It's 2015 and inequality looks like it's going to be here for a while
Oxfam's latest report ahead of the World Economics Forum in Davos says that "by next year, 1% of the world's population will own more wealth than the other 99%." [more inside]
An ounce of prevention is an administrative violation
Relieving poverty is charitable, but preventing it is not. Oxfam Canada, while renewing its charitable status, got into an argument with the Canadian Revenue Agency over its purpose. [more inside]
Winner takes all
The 85 richest people around the globe equals the assets held by half of the world's population. Ahead of this year's Davos World Economic Forum (and the premier of Rich Kids of Beverly Hills), Oxfam released a report on inequality. [more inside]
It is not very often that we have the opportunity to create a graphic equivalent of a drug fueled rant bringing all of our collective skills to bear. And it is almost unfathomable that we could actually do something like this and benefit a good cause. The Buck team dug deep, channeling our inner gonzo, to direct and produce this homage promoting Good Books, the online bookseller that passes all its profits through to Oxfam.
Amazing animation from the production/design company Buck.

The music video (SLYT) for the New Pornographers' single "Sweet Talk, Sweet Talk" turns the cheerful, bouncy pop tune into an elegy for the ravaged Gulf Coast. (The NPs previously.)
"No good ever comes of gentleman amateurs buying and selling"—Milton
Oxfam, the 67-year-old Oxford-based confederation of multinational organizations, spends more than $600 million a year around the world fighting poverty, famine, climate change and discrimination. $32 million of that budget comes from book sales at its 130 second-hand bookshops in the UK, making them the second largest retailer of second-hand books in Europe. Now, independent booksellers are beginning to speak out about the competition. On the BBC, in the Telegraph, the Guardian, and the New York Times, some British booksellers are questioning the wisdom of charities using chain stores to raise funds. Are they "destroying lives here to save them elsewhere" as they've been accused of by one former UK bookseller, or is this the logical economic result of "the English town with the secondhand bookshop everybody loves but most people never actually go into." as David McCullough, director of trading for Oxfam recently speculated?

A game of double bluff
A game of double bluff The UK and EU are keeping the poorer nations exactly where they want them: beholden to their patrons. (George Monbiot in the Guardian.) See also Oxfam's critique of the Doha round of WTO talks.
Paying the Price
The British aid agency OXFAM has released new figures on foreign aid. In 2003, the average aid budget of wealthy countries was just 0.25% of national income. According to the OECD this is actually a modest increase. Only 5 countries: Denmark, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden meet or exceed the 0.7% target agreed at the 1992 Rio Earth Summit. Among wealthy nations, the US is meanest in terms of percentage. At 0.14%, or £8 billion a year, the US foreign aid budget is less than one tenth of what was spent on the invasion of Iraq. The aid budgets of rich nations are half what they were in 1960, Oxfam said, while poor countries are having to pay $100 million a day in debt repayments. Does foreign aid help? Or is it just throwing good money after bad?

It seems like a lot of sarcasm can build up around such topics as when freaked out pregnant women go to the ER, when somebody needs to ask the group a question that others feel is either redundant or naiive. The posts end up getting closed, with people angry on either side. I also see that there are 5,741 members of this group. What I want to know, is by a poll, how many of you appreciate the sarcasm?
If you are feeling particulary argumentative about this question, I would like to ask you just mark the poll so this thread doesn't get closed. I am just really curious.

Used this paper to wrap brown card board boxes to create LARGE white dice. The paper was a great value. Was a bit translucent but we just double wrapped the boxes and it worked like a charm. It was easy to work with as a giftwrap project.
Best Uses
We used this paper to cover the walls for prom. We sprayed it with gold glitter. When the main lights were out, and the subtle lighting and disco ball reflected on it, the walls sparkled and came alive!

Wow. Is all you can say when you walk into the huge living room complete with grand piano and double-height, floor-to-ceiling windows. And through the windows you can spy the room's private, infinity-edge pool against the 180-degree uninterrupted backdrop of Hong Kong's famous city skyline.
This is the Presidential Suite at the InterContinental, and at 7,000 square foot, it's the largest suite in Hong Kong.
The bathroom, too, is something else. Firstly, the bathtub complete with countless jets is so big that you could fit a whole Hong Kong Rugby Sevens team in it. It's also perched right by floor-to-ceiling glass windows offering sweeping views of the city while you bathe. The super–high-tech showers also offer the same stunning view. And then there's the private steam room and sauna. Oh, and Chanel toiletries.
But it's the suite's private pool that has really become an iconic image across the world. And it's not hard to see why. It's large for worldwide private villa standards, let alone space-starved Hong Kong standards. Nestled alongside the pool is a private sunbathing area. And

