TEMASOL: Providing Energy Access to Remote Rural Households in Morocco
In Morocco, despite the government's efforts to expand its grid-based coverage, about 9% of the rural population could not be cost-effectively connected. Given that Morocco enjoys 3,000 hours of sun per year, solar energy was therefore thought to be a cost-effective alternative. TEMASOL is a...

Sumo | SUMO SCRIBBLINGS Jul 30, 2015
Time for Hakuho to bring down curtain on legendary career?
by Mark Buckton
In 1971, when the great Taiho retired from the sport of sumo with 32 Emperor's Cups to his name, Hakuho was not yet born. Sumo was, with but a few exceptions, a Japanese-only sport, and nobody could have possibly predicted a skinny teen from ...

The cold front that has been responsible for all the rain the last two days is now moving through southern portions of the viewing area. It will slide south of us overnight, taking the rain and most of the cloud cover with it. Cooler and drier air filters in behind the front where highs will only rebound to the mid 80s tomorrow and lows will remain in the 60s for the first time since early July.
The cooler and drier air will remain in place into the weekend and only a stray shower is possible Thursday into next week.
Our concern, however, now focuses on the western Caribbean where a tropical wave looks to be developing into at least a tropical depression. If this system becomes a tropical storm, it will become Erin, the fifth named storm of the season. This wave is forecast to become a tropical storm in the next 2 to 3 days, and most models forecast this storm at this point to head for the central Gulf Coast (Mississippi/Alabama/Louisiana). If this path is followed, it will mean tropical rains for us and other impacts from a landfalling tropical system. We will be monitoring this system very closely, and you should too, especially if you have plans to head to the coast this weekend.

Cain, Giuliani Weigh In on Debt Debate
Republican Presidential candidate Herman Cain said Sunday Congress doesn't have to raise the debt ceiling if lawmakers stop their "political posturing" and "make the hard cuts" needed to curb spending.
A potential rival, former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani was more circumspect, saying America shouldn't default on its debt and suggesting the White House and congressional Republicans need to reach a deal where neither side "asks the other guy to commit political suicide."
Mr. Cain and Mr. Giuliani reflect two points on the spectrum of Republican views about the unfolding debt ceiling drama.
Mr. Cain, who made his remarks on "Fox News Sunday," has said before that the nation doesn't need to raise its debt ceiling. Asked what he made of experts who say failure to raise the debt limit could be a calamity for the economy, Mr. Cain said he hears from experts who see such rhetoric as a "charade."
Mr. Cain said there's fat to be cut from government spending on "non-essentials." He didn't offer any specifics but cautioned that the millions of unemployed won't get jobs with more government spending.
Mr. Giuliani told CNN's "State of the Union" host Candy Crowley that raising taxes "would be a disaster" for the economy right now, and "we should be slashing our corporate taxes in half."
Mr. Giuliani said he'll likely decide by summer whether to launch a bid for the presidency.
On the debt ceiling issue, Mr. Giuliani said America shouldn't default on its debt. Still, he said Democrats and conservative Republicans will have a hard time meeting in the middle.
Mr. Obama can't ask the new members of Congress who were elected on a promise that they wouldn't raise taxes to do so, Mr. Giuliani said. Likewise, Republicans "can't ask for massive reductions," he said. The solution: A deal where neither side "asks the other guy to commit suicide."

