EU Parliament to Seek 'Quality' CO2 Decision Without Delays
The European Parliament is seeking a well-considered decision on a proposed change to the European Union's carbon law and will vote without delays, the chairman of the assembly's environment committee said.
Matthias Groote, who earlier this month was appointed to steer through Parliament the draft amendment that would enable the EU to curb an excess of carbon permits, said no decision has been taken yet about the exact voting timeline. The strategy to curtail oversupply in the world's biggest cap-and-trade system was proposed by the European Commission in July.
"The votes will take place as soon as possible," Groote, a German Socialist member of the parliament, said in an interview in Brussels today. "It's a very important issue and timing matters but I also want to have a quality decision."
The change to the EU legislation needs approval by the environment committee and the whole assembly, as well as qualified-majority backing from national governments. At stake are prices in the bloc's emissions-trading system, which fell to a record low in April after a crisis hurt industrial output, boosting the glut of permits to almost a half of the average annual pollution limit in the program.
"There's several factors we need to take into account. I want to hear from political groups, there's a report on the ETS due to be presented by the commission and we need to see what positions the governments have," Groote said.
Law Change
The planned law change is the first element in the plan designed by the commission and aims to reassert the EU regulator's right to decide about the timing of carbon auctions when the bloc moves to bigger sales of permits as of next year.
In the second step the commission wants to present a draft measure to delay sales of some emission allowances at the beginning of the next trading period starting in 2013, an idea known as backloading.
Member states have so far had three meetings this month on the commission's plan. Many nations still don't have an official position on the amendment and the backloading measure, Poland's Environment Minister Marcin Korolec said yesterday, adding that more gatherings will be needed.
Poland, which relies on coal for more than 90 percent of its electricity needs, is objecting to the carbon-permit supply curbs, arguing they amount to manipulating the market. Slovakia is also voicing opposition, according to two EU diplomats with knowledge of the talks. The Czech Republic's Prime Minister Peter Necas said earlier this month his government will probably not support the commission's plan.
Backloading Strategy
The Netherlands has also signaled it's unlikely to back the backloading strategy, though some politicians including Bas Eickhout, a Dutch member of the Green group in the European Parliament, say the country may change its position after a new government is formed following Sept. 12 elections.
France and Belgium both expressed support for the plan to curb carbon oversupply at yesterday's meeting of the Climate Change Committee, which consists of representatives of national governments, said the EU diplomats, who declined to be identified because the talks were private.
EU Climate Commissioner Connie Hedegaard said earlier this year she was aiming for a member states' decision on the backloading measure by the end of this year. The commission has yet to come up with a specific number of permits to be postponed at auctions. Peter Vis, head of Hedegaard's political cabinet, said Sept. 18 the commission is working on an impact assessment into its supply-curbs proposal.

More than a year after first showing us a styling buck and nearly as long since launching it overseas, General Motors is finally showing off the production Chevy Cruze for North America. Set to be shown publicly this week at the LA Auto Show, the Cruze is still a good eight or nine months away from arriving in U.S. showrooms.
When it does finally arrive, the Cruze should be a huge step forward from the Chevy Cobalt, and GM hopes it will be an able competitor to the next-generation Honda Civic and Ford Focus, which are slated to arrive not long afterward. The Cruze is slightly larger than the Cobalt, but will be powered by downsized engines, including a new 1.4-liter turbocharged four cylinder with 138 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque, as well as a 1.8-liter normally-aspirated unit with similar power but less torque. All Cruze models will get six-speed gearboxes – either manual or automatic. The turbo Cruze is expected to score an impressive 40 mpg EPA highway rating.
Based on our brief experience driving a Chevy Volt powertrain mule (Cruze and Volt share common DNA), the Chevrolet Cruze should be more refined than the outgoing Cobalt by an order of magnitude, with a roomier interior and much better-executed passenger cabin. We'll see it in person later this week in L.A., and in the meantime, you can check out the first official images from GM in the gallery below. The official press release follows after the jump.

Flavorade. That goddamned "Kool-aid" reference is an invocation of the Jonestown cult, and Jonestown actually used Flavorade.
But yeah, great article, and I really hope to hear more from Miller on how to incorporate weights and barbells into EFFICIENT climbing training.

I'm failing to connect those barbell exercises to climbing, though
There certainly was a big leap to conclusion on how barbell is the way to get better at climbing...there's very little logic or evidence presented in the blog about barbell training.
As someone who was pretty strong & flexible before climbing, my feeling on general fitness/strength is that these kind of training, much like loosing weight, help to a certain extent. If you don't over do it, it may even speed up climbing recovery. But the real difference lie in finger/hand/forearm strength.

My take from reading the article and also his site is that barbell training is the primary "cross training" used to ensure and maximize a hormonal response from the training load. As climbing primarily works such specific and small muscles, additional stimuli is necessary for the advanced climber to continue to adapt physically.
Interesting stuff.

I'm with Kevin. The takeaway for me was that to elicit a big hormonal response, you need to put big stress on the body, and the way to do that is with heavy multi-joint compound movements (that by their nature train a large volume of your muscle mass).
Now if someone would show me the studies to back it up, showing that it does actually elicit a superior hormonal response, we'd be getting somewhere.
The reason I'm somewhat skeptical is the reading I've done of studies on single set vs. multiple set training. Then again, multiple set isolation exercises is applying stress via concentrated volume, rather than stress by dispersed volume.

