It was a quiet voice, but a voice of reason. In the passing of Dr Subhakant Behera, the Indian community in Melbourne has lost one of its best 'brand ambassadors'
Siddharth Suresh
On a Friday night, after work, a year-and-a-half ago, I met Dr Subhakant Behera for the first time. It was probably one of his first public engagements in Melbourne. The occasion was the launch of the Indian Executive magazine. Dr Behera arrived on time, stood in a corner, saying very little. My colleagues and I did not know how to handle the newly posted Consular General to Melbourne then. We didn't know what to expect from him.
After the flamboyant Ms Anita Nair, Dr Behera looked timid, an introvert. Many in the restaurant wondered if he could pull off this hard job of breaking the ice between India and Australia. The two democracies had a strained relationship following attacks on Indian students in Melbourne. The restaurant was buzzing with local businessmen talking work, networking and gossiping.
My colleague Sreekant Balan managed to start a conversation with Dr Behera and asked him if everything was ok and if he wanted a drink. He said no to the drink and replied: "Yes, everything is ok. But I'm surprised you did not invite my wife to this event." We were taken aback. Probably, it was our ignorance. Didn't we know the protocol? It was time to cut the ribbon and launch the magazine. When the time came for Dr Behera to speak, he said a few words. A few words on how significant it is for Australia to engage with India in the current economic environment. He sounded thorough, informed and a total intellectual. Some doubts were laid to rest that night, but others prevailed.
Since that day, since we goofed up with the invite, we decided to leave him alone, not engage with this mystery. Not knowing if he'd be upset again. But Dr Behera always surprised. He would call, quite unexpectedly, to find out about our plans, our community engagements. In a very short span of time, he was visible at almost all events and engagements organised by the Indian diaspora in Melbourne. No active community member could miss his presence. He cultivated a support base and respect among the community fairly quickly. It was like he only made friends and very few enemies.
We also saw Mrs Rajashree Behera's presence at all cultural events without fail. It wasn't just her presence, but she very actively promoted Odissi and Indian art and culture in Melbourne. It's only then that we realised the reason for his question when we first met — "Why didn't you invite my wife." We realised it was the most professional question he could ask. Dr Behera and Mrs Behera had cut out a plan for Melbourne on the cultural front. He wanted her that night to meet the community and get started with her work.
It was a well thought out strategy by Dr Behera to use the Indian diaspora to engage with Australia. He truly believed that Indians living in Melbourne were the "brand ambassadors" of India. Dr Behera very smartly and effectively used the Indian community to break the ice between India and Australia. He used us to bring positivity back in a relationship that had gone haywire. While Mrs Behera worked on the cultural front, he engaged with the political circles in an intellectual way, with community organisations as a smooth operator, business leaders in a dynamic way, the ethnic and mainstream media in an effortless and sincere manner.
Dr Behera sometimes would call us into his office and initiate a discussion on the ethnic media in Melbourne. With over 15 Indian newspapers in Melbourne, he often wondered how they survived commercially. He would sarcastically question their viability. By then I had realised he was a fair person to deal with. I wasn't getting offended. I realised his sarcasm was only to get me to defend my job, to hear something positive about an industry that most people liked to be dismissive about. "Acha Siddharth, tell me, why are there so many newspapers in the market. What do you guys publish that keeps you in business." My answers, I'm sure, satisfied his doubts about the ethnic media's role in Melbourne. Only because he engaged with us, almost till the end.
One of the last events he attended, ironically, was again related to the Indian Executive — the second annual Indian Executive awards held at Docklands. In the lead up to this event, we got to know Dr Behera more closely. He kept calling us every second day to find out if the preparations were going well. He wanted to see the run-sheet, he wanted to know the guest list. I was invited to his office a couple of times so he could understand the credibility of the awards and its selection process. He posed questions, challenged some methods we adopted. All along, he was actively engaging with us, to help us get better at our business, to fine-tune our system.
I told him how some in the community were against the whole initiative. All he said was: "Why do you worry? Just do the right thing and you will be fine. Some attention is always good for growth."
On the night of the awards, we made a few mistakes while calling him on stage. Our MC forgot to invite him to speak and had to bring him back again for his speech. The stand-up comedian Aamer Hussain from The Fear of the Brown Planet reminded the audience of old wounds between Australia and India. Aamer poked fun at racism in Australia. Dr Behera was at ease through the night, often touching base with me to find out if we were all ok and happy with the event.
After that night, we met again for the Diwali Souvenir launch at his office. I had asked him if his office would remain shut while he went on holidays. I was surprised. It cracked him up. He laughed and said: "No Siddharth, this office does not revolve around me." On my way out, he called me again and said "Acha Siddharth, even if I go away for a long time, this office will remain closed only on December 25th."
On 9 November, I got a call from Neeraj Nanda of South Asia Times to give me the sad news of Dr Behera's death. His death has profoundly affected us. The community has lost a true mentor, India has lost a promising diplomat, Australia has lost a true friend, Indus Age lost a true supporter, the ethnic media in Melbourne lost a vocal critic.
R.I.P Dr Behera.

