Squidoo? Sounds Fishy To Me
You can create and update as many lenses as you like for free and in fact, they positively encourage you to update old lenses.
While you are working on a lens, you get a green meter on the right hand side which lets you know what else you need to do.

Just Putting Out Feelers: Looking For A Writing Alternative
Blog writing can be lonely, but Squidoo encourages you to read other people's lenses, link to them and comment on them.
You can "squid like" someone's lens and they will often like yours back or send you a message or a comment -nice!
And every time you do, you earn some points.
Points for Articles?
For example, the first time you publish a lens, or squid like a lens, you'll get some points; or when you hit certain milestones such as 5 or 10 lenses published.
However, if you involve yourself in the community there do seem to be rewards.
They even interviewed me!

Commercial furnaces are available with heat outputs ranging from 35,000 Btu/hr to more than 400,000 Btu/hr.
Some furnaces act as part of a ducted system while others act as un-ducted space heaters.
Ducted heating systems include:
Gas-Fired Commercial Furnaces
Horizontal Gas-Fired Duct Furnaces
Packaged Heating and Cooling Units - the common rooftop unit
Un-ducted heaters include:
Floor furnace – usually used as large area heaters
Unit heaters – excellent for heating large open areas
Rooftop natural gas heater units and high efficiency rooftop units
Conventional gas-fired rooftop space heaters are usually mid-efficiency units with efficiency ratings in the range of 78 to 82%. They are usually purchased with air conditioning units to provide both space heating and cooling in one system. Heating capacities range from under 100,000 Btu/hr to over 500,000 Btu/hr.
A new generation of High Efficiency Gas Rooftop Units that employ modulating and condensing technology is now available.
The modulating feature can provide a small amount of heat while handling large amounts of outdoor air – a feature that will become more valuable in coming years, as the requirement for more outdoor air ventilation is expected to increase.
Condensing gas rooftop units are the most energy efficient heaters available, with seasonal efficiencies between 89% and 97%.
They include a secondary heat exchanger to extract most of the heat remaining in the combustion by-products.
Additional heat is captured from combustion exhaust gas. The exhaust gas is channeled through the secondary heat exchanger where additional heat is extracted and released into space.High efficiency systems offer significant savings to a point that it is cost effective to replace older units with new, high-efficient units.
When purchasing a rooftop unit, do not buy a unit that is significantly larger than needed, as that will reduce its efficiency. Look for systems that offer economizers, flexible flow positions and programmable controls to improve efficiency and cut costs. Also test and balance your air distribution system to gain more savings.
Unit Heaters
Typical overall efficiencies of unit heaters vary from 60% to 80% for non condensing units and as high as 93% for condensing units. Unit Heaters have relatively large heating capacities in compact casings and can project heated air in a controlled manner over a considerable distance.
They have relatively low installed cost per unit of heat output. They have intermittent fan operation that reduces electrical costs, as well as provide the advantage of redundancy in case one unit fails. Multiple unit heaters are often linked together for reliable heating in large open areas at relatively low installed costs.
Through-the-Wall Combo Heating and Cooling
These are self-contained units and come pre-wired and pre-charged providing both heating and cooling. Heat is generated by an electronic spark-ignited burner and an aluminized steel heat exchanger and is distributed through a duct system. Combustion gases are vented outside by a power vent fan, and combustion air is drawn from outside directly into the combustion chamber.
The cooling system is mounted on slide-out chasses for easy service and maintenance. The units range from 26,000 to 64,000 Btu/hr for heating and 1 to 2.5 tons of cooling for air conditioning.
A natural gas boiler is a pressure vessel designed to provide hot water or steam. It is important to specify the appropriate boiler for cost effective heating.
There are low-pressure and high-pressure boilers steam and water boilers cast-iron sectional boilers, steel boilers, copper boilers, stainless steel boilers and aluminum boilers, to name a few.
They can also be classified in terms of natural draft versus forced or induced draft boilers.
These unique and desired features should be accurately requested when specifying the boiler to match the heating needs. Therefore, it is important to specify the appropriate boiler for cost effective operation.
A properly designed and specified boiler should include full consideration of its life cycle cost, its applications and the longer term cost stability and supply reliability of the fuel it uses – such as natural gas.
High Efficiency Condensing Boilers - Condensing boilers are high efficiency boilers that capture additional energy from the combustion products by condensation of the vapour in the flue gas.
Condensation boilers will only condense if the return water temperature is below about 60º C (140º F). At part load operations, condensing boilers with lower return water temperature (say 27º C or 81º F) can have overall boiler efficiency as high as 97%.
Retrofit of condensing boilers usually requires a redesign of the radiation system to achieve the highest system efficiencies. Product data for boilers can be obtained through the manufacturers, wholesalers or dealers.
Commercial boilers are available with heat outputs ranging from 150,000 Btu/hr to more than 2,000,000 Btu/hr. When hot water is used to deliver heat, a system of insulated pipes and heating elements is used. Most boilers have a hot water supply pipe and a cold water return pipe.
Go to our Save Money & Energy section to see our Condensing Boiler incentive program.
Steam Systems
Steam systems usually have different piping arrangements and operating temperatures and pressures compared to hot water systems. Steam is the preferred method for heating a series of buildings from a centralized boiler because steam retains its heat value longer and can travel greater distances than hot water and still effectively heat a building.
Universities and hospitals are examples of settings where steam often is used. Just like hot water systems, when the heat has dissipated from the steam, the condensate is returned to the boiler for reprocessing.
As with any system, regular maintenance is required to keep a boiler system running at peak efficiency.
Radiant Panel Heating
Radiant panels can be in different formats and locations:
Piping embedded in ceilings
Hydronic wall panels
Hydronic floor panels
Embedded pipes in concrete slab
Suspended floor piping

It was a decade when tens of millions of people in the U.S. experienced mass unemployment and social upheaval as the nation clawed its way out of the Great Depression and rumblings of global war were heard from abroad.
Now, intimate details of 132 million people who lived through the 1930s will be disclosed as the U.S. government releases the 1940 census records online for the first time on April 2.
The records will be free and open to anyone on the Internet, but they won't immediately be name searchable.
For genealogists and family historians, the 1940 census release is the most important disclosure of ancestral secrets in a decade.
Scholars expect the records to help draw a more detailed portrait of a transformative decade in American life.

