Finally some conscientious tech in Las Vegas figured out what was going on, the last tech that I had talked to said the job had been finished. Cox uses outsourcing to do thier cable work, so that company had simply sent someone out, he looked at the problem and I guess he just reported back what was going on but didn't fix anything. So I guess he had checked it.
In the meantime I'm still down so I call the company and they in so many words tell me they can't get another person to look at it for another 3-5 days because they had another work order on it at the time that said it would be done at anytime, they didn't say from 3-5 pm or something like that, they just had on the tech's report, "anytime."
So needless to say, as i write this on another friend's computer I am still waiting for them to fix my system and, I have an internet business that I can't edit or work on bvecause my system is idle. Do perhaps if you have another option other than cox you might research that and think about it. I know they're such a large company that a leter like tis may not, probably want affect them, but if enough of us keep putting this info in perhaps they'll get off the pot.

Cox - Worst customer relation company on earth
SUBMITTED: Thursday, August 10, 2006POSTED: Thursday, August 10, 2006
I had their services for years and years, running into service outages quite frequently, sometimes days at a time. Billing "issues", being charged for features I didn't have, on and on.
The straw the broke Mr. Camelback's - back?
One day, out of the blue, the pictures on both receivers were snowy.
I called and asked for a repairman.
They came out, spent and hour doing whatever they were doing, and then told me they couldn't find the problem - and LEFT! They didn't bother to tell me they were NOT coming back unless I called again, in fact, they didn't give any kind of solution at all.
Upon realizing what had happened, I called them the next day. "Well, sir, our notes show that they couldn't find the issue and that they would have to come out again". Fine, I said, why didn't they tell ME that, and WHEN are they coming back? " I don't know why they didn't inform you, and you will have to schedule another appointment".
It's not exactly a convenient thing to have to schedule these kinds of appointments. I did, they came back again. This time, the man told me he was going to have to search some place 4 miles away for the problem.
Uhhhhh, okay, get at it then.
He never returned. I called AGAIN. They came out AGAIN. And AGAIN, no resolution. And they left, AGAIN. Finally, I got sick of this situation, and asked for a manager. He looked up the file and stated that they couldn't find the problem, but were "looking into it". Well, I replied, then that must eliminate anything going on inside of my house? Yes. I told him I wasn't going to continue to pay for faulted service. He agreed, but they didn't take off any monies owed.
Long story short: They never found the problem in 6 months time, told me on the final visit, which was about number 15, that they couldn't find the problem and therefore weren't returning, case closed.
I immediately cancelled the service and got another service.

1) The month after I got high speed internet from them, they raised their fee by $10.00 per-month
2) They couldn't make my phone ring reliably, so people would call and wonder why I didn't answer the phone
3) After FIVE (5) visits by 2-5 techs each time, they didn't fix my problem, so I had to go back to Qwest for telephone service (I am an engineer and have designed telecom equipment, and I can assure you- they're incompetent, though friendly and well-intentioned.)
4) They raised my fee again for broadband, because now my services aren't bundled. They are unreasonable and intransigent. They do not care about anything except your money.
Try getting a credit from them - I dare ya'!
I can't wait until they have some real competition in the broadband arena.

#14317 assigned Bug
numberformat.format produces wrong results
|Reported by:
|Owned by:
|Localization, number formatting
|Triage Stage:
|Has patch:
|Needs documentation:
|Needs tests:
|Patch needs improvement:
|Easy pickings:
The problem:
>>> from django.utils.numberformat import format >>> print format(0.000000001, ',', 2) 1e-10,2
It can be fixed with using '%.2f' % number (the format string can be constructed dynamically), and then replacing the decimal separator and doing the grouping if needed. As a bonus, it is faster that way.

comment:1 Changed 6 years ago by akaariai
- Needs documentation unset
- Needs tests unset
- Patch needs improvement unset
After this patch, the working of number_format is as follows:
- if given too large number, will return it in exponent format
- if given too small a number and no decimal_pos, will return it in exponent format
- if given decimal_pos, will return the number correctly rounded
Before this patch:
- if given too large number, would return it in exponent format (possibly mangled with thousand separator), it the number was float, else in correct format.
