AIDA: Protecting communities and the environment in the Americas
Founded in 1998, AIDA is a nonprofit environmental law organization that works across international borders to defend threatened ecosystems and the human communities that depend on them. Environmental health and human rights can no longer be protected by working within the political boundaries of individual nations: the 35 countries of our hemisphere are united under a common environmental flag. International problems call for international responses, and AIDA develops transnational strategies to address the environmental and human rights challenges of the 21st century.
AIDA's mission
Our mission is to strengthen people's ability to guarantee their individual and collective right to a healthy environment, via the development, implementation, and effective enforcement of national and international law.
What does AIDA do?
Environmental systems throughout the Americas are being pushed to the limit by industrial activities, population growth, and irresponsible public policy. Focusing our efforts on problems in Latin America, AIDA partners with local groups to field multinational teams of lawyers and scientists to tackle a range of environmental crises – the decline of freshwater resources, the proliferation of toxins, climate change, and the decimation of vulnerable biodiversity. Environmental health is part and parcel with human health: protecting the environment we also protect the underprivileged communities that depend on their ecosystems for fresh air, clean water, and livable habitat.
Our methods are diverse. Complex problems don't yield to simple solutions, and AIDA employs a broad suite of advocacy tools. We combine legal work with education and alliance-building initiatives designed to empower citizens and arm policy-makers with the knowledge needed to make responsible choices. We distribute reports on key issues, leverage international institutions and tribunals to expose flawed policies, and help nonprofit organizations to work for environmental enforcement when governments can't or won't get the job done.
AIDA conducts its efforts according to four basic principles:
Encourage Transnational Collaboration.
In many cases, environmental crises can't be boxed into individual nations. Pesticide spraying in Colombia threatens forests in Ecuador; polluted waters from Bolivia damage fragile wetlands in Brazil; overfishing by boats registered in Panama causes global disruptions in marine ecosystems; and consumer excess in the United States strains environmental resources throughout the hemisphere. AIDA doesn't let arbitrary political boundaries dictate the scope of our efforts. We do what it takes to win, no matter how many borders we have to cross along the way.
Protect human rights.
Environmental health and human rights are two sides of the same coin. Without the services provided by functioning ecosystems – clean water, breathable air, and productive soil – human communities cannot thrive. When human rights are violated, democracy fails. When significant disparities in economic capacity and political influence are involved, AIDA protects poor communities struggling against powerful corporate or state interests.
Cultivate the power of international law.
Many international treaties make lofty promises that lead to little action. Commitments on paper are meaningless without real-world incentives and mechanisms for enforcement. AIDA designs international strategies that lead to measurable results: we hold governments accountable and build the capacity of key players in positions to make a difference.
Encourage citizen enforcement and public participation.
Lasting change comes from the ground up. AIDA works to empower the communities and organizations that we represent. Sometimes, governments cannot be relied upon to protect basic environmental and human rights. When the authorities don't deliver, AIDA helps nonprofit organizations enforce the law.

Spring game-breakers: Alonso quarterback Chris Oladokun threw two touchdown passes — both to Derrick Walker — in the closing minutes to cap the Ravens' rally. The first came on a 9-yard pass on fourth down; the second was a 35-yard lob with 26 seconds left. Oladokun finished 11-of-15 passing for 180 yards in the two-quarter game. …Steinbrenner's Division I recruit Kezio Snelling returned the opening kickoff for the Warriors' only TD. Linebacker Patrick Lukert was in on three Warrior sacks, and Trent Shaw recovered a fumble at the 1. …Sickles star Ray Ray McCloud III dominated the second game with 98 yards from scrimmage on 13 touches. McCloud, who lined up at running back, quarterback and receiver, had a 4-yard TD rush and a 50-yard score brought back because of a delayed timeout...Isaac Holder added a two-point conversion rush for the Gryphons. …Gaither's only score came on a 40-yard burst by Malik Huff, who also threw a 27-yard pass on a trick play.
Did you know? Jeremy Martinez recovered a fumble for Alonso with 44 seconds left to set up the winning drive. …The Ravens converted on three fourth downs on their first scoring drive. …Gaither had a chance to take the lead with 1:02 left, but Cory Woodard broke up a fourth-down pass to seal Sickles' win. …About a dozen college recruiters were present, including scouts from Florida, Florida State, USF, Clemson and Michigan. Former Bucs and FSU star Derrick Brooks was there, too.
Audible 1: "That last drive was crazy. It was like a movie sort of. That's the things you dream about there." — Oladokun on the Ravens' winning 45-yard drive
Audible 2: "Isaac Holder isn't given enough credit. That kid is the best quarterback in our county. I think he's the best quarterback in the state." — Sickles coach Brian Turner