UPDATE – first images from EU-109
After the very successful HP0INT expedition (winner of the DXpedition of the IOTA Marathon), members of the Invoker Team have now set their sights on activating the Farne Islands EU-109.
It's been 10 years since a major activation of this island group, and with an ever-growing number of IOTA enthusiasts chasing "new ones", we believe this activity will create heavy interest.
During the weekend of May 10 & 11 – using the callsign MX0INT – a four man team consisting Christian EA3NT, Vincent F4BKV, Gil F4FET and Col MM0NDX plan to be active from the outer island of Longstone.
Hello guys!
How's about EU-112? Rare also.
73! de Victor UA4HBW.
DR OMs! Hope HRD You one day also from EU-134 (EA2).
VY 73 + GL! Robert,OK1DH.
Hi guys,
Have fun up there, and see you in the pile-ups (I miss this one, as many of us I think)
Ronan, F8AFC
Have a nice trip and Pile-ups guys!
I agree with Robert about EA-134.
Out of Rockall, I just need this from EU.
I hope you consider to get there.
73, George HA5WA
Thanks for new IOTA. Great ops and signals. Look forward to your next destination.
I guess ON was not exactly in the most favorable position, propagation wise that is..
so no booming signals on the higher bands although from time to time you surfaced…
TNX for Q's and have a safe trip back home.
Marc ON5FP
A great pity the short skip on 20m during Friday (thanks Gil for Holy Island) didn't appear over the weekend. Still, they always sounded busy.
Unfortunately,conditions were bad,you guys were not a beep on any band!
Look forward to the next time!
Dale BA4TB
Strange band conditions indeed but thankfully good ears on the Invoker team side thus many people are happy to work new IOTA. Many thanks guys. Another great execution by the Invoker team.

50 Cent continues his hate towards Oprah of all people, in the Jan. issue of Elle magazine he states:
Winfrey "started out with black women's views but has been catering to
middle-aged white American women for so long that she's become one herself. I think the idea of being publicly noted that she's a billionaire makes [black women] interested in seeing her views. But it's even more exciting to the demographic of white American women she's been aiming at to see that she has the exact same views that they have." Source
50 Cent what are you doing, its bad enough you diss every rapper out, but now you dissing one of the major black figures that have made it big and have become a role model to millions. My advice to you is worry more about yourself and what your doing for the black community instead of worrying about Oprah. I think 50 didn't get enough hugs when he was young. Go back to beefing with The Game if you bored.
In a Krameresque tirade, a white member of MTV's Real World Denver screams, "I'm going home because some N**** wants to Kill Me!" The N word is getting out of hand now. Come on black people, we use it all our rap songs, you think non blacks won't sing along to the words(well they may look around to see if any black people are there). I think its time to just let this word go and move onto to something else. The question is does saying the N word make a white person racist or it was just out of anger?

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The federal government's Renewable Fuel Standard is a failed strategy that must be completely reconsidered and restructured, Wayne Allard, vice president of government relations for the American Motorcyclist Association, said Wednesday.
Allard's remarks came during the National Renewable Fuel Standard "Day of Action," organized to urge the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to maintain its proposed 2014 renewable volume obligation and for Congress to take up legislative reform that would permanently address the problems inherent in the current RFS.
"The RFS is not working for Americans who breathe air, eat food, ride motorcycles, drive cars or mow their lawns. And, the action you'll see around the U.S. today is emblematic of the wide-reaching support that exists for RFS reform. It's time to readdress this flawed policy," said Allard, a former U.S. senator from Colorado.
Motorcyclists, environmentalists, farmers, and business leaders lobbied the EPA and key members of Congress before gathering for a press conference.
Their message: America's engines, environment and food supply are endangered by the production, distribution and use of ethanol.
The AMA opposes E15 fuel (15 percent ethanol by volume) because inadvertent misfueling can cause engine and fuel system failure to the estimated 22 million motorcycles and all-terrain vehicles currently in use and can void manufacturers' warranties.
"Groups from every corner of the country are here in Washington today for one reason: to demand action on the ethanol mandates that are impacting so many sectors of our economy," Allard said.
U.S. Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) has offered a number of potential solutions, including the "RFS Reform Act of 2013" (H.R. 1462).
"We urge other members of Congress to join Rep. Goodlatte in reforming this uniquely flawed policy," Allard said.
Others participating in the event included U.S. Reps. Jim Costa (D-Calif.) and Steve Womack (R-Ark.); Justin Oldfield, of the California Cattlemen's Association; Ron O'Connor, of the HeartLands Conservancy of Illinois; and Paul Navarro, of the Pennsylvania Chapter of the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.
The AMA has repeatedly expressed concerns to government officials and federal lawmakers about possible damage to motorcycle and ATV engines caused by the inadvertent use of E15. For more information, visit: www.americanmotorcyclist.com/rights/amafuelforthought.aspx.

OK, so there's a local climb that currently takes me about 32 mins for me to complete.
In the absence of a powermeter, I go to http://www.kreuzotter.de/english/espeed.htm , and plug in the numbers (weight, grade, etc). Knowing how much time it takes currently vs. my time based goal, kreuzotter is estimating that my power would need to increase by 22%, I would have to lose 14lbs and I'd need a bike that's 5lbs lighter. Yeah, that's right, I said my power would need to increase by 22% AND I would have to lose 14lbs.To me that just sounds pretty ridiculous. I'd be giving myself the entire riding season (about 6 more months) for this improvement.
The easy part is losing 5lbs of bike, I can do that w/ my other frame and leaving tools, H2O, etc. at the bottom of the climb. Losing 14lbs is pretty doable (in about 3-4 months). I don't want to lose more than 14lbs. So, the hardest part is the whopping 22% power gain.
The facts (aka, the ugly truth)
- I'm 38.5 years old
- I currently weigh 184lbs
- In '05 I got back into cycling (after a 13yr hiatus), '07 was a bad year for me, so I'm some ways I'm starting from scratch in '08
- "Base" miles for '08 so far ~600
- Compared to much of the US, I'm in good health/shape. But that's still a ways off from a being in good "racing" shape/health
How doable is this? I know it's a "stretch goal" to have for a single season, but I'm just wondering if I should temper my zeal w/ a dose of reality from this subforum. But that's not to say that I'm discouraging anyone from sharing success stories, pointers, advice, etc. either.
Give up and just enjoy bon-bons, pork rinds and whiskey?

