Durham NC (SPX) Nov 15, 2010
Leaks from carbon dioxide injected deep underground to help fight climate change could bubble up into drinking water aquifers near the surface, driving up levels of contaminants in the water tenfold or more in some places, according to a study by Duke University scientists.
Based on a year-long analysis of core samples from four drinking water aquifers, "We found the potential for contamination is real, but there are ways to avoid or reduce the risk," says Robert B. Jackson, Nicholas Professor of Global Environmental Change and professor of biology at Duke.
"Geologic criteria that we identified in the study can help identify locations around the country that should be monitored or avoided," he says. "By no means would all sites be susceptible to problems of water quality."
Storing carbon dioxide deep below Earth's surface, a process known as geosequestration, is part of a suite of new carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies being developed by governments and industries worldwide to reduce the amount of greenhouse gas emissions entering Earth's atmosphere.
The still-evolving technologies are designed to capture and compress CO2, emissions at their source - typically power plants and other industrial facilities - and transport the CO2 to locations where it can be injected far below the Earth's surface for long-term storage.
The U.S. Department of Energy, working with industry and academia, has begun the planning for at least seven regional CCS projects.
"The fear of drinking water contamination from CO2 leaks is one of several sticking points about CCS and has contributed to local opposition to it," says Jackson, who directs Duke's Center on Global Change.
"We examined the idea that if CO2 leaked out slowly from deep formations, where might it negatively impact freshwater aquifers near the surface, and why."
Jackson and his postdoctoral fellow Mark G. Little collected core samples from four freshwater aquifers around the nation that overlie potential CCS sites and incubated the samples in their lab at Duke for a year, with CO2 bubbling through them.
After a year's exposure to the CO2, analysis of the samples showed that "there are a number of potential sites where CO2 leaks drive contaminants up tenfold or more, in some cases to levels above the maximum contaminant loads set by the EPA for potable water," Jackson says.
Three key factors - solid-phase metal mobility, carbonate buffering capacity and electron exchanges in the overlying freshwater aquifer - were found to influence the risk of drinking water contamination from underground carbon leaks.
The study also identified four markers that scientists can use to test for early warnings of potential carbon dioxide leaks.
"Along with changes in carbonate concentration and acidity of the water, concentrations of manganese, iron and calcium could all be used as geochemical markers of a leak, as their concentration increase within two weeks of exposure to CO2," Jackson says.
The study was funded by the Department of Energy's National Energy Technology Laboratory and Duke's Center on Global Change.
The study appears in the online edition of the journal Environmental Science and Technology.

Former morning television producer Adam Boland has spoken candidly about his battle with depression and how, in the aftermath of the failed launch of Ten's revamped morning line-up Wake Up and Studio 10, he considered taking his own life.
"You start to question everything, including your own validity," Boland tells ABC TV's Australian Story. "And you end up feeling immensely trapped by your own mind and you just want to escape. I looked at the balcony, and I thought, 'here's a way you can do that right now if you want, just walk that way.'"
Instead, Boland went inside his apartment and roused his partner, Kenny Ang, from sleep. "There must have been something in the back of my head, a little light that flickered on, that just said, 'get control,'" says Boland. To his partner he simply said: "I think I need to go to a hospital."
The story ended up on the front page of newspapers across Australia. The seemingly final chapter of an emotional and very personal saga which had played itself out all too publicly: an exit lounge legal wrangle with Seven, and the unreasonable expectation that a single man could save a badly damaged network.
Boland acknowledges now that people saw his breakdown - the day after Wake Up and Studio 10 launched - as a cop out. "He must have not been happy with the shows," he says of how he imagined he was viewed. "There are always criticisms when the show launches. His ego couldn't handle that. First day ratings were terrible. He skips town."
The program revisits Boland's childhood and tracks his rise to prominence, first as a television news reporter, and later as a young producer who was handed breakfast television at a network which was, at the time, inescapably mired in second place. The result was the game-changing Sunrise.
"Adam ripped the pretence out of news and current affairs," says veteran news and current affairs executive Peter Meakin. "It became very personal. It became very conversational. Mel and Kochie, the people next door. Adam saw the program and the people who produced it as a family."
But for Boland the lines began to blur. "You got used to reading tags like wonder kid and boy genius, and as pleasing as that was for my ego, the reality is that was also rather crippling," he says. "If you start believing some of that stuff, you end up with very little sense of who you are. I already had that problem."
And within Seven, Meakin notes, Boland was professionally polarising. Loved by many, and yet, "some people [at Seven] couldn't abide him," Meakin says.
On the eve of launching Wake Up and Studio 10 at Ten, Boland tells Australian Story he slipped into a deep depression. "I felt I was back doing the very thing that had pretty much swallowed up all of my 20s," he says.
In January of this year, Boland announced publicly he was quitting television.
"I am not entirely sure who I am, everything I have done up until now has been entirely about television," he tells Australian Story. "I think that's meant I haven't been able to nurture friendships, I've ignored family, I have failed to engage on many levels people do. As I step out of television ... I don't know what I am stepping into."
You got used to reading tags like wonder kid and boy genius, and as pleasing as that was for my ego, the reality is that was also rather crippling
Boland tells the program he is "pretty confident my chapter of television is over."
Meakin, Boland's former mentor, colleague and friend, says that is a great shame. "He's one of the most talented people I've worked with. He [just] doesn't know when to stop. He doesn't have an off switch. If he could find an off switch, that would be his salvation."

