This page describes what types of credentials we evaluate, how we evaluate them, how transfer credit may be used toward our certificates and degrees, and how to transfer to a university. You may review the entire text, or select a topic:
Prospective and current students must be aware that some of EvCC's policies and practices may be different than those of other colleges and universities. If you are planning to transfer to another college or university, it is IMPORTANT that you check with an advisor at that institution to determine your transfer status.
Early planning is necessary if you desire an evaluation of your previous coursework for advising or financial aid purposes, or if you are seeking transfer information from or to another college. To request a credit evaluation of previous coursework that you have completed, you must complete and submit a Transfer Credit Evaluation Request Form.
EvCC considers credit from the following sources, in descending order to applicability:
Please direct your questions to Wendy Wong, Credential Evaluator, in the Enrollment Services Office, Parks Student Union, Room 201 at firstname.lastname@example.com
Credit earned through EvCC courses are the first source of credit used to meet the requirements of EvCC certificates and degrees. This includes credit under our Tech Prep and College in the High School programs and some other articulated programs. EvCC also provides the opportunity to challenge EvCC courses for those students who demonstrate that they have the knowledge and skills equivalent to a course. EvCC credit is generally the most easily applicable to certificate degree requirements.
An official credit evaluation is done based on an official transcript from each institution you may have previously attended. (An unofficial evaluation may be done based on unofficial transcripts, but will not be noted on your record.) Generally, the following limits are observed:
Credit from regionally accredited colleges and universities may be applied toward any of our certificates and degrees, meeting either requirements or electives, at the discretion of the credential evaluator and/or program advisor.
Washington's community and technical colleges offer reciprocity to students transferring within the state's system, who are pursuing a Direct Transfer Agreement (DTA) degree. Students who complete distribution requirements for a degree at one college will have met those same requirements for the same degree if they transfer to another community or technical college in Washington State.
Students must initiate the review process and be prepared to provide necessary documentation. Please note: this should only occur after an initial credit evaluation has been completed and if there remains some question as to the applicability of transfer courses. For complete information, students should contact Enrollment Services.
EvCC utilizes guidelines suggested by the National Council for Foreign Credential Evaluation in accepting and applying credit from non-US institutions.
Contact Wendy Wong, Credential Evaluator at email@example.com for more information for international credential evaluation. Students must provide their official credentials and an evaluation of those credentials from an approved foreign evaluation agency. Download for more information on credentials and evaluation.
EvCC follows recommendations made by the American Council on Education when evaluating military training and education records. Please submit the appropriate record for evaluation. Each branch of the military has a different service center holding your training and education records. Upon written request by you, they will send a copy to us. The Enrollment Services Office has a list of the locations where you may write for a copy of your record. Active Duty and Reserve Sailors and Marines, and Sailors and Marines who separated or retired after October 1, 1999, may request their SMART record by going to https://www.navycollege.navy.mil/ or find the form available through EvCC's Enrollment Services Office, or go to the Navy College Center on Marine View Drive in Everett.
A maximum of 60 credits for military training and education may be applied toward our certificates, Associate in Technical Arts, Associate in Fine Arts and Associate in Arts and Science – Option I as meeting requirements. A maximum of 60 ungraded credits may be applied toward the Associate in General Studies. For the associate degrees desinated as university transfer, military credit, with the exception of limited Physical Education credit, is applicable only as "B" list electives.
EvCC's faculty have reviewed the AP, CLEP and IB programs, and established the score that must be earned (or higher) in order to earn credit. View the list of acceptable AP and CLEP exams.
A maximum of 60 AP, CLEP and IB credits may be applied toward several of our degrees, meeting either requirements or electives, at the discretion of the credential evaluator and/or program advisor. In the case of the associate degrees designated as university transfer degrees, AP and IB credit may be accepted as general education requirements or "A" list electives. CLEP credit is only accepted as "B" list electives.
Transcripts from schools which are not regionally accredited, but are accredited by national agencies such as the Accrediting Commission on Independent Colleges and Schools, the Accrediting Commission on Trade and Technical Schools, Distance Education and Training Council and the Accrediting Association of Bible Colleges, may be reviewed and considered for credit. In such cases, we ask that you please supply us with a copy of the catalog and course descriptions as well as an official transcript; additional course descriptions may be requested. Generally, courses which are similar to those offered at EvCC may be considered.
A maximum of 60 credits for courses completed at nationally-accredited post-secondary schools may be applied toward our certificates, Associate in Technical Arts, Associate in General Studies, Associate in Fine Arts and Associate in Arts and Science – Option I degrees as meeting either requirements or electives. Credit is applicable only to the "B" list electives (15 credits) for the Associate in Arts and Science – DTA and Associate in Business, and may not be used in the Associate of Science degree.
