Can you have the same Europe with different people in it? The answer, says Christopher Caldwell, is no.
Europe has undergone a demographic revolution it never expected. A half century of mass immigration has failed to produce anything resembling an American-style melting pot. By overestimating its need for immigrant labor and underestimating the culture-shaping potential of religion, Europe has trapped itself in a problem to which it has no obvious solution.
Christopher Caldwell has been reporting on the politics and culture of Islam in Europe for more than a decade. His deeply researched and insightful new book reveals a paradox. Since World War II, mass immigration has been made possible by Europe's enforcement of secularism, tolerance, and equality. But when immigrants arrive, they are not required to adopt those values. And they are disinclined to, since they already have values of their own. Muslims dominate or nearly dominate important European cities, including Amsterdam and Rotterdam, Strasbourg and Marseille, the Paris suburbs and East London. Islam has challenged the European way of life at every turn, becoming, in effect, an "adversary culture."
The result? In Reflections on the Revolution in Europe, Caldwell reveals the anger of natives and newcomers alike. He describes guest worker programs that far outlasted their economic justifications, and asylum policies that have served illegal immigrants better than refugees. He exposes the strange ways in which welfare states interact with Third World customs, the anti-Americanism that brings European natives and Muslim newcomers together, and the arguments over women and sexthat drive them apart. He considers the appeal of sharia, "resistance," and jihad to a second generation that is more alienated from Europe than the first, and addresses a crisis of faith among native Europeans that leaves them with a weak hand as they confront the claims of newcomers.
As increasingly assertive immigrant populations shape the continent, Caldwell writes, the foundations of European culture and civilization are being challenged and replaced. Reflections on the Revolution in Europe is destined to become the classic work on how Muslim immigration permanently reshaped the West.
In recent years, conservative writers have published a number of books and even more articles warning about the demographic decline of Europe and the seemingly dangerous march of Islam on the Continent. These analyses, often delivered with smug Schadenfreude, hold that godless, decadent Europeans have given up having children, leaving a fifth column of faithful, fertile Muslims to swamp their societies. In his bestselling America Alone: The End of the World as We Know It, Mark Steyn predicted "the demise of European races too self-absorbed to breed." The National Review mockingly advertised a "Farewell to Europe Tour," including a visit to the "Islamic Republic of the Netherlands:" "For this special two-day event, females traveling with our party will be allowed to disembark the plane without a veil!"

Well, hello there!
Thursday, August 29, 2013
After posting 190 as my weigh in weight on the 30 day challenge yesterday, I woke to a surprise -- the scale read 187! Guess I'd been experiencing more bloat than I realized. Not sure if that was from the stings, from AF, or all of the above -- but I'll take it! I've been waiting to see this number on the scale for WEEKS. I'm now only a pound away from my pre-pregnancy weight! Miscarriage pounds, I'm beating you!
I have been eating in the middle of my range the past two days (instead of the bottom). Not sure if that is what finally put me over or not, but I'm certainly going to keep it up!
I'm going to get in some exercise today (which I haven't really done since the yellow jacket stings -- except for the PTSD running I've done when I hear something buzzing!). Riding my bike a few miles to a meeting (which also means a few miles back!) Maybe by Saturday's 5% weigh in I'll see 186 . . . (no worries, not getting hopes up TOO high . . . hope the 187 decimal will at least be on the low end by then!)

It is! I'm so excited. I was really wanting to weigh less for this next pregnancy, and was going to settle for just hoping to be where I was before trying. Looks like now I will be able to accomplish both goals (although the second might only be by a pound or two -- but hey, I'll take it). Just gotta keep working!

Congratulations and welcome back to the 180s! I'm glad you are feeling well enough to do a bit of exercise today. What happened to you sounded really rough.
You are too funny! PTSD running hehe I can only imagine. I'm already afraid of bees/wasps and I've never actually been stung!

Public Involvement
RVA has specialized in Public Involvement Programs for nearly 30 years. Public outreach and participation are essential to building consensus and support for successful public policies and projects. In the private sector, public support can positively influence the regulatory process, build goodwill and prevent costly delays by facilitating timely completion of a project.
Good community outreach programs provide opportunities for meaningful participation, encourage dialogue and build trust within the affected community. Successful programs are inclusive, responsive and anticipate community concerns. The result? A strong project that has broad public support.
How does this work? RVA develops a strategic plan that becomes the public involvement program road map for the project. Each component of the program builds on strengths and transforms weaknesses identified in the strategic assessment. We use surveys and/or interviews to develop strategies and program alternatives. We incorporate diverse interests and reach out to members of the disability community, Environmental Justice populations and other traditionally underserved and underrepresented populations. We provide straightforward descriptive materials for clients to use for media and fact sheets.
RVA has developed and managed public involvement programs for more than 100 sensitive projects in the areas of:
- Wastewater planning and treatment
- Drinking water treatment and distribution Transportation
- Facilities planning and siting Deer Island
- Hazardous waste remediation

