Bali Vacation 2015
... to my wrist! We spent about an hour in here before heading off to our last destination which was the Tanah Lot Sunset.
Once we arrived at Tanah Lot Pura Luhar Temple, we walked down the edges of the site. There were so many tourists from Asia and the United Arab Emirates. It was packed. We watched the sunset and were straight onto the road back to the hotel. I could not believe the traffic on the way back. It was absolutely insane! I arrived at the hotel and had an easy night. ...
... he will come back for him. He says jade and i cant get on his bike together because the police sit just up the road and he will get a fine, this however doesnt stop him from riding on the footpath to get around the traffic!!! Hahahaha we are there in no time and jump off. He is such a cutie!!! We go and get some stuff and Ian soon finds us, he ended up just walking.......we get donny and his mate some beer and chocolate biscuits and head back.... ...

... failed deception and demanded we pay him the extra money. After consulting the receptionist we realised that we had still paid double of what is expected and therefore continued to refuse. The driver then decided to have a staring out competition, not realising that Anna and I still play such games and are well practiced. His eyes started to twitch and spittle dripped from his lips as he struggled to maintain his concentration. I remained focused and unfazed and whence the drivers ...

... or something they other day a really bad experience.
We have befriended a driver Silviano who we call and picks us up and waits or comes back later to take us to the Riding centre or Rieko shopping etc. Very reasonable prices (eg for 90 minutes we have paid about $15 or and hour just under $10. He never expects a tip but as mentioned before he may make about $5.00 a day so we like to give him a bit extra for waiting and helping so much.
A Little Island Called Bali
... went to go sightsee around Kuta. Wasn't really sure where to go so I let my feet take me down the main road where my hotel was until I got pulled over by who I later figured was a scammer. Bali have people who approach you on the streets with little scratches and if you scratch up a prize, like apparently I did, then they take you by taxi to a hotel to watch a presentation and then you get your prize - yeh sure! I had caught on fairly quickly but the guy was so enthusiastic that ...

Damien (new Airbnb user) and Steve (experienced Airbnb-er and host in Paris) stayed over for a night in my Amsterdam apartment. It was a pleasure to host them here, which at some point turned out to be literally shelter against a lot of snow and super extreme cold wind outside as we faced a tough winter weekend during their city trip to Amsterdam! I met them only shortly in the evening and the morning for a few 'hot drinks' and quick talks together but was quite ok! Good guests, positive recommendation, would be happy to host them again whenever they decide to come back to Amsterdam.

What do we need to do get this player working in Firefox?
What do we need to do get this player working in Firefox?
On Firefox the plug in uses a flash component to manage the audio file. You should install the latest Flash plugin.
The Adobe test site says "You have version 11,5,502,135 installed", and the player works in Firefox 17.0.1 in Windows 7, but not with the same Firefox and Flash Player in Windows XP.
So it doesn't work on FF with Windows XP on your computer; probably you have some additional plugin that is getting conflict somehow...
At the moment I can't test on a Windows XP system, sorry.
That is fine, no big issue here. I test my site with IE and Firefox in XP and Win7 spread across four different machines, and I am beginning to see the subtle differences I encounter in each are not always caused by what might otherwise seem obvious.
Nice Plugin!
Hi pupunzi
I hit on the same problem. Player doesn't play on Windows XP & FF. No big problem for myself in the moment, because I can use XP & IE. But a considerable part of my visitors is still using the combination XP & FF. Since they do not know about the origin of the problem, they do not switsch to IE and simply think the player doesn't work at all.
I have a same problem. But in one pc player work perfectly in XP & FF and in other no.
As I said before, in the case of FF the plugin is using the FLASH fall back to play the mp3 files (it seams that with FF 20 they'll support mp3 too). The problems you are encountering are probably due to the implementation of the FLASH plugin on XP (that is a really old OS).
At the moment I can't solve this issue.

