About the Author: Ruth Bennett serves as an Editor and Community Manager at DipNote.
This past week, we continued our coverage of the UN General Assembly in New York. The United States applauded the UN Human Rights Council's creation of the first-ever Special Rapporteur on freedom of assembly and association; Secretary Clinton spoke about ways to counter threats to international peace and security; and Assistant Secretary Brimmer reflected on the importance of multilateral engagement more generally. Several people provided us with helpful summaries of the spectacularly busy schedule of UN meetings and discussions: Major General (Ret) Scott Gration wrapped up coverage of Sudan for us; the CEO of the Millennium Challenge Corporation discussed development policy; and several Assistant Secretaries provided press readouts summarizing developments in specific areas of the world and offering their thoughts.
Although -- as you can see -- UNGA's scope is truly global, there was a special emphasis on global development this year, and on the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in particular. On September 28, we watched a discussion of the first-ever Presidential Policy Directive on Global Development, and we followed up with an in-depth look at one important aspect of development: food security. Ambassador Cousin, from the United Nations Agencies in Rome, explored food security in Bangladesh and wrote about the programs that are succeeding there. Our Photo of the Week came from her trip, and gave us a literal boatload of reasons to care about ensuring the world's food supply.
Our initial coverage of UNGA and the MDGs last month included this argument from Ambassador Verveer that women's equality (MDG #3) is key to meeting the other Millennium goals. The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation meeting this week took up a similar theme, focusing on the regional and global economic progress that could come from women's increased economic empowerment. The reasons for women's economic under-participation are complex, and solving the problem isn't straightforward. Ambassador Verveer addressed one aspect of the problem -- with an emphasis on a solution that's working well in India -- in her entry "Mobilizing Communities to Address Gender-Based Violence." We asked for your input on the topic in our Question of the Week.
In Pakistan, 1,900 students graduated from U.S.-funded "employability" training, and, in The Bahamas, "Eunice Kennedy Shriver" Day reminded us that we can all make a difference in our communities. Our colleagues at Africom sought to do just that by providing 10,000 Ugandan students backpacks, helping to make homework -- or, at least, carrying it -- a little easier.
Back in Washington after the end of high-level UNGA sessions, Secretary Clinton spoke at a historical conference on Southeast Asia (additional reflections on the conference are here). She met with EU High Representative Lady Ashton and -- on the eve of the 20th anniversary of German Unification -- with German Vice Chancellor and Foreign Minister Westerwelle. In a blog entry DipNote readers told us they particularly welcomed, Secretary Clinton also spoke about President Obama's Executive Order imposing sanctions on Iranian officials who are responsible for, or complicit in, serious human rights abuses. Assistant Secretary Yun testified on the Hill about Cambodia's debt; the U.S. Embassy in Quito provided an update on the situation in Ecuador. We noted the 18th anniversary of the Senate's approval of the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, and the 300 days since its expiration. Far from past tensions over arms control, the paintings of William James Glackens -- our current ART in EMBASSIES offering -- brought the week to a close with a soothing vision of tranquility.

Platinum Short Pixie
Amazing how edgy this pixie looks with it's various lenghts starting from short almost shaved towards the back keeping a little more length on the sides and giving it some really cool layered long strands towards the bangs. When it comes to avant-garde haircuts there is no wrong way to express ones creativity and this stylist really went all out and is showcasing so much creativity with so little hair! We absolutely love this style of pixie, we hope to see a lot more short trendy ones like this.

Following the enormous success of the Beethoven Network classical music format service and in response to radio station requests for low-cost, highly-quality hosted Jazz hours, WFMT created the Jazz Network….now 12 hours nightly of mainstream Jazz programming, selected and hosted by the legendary Jazz expert Bob Parlocha.
Modeled after the BN service, the Jazz Network debuted in April 1997 with a strong and rapidly-growing base of affiliates. The qualities and features that have worked so well with Bach, Mozart and Beethoven now apply to Evans, Coltrane and Parker through the Jazz Network.
Designed for you and your listeners, all Jazz Network hours can be fully customized as your local program product. The service includes flexible hourly modules, with optional internal covered breaks which allow for news, ID's, local promotion, funding credits or commercials, and customized continuity with a local sound which will have your listeners convinced that Bob is sitting in your studio.
JazzTimes magazine listeners voted and Jazz Network with Bob Parlocha was declared the No. 1 best syndicated Jazz Network (Jan-Feb 2003 issue).
Here are some comments about the Jazz Network:
"…Parlocha is a pro and to pay attention to him and the music he selects is to be a part of a first rate jazz educational experience…"
"The WFMT Jazz network is the perfect cultural programming service for public radio. It's both listener-friendly and station-friendly, qualities which make it ideal for these lean and mean times."
For more information on the Jazz Network, please contact Tony Macaluso at (773) 279-2114, email: email@example.com or Estlin Usher at (773) 279-2112, email: firstname.lastname@example.com. Remember, you only pay for the hours you use! A photograph of Bob Parlocha is available upon request.
Please note that the times marked below are in Eastern Time. These hours represented are the 9 hours that the WFMT Radio Network distributes to stations around the country, and local times and schedules may vary. Please contact your local station to determine which hours they are airing.

