Rome, Italy, 2016/01/04 - Enel Green Power (EGP) has completed and connected to the grid the first 20 MW of its 97 MW Carrera Pinto photovoltaic plant, located in the Chilean region of Atacama - Enel.com. IT0003128367
The first 20 MW of the 97 MW solar park have just been completed and connected to the grid;
Enel Green Power is investing approximately 180 million US dollars in the construction of Carrera Pinto.
The solar plant is owned by Parque Solar Carrera Pinto S.A., a subsidiary of Enel Green Power Chile Ltda. The remaining 77 MW of the photovoltaic facility are expected to be completed and enter into service by the second half of 2016. Once fully operational, Carrera Pinto will be able to generate over 260 GWh each year equivalent to the annual power consumption needs of around 122,000 Chilean households while avoiding the emissions of more than 127,000 tonnes of CO2.
EGP is investing approximately 180 million US dollars in the construction of Carrera Pinto, as part of the investments foreseen in the companys current business plan. The project is financed through the Enel Green Power Groups own resources and is supported by a long-term power purchase agreement (PPA).
The energy generated by the Carrera Pinto solar plant, which is located 60 kilometres from the city of Copiapó, will be delivered to Chiles Central Region Transmission Network (Sistema Interconectado Central, SIC).
EGP currently operates a portfolio of plants in Chile that have a combined installed capacity of around 600 MW, of which 340 MW comes from wind power, 174 MW from PV solar and 92 MW from hydropower. In addition, Enel Green Power currently has close to 600 MW of projects in execution which, when completed, will bring the companys total installed capacity in Chile to about 1,200 MW. Among these projects, EGP is building Cerro Pabellòn, South Americas first geothermal plant that has a gross installed capacity of 48 MW, in partnership with ENAP.
Enel Green Power is the Enel Group Company (enel.com) fully dedicated to the international development and management of renewable energy sources, with operations in Europe, the Americas, Africa and Asia. With a generation capacity that corresponds to approximately 32 billion kWh in 2014 from water, sun, wind and the Earths heat enough to meet the energy needs of more than 11 million households Enel Green Power is a world leader in the sector thanks to its well-balanced generation mix that provides generation volumes well over the sector average. The company has an installed capacity of more than 10,000 MW from a mix of sources including wind, solar, hydropower, geothermal and biomass. The company has about 740 plants operating in 16 countries.

Students receive $1,500 to implement cardiovascular health awareness project in their school
Thanks to a grant from the American Heart Association and American Stroke Association, The Children's Aid Society awarded $1,500 to a group of students from MS293 City College Academy of the Arts last week. The students will use the funds to implement a cardiovascular health awareness project at Salome Ureña Campus next school year, a Children's Aid Society Community School.
The student's proposal includes sponsoring healthy cooking classes for their classmates and organizing several farmers markets in the school's front yard which will be open to the community. The students in the winning team are Yerika Cuevas, Genesys Durán, Luz Hiraldo, Lisbeth Rosado and Janay Salcedo. In her presentation, Janay indicated that one of the reasons affecting the health outcomes of her peers is the poor access to healthy food. "We want to open up their minds to see that healthy food can also be tasty" said Janay.
The winning proposal was selected among five projects presented by high school juniors from the City College Academy of the Arts. These students have also been receiving a semesterof classes on cardiovascular health risks and healthy cooking sponsored by the American Heart and American Stroke Associations.
The students will be assisted by Children's Aid Society staff in the completion of their project.

Learn new image-editing techniques in just a few minutes each week with our new series Photo Tools Weekly.
It's all about photography after the shoot: tips and techniques to help you work smarter in programs like Photoshop and Lightroom, and with plug-ins and lesser-known apps, too.
Each week photographer Jan Kabili will focus on a post-processing technique or powerful app you can use to enhance your photos or improve your post-capture workflow. Each movie is 10 minutes or less—bite-sized and to the point.
Jan tells us who it's for, why she created it, and what she'll cover:

Putting your finger on a particular photo in a large Lightroom library can be like finding a needle in a haystack. Keywords get my vote for the most powerful way to keep track of photos in Lightroom.
Here are my favorite tips for making keywording in Lightroom work for you:
By Jan Kabili | Wednesday, November 20, 2013
A dramatic sky can make a photograph look great. Lightroom's Graduated Filter tool offers a quick way to enhance a sky without affecting the rest of the photo.
1. Select the Graduated Filter tool in the tool strip in the Develop module, or press M on your keyboard. In the dropdown Graduated Filter panel, double click Effect to set all the controls to their defaults.
2. Drag the Exposure slider in the panel to the left. This step is optional, but it's a good way to see where a graduated filter is going to affect your photo.

Many photographers rely on Develop presets to quickly change the appearance of photos in Adobe Lightroom. You can extend the power of presets by modifying them to meet your current needs, or by combining presets on a photo.
Modifying presets
By modifying a preset, you can make a third-party preset your own or update one that you created yourself.
By Jan Kabili | Wednesday, November 13, 2013
You can quickly remove dust spots and unwanted content from your photos with Lightroom's Spot Removal tool. These tips will help you make the most of the tool.
1. Get help visualizing spots
When you're viewing a photo on a small screen, you may not see all the tiny dust spots that can show up later in a print. Use the Spot Removal tool's Visualize Spots option to locate subtle spots, like the dust on this window.
By Jan Kabili | Tuesday, November 12, 2013
Lightroom presets are a popular way to add great looks to your photos with just a few clicks. You can apply any of the presets that come with Lightroom or install third-party presets. When you're feeling creative, make your own unique Develop presets by following these simple steps:
1. Adjust a representative photo
Open a photo into Lightroom's Develop module, and adjust the image to the look you want using any of the controls in the panels on the right. For example, I've set the controls in the Basic panel to give this portrait a grungy faux HDR look.
By Jan Kabili | Monday, November 4, 2013
1. Organizing before importing
Before you start importing photos into Lightroom, it's a good idea to set up a folder structure for your photos outside of Lightroom. Make a top-level "Lightroom Photos" folder to hold all the photos you'll eventually import. This top-level folder is important because it will make it easier to move all your photos to a larger drive if necessary in the future. Inside the top-level folder, organize your existing photos into subfolders by shoot date or subject matter. The subfolders will help you locate files in the Folders panel in Lightroom's Library.
After organizing your existing photos into a folder structure like this, you can import them all into Lightroom together. Each time you import new photos after a shoot, you'll have a well-organized folder structure ready to receive them.

No need for Capello to face Turin prosecutors
ROME, May 21 (Reuters) - England's preparations for next week's friendly against the United States will not be disrupted by manager Fabio Capello having to travel to Italy to speak to prosecutors.
British media reported earlier this month that Capello had been asked to appear before Turin prosecutors investigating tax evasion allegations on May 27, the day before the match at Wembley.
But prosecutors said on Wednesday the England manager's lawyers would be able to provide a statement on his behalf.
'He will not come, his lawyers will present a statement. It's his right to do this, there is nothing negative about it,' Marco Gianoglio, one of the prosecutors working on the case, said.
Capello and his family are being investigated for alleged tax fraud over earnings from the period he was coach of Serie A side AS Roma, from 1999-2004.
The 61-year-old, who has said his finances are in order, is also separately being probed on suspicion of withholding information in March at a trial of six men accused of wrongdoing in connection with Gea World sports agency.
The agency used to manage the careers of some top Italian players and coaches. Luciano Moggi, the former Juventus director central to Italy's match-fixing affair, is among the defendants.
Capello has said he is confident he will be cleared in both cases.