Energy and Global Warming News for December 10: GE wins $1.4 billion turbine order for biggest wind farm so far
GE Wins $1.4 Billion Turbine Order for Biggest Wind Farm So Far
General Electric Co. won a $1.4 billion contract to supply turbines and services for an Oregon wind farm that would be bigger than any completed so far and supply a tenth of Southern California Edison's renewable energy.
GE, whose equipment generates one-third of the world's electricity, will supply 338 of its 2.5-megawatt turbines to Caithness Energy LLC to be installed in 2011 and 2012 and will hold a 10-year service contract, the companies said in a statement. About 400 people will be needed during construction of the wind farm and 35 to run the plant, GE said.
The Shepherd's Flat project, when finished, will supply energy to the U.S. west coast grid, including Southern California Edison, Les Gelber a partner at New York-based Caithness, said in the statement. The two-year construction project, to begin in 2010, entails building about 85 miles of road and 90 miles of power lines that will connect to the grid.
Shepherd's Flat will provide enough energy to power 235,000 average California homes and have the capacity to generate 2 billion kilowatt hours a year, the statement said. GE Energy Financial Services will also invest an undisclosed amount in the project.
During the third quarter, customers of Fairfield, Connecticut-based GE installed wind turbines capable of generating 692 megawatts, or 43 percent of the 1,600 megawatts in wind-power generators added in the period, according to the Washington-based American Wind Energy Association. The GE Energy division is based in Atlanta.
Total U.S. wind power capacity increased 5.4 percent in the third quarter to 31,040 megawatts as project financing resumed and utilities sought to increase supplies of renewable energy to meet state mandates, the association said. Southern California Edison is a unit of Rosemead, California-based Edison International.
Wind energy industry looks to Copenhagen for a mandate
American wind power is blowing strong despite hard economic times. That's the message from Denise Bode, chief executive officer of the American Wind Energy Association and she's sticking to it – despite the dicey economy.
"Last year during an almost depression we added 55 new manufacturing facilities and 35,000 new jobs in the US, which I think makes it one of the bright spots in the economy," she said in an interview last week with the Monitor.
Right now the industry employs more than 85,000 people with many new wind-power factories having taken over previously empty appliance, auto, and steel plants, she says.
Last year the US took over first place globally in terms of the amount of installed wind power, she notes.
No one disputes that 2008 turned out well indeed for US wind power. The economic hammer really didn't hit the wind industry until the fall – about a year ago. Wind power had its financing yanked out from under it just as the rest of the economy did.
Even so, many projects that already had their funding soldiered ahead, and by year's end, a record 8,500 megawatts worth of turbines had been installed.
A large number of projects from the heady go-go days when a flush Wall Street was financing wind farms with abandon were still in the pipeline in 2009 – up through the first half of this year, Ms. Bode acknowledges.
Now, however, the picture is less clear even though there are bright spots.
Growth was strong through the end of the third quarter of 2009 with 5,800 megawatts of capacity built – more than the 5,000 last year.
Still, today there is just 5,000 megawatts of wind power in the near-term development pipeline compared with 8,000 megawatts last year. That slowing is hurting US wind manufacturing plants in places like Iowa, where turbine and blade manufacturing facilities have laid off workers and are sitting on a lot of inventory, analysts say.
The wind power industry got a pick-me-up this summer when stimulus funding began to hit. A measure that allowed an alternate means of financing kicked in – enabling wind-power developers to turn investment tax credits into dollars by getting direct refunds from the federal government.
So far at least $1 billion in such financing has supported the industry this year, Bode says.
"Until the end of 2008, [wind power manufacturers] were making machinery as fast as they could," she says. "Now we're still seeing significant problems in this manufacturing sector. The recovery package threw us a lifeline, but they're still hurting."
But as important is the stimulus aid was, what happens next in Copenhagen and in Congress – and how soon – is critical, she says.
On her wish list this Christmas is a strong statement or agreement coming out of both the climate summit and Capitol Hill committing the US and the rest of the world to shift away from fossil fuels and put in place clear requirements – a mandate – to build renewable energy.
What happens in global climate and global energy politics matters very much, she says. "It makes a huge difference if the world as a community decides to recognize these [carbon emissions] costs "¦ and say we're going to do something about it collectively – and move to cleaner sources of generation."
"Tax credits will trickle down as a lifeline to keep manufacturers alive," she continues. "But what we really need is a strong national commitment from Congress – a hard target" that sets a percentage requirement for how much renewable energy utilities must use.
To do that, climate-energy legislation that provides mandates to build renewable energy generation is needed – not just caps on carbon emissions, she says.
A Renewable Electricity Standard (RES) is featured in both the House version of climate energy legislation passed this spring and the currently stalled Senate version. But neither is as strong as Bode would like.
The House bill's RES starts in 2011 requiring just 4 percent renewable energy rising to 20 percent by 2020. Much of that, however, can met by energy efficiency improvement and "clean coal," she says with barely disguised disdain.
At this point, the Senate bill's standard is even weaker – starting in 2010 at 3 percent and rising to 15 percent with various opt out provisions for governors, she says.
Offshore wind development is a big focus right now for the industry, said Bode, particularly in the New England area. The controversial Cape Wind project appears to be moving ahead as the development group announced this month that National Grid would buy "most likely all of the power," a Cape Wind spokesman told ClimateWire.
But for offshore wind power development to surge, more comprehensive siting studies and policy development is needed at the federal level between the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Department of Energy and Department of Interior.
"New England has to be able to plan for offshore wind power," Bode says.
Transmission lines are another huge potential roadblock. Without new lines to bring in renewable wind power from distant Plains states, wind generation will be stymied, she says.
New technologies like superconducting cable that could be buried underground out of site, might lessen the local "not-in-my-backyard" type resistance toward lines bring wind power from the Dakotas to major US cities, some industry experts say.
Mortality of wind power to birds and bats remains a question mark and is being studied actively by the industry and independent researchers.
Even so, right now some 300,000 megawatts of wind projects are in the queue, at various stages, Bode says. Many of those aren't "real" projects yet, she admits.
But it shows that the industry is poised to get to 20 percent of the nation's energy generation – if the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC and other siting authorities can get transmission issues worked out.
"We're shovel ready, ready to rock and roll, and we can get to 20 percent [of US energy generation] easy, clearly by 2030," she says. "But transmission is going to be an increasing problem over the next five years."
Insurers at core of climate change fallout
With the number of extreme weather events continuing to grow around the world the insurance industry is finding itself at the very center of efforts to avert the worst effects of climate change.
But as drought and demand for water intensify; heat waves become more severe; downpours more violent; and destructive coastal flooding more frequent, some even in the industry say its traditional risk-management tool may not be up to the task.
"Perhaps no industry is as aligned with the interests of a changing climate as the insurance industry is," said Patrick M. Liedtke, managing director of the Geneva Association, an industry body, at a side-event at the U.N. Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen on Wednesday.
"But [tackling climate change] is not something that the industry can do by itself," Liedtke added.
"It requires flanking action from governments, policy makers, regulators, NGOs and a lot of public dialogue. The whole world can't be insured, only parts of it."
"Insurers are on the front lines of climate change," added Andrew Logan,
director of the investor group Ceres' insurance program, in an interview.
"Climate change has the potential to bankrupt the industry, or at the very least make it a lot smaller and a lot less profitable. So insurers have every incentive to push for solutions to climate change, including advocating for strong public policy."
Part of the debate taking place in Copenhagen is centered on addressing what, precisely, it will take to engage private insurers and harness their expertise in the large, complex and unexpected risk associated with increasingly calamitous weather patterns.
And while the issue is undoubtedly a pressing one, particularly for the under-insured societies of the developing world, it is also a cause for some confusion as weather-related coverage largely operates at the intersection of private and state mechanisms.
Plus, there is the fact that, at first blush, investors and policyholders at the household level — in the developed world at least — appear to be little directly affected by weather-related catastrophes.
Their insurance premiums will almost certainly rise, but governments in industrialized countries often largely bear the direct cost of extreme weather events.
Copenhagen at Home: Coal Free Future Begins in Kentucky
