Base and Daily Meter Size Charges
Base Charges
The base charge covers the cost of reading and inspecting meters, servicing customer accounts, and billing.
FY 2020-2021 base charge: Base charges are set yearly. See below for per day rates.
Quarterly (90 day) billed account is $50.75 prorated for the actual number of days billed at $0.5639 per day.
Bi-monthly (60 day) billed account is $50.75 prorated for the actual number of days billed at $0.8458 per day.
Monthly (30 day) billed account is $50.75 prorated for the actual number of days billed at $1.6917 per day.
Residential customers have meters that are read every quarter. For customers using monthly statements, the base charge is divided into each monthly bill by one-third. Even if no water is used at a property, the Water Bureau still maintains the water service and will continue billing the base charge.
For more information on reading your bill, see the guide "How to Read your Sewer, Stormwater, and Water Bill".
Meter Size Daily Charges
Fire protection services, combination domestic and fire protection services, and services equipped with backflow or check metering devices located in city-owned vaults are billed a daily charge based on meter size.
Meter sizes and the corresponding daily charges are listed below.
|Meter Size
|Daily Charge for
Fiscal Year
(7/1/2020 through 6/30/2021)
|5/8" and 3/4
|1 ¼" and 1 ½"
|3" and greater
How to Stop All Water Charges
To stop all water charges, the water service (the water meter and service line to the water main in the street) must be permanently removed and disconnected from the main.
The base charge to remove a 2" or smaller water service starts at $4,593.00.
Contact Water Development Services at 503-823-7368 to determine the cost of removal for a specific location.
Please note that permanent removal of a water service may decrease the value of your property, as it would be necessary to pay current installation fees and potentially additional system development charges to add a new service in the future.

After three years away, Coach Paul Winkeler has made a triumphant return to the Rockhurst Swim and Dive program. Winkeler has established a name for himself as a Missouri swim coach. Between 2004-2015 the Swim and Dive team earned 11 consecutive state championships. Winkeler sat down with The Prep News to share some thoughts about returning to the Swim and Dive program.
Q: "You were offered the opportunity to come back was there any hesitation towards coming back?"
A: Winkeler : "Not at all. My children are now older and I'm more involved in all their activities, so it's just simply a matter of my wife and I figuring out how we're going to balance everything. But no, this program is something that I was fortunate enough to be a part of when it was built into what it is today, so it's something very very special to me"
Q: "After returning, has there been any second guessing?
A: Winkeler: "Oh absolutely not. Oh heavens no. No not all."
Q: "From what you've seen so far, has team dynamic changed at all?"
A: Winkeler: "No. In fact, that's been one of the wonderful parts of coming back is seeing how close knit everybody still is. The team has changed in some ways, but you would expect that because there are different people involved in the program. But one thing that has not changed is the team chemistry and it is a very tight knit team."
Q: "Has it been difficult to meet 35 new swimmers and get to know them in and out of the water?"
A: Winkeler: "It's actually been a joy. It has been a challenge, but it's also been a joy. It's been fun. I've enjoyed meeting everyone and getting to know everybody a lot better, but at the same time, you know, I knew everything about every kid so it is a little daunting to walk on the pool deck and not really know anymore."
Q: "What makes a team that wins 11 state championships?"
A: Winkeler: "Love, passion, desire to accomplish something that is bigger than yourself, and determination to accomplish your goals."
Q: "What do you want the distinguishing factor to be between a Rockhurst swimmer and another school's swimmer?"
A: Winkeler: "I think a Rockhurst athlete in this program, swimmer or diver, needs to understand and fully embody that this is not about them, and it's more than just about swimming and diving. This is about the team, it's about being a man for others to those that you train with on a daily basis, and that it is a lifelong commitment in a program, and that you're apart of this program forever. But it's also about your formation as a young man in our community, as a Christian, and as a somebody that our world should be able to count on someday."

NEWS: Pre-filed Bill Seeks to End High Cost Legislator Hotel, Dining, and Special Session Perks
Anchorage – Today, three members of the Alaska House of Representatives announced that they have pre-filed legislation to stop expensive charges by some legislators for hotels and meals. The bill also bans legislators from claiming per diem payments, which can exceed $200 per day, when Special Sessions are held in their home towns with no actual hotel costs. Last summer, some legislators and staff billed the state over $400 and $500 per night (including taxes) for hotel rooms in Seattle to attend the annual summit of the National Conference of State Legislatures. This occurred as the state is facing a more than $3 billion budget shortfall.Read More →

Fight Duchenne Foundation
Fight Duchenne Foundation
About Us
The Fight Duchenne Foundation (FDF) was established out of the desire to see tangible services and benefits given to the families of Australians affected by Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).
There are a number of different organisations that focus on the raising of money to find a cure for Duchenne. The FDF however is focused on providing assistance to all Duchenne children, their siblings and families whilst in the fight against time with DMD.
All families living with DMD in Australia have a limited time that is already filled with stress and worry. It is the goal of FDF to make sure that the lives of the children and their families are spent together and as worry free as possible by allocating funds and services to the Duchenne Community where required.
The Board members of the FDF have collectively raised close to $2 million through the charity cycle ride known as The Tour Duchenne. Their passion and vision is the driving force of the FDF and will help it grow and raise money for the Duchenne community.