Kingsbrook Animal Hospital's Top 5 Things To Remember When Traveling With Your Pet
There's no place like home for the holidays! Traveling with your pets can be a very exciting adventure…especially during the winter months. When traveling with pets during this holiday season there are even more things to consider too!
Here are the TOP 5 TRAVEL TIPS for winter-wanderings with your four-legged family:
Anything can happen; especially when having to stop for frequent potty breaks. Having a small first aid kit for your pet that includes things like clean water, a bowl, extra leash, baby wipes to clean off paws, Neosporen-type ointment, gauze squares, paper towels, and tweezers can be helpful in the event of a small accident. Also the addresses and phone numbers for emergency
animal hospitals along your route in the case of a big accident can be very helpful, or at the very least, put your mind at ease.
Making sure you have a current Rabies Certificate and up to date vaccine certificate is very
helpful when crossing state lines; depending on where you are traveling to, an Interstate Health
Certificate or an International Health Certificate may be needed. Certain pet-friendly hotels will
want documents like the Rabies Certificate as well to make sure they are allowing vaccinated
fur-guests into the rooms. Plus in the event that a stop at a vets office is necessary during your
trip, you can present them with Fido's vaccine history.
Having your pet sit on your lap or ride 'shotgun' with you may seem like a good idea, but slippery conditions can be unpredictable due to the weather changing so quickly during this time of year. Having your pet secure in the car is the best option for their safety (and yours)! A kennel, carrier or pet-specific seat belt is a great way to make sure that they don't go flying in the event of a car accident or sudden stop.
Providing toys, chews or treats is a great way to make sure your furry family member is occupied during long trips. Making things like a Kong Pupsicle is a great way to keep Rover busy for a while! (soak their kibble in water, smush it into a Kong toy then freeze- VOILA!). You may want to avoid things like stuffed animals that can be destroyed and ingested since you'll be driving and unable to keep a continuous eye on them.
Having your pets everyday items are a must for traveling with them. Food and
water bowls, daily medications, food, collar/harness, leash and ID tags are an
absolute must. Having extra bowls, leashes and collars are a really good idea to
have 'just-in-case'. Absorbent towels and plastic bags are a staple item during the
winter time- nothings worse than a wet dog and 8 more hours to drive!
Kingsbrook Animal Hospital's Festive Feline Faux-Pas
Welcome back for the Kingsbrook Animal Hospital's holiday hazards: cats edition (last week we considered holiday hazards for dogs). There are cross-over hazards to beware of for both dogs and cats that were discussed last week, such as:
watching to make sure pets are not eating people foods that can make them sick, like raw bread dough, chocolate, xylitol, and alcohol
- being diligent about not giving in to overindulgence to prevent GI upset
- keeping festive plants in places pets do not have access to, or considering fake plants, as many holiday plants are toxic
- keeping medications out of reach
- monitoring your pet's access to the Christmas tree or if unable to do that or placing ornaments higher on the tree so they are not at a good "batting or chewing" height
- and unplugging your electrical cords when pets are not being supervised.
Here are some other holiday hazards that are more cat specific:
Tinsel, ribbon, and strings– Few cats are able to pass by this stuff without stopping to bat, chew or ingest it! In fact, strings are one of the top foreign bodies seen in cats year-round.
Liquid potpourri or candles– These candles and warmers can help our homes smell wonderful during the holiday season and throughout the year, but do pose a burn risk for cats. If you have a counter-surfing cat then please unplug or blow out while the cat is not under your direct supervision.
Finally, some cats find it thrilling to attempt to climb the Christmas tree. Create an unpleasant barrier (tin foil, double-sided sticky tape) around the base of the tree to help deter them from climbing. It is always a good idea to securely anchor your tree as well- just to be safe.
Allowing a "safe zone" for your feline friend to retreat to as needed where it is quieter and away from the festivities can provide them with a much appreciated break.
While you cannot always prevent emergencies from happening, we hope this list helps keep your pets safe and happy during the holidays. It can be very helpful to have your veterinarian's phone number, as well as a local emergency hospital's number, pre-programmed into your phone to be prepared in case of emergency. The veterinarians and veterinary staff here at Kingsbrook Animal Hospital in Frederick, MD wish you and your fur babies a happy holiday season!
I took one cat to the vet, and now my house is a war zone!
My friend texted me the other day and wanted to know how long "displaced aggression" would last in cats. Not really knowing the context of what was going on I thought she could have a more difficult behavioral issue going on. She has a two cat household and one cat was being very aggressive and "freaking out" whenever the other one came around. After further questioning the situation was this…..
She took cat A by itself to the vet while cat B stayed home. Upon returning home cat B would act out aggressively toward cat A anytime it approached. This continued through the night and although she separated them, in the morning when she opened the house to them again the fighting resumed. I assured her that this was not an isolated incident that was happening to her because her cats were freaky and abnormal! 🙂
This can and has happened to several of our clients (and even one of our former technicians) whenever only one of the household cats traveled to the vet
for a visit without the other. They come home smelling like the vet and for the next few days they are completely ostracized and bullied. This can be very stressful for everyone living in the house- pets and people.
While I couldn't give my friend an exact deadline for how long it might last (because every cat and household may vary) I COULD offer her some helpful tips
on how to resume the peace.
First, I let my friend know that it's common that Cat B would only act aggressively toward the cat and not her- even though she smelled like the vet's office also.
We cat people know, there doesn't have to be a good reason- cat's do what they want, when they want to- and that's that! 🙂
Option one for all of you that are not in her situation and are reading this before you take only one of your cat's to the vet- if it's a feasible option- take them BOTH! One can just ride along, sit and watch, and they both go home smelling the same- case closed.
If you have many cats or it's stressful for the cat to just ride along when he's not being seen, don't worry, there are other tactics to use to help if this occurs in your household.
Don't just reintroduce the cats back together immediately- separate them in different rooms for about an hour. This gives the cat who went to vet time to relax and calm down and also time to reclaim it's "house" scent.
Use a dry washcloth to wipe all over the cat who has stayed home, then use it to rub the "offensive" cat to transfer the household smell to it. You can up the ante a little and use a wet washcloth in the same manner if the dry technique doesn't help.
Bathing is an option- but that is usually NOT fun for the cats or their owners!
Another option is felaway spray- this is a calming hormone spray that you spray into the environment.
Regardless, it may take a couple days for any of these approaches to fully quiet the madness. But typically- after a short period of time normalcy does come back and
your cats will once again live amicably together!

