Skill Level Beginner
At a very basic level, the Layers panel in Illustrator allows us to divide our artwork up in two sections that way we can more easily work within a more complicated file. However, there is a tremendous amount of hidden power inside the Layers panel that really helps us work with just about any file whatsoever and no additional work is necessary. In this example here we do have three layers. These are the exact same three layers that we created in the previous movie. The document that I'm working with here, if you want to follow along is called object_hierarchy; you will find that inside of Chapter 09 of the exercise files. Let me go ahead and move this just a little bit over here to the right here so we can get a better idea of what's happening. I'm going to expand this particular Layers panel so that we can see a lot more of it; in a minute you will see why.
Notice that each of the layers themselves have a little triangle what we call disclosure triangle or some people refer to them as twirleys or twirl downs. Let's start off here on the bottom with a background layer. We know that the background layer, as we saw before it consist of one particular rectangle or one path that we created, that's filled with a gradient. If I go ahead in the Layers panel right here and I click on that little twirl down, I'll see that the path exists here. Now, even though this path is listed here in the Layers panel, this itself is not a layer. Take a look at how the background layer itself over here that I have has a great background, but the path is sitting on a while background.
Well, basically the Layers panel itself has the ability to show me not just layers but also objects or in fact all the objects that exist inside of a file and I can distinguish the difference between paths or objects and layers by seeing what color the background is inside of the Layers panel. In fact, let's go ahead and click on the twirl downs for the Separate Objects layer and also for the Grouped Element layer. I'll click down over here in the blank areas that I have no layer selected. As in quick overall view I can see right away that I have three layers in my document. I have the Grouped Element layer, the Separate Objects layer, and the background layer again identified each by gray backgrounds.
The white backgrounds here indicate objects that exist inside of those layers. The importance of this is twofold. First of all, I have the ability now to see every single object that exists inside of my file right here under Layers panel. And in addition, I also have the ability to visually see the hierarchy or the way that the objects are built inside of my file. Remember that everything inside of Illustrator is build from the bottom-up. So I see that in this document, this path comes first on the bottom as the background. Then I have this particular path here, then this path and this path. There is a group, this path, for example, and then moving forward. Now that we understand that, let's take another look over here. I see that in my Separate Objects layer, which is this element here that's made of many different objects, there is a group that exists there. If I click on the twirl down for that group, I see the elements that exist inside of that group.
In fact, that group right here is the word Surf, but it's a different compound shape that exists right there for the letter S, U, R and F. Let me go ahead and close that for a second here. Take a look at the Grouped Element. I now see that there is a group. These elements now live inside of a single group. If I click on the twirl down I'll see that the same elements that make up the Separate Objects are now put inside of this overall group. We discussed before I could use Isolation mode to basically jump into a group and edit objects within that group. We also know that we can bring objects to the front or to the back of other objects again within a single layer.
Well, rather than always have to travel up to the Object menu to change the stacking order of objects you can do things directly through the Layers panel. For example, right now this word Hawaii is sitting above this particular red path, which is this word right here Hawaii over this red path right here. However, if I take this layer right here or this object within the Layers panel and drag it beneath that red path, we will see that I now changed the stacking order. It's still there, but I just sent it behind that particular object. I can Undo that or change it by simply taking that and dragging it above as well. But perhaps most important of all is how you can work with appearances and layers together. I explained before that when we had this particular element here that we have grouped together and we applied the Drop Shadow, the Drop Shadow now is applied to the Grouped Element, which means that if I were to selected this group right now and choose to un-group it, the Drop Shadow would disappear.
Now the reality is that when you are working inside of a graphic and you select a particular object, you see it has a Drop Shadow. How do you know if that Drop Shadow belongs to the group or not? Well, when you use the Layers panel, it's a really easy way to tell. Take a look over here. I'm going to deselect this piece of artwork right now. Take a look on the far right on the Layers panel and you will notice that each layer or an object has a little circle here. Some of these circles are hollow while some of them are filled with a gradient. These circles are called target circles and depending on the way that they look, they identify to us as designers, whether or not those particular elements have appearances or I would say complex appearances applied to them.
Let's explain; I'll bring up the Appearance panel here because these things go hand in hand. Let's close the Graphic Styles here. So I have the Appearance panel and I have the Layers panel here side by side. Let's move this over just a little bit so we can see a little bit more, what we are dealing with. We know that the path itself that exists right here is a regular path that's filled with a gradient. Since it has a single Fill and a single Stroke, that particular element has a basic appearance. Any object or a layer that appears in the Layers panel with a hollow circle identifies that object or layer as having a basic appearance.
However, any time you see a shaded target circle, that means that, that particular object or layer has a complex appearance applied to it and in fact with that having to do too much detective work. We can easily take a look at this file right now and see what is going on. This group right here has the Drop Shadow on it because if I look right over here at the group, I see that the group has a target circle that has that shaded, meaning that this group has some complex appearance on it. However, each of the objects inside of that group, all have basic appearances, which means that they obviously can have Drop Shadows on them. In comparison, take a look at the Separate Objects layer. The layer itself has a regular target circle, meaning that the layer itself has a basic appearance. However, each of the individual objects within that layer obviously have complex appearances, meaning that I might assume that they all have Drop Shadows on them. You can see this very clearly simply by clicking on the target circle itself. If I go here to the group and I click on the target circle, I'm manually targeting that particular group.
Now, Illustrator employs something called Smart Targeting, which means if I click on a group, Illustrator automatically targets the group for me, thinking that if I want to apply an effect, I want it to be applied to the overall group. However, I can manually target anything inside of Illustrator by clicking on its target circle. For example, clicking on this word Hawaii right here, on the target circle here, identifies that this text is now selected and targeted and that particular object has a Drop Shadow applied to it. So it's obvious that the Layers panel contains a tremendous amount of information about how my file is actually built and even if you don't actually use layers in your artwork. The ability to see the object hierarchy in your file and the appearances that are applied to them make the Layers palette a very valuable tool.