- if given too small number and number_pos, would return the number in 1e-10,2, which is a bug
- if given too small number and no number_pos, would return the number in exponent format (possibly mangled with thousand separator)
- never did any rounding.
The main disadvantage of this patch is that large int, decimal and string numbers will be returned in exponent format, whereas before they were returned in correct format. Also, small numbers passed as strings when not using number_pos would be correctly returned. Now they are returned in exponent format.
So, all in all, the behavior is more consistent now, as any number passed in, no matter in what type, will be returned in same format. On the other hand, this means loss of correct formatting for some number types. If correct formatting for large numbers passed as strings or decimals is wanted, it gets a bit messy to achieve that and correct decimal_pos handling at the same time. It would at least require different formatting paths for strings and other types.
A simple fix for the bug described in the original report is to test if 'e' is in unicode(number) and if it is, return the e format directly...
Oh, BTW after this patch number formatting should be a bit faster (0% to almost 50% depending on what is being formatted). 1/3 of time is used in testing settings. (It seems a bit strange to me that number_format is testing any settings, but that is another matter.)
comment:2 Changed 6 years ago by akaariai
- Has patch set
- Needs documentation set
- Needs tests set
- Patch needs improvement set
- Triage Stage changed from Unreviewed to Design decision needed
The proposed patch above does not work correctly. Decimal(10100) is formatted in floating point precision.
Formatting every type passed in in a way that always results in correct formatting is messy, and will perform poorly. For example large float passed in needs to either be casted to decimal, and after that back to string, or the exponent form needs to be transformed directly to string, which is slow and error prone. To make things worse, the formatting will change depending on underlying C library (http://docs.python.org/library/functions.html#float).
So, to solve this ticket, one possibility is just check that if unicode(number) has e in it, return it directly. This way everything else will work, giving right result, except for large floats (will return 1.2e+100), small floats (will return 1.2e-100), or small decimals (again will return 1.2e-100). It is possible to fix the small numbers by using '%.(decimal_pos)f', but this will do rounding. This means that decimals and floats are rounded, while strings are not. Still, it is not wise to use '%.(decimal_pos)f' when handling large numbers (Decimal(10100) or large numbers passed in as strings) will return the number in floating point precision.
As said, it is possible to get almost any case to work if enough special casing is done. But it will require much code and will probably be much slower than the current code, at least for some cases.
I would say the best solution at least for now is to return the number in exponent format if that is what unicode(number) returns. Then document that this is how things work. This is backwards incompatible as the expectation is currently that any number is formatted in non-exponent format. However, this is not how things actually work. Still one possibility is to cast everything as float and if the result has e in it, return it directly. After that continue as now. This way number formatting is most consistent...
Some code to show the problems:
from decimal import Decimal as d >>> str(10000000000000000000000000000000000000.0) '1e+37' # Wrong result. >>> str(10000000000000000000000000000000000000) '10000000000000000000000000000000000000' # ints work correctly >>> str(d('10000000000000000000000000000000000000.000000000001')) '10000000000000000000000000000000000000.000000000001' # as do decimals >>> '%.2f' % d('10000000000000000000000000000000000000.000000000001') '9999999999999999538762658202121142272.00' # formatting large decimals using '%.nf' is bad idea. >>> str(d('0.00000000000000000000000000001')) '1E-29' # small decimals do not work correctly >>> '%.2f' % d('0.00000000000000000000000000001') '0.00' # for small decimals this is a nice way >>> '%.2f' % d('0.666') '0.67' # and we get rounding >>> str(d('0.666')) '0.666' # but if we want convert this string to 2 decimal_pos format, it will be messy with rounding >>> float('inf') 'inf' # just a reminder that there are still more possibilities...
