Reviewed: W.
As mentioned yesterday, Sunday was my birthday and I had the pleasure of spending it in its entirety with Lady Trail, something that happens with less frequency during the school year [not complaining, it just is what it is], and we concluded it by seeing...W.
Odd choice for a birthday viewing? Not as odd as the year I saw From Hell. Now that was a life affirmer.
I don't know that I have anything to add to the discourse on the film that hasn't already been said. It seems to be a rather polarizing film, which is what obviously what Stone was going for. I will say this though: I was surprised how sympathetic the film was to him.
To explain, the promotional materials for the film all make it seem like you'll spend two hours pointing at the oaf muck up the country. Not surprisingly, these matters are rarely so clear. Put it like this, my first words out of the theatre to Lady Trail were, "Poor little fool." The movie doesn't portray Bush as some sort of clown, it paints him as a deeply flawed man who doesn't always exercise the best judgment, a condition exacerbated by the people he surrounded himself with, namely Karl Rove and Dick Cheney.
Also worth note is the lack of intrigue present in the film. This isn't like JFK or Nixon where Stone presented a healthy dose of speculation in the film. With the litany of books and reports on both sides that have trailed the Bush administration, most of the inflammatory scenes in the movie have been well documented by multiple sources, like his history of alcoholism and the lack of reliable intelligence before the Iraq invasion. It sort of leaves you wondering why you spent two hours watching things you already know about, if you've followed these things or have been an avid Daily Show watcher.
Finally, the acting must be commended, even if the actors don't always succeed. Thandie Newton is startingly good as Condoleeza Rice, but by the film's third act it almost seems like parody. Richard Dreyfuss as Dick Cheney nails the glowering menace of the VP, delivering a speech supporting the Iraq invasion that left me shaking my head in sadness that people running a country, let alone the most powerful one in the world, could think in such a fashion.
But the star is Josh Brolin, and he continues putting together a hell of an acting resume. His Bush is confident, delusional, contradictory, charismatic, infuriating, and a man who refuses to be easily categorized. I don't know if I can recommend seeing it in a theatre, but it's definitely worth a rental just to see his performance.
You might think you already know everything about the man, you may have already written your book on him. W. shows that, to borrow a phrase, you might think you know, but you have no idea.

There are two new features on this instrument which will be standard from now on with our tenor ukuleles. The first is that the nut has been replaced with a comb leading the strings over a nut fret. This assures that the action will be as low as possible at the nut end of the fingerboard. Another new feature is the tailpiece. Terminating the strings at the bridge causes way too many problems. Of course if you prefer the traditional nut and bridge arrangement, we can always do that too.

Seafood New Zealand Friday Update 3 March 2017
03 Mar 2017
Friday Update is Seafood New Zealand's weekly email from our Chief Executive.
Captain's Blog

