interpretation here. PRKR filed its initial complaint on July 20 2011. The fact that QCOM's initial reaction was that it simply didn't warrant a mention in the subsequent 10-K is not encouraging.
I suspect there may be some here who will claim that QCOM's decision not to mention the PRKR action in the initial 10-K was part of an elaborate bluff on their part. I would disagree with that interpretation - unless such a claim is supported by evidence that QCOM has adopted the same ploy with any of the numerous other patent infringement actions against them.
Companies such as QCOM don't use their SEC filings to play games. As a general rule, if they see the slightest possibility of an adverse development they warn the shareholders about it at the first opportunity. To do otherwise is to invite class actions.
For me, QCOM's initial assessment was that there is no realistic possibility the PRKR action could be successful. A year later, they see the chance of the action being successful as being high enough to meet the "better to be on the safe side" criterion.
The prkr pumpers will latch onto anything - right Todd?
What a bunch of #$%$. The statement in the 10-K says what it says. It doesn't mean that PV is going to win the lawsuit. It doesn't mean that PV is going to lose the lawsuit. It just means that of the scores of lawsuits that an $18 billion per year company is a party to (including many patent lawsuits) Q identified the PV lawsuit as one of 4 lawsuits where there it is "reasonably possible" that there could be a verdict awarding "substantial damages." This is the considered opinion of Q after consultation with its in-house and outside counsel, and after a substantial amount of discovery has been completed, including the submission of expert reports.
The shorts who are pooh-poohing this are whistling past the graveyard. The inclusion of this lawsuit in the 10-K is significant. However, for longs it is not a slam dunk- it just means that Q understands that this lawsuit is a dogfight in which it could get whacked for a lot of money. It doesn't mean that Q is not going to fight this suit like crazy.
Now if only the judge would get this Markman ruling out.......
Sentiment: Strong Buy
"reasonably possible" is your wording not QCOM's. QCOM stated that an unfavorable result while possible was not probable. "While possible" means greater than a 0% probability so 1% or more. "not probable" means less than a 50% probability. So QCOM in reality is giving a range of 1%-49% of PRKR prevailing and being awarded significant damages and I suspect that QCOM, on advice of its lawyers believes the probability of an unfavorable outcome is far less tha 49%.
QCOM's legally stated view in the 10-K is certainly very different from that of many of the bulls on this board who do think it is a slam dunk for PRKR, that QCOM has no chance and it is only a matter of how high the damages will be. The professional shorts who most likely have had their own experts vet the case may not be as dumb as some of you think

Cytogenetic and morphological studies have begun to reexamine the taxonomy of the red howlers Alouatta seniculus which live throughout the northern and western Amazon basin, in the Guianas, and from northern Colombia and Venezuela, south to Bolivia. We briefly review the current state of knowledge of the taxonomy and distributions of red howlers, in particular, that of the Guianan subspecies. Recently, two names have been applied to populations from this region, Simia straminea Humboldt, 1812, and Alouatta macconnelli Elliot, 1910. Allen (1911, 1916) unquestioningly accepted the validity of A. macconnelli from the Guyana coast, but most subsequent taxonomic revisions (Cruz Lima, 1945; Cabrera, 1957; Husson, 1978) have synonymized it with S. straminea. Tate (1939) and Hill (1962) listed Alouatta seniculus macconnelli, but both doubted its validity. Nevertheless, recent cytogenetic and morphological studies, without due consideration of the taxonomic history of the two scientific names, have led to the resurrection of A. macconnelli, as distinct from S. straminea. The use of the name Alouatta macconnelli has evidently arisen from a cursory reading of Hill (1962) or an uncritical interpretation of his provisional subspecific distribution map or both. There are also contradictory interpretations of a reciprocal translocation as indicating that Simia straminea and Alouatta macconnelli are separate species (Bonvicino et al., 1995) or the same subspecies (Sampaio et al., 1996). Doubts about the type locality of Simia straminea Humboldt, 1812, as given by Hill (1962), led us to research its original description and to conclude that Simia straminea is a synonym of Alouatta caraya and therefore unavailable for Alouatta seniculus. Before A. macconnelli is accepted as the next available name for the Guianan red howlers, however, we advocate a thorough review of Guianan, Venezuelan, and Colombian red howler subspeciation, with due consideration for the taxonomic status of Mycetes auratus and Mycetes laniger Gray, 1845. We note that Alouatta guariba (Humboldt, 1812) is a senior synonym of Alouatta fusca (Saint-Hilaire, 1812).