The Stanford athletic department's decision to sell tickets in an area at Maples Pavilion normally reserved for the basketball team's tradition-rich student section — the Sixth Man Club — has ignited a public dispute between a senior administrator and the club's managing director and underscored a decline in student attendance as the Cardinal finishes its worst season in 16 years.
It also has overshadowed the game tonight against UCLA.
The controversy erupted when word leaked last week that 87 tickets in Section 13, one of five lower-level sections reserved for students and band members, would be sold at $58 apiece to season-ticket holders and boosters for the UCLA game and the home season finale Saturday against USC.
The athletic department's reason: The Sixth Man Club's attendance has fallen sharply from previous seasons, and the department aimed to create a better atmosphere for two of the marquee opponents on the schedule.
A poor decision, said junior Alexis Link, the club's managing director. She doesn't believe Sixth Man attendance is as bad as Chris Hutchins, a senior associate athletic director for external relations, has stated and also is deeply concerned about the precedent being set.
"It's one thing to have young alumni in there," Link said. "We're happy to have fans from last year's graduating class who are still in the area perhaps. But it's an entirely different story when you have people who are sitting in seats throughout the game (and) not providing the same energy that the student body would."
Coach Johnny Dawkins, who came from a Duke program that feeds off probably the most famous student section in college basketball, said he is a "big proponent" of keeping the lower section opposite the team benches for students. "We have got to do whatever we can to make that happen in the future where our kids are there because we need them," the first-year coach added.
Dawkins was so concerned when the issue arose in January that he offered to buy the tickets, sources said. The athletic department did not accept his gesture, believing that it would be unfair to give freebies to students when more than 600 paid $65 each to sign up for the Sixth Man Club.
"It definitely shows you his character, making that kind of a gesture and offer," Hutchins said. "But at the same time "... you have to think about the fact that 629 paid full price and then to all of a sudden offer for the remainder of the Pac-10 Conference games free (admission), that could definitely stir up those who did pay full price."
Link said she assumed the issue had died when the Sixth Man section was packed for the Cal game Jan. 17. There had been discussions beforehand about the club losing some of its section because of dwindling attendance, but Link came away believing that a strong Sixth Man showing against Cal would eliminate the issue.
Hutchins disputed Link's assertion about the attendance at the Cal game, saying that only 324 Sixth Man members had their tickets scanned. The crowd seemed larger, Hutchins acknowledged, because 70 students bought tickets the day of the game and 70 student-athletes attended. (The section holds roughly 900 standing students).
"The numbers don't jibe because she's only going off what she thinks is her perception," Hutchins said. "We have our attendance reports in front of us, and that's what we're going off of."
Hutchins insisted the decision to sell Section 13 seats was not financially driven, even though the department announced staff layoffs Wednesday.
"Alexis may defer on that because I believe she has been quoted that she disagrees," Hutchins said. "But in talking with (Athletic Director) Bob Bowlsby and my colleagues on the senior team, we're on the same page — that it's not about eking out a couple of thousand dollars. It's again making sure that section is filled."
Earl Koberlein, who helped start the Sixth Man Club in 1993 and is now a senior associate athletic director, put some of the blame on the athletic department, saying the Sixth Man program wasn't "marketed as well as in the past."
But, Koberlein added, "If I'm watching the game on TV and see that empty section, that's embarrassing. So we did not view it as taking seats away from students. We thought, 'Hey, how can we help the team look better on TV? How can we help get some energy?' It's not going to get as loud as the students. Of course it's not. But it's going to be louder than blank bleachers."
Ultimately, the Sixth Man Club, the athletic department and the basketball office have the same objective. "The bottom line is we want nothing more than that section to be filled with students," Hutchins said. "They generate the most awesome, exciting atmosphere that it makes it hard for opponents to come and play. It just hasn't happened."

Create an Ownable Branded Energizer
Most brands need more energy to provide the visibility needed to be considered and also to support perceptions and attitudes (See post Oct. 26 http://ow.ly/eTTEa). How do you energize a brand especially when the brand has no newsworthy innovations on hand or when there is little interest not only in the brand but in the product category as well. It can be a tough assignment. The solution might be to create an ownable, internal branded energizer which is not part of the offering per se, which has energy and use that "branded energizer" to energize the target brand or subbrand.
An ownable branded energizer is a branded product, promotion, sponsorship, symbol, program, or other entity that by association significantly enhances and energizes a target brand and is developed and owned by the organization.
Some examples. The Avon Walk for breast Cancer provides energy to the cosmetics firm that could not be obtained through the offering. The Oscar Myer Weinermoble the…

Your Brand Needs Energy!
Unless your brand is one of the exceptions, it needs energy!
A brand that has insufficient energy has two potential liabilities. First, it will lack visibility and it will no longer be amongst those that come to mind when considering a purchase. It will be lost in the noise of the environment and no longer be relevant. Second, and perhaps worse, it will see declines in key image items such as perceived quality and trust and, in addition, have its ability to drive differentiation and loyalty degraded. There is disturbing evidence to back up these assertions.
The Y&R Brand Asset Valuator (BAV) database includes more than 38,000 brands measured on over 75 metrics for over more than 40 countries, from 1993 to the present. The Brand Bubble by John Gerzema and Ed Lebar reports findings from the BAV database that show brand equities (measured by trustworthiness, esteem, perceived quality and awareness) have been falling sharply over the years. For example, over the span of 12…

Crayola: How One Brand Revitalized a Vison
Crayola is a legacy brand that has universal awareness that one associates with making colorful drawings as a child. The 64-count box of crayons represents for many the emotional symbol of what was great about childhood. The century old firm had challenges brought on in part by the advent of electronic competitors for a time, from television to gaming and in part by simple demographics. Crayola was in need of a refresh of their vision, offerings, and culture.
In the inaugural issue of the Journal of Brand Strategy, Crayola CMO Victoria Lozano speaks about how this was accomplished. The process started with the assembly of a team of influential people with conceptual skills that represented different functions and levels within the company, plus an additional few people from outside the firm. With outside consultants facilitating, they spent 20% of their time for four months developing a brand identity for Crayola and determining what the brand should stand for both internally and…