The Bears varsity lacrosse team hosted rival Alpharetta last Tuesday night, March 20 in a key area battle.
Coming off its best performance off the season the prior week, the Bears had to shake off early rust before delivering a strong overall outing and a dominant win against the Raiders. After falling behind early 2-0, Sr. Jake Meyerholt put the Bears on the board midway through the first quarter. The dynamic attackman, Meyerholt, added his second goal early in the 2nd quarter to keep the Bears within striking distance down 3-2 and then tied the game with his first half hat trick. Credit the defense for making each possession miserable for the Raiders. Though possession time was largely even for the game, the Bears ability to snare ground balls over the course of the game was impressive.
Co-Captain, Nick Ganem, led the defensive players with five ground balls followed by Jack Lech with four. Defensive clears remained a strong suit for the team as the Bears converted over 86% of clears for the night. Among the highlights for the game, the team had scores from many sources. Sophomore Middie, Justus Garvin, delivered his first goal of the season on a nice dodge and shoot score assisted by fellow sophomore, Reese Pieroni. The Bears exploited the Raiders throughout the evening during man up situations. For the game, Cambridge had five man up opportunities and converted goals on four of those five. Two goals by Sr. Austin Darnell helped pad the lead at halftime to 7-4.
The offensive momentum continued past halftime as the Bears extended their 3rd quarter lead to 9-5 on Sophomore, Zach Shiffman's second goal of the game. Reese Pieroni added a man up goal later in the quarter to go with his two assists for the game while padding the Bears lead to 11-5. Any attempt to draw closer by the Raiders was often thwarted by the defense, led by goalie Cole Winsness, or met with continued fire power by the offense.
For the game, the team caused 11 turnovers by its opponents which led to more scoring opportunities. During the fourth quarter, after Shiffman's third goal, Junior Attackman Ryan Richardson lit up the net with a key goal pushing the lead to eight points. In a key left hand stroke, reserve sophomore Attacker, Alex Prince delivered a solid shot leading to a one of the final blows on the night.
The final score of 15-9 brings the Bear's area record to 3-1 for the season and sets up a key match against Allatoona in their next game, Friday, March 23rd.
Go Bears!

R-Mean – Rain Mp3 Download
R-Mean comes through for week 41 with "Rain"
Monday's are typically trash. It's the beginning of the week and you know you have another five days ahead of you until it's the weekend. However, throughout this year, R-Mean has changed the perception of Mondays and turned them into something you could look forward to with his "Mean Mondays" series. He's helped everyone get over their Monday blues by dropping a new song every week. While some weeks it's been a freestyle and others certified bangers, it's always a surprise. However, R-Mean's had a consistent stream of music to deliver us through the year. Today, he gets much more personal on his latest track "Rain."
R-Mean takes this weeks "Mean Monday" entry as a dedication to the loved ones he's lost. R-Mean gets into deep detail about the loved ones he's lost and how he's lost them. He uses the third verse specifically as a dedication to his aunt that he lost at a very young age. He goes into detail about her time in the hospital and the thoughts that ran through his mind while he witnessed it. R-Mean's pen game will have you visualizing every moment that he speaks on as if you were in the hospital room with his aunt as well. The track was produced by Dat Blaze and Blind. The two of them flip a sample from an oldie from Jose Feliciano and create the landscape for R-Mean to let all his feelings out on.
It's already October and R-Mean hasn't missed a week since launching his "Mean Monday" series. Unfortunately, as we gear up to say good bye to 2017, R-Mean only has eleven weeks left in his weekly run of singles. Nonetheless, he's been killing it through this year and hopefully, this is a lead up to an even bigger 2018 for R-Mean.
Quotable Lyrics
I was just a kid, a 12 year old boy
Starin' at the casket, wanted to touch your hand
But I was too scared
All of a sudden, my mom just went ballistic
Swingin' her fist and kickin, screamin
She's missin' her little sister, she flippin,
Man she lost it

Top 5 Worst TV Shows of 2003
Opinions by Shawn McKenzie 03/10/2004
I don't see every single show on every single channel, but I do watch more TV than most, so I think I'm fairly credible on what is bad. I only choose TV shows that are currently on the air (or are confirmed to be coming back) as of the posting of this list. You may disagree with my choices, and that's fine, but know what I like. See what you think.
5. "Eve"-This show is fairly standard and cliché. There is nothing unique about the show at all. What was intended as a study about how the opposite sexes approach dating became a by-the-books sitcom. It also doesn't help that Eve's acting skills aren't quite there yet.
3. "Still Standing"-Once again, this show has remained the one sore spot on a great CBS Monday lineup. Mark Addy's British accent isn't as noticeable anymore, but he and Jamie Gertz still have no chemistry. I wish that they would put "The King of Queens" back on Monday and ship this horrible show to Wednesdays.
What do you think of my choices? What would you choose as the worst TV shows of 2003? Please email me at email@example.com or go to the Home Page and post your opinion on the Entertain Your Brain Message Board!

