Day4 Energy announces first turnkey manufacturing license with Enersis for the eastern European market
Day4 Energy Inc. (TSX: DFE), a leading supplier of high performance, cost-effective solar electric solutions, today announced that it has signed an agreement with Enersis, the second largest PV company in Slovenia, for a 25 megawatt (MW) turnkey manufacturing technology solution for the production of Day4 Energy ("Day4") branded products to address the rapidly growing Eastern European photovoltaic market.
At current market prices and full capacity utilization the 25 MW line is expected to provide approximately 1.2 million Euros per year in royalty revenue to Day4. Once the acquisition of ACI is complete Day4 expects to recognize two distinct revenue streams from these transactions:
On April 26, 2010 Day4 announced that it had entered an agreement in principle to acquire ACI-ecotec GmbH & Co. KG ("ACI"), a privately owned, specialized photovoltaic (PV) equipment design and manufacturing company based in Germany. The combination of the Day4 proprietary technology and ACI's specialized know-how and equipment allows Day4 to immediately launch the offering of its highly anticipated turn-key manufacturing technology solution for the production of PV cells and PV modules.. ACI's existing customer relationships, execution capabilities and solid market reputation provide Day4 with a unique opportunity to rapidly roll out its manufacturing technology offering across a wide cross section of PV manufacturers in a number of key markets. At the same time, ACI's manufacturing process and equipment engineering capabilities will add significant depth to Day4's R&D team and allow the company to significantly accelerate the development of the next generations of PV technology.

Schlifer, METRAC, LEAF Submission to the Parliamentary Committee re Bill C31
These changes, considered cumulatively, remove the ability of a significant number of women who come to Canada with their abusers and rely on the abuser's refugee claim while living under his power and control, to have their risk of persecution assessed at all. The lives of many women will be put at risk and Canada's reputation as a safe haven of gender equality will be severely undermined.

Sonia Gandhi third most powerful woman in Forbes list
New York: German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff were the only women who figured ahead of the 66-year-old Gandhi in the list of 72 politicians, heads of state and business leaders.
Gandhi was also ahead of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who came in seven slots below her.
In a separate list of the world's 100 most powerful women, Forbes ranked Gandhi in the ninth position.
"As president of the Indian National Congress, Gandhi heads the ruling political party of the world's second largest population," read her brief profile on the Forbes website.
"Rumors persist of a rift between her and soft-spoken Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, with many expecting Singh to leave office before the 2014 general elections," it said.
The profile noted that Rahul, described as the "heir apparent in the nation's most famous political dynasty", had recently "snubbed Singh publicly".
Singh's profile noted that the 81-year-old Prime Minister was "credited with shaping India's economic and social welfare reforms". But it also said his "quiet intellectualism renders him a timid public figure".
Rahul's recent criticism of Singh over an ordinance to protect convicted lawmakers was "indicative of Singh's diminishing coterie; rumor has it he will soon resign", the profile said.
Soon after the criticism, Rahul had acted to mend fences with Singh.

well it may be legal to marry/bank your first cousins in Japan but look up the issues happening with Pakistanis marrying first cousins in the UK.

