On 5 December 2015, Storm Desmond caused unprecedented flooding in north Lancashire and Cumbria. In Lancaster, the main electricity sub-station was flooded, cutting electricity supply to 61,000 properties. The loss of power quickly affected many other services that we all take for granted including mobile phones, internet and cash machines. The impacts of the loss of power were the subject of a workshop convened by Lancaster University, the Royal Academy of Engineering and the IET. This report is a summary of that workshop and a consideration of what lessons could be learned from the city's experience.

The Academy has conducted a study on the sustainability of liquid biofuels in UK transport. This was undertaken at the request of the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) (now the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy) and the Department for Transport (DfT), which both funded the study.
The study conducted an in-depth review the evidence and underlying methodologies for the quantification of the carbon footprints of biofuels. It also reviewed wider sustainability issues such as food security, rural development and social impacts.
The main conclusion is that biofuels can and should play an increased role in decarbonising UK transport, however a risk-based approach to policy is needed to avoid incentivising biofuels that do not meet the carbon savings required. Stronger accreditation schemes are also needed in biofuels, but also across all land-based supply chains, to safeguard against negative social and economic impacts.

This study, the latest undertaken at the request of the Prime Minister's Council for Science and Technology, considers the future of the energy system of the UK and how it can deliver against the so-called energy 'trilemma' — the need for a system that is secure and affordable as well as low carbon. The main conclusion is that there remain serious risks in the delivery of the optimal energy system for the UK. Government is advised, as a matter of urgency to:

Following on from the 2013 report on the GB electricity capacity margin, the Academy was invited by the Prime Minister's Council for Science and Technology (CST) to undertake research into the economic and social costs and impacts that would result from shortfalls in electricity supply, within specific sectors and across the UK economy as a whole. The report, Counting the cost, assesses the available evidence base on the potential costs of electricity shortfalls. This is important in order to help policymakers understand the cost/benefit trade-off from investing in greater levels of capacity or resilience to disruption.

With wind energy set to play an expanding role in the UK's energy system, the Academy has carried out a study on the implications of large-scale deployment of wind energy on the UK electricity system. The report, published in 2014, concentrated mainly on the engineering implications of wind energy from design, operation and integration into the national grid system. In addition to the engineering issues, costs and carbon emissions are also considered as the UK tries to move towards solving the 'trilemma' of secure, affordable and low-carbon energy. The study considered a medium timeframe up to 2030.

We all carry our own carbon footprint: from our car journeys to heating our homes, everyday life has an impact on energy and material resources. While individuals have responsibility for minimising our use of energy and resources, engineers have a significant role in designing domestic technologies to achieve greater efficiency and less waste. This study, which was published in 2013, looked at the whole lifecycle of domestic technologies, examining the role of engineering innovation in each step.

A study, published in 2013, explored current and potential future marine propulsion systems, measuring them against the twin but related objectives of energy efficiency and environmental sustainability. The report followed a working party of more than 20 eminent engineering experts, led by Professor John Carlton FREng, Professor of Marine Engineering at City University London. Options investigated included greater use of LNG (liquefied natural gas) in current power units, battery and alternative fuel technologies, and nuclear-powered ships. No single or simple answer was identified that will meet every need or that can be applied to every type of vessel. Instead, further work is needed to adapt current technologies from the maritime industries and elsewhere to broader application in different types of ship and to research and develop innovative technologies specifically for maritime propulsion.

Built for living: understanding behaviour and the built environment through engineering and design, was published in July 2015 by the Academy with Arup and the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC). It follows three workshops held at RIBA, Arup and the Academy that explored the relationships between design, engineering and human behaviour. Three areas where the interplay between people and the built environment is key were explored:
The report presents case study examples and a set of design principles to help stakeholders consider key behavioural issues when designing and engineering the built environment. Recommendations are made to built environment stakeholders, research funding bodies and policymakers. In particular, the report recommends that built environment policies take account of behavioural issues, and emphasises the need for an integrated policy approach that considers interdependencies between different interventions.

Transport congestion is the subject of the Academy's first 'challenge paper', a discussion document authored by expert Fellows with the aim of stimulating debate on an issue of national concern.
The paper addresses the growing problem of congestion on the UK's road and rail networks and assesses the technical practicality of various measures to get more out of them, either to buy time before new infrastructure can be delivered or as the most effective means optimising existing capacity.
It recommends that government should develop an integrated strategy for tackling road and rail congestion and that such a strategy must maximise the impact of any measure by carefully packaging different technologies and policy measures together. It also finds that, of all the available interventions considered, efficient pricing on the road network offers the single best way of tackling congestion. The paper recognises that this is not currently popular with either politicians or the public, but that a well-designed system could attract popular support and achieve substantial reduction in levels of congestion.