Zojirushi Fuzzy Logic Rice Cookers
NS-ZCC10 · Zutto (NS-DAC10)
Check out the Full Range
Zojirushi produces these two advanced Micom rice cookers. They make use of Fuzzy Logic technology. Zojirushi has patented their specific incarnation as Neuro Fuzzy®. So Neuro Fuzzy is simply the same as other brands' Advanced Micom Fuzzy Logic rice cookers. Zojirushi are not the only company to make use of this technology. For example, if you buy a Sanyo ECJ-PX50S you get an advanced micom rice cooker with fuzzy logic technology.
On the Zojirushi website it states:
Fuzzy set theory, or fuzzy logic, originally introduced by Lotfi Zadeh in the 1960s, mimics human reasoning. Zojirushi coined the trademark Neuro Fuzzy® to designate their advanced micro computerized rice cookers. Micom means Micro Computerized. The temperature and cooking time are controlled by a micro computer chip. Neuro Fuzzy® is a registered trademark of Zojirushi.
This simply means that Fuzzy Logic technology is an improvement on standard Micom rice cookers. Both the Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 and the Zutto pictured above have Neuro Fuzzy® technology. The sequence goes: Micom > Fuzzy Logic > Induction Heating > Induction Heating with Pressure. All top quality rice cookers have the Micom computer chip and then even higher grade models feature one of the other components. So for example, the Zojirushi Zutto has Micom and Fuzzy Logic. If you choose to buy a Zojirushi NP-HBC1o you get a Micom rice cooker with Induction Heating.
Both of the models featured above, the Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 and the Zutto are 5 1/2 cup rice cookers. So they are able to prepare rice for up to ten people. This makes them great sized appliances for family cooking. The NS-ZCC10 has a wider range of settings for cooking rice. However the Zutto, whose model number is NS-DAC10, is actually a bit more expensive. The Zutto was designed by a Japanese interior designer and is part of a range of products that are all very similar in design including a coffee maker, toaster and hot water dispenser. The emphasis is on styling. However as far as I am concerned, I do not actually like the look of this machine too much. I much prefer my rice cooker to look like a rice cooker than a space age device. That said, for some people, the Zutto will surely be the best rice cooker.
Both these machines have a spherical cooking bowl which helps to heat the rice evenly. They also feature detachable inner lids. This is a great thing because it makes cleaning your rice cooker after use so much easier.
If you would like to purchase either a Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 or NS-DAC10 you can find the lowest prices online at Amazon. They are a safe place to order from and typically provide a speedy delivery.

If you are a veteran in need of important legal services, particularly those related to child support, then Metroplex Veterans Legal Services, a legal nonprofit based out of Dallas, is here to help.
This Friday, June 22, MVLS will be offering a legal clinic, free of charge. The clinic, in partnership with the Attorney General of Texas' Child Support Division HEROES program, will seek to provide active duty service members, veterans, and their dependents with the tools necessary to fully, and effectively, address any concerns or issues that they may have with child support related matters.
According to a Former Secretary of Veterans Affairs, Eric K. Shinseki, in an MVLS news release, "legal issues account for four of the ten unmet needs of homeless veterans." Aware of this salient fact, MVLS is offering this clinic as a part of a wider program to combat problems that a lack of access to adequate legal assistance can cause for low income and at-risk veterans.
Four of the most common causes of legal trouble among veterans are: Driver's license issues caused by tickets; child support modification; expunction of criminal arrests; and combat related special compensation. MVLS, through their clinics, are able to assist veterans in three of these areas by: helping with child support modification, restoring driver's licenses, and providing legal assistance for warrants and fines.
If you are interested in receiving the help with child support modification that MVLS is offering at this Friday's clinic, register online at gulfcoast.veteranslegalservices.us. You must take your DD Form 214 or V.A. ID Card and your child support order with you to the clinic in order to receive assistance.
The clinic will be held on June 22, 2018, at 1:00 pm, at Goodwill Industries of South Texas, Inc. The address is 3502 S. I-69C, Edinburg, TX 78539. The Veterans and active duty servicemembers must register online in advance of the clinic at gulfcoast.veteranslegalservices.us.

I had way too many roos and decided the boys needed their own space, so plans for a bachelor pad started.
I didn't want an ordinary looking coop since I was starting to get so many buildings on the property, so I went with a
child's teahouse playhouse design. It's a 4x8 with a 30" entrance.
I framed the floor and added a waterproof FRP board with a vinyl tile entrance from leftover scraps. (Excuse the photos, the coop really is level
I just can't take a straight photo.)
This shows the front and back walls framed. The sides and entrance were completed the next day.
I found some shed windows on sale for the front walls and decided to make the side windows and the dutch door myself. My family volunteered to help over the Memorial Day weekend, so the roof was completed after two days, just before a storm came in. I dont' think I will ever do a dormer roof again or an entrance way. The entrance way made it very difficult to bring in decent sized plywood boards to cover the insulation. This is as far as we got that Monday before another storm came in.
I am still working on the soffit and decorative trim.
Had a bit of a crisis during the spring 2011 storms. A tree came down on the boy's coop when a tornado went through our town. Thankfully, the boys were uninjured, the coop took the hit. Luckily, they were sleeping on the right side of the coop so the debris didn't land on them. The rafters were lifted off the back side when the ridge board was taken out and the wall sills and floor frame on the back were split in two. The tree was removed and the coop is patched back up now but the boys were still a bit afraid for awhile when I finally put them back in there, I think I would have been too.
Thanks for looking.

China's Food Safety Publicity Week has brought to light some of the public's concerns — and revealed an interesting new trend.
Many city dwellers have started renting farmland in the countryside to grow their own food. CCTV's Wu Guoxiu reports from Shunyi, an administrative district of Beijing located outside of the city proper.
China: City dwellers rent farmland to grow foodDuring China's Food Safety Publicity Week, we've been taking a look at the public's concerns. One trend is that city dwellers are renting farmland to grow their own food. Wu Guoxiu takes us one family's farm outside Beijing.
Wen Zhai, a technology company owner, has a second job on the weekends. He works the land on a farm in Shunyi. And most often, he brings friends.
"I grow some vegetables we often eat, tomatoes, cucumbers, spinach, cabbages and also fruits like apples, peaches, and watermelons. I trust what we grow ourselves. We don't use any pesticides or chemical fertilizer. We only spread manure in the field to fertilize it." Wen says.
The large farm is not just for growing food. Wen also grows trees.
He pays 50,000 yuan (about $8,000) a year to rent the land, which measures more than 3 hectares (30,000 sq. meters) The farmer renting the land to Wen says that the steady income is helpful, and he sees a market for such rentals.
[flagallery gid=11]
The idea of working on a farm with family is becoming more and more acceptable to city dwellers in China. For them, beyond the food and work, there is also fun and leisure to the work.
"I'm planning to rent a farm too. Actually many of my colleagues and friends have already begun renting. We can visit each other's farms, and exchange fruits. We're really happy about this." said Guo Jinlu, a book editor.
With one month to go, these city farmers are looking forward to a good harvest.