Developing Leaders for a Changing World
The 10 CUNY Star Leadership Competencies
The following are brief descriptions of each leadership competency identified by the CUNY Star Model. The Malave Leadership Academy, and affiliated leadership programs, strive to provide educational and developmental opportunities for students to develop each of these competencies.
Understanding one's skills, knowledge, experience, and dispositions as an individual both personally and professionally with respect to leadership. Also the ability to promote the same in others.
Identity Development
Consciousness of one's own socio-cultural beliefs, values, and norms within multiple contexts (home, community, work, globally) and awareness of one's social location. Also recognizing leadership as a part of one's identity within each context.
Cultural Competency
The ongoing development of global perspectives, a multicultural worldview, an inclusive disposition, cross-cultural communications skills, and respect for persons perspectives based on socially constructed differences (race, class, gender, ethnicity, ability, religion, sexual identity, age, etc.).
Contextual Literacy
Knowledge and understanding of communities, hierarchies, influences, political landscapes and privileges relevant to one's individual, community and organizational contexts and how that relates to leadership efficacy.
Civic Engagement
Development of one's social consciousness demonstrated through responsive service and/or advocacy addressing issues of public concern and social justice.
Work-Life Balance
Development and promotion of a healthy balance of one's time, attention, and growth with respect to self, family, community, and career.
Community Building
Development of an inclusive, empowering and healthy environment within teams, groups and organizations.
Critical Engagement
The consistent employment of a critical lens on one's own actions and the collective actions within groups, communities and/or organization both internally and externally (locally and globally).
Applied Ethics
Consistency of, and between, one's moral compass and the group or organization's core values relative to operational contexts.
Professional Excellence
Exemplary depth of knowledge and ongoing learning within one's discipline and in leadership studies, as well as continued professional skills development.
*The "CUNY Star" is based on the work of the City University of New York (CUNY) Leadership Development Council (LDC) Committee on Best Practices and Curriculum Development in cooperation with the CUNY Leadership Academy (later named the Ernesto Malave Leadership Academy) and facilitator Catherine Wong (Boston College).
The model was built upon general concepts of Critical Pedagogy, Multicultural Education, Culturally Responsive Pedagogy, and a leadership development model presented by the Higher Education Research Institute (1996), in A Social Change Model of Leadership Development: Guidebook version III. College Park, MD: National Clearinghouse for Leadership Programs.

In the heights of passion, when the relationship is fresh and strong, confession of love pours easily from both parties. Then the sign that a man is in love with you is effortlessly deciphered. But when things changed: passion and romance is waning and what is left is grit, respect, tolerance, trust and all other relationship maintaining traits found in at-least six months and above relationship. At this stage love has lost its freshness, though still present but due to constant proximity it's restricted, almost forgotten, and the danger that your spouse may have lost his or her love is imminent. Projecting the state of love becomes a problem mostly to men. Males are endowed with the power of masking their feelings more than females. For this reason it is important to know the sign that a man is in love with you.
Love is a very beautiful feeling, and it is very important in all relationship. Unfortunately true love is absent in most relationship, it has become a scarce commodity because love due to its encompassing characteristics can be mistaken for many things. Example: lust, infatuation, romance, materialism, and what have you. So to avoid becoming disturbed about the absence of your husband enduring love: the relationship (marriage, platonic, business etc) must be founded on a solid foundation. This is what ensures that trust even in times when the feelings seem to be absence is unshaken. Then sign that a man is in love with you will not constitute an indelible challenge. If you are however disturbed about the state of your husband feelings below are simple signs that will either refute or confirm your doubts.
Sign That A Man Is In Love With You
1. Knowledge matters: Women tend to leave their brain in the clouds too long. They get overtly immersed with the euphoria of love to an extent that they develop blind eyes to a man's fault. Necessary knowledge about the man character is ignored, and this inhibits the learning process. During the good times, how does your man shows love to you? What are the unique things he does to you that shows love? Do you really know what love is? This knowledge if acquired in suitable dose would help one to identify a failing relationship because once he stops showing dose feelings it becomes a sign that he is no longer in love, but if he still shows the feeling, then it is an obvious indication that he is still in love. Example: compliments you when the occasion calls for it, still take you out on a date as he use to (though it may not be often, but still does), surprise you, still love your company: would rather spend a day off from work with you than friends, respects you, etc. These signs project a man's undeclared undying love more than words.
2. Occasional love declaration: Yes, it is established that there are times in relationship when love and romance will have been taken over by relationship sustaining emotions like: tolerance, security, patience, humility trust and so on. Inasmuch as these emotions are sustainable, it however should not take the place of love declaration. Love should never be absent in a relationship that is built on a solid foundation. A timely occasional declaration of love should surface at different strategic time of the relationship. Yes; feelings maybe doing a good job of projecting love. But failing to declare it robs the senses of joy that comes with hearing it. So orally affirming love shows a positive sign that a man is in love with you. Although it may not be often, it will get the job done.
3. If he picks an irritating habit. Sometimes a man could pick a major bad habit deliberately to frustrate his wife out of the relationship. This habit may not necessary point at a waning love. But if it is combined with the loss of feelings mentioned above then it is certain that he is actually deliberating on calling it quit except he does not know how to say it. But on the other hand if the man is working hard at changing a prevailing bad habit just to please you then this is a sign that a man is in love with you. Example trying to quit smoking, staying out late, more dedicated with helping out with the kids, and so on.
4. Thoughtful gestures. If he likes to throw in a surprise now and then like: buying small meaningful gifts now and then for you, picking children from school just to relieve you sometimes, dinner surprises, remembering important time in your life, loves to do things with you etc shows a sign that a man is in love with you.
Generally if your relationship has not lost its salt: still vibrant and has not lost elasticity in times of conflicts then, the relationship is tight. To achieve this type of relationship it is important that it was built on a solid foundation. The sign that a man is in love will not constitute a challenge.