Educational and training experiences that occur through company training programs or through professional institutes may be reviewed for credit. Types of training can vary widely, for example: management, police, fire, manufacturing, apprenticeship, and aviation. To have your training reviewed you must submit official and/or original records, as well as supporting documentation that includes the following: content, level, time period, hours, location, method of instruction, instructors, method of evaluation and achievement. Since training programs do not generally yield a transcript that contains all of this material, it is your responsibility to gather as much information as possible and submit it. In some cases, certificates (such as APICS, WA State Criminal Justice Commission, and A&P) may be submitted. EvCC's evaluation process relies on information that supports an evaluation that the training or certificate is comparable to college-level programs; faculty evaluate the documentation to determine the comparability. The fee for the evaluation of these documents is $30, and the process demands extensive documentation from the student. (Fees are subject to change)
A maximum of 60 credits for training and certificate programs schools may be applied toward our certificates, Associate in Technical Arts, Associate in Fine Arts and Associate in Arts and Science – Option I degrees as meeting either requirements or electives. Credit is applicable only to the "B" list electives (15 credits) for the Associate in Arts and Science – DTA and Associate in Business, and may not be used in the Associate of Science degree. A maximum of 45 credits may be used toward the Associate in General Studies.
EvCC has three forms of Prior Learning Assessment (PLA): Course Challenge, Professional Certificate Review, and Portfolio Evaluation.
Course Challenge: ($215) Students who have significant learning from training programs or life experience may find it more expedient to consider course challenge. For more information, contact our Credit Evaluators in Enrollment Services.
Approved Certificates and Training Programs: ($35) EvCC has reviewed certain professional programs which are recognized regionally/nationally. These include: Para-professional Education Experience, A&P Licenses, APICS, Fire Fighting Certificates, Dept. of Justice Training Certificates, WA State Criminal Justice Commission and Emergency Management Training (EMT) Certificates. Clear criteria have been established for assigning credits for those programs. There is a $30 fee to transcribe those credits. For university transfer degrees, these credits are applicable only as "B" list electives (15 credit maximum). For EvCC's non-transfer programs (Associate in Technical Arts, Associate in Fine Arts, Associate in Arts and Science - Option I): A maximum of 60 credits may be used to meet program requirements or electives. For an Associate in General Studies: A maximum of 45 ungraded credits may be applied. Please be aware that some other colleges and universities not accept these credits.
Portfolio Review ($100 base fee + $25 for each credit you wish to pursue, whether awarded or not. Example: 5 credits=$225). Through a Portfolio review, you may be able to receive college credit for knowledge you have gained outside an accredited higher education institution. This can include (but is not limited to, previous experiences as an employee, business owner, information technology or computer specialist, management, manufacturing, apprenticeships, skilled volunteer or hobbyist. These experiences may have taught you skills which are comparable or equivalent to credited courses offered at EvCC. This is a complex process that can require the student to document a great deal of information. Contact a Credential Evaluator for more information about this process.
To start the PLA process contact Wendy Wong, Credential Evaluator, in Enrollment Services at firstname.lastname@example.com, or 425-388-9015, and ask about PLA. Fees are charged for participation in this program.
Note, in some cases students who have significant learning from training programs or life experience may find it more expedient to consider course challenges. Please ask about what the best option is for you.
EvCC Certificate and Degree Requirements
You can review our curriculum guides online to view the specific requirements for our various certificate and degree programs, or view the information about applying to graduate from EvCC.
At least 90 credits must be earned toward an Associate degree. Required credits for a certificate vary. For a degree, at least 30 credits must be earned as EvCC credit, with a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0. EvCC credit is earned through one of the following ways:
The Enrollment Services Office provides written transcript evaluations for admitted students who wish to apply previously earned credits toward an EvCC certificate or degree. A Transfer Credit Evaluation Request form is available online or from Enrollment Services. Complete the form and attach your official records/transcripts, or assure that your official records/transcripts are already on file in the Enrollment Services Office. Please note, official records/transcripts must be sealed in their original envelope.
If credit is awarded, these credits will be listed on the lower portion of your EvCC transcript. The transfer credits will be grouped as a numeric figure and will be identified by the origin of said credits. Please note, that credits earned and transferred to EvCC will never become official EvCC classes. Classes and credit earned at other institutions will always remain classes and credit at the originating institution, only the numeric figure and institution of transfer will appear on your EvCC transcript.
If you are planning to transfer, make sure you speak with an advisor. Our Advisors can assist you with planning and will work to make your transition a smooth one. No matter which college or university you are considering, you can benefit from the wise choices you make while attending EvCC.
Each university will make the final decision on what courses they will accept from EvCC. Most courses numbered 100 or above will be considered transferable as meeting either requirements or electives, though some specialized vocational courses may not be accepted. In some cases, courses with a grade lower than a C will not be accepted. Generally other colleges and universities do not accept transfer credit that we have accepted, since they want to review it or reject it under their own policies.
If you transfer with the AAS-DTA degree you may enjoy some of the benefits of "block transfer". This is fully described in the Associate in Arts and Sciences – Direct Transfer . That guide lists the schools in Washington and Oregon that accept the degree as meeting their lower division general education requirements, awarding a block of 90 transfer credits. In general, universities do not do a "course-by-course" analysis of the courses used to earn the degree. However, the allowance for using non-traditional credit (options 3-8) in the DTA degree may be limited by some universities.
EvCC has many other special agreements with other colleges and universities for smooth transfer, including:

Debate surrounding the new hit song highlights the need for strong copyright protections, says Adli Law Group.
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Provocative pop megastar Lady Gaga is facing a storm of controversy this week over her newly released single with R&B singer R. Kelly. The song, titled "Do What U Want", is drawing increasing criticism from fans for sounding suspiciously similar to "The Deep", a track on emerging dance-pop duo Dance With The Dead's debut album, set for release tomorrow. Both songs share the same musical key, and feature a virtually identical pulsating synth riff and drum pattern. Both are approximately 97 beats per minute, giving them the exact same driving dance rhythm. And though each song ultimately travels in a different musical direction, it seems entirely plausible that whoever programmed Miss Gaga's new hit took a little too much creative license in borrowing from the music of Dance With The Dead.
Many artists and inventors shy away from copyrighting their material because they feel overwhelmed about the complexities of the process. Unfortunately, the entertainment industry is rife with examples like the one Lady Gaga is presently involved in, illustrating the vital need for career-minded creative professionals to protect their work by hiring a reputable entertainment lawyer in Los Angeles. The City of Angels is famous for being a city where dreams are made, but perceptive artists will additionally back up their work by utilizing the expert services of Adli Law Group P.C.

The Terry family got the most special Christmas present yesterday: their first child.
Caroline Jade Terry was born at 2:47 on Christmas morning, weighing 7 pounds and 9 ounces.
We learned Caroline was placed into the NIC unit after a stressful birth, but we found out she is doing great.
New mom Holly Terry told News 5 they are already noticing Caroline will have a big personality and her new baby girl is ready to be out of the unit. "She's showing signs that she's going to be feisty. I think she is ready to go home. She's pulled out her OG tube and 2 IVs so far," said Terry.
Terry told News 5 that holiday birthdays run in the family, saying her husband was born on Thanksgiving.

MORAVIA, IOWA -- The Appanoose County Sheriff's Office released this video Wednesday evening regarding the house fire south of Moravia.
The first was discovered around 10:30 a.m. Wednesday morning.
The other was found at 2 p.m. Wednesday afternoon.
The sheriff's office says the two bodies have been sent to the State Medical Examiner's Office for a positive identification and to determine the cause of death.
The victim's names are being withheld until they're positively identified.
According to Kyle Gorsch, who is with the State Fire Marshal's Office, no new information has been released to the public regarding the fire or the investigation.
Gorsch told KTVO that the cause of the fire is still under investigation.
Appanoose County Sheriff Gary Anderson told KTVO they received a 911 call just after 10:00 Tuesday night, reporting the explosion and that it was believed the residents were still in the home. The house was fully engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived, preventing them from entering to search for occupants.
A husband and wife, who were renting the home, were last seen about an hour earlier returning to the home. Sheriff Anderson says the occupants' vehicles have been accounted for and it's believed the couple was inside the residence at the time.

Nulli - Lending a helping hand for flood recovery in Calgary
On June 21, 2013, Southern Alberta was hit with devastating floods – the impacts both financially and emotionally will be felt for years. Despite being a relatively small team, the flooding has impacted all of us at Nulli. Some of our colleagues were temporarily evacuated from their homes, seeking shelter with colleagues, friends or neighbours until the dangers had passed. Others had to stay evacuated until waters subsided, power was restored and cleaning out of contaminated belongings could be completed. Yet others have family and friends who have had their homes and possessions completely destroyed and live day-to-day while they wait on flood policy and recovery decisions to determine their next steps for getting themselves into a home.
Flooded Neighbourhood - Sunnyside
The magnitude of the destruction is overwhelming and it is hard to comprehend the amount of resources that will be required to rebuild. For many, the decision to rebuild or move out of flood prone areas will be uncertain for weeks to come as government guidelines and other factors come to fruition.

New York City Marathon Issues Post-Sandy Rules
New York - Mayor Michael Bloomberg is being roundly criticized for permitting the New York Marathon to take place this weekend while millions of the city's citizens still suffer from hardships brought on by Hurricane Sandy.
In an attempt to avoid confrontations between citizens and race participants, the New York Road Runners Club has issued nine special rules for this year's race:
- Looters have the right-of-way.
- Don't expect any police protection. The NYPD's next gas delivery is Tuesday.
- Using downed power lines to electrocute the competition is strongly discouraged.
- Be careful not to trip over the graves of any hurricane victims.
- There is a $10,000 reward for the runner who finds Donald Trump's hair piece in the storm rubble.
- Swimming is prohibited in the Queens Midtown Tunnel.
- Refreshment stations are limited, but you can have all the floodwater you can drink.
- Lookout for falling tree limbs and the mayor's plunging popularity.
- Run faster. That angry mob is gaining on you.