Channing Frye scores 30, Suns handle Nuggets 117-103
PHOENIX - Channing Frye scored a season-high 30 points before sitting out the final 9 1/2 minutes to watch the Phoenix Suns wrap up a 117-103 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Sunday night.
Frye, who missed all of last season for treatment of an enlarged heart, made 12 of 16 shots, 5 of 7 3-pointers, to fall three points shy of his career high.
Markieff Morris scored 16 and Goran Dragic 15 for the Suns, who never trailed and improved to 3-0 against Denver this season with one game to play.
Anthony Randolph scored a season-best 19 for the Nuggets, who have lost four of five and were without guard Randy Foye because of a stomach virus. Evan Fournier, Ty Lawson and Wilson Chandler added 17 points apiece for Denver.
In his most extensive minutes of the season since returning from an ankle injury, Suns rookie center Alex Len had nine points and six rebounds.
The Suns never fell behind two nights after they never had the lead in a home loss to Dallas.
The Nuggets managed three ties in the first quarter before Phoenix took the lead for good when Frye's 22-footer made it 21-19 with 4:27 left in the opening quarter.
The Suns led by as many as 11 early in the second quarter and were up 62-56 at the half. Phoenix opened the second half with a 9-1 run to take its biggest lead, 71-57, after Dragic banked in a running 10-footer.
Denver got back in it with a flurry of 3-pointers and offensive rebounds.
Chandler scored 11 in the third quarter, including three 3-pointers, and Denver cut the lead to 77-73 on Fournier's 3 with 4:02 to left in the period. Denver had a chance to get closer moments later, but Hickson missed two free throws.
Baskets by Frye and Leandro Barbosa boosted the Suns' lead to 84-77 before Lawson's late driving layup cut the their margin to 84-79 entering the fourth quarter.
The Nuggets started the fourth with a basket to cut it to 84-81, but that's as close as it got. Frye sank a 3-pointer to start a 7-0 spurt that made it 91-81 10:12 from the end. Denver sliced it to 91-86, then Phoenix scored the next seven and the Nuggets never got it closer than nine again.

