Listeners with a special interest in one of America's most contentious ongoing debates may find this comprehensive entry into the cultural discourse particularly interesting. Louise Kuo Habakus and Mary Holland edit this extensive treatise on vaccination choice, ethics, and science, which also contains reviews of further, more specialized books within the field.
Kris Koscheski and Coleen Marlo employ crisp diction to great effect in their performance of Vaccine Epidemic, providing an objective delivery of the interesting and educational information contained within.
How Corporate Greed, Biased Science, and Coercive Government Threaten Our Human Rights, Our Health, and Our Children
National polls show that Americans are increasingly concerned about vaccine safety and the right to make individual, informed choices together with their healthcare practitioners. Vaccine Epidemic focuses on the searing debate surrounding individual and parental vaccination choice in the United States. Featuring more than 20 experts from the fields of ethics, law, science, medicine, business, and history, Vaccine Epidemic urgently calls for reform. It is the essential handbook for the vaccination choice movement and required reading for all people contemplating vaccination for themselves and their children.
Louise Kuo Habakus and Mary Holland edit and introduce a diverse array of interrelated topics concerning the explosive vaccine controversy, including:

"Must read/listen"
This book was a wonderful review of them multiple facets relating to vaccination choice, the history of disease, history and ethics of clinical research and vaccination practice. It discusses and summarizes Key points in the discussion of vaccination choice, perceived benefits, and risks.
"Very informative"
I wish I would have had this book when my kids were babies. Now I worry about my grandchildren. This is a book all parents should read or listen to on audio.
This book has given me a more balanced view of vaccines, their usefulness and limitations, along with their risks and ways to reduce possible adverse affects.
The human rights regarding vaccines area was a new concept for me and I am grateful for the information and views this book has given me to consider.
"big Pharma and the Deep State exposed"
This book is what every parent should know or what every citizen of the United States should know. Do not consent tyranny, even under the guise of the greater good, for a lie is still a lie no matter what form it takes.
"Very comprehensive."
As a chiropractic physician, I'm trained to think outside the box. To look at the human body in a different way and treat accordingly. This book stands as a testimony to all those who have been given the crazy look by medical professionals who can't see the big picture. I'm not a zealot when it comes to anti vaccinations, but sure as hell stand my ground when asked why my child wasn't. A big thank you to the authors for empowering my stance on this sensitive subject
"Opinionated and inaccurate"
Extremely opinionated with a lot of inaccurate information. It was very biased. Basically just inaccurate information attacking vaccines.
"For all parents to read!"
If your thinking about vacancies, you need to educate yourself. This book gives you "the other sides" view. Not until one has read for and against, can one make a sound choice!
loved the medical and legal perspectives. must read. I really enjoyed this amazingly helpful read.
"Must read for parents don't pass this book up"
G reat book lots of info!! a must read for any parents !

To begin I will tell you a recent story about my season:
Am I watching the breakaway? (Photo: Facebook Anastasia Photo-vélo)
I began my season in Cat 3 and I got a 2nd rank. After two Cat 3 races I tried to race in Cat 2. I was lucky because I was able to follow Cat 2 bunch racers after one month. So I decided to perform in Cat 1 races since May.

Can newspapers perform as well when editorial staffs are reduced? I don't think there's a hard-and-fast answer to that question because, quite obviously, it depends on the level of staffing, and individual work-rates before cuts are made.
One US editor - Steve Smith, editor of the Spokesman-Review in Spokane, Washington - who has been required to reduce his newsroom staff by 8-12 places by next year, is certain that it will have a negative effect.
He is quoted approvingly by Philip Stone as telling his staff: "None of us should hold any illusions here. A smaller staff means a lesser paper. There is no 'working harder' or 'working smarter' rhetoric that can hide the impact of staff reductions. Doing more with less is corporate BS and you won't hear it from me. There is no way to make this pig look like anything other than a pig. As we reduce staff we will have to make very tough choices and some of what we do now simply won't survive the process."
Stone likes Smith's candour and clearly agrees with him, asking: "If the never-ending cycle [of cuts] continues, at what point will readers rise in rebellion and say they are no longer getting true value for money?" He also asks: "How do you really cover all the local news that a newspaper should be covering if management is busy culling that local reporting staff?"
He cites the example of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune which cut 74 journalists' jobs earlier this year and then found itself last week dealing with the biggest story to hit its city in decades when the bridge collapsed.
So, asks Stone, how did the paper manage to assign 75 reporters and photographers to cover the bridge disaster? Editor Nancy Barnes explained: "We pulled people from sports, business, features and everyone who was here." She had 15 photographers at the site, even pulling the photographer from the Minneapolis Twins baseball game.
I have to say I find this explanation both extraordinary and ordinary. The extraordinary bit, as most British editors will surely agree, is that there were 75 staff of any kind available. The ordinary bit is that when really big stories break other matters - including sporting events - become irrelevant. It's all hands to the tiller. That's good journalism.
Do Stone (and Smith) really think any publisher could justify having 70-odd journalists milling around the newsroom for years on end waiting for the moment that a bridge collapses? (And, by the way, bloggers without any link to the Star-Tribune did a fine job reporting the bridge collapse too).
I can't help but recall my days in Fleet Street when every paper carried so many passengers who did little but drink and talk. Therefore, in the early rounds of staff cuts from the mid-1980s into the 1990s, did not materially affect the quality or quantity of output. I think that US newspapers are at this stage of cuts right now, weeding out the unproductive dead wood and paying off the older, disenchanted staff. They are 20 years behind Britain in this respect.
However, none of this should blind us to the fact that many British newspaper owners and managers learned the wrong lessons from the "success" of their original cutbacks. They began to see editorial budget cuts, in both national and regional titles, as the sole answer to problems of declining revenue from ads and circulation. This has meant that certain papers - the Independent and Express titles are obvious examples - have reduced their coverage, becoming partial newspapers in the process.
Editorial quality has suffered at many local newspapers too, where reporters have no time to leave the office and are expected to write stories based on phone calls or PR hand-outs.
It would be awful for the same situation to occur in America, but their papers' newsroom staffing is nowhere near as low as in Britain. I think Stone, a media commentator for whom I have great respect, needs to temper his knee-jerk criticism of all editorial cuts by giving closer consideration to the traditional over-staffing and feather-bedding in US papers. Otherwise, when cuts do genuinely affect output at some future period, he and his fellow critics will be accused of crying wolf.