Seems like the latest fad to me.
Don't get me wrong, I do general strength training weekly, but don't believe it helps my climbing overly much. It does help manhandling twin sons! Plus it's fun in a masochistic way.
I'm with Shumin, it's all about finger strength (plus technique of course.)

Very good read. Given the scope of topic he's covering I feel like he did a great job of putting the trees in order to try and see the forest.
And I didn't take his comments on barbell work to mean that it's the only way to create a training stimulus in more physiologically well adapted athletes (not saying stronger or "better" climbers here). Just that given what he's learned it's the most effective way to keep the physiological stress on the athlete high enough so that the athlete continues to see improvement.

I think it's an outstanding article. I've addressed some of your questions and tried to layman-ize it a bit in a follow-up post here:
Review of The Map of Athletic Performance
Of course there is a lot of specificity left out. You can't address everything in one article. Rob is trying to set a foundation of thought behind you training, which is sorely lacking in most of us.

what, climbing wise, would fall into the category of "junk miles"?
It seems like climbing at max difficulty all of the time isn't going to do much to help me build much needed endurance for places like the Red River Gorge. Maybe doing 4x4s until I'm so flamed I can't hang on still qualifies as maximum effort?
I'd also like to know some alternatives to these bar workouts for those of us who don't have a weights setup or a gym membership with one.

Forgive my high school level of understanding on this subject, but to give an overview of my understanding: the cells responsible for hypertrophy are the satellite cells which move to the trauma site caused by the training and begin to repair/replace damaged muscle fibers and hormones regulate the satellite cells. So I assume that by doing full body strength workouts you are damaging more muscle fibers in your body, thus the need for a higher level of growth hormones. But I am failing to see how one would expect that the forearms/fingers would receive a greater portion of the growth hormones. I would imagine that the hormones would be distributed across all injured fibers where the bigger fibers would receive a larger portion of the hormones than a smaller fiber. Anyway the main take away for me was if you want to increase endurance you should train strength, not endurance - to an extent, and that goes along the same lines as what Steve Bechtel wrote about in
article in 2009, so I'll be sticking to the hangboard and will not begin pumping iron. Muscle growth information was obtained via
if you care to look.

My question, although not entirely relevant to my own situation, because I have much more "basic" work to do, is; If you're doing power lifting exercises, that is cleans and deadlifts and the like, how do you effectively work hard enough to trigger a hormone release, but not bulk up from the repeated work? In other words, how hard would one have to work to trigger the desired response, and how would that correlate to anabolic (and largely) unwanted growth of large muscle groups?
This, regardless of where the hormones go, assuming that the theory actually does hold water, seems like a much more rudimentary question that needs an answer. Some of the aforementioned missing specificity on the actual incorporation of said training might help illuminate some answers. Does anyone else follow this line, or am I way the hell off?

i think most climbers in general (although there are obviously going to be exceptions to this) won't really gain that much muscle weight by doing these extracurricular workouts. that being said, for me, it comes down to time - in terms of recovery as well as dealing with my work schedule. i simply don't have time to be horsing around with squats and shit like that.

I am no expert on any means and echo the above of getting in touch with Rob. I do however cross train to support a variety of my outdoor pursuits (backpacking, mountain biking, climbing, etc). I am not a super strong climber by any means, but I do know a small amount from my own research and experience doing mainly barbell workouts for the last few years.
In general I have found that food, not the exercises themselves, make one bulky. I am 160 and 5' 11" so I am not huge by any means. However my supporting workout consists of heavy (170 pound) squats, deadlifts, etc. I mainly do a low carb diet, focusing on meats and fresh veggies and tubers if I want carbs vs. processed flour.
My understanding is that engaging large muscle groups (legs mainly, as they are in general so much larger) elicits a hormonal response of growth hormones that strengthen your muscles over all.
I don't have any super good links looking at studies. Just some observations from my own life =) Google around though: there is definitely stuff out there about how large barbell exercises dont have to make one bulky.

It is the volume of work and rep count that will increase bulk not the actual exercise. Look at your high end olympic powerlifters in the lower weight classes. Those guys work out incredibly hard but have to maintain a low weight to stay in their weight class.
A rep count below 5 in the 90% max range usually will increase strength without the corresponding mass increase called myofibrillated hypertrophy. The other kind,sarcoplasmic hypertrophy, will increase the size of the muscle and is usually in the 8-12 rep range.