Die Entstehung der Zahl 42 klärte der Autor Douglas Adams in einem Usenet-Beitrag 1993 auf.
Auf die Frage, warum die Antwort "42" sei, schrieb er:[6]
"The answer to this is very simple. It was a joke. It had to be a number, an ordinary, smallish number, and I chose that one. Binary representations, base thirteen, Tibetan monks are all complete nonsense. I sat at my desk, stared into the garden and thought '42 will do'. I typed it out. End of story."


text: NEWS New Decision: Deficiencies/Forum Shopping (Dyck-O'Neal v. Lanham) August 06, 2018 Resolving a conflict among the districts concerning which forum has jurisdiction for a mortgage foreclosure deficiency judgment was at issue in Dyck-O'Neal, Inc. v. Lanham, 17 Fla. L. Weekly S278, Case No. SC17-975 (Fla. July 5, 2018). A mortgage foreclosure judgment expressly reserved jurisdiction concerning a deficiency. A deficiency was not sought in the same forum. Instead, Dyck-O'Neal, the assignee of the mortgage and note, filed a separate legal action against the borrower seeking a deficiency judgment. The trial court granted judgment for the borrower but based solely on the validity of an assignment of the mortgage and note. The First District Court of Appeal quashed the trial court's judgment concluding that the foreclosure court, not the court where the money claim was newly filed, had jurisdiction pursuant to §702.06, Fla. Stat. (2014). The issue framed by the Supreme Court was: … Whether a complainant may pursue a separate action at law to recover a deficiency judgment when the foreclosure court reserved jurisdiction in its final judgment to adjudicate the deficiency claim. The Court began its analysis with a review of the statute: In all suits for the foreclosure of mortgages heretofore or hereafter executed the entry of a deficiency decree for any portion of a deficiency, should one exist, shall be within the sound discretion of the court . . . . The complainant shall also have the right to sue at common law to recover such deficiency, unless the court in the foreclosure action has granted or denied a claim for a deficiency judgment. §702.06, Fla. Stat. (2014) (Emphasis added by Court). The Supreme Court held that the language "plainly allows," indicating that the language was clear and unambiguous, that: the right to sue at common law to recover such deficiency, unless the court in the foreclosure action has granted or denied a claim for a deficiency judgment. A separate action is prohibited only when the court handling the foreclosure action has actually granted or denied a deficiency claim. In quashing the First District's decision, the Court agreed with decisions from the other four districts: Garcia v. Dyck-O'Neal, Inc., 178 So. 3d 433 (Fla. 3d DCA 2015); Dyck-O'Neal, Inc. v. Hendrick, 200 So. 3d 181 (Fla. 5th DCA 2016); Gdovin v. Dyck-O'Neal, Inc., 198 So. 3d 986 (Fla. 2d DCA 2016); and, Dyck-O'Neal, Inc. v. McKenna, 198 So. 3d 1038 (Fla. 4th DCA 2016). The decision provides a number of important lessons for practitioners. First, the Court remarked on the First District Court of Appeal's reliance on an earlier decision which in turn relied on an earlier version of the statute. The 2013 amendments to the statute included the italicized language quoted above. Thus, relying on a prior court decision for statutory interpretation may require determining whether and how the statute has changed over time. Strategically, the legislative change allows, if not begs for, forum shopping. After all, why would a deficiency claimant go through the exercise of drafting a new complaint, incurring filing fees and service fees, starting from scratch, as opposed to merely proceeding with a deficiency. The proofs would be similar. One exception, of course, would be if the foreclosure action was a purely in rem proceeding without obtaining personal jurisdiction over the borrowers; however, in that instance a foreclosure judgment would presumably not reserve jurisdiction for a deficiency. In the condominium context it is noted that for quite some time the courts recognized that the Condominium Act provided a separate independent basis for a money damage claim. Maya Marca Cd'm Apts., Inc. v. O'Rourke, 669 So.2d 1089 (Fla. 4th DCA 1996). Last week the First District Court of Appeal acknowledged the Lanham reversal in apparently similar case, Dyck-O'Neal, Inc. v. Stermilli, Case No. 1D17-3396 (Fla. 1st DCA, August 3, 2018). Michael J.

Small but very good
This bar would have rated 'Excellent' if it was bigger but because it is narrow and deep it has no air flow through it so it gets both rather hot inside (although my visit was in February which is hot and humid) and can get a lot of smoke from the smokers who cluster around the tables at the open end (sorry I'm a life long non-smoker :). Other than those quibbles the place is clean and well decorated, the seating comfortable, the drinks are cold and the service is good. The owner is also usually available to chat to as are a bunch of expat regulars and these guys can give out some valuable tips about the area. I didn't try the food but it seems that most, if not all, of the reviewers who did agree that it is excellent. One thing to note is that the sign outside is very small and its easy to miss so watch out for the Orange Mart across the road.

A great little bar built on the Irish Pub theme. Sit and have an icy cold beer or cocktail and watch the world pass by before you.

