Solar Collectors
Solar thermal collectors are used to heat air, water or other liquids, depending on the applications, while solar photovoltaic (PV) collectors are used to convert sunlight to electricity directly. High-temperature solar thermal collectors are also used to produce electricity indirectly via thermodynamic cycles. Non-concentrating (or flat-plate) types of solar collectors can produce temperatures of about 100?C or less, which is applicable for many uses such as building heating and cooling, domestic hot water and industrial process heat. Medium-temperature concentrating collectors such as parabolic troughs or parabolic dishes may be used to provide temperatures from about 100?C to about 400?C. Such collectors may be used for various applications from refrigeration to industrial process heat and electricity generation. Central-receiver types of solar concentrating collectors are able to produce temperatures as much as 2 000?C or even higher. Therefore, they are used to produce electrical power and as high-temperature furnaces in industrial processes.
PV panels are solid-state and are therefore very rugged, with a long life. At present, panels based on crystalline and polycrystalline silicon solar cells are the most common. Their efficiencies have gradually increased, while costs have decreased over the last three decades. For example, the efficiencies of multijunction cells and concentrating PV have been reported to be as high as 40%, and most panels available in the market have efficiencies of the order of 15%. The retail price of PV panels came down from about US$ 30/W about 30 years ago to about US$ 3/W some 3 years ago. The price went up recently, owing to a very rapid increase in demand which created a temporary shortage of silicon wafers. While this situation has created opportunities for investments in silicon wafer production which will bring supply into line with demand, it has also created opportunities for companies to start production of thin-film solar cells based on cadmium telluride (CdTe) and copper indium diselenide (CIS), which use much less material and therefore have the potential to ultimately bring the cost of PV panels down to about US$ 1/W.
To evaluate the efficiency of solar energy systems, a standard flux of about 1 000 W/m2 is used, which is approximately the solar radiation incident on a surface directly facing the sun on a clear day around noon. Consequently, solar systems are rated in terms of peak watts (output under a 1 kW/m2 illumination).

The NERC Soil Portal provides a gateway to discover, view and download large-scale soils property datasets from across NERC research centres.
It aims to bring together resources to improve our understanding of soils and to help answer key, policy led questions.
Soils contribute to numerous ecosystem services and supply a range of benefits to society. It is therefore essential that the soil resource is protected.
Through the improved knowledge and services developed using integrated data, the soil portal will ultimately help to create sustainable land management solutions to prevent degradation.
mySoil is a new free smartphone app from the BGS and the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology.
mySoil lets you take a soil properties map of Britain with you wherever you go, helping you learn about the soil beneath your feet. For more information visit our mySoil page.
Data can be browsed, visualised and downloaded using our soil portal viewer and via the relevant
soil data and soil map pages.
We are working to make more of our datasets readily accessible and will be adding new data and map content to these pages as it becomes available.

"Great hotel."
Loved the hotel and ease at which i could get to things in Dallas. The room was never at a comfortable temp. Always too hot even thought the ac unit was on full blast and so was the fan.and set to the lowest temp. The wifi access was spotty and very hard to get onto the internet. I did inform the manager but reseting the modem did not help. The signal […] did not stabilize and when it did I was not able to get onto the net at all. All in all it was a good room. 더 보기검증된 Expedia 이용 후기
"A place to sleep"
The WiFi signal did not penetrate all the way into my room, so I had no internet connectivity unless I put my laptop right next to the window. There is only one ice maker for all three floors and it was not sufficient for the amount of people staying at the hotel. The speed bumps are ridiculously high -- to the point where your car bottoms out and damages […] things when you go over them even at very slow speeds. The hotel management did not turn the air-conditioning on in the lobby, so it was a bit warm in the morning when I went in there for breakfast. The air-conditioning worked well in the room though. The bed was comfortable enough, I guess, but I sleep in a Coleman flannel sleeping bag instead of using the hotel sheets, so it offers a bit more padding than just the regular mattress. I had some bug bites though, but I don't know for certain if they were bed bugs. It's not a place I would take my wife, but as just a place to sleep for a few hours, it's acceptable. At $40 per night, it was the cheapest thing on hotels.com and my expectations were not that high. 더 보기검증된 Hotels.com 숙박객 이용 후기

I stayed at the Executive Inn for one week. The experience was subpar. The room was only cleaned every other day. The sheets looked like they were at least 10 years old. The WIFI is free but spotty at best, even in the lobby. I used the 4g on my phone more then I used the wifi because it was just too annoying.

Got into the hotel at around 1:00 a.m. after driving from Greensboro, GA (east of Atlanta.) I am disabled and was put on the 2nd floor after I requested the other side of the building due to no parking on my side. My dog found condom wrappers on the floor. Sheets were dirty.. had a big black footprint in the middle. I didn't address these until morning, […] as we were completely exhausted. When I went to tell him about the sheets, I said, "You are going to be upset with the cleaning staff...I had a few problems..." His response was, "What? Bedbugs?" On that note, I had to ask if they had them. He said no, but needless to say, my son and I itched the rest of the day and had to stop and re-shower at a truck stop. Breakfast & coffee were only available from 7-9am and was taken down at 8:45. With all of these problems, he never said sorry or offered to refund any money. 더 보기검증된 Expedia 이용 후기

