Only because I have to write about it - The John Edwards trial fiasco
Writing about Edwards makes me feel as if I've pawed through a garbage dump. I always want to wash my hands afterward. I knew after 3 days of deliberations by the jury that they'd either be hung or acquit him. The fact that John Edwards was acquitted on only one of six counts of campaign finance fraud and conspiracy while the judge declared a mistrial on the five other charges speaks to the complexity of the case and the prosecution's failure to adequately explain Edwards' crimes to the jury. New York Times: "I did an awful, awful lot that was wrong," he said. "I am responsible. I don't have to go any further than the mirror. It's me and me alone." But he was not guilty of using campaign funds to hide those sins, he said. Certainly, Mr. Edwards has lost in the court of public opinion. But on Thursday he was vindicated, for the moment, by a jury of mostly working class North Carolinians who could not reach a.... (Read Full Article)

Does this addon track also leatherworking/tailoring etc crafting cooldowns? for example if one is a tailor one can craft imperial silk which one can do once per day. Similarly if one is leatherworker one can craft magnifience of scales.
This would be useful, as I always log to my alts and do these craftings to get all the possible recipes (you have a change to find a new recipe if you craft aforementioned items but they are on one day cooldown)

Comments about Pearl Izumi 60th Anniversary Bike Jersey - Men's - 2010 Closeout:
I ordered this shirt for my husband. We don't usually spend over $100 for a bike jersey, but we had a 20% off coupon and so decided to order it since it was a [$] jersey on sale. It is very sharp and the fabric is very soft and comfortable. The back button pockets are very nice The zipper went up fairly high on the neck and so it felt fairly restrictive around the neck. He said that the shirt felt ok, but was bothered by the zippered neck. When he tried unzipping it a little ways the zipper scratched his neck. The material felt fairly thick and seemed like it might get too hot on a hot summer day. His comment was that he may be willing to pay less than $50, but did not feel it was worth paying over $100 for it.

On Monday night, Bachelor Sean Lowe and fiancée Catherine Giudici enjoyed a quiet date night at the Ainsworth Park in New York City. The lovebirds talked quietly among themselves while sharing low-calorie dishes like chicken and salmon, and they were overheard discussing plans for a pre-wedding honeymoon.
Tuesday, the reality stars turned up at a Children's Miracle Network event at Frames Bowling Lounge in Manhattan, where they played a few games.

Looks like Catherine Giudici has fallen hard – for Sean Lowe's dogs!
Lowe, the former Bachelor and Dancing with the Stars contestant, shared an Instagram photo Monday of the ladies in his life catching some Zzz's.
"Tired girls," reads the caption, showing Giudici, boxer Lola and chocolate Labrador Ellie sprawled among some blankets.

After a hometown date from hell, The Bachelor's Sean Lowe withheld the rose from early frontrunner Desiree Hartsock.
The L.A.-based bridal stylist was devastated and the audience was stunned, but now the fan favorite will be the one handing out the flowers when The Bachelorette premieres May 27 on ABC.
Although she would not say if her TV journey ended in jewelry, Hartsock spoke to reporters this week about her suitors, strategies and surviving Sean.

It was a Bachelor party at the Thompson Beverly Hills hotel rooftop on Saturday.
Sean Lowe and fiancée Catherine Giudici bonded with former Bachelorette, Ali Fedotowsky, when the trio attended the fifth annual On the Go Mother's Day event.
At the pool party, Fedotowsky – who showed up sans new beau Kevin Manno – "grabbed Sean and Catherine and congratulated them on everything," an onlooker tells PEOPLE. "Sean spoke about his recent stint on Dancing with the Stars and he and Catherine joked about them having choreographed a wedding dance."

It's that eternal question that seems to plague every Bachelor and Bachelorette: Are their potential mates on the show there for "the right reasons?"
If this exclusive sneak peek at Desiree Hartsock as The Bachelorette is any indication, at least one of her suitors – a handsome fella named Brian – may not be.
In a teaser for the new season, Hartsock, 26, is faced with a solemn-looking Chris Harrison and a woman who proclaims, "I'm Brian's girlfriend."

There's an upside to Sean Lowe's elimination on Tuesday from Dancing with the Stars.
The former Bachelor star, 29, can finally give undivided attention to his fiancée, Catherine Giudici, who supported him all season as he competed for the mirrorball trophy with Peta Murgatroyd.
"I've gone from one show to the next for the past 12 or 14 months," Lowe told PEOPLE backstage after being sent home. "It's nice now. I'll have a little bit of a break and I can take a deep breath. [Catherine and I will] definitely take a vacation and relax. I'm definitely going to spend a lot of quality time with her because dancing consumed my life for the past few months, so it'll be nice to play with my dogs – the simple things."