Does the province have any foreign exchange exposure? If yes, which currencies and how much?
View the foreign exchange exposures.
How much of the province's debt is floating?
View the fixed & floating rate exposures.
Note: the province defines floating debt as including all maturities within the next year, short-term debt outstanding and fixed issue debt that has been converted into floating instruments.
What is the difference between Debt and Deficit?
Debt represents the money borrowed from lenders for a variety of reasons, and using a variety of debt instruments including short-term notes, capital leases and bonds.
The province pays interest for the use of the money it borrows and is obligated to repay it at a set date as determined by the terms of the debt instrument. For bonds, the province contracts to pay the bondholder a stipulated rate of interest on specific dates over a stated period of time. At the end of this time the province agrees to repay the principal amount against the surrender of the bond. For other debt instruments, the interest is a component of the payment that is due when the instrument matures.
Deficit an excess of expense over revenue. The annual deficit is the amount by which the total annual operating expenses for the year exceed total annual revenues. The accumulated deficit is the sum of all deficits and surpluses incurred since the inception of the provincial government; it also represents the amount by which the total liabilities of the province exceed its total assets. Deficit spending is the spending of public funds raised by borrowing rather than by taxation.
Is the Debt increasing or decreasing?
To meet the needs of a growing economy, significant capital investments are planned over the coming years. Capital requirements are detailed in the British Columbia Debt Summary.
Where does all this money come from?
The provinces borrowing requirements are expected to come from the domestic capital market, with a smaller portion of funds sourced from international markets.
The province raises funds from various international capital market sources depending on market conditions and the ability to secure the lowest cost of funds. By diversifying its borrowing sources away from the traditional domestic market, British Columbia is able to tap international demand for its debt securities. Typical investors include pension funds and insurance companies.
Who decides where our money is spent?
General policy guidance on the priorities of government are set by the Executive Council or Cabinet. Translating these priorities into services that are delivered to the public is done by three general groups within the government reporting entity: ministries, taxpayer-supported service delivery agencies, and the SUCH sector (schools, universities, colleges and health authorities). The proposed public spending by these organizations is set out in the government's Budget and Fiscal Plan each February.
As part of the budget process, cabinet ministers submit annual Estimates of their ministry's spending to the Legislative Assembly for inclusion in the annual appropriation bill known as the Supply Act. Ministries are responsible for both providing services directly to the public and funding to other organizations such as the taxpayer-supported service delivery agencies and the SUCH sector in support of their activities. Each ministry's financial appropriation is subject to debate and vote by the Assembly.
The expectations of government with respect to the services to be delivered by taxpayer-supported service delivery agencies are set out in letters of expectation between the boards of the individual agencies and their respective responsible ministers. The boards then direct the management of the agencies in the delivery of the expected services.
The SUCH sector entities primarily are governed by legislation. As well, the individual ministers responsible for the programs that the SUCH entities deliver provide instruction to the boards on specific policy issues. The boards, in turn, provide direction to their management teams on the delivery of service to the public. The governments financial year runs from April 1 to March 31 of each year.
Why does the province borrow money?
The province borrows money because current revenue from taxes is not sufficient to meet all expenditures. Large sums of money are required for capital expenditures on schools, hospitals, roads, power plants and so on. The province borrows money for capital projects and then collects taxes in subsequent years to pay the principal and interest. These assets are expected to last a long time and benefit present and future residents. Therefore, the cost is spread out over the life of the assets and shared by all those who will benefit from them during that time.
The province and its Crown corporations and agencies also borrow money to finance operations. Tax revenue is collected at different levels throughout the year (for example, property taxes are collected in July). As a consequence, cash is borrowed for short periods to pay for unforeseen operating expenses (for example, additional money is required during the forest fire season).
Why does the province borrow money when it has a surplus?
The province must adhere to certain polices and parameters with respect to management of the public debt portfolio. One these polices is to Avoid funding under unfavourable market conditions. Accordingly, the province will typically manage its funding program ahead of actual requirements. Also, while the Province generally relies on its outlook for interest rates and foreign exchange to guide the timing of its decisions for financing, fixed rate debt costs are generally averaged-in over time, as financing a large annual borrowing requirement strictly in accordance with a market outlook may prove to be incorrect and is considered to be imprudent.
Another reason the province might borrow funds when the budget shows a surplus relates to the accounting treatment of capital projects according to Generally Accepted Accounting Policy (GAAP). Costs relating to capital investments, such as hospitals , schools and roads, are amortized for depreciation over the expected life of the asset. An example would be a $300 million road project that may cost $10 million in annual amortization (from an accounting perspective) but would still need to be funded upfront during the construction period. Consequently, the province may need to borrow in order to fund the full cost of the capital asset, irrespective of the fact that it has an operating surplus.
The province also borrows on behalf of crown corporations which is part of the provincial borrowing program. Accordingly, the province would still borrow funds for Crowns with an operating deficit or for capital purposes, even though the province itself might have a balanced budget or surplus.
Do we loan money?
We do not loan money in the traditional sense, rather the provincial government and its Crown corporations and agencies incur debt to finance operations and capital projects.
Who rates B.C.s credit and how?
Three credit rating agencies rate the province, two major U.S. rating agencies (Moodys and Standard & Poors) and one national firm (Dominion Bond Rating Service). Each agency conducts a detailed annual review following the provincial Budget presentation and each agency monitors the province throughout the year. Recently, Fitch Ratings also released a rating on the Province.
British Columbia has one of the highest credit ratings among the Canadian provinces, reflecting its strong balance sheet and the depth and diversity of its economy.
How does our credit rating affect our cost of borrowing?
A credit rating is an evaluation of a borrowers ability to pay interest and to repay principal. A credit rating affects the borrowers debt servicing costs and the investors rate of return since the investor will demand a higher interest rate on a more risky, lower-rated security.

Ottawa Senators on pace for playoffs
By DON BRENNAN, QMI Agency
As they approach the halfway mark of this lockout-shortened season, the Senators are on pace to make the playoffs.
In fact, they're sitting exactly in the same position they were at the same point in 2011-12.
After 41 outings of that 82-game schedule, they had a 21-15-5 record that had them fifth in the East. Their 47 points put them seven behind the front-running New York Rangers and three ahead of the ninth-place New Jersey Devils.

MLB notebook: Braun should be ready for series with Pirates
Brewers slugger Ryan Braun should be ready to return from a right oblique strain in time for next week's series against the Pirates.
The outfielder hasn't played since April 26. Braun was hitting .318 with six homers and 18 RBIs when he was placed on the 15-day disabled list May 3.
Braun took batting practice before the team's game Wednesday afternoon against Arizona. Manager Ron Roenicke said Braun should be ready when eligible to play his next game Tuesday against the NL Central rival Pirates.
Diversity findings released
The league maintained its racial and gender hiring practices in the last year, and the percentage of African-American players equaled a study's all-time low set in the 2007 season.
That's according to the annual report by Richard Lapchick's Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sports at the University of Central Florida. It gave MLB an "A" in racial hiring and "C-plus" in gender hiring.
The baseball rosters on Opening Day featured 8.2 percent of players who identified as African-American, equaling the study's all-time low for the second time since it began in 1988. It's a decline from 8.3 percent in 2013 and 8.9 percent in 2012.
Nats' manager OK after crash
This is not the sort of hit-and-run situation Nationals manager Matt Williams expected to encounter on a game day.
Williams said he was stopped in traffic a few blocks from Nationals Park while driving to work Wednesday when his car was sideswiped by another vehicle that then took off and was chased by police.
And it all happened while Williams was doing his weekly live radio appearance with "The Junkies" on 106.7 The Fan.
Meeting with reporters before Washington's game against the Dodgers, Williams said: "I'm fine. No worries. Car's not real good, but I'm good."
Wieters won't go on DL
Orioles catcher Matt Wieters was out of the starting lineup after making a trip to have his sore right elbow examined by Dr. James Andrews.
Wieters flew roundtrip from Tampa to Pensacola, Fla., on Wednesday for the exam and was listed as a backup player for Wednesday night's game against Tampa Bay.
While it was determined that Wieters would avoid the disabled list, he likely will be limited to designated hitter for a while.
"It doesn't hurt him to hit at all either way," Orioles manager Buck Showalter said.

Let's not contract out the golf course, we tried that and it ended up costing the city lots of money. I like the geese but am happy to see less of them, giving a few lakes seems like a good trade off. I hope that the lake in front of Michaels will remain!

I've been playing Shoreline for years and its too bad the City is even going to consider pulling out and letting a contractor take over. The course has improved so much and I don't believe it can stay at those standards if a contractor comes in. The birds have always been a problem out there and finally they are addressing it. I have watched staff do everything to try and keep them off the greens and tees but nothing seems to work. I hope that the City realizes what a beautiful course they have and don't just give up on it.
Don't miss out on the discussion!