As world leaders gather for the Copenhagen Climate Summit, we plan to make our own Copenhagen pledge here at home: It's time to envision a coal-free future. It's time for clean energy independence.
For starters, here in Kentucky we disagree with Commerce Lexington that energy legislation is "the most immediate threat to Kentucky's business climate."
Nothing could be further from the truth for Lexington, Kentucky, and the rest of our nation. Dirty energy led to Lexington's embarrassing selection last year as the worst carbon footprint contributor in the nation. Commerce Lexington has taken a giant carbon step backwards.
In 1776, Thomas Paine challenged our country to embrace the cause of independence over compromise. In a moment of crisis, he declared: "We have it in our power to make the world over again."
Our modern-day Paine, James Hansen at the NASA Goddard Center, has issued a similar clarion call: "Coal is the single greatest threat to civilization and all life on our planet. Our global climate is nearing tipping points."
It's time to envision a coal-free future. It's time for clean energy independence.
Coal mining, which provides 45 percent of our electricity, will not end tomorrow. Every coal miner deserves a right to a sustainable livelihood; given the legacy of our coal miners, we also believe no coal miner should be displaced from his or her job until we develop clean energy alternatives. This means that coalfield residents, like all Americans, deserve a road map for a feasible transition to clean-energy jobs — including a Coal Miner's GI Bill for retraining and a massive reinvestment in sustainable economic development in coalfield communities — before we reach a point of no return.
All coal mining communities know that the first time in 25 years, utilities coal stockpiles have increased during the summer; absentee coal companies are cutting jobs and idling higher-cost mines to keep their stock holders happy in a period of slumping demand; recent U.S. Geological Survey estimates place "peak coal" production as early as 2020.
As grandchildren of black-lung-afflicted coal miners from Kentucky, Illinois, and southwestern Virginia, we honor our families' sacrifices in recognizing, not denying, the true cost of coal. Our grandfathers benefited from a transition to mechanization to improve mine safety. The time has come for a transition to clean-energy jobs.
Coal is not cheap nor clean; coal has been killing us — for over 200 years. Over 104,000 Americans have died in coal-mining accidents; three coal miners die daily from black-lung disease. Millions of acres of forests and farmlands have been strip-mined into oblivion; pioneering communities have been plundered. Half of Americans live within an hour of a toxic coal ash dump.
The Physicians for Social Responsibility recently found that coal "contributes to four of the top five causes of mortality in the U.S. and is responsible for increasing the incidence of major diseases."
The National Academy of Scientists totaled costs of coal at more than $62 billion in "external damages" to our health and lives. A West Virginia University report noted the coal industry "costs the Appalachian region five times more in early deaths than it provides in economic benefits."
In Kentucky, according to a Mountain Association of Community Economic Development study, coal may provide $528 million in state revenue, but costs $643 million in state expenditures.
Nothing has motivated our commitment for clean energy more than the tragedy of mountaintop-removal mining. We have seen the devastation of clear-cutting our nation's great forests and carbon sink of Appalachia and blowing up its oldest mountain range. We have met the casualties of absentee commerce; grieving parents who have lost loved ones to coal slurry-contaminated water; veterans and elderly who endure blasting, fly rock and silica dust; families who have seen their homes washed away in floods caused by erosion; streams poisoned with mining waste; boarded-up communities, strangled by a boom-and-bust single economy.
The plunder of Appalachia must end.
More so, with coal-fired plants contributing over 30 percent of our CO2 emissions, everyone's fate is connected to the coalfields now.
In the end, our fiduciary responsibility to our children demands a new way of generating our electricity in Kentucky and the country. It also affords us a great opportunity for economic and social revitalization
Clean energy independence, not coal, will bring more sustainable jobs.
Wind, solar, hydropower and turbine manufacturing, along with weatherization, retrofitting appliances and homes, could create jobs. The Appalachian Regional Commission found that "energy-efficiency investments could result in an increase of 77,378 net jobs by 2030" in the region.
For us, such a clean energy revolution begins with the proposed Smith # 1 coal-fired plant in eastern Kentucky. Instead of a costly coal-fired dinosaur, a recent study found that a combination of "energy efficiency, weatherization, hydropower and wind power initiatives in the East Kentucky Power Cooperative region would generate more than 8,750 new jobs for Kentucky residents, with a total imp
act of more than $1.7 billon on the region's economy over the next three years."
Ultimately, this clean energy independence would meet the energy needs of EKPC customers and cost less than the proposed coal plant.
So, this is our Copenhagen pledge at home: It's time to imagine a coal-free future.
Obama Seeks Ways to Spur Job Creation From Reducing Emissions
President Barack Obama, during meetings with executives from Duke Energy Corp. and Royal Dutch Shell Plc, sought ways to spur job creation from the type of carbon-dioxide reductions being debated at climate-change talks in Copenhagen.
"His number one concern was, how do we create jobs as we build a bridge to a low-carbon future?" Rogers said of his meeting with Obama, in an interview today on Bloomberg Television.
Obama will go to Copenhagen on Dec. 18, as the U.S. proposes cutting its emissions by about 17 percent from 2005 levels by 2020. Obama yesterday said rebates for consumers that make their homes more energy efficient would help reduce the U.S. unemployment rate.
The president has also found there's an "emerging consensus" for wealthy nations to provide $10 billion a year by 2012 to help developing countries deal with global warming, White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said Dec. 4.
Representatives from 192 nations are meeting in Copenhagen for two weeks to seek agreement on quantifiable goals to reduce global levels of carbon dioxide emissions, which scientists say contribute to climate change.
Among those meeting with the president today was Marvin Odum, president of Shell's U.S. operations. Along with the corporate executives, Obama met with environmental group leaders, including Gene Karpinski, president of the League of Conservation Voters and Carl Pope, president of the Sierra Club.
It was "a very constructive and important conversation with the president, reaffirming the commitment to get a strong international agreement at the end of next week, reaffirming the need for comprehensive clean-energy legislation," said Karpinski.
"The tenor of the conversation was extraordinarily collaborative," said Pope. The idea that businesses and environmental groups are at odds on climate change solutions "simply was not borne out by the conversation today."
Rogers is among executives who have backed creating a cap- and-trade system to limit carbon dioxide emissions and establish a market to trade pollution allowances.
A cap-and-trade program "gives us the ability to smooth the cost impact out on consumers," Rogers said. "It is very important we do this in a way that does not dramatically increase the prices of electricity."
6 Responses to Energy and Global Warming News for December 10: GE wins $1.4 billion turbine order for biggest wind farm so far
Sounds good, about 1657 USD/kWe installed. Prices are clearly falling, especially considering the extremely weak US dollar!
Those roads and transmission lines may add something like 5-15% to that figure. Probably could be completed for under 2 dollars per Watt all-in.
As i recall,GE bought the Enron manufacturing and windfarm business. Looks like a very expensive investment.
Ocean acidification rates pose disaster for marine life, major study shows
The Guardian, December 10 – The world's oceans are becoming acidic at a faster rate than at any time in the last 55m years, threatening disaster for marine life and food supplies across the globe, delegates at the UN climate conference in Copenhagen have been warned. A report by more than 100 of Europe's leading marine scientists, released at the climate talks this morning, states that the seas are absorbing dangerous levels of carbon dioxide as a direct result of human activity.
China emissions could double by 2020: experts
AFP, December 10 – Despite China's pledges to improve energy efficiency, its carbon emissions could double by 2020 as compared with 2005 levels, surpassing limits seen as key to fighting global warming, experts say. (…) "With eight percent growth, emissions will increase by 74 percent," said Emmanuel Guerin, a climate analyst at France's Institute for Sustainable Development and International Relations (IDDRI).
Tropical Forests Affected by Habitat Fragmentation Store Less Biomass and Carbon Dioxide
ScienceDaily, December 10 – Deforestation in tropical rain forests could have an even greater impact on climate change than has previously been thought. The combined biomass of a large number of small forest fragments left over after habitat fragmentation can be up to 40 per cent less than in a continuous natural forest of the same overall size.
10 years to avoid climate change catastrophe, warns Met Office
The Independent, December 10 – Even if emissions peaked in 2020, there would be a 50/50 chance of temperatures rising by more than two degrees and heralding potential global catastrophe, scientists told the Copenhagen climate change conference. (…) The Met Office's Avoid study – carried out with several other British scientific groups – found that limiting the rise to 1.5C was now "virtually impossible" because of all the greenhouse gases already pumped out. (…) Even if emissions were suddenly reduced to nothing, there would still be a rise of 1.3C because of the existing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, Avoid has found.