Were Sean Lowe's fans able to save him from being eliminated on Tuesday night's Dancing with the Stars?
On Monday, the former Bachelor star failed to impress the judges with a pair of foot-fumbling routines that put him at the very bottom of the leader board with 42 points out of 60.
Soap star Ingo Rademacher trailed not too far behind with 48 points for the night.
Read on to find out if one of these handsome men were forced to say goodbye to the ballroom.

Three's a crowd?
Hardly for one competitor, who snagged the season's first perfect 30-point score on Dancing with the Stars on Monday.
The trio of 10s came appropriately enough on threesome night, when the stars each teamed up with two pros for the second round of dances.
The trio dances added complexity and sass – and at one point had one judge melting down in an angry clash with his colleagues.

Family Matters: A much needed vacation
10/04/2012 11:15
Everyone needs a break now and then. Here are some pointers on how to make your time away as stress-free as possible.
Photo: Wikicommons
Ben writes with the following question: "My wife and I always have the same argument this time of year. We have two young children who are going on school holidays soon and my annual leave is coming up as well. We want to take a week off and go on a holiday, but my wife prefers taking the children with us while I think that it's best to send them to their grandparents and go on a romantic vacation by ourselves. My wife normally wins these arguments, but I have to say that I'm not looking forward to those family holidays any longer. I find it's not relaxing and all about the children. I sometimes count the hours until I'm back at work. How can I make my wife listen to me for once so that maybe this year I'll feel like I really went out on vacation?"
Many of us find ourselves disagreeing with our partner about the nature of our shared vacation. Whether it has to do with location, type of vacation (i.e. extreme, relaxed, cultural) or even the length of it. We each have a picture of our ideal vacation painted in our heads. Unfortunately, our partner does not always share that same picture.
So what can we do in order to make our "time off" more enjoyable for all included?
What's your plan?
We might have a full picture of our desired vacation, but we have to make sure our partner gets a good description of it. If you know more or less what you want to do and where you want to go, do some research over the Internet. Then ask your partner to sit down with you for a few minutes while you show her pictures, prices and different itineraries for a possible vacation. This way you can have a more constructive discussion about your wishes and hers as well.
Divide and conquer.
If your partner insists on time off with the kids, try to examine some variations to that option. One idea is to have a shortened vacation with the kids and go on another short romantic getaway adjacent to that vacation or at some other time during the year. Another idea is to integrate some alone time into the family vacation. Get a babysitter during the evenings and go see a nice show with your partner. If the kids are old enough, find a resort that can occupy them while you and your partner relax together by the pool.
Get to the bottom of it.
Your partner clearly has an issue with leaving the kids behind, but what is the reason for that? One option is that she doesn't trust anyone else with taking care of them while you're gone and so she would insist on taking them wherever you go.
Another option is that she doesn't want to burden the grandparents for so many days or is too embarrassed to ask them.
A third option might be that she sees great importance in the family spending more time together, especially with the busy schedules you both have. Whatever the reason is, if you sit with your partner and determine why she insists on bringing the kids along, it may be easier for you both to come up with solutions that will make you both happy.
If your partner doesn't trust anyone else with caring for the children, offer to have a very short romantic get-away, even for just the one night. This may help her build trust in the ability of others to care for the children.
If she doesn't want to burden the grandparents, offer to have an open discussion with the grandparents and ask for their take on the matter. The grandparents might actually be more than excited to spend a few days with their loved grandchildren and that might ease your partner's mind.
If your partner wants the kids to join so that you'll all have some family quality time together, you might be able to persuade her to shorten the length of such vacation. You may also try to explain how important it is for you to have some time alone with her as well. This time off will allow you both to strengthen your relationship and gather energy to help you function better as a family during the year.
Decision time
Whatever you decide to do, it's important to acknowledge your needs as well as those of your partner. If you're going to mope throughout the shared vacation, no one is going to enjoy it. If you express your needs and help your partner express hers, there is a much better chance you can find some sort of middle ground and have a lovely memorable vacation.