Snailhouse: Sentimental Gentleman
Sentimental Gentlemen is an indisputably well-crafted pop gem.
SnailhouseLabel: Forward Music
Title: Sentimental Gentleman
US Release Date: 2011-05-24
UK Release Date: Import
The solo project masquerading behind a band name is an eventuality that becomes more and more prevalent in the digital age. Such obfuscation is often telling, begging the question as to why said artist is loath to release material under their government names. Paranoiac perceptions of subterfuge aside, Snailhouse is the molluscan pseudonym under which Wooden Stars guitarist Mike Feuerstack has performed solo material since 1994. While Wooden Stars has been at best semi-active in the wake of backing Julie Doiron at the turn of the millennium, Snailhouse has proven to be a pretty vibrant unit. Playing guitar and steel in front of a rotating collective of fellow (mostly) Canadians, the Montreal-based Feuerstack has released six albums and two EPs to date, each treading a fine line between the indie pop of artists like Maritime and the folkier side of the Weakerthans/Dave Bryson collaborations. Sentimental Gentlemen is even smoother than conventional Snailhouse fare, evoking the aforementioned combos and adding a pastoral Canadian Steely Dan vibe that will no doubt appeal to older fans. It's a little twee for my inner displaced adolescent, but Sentimental Gentlemen is an indisputably well-crafted pop gem.

Ken Oberkfell led Norfolk to a 79-65 record, winning the IL's South Division by 14 games in his rookie season in Triple-A. The club bowed out in the first round of the playoffs, but took eventual champion Toledo to a deciding fifth game before doing so.
Over his 10-year managerial career, Oberkfell has become known for drawing on his depth of personal experience as a player with the Cardinals, Braves, Pirates, Giants, Astros and Angels.
"You just instantly respect him because of everything he's been through," Norfolk third baseman Rodney Nye said. "He just lets you play the game. As a player he's easy to play for because of his laid-back approach. Guys respond to that and have good years under him for those reasons."
"There is enough pressure at this level," righthander Jason Scobie said. "He just lets you go out there and do what you have to do. We all make mistakes, but Obie's approach is to take it easy and that helps a lot. His door is always open and he's the best manager I've ever played for."
It is that openness, that experience, and the outstanding job he did this season in Norfolk that makes him Baseball America's Manager of the Year.
Getting It Started
Oberkfell took two years off after retiring in 1992, essentially playing a lot of golf and figuring out what he wanted to do next. He decided he wanted to manage, but there were no offers around in affiliated ball. Never one to be discouraged, Oberkfell took a job in the independent Northeast League, managing the Mohawk Valley Landsharks to a second-place finish with a 47-23 record in 1995.
"It was a lot harder than I thought it'd be," Oberkfell said of landing a managing gig. "You can't walk in to some major league front office and tell them you want to manage. It just doesn't work that way."
From New York's Mohawk Valley, Oberkfell spent another year in the independent leagues before then-Phillies GM Lee Thomas gave him a shot with low Class A Piedmont in 1997. He remained there until 1999, leading the Boll Weevils to the playoffs in 1998.
Oberkfell and the Phillies parted ways after the 1999 season, and then the Mets came calling. He returned to the South Atlantic League, but this time to Capital City. He was with the Bombers for one season before heading to high Class A St. Lucie, leading the Mets to the playoffs in 2002 and winning the Florida State League title in 2003.
He moved up again last year, this time to Double-A Binghamton, where the B-Mets finished 10 games over .500 and made the postseason. Counting this year's appearance, Oberkfell has four consecutive playoff berths at three different levels.
"He's done a great, great job of implementing our organizational philosophy and yet keeping our plan for individual players," Mets farm director Kevin Morgan said. "We felt that through his experience and extreme wealth of knowledge, he'd be a prefect fit for Triple-A. He's a strong communicator with an innate ability to express what's needed out of his players.
"Triple-A is a psychological game as well, simply because of all the moves that occur throughout the season. You have to have strong interpersonal skills, and Ken does an outstanding job of getting to know each player's personality. He understands what each player is going through because of his playing experience and his ability to communicate. They relate to him."
Strong Base
Growing up in suburban St. Louis, all Oberkfell ever wanted was to play for his hometown team. His dream became a reality in 1977, when he broke in with the Cardinals, finally making it to the big leagues for good in 1979.
In Oberkfell's 16-year big league career, he tasted the postseason twice, winning the World Series with the Cards in 1982.
"There's no question that was the year packed with the greatest memories," Oberkfell said. "To win the World Series in your hometown was an amazing experience. We didn't have a bunch of superstars, but we were so consistent and so strong defensively. We were just a bunch of hard-nosed, fast players who played good defense."
And Oberkfell was one of the hardest noses of the bunch. During his career, he averaged 130 games a season despite knee surgery, a broken thumb and an elbow injury.
"I always just tried to play through everything," he said. "Nowadays with the amount of money clubs are investing, it's a different story. You just try to get to know the player as best you can. That tells you more of what kind of player they are than anything else."
Oberkfell also had a lot of good brains to pick. Over the years, he played for Whitey Herzog, Jim Leyland, Joe Torre and Chuck Tanner. But he regards Herzog as having the biggest influence on his managerial style.
"I learned a lot from Whitey in terms of handling players and communicating--especially with extra players," he said. "He always had a way of keeping them positive, keeping them ready. That's so important if you want to have success at any level.
"And just like Whitey, I like to run. I like to be aggressive on the bases. I'm a pretty laid back guy until we have runners on base."
After the season ended, Oberkfell went to Houston, where he now calls home, before he heads to the Arizona Fall League in October. His name has been mentioned--along with Leyland's--as a possible candidate for the vacancy in Pittsburgh for next season.
And there is no doubt he's ready to get back to the big leagues again.
"A lot of superstar players maybe get the opportunity (to manage in the big leagues) because of their name, but it's not that easy," Oberkfell said. "You should pay your dues. I think you learn once you try it. Having been in the minors for 10 years, I think I've learned a lot. Don't get me wrong, Triple-A isn't a bad gig, but I want to be back in the big leagues--everyone does. If they tell you any different, they're lying."