Along the 1,933-mile border separating the United States from Mexico, rocks come hurtling through the air from south to north close to 800 times a year.
It's known as "rocking" among Border Patrol agents, and it's the most common hazard they face while monitoring the southwestern border.
A rocking incident last Tuesday on the San Diego-Tijuana border ended with a Border Patrol agent shooting to death 40-year-old Jose Alfredo Yañez Reyes. Before he was killed, Yañez allegedly flung rocks and a nail-studded board that struck one agent.
The shooting touched off a long-simmering controversy about whether a bullet is an appropriate or justified response to a rock. It's a debate that shows no sign of ending anytime soon.
Border Patrol agents defended the Tuesday shooting, which was done by a three-year agent who has not been identified. Immigrant-rights activists on both sides of the border and the Mexican government protested the incident, the latest of four lethal encounters between agents and Mexican citizens since January 2010.
On Friday, a coalition of 60 human-rights organizations issued a letter demanding that congressional committees investigate the Border Patrol's use of lethal force against rock throwers.
The letter, from the ACLU in San Diego as well as advocacy groups in the four states on the southwestern border, also urged Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano to tell agents it is "not acceptable" to shoot at rock throwers.
Such calls rankle agents and supporters of the Border Patrol. They said rock assaults are dangerous, and that the vast majority of "rocking" incidents don't end up with agents firing.
"Any of these people who spout off that a bullet is not proportionate to a rock should come out and patrol the border," said Shawn Moran of San Diego, spokesman for the union representing border agents and a 14-year veteran of the agency. "These things are no joke. It's anything from large stones to chunks of concrete."
Moran said agents get pelted almost nightly in some sectors, yet they "show a great deal of restraint" in virtually all cases. "We could have a shooting on the border every night," he added.
But Kevin Keenan, executive director of the ACLU in San Diego, said the shootings can't be tolerated.
"From everything we've seen in the past, the Border Patrol sanctions the shootings of rock throwers and does not provide for adequate tactical alternatives or use of less-than-lethal weapons," Keenan said.
In general, agents are allowed to use deadly force if they believe an assailant has the intent, means and opportunity to harm themselves or someone else. Moran said agents are trained in a five-step, use-of-force continuum, but do not have to go through each step if they feel an immediate threat.
Agents are armed with guns and less-than-lethal weapons, including pepper spray, Tasers and pepper-ball guns, he said.
The Tuesday incident is being investigated by the FBI and the San Diego Police Department; such investigations are routine in officer-involved shootings.
Critics are pushing for more transparency from the Border Patrol, saying it is difficult to assess the agency's conduct without further details about each altercation. In the past, the ACLU has used the federal Freedom of Information Act to request a copy of the agency's use-of-force policy and other data. In response, the Border Patrol released about 80 heavily redacted pages that did not include the policy.
Steven Cribby, a spokesman with the agency in Washington, D.C., declined a Union-Tribune request for the policy last week. He said the document was "law enforcement sensitive."
Rocking is the most frequent threat that Border Patrol agents face, according to data kept by the agency.
In 2008, agents reported 1,097 assaults against them, and 769 of those were rocking incidents, Cribby said. That was more than all other types of assaults combined. The other categories included shootings, physical assaults and actual or attempted rundowns by vehicles.
The same pattern continued in the following years.
In 2009, there were 756 rocking incidents out of a total of 1,073 assaults. Last year, agents reported 793 rocking cases out of 1,061 assaults overall.
Through May 31 of this year, there have been 299 rocking incidents, Cribby said.
Most of the rock-throwing occurs in the busiest sectors along the border, such as San Diego and Tucson, where the Border Patrol apprehended the most illegal immigrants last year.
The federal government's decision to significantly boost manpower and equipment along the border during the past decade is likely a factor in the growing number of assaults agents are facing, according to a report by the Congressional Research Service. The report said overall assaults rose about 40 percent from 2005 through 2009.
Increased Border Patrol staffing means "there are more targets for unauthorized migrants and smugglers to attack," the report said. Those attacks are often spurred by agitation at the success of the border crackdown, said Agent David Jimarez, who works in the Tucson sector.
"We're making it a lot more difficult to operate for these guys, and that is causing a massive amount of frustration," he said.
Yañez, the man who died Tuesday, was one of three men seen crossing into the U.S. about a half-mile west of the San Ysidro Port of Entry, according to San Diego police.
A pair of Border Patrol agents tried to arrest the trio, but two fled back to Mexico, police said. As the agents struggled with the third person, Yañez allegedly threw rocks and the piece of wood. When Yañez cocked his arm to throw another rock, police said, one of the agents opened fire.

Canajoharie /ˌkænədʒoʊˈhæri/ is a town in Montgomery County, New York, United States. The population was 3,730 at the 2010 census.[2] Canajoharie is located south of the Mohawk River on the south border of the county. The Erie Canal passes along the north town line. There is also a village of Canajoharie in the town. Both are east of Utica and west of Amsterdam.
These were settled as European-American jurisdictions, named for the historic Mohawk village of the same name, which was also known as the Mohawk Upper Castle.
The town is near the former site of Canajoharie, an important village of the Mohawk nation that also became known as the Upper Castle. The Mohawk had as their territory most of the central area of present-day New York from the Hudson River west to where Oneida territory started.[4] They also used the St. Lawrence River valley as hunting grounds after 1600. They dominated the fur trade with the French based in central Quebec, and with Dutch and later English in eastern New York. French, Dutch and later English trappers and traders came to this Mohawk village to trade. Both the French and Dutch married or had unions with Mohawk women, increasing their ties with the people. Their mixed-race children married into the Dutch and later English communities.[5] Many of their sons also became interpreters or traders.
Anglo-Europeans began settling in the area around 1730 and the Mohawk gradually adopted certain English customs in their village. Because the Mohawk and three other Iroquois nations were allied with the British during the Revolutionary War, they were forced to cede most of their lands in New York after the United States victory. The state sold millions of acres of land to speculators and private owners.
The town of Canajoharie was consumed by fire 3 times causing an ordinance to be passed prohibiting homes to be constructed of wood. Therefore, many of the older homes in the town are made of brick or locally quarried stone.
After the revolutionary war George Washington visited Canajoharie after surveying the damage to nearby Cherry Valley, NY. He stayed the night at the Van Alstyne home a common meeting place. The Van Alstyne house has long been referred to by some as Ft. Rensselaer), the actual Ft.Rensselaer (destroyed sometime before the French-Indian War) was in nearby Ft. Plain, NY.
The modern town was formed in 1788, but was reduced to form the towns of Minden (1798) and Root (in part, 1823). While the Mohawk Valley developed with the completion of the Erie Canal, the project also enabled considerable migration from New York to the Midwest. The population of the town in 1865 was 4,248.
Beech-Nut, the baby food producer, was founded in Canajoharie in 1891 during the period of early industrialization in the river valley. It served as the largest employer in the town for more than a century. In March 2011, the Beech-Nut factory moved out of Canajoharie, relocating to a new factory in the nearby town of Florida, near Amsterdam on the south side of the river, still in Montgomery County.[6]

