SECRETARY KERRY: Mr. Ambassador, David, thank you very, very much. And thank you so much for your great leadership these past years. Xin chao, Vietnam. I'm very, very happy to be here and to be back. It's an honor for me to be here with so many people who've really been taking part in and contributing to the great transformation and the great success that is taking place here in Vietnam.
I'll just share a little bit of -- a little bit of nostalgia with you. When I first came back here around 1990, this was a very different country. The United States and Vietnam were still very stuck. There was an embargo, and we had not resolved difficult issues that remained from the war. Many of us dreamed of a time back then when we would think of Vietnam not in terms of war, but of only a country and the normal things that countries engage in. And I am proud and pleased to say that today, certainly for me, represents that moment.
The last time I was here was in the year 2000 with President Clinton when we came right after the normalization had taken place, and the embargo had been lifted some years earlier with President Bush, George Herbert Walker Bush. And a number of us -- Senator John McCain and myself -- were involved in that journey from the beginning. There were very difficult issues to still resolve. We had prisoner of war/missing in action issue which was felt deeply, as it should have been and was, by people all across America. And of course, there were issues here in Vietnam about Agent Orange and the residuals of the war.
I can't think of two countries that have worked harder, done more, and done better to try to bring themselves together and change history and change the future and provide a future for people which is now very, very different. There are still things to be achieved, things to be done. I'll say a few words about that. But I can remember when I touched down in Hanoi back then. I could still see all the craters from bombs. There was almost no motorbikes. Everything was a bicycle; very, very few cars. Not a stoplight worked in Hanoi at that point in time, and there were just a couple of hotels. It was a place that had been frozen in time.
No one can help but marvel at the modern Vietnam. What has taken place in just a little over 20 years is extraordinary. And so this is not a transformation that just happens by coincidence, may I say. It's a product of the commitment and the vision of a lot of people here in this room.
I want to thank David for his job as ambassador and the work that all of our embassy personnel and consular personnel, Foreign Service, Civil Service, local hires, third national country. Everybody joins together as a team and works very, very effectively to do things.
Our ties are growing stronger every day we continue to work. We have the educational exchanges that we talked about today. And I believe that, actually, David participated in not one but I think three educational exchange programs in Asia, just as an example of the background and depth that can help to contribute to these kinds of efforts.
It is, frankly, why the vision of educators and education has been so important to this transformation. And I just want to take a moment to say that I can't think of anyone who's done more to help make that happen than the combined team of Tom Vallely and Ben Wilkinson, who are leading Harvard's -- Harvard University's efforts here in Vietnam, and the Fulbright Economics Teaching Program, a program I was proud to first support as a senator. And we put it in place and it was built into the largest Fulbright program in the world. Today, I think it's the second-largest program in the world, and we've got to see if we can't make it the largest again if we keep working at it. But I want to thank Tom and Ben for all that they do to contribute to this transformation.
I also want to thank the American Chamber of Commerce, and the American Chamber of Commerce Vietnam and the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and industry have also made just a gigantic difference here. AmCham's experience in Vietnam has really ushered in a new era of cooperation for the bilateral trade agreement in 2001, to the WTO session in 2007, and now we are working on the TPP, Trans-Pacific Partnership. I'll say a word about it.
But just think about this for a minute: Our bilateral trade has grown 50-fold, 50 times since 1995, to more than $25 billion a year now, and we are on track to meet our target of doubling our U.S. exports to Vietnam in five years, which was the goal that President Obama set five years ago. Vietnam has the potential to become one of the United States' leading economic partners in the region, and we're going to continue to work at that.
Today, we're on the doorstep of another great transformation that could open more doors to opportunity, and it could make our partnership much more vibrant, and frankly, could make our markets a lot more energized and rewarding. What I'm talking about are the opportunities that would come from the Trans-Pacific Partnership from the high-standard trade pact that Vietnam and the United States are negotiating with 10 of our Pacific partners. The partnership's high standards would maintain the momentum that has been created for market reforms, for modernization, for regional integration that the Government of Vietnam has actually made a priority. It will also complement Vietnam's efforts to transform state-owned enterprises and important sectors of the economy like energy and banking, which will attract greater investment.
And today, I am happy to announce that we will provide an initial $4.2 million for USAID's Governance for Inclusive Growth. It's a program to help implement the Trans-Pacific Partnership. This is not aid. I want to make that clear. This is an investment, and it's an investment in broad-based and sustainable growth.
And I think this is just one more way that the United States wants to support Vietnam as it grows its own role in the global economy. And just think about it; you'll see it out in the streets walking around. Forty percent of the population here is younger than 25. I was thinking about it as I was driving in, watching all the motorbikes. And I said a lot of the people riding those motorbikes were eight, nine, and ten years old when I was last here, just to give you an example of growth and time passing.
