Utilities worldwide are investing heavily in smart grid infrastructure that extends to homes and businesses, with the goal of improving grid reliability and efficiency through increased consumer awareness and participation. High hopes abound for grid connected homes and buildings to be better prepared and more willing to react to changing grid conditions. But, how do we enable grid connectivity today and into the future, in the midst of an evolutionary wave of standards competition and innovation?
This standard provides a solution to this problem through a modular communications interface (MCI) enabling any product to connect to any type of demand response system (Advanced Meter Reading (AMI), Smart Energy Profile (SEP), OpenADR), and/or home or building network. The concept is simple; encourage manufacturers to build an MCI interface into their products that can accept a simple communications module. Consumers and program managers are then free to select whatever communication solution works best for their particular environment.

At the beginning of this year's wedding season I was on the hunt for an outrageously talented as well as super excited new team member to add to the mix. I was looking for someone passionate and ready to learn everything that there is to learn about this crazy industry. I wanted someone with their own sense of creativity, someone who would learn from me, but also be able to put their own spin on things. I found my girl! Maria is her name and Weddings are her game. Maria is part of the design process as well as the event set-ups here at The Vine's Leaf, but she will also be a weekly contributor to the newly remodeled blog! She will be posting on whatever it is that is inspiring us over here, whether it's a fun Lover.ly Board, a recent wedding that we have done or our most coveted bloom of the moment. So here she is FOLKS…the amazing Maria Melissa!
I remember when I was the one reading blogs like this. The young dreamer at my laptop waiting to see what The Wedding Chicks were going to post next, clicking from vendor to vendor and planning weddings in my head. I was the girl with the parents that had the big expectations of me going to Med School or becoming a Lawyer. At the time, a free lance creative style job was not in the cards, so I never considered the wedding industry as a career for me. It was always a big dream, a "What if?" type of thing, until I decided to just go for it, 100% and to never give up or look back. Which is exactly why you are reading this today :)
As a kid, I was a hopeless romantic. Every two week high school "relationship" excited me at the beginning and broke me when they ended. And with every new boyfriend came a million new weddings planned in my special "Future Weddings" (notice the "s" at the end of wedding) folder on my computer's desktop. Planning weddings for myself was not only a hobby of mine but a way to bring hope to my kindred spirit after a break up. They included everything: vendors, venues, flowers, accents, accessories and a dress, a Vera Wang that I'm still in love with today. I was such a weird kid! I took a floral design class as a last resort my senior year in high school. I figured it would be easy and that there would be no way to fail it; I was partially right. For me, designing was a piece of cake– others in my class suffered. As big headed as I can be in my mind, I wondered how something so easy for me could be so difficult to others. Either way, from that point on I was smitten…my passion for weddings paired with my new found love of floral design had created a lover of all things beautiful…I fell head over heals in love with the wedding and floral industries, immersing myself into every aspect.
After multiple attempts at pursuing some sort of college education that I was interested in and passionate about, I moved to Texas to attend Wedding Planning classes (and partially to run away but that's another story). Soon I realized after shadowing my teacher/wedding planner that though wedding planning was amazing, I wasn't as passionate about it. I knew I wanted to work in the wedding industry but I didn't know exactly what my role would be. All the while, I still continued to follow wedding blogs and continued making floral arrangements as a hobby.
As funny and ironic as life is, I found The Vine's Leaf and Aly when she became a Handpicked Vendor on The Wedding Chicks years ago; I swore to myself that she was the florist to bring life to my many weddings I had planned for myself. After randomly responding to her search for an intern, here I am now, The Vine's Leaf's new(ish) intern! Every day of work with Aly is amazing. She's constantly challenging me and preparing me for nothing less than the best. I've learned so much in these short couple of months and can honestly say that I enjoy looking at my work B.A. (before Aly) and finding things I could have improved or done differently. My dreams are coming together piece by piece and way faster than I'd anticipated. And although I'm very much still following wedding blogs and planning a million weddings for myself, it's such an awarding feeling to know that I'm now also writing behind the blogs I used to follow.
I look forward to chatting with you, entertaining you and hopefully inspiring you along the way!
xo, Maria

Chief executive officer of Advanced Micro Devices, a developer of central processing units and graphics processing units, said in an interview that in the coming years the interaction between the human and the computer will change drastically. But in order to enable a drastic change, massive computing performance improvements are required.
"In the next couple of years we're poised to see a real change in the user interface for computers. You know, the keyboard and the mouse have been the ways we've all interacted with computers," said Dirk Meyer, chief exec of AMD, in an interview with San Jose Mercury News.
In fact, the decade, which is about to end, can be called the decade of the broadband Internet and high-definition visuals. But while the improvements of graphics in general – including movies, video games, graphics user interfaces, etc. – have been rather dramatic, nothing has changed when it comes to interaction between users and computers. Mr. Meyer expects this to change in the coming years.
"Given the tremendous improvement in display technologies, [stereo] 3D displays being around the corner, and the processing capability that we are going to be able to deliver with the combination of graphics and CPUs — unlocking things like face recognition, motion recognition and so on — the way in which people interact with computers, is going to change," believes Mr. Meyer.
The standards of quality will only grow, asserts the chief executive of the world's second largest designer of x86 central processing units. So, in the next few years computers will require even more horsepower to handle new tasks and interfaces. Ultimately, they will become more productive.
"As a result, people are going to start developing higher expectations of their experience from the computer and I think that's a good thing. The user experience, the user interface for computers, is not good enough, it's not very satisfying. We can make it better and more productive," claimed the head of AMD.