Lawrence W. Dilger Sr. Family
|This effort is dedicated to the on-going documentation of my paternal ancestors, Lorenz and Catherine Dilger, who immigrated in 1856. To the best of my knowledge Lorenz, Catherine and 9 or their 11 children left their homestead in the Black Forest area of Germany and departed from Le Havre, France on the USS Guttenburg in the fall of 1856.They arrived in the port of New Orleans, Louisiana and travelled north to Santa Claus, Indiana. Eight days later Lorenz Dilger passed away, leaving Catherine and their 9 children to begin a new life in America. The other 2 children had died prior to the family leaving Germany.
Lorenz and Catherine Dilger are both buried at St. Boniface cemetary in Fulda, Indiana. Many of their descendants are still living in Indiana, yet many many more reside across the United States.If you believe that you descend from Lorenz and Catherine Dilger, I would like to hear from you.

Nursing in uniform...
Military mom 'proud' of breast-feeding in uniform, despite criticism
Brynja Sigurdardottir
Military mamas breast-feed with pride. A photo shoot at an Air Force base, intended to raise awareness about breast-feeding, has stirred up controversy.
Is breast-feeding while in uniform conduct unbecoming to a military mom?
The debate over nursing in public got a new layer recently, when photos taken on an Air Force base began to circulate online. In the series of tasteful professional photos showing beaming moms as they nurse their kids, one jumps out: the photo of two servicewomen with their uniform shirts unbuttoned and hiked up to breast-feed.
"A lot of people are saying it's a disgrace to the uniform. They're comparing it to urinating and defecating [while in uniform]," says Crystal Scott, a military spouse who started Mom2Mom in January as a breast-feeding support group for military moms and "anyone related to the base" at Fairchild AFB outside Spokane, Wash. "It's extremely upsetting. Defecating in public is illegal. Breast-feeding is not."
Live Poll
Should military moms breast-feed in uniform, in public?
|Yes! It's awesome.
|No, it's inappropriate.
184713Yes! It's awesome.69%
184714No, it's inappropriate.31%
VoteTotal Votes: 9733
It was Scott's idea to ask photographer Brynja Sigurdardottir to take photos of real-life breast-feeding moms to create posters for National Breastfeeding Awareness Month in August. One of the moms photographed in uniform, Terran Echegoyen-McCabe, breast-feeds her 10-month-old twin girls on her lunch breaks during drill weekends as a member of the Air National Guard.
"I have breast-fed in our lobby, in my car, in the park ... and I pump, usually in the locker room," she says. "I'm proud to be wearing a uniform while breast-feeding. I'm proud of the photo and I hope it encourages other women to know they can breast-feed whether they're active duty, guard or civilian."
She said she's surprised by the reaction to the photos, which also feature her friend Christina Luna, because it never occurred to her that breast-feeding in uniform would cause such a stir.
"There isn't a policy saying we can or cannot breast-feed in uniform," Echegoyen-McCabe says. "I think it's something that every military mom who is breast-feeding has done. ... I think we do need to be able to breast-feed in uniform and be protected."
The Air Force has no policy specifically addressing breast-feeding in uniform, according to Air Force spokesperson Captain Rose Richeson, who added, "Airmen should be mindful of their dress and appearance and present a professional image at all times while in uniform."
Brynja Sigurdardottir
Terran Echegoyen-McCabe, left, and Christina Luna breast-feed their children. Terran says she's proud of the photo, though she didn't expect it to get such a reaction.
Robyn Roche-Paull has been advocating for such a policy since she left the U.S. Navy 15 years ago. Her challenges in breast-feeding her son while on active duty - she recalls her "flaming red face" upon being reprimanded for nursing in a medical waiting room - prompted her to write a book called "Breastfeeding in Combat Boots" as a resource for military moms. She is now an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant who remains close to the military through her active-duty husband and her blog for military moms.
"If you follow the comments on my blog, a lot of the comments are that the breast-feeding mothers are the ones who need to be covered up. Nobody sees anything wrong with bottle feeding mothers or fathers," she says. "Asking mothers to feed a baby by bottle when they are together, simply because they are in uniform, can both affect the mom's milk supply and her willingness to keep breast-feeding or stay in the military. It's simply one more barrier they have to face."
The criticism of the photo goes beyond the usual nursing-in-public debate, though. One commenter on Roche-Paull's website who identified herself as a retired captain in the Marine Corps said she advocated for breast-feeding moms in the military and now, as a civilian, she nurses freely on base. However, she writes:
"I would never nurse in uniform. I took my child to the bathroom or a private office when her nanny brought her to me .... Not because I was ashamed of nursing, nor of being a mother. All the guys knew I pumped. The military is not a civilian job. We go to combat and we make life or death decisions, and not just for ourselves but for those we lead. The same reason I would never nurse in uniform is the same reason I do not chew gum, or walk and talk on my cell phone, or even run into the store in my utility uniform. ... We are warfighting professionals. Women before us have worked too hard to earn and retain the respect of their male peers. I don't want my Marines to look at me any other way than as a Marine. When I am asking them to fly into combat with me and do a dangerous mission, I do not want them to have the mental image of a babe at my breast. I want them to only see me as a Marine. Let's be a realistic folks. We give up many freedoms being in the military...Breastfeeding in front of my fellow Marines was one of them."
Another commenter on the blog replies:
"There is N-O-T-H-I-N-G more authoritative than a strong mother standing tall breastfeeding as she barks orders. It's AWESOME that you've worked so hard promote breastfeeding, but I think you *might* be selling yourself short."
The women in the photo have given some thought to the whole question of military versus maternal duties. To those who believe breast-feeding in uniform undermines the authority of a female officer, Echegoyen-McCabe says:
"I guess my thoughts are, if you don't want to breast-feed in your uniform, you don't have to. But you should have respect for those who do. ... If anything, it should make people look at you as someone who is able to multitask."
I just want to say that I nursed in uniform and am proud of myself :)
The regulations say something along the lines of you can't deploy a nursing mom with a baby under 4 mo. My oldest was like 4 1/2 mo or something and they wanted to deploy me. My husband was in the military too and I'm like so you want me to go right now with a nursing infant and a husband that is possibly deploying?!? Anyway, after a few days of all the pre-deployment stuff and me taking nursing breaks during it, they realized what a pain in the butt it was. I ended up getting out several months later cause we couldn't find anyone that could watch him full time if we both were deployed at the same time.
ummm people forget they have guns... lol j/k but there are other groups here that are bashing them for doing it and one group had a couple women comment on how big the woman with the twins boobs were....lets see someone tell THEM to breastfeed in the bathroom!
Her breasts only look that big because twins are smooshing them up, the shirt and bra are smooshing them together and I mean she is carrying milk for two ;)

