As a Citizens Bank customer, you'll receive great features with your green savings account such as:
What is a Checking Account? A checking account is an account where funds are easily available through different channels (checks, ATM, online bill pay). Because money is available on demand these accounts are also referred to as demand accounts or demand deposit accounts.
What is a Savings Account?Savings accounts are variable APY accounts that pay interest and are often used in conjunction with a checking account to manage and grow your money. These accounts let customers set aside a portion of their money to grow safely over time.
What is a Money Market Account? A money market account is a variable APY account similar to a savings account which typically earns a higher interest rate compared to savings for customers who do not need frequent access to their funds. Typically checks can be written; however check and ATM access varies by account.
What is a Certificate of Deposit?CDs are similar to savings accounts but they are set to a fixed term (usually ranging from three months to five years), and a fixed interest rate. It is expected that a CD be held to the end of the term, at which time the money may be withdrawn with the accrued interest. Early withdrawals may result in a fee, so ensure you will not need access to these funds for the term of the account before opening your CD.
What is a debit card? A debit card (also known as a bank card or check card) is an alternative payment method to cash when making purchases. Similar to using cash, funds are immediately withdrawn from your account.
What is APY? Annual Percentage Yield (APY) expresses an annual rate of return taking into account the effect of compounding.
What is compound interest? Compound interest is the concept of adding accumulated interest back to the principal, so that interest is earned on interest from that moment on.
What is interest rate? Interest rate is the rate at which a financial institution agrees to pay you back for holding your money.

The new toy. That's Arts office for Rocky Mountain AG just above the nose, what a great couch.
Colorado in February at 13,500ft.
Well the big snow storm in Colorado didn't get me and that's a good omen. You see, I sold my Zenith 701 to a friend so he could cross off another item on his bucket list. Then I noticed I had nothing to fly, big problem. So I started looking for a really good deal and I think I found one. I like Pacers and have a lot of good stuff for them (you know the things your wife calls JUNK). So I went looking for a Pacer. They are a good buy but I was looking to steal something, so no luck in the Pacer department. But The TriPacer opportunities are everywhere. I found a very clean 1957 PA-22-160 with 1943hr on it, all original. No one has messed with it. It even had a Loran in it. Anybody want a good deal on a Loran? I made the deal and let's just say I stole it including a fresh annual.
So with a big storm coming to the Denver area and the plane in Colorado Springs I got on a commercial flight with my pockets full of hundred dollar bill. Made the deal on Wednesday the 1st and got ready to depart on Thursday morning at dawn. Well I only got a 150 miles and the ceiling went to the ground with snow. So I parked it in the little town of Monte Vista Colorado "KMVI". You know, I had never landed a TriPacer in snow before, what fun. So with the visibility down to less than 300FT and me being from California the FBO owner Art Jones of Rocky Mountain AG must of felt sorry for me and let me sleep on the office couch for the next two days. Can't say enough about his hospitality. He let me use his pet truck "Thumper" to go to town and gave me the run of the place. He even had an open hanger and let me put my new toy out of the weather for the two days I was there. If any of you guys go that way stop at his place to buy gas, he's the best. Don't stop at Alamosa 12-miles south go to Monte Vista and say hi to Art. His gas prices are better than Alamosa anyway.
After two days on the sofa the clouds lifted enough for me to get going. So I took it to 13,500 to get out of the valley and on my way to Gallup New Mexico. Then on to Lake Havasu Arizona "KHII" for fuel and lunch. If you're down that way the FBO is great, fuel prices are very good and Waldo's restaurant is wonderful. The last leg on in to Kern Valley Airport was normal.
Now the work begins, Tail wheel, Wing tips, vortex generators, bush wheels, etc.
What a great Trip.