Downtown pioneer and sculptor, Carol Cole, creates "green" work for CNY shows:
As an unemployed TV producer who "did pottery on the side" in the early 70s, Carol Cole didn't foresee being a pioneering founder of the arts and crafts cooperative that endures today, in modified form, as Armory Square's Eureka Crafts and its two-year-old toddler offspring, Eureka East, outside Manlius. Then she visited a new venture called Village Square in the basement of the old E.W. Edwards department store on Salina Street, crafters got paid to make their wares in public, talk to visitors and, if they sold anything, they could keep the money.
Cole said she wasn't a very good potter, but she "had a big old kick wheel, I sat under a spotlight and talked to kids. I had to be there 50 hours a week. You know, you get pretty good, so I decided I wanted to be a full-time artist."
The Village Square experiment eventually broke up, but Cole joined a smaller cadre — woodworker Bill McDowell, toymaker Tom Cunningham, art teacher/potter Tina Parker and others — who set up shop in the building that now houses Empire Brewing, moving to Eureka's present location on Walton Street in 1983. Eureka Crafts, now owned by Parker and Cunningham, was established in 1986, 10 years after Eureka Studios.
Parker said Eureka hosted a show of Cole's work a dozen years ago. Now there's a window display at Eureka downtown and 11 large pieces in the Manlius gallery, sculptures from Cole's recent solo show "Transformations" at Colgate University's Longyear Museum. Parker drove to Hamilton for the opening and invited Cole back to her old stomping grounds.
Where has Cole been?
Cole left Syracuse when her husband finished his SU PhD and got a university teaching job in Philadelphia. She quickly found another artist-friendly situation in an old brick building rehabbed into studios. There she moved on from clay to paper pulp, used like clay, built upon a Styrofoam armature, embedded with found objects, painted to resemble old wood, leather, rusty iron or bronze patina. Her work is paradoxical. Looking heavy and old, inspired by ancient Moroccan doors, Etruscan and New Guinea-style shields, Mayan and African totems, it's new, amazingly light and "elegant but made from trash." Hair brushes, a round floor-polisher brush, red tufts, bottle caps, beads, shell casings tinted turquoise, strips of studded leather belts, brass eggs, a piece of vertebrae, sea urchin spines and computer parts — these are Cole's re-cycled "art supplies."
Cole now exhibits across the US, takes large private commissions, and teaches artists' motivational workshops and school residencies. She spoke by phone last week from Philadelphia. Here are some highlights of the 15-minute interview that stretched nearly an hour.
Your favorite color is rust, but there's often a touch of red?
That's new. I look at African sculpture a lot. I started looking again and seeing a lot of red. It's almost a trick. It's such a powerful color emotionally and visually. The next thing is to add some pure blue. I like the turquoise. I grew up in Tucson. As a child in the early 50s we were exposed to a lot of Native American art. The two colors I really liked were turquoise and burnt sienna — the same colors as rust and copper or brass patina.
You use paper three-dimensionally — what's this "cast paper sculpture"?
You can use paper pulp like clay. It's like the old egg cartons — you put it in a mold, pop it off when it dries and it's sturdy. But I don't like to repeat — everything is one-of-a-kind. Someone I know did beautiful paper pulp sculpture and she said you don't take the Styrofoam out — you leave it. It was like a light bulb! I've been doing it ever since. I make the shape, carve the Styrofoam, cover that with paper pulp. The pulp is about 1/2 – 3/4 inches thick when applied.
How did the Village Square mall happen?
Edwards went out of business and a retail specialist came in who said, turn the basement into a small business mall. Hippie craftspeople was the attraction. Bill McDowell had the Dragon's Emporium near Westcott. He knew everyone and was hired to manage – 25 or 30 people started out there. Kate Woodle, who does illustration for the zoo, was doing batik. Joe Panzarella made brooms — he runs Imagine Gallery in Skaneateles. Linda Sherman's an art teacher — she made pottery with horses on it. Jim Rausch made jewelry. Judy McNally was a weaver. Harry Freeman-Jones made banners. Somebody made Western shirts to order. Shortly afterward they stopped paying us, but it created a situation. People brought in their animals and kids. We covered the booths with barn wood. We were encouraged to look "hippie." For a while they hired a blue-grass band. As it succeeded, some people left.
Your work and your audience changed significantly in Philadelphia?
Things I wanted to do with clay got too hard. In order to use found objects I had to go too large. Paper let me grow, maybe because I was hanging around more fine artists too. If you make what's authentic, people will like it. Too often we don't value what comes easily — if everyone would relax and do what they physically enjoy, we'd all contribute. I make things intuitively. You learn tools, techniques and problem solving from others, but then your direction's your own.
You have a real affinity for archetypal forms.
A professor at Colgate talks about globalization — that people used to just be exposed to art in their own village, then they'd travel and see something slightly different. Only recently with photo, now the Internet, an artist can see everything. Now the whole world is part of an artist's world. I've always been drawn to tribal works and architecture. I have a faith — the right person sees it and wants it — they'll want a particular piece. You won't make a regular living but there's the deep enjoyment of the making, and it's pretty amazing when people tell you they love your work! I borrowed a piece for the Colgate show that was sold — when I brought it back they were so happy, they'd missed it.
Carol Cole's "Transformations" at both Eureka locations to March 31st. Armory Square's Eureka Crafts, 210 Walton St., open seven days, 471.4601 & Eureka Crafts East, 8188 Cazenovia Rd. (cor. Rt. 92 & Pompey Center Rd.), Monday-Saturday, 682.1938. See eurekacrafts.com and carolcole.com.

FacebookFacebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced Monday that it will be partnering with satellite company Eutelsat to beam internet around the world.
Zuckerberg wrote on his Facebook page, "over the last year Facebook has been exploring ways to use aircraft and satellites to beam internet access down into communities from the sky" in an effort to give people in more remote regions internet connection.
Facebook was originally interested in purchasing Titan Aerospace, the maker of solar powered drones, to beam the internet to people living in remote regions. But after offering $60 million for the company, Google swiped Titan Aerospace away for an undisclosed amount (it'll now operate under Alphabet).
But now Facebook is back in the internet-beaming business. Eutelsat, the company Facebook is partnering with for the project, is providing Facebook with access to their satellite Amos-6. The Amos-6 satellite will provide internet coverage to large parts of sub-Saharan Africa.
"The Amos-6 satellite is under construction now and will launch in 2016 into a geostationary orbit that will cover large parts of West, East and Southern Africa," Zuckerberg writes on his Facebook page. "We're going to work with local partners across these regions to help communities begin accessing internet services provided through satellite."
Here's a closer look at how Facebook's newest partner operates.

Sandra Bullock was reunited with her ex-husband's daughter on Christmas Day (25.12.10).
The 'Blind Side' actress – who split with motorcyclist Jesse James last year after a string allegations he had cheated on her – had seven-year-old Sunny visit her and her adopted son, 11-month-old Louis Bardo at their home in Austin, Texas, after the little girl spent the morning with her dad and his latest love, reality TV star Kat Von D.
A source told website RadarOnline.com: "Sunny had a star-studded Christmas because she was with Kat Von D in the morning and then she saw Sandra in the afternoon.
"Even although Sandra and her father are no longer together they have remained in touch – she had fun seeing Louis and playing with him although she was not allowed to feed him.
"Despite everything that has happened between Sandra and Jesse, Sandra has remained in touch with Sunny and his other two kids Jesse Jr. and Chandler too."
It had previously been revealed that 46-year-old Sandra was keen for Louis to spend time with Jesse's children over the festive season.
A source said recently: "Sandra wants to make sure Louis grows up knowing Jesse's children, so she is willing to put the past behind her for the sake of the kids.
"Sandra knows that having Jesse's family in Louis' life is good for him. So she's opening her home and her heart to the children, inviting them to visit at Christmastime."
Jesse currently has full custody of Sunny, while her mother Janine Lindemulder has weekly visitation rights.

"More effective use of aid could produce extra resources; a greater focus on the poorest countries and better collaboration amongst donors, including the pooling of budgets, could also maximise the efficiency of aid in diminishing poverty. Overall better allocation, co-ordination and untying, by bilateral donors and by international institutions, could make aid 50 percent more effective".[117]
The stakes are high: aid can, and must, be made more effective. This will require concerted action from both the donor and the recipient ends of the aid relationship to improve the allocation, design and delivery of aid.
The Good Recipient: Committed to Poverty Reduction and Good Governance
"Good governance is essential for sustainable development. Sound economic policies, solid democratic institutions responsive to the needs of the people and improved infrastructure are the basis for sustained economic growth, poverty eradication and employment creation. Freedom, peace and security, domestic stability, respect for human rights, including the right to development, and the rule of law, gender equality, market-oriented policies, and an overall commitment to just and democratic societies are also essential and mutually reinforcing".[118]
We share these views, and believe strongly that developing countriestheir governments, but also civil society, business and the mediahave the primary responsibility for ensuring that aid is used effectively. The ineffective use of aid or the diversion of aid into the pockets of elites pushes the poor deeper into poverty and robs them of the assistance provided to them.
"investment in human development is actually effective, it does deliver. Investment in public health, investment in education, are extremely effective ways of spending money but we spend a tiny, tiny amount of the aid budget on that. We [the DAC donors on average] spend 2 percent of aid on basic health and 1.5 percent of aid on basic education globally. We have not really invested that much in the things that work in the context we think they are likely to work".[121]
The Good Donor: Providing Sufficient, Timely and Quality Aid
Aid as Investment: Targeting, Conditions and Low-Return Countries
Diagram Source: Committee's own.
"Uganda is a perfect example, but to a lesser extent also Tanzania, Mozambique. Uganda particularly in the late eighties was not developing in the free market [mould],[143] it had pegged exchange rates, it had all kinds of discouragements. Uncharacteristically, the donors did not come in with a battle axe. They very gently suggested possibilities for moving to a free market. To begin with nothing happened. By about 1992/93, by a process of gentle persuasion, it had reached the point where, when advice was needed, where Uganda had sometimes turned internally to the ministry of finance, the ministry of finance would then turn to the aid donors. The aid donors fed in a message about the need for a poverty related pattern of public expenditure that led the Ugandan Government to decide what, in the light of its priorities, would be the right way to do that. They came up with their own list and in this way a pattern of public expenditure was arrived at which has now borne fruit and the rate of poverty in Uganda has gone down from over 50 percent to under 30 percent. The important thing was that the donors were willing to play it long, they did not push Uganda too hard, they condoned things like an export tax on coffee in 1994. They showed that they were willing to trust the Ugandans and in the end they were rewarded."[144]
"we are trying to move it from 'We're the donors, we'll tell you what to do; jump over all these hurdles or you can't get your money', to 'This is a partnership, we have agreed on this Poverty Reduction Strategy together; let's check that it's on track'. And, often, with goodwill, countries go off the track a bit, they might have a drought, commodity prices might fall, and then it is a question of helping them to get it right, not always just saying 'You're off track, we'll cut off the money.' So we are trying to change the culture of how we interpret those conditionalities, and that work is going on and is a constant endeavour".[145]