Still one more thing: when considering alternatives, it is good to remember that this is very performance sensitive area. After all the standard template rendering benchmark is to render large table of numbers, and for a reason too.

I can't duplicate this error. I've used Django vr.1.3 and vr.1.2 to achieve the same error, but in all cases I've drawn correct results.

I am marking this accepted as there is a definite bug:
In [1]: from django.utils.numberformat import format In [2]: format(0.00000000000099, ',', 2) Out[2]: u'9,9e'
An idea for solving this ticket without too much complications: large numbers are returned in exponent format if str(number) contains 'e' in it - this is, floats get returned in exponent format, other numbers in decimal format. Small numbers are truncated to the decimal places (rounding happens except for strings). So, you would get something like this
> format('0.666', ',', 2) OUT: 0,66 > format(0.666, ',', 2) OUT: 0,67 > format(decimal(1e37), ',', 2) OUT: 10000000000000000000000000000000000000,00 > format(float(1e37), ',', 2) OUT: 1e37 > format(float(1e-37), ',', 2) OUT: 0,00 > format(decimal(1e-37), ',', 2) OUT: 0,00
I think the above might be straightforward to code and would get rid of the worst inconsistencies. Comments?

Illinois Public Law Research Paper No. 13-56
We study the effect of damage caps adopted in the 1990s and 2000s on medical malpractice claim rates and payouts. Prior studies found some evidence that caps reduce payout/claim, but mixed and weak evidence on whether caps reduce paid claim rates and payout per physician. However, most prior studies do not allow for the gradual phase-in of damage caps, which usually apply only to lawsuits filed after the reform's effective date, or only to injuries after the effective date. Once we allow for phase-in, we find strong evidence that damage caps reduce both claim rates and payout per claim, with a large combined impact on payout per physician. The drop in claim rates is concentrated in claims with larger payouts – the ones that would be most affected by a damages cap. Stricter caps have larger effects. Some prior studies also find a large impact of tort reforms other than damage caps. Once we allow for phase-in, we find that these other reforms have no significant impact on either claim rates or payout per claim.

Remember Inktober?
What began as a creative exercise for Jake Parker in 2009 has since been adopted by artists worldwide, thanks in no small part to social media. Beginning October 1, if you see the hashtag #Inktober in your Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr or other social channels, you know why.
I discovered Inktober about a week or so into October of last year. I tried to play a little catch-up with the project and really enjoyed getting back into drawing on a semi-regular basis. I drew a variety, from comic book characters to my pup, Missy.
But this year, I'm approaching Inktober with more of a plan. Because of the obvious connections to the month of October, my drawings will all be of the monster kind. Classic horror icons, contemporary frights and maybe some original creations will be my subjects.
And I would love to hear from you. Throughout the month of Inktober, let me know what monsters and horror characters you'd like me to draw. You can connect with me through various social channels (see below). I'll try and incorporate as many into the series as possible.
Be sure to follow me. Who knows? I may even Periscope a drawing session or three.
Happy Inktober, everyone!

OHI is almost trading at an all time high and pays less in dividends then it did back in 1998. IMHO this will not end well in the future for shareholder.
All time highs? You quote the 1998 dividend but not its share price. At least put some effort into your whining.
Don't be so lazy and do your own DD. Stop expecting your helicopter parents to do everything for and accept some responsibility. Your generation has never played outside and lives in the basement all day expecting stuff to be handed to you. You need to learn how to look someone in the eyes, shake their hand and actually string some words together. One last thing, buy a belt and pull your damn pants up son.
Based on what? Your lack of news, facts or even a theory. Stick to your paper route, and go clean up your trailer.
You sound like a scorn investor that can't handle the truth. Facts are facts bro and if you want to buy REITs trading at all time highs, yielding less today then at any other time in the company's history you go right ahead. When interest rates start to rise I'm only suggesting that you don't want to be left holding the bag because these things will correct back to their historical yield averages.
