Final approval for Cape Wind is stalled, aggravating developers of the Massachusetts offshore wind project and igniting concerns that the latest roadblock -- over American Indian ceremonies -- could jeopardize other ocean-based energy proposals.

The 130-turbine project appeared to be sailing toward federal consent after the Interior Department's Minerals Management Service issued a supportive environmental report in January, about eight years after the pioneering project was announced. A decision could have come 30 days later.
But spring, and then summer, passed without approval. Cape Wind Associates, the Boston-based group pursuing the project, expected to receive the nation's first seafloor lease months ago.
Now, no one is sure when the final decision will come, or whether it will demand that the developers relocate the wind farm to a different site or alter the plan in other ways.
"There's great concern. It should have been finished months ago," said Mark Rodgers, a spokesman for Cape Wind, noting that the delay is disrupting efforts to arrange construction contracts, line up installation barges and find buyers for the anticipated electricity.
Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act is causing the setback. It is one consideration among a multitude of factors that have been parsed, researched and reparsed before the federal government will grant its maiden lease for an offshore wind facility on the outer continental shelf.
Cape Wind supporters assert that "106" won't sink the project, saying reams of existing research, including the government's 800-page final environmental impact statement, have established that the facility's clean power benefits outweigh its negative impacts.
Turbines would disrupt sacred sunrise and burial sites
Two Indian tribes, however, say Section 106 demands that the planned field of 440-foot-tall turbines be abandoned in order to comply with the law. It protects artifacts and areas where cultural ceremonies are practiced.
The Wampanoag tribes, or the "People of First Light," say sprawling Nantucket Sound -- hundreds of square miles of ocean -- must provide an unobstructed view of the rising sun in order for the tribes to continue ceremonies that are centuries old. They want the federal government to designate the sound as a "traditional cultural property" and prohibit the project from being built there.
Among the claims is that Horseshoe Shoal, the shallow underwater plateau into which the turbines' shafts would be sunk 80 feet into sandy seafloor, is an Indian burial site long ago enveloped by the ocean. The Wampanoag say their oral history reaching thousands of years into the past points to the shoal as a place where early relatives hunted, lived and died.
"It is a place where our ancestors are buried," said George "Chuckie" Green, a historical officer for the tribe. "It is a place that is principal to our practices. An unobstructed view of the eastern sun is paramount to our religion."
The latest obstacle in the project's approval process is a sensitive topic. Other concerns have been overcome by mitigating the impact on birds, marine life and the safety of boaters. Supporters question why the tribes didn't raise their concerns years ago, and suggest that they have become a tool of delay used by the Alliance to Protect Nantucket Sound, the well-funded opposition group.
"If feels a bit like a 'Gotcha,' an intentional effort to extend the process," said Sue Reid, a senior attorney with the Conservation Law Foundation. "It seems there's at least some likelihood that it is deliberate that those properties weren't identified earlier, and that's unfortunate."
MMS 'failing miserably' with Indians
Green dismissed accusations that the alliance is providing legal support to his tribe, the Mashpee Wampanoag. But he acknowledged that he works closely with the alliance, which has financially benefited from influential members associated with the fossil fuel industry. William Koch, an alliance director and owner of Oxbow Corp., an energy company that provides coal to utilities, has given generously.
"I'm in constant contact with them," Green said of the alliance. "Their reasons are different, but their goal is the same."

Dungeon Defenders Cheats
Can we please get this post unlocked if that's where we should be posting?
P.S. thanks for updating the trainer Cal , but I am unable to get option 1 to work.
"Tell the developers to fix the game and then we'll fix the trainer.
Thread closed until then."
That's why.
if you look at the latest post on the trainer topic you will see my public apology.
hopefully the underlying issues behind this game's problems are fixed/ will soon be fixed by the developers, but until then i must keep the thread closed out of respect for PWizard.
again, i am sorry for the confusion and im sure PWizard himself will address the issue shortly.

1) while in tavern, NOTE the lower RIGHT corner where it says MANA BANK. Press key it should in crease. ALL my characters this works when tested. If this is not working for you I have no idea what to tell you.
2) also while in the battle part of the game, you can likely enter the Defender's Forge where it displays Banked Mana and press the option and it rises there.
if this isn't working then i have no idea what to tell you. it works every time, with any character i have, as many times as i try it without fail. if you don't have ANY banked mana, then perhaps you need to have at least ONE or something.