Spending levels still too high
Taxes have gone up, not just for "the wealthy" but for every American who works. The national debt is approaching $17 trillion. Deficit spending still is reported in hundreds of billions of dollars a year.
But some liberals are saying that federal spending cuts can be put on the back burner now, because government revenue has been increasing.
What kind of insanity is that?
Liberals' new confidence was bolstered by a report that federal government revenue through June was up 14 percent in comparison to the same period last year. The trend is expected to continue.
It has prompted some liberals to suggest the "sequester" spending cuts be rescinded and that talk of other reductions in the size of government be dropped.
But some of the revenue increase is because the payroll tax break, benefitting all Americans who work, was allowed to expire in January. And, again, Washington continues to spend far more than it receives.
The problem still is that our government spends too much. That cannot be allowed to continue.

I'll preface this by saying I've never used FanDuel as my Fantasy Football interest has waned over the years to the point I don't play it at all.
But how is immediate cash paid back on winnings for Fantasy Football in any way different than gambling on Party Poker or Pokerstars or any other site now illegal in the US?
Is it the skill vs. luck designation or something else?
It's gambling in any way you look at if you're risking real money.
I'll argue all day that poker is more skill than luck although both those elements exist on the fantasy side of things as well.
Just wondering if anyone knows the reason or has heard a reason given.
Guess I just miss the Friday and Saturday nights of 3am low limit card playing...

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (18 votes).
In short: One of the best races I've ever done. I hadn't planned to finish as I hadn't done adequate training but it was a glorious day and a gorgeous course so I couldn't give it up! Fantastic, please do it again in 2013.In full: Only downside : as one of the last finishers there wasn't much left by the time I'd showered and changed and I only found out about the free bar from the reviews on here! I shall know for next time! Please run another one Red Bull. Date of review: January 14, 2013
In short: Incredible race in an incredible locationIn full: Wow! Red Bull did a great job of creating a great new event and I love the way that they did it with a nod to the heritage of steeplechase and fell running!Things to keep:- the entrants (invite this year's finishers back!)... it seemed like they picked people who'd entered challenging events before and it really paid off. There was comradery and sportsmanship all the way round, good laughs and great competition.- the added extras, such as the wonderful top and medal, the lunch afterwards, and sending us a box of Red Bull before the race!- the course - stunning scenery, varied terrain, perfect location, amazing!Things to improve (these are minor quibbles in an almost perfect race!):- double-check the signage (we went the wrong way on a couple of occasions where there was no marshal/sign!) and course measurement- extra drinks stations mid-way through the longer (1st and 3rd) stages would be great (also some carbs (even a banana!) in the goodie bag)- most marshals did a great job (thank you!!) but some seemed disengagedAll-in-all, a tremendous run and let's hope we get to see it again!! Thank you so much Red Bull!Date of review: October 9, 2012
In short: The best In full: Stunning organisation from Red Bull; the only thing they didnt give you was wings (which could have been useful when up to my ankles in Peaks mud). Toughesr run i've done in 30 years of running, but with stunning scenery thrown in.My advice: dont enter if you weigh more than 9 stone, think the Chilterns are steep, will be upset if your legs scream at you for 3 days afterwards.Date of review: October 9, 2012
In short: WOW!!!!In full: The hardest yet most enjoyable race I have attempted! Stunning & Epic in all aspects! Can not pick a bad point of the whole event from the early morning start the Red Bull crew were brilliant, the race was something I remember for ever. Please bring it back next year Red Bull!!! Date of review: October 9, 2012
In short: Absolutely stunning event! Toughest and most painful race I've ever done combined with impeccable organisation and hospitality.In full: Very brave and novel concept of racing steeple to steeple with devil take the hindmost at each checkpoint. Thrilling course facing the best and hardest the peak district has to offer. Being lucky enough to have run in rift valley in Kenya, rainforests in Oz, Himilayas in Nepal and snow mountains Canada have to say rising through the low cloud and breaking in to glorious sunshine on ridge on Mam tor was as good as it gets, sent shivers down the spine. Still pulling thorns out of my hands, gashes on my bum trying to slide down steep banks, cuts on elbows crashing into stiles, aching in every muscle in my body...I wonder how this event is getting a PB potential as high as 20%!?Organisation first class, no stone unturned to make this very complex format run smoothly, unparalleled reception in beautiful square. Bean bags, great free food and bar, excellent goody bag quality hoody and towel and medal. Rumour that they will roll this format out to 1000 runners next year, sign up as quick as you can! Date of review: October 9, 2012
In short: Hard as the hills it is made from and equally as beautifulIn full: After finishing, I stopped and looked realising I had run those hills, a feeling that will last for a long time.I enjoyed all of this experience, the chill out tent at the start, the mind blowing scenery, the leg blowing climbs, the hair raising decents, the sheer scale of the organisation, to mark 22miles (by my garmin anyway) over this terrain is incredible.£25 is enough for a race but this is the most value from any race, goody bag, red bull, band, the chip timing (although I think this will be an area they seek to improve), hog roast, free bar but most of all the organisationThank you all involvedDate of review: October 8, 2012
In short: Brilliant, Brutal, ouchIn full: A gerat race, the course was brutal which pobably explained the number of people who didn't start which was a great shame. (i would have liked to haev made it to the 3rd cut off, and might have if the numbers were greater)It is by far the toughest running event i have ever done, but i can't wait for the next one.Date of review: October 8, 2012
In short: Most beautiful and rewarding race I've done - but tough course and not for first timersIn full: Wonderful atmosphere, fantastic trails and a really unique competitive aspect that got the blood pounding! I utterly loved it. The race itself was truly stunning with incredible scenery. The after party was awesome (best brownies ever) and I shall be proudly wearing my hoody everywhere! Please please do this again, Red Bull!PS whilst amazing, this was a tough course. Some people really seemed to struggle through a lack of preparation - eg not wearing trail shoes. I wouldn't recommend it of you haven't done a trail race or two before, simply because you probably won't enjoy it quite as much! Date of review: October 8, 2012
In short: Brutal race but supremely organised with a great atmosphereDate of review: October 8, 2012
In short: Incredible race, scenery and atmosphere. Plus suffering and mud!In full: Wonderful race. I think I ran the whole way on adrenaline. Tough course with mud and steep hills the whole way. But atmosphere was fantastic and very well organised with lots of support. The knockout aspect made it exciting and made me suffer, but all worth it. Finish excellent- great beer garden, brass band and friendly people. Real feel good factor to it.Date of review: October 7, 2012