Amazing what a little bit of knowledge about a company can create some very misleading posts. The problems that OHI had back in 1998 are completely different then today. Bottom line - to prevent fear from such problems - track the companies that are leasing the properties from OHI. Right now they are all very comfortable meaning OHI is a good investment into at least the near future.
By near future you mean interest rate hikes because believe me you don't want to be around any REITs when that starts to happen.
I think I understand your viewpoint. It's a sad day when your favorite cash cow has passed away. You won't have the oportunity to accumulate stock at $10 to $20 a share and enjoy the rewards of a high rate of return for your investment. Se la vive...or something like that.
Very good stock..............But over priced. The mid twenties is more realistic.
Looks like thadsilverfox was right. Now who is laughing.

Local nun leaving to head religious order in Texas
Published: Friday, April 20, 2007 at 7:28 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, April 20, 2007 at 10:31 a.m.
When Bishop Sam G. Jacobs told Sister Miriam Mitchell to type up her job description, she couldnt help but chuckle.
Mitchell, who serves as chancellor for the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux, spent several hours pecking away at her computer.
Once she finished, Mitchell was amazed with the final product. It not only symbolized how far shed come but also how blessed she is.
"Im so lucky to have had all the chances Ive received while working in this diocese," Mitchell said. "If it werent for the great people around here I wouldnt have ever been placed in the positions I held for so many years."
After 36 years in south Louisiana, the native of Galway, Ireland, will travel to San Antonio, Texas, on June 24 to begin her new role as General Superior of the Sisters of the Holy Spirit.
Her amazing journey has taken her from teaching in Texas to Louisiana, where she was around when the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux formed in 1977.
Mitchell arrived in Louisiana six years before when she was assigned to St. Lawrence Catholic Church Parish in Kraemer.
The 61-year-old sister still remembers how excited she was in 1971.
"Everything revolved around the church." Mitchell said. "I was placed in charge of a host of duties at the church. I relished the role and enjoyed the challenge. I was full of fresh ideas, and Ill never forget how great everyone was to me."
According to Mitchell, she thinks of Kraemer as her adopted home since it reminded her so much of the small town in Ireland where she grew up.
When Mitchell came to Kraemer, she was only 26 years old.
"There were a lot of similarities between Kraemer and Ireland that most people wouldnt think exist," Mitchell said. "The biggest thing was the sense of family I felt when I got there. It felt like I was back home."
After spending 11 years at St. Lawrence in Kraemer, Mitchell was given an incredible opportunity.
The Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux, which was still in its infancy stages, needed a director of social services. Thats when then Bishop Warren Boudreaux asked Mitchell if she would take the position.
"On July 1 of 1981 I became the director," Mitchell said. "It started small with three employees and a budget under $100,000. I stayed with that for 17 years, and then former Bishop Michael Jarrell asked me to be the chancellor in 1998."
Prior to becoming its own diocese, Mitchell recalled that Catholics in the bayou region didnt feel included because their churches were on the outskirts of the massive Archdiocese of New Orleans.
"So much of what happened in the diocese centered around the metropolitan area," Mitchell said. "Before Katrina, New Orleans had about 200 church parishes, and when we formed our diocese we had 39 church parishes."
The smaller size gave way to great opportunities that wouldnt be possible in a larger diocese like New Orleans.
"We were able to plan programs and ministries in this area," Mitchell said. "It was exciting to get things going in a small geographical area where everything was in close proximity. It was manageable, and it was great because you could get to know everybody. Thats something that you couldnt do anywhere else. At national meetings they would always be amazed at what we could do. I always told them it was because we only had 39 church parishes."
Throughout the years, Mitchell has seen many changes, but the one
constant has been the sense of family and community that has endeared her to south Louisiana.
In the next few months, Mitchell will switch roles.
Right now, as chancellor she is charged with many duties and responsibilities that include being directors of both the Archives and Historical Research Center, and Lumen Christi Retreat Center and being coordinator of victims assistance, safe environment, personnel, administration and social services.
She also works as the liaison for the bishops parish visits.