About the Movie
Why Stop Now? tells the bittersweet story of Eli Smith (Eisenberg), a piano prodigy, and his mother Penny (Leo) who despite her cheerful, loving disposition, struggles with drug addiction. On the day of his audition for a prestigious music program, Eli's mother plans to enter rehab, but a glitch in the system forces them to enlist the help of an unlikely ally, her drug dealer Sprinkles (Morgan). Circumstances conspire that turn them into a comical yet determined band of collaborators who are forced to deal with their internal demons over the course of the day.

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: As "Why Stop Now?" gathers momentum, the increasingly uneasy sensation it produces is not unlike that of being in the back seat of a speeding car whose drunken driver refuses to give up the wheel.
Rotten: Feels trapped in the limbo between comedy and drama where many indies gamely venture, but from which few emerge with any resonance.
Rotten: An unbearable 90-minute trip with a trio of loud, needy egotists-one whose updated scenario never feels like it needs the extra 75 minutes.
Rotten: Why Stop Now refuses to keep faith with its characters, to carry them as far as they can go without tying them up in a neat bow of redemption.

It has Jesse Eisenberg….what more do you need??? :)
Highly Recommended
All three actors are at the top of their games. Really entertaining movie.
Great Movie!
This movie was outstanding! I wonder how it would have panned out if it were a drama instead...

Our Mission: Restoring Ecosystems to Reverse Global Warming
We now have six highly successful conferences behind us on the road to restoring ecosystems to reverse global warming. Videos and slideshows available on each conference's program page.
Check them out!

- Bristol Community College in February 2015, Carbon Farming for Food, Health, Prosperity and Planet!
- Tufts University in November 2014, Restoring Ecosystems to Reverse Global Warming
Our Work: Education and Activism
Biodiversity for a Livable Climate brings you information about decades of scientific research and the practical experience of land managers around the world. We work to remedy the information gap in mainstream climate advocacy which tells us that virtually the only practical effective action we can take is to reduce fossil fuel emissions. There is another way. One foundational approach is Holistic Management as applied to billions of acres of grasslands worldwide, where soils have the potential to store enough carbon to reduce atmospheric carbon concentrations significantly. In addition, we are fully supportive of reforestation, ocean regeneration and other restorative endeavors, all of which return essential health, climate stability and diversity to the biosphere.
Primarily based in the physical sciences, climate scientists generally do not yet recognize what life scientists and ecologists have long known: the power of life has molded almost every aspect of the physical earth, including the climate. Wise human management of the biosphere can undo the eco-mess we have created, and regenerate a planet that we can live on.
While reducing emissions is of critical importance, there is far more that we can and must do, especially considering that emissions reductions efforts have to date been insufficient and even if emissions were to go to zero today, we would still be faced with catastrophic effects of climate change.
According to the 2013 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report:
A large fraction of anthropogenic climate change resulting from CO2 emissions is irreversible on a multi-century to millennial time scale, except in the case of a large net removal of CO2 from the atmosphere over a sustained period . . . (p. 26, emphasis added)
We have lost far more carbon to the atmosphere from soil disruption since the beginning of agriculture than we have added by burning gas, coal and oil. We must do something else: Through eco-restoration and regenerative agriculture, we can take gigatons of carbon out of the atmosphere and put it back into the ground.
The American Dust Bowl, 1930s. Tons of carbon are moving from formerly healthy soils to the atmosphere. Since the beginning of agriculture, worldwide soil degradation from farming, deforestation and other human activities has caused greenhouse gas pollution that rivals that currently in the atmosphere.
We know now that the safest and most effective approach to reducing atmospheric carbon is to capture it with millions of species of green plants, animals, insects, fungi and micro-organisms, which bury it deep in soils in carbon-rich molecules that are stable for centuries or longer. In the process, because complex organic carbon molecules retain many times their weight in water, we restore vibrant life to billions of acres of parched, desertified areas that were once healthy forests or grasslands.
There's more good news: with biodiversity and eco-restoration we can unite people, organizations and governments, even those who have been fighting and maneuvering for advantage for decades. Everyone will agree that a magnificent stretch of wooded hills or green fields of grasses full of life are preferable to those rendered parched, cracked, barren and lifeless due to human misuse. Therefore, the mission of Biodiversity for a Livable Climate is to promote seeing the world in wholes to re-establish biodiversity and the water cycle, store carbon in the soils, maximize photosynthetic solar energy capture, eliminate bare soils and reverse global warming by applying regenerative approaches to the land worldwide.
Site in the Chihuahan Desert in Mexico before and after restoration with Holistic Planned Grazing. There is roughly six times more water captured in the ground by plants (bottom photo) than there was in the artificial pond (top photo).
Above: Depaving in an urban environment (Somerville, Massachusetts) to recreate healthy soils. Carbon dioxide, along with water, is the basic and primary building block of plants. Now that the asphalt is gone, all the carbon you see as leaves and flowers is carbon that's no longer polluting the atmosphere and causing a greenhouse effect.