Southern Buller's Albratrosses at colony. CREDIT: Alan Tennyson
Industry continues to support albatross research
The fishing industry is supporting research into a special albatross population in southern waters.
Funding from the Deepwater Group will assist a long term population study of the Southern Buller's Albatross on The Snares, the northernmost of New Zealand's Subantarctic islands, about 200 km south of Stewart Island.
The survey will be conducted in April and is a continuation of a sampling series begun in 1991.
Fishing activity has been claimed to be a major threat to the birds' survival but research results have confirmed this is not the case.
And the outlook for the species is positive, with a projected population increase.
The Southern Buller's is endemic to New Zealand waters and breeds only on The Snares and Solander Islands in western Foveaux Strait.
The species was listed by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature as "near threatened" and was deemed to be "at very high risk of direct fishing-related mortality within the EEZ".
A 10-year population projection, released by the Ministry for Primary Industries in March 2016, found that at the current demographic rates, incorporating risk assessment, adult survival estimates and breeding probabilities, the population is likely to increase by nearly 6 percent over that time period.
The historical threat from fishing also appears to have been overestimated.
"Based on the overall trend in the estimated population trajectory and key demographic rates from the base model, we believe that the fisheries risk to the viability of this population over the last 60 years appears to have been small," the report said.
Titled, The 2014 demographic assessment of the Snares Islands population of Southern Buller's albatroiss (Diomedea bulleri bullerir), the report was authored by D Fu and P Sagar of NIWA.
Studies of the population began as far back as 1948 when 159 breeding adults were banded.
The last recorded sighting of one of those birds was in 1993, when the bird would have been over 50 years old.
The population increased markedly, more than doubling between 1969 and 2002 but then levelled off to around 8000 breeding pairs on The Snares.
The Department of Conservation's annual survey of sea lion pup numbers on the Auckland Islands further to the south has also returned encouraging results.
Pup numbers have increased by 14 percent this year.
The risk to the animals from fishing activities has been reduced significantly by the adaptation of trawls to include large vents that allow sea lions that are following fish into the net to escape unharmed.
Sea lion pup increase great news
The Department of Conservation's annual survey results that show sea lion pup numbers on the Auckland Islands have increased this year by 14 percent have been welcomed by the seafood industry.
Chief Executive of Deepwater Group, George Clement, said the industry remains fully supportive of DOC's conservation work in the Subantarctic and of their monitoring of the sea lion populations in particular.
"Over the past decade, while some sea lion populations have increased in size, the Auckland Islands rookeries have shown concerning declines in pup numbers, principally caused by disease and by deaths due to starvation after falling into holes.
"Industry is committed to ensuring effective mitigation of any risks to sea lions by fishing, including the use of Sea Lion Exclusion Devices (SLED), regular training of crews on how to identify and mitigate the risks, and observers on board trawl vessels to audit performance and identify where further improvements could be made.

Moana New Zealand outraged by shark fin removal
Iwi owned fishing company Moana New Zealand is outraged that a dead shark with its fin removed has washed up on Onepoto Beach in the Hicks Bay.
CEO Carl Carrington says "We do not condone this sort of behaviour and it's utterly unacceptable. Although it is not illegal to remove the fin, that can only be done if it is landed with the trunk of the shark. Those are the rules.
"But let's also not assume it was a commercial fisherman because it's highly unlikely that it was. The market for shark fin is minimal and with little commercial benefit. It's hard to see why a commercial fisherman would undertake such a practice."
Thanks to on-board vessel monitoring systems, Moana New Zealand could immediately find out if they had any vessels in the area at the time.
And while there was one Moana New Zealand vessel in the area at the time, it was carrying a Ministry for Primary Industries observer and also has cameras on board. A request to view the footage has already been lodged.
"This is exactly why Moana New Zealand supports bringing greater transparency to the fishing industry with GPS vessel monitoring systems and cameras on vessels" says Carrington.

Kaikoura quake: Seabed life wiped out after 'catastrophic' mudslides
Newshub (February 27)
Last year's earthquake continues to bring dramatic changes, with the discovery of large underwater landslides in the Kaikoura Canyon.
A NIWA survey found some of them to be three times the size of those that continue to close roads along the coastline.
Scientists have been to the site twice since the November earthquake, observing large amounts of mud and debris that had wiped out all life.
The new seafloor was distinctly different from what was observed during a 2006 survey, which had established the canyon's mud floor as having one of the most diverse range of organisms in the world.
"It was about 100 times higher than anything reported anywhere else for that kind of seabed," NIWA marine ecologist Dr Dave Bowden said.

The battle for the Bluff oyster gets under
Southland Times (March 1)
Bluff oyster season is underway, bar it being a slower then hoped start.
A strong westerly slowed down harvesters on the first day of the season, with Barnes Wild Bluff Oyster manager Graeme Wright describing it as a trickle of oysters instead of a flood.
He estimated 4500 to 5000 had been harvested after the first day.
The strong wind had cut
skipper Bill Gold's day short at seven hours after it whipped through the Foveaux Strait.
"It wasn't very pleasant at all. The westerly started out OK, then just got steadily worse," Gold said.
He said they were hoping to get back out on Thursday, but that it would be dependent on the weather, which had been unpredictable of late.