Innovation on a New Level: The HUB Prize 2012 for Retail Experience Excellence
I serve as one of the judges for The HUB Prize 2012, presented by The Hub Magazine. As such, I got a preview of the winner for excellence in the retail experience. First place went to a New Delhi flagship store for Asian Paints, the third largest paint firm in India. It took retail innovation to a new level.
The concept started with the insight, garnered in part from in-home interviews, that consumers were not comfortable with color experimentation in their homes. They found paint a confusing category and were even intimidated by the idea of choosing colors.
The solution was a retail store that provides personalized color solutions within a magical in-store experience. It begins at the store entrance, where consumers step on footstones of different colors to activate a play of light and color that involves a huge chandelier and the external façade signage. This warm-up gets the consumer into color experimentation, shows how color affects space and the displays impact of light…

The Toughest Brand Challenge: Extending into a Value Arena
Moving a brand into a value arena has exceptional risks not found in other brand extension contexts. But the decision is often based on business logic driven by the attractiveness of the value market and the ability of the firm to compete. As part of that business decision and its implementation, brand strategists should be able to identify the specific business rationale and the risks of the available brand options. .
A value market may be compelling for a premium brand faced with maturing markets that exhibit perceived product sameness. The value subcategory may exhibit growth and vitality as customers become more price sensitive, as value retailers like Target, Home Depot, and Office Depot become more important, or as some innovations like the Crest Spinbrush make a value offering more relevant. Further, there may be competitors in this space that are getting a foothold and have the potential to encroach on the mainstream markets. It can be strategically important to blunt their…