I received a preview copy of Against the Grain: Delicious Recipes for a Whole Food and Grain-Free Diet from Kate at Modern Alternative Mama as part of an offer to do a review and giveaway of the e-book to my readers. This is exciting, because I've never done a giveaway before — so please bear with me on that portion of the post!
This is a very nicely formatted e-book, with lovely pictures and a lot of recipes to work through. If you're new to grain-free cooking, I think it would be an excellent resource – it's very hard to wrap one's mind around how to accommodate not having grains in recipes that you're used to making with grains. Kate has done a very nice job of presenting some simple, palate-pleasing dishes that could easily become staples in a newly-grain-free repertoire.
There were several new cooking tricks that I learned from this book – which surprised me because although I'm always on the lookout for new tricks in the kitchen, I don't often find them. I won't give them away here, but the Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken recipe is very clever, and I was very skeptical that her Chocolate Brownies recipe would work when I read it … so I tried it out (on J, with a tiny little bite for myself, since chocolate still makes me feel funky) and even though it's incredibly simple, it actually works to make a very chewy moist brownie without any grain flour – I was a bit flabbergasted! (J called them the "mysteriously disappearing brownies". )
I also really appreciated the opening recipe of the book, the Spicy Lime-Marinated Beef Strips. I'm still trying to get a handle on marinades; they don't ever seem to work out well for me – which is a good sign that I probably need to start with some tried-and-true recipes like this one to get me going.
Unfortunately, because my body is oh-so-ever funky, for me a lot of the recipes needed substitutions because most of them have onions, garlic, or shallots in them – and believe me, if I could use these ingredients in my cooking, I would, because they add so much flavor to a dish! (A recent attempt at reintroducing them, however, did NOT go well … I will not share…) This is of course no fault of Kate's! But if you do have allium issues, you may have a harder time working with the recipes in this book.
On the other hand, a really nice thing about this book was that it isn't cruciferous veggie-heavy (i.e. cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, turnips, etc.), bean-heavy, or potato-heavy. Although potatoes are usually not that prevalent in grain-free cuisine because they're not "legal" on GAPS and tend to be limited in Paleo circles, I find that a lot of grain-free recipes can come to rely very heavily on crucifers, and many GAPS recipes use a fair amount of beans. Both of these can be problematic for some people.
In other words, I found that this book does a really good job of balancing food sensitivity issues – not everything is crucifer- or bean- or potato-free, but there are plenty of recipes that are, so if you have issues with one or more of these foods, most of the recipes are still useful. And although there are quite a few recipes that include nightshades, which are also a common sensitivity, in many cases they are in the form of spices which could easily be omitted, or replaced with cumin.
There are a lot of good GAPS-friendly, or GAPS-adaptable recipes in this book. (A number of recipes do call for coconut milk as a substitution for cream; if this is used, one should be cautious on GAPS to use a brand of coconut milk — or fresh homemade — that does not use xantham or guar gum, which are grain derivatives.) It definitely could serve as a very useful supplement to the recipes included in the GAPS book itself. Against the Grain has a lot of recipes which give some new and flavorful ideas for what to do with all that broth you're supposed to be consuming! And you can always add in extra ghee and sauerkraut (or other probiotic ferment) on the side to make them more GAPS-errific.
My one major caveat with the recipes in this book, especially for someone doing GAPS, is that a number of them call for cooking with olive oil. According to the GAPS book (p. 273), cooking with olive oil should always be avoided, as it can be damaged under heat; it is always best served raw. Coconut oil, or another healthy fat, should be substituted for cooking.
The GAPS-friendly (with a few substitutions) dishes in Against the Grain include all of the main dishes, most of the soups, most of the sides, and most of the desserts. In fact, most of the recipes in the book could definitely be used, or modified, to supplement the Intro stages – always using homemade bone broth, never canned!—when stock is called for, and adding as much extra healthy fat and probiotics as you can handle when serving. (No, it is not a problem if there's a thick sheen of fat on your bowl of soup! It's a good thing! Although it can insulate the soup significantly, so be careful not to burn your tongue!)
I've compiled a full list of which recipes from Against the Grain are suitable for the individual stages of Intro.

The Baseball Hall of Fame has three new members
12/9/13 in MLB | Pat | 5233 respect
On the list will be many players of many different types. Some will be confirmed steroid users, others will be perceived to be clean as a whistle. Some will be mortal locks to make the HOF on the first ballot, while others will be stuck in limbo for a while, wondering which ballot will finally send them to Cooperstown, if ever.
There are a few former managers who no longer have to wait for their phone call.
Joe Torre, Bobby Cox and Tony La Russa have officially been unanimously elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame by the expansion era committee. They received all 16 votes from the committee, plenty more than the 12 that were needed for induction.
Torre is best known for his time with the Yankees, when he won four World Series championships, but he also managed the Mets, Braves, Cardinals and Dodgers. In 29 seasons total, he finished with the combined record of 2326-1997 as a manager.
La Russa managed for 33 years between the White Sox, Athletics and Cardinals. He won a World Series with the Athletics and two more with the Cardinals, and finished with a career record of 2728-2365.
Cox managed for 29 seasons, 25 of which were spent with the Atlanta Braves. He also managed 4 seasons for the Blue Jays. Although his Braves won 13 straight division championships (interrupted by the strike in 1994), they only managed to win one World Series. They won 5 National League pennants. His career record was 2504-2001.
These are definitely three legends of the game, and well deserving of their HOF inductions.

Chicken and Mushroom Baked Rice
I just bought a new oven (Rowenta Pro 9080) a few weeks back and the first thing I cooked with it is my favourite baked rice. The photo you see above is the baked rice freshly out of the oven, taken on my kitchen countertop. As a kid, it was such a treat to eat baked rice at Swensen's and now as an adult, it is an even greater treat to be able to cook this at home – baked rice anytime I want, with unlimited variations (check out the different baked rice recipes at bottom of page). I love the end result of my first attempt at chicken and mushroom baked rice – the taste of this recipe is quite close to Swensen's baked rice which I simply adore since young, thanks to CookBake Legacy whom I referenced and adapted the recipe from. Bake this just before serving to enjoy the freshly melted cheese. If you are having a home party, bake this in disposable aluminium tray for fuss-free clean ups – this recipe can feed quite a few folks and so far, it has been a hit with my friends.