A Five-Step Guide to Contagion
Why European debt matters to the United States.
Editor's Note: This is an updated reprint of an article Todd penned on February 10, 2010.
Times are tough and those struggling to make ends meet have focused their efforts close to home.
That's a natural instinct but it doesn't change the fact that problems on the other side of the world affect us all. To fully understand the depth and complexity of our current conundrum, we must appreciate how we got here.
It is widely accepted that grieving arrives in five stages: denial, anger, bargaining, sadness, and acceptance. If we apply that psychological continuum to the financial market construct, it offers a valuable lens with which to view this evolving crisis.
In April 2007, policymakers assured an unsuspecting public that housing and sub-prime mortgage concerns were "well contained." Minyanville took the other side of that trade and argued that the nascent contagion extended all the way around the world. (Read more in Well Contained?)
In August 2007, as the Dow Jones Industrial Average traded near an all-time high, Canadian officials told investors it would "provide liquidity to support the stability of the Canadian financial system and the continued functioning of the financial markets" before systemic contagion ensued. (See also The Credit Card.)
In March 2008 Alan Schwartz, CEO of Bear Stearns, appeared on CNBC to assuage concerns that his firm was facing a liquidity crisis. "Some people could speculate that Bear Stearns might have some problems since we're a significant player in the mortgage business," he said, "None of those speculations are true."
On January 28 of this year, Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou offered that Greece was being victimized by rumors in the financial markets and denied seeking aid from European partners to finance the country's budget deficit, according to Bloomberg. As we know, European issues are now staking claim as the sovereign sequel of the financial crisis.
Two of my Ten Themes for 2010 are relevant to this discussion. The first is the "tricky trifecta," or the migration from societal acrimony to social unrest to geopolitical conflict. Populist uprising, the rejection of wealth, and an emerging class war are symptomatic of this dynamic, as is the unfortunate fact economic hardship traditionally serves as a precursor to war.
The other theme is the notion of "European Disunion," as I wrote in early January:
The European Union is committed to the regional and economic integration of 27 member states, with sixteen countries sharing a common currency. That was a fine idea when it was first founded but the economic fallout of the financial crisis will put loyalties to the test.
Look for the Union to adopt more stringent guidelines in the coming year, including but not limited to distancing itself from the weaker links such as Greece and Ireland. Sovereign defaults, as a whole, should jockey for mind-share. This could conceivably spark a rally in the US Dollar, which could have ominous implications for the crowded carry trade.
European discontent continues to simmer with labor strikes and social strife as efforts are made to implement an amenable cross-border plan. While that amount is far smaller than what financial firms faced in September 2008, the dynamic is eerily reminiscent. (Read also Pirate's Booty.)
By the time it was evident sub-prime mortgage woes weren't contained, the damage already occurred. Our government reactively responded to the crisis by consuming the cancer in an attempt to stave off a car crash. (See also Shock & Awe.)
As the European Union and International Monetary Fund wrestle with how to address the sovereign mess in Greece and beyond, our financial fate can be drilled down to one very simple question: Will we see contagion, as we did with Fannie Mae (FNM), Freddie Mac (FRE), AIG (AIG), Bear Stearns, and Lehman Brothers, or will the current congestion be contained in the context of an evolving globalization?
The bulls will offer that corrections must feel sinister if they're to be truly effective. They're right, of course, but I will remind you of a salient point made by Professor Peter Atwater on Minyanville. If sovereign lifeguards saved corporations when the financial crisis first hit, who is left to save the lifeguards?
Over the last few weeks, we've seen significant widening in overseas credit spreads, including Hong Kong, Switzerland, Indonesia, Malaysia, Portugal, and New Zealand. As markets are fluid and policy takes time, the lag must be factored into the fragile equation, particularly as the European Union is structurally interlinked.
We can talk about how the capital market construct forever changed, how our constitutional rights have been challenged or how the lifestyles of the rich conflict with the struggle to exist. While those dynamics remain in play, they miss an entirely more relevant point for purposes of this discussion. (See The Declaration of Interdependence.)
Social mood and risk appetites shape financial markets. One of the greatest misperceptions of all time was that The Crash caused The Great Depression when The Great Depression actually caused The Crash.
It's been over a year since Minyanville fingered Eastern Europe as a modern day incarnation of a sub-prime borrower. The question is therefore begged, what if Greece is Fannie Mae, Portugal is Freddie Mac, Spain is AIG, Argentina is Wachovia Bank, and Ireland is Lehman Brothers? (Also read Eastern Europe, Subprime Borrower.)
Contagion, by definition, arrives in phases and we must remember that Greece is a symptom of the problem, not the problem itself. Regardless of what IMF or Euro Zone "cross border solution" we see, it'll simply buy time, much like the bearded nationalization of Fannie and Freddie pushed risk out on the time continuum.
Given the trending direction of social mood and the discounting mechanism that is the market, the perception that defines our financial reality must remain front and center in the mainstream mindset.
In September 2008, we offered that the government invented fingers to plug the multitude of holes that sprang open in the financial dike. That imagery would again apply if there were viable fingers attached to a healthy and able arm.
While many dismiss the notion that Greece or Portugal "matter" in the global financial construct, I'll explain why they might. Concerns in the Euro Zone could manifest through a "flight to quality" in the US Dollar, as it has to the tune of more than 10% in the dollar index (DXY) since the December low.
Those hoping for a stronger greenback should be careful for what they wish, much like the "lower crude will be equity positive" crowd learned in 2008. In an "asset class deflation vs. dollar devaluation" environment, a weak currency is a necessary precursor to -- but no guarantor of -- higher asset class prices. (See Hyperinflation vs. Deflation.)
The hedge fund community currently has the carry trade on in size. If the greenback continues to strengthen, the specter of an unwind increases in kind. Should that occur, asset class positions financed with borrowed dollars would come for sale across the board.
The point of recognition will eventually arrive that our debt issues are cumulative; when that happens, the contagion will no longer be contained. In the meantime, as we edge from here to there, be on the lookout for the unintended consequences of European austerity initiatives, including but not limited to social unrest and the abatement of risk appetites.
Risk management over reward chasing as we together find our way.

