Model Tilted 60L - Without mixer
The fruit distilling pot still is a distillation assembly designed for home-made brandy making. Through the distillation process, an alcoholic distillate is obtained from the alcohol fermentation of fruit mash (plums, pears, apricots, grapes, etc.). The distillation pot still consists of a copper boiler to which heat is applied that enables vaporization of the alcohol, a cooler in which alcohol is condensed and a connecting tube that connects both of the vessels.All the parts of the distillation pot still that get in contact with alcoholic distillate during the distillation process are made of pure copper. During the distillation process, copper binds i.e. neutralizes a large portion of the acid and other chemical impurities that are generated during fruit fermentation or distillation itself.
The boiler is the most important part of any distillation pot still. Boilers with two-piece furnace (tumblers) are manufactured with a mixer or a copper sieve.The brandy making tumbler type pot still consists of a furnace, with a mounted-on boiler, on top of which a lid is placed and fastened by a latch and a lug to the boiler. The boiler is connected to a cooler by a connecting tube called a lyne arm.The cooler has a condenser coil with alcohol vapor passing through. The connecting tube is placed into cups at the boiler and the cooler. A crank connected to the shaft transfers the rotation by gearing. A mixer is connected to the shaft. A copper sieve prevents burning of the mash during the distillation process. The mixer prevents the mash burning during the distillation process with simple and easy handling.The furnace consists of two parts. The bottom part has got a fuel feed door opening, and the upper part has got a flue gas exhaust on the upper opposite side.
*Due to the presence of high temperatures, we recommend refractory bricklaying of the furnace bottom part to extend the furnace service life.
The cooler or condenser is a vessel made of galvanized sheet metal and filled with cool water, containing a copper condenser coil. The coil lower part exits the vessel and alcohol distillate drips through it. For complete alcohol distillate condensation, the cooling water temperature shall not exceed 25°C; the maximum temperature on the top surface of the water that is discharged from the vessel shall be 60°C. That is why it is necessary to control the temperature during the brandy distillation process and add cold water if required. Simultaneously, hot water shall flow out through the overflow tube (3) on the cooler upper edge. The cooler lower part is furnished with a stop valve (6), through which water is drained upon completed brandy making. The cooler has got a three-legged base (4). The cooler jacket (1) is made of galvanized sheet metal with the sheet thickness of 0.5 mm.
*** Due to the constant investment in product improvement, there may be a difference in the appearance of the cooler compared to picture on our web shop . The changes will not affect the functionality of the product.

Averaging Down
When an investor buys more of a stock as the price goes down. This makes it so your average purchase price decreases. You might use this strategy if you believe that the general consensus about a company is wrong, so you expect the stock price to rebound later.
Bear Market
Trading talk for the stock market being in a downward trend, or a period of falling stock prices. This is the opposite of a bull market. If a stock price plummets, it's very bearish.
Blue Chip Stocks
The stocks behind large, industry-leading companies. They offer a stable record of significant dividend payments and have a reputation of sound fiscal management. The expression is thought to have been derived from blue gambling chips, which is the highest denomination of chips used in casinos.
Bull Market
When the stock market as a whole is in a prolonged period of increasing stock prices. It's the opposite of a bear market. A single stock can be bullish or bearish too, as can a sector, which I'll describe later on.
Day Trading
The practice of buying and selling within the same trading day, before the close of the markets on that day, is called day trading. This is my primary trading strategy, although I have a long-term portfolio, as well. Traders who participate in day trading are often called "active traders" or "day traders."
A portion of a company's earnings that is paid to shareholders, or people that own that company's stock, on a quarterly or annual basis. Not all companies pay dividends. For instance, if you trade penny stocks, you're likely not after dividends.
I'm not a fan of leverage, but it's good for you to know this stock market term. When you use leverage, you borrow shares in a stock from your broker with the goal of increasing your profit. If you borrow shares and sell them all at a higher price point, you return the shares and keep the difference. It's a dangerous game that I urge you to avoid playing.
A margin account lets a person borrow money (take out a loan, essentially) from a broker to purchase an investment. The difference between the amount of the loan and the price of the securities is called the margin.
Trading on margin can be dangerous because, if you're wrong about the direction in which the stock will go, you can lose significant cash. You must often maintain a minimum balance in a margin account.
Pink Sheet Stocks
The term "pink sheets" refers most commonly to penny stocks, which are traded at $5 per share or less. They're also called over-the-counter stocks because that's how they are traded. You won't find them on the Nasdaq or NYSE, or any other major exchange, and they're often smaller companies.
Moving Average
A stock's average price-per-share during a specific period of time is called its moving average. Some common time frames to study in terms of a stock's moving average include 50- and 200-day moving averages.
A rapid increase in the general price level of the market or of the price of a stock is known as a rally. Depending on the overall environment, it might be called a bull rally or a bear rally. In a bear market, upward trends of as little as 10 percent can qualify as a rally.
Short Selling
When you short-sell a stock, you borrow shares from someone else with the promise to return them at a point down the road. You then sell the stock for a profit. It's a way to take advantage of a stock that you believe will decrease in price. After you sell short, you can buy back the shares at the lower price point and take the difference in price as your profit.
I use short selling on a regular basis. It's often a smart move in a volatile market if you see patterns that indicate a sharp downward turn for a stock.
This is the difference between the bid and the ask prices of a stock, or the amount for which someone is willing to buy it and the amount for which someone is willing to sell it. For instance, if a trader is willing to trade XYZ stock for $10 and a buyer is willing to pay $9 for it, the spread is $1.
The price movements of a stock or the stock market as a whole. Highly volatile stocks are those with extreme daily up and down movements and wide intraday trading ranges. This is often common with stocks that are thinly traded or have low trading volumes.
I'm a big fan of high-volatility stocks because I can make a big profit off spikes or dips, depending on how I'm trading, in a short period of time. High volatility often makes trading more exciting, but it's also risky if you're inexperienced.
The number of shares of stock traded during a particular time period, normally measured in average daily trading volume. Volume can also mean the number of shares you purchase of a given stock. For instance, buying 2,000 shares of a company is a higher-volume purchase than buying 20 shares.