Before contacting us, here are a few FAQ's that might answer your questions:
Q. My image/photo/avatar keeps showing up in the forums in another user's post. Is someone stealing or reusing my image without my permission?
A. This is a purposeful glitch in the forum program this site uses. You are the only one who sees your image on other peoples' posts. Other users see their own images in the other users' posts. The user posts with your images in them are posts that have been created by currently deleted users, and the forum program simply inserts your image as a placeholder while you are browsing the site. No one has taken, used, or stolen your image.
Q. How do I deactivate my profile?
A. Go to your profile, hover over the "Profile" item in the small navigation menu, click on "Edit Profile".
On this page, you will see a second small navigation bar appear. One item on the navigation bar is "Delete Profile". Click this link, and follow any other steps required to deactivate your profile.
Q. I haven't logged on to the site in quite a while. Why can't I log on now, and where is my profile?
A. User profiles that have not been logged in to for more than six months or so are removed from the site. You will need to recreate your profile from scratch by going to the Join Us page and signing up again and creating a new profile.
Q. I've waited hours. Why isn't my new account activated yet?
A. Please don't create a second account! It may take us up two days to activate your new account. Each new user account is reviewed before being authorized. If it takes us more than two days, write to us and let us know the username you signed up with. It is possible that we chose not to activate you because your account appeared to be that of a spammer or that your user activation e-mail didn't get sent to us.

The Buick Enclave crowns GM's newest batch of crossover SUVs, a group that also includes the Saturn Outlook and GMC Acadia. The Enclave has some features not seen on the Outlook or Acadia, including a power-adjustable steering wheel, rear backup camera and additional noise insulation. Like its siblings, the Enclave offers three rows of seats standard with seating for up to eight passengers. While the Outlook and Acadia compete with garden-variety Hondas and Toyotas, Buick says the Enclave will go head-to-head with the Volvo XC90 and Acura MDX, among others.
New for 2009
The 2009 Buick Enclave gets a bump in power, from 275 to 288 horsepower.
At nearly 202 inches from bumper to bumper, the Enclave is more than an inch longer than the Outlook and Acadia. The XC90 and MDX are both about a foot shorter.
- Sculpted ellipsoid headlights
- Waterfall grille and louvered gills
- Standard 18-inch wheels; 19-inch wheels optional
- Dual exhaust
- Quicksilver Metallic and Silver Green Metallic are new colors
Buick says the Enclave's interior strives to emulate that of a private jet. The second-row bucket seats slide forward and back, and the second and third rows fold to provide extra cargo room. With both rows stowed, maximum cargo room totals 116.2 cubic feet — considerably more than in the XC90 (93.2) or MDX (83.5).
- Standard bucket seats in the first and second rows
- Three-passenger third-row bench
- Optional three-passenger bench seat for the second row
- Optional heated and cooled seats for the driver, front passenger
- Optional navigation system and Bose 10-speaker stereo
Under the Hood
A 3.6-liter V-6 is the only engine available in the Enclave. It pairs with a six-speed automatic transmission. When properly equipped, the Enclave can tow up to 4,500 pounds.
- 288 hp (270 pounds-feet of torque)
- Six-speed automatic transmission
- Optional all-wheel drive
Standard safety equipment includes:
- Four-wheel-disc antilock brakes
- Electronic stability system with rollover mitigation technology
- Six standard airbags, including side-impact airbags for the front seats and side curtain airbags for all three rows
- During a rollover, side curtain airbags stay inflated for several moments to provide additional protection

Sen. George LeMieux (R-Fla.), the man Gov. Charlie Crist (I) appointed to the Senate, said Tuesday that the Republican-turned-independent governor should return the money he received from Republican donors for his Senate campaign.
Asked about Crist's decision to return some $9,600 in contributions from indicted former state party chair Jim Greer, LeMieux said, "There are a lot of Republicans who would like to have their contributions back too," according to the Orlando Sentinel.
LeMieux is Crist's former chief of staff and managed his gubernatorial campaign, but the interim senator parted ways politically with his old boss after Crist left the GOP.
Several former Crist backers have filed a lawsuit in an attempt to get their donations back from the Crist campaign.