Do you know Fiji, that brand of fancy, pricey bottled water that you sometimes see in convenience stores? I've drunk a bottle or two in my day, but I never really spent much time thinking about Fiji Water. When I did, I guess I associated the brand with a tropical paradise and beaches with clear blue water. Fiji's popularity among celebrities has made it the US's #1 imported bottled water, and apparently the brand has to some extent insulated itself from the green backlash against bottled water by tauting itself as an eco-friendly business. But last week I read a damning expose in Mother Jones which has forever changed my opinion of the brand.
Is Fiji Water Green?
No. According to the article, Fiji Water imports the plastic for its bottles from China, and its bottling plant runs on diesel generators. A lot of the green initiatives that the company credits itself with have yet to be implemented. The article also points out that -- you know -- having your water shipped to you from halfway across the world is not such a green choice.
Is Fiji Water Socially Conscious?
Fiji Water also likes to publicize its charitable donations, especially its contributions to bettering the lives of Fijians. Mother Jones points out that the company does not release the exact figures of how much it gives to charity, but forget about that... I was more struck by the fact that, whereas Fiji Water comes from a pristine aquifer that was discovered in the early '90s, many Fijians do not have access to clean drinking water and as a result outbreaks of diseases like typhoid are common. The company purchased a 99-year lease to the land over the aquifer and almost no one else has tapped into this source.
And did you know that Fiji is ruled by a military dictatorship that has suspended freedom of the press and committed human rights violations? Fiji Water has a very close relationship with the island chain's government: the foreign-owned company represents 3% of the nation's GDP, and it enjoys favorable tax treatment. In return, the company of course keeps its mouth shut about any government oppression. The article notes that when Fiji's government attempted to levy an additional tax on the bottling company, Fiji Water condemned the measure as "draconian" and temporarily closed down its plant in protest, but they haven't reacted similarly to measures infringing on the human rights of the people of Fiji.
Fiji's government actually loves Fiji Water and it loves being associated with the company given that some of the world famous brand's goodwill and coolness rubs off on the island nation. When Anne Lenzer, the journalist who wrote the article for Mother Jones, travelled to Fiji to investigate the company, she was arrested and questioned by police. In addition to complaining about her seditious activity (reporting abroad on the junta's crackdown via email), the police also accused her of being sent by a rival water company (Kentwood? Poland Springs?) to tarnish Fiji Water's image.
When I think of Fiji Water the first person who comes to mind is my friend Nicole. She has been drinking Fiji for like ten years (trendsetter!). We used to joke about how she was broke and her car was busted, but she'd have on designer sunglasses and be sipping $4 bottles of water. When I forwarded her the link to this article her reaction was "OMG, I had no idea! I am never buying Fiji Water again!" Neither will I.

text: It is almost time to repower one of my Gravely 260Z machines. I have found a Honda 2Cyl vertical for about $1100 vs $1500 for a new Kohler CV25. The Kohler runs well but is really hurting for HP lately. It doesn't burn oil, just is low on power. I've always been impressed with Honda engines. The 24HP vertical has an oil filer, too. Has anyone used this engine? Would it be a suitable replacement or a pain to install? Longevity? Has anyone done this conversion? I understand the shaft diameter is 1 1/8" on both Kohler and Honda.

Hundreds of 'neo-Nazis' pulling Hitler salutes storm Bolton
PROTESTERS wearing swastikas and performing Hitler salutes stormed the streets of Bolton, in Greater Manchester, in protest over a planned mosque.
At least 100 people rallied in the town centre against the mosque and Islamic centre set to be built in the Bolton suburb of Great Lever.
Footage from scene showed the group – some trying to cover their faces – raising their hand in salute as they held sign stating "no more mosques".
But they were met with a counter-protest led by Unite Against Fascism, who could be heard chanting "Nazi scum, off our streets".
"To protest against worship facilities for another section is very un-British"Nick Peel, a member of Bolton Council
Police said they had no power to stop the legal protest.
The "stop the mosque" protesters also accused Bolton council of being corrupt.
One of the protest's organisers said his group was opposed to what claim is the "Islamification" of their town.
Both sides were separated by fenced off areas in Victoria Square outside the town hall - but insults were hurdled over the barriers.
A local council member branded the protest "un-British".
Nick Peel, an executive member for Bolton Council Environment said: "Obviously everybody has a right to protest.
"However I understand the nature of it was described as 'anti-mosque.
"One of our most enshrined values is freedom of worship to for one section of the community to protest against worship facilities for another section is very un-British."
Greater Manchester Police said no arrests were made.

So, I'll admit that eggplant isn't one of my favorite foods. Even when I had Eggplant Parmesan in the past, I hadn't enjoyed it because I found it mushy and unpleasant tasting…
However, my wife is a big fan and I began playing around with strategies for making it in a manner we would both enjoy it and I think I've settled on the following.
First, I slice the eggplant into slices that are about 1/4″ thick and then toss them in a bowl with a handful of salt for at least an hour. Eggplant is a moisture-filled vegetable, so the salt is critical in drawing out much of the excess moisture.
Then I do a three-dip fry with the slices (dredge in flour seasoned with garlic powder, dipped in beaten eggs, and then coated in plain breadcrumbs seasoned with oregano and basil) until you get a nice golden-brown color.
I typically use canola oil for the frying, and find a cast-iron pot to be a great frying vessel. You'll also notice that I have a baking rack out to let the excess oil drip off the fried eggplant, which helps give them a crispier coat.
As the eggplant finishes frying and resting, I begin assembling my casserole. I typically put a light layer of marinara on the bottom (we made our own this year, but any bottle will do if you want) and then put down a single layer of eggplant. This then gets topped by a layer to cheese, more eggplant, and then some sauce. I like to alternate fresh mozzarella and provolone between layers, but feel free to mix it up.
Below is a shot of the construction in-progress.
And once all the layers are built, I add one last layer of sauce and cheese and toss it in the oven for 30-45 minutes. Below is the finished product, using approximately 4 large eggplants.
Once you cut into it, you get some clear and beautiful layers, as seen here (sorry, I had already dug in…).
And, even though I'm not an eggplant fan, I not only find it tolerable, but excellent tasting.
I still don't make it too frequently (it does take several hours and a lot of dishes to make, and my kids still aren't big fans…), and while it's vegetarian, I won't claim it's healthy. However, it is the one way I have found to enjoy eggplant.