are book suggestions for electronics or programming in general.
These types of books are more useful in the long run as they give you a more solid grounding in fundamental techniques and these are books that I have found the most useful.
In the C programming link page you'll find the best books for C programming
- strangely enough the most useful is actually the smallest!
Books on C programming.
Books onElectronics:
High Speed Digital Design
Author: Howard Johnson
Simply the best book on practical
digital design solutions for noise and signal integrityand covers the practical
aspects of making a digital circuitry operate in the real world. It is
essential reading covering all aspects of designing systems and pcbs that work.
It covers decoupling, ground plane design, signal reflection, crosstalk, and noise problems which occur in high speed digital machines ( above 10 megahertz) but importantly it shows practical and real examples showing how to solve these problems.
Note: Even for a 10kHz clock the edges of that clock signal are at high frequency and are subject to noise and reflection so even there this book is a useful!
The Art of Electronics
Author: Paul Horowitz, Winfield Hill
This is the best
all round book on electronics covering a vast amount of ideas and
information. Although this is University grade stuff the information is
presented in an informal and maths free way (as much as possible).
The emphasis is on showing how devices and systems work using practical ideas and concepts so learning is not just theoretical - but theory is there as well.
It is useful as a reference source of ideas as well as showing for all types of electroncs learning from basic devices to processor systems covering all kinds of circuits in between.

Bill Mitchell (born March 19, 1960) is a Republican member of the Illinois House of Representatives, representing the 87th district since 1999.
Mitchell is a graduate of Eastern Illinois University, receiving a B.A. in Political Science in 1982.

Schumpeter, Marshall, and Neo-Schumpeterian Evolutionary Economics
The focus of evolutionary economics is a process of continuous and irreversible economic and organizational change over time. Currently there is no agreement on the explanation of economic evolution. From the perspective of the history of economic thought, at first the theoretical approaches of Schumpeter and Marshall with regard to economic development or evolution are dealt with in detail. For both authors technical and economic innovations are the engine of economic change. According to Schumpeter, they are created through newly established firms as the agents of change. For Marshall, innovations and economic development are a side effect of the manufacturing process and the division of labour. Technical and economic changes go off both gradually (Marshall) or discontinuously (Schumpeter). After that, a concept of neo-Schumpeterian evolutionary economics is elaborated. Evolution is understood as a process of change that leads to the adaptation of complex systems, the result of the causal interaction between variation, selection and retention of variety leading to continuity over time. It has gained wide application to the theory of innovation and later to resource-based theories of the firm. Modern evolutionary economics includes the determinants of new knowledge and innovations into its analysis. Business enterprises not only follow their routine behaviour, in a dynamic view they also show capabilities to restructure their given resources and to build new ones. To sum up, technical and economic evolution are both the result of the unintentionalmarket selection through competitive forces of the environment, and of the intentional, voluntary entrepreneurial choices, based on the firm's resources and dynamic capabilities.

One dead, two injured after private jet crash at Aspen-Pitkin County Airport
Ryan Summerlin January 30, 2014
One person is dead and two are injured as the result of an aircraft that crashed at Aspen-Pitkin County Airport some time before 1 p.m. today, Pitkin County Sheriff Joe DiSalvo confirmed.
The airport is closed as emergency crews respond to the scene. The aircraft was a private jet, Undersheriff Ron Ryan confirmed.
In a statement issued at 1:56 p.m., one person was severly injured and another one sustained minor injuries. Three people were onboard the plane.
The plane was a Canadair Challenger 601 corporate jet, and departed Tucson, Ariz., at 10:04 a.m., according to published reports. After it came to a rest upside down on the Aspen runway, a fire erupted, witnesses at the scene said.
Comedian Kevin Nealon, who was at the airport, tweeted: "Horrible plane crash here at Aspen airport. Exploded into flames as it was landing. I think it was a private jet."

Import prices up again in August 2005
September 12, 2005
The price index for U.S. imports increased 1.3 percent in August. Rising petroleum prices led the increase for the third consecutive month.
Following the pattern of the prior two months, the August increase was driven by higher petroleum prices, which rose 7.1 percent. August marked the third consecutive month that the price index for petroleum imports recorded its highest level since the index was first published in 1982. Petroleum prices rose 42.5 percent over the past 12 months.
Nonpetroleum prices were unchanged in August after decreasing 0.2 percent in each of the three preceding months. Despite those recent declines, nonpetroleum prices increased 1.8 percent for the year ended in August.
Prices of exports declined for the third time in the past four months, edging down 0.1 percent in August. Prices for both agricultural and nonagricultural exports contributed to the August decline, decreasing 0.6 percent and 0.1 percent, respectively.
These data are from the BLS International Price program. Import and export price data are subject to revision. Learn more in "U.S. Import and Export Price Indexes - August 2005" (PDF) (TXT), news release USDL 05-1676. Note: Hurricane Katrina struck Florida and the Gulf Coast after the August survey reference period and therefore did not affect the August import and export price indexes.

