Low Emissions Economy Inquiry submission
2 October 2017
TomatoesNZ and HortNZ worked together to make a joint submission to the Productivity Commission on their "Low-emissions economy inquiry", in October. The very broad inquiry asked "how New Zealand can maximise the opportunities and minimise the costs and risks of transitioning to a lower net-emissions economy".
Our submission focused on describing the challenges facing the horticulture industry, particularly indoor growing operations, in reducing carbon emissions and bearing the costs of the Emissions Trading Scheme. We emphasised that more needs to be invested in understanding and modelling horticulture emissions in NZ compared to our competitors, as well as research, development and implementation of new technology that would allow horticulture to lower emissions. We also discussed an assumption made in the inquiry paper that moving New Zealand away from animals and towards horticulture would improve the country's emissions profile: it probably would, however there are constraints in ongoing access to land, water, RMA rules and ETS costs.
Submission to Productivity Commission low-emissions economy inquiry
Industry energy and carbon data to be updated
May 2017
It is nine years since the indoor vegetables industry last measured its "carbon life cycle", or "carbon footprint", and even longer since energy use data was compiled. Last year the NZ government committed to the Paris Agreement on greenhouse gas emissions mitigation and adaptation, resulting in an extensive and ongoing review of how NZ will meet the new Paris commitments, predominantly through our Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS).
At its April meeting, the Tomatoes board agreed to fund a project that will update that data. This will be done by asking growers to answer a few survey questions. We have also supported a bid for MPI funds from the Sustainable Land Management and Climate Change fund. This project is to better understand energy related greenhouse gas emissions in horticulture. This project is outlined in this month's Vegetables New Zealand column.
It is important that we have up to data so that we can advocate on the industry's behalf, as well as understand where industry can continue to improve its emissions profile.
Emissions subsidy phase-out is underway
15th March 2017
Greenhouse growers may notice that their ETS costs go up this winter.
The one-for-two emissions trading scheme subsidy, which meant that businesses paying Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) costs on their fuel only paid one emissions unit for every two tonnes of carbon they emit, began its phase-out from 1 January this year. That is when the previous 50% unit cost increased to 67%. It will rise to 83% from 1 January 2018. All sectors in the ETS will pay the full market price from 1 January 2019. The phase out was announced in May last year following the first stage of a review of the ETS.
For now, greenhouse tomato, cucumber and capsicum growers can still apply for a "free allocation" of emissions units under the industrial allocations scheme for "emission intensive and trade exposed" sectors. Applications for the free units must be made by 30 April each year. Contact firstname.lastname@example.com if you need more information about applying.
According to Hon Paula Bennett, the Minister for Climate Change Issues, the second stage of the review "will set a clear long-term direction on how the ETS will help meet our ambitious emissions reduction targets". Recommendations from that stage of the review are expected mid-2017.
Submissions made on the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) review
Stage Two of the 2015/16 ETS review
15 May 2016
HortNZ, TNZ, VNZ Submission to Stage two of the 2015-16 ETS review
At the end of April we made a submission on the second (and last) stage of the 2015-16 review of the NZ Emissions Trading scheme.
Some of the points in our submission:
- That significantly higher carbon prices will have a significant impact on South Island growers, likely making some operations uneconomic;
- That there are currently no options for alternative fuel sources for those South Island greenhouse growers;
- Free allocations should be retained at least until potential competitors are facing the same carbon costs as NZ growers;
- A price ceiling should be retained (currently $25) for NZU's, to provide certainty and prevent price spikes;
Price certainty is important to producers so that rational business decisions can be made.
Stage One of the review
HortNZ, TomatoesNZ and Vegetables NZ submission to the ETS review, Feb 2016
ETS Review discussion document
In February, Horticulture New Zealand, TomatoesNZ, and Vegetables NZ made a joint submission on the New Zealand Emissions Trading Scheme Review 2015/16.
The Ministry for the Environment (MfE) announced the review in the lead-up to the 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Paris, in December last year.
That conference established a new international climate change agreement, the "Paris Agreement", which will apply after 2020. The New Zealand government had already announced in July that it was strengthening its target, to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 30 per cent below 2005 levels by 2030.
The MfE 2015/16 review discussion document admitted that; "New Zealand's new 2030 target is more ambitious than previous obligations. There will be costs achieving it, and as far as possible, these costs should fall on those responsible for the emissions rather than the general taxpayer. A key role of the NZ ETS is to transfer these costs to emitters."*.
This round of submissions commented on the government's "priority issues:
1. Moving to full surrender obligations
2. Managing the costs of moving to full surrender obligations.
All fruit and vegetable growers pay some "carbon cost" through the imposition of tradable "New Zealand Units" (NZU's), on transport fuels, stationary energy and industrial processes, which add to the costs of producing, packaging, and transporting produce.
However, covered crops face the greatest carbon costs of the sector, when they pay for greenhouse heating via fuels including coal and natural gas. For the greenhouse vegetable industry including fresh tomatoes, capsicums and cucumbers, energy is the second highest single input cost in greenhouse expenses following closely behind wages. In climate controlled greenhouses (excluding those houses that either do not heat or only have frost control) energy costs are around 20% of expenses, or between 15% to 18% of revenue, making them highly vulnerable to rising energy costs and additional energy related taxes. Because the vast majority of fruit and vegetable growers sell in a global commodity market, additional costs due to the ETS cannot be passed on to the consumers of the produce, instead incurring a direct net loss to the business. In most cases there is no commercially viable alternative fuel source available to reduce emissions and ETS obligations.
Moving to full surrender obligations
A "one for two" surrender obligation (one emission unit required to be surrendered per two tonnes of emissions) was introduced in 2010 as part of a "transitional phase" to moderate the impact of the NZ ETS during the worldwide economic downturn. This was designed to halve the carbon cost impact.
As New Zealand currently has a closed carbon market, moving to "full surrender" would increase the cost of carbon in a way that bore no relation to the carbon prices of our key trading partners, at the expense of our horticultural producers and export competitiveness.
HortNZ, TNZ and VNZ Inc. position is that removing the transition measures while there is still a lack of international action would place an unreasonable burden on growers who are unable to pass on or reduce the costs, and the measures should be retained until there is more evidence of international alignment.
Managing the costs of moving to full surrender obligations
One way that the costs of the ETS on covered crops producers has been mitigated by the government, is through "free allocations" of NZU's under the Emissions Intensive Trade Exposed (EITE) scheme. All fresh tomato, capsicum and cucumber growers can apply for the allocation, and in 2014 fifty growers did so (down from 83 in 2011 when covered crops were first included). The scheme is supposed to compensate growers for most, but not all of their expected ETS costs. Fresh tomato growers can apply for 73 units per 100 tonnes per year, fresh capsicums 106 units and cucumbers 99 units.
The "free allocation" was extended indefinitely as part of the 2009 "transitional phase". The Government has said that it supports keeping the free allocation regime in place until at least 2020, to retain those businesses' international competitiveness while carbon pricing is still not widely applied internationally.
Growers who have taken part in this scheme have told me that it can be a bit of an administrative headache. Many are "banking" their NZU's, and have not attempted to trade them, especially given the low current price.
There is also some frustration among growers that the "free allocation" is based not on actual carbon costs to a business but on production.
MfE are asking for feedback on the "free allocations" scheme and other ETS issues in April, and we will be making a submission.