Cocopah will be SOLD with her cria until it is weaned, we will rebreed her to any of our males... including Aussie's REO Speedwagon, Ascent, Artic Phoenix, Artic Ice, or Artic Heinrich. So, you will get the breeding of your choice and Cocopah, and then her current cria will be returned to us when weaned, unless the new buyers would wish to buy him as well. It is that simple!!So this would be a good chance to get a foundation female, good milk producer, fantastic mom with her son her 6th cria! Cocopah weaned her pattern cria and is due any day with our very own Ausable Valley's Ascent. Ascent is an 1Multi-Champion and "Brown Huacaya Male of the Year"! His latest Blue Ribbon and Championship was at 6 years old from the 2012 Nationals!!! Ascent has many award winning cria on the ground and a proven track record for fineness density and crimp! He and Cocopah should make a great pairing for the Spring 2013 crias! Cocopah has delivered a multi pattern 20lb. boy on New Years Eve 2011. And he is quite a looker…a great pattern on him. WOW last year a Christmas cria, this year a New Years Eve cria…She loves those holidays. For 2 years straight, Cocopah had been bred to Fossil Ridge's Rumaki, and delivered 2 beautiful boys…one is owned by Meadowpointe Alpacas, and this past December 2010, she delivered to us a 16.4lb. baby boy on Christmas morning and we could not be more thrilled! We named him of course, Saint Nicholas, Both mom and baby are doing great. Cocopah was our first purchase in the Alpaca industry. Her gentle disposition and her ability to produce 3, almost 4 award winning crias is her greatest strengths. She is a great mother with averaging birth weights of 17.2lbs. and lots of milk to feed her crias. She has very dense, fine fleece and just all around a beautiful girl!

And it does not add a dime to the deficit, right ?
Obama, you already did that with TARP, didn´t you? Obama, will you be available for the GAO auditors to examine those TARP expenditures next week? Taxpayers need to know that their TARP money went to roads and bridges.
DOD just within the last couple of hours announced there will be furloughs. Come on RNC, fight!
The remaining ten billion would go to the national infrastructure bank where it will be laundered and used to finance Democrats. 2 billion will be used for Mooch´s lobster habit.
Isn´t that what the fuel taxes are for?
He wants to build a 4 lane super highway direct from Mexico to Chicago to facilitate all his new voters!!1Art
The sight of Barry Obama with a chromed shovel, hard hat with presidential seal and mom jeans turns on both Chrissy Matthews and Reggie Love. "We just love it when he pretends to push the shovel into the ground. So Village People."The President to No Where wants to take us all there.
We need to maintain and improve our infrastructure. Just a couple of questions. How much of it is going to blue states and also how much is going to BHO donors? How was the $50 billion arrived at? Where will the $50 billion come from? Make up a list and send it to the House for line item approval.
Tell him to get a pick and shovel and build his own road. That way he would have no time left to spend the Country into oblivion.
Why not call it The WPA , FDR lives!
"Shovel-ready" jobs? The only thing that is "shovel-ready" from this Administration is all the BS they keep turning out.
These are the things that government is supposed to be doing -- the things that Barry said "you didn´t build". We raise enough revenue to pay for this hundreds of times over. But its all frittered away on social spending, which government should NOT be doing. We tax payers don´t object to paying our "fair share" for roads, when necessary, but to tell us we don´t pay our fair share and we "didn´t build that" when it comes to social spending is a slap in the face.
#5 Which has not been raised in over 20 years. Building roads/bridges cost more today than back then. Raising gas tax $.05 would not be a bad thing. In WY, a total RED state, just raised theirs $.10. What happened to ´no new taxes´?
That Keystone pipeline is shovel ready.And we should put $10b into a vaguely defined fund controlled by Obama and his cronies?
Call, call, call for Phillip Morr-rize.
We´ve all driven by roads and bridges under construction. Maybe 40 to 50 people max (all union) doing the actual work. Maybe Obama thinks we do these things like a 3rd world country. Road gangs building the whole thing with picks, shovels and wheelbarrows. The real winners are unions, equipment, concrete and steel companies (his donors).
There he goes again! ...The dem pols routinely divert taxpayer´s money from their taxpayer entrustd responsibilities of maintaining & upgrading America´s infrastructure, to instead, engrandizing their cronies & pet social manipulation projects. Then, when the infrastructure inevitably breaks down, the dem pols are eager to once again demand raising taxes in order to rebuild the crumbling roads, bridges, etc, ...& sewer system as is the case in KC. Yada, yada, yada, the beat goes on ad nauseum.This routine dem ploy to raise taxes is their party´s standard circular tax policy, -their modus opperandi over the years, due to their dishonorable, sometimes dishonest, and totally irresponsible misplaced priorities. The dem pols simply ignore their own oaths of office because their priorities for getting elected are skewed from the git/go. America the Beautiful and that for which it stands deserves far better!dem pols have no shame
If funds used to purchase all those signs that said "Stimulus at Work" perhaps the infrastructure and roads would have been improved.
I bet the projects are all "Shovel Ready" just as much as they were four years ago.By the way - what happened to the stimulus money King Obama was going to spend on "America´s Infrastructure"?
More spending, higher taxes on to the great Oconomy
Wasn´t the last 787 BILLION in addition to the various highway bills supposed to handle that?
Hold your horses, Barry. How much is collected via the gas tax and what is it being spent on?
and all will be done by union labor
Since the Chinese are providing the money, do they get to design-in the weak spots and shaped charge mounting brackets for WW III?
What the hell? I thought the $787 billion Stimulus was supposed to take care of roads and bridges?
The Obamboozler´s gotta be wondering "Good God, what does it take to break the bank in this den of dastardly Capitalism!"
If Obe would get his butt out of the clouds and take a real bus trip he would soon learn that road and bridges along with choo choo train rails are not pick and shovel ready jobs.Let us suggest the one highway from northern to mid Idaho through constricting mountain passes as his moving classroom.Of course he could try southern Idaho areas too where Bannock county alone has 42 mountain peaks.If he is lucky he can experience a rock or snow slide along the w ay.
He did the same in 2008 with the stimulas funds & all we got were highway signs...obama signs..
More graft money for his union friends!Not one more penny!He needs to be called out on this!
We don´t need to spend $50B on roads and bridges. Who in the hell can afford the gas to go anywhere.
If the Republicans capitulate and the sequester does not occur, then I´m sorry to say I will not be voting for Republicans on any level -local, state or National. My Republican Congressman won´t be getting my vote even if he is against the capitulation. What´s the point if the party has feet of clay?

