AbstractThe focus of this article is on entropy and Markov processes. We study the properties of functionals which are invariant with respect to monotonic transformations and analyze two invariant "additivity" properties: (i) existence of a monotonic transformation which makes the functional additive with respect to the joining of independent systems and (ii) existence of a monotonic transformation which makes the functional additive with respect to the partitioning of the space of states. All Lyapunov functionals for Markov chains which have properties (i) and (ii) are derived. We describe the most general ordering of the distribution space, with respect to which all continuous-time Markov processes are monotonic (the Markov order). The solution differs significantly from the ordering given by the inequality of entropy growth. For inference, this approach results in a convex compact set of conditionally "most random" distributions.
Keywords: Markov process; Lyapunov function; entropy functionals; attainable region; MaxEnt; inference

Deployment of Wireless Sensor Networks in Logistics - Potential, Requirements, and a Testbed
With the growing demand for extensive monitoring of transport processes in logistics and approaches for an event-based management of logistics processes, wireless sensor network technology has become a promising technology for this domain. In the first part of this paper, the authors describe such application possibilities for wireless sensor networks in logistics and focus on supply chain event management as one particularly promising application area, which is often neglected. Afterwards, they present first findings regarding the requirements to be considered for efficient application of wireless sensor networks in logistics. They especially differentiate the design decisions into decisions for the design-time and the run-time of a wireless sensor network deployment in the logistics domain.

Motte avoids arbitration
The Cardinals announced yesterday that they had avoided arbitration with their closer Jason Motte. The deal, a two-year deal buying out his final arbitration year, is worth $12 million plus incentives. After making just $1.95 million last year, Motte filed for $5.5 million in arbitration while the Cardinals filed at $4.5 million. But everyone knew that while this year would be a relative bargain at either of those prices, next … Continue reading

Long and expensive deal for Wainwright
"It's going to be long," he said. "It's going to be expensive." That was a quote from John Mozeliak in regards to an extension for Cardinals' starting pitcher Adam Wainwright. News about a potential extension for the team's star pitcher started coming out over the weekend at the annual Winter Warmup festival. The two sides began preliminary discussions near the end of last season and have continued to have a … Continue reading

If there was just one single ounce of greatness left in him, he was going to find it … Continue reading

OUR PICK OF THE WEEK - Saphir Renovateur
Here at Styleternity, I'm all about that long lasting sartorial quality. As somebody caught up in this whole #menswear thing I think we sometimes attach too much importance to the 'next' big purchase. The problem with this obsession is that your closet fills up with a whole bunch of stank product that you thought it was an appropriate idea to purchase 'at the time' while the things that are heavy in your day to day rotation get worn into the ground without proper maintenance/alteration.
Nowhere is the problem more apparent than footwear: the foundation of any solid kit, fresh footwear sets the scene for a correspondingly great outfit. Unfortunately many of us lack the time and patience to really care for our shoes the way we should, and while Saphir Renovateur will not make a regular and thorough cleaning of your favorite C & J unnecessary its a pretty good temporary fix when you don't have the time to stomp out a proper shoe shine.
Made with mink oil, the Saphir renovateur is the very very next level version of an all points leather treatment. Throw that ratchet Zanolin Kiwi shit into your nearest incinerator because Saphir is the benchmark when it comes to footwear maintenance. This oil based cleaner re-hydrates and cleans leather while simultaneously giving it a low matte shine. Used alone its a great temporary fix or as part of a routine (with separate polish and buffing) will result in that glass like patina the lads at The Armoury have been on for some time already.