There's A Moon Out Today
During a noon hour walk today, SR sports scribe Greg Lee and I spotted the Mother of All Plumber's Cracks hanging out on a step with a girlfriend at the City Beach seawall. Greg spotted it first. "Hey," he said, "you got some spackle." Before I could say, "hunh," I spotted what he meant. The guy would have done any plumber proud. He was at least at half staff. I could give you a better description. But it might cause me to go into dry heaves. His girlfriend was working on her own partial moon. Altogether, not something you want to see before lunch. Greg was fighting the urge to dry heave. (AP file photo)

Miliband's 'True Face of British Business' Has Become Banker
The industrialist praised by Labour Party leader Ed Miliband as "the true face of British business" in a speech that said the U.K. needs "not financial engineering, but real engineering" has just become a banker.
John Rose, former chief executive officer of Rolls-Royce Holdings Plc, was appointed last week as deputy chairman of Rothschild Group, which ranks sixth in Europe this year in providing advice on mergers and acquisitions, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Miliband told his party's annual conference today in Liverpool, northwest England, that businesses could be divided between "producers," which "do the right thing," and "predators," such as those involved in some company takeovers.
"Are you on the side of the wealth creators or the asset strippers? The producers or the predators?" Miliband asked. "Producers train, invest, invent, sell; things Britain does brilliantly, but not enough. Predators are just interested in the fast buck, taking what they can out of the business."
Rose is "a great British business leader," Miliband said, "creating wealth and keeping jobs in this country" when he was at Rolls-Royce, in contrast to Fred Goodwin, the former chief executive officer of Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc, which had to be bailed out by the previous Labour government.
"This was not an anti-banker speech," Miliband's office said in a statement after the leader's address. "It was an anti-irresponsibility speech."

SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) -- One of the women charged in the death of another woman who was beaten outside of an Orange County nightclub is using a cellphone video to argue she did not kick her.
The Orange County Register reported Thursday (http://bit.ly/1jGsTOy) that Vanesa Zavala used the video that shows her kicking a man standing nearby to argue that she did not kick victim Annie Kim Pham.
Prosecutors say Zavala and Candace Brito kicked Pham in the head while she was on the ground during a fight. Deputy District Attorney Troy Pino said Zavala's story was a lie used to explain the video.
Investigators say Pham died of blunt trauma to the head after being taken off life support several days after the attack that occurred in January in downtown Santa Ana.