The Lion in Winter; Bill Conway, New York's Top Zookeeper, Goes Out With a $43 Million Roar
By DOUGLAS MARTIN
Published: February 28, 1999
WILLIAM G. CONWAY had driven all night from Chicago, and he was lost in the Bronx. The streets were stone empty and seemed eerily endless. Suddenly, he heard a siren, and he was arrested for drifting through a red light. ''I almost turned around and went back,'' he said.
But he stayed, rising from No. 2 bird curator at the Bronx Zoo in 1956 to captain of one of the biggest wildlife conservation and exhibition juggernauts in the world. By 1966, he was head of the zoo. Just four years later he was at the helm of the Wildlife Conservation Society, the zoo's parent group, founded in 1895 as the New York Zoological Society by Theodore Roosevelt and members of New York's philanthropic class.
During the last decade, Mr. Conway has presided over what may be the biggest expansion, at least in acres, of any city cultural institution. The Conservation Society has taken over zoos that the city could no longer manage: the Central Park Zoo in 1988, the Flushing Meadows-Corona Park Zoo in 1992 and the zoo in Prospect Park in 1993. Flashy new exhibits have been added at the Bronx Zoo and Coney Island Aquarium.
Attendance at the zoos and aquarium grew to 4.4 million last year from 3.1 million in 1988, as the society's budget shot up to $78 million from $38 million. With city support receding, private fund-raising doubled, to $21 million, while Conservation Society membership tripled to 94,625.
Mr. Conway plans to retire by year's end, and go out with a roar. His most audacious exhibit, the Congo Gorilla Forest, is scheduled to open in June at the Bronx Zoo, which celebrates its 100th anniversary this year. Costing more than $43 million, Congo will be the most expensive animal exhibit in city history, displaying more than 20 gorillas, 35 other species of animals and 400 kinds of plants. At 6.5 acres, it will be bigger than the entire Central Park Zoo.
Yet the old zoo men -- or silverbacks as they like to call themselves, in honor of dominant male apes -- mourn the impending loss of their leader. ''Bill is the guru of our profession,'' said Ed Moluska, director of the Cincinnati Zoo. George Robb, director of Chicago's Brookfield Zoo, called him ''the leader in terms of maintaining the relevance of our institutions in modern society.''
Mr. Conway said he was retiring because he had told the chairman of the society's trustees a decade ago that 70 sounded like a proper retirement age. ''I made a terrible mistake,'' he said, perhaps jokingly. ''I should have said 95.'' But it was his choice, and the current chairman, David T. Schiff, says it remains his choice. A search committee has been formed to find a successor.
Yet his legacy will remain. Mr. Conway has transformed the Bronx Zoo from a place where lions prowled cages in neo-classical buildings to one where animals can be seen in naturalistic settings without bars. He has turned the zoo into an educational outpost, keeping attendance fees relatively low. Though adults paying $7.75 might beg to differ, the San Diego Zoo charges $22.
Mr. Conway has also pursued a grander goal: preserving wildlife from extinction by pushing the Conservation Society deeper into faraway jungles, deserts and swamps to learn how to save threatened species. The society now has 326 conservation projects in 52 countries -- more than all the other zoos in the United States combined -- compared with 70 in 32 countries a decade ago. And he has revolutionized zoo keeping, successfully urging American zoos to share animals for breeding.
For all his status in conservation circles, though, Mr. Conway is little known to most people. His biggest public flap was his much criticized attempt in 1993 to remove the word zoo from the society's zoos because he claimed that the dictionary's secondary meaning of zoo -- ''rampant confusion or disorder'' -- made it inappropriate.
The battle ended in something of a tie. The name Bronx Zoo, which society officials say is good for advertising, remains on the sign, but in smaller letters below ''Bronx Wildlife Conservation Park.'' At the Central Park, Prospect Park and Flushing Meadows-Corona Park zoos, the Z-word is absent.
Mr. Conway regrets that he will be leaving with an unfinished agenda. He yearns to turn the old monkey house into an ''Invertebrate Empire'' and the old lion house into an environmental education center. And he wants to try evening hours at the zoo.
Still, there is Congo. Mr. Conway is like the master planner with whom he used to do business, Robert Moses, in that people tend to agree with him, city and society officials say. The city has consistently forked over money -- including $10.6 million for Congo -- with few questions asked.
In part, this is a result of Mr. Conway's razor-sharp negotiating skills. Parks officials still complain that he bested them on terms for the society to take over the zoos. He is quick to play the trump card that zoo animals can die if animal experts are not allowed to proceed exactly as they wish.
Mr. Conway also argues that zoos will lose their moral imperative if they shrink from addressing the extinction issue, a point he is trying to make with the Congo exhibit. It will be the first special exhibit at the Bronx Zoo to charge extra, an additional $3 on top of the regular zoo admission fee. Visitors will be asked to use voting machines to specify which African conservation project will get their $3, thus linking the urban zoo to a threatened environment.