Skip to comments.North Carolina #1 for snake bites
Posted on 08/10/2010 7:17:54 AM PDT by JoeProBono
MT. HOLLY, NC - Folks living in North Carolina have a better chance of getting bitten by a snake than people living anywhere else, according to new research.
North Carolina's estimated rate of snake bites is nearly five times the national average.
The number one reason for the relatively high rate of bites is a snake found in every single North Carolina county -- the copperhead.
Copperheads are poisonous -- although snake experts say the better term is venomous -- and last year there were 228 reported bites in the state. The copperhead is found in Charlotte and all over the Charlotte area.
Grover Barfield, known as the Snakeman of Gaston County, offered us tips on avoiding getting bitten by a copperhead.
"I tell people, once it's 65, 70 degrees don't go outside barefooted. Don't wear flip flops, and watch where you put your hands and feet," said Barfield, who runs the Carolinas Reptile Rescue and Education Center.
Barfield says copperheads are most likely to be out and about from this time of the year until around October or November.
Barfield says he's been bitten twice by copperheads, and it wasn't fun. One time his hand swelled to the size of a softball. He says most hospitals carry antivenom for the bite, but it is very expensive.
Barfield showed WBTV two other venomous snakes found in our general area (to see them click on the video).
One is the timber rattlesnake, which is very rare but has been known to be in Mecklenburg and other counties in our area.
Another is the cottonmouth, which Barfield says is found in Lancaster, South Carolina, and Rockingham, North Carolina, as well as points east and south of both towns.
The cottonmouth is venomous, but Barfield says water snakes that are found in places like Lake Norman and Lake Wylie are not true cottonmouths and are not venomous.
A NINE-year-old cat has used up one of her lives after getting a venomous copperhead snake wrapped around her collar with her owners too afraid to untangle the serpent for fear of being bitten.
Owner Wendy Wallis said her cat Jelly wandered back in to their property, which borders Sorell Creek north of Hobart, about 11.30am yesterday carrying the snake with her.
She called wildlife rescuers who removed the snake.
The cat picture has completely freaked me out. If it was my kitty, I would have put on thick gloves and used tongs to get it off.
Rattle snakes will almost always warn you of their presence and that they are unhappy with your's. Copperheads are silent.
I lived in NC for a few years and the very first time I mowed my lawn, I ran over a copperhead that I hadn't seen with the mower. From then on, lawns were always mowed wearing long pants and boots. I saw dozens of copperheads over that two year period. Very beautiful snake...from a safe distance.
I think I would have removed the snake's head with pruning shears.
Did the blades get it or was it low enough in the grass to sneak under?
Reptile rescue?Natural habitat?
If humans are going to live there the snakes' numbers have to be reduced;228 snakebites reported is entirely too many.
If these were 228 dogbite victims the various agencies would be demanding more authority to destroy the biter's breed or species.
Okay, was thinking of moving to Chapel Hill...maybe not??
Dang. That's one "cool" cat. I spent many years working the African continent from Capetown to Cairo. The only snakes I ever saw were either dead, or in the process of being dead, assisted by angry villagers. The only time I ever had a problem with them was right here at home. Got bitten in my own front yard. Copperheads are a regular feature on our property. I'm finding way too many shed skins in the flower beds these days.
I heard it go through the blades and the mower lurched a bit. I was wearing tennis shoes and shorts at the time and the grass was very high as we had just moved in and it hadn't been cut in some time. I went inside and changed before continuing.
I would have clipped the collar behind the cat's neck.
Separated at birth?
Really...? I was down there recently and saw neither? Am I missing something here?
I love that copperhead - I have two of their likenesses on display at home... which, of course makes me a suspected domestic terrorist.
Do it anyway.... just carry a big stick... or a shotgun.
If it were me the change would have had to include a fresh pair of undies. :)
Were it me, the changes would have been in zip code, area code, and tighty-whities.
The ophidiophobia here is very sad.
Nice poster - it would be cool to have one for the wall!
Poor 'journalism'....the term is "antivenin".
A friend of mine was bit by a Copperhead this past spring...looked out the door and saw his daughters puppy trying to "play" with the snake. He reached for the dog and it struck him in his hand....spent 4 days in the hospital.
Yeah, it's crazy..sissies should just leave snakes the hell alone..people are generally out of their minds with unreasoning fear..
A Marine Colonel, C.O. of an A-6 squadron at MCAS Cherry Point NC, got struck by one in is garage one Sunday morning. It ticked him off, so he went into the house to get a handgun and kill it. In the mean time it had repositioned and struck him again in the same leg as he reentered his garage. He almost lost his leg due to the venom-caused necrosis around the wounds.
Moral of the story: Don't mess with copperhead snakes, and maintain a visual on them at all times when you know they're one in the area.
I once had one in my carport and almost stepped on it, it didn't move, ran around to the front door to get my husband and by then it had moved to the back door. They don't scare and they will go after you! I watch where I walk, especially at night.
We just got back from taking the dog swimming and scooted out of there once it got dark, there is a copper head that hangs out on the bank.
I've had a lot of close calls with snakes and tend to give them the benefit of the doubt most of the time. There have been so many times they could have struck me and didn't that it seems their attitude is really centered on defense and self-preservation.
But they do provoke easily, and you certainly can't tolerate them around kids and animals.
We went to play tennis one afternoon and a copperhead had staked out the tennis court to get some warmth. When we tried to sweep it off the court, it became very aggressive. I was pretty much forced to kill it, if we were going to get to hit some tennis balls.
We lived across the street from a major river, lots of trees and a golf course. It was snake country.
I don't freak out on snakes. We have a Ball Python as a pet, can't say that I love it but it doesn't bother me. We've also had non poisonous snakes around the house, fine with me, they eat rodents, but Copperheads, are another story. We have lots of woods behind my house, my dogs LOVE the woods, a Copperhead bite would kill them.
"I would have put on thick gloves and used tongs to get it off."
A couple of weeks ago my next-door neighbor used a shovel to kill a copperhead that had gotten itself wedged into a tight spot between some garden edging and the house foundation.
His wife used a pair of kitchen tongs to pull it out.
Maybe, maybe not. I've know many dogs that survived bites to the nose (the typical presentation) by rattlesnakes. They suffered a lot of pain though.