Bipartisan Majority Urges House Leadership to Preserve Cash Method of Accounting
September 25, 2014
A bipartisan majority of the U.S. House of Representatives – 233 members – recently signed a letter urging the House leadership to preserve the cash method of accounting for tax purposes, writing that proposals requiring a transition to the accrual method "will have a severely detrimental impact on thousands of businesses in our districts."
In August, a similar Senate effort gained the backing of 46 members of that chamber.
The House effort was led by Representatives Brad Schneider (D-Ill.), Richard Hudson (R-N.C.), Mike Quigley (D-Ill.) and Blaine Luetkemeyer (R-Mo.).
"Those who use the cash method of accounting include many of our local job creators and professionals including accountants, architects, attorneys, dentists, engineers, farmers, physicians and financial service professionals," the legislators explained in a September 11 letter to Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and other members of the House leadership. "Importantly, the cash method of accounting is the foundation upon which these businesses have built their business models for decades."
The American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) is a leading opponent of recent congressional efforts to limit the use of cash accounting by pass-through entities, personal services corporations, and individuals who exceed $10 million in annual gross receipts. Under current law, these taxpayers are generally permitted to use the cash method of accounting without a gross receipts test. The AICPA partnered with state CPA societies and CPA firms to help secure the support and signatures of lawmakers on both sides of Capitol Hill.
"While we believe reforms to the tax code should provide a simpler and fairer tax system, requiring the use of the accrual method for entities currently using the cash method will not achieve these goals," the House letter concluded. "As we seek to best represent the concerns of the constituents in our districts, we strongly urge you to preserve the cash method of accounting."
The House and Senate efforts signal solid bipartisan opposition to retention of an accrual accounting mandate in either chamber's tax reform proposals.
"Colleagues from state CPA societies and our members have been instrumental in this effort," said AICPA President and CEO Barry C. Melancon, CPA, CGMA. "Thanks to them, more than half of the House and nearly half of the Senate – from both parties and every state – have voiced their opposition to a proposal that unfairly penalizes CPA firms, among other businesses. The accrual accounting mandate is bad tax policy that should be abandoned by the House and Senate."
For more information about the issue and the AICPA's efforts, see the topic page on the AICPA website.

When it comes to wildlife one-upmanship you can always rely on Kicheche Laikipia to steal the high ground.
Spotted hyena dens are just so last year at 1900 metres – a striped family with pups active way beyond the eight a.m. bedtime is far harder currency. This crèche caper not enough for you, fret not: someone let the dogs out early and they bounded across the outside courts before taking on an adversary with a far higher seeding in the shape of a fully adult male warthog.
Tactics, approach and ambition will only get you so far, class will out in the end. The wild cards wanted to go the whole hog but the prey sent down a volley of snorts and sent them packing. A potential breakfast became a complete dog's dinner, they had to pig out elsewhere.
No fat cat empty debenture seats, no over-priced refreshments, just a couple of vehicles that didn't even to queue long until the action sizzled.

ASP.NET 5 Docker Orchestration Todo App
Microsoft released ASP.NET docker image a couple of weeks ago and I wrote a post on how easily we can deploy any of the base sample apps, using the base container. In this post, I will show you how easily you can build, orchestrate and push a Todo app, using asp.net MVC 6, angularJS, and mongoDB to CoreOS using docker containers with hipops. You can find the finished code here.
Today with asp.net vNext, we can start thinking about building small pluggable applications. In this demo, we are building a standalone
ConsumerAPI MVC 6 Web API app that is using
mongoDB for data persistence. vNext allows us to easily define the
mongoDB connection string at the runtime using environment variables, which means we can start an independent
mongoDB docker container and attach that to the web API at the runtime. In addition, I prefer using a standalone project that just serves static html for front-end UI
ConsumerWeb and to connect that back to our Web API. This way, we are building another small pluggable static nginx docker container that helps us build a more distributed application. In the future, we could even take this architecture further with the the addition of logging and messaging queue containers that will allow us to build more distributed and OS agnostic applications.
ASP.NET MVC 6 API.Consumer (Todo API)
ASP.NET has a lot of good articles about building MVC 6 Web API. Our Todo API is not that much different with the exception of adding
mongoDB connection strings. vNext allows us to define a
config.json and override that at the runtime. Here is what our
config.json looks like.
"MONGO_CONNECTION": "mongodb://172.17.8.101:9990",
"MONGO_DB_NAME": "aspnet_demo"
Since our
Startup.cs is hooking up environment variables after
public Startup()
Configuration = new Configuration()
We can overwrite this connection string by setting the environment variable.
MONGO_CONNECTION=mongodb://MY.IP k kestrel
AngularJS Web UI with node, bower, grunt
Our front-end is supposed to be a dummy static HTML built with angularJS that connects back to our API. Since we are running the API and Web UI in different domains, we need an organized way to map our API inside of the Web UI. I have included a
app/data/url.json that is supposed to be the map for all HTTP requests. By default it's always pointing to our Development environment.
"domains": {
"consumer": "@@http://localhost:5004",
"admin": "http://api.admin"
"endpoints": {
"consumer": {
"todoFind": {
"method": "GET",
"url": "/api/todo/{id}"
"todoDelete": {
"method": "DELETE",
"url": "/api/todo/{id}"
"todoCreate": {
"method": "POST",
"url": "/api/todo"
"todoUpdate": {
"method": "PUT",
"url": "/api/todo"
When building
dist minified packages, we can simply override backend API by adding an environment variable for
DOMAINS_API=http://aspnet-todo-demo-api.com grunt serve:dist
Docker Orchestration
hipops is a Docker Orchestration tool based on a JSON Configuration. The idea behind hipops configuration is to define a scenario that have series of apps and re-uses them in playbooks, so you just focus on the orchestration of your containers, whether across different physical hosts or the same host. You can find the finished scenario code here. Let's take a look at what our JSON configuration looks like for the todo app.

