LucidLogix Technologies, a company that develops "universal" multi-GPU technology that is said to be more advanced than ATI CrossFire or Nvidia SLI, has secured $18 million in series C round of funding from Rho Ventures and some others. Last year the startup received funding from Intel Capital, which may be an indicator that the company does have something advanced to offer the industry.
The investment from Rho Ventures with participation from existing investors Genesis Partners and Giza Venture Capital is the largest to date and brings total capitalization of Lucid to $32 million. It is noteworthy that the company that is focused on developing products aimed at premium-class personal computers and similar devices received funding amid economic downturn.
Lucid intends to use the funds for commercializing the company's already announced and demonstrated Hydra multi-GPU technology and development of next generation products. It is interesting to note that LucidLogix promised to start volume shipments of the Hydra 100 engine for multi-GPU applications in Q4 2008, but there are a little more than two months left in the year 2008 and there are still no signs of Lucid's Hydra approaching the market.
The Hydra engine sits between the chipset and several GPUs and acts like a dispatch processor within a graphics processing unit (GPU) to distribute tasks among the chips. The technology drives the GPUs, performing scalable rendering of a particular image or scene, and relies on "unique adaptive decomposition and acceleration algorithms to overcome bottlenecks". The Hydra engine combines a PCI Express 1.1. system-on-chip (Tensilica Diamond 212GP programmable general purpose processor) with exclusive software technologies that load-balances graphics processing tasks, delivering near-linear to above-linear performance with two, three or more graphics cards, according to the company's promises.
"We believe there is potential for the multi-GPU market and have confidence in the Lucid approach. The Hydra scalable graphics processing technology has the ability to affect the price performance paradigm in systems of all types. We are looking forward to seeing the fruits of this powerful partnership. And while the Lucid Hydra engine at first glance is impressive, what makes the company even more attractive is the team of engineers behind the innovation," said Jeff Grammer, a partner at Rho Ventures.

Forget economic developmentJuly 12,2014
The headline expresses the overt or implied attitude of a fairly significant portion of Vermont. Some people enjoy the sparse population, homey village atmosphere and lack of the fast-paced rat race of the big cities. Some want to maintain the Mom and Pop local businesses and block the mindless mega-corporations that care nothing about the individuals or families. Some came here to get back to nature and dont want either people or industry to despoil the landscape and environment. We also seem to have a number of like-minded politicians who make policies that often negate any economic development.
Is there any particular motivation to have economic development? One reason might be high and rising taxes. It is paradoxical that the attraction of our sparse population is one of the major causes of the high taxes that contribute to the reason we have a sparse population of people and businesses. Statistics bear this out. The per capita tax burden in Vermont is more than 10 percent above the national average. The Anderson Economic Group ranked Vermonts business climate at number 49.
We can speculate how we achieve this dubious ranking while maintaining one of the lowest unemployment rates in the nation, but one indicator is that we have over 20,000 businesses with fewer than 10 employees, but only one-tenth of one percent of that number of employers with 1,000 or more employees. Most of us are working, but the jobs are in very small businesses that offer few benefits and pay relatively little in business taxes.
The most recent battle over access to Berlin Pond might be seen as symbolic of the whole state people who are here already dont really want more people to come. Unfortunately, keeping the population small means that the tax burden is split among fewer people. Imagine if the residents living around Berlin Pond were charged a high tax for their exclusive access to the pond. I imagine that their resistance to others using the pond would quickly change if additional pond users contributed to, and lowered their taxes. So it is with the state.
Our challenge is to strike a balance between safeguarding what we all like about Vermont while also increasing the tax base so that we can afford to live here. How do we do that? In simple terms, the solution is to get more income into the state without having a large population increase. The optimum solution would be to increase the number of tax-paying businesses and the average salary of the employees. To do that, we need to attract businesses like the IBM microchip facility in Essex.
IBM employs 4,000 workers at good salaries and supports a large local economy. Unfortunately, IBM may be selling the facility and it is unknown now if the new buyer will keep it here or move it out of state. The response to this situation from the Vermont politicians is typical and misguided. There are discussions of spending $4.5 million on the IBM campus, improving public transportation, lowering utility costs and offering massive tax incentives. Figures as high as $15 million or more are being discussed as the total immediate investment to keep the facility operating. That is not economic development that is simply buying jobs in an extremely inefficient manner. If successful, we will have spent a vast sum of money and given away tax revenue for years in the future in order to maintain a status quo. We could do so much better.
Build it and they will come is an adage used to justify spending by politicians since the Romans. Unfortunately, most often they incorrectly define the it. Study after study have shown that optimizing infrastructure will improve business and tax revenue. Like planting certain kinds of seeds to produce a specific crop, we can invest in specific infrastructure improvements to achieve specific goals. If Vermont invested that $15 million wisely, we could strike that balance between growth and taxes. Specifically:
n High-speed Internet: A study in Michigan estimated that a statewide fiber optic broadband network would increase state revenue by $440 billion over 10 years. We might not achieve that gain, but the Internet is undoubtedly the superhighway of commerce in the 21st century. North Dakota has nearly the same size population as Vermont but they have a tax revenue surplus so much so, they recently returned $400 million to the residents. They attribute this mostly to a modern internet infrastructure that supports their massive credit card processing industry an industry that relies entirely on that infrastructure.
n Transportation: Big businesses thrive on easy transportation. A decent size airport for people and shipping is essential to many businesses. A state capital without a real airport shouts out that we dont want business growth here.
n A large technically skilled work force: No company will come here if they do not think there are enough skilled employees. If we offered education and technical training good enough to attract out-of-state students, they, in turn, would attract the high-paying technology companies.
n Affordable housing: If we want to attract companies that will employ a lot of people, we have to be able to offer affordable housing to those workers and public transportation to and from their work sites.
Lets not buy jobs or bribe companies to stay here if there is a more efficient and productive way to spend the same money on goal-oriented, selective economic development.

