I note Australia is not included in the bar graph Ecological Footprints by Nation, not in the Excel workbook, Ecological Footprints & Biocapacity 2006. Please, could you tell me why not?
Humanity Now Demanding 1.4 Earths
One the eve of the Copenhagen climate conference, Global Footprint Network is releasing data today that reveals a growing gap between human demand on ecological services and the rate at which nature can supply those services. It would now take nearly one and a half Earths to generate all the resources humanity consumes and absorb all our CO2 emissions, according to the latest Ecological Footprint and biocapacity calculations. These figures are based upon source data from 2006, the most recent year for which such data are available.
The data show that humanity's demand on the biosphere for providing natural resources and absorbing carbon dioxide emissions is 44 percent more than what nature can provide. This ecological overshoot means it now takes approximately 18 months for the Earth to regenerate what we use in one year. The urgent threats we are facing today - most notably climate change, but also biodiversity loss, shrinking forests, declining fisheries and freshwater stress - are symptoms of this trend.
"The future will be shaped by these resource limitations, so, it's clearly in the self-interest of every country to transition quickly from carbon and resource-intensive economies to the economies of the future." Global Footprint Network President Mathis Wackernagel said. "While international agreements are critical, many nations are not taking a 'wait-and-see' approach, rather they are investing now to take advantage of the world's demand for renewable energy and clean technology.
Who Uses What
Every year, Global Footprint Network calculates the Ecological Footprint of the world's nations and humanity as a whole, and compares that with biocapacity, the amount of resources nature is able to produce. The data show that in 2006, the most recent year for which data are available, humanity's Ecological Footprint grew almost 2 percent from the year before, and 22 percent from a decade before, due to both rising population and per capita consumption. At the same time, biocapacity has not increased, and may even have fallen slightly.
The average Ecological Footprint per person worldwide is 2.6 global hectares (6.5 global acres), while the average biocapacity available per person is 1.8 global hectares (4.5 global acres.) But some countries' level of ecological demand per person is much higher than world average, and some is much lower.
The United Arab Emirates has the highest Ecological Footprint per capita, 10.3 global hectares (26 global acres). The Emirates adopted a national Ecological Footprint Initiative in 2007 and has been working to reduce its Footprint. Along with investing billions in renewable energy and other sustainability initiatives, UAE researchers and government agencies are working with Global Footprint Network to identify policies that could significantly cut the country's per capita Footprint.
The average American has an Ecological Footprint of 9.0 global hectares (23 acres) – the size of 17½ American football fields. The average European has a Footprint of 4.5 global hectares, half that of the average American, but still well above both the world average and what is available per person.
On the other end of the scale are Malawi, Haiti, Nepal, and Bangladesh, with Footprints of about half a global hectare (1.25 acres), in most cases too small to provide for basic food, shelter and sanitation.
Click here for a bar graph of Ecological Footprints by Nation
Population is another critical factor driving overshoot. The productivity of our ecosystems has not kept pace with increases in population. The result is that as our numbers expand, the amount of biocapacity available per person shrinks.
The U.S. now requires 23 percent of world biocapacity, while China – which has a much lower per capita Footprint but over four times greater total population – requires 21 percent. Together, China and the U.S. require almost half of all human demand on nature's services. China's resource use is rising at a much faster rate due to population growth, suggesting it will soon surpass the U.S. in total consumption, although the U.S. remains much higher per person.
The 2009 Account calculations are the most detailed ever performed, using about 6,000 data points from U.N. statistics per country per year. This year's edition has limited the number of published countries to those that have robust data sets. To produce results for the remaining countries, Global Footprint Network welcomes additional research with those countries' statistical offices to produce meaningful, consistent data sets. Such collaborations are already underway with a number of countries (www.footprintnetwork.org/reviews).
Changing the Curve
Despite these sobering findings, there are key opportunities to change our trajectory. "Even as world leaders have acknowledged that an agreement at Copenhagen is out of reach, governments we work with from Ecuador to the United Arab Emirates are seeing the importance of taking bold unilateral action."
"Once city, country and business leaders realize that the best way to remain competitive and prepared for the future is to make the policy decisions and drive the technological innovations we need to live within nature's means, we will begin to change these trends," Wackernagel said. "The good news is that, many governments we work with are moving forward to reduce their Ecological Footprint, no matter what happens next month in Copenhagen. These leaders realize the longer they wait, the greater the risks to their economies and their citizen's well-being.