Fashion Quotient with Environmental Quotient
Fashion Quotient (FQ) with Environmental Quotient (EQ) was the theme pavilion set up by AEPC's Institute of Apparel Management (IAM). The 36 square meter area displayed changes in apparel design in terms of fabrics, textures, silhouettes, design vocabulary and revival of textile art.
Vintage fabrics and design depicted the fashion quotient. Environmental quotient involves the use of eco-friendly fabrics, dyes and recycling aspects that are gaining importance worldwide. Fashion industry has to be related to environmental norms. Many units have started using sustainable eco-friendly fabrics along with the use of eco-friendly processes.
Sustainable fabrics preserve the environment and human health. Lots of development has taken place in respect to dyes, chemicals and auxiliaries in the textile industry.
Many big international brands like C&A, GAP, H&M are procuring safe fabrics out of India which has resulted in good demand for these products overseas, thereby giving boost to Indian country economy.
The pavilion showed how fashion, technology and environment govern the product development in apparel industry. IAM students had developed a collection of 25 to 30 garments on the same theme.

German Shepherd Dog > Pedigree Research (10 replies)

http://www.pedigreedatabase.com/german_shepherd_dog/dog.html?id=683552 Can any of the more experienced members tell me a bit about the dogs in this girls lines? |
by THEskridge on 04 August 2012 - 21:08 |
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=161964610507417&set=a.106806232689922.4903.106800742690471&type=1&relevant_count=1 I believe she was born in 2010 Havoc von Hayden as a pup... We own a von Hayden shepherd he is 14 weeks old |
by WanderLust on 14 September 2012 - 17:28 |
How is your pup coming along? |
by THEskridge on 15 September 2012 - 02:59 |
He's great...Intelligent...Stubborn as all heck..so far so good in the health dept..growing like a weed..he's a little over 5 months now. Havoc is no longer available my co-worker now has her as of Thursday on a Co-own atleast until she has one litter. Very friendly with people and other dogs. There are other von Hayden pups available for $850. the breeder had the misfortune of a tornado hitting their home. Everyone including dogs are ok but now they are attempting to re-home the pups. |
by WanderLust on 15 September 2012 - 03:20 |
I'm considering one of those pups. Twila. She's one of 4 I'm looking at. Havoc while a nice girl, just wasn't for me. |
by hexe on 15 September 2012 - 06:43 |
Just be forewarned that it's more likely than not that if you purchase one of the pups, you will have to wait for the dog's registration papers. This is nothing against the dogs they breed, but if you do a search on the kennel in the forums here, you'll find several posts of complaints that registrations are taking too long to arrive after the pup has been paid for and taken home. There always seems to be a fresh disaster there that interferes with getting the litter registered... |
by THEskridge on 15 September 2012 - 09:10 |
Keep in mind the Health Guarantee, if there is an issue with the dog they will replace the dog however you have to return the original dog to them. You can try getting that changed in the contract. Poor Klaus von Hayden was diagnosed with hip dysplasia at 6 months old (Valla von Hayden / Grand vom Haus Kaiser) He is a stunning dog the entire situation is heartbreaking. I'm still waiting for paperwork we brought our pup home the beginning of June (they did have their house destroyed by a tornado on June 29th) You will not get full registration until you title the dog or certify it in Police. I don't think the Dam or the Sire of my pup have any Schutzhund titles, they are trained in Police. |