Silver interconnects
as reviewed by Robert H. Levi
I knew nothing about CRL Cables until I read Myles Astor's comments in his Writer's Choice Awards for 2007. They are sold direct and have been used by the recording industry for several years. Recently acquired by Harry Winston in 2006, he has reportedly improved the cable's performance, reduced the price so more could afford it, and upgraded its fit and finish. CRL also burns in the cables at the factory in Florida before shipping; a practice every high-end manufacturer should emulate. There are three models available. The one reviewed here is the Silver model which utilizes multiple solid core strands of copper with silver connectors. It sells for $1500 per meter in balanced configuration. By the way, no solder is used. All connectors are attached with high compression.
The Gold Series of interconnects appears to be a shotgun version of the Silver at almost double the cost. The Silver may be the sweetheart of the line. Anyway, I'll cut to the chase. Ladies and gentlemen let me introduce to you the new winner of the under $2000 interconnects sweepstakes: The CRL Silver interconnect. With the sweeping definition of Acrolink's designs, the giant sound staging of Cyberlight, and the black, black background of Nordost, the CRL Silver is a cable to be heard and owned. I was astounded and amazed when I replaced just one meter of the cable in my system. I'm not sure what I expected, but it wasn't best of class! Myles is 100% right. This stuff is ultra revealing and a delight to listen to.
Again, very Acrolink like… mountains of silky definition and sparkle and is perfection in a tube circuit. I hear air and purity like this with my references and other exotica. You can now have it at the under $2000 per meter price level for the first time. The CRLs are a breakthrough at the price by a wide margin.
Powerful and detailed, the mids are expansive and full. They are very neutral in this range and highly revealing. You'd better have top gear before considering these. Though just a tad thinner than the best, you'll be carried away by your involvement with the music. Plus, vocals are just right. I love sopranos with this cable. There may be a touch less richness exchanged for vividness though it's subtle. Midband ambience is lively and pronounced. Depth perspective is almost up to the best around.
The real story here is the quietude. In blackness of background, it is the best I've heard to date. It tops my references and everything else around I know of. Fantastic! Musical definition literally pops into the room. Macro dynamics are bold and tuneful. Micro dynamics are amazing. All of this occurs while the presentation is smooth as silk. Imaging is consistently outstanding. What a design!
Excellent, neutral, powerful, and detailed are adjectives from my notes. Also, super fast and swagger come to mind. The CRL Silver's are a touch less rich in the bass than the best with less wood on bass fiddles and the like. Imaging is again very exacting. Did I say fast? These cables operate at the speed of light. Even the Silversmith Palladiums can't outrun them. If you have multiple woofers of something over 10 inches in diameter, fasten your seat belts. These cables are amazing on classical, and astounding on jazz and rock.
You must order at least one meter to connect even gear sitting next to each other. The Silver is stiff and hard to work with. Also, if you are running solid state gear that is unforgiving and tuned to the edge, so to speak, the Silver's may not be for you. CRL has a generous try before you buy program, so do. I'd bet right now you will keep them. If you do, they have a ten year warranty. Meanwhile, I have their loudspeaker cables in the house so I will return to CRL soon, so stay tuned.
The CRL Silver interconnects' performance on all kinds of music is ear popping and delicious. Their sound staging and background blackness is stunning. Musical definition pops like the really super expensive cables and their dynamics excel. If you were going to push to the $1500 per meter cost, push for these! The CRL Silver interconnects are a breakthrough design and best of class. They are available only direct. Maybe that's how they do it? Very highly recommended. Thanks Myles! Robert H. Levi

The poem says:
"I was flying by and needed a rest...
What did I see but the lunch I love best!
So I took a few nibbles then went on my way.
I left you some pixie dust, enjoy your day!"
Your favorite sandwich
Pink icing (we used Betty Crocker cherry icing)
Quart-sized ziploc freezer baggie
colored sugar (any kind, for pixie dust)
Print and cut out Tinkerbell poem then tape to a toothpick (one for each sandwich). Make sandwiches then carefully cut out a half circle shape from one side. Put icing in baggie and snip a small piece of one corner. Pipe out "footprints" across the plate and sandwich. Sprinkle with colored sugar and place toothpick in sandwich. Serve and watch the giggles fly!:)
Notes: Little C, always the investigator, wondered why Tink left footprints when she can fly......
While I was thinking about that one, Big C saved the day and said, "She only gets so much pixie dust every day so they walk whenever they can to save it!". Nice job, Big C!

Giant Hard-on Collider
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
edit Giant Hadron Collider (GHC)
|This page was originally sporked from (Wikipedia).
The Giant Hadron Collider (GHC) is a particle accelerator complex intended to collide opposing beams of 70 TeV protons, extracted from the huffed souls of kittens. Its main purpose is to explore the validity and limitations of the Standard Model, the current theoretical picture for particle physics, which was proposed by This Guy during a bout of extended gout brought on by excessive huffing. This model is known to break down at a certain high energy level, especially when it is wet.
edit GHC v LHC
It is well recognised that the GHC is the product of creation by a higher force, known only as NASA. Any spurious rumours that the GHC is in any way connected with the 'evolution' of the LHC are mere speculation, and can at best be described as tish and fipsy.
For one thing they have entirely different purposes. Whilst the Lector Hannibal collider is for the most part concerned with the destruction of the known universe, the GHC is entirely dedicated to the advancement of science - a strange form of ritual dancing invented by the Greeks in the year 3 to ease their suffering at the hands of the Ming the Merciless.
"Science is in it's death throes, only a miracle can cure it now."
edit How the GHC works?
The workings of the GHC are suprisingly simple, no more complex than your average melon induction radio modulator, or even a cardboard.
edit The COHSICUCIP pump
The GHC is based on the workings of a Dyson brand vacuum cleaner crossed with a bilge pump. This highly complexifying pump is simply explained in the schematic on the left.
In the GHC several million of these large pumps are connected along a mass of blue tubing. When in action they create a magno-gravatational field which travels unidirectionally along the length of the GHC.
The Magno-Gravatational field will take some 30days to build up to operating power from the time it is initiated.
edit Intitiation
The GHC is due to begin operation in mid July of 2013. Many people are currently developing theories as to how they might best 'kick-start' the machine. Indeed this has become somewhat of a business for small entrepreneurial Physisticians and retired British Army generals. Although almost all the british army generals thus far have proposed bombing the Argintinians, it is not likely that this will begin the fluction necessary to start the machine. The most likely source of power necessary to begin the reaction will be provided by Murphy's law application for antigravitatory cats (better known as a 'buttered-cat engine')
edit Sustaining the Reaction
Unlike a power reactor, the GHC will not be conserving power that can be fed back into the production loop. Therefore, it will be necessary to have a constant flow of power source into the GHC.This will be achieved by a series of almost 200 kit-stations. These stations will be spotted at strategic locations around the GHC's length. Each station is maned by over 2 people with the onerous task of operating some 18 Kitten machines.
Each Kit-Station is fed by 3 silos which lie above ground (for ease of filling with fresh kittens). The silos process kittens onto the conveyor belt - they are then shot down 530 meters to the station below, where they will be inducted into the kitten machine.
THE KITTEN MACHINE This ingenious device allows for the automated extraction (see Huffing) of the kitten souls at an extrememly high rate. The souls, being a covaelant stable parody of the 111th atomic element's (Unununununiunium) Atomic Mass - as such it is is the exact opposite of the very spirtitual element, and evil. The heat given off by the lack of Atomic Mass generates of 70∞/λӨ³ Megawatts of power. This power drives each individual turbine up to speeds appraoching the Speed of Light - when all the turbines are at full potential the COHSICUCIP pumps can be initiated.
It is estimated that the entire GHC will require at least 4 Billion Kittens per hour to sustain it's working capability. Or in simple mathematical terms.
Failed to parse (lexing error): \frac{(41(Kittens)^8(\frac{Red Liquids}{3})^7-1.125(Inertia*Gravity@V/2))}{7*5³Nm/MW Joules/Hr}=2.234*15^9(detritus of kitten corpses)+.7625(energy super-J/millisecond)
using this self-explanatory equation, we can also prove that the level of happiness of the subject kittens (fuel) well exceeds the 2.4 minimum required by the local SPCA.
edit What the GHC will do for science.
The ultimate aim of the GHC is to create a confirmable Higgs Boson. It will do this by creating a beam of hard-light, which will be accelerated around the GHC at speeds appraoching 10-15km/h.
It was previously thought impossible to create the hard-light required for such a process, however by chance a young MIT student by the name of Hanz Remingtonitzing left a cube of ice out in the sunlight - to his suprise he found that this had absorbed the light which then became frozen within the cubic water-based structure which was reported to be hex-facial.
When the hard light spout (HLS) has made one full turn of the GHC, it will impact with gluons left behind it... somewhat like an incredibly long snake, made of light, colliding with it's own scales which fell off when it passed the first time.
When this collision occurs massive amounts of energy will be released at a level so small that it could not even be seen with a really large microscope. However thanks to advances in technology, we are now able to shrink scientists with very keen eyes to miniscule sizes. These scientists will be keeping a careful look out for the fabled Higgs Bosun.
The Higgs theory states that this atomic building block, known as 'The Bosun' or sometimes 'The Boson Schmee' sails on all the seven shells of each atom and bares a striking resemblance to 'actor' and child-disturber Orlando Bloom.
Hawaii There is some speculation by the nuts in Hawaii that the Boson will escape his own dimensional size, becoming a giant pirate. There is a high chance that Hawaii will be entirely destroyed by the GHC's reaction. However, this is ruled as being of little concern to the countries involved in the GHC's development, though they did acknowledge that Hawaii was quite a pretty place, and it will be a pity that it has to be destroyed.