CAG chastises WaPo's support of Campus Plan via strongly-worded letter
Posted by: Leigh Finnegan in News, Vox Populi, tags: 2010 Campus Plan, CAG, The Northwest Current, WaPoEarlier this week, when the Washington Post's editorial board got in the University's corner for the battle royale that is "D.C. vs. Georgetown," pretty much everybody anticipated that our friendly neighbors would be less than thrilled with this endorsement. Today, as reported by the Georgetown Dish, the Citizens Association of Georgetown published a very angry letter about the newspaper's assertions that the University's neighbors are attempting to stunt the intellectual and economic growth of the city.
"We strongly support planned and thoughtful growth," the letter states. "We strongly oppose, however, the objectionable results an expansion of more than 4,000 students in the past 10 years has had on the communities surrounding Georgetown University."
CAG goes on to defend its position that an Arlington satellite campus is a valid solution to the student overpopulation problem, and ends by foreseeing the impending doom of the District as a whole if Georgetown goes through with its plan.
"If Georgetown University is allowed to continue to expand irresponsibly, the danger exists that valued residential neighborhoods will become predominantly student housing,. Such a development would be a significant loss not only to the residents but also to the city as a whole."
But despite CAG's discontentment about the University's newfound support, other neighbors are, much to our pleasant surprise, not quite so upset about the University's expansion. In a letter submitted to the Northwest Current, a handful of residents of Georgetown, Burleith, Foxhall, and other surrounding areas came out in support of GU's recent efforts to make itself more neighborly. Citing the new trash patrols, police officers, and M Street Shuttle, the signers assert that Georgetown isn't the all-consuming entity that some of their neighbors think it is. They also mention that Georgetown students might actually have something to contribute to D.C. besides noise pollution and beer bottles:
"GU undergraduates and graduate students provide countless hours of volunteer public service to District residents each year at free health clinics, soup kitchens, and other social service agencies. Overall, Georgetown University's positive impact on our city is broad and deep. When the University prospers, it enhances all of our lives."
Aw stop, you're making us blush.
Full text of the letters, as published by Georgetown Dish, after the jump!

Different Browsers render a choice of either the title or the alt if both were used! We quickly dropped the title attribute for images and used the alt attibute only, which most browser interpret...and made sparing use of the title attribute to provide more info for text links only.
I concur that I have never seen search engine index title attributes BTW...

Ironically, I was accused of trying to pass myself off as an expert like "Jill Whalen of HighRankings.com". Ever heard of her?
What's especially funny is that on my site, I have an article called, "A Word About SEO" in which I state quite frankly that I provide only limited SEO services with my design services, that I don't have time to stay on top of SEO (which I describe as a constantly moving target), and recommending that agents also hire an SEO or SE marketing expert in addition to hiring me.
Another issue I was flamed over big time was that I said: I didn't have time to experiment with title attributes on my own site and don't care about SE leads because I get more leads than I have time to respond to. They are rarely from SEs or from the other forum, which I was also accused of "farming". I don't want SE leads because I'm expensive and most SE visitors are price-shopping. That was misinterpreted as "WELL, if she doesn't care about her own site, then she must not care about her clients's sites either." You probably can tell, Jill, from my frequent questions here on the forum, that I do care very much about my clients' sites.
And you are undoubtedly smart enough to realize that there are lots of other very effective ways to market a business besides the SEs. Besides my own situation, there's my husband's handmade guitar electronic site: virtually all his leads come from unsolicited favorable references to his products posted by his customers on guitar forums. He's months behind in filling orders, so, like me, he doesn't worry about SE marketing.
Obviously Jill, you couldn't have knowingly picked a better time to send out your newsletter!

Or confuse them more...
but still. It's very informative. Btw, the combo of alt and title attributes for linked images is done because browsers render these two attributes differently. I'd say, from my own site testing, that the vast majority of people don't use both attributes for linked images. However, for those who want to, repeating the same description is annoying as heck for screen reader software.
My own rule of thumb is to describe what the image is of, in the alt att. For the title att, describe where the image is linking to. Even better, offer a value proposition or benefit. Ex. "This links to our Products page where you'll also find sales and special offers."
It's otherwise known as the "scent of information" and persuasive design.

Suzanne! You bitch!
Posted 07 September 2006 - 06:46 PM
Exactly. Except in the face of linked images, which I think is tricky for people. I have a feeling many people think the alt attribute appears on mouseover and/or they're satisifed that whatever they put there will satisfy engines and anyone browsing with no images.
And yes, this could technically be enough.
But, the alt attribute for linked images is NOT what appears on mousever in Netscape, Opera or Firefox. The title attribute desc. is. Therefore, if that link goes somewhere exciting or useful, I think there's possible cause for adding it.
I do like title att's for navigation text links, in cases where the word is generic and kind of blah. For text links, such as embedded links, I haven't bothered since sometimes multiple words or a sentence is linked, like anchor text, and it's intended to be descriptive anyway.
But it's worth asking special needs persons who use screen readers how they feel about it. I hate making broad assumptions and causing them frustration.
Posted 07 September 2006 - 08:46 PM
My second most common use for the title attribute is to enter information I really do want to pop up in a tooltip, such as a warning that the "Link opens in a new window".

I have concerns about your approach to this because, as you have probably learnt, many SEOs are a bit on the dodgy side,a nd you not being an active part of this can protentially hurt you, and your business. For an SEO to do their job, they have to change web pages. Not maybe, have to. By letting clients go anywhere, you potentially are hurting yourself, by letting them go to any old hack. Why not outsource instead? By outsourcing, you are in control of the sort of advice users get, and can quality control it by only pertnering with people who prove trustworthy. Taking the service "inhouse", either by outsourcing or strongly recommending people you trust, is the best bet. This also helps with your own branding, because clients remember who helped them solve a problem. If you pointed them in the right direction for SEO, they are left with an even better experience of you, which can only be a positive. My (very offtopic) $0.02. |

I actually have a very good real estate Internet marketing/SEO specialist, Cherie Young, representing me as my account exec and business associate. Cherie is able to approach real estate agents with the whole package, including all her services plus mine, together or separately. And further down on the same page, I warn them about the SEO crooks.