• Learn about licensing National Footprint Accounts data.
A small, personal action can make a difference because it acts as an encouragement to others - and I'm thinking here of potential policymakers, or those currently doing the deals in Copenhagen. For instance, installing a solar hot water system in your home might only help to reduce global carbon emissions in a very small way - and might seem to be cancelled out by a big polluting Chinese coal-fired power station - but it will prompt friends and neighbours to consider doing the same and will enable world leaders to say that there is popular demand for a greener world and challenge other countries to take the bigger measures that are needed in the long run.
Here in the UK grants are available to help with the cost of installing solar hot water systems (details can be found here: http://www.solaruk.com/grants.asp). Public sector organisations and charities are now eligible for grants as well as private households.

Skip to comments."EXPELLED: No Intelligence Allowed" I just saw the movie. This may be a re-post.
Posted on 12/12/2009 7:26:56 AM PST by PatriotCJC
Thank you Ben Stein!!! This movie is a MUST SEE!
Where did you see it?
One of the "ShowTime" channels
Thanks...I'm going to check out Amazon and see if I can buy the DVD.
I agree with your post!!!
I watched it last night. IT WAS VERY GOOD!!!
So? If you expect to agree with other human beings 100% of the time, you are going to be deeply disappointed for the rest of your life.
Every other week, a seller on eBay sells Expelled. Jayandmarie is the seller, I picked mine up for $1.51 + $3 s+h (was actually less, as I bought a bunch of cds and dvds at the same time.) They'll probably start up again on Monday, as they weren't selling them this week. All their auctions start at a penny, think the highest point I saw Expelled was $3.50, and I got my order a couple days after I paid for it.
Also picked up a few of Zero's inauguration cds to give to friends who voted for him. I'm sure they'll be excited to get a bit of hope and change this Christmas.
Ben Stein is very bright. I don't agree with him all the time. I first saw him on Ben Stein's money. And a liberal lady made a crack about Racist Republicans. Ben gave her an education right on the show. It was really funny. He just quoted so many facts the ladies head was spinning.
Yes indeed.
The fraud that is the "global warming scare" is VERY akin to the fraud that is "the theory of evolution" which is, of course, taught to hundreds of millions as "fact", not "theory."
Am very glad that Ben Stein's documentary is now available on TV to those who have the extra cable channels at least.
I saw it when it came out = in the movie theater.
Awesome job. Thank you, Ben Stein.
Libs don't want a straight on debate (example: Gore on warming). They just want to shout the loudest.
BTW, netflix rents this movie.
Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed (2008) from their own website...
[sold out right now]
If you want to see some comments about it at this P2P site (link below), they've got a few upset people... LOL...
At PirateBay BitTorrent site (see their comments and can download if you want...)
BTW, netflix rents this movie.
NetFlix is great for seeing all sorts of DVDs like this, if you want -- and don't want to buy it. I would recommend them. And if you do want to save any, you can do it on your computer.
I got one low-quality copy from a BitTorrent site and it's good for showing and giving people an idea of what it's about. They can buy one if they want it...
Am very glad that Ben Steins documentary is now available on TV to those who have the extra cable channels at least.
Anyone was able to buy the DVD for quite a long time now, and also rent it (like one that was mentioned here, NetFlix...), and also download it, too...
I also remember when it first came out at the movies and I went to see it there. I've seen it several more times, over again, from my download on my computer too, and also to show other people when I get a chance.
Great info...Thank You!!
I've always found that everyone is "really stupid" somewhere... and that includes everyone... LOL...
[I won't be telling you where that is with me... :-) ...]
Thanks for that info.
I hope this documentary is circulated and viewed in exponentially increasing numbers.
It appears that may be happening.
Glad to see it.
Thanks S.T.
I'm confessing nothin'! :-)
Absolutely and amazing movie when you consider the scams of today....shows Hitler and Stalin taking the same path as Global Warming scammers, a Marxist President, and a culpable Dem run congress.
A must see!
The freedom to legitimately challenge Big Sciences orthodoxy without persecution.
The debate over evolution is confusing and to some, bewildering: Wasnt this all settled years ago? The answer to that question is equally troubling: Yes and no.
The truth is that a staggering amount of new scientific evidence has emerged since Darwins 150-year-old theory of lifes origins. Darwin had no concept of DNA, microbiology, The Big Bang, Einsteins Theory of Relativity or of the human genome.
Each of these discoveries has, in one way or another, led a growing number of scientists to reconsider the simple view espoused by Darwin that life is a random, purposeless, chance occurrence. The universe, and life itself is turning out to be far more complex and mysterious than Darwin could possibly have imagined.
Darwins theory isnt a single idea. Instead, it is made up of several related ideas, each supported by specific arguments. Of the three, only Evolution #1 can be said to be scientifically settled.
When you see the word evolution. You should ask yourself, Which of the three definitions is being used? Because arguments and evidence supporting #1 do not support #2 or #3!
The theory of intelligent design is simply an effort to empirically detect whether the apparent design in nature acknowledged by virtually all biologists is genuine design (the product of an intelligent cause) or is simply the product of an undirected process such as natural selection acting on random variations.
Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed rejects the notion that the case is closed, and exposes the widespread persecution of scientists and educators who are pursuing legitimate, opposing scientific views to the reigning orthodoxy.
The American publics awareness and beliefs vis-à-vis our governments expanding role in defining the curriculum in Americas schools, universities and institutions of science.
Neo-Darwinian theory contends that life is the result of a random, purposeless process.
Neo Darwinian theory is taught in schools as if it is the only plausible scientific explanation of how life originated and developed. Yet Intelligent Design theory has recently emerged to challenge neo-Darwinian theory.
Both are scientific theories, and the debate is therefore legitimate. Why is the debate being suppressed?
At stake are two very consequential views of existence: Is life purposeful, and intelligently designed? Or is it random and purposeless?
Question #1:
Knowing this - should our government be engaged in official, de facto promotion of the exclusively secular, materialist worldview inherent in neo-Darwinian theory in our nations public schools, universities and research institutions? Why?
Question #2:
There is growing support among scientists that there is evidence of intelligent design operating in nature. Yet these scientists, researchers and educators are being routinely persecuted for their scientific views. Who is behind this persecution? Why is this happening in America? How did this situation develop?
Question #3:
Should the enterprise of science somehow be treated differently from all other forms of human knowledge, and accorded a special privilege that exempts it from robust debate or inquiry, especially when such debate or inquiry may alter viewpoints that raise important questions concerning larger issues that extend beyond the limits of science itself?
Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed presents a point-of-view so powerful, that it literally forces a re-examination of these issues.
We all know that ideas have consequences.
And our country was founded on principles of free and open debate.
The differences between these two worldviews are certainly consequential. So why the suppression of scientific debate?
If in our publicly funded schools, universities and institutions our children continue to be taught only this: that all life on earth is the result of a purposeless, meaningless and undirected process of random mutation and natural selection
What are the consequences over time of teaching this one-sided worldview as if it were fact rather than theory?
Such a change in our governments official policy represents a deeply troubling shift in our cultural identity and a radical departure from the very principles upon which our country was built. America is the first Democracy that was founded on the distinctive worldview that a Creator conferred inalienable rights on human beings, rather than the State, or another institution, such as Big Science.
So how was it decided that the teaching of such a profoundly different worldview should become the official position of the United States of Americas public institutions?
Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed looks to scientists on both sides of the issue
and reveals some truly shocking answers.
In other words, should Science be exempt from scientific process?
I went to the movies and saw it when it came out last year. Beyond the intelligent design/evolution debates, it really brings out the little known secret in the science/medicine disciplines and academia that ANYONE who disagrees with the politically correct group-think is blackballed (i.e. the scientists who question global warming).
Thanks for that synopsis. The 3 definitions represent a shell game evolutionists like to play here at FR. One gent claims evolution is observable and happening daily even though he knows he's referring to definition 1 while others are debating definition 2 or 3.
"In other words, should Science be exempt from scientific process?"
The scientific process ends when "the science is settled" on issues that are not presently observable (see definition 2 and 3 above). No?
When the movie first came out, I remember hearing that Ben Stein spent a lot of his own money to make the movie and to get it into theaters. Many theaters were not interested in showing it, so I made it a point to go see it, even though I rarely go to a theater to see first run movies.
I'm glad the movie is still making the rounds. I heard Dr. Stephen Meyer on a radio program not too long ago, and found him to be quite interesting.
I watched it just now, VERY GOOD!
Consensus is Stagnation of Thought
The 3 definitions represent a shell game evolutionists like to play here at FR. One gent claims evolution is observable and happening daily even though he knows hes referring to definition 1 while others are debating definition 2 or 3.
I usually break it down into two parts (with #2 and #3 together) and call it "micro-evolution and macro-evolution...
And we do see micro-evolution, which is what the "evolutionists" are showing "us" and saying that this is the proof for "macro-evolution"...
The problem is -- they don't have any proof at all, for macro-evolution and simply keep talking about micro-evolution (when "showing" things to us) and go on and on about their grandiose theory of how all life came into being, from nothing and chance (which is macro-evolution)... LOL...
Indeed. It would never occur to me to rip and burn CDs that I rent from Netflix. I've never even heard of a program called DVD Shrink 3.2. Never, I tell you never!!!!!!!!!
:-) ... it's all for a good cause...

