Sickle cell anemia is an inherited form of anemia — a condition in which there aren't enough healthy red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen throughout your body.
Normally, your red blood cells are flexible and round, moving easily through your blood vessels. In sickle cell anemia, the red blood cells become rigid and sticky and are shaped like sickles or crescent moons. These irregularly shaped cells can get stuck in small blood vessels, which can slow or block blood flow and oxygen to parts of the body.
There's no cure for most people with sickle cell anemia. However, treatments can relieve pain and help prevent further problems associated with sickle cell anemia.

How much do you get from a single pumping session.
If you wouldn't mind sharing I am wondering a few things about it also, aside from just how much...
Do you work?
Time of day? - does the amount differ?
Are you and EP'r or both Nursing and Pumping
Do you get more at home/work?
I might think of more questions, but this should suffice for now.

It's been a bit quiet on the blogging front lately, especially the Joomla extensions area - so first of all sorry for taking so long to get bugfixes out. Anyway the first of many is the automated tag cloud for Joomla! I have made, I thought the bug with removing non standard characters had been removed, however, the system was still stripping out some scandinavian/russian/german characters.
I have revised the preg replace and have tested it on a few different setups to great success so now all german, russian, scandinavian characters should appear as normal! There is still a bug in that I don't have a comprehensive list of "standard" words for all languages which is a problem, this is something I am hoping to remedy by giving the option to translate the default list using the Google translate API.
Additionally I have added a new parameter which now allows you to use k2 Tags in this automated tag cloud. Again I have kept this module in Beta as I don't feel it is completely finished due to language problems.

The Country Club at Mirasol â Sunrise Course
Palm Beach Gardens, Florida
June 1-4, 2004
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. â Starting his round with seven straight pars followed by three birdies in the second round of the PING Junior at Mirasol, Rolex Junior All-American Toby Ragland, 17, of Jacksonville, Fla., leads the Boys Division with a two-day total of 141. In the Girls Division, 15-year-olds So-Hyun Park of Bradenton, Fla., and Jessica Yadloczky of Cassleberry, Fla., lead the field by 1 stroke with matching two-day totals of 146.
Conducted by the American Junior Golf Association, the 54-hole event is being held at The Country Club at Mirasol â Sunrise Course, home of the PGA TOURâs Honda Classic, and features 84 boys and girls, ages 12-18, from 16 states. Highlighting the field are five Rolex Junior All-Americans including Ragland, Jon McLean of Weston, Fla., Nicholas Smith of Ocala, Fla., Whitney Myers of East Berlin, Pa., and Christie Reed of Oak Ridge, Tenn.
Ragland, who carded a 69 in the second round, said the Sunrise Course fits him well. âItâs really tough around the greens and I usually hit a lot of greens,â he said. âItâs kind of an advantage for me.â
Ragland said he saw improvements in his swing after his first-round score of 72. âI struggled with my swing yesterday but I had started hitting it really well on the back nine,â he said. âThat carried into today.â
Both Park and Yadloczky credited their putting for their share of the lead.
âI didnât hit many greens or fairways so I had to depend on my putting,â Yadloczky said. âAnd it pulled me through.â
Yadloczky had back-to-back birdies on Nos. 5 and 6, both par-5s, as well as a birdie on her last hole of the day, No. 9. âI was on fire -- I was craving more,â she said. âI canât wait to come back again next year.â
Park, who took only 29 putts for the round, earned one of seven birdies on the par-3 No. 11.
âI almost had a hole-in-one â it was like this close,â she said, indicating a length of a few inches.
And while the sweltering daytime high temperature of 89 compounded by high humidity made many of the competitors uncomfortable, Park hardly noticed the weather. âI concentrated so much that I didnât realize it was so hot,â Park said.
In the Boys Division, Jason Elliott of Palm Harbor, Fla., David Palm of Jacksonville, Fla., and Tyler Rucarean of Gainsville, Fla., follow Ragland with two-day totals of 142. Close behind are Nicholas Smith of Ocala, Fla., and Hudson Swafford of Tallahassee, Fla., at 143.
Trailing Park and Yadloczky in the Girls Division with two-day totals of 147 are Hannah Brabb of Maitland, Fla., and first-round leader Jade Bollinger of Wellington, Fla.
The American Junior Golf Association is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the overall growth and development of young men and women who aspire to earn college golf scholarships through competitive junior golf. The AJGA has a membership (boys and girls ages 12-18) of approximately 5,000 junior golfers from 50 states and 30 foreign countries.
Titleist, the AJGAâs National Sponsor, has been the catalyst and driving force behind the Associationâs success since 1989. Rolex Watch USA, a supporter of the AJGA since 1983, became the inaugural AJGA Premier Partner in 2004.

New Year: New Bird
"175," responds Kimball Garrett, the Museum's ornithology collections manager and resident bird nerd, when someone asked him how many birds he's documented around the Museum. In the last few days of 2013 Kimball checked off another bird that had never before been documented in Exposition Park, this brought Kimball's ever growing list to its current pinnacle.
Kimball behind the scenes in Ornithology
Although Kimball has been keeping track of birds in Exposition Park for 30 years now (WOW), this is nothing compared to his track record for Los Angeles. Kimball grew up in the Hollywood Hills where his parents had a bird feeder in their backyard. As a teenager Kimball would explore further and further afield, all the while documenting his bird observations in a journal.

Basement fire damages Middleton home
Fire had progressed before firefighters arrived
A basement fire damaged a home in Middleton Friday, according to the Middleton Fire Department.
Firefighters were called to 7505 Voss Parkway late Friday morning by a neighbor who said he came home to smell smoke in his house and saw heavy smoke coming from his neighbor's home.
Fire officials at the scene told WISC-TV the fire was coming from the basement, transferred through the floor to the main entry area and was well-advanced by the time they arrived.
A backdraft resulted in heavy smoldering inside the home, according to fire officials. The floors of the home partially collapsed.
The cause of the fire and damage estimates are yet to be determined.

