Energy-Efficiency Programs By Consumers Energy Are Producing Long-Term Savings And Sustainable Benefits For Customers
JACKSON, Mich., July 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Customers who participate in Consumers Energy's energy efficiency programs are receiving significant long-term savings and benefits.
"The savings are real. The benefits are broad, measurable and sustainable. And hundreds of Michiganders are working because of energy efficiency programs driven by Michigan's enlightened energy reform law," said Patti Poppe, Consumers Energy's vice president of customer experience and operations.
"Consumers Energy has made a promise to the people of Michigan to provide low cost energy when they want it. As we plan for the long term, Consumers Energy knows that the lowest cost energy is the energy that we collectively don't use. By leveraging technology advances and good communication, energy efficiency is an important part of the energy mix for customers of Consumers Energy," said Poppe.
Participating customers have saved $365 million since the programs were launched in 2009, with savings extending almost 10 years beyond the initial installation date of equipment. Electric program savings could power 142,000 Michigan homes for one year, and natural gas program savings could annually heat about 60,000 homes.
"During a critical time, we're proud to say that these programs are putting people to work in Michigan," said Poppe. Consumers Energy estimates that 900 new jobs have been created, primarily through its energy efficiency trade ally network. Poppe noted that the appliance recycling program is having a positive impact on environmental sustainability and job creation. In four years, more than 67,000 refrigerators and freezers have been recycled, thereby avoiding carbon dioxide emissions equal to the operation of 134,000 cars per year. "Placed end-to-end, the number of recycled refrigerators and freezers would stretch for 70 miles, from Jackson to St. Johns," said Poppe. This program employs 54 people, including drivers and warehouse personnel in Grand Rapids and Livonia. Consumers Energy works with 2,100 energy efficiency trade allies, up from 1,700 two years ago. These trade allies provide customers with information about energy efficiency rebates and equipment. The trade allies have primary businesses in heating, ventilation and air-conditioning, windows, insulation, appliances, lighting, builders and as architects.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Wall Street reform bill threatened
The death of U.S. Senator Robert Byrd (r.) is threatening to delay passage of the sweeping Wall Street regulatory reform legislation until mid-July after it had been on track for House and Senate votes this week. Law Professor Cornelius Hurley, a former counsel to the Federal Reserve Board of Governors and now director of the Morin Center for Banking and Financial Law, says the proposed legislation has been so weakened in compromise efforts to garner enough votes to pass it in the Senate that it might be worth starting over.
"Its demise would have at least two significant benefits: first, it would allow the next Congress to develop a more robust bill, particularly with respect to systemic risk; and, second, it would enable global regulators to press the 'reset button' on international harmonization efforts, a vision apparently abandoned by this Congress and this Administration."

SCOTUS on the "honest services" law
The Supreme Court restricted a favorite tool for pursuing corrupt politicians and self-dealing corporate chiefs, ruling that the law that makes it a crime to deprive the public or one's employer of the "intangible right of honest services" can only be used where they could prove defendants accepted bribes or kickbacks. It means, for instance, that Enron ex-CEO Jeff Skilling's conviction on the "honest services" law is thrown out – but not the other charges he was convicted of. Law Professor Elizabeth Nowicki, both a former SEC attorney and Wall Street lawyer, says the opinion finally gives some insight into newly appointed Justice Sonia Sotomayor's view on business fraud.
"Surprisingly, she sided with the justices who struck down the 'honest services' doctrine for vindicating cases of overt fraud. This is a troubling blow for those who care about protecting investors and business integrity."

BP faces Congress
It's all BP all the time in Washington this week. After President Obama addresses the nation Wednesday on the BP oil spill situation, company executives on Thursday face a Congressional hearing on the matter. Visiting law Professor Elizabeth Nowicki, both a former SEC and Wall Street attorney, says BP CEO Tony Hayward would be well-served to remember what empirical research shows about the economic value of apologies.
"My advice to Hayward is to remember what behavioral research has shown: Corporations with senior management who willing and sincerely apologize are (a) less likely to get sued and (b) more likely to settle inevitable lawsuits more cheaply."
Meantime, political science Prof. Graham Wilson, author of "Business and Politics," wonders when other companies involved in the Deepwater Horizon disaster and its aftermath will be put in the spotlight that thus far has swamped BP.
"It will be interesting to see if the American companies involved, such as Transocean and Haliburton, are also asked to set aside funds [for clean-up]. Only eight of the people on the rig when the well failed were employed by BP."

