The synergy and convergence of research on grid computing and peer-to-peer (P2P) computing have materialized in the meeting of the two research communities: parallel systems and distributed systems. The main common objective is to harness Internet-connected resources (e.g., CPU, memory, network bandwidth, data sources) at very large scale. In this framework, the Globe Conference tries to consolidate the bidirectional bridge between grid and P2P systems and large-scale heterogeneous distributed database systems. Today, the grid and P2P systems hold a more and more important position in the landscape of the research in large-scale distributed systems, and the applications which require an effective management of voluminous, distributed and heterogeneous data. This importance comes out of characteristics offered by these systems: autonomy and dynamicity of peers, decentralized control for scaling, and transparent sharing large-scale distributed resources. The second edition of the International Conference on Data Management in Grid and P2P Systems was held during September 1-2, 2009 in Linz, Austria. The main objective of this conference was to present the latest results in research and applications, to identify new issues, and to shape future directions.

For the life of me I cannot find a way to make the search option on the events page search for all events instead of only the future events. Any guidance is very much appreciated.
While on the topic, what is the format to enter on the date range fields. No matter what I enter on 'between' and 'and' fields the list shows all date ranges.
Many thanks in advance.

For some reason, the footer is ending up on the right hand side when it should be at the bottom. I've checked all my divs and they appear to be right.
I've validated it and there is one error having to do with the script line in the header which shouldn't affect the placement of the footer.
It looks fine in IE. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've been skiing The Beav for the last two years on an Epic Pass...It's not the biggest, it doesn't have the most snow, it doesn't have any bowls, but for the intermediate-advanced rider who can stand an extra 40 minutes on I-70 West, it's always worth the trip. The grooming is phenomenal, and there are enough steep, open blues and blacks to please the speed demon. There's really no ski patrol either, so charge!
The best thing about The Beav, however, is that it seems to have a more mature group of riders than Vail, Keystone, and especially Breck...the prices seem to keep the maniacal boarders away, and the lack of a bar scene probably helps too. I recommend staying in Summit County, head up to The Beav in the morn, park in the Elk lot (it's free), bring your own lunch, although a monstrous slice of pizza can be had for $4, and they lowered the draft beer prices this year. And at the end of the day, head back to Summit County for the Apres scene, or a few night runs at Keystone.
The only drawback is when it's snowing, not only do you have to go through the Eisenhower Tunnel, or Hoosier Pass, but you have to deal with Vail Pass as well...fortunately, we have good snow removal crews out here, but there are way too many inexperienced drivers to make the crossing safe. I guess you can take the CME also, and let them worry about it.
Overall, my favorite mountain in CO...and I've been to almost all of them...definitely worth the trip.