I think I've seen some people talk about sub pages here, I'm not certain though. Anyway is that, for an example, like having a page called "food" and then the sub page is "food/pizza"?
Also, if I'm right, how do you make them?
(Just so you know, food and pizza are just for examples)

I bought about $44 worth of gas there and later that evening my wife asked me why there was a $125 charge to Chevron on our credit card. I dunno, I sez, I bought 13 gals of gas. She calls the station and some rude Iranian or whatever yells, "No man! no man!" and hangs up on her. I call back and they hang up on me immediately (caller ID I guess). Just no excuse for that kind of rudeness. One of the wonderful benefits of multiculturalism.
The reason turns out (learned from contacting the card issuer to dispute the charge) is that some Chevrons charge about $125 immediately no matter what your purchase amount, and then it is lowered later. This was a credit card, so that is total B.S. -- and the reason I will never buy gas there, or any Chevron, ever again.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

I had just awakened and was told that I was going to be approved for an unsecured Visa credit card. There was a 2.9% APR and no monthly or annual fees. I was asked for my driver's license number. I replied with the number and after this, I became totally aware of what was happening. I realized what I had done.
The individual then asked me if I had a savings or checking account. When I said yes, he said he could have the card sent out within two days if I gave hime the account number to withdraw the "registration fee" of $299.00.
I was now very reluctant to give out any information and I began to ask the individual questions. I asked him why he needed the account number right now. He said that he could have the card sent out in two days, otherwise it would take up to 30 days for it to be delivered. I then asked him to repeat the name of the credit card. He replied that the company was "First Approval Visa".
I then told him that I had to take my children to school and would he give me a phone number so that I could call him back just as soon as I returned home. He answered, "(866)969-6272".