Dell settling Intel claims
Dell is in settlement talks with the Securities and Exchange Commission to resolve allegations that its founder/CEO Michael Dell engaged in financial irregularities related to Dell's dealings with chip-maker Intel — with no admission of guilt or bar of Dell from service as an officer or a public company. Visiting law Professor Elizabeth Nowicki, a former SEC and Wall Street attorney, says it indicates the SEC is focused on bigger issues and might be willing to defer in the Dell matter to a similar lawsuit filed by New York's attorney general.
"The SEC can only vigorously fight so many battles at a given time."

Congress eyes credit-rating agencies
The Congressionally sponsored bipartisan Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission now has cast its eyes on the credit-rating agencies and the impact they may have had on the Great Crash of 2008. Law Professor Elizabeth Nowicki, a veteran attorney from both Wall Street and the Securities and Exchange Commission, says the agencies are both hopelessly plagued by conflicts and in a position to undermine the very stability of the capital markets.
Nowicki: "Today's hearings, then, will serve only as a political tool to emphasize the need for a dramatic response to the financial crisis."
Meantime, School of Management master lecturer Mark Williams, a former Federal Reserve Bank examiner and author of "Uncontrolled Risk" about the fall of Lehman Brothers, says that while the rating agencies weren't the main cause of the credit crisis, but they left the gate open and let the market and its participants behave in a more destructive manner.
Williams: "Meaningful financial reform will require that rating firms devise compensation plans that reward for high rating standards and provide penalties for intentional ratings manipulation."

BofA, Citi hid debt like Lehman
Bank of America and Citigroup brushed off reports that they incorrectly hid from investors billions in debt — similar to what Lehman Brothers did — to obscure its true level of risk. Company documents filed with regulators show the two Wall Street banks classified some short-term repurchase agreements ("repos") as sales, which they should have shows as borrowings. Law Professor Elizabeth Nowicki, a former SEC and Wall Street attorney, says such "repo" transactions should have been disclosed — even if they were legal.
"Isn't it material to one poker player to know that all the other poker players at the table regularly cheat in other games, even if none of the players actually cheats in the game then being played? Bank of America, Citi, and other banks using repos can count on being sued promptly by investors."

SEC moves to avoid "flash crash"
In an effort to avoid a repeat of the May 6th "flash crash" when computerized trading markets tumbled out of control, the Securities and Exchange Commission has voted unanimously to require audit trails to cover all trading orders from start to finish. Visiting Law Professor Elizabeth Nowicki, a former SEC and Wall Street attorney, says the proposal to allow the SEC constant, real-time access to that information to better monitor the markets is a great idea in support of investor protection — but it won't fix everything.
"The reality is that this sort of information aggregation system is not a panacea, and, given how fast and sophisticated today's trading markets are, it is unrealistic to expect that the SEC can ever truly be a real-time market regulator. Investors simply cannot expect that of the SEC."
Contact Elizabeth Nowicki, 518-867-5355, email@example.com
Morgan Stanley new Fed target
Wall Street investment bank Morgan Stanley reportedly is being investigated by federal authorities to see if it misled investors about mortage-derivatives deals it helped design and sometimes bet against. This is on the heels of the Securities and Exchange Commission charging Goldman Sachs with securities fraud involving similar collateralized debt obligations or CDOs. Law Professor Elizabeth Nowicki, a former SEC attorney and Wall Street lawyer, says this suggests Morgan Stanley might end up in the same position as Goldman is in.
"The federal government is now making clear that they will take the aggressive watchdog actions they have recently been chastised for not taking over the past two years. The bigger question is what other banks can expect a phone call from the SEC or the DoJ."
Contact Elizabeth Nowicki, 518-867-5355, email@example.com
Crisis panel probes bank "window dressing"
The Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission, which is looking into the causes for the 2008 economic crash, today questioned former executives from the investment bank Bear Stearns (sold to J.P. Morgan in a firesale after a run on the bank) and explored the open-secret of how Wall Street banks legally fudged their quarterly books to dress up their financial statements. Law Professor Cornelius Hurley, a former counsel to the Federal Reserve Board of Governors and now director of the Morin Center for Banking and Financial Law, says that to deal with such "window dressing" it is time to consider borrowing a principle from tax law.
"Namely, if a pattern of financial and accounting maneuvers has no 'economic substance' other than to misstate the firm's financial condition, it should be per se securities fraud."
Contact Cornelius Hurley, 617-353-5427, email@example.com
Obama pushes Wall Street on reform
President Obama returned to Manhattan to lay out his vision for Wall Street reform now inching its way through Congress. Former deputy Comptroller of the Currency Robert Bench, now a senior fellow at the BU Law School's Morin Center for Banking and Financial Law, says the proposed reforms don't go far enough at reining in Wall Street's excesses.
"Financial reform should be directed at capturing billions of profits into building capital and reserves at financial institutions. They need to become fortresses of finance rather than perpetual wards of the state."