SUBMITTED: Thursday, August 01, 2013POSTED: Thursday, August 01, 2013
Dte is putting other peoples bill amount if people are not paying and double billing. Dte billed me twice for the same amount. I paid off my grandmother's account then switched the utilities in my name. On July 25th I get a phone call from DTE recording telling me to call, so I called and was told that I had a past due payment of 152.41, I told the young lady that was paid in full. So she wanted me to fax or go to the office and show proof, I told her I'm not going to be inconvenienced because they ripping people off. Thank GOD i have all account numbers and knew to check my grandmothers account. People need to really start paying attention to their bills and complain if they know DTE is being shady, they literally have much power, taking advantage over people and their crooked and unfair.

You have some conflicting information in your report....

".Dte's budget plan is unfair and is not a plan to help people save or to help us try and keep our service on.This budget plan actually makes your bill higher because not only do you have to pay you bill that is due,but now you have to pay the budget pan amount,so this actually increases your bill."
Do YOU want on the budget plan of NOT?
Can't have it both ways.
If, as you say, they are charging you on the basis of your income and adding on your neighbors bills to yours, you should report them to your states regulatory commission.
Prove that Dte is acting fraudulently and scamming and discriminating against the weak and vulnerable.
Or, are you saying they have singled you out to inflict all these things on?
You have to follow THEIR rules for paying your bill and whether or not they will offer YOU their budget plan...which you don't know whether you want it or not. You are NOT allowed to tell them how to run their business....bet that comes as a surprise to you.
I have a strong suspicion they are charging you fairly and it is not their fault or responsibility to charge you less because of your financial situation. They also don't "extort" people who have to seek emergency funds....the socialists.
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?

Activation of the small guanosine triphosphatase H-Ras by the exchange factor Son of Sevenless (SOS) is an important hub for signal transduction. Multiple layers of regulation, through protein and membrane interactions, govern activity of SOS. We characterized the specific activity of individual SOS molecules catalyzing nucleotide exchange in H-Ras. Single-molecule kinetic traces revealed that SOS samples a broad distribution of turnover rates through stochastic fluctuations between distinct, long-lived (more than 100 seconds), functional states. The expected allosteric activation of SOS by Ras-guanosine triphosphate (GTP) was conspicuously absent in the mean rate. However, fluctuations into highly active states were modulated by Ras-GTP. This reveals a mechanism in which functional output may be determined by the dynamical spectrum of rates sampled by a small number of enzymes, rather than the ensemble average.

Visitors to his classroom are impressed by his extensive knowledge of his material and his ability to make connections to his students' everyday lives.
Fluhr conducted an innovative project that involved the entire school and facilitated learning across the curriculum. He arranged to have a Smurf figurine and a photograph of all the students at Lehman Intermediate sent into space, where the photograph orbited on the International Space Station for four months. Students tracked the station as it circled the Earth and learned about the space program of the U.S. and Russia.
The project engaged students and teachers, and generated excitement across disciplines, providing inspiration for a variety of lessons including studies of the geography of Russia and the application of mathematics to analyzing distances traveled.

In his remarks, Mr Gurría spoke of the work undertaken by the OECD and UNCTAD with developing countries aiming to define a shared understanding of healthy investment climates. The Secretary-General underlined that investment expands the economy's productive capacity, drives job creation and economic growth, promotes innovation and trade, and ensures essential infrastructure.
In his speech delivered at the China Development Forum, Mr Gurria described the growing OECD collaboration with China, highlighting the benefits for China, the Organisation and for the world economy as a whole.
In this seminar organised by the Norwegian government, Mr. Gurría reminded that achieving ambitious climate stabilisation goals is possible provided all major emitting countries and sectors act immediately. He underlined that this will require significant changes in how we consume and how we produce but doing nothing is not an option, because the costs and consequences are a multiple of the known costs of action.
At the worldwide launch of this report in Oslo, hosted by Norway's Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg, OECD Secretary-General reminded that solutions to the key environmental challenges are available, achievable and affordable, especially when compared to the expected economic growth and the costs and consequences of inaction.
In his speech, Mr. Gurría presented the climate change policies that should be put into place to limit further deterioration. Answering the crucial question "who pays for it", he noted that the countries who provoked climate change have a greater capacity to pay than those who joined the group of large emitters more recently.
In his remarks, Mr. Gurría reminded that the climate is already changing and he called for immediate concerted action and a real political commitment to combat its worst impacts. He mentioned the range of economic policy options available to address this major problem.
In his presentation of the OECD/WTO report "Aid for Trade at a Glance", Mr. Gurría noted that effective and systematic monitoring of aid flows will strengthen mutual accountability and will provide incentives to improve the impact of donors' assistance.
In his speech given at the OECD forum 2007, Mr. Gurría emphasised that access to reliable and safe water is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity. The OECD is working to develop policy ideas and identify best practices to assist countries meet their water needs.
In his address, Mr. Gurría highlighted the alarming outlook for growth in carbon dioxide emissions. He also underscored the need for collective action in developing innovative and market-based solutions in order to foster competitiveness and opportunities for growth.