California Employment Law
Have California Employment Law Questions? Ask a Lawyer.
Good morning Aditya,I'm Doug, and I'm very sorry to hear of your situation. My goal is to provide you with excellent service today.If you were an employee of the vendor, and not an independent contractor, the you can make a wage claim against the vendor with the CA department of Labor, and get paid that way.However, it sounds as though you may be an independent contractor and not an employee of any party, and if you were not an employee of the client, but a third party independent contractor, the employment law that protect employees do not apply to your situation.However, as you had a contractual agreement with the client that they would pay you based on your invoices for time and expense, and now that they have refused, you may sue them for breach of contract and collect the money that is owed you.If the amount owing you is less than $10,000, then you might consider filing a lawsuit against then in Small Claims Court for Breach of Contract. You will not need an attorney and you will get your trial in about one month.You may reply back to me using the Continue the Conversation or Reply to Expert link and I will be happy to continue to assist you until I am able to address your concerns, to your satisfaction. Please remember to rate my service to you when our communication is completed. I wish you the best in 2013,Doug
Hi Doug,
Thanks for your reply. I am not an independent but i am working for my own company which made a contract with the vendor and this vendor has a contract with Client.
So according to your answer ' I can sue the client'.
Can i (through my company) sue vendor or client even for the period for which my Time & Expense sheet has not been approved?
Good afternoon Aditya,Thank you for the additional information.As a person with your own company, you are one in the same as an independent contractor in terms of your legal rights and remedies. you must sue for breach of contract against the client that agreed to pay you and did not.The suit does not lie against your vendor if they were not responsible under the law to pay you. You do not get damages for the failure to timely pay either unless you have a written contractual agreement with the client which specifically gives you that right.---I am sorry. You may sue for the amount owed---nothing more.You may reply back to me using the Continue the Conversation or Reply to Expert link and I will be happy to continue to assist you until I am able to address your concerns, to your satisfaction. Please remember to rate my service to you when our communication is completed. I wish you the best in 2013,Doug
My company's contract is with the Vendor and not with the client. So in this case, as you suggested, i can sue Vendor for not paying about the work for which Time sheets were not approved. Right?
Can my company get paid for the time for which Time sheets were approved irrespective of the Vendor is paid by the client or not? Can i sue Vendor in this case also?
Thanks, XXXXX XXXXX replied all my questions. I guess this is the last one:
My company is based in Texas. Vendor is also based in TX.
Client is based in CA. So Labor laws for which state applies? Does it make any difference to your answers you replied above?
I have one more question based upon what your advice and the contract document between my company and the vendor. I have pasted few lines from the contract.
"Subcontractor shall be compensated for Services rendered under this Agreement as set forth in the Work Orders. Upon receipt of a satisfactory invoice and documentation, Expedien shall pay such invoice within thirty (30) days of acceptable invoice for such Services, subject to set off where the Client shall refuse to pay for any Services performed by Subcontractor personnel because of any issues related to the Subcontractor personnel. Other direct costs, as may be authorized in a Work Order, including authorized travel, shall be compensated at cost without profit, fee or other mark-up. All costs must be reasonable in nature and amount and subject to Expedien and Client approval. All travel costs must be incurred in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Client's Joint Travel Regulations (or Client's other travel requirement), as such define acceptable modes of transportation, allowable expenses and applicable per diem rates."
Q1.)So based upon above lines from the contract, can vendor hold the payment if client refuses to pay?
Q2.) According to contract i was supposed to get 2 weeks notice for my termination from the vendor, which they did not give. So is this a breach of contract? Can i compel vendor to pay me for my work because this is a breach of contract from their side?
No worries, please have a good night.