A string review by Tiffani
Any credible history of tennis string should include a chapter on Wilson Sensation, one of the oldest and most popular multifilaments ever made. To see if this string has stood the test of time we had Tiffani, our multifilament expert, put it to the test. Here is what she said.
This is right on par power-wise with Wilson's NXT. I got plenty of pop off the stringbed, noticed some good zing on my shots, and particularly enjoyed hitting a flat backhand up the line. This is the kind of string that is just right for my style of play. As a counterpuncher, I'm more apt to feed off my opponent's power, but this gave me a bit of extra firepower, allowing me to go for more winners.
Sensation was pretty spin friendly compared to some other multifilament strings, such as Wilson NXT or Tecnifibre NRG2. It's not a spin machine for me, but then, I'm not a spin machine. I tend to hit fairly flat, but when I needed to throw in a topspin lob or some slice there was more grab on the ball than I get from some other multifilaments, so I found some good success.
I found this to be a pretty soft, comfortable string. It's not quite as soft as NRG2, but I still found it very comfortable at all times, even on off-center hits. Right off the stringing machine it felt firmer than NXT, but it loosened up quite quickly and the comfort level improved after the first hit. At 55 lbs the string felt a bit more like a synthetic gut, but it settled into the arm-friendly, multifilament feel after that first hour.
Initially I felt the control was very good for a multifilament, but I did notice the control beginning to slip a little bit as the string began to drop in tension. It was not a wild difference, but I started to hit a few more shots long and a few more wide, so I needed to be a little more conservative with my shot selection as time went on.
Compared to other strings
This is very similar to NXT in playability, comfort and durability. Sensation may be slightly more comfortable, as the tension drop makes it feel livelier and softer after a short period. Sensation is a better value, but NXT comes out slightly ahead when it comes to durability. I'm also reminded of the old the Babolat Attraction string when I play with Sensation.
What do you like most about it?
For the price, this is great arm-friendly string that offers good power and spin. I found a lot of the benefits of pricier multifilaments in a more budget-friendly package.