In regards to putting on weight, just look at the articles found on websites like T-Nation or BodyBuilding...
The amount of work that bodybuilders do to actually gain muscle size is incredible. I don't think that anything Rob Miller is saying in this specific article is going to make you gain an appreciable amount of muscle. It takes a lot of work with your jaw muscle to put on weight, as well as some crazy work in the gym.
In my particular case, I once went from being 145lbs to just under 170 in a few months time. I was eating roughly 5,000+ calories per day. I was eating 3 solid meals, 2 "shakes" and an assortment of snacks every day. I was doing a basic bodybuilding split routine, lifting weights 3 and 4 days a week in a specific manner. The most work of ALL of it was in the kitchen.
I agree with the several other people in this thread that have mentioned the need for some solid evidence backing up the release of hormones that provide a "full body" effect in the positive, and the application of that to a sport specific routine. I would imagine this information would also have to be applied in the same manner that Rob Miller is talking about when it comes to the skill and advancement of the individual. If you take someone who has never lifted weights, they make fast progress. But if someone has been lifting for a while, the response elicited from the stimuli takes longer.
It would be very interesting to see how this release of natural growth hormones is accomplished in the beginner, the intermediate, and the advanced weight lifter.
I really dig the "trajectory" idea, mostly as a way to track progress in a very specific goal. And the map can make it easy to identify what your current trajectories are. For me that idea is more important at this time since I'm barely an intermediate climber.... actually closer to a beginner than anything!

Alright, been way busy, but am starting to get somewhere on answering my question: Do the heavy, full body compound exercises, actually elicit a greater hormonal response?
The answer appears to be yes, but with significant caveats...mainly that the greater response might not make any difference.
Here's one study that points that way (there are several more that indicate a significant increase in hormonal response for the resistance exercise protcols that involve heavy weights over more muscle mass). I have quibbles with the study design (there is sympathetic training responses in the untrained arm when you train only one arm, this will cloud the results in a study design like this) and will continue looking at the research when I get some free time. Unfortunately, I haven't been a grad student in a long time and don't have ready access to either hard copies or full text of most of these journals, so I'm relying on abstracts.
This is from the Journal of Applied Physiology, 69:1442-1450:
Elevations in ostensibly anabolic hormones with resistance exercise enhance neither training-induced muscle hypertrophy nor strength of the elbow flexors.
Daniel W. D. West1, Nicholas A. Burd1, Jason E. Tang1, Daniel R. Moore1, Aaron W. Staples1, Andrew M. Holwerda1, Steven K. Baker2, and Stuart M. Phillips1
The aim of our study was to determine whether resistance exercise-induced elevations in endogenous hormones enhance muscle strength and hypertrophy with training
. Twelve healthy young men (21.8 ± 1.2 yr, body mass index = 23.1 ± 0.6 kg/m2) trained their elbow flexors independently for 15 wk on separate days and under different hormonal milieu. In one training condition, participants performed isolated arm curl exercise designed to maintain basal hormone concentrations (low hormone, LH); in the other training condition, participants performed identical arm exercise to the LH condition followed immediately by a high volume of leg resistance exercise to elicit a large increase in endogenous hormones (high hormone, HH).
There was no elevation in serum growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1), or testosterone after the LH protocol but significant (P < 0.001) elevations in these hormones immediately and 15 and 30 min after the HH protocol.
The hormone responses elicited by each respective exercise protocol late in the training period were similar to the response elicited early in the training period, indicating that a divergent postexercise hormone response was maintained over the training period. Muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) increased by 12% in LH and 10% in HH (P < 0.001) with no difference between conditions (condition × training interaction, P = 0.25). Similarly, type I (P < 0.01) and type II (P < 0.001) muscle fiber CSA increased with training with no effect of hormone elevation in the HH condition.
Strength increased in both arms, but the increase was not different between the LH and HH conditions. We conclude that exposure of loaded muscle to acute exercise-induced elevations in endogenous anabolic hormones enhances neither muscle hypertrophy nor strength with resistance training in young men.

Interesting, and not entirely what I'de expect.
But I wonder if there would be a difference in hormonal response in trained vs untrained individuals, which is kinda the idea that I got out of the Miller article - that cross training is used as method to continue to produce results after the individual is well trained and gains are much harder to come by.
As opposed to untrained individuals that are are probably going to respond quickly to new stimulus, regardless of hormone levels.
Thanks for posting what you found Will.

Continuing...this one also shows that training the larger mass (jump squats vs. bench press) elicits greater hormonal response (2x in this case). More interestingly, there were also correlations with diet.
J. Appl. Physiol. 82(1): 49¨C54, 1997.
Testosterone and cortisol in relationship to dietary nutrients and resistance exercise
Jeff S. Volek, William J. Kraemer, Jill A. Bush, Thomas Incledon, and Mark Boetes
Manipulation of resistance exercise variables (i.e., intensity, volume, and rest periods) affects the endocrine response to exercise; however, the influence of dietary nutrients on basal and exercise-induced concentrations of hormones is less understood. The present study examined the relationship between dietary nutrients and resting and exercise-induced blood concentrations of testosterone (T) and cortisol (C). Twelve men performed a bench press exercise protocol (5 sets to failure using a 10-repetitions maximum load) and a jump squat protocol (5 sets of 10 repetitions using 30% of each subject¡¯s 1-repetition maximum squat) with 2 min of rest between all sets. A blood sample was obtained at preexercise and 5 min postexercise for determination of serum T and C. Subjects also completed detailed dietary food records for a total of 17 days.
There was a significant (P ¡Ü 0.05) increase in postexercise T compared with preexercise values for both the bench press (7.4%) and jump squat (15.1%) protocols
; however, C was not significantly different from preexercise concentrations.
Significant correlations were observed between preexercise T and percent energy protein (r = −0.71), percent energy fat (r = 0.72), saturated fatty acids (g ⋅ 1,000 kcal−1 ⋅ day−1;r = 0.77), monounsaturated fatty acids (g ⋅ 1,000 kcal−1 ⋅ day−1;r = 0.79), the polyunsaturated fat-to-saturated fat ratio (r = −0.63), and the protein-to-carbohydrate ratio (r = −0.59). There were no significant correlations observed between any nutritional variables and preexercise C or the absolute increase in T and C after exercise
. These data confirm that high-intensity resistance exercise results in elevated postexercise T concentrations. A more impressive finding was that dietary nutrients may be capable of modulating resting concentrations of T.
Would be interesting to see some studies that test for correlation with micronutrient/vits/minerals. Zinc, specifically. I'm sure they're out there.