King Salmon profits from increasing exports to the US
Stuff (March 1)
A jump in sales to fine dining restaurants in the US has boosted New Zealand King Salmon's half year results.
Net profit after tax was $8.7 million, up 52 percent on the comparable six months ending December 2015.
The result will see the company pay a fully imputed interim dividend of two cents a share.
Chief executive Grant Rosewarne said increased sales in the US to high end, retail outlets and restaurants, had helped drive exports up 19 percent.
"We sold 1200 tonnes to the USA [last year]. This year we will do considerably better than that," Rosewarne said.
The company also relaunched sales in to China with partner China Resources Ng Fung, which bought just under a 10 percent stake when King Salmon listed on the ASX and NZX last year.

Will big ocean fish cope in a warming world?
Stuff (March 1)
NIWA staff, along with a five member team from James Cook University in Australia, have been investigating the impact of global warming on kingfish.
The scientists have been looking into how increased CO2 levels will affect larger pelagic stocks at NIWA's $50 million marine science centre at Ruakaka.
Oceans are absorbing more atmospheric carbon dioxide, creating still largely unknown effects on sea life.
Professor Phil Munday said they are breeding kingfish in tanks to see how they react to warmer conditions, similar to those expected at the end of the century.
"Kingfish are important not just to commercial and recreational fishers in New Zealand and Australia; people throughout the Pacific rely on these fish for their daily sustenance," Munday said.

people are responsible for their thoughts and choices, aren't they?
People have free will, haven't they? Why then do people claim they had no choice?
What they really mean is that the other possibilities were less preferable.
In what regard depends on the convictions, beliefs and thoughts of the individual who made the choice.
Usually it means there was no other choice that would have been to their benefit, either to the same degree as the choice they made or at all.
If people have free will, people are responsibile for their own thoughts and choices.
Free will includes the ability to choose subconsciously as well as consciously. No matter what ruled in the choice made it is still part of the human being who made the choice or had the thought.
People are able to choose an outcome that is not to their benefit, not entirely to their own benefit, beneficial for their visions, turn out beneficial in the future, beneficial for loved ones, beneficial for society. On the other hand people can decide to let chance rule. In this case their decision to leave it to chance is the choice that makes them responsible for whatever this choice resulted in be it thought, choice or action.
Being aware of the choice made is not a necessity that is included in making a choice, since people consist of both subconsciousness and consciousness. Decisions are formed in subconsciousness which only informs one's consciousness of what is going on when the information is wanted or absolutely necessesary, otherwise all human minds would be stuck in contant dead lock by the comtemplation of the massive input that results in the decision. Since nobody can be completely aware of what is going on in their own subconscious mind, nobody is truely aware of the process itself, of the aspects that enter the process of the choice itself and/or all relevant aspets and the weight which the aspect ultimately had in the decision made.
People are able to think! People are able to make a choise!
People can direct both their thoughts and choices!
People are responsible for them, or aren't they?

When every thing we have has been taken away what do we have left that they cannot take away. Thats right CHOICE. No one can take that away. So if someone says "I didn't have a choice" they are confused. Its the only thing you truly own.
hmhm, some people use that excuse in court… a lot of young people use it while argueing with their parents… what it all comes down to is an expression of feeling helpless or better having felt helpless
Really sad.

Our very own Hanah Meikle is holding a Rave Bop in Venue One this Thursday, all the money goes to supporting the charity 'Go Help' in Mongolia. Tickets are £2 in advance and £3 on the door - http://www.facebook.com/#!/events/192212454218196/
See your lovely faces at the extra fun pool session tomorrow! In the British Isles, it is a tradition that women may propose marriage only on leap years. Supposedly, a 1288 law by Queen Margaret of Scotland (then age five and living in Norway), required that fines be levied if a marriage proposal was refused by the man; compensation ranged from a kiss to £1 to a silk gown, in order to soften the blow.

Acclaimed writer Philip Hoare visits the historic whale-hunting towns of New Bedford and Nantucket, wanders the streets of London and Liverpool in search of Melville's whaling inspiration, and swims with sperm whales in the middle of the Atlantic. Through the course of his journey he explores the troubled history of man and whale; traces the whale's cultural history from Jonah to Moby-Dick, Pinocchio to Free Willy; and seeks to discover why these strange and beautiful animals continue to exert such a powerful grip on our imagination.
A blend of the travel and nature writing in the tradition of Jonathan Raban and John McPhee, The Whale is a gripping voyage into the heart of Hoare's obsession—and ours.