Visitied in the winter, no outside deck of course. Really cool initial impressions. Old restored building feel in this one. Big restaurant with lots of setaing. Has a chocolate store attached. Nice big sampler of eight brews. Really liked thedining and drinking experience. Food was rather expensive but hey its in the middle of downtown nashua.
Oginme (13) New Hampshire | July 23, 2014
Early lunch on a Friday, fairly quiet, menu selection was very good ranging from basic pub fare to decent dining options, beer selection was somewhat limited, but encompassing. Taste tested a few before ordering a pint and they were all good, clean brews. Food was very good. Service was very good.
puboflyons (156) Allenstown, New Hampshire | April 5, 2014
Downtown Nashua brewpub that has been around for many years. Loved looking at the eight big copper fermenting tanks in the back of the room. Eight locally brewed beers on tap when I was there for lunch so as I usually do in brewpubs - I ordered the sampler paddle. The beers all had their own likable qualities to them. None of the eight seemed bad at all. I had the Cubano Panini with a Greek pasta salad on the side for $10. It was delightful. Very friendly waitress name Kirsten. I recommend it.
Travlr (3057) Charlotte , North Carolina | August 4, 2013
This was an unexpected surprise - a country inn feeling, attached to a chocolate shop, or maybe the other way around. Tap selection had a good variety of their own stuff, mostly very solid. Lobster rolls were really good. Worth going out of your way to try.
BeerandBlues2 (1056) Escondido, California | June 24, 2013
Marthas is housed in an old downtown building that used to be a candy shop, and you can still buy candies at a walk-up counter. The interior is spacious and there is outdoor seating for good weather days. The food was particularly good and the beer slightly above average. Our server was friendly, attentive and prompt.
BroSpud (53) , Massachusetts | November 4, 2012
Not a fan of most of their beers and their food isn't anything spectacular but the restaurant itself is pretty nice in a good area of town.
jnoel (3) New Hampshire | May 14, 2012
Decent beers but keep in mind they only sell what they brew. Some of the crafts are good others are quite lacking. They have improved the quality of the restaurant significantly over the past several years although you still get a very lets say "casual" crowd. That could be good or bad based on what youre looking for I guess :)
johnnnniee (170) Bedford, New Hampshire | February 27, 2012
I've been to Martha's quite a few times and I'm kind of surprised I haven't rated this before now. So Martha's is a brew pub on the main drag (Main St) through downtown Nashua. They have no off street parking, but the parking garage on high street is free after 6pm and on the weekend if you can't find something on street. The menu has standard pub fare as well as some more exotic dinners, I like the Spicy Caribbean Jerk Chicken for example. There are usually 6 or 7 house brews on tap and once a week they tap a cask. The beer is usually solid and sometimes exceptional. I've always received prompt attention from the staff. Prices seem to be in line with similar establishments and the candy counter is a surefire way to get my wife to come with me. The one downside is at 10 pm on the weekend the place turns into a dance club so its best to avoid unless you are into that sort of thing.
AirForceHops (202) Epping, New Hampshire | November 11, 2011
Stopped in for dinner and beers on Veterans Day. The building has an interesting history, check out the story on the website. Seven brews on draught. Nothing on cask. We were not real impressed with the food. Small portions and they got my order wrong. Our waitress was nice and friendly and didn't have trouble fixing my bill after they got my food wrong. I say stop in for beers and eat someplace else.
LilBeerDoctor (388) Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania | May 2, 2011
I stopped here on a Tuesday afternoon for lunch and it was pretty quiet. The place has a sports-bar feel with several large TVs tuned to ESPN. They had 7-8 of their beers on tap, which were pretty basic styles (I tried the stout which was decent and the pilsener which was pretty good). The food menu is fairly extensive, featuring most of your typical pub fare. I had the soup and salad which was tasty. Overall, a decent stop although there is really nothing about the place to stand out in my head and I'm sure I'll forget I ever went here in a few years. Would I come back? Meh...maybe, but probably not.

HOUSTON (ICIS)--US cumene production in the third quarter of 2013 totalled about 1.49bn lbs (676,000 tonnes), down by more than 6% from 1.59bn lbs one year earlier, the American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM) said on Thursday.
However, cumene output for the third quarter was up almost 10% from 1.36bn lbs in the previous quarter, the group said.
Total cumene production for the first three quarters of 2013 was about 4.23bn lbs, down by about 22% from 5.43bn lbs in first three quarters of 2012, according to the AFPM.
AFPM's quarterly data is based on voluntary reports.
Participating in the survey were Blue Island Phenol, Citgo, Axiall, Ineos Phenol, Dow Chemical, Shell Chemical, Marathon and Flint Hills Resources.


text: I'm in Burlington this evening. I'm going to speak at the New England Library Association conference tomorrow about Web 2.0 stuff. I'll link to the talk tomorrow. I'm not totally sure why regional library associations like this exist when there are already library associations for all the states they represent, but it's fun to see a new group of librarians and some old friends, especially Michael Golrick who is moving to a new job shortly and will no longer be a NELA member, Lichen Rancourt, my carpool buddy from Library Camp, Lichen's Mom (Jay) superstar New Hampshire librarian and Brian Herzog who works at a library near where I grew up. When I met Brian I said "Oh hey, I just started reading your blog" which I guess was a bit surpising to him because he just recently started it. The hotel has a pool so I'm heading down there. If you see me at the conference please come by and say hello.

Serenity salad
It was 8:30 p.m. Thursday by the time I hauled myself, kicking and screaming, out to the Rock County Community Garden to water my rented plot.
I was surprised at how cool and pleasant the evening was. However, I refused to let it cheer me up. It had been such an ugly afternoon. I was still headachey and feeling sorry for myself after an emotionally and physically draining work day.
I weeded until it was too dark to see. Then I watered by the orange glow of the security lights outside the Youth Services Center. I frowned diligently.
At one point, Jim Haseman walked by with an armload of carrots. I�ve gardened alongside Jim for three summers; he�s never sweaty or crabby. He never wallows around in bitterness. He just gardens like a machine for months at a time.
Haseman is one of several volunteers who lead the Rock County Jail Recap workers in their gardening efforts. They work in the beautiful stretch of the garden right along Highway 14. (Beyond that, you can see the rented plots such as mine.)
The Recap program allows nonviolent inmates to work off fines or jail time by doing community service work.
Over his carrots, Jim invited me to stop out at the garden workshop when I was done working.
�We�re making a salad,� he said.
Crabby or not, I�m still smart enough to know that when Jim Hasemen walks by with an armload of carrots, you should follow. In between supervising Recap workers, Jim has given me plenty of gardening advice over the years. (Usually, �more compost.�) The man knows his stuff.
I followed, and was treated to my first �real� garden salad of the season: fresh lettuce, kale, onions, carrots, kohlrabi, parsley, zucchini and homemade, make-your-knees weak balsamic vinaigrette.
My headache went away. My cranky attitude took a turn for the better. I remembered why I spend my June evenings weeding, watering and squishing Japanese beetles. You simply can�t be crabby when eating onions (and everything else) straight out of the garden.
I�m still three weeks out from harvesting veggies in my plot. (Well, except for Swiss Chard, she interjected bitterly. I�ve got plenty of that.) Thanks, Jim, for the inspiration. Before I know it, mid-July will be upon us, and I�ll be eating fresh vegetables of my own.
No more frownie face for me.

Toddler Surprised By Ice Bucket Challenge Swears Harder Than a Sailor
Toddlers sure love surprises. And I bet the parents of this little girl were also pleasantly surprised by the string of swear words that emanated from her adorable lips when they poured a pot of water on her. From whence only babble came before, now came an unholy cursing of epic proportions.