By Sammy Batten
Duke's emergence as a bowl qualifier this season has set up a rare opportunity for the state of North Carolina.
The Blue Devils became bowl eligible for the first time since 1994 last Saturday by pulling out a 33-30 win against North Carolina.
Duke is the first of North Carolina's five Football Bowl Subdivision programs to meet the NCAA-required six wins to become bowl eligible. But there is a good chance that at least three others could join the Blue Devils in the vast post-season pool before all is said and done.
Of course, it's a done deal that the University of North Carolina won't be in that group since the Tar Heels are serving a one-year bowl ban as part NCAA sanctions levied against their program in March.
But entering today's games, East Carolina and N.C. State need just one more victory to meet NCAA bowl standards and Wake Forest is only two shy of qualifying.
If those three come through, it'll mark just the third time four in-state schools have advanced to post-season play.
Duke was also a key factor the first time four in-state schools made bowl appearances.
When the Blue Devils earned a bid to the Hall of Fame Bowl in 1994, North Carolina also played in the Sun Bowl, N.C. State in the Peach Bowl and East Carolina in the Liberty Bowl. Only the Wolfpack came away victorious, edging Mississippi State, 28-24.
A North Carolina foursome reached the post-season again in 2008 when UNC made it to the Meineke Car Care Bowl, N.C. State played in the Papajohns.com Bowl, Wake Forest went to the EagleBank Bowl and ECU again reached the Liberty Bowl. The Deacons scored the only victory that year, beating Navy, 29-19.
Of course, with 35 bowl games currently sanctioned by the NCAA, more than half of the 120 FBS teams will reach post-season play. But that could change dramatically by 2014 when the new four-team playoff format goes into affect.
So, we better take advantage of the opportunities while they last.
Wake Forest certainly has the toughest challenge to reach six wins.
The Deacons have to find two more wins against a remaining schedule that includes Boston College, N.C. State, Notre Dame and Vanderbilt. Notre Dame is nationally ranked and the Wolfpack is competing for the ACC's Atlantic Division title, so it would appear the Deacons best chances will be against BC and Vanderbilt.
Four bowl teams would be impressive. But getting all five in-state squads in bowls would be the ultimate.
Maybe next year.

The Bureau of Reclamation announced Feb. 25 that it released a draft supplemental environmental assessment on Ridgway Dam Hydropower Interconnection Facilities. The draft EA supplements the 2012 Ridgway Hydropower Environmental Assessment and finding of no significant impact, and addresses additional details and information on the interconnection and transmission facilities.
The proposed action in the EA is to issue a license agreement and rights-of-way to Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association for construction of interconnection facilities to interconnect Tri-County Water Conservancy District Hydropower facilities to the existing 115-kV transmission line that runs along U.S. Highway 550. In addition, a Memorandum of Agreement will be signed with Tri-County to relocate dry storage facilities and utilities operated by Colorado Parks and Wildlife as part of Ridgway State Park.
Tri-County is currently constructing the hydropower facilities at Ridgway Dam on the Uncompahgre River in Ouray County, and operates and maintains Ridgway Dam.
The draft supplemental environmental assessment is available at www.usbr.gov/uc/ under environmental documents or a copy can be received by contacting Steve McCall with Reclamation in Grand Junction at (970) 248-0638 or
Reclamation will consider all comments received prior to preparing a final environmental assessment. Comments can be submitted to the e-mail address above or to: Ed Warner, Area Manager, Bureau of Reclamation, 2764 Compass Drive, Suite 106, Grand Junction, CO 81506. Comments are due by Friday, March 15.

I am truing to GIZMO map a small cilindrical part of a rifle, but I have never really used GIZMO MAPPING before.
I did a search on these forums... And, I watched a few YouTube tutorials.
Nothing I have found seems to look like what I see when I open the GIZMO MAPPER in O2.
All of the tutorials I have found show a GREEN arrow in the GIZMO window. (MINE has a BLUE arrow).
I can not rotate the texture (in the GIZMO window) so that it is pointing in the same direction as the arrow... and the arrow will only switch from pointing UP, or DOWN. (It will not point horizonlally)
Am I using a different version of the program than everybody else has?

Flip is the book I got for our Si-Fi novels. I wanted to read Flip because when Mrs. Berkman read the back and the first page was drawn to it. An exciting moment was when Billy the bully and Ryan a main chacter got in a fight. I would recomend this book to many people because it's well plotted and has great detail. If your looking for a great book read Flip!
Heat Sealing Machine!

The heat sealing machine is useful like how my parents use it to press numbers onto a shirt. It's better to use this than to iron it on the shirt. Sebra is the company that made this helpful machine. The heat sealing machine has a handle and a square shaped thing to press the number or letters down. This is one of the most important machines in mine and my parents life. The picture of the heat sealing machine blow is small they are usually bigger.

Unfortunately my sister and my parents aren't going. It will be a week without my parents. I know I will still have fun there even without them. That's all i'm doing for spring break!

The topic in nonfiction I like the best is elephants. I am interested in elephants because they are cute and there is a lot to learn about these cute animals. I already know that sadly people cut their tusks off and use them as tools. This dangerous activity kills the elephant. Elephants are cute and fun animals so keep them safe!

My Thought On Poetry

I enjoy reading End Rhyme poems and Onomatopoeia. Two of my favorite poets are Shel Silverstein and Jack Prelutsky. I can easily find End Rhyme, Onomatopoeia, and Alliteration. One poetic device I would use is Onomatopoeia. Creative poems to me would be about things you like and about your life.
My Grandma's Like a Thermos

My Grandma's Like A Thermos
A thermos knows when to keep things hot
and when to keep things cold.
Even before you ask it,
it does what it is told.
It's kind of like a Grandma,
who knows exactly what to say,
even before I tell her I'm happy,
or that I'm having a mushy sort of day.
By James Proimos
I enjoy this poem because It's sweet and I can relate to it because my grandma is alway's trying to make me happy. It's a grat poem and I hope you decide to read it mor and more!

