It is no secret that European stakeholders are preparing for a future without certain types of refrigerants and some of the technologies that have provided the cold storage capacity we have needed for a productive cold chain. We have seen the European Union begin devising and implementing strategies for this future. Now the European Partnership for Energy and the Environment (EPEE) has stepped up with an announcement of their new plan for taking the heating and cooling industry into the future as part of the EU Energy Union framework.
The EPEE's strategy announcement lays out four distinct areas they plan to work on between now and the end of the year. Those areas are:
- effective energy use utilising a holistic approach
- increased consumer awareness of energy efficient solutions
- enforcement of EU legislation
- developing an equal focus on both cooling and heating.
How will the organisation's strategy directly affect the portable cold storage industry? By reshaping how we offer solutions to customers in light of new energy efficiency standards, new equipment, and future refrigerants we have not even begun to use yet. The combination of the EPEE strategy and the EU Energy Union framework will affect everything from hiring a walk-in freezer to temporary fridge trailer hire.
Holistic Approach to Energy
Those of us in the portable cold storage industry are especially interested in seeing what the EPEE comes up with in terms of a holistic approach to energy efficiency. By definition, the word 'holistic' denotes looking at the energy efficiency issue by considering the plethora of individual components and their interaction and interdependence on one another. A holistic approach will not focus only on refrigerants, for example, it will also include physical hardware, how cold storage systems are implemented, new technologies, etc.
The idea here is to ensure that the heating and cooling equipment of tomorrow offers maximum performance with the least amount of energy consumption possible. What energy is consumed must be produced in a sustainable way and with very little impact on the environment. Reaching such lofty goals requires us to rethink everything we know about refrigeration and its heating cousin. However, there will be a day when Europe reaches its energy efficiency goals while also implementing a more efficient cold chain for food service, medical, and industrial use.
A Brighter Tomorrow
Right now, our industry is focusing on coming into compliance with new regulations revolving around old and new refrigerants. Who knows what the cold storage equipment of tomorrow will look like. Whatever happens, you can rest assured that the strategy now being developed by the EPEE and others will make our industry better.
Fridge Trailers For Hire (2.4 M)
A purpose-built medium capacity fridge trailer ideal for extra chilled storage. This trailer will suit the catering trade in particular, as well as those organising outdoor events and off-site catering activities. It has a capacity of approximately 6 cubic metres (internal).
Icecool Trailers is proud to be part of an industry that provides such a valuable service to so many people. Our freezer and fridge trailers protect food from spoilage, keep medical supplies safe, and provide the cold storage space industrial clients need for their equipment and supplies. We serve our clients across England and Wales with reliable equipment, in-house maintenance, and 24-hour call out.
We invite you to contact Icecool Trailers for all of your portable cold storage needs. From Bristol to Hampshire, we can get you set up with the trailers or walk-in rooms you need. London customers can feel free to call us for emergency two-hour service.

Yesterday, Sustain:Green launched a MasterCard that rewards its users with carbon offsets, giving individuals a way to reduce their carbon footprint and fund the Mata No Peito rainforest preservation project in Brazil.
Numerous studies point to manmade emissions as being one of the biggest factors in global climate change, and on the heels of the hottest year on record, Sustain:Green's CEO, Arthur Newman, believes that a biodegradable credit card with carbon offset rewards is a welcome solution for customers looking for another way to live more sustainably.
After recycling, reusable grocery bags, and turning down the thermostat, the options most people have to reduce their carbon footprint usually fall into three categories, too difficult, too expensive, or not possible," Newman said in a press release. "Just by using our card for purchases they would make anyway, consumers can shrink their carbon footprint for free, every day, while also helping to preserve rainforests critical to combatting climate change. We hope they will use the card in conjunction with other carbon reduction lifestyle changes, such as fuel efficient transportation choices."
For every dollar they spend, Sustain:Green reduces card users' carbon footprints by two pounds (fine print excludes cash advances and returned merchandise), and by an initial 5,000 pounds upon first use (within 90 days). There is a personal online dashboard where users can track their carbon offset credits and calculate their carbon footprint. The rewards are automatically recorded on the American Carbon Registry and 100 percent of the money spent buying carbon offsets to reduce users' carbon footprints is allocated to the Mata No Peito project to preserve, protect and reforest Brazilian rainforests.
In this economic climate, will users opt to benefit the planet over receiving cash rewards or accruing travel points? Outside of the green community, will users sign up? And, millennials, who are generally thought to gravitate toward causes and sustainable lifestyles, tend to shy away from credit cards, with Forbes reporting that 63 percent do not have them.
In an email interview with 3p, Newman was optimistic.
I would not want to minimize the size of the green community. If last year's Climate Marches demonstrated anything, it is that there is a substantial community of dedicated individuals committed to taking action. Also, market research shows that the vast majority of consumers believe climate change is a serious threat, are likely to switch to brands that support a cause, and consider sustainability in selecting a product/brand. While we do expect our product to have particularly strong appeal to Millennials, the interest in green brands extends across age groups. That being said, we also have a prepaid card coming out in a few months that we feel will be particularly appealing to Millennials.
Those cash rewards and travel points? They shouldn't be too hard to give up, since Newman says they take so long to accumulate and many users never cash them in. When using this card, he says, users can see their rewards directed toward rainforest preservation every day.
There have been green credit cards offered in the past, but Newman believes this card has a unique set of benefits.
The Sustain:Green MasterCard combines four great features that have never been offered together: (1) personal carbon footprint reduction, (2) direct financing of rainforest preservation/reforestation programs, (3) a biodegradable card addressing the problems of adding 1 – 1.5 billion cards to landfills each year, and (4) a close relationship with a major non-profit carbon registry, the American Carbon Registry.
It could be a double-edged sword to promote credit card use – which when used responsibly can help your credit score, and used irresponsibly can impact your financial stability – as a tool against climate change, where the more you use it, the more you offset your carbon footprint. One perk would be if there could be additional carbon offset rewards when users purchased items that promoted sustainable living like public transportation passes and bicycles, and paid the balance in full at the end of the month.
In a year, we would like to see the numbers: how many people have signed up, how many pounds of carbon were offset by their use, the progress of the rainforest project and the number of plastic cards this biodegradable card has kept out of landfills. If this card has a significant impact on carbon emission reduction, it could pave the way for more sustainable credit card rewards and more user adoption.