Rated 5 / 5 stars
I created an account just to tell you that I have been listening to your songs for over 10 hours now whilst programming my upcoming game and your music has been an inspiration for me to do it for this long! Why? Because I'm so fixated on the idea of listening to your next song I need something to do whilst admiring your music!
Some of the comments on here, dude, wow... You have inspired so many people of all shapes, sizes and dreams. Artists, Music makers, Game makers you name it have listened to these songs and have drawn inspiration from them! I hope you are so proud of your talent and creations, because if I had made these songs, I wouldn't just hold tight to newgrounds, I'd expand to Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, EVERYTHING!!
From listening to the music you have created, I can tell that, with a few shoutouts from bigger people such as RWJ or RoosterTeeth (which you will get easily with music like this) you can become MASSIVE!
I hope you read this and decide to aim for becoming big, because not only can I then see your name up in lights like it deserves to be, I can also tell everybody that I was the incentive for you to do it ;)
Keep up the good work, friend, I have absolute faith that by the time you hang this all up in the closet to rest, you will have some massive achievements under your belt!
FUCK. AND. YES. Holy shit, that....
Wow. hahahaha, that is....moving, to say the least. Hopefully, I will become big one day doing the things I love, but I will have one principle: If I ever get famous and make a ridiculous amount of money, first thing is first; Help out my friends. They've always been there for me, and I gotta be there for them, and I gotta do it for the fans! Most of all, hopefully, I can do it for free.
I've always felt that I shouldn't have to make people pay to view my creations, I feel that if they think I deserve it, then they can give me whatever gifts they choose, be it praise, cookies, cash, whatever.
Thanks for making my month friend, I won't forget it.

The GSM Association's Anti-trust Legislation Compliance Policy Statement
It is the GSM Association's Policy that all of its business dealings are carried out in full compliance with applicable anti-trust legislation. The GSM Association is fully committed to ensuring that HQ employees and consultants, and Members and Associate Members of the Association adhere to this Policy. In pursuit of this objective, the GSM Association has adopted a Compliance Manual that sets out procedures on compliance matters. Procedures for monitoring compliance have also been introduced. The Compliance Manual is available on the Association's Infocentre.
All HQ employees, consultants and elected representatives/officials of the GSM Association are under an obligation to conduct all business dealings in accordance with any applicable anti-trust legislation. Each HQ employee, consultant (as appropriate) and elected official is required to read and familiarise him or herself thoroughly with the GSM Association's Compliance Policy and follow the guidelines contained in the GSM Association's Compliance Manual. This requirement applies in particular to the Association Chair, Deputy Chair, CEO, Members of the Executive Management Committee & Interim CEO Board and chairs and deputy chairs of Groups including working groups, regional groups, task forces, fora or any other GSM Association group.
Any HQ employee, consultant or elected official of the Association who by his/her conduct and/or business dealings intentionally or negligently breaches the GSM Association's Anti-trust Compliance Policy will be subject to investigation and/or disciplinary action. In cases of a serious breach of the Compliance Policy, such behaviour will be deemed to constitute gross misconduct and may result in immediate suspension and/or dismissal either from employment with the Association or, as referred to above, from Membership or Associate Membership of the Association.
Members and Associate Members are already under a general obligation to conduct all activities connected with the GSM Association in accordance with any applicable anti-trust legislation. All Members and Associate Members are to ensure that any of their employees involved in GSM Association activities and all those carrying out activities within the Association on behalf of Members and Associate Members are fully informed about the GSM Association's Compliance Policy as contained in this Manual. If the GSM Association becomes aware of any conduct by any employees or representatives of Members or Associate Members which may breach the Compliance Policy, the relevant Member(s) and/or Associate Member(s) will be advised. The GSM Association will work with the Member(s) and/or Associate Member(s) in question to investigate and rectify the situation. If this is not possible, or, in the unlikely event that a Member/Associate Member does not co-operate with the GSM Association in such circumstances, the Association may consider suspension or termination of membership.
The GSM Association undertakes to provide both general and specific training in order to ensure that HQ employees, consultants and others directly involved in the activities of the Association are fully informed as to the extent and the implications of the Compliance Policy and how it affects their business activities. Specialised training will be provided for the GSM Association's CEO, Executive Directors, directors and elected officials.
The GSM Association undertakes to monitor compliance with its Compliance Policy and to take positive action if it appears that the policy is not fully effective. The responsibility for maintaining and monitoring the Association's Compliance policy lies with the Association's Legal HQ and ultimately with the Association's Executive Management Committee & Interim CEO Board. The Compliance Policy will be reviewed regularly by Legal HQ to ensure that it is up-to-date with legislative changes and best practice policies. Where appropriate, external advisors may also be requested to perform audits of certain aspects of the compliance programme.

TALLAHASSEE — Florida already leads a lawsuit challenging the federal health care law, but state officials are going a step further and ignoring the law almost entirely — rejecting millions of federal dollars to provide health care for retirees, seniors, children and people with disabilities.
So far this year, Gov. Rick Scott and the Republican-led Legislature have returned or refused to spend at least $19 million in federal money associated with implementing the health care law. Scott also has stopped any state planning for the creation of mandated health care exchanges, which will allow consumers to comparison shop for health insurance plans.
The decisions put Florida at odds with conservative governors in Texas, Indiana and Wisconsin, who are fighting the constitutionality of the health care law on one hand and planning for it on the other.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit in Atlanta is scheduled to hear arguments today in the suit pitting 26 states against the federal government.
"Like a lot of other states, Florida is involved in the lawsuit itself, but there's a big difference," said Eddie Vale, a spokesperson for the Washington-D.C.-based nonprofit Know Your Care, established to educate people about the federal law. "While other states are suing, they are still going ahead with passing regulations that are necessary, working with Health and Human Services where necessary to bring the benefits of the federal health care law to their residents."
Take Wisconsin and Indiana, which are parties to Florida's lawsuit. Governors in both states have signed off on planning for the health care exchanges required by the federal law. In Florida, Scott has not.
Pennsylvania, also part of the lawsuit, has 2,684 residents signed up for a program that provides low-cost health insurance to people with pre-existing conditions, such as cancer and diabetes, who can't buy coverage anyplace else. Pennsylvania runs its own program with funding from the federal government and has more enrollees than any other state.
In Florida, only 770 people are enrolled in the same plan, and the state has declined to run its own program.
Texas has accepted $276 million for a program that provides health insurance to people over 55 who have retired but aren't yet eligible for Medicare. Much of that money is going to Texas state employees.
Florida, by contrast, has accepted only $15 million for the early retirement program — with local governments taking the money. Scott is planning to accept $37 million for the program, but that was because the payout was agreed to by former Gov. Charlie Crist, officials said.
The issue in Florida isn't necessarily over the money, it's the portion of the federal law that requires people to buy health insurance or pay a tax penalty. That requirement is to take effect in January 2014.
Florida filed suit challenging the constitutionality of the so-called "individual mandate" provision moments after President Barack Obama signed the act into law in March 2010, arguing that the government can't force people to buy a product.
Twenty-five states joined the lawsuit, along with the National Federation of Independent Business.
A federal judge in Pensacola ruled in January in favor of Florida and the other plaintiffs, concluding that because the mandate is unconstitutional, the entire law is unconstitutional.
The case is expected to be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court. Scott has said he has no plans to implement the federal law until after that decision.
With that in mind, he returned a $1 million grant that would have helped pay for a system that would allow consumers to monitor insurance rates.
And the Legislature stiff-armed seven federal grants this year worth more than $17 million available through the health care law.
The rejected money included $2 million for hospice care for children, $8 million for construction of community health centers and a first installment on a five-year, $35.7 million grant through the Money Follows the Person program.
The program, created in 2005 under President George W. Bush, aims to keep elderly and disabled people out of nursing homes by providing home health aides and other services. The grants save states money because Medicaid usually pays if clients stay in nursing homes.
Advocates for the aging are alarmed by the decision to reject the money.
"Florida needs every dollar it can get to delay the growth of nursing home usage,'' said Larry Polivka, director of the Claude Pepper Center, a Tallahassee think tank on aging. "This started with Bush. It's a Republican program, for God's sake.''
The Legislature also discontinued a federal grant that helped poor people get a break on their Medicare costs. Various programs pay Medicare's premiums, copayments and deductibles and can save people $1,000 to $3,000 a year. The problem is getting the word out. Many people don't know they qualify.
Over the past 18 months, the Area Agency on Aging of Pinellas and Pasco counties said it helped 1,400 people apply for the subsidies. Potential savings top $4 million a year, the agency estimates. Without a grant extension, the program will shut down.
House Speaker Dean Cannon decided well before the legislative session started not to implement the law, sending out a call to state agencies in October to determine how much money and time had already been spent on its programs.
"For all the grant money, it boiled down to simple principle: We were not going to be hypocritical," said state Rep. Rob Schenck, R-Spring Hill, chair of the House Health and Human Services Committee. Schenck said it would be odd to fight the health care law and work to implement it at the same time.
Legislators also plan to ask voters to amend the state Constitution next year to ban "laws or rules from compelling any person or employer" to buy health insurance. The measure, which needs approval by 60 percent of Floridians, would not stop the federal law in Florida if it survives a court challenge. But supporters say it would at least ban similar programs at the state level.
Meanwhile, activists in Florida are working to let people know what aspects of the health care law are in place, regardless of state roadblocks.
"It's easy to maybe conclude that implementation is not happening in Florida, but the fact is it's happening," said Patrick Cannon, a spokesman for a group called Florida Community Health Action Information Network. "It's been happening because there are so many aspects of the law that have nothing to do with the state."
The limited pre-existing condition insurance program is just one example.
"People can take advantage of a lot of these benefits now." Cannon, who is not related to the speaker, said. "And they might not be aware of it."
Times staff writer Stephen Nohlgren contributed to this report. Janet Zink can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or (850) 224-7263.