To create high-paying jobs and economic opportunity, there are a number of essential things, and I want to say something about it. You need a free market. You need a free marketplace of ideas. People need to be able to express their thoughts. You need to be able to dare to fail. You need to be able to be creative. You need to be able to talk and promote new ideas about trade and development and creation of new products.
And the United States believes firmly, as we have seen from Slovenia all the way to South Korea, that building a society that is more open and more free is critical to a country's long-term strength and success. Vietnam has proven that greater openness is a great catalyst for a stronger and more prosperous society, and today Vietnam has an historic opportunity to prove that even further. A commitment to an open internet, to a more open society, to the rights of people to be able to exchange their ideas, to high-quality education, to a business environment that supports innovative companies, and to the protection of individual people's human rights and their ability to be able to join together, express their views -- all of these things create a more vibrant and a more powerful economy as well as a society. It strengthens a country; it doesn't weaken it. And the United States urges leaders here to embrace that possibility and to protect those rights.
American institutions of higher learning in Vietnam already provide some of the highest-quality education in the world, and I have long supported this program, the Fulbright Economics Teaching Program in Ho Chi Minh City, which has provided a huge number of Vietnamese officials in government now opportunities to study economic policy. And this exchange process is a wonderful way for people to see what the rest of the world is doing and bring back ideas to their own country, and not be afraid of change and of the possibilities of the future.
When I met with today's foreign minister of Vietnam in New York City -- actually, when I met him in Washington -- he came to meet me first in Washington -- the foreign minister handed me a photo. And I looked at the photo and I saw a young, black-haired, brown-haired John Kerry and a young foreign minister standing together outside of Tuft's Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, where I first met him on one of these exchanges 30 years ago or 20-whatever years ago.
That's how it works, folks. And now there are foreign ministers, prime ministers, environment ministers, finance ministers, presidents of countries all over the world who have shared their educational experience in a different place. I'm very pleased that the leadership of the Fulbright Economics Teaching Program is here today, and I look forward to working with the Vietnamese Government to establish a Fulbright University of Vietnam in the near future.
We also see a lot of innovative American companies here, and I had a chance to meet with a number of you who are engaged in entrepreneurial activity. Chad Ovel here today from AA Corporation, which has helped to introduce sustainable forestry to Vietnam and he's helped to show that we don't have to choose between being pro-environment and pro-economic; they go hand in hand, and the future will demand that they go hand in hand. The success of Sherry Boger at Intel and Khoa Pham at Microsoft highlights how high standards for intellectual property help to make innovation and job creation possible.
And we just did a wonderful signing ceremony in there with General Electric. General Electric is another American company that is benefitting from growing economic ties but also helping Vietnam to grow at the same time. And GE signed a deal with Vietnam Airlines back in October to sell this country's flag carrier 1.7 billion in aircraft engines for the Boeing 787 aircraft. And a few minutes ago, as some of you saw, we just signed an agreement worth approximately $94 million for the Cong Le company to provide a second tranche of turbines for a signature wind farm project in Bac Lieu province. This project, with financing that comes from the U.S. Import-Export Bank and the Vietnam Development Bank, will help meet Vietnam's growing demand for electricity, but it does so bringing clean power generation to the Mekong Delta and can set an example for the ways in which the new energy paradigm can be defined.
So whether -- here in Vietnam, whether we are talking about our commitment to economic exchange, greater educational exchange, or our support for young entrepreneurs and a cleaner environment, I'm proud that the United States is putting a full complement of our diplomatic tools to work. And it's clear that the partnership between Vietnam and the United States is stronger than ever, and most exciting, I am convinced we're only just beginning. This is the beginning, and there are just enormous possibilities ahead of us. With the continued commitment of all of you in this room and your partners across the country, I am absolutely convinced the bonds between the United States and Vietnam can be the pillars of much greater prosperity and of a shared prosperity for decades to come.
And I'll tell you something. Years ago, that vision we all had that we wanted to be able to think of Vietnam -- when we said the word "Vietnam," for years and years you'd say, "Vietnam," and wow, you just thought about a war. And a lot of us didn't want to do that. Now you say the word "Vietnam" and you think about a country and you think about a very changed playing field where this is one of the growing, contributing, transforming nations of the world. And I think the possibilities for the future are just gigantic. So with the right focus on the openness and freedom of the society, with the right respect for people and their rights, and with the right focus on growth and education, there is no question in my mind that all of that energy and all of that effort invested in trying to set this new direction is going to pay off big-time.
So it's my honor to be here. Thank you very much, all of you, for joining in this. And thank you particularly to the entrepreneurs who are the ones really making this difference on the ground. It's great to be with you. Thank you. (Applause.)