Ricky Hatton: The Right Time For Murray To Beat Martinez
By Jhonny Gonzalez
Promoter Ricky Hatton is convinced that Martin Murray is getting a hold of WBC middleweight king Sergio Martinez at the right time. This Saturday the unbeatn Murray (25-0-1, 11KOs) will challenge Martinez (50-2-2, 28KOs) before 40,000 fans at Club Atlético Vélez Sarsfield in Buenos Aires, Distrito Federal, Argentina. Hatton states that Martinez's age, along with his recent injuries and tough twelfth round against Chavez, make it the perfect opportunity for Murray to prevail.
"The opportunity and timing are everything in boxing. And I am convinced every day that Martin is faced Martinez at the right time in the life of the two, not only of Murray," Hatton told BoxingScene's Carlos Irusta. "Sergio is 38 years with some injuries that are known to everyone and had to fight for his life in the last round of his fight against Julio Cesar Chavez, when he was on the floor. I do not mean by any means that the fight will be easy for Martin, no way. But I just think that is a boxer who is in his prime and will have a class approach."
"The other thing that makes me think that Martin can win is the fact that he is not afraid. Martin is ready to stick his head in the lion's mouth, as when he traveled to Germany to fight Felix Sturm: that night did a good job and now he is even more determined than ever to be crowned champion."
No Ricky.....another British hype job.Comment by Tonyu on 04-24-2013
I like Ricky and he always fought with his heart on his sleeve and hats off to him he was honest after his comeback but if I remember correctly he said the same thing about Macklin before he fought Martinez…Comment by Jloro on 04-24-2013
[QUOTE=richardt;13284703]You didn't hear he failed his comback attempt??????[/QUOTE] lol I was kidding because he acted like hhe was on a big comeback spree and now he is acting like Murray will beat MartinezComment by Chuckguy on 04-23-2013
As a Martinez fan I'm smelling upset. I want Sergio to win but I have a bad feeling. I hope I'm wrong. I'm hoping Martinez wins by devastating KO and then mans up and fights GGG. I know wishful thinking.Comment by mathed on 04-23-2013
People talking about that damn knee like it's the end of the world. You guys do realize that his knee was injured before both the Barker, Macklin and Chavez fights right? Apparently, he had a broken elbow before the Barker…Post a Comment - View More User Comments (16)

Thanks for your mail and I did not envisaged any expenses on this issue right from the beginning and there is no way we could allow this to stop us from achieving our goals. I am very confused as i do not know what to do now.Look Mr. Garon, i want to inform you that i will able to raise $2200 and you are to raise the balance $800 and make the payment to the bank as you are aware that i spent so much money to procure the documents that i sent to you.I am willing to give you 50% of the total sum if you raise the balance fund from there.
Please do try and raise some fund and pay the balance $800 so that we can have the account activated and from what the bank sent to you the $3000 is still part of our fund in that account.
I want to also let you know that my wife's Cancer has really taken all my finances from me and she will be going for another surgery very soon that also will cost me great money.I will want us to transfer the fund to your account before the surgery as that is the only hope i have to pay for her treatment.
Expecting to hear from you

I have been through a bankruptcy and I believed this was one way for me to re-establish my credit. I made the mistake of giving them my checking account number and the next check number and they would in turn take $229.00 out of my checking account in return I would receive four credit vouchers worth $50.00 each to be used on my card.
Little did I know that this was not a valid credit card. I received a catalogue of merchandise that could be used for my purchases. This is not what I thought it was going to be. This "credit card" could not be used anywhere else except with there merchandise.

