What are the next sustainable "shades" of green?
By Tara Ninmann - Tuesday October 22, 2013As we round the corner of our third year of our magazine, Sustainable Construction , I continue to see trends emerging in the ever-evolving sustainable construction market. Two of these "shades" of green include product certification programs and building for durability. Product certification programs are now available in the sustainable construction market. It really boils down to this: Construction professionals want to ensure the products they are using in sustainable construction are not only created in a sustainable fashion, but also that these products are sustainable throughout their life cycle. Check out our "Moving Sustainability Forward with Cradle to Cradle Certified Products" story in our most... -
"Green" is all around us
By Tara Ninmann - Tuesday May 21, 2013Now that spring has finally sprung in the Midwest, a new energy is in the air. Everything is sprouting new life … trees, flowers and yes, even construction projects. I took note on a recent drive and sure enough, there is "green" all around in the form of sustainable construction projects. Take a look at these two local projects – both are located within an hour drive of our office. Clock Shadow Building - Milwaukee, Wisconsin The mixed-use Clock Shadow Building in the densely developed Walker Point neighborhood of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. was constructed in 2012 last year on a vacant brownfield site. The 30,370-square-foot office building contains several sustainable attributes, such as daylighting , geothermal... -
Going green can help contractors avoid being in the red
By Tara Ninmann - Wednesday February 27, 2013Sustainability has been a buzzword in the construction industry for years. We are now seeing a significant increase in new, and existing, construction projects pursuing increasingly higher levels of sustainability. This is driven partly by regulation, and the host of sustainability measurement programs available, but it's also due to the recognition by building owners and contractors that sustainability offers a genuine opportunity to be profitable. Here at Sustainable Construction magazine, we've given you the opportunity to participate in a Sustainability Self Assessment survey over the last several months. We'll have more results to share with you in future issues, but overall the initial responses have validated the... -
Tweet your way to sustainability
By Tara Ninmann - Thursday August 30, 2012Construction companies have recognized the importance of social media to promote their businesses. Many are active on Twitter and Facebook and regularly engage with customers and industry experts via social media. Here at Sustainable Construction we also recognize the importance of social medial. In particular, I have found Twitter to be a great way to stay in-the-know on sustainable topics, product and breaking news. Whether you are a large contractor with established sustainability initiatives or a smaller company looking to win a bid, there is a ton of information available to you on Twitter. You just have to look. Start with following our Twitter feed @SusConstruction for the latest sustainable construction industry news and...

Not sure that I can provide responses -- may be best to call somoene at Oracle for spefic responses.
I just see what's in the news releases. Seems Red Kite bought $8.33 million in equity (9.8 million shares), is paying $10 million for the NSR. Seems offtake agreement has been signed. Not sure if the $10 million loan has been made.
I think it's a great development. Significant shareholders would now include Red Kite and Richstone (Chinese group).
I think anyone selling shares now (below the financing price) has to have their head examined. OMN is trading at such a cheap level. Hence Red Kite jumping in for such a big financing at the .85 price level.

Introduction of BPEL 2.0 forEach activity – valuable loop and standard based successor to FlowN
1BPEL 2.0 introduced the forEach activity – similar to for [-loop] found in many programming languages. Oracle SOA Suite 11g adopted BPEL 2.0, first in run time (PS2) and later in Design Time (JDeveloper) as well (PS3 an beyond). For BPEL processes created using BPEL 2.0, forEach is a looping mechanism – similar to repeatUntil and while – and also the successor to the proprietary Oracle extension to BPEL 1.x called FlowN. In that latter capacity, forEach is the activity that enables parallelism in BPEL processes to a dynamic degree.
The well known Flow activity also supports parallelism – but only for a static number of branches, known at design time. FlowN (1.x) and forEach (2.0) add the ability to execute a scope a dynamic number of times, determined at run time.
For example when an operation needs to be performed on multiple elements in a collection, such as all order lines in an order or all persons in a travel booking, forEach is valuable – especially when it makes sense to perform the operation on multiple elements at the same time.
Note however that parallelism in BPEL is a relative concept: a single BPEL process instance is never operated on in more than one JVM thread, so More >

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- Tyrann Mathieu says it's not the money he's chasing. He just wants to play football again.
The former Heisman Trophy finalist and LSU star is one of the more intriguing defensive back prospects in this year's draft. He's fast, tough and a big-time playmaker.
He's also been through drug rehab, arrested and he spent last season on the sideline after coach Les Miles booted him off the team.
And he's telling everyone who will listen at this year's annual NFL scouting combine that his troubles are behind him and that he's rededicated himself to the game after spending a year away from it.
So his mission in Indianapolis is simple: convince NFL scouts that they should give him a second chance.