DR. PERSHING: Thank you all for coming, glad to see you again. We decided we'd tried to be fairly frequent in these so while there's not a great deal of change since I saw you last, I thought it would be useful to give you an update on how we see things moving. So let me do that first, with an update about where the negotiations stand.
Before I do that I wanted to do one additional thing. That is an advantage of having the podium. I know that many of you are spending your time here but there, as you probably know, is also a large exhibit space at Cancun Messe. The United States has got a space there. We brought a number of our experts from the U.S. down to make presentations; have a series of panel discussions on a variety of different issues covering what the U.S. is doing at home, technology developments underway, scientific developments underway in the United States and I think that might be of quite broad interest. A lot of it will be webcast live. If you're interested in taking a look at it the information is available and the webcasts will be available at www.state.gov/COP16, so you'll have information, quite a lot of breadth of information, both on U.S. programs and U.S. activities.
We turn for just a minute to the negotiations and what is going on.
In the last couple of days the focus has been really a combination of formal opening statements and then the initial round of exchanges between countries on a quite wide range of issues under consideration.
We are now about to start diving into greater detail, we'll start working in smaller groups and we'll begin to negotiate specific texts of the decisions. The negotiations will primarily take place in contact groups, will be under the guidance of facilitators who have been tasked to help find consensus. Today, and likely the rest of this week and next week, we'll be focusing intensely on working toward this agreement.
Where is the U.S. in all of this? Some of you might not have been here on Monday, so I want to reiterate just a few of the comments I made then. We are committed to achieving a successful outcome here in Cancun that builds on the progress made last year in Copenhagen and takes another step forward in our collective approach to the climate challenge.
We are seeking a balanced package of decisions, one that preserves the balance of the Accord from Copenhagen, which was something that our President, along with many other world leaders, directly negotiated and to which a large majority of the world's nations have subscribed. Agreements here in Cancun should make progress on all of the key issues—mitigation, transparency, financing, adaptation, technology, and forests, or as it's known here, REDD.
To get to this outcome, which advances the global effort to mitigate climate change, we are prepared to be pragmatic and flexible. Others must be too. Just as there is a way forward to make progress on such things as a Green Fund and REDD, there is equally a way forward with transparency and with anchoring mitigation commitments.
Capturing progress in all elements of the negotiations, maintaining the carefully crafted balance of the Copenhagen Accord and moving one step closer to meeting this challenge is absolutely doable.
There are many encouraging proposals already on the table that could help lead to agreement on a set of robust decisions. These include proposals to start standing up a Green Fund with governance systems that will encourage donors to contribute, to create a new technology mechanism that takes advantage of existing fora and global technology expertise, to start implementing significant mitigation commitments, to put in place a system of transparency and accountability -- the so-called MRV and ICA provisions -- and to make real progress on adaptation and on forest protection. Decisions in each of these areas would establish blueprints guiding our next steps to a fully operational package.
Success here will require all Parties to move forward, for all Parties to take the necessary steps to agree to these decisions. The United States will spare no effort to work with our international partners to reach this outcome. There is no reason we cannot get full, robust operational decisions in all of these areas. But all Parties have to be pragmatic, not allow ideology to stand in the way of progress, and recognize that the only way forward is with a balanced package of decisions. The environment cannot afford for us to delay and wrangle over issues on which we can now, and should now, agree.
Thank you and I am very happy to answer any questions.
QUESTION: On Monday you talked about progress with China, and that you'd seen them in the halls. I just wondered if there's been any progress there in the last couple of days and if you have had some talks?
DR. PERSHING: We have not since then had a formal bilateral discussion. We are working on arranging the time. Both of us are trying to juggle schedules. The sessions, though, where we've seen each other have certainly been very concrete, very cordial, but there's been no formal discussion.
QUESTION: What issue of the ones you just mentioned is likely to be worked on first with China?
DR. PERSHING: I think that for us the question really is about how we can get this outcome that I think both of us are interested in having. What's the package? How do you put together a deal that covers all of these areas? And that's the area that we'll focus on, and then the elements within it are areas we have to work with them to achieve.
QUESTION: Could you comment on what the United States is doing in these negotiations to advance the REDD process? And related to that is transparency. You spoke about transparency. Right now the United States is in the process of developing a regulatory regime for carbon dioxide through the Environmental Protection Agency. And the question is being raised by some, why would it not be a good idea to harmonize U.S. regulatory standards to fit the accounting that is being proposed for land use change and such in these international negotiations and process as well. If you could comment on those both please.
DR. PERSHING: Thanks very much. The REDD issue, as many people have been following it, is very, very significant. If you combine the land use change and the forests, they account respectively for the better part of a quarter of total greenhouse gas emissions. It's a huge share of the total that includes agriculture and forestry and a variety of shifts in the way we use land around the world. It's become a significant issue, a significant opportunity in these negotiations. Last year in Copenhagen, the United States joined in a partnership with a group of other countries, currently numbering on the order of fifty, which includes almost all of the major forested nations around the world. It's a partnership to begin to develop both methodologies to identify why we're looking at such rapid reductions in [forests], what are the drivers of it, how can we do work collectively to reduce the impacts of deforestation and how can we avoid it in the future. And what does that mean in terms of sustainability in the land-use sector more widely. To that end, we are part in this partnership, of a nearly $5 billion dollar package to which the United States has committed over a three-year period, as part of our prompt start effort of one billion dollars over the three years. In the fiscal year 2010 we have put up on the State Department website as well as on an international website made available by the Dutch government, information about all of our projects and programs which details specifically where we're working on the land-use change and forestry activities. A number of recent elements of those have been quite significant. Many of you know that President Obama was recently in Indonesia, and that is one of the key forest areas that is undergoing significant deforestation. In his visit, he made very clear our very strong support through this partnership and through bilateral work to address deforestation there. We are also working on the Amazon basin and in the Congo basin, which with Indonesia are the three largest forested regions in the tropical forests in the world. We are developing programs for spatial monitoring, for monitoring from space about deforestation, programs that examine what might be done for monitoring and verification that will help us develop robust regimes; a very aggressive program.
On the issue of transparency, the United States believes this is going to be one of the key elements moving forward. It's somewhat technical. People say, "Well, what does it matter if you have the same rules or different rules." We would argue that they need to be robust rules. And they may apply differently in different places. So for example, a tropical forest might have different characteristics than a peat northland forest. In fact they are quite different. The same rules would not apply. The United States Department of Agriculture on regular basis updates its inventories; they tend to do individual plot samples, which make possible over a period of years an examination of how the trends in U.S. forests work. Would we demand that same thing for all developing countries? It may not be necessary. There may be other means that they choose to do that; they could both be satisfactory. For us the issue is robustness. The issue is full transparency; not identical. Furthermore, in many cases they probably will converge. There are going to be certain standards that will all begin to apply. And over time I think many of the U.S. standards will come into bear. One of the things that is quite interesting is that the global community is using standards from 1996. The intergovernmental panel in 1996 developed a series of recommendations on inventories. They're used in the Kyoto protocol. The United States is not part of that agreement. We're actually using standards developed by the same body 10 years later in 2006. Should we revert to the ones that are 10 years old? That just doesn't seem the right choice. Over time there's likely to be convergence. But our sense right now the key is to make them clear and robust are fully transparent.