05 February 2010
As you may have noticed that the posting this week has been a little slow. Apologies dear readers (hi mom!), but it has been a combination of real life and other stuff that I have been working on that has caused the lull. But I have been writing, just not on here, but here are some links to the stuff I have been up to and some thoughts on the week (so far)
Stuff I've been up to:
- I have been working on the Olympic Hockey Blog, which you can find on the right hand side of the page. If you missed them, there were player profiles on the majority of Canucks participating, Lightning players and Shea Weber (he's in a category of his very own)
- I've also begun writing a series of stuff about the Olympics, first off was a look at the two rinks that the hockey games will be played at called Vancouver 2010: The Venues
- After a three week hiatus, I wrote my NW (and some Pacific) Division links over at Cycle Like the Sedins
- Bernier is trash
- So is our 3rd line
- I miss Willie Mitchell
- Ottawa has won 11 straight games
- Washington has a win streak of 12 games
- Kovalchuk turned down a contract offer of $101 million dollars. Un-freakinreal. Wow. Why? He thought the club was shaky, so why not just go the NMC route?
- In the 40 minutes away from my computer today, Kovy was traded, to the Devils. Whatevs. I won't stop believing that they play boring hockey until I see it, and since I don't watch their games, I guess I won't
- If having an Olympic break means that we have a trade deadline week following by another trade deadline day after the Olympics, can we have the Olympics every year? Screw the All-Star break, these past few days have been unreal. Remember last year the biggest trade was Jokinen to the Flames?
- Hitchcock has finally been fired. I personally thought it would have been after the loss to the Canucks at the beginning of January. Actually, it probably should have been right after the loss to the Canucks at the beginning of January
- Some sports analysts do a fantastic job on twitter
- Cody Hodgson played tonight for the first time with the Brampton Battalion. He had two assists, that sigh of relief is the realization there might be a light at the end of the 3rd line catastrophe tunnel
And Ovechkin scored his 500th goal with only one hand:

Rick Santorum Goes After Ron Paul Following Big Polling Boost
By: ABC Digital
Updated at
(CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa) — Just hours after a new poll was released showing Rick Santorum surging to third place in Iowa with only six days to go before the caucuses, the GOP hopeful spoke to about 100 supporters and those still making up their mind for almost two hours Wednesday evening.
During the question-and-answer part of the town hall, Santorum was asked about Ron Paul's support in Iowa, and the former Pennsylvania senator let loose on the Texas congressman.
"Ron Paul says he's going to eliminate five departments. Ron Paul passed one bill in 20 years. What gives you the idea that he can eliminate anything? I mean, he has absolutely no track record of building any kind of coalition to get anything done anywhere," Santorum said. "I understand the appeal that Ron Paul has: it's simple, it's short — but there's no track record there."
Santorum also went after Paul on his foreign policy stances, calling him "far to the left of President Obama."
"I mean he's out in the Dennis Kucinich wing of the Democratic Party. Don't laugh!" Santorum said to the crowd as they began to chuckle, and they immediately got quiet. "That's where he is. He may be left of Dennis Kucinich, okay? So that's where he is. This country is not going to elect Dennis Kucinich to be president of the United States. I don't care how much government he wants to cut.
"What people in Iowa like about Ron Paul is all of his economic talk which requires Congress to act of which he has showed no ability to get them to do," Santorum added. "What they don't like about Ron Paul is this craziness about cutting the military in half and getting our troops out of everywhere. He can do that. He can actually order that on day one — all our troops around the world to come home."
He said the "danger" of Paul's international policies "should just chill every Iowan."
"People say, 'Well he won't really do that.' Well he'll be 78 years old. How many 78-years-olds say — after saying this for 30 years — are going to change their mind?" Santorum asked. "Let's just be honest about it. By then you are sort of set in your ways. It's not like this is new, so let's get serious about what message Iowa is going to send to the country, and the message has to be that we want a responsible conservative."
Paul is actually 76 years old.
After the event, Santorum told reporters that despite the clear boost in support the CNN/Time poll showed "we have a lot of work to do" and pledged to keep "working hard."

One of the borough's most historic landmarks has received approval to bid for more than £3.5million as part of a major regeneration project.
Headstone Manor and Museum has secured support from the Heritage Lottery Fund for its plans to refurbish both the manor house and its 16th century tithe barn.
Approval of the bid means Harrow Borough Council, which operates the site, will receive £255,000 to help develop the plans to apply for the full grant later this year.
The first phase of the plans will be the tithe barn which will be closed and refurbished, costing £850,000 and paid for by the council, to be reopened in the autumn of 2014.
Portfolio holder for community and culture councillor Nizam Ismail said: "I am delighted to hear Harrow Museum has received this support from the Heritage Lottery Fund.
"Headstone Manor is of regional and national significance and this funding could help us find a way to fully restore this local treasure.
"We are lucky to live in such a culturally rich borough with so much history and we are committed to preserving these important landmarks for our residents."
Money from the Heritage Lottery Fund will be spent on the complete restoration of the manor house which would then hold the museum and displays, which are currently in the Tithe Barn.
After completion of the restoration project the barn will then be used to bring in more revenue for the site and will be rented out for events including weddings, conferences and markets.