The Cranchi Zaffiro 36 is a boat for the young at heart, spirit and mind where the pursuit of sun, sea and fun knows no boundaries.
When it comes to boats the Italians do things differently than the builders in most countries, and perhaps that is why they have had the most profound influence on powerboat styling of any nationality. The Cranchi Zaffiro 36 is a good example of that innovation and trendy styling, and Cranchi, like several of its fellow Italian builders, continues to stay a step ahead of its imitators.
Cranchi is a family-owned company in business since 1870, building boats in the beginning on the shores of Lake Como. The first Cranchis were sold mostly to fishermen, and they were all built of wood. In the 1950s Cranchi expanded into recreational boats, then, in 1970, into fiberglass powerboats. Working in fiberglass, the company for the first time could build boats in large numbers, and it began to grow.
Cranchi has four large production facilities. The newest covers 350,000 sq. ft. (33,000 sq. meters) and would be large in any country for the boat industry.
In the 1990s, led by Aldo Cranchi, the company took off in one of the most impressive expansions of any boat company anywhere in the world. One small factory grew into four over a 25 year period, and in the early 2000s the largest plant was opened, one of 350,000 sq. ft. That is huge for the boat business anywhere in the world.
In 2006 the company went public, but it is still run by 4th generation Aldo Cranchi, with no fewer than five 5th generation Cranchis now working for the brand. Today the company builds about 25 different models from 28' to over 50'.
The Zaffiro 36 is a lot of boat with large, uncluttered spaces on deck. Note that without the passerelle there is plenty of room on the swim platform for a tender.
The Zaffiro 36
This 35'6" (10.9 m) express cruiser is almost 27' (8.3 m) on the water with a 12'9" (3.9 m) beam and is powered by standard Volvo Penta twin D4 EVC/DP 260-hp diesel engines driving stern drives. Stern drives in a 36-footer? Well, as we said, she is 27' on the waterline so the stern drives will give her better performance than V-drive inboards, and are a lot less money than pod drives. The folks at Cranchi tell us that her WOT is about 38 mph (33 knots) and best cruise is about 32 mph (28 knots). These are good speeds for a diesel-powered boat. Cranchi offers only one other option, twin 300-hp Volvo Penta diesels, which probably won't increase her performance much.
Italians are day boaters and ardent entertainers. In fact, they never saw a boat they didn't want to throw a party on. And the Zaffiro 36 is no exception. Her cockpit is designed for comfortable day cruising for three couples, and sleepovers for two couples.
The engine access is electric. The passerelle is hydraulic and is designed for Med-Moor docking.
On Deck
Topside, the design is as sleek and elegant as they come. Her curves are gentle and look nautical, unlike the sharp, angular Cadillac-look that some other Italian designers have been favoring of late, particularly in designs they are doing for American builders. Cranchi has the self-confidence to know its own mind, and stay with the soft styling that is inherent in classic yacht architecture, and not the flavor of the month.
The Cranchi Zaffiro 36 has a very large swim platform which normally looks ugly to our eye. Perhaps that is because they are a new trend and our eye has not yet become accustomed to the look. But for some reason, on the Cranchi 36 it doesn't look bad to us. The platform tapers inward as it moves aft, with teak inserts and the passerelle in the middle breaking up the expanse. In any case, we like it and it provides a lot of space for all sorts of watersports activities, and is big enough for a tender.
In addition, pleasing style, Italian boat designers also like innovation. This proclivity often gets them into trouble with American boat buyers because quite often their innovations look good on the computer but do not work well at sea. We are happy to report that we find no glaring errors (round chart tables, helms where you can't stand up, foredecks that are impossible to walk on, etc.) on the Cranchi Zaffiro 36. In fact, we found the cockpit ergonomically correct even for beefy Americans. Look closely and you will see that the seats are all large, and that passageways are ample.
The helm has been moved slightly inboard to provide head room below in the mid cabin.
We like the pull-out refer drawer with wire bins in the portside wetbar. Finally, someone has solved the problem of getting to the cans behind the bottles in the front of the refer without them all tumbling onto the deck. And like all things Italian, the wet bar has a rounded fiberglass cover over the sink and the counter so that everything looks smooth, neat and well-designed. (Most American boat builders would never do this.)
The contrasting dark and light wood treatments make the interior decor as modern as they come.
Below we find an expanse of deck covered in a light-colored hardwood. There will be plenty of room for guests to get around without bumping into each other as they use the galley, go to their cabin, the head, and the settee. This is good design, and made possible because Cranchi has pushed the interior as far outboard as it possibly could.
You can actually see two athwartships stiffening ribs protruding from beneath the foot of the settee seat where it meets the deck. We know many builders would not dream of such a thing because it looks "crude" or "unsightly," but again Cranchi has shown its self-confidence by choosing functionality, acknowledging that we are on a boat, after all. By doing so they have created at least three inches more of sole space.
There is a lot of usable deck space on the Cranchi Zaffiro 36 and plenty of places for people to take the sun.
As you can plainly see in the pictures, the interior design and decor is au courant. We leave the soft, rounded, lovely curves of the deck and going below are greeted by just the opposite – an interior that is simple, angular, plain, bordering on the austere. Outside the boat was designed with French curves, and inside it was designed with a straight edge. Only the four corners of the settee table are rounded (thank goodness).
The light-colored woods, earth tone-colored fabrics, plaid bed spreads, and the contrasting dark brown cabinetry below the galley counter are precisely what is coming out of the tony interior design studios in Rome and Milan right now.
This double bed is large and by placing it at an angle Cranchi has opened up the cabin.
Forward Stateroom
The double berth is offset to port which is a bit unusual, but we like it because it is a good use of space. It opens up the cabin and creates more sole space so two people can get by each other. Note there are two hanging lockers and the one on the port side is as large as you will find on any 36-footer.
The head is en suite and is relatively big for this size boat. The only thing more we would like is a separate shower stall.
The galley is functional, has everything you'll need and is about as big as you will find on this size boat.
The mid cabin is full beam with portlights on both sides and a privacy door. This picture shows the beds made up with the insert in the middle.
Mid Cabin
This cabin has some measure of head room as you walk in and there is one spot with full standing head room. Otherwise, it is pretty typical of what you find in boats of this type. The cabin is full beam which is nice and makes it more roomy than on some other boats. The bed can be made up as two singles or an insert can be added to make it a king size bed or playroom.
This drawing shows the innovative utilization of space in this boat which is only 27' on the water.
If you are the kind of person who doesn't want to have the same kind of boat as everyone else in your marina, and you like the excitement of a well-executed Italian design and build, then you should look at the Cranchi Zaffiro 36. As you can see in the pictures, she is an exciting boat and it should be fun to own something so different. In Europe the boats sell for just over $300,000 MSRP. Cranchi has dealers all over the world, and eight in the U.S. Find out for yourself if the Zaffiro 36 is as fun as she looks.

The western black rhino has almost certainly become extinct in the last few years. Act for Wildlife and our partners are fighting to save the eastern black rhino, now the most threatened of the existing black rhino sub species, from the same fate.
During the last century no rhino species has suffered more terribly at the hands of poachers than the black rhino. Around 96% of the population was lost.
The last few decades of dedicated conservation action have seen numbers slowly rise, however in the last few years rhinos are again being killed in the hundreds each year due to an increasing upsurge in poaching.
Now, we have to fight to save the eastern black rhino, or lose them forever. The latest estimates are that only around 700 of these animals remain in the wild.
Armed with snares and guns, poachers kill rhinos for their horns, which they sell on the black market for traditional Asian medicines, and for ornaments. And they're getting smarter, better funded and more organised. They're finding ways to remove the horn quicker to avoid being caught. In some cases, they don't even wait for the rhino to die before hacking away the horn.
Poachers are ruthless, and being a rhino ranger or game scout is a very dangerous job. But thanks to intensive anti-poaching activity, and better community education, we have a chance to protect the remaining eastern black rhinos in the wild.
Chester Zoo works with several partners in East Africa to protect and manage important black rhino populations, and by supporting Act for Wildlife you can are also supporting these projects.
With World Rhino Day came some really exciting news from one of the projects we're supporting to protect the remaining population of Sumatran rhinos. And we couldn't wait to share the news with you too!
Today is all about celebrating rhinos, all five species of rhino - black, white, greater one-horned, Javan and Sumatran rhinos. Even though it's a day of celebrating, it's also a day of raising awareness to highlight just how serious the situation is for these animals.
We're sorry to be the bearer of bad news on a Friday afternoon, but we're in need of your amazing support!
Act for Wildlife is operated by the North of England Zoological Society.