Bishop Jacobs said replacing Mitchell would be difficult.
"We wish her Gods blessings in her new position, and we thank her for her years of dedicated service to our diocese," he said.
Her new post of General Superior will find Mitchell representing her Sisters of the Holy Spirit community on national stage.
Until being elected to the post, Mitchell served as a member of the Sisters of the Holy Spirit Leadership Team.
"I will act as the president of the corporations of our various institutions," Mitchell said. "You also represent the community at public functions, and within the community we work on team leadership programs."
Although shes grateful to have received her current opportunity, she said she will miss south Louisiana tremendously.
"This (the diocese) has been my whole life," Mitchell said. "I keep teasing people by saying that this is where I grew up. This is where Ive been able to get in touch with the gifts I have and have had the ability to develop those gifts. Ive met so many amazing people, and whatever I bring to this new position will be so enriched because the chances I received by being a member of this diocese."
Bishop Jacobs will celebrate a diocesan farewell Mass for Mitchell 7 p.m. Monday, May 28, at the Cathedral of St. Francis de Sales in Houma.
Everyone is invited to attend the celebration.

I totally agree with the negative reports against the shopgoodwill.com website. Personally, I can only blame myself for subjecting myself to the deceptive way they conduct their business. Yes, their shipping charges are excessive and their handling charges are too. I do enjoy the variety of items and admit I got carried away with bidding on things I really wanted. Today, was the straw for me when I bid on and won (6) Star Wars action figures for $6.99 and ended up paying almost $23 for postage and handling. I should kick myself for agreeing to pay for it. However, I was obligated to pay because I accepted their terms and unlike them, I fear God. It is really sad how dishonest people/organizations are. I've been on this earth 62 years and it still amazes me the length people will go to steal from people. This is for you shopgoodwill: "What does it profit a man to gain the world and lose his soul"? One day the CEO and other big wigs at shopgoodwill, Walmart and all the big companies that steal from hardworking people will have to give account of what they've done.
Bottom line: I won't be bidding on shopgoodwill anymore. Additionally, the Santa Ana location, where I won the items I mentioned above, can forget the email reply they sent today because I did not believe a word in it.

Article 23. Public awareness and participation
1. The Parties shall:
(a) Promote and facilitate public awareness, education and participation concerning the safe transfer,
handling and use of living modified organisms in relation to the conservation and sustainable use of
biological diversity, taking also into account risks to human health. In doing so, the Parties shall
cooperate, as appropriate, with other States and international bodies;
(b) Endeavour to ensure that public awareness and education encompass access to information on living
modified organisms identified in accordance with this Protocol that may be imported.
2. The Parties shall, in accordance with their respective laws and regulations, consult the public in the decision-making process regarding living modified organisms and shall make the results of such decisions available to the public, while respecting confidential information in accordance with Article 21.
3. Each Party shall endeavour to inform its public about the means of public access to the Biosafety Clearing-House.
587. Article 23 provides for a mix of mandatory and discretionary actions that Parties to the Protocol are expected to undertake relating to:
the provision of information on LMOs to the public (Article 23(1));
public participation in LMO-related decision-making processes (Article 23(2));
provision of information to the public about access to the Biosafety Clearing-House (Article 23(3)).
588. Article 23 is best understood in the context of Principle 10 of the 1992 Rio Declaration on Environment and Development (Box 40). Principle 10 articulates what are now known as the three "pillars" of public participation: (1) the right of citizens to information; (2) their right to participate in environmental decisions which affect them; and (3) their access to mechanisms of redress and justice when their rights are violated.
589. It should also be noted that Article 14(1)(a) of the CBD encourages public participation in:
environmental impact assessment of proposed projects that are likely to have significant adverse effects on biological diversity.
Environmental issues are best handled with the participation of all concerned citizens, at the relevant level. At the national level, each individual shall have appropriate access to information concerning the environment that is held by public authorities, including information on hazardous materials and activities in their communities, and the opportunity to participate in decision-making processes. States shall facilitate and encourage public awareness and participation by making information widely available. Effective access to judicial and administrative proceedings, including redress and remedy, shall be provided.