It was a thoroughly forgettable, innocuous event that happened in a flash exactly 10 years ago next Tuesday in Essex, an English county northeast of London. A camera snapped a shot of a speeding black BMW, prompting the mailing of a £60 fine to its owner of record, one Chris Huhne of south London.
Huhne at the time was happily married to Vicky Pryce, who would later be mentioned as a favorite to become the first female Chancellor of the Exchequer in Britain. They were a power couple. He would later win a seat in Parliament and ascend in 2010 to the cabinet of U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron.
But the dream blew up, in full view of all Britons, courtesy of a photographer's camera, a surreptitious tape recording, and a lust for status that caused both to turn on each other publicly in a drama fit for a script.
What happened that forced Huhne to quit the U.K. cabinet? Why did the educated and accomplished Pryce attempt to invoke what London's Guardian newspaper called the "archaic" defense of "marital coercion" in court? At several points in the decade-long waiting game that started with a speeding ticket, either one could have realized that their own behavior could doom both careers. But neither did.
The case had a twist that supercharged it. Huhne had collected earlier speeding tickets and even had his license suspended for using his cell phone in heavily congested London. This time he faced a 90-day driving ban. So he asked — or demanded — that his wife take the fall and claim she'd been at the wheel.
That was the end of it. There was no controversy until Huhne decided in early 2011 to take up with his bisexual former aide, who'd just left her girlfriend. Worse, the pair, who'd been running into the country for their affair while Pryce looked after the kids, was caught on camera by the always-hungry News of the World paper.
Huhne then decided to abruptly leave Pryce for a woman 14 years her junior. It was a stunning decision in a city stocked with readers that love a good scandal and politicians that fear them. Huhne had been elected to Parliament as a Liberal Democrat — the third party in Britain — in 2005. That would have left him nowhere by itself. But in 2010, Britons voted to replace the Labour Party, but gave neither the Conservatives nor the Liberal Democrats enough votes to form a government. So the two parties formed a coalition, and Huhne became Energy Secretary in a cabinet under Nick Clegg, deputy prime minister and the Liberal Democrats' leader.
Pryce, born in Greece and educated as an economist, was stunned, and left her job in the Cameron administration at No. 10 Downing Street. Cameron's insistence that the split was "entirely private" didn't hold up. Huhne had run as a "family values" candidate. Now he was nicknamed the Minister for Hypocrisy.
Observed the Daily Mail's Stephen Glover: "It is not, as some suggest, a small matter to ask a spouse to take your speeding points." The convenient white lie had engulfed Huhne and could land him in prison. After pleading guilty to a charge of "perverting the course of justice" he quit in February 2012, the first cabinet member to have been forced out by his plea in a criminal case.
But his biggest problem lurked at home. Pryce, still beside herself, played up the role of the spurned lover. Apparently wanting to expose Huhne in the ticket identity case, she taped him talking about the three penalty points she'd taken on his behalf. The tape soon wound up in the hands of two London Sunday papers. Police went to court and rounded them up soon enough.
The sympathy that had bathed Pryce was quickly evaporating as news of her campaign to retaliate against Huhne emerged. Nonetheless, she could count on the support of women's rights groups after she pled not guilty, claiming that she had been bullied and coerced by her husband into taking the fall for him.
The first trial ended in a hung jury last month. The next time, the prosecutor pushed ahead with his claim that Pryce's decision was entirely her own, with revenge a compelling motive. On Friday, the jury agreed, and she now faces four months to three years in prison.
It was an astonishing case, played out in a city that eats scandals like snacks. Huhne had become wealthy as a financial advisor. Now 58, he is a disgraced politician with a clouded future. Pryce, 60, was a six-figure economist who wrote a paper called "Greekonomics" predicting Greeks might hide Euro notes in their underwear if they had to exit the Eurozone.
The pair put five kids — three their own — in the turbulence of scandal, as well as their jobs. In 2003, when Huhne's BMW was clocked speeding, neither figured where the minor case could lead when mixed with the imperatives of a wealthy and politically connected lifestyle.
Neither Pryce nor Huhne saw such a scandal in their future. It grew in increments. Neither felt that at any given moment, their next unwise act would bring them down. But they fell because each failed to realize that the next step — fueled by lust or revenge — would force them down a path with no exit.
It was an act fit for fiction. Each could recover. But for now, the truth has bitten them both.