On the Wire: Ensenta Rolls Out Multi-Check Mobile API
Press Release
Ensenta, a payments technology provider, announces the release of its Multi-Check Mobile™, a streamlined way for businesses to deposit multiple checks at once with a smart phone or tablet.
Business users initiate the Multi-Check enabled app on their mobile devices, and flip the checks front-back, front-back, under the camera until all checks are captured – all without manually entering individual check amounts. Exceptions can be easily edited on the device and totals balanced.
Multi-Check Mobile addresses the growing need for financial institutions to provide businesses with an inexpensive deposit solution for low volume scenarios, e.g. less than 10 to 15 checks per day. Ensenta's fully automated API eliminates the cost of a desktop scanner and the related complexities of browsers and device drivers.
Multi-Check Mobile™ shares the same advanced risk mitigation tools and Business Remote Deposit Capture (bRDC) functionality as Ensenta's higher volume desktop scanner solutions. It also incorporates Mitek's MiSnap™ (MITK) video capture technologies for an optimal user experience.
"Our ability to offer Multi-Check Mobile together with Ensenta's Agile Risk Management tools that support high dollar deposits are key to driving RDC adoption for business users." said Louise Steller, vice president of product strategy at Ensenta.
"Using a mobile device to capture multiple checks in a single session, makes for a great user experience, and is easy for the financial institution to support. Our Multi-Check Mobile™ API is available for integration into existing mobile banking apps."

I think I have shared with you before that I am NOT a builder. This tutorial will help other non-builder's make fun pieces for decorating their homes. This display shelf project started with this small ironing board and napkin holder purchased at a thrift shop.
The ironing board had some metal brackets on the back for a stand that had to be removed. The holes left by the bracket were filled with wood putty, and the putty was sanded when dry.
Then I measured my two miniature irons from front to back. One was 3 1/2" and the other 4". I sized my napkin holder sides with about an inch of difference in length.
I love this type of project. The napkin holder sides have a nice shape and are finished, unlike using a piece of scrap wood. Easy all the way!
Then the napkin holder sides that are now SHELVES are screwed in from the back of the ironing board and a sawtooth hanger is added at the top. I rarely use the nails that come with the sawtooths, especially when I will be displaying irons. I used a little longer nails.
I base coated my shelf with Rustoleum Painter's Touch satin paint in Canyon Black, and then brushed on two coats of ASCP in Old White.
I then sanded the piece with 220 grit sandpaper and stenciled on the word "IRON" with Darice Poster 1" Alphabet Stencils. I also waxed the shelf with DecorArt Americana Creme Wax.
The top miniature iron is a vintage Lady Dover toy iron, and the bottom one, my mom tells me is a salesman's sample.
This is my farmhouse style laundry room, with my kitchen through the doorway to the left. I love decorating my laundry room because it's seen every day not just for laundry but just passing through.

The Big Empty
It is time for that penny!
The Big Entry
I talked to Bunch Thursday morning.
We are trying to get two solar pumping units installed and our primary discussion was an update and timing issue with them. Bunch was busy. We are all busy. Our lives are chaotic, but they are the lives we live.
Thursday, March 10, however, was a particularly stressful day for the folks at Elbrock Water Services. They were on the program for that evening's 6:45 time slot in the "Calling Washington HOME to the Border" meeting at Animas. Bunch and his mother, Tricia Elbrock, were asked to speak about the border violence and its impact on local businesses. They are very important in the discussion because of the role they play in the provision of water infrastructure throughout the Bootheel. They are constantly exposed to the lawless border maintaining those services to ranches and citizens alike. Theirs is the business recently shocked with the seizure of one of their service trucks and the kidnapping of an employee.
"We are constantly worried about our safety," Bunch acknowledged.
While the rest of the nation knows little or nothing, our rural community knows about the kidnapping. We know about the encounter and the seizure of the vehicle. We know about the hood put over the head of the employee, we know what they told him, and we know where they left him. What we don't know is how to get national leadership's attention in the matter. There is a diminishing bridge of communication between the federal government and us … ordinary citizenry.
The big empty
I can remember the first time I was in what to me was the 'Big Empty'. It was a time of decades ago when there was no paved road from Hachita to Animas. It was a dirt road and it ran along the recently abandoned east bound rail line of the Southern Pacific Railroad. We were quail hunting and the concentration of birds was amazing. It made a quail hunter out of me at that time of my life.
The Big Empty thought came to me as I sat on a rock still thinking about what I had just witnessed. A covey of scaled quail had crossed the road in front of us in the big curve across the valley to the west from Hachita and I had given chase with my Sweet 16. I was trying to get a shot when out of the open creosote right in front of me bounded one of the great mule deer bucks witnessed in my life. He was magnificent. I watched him initially from a line of sight down the gun barrel and then with eyes wide as I dropped the barrel toward the ground. He tilted up the hill to a point on the crest, turned to look at me, and was then gone.
Quail, deer, big sky, and miles of basins and mountains ranges were the mix of memories in the Big Empty, but there was also something else that only escalated while the most eventful of youthful images have declined. Human and drug trafficking operations have found the geography and isolation of that border area ideal for entry.
In fact, the Big Empty has become … the Big Entry.
The Big Entry
Years ago, we identified the characteristics making the Arizona smuggling corridors so dangerous. The Bootheel, New Mexico's version of those corridors is blessed (or cursed) with the same features. North /south drainage and mountain range orientation, strategic high points of observation, a scarcity of rural resident American citizens with assets at risk, the domination of federal lands with agency management (and or de facto representations thereof), the inability of Border Patrol to go anywhere at any time, and designated federal lands with safe havens (or de facto representations thereof) are all present and contribute to widespread lawlessness. The cumulative vacuum has resulted in chaos.
Drug cartels control the northward migration of all illicit trade and they "own" those corridors.
The Albuquerque Journal carried the story on the front page above the fold the morning after the meeting. That is quite a feat for a place like rural Animas. The local folks told their story once more and generated interest, but where does that leave them and their discussion?
I saw Hank later that same afternoon. He had come from the Bootheel and a pasture that had several hundred head of heifers turned out in it. Its location is about 20 miles north of the border in the Playas Valley. He said there were more illegal alien tracks than there were heifer tracks in the pasture. He said there were mountains of trash. So, while the local folks reached out to a world gone mad, the illegal trade of humans and drugs continued unabated.
The Big Entry is … business as usual.
The Truth
Are we to the point that we must recognize there is no absence of communication to Washington on this matter? Washington has made its position known. We just haven't wanted to accept the truth. We are just too naïve to realize our issues are unimportant.
Both major political parties have too many vested interests in the cross border trade. Washington has long decided that special interest is the driving force. The Democrats want votes and nature preserves. The Republicans want labor. They both want the money and promulgate the constitutional upheaval that is taking place. The facts are clearly defined that votes, nature preserves, labor and constitutional upheaval trump American security and citizenry pleas.
"Calling Washington HOME to the Border" is certainly on our minds.
Calling Washington home period … may be the better choice.
Stephen L. Wilmeth is a rancher from southern New Mexico. "We are to the point our own words don't make any sense to us. Our best choice is to send every elected representative a penny and … suggest they accumulate enough for a ticket home."