Peoria Chick-fil-A introduces a first for the franchise
PEORIA, Ariz. — Here's something you don't see every day at a fast-food restaurant.
The Chick-fil-A at 83rd Avenue and Bell Road has become the first in the franchise to install a mouthwash dispenser in its restrooms.
"My owner had gone to a few of very nice, five-star restaurants and seen mouthwash in the restrooms and (concluded) that it would be something very nice to offer our customers," said employee Ashley Eleanor Davis. "He found a place that sells the dispensers, and we installed them, and they're there!"
Davis said when a person comes out of the restrooms, she can always tell that they've used the mouthwash because of their "minty fresh" smell.
It's been a big hit with customers.
"Usually when they are getting ready to leave, they pull managers over and thank them for having mouthwash in the restroom and tell them that it's a really neat experience," Davis said.
One customer, Alan Smith, said that the dispenser is a "very progressive" idea. Billy North said that it could be a "great innovation for the fast food industry, and that it would be "especially (handy) if I have to go to a business meeting after lunch."
Davis said she thinks the idea is a service to customers that is completely in line with the company image.
"We have very much servants' hearts," she said. "We just like to make our customers feel very welcome, very at home, and to give them an experience where they feel the love of Christ through what we do."

What is understanding and how does it differ from knowledge? How can we determine the big ideas worth understanding? Why is understanding an important teaching goal, and how do we know when students have attained it? How can we create a rigorous and engaging curriculum that focuses on understanding and leads to improved student performance in today's high-stakes, standards-based environment?
Authors Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe answer these and many other questions in this second edition of Understanding by Design. Drawing on feedback from thousands of educators around the world who have used the UbD framework since its introduction in 1998, the authors have greatly revised and expanded their original work to guide educators across the K-16 spectrum in the design of curriculum, assessment, and instruction. With an improved UbD Template at its core, the book explains the rationale of backward design and explores in greater depth the meaning of such key ideas as essential questions and transfer tasks. Readers will learn why the familiar coverage- and activity-based approaches to curriculum design fall short, and how a focus on the six facets of understanding can enrich student learning. With an expanded array of practical strategies, tools, and examples from all subject areas, the book demonstrates how the research-based principles of Understanding by Design apply to district frameworks as well as to individual units of curriculum.
Combining provocative ideas, thoughtful analysis, and tested approaches, this new edition of Understanding by Design offers teacher-designers a clear path to the creation of curriculum that ensures better learning and a more stimulating experience for students and teachers alike.