Sunday Lunch
The Sunday lunch is enormous with a wide variety of veggies and lots of meat, could do with a bit more seasoning though, especially the gravy. A great place to eat if you are missing a bit of home. My advice, skip breakfast before a visit.

Heaven on a plate is the best way I can describe this dish chosen from "Around My French Table" by Dorie Greenspan this week. You can find it on pages 254 and 255.
The ingredient list is somewhat on the longish side but each and every one of them comes together in the end and can be tasted and appreciated for having played a small part in this hearty and homey dish. I didn't exactly follow Dorie's method for making this recipe but I did, in fact, follow her list of ingredients which was superb.
The sprinkling of gremolata over the top before serving gives this dish adds yet another depth of flavor that heightens the enjoyment of this highly flavorful and now buttery cut of beef. So simple and yet makes this dish a stand out and not your ordinary Midwestern mid-week fair! The word special comes to mind!
As this dish was braising in the oven in it's lovely beef stock, fruity red wine, assorted aromatic veggies and herbs, and the lovely port wine, the one word that kept coming to my mind to describe the aroma filling my home was buttery. I know that might sound odd because there is no butter anywhere in this recipe but just have a look at the following picture and I think you'll see exactly why buttery kept coming to mind! Ahhhhh!
I served these wonderful braised short ribs over a smooth and creamy bed of polenta and before too long our plates were licked clean and we had to hold ourselves back from devouring what was left in the pot! Two thumbs up and 5 stars later I can not recommend this recipe highly enough. Go now, buy the book and cook your own. You can thank me later!
Until we eat again,

Amid this climate of danger and strife, in the alleys and brothels of Memphis, an extraordinary young woman comes of age. To spare her siblings from starvation, Doricha is sold into prostitution. But she has gifts beyond mere beauty. Through wit and determination, she works her way into the realm of the hetaerae—courtesans of exceptional refinement.
As a hetaera, Doricha has access to the schemes and negotiations that shape the world. But the rich and powerful also have access to her, and Doricha soon finds herself in the Pharaoh's harem, caught up in his reckless schemes. When the Pharaoh sends her off to his fiercest enemy, thinly cloaked by a dangerous ruse, Doricha must become a double agent if she hopes to survive. Caught between the Pharaoh and the Persian king Cambyses, it is Doricha—once a slave, now a woman of great but secret power—who will determine Egypt's fate.
Persian Rose is Part 2 of the White Lotus trilogy.


text: LONDON (MarketWatch) -- The International Energy Agency on Thursday said it expects 2009 energy demand to rise 1% from 2008 levels as it slightly tweaked this year's forecast demand higher by 80,000 barrels of oil a day. The IEA noted that the bunching of new projects and Saudi Arabia's pledge for 250,000 barrels a day in additional production should lead to an increase in crude oil spare capacity next year. But it said current high prices are not just about crude oil tightness, noting refinery tightness is also a major contributor.

Return on investment (ROI) is always top of mind when considering the purchase of hotel systems. Few want to buy a system that will pay for itself in five to 10 years—especially those with a bent toward flipping a property. Many hoteliers demand an ROI of two years or less. That is often achievable, especially with the help of a rebate or government incentive. Sometimes you need assistance to justify investment in a system that helps your property become more sustainable (e.g., reduce its carbon emissions). That said, with large-scale renewable energy systems (solar, wind, cogeneration, etc.), rebates or incentives are just not enough to convince a hotel owner to pull the trigger on an investment.
Fortunately for those interested in purchasing more costly, large-scale power-generating systems, suppliers have gotten creative with their business models. Power purchase agreements (PPAs), ones that require no money down on the part of the hotel owner, have become quite common and prominent hotel companies and entrepreneurs are taking advantage of that option.
The most prominent recent example of a PPA is one involving MGM Resorts International and NRG Energy Inc. Late last October, NRG Energy and MGM Resorts International announced the completion of the world's largest rooftop solar array on a convention center. Covering approximately 20 acres atop the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, the 6.4 megawatt (MW dc) photovoltaic array will produce enough electricity to power the equivalent of approximately 1,000 U.S. homes annually and is the first of its kind on the Las Vegas Strip.
MGM Resorts and NRG are also building an additional 2 MW dc photovoltaic array atop an expansion of the Mandalay Bay Convention Center. Once completed—possibly as early as August this year—that system, combined with the first solar installation, is expected to provide pricing stability and reduce energy draw from the southern Nevada grid during the hottest time of the day, which is also peak electricity demand. During peak demand, the solar installation should provide about 26 percent of the building's electricity.
Mandalay Bay is buying the energy created by the array though a PPA with NRG Energy. Chris Brophy, vice president of corporate sustainability division for MGM Resorts International, said NRG funded and built the array and also will on the expansion. NRG is selling power directly to Mandalay Bay. That cost for the electricity is at a lower rate than what would be purchased from NV Energy. NRG is responsible for the maintenance of the system. Not a bad deal.
Brophy said the first phase of the installation on Mandalay Bay Resort Conference and Convention Center is a proof of concept, adding that MGM Resorts International is putting out a portfolio-wide RFP that would cover just about all of its properties with solar—seven additional properties.
Similarly, almost exactly two years ago, the owners of the New York Hilton in Midtown Manhattan worked out an agreement with Anaergia Inc. that saw the hotel get a cogeneration plant that generates 1,750 kW of clean electricity and 2,700 kW of heat for building operations. This satisfies more than 50 percent of the electricity demand and 35 percent of the steam demand for the nearly 2,000 guestrooms. Anaergia designed, built, owns, and operates the clean energy system. The Hilton is purchasing the energy through a PPA. The system is expected to reduce operating expenses of the building by nearly half a million dollars each year over the 20-year life of the contract. Again, a great deal.
Expect PPAs to become even more popular in the months and years ahead as renewable energy system costs continue to go down and increasing numbers of vendors offer such systems and services.