Why Are They Called S'mores?

I'm doing Why Are They Called "S'mores"? Have you ever thought who invented s'mores? We don't know! They were first published in a Traming And Trailing Girl Scouts cooking book. Loretta Scott Crew was given credit for making the recipe because she made them by a campfire for her Girl Scouts. They are called s'more because it's short for "some s'mores". This named was invented by the Girl Scouts in 1971. You make s'mores by getting two graham crackers and chocolate bars and don't forget the marshmallows!
Marshmallow- A round squishy and white tasty food.
Gooey- Near to melting substance that if touched will stick.
Varieties- Very many of one kind.

Every year the French Heritage Language Program helps hundreds of young Americans and new immigrants make the most of their French here in the United States.
In the US, French is spoken by hundreds of thousands of people, who come from Haiti, West Africa, Canada, and Europe. French is also spoken by Americans from New England and Louisiana. Yet for many of them, especially new immigrants and lower socio-economic status families, having the possibility to continue learning or keeping up their French is often a challenge.
The French Heritage Language Program is a program of the non-profit foundation FACE, in partnership with the French Embassy in the United States. Since 2005, it has helped over 2,500 children, students and adults from underserved communities of francophone background enrich their knowledge of the French language and maintain strong bonds with their respective cultures and identities.
"Making French an asset for new Americans"
The primary objectives of FHLP program are to help these students make the most of their French linguistic and cultural heritage here in the United States. By strengthening their knowledge of the French language and reinforcing their cultural identities, our students develop strong bilingual skills and so increase their opportunities for success in their new environment, both academically and professionally. They can take valuable examinations facilitating access to higher education and expand their perspectives for job careers in the US. In doing so, French becomes a strong asset not only for our students but also for educators, schools, families and communities.
Through university partnerships, our program also contributes to scholarly research in the field of heritage language learning. As a program embedded in schools and community centers, it is a place for pedagogical and methodological exploration, and a way to build new partnerships. We develop curriculum models that can be replicated and adapted in other cities in the United States.
The French Heritage Language Program works closely with the Internationals Network for Public Schools, which includes seventeen high schools for new immigrants in New York City, Washington DC and California, all working at the development of models for global education.
Our program is offered in New York, Florida, Maine and Boston and currently serves 700 students from elementary to high school levels.
There is high demand for French Heritage classes across the country and we are looking for new partners to help us set up new programs where there is need.
In New York, the French Heritage Language Program currently serves 485 students at elementary and high school levels, and in several community centers.
HIGH SCHOOLS - Bronx International High School - Claremont International High School (Bronx) - International Community High School (Bronx) - International High School at Crotona (Bronx) - Brooklyn International High School - International High School at Lafayette (Brooklyn) - International High School at Prospect Heights (Brooklyn) - International High School at Union Square (Manhattan) - Manhattan International High School (Manhattan) - GED+ Jamaica Learning Center (Queens)
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL - NYFACS, New York French American Charter School (Harlem)
COMMUNITY CENTERS - Malian Cultural Center (Bronx) - Haitian Americans in Action, Bethanie SDA Church (Brooklyn) - Haitian Americans in Action, Eben-Ezer SDA Church (Brooklyn)
Donate to the French Heritage Language Program, and help underserved communities make the most of their French here in the United Sates (do not forget to mention FHLP in the "designation" box).
$250: 1 year of French class for 1 student. $750: 1 year of textbooks and class material for 16 students. $1,500: 2 weeks of summer camp abroad for 1 student. $4,000: 1 year of French class for 16 students.

How to Revive a Lost Language
By the year 2100, the human race will have lost about half of the languages in use today. Every fourteen days a language dies. For native speakers of Navajo, Southwestern Ojibwa, Ohlone or Aragonese, losing their language means losing cultural heritage and history. And saving a dying language is really hard. But the people who provide life support for the struggling tongues can look to one success story: Yurok. The Los Angeles Times reports:
Last fall, Eureka High became the fifth and largest school in Northern California to launch a Yurok-language program, marking the latest victory in a Native American language revitalization program widely lauded as the most successful in the state.
At last count, there were more than 300 basic Yurok speakers, 60 with intermediate skills, 37 who are advanced and 17 who are considered conversationally fluent.
That might seem like a small group, but in the 1990s, there were just six Yurok speakers left.
Keeping small languages vibrant has always been a big challenge, says National Geographic:
Throughout human history, the languages of powerful groups have spread while the languages of smaller cultures have become extinct. This occurs through official language policies or through the allure that the high prestige of speaking an imperial language can bring. These trends explain, for instance, why more language diversity exists in Bolivia than on the entire European continent, which has a long history of large states and imperial powers.
As big languages spread, children whose parents speak a small language often grow up learning the dominant language. Depending on attitudes toward the ancestral language, those children or their children may never learn the smaller language, or they may forget it as it falls out of use. This has occurred throughout human history, but the rate of language disappearance has accelerated dramatically in recent years.
Many linguists are trying to preserve these languages as they totter along towards extinction. The Endangered Language Project is creating an online database of research and information about languages that are imperiled. There are currently 141 languages that qualify as extinct or "sleeping." Aramaic isn't on that list, but it's close. Linguists are working furiously to preserve the language that Jesus spoke, Smithsonian reports:
Aramaic, a Semitic language related to Hebrew and Arabic, was the common tongue of the entire Middle East when the Middle East was the crossroads of the world. People used it for commerce and government across territory stretching from Egypt and the Holy Land to India and China. Parts of the Bible and the Jewish Talmud were written in it; the original "writing on the wall," presaging the fall of the Babylonians, was composed in it. As Jesus died on the cross, he cried in Aramaic, "Elahi, Elahi, lema shabaqtani?" ("My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?")
But Aramaic is down now to its last generation or two of speakers, most of them scattered over the past century from homelands where their language once flourished. In their new lands, few children and even fewer grandchildren learn it. (My father, a Jew born in Kurdish Iraq, is a native speaker and scholar of Aramaic; I grew up in Los Angeles and know just a few words.) This generational rupture marks a language's last days. For field linguists like Khan, recording native speakers—"informants," in the lingo—is both an act of cultural preservation and an investigation into how ancient languages shift and splinter over time.
The key to success for Yurok is teaching children the language that perhaps their parents forgot, says the LATimes:
The tribe has pushed for high school classes to be scheduled in the early morning — to get students there and keep them there. It seems to be working.
Alex Gensaw lives next door to tribal elder Archie Thompson and craved a deeper connection to his culture. He came into McQuillen's class three years ago knowing only 10 words of Yurok: It wasn't spoken in his home. But the 16-year-old (a second cousin to Yurok teacher James Gensaw) now is teaching his mom. And his feelings about the high school have shifted. "It's like they care more," he said.
In the Northwest Territories of Canada, a kindgerarten class might be the last chance for the Tlicho Yait language, Smithsonian reported last year:
In a bid to save their language, and with it, their culture, the Tlicho government has implemented an immersion kindergarten program taught entirely in their native language, Tlicho Yati, the first such class in neatly 20 years, reports the CBC. With only a few thousand native speakers spread amongst four main communities in the Northwest Territories, Canada, the language of the Tlicho people is in a tenuous position. A majority of Tlicho children do not speak the language, but similar immersion programs elsewhere have shown that kids are open to learning new languages.
And while many older native speakers are wary of academics and their recording devices, they're also wary of losing their words.

