Representative samples of a user's industrial waste water shall be collected on normal operating days and in accordance with guidelines listed in Appendix B. Industrial users subject to Pretreatment Standards shall sample in accordance with the Pretreatment Standards. Self-monitoring point(s) for industrial users who are not subject to Pretreatment Standards shall be at a location before waste water is mixed with other discharges or at a point where waste can be adequately monitored.
Section 277:21. Pretreatment. Users shall provide necessary waste water treatment as required to comply with this ordinance and shall achieve compliance with all national categorical pretreatment standards within the time limitations as specified by the Federal pretreatment regulations.
Any facilities required to pretreat waste water shall be provided, operated and maintained at the user's expense. Detailed plans showing the pretreatment facilities and operating procedures shall be submitted to the Superintendent for review, and shall be acceptable to the Superintendent before construction of the facility. The review of such plans and operating procedures will in no way relieve the user from the responsibility of modifying the facility as necessary to produce an effluent acceptable to the Superintendent under the provisions of this ordinance. Any subsequent changes in the pretreatment facilities shall be reported to and be acceptable to the Superintendent prior to the user's initiation of the changes.
All records relating to compliance with pretreatment standards shall be made available by the Superintendent to officials of the EPA or MPCA upon request.
Any user subject to a national categorical pretreatment standard, after the compliance date of such pretreatment standard, or, in the case of the commencement of a new discharge to the waste water treatment system, shall submit to the Superintendent during the months of June and December, unless required more frequently in the pretreatment standard or by the Superintendent, a report indicating the nature and concentration of pollutants in the effluent which are limited by such pretreatment standards.
Section 277:23. Final Compliance Date Reporting Requirements. Within ninety (90) days following the date for final compliance with applicable pretreatment standards, or, in the case of the commencement of a new discharge to the waste water treatment system, any user subject to pretreatment standards and requirements shall submit to the Superintendent a report indicating the nature and concentration of all pollutants in the discharge from the regulated process which are limited by pretreatment standards and requirements and the average and maximum daily flow for these process units in the user's facility which are limited by such pretreatment standards or requirements. The report shall state whether the applicable pretreatment standards or requirements are being met on a consistent basis and, if not, what additional operation and maintenance and/or pretreatment is necessary to bring the facility into compliance with the applicable pretreatment standards or requirements. This statement shall be signed by the user, and certified to by a qualified professional.
Section 277:25
Section 277:25. Confidential Information. Information and data on a user obtained from applications, permits, monitoring programs and inspections shall be available to the public or other government agencies without restriction unless the user specifically requests and is able to demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Superintendent that the release of such information would divulge information, processes or methods of production entitled to protection as trade secrets of the user.
When requested by the person furnishing a report, and until such time as the information is determined not to be confidential, the portions of a report which might disclose trade secrets or secret processes shall not be made available for inspection by the public but shall be made available upon written request to governmental agencies for uses related to this ordinance, the NPDES Permit, State Disposal System Permit and/or the pretreatment programs; provided, however, that such portions of a report shall be available for use by the State or any state agency in judicial review or enforcement proceedings involving the person furnishing the report. Waste water constituents and characteristics will not be recognized as confidential information. Information accepted by the Superintendent as confidential, shall not be transmitted to any governmental agency or to the general public by the Superintendent until and unless a ten (10) day written notification is given to the user.
Section 277:27. Sludges Generated. Sludges, floats, skimmings, etc., generated by an industrial or commercial pretreatment system shall not be placed into the City's waste water treatment system. Such sludges shall be contained, transported and disposed of in accordance with all Federal, State and local regulations.
Section 277:29. Slug or Accidental Discharges. The Superintendent may suspend the waste water treatment service of a user and/or a Waste Water Discharge Permit (after written notice to the discharger) when such suspension is necessary, in the opinion of the Superintendent, in order to stop an actual or threatened discharge which presents or may present an imminent or substantial endangerment to the health or welfare of persons, to the environment, or to the waste water treatment system, or would cause the City to violate any condition of its NPDES or State Disposal System Permit.
Any user notified of a suspension of the waste water treatment service and/or the Waste Water Discharge Permit shall immediately cease and desist and stop the discharge. In the event of a failure of the user to comply voluntarily with the suspension order, the Superintendent shall take such steps as deemed necessary, including immediate severance of the sewer connection, to prevent or minimize damage to the waste water treatment system or endangerment to any individuals. The Superintendent shall reinstate the Waste Water Discharge Permit and/or the waste water treatment service upon proof of the elimination of the noncomplying discharge. A detailed written statement submitted by the user describing the causes of the slug or accidental discharge and the measures taken to prevent any future occurrence shall be submitted to the Superintendent within fifteen (15) days of the date of occurrence.
Section 277:31. Revocation of Permit. In accordance with the procedures of Sections 277:29 through 277:41 of this ordinance, the Superintendent may revoke the permit of any user which fails to factually report the waste water constituents and characteristics of its discharge; which fails to report significant changes in
Section 277:33
waste water constituents or characteristics; which refuses reasonable access to the user's premises for the purpose of inspection or monitoring or for violation of conditions of its permit, this ordinance, or applicable State and Federal regulations.
Section 277:33. Notification of Violation. Whenever the Superintendent finds that any user has violated or is violating this ordinance, Waste Water Discharge Permit, or any prohibition, limitation or requirement contained herein, the Superintendent may serve upon such user a written notice stating the nature of the violation.