QUESTION: Talking with some delegates, I heard that the position of the U.S. is slowing down the process by insisting on this balanced package that you refer to. I wonder if you could explain to us what the advantages of having a balanced package is as opposed to focusing on the low-hanging fruit and leaving the tougher things for a little bit later in these meetings or 2011?
DR. PERSHING: Thanks very much. I think the heart of this discussion is really what we are trying to do with the environment. We are not trying for the environment to create a financial mechanism. We are trying to provide resources to help countries mitigate. We are not trying in this effort to create a committee to talk about adaptation. We are trying to put on the ground programs that make a difference in countries. Many of you have followed what has been going on recently in Latin America. There have been huge floods in Colombia. The head of the Colombian delegation was delayed coming up, because of the effort she is also responsible for domestically to manage those questions. That's an adaptation problem. It's not about a committee in the United Nations. If we put off the things about mitigation, the things about action, and say we'll pick up the low-hanging fruit which is the establishment of an institution, we are not working on the problem in an appropriate manner. We need to do all of these things. We need to commit to the mitigation side. It needs to be transparent because that will build confidence that all countries are moving and will be able to take next steps. It needs to be coupled with financial support, because we are not providing support for anything, we are providing support for those mitigations efforts.
We need to move on technology. It is not independent, it is linked. It is the way that you make the mitigation actions less costly and more effective. And it is not just technology for mitigation. It is technology for adaptation and we need to move both on the technology and on the policies and practices.
And we don't leave out the REDD discussions, that's not just low-hanging fruit. That requires a level of clear information about what the monitoring programs are so we can guarantee the environmental effectiveness. The package is not disentangled, the package is connected. We move on it collectively because that is the solution. You can't pull out a piece and say, "Hah, I've got it, everything else can wait and still be moving forward successfully."
QUESTION: The Japanese Prime Minister announced on Monday that it would have no part in a continued Kyoto Protocol, Kyoto Protocol number two. It would have no association with that. To what extent does that resonate with U.S. own policy on Kyoto?
DR. PERSHING: As I think all of you know, the United States is not and has never been a Party to the Kyoto Protocol. And so we're not actively taking part in those discussions here in these negotiations. I understand that's being discussed in previous discussions, in previous press conferences with both Mexico and others. I don't really have any comment to make on it. It is an issue in the discussion. There are two tracks here in the negotiation. But Japan's been quite clear and I think it's very much within any country's right to decide how it wants to move forward. It happens to be a choice that Japan has made, and the group of Parties now has to deal with how it moves forward.
QUESTION: Could you please talk about MRV in respect to India and China. How faraway do you think the U.S. from India and China's position and whether it's likely to have an outcome on MRV in Cancun?
DR. PERSHING: It's always hard on day three of a fourteen day conference to speak about likelihoods, a little kind of early in it. We are just now getting into the formal discussions, or I should say the informal discussions on these detailed questions. The first one was held yesterday, but it was a procedural discussion. There was no substantive conversation. That will be this afternoon. So, I can't really tell you exactly where countries are. What I can tell is where they have been coming in. And coming in, it was quite clear that we were converging. But we've not yet reached agreement. And the next ten days will determine whether or not we can reach that agreement. We think it's doable. We think that the kinds of things that we are seeking make sense and in many cases are being done by both India and by China in other fora. They have domestic value. So, for example, countries that are working on policies which both India and China and the U.S. are, have enormous value in understanding how their performance is going. That internal measurement and metric is helpful and comparing themselves about expectations and performance with others through an international process also brings value. And these countries do it in other fora. We're quite hopeful that can move forward, but that's the negotiation for the next two weeks.
QUESTION: President Lula said today that COP16 is not going to reach any important results and that important leaders are not coming here. I would like you to comment on that please.
DR. PERSHING: It is always hard for a negotiator to comment on a comment from a head of State. I personally think that the process will reach results, and I think there will be conclusions coming out. I am very hopeful they will continue to make progress toward the goal that I know that he shares, that Brazil shares. Certainly Brazilian negotiators are working for the same goal that we are working for, which is a robust outcome that continues to finally address the climate change problem. I think all of us, all of us, participating around the world in these negotiations, recognize the seriousness of the climate change problem, the threat that it poses to countries everywhere, and are making a good effort to move forward and certainly I do hope there will be an outcome from this session that moves us that way.
QUESTION: Can you just tell us and give us some clue about any compromise that the United States might be prepared to make on mitigation given this is the hottest year ever, and given what is going on in Latin America, and given all the other crises which are taking place, since I don't think there has been many compromises which you have made.
DR. PERSHING: It is always kind of an interesting thing to think about where one sits in the process and my own sense about the system is that when you sit inside of it, compromises seem to be ripe, seem to be frequent, seem to be significant, and I don't think there is any distinction now this year than last year. The things the U.S. sought going into the process in Copenhagen were not what came out, but we think the deal that came out of Copenhagen moved us forward. The things that we are seeking going in I am trying to outline in the answers to these questions; we hope they will come out, because those are things that we think will make a difference in solving the problem. If the details are different we will have to see what they are, before we can know whether or not we'd accept the outcome.
QUESTION: You said that you can't take a meeting with the Chinese delegation, but if it is possible to hold such reunion is it possible to have an agreement between United States and China itself more than the meeting, you know what I mean. And by the other part, is it possible to have more commitments from the United States, because many people are saying that the United States is not having commitments enough. Thank you.
DR. PERSHING: The answer to the first question is no. We are not here to have a negotiation bilaterally. We are here to have a negotiation as part of a global effort to resolve this issue and to work on the next steps on the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change. In that context, we and China are significant partners and both of us major Parties to the outcome that we are seeking, and there is no likely solution if we ourselves can't find some agreement. But the outcome will not be an outcome between the two of us; it will be an outcome in which the two of us participate in a global agreement.
The second question has very much to do with what is going on in the U.S. and the commitments that we've made, and the efforts that have been followed through, and the perceived adequacy of those efforts. I would say two things about it. The first one is that there is an enormous amount going on in the U.S. and that people should be very clear about the depth and the breadth of those actions. One of the reasons I provided information about the side events that we're running at the Center that we are hosting is that it is an effort that we are trying to make to bring some of that information to the world. People, I think, often don't have the kind of insight into what is going on, because they are coming from other countries and don't have easy access. We are trying to make that information more public because it is very, very substantial. It covers programs in the agricultural sector, in the forest sector, in industry, in energy, in transport, in new technology; there are hundreds of billions of dollars of investment in the U.S. in the public and private sector, specifically working on these kinds of questions. Issues related to efficiency, programs that manage alternative energy, ideas that can change housing stock, programs that address land-use and forestry and sequestration and soils, new technology options that deal with the technologies of the future in all of these sectors. Huge investments are being made across the board; we need to be more public in sharing those.
The President has also made and we continue to affirm the commitment that we made in Copenhagen last year. We are not moving away from that, that is a public statement that we stand behind. Clearly the next steps for implementing that are going to have to go through Congress, through regulation, through executive order; we will work on all of those tracks, all of those avenues at home to implement those programs and meet that commitment. It is very significant. It is a significant change from the business-as-usual course that we had been on for the past decades, and it is that shift that we are trying to move quickly and to encourage the rest of the world to also move on. And we add up our commitment and the other commitments they get us a long way toward the ultimate objective that we are seeking which is to combat the threat of climate change.
Thank you.