After the iPod came the iPhone and it would seem that Japan is not able to match Apple's technology.

This doesnt quite involve bookmarks as such, but I was wondering is there a way to get recently opened sites (tabs) to show up when you load Chrome, rather than the "most visited" which is what shows currently.

That search must recommence after a mutually agreeable candidate withdrew from conducting the study, Smith said at an afternoon news conference outside the unions offices in downtown Washington.
We just recently found out . . . the leagues choice to run the population study that we had consented to recently withdrew and said that he wasnt the right person to get this done, Smith said. Im thrilled that the league has made a decision to move forward with the population study. Im a little frustrated that their selection has now pulled out so that we have to again re-up and try to get this done.

'Green growth is key'
"The Earth is now in danger. Global warming caused by greenhouse gases emitted during industrialization now poses a threat even to the very nexus of life, from water to energy to food resources." These are the words of President Lee Myung-bak in an exclusive article contributed to The Korea Times as a conclusion to the newspaper's 50-part series themed "Earth in Danger." "Accelerated climate change adds to the sharp increase of disasters and the ensuing damage, the rapid expansion of desertification and the reduction in biodiversity on a daily basis," he continued. "The conclusion I arrived at after much hard thought was that we should not pass on an Earth in danger to our posterity. Novel ways of thinking and behavior are needed. We should choose a new path that will ensure sustainable prosperity and safety for future generations," he said. President Lee agreed to make the contribution to the six-month series — it has been running in the Tuesday and Friday editions of The Korea Times for six months — to emphasize the importance of green growth. As part of efforts to realize his goals, the Presidential Committee on Green Growth was launched to facilitate collaboration in deliberating and coordinating various green growth policies across ministries and agencies at the government level. As such, the administration prepared the legal and institutional groundwork as well as the framework for putting green growth, the new paradigm for national progress, into practice. "First of all, green growth is changing the economic landscape." "Green industries are emerging as a new growth engine. Investments by private businesses in green industries, including new and renewable energy, have skyrocketed every year. As a consequence, the green industry is growing rapidly, and the export of green products is rising sharply," noted the President, who was long an executive in the engineering and construction industry. "An increasing number of businesses are putting green management into practice. The number of businesses that practice low carbon and environment- friendly management principles is on the rise. In businesses, advocating green management is now establishing itself as a marketing trend that is the most effective in appealing to consumers," he added in the article. "Green buildings and green transportation systems are also on the increase. The construction boom of energy-saving green buildings in both public and private sectors is spreading all over the nation. "An eco-friendly transition in the transportation system from expressways to high-speed railroads is taking place. The era of electric automobiles is also dawning," Lee explained. However, he said, no matter how successful Korea's transition to a green way of life is, green growth here alone does not mean much. |

I have wandered down to Louisiana numerous times and I can always feel an older, stronger energy to the land. It is a realm that is saturated with history and marinating in archaic mysteries. It's not just Voodoo that senses the powers at work in the swamp lands. Anyone sensitive to metaphysical energy can feel it hang in the air like the warm humidity of the environment. Each time that I visit, there is an energy to the place that reminds me of the heart of Africa. It is like recognizing an old friend from my days living in West Africa. It is a place that transfixes me, which is what keeps me coming back year after year. It you want to experience some powerful energy while taking in some of the oldest and most spectacular nature and history in America, you must visit Louisiana.