About the Author: Amber Forbes serves as a Public Affairs Assistant in the Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs.
Today marks the beginning of the inaugural Caribbean-U.S. Security Cooperation Dialogue in Washington, DC. Leaders from all members of CARICOM, the Dominican Republic, and non-Caribbean partner nation observers are participating in the event, which serves as a forum for the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative (CBSI).
CBSI is the result of President Obama's commitment at the Summit of the Americas in Trinidad and Tobago last year to work more closely with the hemisphere on issues of security and justice reform. CBSI compliments the Central America Regional Security and Merida Initiatives. Key goals for this partnership include substantially reducing illicit trafficking, increasing citizen safety, and promoting social justice. Once put into action, the CBSI will be an ongoing collaboration between the United States and Caribbean governments to address security and drug related concerns in the region, as well as make the region safer and more secure for all.

Brief SummaryRead full entry
Brief Summary
Entamoeba polecki (along with Endolimax nana, Ent. coli, Ent. hartmanni, and Iodamoeba buetschlii) are generally considered nonpathogenic and reside in the large intestine of a human host. Both cysts and trophozoites of these species are passed in stool and considered diagnostic. Cysts are typically found in formed stool, whereas trophozoites (the active stage) are typically found in diarrheal stool. Colonization of the nonpathogenic amebae occurs after ingestion of mature cysts in fecally-contaminated food, water, or fomites (i.e., inanimate objects or substances capable of transferring pathogens). Excystation (release of the trophozoite from the cyst) occurs in the small intestine and the trophozoites migrate to the large intestine. The trophozoites multiply by binary fission and both trophozites and cysts are passed in the feces. Because of the protection conferred by their cell walls, the cysts can survive days to weeks in the external environment and are responsible for transmission. Trophozoites passed in the stool are rapidly destroyed once outside the body and if ingested would not survive the gastric environment. Entamoeba polecki has a worldwide distribution.

The Personal Plant ShopperCertificate of Excellence 2015
It is the planting which really makes a garden. It takes years of experience to get it right. Which plants are suitable for a specific style? What colours complement each other? How will different plants grow together? Which plants grow well in different soils and locations? Which plants are best for a sunny position or deep shade? Which plants will give you all-year-round colour? The list is endless. If you want the WOW factor in your garden but you don't have the knowledge or the time to spend on choosing the right plants, then The Personal Plant Shopper can work with you to create the garden of your dreams. Our service starts with a Garden Consultation with Bob Mattei. Bob has 30 years' experience of planting gardens of all styles and sizes, from small town courtyards to large country estates. During your appointment, Bob will discuss your preferred style with you and review your existing planting to ensure that any healthy, suitable specimens are incorporated. He will also assess the garden conditions, such as the soil, prevailing wind, shade, garden aspect, etc. The fee for this appointment is fully refundable against your first order of plants (minimum spend applies). After the Garden Consultation, we will provide you with a Garden Report which will include our proposals for your garden as well as a quotation for the plant supply, machinery, materials and installation work. At this stage, we provide a plant budget. Planting plans and lists can be hard to visualise and costly. We find it works best to choose the plants which are looking good at the time we do your project. We visit our network of specialist nurseries on a regular basis to hand-select plants for our clients. As we work with such a large number of nurseries and UK growers, we can offer an unrivalled selection of plants and trees with new varieties coming out every year. This vast choice means that every garden we plant is different and innovative. You will get the highest quality and freshest plants, chosen specifically for your garden.