Graphic Design Resource Company: 'Re-Nourish' Steps up its Environment friendly Solutions
by - Casey Nolan | 4 years ago
Comments [ 0 ]
I bet some of you have not heard or read about 'Re-Nourish' – and I don't blame you for that. 'Re-Nourish' is what I'd like to call a "sustainable graphic design resource; they come up with different ways to create stuff which is environment friendly. Full disclosure: Even I didn't know about these guys until a few days ago.
We don't get a lot of companies and people who are working, but also operating in a way so that their professional services are not damaging the environment. Think of all the industries and their waste material. Above all, such companies don't even know how to properly discard their toxic shit, which, in return, contributes to a disaster for animals and birds.
Okay, coming back to 'Re-Nourish' and its effort to revolutionize the paper industry. You know, paper is basically made after tons of trees are chopped down. The high timber consumption rate adds to scarcity of trees in forest among other things. Therefore, 'Re-Nourish' is one of those companies that are aiming create paper through alternate means.
Think of the entire movement as mandating a process to help everyone create artificial paper. This thing would not only save the woods, but also aid industries in creating something that can be recycled and doesn't have an impact on the environment in the long run. Got it?
Joshua Martin, Director of Environmental Paper Network, made a statement two years ago, "Sustainable graphics design is such a critical decision point in our society's consumption of paper. It is a crucial step for us to convince other companies to join us in this cause. We welcome anyone to join "Re-nourish's members list."
It looks like 'Re-Nourish' is still walking the talk after all this time. The company suggests that graphic designers, writers and publishing companies play a vital role in the world of paper purchasing. "If we want to change the way the paper is made, we want to convince graphic designers to alter their supply chain. Once they're looking for 'greener' sources of finding paper, we're on the right track." – said "Re-nourish" CEO.

Bumblebee is a protagonist? in the 2007 Michael Bay film, Transformers, and its sequels, Revenge of the Fallen, Dark of the Moon, and Age of Extinction.
- Gets the most screen time of all the Autobots
- He was previously voiced by Mark Ryan who voiced Jetfire and Lockdown in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and Transformers: Age of Extinction.
- Has no problem with two people fucking on top of him
- Somehow gains his voice back after losing his legs in an explosion
- Isn't a VW Beetle, which makes zero sense
- But it's okay, because he finds a GM vehicle to transform into conveniently
- Randomly doesn't have his voice again in the second movie
- Allows a Decepticon disguised as a human to get into his car seat despite knowing she was a robot
- Is somehow captured, in the span of one minute of movie time; and instead of fighting, just resigns himself to the fact that he is about to be executed
- Destroys Sentinel Prime's main pillar by...tackling it
- Never gains his voice back despite robots being revived all over the place all throughout the trilogy
- Still doesn't have his voice back in the fourth movie despite it being established that copying new vehicles automatically heals a Cybertronian's wounds
- He will be reprising his role once again in Transformers: The Last Knight and he will be given a leadership role.
- He will also get his own solo film in 2018
- His voice still won't work, most likely

Bus systems are integral to providing efficient public transport systems in cities due to their low implementation costs, flexible operations and easy scalability. The existing systems face various challenges within the State Transport Undertakings (STUs) and city bus agencies. Towards addressing this gap, Shakti is supporting WRI-India to create a forum comprising of STUs, city bus agencies and a few private bus operators to deliberate on key technical issues that hinder the development of city bus systems.
Tagged Under
Technology start-ups across the country have begun to aggregate privately-owned buses to provide "on-demand" transport services and can potentially help in meeting the unmet public transport demand. This policy brief reviews the regulatory amendments needed to introduce these services to complement the state-run city bus systems and not compete with them. It was presented at the first 'Talking Transit' workshop under this project and stakeholder feedback has been incorporated.
Indian cities currently tax public transport modes more than cars and two-wheelers. The nature and amount of existing tax structures for bus manufacturing, procurement and deployment prohibit the development of city bus systems. This report analyses barriers that exist within the tax structures in various states and proposes recommendations on the tax incentives required to promote city bus systems.
Shakti is supporting WRI-India to create a forum comprising of State Transport Undertakings (STUs), city bus agencies and a few private bus operators to deliberate on key technical issues that hinder the development of city bus systems.>>
India must progress its climate actions in harmony with achieving its development priorities. A wide spectrum of policy choices are available, however, their institutional, financial and technical implications as well as trade-offs and co-benefits need to be thoroughly evaluated and understood so that policymakers are able take informed decisions.>>
At Kigali, India displayed leadership and flexibility by announcing several important measures to phase down HFCs. Given this important development, Shakti is supporting several efforts to enable a more informed policy discourse on this transition.>>
Shakti supports efforts to promote cleaner technologies by brick makers and to enhance the market penetration of cleaner and resource efficient building materials.>>
A close tracking of international climate negotiations is essential to assess their implications for India. For this, Shakti supports activities to track international climate deliberations and inform decision makers on the actions that India should take to effectively deliver on its climate commitments.>>