(Serves 4-6)
- 1 1/2 cups uncooked rice, rinsed and drained
- Water to cook rice
- 5 garlic cloves
- 200g (white or brown) button mushrooms, sliced
- 200g chicken fillet, cubed
- 15g butter
- a few tablespoons uncooked Campbell's cream of mushroom soup
- Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
- Shredded Cheddar Cheese (I use mild red cheddar)
- Salt & Pepper
- Parsley (garnishing)
Chicken & Mushroom Baked Rice (before baked)
1. In a heated wok or saucepan, melt the butter. Add the sliced mushrooms and cut chicken pieces, stir-fry for a few minutes until the surface of the chicken pieces is white.
2. Add the washed uncooked rice, salt and black pepper to taste. Stir well. Transfer contents of wok/pan to a rice cooker. Add the garlic cloves. Add water to cook rice (I use slightly more than 1 1/2 cups of water – adjust the water amount according to your cooker).
3. When the rice is cooked, portion out the rice into individual oven-safe baking dishes (or use a 20cm x 20 cm square alumnium tray) until about half the height of the dish.
4. Spread some mushroom soup sauce on top of the rice, and topped with a layer of shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese.
5. Baked in a pre-heated oven at 200°C (392°F) for about 20-25 minutes, or until all the cheese melted and is very slightly browned. Garnish with parsley.
Baked in an alumnium square pan – great for home parties

Just made this for dinner and it was yummylicious!
No more trips to Swensen's for Chicken baked rice! hehehe..
thanks a lot, wiffi :)
Just wanna share with you that i used your recipe and it came out perfect!
Yummylicious ! It melts in your mouth :))
There is no Swenson's restaurant in Tokyo so cooking this reminds me of Singapore!
Thanks Wiffy!
Hi Wiffy,
I used this recipe, and it was my first successful attempt at baked rice, yay! Thanks a lot for sharing! I added sweetcorn niblets too, and they went nicely! Was also thinking raisins would also be a nice touch.
Just also wanted to point out that you didn't account for the chicken and mushroom in the instructions (when/how to put it in the pan). But it was not a problem, it was quite easy to figure out ;)
Thanks for sharing again!
Hi Florence, thanks for your kind words and glad it went well! Corn and raisins sound like a good addition to the baked rice, thanks for the ideas.
For the chicken & mushrooms, the instructions stated step 2. Stir fry or saute them first, then add rice etc and stir fry again… before dishing them into a rice cooker to cook :)
hi wiffy. i'm a total noob when it comes to cooking, but swensens backed rice is one of my favourites, so im determined to learn how to do this! have a few questions though..
1) if i wanna cook for 2 people, i assume the portions will scale down by half, so its 0.75 cups of rice? i have never cooked rice before, how much does 1 cup of rice equate? and how much water do i need to cook 1 cup of rice?
2) swensens recipe uses fried chicken, so i guess i will add this in after the rice is cooked (before putting in oven)?
thanks for your help!
for two persons, you can cook either 0.75 or 1 cup (the cup which usually comes with the rice bin, 1 cup = 200ml water) of rice. water is roughly until the first "line" of your pinky finger. or you can ask your mum how much water she usually add.
yup, if you have cooked fried chicken, you can add this after rice is cooked and before putting in oven. Hope it turns out well :)
Hey there, I just stumbled upon your blog and I'm loving it! However, I do have a quick question regarding this recipe – after the mushroom and chicken is sauted, do I take the wok off the heat before adding the raw rice? I'm afraid of the rice being hard if I don't ^__^; Thank you!
I'm sorry for my late reply. You don't have to take the wok off the heat. You can add the rice and stir fry it for a few seconds. Then transfer the contents of the wok to the rice cooker to cook it :)
Wow your food pictures look wonderful! and appetisting..stumbled upon your blog when i searched for pizza..saw your pita bread pizza recipes..didn't know we can make pizza using pita bread..then came to the baked rice section…was practically drooling at the pictures..just wondering…can i make baked rice using toaster oven? i don't have any full pledge oven at home..only toaster oven and microwave oven..and where did you get your fish shaped ceramic dish? so cute :)
thanks…am inspired by you to make some dishes…
Since I dont have an oven at home and i only have a microwave oven with grilling function , is it possible to attain the same results . I love this dish so much !