Forbes ranks Wis. as one of the worst states for business
Forbes Magazine ranks Wisconsin as one of the worst states in the country to do business.
Wisconsin ranks 42nd on Forbes' annual list of the Best States for Business, which is worse than last year, when it was ranked 40th.
One of the biggest measures weighing the state down is job growth.
Gov. Scott Walker has made job growth a cornerstone of his campaign, pledging to create 250,000 jobs by 2015.
According to Forbes Magazine, that promise doesn't look so promising.
Forbes' latest ranking of the Best States for Business said Wisconsin has had slightly negative job growth this year and projects that job growth will be second-worst in the nation through 2016.
VIDEO: To view this story's video, visit News8000.com from your personal computer
"We had protests, and recalls and another wave of recalls. We've had national challenges with the economy, most recently with the fiscal cliff. All those are reasons to make excuses. But in the end, the reason we picked 250,000 jobs as a goal is because we wanted 250,000 more families to have someone in their household who was earning a living, helping those families, helping improve the quality of life in this state," said Walker at a stop in La Crosse Tuesday.
Wisconsin ranking as No. 42 is based on six factors. It's ranked 35th in business costs, 39th in labor supply, 30th in regulatory environment, 29th in economic climate, 43rd in growth prospects and 10th in quality of life.
Wisconsin doesn't do this badly on some other publications' business climate rankings. Chief Executive Magazine ranked Wisconsin as No. 20 and CNBC said we're No. 17.
Walker chalks it up to the fact that different rankings are calculated with different measurements.
"They put a disproportionately higher than other rankings emphasis on workforce development. It's an area we believe there is a need on. We don't discount that," said Walker. "It's one of our priorities in trying to improve the connection between people looking for work and the skills they need."
Walker said he'd like to use some of the state's budget surplus to expand job opportunities, which could include investing in workforce development, creating a fund that could be tapped into by entrepreneurs looking to buy capital or doing more for property tax relief.
Forbes ranked Utah as the best state for business on this year's list. Maine ranked as the worst.

Seniors not a reason for ATV access
I would like to comment on a recent letter from Ken White. Ken's letter was truly spoken, these people in state and federal government are mostly out for themselves. I'm not sure which body is on the bottom end, but from the Board of Education on up through state and federal government, it seems after they are in awhile, and they forget what and whom they represent.
Every time you turn around, one of them has their hand out, like those running Elkins and the county. Take the land fill, for example. Seems these people can get all kinds of grants and money from various places if it's something to benefit Elkins or something a commissioner wants for the county.
I would like to say to the fellow at Valley Head who wants to open up our forest to ATVs and UTVs and is using senior citizens and disabled people as an excuse, I hope you don't get it done. Being a senior myself, I'm not for it.
He should know as well as anyone that once you start something like that, people aren't going to stay on road. They will have roads all through the woods. A lot of the people who ride ATVs don't care about other people's property, much less state and federal forests.

It is possible that the main title of the report Macroglossia is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
General Discussion
Macroglossia is the abnormal enlargement of the tongue. In rare cases, macroglossia occurs as an isolated finding that is present at birth (congenital). In many cases, macroglossia may occur secondary to a primary disorder that may be either congenital (e.g., Down syndrome or Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome) or acquired (e.g., as a result of trauma or malignancy). Symptoms and physical findings associated with macroglossia may include noisy, high-pitched breathing (stridor), snoring, and/or feeding difficulties. In some cases, the tongue may protrude from the mouth. When inherited, macroglossia is transmitted as an autosomal dominant genetic trait.

Prosecutors across the state would see a pay raise under the governor's budget.
More than seven million dollars has been set aside for raises for assistant D.A.'s and public defenders.
La Crosse county has six assistant D.A.'s that haven't seen a pay raise in about 5 years. The raises would be on a 17-step system depending on experience.
La Crosse Co. District Attorney Tim Gruenke says the raises would help retain prosecutors across the state. "Being a prosecutor is not something that people can just pick up right away, it takes a couple of years to get some experience, and once people have experience you hate to see them go, so this will help keep people here longer cause they'll know what they'll be making in the future and kind of make plans and it might be easier to attract people for this career because we can tell them, here is what you are going to be making instead of this kind of unknown."
Gruenke also says the raises are an important step, but lawmakers still need to address the prosecutor shortage across the state.

Almost Had It
Three-run homers are one of the most dreaded hits in baseball when they are hit against your team. Three runs is a lot, and to be able to get that many runs in one swing is a huge advantage for the team who hit it.
Last night, Josh Geer had a great outing, but his night was ruined by one swing: a three-run homer by Russell Branyan.
Josh threw well. He went six innings, allowing only those three runs from the homer, with three walks and three strikeouts.
Mike Adams threw a scoreless inning. But Edward Mujica took a tied game and gave it away. He allowed Franklin Gutierrez's seventh homer of the season to give the Mariners the lead. Gutierrez has hit four home runs against the Padres!! Crazy.
In the top of the second, the Padres got on the board thanks to my boy, Kevin Kouzmanoff! He hit his tenth homer of the season, a two-run blast that went 414 feet!!
Good job, Koozie :)
That gave the Padres a 2-0 lead. But the Mariners came back with the Russell homer.
In the fifth, Tony Gwynn drove in Will Venable to tie the game. But then Mujica gave up the home run, and that was that. We lost 4-3.
Scott Hairston threw out a runner at home, which was really cool. All of our hitters had one hit except Chase Headley and Scotty. We played well, but we didn't get enough.
But I am very pleased with the way the Padres have been playing in the last two games. I mean, this is more like it. This is what I'm used to; the Padres win the first game, the opposing team wins the second game, and then the Padres win the rubber game and the series.
In 2007, that's what I could expect from the team every series. I always knew they could win two out of three, and it seemed like they followed a certain pattern. I haven't been able to expect that for a long time, so this feels really good. I just hope they can stick to the plan.
Today Wade LeBlanc is pitching against Jarrod Washburn. LeBlanc was OK in his first start of the season last Friday, but he needs to go deeper into the game today. We really really need that from him. It's a day game, so that will be cool. Let's get this boys!!
I wanted to give a quick update on Trevor, since I haven't in a while. Trevor had 17 saves in 18 opportunities this season (Heath has 20. HA!). He's been good with the Brewers, and I really am happy for him, in a sad way. I'm glad that he's having a good season, and that he's healthy. And I still really really hope he comes back for at least a few games next season. We've got to get him back in a Padres uniform. We miss you Trevor!!
6 Comments
I was wondering how you were feeling about Trevor these days, so thanks for updating us!
Hey Kaybee
It should be interesting to see how LeBlanc does. I hope Trevor continues his success with the Brewers. I only hope Heath Bell has more saves though😉. Anyways, we need to win today!!!!!! Go Padres!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a tough game last night! It was so close too. Kouz is just on fire so I give him props. I'm hoping Wade LeBlanc will give his best shot this afternoon. TREVOR!! Man, I still miss him😦 Best of luck to him.
a three run homer hit against your team is better than 6 homeruns hit against your team. I could not believe my boys gave up that many homeruns.
Are you ready for the circus arrival on July 3rd?
Tough luck on the loss. But you guys have been playing well this year…it's hard to step out of the dominating shadow of Them.