I'm working on a new project with refinerycms and I've just built an 'events' section. A site visitor can enter in some information and they get registered for an event. Only addition I need is the ability to accept a one time payment.
I'm fairly new to rails and have never built any kind of e-commerce solution. Just wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of something that might fit my needs. This is a pro bono project so there's no budget and free solutions are better if possible.
Does paypal have an api or something I can use? Where would I find information like that.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Compared to his best season, in 2013 Jimenez has generated as many strikeouts. He's thrown as many strikes, he's generated as many grounders, and he's actually worked ahead in the count a little more often. He hasn't worked as deeply in games, and he hasn't thrown his pitches at the same velocity, but if you want to be encouraged by 2013 Ubaldo Jimenez, doing so isn't a stretch. There's a lot of beauty beneath the less beautiful.

You can tell with the tone of the article that Sullivan still isn't convinced like the rest of us, but the deeper numbers are as encouraging as the direct results in his last few starts it would seem.

The Dazzling Dozen
Twelve reasons why you and any money smart person should choose to build a Money for Life personal economy that lets YouBeTheBank and that works in good times and bad:
- You can get cash loans for bad credit whenever you want it or need it…no penalties, no waiting, no taxes.
- The government, your employer, or any other outsiders have nothing to say about how you operate your "bank."
- Your "bank" is protected from creditors and lawsuits
- You can borrow against your "bank" for any reason and you don't have to qualify in any way
- When you do borrow from your "bank," the money in your "bank" keeps growing as if you hadn't borrowed a cent…your money does double duty.
- Your "bank" allows you to recover the money you pay to purchase cars, household furnishings, vacations and other big ticket items or to fund education, business start-ups or any other costly expense, and deposit both principal and interest you recover right back into your "bank."
- Your "bank" allows you to put all of the interest you would normally pay to credit card companies, banks and other credit grantors into your "bank" where it compounds for your benefit.
- Your "bank" allows you to pre-pay the cost of future health and long-term care so the money you need as you age is in your "bank" when you need it most.
- Your "bank" can fund an inflation-protected income that you do not have to work for and you can't outlive
- You can use the money in your "bank" when an unforeseen life event throws you off track. (and that happens to everyone at some time or another).
- Your "bank" lets you grow your wealth tax free every year…no sliding backward…no worries about stock market crashes or real estate market bubbles... just peace of mind about your money.
- Your "bank" serves you without compromise while you are alive and allows you to pay forward - tax free and to anyone you choose - your legacy of wealth and wisdom.

NMU's Colla, Gruber earn GLIAC honors
MARQUETTE – Two Northern Michigan University women's basketball sophomores guards earned GLIAC honors, the league announced on Friday.
Alyssa Colla was named to the Second Team while Lauren Gruber made it onto the league's All-Defensive Team.
Colla, a native of Muskego, Wis., led the team in points and minutes played, averaging 12.9 points and 36.4 minutes per game. She started all 27 of the Wildcats games, scoring in double figures 20 times and making it to the 20-point threshold in five games. She scored a season-high 22 points in back-to-back games vs. Michigan Tech on Feb. 2 and Grand Valley State on Feb. 7.
Gruber, a native of West Bend, Wis., also averaged in double figures for NMU with 11.6 ppg and played an average 36.1 minutes per game. Like Colla, she started all 27 games and reached double figures in scoring 20 times, including a career-high 26 points vs. Davenport on Nov. 10. For the season, she shot 46.5 percent from the floor, 40.4 from the 3-point line and 85.7 percent on free throws.
NMU finished 13-14 overall and 10-12 in the GLIAC and qualified for the GLIAC Tournament for the fourth time in five years, bowing out in the first round to No. 1-seeded Ashland earlier this week.

These are images from my 2010 project, Consumed, where I took a photo of every thing I ate that year. Every. Single. Thing.
It wasn't really a photo project as much as a project that used photography, and the project had more to do with making sure I carried a camera all the time and took photos, than the actual pictures I took. At the end of the year I realized I had taken a lot of pictures that I really liked but I also realized i was happy to be done with it. In there end there were over 2100 photos for the year. On January 1st, 2011, at 12:01, am I ate some a nice piece of bread with brie and did not take a picture of it.
It was delicious.