Recall renews questions on battling salmonella
Published: Thursday, August 19, 2010 at 9:04 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, August 19, 2010 at 9:04 a.m.
A national salmonella outbreak that could have sickened thousands has led to the recall of 380 million eggs and renewed questions about whether it's feasible to keep the microbe - the most common bacterial source of food-borne illness in the nation - out of the henhouse.
How to check for recalled eggs
Eggs affected by the recall are sold under the following brands: Albertson, Boomsma's, Dutch Farms, Farm Fresh, Hillandale, Kemps, Lucerne, Lund, Mountain Dairy, Ralph's, Shoreland, Sunshine and Trafficanda.
The eggs are in cartons from plant numbers 1026, 1413 and 1946, with dates ranging from 136 to 225. Dates and codes can be found stamped on the end of the egg carton. The plant number begins with P, then the number. The date follows the plant number. For example: P-1946 223.
Source: Food and Drug Administration
The answer from experiences in Denmark and Sweden seems to be a qualified yes. It can be done, but at what cost?
The eggs being recalled - the amount was expanded Wednesday from 228 million - are from Wright County Egg, a Galt, Iowa, company whose five facilities produce 2.3 million dozen eggs a week, says spokeswoman Hinda Mitchell. The recalled eggs total almost 32 million dozen. In 2009 the United States produced nearly 6.5 billion dozen eggs, says the United Egg Producers.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has reported that hundreds of people have been sickened in the outbreak, which appears to have started in May. But CDC epidemiologist Christopher Braden said Wednesday there may be thousands of illnesses, though no reported deaths. California health officials say at least 266 people in that state were sickened.
"We're speculating they could have had a highly infected flock or the product could have been mishandled, but we don't really know," says Mindy Brashears, a professor of food safety at Texas Tech University in Lubbock.
The Food and Drug Administration has new egg safety rules that went into effect July 9 for producers with more than 50,000 hens. Smaller producers have two more years to prepare.
The rules set new procedures for testing for salmonella enteritidis and requirements for pasteurization if tests are positive. Rodent and pest control measures must be in place in poultry houses, which must be disinfected before new hens are added.
This is old hat to egg producers in Sweden and Denmark, which virtually eliminated salmonella from all poultry beginning in the 1970s. They tested flocks and if any came up positive, they would be slaughtered, says Lars Plym Forshell, with Sweden's National Food Administration. "In the early days, farmers got 100 percent compensation" from the government for flocks they lost. Today, with only two or three flocks a year needing to be destroyed, it's covered by insurance.
American experts say such draconian programs don't make sense. "Salmonella is widely distributed in the environment, so even if you destroy an entire flock, there's still a chance that it can be recontaminated from the environment," says Brashears.
Forshell counters that his country has very strict building codes for hen houses to keep out insects and rodents that typically carry the disease.
It's a question of whether to keep the disease out or deal with it later via testing and pasteurization. Europe in general roots out the problem, the United States tends to look for post-harvest solutions, says Mogens Madsen, a food safety expert with the Technical University of Denmark.

The Cedar Cultural Center repeats as Best World Music Venue
Photo By Erik Hess
The Cedar Cultural Center has long been a somewhat unsung musical jewel of the West Bank of Minneapolis. But lately, the venue has been receiving some well-deserved praise for consistently hosting compelling, eclectic performances by genre-bending bands and musicians that run the gamut from indie-rock to Afro-pop.
And now, for the second consecutive year, the Cedar has been awarded the 'Best World Music Venue' in a readers' choice poll on About.com. The Cedar, which is a 501c3 non-profit organization staffed by friendly, music-loving volunteers, is in its 24th season of putting on unique, intimate shows on the West Bank by performers from all over the world, and this recognition is well-earned and should be celebrated by not only the Cedar, but by music fans throughout Minnesota.

About.com had these kind words to say about the Cedar: "The Cedar Cultural Center, the outstanding Minneapolis performing arts venue which is the keystone of the world music scene in the Upper Midwest, took home the glory in the Best World Music Venue category for the second year running."
The Cedar beat out such respected and venerable World Music venues like the CSPS Hall in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and the Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago.
The Cedar's ongoing commitment to bringing international musicians to Minneapolis continues throughout 2013, with their annual Global Roots Festival set for September, as well as their wildly popular African Summer music series, which continually features exclusive local performances by some of the biggest stars in world music.
The 2013 African Summer music series launches a bit early this year, with an upcoming performance from Fatoumata Diawara on April 12. The coming months feature scheduled performances from Femi Kuti & the Positive Force on June 26, the return of Amadou & Mariam on June 28 (after their uplifting show last summer), Vieux Farka Toure on July 9, and Fendika on July 10. More shows might be added as the summer draws near, so check the Cedar's website for additional concert announcements.
So, head on over to the Cedar to catch an upcoming performance and find out why they are not only the Best World Music Venue in the country, but one of the best places to see a show, period.