Einstein offers approximately 60 clubs and interest groups for students and, in many cases, other members of the Einstein community. Over the past two years, among the new clubs established has been the Einstein Swim Club. Meeting on most Wednesday evenings throughout the year, club members learn proper swimming technique from Dr. Andreas Markmann, a Yale research scientist whose girlfriend, Alena Janda is a graduate student at Einstein.
A native of Germany, Dr. Markmann learned to swim at the age of 6 and has been swimming throughout his life, also enjoying other aquatic activities such as scuba diving, windsurfing, and underwater rugby. After taking swim technique classes from national level swimmers in Munich, Germany, he developed an interest in coaching. Encouraged by private coaching experiences with friends, two years ago he joined the volunteer staff at Einstein's Falk Recreation Center, where he offers free swim classes that are open to all members of the Einstein community who are members of the center.
"Swimming is a great workout," said Dr. Markmann. "When done properly, it is a safe and gentle way to exercise and improve your endurance. There are different ways to swim fast, and we stress using our muscles and relieving our joints."
The club's mission aims to encourage members of the Einstein community to take up and commit to swimming as a regular form of exercise. "We believe that swimming is an important life skill and that lap swimming can be a safe and healthy way to improve one's well-being," noted Ms. Janda, who is one of the club's founding members. "Andreas teaches all four popular swim styles -- freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly -- with an emphasis on healthy, sustainable execution and, for those who are interested, proper form for competitive speed."
The lessons, which can be attended on a drop-in basis, offer a group learning experience for individuals at all levels, from non-swimmers to advanced swimmers. They consist of 40 minutes of drills followed by a 40-minute workout that is tailored to three levels – beginner, intermediate and advanced.
"We've got a track record of increasing pool usage at the Falk Recreation Center," said Ms. Janda, "and we encourage efficient use of pool space by teaching lane etiquette."
"I am happy to see that a lot of people have checked out our lessons, and quite a few have stayed and formed the core membership of the club, regular swimmers I really enjoy working out with," added Dr. Markmann.
Club members have represented Einstein at open water swims and triathlons throughout the state of New York. The group is in the process of planning a swim-run event slated for sometime this summer, with funds raised supporting Einstein's Community Health Outreach Clinic, or ECHO Clinic.

School food price may rise
To meet the challenge of implementing federal nutrition mandates, Fort Dodge Community School District will have to increase breakfast and lunch prices by 10 cents.
Brandon Hansel, FDCSD director of financial services, said the profit margin for the program has decreased.
"We have the new federal requirements. Those requirements for us translate into higher food costs and production costs," Hansel said. "Conversely, it's not generating any additional revenue, therefore it's putting stress on our financial situation and compressing our profitability and our margins."
Over the last three years, Hansel said, food service profits have decreased by a total of $60,000.
"We're at the point now where we want to recognize that trend, and we need to make some adjustments in terms of our pricing structure to hopefully be able to maintain profitability so we can replace equipment and that kind of thing," he said.
The 10-cent increase will be brought before the FDCSD school board Monday for approval. The fees would take effect for the 2013-14 school year in all categories, except for the adult breakfast price, which will increase 30 cents.
"This is because we're required to start serving fruit as a part of that, which adds cost to that meal, so we need to recover that value," Hansel said.
If approved by the school board, K-12 student daily breakfast would be $1.50 and student daily lunch would be $2.25.
Brenda Janssen, FDCSD director of food services, said meeting the nationwide nutritional mandates has been a challenge.
"We have to serve half a cup of legumes once a week," Janssen said. "And then they also took our vegetables and put them into subcategories, so now we have to serve leafy green vegetables, we have to serve an orange vegetable once a week."
Students are required to have a total of half a cup of fruit and/or vegetable on their tray. Condiments have been removed.
A challenge, Janssen said, is communicating with district parents and students what a student needs in order for the meal to be reimbursable.
"The general public has no idea the criteria we need to meet for that reimbursable meal," she said.
Some students, Janssen said, are simply throwing away their fruits and vegetables.
"We're doing it less now than what we were at the beginning of the school year, because they didn't understand what they needed," she said. "When we put it out at the middle school and senior high level, they helped themselves. They could take as much as they want. And I think they weren't quite sure what they should have to take or not take, so they were probably taking some of everything and what they didn't want they threw away."
Foods costs have increased. For instance, canned fruit has increased by $12 per case from last year.
Janssen said as students move through the grade levels and become more familiar with the system, they will be more readily accepting of the requirements.
"It's my thought, as well as all of us who do school nutrition," she said. "We want to offer those fresh fruits and vegetables at the elementary level so as they go through the school system they'll get used to eating that way."
The students, ultimately, benefit from having more nutritional offerings, Janssen said.
"If they take it and throw it away, we're pedaling backwards," she said. "Our toughest customers are the ones at the senior high, trying to get them to come around that it's okay to eat fresh fruits and vegetables versus going to McDonald's for French fries."
The school district's food service program is not operating at a loss, Hansel emphasized.
"We're being proactive," he said. "That's why we want to show the board this is a trend we've seen and now is the time to make adjustments to keep our food service program in a stable position."
No action has been taken yet to increase lunch prices.

Dolden: Who Has the Biggest SoundPosted by Jay Batzner in CD Review, tags: CD Review, electroacoustic, electronic, Jay Batzner
Paul Dolden
Who Has the Biggest Sound
If any composer is going to ask the musical question "Who has the biggest sound," Paul Dolden is rightfully going to be on the short list of potential composers. The almost hour-long work Who Has the Biggest Sound is quite the whirlwind of sonic activity and stylistic diversity.
Relying mostly on high-quality samples instead of synthesized sounds, Dolden keeps a lot of humanity in the sound world. Rhythm and articulation are the only real means by which the artifice of his production shows through. One could imagine, for example, the overall sound world of "The Answer is Blowing in the Winds" being played totally acoustically but the hard edge to the attacks coupled with the dryness and clarity of the timbres makes it obvious to the ear that these are all processed sounds. This movement in particular comes across mostly like an instrumental version of Paul Lansky's "chatter" pieces. Dolden's journey through various ensembles at the start of the album hits its apex in the fifth movement "Who Can Play the Fastest?" Dolden started using rock instruments and tropes in the previous movement but in "Who Can Play the Fastest" he really, to be blunt, rocks the f—k out. It is glorious.
Unfortunately, Dolden kills this energy with the introduction of a narrator with hyper-exaggerated declamation while being mimicked in real time by instrumental samples. This overt asking of the music question brings an unwanted and unwelcome campiness to the piece and reduces most of the clean crisp instrumental samples into cheesy 90's era MIDI samples. Who Has the Biggest Sound managed to have the right balance of levity and seriousness before the narrator started its aural mugging, the first 30 seconds of "My Hound is Out of Harmony" was going quite well before the narrator barges in, and for the rest of the piece Dolden seems obligated to pollute his otherwise engrossing creations with this whiny and irritating character. I love the idea of this musical question being posed by the "Center for Strategic Sound" but I think the implementation of the narration falls short. Humor is a tricky and subjective thing and something many composers avoid. Dolden's attention to electroacoustic studio techniques reassures me that while he tries to be funny he takes his art seriously.
The Un-Tempered Orchestra fortunately presents its aural landscape without a verbal guide. Having composed diatonic melodies and harmonies, Dolden uses computer processing to retune and juxtapose his material through a wide variety of tuning systems. The end result is a blurred aural line between performance and processing; a work which in some ways could be played acoustically (from a timbre, rhythm, and instrumentation point of view) and a work which could only be done via intense computer analysis and transformation. I find "Orchestra 4" to be the most sonically satisfying, especially as female voices emerge from the elongated clouds of stretched notes. These six conjoined ruminations which form The Un-Tempered Orchestra never really build into a single shape or trajectory, at least not to my ear, but I nevertheless find the whole work compelling and the final cadential resolution rather satisfying.