What are 10 things YOU know to be true?
I was interested and intrigued by Sarah's '10 things you know to be true' list exercise, particularly with the pattern she observed in hearing others; that you would continuously see items exact and opposite to your own, items you've never heard of, or thought about before in exactly that light.
I'm fascinated by our definitions of what we consider to be 'truth', and the disputes between our definitions.
So I propose we post a couple lists of our own here, and experience our agreements (and disagreements), learn some new ideas and lines of thought. Personally, I think it best to write your own list BEFORE reading the ones posted here to avoid influence ;)
I hope a couple people will be interested in participating in this miniature project. And, hey, if you see something in someone's list you'd like to ask about, or learn more about, or debate. . .we now have the TED conversation platform to make that possible.
My list:
1. These are the most exciting times in which we could ever hope to be alive which have already occurred.
2. Too often, we allow inertia to control our actions.
3. Everyone should travel.
4. 'Because that's the way things are' is not a valid reason.
5. Whenever you say 'I had no choice', you're lying.
6. It is possible to have an honest and even pleasant relationship with someone you do not like.
7. Loving someone or something heart and soul does not necessarily make it good for you, or them, or it.
8. There are ideas and inventions yet to come which will make into reality what we consider to be fantasy today.
9. Everyone has at least one story worth hearing.
10. My truth is not final.
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
May 16 2011: My list:
1) The truth is the best source of happiness, and the worst at destroying lives.
2) Trust is more difficult to obtain than love.
3) Everyone should hear both sides of the story.
4) No one should be denied the freedom to see beyond their front yard.
5) Forgiving is the ultimate act of love.
6) Not everything has to be justified.
7) We all share a common goal.
8) There is someone who just said the same thing you just said.
9) No one has to over analyze love, just enjoy it.
10) The reason this list took two hours to write was because I could not find my glasses.

Roundup: Fall 2013 with CORE
The first impression that CORE gave me, as an overwhelmed, over-eager freshman, was an Evening with Jack Dorsey, one of the earliest events this Fall. It was sold out very early, and I remember the excited buzz and anticipation around a raffle to distribute tickets to freshmen. To many of us, it represented the possibilities of a Columbia education we had long heard of – that the co-founder of Twitter, and many other influential individuals, would deign to devote some time to speak to an audience of naïve college students. I wasn't one of the lucky ones to attend the event, but it made a searing impression on me of what the Columbia entrepreneurship community could achieve.
A few weeks later, I formally joined CORE. I found myself awestruck in Roone Auditorium on a Thursday night, watching Alexis Ohanian, the co-founder of Reddit, wax lyrical about his initial struggles, his frank observations, and his deepest revelations. The founders of GroupMe and Codecademy, who were inconceivably in our very seats just a few years ago, exchanged comments and witty banter. Afterwards, I waited two hours for an autograph, and he left with a small group for Mel's Burger afterwards.
I personally found CORE's activities this semester incredibly helpful. I joined CORE without a business plan in mind, without experience under my belt, driven only by an admiration for entrepreneurial principles, and a determination to explore the field. Some people just know they want to be entrepreneurs; they feel it in their bones, they live it – it's a thirst they've waited to quench their whole life. I wasn't 100% sure I wanted to become an entrepreneur, and I can't say I am now. But the packed line-up of events this semester has given me much to think about.
Besides hosting notable bigwigs, CORE also launched events to aid the aspiring entrepreneur. Coding w CORE + ADi gathered enthusiasts in classrooms in Hamilton to pick up entirely foreign computer languages in a relaxed setting. It's an equivalent to an actual CS course, without the stress of GPA-related concerns, and energized by the genuine desire to learn. Dine & Discuss events provided more intimate environments for students to interact with entrepreneurs, and bragging rights along the lines of "I shared a pizza with entrepreneurs from Uber" – that would become oh so valuable in the future when they truly become household names! The Startup Internship Program was launched for Spring 2014 in collaboration with CCE. For those of us concerned that an internship with a startup is hard to find and risky to commit to, SIP eradicates those fears. Among other events, a consistent feature of CORE are the Town Halls –dialogues held every month or so, for members of the entrepreneurial community to gather and discuss pitches and business ideas. At the end of the semester, I felt less ignorant– but also starkly aware of how much else I do not know.
One thing I love about CORE is the attention and respect paid to non-tech entrepreneurship. Who says entrepreneurship is only for engineers, or coders? To many, entrepreneurship is inextricably linked with developing a top app, or creating a revolutionary social media platform. I initially thought that being entirely, woefully inept at coding excluded me from being entreprenership. But that's an inadequate, reduced understanding. This semester, CORE explored alternative forms of entrepreneurship through two panels of fashion bloggers, who shared their approach in establishing themselves in the traditionally restrictive world of fashion. And next semester, you can look forward to an exciting BuzzFeed guest, a slew of events exploring social entrepreneurship, and much more.
Here's to a great Spring 2014 as well!

"Spit me a flow."
You tell me that I'm the classiest woman you've ever seen, and I ain't arguing. I ain't taking credit, either, but the way you said it was just so serene that it might've been the most genuine thing to fall upon these doubtful ears of mine. My ears are ringin' with the sound of your voice beating on my ear drums, droppin' a beat so sick I actually might start believin' that you're the one. A lover? Takes one to know one, but it takes two to make love. Ahah, I'm just playing, we don't gotta hit the sheets just yet because I'd rather spend our time in these early months conversing; making love to your mind. Let down my walls and swap stories, get to know your type of grind. Like coffee beans, well grounded with a hint of caffeine; share a relationship so hyper minus the light speed that it would make a kid on ADD seem like a dream. Okay, I know, that was kind of corny but the way you speak so sweet is making me a little… lightheaded. Ell-oh-ell, catch that? Rewind and remix; go ahead and scratch that. Switch up the verses, turn up the treble and now I'm handing over the mic to the next MC. You've heard the best or at least the corniest of me, now it's your turn [to turn the tables].+