Pimientos are red peppers that grow very much like the more common green bell pepper. These versatile peppers are of the sweet (versus hot) variety. They are commonly sold in jars, stuffed in olives and dried and ground to make paprika.
Instead of the frozen crabmeat or shrimp, use either a 6-ounce can of crabmeat, drained and cartilage removed, a 4-ounce can of shrimp, well rinsed and drained, or a 6-ounce can of tuna, drained.
Make it Impossibly Easy Tuna Pie when you use a 6-ounce can of tuna, drained, instead of the crabmeat.
If you keep canned crabmeat or shrimp on hand, go ahead and use it in this easy dinner pie.
Savory Impossibly Easy Pies can be covered and refrigerated up to 24 hours before baking. You may need to bake a bit longer than the recipe directs since you'll be starting with a cold pie. Watch carefully for doneness.

LETTERS From Mary Bousted (general secretary, Association of Teachers and Lecturers), London:
I FIND myself having to write in general support of the staff (and the students) of Cowes Enterprise College, who have been working incredibly hard under extremely challenging circumstances for a considerable time.
The latest news is, of course, the disappointing Ofsted.
I am not defending the report here but raise simple questions: how did it happen and who is responsible?
Consider the Ofsted background before the creation of the college,
• In 2009, Solent Middle was deemed outstanding.
• In 2009, Osborne Middle was deemed good, with outstanding leadership at all levels in their ability to improve by setting a clear direction of development.
• In 2010, Somerton Middle was deemed good with 'the effectiveness of care, guidance and support' given to pupils outstanding.
• In 2010, Cowes High was good with some outstanding features. The curriculum was deemed outstanding.
Yet in November 2012, Cowes Enterprise College was deemed inadequate and put in special measures. How has this happened?
The college was merged using staff from one outstanding school and three good schools with outstanding features. In other words, by and large, they are the same staff supporting the same students.
I raise the simple questions: how did it happen and who is responsible?
• More letters on this topic in the Friday, February 1, County Press.