Tatiana Volosozhar and Maxim Trankov also signalled they will be gold medal contenders at the Black Sea resort by taking the pairs title and putting Russia back on top of an event they once dominated.
Although Chan's sloppy free skate to Puccini's "La Boheme" did not come close to capturing the magic or record marks he received for Wednesday's short program, he did just enough scoring 267.78 to become first skater since Russia's Alexei Yagudin (1998-2000) to claim three consecutive world titles.
It marked the fourth time in six years a Canadian man has stood atop the world podium and brings Chan's championship haul to five medals with two silvers to go along with three gold.
Chan entered the free skate with a whopping seven point lead and needed all of the advantage to ensure victory.
Tapping into the energy of the biggest crowd of the championship, the 22-year-old Canadian started impressively, landing two dazzling quadruple jumps.
But his program began to unravel in equally spectacular fashion with Chan landing on his backside twice and botching his three-jump combination.
When the music stopped, a rattled Chan could not hide his disgust, hanging his head before eventually managing the smallest of smiles.
"I am angry at myself, I am mad because I didn't skate well for this audience," an apologetic Chan said. "I am sorry I didn't skate better for them.
"It is a two program competition and I am thankful for a beautiful short program.
"Maybe I'm saving it up for Sochi.
"I feel good, will enjoy this day, week. It's where I want to be heading into Sochi."
On an error strewn night that will never go down as an advertisement for men's skating, it was left to Kazakhstan's Denis Ten to provide the evening's shining moment. easily winning the free skate to take silver with a mark of 266.48.
Ten's achievement made him the first skater from his country to medal at the world championships.
European champion Javier Fernandez of Spain, seventh after the short program, delivered the comeback of the competition jumping up to take the bronze with 249.06.
After a trying season packed with uninspiring performances, Chan arrived in London declaring himself the underdog but will not be able to assume that role in the build-up to Sochi.
A less than stellar performance in Friday's free skate left no doubt there is plenty of work to be done before next February but Chan will at least start out as the gold medal favourite.
"I can take a lot out of these world championships, I'm going to take a win, put it in my back pocket and learn from it for next season," Chan said.
For Volosozhar and Trankov, the timing of their triumph could not have been better as they look ahead to competing on home ice next year.
In sharp contrast to chaotic scenes in the men's event, Volosozhar and Trankov produced and elegant and daring free skate that earned them a runaway 20-point victory with a world record total of 225.71.
The Russians ended the two-year world championship reign of Germany's Aliona Savchenko and Robin Szolkowy, who settled for silver, while Canada's Meagan Duhamel and Eric Radford took the bronze.
"It means we can fight for the gold in Sochi and give back to Russia Olympic gold," said Trankov, when asked what the win meant. "For sure it is very important to win the year before the Olympic Games and we are absolutely happy to get this gold."
Russians won 12 consecutive pairs Olympic golds from 1964 through 2006 but were shut out of the medals completely at the 2010 Vancouver Games.
They also dominated the world championships from 1965 to 1990, only failing to win gold three times but have not seen a Russian pair on top the podium since Tatiana Totmianina and Maxim Marinin in 2005.

Message in a Battle
Theyre the most underappreciated talents in theater, falling somewhere between the ticket taker and the lighting designer in the recognition department. Playwrights seldom get their due, a fact that local author Richard Warren has been trying to rectify for the past decade with Phoenix Theatre's New Works Festival. Warren selects several new pieces -- this year there are four, one written by Warren himself -- and presents staged readings of the works featuring some of our better local stage talent.
Of the four, its Alexander Danners Parens. that garnered the most pre-festival praise. A winner of PTs national playwriting competition, Danners story of a pair of siblings whose parents live together but communicate only through recorded messages offers opportunities for both comedy and commentary.
Parens. was irected by Daniel L. Schay. The festival winds up with readings of Stefanie Zadravecs Save Me, directed by Mark DeMichele, on August 3 and 4.

Report: Fan injures brain in fall at Ravens game
Report: Fan injures brain in fall at Ravens game.
This is becoming a serious and unwelcome trend in the NFL.
On Nov. 24, a fan fell from the upper deck of Ralph Wilson Stadium during a Buffalo Bills game, landing on and injuring a fan below.
This past Sunday came reports that a woman jumped 45 feet from the upper deck at O.Co Coliseum in Oakland, only to have her fall broken in an apparent suicide attempt by a bystander. At present, the man who broke the fall is expected to recover; the woman who jumped is listed in critical condition.
But that was not the only incident of a fan injured in a fall at an NFL stadium in Week 12.
In Baltimore, a 48-year-old man slipped and fell on steps in the upper deck of M&T Bank Stadium, according to the Baltimore Sun. Dan Clark of Ferndale, Md., fell to the bottom of a staircase late in the first half of Sunday's game, reportedly suffering injuries to his head in the fall.
The story said he was in "serious condition" at the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center and was to undergo brain surgery Sunday night.
According to the story:
"Clark's brother, Jim Clark, went to the bathroom with around 4 minutes to go in the first half. Upon returning, he found his brother lying 'in a pool of blood,' surrounded by stadium staff at the bottom of the staircase in Section 521, where the two had been sitting."
In the incident in Buffalo, both men involved were briefly hospitalized and released.
On the NFL's opening day this year, a fan died from a fall off a pedestrian overpass outside Candlestick Park in San Francisco, and two others were injured when a railing collapsed at the Colts' game against the Raiders in Indianapolis.