Quoting EthansMomma2010:
I don't agree with nursing without a cover for anyone. What they really need is a uniform issued nursing cover! I'm a milspouse and I know that nursing without a cover would not go over well on our base. I agree with the former military woman who said we have worked to long and hard to earn respect from our male peers. To me if it's not something you would do in church then it certainly isn't appropriate for the military either.
I have nursed in uniform as a soldier, on base w/out a cover as a spouse and in church w/out a cover and I'm Pentecostal!!! LOL...so not a liberal church ;)

With none of the home nations taking part, we asked YOU to pick who she should support, and you chose Portugal!
But on Thursday night they were knocked out of the competition by Germany, and here's what Helen's got to say about it...
We're out but at least we went out with a bang, five goals were scored in our quarter final against Germany.
Germany's first goal was a cracker, more like a goal Portugal would usually score.
The passing was fast and accurate. We let another in, a lot of people will blame the goalie for that one.
In the second half we came out fighting and I thought we deserved a goal, especially when Pepe missed a header.
Ballack went on to score again for Germany making it three, one to them.
With five minutes to go Nani and helder Postiga paired up to give Portugal a chance, but we just didn't have enough time.
Although Germany were favourites they weren't great in the group stages so I thought we could sneak through.
They performed when it mattered though, and it's Germany who go on to the semi finals.

Summary:Our scout troop purchased 4 Kiva tents for use at Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico.
Two separate treks later (10 days each in Rocky Mtns, elevation from 6500 to 10,000+, variety of weather conditions) I can say the Kivas are boy scout proof. Three scouts plus gear in each Kiva with room to spare. Very happy with the purchase, they are gradually replacing our troop's traditional Timberline style tents.
Customer Service:While the tents are bombproof, 3 of the 4 stuff sacks separated where fabric encircles the drawstring. Replaced them with #6 Granite Gear toughsacks. No contact made with Mountain Hardwear for replacements.

Summary:Raves all the way. At first I was worried about bugs crawling in, so I used the footprint, which does keep things clean. No bugs ever come in, footprint or not, bugville or not. Great ventilation in heat and insulation in cold. You can stake out the extra bits and create little vestibules all around; I've had four of us in there and there's still room for one more. Tent body plus pole weighs 4 lbs 2 oz, footprint weighs 1 lb 6 oz. Split it 3 or 4 ways and you're stylin'. My favorite tent so far, and better yet, its orange!. Bring the playing cards, its a party!

Summary:I work fulltime in the outddors as a trail crew leader for the Florida Trail, and also do other volunteer work around the southeast in addition to my backpacking time. I haved used my Kiva in all conditions and can say that it is the best tent that I have used. There is plenty of interior space which makes it suitable as a base camp but it is light enough to use for extended backpacking trips. I like that I can jump in without having to remove my boots, especially during cold weather. I have replaced the pole by using by trekking poles and an adapter. I found that after a few uses the washer on the pole will not keep the pole locked in place. But my Kiva has seen many rainy and stormy nights and i even lived out of it last winter in the highcountry of southwest Va. It is a great tent for anyone looking for plenty of room.
Customer Service:I have several pieces of gear by Mountain Hardwear including sleeping bags and outerwear and have never had a need to call custiomer service. Their products are the bomb!!!
Similar Products Used:I have not tried any other pyramid style tents, but this tent has worked well for me so I have not felt the need to try others.

Summary:Finally a tent with enough space for 4, that's right 4 people, and UNDER 4 lbs. This tent is not for the closed minded! Basically, this tent is a 21st century version of the Black Diamond Pyramid. More room, better weather proofness (especially wind), and super lightweight. This tent is shaped like a pentagon (5 sides) and has no floor. A single pole is used to pitch it. It sleeps four people comfortably, and there is still room to pull in some gear. A slick vent in the top allows good ventalation, and the doors open wide for views and air. To keep the weight down to the minimums, use a pair of adjustable ski poles to hike with, and then use them as the center pole for the tent. This brings the tent under 4 lbs.! The 5 sides are more wind resistant than the pyramid design. A cool transparent window is on the tent wall also. This tent is really a winner!We have had it in rain, snow and sun just this season. Setting up is just a slightly different deal. There are two long tapes that help you to keep the geometric shape correct. This can be a bother in really bad weather, but as with everything,practice makes perfect. When pitched correctly, the tent is HUGE. I am still astounded by the footprint on this very innovative tent.
Similar Products Used:I have worn out tents by REI, Walrus, Sierra Designs, Kelty, TNF, and Eureka. I have been using the aformentioned BD Pyramid for many years, and this is a better version.