This falls under the category of don't try this at home. Because really, no one should have a 7 foot shark at home anyways. But here is video of Elliot Sudal wrestling a shark to shore this past Sunday. According to boston.com:
It took 45 minutes for Elliot Sudal to wrestle the shark to shore. Sudal, a 24-year-old who moved to Massachusetts from Florida, said he had been a fisherman his whole life and was catching bluefish and bass before the sand shark took the bait. He and his friends snapped some photos, then pushed the shark back out into the water.Sudal said he suspected a shark presence when some of the fish he reeled in showed signs of bite marks.

The Secret (and Surprising) Power of Naps
Naps help Constance Kobylarz Wilde, 58, recharge, especially if she takes them right after lunch. Wilde, a marketing manager and health blogger in Mountain View, Calif., is constantly juggling her schedule as a working mom and family caregiver. She's up by 6 a.m. every day and tries to go to bed by 10:30 p.m. But unanticipated issues often push her bedtime later.
"I can't do all-nighters anymore or just get six hours of sleep without it beginning to affect me," she says.
10 Ways to Make Your New Year's Resolutions Stick
By Sarah Mahoney There's an inevitable rhythm to January 1 at my house. I take down the tree, vacuum up pine needles, and start making my New Year's resolutions. The list usually looks like this: Lose weight. Swear off TV and saturated fat. Eat salads. Call Dad more. Write that novel. Floss. By midday I'm worn out, intermittently dozing in front of a football game and swiping my husband's million-calorie nachos. It's not that I totally lack discipline. It's just that I don't sufficiently appreciate...
Read the 10 Ways to Make Your New Year's Resolutions Stick article > >
So to combat fatigue and stay on top of things at work and at home, Wilde has made power naps a regular part of her routine, setting an alarm for a short snooze.
Naps and Sleep Deprivation
Daytime naps can be one way to treat sleep deprivation, says Sara C. Mednick, PhD, sleep expert and author of Take a Nap! Change Your Life. "You can get incredible benefits from 15 to 20 minutes of napping," she says. "You reset the system and get a burst of alertness and increased motor performance. That's what most people really need to stave off sleepiness and get an energy boost."
The length of your nap and the type of sleep you get help determine the brain-boosting benefits. The 20-minute power nap -- sometimes called the stage 2 nap -- is good for alertness and motor learning skills like typing and playing the piano.
What happens if you nap for more than 20 minutes? Research shows longer naps help boost memory and enhance creativity. Slow-wave sleep -- napping for approximately 30 to 60 minutes -- is good for decision-making skills, such as memorizing vocabulary or recalling directions. Getting rapid eye movement or REM sleep, usually 60 to 90 minutes of napping, plays a key role in making new connections in the brain and solving creative problems.
Naps Versus Coffee
Is taking a catnap better than reaching for a cup of joe? Yes, Mednick says, because caffeine can decrease memory performance. So you may feel more wired, but you are also prone to making more mistakes.
"If I don't get my naps, I get cranky and unfocused by the end of a week of short nights," Wilde says. "For me, that nap helps bring back my energy level."