Most new moms don't meet own breastfeeding goals
From Reuters:
Researchers at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that several factors influenced whether mothers of newborns would stick to their plan to breastfeed only, including actions by hospital staff in the first hours and days after delivery.
"We do know the hospitals have an important role to play. It's certainly a short period of time, but it's a very critical period of time," said Cria Perrine, a CDC epidemiologist who led the study.
To find out what hospitals can do, and what they should avoid, to help promote breastfeeding, Perrine and her colleagues used information from an existing study that followed more than 3,000 pregnant women between 2005 and 2007.
The women were all over 18 years old, were pregnant for at least 35 weeks and gave birth to a child who weighed at least five pounds. Participants answered at least 11 questionnaires over the course of one year, starting while they were still pregnant.
At that time, 1792 women (60 percent) who completed the questionnaires said they planned to exclusively breastfeed their babies for some period of time, ranging from several weeks to seven months or more.
Of these, the majority (85 percent) planned to breastfeed for three months or more.
But whatever their intended breastfeeding period, only 32 percent actually met their goal.

Although Congress has extended unemployment benefits until the end of the year, hundreds of thousands of the long-term jobless will find their checks cut off sooner than expected.
The checks are stopping for the long-term unemployed, according to The New York Times. More than five million people have been out of work for longer than half a year. Federal benefit extensions, which supplemented state funds for payments up to 99 weeks, were supposed to tide over the unemployed until the job market improved.
For-hire trucking picked up 1,800 jobs in April, after losing 1,900 in March. The preliminary April number for trucking was better than the same month a year ago by 38,500 jobs, and it's 99,300 jobs better than March 2010, the low point in the downturn. But the total recorded the first part of this month is still 120,800 jobs shy of the industry peak in early 2007 — a slip of 8.3 percent.
The program was intended to expire in February but Congress renewed it. However, legislators did phase in a reduction of the number of weeks the jobless could get aid and made it more difficult for states to qualify for the maximum aid. Since then, the jobless in 23 states have lost up to five months' worth of benefits.
Next month, an additional 70,000 people will lose benefits earlier than they presumed, bringing the number of people cut off prematurely this year to close to half a million, according to the National Employment Law Project. That estimate does not include people who simply exhausted the weeks of benefits they were entitled to.
Separate from the Congressional action, some states are making it harder to qualify for the first few months of benefits, which are covered by taxes on employers. Florida, where the jobless rate is 8.7 percent, has cut the number of weeks it will pay and changed its application procedures, with more than half of all applicants now being denied.
The federal extension of jobless benefits has been a political hot potato. Republicans worry that it prolongs joblessness and say it has not kept the unemployment rate down, while Democrats argue that those out of work have few alternatives and that the checks are one of the most effective forms of stimulus, since most of it is spent immediately.
After the most recent compromise reached in February, another renewal seems unlikely, the Times reported.
The expiration of benefits is one factor contributing to what many economists refer to as a "fiscal cliff," or a drag on the economy at the end of this year when tax cuts and recession-related spending measures will all come to an end unless Congress acts. The Congressional Budget Office warned last week that the combination could contribute to another recession next year.
Candace Falkner, 50, got her last unemployment check in mid-May, when extended benefits were curtailed in eight states. Since then she has applied for food stamps and begun a commission-only, door-to-door sales job. Since losing her job two years ago, Falkner said, she has earned a master's degree in psychology and applied for work at numerous social service agencies as well as places like Walmart, but no offers came.
Falkner, who lives on the outskirts of Chicago, said she was grateful for the checks she received. But when they ended, she said, "They should have had some program in place to funnel those people back into the job market. Not to just leave them out there cold, saying, 'The job market has improved, but there's still 60,000 people in the city who can't find one.' "
Unemployment is lower than it was when the emergency unemployment extensions were ramped up in November 2009. Now, it is 8.1 percent, down from 9.9 percent then. But it is still far higher than pre-recession norms, and there are more than three job seekers for every opening.
Proponents of extended benefits say the cuts are premature. Chad Stone, the chief economist at the liberal Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, said Congress had never before put the brakes on extended benefits when the labor market was so weak. "It's moving in the wrong direction, and it's occurring at a time when unemployment is very high," he said.
Conservative economists and political leaders have argued that unemployment benefits prolong joblessness and simply transfer wealth from one area of the economy to another without contributing to growth.
Kevin A. Hassett, director of economic policy studies at the conservative American Enterprise Institute, said, "I haven't liked the 99-week solution from the beginning because it creates an environment where people are subsidized to become a structural unemployment problem."
Still, he is troubled by the latest developments. "If you just reduce the weeks of unemployment for people already unemployed but don't do anything else, it's a bad deal," he said, "because they're already about the worst-off people in society."
He points to alternatives like using unemployment money to encourage entrepreneurship or paying benefits in a lump sum, rather than over time, to encourage people to find work faster.
Most states offer 26 weeks of unemployment benefits, plus the federal extensions that kicked in after the financial crash.
The number of extra weeks available by state is determined by several factors, including the state's unemployment rate and whether it is higher than three years earlier. So states like California have had benefits cut even though the unemployment rate there is still almost 11 percent.
"Benefits have ended not because economic conditions have improved, but because they have not significantly deteriorated in the past three years," Hannah Shaw, a researcher at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, wrote in a blog post. In May, an estimated 95,000 people lost benefits in California.
Flat jobless claims raise worries about job market
After the recession, 99 weeks became a symbol of the plight of the jobless, with those who exhausted their benefits calling themselves "99 weekers" or "99ers." But by the end of September, the extended benefits will end in the last three states providing 99 weeks of assistance — Nevada, New Jersey and Rhode Island.
Some states have tightened eligibility as well. Nationwide, most people apply for benefits by phone. Last August, Florida began requiring people to apply online and to complete a 45-minute test to assess their job skills, according to a complaint submitted to the federal labor secretary by the National Employment Law Project and Florida Legal Services.
The complaint said that applicants with limited Internet access or English skills, disabilities or difficulty reading had effectively been shut out, and that failure to complete the assessment was illegally being used to deny benefits. Denials have soared; now just over half of applicants are rejected. Nationally, 30 percent of applicants are rejected, according to the law project.
The changes have saved the state $2.7 million, according to James Miller, a spokesman for the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity. The state's unemployment rate, he pointed out, has declined for 10 straight months. "The Department of Economic Opportunity provides accommodations to individuals with barriers to filing their claims," he wrote in an e-mail. "D.E.O. welcomes any review and is certain that Florida's statutory changes are in full compliance with federal law."
The Labor Department is reviewing Florida's unemployment program in response to multiple complaints, a spokesman said.