Aramaic is still taught through the Syrian orthodox church. In the mountains on the border of Turkey and Syria there is a village called Midyat with a monastery called saint Gabriels, where Aramaic and old Syriac is taught. In Damascus and Lebanon the church also had monasteries where Aramaic was taught to students who went to board there. In western countries the priests at most churches if trained through the monasteries also know and can teach this language.

what's the point? All human languages are constructs and evolve via their use. I cam think of many more causes more valuable in the world. New languages will evolve, old ones die for a reason, the protagonists die. Let them. Languages are artificial and superfluous to the evolution on the planet.

here a trick i used. Go to you local scuba store and buy a quality grade defogger for scuba goggles usually 8 to 10 dollars and your problem should be solved.
when your a man sometimes you wear stretchy pants in your room just for fun |

OR ignore the troll and make sure any new goggles you're buying make a good seal around your face. Bonus points for anti-fog coating on the lens.
Also, don't fiddle with your goggles constantly. For the longest time I had the cheapest pair of Bolle goggles that was literally a sheet of plastic in front of my eyes. No fog whatsoever. |

Don't take your goggles on and off. They will never stop fogging. Don't touch the inner lens or clean it either. It will rub off the anti fog treatment.
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. -Romans 5:8- |

I went out without my face ask today and no fogging problems, minutes after I put it back on it started fogging again. So I figured out the cause, but now my face is cold, what are my options now? Would one of those face bandanas cause the fogging to? Sucks to solve a problem only to create a new one.