Delhi garbage crisis: Clean city of its litterbugs
Sanitation workers complain that no matter how much they clean public spaces, residents do nothing to maintain cleanliness.delhi Updated: Jan 03, 2015, 14:00 IST
Despite spending crores, the Capital is yet to rein in its 'Kooda Kumars, Thu Thu Kumars and Su Su Kumars'.
The three characters were envisioned in a public sanitation campaign launched by the city civic agencies in 2009, ahead of the 2010 Commonwealth Games. The campaign targeted litterbugs (Kooda Kumar), spitting in the open (Thu Thu Kumars) and urinating in public (Su Su Kumars).
But no amount of effort seems enough to stop the three 'Kumars' from running riot in the city. Residents use the city like a huge dustbin and leave garbage in the open without thinking twice.
City's dirty roads, parks, markets, monuments bear testimony to the pathetic civic sense of its residents. This indifference remains the enemy number one for basic sanitation in the city.
The municipal corporations spend an estimated Rs 2,000 to remove one tonne of garbage and take them to landfill sites. They further pay Rs 1,000 for mechanically sweeping each kilometre of city roads. But even with a massive manpower of 60,000 and a sweeper for every 3,000 square metres of the city space, the civic agencies have failed to keep the city litter free.
Sanitation workers complain that no matter how much they clean public spaces, residents do nothing to maintain cleanliness. "During the recent cleanliness drives we swept the roads thrice a day but still they remained dirty. People litter at will. Even if there is a dustbin nearby, they still prefer to throw waste on the road," said Munna Lal, a sanitation worker.
A sanitation supervisor said people don't throw waste inside metro stations because they are afraid of being fined. There are similar laws for other public places too but officials say that fines are meagre and are hardly imposed. A proposed amendment to the law to raise the fine amount from the existing Rs 500 — for littering, urinating and spitting in public places — is pending.
Residents, on the other hand, blame the civic agencies for the mess. They say littering cannot be stopped unless the agencies install adequate number of dustbins at all places.
"Just cleaning the garbage stations will not help. If we want people to stop littering, we have to provide dustbins. In most foreign countries, one can find dustbins every 500 metres. Same is the case with public toilets. We need provision of basic infrastructure," said Sanket Mishra, a Vasant Kunj resident.
Fancy dustbins that were installed on the roads ahead of the 2010 Commonwealth Games are lying in utter ruin. Officials said the police stopped them from putting up more such bins because they were used to trigger blasts in the city in 2009.
"We are installing small dustbins in parks. We have taken permission from the Delhi police and have asked market associations to install plastic bins. We make sure that they are cleaned daily," said Mukesh Yadav, director, press and information, South Corporation.

An upscale, sprawling resort, Melia Nassau Beach is located on beautiful and serene Cable Beach. It's a 15-minute drive from the airport, but it's not in walking distance to other attractions.
This hotel boasts both a beach and 25,000 square feet of lagoon-style swimming pools surrounded by lush landscaping. The attractive guest units are spacious, each with a small balcony or patio.
'The Level' rooms are Meliá's 'club' rooms, with dedicated check-in and restaurant reservation services, private sections of the pool and beach, and upgraded amenities.
Although the Meliá is not technically part of the Baha Mar resort, the property has embarked on a series of upgrades to keep pace with the changes to the neighborhood. The large lobby and surrounding bars have a clubby yet casual vibe.

White Paper
Management of application fraud has traditionally been a staid affair. Rules and scorecards have been successful for many years, but we've reached an inflexion point. There are too many changing factors, and organizations that continue to rely on rules, credit bureau data, and batch processing will increasingly struggle to stem the flow of application fraud. Huge data breaches, an increasingly digital economy, and customers that demand instant service call for a new strategy.
Financial services companies are involved in a constant battle to stay ahead of criminals who fraudulently open accounts. This arms race is often limited to incremental changes that are reactive to attacks. In recent years, the factors influencing application fraud have undergone massive changes. This paper looks to establish why now is the time to make a big step up in how you fight application fraud rather than sticking to a strategy of reactive, incremental changes.

- Marcos Alonso has not thought about leaving Chelsea in the summer.
- Both Barcelona and Real Madrid are thought to be interested in Alonso.
- READ MORE: Chelsea target's wife receives death threats over poor form.
Chelsea left-wing-back Marcos Alonso has ruled out the possibility of leaving the club during the summer transfer window.
Alonso joined Chelsea from Fiorentina back in 2016. As soon as Antonio Conte opted to change to a 3-4-3 system, it was clear to see that Alonso was going to thrive – and he has.
The Spaniard has defensive frailties which mustn't be overlooked, but on the front-foot, there is scarcely a better wing-back on the planet.
As per the London Evening Standard, Alonso's excellent performances have seen links to both Real Madrid and Barcelona emerge.
However, he does not appear to be interested in seeking a move away from Stamford Bridge any time soon.
Alonso is quoted by the London Evening Standard saying:
"I have not considered that possibility, I just try to give the best of me to my team."
We ought to be looking to add to our squad this summer, not sell key players. Alonso's willingness to stay put is great news. Let's hope that his teammates follow suit.