I have some experience with cigars which are basically cured leaves, and I can see puerh tea being kin. With cigars, storing them in a humidor can make or break them. Some good quality cigars absolutely suck if they are allowed to dry out, but the same cigar can become something quite enjoyable when kept in a humidor. This transformation can take place in as little as a week or two.
I've been reading about puerh and the aging of it and much is said about humidity and the lack of substantial humidity, in say, North America, as being a potential aging or storage issue. Is there a such a thing as a puerh humidor? Has anyone tried this? Most pu I get is dry and brittle as crackers when I open it up. I'm wondering if storing it in a controlled environment (to some extent, like cigars) where it resides in an environment of higher humidity could effect it short term / long term for the better? Or is there something fundamentally wrong with this concept?

"We didn't take no fancy rock-star airplane [to get here]. [Pause.] All right, all right, we did take a fancy rock-star airplane. But we thought about driving. "
Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano HGTE
"What exactly is the point of a $356,000 car?"
It floors me when people ask that question.
Talk them through the car's shape, its handmade interior, the soundtrack and force of its 612-hp V12 engine and the marque's mystique and you'll soon realize that with some people any attempt at explaining why this car exists is futile. They remain convinced that on public roads a Ferrari can't do much their reasonably priced family sedan doesn't do. Yes indeed, Concorde was just another airliner, and Neil Armstrong's small step for a man was just another pilot stepping off the bottom rung of a boarding ladder
If people can accept that there's a place for a Mona Lisa among paintings, a Yo-Yo Ma among cellists, a Westminster Abbey among churches, I wonder why they can't see a Ferrari 599 for what it is.
Not that the car is perfect. The original 599 was deemed by some people who know Ferraris well to be a bit soft on the edges, the sort of criticism Ferrari suffers not for long. So now there is an HGTE package for the base 599 GTB-and the circa-$450,000 GTO, essentially the street-legal version of the 599XX track car. (HGTE stands for "Handling Gran Turismo Evoluzione." All 599 examples of the 599 GTO that will be built are already spoken for. Other than deprivation of bragging rights this doesn't matter much; nine out of 10 drivers (and I place myself low among the nine) couldn't come close to using the full capability of even the tamer HGTE on the track, let alone the road.
Power-to-weight ratio and weight distribution (47 percent on the front wheels and 53 percent on the rear wheels) has been as important as ever to Ferrari with the 599, which uses aluminum for the chassis and body, unlike its 550/575 Maranello predecessor, which has a steel chassis and aluminum body and has a curb weight of 3,725 pounds-three pounds more than the base 599's. The entire front-mounted engine sits behind the front axle line, no mean feat for a six-liter V12 that still manages to preserve generous volume in the cabin. "If you can get the engine behind the front wheels the handling is incredibly different, with minimal if any under-steer," noted Ferrari North America vice president of technical services Adam Rowley.
The 599 HGTE's paddle-shifter F1 transmission is quick but no longer cutting-edge, retaining a dry twin-disc clutch. The new Ferrari 458 (F430 replacement) and California both have multi wet clutch packs (one for the even-numbered gears and another for the odd-numbered ones) between the crankshaft and the gears. Just as with a clutch pedal, driver technique determines the life of the 599's dry clutch-it prefers no-dawdle motion motivation over timid taps at the gas pedal but will tolerate them for parking. Depending on the driving mode selected with the mannetino, the 599 HGTE shifts gears in 150 or 120 milliseconds. The gains in F1 shift speed stem from technology that slightly overlaps the three functions of the shifting mechanism: it starts to throw the gear as the clutch begins to open, and as it's finishing throwing the gear the clutch is already starting to close again. However, in the swiftness stakes the single-clutch F1 cannot compete with multi-clutch transmissions.
The mannetino is Ferrari's multi-mode "sport" selector on the steering wheel, and it offers five levels of driver protection/ride stiffness. Set to the blue snowflake, it provides maximum traction control, a little less so when moved one notch clockwise to the green squirrelly tire tracks normal setting. One more click to the right applies the white sport setting, good for dry roads, stiffer suspension and quicker gearshifts. The orange race setting retains the sport-mode suspension and shift speed but provides less traction control. The spring-loaded red setting disables all the nanny electronics and unleashes raw power and handling with no intervention.
Regardless of whether or not it's at the cutting edge in 2010, the 599 HGTE's F1 transmission performs spectacularly while absorbing the punishment churned out by the 612-hp V12. During full-throttle acceleration in race mode, a brutal shudder accompanies gearshifts for a few nanoseconds as the structure absorbs the massive powertrain loads.
My neighbor, a farmer by trade and BMW M3 track racer by hobby, has an extremely long, straight, open and perfectly blacktopped driveway through one of his fields. Unbeknownst to either of us at the time, we bought matching 2003 BMW E39 M5s a couple of years ago. On a measured stretch of his driveway, he can get his M5 up to 116 mph before he has to hit the brakes. The 599 reached 130 mph in the same distance, far short of its 205+-mph top speed. The Ferrari's massive carbon-ceramic brakes (13.9-inch-diameter, 1.3-inch-thick rotors in the front) brought the car swiftly to a stop with zero fuss or drama.
I never thought I'd regard my M5 as a slug, but minutes after returning the 599 to Ferrari North America I pulled out onto busy Route 4 in northern New Jersey in the BMW and floored it. That 400-hp car suddenly felt mired in molasses. Unless you can buy one, don't drive a 599. Going back to a daily mule is like returning to the same old routine after a weekend in the hay with Scarlett Johannson; however good that old routine might be, it can never be the same.
Compared with the standard 599 GTB, the HGTE overall handling and turn-in are improved by virtue of different dampers and springs, a slightly lower ride height, thicker roll bars, stickier Pirelli tires (they cling onto any grit particles not stuck to the asphalt and fling them harmlessly but quite noisily into the wheel arches) and modular rims with 10mm more dish, adding a smidgen to the wheels' track. The HGTE rides a little more stiffly in normal mode, but not to the point that a long drive would be fatiguing. The car tickles all the senses, with exterior visual touches such as matt chrome for the radiator grille and the prancing horse on the trunk lid and, on the inside, a mixture of leather, Alcantara and carbon fiber; new carbon-fiber seats provide plenty of comfort and adjustment.
The 599 HGTE treats the driver's ears to an exhaust note that grumbles more at idle, and when the bypass valves in the exhaust system open as power builds, the noise is a magnificent racket, the noblest demise for a million atomized droplets of Shell 93. Owners of Maranellos told Ferrari they wanted a louder voice from their V12, and the 599 obliges, its bypass valves providing the best of both worlds-full-throated V12 noise under load and peace and quiet for cruising. Noted Rowley, "Exhaust design is integral to the engine these days-it's not just a pipe for expelling gases-and aftermarket exhausts that monkey with the pressure in the pipes, cats and mufflers often trigger check-engine lights that mechanics have a heck of a time tracing and fixing."
Attention to flow is much in evidence on the 599 HGTE, from the exhaust gases to the current of wind the car creates over itself. By sculpting the underfloor at the design stage in the computer and the wind tunnel, downforce can be moved to balance it between the front and rear axles. The "flying buttresses" just downwind from the doors channel airflow around the rear window and onto the nolder that forms the upturned lip of the trunk lid, and the massive diffuser between the exhaust pipes controls airflow lower down at the back end.
So, to return to the opening question, what exactly is the point of this car? Nothing, beyond confirming that mankind still has the thirst and the intelligence for pushing boundaries, for making today's best-of-the-best yesterday's milestone. It's evolution in action, our own version of the process that turned single-cell life forms into such homo sapiens as Da Vinci, Ferrari engineers and Pininfarina stylists.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (194 votes).
In short: hills steep, tough for a beginnerIn full: The course is very scenic in places. I wasn't told about the hills beforehand tho but enjoyed the challenge. Marshalls and support on 10km course superb and thanks to the marshall who helped my son on the fun run. Only gripes the fun run needed more marshalls and set off earlier than 10am as stated. Thanks Date of review: November 16, 2009
In short: Challenging but worth the trip Date of review: November 16, 2009
In short: Hilly but sunnyIn full: Lovely day for this - stewards were great. Can't believe more people havent complained about the TOILETS. There must have been 50 ladies in the queue in the sports hall with minutes running out before the start. The queue was huge in the other hall and you were not allowed to use the ones in the swimming pool (despite the posters saying you could). Just made it to the start on time. Date of review: November 16, 2009
Date of review: November 16, 2009
In short: Good race but beware of the long drag up to the endDate of review: November 16, 2009
In short: Worth a go.In full: A good challenging course, some nice uphill stretches and some very welcome downhill. Very little traffic to bother you. Just missing a few additional loo's at the start as the queues were pretty big, and finishing on tarmac would be nice rather than the 100yd mud dash, and I'm glad we run races for the enjoyment, as the Tshirt design was a shocker.Its a local race so i'll be back to do it next year.Date of review: November 16, 2009
In short: Tough yet enjoyable...In full: Tough yet enjoyable course, I really enjoyed the undulations and hills (although the hill near the end was a real killer). The race had a really friendly feel, and the marshals were very cheerful and supportive. Although the crowds were sparse the ones that were there were encouraging the runners. The t-shirt may not of been the best I've received but I didn't run the race for the t-shirt so I'm not too fussed. Would I run it again next year..? Not sure, I enjoyed the course but if I'm hunting for a PB next November then this is NOT the course to run. That said, I am very pleased that I ran the race.Well done Barnsley, you did yourselves proud.Date of review: November 16, 2009
In short: Glad I did it In full: Only my second 10k run, the first being a Cancer Research big fundraising one early this year. This was much more for 'real' runners than me. But I didn't come last, and it gave my incentive to go faster.Taking just over an hour in the last race I did was perfectly respectable, but here I was right near the back on an hour and 4 mins. It does make me want to get inside the hour mark more though, so it was a good thing to do. Everyone was very friendly - not as intimidating as it could have been!Date of review: November 16, 2009
In short: Good race, needs better organisation, offensive T shirt.Date of review: November 16, 2009
In short: Well worth itIn full: Quick course but with a few killer hills (one from 4 miles to 5 miles)Finish funnel not exactly where you think it'll beWould prefer km markers rather than mile markers especially for a 10km raceDate of review: November 16, 2009