Count us among the realists when it comes to interpreting the news that the unemployment rate declined and the nation added 212,000 new private-sector jobs last month. Good news, yes, but it's hardly enough to declare a long-term trend.
For starters, we don't put a lot of stock in that 8.5 percent unemployment rate last month, despite its being the fourth consecutive monthly decline and the lowest level since the president's second month in office. This statistic can be deceptive because discouraged Americans who have given up their job search aren't tallied.
Of more significance is the creation of all those new private-sector jobs last month. Construction, retail and manufacturing all posted growth in December, and more Americans moved from part-time to full-time jobs, all signs that employers are emerging from a hiring hiatus.
Still, the nation isn't adding jobs quickly enough. Economists say we need around 340,000 new jobs each month to sustain a recovery. At that rate, the economy would pick up about 4 million jobs annually; 8 million jobs were lost during the recession.
Moreover, the U.S. economy isn't immune to a relapse. Europe's debt crisis remains a ticking time bomb, along with the prospect of higher energy prices if U.S.-Iran tensions accelerate. Employment hits also will result from the Pentagon's plans to reduce the size of the military and as troops return from Iraq and Afghanistan. Four years into the worst housing slump in decades, this remains a drag on the U.S. economy.
But the most insidious threat to the fragile recovery could come from inside the Beltway. Last year, partisan rancor over the debt ceiling battered budding economic confidence and led to a historic downgrade of U.S. debt.
Congress must avoid another such confidence-shattering debacle. It should extend federal unemployment benefits and payroll tax cuts, which are set to expire next month, and pay for the extensions through spending cuts. Additionally, progress must be made toward reforming tax policies in ways that would increase U.S. competitiveness worldwide and put more money in the pockets of average Americans.
These changes, along with an overhaul of Social Security and Medicare, would go a long way to set up the economy for sustainable job growth. These changes have to begin now, not later. The federal government owes creditors roughly as much as the value of all goods and services the U.S. economy produces annually. Left unchecked, this is a jobs killer, both for the present and for future generations.
Congress and the White House must get their work done correctly; there's not much margin for error. Likewise, more than a few things have to go right for December's economic news to translate into real recovery.
Behind the December jobs numbers
Good news …
The unemployment rate continued to improve, and is now at 8.5 percent.
Private employers added 212,000 jobs, increasing the private-sector jobs created last year to 1.9 million.
Manufacturing employment expanded by 23,000 after four months of stagnant results.
… and bad
Job growth is well below what's needed for a robust recovery.
Jobless rates for adult women (7.9 percent), teenagers (23.1 percent), whites (7.5 percent), blacks (15.8 percent) and Hispanics (11.0 percent) showed virtually no change.
The number of long-term unemployed (those jobless for 27 weeks or more) accounts for 42.5 percent of the unemployed.

Anime of Tomorrow

Second Anniversary
July 6, 2013Posted by on
Two years ago, I announced that I was starting an anime blog. Based on my previous attempts to share my thoughts with the world up until that point, I wasn't optimistic that this would be anything more than a temporary diversion that I would abandon after a few weeks. But here I am not only still going strong, but expanding the scope of my projects to greater and greater objectives.
I set out to make my voice heard in order to counter the mainstream opinions and give anime fans a chance to think about not what they like, but why they like it (and often why I don't). To all my readers, I won't say that I couldn't have done it without you—because I most certainly could have. But the journey wouldn't have been nearly as fun and interesting without you. And for that I say thank you.
I'd like to take some time now and reminisce about some of the high points over the past two years and do a "greatest hits" list of posts I enjoyed writing and/or others enjoyed reading. So I invite you to make yourself comfortable as I take you on a journey that started back in summer 2011…gosh it feels so much longer. Has it really only been two years? Read more of this post
Madoka Magica x Magic the Gathering
May 21, 2013Posted by on
Hi everyone. I just wanted to make sure you all heard about the new project I've started over on my new blog, Approach Phase. If you're a fan of Madoka Magica or Magic the Gathering–or better yet, both–you're going to want to check out the first two posts I've written about the Magic the Gathering set I've designed featuring Madoka Magica. It's my hope it will be a fun take on Madoka for the anime fans and an exciting exploration of Magic the Gathering through the eyes of someone who is very immersed in Japanese TCGs for the card game fans. Please check it out, subscribe and follow my new twitter account to stay up to date.

Approach Phase – Another Blog has Arrived
May 13, 2013Posted by on
As I close in on the two-year anniversary of Ashita no Anime, I've decided to split up my content for the sake of keeping things organized into specific audiences who may not appreciate how I've just been dumping all of my interests into a single blog. Ashita no Anime should be about anime and while the games I've been covering here are anime-inspired, that's not really the same thing (in Ghostbusters terms, I want to avoid crossing the streams).
As you may have guessed, I'm a prolific card gamer here in Japan and I'm currently playing four different games—Weiss Schwarz, CHAOS, Victory Spark and Precious Memories. The focus of Approach Phase will be Precious Memories, but now that I have a home for talking trading cards in general, I think I'm going to finally start expanding on some other, related projects that I think you're all going to enjoy.
The process of moving content from Ashita no Anime to this new blog is still a work in progress (a lot of links are still empty) so keep checking back over the course of the week and be sure to update your links so you don't miss out on any new information. Also be sure to follow my new Twitter feed specifically for TCGs, @approachphase.
Madoka > Jesus – Human vs God
April 22, 2013Posted by on
I didn't want to discuss these kinds of topics too often because while Charles over at Beneath the Tangles has made a name for himself as the Christian aniblogger, for the longest time I didn't want to be the atheist aniblogger because I didn't want to limit myself on the material I wrote about.
But as I've been on a little break-ish sort of period to think about the future of the site, I realized that having a focus on one idea I'm well-versed and passionate about doesn't preclude me from writing about other stuff. So in what I'm expecting to become something of a new theme, today I'm finally getting around to beginning my analysis of why Madoka is a better savior than Jesus.
I say "beginning" because I started writing and ended up with so much material I filled over six pages in MS Word and I'm still not done (one of my usual review posts only takes up half a page). In order to make the reading and commenting easier for everyone, I'm breaking this piece up into articles I'm going to post once per day. So check back every day this week for more content. Special thanks to Charles and Tommy at Anime Bowl for writing some posts here and here that started this fire under my butt and got me motivated to do something I've put off for too long.