As part of a push to expand performing arts on campus, UW Tacoma staged a production of Unwritten Women: Five Short Plays Based on Female Literary Characters from History for three performances on November 14-16 in the black box theater of Cherry Parkes. The play came to campus largely through assistant professor Michael Kula's ongoing efforts to develop a campus-community theatrical collaborative, creating more performing arts opportunities for students in and out of the classroom.
Elena Hartwell, a Seattle-based writer who also teaches Writing for Social Change at UW Tacoma, wrote the play, which is directed Sara Freeman, an associate professor of theater at University of Puget Sound. In addition, Unwritten Women featured live music composed and performed by Nicole Blair, assistant director of undergraduate education at UW Tacoma.
Among the cast were current UW Tacoma students Lucy Lucas, Marae Slyter, Jillian Lee and Akua Asare-Konadu. Recent graduate (and UW Tacoma Library employee) Megan Saunders also had a role.
Marilyn Bennett, a Tacoma School of the Arts (SOTA) faculty member, as well as the artistic director of Toy Boat Theatre in Tacoma, rounded out the six-person cast. Dr. Bennett was brought onboard because, according to Hartwell, "We wanted the students to have the experience of working with a professional."
In describing her work on Unwritten Women, Hartwell says, "The plays explore women who are referenced in or are related to a work of literature … I've re-imagined how those women might have been misrepresented or misunderstood. The plays look at everything from poverty to spousal abuse to piracy – relevant issues, even when framed around the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries."
The setting of the plays is important, as it pertains to the literature on which Unwritten Women is based. Two of the plays were based on Moby Dick, while the others were built around The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Treasure Island and Jonathan Swift's satirical essay, A Modest Proposal for Preventing the Children of Poor People From Being a Burden for their Parents or Country, and for Making Them Beneficial To The Public.
But Hartwell's "reimagining" of the women in these stories makes Unwritten Women more than an homage to literature; it contemporizes them in interesting ways. "These women don't behave in ways that would be considered appropriate for the times they are written in," Hartwell says. "But they are also grappling with contemporary issues, so we can look at current times with the remove of watching characters from the past."
In addition to the unique content of the plays and the overall approach of building from stories that have come before, Unwritten Women was the right choice for UW Tacoma's nascent performing arts scene because, from a technical standpoint, it was easy to produce. Hartwell says that since the production was a new experience for the school, that sense of ease "needed to be taken into account."
Moreover, as the play was made up of several smaller plays, each running approximately 10 minutes in length, and featuring only one or two actors at a time, the performances were prepared and rehearsed for separately, which was of great benefit to the student actors.
"These plays stand on their own, allowing the rehearsal schedule to require only one or two actors at a time," Hartwell explains. "UW Tacoma has a high number of students who work or have families, and would therefore be unable to do a typical 5-night-a-week rehearsal process. The nature of these plays allowed students who wouldn't otherwise be able to audition to participate."
The adjustments to make the audition and rehearsal process more accommodating to students only added to the passion many of them already have for the burgeoning performing arts program on campus. "I think this is a start in creating a potential acting major and other performing arts majors," says cast member and president of the Student Theater Acting Guild (STAG) Marae Slyter. "This is STAG's second year as a club at UW Tacoma, and since we got the funding this year we are able to do more than we could have ever imagined."
"I think this is a start to plan bigger scale productions on campus," Slyter says. "We are also working with the community and our spring production will be open for community members to audition."
The call for the community to lend its support is as important as the support expected from the students, faculty and staff of UW Tacoma. As Hartwell explains, "This is intimate theater at its best. The one thing that theater will always be able to do, which television and film can't, is put living, breathing people in front of you. As an audience member, you are as close to these actors as if they were sitting in your living room, and they are talking to you as you would a friend."
"There is tremendous heart in this show from everyone involved," Hartwell says, encouraging those interested in theater to come see what Michael Kula, STAG and UW Tacoma have worked so hard to achieve. "And a theater is being created right in front of our eyes. That's worth a trip to Cherry Parkes."

In this article we are going to discuss on Paradise Lost; Who is the hero of Paradise Lost? Qualities of Hero, The Idea of Satan as the Hero of Paradise Lost or Why Satan is not the Hero of Paradise Lost.
The hero, as a rule, must be the central figure in the epic and the epic must be about him and his exploits. Moreover, apart from being sacrificing and altruistic, he must have a number of heroic qualities as physical courage, fearlessness, skill in the use of arms, intelligent, foresight, determination and persistence. Whether Satan is the hero of Paradise Lost or not depends on the presence of the above mentioned qualities in him. However to determine it, it is imperative to analyse deep into his character in order to look for the heroic qualities in him.
There can be no gained saying the fact that Satan is the hero of Paradise Lost, in-so-far as Book I and Book II are concerned. He dominates the first two books and towers head shoulders above in companions. He has a huge bulls like a Zeviathan, his shield has a circumference as blood as that of the Moon, and his spear is taller than the tallest pines used for the vast of an admiral ship. He is the Archangel still, though fallen, and his glory has been dimmed only a little. However, he is determined to suffer and endure and never yield or Sue for grace. Being proud and independent, he is also determined to continue his war with God, for him reign in Hell is better than to slave in heaven. He can inspire his followers with his own fortitude and determination like a capable military general. Every word that he utters inspires them with new courage and fortitude. They are, no doubt large in numbers, but still they do not rebel and carry out his orders.
Moreover, like a born leader, he takes upon himself, the hazardous task of journeying through chaos, exploring the new world and corrupting the newly created Man and Woman. His heroism in offering to undertake this dangerous enterprise is greeted by his followers with thunderous applause. As if, in order to heighten the heroism of Satan, Milton has introduced a similar scene in Heaven. The almighty asks his angels to suffer and atone for the sin of Man, none come forward for the task. Thus, Satan in shown to be the bravest and the most heroic of all the Angels. We may also add that in gaining admittance to Eden, he exhibits great tact, intelligence and resourcefulness. His powers of eloquence and his capacity for reasoning succeed in overcoming the Scruples of Eve.
For all these reasons, we should be justified in saying that Satan is the hero of Book I and Book II, but he cannot be regarded as the hero of the epic as a whole. Even in the very opening of Book I, we are told that the epic is not about Satan. It is about Man and his fall, it is about first disobedience of Man and the fruit of that forbidden tree. The poet intends to sing the story of the fall of man and the original Sin, how man was redeemed and his sin attoned by the supreme self sacrifice. If the son of God. Thus, the story is not at all about Satan- no doubt, he is the instrument of the fall of Man. However he achieves this end not through heroic means, but through fraud and guile. Satan may, therefore, be called the villain of the piece with greater justification than its hero. A hero never stoops to guile, he is open and straightforward in his actions and Satan uses his guile not upon Adam, but upon Eve. Moreover, he is moved not by any noble passion, but by the passion of revenge - his motives are ignoble and the means which he uses are equally mean and low.
Now the question arises- Who is the hero of Paradise Lost? Neither god nor his son can be the hero for they are perfect and flawless, while the hero, traditionally, must have some 'flaw' in his character. Which leads ambition - but for being a villain he cannot regarded as the hero of the epic. In this case Adam has better climax to be regarded as the hero of the epic since it is about his disobedience and fall and holds out hopes of his redemption through the suffering and self sacrifice of the Son of god. However, it has been said that Adam is too passive to be hero of the epic, it should not be ignored that Paradise Lost is a classical epic with difference. Its central theme is not the war like exploits of some great warrior, but the eternal war between good and evil for the soul of man. The virtues which are dear to Milton are not the classical virtues - and skill in the use of arms-but Christian virtues such as patience, endurance, and capacity of resignation and self sacrifice. And those virtues Adam has in plenty. He knows the outcome of the act of Eve, but knowingly and intentionally he does not desert her, but heroically decides to suffer with her the loss of Paradise.
Thus it can be safely said that Satan may be the hero of Book I and Book II, but Adam has better claim to be regarded as the hero of the Paradise Lost as whole.