Has anyone experienced issues with battery draining whilst car parked ?
not with my a3 but plenty of times with older cars!
Could have a minor drain from many places to be honest, its anyones guess! Best get an auto electrician to check to see if there is a drain when its turned off, if there is they can normally source it.
Yeah ipod lead killed my battery when i went on holiday for a week ..
Shouldn't drain off, left mine at airport for nearly three weeks over christmas in the freezing weather we have apparantly had and it started fine and dandy....
Having same problem!! My hazard warning light doesn't turn off in the usual 90 seconds, stays on for about an hour! Thought it was down to me changing my headunit but I've just put the old one back in and no change! Battery is new, holds a charge fine when I left it disconnected over christmas and new year!
Such a pain
Anyone else have this problem and fixed it?????
Ok thanks to all for ideas. Spent day fault finding and conclusion is [So far!]. Battery drain appears to be due to Bose Sat Nav + system. Even with ignition off the Sat Nav is continuously trying to reboot/reload software from the Sat Nav CD. This drains betwen 2.5 and 3.3 A from the battery continuously. based on 72AH battery [factory] that equates to exhausting the battery in about 24Hrs which fits symptoms seen. For the moment I have pulled fuse on Bose Sat Nav/sound system untill I have more time [probably next weekend ]. There is a mention in the Bose/Sat Nav + manual about only upgrading software [from New CD] when the engine is running as it may drain battery otherwise, Sat Nav CD is the one thats been in there for the last 2yrs so unless system has lost its memory and thinks it needs to load from CD its not making much sense yet. Have checked CD reader reading OK [with a normal audio CD] and all is fine. Will see if local Audi dealer has any idea's tomorrow. Let you know progress!
Happened to mine about 6/7 times, they still couldn't find the problem, I have a 2008 rear bumper for sale if you wanna upgrade your rear look?

I've sent 512 clicks to Gateway.com so far this month with no sales.
And yet Dell Home has brought me 4 orders with only 248 clicks. Also Dell Business has had 10 orders with just 251 clicks.
Can someone share their conversion with Gateway? Doesn't seem much worth it to me right now.

Isn't gateway in Chapter 11 Bankrupsy protection. Heck ..I tried their indy program for 2 years and never once say a sale appear on thousands of clicks. have their AM or Todd run some test purchases off your links. Your doing better than me on the Dell end of it as they and MicroWarehouse seem to get skunked for months on end and the same traffic converts 1 in 40 clicks for TigerDirect.
Often it has to do with the reporting tags. That alone took TD 1 month to get to work properly last year. Neither Dell nor Gateway posty on any boards so I doubt their AM even bothers to verify sales reporting.

I'll try a little harder with TigerDirect. I've had 208 clicks with one sale and I'm at -$.10 for the month. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif[/img]
Thanks for the advice. I may just drop Gateway.