Despite being summarily ousted after just 11 months of service and presiding over a 45-percent decline in the company's stock and strategic moves that have left many investors scratching their heads, he will be awarded a severance payment of $7.2 million. According to an SEC filing, he will also receive an annual bonus under the company's "Pay for Results" plan of $2.4 million. The company will accelerate the vesting of 156,000 shares of restricted stock with a value of $3.6 million and award Apotheker 424,000 of the "performance-based restricted stock units" that were part of his employment agreement. (Whether any payouts of those shares are made will depend on whether certain performance metrics are met.)
And that doesn't include other benefits the company will bestow on him. Apotheker will receive 18 months of medical and dental coverage. He will be reimbursed for reasonable legal fees and other costs needed to negotiate the severance agreement, be covered under HP's expatriate tax equalization program, and have his relocation expenses (including up to $300,000 for any loss on the sale of his California home!) paid back. HP is even footing the bill for the return airfare for Apotheker and his wife to France or Belgium. Au revoir, monsieur!
This is not, of course, a case of HP's board suddenly feeling generous. Apotheker's terms of severance were laid out in his employment contract from last September. He's also not the only one: When Carol Bartz was uncermoniously fired on Sept. 6, she walked away with a package that will top $10 million. CJ Fraleigh, the former CEO of Sara Lee's North American division, received $11.3 million after being forced to resign in September. And the CEO of home builder Beazer Homes, Ian McCarthy, got $5.2 million when he was terminated by the board in June.
The New York Times today looks into why such golden goodbyes continue to happen, despite increased regulation on executive pay and greater scrutiny of such outsized compensation by the SEC and activist shareholders. Perhaps investors have simply become accustomed to big payouts. Or maybe it's because the Obama administration's pay czar has moved on to other issues. Another possible reason: Regulators are focused on denying severance when a company is about to collapse, when it's an issue plagues companies of all stripes.
The story also proposes that perhaps the biggest reason is that companies don't focus enough on grooming successors, and are forced to lure in star CEOs with hefty sign-on bonuses and cushy backstops should things go wrong. But there's no "perhaps" here, in my opinion. There's no question that the reason we still have this problem is that when things go wrong, too many companies automatically turn to expensive outsiders.
All the regulation in the world won't fix what ails the problems with executive pay in Corporate America. The only way to truly change the system, I believe, is to get companies focused on grooming the talent they already have. A company whose leadership bench is so weak that they feel they must agree to pay $10 million to someone who fails has much bigger problems than just who the next CEO will be. Until boards have a strong succession plan in place, there's always a risk they'll find themselves having to overpay for an outsider.
Perhaps HP's board learned something this time. Meg Whitman, the former eBay CEO, gubernatorial candidate, and HP director-turned CEO, will be paid just $1 a year in salary, though she'll have the option to buy 1.9 million of the company's shares and be eligible for a target $2.4 million performance bonus. If for some reason the board decided to oust her too one day, her severance payment will equal 1.5 times (down from two times) her salary, plus an average of her bonus in preceding years, which should make any eyebrow-raising payouts less likely.