The U.S. Supreme Court issued a pair of significant, but incomplete victories for supporters of same sex marriage on Wednesday.
In one case, the court says legally married same-sex couples should get the same federal benefits as heterosexual couples.
In the second 5-4 ruling, the justices found that California's Proposition 8 ban on same sex marriage is unconstitutional. However, they did not touch the issue of same-sex marriage itself.
Click here to vote in our online poll about the rulings.
President Barack Obama praised the court's ruling on the federal marriage act, which he labeled "discrimination enshrined in law."
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said he was disappointed in the outcome of the federal marriage case and hoped states continue to define marriage as the union of a man and a woman.
"We're disappointed in the short-term results and the short-term questions that remain unsettled, but the public conversation continues and that's a good thing," said the Rev. Rob Schenck, president of the Evangelical Church Alliance, which opposes same-sex marriage.
Gov. Neil Abercrombie said, "In Hawaii, we believe in fairness, justice and human equality, and that everyone is entitled to the same rights and responsibilities as everyone else, including the ability to get married. So I am pleased that the Supreme Court, in the Hollingsworth v. Perry case, did not overturn the federal district court's ruling striking down Proposition 8 -- which attempted to bar same sex marriage in California -- thereby effectively allowing same sex couples in California to be married."
"Although the Supreme Court did not directly require that same sex couples in other states be allowed to marry, I am encouraged by the fact that language in the Windsor ruling supports my position in the Hawaii lawsuit, which is currently pending in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. In that lawsuit, I argue the Constitution's equal protection clause requires same sex marriage in all states, including Hawaii," Gov. Abercrombie. "I believe my position to support a constitutional right to same sex marriage in Hawaii and elsewhere was given a substantial boost by today's Supreme Court rulings. I will continue to work to assure justice and equality for all."
Click here to read more about the same-sex marriage cases that the Supreme Court ruled on.
"What the court did was they found that DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act) itself was unconstitutional and violated the Fifth Amendment and that there should be no discrimination against couples because of who they happened to be married," said Rep. Colleen Hanabusa. "And I thought that was a great victory and one that was long overdue for same-sex couples."
Pro same-sex marriage group Hawaii United for Marriage applauded the Supreme Court decisions that struck down a key section of the Defense of Marriage Act and cleared the way for legal same- sex marriages in California.
"This is a huge victory for loving, married couples and their families across the country," said Lois Perrin, Legal Director of the ACLU of Hawaii and founding member of HUM. "This high court ruling affirms that all committed couples who marry deserve equal legal respect and treatment."
Perrin said DOMA forced the federal government to pick and choose among marriages, and discriminate against some families through what became known as the "gay exception." That exception caused pain and financial harm.
Wednesday's ruling means that couples in states which recognize marriage between same-sex couples can better protect one another and their families because they will finally be included in the federal safety net.
However, the Supreme Court's decision will not change the fact that same-sex couples are not allowed to marry in Hawaii because the state has not enacted a marriage equality bill. Lawmakers approved a resolution to convene a task force to study marriage equality, and that task force has been instructed to examine the high court's rulings in both the DOMA case and the Proposition 8 case in California.
Same-sex marriage has been adopted by 12 states and the District of Columbia. Another 18,000 couples were married in California during a brief period when same-sex unions were legal there.
"I believe that the Hawaii Legislature is going to look very seriously as to whether it is Hawaii's time," said Rep. Hanabusa.

The Eternal Beach-Body Plan
Phase III - Week 9: Workout III
Exercise II: Squat
Reps: 10
Set up a barbell on the supports of a squat rack. Step underneath the bar, squeeze your shoulder blades together, and let the bar touch your upper traps. Grab the bar with your hands as close together as is comfortable. Nudge the bar off the rack, take three steps backward, and stand with your feet a bit wider than shoulder-width apart and your toes turned slightly outward [1]. Take a deep breath and bend your hips and knees, lowering your body as far as you can [2]. Explode back upward to the starting position. That's one rep.

