CBNNews.com - JERUSALEM, Israel - An Israeli company has come up with a new product made of recycled paper fibers and plastic -- pipes that rival steel in strength.
The American Israeli Paper Mills Group (AIPM) showed samples of the pipes to Israeli President Shimon Peres and National Infrastructures Minister Binyamin Ben-Eliezer during a tour of the company's main paper mill plant in Hadera.
Sixty to 70 percent of the new pipes, called Cycletech, are made up of recycled paper and plastic.
The company's Research and Development Department developed the unique bonding agent that gives the pipe its strength, resilience and flexibility.
Amnir, a paper recycling subsidiary of AIPM, hopes to double the percentage of recycled paper in the country, from 25 percent at present to 50 percent, bringing Israel up to European standards in paper recycling.
At present, Amnir recycles 220,000 tons of paper and plastic annually, consisting of 160,000 tons of packing material, 50,000 tons of household paper - e.g., newspaper - and 6,000 tons of plastic.
The company hopes to produce packing materials made of 100 percent recycled paper, requiring recycling of an additional 200,000 tons of packing material.
Amnir also hopes to increase the amount of recycled plastic by 3,000 tons annually.

CE2628/613 Eyewear
As a customer of Edel-Optics, you are totally aware that eyewear can crown your style. This accessory makes you look very smart when you are out and about and convincing in the office and in your leisure time. The new Chloé underlines that you are a trendsetter. For the current season the renowned label sets the standards with its collection for 2016. The CE2628 is available in the Edel-Optics online shop in other styles from Chloé collections 2015 and 2016.
This frame was specially designed for genuine power women. Graceful design and expressiveness are interspersed with classical chic. Full rim frames completely enclose the lenses within the frame. For a convinced eyeglass wearer, any other frame style is ruled out, with very few exceptions. The quadratic shape is a good choice, especially for softer facial features. The square glasses give more contour to a round face. The straight outer edges also give the impression that the face is longer.
Moreover, we can also provide you with the correct prescription lenses at an incredibly low price. The only thing you need to provide us with are your current dioptre values determined by your ophthalmologist. Together with our digital dispensing optician, you can choose between reasonably priced brand lenses from Germany or premium brands such as Seiko, Hoya and Rodenstock. Edel-Optics' plastic lenses have many features such as anti-reflection coating, lotus effect, cleaning coating, antistatic and hard coating at no extra charge.
The next shipment is on its way, so we will have your Chloé back in stock very soon. We hope the unbelievably low price will be a consolation for the short wait. And because Edel-Optics is a paradise for bargain hunters, you can get this top model at an incredibly low price. What is labelled as "in the sale" at other online shops, is for us "all-day-everyday" prices.

Corey Stewart, Trump's man in Virginia, promises hell for undocumented immigrants
The xenophobic bloviator has already done some damage in Prince William County. Now he wants to be governor.
Clinton and Trump point America in two very different directions
This election is less a choice about personality than about direction, less about individuals than about movements.
Is punishing Hillary worth a potential Trump presidency?
Think the pain of a Trump presidency might be worth it in order to inflict a little punishment on Hillary? Not everyone can afford such arguments.
Trump is not the champion of blue-collar workers
Trump is a man who consistently puts his profits over the prosperity of the people - imagine the kind of short-sighted policies he'll push for as president.
Don't panic yet: 2016 Democratic primary resembles 2008
In May 2008, 60 percent of Clinton supporters were willing to vote for Obama. This year, 72 percent of Sanders' voters say they'll back Clinton against Trump.
Should Sanders take it all the way to the convention?
Hillary, if she is smart, will tip her hat and extend a hand to Bernie long before they meet in Philadelphia.
The electoral college, the two-party trap, and the presidential election
It will soon be time to face the reality of the two-party system; either the Republicans or the Democrats will win the presidency.
America must renew its infrastructure or face decline
Politics as usual won't change things. It will take a wave election, a sweeping rebuke to the obstructionist Republican Congress, for anything to happen.
Left Strategy 2016: A narrow defeat of Trump's racism is not enough
The perilous consequences of a Trump presidency should be a wake-up call for the left. The possibility of dealing the racist right a major blow should energize and excite us.
Hillary Clinton, Frederick Douglass, and imagination: A lesson in dialectics
Douglass could have despaired over Lincoln's inconsistent anti-slavery credentials, but he didn't. The left should take a page from his book for 2016.