News and Features
Throwing the book at people is nothing new, but in our post-9/11 world the screws are tightening. Take San Francisco, whose District Attorney is Terence "Kayo" Hallinan, a progressive fellow. Indeed, in his 2000 re-election bid Hallinan survived years of abuse in the San Francisco Chronicle for supposedly being altogether too slack a prosecutor, with poor conviction rates and kindred offenses betokening softness on crime.
Yet this is the same Hallinan who's hit two gay AIDS activists with an escalating barrage of charges, currently amounting to forty-one alleged felonies and misdemeanors, all adding up to what he has stigmatized in the local press as "terrorism." That's a trigger word these days, as Sarah Jane Olson, a k a Kathleen Soliah, recently discovered when a judge put her away for twenty years to life for actions back in the 1970s.
Held in San Francisco County Jail since last November 28 are Michael Petrelis and David Pasquarelli. Neither man has been able to make bail, which Hallinan successfully requested to be set at $500,000 for Petrelis and $600,000 for Pasquarelli.
Why this astonishing bail? What it boils down to is that the two accused are dissidents notorious for raising all kinds of inconvenient, sometimes obscene hell about AIDS issues. They've long been detested by San Francisco's AIDS establishment, which Petrelis in particular has savaged as being disfigured by overpaid executives, ineffective HIV-prevention campaigns and all-round complacency and sloth.
They've taken kooky positions. Pasquarelli, for example, believes that HIV doesn't cause AIDS. Petrelis hasn't scrupled to form alliances with right-wingers in Congress when it suits his tactical book. Being attacked by them can be an unpleasant experience. Who wants to get phoned in the middle of the night and be asked whether your wife has got your syphilitic dick in her mouth?
The two were thrown in jail because of an escalating campaign they launched late last year amid calls for an expansion of quarantining laws across the country, prompted by fears of bioterrorism. Petrelis and Pasquarelli took after an SF public health official, Jeffrey Klausner, for seeming to endorse quarantining of people with AIDS. They also assailed the media, notably the San Francisco Chronicle, for relaying what the two claimed were inflated statistics about increases in the rates of syphilis and HIV in San Francisco. The higher the stats, the more dollars flow to various AIDS bureaucracies. The Chronicle claimed tremulously that not only had its reporters been showered with filthy nocturnal calls to their homes but that there had been a bomb threat against the paper.
On the basis of what has surfaced so far, the charges and bail are way out of kilter with the facts of the case. Their severity defies logical explanation, unless we acknowledge the loathing Petrelis and Pasquarelli inspire in San Francisco's respectable element and among some well-known organizers.
Take Kate Sorensen, an AIDS activist who herself was held on $1 million bail for leading demonstrations outside the 2000 Republican convention in Philadelphia. The DA there took her to trial on three felonies, though she was only convicted of a misdemeanor. Such experiences have not evoked any solidarity with the San Francisco pair. Wrote Sorensen recently, "I will fight for our right to demonstrate. I will fight for our right to free speech. I will fight this police state, but I will not fight for you."
This self-righteous stance was elicited by an open letter of concern addressing the prosecution of Petrelis and Pasquarelli. Organized by the radical gay civil libertarian Bill Dobbs of Queer Watch, the open letter (go to www.openletteronline.com and look under "Politics & Activism," then "Petrelis-Pasquarelli") has been signed by hundreds, including many well-known gay figures like Harvey Fierstein, Scott Tucker, Barbara Smith and Judy Greenspan. The letter questions the motivation for the charges and makes the scarcely extremist demand that the two get fair legal treatment and reasonable bail.
Moderate though the terms of the letter are, it has aroused much fury from the San Francisco gay establishment, whose animus against Petrelis and Pasquarelli was what apparently prompted Hallinan to have the pair charged and arrested in the first place. On November 15 Martin Delaney of Project Inform, Mike Shriver of the mayor's office and fifteen others published a letter in the Bay Area Reporter urging people to pressure Hallinan, demanding "full prosecution of Pasquarelli, Petrelis and their collaborators."
Petrelis and Pasquarelli have a potent posse howling for their heads. "They fucked with the wrong people," said a health official quoted in the San Francisco Examiner on January 23. The "wrong people" include a broad swath of liberals and leftists in and out of government, the AIDS establishment and media figures.
Time was when a decent death threat used to be a badge of honor in the Fourth Estate. Jimmy Breslin recently recalled to Dobbs his glorious "Son of Sam" days, when violent threats were so routine at the New York Daily News that the paper's switchboard operator was wont to ask callers whether they were registering "general death threats" or "specific death threats for Mr. Breslin."
Granted, Chronicle editor Phil Bronstein is a terror survivor of "Attack by Lizard in the LA Zoo," and his wife, Sharon Stone, is the marquee celebrity for one of Petrelis's targets, the American Foundation for AIDS Research, but Bronstein should remember that Daily News phone operator and get off his high horse.