"containers": [{
"params": "--name nginx-proxy -v /var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock -p 80:80 -d aminjam/nginx-proxy:tiny"
We are defining 3 apps for this demo,
consumerAPI, and
consumerWeb. Playbooks are what we are using for the orchestration of our environment.
- Run the
- Deploy the
- Deploy the
- Run the
nginx-proxyfor DNS routing
hmm, how do I run it?!
If you have installed hipops you just need to have
core-01 vagrant machine configured for deploying all of the apps.
hipops exec -plugin ansible -private-key ~/.vagrant.d/insecure_private_key -playbook-path /PATH/TO/hipops-playbooks/ansible
After the orchestration has ran, set your hosts files for the configured Hosts entries in the
172.17.8.101 aspnet-todo-demo-api.com
172.17.8.101 aspnet-todo-demo-web.com
Visit http://aspnet-todo-demo-web.com for your todo app demo.
If you don't have
hipops installed you can deploy using the hipops-ansible docker container without any installation.
docker run -v <path-to-here>:/home/app -v <git-key-file>:/home/git.key -v <ssh-private-key-file>:/home/vagrant.key -e GIT_KEY=/home/git.key -e PRIVATE_KEY=/home/vagrant.key -d aminjam/hipops-ansible
If you are ready to deploy to AWS instead, it will be as easy as switching your inventory file and using AWS private key.
hipops exec -plugin ansible -private-key /PATH/TO/AWS.pem -playbook-path /PATH/TO/hipops-playbooks/ansible -inventory /PATH/TO/EC2.py
hipops is a wrappper around
ansible for simplified docker orchestration. If you don't use
ansible, you can replace this demo orchestration for kubernetes or even run the docker run commands manually.
In this post, we built a todo app for asp.net vNext using
mongoDB for data persistance, and deployed the stack of containers to a local CoreOS VM, using a hipops scenario and once we verified the build, we pushed that stack of docker containers to AWS or any other cloud providers.

GLOSSOP is top of the 'special' cops, according to Derbyshire Police.
Officers say the town has the best team of special constables in the county - 13 regularly out on the beat. And although the volunteer bobbies only need to give a minimum of four hours a week, Glossop specials have been going above and beyond the call of duty to clamp down on crime in the area.
Inspector Tony Dales, of Derbyshire's Community Intelligence Unit, said: "We have the best team in the county with 13 who are active in working in the community and providing support for our police officers.
"We even have specials who turn out on a Friday and Saturday night for up to eight hours at a time and stay at the sides of officers dealing with disturbances in the town centre.
"This is fantastic for us. Having more uniformed people there gives extra support and confidence to the officers and it also acts as a stronger deterrent."
He added: "Specials are vital in helping us and also free us up to focus on the high visibility patrols and responding to calls which provides a better service for the people of Glossop."
Police manned an information stand at Tesco on Saturday as part of a county-wide recruitment drive for specials. Although officers say the response was good, anyone interested can still get in touch as the door is always open.
Applicants need to be 18-50, physically fit and able to spare at least four hours each week. Successful candidates will be asked to take an aptitude test, complete a medical questionnaire and must be of good character.

AFRU Gallery and Severe Enterprises launches the 4th annual "Byte Me," a showcase of technological art this Friday at AFRU Gallery (534 SE Oak). Like the three previous Byte Me exhibits, all pieces are interactive works that rely on the use of digital technology. This year's exhibit, curated by Carlos Severe Marcelin, again features works, big and small, that bend the senses and challenge the mind:
"ForeverScape" by Vance Feldman. The live music of organic DJ duo TIPOL project motion and life into an enormous illustration painting that involves hundreds of drawings spanning the walls.
"Church of Robotron Altar" by The Church of Robotron is a mobile training facility that uses hazardous environments, religious indoctrination, and emotional triggers to promote the development of the skills necessary to survive in a hostile, post-human environment.
"Pixel Basilica" by Libby White is an interactive exploration of cellular automata patterns inspired by the process of converting sand into silicon wafers, and wafers into web sites.
"plin.co" by John Brown is an interactive projection mapping, based on the classic Price is Right game.
"Magic Window" by Josh Michaels and Hal Bergman portrays interactive, time changing views of cities and nature built using time lapse photography.
"Purple Stars" by Grant Keltner. An interactive swirl of color and light.
"Mustache Mayhem" by Joe Grand. Based on the short-lived Nintendo Virtual Boy video game console, this piece lets you overlay virtual mustaches onto real-world faces.
"Shimmer" by Julie Rall. An elegant, interactive light box.