We have a huge event that's coming up here in the New York area and -- this is replicated across the country but particularly here.
In New York City it's a huge walk it is the aids walk here it's in its 27.
The participation is upwards of 45000.
-- do this if this coming Sunday it's at 10 AM in the morning.
I'll be walking.
I did it.
Aids crisis coverage in Africa earlier in my career for ABC news and that was kind of my entree into worrying about the walk nationwide.
It's an honor and a pleasure to have Craig Miller who is the founder and producer of aids walk New York we're with the -- thank you for having morning.
First of all I want to give people an idea of where we are.
And our journey to fighting need.
-- this country we're in a place of great potential but still unfulfilled promise we have the capacity in this country to actually bring the aids epidemic.
-- and and the question is do we have the will do we have a commitment.
And are we prepared as a society to devote the resources to actually.
Defeat this epidemic.
It is within our grasp GMHC has been leading this effort.
With great effectiveness.
For decades.
And it is so heartening to see that so many people from throughout the Tri-State area will be rallying tomorrow.
And supportive teammates -- and support -- through robust effort to defeat this epidemic.
Well let's tell people about this because they know the aids walk New York is something and I just mention that you're saying -- that's the gay men's health crisis.
It's a New York City based nonprofit volunteer supported and community based aids service organization.
That is -- led the United States in the fight against aids it's founded in 1982.
And its main -- is I've read.
Was to kind of give a place it was almost like a support group announced it just -- can't.
Well I think in the mission and teammates he has evolved as -- epidemic it.
Itself has evolved so in the earliest days of this epidemic and -- -- he was indeed the world's first its organization.
The earliest days of this epidemic she -- he was largely engaged in helping people die with dignity.
And also helping get the word out which our government was very slow to do in terms of what people need to do to protect themselves.
-- fast forward to today and fortunately.
We are much more engaged in helping people live with dignity -- helping.
People well you certainly -- that any the parts of the world that you and I were talking off camera -- -- my my first.
Real experience with the the deadly nature of this disease didn't happen.
It happened in a place in South Africa about a thousand miles outside Cape Town basically.
In Zulu and was what the caller on its tribal.
And he would see just orphanages filled with children.
-- whose parents have died young parents have died many of them working in the city some of those moms.
Working as escorts and whatnot in contracting that disease and then bringing it back to the villages and these children left without parents many of them.
And it was really disheartening because you don't see the death.
In this country because we have pharmaceutical.
-- -- Well what you're describing -- -- what's taking place on the continent of Africa.
Is indeed.
Disheartening it also represents great potential that is yet to be fulfilled.
Because the Mets do exists and it is now is starting to kind of -- any got to get the government's selection fold that end yes -- but even here it's important to note.
We have 50000.
New infection you HIV occurring in the United States each year how -- -- -- with all of the information.
On condoms and how is that possible 50000 new infection well we need to keep in mind that you and I are both.
You know if -- told -- I was -- -- ranks.
Grew up you and I are both in in the middle of our lives and we're also -- that and -- -- both pretty well educated.
So we need to be mindful of the fact that there is constant perpetually zoom generation of people coming of -- Who need access to on this inclination art house -- -- keys themselves.
-- little terms that.
You say we have the capacity to in the aids epidemic that's gonna take all of us so who are -- and 50000 new infections a year at the younger they old I'm reading now that because of Viagra you've got.
75 -- becoming suddenly really sexually.
There are are they young are they hold the answer is yes.
They're young they're old and they're only there all ages in between.
And in New York City.
Increasingly -- -- women.
So that fully 13.
The new infections of HIV occurring in the tristate area.
Are are among our among females any ideas why that trend is happening well I think it has to do it.
-- Economics and economic disadvantage and the challenges that some women face.
Due to economic disparities.
In negotiating safe sex with their partners.
Interest and.
What a sad detail however you say that there's -- on the Verizon.
What would we need to do to bring the capacity you say we have this capacity and the aids epidemic when we need to do to -- we're going to happen this little a dollar amount.
Well it is it's it's a dollar amount it's a it's a commitment amount it's -- question of are we as a society going to remain vigilant.
Making honest culturally sensitive age appropriate.
HIV prevention information.
Available and secondly to what extent are we committed.
To making sure that all of those who could benefit.
From from HIV medications.
Have access to.
All right I want to welcome it Marjorie Hill she is the CEO of the game -- health crisis that first aids organization.
That's Craig and I were just talking about Marjorie could have -- good morning.
Great I understand you've got detained by security down there.
You know you're coming into a -- network and it can happen.
It happens to me when I forget my dad can have -- who are you.
That's what they suit me so anyway I'm glad you're here you're part of a conversation.
I feel like I wanna.
I kind of bring you right into the middle of it with a question that popped into my head as you were talking.
About the potential to in the aids epidemic and it seemed relatively simple to me a dollar amount of commitment and now.
What is the statement still you know it's not.
-- that people still think that HIV.
-- is what people think that it's not serious illness anymore and that it won't go to Africa and watch the children and they are well unfortunately don't have the South Africa you can go to Brooklyn.
-- go to -- You know right now in New York City one in five person living with HIV does not know that he -- she is affecting.
So right now somebody's getting ready for date tonight.
He -- to go away from Memorial Day weekend getting ready tonight gifted kid has no loyalty.
And they have no idea what let me ask you this because I mean obviously when you go to a different countries see the kind of that and that -- witnesses that journalists because of this disease.
It is different because they don't have a medical facilities I think a lot of people don't see it's such a threat in this country because we have medical care -- what you're saying is.
Nothing can help you if you don't -- you can't get medical care if you don't know they have HIV positive.
And there are people who know they HIV positive and continue to -- continues to be afraid.
I'm afraid that their families are going to reject them.
Afraid that -- coworkers -- garments on them and we say no no no that's not happening.
At GMHC BC.
Mothers whose.
Grandmothers who are warning us to help Chris -- at their door others to let them hold they only Atlanta.
-- you know -- mr.
Sharon is -- think I did not now.
That -- -- 50000 new infections that we'll see an HIV aids -- here on a third are women.
The third of new cases are women and women not increasingly of -- through.
Com and you know women think that they are.
Not advance.
And you know in terms of black women.
Aids is the number one cause of death for black women between the ages of -- -- 84 and 34.
I'm a black woman I'm not quite an age cohort anymore -- stock -- -- however I've never had a provide asks me what I like an HIV tests.
Yeah that's the news.
I think so are you saying that it should be part of the real world -- absolutely.
Absolutely people should go to their providers -- provided should be are routinely offering.
But if not people should go that it provided since day.
I'd like an HIV -- this is gonna sound like -- really basic question it at that bear with me if you can't in the seventies and early eighties when we first started hearing about HIV.
It -- Magic Johnson.
Totally put on the landscape for everybody because that became national figure that people -- kind of understand.
But we've seen -- -- twenty years with this disease I think people don't really understand how deadly dangers of we romantic is live twenty years because he got testing.
He got medical care he continues to give medical care he talks about.
Getting medical care.
And being consistent about that -- -- many people again any illness the longer you -- Vote them the more challenging the prognosis all right -- -- you know you need to be tested every if you sexually active.
-- period period.
-- -- game and so I think it's also people need to have those challenging conversations.
You know -- People won't say the people want everything to me that you can be isn't it but you can't have a conversation.
-- people.
Well you know I I don't know I'd like once you tell me I don't wanna upset -- and I don't want us.
And hand in brain in -- people get caught up in the moment.
I'm not to mention that out all -- Viagra sales we can't talk about that before you got here that.
And I had read that seniors are becoming so much were sexually active.
And I think it's a group that -- kind of feel like you know then they're done applicant -- they're not worried about getting pregnant so if he's not worried about writing pregnant wife use a condom well.
They are.
Sexy transmitted diseases so that the beauty of aids walk is that.
It's a -- -- and we need the funds but it also is these launches.
Public health it education -- -- -- round HIV.
In the world while we do free HIV testing in the park.
We give out condoms in the park and we give out information in the park.
And I'm so grateful to have a -- Craig Miller who.
You know 27 years ago had this vision every one being able to make a difference.
Occur we have a live chat going on simultaneous -- our conversation here David Larsen writes.
-- what is the biggest reason.
Your -- think that aids is spreading so today creek well.
I think it is spreading right along -- there.
Social -- -- your your last guest spoke out against marriage equality and it's the first time ever -- the argument but in terms of deficit.
I heard it with -- NetApp patents have been I think you saw me kind of I was like wow that I put this I think that's an dollars and cents version -- -- gentleman's statement.
Pointed to is that there's still a deficit in this country.
Into the quality there's.
-- deficit in terms of access to up.
Look too good.
Health care and so I think the number one impediment.
To the eradication of this disease -- has two parts.
The first part is to what extent that we needed to continue to reach new generation people become sexually active with the information they need to know to protect.
Up and secondly for those who are HIV infected how good of the job that we do.
Getting on medications to them which have implications not only -- Preserving their lives -- people who are properly medicated.
Have lessened the chance of that's an excellent point -- misses the point that out that is true though for everything because if you say that this kind of takes the same path as other.
Social diseases -- TDs.
You know if you were treating some of those who would you lessen the potential that you would spread it to somebody else.
And so you have to think -- I guess the term planning and walk around -- before you kill everybody here in the vehemently.
It's also about access and that for the same reasons that.
Black women have a high incidence of breast friends imminent -- -- hey Jeff.
Breast cancer death in -- same reason around cardiovascular.
And the same reason around.
You know other cancers I mean the issue around health and our country is about access and individuals who have.
Better access tend to have -- a health outcomes.
And I'm -- a little turned on here and I'm not gonna ask you guys to get into this because we don't have as much time as is I would like but Vincent the Campo -- on the live chat.
-- teaching abstinence is frowned upon question mark seems like that would be treating the cause.
I don't know how many other teenagers -- been around but there's always that one.
And -- you know we always have that -- and our group that just doesn't listen to -- and.
I'm not aware of anybody who thinks teaching abstinence.
Or -- that abstinence is a bad idea I think where the controversy.
Is those who are so unrealistic is to think that the only thing we should be informing our young people about is abstinence.
And that's been a flawed strategy since the days that.
Abstinence only does not work.
And accidents only works until it what does it.
And so it's not that we are opposed to individuals who.
Young model who decides if that's an option.
But we're opposed -- is saying that if that's the only option and people then choose otherwise.
Why are we giving them the information they need.
All right Sunday morning.
There's a VIP breakfast apple kick off.
A number of us will be there are wonderful I went to high school with Wendy Williams and -- I have rebounded.
Cross happened so I I know could see her varieties if you are really excited that this is the first time I've walked that the city of Minneapolis I have to OK okay but I haven't done -- -- New York.
And I'm expecting a traffic jam to start in Jersey to have.
But tell me what the day is like that we get fair for the -- breakfast.
You say that there are a lot of health care conversations that are gonna go away this is or isn't getting people tested well first of all -- Come down they come down with your buddies -- come down with family members say come down -- group's business is.
Doing movies in this island camps in new stores and people come down.