UPDATE #2: Per Fox 31's Eli Stokols, Rep. Mike Coffman is now doing a Cory Gardner and kicking Personhood to the curb entirely — not just as a 2014 ballot measure.
GOP Congressman Mike Coffman is no longer supporting personhood, his campaign confirmed Tuesday, making him the second Republican in the last five days to disavow the movement to ban abortion — even in cases of rape or incest — that he'd previously supported. Coffman, R-Aurora, made his abrupt 180 on the issue public through his campaign just hours after his opponent, Democrat Andrew Romanoff, challenged Coffman to do so…
…In fact, Coffman has never disavowed personhood until today. In 2012, he told the Denver Post he "will not be endorsing nor opposing any state or local ballot questions" because he's running for federal office — which he's doing again in 2014. But a 2012 article by the Colorado Statesman noted that Coffman "stands alone as a major Colorado politician in close election who has not withdrawn his previous support for the personhood amendment" and quoted two personhood backers praising Coffman for his stance.
Looks like "daddy needs a new pair of shoes":
UPDATE: Coffman's campaign manager responds, as Kurtis Lee of the Denver Post reports:
Coffman's campaign manager, Tyler Sandberg, called Romanoff the "Czar of Sleaze," comments that echoed Democratic U.S. Senator Michael Bennet from their bitter 2010 Senate primary, and noted Coffman did not support personhood in 2012 (it was not on the November ballot that year) and does not support this year's proposal…
…In 2012, Coffman was consistently assailed by this then Democratic challenger, state Rep. Joe Miklosi, for supporting "personhood." Often in debates two years ago, Coffman, who is pro-life, would deflect the criticism and insisted his candidacy was not focused on social issues.
That's nice of Tyler Sandberg to note that Coffman didn't support Personhood in 2012, since that's relevant and all. And what's with "Czar of Sleaze?" Is that really the best nickname they could come up with for Romanoff?
In a press release and email blast to supporters this morning, Democratic CD-6 candidate Andrew Romanoff challenges incumbent Republican Mike Coffman on the suddenly reanimated issue of the "Personhood" total abortion bans repeatedly proposed in Colorado.
Most Coloradans understand the dangers of the "personhood" amendment. That's why they've rejected this proposal every time it's reached the ballot.
The amendment would criminalize not only abortion — even in cases of rape or incest — but also common forms of birth control. This initiative represents a clear violation of the U.S. Constitution, and it has no place in Colorado law.
We need a representative who recognizes that.
Unfortunately, Congressman Mike Coffman has supported the personhood amendment at every turn. He has described his opposition to reproductive rights as "unequivocal" and "unapologetic."
After the jump, the Romanoff campaign's long list from today's release of supporting evidence that Coffman, or at least what we've come to refer to as "Old Coffman," is/has been a longtime supporter of the very same "Personhood" total abortion ban measures that have recently ensnared U.S. Senate candidate Cory Gardner. None of the information is new, of course; we and Democrats have taken note of Coffman's former ardent support for banning abortion even in cases of rape or incest in prior campaigns. But with the issue once again waylaying the campaigns of Colorado Republicans–much to Dick Wadhams' dismay–this may be the year that Coffman is finally made to answer for it.
Congressman Mike Coffman's Record: Pro-Personhood, Against a Woman's Right to Make Her Own Health Care Decisions
2012: Colorado Right to Life Hails Congressman Coffman as Pro Personhood. In 2012, Colorado Right to Life Vice President Leslie Hanks stated that Coffman's pro-life positions, as reported on their blog, reflected the group's candidate survey results. "Our blog reports on our candidate survey results," Hanks said. "Congressman Coffman answered all our questions correctly to reflect he is a no exceptions pro life elected official who supports the personhood of the baby in the womb." [Colorado Independent, 1/06/12]
2011: Congressman Coffman Co-Sponsored a Bill with Todd Akin to Redefine Rape. In 2011, Coffman co-sponsored the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortions Act, which would redefine a ban on federal funding for abortions to exempt only "forcible rape" and not "rape" generally. According to the Washington Post, the Act would make a version of the Hyde Amendment permanent. The Hyde Amendment, which had been renewed every year since 1976, prevented some federally-funded health care programs from covering abortions, with exceptions in cases of rape and incest, and when the life of the woman is threatened. However, under the language proposed by the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortions Act, rape becomes "forcible rape." [HR 3 Co-Sponsors, 112th Congress; W
ashington Post,2/01/11]
2011: Congressman Coffman Voted to Defund Planned Parenthood. In 2011, Congressman Coffman voted for a bill which would insert a section in the FY11 Continuing Resolution which would prohibit Planned Parenthood and its affiliates from receiving federal funding. The resolution would order the Clerk of the House to change H.R. 1473, the FY11 Continuing Resolution, to bar the use of the federal funds to go to Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc., or any affiliate. The bill passed 241-185. [H Con Res 36, Vote #271, 4/14/11; The Hill, 4/12/11]
2010: Colorado Right to Life Said Congressman Coffman Supported Personhood Amendment. According to Colorado Right to Life, Coffman was "on record supporting Personhood." [Colorado Right to Life blog, 10/2/10]
2008: Congressman Coffman Supported the Personhood Amendment. In 2008, Coffman responded to a Colorado Right to Life Candidate Questionnaire stating "Yes" in response to the question "Do you support the 2008 Colorado Personhood amendment effort to define "person" to include any human being from the moment of fertilization?" [Colorado Right to Life, Candidate Questionnaire, 2008]
- Personhood Amendment Would Ban Many Forms of Birth Control. According to a 2008 Denver Post Editorial, the personhood amendment "goes far beyond banning abortion and many forms of birth control." [Denver Post, 6/2/08]
- Colorado Personhood Amendment would Give Fertilized Human Eggs the Same Constitutional Rights as a Living Person. In 2008, National Public Radio reported, "Amendment 48 would define 'personhood' as beginning at the moment of conception, giving fertilized human eggs the same constitutional rights as a person." [National Public Radio, 10/31/08]
2008: Congressman Coffman Said he Supported "The Right to Life In All Its Stages" On his 2008 campaign website, Coffman said that he supported "the right to life in all its stages." "In America we have a long tradition of promoting life as an unalienable right, and I will always be an unapologetic advocate for the right to life in all its stages," [Coffman campaign website, 4/20/08]

Excitingly, Mayor Johnson's hair has been voted the best of any male celebrity in Britain in a poll organised by Brylcreem. This makes no sense at all, as Johnson's own response implies. "I'm baffled but delighted by this award," he said in a painstakingly groomed statementm adding that, "the Johnson hairstyle is, I fear, impossible to imitate, as it is a product of random and competing forces of nature."
Exactly so. Brylcreem is a hair-dressing for the purpose of moulding, holding, glossing or otherwise artificially enhancing the coiffure. If Johnson has ever used it, the public has seen no evidence of it working. That said, he's perhaps protesting a little too much in remarking, "I'm afraid that other people probably pay more attention to my barnet than I do." Love that cockney rhyming slang, old sport, but we've old heard those stories about your ruffling up your mop before appearing on television, allegedly to heighten its attention-drawing effects.
Whatever, the award seals Johnson's place in the pantheon of famous Tory hair, where he keeps company with such icons as Michael Heseltine and Mrs T. Labour has a lot of catching up to do, as another category of the Brylcreem awards shows. The poll for worst celebrity hair placed Gordon Brown at number four, making his style the object of only slightly less national derision than those of Wayne Rooney, Jonathan Ross and Russell Brand. Resign!