In March, 2012, a new Practice Note, Disclosure was applied in the Equity Division of the Supreme Court of New South Wales, including the Commercial List and Technology and Construction list in an attempt by the court to "deal with the burgeoning cost of litigation" according to McDougall J in Leighton International v Hodges; Theiss v Reinforced Earth [2012] NSWSC 448.
The Practice Note provides that the disclosure of documents is not to take place in relevant proceedings until evidence has been served, except in "exceptional circumstances" if it is necessary for the resolution of the "real issues in dispute" in the proceedings. This brings about practical changes, as parties will have to prepare and exchange their evidence as to the real issues early in the proceedings.
Parties will now have to prepare their evidence and provide their evidence without having reviewed and considered the opposition's documents. Disclosure will only be ordered if the parties are able to satisfy the "exceptional circumstances" required.
What constitutes 'exceptional circumstances' has yet to be clearly defined through case law, but has been summarised by McDougall J to be:
A) Not normal, or usual;
B) Something out of the ordinary;
C) Need not be unique;
D) Not "exceptional" at large but
E) "Exceptional" because they necessitate disclosure.
Parties seeking discovery need to make an application with a supporting affidavit including:
1) Reasons why disclosure is necessary for the resolution of real issues in dispute;
2) Specific documents or category of documents sought with express relevance to the proceedings, and
3) The likely cost of such disclosure referencing the number of documents, hours and resulting cost.
Disclosure includes the discovery process and subpoenas to produce. If disclosure is ordered, it will only happen after the parties have served their evidence which will narrow the issues in dispute and reduce the scope for disclosure. The aim is to make litigation less oppressive for the court, practitioners and clients by providing more focus on witness statements through limiting discovery.
It is hoped that an early exchange of evidence will lead to the court considering parties' evidence ahead of the trial and determine the relevance of discovery in relation to the real issues. Early exposure of the real issues in evidence is likely to lead to early settlement and greater attempts towards negotiation, mediation or arbitration which seeks to satisfy the overriding objective of the Civil Procedures Act 2005 and the Uniform Civil Procedures Rules "to facilitate the just, quick and cheap resolution of the real issues in dispute in any proceedings before the court".
Cases should be prepared faster and trial dates should come earlier if the change is embraced.

Here is a video of the best builds from the Valentine's Island….
It amazes both Dum and I the talent people have on Avatar Connection, the different ways we all look at things. Anan's build took my breath away with the poem she wrote and the poses where fun to play around with. To Sansa's "WIFE MURDER HUSBAND" sign that made me think, she must have been married to Dum. Boo's cube of contrast was really interesting and I loved walking through it. Everyone's builds were just fantastic and the colors of the textures on Valentine's island just gave me a warm glow. We do hope you have all enjoyed building your creation as much as Dum and I enjoyed flying around them.
Now there was no prize with this contest. As Dum put it there are no winners in LOVE and I said "no there are no winners in HATE" so no winners in the contest hehe.... plus it would of been so hard to pick one. Saying that this is Avatar Connection's first Valentine's day and we would like to archive some of what you guys have been doing to show future ACers where we have come from, and how creative the early members were and are. If anyone named in the video above would like to donate a copy of their Valentine build to our archive for future use in a archive showcase please contact Kuu or Dum.
We will be announcing the next themed building contest later this week, so if you built something for Valentine's keep hold of your plot.
Big hugs and thanks for all your creative efforts.

08/08/2012 – Exempt transaction. K Walsh and K Berg concur. |
Sent: Friday, August 03, 2012 1:08 PM
To: Janice Johnson
Cc: (Redacted)
Subject: HSR Inquiry Re Proposed Sale-Leaseback Transaction
Thank you for speaking with us by telephone a few moments ago. As promised, this email summarizes proposed transaction our clients are contemplating. We ask whether you concur with our assessment that the transaction as described is not reportable because it falls within the exemption set forth in 16 CFR 802.53(a). Of course, we recognize that your comments are based only on the information in this summary.
The acquired party, A, is a non-refiner distributor of motor fuel that also owns a number of real estate parcels improved with convenience stores and retail gasoline facilities. A supplies gasoline to these facilities, which are operated by independent dealers under lease and franchise agreements with A. A is controlled by a holding company, A1, and A1 in turn is owned and controlled by A2, a private equity firm.
The acquiring party, B, is a real estate investment firm that is owned and controlled by B1, a privately-held investment bank and capital management firm. B specializes in sale-leaseback transactions, and has entered into such transactions in a variety of different sectors. At least one other B sale-leaseback transaction involved multiple real estate parcels improved with convenience stores and retail gasoline facilities, and several others involved real estate parcels improved with grocery stores. These and other transactions by B have involved so-called "triple-net" leases in which the seller/lessee retains virtually all expenses, risks, and operational responsibilities with respect to the leased properties. Under the terms of the leases, B receives lease payments and is entitled to receive lessee financial information, but B does not play, and does not have the right, contractual or otherwise, to play an active role in the governance or management of the lessee or the businesses operated at the leased properties.
Based on our analysis, the parties meet applicable size-of-party tests and the transaction meets the size-of transaction test.
Under the proposed transaction, A would sell to one or more special-purpose entities created by and controlled by B a total of 112 real estate parcels improved with convenience store/retail gasoline facilities for the sum of $300 million. B would then lease the properties back to A pursuant to one or more "triple-net" master leases in which A would retain responsibility for all costs related to taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs and replacements, and all environmental matters. A, as lessee, would have substantial autonomy to alter and improve the properties. As with its other transactions, B would be entitled to receive financial information but would have no right of control or active participation in the business of A or in the convenience store/retail gasoline businesses located at the subject properties. The initial term of the master lease(s) would be 20 years, and A would have the right to renew the lease(s) for up to five (5) subsequent five (5) year terms. Al would unconditionally guarantee A's obligations under the leases. The various franchise agreements in place between A and its independent dealers would remain in place and would not be affected by the transaction. Thus, A would be able to maintain the dealer leases in place and supply the facilities for up to 45 years.
Our reading of the HSR statute, regulations and informal opinions leads us to conclude that the intended transaction falls within the exemption to reportability set forth in 802.63(a). We read that exemption as applying in general to bona fide sale-leaseback transactions not involving a change in beneficial ownership. Our understanding is that the FTC treats sale-leaseback transactions as exempt where an acquiring person takes title to property and then leases the property back to the seller in a bona fide transaction, engages in such sale-leaseback transactions in the ordinary course of its business, and does not compete with the person to whom the property is leased. In this instance, B would take title to the properties and lease them back to A in a bona fide transaction, and it would do so as part of the ordinary course of its sale-leaseback business. Neither B nor B1 compete in A's line of business or operate businesses that compete in A's line of business, and neither will have any ownership or control of A's business or the businesses conducted at the leased properties. Furthermore, based on the indicia to which the FTC and HSR inquirors have looked in the past, A would remain the beneficial owner of the properties. Specifically: A would retain control of the properties and the businesses thereon; A would continue to bear the risk, expenses and responsibilities associated with the properties; and the term of the master lease(s) would extend for 20 to 45 years, with Al guaranteeing A's lease obligations. With no transfer of beneficial ownership from A to B in the transaction, there should be no need for HSR filings.
Please let us know if we can provide other information that may help you decide whether you concur with our assessment that the proposed transaction is not reportable under the exemption set forth in 16 CFR 802.63(a). If you have doubts or disagree with our conclusion, of course please let us know why so that we may respond appropriately. Thank you again for your time and review of this inquiry. Feel free to contact us by reply email or by calling at my number shown below. Thank you in advance for your time and review of this inquiry.