Will - I think Rob Miller was pointing more towards the "big lifts" i.e. the back squat, the deadlift, the press etc to generate as close to 100% of your genetic potential for atheletic ability.
He couples the idea of a high level of skill training, ramping up intensity and lowering volume. And cross training in an efficient manner to quickly activate the maximum amount of muscle motor units while doing whatever skill you are trying to accomplish.
He alludes to a hormonal response that would increase strength, and therfore increase "performance" across the board. Performance being different for each type of athelete, in Miller's words... their trajectory.

Watching lots of p0rn for the T yeah. Althought it does then drop below normal level if you "consumate the relationship" so to speak. No idea how, or if, it affects IGFs or HGH.
Also supposed to be something of a feedback loop there.

Will - I think Rob Miller was pointing more towards the "big lifts" i.e. the back squat, the deadlift, the press etc...He alludes to a hormonal response that would increase strength
I'm aware of that. Which is why I sought the research to back up the premise that those "big lifts" actually do elcit such a response. And the research shows that while they do elicit a much greater response than just training the smaller muscles we would want to train (finger flexors, etc), that greater response doesn't correlate to improvement in strength or hypertrophy.
It seems that the bottom line is that the training stimulus on the specific muscle in question is the limiting factor, especially for the smaller ones where you aren't going to be building huge new amounts of mass in the best case, rather than a lack of sufficient hormonal activity/response.
EDIT: I should add, I actually do think some of those lifts are very beneficial, but not due to the hormone angle, just due to getting stronger throughout the chain...core and lower back, glutes and hip flexors. Many climbers say they train "core" and all they do is a few high rep ab exercises and do little to nothing for the lower back. Heavy, low rep deadlifts would probably benefit most climbers...provided they don't get injured...which is all too probable since many don't have a weight training background.

Merry Christmas from Doc Severinsen and the Tonight Show Orchestra

Album Review
Like Doc himself, Merry Christmas from Doc Severinsen and the Tonight Show Orchestra is a brassy, stylish, and shamelessly enjoyable album. Severinsen never takes risks — the swaggering arrangements will be familiar to anyone who watched Johnny Carson's Tonight Show, and all the songs are staples — but he's made an entertaining album. He's not alone on this one either — the L.A. Children's Chorus, the Philharmonic Strings, and the Desert Bells help out on individual tracks. When all is said and done, there might not be much unexpected here, but it's all quite fun.

A panel discussion in Krytyka Polityczna and video documentation from Vietnam
The Jarmark Europa open-air market was originally founded by members of the Vietnamese intelligentsia, university graduates and doctoral students who in the early 1990s seized an opportunity to make a fast buck from street trading. It was the best students from North Vietnam who were offered scholarships to the Soviet bloc. The next wave of Vietnamese immigrants came to Poland for economic reasons at the beginning of this century. What will happen to the Warsaw Vietnamese after Jarmark Europa has been closed down? Many of them, discouraged by Poland's harsh immigration laws, are returning home. What does the assimilation of Poland's largest ethnic minority really look like?
Chosen articles and reviews:
Sybille Korte, Katze odel Nudelmaschine, "Berliner Zeitung" 23.11.2007

Finissage of Stadium X
A series of Live Art Projects in the Derelict Communist Stadium
The 10-th Anniversary Stadium in Warsaw was built in 1955 from the rubble of a war-ruined Warsaw. It was to preserve Communism's good name for forty years, by the mid-'80s, the site had stopped being used as a sports venue. It fell into ruin, becoming a post-Communist phantom. In the early 1990s, it was 'revived' by Vietnamese intelligentsia-cum-vendors and Russian traders, pioneers of capitalism who set up camping beds with all sorts of wares on the crown of the Stadium. Jarmark Europa suddenly became the only multicultural site in the city, a storehouse of biographies, equipment, and stories, as well as a major tourist attraction. A place became as an Asian suburb, a primeval forest, a realm of provisionality, controlled chaos and discount shopping, a sports club in demise, a work camp for archaeologists and botanists, the seat of Jehovah's Witnesses, along with many others. Its different logic, its heterogeneity, its longstanding (non)presence in the middle of the post-Communist city, the invisibility of the Vietnamese minority, the debate around the development of a new National Stadium here for the Euro 2012 football cup, and the lack of a critical debate on Poland's post-war architectural legacy — all these factors served as the inspiration for the curatorial project Finissage of Stadium X and later for the publication of a Reader: Stadium X-A Place That Never Was.