Skip to comments.Mitt Romney files lawsuit against Free Republic. Claims Jim Robinson has "abused" him for years.
Posted on 11/18/2011 12:58:25 PM PST by ken5050
GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney today filed suit in Madison, Wisconsin small claims court against Free Republic founder Jim Robinson, claiming that Robinson has engaged in a pattern and practice of vehement abuse against (Romney) for years.
"Look," Mitt said, "it's obvious that I'm not a minor. In fact, I'm a Mormon. But let's be clear here. I was an adult at the time all these events occured."
When asked if he'd even met Robinson, and to describe the sexual nature of the alleged abuses, Mitt said that Robinson had been "screwing around with him for years."
My God, man.." he said..have you ever read some of the stuff he's written about me? Where he's told me to go, and what to do with myself? Geez, man..It hurts..it's painful...I read FR all the time, to check out what he's saying about me, and I swear, I'm starting to think that my initials are FUMR."
When asked again if there had been any actual physical contact between the two, Mitt replied, "my lawyers have advised me not to say anything further. However, I would like to point out that I've been as consistent as human beings can be in this regard, and that I am not going to walk away from that."
"Look at these," Romney said:
"Chief architect of RomneyObamaCommieCare.Big government, mandate loving Romney. TARP loving, bailout approving, Porkulus pushing Romney. Tea party surrender to Romney?
Over my dead body!
No surrender! NO RINOS! NO Romney."
"And that's just the stuff Robinson's said that I can repeat without blushing," he said.
As he was leaving, Romney proudly pointed out that former NYC mayor and one time presidential candidate Rudy Guliani was going to testify on his behalf. "Rudy has been a victim of Robinson for much longer than I have. I couldn't file suit when it was only myself making the claim. But now that Rudy has come forward, and is willing to be a corroborating witness, we can proceed."
Romney also claimed that on several instances, Robinson had taken him to Tea Parties in various cities around the country.
Reached for comment, Robinson flatly denied all the charges against him. "Look, if you think that I'd touch Romney...muss up that hair, let alone take him to a Tea Party, then you might as well think that I believe in global warming, and Hope & Change."
As he was hanging up the phone, Robinson could be heard muttering something about Trolls, ZOTS, and Viking Kitties.
IBTZ...Oh, wait. :-)
Zowie. Romney doesn't like the heat and wants to limit freedom of political speech. Mr. Romney, your colors are coming into high resolution.
Wow - you really are Mitt for Brains!!
I am Jim Robinson.
I wouldn't buy a used car from Mitt
Sounds like Mittie can't take a little criticism.
Oh, I dunno----Romney at a Tea Party would be welcome--- women are dying to know what he puts in his hair. ROTFL.
"women are dying to know what he puts in his hair. "
Camel spit!
Works wonders I'm told.
Thanks....BTW..you had Freepmail earlier..
I had to explain to my admin why I was laughing, she wanted to know what was so funny. :-)
Sounds to me like Mitt Romney can't take the heat from
the kitchen.
I like FR a whole lot more than I like Mitt Romney.
Good he reads us daily... Hope he reads this.
Stuff it Mitt, your a Massachusetts republican, end of subject.
There are no real Republicans in Massachusetts, can we say Scott Brown?
Sounds to me like Mitt Romney can't take the heat from
the kitchen.
I like FR a whole lot more than I like Mitt Romney.
Wow, this is really stupid satire.
Actually its kind of funny that I just don't really think about Mitty all that much.
Five yard penalty for those guys not wearing a helmet and ten yards for the quarterback in front.
Candle wax or beeswax. Wind won't ruffle it. Stays put. But then so would wood glue.
...Robinson could be heard muttering something about Trolls, ZOTS, and Viking Kitties.
Brilliant! This should really endear him with the Tea Partiers...
Wonder if he has some ex-Cain advisers on his staff? (snark)...
I wouldn't buy toilet paper from mitt
Heh-—good one.
Crap... Just had a Rick Perry moment... Thought it was a real story for a moment... (snark snark)....
There is a very good reason why Rush says the Democrat-controlled media doesn't attack Romney.
Nice satire...
This was a day to remember for the Anti-Milts, watching the melting of milt in NH. Congratulations, freepers.
John Semmens has had the last two of his satire pieces (that I've commented on) zotted from FR (my comments also gone without a trace)
I wondered at the time if the mods maybe didn't catch they were satire but since it was two of his pieces, I guessed satire wasn't well recieved here??
What am I missing?
Ya' done good.

All these years I thought it meant "Funding Underway".

OK, I can't pull out of my brain where that quote comes from.
No, but "FUBO" means "Fundamentally Undo Barack Obama."
women are dying to know what he puts in his hair.

Unit Plan
The New and Improved "What I Did on My Summer Vacation"
Engage your new students in sharing about themselves, their families, and their summer vacations through a variety of learning activities.
- Grades: 3–5
The start of the new school year is a time to get to know your students, assess their abilities, and determine learning styles, but time is short. These introductory activities will give you insight into your class and their families while providing several baseline samples.
Using children's literature as a guide, students retell the story of a family vacation that leads to a surprise-culminating event at the end. Students will also share background information through their "All About Me Museum" displays, a project that integrates four core social studies strands. As a bonus, you'll be able to create a stunning hallway display just in time for your school's Meet the Teacher Night, using student created poems and photographs derived from the lesson, "The Best Part of Me."
Students will:
- Put events in sequence from both a short and long time.
- Write a descriptive poem that describes their favorite feature.
- Create a multi-dimensional project that focuses on each student's individual history.
Lesson Plans for this Unit
Lesson 1: The Relatives Came: A Family Read-Along
Lesson 2: All About Me Museum
Lesson 3: The Best Part of Me
Culminating Activity
The culminating activities for Lessons One and Two are listed at the end of each lesson.
Supporting Books
- Subjects:Family Life, Back-to-School Experiences, Class Projects, Pride and Self-Esteem, Back to School, Autumn Themes, Understanding Self and Others
- Skills:Sequence of Events, Maps, Social Studies, Listening Comprehension, Descriptive Writing, Narrative Writing, Poetry Writing
- Duration:5 Weeks

'30 Rock' Is Back, Favorites Return with Originals; 'Rob,' 'The Finder' Debut – What Are You Waiting For? (Poll)
Tonight marks the return of originals episodes on CBS, FOX and NBC (ABC and CW aired originals last week). 30 Rock (finally) returns and Rob and The Finder make their series debuts.
From a personal viewing perspective, I'm most looking forward to 30 Rock's return because that's waited the longest (though I will be watching Bones, The Finder and Person of Interest, too). As a ratings blogger though, hands down I'm most looking forward to the ratings for Rob and whatever the subsequent reaction to them is!
To what are you most looking forward?