I have a lot of other books in the queue, of course, but I seem to have started reading Carrie Vaughn's Kitty Norville series and I made a deal with myself that I would write it up no more than three books at a time, to keep from having everything completely blur together.
I knew very little about this when I started; I think I'd picked the first book up very cheap and knew it was popular and urban fantasy of the first-person, supernatural creature + romance variety. It caught my eye when I was scrolling my ereader looking for inspiration, and then I was off.
The first is Kitty and the Midnight Hour, and it's actually considerably different than I expected. Yes, it's first-person and it's supernatural creatures living parallel lives in modern society. But the thing with werewolves is that I expect a lot of focus on the tropes of pack dominance and hierarchy, especially with regard to mating, in a fantasy/id-tastic/eroticized way. But Midnight Hour takes these elements and positions them as, at best, raising genuine questions about how werewolves live in a human society, and at worst, the mechanisms for abuse. In fact, the whole book is about Kitty learning to reclaim agency as a survivor of abuse of various kinds. This made it more emotionally tough going than I expected at times, but was also a welcome surprise.
The next book, Kitty Goes to Washington, deals with fallout from Kitty coming out as a werewolf on her radio show in the last book, as she's subpoenaed by the Senate. Kitty meets other groups of weres and vampires and sees different ways of organizing and living, which is clearly going to be a major concern of the books. And the upshot is that magic in the form of supernatural creatures comes out in a big way, which is also a thing I enjoy exploring in these kinds of worlds.
The third book, Kitty Takes a Holiday, struck me as somewhat less strong, for two reasons. First, to the extent these books try to do mystery elements, they aren't particularly successful; in both this book and the first I spotted those responsible for various acts almost immediately. Second, this book shakes up the personal side of Kitty's life in a way I didn't find very convincing; it may be that I'm not supposed to be convinced in the long-term, so we'll see how that plays out. It does feature further conflicts as supernatural society and ordinary law enforcement interact, however, and like the others, was a fast and entertaining read.
There, now I can dive into the next one . . .
Finally for tonight, an entry written many moons ago and just unearthed; it appears to be complete, and I have no idea why I haven't posted it before.
A while ago I watched Stargate Atlantis. In many ways it was not a very good show, but I watched 99% of it [*] because it was very undemanding material to stitch to, that is, I could listen and only need to look up occasionally.
[*] I skipped the season five clip show because, first, clip show, and second, its frame story sounded guaranteed to drive me up a wall.
I got into watching the show to provide context for fanfic that I more-or-less-randomly started reading, which also led me to Martha Wells' two tie-in novels, Stargate Atlantis: Reliquary and Stargate Atlantis: Entanglement. These were terrific: the kind of exciting SFnal explorations that the show mostly did not manage on its own. Partly this is of course the greater scope a book allows, with no special effects budget or time limit, but also it's a willingness to be more complicated and thorough that the show didn't achieve even in multi-episode arcs. If you liked the idea of the show and the characters when they weren't suffering from plot-induced stupidity, then it's worth checking these out.
Since those were quick, one more from the Discworld re-read backlog, Thud!.
Unfortunately I think this is the beginning of the end for the Watch books. I am definitely over Vimes and his primal anger/inner policeman issues, and also I can't believe I didn't realize the first time through the awful abuse of power represented by his heartwarming "home at 6:00 to read to Young Sam at any cost" (Carrot is the one to stop traffic, but Vimes doesn't tell Carrot to desist or not to do it again). And while there are some welcome things here about social issues (Detritus gets some good moments that really show how he has changed), there are also some things that feel either very tired and repetitive (non-assimilating dwarves are still a problem, again? With veils, even?) or just awful (you can tell female dwarves, no matter how they choose to present gender, because they're the ones who coo over babies? Excuse me?).
The end scene is a still powerful image but it's not sufficient, either for the in-story effects or for my overall enjoyment of the book.
Picking up the logging of the Discworld re-read after a long delay, with two quick reports.
A Hat Full of Sky: I liked this more than I remembered or expected, which was a lovely surprise; this is getting close to the end, and I was worried about the downward slide. The external threat here is so tense, and all the pre-adolescent stuff feels real and uncomfortable the way Tiffany's relationship with Granny Aching did in the first book. There was more Granny Weatherwax than I remembered, too, and I love their interactions. And I will always laugh at Rob Anyway holding up a scrap of paper with "PLN" written on it and declaring that now they have a plan.
Just one spoiler comment, which hardly seems worth going behind the jump, so ROT-13 (see sidebar): gur uvire pbagvahrf Gvssnal'f geraq bs haqrefgnaqvat bccbaragf orsber qrnyvat jvgu gurz.
Going Postal: Still love it.
Okay, okay, that's not all there is to say: one of these days I will read The Victorian Internet: The Remarkable Story of the Telegraph and the Nineteenth Century's On-line Pioneers and doubtless want to re-read Going Postal yet again; and the ending is an interesting data point regarding Discworld's attitudes towards elites and power. Aaand . . . that's it.
The urban fantasy book I needed a palate cleanser before reading was Broken Homes, the next book in Ben Aaronovitch's Rivers of London series. It won't be out in the U.S. until February 2014, but I bought a U.K. edition.
Plot is not the strong point of these, but this one's seemed a little shaggier to me than usual—slower to develop, only loosely fitting into the shape of the book, and maybe relying a bit much on Peter being an idiot. However, there's good stuff with the Rivers, and further developments that support my thesis that the long game of the series is magic coming back and coming out, and Peter is always fun to spend time with.
All that said, on the whole I find myself extremely apprehensive over the direction of the series, to the point where I think I will have Chad read the next one first and tell me if I should read it. Fortunately for the rest of you, this reaction is fairly personal, more about my emotional attachments than an objective assessment of quality. Unfortunately for the rest of you, you'll have to read the book to know what I'm talking about, because there's really nothing else I can say about it here. Sorry.
After the Dresden Files, I needed a palate cleanser before I went on to another urban fantasy book, so I returned to the world's slowest Donald E. Westlake Memorial Dortmunder Re-Read. Why Me? is the one where Dortmunder accidentally steals a ruby ring that gets everyone, and I do mean everyone, out for his blood.