Just being here is a success
Dublin's quarter-final place is an act of survival and defiance.
Wins don't need to be stylish or resounding to have value, especially to a team down on its luck, so it was no surprise to see Dublin players fall to their knees in thanksgiving after they overcame Limerick in the final round of the qualifiers. It had been a character-defining afternoon. Twenty-five minutes in, David Breen breezed past Liam Rushe before scoring a goal that bolted Limerick eight points clear. Breen's actions appeared those of a man serving notice of Dublin's eviction from the Championship.
Eight points is not an insurmountable lead in hurling but the plodding demeanour of the Dublin players didn't augur well for a capital revival. In the RTE commentary box Anthony Daly, who has been in this place before, looked on. He saw the next few minutes as crucial. Dublin needed a few scores to keep breathing; if those scores went to Limerick it could turn ugly for a team struggling with confidence.
"There was a ten-minute period where it was make-or-break, heads might have dropped, but in fairness some of the leaders like Johnny McCaffrey, Ryan O'Dwyer, Paul Schutte, really stood up," notes Daly. "When you're eight points down you need fellas to stand up."
What would you have given Dublin's chances at eight down after 25 minutes only five weeks after being butchered by Galway? But they found something within themselves. They fired over the last four scores of the first half and by the interval Limerick's lead was halved. By all accounts the mood in the Dublin dressing-room was transformed. Those ten minutes were their salvation and lifeline. Chronic Limerick defending allowed Dotsy O'Callaghan in for the critical late goal and a point-scoring exhibition from Paul Ryan took them through by the skin of their teeth.
Mood is everything. The mood in the dressing-room, and whether a manager has the dressing-room, is of paramount importance to any team. It could not have been good in Tullamore the day they lost their Leinster quarter-final to Galway, with serious question marks over how the team was set up when facing a gale in the opening half. Until the resurrection against Limerick, that had characterised their summer.
"When Limerick got the first goal it looked like that could have been the final nail," says former Dublin player Liam Ryan. "I mean there were eight points in it, it was all Limerick, they had dominated and I think Daire Plunkett made one or two great runs and they just tacked on a few scores. Clawed their way back into it."
Five weeks earlier in Tullamore, Paul Ryan was replaced a minute from the end and his reaction betrayed a degree of mystification and frustration. It was a curious move given that he had contributed on the scoreboard and set up Eamon Dillon's goal after being introduced earlier in the game but Dublin's senses looked scattered on both sides of the line. The hours and days that followed presented Ger Cunningham with his greatest challenge since taking over from Daly, needing to keep a squad united and look honestly on their own failings. Having steered them into the final six while still waiting to find the form they feel they are capable of is reassuring and will bolster confidence in the set-up. They will hope that their best summer performance arrives today.
"There isn't a manager in Ireland who hasn't gone through that," says Daly, referring to heavy defeat. "Players talk. I remember going back to '96 (losing to Limerick) after winning the All-Ireland the year before having a few jars and hearing 'what the Jesus was Sparrow (Ger O'Loughlin) doing out wing-forward for the whole of the second half?' That is the nature of the beast but the beauty of the system now is you get another chance.
"Players talk, sure of course they do. I am sure that was questioned that day, how they lined up against Galway. An error was made on the day. He (Cunningham) won't be the first nor last to make one. It was not the easiest draw either (in the qualifiers). Laois did get a hockeying from Galway but still Laois in Portlaoise and the whole Cheddar thing, having quit and came back, and beaten Offaly, it wasn't a gimme by any means."
After Galway it became a human relations exercise, repairing morale and looking starkly at the forensics. For a while there was no guarantee of that being successful and in the wake of the win over Laois, evidently unhappy with being overlooked for selection, the experienced Michael Carton left the squad.
Players are not always right or justified in their actions but Carton's departure was bound to have some potential to further destabilise the situation. Laois, though, offered Dublin a chance to start the process of rehabilitation, and the management a chance to set out a team more in keeping with their strengths. The most obvious moves were sanctioned: bringing Rushe back to centre-back and Conal Keaney to full forward. "It takes a bit of bottle to row back," says Daly, "it was just a sensible move. I think they set up naively against Galway and they've learnt their lesson."
Ryan says a team in the place Dublin found themselves after Galway can go one of two ways. They either surrender or set out to "prove that is not where we are at the moment; it could be used as a rallying cry." He also makes the point that they should have defeated Galway the first day, and they had a good National League, reaching the semi-finals and unlucky not to make the final.
But the absence of any visible plan to counteract the force of the wind favouring Galway in the first half of the replayed Leinster quarter-final shook the confidence of players and management. Simon Lambert was placed in the eye of the storm at centre-back and by the time Rushe went back the damage had been done with three early Galway goals. Paul Schutte's selection gamble backfired. The absence of a sweeper almost defied belief.
After that experience, a win over Laois wasn't going to repair the damage; they needed lengthier counselling. Being still in recovery meant a good start looked essential against Limerick and when the opposite happened the omens looked bleak. In those few minutes before half-time the leaders they needed stepped forward. They may have been the least impressive of the six remaining contestants, but considering where they've come from, being here is a success in itself, an act of survival and some defiance. They return to Thurles with momentum, in a healthier frame of mind.
"I think there is huge room for improvement in this Dublin team," says Tommy Naughton, their former manager. "Waterford have been majestic all year but Dublin have a lot of good players. While they haven't been striking the really high notes yet they have a great chance. I would be very happy being in the position they are in going into this game; they are an experienced team and know they have a fantastic opportunity."
Feeding that conviction is the return of players to fitness, with their former All Star full-back Peter Kelly among those declared available, joined by one of their rejuvenated hurlers during the League, Niall McMorrow. In the Limerick match Dublin had to plan without Kelly - injured since the drawn match against Galway - and also Cian O'Callaghan, who filled the role against Laois. O'Callaghan, who had been having a fine season, is also ready to resume after illness. There are also signs in the last two games, notably in the later stages of the Limerick game, that Danny Sutcliffe is finding the form which made him Dublin's most important player until injury intervened at a critical time last year heading into the summer.
The encouraging form of the new players like O'Callaghan, Chris Crummey, Shane Barrett and Cian Boland, outstanding in the under 21 championship against Kilkenny, is also important to Dublin given the high age profile of some of the team. Cunningham has not been afraid to introduce young players and they have settled in quickly. To have those hurlers experiencing a run to the quarter-finals is a good return for a first season. Win today and Cunningham and his backroom team will have equalled Daly's two best achievements, when reaching the last four in 2011 and 2013.
Those advances have been countered to some extent by late injuries to Shane Durkin and Plunkett, the latter having felt like a fresh addition, even though he was previously established on the team. Plunkett had given the team renewed energy and his pace and runs against Limerick were influential, ending with two points, one of which should have been a goal. Against a running team like Waterford, he would be a valuable asset but his loss is McMorrow's gain.
"I would not be shocked at all if they kicked on and won again," says Daly. "I know they were on a training camp last weekend, the feedback is that they are very positive. Waterford only scored 16 points in the Munster final, they set up with the gamble of getting goal at some stage. If Gary (Maguire) makes a save from that goal chance and Dublin can pillage a goal at the other end they've a great chance."
They are far from the finished article, but it is starting to look a look more positive for all concerned.

Believing that he was just tired from all his hard work, he goes to the doctor. After a barrage of tests and two months waiting for the results, he finally returns to the doctor. The doctor tells him, "I have bad news, good news, and bad news, Senator. The bad news is that you only have six months to live. But the good news is that there's an operation that is 100% successful in curing this illness." "That sounds great, Doctor," says the Senator, "but what's the other bad news?" The Doctor replies, "The Department of Health and Human Services says the first available slot is seven months from today."