Neon Alley – The All Anime Channel on PS3
October 3, 2012Posted by on
Getting access to anime in America through official means hasn't been cheap or easy. And aside from Saturday night Toonami on Adult Swim, if you want to watch anime on TV you'd need a lot more than the basic cable package. Which is why I'm excited by the prospect of a new way for viewers to get access to anime in America. As part of a venture by VIZ Media, PS3 owners can subscribe to a 24×7 anime channel called Neon Alley. Here's their promotional video.
This is my breakdown on Neon Alley. For about $7 a month you get access to an all-anime channel. I want to look at exactly what this means. Consider a cable subscription can cost upwards of $60 a month. Then, investing in a 12 episode series on BD can be anywhere from $30 to $60 or WAY more. If you're as big an anime fan as I am and you've got a certain series you may be on the fence about, this is a perfectly reasonable price to get a lot of anime for your dollar.
The next question to ask is, "What anime DO I get to watch?" Well, sure enough you'll see VIZ licensed / Toonami staples like Naruto, Bleach, One Piece and Death Note. Then they have the classics like InuYasha and Berserk. But I'm pleased to see some other impressive titles in their lineup that I think a lot of people may otherwise overlook without access to a service like Neon Alley that lets you sample series that have gone under the radar. Some of my favorites from this list include Blue Exorcist, Lagrange, Vampire Knight and Zetman. And while it's not been announced to show on Neon Alley just yet, VIZ has licensed Accel World, one of the best anime to come out so far this year.
The one complaint I have is that the current list of shows is action, action / comedy and more action. While that's fine to get a base started, I worry that it's going to give anime fans with much broader tastes some hesitation before they jump on board. But all in all, this is a solid idea in my opinion. Anime in America needs these kinds of outlets to grow communities and ease access to lesser-known shows that deserve more attention. So if you want to watch dubbed, uncensored / uncut anime, anytime you want and at a really good price (and you have a PS3) go check out Neon Alley. And if you want to wait, I think this is worth paying attention to future developments because my instincts are telling me this channel may just succeed at doing for anime what Steam has done for video games and Netflix for movies.
First Anniversary
July 6, 2012Posted by on
Happy birthday Ashita no Anime. On this day one year ago I made my first blog post here at the start of the summer 2011 anime season. Looking back I would have hoped my opinions that often diverge from the mainstream of anime bloggers had generated more controversy and debate. But I also suppose that I'm partially to blame for not publicizing myself and making a bigger presence on other blogs throughout the community. All the same, I didn't set out to stir up trouble by creating this blog. I think I've accomplished my goal of growing my passion for anime by becoming a more analytical, vocal critic and offering a resource for a few who want to have a challenger, small though my voice may be. Thanks to everyone who commented and supported me over the past year.
First Anniversary and Your Questions
May 16, 2012Posted by on
It recently dawned on me that with the spring 2012 anime season about halfway over, there's less than two months to go before Ashita no Anime's first anniversary. I have to say that I'm very pleased with myself for holding to my resolve to become more than just a consumer of anime and expand my passion into writing.
So as this blog turns one year old and after reflecting on my flop and the associated constructive criticism that came from the Aniblog tourney I've decided it's time to seriously start expanding into other areas of discourse besides simple reviews. I've done it a few times already with Vocaloid, Kids on the Slope and Katawa Shoujo but I need to keep pushing to see if there's some unexplored, unclaimed territory that I can take for myself and find my unique niche. Clearly, simply being the counterpoint to majority rule on a lot of anime isn't enough (as much as I enjoy making my opinion heard).
So as old as this internet tradition is, to mark this milestone I want to address any questions my readers may have. Please ask me anything you're interesting in hearing me talk about or even personal questions to help you get to know more about me—keeping in mind that this is still an anime blog and I'll be giving priority to any anime questions that come my way. To give myself a deadline to shoot for I promise to write at least one answer post by May 26. Ask away in the comments section below or if you want to keep out of the spotlight you can send me an email as well.
Aniblog Tourney (follow-up)
April 26, 2012Posted by on
First, my thanks to everyone who voted for me in the Aniblog Tourney. Your support is greatly appreciated even if I didn't win my bracket. But during the course of the event I spoke with many fellow bloggers and learned some things that I'm going to use to make the site better.
The first change is going to be my username. Formerly アレクザンダー (the katakana for Alexander) this is certainly too difficult for the average viewer to read and type. I'm now going to go by Marlin-sama, which is a Japanese equivalent of my typical username, "Lord Marlin." Of course, I won't mind if anyone wants to call me Alexander or Lord Marlin.
Second, as you can already see, I'm going to try breaking up my text into smaller paragraphs to help organize thoughts for easier reading. Also to help with organization I'm going to be adding more categories to ease searches. I plan to go back through all of my posts and get them all labeled by genre and possibly a few other useful categories.
Lastly, I'm hoping to refocus my motives from simply reviewing EVERYTHING to thinking more about why I like the shows I love. However, I'm going to be keeping Twitter as my primary medium for thinking more broadly about all the anime I watch as I finish each episode. From here I think my first project is going to be giving the Precious Memories section of the site a bit more attention.
Through this I hope to make Ashita no Anime a better blog—as both a tool for myself as the writer and as intellectual discourse for my readership. It's here that I'm going to start another new addition—asking you the reader for your opinion more directly in order to get you involved. So…what are your thoughts on this new formula? Am I being too ambitious? Or is it a change in the right direction? I've been writing for almost a year now and I've acquired a modest group of followers, so I'll ask you; what would you like to see on this blog that has been lacking?
Again, thanks to everyone involved in the Aniblog Tourney and best of luck to all the competitors. I hope we all make the most of this fantastic opportunity.
Aniblog Tourney
April 23, 2012Posted by on
Hello everyone, especially those of you visiting my site for the first time from the Aniblog Tourney. Welcome to Ashita no Anime—or if you prefer the English equivalent, "Tomorrow's Anime." My name is Alexander. I'd like to take a moment to introduce myself and properly explain my motivation for writing this blog as well as the goals I hope to accomplish through my work.
I'm currently an English teacher living and working in Japan. I started watching anime seriously in 2003—so I've been a fan for nearly 9 years now. I mark that year as my introduction to anime because prior I didn't really know what anime was. Unlike a lot of anime fans I didn't grow up with this media so my opinions tend not to be colored by nostalgia and my tastes in anime are incredibly broad (if you care to check out my viewing history on My Anime List you can see that I'm more than willing to watch just about anything). I was president of my university's anime club for 2 years and I graduated with a technical communication degree. This gives me some professional legitimacy for being a writer and a critic because I have received training in this kind of background (for those of you who actually care about that sort of thing, because I'll be the first to admit that writing is more about practice than any amount of education).
Now then…why did I start writing this blog? Well, to make a long story short it's because I couldn't find another aniblogger who shared my tastes and opinions on anime. I found myself disagreeing constantly with the opinions and legitimizations of other critics and so I decided that it was time to throw my hat into the ring and stand up for underrepresented fans like me. I aspire to a higher standard than lowering myself to degrading anyone else with personal attacks or insinuating that my opinions are the only valid ones. Really, I think the majority of media review can be summed up as personal taste. There's more than one correct answer and dissenting opinions are always welcome as long as they can be supported. It's also a part of my goal to promote conversation and for that it's important to have someone at the table who has a genuine views contrary to mainstream for the purpose of creating intellectual debate.
I continue to write this blog for many reasons, but my main motivation is because it's fun. I've always enjoyed writing and sharing my ideas with others. Despite the fact that I primarily only do reviews on this site, I've been able to connect with some great people who—even if we vehemently disagree with each other—understand and appreciate our mutual differences. My other primary goal is to provide a place where people can read short and concise reviews of anime of all genres without getting dragged into a long editorial that takes too much time; bogging itself down with too many graphics or padded language. As a small side project I'm currently working on providing some resources to fans who can't read Japanese for the Precious Memories trading card game, but so far I've limited that portion of the site to the Madoka Magica setlist translations.
If you've made it to the end of my unusually long-winded spiel thanks for your patience and interest in Ashita no Anime. I'd love to hear your opinions and advice for how to make my work better. If you like what you see and want to support my objectives be sure to subscribe both to this blog site as well as my twitter account and be sure to vote for me in the Aniblog tourney. Lastly, I'd like to give a shoutout to my biggest supporter, TWWK. Go check out his blog and give him some votes in the next round of the tournament. Thanks and have a great day!
Precious Memories Translations
September 26, 2011Posted by on
I've become so inspired by the recent Madoka☆Magica expansion for the Japanese trading card game, Precious Memories that I've decided to expand the scope of Ashita no Anime and start translating cards. It's my hope to add more titles in the future besides just Madoka.
I ask anyone who might be reading to link back to my Precious Memories section and help me get this information out to the people who will need it most because I've searched all over the internet and I'm confident this is the first English language website that is providing translations for full sets of cards from Precious Memories. For the time being, please enjoy the new additions to the site.

