Last month, a horse named Nyquist won the 142nd Kentucky Derby. Of course, I immediately thought of the groundbreaking engineer and communications theorist Harry Nyquist, whose work is fundamental to data conversion
applications. He's a true engineering celebrity of the sort that I wrote aboutin an earlier Editor's Note. It was a thrill to see the name of one of our engineering heroes being honored in the mainstream international media.
Harry Nyquist came to the US from Sweden in 1907 at the age of 18, and promptly earned BSEE and MSEE degrees from the University of North Dakota and then a Ph.D. in physics from Yale. He went on to do amazing things at AT&T and Bell Labs, and his name lives on today most notably in the Nyquist sampling theorem, also known as the Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem. So when I saw the horse Nyquist, my mind immediately started to think up engineering jokes: I wonder if Nyquist will run twice as fast as the next fastest horse…How do we know that the horse we see is real and not an aliased image…Will his lane at the starting gate be the Nyquist Zone? Then I discovered Nyquist the horse is actually named for a hockey player. My short-lived excitement was crushed.
In this issue, our feature article authors Colm Slattery and Ke Li take a look at a particularly timely issue, as more and more environmental regulations to control and monitor liquid waste are appearing worldwide. Electromagnetic flow technology is the choice for this particular application, and the trend is toward an oversampled approach, which challenges the ADC requirements. In addition to oversampling design considerations, their detailed article discusses the significant power
challenges involved in the application.
In the 141st running of the Preakness, Nyquist came in third, so no Triple Crown bid for this horse. But those of you involved with mixed-signal system design, know that Nyquist, the sampling theorem, can never really be beaten. It is also known to occasionally bite you.

We are a fast-paced organization, committed to meet the rising needs of our valuable clients by manufacturing and supplying Biomass Sawdust Dryers. These sawdust flash dryers are used in biomass and charcoal processing industries, To manufacture the dryers we use best quality materials, procured from the most trusted and reliable vendors. Our quality inspectors check the Biomass Sawdust Dryers on certain quality parameters to provide a defect free range to the clients. Moreover, we offer the dryers at the market leading prices.
Flash dryer series
Production range: 750-3000 KGs/Hr
Input moisture: 35%
Output moisture: 15%
Connected Load: 10-30 HP
Biomass Sawdust Dryers/Flash Dryers
Lot of raw material contain moisture which requires a dryer to process the material to be briquetted. Ideal for plants processing saw dust, coir, coir pith, bagasse or any other material with moisture content of more than 30-35%.
Further Details:
Flash drying is the pre process to densification, very much like grinding. Flash dryers (one of the most commonly used Industrial Dryers) find usage in suspension drying of powdery, granulated or ground material such as coir pith, saw dust, and baggasse pith. These materials are usually with moisture content of 35% or less.
The second type of Industrial Dryer is Concentric Column Turbo Dryer which comprises a jacketed drying column. This drying column is actually a pipe which is inserted inside another bigger pipe, therefore the material passes through same drying column twice. Hence, the dyer can easily dry materials with moisture content upto 50% on wet basis. The basic turbo dryer system consists Screw Conveyor, Main Drive, Feeding Hopper, and Conveying line including insulated drying column as well as a conveyor through which wet/ moist materials pass in the presence of hot air to the cyclone. There is a powerful low pressure centrifugal fan which ensures sufficient resilience time for complete removal of excess moisture. Material is then discharged through cyclone by means of a Rotary Air Lock.
Briquettes can be made using all types of agricultural waste. Here, are certain parameters of raw material to be used:
1. Moisture should not be more than 12%
2. Material size should not exceed over 5-6mm in dia (machine specific)
If a material meets these criteria, it can be easily converted into biofuel with the help of a briquetting machine. The material has to be fed into the machine, and then it passes through the screw and gets deposited in a funnel where another screw compresses the material into the feeder box. Material is then pushed from the feeder box into die by a ram. The die (placed in heated die holder) then compresses material & squeezes out the lignin that acts as a binding agent and densifies the raw material. Material after coming out of the die holder travels through a cooling line & briquetting process is complete.

Going to college can be a daunting task. There are so many applications to fill out, preparations to be made and a multitude of things to get organized. Though it may seem like no easy task, when you put the right advice to work for you, you can make the process much smoother. Read on and get a jump start on your next steps.
No matter how long it may seem to take or what you have to go through in the process, don't ever give up on your collegiate career! In the heat of the moment, something or someone may hold more appeal than all the studying and endless exams, but in the end, that certificate of graduation will be well worth whatever you have to do to get it.
Don't worry about choosing your major right away. Most schools give you until your junior year to select a major, so you should take time to explore different options and figure out what you most enjoy and might want to make a career out of before you select your major.
When you enter your room on the first day of college, the best thing that you can do is to fraternize with your roommates. These are going to be the people that you spend the rest of the year with so it is very smart to make friends with them immediately.
A great skill that you should learn going into college is cooking. This is very important as it can help you to construct the types of meals that you desire and will also assist in saving money on eating out over time. Also, this skill can make you more valuable to your roommates.
Get as involved as possible with the students on campus and with certain organizations in the school. This is very important as you do not want to be tagged as a social outcast with nothing to do during the day. This will help you to make friends and feel like a part of the university.
Keep in touch with your family. This may seem like a no-brainer, but it's hard sometimes to keep in touch with your siblings and parents when you have so much going on in your college life. Make time for at least one call or Skype session every week, and you'll make them happy.
When you are planning your schedule, do your best to refrain from scheduling classes that are too early in the morning or too late at night. These classes can be very difficult, as you will often miss these classes due to the time. Schedule classes back to back in the middle of the day.
Become a morning person. There is a lot of socializing in college, and if you are serious about your studying, that socializing can make it tough to concentrate in your dorm at night. Instead, try getting up bright and early before everyone else so that you can study in peace.
Every time you purchase something with cash, put your spare change into a jar and try not to touch it. Once the jar has filled up, count out the money and use it toward something you need, like books or living expenses. While it may be easier to use a coin-counting machine, try and refrain. You will wind up giving them too much of your hard-earned cash.
If possible try to live for your first year in campus housing. By taking advantage of room and board you can give yourself more of a chance to focus on getting accustomed to the campus and community. Then in following years you will have a better idea of where you might prefer to live on your own.
Use the many resources of the library. It is a great place to study, read and relax. When you really need to concentrate, the quiet of the library is a great place to escape the activity of the dorm. The library is also where you can find the most comfortable chairs on campus.
Getting yourself ready for college does not have to be difficult. It will not overwhelm you when you are educating yourself about moving forward with your education. Now that you have some solid advice to work with, you can get down to the real business of accomplishing your goals in college.