This is the book that introduces Stoon—though, as I recall, we never actually meet Stoon, he's always the hope that falls through and requires Dortmunder to deal with Arnie. It has more slurs than usual thanks to the POV of Chief Inspector Mologna, another to-be-recurring character. It's also the book with Dortmunder and Kelp's phone adventures, by which I mean landline because it was written in the early 1980s. Oh, and it has one of the very few queer characters in any Dortmunder book—at least, right now I can't think of any others—in Mologna's gay assistant, who is stereotypically flamboyant but (1) highly competent and (2) possibly playing up the swish to get on people's nerves.
Anyway, great fun, well into the stride of the series, and just what I needed.
I am skipping past the rest of the Discworld re-read (and a bunch of other things) to get to some books while they are still reasonably fresh. First up is my marathon Dresden Files read: from the second book, Fool Moon, all the way to the most recent, Cold Days.
Some of you are now giving your screens weird looks and asking, "Kate, why on Earth did you read all of these? They are so not your thing." I know this because Chad did the exact same thing, only in person. All I can say is, beware of reading fanfic for sources you haven't read/watched! You'd think I'd have known better after I ended up watching all but one episode of Stargate Atlantis, but then I managed to avoid watching any of Merlin and Teen Wolf, so I thought I was safe. . . . until I found myself wanting some context for the stories I was reading, and a lot of my friends read them so I'd be able to participate in those conversations, and they didn't sound very demanding so they'd probably go fast . . .
Anyway. For a while this worked reasonably well. I was bulling through them at high speed, so I can't even match events to titles for most of them. I do remember that Fool Moon is pretty bad, with a distinct air of "I have suffered for my research into every single possible kind of werewolf, and now so must you." But Harry's horrible "don't tell women potentially life-saving information because chivalry!" thing does go away pretty early—hilariously, his subconscious literally manifests to yell at him about it—and he does grow up some in other ways, too (I can't remember which book it is, but there's a bit where he thinks that once he would have tried to blow a door up, and now he's going to use magic to remove its hinges). While I was aware that there were some unpleasant things going on, I could mostly skate over them while watching magical pyrotechnics and Harry getting the shit beat out of him and admiring Harry's friends and acquaintances (who generally deserve a better protagonist than him).
And then Changes happened, and all the things I was skating over and had been glad to leave behind came crashing down, only worse. Women as a fuel for Harry's manpain; Harry's impulsiveness and self-destructiveness; and all the Madonna/whore, sex-negative, Puritan rape culture stuff the books have going (Exhibit A: the White Court). Ghost Story was okay, kind of disjointed and rather anti-climatic in some senses, but Cold Days was a ball of do-not-want. It was all the things I did not like about Changes, plus way, way too much of Harry finding it so difficult not to rape and murder all the time—I wanted to reach through the page and say, "Here, have your goddamn cookie, already"—and then an ending that promises even more ickiness in store next time.
So if you're in the mood for some fast-paced snarky urban fantasy, well, you should read Midnight Riot. But if you must read these, stop with whatever book is before Changes. Me, I will probably rely on other people's reports to see what happens; I suppose it's possible Butcher might get out of the current situation in some interesting way, but then again, the endgame of the series is apparently "a 3-book apocalyptic trilogy", and I'm not sure I want to see Harry in an apocalypse. On the other hand, I'd originally misread that as post-apocalyptic, which I definitely do not want, so it could be worse.
I re-read Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird late last year, because I'd agreed to beta-read a Yuletide fanfic story based on it. I ended up more cheerleading the resulting story than anything, but I was glad of the opportunity to revisit a book I'd not read since high school.
It's an incredibly tense book and the narrative voice is great. I had completely failed to remember (or, more likely, recognize) how central is Scout's changing conceptions of femininity and relationships with women. I had also failed to recognize, because I neither had the tools to do so nor was given them in school, the way that its portrayal of racism is incredibly limited and, as a result, misleading and harmful.
Which is half of the reason I'm writing about it tonight, here past midnight when I should be asleep. The other half is that despite knowing what happens, somehow I got hopeful at a certain point in the book as I was swept along, and it was like running into a brick wall when my hopes were dashed. And I think the truest demonstration of Mockingbird's limitations is that I feel the same kind of crushing sadness in response to today's news (well, yesterday's, now) as I did in reading the book. Only, of course, much worse.
Nb.: I do not have the emotional resources to engage in education in the comments; please consult your search engine of choice if you feel the need.
And now on the Discworld re-read, Monstrous Regiment, which needs a spoiler cut; my prior booklog entry is spoiler-free.
( Read more )
Next up in the Discworld re-read, some short comments about books that already have their own entries.
The Truth: I really like the Ankh-Morpork books about industrialization. I find William and Sacharissa entirely pro forma as a romance but I like them and their changes a lot as individuals. And I find the New Firm kind of boring but I like the point made about them in Becca's booklog post (spoilers).
Thief of Time: Pretty much exactly what Becca says (spoilers), with a side of Mrs War/War being another example of the tedious, loathsome "henpecked husband" pattern.
The Last Hero: I can't believe I didn't realize earlier that it's about fake London having to rescue fake China from its own emperor. Ugh. Anyway: I find myself sympathizing with Vetinari when he says that civilization has no room for "heroes" like Cohen and that's a good thing, and when I find myself sympathizing with Vetinari I start to wonder if that's not a sign of something horribly wrong all by itself. (The way that the books have shifted their portrayal of Vetinari is really remarkable, not in a good way, when you think about it.) Anyway, for all the good things about this book, the lovely little details and character interactions, I am always suspicious of nostalgia, so it doesn't read as well to me now.
The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents: I find Maurice's harping on not eating talking creatures rather tiresome this time around since it's blazing obvious from the first mention what happened. And Malicia is notably awful. Otherwise my reaction to this is about the same as last time.
Night Watch: I hadn't registered before the extent to which this book takes as axiomatic that productive change can come neither from the masses nor the elites, which is really weird and unpleasant. Apparently the joke in early books about Vetinari's one-man one-vote system (he was the man, he had the vote) really is optimal for Ankh-Morpork. Hoping that you end up with a benevolent and competent dictator because that's the only way that progress will happen . . . well, I disagree, and let's leave it at that.
Also, Ned gets seriously short-changed, and it's nice to meet Vetinari's aunt.
The Wee Free Men: I still like this a lot for the Tiffany-Granny Aching relationship, which grounds what is surreal even for a Discworld book.