One that got away
I recently pitched a comic called MCPD Blue (that's Monster City Police Department). Sadly the editor liked it, but didn't feel it was right. After a brief moment of panic where I thought all ideas had dried up and I'd never do anything, or find time for anything again, I came up with an idea that takes a lot of what I liked about MCPD Blue but hopefully presses the right buttons for the editor.
In the meantime, here's a couple of the MCPD Blue illustrations. Who knows, maybe I'll come back to it sometime.

Top 10 Drug Addicted Countries in the World with Most Drug Use
Poppy in Afghanistan and marijuana plants are developed in vast fields in numerous nations in spite of the restriction on their development. So this medication mishandle is expanding step by step, and genuine endeavors are required by the worldwide group to control this medication danger generally the adolescent's future in numerous nations is by all accounts in question. Taking after is the rundown of main ten most medication dependent nations:
Mexico is celebrated and known for its meth fixation all through the world. Mexico is additionally acclaimed for meth's as well as other enslavement sedate sending out. Meth remains for methamphetamine, and it is exceptionally poisonous and moderate enslavement harm. The utilization of this medication was expanded in 2010 and 2011 in Mexico and USA. Mexico is considered as the hearth of meth generation, and its customer numbering is expanding step by step particularly the number achieved the top echelons in 2012.According to a study led 360,000 of the Mexican populace has utilized meth for once in any event in their lifetime.
Brazil is for the most part dependent on a medication called as oxi. Oxi is still a scandalous medication very little famous and much of the time utilized around like cocaine and so on. Oxi comprises of cocaine glue, gas, and oxides that are to a great degree addictive. The reason for medication being widely utilized as a part of this area of Brazil is its modesty and more force of habit than cocaine. Thus, Brazil in not so distant future is by all accounts moving to an exceptionally endangered time of medication fixation because of Oxi's gifts, and solid control is should be taken for its counteractive action.
Americans if not appropriate medications are purchasers of them in a roundabout way as medicine pills which 7 out of 10 Americans are assessed to consume. The pills are utilized generally utilized for medicated purposes and conclusion of diabetes, tuberculosis and others rest bringing about medications and antidepressants and against asthmatic. In any case, the rate of the American populace on medicine pills is expanding step by step and has expanded up to 44 to 48% as of late.
Canada is for the most part dependent on a medication called as Cannabis likewise called pot. Around 44.3% of the Canadians have utilized this pot medicate once as a part of the lifetime. As per the late insights, the Canada's aggregate cannabis utilization has gone down through the last numerous years particularly from 2004 high has declined up to utilization falling up to 39.4% up-to 2011.The medication habit start begins for the most part at early teenagers and goes up. Canada's medication arrangement coalition is making viable measures to decrease tranquilize utilize yet at the same time the 22,3000 normal pot clients in the nation are available which is disturbing for the nation.
Afghanistan remains at number six with one of the notorious medication named heroine. The nation is additionally the opium poppy plant cultivator on the planet. Around 350,000 Afghans are dependent on this medication as indicated by an overview, and this proportion has been expanding since then. Another disheartening occasion that has been seen in Afghanistan is that around 75% of the heroin utilizing guardians additionally offer medications to their youngsters who have debilitated the better fate of the nation as well. According to specific clinicians, the Afghan such a dependence on the medication is the aftereffect of the simple access to locally developed medication and its being shabby furthermore because of the injury that nation has confronted because of war.

"Riding Wide, Pursuit"
Riders of pursuits have been observed deliberately riding wide in the straights. Does this have any advantage?
Some velodromes, while they appear to be level all the way around, have turns that are at higher elevations than the centers of the straights. This means that riders have to ride downhill and back up between turns. Riding wide on these velodromes would have the effect of avoiding the "valleys" at the expense of riding further. However, we also see riders doing the same thing in velodromes that are at the same elevation all the way around.
In this analysis we setup two velodromes, one with a measurement line that is level all the way around and one with some slope in the straights. Then we test different paths. The rider has the same characteristics and same power in all cases.
The Model. The model on which this analysis is based starts by defining a velodrome surface. This can model any velodrome of any complexity. It continues by defining a path to be ridden. The path can be any path a rider can ride on the surface. It continues by writing and solving the differential equations of motion for the rider while the rider rides the path. The differential equations take into account the rider's lean in the turns (a function of speed of the rider's center of mass and the radius of the turn). Lean in the turns causes rides to actually ride less distance. The solution gives distance, speed, and acceleration of the rider's center of mass as a function of time while the rider's wheel traces the path on the velodrome surface.
A rendering of the Adelaide velodrome, a 250m track with a level measurement line. This was used as the model for the level velodrome.
A rendering of 250m velodrome with a slope in the straights of 0.6%. This was used as the model for a velodrome with slope.