Replying to my own post, as I fixed the problem by shutting down the Nook entirely and rebooting.
2. Re: Error dialog: user not activatedrclar Dec 8, 2012 7:54 PM (in response to dkreader)
No problem until this last update. Then same as described in other posts. I followed the exact directions as per the BN Chat post and it fixed my issue. I had tried to deactivate the Nook and then reactivate using the ADE mehtod through the program and it didn't work. Follow the BN Chat directions and it fixed the issue. Thanks for posting, finding the solution and letting me in on it.
Nice to know that I am not crazy and that I can now read my library books. THANKS!!!

Deleteing the two adobe folders on the nook and re-activating the device worked for me. Thank you for the help!
4. Re: Error dialog: user not activatedSilverStorm Dec 31, 2012 3:42 PM (in response to dkreader)
Deleting the two folders worked for me, but you would think after a year they would have built a fix into one of the softwares for this problem. *sigh* I'm not looking forward to doing this every time my nook updates.
5. Re: Error dialog: user not activatedneatsie Feb 11, 2013 12:55 PM (in response to dkreader)
I tried everything listed here including reinstalling ADE. I ultimately needed to erase & deregister my device and that worked. To do that go to Nook Setting/Device Info/Erase & Deregister Device and follow prompts. You will need your B&N login info and password and your Wifi password. All my B&N books were still on the device, you may just need to re-download (although I didn't have to). In any case, once I went back into ADE and copied the book I was able to read it.
Hope this helps those of you who are still having trouble (and save you wasted time on the phone).
6. Re: Error dialog: user not activatedcjreaderAL Mar 26, 2013 9:45 PM (in response to dkreader)
I just wanted to say thank you. I encountered the same problem and thanks to you, I can read the new book I had just downloaded right before I received the error message. I appreciate your post.
Happy Reading!!!

Please could any one do this for me in a very simple form.
l am just not getting it to work and so so angry and frustrated,
l feel like chucking it in and going back to books. it has taken me over 5 hours to get a book on my nook from the library and the first time away from the house its says error dialogue user not activated. Please can some one explain it really really simply. l tried to drag to delete and it wouldn't let me thanks in hope
8. Re: Error dialog: user not activated5ivedom May 22, 2013 2:30 PM (in response to tryinghardAP)
There's not really any easy way.
Firstly, you need to let us know your EXACT problem.
Are you trying to read a library book on your Nook?
Just download the Overdrive App from the store and read through that.
9. Re: Error dialog: user not activatedreaddgab Jun 9, 2013 12:05 PM (in response to dkreader)
Had this same problem with my library ebooks, and I tried restarting my Nook, reloading the book, etc. before trying the solution posted by TazzerGB, which worked. Thanks!
10. Re: Error dialog: user not activatedemu22 Jul 19, 2013 12:28 PM (in response to dkreader)
Hello all,
I just had to deal with this issue today. It was a nightmare. I have Mac, so maybe that makes it a bit different for me. I tried all the steps that were written on here several times, but it didn't work. Also, on my Mac, it never prompted me to authorize my Nook. I had to manually click on the Nook and click the button to authorize it. Anyway, I chatted with a BN representative and I had to unregister my Nook and then re-register it. It worked after that.
Hope that is helpful to someone who is struggling with the same problem I had!
11. Re: Error dialog: user not activatedalenaluvmilo Jul 21, 2013 2:13 PM (in response to dkreader)
did it work because i am trying that today ps how long did you leave it off
12. Re: Error dialog: user not activatedFinck Jul 15, 2014 2:11 PM (in response to dkreader)
Worked perfectly! Thank you so much! Goodbye world, hello books!
13. Re: Error dialog: user not activatedPuzzleMage Aug 16, 2014 11:00 AM (in response to dkreader)
Finally working. This is rediculous. A couple decades ago, plugging something new into your computer involved knowing which end to plug in first, how to carefully set up files just right, and whether things should be powered off or on. Nearly everything else nowadays knows how to detact the stuff it needs and set itself up with a couple of "OK, boss?" buttons and not much else. I can't figure out why the Nook isn't preinstalled with the software neccessary to download books directly.