Valentine's Day is a holiday often celebrated with flowers, chocolate and red wine. No matter what stage of life you are in, this holiday is all about connecting with those we love, whether a partner, family member, friend or pet. As we look to celebrate love, the heart has become analogous with the expression and feeling of love. It dates back to the very earliest experiments in anatomy in Egypt in the second century BC. As nerves were followed around the body, the clear majority seemed to lead to the solar plexus in the chest. This gave rise to the theory that the heart was the seat of emotion and reason. I believe that these ancient observations were correct. The heart – whether metaphorical or literal – must be in a place of wholeness to be able to truly connect with another human (or yourself).
Many of my female clients are shocked to learn that in the United States, heart disease kills more women than anything else – even more than cancer. Heart disease is a metabolic disorder – in the same family as obesity, stroke, fatty liver and cardiovascular dysfunction. It can be invisible – a woman can be trim and still have suboptimal heart function. While many doctors routinely screen men for this condition, women are often overlooked. Another important distinction is that heart disease manifests differently in men and women. For example, signs of a heart attack vary significantly between genders – many women don't know what to look for in order to get timely help. The good news is that here in the United States, anyone's chances of surviving a heart attack are high – assuming medical care is administered in a timely manner.
So as women, what do we need to do to keep our heart healthy? For me, the answer is multi-dimensional – it involves the physical and the emotional.
The Physical – this dimension is what most of us think about when I mention heart health. And I think it's the easiest to get right. We all know what to do.
- Eat a clean, Wildatarian® diet. Cut out hidden sugars in processed foods. Avoid ingredients you don't understand. Eat whole food – full of nutrients your heart needs and avoid anything boxed, bagged or packaged.
- Move. Notice that I didn't say exercise. Move your body – you don't have to run a marathon or take a spin class. Walk. Do yoga. Clean your home. Find physical activities that you love – those that get you off the couch. Try to raise your heart rate. If you love exercise – great; it can be a good way to detox and clear your thoughts. It's what I do, and it has become an important part of who I am.
- Sleep. This is when the body repairs itself and does metabolic cleanup. Skimping on sleep can leave metabolic wastes in the body, and these, in turn, can collect in tissues and blood vessels causing problems.
- Get tested. Modern medicine offers easy ways to look at what's flowing in our blood vessels and how likely it is to cause a future problem. Don't settle for a standard cholesterol test or fall for simplified concepts like "good and bad cholesterol". It's more complicated than that. Demand detailed particle profile and inflammation testing available through all standard labs. This is the only way to tell what your cholesterol is doing and assess your personal risk. Ask for a Cardiac Calcium scan – a non-invasive, quick screen for coronary calcifications. Have a carotid IMT test to assess stroke risk. Do these yearly – be proactive. Check your blood pressure at home to make sure it stays within healthy levels.
The Emotional – this dimension is less obvious. But it's there. What you think and feel has a direct effect on the body, including the heart. We know that the thoughts we think can directly increase or decrease inflammation. Studies have clearly linked negative physical manifestations to emotions such as anger and fear. Smiling has the opposite effect – it improves immune function and lowers the toxic body burden. Stress, the kind that has become part and parcel of the Standard American Lifestyle, disrupts basic body functions and has a direct negative correlation with heart health. It can increase blood pressure, inflaming blood vessels and causing plaque buildup. It also unleashes a hormone storm in the body – disrupting all metabolic processes.
Improving your emotional state is as important as tending to the physical body – your heart can not be healthy without it. Getting to your optimal emotional health takes daily practice of stopping or interrupting those factors, emotions and thoughts that can affect us negatively. Beautifully, many avenues exist to help us with this journey. Engage in a meaningful spiritual practice – religious or otherwise. Be connected to a supportive community – however you define it. Engage with life by finding meaningful ways to live. Cultivate hobbies that help you feel joy. Get help – through counseling, support groups, neurofeedback, energy healing and other modalities. Strive to live a mindful life – be in the present and stop focusing on the past or the future. Teach yourself to respond properly to whatever life brings. Build resilience. Give up the illusion of control – the only thing you can truly control is yourself.
So this Valentine's day, along with the flowers, chocolate and wine, look to the dimensions of your heart and its health. Whether in the physical or emotional realm, take the steps you need to have a healthy heart. And of course, The Wildatarian Diet: Living as Nature Intended is an amazing first step to self-love and improving and maintaining heart health.
If you want to take it a step further, and gain insight on your heart health, I recommend a program called HeartMath that will do all the tracking right to your phone!
If you choose to indulge in some heart-healthy dark chocolate this Valentine's Day, Hu Kitchen brand is a favorite in my office. Grab yours here! If wine is more your taste, I always recommend Dry Farm Wines which are sulfate, sugar and gluten free!
To the Tru of You™,

Kambo Magic
I offer kambo ceremonies on Saturdays in North London.
Join me to work with the sacred frog secretion and meet like-minded people.
Contact me for details for one 2 one sessions, couples and group kambo in the comfort of your home.
'Frog Secretion of the Amazon'
Kambo is an ancient tribal remedy used in the Amazon to heal from snake bites, malaria, enhance fertility in women and boost the stamina and endurance of men for hunting.
It's finding popularity in the West as a deep cleanse; to support the body through chronic illness; for mental clarity and focus and to strengthen the immune system
Working with the frog takes commitment to oneself and to the process. Kambo is an holistic detox and using it on a regular basis can deepen your detox and strengthen your immune system.
The Matses refer to it as magical and mystical because it works on all levels, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual, clearing blocks and panema - negative thinking.
Rapé (hapay)
Rapé, pronounced hapay or rapay, is a medicinal snuff from the Amazon. It's used to connect tribes to the power of the god of creation and to the spirits of the forest.
Sananga is a sacred eye drop from the Amazon Rainforest. Shamans believe it works on an energetic level and your intent when taking the sananga is as powerful as the properties it contains.
Cath Walker
Kambo Practitioner
Cath has worked with the frog secretion since 2016. She is an Advanced Kambo Practitioner with the IAKP, trained to administer kambo and work with you over a short to long period of time depending on your goals.
Having trained with the Sacred Trust in ceremonial work and shamanic practices in 2005, she understands and honours the importance of creating a sacred and safe space.
Cath specialises in detoxification, using food as a medicine to prevent sickness and kambo to cleanse and heal mind and body. Together they form a strong ally to ward off disease, strengthen the body and boost the immune system.

Teeth begin developing before a baby is born. Good nutrition during pregnancy is important in the development of the baby's teeth.
Even though they are temporary, your child's baby teeth are still susceptible to cavities. Tooth decay in little ones is often referred to as Baby Bottle Tooth Decay.
Children need strong, healthy teeth to chew their food, speak, and have a good-looking smile. Their first teeth also help make sure their adult teeth come in correctly. It's important to start infants off with good oral care to help protect their teeth for decades to come.
Baby Bottle Tooth Decay most often occurs in the upper front teeth, but other teeth may also be affected.
There are many factors which can cause tooth decay in your baby's teeth. Here are a few:
The good news is that decay is preventable.
When your child's first tooth appears, talk to your dentist about scheduling the first dental visit. Treat the first dental visit as you would a well-baby checkup with the child's physician. Remember: starting early is the key to a lifetime of good dental health.

WoW CLASSIC News - It Will Begin with Patch 1.12, Drums of War
For you who have been so patiently waiting news of World of Warcraft Classic, we have it today! We now know that when Classic launches, it will start with v1.12 "Drums of War". Keep in mind that Classic is not a progression server, so 1.12 is both the start and the "finish".
From there, the team has started discussing the "second prototype":
Speaking of engineering, World of Warcraft is a very data-driven game, which means the basic code is flexible and the specific way it behaves is controlled by information contained in databases. Things like quests, monsters, items, and the rules for how these all interact are defined by the designers and artists in data.
So we asked ourselves, would it still be possible to deliver an authentic classic experience if we took our modern code, with all its back-end improvements and changes, and used it to process the Patch 1.12 game data? While that might seem counterintuitive, this would inherently include classic systems like skill ranks, old quests and terrain, talents, and so on, while later features like Transmog and Achievements would effectively not exist because they were entirely absent from the data. After weeks of R&D, experimentation, and prototyping, we were confident we could deliver the classic WoW content and gameplay without sacrificing the literally millions of hours put in to back-end development over the past 13 years.
While our initial effort helped us determine the experience we wanted to provide, this second prototype really defined how we'd get there. Starting from a modern architecture—with all its security and stability changes—means the team's efforts can be focused on pursuing an authentic classic experience. Any differences in behavior between our development builds and the patch 1.12 reference can be systematically cataloged and corrected, while still operating from a foundation that's stable and secure.
And for those who love the technical side of things, the post goes on with a discussion of modern engineering and how it applies to the "new" Classic.
Head to the World of Warcraft site to learn more.

Best words I could ever hear from a friend. It makes sense, now, why I talk about my home all the time, why I can't get it out of my head or my heart or my soul, why I swear that place and its people shaped me, why it's the biggest and greatest part of my story and my past. I have said for so long that *I* only make sense in light of the place and people who raised me, and the Jesus who saved and continues to save me.
Some dear Texas friends of mine visited our tiny mountain village not too long ago. Mom and Dad picked them up from the airport and drove them down the winding desert roads to our little house in town.
One morning, they woke up and followed the directions I sent them to my favorite hike, a few miles out of town and way up in the mountains. It's the hike I take every time I'm home, with my dear childhood friend Hayley. We always have a year or more of catching-up to do on our way to the top, and we usually continue on off-trail to the base of the mountain, a few miles in the distance. No matter the weather, we take our clothes off and jump in the lake after our descent.
And then, maybe ten years ago now, they built a movie theater there among the trees. Four screens. I went on a lot of dates in that little movie-barn. Spent a lot of time there with friends. Before we could drive, someone's mom or dad would drop us all off and pick us all up, out front. And when Austin turned 16 before the rest of us, he became our honorary chauffeur.
I wanted them to see the forge where I learned to change my oil and rotate my tires with my Hayden-friend who gave me my very first Carhart jacket. The forge where I spent many nights my senior year, hammering out a damascus steel rosette for the guitar I spent the year building. It was in the parking lot of that forge, on a blizzardy and icy night, where Hayden taught me to pull my E-break and spin cookies. He's the same friend who'd pick me up in his truck at sunrise on summer mornings and say "hop in–I've got coffee." We'd bounce down old dirt roads, splashing the burning black stuff all over his cloth seats, listening to old-time country music, and I'd watch him shoe horses.
They didn't have time to swing by The Hangar, where I spent every Wednesday night learning about Jesus from Dan Keels, or Sisters Community Church, where I was raised by The Village. They didn't see the elementary school fields, where Dad took Jake and I to fly kites and launch rockets, or The Pumphouse, where I bought my first pack of wood-tipped cigars for myself and my girlfriends one night when we needed them for our bonfire around the lake. They didn't make it up to Hoodoo, where I learned to ski and spent every winter skiing and playing cards in the lodge for the majority of my life, and they didn't see Billy Chinook, where I spent every summer wakeboarding and water skiing.
They didn't walk on the dock at Suttle Lake–which I've been jumping off since I was six years old, and they didn't have time to run out to the Metolius to drink from its crystal waters like I have so many times.
They didn't know that Eagle Rock held me as a 6 year-old girl when I was brand new to the town and about to start first grade, and that it's the first place I ran to when I arrived "home" fourteen years later after having left to see the world and start college in a state 2,000 miles away. They didn't get to see my initials carved deep in the oak tree at the top.
They got to see the mountains that greeted me every morning for 15 years–the mountains where I first learned to backpack in the snow, with IEE friends and leaders.
I've decided that I flew far, and wide, for long enough. I've decided that the rest of the world has its beauty, and living in new countries and states is great, but there is truly no place like Sisters, Oregon.
I've decided, Lord willing, to go Home–to the mountains, to my family, and to the little town that has made a little Sisters-shaped hole in my heart.

Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is the major provider of hospital services to the population of North and mid Hampshire and surrounding areas. The hospitals in Basingstoke and Winchester provide a comprehensive range of acute services as well as being a tertiary referral centre for colorectal, liver, peritoneal carcinomatosis, haemophilia and pseudomyxoma surgery.
Services are provided across Basingstoke, Winchester and Andover sites. There are advanced plans for a new Critical Treatment Hospital to be built in central Hampshire within 3 years. This would be the site of the single large level 2/3 critical care unit for the Trust. This new central hospital would also be the site of the single units for medically supported obstetrics, neonates, all in-patient paediatrics and surgical emergencies.
The Trust covers a population of 600,000 incorporating Basingstoke & North Hampshire Hospitals (BNHH), Royal Hampshire County Hospital (RHCH) in Winchester, Andover War Memorial Hospital (AWMH) and community hospitals. We provide one hospital service across multiple localities, delivering services as close as possible to the patient. BNHH and RHCH are 23 miles apart, situated in the middle of the M3 corridor, with excellent transport links to London and the south coast.
Our values help us in what we do and how we do it. It is important that you understand and use these values throughout your employment with the Trust to define and develop our culture.
The post holder will be:-
- Compassionate, caring about our patients.
- Accountable and responsible, always looking to improve.
- Respectful for all and show integrity in everything.
- Encouraging and challenging each other to always do our best.
Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital (BNHH)
The BNHH was built in the early 1970s as a district general hospital. Most of its services are provided within two inter-connected buildings. A diagnosis and treatment centre (DTC) opened in February 2005, has recently been expanded to house four operating theatres, three endoscopy rooms and breast diagnostic facilities.
The Basingstoke & North Hampshire NHS Foundation Trust came into being on the 1st December 2006. Psychiatric services are provided at the adjacent Parklands Hospital, which is managed by the Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust. There is close liaison with the neighbouring St Michael's Hospice, for patients in need of palliative care.
Both BNHH and RHCH are closely linked with the Southampton University Medical School. There is a regular programme of lectures at the postgraduate medical centre, in addition to excellent library facilities, housed within a major multi-disciplinary education centre on the BNHH site – the "Ark".
Royal Hampshire County Hospital (RHCH), Winchester
The RHCH has been in existence for over 150 years. The main Nightingale building dating back to 1886 houses the emergency department, medical imaging unit, the EMAU, surgical, medical and paediatric wards, five operating theatres and the intensive care unit. Florence Portal House houses the women's health services (gynaecology, obstetrics and breast surgery) with two obstetric theatres, and two other operating theatres. The five-storey Burrell Wing was opened in November 2005. The top floor houses the short stay surgery unit with three operating theatres and the endoscopy service. The outpatient services were relocated to the ground floor in January 2013.
Andover War Memorial Hospital
This is part of the Trust with a number of GP and elderly care beds. There is a day surgery unit with plans for expansion to include a general anaesthetic service. Currently local and regional anaesthetic lists for eye, orthopaedics and general surgery lists are serviced by anaesthetists from Winchester.
Andover War Memorial Hospital (AWMH) provides community and hospital services including a minor injuries unit, outpatient clinics, diagnostic imaging, day surgery, rehabilitation and maternity services. It is also home to the Countess of Brecknock Hospice.

Oakland, Berkeley, And East Bay News, Events, Restaurants, Music, & Arts
What's happening around the Bay in music? Lots! Let's recap, shall we?
1. New Club Night in Oakland: When it comes to nightlife, Oakland is definitely on the come-up. But Starr Piwowarski says the city still lacks a "great dance night." Which is why she helped start a new club night in Oakland called "Club Drama."
Held at the Uptown on the last Thursday of the month, the event features "familiar indie dance tracks all while offering a large selection of electro and dance remixes to really give you that dance-club feeling that you can't find unless you make your way across the bridge," wrote Piwowarski in an e-mail. Sample artists include Marina and the Diamonds, The Gossip, Dragonette, Martin Solveig, Ke$ha, Ladytron, The Presets, Amanda Blank, Crystal Castles, MSTRKRFT, Goldfrapp, Simian Mobile Disco, Peaches, and more.

4. Another hit to local radio: Local/community radio fans are still reeling from the loss of KUSF from the airwaves (though it can be heard online here), and now comes word that Stanford radio station KZSU (sister station to KUSF) has launched a campaign to protect its signal. In a press release today, the station said the proposal to move KUSF-FM's 90.3 broadcast transmitter out of San Francisco and to Mount Beacon in Marin County would be at a much higher elevation and thus could disrupt KZSU's signals through parts of the East Bay and the northern SF Peninsula. Supporters of KZSU are asked to send letters by April 15th to: KZSU Business - Attn: Save KZSU, P.O. Box 20190, Stanford, CA 94309.

This Sunday, April 10, Cafe du Nord will host a local Americana Showcase and benefit. Confirmed performers include Tippy Canoe, Kit & The Branded Men, Toshio Hirano, Misisipi Mike, Belle Monroe & Her Brewglass Boys, 77 El Deora, Little Anne and the B-Star Wranglers, and The Chazz Cats. Tickets are on a sliding scale: $10-$15.
On Thursday, April 17, Japan-based vocalist Charito will perform a benefit, with the Eddie Ramirez Band, at the Piedmont Piano Club (1728 San Pablo Ave.) in Oakland's Uptown district. Tickets are $30.
And though they're no longer local, WHY? is having a charity auction featuring rare test pressings, original lyrics, album notes, and more. According to the band, "the most coveted item on the list is the Golden Ticket #4, where the highest bidder will have their own personal theme song composed and recorded by WHY?" Here's a video of Yoni Wolf explaining the auction amongst the "suburban wilderness" of Mason, Ohio. Looks like Oakland. Not...
6. In venue news, Karibbean City has reopened under new ownership as the "New Karibbean City" (1408 Webster St., Oakland). They've got DJs and live performances.
Also… Era Art Bar and Lounge celebrates its one-year anniversary tomorrow night. There'll be DJs and stuff.
7. In local band news, Thao & Mirah are releasing a debut album on April 26 via Kill Rock Stars and embarking on tour. Catch them at the New Parish on May 3.
Also, local gypsy-rock band Diego's Umbrella (featuring occasional EBX contributor Jake Wood) is seeking funds for a new van, after theirs was totaled in a car accident in Tahoe last November. You could win a bike tour with Wood. Help 'em out here.
8. What other sites are talking about: Steven T. Jones at the Guardian ponders whether Burning Man, which will form as a nonprofit next month, is selling out.
The Mercury News interviews Duran Duran, who are trying their damndest to pretend like it's still 1981. They play on April 16 at the Fillmore.
The Bay Bridged implore us to drive to UC Davis on May 14 for the "anti-festival festival" called Operation: Restore Maximum Freedom, featuring performances by Sacramento musicians like Zach Hill, Appetite, Violet Tremors, Ellie Fortune, and others. It's hosted by Sacto community radio station KDVS.
Or not talking about: The ambitious, relatively new local music site One Night Music, which paired hi-def video with intimate performances and hipster artwork, is, not so surprisingly, dead. … Unfortunately living up to its name, Going.com is going away as of May 1, 2011. In an email, the company said the move was part of "AOL's refocusing" (AOL bought the startup two years ago). The site, mobile site, and apps will also go away. Event listings will migrate to Patch's hyper-local sites.

Earlier this month, legislators from across the aisle came together to introduce the Electric Drive Vehicle Deployment Act ̶ legislation designed to provide communities with the funds needed to make their cities EV-ready.
The bill authorizes the U.S. Secretary of Energy to award up to $300 million to each of 10 different deployment communities around the country ($3 billion total) to encourage early adoption of electric cars. The legislation also provides assistance for the installation of charging infrastructure, supports the manufacturing of electric vehicle components and encourages utilities to plan for widespread use of electric drive vehicles. These communities will then serve as domestic hubs for EV manufacturing and deployment, as well as testing grounds for best practices. The 10 communities will be selected through an application process.
The Electric Drive Vehicle Deployment Act also guarantees these consumer benefits:
- Incentives to purchase electric drive vehicles, such as an additional $2,000 incentive to the first 50,000 people within each hub who buy electric drive vehicles.
- Extends federal tax credits for the purchase and installation of electric vehicle charging equipment for individuals (up to $2,000) or businesses (up to $50,000 for multiple equipment purchases).
During our pilot trainings this spring, we provided training to firefighters in New York, Chicago, Austin, Phoenix, Dallas and more. At each stop, we were impressed with the enthusiasm from not only the first responders but also local residents we met with.
This enthusiasm and the continued commitment from the Administration and the Department of Energy will only help the EV market continue to grow.

Welcome to the New Year college basketball fans! With the turning of the calendar, we also close the page on non-conference play as most leagues have begun league play or will do so in the next couple of days. This is where the season really starts for many teams and the next couple of weeks will go a long way into deciding which teams we will see dancing come March. For today's pick, we will take a look at the game between the Seton Hall Pirates and the Xavier Musketeers in a Big East Battle.
The Xavier Musketeers host the Seton Hall Pirates tonight in a game between two surprising teams. The Musketeers are surprising people in a bad way so far this season as through non-conference play, they are just 9-5. This comes just one year after they were a one seed in the NCAA tournament. The Musketeers have certainly underwhelmed to start the season, but the Big East is as wide open as I can ever remember it, so don't be shocked to see Xavier compete for the Big East regular-season title.
The Pirates are surprising people in a good way as they have jumped out to a hot 10-3 start, with wins over Miami, Kentucky, Maryland, and St. John's. If they are able to find a way to knock off Xavier on the road tonight, they would likely find themselves ranked in the top twenty-five nationally as they currently find themselves in the also receiving votes category, lurking just outside the rankings. The Musketeers are -4-point home favorites. The game total over-under is set at 143.5-points. Tipoff is scheduled for 3:30 PM PST from the Cintas Center in Cincinnati.
If this game were scheduled any time in the last, oh say a decade or so, it would be a mismatch. Seton Hall had fallen on hard times in the early 2000s but under head coach Kevin Willard have made the NCAA tournament the last three seasons. This year they looked poised to break through for a deep run in the tournament, as they are playing very good basketball.
The Pirates three losses on the season are all to teams that will likely end up playing in March. Losses to Louisville, Nebraska, and Saint Louis are all somewhat forgivable, with the Saint Louis loss being the only one looking a bit suspect. And even then, the Billikens are a solid 9-4. And when you look at the Pirates quality wins, you have to like what this team is doing right now.
In their last game, the Pirates handed St. John's their first loss on the season as the Red Storm had jumped out to a 13-0 start. The game before that? They went into College Park and beat a very solid Maryland Terrapins team, in a true road game, that had been ranked in the top twenty-five. The Pirates also picked up a nice on-conference win again Miami on a neutral floor. These wins were all good resume building ones, but no win this year was bigger than the one they got when they shocked a top ten ranked Kentucky Wildcat team on December 8th.
That win is going to look better and better as Coach Cal has his Wildcats playing better every week. When tournament selection time comes, that win will boost the Pirates resume a ton. The Big East is down this year as right now they have only one team ranked in the top twenty-five, and that is a Marquette team that just lost by twenty points last night. So, when you are looking at who can win this league, the Pirates have to be in the conversation, period.
We all knew that Xavier would be down this year. They had a magical season last year that saw them win the Big East regular-season title, and they were awarded with a one seed in the NCAA tournament. But, they lost most of their best players, including super star Trevon Blueitt, and they lost their head coach, Chris Mack. It was rebuilding time in Cincinnati for sure.
But most expected the Musketeers to still compete and be a tournament level team despite all their losses. Right now, if the tournament field were announced today, the Musketeers would find themselves on the outside looking in. Xavier has used a very balanced attack this year, six players are averaging nine points or more a game. But they have really struggled against good teams.
You would be hard pressed to call any of the Musketeers nine wins, "good" ones. At this point, their best win of the season is against either Depaul or Ohio. And neither of those teams are currently projected to make the tournament. If the Musketeers want to have any shot at an at-large bid this season, they need to find a way to win at home in league games like this one tonight.
On a neutral floor, I see Seton Hall as the better team. And by a decent margin. They have shown me that they can beat good teams and that they can win on the road. So, a bet on Seton Hall is a bet on the better overall team. But this isn't a neutral floor, this game is at Xavier, a place that has been very tough for opposing teams to win. Their only home loss this season was to a very good Wisconsin team, very early on.
Home much is a home floor worth? We will find out tonight in this one. This game opened up at Xavier -4.5 and has been sliding ever since. It stands at -4-points now, and I even see some -3.5's floating around. So, if you like a play on Seton Hall, like many of the early betting sharps do, make your play now before the line moves even further. I wouldn't at all be shocked if Seton Hall wins this game outright. But I won't pass up on the +4-points just in case this game closes out closer than I think it will. Give me the Seton Hall Pirates and the points tonight from Cincinnati!