"Stop playing. Stop joking around," Jean-Gilles related Wednesday as to the reaction of teammates when he told them he would hold off on the NFL for his senior season in Athens.
Max Jean-Gilles joined Anderson and coach Mark Richt as Georgia's representatives Wednesday at Southeastern Conference football media days. The Miami native researched his position, and expected to hear more promising expectations from the pros as to where he'd be drafted.
"The key factor was the NFL committee," he said. "I turned my papers in, (and) wanted them to say first or second round, but it came back and said third or fourth. My position is overlooked in the draft. Guards don't get drafted as high."
Jean-Gilles has played tackle and guard at Georgia, and was eventually moved back to guard, seemingly his more natural position. But his athleticism, versatility and experience could easily lead him to a left tackle spot.
Regardless, any quarterback would feel safer with Jean-Gilles nearby. And he knows it. The first person Jean-Gilles called with the news of his return? Quarterback D.J. Shockley.
"I said, 'I'm blocking for you next year,'" related the 6-foot-4, 340-pounder.
Shockley's simple reply: "Thank you."
Indeed, the big Dog — considered by some as the top guard in the country this year — is back, and he's almost a little defensive of the questions about Shockley's ability to maintain what Georgia's offense has accomplished the past four years.
"They'll just have to wait and see him the first game," Jean-Gilles said.
You get the impression that it was that much easier for Jean-Gilles to come back with that challenge waiting.
"I thought he was going to leave," Shockley said. "I really want him to succeed."
And Jean-Gilles is almost in awe of Shockley for the patience he exhibited by staying at Georgia and waiting. And waiting. And waiting.
"That's what you want on your team," Jean-Gilles said. "All the stuff he's been through the last couple years, he's a better person than I am."
Heady praise from a veteran, But Jean-Gilles will remain calm, for he has one clear way to take his mind off any Saturday bummers: a wife. He's been married since September of 2002 to Maggie Joseph. She's a criminal justice student at the University of Tampa.
"We've known each other since 10th grade," Jean-Gilles said. "We see each other about every other month. She keeps me focused, helps me get rid of all the temptations. We talk all the time.
"She's my baby."
The veteran lineman admitted this hasn't been a memorable summer, considering the number of teammates or future teammates making off-field news in not-so-positive ways.
"It was the worst one ever," he said. "Seemed like week in, week out... somebody was getting in trouble."
So he's one of the Bulldogs trying to keep his teammates on something of a leash. Jean-Gilles said there have been team meetings and conversations.
"Coaches can't be with us every day," he said. "We need to hold each other accountable."
Getting the message through remains a sticking point.
"Sometimes it does," he said, almost with a sigh, "sometimes it doesn't."
He's got about five more months to strengthen his role as a disciplinarian. Should prepare him well for fatherhood.