michelle needs help with 10 gallon tank!
would like to change from goldfish to neon tetras do i have to clean the tank? i have a 10 gallon tank my filter is a whisper what type of food should i use? i feed my fish gold fish flakes can someone guide me through this i am a beginner would like to up grade my tank thanks.
post #2 of 4 Old 02-07-2012, 05:22 PM
Wouldn't hurt to some extent. Dont overdo it though or your going to have to re cycle your tank. Do a 50% water change, vacuum the surface of the substrate (gravel or sand) dont actually start digging around in the substrate though. Then rinse your filter media in the dirty tank water. Check the water parameters after, but before adding new fish.

thank you how soon do i put the tetras in and what do i feed them,i have goldfish food, can my goldfish stay in the tank as well?
post #4 of 4 Old 02-07-2012, 06:08 PM
Short answer, no. A 10g is not sufficient even for one goldfish, much less more. Depending upon the species, goldfish can get large and they need space and they produce a lot of waste and impact the water quality--all reasons why they need room to be healthy. And I would not mix tropicals with goldfish.
As for feeding neon tetra, I would buy some quality tropical fish foods. Omega One, Hikari, New Life Spectrum are said to be good brands, and each of these make several types of food, and variety is the spice of life for fish as much as for humans.
And, welcome to Tropical Fish Keeping forum.

HOW TO TRAIN YOUR ROBOT - Unexpectedly Great Boxing Short
Check out this incredibly fun short film called How To Train Your Robot, which features a boxing trainer teaching a robot how to fight. I'm sure many of you will compare this to Hugh Jackman's Real Steel, which is fine, because I think this two minute short is better than that whole film. There's a grittier style to it, the visual effects are impressive, and it has an unexpected comedy element.
The film was created by a group of students from an Animation and VFX course organised by Platige Image and CD Projekt RED. I hope you enjoy the short!

Great !
I really enjoy this app! The music is great and relaxing, the timer option is amazing as i sometimes use it to fall asleep or to concentrate on work for periods at a time. Great background music and great relaxation music. All around - a favorite!
Love it when it works, but...
It has started crashing all the time! It was working flawlessly until about a week ago now it works 1 in 10 times. I would give it a perfect score if it was reliable.
Enjoy it!
I really like this app...one suggestion would be to change the color of the timer from red to something easier to see. Thanks!

There are so many kinds of thermometer available and each specializes for different purpose. It is therefore very important that you understand the purpose and uses of each thermometers, so that you purchase the right thermometers for your use and suitability.
What is Thermometer
A thermometer is a device that is primarily used for measuring temperature of a body or any object. There are basically two types of thermometers one is called analog thermometer which consist of a sealed tube with internal markings on it. The other is digital thermometer which displays the temperature on the screen. The temperatures are measured either in Celsius or Fahrenheit. Thermometers are also used in measuring the weather temperature though the markings on weather thermometer are different than clinical thermometer.
Types of Clinical Thermometer
The clinical thermometers are those which are used for measuring body temperature of human or animal. There are different type of clinical thermometers like forehead thermometer, ear thermometer, oral and rectal thermometers.
Forehead thermometer: A forehead thermometer also called as temporal thermometer used infrared waves to measure temperature of a person. Using forehead thermometer is much easier and quicker. You just need to scan this device over the temple of the person whose temperature you want to measure. This type of thermometer is very useful for measuring child"s temperature, as taking young babies temperature is not easy. You can check best forehead thermometer of babies that measure temperature accurately and quickly in few seconds. Temporal thermometer then uses infrared light to read the temperature of the skin over an artery located in the temple and displays the temperature reading on the display.
Oven thermometer: Oven thermometer is very useful device that should be available in everyone"s kitchen. As we all know, vegetables and meats that we eat have micro organism that can cause harmful effect on our body. These micro organism do not get killed if the food are cooked at below certain temperature. To accurately measure the temperature of food you need good oven thermometer. This device can be inserted into oven while your food is cooking inside.