South Florida will soon get its largest solar array, 4,620 panels installed on the roof of a new IKEA store set to open in the Miami area next summer.
You are here
SEIA is the solar energy industry's go-to source for the latest coverage on solar power, including U.S. and international policy, research and polls, business and financing trends, and more. Our staff strives to support the media covering solar energy issues and guide our members on effective media outreach with clear statements, background materials, news and multimedia resources.
SEIA is committed to informing policymakers, the media, and the American public about the benefits of solar energy for today's communities, our economy, and our country.
Learn more from our statements and industry news below.
SEIA Vows to Continue Efforts to Educate ACC About 'Value' of Solar
WASHINGTON, DC - Rhone Resch, president and CEO of the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), today released the following statement after the Arizona Corporation Commission (ACC) voted to impose new fees on solar customers statewide:
"While we applaud the ACC's decision to keep net energy metering in place – and appreciate the Commission's last-minute efforts to find a middle ground when it comes to new fees on solar customers – we are deeply troubled by today's precedent-setting action.
Rooftop Solar Could Generate Jobs
Los Angeles County could create tens of thousands of new jobs and reduce global-warming-causing carbon emissions if solar-voltaic panels are installed on just 5% of available rooftops, says a just-issued report.
SEIA Emphasizes Importance of Commence Construction at MDV SEIA Conference
MDV-SEIA's Solar Focus Conference gathered more than 300 solar energy leaders and stakeholders in D.C., with a theme of The Sun Rises in the East: The Growth of East Coast Distributed Solar.
Solar Power Begins to Shine as Environmental Benefits Pay Off
Amid polemics over rising electricity prices in Europe and the level of green energy subsidies in various countries, it is easy to lose sight of the fact that the growth in clean-energy generation is a huge success story.