This system lets several people manage the same campaign on Yandex.Direct by providing access to the same account from different (representative) logins.
All registered representatives have full access to all campaigns, they can edit and change ad settings, view campaign statistics, transfer funds, and pay for campaigns, etc.
There will always be a senior representative. The senior representative is the only one who can appoint new representatives, and delete existing representatives. There are no restrictions to the total number of representatives you can have.
Appointing a new representative
A new representative can register with the approval of the "head" representative. To do this, click on the Registered representatives link on the My campaigns page and use the Appoint a new representative option.
Representatives can only be assigned new Yandex usernames that have not been used to manage ad campaigns on any other Yandex services in the past. A new representative will receive access to ad campaign management services not only in Direct, but also on other Yandex commercial services.
The new representative will then appear on the Registered representatives page.
Deleting representatives
Representatives can be deleted in the "Registered representatives" page using the link next to the login of the relevant representative. When deleted that particular login will lose all access to the campaigns of that user.
Deleted representatives will lose their access to ad campaign management services not only in Yandex.Direct, but also on other Yandex commercial services.
Previously-deleted representatives can be viewed in the list on the Deleted representatives tab. A former representative can be reinstated if necessary.
Changing the chief representative
Any of the existing representatives can be nominated to be a chief representative. Follow the Change chief representative link, select the required login from the list of representatives, then click Appoint.
After a new chief representative has been appointed, the previous chief representative will lose all administrative rights.
A standard campaign representative will only receive notifications about the campaigns where their email address is specified as a contact. If a representative wants to get notifications for all campaigns, they can change the notification settings under User settings.
The chief representative will always receive notifications about all the campaigns. Additionally, the chief representative can edit the settings for all other representatives by clicking Edit to the right of the login field in the general list of representatives.

At the closing dinner for the executive education program we teach at the Kennedy School for federal GS-15s (and military counterparts), I sat next to Steve Varnum, a 31-year-old GS-15 from the General Services Administration Public Buildings Service. Varnum had promoted to the grade last year at age 30. He reflects in a dramatic way the generational transformation beginning to occur in the government, and I was eager to get his reflections on how he had been able to rise so fast.
After majoring in information technology management in college and graduating in 2002, Varnum took his first job with a government contractor that did work for GSA. However, after only two years with the contractor, he switched over to GSA, because he felt that GSA provided a clearer path for professional development and growth than the contracting industry. He also recognized the significance of public service, and felt his skills and abilities could be applied effectively to make the agency more efficient.
As I listened to him tell his story, there were two things that seemed important in terms of his fast rise within the organization. One involved his own personal career management, the other his supervisors and managers.
In terms of his own personal career management, Varnum had clearly thought explicitly and strategically about getting opportunities to interact with people in the agency outside his own part of the organization, to develop contacts and opportunities in cross-stovepipe contexts. He clearly thought that this would signal his broader, agency-wide perspective and distinguish him from colleagues who just had their noses to the grindstone of their own narrow work.
When he spoke of his supervisors and managers, he was enthusiastic. He said his immediate supervisor never felt threatened by a young, aggressive subordinate coming up with new ideas and suggestions. On the contrary, his supervisor was eager to work with the young employee, realizing that benefits from implementing his ideas would be a credit to the supervisor as well as the employee.
For example, Varnum recognized that one of the organization's key performance measures was masking issues within the program. The measure had two major components, but they appeared in reports as an aggregate. Varnum realized that combining two calculations into one metric was allowing the high- performing piece to hide the negatives of the low-performing piece.
Varnum suggested breaking apart the measure into two separate items so that the weaknesses of the low-performing aspect would be exposed and could be improved. Instead of feeling threatened by Varnum's suggestion, his supervisors welcomed and embraced it.
Second, his supervisors over the years had been quick to give him opportunities to do things that were too hard or that put him in over his head. Just recently, his several-levels above boss asked him to take charge of a briefing to the GSA administrator. Varnum told me he was terrified, afraid he would make a lot of mistakes and embarrass himself. But everything worked out ok, and it turned out to be a real learning experience.
There are too many people around federal workplaces who feel threatened by the young people coming on board -- and probably some young people who act like the know-it-all's they are often accused of being. I'm wondering whether any young, or senior, feds have experiences or lessons learned about how to create a more-productive interaction at the workplace between new and older employees?