In response to requests from Plumbing Manufacturers Intl. (PMI) and its members, as well as from other supporters of the U.S....
ZENON Environmental is spearheading the drive to send its Homespring units to provide clean, safe water to victims of the disaster in India and Sri Lanka. In a combined initiative through the assistance of Eureka Forbes, a pioneer and leader in water purification systems in India and World Vision, an international relief and development organization and its partners on the ground, ZENON will initially donate 54 of its Homespring water filtration units to support relief efforts in Asia.
ZENON's Homespring units will be installed in Sri Lanka and India where there is a high and critical need for clean and safe water. These include relief camps, schools and other community locations. Eureka Forbes has taken on the responsibility of servicing and maintaining the units to ensure continued safe drinking water to people in the area. Eureka Forbes is a marketer of the Aquaguard Water Purifier in India with one of the widest sales and service networks across the country.
World Vision will provide its expertise in identifying those areas most in need as well as coordinate the logistics of transporting the units on the ground. For those units that are installed in temporary relief camps, these will be moved to other areas where there is a continued need, such as schools, old age homes, etc. and will not be sold commercially.
The Homespring product is the first whole home water filtration system launched by ZENON's Consumer Product Division. With ZENON's ZeeWeed ultrafiltration membranes at the core of the product, the patented, self-contained Homespring system makes water biologically safe for consumption, without chemicals, by physically removing suspended solids, viruses, parasites and bacteria from the water.
Clean water is critical to the victims' survival at this point. According to the World Health Organization, the average physically active adult consumes approximately four litres (one gallon) of water per day. As each Homespring water filtration unit can potentially produce up to 27,000 litres of water per day (7,000 gallons) depending on water quality, the 54 units being provided by ZENON are capable of providing safe drinking water to over 350,000 people.
"We are committed to helping find water treatment solutions to the relief efforts in the region," said Andrew Benedek, Chairman and CEO of ZENON. "Our participation in this initiative reinforces our positioning to solve real world problems and, as our logo says, provide Water for the World."
"Providing water is an integral part of World Vision's relief efforts," said Marilyn Friedmann, vice president, Donor Development, World Vision Canada. "This partnership with ZENON supports more than World Vision's relief effort, it supports reconstruction and will allow us to make significant inroads with the rehabilitation of municipal water supplies."
In addition to ZENON's efforts with the Homespring water filtration systems, the company's larger water purification systems, which the Canadian Army have trusted for years, will be deployed by Canada's Disaster Assistance Relief Team (DART). ZENON continues to seek out initiatives to further assist tsunami and earthquake victims in Asia.
World Vision is an international Christian relief and development organization working in more than 90 countries around the world, providing help to more than 85 million people each year. Additional information is available at www.worldvision.ca.

Attention local aspiring Top Chef: Just Desserts competitors: You've got a chance to show off your stuff locally this Fourth of July before making the big time.
Prairie Village is for the second year in a row putting on Pie Baking Contest as part of its annual VillageFest celebration. Last year, more than 30 contestants baked up an entry.

"It definitely bugs me,'' Curry added. "I think I'm a starter in this league, but I guess not on this team.''
I used to be a fan of this guy. But these comments really got in my nerves. In actuality, he's more of a 20-25 minute starter in some teams, maybe a 30-35 minute starter in a few teams, and a reserve center for the other teams. I'm just so sick of this guy not performing like he's supposed to. And then after the games he makes all these comments. Heck he doesn't even have to live up to expectations anymore, but at least he should do what centers in general do, and that's defend and rebound, AND not just low post scoring. It is insane how he sucks so much in defense and in teamplay after all these years as a PRO. This guy will NEVER be an Allstar even after Shaq officially becomes a mediocre player.

What is an EEO-1?
An EEO-1 is an annual report on the demographics of a large organization's work force, broken out by job category, race, gender and ethnicity. The EEOC uses EEO-1s from employers nationwide to analyze hiring patterns, assess the advancement of ethnic groups and women in the work force, and to pursue claims against employers that appear to underemploy minorities and women.
The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) also uses the information to promote affirmative action and diversity and to identify employment discrimination by government contractors.

According to a new Public Policy Polling (D) (IVR) poll (Aug. 16-19; 721 RVs; +/- 3.7%), Gov. Bobby Jindal's (R) approval rating is only 28%, while 59% of voters disapprove of his job performance. (release)
The poll represents a steep decline for Jindal, but Pelican State polling is all over the map. Roughly contemporaneous surveys from Jindal's pollster, OnMessage Inc. (R), and GOP robopollster Harper Polling (R) (IVR) paint slightly better pictures for Jindal. Still, it's clear that Jindal's star has fallen significantly.

The daughter of Tiresias of Thebes. After Thebes was taken by the Epigonoi, Manto was brought back to Apollo at Delphi as war prize. Apollo ordered the girl to found a oracle of him in Colophon (Asia Minor). There, she became the mother of the seer Mopsus. According to another tradition, she ended up in Italy where she became by Tiberinus the mother of Ocnus, the founder of Mantua (Mantova) (Virgil X, 199). Other sources mention that the city was named after a different Manto, who was regarded as the daughter of Heracles. Mantua is also connected to Mantus, god of the underworld.

Nintendo announced today the development of Wii Fit Body Check Channel, a new Wii Channel program that will shortly be used by NEC, Panasonic and Hitachi for various health products and services.
A Wii Fit billboard ad. Recently, Wii Fit topped the three million mark in domestic sales.
The Wii Fit Body Check Channel program serves two purposes. In addition to providing a simple interface for users to receive health instruction, it also connects to the internet to send Wii Fit player data to health professionals.
NEC, Panasonic and Hitachi take over from there. Each manufacturer is developing specialized systems for long distance health guidance. The systems use Wii Fit Body Check Channel as a bridge between users and professionals, offering the two parties a better means of communication.
Hitachi's system, which is being developed with Hitachi Software Engineering, will see an internal test in February, with a full rollout taking place if this is successful.
Panasonic's system, Plissimo Sigusa, will be offered to health organizations and insurance companies in April.
NEC's system, developed with NEC Mobiling, will take the form of a health support system for NEC Group employees and their families to kick off in April. In addition to long distance guidance, the service connects Wii Fit Body Check Channel with a mobile health service that NEC has been offering since December, allowing users to regularly check up on their health. NEC plans on offering the system externally as well, and hopes to receive 150 orders over a three year period.
I wonder if something like this would ever make it to the US.