Parmesan Crusted Chicken
Total Time
Prep 45 mins
Cook 15 mins
Originally from Cuisine magazine, here is a wonderful way to prepare otherwise boring boneless, skinless chicken breasts. The crust on this chicken is delicious and the sage-butter sauce is divine! Excellent served with roasted new potatoes. Don't be intimidated by the number of ingredients or steps - it truly is simple to prepare. Prep time includes "resting" time for the crust.
Ingredients Nutrition
For the chicken
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
- 2 egg whites
- 9.85 ml cornstarch
- 1 lemon, juice of (half for chicken, half in sauce)
- 236.59 ml coarse dry breadcrumbs (preferably homemade using rustic-type bread)
- 14.79 ml chopped fresh parsley
- 4.92 ml kosher salt
- 1.23 ml ground pepper
- 118.29 ml parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 lemon, zest of, minced
- 44.37 ml olive oil
For the sauce
- 44.37 ml shallots, minced
- 118.29 ml dry white wine
- 118.29 ml heavy cream
- 118.29 ml low sodium chicken broth (or regular)
- 73.94 ml cold unsalted butter, cubed (divided use)
- 4.92-9.85 ml fresh sage, minced
- salt
- white pepper
- cayenne
- For the chicken: Lightly pound chicken breasts to an even 1/2 inch thickness.
- Blend egg whites, cornstarch, and half lemon juice with a fork in a wide, shallow dish.
- Set aside.
- Combine bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, parsley, salt, pepper, and zest in a second wide, shallow bowl.
- Individually dip chicken brests first in egg mixture, then in crumbs.
- Pat crumbs on both sides of chicken- it's ok if some crumbs fall off.
- Set crusted breasts on a wire rack for 20 to 30 minutes to set crust.
- After 20 to 30 minutes, saute chicken in oil in a large, nonstick, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
- Carefully turn with a spatula and transfer skillet to a 450 degree oven to finish cooking.
- Roast chicken until done, about 8 more minutes.
- While chicken is roasting, prepare sauce.
- For the sauce: Saute shallot in 1 T butter in a small saucepan over medium heat just until soft, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add wine, cream, broth, and remaining lemon juice.
- Simmer until reduced by half, 8-10 minutes.
- Whisk in remaining butter, one tablespoon at a time, stirring constantly.
- Add sage and seasonings.
- Place roasted chicken on a plate and top with sauce.

This chicken was excellent! I added more cayenne to make it a bit hotter. Very good!
I only made the chicken without the sauce this time, but I still think this is a 5 star recipe. Very tender and tasty. I made 8 chicken breast halves, so doubled the recipe for the crust. This wouldn't have been necessary -- I ended up throwing away a lot of the egg mixture and the crumb mixture.
I have made this chicken without the sauce before and it is OUTSTANDING! A beautiful lemon flavour and a crispy coating without a lot of fat! Today, I decided to add the sauce. I couldn't quite justify all the fat, so I used half-and-half instead of cream and didn't add the extra butter. I reduced by simmering and then thickened with cornstarch. It was an extra layer of flavour which added to the already wonderful chicken. For a really special occasion, I might make the sauce as posted, and it would be wonderful, I'm sure. However, the lower-fat version was very delicious. Thank you, Miss Gracie, for a chicken recipe that I will use again and again!

Last week I decided to finally ditch Windows in favour of Linux. I've had enough of Windows 10 and Microsoft, and have for a while, but I've put up with it due to gaming. I found out a few weeks ago that half my steam library has support for Linux and since then two more games have been added. The performance for games isn't as good as Windows for the most part, but I can still hit at least 60fps in almost every game. However, with Vulkan on the horizon, performance on newer games should rival that of Windows, and probably exceed due to having less overhead. Not only that, but Linux doesn't spy on you like Windows does, doesn't force updates, doesn't install never versions without consent and doesn't reboot to install updates while you're in the middle of using it. Oh, and it's free. If anyone was ever considering switching I highly recommend it. I picked Mint 17.3 as my distro after trying a few out. It's kind of a lighter version of Ubuntu.