The Emery High baseball team concluded its 2008 season with a 2-1 loss to Wasatch High School last Thursday in a game played at Taylorsville High School. Judge Memorial won the 3-A title 6-2 over region 8 rival Juan Diego.
Wasatch scored two runs in the first inning off Emery pitcher Gatlan Huntington and then the Wasps held on for the win. Two singles and an Emery error led to the runs. Huntington gave up five hits in the game and three walks, with all of them coming in the same inning.
Emery scored their lone run in the top of the seventh inning. Brett Mecham singled and scored on a single by Ryne Jones. Emery had other opportunities in the game but were unable to capitalize on them.
Gatlan Huntington walked and Jones singled in the first inning but neither was able to score. Addison Collard singled and got to second base in the second inning but also was unable to score. In the fifth inning, Collard singled again and Derrick Allred and Mecham each had a sacrifice bunt attempt that turned into a fielder's choice. In the sixth inning, Jones singled and Steven Giles singled but again neither was able to score.
Emery had their opportunities to win the game but it just wasn't to be. Seven base hits and two walks but only one run. Ryne Jones had three singles and Addison Collard had two to lead the offensive effort.

The Big One
We compared notes on our shocking lack of preparedness. Stephanie mentioned that after a quick mental review of the supplies in the house for her family of six, if the big quake should hit now, after 20 minutes they would be eating each other. We were not much better off here. At best, we were "prepared" for 3 days of eating mayonnaise sandwiches in the dark. Unacceptable.
My mom was still living in Northern California during the big and deadly Loma Prieta quake in 1989. More specifically, she was in Aptos, 2 miles from the epicenter. As I watched the live news coverage of the quake, there was very little information to be had other than that the epicenter of this giant quake was based in my mom's living room. I had no way of contacting her. I was worried, but the one thing I did know was that as long as she had made it through the shaking, she would be prepared for what came after. I knew she had enough canned goods and batteries in the house to outfit the neighborhood for a month. She ended up losing some glass things and had some structural damage, but she was lucky, and fine, and organized, and ready.
So, I knew what ready looked like. It wasn't us. That one dead flashlight in the garage wasn't going to do much for us in the event of a big quake, mild storm, or even 20 minute power outage.
I decided I needed to make it all happen while I was still motivated by fear and paranoia. I made a late run to Ralph's (at 11:00 PM on a school night) and filled a shopping cart with 3 first aid kits, a palette of batteries, gallons of bottled water, a serious ton of weird canned stuff (Dinty Moore Beef Stew anyone?), and a small propane BBQ.
It's done. We have stuff. We have a plan. We have emergency kits in both cars. If I am forced to camp out on the 210 for 3 days, I can make coffee. We have a butane lantern for seeing the rubble. As directed, I also hid some cash. After the quake, ATMs and credit cards could be worthless and Coinstar does not accept tears.
According to the Holy-Crap-You-Are-Screwed email, here is the basic list of stuff to have on hand. (Not just for earthquakes - this also works for tornadoes and hurricanes, times of civil unrest, or living until your unemployment check kicks in.)
• Half gallon of water per person in your household per day. At 7 days, that's 3 ½ gallons per person.
• A week's worth of food – and don't forget a manual can opener and a propane stove or outdoor grill to cook it on.
Some suggestions for your food cache:
• Canned meats, fish, fruits, vegetables, beans, soups
• Protein bars
• Dry cereal or granola
• Peanut butter
• Nuts
• Dried fruit
• Crackers
• Canned juices
• Non-perishable comfort foods, like chocolate
• Bottled drinks with electrolytes, such as Gatorade
• Baby food in jars, plus formula, for the little ones
• Pet food
• Lanterns and flashlights - It's going to be several weeks, possibly months - without electricity.
• Batteries
• Battery-powered radio
• Extra prescription meds - You can ask your doctor for a 1-time additional prescription, then rotate those into your regular supply each month to keep them fresh.
• First Aid kit - Include anti-diarrhea medication, in case you ingest some bad water.
• Garbage bags - You can line your toilet with these, too, since there won't be any water to flush when you get that diarrhea.
• Alcohol gel for hand washing
• Toilet paper, paper towels, disposable diapers (For the baby. Or you. You are a mess.)
• Whistle
• A communication plan - The California phone servers will be down and/or overwhelmed, but you may be able to reach someone out of state if you use a cell phone. Designate one out-of-state person to be your family's contact person, and make sure that all your family members living in LA know to call that person if you are not all together when a quake happens. If your kids are at school when it hits, they need to know to call Grandma in Florida so that Grandma can relay messages for you.
Those are the absolute basics. Don't forget to keep food, water, and blankets in your car, as well as an extra pair of sneakers, socks, and a sweat suit or something comfortable to wear. If you are unfortunate enough to be on a freeway at the time of a major quake, you will probably be stuck there for days. Bust out the coffee.