Walk across Clifton Suspension Bridge, which has almost become the symbol of Bristol, 250ft above the Avon Gorge and built by Isambard Kingdom Brunel. Bristol Cathedral has a magnificent interior and the Bristol Museum and Art Gallery is well worth perusing with amazing artefacts from stuffed animals to hanging bi-planes. The M Shed, a modern museum documenting Bristol's past, is a must-do for visitors and there are striking contemporary art displays in the Arnolfini, in Bristol's buzzing Harbourside area. The Good Hotel Guide's hotels in Bristol include a contemporary converted hostel right by St Nicholas Market to a five-storey Merchant's House with copper baths. If you book for a hotel stay at the beginning of August you might witness the spectacular hot air balloon festival, Europe's biggest event. Mass ascents see up to 100 balloons in the sky and after dark amazing night-glow events take place.

Childbirths and Breast Cancer Risk
Additional Births and CancerCancer Risk
Having one child was not associated with a decrease in breast cancerbreast cancer risk. But each additional birth was found to reduce breast cancer risk by 14% in women who were 40 and older when interviewed. The association was the same for carriers of both BRCA 1 and BRCA 2 mutations.
This was not the case, however, when it came to age at first birth. Having a first child after the age of 20 was associated with an increased risk of breast cancer in BRCA 2 mutation carriers. But in BRCA 1 carriers, first childbirth at age 30 and older was associated with a decrease in breast cancer risk compared with first childbirth before age 20.
The researchers concluded that this difference may be due to chance, or that it may reflect a real difference in risk among BRCA 1 and BRCA 2 mutation carriers.
The study is published in the April 19 issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
Screening and Intervention
Women who are known to be carriers of the BRCA mutation often undergo increased surveillance, and more and more are choosing either drug or surgical interventions to reduce their risk.
Preventive mastectomy to remove breast tissue before a malignancy can develop dramatically reduces breast cancer risk, but it does not eliminate risk. Likewise, surgical removal of the ovaries has been shown to cut breast cancer risk by half in women with BRCA mutations.
American Cancer Society spokesman Len Lichtenfeld, MD, FACP, tells WebMD that genetically susceptible women should consider beginning breast cancer screening at age 30. It is also generally recommended that they get screened every six months, instead of every year.
There is also some debate about how to best screen women with BRCA mutations. Lichtenfeld says magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound are increasingly being used instead of mammography to screen high-risk, younger women because these techniques are believed to be more effective for identifying cancers in denser breasts.
Lichtenfeld says the newly published study should reassure high-risk women that pregnancypregnancy will not increase their risk of developing breast cancer.

The Cavaliers swept Duke in 2011 at Davenport Field and have not lost a home series to the Blue Devils since the ACC went to the three-game series format in 1990 (10-0-1). UVa has won its last four series overall against Duke, dating to a 2008 series defeat in Durham.
Virginia to Hold Senior Day Ceremonies Sunday
Virginia will conduct Senior Day ceremonies at 12:30 p.m. Sunday prior to the start of the final game against Duke.
UVa will honor seven fourth- and fifth-year student-athletes: Rob Amaro, Reed Gragnani, Colin Harrington, Jared King, Whit Mayberry, manager Taylor Myers and Scott Silverstein.

Three Cavaliers Named to Award Watch Lists
Three Virginia players recently have been named to watch lists for various national awards. Branden Cogswell is one of 25 players to be named to the watch list for the Wallace Award, presented to the nation's top shortstop.
Kyle Crockett is one of 51 players on the NCBWA's watch list for the Stopper of the Year Award, which is given to the premier relief pitcher in NCAA baseball. Nick Howard stands as one of 25 players on the John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year Award Watch List. UVa's Danny Hultzen won this award in 2011.
Cavaliers Aim for 40-Win Season
Virginia is on the cusp of its eighth 40-win season since 2004. UVa has recorded 39 wins or more in all 10 years under the current coaching staff (39 wins in 2008 and 2012). UVa had one season of 40 wins or more prior to 2004 (1996).
Five teams own 40 wins this season - UNC (44), LSU (43), Vanderbilt (42), and Florida State and Campbell (40).
Coming Out of Exam Break
Virginia is 15-12 since 2004 in the weekend following its exam break. Those contests all were at home. UVa has won its last four series which immediately followed final exams, going 9-3 in those games.
Noting the Blue Devils
Duke last played on Saturday, falling 4-3 at Liberty. The Blue Devils were slated to play Tuesday at Davidson, but the game was cancelled because of inclement weather. Duke owns ACC series wins over Miami, Boston College and Georgia Tech this year.
Andy Perez leads the team with a .313 batting average, while Grant McCabe and Kenny Koplove each are batting .300 for Duke, which is hitting .272 as a team (10th in ACC). The Blue Devils' pitching rotation is highlighted by Friday hurler Trent Swart, who is 4-4 with a strong 2.45 ERA. Duke owns a 4.06 team ERA, which is eighth in the league. The Blue Devils are fourth in the ACC with a .971 fielding percentage.
Offense Puts Up Big Innings Regularly
Virginia has scored three or more runs in an inning 56 times this year. UVa has recorded three runs in an inning on 27 occasions this year.
UVa has outscored foes 188-52 in the fifth through eighth innings: 38-11 in fifth, 42-18 in sixth, 43-15 in seventh and 65-8 in eighth. UVa averages 7.8 runs per game, outscoring its opponents 370-168.
Plenty of Close Games in April
Twelve of Virginia's 19 April games were decided by three runs or fewer, including five one-run games; UVa was 8-4 in those games. Four of UVa's seven April midweek games were determined by two runs or fewer. UVa had nine games decided by three runs or fewer in February and March.
Up Next
Virginia plays its final regular-season home game at 6 p.m. Tuesday against VCU. UVa then heads to top-ranked North Carolina next Thursday through Saturday (May 16-18) to wrap up the regular season. The ACC Baseball Championship will be contested May 22-26 at Durham Bulls Athletic Park in Durham, N.C.