On 24th June, SEBI restrained Mahendra Shah from trading or accessing the securities market and also restricted him from holding any managerial position in any listed company in India
Globus Corporation Ltd's managing director Mahendra C Shah has resigned from the company as per the order of Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), reports PTI.
On 24th June, SEBI restrained Shah from trading or accessing the securities market and also restricted him from holding any managerial position, including directorship or any other key position in any listed company in India, the aluminium company said in a filing to the Bombay Stock Exchange.
The company will appoint an additional director to fill the vacancy of managing director in tomorrow's board meeting, the filing added.
Faced with a manpower crisis due to neglect of human resource issues, the committee led by Dr AK Khandelwal has called for an urgent realignment of HR practices in public sector banks
The committee tasked with looking into the human resource (HR) issues of public sector banks (PSBs), led by the ex-chairman of Bank of Baroda, Dr AK Khandelwal, has proposed some sweeping changes in the way PSBs recruit, compensate, incentivise and plan for succession of employees under their fold.
Identifying certain gaping holes in the way HR issues are administered by PSBs, the Committee has made several recommendations to bring the banking system back on track in terms of manpower. PSBs seem to be facing a crisis of sorts, with almost half the top management cadre retiring in the next couple of years, with no identifiable talent to replace them. The system faces a high degree of attrition, with new recruits jumping on to better opportunities elsewhere for want of adequate compensation. On the whole, this situation has arisen out of the years of neglect in strengthening HR policies and practices.
Taking this into account, the Committee has sought to create a robust HR framework within PSBs. Informed sources told Moneylife, "If you allow a problem to accumulate, it shows up in a variety of ways. Since a lot of people are retiring at the same time and attrition is high, it has created a vacuum and a skill gap in the system in key areas like risk management, treasury and international banking. Therefore, HR issues have suddenly come to the centre-stage. I do believe that HR issues have become the new risk factor in the banking industry."
As the first step, the Committee is understood to have proposed that a board committee on HR should be formed in each bank. Banks having business worth Rs3 lakh crore and a staff of 30,000 will be required to appoint an executive director-HR on their board. The Committee has also recommended a monitoring committee in the ministry of finance, headed by the secretary, joint secretary and two HR experts to draw up the HR record of each bank and initiate a bank-wise reform process.
Among other things, the Committee wants banks to do away with the present practice of an industry-wide wage settlement. Instead, it has called for having wage settlement at the individual bank level, with each bank deciding its own wage structure depending on its profitability and capacity to pay. Our source says, "There are unique bank-specific problems that cannot be addressed with an industry-wide settlement. There is no linkage with capacity to pay. Since the settlement is done at the industry level, most of the initiative at the bank level gets lost."
The Committee has also suggested changes to the archaic recruitment criteria of PSBs. For clerical staff, the Committee has proposed that the minimum qualification should be graduation, instead of the current SSC requirement. Also, for the officer cadre, it has suggested that they should hold a banking diploma, apart from graduation. It has also recommended some changes to the test structure of PSBs, taking into account modern skills sets required for the banking function.
To ensure that banks have a proper succession framework in place, the Committee has proposed that a bank's board should do succession planning for each key leadership position by identifying three potential successors. The Committee has also provided for the setting up of a national level Banker's Leadership Development Institute, a greenfield project, which will be a big academy for developing leaders for the banking industry.
Apart from this, the Committee has sought changes in the welfare and reward provisions of PSBs. The Committee has asked that the ceiling for welfare contribution be raised to Rs40 crore from the present Rs15 crore and that 25% of the welfare contribution be directed towards retired staff.
To strengthen the presence of banks in rural and semi-urban areas, the Committee has provided that new recruits, especially clerks, be posted in rural areas for three years and in order to encourage them to move to rural areas, banks should provide them incentives in the form of faster promotion.
Money is a topic rarely spoken about in Indian households. The only time you may have heard the...

The menu trots the globe, stopping in Greece for chicken souvlaki ($14.95), Italy for three-cheese lasagna ($12.95), and Asia for vegetarian orange-ginger stir-fry ($13.95). Four types of poutine stick close to home ($8.95+), whereas philly-cheesesteak subs head south of the border ($10.95).
Joe's Food Emporium
Joe's Food Emporium boasts on its website that its menu has "everything you'll ever want to eat," and it's hardly an exaggeration. The menu spans countries as well as continents—though the kitchen prizes locally grown vegetables as well as healthful doses of extra-virgin olive oil and pure canola oil. North American starters of Cajun chicken and cheese quesadillas work their way up in longitude, eventually settling on poutines that can incorporate cheese curds, chili, or donair meat. Mediterranean recipes yield plates of falafel, pesto pizza, and seafood penne, and stir-fries toss veggies and curry tiger shrimp in flavorful Asian sauces. The selection of oven-baked subs is an atlas all its own, ranging from the hawaiian to the Old English, whose turkey, ham, mozzarella, and vegetables are served atop a page of the Charter of Cnut. Adults belly up to the old-fashioned wood bar to watch the game, whereas diners of all ages enjoy cheesecake and banana splits on the open patio.

text: LSB Industries, Inc. ("LSB" or the "Company") (NYSE: LXU), today announced that as a part of the Chemical Business hedging strategy to protect against rising natural gas prices, a subsidiary within our Chemical Business closed an acquisition of a working interest in certain natural gas properties at a cost of $49 million. The acquisition included an approximate 7.7% average working interest within the Marcellus Shale, located in Wyoming County, Pennsylvania. The purchase includes interests in 14 proved producing natural gas wells, 7 proved non-producing natural gas wells, and 36 proved undeveloped future drilling locations identified on the leasehold. We expect to spend $38 to $40 million from the expected cash flows from the producing wells for additional capital expenditures to fully develop our share of these leaseholds through 2015. Our Chemical Business considers this acquisition as a hedge against potential natural gas price increases in the future for a portion of our chemical plants' future natural gas feedstock requirements. The purchase price was funded by utilizing cash on hand. We are considering financing a portion of the acquisition price from a third party in the near term. In commenting on the acquisition, Jack E. Golsen, Board Chairman and CEO stated that "Our Chemical Business has the capacity at their Alabama and Oklahoma Facilities to consume over 12 million mcf of gas annually in the production of nitrogen products, including anhydrous ammonia and urea ammonium nitrate." He further stated, "This acquisition includes potential gas reserves equal to approximately 20% of our current annual natural gas requirements over the next 8 years at an estimated present value cost of approximately $2.30 per mcf, including development and operating costs." LSB is a manufacturing and marketing company. LSB's principal business activities consist of the manufacture and sale of commercial and residential climate control products, such as geothermal and water source heat pumps, hydronic fan coils and modular geothermal chillers, and large custom air handlers; and the manufacture and sale of chemical products for the agricultural, mining, and industrial markets.

"The Memory of War" Review
First Published: 08/12/99
"The Memory of War" at first seems to be a rehash of "Racing the Night". The exploration of a mysterious alien city is interrupted by the mysterious and violent death of one of the crew members. But this time, the enemy is something very different.
During this mission, Galen warns Gideon that the planet they are visiting is dangerous. However, in this case, Galen's enigmatic ways are just a front. He doesn't know why the planet is dangerous. He just knows that the techno-mages are afraid of it.
The ensuing story is fairly thin, but that is made up for by the surprise twist when the force behind the killings - the same force that wiped out the planet's population - is revealed. The story is backed up by wonderful characterizations and truly amazing scenery.
Peter Woodward has much to work with as Galen in this script, showing emotions ranging from fear to outrage, determination to vulnerability. We also learn that techno-mages are exactly what their name implies: they use technology, particularly cybernetic implants, to evoke their powers.
Carrie Dobro also has some good moments as Dureena. She is the only one who appreciates the beauty of the alien city while the rest of the crew are hard at work ransacking it.
Speaking of the city, this is some of the best effects work yet in Crusade. The city looks alien without looking bizarre. Perhaps the window panes are what subliminally make the viewer say this is an alien office building. It's nice to see a foreign landscape that has a sense of normalcy to it rather than being filled with temples.
"The Memory of War" is host to the one major continuity flaw brought on by the reordering of episodes. Joe Straczynski alluded to this in a June Usenet post. In this episode, Dr. Chambers invents a nanotechnology virus shield that the crew already used in "Patterns of the Soul". If I had seen this episode first, I probably wouldn't have been so critical of the nanotechnology in my earlier review.
My only real complaint about this episode is Tony Dow's direction of the action sequences. There were too many fast pans, some of which seemed intended to cover for poor effects sequences.
Overall, "The Memory of War" was an enjoyable episode from a series that deserves a second chance.