The Illinois State Board of Education has developed this draft Response to Intervention (RtI) plan in a collaborative effort with the Illinois Education Association, Illinois Federation of Teachers, Illinois Association of Administrators of Special Education, Illinois Association of School Administrators, Regional Offices of Education and the Illinois State Advisory Council. This draft document is evolved from the basic definition of RtI to its present conceptual framework. The planning team has attempted to address the concerns of all stakeholders within the group and best practices for implementation of this statewide education initiative.
The document is still in its draft form and the collaborative group of stakeholders would like your input on the plan. We will take into consideration all comments and provide an opportunity for further discussion on Friday, December 21, 2007 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. If you are interested in hearing or participating in this discussion, please call 1-800-864-5102—passcode 8308702.
The final plan will be effective January 1, 2008, as outlined in by Illinois Administrative Code 226.130(b) (1). However, the stakeholder group will continue to monitor the effectiveness of the plan in meeting the needs of districts in implementing RtI statewide.
Written comments will be accepted at firstname.lastname@example.com. We ask that written comments be provided by the close of business Wednesday, December 19, 2007.

On Thursday, Dec. 19, three days after the 31st anniversary of Tammy Luna's death, Felix Alfredo Luna was brought before a grand jury and was indicted for manslaughter.
The 31-year-old case was reopened at the request of Nicole Rodriguez, daughter of Felix and the late Tammy Luna.
Nicole currently resides in Beeville, and requested to have the case re-opened when she got in contact with members of her mother's side of the family.
"I was raised by the Lunas, and they kept me away from my mom's side of the family," she said. "They told them to stay away from me and my sister."
Nicole said that her mother's side of the family reached out to her a few years ago and told her what happened that night.
"After they told us what happened, I called Sheriff Busby," she explained. "I've been talking with him for the past two years to reopen the case and investigate."
Sheriff Busby was one of the officers involved with the original case, 31 years ago. Nicole said he has been a "godsend" and an important part in the investigation.
Originally reported as an accident, Tammy Luna was thought to have jumped out of a moving vehicle during an argument with her husband. Nicole said that a closer investigation found scuff marks and wounds on her mother's body consistent with being pushed.
"I spent my whole life thinking that it was an accident," Nicole said. "I'm just so glad that there's finally justice."
Bond was set at $25,000, and Luna could face 2-10 years in prison.

What is your favorite movie?
When it comes to a favorite movie it's pretty much anything with Cary Grant... serious ones like "North by Northwest", "Notorious" and "An Affair to Remember" to silly ones like "My Favorite Wife", "The Philadelphia Story" or "Arsenic and Old Lace".
Do you have a personal motto or quote that inspires you?
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed
by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover."
- Mark Twain
In other words... go for it!
If you could interview one person, living or deceased who would it be?
I would love to interview and tour the White House with Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. I grew up watching her survive such a difficult time and she did it all with such grace. Although most people just remembered "Jackie" for her iconic fashion, I believe Jackie could give great insight into the happenings of the day and was making her opinions known as First Lady… but it was saved for behind the scenes.
What is your favorite way to spend a day off?
I love to not necessarily have a plan at all and take a little road trip without any agenda.
What sports team are you a big fan of?
When it comes to sports I am a hardcore Packer fan. My mom grew up in Wisconsin and my cousin married Packer Mike McCoy (defensive tackle #76). When it comes to college football though I am a huge Ohio State Buckeye fan. I grew up in Columbus and graduated from Ohio State University. In the last few years I have really started to follow soccer. My oldest daughter plays soccer in Onalaska and we like to watch the pros play too.
What one thing would you like to do better?
I love to cook and bake, but I want to be a gourmet cook. I would really like to be able to whip up unbelievable French and Italian cuisine and desserts.
What is your favorite food?
My Favorite food is chocolate, but not just any chocolate...it has to be the darkest, richest chocolate you can find.
What do you like about your job?
I use the same skills every day, but I never know how the day will unfold. I might have breaking news, the president could be in town, there could be severe weather or you could get to hear the story of a war hero. You learn something new every day. I love it!
What do you order on your pizza?
When it comes to pizza I like just about everything from just cheese to herbs or even meat lovers ... just don't ask me to eat cold, leftover pizza.
What can you tell us about your family?
I live with my two daughters in Onalaska with our dog "Coco" and our bunny. When I'm not at work I am running kids around like most moms to soccer practices, dance classes and piano lessons. Her family loves to go boating and spending time with family and friends.

KARNES CITY – Young Karnes City boxer, Jacob Coffman, displayed his tenacity and courage at the Texas state boxing championships on June 14-16 in Houston.
After winning his semi-final match, Coffman advanced to the final and was edged out in a hard-fought contest with Houston fighter Ephraim Bui, earning a silver medal in the 110 lb. division.
This previous May, Coffman displayed his champion's heart by going undefeated and winning the gold medal at the Junior Olympic regionals in Aransas Pass.
Coffman, 13, started boxing at the age of nine at Tocallos Boxing in Karnes City, and is trained by coaches Chris and Domingo Tobar, who have instilled in Coffman a work ethic, discipline, and fighting heart.
"He surprises me every time he goes into the ring," said Chris Tobar. "He's got so much heart. He has so much talent...he has it all."
When Coffman first came to Tocallos Boxing, he was a diamond in the rough, say his coaches. With the instruction, tutelage, and encouragement Coffman received in the fighter's trade, he turned his young life away from a negative path and steered toward a brighter, goal-oriented future.
"If you would've seen his attitude when he first started boxing, when he was nine years old, you would now see a 180 degree turn around," said Domingo Tobar. "His attitude has changed tremendously. If you would've known him three or four years ago, he was headed in the wrong direction. Now, he's not only a champion in boxing, he's also a champion in track. His graded have improved. He's just an awesome kid. "
Coffman and at least three other fighters from Tocallos Boxing will soon compete in the TAAF Games of Texas on July 25-28 in Corpus Christi. Coffman has won the gold in the event the past three years and will be gunning for his fourth consecutive gold.
Coffman enjoys sponsorship from RSI Services, Supreme Vacuum Services, and Marathon Oil in his tough and challenging quest to be the very best fighter he can be in the combat sport of boxing.
"He's just an awesome kid to work with," said Domingo Tobar of his young fighter. "Those are the kind of kids who will grow to make a difference in this world."
Tocallos Boxing is located at 202 E. Travis Street in Karnes City. For more inormation, contact Coach Chris Tobar at 830-358-3871.

10" Shallow-Mount Subwoofer with 1000 Watts Max. Power
250 Watts Nominal Power
Unique Design with just 3" Mounting Depth
Small Enclosure Use (0.35 ~ 0.7 Cubic Feet)
Suggested Price: $180.00
Check out Premier
The Premier TS-SW1041D is also available.
Our newest line of subwoofers are designed to provide wider installation options for a broad range of vehicles. These "Shallow-Mount" Subwoofers feature multiple patent-pending features to deliver the big bass performance of a full-size subwoofer, but in a compact design that can be installed either behind or under seats depending on the type of vehicle. The mounting depth is just 2-7/8" - less than half a typical subwoofer in this class.
This 10" shallow subwoofer handles 1000 watts max., 350 watts nominal power, and delivers deep bass with top-notch sound quality thanks to features like Pioneer's extremely strong and lightweight IMPP Composite Double Cone Woofer, the patent-pending M-shaped Surround, and more.
One of the new patent-pending features is called the "Air Suspension Control System". This design locks in air between the main cone and drive cone, ensuring smoother and more precise movement of the cones, for superior linearity. The locked-in air behaves like a spring, so there's no need for a traditional spider structure. The drive cone also deflects air pressure inside the enclosure, which further contributes to the remarkable bass of the small package.
|The TS-SW2541D subwoofer is extremely flexible for installation, able to fit almost anywhere. There are two available Subwoofer Enclosures - the UD-SW10B is designed to fit behind the seat of a truck, or in the back of an SUV or Minivan; and the UD-SW10U is design to fit under the rear seat of many pickup trucks.

- The 2000 periastron passage of PSR B1259-63
- Author(s)
- Connors, T. W.; Johnston, S.; Manchester, R. N.; McConnell, D.
- Abstract
- We report here on a sequence of 28 observations of the binary pulsar system PSR B1259−63/SS2883 at four radio frequencies made with the Australia Telescope Compact Array around the time of the 2000 periastron passage. Observations made on 2000 September 1 show that the apparent rotation measure (RM) of the pulsar reached a maximum of −14800 ± 1800 rad m−2 , some 700 times the value measured away from periastron, and is the largest astrophysical RM measured. This value, combined with the dispersion measure, implies a magnetic field in the wind of the Be star of 6 mG. We find that the light curve of the unpulsed emission is similar to that obtained during the 1997 periastron but that differences in detail imply that the emission disc of the Be star is thicker and/or of higher density. The behaviour of the light curve at late times is best modelled by the adiabatic expansion of a synchrotron bubble formed in the pulsar/disc interaction. The expansion rate of the bubble ∼12 km s−1 is surprisingly low but the derived magnetic field of 1.6 G close to that expected.

good enough... good job, kblack
Bill Walker getting a lot of play...that dunk was NASTY he just threw down (literally as I'm typing this). High energy guy looks pretty decent...
eek...just realized I made it 2009 not 2010...it has been a long day haha...and these knicks aren't making it go much better.
wow its like they dont even see mcgrady out there. pass it to him
There goes the theory about the Knicks needing size to play D. The Cavs don't have Shaq or Z and yet they keep us out of the lane and make us shoot jump shots. On the other end the Cavs making layups and easy shots. This game shows me the team either has no heart or terrible coaching.
so how is tmac looking?
Sell the whole team to New Zeeland or something. This is more than discusting. I can't take this much longer. GIVE ME A TEAM THAT CAN AND WANT TO PLAY DEFENSE.
Man the cavs are really exposing our defensive weakness.And TMAC could at least do something or at least try to be a threat..he's just standing around w/no productivity what a waste of minutes.He's not helping the team at all..either do something or don't play at all..he's hurting us even more.
Did Duhon shoot at the wrong basket, I saw nothing different that the first 50 games.? First 50 games 35 minutes, now with the new guards, which ain't no better than the old guards we still suck.
Think if your Lebron, do I really want to play with that cast?
That is Cleveland about 5 years ago. I need more press?
T-Mac is getting younger and his legs back, so he is ready to lobby Lebron, ya, that will seal the deal.
This is not even fun, it is like a pro team playing a Division II school.
Click, Head to Italy D'Antoni, bring Gallo (best shooter you ever saw with you, and Duhon to start 70% of your season and never break double digits).
I'm going to the game against the Pistons on Wednesday...
Gallinari looks like a deer in headlights every game now.

Freedom Newspapers: Chelle Delaney Firefighters battle a blaze Friday that destroyed the Sands Dorsey building in Tucumcari.
By Chelle Delaney: Freedom Newspapers
TUCUMCARI — Fire destroyed the historic two-story Sands Dorsey building at Second and Main streets in Tucumcari Friday.
No injuries were reported.
The blaze erupted about 5 p.m. Firefighters were still on the scene at 10 p.m. and occasional flames could still be seen on the roof.
Firefighters from the Tucumcari Fire Department along with volunteer firefighters from neighboring districts worked feverishly to keep the blaze from spreading to other buildings.
Bob Hengstenberg, the owner of the building, said work was being done on the roof when the fire broke out.
Sharon and Doug Quarles, owners of the Gallery 111, located in the building, with the help of friends were able to empty their gallery of artwork.
The artists and muralists have their gallery on the first floor of the building.
The Sands Dorsey building was also known as the Federal Building and was built in the early 1900s, according to the Web site fineartamerica.com, which posts information about Gallery 111.

Theater Review: Have we lost our French heritage?By Jim Lowe
Staff Writer | March 30,2013Jim Lowe / Staff photo
Abby Paige attempts to make her mothers tourtiere in Piecework: When We Were French.MONTPELIER There was a time, not so long ago, that the French language was heard regularly around central Vermont. Abby Paige celebrates that heritage in her entertaining and revealing one-woman show, Piecework: When We Were French, part of Lost Nation Theaters Winterfest 2013.
Opening and closing the show as the housekeeper at the rectory of St. Josephs felt just so authentic for those of us who grew up in Montpelier when it was half Catholic (French and Irish, with a smattering of Italian and Spanish). Paiges banter as the veteran housekeeper aroused so many memories of the areas ethnic-laden past most authentically.
Created in 2009 for Burlingtons Lake Champlain 400 festival and first presented by Lost Nation, this 70-minute series of vignettes celebrates Vermonts deep French heritage with both sadness and humor. Thursdays performance at City Hall Arts Center, though not hugely different from 2010, proved more cohesive and compelling.
In short the show is celebratory, entertaining and deeply touching.
Paige, a veteran actress, uses her own life as a jumping-off point. Burlington-bred in a French-Canadian family she had virtually lost touch with her French heritage, unable to speak the language save for some high school efforts. She decided to do something about it this show.
The vignettes range from the aforementioned housekeeper to a teen girl to a schoolteacher to a woman valiantly attempting to make her mothers tourtiere, a delicious French-Canadian meat pie. Interspersed, adding authenticity, were bits of recordings from Paiges many interviews with French-Canadians.
The teen girl proved most entertaining as well as illuminating as she explained her feelings about her somewhat illusive French heritage. Her priceless descriptions of family trips to Quebec painted a beautiful and authentic picture of the joys of rural French-Canadian life. And it was funny.
Not so funny was the discrimination the French settlers found when moving to Vermont for the innocent reason of supporting their families. This was effectively related by a schoolteacher who also showed how the French arrived earlier than the English and were not truly colonizers.
All this sounds as if this one-woman show was academic, but it was anything but. It was an affectionate portrait of a now-dying culture that was once a huge part of Vermont life. And it was also terribly funny.
One particularly telling moment was when it was pointed out that American French teachers looking down on Canadian French was telling an entire country that it spoke its own language wrong.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Rep.