Editor's Note
Federal IT is difficult enough in the best of circumstances. Do we really need to make it harder by viewing agencies and industry as zero-sum adversaries?
That question has been on my mind in recent weeks and reinforced by several stories. The General Services Administration's launch of 18F raised concerns that the new tech shop would compete with private firms for agency business without having to navigate the same thicket of acquisition rules. The HealthCare.gov signup deadline brought more arguments over how to allocate blame for the botched rollout. And the Defense Department's debut of milCloud -- combined with the slow release of standards that private firms must meet to compete at DOD's higher Impact Levels -- has sparked new grumbling that the Defense Information Systems Agency is seeking market share at the expense of a level playing field.
FCW recently took a close look at the milCloud story, which details just how distrustful key stakeholders have become. (Another feature, soon to run on FCW.com, explores agencies' relationships with Congress now that government shutdowns seem off the table -- but that's a whole other flavor of distrust and dysfunction.) Although some of that distrust boils down to old-fashioned posturing by all parties, it's clear that fundamental questions and disconnects exist.
What are the inherently governmental functions when it comes to IT? Beyond that baseline, what can agencies realistically build themselves -- and what should they? Must bang for the taxpayer buck always be the deciding factor? And how do the government's stated goals of encouraging small business and growing the economy factor into the equation?
In Washington, the answers shouted loudest tend to simplify for politics' sake. On the topic of HealthCare.gov, for example, one columnist declared, "What some are taking as a triumph of governmental competence was actually an emergency rescue by private-sector volunteers after a laughable failure of government to construct and run its own system." As if the original debacle was not also built by private contractors and the government was not involved in recruiting and running the subsequent rescue effort.
FCW readers, of course, know better. Industry and government are in this together. And while more competition is great, a bit more collaboration and honest conversation would go a long way as well.

The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.
Shipping Weight:?1.18 lbs (0.54 kg)
Shipping Weight
The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

Although the book is entitled, Diagnostic Electrocardiography and Vectorcardiography, the actual vectorcardiographic loop is not included in the text; instead, a hand-drawn schematic loop is shown in the vectorcardiographic section of each chapter. The selection of the electrocardiographic illustrations is satisfactory, but the quality of some of the reproduced tracings is so poor that they are extremely difficult to interpret. Obviously, some illustrations are reproduced xeroxgraphic copies of ECG tracings.
As the title indicates, only diagnostic aspects of electrocardiography are discussed; however, the conciseness of the content leads to over-simplification of some chapters, particularly the chapter dealing with cardiac arrhythmias.

For the Officeless, A Place to Call Home; Not Just a Copy Shop Any Longer, Kinko's Pushes Its Computer Services
By LAURIE J. FLYNN
Published: July 6, 1998
The lettering on the door sums up the business model: ''Your branch office/ Open 24 hours.'' Kinko's, once known simply as the leading chain of printing and copy shops, has recast itself for the work-obsessed digital age.
Where there once were only copy machines, the 902 Kinko's stores in this country and abroad now feature a uniform mixture of fax machines, ultra-fast color printers and networks of computers equipped with popular software programs and high-speed Internet connections.
Many business people, while traveling, have come to regard Kinko's as their office away from home, stopping in to check their E-mail or otherwise make quick use of a computer. And laptop stations let business travelers plug their notebook computers into any of several different printers for making copies of presentations while on the road.
At the same time, many a home-office worker has come to rely on Kinko's as the well-appointed office outside the house. At last count, there were nearly 40 million Americans working out of their homes with the help of electronic conveniences like cell phones, fax machines and hand-held organizers. And on any given day, tens of thousands of them stop by a Kinko's store, whether to make temporary use of a high-resolution color printer or to find something else the home office does not have: other people.
As millions more people join the work-at-home trend each year, Kinko's appears to be doing what many people envisioned cybercafes would do -- offer an escape from the isolation that this abundance of modern technology seems to have created. For social mixing, there's nothing quite like trying to bring a PC to heel in a public place.
''You get frustrated, so you end up meeting people,'' said Peter Goggin, a Web site designer with Epicenter Communications Inc., in Sausalito, Calif., who regularly stops by Kinko's to make color prints. ''Sometimes you share tips.''
It is precisely the kind of pay-by-the-hour collaboration that gladdens the heart of Kinko's chairman, Paul Orfalea, who founded the company as a campus photocopying business in 1970. Since then, he has nurtured the privately held outfit into a chain with revenues now estimated at $1 billion. And if all goes as planned, he may finally take Kinko's public next year.
If that happens it might set the record for the longest time from start-up to initial public offering for an Internet-related company. But Kinko's founder has always taken the long view.
''Even as a kid I knew that someday I'd be running a big company,'' Mr. Orfalea, 50, said recently at his office in Ventura, Calif. But he said the company had been waiting for a major reorganization to take hold before embarking on a public offering. ''Like in a marriage, Wall Street wants consistency and fidelity, and we're waiting until we can provide that.''
Thanks to an expansion into computer services that Mr. Orfalea began in the late 1980's, as the number of home workers and digital road warriors increases every year, so do Kinko's revenues. The company is the leader in the $7 billion copy-services market, despite competitors that include Sir Speedy, Alpha Graphics and Kwik Copy, along with in-store copy departments at office supply warehouses such as Office Max's Copy Max, Staples and Office Depot.
And the company's computing services side, now accounting for about a third of its sales, is growing even faster -- with no direct competition on a national scale. While other copy chains sell computer time, and some even offer E-mail and Internet access, none appear to match Kinko's when it comes to the number of branches.
And Kinko's, which charges $12 an hour for computer use, is hoping to increase its share of industry revenue by getting people to spend more time -- and hence, more money -- at its stores. Besides adding equipment, the company is talking to Starbucks about opening up coffee shops adjacent to some Kinko's stores, and is looking at other services to get people to come more often and stay longer, such as package shipping and banking.
Glendale Federal Bank, for example, has already opened sales offices in six Southern California Kinko's, and Citibank has said it will open similar mini-branches in Kinko's stores throughout the nation later this year. Mr. Orfalea is also considering opening mini-Kinko's in airports and hotel lobbies.
Another growing in-store business for Kinko's is video conferencing, which the company now offers in 140 stores throughout the country.
William Campbell, a buyer for Applebee's International, a restaurant chain based in Shawnee Mission, Kan., relies on the local Kinko's video conferencing site there to conduct screening interviews with job candidates, and estimates that each $150 to $300 video session saves more than $1,000 in travel expenses.
Applebee's applicants simply have to show up at their local Kinko's, where they speak to a video camera while watching the interviewer on a television screen. If a local Kinko's does not have video conferencing equipment, Kinko's will make arrangements with another conferencing center in the same town, possibly one run by Sprint or another phone company.