Census made several key slipups in its decision to award a $283 million mobile device contract for the 2020 population count, according to the Government Accountability Office.
I worked as a contractor for about 6 years after leaving the military in 2007. I gained all the experience I current possess by learning from other federal programs and being placed in the line of fire. I applied for and was accepted to be a GS-14 at 33 years old. This is an exciting change due to being able to make decisions, rather than just providing advice and recommendations. The SES employees welcome me, but other older GS 13s and below are not happy with my presence. The program has had a huge turn around and has many acting 15 positions. These positions will be advertised within the next 12 to 18 months. I definitely will apply for a few of the 15s, which will place me at GS-15 at 34 or 35 years old. I guess this isn't incredibly young, but much younger than I typically see in the Federal Government. I think what I bring to the table is an unwillingness to give up and a deep desire to "get it right", instead of adapting the "it's good enough for government work" mentality. It's my goal to make the program work as efficiently as possible, while teaching others what I know, in order to progress their careers and strengthen the organization.
I am a 29 year old GS14 and about to put in for my supervisors GS15 when he leaves in a month. I am the individual in my office of 65 people who is typically assigned the most difficult crises to manage and I have excelled. I have not put in the time in grade that others have, and once in a while I see that people are threatened by my age. Obviously, I have expereinced less crises than my older counterparts, although I have proven to my management that I am better able to manage and resolve the crises than others. I hope that my management and others in governement continue to be open minded and embrase the rise of the energetic, driven younger generation.
I think the comments that the previous comments are valid in an organization that can honestly groom personnel to be managers and supervisors. What I see where I am in government, is a lot of whites at the top and peopel of color at the bottom no matter how smart or skillful thery are. An internal study was done and this instutional racism was noted as a problem. Yet 13 years later, it still exists. There is a general fear of whites of a person of color managing a government enterprise. This is why they are appointed. Younger employees that I have seen are usually Persidential Management Fellows that do not have a complete understanding of operations but they will usually get promoted to GS-15 and not have any sense of the people who over the years have sacrificed and given generously to the organization their time and expertise so that the business of customer service can go forward. It seems that most of these PMF's are too busy trying to get to GS-15 and hurting the overall function of the office as they go. In the military, there is a natural progression to management and if you are not fit you are "weeded out". The PMF and other programs are good when the people involved are balanced personally and understand they are "public servants". Then add to the equation that almost none of them have ever served in a service capacity. This is whay I will leave government service to do my own company. I see that the powers that be have instituted the broken "Corporate America" model to public service and have instituted a master and slave realtionship with their employees.
I think the GS levels really depend on the agency as well. My agency, like most, had a program for entry-level 1102s that involved training milestones and rotations. They would start at GS-7 and after a year be bumped to a 9 and then onto a grade 11. From there, a one-grade increase to 12 and onto 13. I am finding that most of the younger 1102s are coming in with graduate degrees and they are older than before. A lot of our entry-level 1102s are 25, 26 and even 27 years old. Most have a bit of experience in other fields and aren't considered "green" compared with some 22-year old fresh out of a 4-year program.
Last year, my agency gave out a ton of 14s to a number of people who weren't really in the position to be earning a 14. A good number of these folks were under 30 and without graduate degrees, but with 4/5 years of 1102 experience under their belts. I can't say that any of these folks are exceptional or that they stand out in in manner. What gets me is that most of these newly-minted 14s aren't managing people or groups. I was under the impression that a GS-14 1102 position involved some form of supervisor duties.
Keep in mind that one reason the youngsters are advancing so quickly is that they start at higher grade levels than they used to. In the 1970s, most contracting trainees started as GS-5, with a very few starting at GS-7. Thus, with a minimum of one year in grade it took them 10 to 11 years to make GS-15. Today they are starting as GS-9s, 11s, and even 12s. Whether advancement to GS-14 or 15 in five years or less and at the age of 30 is a good thing in the long run remains to be seen. It may be good for the individual, but not necessarily for the organization. There is less "seasoning," and some people think that grade reflects knowledge and competence, which is also not necessarily the case.

Garland, TX (PressExposure) May 31, 2011 -- Leading manufacturer of automotive aftermarket specialty chemicals rolls out social media initiative.
IDQ Inc. the world's leading manufacturer of Automotive Aftermarket A/C products such as Arctic Freeze, Sub-Zero Synthetic, and Super Seal is using social media to improve customer communications, build awareness, and simplify customer support. By coordinating a company blog with Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and other social media outlets, IDQ is engaging customers in conversations. Additionally, consumers can "Ask the Pro" for technical support and advice which will increase user satisfaction and improve results.
"Implementing social media as a way of improving the customer experience is a natural for IDQ," says James Winton VP of Customer Support. "Although our product is very easy to use, customers are sometimes reluctant about doing a car repair that they have never done before. By using outlets such as YouTube and Facebook, we can effectively reach our core customers to demonstrate how easy it is to use our products, and to illustrate how they can save time and money." Winton goes on to explain that tools such as Facebook and Twitter can improve customer technical support by reducing response time for customer support issues: "Many people might not pick up the phone and call a customer tech line if there is a problem, but they won't think twice about tweeting it or creating a post on Facebook. By engaging the customer in the areas where they are having the conversation, we can spot customer issues quickly, and get them resolved in a timely fashion."
IDQ believes that social media is not just a passing fad but an integral part of communicating with customers in the digital age. To support this initiative IDQ recently created the position of Digital Content Manager to stay abreast of all of the activities in the various media, and to provide fresh content on an ongoing basis.
Follow the company on Twitter @acprocold or log on to Facebook and follow the company at http://www.facebook.com/acprocold/. To view the company "how to" videos users can subscribe to the AC Pro Channel at http://www.youtube.com/user/acproidq/.

Four questions:

What are the therapeutic end-points? There is no evidence that albumin reduces mortality compared with saline. The "Three-to-One" Rule for Resuscitation: 3 mls of crystalloid for every 1 mls of blood loss replaced Indications:

The Indian cement sector was among one of the country's most robust performing sectors in the recent quarter registering over 65% bottom line growth and 25.6% growth on the sales front over the same quarter of previous year. The realizations of the cement companies have increased in the range of 12-15% year on year and 1-6% quarter on quarter.
Most of the cement companies have been operating over 90% of their installed capacity in order to bridge the gap between demand and supply, the demand has been at around 10% for quite some time. Will this sector continue to perform robustly and sustain its profitablity is something to to watch out for because of oversupply concerns by FY09?
According to a study of 20 major cement manufacturer's in India we have found that their profitability has improved by over 84% in the first quarter of current fiscal where as their sales growth was around 28% over the same quarter of previous year.
According to a CLSA report on Q1 FY08 review, ACC's and Grasim's volumes have grown by 15.3% and 11.4% YoY respectively while Ambuja and Ultratech have faced capacity constraints leading to flat volumes. ACC results were below expectations on account of higher SAP implementation related expenses. Ambuja Cements results were also lower than estimates at an operating level on account of higher freight and other costs. CLSA is over weight on Grasim, Ultratech, India cements and recommends them as their top picks.
Broking firm, SSKI has reiterated their underweight stance on this sector due to oversupply concerns by FY09 as most of the leading players are in the process of pumping in huge amount of money for capacity addition. However, they have retained Grasim as outperformer owing to strong cash flows from the VSF business and likely improvement in sponge iron profitability. Published under Cement News