Pairing: Jay James/Padge, Matt Tuck, Jay James/Moose
Rating: NC-17
POV: Padge
Warnings: Porn, toy making
Notes: I wanted to make this for 50kinkyways but I couldn't work it in. I blame Jay for mentioning Rammstein in a recent interview which made me think of Rammstein's box set which led to this
"Ok, so we need to come up with an idea for the re-release of the album." Matt spoke pacing slightly in front of us. "So this time we need more then just a dvd, we need something extra. You know, like one of those fancy boxes that... what're they fucking called?" He seemed to be searching for a band's name, but gave up after a few seconds. "Anyway it needs something more. So, ideas!" He clapped his hands together and looked over us.
Moose spoke up first. "We could always include an extra cd, a live one. Or two dvds instead of one."
I shrugged a little and grunted. "I think they might want something else. Maybe a t-shirt or some shit."
"They could have a tee with my idea, just need to add it in."
"I have an idea..." That was Jay, speaking in his usual quiet voice. When all eyes were on him he looked flustered before speaking again. "Well I was thinking we could do something like Rammstein's boxset..."
I couldn't believe we were doing this. This whole thing seemed so fucking ridiculous to me. There were four tubes set up, each one easily big enough for us. "So we do what eactly?"
"You just mix the molding power with water and then stick it in." As he said that Jay made a thrusting motion with his hips which amde his dick sway. "And then you keep still for about a minute before pulling out. Simple."
There was a collective silence as we all looked at the tubes, mentally deciding who'd go first. We were all hard and ready. Jay'd made sure of that by using that talented mouth of his to get us hard and aching as well as to attach rubber cock rings to us.
After a long silence Jay decided to step up. "Ok, I'll go first." He took one of the tubes, pouring the water from one of the jugs into the first tube, stirring it with the powder within. Once he was satisfied it was ready he took the cock ring off, then grasped tube and guided it to his stiff dick. He let out a soft moan as he pushed the tube down until his dick was fully in it. He stayed still, keeping ahold of it as he waited for it to set. When it was done, he eased it off his fat length setting the tube down away from the others.
"Who wants to go next?" Before the others could react I moved forward, taking the second jug and sloshing the water into the next tube. I used the same mixer that Jay used and stared into the tube after I'd swished it around. It looked like a strange white paste, kinda like clay. Curious, I popped off the ring then sank into it. It felt strange, kinda cold and... not as mushy as I expected. I kept a grip on it, holding the tube still as I mentally counted the seconds. I dunno how ay managed to make it look so easy, it was hard for me to keep completely still, but I managed it. It felt strange as the mold hardened around me, stiffening against my dick as the seconds went on. I let go when I felt like it was done, moving it off me and moving to where Jay was.
He'd took his tube and poured the liquid rubber in it, making a test one. With a smile he took mine and filled it with the rubber before putting it next to his to set. His hand reached over to me, his fingers running slowly along my hairy thigh. His fingertips brushed over my balls, making me squirm a little and part my legs. His hand trailed up a little higher so that his digits could wrap around my shaft.
He leaned in close to me as we watched Moose insert his cock. Jay purred and whispered softly, moving his hand slowly. "You know what I'm going to do with the test copies?" I shook my head, biting my lip as he dragged his fist steadily over my dick. "Before every show I'm going to push one into me and wear it for the whole thing." I moaned and bucked into his hand. Little slut.
He shifted slightly, ducking his head down to my crotch. His fingers held me still as his lips parted to take my head. He shifted his body so that he was crouched on the floor between my legs, keeping my dick between his lips as he did. I groaned softly, reaching down and holding onto his hair. I could feel him smirk around me as he took my length down his throat, holding my thigh down with his other hand. "Come on Jay stop fucking teasing..." I grunted out, wanting him to just get on with it.
Moose had fiinished now and was sitting beside me, his hand palming his dick. Jay's hazel eyes darted up to the other man and then he began to move, bobbing his head up and down steadily. He was such a fucking good cock sucker. Actually good was an understatement, they'd probably have to invent a new word for his skills. He had been better when he had that stud in, but there'd been an... incident with that. Shame. I groaned as his lips squeezed around me, his tongue darting over me.
"Yeah that's it." He smiled and moved a little faster, making me moan even more. I felt my dick twitch down his throat, his hand shifting from the base of my dick to cup my balls. His fingers stroked me while he suckled on my length, my head tipping back against the sofa. Lips were on the left side of my neck and I knew instantly that it was Matt. I purred softly, licking my lips a little as I bucked up, but his hand held me down so I couldn't do that again. Couldn't say I blamed him really though, in the early days I almost choked him with my dick. I also seemed to recall that, around then, Moose had fucked his throat too hard and made him throw up. Poor thing.
I grunted loudly, rutting up against his lips feeling something hot and wet hit my thigh. I glanced down and saw that Matt had came. He'd obviously aimed for Jay's face although a fair amount had landed on me. Jay glanced at the sticky fluid, rolled his eyes and then returned his focus to me. Beside me Matt panted, lips now seperated from my neck. "Mmm nothing like watching Jay suck dick to get you off." He kissed my neck briefly, then slumped back in the seat.
I smiled slightly, groaning as I felt myself get close. I could feel it in my balls. I didn't bother warning Jay, knowing that he could take it and more. I bucked up hard against his face, letting out a low grunt as I spilled down his throat. I purred softly to myself as he swallowed my load. "Mmmmm...." I watched through half-lidded eyes as he slipped off me with a soft pop, scooting over to Moose after licking Matt's cum from my thigh.
Moose smiled but reached down and held Jay in place, away from his dick. I watched as Moose kept jerking himself off with his free hand, licking his lips but keeping mostly silent. He, like the rest of us, had perfected stealth wanking so, as such, he was always quiet when he jerked off. He kept moving quickly, stroking and twisting his hand along his length. All Jay could do was extend his tongue and swipe it over Moose's head. It did mean, though that meant his hands were free to touch himself. If I hadn't just cum myself I'd have shifted to get a better view, but I satisfied myself with watching Moose jerk himself, which was still pretty hot.
Moose was moving pretty quickly now so I figured he wouldn't last long. After all he'd seen Jay suck my dick and Matt cum too. He bucked forward and came silently, his load landing all over Jay's pretty face. He did look hot with a cum load over his face. I licked my lips, staring at him as Moose pushed him back with his foot.
Jay easily fell to the floor on his back, his hands still pumping his thick cock, which looked strange without it's piercings in. They'd probably be back in after he came, which I had a feeling would be soon from the way his face looked. Indeed he bucked up soon, making a growly moan as he shot a thick load over his belly. Fuck he looked so hot like that, laying there covered in our cum. He looked like a proper slut..
A few weeks later we got the first copy of the new album. It was in a new, fancy box, large enough to accomodate the four dildos as well as the album, the dvd and lube. Jay's was even complete with piercings in the purple rubber. They all looked quite nice and, when we put them against our own they looked just like the real things apart from the colour.
I hoped the fans would enjoy them as much as we did.