This looks pretty great! You've got a good layout, some really nice textures in there, and that knotted border is a very nice touch!
My only suggestions would be to try and get a little more contrast in your colors next time. If you open the image up in GIMP and look at the Levels, you should (unless Levels in the GIMP just work completely differently than they do in Photoshop, and I don't imagine they do) see a graph that shows exactly where all the values within it lie. I think if you do you'll find that 90% plus of your values are clustered in a big lump between black and 50% gray. If you can get some lighter colors in there next time I think you'll find your map has a lot more pop!
On the same note, the text on your map key would really stand out better on a lighter background; black text on a dark gray background is hard on tired old eyes like mine!

George R. Mather Lecture Series
- June 1, 2014 at 2:00pm until 3:00pm
Location: The History Center, 302 East Berry Street, Fort Wayne IN 46802
Cost: Free and open to the public
Brad Skiles will deliver the final lecture of the season in the George R. Mather lecture series on Sunday, June 1. Skiles will speak on "Hugh McCulloch: From Cashier to Treasury Secretary".
The lecture begins at 2 p.m. and is free and open to the public at the History Center.
Skiles has done extensive research on the life of McCulloch, who worked in banking in Fort Wayne and became Treasury Secretary 37 days prior to Lincoln's assassination. McCulloch was first on the scene after the attempt on Secretary of State William Seward's life the same evening that Lincoln was shot and joined with others to pray for the life of the President in the house across from Ford's Theater, where he had been taken.
McCulloch led a nearly bankrupt country into financial stability and designed the financial strategy for rebuilding the war-torn nation. He moved the country from a failed paper currency to the gold standard. He chronicled his work for three Presidents and nearly 16,000 of his original manuscripts are now owned by the Lilly Library at IU Bloomington

Hypnosis – How Can It Help You Lose Weight
Most choose to lose weight while working out, fitness instructors and hours spent on the treadmill; some take weight loss pills and eat healthier, counting calories and watching sodium and salt intake. Some mightn't have the time for gym memberships, the amount of money for a membership, fitness instructors, or even have the time and energy to make it to the gym as often as they want to for rapid weight loss.
The price of diet pills is dear and the expenses for fresh fruits, vegetables, and grains may be out of some budgets. Fortunately enough, there's hypnosis to lose weight.
Hypnosis is a methods of relaxing. Through concentration and relaxation you'll be able to reach your subconscious, here is the most impressionable perhaps the mind considering it cannot tell between reality and imagination. When targeting the subconscious you have to focus on the positive aspect of dieting and maintaining a healthy diet. You need to pinpoint the end result that you require the most as you concentrate on what you must do to do this goal
.After you have created these thoughts in your subconscious, you will see, almost immediately that your opinion and ideas on diet and fat reduction have changed. Rather than seeing it as a task, you will have created an alternate reality where you stand healthier and you know what sensible food to eat, it is undoubtedly a energy in order to smoke healthy meals and your health can be your #1 priority. This is will make it easier for you to follow a healthy lifestyle and stick to your diet goals with little effort. The hypnosis to lose weight targets a few of the main contributions to being obese. First, you want to get rid of the over eating and also stop eating when you are full. You're going to start to eat healthier foods in smaller portions, and eliminating unhealthy food. This is planning to result in, not only, weight loss but confidence and a higher self confidence.
Just as if you were to start working out and eating healthier alone, this may take some time to make their own. It may not also have the outcomes you desire. However with time and dedication and the need to live healthier and being knowledgeable on hypnosis and weight-loss, you'll have the results you need.

We've found Packers fans most everywhere around the world - holding surfboards on the beaches in Hawaii and posing in front of the pyramids in Egypt. But few fans may be able to top Jon Cole, a loyal fan of the green and gold living in China and working as a human cannonball.
Cole grew up in Peru, Ind., known as "The Circus Capital of the World," where instead of playing sports, most kids try out for the amateur circus. Cole started at five years old and spent the next 15 summers practicing circus stunts, working his way up to the flying trapeze.
Because Cole had family from Wisconsin, he also grew up loving the Packers, and from second grade on Cole joined his grandfather, dad, uncle and brother on annual trips to Green Bay during football season.
"My grandfather came down to Indiana, but you can't take the Packers out of his heart," he said. "When I was finally old enough to make the trip, it happened to be Brett Favre's first start in the NFL. There's nothing quite like the family tradition of going to experience Lambeau Field and all of the surroundings every year."
Cole performed in the circus until he was 21, and also went to Indiana Wesleyan University and graduated with a teaching degree. After graduation, Cole set out on a year-long tour with a flying trapeze troupe that even included a couple of months in Portugal. Then Cole settled down, got a "real job" as a teacher, and married his girlfriend, Jenny - also a schoolteacher from Peru with a background in the circus.
Then Cole ran into a friend who had performed as a human cannonball for Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus for 12 years. Cole discovered his friend had a few extra cannons designed for launching humans, so just like most of us would do, Cole climbed into one and had his friend light the fuse. Cole kept launching himself from the cannon, kept moving the 30 x 20-foot aircushion farther back and, more importantly, he kept landing on it. Turned out Cole was pretty good at being shot from a cannon.
"I had never done anything with a cannon act before, as they are pretty rare to find," Cole said. "I think there are around eight in the world. My circus background and body control made it much easier to get the hang of, but nothing really prepares you for the feeling of flying free through the air."
One day an agent called from the Chimelong International Circus in Guangzhou, China. They were looking for a human cannonball act, so Cole and his family went to China in June of 2011 and have been there since. He's the first of his kind in China, and the Chimelong is the largest non-touring circus in the world. He performs in front of 10,000 people at a time, is featured on billboards and even does commercials - though he prefers to downplay his fame.
Cole's contract with Chimelong expires in February, and he and Jenny have decided to return to Indiana. It will be easier to follow the Packers from there, though Cole said he reads about the team daily online and even goes to a local sports bar – owned by a Canadian couple – with another Packers fan to watch the games. Because of the time difference, the bar's owner keeps the place open for Cole and his Packer buddy and they watch the games at 1 a.m. and 4 a.m.
"I have a Clay Matthews and Aaron Rodgers jersey, and my wife has a Greg Jennings jersey," Cole said. "My two kids have Rodgers jerseys as well."
Cole's son is named Jaxon Tyler-Favre Cole - his loyalty toward the Packers runs deep.
"Sadly, I missed the family trip to Lambeau Field in 2011 and 2012 due to my contract here in China, but I will see the Packers again in 2013," he said. "I can't wait."

Edgar Martinez's first crack at the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown will come in three years, and he's rated a longshot prospect by most analysts...
Edgar Martinez's first crack at the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown will come in three years, and he's rated a longshot prospect by most analysts.
But Martinez was a slam-dunk choice for the Mariners' Hall of Fame, and he will be enshrined in a pregame ceremony at Safeco Field on June 2.
The announcement came Wednesday from team president Chuck Armstrong at the Mariners' spring-training luncheon.
Martinez will be the fourth member of their hall, following first baseman Alvin Davis, announcer Dave Niehaus and outfielder Jay Buhner.