Oni Arare Tetsubin with fukuro tsuru by Kunzan
Holds 1.8 liters, 60.8 ounces. This is where all my tea begins, HOT WATER, I have upgraded from a smaller tetsubin to this one and I am ever so glad I did. This kettle really is a piece of art, I love the sound it makes when it is heating on the burner, and yes you can really taste a difference in the water. Does it make tea taste better? Well it certainly brings out some more character and adds and great emphasis to the finish. plus the water stays hot for a LONG time.
great attention to detail, this is true craftsmanship!
Here you cans see the mushi kui or "bug bite marks" this is a special feature for kettles with hollow handles.
and of course it has picked up the initial rust, it is too early for scale to have developed.

Topical NSAIDs provide effective relief of acute musculoskeletal pain compared to placebo, with no increase in risk of adverse effects

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used for acute and chronic inflammatory painful conditions. NSAIDs produce analgesia by inhibition of the enzyme mediating production of prostaglandins and thromboxane.1 Systemic administration of NSAIDs produces relatively high blood concentrations that can lead to serious adverse events including gastrointestinal bleeding, renal failure and precipitation of congestive heart failure and other cardiovascular events.2 3 Topical application may reduce these risks by avoiding circulation to all parts of the body that accompany oral, rectal and intravenous administration. Topical formulations have limited tissue penetration with minimal uptake into the systemic circulation. This route is indicated for superficial and well-defined areas with intact skin and is not appropriate for deeper structures (eg, spine or organs). Unlike compounded creams, gels and sprays, topical formulations are engineered with prodrug esters or as microemulsions in order to penetrate the skin.

Neurosis -- San Francisco, CA -- December 29th, 2013
My final show of the new year was an awesome one! My friend Alex and I got the Regency Ballroom about 20 minutes before doors opened. The line was super short, so I knew getting some rail was guaranteed. Onioner came by and we chatted for a bit before doors opened and he went to get in line. I got into the venue and got some rail spot so my friend could go get some
much needed
ear protection. Once he got back, I went to go use the restroom and upon returning, some dude called my attention. Turns out he's seen me at a couple of indie shows in San Jose, and I started chatting with him and his pals. All cool dudes from the South Bay, hope I can run into them again. After that Onioner came over and we chatted for a bit before I decided to go reclaim my spot on the rail. Not too soon after, the lights went dim and the show started.
The first band of the night was The Body. The Body are a two man sludge group , but live they had two drummers. Both had modest drum sets, and one had a sampler for samples at the beginning of songs. The guitarist had a HUGE rig. Some of the amps were connected to this briefcase that I'm assuming just had a lot of electronics. The set was really loud, and I could barely discern the guitars with all the pure noise they were producing with (I'm assuming) the electronics in the brief case. The drummers were laying down the jams though, which definitely helped all the sound to be perceived as songs. During one song, there was this one loop they had going on that was literally shaking the whole venue. Shit was cash. Overall, The Body's set was enjoyable, but since I couldn't really hear the guitar, I'm not exactly sure what I'd really be missing if I don't check 'em out.
Up next was the almighty Yob. It was quite obvious that a lot of dudes were coming to show mainly to see these guys, and they put on a hell of set. Mike sounded absolutely incredible the whole night. It was cool to see Travis on the kit this time around, as he didn't tour with the band when I saw them last in 2011. The crowd was loving the set, with roaring ovations after each song, and it was clear that the band was completely appreciative of the crowd reaction. Not much else I can really say. Yob put on a stellar set that was heavier than blue whale.
Quantum Mystic
Grasping Air
Next up was Santa Cruz hardcore punk legends, Bl'ast. I don't know why these guys were on the line-up, and I honestly didn't care for their set. The music was just typical old-school hardcore punk, and the crowd got all rowdy. And it appeared that a decent amount of dudes came specifically to see these dudes. It was kind of a mood kill after witnessing the heavy stoner doom that was Yob. Then some asshole tried to crowd surf and he was just grabbing people's necks and pulled on this one dude's hood, so the poor dude's neck was getting choked. I was not down. And they pushed set times back.
Next up was the band of the evening, Neurosis. Since set times got pushed back and apparently they had a curfew that night (what the fuck) Neurosis had to unfortunately cut their set short. But even with a shortened set, Neurosis was absolutely killer. The band was incredibly heavy and their material is just soul crushing to witness live. They played a good mix of material from their discography, but focused on material from A Sun That Never Sets and Honor Found In Decay. Highlights for me were Locust Star, From The Hill, and the end of My Heart For Deliverance. I especially lost my shit for the ending jam of My Heart For Deliverance. I had my eyes shut throughout most of the performance, and I was just zoning pretty hard with the music, so there isn't too much else I can really say. Neurosis' set was heavy as all hell and hypnotic too. Only complaint was some people moshed during the heavy parts, but other than that the performance was just great.
Locust Star
We All Rage In Gold
From The Hill
The Tide
Water Is Not Enough
My Heart For Deliverance
The Doorway
Stones From The Sky
After the show, Alex, Onioner and I went to Tommy's Joint and got some delicious post show grub. It was chill.