RALEIGH, North Carolina (WTVD) --Exactly two years after three students were murdered in Chapel Hill, their family and friends are honoring their memory with the opening of the "Light House."
An open house was held for the media Friday. Organizers will hold a public event at 7 p.m. at the Tarboro Road Community Center. They'll then walk across the street to the house.
The southeast Raleigh home on North Tarboro Street serves nonprofits as an incubator for the organizations and by providing office space. "The Light House Project" also provides financial support to some nonprofits.
Deah Barakat, his wife, Yusor Abu-Salha, and her sister Razan were killed at a Chapel Hill apartment complex in 2015.
Barakat owned the home and was renting it out to help pay for his tuition.
Family and friends restored it and called it the "Light House" because Deah means light in Arabic.
Remembering Deah, Yusor and Razan. Your love and your example continues to inspire us. #OurThreeWinners— Carol Folt (@ChancellorFolt) February 10, 2017
"We decided that the best way to help youth programs, as was my brother's dream, and the best way to kind of be able to support the different types of programs would be to offer an incubator for nonprofit programs so we offer fiscal sponsorship and office space to faith-based programs targeting the youth," said Deah's brother, Farris Barakat.
Barakat said two faith-based nonprofits are using the home. He said they hope other nonprofits utilize the house. It is open to organizations of all faiths. Nonprofits should reach out to The Light House Project for more information.
Deah Barakat, 23, was a UNC dental student. Yusor, 21, graduated from NC State and was about to join him at the dental school. Razan, 19, attended NC State.
The couple's neighbor, Craig Hicks, is accused of killing them in what investigators say may have been a dispute over parking at the complex.
A judge ruled in April of 2015 that prosecutors can seek the death penalty against the 46-year-old. He's been charged with three counts of first-degree murder and is being held at a state prison in Raleigh pending trial.
There have been several continuances and it is unclear when the death penalty trial will begin.
Barakat's family says the murder was a hate crime against the Muslim students.
The US Attorney's Office of the Middle District of North Carolina is still trying to determine whether it qualifies as a hate crime.
The home displays these powerful words by Martin Luther King Jr:
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness. Only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that."
Barakat's friends and family say the home carries on Deah's legacy.
"I think that he would happy to see all the work that has been done in his name," said Noreen Elnady, a family friend.
"I definitely think he'd be proud," said Farris Barakat.

"It's hard to be a woman, you must think like a man, act like a lady, look like a young girl, and work like a horse." A friend of mine sent me this quote and I couldn't resist to have it made into a wall decal! This quote fits so many of my girlfriends and is fitting for an office, girl's bedroom, or a "woman cave." I love it! The largest size will come in more than one piece for easier application.

How Do You Decide What To Shoot?
Photography Categories – Landscapes – Sports – People – Commercial – Weddings – Still Life/Studio – Stock
Some people when starting out in photography have an idea or particular passion that they wish to follow. You may already be involved in the fashion or sports industry and may well wish to continue but to also incorporate your photography somehow.
For most of us, it is just the passion that drives us and the willingness to photograph anything and everything to try and emulate the beautiful images that we see everywhere. Or it may be to simply stamp our own individual photographic style on a particular subject.
With time you will find that 2 or 3 subjects start to take prominence as you may gain interest in that area anyway. Animal wildlife, for example, is a favourite for many people although it is actually a subject quite difficult to break into due to the time constraints, finances and travel factors involved.
Going through each subject in turn, I will give you my own personal take with any tips along the way. I will keep it to a minimum as in all fairness each subject requires its own separate book to really do it justice.
If I am able, I will link to any websites that are of particular use for each area.

Childbirth is nothing short of a miracle and can be a life altering experience for a lot of women. But for some, pregnancy can be quite distressing as well in this century, where the mother would have to choose whether or not to pursue the career she was in to or whether her partner would be supportive enough to help her cope with the change well. And unplanned pregnancies within as well as outside of marriage can be particularly stressful due to the sudden set of responsibilities it comes with when you are not ready in the former case and unwanted guilt and shame due to being looked down upon, facing the society where single parenting has not been easy in the ages and the distresses like finance, support etc are likely to tag along. There could be a lot of guilt associated with it as well, for example, when it comes to not choosing the motherhood, delaying it, or inability to give full attention to their newborn due to career demands. By keeping a positive and rational outlook towards life decisions like for instance, thinking about how to cope or bring the best out of the change we are being introduced to, in this case motherhood, by discussing it with people who have had an experience with the same or sharing your concerns with your partner or seeking help from someone who could listen to your concerns without being critical about how your thinking process, we are better able to handle such stressful situations by receiving an insight about things that are unknown to us or things which we anticipate might happen to us, say for instance, anticipations about quitting a job after being a mother can be discussed with a working mother. Changes are handled best when they are embraced.

Two Blad Eagles in a tree across from the river behind my house here in Timberville Virginia. This tree is dead and sits across the Shenandoah River which runs behind my property. Eagles sitting high in this tree have a great view that overlooks farmland for small animals and the river for fish. I have to stand still for hours waiting, hoping they come while I am there. If I move around too much they will fly away; they are not used to being close to people! No matter how long I wait I find it worthwhile and relaxing. Just to be out in nature is life rewarding within its self. It is always a hit and miss waiting for them to arrive. The distance from where I set up to the eagles perch is roughly seventy yards. Wildlife such as this is a joy to photograph and you have to be quick and have good equipment to get decent photos. Eagles are birds of prey. They are powerful, beautiful and majestic. I can see why they are our nations symbol. To catch them landing and taking off is a joy and a c...