Ulcerative Colitis Health Center
Ulcerative Colitis - Symptoms
The symptoms of ulcerative colitis may include:
- Diarrhea or rectal urgency. Some people may have diarrhea 10 to 20 times a day. The urge to go to the bathroom may wake you up at night.
- Rectal bleeding. The disease usually causes bloody diarrhea and mucus. You also may have rectal pain and an urgent need to empty your bowels.
- Belly pain, often described as cramping. Your belly may be sore when touched.
- Constipation. This symptom may develop depending on what part of the colon is affected. Constipation is much less common than diarrhea.
- Loss of appetite.
- Fever. In severe cases, fever or other symptoms that affect the entire body may develop.
- Weight loss. Ongoing symptoms, such as diarrhea, can lead to weight loss.
- Too few red blood cells (anemia). Some people get anemia because of low iron levels caused by bloody stools or intestinal inflammation.
Other conditions with symptoms similar to ulcerative colitis include Crohn's disease, diverticulitis, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and colon cancer.

Will I Need Surgery for My Ulcerative Colitis?
Surgery can often cure long-term ulcerative colitis (UC). But it's not for everyone who has the disease. Your doctor might consider recommending an operation if your UC is very severe and you didn't get enough help from other treatments, like medicines and changes in diet. It could also be an option to help prevent colon cancer. There are two procedures. Both are major surgery on your digestive system. Get to know the details of each operation, and talk with your doctor about which one she recommends...

The Drill: TV shows following the Super Bowl
The after shows
After the Packers and Steelers finish pounding on each other in Super Bowl XLV, the "Glee" kids take the stage to pay tribute to Michael Jackson's "Thriller."
Fox's spirited and talented high school glee club joins an odd assortment of TV shows that have shared the post-Super Bowl spotlight.
There have been the hits - "Friends" (1996), "Grey's Anatomy" (2006) - and the misses - "Davis Rules" (1991), which starred Randy Quaid as a widowed school principal who was raising his sons with help from his wacky father, played by Jonathan Winters.
There have been the serious - "Homicide: Life on the Street" (1993) - and the silly - an all-star version of "Survivor" (2004).
Here are some of the other shows that followed the Super Bowl:
"Lassie" (1967, '68 and '70) - After Packers fans got through cheering for the champs in Super Bowls I and II, they could start a new chant: "Lassie Come Home."
"All in the Family" (1978) - The CBS smash was nearing the end of the road when it aired its "Archie and the Super Bowl" episode. Archie's bar was robbed shortly after the Cowboys mugged the Broncos.
"Brothers and Sisters" (1979) - This comedy, set in a college fraternity, tried to ride the wave of John Belushi's "Animal House," released the previous year. The show was gone by baseball season.
"The A Team" (1983) - Mr. T, welcome to our living rooms.
"The Wonder Years" (1988) - The pilot of this show aired following Super Bowl XXII, and poor Kevin Arnold is still waiting for his beloved Jets to win a championship.
"60 Minutes" (1992) - CBS' news-magazine staple followed a number of Super Bowls, but this was the most memorable: Bill and Hillary Clinton were interviewed about Gennifer Flowers. It may have been a more painful night for Hillary than for Buffalo Bills fans, who watched their team lose a second straight Super Bowl.
"The X-Files" (1997) - What goes better with football than a little alien/government conspiracy action?
"The Simpsons" (2005) - All you need is the title of the episode: "Homer and Ned's Hail Mary Pass."