Map out your weeknight meals with these recipes from Mark Bittman. Here, he makes four dishes that require only one grocery list: Stewed vegetables, tomatoes and beans with couscous, grilled chicken with cilantro and lime, poached fish in ratatouille, and chicken enchiladas.
Shopping list:
2 whole chickens
2 fish steaks
20 tomatillos
4 medium poblano chiles
2 or 3 serrano chiles (optional)
6 onions
Red onion
2 red or green bell peppers
2 cans whole tomatoes
1 ½ to 2 lbs. eggplant
8 cups chickpeas or cannellini beans
2 zucchinis
½ cup kalamata olives
Fresh parsley or dill
Lime juice
Olive oil
Vegetable stock
Peanut oil (or grapeseed)
Queso fresco
Black pepper
Mexican or other oregano
Crushed red pepper (optional)
- 1 cup white or whole wheat couscous
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 onions, chopped
- 2 red or green bell peppers, chopped
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 2 28-ounce can whole tomatoes, with their juice
- 8 cups cooked or canned chickpeas or cannellini beans, drained
- 2 zucchini, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil, for garnish
Baking Directions:
1. Put the couscous in a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid and add 1 1/2 cups of water and a generous pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil. 2. Put the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When it's hot, add the onion, bell pepper and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. 3. When the water with couscous has come to a boil, cover and remove from the heat. Let white couscous steep for about 5 minutes, whole wheat for about 10. (Or you can let them sit for up to 30 minutes or so, depending on how hot you want them.) Fluff with a fork.4. To the skillet, add the tomatoes, beans, zucchini and the salt and some pepper to the skillet. Adjust the heat so the mixture bubbles steadily. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down, the beans begin to get soft and creamy, and the mixture begins to thicken, 10 to 15 minutes. If the mixture looks too thick, stir in a splash of water. 5. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Reserve half of the vegetable-bean mixture and refrigerate. Serve the rest on top of the couscous, garnished with the herb.
- 6 tablespoons peanut or other neutral oil, like grapeseed
- 4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for garnish
- 2 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
- 2 tablespoon chopped shallot or onion
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne, or to taste
- 2 whole chickens, 6 to 8 pounds, trimmed of excess fat and cut into 16 pieces, or any combination of parts
Baking Directions:
1. Heat a charcoal or gas grill or broiler to moderate heat and put the rack about 6 inches from the heat source. If grilling, keep part of the grill cool for indirect cooking.2. Combine oil, cilantro, lime juice, shallot or onion, cayenne and some salt and pepper. If you're grilling, spread some of the mixture all over the chicken. If you're broiling, spread a little of the mixture on a foil-lined pan; put the chicken pieces on top and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Spread a little more of the mixture on the chicken. 3. To grill: put the pieces skin side up on the cooler side of the grill. After some of the fat has been rendered, turn the chicken; if it flares up, move it farther away from the fire, or turn it skin side up again. Baste the chicken as it cooks. When the skin has lost its raw look and most of the fat has been rendered, after about 20 minutes, move the chicken directly over the fire. Cook, turning as needed, until both sides are nicely browned and the flesh is firm and cooked through (to check for doneness, cut into a piece close to the bone; the juices should run clear), 5 to 10 minutes longer. To broil: Start with the skin side down and broil, making sure the pieces do not burn, until it's nearly done, about 15 minutes, then turn and cook until done, 5 to 10 minutes longer. Baste the chicken as it cooks. When the chicken is done, drizzle it with the remaining mixture and garnish with additional chopped cilantro. Reserve half the chicken and refrigerate; serve the rest with lime wedges.
- 1 1/2 to 2 pounds eggplant, preferably small
- 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, more or less
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 2 fish steaks or sturdy fillets, 3/4 to 1 pound each
- 1/2 cup Kalamata olives
- 2 tablespoon capers, optional
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper, optional
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley or dill, for garnish
Baking Directions:
1. Peel the eggplant if the skin is thick or the eggplant is less than perfectly firm; cut it into 1/2-inch cubes and salt them if the eggplant are large and time allows. Put the olive oil and all but 1 teaspoon of the garlic in a large, deep skillet, preferably nonstick or cast iron, over medium heat. Two minutes later, add the eggplant. Stir and toss almost constantly until the eggplant begins to release some of the oil it has absorbed, after 5 or 10 minutes. 2. Add the reserved tomato and bean sauce along with olives, capers and crushed red pepper to a small skillet with a lid or Dutch oven, over medium-high heat. Cook until eggplant is tender, 20 to 30 minutes.3. Lay the fish in the sauce and add water, if needed, so that the sauce comes just up to the top of the fish, not over it. Bring to a boil, then cover and remove from the heat. The fish will be done in about 10 minutes (a thin-bladed knife inserted between bone and flesh should reveal little or no translucence; if not, return the pan to a simmer and cook for another minute or two more). Remove the fish with a slotted spoon and serve, topped with vegetables and a little of the broth, garnished with the herb.
For salsa:
- 20 tomatillos, husked and rinsed
- 4 medium poblano or other mild fresh green chiles, roasted and cleaned
- 2 or 3 serrano or other hot fresh green chiles, (optional), roasted and cleaned
- 6 tablespoons neutral oil, like grapeseed
- 4 large onions, diced
- 10 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons Mexican or other oregano
- 2 cups vegetable stock or water
- 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
For enchiladas:
- 20 tomatillos, husked and rinsed
- 4 medium poblano or other mild fresh green chiles, roasted and cleaned
- 2 or 3 serrano or other hot fresh green chiles, (optional), roasted and cleaned
- 6 tablespoons neutral oil, like grapeseed
- 4 large onions, diced
- 10 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons Mexican or other oregano
- 2 cups vegetable stock or water
- 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- 4 cups green enchilada salsa (see above)
- 1 grilled or broiled chicken with cilantro and lime
- 1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco for garnish
- 1/2 cup chopped red onion or scallion for garnish
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro for garnish
Baking Directions:
For salsa:1. Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Put the tomatillos on a baking sheet and roast until the skins are lightly browned and blistered, about 20 minutes. Remove the tomatillos; when they're cool enough to handle, chop them finely, along with the chiles, saving their juices. 2. While the tomatillos are roasting, put the oil in a large deep skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are very soft and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Add the tomatillos, chiles, oregano, stock, and a large pinch of salt and pepper; stir and bring to a low simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly, 10 to 15 minutes.3. Stir in the cilantro and lime juice, taste, and adjust the seasoning. Use an immersion blender to purée the finished sauce in the pan. Or cool the mixture slightly, pour into a blender or food processor, and purée carefully. Serve at room temperature or refrigerate for up to 2 days.For enchiladas:1. Prepare the salsa if you haven't already. (You may cool and refrigerate the salsa for up to 2 days; reheat gently before proceeding.)2. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Spoon a thin layer of the salsa into the bottom of a 9 × 12-inch baking dish. Put about 1/2 inch of the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. When hot but not smoking, cook the tortillas, one at a time, until softened and pliable, about 10 seconds. Add more oil to the pan as needed. Drain on paper towels.3. First, pull the chicken meat from the bone and break it into bite-sized pieces. Sprinkle a heaping tablespoon of shredded chicken in the center of each tortilla, roll tightly, and put the enchiladas in the prepared dish, seam side down. The rolls should be packed in snugly against one another. Cover the top with some more sauce and bake for 25 minutes. When the enchiladas come out of the oven, sprinkle them with the queso fresco, onion, and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side and pass the remaining salsa at the table.