(Alexandria, VA) -- Governor Mark Warner can help to "cushion the blow" of Katrina-related fuel supply disruptions and ongoing gas price spikes by lowering taxes on motorists: that's the message in an open letter sent to Warner today from the 400,000-member National Taxpayers Union (NTU). The non-partisan citizen group has over 9,500 members in Virginia.
"NTU encourages you to permanently lower state gas tax rates or provide temporary relief through a 'gas tax holiday,'" NTU Government Affairs Manager Kristina Rasmussen wrote to Warner. "It is our belief that such a move would be the best solution available for assisting consumers in your state in this time of crisis."
Rasmussen noted that last week Georgia's Sonny Perdue became the latest Governor to temporarily suspend by Executive Order the state's per-gallon and sales taxes on gasoline (following those in Illinois and Indiana who did so in 2000). Although laws in some states can limit the authority of chief executives over tax policies, all Governors can at least call special sessions of their State Legislatures to enact fuel tax relief.
However, Rasmussen also cited other reasons why Warner should act constructively on behalf of Virginia's consumers, with tax and regulatory relief rather than price or demand control schemes. The Commonwealth's government, which will likely collect $13.9 billion from taxpayers this year and enjoy a budget surplus of more than $500 million, could absorb any revenue "losses" that might occur (gas tax proceeds may already be dropping due to reduced consumption). Furthermore, even though Virginia's gas tax ranks 37th from the top nationally, when combined with the federal tax motorists here face a 36 cent-per-gallon rate (local option sales taxes only worsen the burden). This adds $5.39 to the price of a 15-gallon fill-up.
NTU is undertaking or planning many activities in support of fuel tax relief for Virginians, including coalition efforts with local taxpayer groups throughout the Commonwealth, talk radio appearances, e-mail alerts to concerned citizens, and possibly, paid advertising.
"Although using budget reserves to fund new spending programs may be tempting, lowering state gas taxes immediately is a better way to assist Virginians as all taxpayers and aspects of your state's economy are affected by rising gas prices," Rasmussen concluded in her letter to the Governor. "Your active leadership would ensure that beleaguered Virginia motorists can better cope with this trying time."
NTU is a non-profit organization working for lower taxes, smaller government, and economic freedom at all levels. Note: Rasmussen's letter to Warner, along with numerous studies and commentaries on government transportation policy, may be accessed online at www.ntu.org.

I like to word it as controlling the lane, as the verb "taking" is often used to mean making use of something that you are not welcome to use. I'm just controlling the traffic lane on a public road, riding safely, legally.

In Alberta, as many other jurisdictions, we're required under the Highway Traffic Act to ride to ride as far to the right as practicable: "A person who is operating a cycle, other than a motor cycle, on a highway shall operate the cycle as near as practicable to the right curb or edge of the roadway unless that person is in the process of making a left turn with the cycle."

So only a left turn exception; not even exceptions for roadway quality, obstructions, etc etc. Why aren't cycling advocacy groups across Canada working to remove these email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-29903046.post-17762521549097985512016-08-12T01:30:01.083-04:002016-08-12T01:30:01.083-04:00I would agree with Principled Pragmatist if John F...I would agree with Principled Pragmatist if John Foster had not also written, in the same paragraph: "...Motordom's motorist supremacy policy and its Jim Crow laws that demeaned cyclists...."

Noting that insisting on equal rights for bicyclists does not pit bicyclists against motorists, just like insisting on equal rights for blacks does not pit blacks against whites, is not equating a persecuted minority with bicyclists. Thinking it does demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding about analogy.

Noting that 1:2 is like 3:6 does not even suggest to equate 1 and 3.

Like blacks and cyclists, 1 and 3 are very different in many ways. But the the question of whether insisting on equal roadway rights for bicyclists is pitting bicyclists against motorists is comparable to the question of whether insisting on equal societal rights for blacks is pitting blacks against whites. The answer to both questions is no. That's the only point.

The City coducted an EMF study and found that the EMF levels were very high and were high enough to cause leukemia in children under 12 years of age. Toronto Public Health recommended that the path be relocated to the south end of the field but the City did not do this.
The EMF readings all along this path are approximately at the the 50 milligaus level. Anywhere but in hydro field they are at 1 to 2 milligaus. The World Health Organization listed EMF exposure as a possible carcinogen in 2001 and have not taken it off the list to date. So basically, riding, walking or playing under hydro lines may cause cancer and I will not ride in these fields. The actual study was not released to the Public, however you can ask for the actual study fron Daniel Egan at the City of Toronto. The department of Public Health recomendations can probably also be requested from Public Health. You need to be very specific and ask for the report from these trails. Otherwise they will send you their EMF policy. The City deided to use hydro fields for multiuse trails because they feel that the benefit of exercise outways the number of deaths that may result from cancer. However they also decided to hide the possible cancer risk. Personaly, I can ride my bike on the road or in parks and never worry about getting cancer from EMF's. Avoid riding in hydro fields.

But calculating the distance between a school or house and airport distorts the situation; flight paths outside the airport affect the surrounding area just as much, and several Pearson flight paths go pretty well directly over homes and schools (corresponding flight paths for Toronto City Centre Airport go over water).

As for peak oil, don't count on it. The Americans have already announced that they expect Jet-A from algae will cost less than the fuel currently derived from petroleum. I suspect we will have to deal with the question of how best to share the costs as well as the benefits of air travel for some time.

As for your other statistic; first, I do not believe that anything like 94% of the world's population cannot afford to fly. In any case, the exact number of people who can afford to fly has little relevance. Even people who cannot afford to fly benefit from the knowledge and freedom that our civilization, which inevitably relies on air travel, makes possible.John G.

We have a similar thread called: "So you ordered a New Oc -- Oh God, the wait!"
I think you have posted on it before, as have I :)
I guess this is a little broad though, your new topic, as I guess it not only covers Ocarinas, but other things as well :3
I have a few ocs on the way, what it is...is...a surprise. xD
I'm hoping one of them arrives within this week...I know the other one won't be here too soon, since the other will come from outside the country :<
I'm also expecting to get a laptop that I finally ordered sometime this week. Still haven't decided on the bag, but hopefully I get that taken care of soon too.

Black sheep among your daily lurkers
I want those! ; ~ ;
I had a hard time deciding, between that combo, and another one...but went with that other one.
I am hoping when I have money again, the B3 + B1 Rotter combo is still available for purchase.
If you've already sent your shipping payment, I'm guessing they would be sent either that same day or the next.

Reiko you and all your Rotters XD
Well I ordered them last night and I hear Mr. Rotter has been busy with the zelda ocs so its ify (if-ee, is that even a word?)
|18 Mar 2011, 04:21 AM Post #21
Black sheep among your daily lurkers
Lol, I know, right. xD
I couldn't help it. It took some peer pressure down to finally let myself go ahead with the purchase. XD
One of the ones I reaaally want at the moment, that I don't think I can have because it's not available on the site anymore, (and it may have gone up in price)...is their 12 hole A1 :(
and the OTHER Lang ocarinas! (want!)
I'm really curious about those 12 hole Zelda ones, but since they are in C, and I still very much do have a great relationship with my dear Focalink AC-A, I don't think I'm in a hurry for that one. xD
...but going back on your order. Well, are you located in Europe? For me, since I am outside of the EU, I had to send in shipping separately after I ordered. Also, since shipping prices may have changed, and because the one that I ordered was a little heavier than what I had first ordered...I had to wait the next day for Mr. Rotter to check shipping with the PO. After that, he sent me an email, quoting me the shipping price, and I paid.
If you're within the EU, or something, then perhaps shipping would have already been supported for it at the website? If not, inquire for shipping cost, and once you do know, you send the shipping payment via paypal.
After all that, then it should be leaving for wherever you are already :P
And yes, I think he has been busy. I actually had to check if my package had already been sent the other day, since the last time I ordered, I believe I was notified about it...and this time, I wasn't. But he responded within a number of hours (morning for me, sent email night time EST) and told me it was shipped out on the 8th :)
I am hoping it arrives before I go leave for my trip :(
(Also, yes yes iffy is a word :3 )

Not as in kazoo XD
@Reikokuna I live in Canada and before I ordered I asked him what shipping would cost so then I could just pay all at once.
Oooh the 12 hole A1, i want it too!!! Everyone needs an oc in A(and a lang. Hehe) It seems that 12 holes are cost so much more than 10 holes tho. I also love the meissen design!
|18 Mar 2011, 05:11 AM Post #23
Black sheep among your daily lurkers
Ah, then good! xD
That's also what I did on my first order, inquire how much shipping is first, then went ahead with the order through the website, and then sent shipping in (since I was told to just order through the website and send the shipping via paypal separately, since I couldn't add it with the order, for some reason.)
This time though, well, there was that one weekly offer that was up, and I thought I didn't have enough time. xD
So I went and ordered it first AND THEN inquired on shipping charges again :P
Also, I already have an ocarina in A 8-D ...but...it's a pendant. SO IT'S NOT THE SAME. D:
And yes, the Meissen Rotter ocs are really lovely, but...but. So expensive D:
It's really difficult to make and paint those though, so I know why.
I still want that Bb...I don't have an ocarina in Bb yet...or D...or Eb... :(

Play what makes you happy. - Achint
I am currently waiting on my Songbird: Dragontooth, hylian shield pendant, taichi soprano g pendant, and a seepod soprano c ocarina.
I decided to get all the ocarinas I will need for a while at once to save on shipping and because I have a coupon code. I am dirt poor, so every bit counts, lol. I did have to save up for a while to get this though! and I am so exited! I got the cheapest mail so it should take about 5 business days I assume.
Also, once this order comes in my ocarina collection will be more than doubled! I am so exited! I will finally have a pendant, 3 actually! And the dragontooth will be my second 12 hole! I cannot wait until it comes in the mail and I get my new babies! I have wanted a dragontooth for a while, and I have been in a deep need for a pendant. I finally feel like im breaking the surface and actually diving into the world of ocarinas!!

What you need to know before renting a car or motorbike in Phuket
Hire Cars in Phuket
There are many reputable car hire companies in Phuket, with counters at Phuket International Airport and at a few hotels around town. You can also hire cars from the many local car hire companies. The local companies are cheaper but you might prefer to go with a name you know. Car hire rates can usually be bargained, but ensure that adequate insurance cover is included in the rental agreement.
The cheapest option for renting a car are the small Suzuki jeeps that are found parked along the side of the road in busy areas such as Patong. Prices for these start at about 800 baht per day, slightly less if its low season. You should also get discounts for longer rental periods. Again make sure insurance is included.
These are required to be worn by law. You may be stopped and fined for failing to do so. The police set up checkpoints on major roads around the island to specifically check for this as well as drink driving. You have been warned. (See our section on road safety).
Should you be involved in an accident, do not take responsibility but refer everything to the insurance company, otherwise you may be personally liable for damages. It is also important not to move your car if you have been in an accident. Contact the insurance company and wait for the insurance agent or police to arrive. As odd as this may seem, and despite the fact that you may be blocking two lanes of traffic, by moving your vehicle after an accident you forfeit your insurance cover. Happily, insurance agents turn up pretty swiftly. And if you are blocking two lanes of traffic, the police should be hurrying to the scene anyway.
Although driving in Phuket is easy, you must ensure that you follow these guidelines:
- In Thailand driving is on the left side of the road, as in Australia, the UK, Singapore and numerous other countries.
- A valid International Driver's Permit (IDP) or Thai Driving License is essential. This is often not asked for by hire companies but without one you are likely to not be covered by your vehicle or travel insurance in case of an accident.
- Seat belt wearing and drink driving laws apply, and are occasionally enforced. It is not uncommon to be stopped at a road block for such checks.
- Full Comprehensive Insurance is a must. Beware of roadside "hire companies" with signs saying 'With Insurance' – usually the level of insurance coverage is very basic and may not cover damage to your car.
Hiring Motorbikes in Phuket
Always check you bike for damage before hiring it. We suggest you take a few photos of any prior damage. Motorbikes ranging from 125cc scooters to 1000cc superbikes can be found for hire in most busy beach areas. Prices start at about 150 baht per day for a 90cc Honda or Suzuki scooter.
A valid International Driver's Permit (IDP) or Thai Driving License is essential when hiring a bike. This is often not asked for by hire companies but without one you are likely to not be covered by your or travel insurance in case of an accident.
Helmets must be worn by the rider, despite the number of Thais you will see riding without one. It is not uncommon to be stopped at a road block for checks and as a foreigner you stand a much greater chance of being stopped and fined.
Insurance is often non-existent or of minimal value. In fact, there is no such thing as first-class insurance on motorbikes in Thailand, no matter what the rental shop may tell you. If you have an accident you will almost certainly be responsible for all bike repairs, all medical bills for yourself and any other involved parties. This is regardless of who was at fault. Theft is common, however most renters will supply a lock and chain if asked for one and is a wise move.
NOTE: The roads in Phuket are safe and well kept but the island does have a high accident rate so take it slowly on the hills and watch out when it rains as it gets quite slippery.

Regarding JN's "Teachers stage walkout, religious groups respond," May 2, 2018: In anticipation of the recent teacher walkouts across the Valley, I assumed I would juggle my job to be home with our daughter until the walkouts ended — but then we received an email from the Valley of the Sun JCC two days before the walkouts happened. The J was planning for the walkouts and would provide coverage for affected kids. This was such a relief! We, like most families, didn't know until the 11th hour if school would resume each day and The J was there for us and so many other families.