Living in Hurricane Central, after moving here I decided this was absolutely something I had to do! Being a Gemini, I got bored after buying the battery operated lantern and quit. (makes great wall bunnies though and gives my husband ample ammunition to fault me see-though -it -ness).ReplyDelete

Hey Lisa,ReplyDelete
Having just experienced the disaster that hurricane Ike with no elec, water etc for the week+ I now read these more carefully. This is fantastic list btw. We had the benefit of seeing the storm coming. The thing I would include is the recycling of all second hand water. You can't imagine the glorious sound of a flushing toilet!

can opener?ReplyDelete
Definitely. It's there on the list!ReplyDelete
Having been right smack dab in the mayhem of Loma Prieta I would like to add my suggestions of having sleeping bags,pads and tent conveniently located and safely accesible. As was the case with us, your house may not have fallen down, but you can't necessarily go back inside for a few days, let alone want to with the events of aftershocks.ReplyDelete
Outside can be a much safer place, no matter what the weather is like.
Never underestimate the power of clean socks and underwear!ReplyDelete
Each member of my family has a backpack of stuff we call a 72 hour kit. It includes (hopefully) all we REALLY need to survive for three days. Will it really be enough? I don't know. We try to inventory it every 6 months or so and change the food and clothing (kids grow).

It's the last day of the month, and sales of American Eagle gold bullion coins are running nowhere near the pace of early 2013, or the year-ago period.
With a day of sales left to record (today's), the U.S. Mint has sold 27,500 American Eagle gold coins for the month, according to the mint's website. It's not even close. Last September's figure was 104,000. January 2013′s was a remarkable 275,500, before a peak of 312,500 in April. Then the downtrend that bottomed in August as buyers took a vacation (21,000 coins).
Miller Tabak's Andrew Wilkinson writes to tell clients this afternoon that sales are on track for the smallest two months in six years, which shouldn't be surprising given August's sales were themselves a six-year low.
So, if you view coin sales as the ultimate indicator of the smalltime investor/collectors' appetite, things are as glum as they've been in a while.
SPDR Gold Trust (GLD) and iShares Gold Trust (IAU) are down by 0.5% late in Monday's session. Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (GDX) is down by 0.5% and Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners ETF (GDXJ) is down by 2%. iShares Silver Trust (SLV) is off by 0.3%.

Secret Lures Wide Gap Tail Shaker Jigs 3pk
The Secret Lures Tail Shaker is the ultimate shaky head for soft-plastics. The Shaky head is designed around a premium 4/0 Mustad EWG hook and features a molded screw-lock for attachment. This design allows a variety of soft plastics to be rigged straight and natural while providing more hook "bite".
The Tail Shaker is built around the proven football head, the Secret Lures "Pivot Divot". This unique concave design allows the bait to rock between two balance points. The head rests level, with the hook tilted forward or backwards, but always up. This allows the angler to impart a true "shaking" action, while keeping the line safely off the bottom.

Comments: Very good and super sharp. Caught a ton of fish on these. Only downfall is the hook is pretty thin wire and at times does have some give to them. I do fish the megastrike shaky heads and the yum pumpkin eds which both have stronger hooks but it seems that the secret lure hook being smaller diameter penetrates easier. A little give and take, but I lean towards these shaky heads. Very good through rocks since it is football shaped. Hope this helps someone.