I highly recommend that anyone interested in waste diversion and information/discussion about leading-edge product stewardship or extended producer responsibility (EPR) issues visit and bookmark the website of an organization called the Product Policy Institute. The website is here:
You'll want to visit the "resources" area and download some of the interesting documents posted there.
The Product Policy Institute (PPI) is led by Bill Sheehan — formerly of the GrassRoots Recycling Network (www.grrn.org) — a consumer-focused organization. While it still speaks to the "grassroots," the PPI is a bit more professionalized and its content has more academic bench strength. The website is poised to become a "must visit" resource for anyone interested in environmental protection, waste reduction and sustainable development (i.e., the link between consumer culture, waste generation and the related ecological footprint). The PPI is now, effectively, "Ground Zero" for the Zero Waste movement.
On its home page, the PPI states that it is "addressing the challenge of sustainable production and consumption by seeking out innovative thinkers and experts from business, government, academic and NGO communities to chart a new relationship between government and business in the service of achieving sustainable life styles."
An interesting mission statement!
It goes on: "The dialogue builds on a core of shared values: that government has a duty to protect public assets (variously called the 'commons' and 'public trust'); that government is needed to define and enforce performance standards in the public interest; but then government should give industry the freedom to do what industry does best — innovate to achieve the desired outcomes."
I really like this, and find the PPI's stated goals refreshing and inspiring. The PPI then outlines its Mission, Vision and Strategy:
"Our Mission is to develop and communicate a strong framework for product-focused environmental policies that advance sustainable production and consumption and good governance. Our Vision is a vibrant, sustainable consumer economy in which government takes a leadership role in protecting human and environmental health through policies that reward green businesses providing 'cradle to cradle' management of their products.
"Our Strategy is to connect innovative thinkers and diverse stakeholders to develop a big-picture framework for sustainable production and consumption for a North American audience; to provide problem-centered input and solutions to high impact problems in the arena of product production, consumption and disposal; and to communicate policy solutions effectively."
Having pointed readers in the PPI's direction, I trust they'll realize its importance for themselves and get involved.
To that, I'd like to add a few sentiments of my own.
A few years ago — when he was dying from cancer — I asked my friend, environmentalist Gary Gallon, out for lunch. He and I both knew, without stating it, that this might be the last time we saw one another (which it was). The premise of the lunch was an interview for a profile article I would write that eventually appeared as a cover story for HazMat Management magazine. It was unusual for the trade magazine to profile an environmentalist on its cover, but in addition to being my tribute to Gary, it was an excuse to celebrate the evolution of environmentalism and sustainable development into a phenomenon that's gradually becoming part of corporate culture, not an exterior enemy. In that regard, Gary (who was taken from us at the young age of 54) was a transitional figure, having made the shift from hippy-ish ecologist to environment industry professional. (I got to know Gary well when he rented office space from us in our old magazine digs in downtown Toronto. He was executive director of what is now ONEIA — the Ontario Environment Industry Association.)
At the lunch I asked Gary what advise he had for young people who want to protect the environment. Should they become environmentalists and join groups like GreenPeace (of which Gary was a co-founder)? I asked.
"No," Gary replied. "In my time we were on the outside throwing stones. Then some of us joined government so we could directly access power and make regulatory changes. [Gary was a policy advisor to former Ontario environment minister Jim Bradley, who introduced far-reaching environmental legislation during his term of office.] But now what's needed is young people to go into the corporate world and change companies from within."
Since then I've noted that, while there are still GreenPeace-style activists on the outside "throwing stones" (and I believe we need them) there's another breed of environmentalist that I think represents a more mature phase of the movement — a phase that's crucial for where we're headed (or need to head) in any journey to toward sustainability. These environmentalists may not even think of nor describe themselves as such. They're a sophisticated group of deep thinkers and organizers who are tackling updated challenges, and they include people like Amory Lovins (the Rocky Mountain Institute), Toronto-based Lawrence Solomon of the Urban Renaissance Institute and Zero Waste advocate Helen Spiegelman (of Vancouver, also on the Product Policy Institute board), and Orangeville, Ontario-based Usman Valiante, among others.
People like these offer a refreshing perspective because they're independent thinkers and have gone beyond traditional adversarial activism that reduces the world into "good" environmentalists and "bad" corporations motiivated by greed. Let's face it, back in Gary Gallon's youth (and mine), factory and chemical plant smokestacks and pipes directly spewed untreated toxic wastes directly into the air and waterways. It was the era of leaded gasoline, worry-free smoking, and "living better through electricity." Although much work remains to be done, the "low hanging fruit" has been picked, in terms of the installation of primary and sometimes secondary treatment equipment at these plants. We're now at the "industrial ecology" stage, where the energy use, natural resource consumption and environmental impacts of a product over the course of its entire lifecycle have to be examined, and changes made. (These include not producing certain items in the first place.)
Among the many interesting observations and ideas from the "new environmentalists" is that the problem is not the "market" or "capitalism." They recognize that everything is a "market" and that to oppose markets is like opposing gravity or ocean tides. Instead, they recognize that market forces are neither virtuous or evil, and can be harnessed for all kinds of public and private good. But markets can also have problems that need correction. One of these (maybe the biggest) is subsidies.
The subsidies are, in fact, non-market (or even anti-market) government gifts to companies and sometimes whole industries that may include money (grants, forgiveable loans, etc.) and also what Valiante calls "useful regulatory instruments." The latter can take many different forms. One example is regulations that on the surface appear to be prohibitions against pollution, but are in fact licenses to pollute within a prescribed limit. Another is exemption from certain regulations, or certificates of approval to build, expand and/or operate a facility granted by politicians against the wishes of local opponents who are dismissed as "NIMBYs."
A great example of a useful regulatory instrument "purchased" by a powerful industry lobby was the exemption of the soft drink industry in the United States from the anti-trust and combines legislation there, that allowed the major soft drink companies to dismantle the established bottle refilling and deposit-refund system and replace it with a system of one-way "throwaway" beverage containers. The companies at the time even managed to convince most U.S. lawmakers (though not all) that their special exemption was for the greater cause of environmental protection (to protect their bottle refilling system) when it was in fact the very opposite. Insidiously, the companies managed to corrupt and control the agenda — by partially funding the startup of curbside collection programs — and re-branding their throwaway packaging "recyclable" to the extent that policymakers are now reduced to negotiating whether used beverage containers should be collected for recycling on deposit, or not, which neatly sidesteps the larger and more important debate of whether the recyclabe/throwaway containers should be allowed in the first place. The companies avoid mention of the high-speed super-efficient refilling systems in places like Germany where most soft drinks are sold (by the very same companies) in refillable containers. In other words, the 3Rs hierarchy has been overturned, and not by accident.
Corporate representatives nowadays sit on the boards of various Industry Funding Organizations (IFOs) that formulate strategies and oversee the development of various emerging product stewardship programs. It's not their fault at all that they participate in the IFOs — in most cases they're legally required to do so. And there's nothing nefarious in the fact that they (rationally and predictably) pursue policies that reflect their commercial interests.
The problem is that, time and again, governments allow and even encourage the development of programs that give the appearance of being environmentally progressive when, in fact, they are simplistic programs that stick an advance disposal fee onto a consumer item and allow "business as usual" for producers and consumers. True, the product stewardship programs (if properly designed and independently audited) may succeed in diverting certain wastes from landfill disposal. That may be desireable but is really the "right answer to the wrong question." Zero Waste proponents like the folks at the Product Policy Institute would likely say that the better question is "what is the most eco-efficient product and packaging, over a product's entire lifecycle." Ask that question and you start generating EPR answers that include design for environment (DfE), and not simply waste diversion solutions.
From this perspective, the entire Blue Box curbside recycling system is the right answer to the wrong question. In fact, it represents a mostly "business as usual" scenario for producers, who continue to externalize their costs onto the environment, and ratepayers. One of the PPI's central ideas is that municipalities have been duped in the past half century into becoming "enablers" to co-dependent industry, carting off an ever-increasing tide of "product waste" at no cost to industry. These days, more and more of the items (which increasingly include short lifespan electronic products like computers, MP3 players and cellphones that are obsolete almost from the moment they're sold) contribute to a growing amount of waste. there's no "feedback loop" connecting upstream manufacturers to the upstream and downstream environmental impacts of their products and wastes. End the subsidies (at each stage of production, and the carting away of wastes), the Zero Waste proponents will argue, and much of that feedback loop will come into effect.
Let's assume that in the next few years the stated goal of governments across North America will be reached. Let's imagine that something like 60 per cent (or higher) of our "garbage" is "diverted from landfill." Let's imagine that about a third of the total waste stream is recycled through Blue Box-style programs, and another third is composted through various organics "Green Bin" programs. Let's also imagine that a considerable amount of products are kept out of the waste stream entirely via various product stewardship programs. One day, there will be a program for scrap tires, used oil, household hazardous waste (batteries, pesticides, etc.), fluorescent bulbs, used electronics ("e-waste"), and so on. Oh happy day! But, what will we have acheived?
Only a small part of what the Zero Waste proponents argue we need. While it's true that recycling offsets the upstream energy inputs and environmental externalities of natural resource extraction, this is only a small part of what's required for sustainability — the business of getting us to the place where everyone on this planet can live a reasonably comfortable life without the five planets that would be required if everyone lived as Americans (and Canadians) do. With the growth of consumerism and markets in China and India, we need to worry about this, urgently.
Curbside recycling and product stewardship programs are desirable for certain materials, to be sure, and they are important tools in our sustainability toolbox. But using them while ignoring the 3Rs hierarchy (reduction, reuse) is like a carpenter attempting to build a house with only the screw driver and rasp, and not also using the hammer, saw and pliers (etc.). So, even as the municipal-industrial dream of a content covered in recyclng and composting plants comes to fruition in the next decade or so, we will still need more landfills and waste-to-energy plants (and probably another two or three Earths!) unless the producer responsibility and true product stewardship issues are addressed, and that will require nothing less than fundamental changes in the consumer society.
A few years ago I would have doubted this kind of change was possible. My suspicion now, however, is that a "sleeping giant" is wakening, and a grassroots movement of people concerned about climate change, peak oil, and ecosystems under stress from numerous factors, will gather momentum. It will not be led by corporations, although some progressive companies will get onside (and see some commercial benefits from doing so). It will not be led by municipalities, that will continue to struggle with the tide of waste coming at them, and continue to be preoccupied with building their recycling and composting mini-empires.
It will be led (I think) by a collection of different groups bound by a common interest. Chief among these will be aging Baby Boomers — a "grey power" army of modern "village elders" who will increasingly have both the time and the interest in bringing social change, now that the most consumerist phase of their lives is over (families, larger houses, cars, etc.). They will join with the new generation of idealistic and concerned young people growing up with entrenched environmental values and, let's face it, $100 (and higher) per barrel gasoline. The catalyst will be the intellectuals and organizers of the updated environmental movement, personafied by the board of the Product Policy Institute and similar organizations, who will develop new models and fresh insights into how to change the system and harness market forces for various public and environmental goods. Their ideas wille eventually overtake the simply "waste diversion" philosophy and its technologies. The companies that position themselves at the forefront of this emerging trend will prosper; those that ignore it will slowly fade. Things are changing, and the Zero Waste proponents time has come.