Mumbai, July 10 -- M Night Shyamalan's latest film, The Last Airbender, released in the country this weekend and the director is hopeful it will do well here because of its Asian influences. "Indian families will find it interesting," he asserts.
Shyamalan, whose first film, Praying With Anger (1992), was shot in India, is all praise for AR Rahman, who he says is "such a prize for India". He also expressed the desire to work with him in the future. "I'm considering bringing one of my ideas to India. I'm really keen on shooting one of my films here," he admits.
The Last Airbender, Shyamalan's first action film, was made on a reported budget of $250 million, a huge investment for a director whose last two movies did not do well.
When quizzed on how he plans to recover his investment, he retorts, "I don't know where you got these numbers from."
Hits and flops
The film has been panned universally, but Shyamalan is positive: "I'm an artiste and I love what I do. I'd want all my movies to make money and The Last Airbender took off to a good start. If you insist on talking about numbers, seven out of my eight movies have been hits, which is a pretty good record."
Shyamalan, who shot to fame with the supernatural thriller, Sixth Sense (1999), has veered away from the occult for the first time in The Last Airbender. Has he ever been scared by a true-life ghostly experience? He laughs, "Nothing specific like what you see in my movies. But I believe strongly that these things are possible."

Hey, Fashionista/os! My name is Masoma Imasogie, but my family and friends call me Mas. I joined the Collegefashionista Style Guru family second semester of my freshman year in Washington D.C. at George Washington University. Since then, a couple things have changed. I finished my freshman year at GWU and will be transferring to the University of Pennsylvania in the fall. At UPenn, I am planning on majoring in Communications with a minor in Fine Arts, and if all goes as planned, I will be continuing my fashion career. However, before all that "fun" academic stuff begins, I get to have an amazing summer and share my summer outfits with you guys!
This summer I will be taking on the new STYLE GURU STYLE category showcased every Tuesday. Oh, and if you thought transferring from GWU to UPenn was crazy, check this out — this summer I will also be interning with a showroom in Los Angeles, California!
In the past, I've interned in a children's boutique and even worked backstage at D.C. Fashion Week, but eventually, I aspire to style celebs. I would love to work for E! or The Style Network and be able to have a job were I can mix social media, pop culture and, of course, fashion. Until then, I will try my hardest to keep you updated with all you need to know about fashion, style and strutting to the beat of your own drum.
I get asked all the time to categorize my style, and to me, thats like someone asking me to pick my favorite Beyoncé song. It just cannot be done. However, I can tell you a few things regarding my style. My top three favorite stores are without a doubt: Zara, Topshop and Madewell. Some people that inspire my style are: Kylie Jenner (Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian), Vanessa Hudgens and Lauren Conrad. My favorite youtube Fashionistas are: Dulce Candy, Meghan Rosette and Lauren Elizabeth and my favorite blogs at the moment are: i hate blonde, Lovely Pepa and WEWOREWHAT. See the combination of all that inspiration by clicking: my Instagram.
So anyways, I just wanted to say hey, and express my extreme excitement to be apart of the CollegeFashionista family. I cant wait to showcase my style to all of you! For now, I'll leave you with a quote from one of my favorite fashion icons: Coco Chanel. "Fashion fades, only style remains the same."

It granted my superuser access, but I now want to install DooMKernel on it. I have been trying for a week with no luck. I tried doing everything on all of the threads thst I have read, but have gotten nowhere. I have CWM Auto Installer installed and used that to gain tecoveryaccess. I also have flashtool and drivers installed on my computer and my phone connects appropriatly to it. However, I have had no luck figuring out a way to install the DooMKernel Boot.IMG onto my device. I relunctantly have put this process on hold and am considering givingup. I don't want to though. I want to figure this out if possible. Has anyone out there had any luck installing DooMKernel or any custom kernels onto a carrier locked Play? Any advice or instructions would be greatlyappreciated.