Beginning in the '90s, Karim Rashid famously claimed that we touch, on average, some 600 objects a day.

Here are the facts: Smartphones are ubiquitous, the compact camera market is fading and GoPro's got the action market locked up. So you'd think the last thing an upstart design firm would do is create a new type of compact camera and attempt to launch it themselves. But Seoul-based BOUD

Forbes magazine says Larry Fitzgerald among most overpaid players in NFL
So you think Cardinals receiver Larry Fitzgerald is among the most overpaid NFL players?
Forbes: NFL team values rankings | Forbes: NFL's most overpaid, underpaid players
Neither do we. But …
In an article at Forbes.com, Fitzgerald is listed among the Top 10 most overpaid.
As silly as the story's conclusion seems – they take a statistical analysis from Pro-Football-Reference.com and extrapolate from there – they did attempt to explain it.
Here are a couple of excerpts:
"Even the league's lowest-paid players make around $400,000 per year, and nearly 260 NFLers make $5 million or more per season on average. But some players who are paid millions don't always justify the exorbitant pay with their on-field production, at least relative to their peers.
"To find the NFL's most overpaid players, we relied on Approximate Value (AV), a statistic that Pro-Football-Reference.com has been developing since 2008. The statistic is an attempt to quantify each player's on-field contributions to his team's success, and it ultimately provides a means of comparing players across positions.
"We adjusted each player's approximate value … then grossed that per-game value up to a full 16-game season."
To make an already-too-long story shorter, we'll cut to the chase:
The article concludes the NFL's most overpaid player is Minnesota Vikings fullback Jerome Felton. Huh? Whuh? Who?
Yeah. Cue the hornets' nest of controversy.
Or not.
The list includes Vikings tight end John Carlson, Cleveland Browns lineman Paul Kruger, a Tennessee Titans tight end named Craig Stevens, Buffalo Bills defensive end Mario Williams and Tampa Bay Buccaneers punter Michael Koenen.
Fitzgerald, the only wide receiver on the Top 10 list, was ranked seventh.
Who else made the list? You don't care.
And what player – you know, among the 100-plus (apparently more reasonably paid) other NFL receivers – would you want on your team ahead of Fitzgerald?
We'll take No. 11 in red. At any price.
Here's Forbes' overpaid and underpaid NFL player lists, beginning with the overpaid:

Capitol Critters is an animated television series about the lives of mice, rats, and roaches who reside in the basement and walls of the White House in Washington, D.C. The series was produced by Steven Bochco Productions and Hanna-Barbera Productions in association with 20th Century Fox Television for ABC, which aired seven out of the show's 13 episodes from January 31, 1992 to March 14, 1992. Cartoon Network later aired all 13 episodes in 1995. The series was part of a spate of attempts by major networks to develop prime time animated shows to compete with the success of Fox's The Simpsons, alongside CBS's Fish Police and Family Dog. The latter two and Capitol Critters proved unsuccessful and were quickly cancelled. Wikipedia

Top 10: Luxury Watches
Page 2 of 3
Number 7
Patek Philippe Celestial
Rather than speculate whether the odd behavior of those around you is the result of a full moon, consult your Patek Phillipe Celestial. Yes, this self-winding model most certainly qualifies as a "grand" complication. Its face features a sky chart showing moon phases, lunar orbit, meridian passage time and star progression relative to Sirius (the star, you do realize). This 25-meter water resistant marvel features 45 jewels, 301 parts and a 48-hour maximum power reserve. Oh yes, and it happens to tell time, if that's all you require of it.
Number 6
IWC Grande Complication
Another grand complication, IWC's Grande Complication earns its moniker in no uncertain terms (more on that in a second). "Exclusive" isn't weaved into the nomenclature, though it could be. Only 50 fortunate gents will acquire one of these each year — which happens to be confirmed in four-digit Gregorian form on the face (sorry, Julian fans). Additionally, the 659-part, 75-jewel, self-winding watch features a chronograph with minute repeater, convex sapphire crystal, crown-activated rapid calendar advance, perpetual calendar and moon phase display, and screw-in crown. If situations dictate — and when don't they? — you can set it to chime on the hour, quarter-hour or every minute; the latter presumably serving as a CEO's rescue ring for unwelcome elevator pitches.
Number 5
Richard Mille RM 002-V2 Turbillon
It's difficult to settle for a single model from this relative newcomer who's taken watchmaking to another level from day one in 1999. But first, let's make it perfectly clear that we're not gushing mindless praise at yet another corporate rebel of his particular industry. Having said that, owning a Richard Mille is a rare treat. Several models are offered, and as we said, singling one out is not easy. As a good example, the RM 002-V2 Turbillon, with its carbon nano-fiber construction, is what you might imagine as the outcome of the most avant-garde designers locked in a studio with NASA engineers. To relay a few specifications in the allotted space we have here would do a great injustice to the several dozen other impressive characteristics. And that's just our non-gushing assessment.
Number 4
Parmigiani Fleurier Bugatti Type 370
Granted, the Parmigiani Fleurier Bugatti Type 370 does retail for over a quarter-million dollars. However, it's only about one-quarter the going rate for the car it was designed to complement, the Bugatti Veyron. You've no doubt heard of the car's phenomenal performance; and the watch is quite impressive in its own right. Foremost, you can't ignore the unconventional display angle. This allows the wearer to check the time at a glance without lifting his hand from the wheel or turning his wrist. Not a bad idea when scorching the Earth at over 200 mph. The watch also pays tribute with an upright parts arrangement, to resemble an engine layout. Look closely through the six sapphire crystals held by the 18-carat white-gold case. You'll see movement wheels designed to replicate the design of Bugatti wheel rims of the 1930s.
Time is of the essence and these last three makers know that better than most...

With all the new Apple announcements today, a certain Senator once again will have to be VERY concerned about how full his pipes are. A friend asked me what his name was, but I had to admit that I wasn't sure. My wife keeps up on these things so I quickly told him, "I don't know, Alaska." Ba-da BUMP PSSSSssssshhhh.
OK, all joking aside (yes that was a joke), the Stevenote was very interesting and had me excited because I am in FULL reality distortion field mode while it's going on. Makes the crash afterwards very difficult to manage, though I must admit that it does bring back vague half remembered memories from rock concerts in the 1970s.