IANAL but I'd say a wiki @apache.org is clearly an ASF property, so I don't see how someone could contribute content there and later claim that the ASF is not allowed to use that content in whatever way we want. Anyway, I agree that requesting an iCLA is good for regular wiki contributors. And it makes things easier when those folks become committers ;-) -Bertrand

"Why's that broad do anything? 'Cause a pocket full of posies told her to." ~ The Joker
The first issue of Batman: The Widening Gyre was released this week. I wasn't exactly sure what role Poison Ivy played in this series or if she appeared at all. Well, let's just say I saw more of Poison Ivy than I ever expected -- yikes!
The Widening Gyre is a Kevin Smith project. Smith is better known for his screenwriting, directing, and acting efforts. Years ago, Kevin Smith began writing for many of the major comic book houses (to mixed reviews). That leads us to this current DC Comics mini-series.
I must confess, I've read very little of his comic book work. Though I did attempt to collect his Spider-man/Black Cat mini-series but gave up after extended delays. Honestly, I only bothered because I enjoyed the work of Rachel and Terry Dodson.
After seeing the initial preview pages at the DCU Blog I was mildly intrigued. (The preview pages contained no Poison Ivy material) Upon getting my copy I flipped the pages forward to the Arkham Asylum story. It begins with Batman and Nightwing in Bludhaven. They've discovered a body that has been mutilated by plant roots. Naturally, the assumption is that Poison Ivy murdered the man in question. Batman speedboats his way to Arkham Asylum and stumbles upon the building covered in roots and vines.
He axes his way through Arkham and passes many of the rogues trapped in their cells. Batman eventually discovers Poison Ivy lurking about the courtyard. Ivy has retreated there because Etrigan the Demon is running amok and feasting on human flesh. If you want the finer details I suggest you pick up a copy -- because I'm about to focus on what caught my attention the most. The quite bizarre characterization of Poison Ivy.
I'm going to do this in list form. There's so many things to point out I can't think of a better way to say as much.
1. I was quite taken aback by the manner in which she is first seen. Poison Ivy is floating in a vine sling -- topless, spread eagle, and in a most porn-like pose. When Batman declines to explore her "jungle" (as she puts it) Ivy threatens to masturbate herself instead. What!? Everyone knows that Poison Ivy is a seductress but she's never traded in such tramp like behavior. I've always considered Ivy to be a master at the art of tease. It's the difference between burlesque and stripping. Of course she wears sexy costumes but she's never put it all out there in this manner. I absolutely do not approve of this adolescent fanfic portrayal. Ick.
2. Poison Ivy gets Batman stoned. Again -- totally stupid fanboy fantasy nonsense. What's hotter than a naked chick? A naked chick with a bong. Right?
3. I can't believe that Smith created the idea that Poison Ivy slathers herself in patchouli. Batman even refers to it as her "signature scent". Most people associate the word patchouli with stinking hippies. No thanks.
4. Ivy is wearing a belt of thorns against her naked skin. I haven't the faintest idea whether or not this was supposed to be a slight against the crucifixion story. But how else are you supposed to interpret a ring of thorns placed tightly against the skin causing it to bleed. Because Ivy is bleeding at the waist. Tacky and weird.
There's also a scene with Killer Croc that gave me the creeps. When Batman confronts Poison Ivy she releases a sea of pheromones to disarm him. Killer Croc happened to be in the general area and falls under her spell. He charges in and attacks Batman because Bats is trying to "get up in his kool-aid". Seriously. And the entire time they battle Batman is giving narration about how Croc's skin condition is caused by HPV -- better known as genital warts.
Egads! This whole affair leaves me numb. I'm never comfortable when writers are handed Poison Ivy and they immediately toss her into the slut box. (Oooh, green boobies!) It's unimaginative and lazy. Frankly, it's disrespectful to the character and her fans. I'm a completest so this book is going in my back issues collection. But I'll be sure to give it the stink eye on occasion.
Also, the promotional image for this book never appears.

Batman: The Widening Gyre #1 (Review)

I get what your saying, as I feel Smith went a little too far with the weed jokes. Don't get me wrong; I'm all for it in his movies. That's where you expect them to be, but dude, not in Batman! I do have to admit some of the drug stuff is something that Ivy may or may have dabbled in the past, but that would be geared more for a "after hours" special, than the regular book. Even you have to admit though that Ivy is sexy as hell here, but yeah she's written more in the porn sense than the regularly restrained sexy manner she's normally portrayed in. Smith has openly admitted to being stoned when writing for comics lately, so there you go.
- May 3, 2011 at 6:32 AM
This comic I want, but it makes me sad.
It's just...no. That's taking Poison Ivy and turning her from Dita Von Teese to Jenna Jameson.
She's sexy, a vamp a tease and seductive, yes. But she's CLASSY in how she does it!
She's dangerous because it's not guratneed you get her affections easily, you have to EARN it, and even then you might only get a kiss of death!

Protester douses himself in petrol
"HI guys - if I don't make it out of this alive thanks for all your support over the years - please help out *** and the kids with the future."
That's the intimidating post a man put on Facebook as he engaged in a tense standoff with police in Canberra.
After more than two hours, discussions with police negotiators caused Harry Longworth to end his protest and hand himself over on his own volition shortly after 2.40pm AEDT.
Police immediately moved to search and secure his vehicle.
Longworth began his protest by parking his four-wheel drive on a median strip on Anzac parade between two office buildings. A large number of police and a fire truck responded.
"It's the petrol that the nice people are most worried about," the man had posted on Facebook during the early stages of the standoff, adding that police negotiators had put on bulletproof vests before attempting to speak with him.
"Doesn't look like they're going to let me sit and do my hunger strike."
He claimed to be protesting a threat against his children and warned he was prepared to take his own life.
"Situation with an ex employee and NSW police has led to an impasse ... I have high hopes for a resolution - AFP are being very friendly," he posted in response to Facebook comments of concern.
Authorities have blocked off Anzac Parade where the man is sitting next to a vehicle with several containers of petrol.
More details will be added as they come to hand.
Station sergeant Jason Kennedy confirmed Mr Longworth had been taken back to the city police station.

Must have!
That's is amazing! I have several other 6 pack lunch bags but this one is my favorite. I use this for work, where I spend 12+ hours a day. I was looking for a bag that encompassed everything I need for work, which I was using 3 different bags for. Now I only have to carry this bag and still have more room. It's nice on the shoulder as well. Highly recommend this bag!