The report by the Environment and Science Research Institute (ESR) outlined the possible effects on human health, as a result of extreme weather, air pollution and UV radiation.
ESR spokesperson Chris Nokes said climate change meant new diseases could arrive in New Zealand.
"Parts of New Zealand are too cold to support certain species of mosquito that may carry diseases we presently regard as being more tropical, but with all of the country becoming warmer it increases the possibility of those mosquitos finding a habitat, and bringing those diseases with them," he said.
The report, commissioned by the Ministry of Health, reviewed international and domestic research to consider what health effects may present over the next 50 to 100 years.
It is the first of its kind in New Zealand.
The report broke down the effects of climate change and looked at what health effects could then arise.
Dr Nokes said extreme weather and rising temperatures could bring drought causing wildfires and water contamination or shortage.
Storms and heavy rain could also affect water quality and flooding – particularly affecting the health of those living in low-lying coastal areas.
But, extreme weather could also bring benefits.
"It could perhaps decrease death rates over winter for elderly or people more vulnerable to colder temperatures," he said.
The other consideration was a breakdown of the ozone layer and less cloud coverage, exposing New Zealanders to higher levels of UV radiation from the sun.
Dr Nokes said too much exposure to UV radiation was unhealthy, but so was too little.
"As people are trying to stay out of the sun to avoid the increased UV radiation then there's the potential for Vitamin D deficiency."
"A number of these effects are two edged swords in many respects."
Dr Nokes said the link between climate change and health was not discussed enough.
"It's surprising that the connection hasn't been made more, because we all live in the environment and changes to that environment are potentially going to have effects on us.
"It's fairly certain that the more we start looking at the overall impacts or expected effects of climate change we're going to need to understand what those effects will be for humans trying to exist in this changing environment."
The Ministry of Health was working with ESR to develop a plan.