Finland: Biodiesel Breakthrough or Environmental Nightmare?
IPS, December 9 – As Finnish energy major Neste Oil scales up production of its 'green' diesel NExBTL, environmental activists fear that more land will go under palm oil plantations at the expense of Southeast Asia's threatened rainforests. Palm oil is the main feedstock that goes into the production of NExBTL of which Neste Oil expects to use 50,000 tonnes this year and scale up that figure in subsequent years.
Cooling in 2008 caused by natural causes, NOAA scientists say
Citizen-Times, December 7 – Cooler North American temperatures in 2008 resulted from a strong natural effect, and the overall warming trend that has been observed since 1970 is likely to resume, according to university and NOAA scientists. (…) 'We found that North American coolness resulted from a strong bout of naturally caused cooling in the tropical and northeastern Pacific sea surface temperatures,' said Martin Hoerling, a NOAA meteorologist and co-author.
Carbon taxes deliver more emission reductions: IMF
The Australian, December 5 – The International Monetary Fund has backed carbon taxes over the emissions trading system favoured by the Rudd government, saying they would deliver greater reduction in emissions and more certainty. (…) An IMF report prepared for the Copenhagen conference is sharply critical of the concessions being granted to industries such as coal, electricity and agriculture in the government's recent negotiations with the Liberal Party.
Kerri, it doesn't look so bad to me. For a 1700 – 1900 USD/kWe all in investment (including infrastructure) and 25-35 percent capacity factor, the levelised cost should be in the range of 5 – 8 cents/kWh delivered to your home.
Mystery Volcano Eruption Solves Global Cooling Puzzle
National Geographic, December 9 – Scientists have long blamed the 1815 eruption of an Indonesian volcano, Tambora, for a worldwide cold snap the following year – the so-called year without a summer.
But the entire decade from 1810 to 1819 was about 0.9 degree Fahrenheit (0.5 degree Celsius) cooler than normal – making the dip in temperatures prior to Tambora a mystery.
Now the case appears to be closed: A recent analysis of ice cores from Greenland and Antarctica reveal that in 1809, a volcano somewhere in the tropics erupted, a new study says.
To Joe or someone else that can answer:
Can somebody please explain to me how new capacity for wind power is estimated? For example suppose in year 201x 2000 2.1 MW wind turbines are built. Now does the wind industry simply measure the new capacity for wind power from these turbines at 4.2 GW or do they actually try to legitimately calculate the average expected capacity through computer modeling the average wind speed in the regions in which the turbines were constructed? If the first method is used, isn't that disingenuous, reporting a maximum potential that will never actually be obtained instead of what energy the turbines would actually generate? Thank you for any help.
I emailed this question to the American Wind Energy Association weeks ago, but never received a response.