DETROIT — They drove past the decimation of the Brightmoor neighborhood on Detroit's west side and, soon after, through the stately neighborhoods of Sherwood Forest and Palmer Woods.
They saw the devastation of blight on the northeast side and the famed Heidelberg Project art installation that grew out of frustration with urban decline. They viewed Eastern Market, the Detroit Institute of Arts and the construction site of the M-1 Rail streetcar line on Woodward Avenue downtown, a tentative first step toward modern mass transit in a city struggling to provide basic bus service.
Two weeks before a trial to determine the fate of Detroit's sweeping bankruptcy restructuring plan, the group of people on that bus — including the federal judge overseeing the case and representatives of the city's creditors — saw those sites and more as the city conducted a hearing on wheels Friday in a wide-ranging tour of neighborhoods and cultural landmarks that reveal Detroit in all its pain and promise.
The highly scripted tour, accompanied by federal marshals after weeks of secret planning, took about three hours and covered 58 miles. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes, Detroit Chief Operating Officer Gary Brown and lawyers for the city and its major creditors — about 15 people in all — rode on a shiny new Detroit Department of Transportation bus that many regular riders would envy.
Rhodes departed the bus before it arrived at a media briefing in Southfield, where participants had boarded and exited the bus. Their only excursions off the bus were at a police precinct on the northeast side and at the DIA, where lawyers said the judge and others visited the famed Rivera Court, the site of Mexican artist Diego Rivera's Detroit Industry murals, as well as a Van Gogh painting and a special photography exhibit that focuses on prominent and everyday Detroiters reflecting the city's evolution.
"It was important in our mind for the judge to get context of the evidence he was going to hear, and by going on the tour and seeing the different sites, we believe it provided the context necessary for us to present our case," said Robert Hertzberg, a lawyer for one of the city's bankruptcy law firms, Pepper Hamilton.
Hertzberg and two other lawyers for the city, Greg Shumaker and Dan Moss of the Jones Day firm, said Rhodes took no notes and did not ask questions on the trip, which they described as following a scripted narrative agreed to in advance by lawyers for the city and creditors.
Shumaker said the tour was "eye-opening," and while he said he would not call it a blight tour, the itinerary went out of the way to show how widespread neighborhood abandonment is in the city.
MORE: Detroit's financial crisis
"You could do this by pictures, but you do not get a sense of the scale of the problem unless you actually go and travel around like we did," Shumaker said after the tour. "It's one thing to look at a house decayed; it's another thing to see entire neighborhoods decimated."
Rhodes agreed to take the tour at the city's request to survey the city ahead of a massive trial starting Aug. 21 that will determine the fate of the bankruptcy restructuring plan.
Attorneys for several creditors objecting to Detroit's bankruptcy were on the bus, including representatives of bond insurers Syncora and Financial Guaranty Insurance Co., which want the city to consider selling DIA artwork to pay off their debts.
Hertzberg said he believed the tour provided the judge the necessary context for why the city must slash more than $7 billion in debt and reinvest $1.4 billion in city services over 10 years.
"It was important in our mind for the judge to have a site visit. It is extremely unusual for a judge to get out in any type of case," he said.

RGGI represents the leading edge of a new collaborative policy-making to confront global warming.reduce fossil fuel use or buy new permits to emit carbon. But because of political pressure and fears of economic impacts, the RGGI states and utilities agreed on a high cap of 188 million tons annually. Currently, in part because of the recession, the 233 RGGI-regulated power plants are emitting 150 million tons a year, meaning that, at this point, there is no economic incentive for utilities to reduce energy use and carbon emissions.
States are using the revenue from RGGI auctions for energy conservation, efficiency, and clean energy development.environmental priorities, especially in Washington, D.C. The House Energy and Commerce Committee is currently considering a bill that will likely call for reducing greenhouse gas emissions 17 percent by 2020, 45 percent below 2005 levels by 2030, and 85 percent by 2050. The major pitfall facing the so-called Waxman-Markey bill is the same one that has weakened the RGGI initiative — making so many concessions to industry that caps are set too low, or exempting too many greenhouse-gas-emitting industries.
The Obama administration includes a number of officials intimately familiar with the RGGI program.cap-and-trade regime would generate. Ian Bowles, the Massachusetts secretary of energy and environmental affairs, recently told lawmakers that RGGI is a sound model for the federal government to emulate. "If the RGGI program is folded into a federal cap-and-trade program," he said, "we believe it is important that the new federal system provide financing for state energy efficiency programs that would otherwise lose funding under this transition."