Anyway there's no way this will affect GTA V in any way, but it still annoys me when people try to make this connection. There's really no correlation between violent games/movies and shootings. If that were the case then we'd all be in trouble after the millions and millions of CoD sales that happen every year, and we'd all be screwed every time a new action movie comes out. When will people just learn to take ownership and stop blaming everyone else?

The ironic part is that the kid wasn't a very big gamer. He liked Star raft and that was about it. You can't exactly say Star raft is the most violent thing ever, and I wouldn't place the blame on gun control either.

No kiddin. So much finger pointing, so little factual information.
For your information, the economy started crashing before Obama started his campaign, so blaming Bush is very valid.
The war isn't something we can just back out of. It's an international conflict, many countries have troops in Afghanistan. With the US being the strongest involved, we naturally have to stick around as long as other countries stay, else we appear weak to other nations militarily.
Here's a tip I already suggested. Stop listening to the garbage we call news, and educate yourself. Don't be so simple and close-minded.

Me and many of my friends' childhood are filled with GTA and other violence games. But none of us grew up and become a criminal.
I was watching violent R rated movies since 3-4 years old. I still remember watching Stephen King's IT when I was about 4. I played violent games when I was very young too. I was desensitized to pretty much everything at a very young age. Fast forward to today, and I'm no psychopath. I'm a regular human being who would never hurt anyone unless I was being threatened. It all comes down to the whole nature vs nurture thing.
I strongly believe that there might be some people who it is just in their nature to be evil. On top of that, if you're raised by bad parents or in a bad environment then you learn to develop these things that make you into a bad person. I had a pretty good childhood. I wasn't spoiled but I wasn't denied anything either. I think it's very very stupid and close-minded to just attack video games and movies instead of taking responsibility for what really happened. We can't start censoring these things. All it will do is put us in a pit of oppression like China, where freedom seems to be frowned upon.
The NRA has a completely misguided conservative agenda and it seems like it's got its own head up its ass when it comes to these things. Instead of conceding that tighter gun control might actually help, they pointed fingers at everyone and everything but their own organization and guns in general. They actually talked about armed guards at every school. Talk about a futuristic dystopia.. their solution is literally to say "well if bad guys have guns, let's arm EVERYONE!" Yeah, that'll go over well.. It really makes me question their sanity.

ST. LOUIS - Closing post offices and eliminating Saturday service "will cost more than just the jobs at the Postal Service," Fred Wolfmeyer, president of the American Postal Workers' Union (APWU) Gateway District Area Local, told the People's World as hundreds of postal workers and supporters rallied outside the downtown post office here Sept. 27.
"What's going to happen to all of the mail houses, the printers and other institutions that rely on the Postal Service? It could have a ripple effect in this bad economy," Wolfmeyer said.
Postal workers held hundreds of simultaneous rallies all across the country on the 27th to bring attention to HR 1352, a bill that would address the manufactured financial crisis facing the Postal Service.
According to Wolfmeyer, the Postal Service would be financially solvent if it wasn't required to pre-fund retiree health care 75 years into the future.
The pre-funding requirement was placed on the Postal Service in 2006 as part of the Bush Administration's attack on public services, working families and unions.
"No other corporation has to pay that. No other federal agency. Only the Postal Service," Wolfmeyer added.
The APWU, the National Association of Letter Carriers, the National Postal Mail Handlers Union and the National Rural Letter Carriers' Association say, "Congress created this problem, and Congress can fix it!"