Garrett Jr. finishes second at Armory Collegiate Invitational with school-record performance
NEW YORK CITY — Senior All-American Richard Garrett Jr. placed second in the shot put championship division with a school-record performance to lead the UTSA men's track & field team at this weekend's Armory Collegiate Invitational.
Garrett Jr. shattered his two-year-old program mark with a measurement of 62-11 ¾ (19.18m) on Friday night. That added more than one foot and three inches to his previous personal best established at the 2011 Southland Conference Championships and he now stands eighth on the national leaderboard. Texas' Hayden Baillio won the 49-man event with a put of 63-7 ¾ (19.40m).
Junior Mike Medrano also earned a silver medal, his coming in the mile. The Mission native clocked a PR of 4:11.89 (No. 3 on UTSA's all-time performers list) and trailed only Villanova's Dusty Solis (4:07.03) in the 63-man field. His mark was nearly a three-second improvement from his previous career best and it currently leads the Western Athletic Conference (WAC) standings.
The Roadrunners also recorded a pair of podium finishes in the relays.
The distance medley quartet of juniors Nathan Collier, Johnathan Jones, Brady Hand and Medrano placed second in a season-best 10:02.82 (third-best time in program annals) on Friday night. Meanwhile, the 1,600m foursome of freshman Jumarcus Shelvin, sophomore Christopher Hall, senior Darryl Wyrick and junior Joshua Smith went on to post a third-place effort on Saturday in 3:17.38.
Senior Taylor Reed matched his UTSA record in pole vault with a clearance of 17-0 ¾ (5.20m). That was good for 10th place in the championship flight.
The Roadrunners will take the next two weeks off before competing at the WAC Championships from Feb. 21-23 in Albuquerque, N.M.

The 18U division included only two teams. Sisters McKenna and Madison Witt of Glendale defeated Reagan Chalmers (Fountain Hills, Ariz.) and Mckenna Schultz (Fountain Hills, Ariz.), 21-8, 21-6. The Witts will play for the University of Arizona sand volleyball program in the fall.
Ten teams competed in the 12U division, which was won by Tatum Shuckhart (Phoenix, Ariz.) and Sophie Park (Chandler, Ariz.). Jenna Bolena (Phoenix, Ariz.) and Mary Shroll (Tempe, Ariz.) placed second and Justice Craig (Tempe, Ariz.) and Makenna Fullford (Mesa, Ariz.) finished third.

If ambient pollution data are unavailable, researchers often rely upon distance from a point source of pollution as a proxy for ambient environmental quality. However, damages from all types of point-source disamenities may exhibit directional heterogeneity. We generalize conventional distance models to allow for directional effects and show that commonly used linear and quadratic spatial trend variables capture directional heterogeneity in a manner that has not previously been recognized. Appropriate spatial models can also inform the social planner's problem of optimal allocation of source reduction across polluters. When independently calibrated tranport functions are not available, individual properties can be viewed as ambient receptor sites. Hedonic models can yield estimates of the product of marginal social damages from ambient concentrations and the change in ambient concentration per unit of emissions from each source. Optimal emissions depend upon the spatial distribution of all affected properties relative to each source, the parameters of the hedonic model, and marginal abatement costs. 226658 bytes application/pdf en_US University of Oregon, Dept. of Economics University of Oregon Economics Department Working Papers;2003-17 Environmental management Urban economics Rural economics Regional economics Household analysis Property value models Directional Heterogeneity in Distance Profiles in Hedonic Property Value Models Working Paper