Slowly the public is coming to realize that health care institutions are not always safe places. Since the Institute of Medicine published its landmark study on unsafe medical care more than a decade ago, a grassroots patient safety movement has blossomed and media interest along with it. This is the fourth in a series of posts that will examine what the media are doing to report on patient safety in their communities. The series is archived here.
By now we're accustomed to nursing homes delivering bad care, and the ensuing news stories that detail what that has meant for patients. But we're not used to hearing that nursing homes falsify patient records. So two stories published this week written by Sacramento Bee reporter Marjie Lundstrom deserve a shout-out for revealing yet another dark chapter in the sorry saga of America's nursing homes. As the paper described its series: "It is the untold story of nursing home care: falsification of patient records." This wasn't simply another piece examining government data about nursing home quality—in reality, data that may not be that great. This story was built on Lundstrom's review of nearly 150 cases of alleged chart falsification in California. "We see (this) with regularity," said the chief of prosecutions for the state attorney general's Bureau of Elder Abuse.
Lundstrom reported that nursing homes fear costly lawsuits, which causes them to "re-create medical records to hide neglectful care." She noted such practices as covering up bad outcomes, fill-in-the-blank charting, indicating that medicines were given when they weren't, and falsifying consent forms to sedate patients. In one case, a seventy-seven-year-old woman died after suffering a pulmonary embolism related to fecal impaction "so severe her rectum had dilated to ten centimeters, or about four inches." The woman's chart at the nursing home indicated that she had had bowel movements in the days before her death, which professionals said would have been "extremely unlikely given the severity of her condition." The Bee reported the ugly detalis of what happened to this woman in a second-day story.
Another case showed readers the journey of a ninety-two-year old man who went to a facility after a hospital stay for shortness of breath. He died several days later from pressure ulcers on his heels that led to leg amputations and a raging bone infection. Apparently nursing home staff had not repositioned him often enough. Lundstrom combed through court depositions and learned that the nursing home administrator and a representative of the facility's corporate offices had ordered a nurse to alter the medical records to show that the resident had arrived at the facility with "softened heels." But the nurse admitted she had not seen the patient when he was admitted and had "no memory of him ever having softened heels." The nurse said a corporate representative had told her "to falsify the medical records because the current records did not 'look good' and he was worried about a lawsuit."
I wish the paper had told us which of those 150 cases of falsified records involved for-profit nursing homes and not-for-profit facilities. Most of the nation's facilities operate on a for-profit model, and it would have been good to know whether the problem was more prevalent when the bottom line was at stake. The Bee did point out that fraudulent charting is often the result of understaffing: "public documents reveal tales of chaotic shifts on which certified nurse assistants are scrambling to provide care." Since nursing staff is a facility's biggest cost, it's easy to see how fewer nurses makes good business sense, especially when doctoring the records appears so easy.
A few paragraphs on the historical context of nursing home abuse would have helped readers understand why this problem never disappears. Over the last four decades, there have been numerous news stories about horrific deaths in nursing homes and the problems with a regulatory system that never seems to improve. Comments from the industry and regulators are the same ones that I've heard many times before and reported in my own work on nursing homes for Consumer Reports. Lundstrom reported that between 1990 and 1999, the state issued 180 citations against long-term-care facilities for falsifying records; between 2000 and 2011, it issued only twenty-nine citations.
That's consistent with what I found in 2006, when a federal regulator told Consumer Reports that enforcement was easing off largely because shrinking state budgets couldn't handle the increasing legal challenges from the facilities. Lundstrom's kicker also meshed with my own investigation, which showed that fines—called civil monetary penalties in government jargon—are hardly a deterrent to bad care. In March, she wrote, the state imposed a fine for willful material falsification in a case involving a forged consent form to administer a drug and an eighty-six-year-old man who died from severe dehydration. The amount—$350—is the smallest fine for falsifying records the state has levied in the past decade.
There's a larger takeaway from the Bee's story. Falsifying medical records to hide poor care and neglect speaks to what our society values, a legitimate topic for the media to explore in the context of poor nursing home or hospital care for that matter. "The thing that's so insidious about it (falsifying records) is that it's become a part of the culture," said Sacramento attorney Ed Dudensing, a former prosecutor who won a $29 million jury verdict against one of the state's nursing homes. In 1963, President Kennedy, quoting the historian Arnold Toynbee, said in a special message to Congress "a society's quality and durability can best be measured 'by the respect and care given its elderly citizens.'"
The next crop of nursing home stories must inquire into the deeper questions posed by Lundstrom's reporting. Why is the best consumer protection law on the books so poorly enforced? Why must nursing home operators profit from the misery of the nation's oldest citizens? Lundstrom interviewed Patricia McGinnis, who has spent most of her career advocating for nursing home residents through her organization California Advocates for Nursing Home Reform. I, too, have interviewed McGinnis. During one of our conversations, tears came to her eyes as she asked: Why does such maltreatment have to continue?

Augmented Category 6 (CAT6a)–Class Ea was ratified in February 2008. This standard calls for 10-Gigabit Ethernet data transmission over a 4-pair copper cabling system up to 100 meters. CAT6a extends CAT6 electrical specifications from 250 MHz to 500 MHz. It introduces the ANEXT requirement. It also replaces the term Equal Level Far-End Crosstalk (ELFEXT) with Attenuation to Crosstalk Ratio, Far-End (ACRF) to mesh with ISO terminology. CAT6a provides improved insertion loss over CAT6. It is a good choice for noisy environments with lots of EMI. CAT6a is also well-suited for use with PoE+.
CAT6a UTP cable is significantly larger than CAT6 cable. It features larger conductors, usually 22 AWG, and is designed with more space between the pairs to minimize ANEXT. The outside diameter of CAT6a cable averages 0.29–0.35" compared to 0.21–0.24" for CAT6 cable. This reduces number of cables you can fit in a conduit. At a 40% fill ratio, you can run three CAT6a cables in a 3/4" conduit vs. five CAT6 cables.
There are two types of CAT6a cable, UTP and F/UTP.

After seeing tons of reviews about this product online, I have had it on my wish list for a while now, I just thought the price was a little high. Considering I can get NYX or WNW pencils for a lower price. Luckily I went into a dollar tree out of town last week, and found this product. I couldn't believe my eyes. Dollar Tree carried Milani Shadow Eyez :) I picked up Expresso line and Royal puple. Upon swatching them, I fell in love. The pigmentation is amazing, they dry in no time and do not come off without remover...that is definitely my kind of pencil :) hope to pick up more of these soon :)