"…people would say that there's no way we could avoid Death and Taxes. But we have Ray Kurzweil saying we can escape death. And now we have the Bitcoin people saying we can escape taxes." – Jesse Hirsh
Interesting Interview – Jesse Hirsh on Digital Currency:
What is Digital Currency?
I think before we answer the question, 'Digital Currency?', it is worth understanding what currency is.
And currency is both a reflection of value, but a reflection of value, connected to time. The problem with the nation state, is that everyone gets the sense that time is done. Its a relic of a past time. Whereas we look at the internet and we say the internet is now. That digital media is now. So the notion of digital currency is the idea of value that is rooted in the present empire, in the present society, rather than the old society. So rather than use dollars, the idea of using Bitcoins, or the idea of using facebook credit, or the idea of using zynga credit, is much more relevant. Cause none of us are farmers in the traditional sense, having acreage in rural Ontario, but many of us are farmers in the farmville sense. We've got a virtual plot of land, a virtual cow, that if we get some virtual currency from our friends….so its really a matter of where society is going, society is going digital, so it only makes sense that our currency keeps pace.
So what is Bitcoin? Cause Bitcoin is one of the big names you here out there right now.
Bitcoin is perhaps one of the leading candidates, to be the Internet's Digital Currency. And if only because it is the most superior technology rather than the one that's backed by a specific authority. In fact bitcoin was created by an anonymous individual and is backed by anonymous collectives who want to see it rise, not just because they like it as a technology, but because they distrust traditional governments, because they distrust the way in which the current economy is controlled. So they've declared autonomy. Bitcoin is the first currency on the internet that has no connection to a national government. Has no connection to anything but the internet economy itself, and as a result, has quickly grown to be very popular. Perhaps among money launderers. Perhaps among web retailers. Certainly wikileaks embraced bitcoin because mastercard, visa and paypal cut them off, so they had no other alternative. So it provides a way for people to pay or get paid without care of the law. Without care of traditional established authorities, and in that sense, it embodies some of the virtues, or some of the sins, of the internet as a whole.
So I've read that Bitcoin can go one two ways, it'll either be a giant ponzi scheme or it'll either be the next greatest innovation to Google.
Although there's no reason it can't be both. Cause Google is arguably a ponzi scheme. If you could be at the top of a Google result, you'll get paid. But if you're on the 50th page of a google result, that's useless, you'll be nobody. Bitcoin is kinda similar. Normal currencies are kinda similar. If your family came to Canada 150 years ago, and bought lots of land, in what is now downtown Toronto, you've probably got a lot of currency. If you happen to be someone on the internet who bought domain names in the early 90s, you've now got a lot of currency. If you're someone who right now is buying up a lot of bitcoin, and is accumulating those bitcoins in such great numbers, 10 years from now, you could have a lot of currency. Part of it is speculation, but part of it is anticipating where society is moving.
So will the early adopters become rich?
No one can predict the future. The question is not whether or not we'll have a digital currency. The question is which digital currency that will be. Bitcoin has a huge headstart, if only because it was first past the post. What bitcoin does not have is the backing of a national government. The Canadian government, the Royal Canadian Mint has now unveiled a process in which they want to develop a Canadian digital currency. They are asking Canadians and experts from around the world, to give input on what that should mean. So it is certainly possible that a nation state could create a digital currency that is just as technically capable, and that people choose to use, instead of using bitcoin.
But the issue comes back to Death and Taxes. Cause it used to be, people would say that there's no way we could avoid Death and Taxes. But we have Ray Kurzweil saying we can escape death. And now we have the Bitcoin people saying we can escape taxes. That if you use a digital currency that is not tied to any national government, then you can escape the gaze of the taxman. I suspect that will appeal to a lot of people. And if it appeals to enough, if there's a critical mass of adopters, then bitcoin will be a reality and will trump any national or traditional currency. The best way to describe a marketplace is as a shared hallucination. Because really it's just what people perceive as being true that is true…..