The latest 0.9.3 update of Squirrel contains some changes in the way iCloud databases are handled. As a result, some users may have found that their database seemed to have been deleted. This post contains explanations about why this happens and how to restore your database.
iCloud in Mavericks
Starting with Mavericks, opening an iCloud enabled database is instantaneous, whereas it could take up to a few minutes before. The connection to iCloud happens in the background and data appears as it becomes available. This has the advantage to let you work while the database is being downloaded and reconstructed.
Because of this change, Squirrel 0.9.3 now stores its iCloud database in a different location, in order not to interfere with previous versions of Squirrel on the same computer. Hence, at first launch, the database will be loaded from iCloud in the background.
When downloading from iCloud, your database is being retreived as multiple transactions logs which represent successive edits you've performed in the past. Those logs are successibely being applied to a base store to get the latest version of your database. This can take up to a few minutes so it is important you give some time to Squirrel for this.
Problems can happen when those transaction logs are corrupted. If a corrupted transaction log is generated, the sync can stop accross all devices and databases cannot be retrieved from iCloud anymore. This is an issue we have been having for months, as iCloud is directly managed by OS X and iOS. Those corruption bugs rely in the system and we are dependent on Apple to fix them. That said, the stability of iCloud has considerably improved over the past months.
How to retrieve a database
If your database never gets downloaded and reconstructed from iCloud, here is how to retrieve it:
- Go to the Finder, and select "Go" > "Go to folder"…
- Copy the following URL: ~/Library/Mobile Documents/KGK6E7FS65~com~squirrelapp~squirrelmac/Documents/LocalData.nosync
You should see a file with a name composed by a single identifier followed by the .squirrel extenstion. If you have more than one file, choose the file with the lastest modification date.
- Copy this file to your desktop, and rename it to "Database.squirrelbackup".
- Launch Squirrel, and select File > Database > Restore…
- Select the backup file on your desktop and restore it
This database will then be sent to iCloud, and will be available to all your devices.