Renault's new-look Koleos compact crossover arrives in NZ later this month with fresh styling and an updated equipment list.
The Koleos Phase 2 represents the first significant facelift for Renault's inaugural compact SUV since it was originally launched in late 2008.
The Koleos is an important model in the NZ Renault range since the franchise was reinvigorated early this year. "The mix of models – 2WD and 4WD and both petrol and diesel engines has given the market a value for money choice," said Stephen Kenchington, General Manager of Renault New Zealand.
The most popular model in NZ has been the 4WD Koleos with CVT transmission and standard leather upholstery and remains available as a free upgrade for $43,990.
Design changes on the Koleos Phase 2 include a revised interior and a new-look front-end that takes styling cues from Renault's other Korean produced models, the Fluence and Latitude sedans. There's a more rounded front bumper and all-new bonnet and front quarter panels that wrap around narrower headlights and a more traditional six-sided, three-bar chromed grille.
Inside, the Koleos will feature new seat upholsteries and interior trims, while the dashboard has been revised with a more contemporary instrument panel housing and lighting. Continue reading "Renault Koleos Phase 2 arrives in NZ this month" »

Bruce Davison reflects on his 40-year acting career and the lead in Noel Coward's 'A Song at Twilight'
By Carl Kozlowski 03/20/2014
Forty years ago, Bruce Davison was a young and handsome actor scoring a string of leads in attention-getting films such as "Willard" in which he played a man whose love for his pet rats led to murderous results. But as he surveyed the career paths of his competitors, Davison realized that stardom was often illusory.
"I asked a director, Robert Aldrich, what the key was to lasting," Davison recalls. "And he said that it might be nice to be the hot guy in town for a couple of years, but it almost never lasts, but that if I was willing to be a supporting character actor, I could really raise a family in Hollywood."
The advice paid off, as Davison has amassed a resume of 203 film and television roles in the decades since, including a staggering nine projects releasing in 2014 alone. Yet the 67-year-old still has plenty of energy to burn, and he's taking it to the stage of the Pasadena Playhouse through April 13 as the lead in a revival of Noel Coward's classic comedy "A Song at Twilight."
In it, Davison stars opposite veteran actress Sharon Lawrence (best known for "NYPD Blue") as celebrated author Hugo Latymer, who has entered old age with everything a man could wish for: wealth, success, fantastic friends, and a life filled with laughter, luxury and travel. But despite all of that, his fear of intimacy and a public scandal kept him from embracing the one true love in his life, and now he wonders if he would trade the success for a chance to do it all again.
"I'm sure it's Coward's hardest play, and it came at the end of his life, when he was too ill to perform it on Broadway but he had done it in London theater," says Davison. "He always said that he had the talent to amuse and entertain, but this is his 'King Lear,' coming to terms with the end of his life. It starts out light and gets quite a bit deeper and denser as it progresses."
Davison offers up a pair of intriguing facts about Coward and the play, noting that the playwright himself starred as Latymer. And contrary to frequent opinion, Coward didn't write it about himself, but rather about famous author W. Somerset Maugham as "a cloak for his own journey."
The Playhouse is proving to be an interesting stop on Davison's own journey as well. He recalls having to decide whether to study acting there or at New York University in the 1960s before opting for NYU, while his teaming with Lawrence marks a creative partnership that is starting after years of close personal friendship and mutual career admiration.
Thinking back to his Philadelphia boyhood, Davison recalls "playing Flash Gordon in my backyard after school" but focusing his artistic inclinations on painting and art all the way until he started college at Penn State. It was there that he took a theater appreciation course, and "took to it like a duck to water." He left after three years, transferring to NYU for his final two years of study.
His big break came with "Willard," a movie that is indelibly marked in horror fans' memories for its dark comic wit and endless supply of rats. These days, the lead actor in a film like that would have the luxury of special effects to keep himself safe from the pestilent rodents, but back then Davison was forced to get up close and personal with them.
"It was certainly the days before CGI so there really were over 1,600 rats, with peanut butter all over me for them to chase after," explains Davison. "The frustrations it took to get a rat to run into a briefcase in 20 or 30 takes were also severe. I worked with [co-star Ernest] Borgnine again a few months before he died and he turned to his wife and said 'Honey, here's the young boy who played Willard with me.' He was 94 and sharp as a tack."
Davison has spent the past decade portraying seemingly every evil politician in a major movie — a fact that he attributes to his role as Sen. Kelly in the endless stream of "X-Men" movies. In an age of movies and TV shows about politics, it's a lucrative niche that he waxes philosophical about.
"You get typecast every five years by what your last success was," he notes wryly. "And get used to rejection if you want to make it in this town, because it's always a numbers game where you get 10,000 no's for every yes."
Davison's greatest career moment thus far, however, was his stunning turn as a gay man helping his lover let go and die of AIDS in the 1990 film "Longtime Companion." It was one of the first movies to address the AIDS crisis, and his heartbreaking work was seared into the minds of viewers, earning him an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor.
The decision to play that role, and to remain committed to fighting AIDS in his charitable work and with other roles in AIDS-themed films, stemmed from Davison's own losses in the epidemic. In the six months surrounding his work on "Companion," he lost his agent, commercial agent and manager to the disease.
"At that period of time, it was a holocaust," recalls Davison. "People asked if the death was a difficult scene or hard scene. … The script girl was six feet away from me, and her brother had died at the time. The makeup man was crying on the front porch because he was going to be dead in six months. Our director was ill, unbeknownst to us, and was dead within a year.
"I had gone through my mother's death, and the director told the actor playing my lover to let it go, and he told me this wasn't about how I felt but about letting him go. That is a moment that confronts everyone at some point in their life."
"A Song at Twilight" is performed through April 13 at the Pasadena Playhouse, 39 S. El Molino Ave., Pasadena. Tickets are $24 to $100. Call (626) 356-7529.

I have always done better on a low-carb diet. I ate carbs during my pregnancy though and after the birth. Adria is two months now and I would like to start cracking down on the carbs. Here is my dilemna: I ate low-carb for a week. Then some friends visited and I carbed out for a week. This week I went back to low-carbs and Adria has been extremely fussy. She hasn't napped well during the day so that adds to the crankiness. Is it possible she is going through a carb withdrawal like me? She is crying and it's not her normal "I'm hungry" cry. She goes straight to the "I'm very upset" cry. We took her temp - no fever. Burped constantly - no burps but lots of spit up, pretty much everything. Gave catnip/fennel drops for gas - temporary fix. My husband has come home to a ragged, tired wife and baby.
Any suggestions?

On our last lobby redesign blog post, we shared the latest discoveries; a 40 foot skylight, 18 foot high ceilings, hand-laid mosaic tile, and intricate wood details—all dating back over 100 years.
There is so much history that once contributed to the Hotel Belleclaire's reputation as the "flashiest hotel in New York City". What originally began as a lobby redesign has emerged into a restoration and enhancement project. After extensive research on Emery Roth's original design elements; we have decided that the traditional details will be refashioned using historical references and modern techniques.
In 1903, the entrance to our hotel was first positioned on Broadway and the lobby consisted of several formal dining rooms, a Flemish café, and a Palm Garden. Today, guests enter through our 77th Street entrance, which was originally the Palm Garden area—set beneath the skylight. Although the entrance will remain on 77th Street; the 40 foot skylight is prominent in the design and will allow for natural lighting, just as it did in 1903. The ornately carved wooden doors inside the lobby (remaining true to its 1903 location) will help recreate the historic and elegant ambience of the Hotel Belleclaire. The mosaic-tiled floor will be completely restored, and carefully selected furnishings will decorate the expansive space.
It was among the first hotels to offer in-room telephone service—a luxury in 1903, to present-day complimentary high speed wireless—Hotel Belleclaire continues to set higher standards for comfort, convenience, and style. The legend and the legacy remain, as the treasured New York City keepsake is redesigned for the twenty first century.