How to create a web page file on a Windows PC.
Once you are comfortable with this it is simple also. However because Windows thinks it is smarter than you are and isn't, I'm including instructions on how to deal with that.
Use WordPad or any other plain text editor.
WordPad is a standard part of the Windows operating system and will be found on all Windows computers unless it was deliberately removed by someone. WordPad is NOT MSWord. Use WordPad not Word for this.
( To open WordPad from the Start Menu choose Programs -> Accessories -> WordPad )
Type in the tags and text to make your web page.
See the rest of the site for this, though for your first try at this you can just type anything.
Save the file as plain text.
When the box opens asking you what to save the file as:
Name the file index.html or other legal web file name.
If you are using WordPad: Select Text Document from the dropdown list in the box below the file name when you save.
If you are using NotePad: Select All Files (*.*) as your type.
You will see an alert message warning that your formatting may be lost. This is arrogant nonsense. Don't let it worry you. Press OK.
Check that it really did save the file as the right type.
If it did, the icon for your file will resemble the icon for your default browser.
If your default browser is IE it will look like a sheet of paper with a big blue e.
If Netscape is your default browser it will either have a ship's steering wheel or a large N depending on which version of Netscape you have.
Not Good
If it looks like a notebook with writing on it, or a blank window, or a paper with a W on it, or anything else, it is wrong and you will need to fix it.
How to fix it if it is wrong
If it has a W on it, you will need to save the file again, being sure to save it as a Text Document and saying OK at the warning prompt.
If it is a notebook or a blank window - first try changing the file name to index.html either by clicking on it once and pressing F2 or by left-clicking on it and choosing Rename from the popup menu.
You will probably see another warning box that threatens your file will become unusable. It is lying. Just press 'OK'
If the icon did not change to an IE or Netscape one:

This is the second Corridor when parking at the Chopping Block pull off. Park in front of the Mount Rushmore National Memorial sign. Hike into the trees and this boulder will be to your right in the corridor. Light scrambling gets you to the base. A real pain to come in from the top as it requires down climbing and pad throwing.
Corridor Problem V7**
Starts on small crimps midway through problem #2 above. Work a series of small crimps and pinches up and mantle the interesting mantle. Watch your back on this one and helps to have a spotter.
First Ascent: Michael Madsen
Hirsch Corridor Problem V6/7***
Sharp but good boulder problem. This is the original route found and put up by local Chris Hirsch. SDS and move along a small fissure with small crimp holds jutting from it. SHARP! Move along and work a series of slight tension moves to get to the hidden mantle at the top.

Bolzano…A small city I lived in
I was lucky; I got Erasmus Mundus scholarship. With this scholarship, I had a chance to get to know the small city that named Bolzano that I did not even know it exists in the world. This city is located in the north of Italy and surrounded by mountains. I was able to see mountains around me, even when I was in the city center.
I lived in Bolzano about 11 months starting from mid of September 2011 to mid of August 2012, and studied in Free University of Bozen-Bolzano for 2 semesters. Bozen is a German name while Bolzano is an Italian name. There, I got used to seeing everything in 2 languages: Italian and German.
I was an indoor girl during winter. I spent time with cooking and watching movies. But when summer came, I really enjoyed outdoor activities like cycling there. My friends and I rode bicycles to lake and waterfall. I did the longest bike trip in my life, 50 kilometers round, to Lago di Caldaro. From the trips, I realized that Italy, the world's fashion center, also is one of the choices for nature-lover.
If you go there, I would recommend you to take cable car up to the mountain, enjoy the scenery around, and see 'Earth Pyramids', a unique natural that could be found only around Bolzano.
Another place worth visiting is Lake Carezza (or Karersee in German), the rainbow lake in the Dolomites, South Tyrol. It is one of my favorite places. I like how the green water reflects the mountains. To go there, it takes just only 40 minutes by bus from Bolzano bus terminal.
If you happen to be there during November or December, you can feel the atmosphere of Christmas market. And don't forget to try traditional hot drink which is called mulled wine and apple strudel.
To visit Bolzano, it takes around 4 hours from Milan by train. You can also make a day trip from Innsbruck or Munich. Go there; you will love Bolzano… a small city I lived in.