It may have been all in fun, but chants of "Leafs suck, Leafs suck," rang out when Zdeno Chara cost Phil Kessel another car Thursday night.
With a strong Senators bias, fans packed into the Casino du Lac-Leamy in Gatineau, across the pond from Ottawa, and razzed Kessel, who last year won a new car as the last overall pick in the NHL all-star fantasy draft.
Kessel only had to sweat it out through 14 picks before Chara, perhaps with some prodding from his assistant captain, Maple Leafs forward and Kessel linemate Joffrey Lupul, called out his name.
"It's not like last year," Kessel said into the TSN cameras, flashing a grin. "But I don't think it really matters."
Asked if he had any advice for the player picked last, Kessel said: "Don't worry about it. It's not a big deal."
Maybe not a big deal, but certainly not a bad deal if you can suck up your pride. And San Jose Sharks Logan Couture will be the rone riding home in a new car.
Left squirming in his seat last year when Paul Stastny's name was called and he was left sitting alone, Kessel was given $20,000 to donate to charities of his choice, plus the keys to a shiny Honda CR-Z hybrid. All that was missing were Barker's Beauties.
Back to the draft. It wasn't as nasty as the Battle of Ontario of old, when the Maple Leafs and Senators fought tooth and nail, but there was an anti-Leaf sentiment.
Lupul paused at one point and mused: "You guys don't like the Leafs, eh?"
"I know Phil looked a little uncomfortable last year but he still has a car," said Lupul.
Defenceman Dion Phaneuf also went to Team Chara/Lupul, with their 13th pick.
And while that was all happening, Team Daniel Alfredsson was loading up with Senators … and Swedes.

City Moves To Include Public Health Element In General Plan
The City of Richmond, California, is in the midst of a comprehensive General Plan update that is geared not only to meet the regulatory requirements, but as a catalyst for change and innovation. In that vein, the City with the assistance of Moore Iacofano Goltsman, Inc. (MIG) and PolicyLink applied for a grant with the California Endowment to conduct a Health Impact Assessment and to develop health policies to guide future land development.
"Every city and county in California is required to have an updated general plan. Richmond will consider public health as it makes plans for walkable communities, safe bicycle routes and a clean environment, said Daniel Iacofano, a principal of Moore Iacofano Goltsman, which is overseeing the planning process.
"In Richmond we have an opportunity to fundamentally change the way cities plan for the future by showing the link between our physical environment and public health," Iacofano said. "Where you live, work, play and go to school has an effect on your health...
Richmond has 32 miles of shoreline, but we have whole parts of the city that are literally cut off from that," Iacofano said. "These communities don't have access to fresh air, views and opportunities to understand one's environment."
The General Plan will be completed in early 2008.
Thanks to Mindy Craig

I already had my weekend pass and plans with my little brother to attend before I took a new job and moved, so I really wanted to come back and attend the con. Unfortunately, that meant I only got one day there instead of three, but we made it count.
And now for pictures, because why not?
Various Arrows.
Ooh! My brother and I went to see a panel with FitzSimmons from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. They were both unbelievably adorable.
The K-2SO was fabulous.
Of course.
There was another Maui there who had inked the tattoos onto his body with paint, but I didn't get his picture.
Patty cake with t-rex!
They've captured a Resistance pilot!
These were just too clever.
My brother is way more into the Spidey areas of the Marvelverse than I am. I guess that's Gwenom and ... others. I've never liked Spider-Man.
Kylo Ren peruses the pink kitty artwork with a feminist agenda.
I'm hoping to be able to go to DragonCon too, but that depends on a lot of things. Hopefully C2E2 2018 is in my future as well!
P.S. If you happen to recognize yourself as one of the cosplayers in a photo, let me know so I can credit you for your awesomeness!!!

Official statements from Automobile Club de l'Ouest and Aston Martin Racing on the loss of Allan Simonsen in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
At 15h09 the No.95 Aston Martin Vantage GTE, driven by Allan Simonsen of Denmark, exited the track at high speed at the Tertre Rouge corner on his fourth lap of the race.
The driver was immediately attended on the scene by the doctors from the Automobile Club de l'Ouest's Medical Service.
In a serious condition, Allan Simonsen was transferred immediately to the Circuit Medical Centre where he died soon after due to his injuries.
Allan Simonsen's family has been informed immediately by David Richards, Principal of the Aston Martin Racing team.
Allan Simonsen, an experienced driver aged 34, had taken part in seven 24 Heures du Mans.
His team mates in the No.95 car were his fellow countrymen, Christoffer Nygaard and Kristian Poulsen.
The Automobile Club de l'Ouest wishes to express its great sadness following this incident, and extends its deepest condolences to the family and those close to Allan Simonsen.
The Automobile Club de l'Ouest will make no further statement while the exact reasons for the accident are still being wholly determined.
Aston Martin Racing statement
Aston Martin to continue in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Following the ACO's media statement concerning the tragic death of Aston Martin Racing driver Allan Simonsen, and at the specific request of his family, the team will continue to participate in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in tribute to Allan.

Guest Column: Time to run as write-in candidate after losing appeal
By David Soll
Sometimes it is hard to write about an issue that directly affects you without sounding a bit callous. But here I am speaking to you, the reader, from the heart.
I cannot help but be disappointed that I lost my appeal on a technicality that was beyond my control. The court hearing that took place Feb. 15 was to determine if my appeal against the electoral board of Loves Park to remove me from the ballot was properly done or not. The foundation for the original reasoning for my petitions being challenged never even came up at the hearing.
The technicality in question appears to have been a minor misunderstanding between the court clerk and my lawyer on the exact payment amount for filing. By the time this issue was noticed by the court clerk, the business day was at an end. So, the appeal was not officially filed until the following Tuesday, making the filing date a day later than is allowed by law to be accepted. The decision by the judge to allow this technicality and not hear my appeal effectively removes my name from being printed on the ballot.
Regardless of the circumstance, not all is lost, as I am proud to announce and declare myself a "write-in" candidate for Loves Park City Council, Ward 2. I filed on the final day to guarantee the good people of Ward 2 of Loves Park will have a choice in the consolidated election on April 9 about who will be their alderman.
Even though my opponent and his lawyers used a technicality to keep my name from appearing on the ballot, I am still able to run. So now, my opponent must actually campaign to keep his job.
For my part, I know it is harder to win a "write-in" candidacy, but certainly not impossible. I am up for this challenge, and now it is up to me to prove my worth as a viable candidate for city council.
David Soll is a write-in candidate for Loves Park City Council, Ward 2. He will face incumbent Charles Frykman on the April 9 ballot.