Luke Christopher - Heaven
Artist: Luke Christopher
Producer: Luke Christopher
Album: #TMRGANGTUESDAY
Avg Rating: 3.3 ( 4 votes )
For Luke Christopher, paradise isn't something that awaits in the afterlife. As Belinda Carlisle would say, "Heaven is a place on earth." On the latest entry in his #TMRGANGTUESDAY series, the Los Angeles-repping reader fave celebrates the many things that make his life dope—from the liquor in his glass, to the fly chick on his lap, to the close friends riding with him—over an eminently laid-back, self-produced beat. The improvised closing verse, during which he takes an unexpected phone call, only enhances the joint's laissez-faire appeal. Feeling it? Then stay tuned; we'll keep you supplied with more TMRGANG highlights in the weeks and months ahead.

Click Here for the Final Conference Programme |
Click Here for Available Conference Papers|
The Association for the Study of Ethnicity and Nationalism (ASEN) is holding its 20th Anniversary Conference entitled "Nation and Charisma", between the 13th and 15th of April 2010 at the London School of Economics and Political Science.
Must nations have 'founding fathers', and nationalist movements charismatic leaders? Does nationalism differ in this respect from any other mass movement? If nationalism is a species of secular religion, is it also therefore a cult of the hero or heroine? How important is leadership for the national cause, and what are its effects for good or ill? These are some of the questions which the ASEN's 20th Anniversary Conference seeks to address.
The conference will include keynote addresses from leading scholars in the field, along with opportunities for scholars from various disciplines to examine the relationship between nationalism and charisma in a series of panel sessions. Themes include:
Day 1- Tuesday 13th April 2010
The Theoretical and Historical Relationship between Nations and Charisma
Emeritus Professor David Martin: "Charisma and Founding Fatherhood"
Professor of History Lucy Riall, Birkbeck College, University of London: "Heroes of the nation: charisma and personality cults in Risorgimento Italy'
Day 2- Wednesday 14th April 2010
The Types of Charismatic Leaderships
Emeritus Professor Lord Desai: "Gandhi and Nehru: Reason and Charisma in Narratives of Nationhood"
Professor MacGregor Knox, Stevenson Professor of International History, London School of Economics and Political Science: "Mussolini and Hitler: Charisma, Regime, and Nation"
Day 3- Thursday 15th April 2010
Charismatic Nationalism and Movements
Professor Elleke Boehmer, Professor of World Literature in English, Oxford University: "Madiba Magic: Mandela's Outlier Charisma"
Professor Erik-Jan Zurcher, Professor of History, The International Institute for Social History, Amsterdam, Netherlands: "The Ataturk Cult in Turkey" The conference will adopt an interdisciplinary approach focusing on historical, theoretical, and contemporary aspects of the theme.

The photos/checked boxed categories/age are what people assess when deciding to communicate on here - not the written essays. People might not want to admit that but it's the truth. As a starting point, I love sports, tennis/working out/swimming, volunteering, conversing about everything under the sun, and sweet mixed drinks. I'd rather get to know you over a cup of joe or glass of bubbly. An initial chat over text or email to break the ice is fine. Anything beyond that stretches into several days or weeks of just e-chat - I get bored. I am not looking at this with an instant relationship mindset. Looking for that elusive middle ground. You're not trying to get into my pants right away nor are you judging each profile you see on here for your future wife so you can propose on the first date -:) In short you're just a guy with social skills looking to meet new people. Honestly, I have ZERO expectations other than potentially meeting someone new to talk to. If I make first contact and you would prefer chatting in person - say hello back!

Area HomelessSubmitted by Area Eyes (not verified) on Sun, 02/10/2008 - 12:27pm.
There are more homeless persons than the street people we see walking downtown.
Private charities seem to do a better job of helping the career homeless, as well as the temporary homeless.
The Salvation Army has always been there for
those in dire need. This organization is a sincere, hands on group that understands the problem, and knows how to effectively deliver the necessary help.
I can understand why a huge donation went to the Salvation Army from the WalMart fortune.