"If women are dissuaded or excluded from even a handful of opportunities, she continued, the loss to science is enormous."
As an undergraduate student in biology, I spent several weeks in Costa Rica one summer with an older graduate student on a research project deep in the cloud forest. It was just the two of us, and upon arriving at our site, I discovered that he had arranged a single room for us, one bed.
Mortified but afraid of being labeled prudish or difficult, I made no fuss. I took the lodge owner aside the next day and requested my own bed. The problem ended there, and my graduate student boss never made any physical advances.
Reflecting back, I'm struck by how ill equipped I was to deal with this kind of situation, especially at 19. My university undoubtedly had a harassment policy, but such resources were thousands of miles away. I was alone in a foreign country and had never received any training on my rights and resources in the field.
I'd forgotten about this experience from two decades ago until I read areport published July 16 in the journal PLOS One. Kathryn Clancy, an anthropologist at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and three colleagues used email and social media to invite scientists to fill out an online questionnaire about their experiences with harassment and assault at field sites; they received 666 responses, three quarters of them from women, from 32 disciplines, including anthropology, archaeology, biology and geology.
Almost two-thirds of the respondents said they had been sexually harassed in the field. More than 20 percent reported being sexually assaulted. Students or postdoctoral scholars, and women were most likely to report being victimized by superiors. Very few respondents said their field site had a code of conduct or sexual harassment policy, and of the 78 who had dared to report incidents, fewer than 20 percent were satisfied with the outcome.
The findings are depressingly similar to the data some colleagues and I collected this year from an online questionnaire sent to science writers.
Take me to the complete story . . .

A new features in Lotus Notes Domino 8 is the ability to use Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) outbound authentication (SMTP AUTH) to relay hosts. Most Internet Service Providers (ISPs) usually only allow authenticated Lotus Notes Domino users/servers to relay email through their Lotus Domino servers. When using the SMTP outbound authentication feature, you don't have to worry about that.
- Make sure you already have a Configuration Settingsdocument for the Lotus Domino server(s) to be configured.To set up the SMTP outbound authentication feature in Lotus Notes Domino 8, follow these simple steps:
- From the Domino Administrator, click the Configuration tab and expand the Messaging section.
- Click Configurations.
- Select the Configuration Settings document for the Lotus Domino mail server or servers you want to administer, and click Edit Configuration.
- Now click the Router/SMTP - Basics tab.
- In the field labeled Use authentication when sending messages to the relay host, choose one of these:
- Required: This checks whether the Lotus Domino 8 server can authenticate. If the server cannot authenticate, no attempt is made to try a unauthenticated session.
- Enabled: This determines whether the Lotus Domino 8 server can authenticate. If it cannot, an attempt is made to try an unauthenticated session.
- Disabled: The SMTP authentication feature is disabled. Authentication is not attempted.

Can you give some examples of the quieter stuff? I'd like to hear other than variations of the Poem of Ecstasy.PS He actually succumbed in Moscow in 1915, so also missed the Revolution. Interesting to speculate what would have happened with him.
CATO- I'm leaning towards Feinberg in the Mazurkas... can we talk about Pizzaro vs. Music&Arts Guy vs. Marta/Nimbus vs. ... who else??...STILL WANT TO KNOW HOOOW HE GOT THAT PIMPLE!!!!
Who else?Also, Ruth Laredo, who died 13 years ago at a too-young age!As for the septicemia from an infected "pimple" (more accurately a boil or "furuncle") on his lip, the mustache is probably the reason. Probably it hid the boil for too long, and I can imagine Scriabin (perhaps) not wanting to shave the mustache because of vanity, and thinking the pimple/boil would just dissipate on its own. One source (Peter Deane Roberts in a collection of essays called Music of the Twentieth Century Avant-Garde (Larry Sitsky, Editor) ) says that Scriabin had noticed a sore one his upper lip in 1914, a year before his death. Possibly it never completely healed, but stayed dormant, and then something caused it to become inflamed again. Another source said it was an insect bite, rather than a sore caused by dirt or bacteria building up in the thick mustache.But this source The Alexander Scriabin Companion, offers the best medical explanation:https://books.google.com/books?id=QQ8oDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA129&lpg=PA129&dq=Scriabin+%2B+boil+on+the+lip&source=bl&ots=uW8s2YnRDB&sig=9bbePX8ww9HG0Ea2CDbHzK11KUY&hl=en&sa=X& did him ved=0ahUKEwjAv7HWiJXcAhVNbK0KHWPYDuwQ6AEIWjAP#v=onepage&q=Scriabin%20%2B%20boil%20on%20the%20lip&f=false
what's the problem people?
The problem is that liking things played FAST is not necessarily valued by that large segment of the population that doesn't tend towards writing in all caps and using many more punctuation marks than usual. You like your music manic because that's the way you roll. Not all listeners or performers share your personality.As to why you like older recordings, different cultures also have different artistic values so maybe it just happens that there were more people who valued FAST classical music at that time compared to now.
Piano Sonata No.10 Op.70I'm just not 'getting it'. It seems quite "pure",... yet, "godless" (as in, what's the point)... I've only heard one rendition where it actually sounds like "insects" (don't remember), and this was the fastest performance I'd heard: yes, at that speed, the insects "come alive"... in all other versions, all I hear are "trills".In a way, it's quite Moderne, as in Debussy's Etudes... but,at the speeds most are playing (@12.3 minutes... some go to 14.5, the quickest one was around 10), the piece barely hangs together for me... there's just so many silences and spaces, followed by a little tinkling or noodling...Is everyone missing the boat here?? Does the piece need to be radically reinterpreted?I have Volodos: at 12 minutes, all I get is a "beautiful" rendition of music that I'm not understanding (I understood it quite well when I heard that fast version).ANYONE?
YES! Ponti keeps pooping up as a singular voice of blazing glory, such as in his 10 minute No.8. Neuhaus, also, is the only one who actually made the music sound like... and I do think No.10 sounds like the sounds of Egypt and scarabs and mysterious purity of sand...Been dipping into the Decca 'Mysterium'...been on the Scriabin train for a ...month now,... such an arc of trajectory
Scriabin is an addictive drug, so be careful! Especially with the Scriabin/Nemtin MYSTERIUM !Or is too late?!