RIP: The Good Knight, Randall Stockton's Speakeasy Is No More
I've always felt good spending my money at Beerland, Rio Rita, The Grackle and Live Oak Barbecue knowing that the money was going to local boy made good Randall Stockton's growing empire.
The empire has now contracted by one.
We enjoyed going to the Good Knight from the get go. It was small and dark and able to evoke a mood from a long since gone past. Quite a nice place to take a date on a chill Winter's eve.
Who knows what the particulars are relevant to the closure?
East Austin is reaching total saturation of new places, all clamoring for your leisure dollar.
Dozens of bars and restaurants are elbowing each other with some offering genuine value and others merely trying to extract a bit of lucre from your pocket with a hall of smoke and mirrors.
With well equipped, empty restaurants in East Austin being extremely rare it will be interesting to see what comes along in the Good Knight's former space.

A cracked windshield is an eyesore and a major inconvenience. It can be caused by a variety of factors, some of which you may notice as they are happening, while others affect your windshield over time:
- Driving on rough surfaces: Driving on unpaved and uneven surfaces is sometimes unavoidable when driving to remote destinations. However, the more you use your vehicle on these types of roads, the more likely it will become for gravel and forest foliage to strike and crack your glass.
- Driving behind loaded vehicles: Getting stuck on the highway behind a construction vehicle loaded with asphalt, gravel, sand, and other materials, especially in windy conditions, can lead to cracks and damage.
- Improper installation: In some cases, vehicles are poorly fitted with windshields, and the glass it is constructed of may be of sub-par quality. Poorly installed windshields can shake, become dislodged, and obtain cracks.
- Forces of Nature: If you don't recall a specific event that caused the crack in your windshield, nature may be to blame. Extreme hot or cold temperatures and relentless sunlight can place stress on your glass and lead it to crack.
With all of their possible causes, cracked windshields are a familiar problem for automobile owners. Because of their ordinary nature, it can be easy to postpone getting it repaired in order to save money or focus your resources and energy on other problem areas your car may have. However, we will discuss 4 reasons why you shouldn't postpone getting your cracked windshield fixed.
1) It Limits Visibility
Have you ever had hanging decorations for your car, like fluffy dice or scented trees? While they serve practical uses and add aesthetic value, they can be distracting and limit your field of vision. Similarly, cracks positioned in just the right spot on your windshield can make driving more difficult. With a cracked windshield, you won't be able to see the road and cars around you as clearly as you should be able to. Keep yourself and fellow drivers safe by getting your it fixed in a timely manner.
2) Having a Crack is Illegal
Driving around with a crack in your windshield, especially a large one, is illegal in a lot of areas and can result in a costly ticket. Instead of paying a hefty fine, spend your money wisely on repairing your windshield, which would eventually need to be repaired anyway.
3) You'll Save Money and Prevent Further Damage
What begins as a small crack can become larger and larger until your entire windshield needs to be replaced. Taking the initiative to get the small crack fixed immediately will let you avoid the cost of a whole new windshield.
Companies like Auto Glass Pro Mississauga take advantage of modern auto glass chip technology to fix cracks and prevent full replacements. Give yourself the best chance at avoiding a full replacement by getting that seemingly tiny crack fixed sooner rather than later!
4) An Intact One is Better for the Rest of Your Car
Believe it or not, a cracked windshield can hurt the rest of your car. In most styles of cars, the roof is supported by the windshield. A compromised windshield means that the roof of your car will be substantially weaker than it would be with a strong and undamaged windshield. In the event of an accident, a cracked windshield may not be able to fully support your car's roof, which can have fatal consequences for you and your passengers.
Hopefully, these 4 reasons have educated you and given you the motivation to get your cracked windshield repaired as soon as possible!

What are all these civil rights and advocacy groups thinking?
Nineteen organizations, including the American Civil Liberties Union and the United Negro College Fund, just issued a joint statement (see text and full list of signatories below) about what they would like to see in a newly written No Child Left Behind law, which is the top priority of Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.), the new chairman of the Senate education committee. And in their statement, they make some faulty assumptions about teaching and learning that have been the basis of flawed education reforms in the past.
The issuing of the statement was done in concert with the Obama administration, which has for six years pushed high-stakes standardized testing as a central education priority and has continued to defend it in the face of a burgeoning national anti-testing movement that includes teachers, parents, principals, superintendents, students and other advocates.
Making standardized test scores a key metric for evaluating students, educators, schools and districts has resulted in a flood of new tests given to students that eat up significant portions of the school year in test prep and test-taking, a narrowing of the curriculum to emphasize the subjects being tested (English Language Arts and math) and an enormous anxiety among students and teachers that harms the teaching and learning process.
But the administration continues to push the idea that students must be tested annually from grades three through eight and once in high school in order to achieve "equity" for all students. In fact, Education Secretary Arne Duncan made the case in a speech on Monday, and Sen. Patty Murray (Wash.), the key Democrat on the Senate education committee, is doing the same thing Tuesday on the floor of the Senate.
Alexander, a former U.S. education secretary, has said he wants to get a newly written education bill to the floor of the Senate by the end of February, which would be something of a momentous moment in the history of education legislation. No Child Left Behind is the current version of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, signed into law in 2002 and expected to be rewritten in 2007. It wasn't, though it remained in force, and since then, Congress has not found the wherewithal to get the job done. Now Alexander wants to fast-track the process.
Alexander has said he is considering whether to eliminate the mandate for annual exams, which under NCLB are administered to students in grades three through eight and once in high school. Whether he is really considering this or using it as a bargaining chip for something else is unclear. But the idea has resonance with many in the anti-testing movement who believe public education has become perverted by the testing obsession, which began with NCLB under president George W. Bush and became even worse under Obama's Race to the Top education initiative as states and districts added more and more tests to ensure that students could pass the federally mandated tests.
With tens of thousands of parents around the country deciding to opt their children out of new Common Core standardized testing and a growing backlash from educators, the Obama administration has in recent months backed calls for getting rid of redundant testing (which, of course, is a position that nobody in their right mind would oppose). But administration officials have called for limits on state and district testing, insisting that federal testing mandates remain intact. They argue that schools began to pay attention to low-performing students in various subgroups when testing data for each one was mandated by NCLB. And if the testing data is not required annually, they say, these students will be ignored again.
There are important problems with this thinking.
It presumes that high-stakes standardized testing has led to more equity for students. There is no evidence that it has. It presumes that high-stakes standardized tests are valid and reliable measure of what students know and how much teachers have contributed to student progress, but assessment experts say they aren't. It presumes that requiring testing is the only way to ensure that minority and disabled students get attention. That's shallow thinking.
We have had 13 years of federally mandated annual testing, and achievement gaps are still gaping. As education historian and activist Diane Ravitch noted on her blog, tests don't help close achievement gaps; they only measure them. What standardized tests measure accurately is family income; look at SAT and other scores to see how closely they are linked to wealth and poverty. Standardized tests benefit students from privileged families, not children from low-income and minority families or children with disabilities.