May 29 News: Christie Wins Teddy Bear, New Jersey Loses Chance To Plan For More Warming-Fueled Superstorms
Governor Chris Christie won President Obama a teddy bear on the Jersey Shore.

UK Head of Climate Impact states on Twitter that he "doesn't buy" dust bowlification:
Richard Betts I don't buy "dust-bowlification" – climate change might even *offset* population-driven water stress rise http://www.mdpi.com/2071-1050/5/5/2129 …
Your link went to a paper saying climate change might be a plus due to CO2 plant fertilization effects???
I thought any increase in plant growth due to CO2 was very small – except for weeds – weeds really like more CO2.
It's entirely possible that climate denial won't fly in the 2016 election. After all, McCain accepted the science as recently as 2008. Christie is only going with today's flow to keep up relationships with donors, since he is obviously already running for president. Hanging with Barry is smart, since the Repubs need independents, and the Pres won't call him on past denial.
It will be interesting to see how they pivot. No doubt Lunz and friends will show them how to parse it with manipulative phrases. The Democrats won't call them on their past positions, since they have too many deniers in their ranks themselves.
Activists need to work to defeat Blue Dogs in primaries, just as the Republicans eliminated moderate opposition with Tea Party challengers, which succeeded in making them all denial, all the time. The time will be ripe for public exposure of corporate control of the political process.
Who will lead this effort? Certainly not the "green" groups, who are flush with corporate cash, including from the oil companies. Let's hope 350 and other grassroots organizations fill the void here. If corporate Democrats are discredited, costing them seats, that's fine. What has Obama done for the climate?
Great to know we have experts leading us on the single most important issue humanity has ever faced.
I wonder how future historians will look back on this period? With total despair and hatred, I expect. How could we have been so stupid?
Tim Yeo: humans may not be to blame for global warming
Humans may not be responsible for global warming, according to Tim Yeo, the MP who oversees government policy on climate change.
Brilliant! Haha. Let's just ignore the 99% consensus.
Back in December of 2012, the methane emergency group said something about runaway warming occurring sometime within a few months if corrective action wasn't accomplished. By my back of the envelope calculations it has been within the realm of a few months. Did something happen that wasn't related to the masses here? Umm, don't drill in the Arctic cause of potential leaks of oil and natural gas, near doubling of the extreme range of the uv index, summer ice melt by 2016, dust bowlification, food scarcity… Well the list of reasons for prescriptive action goes on. Yes even mention of the increased mixing of temperature to depth by Arctic waters that have lost their ice shield.
The reports of Tim Yeo's change of mind re: climate change are incorrect:

Tesla sales beating Mercedes, BMW and Audi
In fact, in the first quarter of this year, more people bought a Tesla Model S than bought any of the similarly priced gasoline-powered cars from the top three German luxury brands, according to data from LMC Automotive. http://money.cnn.com/2013/05/13/autos/tesla-sales-bmw-mercedes-audi/index.html
And this was before the recent Tesla hype…
Tesla expanding Supercharger network for coast-to-coast drives
By the end of this year, owners could drive their Teslas from Los Angeles to New York using the Supercharger stations, Musk said. http://news.cnet.com/8301-11386_3-57586748-76/tesla-expanding-supercharger-network-for-coast-to-coast-drives/
Uhm i guess it is stil l a good time to invest…. someone lend me a mil :)
Musk said that Telsa would have a third-generation $30,000 car in three to five years, and that it would likely be 20 percent smaller than the Model S and at higher scale production than the current $60,000 Model S, which is expected to sell 21,000 this year.
Monbiot had a good piece a few weeks back about how supposedly unbiased Government 'scientific' experts are nowadays appointed for their ideological reliability and loyalty to business and the regime of the day. Dare one say that this appears a classic example. We suffered the same under the John Howard pathocratic regime, the Government CSIRO scientific research organisation being 'corporatised' and made to seek out 'business opportunities'. A head was appointed who was allowed to continue working at the same time for Rio Tinto, the big coal-miner. Can you believe it, but research into climate destabilisation was not 'prioritised' under that regime.The place has progressively crumbled ever since, morale is rock bottom, and the coming Abbott regime will probably finish the job and 'privatise' it. The Right no longer tolerates any opposition, anywhere, from anyone.
Rule by the Right is a 'race to the bottom', intellectually, morally and spiritually, and in the UK and the rest of the Anglosphere, rock bottom is within sight.
Odd isn't it. I seem to recall him also saying he doesn't subscribe to the 2C = danger threshold. Bit worrying.
You can add the Chief Vet in the UK, who has come out with some outrageous sludge, designed to justify the Tories' lust to exterminate badgers, that bovine TB will spread to humans if the badgers are not exterminated. The Right's innate hatred of life, of all 'other' to itself is reaching a really apocalyptic fever pitch. To be a Green in the next few decades will invite vilification from the Rightwing MSM, and, no doubt, Governmental repression by the increasingly deranged and destructive Rightist regimes being thrown up by the combined ecological, economic and geo-political collapse. The fight over badgers in the UK will be a foretaste of that which is to come.