Spelling bee
I went over to cover a spelling bee last weekend and made some nice photos. I like things like this, they are different and different is usually good. I like expressions and moments and these kids have expressions for sure. Spelling was something I was not very good at when I was in grade school, or for a long time after as a matter of fact. I am impressed that these kids are able to spell words that I would still have to look up, like the winning word exuviate...I don't even know what that means, ha.

Would You Rather… – Changing the World for the Better [POLL]
Matt and Naomi from your Workday Kick-Off ask you another 'Would You Rather' question. This time, you get the chance to change the world, and make it better.
If you had the ability to change the world for the better, would you do it? What if you were given two options on how you could make the planet a nicer place to live, but you were only able to choose one? Well, that's what Matt and Naomi ask you in this week's Would You Rather...
Here's how it works: You can make a difference in the world, solve a major crisis. So which crisis do you solve? Do you -
A. End World Hunger, or
B. Find a Cure for Cancer
If you had to chose one, what would you chose? Matt and Naomi couldn't agree on this one. Matt Hubbell would rather find a cure for cancer - There's a lot of different types of cancer, and to be able to cure them all would save so many lives. Naomi Lynn, on the other hand would end world hunger - She believes no one should ever be hungry, and living the way we do, we often don't see how other people in other countries (and even in our own town), are suffering.
So what would you do? What way would you make a difference? Vote below!
Matt and Naomi will share the results during the Workday Kick-Off on Lite 98.7. You can also share your opinion on our Lite 98.7 WLZW Facebook Page
And on the phone: (315) 721-0987

NGOs say a free concert at Wat Phnom will help raise awareness about the plight of the 21,000 children working as domestic helpers
World Vision and Licadho say that Cambodian children routinely leave their homes to work as servants in Phnom Penh, Battambang, Kampong Cham and Siem Reap, where there are an estimated 21,000 minors employed as domestic helpers.
WAT Phnom is to play host to a public concert this afternoon as part of a campaign to raise public awareness of the dangers faced by the Kingdom's underage domestic workforce.
The concert, organised by World Vision Cambodia (WVC) and Cambodian rights group Licadho, is the fourth such event to highlight the plight of child workers under the core theme, "I Protect Children, Do You?"
"The concert is intended to highlight the rights of child domestic workers to education, health care, and protection from abuse and exploitation," said Lor Monirith, manager of the Combating Worst Forms of Child Labour project at WVC.
"The concert will include pop music, drama and comedy shows that reinforce messages about the rights of domestic workers."
The problem of child domestic workers cannot be ignored.
An invisible problem
Vann Sophath, deputy director of communications and advocacy at Licadho, said the issue of child employment would have far-reaching effects on the country's future.
"Child domestic workers are a problem that cannot be ignored," he said. "The government and society - especially homeowners who employ children - should make a conscious effort to stop domestic child labour."
Vann Sophath added that children in such jobs were more vulnerable than adults. "Child domestic workers may work in exploitive conditions, working far longer and earning much less than other labourers," he said.
Lor Monirith added that employment often stunted a child's ability to gain a good education and forge a better future for himself.
"Child domestic labour can have major consequences for children's health, safety and development, especially if they are deprived of an education," he said.
"The lack of an education will affect on a child's life forever, and it also weakens the Cambodian society and economy, since uneducated children will grow up to be uneducated adults."
Yim Po, executive director of the Cambodian Center for the Protection of Children's Rights, said that he was happy the two organisations were working together to raise awareness of the issue, expressing his hope that the "occasion of the Water Festival will attract children and parents, helping them understand the impact of domestic work [on children]".