Wii U GamePad Detailed
Nintendo showcased the redesigned controller for the upcoming Wii U.
Today at Nintendo's Direct Pre-E3 presentation, the company formally introduced the redesigned Wii U tablet controller, dubbed the Wii U GamePad. Furthermore, Nintendo talked about various features the controller's touch screen will have as well as its functionality.
Although it looks similar to the controller we saw at E3 2011, the control inputs have been rearranged slightly. The circle pads have been replaced with analog sticks that can click inward and provide "alternate control functionality." The directional pad and B, A, X, and Y buttons have been moved closer to the touch screen in the middle, meaning they are no longer directly parallel to the two analog sticks. The Start and Select buttons have also been moved to the lower right corner of the screen. The form factor of the controller has also changed, with hand grips on the two bottom corners of the controller.
The controller will be able to double as an universal infrared TV remote with various keys, such as a number pad and power button, displaying on the Wii U's touch screen. A TV button has been added below the lower right hand corner of the screen for easy acces to this feature. A small square mark below the left analog stick and directional pad is called the NFC Reader / Writer and will be used to scan various items that can be incorporated in various titles. Gyro and motion sensors are also in the tablet controller and will be used to track player movements.
The GamePad can also be used to browse the internet and subsequently share that content to the TV with just a flick of the wrist. This is expected to be used for sharing media, such as photos and videos, as well as other content on the home television. Although the touch screen will work with your hands, a stylus will still be included, demonstrated at the presentation as a tool for sketches.
Leaked photos two weeks ago suggested the change. However, while those photos were correct in the new button placements as well as the aesthetic stylings, the controller Nintendo showed was smaller and the screen was wider than before.
Below are three pictures comparing the controller shown at E3 2011, the leaked photo of the new controller and the one Nintendo showcased at the Direct Pre-E3 presentation.

New clock gives Tisbury Main Street new faceFrom now on, no one in downtown Vineyard Haven will have an excuse for being late. On Monday, a new clock, topped with the words "Time to Read," took its place in front of the Bunch of Grapes Bookstore, giving Main Street an attractive - and useful - focal point and meeting place. With clock in place, three generations of the Nelson family, all Bunch of Grapes employees, take time to enjoy it. From top, Jon Nelson, his son Jon, daughter Briana, and mother Ann.
The 30-inch dial features the Bunch of Grapes logo, created from artwork by Mr. Nelson. Knowing the dial lights up at night, he admitted he lingered after work on Monday night to check it when darkness fell. Mark MacDonald helps Jon Nelson set the new clock on its post.
His mother said they started planning the clock project several years ago and had already received permission from the selectmen, town boards, and committees. Ann Nelson said when she had the front of the bookstore building redone in the late 1990s, contractor Leo DeSorcy suggested running underground conduit pipes for electricity. |