Well into maturity, country star Lucinda Williams still brawls in bars. And her music, writes Nigel Williamson, just gets better.
"I've never understood people who make one or two great records when they start their careers and then that's the end of it," says Lucinda Williams. "Poets don't even get to be respected until they're into their 50s and they've honed their craft. It never occurred to me that I wasn't going to go on getting better."
And Williams should know for, at 50, she has just made what most critics agree is the record of her life.
We're sitting in a hotel in Austin, Texas, where she is sharing a bill with Willie Nelson at the South by Southwest festival. She is all rock'n'roll in black leather pants, a low-cut vest revealing a two-headed snake tattooed on her left arm and with dyed blonde hair. A white cowboy hat rests on the table, alongside empty beer bottles. It's easy to see why Mark Ellen, editor of the music and culture monthly Word, recently dubbed her "the female Keith Richards", and her music reflects a potent mix of influences from Bob Dylan to Loretta Lynn.
And yet Williams also boasts a phalanx of heavyweight intellectual admirers among the literary elite in the US. Two years ago, Annie Proulx, author of The Shipping News, told me that Williams was the best female songwriter she had ever heard. A Time magazine profile simply called her "America's greatest living songwriter", thus numbering Dylan, Tom Waits and Bruce Springsteen among her inferiors.
Bill Buford, former editor of Granta, was so enraptured that he spent two weeks following her around America and wrote a 15,000-word article for The New Yorker.
It is the paradox of the earthy and the literary that lies at the heart of Williams's appeal. Her lyrics are among the most poetic in contemporary music.
And yet many of her best songs drip with a raw sexuality. Right in Time, the opening track from her breakthrough 1998 Grammy-winning album, Car Wheels on a Gravel Road, found her lying on her back and "moaning at the ceiling". She was going to make a video, but her record company dropped the notion when she insisted on acting out the lyric.
"I feel brave about that stuff. I'm an older woman now and, hopefully, as you get older you become less self-conscious as an artist," she says.
One of the key influences on her youthful songwriting was hearing Leonard Cohen's Chelsea Hotel No. 2, in which he memorably described a woman - allegedly Janis Joplin - "giving me head on the unmade bed".
"I thought that line was so amazing and beautiful. Poets don't censor themselves, and all my favourite writers are like that. It's graphic, rather than pornographic. But it's beautiful, y'know? Everyone's always asking me about it, like it's something shocking. They say, 'Don't you feel embarrassed about exposing yourself like that?' And I say, 'Hell, no.'"
Williams's literary credentials are as impeccable as her rock'n'roll image. Her father, Miller Williams, is a poet and lecturer. When she was growing up in Lake Charles, Louisiana, he sat down every night after dinner and wrote a poem. From the earliest age she was used to the likes of Allen Ginsberg and Charles Bukowski visiting the family home, and her godfather is George Haley, brother of the author Alex Haley.
By the age of six she was writing her own poems and short stories. Before she was into her teens, she was listening to Pete Seeger and Woody Guthrie and playing her first tentative chords on the guitar.
Then, in 1965, she heard Dylan's Highway 61 Revisited. "That was a revelation because suddenly those two worlds that I was interested in came together: the folk music world and the literary world. It blew my mind forever."
In 1969, at the height of the Vietnam War, she was thrown out of high school for refusing to pledge allegiance to the flag. "To me, that was just normal. I had to do it. How could you not?" she recalls. "I was very involved in all the anti-Vietnam War and civil rights activity. It was in my family."
Her father's response to this interruption in her education was to give his daughter a reading list of 100 books, ranging from The Iliad to One Hundred Years of Solitude.
She devoured them all before she left home a year later, at 17, for the bars of New Orleans and a life as an itinerant musician. She spent much of the 1980s waitressing and working in a record store.
It took 20 years for her first four albums to be released. This was partly due to the inability of the record industry to recognise her talent. But the sporadic nature of her career also reflects her insistence on living life to the full. She is, she admits, "addicted to turmoil and chaos". "Everywhere I've ever lived, as soon as I've felt settled I've always had one foot out the door," she says.
She once claimed she could not write songs when she was in a steady relationship and that she had to wait for bad love to turn rotten. "The songs are all pretty autobiographical. I have to have been there in order to be able to write about it," she says.
Most of her boyfriends - if her songs are to be believed - have been handsome, freewheeling rogues. And most have been either bass players or drummers. The last was Billy Mercer, bassist in Ryan Adams's band, whom she was seeing until she moved to Los Angeles last year.
A mutual friend, who knew the couple well, described their relationship to me, shortly after they had split up. "They'd go out to a bar, get trashed and then fight. I mean, really fight, until they were tearing lumps out of each other and the police had to be called."
Williams admits that there has been an element of dysfunction in all her relationships. Otherwise, she says, she would still be in them. "I've never been in a happy, stable relationship. I don't even know what that's like. I'm either in some kind of chaotic, confusing relationship, or I've allowed someone to move into my life and lost myself in that. And then I don't write and I'm fighting like a wild animal to get out of this cage I feel I'm in. Because if I don't write, I might as well be dead."

Just wondering what I have to do when I have found something in the LDS
Family History Library Catalogue (online) that I would like to see.
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I haven't done this before.
Thanks in anticipation

Drawer Organizer
When your sock drawer is organized, it's easier to find a matching pair Find the socks or hosiery you need quickly and efficiently, without having to rummage through messy drawers. Sturdy plastic organizer strips interlock in seconds to arrange socks (in matching pairs!), pantyhose and other accessories so they're easily found within the thirty-two 4-1/4" x 4-1/2" compartments. 18-1/2" x 14-1/4" x 2-3/4" tall assembled; can be compressed or cut to fit smaller drawers.
I sooo love the versatile shelf space and clever storage. Crafted of poplar and poplar veneers, with burnt chesnut finish.Tags: home, furniture, storage, home decor, cabinets, shelves, drawers, storage chests, stepsAdded 9 Years Ago from Improvements

There are many media manager and i can't find best one for me ...
i would like it to have mymovies support and wok automatically like metabrowser or media center master does - so i put movie folder to monitored directory - with this name Star Trek (2009) [1080p, BluRay.1080p.x264.DTS-WiKi] and it then automatically creates specified files for xbmc and mymovies (well, media center browser can do this, but i can't specify files that i want to use with xbmc ie. only folder.jpg, no movie.tbm etc.) and i can't use its interface for tvshows. Do you know some alternative?
UPDATE: or some that downloads information for XBMC only, mymovies is not required, i will use two applications if needed.
which movie+tvsho manager?

That's awesome, great concept!
Interesting. They should all have to ride at least one wave under each "discipline".
awesome to see stewart & cunningham included as representatives of their respective disciplines. i also agree that it would be cool to see them all ride a wave or 2 in each style...mark cunningham is a pretty good stand up surfer from what i understand, & mike stewart is a damn fine bodysurfer.
a couple thoughts, though...why 2 bodyboard representatives? b/c it's an IBA event? why no longboard representation? tudor kills it out there on a longboard, as do many, many others. it would also be neat to see someone (like tudor or tyler warren) riding an alternative/midlength type board.
Good idea, it would be cool to see each rider outside their comfort zone on a different type(or no) board. Would love to see someone out there on a log. The 2 bodyboard representatives would make more sense if one was strictly dropknee, thats what I assumed Kainoa would be doing when I saw his name.
kainoa is listed as the SUP representative, & a good choice, too. jeff hubbard is the 2nd bodyboard guy. i also see now that they're all from hawaii, which is pretty cool.
I'm posting here to let it be known I was involved in a peaceful conversation regarding SUPs and bodyboards before the turds hit the turbine.