Birth Control Health Center
Covering Birth Control
Erickson's lawsuit aims to assist working women like herself -- those who are neither rich enough to easily pay for contraceptives themselves nor poor enough to qualify for help from the government. And while the young newlywed is new to activism, the role of crusader for women's rights seems to be coming quite naturally. "I'm very outgoing and outspoken," Erickson says. "It's easy for me to say, 'This is wrong, fix it.'"
Bartell has yet to file a response to the suit, but in a press statement the company defended its policy as "lawful and nondiscriminatory," noting that "no medical benefits program covers every possible cost." Company officials have not spoken with Erickson about the lawsuit. She says her working environment has remained friendly.
Erickson, who grew up in Lafayette, Ind., moved to Seattle in 1999. She has worked for Bartell for 18 months and was recently promoted to pharmacy manager. She says she loves her job and considers Bartell -- which operates a chain of 45 drugstores in Washington -- a progressive workplace. But she hates telling customers that their health plans don't cover the contraceptives they need. Even more, she hates watching them turn away angrily.
"One woman recently said to me, 'I have to make rent this month, I have five kids to feed, I can't afford to pay for birth control pills,' " Erickson says. "I want to say to her, 'Don't leave without these!' I feel so bad."
But Erickson's efforts aren't simply aimed at helping others. The fact that her own company's insurance plan doesn't cover contraceptives forces Erickson -- who says she's not ready to have children -- to pay $360 a year out-of-pocket for birth control pills.
While she can afford this expense, she thinks it's unfair that she has to. And there were times in the past when she couldn't. Like many women, she turned to Planned Parenthood, where she was a regular client and a strong supporter. So when representatives from the local chapter said they would help her file a complaint against Bartell with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission last December, she didn't hesitate.