Ok, so I finally got rid of an error message because the remnants of Windows XP was on my D drive, which is my backup internal drive. Now my issue is that it doesn't even detect it in the BIOS or when I start Windows 7 using my C drive to boot from, there is no D drive either! I have tried unplugging and plugging back in the cables running to this D drive, to no avail. Also, as a side note, I am using a Asus P8P67 motherboard if that helps any!

Does it show up in Disk Management?
Ok, so after Googling how to find Disk Management, and accessing it, my drive D doesn't show up as drive D, but instead shows up as Disk 0. It states it is a basic drive, like all of the other ones do as well, but instead of having a blue bar in the box to the left of it, it has a black rectangular bar similar to the blue ones on the other ones, and says "unallocated." All the other drives, including my optical drive states "healthy" as the status. Thank you for your help!
DBAN wipes EVERYTHING, including any high-level formatting and MBR.
For the drive to disappear from My Computer is perfectly normal and 100% expected. In fact I'd be very worried if it didn't disappear.
All you need to do now, is initialize and partition/format the drive in Disk Management, and you'll be able to use it again.
Ok, so I understand this can be accomplished by a simple reformatting using the disk management feature. Since I am using a secondary internal backup drive I am fine, but in the near future I am planning to wipe my primary hard drive, and still want to use the secondary internal one for storage only, and not as a boot drive. How would I go about reformatting the drive if I decide to use derik's boot and nuke for this? Is there someway to do this?
Formatting and partitioning the system drive is done as part of the Windows (or any other OS for that matter) installation process when doing a clean install.

Monday July 23rd, 2012 4:16pm
LOUISVILLE, Ky.- The University of Louisville women's lacrosse team earned a much needed BIG EAST win today with a decisive 15-8 triumph over Connecticut. The Cardinals used an 11 goal second-half outburst to take control of the game, after being tied at four at the half. The Cardinals other win against Connecticut came back in 2008, also by the score of 15-8 at the University of Louisville Lacrosse Stadium.
"Katie Oliverio and Liz Lovejoy both had great games," said University of Louisville lacrosse head coach Kellie Young. "We were able to start our seniors both halves and that was huge."
The Cardinals (9-5, 2-3) had 36 shots to the Huskies 17, making it the second straight game in which the Cards have doubled their opponents shot total. U of L leads all BIG EAST schools in shots per game. Louisville recorded 16 draw controls to Connecticut's nine and had 20 ground balls to the Huskies' 16. Currently the Cards are second nationally in draw controls trailing Northwestern.
Bergan Foley led U of L with six goals on the day, her second straight game with at least six goals and her fifth game this season with at least six goals. Foley scored her 62nd goal of the season with 25:58 remaining, breaking her old school record for goals in a season of 61 set in both 2008 and 2009. Foley has led the NCAA in goals per game for the past five weeks, and was currently tied for first in total goals in games through April 18th.
"Bergan just sparks us," said Young. "It was great that she had six goals and an assists even when she was face-guarded. It is satisfying when a team is forced to do that and she still scores."
Lovejoy added four goals on the afternoon for the Cardinals. Foley and Lovejoy set a new school record for goals in a season by a tandem (101), breaking the mark of 100 set by Foley and Lovejoy during the 2008 campaign and Foley and Lianne Bobal last season. <!-- STORY AD BEGINS HERE -->
Oliverio, a sophomore, dished out four assists for U of L. She came into the game ranked third in the nation in assists per game and fifth nationally in total assists. Oliverio (59) and Foley (68) have combined for 127 points on the season, setting a new school record for points in a season for a tandem that was previously held by Foley and Lovejoy who combined for 115 during the Cards' inaugural season. Emily Dashiell led the Cardinals with five draw controls while Meghan Ryan and Sammy Allen each had three. Dashiell and Foley combined for six caused turnovers against Connecticut (8-7, 1-5).
Goalie Danielle Pawliw had seven of her eight saves at key moments in the second half.
"It was great that Pawliw had key saves in the second half," said Young.
The Cardinals will host their final home game of the season on Sunday, when they play host to Syracuse (11-4, 5-1), 19-3 winners over Cincinnati on Friday. Louisville is 0-1 all-time against the Orange.
"We need to fix our transition game, but it was a big win," said Young. "We know we have to win out to make the BIG EAST Tournament."

These beauties are natural born killers.
They lure victims in and eat them alive.
Not to worry. Carnivorous plants might eat people in the movies, but in real life they help people.
"They eat what bites us," said Karen Oudean, owner of Oudean's Willow Creek Nursery in Snohomish. "They eat hornets, yellow jackets, mosquitoes, flies, gnats."
She'll set up her little shop of horrors this weekend at Sorticulture, Everett's three-day garden arts festival.
Six bucks buys a basic Venus flytrap. Butterworts, sundew, cobra and pitcher plants range from $5 to $65.
Oudean has been raising carnivorous plants for about 20 years.
"I saw pictures in National Geographic from a place in North Carolina," she said.
"They were architecturally different. It was like an abstract form. I'm an abstract artist. The lines were so simple and clean and unique. It struck a chord for me. I ordered a few and tested them."
That was it. She was hooked. She wasn't alone.
Demand for the plants took over her garden-variety greenhouse. "It crowded out the hostas and primrose."
Now she has about an acre of the meat-eating plants at her home nursery. Plants are sold mail-order, wholesale and by appointment.
"It's a whole different kind of gardening because you have to give them wet feet," Oudean said. "It has to be done right. A person has to understand their needs."
Buyers get an instruction sheet to tend to these botanical mutants. The biggest hazard is kids trying to feed rocks to the plants. A bug's movement gets those plant juices going to produce enzymes to dissolve its dinner. Rocks don't get a plant excited and can damage their special glands.
No, you don't have to feed them bugs in the winter. These are plants, not reptiles.
"They're not eating when dormant," Oudean said. "When the light level is low, they're not producing the enzyme to dissolve bugs."
As for her art.
"I haven't had time," she said. "My art now is in these guys. The plants are my medium."