The Malik Report
Lockout or no lockout, Red Wings continue working with Salvation Army
by George Malik on 12/10/12 at 01:27 PM ET
Comments (0)
I have to give the Red Wings major "props" for ensuring that while they can't combine charitable efforts with their players, the team's still employing Kirk Maltby, Kris Draper, Chris Osgood, Jiri Fischer, Chris Chelios, Ken Holland, Mike Babcock and Ken Kal to fill the void in terms of charitable endeavors. Tomorrow (a.k.a. Tuesday, December 11th), the vast majority of the front office will be manning kettles for the Salvation Army across Metro Detroit, and the Wings just released the following press release regarding their annual commitment to the Salvation Army's "bed and bread" program:
… Former Player and Radio Announcer to Serve Meals on Dec. 12 …
Detroit, MI… Former Detroit Red Wings player Kirk Maltby and radio play-by-play announcer Ken Kal will serve food and hot chocolate to Detroit neighbors in need from The Salvation Army's Bed & Bread Truck this Wednesday, Dec. 12, at 11:45 a.m.
The Bed & Bread Truck will leave the Detroit Harbor Light facility shortly before noon with Maltby and Kal on board to go on its daily route. This year marks the fifth time the former player has volunteered on the Bed & Bread Truck since 2006. Through The Salvation Army Bed & Bread program, 5,000 meals are served each day to children, adults and seniors in Detroit's hardest hit neighborhoods.
WHO: Former Player Kirk Maltby and Radio Play-by-Play Announcer Ken Kal
WHEN: 11:45 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 12, 2012
WHERE: Acres of Hope – Detroit Harbor Light
3737 Lawton St.
Detroit, MI 48208
About The Salvation Army:
Founded by William and Catherine Booth in London, England in 1865, The Salvation Army is a faith-based, non-profit organization dedicated to serving people in need without discrimination. This past year, The Salvation Army of Metro Detroit was involved in providing more than 3.2 million meals and more than 687,000 nights of shelter for the homeless. The Salvation Army uses $.85 of every dollar raised to provide direct services to people in need each and every day of the year. For more information about The Salvation Army, please call 877-SAL-MICH, or visit us at http://www.salmich.org.
I may not agree with the decisions made by their ownership regarding the lockout, but the Wings deserve oodles of praise, from the top down, for making sure that their former players, coaches and management are working overtime to make sure that the team's charitable commitments will be fulfilled and represented by as much star power as the team can currently employ.
So many people are in need here in Metro Detroit, and the Wings haven't let the lockout slow their momentum down in terms of raising funds and awareness of the fact that our charitable organizations are being pushed to the breaking point at times when more and more people need their help.

Simelane not fit for office - DA
The DA on Tuesday told the Constitutional Court, Advocate Menzi Simelane was not fit for office.
JOHANNESBURG - The Democratic Alliance (DA) on Tuesday told the Constitutional Court, Advocate Menzi Simelane was not fit to be in office, and was only appointed head of the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) so someone malleable would run the organisation.
Simelane and the Justice Ministry are opposing a Supreme Court of Appeal Decision that President Jacob Zuma's appointment of Simelane was unlawful.
The Ginwala Commission found that Simelane had tried to mislead it, when he gave testimony under oath.
The DA's lawyer Owen Rogers said there was no proper process to determine whether Simelane was the right candidate for the job.
"The president neither asked for nor received any written reports concerning Simelane's performance as Director General of Justice."
However, Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng said Justice Minister Jeff Radebe would have known about Simelane's performance.
"The minister having been a cabinet minister all along would have had some understanding of how the Department of Justice was performing."
Rogers said there were no official documents that could prove this and which could be submitted to the court.
Zuma appointed Simelane in 2009 despite a public outcry from the DA and Archbishop Desmond Tutu.
The Supreme Court of Appeal Decision in December ruled that Simelane's appointment was invalid.

Consumer prices rise 0.3 percent in February
March 22, 2001
On a seasonally adjusted basis, the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 0.3 percent in February, following a 0.6 percent rise in January.
The energy index, which rose 3.9 percent in January and accounted for over one-half of the overall January CPI-U increase, declined 0.2 percent in February. The index for energy services fell 1.0 percent, largely as a result of a downturn in the index for utility natural gas—down 2.4 percent after increasing 17.4 percent in January. The index for petroleum-based energy rose 0.7 percent in February.
The food index, which rose 0.3 percent in January, increased 0.5 percent in February, reflecting a sharp turnaround in the index for fruits and vegetables. Excluding food and energy, the CPI-U rose 0.3 percent in February, the same as in January.
For the 12-month period ended in February, the CPI-U increased 3.5 percent.
These data are a product of the BLS Consumer Price Index program. Find out more in Consumer Price Indexes, February 2001, news release USDL 01-68.

Bathrooms are damp places. Having baths and showers, washing your face in hot water – these things make for a wet environment. There are steps you can take to keep mould at bay and your bathroom looking and smelling fresh, but much advice on the internet is about what to do about mould when you have it – there isn't a huge amount of advice about prevention. The problem is, once mould is establishment it is almost impossible to get rid of it completely, it will keep growing back. Here's a few handy tips for you to prevent humidity and consequently, the build-up of mould in your bathroom.
One of the easiest and cheapest options to help moisture clear is to leave your bathroom windows open. The warm, moist air will disappear out the window and keep your bathroom cool and dry. There are two major drawbacks to this though. In the winter, the room could get very cold and the heat from the radiator will disappear outside along with the moisture. You also may not want to leave your windows open while you are at work – especially if it makes ...

Witherspoon Lecture Series
William Witherspoon established the lecture series at Queens in memory of his wife Margaret, a 1932 alumna of Queens who passed away in 1995. She majored in chemistry and biology and taught high school in St. Louis, Missouri. They were married in 1938. The Witherspoon Lectures were established to address the religious and moral implications of developments in the sciences.
"I decided to endow this lecture series at Queens because I feel it is important for students today to know the important connection between theology and science," Witherpoon said. "The number of philosophy and religion majors has risen in recent years at Queens, and I wanted to support the University's commitment to linking the humanities and the natural sciences."
William Witherspoon studied nuclear physics, chemistry and astronomy at the University College of Washington University in St. Louis while building a successful career in investment analysis.