Even if you're relatively secure about your health and waistline, it'd be impossible to completely miss the buzz around the major diet trends of recent years. We want to know what to eat and when to eat it, and we sometimes take it to extremes. In Japan, a fad called the "Morning Banana Diet" even set off a banana shortage — spiking banana prices by 20 percent in 2008.
But as we careen from one diet to the next, we've been making substantive changes in our eating habits, too. Over the past 30 years, Americans' per capita consumption of red meat fell by more than 20 lb. per year. We drink less than a third of the amount of whole milk we did in 1980 and almost twice the amount of skim milk. We eat less margarine, less lard, less shortening, and less sugar.
And we keep getting new advice. This week The New York Times reported on another new kind of diet: The Mediterranean Diet. It's designed to be rich in in olive oil, nuts, beans, fish, fruits and vegetables, and even red wine, and the diet is said to extend the lifespan of its adherents.
But is all this nutrition advice actually making us healthier? Michael Moss, author of "Salt Sugar Fat" is an investigative journalist whose new book focuses on the corporate side of what we eat.
According to Moss, one reason we seem to be losing the health battle amidst so much advice and information on the issue is economic disadvantage. Moss quotes Bob Drain, the inventor of Lunchables, in his book as saying "The people who make the processed food don't eat the processed food. And therein lies the class issue that really goes with the food industry in America."
Moss says of the executives in the processed food industry: "They know better, because salt, sugar and fat are the three pillars, the holy grail, of the processed food industry. The scientists are driving as hard as they can to reach those perfect amounts that will send us over the moon."
The Voting Rights Act (VRA) must be upheld by the supreme court: Discrimination is alive today unfortunately; Liberty and justice for all is openly sabotaged and the Supreme Court is inviting trouble of great magnitudnal proportions if it dares to fail its ultimate mandate: to uphold everyone's constitutional rights. The entire nation will speak against it because the Voting Rights Act (VRA) is not about political parties; the Voting Rights Act (VRA) is about individual rights protection. Bank on it! it is time to review; the Supreme Court's "entitlements" as, it is no longer acting as an unbiased institution and that, your magistrates , can be amended. get up and do your job or we will make it happen! count on it! Now Even if you are dumb enough to believe that all is OK with the world and there are no reasons to have the voting rights law on the books. Then why are the the parties at opposite end's on this ? Why are the Republicans in America trying to keep people from the poles ? Well I will tell you what I think. I think there may be a dozen or two, man and women in America that have the means to buy the power it wants to call all shots in this Country. The only way they can obtain this right now is get the people they went in office. To buy them so to say. But they know they can be stopped at the voting polls.They know the more that get out and vote there chances are reduced substantially. George Will knows this and should be ashamed. He say 47 years old. Is that old ? I don't think so. Look at the constitution, at that II Amendment a lot older right. SS, Medicare, still very new in the big picture. But look at who wants to change them. Not working men and women, no the big bosses. They do not like to mach payments that is what this is all about. They did not like it back in the 1930s and they do not like it now. So Americans do not be fooled and all of you older people that now have this little benefit fight like h--- to keep it just as it is. It just might be all there is between eating and striving !!
About 8 years ago I started converting to an organic, non-GMO largely (but not exclusively) vegetarian diet. My emphasis to use a cliché, is on whole foods. I use organic whole milk (stopped buying 1%), fresh vegetables, organic cheese, make my own bread or buy it fresh, and look for what's in season or what is freshest of what's available. I found I eat less because what I eat tastes better and satisfies more quickly. I lost about 10 lbs. and now weigh about the same as I did when I left college. Added to this is doing a lot of cycling. I take no medication and haven't been sick in many years. I think there's a lot to be said for eliminating as many toxins as possible from your diet.
I am undeniably healthier today. I have joined a gym and work out four times a week. I took up bike riding. My diet has more vegetables, almost no red meat and lots of vegetable protein. I have gone off my hypertension medication and lost weight. I'm healthier today when when I was twenty five (a very long time ago).
I thought I was healthy, being vegetarian and eating organic, but I felt terrible and had gained weight. I had to come to terms with the fact that I was still eating too many calories! This year I used an app to count my calories. That made all the difference. Still eating lots of veggies, but less carbs and sugar.
After hearing Mark Bittman's Ted Talk "What's wrong with what we eat" I totally changed the way I eat, it's just healthier, ethically, and environmentally sound to eat more vegetables and fruits and less meat and dairy.
In the last 12 months, my family has moved from Phoenix Arizona to Portland Oregon. Asthma symptoms that cost us more than $125.00 per month to treat, have vanished. The air in Portland is safer to breathe. Also, we have reduced out animal nutrition to under 10% of all our intake. We've got a real 'plant forward' approach to our meals and we've been feeling great. We eat animal foods in nearly anyway - we still emphasize great tasting meals, so we still have home-made fried chicken schnitzel every week. There has been an improvement in my blood pressure and sleep much better as well.
I drastically changed my eating habits last spring by eliminating dairy and sugar and lost 15 pounds right away. I couldn't maintain that lifestyle perfectly but I eat far less meat now, I have fruits and vegetables for lunch, very little sugar, no soda ever, very little dairy, some bread. I have so much more energy than I used to have and I feel so much better. A full-time teacher and mother to 2 small children, I thought I would be exhausted all the time but I am now able to work out at the gym at least three times a week and I have barely been sick this year.
I am healthier because I make an effort to find out what is truly healthy instead of following dieting trends. I became a vegetarian 11 years ago for health reasons but in the past year have come to believe this is actually not the healthiest diet. I found, through studying the research of doctors and nutritionists, that the Food Pyramid and now My Plate that are promoted by the USDA are promoting grains too much. As the reseacrh of doctor Robert Lustig shows, carbohydrates turn to sugar in our bodies and react in the same way as sweets. As a country we have essentially been on a sugar high since the USDA began it's campaign of getting us to eat more grains and thus more carbohydrates. As Walter Willet put it, "The thing to keep in mind about the USDA Pyramid is that it comes from the [U.S.] Department of Agriculture, the agency responsible for promoting American agriculture, not from agencies established to monitor and protect our health, like the Department of Health and Human Services, or the National Institutes of Health, or the Institute of Medicine." Willet's research at Harvard showed we should be eating more protein, vegetables, and fruit and less grains. However, when the USDA adopted the My Plate in place of the Food Pyramid based on the Willet's reasearch, they changed it to include more grains. I don't think they're helping the obesity problem in America. I think they're hurting it.
I think that it is amusing that years ago, when I was a vegetarian, no one was vegetarian. Now I eat more "paleo" style and everyone is a vegetarian. Our ideas of what "health" food is changes so often that people can't keep up. Does your guest have any thoughts on the Paleo/primal take on nutrition? (eating veggies/meats/fruits/limited dairy and avoiding grains/sugar/processed food).
Such an important topic. Thank you for covering this.
After trying so many vegetarian diets including 4 months on the China Study diet (where I couldn't stop eating, gained weight, felt weak and started losing my hair), I changed to the "cave man"/GAPS type diet. Ever since I started eating animal products, including all the fat I wanted, my health immediately improved. Now I never count calories & eat what I'd call Cave Man/Mediterranian, my health is great. All my hair grew back. I lost the pudgy bloated fat and I will never be a vegetarian again.
The key to my diet is avoidance of processed carbohydrates. No flours, no pasta, no bread, NO SUGAR, no cakes, cookies, chips... Only whole foods - tons of fruits& vegetables, moderate portions of grass fed meats -including butter and cheese, and plenty of omega 3 oils (nut and olive).
For me and my family, this is a great way to eat.