"The last thing you need when you're not going well is to look over and see panic on your manager's face. With Joe, he always looks like he's in control. I mean, from being around him so long, I can tell when he's angry. But panic, that's something you'll never see from him."

Social media training ready for your review
Last summer we worked with a team from Audit Services on a comprehensive review of our institutional social media program; we recapped it here. One of the needs identified in the plan was user training for people charged with administering institutionally branded social media sites. Today we're pleased to be able to allow you to view that training, in a fairly concise and self-paced, PDF-based training module.
We plan to use this approximately 20-slide training module as the basis for additional training (including some in-person instruction) and brief, topic-specific modules. We're really interested in your feedback and thoughts about this first public version. We anticipate that this training or something like it will be a prerequisite for those requesting and/or managing official UTMB social media sites going forward. We want to ensure that the training is useful, accessible and not overly burdensome.
You can access the training here. (PDF, iSpace link)
Please let us know what you think. Send feedback to email@example.com.
Latest tweets no longer at top of your Twitter timeline
Have you noticed a change in your Home timeline on Twitter? Now, top tweets of interest to you (determined by Twitter) appear at top of your timeline followed by real-time tweets of those you follow. Unlike Facebook, you still see all posts of everyone you follow in real time. Maybe a little algorithm is a good thing.

The Best Times to Post on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn & Other Social Media Sites [Infographic]
Reposted from HubSpot Blogs – see full blog post
"So … When's the best time to post content to social media?
Unfortunately, there's no perfect answer. Different businesses may find different days and times work best for them. In fact, timing often depends on the platform you're using, how your target audience interacts with that platform, the region(s) you're targeting, the content of your post (e.g. funny or serious), and your goals (e.g. clicks versus shares).
That being said, there is ample data out there on optimal times to post on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Instagram. In the infographic below, we've pulled together data and research collected by the folks at CoSchedule from a variety of sources, including QuickSprout, SurePayroll, The Huffington Post, Buffer, TrackMaven, Fast Company, and KISSmetrics.
Think of this data as a general guideline, and use it to help you find the optimal posting times for your business."
Social media site registration now here
If you've been following our work, you know registration of new and exitsing UTMB social media sites was one of the recommendations that came out of an internal audit done in August of 2014 (summarized here).
The target was to have this component (registration mechanism for social sites and site owners) in place by Dec. 31, 2015. The form and process to register all UTMB-related social media sites are now ready: it's online, simple and and convenient.
While we're initially focusing on NEW site requests (we'll direct any new queries down this path), users may also add their existing sites. (We're focusing on new sites because many existing sites are already in our inventory, and with a little more development we may be able to save people a bit of additional effort.)
1) To request a new site (or register an existing one not in the inventory): [Visit this form]
2) Log in using your UTMB user name and password
3) Fill out the fields and hit submit
For new sites, approval will be aligned according to the Guidelines for UTMB Health Social Media Accounts, and against the current inventory of UTMB social media accounts.
The audit recommended that the Office of Marketing and Communications "develop formal guidelines and best practices to support social media strategy and policy including, but not limited to, terms of use, legal disclaimers, program ownership, monitoring, site/account approval and administration, and site administrator training."
For more information regarding the social media audit and UTMB's social media strategy and guidelines read this blog. Send comments or ask questions at firstname.lastname@example.com.
New guidelines proposed to govern social media use and publishing at UTMB
A new set of guidelines is being proposed to help manage the use of social media at UTMB. The guidelines seek to help formalize UTMB's social media programs, provide additional oversight, standards and resources including training.
The guidelines—which align with practices in use at similar organizations—build on existing policies, will require site registration, and offer publishers much more detail about setting up and maintaining an effective social presence. The document grew from recommendations made in a social media audit conducted in 2014. The audit called for the Office of Marketing and Communications to "develop formal guidelines and best practices to support social media strategy and policy including, but not limited to, terms of use, legal disclaimers, program ownership, monitoring, site/account approval and administration, and site administrator training."
The document is a draft; your input is welcome and appreciated.

This we "Like": input sought on social media strategy
Last summer, a team from across the institution worked on a comprehensive review of UTMB's social media program, looking for best practices, gaps and opportunities. Based on recommendations from the audit, a risk assessment was completed earlier this year. Additional work is planned through 2016, which will include updates to UTMB's policies, the development of social media training, and new requirements related to site registration.
One audit recommendation involved the development/update of a comprehensive strategy for UTMB's social media program. Using core elements from the Texas Department of Information Resources Social Media Resource Guide, a draft strategy document was created. Your input is welcome; once the formal strategy is developed, the institutional social media policy will be aligned and revised accordingly. (See current policy and disclaimer)
Please review the draft strategy document; provide feedback by commenting on this blog post or emailing email@example.com.