The pair plan a quiet, intimate ceremony, to be witnessed by family and close friends from the FBI, SEAL Team 16, and Troubleshooters, Incorporated, including Sam Starrett and Alyssa Locke. But the holiday season brings more to the happy couple than they expect.
A waterfall coming through their kitchen ceiling, a bat colony in the attic, old family tensions...even an international incident can't dampen their spirits. But add to that a parade of unexpected guests, including a reporter looking for a scoop, an ex-lover hell-bent on causing trouble, and a dangerous stalker, and suddenly the wedding is poised to unravel in chaos.
But nothing will stop Jules and Robin from getting their happy ending, because along with a guest list featuring the most elite counterterrorism force in the world, they have their own secret weapon - true love.
©2007 Suzanne Brockmann; (P)2007 Brilliance Audio, Inc.
"A little less talk, please"
This is a pretty good Troubleshooters story -- tough guys, smart women, danger, sexy stuff and heroes all around. I like the way gays are accepted and treated as family without hesitation.
My only wish is that the author had left out some of the dialogue between the gay characters & shown us the scene in a more subtle way. Do gays really talk that way? I don't think ANYone could have so many lame conversations. Well maybe they could but it makes the storey sound like a group of junior high school kids giggling in biology class.
I'm a voracious fiction reader/listener but focus mostly on Sci-fi, fantasy (urban and alternate & other world), and romance. A mixture of these is what I love to find. Sci-fi to challenge my mind, fantasy to make me grin, and romance to turn my mind off to.
"Pluses and Minuses"
I'll start by saying, I've read every book in the series coming to this one. And simply put if you haven't I would not recommend this. If you've read the series and love Jules and are rooting for Robin, its worth the buy. Especially as, and you'll hear this in the afterwards, the profits of this book go to support equal marriage rights. all of this being said I can't say it's one of Suzanne Brockmann best books. she falls into what I consider her major shortcoming of telling rather than showing. as she's done in the last several books of the series she has a tendency to jump action scenes, and describe them later with dialogue. in this book that's used as a mechanism to try and understand what dependence of military and law enforcement go through. however it does windup with a very passive narrative. This is also not helped by an extremely monotone narrator, if you're listening to the audio book. the lively, and yes female, narration for jewels in the previous audio books brought him to life in a way that this one fell flat. This might also be with another reviewer came to see as Juvenal dialogue, as opposed to sharp sarcasm. This is my honest opinion about the book I thought someone who is a fan of the series should be commenting.
I wanted to like this book. I am not familiar with the TROUBLESHOOTER series, but I found the story very choppy. There was a lot of time spent developing characters, which is great, but then it seemed like all the momentum building to the climax lost steam, and it just kind of ended. There were some charming scenes, and some very good, honest situations. But in general, I had trouble finishing this one out. I do applaud the author for treating a delicate subject with great care and thought. I was also impressed with the prologue that made the story personal. But I am sorry to say, I would have trouble recommending this title to all but a few of my friends. The performance was mediocre, with the best characterization being Sam. I found the digitized telephone conversations unnecessary. And I realize this will makes me seem petty, but thank goodness not all gay men are as annoying as Robin. I couldn't wait for his scenes to be over.
"All Through The Night"
The narration was excellent. Different accents for different characters bringing them bouncing to life. A fun story that I have read several times.
"Take it in context"
I won't recommend this as a stand alone audiobook/novel, but as part of the series, this was a great chapter.
-Robin was too effiminate in the reading. Really, he's an action hero! Come on! His character was written a little effete, but this was taken too far in the reading.
-The relationship felt a little labored sometime, over written with dialog. No one, even the superGayMan, talks like this.
-The straight love story was dull and silly and didn't add to the story line in any way. It detracted, partly because there was no substance, but also because I won't be able to see a really developed story about Dolphina in the future. Bleh, opportunity missed.
BUT...I still was strangely compelled to enjoy this novel.
-I love Jules & Robin's story, and I needed this to make me feel more complete. I wanted to hear about success, fighting through alcoholism and coming out. This was a denumant to the last novel in which their love was a feature.
-I love that a gay couple gets to be the central story line. I support, in a general way that has involved little more than fundraisers and signing of all relevant petitions, the civil rights of gay couples. This story helped me continue to embrace the diversity and yet the homogeneity of love. People love other people, not gender-specific-noun love opposing-gender-specific-noun. This also made me cry at then end, although Prop 8 may have been why I felt so sad when I heard the author's note at the end. This book made me want to do more....
-I was happy to hear the Joneses are doing well. :) I know, small thing, but I'm happy. I always fall at least a little (ok, mostly a lot) in love with Brockmann's characters and the fact that they are not always wrapped neatly up between the covers of one story helps me keep them alive in my mind.
Overall, I recommend to current fans, but this is NOT a representative book. Go read Hot Target, then Breaking Point, THEN All Through the Night.
Romance & espionage are my faves–but I like/review almost everything! If review is helpful please vote 'yes.' Consider following me. :-)
"I Love the Series-BUT This was 8+ Hours of Whining"
Yes, however I cannot recommend this book.
I'll probably take a break from the Troubleshooter series but I will finish eventually.
Sure, he was fine.
I'd cut the whole book from the series. There was 20 minutes of 'action' (seriously) and the rest of the book was about the prelude to Jules & Robin's wedding. I've never heard such whining and insecurity in a couple - real or imaginary...with hero Sam [from previous books] acting as therapist.
This was 8 hours of [I assume] Brockmann's views on gay marriage, and political views on war, torture, etc.
I LOVE The Troubleshooters series and would recommend any of the previous books for action, adventure and romance.
NOTE: Strong language
"Decent read, disappointing listen"
I've read this book before and it was fun if a little cheesy because come on. We get it. They're in love, awesome - lets have some plot. However, the narrator was terrible. Absolutely TERRIBLE. He doesnt know how to read aloud. There's no inflection, no very little emotion, and he reads the dialogue so flatly that I had to wonder if he had a pulse. Pick up this book in paperback or as an ebook and enjoy the story. Dont do like I did and waste a credit or some money on something so disappointing.
"Somewhat Disappointing......"
Jules and Robin are two of my very favorite recurring characters (favorites being Sam & Izzy) in the Troubleshooter Series but this installment of the series fell somewhat short of the mark... it was rushed and to abbreviated in story details...I had long anticipated their story and was let down for the first time in this series with Suzanne's writing.... however having said all that I would still recommend this story as part of the series as it is worth a listen and it does add to the story arc that Suzanne is developing all the time.
I love Suzanne Brockman's books and her characters are amazing, but I thought this book was boring and, I'm sorry, just a vehicle for her to try to change views on gay relationships. There was really no plot. It was just about Jules and Robin and endless conversations between them. I love Jules' character in the other books and I am glad he a Robin got together, but please, it was so trite and I found myself thinking why am I wasting my time listening to this. Sure, her other books have a central love story but they also have excitement, suspense and action. This book had none.
"Mainstream gay romance - wonderful!"
This book was wonderful, however you should be aware that it will be best enjoyed AFTER reading Hot Target (available here at audible.com) and Force of Nature. Those books can be read out of order of the full series, but for the Jules / Robin romance saga you should think of this book as Part 3 of their story.
Jules and Robin are two favorite secondary gay characters from past books in the Troubleshooters series, and they are so worth getting to know! Brockmann does a great job bringing gay romance (NOT erotica, there are no heavy sex scenes so don't expect porn) to mainstream publishing. There is also a secondary story with Robin's assistant Dolphina and a reporter named Will, which was very enjoyable. And true to Brockmann, there is plenty of laughs, action and suspense!!
My only nay say is that I have to agree with a previous review about some of the dialog, but my issue is that this book has really made Robin overly feminine while Jules remained very alpha. In previous books they were always so equal in strength of character, but now we see Robin at times as a stereotypical emotional gay man. For someone who has just come out of a very deep closet, it didn't always ring true. But overall I did love this book, and I so hope we see more Robin and Jules in future books.

The marijuana market is growing…
With the help from foreign…
A huge fire is sweeping through Canada's oil sands region in Fort McMurray, Alberta, already having destroyed an entire neighborhood and forcing 80,000 people to flee.
The fire started in Fort McMurray on Sunday and spread quickly to the outskirts, prompting what is being categorized as the largest wildfire evacuation mission in the history of Alberta.
Related: This Data Shows The Shale Debt Crisis Is Hitting Record Levels
This city is the focal point of the Canadian oil sands industry in Alberta, which is home to the third largest oil reserves in the world.
The uncontrolled wildfire has forced a mandatory evacuation for the entire city, due to rapid spreading, and the routes in and out of the city's south are blocked. The authorities are directing evacuees to the north.
In the meantime, hot and dry winds are threatening to worsen the wildfire.
Related: Low Oil Prices? Texas Is Doing Just Fine
According to Canadian media reports, many evacuees are fleeing to oil and gas company work camps in outlying areas, where emergency shelters and services have reportedly been set up.
These camps have been increasingly deserted due to losses of jobs as a result of low oil prices beginning in mid-2014. More than 40,000 oil and gas jobs have been cut in Canada since 2014.
Suncor Energy, whose oil sands operations are closest to Fort McMurray, said its plant was safe, but it was reducing crude production in the region to allow employees and families to reach safety.
Related: Why Iran's Shale Oil Discovery Won't Add To The Glut
Shell Canada also said it would open its oil sands camp to evacuees.
CNOOC's subsidiary, Nexen Energy, also has the Long Lake oil-sands project, close to Fort McMurray. The company has said it was likewise slowing operations in light of the wildfire and the evacuation mandate.
On Wednesday, oil rose above $45 due the reduced output.