if you ever come to visit, let me know! i'll show ya around! :)
You know how Fantasy Football is boring and stupid and you don't really know how it works but you get the gist of it? Well, I'm officially starting the Fantasy Magic Mike League. I'm sure I wasn't the only one who wished they had switched out Tarzan for Chris Hemsworth. Right? Right. Create your…
A fantasy Magic Mike league? Don't mind if I do. Here we go…
- Aaron Johnson—Most of my friends only know his name because of me. "KICK-ASS?!" was usually the response I got when I explained to them who he is. Yes, that is kick-ass and he is beautiful when he isn't being made to look like a geeky high school student turned superhero. Can he dance? I have no idea, but really, who cares?
- Johnny Depp—This isn't his usual thing which I think is more of a reason he should be in Magic Mike! The whole Tim Burton match up is getting old. And we've already seen Matthew McConaughey play the creepy, old club owner/boss. Give someone else a chance. Dance, Depp, dance!
- Joe Manganiello—I know he is already in it but I demand more! MORE, MORE, MORE! My friends and I only refer to him as Alcide. I think that is partly because no one knows how to say his name and partly because he is smoking hot as a werewolf. Therefore, I demand more AND I demand he growl in the next movie. A lot.
- Joseph Gordon-Levitt— Who cares about Alex Pettyfer, really? Nobody. We all love Joseph Gordon- Levitt and I can't fathom anyone complaining about him getting dirty. It's time.
- James Franco— I'd watch James Franco golf. I hate golf. James Franco needs to embrace what he is good at and just look delicious. Don't speak, don't try to write awful books, just be there and maybe try to dance. Maybe.
Honorable Mentions: There is no doubt that Ryan Reynolds looks great without a shirt. I know that's all this movie is really good for but he just doesn't quite do it for me.
So there you have it. Now I need a cold shower.
The end of a few different relationships in my life has opened my eyes to the fact that it's much easier to see how different you are than someone once you've had a sufficient amount of distance from them.
So recently a close friend of mine was surprised about being "unemployed way longer than expected." As someone who has been unemployed on and off for about two years now, I understand how that works. Unfortunately, most people around me don't understand that job hunting is a process and usually a very long one. About 95% of it is a damn waiting game. That is the reality of it unless you happen to know someone who is helping you get the job because then the process is usually much quicker. I speak from experience.
You send in your information to about a million different places, you wait for a response of some sort, if you happen to get one, you wait for an interview, then you wait for a response from the interview or a second interview, you wait for results from drug tests and background checks, etc IF you even happen to get that far in the process. I went months without any sort of response from any of the places I was applying to and then BAM! I had about 5 or so interviews within a very short amount of time and ended up landing a temp job that only lasted a few weeks. Job hunting is bizarre that way. Now I am back to playing the waiting game and I really hate my opponent. But that's life, I suppose.
As an English major, I understand that the line is part of the character's personality and might only be a reflection of that rather than a reflection of the writers' thoughts on Muslims, but I still feel like there are a million other ways to go about showing a character's personality that are less offensive and essentially, more effective. Let's not even mention the fact that so far Terry's storyline is so out of place with the rest of the show and to be honest, it's quite stupid. It's definitely my least favorite storyline on the show right now and constantly makes me groan. Unless they find a way to spin it into something positive and/or tie it into the rest of the show, it really has no place or purpose.
This episode just aired tonight and there are already countless cries that the writers of True Blood should be fired and that they are no longer watching the show because of the character Patrick saying, "Suicide is for Muslims" while talking Terry out of killing himself.
But you're completely…