Helen Codere described the changes brought by European influences and theorized that the potlatch was a form of competition that effectively replaced warfare within 20 years of European contact in her published Ph.D dissertation Fighting with Property: A Study of Kwakiutl Potlatching and Warfare, 1792-1930 (1950). A graduate of University of Minnesota and Columbia University, Codere continued publishing about Kwakiutl society and history in academic journals for another ten years, dividing the Kwakiutl realm into Pre-Contact (1770-1849), Potlatch (1849-1921) and Post-Potlatch (1921-1955) periods. Born in Winnipeg in 1917, Codere moved with her parents to the United States in 1919 and became a naturalized citizen in 1924. In 1959-1960 she conducted anthropological field work in British Columbia and Rwanda. In 1966 she edited an edition of Kwakiutl Ethnography by Franz Boas.

Shadows back. They were gonna plan their attack on Dumbledore…
"What is a fucken faggots biggest weakness?" asked Shadow since he missed their talk already.
"Its gay anal surf," answored Dally, "if they don't take garyatric pills then if we put enough water in their ass their intenstines and stomach wil leak out…"
"It is a slow painful dead," Sasuke continued…
"Because it will make youre eyes fall into your tonstils and it all falls out at the bottom," Link finished.
"Oh is that because their asshoes are all loosened out from the sex??" Shadow asked. Link noddd. Link bachelors from college so he knew about priest. Sasuke was also a healer but not unlike as much as Link.
"So how ae we going to get that much water in his ass?" Shadow asked "We don't have enough receptickles to put them in…"
"Platinom Billy has the power to shoot that out of his hans," Lank expend more. "He little red and then it just kind of goes from there…"
They all took deep breathes before kicking down the dore with a mighty PUSS and where there was supoxxed to be Dumbleore there was only Haggid with his back face to the crowd in a reclining chaira with the TV playing "Spin the Wheel of Excitement" ".
"WHERE THE FUCK IS DUMGBLEDORE" howeled Billy, he was losing love for the world and they started tumoring back into Edward and Hiei.. they knew it was a trap.
Edwad and Hiei were too toirtle from the evolution and laid on the dirty floor while Shadow spun the chair around to deal a DEAD HAGRID. There was wands coming out of all the sausages of his body …
"OH JESAS", gasped Sasuke he has a weak stomach and pubed all over the already dead corpes. "WHO WOULD DO SUCH A THONG"
Just then Axle came out from under the table… and turned mack into Mystiqeu!
"MYSTIQUE!" Hiei said he hed a venditto against her for not giving him those powers…
"Yes it is I," she smocked, "You really think you would get aware that easy?? DYMBLEDORE AND I ARE WOKING TOGETHER NOW!! HAHAHAHA!"
"YOU FUCKING BITCHASS WHORE" Hiei swore and he charged at her full blast but she turned into quickly Dally and he couldn't do it… he stoped because he loved her… even if he did cheetah on her.
"I cant do it…" he admittoed… "But if Dally knew hat you were doing she would be TURNING IN HER GRAVE!"
"I don't fucking give a Christ about Dally!" she laughed "She has the powers and you don't and Dumbledore and I are going to RAPE DRACO."
"SHIT" explained Link "We did loose him… WHERE IS THE HELL IS HE???"
"WE TAKE HIM TO AZCABIN" she said and then with a bluff fof wind she man a torpedo and flew out exploding the building. "WE NEED TO GET OUT OF THE FIRE" they shouted and dived out…
Sasuke, Hiei and Link maid it out but when they turned they saw the burnging ashes of Shadow trying to crawl out of the carpet… he was holdin on for dear lite but the flames endulged him, taking him deeper to death…
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Link tried to run after him but they hallowed him back…
They went up to Dalla's room in the hospital… she was sketching agun this time a picture of Shadow. "Oh hello," she squirted, "Shadow sung me the nicest song today."
"Dally…" Hiei started… "We have bad news… something has happened…"
Again the whole school could hear the scream thin time in angus.