Most Read Stories
To be eligible, a player must have spent at least five seasons with the Mariners, and have been retired for at least two seasons. The voting is done by members of the Mariners' board of directors.
"Edgar is a friend, one of the greats in this great game, and a true gentleman," Armstrong said. "His contributions to this organization and this community cannot be overstated."
Martinez, a two-time American League batting champion and a seven-time All-Star, played his entire 18-year career in Seattle. He was named the American League's top designated hitter five times. Upon his retirement, commissioner Bud Selig announced the award would henceforth be named for Martinez.
Hargrove optimistic
Befitting a spring-training kickoff event, Mariners manager Mike Hargrove oozed optimism and enthusiasm.
"I am as excited going into this season as I think I've ever been in my 15 years of managing in the big leagues," he said.
"I don't say that lightly. We have a good bunch of guys. Our goal is to win the American League West. Anything short of that will be a huge disappointment for us, and I'm sure for our fans."
On Meche, Zito
Mariners general manager Bill Bavasi had some frank comments about departed pitcher Gil Meche, who signed as a free agent with Kansas City for five years and $55 million.
Noting that Meche probably had the best arm of any free agent on the market, Bavasi said: "There's probably some fuse missing in his fuse box that makes it work on a consistent basis.
"Maybe Kansas City can find that switch and get it turned on. We think that the attempts made here were real strong. … To his credit, Gil was willing to try a lot of things. Staying consistent was a real challenge."
Bavasi also addressed for the first time the team's pursuit of free agent Barry Zito, who signed a seven-year, $126 million contract with San Francisco. The Mariners reportedly offered him a six-year deal for $99 million.
"That was a special allowance by ownership to go after him," Bavasi said. "That would have been kind of like found money if we got him.
"We made a real good run at him. I really believe if geography didn't come into play, and San Francisco wasn't the perfect spot for him — and his parents — this is where he would have liked to come."
Spring invitations
The Mariners unveiled their list of 20 nonroster invitees to spring training, and as always it contained some interesting names.
Players with major-league experience included pitcher Aaron Small, who was 10-0 with a 3.20 earned-run average in 15 games (nine starts) for the Yankees in 2005, but dipped to 0-3, 8.46 last year and was designated for assignment in June.
Other pitchers invited to camp are Carlos Alvarado, Jorge Campillo, Jaime Cerda, Renee Cortez, Jesse Foppert, Justin Lehr, Brandon Morrow, Matt Perisho and Juan Sandoval. Morrow was Seattle's No. 1 draft pick last year out of California.
Also invited to camp were catchers Jamie Burke, Jeff Clement, Rob Johnson and Luis Oliveros, infielders Sean Burroughs, Gookie Dawkins, Rey Ordonez and Matt Tuiasosopo, and outfielders Rayon Lampe and Tony Torcato.
• Bavasi said the team has no urgency to address an extension for Ichiro, who is entering the final year of his four-year, $44 million contract. "It's a top priority, but the timing is not that important," Bavasi said. "I don't know if you want to believe me or not, but it's not going to be a huge issue. He's a special player, but I think Seattle is a special place for him, too."
• Trainer Rick Griffin gave positive reports on most of the players who ended last year with injuries, but RHP Mark Lowe remains a concern after arthroscopic elbow surgery in October. Griffin said the hope is that Lowe will resume throwing next month and "the projection is for him to hopefully get back to competitive pitching in mid-May or early June."

we were told that some one in our house had a car accident, my wife told (don't be daft we have never had a car) with that she put the phone down on him is name is mike.
I just simply tell them no ones had an accident (which thankfully we haven't) and say goodbye and that's that, however as a TPS registered phone number I shouldn't get calls even from any foreign country If the main company is a UK company, so yes it can be annoying but not the end of the world lol
Get multiple calls from these guys asking about my "accident". Now they have started singing down the phone to me. Weirdos!
Been called by them 4 times in past 2 days, BUT....
1) TPS does not work if the UK company outsource overseas.
2) I know these names are fakes, but what make people think Christian names are exclusive to caucasians?
3) No cold calls ever from UK based companies????????
4) Rude to you? Hardly surprising if they are given racial abuse on their previous 10 calls.
5) The answer lies early on this thread, IF you can be bothered to read it, it's the National Accident Helpline, take up your issues (TPS, cold calling, overseas outsourcing, etc) with THEM directly, not the callers who are just doing their job (annoying though it is).
Received call today at 3pm from number 0135 80008 again claiming to be from the national accident helpline. I spoke with "Stephen" who had an Asian accent & when I replied no to "someone within the household having an accident within the last 3yrs" he immediately hung up! Thankfully didn't experience any lewd or offensive language as some people have commented, that would have been horrible. Hoping they don't call back!!
I had a call from this number on 2 July. He said that I had an accident a few months ago, but I just said he had the wrong number and he rung off.
Had a call though could not hear what they were saying when I tried to call back there was no such number.
Has one this morning too. I think something needs doing to stop cold calling...
Just had a phone call from this number but when l answered the connection was bad and tried to ring the number back but was engaged , I googled the number as the same as a previous comment was confused by the number and came across these posts, so thank you for making it aware although unknowingly as will be prepared if they ring again
These pains in the backside rang my home this afternoon, I refused to answer the call as I was suspicious due to the number displayed only having 9 digits instead of the usual 11. They hung up when the answer phone kicked in. I am also with TPS so shouldn't have received this call. It really is time our politicians dealt with this problem and did something to actually help people for once.
caller, very abusive when asked his managing director's name and if he had had an accident recently !
Have these answers been helpful? Have you had a different experience with this number? Just tell us your problem with the 013580008. Describe your experience, the frequency of the calls, timing... Everything! Every single detail is important! We have a huge community with problems like yours, they will be willing to help you!
At unknownphone.com we have more than 40000 numbers already identified by our users: phone operators, lawyers, or just regular internet users! Ending those nuisance calls is up to you!