Gates PSL Scholars have the opportunity to attend the UW School of Law and then
pursue public interest law without the crushing burden of educational debt. The
scholarship program covers all cost of tuition, books, room and board and incidental
expenses during law school. In exchange, students dedicate five years to public
service. Each of the Gates PSL Scholarship recipients say the chance to earn a law
degree from one of the finest schools in the nation free of any debt is a dream
come true. The financial assistance provided by the scholarship allows them to move
directly into jobs doing what they love – providing public service to those
in need.
Scholar Employment Information Map
From catching trout in small rivers as a boy to aiding conservation biologists on
the shores of China's Lake Dianchi, Wyatt Golding has developed and demonstrated
a strong commitment to protecting the environment.
"When I came to China, for the first time I saw just how important the law is and
what happens when you have limited rule of law," said Golding. "I also saw how bad
policies that affect natural resources can tear apart a whole community."
After Golding graduated from Yale University, he was selected as a Yale-China Fellow
to teach English to high school students in Xiuning, a rural town in southern Anhui
province in China's south central interior. In addition to his teaching duties,
he worked as a researcher for the Chinese Academy of Sciences Institute of Hydrobiology.
He wrote a paper for the Academy on the environmental policy history of Lake Dianchi.
Once considered a "pearl on the plateau", the waters of the lake are now so polluted
that they are unsafe to touch.
Golding hopes to use his skills and passion for integrating environment and society,
as well as a law degree, to protect and restore waterways and their surrounding
communities. He said his dream job would involve helping communities broker and
share water resources.
Golding said he was "blown away" to be considered for the Gates Scholarship.
"It's a dream come true."
Lillian Hewko said her inspiration to work in public service comes from personal
childhood experience. The daughter of a Mexican mother and white father, she says
she was "exposed to many racial disparities." This insight, in addition
to an internship for the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law where she
worked with voter disenfranchisement issues, fueled her fervor to protect and preserve
civil rights, especially for the disadvantaged.
"It was that internship that opened up my eyes to racism in the U.S.,"
she said. "And I know that the law can remedy some of these injustices."
The University of California San Diego graduate noticed that in the neighborhood
where the clients lived they did not have access clean water or sewage services.
"The fact that these people were living in third world conditions in the U.S.
in 2003 was appalling," said Hewko.
From her work with ex-felons in the U.S., Hewko took her experience to the other
side of the equator as a Peace Corps volunteer in Paraguay for two years. There,
she worked with prison inmates, many of whom were trying to re-enter society after
25 year prison sentences. She also trained teachers, worked on the promotion of
HIV/AIDS prevention, and created a tutoring system for street kids.
About the scholarship, Hewko says, "It's unbelievable that the UW has this
option. There are other scholarships, but this one goes beyond just the scholarship.
The Gates PSL Program provide mentors and put the scholars in touch with local public
interest lawyers."
Nick Marritz has a pretty good idea what it takes to work in public service. After
all, his dad has been a legal aid lawyer for over thirty years. When he asked his
father about going into public interest law, Marritz's father said, "Do it only
if you want to. The job has a lot of stress, but you'll feel very good about yourself
if you pursue it."
While studying abroad in Germany after high school, Marritz found himself marching
alongside students and teachers in a demonstration against proposed education spending
cuts. It was then he understood the power of organizing for social causes. He pursued
his undergraduate education at the University of Pittsburgh and after graduation
he went to work as a paralegal with a small Pittsburgh law firm representing union
Later, as a campaign assistant with the International Labor Rights Fund, Marritz
focused his sights on issues in Latin America. He volunteered for a rural community
union in Guatemala called Nueva Alianza helping establish an international volunteer
program. He said it was "inspiring to be part of the legal process for social
change," and "you learn a lot about yourself when you put yourself in
an alien environment."
Marritz said the "Gates Program is really unique in terms of how the program
is set up. One thing that really impresses me is the commitment to 80 years of producing
good public interest lawyers…that's amazing."
Miranda Strong witnessed first-hand how important it can be to stand up for those
who are not always able to defend themselves. In second grade, her two little brothers,
both of whom have Asperger syndrome (a form of autism), were being picked on by
the schoolyard bully.
"I got into my first and only fist fight," she said, laughing and added,
"I felt bad, but I was also elated that I was actually able to do something."
Now, Strong says she wants to use words and policy to fight for people with disabilities.
The self-described "die hard Alaskan" and University of Alaska Anchorage graduate,
says people in her home state "look at things a little differently. People in Alaska
are very flexible and innovative. Living in a rural state presents a lot of challenges,
but we have the skills to overcome those obstacles."
Strong is currently a mental health associate working with youth. It was her strong
interest in health and disability law that drew her to the UW.
"The UW law school has such a supportive network," she said, pointing to the faculty
expertise in disability law.
Strong says she is privileged to be a Gates Scholar. "The other Scholars are passionate
about making a difference. The scholarships enable us to pursue public service careers."
Rebecca Watson comes to the UW after having a ten-year career in public service.
"I've been working in the social justice movement since I left college,"
she said. "It's the only work I can imagine myself doing and I keep looking
for better ways to contribute through my work." Although her work has been
satisfying, Watson said it became clear a law degree would enable her to be a more
powerful advocate and that she found there are not enough attorneys doing social
justice work.
"There are not that many attorneys that can afford to work for often-underfunded
organizations and still manage to pay back their school loans," she said.
Watson lived in Guatemala after graduating from Macalester College in St. Paul,
Minnesota. This experience led her to a position as a Red Cross Liaison to Spanish-speaking
communities in Portland, Oregon. She then returned to Latin America for three more
years to work with Witness for Peace where she taught delegations of visitors from
the U.S. about the impacts of U.S. foreign policy in those countries.
Two years ago, Watson joined the Southern Poverty Law Center in Montgomery, Alabama,
as a paralegal and worked to advocate for immigrants in post-Katrina New Orleans.
She found immigrant workers who came to help rebuild New Orleans were often victims
of labor abuses and had few options for legal assistance.
"There is a tendency to think of human rights and relate this to political
rights," said Watson. "But when wages are stolen and this forces families
to go without adequate food or shelter, this is a human rights issue. We all have
the right to be paid for our work. I see labor issues in a human rights context."