The Statue of Liberty Has Her Own Patent
Liberty Enlightening the World. That's the title of patent #USD11023 granted to one Auguste Bartholdi on February 18, 1879. You might know it better as the Statue of Liberty.
Liberty Enlightening the World. That's the title of patent #USD11023 granted to one Auguste Bartholdi on February 18, 1879. You might know it better as the Statue of Liberty.
It took a very long time for the Statue of Liberty to find a home on Liberty Island. In fact, for several years, her creators showed off pieces of her body in NYC and Philadelphia in an effort to drum up funds to finance the statue's completion. The picture above is from New York City's Madison Square Park, where her …
The last time France saw the Statue of Liberty, the copper sculpture was in pieces, being shipped to New York for permanent installation. But this summer in Paris, Vietnamese artist Danh Vo has installed his recreation of the iconic monument in 30 copper fragments, each an exact replica of the original—right down to…
They may not be as adorable as a baby sloth, but these nine examples of new tech invading old come from our friends at Oobject.
We were excited to hear that the Statue of Liberty had been outfitted with some rad webcams in honor of her 125th birthday. Well Big Mother's eyes in the sky just went live and holy hell are they cool.
Soon you'll be able to see the world from Lady Liberty's vantage without ever visiting New York. The Statue of Liberty is getting a sweet 125th birthday gift: five webcams that will broadcast sweeping panoramas 24 hours a day.
This Brooklyn apartment has everything you desire. Privacy, space and a breath-taking panoramic view that will knock your socks off.
Thanks to some photoshop wizardry, we have a picture of what the Statue of Liberty looked like in her younger years. Which is to say, very penny like! But no matter what color her dress is, she's still a beaut.
In an admirable effort to celebrate the 125th anniversary of the Staute of Liberty, the U.S. Post Office has issued a commemorative first-class stamp! Of the wrong Statue of Liberty.
I know that this must have happened more than once, but for the love of Thor, what a spectacular shot this is. The Lady of the Harbor standing still against the forces of nature.

Chicken Bacon Kabobs
Total Time
Prep 40 mins
Cook 20 mins
Chicken Bacon Kabobs is from a card from my grocery store. These are really good.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1⁄2 cup soy sauce
- 1⁄4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 4 tablespoons honey
- 1 fresh garlic clove, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
- 2 tablespoons scallions, chopped
- 1⁄2 cup canola oil
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cut into chunks
- 1⁄2 lb bacon, cut in half
- 2 cups fresh pineapple, cut in chunks
- 1 (8 ounce) package mushrooms, cleaned
- 1 green pepper, cut in 2 inch pieces
- 1 red pepper, cut in 2 inch pieces
- wooden skewer, soaked in water
- In a large bowl, mix the soy sauce, vinegar, honey, garlic, ginger, scallions and canola oil. Take 1/4 cup of marinade (to be used for basting) and set aside.
- Place chicken into the marinade and stir to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator at least 1 hour. Wrap the chicken chunks with bacon, and thread onto skewers so that the bacon is secured. Alternate chicken with mushrooms, peppers and pineapple chunks.
- Lightly oil the grill grate. Arrange skewers on the heated grill. Cook 15 to 20 minutes, brushing occasionally with remaining soy sauce mixture, until bacon is crisp and chicken juices run clear.

Wow!! This was wonderful!! So healthy and fresh!! Even my children loved it!!
Excellent. I made this as directed and it was wonderful. Loved the marinade and the fresh pineapple. I'll probably microwave the bacon a little next time because it didn't get as done as I would have liked, but didn't take away from the flavor it added to the chicken. I did add some red onion to the mixture because I love grilled onion. Thanks so much for sharing this keeper.
Delicious! I used only a pinch of ginger (personal taste preference) and omitted the pineapple (I know it's very popular but we've just never been keen on it in savoury dishes) but otherwise made these exactly to the recipe. The blend of flavours and the vegetables and the bacon-wrapped chicken were all just SO yummy! I marinated the chicken for several hours and then panfried the kabobs in a non-stick pan. Alas, no BBQ, but I'm sure they would taste even better BBQd. We loved these. I nearly scaled the recipe back for two, then decided that I could freeze what we weren't going to be eating on the night, so we have several more serves to be enjoyed on other nights! Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders. Thank you so much for sharing yet another super recipe, Jess!