Cainozoic paleontological sites of Western Kenya
by Martin Pickford
5 editions published in 1986 in English and German and held by 44 WorldCat member libraries worldwide The West Kenya fossil deposits have yielded well over 100,000 fossils from more than 300 discrete fossil sites over a period in excess of seventy years of scientific research. These fossils and the sites from which they came have been the subject of over 500 scientific articles. In short, the data base has reached a point where it could be in danger of becoming too large to handle, especially if details concerning provenience of fossils, details of the location of sites and other factors are forgotten or misreported. Indeed, there has been a long history of uncertainty with regard to some of the fossils and the sites from which they came. This volume is the result of 10 years research aimed specifically at recording all the known fossil sites in West Kenya and to determining the provenience of the fossils housed in various institutions in the world. There remains some doubt about the detailed provenience of some of the fossils, but many of the old collections could, with reasonable confidence, be placed back into their proper localities. A wide range of problems was encountered during the research, and these have been enumerated in the text in order that future researchers may avoid making the same mistakes, or of propagating errors already in the literature. Since the locality from which a fossil was collected is the departure point for all palaeontological studies, it is hoped that this volume will find wide readership among those scientists interested in the Miocene and Plio-Pleistocene fossil record of Western Kenya
Search for the first human
1 edition published in 2007 in English and held by 42 WorldCat member libraries worldwide Examines the implications of Orrorin tugenensis, a group of six million year-old fossils found in the Tugen Hills of Kenya, which may shed light on the origins of humankind. Suggests that if the bones do belong to upright-walking, hominid creatures, then our current theories about the evolution of human beings may have to be rewritten. Also looks at new ideas about the development of upright walking in humans, which propose that bipedalism developed in the trees, not the open savannah
Revision of the Miocene Suidae of the Indian subcontinent
by Martin Pickford
3 editions published in 1988 in English and held by 35 WorldCat member libraries worldwide A revision of the Miocene Suidae of the Indian Subcontinent based on more than 1000 fossil specimens reveals that there are 15 species which can be grouped into 11 genera and 5 subfamilies. These figures contrast strongly with the results of previous research especially those of G. E. PILGRIM (1926) who recognised 48 species in 14 genera based on 155 specimens. The diversity of indian suids compares well with that of european faunas, with the main exceptions of the Tetraconodontinae and Hippohyini which are better represented and more diverse in the Sub-himalaya. The concept that India was the centre of origin and diversification of the family Suidae is considered to be refuted based as it was on early work in which synonymy is the rule rather than the exception. There are strong similarities between Miocene suid faunas of Europe and the Sub-himalaya, especially among Hyotheriinae, medium-sized Tetraconodontinae, Listriodontinae and bunodont Suinae. Hypsodont Suinae and tiny as well as gigantic Tetraconodontinae are the main groups which are represented in Indian deposits but have not so far been recorded from Europe. Kubanochoeres are recorded for the first time from the Indian sub-continent. Comparison of the Indian suid fauna with that of Africa shows that the two were rather distinct throughout the Miocene, with the exception of Listriodon in the middle Miocene and Nyanzachoerus/Sivachoerus in the upper Miocene. The Sub-himalayan suid faunas show marked changes through time with the result that they are useful in" coarse focus"biostratigraphy. Changes within species and lineages are not too readily apparent and the" fine focus"biostratigraphy which is possible using East African Plio-Pleistocene suid lineages cannot yet be attempted with the Indian forms. It should be noted howeverthat Hippopotamodon and Hippohyus do show morphometric changes with time so that future work with amplified collections may permit a comparable suid biostratigraphic framework to be erected for India. Sanitherium has been removed from the Suidae and placed into its own family, the Sanitheriidae (PICKFORD 1984), so that postulated relationships to Sivahyus and Hippohyus which are true suids need no longer concern us. Both the latter genera are here considered to have evolved from a Propotamochoerus-like stock during the late Miocene. The scarcity of lower Miocene material from the Sub-continent does not permit much speculation concerning the origins of the subfamilies Listriodontinae, Tetraconodontinae, Hyotheriinae and Suinae and for this we must still rely on the much longer and more complete history based on European collections. In recent collections from upper Miocene deposits it has been shown that more than 75 % of Propotamochoerus and Hippopotamodon specimens came from the same fossil concentrations as hominoid primates (Sivapithecus), an extraordinary degree of co-occurrence well worth more attention from palaeoecologists. Only one new species, Hyotherium pilgrimi, is erected, a form about 20 % larger than H. soemmeringi of Europe. A large number of species and genera disappear into synonymy, including the names Dicoryphochoerus, Adaetontherium and Hyosus