About the Author: Atul Keshap serves as Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asian Affairs.
South of Mumbai in the State of Karnataka, the city of Bangalore sits at the center of Southern India. Over the past 20 years, Bangalore has become a well-known center for Indian enterprise as it is sometimes referred to as the "Silicon Valley of India." As one of the fastest growing cities in India, it serves as a central nucleus for India's IT and other major industries.
Following my visits to IBM and Wipro, it's clear that Bangalore is the hub of India's private enterprise and now, along with Hyderabad, even a hub of American enterprise as well. India's enormous economic growth and consumer market make it a natural partner with U.S. commerce. As our countries continue to move forward, there will be great potential for both of our economies to complement one another.
Continuing with our program tour, my U.S. Consulate General Chennai and U.S. Embassy New Delhi colleagues and I had the opportunity to meet in Bangalore with the team behind Mahindra Reva electric cars. Reva is one of the world leaders in electric cars, having produced three thousand of them since 2001. Reva hopes electric cars will induce consumers worldwide to reduce their use of hydrocarbons during routine in-city commuting, thereby reducing emissions and using energy more efficiently. Reva is focused on expansion, including a possible manufacturing unit that could create jobs in the United States. They also have American engineers on their team, symbolizing the convergence of our knowledge-intensive economies in tackling energy and climate change challenges.
I am inspired by the potential that commercial cooperation between the United States and India has for the mutual benefit of both of our economies in terms of job creation and new product development -- and it's just a start. In touring the facilities and in speaking with Indian executives and workers here, it is clear we have so much to gain from each other and we are clearly moving forward together!

So glad we are helping Indas silicon valley but what about help for the US silicon valley. We need help desparately.
Kiran in New York writes:
to the previous commenter (Pamela G. in West Virginia),
help can be provided to US Silicon Valley, if the USA government can address the legal immigrants backlog problem for permanent residency in this country which is around 300,000 people who have paid their taxes and been a good samaritan in this country & have got masters in USA etc. These are highly skilled people who have been held hostage for a comprehensive solution to immigration where the majority of 12 million are undocumented.
If USA congress resolves the backlog of 300,000 legal immigrants who have been waiting for permanent residency we can unearth at least 3 to 4 google kind of corporations. Note, these are people who never violated any law and are now frustrated waiting for a solution.
The easier way for these immigrants are leave USA and take their entreprenurial mindset to countries like India and China.
Resolve the green card backlog(which is sometimes for 10-15 years) for highly-skilled immigrants who have done their education and research in USA by allowing them to stay here and giving them permanent residency via a piecemeal bill than holding them hostage via CIR which is for undocumented.
USA will get all the help in its own Silicon Valley by doing this or else jobs and talented people will be outsourced to other countries with USA losing its edge slowly...

@ Pamela G. in West Virginia --
I couldn't agree with you more. I'm glad we are working with other countries, and I do believe that helping to build other economies is in our national interest. But we have a lot of work to do here in America.
Just today I read a Yahoo Financial article detailing 22 statistics that show America's middle class is being "systematically wiped out of existence." Here they are:
• 83 percent of all U.S. stocks are in the hands of 1 percent of the people.
• 61 percent of Americans "always or usually" live paycheck to paycheck, which was up from 49 percent in 2008 and 43 percent in 2007.
• 66 percent of the income growth between 2001 and 2007 went to the top 1% of all Americans.
• 36 percent of Americans say that they don't contribute anything to retirement savings.
• A staggering 43 percent of Americans have less than $10,000 saved up for retirement.
• 24 percent of American workers say that they have postponed their planned retirement age in the past year.
• Over 1.4 million Americans filed for personal bankruptcy in 2009, which represented a 32 percent increase over 2008.
• Only the top 5 percent of U.S. households have earned enough additional income to match the rise in housing costs since 1975.
• For the first time in U.S. history, banks own a greater share of residential housing net worth in the United States than all individual Americans put together.
• In 1950, the ratio of the average executive's paycheck to the average worker's paycheck was about 30 to 1. Since the year 2000, that ratio has exploded to between 300 to 500 to one.
• As of 2007, the bottom 80 percent of American households held about 7% of the liquid financial assets.
• The bottom 50 percent of income earners in the United States now collectively own less than 1 percent of the nation's wealth.
• Average Wall Street bonuses for 2009 were up 17 percent when compared with 2008.
• In the United States, the average federal worker now earns 60% more than the average worker in the private sector.
• The top 1 percent of U.S. households own nearly twice as much of America's corporate wealth as they did just 15 years ago.
• In America today, the average time needed to find a job has risen to a record 35.2 weeks.
• More than 40 percent of Americans who actually are employed are now working in service jobs, which are often very low paying.
• or the first time in U.S. history, more than 40 million Americans are on food stamps, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture projects that number will go up to 43 million Americans in 2011.
• This is what American workers now must compete against: in China a garment worker makes approximately 86 cents an hour and in Cambodia a garment worker makes approximately 22 cents an hour.
• Approximately 21 percent of all children in the United States are living below the poverty line in 2010 - the highest rate in 20 years.
• Despite the financial crisis, the number of millionaires in the United States rose a whopping 16 percent to 7.8 million in 2009.
• The top 10 percent of Americans now earn around 50 percent of our national income.