Whoa, she reserves full registration on the dogs until titled?! That would be a no go for me. When I buy something I get the full papers upfront. I don't need any monkey business to mess around with in the future. I'll have to confirm this issue as I haven't seen any contracts yet. Haven't even decided if I'm taking the puppy. |

Uh..... why would anyone buy a dog from a breeder who requires the dog is returned in the event a replacement is necessary? That's to the breeder's advantage, not the buyer's. |

The frog was right: It's not easy being green.
In this era of escalating energy costs, every penny conserved through the avoidance of needless spending or consumption grows increasingly valuable. Alas, getting there means passing through a gauntlet of technological options, sticker shock, IT resistance, and cultural disinclination. Ironically, it's often not the wallet driving the push toward green, but the dirty little secret no one likes to acknowledge — that the public relations benefit of touting one's energy efficiency efforts can easily outweigh the actual savings accrued. Fortunately, that's changing.
"This is no longer just about shutting off lights or turning down the air conditioning, it's about the very kind of lights being installed and what kind of intelligence is being used to determine when a space is in use or when it should be shut down completely," says Jay Rogina, principal at Spinitar, an A/V and communications integrator based in La Mirada, Calif. "Organizations are quick to get excited about going green and saving money, but they don't understand that they've got to spend a lot up front to get the return on investment over several years."
Lighting, where an incandescent bulb costs just a few dollars compared with a commercial-grade LED replacement lamp that can exceed $90, is a prime example, Rogina says. "The up-front cost of LED lighting adds up quickly when you are retrofitting hundreds or thousands of fixtures. We need pricing to fall more in line." Not to mention that facilities managers and CFOs expect to see ROI achieved within their lifetimes.
Efficiencies can be attained through building anew, retrofitting the existing infrastructure or playing smarter with the cards already dealt. Opinions and solutions are equally varied.
As energy codes and guidelines grow increasingly restrictive, designers no longer have the luxury of turning to yesteryear's design philosophies. "You cannot simply dim the lights or alter the temperature to meet energy saving mandates," says Fred Bargetzi, vice president of Technology at solutions manufacturer Crestron. "The only way to build a truly efficient building that will meet energy requirements today and be adaptable to meet future requirements is to take a holistic view of the entire building's control and automation."
Like it or not, making that happen is going to depend upon design teams including the control and automation system supplier in a design assist role as a partner from the earliest planning stages. Currently, when design teams pursue a "three bids and a cloud of dust" procurement approach, they get disparate systems that often cannot be integrated, Bargetzi says. This type of system offers minimal expandability or protection of the owner's investment in controls and automation.

'We miss her greatly': Co-workers remember slain Pittsfield Township woman
Colleagues are mourning the loss of Katherine Kellogg Porter, who was found dead from multiple stab wounds Friday in her Pittsfield Township home.
Greg Stout, vice president of client services at Advantage Computing Systems, said Porter worked as a senior systems analyst for the company. Her death was a great loss for her co-workers at Advantage, where worked for 13 years.
"We miss her greatly, both personally and professionally," he said.
Pittsfield Township police were called to Porter's home in the 4700 block of Hickory Pointe Boulevard at 4:45 p.m. Friday to check on her. She was found dead and her 44-year-old husband, Jean-Pierre Trias, was arrested.
Courtesy of the WCSO
Police said earlier this week Porter died from multiple stab wounds. Trias has been charged with one count of open murder in the case and is being held in the Washtenaw County Jail without bond.
Funeral arrangements for Porter are unclear at this point. Several local funeral homes reached by AnnArbor.com Tuesday afternoon said they were not handling her services.
Porter and Trias were married in Philadelphia in August 1995, but records show Trias filed for divorce from Porter in October 2010. According to the filing, the couple had not been living together for a month at that point and they had separate addresses listed in the filing.
Records show Porter denied the marriage was damaged beyond repair, despite a break down. On Nov. 4, 2010, the couple signed a document asking for the case to be dismissed without prejudice and the proceedings were never completed.
To this point, Pittsfield Township police have not said whether there was a history of domestic violence in the relationship. A search of court records found no criminal charges filed in Washtenaw County against either Porter or Trias prior to Porter's death.
Barbara Niess-May, executive director of Safehouse in Ann Arbor, called Porter's death a tragedy.
She encouraged anyone who is in a violent domestic relationship or anyone who believes they know someone in a violent domestic relationship to speak up.
Safehouse responds to approximately 1,700 domestic violence incidents in Washtenaw County every year. After every domestic violence incident in the county, police agencies contact Safehouse and a representative responds in person to the scene, hospital or jail - wherever they're needed. Niess-May said they assist police in any way they can in investigations.
Tragic situations can be avoided if just one person speaks out about something they see or they're experiencing, she said.
For more information on Safehouse, visit its website. Anyone who would like to contact Safehouse directly can call the 24-hour hotline at 734-995-5444.