Wind and sunJanuary 04,2013
One of the provisions of the fiscal cliff-averting bill passed on Tuesday night was an extension of the energy tax credit that promotes the development of wind energy technology.
The energy tax credit has been important for wind developers in Vermont, including Green Mountain Power, which is responsible for the controversial wind project atop the Lowell Mountain ridgeline. It is even more useful in the states with wide open spaces and much wind to exploit, such as Texas, Washington, Iowa and California. In those regions of open, unobstructed topography wind turbines have gone up by the thousands, providing useful income and tax revenues for rural residents and local governments, while generating clean, carbon-free electricity. Thus, wind power has become one of the fastest growing segments of the energy industry, and the Obama administration has made an effort to promote it as part of its green energy strategy.
But you wouldnt know it from the increasing public din in Vermont about wind power. In response to growing concern about wind development here, two senators, Joe Benning of Caledonia County and Robert Hartwell of Bennington County, plan to introduce legislation calling for a three-year moratorium on mountaintop wind projects.
It appears that Vermonters are already putting in place their own kind of moratorium. Residents of four towns in Rutland County Hubbardton, Pittsford, West Rutland and Castleton have all but unanimously rejected a proposal by Reunion Power to build a wind project on a mountain called Grandpas Knob. In response, the developer has said the project is now in limbo. Residents in the Windham region have also responded with alarm to plans for a wind project there.
Its no mystery why Vermont residents would be resistant to large-scale wind energy while residents of other rural regions are receptive. Rural in Vermont is different from rural elsewhere. In Vermont our topography is more or less always right on top of us. The population is widely dispersed through the landscape, so there are few truly open spaces. Almost any wind project is going to be near someones home. The state lacks the kind of wide-open spaces that characterize the West and Midwest, where large uninhabited regions are made to order for wind energy. The open farmland of the Midwest means that the installation of wind turbines need not bother most people.
In addition, Vermonters have an emotional and intimate bond with their mountains. There is no mountain in Vermont that is just some random, unimportant mountain. People love their mountains, as GMP has learned in Lowell.
And yet Shumlin and his administration are right to maintain a focus on the development of green energy and not to be stampeded into a blanket rejection of wind power. Shumlin has said that if local residents reject a project, he will not support it. Thus, the moratorium option is available locally. But some wind projects may be appropriate in some places. The fear that the state will be overrun with wind turbines is unrealistic. Rather, some additional wind projects could continue to add to the states green energy total, which is a good thing as long as nearby residents are willing to accept it.
The energy tax credit is a useful mechanism for getting sustainable energy projects up and running. Certainly, nuclear and fossil fuel energy sources have enjoyed government benefits that far outstrip anything wind developers might be getting in the effort to get their technology off the ground. And once their turbines are up, the power is free and clean.
In the long run, Vermont may find that solar power has greater potential than wind, particularly in the summer months, when the utilities encounter peak energy usage. GMP is just getting started with its solar initiative in Rutland, and other municipalities can be expected to join in. We need to continue to say yes to sustainable energy, even as we refine our understanding of what types of energy development are appropriate for our beautiful, mountainous state.MORE IN EditorialsProtesters converged on a bank in Montpelier early this week to show their solidarity with the...

DS is 9 months old, and has been eating solids (fruits & veggies pureed and a little chunky) for almost 3 months. About two weeks ago, we started to give him some Cheerios and he loves them. It's a great source of entertainment!
Over the weekend, he had four instances of choking... one that actually make him vomit the cheerio mush back up.
Has this happened with anyone else? I think he must be putting too many in his mouth at once? We gave him a cup with some water after that, so that he could drink and eat them together.
I'm wondering if maybe I should take a break from the Cheerios for a while and maybe buy some puffs. Those desolve easier, right? Thoughts?

Head, Study for the Portrait of Mme S., 1892
Edgar DegasFrench, 1834-1917

Not on view
Throughout his career Edgar Degas was an extraordinarily successful—albeit unconventional—portraitist who gathered as his sitters family, friends and the dancers in whom he took an interest. He was, however, less successful working in three dimensions, often leaving his clay studies unresolved. This portrait of a dancer who posed for Degas at age 19, displays his challenges with the medium. Even though the studies of this premier ballerina of the Paris Opéra appear to be unfinished, Degas's sculpted portraits, along with those painted, drawn and photographed, reinforce his commitment to the genre.