Fed Districts Report Modest-to-Moderate Economic Progress
Reports on residential housing markets remained largely positive across the country as the economy continued to expand at a modest-to-moderate pace in June and early July, the Federal Reserve reported in its latest Beige Book released July 18.
Economic activity in Cleveland, New York and Philadelphia continued to expand, but at a slower pace compared to the previous report, while Richmond cited mixed activity. Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Kansas City and Minneapolis described activity as advancing at a moderate pace, with Atlanta, San Francisco and St. Louis reporting modest growth.
The reported noted that home prices are stabilizing in some markets and price increases were noted in select markets. However, both Atlanta and Boston noted that appraisals were coming in below market prices.
Home sales increased in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Dallas, Kansas City, Minneapolis, New York, Philadelphia, Richmond, San Francisco and St. Louis. However, reports on sales were mixed in New York; gains in Boston eased from earlier in the year; and Philadelphia described new home sales as disappointing.
Most districts reported that rental markets were continuing to strengthen. Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas and New York cited increases in apartment rents. Multifamily construction was described as "strong" in Atlanta, Chicago and San Francisco; Dallas indicated that apartment construction likely will increase over the next several months.
Reports on commercial real estate markets were mixed among the districts. Atlanta, Boston and St. Louis indicated modest improvements in commercial real estate, while San Francisco reported strengthened demand. Dallas and Philadelphia reported that demand was relatively steady from the previous report; New York and Richmond indicated that conditions softened.
Both Kansas City and Minneapolis reported that nonresidential construction increased modestly, while Chicago reported an increase in demand. Boston indicated that commercial construction continued to gain momentum, with Cleveland reporting that activity was much improved from a year earlier. However, activity in Atlanta was flat year-over-year, while Richmond indicated that activity had softened over the past few months.
Most districts reported that demand for loans — particularly real estate loans — grew at a modest pace. Although Dallas indicated that demand for mortgage lending was especially strong, Cleveland and Richmond reported that activity was weaker. Chicago, Cleveland, New York and Richmond noted that mortgage loan refinancing was either steady or on the upswing, while Philadelphia indicated a slowdown. Both Dallas and Kansas City reported increases in agriculture and commercial real estate lending.