When a business or homeowner lowers their electricity bill by installing solar panels or wind turbines, do they drive up other customers' utility bills?
That's the perennial claim made by utilities that oppose policies that would require them to compensate customers for electricity they generate.
Most recently in Iowa, utilities argue that feed-in tariff and net-metering rules benefit a small group of customers at the expense of everyone else.
"The concept of subsidizing somebody's electricity at the expense of others is one our boards around the state have not been able to get behind," Tim Coonan, a lobbyist for the Iowa Association of Electric Cooperatives, said last month after a feed-in tariff bill for small wind cleared an Iowa Senate committee.
Also last month, a spokesperson for Pacific Gas & Electric told Midwest Energy News that under California's policies, poor households "subsidize the more affluent community" of homeowners who can afford to install solar panels.
The subsidy argument, however, is one that is overused and understudied, according to distributed power advocates.
"It's a claim that needs a lot more investigation before it is reasonable to take it at face value," says John Farrell, a senior researcher with the Institute for Local Self-Reliance and a leading expert on customer- and community-owned clean energy.
In California, 'it's actually the opposite'
A recent cost-benefit analysis of California's net-metering policy found some customers paying slightly more as a result of others' solar panels, but on average the state's electricity customers were benefiting from the customer installations more than the systems' owners.
In other words, California customers who have used solar panels to lower their electric bills are the ones subsidizing everybody else.
"They found despite utilities' claims … about customers not paying their fair share of the fixed costs, it's actually the opposite," Farrell said.
The January 2013 report, prepared by consulting firm Crossborder Energy for the Vote Solar Initiative, looked at a broader range of benefits than most utilities acknowledge. For example, customer-owned solar panels can lower transmission costs and postpone local equipment upgrades.
California's net-metering policy requires utility meters to run forward and backward for customers that generate their own power. The state's major utilities claimed the rule would push billions of dollars of additional costs onto ratepayers who don't participate in the program.
"We conclude that the utilities' concerns with the impacts of [net-metering] on nonparticipating ratepayers are unfounded," the Crossborder Energy report says.
The analysis studied the impact on residential and commercial customers of Pacific Gas & Electric, San Diego Gas & Electric, and Southern California Edison. When fully implemented, the average PG&E residential customers would likely pay a few cents more per month because of the policy.
All other customers, including PG&E's commercial customers, would likely see benefits. Averaged across all three utilities, it creates a "small net benefit" for residential customers, and clear cost savings for commercial, industrial and institutional customers.
'It's really complicated'
So does that mean Iowa utilities are wrong to say that paying for customers' wind power will push costs onto other customers? Not necessarily.
"In the end, it's really complicated. You can't take that study from California and generalize it for any utility," Farrell said.
The variables range from grid congestion to rate structures. Without a specific cost-benefit analysis, you can't just assume customer-owned generation adds costs, he said.
Paul Gipe, a California solar analyst who tracks feed-in tariff policies, says they're simply a way to pay for new generation.
"This is exactly the same as when a private company, an electric utility, for example, is approved by its regulator to build a conventional power plant 'in the public interest'," says Gipe. The costs and benefits are studied, and if regulators think the plant is in the public's interest, they will approve it even if it results in new costs for customers.
In a way, feed-in tariffs offer ratepayers more predictability and protection than conventional power plants, which usually come with a guaranteed profit margin for utilities, says Gipe. Feed-in tariffs require utilities to pay a certain rate for a set amount of time, but it isn't adjusted upward if generation costs turn out to be higher than expected.
Buying solar power from utility customers is no more a subsidy for renewables than paying to build a gas or coal plant is a subsidy for fossil fuels, Gipe says. A subsidy is research dollars and tax credits for nuclear and fracking technology — not paying a fair price for generation, he says, and the distinction matters.
"The word 'subsidy' has a negative political connotation," says Gipe. "Because of that, the word subsidy should be used correctly."
3 thoughts on "Are feed-in tariffs a 'subsidy' for a small group of utility customers?"
This legislative session (2013) the Iowa REC's used the argument above once again to fight and stop renewable energy legislation. Unfortunately this argument has resonated in the NGO community as well and seems to have reduced or eliminated the amount of organizing money available to support this proven policy pathway. Hopefully, more will finally start to understand the power of "sending the market the correct signals" before we shoot past the atmospheric carbon, point of no return. Great article!
My take on all this is that we need to move past these kinds of "old paradigm" brush fires — they aren't central to the urgent issues of the climate discussion. Old paradigm = whatever is bad for the utility must be good for customers/environment and vice versa. New paradigm = solutions that align interests of various stakeholders that allow progress to be made without unnecessary conflict.
For DG, there are regulatory frameworks (buy all/sell all, or Karl Rabago's "net metering 2.0" construct) that align utility interests with the interests of utility customers that want to install DG, which sidesteps this "how many angels can dance on the head of a pin" debate over cost shifting to non-participating customers. We need to work harder to find and deploy those kinds of new paradigm solutions, rather than get distracted by unproductive squabbles between key stakeholders.
I am reluctant to see subsidy used to "engineer" what technology is used for power generation. Normally controlled markets fail. Free market forces do a much better job. Most utilities have to file an Avoided Cost. If a DG supplier can provide power at the Avoided Cost or less, it is in the ratepayer's best interest to let the DG supply it. Simple. Fair. No subsidy is needed.