A blog about my journey with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome including HHV 6, EBV, C. Pneumonia, Bartonella, Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, and Biotoxin Illness
Friday, October 3, 2008
A letter to SSDI from my doctor
Here's a copy of the letter:
I have been treating ***** since April 18, 2008. She suffers from debilitating multi-system complaints that meet diagnostic criteria for Chronic Fatigue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS). As you know, CFIDS is a legitimate medical condition, recognized by the CDC, that is unusual because its diagnosis does not depend upon objective laboratory or physical exam findings. The diagnosis is based entirely on subjective complaints, after excluding other recognized medical conditions. Of note, she has a medical history of hysterectomy, hay fever, and a past episode of adhesive capsulitis that she has recovered from. None of these medical conditions contribute to or cause her fatigue.
CDC Diagnostic Criteria for Chronic Faitgue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome:
• Clinically evaluated, unexplained, persistent or relapsing fatigue new of definite onset; not relieved by rest; results in substantial loss of function of work, school, social or personal activities AND 4 of the following: (also, CBC, ESR, chemistry panel, TSH, etc must be normal)
o Self-reported impairment in short term memory or concentration
o Sore throat
o Tender cervical or axillary nodes
o Myalgia
o Multi-joint pain, no swelling or erythema
o HA of new pattern and severity
o Unrefreshing sleep
o Post-exertional malaise lasting greater than or equal to 24 h
She meets diagnostic criteria for CFIDS. The symptoms started in July 2007. She demonstrates absence of any other medical or psychological condition that could account for these symptoms (absence of hypothyroid, blood dyscrasias, normal CBC, ESR, chemistry panel, etc). She has profound disabling relapsing fatigue lasting > 6 months not relieved by rest. She has self-reported impaired memory, myalgias, headaches, unrefreshing sleep, post-exertional fatigue and malaise lasting more than 24 hours. She has intermittent sore throat, tender lymph nodes and joint pains.
Of note, she does have some positive bands on Western Blot for borrelia but does not meet case definition for Lyme. She is undergoing empiric treatment for babesia and lyme, though as stated above, lab evidence does not support this diagnosis.
She has received nutritional and graded exercise counseling and is following through on treatment recommendations, though her clinical improvement has been minimal. She also has IgG antibody positivity to HHV-6 and EBV.
She must rest or sleep 19-22 hours per day because of the profound fatigue.
Functional Capacity:
Standing: less than 15 minutes at a time, limited by faitgue
Sitting: can sit for an hour at a time, limited by fatigue
Concentration: significantly impaired to a degree that would prevent desk work
Lifting, bending, pushing, pulling: cannot do any of these activities secondary to fatigue
Her prognosis is poor. CFIDS is a devastating illness that frequently lasts 10 or more years. However, some patients do recover sooner. She will continue treatment and we will follow her progress, hoping that she may recover in the next few years.
Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
I have an appointment with him on Tuesday. I plan on asking him if he believes my prognosis is poor or if he wrote that because it would help my case. I'm trying to console myself that he wrote it to help my case though I know in my heart he's not the type of person to exagerrate things.
My lawyer thought it was a great letter. He and I don't have the same perspective though. I can't live like this for a few more years much less 10 or more. I don't know how some people do it.
Am I destined to end up alone in Section 8 housing or worse, a nursing home? The most horrible thing about this illness is it doesn't kill you quickly. It's a slow, slow death all the while watching from the sidelines as your life disappears before you as if some magic trick. I'd like to talk with the magician and let him/her know that I'm ready for the trick to be over.

Hi there. Actually, you are still in the window where you have a good chance for recovery. Many people, if they are going to improve, will improve within the first 2-3 years of getting this stuff. There are nutritional supplements that you can take, and watch the exercise. Dr. Nancy Klimas said that CFIDS sufferers usually crash if they exercise more than 15 mins at a time, but they can do 5 mins of exercise and then rest 5 mins and then do another 5 mins of exercise, basically forever.
My husband has CFIDS and he was not diagnosed with it until he had it for 10 years. He is now disabled from it and has been unable to work since 1999. He went on disability at a young age -- 36. Ths is a terrible, awful illness and my heart goes out to you. I hope you fel better soon.

Don't let the prognosis get you down. The truth is that no one knows what will happen or what anyone's chances of recovery are.
I've now had CFS for 6 years and am doing better than ever, thanks to anti-virals and low-dose naltrexone. And my treatment for a recent Lyme infection seems to have worked completely!
Dr. Bell says that there is a greater chance of recovery for those who became ill suddenly and for those whose symptoms vary somewhat from day-to-day.
You have a doctor who not only understands CFS but is also treating your underlying infections - that's a huge advantage. His letter was very well-written. I hope it helps you get SSDI...and I hope that you won't need it for very long!!
Hang in there, listen to your body and rest proactively, and remember to take some time for yourself to have fun and enjoy your life!

My partner has had this amd so many other conditions for, well, most her life--she is 52; I used to care for her but then I got MS, now old age has beaten us down (She got fibromyalgia about 15 years ago, so good sleep out of question), I worry every night---what will happen to us? She needs to quit working, go on SSDI, she is so exhausted, how will she do it? How will we live? (She has worked 20 yrs at a universiy) She has a great doctor(s), the drug don't help her every drug/treatment has a side effect her other conditions can't handle. I guess we can't know the future. Some nursing homes are not so bad. Life is a fickle creature.