The Hindus recognized six principal varieties of taste with sixty-three possible mixtures ... the Greeks eight .... These included the four that are now regarded as fundamental, namely 'sweet,' 'bitter,' 'acid,' 'salt.' ... The others were 'pungent' (Gk. drimys, Skt. katuka-), 'astringent' (Gk. stryphnos, Skt. kasaya-), and, for the Greeks, 'rough, harsh' (austeros), 'oily, greasy' (liparos), with the occasional addition of 'winy' (oinodes). [Buck]Taste buds is from 1879; also taste goblets.
Of all the five senses, 'taste' is the one most closely associated with fine discrimination, hence the familiar secondary uses of words for 'taste, good taste' with reference to aesthetic appreciation. [Buck]

My searching skills are failing, couldn't find where the posts of the Snake Glitch were, and couldn't find the (or a/decent) Photo Topic either.
Found the Photo Shoot topic though, but none of the pictures I have has anything to do with that.
So er... yeah, enjoy my photo's? =\
First of all, my Ghillie Suits!
Secondly, the Snake Glitch!
Thirdly, old photo's taken near the beginning of when MGO first began!
Fourthly, this is for Antho, as he wanted me to take a picture of how he died.
Lastly, an interesting photo for you all. =\
I have got other photo's that I have put onto my PC, but I wont post them ones until the photo topic is found, if a new one is made or if you lot want me to post them here.
I also have some still on MGO which I didn't put onto my PC.

As for the clan emblem, we had the original which you can choose from MGO I believe.

The Downtown Dash is a family-friendly 5K run/walk through downtown Glendale, benefitting Stroke Services for our community at Glendale Adventist Medical Center.
Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the United States and the second leading cause of death for San Fernando Valley area residents. While the disabling results are most often preventable, stroke remains the leading cause of adult disability in the country.
With this in mind, DowntownGlendale.com teamed up with stroke experts at the Glendale Adventist Neuroscience Institute to bring you the Downtown Dash and educate our community on the prevention and treatment of stroke.
Stay tuned for more information on the Dash.

I have been working at Amazon.com full-time for more than 3 years
Pros – Amazon is a great entry place for engineers. A mix of some ability and some drive will get an entrant into the full engineering exposure at a fast pace. Most of the direct software managers have engineering backgrounds mostly as experienced engineers at the company they don't just know about the technology but will have insight into relative teams too.
Cons – Management ability is completely random. Many do not have the training or ability to manage. The rise by force of will culture leads to a culture of it's everyone's responsibility who has a certain level of competence to do everything. Organization makes no sense in that way.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Federal sites across the country are incorporating water efficiency measures as part of their overall comprehensive UESC projects. As it becomes more difficult to secure internal funding for efficiency projects, working with your local utility can be a very effective way to implement a comprehensive program that incorporates water efficiency measures.
The rising cost of water and sewer services is one reason sites should include water efficiency measures as part of their overall efficiency program. The General Services Administration (GSA) water and sewer rates have increased, on average, by 23% between 1993 and 1999. In the GSA Rocky Mountain region, these rates increased by more than 180%, reflecting an increasingly scarce water supply in many regions of the country. Another incentive for water conservation comes from Executive Order 13123 (PDF 103 KB, 12 pp). It mandates water-use reductions at Federal sites, stating, "Through life-cycle cost-effective measures, agencies shall reduce water consumption and associated energy use in their facilities." Download Adobe Reader
Water efficiency technologies often have short paybacks of six years or less. Many water conservation measures not only save water but also save energy used in heating and pumping. Utilities and agencies are discovering that incorporating water conservation as part of an energy program helps to buy down the overall cost of the project. In one case, a utility was able to include an additional 15% of mechanical work by implementing water efficiency measures in comprehensive energy projects at Federal sites.

She was once a guest on Paula Deen´s cooking show and had to be bleeped every third sentence. Her alleged mind is preoccupied with adolescent sexual innuendo and overt sexuality. She is, in short, an attention-seeking, vulgar opportunist who thinks she is funny. She is merely pathetic.When I saw her on Paula Deen´s show, I thought, "I doubt she´ll be back". I hope not for Ms. Deen´s sake. As for CNN´s inclusion of her in their show, it was poor judgment at best. Anderson Cooper´s reaction was exactly as it should have been -- horrified, embarrassed and not wanting to be on the same show as Ms. Griffin.She needs to grow up. Adults whose speech and actions are peppered with sexual references and gestures reveal a mind not capable of intelligent discourse nor dignity, an arrested-development that is more pathetic than amusing, more sad than funny.

Perhaps as/more disgusting were continual scenes of the rabid kissing as the ball dropped in Times Square.