Decision and Order Granting a Waiver to Samsung From the Department of Energy Residential Refrigerator and Refrigerator-Freezer Test Procedures
Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of Energy.
Decision and Order.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) gives notice of the decision and order (Case Nos. RF-018, RF-019) that grants to Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (Samsung) a waiver from the DOE electric refrigerator and refrigerator-freezer test procedures for the basic models set forth in its petitions for waiver in Cases RF-018 and RF-019. Under today's decision and order, Samsung shall be required to test and rate these refrigerator-freezers using an alternate test procedure that takes their multiple defrost cycles into account when measuring energy consumption.
This Decision and Order is effective January 10, 2012.
For Further Information Contact
Dr. Michael G. Raymond, U.S. Department of Energy, Building Technologies Program, Mailstop EE-2J, 1000 Independence Avenue SW., Washington, DC 20585-0121. Telephone: (202) 586-9611, Email: .

Supplementary Information
In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR 430.27(l)), DOE gives notice of the issuance of its decision and order as set forth below. The decision and order grants Samsung a waiver from the applicable residential refrigerator and refrigerator-freezer test procedures in 10 CFR part 430, subpart B, appendix A1 for certain basic models of refrigerator-freezers with multiple defrost cycles, provided that Samsung tests and rates such products using the alternate test procedure described in this notice. Today's decision prohibits Samsung from making representations concerning the energy efficiency of these products unless the product has been tested consistent with the provisions and restrictions in the alternate test procedure set forth in the decision and order below, and the representations fairly disclose the test results.
Distributors, retailers, and private labelers are held to the same standard when making representations regarding the energy efficiency of these products. 42 U.S.C. 6293(c).
Issued in Washington, DC, on January 3, 2012.
Kathleen B. Hogan,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Energy Efficiency, Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy.
Decision and Order
In the Matter of: Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (Case Nos. RF-018, RF-019).
I. Background and Authority
Title III, Part B of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 (EPCA), Public Law 94-163 (42 U.S.C. 6291-6309, as codified) established the Energy Conservation Program for Consumer Products Other Than Automobiles, a program covering most major household appliances, which includes the residential electric refrigerators and refrigerator-freezers that are the focus of this notice. (1) Part B includes definitions, test procedures, labeling provisions, energy conservation standards, and the authority to require information and reports from manufacturers. Further, Part B authorizes the Secretary of Energy to prescribe test procedures that are reasonably designed to produce results which measure energy efficiency, energy use, or estimated operating costs, and that are not unduly burdensome to conduct. (42 U.S.C. 6293(b)(3)) The test procedure for residential electric refrigerators and refrigerator-freezers is set forth in 10 CFR part 430, subpart B, appendix A1.
DOE's regulations for covered products contain provisions allowing a person to seek a waiver from the test procedure requirements for a particular basic model for covered consumer products when (1) the petitioner's basic model for which the petition for waiver was submitted contains one or more design characteristics that prevent testing according to the prescribed test procedure, or (2) when prescribed test procedures may evaluate the basic model in a manner so unrepresentative of its true energy consumption characteristics as to provide materially inaccurate comparative data. 10 CFR 430.27(a)(1). Petitioners must include in their petition any alternate test procedures known to the petitioner to evaluate the basic model in a manner representative of its energy consumption characteristics. 10 CFR 430.27(b)(1)(iii).
The Assistant Secretary for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (the Assistant Secretary) may grant a waiver subject to conditions, including adherence to alternate test procedures. 10 CFR 430.27(l). Waivers remain in effect pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 430.27(m).
Any interested person who has submitted a petition for waiver may also file an application for interim waiver of the applicable test procedure requirements. 10 CFR 430.27(a)(2). The Assistant Secretary will grant an interim waiver request if it is determined that the applicant will experience economic hardship if the interim waiver is denied, if it appears likely that the petition for waiver will be granted, and/or the Assistant Secretary determines that it would be desirable for public policy reasons to grant immediate relief pending a determination on the petition for waiver. 10 CFR 430.27(g).
II. Samsung's Petition for Waiver: Assertions and Determinations
On January 27 and July 19, 2011, Samsung submitted petitions for waiver and applications for interim waiver (petitions) from the test procedures applicable to residential electric refrigerators and refrigerator-freezers set forth in 10 CFR part 430, subpart B, appendix A1. Samsung's petitions were applicable to specified basic models of refrigerator-freezers that incorporate multiple defrost cycles. In its petitions, Samsung requested a waiver from the existing DOE test procedure applicable to refrigerators and refrigerator-freezers under 10 CFR part 430 because the existing test procedure does not account for multiple defrost cycles. Therefore, Samsung has asked to use an alternate test procedure that addresses defrost energy use and multiple defrost cycles in the same way as the new Appendix A test procedure DOE published in an interim final rule (75 FR 78810, Dec. 16, 2010) (codified at 10 CFR 430, Subpart B, Appendix A).