Hallinan's got a radical past and even radical pretensions. He knows as well as anyone that conspiracy charges have long been used to smash protest. And he knows as well as anyone that militant protest is at the cutting edge of social conscience. It's easy to grandstand about the foul tactics, the obscenities, the all-round vulgarity of Pasquarelli and Petrelis, but should this add up to a demand that they be thrown into prison for years? Of course it shouldn't. Judge Parker Meeks Jr. should resist the entreaties of the posse and cut the preposterous bail drastically or release them on their own recognizance. Hallinan should get his sense of perspective back, and drop the drastic charges.
Questions about Enron's links to the White House and Dick Cheney's Energy Task Force are reassuring. They mean that the nation, after the September 11 attacks, is now confident enough to focus on some of the more traditional threats to our democracy, like the corporate takeover of our political system.
Following the release of the White House energy plan last year, the Government Accounting Office (GAO) demanded the Energy Task Force's records, including any interactions with major Bush campaign donors like Enron's Ken Lay. The Vice President's office refused to release the documents, claiming that Congress was exceeding its oversight authority. One of the oil and gas men whose privacy the White House wants to protect is Cheney himself, who in 1999, as CEO of Halliburton, was a member of the Petroleum Council, an advisory group to the Energy Department. The council issued a report calling for the opening of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) and of roadless areas of the West to fossil fuel exploitation, proposals incorporated into the White House plan.
The GAO was preparing to sue for the first time in its eighty-year history when the terrorists struck. It then put its suit on hold so it could focus on "homeland security" and let the White House do the same. With the collapse of Enron and the beginning of Congressional hearings on the largest bankruptcy in US history, that holding pattern appears to be ending.
Still, even as environmental groups backed away from criticizing the President after September 11, the White House continued to push its "free market" environmental agenda. This past October, Interior Secretary Gale Norton had to explain why she'd altered scientific data, in a letter to the Senate, to make it appear that oil operations in the Arctic would not harm hundreds of thousands of migratory caribou, when in fact her own Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) had provided her with data suggesting it would. "We did make a mistake. We will take steps to clarify and correct that," she told reporters in explaining one of the many discrepancies in her letter.
Norton has also concluded that drilling in the Arctic won't violate an international treaty that protects polar bears. The FWS, which has twice issued reports stating that drilling poses a threat to the bears, was directed to "correct these inconsistencies" with Norton's position. Polar bears can live with oil drilling, the FWS now tells us. They'll just look more like panda bears.
Ten years after President Bush Sr. pledged "no net loss of wetlands," George W. has signed off on an Army Corps of Engineers proposal that will make it easier for developers and mining companies to dredge and fill America's vital wetlands through a "general permitting" process that is rarely if ever challenged. Again, Norton failed to forward comments from her FWS to the corps, even though the FWS had written that the proposed policy change would result in "tremendous destruction of aquatic and terrestrial habitat."
Among the beneficiaries of the new engineer corps rules will be mining companies involved in "mountaintop removal" in Appalachia. J. Steven Griles, Norton's deputy, was a longtime mining lobbyist, and Norton herself lobbied for the lead industry.
Over at the EPA Christie Whitman won greenie points when she ordered GE to begin dredging PCBs out of the Hudson River. At the same time, the EPA has begun moving top career people (from the office of wetlands, enforcement, etc.) around the agency in a strange reorganization no one quite understands. "Are they purposely designing this to hamstring EPA for the next twenty years?" wonders a career employee who also complains that enforcement actions (as opposed to industry-friendly out-of-court settlements) are down significantly in the past year.
Under White House and lobbyist pressure, the EPA is also getting ready to relax clean air standards (that, as governor of New Jersey, Whitman supported) requiring old coal-fired power plants to shut down or significantly reduce gaseous emissions that contribute to acid rain and other forms of pollution.
Even Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham's recent Detroit auto show announcement that the government will work with the auto industry to develop pollution-free hydrogen-fuel-cell cars got mixed reactions. That's because he used the announcement to abandon a program aimed at improving existing auto fuel-efficiency standards. As usual, most of these environmental policy decisions are rife with corporate conflicts of interest, but conflicts that in recent months have gotten even less media attention than they normally would.
In her public appearances Whitman now emphasizes the need to protect America's water supply from terrorists (if not arsenic). Norton has been pushing the argument that drilling in ANWR can provide as much oil as we import from Iraq in eighty years (or the oily equivalent of sixteen years of Cheney's diet), and President Bush insists that Arctic drilling will make us "more secure at home." If nothing else, America's new "war on terrorism" is helping the Bush White House in its old war on the environment.
The Supreme Court has made a decision that is wrongheaded, and wrong.