Voters in Portland, Oregon approved a $35 per adult tax to raise $12 million for arts and music education. (Those under the poverty line are exempt.)
It's not surprising Portland schools need more money. The district sent 93 teachers, principals and administrators to San Antonio for a five-day conference on "Courageous Conversations" about race, reports the Portland Tribune. More teachers were sent for five days of equity training in Oregon. All this is run by the Office of Equity, which has grown from one to seven employees in the past year.
At Harvey Scott K-8 school, 20 current and former teachers and staff members told the Tribune that Principal Verenice Gutierrez's focus on race has created a "hostile environment" for students, staff and parents. Fearing a Courageous Conversations backlash, they all asked to be anonymous.
You may remember Gutierrez, who believes using a peanut butter sandwich as an example is culturally insensitive, but it's OK to offer lunch time drumming classes only to black and Hispanic boys.
Scott's "kids of whiteness" feel excluded, one teacher said.
Adds another teacher: "Our whiteness is constantly thrown in our face. We're taught we're incapable of teaching students of color."
Teachers have filed grievances with their union — or just quit. Twenty-six teachers — about half the staff — left after Gutierrez' first year at Scott. Eight left the following year. The principal vowed to hire only bilingual teachers who are native speakers of Spanish. She wants to turn Scott into a bilingual immersion school.
Mediators have come to Scott multiple times to lead staff meetings, all paid for by the district. Among them is equity coach Kim Feicke, whose biography cites her expertise in working with "white educators to understand the impact of white culture on teaching, learning and school culture in order to effectively shift current practices."
Enrollment is dropping, which Guitierrez blames on "white flight." Scott's enrollment is 52 percent Latino, 20 percent white, 13 percent black (mostly Somali) and 8 percent Asian (mostly Vietnamese). The school scores in the bottom 15 percent statewide.
Scott needed to change, says Karl Logan, the regional administrator. "Whiteness" doesn't refer to skin color, according to Logan, who calls himself a black man with "whiteness in me." Whiteness is "about the predominant culture. If we're not aware of how much we take that for granted, we will all of us miss the opportunity to improve student learning."
In a memo to staff, Gutierrez described her shock at a student's perception that she is a principal of whiteness.
"I asked him what color his skin is and he stated, 'black.' I then went into how society typecasts people of color and how expectations of us are lower simply because of the color of our skin. As I was speaking about our skin color he said, 'But you are white.' " This statement stopped me dead and I can honestly say that it is the most devastating statement a child has ever made to me."
Matt Shelby, district spokesman, says equity spending is needed to close the racial/ethnic achievement gap: Two-thirds of Portland's white students, but only about half of blacks and Hispanics, earn a high school diploma in four years. "To just hire more teachers gets you more of the same," Shelby told the Tribune. "Obviously when you look at our data the status quo isn't working."
So far, asking kids about their skin color isn't working either, according to district data. Scott's math and reading scores seem to be declining. The school made adequate yearly progress in seven of eight years before Gutierrez took over, but has failed AYP since.

In most aspects of life, we often learn by experience, and often the best teachers are dumb decisions or dumb mistakes. You learn the hard way not to rub your eyes with soap on your hands, or not to bite into a slice of pizza straight out of the oven. In flying, you may learn the hard way to verify that you really did untie the airplane before leaving the parking spot. If not, the rest of us will enjoy laughing not with you, but most assuredly at you. Did you forget to switch tanks in your Cherokee? The silence you soon will hear will guarantee you that you will not make that mistake again.
I'd like to use this post to hear from you, the readers. I will admit that I have done a few dumb things that will remain my knowledge alone (none of the above were mine). Unfortunately, I don't what the statute of limitations is on a few of my mistakes (translated: I am a bit embarrassed by them), but I will admit to one that goes back to my student pilot days. I could make a strong argument that I had some implicit help in this one, but I will also take responsibility for it as well.
When I was ready for my long solo cross-country (the rules were different then), I was told to plan a flight from Bay Bridge Airport to Charlottesville, Virginia (CHO), to Williamsburg/Jamestown and return. The easiest leg was clearly going to be the one from Jamestown back to Bay Bridge. All I had to do was follow the Chesapeake Bay. It was so simple a blind man could have done it. It's also the only part that went according to plan.
The problem with Charlottesville is that the airport was at the very bottom corner of the sectional. The arrival from the north was supposed to be made easier by a rather unique-looking lake, whose shape (I was told by my instructor) would make it nearly impossible to miss. Key word: nearly. It never even dawned on me to take the adjacent sectional…and nobody suggested to me that I should. I mean, just because one has a road map of Ohio in the car does not mean that one needs a road map of, say, Pennsylvania. Right? Right?? Right!
So, on the (hazy, summer) day in question, I got down to the CHO area with no problem. But the lake on the ground…well, it was blue. But I could not convince myself that it was the lake I wanted. As I looked at the sectional and the ground, I began to suspect that something wasn't right. I also realized that I had to be very careful about not flying off the sectional, or I'd be an airborne Christopher Columbus, with no idea of what was out in front of me, and unlike Chris, I didn't have an extra three days with which to work. To make what could be a very long story short, I called Flight Service, and with their help (and with me being asked to squawk 7700), I came to realize that I was right where I needed to be. In retrospect, it was obvious I should have had the Cincinnati sectional in addition to the Washington chart, and in this case, I should have trusted my instincts. But I did trust in and use my training in getting resituated. Ironically enough, CHO soon became one of my favorite airports to visit, both via general aviation and with the airlines. Go figure.
So, what's your story?–Chip Wright

Tarragon Meatloaf
Recipe courtesy of Alex Guarnaschelli
- The Cooking Loft
Everyone has a different idea of how meatloaf should taste. I am always looking for ways to revise and improve my recipe. The sour cream[ imparts extra moisture, even if you overcook it a little. The herbs add a fresh taste. If you have time, grind your own beef, using brisket and chuck cuts, and your own pork, using shoulder cuts.]
- 1 pound ground beef
- 3/4 pound ground pork
- 1 teaspoon hot paprika
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 3 small yellow onions, peeled and minced (should equal roughly 1 cup)
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
- 1 cup bread crumbs
- 2/3 cup ketchup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 small bunch flat-leaf parsley, stemmed, washed, dried and chopped, 1/4 cup total
- 1 small bunch tarragon, stemmed, washed, dried and chopped, 1/4 cup total
- 3 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- Additional ketchup for brushing, if desired
DirectionsWatch how to make this recipe.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
In a large bowl, mix the beef and pork and gently knead them together with your hands. Add the paprika, salt and pepper. Add the rest of the ingredients. Mix to blend.
The taste test: Heat a small saucepan and add the vegetable oil. When the oil begins to smoke, lower the heat and add a small piece of the mixture. Cook 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the pan and taste. Check seasoning. If too moist, add more bread crumbs. If too dry, add an extra egg.
Mold the meat into a loaf and place it in the center of a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Using a pan without high edges will yield a meatloaf with a crust. Cook, undisturbed, for 15 minutes. Brush it with additional ketchup and lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
Bake until the meat is firm when touched or when it has an internal temperature of 150 degrees F, about 45 additional minutes. Remove from the oven, pour off any excess grease and allow it to "rest" for 10 to 15 minutes before serving. Brush again with ketchup, if desired.