A DYING Midland motor racing fanatic has cancelled an operation which could save his life - to compete in a rally at Silverstone tomorrow.
Leukaemia victim James Prochowski, who may have as little as three months to live, needs an urgent bone marrow transplant.
But the dad-of-two, from Wythall, has postponed chemotherapy treatment, which is necessary prior to surgery, to fulfil his ambition to take part in the gruelling Britcar 24 Hours marathon.
James, aged 53, who will race in an MG car sponsored by Birmingham's famous UB40 reggae band, insisted he was not being irresponsible. He said: "I'm damned if I do and damned if I don't. This may be the last bit of fun I have and you can't blame me for taking it can you?
"If I don't have the bone marrow transplant I am going to die. It could be three months, it could be a year.
"People such as my exwife may say I'm being irresponsible, but I don't feel as though I am."
James has been battling the disease for five years and has spent lengthy spells in hospital having chemotherapy.
He was left needing bone marrow after suffering a relapse which was sparked when his immune system collapsed after he was bitten by a dog in March. James had been due to start his latest bout of chemotherapy at Heartlands Hospital three weeks ago in preparation for an operation scheduled for this month.
But he said: "It was my plan at the beginning of this year to do this race. I was actually very, very fit in March. Life was fantastic, but then I was bitten by a dog. I was told that I needed a transplant because I have relapsed three times now.
"Leukaemia outsmarts chemotherapy so each time you relapse the time span before it returns gets shorter.
"Going through with the transplant is risky, but once I have it I give myself some chance of longevity."
James, who runs his own company, JP Motorsports, which builds racing cars, last competed in Germany's Nurburgring 24 Hours endurance event in 1996.
The MG he will be driving tomorrow is the last sports car to come out of Longbridge.
James has two daughters, Kirsty, aged 18, and Fiona, 16, and said he was putting his affairs in order in case things go badly.
He now anticipates that the first of two bouts of chemotherapy will start in October, with the transplant due to be carried out towards the end of November.
A spokesman for Heartlands Hospital refused to comment on individual cases but said: "It is very important for cancer patients to attend their chemotherapy sessions as planned, to achieve the maximum effect from the treatment.
"We also ask that patients give us notice if they are unable to attend their appointment, as we can then help other patients who need treatment."
Medical expert Prof Paul Moss from Birmingham University's Department of Cancer Studies said: "Bone marrow transplants are able to cure many types of leukaemia. However, they do still carry considerable risks."

"The sweetest, most delightful film you will see all year."
Rod Quinn, ABC RADIO
"A wistful comedy cleverly built on a chain of happy coincidences… Watching them gradually reveal their nature to the benefit of all players is one of the film's major pleasures. It's funny, it's melancholy and it's sometimes both at once. Much of what makes it work is in the playing. Lvovsky is full of the spirit of mischief – in a benign sense – and the fun in Khojandi's performance springs from his reading of Vincent's character. Isaaaz, too, has no difficulty finding the pathos in Aude's shambolic way of life. They all make terrific company."
Sandra Hall, SUN-HERALD/THE SUNDAY AGE
"Intriguing and tantalising. The film quickly exerts a grip on you."
David Stratton, THE AUSTRALIAN
"One of the more charming and surprising French films of the year. The casting is impeccable, the sense of humanity strong, and Rappeneau never pushes too hard, in terms of comedy or pathos. Manipulating the point of view is a clever device. It freshens the story, by breaking from linear narrative. The view becomes wide as well as long, with pleasing results."
Paul Byrnes, THE SYDNEY MORNING HERALD
"A joy! Fresh and engaging. A feel-good film which combines humour and eccentric touches with surges of genuine emotion. Light and life-affirming."
Boyd van Hoeij, THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
"This year's Amelie. Fresh and really fun. Surrender to its charm and humanity"
Julien Wood, FILMINK
"A small jewel of tenderness, emotion and intelligence. Really clever and skillfully led from start to finish, to its great outcome, Rosalie Blum takes you in its arms in a kind of melancholy sweetness tinged with a touch of humour and emotion. Go discover this beautiful film in theatres."
Jean-Christian Hay, GALA
"Poignant, original, full of surprises, Julien Rappeneau's debut film is reminiscent of Amelie in his original way to re-enchant the everyday, finding the extraordinary in its ordinary, realistic characters. The performers are all wonderful."
Valérie Beck, FEMME ACTUELLE
"A feel good movie that invites happiness. Quite simply, it exudes charm and it would be crazy to miss out."
Laurent Dijan, STUDIO CINÉ LIVE
The biggest hit in the 27-year history of the Alliance Française French Film Festival, Julien Rappeneau's enchanting directorial debut ROSALIE BLUM is a witty and ingeniously crafted comedy about a random encounter that has unexpected and life-changing consequences.
Thirty-something Vincent Machot (indelibly played by Kyan Khojandi) is a hairdresser, like his father before him. Life rotates around work, his overbearing mother who lives in the apartment upstairs, and a womanising cousin constantly trying to set him up. But one morning Vincent experiences a powerful déjà-vu when he meets the gaze of a grocery store clerk, Rosalie Blum (the fabulous Noémie Lvovsky). Intrigued by this mysterious woman, he begins a search to uncover the truth behind their connection…
To reveal more would only spoil the surprises of Rappeneau's impeccably directed and performed tale, other than to say that a series of coincidences – both hilarious and moving – memorably brings together a group of lost souls in a manner reminiscent of Claude Berri's wonderful Hunting and Gathering.
Indeed, with its themes of the importance of altruism, forgiveness and the value of compassion, ROSALIE BLUM delivers an ever-timely reminder of the best that French cinema has to offer. It's a joy to watch.