Robert Brame III, American Vision's board secretary, reportedly tops
President Bush's list of likely appointees to the National Labor
Relations Board, the five-member agency that determines the fate of
workers seeking union recognition and helps define how federal law
protects women, gays and lesbians, and others seeking representation
in the workplace.
Brame, a management lawyer, previously
served on the board from 1997 to 2000. Technically appointed by Bill
Clinton, he was actually a choice forced upon the former President by
Senate Republicans who refused to act on Clinton's appointments
unless he gave Brame the job. During those three years, Brame was the
most frequent dissenter from the board's pro-labor decisions. He
opposed moves to make it easier for temporary workers, graduate
students and medical interns and residents to unionize. He was a
lonely advocate of steps to limit the ability of unions to use dues
money to pay for organizing. Brame even complained about NLRB rulings
that "facilitate union organizing in the modern work

Vision and the very real prospect that he could end up chairing a

opponents. Taking the lead is the gay and lesbian labor group Pride
at Work, which aims, says interim executive director Marta Ames, "to
make enough noise so that Bush decides it's not worth it to appoint
someone who is associated with the viewpoint that LGBT people are
'monsters' who should be stoned."
"Gays and lesbians,
women, people of color and young people are harassed on the job all
the time, and that harassment becomes vicious when we're trying to
organize into unions," says Sarah Luthens, a Seattle union organizer
active with the Out Front Labor Coalition. "To think that someone
like Brame would be in a position to decide whether that harassment
represents a violation of labor laws that are already too weak is
Despite statements to the contrary, the rule is resulting in tragic circumstances for women abroad.

We had our installation January of last year and now the battery is telling us that it needs to be replaced. This sounds like an awful short lifetime, considering the circuit that supplies it is on our generator so it has never been without power. Is this within the expected life or shorter than normal? How do you go about replacing it? Does it need to be replaced?
Contact FiberSafe Battery at 1.866.327.5755, should have a 3 year warranty from the date on the sticker on top.
if you have a whole home generator than I would consider unplugging the battery part as it is redundant and not really necessary
if you have a whole home generator than I would consider unplugging the battery part as it is redundant and not really necessary
My 3801hgv-b re-syncs whenever power is lost and it has the battery backup attached. It seems the 3801hgv-b is extremely sensitive to power fluctuations and resets itself. If the iNID behaves similarly then the battery backup won't really make much of a difference.
Never had an issue with mine, battery comes one right away with no disruption to the iNID. Have not had a battery last long though going through 3 in a year and a half.
It may just be the battery backup used with the 3801 then. I replaced it with a standard power supply plugged into my rack battery backup and I haven't had any issues since.
The 3801 shouldn't re sync during a power failure if you have the Bellin rev b bbu unit and it's in proper working order. That symptom points to the bbu battery being dead or a problem with the power lines in the home (e. g. a power surge disrupting the VDSL2 signal).
I called AT&T a few weeks after the install about it and was told as long as the battery backup powered up the 3801 then it was behaving correctly. I figured that was total BS. So I just unplugged the belkin bbu and used a standard power supply to plug the 3801 into the rack bbu. I've had zero issues since. Well, other than the 3801 being a POS
what standard ps did you plug into your 3801 It has to be 3.0 amps, could cause damage and other issues if you just use whatever power supply you had laying around or if you use one designed for the reg stb
Erm, I ordered one that matched the belkin bbu specs. I'm not a total moron.
Except that most whole home generators sense the loss of utility power, then start, then switch over to power the home. The process takes 30 - 60 seconds or so, during which time the iNID would lose power and have to re-sync. Using the battery means no loss of sync.

This was too bland, so I added some curry powder, tumeric and a bit of cayenne pepper. Much better.
Farmer John's Pumpkin Soup

sreneefe Posted: 10/16/09
The combination of sweet and savory flavors is so scrumptious. This is not really a meal by itself, but it is a wonderful, elegant start for a meal. It would also complement a sandwich well.
Mairead Posted: 11/24/09
This is the single most revolting recipe I've gotten from this site. The acidity of the apple overpowered everything else in the soup, making it like drinking a slightly bland bile. I tried adding sugar, but it still wasn't enough to recover any hint of pumpkin flavor. The stench from the acidy mess was enough that I couldn't even get my fiancee to try it. Not that I blame him -- it smelled about like it tasted: absolutely horrible. What a waste of ingredients!
mollybrown Posted: 11/01/10
Make no mistake, mashed pumpkin is NOT the same as canned pumpkin. After spending an hour on this recipe I learned that the hard way. But even with that, I have to agree with others that the tartness of the apple is overpowering. Curry powder helped. But it seems it needs something smokey maybe.
Angelawhocooks Posted: 11/22/11
Had this Saturday night and it was delicious. The dollop of creme fraiche with the lemon zest really pulls it all together. Yum.
wyomingskimom Posted: 11/22/13
nope, not what we had in Germany... I googled 'german punkin soup' and found a recipe that called for fresh punkin and a butternut squash. A friend of mine suggested adding a can of candied yams for the squash... the pureed down to 2 cups. i added about 3 cups of the soup.... MUCH more betta!