Granola bars?
When I get up I can't eat breakfast. My stomach just isn't ready for it. My morning routine is that I wake up and spend about 15 minutes waking up before hitting the tredmill at a fast walking speed for a half hour. It wakes me up and gives me some good exercise. An hour later I'm at work but still unable to eat breakfast. An hour after that I'm finally hungry.
Long story short, I'm looking to buy some granola bars to keep at work as a quick easy breakfast.
What are peoples recommendations for healthy granola bars. Is Koshi (spelling?) stuff just a big name and actually not a good healthy source?
275 views and nobody eats granola bars? lol
i think you are thinking about kashi bars ... never heard if they are good or not ... i have heard larabars are good too
man i totally understand your dilema. My day starts around 4:30am and it's 8:30 before i'm, "ready" to eat. Loading down your desk with snacks is a great idea and granola bars could be fine. Just read the labels and find the best ratio of carbs to fat / sugar. most granola bars have the nutritional value of a snickers bar so keep that in mind. I use that as a justification for eating a snickers bar every once in a while .
However a while back my trainer took over my diet and has me carb loading first thing in the morning with oatmeal, or whole wheat bagels etc. taking vitamins and then eating every couple hour straight thru to my evening workouts. Then for dinner we hit the protein hard. The first few weeks were very hard and the breakfast would even make me throw up butttt. now i cant imagine missing breakfast and my performance and weight loss have increased a ton!
some snacks i keep on hand - fruit, veggies, bagels, ginger snaps, low fat whole wheat crackers, oatmeal, nuts, dried fruit, cottage cheese and of course a snickers bar. Only buy one snickers bar at a time or they will get eaten to fast.
have fun and keep up that morning walk!
I haven't read a Kashi bar, but a couple of their cereals are ok while the others are average. (Thanks for the word suntereo.)
I hunted down bars a while ago. One guideline cited an ideal intake for fats/oils is 10% by calories for cardiovascular health--seemingly an extreme. I wonder, at that level, if that's enough lipid intake to help properly process various vitamins/minerals. I'm sorry; I forget where I saw it. I find that 20-25% of calories from lipids is do-able, per day. Many bars are lipid-heavy, proportionally (e.g. 170cals, 120 from lipids), or sugar heavy.
If you're looking for bars and reading labels, check what the protein & fiber look like. If you're looking for a meal replacement or a snack (5 eats per day type thing), I've carved my meal/snacks down to being a rough 250-400 calories each. I didn't actually count each calorie. Don't over-think it; just glance at portion size. With a bar, are you getting enough food for the session until the next time you'll eat? Good protein is harder to come by; sugar is not.
Regarding fiber, when "whole grain" became the rage, one realist cautioned people to read labels. Unlike lucky charms, a food was only potentially whole grain if there were 100 carb-cals per 2 gram fiber. (Why they didn't say 50cal/g, I don't know.) So, when you check sugar content, look at it in the context of sugar vs total carb & relative to fiber. Then, after all that, is there other nutrition in it? Are there enough various vitamins/minerals.
The first thing I read on a label for anything supplementary is for artificial sweeteners. They're a primary eliminator.
So, in short:
- No artificial sweeteners (sucralose, aspartame, asulfa-something K)
- no sugar alcohols
- no weird other chemistry (short list, msg, others)
- Lower proportion of calories from fats (by calories)
- sufficient protein (by mass, grams)
- Carb cals relative to fiber
- lower proportion of carb cals from sugar, by mass
- Sodium? vs potassium?
- Vitamins & Minerals, esp if meal replacement
I did a small spreadsheet comparing bars within the Odwalla brand. (Stop laughing; I was curious.) Their basic protein bar was the best within the brand. It actually has more potassium than sodium. Some other bars are either too sugary or too fatty. You will always be heavy in either of those, sugar or fat. However, that bar gets most of the protein from soy, which is not necessarily a good human food (especially if you're a B blood).
I'm a big fan of the FiberPlus bars by Kellogg's. One bar has 9g of fiber and they taste awesome: http://www2.kelloggs.com/ProductDetail.aspx?id=16011
Also, the FiberOne bars are pretty good, but they are a little more dry and bland compared to the FiberPlus bars.
I just buy what's on sale at CostCo. and go with them. Out of those two brands, I haven't found a bad flavor.
Just make sure you're having a protein shake with them!
Suntereo's diet is pretty close to how I eat as well. I don't usually eat the cereal or protein bars so I'm afraid I don't have any preference on those. I do keep cereal and peanut butter in my desk at work. I usually eat a banana or something first thing in the morning. I don't have a big appetite when I wake up either, but eating something is important to get your metabolism working right away.
(Banana-as-snack rocks! Just had one.)