1. The Parties shall:
(a) Promote and facilitate public awareness, education and participation concerning the safe transfer,
handling and use of living modified organisms in relation to the conservation and sustainable use of
biological diversity, taking also into account risks to human health. In doing so, the Parties shall
cooperate, as appropriate, with other States and international bodies;
(b) Endeavour to ensure that public awareness and education encompass access to information on living
modified organisms identified in accordance with this Protocol that may be imported.
590. Article 23(1) does not explicitly require Parties to make specific information available to the public. The obligation is somewhat softer. Parties are required to "promote and facilitate" public awareness, education and awareness regarding LMOs, and are to "endeavour" to ensure public awareness and education on LMOs that may be imported.
591. The phrase "promote and facilitate" would indicate that Parties intended to commit themselves to encourage and make easier the flow of information to the public concerning LMO transfers, handling and use, through the establishment of such mechanisms as may be deemed appropriate or necessary. Article 23(1)(a) indicates that such mechanisms should be focused on three main areas of public information:
public awareness – e.g. through the use of media and other means of general information distribution to the public;
public education – e.g. through general public information distribution mechanisms and specific public education programmes through the formal and nonformal educational system; and
public participation – e.g. through the provision of appropriate mechanisms for public feedback and input into decisionmaking and regulatory processes relating to LMO transfers, handling and use.
592. Article 23(1)(b) expressly indicates that public awareness and education mechanisms should cover and provide access to information pertaining to LMOs "that may be imported". A significant omission from Article 23(1)(b), however, is a reference to "public participation". This would imply that Parties have not bound themselves to provide, or endeavour to provide, public participation mechanisms with respect to LMOs that may be imported. This gap, however, seems to be addressed in Article 23(2).
593. A major difference between subparagraphs (a) and (b) of Article 23(1) is the level of obligation to which Parties have agreed to be bound. Article 23(1)(a) requires Parties to "promote and facilitate"– i.e. encourage and make easier through the setting up of appropriate or necessary mechanisms – public awareness, education, and participation with respect to LMOs. The use of such a phrase clearly indicates that the establishment and implementation of such mechanisms for promotion and facilitation are mandatory. Article 23(1)(b), on the other hand, uses the word "endeavour" to refer to the obligation to ensure that public awareness and education mechanisms cover and include access to information on imported LMOs. The word "endeavour" suggests that the Parties must attempt or strive to ensure such inclusion of access to information on imported LMOs within the scope of public awareness and education mechanisms relating to LMO transfers, handling, and use.
2. The Parties shall, in accordance with their respective laws and regulations, consult the public in the decision-making process regarding living modified organisms and shall make the results of such decisions available to the public, while respecting confidential information in accordance with Article 21.
594. Article 23(2) of the Protocol lays down affirmative obligations on Parties to:
consult the public in the decision-making process regarding LMOs; and
make the results of such decisions available to the public. The obligation to consult the public applies generally to all decision-making processes regarding LMOs, including the making of decisions on imports of LMOs.
595. The obligation to consult with the public, however, is qualified by two factors:
consultation with the public must be "in accordance with [the Party's] laws and regulations"; and
it must respect "confidential information in accordance with Article 21" of the Protocol.
596. This means that the scope, extent, and methodologies for public participation are subject to national laws and regulations governing public participation in each Party. Furthermore, the information to be provided to the public to enable them to effectively participate in LMO-related decision-making processes must not include information that has been identified as "confidential information" pursuant to Article 21 of the Protocol.
597. Article 23(2) does not provide specific guidance on the public consultation mechanisms to be adopted in decision-making processes and on how to make results of decisions on LMOs available to the public. This effectively leaves it up to the Parties to decide how this obligation should be implemented in their own national contexts. These issues are addressed in some other existing regional and international agreements (see Box 41). Possible elements may be grouped in three phases:
Notice to all concerned stakeholders, in a language understood by them and through media to which they have access.
Public consultations, as a way to secure wide input into the decisions that are to be made. These could include public hearings in certain cases, particularly where there is public concern about the proposed measures.
Consideration of public concerns in the decision-making phase following consultation.
The linkage between the provision of information to the public and public participation in decision-making relating to environmental matters has long been recognized as an essential element in ensuring environmentally- sustainable development. Aside from Principle 10 of the Rio Declaration, recent international environmental conventions that incorporate public participation provisions include:
the 1991 UN/ECE Convention on Environmental Impact Assessment in a Transboundary Context –Article 2(2) and (6); Article 4(2);
the 1992 UN Framework Convention on Climate Change – Article 6(a)(iii);
the 1992 UN/ECE Convention on the Transboundary Effects of Industrial Accidents – Article 9(2);
the 1994 UN Convention to Combat Desertification in those Countries Experiencing Serious Drought and/or Desertification, Particularly in Africa – Article 3(a); Article 4.2(e) and (f).
In addition, the most recent and comprehensive international agreement relating to public participation is the 1998 UN/ECE Convention on Access to Information, Public Participation in Decision-Making, and Access to Justice in Environmental Matters (the 'Aarhus Convention'). This treaty outlines and effectively provides guidance on how public participation should be realized in the context of environmental decision-making processes. Among the principles contained in its provisions on public participation are that public participation must be "timely, effective, adequate and formal, and contain information, notification, dialogue, consideration, response". It establishes obligations that Parties to the Aarhus Convention must comply with in providing for timely, adequate, and effective public participation. These include requirements concerning public notification, timing, provision of relevant information, provision of opportunities for public comment, responses to such comments, and communication.
Article 6(11) of the Aarhus Convention expressly makes applicable the provisions relating to public participation in Article 6 thereof to "decisions on whether to permit the deliberate release of genetically modified organisms into the environment". Implementation of this provision is to be done "within the framework of [the Party's] national law".
The public participation elements contained in Article 6 of the Aarhus Convention are outlined below:
Parties are required to guarantee public participation in decision-making in matters that have a potentially significant environmental impact;
Notification to the public about the decision-making to be done must be "adequate, timely, and effective" and lays out the minimum contents for such notification;
Time frames for public participation procedures;
Public participation must take place early in the decision-making and must not be pro-forma;
Public participation procedures must encourage exchanges of information between permit applicants and the public before the permit application is acted upon. Explanations regarding the permit application must be provided and dialogue among all stakeholders must be encouraged;
Public authorities must provide the public concerned with access to all information relevant to the decision-making, free of charge and as soon as available, pursuant to the minimum contents laid down in this paragraph;
Procedures for public participation should include mechanisms that allow public participation in writing or through public hearings, and which allow the submission of any comments, information, analyses or opinions. The public should be free to determine which particular piece of information is relevant for purposes of decision-making;
Public opinion as gauged through the procedures for public participation must be taken into account in the decision. Public participation must not be pro-forma;
The public must be informed of the final decision promptly, have access to the decision, and must be provided with the reasons and considerations resulting in the decision;
Public authorities must ensure that public participation in accordance with paragraphs 2 to 9 above must be done in the event of any reconsideration or changes in the activities to which the decision applied;
Work is underway under the Aarhus Convention to elaborate the requirements of public participation in decisions concerning deliberate releases of LMOs into the environment. A double track approach is being followed: on one hand, draft guidelines have been adopted by the first Meeting of the Parties in October 2002 to elaborate public participation requirements; at the same time, a Working Group on GMOs has been established to examine possible legally binding options, including a draft amendment of the Convention to develop the application of the Convention in the field of GMOs.
(See: UNECE, The Aarhus Convention: An Implementation Guide, 87–122 (2000). For more information, see http://www.unece.org/env/pp/acig.htm).