Why do my forms keep coming up with data from the previous person when using it from the same computer?Asked by email@example.com on May 06, 2014 at 08:08 PM
I use a few forms as application forms as part of induction (on a assigned induction only computer)
however when im opening it for a new person the data from the previous person is populated in the fields so i have to delete the brouser history each time
JotForm Support
Upon checking your form "SPF01.1 EMPLOYEE APPLICATION FORM", I found that the "Auto Fill" setting of this form is enabled. The saves the data in browser as soon as it is input. Please be noted that the input data will always be there on browser untill the form is submitted or the browser history is cleared.
I would suggest you to disable the "Auto Fill" settings and that should solve your problem. The following guide should help you: http://www.jotform.com/help/227-How-to-Enable-Auto-Fill-Feature-Save-Form-Entries-to-Continue-Later

Author | Pritie S Jadhav | Friday, Oct 14,2005 8:22 AM
More and more brands are latching on to the increasing popularity of mobile games to increase their brand value. Today, mobile gaming has extended its mobility to all age groups. The latest to join the bandwagon is Kellogg's Chocos, which has joined hands with Mobile2win to launch Coco Racer – the latest sensation in mobile games.
Kellogg's Chocos, the breakfast cereal brand, is all about 'chocolatey fun and adventure' led by Coco, the monkey, and his gang. Kellogg's had been looking to provide its consumers with an exciting game, especially since gaming is now a very popular pastime with kids.
According to K Venkatachalam, Managing Director, Kellogg India, "Kellogg's Chocos is all about fun and adventure. Our constant endeavour is to innovate in the fun and adventure options that we provide our consumers. These adventures are opportunities for kids to be a part of Coco and gang (Chocos characters). Kids also help Coco and gang in overcoming adversity. Coco Racer has helped our target group further identify with the characters through the gaming medium that they like. This game has shown great promise with a large number of downloads."
Mobile2Win (M2W) conceptualised and developed the Coco Racer for Kellogg's Chocos. The Coco Racer is an exciting racing game set in a jungle and features all the Kellogg's Chocos' characters. The user plays as Coco the monkey, racing against the villain, Crafty Croc, for Kellogg's Chocos treasure. Coco comes across many obstacles along the way, including Crafty's henchmen, Gorillas. Coco is aided by his friends in the jungle, who help him win the race.
Children will identify with this game as it features characters that they are familiar with, and being a racing game, it will tempt them to play it repeatedly.
Aji Joseph, Head-Sales & Business Development, Mobile2win, said, "We are excited to roll out yet another innovation for Kellogg's. The car racing game is a perfect fit with the ongoing promotion with Hot Wheels. The game has been designed with the core TG (6-12 year olds) and their dream world of Coco and his adventures. It's great fun to see kids clicking and enjoying the Coco Racer game on their handsets."
Coco Racer has shown great results with a large number of downloads within the short span since its launch. The game is being promoted on the Kellogg's Chocos cartons and TVCs. To get the game, users have to send an SMS to 8558 and receive a WAP link to download the game via GPRS.