Hilario Durán - piano, Roberto Occhipinti - double bass, Mark Kelso - drums
One of the world's most innovative creators of Afro-Cuban music & Latin Jazz.
"Hilario Durán is an unparalleled pianist, as well as being a composer and arranger of the first order…one of the greatest Cuban pianists of the 20th century". —Chucho Valdés
Hilario Durán is a mature piano virtuoso, who chooses the adventurous and orchestral approach to his instrument, influenced by his rich experience as composer and arranger. His trio with double bassist Roberto Occhipinti, the anchor of many classical, latin and jazz ensembles, and Mark Kelso, one of the world's best Latin drummers, fuses jazz with essential Cuban rhythms.
In the seventies Durán was Chucho Valdés' chosen successor in Cuba's most modern big band, Orquesta Cubana de Música Moderna. In the eighties he worked with Arturo Sandoval and Dizzy Gillespie, and since then he has toured the world with his own bands, and also performed with musicians as varied as Michel Legrand, Paquito D'Rivera, Jane Bunnett, Horacio 'El Negro' Hernandez and Michael Brecker.
Hilario won the Canadian Juno and National Jazz Awards several times, is a
Grammy Award nominee and was recipient of the 2007 Chico O'Farrill Lifetime
Achievement Award. In 2009 he was named one of the 10 most influential Hispanic Canadians.
Duran's formal music training, combined with a deep understanding of traditional Cuban music, as well as a love for jazz, allowed him to play a key role in the integration of Afro-Cuban music and jazz. Aside from the trio, he leads his own 20-piece Latin Jazz Big Band and was featured recently as a guest soloist and arranger by the WDR Big Band Cologne in a program of his own compositions.
The Hilario Durán Trio's seasoned musicians bring both spirit and soul to musical expression and while playing together their talents are released with explosive force. A true working trio, they have toured extensively in the US with notable performances in Rochester, Cleveland, New Orleans and New York and also played at all Canadian jazz festivals as well as festivals in Japan, Mexico, Iceland, Italy, Cuba, the Netherlands and the UK.
"Coming very close to sounding like a Latin jazz big band. This is quite a feat for a trio'"
- Jazz Times
"Durán is a keyboard lion with taste and style."
- Frank van Herk, De Volkskrant (NL)
"Hilario is simply one hell of a modern jazz pianist who is gifted with what old-time barrelhouse and boogie players used to call 'a left hand like God', and a fertile harmonic and melodic imagination".
- Robert Palmer, jazz writer
"Hilario Durán is about the hottest pianist in any given genre... one of the true genius musicians in modern jazz, with a lot to say and more to come."
- The All Music Guide
"A pianist and composer of remarkable virtuosity...marvelous music..."
- Allaboutjazz.com

APA approves new Whiteface ski patrol building
RAY BROOK – The state Adirondack Park Agency has approved plans for a new ski patrol building at Whiteface Mountain Ski Center.
The project is contained in an amendment to the Whiteface Mountain Unit Management Plan, which the agency board adopted unanimously at its meeting Thursday.
APA Planning Director Jim Connolly said the new ski patrol building will replace an existing one on the summit of Little Whiteface. The building will also house emergency radio communications equipment for Essex County and state police, he said.
"The new structure, the design and exterior, is much nicer than what was there before, and there's a tower to hold the communications equipment," Connolly said.
Connolly said there are no significant visibility concerns with the project; the building can be seen from the top of Whiteface "and not very well viewed from anywhere else," he said.
The previous ski patrol building has already been torn down, and a foundation has been poured for the new building, Connolly said.
Officials from both the APA and the state Olympic Regional Development Authority, which runs Whiteface, say steps have been taken to minimize impact of the construction activity on the Bicknell's thrush, a rare migratory songbird that breeds at the mountain's higher elevations in the spring and early summer.
Connolly said the construction work is being done in an already disturbed area, and no tree cutting is planned as part of the project.
Surveys for the birds were conducted in the area in May and early June by state Department of Environmental Conservation staff. They determined "that the potential impact of the construction activity will not have a population-level impact on the Bicknell's thrush in the Adirondacks," APA Regulatory Programs Director Rick Weber told the agency board earlier Thursday.
"There may be some impact, yes, but in the grand scheme of things, the conclusion they're making is it will not have a population-level affect on the species," he said.
"Our staff will continue to look at the site, but I think right now there's no great alarm," said DEC Region 5 Director Robert Stegemann.
Connolly said the UMP has an increased focus on ORDA-run educational programs about Bicknell's thrush. One thing proposed in the plan is how to raise money to study the rare birds further and preserve their habitat.
Construction of the building will take place over the next few months, Connolly said. Several other projects, that were originally in the amendment to the plan, were removed and will take place at a later date, he said.
This is the third amendment to the Whiteface UMP, which was first created in 1987. It was previously updated in 1996 and 2004.

Louisville that is...
Louisville vs. North Canton @ Louisville Stadium
7 pm and on FSN
850 WKNR will be there too.
Of course, the marquee name is Eric Howard, returning all-Ohio player. (not academically...)
Watch out for Bobby Swigart for Louisville though, major D-1 offers on his end too.
Overall, should be a terrific game and maybe 2 of the best in Stark county this year. Hoover probably isn't a major player for a state title this year, simply because they are in D-1 but Louisville should be in the running come playoff time.
Drop me a line if any posters are heading into town. I'll be at a buddies kickin a few back after work and then walking over. For those that have never been to Louisville, you really can't beat the walk to the stadium which is smack dab in the middle of the suburbs around the town. Neat environment. Traffic sucks though.

So thanks and praise and love assure me Free! These rays of heaven, they lure me Free! My patience finally rewards me Free!