It was the best event. Not according to me; this comes from two former CEOs and one's wife (wow) and the former women's athletics director. One of my good friends, but not an easy lady to please. The best event in 35 or 50 years, depending on the source and how long they've been associated with our campus.
The decor of the room done by one of our own was awesome. Period. Handbuilt clock towers and lampposts. That is his gift. (I wish I had a better photo. The one above does not do the room justice.)
My gift (if I have one) was organizing the program itself, creating the publication, the meal, etc. and so forth. It worked well. Having Pat Summitt, the winningest coach of all time and our alumna as our closing speaker, did not hurt.
I recieved a handwritten note from our current CEO. If you can't read it, it says:
"I can see your smile now -- whew, a great success. Several folks who were in the east for a similar event recently said our was better -- that means you for the planning, guiding, carrying...to ensure we were covered. I was very proud last evening and I work on not being so, but this event was, so I am told, the most complicated, well done ever for (our campus). "
I received a little gift. Let me just say Cowboy's dirty feet won't be coming anywhere near this blankie. She practiced her speech on me in the powder room, ya'll! It's a little scary that jaded ole' me thinks this is so cool.
P.S. May I say I am SO glad it's over!

An emergency plumber becomes necessary when a drain, toilet or sewer pipe becomes clogged and unusable. Depending on the situation, the home's residents may be able to work around the problem until normal business hours, but that's not always the case. A clogged sewer pipe in particular usually must be addressed promptly. It means none of the drains or toilets can be safely used without further backing up of water and sewage into the basement or an upstairs drain. One individual may be able to avoid flushing a toilet overnight, but an entire family is likely to have problems with this strategy. If guests are staying at the house, the situation is even worse.
What other types of plumbing clogs constitute an emergency? In some instances, the main sewer line is OK but the toilet is completely plugged up and no amount of plunging resolves the problem. The clog is likely in the pipe between the commode and the sewer pipe. If this is the only toilet in the house and it must service more than one person, the home's residents will probably decide to call a company like All-Tex Boiler & Plumbing Services for emergency assistance. Even if there are two toilets, one fixture being out of commission can cause a relative hardship when numerous people live in the house or when guests are staying overnight. The house might have a master bathroom off the main bedroom, for example, and everyone else is expected to use the other bathroom.
A reader may wonder why there seems to be an emphasis on guests. That's because plumbers are accustomed to an increase in emergency calls when visitors are at the house. As a group, their busiest time of year for emergency situations is at Thanksgiving. An influx of visitors means more use of toilets and sinks. They might flush things they aren't supposed to, such as tampons and sanitary wipes. Those items can catch on tree roots growing into joints in the underground sewer pipe in the yard and begin to block flushed toilet paper and other items. After holiday meals, people may be inclined to drain grease into the sink, leading to a very stubborn clog.

I recieved the lamp with some broken glass on one edge. Overstock was fantastic to send a replacement right away. The next one also had some broken panes, but these would not be seen after it was hung, so I did not ask for another replacement. I think the packaging should be sturdier to protect them when they are shipped via delivery trucks). The light can be either flush mount as shown in the photo or hung lower on a chain included in the packaging. The instruction illustration shows a "clamshell" if hung with the chain, but there isn't another part to add to the assembly to complete this look (it wasn't in either of the boxes shiped so it may be an incorrect illustration). It is a beautiful fixture and gives off sufficient lighting with the 2 60-w bulbs. Perfect size for 12 ft x15 ft x8.5ft dining room.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? colors on site very close to actiual
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. very good quality
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? very accurate description

Orpingtons after being ordered by us Pullets, right? But you need Seramas! If you don't have any already.
And I know what you mean… I've started my breeding plan already. But I can't come up with a good excuse for hatching Houdini babies!! T.T

Why, oh why, after spending 2 hours trying to get it working, do I find the answer not 5 minutes after I send the email? It turns out the sound font was sampled at 44.1Khz, but I had qjackctl set to 48Khz. I reset qjackctl to 44.1Khz, restarted it, and the problem went away. In general, how do I determine the sample rate of a soundfont? :) Thank you. -pete