Good afternoon everyone. Welcome to Chicago. Welcome to SPI 2013. And welcome to the Big Leagues.
New Study: Expanded Solar Development Would Save North Carolina Ratepayers $26 M Annually
WASHINGTON, DC – A study released today shows ratepayers in North Carolina could see $26 million in energy savings annually if the state were to add 400 megawatts (MW) of wholesale solar and 100 MW of distributed solar generation.
New California Law Will Help Expand Solar Deployment
WASHINGTON, D.C. – SEIA President and CEO Rhone Resch released the following statement today after California Gov. Jerry Brown signed landmark energy legislation AB 327 into law:
SEIA Says New Guidebook on Net Metering Will Benefit Consumers
WASHINGTON, D.C. – A key new report offering a standardized approach to determining the benefits and costs of distributed generation (DG) was released today by the Interstate Renewable Energy Council, Inc. (IREC). After reviewing the report, SEIA Sr. Vice President Carrie Cullen Hitt issued the following statement:
New Apple Plant Will Run Entirely On Clean Energy
This week Apple announced its plans to open a new factory in Mesa, Arizona — a facility that "will run on 100 percent renewable energy from day one." The move will bring a manufacturing boost to the state, creating 2,000 new jobs, all without requiring additional energy from Mesa.
What Utility Planners Need to Know About Solar
The road to bringing more distributed solar into the utility resource mix runs through long-term planners.
No Solar Strangelove: Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Join SEIA
At Solar Power International in Chicago, you may have noticed that the solar industry consists of an amazing array of types and sizes of companies. At Solar Marketing Group, I am lucky to get to work with companies that run the gamut of the solar space and while these companies have their own unique needs, one thread connects us all: We all benefit from growing the amount of solar installed. The industry's growth comes from a lot of different things, but all of these factors can be spurred or thwarted by political action (or inaction, as the case may be).
Startup Social Entrepreneurs Help Finance Solar Power Social Enterprises
The mindbogglingly large number of people in the world–1.3 billion–without access to electricity is providing a growing market opportunity for a lot of social entrepreneurs. I just wrote about one, Nokero, selling solar-powered light bulbs.
New Bill Proposes US Utilities Purchase 25% of Energy from Renewables
US Senator for Colorado, Mark Udall and his cousin, Tom Udall, senator for New Mexico have teamed up to introduce legislation that would set renewable energy targets for utilities.
The legislation introduces the first national threshold, for utilities to purchase 25% of their energy from renewable resources by 2025.
Washington, D.C. – The countdown has begun. In just 10 days, Solar Power International 2013 (SPI '13), North America's premier business-to-business event for professionals in solar energy, will provide a platform for discussing a wide variety of trends, new product introductions and critically important issues.
With no end in sight to the federal government shutdown – and worries mounting by the minute about its impact on the U.S. economy – what can the private sector do to help spur job creation and economic growth in the future? Here's one good idea: The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) has just released a comprehensive new report outlining ways to create 50,250 new American jobs and save more than $61 billion in future energy costs by expanding the use of innovative and cost-effective solar heating and cooling (SHC) systems across the nation.
As disappointed as some local fans of the Solar Decathlon may be, it turns out this might have been a good year for the event to move out of Washington, D.C. While budget dispute clouds loom over the federal government and the Capitol, the biannual Department of Energy event is casting its own sunshine in Irvine, California.
In China, 2013 is the year of the snake. But here in the United States, this may well go down as the year of the sun. A recent market analysis by GTM Research shows the U.S. market installed 832 megawatts (MW) of new photovoltaic (PV) installations in the second quarter of this year – a whopping 15 percent increase over the first three months of 2013.
Is that a light at the end of the tunnel?
An industry proposal aimed at ending a long-running solar trade dispute between the United States and China is gaining support among key lawmakers at both the state and federal levels, including the chairmen of the U.S. Senate Finance and Budget committees.
Trade disputes often have a nasty way of becoming trade wars.
On average, the sun shines in Sacramento, California, 265 days a year. Well, it looks like even more clear skies and sunny days ahead as the state wrapped up its legislative session on a high note.
At a time of heightened tensions in the Middle East – coupled with rising gasoline prices across the United States – there is finally some good news on the energy front. America's solar energy industry is currently on pace to achieve a record-shattering year.
President Obama's recent decision to install solar panels atop the White House is just the latest example of his strong commitment to U.S. leadership in solar energy and the jobs it will create here at home.
The member companies of the Solar Energy Industries Association strongly share that commitment. Covering every aspect of the solar pipeline, they employ more than 120,000 Americans – providing savings for homeowners, power for our military and a cleaner world for future generations.
All across the United States, rooftop solar panels are popping up on homes, businesses and schools like mushrooms in a forest, and utility-scale solar projects are bringing huge amounts of clean energy into our communities. Why? Well, among other things, consumer choice in America is something that we all hold very sacred.

Subject: [MIWASHTE] Collection at Bentley
Hi Al,
I know there is a black book that lists what is in the particular boxes of
the Ann Arbor DAR collection at the Bentley, and it says cemetery rrecords, but
I don't think it identifies them as Washtenaw Co cemeteries. . The one of
most interest to Washtenaw is Box 5. In it were 3 folders in the box
particular to Manchester interest, but the box also contains other cemeteries in
Washtenaw besides Oak Grove and Reynold's Corner, both in Manchester township.
Each page of a cemetery record has actually 3 tombstone readings so if the
folder on a particular cemetery contains 10 pages there is probably info
about 30 tombstones. Oak Grove Manchester had 82 pages, Reynold's Corner had 62
pages I believe. I am pretty sure Vermont Cemetery Saline was there, I can't
remember what others, I know there were other cemeteries. They would be
very good for the cemetery tombstone reading people. As I said earlier, I found
info in that box on tombstones in Oak Grove Manchester that is now worn off
of the tombstones and is no longer readable.
Any photos of any pages would be wonderful. They are all loose pages, so
you won't have a problem trying to keep a book open. From what I remember the
DAR gleaned the info from family history and bibles tombstone reading etc I
would guess maybe in the 1940's but not real sure of the date.
When I get the Oak Grove copies that I asked for, I am going to use them
along with other sources I have available, including the first 2 original
cemetery books for Oak Grove Manchester, to update the tombstone reading the
society did back years ago, probably in the late 1980's. When I am finished, we
will know probably 99% of the people buried in Oak Grove Manchester even if
they don't have a tombstone. I have also asked for copies of the Reynold's
Corner Cemetery also Manchester, when I get that list done, we will know almost
all who are there, even if they no longer have or never had a tombstone. I
hope to have this project done this summer.
Since the Genealogical Society of Washtenaw Co web site has not been updated
as far as cemeteries in a number of years, someone suggested I post the
results on GEBWEB, and I will do under Washtenaw Co. I will also make available
the results in the Manchester Historical Room at the Manchester District
Library and I can do a PDF or WORD document if someone would like to have it.

Got Bed Bugs? Bedbugger Forums » Detection / Identification of bed bugs
Suspicious of Bed Bugs, but no proof yet...
(3 posts)-
I have an interesting situation, I hope some of you might be able to help with. Basically my gf went to stay with a friend over Christmas break to see her friends new kid. Apparently last week her friend found out they had Bed Bugs and confirmed that the PCO killed about 4 or 5. So I'm hoping that means that their infestation was small.
Now the reason we're suspicious here is because she left her suitcase in her friends bedroom for about a day (over two months ago). And now she is complaining that she has bites, however when I look at them they just look like a stress rash (which she tends to get because she has a bad anxiety problem). I didn't see any individual marks that look like bites. We also have spiders in our rafters around the house and they bite us occasionally.
Despite all this I still want to take precautions and at least catch one of these things, so I don't cause a panic by telling our landlord about it, if it is indeed a false alarm. Right now we have our metal framed futon (which we sleep on), pulled away from the wall and all furniture/tables/night stand/etc, we did a thorough sweep of the mattress pad (which fortunately doesn't include a box spring), isolated it with a mattress cover (the zipper is nice and tight, so nothing is sneaking through that). Then we washed and dried all of our bedding. Finally we put the legs of the bed in four shatter proof plastic cups, filled the cups about two inches deep with 1/2 cooking oil, and half 71% Alcohol (didn't have any 99% around), and greased the already slippery metal legs with Vaseline. We also just ordered 4 climbup traps, which we will replace the cups with when they arrive
So my question is, if we don't see any dead or caught bugs in these cups (or climbups) within say two weeks, should we feel comfortable, and consider this a false alarm? Or should we still tell our landlord and at least try to get him to pay for one of those BB sniffing dogs? Oh we also have four cats, and they tend to sleep on the bed. BB's don't ride around on small animals like fleas do they? That would make it really hard to isolate things if that were the case. Also I know that BB's will feed on other animals, but wouldn't they try to go for one of us first, and in the process get stuck in our trap?
Thanks very much for any help you guys can offer. This is something I want to find out about asap, before we take the next steps and start bagging/washing/isolating everything.
I've been pouring over this site since Monday and have found a wealth of great advice, so I trust you guys will have some excellent thought for us as well.
Hi. Call a pro and get him to inspect. It will be the best money you've ever spent. $300 for peace of mind. Don't treat for bed bugs until you are SURE you have them. It's a huge pain in the butt, as I'm sure you've surmised by reading this blog. I started getting "bites" in 2007 and called a PCO called Pest Away. They asked me a few questions, determined I had bed bugs, sold me a bunch of bug spray, had me bag up everything in my bedroom, and sprayed my apartment. They didn't inspect before spraying. I'd never actually seen a bug, but I couldn't figure out where else I'd be getting "bites" on my chest and back in the winter. The "bites" kept coming back, however. I sprayed Bedlam all over my bed on occasion throughout 2007, 2008, 2009. I had another PCO come and spray five times in winter 2008-2009. And I had "bites" again this year. I finally called John Furman of Boot a Pest (Killer Queen on bedbugger) and he inspected. The best $300 I ever spent. After years of being absolutely positive that I had bed bugs, I've learned that I never had them. They would have left traces - fecal stains. John found no traces. He said they probably would have bitten exposed skin instead of crawling under my t-shirt to bite my back and chest. John suggested I see a dermatologist. He also mentioned that Victoria Secret is being sued by women who got hives from formaldehyde in their bras. I stopped wearing my Victoria Secret bras and I've been "bite/hive" free for a week.
PCOs should make it their policy to inspect before spraying pesticide all over someone's apartment. I'm sure there are a lot of people like me who make a false diagnosis.
Hey False Alarm,
Good news for some to hear. Thank you! I'm glad I was able to help .... I hope that was it .. and you can move on ... Best of luck to you! KQ