MUST READ: Help us help you!! Please read BEFORE posting in the E30 Section
This is especially for the newcomers to this forum, but it does apply to some of the established members too!
When asking a question about your car, please provide as much detail as possible. for example
Car: 320i Touring
Year: 1993
Vin number: xx00000
Euro / Jap / US New: Euro

This is not a rant... we are all happy to help anyone on here where we can . But please help us as well
Please also remember that diagnosing problems is hard on the internet, and members will tend to only think about it for less than a minute before posting, so the real answer may not come up straight away, if at all
and finally, as a general rule, if you have to ask beginner questions about a turbo install/engine conversion/gearbox conversion.. you are not ready to do this to your car. research, research, research. then when you think you're ready but still have a few questions .. research some more. only then ask questions. An answer to anything that falls into this catagory can be found on this site, as well as others.
I have to concur and if you are feeling it I bet mark,steve and others get it too.

Is knowing the VIN number necessary
Is showing my VIN number necessary for you to help me with my problem. I am good with following the rules and all but VIN number seems like were overdoing the identification.
All you need to provide is the last seven digits of the VIN. That can be used to find out your exact build date and what parts fit your specific car. It's not like you're posting your entire VIN.
Hope this is the right forum!!
I am having trouble removing the starter!! It is a 1985 325e with a manual transmission and it is a 6 cylinder. I removed everything I needed to, and the starter won't come out. I removed the 3 cables connecting to the starter, and I also removed the bracket holding the starter to the engine. I just can't get the starter out.
I see no mention of removing the two bolts holding it to the bellhousing........ :dunno:

Distributor timing m30
I have a European grey mkt 323i with an 80- something M30 motor in it. The distributor in on the drivers side and I was told from the guy I bought it from said its the original 1979 electronic distributor with bosch; if I'm using the right terms.
I just replaced the head gasket but not cant get it started. I was very careful about engine timing so I sure that is right. I tracked down the guy who built the this motor and he told me that if I replaced the timing belt, which I did then my distributor timing is probably off. I'm having a hard time finding detailed info on that and how to get it right.
I'm also concerned that my spark is yellow and not blue but it's seems strong enough to ignite.
Any pointers would be helpful!
The M30 uses a chain, not a belt.

By Capt. Olivia Cobiskey, 205th Infantry Brigade Public Affairs April 11, 2013
ATTERBURY-MUSCATATUCK TRAINING SITE - As deployments draw down and employment rates continue to fluctuate, First Army Division East is committed to helping Reserve and National Guard Soldiers face the challenge of returning to their civilian lives with financial and career planning.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics employment data, veterans who served in Iraq, Afghanistan, or both have an unemployment rate of 10.9 percent, more than three points higher than the national average of 7.8 for 2012. According to the Department of Human Resources at Atterbury-Muscatatuck, 35 percent of Soldiers demobilizing at the training site are unemployed.
"I think the greatest obstacle Soldiers face in today's job market is understanding and then subsequently communicating the benefits of their military skills to a civilian employer," said Lt. Col. Mary C. Shaw, commander of Director of Human Resources at Atterbury-Mascatatuck.
"Many soldiers have skills that are in demand, such as organizational skills, leadership qualities, and communications experience. However, a lot of soldiers believe their only skills are to shoot a weapon or perform guard duty and these are the soldiers who need the tools to translate their military experience into bankable civilian skills."
The newly-passed federal law requires the Army National Guard and Reserve component Soldiers to attend the Veteran's Opportunity to Work/Transition Assistance Program and adds seven hours of class time to mobilization training and two days to demobilization training. First Army Division East overseas all demobilization of Reserve Component Soldiers at Camp Atterbury Ind. As part of that demobilization, VOW/TAP information to assist Soldiers in finding employment.
First Army Division East commanders, at all levels, are dedicated to providing Soldiers and their Families with the quality of life commensurate with their service and sacrifice, said Col. John F. Dunleavy, commander of the 205th Infantry Brigade, First Army Division East, at Atterbury.
"VOW/TAP is an extremely important program. These Soldiers committed themselves to the service of their nation," said Dunleavy. "I think it is the least we can do to assist them as best we can as they transition back to their civilian careers."
Many Soldiers earn significantly more money while deployed giving them an opportunity to pay down debt and improve their credit score, said Penny White, a financial counselor with the Army Career and Alumni Program. According to Debt.org, a quarter of military personnel owe an excess of $10,000 in credit card debt. As part of the VOW/TAP training, Soldiers review and gain a better understanding of credit reports and creating budget.
Staff Sgt. Walter Butler, a well-driller with the Tennessee National Guard's 775th Engineering Detachment, from Jackson, Tenn., deploying to the Horn of Africa, said the extra time spent in the classroom is well worth it, particularly for the younger Soldiers.
"We (my family) struggled; it would have been good to have some of this training when we started our family in 1988," said Butler, a middle school principle in Collinwood, Tenn. "If we had some of these tools, I would have a little more money now; I'd be a little more comfortable.
"Hopefully this instruction will help them understand that they can control their finances."
According to Shaw, these programs mirror the Army Career and Alumni Program (ACAP) that has been in place in the active Army for more than 20 years.
"The VOW / TAP provide these soldiers with alternative ways to look at their experience and help them to put these skills into a resume or communicate them in an interview," Shaw said. "I spoke to an E-4 yesterday about his experience attending the three-day Department of Labor workshop. He responded that it was the best three day training he has ever received in the military and that it opened his eyes to how valuable his skills really are in the civilian workplace."
The program's emphasis on the returning Soldiers is to ensure that each one of them is provided with the personal care they need to successfully transition back to their family and civilian career. The three-day program provides them with resources to help look for employment or to start school or go back to school. They receive briefings from the Army Career and Alumni Program, Army Community Service, Army Continuing Education Service, Veteran's Affairs, and Workforce Development representatives.
Throughout the program, Soldiers receive materials and information on programs such as the Veterans Employment Initiative Task Force and the Secretary of the Army Transition Policy, which encourage civilian employers to employ veterans. Soldiers also receive training on how to build a competitive resume and to access numerous federal and state programs aimed at assisting soldiers with their transition out of active military service.
Soldiers also visit the website www.onetonline.org which helps them translate military skills, training, and experience into credentialing appropriate for civilian jobs.
Master Sgt. Sharla Stevens, the operations noncommissioned officer for the Indiana Agricultural Development Team that just returned from Afghanistan in April, said she thinks the training gave Soldiers confidence to apply for jobs that they might not otherwise.
"I think people sell themselves short," said Stevens, from Greenwood, Ind. "It's helpful to know there are people out there to help kick-start them in the right direction."
The 205th Infantry Brigade, part of First Army Division East, mobilizes, trains, validates and deploys Reserve Component units to support overseas military operations. Along with Reserve component units, the division's trainer/mentors prepare and deploy sailors and airmen, along with selected members of the interagency and intergovernmental departments, to provide trained and ready forces across a full-spectrum of operations to regional combatant commanders worldwide.