State of the Arts: Lost Nation Theater relies on its communityBy Jim LoweStefan Hard / Staff Photo
Lost Nation Theater founders Kim Bent, left, and Kathleen Keenan went to the Statehouse last week for a ceremony in which Gov. Peter Shumlin honored the Montpelier theater company.
One of Vermonts smallest professional theater companies, Lost Nation Theater which has now occupied Montpelier City Hall for 25 years barely makes it financially each season.
But its artistic contributions have convinced the capital city that it needs its own professional theater, which both the city government and the community support.
Its a miracle, said Kathleen Keenan, who runs the theater with her husband, founder Kim Bent.
Im not sure that I know why, she said. This stage was here, it was empty. We showed people we could have the vision. We demonstrated to people what it could be with a few bits of fabric and 10 lights.
Lost Nations current production may explain much of its staying power. Ransom, an original play with music, is based on letters home from West Rochester soldier Ransom Towle. Originally created by the Rochester community theater, the White River Valley Players, Lost Nation has turned it into a full-fledged production, directed by Bent.
Ransom has caught the regions attention, including that of Vermont Public Radio and Gov. Peter Shumlin who just made 2013 the Year of Lost Nation Theater.
We are a professional company, Keenan said. Weve always been community minded we want this to be relevant.
She added, I think weve succeeded because weve been able to combine the spontaneity and improvisational excitement of wanting to do a show thats the heart of good community theater with some kind of professional structure.
Bent added, To maintain that, to bring those two things together is really appropriate for the community.
Bent, a Vermont native, created Lost Nation Theater as a solo touring company in 1977. Keenan, a professional singer-songwriter as well as being trained in theater, met Bent while the two were involved in projects at Long Island University, and they began working together in 1984.
Montpelier City Hall was the original home for David Mamet and William H. Macys now famous Atlantic Theater Company. When the troupe moved to Burlington, Montpelier City Council advertised in Variety magazine for a professional theater to replace it.
Not surprisingly, local theater companies were irate. In response, Bent and Keenan, together with other local groups like Unadilla Theatre and Phantom Theater, created a summer season in 1989.
We literally had two weeks to put it together, Keenan said. We brought up shows we knew people in New York were doing. We did a couple of our own and other theaters participated.
Of course we all lost our shirts, and it was so much work, she said.
The other theaters left and Lost Nation Theater remained.
City Hall Arts Center, in those days, existed in name only. The cavernous auditorium was just a big open space with a little stage at one end. Over the years, Lost Nation and the city have developed it into a sophisticated center that can be configured into anything from a small intimate theater to the wide open space where elections are held.
Currently, Lost Nation Theater annually produces six full productions, from musicals to comedies to Shakespeare, from April to October, plus two or three youth shows. For its annual Winterfest series, Lost Nation presents four shows from other organizations. Two holiday events, Halloweens Poe Spooktacular and Its a Wonderful Life at Christmas, plus other special events, round out the season.
Thats done with a $300,000 annual cash budget, but the amount doubles when in-kind donations of services and materials are included. The biggest example is the theaters agreement with the city.
For managing City Hall Arts Center, which is used by others as well as Lost Nation, the theater receives the space rent-free and the city covers heat and electricity. Conversely, it requires Lost Nation to employ a full-time technical director year-round.
Lost Nations income sources are typical for Vermonts professional theaters. A little more than half comes from earned income, ticket sales and program fees. The remainder is from private contributions, sponsorships and grants.
At this point we need to increase both, Keenan said. Right now, were hanging on. Its up and down and this is definitely a down.
Recently, expenses that the theater has no control over have increased sharply. In addition to the accounting costs of the new sales tax, workers compensation fees have nearly tripled.
How do we make that up? Keenan said. Theres staff that doesnt get hired. So I am the box office person, the marketing person, and the producing artistic director. Thats not something that we can continue.
And the recession has hit the company, as well.
Weve seen an erosion in our support base, certainly, over the past three years, Bent said.
Some regular patrons have either reduced their contributions, or stopped them altogether. Attendance is also down.
At the same time, the quality of the shows that weve been doing is getting better and better and weve started to receive these awards out of the blue, Bent said. In some ways weve mitigated (the downturn). People get excited about a show and attendance builds to the end.
Weve got really talented people who are magicians and can do a lot with a little, Keenan said.
Weve built up a core group that really understands what were trying to do and the talent to really pull it off, Bent said. Making choices that includes those kinds of folks is becoming important more and more.
Finally, Lost Nation Theater looks to its community which has supported it through thick and thin. The company already has the support of 100 to 150 volunteers each year. Three years ago, when Bent was temporarily stricken with a life-threatening illness, people came through.
There were folks that said OK, and either came back to work for the theater for free or for hardly anything at all, Keenan said. So I was never really worried.
That isnt the first time that the community showed its support of Bent and Keenan. A decade ago, during its production of Sweeney Todd, seats in the barbers chair of death were sold as a fundraiser Murder for Sale.
We got a summons from the City Council, Keenan said. We had never been summoned before. So we go into this city council meeting. What do we do? What do we say? We were out of our minds.
The City Council had issued a proclamation that Keenan and Bent get out of town.
Unknown to them, Dona Bate and Ron Wild, longtime Lost Nation supporters, had raised the funds in the community for Bent and Keenan to spend three weeks in England and Ireland.
It was our first vacation ever, Keenan said.
We have been blessed by other people who believe in this vision professional theater that speaks to the community, Bent said.MORE IN Central VermontMIDDLEBURY According to WebMD, Dystonia is a movement disorder that causes a persons muscles ...