Bleach babes rejoice!
For years people have attacked their hair with bleach in the hope they will achieve ice-white levels of blonde. While most would certainly have hit the dizzy heights of peroxide fun, the damage bleach caused the hair follicles was often major. Breakage, frazzled ends and yellowing fluff replaced previously strong, glossy strands. The only solution of a bleach fan was to step away from the toner and go natural. Until the discovery of Olaplex…
Olaplex hair repair genius
Before Olaplex the dream of going from brunette to blonde in a day would be exactly that – a dream. Now, stylists can push the boundaries of colouring thanks to the magical benefits of Olaplex.
These little bottles of lotion aren't yet another 'deep conditioning' treatment. Oh no, it's way more technical than that. Olaplex permanently rebuilds the side bonds (the things that provide elasticity and strength and get damaged during the chemical process) within the hair. See? Clever.
Perfect for peroxide blondes
It's not just bleach fans breathing a sigh of relief. Any chemical process applied to the hair can be Olaplex-ed. That includes perming, keratin treatments and even damage done using your straighteners. And it won't break the bank! Most salons charge around £30 on top of your usual colour. Thirty quid to avoid looking like a scarecrow with a mullet? Yes please.
Repairs the hair from within
We popped into Myla & Davis in Brixton to speak to senior stylist Charlie and try out Olaplex…
What exactly do you do with the Olaplex? We add Step 1 (Olaplex No.1 Bond Multiplier) to the colour mix before applying it to the hair. This means the Olaplex is working to protect the hair during colouring. The system actually rebuilds the hair from the inside. We haven't ever seen anything like it.
Who should have Olaplex? Everyone! I think it should be available to anyone having a colour treatment or other chemical treatment. Hair that used to feel almost stretchy after bleaching now feels strong. You can see a difference after just one treatment.
What happens after colouring? We apply the second stage after rinsing and leave that on as a mask for about 20 minutes to really let it sink in. If you have Olaplex every time you dye your hair you will see a huge change in the condition. It really is amazing.
Is it only available in salons? Step 1 and 2 yes, but you can buy Step 3 to use as a weekly mask at home. I would definitely recommend that.

Candy Melt Cupcake Liner Help! It Won't Come Out!
Decorating By esacgerl Updated 13 Jan 2014 , 6:45am by esacgerl
AHi!! I can't seem to get my candy melt cupcake liner out?? Has anyone had any trouble? Or any other tips? I've watched many videos and read so many posts and they are all the same, yet I can't seem to be successful! Basically, I use candy melt to create a desired thickness in my Wilton 3d cupcake pan and let it set in the refrigerator. According to all the videos on YouTube and the blogs, it should just slide out with a tap, pull, etc. Well i have tried 3 times so far! And still FAILED!
Btw - none use any spray, etc so neither did it. PLEASE HELP!
Try putting it in the freezer for a few minutes, and try again.

ESPNU College Road Trip Visits K-State
Joined by the show's video crew and producer, the two spent last Wednesday and Thursday afternoon hanging out in Manhattan, Kansas, and capturing K-State's game day traditions to share with the nation.
A 30-minute show, ESPNU College Road Trip gives fans the opportunity to get in the center of the action and experience the atmosphere of college football in college towns nation-wide. From tailgates to on-field action, Tirado and Eichenblatt provide fans a first-hand look at more than just the game.
"The cool thing about our job is that we get to travel around and, especially if we haven't been to the place before, we get to take part in an unexpected, thrilling adventure," explained Tirado about the show. "I think that makes it good for the show because we get to share the genuineness of a place."
The hosts kick-started their visit in the Little Apple last Wednesday evening by linking up with the Pride of Wildcat Land. Celebrating a long-time K-State tradition, Tirado and Eichenblatt followed the marching band as it hopped from restaurant to restaurant throughout Aggieville the night before the Wildcats took on Auburn. The College Road Trip camera crew captured the excitement of fans along with the unique energy of the proud college town.
The following day, College Road Trip headed to the parking lots of Bill Snyder Family Stadium where they joined the purple masses in celebrating K-State football.
"I thought Kansas State was going to be less, but there is so much more here," said Eichenblatt. "I didn't really expect what we experienced today. I grew up in SEC country, and I didn't really see many Kansas State games growing up, but it was a really, really good experience. The tailgate scene was really cool. Overall, it's been a great day."
At the tailgates, Tirado and Eichenblatt taste-tested food, learned the "K-S-U" chant and got to know the K-State faithful. The duo signed their names inside a purple bus, played a little football and interviewed fans about K-State.
"They had some creative things out there," said Eichenblatt with a laugh after spending the previous few hours in the parking lots of the stadium. "The creativity of how they build their vehicles was crazy. This guy, he had a double-decker bus and there were all these different conversions to cars - I saw a Maserati with a tailgate behind it. It's just insane."
After the tailgates, the two spent time on the field during the game and got up close and personal with the K-State student section.
"Even though Kansas State didn't get the win, THAT WAS ONE OF THE BEST STUDENT SECTIONS!! They let me crowd-surf," Eichenblatt posted to his Twitter account after the game.
K-State's segment on College Road Trip will air on Wednesday, September 24 at 5 p.m. CT on ESPNU. The show will also air that Wednesday evening at 10:30 p.m. and Thursday, September 25 at 8 a.m. and 3:30 p.m.
"It was definitely a lot better than I thought it would be, I didn't know what to expect to be honest," Tirado said, "but the hospitality was great. From the moment we walked into our room, everybody has been so genuine, nice and helpful. Being a part of the game day experience here, it's been a lot more intense than I thought it was going to be. You never know coming in what it's going to be like, but overall, it was great here."