Another Cautionary Tale: This One from a Private University
Court Revives Claremont McKenna Student's Appeal Over Sexual Misconduct Suspension
The Second District Court of Appeal held that in a case that turned on believing the accuser's version of conflicting accounts, the process should have included opportunities to hear from the accuser in person or by video conference and to ask her appropriate questions.
By Ross Todd | August 9, 2018 | Law.com
A California appellate court has revived the appeal of a Claremont McKenna College student who was suspended for a year for violating the school's sexual misconduct policy.
The Second District Court of Appeal on Wednesday found that in cases "where the accused student faces a severe penalty and the school's determination turns on the complaining witness's credibility," the fact-finding body should hear directly from the accuser. The court also determined that the accused should have the opportunity to question the accuser, even if only indirectly—an opportunity, wrote Justice Helen Bendix in Wednesday's 29-page opinion, that "not exist here."
The decision is the latest California appellate decision to shed light on the difficult task universities face in balancing accused students' due process rights with concerns about protecting victims and campuses safety. The Second District previously held in 2016 that a University of Southern California football player hadn't been given sufficient notice of the allegations against him or a fair hearing by the school before being suspended.
Alexander Cote of Scheper Kim & Harris in Los Angeles, who represents the John Doe Claremont McKenna student in the case, said that he was "grateful" that the court accepted his client's arguments about how finders of fact should handle cases "where credibility is the key issue."
"I think this opinion gives a lot of guidance to schools going forward so they're fair to everybody, both for the accused and the accuser," Cote said.
The events that led to Wednesday's decision involving a male student who was a freshman at Claremont McKenna in the fall of 2014, referred to in the case as John Doe, and female student who was a freshman at neighboring Scripps College, referred to as Jane Roe. According to the final report from the school's investigator, the two went back to John's room one night in October of that year when both were drunk, began kissing and undressed each other. John left at some point to get condoms from outside his resident advisor's room, but struggled to keep one on. From there, John and Jane's accounts of the encounter diverge.
After Jane reported John to her school's Title IX office four months after the encounter, the committee reviewing the case at Claremont accepted her contention that she didn't consent to have unprotected sex. Committee members also found the fact that Jane sustained injuries during the encounter and sought medical treatment afterward corroborated her testimony that John became rough during sex, and that she had struggled to break free. The committee also found that John's own words—that Jane didn't seem "super into it" and that he couldn't remember her verbally giving consent—weighed against him.
At the court of appeals, John's lawyers argued that he was denied a fair hearing since neither he nor the Committee asked any Jane questions, and there was no basis for the committee to evaluate her credibility.
"We agree that Jane's not appearing at the hearing either in person or via videoconference or other means deprived John of a fair hearing where John faced potentially serious consequences and the case against him turned on the Committee's finding Jane credible," wrote Bendix, who was joined in her decision by Second District colleagues Victoria Gerrard Chaney and Laurie Zelon.
Apalla Chopra of O'Melveny & Myers, who represents the school in the case, directed a request for comment to a Claremont McKenna spokesman. Peter Hong, associate VP for public affairs and communications at the school, said in an email that the college is currently reviewing the opinion to determine next steps, including a potential appeal to the California Supreme Court.
"Claremont McKenna College is committed to protecting the civil rights of all members of our community, which includes responding appropriately to all complaints of sexual misconduct, and providing all parties involved in such complaints with access to a grievance process that is fair, prompt, and equitable," Hong said. "The College firmly believes that the grievance process followed in this case met or exceeded relevant legal requirements for expectations under federal and state law."

Come to the Fifth Annual Friends Art Market!
Come to the Fifth Annual Friends Art Market!
Visitors will be able to shop from local artisans and tour stunning exhibitions Nov. 16-17 during Friends of the International Quilt Study Center & Museum's Fifth Annual Art Market.
"The works displayed and available for purchase at Art Market are unique and one of a kind," said Marilyn McGahan, a Friends board member. "The array of talent shown by the artisans sparks appreciation of their work and gratitude for their willingness to share their talents. I always find unique gifts for special friends."
Featuring crafts and products created by 19 Nebraska and regional makers and artisans, works include baskets, jewelry, ceramics, paintings, wood items, fiber arts and more. The Art Market is the Friends organization's largest fundraiser to benefit the museum. Merchants give 40 percent of sales to the museum and a Friends' sponsored table will donate 100 percent of its sales to the organization.
Exhibitions on display during Art Market include "Cheddar Quilts from the Joanna S. Rose Collection," "Discovering the Collection: A 20-Year Journey" and "The Mark Dunn Collection."
"Cheddar Quilts from the Joanna S. Rose" showcases 19th century quilts featuring what today's scholars call "cheddar" quilts. These textiles are made from a distinctive color produced with chrome orange, a mineral dye. Introduced as a pigment in 1809, chrome orange grew in popularity in the 1820s.
Rose, the New York-based collector, is known for her collection of more than 650 red and white quilts, which appeared in the 2011 exhibition "Red and White Quilts: Infinite Variety" at the Park Avenue Armory in New York City. Her large collection of antique American yellow-orange quilts are lesser known.
Calling herself a treasure hunter rather than collector, Rose began buying quilts in the 1950s. She was drawn to bright orange quilts initially as décor for her family's Thanksgiving celebrations.
Though little is known about most of the quilts in Rose's collection, cheddar quilts were traditionally made in the 19th Century in Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Virginia, particularly in communities with large German backgrounds. The orange was paired with reds, blues and greens, other colors often found in German folk art of the time.
Carolyn Ducey draws from her 20-year career as the museum's curator of collections to highlight some of her favorite pieces in "Discovering the Collection: A 20-Year Journey." Featuring antique American, international and studio art quilts, the exhibition offers a snapshot of her experience working alongside scholars, collectors and volunteers to build the world's largest publicly held quilt collection.
"The Mark Dunn Collection" draws from the private collection of the president and owner of Moda Fabrics.
Dunn has become an avid collector of antique and art quilts, and his eclectic collecting habits provide him with a way to invest in today's artists and quiltmakers. Dunn is committed to preserving the heritage and future of the textile industry.
The Art Market's hours will run from 1-7 p.m. on Nov. 16 and 9 a.m.-4 p.m. on Nov. 17. The museum is located on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's East Campus at 33rd and Holdrege streets. Admission to the museum and its galleries will be free during the event.
"The Art Market has taken its place in Lincoln as the premier art sale for quality items at affordable prices," said Janee Dlugosh, a Friends board member. "There is something for everyone's taste. You will find unique treasures you will not be able to live without."