Liberator Wing Toy Mount Review by Hotmama
Can't Get Enough of the Liberator Wing!
After trying out the Liberator Wing, I wonder how I've ever gotten along with out it! The cushion is firm enough to get a great rhythm going and the dildo (I also purchased the Liv vibrator by Lelo) stays right where you want it…leaving your hands free for other things! It was one of the most intense orgasms I've ever had. It's been a wonderful solo experience and now I can't wait to try it with my husband.
Liberator Wing Toy Mount Review by sg69
Liberator Wing is a Great Product!
My Husband and I really loved this product, but we do have one cautionary note for people considering a purchase. Make sure you have a large enough vibe/dildo! We have the Lelo Liv, and while we do love it, it is just too small to get the job done with the Liberator Wing. You need something longer to get decent penetration, and you need something with a larger diameter to prevent it shifting around in the wing.
Liberator Wing Toy Mount Review by Enigma
Liberator Wing is Awesome!
This cushion enabled me to have the most fabulous orgasm while riding my dildo. I was able to have hands free and loved the firmness of the cushion and the ability for my toy to be stationary so I can position myself and ride it the way that I liked. I HIGHLY recommend this for anyone/couple for fun. EXCELLENT product!
Liberator Wing Toy Mount Review by NaughtyDaine
Liberator Wing is For Me!
My husband's been traveling a lot so I bought this Liberator Wing for me. OMG! I put our toddler to bed and disappear down into the garage (where we have all our Liberators) for fun. Just so soft and comfortable and I can use my hands all over my body in front of a mirror. If you're working the 'vibe/dildo sticking out' you need a reasonably sized one–I've got the Lelo Elise (another thing I highly recommend). Make sure you're well-lubricated the first time (but you'll have such a blast that first time, that you'll lubricate really well for the subsequent ones!!). I had planned to stash this away and hide it from my husband but he surprised me on it by coming home a couple of days early! In somewhat of a Liberator-fest, he pulled me off, strapped me on all fours on our Black Label Liberator cube, spanked me, then put me over our Axis for 'backdoor.' Thanks, Liberator, for another great product and all the orgasms!
Liberator Wing Toy Mount Review by NormalGuy
Liberator Wing is Excellent for Both!
Purchased this Liberator Wing as a Christmas present for both of us. Don't be intimidated by this thing guys. This has encouraged the most intimate and hot sex between the both of us. I look forward to using this thing every week. If you want to unleash your wife's most primal instincts this is the way to go!

Wood County authorities say several homes in the Town of Saratoga, south of Wisconsin Rapids, were damaged in Sunday night's storm.
The Saratoga Town hall was set up as a command center for emergency responders to gather and await orders. A medical helicopter and EMTs also were on standby in the area for any serious injuries. Fortunately, no calls of life threatening injuries came in.
A horse farm in Saratoga was among those properties damaged. Owner Debi Clark tells NewsChannel 7 she watched from her window as the roof of her barn and much of her property start flying around. One of her horses was found in a nearby woods with a minor injury, but is expected to be okay.

For private jet travelers intent on satisfying their own "urge for going," winter flights south often begin with a quick, cold dash from the limo or terminal across a wind-blown, icy ramp to a toasty preheated cabin.