Read our article on NASA's mission to study Mars' loss of atmosphere, then click through for our rich media feature on Maven's instruments.
While policymakers seem perplexed over the nation's ambitions in human space exploration, a recent sounding of public sentiment suggests there is broad support for Mars as a destination but for reasons somewhat apart from those most often mentioned, such as ensuring U.S. leadership, high-tech spin-offs and creating a catalyst for youthful scientific literacy.
Americans are most intent on dispatching humans to Mars to gain a greater science-based understanding of the planet and to search for signs of life, according to the Mars Generation survey conducted Feb. 4-6.
More than 50% believe the objectives justify a human presence. Despite current economic ills, three in four Americans believe it is worth doubling NASA's budget to achieve them—once they were told the agency receives $17.7 billion annually, according to a "snapshot" of survey results. Explore Mars and Boeing sponsored the poll in a run-up to the Humans to Mars Summit, hosted by the George Washington University Space Policy Institute in early May.
"We certainly did not expect these sorts of numbers," said an elated Chris Carberry, executive director of Explore Mars, the Massachusetts pro-exploration non-profit and summit co-sponsor. "This is a wake-up call to our leaders that Americans are still explorers."
Phillips & Co. of Austin, Texas, conducted the email survey from a stratified random sample of 1,101 respondents 18 and older, selected to achieve a 95% confidence level with a plus/minus 3% error margin.
Only after greater awareness and the search for life does global leadership emerge as a justification in the survey, followed by a youthful boost to science, technology, engineering and math studies; permanent settlement of Mars; domestic job stimulus, and constructive international cooperation. Most do not care whether the U.S. leads a Mars exploration initiative as long as it participates. The majority believe a public/commercial partnership will be most effective in achieving the goal, as well as in sharing the spin-offs and reining in costs.
A March 4 release of the full report will offer a breakdown of the findings by region, level of education, income and ethnicity. However, seven in 10 Americans—men and women equally and African-Americans as much as whites—expressed confidence that humans are destined to walk on Mars by 2033, according to the initial results.
Storm clouds over U. S. space policy massed in December, when the National Research Council and the Space Foundation issued long-running studies that found little enthusiasm, even within the space community, for the U.S. civil space goals outlined by President Barack Obama three years ago. Those would launch astronauts to an asteroid by 2025 before aiming for Mars a decade later.