Posted on 04/05/2013 5:14:38 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper
President Barack Obama next week will take the political risk of formally proposing cuts to Social Security and Medicare in his annual budget in an effort to demonstrate his willingness to compromise with Republicans and revive prospects for a long-term deficit-reduction deal, administration officials say.
In a significant shift in fiscal strategy, Obama on Wednesday will send a budget plan to Capitol Hill that departs from the usual presidential wish list that Republicans typically declare dead on arrival. Instead it will embody the final compromise offer that he made to Speaker John Boehner late last year, before Boehner abandoned negotiations in opposition to the president's demand for higher taxes from wealthy individuals and some corporations.
(Excerpt) Read more at tampabay.com ...
The clown has ALREADY broken the law by not turning jn the budget on time.
He doesn't, Medicare has already been cut, they're already paying higher co-pays and it won't pay enough for cancer treatment and the death panel haven't even started.
This is another trap set for republicans. More taxes and only cutting entitlements for seniors is a losing proposition for 2014.
Notice how the dems never propose cutting food stamps and welfare programs for their plantation dwellers.
And how. I just saw my bill from the ER. Medicare only paid 10% of the 'usual' charge. That won't continue very long.
Cut SS and Medicare, and raise taxes. Most of the retirees will be forced to sell their homes in order to survive and pay the medical costs. Surplus of vacant homes will drive the market down (again - if you really believe it's coming back up). Obama hates old people and anyone not on welfare.
"You want cuts, I'll give you cuts. You'll get your cuts and they'll blame you."
And they will and the Dems will skate again. As always.
Makes me wonder why I bother?
Medicare isn't what needs cutting. OBAMACARE is what needs cutting.
There is no way they can cut enough from Medicare to pay forn 100,000 people that Obamacare has to hire just to explain the 63 pages they need fill out to to ask for it.
Not to mention the IRS agents needed to steal the money from us to pay for it, and the thousands needed to sit on the death panels.
They want to save money do away with this crazed government takeover of medicine.
There's no such thing as a free lunch. Let this be a lesson...save more for catastrophic care later in life.
Yep, not three weeks ago got an over 3,000 dollar charge from a hospital I have never gotten a charge from, and have had far more expensive procedures in the past. The only difference, Obama care and 2013. Can't wait for 2014 when things really kick in. By that time no one but the indigent will be able to afford the emergency room.
...and when that happens, the emergency room will go broke and it won't take long.
He just hates old people who worked all their lives, paid Social Security, got a pension from their employers or invested money wisely.
Obama or his puppeteers are a whole lot smarter than the GOP leadeership who will probably go for this robbery.
They did the same thing under Bush II with the Patriot Act and the "Department of Homeland Security"!!!
Even Stalin's propagandists would admire how that second paragraph is written. Obama is so reasonable in the face of the Republican zealots who want to protect the wealthy and corporations.
Sure he and the pols have to cut SSI because it's the only program the Feds administer that is still in the black even though they are attaching every welfare program they can to it.
Obama already stole medicare funds to pay for obamacare-—now he's going to call this a "cut". What a lying piece of crap.
I wonder if I will even see one of them?
"Sure he and the pols have to cut SSI because its the only program the Feds administer that is still in the black even though they are attaching every welfare program they can to it."
SSI stands for "Social Security's Supplemental Security Income". It is a welfare program for very poor SS recipients.
I think you just meant SS...
I call it OBAMASCARE
Report back and let us know. I'm curious myself.
It is not just affecting the old it is affecting the disabled (people who are really disabled). Lets make some real cuts Senators And House Representatives, pResident, vice pResident, Cabinet Members, White Hut Staff cut the number of staff, salaries (75%) and benefits.
Odumb@$$ is just utilizing class warfare, and any type of rhetoric to make people angry at someone else. The REAL problem is Odumb@$$ just hates America.
They figure it won't hurt to make these cuts since they are going to be denying healthcare to old folks anyway. Folks will be dying younger, so the funding won't be needed.
Documentation File on the negative impact of the Obamanation Counterculture on America.
He doesn't care about old people. He wants them replaced with the Obama Jugend.
what a slanted hit piece on pubs....written to belittle those awful pubs while our dear bamey the boy leader is being the "better" person......sure...
we may very well see many smaller hospitals close...or close er services and only depend on elective surgeries...
To the statist progressive eliminating old people from the population has the following benefits:
1) The quicker people die, the less they draw on social security and Medicare. If the expire soon enough their contribution over their working life exceeds what they draw out. This leaves more resources to distribute to more deserving citizens.
2) Any savings they leave behind can be redistributed to the deserving via confiscatory inheritance taxes.
3) They are no longer consuming food, water, and other resources. Removing this consumption helps the environment.
4) Given that the elderly population is disproportionately white and conservative, death enhances diversity and eliminates political opposition.
I'm surprised they're letting you get checks.
They told me electronic deposit only.
It was a figure of speech, obviously lost on you.
So perhaps we should consider cuts to welfare and food stamps and disability - since clearly disability services have been badly abused by more than a few beneficiaries - and Medicare? And perhaps consider that *everything* in fact should be reduced?
I haven't yet figured out why social security only pays for a modest lifestyle, at best, but we expect Medicare to provide the same care as a millionaire. For me, I'd like the government to get out of health care altogether. These socialist programs never work out. Too many people want too much for nothing.
You should get at least some of them. I can start at year end when at 62 and am trying to figure out if I should wait. It's a little more challenging to run the numbers with SS's uncertainty and the government looking hungrily at IRAs and 401Ks.
This is the first budget he has sent over in about 4 years, isn't it???
I lived in So Calif from 1964 to 1993.. There was a very good hospital near me—Northridge.
They had built the best emergency trauma facility in the whole city during that time I was there.
They actually shut down that entire part of the hospital after I was gone due to the high number of gang members & illegals who used the services without paying a dime.
Now—those who had insurance & could do the copays no longer have a facility to go to.
Direct deposit ONLY after early May of this year. Some people are actually still getting checks, IIRC.
Yeah May is when I start collecting and go on Medicare.
I'm soon to be an "entitlement" guy.