According to a recent study from Ticket City, Texas Longhorns fans are the eighth most engaged fan base in college football. The study took data on how many fans travel to see road games, how much they pay for tickets to those games, and how often they take to social media outlets like Facebook and Twitter to voice their opinions on their beloved program.
Texas earned a score of 82.11 according to the algorithm with the top program, the Michigan Wolverines, earning a score of 100. Despite what the study says I can't help but disagree on the nature of Longhorns fans. As a UT grad and massive Texas football fan it hurts to say this, but overall Longhorn fans are lazy.
Look no further than the 'Horns stadium, Darrell K Royal – Texas Memorial Stadium, for proof. On many game days the stands look nearly barren right up until kickoff and sometimes don't fill out until well into the first quarter, if at all. Fans also leave early in droves when one team, be it Texas or their opponent, gets more than a two possession lead. Be it a group of students chanting, "Let's go to the bars", or alums looking to beat traffic the stands empty prior to the post-game playing of the Eyes of Texas on most occasions.
Numbers aren't the only issue though. The passion of those who show up is the biggest problem. Last season then Longhorns' safety Kenny Vaccaro said he preferred to play on the road because DKR was never loud enough, and he is absolutely right. DKR is a quiet stadium despite boasting the highest capacity of any university in the state at 100,119. To give credit where credit is due, Longhorn nation did rise to Vaccaro's challenge on Oct. 6 2012 when Texas hosted the West Virginia Mountaineers. It was the largest crowd in UT history with 101,851 in the stands and as an attendee I can say that it was a rowdy night in DKR. Fans were deafening and you could tell that it made an impact on both teams.
Then WVU quarterback Geno Smith had trouble communicating with his offense and the Texas D was feeding off of the energy of the crowd. It was beautiful. Longhorn fans finally came out and showed how much of a home field advantage DKR is capable of providing by living up to the motto blasted on shirts all over the Austin campus: "Come Early, Be Loud, Stay Late, Wear Orange". One game isn't enough though. Texas lost that game to WVU in a 48-45 shootout, and the fans went back to being lazy and skipping games.
I went to every Texas home game in 2012, and none disappointed me as much as the Thanksgiving Day game against the TCU Horned Frogs. Texas was trying to replace their longtime rival, the Texas A&M Aggies, and carry on the tradition of having a game on turkey day. UT had the Hex Rally during which a curse is put on the other team as they would always do for A&M. They wheeled out a t-shirt campaign that claimed, "New opponent, same Hex", but we life-long fans knew it was a crock and game day proved us right.
DKR was a ghost town. The stands in the south endzone that normally seat the band and students were vacant save the band. The entire stadium had massive gaps in the crowd. It was a sad display of the lack of passion that Texas fans have for their program and it isn't surprising that Texas lost that day.
Some schools, like those listed in Ticket City's study, support their football programs with obsession. I envy those schools. I am and will always be proud to be a Longhorn and I'll always support the football team like a man possessed no matter what their record is or what the scoreboard says. Sadly, I feel like I'm one of the few Texas fans with that mindset.
If Texas is going to get back to winning 10+ games and competing for conference and national titles on a yearly basis they need the fans to show up like they did for that WVU game every single game. Don't be that "fan" that waits until they are racking up wins to show up late in the season, then puts away their burnt orange seconds after a loss. Be a fan. For the love of God…come early, be loud, stay late, and wear orange.

MyEssayWriting.com - Essay Writing Services.
The novel is set in London in 1886 and follows the life of Mr. Verloc, a secret agent. Verloc is also a businessman who owns a shop which sells pornographic material, contraceptives, and bric-a-brac. He lives with his wife Winnie, his mother-in-law, and his brother-in-law, Stevie.
The novel begins in Verloc's home, as he and his wife discuss the trivialities of everyday life, which introduces the reader to Verloc's family. Soon after, Verloc leaves to meet Mr. Vladimir, First Secretary in the embassy of a foreign country (implied to be Russia). Although a member of an anarchist cell, Verloc is also secretly employed by Vladimir as an agent provocateur. Vladimir informs Verloc that he is far from an exemplary model of a secret agent and, in order to redeem himself, must carry out an operation - the destruction of Greenwich Observatory by a bomb explosion. Verloc later meets with his friends, who discuss politics and law, and the notion of a communist revolution. Unbeknownst to the group, Stevie, Verloc's brother-in-law, overhears the conversation, which greatly disturbs him.

"How do you get all of your writing done between work and parenting and living life?"
I don't know.
Asked the question, I'll usually offer up some kind of vague answer about time management, scheduling, early mornings, late nights, and the in betweens. I'll likely shrug it off, as if writing—for work, for the blog, for a broader scope—isn't a big deal. As if writing doesn't give me breath, doesn't restore my soul, doesn't reach down into the darkest depths of my soul and pull me out when I need it the most.
Readers here and in the many spaces I share my written voice don't see the stack of journals sitting directly to my left. I write in them regularly and sporadically. I come to them in silence, let the pen scrawl across the page in the quick-but-slow way that only a pen can; the pen-to-paper feeling fills me up, pushes me forward. Some of my best pieces of writing, read here or elsewhere, started as a cursive-and-print etching on the pages of a paper journal, on a piece of notebook paper stolen from my children, on the side of a church bulletin. Though other writings, beautiful and meaningful ones, started here or in Evernote or in other places where typing happens quickly, the words spilling onto the screen with such fervor I find it difficult to keep up.
Somewhere between the literal written word and the typed written word, I find meaning, I make sense, I feel feelings, I open up. In real life, in my everyday action with people, I guard myself carefully. An introvert by nature, it's easier to keep people at an arm's length than to look them in the eyes, to tell them all of the things. It isn't until I've known you long enough, deep enough, that my walls come tumbling down and you find yourself living in my inner circle. It's actually a detriment to real life people who want to be in my life, that pushing away thing I tend to do. Those people who live inside my computer don't get that… as much. I let them in, I let you in.
As for how I write and get it done, I have no magic answers. I hate when people answer the question with, "I just make time." I hate when people answer any question about things people do with that answer: running, exercising, cooking home cooked meals, reading, and so on. It smacks of judgment on the asker, as if the person asking the question isn't trying hard enough, doing enough, making enough time in their already jam-packed schedule. I don't judge people who don't write any more than I judge people who don't run; we do what we do.
I write when I can, when I squeeze it in between work and play and running and sleep. I write when my brain can't do anything else, when I get that feeling that bubbles up within my soul telling me that if I don't sit down and write right then, I might simply explode. I write in little snippets throughout the day: while running, while showering, while cooking dinner and dancing to 90s music. I lose some of these pieces, as the last mile of a run will wipe me out; I'll find myself sitting on the front stoop wondering, "What was that brilliant stroke of genius I had back at mile two?" Gone. I keep journals and notebooks everywhere. I jot things down at will, coming back to them later and thinking, "What on Earth did I mean by that?"
I write drafts upon drafts upon deleted, stupid, awful drafts. So much of what I write never makes it beyond the journal page, the Evernote notebook, the ddrafted post. So much of what I write gets dropped on the cutting room floor. Sometimes it's not about me and my perfectionism; sometimes it's simply about how the piece needed to be written out of my soul but simply doesn't need to be consumed by others. Sometimes writing is just for me. Or, rather: Writing has always been just for me, but I am given the choice to share it with others when I feel so inclined. Sometimes it helps or enlightens or informs or humors others; it always helps me.
I do not keep a strict editorial calendar for the blog like I do for work. I write about running on Mondays. I share 52 Weeks of Brotherhood on Wednesdays. I share some links on Sundays… sometimes. And the rest of the days? I write what I want. I share what needs shared. I seek out opportunities to submit my writing elsewhere, whether it's something I've already written or something I could write. I write when something happens in the news or in society that makes me passionate, makes me feel like maybe words can help or fix or heal or educate or just simply exist. I write things for work when I'm the right person to write the piece.
That's it. I have no words of wisdom about writing and submitting and managing the load of life with what is a writer's brain and heart other than this: Write it. Write when you can. Write what you can. Write until you can breathe again.