Embracing the true spirit of festival hosting, Farmfestival started as a party for friends, before it grew to encompass friends of friends, friends of friends of friends and so on. It supports local producers and suppliers, gives a chunk of the proceeds to charity and is known for its all-embracing friendliness.
Headliners: Ghostpoet, Art Brut
Dates: 26 - 27 July
Location: Bruton, Somerset
Tickets: Weekend tickets £50
Other line-up highlights:
Black Strobe, DJ Die, Reeps One, Laid Blak, The Lovely Eggs, Son Of Dave (full line-up)
Hevy Fest
A bona fide punk-fest bringing together the best of US and UK talent, not to mention some rare festival exclusives (Descendents!), without getting all 'Warped Tour' on everything.
Headliners: Black Flag, Hatebreed
Dates: 2 - 4 August
Location: Port Lympne Wild Animal Park, Kent
Tickets: Weekend tickets £99
Other line-up highlights:
Comeback Kid, Horse The Band, The Menzingers, Metz, Circle Takes The Square, Tigers Jaw, Heights (full line-up)
Secret Garden Party
This year's theme is 'Superstition' and we expect it to be as wholeheartedly embraced as ever in a variety of weird costumes, set-pieces and spectacle. If you like your festivals colourful, exhibitionist and full of invention, this could be for you.
Headliners: Soulwax, Django Django
Dates: 25 - 28 July
Location: Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire
Tickets: Weekend tickets from £191
Other line-up highlights:
Regina Spector, Goldie, Big Youth, Bastille, Public Service Broadcasting, Bobby Tank, Willy Mason, Zane Lowe (full line-up)
Beacons Festival
A high brow selection of indie, dance and hip hop hosted within the scenic Yorkshire Dales. Beacons appeals to the serious muso without being po-faced - conveying a relaxed air and a very definite sense of fun.
Headliners: Bonobo, Django Django, Local Natives
Dates: 16 - 18 August
Location: Heslaker Farm, Skipton
Tickets: Weekend tickets from £109.50, day tickets from £35
Other line-up highlights:
Solange, John Talabot, David Rodigan, Oneman, Dutch Uncles, Fucked Up, Theo Parrish, Ghostpoet, Bicep (full line-up)
There's (a really quite valid) argument that, with sponsorship from Vans and Relentless and a capacity of 14,500, Boardmasters is not a boutique festival at all. We've included it here because it offers big festival names in a top location for under £90 and its popularity with extreme sports types gives it a flavour of its own. A definite alternative.
Headliners: Basement Jaxx, The Vaccines, Ben Howard
Dates: 7 - 11 August
Location: Watergate Bay, Newquay, Cornwall
Tickets: Weekend tickets from £105, day tickets from £43
Other line-up highlights:
Everything Everything, Miles Kane, Frightened Rabbit, The Joy Formidable, Grand Master Flash, Tom Odell, MJ Cole, Delphic (full line-up)
Standon Calling
Hosted in the grounds of founder Alex Trenchard's manor house, Standon is one of the flagship 'boutiques'. Its 'DIY 'til I die' attitude, Standon-only quirkiness (swimming pool with sound system, disco in the cowshed) and late-running schedule, create an experience that events charging twice the price can't match.
Headliners: De La Soul, Band Of Skulls, Digitalism
Dates: 3 - 5 August
Location: Standon, Hertfordshire
Tickets: Weekend tickets from £99
Other line-up highlights:
Alunageorge, Bastille, The D.O.T, Toy, The Joy Formidable, Public Service Broadcasting, King Charles (full line-up)
Morphing from a house party (in a field) that sort of spun out of control into a fully-fledged festival, Leopallooza now aims to showcase local bands and entice acts to play an area full of music lovers, but somehow always missed by touring bands.
Headliners: To be announced
Dates: 2 - 4 August
Location: Bude, Cornwall
Tickets: Weekend tickets £60, Sunday only tickets £15
Other line-up highlights:

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton joined partners in signing two Memoranda of Understanding on Haiti recovery projects. The first memorandum commemorates the partnership with the Government of Haiti to invest in an industrial park in the Port-au-Prince region, and the second memorandum commemorates the partnership with the Government of Haiti, the United States, and France in the rebuilding of the General University Hospital in Port-au-Prince.
Secretary Clinton said, "In the wake of the terrible quake, many spoke about the need, not only to rebuild what was lost, but to fundamentally re-imagine the Haitian landscape by building a stronger economy, better infrastructure, and a sturdier social system, not just in Port-au-Prince but nationwide.
"And the two MOUs that have been signed today will support that effort. They will encourage progress in two areas that are key to Haiti's long-term recovery: creating jobs and providing a foundation for rebuilding the country's health system."
Regarding the first Memorandum of Understanding between the Government of Haiti, the United States Government, the Inter-American Development Bank, the International Finance Corporation, and Sae-A Trading Company, the Secretary said, "[It] is designed to establish an industrial park and a garment manufacturing operation in Haiti with the potential to create more than 10,000 permanent jobs. And these are not just any jobs; these are good jobs with fair pay that adhere to international labor standards. And the impact on Haiti's economy has enormous potential for being significant and sending a message that Haiti is open for business again.
"And we look forward to working with our partners in the private sector to leverage capital and create these jobs, and with them, the better lives that Haitians are seeking for themselves and their families."
With Haitian Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive and the French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner, Secretary Clinton signed the second Memorandum of Understanding that commits each government to help rebuilding the central public hospital for Port-au-Prince. She said, "Since January 12th, it has been serving thousands of people, even though it is crippled by physical damage, limited equipment, limited electrical and other critical services. The United States and France will each invest $25 million to rebuild this hospital, to create a facility that meets the needs of the Haitian people, and the Haitian Government will contribute $3.2 million in funding.
"This work is important and there is no time to waste. As we saw on the front page of the New York Times today, people are suffering. They need jobs, they need health care, they need us -- their own government and the international community -- to follow through on our promises and translate our good intentions to real concrete progress on the ground.
"I'm looking forward to the upcoming session of the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission. It is very important to keep in mind what both the prime minister and the foreign minister said, that the extent of the devastation was enormous, and those who expect progress immediately are unrealistic and doing a disservice to the many people who are working so hard. But to expect less than concerted effort every day that produces results would be a great tragedy."
In closing, Secretary Clinton said, "So we will work hard with all of you, and we especially thank our private sector partners and the financing teams that have put together the first memorandum. And we look forward to seeing the progress that can come with the second memorandum in a tangible demonstration of our commitment to the Haitian people."