Educator Licensure
License Registration
To be valid, all Illinois licenses must be registered with the Regional Superintendent of Schools where the license holder works or lives. Registration fees are calculated at $10 per year of a license's validity. For instance, a five year professional educator license would require a total amount of $50 in registration fees (5 years x $10 per year = $50). An individual needs to pay a separate fee to register each license held (i.e., professional educator license, educator license with stipulations or substitute teaching license) for the license's period of validity (i.e., the time period during which the license is valid).
- When do you register your license?
- When your license is first issued.
- When you complete a renewal cycle and your professional development has been submitted to and approved by your Regional Office of Education. This will occur every 5 years for most licenses. Make sure you are aware of your validity period as it is the license holder's responsibility to maintain their license properly.
- Log into your ELIS account. http://isbe.net/ELIS/default.htm.
- Select the registration tab and follow the prompts to pay your fee online.
An individual is required to register his or her license in each region where he or she teaches or in any county of the State, if the individual is not yet employed, but is required to pay a registration fee in only one region. Therefore, an individual who moves from one region to another after paying a registration fee for a particular period of time:
- will be required to register his or her license in the new region; but
- will not be required to pay any additional registration fee.
When a registration fee is paid, the amount due shall be the amount required to register the license for its entire period of validity.
Please refer to Section 25.400 of the Illinois Administrative Code for more information.

Preview: Phillies v. Padres – 7:05 pm Eastern.
The Phillies (4-4, 3rd) are now home for a seven-games home stand, starting with a four-games weekend series with the San Diego Padres (7-3, T-1st National League West). The first game of the four-game series will be played tonight at Citizens Bank Park and will start after 7:05 pm Eastern. The Phillies' starter will be their ace Cole Hamels (0-1, 17.18), who is coming off a rocky start against the Colorado Rockies on April 10. In that game, he gave up seven runs on eleven hits and a walk, while striking out only one batter, in three and two-thirds innings of work, in the Phils' 10-3 lost. He will be trying to recover from that poor start. The Padres will counter with Chris Young (2-0, 1.38), who is coming off a win against the San Francisco Giants on April 12, where he pitched seven strong innings, giving up no runs on four hits, while striking out seven, in the Padres' 6-1 win. He will be looking to increase his record to 3-0 at the Phillies' expense. The Phillies will be looking for their first winning series at home.
Before tonight's ballgame, the Phillies will be doing several tributes in honor of the late Harry Kalas, who died before last Monday's afternoon game in Washington, D.C. During the home stand, the flag in Ashburn Alley will be hung at half-mast in his honor, while his signature will be displayed on the field. Also, there will be a black drape placed in front of both the Phillies' TV and radio broadcast booths. The Phillies will rename the TV broadcast booth in his honor, calling it the Harry Kalas Broadcast Booth: "That's ball's outta here!", as a companion to the radio broadcast booth which is named the Richie 'Whitey" Ashburn Broadcast Booth: "This game's easy, Harry." in honor of Hall of Fame outfielder, fellow broadcaster, and Kalas' friend, Richie Ashburn. Comcast Network Philadelphia has announced that there will be no commentary made during the first half inning of tonight's game. On the outfield wall, there will be a billboard honoring Kalas. Throughout the rest of the season, a recording of Kalas' famous catch phrase: "Outta here !" will be played on the PA system everytime a Phillie batter hits a home run. During tonight's seventh-inning stretch, on PhanaVision, a video with him singing 'High Hopes' will be shown, and fans will be encouraged to sing along.
Before the game, which fans are encouraged to attend early, his three sons, Todd, Brad and Kane will throw out the ceremonial first pitch. There will be held a moment of silence in Kalas' honor, before his son, Kane, sings the national anthem. A video on his career will also be shown on PhanaVision. Lastly, all fans in attendence will be giving an 8 X 10 color picture of Harry Kalas, a commemorative program, and a poem that he wrote in 2002 as a tribute to the fans.

Since I can't comment on your blog about the outcome of this game – I'll comment here! The Baltimore Orioles also blew a big lead last night against my Red Sox. Good luck today!
Huh? Well, I'd found out why you couldn't comment in the other post. I'd accidently removed the ability to comment on that particular post. I'd just corrected it. As for the Orioles, guess my team won't be the only one letting a game like that get away during the season. Thanks for the luck, I'm hoping the team will do better during the rest of the series.

Stand with ObamaSeptember 12,2013
As the great powers maneuver and threaten, Syria burns. It is a historic tragedy that threatens the fragile ties that have bound a fraying network of diverse peoples in an age-old civilization.
That President Bashar Assad's government now finds itself in the position of defending an ancient Christian community against attacking Islamist rebels is an irony that might twist Westerners in knots. What side are we supposed to be on?
We are not supposed to be on the side of poison gas, though we have been on that side before, as when the Reagan administration ignored Saddam Hussein's use of gas against Iranians and Kurds.
Now Assad has used poison gas against fellow Syrians, and the Obama administration is trying to persuade Congress to authorize a retaliatory strike by American forces.
That he has involved Congress in the debate was either deeply mistaken or deeply correct. If quick action was needed, it would have been best to steer clear of Congress' paralysis and dysfunction. But if public support is important, then getting support from Congress might at least enlist the legislative branch in persuading the public that an attack on Syria is justified.
Sens. Patrick Leahy and Bernard Sanders and Rep. Peter Welch are not yet persuaded. The foolish adventures of the last decade, as well as the difficulties in Afghanistan, have left them with a bitter taste about military campaigns in the Middle East and Asia.
At the same time, they are three members of Congress who are especially sensitive to the demands of human rights, and they are not likely to look away at the depredations of dictators such as Assad. Nor should they.
One reason to remain wary of action in Syria is that U.S. attacks inevitably radicalize part of the Muslim world, even when those attacks are justified, as in Afghanistan. In some respects we cannot help but make things worse when we land with big feet among Muslim peoples. Our wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have helped created new generations of jihadis. Whatever side we are on, we are making enemies of someone. (See: Egypt.)
Now the Russians and the Syrians are holding out the possibility that intervention might be avoided. Syria has agreed with a Russian plan to put its chemical weapons under international supervision. The Obama administration immediately warned that the plan might be a stalling tactic. It would most certainly become a protracted cat-and-mouse game between the Assad regime and international inspectors. But it puts the onus on Assad never to use chemical weapons again.
The offer comes at a time when Obama's bid for support faces uncertain prospects in Congress. Congress would be well advised to strengthen Obama's hand by passing a resolution authorizing an attack if Syria reneges on promises to give up its chemical weapons. The United States would be securing a gain by putting those hideous weapons out of bounds and establishing that Assad is a pariah for having used them.
It is unclear whether the proposal will survive even a day as high-stakes diplomacy runs its course, involving the French, among others. But Obama is right to force the issue on chemical weapons.
Meanwhile, the war continues in Syria, and the Middle East appears to be entering a phase of tragic loss. Built into the logic of every tyranny are the elements of its own undoing, and the nations of the region have had a long history of tyranny.
Now subject peoples are struggling to breathe free, even if their causes do not promise freedom for everyone.
For Islamic radicals, freedom is the freedom to do it their way. The liberal dream of a pluralistic society, where Sunni lives peacefully next to Shia, Muslim next to Christian and Jew, is cowering in the shadows of the old marketplaces, where the shrapnel is flying.
A few rockets launched by America are not going to redeem that dream, though they could remind Assad that the world is watching and he will have to pay a price for his ruthlessness.