TO: Employee-News
FROM: Dr. Melik Peter Khoury
DATE: May 15, 2018
SUBJECT: May 11 Board Meeting
ATTACHMENTS: None
Unity College Community,
What an amazing time at Unity College! Beautiful weather for Commencement and the last week of school. Thanks to everyone who put so much into the Student Conference, finals week, student activities, Commencement, this week's professional development sessions, and everything else you did as a community to finish the year strong in service to our students and our mission.
With all the activity, you may not even know that we had a Board of Trustees meeting held here on campus on Friday. Thanks to Kathleen Dunckel for sharing her report with faculty; I'm writing to add some highlights for folks who don't get the faculty emails.
The day started off with David Maxwell, President Emeritus from Drake University and representative of the Association of Governing Boards. He was here on behalf of AGB to present the board with the Nason Award which "recognizes and honors boards who are exemplars of innovation, creativity, and exceptional leadership." Among other things, David shared that "The scope of change that Unity College undertook is truly impressive and unusual," and that "We commend you for unflinchingly reimagining Unity."
After that, and until dinner at the Unity House, it was pretty much all work – except for a nice break to hear student presentations from some of this semester's Student Conference winners including Joseph Cyr; Mark Moody; Jacob Beaudette, Dakota Quenneville, and Scott Geissler: and Laurel Sullivan. Our board always loves engaging with students.
As for work, the board approved both undergraduate and graduate students, and took action on some other important items. A presentation by outgoing Chief Student Success Officer, Sarah Cunningham, didn't require action, but did require some deep thinking. Sarah presented her thoughts on the implications of the ongoing F2Yproject on our work and lives at Unity College.
After a presentation on the strategic plan status – actually, the very one you all saw today – the board endorsed a motion "To enthusiastically approve the successful stewardship of Building a Beacon: The Unity College Strategic Plan 2014-2019; and, based on information from the Deep Dive and on the current higher education landscape, to ask the Unity College President to prepare an approach, process, and timeline for Board consideration to establish a new strategic plan that builds on the current trajectory for Unity College that is mission-driven and that ensures long-term financial viability."
Other action included a motion to add a new board member, Mr. Michael Fortier of Portland, Maine. Michael has an interesting history. Having grown up in Winslow, Maine, he lived abroad as a director for J.P. Morgan and now has opened Venn + Maker in Portland. "We are looking to unite the young group of entrepreneurs moving to Maine with local makers," said Fortier in a 2016 Bangor Daily News article. Lucky for us, Michael shares our sustainability and entrepreneurship values and has agreed to join the board.
Also, as I mentioned at professional development, as we moved forward on acquisition of the property at 54 York in Portland Maine as a signature educational restoration project as part of general concept approval of Strategic Investment 3. Other elements of the investment initiative include human, technology, and operational buildout in support of the enterprise model for Unity College (As I mentioned in my presentation today, we will discuss more in the summer and the fall. In connection with support for this Strategic Investment 3, the board and I agreed that I commitment to stay on as Unity College President until at least 2025 in order to see the project through to its conclusion. I proudly agreed.
Finally, the board continued the innovative approach that garnered the Nason Award with a proposal reimagine the structure, approach, and meetings of the board to make it more able to respond to the changing times in higher education. A full proposal will be considered at an upcoming board meeting.
As always, my time with the board and my time with you all during our season of celebration and reflection has once again left me one proud and humble president. Thank you for your continuing support. I promise you, as I promised the board on Friday, and our graduates on Saturday: That I will not rest until this important college, and its mission, has earned the place it deserves and has secured its future for good.
So I leave you with the words I sent to the faculty, student and staff who were with me at the Board Meeting: As I reflected on a long day today, I want to thank you for your time, your good work, and your contributions; Our industry is truly in uncharted waters, and to have you all willing to roll up your sleeves and engage in earnest, is the main reason I agreed to commit to staying! I love this college, I love the students, and we owe it to them, the town of Unity, and our environmental mission, to transform this college so that it can stand the test of time.
See you tomorrow,
In Unity!
Dr. Melik Peter Khoury

The Fear Gauge Is Saying Maybe We Haven't Hit Bottom Yet
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
Despite the market selloff in October, investors weren't as bearish as they were in February, as suggested by the CBOE Volatility Index, or VIX.
The VIX is an indicator of the market's 30-day forward-looking volatility derived from the price inputs of the S&P 500 index options. It's widely used by the financial community to measure future market risk and investors' sentiments.
During the February selloff when the S&P 500 dropped over 10% within two weeks, VIX reached to a high of 37. In October, however, although the S&P 500 lost a similar 9.7%, VIX only rose to a tepid 25. "There was virtually no panic." writes Jim Carney, founder of Parplus Partners, in a note on Thursday.
"In most sell-offs it's easy to look back and see from the VIX when the market threw in the towel and capitulated," explains Carney. The "fear gauge," as the VIX is also known, isn't now giving as a clear a signal as it has in the past, possibly due to investors' increased volatility tolerance after the February correction. Or, "we haven't hit the bottom yet," he writes.
The dispersion of single-stock volatility last month, however, offered some good trading opportunities. "There were tremendous moves in some of the stocks and sectors compared to the overall market." writes Carney. While some tech and communication stocks, such as Amazon.com (AMZN), Facebook (FB), Netflix (NFLx), General Electric (GE), Boeing (BA) and chip makers, have experienced wild swings, consumer staples performed very well.
To Carney, this marks the return to a healthy market as some stocks come back to a more reasonable price level: "After the malaise in volatility the last couple of years, it finally looks like market sectors with frothy valuations are set to have some reasonable moves in the coming months."
He expects the market to maintain a two-tier movement, with the pricier sectors experiencing higher volatility, and the broader and more-reasonably priced sectors remain relatively calm.