In this day and age of over-easy application processes through job boards and otherwise, you need to have a good CV to stand out. You may have the charm of George Clooney and the wit of Billy Connolly, and you would wow them at interview – but you're not having an interview. Why? Because your CV has the charm of Gordon Brown and the wit of Piers Morgan.
I see 50-100 CVs every day. I am qualified to tell you what constitutes a good CV.
So I'm going to tell you what works, and what doesn't in the most crucial part of your CV. It's too competitive out there at the moment for shabby CV writing. You want the agency or the employer to interview you, because you're a star, a prospect, a perfect match for crying out loud!!! Well read on. Otherwise, your CV could be going this way…
Let's start with fundamental layout. We live in a Web age. People in agencies and HR departments are time-restrictive and read CVs at a lightning speed rate these days, so you have capture their attention early. Furthermore, over 75% of CVs will be read on a computer screen. I read yesterday that Websites have a 15 second `attention capture` time. I reckon CVs have 10 seconds. So some visual aspects of SEO optimisation apply to CVs.
It's time to Optimize your CV! – Anyone who has had CV advice from me in recent times will remember that these are the three things I want to see on your CV in the first 10 seconds, or before I click my mouse to scroll…. or not.
OK – start with your name at the top. Clearly. Don't let it disappear under an unnecessary `Personal Details` section. Put your name in bold or capital text at the top, announce yourself goddammit! You're proud of the information you are about to deliver. Naturally a few contact details will come underneath this, but she should be in smaller text – as frankly they are pretty insignificant at this stage – but need to be up there – because you would like someone to call you!
Please, please, please don't distract the CV reader with date of birth, driving licence details, nationality, marital status and parental responsibilities at this stage of your CV. Stick them at the end because they are insignificant, and frankly you are wasting CV Optimization space.
Tell me in a short paragraph what you do. Don't tell me this in a long paragraph, as I bore quickly. This is called a Profile or a Summary. They are essential. I reckon a 3 or 4 line paragraph should cover it, whether you are 21 years old or 61 years old. Tell me what you do, with what areas of expertise, and and how good you are doing these things.
In this paragraph, think about the key words.Think of the industry you are in, the scope of skills your ideal employer is looking for, based on key words – and include them in the Profile, and bold them. So for Social Media Marketing, your Profile might include bold text key words such as `Social Media`, `Marketing`, `Copywriting`, `Blogging`, `Community`, as some brief examples.
The reason for this? – well always think about your audience, and what they want to see. If they are giving you 10 seconds, and the role is for a Social Media Account Manager, they are going to want to see early tangible evidence that this is your field. CV Optimization in action.
If you're a graduate – the same applies. Show me you are not just another graduate. Tell me the relevance of your application, early.
DO NOT include nothingness like… `Team Player`, `Works to set tasks`, `Outgoing personality`, etc, etc. they are pointless, because everyone is saying the same rubbish. Your CV is personal. Make it so.
Your job. Now. You know, the one in the career you referred to in your Profile. You've told me what you're great at being, I now want to know where, for how long, and who with. Proof Please. The company needs to be clear and bold, and the job title needs to be clear and bold.
10 seconds are now up. You've either got me or you haven't. Now. If you were relevant, you have got me and I'm scrolling. If you didn't – you could be gone.
After that, I want you to briefly summarize that company in a short paragraph – to clarify relevance. Then tell me your main responsibilities in 5 to 10 bullet points – don't write your job spec, please – and then I want to see your achievements in 3 or 4 more bullet points. Relevant achievements, please. I really don't to know you improved the computer wiring system behind your desk.
If you're a graduate and you don't have experience to sing about, but you have a fab degree – then mirror this for your degree. Tell me about your degree and the things you focussed on, learnt, and applied in dissertation or internships. Don't just write: Kingston University: 2:1 in Political Science. I need to know more.
So that's the first 10 seconds and the first job sorted, and no more than the first two-thirds-page of your CV. You do the above well, I'm reading on. You do it badly. Then this is your where your CV in typical hands could be heading…
Don't take any risks.
I would almost argue that you have done enough to be shortlisted already, based on the 10 second theory. But it's not over there. Keep the remainder of your CV consistent with this, and do not give too much page time to jobs that are irrelevant to your current search. Time given to individual jobs on CVs should be based on their recency and their relevance.
Do NOT be told that you must keep your CV to 2 pages. This is tosh, and means you might compromise important content in a career of more than 10 years. But I would advise that it doesn't need to be more than 3 pages, unless you are a creative giving examples/links of your work.
My last point, is DO NOT DIVIDE OPINION. Your CV is NOT the place to be controversial; either by design or by content. Unless you need to demonstrate graphic or creative flair Stick to reasonably tried and tested visual protocol. And if you choose to add art or style, make it understated and not distracting from the 10 second content. If you want to create a Web CV – do one separately, on a web page – and provide the link on your CV early on, along with any social media profiles or online presence. Keep the writing positive and interesting, but do not offer opinions or feelings.
Do not under-estimate the value of capturing attention early. We've heard SEO people tell us about website optimization, key words, positioning, etc, so many times for years now. It's time we considered CVs in the same way.
Hey, I'm a good independent recruiter – more often that not, it is my responsibility to dig way deeper than the first 10 seconds, because I have a responsibility to discover what more is on your CV and if I can help you. But the general world, and the the general recruiter world – is not like that.
Remember the first 10 seconds: Who are You? What Do You Do? and Where Have You Done It?

A JEALOUS woman attacked a blonde when she saw her on a night out with her ex-boyfriend, a court heard yesterday.
Mother-of-one Debbie Davies, 27, allegedly attacked Claire Allen with a bottle because she still had feelings for former lover Paul Taylor.
Prosecutor Jane Rowley said Miss Allen was left with a 2cm gash to her forehead after the attack.
She said, "Debbie Davies was in a serious nine-year relationship with Paul Taylor and the couple had a son together.
"But in November last year the relationship broke down and the following month Mr Taylor commenced a relationship with Claire Allen.
"In April Miss Allen and Mr Taylor decided to have a night out and went to a rugby club.
"They saw Davies standing in the bar area with some friends. It was the first time she had seen her ex-boyfriend Mr Taylor whom she still had feelings for.
"She said to Mr Taylor, 'Get her out of here or she's going to have it.'
"The pair started fighting and Davies hit Miss Allen with a Reef-type bottle leaving her with a cut to the forehead."
Miss Allen told the court how she became involved in the cat-fight after Davies lunged for her throat.
She said, "Davies came at me and grabbed my throat with her hand. I hadn't said a word to her or done anything. I hit out at Davies and then there was a struggle. I punched her as a reaction.
"We grabbed each other's hair and fell down. I heard a thud and I felt something wet - I was bleeding."
Cardiff Crown Court heard how Mr Taylor who now lives with Miss Allen in Tredegar, tried to break up the fight at Abertillery Rugby Club - but couldn't tear the women apart.
Miss Allen was taken to Nevill Hall Hospital in Abergavenny and was treated for the wound with five stitches.
Davies, of Abertillery, denies wounding with intent.
The trial continues.

This weekend's meal takes us to the bottom corner of Port of Spain, in
Chinese-style chicken is a dish you can find all over Trinidad and within the diaspora that has followed the nation's emergence from British rule. The skin is fried into a lacquered mahogany. The meat beneath it tastes of five-spice, ginger and soy and is generally accompanied by a hum of oyster sauce mixed with the zing of the pickled Scotch-bonnet-pepper sauce that is seemingly omnipresent on the island's tables.
The dish pays faint, mongrelized homage to the Chinese indentured servants who came to Trinidad in the 19th century to cut cane and harvest cacao when the British abolished African slavery but still needed chattel to do their work. The Chinese cooked their own food when they weren't slaving. All Trinidad — not just Caribs and Africans but also, as in
Yarna told me that Chinese-style chicken is among his best-selling menu items and that it has been for most of the storied restaurant's 17 years. That turns out to be the case in many places the dish is served. At the restaurant Trini-Gul, in
At Pancho's as at Trini-Gul, the technique for cooking the dish is basically the same: a chicken is marinated in dark soy sauce and five-spice powder overnight, then deep-fried whole in a giant pot of oil flavored with sesame. The chicken comes in pieces on a plate, with sauce on the side. Home cooks, though, can achieve much the same effect by cutting the chicken up beforehand or by buying chicken thighs and legs, marinating the pieces and pan-frying them in a lot less oil. The result is crisp, hardly oily, with terrific flavor. It pairs amazingly well with fried rice and cold beer: a taste of the polyglot islands.
Fresh lime is crucial to your success. All across the
This is absolutely true of the sauce in the following recipe. The addition of a Scotch-bonnet sauce (choose your own, but make sure it is fruity in its fire, with a rich aftertaste) to the funky salinity of a commercial Chinese oyster sauce is revelatory, a culinary mash-up of the very first order. Slathered on the crisp chicken, it becomes visible poetry, a joyous product of survival under hard odds.Continue reading the main story

Organisations in Asia Pacific are in expansion mode, yet many are hamstrung by inefficient and inflexible talent-sourcing functions. These functions cannot effectively handle peaks and troughs and are not adaptable enough to flex with changing conditions.
Fail to plan and plan to fail – that's a philosophy worth noting for many challenges in business but none more so than workforce planning. Yet for all the talk about distant horizons and mid-to-long-term strategies, it's becoming increasingly difficult to predict and therefore plan for what will happen next with the global economy. There is still an underlying caution from both economists and employers about what's around the corner. What does this mean for talent strategies, particularly for sourcing and recruiting?
Part three of our five-part leadership perspective series examines the benefits of RPO's scalable and flexible solutions, and how this can impact your business.

Huipil from San Mateo Ixtatán #763Posted by admin in HUIPILES, San Mateo Ixtatán, SOLD
Absolutely huge and stunning vintage huipil from San Mateo Ixtatán! This beautiful and rarely seen available huipil measures 46″ across the shoulders, 42″ across the lower section, and 30″ from the neckline to the bottom edges (folded). The neck opening is round and measures 6″ in diameter.
This huge huipil is breathtaking with its elaborate fully hand-embroidered design in brilliant colors of red, yellow, purple, fuchsia, and blue sewn on a simple muslin background. This is a very large and very heavy huipil with the design shown on both inside and out. The design has the round 'suns' radiating from the collar. The lower edge of the huipil is full of flowers and quetzals. It has the traditional collar design. Due to the colder climate of San Mateo Ixtatán huipiles from this area tend to be heavy and warm. These classic huipiles from San Mateo Ixtatán of this style are very difficult to come by.
Additional photos can be found here.
This vintage huipil is in good used condition with areas of color fading throughout and some wear at the collar and lower edge. This is a fantastic piece for display!

- Brilliant Review by RACHEL
Thought I'd give Zen a go for my swollen knee and it had worked within a few days using 1 tablet a day, will keep taking, great stuff.
(Posted on 30/04/18)
- Zen relief Review by Cathy
I have recently started taking Zen tablets for relief of arthritis pain in and around the thumb joints of my right hand. As I am right handed I am often aggravating the pain with daily tasks. Since I have been taking the Zen tablets my hand doesn't ache they way it used to and I am only taking 1 tablet each morning. What a difference!

- Full nights sleep in more than 3 months after taking Zen Joint and Muscle Relief.. Review by PeterB
My wife suffers from carpal tunnel and awaits surgery.
Awoken every morning around 3:30 am by hand and arm pain for some 3 months she commenced taking Zen
About 4 days later the pain was so reduced, pretty much eliminated she slept through to about 6:30am
Still awaiting surgery she won't be without Zen.

- Excellent Product Review by DERRYN
Had a back injury many years ago and was on Prescription Pain Medication until recently without much success. Finally saw an Orthodedic Surgeon who said that my injury was ok but that I had Arthritis on my spine now. Tried Zen and results were amazing and within a few weeks and was able to stop taking all my pain medication. That was 6 months ago and now only take 1 tablets a day to stay pain free.

- Very effective in reducing arthritic pain in my feet. Review by Ros
I am very wary of taking Voltaren but couldn't walk without it. Since taking Zen I hardly ever take Voltaren. I highly recommend this product.
(Posted on 27/07/17)
- Have only been using for 2 months Review by Irene
I look forward to keep on using
(Posted on 7/03/17)
- Excellent product. Excellent service Review by Joy
I purchased the Zen tablets as I needed a stronger natural pain relief than the tumeric supplements I was taking, which were helping to a degree but not quite taking all the pain away. I thought if they could help with arthritis they should be able to help with my muscle pain from injuries. Within the first day after taking two I noticed my pain decrease and then the next day took the same and my pain was hardly noticeable. I was so thankful as they definitly just a bit stronger and the relief from the pain was wonderful.
Great service from Healthpost too in delivering the product quickly.
(Posted on 21/02/17)
- Where has been the last 5 plus years of my life Review by Felicity
Amaaazzzing. Now taken 2 a day for 6 days. Each morning a little less stiff, less pain, more freedom of movement. Went for 3 weekly back/shoulders massage today and therapist couldn't figure out why everything felt looser, less congested, tight and easier to work on. Until I told him about this product. He was very, very impressed. Got osteopath next week, can't wait for his reaction!
(Posted on 10/11/16)
- Very effective Review by Josephina
I tried these based on the reviews. After a few weeks, I stopped taking them to see if they had made a difference, as I was still in some pain. Wow, I had forgotten the intensity of the pain.
Havent taken the pain away completely, but certainly made it bearable.
They have made the pain go from 8/10 to a 3/10
I won't be experimenting again - this product definitely works.

Monica's continued recognition among the legal community proves that her dedication and expertise are well regarded.
Dallas, Texas (PRWEB) March 04, 2016
Once a year, Super Lawyers, a Thomson Reuters business, selects less than 3% of attorneys to be included on the Texas Rising Stars List. This prestigious honor is earned by receiving a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. Monica Cruz, partner at Verner Brumley McCurley Mueller Parker P.C., was selected to the list this year.
Monica Cruz has exclusively dedicated her practice to family law for 10 years which has earned her many honors and awards. She is Board Certified in Family Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, a distinction that only an elite group of attorneys can claim. Monica has been included on the Texas Rising Stars list for six consecutive years and has been recognized as one of Texas' Outstanding Young Lawyers by Texas Monthly. She is very involved in legal industry associations and served on the Texas State Bar, District 1 Grievance Committee. Before joining Verner Brumley McCurley Mueller Parker, Monica worked in the Child Support Litigation Division of the Texas Attorney General's Office where she gained expertise in cases involving children's issues.
"We are extremely proud to have Monica Cruz selected for inclusion on the Texas Super Lawyers list of Rising Stars this year. Her continued recognition among the legal community proves that her dedication and expertise are well regarded," says Jim Mueller, managing partner of Verner Brumley McCurley Mueller Parker PC.
Super Lawyers, a Thomson Reuters business, is a rating service of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. In order to be eligible for inclusion in Rising Stars, attorneys must be either 40 years old or younger or in practice for 10 years or less. The annual selections are made using a patented multiphase process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers, an independent research evaluation of candidates and peer reviews by practice area. The result is a credible, comprehensive and diverse listing of exceptional attorneys.

I am delighted to have been selected as a Representative on the Partnership Board. I believe that as Service users we now have the capacity to make a real impact to future changes and become involved at all levels of decision making. One of my passions is bringing awareness and breaking stigma towards mental health, particularly in the workplace.
Hi, I am involved with a number of mental health peer support groups within RCT. I feel that by being on the Partnership Board it will be an ideal opportunity for me to represent service users and carers and take their concerns forward which will hopefully help to improve the service that they and others receive now and in the future .
I am a carer representative on the Local Partnership Board. I have been a carer for 12 years and am passionate about the quality of mental health services locally and nationally. I hope that as a team we will be able to effectively represent the views of service users and carers; highlighting those issues that really matter.
What is our role?
Our role is to:
- Find out what the key priorities are for service users and carers
- Represent the service user and carer voice on the Cwm Taf Mental Health Partnership Board, that oversees the delivery of the Together for Mental Health strategy in Cwm Taf.

Andre Williams & The Goldstars Performing Fri. 6/6/14 & Sat. 6/7/14
4th Year Anniversary with Andre "Mr. Rhythm" Williams is a R&B legend, and you may not even know it. He wrote "Shake A Tail Feather," and sang such uber-raunch cult classics as "Bacon Fat" (covered by the Cramps), "Greasy Chicken," and the epitome of songs about little girls, "Jail Bait." He worked at seminal labels such as Motown, Chess, and Fortune. He wrote songs for, or produced folks Ike Turner, Parliament/Funkadelic, Edwin Starr and Stevie Wonder. The guy is like music's version of Zelig; he's been everywhere, man. Yeah, baby.

Holy Cross School students are encouraged to participate in the many extracurricular activities offered throughout the year. Ranging from sports to clubs to personal development, these activities provide the chance to become more involved in the school's community, outside of the classroom.
Students are also encouraged to join a team, such as volleyball, basketball or track and field. Being on a team promotes co-operation and leadership skills for students, while helping them to build self-confidence and improve their skills in that particular activity.
Intramural sports are offered during lunch recess. Students have the opportunity to participate in intramural sports, ranging from basketball, volleyball, floor hockey, badminton and other selected activities.
Leadership roles come in the form of being a House leader. Grade 8 students are responsible for organizing House events and the hard work that goes into developing these special gatherings. Students present their ideas to the entire school as well as to their respective Houses in the form of activities that are performed school-wide on a monthly basis.

Each year, Holy Cross School produces an exceptional yearbook that records the activities that students have participated in during the academic year. Students take photos, create write-ups about several events and work to develop the style of each year's final product before it is printed by the end of June.

Students wishing to be patrols must fill out an application form, with the required parent signature.