Vomit Party
Los Diorios De Chorro
(Both self-released)
From Northern California, Culo A Boca (Spanish for 'Ass To Mouth') are the first band whose name you'll find on the Wikipedia page of cult scat-porn movie '2 girls 1 cup'.Yes folks, they're really THAT sleazy. They've two lead singers, one a tattooed blonde bombshell in zombie makeup by the name of Fista Nogagreflexa, and the other a crazy Mexican wrestler in leopard print spandex pants known mysteriously as Pancho 'Diablo Culo' Verde. The rest of the band are equally monickered and also dress up as zombies: The Reverend BJ Gums, Sideburns McBlood, Es Steve, and Manny Vahina.
Debut CD album 'Vomit Party' provides the Culo blueprint. The CD includes an on-disk print of a pair of ample breasts, autographed by the entire band with the word 'Vomit' on one and 'Party' on the other. Meanwhile the slipcase artwork features a b&w cartoon of five obese women, one eating a large hamburger. The songs fly by thick and fast, from sea faring opener 'Captn Stabbn', to closing anthem 'Viva Culo A Boca' via such masterpieces as the tribute to human reproduction 'We Are Sperm', the cannibalistic 'Eat Your Face', catchy horror punk 'Muerto Friend' and Americana punk-ballad 'Bleeding Hearts Revue'. Further splatterings of fun provided by 'Droppin' Loads' and 'Rings On Fire'. Vomit Party is a riot of sex comedy, toilet humour and horror movies. Recommended!
The follow-up album Los Diorios De Chorro carries on where Vomit Party left off, a sleazy punk n' roll riot of amplified profanity. Album opener '2 Girls 1 Cup' is the song which got them onto Wikipedia, 'Cry Baby' is a prime slice of hip shakin' juke-box rawk n' roll, and the horror rock is provided by ode to cross-dressing Carpathians 'Trannies In Castlevania'. The full colour on disk print is a cool 'hamburger and crossbones' design which seems to be the Culo A Boca badge of honour. Also recommended!
Disgustingly entertaining, if you're mind is in the gutter you will find much to enjoy here. More info including how to buy the albums is available at 'The Official Culo A Boca Vomitorium'

Detectives from HMRC have been seen leaving the Cameron residence with a bulging, spooge-covered piggy bank, believed to belong to the PM.
After a torrid week for PM David Cameron, the intense media attention shows no signs of easing after the aforementioned item was removed by investigators. The pink, slimy, china-faced swine could be in for further turmoil if the piggy bank is found contain any funds which haven't been declared on his tax returns. Furthermore, ejaculating on the queen, constitutes a criminal offence (unless you're Prince Philip), and may result in a custodial sentence, or ideally, capital punishment.
The detectives were authorised to search the Downing Street premises in order to find evidence linking the PM to the Panama Paper scandal and his activity with the Blairmore investment fund. Instead, they appear to have recovered clear evidence of both the PM illegally sequestering coinage and his weird, insidious fetish for shoving his genitalia into dead pigs or pig-related objects.
Speaking about the allegations, Chancellor and life-long cunt George Osbourne said he was 'shocked and surprised' that Mr Cameron had chosen to hoard money in such a 'primitive and outdated manner'. He also recommended that the PM should stow his money in the Jersey Isles instead.
Spokespeople for Mr Cameron have been quick to quash any allegations of wrongdoing by the PM, saying that 'Mr Cameron doesn't avoid tax, he only evades tax'.

This book is amazing you should buy it! Great for teens and preteens! Couldnt put it down! THE SECOND ONE IS COMING OUT SOON!!! YAY(: so excited
This is the best book i have read in a long time. Not to mushy either! Lov it! Hope this helps ya'll
Wonderful and heartfelt. It showed that what hurts us can also make us so much stronger.
I was so impressed with this book, I read it in 2 days, and when I finished the first thing I did was go on line to see how many more of her books I could find to read. I was disappointed there were no other books written by her. I will keep her on my list of authors to read when her next book comes out.
I finished it in three days between work and family. It was never slow. I wanted to hear more about the people in the end of the book but i would still read it again.
I couldn't put this book. I couldn't wait to see what would happen next. And when I reached the end I wished there was more to read. I have read a lot of books in my lifetime and this is in my top 10 favorite. Just so enjoyable to read and actually picture this story happening.
You have got to read this i couldnt put it down!!!
It use to be free. What happened?
This book is so awesome i can relate to some parts of it and i get rapped up in it every time i start reading it.any body who likes a little romance,some sadness, and also some bad,would like this book. By:Jaci Carter Read on my mothers nook
The Rockstar's Daughter is a memorible book. The story line is kind of common. Not exactly the same but multiple books have a character experiencing the negative side of fame. Other than that this is great. At times the characters don't seem fully developed. Also I found that many parts were tedious and hard to get past. This is not the best book I have ever read, but I will recommend it for someone who wants alight summer read. The writing is a little above average and the style is plain. There are other books in the series, but tbe NOOK doesn't have them yet. So conclusivly, The Rockstars Daughter is a book that is not life changing, or inspirig, or extraordinary. It is funny, sweet, and quirky. I will deffinantly remember it. ~ Hannah
This book really changed my personal aspect on beimg famous
II have been wanting to read this book for a while now and I was not disappointed. During the course of the story I got to know Taylor well and as she was making the most important decision near the end of the story I was urging her not to do it. It gave great insight into the life of being a rock star and that it cannot be as glamorous or exciting as it always seems to be.
Add me.
Have you ever read a book that you couldn't help but like and felt like you would never forget it. Well, if you haven't experienced the feeling yet, get The Rockstar's Daughter and you'll know the feeling by heart. The Rockstar's Daughter is the perfect book for young teens. Keep writing Caitlyn Duff y!! ?
About a teenage girl who's mom is an acholic
Were you ever in a rush to grow-up? Did you ever feel like you were adult enough to "handle" the world? I enjoyed this book a lot. It was a refreshing break from all the Shifter, Vampire, and Regency books that I've been reading. I've got to tell you, this story took me back in time to when I was a youth. I thought the world laid at my feet and I could conquer it all! I "knew" it all too!! ~chuckles~ You'll find in, 'The Rock Star's Daughter', a young girl in her teens that goes through and deals with, some pretty difficult things. Does she always handle them in the proper way? Did we as teens? I won't give you any detailed spoilers~I don't like to and I believe each reader should experience a book for themselves. With that said, I will divulge that there is a death in the story…not telling you who! There are issues that she faces with boys and finding "yourself" (as a young girl goes through). It left me shaking my head one minute and cheering the next or vice versa. As always, there is the uncertainty of life that young people deal with. Will she be loved and accepted~will she find her place in this big ole world? This story provoked the "mother" in me and all I wanted to do is grab her and love her senseless. It's a very good read and I can't wait to read more from Caitlyn Duffy.
What a neto book. My favorite book ofcours.
Read this book in one night can't wait for the next one!
This was a very good read. I felt sorry for her and for the boy. Very glad that she got what she wanted in the end. Hopefully she makes another book to go with this one
This book is so good it only took me a week to read. This is the best book I have ever read and I have read alot. 100000000000000000000 stars. I would definitly reccomend this to any girl within the ages of 11-20. Or even higher of an age. Book well done. Nothing better. AMAZING.
Great spelling.haha i am a funny b*tch. Read this book for fun because of the title the main character is such a nerd. Love, J
I am WindStar this is Windclan if u would like to join my clan i am in need of a deputy
The story line was good, but she is drinking, making out with a guy multiple times, is pressured to have sex, and girls take off their bikini tops in front of collage boys. And she's 15. It was really disturbing. I didn't like it at all.
I love this book...everyone should read this :)