Leaving Stanford - Sun Changes Nasdaq Symbol
Sun Microsystems is changing its stock exchange ticker symbol from SUNW to Java. The new NASDAQ ID will be introduced August 27.
The abbreviation SUNW stands for "Stanford University Network Workstation" and has been the stock exchange symbol for the company's shares since it went public in 1986. Two of the three founders, Scott McNealy and Vinod Khosla, were students at Stanford University. In the meantime, many of Sun's products and projects revolve around the object-oriented Java programming language. Java has been a registered trademark of Sun Microsystems since 1995. "But SUNW represents the past, and it's not without a nostalgic nod that we've decided to look ahead." says Sun's CEO and President Jonathan Schwarz talking about the decision in his Blog. Thanks to the Internet, Java is now better known than the company name, Sun Microsystems, he says.
Schwartz thus views this as critical to the company's marketing strategy. In his opinion, the popularity of the business today is mainly due to its brands StarOffice, the Open Source variant OpenOffice, and the Java Internet technology. "This isn't about changing the company name" he makes clear, going on to add that "we are no longer simply a workstation company, nor a company whose products can be limited by one category - and Java does a better job of capturing exactly that sentiment than any other four letter symbol."
In the same context, Schwartz referred to cooperation with Google, which was announced just a few days ago.