It's the time of year for miracles and mitzvahs, when we remember Jews in need. After all, we are commanded to give tzedakah, justice and sharing, as part of our Jewish values.
Supporting the Jewish News
If the Phoenix Jewish News goes away, how will we post notices about events? Who will publish the calendar? How will we learn about upcoming holidays, rituals and traditions? Where will we read about other Jewish communities around the world? Where will we send our announcements of birth, marriage, mitzvahs or the passing of a loved one?
More than any group, the Jewish community should demand less, not more regulation ("Needed: sensible firearm regulation," Oct. 13, Jewish News).
Interesting article on the advantages of brining chicken ("Brining: A quick way to flavor and tenderize the humble chicken breast," Oct. 6) in order to improve the flavor and tenderness.
It was with a sense of both sorrow and annoyance that the undersigned read the article in the Sept. 15 issue of the Jewish News about the spiritual and social action leaders "denouncing" the DACA decision ("Jewish spiritual and social action leaders denounce DACA decision" ). It wasn't enough to disagree with it or differ with it; it had to be "denounced."
I just finished reading the article by Arthur Blecher ("Judaism without God," Sept. 15). I could not help but feel that our values and beliefs were so close. More than a year ago, I asked the rabbi at my nephew's funeral if it were possible to be both an agnostic and a Jew. He told me it was, indeed. That is my set of values.
We were disappointed by the front page of the Sept. 22 issue of the Jewish News in which Jewish genetic disease testing by an organization outside of our local community was featured ("Genetic testing emphasized during Tay-Sachs Awareness Month.") Unfortunately, the article neglected to point out that the Jewish Genetic Diseases Center of Greater Phoenix has been doing this type of testing in our local community for many years.
I read Rabbi Shmuly Yanklowitz's article "Ask Why We Mourn on Tisha B'av" (July 28 issue of Jewish News) and was greatly disturbed.
Your editorial about the Muslims' violent reaction to the metal detectors (Jewish News, July 28) that Israel placed on the Temple Mount the other week, could have been clearer about the causes. You correctly referred to "Muslim intransigence," but the cause is deeper than that. The Mufti of Jerusalem, the highest Islamic religious authority in that area, condemned the "Zionist metal detectors." So, the problem was not the metal detectors per se, but the fact that they were placed there by Jews who were exercising a measure of Jewish sovereignty and superiority over Muslims. This is absolutely forbidden by Islam's sacred texts in which Allah commands Muslims to make war on the Jews until the Jews submit to Islamic law, and it is forbidden by Islam's prophet who commanded Muslims to make war on the Jews and kill them. These sacred texts are taught and preached in all mosques.
I hope Democrats don't turn themselves inside out over Jon Ossoff's loss in the Georgia 6th (June 20). While I'm truly sorry he lost, it was an overwhelmingly Republican district, where Tom Price won by 23 points in 2016 and the full disaster of the current Republican policies are not yet felt by most people. When the astonishingly terrible health plan is finally made public and people watch their parents, children, siblings and friends be denied health care, pay more and lose access, and they experience the full horror of President Trump's foreign policy, decimating the State Department, turning on our allies and generally trashing 70 years of American international leadership, Democrats will win in district after district if they do the ground work that is always necessary to win elections.
After Dan Schere's five-column discussion ("Is there a center in pro-Israel lobby?" June 9 issue of Jewish News), he concludes that there is no viable middle ground!
Ben Cohen's commentary "Trump crisis shouldn't mask new opportunities for Mideast peace" (May 26 issue of Jewish News) is distressing. The article spends the first six of its 13 paragraphs discussing whether we recognize the Kotel as belonging to Israel.
Supporting opposition
Why aren't Muslim countries welcoming refugees?
Interest-free loans available for special needs, disabilities
American Jews must collaborate
Editor: The article "Citing 'core beliefs,' 40 Orthodox clergy condemn Trump's 'hateful rhetoric,' Rabbi Dr. Shmuly Yanklowitz among leaders of effort" (posted on jewishaz.com, Aug. 22) made me wonder why I hear only relative silence from our Jewish leaders and rabbis when there are many slanders against Israel, our Jewish heritage and Jews, in our country and around the world?
Editor: This letter concerns the article "Jewish War Veterans group slams Trump over attacks on Muslim war hero's family" (posted Aug. 3 on jewishaz.com).
Editor: I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Jewish Community Foundation of Greater Phoenix. Our child was a recipient of their scholarship to attend summer camp.
Editor: If you are fed up, bored, tired of the 2016 election, I have some good news and some bad news. The good news, if you are a political junkie, is that the 2020 election campaign has started. The bad news is that Ted Cruz gave the first speech of the 2020 election cycle.
Editor: My family and I enthusiastically welcome the Jewish Community Foundation of Greater Phoenix's acquisition of Phoenix's 68-year-old Jewish News. Our family – my parents, Cecil and Pearl Newmark, followed by my husband Paul and me – owned and published Jewish News for 52 of those years, until my retirement in 2013, motivated always by a deep commitment to our community.
Editor: The Orthodox Jewish community in Phoenix is one that is filled with many young families. Many years before all these "newcomers," there was a man who planted and nurtured the seeds of Yiddishkeit here in Phoenix. I was recently in Brooklyn and was honored to visit with him after many years – he is Dr. Sheldon Zinn.
Editor: In the last edition, there was a picture of two men, entering into a "marriage" ("A chuppah of equality," Jewish News, June 17). The country and the state may well recognize the union of two men as a marriage, but the holy Torah is very clear on this issue. Homosexuality is termed a toeiva, an abomination. It's not open to discussion, it's an abomination, an aveira, a sin.
Editor: I had the pleasure of watching the Israel Scouts perform at Temple Chai. This was the first time I watched them perform.
Editor: I'm reaching out with profound sadness at the news of another senseless act of violence in Orlando, Florida, targeting gays and lesbians at a gay bar. But this attitude of hate and murderous action could be aimed at any group, and should cause each of us to feel personally involved in the mourning and in the resolve to find solutions to this violence.
Editor: The mass murder of gays is indeed a "hate" crime, as President Obama states. However, what he and most others do not state is the source of the hatred of gays. The source is the Quran, which clearly states followers should "throw gays off the top of the highest building." No, that is not bias or Islamaphobic talk. It is simply the truth.
Editor: We wish to address rumors within the community regarding future food service at the Valley of the Sun Jewish Community Center. We have been, and remain, committed to ensuring that all food provided by the café, catering service and future snack shack by the pool be kosher and under supervision.
Editor: Now that Passover is behind us, we are looking ahead to the worldwide Shabbos Project, which is scheduled for Nov. 11-12, 2016. It has been a great honor to run the Shabbos Project and, this year, we are stepping back. We feel it's time for new leaders.
Editor: There are three major Jewish festivals that have historical and great significance. These three holidays include Passover (Pesach). Each of the three festivals has a special relationship to events in Jewish history, with Passover commemorating the liberation of Israel from the slavery of Egypt. Passover is observed in the Diaspora by Orthodox and Conservative Jews for eight days, and by Reform Jews for seven. With the last day of Passover, Jews recall their departed kinsfolk in a memorial service for the dead.
Editor: In my 40 years in Arizona, I've not seen an important matter so confused ("Prop 123 enjoys broad support," Jewish News, April 22). Superficially, Proposition 123 seems to validate and support the Jewish community's passionate cultural commitment to education. It seems like a good deal, but we must look deeper, and the public lacks the facts to make an informed choice.
Editor: I am shocked at the recent article detailing the Jewish Federation of Greater Phoenix's allocations for this fiscal year ("Federation allocates $2.17M," Jewish News, April 15). All it takes is some rudimentary math to see that of the $5.4 million raised from the community, only a fraction of those dollars actually leaves the door of the Federation/JCC campus to help community institutions.
Editor: It is strange how in reading the editorial, "Halting conversation" and the adjoining article about Judean glass ("More than a piece of broken Judean glass," Jewish News, April 15), I was able to find a distinct connection between the two.
Editor: Two articles – "Reflections from AIPAC" and "AIPAC's plan to 'come together' comes undone" (Jewish News, March 25) – certainly caught my attention. As previously strong supporters of that organization, my wife and I had become progressively more and more discouraged by AIPAC's seeming inability to confront the Obama administration's increasingly hostile demeanor when it involved America's once important ally in the Middle East – the State of Israel.
Editor: We found the column "Reflections from AIPAC" (Jewish News, March 25) to be thoughtful, save the phrase "myopic rabbis." Many of the comments from Donald Trump are clearly an affront to Jewish values. Those rabbis were speaking out rather than sweeping racism and bigotry under the carpet.
Editor: Thank you for the excellent review of "Witness to Truth," the Holocaust exhibit at the Plotkin Judaica Museum at Congregation Beth Israel ("Exhibit features witnesses to truth," Jewish News, March 25).
Editor: This is in response to "Haredi rabbi: Kotel deal to 'limit desecration,'" (Jewish News, March 4), an article about Rabbi Avigdor Nebenzahl, former chief rabbi of Jerusalem's Old City.
Editor: Thank you for your coverage of Vice President Joseph Biden's trip to Israel and for reporting his recent condemnation of the latest horrifying attacks against Israelis that have persisted for nearly six months ("In Jerusalem, Biden criticizes those who fail to condemn terror attacks in Israel," jewishaz.com, posted March 9).
Editor: I just want to send kudos to you and to Pamela Rae Schuller for her brilliantly written inclusion article ("I'm not your mitzvah project," Jewish News, Feb. 19).
Editor: In her letter "Distortions of Israel, peace in L.A. Times" (Jewish News, Dec. 25, 2015), Ginette Weiner reported on the Jewish Voice for Peace, its hostility toward Israel and its support for the BDS (boycott, divestment and sanctions) movement.
Editor: The recent letter to the community from the Valley of the Sun Jewish Community Center/Jewish Federation of Greater Phoenix leadership ("ILJCC kosher policy response," Jewish News, Jan. 15) is yet another example of double-speak.