Luxembourg (SPX) Jul 02, 2008
Satlynx has announced the completion of a 300 site SCADA network for EDF Energy Networks in the UK. The network is part of a larger improvement programme to monitor and control electricity distribution in the South East of England.
In a project already lasting more than 2 years, EDF Energy Networks and Satlynx have been working together to validate the use of satellite technology for the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) application that is used to collect data and control their electricity distribution network.
Initially, the network was operated from Satlynx's state-of-the-art teleport and network operating centre located in Backnang, Germany. The early rollout was a success and Satlynx was called upon to design and build a 7.6m antenna and hub facility at an EDF Energy Networks site in England.
Construction was completed on time and the new hub and infrastructure came online at the end of 2007. Satlynx continue to maintain a fully redundant back-up system at their teleport in Germany whilst remotely managing the primary hub in the UK.
Implementing this network via satellite was essential as it enabled immediate coverage across the South East whilst giving EDF Energy Networks the option to extend the SCADA network to other new regions. The technology deployed utilises a TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) access scheme which shares the available bandwidth across hundreds and potentially thousands of sites, thereby giving a cost-effective solution.
This choice of technology is also highly scalable, allowing for growth in both number of sites and bandwidth, should the size of the network or the nature of the application change.
Mark Fiske, Operational Telecoms Manager for EDF Energy Networks said: "We are committed to the improvement of our infrastructure and the control of our networks is as important as the switching and distribution itself.
We chose satellite as a natural medium of transport for reliable control and monitoring of our network and we have not been disappointed from our experience of both the technical solution and in working with Satlynx."
Christian Stetter, VP Sales Satlynx, said: "The opportunity to work cooperatively with EDF Energy Networks has been both exciting and rewarding. We have taken a fundamental requirement through all stages of implementation to provide a fully functional and highly reliable system that will ensure EDF Energy Networks can continue to maintain and deliver a reliable and flexible electricity supply and distribution network".
"We have a very diverse customer base that uses satellite technology to implement a variety of applications, from gas station point-of-sale to government embassies and from commercial shipping to off-shore exploration. It is good to see another successful SCADA network for another satisfied Satlynx customer and on such a large scale".

In 1950, the first local television station, John Fetzer's WKZO, began transmitting into homes. The area also shared in the nation's 'cold war' fears, and the city built or designated fallout shelters, installed warning sirens and organized rehearsed disasters to prepare for possible emergencies. In 1957 and 1958 Kalamazoo was chosen as 'typical' of American cities and represented the nation in exhibits in both Great Britain and Germany, recognizing its similarities with other communities across the United States.
Kalamazoo also shared with the nation a growing racial unrest through the 1960s. Discontented with economic and social inequality, Kalamazoo's African-American leaders organized boycotts of Northside retailers over hiring practices and thousands marched downtown in the summer of 1963 protesting poverty and access to equal employment and housing. On December 19th of that year, Martin Luther King spoke at WMU's Read Fieldhouse urging a spirit of brotherhood between black and white, but by 1967 civil disobedience turned to rioting and hostility. In separate incidents in Kalamazoo's Northside and Downtown areas mob violence broke out, as well as at Central High School which housed the majority of the school district's black students compared to the predominately white Loy Norrix facility.
Meanwhile, peaceful upheaval was occurring in local government. Kalamazoo's first black City Commissioner, Arthur Washington Jr., was elected in 1959. A former head of the Kalamazoo NAACP, Washington served until 1966. Gilbert Bradley was elected the City's first black mayor in 1971 and in 1976 Robert Bobb was appointed the first black City Manager. The parallel drive for gender equality helped pave the way for Kalamazoo's first female Mayor, Caroline Ham, in 1981 and City Manager, Sheryl Sculley, in 1984.
On May 13, 1980 a tornado swept through downtown Kalamazoo damaging much in its path. Economic decline had already begun to ravage the community. Like many Midwestern cities so dependent on the post-war manufacturing boom, Kalamazoo struggled with the effects of increased unemployment combined with decreased revenue for both businesses and governments. As plant after plant boarded up or relocated, the City of Kalamazoo struggled to cope. In particular, the paper industry once prevalent along Portage Creek and the Kalamazoo River, all but disappeared from the area.
Globalization forced 'downsizing' and job losses at Upjohn, which had become the area's largest employer. The company started in Kalamazoo would eventually merge with Pfizer, then the world's largest pharmaceutical company. First of America bank was purchased by National City, an Ohio-based company. Global competition also caused great losses in the automotive industry, a bedrock of Michigan's economy. Like many others across the Midwest, the Fisher body Plant closed in 1992.