Library Living? Integrating a library into a mixed-use development
Would you ever want to live and shop on top of or next to your library that is part of a mixed-use development? Cities looking to catalyze on a library's energy and flow of people could consider the development of a library as a component in a mixed-use project, which is development that integrates multiple components such as residential, office, and civic uses. Including a library in a mixed-use development could ease the public burden on the high construction and maintenance costs of building and operating a library while also attracting new tenants or residents. Cities across the US are contemplating or have executed on this model including Milwaukee, Marion, Portland, and New York.
Financing Energy Efficiency for Municipal Electric Utility Customers in North Carolina
Energy efficiency finance programs can help electricity customers to save money on their electric bills, have more efficient homes and offices to live and work in, reduce greenhouse gas emissions from energy production, and promote workforce development, job creation, and economic growth in local communities which may be very much in need of these benefits.
In the Old North State, electricity customers are generally served by one of three kinds of utilities: Investor-owned utilities (IOU's), co-operative utilities (co-ops), and municipal electrical utilities (munis). As part of the its energy and sustainability financing programs, the Environmental Finance Center at the UNC School of Government is now working on the Rural Community Energy and Economic Capacity Building Program, funded through a grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Community Development Initiative (RCDI), to research and develop ways to help electricity customers in three small towns in northeastern North Carolina to have greater access to energy efficiency (EE) financing alternatives. Two of these three towns have their own municipal electric utilities.
This brings us to the key questions of this blog post: What are utilities already doing in North Carolina to promote and finance EE for their customers? What other alternatives exist? And why does this matter in the first place?
Retail Incubators and Main Street Revitalization: Part 1
Launching a retail business in a downtown storefront is a capital and knowledge intensive endeavor. Equally, Main Streets across North Carolina and the country are struggling to retain and attract vendors, with each new empty window display threatening the economic health of the street as a whole. In this two-part series, we explore how retail incubators can bridge the gap between capital-strapped retailers and empty storefronts. Read more »
Evictions: A vicious cycle for people in poverty
Matthew Desmond has authored a scrupulously researched, stimulating and compelling book that should be of interest to everyone in the apartment industry, every low-income housing advocate, any student of American neighborhoods and every public official.
Examinations of urban poverty are nothing new, but this study of the causes and consequences of evictions on families, housing quality and the fabric of neighborhoods is innovative, thought-provoking, and readable. The author looks to bring this overlooked aspect of American poverty and inequality to a broader audience. Read more »
Statistics on Your Corner: Using Data Better in CED
In previous posts the CED blog explored the many publicly available sources for local data that can inform municipal staff, real estate professionals, and policy makers. But how can local governments make use this data, and how can they know that the conclusions reached are valid? Often municipal governments accumulate a trove of demographic, socio-economic, and parcel data that together are daunting for local governments to use. Statistical analysis is one option that local governments may pursue to effectively use this data to drive policy decisions and monitor the success of programs and the state of the community.
If your eyes glazed over in the last sentence and you feel your blood pressure rise with the sight of the word statistics, read on! Better use of data in community and economic development may be simpler than you think. Read more »
Mapping North Carolina's Local Food Infrastructure
Strengthening local food economies can be viewed as an important part of a holistic approach to community development. Local food can be a positive contributor to social capital, public health, environmental preservation, and overall quality of life. It also can be an important component of local economic development. In thinking about the development of robust local food economies, a lot of attention is given to the poles of local food supply chains: namely, local farmers and farms on one end, and outlets for distribution on the other, such as farmer's markets, co-ops, and CSA operations. But for many local farmers, too little attention is given to the intermediary steps in the supply-chain. The intermediary steps together constitute a critical infrastructure for local farmers that can make a huge difference in making a local food operation viable or not.
Hope through Housing: A Model for Addressing Pressing Community Challenges
In the Town of Carol-Blue, Donny, a local community developer, finds himself in a really tough position. Both the county and city budgets are constrained and the challenges the town face economically seem only to grow in size. After performing an analysis of senior housing demand, he realizes that the anecdotal stories he heard from friends about their tough time finding housing for older loved ones are not isolated incidents. He also read in the paper about drastic needs his towns has to address, such as housing veterans and the lack of resources socials services has had in supporting foster children and their adoptive families. Typically, he thinks of these problems as unrelated but he happened to read an article about a non-profit called Generations of Hope. The non-profit helps in developing communities of intergenerational housing with the purpose of helping to alleviate pressing social problems. Could this be a solution in addressing multiple Carol-Blue challenges at once?
Generations of Hope and Intentional Intergenerational Housing
Generations of Hope is a non-profit community development corporation that specializes in facilitating the development of specialty intergenerational housing models. Generations of Hope (GOH) began its mission in 1993 through its first planned community, Hope Meadows. Hope Meadows was provided a million dollar grant from the State of Illinois to purchase and redevelop a 22-acre former military base that would go on to include both senior apartments and housing for foster families. In this housing model, foster children are adopted by foster parents and are given support by seniors. In exchange for below market-rate rent, seniors volunteer six hours a week with foster children, performing various task such as tutoring, playing games and helping with other child care services.

2016 Environmental Legislation: Place Matters!
How much the last legislative session impacted environmental management in your community largely depends on where you live in the state. It was a "short" legislative session and relatively few bills were passed, but several of the bills that were passed contained significant provisions likely to impact environmental quality in specific regions of the state. For example, the Drinking Water Protection/Coal Ash Cleanup Act requires that the owners of coal ash impoundments (ponds) that were shown to pollute groundwater provide impacted households with a permanent alternative water source. The Act also lays out the process and Read more »
Renewed Funding Extends New Market Tax Credit Program Through 2019
The CED blog has previously written about the importance of New Market Tax Credits, and their place in the process for developing real estate transactions (a primer can be found here, and a discussion of the process for investment can be found here). Briefly, these credits are designed to drive capital to underserved communities, notably those which are determined to be 'highly distressed,' and provide investors with a 39% tax credit, paid over seven years, for investments in qualified projects. Credits are allocated to designated Community Development Entities (CDEs), which then select impactful projects in which to invest. Because funding for the Program is limited, investments tend to be highly competitive: this makes the impact of the project extremely important, and allocations often tend to concentrate around the various CDE's mission targets, which could range from solar energy, to rural health, to small business development, to any number of other things.