Any way to fix the pinterest button not lining up like the rest. The link shows how it looks on my website.
Any way to fix the pinterest button not lining up like the rest. The link shows how it looks on my website.
I still have this issue. Anyone knows how to fix it??
You still should start your own thread but we'll skip that for now. ;)
What's the link to your site? Alignment issues usually can be sorted out with a little CSS. The Firebug extensin or Chrome's Inspect element can help you find what needs adjustment.
Link to my site is http://presta-ecommerce.com. Let me know how to fix this.
Can you disable the W3TC CSS minification? Looks like the
margin-top: 30px lines it up correctly but the class name looks dynamically generated.
Looking at the not minify'ed version might help narrow it down.
Yup. Disabled it now, but it still looks the same.
Any clue?
Unfortunately where I am at now blocks things like the Socialize buttons so troubleshooting is a little difficult for me.
If the CSS class is static then you can apply that
margin-top: 30px to just that class and that should fix it. You can add that CSS via a child theme (a bit overkill), a plugin, or if your theme supports it via some custom CSS.
If the CSS class has a dynamic element (such as some ID) then the CSS can still be added via another plugin
add_action('wp_head', 'your_function'); as long as you can predict the CSS class correctly in your function.
Or the plugin author can release an update that makes the adjustment for you. ;)
It's been pointed out to me that this Firebug tutorial may also help figure out the alignment problem. ;)
Hi, thanks for your elaborate answer. However, I can't find a way of solving this because all buttons have same class "socialize-button". How do I determine if the button is pinterest and give it another styling?
What I'm doing is using the nth-child selector. http://css-tricks.com/how-nth-child-works/
It's not ideal, but it's gotten me through it given I expose the same social links on every page. I'm seeing that on my site as well so it's probably a universal problem.
Hi, I'm facing problem with pinterest button too!
But this is weirder. Here's my screenshot http://prntscr.com/25egvi
Strange because it's suddenly happened, 3 weeks ago still okay, but now it's not.
Please help. This is my blog Natural Health Beauty
I am having the same problem! Does anyone have a fix for this?
Yep, I have the same issue. Looks like it needs an update from the developer.
I've updated the button to use the latest code.

"Hard Luck to High Tech" Top 5 Page for this destination Manchester by gilescorey
Manchester Travel Guide: 67 reviews and 107 photos
I have family nearby, and always fly in and out of the snazzy airport. Manchester seems as though it could use a little polish, but the millyard & adjacent neighborhoods look like a tale from Dickens...not unlike Society Hill in Philadelphia. And, if you want a cosmopolitan experience in New Hampshire, Manchester is a best bet. Some lovely shops line downtown, as well as some stellar restaurants.
The "Queen City" began as a small farming village at the beginning of the 18th Century. However, an ambitious industrialist named Samuel Blodget envisioned Derryfield(as it was then named) as an industrial giant. The promise was in the crashing Amoskeag falls, and the goal was not only to harness these for power, but to build canals allowing shipping of goods between points North, and Massachusetts Bay Colony/Boston to the South. Blodget succeeded, and the Amoskeag Mills were born. Derryfield became "Manchester", named for that British capital of the Industrial revolution, and tens of thousands immigrated to the New Hampshire city for work - the lion's share, French Canadiens. This early immigration is reflected in the Manchester of today. Few cities in New England can boast of the diversity Manchester holds. Furthermore, Manchester is still the second French-speaking city in the U.S.(after New Orleans).
The rise of the South towards the turn of the 20th century, meant the fall of Manchester. The Amoskeag Corporation declared bankruptcy, and prominent Manchester citizens banded together trying in vain to rejuvenate the city.
In the grand scope of events, Manchester has only found considerable new footing since the early-mid 1990's. High tech landed in the region, taking advantage of New Hampshire's friendly tax base, and the airport became an important alternative to Boston's clogged Logan. Money from both has streamed into the city and urban renewal has taken firm footing. The crown of Manchester's tech-achievements is DEKA. Dean Kamen's corporation settled in the once-decrepit Millyard. Mr. Kamen has nearly single-handedly brought new attention to the city, and his Segway transporter, based in Manchester, brings modern prestige to a city rich in history

Thanks so much for a nice assortment of suggestions. We're headed up to NH soon and hope to check out all your hints. Good job!
Nice job. Nice tips!
Are you from Manchester? I am from Lowell, MA. Nice page!
thanks for the tips!
It would be interesting to compare this to the first Manchester here in England, to see how much they are alike!
Manchester is my hometown! I like your page. I sometimes miss living there...
I was born & raised in Lowell, Massachusetts, & spent many hours of my days loitering in the Millyard. It?s absolutely splendid to see a page of Manchester on VT.
Great tips! I grew up in Amherst and lived in Manchester & surrounds for a number of years. Also worked in a photo lab in an old mill building on Bedford St. in 1980's. Velcro USA has been in Manch. for years too. Lots of industry there.