Salgótarján, city of county status and seat of Nógrád megye (county), north-central Hungary. It lies in the Tarján River valley near the border with Slovakia and is surrounded by hills. Industrial development, based on extensive brown-coal deposits, began in the late 19th century. The development of the coal mines produced the most militant traditions of the Hungarian labour movement. Salgótarján has a cast iron foundry, glassworks, and factories producing household appliances, insulating materials, and electronic goods. Many of the city's narrow ancient streets have notable houses from the 17th and 18th centuries. The nearby hills of Várhegy ("Castle Hill"), Karancs, and Boszorkánykö ("Witches' Crag") offer panoramic views. The ruined 13th-century Salgó Castle is on a basalt cone (2,050 ft [625 m]) overlooking the city. Pop. (2001) 44,964.

Leviticus Chapter 22 Summary
Common is Not God's Favorite Rapper
- Just in case anyone was still wondering, no, God insists that priests can't do anything that would lower God's holy name to the level of the layperson or unclean.
- This chapter is a laundry list of rules telling priests when they can't eat or touch holy donations or offerings.
- Big surprise: if a priest is ritually unclean, he has to stay away from holy things until he goes through a cleansing routine. If he does that, he can eat holy food in the evening.
- Laymen in the priests' household—such as a tenant or hired servant—can't eat holy food.
- The same goes for any of his daughters married to a layman.
- But hey, a priest can give sacred food to foreigners that he has purchased as slaves. Um, so let's hear it for buying people as your personal property?
- The priestly holiness instructions end with God's instructions to both the priests and the Israelites regarding injured or otherwise blemished sacrificial animals. As a general rule, not cool.
- One rule illustrates how God's holiness is wholly inconsistent with imperfection. For the peace offering, an Israelite can use an animal with a leg that's too long or short when giving thanks but not when making a vow.
- Why? Because using an animal with an imperfect leg in swearing an oath to God would be like using an animal that chews its cud but doesn't have split hooves—its means of walking are defective.
- And yes, chapter 22 also bans animals with damaged testicles. Can't forget the damaged testicles.
- Here's a puzzler: it's not permitted to sacrifice an ox or sheep on the same day as its child. Next day? Okay. Day after that? All clear.
- Likewise, a newborn ox or sheep or goat can't be offered until the eighth day after its birth. Happy sacred covenant circumcision day?

Photos: 11 community stories you should care about (Sept. 27)
Photo: ROSE BACA/neighborsgo staff photographer
Mesquite recently opened a public archery range at Westlake Sports Center. The range allows cross bows, long bows and other arrow-based devices. The addition of the archery range came after the city received a $5,000 grant from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. Placed behind the tennis courts at the sports center, the isolated location makes it an ideal spot for target practice. "As space becomes older and before we can invest a lot of money into the facilities, we try to encourage different uses," said Cliff Keheley, director of Mesquite Parks and Recreation.

Ypsilanti City Council To Consider Purchase Agreement For East Side Rec Center By Bob Eccles • Jul 7, 2014 Bob Eccles Ypsilanti City Council recently closed on a deal to sell a parcel of Water Street property for a Family Dollar Store, and there's no time to relax before the next proposal lands on council's plate. A purchase agreement for Washtenaw County's proposed east side rec center is on council's Tuesday night agenda. City Planner Teresa Gillotti. "There will be a public hearing on it," Gillotti says, "and probably a vote on it from city council to potentially accept the offer." Plans Revised For East Side Rec Center In Ypsilanti By Bob Eccles • Dec 18, 2013 courtesy of Washtenaw County. Ypsilanti City Council will likely have a purchase or development agreement for the East Side Recreation Center in January. Council Tuesday night received an update on Washtenaw County Parks and Recreation's plans for the facility in the Water Street re-development area. Park Planning Supervisor Coy Vaughn says the latest design features a smaller parcel of land and a smaller building. The new plans call for a 45-to-55-thousand square foot facility on four acres in the Water Street area. Originally, it was going to be a 55-to-65-thousand sqaure foot building set on 12-acres. Vaughn says, despite the smaller scale, no amenities or programs will have to be cut. The proposed rec center would have 230 feet of frontage along Michigan Avenue, and would leave a 100-foot easement between the facility and the river for a linear park. The purchase price is to be one dollar, with the county providing $900,000 worth of infrastructure improvements to the site and surrounding area. Listen to WEMU's Bob Eccles full report.

BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) -- Hundreds of firefighters are working to save California's scenic Big Sur as a wildfire burns ever closer to historic structures. It's already burned 16 homes and threatens another 500 houses.
The blaze in the Los Padres National Forest is only 3 percent contained and has burned nearly 37 square miles near the coast about a mile south of Big Sur.
A library named after "Tropic of Cancer" author Henry Miller is directly threatened by the fire, but a fire official says so far crews have beaten back the flames. Miller spent the last years of his life at Big Sur.
The National Weather Service predicts more dry lightning toward the end of the week. But forecasters don't think the there'll be an electrical storm as severe as the one last weekend that sparked about 800 fires across Northern California.