Cruel summer for King's Lynn Town boss Gary Setchell in the non-league transfer market
08:45 22 July 2014
Gary Setchell insists it's been harder than ever to be the boss of King's Lynn Town this summer.
While the Linnets chief might be able to joke that he's "had more blow-outs than (Formula One legend) Niki Lauda", his inability to add depth to his Linnets squad has been no laughing matter. Yet the man who became sole manager of the reformed club in October 2011, is adamant he will not give up trying to bolster his options at The Walks ahead of the Evo-Stik Premier Division's big kick-off on August 16.
Setchell said: "I've still got money left for one player, believe it or not. The budget's no better or worse than last season.
"I have to be very careful what I'm doing. I'm battling against teams with a lot bigger budget than us. I keep trying, I keep thinking I've got people, and I keep getting blown out at the last minute.
"Some people I don't think I've got and then all of a sudden you get a phone call and they're coming here. It's been the toughest summer because I want to improve. But obviously, if your budget doesn't improve it's hard to do that."
The Town chief has brought in Jackson Ramm, David Bridges and Michael Frew as well as re-signing Ross Watson and Steve Spriggs – but initially only on loan for three months. Yet, despite a string of departures compounding his woes, Setchell refuses to be downbeat at how things are shaping up.
"We are running a small squad, because we've gone top heavy," said Lynn's boss.
"Keeping David Bell, Jake Jones, Dan Quigley and Jordan Yong is big for us. The main battle was keeping our best players at the football club, which has cost. We're going to go with 14, 15 or possibly 16 - with Chris Ward and Shaun Stocker on top of that. So the squad's going to have plenty of quality.
"It won't have the depth we'd like but if someone gets an injury long-term I'll bring someone in. You can only start with 11 on a day and if we keep our best players fit we won't have a problem."

Hi Zimbra-users!
I did a little misstake when installing my os, SuSE 10.3.
I made this partitions:
/home 100G
I thought zimbra would install in a home-folder, (my mistake could have rtfm-first).
Now, / are running out of space but /home has lots of space!
My idea is to:
zmcontrol stop
cp -r /opt/zimbra /home/zimbra
mv /opt/zimbra /opt/zimbra_
ln -s /home/zimbra/ /opt/zimbra
zm controll start
Is this a bad idea?
Will this work?
Are there any folders that will grow that suits better to softlink?
Thanks in advance...

Hasselhoff Champions Talking Cars
By Joshua Tyler 2005-06-03 00:00:00 comments
Theres more than one reason David Hasselhoff won this years Flaming Hobbit Spirit Award. One is that hes a terrible actor, another is that hes pretty cool. Apparently, hes also got a lot of integrity.
The Hasselhoff (who is beloved by Germans) has been talking for years now about trying to put together a Knight Rider movie. At one point it seemed like it was about to happen, and then a couple of years ago all word on the project just died. Well, thanks to The Movie Blog we now know why.
In an interview with an oldies station (where else would David Hasselhoff be?) David revealed that studio bosses wanted to make the film without a talking car! Hasselhoff refused, and so the movie went nowhere. He had this to say about it, Its stupid, theres no film without a talking car So we waited two years and won. The car will talk.
Youve gotta wonder what idiot tried to make a Knight Rider movie without a talking car. Its nice to know theres at least someone with some common sense in Hollywood, but whod have thunk it was hiding in David Hasselhoff?
So it looks like the Knight Rider movie may be once again moving ahead. Well keep you updated as we find more. At one point Paul Walker was rumored to be taking over the Hasselhoff role, who knows whatll happen now. For the record, this is just about the only role that Paul Walker would actually be good for and I say that as a sincere fan of the show.

Lawrence Summers has several introductions. Right now, he is the director of President Obamas National Economic Council. He created controversy in Harvard. But an earlier controversy from 1991 is almost forgotten. That was when he was at the World Bank and signed a memo that was probably written by Lant Pritchett. The memo said, The economic logic behind dumping a load of toxic waste in the lowest wage country is impeccable. Environmental costs, wage costs and valuations of human life are lower in developing countries like India.
While Bhopal gas disaster and the consequent human tragedy is understandably an emotive issue, one cant get away from some facts. First, one cant compare compensation in India with compensation in the US, even if one adjusts for PPP. It is one thing to say that average final compensation for personal injury at Rs 25,000 is low. But benchmarking this against disaster compensation in the US, as media has been wont to do, is unwarranted. Second, tort law is relatively underdeveloped in India, despite social justice constituting a recurrent theme in the Constitution. In many instances, tort law isnt even codified, not uncommon in common law jurisdictions. Lets not forget the Environment Protection Act of 1986 was triggered by Bhopal.
Third, related to the second point, why have damages? For the wrong committed, there is an element of compensation. This is static aspect of law. To prevent such injuries in future, there can be a punitive element. This is dynamic aspect of law. Punitive damages are rare (almost non-existent) in India and again, there is not much point making comparisons with the US. Fourth, our law is still hazy on liability of a parent company (UCC) vis-à-vis liability of its subsidiary (UCIL). We are on even weaker ground if UCC is subsequently bought over by Dow Chemical Company and lets not forget that Dow didnt purchase UCIL.
Fifth, contrary to popular perception, courts dont create law. They interpret it. At best, there can be deviation from this principle on constitutional issues. Therefore, if a Bhopal Gas Leak Disaster (Processing of Claims) Act is passed in 1985, making the government sole representative of victims (inside and outside India), courts are bound by that legislation. Questioning this legislation is legitimate, as is the questioning of the out-of-court settlement figure of $470 million, compared to the original ask of $3 billion. Did government underestimate the number of people entitled

All this is done in the context of the six competencies mandated by the ACGME: patient care, medical knowledge, interpersonal and communication skills, professionalism, practice-based learning and improvement, and systems-based practice. Ultimately, these competencies insure that we produce radiologists who are knowledgeable and compassionate care givers, who have developed the tools to continue learning and growing throughout their careers, and who are enthusiastic participants in the health care system. Upon completion of our program, residents will have acquired substantial medical and radiologic knowledge and the skills to apply this knowledge to all aspects of the daily practice of radiology.

Off the heels of his joint single with AraabMuzik, "Molly Ringwald," Danny Brown told Hive that he's in conversations with other artists for future projects. The Detroit Rapper — who's working on the follow up to his 2011 standout XXX — says a collaboration might be in the works with the Weeknd. "We're talking about doing something, maybe for the new album," he said at Pitchfork Music Festival last weekend. "We started talking on Twitter and texting each other."
Don't expect to see any guest spots from Frank Ocean though; while Brown bought his recently-released Channel Orange, he doesn't exactly count himself as a fan. "You can't be a fan of Frank Ocean and the Weeknd," he said. "I feel like it's a Pepsi or Coke thing: You gotta pick one, and I'm more of a Weeknd guy."
For more Danny Brown, watch the latest episode of Weird Vibes, where he takes us on a quick tour of Barcelona. Stream "Molly Ringwald" below:
