Structured Green: Modern Eco-Friendly Furniture
- Location: Savannah, GA and online
- Website: structuredgreen.com
Store History
- Founded: 2007
- Founded by: Mike Ayers and Raquel Anderson
- Headquarters: Savannah, GA
There is something about salvaged wood that makes us swoon. It's where green meets sexy. Like a mysterious and handsome stranger with a past, it is a material that, if could talk, would have amazing stories to tell. And, when it's part of furniture that's beautifully designed, polished with oil and beewax to a soft, inviting glow...well, excuse us if we're a bit weak in the knees. Intrigued? Let us introduce you to Structured Green.
The furniture from this company, founded by Mike Ayers, an architect, and Raquel Anderson, an interior designer, is as well-mannered as we'd expect anyone from Savannah, Georgia, where the company is located, to be. It's quiet, strong and elegant. There's something familiar about these designs. While there's the influences of modern, Shaker, traditional and mid-century in the lines of the furniture, it never quite tips over into any one genre thus these pieces will hold their own among many styles. Which just means that while other pieces in your home may come and go, these will stay around for a long time, maybe for a generation, maybe two.
Shown above the jump, from left to right:
- Slider sideboard
- Drop table: their signature piece, it's made from the extras found on the woodworking floor, so that every table is unique.
- Cuppa coffee table
- Oops crib
- High Truss bed

Should Investors Sweat Gold's Losing Streak?
Early Friday, gold prices remained mostly flat. However, prices headed towards their third consecutive week of losses, the longest losing streak for the precious metal since October. Despite concerning economic reports, gold and silver seem to be sidelined for the moment.
According to a Bloomberg survey, 13 out of 26 analysts expect gold prices to increase next week and four held a neutral stance, the lowest proportion in about two months. This comes a week after Commodity Futures Trading Commission data showed a 20 percent decrease in net long futures positions held by speculators. "Everything's beginning to look as if it's turning the corner, we've passed the point of maximum despair. A number of things which would have kept people with an eye on the upside for gold have now been neutralized. Gold can now settle back," claimed an analyst at Royal Bank of Scotland.
Although some may believe conditions have been neutralized, consumers are feeling the effects of loose monetary policy. The cost of living in the United States increased in February by the most in 10 months. The Labor Department reported that the consumer-price index, which grossly under estimates real inflation, increased a seasonally adjusted 0.4 percent in February from the prior month. Compared to a year ago, consumer prices jumped 2.9 percent. Energy costs contributed much to the increase in living costs, with gasoline prices surging 6 percent, the biggest jump in more than a year. It is estimated that a 10 cent increase in the price of gasoline results in a decline of almost $12 billion in personal income.
Don't Miss: Is Tide Detergent Liquid Gold?
Conditions have also not neutralized in regards to the nation's budget. The Treasury Department recently reported that the U.S. government ran a budget deficit of $231.7 billion in February, an increase from $222.5 billion a year earlier. The budget deficit for the first five months of the fiscal year hit $581 billion. Furthermore, the federal deficit is expected to top $1 trillion for the fourth consecutive year, as the Federal Reserve continues to keep interest rates at record lows. The government and financial markets are addicted to cheap money and the Fed is willing to be the Keynesian drug dealer. When investors fear inflation and counter-party risk, they turn to gold.
As governments become more desperate to maintain the status quo, they also turn to gold. Today, India's Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee said the country's budget shortfall for the year through March 31 will be 5.9 percent, higher than the 4.6 percent target set last year. As a result, the government proposed a change in tax laws that could rake in billions of dollars in capital gains taxes. GoldCore explains, "India raised the gold import duty 90 percent and doubled the tax on silver as the government is struggling with a growing fiscal deficit and looked to increase revenues. Growing subsidies for fuel and food have left the government struggling to meet its budget target. Indian investors, who are the largest consumer group of gold in the world, rushed to buy gold in advance of the government's plan to increase the 4 percent customs tax in April 2012."
While gold and silver have struggled in March, this appears to be momentary breather from their decade long winning streak. Inflation and budget concerns still persist and more debt-based solutions will only add to the problem. Hayman Capital founder, Kyle Bass, recently said, "Call it what you want. Call it LTRO, call it quantitative easing, or any acronym that the powers that be want to call it. I call it money creation out of thin air, and therefore, gold has got a lot further to go." As Treasury yields add to a weekly rise that's the biggest since July, it appears that Fed officials will be doing the sweating, not gold investors.

GEOS managed to offer nearly all the functionality of the original Mac in a 1 MHz computer with 64 Kilobytes of RAM. It wasn't an OS written to run on a generic x86 chip on a moving hardware platform. It was written using immense knowledge of the hardware and the tricks one could use to maximise speed. Note: After a small break, here is another one of the articles for the Alternative OS contest.

Conventional wisdom tells us that there's only one thing worse than video games based on movies, and that's movies based on video games. But conventional wisdom isn't always right, and I can name a bunch of really good games that happened to have movie licenses. (Uh, I'll have to get back to you on the list of good vidgame movies.) Certainly, we've come a long way since the days of the reprehensible Total Recall for the NES, and Shiny's Enter The Matrix is a new breed of movie-licensed video game. The game makers worked closely with the Matrix movie staff to take their production to a new level of authenticity and game / movie integration. Unfortunately, playing Enter The Matrix served as a painful reminder that all the authenticity in the world can't help when the game is completely unpolished and the core gameplay is weak.

2003 is the year of The Matrix. Neo and his rebellious friends are set to assault the general public with two blockbuster movies -- Matrix Reloaded and Matrix Revolution -- one set of awesome animated shorts -- The Animatrix -- and, of course, the video game from Shiny known as Enter the Matrix. I was lucky enough to attend a promotional Hollywood party earlier this year where the game was shown to members of the press. On show were three or four levels from the game, and although the playtime was pretty limited, I was able to get a good feel for the intended level of action. I left the event wanting more.

Amid tight security, we're about to head over to the Warner Brothers studio lot in Hollywood to see the Enter the Matrix video game for the first time. We'll also have a chance to screen the first of the Animatrix short films set within the Matrix universe, and in doing so, get an early glimpse into this summer's sequel, The Matrix Reloaded.

After my last visit to Nickel Diner in Los Angeles, I was obsessed about my incredible poptart that I had for dessert. I vowed to make them at home and soon. When I saw that Williams-Sonoma had a press, and that Dave and I were venturing that way for dinner and movie, I took the opportunity to pick one up and have some fun with it.
I used the recipe that came with the packaging.
Basically a pie crust dough with 2 tablespoons of sugar added. The fillings you can use are endless, but I used a simple mixed berry jam.
I rolled the crust 1/8 of an inch thick, and then cut them with the wider cutter. Then I added one tablespoon of jam to the middle
I spread the jam to within 1/2 inch of the edges.
And used an egg wash on the edges. I placed the tops onto the poptart and used the smaller part of the kit to "Press" the edges together. I could have used a fork, but then I wouldn't have the crimped edges, and it would have taken longer to fork all the edges.
I used the egg wash on the tops and then baked them for 30 minutes, rotating 1/2 way though the time.
I iced them, fast cause Dave was snooping around all hungry-like, so they are not the neatest looking things. The ones at Nickel Diner had the royal icing and sprinkles on them, and it blew them out of the water! I will do that next time. I am also going to experiment with fillings. These turned out really good, and everyone loved them. Everyone being Jordan and Dave.

One company's response to the jury verdict in Apple vs. Samsung was still missing: Google's. The company has now responded to The Verge, and there's almost a certain bitterness in their language. Not, as you would expect, directed at Apple; no, the bitterness is directed at Samsung. The message Google is sending to other Android OEMs? Stick to stock Android, and you'll have no problems.

Longwei Petroleum Received Non-Compliance Notice and Intends to Regain Compliance with NYSE MKT
Longwei will take further steps to defend itself and protect shareholder value
Feb 12, 2013, 05:00 ET
TAIYUAN CITY, China, Feb. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Ltd. (NYSE MKT: LPH) ("Longwei" or the "Company"), an energy company engaged in the storage and distribution of finished petroleum products in the People's Republic of China ("PRC"), announced that it has received notice from the NYSE MKT that the Company is not in compliance with Section 801(h) of the NYSE MKT Company Guide (the "Company Guide") in that at least 50% of the directors on the Company's Board of Directors are not independent and Section 803(B)(2)(c) of the Company Guide in that the Company has only one out of the requisite two members on its audit committee. The Company's non-compliance with these Sections is a result of the resignations of its former independent directors, Douglas Cole and Xue Xiaoping, as previously disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 1, 2013.
As previously stated, Longwei believes the Geo Investing report dated January 3, 2013 contains numerous errors of facts, misleading speculations and malicious interpretations of events. Nevertheless, in order to provide the highest level of transparency to its shareholders, the Company and its legal counsel in the U.S. and the PRC, as well as its auditor are reviewing the allegations and management is cooperating with the review process. The Company intends to take further action to defend itself.
Pursuant to Section 802(b) of the Company Guide, the Company has until the earlier of its next annual shareholders' meeting or one year from the event that caused the failure to comply to regain compliance with NYSE MKT's board independence requirements (provided, however, that if the annual shareholders' meeting occurs no later than 180 days following the event that caused the failure to comply, the Company shall have 180 days from the date of such event to regain compliance).
Pursuant to Section 803(B)(6)(b), the Company will have until the earlier of its next annual shareholders' meeting or one year from the occurrence of the event that caused the failure to comply to regain compliance with NYSE MKT's audit committee composition requirement, provided, however, that if the Company's annual shareholders; meeting occurs no later than 75 days following the event that caused the failure to comply, the Company shall instead have 75 days from the date of such event to regain compliance.
NYSE MKT has notified the Company that it will be included in the list of issuers that are not in compliance with the NYSE MKT's continued listing standards within five days from the date of such notice. The Company intends to regain compliance within the allotted timeframe.
The Company will continue to release additional information concerning the allegations in due course. Longwei is committed to providing full and accurate disclosure to investors and to rebutting any false claims that attempt to undermine confidence in the Company.
About Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited
Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited is an energy company engaged in the storage and distribution of finished petroleum products in the People's Republic of China. The Company's oil and gas operations consist of transporting, storing and selling finished petroleum products, entirely in the PRC. The Company's headquarters are located in Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province. The Company has a storage capacity for its products of 220,000 metric tons ("mt") located at three storage facilities within Shanxi: Taiyuan, Gujiao and Huajie, which have an individual storage capacity of approximately 50,000mt, 70,000mt, and 100,000mt, respectively. The Company has the necessary licenses to operate and sell petroleum products not only in Shanxi, but throughout the entire PRC. The Company's storage tanks have the largest storage capacity of any non-government operated entity in Shanxi.
The Company seeks to earn profits by selling its products at competitive prices with timely delivery to transportation companies, coal mining operations, power supply customers, large-scale gas stations and small, independent gas stations. The Company also earns revenue from agency fees by acting as a purchasing agent for other intermediaries in Shanxi, and through limited sales of diesel and gasoline at two retail gas stations, each located at the Company's Taiyuan and Gujiao facilities. The Company seeks to continue to expand its customer base and distribution platform through the utilization of its large storage capacity, which allows the Company the flexibility to take advantage of pricing, supply and demand fluctuations in the marketplace.