CHICAGO (WLS) --LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, close friends and former Miami Heat teammates, had an exchange Saturday on Twitter about a World Series wager.
@KingJames Let's talk!!! #WorldSeriesConvo— DWade (@DwyaneWade) October 23, 2016
@DwyaneWade Absolutely!! We're placing a nice bet and more on this one my friend! #WorldSeries #RallyTogether— LeBron James (@KingJames) October 23, 2016
James plays for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Wade, a Chicago native, now plays for the Bulls.
"We're both wine drinkers, so it'll probably come to that," James said Monday. "He actually has his own wine too, that will probably figure in. We both got kids, so we'll figure something out."
James and Wade finalized their bet this week. Wade posted this video message overnight:
The #WorldSeries bet is on! @DwyaneWade (@Cubs) sends @KingJames (@Indians) the official wager. pic.twitter.com/h71F22FqJA— UNINTERRUPTED (@uninterrupted) October 26, 2016
"If the Indians win the World Series, he has to wear an Indians uniform when he comes here and if the Cubs win it, I have wear a Cubs uniform when we play in the United Center," James said.
Here's what James responded with after the Cubs fell to the Indians in Game 1:
I accept @DwyaneWade!! 1-0 #RallyTogether https://t.co/zBF9RBBv8v— LeBron James (@KingJames) October 26, 2016
James said he and most of the Cavaliers planned to attend Game 2 on Wednesday night.
ABC7 Eyewitness News and the ABC affiliate in Cleveland also made a friendly World Series wager.
The morning team at News 5 Cleveland said if the Cubs defeat the Indians, they'll send "some of the most coveted Christmas ale you can find in Cleveland."
If the Indians win, ABC7 will send them lots of Chicago goodies, including Lou Malnati's pizza, Eli's Cheesecake and Vienna Beef hot dogs. Thanks to Taste of Chicago and Clark Street Sports for making Chicago's spread so impressive!

With introduction of Windows Vista early this year, we are seeing more laptops being offered at prices lower than ever. The not so favorable Vista sales may have something to do with it. We have the chance to take a deeper look into one from Gateway, the MT3705.
It offers Intel Dual Core at 1.6 GHz, yet it does not carry the Core 2 Duo name. Intel calls it "Pentium Dual Core T2060" without any information from Intel Website. This processor is being sold by many brand names aimed at mass market. Madshrimps