For those unaware, Kathy Griffin has been Cooper´s sidekick on his New Year´s Eve shows for a few years now, and each year she strives to top the previous year´s "outrage." They appear to be show-biz buddies; a year ago she did a segment on his daytime tv show highlighting her vacationing with him at his summer retreat. Any embarrassment Cooper is claiming about Monday night is wholly insincere. They probably rehearsed and ran lines ahead of time.This annual gig goes over big with Griffin´s gay audience, which is to say 99 percent of her fans. (No doubt she is more popular with gays than Cooper himself is.) At 52 and basically blind in one eye following bad Lasik surgery a few years back, Griffin works harder all the time at her "shock" antics. Her mock "dating" of Levi Johnston was similar publicity garner-ing, as was her obscene remark about Jesus at the Emmys, etc., etc. The list is long. No one is happier than Griffin that she has reaped all this attention from her routine the other night; mission accomplished. She must be hugging herself. And CNN, equally thrilled, probably has signed her up for next New Year´s Eve. Click Here if you Like this Comment

Interesting to hear the perspective of the older folks around here. I´m 31, so presumably I have to live through plenty more of this garbage. It´s sad to watch.I really thought things were far gone when Sandra Fluke addressed the Democratic convention. A woman demanding that other people subsidize her sex life against their will, and being hailed as a hero for it, seems like the apotheosis of cultural silliness in a nation increasingly prone to ineffectual naval-gazing. I have no confidence that we have seen the worst of it.I remember watching an interview with the very elderly historian Jacques Barzun, in which he said our culture is decadent and will sooner or later hit the skids, but thankfully a regeneration will come out of that collapse, as it always does. Hey, that´s fine for Barzun -- he was old when he gave the interview, and he recently passed away. Am I supposed to be relaxed because stuff will get better 200 years from now?!?!

Kathy Griffin is on the David Letterman show right now. Everyone laughing and applauding - gay jokes, gay references, obscene references, ad nauseam. Watched to see if she had an apology for her revolting behavior. Stupid me. There aren´t words to describe her disgusting appearance. I wonder if the TV show of David Letterman (a current Kennedy Center Honoree) is always this vulgar and crass. Click Here if you Like this Comment
Agree, #8 and all those who wonder if they´ve lived too long. Every day there is another outrage against decency and our American way of life.The TV in our home was turned on to the Dick Clark show just to watch the ball drop, and we were commenting on how awful New Year´s Eve programming has become. We didn´t even know who most of those people were. At midnight, we turned off the TV and had a family party, which we´ve done since the kids, now grown, were small.If Anderson Cooper were a genuine newscaster, he would have asked to go to commercial, and come back without that "skank" as so many here have called her.

The nature of a particular utility service as private or public is an issue that comes up from time to time in the context of certain development projects. The distinction is important because the implication when falling on the public side of the line is that public utilities are subject to regulation by the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, whereas private utility services are not.

The Saudi Gazette, Saudi Arabia
By Suzan Zawawi
RIYADH - HOTTER and drier weather, less rainfall and frequent droughts threaten the Kingdom due to climate change.
Startling statistics were presented Saturday morning at the United Nations headquarters here during the local launch of the Human Development Report 2007/2008: "Fighting Climate Change: Human Solidarity in a Divided World."
"If we don't take action today and take responsibility of our actions today, our children will be inheriting a polluted and sick planet," said El-Mostafa Benlamlih, UN Resident Coordinator."The world has less than a decade to avoid dangerous climate change that could bring unprecedented human development reversals," he said.
"The whole of the Middle East will suffer from dry, hot weather," said David Aubrey, General Manager of Woodshole Group.
In Saudi Arabia, especially in Riyadh, it will be drier and hotter, he said.
Saudi Arabia, as a major oil exporter, has already taken up the issue of climate change. Last month at the opening of the third OPEC summit in Riyadh, King Abdullah announced a $300 million fund to develop technology to tackle climate change.
The UN climate report listed water shortage as the main threat faced by Middle Eastern countries due to climate change. The region has already become the world's most water-stressed region; climate change could add around 1.8 billion people to the population living in a water scarce environment by 2080, the report said.
Scientists have estimated that the earth temperature will increase 2-4 degree Centigrade in the next 100 years, compared to 0.70 degree Centigrade in the past 100 years.
"This is very serious," said Benlamlih. "Some scientists predict that the earth wouldn't be able to handle such dramatic increase in temperature."
The Human Development Report 2007/2008 called for a 'twin track' approach that combines stringent mitigation to limit 21st Century warming to less than 2 degree Centigrade, with strengthened international cooperation.
Benlamlih highlighted the importance of the forthcoming international climate change conference to be held in Bali from Monday as a unique opportunity to put the interests of the world's poor and future generations at the heart of climate change negotiations.
To reduce the dangerous effect of climate change the world must reduce its Carbon Dioxide emission to 50 percent by 2050 with a peak by 2020; developed countries must cut it by 80 percent by 2050 and under developing countries must cut it 20 percent by 2050.