orchestral number pieces by john cagePosted by David Toub in CD Review, David Toub, OgreOgress, tags: Cage, Number Pieces
Chance Philharmonic
Tamami Tono, sho
Glenn Freeman, conch shells
OgreOgress Productions
This represents the first recording of 108, 109 and 110, which are additional "number pieces" by Cage. The numbers represent the number of performers in each piece, often with superscripts to indicate the number of that particular number piece (eg, one8 is the eighth piece for solo performer). The number pieces are a series (over 50 in all) of late Cage works that often involve long tones in various combinations. The number pieces are an acquired taste, like most Cage; you either like many of them or you don't. Personally, I find many of Cage's number pieces to be absolutely beautiful and among the best music in his vast oeuvre. Four, which was written for string quartet, is Cage at his best. And I think that the three pieces on this album also are examples of Cage at the top of his game.
108 was written in 1991 and represents the largest forces involved in a number piece. It represents the ground material for all three works on this 131-minute 96kHz|24bit Audio DVD, since 109 is 108 combined with One8, while 110 is 108 combined with Two3. Also interestingly, the total duration of 108 (and thus, all three works on the album) is 43:30. Maybe that has something to do with the famous/infamous work 4'33". Or not. That's the beauty of Cage; he was always unpredictable, and everything he did had many potential meanings.
Now consider another interesting facet to this album; you get to hear the same piece (108) thrice, but it will always sound somewhat different, somewhat familiar, since it is played by itself and then combined with two other pieces. To me, that represents a similar concept to Nancarrow's Study #48, in which the third movement consists of the first two played together, or Lubomyr Melnyk's The Lund-St. Petri Symphony where two pieces are also played simultaneously. I also think it was put best by Glenn Freeman, who wrote me that "what john cage was going for in the number pieces … endless variation, but always recognizable … for instance, if one watches a busy chicago street every day during rush hour we see the same thing, but, it is also always different."
So now to the music. There are some amazing parts in all three pieces, particularly (at least for me), 109. The use of the sho and conch shells is interesting, but it is the chordal structures and multiple chance permutations of the combinations of various notes that really work for me. The performances are first rate, and this is an essential album for anyone interested in Cage, his number pieces, and/or wants to experience some of the most important music of the last two decades.

St. Michael's Stuns No. 6 Merrimack, 8-6
from press release
COLCHESTER, Vt. – The Merrimack men's lacrosse team was upset Wednesday afternoon, suffering its first conference loss at the hands of Saint Michael's College 8-6.
Merrimack fell behind early, trailing 3-1 late in the first and 5-3 at halftime, despite two first-half goals from Terence Barclay (Babylon, NY) and one from Corey Lunney (Little Silver, NJ).
The Purple knights opened the second half with three goals, taking an 8-3 lead after Kevin Hunt notched his sixth of the year with 3:02 left in the third quarter.
Merrimack didn't quit as Brad McAdam (Neshanic Station, NJ) scored before the end of the third, and Mike Perdie (Wading River, NY) notched his first collegiate goal in the fourth, while David Robinson (Lexington, MA) also scored, but it was not enough as Chris Demairo made two late saves for Saint Michael's.
Merrimack was outshot 38-21 in the loss, as Connor Reagan (East Lyme, CT) made nine saves. The Warriors killed six of seven man-down opportunities, while going 3-for-6 on the man-advantage.
Perdie led Merrimack with three assists and four points, while Barclay, Lunney, McAdam, and Robinson added a goal each.
Merrimack (5-2, 2-1 NE-10) will look to bounce back against Pace University Saturday at 3 p.m. at Warrior Field.

CSU-Pueblo cuts won't be as deep as feared
Colorado State University-Pueblo President Lesley Di Mare has announced that the school will cut fewer positions than what was originally estimated.
CSU-Pueblo officials said this morning that they will be cutting 22 positions rather than 50, which was originally projected.
Officials said 19 jobs that are currently vacant will remain vacant.
In an email to staff and faculty, Di Mare thanked them for helping to devise a plan to balance the budget.
"I would like to recognize the time and effort that so many individuals have expended both to share their passion for this university and to assist me in devising a plan to balance our budget deficit that will affect fewer individuals than we originally projected," Di Mare said.
The financial picture of the institution shows that $3.3 million needs to be cut from the budget.
CSU system Chancellor Michael Martin and Di Mare will meet with students, faculty and staff today at 3 p.m. to explain the cuts and the budget challenges.
The open forum is scheduled to be held in the Occhiato University Center Ballroom.