Customer Reviews:
Comments: Definitely the best blade for outdoor use. I play on an outdoor concrete surface and this blade lasts forever! I have tried other abs blades and they tend to break right where the wood meets the abs material, but not this one! A little pricey but worth it!
From: Steven at IW Hockey
Comments: Definitely one of the best blades ever made. I play on hockey about 5 to 6 times a week for at least 2 hours a time. This blade lasts me longer than any other blade out there and trust me, I've tried them all. Not sure if it's exactly worth the $36 dollars, maybe closer to $25 but I usually bite the bullet and pay what I have to. Which it was still elongated like koho made it instead of wide like ccm does now but still an excellent blade.
From: Chris, FL
Comments: I play roller hockey in an outdoor smooth concrete surface. So far I've tried ABS blades from Easton and Reebok. This one is by far the best with Reebok a close second. It's a little bit more expensive but it's a solid blade with good durability and the puck feel with the wooden core is what sets it apart. Have this matched up with a Total One NXG shaft and it's $$$$!
From: Jason, LA, CA
Comments: Great durable blade! Just like the Koho Crossover. Not to mention it has a great shot to it. I have the Jagr curve on my crossover. The blade has withstood the power of my slapshots. Great outdoor blade if you are looking for one. I highly recommend buying this blade.
From: Randy, Mantua, NJ
Comments: same as the old Koho blade. Thankfully no changes in design or qualtiy. Probably the most solid, best performing blade for outdoor use. This is an excellent blade, although it is about $12 more expensive now that it has CCM printed on it...lame
From: Gear Executive, Fort Collins, CO