Climategate Rumblings

AHA! You said leak before hack, futher proof that you are a right wing fossil fuel climate denier tool of Bush and other evil cronies!
Well, you've seen how some of such stripes react to you! ;) - Tue Jan 12, 08:42:00 PM MST

Steve Mosher seems to be enjoying his moment :)
This is my current understanding of his chronology:
1. The File (or a link to it) was posted to an unnamed moderated blog
2. The unnamed Blog moderator held the comment in moderation, and sent the file to Steve on CD for authentication.
3. On November 19th, UEA tells employees about the leak and Mosher finds out about this.
4. Mosher realizes that this means that the file has been posted somewhere else. He goes looking and finds it on Jeff's blog.
Even supposing that:
A. I have understood correctly and
B. All this is true and
C. The blog moderator is about to be named
would this actually tell us anything meaningful about who the leaker or hacker was?
Does Roger know something beyond what has appeared in those blogs? - Tue Jan 12, 09:06:00 PM MST
- Tom said...
Pretty sure it's a false alarm.
- Tue Jan 12, 10:04:00 PM MST

So the blog moderator is just CTM at Anthony Watts site. This still doesn't tell us anything terribly interesting.

As I have asked elsewhere, how come it is taking so long for a computer forensics team to identify the individual or individuals responsible for releasing the cache of CRU emails and files? My interpretation is that they already know, it has significant political ramifications and politicians are waiting for things to cool down or for the equivalent of 5pm on a Friday before a long weekend or for some startling confirmation of CAGW. Releasing the identity now during a very cold winter could be a PR nightmare.

It would appear that the major insurnance companies are taking climategate seriously.
As they are the ones that pay the price of 'climate catastrophies' they have the most to lose. - Wed Jan 13, 09:23:00 AM MST
- knowledgedrift said...
new to blogging, not certain where to post this but I have a question:
Given that various atmospheric and ocean processes redistribute heat from the equator to the poles, and we can infer from recent data that this results in global temperature increases being most pronounced at the poles, would this not result in earth radiation to space increasing at a far greater pace at the poles than the over all temperature increase at the global level? As an example, using NASA's estimate of north pole temps increasing by a factor of 8 versus equatorial temperatures we could infer the following using degrees K:
Mean temp at equator 300 K
Mean temp at pole 200 K
global temperature increase results in:
Mean temp at equator 300.25 (+0.08%)
Mean temp at pole 202 (plus 2.00%)
This effect would be further skewed by a deficit of greenhouse gases such as water vapour and ozone at the poles. In brief, any warming regardless of specific forcing would result in increase cooling at the poles. As my expectation is that this would be a response where the mitigation effect lags the forcing by about 150 years (based on solar forcing versus global on a millennial time scale) this would be outside of the window of data consideration for most climate models and would result in them over estimating any given forcing.
Would appreciate your comments. - Wed Jan 13, 10:14:00 AM MST

Harrywr2, what peril or perils are those insurance companies worried about? Flood - usually excluded. Wind - coastal sublimits and exclusions available to limit risk. In the reinsurance arena risks tend to become somewhat murky as the LMX spiral revealed.
Question: Are these insurance companies invested in green solutions? - Wed Jan 13, 10:57:00 AM MST
- bernie said...
Harry #6
I would not use the actions of insurance companies as an indicator of very much. It is heightened and misplaced fear of future rare events that make insurance companies rich by enabling them to garner unjustified risk premiums - as long as a functioning secondary insurance market exists. - Wed Jan 13, 11:32:00 AM MST

Harrywr2 said...
"It would appear that the major insurnance companies are taking climategate seriously. . . As they are the ones that pay the price of 'climate catastrophies' they have the most to lose."
I am not sure this follows. They are raising their premiums now to cover eventualities. Their profits will go up (I think) whether or not those eventualities occur because the total volume of their business will be higher. They might have an incentive to over-estimate the risk? - Wed Jan 13, 12:24:00 PM MST
- Tom said...
The key to discovering if the files were leaked or hacked is out in the open. Anyone who wants to look at all the files that made it into the public can find it. Metadata regarding the file folder and its contents were changed prior to the release so that investigators would not be able to identify an internal profile based on who was in the building at the time the folder was captured.
- Wed Jan 13, 12:29:00 PM MST
- knowledgedrift said...
Mean temp at equator 300.25 (+0.08%)
Mean temp at pole 202 (plus 2.00%)
of course I meant 1%, not 2.
although if i change the original model such that the temp at the north pole was 100 K... yes that's it, not bad math on my part, just original data was wrong... :-) - Wed Jan 13, 02:24:00 PM MST
- MIKE said...
Am I right that the released files were selective? If so it strongly suggests someone with prior knowledge of their content. I can't imagine a hacker spending hours going through 1000's of emails.
- Wed Jan 13, 02:38:00 PM MST

Here is the NAIC disclosure questions for insurance companies. The questions strike me more as policy/political rather than having any bearing on measuring or disclosing real insured risk.