Out of curiosity - who has plans/resolutions for the new year and how will you use your filo to implement them?ReplyDelete
I'm planning on working out at least 3 times a week and I am also trying a new budgeting method. For the workouts I am going to use something a little like DIYFish's monthly tracker and colour code the days I work out plus have a week option (did it all go right - green, ok - yellow/orange nothing happened - red).
Budgeting/money stuffs is going to go into my Deskfax - I need to keep better records and this is big enough that I can scale bills and so on received down to fit without loosing the readability :)Replies
Rose, I have my daily 5 (silence, prayer, scriptures, journal, exercise) and then I reserve 1 pm-3pm M-F to work on 2 goals this year. The daily 5 are written in and checked off each morning and then in the time slot I just write which of the two goals I worked that day so I can see how much time I spend in both areas.Delete
That's a great system!ReplyDelete

We need better control of guns
In the wake of the tragic mass murders in Cumbria, I suggest we need to address our own growing gun culture in Ireland, where in excess of 220,000 firearms are legally held by citizens.
The problem, however, is that the vast majority of guns used in non-gangland murders, in suicides, in attempts to kill or injure a spouse or partner in domestic disputes, or in killings legally defined as manslaughter cases in Ireland, are legally held.
The weapons that Derrick Bird used to kill 12 people and injure scores of others were, according to media reports, a hunting rifle and a shotgun. Both types of guns are widely on sale and are easily accessible in Ireland.

Intelligent Design with Characteristic Mode Analysis
The theory of Characteristic Mode Analysis (CMA) is a well-known method originally proposed by Garbacz [1] and later refined by Harrington and Mautz [2] that allows for the analysis of arbitrary structures by solving a generalized eigenvalue equation derived from the Method of Moments (MoM) impedance matrix. The resulting eigenvalues and eigenvectors give insight into the resonating behavior of structures such as antennas. This helps designers to follow a systematic, intelligent approach rather than a brute force method, by looking at the eigenvalue spectrum and the eigenvector distribution [3].
Case Study: Antenna Design
In [4] CMA is used to design a mobile antenna operating in the LTE 1.8 GHz band. A predefined surface area is assumed on which the antenna will be etched, in this case a curved metal sheet on the outer edge of the PCB. CMA is then used to calculate the modal currents on the surface for the dominant modes at 1.8 GHz.
The antenna is designed by modifying the metal sheet systematically based on the modal current distribution.
In order to create a resonant current path, slots are cut into the curved metal sheet where the amplitude of the modal current is low, leaving metal strips where the modal currents are high. After each modification the modal significance (MS) is re-analysed to ensure that the resonance (MS = 1) is still at 1.8 GHz, and if necessary the sizes of the slots are tweaked to tune the resonance. In this manner a current path is determined which is inherently resonant.
The final design modal current, modal significance and corresponding S-parameters when the antenna is excited with an edge port.
The advantage of this approach is that it is more intuitive than standard optimisation algorithms and therefore the optimum design requirements can be met in significantly less iterations.
The design is then applied to a dual MIMO configuration.
Case Study: Antenna Integration
The PCB modal current distribution at resonance can be useful for various aspects during integration, including optimum placement of the antenna on the PCB, optimum cable routing for passive measurements, modification to PCB geometry and designing passive resonators. The focus of this study was primarily integration aspects, so components like the display frame and battery where investigated.
The display frame geometry is tweaked using CMA to design a passive resonator.
The modal currents exhibit higher strength at the sides of the PCB. This lends itself to the idea of a passive resonator loop design. In [5], the display frame width, length and spacing from the PCB is optimised with CMA to resonate at the same frequency as the antenna, 2.6 GHz. The simulated MIMO performance shows improvement for several significant parameters including the S-parameters (reduced Snn and Smn), radiation efficiency and mean equivalent gain (MEG) with an acceptably low envelope correlation coefficient.
Combined performance of the antenna, display frame and battery.
CMA was also used to find the optimum placement of the battery connector with respect to the antenna and the spacing of the battery from the PCB. The combined performance including display frame and battery are shown above, compared to the original antenna and PCB only. An improvement of 5% in radiation, 5 dB in coupling and up to 1 dB in MEG where achieved.
LTE performance of the integrated dual channel MIMO antenna.
The major advantages that CMA offered in this study were two fold: namely the CMA simulations are fast (in the order of a few minutes) and bring valuable insight through the modal currents, which helped improved an antenna design during the integration process.