The Legacy of Reggie Miller
Reggie Miller was born on August 24, 1965. He is considered one of the best Indiana Pacers of all-time. His sister Cheryl is considered one of the best women basketball players of all time. She once scored 105 points in a game in her high school. Reggie was good at multiple things, but the thing that most people remember him for is his trash talking. He would try to get inside your head. Once he got in your head, he would play mind tricks. The reason why Reggie shoots the way he does is because when he was little his sister Cheryl would block every shot he took.
Reggie attended University of California, Los Angeles. In 1987, the Pacers had the 11th pick in the draft. Everyone thought the Pacers were going to choose Steve Alford, but instead they choose Reggie Miller. This disheartened the fans and made them really upset with the Pacers organization. After the trade of Chuck Person in 1992, Reggie became a full-time starter for the Pacers organization. On May 7, 1995, Miller scored eight points in 8.9 seconds against the Knicks in the Eastern Conference Finals. It was really astonishing how he did it. Everybody was astonished by it, even the Pacers manager, Donnie Walsh. On May 15,2005, Reggie Miller announced his retirement after loosing the playoff series to Detroit. In my opinion, Miller is no questionable a Hall of Famer for his stats and clutch plays time after time.

Homosexuals get a bad rap
While Mister Cee is one of the most influential DJs in the hip-hop industry, he feared how he'd be accepted if it was ever discovered that he has sex with other men. Now he knows.
Cee, who spent 20 years as a DJ with Hot 97 in New York, knew that the hip-hop industry is hypocritical on its views of homosexuality. Amid lingering rumors and after being outed by a cross-dresser a few weeks ago, Cee was forced out of the closet. A female artist who is bisexual or gay will generally be accepted, but such an admission from a male artist could doom his career. »Read Full Article(14)

Mattrick negotiated Zynga buy-out while at Microsoft in 2010 – report
Zynga CEO Don Mattrick is said to have opened negotiations for a Zynga buy-out while at Microsoft in 2010, according to fresh reports.
Bloomberg cites several sources close to the issue that have said Mattrick entered discussion over a potential acquisition of Zynga with then-CEO mark Pincus as early as 2010.
While the discussions failed to bear fruit, they began a long-standing friendship between Mattrick and Pincus, and the pair first coined the idea of Mattrick becoming Zynga's CEO in March of this year.
Mattrick left Microsoft to become Zynga CEO last week, and is said to make $19.3 million this year, and as much as $50 million over the next three years if certain parameters are met.
What do you make of Mattrick's departure? Let us know below.

Infographic: How Western Coal Travels To The Nation's Most Polluting, Lethal Power Plants
The folks at High Country News have put together this fascinating infographic tracking where coal for the country's dirtiest, most lethal power plants comes from. The graphic only tracks Western coal, which overwhelmingly comes from the Powder River Basin.
This isn't a surprise: Powder River Basin coal is used for roughly 40% of coal-generated electricity in the U.S., and accounts for 14% of our greenhouse gas emissions. But it is quite interesting to see just how much coal comes from the 10 mines in that area — and what kind of impact it has.

This graph shows the challenges we will face. The heavy coal consuming regions are weak in solar, geothermal, and wind resources, and transmission lines from windy areas in the Midwest are marginal.
Texas, Montana, and Utah plants are closer to good renewable sources, and would be the best candidates for early retirement, but those states are run by Republicans.
We have to close all of these plants, of course. Many of them are paid for, so the case will be difficult to make on economic grounds- unless, of course, the coal and utility firms are charged for medical and environmental costs. There is no legal or scientific reason why this could not occur. The will to include these externalities must come from EPA, the Surgeon General, and national political leadership (assuming Obama gets reelected).
Accomplishing this feat administratively will result in a bloody political battle. So what? People's lungs are filling with blood right now from all of the SOx, NOx, mercury and particulates coming from the death machines, not to mention the CO2. The time to close them is 2013- 2014. Obama should get it over with after he's reelected.
The only reason the ecocidal fossil industry energy is cheaper than Green Sources is because "We the People" are left holding the bag! Take the profits out of pollution! NOW!