SPOKANE VALLEY-- On Monday, Spokane Valley Sheriff's Deputy Tim Jones responded to the new WalMart construction site at 5025 E. Sprague Ave. on a theft call.
Deputy Jones contacted an Aztec Electric employee who told him that sometime over the weekend four 1000 foot wooden spools of MC insulated copper wire were stolen from a construction truck that was parked inside one of the main buildings.
The employee told Deputy Jones that the wooden spools are three feet in diameter and that the total loss of the copper was estimated at $3,000.00.
Anyone with information regarding this copper theft is asked to call Crime Check at 509-456-2233.

desperately seeking binders/pants/shirts/jackets!I am a small in shirts, small or medium in jackets, and size 28-32 or 30-32 in pants!thanks so much!!
Above: is what I am hoping to send to empty from my closet, and send to someone who will love them more than I did. Pictured are Two long sleeve shirts: Black Size Large (More like a medium) and a grey and black quarter sleeve size Medium (More like small, it clings), two tank tops; black sized small, a pair of brown, slightly worn moccasins; and a Grey never been worn, fitted, coat (Yes you can pop the collar :D) *Note: With the coat, I am short at 5'2" so it goes down to a little below my knees.I am hoping to trade in these and obtain more masculine, better fitting clothing. For the first time in my life I am in a safe place and am able to be myself, rather than have to play what I am not. If you guys could please help, that would be amazing. I am broke and unemployed, so I cannot buy clothes for myself, and none of what I own fits. I am a size small, 26'-27' in jeans, and a 5 in shoes. Anything would be of help. *I am located within the US and can ship within the states.To contact me please message at: zombiebile.tumbler.com/askThanks :D

4 feminine shirts gently used (2 were never used). From PINK, Old Navy, Hollister, and Kohl's. All a junior's medium.
I'in the northeastern US, I will ship anywhere. If you want to trade masculine clothes I will find a way to pay shipping on my items. If you have nothing to give me, then I really really can't afford to pay shipping for my items, sorry.
Hey guys, I'm Yven, a 16 year old transguy from Germany! My URL is: http://thatonetransguy.tumblr.com
I am seeking: a binder (size is somewhere M to XL, depends on the brand). It is really badly needed since my dysphoria keeps on growing and I get little to no support from my parents!!
I also need masculine clothing, especially sweaters: sizes S & M.
I can give: feminine clothing in the sizing range from S to L; I have stuff from H&M, C&A, Forever21 and more! Shirts, Pullovers, skirts, dresses, jumpsuits, etc.
I can help you with shipping, payment, etc but only through Western Union or something similar. Same goes the other way round, depending on where you are I might need help with shipping.

HEY THERE! So lately I've been upping the effort that I put into my presentation (I'm agender and want to present more androgynously) and one of my goals has been to finally empty my wardrobe of all the stuff that I don't wear anymore or that I don't feel comfortable in.
Most of these are medium or small, if you want size specifics please contact me. All of these clothes are gently used; some of them haven't even been worn more than once.
Here's a list of what is available:
9. Plaid dress 10. Owl sweater11. Pearly beaded black sweater12. Daisy transparent shirt13. Peacock feather print shirt with wide collar (it also has a crackly pattern on it, it's not wrinkled!)14. Very long brown scarf with cute animals printed on it15. Brightly patterned tights (there's some little skulls in the pattern, cool)16. (NOT SHOWN) Black footless leggings17. Grey dress
Please contact me via ask or email me at email@example.com! You must be able to pay for shipping, and though paying for the clothes themselves is not required, donations would be greatly appreciated so that I may work towards presenting the way I want as well (that being said, if you have XS or XXS masculine or unisex clothing that you would be willing to trade, please let me know).
Url: aporiavaporeonTop binder: extra small, from this website, and is gently used (I believe it was only used for a month or two)Bottom binder: small, from this ebay seller, it was only tried on once and found to be too small for the user. (assuming you should probably be a b-cup for it)I live in Oklahoma and I'm willing to ship within the US (unless the seeker can pay for shipping outside it)We DO own a cat, but we got her after he had surgery and these binders have been sitting in the closet away from her. If they need to be washed before they're shipped out then I can do that.

The big oil companies, such as Shell and BP, are seen as pretty dull investments. They are good sources of dividend income, but are unlikely to give you big capital gains. Those looking to make big money from oil shares prefer to chance their arms with the smaller exploration and-production (E&P) companies.
For these firms, big oil discoveries can result in massive share-price gains – but dry wells (where you drill for oil and come up with nothing but an empty hole) can lead to equally big losses.
This oil stock has been one of the sector's great success stories for much of the last ten years. It has become [...]