Whirlpool commented in response to Samsung's waiver petition that applying the second part of the interim final rule test to the fresh food defrost of one of these products results in an energy credit. Whirlpool's waiver comments discussed the data from testing performed by the Canadian Standards Association that examined the energy consumption of a Samsung model that uses multiple defrost cycles—Samsung model No. RFG297AAPN. Whirlpool asserted that the test results are illogical because the energy use contribution of the fresh food compartment defrost is negative (i.e. an energy credit), and added that the energy use contribution of the freezer compartment defrost is underestimated. (Docket EERE-2011-BT-WAV-0017, Whirlpool, No. 4 at p. 4) Whirlpool recommended that the test period for the second (defrost) part of the test for the fresh food defrost should end at the end of the second compressor "on" cycle after defrost, and that such a change to the test procedure for the fresh food defrost only would increase the measured energy use of the product by 1.6 percent.
After considering Whirlpool's comments suggesting that DOE modify the second part of the test, DOE reopened the comment period on the interim final rule and specifically requested comment on this topic. 76 FR 57613-57614 (Sept. 15, 2011). Whirlpool commented on the interim final rule and, consistent with its comments on the Samsung waiver, stressed that the end of the second part of the test be moved so that it coincides with the end of a compressor "on" cycle. Whirlpool asserted that this change should be made for all defrosts, whether they are for fresh food compartments or freezer compartments.
Whirlpool's interim final rule comments did not explain how the suggested test period would result in more accurate test results. Instead, the comments stated that the "underlying principle when measuring the energy consumption of any product which operates in cycles is to measure from the same point in one cycle to the same point in a successor cycle," and asserted that the test procedure of Appendix A set forth in the interim final rule measures from a compressor stop to a compressor start for products with cycling compressors. Whirlpool did not, however, provide any explanation supporting the measurement from a point in one cycle to the same point in a successor cycle. The comments stated that the negative energy use contribution (i.e., an energy credit) measured for the fresh food defrost of the Samsung product when using the Appendix A test period set forth in the interim final rule is not credible. As a result, DOE reexamined the test period contained in the interim final rule to help determine a means to account for the observation noted by Whirlpool.
More recently, DOE prepared an assessment demonstrating that a test period for the second part of the test both starting and ending at the end of a compressor "on" cycle is consistent with the full-cycle measurement specified for testing non-variable automatic defrost products. This document (2) shows mathematically that a calculation of energy use using the "section 4.2" (3) test period ("full test period") matches the two-part calculation only when the second part of the test both starts and ends at the end of a compressor "on" cycle.
On the other hand, the compartment temperature is at its typical steady-state cycling maximum (the higher horizontal line of the temperature plot of figure 1 of 10 CFR 430, subpart B, appendix A) when test period T2 ends. Hence, while the compartment temperature has recovered to the range within which it varies during steady state operation, it has not recovered to the temperature state associated with the start of the test period—i.e. the temperature is warmer than at the start of the test period. In order to allow recovery to the start-of-test-period temperature, the test period would have to continue until the end of the compressor "on" cycle. This analysis illustrates that the test period prescribed by the interim final rule for the second part of the test is unlikely to fully account for the energy use associated with temperature recovery.
DOE concludes that the test period for the second part of the test specified in the interim final rule for products with cycling compressors and long-time or variable defrost may not accurately account for the energy use associated with defrost, which necessitates a change to enhance the accuracy of the measurement. DOE received no other comments on this topic during the comment periods for the test procedure interim final rule. In light of this new information, and its own review, DOE adopted the approach suggested by Whirlpool in its comments on the Samsung waiver and interim final rule to help ensure the procedure in Appendix A provides a greater level of accuracy. DOE also adopts this approach as the alternate test procedure in this Decision and Order.
III. Consultations With Other Agencies
DOE consulted with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) staff concerning the Samsung petition for waiver. The FTC staff did not have any objections to granting a waiver to Samsung.
IV. Conclusion
After careful consideration of all the material that was submitted by Samsung and consultation with the FTC staff, it is ordered that:
(1) The petitions for waiver submitted by the Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (Case Nos. RF-018 and RF-019) are hereby granted as set forth in the paragraphs below.
(2) Samsung shall be required to test and rate the following Samsung models according to the alternate test procedure set forth in paragraph (3) below.
(3) Samsung shall be required to test the products listed in paragraph (2) above according to the test procedures for residential electric refrigerator-freezers prescribed by DOE at 10 CFR part 430, appendix A1, except that, for the Samsung products listed in paragraph (2) only, include:
1. In section 1, Definitions, the following definition:
"Defrost cycle type" means a distinct sequence of control whose function is to remove frost and/or ice from a refrigerated surface. There may be variations in the defrost control sequence such as the number of defrost heaters energized. Each such variation establishes a separate distinct defrost cycle type. However, defrost achieved regularly during the compressor "off" cycles by warming of the evaporator without active heat addition is not a defrost cycle type.
2. In section 4, Test Period, the following:
4.2.1 Long-time Automatic Defrost. If the model being tested has a long-time automatic defrost system, the two-part test described in this section may be used. The first part is a stable period of compressor operation that includes no portions of the defrost cycle, such as precooling or recovery, that is otherwise the same as the test for a unit having no defrost provisions (section 4.1). The second part is designed to capture the energy consumed during all of the events occurring with the defrost control sequence that are outside of stable operation.
126.96.36.199 Cycling Compressor System. For a system with a cycling compressor, the second part of the test starts at the termination of the last regular compressor "on" cycle. The average temperatures of the fresh food and freezer compartments measured from the termination of the previous compressor "on" cycle to the termination of the last regular compressor "on" cycle must both be within 0.5 °F (0.3 °C) of their average temperatures measured for the first part of the test. If any compressor cycles occur prior to the defrost heater being energized that cause the average temperature in either compartment to deviate from its average temperature for the first part of the test by more than 0.5 °F (0.3 °C), these compressor cycles are not considered regular compressor cycles and must be included in the second part of the test. As an example, a "precooling" cycle, which is an extended compressor cycle that lowers the temperature(s) of one or both compartments prior to energizing the defrost heater, must be included in the second part of the test. The test period for the second part of the test ends at the termination of the first regular compressor "on" cycle after both compartment temperatures have fully recovered to their stable conditions. The average temperatures of the compartments measured from this termination of the first regular compressor "on" cycle until the termination of the next regular compressor "on" cycle must both be within 0.5 °F (0.3 °C) of their average temperatures measured for the first part of the test. See Figure 1.
4.2.4 Systems with Multiple Defrost Frequencies. This section applies to models with long-time automatic or variable defrost control with multiple defrost cycle types, such as models with single compressors and multiple evaporators in which the evaporators have different defrost frequencies. The two-part method in 4.2.1 shall be used. The second part of the method will be conducted separately for each distinct defrost cycle type.
3. In section 5, Test Measurements, the following:
188.8.131.52 Long-time or Variable Defrost Control for Systems with Multiple Defrost cycle Types. The energy consumption in kilowatt-hours per day shall be calculated equivalent to:
1440 is defined in 126.96.36.199 and EP1, T1, and 12 are defined in 220.127.116.11;
i is a variable that can equal 1, 2, or more that identifies the distinct defrost cycle types applicable for the refrigerator or refrigerator-freezer;
EP2i = energy expended in kilowatt-hours during the second part of the test for defrost cycle type i;
T2i = length of time in minutes of the second part of the test for defrost cycle type i;
CTi is the compressor run time between instances of defrost cycle type i, for long-time automatic defrost control equal to a fixed time in hours rounded to the nearest tenth of an hour, and for variable defrost control equal to
(CTLi × CTMi)/(F × (CTMĩ CTLi) + CTLi);
CTLi = least or shortest compressor run time between instances of defrost cycle type i in hours rounded to the nearest tenth of an hour (CTL for the defrost cycle type with the longest compressor run time between defrosts must be greater than or equal to 6 but less than or equal to 12 hours);
CTMi = maximum compressor run time between instances of defrost cycle type i in hours rounded to the nearest tenth of an hour (greater than CTLi but not more than 96 hours);
For cases in which there are more than one fixed CT value (for long-time defrost models) or more than one CTM and/or CTL value (for variable defrost models) for a given defrost cycle type, an average fixed CT value or average CTM and CTL values shall be selected for this cycle type so that 12 divided by this value or values is the frequency of occurrence of the defrost cycle type in a 24 hour period, assuming 50% compressor run time.
F = default defrost energy consumption factor, equal to 0.20.
For variable defrost models with no values for CT Li and CTMi in the algorithm, the default values of 6 and 96 shall be used, respectively.
D is the total number of distinct defrost cycle types.
(4) Representations. Samsung may make representations about the energy use of its refrigerator-freezer products for compliance, marketing, or other purposes only to the extent that such products have been tested in accordance with the provisions outlined above and such representations fairly disclose the results of such testing.
(5) This waiver shall remain in effect consistent with the provisions of 10 CFR 430.27(m).
(6) This waiver is issued on the condition that the statements, representations, and documentary materials provided by the petitioner are valid. DOE may revoke or modify this waiver at any time if it determines the factual basis underlying the petition for waiver is incorrect, or the results from the alternate test procedure are unrepresentative of the basic models' true energy consumption characteristics.
(7) This waiver applies only to those basic models set out in Samsung's January 27 and July 19, 2011 petitions for waiver. Grant of this waiver does not release a petitioner from the certification requirements set forth at 10 CFR part 429.
Issued in Washington, DC, on January 3, 2012.

North Star Foundation
Rating: 4.17 stars 47 47 reviews
20 Deerfield Ln Storrs CT 06268 USA
North Star Foundation was formed to help children who have developmental differences such as autism, or who must face challenges such as the loss of a parent, through the use of a specially bred and trained Assistance Dog. Our mission is to help children reach their social, emotional, and educational goals through the use of Animal-Assisted Therapy. We work with the children's existing therapists to help them incorporate their North Star dog into a child's therapeutic program. We travel to childrens' schools to present a program to their peers that promotes tolerance and understanding, as we believe there is no better way to teach tolerance than through the avenue of an Assistance Dog that is trained to help. We also work with children's families, teaching them how to use their North Star Dog to help smooth transitions and soothe anxiety for everybody on the homefront.