What is LibidoStim?
LibidoStim is a natural male enhancement product designed to safely support male sexual desire and performance. The formula has recently undergone improvements to create a more potent product with greater results.
LibidoStim is made by a company called Designs for Health, which has been creating products under a motto of "Science first" for almost 20 years.
Their location and contact information are not listed for casual visitors to the website. Perhaps these important tidbits are revealed once a prospective consumer has registered through the site.
What are the Ingredients in LibidoStim?
The product information for LibidoStim primarily focuses on the ways in which a recent reformulation has improved the supplement's performance.
Among the many tweaks, the formula now comes in a two capsule serving size, rather than the previous four. Various concentrations of certain key ingredients have been maintain, while a few ingredients have been eliminated. Currently, LibidoStim contains 400mg of a component called LongJax, 300mg of Tribulus, 200mg of Maca Root, 200mg of Chrysin, 100mg of Horny Goat Weed, 100mg Ginkgo Biloba, 100mg Muira Puama Bark, 100mb Diindolylmethane, 50mg Phosphatidyl Choline, and Microcrystalline Cellulose, Silicon Dioxide, and Vegetable Stearate.
The website does not explain the source, composition, and function of any of these ingredients. However, many of them are included in other herbal sexual enhancement products on the market.
LibidoStim costs $44 for a bottle of 60 capsules, which is a one-month supply with a dosage of two capsules per day. It is not clear if the company offers any sort of guarantee. Along with the dearth of formula explanation, LibidoStim does not present any scientific evidence or customer testimonials to demonstrate product performance.
What are the Benefits of LibidoStim?
- Reformulation shows a commitment to quality and a sensitivity to customer feedback
- Exact amounts of each ingredient listed
What are the Drawbacks of LibidoStim?
- It appears that consumers must register with the website to view full information, such as company contact details, ordering specifics, and so on
- How the product functions is unclear, ingredients are not explained
- No testimonials, scientific evidence, or money back guarantee
LibidoStim Review – The Bottom Line
While it is possible that once a consumer registers with the LibidoStim website all will be revealed and every question will be answered, there seems to be a considerable lack of important product information currently available to a potential user.
With countless male enhancement supplements available on the market today it seems impossible to find "the right one." Sexual performance declines naturally as men age, which may contribute to feelings of inadequacy or embarrassment. Male enhancement supplements should be based on four key factors: active ingredients, ability to support sexual stamina, enhance arousal, improved* sexual desire and backed by clinical studies.
Below you'll find some of the most effective male enhancement supplements on the market today, in our opinion.

Full disclosure, my grade school friends Karen Villa and Jan Junsay own the place together with another business partner Keanne Andeza, and they asked me to check the place out. I didn't want to come alone because I wanted to try several dishes to give my readers a comprehensive review. So with Jay and Kenneth in tow, I knew it was the perfect time to go.
Bodega Casa Villa is open for dinner service, which starts at 5pm. We arrived early at 6pm, as the crowd usually comes later for drinks and the live entertainment, which starts at 9pm from Tuesdays to Saturdays.
From the outside, the Filipino-Mexican (Filmex) restaurant looks like your neighborhood hole-in-the-wall, with bare cement walls, barbed wires, and a wooden gate. An old garage was converted to an al fresco dining area, where the bar is also located.
Intricately-carved wooden double doors lead to a more family-friendly dining space, decorated with yellow walls, cream tufted booths, and wooden tables and chairs. Warm lighting makes it more conducive to long meals and conversations, in contrast to the low lighting at the bar perfect for friends sharing a drink or two.
|One of the two murals at Bodega Casa Villa.
Karen and I were classmates in third grade, and I am very happy to see her as a successful chef and now, a restaurant owner. "It wasn't my plan to open a restaurant," she told me. Karen used to be a chef for the Raintree Group, which operates several restaurants in the country including Chelsea Kitchen, M Cafe, Kabila, and Rocket Room.
|I love the restaurant's plates, carefully chosen by Executive chef Karen Villa and co-owner Keanne Andeza
Next we had the Taco Trio (Php295), where you can choose three among six variants: crispy buttered ox brain, lamb adobo, beef barbacoa, chicken inasal, fish sinigang, and pork bagnet sisig.
We chose (from left) fish sinigang, beef barbacoa, and chicken inasal. They come with salsa verde, chopotle salsa, and garlic cream sauce. Even without the dips, the tacos burst with flavor and I like the beef barbacoa best. The chicken inasal with atchara is also good. I liked the crunch of the fish taco, though it needed more of the sour taste of the sinigang soup.
Kenneth ordered the Sticky Pork BBQ Ribs (Php295), which we all loved. I often try ribs in restaurants that serve them, and this one is a winner. It's sweet and tangy, the meat tender. Bodega Casa Villa's servings are generous, and their plates can be shared among 3 people if you're ordering several dishes. The BBQ Ribs come with grilled corn and cilantro rice, which was a pleasant surprise.
Jay and I split the Grilled Chipotle Lamb Chops (Php340), which comes with grilled corn and Mexican rice. This is best eaten upon serving, but because we had so much to eat, we weren't able to finish it and had the rest packed to go (like I said, huge servings).
By the time we finished our entrees, Bodega was almost filled-up, with families, couples, and friends among the mix of diners. A few days later, the restaurant hosted a girl's Frozen-themed birthday party. Four months into their operations and the joint is already becoming a Marikina neighborhood favorite.
We ended our meal with a must-try, the Boleros (Php170). They're deep-fried donut holes sprinkled with confectioner's sugar, and come with salted caramel, maple, and chocolate dips.
Guys, I can't recommend this enough! Warm and packed, this dessert immediately made it to my Ultimate Comfort Food List (together with mac and cheese, ube, pudding, and truffle cream pasta). It's the kind of food you eat with your eyes closed, and you groan with happiness because it's so good!
|Coming back for you, my loves!
Reasonable prices, top-notch food quality, and great service are what you can expect from this humble Marikina spot. Don't you just love servers who automatically refill your water glasses, and are attentive to your needs without being overbearing? I do, and Bodega's staff does just that.
Can I just also tell you quickly about their restroom? How cute is this! This is the powder area, and flanking this station are the his and hers restrooms, aptly labeled Senyor and Senyora.
|I want to take home the mirror!
|Thoughtful details extend to the restroom.
|Some food for thought while in the loo.
|Tired but full!
Lunch service is in the pipeline, as the parking situation still needs to be addressed. For now, guests can park across the restaurant and at Rey's Auto Shop.
I'm excited with how the menu will further develop, and I tip my hat to my two grade school friends who made this unexpected project a reality. Congrats Jan and Karen!
48 Dragon Street, San Roque, Marikina City
Operating Hours: Tuesdays-Sundays, 5:00PM-12:30AM