Alle-Kiski Valley musicians happy to share the blues in Vandergrift
"Heavy hitters" are what musician Fredericka Stover, aka Miss Freddye, calls those included in the lineup for the Casino Theatre's upcoming Night of Blues.
She is anticipating taking the stage with her fellow Alle-Kiski Valley musicians for a concert that will bring seven acts to the Casino as part of its Local Bandfest series.
"As a musician, as an artist and even as a spectator, it's always very exciting to work with and to hear and see these different musicians coming together," says the Harrison blues singer.
"They all have one common goal — let's get out there, let's have fun and let's bring the audience into what we're doing."
The show kicks off at the Vandergrift theater at 7:30 p.m. March 23. Proceeds from the concert go to the restoration and maintenance of the theater, which is more than 100 years old.
Miss Freddye is honored to be invited back to the Casino and to have an opportunity to help support it. "We'd like to have this building standing 100 years from now," she says.
As for her efforts, audiences can expect contemporary and traditional selections. "My whole thing is to entertain people and keep them interested in live music and blues," she says.
The show offers an excellent opportunity for aficionados and newcomers to the blues to enjoy a night out, according to John DiCola, lead singer of the Vandergrift-based band, The Hackers.
"It will be a good way for people who never really listened to the blues to get to hear what it's like and learn to appreciate it," he says. "They will get to hear some of the finest musicians in the Valley."
The Hackers lineup will include a few soul and blues songs from Muddy Waters, Joe Cocker and Southside Johnny.
Matt Ross of the Kiski Township-based Matt Ross Band describes the show as one that's like a "reunion or a party."
"We have performers of all ages and many styles of blues, so there's something for everyone in the audience," he says.
Dave Minda, returning to this year's blues show and bringing his Hombres du Jour band with him, will focus on modern blues this time around, playing songs from artists like Robert Cray, Joe Bonamassa and Robben Ford.
"And once again," he says, "we've got a song featuring the entire army of guitarists that we'll have at the Casino that night."
Mark "Fat Henry" Sproull of the Fat Henry Band is "absolutely" eager to participate in Saturday evening's show. Like Minda, he returns after performing a number of recent shows at the Casino, among them, the first blues concert.
"Last year's show was beyond question, the finest show I've even been involved in," he says.
"The audience can expect a wonderful variety of blues from different regions (such as) Chicago, Texas and the bayou with both traditional and more contemporary R&B styles," he says.
"Everyone in the audience will leave smiling."

MillenniumSportTechnologies Ragnarok unsponsored log
MillenniumSportTechnologies Ragnarok unsponsored log
Heres a little fun fact Ragnarok comes from old norse , which is now Sweden, Norway, which means the end of the world...its referring to the end of the world, kind of like Armageddon.
I dont know how to copy the pictures up , maybe a MST rep can come in and help me make it look better. for now heres the writeup
Alright I'm using this for energy coming into my competition. I'm four weeks out. This is a detailed log of the four weeks coming into the competition. This log is a heap of information in it , esp for the last four weeks.
This is a basic blueprint, some days will be higher or lower.Diet 300 protein, 100-150 carbs,100 fat. and I do a lower carb refeed day every week.
Training: DC maintenance training (its not Dc per say, I got this idea from Dante so I just call it Dc maintenance and its rest pausing.) Six days per week.
day 1. Biceps, forearms, cardio
day 2. Quads, abs, cardio
day 3. Shoulder's , triceps,cardio
day 4. hamstrings, calves, cardio
day 5. back width, back thickness, traps, cardio
day 6. chest, cardio
Ive been taking only one scivation cap before workout. I call them workouts because I'm not really training.Taking it easy because of my arm.
Took The Crushing punch Ragnarok today in about 20 oz of cold water.mmmm it was good! I don't understand how something could taste this good without any carbs.
*Thoughts on the effects of Ragnarok:::during workout I had good energy and I still have a lot of energy. I took some taurine afterward s to try and calm myself down and will take l-theanine in a second. might have to take in gaba. I don't take stims much and like I said I haven't felt this much artificial energy in a long time, which will be fine .
these last four weeks for cardio after training. i could do cardio now, I wont though. glad to know enhanced energy. Ragnarok does its job no doubt about it.
I have not done any of these exercises Im trying in eight months because of an injured elbow.
Today was Shoulders and triceps
High Incline bench press 25(on each side) 12-8-7 (27)(arm clicking on warmup...I changed form put elbow brace on and it wasn't bad.
window maker ..side lateral machine 80lbs- 20 x's
Decline close-grip bench 45 and 5=10-8-6(24)
scott triceps windowmaker 80 lbs- 20 x's (clicking it arm and feel something movement in arm)
cardio on bike 38 mins treadmill 8 minutes.
Water intake 1.25-1.5 gallons of water
Protein 275
carb 125(that's counting carbs in the cottege cheese and small stuff, I may lower carbs because of this, before cottage cheese it was 110)
fat 100
and I have energy left from the Ragnarok so I may just lower carbs more provided that I have the energy and not dizzy .
Pictures four weeks out.