Greenpeace boss risks jail to stop Arctic drilling
You can't get much higher-profile than this. The International Executive Director of Greenpeace, Kumi Naidoo, has scaled the controversial Arctic oil rig currently 120 km off the coast of Greenland. He is breaching a court injunction against his organisation imposed by a Dutch court a week ago at the request of Cairn Energy, the company operating the oil platform. The court order, sought by the company a week ago after 20 Greenpeace activists were arrested for stopping the rig operating, means a 50,000 Euros a day fine and the risk of jail for the Greenpeace chief.

Permafrost "tipping point" in less than 20 years?
I have been concerned about the effect of melting permafrost on the climate for quite some time, not least in the wake of encounters with scientists working in Greenland (this picture is Zackenberg, Greenland, 2009) and Alaska. Now research results published by the National Snow and Ice Data Centre (NSDIC) in Boulder, Colorado are indicating that there could be a "tipping point" or a "starting point", as Professor Kevin Schaefer prefers to call it, in less than 20 years. That means a point when the vast areas of permafrost in Alaska, Canada, Siberia and parts of Europe go from being a "carbon sink" to a carbon source. The study indicates as much as two-thirds of the carbon frozen into the permafrost could be released.
There's more info on the NSIDC website and on the ips news website, based on an interview with Prof. Schaefer. Not happy reading, but without big reductions in emissions, it will probably be impossible to prevent this. On top of that come the methane emissions, not included in the study. Methane is much more powerful than CO2 as a greenhouse gas.

On the trail of the truth about Greenland
Running for campus…
Let me recommend you a website and the book it's based on.I've seen it here and it's very impressive:Arctic Tipping Points
is the title, and it contains some beautiful and in some cases moving images relating to climate change and the Arctic. The editors are Carlos Duarte (quoted in earlier post) and Paul Wassmann (University of Tromsö.
(No tipping point for these swings)
I have been following the presentations dealing with the Greenland ice sheet closely. Sometimes it is a little frustrating when speakers hint at important results of studies which they cannot reveal fully ahead of publication. If you guys are trying to increase the suspense and arouse my interest in reports coming out in the next few months – you have succeeded. On the other hand, it seems a pity, with quite a few journalists sitting in the conference, that we can't use the opportunity to pass on some interesting results. Unfortunate timing, it seems some of the reports were originally planned to have been ready. But let me sum up what I can here.
Peter Wadhams, Professor of Ocean Physics at the University of Cambridge introduced the strain of the conference dedicated to "ice-ocean-atmosphere interactions in the Arctic". He refered to very large changes on the Greenland ice sheet, with very large areas of melt occurring in summer and a substantial net flux of fresh water into the sea every year. Now that is one of the key factors in measuring the changes. He told us the amount was almost the same as the total melt from mountain glaciers, suggesting this could be making a comparable contribution to global sea level rise as melt from all the rest of the glaciers in the world put together. He stressed the rate of melt on Greenland is accelerating and scientists just don't know how the acceleration rate will continue.
Lars Otto Reiersen is the Executive Secretary for AMAP, the Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme. He reported on the SWiPA (Project) (Snow, Water, Ice and Permafrost in the Arctic), which is preparing a report to be presented to a meeting of Arctic ministers in May. (sigh!) Suffice it to say, he indicated that when it comes to the mass balance of the Greenland ice sheet, the updated figures will show even higher melt. All will be revealed in a few months, it seems. And it will not be cheery reading.
Late afternoon impression of Tromsö campus while the weather was still beautiful (some like it cold). It is thawing at the moment, but forecast to cool again soon.

Greenland ice sheet to melt at lower temperature than anticipated?
I am sitting in the opening session of the science section of the Arctic Frontiers conference gathering scientists and experts from around the world in the Norwegian Arctic town of Tromsö. Leading German climate scientist Stefan Rahmstorf of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact research has just quoted an as yet unpublished paper by colleagues, currently being reviewed, indicating that the temperature threshold for a melting of the Greenland ice sheet could be as low as 1.3 to 2.3 degrees C. The IPCC assessment assumes a temperature rise of 1.9 to 4.6 degrees C. as the critical threshold.
The Cancun agreement to limit warming to 2 degrees was based on IPCC figures. There is however an agreement on the need to review the scientific basis for the maximum temperature rise limit.
Given the huge significance of the Greenland ice sheet – a complete melting of the Greenland ice sheet could mean a rise in sea level of 7 metres- this would be a very significant new study, assuming it is reviewed positively. He expects it to be published in a month or two. Rahmstorf does not want to say any more, as it is not his paper and the authors are not present. But he is not the sort of scientist who quotes studies without careful consideration. He says he\'s glad the Cancun conference agreed to keep reviewing the science that provides the basis for setting the temperature limits.