When TV news anchor Susan Siman '87 Marcou of Madison, WI, got the call from CBS News in New York that she'd be part of a report by Katie Couric on the Wisconsin floods in June, she called upon her forensics training from her days at North Central College. It was exciting and frightening all at once, she admits.
"It all happened very spontaneously–there was no time to prepare," she says of the June 10 national news broadcast. "It was (Professor of Speech Communication/Theatre) Richard Paine who prepared me for it, and I was hoping that maybe he was watching that night and that he would have been proud of one of his former students."
If Paine had watched, he might've noticed that her last name had been shortened from Simanaitis to Siman at the suggestion of her first boss in the broadcast news business, "because my name sounded like a disease," she says.
As evening news anchor at WISC-TV in Madison, Siman has experienced a busy summer, covering severe flooding in Wisconsin locations like Gays Mills and Lake Delton, which burst from its banks and drained into the Wisconsin River. One work day she spent in a motor boat, surveying damage and reporting. On other less eventful days, she covered stories like the presidential candidates' visits to Madison.
Siman's path to North Central started at Syracuse University, where she pursued a journalism major. In her junior year, she was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and returned to her family's Naperville home for treatment and recovery. She decided to complete her English major and degree at North Central and soon realized it was the best decision she'd ever made.
"I joined the forensics team and it changed my life," she says. "The skills I use every day in my job, I learned from forensics. How to think on your feet and be informative and persuasive—I learned it all from Richard Paine. All aspiring journalists should participate in forensics."
After graduation, Siman took her first job in Rhinelander, WI, and later moved to a television station in Champaign, IL. Her career path has included news reporting, anchoring a morning show and now anchoring evening newscasts at 5:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. She's been in Madison for 15 years and finds that "it's a great place to live, a lot like Naperville."

Job numbers released by the state of Wisconsin on Thursday may have some scratching their heads.
The numbers are out, ahead of a national report on jobs, and show jobs are up -- but unemployment is, too.
On Thursday, Gov. Scott Walker announced that the number of jobs in Wisconsin is up.
"The good news for us in the state of Wisconsin is in the month of June we saw a new job increase of around 9,500 jobs," Walker said.
WISC-TV found this claim needs clarification. The Department of Workforce Development said the state has gained a net of 9,500 jobs from May to June, but the unemployment rate went up slightly from 7.4 percent to 7.6 percent in that same time.
The seemingly contradictory numbers have some scratching their heads.
"It's very confusing because they come from two different sources of data," said Charles Franklin, a political scientist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
The actual jobs numbers come from a DWD and Bureau of Labor Statistics survey of employers that asks how many people are on their payrolls.
Unemployment figures are from an entirely separate survey, and the "unemployment rate" actually reflects the number of people who say they are currently looking for work.
"One of the paradoxes is that after a recession, as the jobs start to come back, more people that had gotten discouraged and quit looking for work start to look," said Franklin. "So that makes the survey show a higher number of people looking for jobs and can make the unemployment rate bounce up even more if people are getting jobs."
Franklin said one number need not negate the other, and that unemployment does not have to mean there were layoffs in the state.
DWD's numbers show Wisconsin lost 3,400 government jobs from May to June. But in general, state statistics show the state has been on a jobs upswing since the beginning of 2010, WISC-TV reported.
"While these two data sources track pretty well with each other over the long haul, from month to month they can either agree or disagree with each other by a bit, and that's part of what's going on right now," said Franklin.
Walker also said that Wisconsin's net job gain is half of the net job gain nationwide last month, which was 18,000 jobs.
The Massachusetts Department of Labor released similar statistics Thursday, saying it created 10,400 jobs last month, and Minnesota claimed adding 13,000 jobs.
A more accurate picture of nationwide job growth or loss is expected Friday, when all 50 states release their job growth numbers.

Farber: One of the great historical facts about the march was the difficulty in pulling off an event that was pioneered by a number of organizations and individuals with different definitions and investments of social change at the march.
(I see) the rich diversity of the "we": Although there are different groups and investments, you get a sense from photographs like these that it's not an "us" and a "them" but a "we".
It's not to erase the differences, or simply streamline them, but in co-existing, you get a richer vision of what social change can be.
CNN: How was this photography critical in the message of the march?
Farber: Leonard captured some important private reflective movements.
It's a lesson for us in thinking about great moments in history: what it takes to envision progress or possibility is both about moving forward and also about considering and questioning and stopping -- and having the patience for social change.
Part of what photography gives us is ... a sense of the high points of these great moments in history, as well as the unexpected glances that really capture the subjects (as) they have their own thoughts and own ideas, (and) relate to the broader group's perception throughout the day.

Reviews of this property
We stayed a couple of nights to Rob and Fang's place.
The room and facilities are all you need for a pleasant stay in Amsterdam.
It is comfortable, cozy, and functional.
Moreover, the area in which the apartment is located is fantastic. It is close to the main metro line which takes you in 6 minutes to the centraal station or to the main turistic sightseeing.
The area in which the apartment is located, is near the Amsteel. Thus, very quiet and you can also enjoy the walk along the river.
Finally, Rob and Fang and their two children are the best hosts you can find. Always happy to help and give you some tips.
Really happy to have met Rob and Fang. I would like to recommend to all.
The room and facilities were amazing. We love the well and with love to details designed room from Rob and Fang. In the clean room you will find everything you need.
The area, directly at the Amstel, is a very enjoyable place in Amsterdam. It is central located but nevertheless very quiet. The lodging is ideal to explore the city: You can make a pleasant walk along the Amstel to the old town of Amsterdam (15min)! Or in a few minutes you will reach the metro station (only 4 stations to central station). You can also make use of bikes - Rob will give it to you.
Furthermore there are many individual cafes and restaurant – pleasant to get breakfast, to stay there and enjoy an atmosphere with locals. Don't worry where to go – you will get many lovely tips from Rob – and we are sure: you will enjoy it like us.
We get perfect instructions from Rob and Fang in advance (how to arrive the room from the airport with train and metro) and during the whole residence.
Finally we would like to say: Rob and Fang are the best host, we are allowed to meet yet! Both are very pleasant and helpful. Rob and Fang thank you for all (-;
Rob & Fang were very attentive and helpful with us. The room was in very good conditions; very clean and comfortable.
the neighborhood is quiet.
I would repeat no doubt
We stayed with Rob and Fang for 5 nights and loved it. The room and facilities were amazing - so well designed and stylish. The area was ideal- just on the outskirts of the old town so a very pleasant 20 walk in past canals, parklands and lovely independent shops. There were plenty of local cafes, restaurants and bars - also a large local supermarket.
Rob gave us perfect instructions on how to reach the apartment from the airport on train and metro. (Metro stop is very close if you don't fancy the walk into town).
We also made use of 2 bikes which Rob made available for us. We would recommend a day trip to Haarlem by train- a lovely town.
We would like to thank Rob and Fang their hospitality and kindness. We have spent a wonderful stay. The house is very well equipped with everything needed for a stay, all very clean and welcoming. The location itself is ideal, but in a quiet neighborhood near the center of Amsterdam. They were very friendly giving us a couple of bikes, because of course Amsterdam must know it through its huge and fantastic bike path. Rob and Fang at any time provided us information and help tourist sites to visit and recommended for lunch or a beer sites. They are a very nice family and we recommend his house and of course our intention is to return to Amsterdam as it has encatado us. Bye Rob and Fang and her two children. Rosa and Jose
Quisieramos agradecer a Rob y a Fang su hospitalidad y amabilidad. Hemos pasado una estancia maravillosa. La casa está muy bien equipada con todo lo necesario para pasar unos días, todo muy limpio y acogedor. La ubicación de la misma es ideal, en un barrio tranquilo pero cerca del centro de Amsterdam. Fueron muy amables proporcionándonos un par de bicicletas, porque por supuesto, Amsterdam hay que conocerla a través de su enorme y fantástico carril bici. Rob y Fang nos facilitaron en todo momento información y ayuda sobre los sitios turísticos a visitar así como sitios recomendados para ir a comer o tomar una cerveza. Son una familia muy agradable y recomendamos su casa y por supuesto nuestra intención es volver a Amsterdam, ya que nos ha encatado. Un beso para Rob y Fang y sus dos niños. Rosa y Jose
We stayed one night! Rob and fishing have to give us valuable advice for our short stay in Amsterdam. The room is very nice and the location good if you have nothing against a little walk in the city.
Sehr herzliche Gastgeber! Rob und Fang haben uns wertvolle Tipps für unseren Kurzurlaub in Amsterdam geben. Das Zimmer ist sehr hübsch und die Lage gut, wenn man nichts gegen einen kleinen Spaziergang in die Stadt hat.
Robb and his family are very nice people and nice. Robb gives you addresses very well visited or experienced during your stay.
The room is very comfortable and very clean. Everything is tastefully decorated and very well equipped. The attention to detail in the home is worthy of hotels, (breakfast, towels ...)
We warmly recommend this rental property.
Thank you yet Robb for their hospitality.
Marion and Arthur
Robb et sa famille sont des personnes très agréables et gentilles. Robb vous donne des adresses très bien à visitées ou à expérimentées durant votre séjour.
La chambre est très confortable et très propre. Tout est décoré avec gout et très bien aménagé. Le soucis du détail dans l'accueil est digne des hôtels, (petit déjeuné, serviettes de bain …)
Nous recommandons très chaleureusement cette location.
Merci encore a Robb pour son accueil.
Marion et Arthur
We had a very nice time at catcher and Rob. The room is very neat and clean, we felt totally comfortable. Fang and Rob were with helpful tips to the side, be it for restaurant visits flea market stroll, shopping or the like. The location is highly recommended. In just a few minutes (max. 4 min walk) you can reach the metro and a well stocked supermarket.
Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit bei Fang und Rob. Das Zimmer ist sehr gepflegt und sauber, wir haben uns total wohlgefühlt. Fang und Rob standen mit hilfreichen Tipps zur Seite, sei es für Restaurantbesuch, Flohmarktbummel, Einkauf oder ähnliches. Die Lage ist sehr zu empfehlen. In nur wenigen Minuten (max. 4 min zu Fuß) erreicht man die Metro und einen gut sortierten Supermarkt.
My friend and I were happy to be able to experience the Dutch stay with Rob and Fang's family. They gave us good information on how to get good food and move around the neighborhood. It was a pleasant comfortable stay with them throughout the 3 days 2 nites. We chatted and got to know them and their brilliant two kids better. Hope I could come back again to stay with them again!

Green-driven B Lab opens office in Boulder
- published_in
- Today's News
B Lab Colorado will be housed at Impact HUB Boulder, a business accelerator and incubator at 1877 Broadway, No. 100, in Boulder.
Colorado is home to more than 30 certified B corporations, about 20 of which are in Boulder. The local B corp community led an effort to pass Colorado benefit corporation legislation in 2013, which will become effective April 1.
Being B Corp.-certified is similar to the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval for green-conscious companies. The designation comes from B Lab in Wayne, Pennsylvania. Companies looking for the designation go through an independent verification process in which they answer questions that show they are socially and environmentally conscious.
Coupounas, co-founder of Boulder-based outdoor manufacturer and retailer GoLite LLC, is a frequent public speaker on entrepreneurship, leadership and sustainability, and is a vocal champion of responsible business practices.
"Kim is a highly credible entrepreneur and leader who brings broad and deep business experience with special expertise in empowering diverse communities to achieve common objectives,´ said Andrew Kassoy, B Lab co-founder and Boulder native.
B Lab Colorado plans to open more offices in other Colorado cities.
B Lab will be hosting two free workshops on B corporations that are open to all businesses. The workshops will review the nature of this new corporate form, which businesses it is ideally suited for, how it differs from conventional structures and how to make the switch to a benefit corporation structure.
The workshops will be from 6 to 9 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 21, at Impact HUB Boulder, and from 4 to 7 p.m., Wednesday, Jan. 22, at Davis Graham & Stubbs, 1550 17th St., No 500, in downtown Denver.
Presenters will include attorneys Seth Henry of Blue Dot Advocates and Peter Schwartz of Davis Graham & Stubbs LLP, as well as Jay Coen-Gilbert, co-founder of B Lab.
For further information, contact Katie Kerr at B Lab, 610-293-0299 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Acupuncture has grown in popularity in the United States, particularly in the last two decades, and is now considered by many Western physicians to be an effective treatment for many chronic conditions, particularly women's health issues. In fact, the National Institutes of Health agrees that acupuncture is beneficial for gastrointestinal disorders, pain, headaches, insomnia, allergies, gynecological conditions, and immune and respiratory conditions.
Acupuncture is the most commonly used component of the holistic healthcare system known as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). According to the National Health Interview Survey in 2002, approximately 8.2 million American adults have used acupuncture at some point in the past, and 2.1 million had undergone acupuncture in the previous year. An estimated 5000 doctors (M.D.) and more than 7000 Oriental medicine practitioners provide acupuncture in the United States. Practitioners of TCM believe that energy known as Qi (pronounced "chee") flows through our bodies along channels called meridians. These meridians correlate to our circulatory, digestive, neuromuscular and endocrine systems. When the flow of energy is disrupted, pain or illness results; but by stimulating points along these meridians, the flow of the Qi is encouraged, thereby restoring balance and relieving pain.
The number and frequency of acupuncture treatments needed depends on the nature of the condition. An acute condition may require just two or three treatments, while a more severe, chronic condition may need five to 15 treatments or ongoing treatments over a longer period of time. At each session, the acupuncturist inserts 10 to 20 stainless steel needles ranging in length from one to three inches just under the skin for approximately 20 to 40 minutes. The acupuncturist may stimulate the needles with low-voltage electricity, focus heat lamps on the needles to increase circulation, or combine the treatment with cupping, burning of herbs, Tui na massage and acupressure.
According to Bruce Pomeranz, M.D., Ph.D., neurophysiologist and professor at the University of Toronto School of Medicine, acupuncture affects the nervous system, causing our brains to release endorphins, our bodies' natural painkillers. Additionally, it appears that when the acupuncture needles are connected to low-voltage electrical currents our bodies release serotonin, a calming and feel-good neurochemical, and cortisol, which reduces inflammation. In many cases, acupuncture is most effective when paired with Western treatments and may reduce the amount of medication patients must take.
Results from scientific studies undertaken to test the effectiveness of acupuncture have been mixed and the American Medical Association still considers acupuncture an unproven method of treatment; however, promising results have emerged. For instance, An NCCAM (National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine)-funded study recently showed that acupuncture provides pain relief, improves function for people with osteoarthritis of the knee, and is an effective complement to standard care.
Acupuncture may be useful in treating:
Most people experience minimal - or no - pain during acupuncture. In fact, many feel energized while others feel relaxed during treatment. Slight pain may be felt as the needles are inserted, and improper needle placement, moving during treatment, or a defective needle can cause pain during treatment and soreness afterward. For these reasons, it is important to find an experienced, reputable practitioner.
To find a trusted acupuncturist, ask your health care professional for a referral or find one through the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine Website.
Always check a prospective acupuncturist's credentials. Approximately 40 states have training standards for acupuncture certification, but their requirements to become licensed vary. Although a license or credentials may not guarantee you the best treatment, they do ensure the acupuncturist has met certain educational and professional standards. However, do not rely on a diagnosis of a condition made by an acupuncturist, unless he or she has substantial medical training. It is recommended that you receive a diagnosis from your traditional health care professional and then inquire whether acupuncture may be a viable treatment option for you. Some insurance companies will cover acupuncture, so be sure to check with your insurance provider.

How the West was Won or Lost: Dodgers vs Rockies Take two!
My Friday evening started very nice with Tommy Lasorda being honored. Before I went to the field level I ran into Nancy Bea (Dodger organist) and her husband. They are so sweet. I run into them every once in a while in the club level. I have a picture with her from a while back this time I wanted a picture with both of them. \
Here is a picture of the Tommy Lasorda plaque giveaway:
Isn't this a nice plaque? this one is #5271 of 60K.
The Tommy celebration was wonderful. Lots of filmage of his manager years. There was this film of the Phillie Phanatic making fun of Tommy with a look-like Tommy inflatable doll where the Phllie Phanatic starts beating it up
Lots of players that played for Tommy in attendance like Steve Sax, Leary, Karros, Monday, Landreaux, Charlie Hugh, etc. All were wearing their jerseys.
As everyone knows, Dodgers are still looking for that illusive win. They have lost five in a row for the first time. Manny struck out FOUR TIMES, all with runners in scoring position. Casey Blake, who returned to the lineup also struck out FOUR TIMES.
The Dodgers 3-6 hitters were 0-14 with 9 strickouts. Ouch!
Here is hoping and praying that the Dodger bats wake up from their long long slumber zzz.
Can they do it? Tomorrow will be the best chance with Clayton Kershaw going for the Dodgers. Can Manny bounce back after a miserable week which has seen him go 0/10 with 8 strikeouts including his last six time at bat.
C'mon Keshaw! I want to see that public enemy number pitch working!
Go Dodgers!!!
They may be bums, but they are my bums!! Go Dodgers!!
13 Comments
Emma: That is a nice plaque! I like how all those players came back. That's cute. Come on, Dodgers! You can do it!
I didn't get my grade from that history test yet, but when I do, I'll be sure to let you know, even if it isn't too pretty🙂
Emma great post as always!! The Dodgers are your bums and that's all that matters (hmm.. i made need to steal that line. Hopefully she doesn't notice.) I love this blog, and this post is why you are atop the leader boards on mlblogs. BTW when is the mlblogs latest leaders coming out for September? huh…. New post up.😉
I know you're at the game right now, Emma, but I'm here to say good luck for tonight and here's to popping the champagne – finally! GO DODGERS!
Finally!! Oh I got a little choked up watching them clinch! It was so beatiful! Yeah I want to know the score. I love history right after math.
Not sure when the latest list comes out but it should Monday maybe? And yeah, you can use the line🙂 You should check out the whole Dodger song. I'll put a link in your blog.
Thanks!! I got champagne on my face, clothes, my glasses were all fogged up but it was great!!
Hurrah, Huzzah, and Yippie Doo wah! It must have been the scathing blog post over at my page that did the trick. I just know all the Dodgers read it and were embarrassed.😡. (Kidding).
Give the Rockies credit, they deserve a playoff birth. Heck, they deserve the Crown & would've had it if not for a bad start.
Now the match that I feared the most. Dodgers & Cardinals. Wow. Pujols. Manny. Ethier, Holliday. Who will hit more HR's?
Go Blue.
The Smiler.
Well, Emma, you got it! Dodgers clinched last night–I'm sure you were ecstatic. As I was watching footage of it on Quick Pitch this morning, I was a bit saddened to see Manny call the Dodgers fans the best fans in the world. You undoubtedly have great fans, such as yourself, but I just feel like he didn't appreciate us Red Sox fans.
Dear Emma,
Congraturations, and omedetoh at last to you and Dodgers!
Now you go into Post-Season games. Enjoy!
It must have been your post. You came back at the right time! Yes, I give those Rockies and Jim Tracy alot of credit. I hope they continue playing well against the Phillies! Pujols!? Oh my!!
You got that right! I was ecstatic! It was so wonderful being there and hugging all my friends at the stadium saying "WE DID IT!!" Thanks Elizabeth! I think we all claim to be the best fans because WE (all baseball fans) are! Don't take what Manny said literary. I think he meant at the moment.
So happy to see you posting here! Oh My God! Thank you!!
Dem Bums Done it!!! is right!!! And you are the second person that said Kershaw was Koufaxish. He sure was! He had us so excited at the stadium, we were aplauding every strike!
I had to relive all the celebration and the highlights of the game when I got home so I have no time for a new post. I do started it though. I am going out to breakfast to celebrate and then head to the stadium for fan appreciation!
I love you all!!
I love the world and the world loves me back!
Emma – they finally did it, congrats to the Dodgers on winning the west, so now you can relax till the post season starts, home field advantage too… I can't believe the Phanatic got a spot in the Lasorda celebration, he gets in everything..LOL
Outside the Phillies Looking In
How time flies! Seems like just yesterday that we packed up our bags and headed for Spring Training in Arizona. Last week was especially hard as it took five games to clinch the division. I just want to say that I am glad that we've shared so many wonderful times during this season. Peaks and valleys my friend but we are still here. I am looking forward to Wednesday. We will make it to November my friend!
Thank you! Them Bums finally got the win!!
thanks!! You should have seen the highlights with the Phanatic. After the Phanatic starts beating the dummy with the Lasorda jersey, Tommy gets up and start walking to the phanatic and they have a confrontation ala shoot out they both start walking toward each other and then BANG! they start wrestling each other. It was funny!
It sure seems like it was yesterday when we started making our plans to go to Spring Training and us driving happily there and seeing the new stadium there for the first time! We sure shared alot of memories from Spring Training to yesterday
Thank you LTD23 for being part of those wonderful memories! With help from the big Dodger in the Sky, we will continue making wonderful memories in October/November!

The transport sector is a major and rapidly growing source of greenhouse gas
emissions. Carbon dioxide emissions from vehicles and transport equipment are rising by a
significant 2.5% per year. Transportation also contributes to local and regional pollution problems
through its emissions of carbon monoxide, lead, sulfur oxides (SOx) and nitrogen oxides
(NOx). This sector's heavy reliance on liquid fossil fuels makes controlling
greenhouse gas emissions particularly difficult.
Automobiles are the transport sector's largest consumer of petroleum and its largest
source of carbon dioxide emissions. The developed world has the highest per-capita ownership
of private cars today (484 cars per 1,000 people in North America in 1996, compared to 32 in South
America), although developing countries are expected to account for most of the future growth in
automobile use.
New technologies can increase the efficiency of automobiles and reduce emissions per
kilometer traveled. New materials and designs can reduce a vehicle's mass and increase
the efficiency at which it converts energy, thus lowering the amount of energy required to move it.
With improved transmission designs, engines can operate closer to their optimal speed and load
conditions. Technological improvements in combustion-engine technology and in petroleum formulations
have already started to reduce per-vehicle emissions of both greenhouse gases and conventional
pollutants. Hybrid gasoline-electric vehicles now available on the market are twice as energy
efficient as regular vehicles of comparable size.
Switching to less carbon-intensive fuels can also reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
The feasibility of operating vehicles on fuels other than gasoline has been demonstrated in many
countries. Biodiesel, supported by tax exemptions, is gaining market share in Europe. Fuel
cell-powered vehicles are developing rapidly and are to enter the market in 2003. Biofuels produced
from wood, energy crops, and waste also promise to play any increasingly important role in the
transport sector. These fuels and technologies can offer long-term global climate benefits in tandem
with immediate improvements in local air quality.
Renewable energy technologies are becoming more and more competitive. Renewable
energy could one day offer cost-effective alternatives to petroleum-based fuels. Electricity derived
from hydroelectric, solar photovoltaics, wind systems, and hydrogen fuel cells can power the movement
of people and goods with almost zero greenhouse gas emissions. The combustion of liquid fuels derived
from sustainably grown biomass does emit carbon, but an equal amount of carbon is recaptured by the
vegetation grown to make new biomass. The use of renewable fuels in the transport sector can help to
reduce new CO2 emissions while delivering the degree of personal mobility that people
Emissions can be further cut through changes in maintenance and operating practices.
Many vehicles are not adequately maintained due to high costs or to the limited local availability of
spare parts. In some areas, maintenance may simply be a low priority for drivers and vehicle owners.
Studies have suggested that an average vehicle's fuel consumption can be reduced by as much as
210% just through regular engine tune-ups.
Policies to reduce road traffic congestion can save both emissions and costs. The
energy intensity of transport and the amount of congestion on the roads are strongly influenced by
the average occupancy rate for passenger vehicles. Computerized routing systems for trucks can save
money and fuel by optimizing payloads and minimizing time spent in traffic. Similarly, measures to
improve general traffic control and restrict the use of motor vehicles can reduce energy use
Urban planners can encourage low-emissions transport. Convincing people to switch
from automobiles to buses or trains can dramatically reduce primary energy use per
passenger-seat-kilometer. A vital part of encouraging this transition is providing safe and efficient
public transport systems. Cities can also promote walking, bicycling, and car pooling by limiting
automobile access to certain roads, increasing the fees for public parking, and converting existing
roads into bicycle lanes, bus-access roads, or "High Occupancy Vehicle" (HOV) lanes during
peak hours. The introduction of computerized traffic-light control systems, more informative signs,
and improved network designs, especially in urban areas with a high density of vehicles during peak
travel hours, can also boost efficiency. In the short term, the greatest potential that urban
planning has for affecting transport is in rapidly developing cities where cars are still in limited
Policies to reduce air traffic congestion can cut emissions while improving safety.
Present flight patterns seek to reduce fuel consumption and other in-flight costs. Nevertheless,
crowding at airports leads to long holding times at many destinations and contributes to
higher-than-necessary fuel emissions. Advances in booking systems, policies to increase seat
occupancy rates, and efforts to discourage simultaneous, partly-filled flights on the same route
could further reduce congestion, minimize landing delays, and decrease emissions. Additional aviation
fuel taxes could also play a role in promoting energy efficiency.
Policies to accelerate the rate of capital stock turnover in automobile and aircraft fleets
may be the quickest way to reduce the short-term rate of emissions growth. This is
especially true for developed countries, where large fleets with many older vehicles are already in
place. Rewards can be offered for retiring older vehicles and airplanes that do not meet current
national emissions standards, or small environmental "user fees" can be imposed, with the
fees proportional to the vehicle's energy consumption. Fuel-efficiency standards for autos and
aircraft are vital to reducing the energy intensity of transport over the longer term, but they
affect only the newest vehicles.
The appropriate mix of policies will vary from city to city and country to country.
In addition, measures to reduce emissions in the transport sector can take years or even decades to
show their full results. But if carried out with care, climate-friendly transport policies can play a
major role in promoting economic development while minimizing the local costs of traffic congestion,
road accidents, and air pollution.