Very nice pies Norma! I was in Lancaster for 10 years and enjoyed Roots Market. I got to get back and have some of your pizza! Since you are the "godmother" of NY sourdough style oven deck pizza, your evaluation finding no perceptable difference between sourdough and non sourdough Lehman cold ferment is newsworthy! I have not gotten into sourdough for my NY pie, but often consider it. Others such as Chau have been cautious about advising me to jump into sourdoughs for my NY pie, and Scott 123 is not a big fan either. I now am even more hesitant. Thanks for your work generous sharing of your work! Mark
Mark, The preferment Lehmann dough was much easier to handle because the preferment (not sourdough, but made with IDY) was made on a Friday and left to cold ferment until Monday before I made the final
Thanks for the information Norma! I am sorry, I equated preferment with sourdough on the forum for the past year. I have some reading to do! It is beautiful in Lancaster County this time of year. Hope to get down there soon! Mark
Norma,I am 100% with Peter on his observation that average Joe is not going to pick up on your dough change.I have seen a lot of people eat a lot of pizza over many years of selling and just watching and I believe ya gotta throw 'em a pretty good curve before they notice a change.Just out of curiosity, Norma, have you ever tried garlic powder in your Lehmannn's doughs at Market?I think MM pretzels would be a great "twist" on the traditional pretzel theme and just might be a hit....advertise them as "Sweet Pretzels" maybe, or something like that...?Sorry to hear the MM pizzas aren't doing as well as they should.....maybe just needs a bit more time to catch on. Fresh, bright colored "veggies" are big right now ,as I'm sure you know. We see them everywhere, on everything. An MM dough with a bright white cheese as the backdrop for broccoli,and tri-colored peppers sitting out front in your display case,although "gourmet" looking would certainly draw me into it.....and I"m a rural kind of guy ! But I'm sure you've already been trying these things,....you're a clever lady. Keep up the good work, Norma. Changing that dough would lighten your load though, eh ? Good luck.Bob
Do you use an IR gun for your deck temps? I got one last month. I have the electric version of your gas BakersPride counter top and my bottom deck would read 500 deg. and my top deck would be 590deg. Sometimes my pie bottoms will get too brown too, good idea on putting screens on before it goes too brown, going to try that with a couple of screens i have but never used, i used to just put a pizza pan under if getting too brown. No need to put oil on the screen after it cooked....Plus my thermostat is about 150 deg off.
Thanks Norma, for saying the pizza looks good and tasty, I think it was! The browning and ovenspring were a big part of that, which was helped along by a hot stone (650F).

Flute World
America's #1 flute specialty house since 1983.
Ranch on DanzonComposer: LeechPublisher: Alry PublicationsInstrumentation: Flute and BassoonThis was originally written for a performance of a jazz quartet. The duet version came naturally from the original two-part texture, and uses an ostinato background with a floating melody line. The "somewhat" South American rhythmic style makes the short work exciting, and the odd length of the measures creates motion and suspension.

MrPibbs, I also explored the NG option for the 2stone Inferno until I discovered my new place did not have the NG hookup I thought it would. That's interesting information about NG versus LP. If you want NP pizza, it seems that the LP version is the way to go. I also really appreciate being able to slide the burner on the fly at any time.Regarding your question about propane per 4 pizza event, I have a 5 gallon tank that costs $3.69/gallon to fill up. On average, for a 4 pizza bake, I'm achieving at least 4 and sometimes 5 nights per tank.The herbed focaccia was made using a 48h 65F ferment, 2% Ischia, 3% salt, 62.5%HR Caputo 00 pizza dough. To shape the focaccia, I gently pulled a ball of dough apart making sure to not compress the dough. I then brushed the entire top with olive oil, added fresh rosemary and sage, a little sea salt, then microplaned parmesano reggiano to finish and lock the herbs in. Baked at 850F for 90-100 seconds.
Everlast, I have read and reviewed this thread, and your PM to me at least a dozen times now, as well as going back and forth to Willard's 2Stone website, and just finished speaking with him again! LOL!He gave me some very useful information since I converted my Weber Genesis from LP to NG from the house because I was going through LP propane tanks too fast. With the three Weber jets fully open the entire time, and allowing 30-40 mins for full top stone heating, I only was getting 2-3 pizza making events (3-4 pizzas each event) per bottle. I actually get hotter temps with the Weber NG setup than I did with LP in my 2Stone. I have run it this winter in 10°F and got 740°F on bottom stone and 715°F on top stone...BUT I have to let it heat up for 35-40 mins. So when looking at the Inferno, I was leaning towards continuing to use my NG quick connect setup that comes with a Weber NG grill.HOWEVER, Willard just told me that in addition to not being able to slide the flame burner (because you cannot use the flexible metal hose and still be in code with NG), it is also plumbed (probably smaller diameter pipe and orifices) so that the top temp only reaches about 700°F with the NG Inferno. NG works under a much lower pressure, and to get higher delivered volumes, you have to plumb with larger pipe and burner orifices.So now it is looking like for our purposes (especially if you want to go into Neo ranges), the LP model might be a better choice. Willard thought that because of the focussed flame directly on the stone setup that an LP bottle lasts much longer than I was getting with the 2Stone. I looked up that the typical 20 lb LP bottle holds about 4.1 US Gallons of propane, and I think you said earlier that you use just under a gallon for a 3-4 pizza event? Walmart charges $18 for an exchanged tank which is about $4.40/gallon. Can you comment on that aspect--in terms of how many "events" you get out of a bottle? It's such a nuisance to run out of a tank when you are in the middle of cooking something.One last thing, can you share how you made that luscious looking herbed focaccia ? I have never seen or eaten anything that looks like that.