This post introduces Activities in Android and how Intents are used for any communication between activities or any other application components.
Activities are the fundamental building blocks of Android applications. An activity is an interface between the screen and the application. Activities, services, any application components must be declared in the AndroidManifest.xml file. If it is not done, the application considers that component of the application does not exist and often runtime exceptions are thrown when the application is being run.
This declaring of an activity, however, does not have to be done manually in the manifest file. But any kind of attributes associated with the activity can be added to the activity explicitly in the AndroidManifest.xml. For instance, an activity can be declared as the launcher activity (the first screen of the application that shows up on our screens as it runs) can be done by adding the line
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"></category> in the corresponding activity element in the manifest.
In any case, if an activity has to be declared manually, it can be done by creating an
<activity> element in the manifest file. Next, the name and label of the activity can be specified using android:name and android:label attributes respectively. More can be learned about its attributes at https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element.
Communicating with intents
Intents are the glue between activities. Any communication between activities happens via intent. Intent holds the necessary information needed to perform an action. An intent usually has two pieces of information – action and data. In other words, intents carry information that the system uses to determine which component to start plus the information that the recipient component uses to act to perform an action properly
Intents are of two types –
- Explicit: Explicit intents explicitly mention the component which should be called. The Java class is used as an identifier in explicit intent call.
- Implicit: In an implicit intent, the action to be performed is specified and data is optional. Based on the type of action and data, the component that fits the most is started by the system. In some cases, if multiple components fit, the user is prompted with possible options and thus the user can decide which component to use to perform the specified action.
Explicit intent example
Intent intent = new Intent(this, SecondActivity.class);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "sample text");
In the above example, the EXTRA_TEXT identifier is used as an identifier or any custom string can be used as well. The concept of key-value pairs is used when transmitting data using intents between two components. We use the same key to get the data out as the one we used to put data onto intent. getStringExtra() is used to fetch data from the intent. Intents are not just limited to sending String type data. Any basic Android data types can be transmitted between app components.
Implicit intent example
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
In the above example, an intent object is created by specifying ACTION_VIEW as what we want to do. A URL is specified in the data, since the intention is to view the website, the default browser is launched (different data could launch different apps). Intent resolution mechanism operates by matching the best intent from the installed application packages.
Complete running examples of starting a new activity from a current one using implicit intent call and switching between activities using explicit intent can be checked at https://github.com/kamalpreetgrewal/ActivityStarter and https://github.com/kamalpreetgrewal/ActivitySwitcher respectively.
More on activities like storing data persistently, returning results from an activity is coming up in the next post. Keep reading!

The talent pool for Big West baseball looks stronger than ever for the future, evidenced by the selection of five players to the 2002 Louisville Slugger Freshmen All-American team.
UC Riverside's AJ Shappi, UC Santa Barbara's Eric Posthumus, Long Beach State's Brad Davis, and UC Irvine's Matt Anderson and Glenn Swanson are the representatives on the Freshmen All-American team.
In addition, eight Big West players were tabbed Honorable Mention Freshmen All-Americans. Those eight players are the following: P Jon Koller (UC Irvine), P Jered Weaver (Long Beach State), P Brett Smith (UC Irvine), P Neil Jamison (Long Beach State), 2B Chris Malec (UC Santa Barbara), OF Josh Wyrick (Cal Poly), OF Matt Wilkerson (UC Santa Barbara) and DH R.J. Brown (UC Irvine).
The Big West had 29 players selected over two days of the Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft, with Long Beach State's Jeremy Reed the first player from the conference to be taken.
Long Beach State led all Big West schools with nine selections, including Reed, who was snatched in the second round (59th pick overall) by the Chicago White Sox. The Dirtbags had four consecutive players picked from the 12th through 17th rounds � Paul McAnulty (12th round - San Diego), Kevin Randel (13th round - Florida), Nick Covarrubias (13th round - Houston) and Chris Demaria (17th round - Pittsburgh).
Cal State Northridge junior Bill Murphy was the second Big West player grabbed off the draft board, as he was chosen in the third round (98th overall) by the Oakland Athletics. Pacific's Tim Gilhooly, UC Riverside's Chris Smith and Cal Poly's Kevin Correia were all drafted in the fourth round. In all, 10 players were selected in the first 10 rounds, and 21 of the 29 picks occurred in the first 25 rounds of the 50-round draft.
The Matadors had the second-most selections of any Big West school with seven, followed by UC Riverside with four. Cal State Fullerton had three players chosen while Cal Poly UC Irvine had two each.
Big West representatives Cal State Fullerton, Cal State Northridge and Long Beach State were ousted in NCAA Regional action to close out the 2002 season.
Long Beach State advanced the furthest of the three teams, reaching the championship game of the Stanford Regional on Sunday. The Dirtbags needed to beat Stanford twice to advance but came up short in the first game, 8-4. Cal State Fullerton, who also helped comprise the Stanford Regional as one of four ranked teams, saw its season end with a loss to Long Beach State in an elimination game. It marked the first time in the storied rivalry of the two clubs that they met in the postseason.
Cal State Northridge entered the regionals with wins in 15 of its last 17 games, but could not continue the momentum. The Matadors enjoyed a victory over Maine before dropping their next two contests against host USC and Brigham Young. However, CSN capped off the season with 41 victories, which is tied for sixth-most in school history. The Matadors also were an impressive 16-5 on the road this season.
The Dirtbags recorded 39 wins, the most for the program since notching 43 in 1998. Long Beach won 11 of its last 14 games and used the late season surge to vault from fifth to second place in the final Big West standings.
The Titans ended up in fourth place for its lowest Big West finish since 1996. However, Fullerton made its 11th consecutive trip to the NCAA Regionals and racked up its 11th straight season with 35 wins or more.
All three postseason entries spent the majority of the season ranked in the top 25. Cal State Northridge and Long Beach State were ranked No. 18 and No.. 21, respectively, in the June 3 edition of the Baseball America poll. Cal State Fullerton dropped out of the poll after a 1-5 finish to the season.
The 2002 campaign marked only the fourth time in the last 15 seasons that no Big West team reached the College World Series.
This was the 16th straight season that the Big West sent multiple teams to the postseason. It was the third time in the last four years that three Big West schools participated in postseason play.
Despite not making the postseason, Cal Poly finished in third place in the conference race with a 15-9 record and 30-29-1 mark overall. It was the highest ever showing for the Mustangs since the Big West switched to a single division in 1999. Cal Poly also tied for third in the Big West South Division in 1997.
Overall, the Big West had six teams reach at least the 30-win mark for the first time since 1992 and only the third time in league history. UC Irvine, which reinstated its baseball program after a nine-year hiatus, was in the hunt for postseason consideration heading into the final weeks of the season. The Anteaters went 33-26. Meanwhile, UC Riverside concluded its first season as a Big West and Division I member with a highly respectable 30-28 mark.
UC Santa Barbara, which lost a majority of its starters from the 2001 team that reached the postseason, struggled to a 22-33 record in a rebuilding campaign. Pacific flirted with an above .500 season but with 11 losses in its last 13 contests, ended up 26-28-1. Sacramento State garnered a 22-34 record in its final season in the Big West.
Long Beach State sophomore Abe Alvarez earned Second Team All-American honors from Collegiate Baseball today.
The 6-2 left-hander, the 2002 Big West Pitcher of the Year, went 12-2 with a 2.55 ERA during the regular season. Alvarez struck out 85 batters and walked only 26 in 95.1 innings. He led the Big West in wins and ranked second in ERA.
Alvarez is the first Dirtbag pitcher since Mike Gallo in 1999 to receive All-American laurels.
Long Beach State's Abe Alvarez was tabbed Big West Pitcher of the Year, while Cal State Northridge's Eric Verbryke collected Player of the Year honors in a vote of the conference's head coaches, announced Big West Commissioner Dennis Farrell today. Cal State Northridge's Mike Batesole was named Big West Coach of the Year as he piloted the Matadors to their first Big West title and a postseason berth.
Alvarez, a sophomore from Fontana, Calif., is 12-2 with a 2.55 ERA as the anchor of the Big West's top-ranked pitching staff. He leads the Big West in wins and ranks second in ERA and opposing batting average (.238). The 6-2 left-hander struck out 85 batters and walked 26 in 95.1 innings. Alvarez posted victories over NCAA Regional-bound clubs such as USC, Arkansas, LSU, Wichita State, Cal State Northridge and Cal State Fullerton. A recipient of Big West Player of the Week honors on Feb. 12, Alvarez racked up a career-high 13 strikeouts in a win over Arizona in March. Alvarez is the fourth Long Beach State pitcher � and the first since 1999 � to be awarded Pitcher of the Year.
Verbryke batted .335 with 14 home runs and 52 RBI during the regular season for the Big West's top home run hitting squad. The junior excelled in conference play, hitting .391 with 26 runs and 27 RBI. Verbryke ranked in the top 10 in the Big West statistics in several categories, including home runs, RBI, slugging percentage (.600) and total bases (129). The native of Santa Maria, Calif., who earned Big West Player of the Week accolades on May 20, had 18 multi-hit and 16 multi-RBI games. The 6-2 outfielder also tallied 12 stolen bases in 16 attempts.
Batesole guided Cal State Northridge to a 40-15 record and the Big West title with a 19-5 mark. In his seventh season at the Matador helm, Batesole will be taking his club to the postseason for the second time. This marks the third time during his tenure that Northridge has amassed at least 40 wins. Batesole has had the Matadors positioned in the top 25 of the polls for a majority of the season, including a current ranking of No. 15 in Baseball America.