Is this all they got? The commodities markets sent a strong message to China: In your war on inflation, you are losing terribly. One must wonder if the People's Bank of China is a little bit embarrassed about the way the markets just laughed in their face after global commodity markets shrugged off China's feeble attempt to slow inflation by increasing its one-year yuan lending rate to 6.06% from 5.81%, and the one-year yuan deposit rate to 3.00% from 2.75%. The markets seem to be wondering if this is this some kind of a joke.
In fact instead of commodity bulls fleeing in fear after the Chinese rate increases, they used the tiny rate increase as a rallying point. It seems the lack of courage and foresight by the Chinese government is sending a signal to the market that China does not have what it takes to cool inflation. China is refusing to admit the obvious that their currency manipulation is feeding this inflationary spiral and that it will end badly unless they have the guts to do what is necessary to deflate this bubble. They need to allow their currency to float or at the very least, quit these small incremental rate increases and shock and awe the market with a dramatic increase.
If the Chinese allowed their currency to trade in a free and open market, there would have been no need for a QE2, an act that is accelerating emerging market inflation. While China has been siphoning off growth by their unfair currency advantage, Ben Bernanke said enough is enough. Now it is up to the Chinese to put their inflationary fiscal house in order.
Yet sometimes, when living inside a bubble, it's hard to see what is obvious to the people outside the bubble. The bubble is steadily growing bigger and bigger and therefore the burst will deafen and devastate when it pops.
Gold and silver in particular, seemed to have been emboldened by China's latest lame inflation fighting attempt. Oh sure, gold did get some support on the news that J.P. Morgan will allow gold to be posted as collateral on some transactions, but that of course would not explain why silver took off as well. Industrial metals like copper initially took a hit but came roaring back.
Wheat prices did not care that China raised rates. They did care about what the United Nations said about what a severe drought in China could do to global supply. The UN's Food and Agriculture Organization, or FAO, warned that China's main winter wheat region could pose a serious threat to output saying that 5.16 million acres out of about 14 million could be lost as the lack of rain and snow cover could damage the dormant seeds. When you have shortages of high quality wheat, it is unlikely that a rate increase is going to stop the frenzy.
The truth is that China is losing its battle with inflation because they are being outgunned and refuse to use the weapons at their disposal that could win this war. They are making the mistake that many other growing economies have made in the past and that is to not want to have the discipline to say no to growth and expansion. China is being intoxicated with their enormous growth, but if they don't start to moderate it, they are going to have one heck of a bad hangover.
Oil prices were a bit more complex in its reaction to China's rate increase. Initially oil prices fell on the announcement yet came back in part because of rising gasoline prices. Still the concerns about Egypt and now pirates may play a pivotal role in prices.
Also perhaps some verification on "Twilight in the Dessert" because of a Wikileaks document, quoted on the Guardian Newspaper stating that Saudi Arabia's oil reserves were overstated by 300 billion barrels. I can hear the peak oil believers all over the globe say, "See, I told you so". The Guardian says that the U.S. fears that Saudi Arabia may not have enough reserves to prevent oil prices escalating. They say Washington needs to take seriously a warning from a senior Saudi government oil executive that the kingdom's crude oil reserves may have been overstated by as much as 300bn barrels, nearly 40%.
The official, Sadad al-Husseini, a geologist and former head of exploration at the Saudi oil monopoly Aramco, supposedly met the U.S. Consul General in Riyadh in November 2007 and told the U.S. diplomat that Aramco's 12.5m barrel-a-day capacity was needed to keep a lid on prices and could not be reached. The Guardian says that according to the cables, which date between 2007-09, Husseini said Saudi Arabia might reach an output of 12m barrels a day in 10 years but before then - possibly as early as 2012 - global oil production would have hit its highest point. This crunch point is known as "peak oil". Husseini said that at that point Aramco would not be able to stop the rise of global oil prices because the Saudi energy industry had overstated its recoverable reserves to spur foreign investment. He argued that Aramco had badly underestimated the time needed to bring new oil on tap.
One cable said that, "the crux of the issue is twofold. First, it is possible that Saudi reserves are not as bountiful as sometimes described, and the timeline for their production not as unrestrained as Aramco and energy optimists would like to portray." It went on: "In a presentation, Abdallah al-Saif, current Aramco senior vice-president for exploration, reported that Aramco has 716bn barrels of total reserves, of which 51% are recoverable, and that in 20 years Aramco will have 900bn barrels of reserves." Al-Husseini disagrees with this analysis, believing Aramco's reserves are overstated by as much as 300bn barrels.
In his view once 50% of original proven reserves has been reached ... a steady output in decline will ensue and no amount of effort will be able to stop it. He believes that what will result is a plateau in total output that will last approximately 15 years followed by decreasing output. The U.S. Consul then told Washington: "While al-Husseini fundamentally contradicts the Aramco company line, he is no doomsday theorist. His pedigree, experience and outlook demand that his predictions be thoughtfully considered." Yet the Saudi official (al-Husseini) named in the Wikileaks document told Dow Jones Newswires Wednesday that he was misquoted by the U.K. by the newspaper. Peak oil folks say, sure, right.
Yesterday, we had reports of a sit in strike when 6,000 port workers were emboldened by the winds of change. Yet Reuters says that strikes by workers in companies in the Suez Canal zone will not affect Suez Canal operations and movement of ships, quoting a senior official. "The strike by companies will not affect the operation of the Suez Canal and movement of ships. These companies work in areas far from the canal zone and movement of ships," the official told Reuters. Around 3,000 workers in companies owned by the Canal authorities and based in Ismailia and Suez had gone on strike on Tuesday over pay and working conditions. Workers in canal-owned companies in Port Said will go on.
Pirates again! Bloomberg News reports that a 1,100-foot supertanker carrying Kuwaiti oil to the U.S. was seized by pirates off eastern Oman today, the first hijacking of a vessel that size since April. The Irene SL has 17 Filipinos, seven Greeks and a Georgian on board, according to a statement on the website of the European Union's anti-piracy force. It is carrying 270,266 metric tons of oil destined for the Gulf of Mexico, Enesel SA, its owner, said in an e-mailed statement. The tonnage being held is equal to 1.98 million barrels, according to a calculator on the website of the Energy Information Administration. Kuwait crude sells for $84.84 a barrel when being shipped to the U.S., valuing the cargo at about $168 million, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
The calls for $100.00 a barrel in the near term are starting to fade away as many who made those calls are now backing off those predictions. If you were playing for $100 a barrel, maybe it's time you change strategies and adapt to the current market conditions.