My wife and I stayed here for three nights in November 2009. We had spoken over the phone with the French proprietor who arranged a taxi transfer from the airport for us. This place is a wonderful oasis of calm amongst the turbulent chaos of Marrakech. On arrival late at night we were very well looked after by our host who provided a sumptuous meal with wine. Our room was a romantic dream, the courtyard, with fountain, plants and birds was so so relaxing, while the rooftop provided limited views of the locality.
There are four bedroom and we found that the other travellers staying here were very good company. Late evening discussions about Morocco allowed us to hone our later travel plans.
The location is a little out of the city centre and one has to keep ones wits sharp to avoid getting lost. What made this such a good part of our holiday to Morocco was the ease of organising the stay at this riad with the proprietor the warm hospitality of the staff and the a serine relaxation provided by the calm nature of the place.

Green heat in the UK
by Dave Elliott
'Heat is very difficult to decarbonise and no consensus is yet reached on the mix needed for the long term and you will have seen that from the various different reports on the subject.' So said the then UK Minister of State for Energy, Baroness Neville-Rolfe, at the Heat Summit last December, with the next phase of the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) central to the agenda. There certainly are some competing options, including community-wide heat networks, green gas supply networks, biomass and solar home heating and domestic heat pumps powered by electricity.
Green heat infrastructure
By Dave Elliott
Imperial College has looked at Heat System Decarbonisation (PDF) in the UK in a new report. Provocatively it says solar and biomass heat can only play limited roles for direct space heating, and focuses mainly on three other low carbon system options: a shift to using hydrogen in the gas grid, the use of decarbonized electricity to run heat pumps, and the creation of local heat networks.
Green heat and energy saving
By Dave Elliott
Heat supply is one of the key weak links in the UK government's attempt to meet the EU-imposed 15% by 2020 renewable energy target. That target still applies – until the UK finally leaves the EU, if it ever does fully. Although there is talk of green heat networks, for the moment the focus is mostly on direct green heat supply for business and private consumers, and there are some changes underway. The UK's Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) has escaped cuts so far. Indeed it is set to expand, but the government wants to restructure it to keep energy costs down for consumers and get better value for money. So, concerned also about impact on food growing, it wants to support the use of food and farm waste-based biomass feedstock rather than crop-based feedstocks for biogas production in Anaerobic Digestion (AD) plants. It has also proposed cutting support for solar heating since it is not seen as good value for taxpayer support.

The RHI to be 'reformed and refocused'
By Dave Elliott
The UK's Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) was introduced to support households, businesses, public bodies and charities in moving from conventional forms of heating to renewable, low carbon sources of heat. It has escaped cuts so far, indeed it is set to expand, but the government wants to restructure it to keep energy costs down for consumers and get better value for money. It expects spending on the RHI to rise from £430m in 2015/16 to £1.15bn in 2020/21, but says it wants to promote wider access and make project more affordable, 'by firmly controlling costs'.