God, in His love, calls all the faithful to the
perfection of charity, through different states of life,
to help accomplish the salvation of the world. Everyone
must give a free and loving response to this call, so
that the dignity of humankind and the Will of God may
unite in harmony.
A religious vocation is a gratuitous gift from God, a
calling that is accepted and lived with generosity and
love by men and women who choose a religious
congregation as their "heritage in the land of the
living." Ps. 142:6
The Congregation of the Oblates to the Blessed Trinity
accepts Catholic women, ages 18-40 (exceptions can be
made with older women) who manifest a desire to
consecrate themselves to God, and who possess the
necessary aptitude to live the spirit of the
Congregation and dedicate themselves to its apostolate.
Formation consists in guiding and assisting the
candidates in the growth of human, spiritual and
religious values that contribute to the development of a
religious vocation.
The primary goal of religious formation is to form the
candidates in the life of Christ through an intimate
union with Him, as well as through the practice of
perfect charity as seen in the Gospels.
Formation has distinct stages grouped under two periods:
initial formation, which ends with the perpetual
profession, and ongoing formation, which embraces the
entire life of the religious.
The Postulancy is a school of life in which the
candidates live among the religious as in their own
family, in an atmosphere of spirituality, simplicity,
mutual respect and freedom.
The Postulancy is a period of preparation for the
Novitiate. Its duration is from six months to a year.
The Novitiate holds an indispensable place in formation
and in the entire religious life. In our Congregation
the novitiate lasts two years. The first year is known
as the canonical year. After a simple ceremony of
investiture, in the presence of the community, the
postulants become novices and begin the canonical year
which is designated as a period of intense spiritual
formation and study. During the second year of
Novitiate, the novices, as part of their formation, will
begin experiencing the ministry life of the Oblates
together with professed sisters.
The Juniorate is the period of temporary vows during
which the newly professed Sisters integrate themselves
further into the community of the Oblates to the Blessed
Trinity. The goal of the Juniorate is to continue to
perfect the general and special religious instruction
acquired during the Novitiate. It is also the time of
preparation for the total self-giving of the religious
to God through the profession of perpetual vows.
The period of temporary vows is from five to nine years.
In this stage of formation, the Sisters strive to deepen
and live their consecration to God while they continue
their doctrinal, professional and apostolic preparation.
Permanent Formation
The Congregation offers its members an ongoing
opportunity to grow and to form themselves in a
day-by-day oblation to Trinitarian Love. The Oblates, by
our very life, strengthen and vivify the Congregation
and its apostolate through our personal growth in our
consecration to God.
The Oblates do all that is possible to perfect our
spiritual life. We take advantage of all the means and
resources that the Church and the Congregation offer us
for our continuous formation. We will consider important
for the development of our religious life those
initiatives which engender a deepening of the spirit and
charism of the Congregation, of the values of the
apostolate and those of the consecrated life.

BARCELONA, Spain — A fire broke out in the garage of the Williams Formula One team Sunday following Pastor Maldonado's Spanish Grand Prix victory. Sixteen people were injured, one with severe burns.
The fire happened soon after Maldonado and the team took had taken its victory photo in front of the garage.
Williams team chief Frank Williams, who is a paraplegic, was rushed from his wheelchair as he was giving a celebratory speech. It was his team's first F1 victory in eight years and it coincided with his 70th birthday celebrations.
Maldonado was photographed running from the garage while carrying cousin Manuel — whose right leg was in a cast — on his back. Manuel Maldonado is shown holding Maldonado's Spanish GP trophy in his left hand as the pair rush to safety.
A black, acrid haze came flowing out of the British team's garage, filling the paddock and pit lane. Mechanics and track firefighters were quickly on the scene to put out the fire. An ambulance on the scene treated one person for what appeared to be smoke inhalation.
The person with serious burns was airlifted to a Barcelona hospital while five others were taken to a local hospital for smoke inhalation, Catalonia's regional government. Ten people were treated at the Catalunya Circuit for smoke inhalation before being released.
The Williams team said the person airlifted to hospital was one of its staff, and three others also received treatment.
F1 team Caterham said team employees were among those taken to the track medical center. One had a minor hand injury; three others had respiratory issues.
Williams driver Bruno Senna's car was torched by the blaze.