FACE IT: Beauty with Amanda Care
The Next Big Thing!
Channel's resident beauty expert, Amanda Care of Face It in Devonport, gives readers a monthly insight into what's happening in the world of skincare. This month she has discovered…
I'm very excited this month to be launching, what I think, is going to be the next biggest thing in skin rejuvenation.
You may have heard of 'skin needling', or one of the various other names it goes by, such as Dermarolling, Collagen Induction Therapy or Micro Needling. My initial thoughts were not favourable. The treatment sounded terrible, and I couldn't imagine wanting to use it on my skin, let alone anyone else's! Having seen the 'in salon' manual rollers at international beauty expos, I remained unconvinced. There was also the negative talk about substandard rollers, with needles snapping off the wheels and of distributors using non-medical grade steel.
My skin therapist friends were excited by the results they were achieving, but I still wasn't convinced it was something I wanted to use on my clients. Only the best for you guys!
Then this happened… a new generation in needling systems was launched. Needling pens that are hygienic, refined enough for use around delicate areas such as under the eyelids, with a vertical needle delivery system. This vertical system penetrates the skin without the risk of tearing or damaging skin tissue, which means less recovery time, less bleeding and less pain.
The Ultraceuticals Direct Needle therapy treatment is clinically tested to improve:
- skin regeneration
- skin texture
- appearance of acne scarring, stretch marks, fine lines and wrinkles.
- skin overall, for a more youthful, glowing appearance.
So what's involved? A numbing cream is applied prior to the treatment, to ensure you have a comfortable experience. Then an intensive serum is applied. This maximises the result as it is 'stamped in' by the ultra-fine, medical grade needles in the pen.
After the treatment it will look like you have moderate sunburn, which usually settles after 24 hours. A follow up regime after your treatment is essential and you will be recommended a skin care programme to use at home to maximise your results. A minimum of four to six treatments is recommended for ultimate skin rejuvenation. New collagen synthesis takes about six weeks, so you can't expect to see results until after the first few weeks. The big bonus from this treatment is that it will continue to keep remodelling your collagen, (meaning plumper skin), for up to two years!
Excellent for most skin types, I'd recommend this treatment for all those looking to revive their skin's appearance and texture.
Call me today, or book online at www.faceitbeauty.co.nz for a no obligation skin consultation, and treatment plan to suit your needs.

|Sarah Palin who addressed the 2008 Republican National Convention, could be waving goodbye to her estimated $1 Million Dollar contact at Fox News (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
A day before cancelling her Wednesday appearance, the Gateway Pundit reported the Ultra-Right Conservatives for Palin site stated during a on-air interview on the network, one of the network's employees called Sarah Palin a "Zealot".
"Palin's contract is up in January, and according to sources, Fox News executives are now weighing what kind of deal they would sign, if they sign one at all," he reported.
Before posting this video, my co-editors and I detected what we heard as someone saying the word "zealot" in the above video at 1:34 while the Governor was speaking. We verified the separate version of the video posted at RightScoop by asking the site owner and they heard it there as well.
Listen to the video up until the 1:34 mark for the reported comment on Sarah Palin's commentary:
With the appearance of fractured relations between Palin and Fox News television network executives could her time at the cable "news" channel be coming to a way over its 15 minutes end? Read the rest of the story at the Huffington Post.

Spurrier, South Carolina deserve better
"This is Death Valley: A place where dreams come to die." — LSU coach Les Miles in the immediate aftermath of Saturday's victory against South Carolina.
This utterance is one of the pure joys of sports — a slightly arrogant rejoinder save for it is the truth. Playing in Baton Rouge really is hell on teams with any real aspirations of a national championship because even in those rare seasons where the Tigers are just kind of good they are dangerous in Louisiana, maybe moreso.
And that is where then-No. 3 (in AP poll) South Carolina went last Saturday.
The Gamecocks lost, just barely, by two points in a hostile environment. For this, they dropped below Florida, Kansas State, Notre Dame, LSU, Ohio State and Oregon State in the polls.
This is absolute bull spit, and exactly what is wrong with college football.
South Carolina is the third best team in the country behind only Alabama and LSU, and anybody who does not recognize this does not actually watch college football.
I guarantee if Alabama coach Nick Saban were being waterboarded and forced to be completely honest, he'd admit that he'd rather play Notre Dame and No. 2 (in BCS Standings) Oregon, giddily play Kansas State and Oregon State and would plan a victory parade in advance if Ohio State was the opponent. This is not an SEC superiority thing, although that is at play. This is all about the eyeball test, which somehow has fallen out of favor as a talent indicator.
It is folly to simply look at who won and who lost in Death Valley and adjust the polls accordingly. Because while LSU deserved to move up and South Carolina down, I am not sure how Notre Dame beating Stanford on a couple of questionable calls undoubtedly makes it better than South Carolina. I do not think it does. The Gamecocks were better in a loss than Oregon, Ohio State and Notre Dame were in victory. Until the 23-21 loss, South Carolina had been undefeated.
Do we really think losing to what is obviously a good LSU team, in an absolutely brutal place, in a game where the Tigers battled and endured and mostly survived proves anything definitive about South Carolina? This is so much like a year ago when Alabama lost an overtime crusher to LSU and ended up beating the Tigers in the national championship game. It is almost comical how quickly we have forgotten what should have been the lesson of a year ago. The lesson is, with the way college football is set up nowadays, the best teams are going to have losses. A loss is an indicator of nothing. It is a fraudulent system that pretends beating Iowa State is more impressive than losing to LSU.
LSU might just be the best team in the country despite the loss to Florida. The Tigers certainly put themselves back in the national championship picture by beating South Carolina, and undoubtedly have Saban's attention.
That Nov. 3 showdown in Baton Rouge is the single biggest game in the college football season. And unlike when 'Bama rolled Michigan in Week 1, the Tide know this will be an absolute throwdown. As good as they are and the Tide are crazy good, they have yet to be really challenged. Of course, the first real swing will come from LSU. It usually does. And this is why losing to LSU is hardly reason to find oneself staring at the ass and elbows of Kansas State or Ohio State for that matter.
This is likely to get the masses in Manhattan and Columbus angry. They are good teams. I think, as evidenced by what we have seen already, Urban Meyer is going to turn the Buckeyes into a yearly beast in the Big Ten. The Buckeyes will be a big-time national player with regularity. This does not make them better than South Carolina right now.
That game Saturday was hanging in the balance until the final minutes. Obviously, the way to figure out the best team is to play. Until college football gets a real deal, eight-team playoff, though, we have only instinct to go on.
Instincts, and eyeballs.
And both indicate the Gamecocks are the third-best team in the country. The fact they are not rated as such is what is wrong with college football.