today got in over a gallon of water. 1.25 at the most which is good since I got in 250 Protein. got about the same ratio of protein per lb of body weight to water, which is a brilliant formula to go by measure protein and water. I hope Im teaching everyone something they can take and apply in this log!

man did them carbs come in handy...
maybe a rep knowws its not really important ..just from a science perspective.today dosed Ragnorak after meal. which it says to dose before Ill play with it and I find after to be working better. even though it takes sense to dose before with the r- ala, vandyl sulfate, glycerol , wouldn't this be best before a meal? due to increased uptake of nutrients. I know I used to dose ala and vs before meals.. or does it really matter. maybe a rep can comment
anyways took a dose and got the energy kick(I had nice energy today)

protein 260
carbs 110
fat 105
water 1.50 gallons gallon and a half.
lots of veggies(cabbage and salad Im eating at least a half to a whole head of cabbage per day with the protein and fat meals fulfilling my stomach, cabbage goes down easy, in addition its great for you i3c)

Last night I took in cottage cheese and peanut butter before bed and just them carbs seemed to keep me awake. I might be wrong. I might be right.
Protein 280
carbs 80
fats 70
water gallon and a half maybe over (15 grams of l-glutamine before bed) than got up during the middle up night at got in another shake and 10 more grams of l-glut)
I might just go ahead and do this for the remainder of the prep. I know its surely not optimal as far as building muscle, with the super cardio,(190 beats per minute for 10-15 minutes gasping for breathe and my willingness to increase time). since I have more fat than I'd like at this point,I have to hit it harder than if I were already ready or close to it,otherwise,I could just cruise into the competition, that's not the case though. I'm gaining muscle esp on upper body from not training it for eight months.

I have a question. I'm not taking in anything after weight-training. i wait in till after cardio to take in post. Ive never ever done this in all my years of lifting (close to seven). I dont think it'll hurt much for a couple of weeks because I was taking in a shake and a piece of fruit post weight training and it doing cardio immediately after and it seemed to make cardio harder due to stomach digestion this stuff.
I like to do it all in one session because gym is far away and takes a good amount of gas and I have my energy in for the day to do it.
My answer is its fine as long as it's like this for a couple weeks, I mean Ive been doing this for years and the situation won't always be like this next time pre-contest.
If I like your answer better than mine I'll use it.

Smeton edit the links into you 1st post as pics. The little image button, 3rd from right. That link helps tho.
You Q&A has confused me, however I would suggest some BCAA or EAA mix during the weights & cardio to minimize catabolism, with some extra leucine.
I'd say take in as much protein post wo as you can, if it means only drinking half I'd do that. Depending on how long your cardio is, you might be losing hard earned muscle.
confused as to your question? I would say continue BCAA intra and post if thats what your asking?

FEC Hears Bloggers' Bid to Share Media ExemptionA revealing excerpt can be found in a Washington Post story Tuesday about bloggers and the FEC:
"Bloggers want it both ways," said Carol Darr, head of the Institute for Politics, Democracy and the Internet at George Washington University. "They want to preserve their rights as political activists, donors and even fundraisers -- activities regulated by campaign finance laws -- yet, at the same time, enjoy the broad exemptions from the campaign finance laws afforded to traditional journalists."There's a word for what this debate is about (freedom) and a simple way to end FEC-related conflicts (deregulate).

You have an 8 liter bucket full of milk and two empty buckets, one with a 5 liter volume and the other with a 3 liter volume. You have no means of measurement other than the buckets themselves, which are not calibrated.
How can you evenly distribute the milk into two portions of precisely 4 liters?

The student will notice in particular the stipple effect in the reproduction.
The stipple manner of engraving was a curious development of the art.
She wanted to know the difference between a mezzotint and a stipple print.
The land area is usually clearly distinguished from the water area by a tint or stipple.
The stripes carmine, shaded with the same; indigo in the darkest parts, or stipple with it.
Take another art, that of stipple engraving printed in colours.
This shows the stipple effect in the face and drapery, and a broken line effect in the background.
stipple, a mode of engraving by dots instead of lines, each dot when magnified showing a group of small ones.
But in the latter half of the century it was the practice to stipple it, so as to soften the edges and give it a granular texture.
Hugh Anderson, a Scot, did good line and stipple work in Philadelphia in the first quarter of the nineteenth century.
1670s, from Dutch stippelen "to make points," frequentative of stippen "to prick, speckle," from stip "a point," probably ultimately from PIE root *st(e)ig- "pointed" (see stick (v.)).