- Harrywr2 said...
Having worked in the insurance industry as a computer analyst.
Insurance companies generally welcome requirements to increase their 'loss reserves'.
States require X amount of dollars for loss reserves, and the more that is required means the less tax insurance companies pay.
The insurance business is the greatest tax avoidance scheme of all time.
So the insurances companies pushing back against an invitation to hide even more money from the tax man is indeed an interesting story. - Wed Jan 13, 03:16:00 PM MST
- Craig said...
@ Harrywr2
The insurance companies are essentially being tasked to define how high is up...after questions one and two. Without definition of the peril, that is rather meaningless. Climate change is not a peril. Wind, fire, flood, quake etc. are. - Wed Jan 13, 03:28:00 PM MST
- Eric said...
Tom @ #11
very interesting. I recall this date/time stamp change coming out early on.
The thinking at that time was that the change may have been made to hide evidence that the files had been edited. - Wed Jan 13, 05:06:00 PM MST

Tony Blair now sells global warming insurance. Quite a step up for him.
Tony Blair has taken a second big job with a leading financial player, attracted by the prospect of working on its climate-change initiative.
The former Prime Minister has joined Zurich, the Swiss company, as an adviser. The appointment, thought to be worth at least £500,000 a year, comes less than three weeks after he took a similar role with J P Morgan Chase, one of the biggest investment banks on Wall Street. That was believed to be a package worth about £2 million a year.
He will assist Zurich on "developments and trends in the international political environment". His key interest, according to friends, was in its climate initiative, announced last week, developing products and research to combat global warming.

Re: Craig at 14,
I agree. The form is practically meaningless for other than political objectives. The respondant could write anything and have it be valid or acceptable. Even snide replies would do fine, reading the requirements.
I think it is a good bet that insurers are going to be thoughtful and cautious in raising rates due to climate-change speculation: it is not as if there isn't a lot of competition out there for the insured's policy. - Thu Jan 14, 06:07:00 AM MST

My first instinct in this case was an unhappy grad student or post doc. It has all the elements of execution by a younger generation. Older generations are notoriously sloppy on PC security. All he or she would need is a few minutes at Jones PC with a memory stick. If Jones was using Outlook you would only need to copy the PST file and load it on your own PC. You then in secrecy edit down the file. - Thu Jan 14, 05:53:00 PM MST

Physical Therapy - When Physical Therapy Can Help
Physical therapy and recovery from injury
Physical therapy can help you recover from an injury and avoid future injury by reducing pain in the soft tissues (muscles, tendons, and ligaments), improving flexibility and function, and building muscle strength. Your physical therapist can also evaluate how you do an activity and make suggestions for doing the activity in a way that is less likely to result in an injury. Following are examples of injuries for which physical therapy is helpful:
Physical therapy and chronic health conditions
Physical therapy can help you live more easily with chronic or ongoing health conditions. Your physical therapist will work with you to establish your goals, then create a program of educational, range-of-motion, strengthening, and endurance activities to meet your needs. Here are some examples of chronic conditions that may be helped by physical therapy:
- Spinal stenosis
- Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Parkinson's disease
- Temporomandibular problems
- Multiple sclerosis
- Vertigo
Physical therapy and health conditions requiring a rehabilitation team approach
Some conditions involve several body systems and can lead to significant disability. These conditions-such as stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury, and major cardiopulmonary (heart and lung) problems-are usually addressed by a team of health professionals. The team can include doctors; nurses; physical, occupational, and speech therapists; psychologists; and social workers, among others. Physical therapists are a critical part of this team. They address the issues of range of motion, strength, endurance, mobility (walking, going up and down stairs, getting in and out of a bed or chair), and safety. The physical therapist may also get you the equipment you need, such as a walker or wheelchair, and make sure you can use the equipment appropriately. Following are some examples of health conditions that commonly involve a rehabilitation team:
Physical therapy and significant health conditions of childhood
Physical therapists also work with children who have major injuries or health conditions. They address the usual issues of range of motion, strength, endurance, and mobility. Also, the therapist considers the child's special growth and developmental needs.
Treatment is often provided in the school or in a facility just for children. The way physical therapy and other services are delivered in the schools varies among the states. Talk to your child's doctor, school, or your local health department if you think your child may qualify for evaluation or treatment services.
Cerebral palsy is an example of a childhood health condition that is usually addressed in part by physical therapy. Other injuries and conditions include brain injury, muscular dystrophy, and arthritis.