Section 9
An Agenda for Research in Ambulatory Patient Safety
Topic Two—Strategies to Improve Care and Research
- We have little "real data" on ambulatory health care (ambulatory health care) safety and what works to improve safety. How can we use the data and experience of liability insurance companies in research and demonstrations in ambulatory patient safety?
- What kinds of confidentiality protection will be required to establish and maintain near miss reporting systems? Do we have enough now? Is it more a problem of education and demonstration?
- How can existing reporting databanks be better used to understand threats and injuries?
- PROs, Risk Management organizations, national foundations, and voluntary accreditors are already maintaining adverse event and near miss databanks. How many more do we need? What are the best models to disseminate?
- Should a national, "nested" system for near miss reporting be designed, or should it be allowed to develop from the market?
- If fragmentation of care, highly variable structure, and loose linkages are a major source of risk to patient safety in ambulatory care, should we build a national model of integrated ambulatory health care delivery that would reduce risks from these factors? What are the key elements, the first steps?
- We advance the hypothesis that the lack of universal electronic medical record is a critical gap in the fabric of ambulatory health care safety. Are we right to prioritize this as a critical ambulatory health care safety issue? Is it achievable?
- We advance the hypothesis that focusing on the chain of medication prescribing, delivery and use should be an immediate focus of ambulatory health care safety. Are we right in thinking that gains in this area are likely to cascade into others and expedite the formation of a patient safety infrastructure in ambulatory health care?
- How might technology amplify negative consequences? How might the science of technology assessment in health care be developed?
- Will the rapidly growing area of patient-provider email communication affect safety? Will it perversely decrease access to care for those with easy computer access? Will it create an even greater divide between the haves and have-nots?
- Can low volume centers successfully adopt practices of high volume centers? Or is it finally a function of size (critical mass of resources and maintaining expertise)? Will widespread adoption of high volume referral centers paradoxically worsen care in lower volume facilities that must care for the conditions in question?
- How will solo and small group practices cope with increasing trends towards use of expensive information systems, need for more documentation, decreasing reimbursement, etc...? What organizations might fill this niche?
- Hypothesis: Significantly improving health care worker safety will significantly improve patient safety. Do we have good enough baseline data on threats/injuries re: health care workers? What level of evidence is required?
- What level of evidence will be needed to widely support adoption of simulation training in health care? If cost is an issue, what is the cost of training under the current model? If that is not known, how do we get that data?
- How might available research dollars best be leveraged to have the widest and most sustained impact?
Topic Three—The External Environment
- We assert that "leadership" is a key to advance patient safety. How do we build leadership to advance patient safety in ambulatory health care?
- How do we build trust among stakeholders to advance patient safety? Are disclosure and apology necessary steps to earning consumer trust? Is it realistic to think that ambulatory health care facilities will adopt practices of disclosure and apology? Why or why not?
- We advance the hypothesis that accountability for safety in ambulatory health care is distributed among several stakeholders. Is it realistic to think that those stakeholders will accept these responsibilities? What would you recommend as vehicles for growing this understanding of accountability?
- Legislation pending in Massachusetts would establish a patient safety center with the function of coordinating all State regulatory initiatives relating to patient safety, to allocate resources, avoid overlap of reporting requirements, encourage consistency of definitions, measures and language, etc. Is this a good model? Why or why not?
- Coalition efforts in Massachusetts and the Houston area, among others, reflect the phenomenon of stakeholders coming together to create a safe space to discuss safety and forge interventions. Is this a good model? Is it likely that such a structure can effectively coordinate the different roles and responsibilities of stakeholders in advancing patient safety?
- A strong case is being made for developing a national mandatory reporting system structure and process (States>Fed). Why will it work any better than what we have legislated now, subject to severe underreporting and resource constraints?
- Could mandatory reporting enforcement constrain voluntary reporting through fear of what might be disclosed?
- The National Practitioner Data Bank has been the subject of research suggesting the NPDB has caused perverse and unintended incentives to downcode and underreport problems. Is this widely accepted? What does this mean for planned mandatory reporting schemes?
- Given the public and political climate, how will demand for new "strong" Federal confidentiality protection for reporting fare? What about the longstanding practice of public disclosure of adverse event data by State departments of public health?
- What are the obstacles to developing a business case for medication safety in ambulatory health care? What are the key elements of a business case for medication safety?
- Research suggests that patients do not now use public physician and organization profiling data to make decisions about where they choose to receive care. How will proposed public safety indicator data influence consumer behavior? What information and/or incentives will motivate consumers to migrate to safer health care environments?
- How can patient experience with adverse events and near misses be integrated into reporting systems?
- Does a focus on patient safety and the core value "First, do no harm?" have the potential for re-opening the discussion of civil justice system reform?
- Has the patient safety movement made the notions of enterprise liability or no-fault more palatable to clinicians, liability insurers and ambulatory health care organizations? Do you think a no-fault system of compensation would advance patient safety? Increase consumer trust? Would early offer and recovery mechanisms be a better approach?

In the Garden:
Upper South
September, 2003
Regional Report
Brightly colored flowers, herbs, and a tomato plant plus hummingbirds, rabbits, and guinea hens create an environment that brings delight to my mother.
Re-Creating Eden
I cannot remember a time when my mother didn't garden. Until this year. Age and illness have radically reduced her scope in 2003. No longer does she freely roam and carefully tend the three-quarters of an acre of trees, shrubs, flowers, herbs, and vegetables that was once her domain. That now falls under my keep. And, in that sense, she still has it, but I wanted to create something special for her this year that was more relevant to her altered lifestyle.
In this reduced Eden there are bright flowers, ample herbs, and bounteous tomatoes growing in numerous planters on the 10 x 18-foot deck. The surrounding flower beds have been weeded and mulched. A little pool and waterfall that can be seen from the deck has been restored to provide the relaxing sound of water -- and memories of my father who first put it there. To add to the animation, we have the resident cat and dog plus assorted hummingbird feeders, the bunny condo, and the guinea hen A-frame, all within view from the deck. With table, chairs, and umbrella, this area has brought pleasure not only to my mother but to all who spend time here.
A Healing Garden
Whether you have an aging or disabled parent or other relative, or a yen to volunteer at a nursing home or community garden, both the recipient(s) and you will benefit in more ways than you can imagine if you help to create this specialized paradise. Horticultural therapy is not a new science. I can remember attending conferences thirty years ago. But as the population ages, more and more attention is being paid to the benefits of gardening as a way to provide therapeutic benefits for both body and spirit.
Gardening styles for the elderly and disabled can be readily adapted to a small backyard, a deck or patio, an apartment balcony or courtyard, or the grounds of a hospital or retirement home. In some situations, it's important to allow the individuals to take an active role in the development and maintenance, while in others, the recipients will just be delighted to have the opportunity to sit in the area. Be mindful of those you are trying to help.
Modifications and Adaptations
Among the physical changes that take place as we age is our vision, so choose flowers with bright colors. Grow plants that offer tactile surfaces or strong (but pleasant!) scent. Changes in the muscular and skeletal system make bending, lifting, and even walking difficult. Falling is more likely. Raised beds, possibly with an edge for sitting, tabletop gardens, and containers are ideal.
Adaptive tools with improved grips, extendable handles, or better leverage are available. Use self-watering planters, water-releasing crystals, lightweight hoses, or any tools or gizmos that make chores easier. Choose an area that is easily accessible and that has a water source. Nearby bathroom facilities are another plus, in other words, don't put the garden area at the far back corner of the yard!
If possible, provide smooth paths for walkers and wheelchairs, as well as sturdy stools and chairs for sitting while working or resting. Provide a garden umbrella or a shady area for cooling, pleasurable rests.
In choosing plants, keep the overall concept simple. One well-grown tomato plant can bring as much pleasure as the once enormous vegetable garden. Don't go for the latest fad plant necessarily; instead, choose plants that are familiar and that trigger happy memories. And be sure to create your own happy memories by spending time talking, visiting, and relaxing in this special garden with the person for whom it was made.

resignation of its founder.
As part of the announcement, Tesla also confirmed that it will drop the slow-selling 40kWh version of the Model S, focussing instead on the faster and longer-range 60kWh and 85kWh versions.
Tesla's announcement caused the company's share price to jump by more than a fifth, with the result that the company is now valued at around £3.3 billion. It's also promising news for recent start-up Detroit Electric, which hopes to follow the path Tesla's trodden by commencing production of an electric Lotus-based roadster, before expanding into the manufacture of further models.