CHESTER, Pa. – It was not a play the Philadelphia Union ever practiced.
But as Chivas USA players surrounded referee Jorge Gonzalez to vehemently protest getting called for an illegal back-pass to goalkeeper Dan Kennedy, Michael Farfan knew exactly what he was going to do with the rarely-seen indirect free kick.
"I was watching after the call was made and Mike was lining that up for about two minutes," said Union manager John Hackworth, who was ejected from the game just minutes earlier for arguing a no-call and watched the play unfold from the tunnel. "You could tell he was going there."
OPTA Chalkboard: Union improve in second half en route to scoring three unanswered goals
After patiently waiting for the chaos to stop, the Union then perfectly executed the free kick from about seven yards out. Farfan rocketed the ball over the horde of Chivas USA players in front of him and into the top of the net after getting a tap from Sebastien Le Toux, giving the Union a permanent lead in what ended up being a 3-1 victory.
"You could tell right away that Michael said, 'Hey, I got this. If you just put it to where I can get it, I'm going to put this on the roof,'" Hackworth said. "And he did. He aimed it perfectly. He's a great player that way. He's got excellent technique."
Despite being so close to goal, it was not an easy play to score on. Chivas put essentially their entire team in front of the goal and then the Goats' players charged toward Farfan right when Le Toux made the tap.
"I was pretty confident," Farfan said. "I knew they were going to come rushing out so I had to put it over their heads. I was just trying to make sure I didn't put it over the bar."
READ: Philadelphia suddenly spoiled with midfield options
Union captain Brian Carroll has been in the league for 11 years but noted he's only seen the illegal back-pass called "once or twice" in his professional career. And because it happens so infrequently, how you handle the ensuing indirect free kick is "playground ball stuff."
"It's not easy even though it's so close to the goal," Carroll said. "Credit to the guys for coming up with that designed play and making it happen."
The goal was Farfan's first of the season. Even better, the game-winning strike happened in his first-ever professional matchup against his twin brother Gabriel Fabrian and with their mother watching the game live from the stands.
"That's probably the most difficult goal that he's had," Union right back Sheanon Williams said. "The technique to sky it to the top of the net is great. That's good for him. I think it will build his confidence and hopefully he'll continue to score more goals going forward."

TORONTO - Toronto FC scored a major win and a major loss in New England on Saturday.
One of the gutsiest defensive performances of the season, withstanding a second-half of constant pressure preserved a 1-0 victory over the New England Revolution after an early goal put it ahead. But the club may have lost the one player that has contributed more to their good play of late than anyone else.
A freak turn on the Gillette Stadium turf sent Danny Koevermans falling to the ground clutching his knee in obvious pain. His future this season is in doubt.
The injury occurred in the 38th minute when Koevermans was to take a shot and was challenged by A.J. Soares, who was able to nudge the ball off Koevermans for a corner. But in the contact, Koevermans' leg landed awkwardly and he appeared to twist his knee.
The injury dampened a good road performance for Toronto FC. On a few occasions, TFC broke through the Revolution defence for clear shots on goal. Luis Silva made no mistake on his chance in the seventh minute, working a nice give and go with Koevermans and sliding a shot pass Bobby Shuttleworth to give TFC the lead.
A few minutes later, Ashtone Morgan sent Koevermans alone but his shot went wide. Midway through the half, Koevermans set up Ryan Johnson whose shot was saved by Shuttleworth.
Koevermans' injury opened the door for Andrew Wiedeman, who came to TFC yesterday from FC Dallas in the trade that sent Canadian international Julian de Guzman south, to see his first action.
The second half was played almost entirely in Toronto FC's half of play. Lee Nguyen, Benny Feilhaber, Fernando Cardenas, and Saer Sene all had numerous opportunities to equalize for the Revolution.
However, strong play in the back end particularly from Richard Eckersley and Logan Emory in the centre back positions prevented many balls from getting to goalkeeper Milos Kocic.
But TFC couldn't stop everything, so Kocic was forced to make several good saves. He stopped a good shot by Feilhaber midway through the half then immediately made a stop on a shot by Sene. With 10 minutes remaining, Jerry Bengtson headed a ball from close range that Kocic had to react quickly to keep out. Joseph took the rebound into the net but did so with his hand earning nothing more than a yellow card for his efforts.
Toronto FC had a few opportunities to extend the lead, the best being a late effort from Silva that was saved by Shuttleworth, but the half belonged to its defensive efforts.
It is the first two-game winning streak for Toronto FC (4-11-4) who will try to extend their good run against the Colorado Rapids on Wednesday at BMO Field.

The long term trend of car dependence has been a source of growing debate among scholars and enthusiasts, whether or not the shift to the millennial generation is marked by a decrease in car ownership and a change in driving patterns. Given the rippling effects that significant declining car use could have on the American economy and its development moving forward, eyes are watching closely to see whether or not its actually happening.
So are we driving less? U.S. PIRG says, "yes." According to a recent report that compiled data from 100 urban locations around the U.S. from 2006-2011, the once unquestionable dedication to cars seems to be retreating across the country.
In a sweeping glance across the nation, the study found a decrease in the proportion of workers commuting by private vehicle in 99 of the 100 metro areas. 86 cities boasted a decrease in households with more than two cars while 84 reported an increase in the percentage of households without cars at all (I am one of those myself). As of 2011, 9.3% of the households in America were carless.
The majority of the country also saw decreases in vehicle miles traveled per capita and an increase of transit passenger miles per capita. In spite of the recession, the past five to seven years have seen new transit projects open up in cities across the country. Amtrak has seen its ridership increase year over year, peaking at yet another record in fiscal 2013 with 31.6 million passengers–"its tenth ridership record in eleven years."
Driving Forces of Decline
The quick and easy answer that most of us would jump to for why driving has been decreasing is the recession. After all, the data even points to 2007 being the peak of vehicle miles driven in America, right before the beginning of the financial downturn. The report, however, says no, arguing that driving has declined more steeply in areas less affected by the recession. I am not totally convinced on this point, thinking that persistent unemployment has to have provided at least some of the impetus for people driving less.
The study contends that other forces are responsible for curbing Americans' desire to get behind the wheel including:
- Demographic change of aging baby-boomers, leaving families with fewer years transporting kids around
- Rising price of gasoline
- Rising use of alternative transportation
- Increase in working remotely / from home
- A waning desire for people to spend extended hours every day commuting in a car
Cars, and how we use them (or not), will be one of the defining variables of our society's energy use over the course of the coming decades. In many ways, our cultural footprint and its resulting energy use have been built around utilizing automotive mobility. The evolution of our urban street grids as well as the birth and growth of the suburban model represent an archetype that places the majority of travel responsibility on the shoulders of cars. The report correctly notes:
"Over the last century, the United States has built a policy infrastructure that gives cars top priority in addressing transportation problems. Local planning and zoning rules often prevent compact, mixed-use development and require developers to provide copious amounts of parking (passing the costs along to customers and workers) without providing similar access to transit riders, bikers and pedestrians."
Here, here.
We are at a point where we can reassess a series of questions at the same time: where we drive, how we drive, what we drive and why we drive. The answer to each question can influence the outcome of the rest.
How much space we allocate to driving as opposed to other forms of transit can reshape our street grids both inside and outside of our cities, giving way to stronger communities and street-level commerce.Whether or not the country makes a broader migration to electric or plug-in-hybrid-electric vehicles could affect distances people tend to travel and how our cars play a key role in our national power grid. I recently looked into how much more efficient it would be for us to burn our oil for electricity used for driving rather than burning it in internal combustion engines as gasoline.
The authors of the report and I see eye-to-eye on recommending the path forward:
"A rethinking of transportation plans using the best, most current information is likely to reveal that many projects no longer make sense, as well as new priorities that demand increased investment. Short term and long-term transportation plans are filled with highway projects that were planned under very different expectations of future travel growth. Many of these "legacy projects" were originally proposed decades ago, and approved based on assessments of future travel since shown to be incorrect."
Cities First, Then Beyond
It is true that decreasing car miles traveled in American cities is an easier task than trying to do the same in the suburbs outside of them. Even the country's densest cities like New York still have an amazing amount of untapped pedestrian, biking and transit mobility that could be realized through a redefinition of how the acreage of the urban grid is used. In the grand scheme of how the city functions an evolution away from car-centric agendas to those that focus on pedestrians (the true lifeblood of any successful urban environment) is feasible over a number of years.
Cities also account for a large chunk of Americans and over the past decade they have been growing faster than the population of the country over all. The U.S. PIRG report claims that the 100 cities it includes in its report includes 53 percent of the nation's citizens. But what about the rest?
The suburban archetype is not so easily altered. It is a bit of a different animal. The solutions proposed by New Urbanists like Ellen Dunham-Jones and June Williamson could add density to our existing suburbs, but the veins of transit are still inherently tied to car travel, making deeper infrastructural changes necessary to give people a viable possibility of a "car-optional" neighborhood.