Published: Friday February 7, 2014 MYT 6:02:14 AM Updated: Friday February 7, 2014 MYT 6:24:01 AM
KIEV (Reuters) - Ukraine's central bank said on Thursday it had introduced restrictions on certain types of foreign exchange purchase to help defend the stability of the banking system at a time of volatility in the currency market.
In measures it said followed efforts to stabilise the hryvnia in recent weeks - during which political conflict in Ukraine has alarmed investors - the National Bank of Ukraine also said it would be offering extraordinary tenders to support banking liquidity, with funds available up to 360 days.
The bank, which has used reserves intervening in the market but has failed to prevent a 10-percent slide in the hryvnia since November, did not publish full details of the measures in two news releases issued long after banks closed for the day.
It said restrictions on foreign exchange purchases would not limit payments for education and healthcare abroad, transfers for people moving their country of residence or the payment of salaries of non-residents in Ukraine.
However, international bankers said such restrictions would disrupt trade and could create a parallel market in the Ukrainian currency, which the central bank has been struggling to hold steady on a dollar peg. The hryvnia fell below 9 per dollar on Wednesday for the first time in five years, though it steadied on Thursday to be fixed at 8.9838 per dollar.
"Taking account of the volatility in the hryvnia exchange rate and tensions in the currency market, the National Bank of Ukraine has taken a range of measures in recent weeks to support its equilibrium," the central bank said.
"Notably, the National Bank of Ukraine has increased its presence in the interbank market and has used the mechanisms and instruments it possesses for currency stabilisation.
"These measures have had a clearly positive effect. However, they had a limited effect due to the unfavourable effect of a variety of internal and external factors, including the sharp devaluation of the national currencies of the group of emerging market countries," the bank said in its statement.
The restriction on currency purchases would, it said, "facilitate the stability of the national banking system".
Timothy Ash of Standard Bank said that if the central bank was trying to "balance" the market, then "it's not really a market".
"This is just a sign of desperation and will further the scarcity of FX, disrupt trade and economic activity, and make an already difficult situation that much worse. The danger is that this just creates a parallel market," he said.
"Further, the move will hardly win friends and influence people at the IMF, who have long been calling for a more flexible exchange rate regime," Ash added.
In a separate statement, the bank said it had, within the bounds of standard monetary procedures, created a mechanism for supporting bank liquidity that would maintain public confidence in the banking system in the event of a deterioration in market expectations and facilitate its stable operation.
The director of the bank's monetary policy department, Olena Shcherbakova, said: "I want to stress that today we are not seeing a critical outflow of funds from banks. This mechanism is intended principally as a preventive measure.
"We want banks, and the people of Ukraine, to be confident that, whatever happens, the banks are capable of fulfilling their obligations to citizens in a timely and complete manner."
Such confidence would underpin stability in banking activities even if market turbulence increased, she said.
Collateral for refinancing could include Ukrainian state debt or foreign currencies, including dollars, euros, British pounds, yen and Swiss francs.

Mask estimation for missing data speech recognition based on statistics of binaural interaction AbstractThis paper describes a perceptually motivated computational auditory scene analysis (CASA) system that combines sound separation according to spatial location with the `missing data' approach for robust speech recognition in noise. Missing data time-frequency masks are created using probability distributions based on estimates of interaural time and level differences (ITD and ILD) for mixed utterances in reverberated conditions; these masks indicate which regions of the spectrum constitute reliable evidence of the target speech signal. A number of experiments compare the relative ef cacy of the binaural cues when used individually and in combination. We also investigate the ability of the system to generalise to acoustic conditions not encountered during training. Performance on a continuous digit recognition task using this method is found to be good, even in a particularly challenging environment with three concurrent male talkers.