Social media audit paves way for refresh of UTMB's program
Late last year, we worked with a team from Audit Services on a comprehensive review of our institutional social media program, looking for best practices, gaps, opportunities. The report was shared with executive leadership and many key stakeholders, and since then we've been moving ahead with development and implementation. The project shares many similarities and in many places intersects with our transformative "Web Reboot" project.
There were are a few common themes in our audit recommendations, largely centered on formalization of the program, providing additional oversight, creating more standards and policies governing use, and offering more training and additional monitoring. Here's what it said:
1) The Office of Marketing and Communications, working with the Office of Information Security (OIA), should conduct a risk assessment of institutionally branded social media sites. This assessment process should include identifying and evaluating associated risks and developing an action plan to mitigate those risks. (This has been completed.)
2) Using the DIR Social Media Resource Guide core elements as guidance, the Office of Marketing and Communications should develop a formal strategy for UTMB Health's social media program. Once the formal strategy is developed, the social media policy should be aligned and revised accordingly. (You can review a draft of the plan now.
3) The Office of Marketing and Communications should develop formal guidelines and best practices to support social media strategy and policy including, but not limited to, terms of use, legal disclaimers, program ownership, monitoring, site/account approval and administration, and site administrator training. (See current policy and disclaimer)
4) The Office of Marketing and Communications should require that institutionally branded social media sites be formally registered with UTMB Health. (Visit our site inventory tool, part of the Web Reboot project.)
5) The Office of Marketing and Communications should develop a formal strategy for monitoring social media to protect the institutional brand from negative publicity or adverse reputational issues. (We are monitoring, and are working to formalize and enhance the program to better serve our many UTMB customers. This is a major area of focus for us.)
6) The Office of Marketing and Communications should develop targeted training for individuals responsible for administering institutionally branded social media sites that detail proper procedures for managing these sites. Consideration should be given to this training being a prerequisite for site/account approval. (While the training programs are developed, we've been meeting with interested groups or individuals as requested. Contact us below for more information.)

Writing, convergence, social media and audience: how it all ties together
Driving through Louisiana this weekend, I was having a conversation with my teenage son about potential careers and how things change. He's an avid reader so we got on the topic of writing as a profession, and the many challenges and changes the field has undergone. Somewhere in there we talked about how we live at a time where there is more to read, material is easier to access , and more people are writing (present company included, no statement on quality). How all this content gets to audiences is very relevant to what we do as communicators and as readers.
There's an article I found useful that distills a lot of what's been going on with content, authors and the channels that deliver them. It helps explain why Facebook (and other successful aggregators) matter. It's a long read: https://medium.com/@yayitsrob/what-blogging-has-become-fea2e58b83b9

Who uses which social networks in 2015 & projections for 2016
An infographic on Adweek.com by by Carlos Monteiro featuring research from eMarketer.
A few of the findings:
- The majority of Instagram's users are between the ages of 18-34. Instagram has 11.4 million users aged 17 and younger
- Facebook has more users than any other social network
- The Facebook demographic with the most growth is the 65+ crowd
- While the 25-34 age group makes up the majority of Facebook's users, the proportion of persons from this age group joining Facebook as new members has gone down relative to other age groups.
Commenters question the absence of Snaphat, YouTube, LinkedIn and Google+, but there are interesting stats for Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr and Instagram. Despite issues with declining organic reach, Facebook will still have the largest share of users.
Free speech, social media and the workplace
There's a news item that caught our collective interest related to social media and free speech. It's notable for a number of reasons: it's in our market area and in health care, and about a topic that will be getting more official attention at UTMB in the coming year. The news item is about an employee at Memorial Hermann Southeast (in the Scarsdale area) who was fired for a Facebook post about the situation in Ferguson.
The post was unarguably insensitive, but beyond the content, it raises a lot of questions about where the line exists between personal life and work. It's been a blurry divide for years; new initiatives we have planned related to policies and user guidelines at UTMB will hopefully help to steer people in the right direction. The work's being driven by a review of our overall institutional use of social media and the programs/practices that support it. We'll share a lot more about this in the coming weeks and future posts.
Here's the full KHOU story:


text:
MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) -- Federal prosecutors have worked out a deal with an American missionary that may help them find a woman who fled to Nicaragua in a custody dispute with her former lesbian partner. Court documents show prosecutors have decided to drop
criminal charges against Timothy David Miller in exchange for his
testimony in future proceedings in the case.
Miller was charged with helping Lisa Miller, who is no relation to him, flee the United States with her 9-year-old daughter in defiance of a Vermont court order that granted custody to her former partner, Janet Jenkins.
Jenkins and Lisa Miller were joined in a Vermont civil union in 2000. Two years later, Miller gave birth to daughter Isabella, conceived through artificial insemination. The couple split up in 2003, with Miller renouncing homosexuality and becoming a Christian.
Earlier this year, a Mennonite pastor in Nicaragua told AP that "the Nicaraguan brotherhood felt it right and good to help Lisa not only free herself from the so called civil marriage and lesbian lifestyle, but especially to protect her 9-year-old daughter from being abducted and handed over to an active lesbian and a whole-hearted activist."

Thanks, I've merged this (and the patch to sb-simple-streams) into sbcl-0.8.0.26.

Through our teaching students will become flexible and strong in body and mind and better equipped to deal with the various challenges of our stress filled modern lives; essentially embodying the qualities of bamboo itself.
Our Mission
Abiding by yogic ethical principles (yamas & niyamas), we conduct our business, teachings, and classes based on the principles espoused in Patañjali's Yoga Sutras.

Energy Healing
A technique for restoring, circulating and balancing your natural life-force energy. It is a method for improving your sense of well-being on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels.

Hypnosis is perhaps the most effective self-improvement method known producing results far beyond what most people are able to achieve by willpower alone. Our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are all rooted in our subconscious programming. Under hypnosis, the mind is accessible to reprogramming new patterns. The result is that change can take place quickly and automatically. The bonus is deep relaxation and a prolonged state of inner tranquility.
John Mongiovi is one of 21 practitioners in the United States who has been licensed as a Hypnotist by examination of a state medical licensing committee, and is a Certified Member of the National Guild of Hypnotists. He has been in the full time practice of clinical hypnosis for over ten years, and has been an advisor to thousands worldwide.