Happy Summer Solstice! 7 ways to trim your summer energy bill.
Summer solstice is today, bringing along with it the longest stretch of daylight in the calendar year. In a fitting debut for the summer season, too, a heat wave is spreading across much of the eastern United States this week. Temperatures are expected to reach the high 90's in Chicago, New York, and Boston. Flipping on the air conditioner means energy use will climb right along with the temperature, and you can't afford to be lax when it comes to controlling your monthly bills. Fortunately, there are a number of easy ways to reduce your energy bills this summer.
David Bakke lives in Atlanta and contributes saving tips and financial advice to Money Crashers Personal Finance.
1. Adjust your thermostat as the outdoor temperature rises
Summer solstice, which falls this year on June 20, 2012, is the longest day of the calendar year – and often one of the hottest. But it's wise to start adjusting your home's temperature gradually, well before the hottest months of the year are in full swing. Raising your thermostat by just three degrees can save you as much as 20 percent on your energy bill. To make the transition easy, raise the temperature by just one degree every week over the course of three weeks. Your family might not even notice the difference.
Reducing home energy costs does not need to involve costly home improvements or major lifestyle changes. In fact, a few simple adjustments may be all it takes to save hundreds of dollars this summer. And if you need a little extra incentive, just think of all the ways you could spend or invest the money you save.
What other ways can you think of to save on energy costs this summer?

Altadis Rejects Second Bid
- April 10, 2007 |
- By Michael Moretti
Calling yesterday's offer still not high enough, Spain's Altadis S.A. rejected a second unsolicited takeover bid from Britain's Imperial Tobacco Group.
The revised bid came in at $12 billion euros ($16 billion), a 4.4 percent increase over the initial offer in mid-March, which came in at 11.5 billion euros ($15.3 billion). This equates to 47 euros per share, up from 45 euros per share.
"Imperial's revised proposal fails to reflect the strategic value of the company, the diversity of its unique assets, or its prospects for future growth and [the Board of Directors] has therefore unanimously decided to reject it," said Altadis in a statement similar to the one it issued in March rejecting the initial offer.
Altadis, the world's largest cigarmaker, has a 50 percent stake in Cuba's Habanos S.A., the worldwide distributor of Cuban cigars, as well as sole ownership of Dominican-made Montecristo and H. Upmann producer Altadis U.S.A., which is based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
"The euro 47 per share represents a full and fair price for Altadis," said Imperial, the world's fourth largest publicly traded tobacco company, in a statement following the rejection.
As reported in the March 27 issue of Cigar Insider, cigars would be a smaller part of this deal than cigarettes. In addition to its cigar and logistics business, Altadis makes Gitanes and Galouises cigarettes. Imperial, which is headquartered in Bristol, England, makes Davidoff and West cigarettes, among many others. It also makes Drum rolling tobacco and has an extremely small cigar business, with a machine-made brand called Classic that it sells in the United Kingdom. The company had sales of £11.7 billion ($23 billion) in 2006.
Altadis had sales of 4 billion euros ($5.3 billion) in 2006. Sales of cigarettes, the biggest sector at 1.7 billion euros, declined 14.5 percent. Cigar sales were up 0.4 percent to 888 million euros ($1.2 billion). While cigarettes are the primary gem, cigars are part of the allure that Altadis holds for Imperial. "I think Imperial is quite interested in the Altadis cigar business," said a tobacco sector analyst. "Imperial has always stressed it is a multiproduct tobacco company." Altadis also has a much greater sales presence in the United States, virtually unknown territory to Imperial. "The U.S. offers great potential for the group," wrote Imperial in its latest annual report.
Imperial said that "it continues to believe that a combination with Altadis is strategically compelling and in the interests of both companies' shareholders."

Many homeowners are under the impression that they should update their traditional water heater to a tank-less water heater system. In reality, even the best electric or gas type tank-less water heater on the market can prove costly in the long run. The price alone for the tank-less product can turn anyone away from purchasing one, especially when a side-by-side comparison shows that storage tank types are less than half the price of the tank-less water heater.
Even the best tank-less hot water heater doesn't provide a continual consistent temperature when you turn on the faucet. It takes time to get the water heated and a slight trickle of water from the sink doesn't register the tank-less technology to heat this minimal amount of water.
Installation is not a simple swap out like changing out a tank type water heater. Many times significant re-piping of the water system needs to be done to accommodate the different location needed to install the tank-less water heater. Yearly maintenance can prove costly and far exceed any cost saving you may get in fuel consumption. Before you contact someone that does tank-less water heater installation, contact the experts to save you money both up front and in the long run.
Thankfully, there are other systems on the market that can save you time on the install, save you money on maintenance and give you efficiency rivaling the best tank-less water heater. The Bradford White ICON System is the perfect alternative solution. Using the laws of physics and advanced control technology, the Bradford White ICON System is energy efficient and provides a new standard for water heating systems. Here at Expert Plumbing Service, Inc. we stand by this product as a strong competitor to even the best tank-less water heater systems on the market.