The poetry of Robert Burns
by Robert Burns
38 editions published between 1890 and 1970 in English and held by 616 WorldCat member libraries worldwide Many nations have produced outstanding poets who they would gladly have represent their Culture. But can any Nation say they have an equivalent of Robbie Burns? Rabbie. The Ploughman Poet. The Bard (Of Scotland). This one poet is indelibly linked and intertwined with the culture and people of Scotland. His life, loves, politics, verse and songs speak as them and for them. From humble roots, the eldest son of seven born in 1759 to parents, both from tenant farming stock, the family endured both hardship and poverty. Burns endured the test and began to write first at 15 and to publish his first volume some two years later. He wrote in both true Scottish, dialect and English as well as turning his hand to song. Politically he was an inspiration to both liberalism and socialism as well as a Scottish parliament. His unique ability enabled him to appeal to all and quite rightly to be viewed as the National poet. As well as creating his own great works he was also an avid collector of Scottish Folk Songs preserving for posterity the works of others. However his own life was short dying at the young age of only 37. What further greatness would have lain before him is impossible to say. But, poetically, on the day of his death his son, Maxwell was born. His fame today is worldwide and celebrated in January each year with the Traditional Burns night. Each New Years Eve friends and families the world over link arms to 'Auld Lang Syne', giving immortality to his words and aims. As former Secretary General of the United Nations, Kofi Annan says: Burn's poems dignify and illuminate the struggle faced by the vast majority of the world's population today. In this slim volume the very best of his work is brought to you

This volume contains the celebrated third chapter, which inherently contributed to the development of social history by presenting a highly contextually relevant extensive survey of English society in the year 1685, in terms of such things as population, cities, classes, and tastes." "Macaulay's approach to his subject, as John Burrow explains in his masterly introduction, was that of a definite advocate of "progress."

Baird Old World KolschBrewed by Baird Brewing Co. Numazu, Shizuoka, Japan In the annals of German beer history, Kolsch actually is a relatively "new world" style at a mere two centuries old. It is a pale, dry, assertively hopped golden ale know as the "beer of Cologne." A fruity-winy bouquet is one of its hallmarks. Baird Old World Kolsch is brewed with German Pilsner and Wheat malts and hopped with American Perle and Vanguard varieties. The appearance is highlighted by a gorgeously full head of long-lasting white foam and a slightly hazy white-gold color. The aroma is zesty and lemon-like. The flavor is dry and quenching with a hint of bitter hop fruit.

Cosmetic mold generally does not need to be tested nor removed. How can we recognize harmless mold indoors? This article discusses how to recognize mold that may be harmless, or cosmetic only in importance in buildings. We look for mold in buildings not only where mold is visible but also by context: where do we see leak stains, or where do we see building practices most likely to have produced a hidden leak or moisture problem? Ice dam leaks in walls, hidden plumbing leaks, roof spillage by the foundation, are all common clues that often track to a wet building wall or ceiling cavity and from there to a hidden mold problem which may need to be addressed. Green links show where you are. © Copyright 2015 InspectApedia.com, All Rights Reserved. How to Recognize Harmless Cosmetic Molds and Other Low-Risk MoldsCosmetic-only Ceratocystis/Ophistoma bluestain mold is shown on the floor joists in the new construction framing in the photo just above. This is a harmless, cosmetic-only mold that does not damage the lumber and is not a pathogen for humans. Here's a good example of the observation that not all "black mold" is "toxic black mold". It will be totally hidden when the ceiling drywall is installed. The mold shown in the photograph above is plain to see during construction, but will be covered and hidden completely when the contractor installs the ceiling drywall. One of our clients discovered this scary-looking black mold during a renovation and was quite concerned that a major toxic black mold reservoir had been found in the building. He client was facing a very costly mold cleanup project if this mold had to be addressed as a toxic material. Luckily this was not the case in this instance, as was easily demonstrated both by a simple inexpensive lab test and confirmed by onsite inspection of other framing details discussed at "Cosmetic Molds" linked-below. So sometimes the mold in your house might be only a cosmetic concern. "Bluestain" or Ceratocystis/Ophistoma is common on framing lumber and we often find it in attics on the under side of roof sheathing. Unless it's in finished portions of living space where it creates a cosmetic problem, no particular action needed to address this black mold. Detailed advice about spotting harmless black mold including how to determine by visual inspection
alone whether or not you're probably looking at one of these common framing lumber cosmetic molds
is Warning notice about Cleaning Up Mold YourselfGuidelines defining what's a "large amount" of mold and what's reasonable for a
homeowner to handle have been published by several states including New
York and California. Links to some key documents describing mold cleanup and mold remediation procedures
are People who are allergic, asthmatic, infant, elderly, immune-impaired, etc., should not disturb mold and should not be in the area where mold remediation is being performed. Consult with your doctor, health department or other professional before tackling this job yourself. On occasion some visible mold can be determined to be harmless and "cosmetic" old mold that was present when the building was constructed. While it is always possible that additional more harmful molds are present in addition to the cosmetic mold, if there is no leak history nor any other evidence of mold growth in a building and if there are no health or building-related occupant complaints, the identification of the cosmetic mold described here might be accomplished by visual inspection alone, saving on more costly professional mold tests.