Australia's largest private medical services group,
Primary chief executive
Dr Bateman also said reduced funding to private healthcare outside hospitals had led to a drop in preventative tests, with cervical and prostate cancer tests declining by 7 per cent and 9 per cent in the 12 months to May this year, according to Medicare Australia.
His comments were echoed yesterday by
"It's the preventive healthcare that is down and suffering, and I think in the long run we will have more prostate cancer not being caught, more cancer of the cervix and things like that," Dr Bateman said.
"These are things that have taken us decades to get people to come along and actually have these tests."
Under pressure from declining national revenues and trying to claw a way back to surplus, the federal government has targeted health in its budget cuts because at more than $40 billion, it makes up between 25 and 30 per cent of the total budget.
A series of measures, including a $450 million reduction in pathology funding, $155 million in cuts to the general practitioners' incentives program and a $50 million decrease in Medicare rebates for cataract surgery, had helped the government cut more than $700 million from private health funding outside hospitals, Dr Bateman said. A spokeswoman for Health Minister
Dr Bateman said while cuts and reallocating funds was a "legitimate part of business" for the government, "what I see is they are actually reallocating it and losing the money and destroying what is a very efficient part of business".
He said the government's decision to cut funding from an already consolidated pathology sector and then deregulate collection centres would undo decades of work trying to increase efficiency. The operators are under pressure from the government's decision to deregulate the pathology collection centres sector, with the companies essentially forced to buy up more centres to retain market share.
"The pathology industry has suffered two successive cuts to Medicare rebates in 2008 and 2009, both of which were done with no consultation with industry and which were somewhat crippling to the industry given there haven't been rebate rises for at least 10 years," Dr Goldschmidt said.
"Then legislation to deregulate collection centres – again without consultation – added enormous cost imposts to all players and the industry has been disrupted in an unprecedented way as a result of the changes.
"It's created chaos in the market but hasn't improved competition in any way. Our own research of [more than 500] new centres already opened show little to no market share movement [which was the government's aim]."
Funding cuts in private health and increased co-payments have also led to a decline in visits to the doctor. Falls in GP visits in June marked the first time since 2004 that GP attendances were down for three consecutive months. Dr Bateman, Australia's biggest GP operator, said sustained funding cuts were threatening to destroy the general practitioner.
He said GPs' take-home income at the 150 practices Primary had acquired since last year's cuts had dropped by 5 per cent compared with a year earlier. In a scathing assessment of the government's health policy, Dr Bateman also attacked spending measures such as the GP super clinics and GP helpline as a "waste of money". He said the government, which has opened only four of the 31 GP super clinics promised at the last federal election, was spending between $6 million and $9 million to build and equip each clinic. Primary, which leases its large-scale clinics, spends about $3.1 million on each.

History and Predictions: OluKai Ho'olauleʻa
The seventh annual OluKai Ho'olauleʻa is the largest SUP event on Maui, with hundreds of local and international paddlers. And, for the past six years, some of the biggest names in standup paddling have taken to the eight-mile downwind run, known as 'the Maliko' to test their abilities and bump-run with Maui locals as well as legendary ocean athletes. If there's one thing that's certain about the Ho'olauleʻa SUP race, it's that past winners always return, and are always ready to defend their titles. And this weekend, after a few years of mediocre wind conditions for the event, it looks like the we'll have a great breeze. It'll make a great race even better.
From the first annual Ho'olauleʻa back in 2009, top ocean athletes like Dave Kalama and Andrea Moller have conquered the downwind course that runs from outside Maliko Gulch (just a few miles west of the infamous big wave break, Jaws) to Kanaha Beach Park. With the exception of Jamie Mitchell's decade of dominance at the Molokai-2-Oahu (M2O), we have yet to see another paddle athlete reign victorious year after year at a single event like the consecutive six-time Ho'olauleʻa champion, Andrea Moller. Each year, the Maui local from Brazil has smoked the competition, usually bettering her course record, and then returns the following day to win the OC1 race on the same stretch of open ocean. She's gone head-to-head with strong standup competitors like Theresa Felgate, 2012 M2O champion Talia Decoite and Devin Blish, but no female competitor at the annual OluKai Ho'olauleʻa has been able to touch the reigning champ. The only female athlete that we think may be able to match her is Sonni Honscheid, who is coming off a big second place finish at the Carolina Cup last weekend and is a top-notch downwind paddler (she did win M20 last year.
While Moller has dominated the women's side of Ho'olauleʻa each year, the men's side has seen a whole host of top-notch paddlers taking the podium. As we mentioned, at the first annual event legendary Hawaiian waterman Dave Kalama set the standard, taking the victory ahead of the shaper behind SIC Maui's revered shapes, Mark Raaphorst. Kalama returned in 2010 to defend his title, finishing third to Brazilian-turned-Maui-local Livio Menelau and second place Danny Ching (who came back to win the OC1 race the day following). Oahu-native and five-time M2O champ Kai Bartlett paddled to a victory at the 2011 Ho'o, ahead of 2010 defending champion, Menelau, and set a course record to top off his big win. All will be threats in this weekend's windy conditions.
By 2012, Maui's 'young guns' brought an extra edge to the competition, pushing the course time and the pack of past winners. Champion paddler and Maui local Connor Baxter became a force on the Ho'olauleʻa course, taking the coveted victory in 2012 ahead of World Champs Travis Grant and Ching. The year before last, Baxter came back with vengeance and sealed the repeat win with a dramatic dive across the finish line ahead of the legendary Kalama, and his rival, World Champion paddler Kai Lenny. Last year, Baxter made it a resounding three in a row. He's the definite favorite.
That said, Grant took a huge win at the Carolina Cup last weekend and has been second here the past two years in a row. He'll definitely be challenging Baxter tomorrow.
Rumor has it that Lenny's home and racing, so that could be interesting too, along with a host of extremely talented specialists like Jeremy Riggs and Travis Baptiste.
As we look forward to the seventh annual OluKai Ho'olauleʻa, we can tell it's going to be another historic year with crushing victories and upsets, and plenty of excitement for all. —Shari Coble