PAX attendance nears 70,000, third event hinted at
PAX Prime saw 67,600 attendees through its doors in Seattle last weekend, and it sounds as though Mike and Jerry aren't done yet.
BigDownload reported the attendance figure for the just-ended show, confirming a record for the expo.
The first PAX East in Boston last March brought in 52,290 attendees. It'll move to a much larger venue in the city next year.
Flush with the show's ongoing success, Penny Arcade bosses Mike Krahulik and Jerry Holkins have no hinted that they may be ready to move abroad with a new event.
Speaking to Gama at the show, the pair said that a third PAX event might happen and that it "would likely take place in a different country; preferably somewhere the duo want to visit."
PAX was used for 2K's Duke Nukem Forever reveal this year. Check out our interview with Gearbox's Randy Pitchford on that here.

Amarillo Globe-News
The Amarillo Dillas had their series finale against the Laredo Broncos rained out Tuesday at the Amarillo National Bank Dilla Villa, and Dillas general manager Mark Lee said the game will not be made up.
The Dillas are in the middle of what now becomes a 19-game homestand, although it wasn't originally planned that way.
The Dillas lost a little bit of ground in the United League Baseball race Tuesday. Edinburg beat Coastal Bend, 3-0, to take a 11/2 game lead over the second-place Dillas (41-31).
The Dillas start a four-game series with San Angelo at 7:05 p.m. today at the Dilla Villa. After that, they'll host four games against Coastal Bend in a series that originally was scheduled to be played at Robstown but was moved to Amarillo. Sunday will be a doubleheader with single games on Monday and Tuesday.
Admission to all four Coastal Bend games is free.

Color of your Hair
Okay, I put this under Fashion because I think it's deffinately a fashion statement when dealing with your hair color. Of course, not everyone dyes their hair or is making a statement but some of you may have changed you hair as you grew up. For me, I used to have really long blonde hair that everyone was totally jealous of but I hated it. I didn't know what to do with it and I'd more often than not, tie into a ponny tail and leave it.
So during my high school years, I had it cut shorter and shorter until it was really short and I styled it so I had spikes all over the top. Everyone thought it looked a lot better because it matched the shape of my face.
Now, every five weeks, I get it dyed a really dark red. Funny thing is that I'll have to get my hair bleached if I want to dye it a lighter color now.
So I want to know what color your hair is and what (if any) style is it normally in???
I know but that same thing is happenin with my hair it was like so blode and now its getting browner by the day but i just got hilights in it so it looks alot darker but about that style thing i dont know but whatever suits u!? :D :roll:
well, I don't just mean spiking your hair...I'm talking about generally putting your hair up or just doing whatever you want to it. I was afriad to do anything to my hair when it was long and blonde and now I've got some options. It is whatever you want it to be.
i just brush my hair every mornig and let it go but if your 1 of those people that have 'Style' lol then maybe curling it just to let u kow red is my fav color of hair!
^^ really? That's great! Oh, I fell in love with that color and I started to dye it like every shade of red so far. I'm getting closer to red/black though. Someday, I'll dye it a really bright blood red but for now, I love darker colors.
Yeah watch out my mom was a beautition and she told me 1 time that if u keep on dieing your hair and putting perms and stuff in it it will look like a giant fuzz ball thier is 1 of my bf's that kept on doing that and her hair feels like cats hair NO LIE!!!!! :shock:
^^^ yes, that's true. But I don't perm it and that's a really bad thing anyways. I take very good care of my hair and only have the dye done every five weeks which gives it time to get grow out and become sorta set. But I know what your saying. Hair has to be treated really well or you'll damage it.
Yay for brown hair. I am thinking about putting highlights in it. But not higlights like at the hair salon, like going to Hot Topic and getting the do it yourself highlights. Maybe purple or red.... :shock:
If you want to do that, get your hair bleached first where you want the colours to go, that way it'll stay in your hair longer. At the moment, my hair is black, cept for the ends and my fringe which are red.
^Just one question. Why does the bleach make the highlights stay in longer? Just curious, because my friend put in pink highlights a week ago and now they are blondish :lol:

Dr. William Harris: A 61/2-year-old boy was brought to the emergency ward of the Massachusetts General Hospital because of pain in his right hip. He had been sitting on his bed, leaning forward to tie his shoe, when he slipped off the edge of the bed. He landed on his right knee with his right thigh in a position of adduction and flexion, and was unable to rise from the floor.
Examination of his hip showed that the right thigh was adducted, internally rotated, and flexed, and the femoral head could be felt in the right buttock. There was full motion and motor power throughout the right lower extremity below the hip. Sensation and circulation were intact. X-ray examination of the hip showed complete dislocation of the right hip ( Fig 1).
This was not the first episode of dislocation of the right hip that this young boy had experienced.

EU Orders France to Recoup 440 Million Euros From SNCM Ferries
Societe Nationale Maritime Corse Mediterranee, a money-losing French ferry operator partly owned by Veolia Environnement SA, must repay an extra 220 million euros ($296 million) in illegal subsidies, regulators said.
France must recoup the money -- a mix of capital increase, social payments and a "negative price" paid when it was privatized in 2006 -- because the aid harmed competition, the European Commission said. This adds to the regulators' order in May that SNCM should repay grants since July 2007 to operate ferry routes between Corsica and Marseille during peak periods.
The sum brings total aid SNCM must repay to 440 million euros, Antoine Colombani, a commission spokesman, said by e-mail.
"The government contests the European Commission decisions on the SNCM," French ministers including Finance Minister Pierre Moscovici said in a joint statement today. "The government doesn't share its point of view and has initiated several procedural challenges."
The dispute is holding up Veolia's accord with French state-owned bank Caisse des Depots et Consignations to withdraw from their transport unit Transdev, which owns the ferry operator. Europe's largest water company is seeking to extricate itself from the public transit business as part of Chief Executive Officer Antoine Frerot's turnaround plan to lower debt and sell assets.
The European Union checks whether large government subsidies give a company an unfair advantage over others and can take a state to court to demand it recoup any illegal aid.
'Significant Strain'
The ferry operator "could be placed in receivership" at the request of management or a creditor because of "significant strain" on cash, Veolia warned in an earnings statement on Nov. 7.
Veolia spokeswoman Sandrine Guendoul said she couldn't provide immediate comment.
SNCM has been plagued by labor strife in the past. Veolia took an impairment loss of 77.8 million euros on non-current assets of SNCM in 2011 and 35 million euros in 2012, according to its latest annual report. The ferry operator had a net loss of 27.5 million euros last year and a 68.9 million-euro loss the previous year.

WOW !! What can I say, the place is amazing.Everything you want and more. My kids had a fantastic time (8 and 11). The pools, the lazy river, rock jumping and kids club kept them pretty busy. Lifeguards at every pool activity made the kids feel safe. They make an effort with all the kids, they know all the names after one day. Girls at the kids club were fantastic !! AOM Thank you !! We stayed in block 8 which was close to the pool and beach, would highly recommend it for a family. The room was fantastic beautiful, we had fresh fruit everyday, our rooms checked twice a day, and you don't have to worry about bottled water, there is plenty of it !! The resort itself is little out of the way which makes it really peacefully and quiet. It was 15 min walk to Karon on the beach, very pleasant walk. Staff are gracious, kind, sweet and over willing to accommodate you ( big thanks to SAK) Can't really fault it !! We were all happy and we would stay there again any time. One more thing BREAKFAST !! TO DIE FOR !!! you will have a hard time deciding what to eat, you must try the banana roti amazing !!!