On behalf of IFARA, Fred Schaich spoke with Carl Dieffenbach, Ph.D., about the HIV prevention research presented at this year's International AIDS Conference. Results from the HVTN 100 trial in South Africa, which tested a preventive vaccine modified specifically for that country, exceeded expectations, paving the way for a large-scale efficacy trial of the compound that will start this November. The AMP study in Germany, the Americas and Sub-Saharan Africa is testing an infusion of one broadly neutralizing antibody, VRC01, every eight weeks to learn whether this will prevent the acquisition of HIV. If it proves to be 50% effective, the vaccine might be licensed in South Africa, paving the way for more extensive clinical trials. A phase IIa safety study is looking at cabotegravir as an injectable pre-exposure prophylaxis agent. If it proves to be safe, licensing trials for that form of prevention might start within the next year. The next revolution in HIV prevention will be injectable and implantable forms of prophylaxis, Dieffenbach predicted.

It's time to get a little silly again but show a little love all at the same time. I used so many different elements in this card. I hope you enjoy it!!
Here is today's Card – Penguin Paradise
Print the following 4×6 card (JPG format) on photo paper or card stock and paste onto a card and DONE.
Or if you like the "Layered" look then print the following (also JPG format) cut out the pieces and adhere using foam squares or double sided tape.
I added another white box in case you wanted to tear your own sheet of paper for the snow.
See you tomorrow!!!!

Ground-level ozone, best known as smog, is an air pollutant seen primarily in the summer and fall which can inhibit breathing and damage respiratory systems at higher concentrations. Breathing ozone is akin to giving your lungs a sunburn: the pollutant damages healthy cells and prolonged exposure can lead to serious health impacts.
Ozone levels in Yolo-Solano are in the healthy range on most days. However, ozone and its precursors don't respect political boundaries, and emissions created within Yolo and Solano counties do affect neighboring communities, especially in the greater Sacramento region.
As such, the Yolo-Solano AQMD is included in the Sacramento Federal Non-attainment Area by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Because emissions created here impact the air quality of neighboring jurisdictions, the Yolo-Solano AQMD is responsible for helping the regional air districts meet health standards for ozone. This is accomplished through the cooperative planning efforts of the air districts within the region.
The Clean Air Act requires areas not meeting health standards to develop strategies to achieve those standards by federal deadlines. The air districts of the Sacramento region work together to develop these plans and update them as required.
Regional air quality plans contain inventories of current and projected emissions from all relevant sources as well as proposed control measures intended to reduce these emissions in order to achieve healthy air quality levels. These control measures typically come in the form of new rules or revisions to existing rules. These rules define and enforce acceptable emission limits for stationary sources. (While cars and trucks produce the majority of ozone in our area, local air districts have no regulatory authority over them. Mobile sources are regulated by the Air Resources Board)
Federal Ozone Attainment Plan
The U.S. EPA periodically reviews its air quality standards for regulated pollutants. The EPA may also revise its standards when health studies indicate that a revision is necessary to protect the most sensitive segments of the population. Each time a new standard is adopted by EPA, local air districts must prepare plans to show how the standard will be achieved by the appropriate deadline.
As a nonattainment area for the federal ozone standard, the Sacramento region is required to prepare various planning documents on an ongoing basis. These documents include Milestone Reports and Reasonable Further Progress Plans.
The Federal Clean Air Act (CAA), Part D, Section 182(b)(2) requires ozone nonattainment areas to implement reasonably available control technology (RACT) for certain categories of sources. The District's RACT analysis was approved by the District's Board of Directors on September 13, 2017.
Sacramento Regional 2008 NAAQS Attainment
The District's Board of Directors held a Public Hearing on October 11, 2017 and adopted the Sacramento Regional 2008 National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) 8-Hour Ozone Attainment and Reasonable Further Progress Plan (Plan).
The Plan geographically covers the Sacramento Federal Nonattainment Area (SFNA) which includes all of Sacramento and Yolo counties, and portions of Placer, El Dorado, Solano, and Sutter counties. Each air district in the SFNA held separate public hearings to adopt this Plan. The Plan documents how the region is meeting requirements under the Clean Air Act in demonstrating reasonable further progress and attainment of the 2008 NAAQS of 75 parts of ozone per billion.

State Triennial Plan
In July 2016, Yolo-Solano AQMD adopted its most recent Triennial Plan Update.
The Triennial Plan Update is a requirement of the California Clean Air Act of 1988. According to the Act, each air district must adopt a plan for attaining and maintaining state ambient air quality standards for ozone. The plan must be updated every three years. The original District plan was adopted in 1992. This most recent plan update covers the years 2012 -2014. The document summarizes emission trends over this time period, forecasts future emissions, and reviews efforts made by the District to improve air quality.