While off-shore excursions may provide the most authentic Asian flavors of the continent's many regions, Silk Harvest—a Celebrity Cruises specialty dining venue —offers our guests a genuine taste of the Orient, with signature dishes spanning Cantonese, Thai and Japanese favorites.
At Silk Harvest, the focus is on authenticity and freshness, which together help us create top-quality dishes from the Far East that our Captains Club and repeat guests will vouch for as some of the best at sea. What's more, many of the Silk Harvest staff were raised in the countries that inspired us and they love being able to showcase the cuisine they grew up eating and sharing with their own families.
There are many popular plates at Silk Harvest; however one that we receive many requests for is the Duck Red Curry, which is today's featured recipe on Catalyst.
Red Curry Duck (serves 6)
For the Duck:
1 whole Peking duck
Kosher salt (as needed)
Cracked black pepper (as needed)
Red Curry Sauce:
2 ounces peanut oil
2 tablespoons garlic cloves (minced)
1 teaspoon fresh gingerroot (minced)
1 piece lemongrass (finely sliced)
1 white onion (diced 1/4 inch)
4 ounces chicken stock
8 ounces coconut milk
1 tablespoon red curry paste
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 teaspoon Ajinomoto chicken powder
2 ounces palm sugar
2 kaffir-lime leaves
3 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
To create dish:
12 ounces red curry sauce
2 pounds duck meat (roasted, picked)
1 small can bamboo shoots (sliced)
6 baby bok choy (chopped)
6 pinches chili flakes (crushed)
1 fresh lime (cut into 6 wedges)
6 sprigs fresh cilantro
To prepare the duck…
> Preheat oven to 375° F (190° C).
> Season the duck with salt and pepper.
> Place duck on a roasting pan breast side up, with a drip tray on the bottom so the duck is not touching the pan, so that the fat can be collected.
> Roast in the pre-heated oven for 45 minutes; remove and let cool for about 10 minutes.
> Carve the meat from the duck and slice into 1/2-inch pieces.
Set aside.
Now to the curry…
> Heat oil in a wok pan until lightly smoking.
> Add the onions, minced ginger and lemongrass, and sauté very quickly until the onion is translucent.
> Add the garlic and continue to sauté (be careful not to burn the garlic!).
> Add the remaining of the ingredients and bring to a low simmer.
> Cook for 10 minutes to complete the sauce.
To finish the dish…
> Add sliced duck meat, boo chou and bamboo shoots into the curry sauce.
> Heat to boiling and simmer for five minutes.
> Place in the serving bowl and garnish with chili flakes, lime wedges and cilantro springs.
Traditionally served with jasmine rice.
We love hearing about your cruises with us… We also enjoy hearing how you continue the Celebrity experience once you're back home on shore. So please share pictures of you cooking and savoring our Silk Harvest Duck Red Curry.

Australians should be forging their own national identity and not copying the Americans, writes Kate Jennings.
When I visit Australia, I am always taken aback when I hear business people using American "value-added" business jargon. It's not a good fit - Australians have a great way with language. We're direct and laconic, everything that American business language isn't. It's as if an African-American hip-hop rapper suddenly started rhyming about thinking outside the box or pushing the envelope.
To state the blindingly obvious, Australians are not Americans, although Americans, romantically, like to think we are, and for our part we sometimes come off, unfortunately, as American wannabees.
We don't have to follow American business models as if they were handed down on a tablet. Our corporations don't have to be clones of American ones. The US might speak loudly and carry a big stick, but it doesn't have all the power. If you look at world foreign currency reserves that are held in US dollars, a huge chunk is held by east Asian governments. That's leverage, a big negotiating stick.
It would be unwise to copy the US model on a number of counts. Take this statement made not a year ago when Enron and Worldcom were headlines, but only a few weeks back. It's from the president of the North American Securities Administrators Association, and she was commenting on continuing investigations of companies: "My sense among regulators and prosecutors is that we're really rather surprised as to how much fraud is out there." Something is wrong, and it's not a few bad apples; it's systemic.
My next reason is anecdotal. I have many friends in corporations. Good company people who want only to do a job well, raise families, feel part of worthwhile enterprise. Very few of them wake up in the morning and go to work with a spring in their step. Instead, they are knocking back the tranquilliser Klonopin to get through days that are fraught with uncertainty and anxiety. (If I were the investing type, I would invest in the drug company that makes Klonopin.) Not only do my friends spend nearly all their waking hours on the job - Americans now work 200 hours a year more than they used to - meaning their quality of life is shot to pieces, but their membership in the middle classes is no longer a given.
Health care, education, housing, retirement - none of these can now be taken for granted. In other words, the American middle-class family is in trouble.
(A note: interestingly, Europeans work many fewer hours than their American counterparts but are just as productive.)
If you knew the disparaging comments I've heard from my old bosses about Australia, you'd be less prone to imitate or admire them. It goes something like this: not enough people, no scale to the markets; too far away; good tennis players, golfers and swimmers; end of discussion.
I like the idea of stakeholder capitalism, where all constituents - employees, vendors, pensioners, the community, as well as executive management and shareholders - have a say, a real say. We've seen stakeholder capitalism run into trouble in Japan and Germany but that doesn't disqualify it from being adapted in some form to Australian conditions and to suit our national psychology.
People are thinking about alternative models of capitalism. I can recommend the work of Ronald Dore, Michel Albert, Adrian Turner, and Jeff Madrick, for starters.
My job as a novelist is to explore human behaviour, the personal and public, to join intellect with emotion, in a way that non-fiction writers and documentarians can't. But I do know we are in a new century, a new millennium, and we're spinning our wheels, bogged to the axles. The time could not be more propitious, with the faults in the American system becoming obvious, for hard thinking about economic and financial structures, or for the thinking that has been done to make its way from theory to practice - and make its way quickly, not at snail's pace as is usually the case - all of which is possible in a country the size of Australia.
The time is ripe to be proudly and independently Australian, to adopt progressive capitalism as opposed to the aggressive, take-no-prisoners variety, to speak the language that fits us, if generations are to flower triumphantly.
New York-based Australian novelist Kate Jennings is the author of Moral Hazard and Snake, both published by Picador. This is an edited extract of her Sydney Institute Lecture, delivered last night.

Ancient Magnesium Minerals Gel - 8oz.
I see lots of "natural" products but this truly is. The gel is a natural ancient magnesium from sea beds in Europe and aloe vera. All I know is it it not greasy, smelly or slimmy. Silky smooth. No allergies. No odor. Natural and organic. And - my son uses too!
Lovely and smooth. I am using this as my new face cream! Been reading about Hyaluronic Acid - a naturally occurring substance that is in the skin. Very excited to report my results over a long term.Added 6 Years Ago from Naturalhealingtools

Press Office
TALLAHASSEE?The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) recently congratulated eight Florida communities for being awarded grants totaling $3 million from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The cities of Casselberry, Daytona Beach, Miami and South Daytona Beach; the counties of Clay, Escambia and Gadsden; as well as the Fort Pierce Redevelopment Agency each received grants to assess, clean up and redevelop brownfield sites within their communities.
?We are making a strong commitment to Florida?s economy through the redevelopment of brownfield sites,? said DEP Secretary Michael W. Sole. ?Together with the state?s efforts, this additional funding is cleaning up environmental contamination, building stronger communities, bringing new business opportunities into Florida?s cities and providing jobs for our residents.?
The eight Florida recipients were selected for federal funding from more than 697 national applicants based on community need and public involvement. Florida received the largest number of grant awards in the southeast. DEP assisted applicants with the grant process and will provide continued support to redevelop properties and return them to the community.
Grant recipients include:
Brownfields are properties where expansion, redevelopment or reuse may be complicated by the presence or potential presence of environmental pollution. State and federal brownfield redevelopment programs help communities revitalize properties environmentally, restore economic vitality and mitigate potential health risks to areas where brownfields exist.
DEP?s Brownfield Redevelopment program, which began in 1998, is one of the fastest growing programs in the nation with a steady annual increase in development projects. Today, DEP has 109 brownfield projects underway, an additional 34 brownfield projects that have completed cleanup and more than 244 designated brownfield areas. Based on economic and regulatory incentives, this program uses private funding to clean up and redevelop areas in Florida, create new job opportunities and enhance economic prospects.
For more information about Florida?s brownfields program: http://www.dep.state.fl.us/waste/categories/brownfields/default.htm.