An area between the park and a subdivision north of Oak Creek Canyon remains under a mandatory evacuation order.
An area between the park and a subdivision north of Oak Creek Canyon remains under a mandatory evacuation order.
Firefighter crews are expecting strong winds tomorrow, but say worst is behind them; they've burn a ring all the way around fire to contain.
Blaze was 21 square miles as of Sunday morning; firefighters building 3 miles of protection lines.
In June 2011 a fire started burning within the Coronado Natl. Forest, eventually spreading to about 29K acres in Huachuca Mountains.
Two 10-member crews coming to Arizona; NM fire officials say they're able to assist because state has had less wildfire occurrences this year so far.
Wildfire in Oak Creek Canyon consumes 7,500 acres, stops short of city so far; containment at 5%, officials say.
Anyone who smells or sees smoke from the fire burning in Oak Creek Canyon should temporarily suspend outdoor activity; Slide Fire is up to 4,800 acres now.
200 people have been evacuated from Oak Creek Canyon, with another 3,000 on standby; hundreds of firefighters at the scene.
Authorities say the so-called Slide Fire could reach up to 2,000 acres by nightfall; as many as 3,200 people may have to leave area.
Several agencies rushed to scene Tuesday to battle wildfire in grassland; it is unclear how it started.
House Speaker Andy Tobin said signed bill will help cities like Prescott following deaths of 19 firefighters in last year's Yarnell Hill Fire.
Bureau of Land Management says these will be enforced on public lands within Kingman, Lake Havasu, Yuma, Ariz. areas; totaling 8,400-square miles.
U.S. Sens. Jeff Flake and Martin Heinrich of N.M. visiting Arizona to discuss efforts; focused on bipartisan efforts to address catastrophic wildfire prevention.
Down from previous estimate of 366 acres; more than 400 people now assigned to the fire including 10 ground crews.
A Type One incident management team will now be coordinating firefighting efforts on the blaze, which has consumed over 350 acres since it sparked on Sunday.
Authorities in southeastern Arizona are putting locals on notice that they night have to leave because of a 365-acre wildfire burning in the area.

NGV fuel
Gazprom Gazomotornoye Toplivo – a sole operator company focused on expanding the use of natural gas as a vehicle fuel
Photo essay
Install Adobe Flash Player
The production and sales of compressed and liquefied natural gas as a vehicle fuel is one of Gazprom's priorities. Gazprom set up Gazprom Gazomotornoye Toplivo, a special-purpose company, in order to ensure the systematic development of the NGV market.
Cost-efficiency and eco-friendliness
Natural gas is the most cost-effective, eco-friendly and safest type of fuel at present. The average price of 1 cubic meter of gas for vehicles in Russia is RUB 13, while the engines of gas-fueled vehicles comply with Euro 5 and Euro 6, Europe's highest emission standards. According to the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations' classification, natural gas belongs to the category of the least dangerous flammable substances.
Two types of natural gas are used as a vehicle fuel: compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG).
The target segments of the NGV market are as follows:
- CNG fuel – passenger and light cargo transport, motor cars and municipal vehicles;
- LNG fuel – line-haul cars, railway and waterborne transport, quarry machinery and agricultural equipment.
Russian NGV fuel market
The consumption of natural gas as a vehicle fuel is steadily increasing in Russia.
There are several factors facilitating the considerable growth of the Russian NGV fuel market, such as:
- immense natural gas resources and a well-developed gas transmission system, which allows for a reliable and long-term NGV fuel supply;
- introduction of energy-efficient fuels used in transportation, including the conversion of passenger transport and municipal vehicles to natural gas in the cities with over 100,000 inhabitants;
- increase of the variety of natural gas-fueled equipment and expansion of the gas filling infrastructure;
- low price of NGV fuel compared to conventional fuels.
Gazprom singled out 10 priority regions for the purposes of NGV infrastructure development in Russia for 2015–2017, among them the Republics of Tatarstan and Bashkortostan, the Krasnodar and Stavropol Territories, and the Leningrad, Moscow, Rostov and Sverdlovsk Regions, as well as the cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg.
The Company signed agreements on wider use of natural gas as a vehicle fuel with 45 constituent entities of the Russian Federation.
As of February 2016, there are more than 270 CNG filling stations in Russia, 213 of them belonging to Gazprom.
Gazprom's CNG station
Gazprom sold 436 million cubic meters of CNG through its gas refueling network over the course of 2015.
CNG sold at Gazprom's CNG filling stations in Russia, million cubic meters
The Company is planning to complete the construction of 35 CNG stations and renovate 4 stations in 21 Russian regions in 2016. Gazprom's CNG station network will include some 500 units by the end of 2020.
Moreover, Gazprom is currently developing projects aimed at installing natural gas compression units at the existing filling stations. The Company also uses mobile NGV refueling stations to deliver gas to areas remote from CNG stations.
Mobile CNG station
There are about 145,000 natural gas-fueled vehicles in today's Russia.
Gazprom is making a significant contribution to increasing the number of natural gas vehicles in the country. The Company is implementing a special program for converting Gazprom-owned vehicles to natural gas. It bought 1,184 gas-fueled vehicles in 2015 and is planning to buy 1,459 more in 2016.
Foreign NGV fuel markets
The wider use of natural gas in road and waterborne vehicles is one of Gazprom's focus areas in the European market as well.
CNG filling station in Germany
With regard to NGV fuel, Gazprom Group is represented in Germany, the Czech Republic and Poland by its subsidiary Gazprom Germania GmbH.
As of 2015, Gazprom operates 28 compressed natural gas filling stations in Germany and owns 12 gas filling stations in the Czech Republic. It also has an LNG filling station for buses in Poland, with another filling station under construction.
In addition, Gazprom is developing the NGV markets in Belarus, Vietnam, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.