Republican Gomorrah
Republican Gomorrah
Inside the Movement that Shattered the Party
Nation Books, Hardcover, 9781568583983, 416pp.
Publication Date: September 1, 2009
An intimate, investigative portrait of how the purveyors of the politics of personal crisis and redemption brought down the GOPand why they're still calling the shots for the party
Max Blumenthal is one of the most constantly cited young liberal journalists in America and is regularly featured on the Rachel Maddow Show, Democracy Now!, and Countdown with Keith Olbermann. His articles and video documentaries have appeared in The Daily Beast, The Nation, The Huffington Post, Salon.com, Al Jazeera English, and many other publications. He is a correspondent for The Daily Beast, a research fellow for Media Matters for America, and a Journalism Writing Fellow for The Nation Institute. He lives in Brooklyn, New York.
"With scarcely more than a pith helmet, a notebook, and a tattered copy of Escape from Freedom, Erich Fromm's great study of authoritarian psychology, the dauntless Max Blumenthal set forth years ago to explore the dank forests of American Christianism. Now he has returned to civilization, bringing back a fine collection of shrunken heads and a riveting account of a religio-political subculture that's even weirder than you thought it was. Republican Gomorrah is an irresistable combination of anthropology and psychopathology that exerts the queasy fascination of (let's face it) something very like pornography."
—Hendrik Hertzberg, senior editor, The New Yorker
"A brave and resourceful reporter adept at turning over rocks that public-relations-savvy Christian conservative leaders would prefer remain undisturbed."
—Rick Perlstein, New York Times Book Review
"Max Blumenthal's bold and brash reporting style should not overshadow his keen understanding of the extremist ideology that passes for "conservatism" in America today. A witty writer who thinks for himself, he shows the mainstream media where the story is, not vice versa. And his short videos have transformed the conservative crack-up into must-see TV."
—Joe Conason
In his new book Republican Gomorrah: Inside the Movement that Shattered the Party, investigative reporter Max Blumenthal theorizes that a culture of "personal crisis" has transformed the Grand Old Party — and threatened its future. More at NPR.org

ABINGTON - Police wrote 56 citations for distracted driving over a three-day period last week as part of a statewide impaired driving blitz.
"It was a successful educational effort," Police Chief David Majenski said. "A lot of people learned what not to do."
The Abington Police Department took part in its first dedicated effort to crackdown on people who use text messaging or other electronic devices while driving, Majenski said.
Officers in unmarked vehicles handed out the citations, including to a school van driver.

DALLAS (September 1, 2014) Angel Lizandro Sanches-Zenteno, 17, was jailed Monday, charged with capital murder in the death of his 5-year-old cousin whose body was found in a vacant apartment in Dallas.
Officers found the girl's body several hours after her family reported her missing Sunday.
Kathrine Alejandra Gonzalez was strangled, according to an initial ruling from a medical examiner.
Gonzalez was reported missing by her aunt, who last saw her at around 11:30 a.m. Sunday while the girl was playing outside with her siblings.
They were being watched by her uncle at the apartment complex while their parents worked.
Sanches-Zenteno's apartment was next door to the one where her body was found.

Adobe to Sponsor SQLite
Adobe has joined the SQLite Consortium which promotes the development of the embedded database.
The news was revealed by Adobe's head of Open Source, Dave McAllister in his blog. The move see Adobe join Mozilla and Symbian, who are already members of the consortium.
The members of the SQLite Consortium provide funding to support development of the software. In return, the sponsors receive enterprise support and preferred treatment in case of bugfixes and wishes. The developers try to devote at least 23 man days per year to each sponsor. At the same time, the organization helps to keep the database, which is public domain for the most part, available.
SQLite does not use a database server, but stores records in a file. Adobe uses the embedded database in Adobe Integrated Runtime (AIR). The runtime environment makes it possible to program applications with Web technologies and run them like desktop applications on computers.

Is it possible (and smart) to include all bunch of diffrent drivers to a Windows 7 installer so Windows could theoretically install all needed drivers during the Windows installation? Meaning can I add drivers to my Windows OEM Installer (not a system image that only properly works on the same computer) without having Windows load them on every boot up and just having them available in case Windows gets installed on the hardware the driver is actually used for.
For example, I would add the latest Realtek LAN and Intel LAN driver to the installer. Would that conflict in any way or make the installed system unstable because Windows would load both drivers (no idea if it does that, thats my question) on boot even if one of them isn't actually used? Also would Windows even use these added drivers over compatible default Windows drivers?
My goal is it to make the Image as universal as possible with none or only very little driver installation after the computer got setup. I would need to add a lot of drivers from diffrent chipsets but I'm worried that Windows isn't smart enough to choose the correct drivers and everything gets messed up by having all these drivers on the system.

you are viewing a single comment's thread.
I get the bad feeling it is.However, the statistics are soooooo good for this company, I don't see why it wouldgo down much.The free cash flow is 1/3 of the total capitalization. This company is a terrific moneymaker.It's stock price just hasta go up.
There's a group of stocks -- including at least CFC/Countrywide, NDE/IndyMac, FIC/Fair Isaac, CD/Cendant and of course FAF -- that are being considered as PRIMARILY dependent on the housing cycle or on mortgage transaction volume. In reality, their dependencies vary from "almost none" to "a minority amount."Nevertheless, when the market perceives that long interest rates are threatening to change (in either direction), all these stocks get traded like junk bonds -- and thus punished when rates are supposed to rise.Since I've owned various members of this group at various times over the past 12 years or more, I can testify here that this falsely-analyzed vulnerability to supposed rate changes ALWAYS creates good buying opportunities. A stock like Countrywide trading under a trailing P/E of 7 is totally absurd, and FAF at this price is nearly as much so.No reason to get panicky. This quarter's earnings should create a different mood. For a preview, look at the March operational data that CFC will release in the next couple of business days; solid numbers on transactional volume and total funding will almost guarantee the whole sector will turn around.