Alarming news on Greenland ice sheet
I was just preparing material for my trip to the Arctic Frontiers conference in Tromso this coming weekend when a press release came in headlined "new melt record for Greenland ice sheet".
A study sponsored by WWF Arctic, the US National Science Foundation and NASA has been examining surface temperature anomalies over the Greenland ice sheet surface and estimates of surface melting from satellite data, observations on the ground and models. Dr Marco Tedesco, Director of the CryosphereProcesses Laboratory at the City College of New York , is quoted as saying the past melt season was exceptional, "with melting in some areas stretching up to 50 days longer than average". It seems melting in 2010 started exceptionally early – at the end of April – and ended quite late in mid-September, says Tedesco. Amongst the other results of an article just published by Tedesco and others in Environmental Research Letters are that summer temperatures were up to 3 degrees C above the average in 2010, combined with reduced snowfall. Nuuk, the capital of Greenland, "had the warmest spring and summer since records began in 1873″.
The study indicates that bare ice was exposed earlier than the average and longer than previous years.
"Bare ice is much darker than snow and absorbs more solar radiation", says Tedesco. "This means the old ice is warming, melting, and running off into the sea".
Melting of the Greenland ice sheet is expected to be a major contributor to projected sea level rises in the future.
WWF's climate specialist Dr. Martin Sommerkorn said sea level rise was expected to top one metre by 2100, largely because of melting from ice sheets.
All of this does not surprise me. I am intrigued to hear what the Arctic specialists will have to report at the Arctic Frontiers meeting – and what the politicians attending the political part of the forum will have to say.

Oil spill cleanup impedes major Texas ship channel
TEXAS CITY, Texas -- A barge that once carried about 900,000 gallons of heavy tar-like oil was cleared Sunday of its remaining contents, a day after the vessel collided with a ship in the busy Houston Ship Channel and leaked as much as a quarter of its cargo into the waterway.
Coast Guard officials said that up to 168,000 gallons were dumped and that oil from the ruptured barge had been detected 12 miles offshore in the Gulf of Mexico as of Sunday afternoon.
"This is a significant spill," Capt. Brian Penoyer, commander of the Coast Guard at Houston-Galveston, said.
But he said the emptying of the barge Sunday, a process known as lightering as contents are transferred to other vessels, was equally significant.
"The remaining risk of pollution, we've removed that," he said.
More than 380 people -- "and we've ordered more," he said -- plus a fleet of oil-retrieving skimmers and other vessels deploying containment booms around environmentally sensitive areas worked to mitigate the damage.
Officials said they had scattered reports of wildlife damage. Some black tar-like globs, along with a dark line of a sticky, oily substance, could be detected along the shoreline of the Texas City dike, a 5-mile jetty that juts into Galveston Bay across from a tip of Galveston Island.
"That is the consistency of what the cargo looks like," Jim Guidry, executive vice president of Houston-based Kirby Inland Marine Corp., the owner of the barge, said when the substance was described to him at a news conference. "We're very concerned. We're focused on cleaning up," he said.

'Before I Die' wall installed at Sky High
Death has a way of clarifying life, or so say great philosophers and New Orleans artist Candy Chang. It has a way of making us examine the kind of person we want to be, the life we want to live, the people who are important to us.
On Tuesday, people in the Bay View neighborhood were confronted by the finiteness of their lives as a result of one of Chang's projects. A wall that reads "Before I die I want to..." and has little buckets of colored chalk so people can fill in the blanks was installed at the Sky High Skateboard Shop and Gallery, 2501 S. Howell Ave., and in cities across the U.S. on Tuesday. »Read Full Blog Post(2)

Condenser mics:
Condenser mics at The Way station sometimes feed back because they're picking up the sound in the room. If there's a 180 degree setting, meaning it will just pick up everything from the mic and behind it, that might work. But a 360 mic could be problematic.
A/V Note:
If you have a Video component for your performance, you must arrive at 6:30pm for a trial run to work out any potential kinks. Contact firstname.lastname@example.com to alert him that you will be arriving early for an A/V run through. If you do not do a run through, we can only spend 5 minutes on the fly to try and set up for your performance. If it takes longer than that, we will not be able to accommodate your video element.

You're welcome to videotape your show. You can set up your camera anywhere that doesn't take up seating. You may have a head or two pass in front, but basically you'll have the run of the place. Please don't have a constant light on as it can be very distracting, and when pointed at the stage, it's also pointed at the soundboard (super annoying while doing sound). We can adjust our lights to accommodate your camera, to an extent.