Why would civil rights groups think that it is a civil right for students to take a test? The joint statement makes other assumptions about education that are, well, merely assumptions.
As my colleague Emma Brown reported, the joint statement calls for Congress to maintain requirements that states take action when schools do not meet performance targets or close achievement gaps among groups of students. NCLB required that struggling schools face consequences ranging from firing staff members to closing and reopening as a charter school, even though there is no real evidence that these "remedies" have worked.
The statement says that alternative assessments for students with disabilities be limited "only to students with the most significant cognitive disabilities, up to 1 percent of all students." Why one percent? The Education Department says that it is estimated that about one percent have significant cognitive disabilities, but that is just an estimate. Why should students with the most significant cognitive disabilities have to take any standardized test? A few years ago in Florida, a boy born without the cognitive part of his brain was forced to take alternative standardized tests mandated by the state even though he couldn't tell the difference between a car and a boat. The state finally gave him a waiver, but many parents with struggling children say that giving any standardized assessment to their child is useless. Why should all students be tested?
The joint statement calls for "equal access" to a number of things for all children, including "technology including hardware, software, and the Internet." This assumes that technology fundamentally improves the teaching and learning process, and the evidence for most populations of students still isn't there (though it is for students with disabilities).
So which groups signed on to the the statement?
The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, American Association of University Women, American Civil Liberties Union, Children's Defense Fund, Council of Parent Attorneys and Advocates, Disability Rights Education and Defense Fund, Easter Seals, The Education Trust, League of United Latin American Citizens, Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, NAACP, NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, National Center for Learning Disabilities, National Council of La Raza, National Urban League, National Women's Law Center, Partners for Each and Every Child, Southeast Asia Resource Action Center, United Negro College Fund.
It is admittedly not that unexpected that these groups would sign such a statement, given that civil rights groups supported No Child Left Behind (and some of the key people behind the joint statement were advisers to the key legislators who worked with Bush on the bill). One of the key ideas behind NCLB was that teachers and schools simply did not have high enough expectations for disadvantaged students and that was the reason for the education gap. Things like hunger, sickness and violence were merely an excuse teachers offered to explain the poor performance by students. This isn't to say that some teachers shouldn't be in the classroom; plenty shouldn't, but the notion that public schools can broadly ameliorate all of the pathologies that students bring in from the outside by holding their teachers accountable for their test scores is pretty preposterous.
As Mark Naison, a professor of African American studies and history at Fordham University and director of Fordham's Urban Studies Program, wrote in this blog post, titled, "What happens when you equate testing with civil rights":
The collateral damage their approach has imposed on the unfortunate children they claim to be defending dwarfs the gains their approach might produce. There is no excuse for making our neediest children , who should love school the most, hate their school experience. The civil rights groups' endorsement of universal testing is a terrible, terrible mistake."

Ohio State Football
BuckIQ: What versatile athlete Ronnie Hickman brings to Ohio State
COLUMBUS — Ohio State doesn't have to rush to a decision. And that figures to be helpful, because Ronnie Hickman might make it a challenge to find the best spot to use him.
The most likely role for the early enrollee now on campus with the Buckeyes projects to be safety, and the skills to be a defensive star aren't hard to spot. But there is also plenty of evidence on his jam-packed highlight reel from his prolific high-school career in New Jersey that he could just as easily blossom into a star at wide receiver if that's what the program needs.
Ohio State has time to sort it all out, even as Hickman gets an early start on his career and takes part in his first offseason conditioning program ahead of spring practice.
"He's a solid player on both sides of the ball," DePaul Catholic coach John McKenna told northjersey.com. "When we need a big play, he comes through for us. He's going to continually keep getting better because he's a hard worker."
The Buckeyes will put that to the test right away no matter where they plan to initially line up Hickman, who already brings some Big Ten-caliber physical tools as a freshman thanks to the 200 pounds on his 6-foot-1 frame. Given the loaded depth chart at wide receiver and some of the inconsistencies at safety last season before Brendon White emerged alongside Jordan Fuller, the path to playing time and Hickman's skills combine to make the secondary his best bet moving forward.
But as former Ohio State linebacker Zach Boren breaks down in his latest episode of BuckIQ, there is plenty to like on both offense and defense with the talented prospect. Where will he end up and what will he become? That process all starts now with the Buckeyes as Boren evaluates what Ronnie Hickman brings to the program.
Roll the tape!

OK so my birthday was almost a month ago now so this is kinda late (dissertations suck), but I wanted to write a quick post about it like I did last year. I'd just like to say thank you to everyone for the birthday wishes, cards, gifts and celebrations. I had a fantastic one :)
Again, as I share my birthday with 2 friends (they're twins!), we all went out in Edinburgh to celebrate. I bought a new dress with my birthday cash from ASOS, this one to be precise:
Glamorous Belted Skater Dress In Geo Maze Printwhich I loved :) Of course, I painted my nails too in my new Coralicious polish, love the bright colour against the black and white print.
During the day Jon took me for lunch at Papii, I popped in to uni for a couple of classes then returned home for a chinese takeaway. I also received lots of cool gifts, here's a couple I just had to share (excuse the lack of lighting!)...
1. The Travel Book: A Journey Through Every Country in the World. Where to go next... I'd love to travel around South America, especially Peru!
2. Krakow (Lonely Planet Encounter Guides) & Polish Zloty. Jon and I are visiting Poland for a week with 6 friends in May!
3. Gok Cooks Chinese. Jon and I cooked the Soy Glazed Chicken for Valentine's Day and it was divine.
And that's my 23rd birthday!