Biomass and renewable gas
By Dave Elliott
Not everyone backs biomass, given the emission/biodiversity/land-use issues, but biomass does offer a range of flexible green fuel options, biogas especially. The World Bioenergy Association (WBA) says bioenergy already contributes over 14% to the global energy mix, and its use is bound to expand. So what are the options? (more…)
Biomass burning impacts: the debate continues
By Dave Elliott
The seemingly endless debate on the impacts of burning biomass continues. At one extreme there are those who see almost all use of biomass as suspect. More specifically there are objections to using whole trees or stem wood, especially if imported so that the source is less sure. One claim is that this can produce more carbon emissions net than would be produced from burning coal, and depletes biogenic carbon stores.
It's actually a complex issue, since forests are managed for a variety of purposes. As a new EU report on 'Biogenic Carbon and Forest Bioenergy' from Forest Research notes:
'Typically, forest bioenergy is produced as a complementary co-product of wood material/fibre products. It is unusual for forest bioenergy to be the sole product from harvested wood'. However it says EU forest bioenergy is likely to increase significantly, so that 'it will be necessary to intensify management of EU forests in order to increase removals of primary wood and/or import more wood into the EU and/or mobilise the availability of sources of other woody biomass.' But it claims 'A requirement to produce forest bioenergy seems unlikely to become the principal driver of forest management unless demand for forest bioenergy becomes very intense'. In particular is suggest that 'demand for forest bioenergy seems likely to be met through increased extraction of harvest residues including poor-quality stemwood and trees, the use of sawmill co-products and recovered waste wood. Some small roundwood may be used as a source of bioenergy. It is less likely that forest bioenergy will involve consumption of wood suitable for high value applications, such as sawlogs typically used for the manufacture of sawn timber'.
Having set the scene it notes that, given this complex and changing pattern of sourcing, 'Biogenic carbon can make a very variable contribution to the GHG emissions associated with forest bioenergy. Consequent GHG emissions can vary from negligible levels to very significant levels (similar to or greater than GHG emissions of fossil energy sources)', although 'in some specific cases, forest bioenergy use may be associated with net carbon sequestration' e.g. when the replanting or rotation rate is high.
Nevertheless 'There is widespread recognition in the research literature that increasing the levels of wood harvesting in existing forest areas will, in most cases, lead to reductions in the overall levels of forest carbon stocks compared with the carbon stocks in the forests under previous levels of harvesting. Where the additional harvesting is used to supply bioenergy as the sole product, then such forest bioenergy will typically involve high associated GHG emissions (i.e. compared with fossil energy sources) for many decades.'
It is this that groups like Friends of the Earth (FoE) and Biofuelwatch focus on, claiming that this is now what is happening- to feed giant biomass combustion plants like Drax with wood pellets from North America, some of which are allegedly made from stemwood. Even so that doesn't necessarily mean they are against the use of all biomass. For example FoE's new report 'Felled for Fuel' focuses on, and objects to, 'burning trees for electricity'. Instead it wants the government to 'refocus support for bioenergy on the use of feedstocks such as agricultural and forestry wastes and biogas from sewage, food waste and other organic wastes' and also to limit the use of the available sustainable biomass 'to modern combined heat and power (CHP) plants which would ensure the most efficient use of these limited feedstocks, making use of the energy for heat as well as generating electricity'. www.foe.co.uk/sites/default/files/downloads/felled-fuel-46611.pdf
FoE does see overall biomass use as being constrained though by more careful assessment of sources and their bio-impacts. It calls for 'the government's ambitions for bioenergy to be scaled down and capped at a level that ensures supplies can be
sourced sustainably and domestically'. That raises many issues. Some see bio-conversion of big old coal plants as a useful stop gap, but if that's not on, then others look to specially grown energy crops as a viable new source, in addition to wastes. And to the use of wood for heat production at the local level. It's a broad ranging debate.
DECC's new, long awaited, Bio-carbon Calculator may help clear the air a bit in relation to large scale biomass conversion plants. DECC uses it to assess a range of scenarios for the net carbon balance that would be associated with North American biomass used in the UK, with different land use changes assumed. It concludes that 'in 2020 it may be possible to meet the UK's demand for solid biomass for electricity using biomass feedstocks from North America that result in electricity with GHG intensities lower than 200 kg CO2e/MWh, when fully accounting for changes in land carbon stock changes. However, there are other bioenergy scenarios that could lead to high GHG intensities (e.g. greater than electricity from coal, when analysed over 40 or 100 years) but would be found to have GHG intensities less than 200 kg CO2e/MWh by the Renewable Energy Directive LCA methodology'.
So it can produce more emissions than coal, but also, done right, with proper choice and regulation of sources, it can be fine. The Renewable Energy Association agreed: 'Anyone using biomass in accordance with the guidelines set out by the UK government would be lower-carbon than other fuels.'
However DECC says the energy input requirement of biomass electricity generated from North American wood used by the UK could be significantly greater than other electricity generating technologies, such as coal, natural gas, nuclear and wind. That may limit its use. But DECC says Energy Input Requirements can be cut e.g. by reducing transport distances and the moisture content of the biomass. So overall it sees some projects as viable. www.gov.uk/government/publications/life-cycle-impacts-of-biomass-electricity-in-2020
Will that end the debate? Unlikely! FoE said it was vital to have tougher regulation and clearly it's not convinced that stem wood isn't being used. But at least the various stakeholders are almost now on the same analytical page, or ought to be, in relation to biomass conversion! How they then decide to respond in terms of strategic development priorities is another matter. Interestingly, DECC won an appeal against a Judicial Review ruling that required it to reinstate a large DRAX biomass conversion project which it had turned down. So it won't now happen. And DECC has also said, in its allocation statement for future CfD rounds (limiting them to £205m p.a.), that it was' not at present intending to release a further budget for biomass conversion', i.e. after the current 'early' CfD round. Clearly biomass conversion is something of a hot potato! https://www.gov.uk/government/news/over-200-million-boost-for-renewables