Earlham's dining hall, SAGA, may be all-you-can-eat, but good luck getting your money's worth. As a freshman, you will be required to purchase a 19-meal-per-week plan, which you can only use at SAGA or for meal exchange at the Coffee Shop on weeknights. The salad bar—complete with baby spinach, fresh veggies, feta cheese, oil and balsamic vinegar—provides all the necessary ingredients for a snazzy and satisfying semi-gourmet meal. Most mornings, you can order eggs to be cooked as you like, and at lunch and dinnertime, toasters, microwaves, and two frying pans can help you get creative with a classy grilled cheese or stir-fry with rice. If you miss home cooking, fill up a to-go box with some raw ingredients to make a meal in your dorm kitchen. SAGA food isn't bad at first, but it gets redundant after a while.
Fortunately, as you move up in the world, you can drop your meal plan altogether (if you're not still living in a dorm). All in all, semi-greasy SAGA food will get you through your first year and give you time to decide for yourself how you want to eat for the next three years. Even if you don't cook, delicious treats are there if you know where to look for them. Don't miss out on a free gourmet meal on Farm Days (every Saturday at Miller Farm) or at Sabbat dinner in the JCC on Friday nights.

Very nice vase & I love it but a little large.
This vase is beautiful. The colors fit in with my colors in my living room. A little large but works great with my décor.
This vase is much nicer than I expected for the price. Love it.
This base is even prettier than the picture. The colors are vibrant and the design has been beautifully crafted! I was concerned about breakage enroute, but it arrived well packaged and no chips or breaks.

The 2010 NFL season is fast approaching, and perhaps no group of fans in the NFL have as much cautious optimism about what it will bring as the fans in Kansas City.
A year ago, Chiefs owner Clark Hunt gutted the front office after the team's worst season in franchise history. And while many pundits questioned the youth of his new general manager and head coach, no one could question their pedigrees.
General manager Scott Pioli and head coach Todd Haley both came in with resumes that included Super Bowls and family ties to some of the best minds in the history of the NFL. And so the quest began in 2009, to turn the Chiefs into a dominant contender in the AFC.
While the team did improve and doubled its win total to four games in 2009, most of the season was spent finding the right combination of players that could help this team be successful.
By the team's final game, a 44-24 blowout of the division rival Broncos in Denver, Haley's team was clicking on almost all cylinders. For the Chiefs in 2010, Pioli and Haley hope to have found a few players to have this team hitting on all cylinders for their season opener on Monday Night Football against the San Diego Chargers.
Here are the 10 things to keep an eye on when training camp begins for the Chiefs, 45 minutes north of Kansas City in St. Joseph, MO on July 30th.

…to my personal and professional workspace, more journal than sales pitch, shared openly since 1998. Have a look around – and contact me if you think we might have something to talk about or do together. I'd be glad to hear about the projects and breakthroughs you're working on.
Since 1991, I've worked as Michael Herman Associates' principal consultant (designer, facilitator, manager and coach), serving leaders, champions and associates, in teams and much larger groups, at every level of the organization – frequently at times of significant change and transformation. I'm best known for bespoke approaches informed by wide-ranging practices and experience and for my work in Open Space and Inviting Organization. How inviting is your organization?
Team and Enterprise Agility – active engagement, high performance and adaptive learning (innovation, improvement, transformation) – need to be invited, supported and cultivated. When we drive, impose or insist on these things, with conventional corporate messaging, arbitrary mandates, and scripted trainings, we accidentally (but assuredly) diminish resilience and results in organization. I offer a simple, powerful alternative: bringing people together, getting things done, and growing more of what works – by invitation.
When the old ways break down and new opportunities arise, I can help guide strategic or cultural shifts, adapt or accelerate established processes, create breakthrough products or programs, strengthen connections across networks, silos and groups, and address similarly complex issues and tensions. Invitation is the difference that makes a difference.
What large or small things can we do now – to invite and support more agile thinking, faster learning, and better whole-business performance? This is what I want to find out together.

Social Interactions, Thresholds, and Unemployment in Neighborhoods
This paper finds that the predicted unemployment rate in a community increases dramatically when the fraction of neighborhood residents with college degrees drops below twenty percent. This threshold behavior provides empirical support for "epidemic" theories of inner-city unemployment. Using a structural model with unobserved neighborhood heterogeneity in productivity due to sorting, I show that sorting alone cannot generate the observed thresholds without also implying a wage distribution which is inconsistent with that observed in microeconomic data. Social interaction effects are thus a necessary element in any suitable explanation for the data.