Bob Seger
It's entirely fitting that Bob Seger's "Like a Rock" has for many years been the theme song of Chevy truck commercials. The Michigan native's blend of hard-driving rock and honest workingman's blues, eventually expanding into a heart-throbbing array of gruff, tender ballads, led to one blockbuster album after another throughout the '70s and '80s. Seger's original group, the Bob Seger System, with future Eagle Glenn Frey on rhythm guitar and backing vocals, had its first hit single in 1968 with "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" and the album of the same name, but failed to repeat the success in later releases. Seger worked with various other musicians before putting together the legendary Silver Bullet Band (Alto Reed on saxophone, Drew Abbott on guitar, Robyn Robbins on keyboards, Chris Campbell on bass, and Charlie Allen Martin on drums) and recording 1975's Beautiful Loser. The tour for that album produced the live double album Live Bullet, the first of many multi-platinum albums. Seger recorded less frequently through the late '80s and early '90s; his most recent release is 1995's It's a Mystery.

yup it's a lottery and you only get one - although i was lucky and my friend was picked too!
NOTE: VIP tickets DO NOT INCLUDE a meet and greet and will not have the opportunity to have an item signed. The allotment of VIP tickets is up to 200 and EC won't be able to do 200 meet and greets before the show. Be sure to request a meet and greet through the tour section of the site and you may be able to get one through that channel.
Typically this is allowed but I would recommend checking with the venue to verify they will allow you to bring it in. It is also a good idea to see if they have a lost & found or security office where they will secure your guitar until after the show. It can get pretty rowdy and I'd hate for your guitar to get broken or beer-soaked.
That information is incorrect. It depends which show you are going to whether you will need a code or not. Some shows will have presales right here through the fan site while others will be hosted by ticketmaster.
Ticketmaster presales, such as Southaven MS, will require the use of a presale password.
Mandy, did you pay for your membership or was it free?
you don't need a code if you are a fan club member - i think you just sign in and buy the tickets as being signed in
where did you find it?
I found it! Nevermind!
Street team members are NOT eligible to participate in Church Choir presales. Only members of the Choir are allowed to participate in presale opportunities.
Thank you so much!
I believe you have to be a memeber......

They use innovation and unique assembling techniques to make durable products that perform in the intended environment for the intended sport.")
- - Design philosophy (They are able to design a product one day, manufacture it the next day and then by the third day the product is being tested out on the trail or in the mountains.")
- - Long-standing practice of working with elite athletes such as Adam Campbell to develop and test new prototypes ("Engineered to meet the needs of the most demanding athlete. Activity-specific patterning ensures complete freedom of movement, and each product is critically scrutinized and detailed for the intended end use.")

o OKLAHOMA CE AGENCY Volume 15, Number 1 Winter 2011 31 LJ Construction of affordable housing development designed to revitalize JFK neighborhood in NE Oklahoma City Despite four years of financing setbacks, members of the Central Urban Development, Inc. did not give up on their goal of bringing affordable housing to the John F. Kennedy neighborhood located at Northeast 7th St. and Martin Luther King Blvd. in Oklahoma City. On November 15, about 200 people attended the groundbreaking ceremony to show their support for the project. "You can't possibly have an appreciation for what these folks have done for the past four years to get to this point," said Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency Executive Director Dennis Shock- ley in his address at the groundbreaking. CUDI applied for funding through OHFA multiple times when financial investors kept backing out of the project as a result of the housing crunch. OHFA originally awarded the JFK development $423,967 of Affordable Housing Tax Credits in May 2007. Then, in 2008 CUDI received additional tax credits of $42,397 that were made possible by the Housing and Economic Recovery Act. At the same time, OHFA reallocated its 2007 tax credits into 2008 tax credits in the amount of $466,364. When CUDI's financing sources changed again in 2009, it applied for and received Tax Credit Assistance Program and Section 1602 Exchange funds through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. However, through several transactions, CUDI returned all of its tax credits and TCAP allocations. Currently, $4,782,562 of Section 1602 Exchange funds remain in the project. "This project epitomizes the type of affordable housing deals ARRA funds were meant to save," Shockley said. "The money came at a time when Central Urban Development needed it the most." CUDI was established in 2001 as a subsidiary of the Northeast Church of Christ. It operates as a community-based, nonprofit organization formed to promote economic development. Rev. Amelious Crenshaw, pastor of the Northeast Church of Christ and chairman of CUDI, told (Continued on Page 2) Housing Connection Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency P.O.