Washington, DC – Commenting on yesterday's election results, Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, said:
"Elections are ultimately about turnout, and many of the results of yesterday's elections show that when there is an intensely motivated base, change can occur. That will be our theme as we initiate our political responsibility teams across the country to prepare for the elections of 2010 and to bring about an increase of motivated voters who will advance the culture of life in the voting booth. We are grateful to the many volunteers who registered voters and handed out voter guides in this election cycle."

I have several sites that are written in asp working through ISS these I am gradually changing to PHP. I want to use Xampp to test locally as one of the sites is very complex..
The problem is that IIS needs to be there to run the existing asp sites until I have rebuilt them in PHP but Xampp won't run together with IIS, and I cannot get xampp to start, I also have Skype on my computer using a port.
I have changed the IIS to port 8080. I have changed the settings to Skype and I have reinstalled Xampp.
Before the setup ran, it had a message to say I should disconnect the User Account Control after installing Xampp. This I have done but in the Xampp control panel each time I press the start Apache button I get a message saying Xampp control.EXE has stopped working, Close Program.
Have you any idea how I can get over this please.
I am running Version 1.8.1 of Xampp
and windows 7
Have you any suggestions please.

Lake Ontario is the source of drinking water for most of the GTA. It is pumped from the lake and then treated by the City of Toronto and Peel Region. It is purchased by York Region and pumped through large regional pipes up to Markham and neighbouring municipalities. Markham buys the clean water and delivers it to homes, schools and businesses through the municipal water system, which it owns and manages. Wastewater is carried away through the municipal sanitary sewer system through the York Region system to the Durham Region's Duffin Creek Water Pollution Treatment Plant in Pickering for treatment before it is released back into Lake Ontario.
Each year, Markham Council approves a Water Rate based on the cost of delivering this service. The rate ensures sufficient funding to pay for:
It also covers the cost for Markham to ensure its drinking water quality meets Ontario's drinking water standards [Safe Drinking Water Act (2001)]. All revenue goes to fund the municipal water system and does not go into general revenue.
The Total Combined 2018 Water/Wastewater Rate is $4.1442 per cubic metre (per 1000 litres) of water.
You can also review the report on the 2018 water rate (PDF).
Charges for water and electricity both appear on your Powerstream bill, which is sent to residents every 2 months. Water and sewer charges are calculated by multiplying water consumption (m3) by the water rate. The sample bill below shows where to find your water consumption and water and sewer charges, as well as your recent water consumption history.
Water costs were low for many years and are still lower than many other household expenses, such as electricity, internet and telephone service. However, costs are now rising due to the increasing energy costs needed for pumping water and wastewater; aging pipes; more severe weather conditions which impact the system; and increasing provincial regulations. At the same time that costs are increasing, water sales are decreasing, due to improved water-efficient appliances and fixtures and water conservation.
Markham, like other municipalities in Ontario, is assessing a new water rate structure – one that would ensure there is adequate funding for the water and waste water system and that would be transparent, accountable and stable over the long term.