T-Mobile's Sold-Out-Everywhere HTC HD2 Just Might Make You a Blockbuster Customer All Over Again
As I cast about for a new cellphone and provider, I am considering the generally well-regarded HTC HD2 from T-Mobile, despite having once vowed never to return to T-Mobile after it dropped the call during which my wife informed me she was going into labor. The phone went on sale today, and I probably would have bought one today -- at the low, low price of $200 with a contract -- had they not sold out citywide. (A salesman at West Village says he expect more next week; the Inwood and Lemmon location has no idea.) But when I do find one -- and, now, to the point of my post -- that'll just bring me this much closer to being a Blockbuster customer again.
Because, if you're unaware, the HTC HD2 comes with Blockbuster on Demand, which will allow you to download and watch its titles, well, from anywhere. (Though why it picked Ferris Bueller's Day Off and Forrest Gump as its "premium" freebies remains yet one more unfathomable mystery among Blockbuster's myriad questionable moves.) Among the countless why-tech announcements made by the downtown Dallas-based company over the last year or so, the HTC HD2 relationship is easily the biggest yet. And, as CNNMoney's David Goldman notes today, "The new service is also expected to be available on Android and Windows Mobile phones soon."
Not that Goldman and the analysts to whom he spoke for his story are impressed; the piece isn't headlined "Blockbuster is 'bleeding to death'" because it's upbeat. The word Band-Aid is bandied about, and those keeping an eye on the company burdened with $1 billion in debt say this new app is worth a few million, at most, and nothing to get too excited about. Still, it's a start -- better than bankruptcy.
Oddly, most analysts are more enthused about yesterday's announcement, during which Blockbuster more or less just reiterated its deal with Warner Bros., which gives Blockbuster a 28-day jump on Netflix and Redbox and Warners a bigger cut. (Update: I've been informed by someone who knows about these things that one thing the press release didn't say yesterday is that the Warners agreement will allow Blockbuster to stock nearly double the inventory of the studio's titles in stores the day they are released, which is important given the revenue-sharing agreement between the two.) Others are less impressed: Sure, they say, this may prop up Blockbuster in the short term, but in the end it'll only alienate those who long ago swore off the late-fee-charging Blockbuster for envelopes and parking-lot kiosks.

text: It would appear that the Libyans have started removing the old destroyed hangars and piled all the "trash and rubble" to one end. It would seem they have removed tanks that were underneath the hangars outside. Don't know if they are recoverable or also will be trashed. Finally, the concrete slab seems to be scorched but probably not damaged to the point where it has to be replaced, it will be interesting to see if they just rebuild over the slab. This is a possibility as other hangars have already been simply replaced.

Former San Francisco Giants pitcher Kirk Rueter called it a career on Monday, March 6th, 2006. With a career record of 130-92 and a career ERA of 4.27, Rueter said "I'm a full-time husband and a full-time father now."
Rueter joined the Giants from the Montreal Expos in the middle of the 1996 season, and stayed with the Giants for 10 years, before being designated for assignment in late 2005. He won 105 games with the Giants, passing Mike McCormick for the title of winningest southpaw in the history of the San Francisco Giants.
Known affectionately as 'Woody,' after his resemblance to the happy-go-lucky cowboy in Disney's "Toy Story" films, Rueter charmed San Francisco fans with consistent results despite often being ridiculed for having below-average 'stuff.' He won games with control and guile, and did it consistently for the Giants, posting 7 consecutive winning seasons from 1997 through 2003.
Rueter had signed with the St. Louis Cardinals in the offseason, his favorite team as a child, in hopes of continuing his career, but had second thoughts as the spring began. "It was a great run for me, and I don't consider myself anything but a Giant,"
With the Giants, Rueter was on the mound for key games for 3 division champions and started Game 4 of the 2002 World Series against the then-Anaheim Angels and a relief stint in Game 7. "I started Game 4 in San Francisco. As a kid, everyone dreams of that," Rueter said regarding some of his career highlights. He also started the first ever game at AT&T Park, and pitched key games throughout his career, including a stirring victory at home in the 2002 NL Championship Series against the Cardinals, and the first game of a late-season two game series sweep against the rival Los Angeles Dodgers, a sweep that put them tied for first in the NL West and a series most often regarded as a turning point for a franchise that has been a playoff contender nearly every season since.
General Manager Brian Sabean had words of praise for him. "When he went out to pitch, everyone felt it was a win day," Sabean said. "The guys liked playing behind him. His record is evidence that he had more talent than he was given credit for."
Sabean plans to give him his due credit, as the team plans to honor Rueter with a special day at AT&T Park sometime during the 2006 season.
Until then, Rueter plans to enjoy time with his family. "I love baseball," he says. "The Giants have been unbelievably good to me. I'm going to miss the fifth day, but I won't miss the road trips and being away from my family."