Bio-energy in the UK
By Dave Elliott
There is a lot going on in the bioenergy field in the UK, with the government keen on biomass conversion of large old coal fired plants like the 4GW Drax plant in Yorkshire. That's based on importing wood pellets from North America, something most greens are opposed too (see my last post), especially if it uses whole trees, as some allege: https://www.foe.co.uk/sites/default/files/downloads/felled-fuel-46611.pdf

Imported wood combustion? Some say it's fine..others disagree
By Dave Elliott
Many environmentalists are not keen on using imported wood pellets in old inefficient converted fossil-fueled plants. They say there are better ways to use biomass and better sources- local anaerobic digestion of biomass wastes and residues, along with Combined Heat and Power (CHP). Large-scale biomass conversion, and even co-firing with coal, is sometimes portrayed as an interim option, getting biomass use established, but not everyone is convinced that this helps build up support for local sourcing of biomass. It's just a way to keep old power plants going, so as to avoid having to write off some sunk costs. There is also the wider debate about the extent to which large-scale combustion of grown biomass, especially from forests, is net low carbon, given that it takes time for new growths to absorb emitted CO2. It's even been claimed that using wood from trees might lead to more emissions net than from using coal, depending on the source of the wood: http://www.rspb.org.uk/Image/biomass_report_tcm9-326672.pdf
Green energy for Africa
By Dave Elliott
The International Renewable Energy Agency says that Africa has the potential and the ability to utilise its renewable resources to fuel the majority of its future growth with renewable energy. It adds 'doing so would be economically competitive with other solutions, would unlock economies of scale, and would offer substantial benefits in terms of equitable development, local value creation, energy security, and environmental sustainability'.
That seems a bold claim both technologically and economically, and also politically. But the renewable resource is very large (for solar especially) and the technologies are getting cheaper fast. However, with 54 very unevenly developed countries on the huge continent, whether the political and institutional cohesion is there for a co-ordinate push is less certain. (more…)

This is how I personally feel mw2 could bring back all the people bored with it (including me =) dlc wise.
Firstly I would put a gun pack for sale at $4, including the following weapons:
smgs - mp5 "classic" and the mp7 with stock (acr of smgs.)
snipers - dragunov and the m40a3 bolt action. I personally hated the m40, but 97.34% of other people didn't so....
assualt rifles - g36c and the g3
lmgs - the m60 and the browning .50cal machine gun
shotguns - w1200
machine pistols - skorpion
pistols - m1911, fixed the reload problem of course
launchers - the mlk 6 pack grenade launcher. to balance the 6 round mag it does little relative damage and has a small radius. Can have flash, stun and smoke attachments.
Nextly I would a Foxtrot pack at $6 containing 5 brutal spec ops misions, as well as a specops leaderboard. You would probably need a friend, and they focus heavily on stealth and explosive sequences. Take mile high club, and add juggernauts for example.
Finally I would bring all the cod4 maps back in a bumper pack at $15, with a half price discount for the stimulus and reserguence pack if bought.
Anyone agree?

He and I are 21.
we met a little over a week ago; watched a movie; made out; had sex. He is the second guy I ever had sex with but I planned that I was going to have sex with him... I wanted to get some pleasure for myself. The sex was really great.. Like we both have the same energy. I told myself that was it; one night stand. Then a couple nights later we both wanted to do it again (I reached out to him). He was all for it. I swore that would be it... Then I found myself again craving him, and we have plans to do it again in a couple nights from now. Again, I reached out to him but he's always 100% down. He doesn't have sex with other women. He's a busy ahtlete, kinda goody-goody and doesn't go out much... Or party.. I SWEAR I don't like him. I mean, I can't possibly because we've literally only talked for 15 minutes before and after we have sex. I don't know him on a personal level so how can I develop feelings for him? Yet my friends are saying I caught feelings... But I just think I'm craving the sex and that's it, right?
Am I in denial? I keep coming back for more sex with this guy... That does NOT mean I am catching feelings, right 😵?
He and I are 21.