Balkan Energy Prospect is among the tools created by Balkan Green Foundation, with the idea to represent an open, powerful, and informative platform for discovering and analyzing the key insights accentuating the capacities of each Western Balkans country in terms of their respective energy sectors.
Ultimately, this platform is drafted with the idea to offer a brief yet comprehensive reflection of the developments in the energy sector in each of the 6 countries of the Western Balkans, respectively Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, and Serbia.
The platform provides a visual representation of data, denoting that an efficient electricity access and connection of strategies within WB region will drive the cooperation process and contribute regionally towards the advancement of their energy systems, guided by the shared commitments, obligations, and targets of the Energy Community Treaty.
With the establishment of cooperation and an integrated energy infrastructure amongst each other, countries will increase cross-border cooperation and develop regional projects and lower their carbon economy.
As such, this platform provides valuable information about six WB countries in terms of their energy technologies, potential synergies for a future integrated energy market, and capacities for energy diversification within the WB region.
Balkan Green Foundation (BGF) in cooperation with Institute for Development Policy (INDEP), are implementing a three-year project 'Empower – Engage – Build Ownership' supported by the EU Office in Kosovo.
The project objective is to enable Kosovo's civil society sector to fulfill its role in the democratic environment by acting as independent interlocutors, monitoring public institutions, increasing accountability and transparency in policy development and decision making processes regarding concerns of communities and civil society groups in the area of environment preservation, green energy and sustainable economic growth.
Among others, project purposes include:
- Improving the skills and information-sharing capability of CSOs on policy monitoring, advocacy and campaigning on the targeted thematic priorities;
- Increasing the incentive to improve participation of CSOs in policy making and policy implementation, advocacy and grassroots activities through funding organizations in the whole Kosovo;
- Increasing citizens' awareness on sustainable development in Kosovo through supporting activities that especially promote environment preservation, green energy and sustainable economic growth. In a nutshell, the project aims to provide continuous support to public institutions and CSO's by engaging in activities that promote environmental preservation, green economy and sustainable economic growth in the whole Kosovo; and simultaneously, contribute in increasing citizens' awareness on sustainable development in Kosovo.
"Promoting and supporting the inclusion of energy efficiency measures and renewable energy sources in Kosovo's energy mix" project is financed by GIZ (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit) and implemented by Balkan Green Foundation.
The overall objective is to contribute to a better understanding among the general public and public servants of the benefits brought by investments in energy efficiency and renewable energy sources in Kosovo; increasing the general awareness on the importance and the concrete benefits of energy efficiency measures; contributing to improved societal behavioural change towards energy spending and savings by using new technologies and measures, achieved through new fiscal, administrative and public policy measures.
More specifically, the objectives of the project are:
- To advance the public dialogue, raise awareness on the importance of energy efficiency and seek effective ways to promote energy efficiency and renewable energy sources while at the same time advocating for green growth.
- To advocate for green economy principles, energy savings and the speeding up of the adoption of policy measures in governmental strategies, administrative measures and academic papers.
"GREEN CROSS – Towards Local Green Economies with Smart Investments" is funded by the European Union and implemented by Balkan Green Foundation, Qendra EDEN/EDEN Center, Municipality of Has and Municipality of Klina.
The project is implemented for a period of 40 months in: Albania, Has Municipality and Kosovo, Municipality of Klina and aims to contribute to an overall sustainable economic growth in the cross-border region by enabling transition of municipalities into the sustainable green economy through integrated policy, smart public investments, and capacity development.
Each stakeholder in Has and Klinë Municipality plays an important role not only as a direct beneficiary but also in the successful implementation of the project. This project is under the Cross Border Cooperation (CBC) Programme for Environment between Albania and Kosovo.
Overall objective:
- To contribute to an overall sustainable economic growth in the cross-border region by enabling transition of municipalities into the sustainable green economy through integrated policy, smart public investments and capacity development.
Specific objectives:
- To drive sustainable growth of municipal incomes by aligning local policies with green economy principles to enhance resource efficiency, and by investing in smart green energy projects to provide low cost and access to non-polluting and good quality electricity to the population of urban and rural areas in Has and Kline municipalities.
- To raise capacities and stimulate green economy and entrepreneurship, sustainable agriculture, and green practices among the general public and different parties as key to eco-touristic potentials and sustainable economic development of the transboundary area.
RISE (Regional Incubator for Social Entrepreneurs)
The RISE (Regional Incubator for Social Entrepreneurs) supports young change-makers in developing their impactful ideas into sustainable social businesses. The tailor-made support program is developed and monitored by the Consortium consisting of RYCO, GROUPE SOS Pulse, SEEYN, the Institut français, and the Franco-German Youth Office (FGYO), and supported by the Agence Française de Développement and Regional Youth Cooperation Office. Balkan Green Foundation is one of the six local incubators in the Western Balkans region responsible for implementing RISE activities.
The objective of the project is to address a specific and crucial need in the region in relation to its current context and history: opening new spaces of reconciliation for the youth of the Western Balkans through social entrepreneurship. The project, due to its very regional nature, will tend to increase the number of cross-border interactions around social entrepreneurship during the 3 years of the project and thereafter.
- The first specific objective is to enrich the capacity of the social entrepreneurship ecosystem in the Western Balkans region. This specific objective is aimed at local support structures (RISE incubators) who are promoting innovative and social projects and project leaders.
- The second specific objective is linked to the very nature of the project: to encourage reconciliation through social entrepreneurship, it is necessary to encourage a favorable context for the development of entrepreneurial projects. Raising awareness of social entrepreneurship in Western Balkan societies is a key element in the development of the project and should generate a dynamic and informed community of young social entrepreneurs.
Germanwatch and Balkan Green Foundation (BGF) jointly started the initiative of planning the Multi-actor Partnership (MAP) project which tackles the transition of Kosovo's energy system, and in particular its electricity system, towards a more sustainable state, increasing the share of renewable energy, and improving local energy efficiency, - urgent issues with direct and indirect economic, ecologic, health and peace building consequences for at the 1.8 million citizens of Kosovo as well as the neighbouring regions.
The project effectively will foster a local multi-actor partnership as an ideal mean to create resonance and support from key local actors, to develop their own vision of a sustainable energy transition as a common societal project. Additionally, the project aims to transfer knowledge amid key local actors and other experienced knowledge carriers from around Europe in order to enable Kosovo to leapfrog on lessons learned in implementing sustainable energy transitions and integrate climate change measures into national policies, strategies and planning.
The target group of the project involves all those parties who are relevant for designing, implementing and executing a sustainable energy transition in Kosovo and the Western Balkan: Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), the Government, the private sector, local municipalities, media and university students. The project is developmentally effective because an economic, secure, socially acceptable and sustainable electricity supply is at the heart of any long-term economic development and specific to Kosovo is the peace building aspect of ensuring a well-functioning electricity system.
Furthermore, the project will seek to invest in local capacity development and tangible pilot projects that will persist over the time frame of the project. Ultimately, it is the citizens of Kosovo who are meant to profit through the project in the long-term, through the positive direct and indirect economic and health effects of a sustainable energy transition.