Classes start at UGA with most qualified class in university history
August 16, 2013
by Jere W. Morehead, President
Classes for the 2013 fall semester start Monday and we will be fully about our core mission at UGA. This is always an exciting time, when the energy level on campus increases as 35,000 students return, but it is especially so this year for me as I have the honor of opening the term as the 22nd President.
The freshman class is the most academically qualified in UGA history – some 5,150 students who brought to campus an average GPA of 3.86 and an SAT average of 1280. As if that were not strong enough, in the Honors Program 526 new students bring a GPA of 4.07 and an SAT average of 1462. Perhaps the best news for Georgia is that some 87% of the freshmen are Georgians. This state can – and does – prepare students for top-level academic work.
My focus will always be on strengthening the core academic mission of the institution. We owe our students and their families nothing less than the best possible educational experience, and we owe the state our service in addressing its most pressing problems.
I am excited about this academic year and humbled by the responsibility. There are great days ahead for the University of Georgia.

New Member who needs buying advice for 645
Hello all
Currently I own a 2005 Range Rover that has pissed me off for the last time lol
I have always wanted a 645ci and now is the time for me to have my machine. There are a few things I want to ask from you guys.
Is the manual tranny better built with less issues than the automatic? ( I would rather the manual )
Are there issues with the convertible mechanics acting up?
Does anyone offer a diagnostic tool that I could interface the car via laptop rather than going to the dealer? I rather work on my own cars for my own pleasure
I have been a member on other forums for most of the cars I have owned but today I am just lazy so no search button for me ( sorry )
Thanks in advance
New Member who needs buying advice for 645
As for the convertible top, most owners do have some issues with the top not closing. That is why I picked the coupe over the convertible. Some convertible owners will chime in on this.
In regards to diagnostics, some members will be able to point in the right direction.
Good luck!

Once a 6'er, always a 6'er.
Full diagnostics and coding software available. Check eBay for BMW OBD.
Then go see bmwcoding.com, bmwforums.com (coding/diagnostic area), M5board.com (M6 area) and the coding thread in this forum...I think started by TampaMark.
The programs you are looking for are : DIS, SSS, ETK, TIS, INPA and NCS Expert (among others). The level of DIY available for our cars will probably keep me in Bimmers the rest of my life.
Good luck. I love my 6!
FYI - The software setup is a bitch. Plan on doing a lot of reading and searching if you go down that path.

Thanks for all the quick and friendly replies. I really expected one or two members to say use the search button...
I have been browsing these bmw forums from time to time because my range rover has the same motor as the 645ci series. The motor is pretty much bullet proof but most times the motor to transmission always fails as a match in heaven with usually the transmission being the weaker link to the couple.
Its also great to hear that the manual is more likely the better transmission over the auto. I really was less interested in the convertible just because I am not really into having one even though they are nice as well but being a mechanical engineer I know gears , motors and sensors all wear and more than likely they are probably made out of plastic due to poor engineering or design driven by low production cost to higher product return. The Range Rover is a perfect example of this.
Thanks for all the information you guys have provided thus far. I will do my fair share of reading to bring myself up to date on smaller issues and DIY fixes. I am just glad to hear that me going from a Land Rover to a BMW 6 series is a relief. I really really really need it lol

Here is a good thread with a bunch of problem areas listed.
These are not all 100% likely to happen. So far my '06 has been bulletproof. The top issue is related to a sensor in the frame, not the actual hydraulics that open/close the top.
The manual trany is rock solid.
The great thing about BMWs is you can get your hands on the actual software used by dealers to diagnose and program the car. Tricky to get working but there are some vendors out there that sell kits with a cable and software to make it easier. Check out the top of the DIY programming thread for a link to the vendor.

I have been reading various threads on water leaking into the rear and causing issues with the convertibles as well as the SMG trans issues
I will stick with my choice of a hard top and manual transmission.

If you check the drains every once and a while you are good.
Oh yeah, use the Search function, this has been discussed. Since you said you expected to hear that I did not want to disappoint!