FBI Agent
Matters of national security and keeping the country safe don't stress you out, do they? Because if they do, this might not be the job for you.
Not only do you have to be on your game every time you put on the badge, you also have to trust your team to bring the same amount of game, roughly. When you're tracking a killer wanted for a spree in four states, the slightest smudge of dirt or piece of hair at a crime scene could determine whether you catch the perp or allow someone else to wind up on the evening news.
There's also the severe lifestyle-cramping involved in being a federal agent. You essentially lose any and all rights to personal privacy when you join the FBI, since you can bet they're monitoring your phone calls and emails. And you thought your boss at the Container Store watched you like a hawk.
If you're in a shootout—yes, we're going zero-to-sixty really quickly here—you have to be able to keep your cool long enough to save yourself and keep those around you safe. And let's not even get into the counterintelligence and counterterrorism stuff. A leaked schematic or misinterpreted intercepted message could cost countless lives.
Despite the obstacles, FBI Special Agents get the job done. They're the ones responsible for catching everyone from John Gotti and John Dillinger to the Oklahoma City Bomber to President Richard Nixon during the Watergate scandal.
You try investigating your President. Talk about stressful.

AbstractPermutation entropy, introduced by Bandt and Pompe, is a conceptually simple and well-interpretable measure of time series complexity. In this paper, we propose efficient methods for computing it and related ordinal-patterns-based characteristics. The methods are based on precomputing values of successive ordinal patterns of order d, considering the fact that they are "overlapped" in d points, and on precomputing successive values of the permutation entropy related to "overlapping" successive time-windows. The proposed methods allow for measurement of the complexity of very large datasets in real-time.

A seminar to help you minimise the risk of possible tampering or contamination and look at the protection of your produce, processes, people, buildings and brands from intentional harm.
Back To Training & Events
Multinational organisations are driving the need for their suppliers throughout Europe to have robust food defence programmes, thereby minimising the risk of intentional contamination and tampering. If you work with, or want to work with, a multinational company you will probably be required to have a Food Defence Plan. This plan will build on your existing food safety, HACCP and crisis management plans, as well as incorporate audits of the security of premises, shipping/receiving and personnel, in order to help ensure safe and secure food supply.
Food Defence and Incident Management: Developing a Food Defence Plan offers specific training for Managers responsible for food security and defence, helping you to understand the issues and challenges that might arise at a food facility from intentional tampering or sabotage. This course will help you identify what you are defending and who potential aggressors are and what an aggressor may use against you by conducting vulnerability exercises. At the end of the course, you will have a better understanding of the potential threats to your business, what the goals of an aggressor are and have the knowledge to develop a Food Defence Plan suitable for your needs by taking you to the mindset of the 'Bad Guy'.
If you have already received food defence training in the USA, this seminar will help give you a European perspective on an American initiative, helping to address issues specific to Europe.
Book today and contribute to a safer and more secure food supply!

To the surprise of many, the Celtic midfielder was omitted from the 2014 World Cup double-header against Serbia and Macedonia last month and his name was conspicuous by its absence on Tuesday when the Scotland manager named his pool for the forthcoming qualifiers away to Wales and Belgium.
Levein had previously said there were more than half a dozen players ahead of Commons in the pecking order and on this occasion claimed the 29-year-old was "really unlucky". Commons, who denies there has been any sort of falling-out with Levein, said: "It would be nice of him to tell me if I am not in his plans but at the minute I am in limbo."
He added: "Everyone seems to think I should be in the squad but the only man who doesn't want me in the squad is the manager, so it would be nice to find out if he has a problem with my game or attitude.
"I have no idea (why). I was called up last season a couple of times.
"I have had no text message, no phone call, nothing from the SFA so it is kind of baffling for me but if Craig Levein genuinely thinks there are seven players better than me then that's his view.
"I am still disappointed not to be involved in the squad. I have to forget about it while they crack on and try to get a result against Wales and Belgium.
"So good luck to them and hopefully I can do enough to get into the next squad."

The 25-year-old Olympic and 2011 world champion saw his lead trimmed on Saturday when Akito Watabe of Japan chalked up victory, but on Sunday the Frenchman was back to his very best, sealing gold in an overall time of 24:45.4 minutes.
Having notched up 107.9 points for his ski jumping exploits, Lamy Chappuis began the cross-country race in 11th place and 42 seconds behind half-way leader Haavard Klemetsen of Norway.
But the Frenchman was in inspired form in the cross-country, posting the second-fastest time of the field – 24.03.4 – to romp to gold, a full 15 seconds ahead of Austria's Bernhard Gruber, who was lying second after the ski jump, but fell away as the race ensued.
There was a similar story for Tomas Slavic of Czech Republic who was second behind Klemetsen after the jump but again fell away to end with bronze while Watabe could only manage 18th spot.
That means that Lamy Chappuis took his overall points tally to 1163, with Watabe trailing on 925 with only five events of the season remaining.