'Anti-Sharia' Law Moves in Michigan House Huffington Post Supporters of an "anti-sharia†bill that's been sitting in Michigan's State House Judiciary Committee for over a year are pushing state lawmakers to put the measure to a vote. If adopted, the bill he introduced would "limit the application and enforcement by a court, arbitrator, or administrative body of foreign laws that would impair constitutional rights.†House Bill 4769 was introduced by State Rep. Dave Agema (R-Grandville) in June of 2011. Agema, who was chosen to be Michigan's Republican National Committeeman earlier this year, has a history of making controversial statements about Islam. He has gone on record claiming President Obama is a Muslim and has also linked the faith to violent behavior. "I disagree that Islam is a religion of peace,†he told Michigan Radio. "Just about every terrorist is a Muslim.†"I think that's really undemocratic to bottle it up like that. One should put it on the floor. Let the legislators have a stand up Yes or No vote. And if it fails, it fails,†Irving Ginsburg, a supporter of the bill, told Michigan Radio. The bill has been opposed by the American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan and the Council on American-Islamic of Michigan (CAIR-MI). "HB 4769 does nothing to protect our legal institutions but only contributes to the growing climate of fear-mongering against the American Muslim community which marginalizes and cast suspicion upon loyal Americans,†Dawud Walid, Executive Director of CAIR-MI said on his blog. Sharia is a term meaning Islamic religious law. It's a moral and legal code that governs things like marriage, business, eating habits and other aspects of life for a devout Muslim. In the last several years, "anti-sharia†laws have been passed in Arizona, Kansas, Louisana, South Dakota, Tennessee and Oklahoma. Oklahoma voters passed a state proposal a law similar to Michigan's House Bill 4769 in 2010. However, that measure was struck down by a federal appeals court because it made a specific reference to sharia law — and would have violated the U.S. Constitution by targeting a particular religion. Last year Tennessee passed an anti-terrorism law that made the "material support†of Islamic law a crime that could be punished by 15 years in prison. An amended version of the law later removed references to Islam. In May of this year Kansas governor Sam Brownback signed a law that prevents state courts and agencies from applying foreign laws in their decision-making. That law makes no specific mention of sharia or Islamic law, USA Today reports. 14-49 November 29, 2012 by TMO 0 comments 5 viewson *The Muslim Observer, 14-49, Community News, Legal, Regional, SE Michigan, Volume 14 Share this post Facebook Twitter Google plus Pinterest Linkedin Mail this article Print this article Next: Rebels: Sheikh Suleiman Army Base Soon to Fall Previous: Hijab First in British Parliament

I had dinner at the Fiskekrogen. Food was good and the plates were nice and full size The service was very friendly but not "too friendly" price like all Norway restaurants are on the high side.
The restaurant proposed us a catch of the day, baked cod in butter sauce. Unfortunately we failed to ask "which day". When we ventilated our disappointment at the freshness of the fish, the waitress specified that the catch was in fact six months old and had been kept in vacuum storage since. She added that this was the overall habit... More

Great location and fantastic food, well worth the detour. In any event, situated in Henningsvaer, a nice fishing village which you should visit anyway
We stayed in Henningsvaer on our last night on a road-trip in the Lofotens. We arrived at this restaurant on a very busy night so service was a bit slow - although they were very nice and friendly and helpful. We has some amazing sashimi to start (including smoked whale, which dare I admit it was divine!). For main course... More
Really good quality meal.nice restaurant, lovely looking over the harbour. Friendly staff. Very good fish, not cheap but average price for the lofoten Islands. Splashed out. 2 courses & a bottle of wine was about £100!