Comments about Men's Insulated Neoteric Jacket:
A great ski jacket for a tall person. Warm with a good helmet compatible hood. This jacket would really have been put over the top with the inclusion of a sleeve pocket like the Freeride to hold a passcard and other small essentials. I'm really pleased with all of Eddie Bauer's jackets.
Comments about Men's Insulated Neoteric Jacket:
I would love to return this jacket and get a different one. I have had only positives from Eddie Bauer Jackets but this one was not as warm as I would have expected.
Comments about Men's Insulated Neoteric Jacket:
Contrary to some reviews and descriptions, this jacket is not waterproof. The zippers are not waterproof. The zippers on the original Neoteric, and the zippers on the women's insulated Neoteric, are waterproof zippers. This makes the jacket waterproof. Another problem with this jacket is that the Primaloft One insulation in it went out of date and production over two years ago. The women's insulated jacket was updated last year with Primaloft Gold, which is the current version of the outdated Primaloft One. The women's insulated Neoteric jacket appears to be excellent and to deserve the name of an insulated Neoteric. It is unclear, however, what justifies the name and high price of the men's insulated Neoteric. It is not waterproof (like the Neoteric) and it does not use premium materials (like the Neoteric and the women's insulated Neoteric). Other than these apparent problems, I like the jacket. Good weight (of an outdated insulation) combined with a good strength/weight/outer layer - not as strong as the original Neoteric, but not as thin/fragile as many competing jackets with similar weight of insulation. Although it is a good jacket in various ways, why does it lack the better qualify features of the women's insulated Neoteric? Why did EB update the insulation in the women's but not the men's insulated Neoteric? Why did EB put waterproof zippers on the women's Neoteric (like the original Neoteric) but not on the men's Neoteric (unlike the original Neoteric)? Finally, please let me repeat that I do like this jacket. Apart from the concerns described above, the only potential problem I might have noticed with the jacket is a possible uneven weighting of the insulation in certain parts of the jacket, such as in certain parts of the sleeves. Nonetheless, I have enjoyed getting good use of this jacket many times.
Comments about Men's Insulated Neoteric Jacket:
Wore this jacket along with the powder search pants to come up with a dry fishing trip in Canada.
It rained 4 of 5 days, and I watched the others outfits fail, some on the first day. These were great, were very non-restrictive and comfortable.

St. Louis Silver Dollar Show
David Akers (1975/88): Few, if any, U.S. gold coin issues come more well worn than this very rare date. Since all 1875-CC Eagles are softly struck, the result is that obtaining an 1875-CC with a presentable appearance is nearly impossible. This issue is tied with the 1864-S and 1867-S in rarity according to average grade. Overall, this date is similar in rarity to the 1872-CC, 1873-CC and 1876-CC, all three of which have substantially lower mintages than the 1875-CC.
Ron Guth:
The Saddle Ridge Hoard of gold coins, discovered in 2013 in northern California, contained only a single exaple of an 1875-CC $10. However, at PCGS AU55, this piece was significant enough to make it into the Condition Census for this date.

The conference with the highest average compensation for its head football coaches this season is not the one you might think.
It's the Big 12, whose 10 coaches are pulling down slightly less than $3 million per man, according to USA TODAY Sports' annual analysis of major-college football coaches' pay.
The Southeastern Conference, which led the field by far last season, saw a nearly quarter-million-dollar decrease in its average and now has the second-highest: more than $2.7 million per coach.
Next is the Big Ten, but it's a long way back at $2.3 million.
The SEC does have four of the eight highest-paid coaches, including defending national champion Alabama's Nick Saban who received a contract restructuring after last season that moved him past Texas' Mack Brown and into the No. 1 position.
But Brown and Oklahoma's Bob Stoops give the Big 12 two of the three coaches making more than $4.5 million, and their conference has two more coaches among the survey's top 11.The Big 12's average increased by a little more than $466,000 compared to last season's, or 19%.
SPECIAL REPORT: USA TODAY Sports' annual look at NCAA coaches' pay
DATABASE: Check salaries on NCAA football coaches
MORE: Ohio State adjusts Meyer's bonus to hinge on AP poll
However, Pacific-12 Conference schools, which began sharing the revenue from a new and greatly enhanced TV rights package this year, had the greatest increase over last season by dollars and by percentage.
The Pac-12's average increased by more than $556,000, or 35%.
Making the Pac-12's increase even more significant is that the conference comprises the same schools it did last season, and Colorado's Jon Embree saw no change to his $725,000 pay, which is the lowest at a public school in a conference whose champion automatically qualifies for the Bowl Championship Series. Oregon's contract with Chip Kelly called for a $700,000 pay boost this season, and Arizona, Arizona State, Washington State and UCLA made coaching changes that resulted in increased compensation.
The swings involving the Big 12's and SEC's averages are a product of coaching changes, realignment and the difference in how public-school and private-school compensation is recorded.
The coaches at the schools that joined the Big 12 this season – West Virginia and TCU – have combined pay that is greater than the combined pay of the coaches at Missouri and Texas A&M, which departed the Big 12 for the SEC. TCU's Gary Patterson made nearly $3.5 million during the period covered by private schools' most recent federal tax returns – the 2010 calendar year.
Meanwhile, Arkansas went from having Bobby Petrino at more than $3.6 million last season to John L. Smith at $850,000 this season and Mississippi went from Houston Nutt at nearly $2.8 million to Hugh Freeze at $1.5 million.

Come out of the holidays lighter and cheerier!
At our weight loss camp we know how important it is to continue our healthy eating during the holidays, but we also know that these holidays only come around once a year and it's okay to indulge a bit!
On the actual holidays (Thanksgiving and Christmas), eat what you want! It's a special time of year with special foods that we don't get everyday. But for all the days in between and around the holidays (there are 54 days between Halloween and Christmas and 60 till New Year's day), stick to your food and exercise plan and you'll be successful in continuing with your health goals even during the most challenging time of year.
Tips for Parties:
- Don't go to parties on an empty stomach
- Eat very well the rest of the day, being mindful of portion sizes – and eat a little lighter than usual if you know you'll be eating extra for dinner
- Limit snacking on appetizers.
- One-bite rule – if you feel obligated to or just want to try all of the dishes at a party, just get one bite of each item so you get a taste but don't end up with too much by the end of the meal.
- Eat mindfully! Especially if you're going for the one-bite rule, eat slowly and savor each bite. This will allow you to enjoy all of the same foods but be satisfied on smaller amounts.
- Make sure you bring a healthy dish – this guarantees you'll have "safe" food to eat no matter what the circumstances.
- If you are in charge of planning a party (home or office party), give everyone a theme of "healthy holidays" where the goal is to bring lightened up versions of holiday recipes
- Try to incorporate all of the food groups into your main meal like you would for other normal meals. This helps to balance your plate and keep you from getting too much of any one item.
- Try hanging around areas other than where the food is located (out of site, out of mind!)
The rest of the time: (All the days around Thanksgiving and Christmas)
- Have a little extra discipline with food choices, making sure to watch portion sizes and eat an overall balance among all food groups
If you follow these simple steps, you can't lose anything but pounds!

Dang man all this talk about pizza had me dusting off the conveyor tonight. Here's the latest MLBP from my kitchen.
I have gotten away from the boiled down malt liquor and started using beer straight. Not quite the same but sure is a hell of a lot easier. Here you go..481g All Trumps Flour (Unbromated)232g Red Hook ESB10g Salt10g Lard10g Sugar6g Tones Garlic Romano Seasoning3g IDY (Fleischmann's)This is enough to make a 16" pie in the 0.125-0.2 thickness range. This one was a 48 hour cold ferment. The All Trumps isn't that hydrated at 48%, but I have found if you just dump it into a bag all crumbly and refrigerate a few hours it will become wetter. You can then press it into a ball. I actually made two doughs, one I let ferment at RT for 4 hours, then put it in the cooler. The other went into the cooler directly after mixing. The RT ferment was very flat with not a lot of bubbles going on. So the cracker crust rule still applies, undermix the dough and don't develop it too much. Even with the sheeter I have had the best results abiding by this rule.
It appears that Tone's has stopped making the garlic romano seasoning. I can't find it on their website and it's getting harder to find online. I substituted Garlic Romano Sprinkle by a company called "Durkee." I don't know how similar this is to Tone's but I like the extra flavor (and SMELL) it added to the crust. It was also good on the bread sticks I made with the dough scraps -- melted butter, salt, and Garlic Romano sprinkle -- yum.
Anyone know if Round Table docks their dough?
*THAT SMELL is a trademark of DNA Dan.
I have used the "Find" function to go through all 6 pages of this thread and have not found the word "deactivated". I bought a bag of rolls yesterday with a "clean label" designed to appeal to the health conscious folks but baked by a maker of extended shelf life breads. One of the ingredients on the label is deactivated yeast. Searching Google for deactivated yeast in quotes ("deactivated yeast") leads to all sorts of hits, many of which were posted by vegans. A lot mention the term "cheesy", which I found interesting since we discussed adding cheese powder in one of the cloning threads.Anybody have any experience with these products? Some deactivated yeasts, such as the brewer's yeast products sold in health foods stores are bitter, so these can be eliminated. I'm trying to avoid buying a lot of samples that others have already shown to be unsuitable for pizza making. Health Foods stores and even Whole Foods are supposed to sell ones suitable for cooking and baking. Of course, the food ingredient manufacturers also have various types out there including for use as a dough relaxer which is probably why they put it in the rolls I bought.Life and work got in the way of researching Shakey's. I still have the samples in my freezer that my neighbor brought back from California a few months ago. I pulled one piece from the freezer and smelled it before heating it. Getting plain cheese slices makes life a lot easier. Even frozen, the slice had THAT SMELL (tm). They are dumping something into Shakey's mix to improve the flavor of the dough. Figuring out what is the hard (and expensive) part.

Our "Photo of the Week" comes to us from Nick Merrill, who serves on the Secretary of State's strategic communications team and captured a moment during her senior staff meeting on Monday, January 7. During this staff meeting, the Secretary was greeted by a standing ovation from the 75 people assembled, including all of her deputies, under secretaries, assistant secretaries, and special envoys. Then, Deputy Secretary of State Tom Nides presented the Secretary with a gift box, which included a football helmet with the State Department seal and a football jersey with the number 112, which symbolizes the number of countries that she's visited as Secretary of State.
"...[The Secretary] loved it. She thought it was cool," State Department Spokesperson Victoria Nuland said. "But then, being Hillary Clinton, she wanted to get right to business. So we do what we always do in that meeting, went around the room, and she heard from everybody what they're working on and what's coming forward."
During the meeting, the Secretary and her team discussed a broad range of policies underway and particularly focused on President Karzai's visit to Washington, D.C. You can view more "behind the scenes" photographs from the Secretary's meeting with her senior staff, as well as President Karzai's visit, on the State Department's Flickr account.

@ Sarah G,
Good to see she's fully recovered from illness and injury...and back doing her thing @ State!
I guess if I were to offer her a citizen's advice on re-entering private life after such a public position of global responsibility...it would go something like this;
" Madam Secretary, you needn't worry about what the future will bring as you hand the dept over and transition out of being sec. of State, not because Sen. Kerry is fit and able to carry on the president's foreign policy, but because the Mayans were interpreted badly ...dead wrong as it were, and the world will take care of itself regardless of the idiots out there who would start wars and strive for chaos on a global scale.
As I...the citizen, consider this a "tag team" match...and Madam Secretary you are just "tagging up" in the great wrestling match between the sane and the insane.
I do belive you and the sane are winning, despite any claims to the contrary."
Best regards,

I wish I could buy just a couple for my house, I don't have a pizzeria
does any of you guys has any experience with these plates or with this vendor? I know price is higher than but I may get free shipping.thankshttp://gdprestaurantsupplies.com/product.php?productid=17845&cat=252&page=1
Check out the two decorated versions on that link. Marty
Nico, you saw those plates at my house. I've had them for several years and they are still perfect.I called and talked to them, and they gave me a much better price than they had on the website.
Nico, If you can get them without shipping, would you order 6 for me, and I'll meet you someplace to get them?
Craig - can the porcelain stand up to a cutting wheel, or do you cut the pizzas then transfer them to the plates?
For about two years now I've been cutting on the plates, and there isn't a single mark on them.
So which ones do you have exactly Craig? I am assuming these? http://gdprestaurantsupplies.com/product.php?productid=17845&cat=252&page=1Thank you,Chad
These plates look great (gdprestaurantsupplies.com/product.php?productid=17845&cat=252&page=1). I'm thinking about ordering 6 of them.Craig, does a 12" pizza cut easily on these plates or does the rim get in the way a little?Also, would the plates shown in the link by aeneas1 allow the underside of the pizza to breath a little more? It seems that when you put a hot pizza on a flat surface, the underside can steam a little. Would the ribbing prevent that more?

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS/AP) — U.S. aviation officials are no longer allowing foreign airlines to land alongside another plane when touching down at San Francisco International Airport.
The Federal Aviation Administration said Tuesday it implemented the change Sunday to minimize distractions during a critical phase of flight.
The change comes in the aftermath of the Asiana Airlines crash, and on same day the FAA started advising foreign airlines to use a GPS system instead of visual reckonings when landing at SFO.
In the past, two planes could approach SFO side by side if the weather is clear. Domestic carriers can do that, but air traffic controllers are now staggering the arrivals of foreign carriers.
FAA spokesman Ian Gregor said the agency hasn't seen any significant delays as a result of the change.