No-Bake Biscoff Cookies
Posted By Tracy On February 15, 2012 @ 8:00 am In desserts & sweets | 41 Comments
As I mentioned before, I'm taking a little vacation from blogging – don't worry, I'll be back! – but in the meantime, some of my favorite bloggers are stepping in to take the reins while I'm away. Today Michelle from Brown Eyed Baker is here, another fabulous baking blogger (though she cooks as well!) who I also have a lot in common with outside of blogging, as she mentions below. To me, her site is like a well-worn cookbook; a collection of delicious tried-and-true recipes from her kitchen to yours. Thank you Michelle for guest posting today!
Last March when I went on vacation Tracy was one of my wonderful food blogging friends who contributed a guest post to the site while I was away (remember her awesome Baked Doughnuts with Cinnamon Sugar?), so I of course jumped at the opportunity to do the same for her while she's enjoying some time away from Internet land. Aside from us both having rambunctious Golden Retriever children and loving football so much that we coordinated an all-girl food blogger fantasy football league this past season, I also feel a kinship with Tracy in that she has to deal with peanut and nut allergies. As someone who had to worry about that for five years, I know that it's definitely not any fun. As a result, I wanted to modify one of my favorite peanut butter recipes (No-Bake Chocolate, Peanut Butter & Oatmeal Cookies) so that Tracy could enjoy them too. I came up with No-Bake Biscoff Cookies using Biscoff spread – a new favorite of mine!
I seem to be a little late to the Biscoff party and was just introduced to it last month while touring the grand opening of a new local grocery store. They were offering it (as well as Nutella) along with Magic Pop, which they were making fresh in the store, and which were also new to me. They are a combination of a rice cake and a popcorn flavor, they are 15 calories and totally addictive, especially when slathered with Biscoff spread, as I soon found out. I've had a jar in the pantry ever since and was excited to use it in a new recipe, one that was free of any nuts and that I hope Tracy enjoys!
Yield: About 2 dozen cookies
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Add the sugar, milk, butter and salt to a 4-quart saucepan. Bring to a rolling boil and let boil, without stirring, for 1 full minute. Remove from heat. Stir in the Biscoff spread and vanilla until smooth, then fold in the oats. Drop by heaping tablespoons (or use a medium cookie scoop) onto wax paper-lined baking sheets. Let cool until set.

History of Vietnam | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The second Chinese domination marks a period when Vietnam fell into Chinese control for a second time, between the end of the Trưng Sisters and the start of the Anterior Lý Dynasty. The Trung sisters' independence movement had been a relatively brief interruption in the Bắc thuộc Chinese occupations of Vietnam which continued from 111 BCE to 938 CE. The late Han Dynasty of China strengthened its control over the region in 43 and Chinese governors ruled the area. Even when the Eastern Han Dynasty split into the Three Kingdoms in 220, Vietnam remained under the control of the Chinese state of Wu. The Chinese prefect of Jiaozhi Shi Xie ruled Vietnam as an autonomous warlord and was posthumously deified by later Vietnamese Emperors. Shi Xie was the leader of the elite ruling class of Han Chinese families who immigrated to Vietnam and played a major role inndeveloping Vietnam's culture.[1]
A female rebel named Triệu Thị Trinh briefly pushed the Chinese rulers out in 248, but was soon overthrown. Then Vietnam was under the Chinese Jin Dynasty and the first half of the Southern and Northern Dynasties. The domination ended by 544, when Lý Nam Đế came to power. Lý Nam Đế came from a family of Chinese descent, the ancestors of his family were Chinese who fled to Vietnam from Wang Mang's seizure of power during the interregnum between the Western and Eastern Han dynasties.[2]

- Khu Liên 137–138
- Chu Ðạt 156–160
- Lương Long 178–181
- Triệu Chỉ 299–319
- Lương Thạch 319–323
- Lý Trường Nhân and Lý Thúc Hiến 468–485