Winter weather can bring many challenges, from gritting and gales to flooding and freezing roads.
We make every effort to help local people and businesses wherever we can, but it's everyone's responsibility to be prepared and to take action.
The following information is a summary of winter advice provided by various organisations, with links to more detailed guidance (where available).
This page includes the winter weather promise, quick-reference advice sheets, information about flooding, gritting, school closure updates and keeping warm, and some useful contacts too.
We hope it helps you, your family and your friends to stay safe and well this winter. (Back to Top)
Many parts of Worcestershire are at risk of flooding, either from surface water flooding (sometimes called 'flash flooding') or from rivers bursting their banks (which is called 'fluvial flooding').
Even if you believe that your home or business is in an area that does not traditionally flood, flooding can occur anywhere so you should still take steps to be prepared (businesses should ensure that they have a business continuity plan in place).
Detailed advice about what to do before, during and after flooding is available on our main flooding advice page.
Flood warnings are provided by the Environment Agency and weather alerts and warnings are issued by the Met Office.
The sheer volume of rain that can fall in a short space of time can sometimes make surface water flooding unavoidable. However, we try to make sure that water can drain away from our highways as quickly as possible.
If you know of a road where water drainage is a problem, please let us know by either reporting a highways defect online or by calling the Worcestershire Hub on 0845 607 2005.
Severn Trent Water are advising residents with frozen pipes to turn off the water supply at their household stop tap and wait until the water defrosts naturally.
If you think there may be a wider problem with the local water supply, check with neighbours before calling the Severn Trent Water Helpdesk on 0800 783 4444. For further information, visit the Severn Trent Water website. (Back to Top)
We do our best to keep the highways network running as effectively as we can during periods of ice and snow, primarily by gritting a number of key routes.
A primary network of 1,300km is treated in the first instance, with a secondary network treated when conditions require it and when resources allow.
Please plan your journeys carefully when there is a risk of ice or snow. A full map of the county's gritting routes is available to download. To see maps for individual districts, and for further information about gritting, please see our main gritting page. Further information is also on the Highways Agency website.
The best place to find advice about driving in severe weather conditions is the government's Direct Gov website. You can find information about planning journeys, making your journey and getting help if things go wrong on the Safety in extreme weather page. You can also see information on Worcestershire roadworks and road closures. Further information is also on the Highways Agency website.
Also see information on Park and Ride services. (Back to Top)

The best way to get the latest information about how winter weather conditions are affecting Worcestershire and the area where you live is to tune in to local radio stations. The following frequencies are for FM radios:
Save them to your radio pre-sets now if you can, or keep them handy for when you need them.
The homepage of our website features alerts whenever important information needs to be communicated. These alerts appear above the news stories on the right-hand side of the page. Our alerts will be used to provide information about severe weather warnings, roads affected by snow and ice, school closures (see below), library closures, museums, waste & recycling collections and disruption to public transport, among other things.
Our main Twitter account also allows us to communicate important messages. During snow and ice, it's often referred to as the 'Gritter Twitter'. To follow us, either visit www.twitter.com/worcscc or search for @worcscc on your Twitter application. (Back to Top)
It's very rare that we ask all schools to close because of severe weather - the decision about whether to remain open or not is predominantly taken by each individual school. For that reason, it can vary greatly from one part of the county to another.
The homepage of our website will include an alert whenever schools are affected by severe weather, which will be updated regularly with the latest information that schools provide to us (look our for alerts above the news stories on the right-hand side of the page). You can also link directly to the school closures for today's closed schools or for tomorrow's closed schools web pages.
Another source of up-to-date information about school closures are the BBC Hereford and Worcester and Free Radio radio stations, which lists all individual schools affected at regular intervals. The FM frequencies for BBC Hereford & Worcester are 96, 104 or 104.4, while Free Radio is on 102.8. (Back to Top).
Buses and bus routes can easily be effected by bad weather. Services effected will be published on the website homepage as well as further information published in more details on the bus service travel news web page.
The homepage of our website will also include an alert whenever services including Libraries, Waste & Recycling Collections and Museums are affected by severe weather, which will be updated regularly with the latest information that the services provide to us (look our for alerts above the news stories on the right-hand side of the page).

You may have heard of the Warmer Worcestershire website, where you can see a thermal map of the county and discover how much heat is being lost from your home.
It also contains information about grants and offers available to help you to keep warm when the worst of the winter weather starts to bite.
A simple tip to help you, or your family and friends, to stay warm is to eliminate draughts and wasted heat by installing a cheap, easy-to-fix brush or PVC seal on your exterior doors. Letterboxes and keyholes should be covered too. (Back to Top)
Here at Worcestershire County Council, we work with a wide range of partners to prepare for winter weather and we all act together to respond when events occur.
Our partners include the police, the fire and rescue service, the county's six district councils, NHS Worcestershire and many more. The group that links everyone together is the West Mercia Local Resilience Forum.
You can be assured that all of the different organisations communicate with each other and make their plans together to provide the best services possible for you, your families and friends in Worcestershire. (Back to Top)