I am going to head with a hard top. I have dealt with more than enough with the Range Rover. I still can not get over the fact that a low battery can have you chasing all sorts of error messages and I really hope BMW has not gone with a liquid cooled alternator like what is installed on the Range Rover. I say this because I have the same bmw motor in my truck. In the spring my water pump went out , seized the belt pulley , snapped the belt which cut all my coolant hoses like a whip with a blade. The further damage was that the water pump has plastic fans catches that crumbled sending small fragments into that beautiful liquid cooled alternator which crapped that out as well. Happy happy joy joy with a stick straight up the rear of me. The bastard didn't even spit on it lol
I did all the work myself but I really wanted to hunt down the engineer who designed that system so I can drive the truck thru is living room and park it as a Christmas tree because my dash had so many lights on from this.
Sorry for the vent
BTW I have learned that if you do not use 0w40 mobil 1 or better your just asking for the vanos to take a dump. I am sure you guys know this but I was very surprised at how well that motor reacted to this oil type. For the transmission please do not believe that label that says no service required. It means no service required until we have to put in a new transmission for ya
Yes I will use the search button lol
I have an 08 650 cab manual and so far it has been OK. Manual tranny has no issues that I am aware of except finding a vehcile that has one. I get a failure to start from time to time and spurious low voltage faults, but they go away after a nice long drive or a night on the charger (evidently I have the evil unfavorable driving profile) but so far no issues with the top. You definitely have to check the drain holes both under the top as well as below the cabin filters from time to time. For diagnostics I ordered the cable & software package from BM Technic and it works well. It also allows you to reprogram cool stuff in and annoying stuff out, but there are hundreds of posts about that. Good luck
Freedom Isn't Free
I bought a 2005 m/y 645ci vert with 62000 miles on the clock for around $25000 (converted from ZAR) fresh out of BMW Maintenance Plan. Been a pleasure to drive and no major problems yet. Thermostat, Evap Valves and headlamp washer pump needed replacing (warranty covered all but the valves). Hydro stabilizer bar (Dynamic Drive) sprung the common leak but I repaired it thanks to a DIY posted elsewhere on this forum. Anti-theft car tracking system was killing the battery and causing phantom errors but after removing it the errors are gone. A friend of mine drove the car and ramped it so the entire front suspension was replaced by BMW as well.
My SA at BMW told me that the suspension on these cars are prone to bending which leads to excessive play around 100'000km. He mentioned that this is due to the aluminium components used. Tyres on the narrow and wide 19" mixed setup are damned expensive, and since March this year I have had 3 rims repaired. I have ordered the BMW Tyre Mobility Kit (71100413439) and plan on converting to non-runflat tyres all around.
Fuel economy wise my car is spot on with the town driving figures (16l/100km mixed driving / 14mpg) but when you buy these kind of cars you should not be worried about fuel costs.
If you are looking at a vert then double check and triple check...and check one more time...the roof operation. Listen to the pump and if it sounds like it is straining then query it. Also check for water stains in the convertible top compartment as well as in the battery well in the trunk.
If the car has heated seats check their operation. The driver side seat especially is prone to failure. You can verify this by sitting in the seat, activating the heating and then monitor the head distribution. If the bolster on one side gets really hot and the opposite side of the seat barely has any heat then most likely the heating mat has disintegrated. Unfortunately these cannot be replaced cheaply since they are bonded to the leather (around $4500 per seat from BMW).
Lastly...check for the dreaded seatbelt/SRS warnings and failures. Like the rest of the E6x cars (5-er and 7-er) the 6-ers develop problems with their seat occupancy mats and other SRS systems. I was able to sort mine out with programming while retaining all SRS functionality but others have not been this lucky.
That's not promising. I have been looking at these cars in the 45k to 55k for mileage. For all those problems to have happen so young in miles is not good. I understand that these are BMW's but they should be built better. Nissan maxima's never have problems like this!
I swear the wrencher in me chants bob the builder. " we can fix it Cory " while the cheapo in me says " buy a Nissan and be happy you dork"
I battle myself daily lol
choices and choices.
Thanks for chiming in
Ultimately you won't go wrong with the BMW. Sure, it has its little niggles, but the joy of hearing the engine come to life each time you turn the key is the best. The 6-er in vert guise is an incredibly rewarding drive and they are scarce (well at least here they are). For what it's worth the suspension work (control arms, wishbones, support struts, subframe and sundries) came to $5000 all inclusive, brand new and all the work was done by BMW.

Though I would add to the list: Drive Belt and C.Comp Belt both being replaced today. The C.Comp belt snapped, wrapped itself around the Drive Belt pulley and started eating away at the Drive Belt. Whole thing is frayed now. This explains why my aircon has not been working for a month now.
It seems like the 6 will be a money pit!
Great news is that I flew to CT to close out the loan I had on the range rover so I can obtain the title to sell to CarMax or trade in at a dealer with a 6 that's in good condition with low mileage. There is a member from NY who does valve stem repairs for about $2500.00. He has a 6'er that I am highly interested due to him being a BMW Tech and has gone thru any fixes with the car. The only down side is that its black and is an auto. I am at a cross with this because I really want white / silver / or that gray color. If I find one in that chateau color I will be sold!
Thanks Everyone
All I can say is that its a great chose. I have had my 05 645CI going on 4 years and with the exception of a few minor things like tires and brakes , it has been great. This is my 2nd BMW and I also has a Mercedes also and The BMW 645 wins hands down

No Objection Letter for Recycled Plastics #110
Return to inventory: Submissions on Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) Plastics for Food-Contact Articles
See also Recycled Plastics in Food Packaging
June 25, 2007
Frank Welle
Fraunhofer Institut
Verfahrenstechnik und Verpackung
Giggenhauser Str. 35
D-85354 Freising
Re: Prenotification Consultation (PNC) 553
Dear Dr. Welle:
This is in response to your electronic submission, received on 12 November 2006 and amended on 5 April 2007, requesting on behalf of Uhde Inventa-Fischer GmbH & Co. KG (UIF) an opinion letter from the FDA confirming the capability of UIF's secondary recycling process (called "Super Clean") to produce post-consumer recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PCR PET) of suitable purity for use in the manufacture of articles in contact with food under conditions of use C through G, as described in Table 2 on our website: http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~rdb/opa-fcn3.html.
We have reviewed UIF's recycling process as well as the information obtained from surrogate testing and migration modeling, which were submitted to demonstrate the capability of the UIF's recycling process to remove potential contaminants from PCR PET. Based on our review of these data, we have determined that UIF's recycling process, as described in the 12 November 2006 submission, would be effective in reducing potential contaminants from the feedstock, consisting of food and non-food PET containers, to levels that would result in dietary concentrations below 0.5 ppb, FDA's threshold of regulatory concern. Therefore, we have concluded that UIF's recycling process, as described in the 12 November 2006 submission, would produce PCR PET that is of a purity suitable for use in the manufacture of food-contact articles under conditions of use C through G, as described in Table 2 on our website: http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~rdb/opa-fcn3.html, provided that the PCR PET complies with 21 CFR 177.1630, and the feedstock consists of food and non-food PET containers, excluding industrial PET containers.