3. Each Party shall endeavour to inform its public about the means of public access to the Biosafety Clearing-House.
598. Article 23(3) of the Protocol requires Parties to take steps to inform the public about the means of access to information contained in the Biosafety Clearing-House (Article 20).

La Sportiva FC Eco 2.0 GTX
Where to Buy
A well-made walking shoe that provides sufficient…
Source: bought it new
Price Paid: $160 at MEC in Canada
A well-made walking shoe that provides sufficient support for hiking and for people who pronate. Goretex liner guarantees waterproof. Flat footbed takes orthotics and the shoe has a sufficiently deep footbed that (with stock insole removed) that there's lots of room for the orthotic.
- Strong support
- Stiff, supportive Vibram sole
- Waterproofing rocks
- This year's model fits different, larger.
- This year the heel does not "lock in" easily
- Quality last year dropped from two years ago; this year?
- Hot (waterproof, remember?) and sole slippery when wet
A well-made walking shoe with a stiff Vibram sole that provides sufficient support for hiking with a small pack (for a major pack, stick to a boot) and great torsional support for those who pronate. And is waterproof to boot.
Flat footbed takes orthotics and the shoe has a sufficiently deep footbed (with stock insole removed) to accommodate orthotics (most shoes don't). Moved to this when Garmont's quality took a nose-dive; I've since bought a pair of these and the boot (same model) once a year (three years now). They appear to last only that long, unfortunately.
Speaking of quality, it appears each year's model uses a nubuck leather in the forefoot that looks identical to last year's but seems to wear faster. I suspect cheaper quality, possibly thinner. Still have previous pairs to compare. Stop doing this! I ditched Garmont because they kept finding ways to make the product cheaper.
The rubber toe cap on the last two year's models started to lift and peel back at the edges behind the toe, and last year's model separated along the inside edge of the shoe just past the instep, where the upper meets the sole.
The sole is good: Vibram has good grip on soil, but does slip easily on wet rock. Slippery on cold surfaces, especially ice, but they're not sold for winter wear. Not the sticky (but soft) sole of La Sportiva's approach shoes, but on concrete in town they wear really well. I suspect the sole compound was optimized for this.
Wide forefoot and toebox — just what I want for hiking, especially given that it's a bit warm. Narrow heel fit, and design used to really lock down the heel. This year's model, however, appears to fit differently — larger than last year's model same size - and I find it's hard to get the heel locked down. I have to really cinch down the laces but the heel still lifts, which may cause blisters this year.
Comfortable, but not especially breathable: in mid-summer this shoe is hot. It is waterproof: no more wet feet when you get out of the tent into morning dew or walk through rain-soaked grass and bush. I wear with nylon/poly hiking socks & liner socks: between that and the room in the toebox, I've never had a blister and find they're not too hot til you get up to 90 degrees F.
So: a good supportive shoe for spring/fall hikes and summer hikes if it isn't too hot, but the change in fit makes me wonder whether La Sportiva is following other manufacturers that have outsourced manufacturing to Asia. No one outsources for quality! Too many brands are no longer interested in actually making quality shoes. They want to trade on past reputation and sell shoes made by contract manufacturers who know the purchasing agent will move the contract next year for a few bucks less.
And if the contract manufacturer can make something acceptable to purchasing (who appear at most brand companies to care only about cost) but somehow skimp on quality a bit they'll make more. Worst case: the brand suffers, but who knows the name of the actual manufacturer? They don't wear it. And they know they may lose the account next year anyhow if someone else offers to make it for a buck less. The range and overall quality of La Sportiva's line suggests they're the exception: either still making their own product or at least managing quality aggressively.
I keep buying these, but hope La Sportiva will be really vigilant in monitoring quality. Last year's model was near perfect; this year's seems to fit differently, suggesting a new manufacturing plant, but that's only a guess. If there was a change, please revert to last year's model for future design and fit.
Thanks for sharing a helpful review of these La Sportivas, J Thompson. I hope future models continue to fit and perform well. It could be very helpful for readers to see some pictures of your shoes to see how they've been wearing down too. Thanks!