Both my 10 month and 3 year old loved this and their fussy Dad too! But we all thought it'd be better with pasta as the sauce is quite tomatoey and so doesn't seem to go that well with the rice.

I've been searching through plugins and have been unable to find something I'm looking for. Currently using GD Star Rating and its OK but I'm looking for a plugin that has thumbs up and thumbs down, but displays information that X amount of people found this post helpful. I am not sure if this is a comments only feature, but I'm looking for something along the lines of the Amazon.com rating system that is in place but instead of being for products, I would like it for our posts.
The star rating was not working for us as nobody was using it. I'm hoping that a simple thumbs up & thumbs down option while displaying the correct data from these votes will achieve more input from visitor and the information displayed will provoke more people to click and read the posts/pages.
Thanks in advance!

My main issue with this company at the current time is from a chargeback issues against me. After i was notified of this chargeback I quickly called my customer and settled it over the phone. He canceled the charge back that same day with Chase bank and provided me the confirmation number for the charge back cancelation. I quickly (same day) forwarded this to Square. This was over 6 weeks ago and I still have not heard anything other than nothing. with EVERY other payment processor i have ever used (all the major ones) this kind of issue is resolved without a couple business days. I have nothing to believe that they have either totally stolen my money or are letting it sit in an account to make them a little extra cash. Bottom line is if you actually want the money you work har to earn never ever ever use Square Up because they will find someway to screw you.....either through something like this or through all their crazy low limitations that are in small print. Square is the small print king of the payment processing world.

Baghdad (AP) A spokesman says Iraq's presidential council has approved the security pact with the United States.
That's the final step for the agreement to replace a U.N. mandate that expires on Dec. 31. The deal sets out a three-year timeframe for a full withdrawal of U.S. Troops.
The spokesman for the Presidential Council Nasser Al-Ani tells the Associated Press that the agreement was signed Thursday by President Jalal Talabani and his two deputies.
The Iraqi Parliament approved the deal last month but with the caveat that it should go before voters in a referendum to be held by July 30.

Security Requirements Reusability and the SQUARE Methodology
Security is an important and complex quality attribute in many software-intensive systems. Unfortunately security is often neglected in the requirements stage of the development life cycle. Security is introduced later, in design and implementation, which results in inadequate analysis, cost overruns, and vulnerabilities costing billions of dollars annually. Even when security requirements are specified, they are likely at an incorrect level of abstraction, either too general to be useful or too focused on design implications. To be most effective, security should be an integrated part of systems development from the beginning, addressed with the same discipline as other system requirements.