AWFS: Laguna tablesaw, bandsaw hit the value sweet spotcomments (3) July 25th, 2013 in blogs
Most serious hobbyists are looking for a combination of value and performance, enough machine to do uncompromising work, without any overkill. A new Laguna machine, and one upgraded one, hit that spot squarely.
Hard to beat this bandsaw
At $1,100 the new 14-in. bandsaw, the 14 Twelve (refers to 12 in. of resaw capacity), available in September, seems to have just about everything I would want in a saw, without going over the top. It is designed to offer a more affordable Laguna option for a 14-in. model, as their Cadillac 14-incher, the SUV, starts at $1,700. However the "Twelve" has the same ceramic guides as the SUV (favorites in past FWW tests), similar resaw capacity (just 2 in. less), and the ability to successfully tension a 3/4-in. blade, according to the company, which is great for resawing (according to everyone).
The key, said Laguna's product designers, is a very stiff frame, welded carefully in Taiwan, as opposed to China. The fit and finish of the entire saw, including all of the sheet metal work and welds, looked top-notch.
But this thoughtful design goes further than that. There is a magnetic safety switch that you must pull to turn on, a 6-in.-tall, 2-position fence for serious resawing, and a table that tilts both ways. The saw also includes a posable light, another user-friendly feature.
With a 1-3/4-hp motor that runs on 110 power, I would say that this is plenty of saw for most woodworkers, and a tough value to beat. We'll be testing this one soon.
A tablesaw for everybody
Hitting the same target as the new bandsaw, the updated Fusion 10-in. tablesaw promises plenty of power and features for fine woodworking, without the high price of an industrial cabinet saw. Priced just above the bandsaw at $1,300 for the 36-in. version, and available right now, this saw's hybrid-size 1-3/4-hp motor should have plenty of power to handle hardwoods.
It has a state-of-the-art safety system, with two types of riving knives that change out quickly, and a switch that is mounted on the fence rail for quick access. The latter is one of the upgrades.
Another improvement is a hose that connects the hood under the trunnions with the port at the bottom of the cabinet, for better collection efficiency. Speaking of the cabinet, it goes all the way to the floor, with a mobile base built in. Upgrades include adjustment wheels made of polished steel and onboard storage for the rip fence.
There is a lot of thoughtful design in these two machines, with today's woodworkers firmly in mind.

GE Healthcare and Intel Expanded Agreement to Market Intel Health Guide in UK
GE Healthcare, a unit of GE and Intel Corporation have announced that they have expanded their sales and marketing agreement for the Intel Health Guide to include the United Kingdom(UK). GE Healthcare already markets the Intel Health Guide in the United States.
The Intel Health Guide is a care management tool designed for health care professionals who manage patients with chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and heart failure. GE Healthcare's capabilities in disease management, and its distribution reach in the healthcare sector in the UK will help drive understanding of the benefits of this innovative technology, which includes patients' self-monitoring of health status and a direct communications channel to healthcare professionals.
This announcement further expands GE Healthcare's Home Health business in the United Kingdom. Currently the company operates a successful home health business in the United States, providing technologies to help seniors live independently and patients with chronic diseases manage their conditions from their home. With 3,000 employees in the United Kingdom, GE Healthcare is a world class provider of technologies for patient monitoring and diagnosis of disease, and has provided services to the NHS and the U.K. private health sector for more than 30 years. GE Healthcare's Home Health business in the United Kingdom will be managed by Richard Rees-Davies.
The U.K. Department of Health estimates that in Great Britain up to 17.5 million adults and up to three-quarters of those over the age of 75 could be living with a chronic disease. By 2030, the department also estimates that the incidence of chronic disease in those over the age of 65 will more than double, creating an enormous and increasing burden for society. With the dramatic increase of people with chronic conditions and an aging population, there is a need to extend care from the hospital to the home.
Both GE and Intel are currently active in patient monitoring and home health, with well-recognized brands and strong sector expertise:
GE QuietCare® is a remote passive activity and behavioral monitoring system for the elderly, alerting caregivers to changes that may signal potential health issues or emergency situations such as a fall or emerging health problem. It is used primarily in assisted living facilities across the United States. GE Healthcare also brings significant capabilities in the development of products for critical care patient monitoring, cardiac diagnostics, home respiratory care, and healthcare IT such as electronic medical records and clinical decisions support.
The Intel® Health Guide is a comprehensive personal health system combining an in-home patient device with an online interface to allow clinicians to monitor patients in their homes and manage care remotely. The Health Guide includes vital sign collection, patient reminders and communications tools such as video conferencing and alerts. Intel already has a number of pilot programs underway in the United Kingdom to assess how the Health Guide can improve care management models in the home.