Turner Syndrome
Turner syndrome (TS) is a chromosomal condition that causes developmental problems in females, occurring when one of the two X chromosomes normally found in women is either missing or incomplete. The condition was first identified by Dr. Henry Turner in the late 1930s, but was not defined as a chromosomal deficiency until almost 30 years later.
Today, TS occurs in 1 out of every 2,500 births worldwide, making it one of the most common chromosomal abnormalities. There are approximately 60,000 girls and women living with this condition in the United States, and approximately 800 new cases diagnosed every year. In most cases, fetuses with TS do not survive to term, making up about 10 percent of the total number of miscarriages and stillbirths in the U.S.
Causes and characteristics
Humans normally have 46 chromosomes, two of which determine a person's gender. A woman's sex chromosomes help her become fertile and develop the female sexual characteristics, so when one of the two X chromosomes is partially or completely absent, various developmental problems can occur. With TS, the seriousness of these problems depends on how many cells are affected by the missing or incomplete X chromosome. The more cells affected, the more pronounced the effects.
One of the most common characteristics of women and girls with TS is a short stature. If the syndrome is diagnosed while a girl is still growing, hormone treatment can help her grow taller, but those who go untreated will only reach an average height of about 4 feet 8 inches.
In addition to growth problems, another common characteristic of TS is a lack of proper ovarian development. Because the ovaries are responsible for releasing the hormones that cause breast growth and menstruation, most girls with TS will not go through all the changes that come with puberty. As a result, almost all women with this condition will be infertile or unable to conceive on their own.
Other physical features of TS may include a webbed neck, drooping eyelids, arms that slightly turn out at the elbow, puffiness or swelling of the hands and feet, low-set ears, a low hairline and a broad chest.
There are also a number of health problems that occur more often in girls with TS than in healthy girls. These include cardiovascular problems, high blood pressure, kidney and thyroid problems, diabetes, cataracts, hearing difficulties and skeletal disorders, such as scoliosis or dislocated hips.
Not everyone with TS experiences the same symptoms. Some may exhibit several of the physical effects, while others experience only a few. With early treatment, most women and girls with TS can lead normal, healthy lives.
TS is not associated with any environmental or other factors generally associated with genetic problems, and despite many efforts, the cause of the condition has not yet been found. At this point, it has been determined a random condition that can affect anyone.

Apple Releases OS X 10.8 "Mountain Lion" for $20

Apple's "other" operating system gets a major update
Windows enthusiasts around the world are waiting for the
October release of Windows 8
. However, for those of the Mac persuasion, today
marks the release
OS X 10.8 "Mountain Lion"
. Mountain Lion is the latest in a long line of OS X releases and is available for a "mere" $19.99 from the App Store.
For customers that purchased a new Mac computer since June 11, the upgrade to Mountain Lion is free from Apple.
Apple brags that Mountain Lion includes
over 200 new features
-- which are obviously too numerous to list here -- but we'll include just a couple of the highlights:
Full iCloud integration
Game Center, Reminders, and Notes
-- all three are staples of iOS, and all three are iCloud-enabled
-- another iOS transplant
Notification Center
-- most Mac users got their notifications via Growl, but now Apple is getting into the game with the -- once again -- iOS-esque Notification Center
Power Nap
-- this feature allows a Mac to still periodically check email and sync iTunes content while in a deep state of sleep. If connected to a power source, the machine will also perform Time Machine backups and download software updates.
Facebook and Twitter
-- these two social networks are also baked into the upcoming iOS 6 release
A few sites have posted reviews of Mountain Lion and the consensus is that it's a worthy upgrade to Lion.
The Verge's
Nilay Patel is overall pleased with the upgrade:
Ultimately, this is pretty easy: you should spend the $20 and upgrade to Mountain Lion, especially if you have a newer Mac. You'll gain a handful of must-have features, and everything will get faster and smoother. I haven't really missed Snow Leopard at all since upgrading, which is remarkable considering how much I disliked Lion...
Mountain Lion is the first version of OS X to deeply integrate network services at every level, from storing documents to sharing photos to connecting external displays, and it seems that much lighter for it — as though Apple's relentless charge into its post-PC era has allowed the OS X team to rethink exactly what a PC is and should be. Mountain Lion isn't perfect, but it's a confident, thoughtful step towards the future of desktop computing.
Brian Heater acknowledges that Mountain Lion is a bargain upgrade, but also notes that it seems as though OS X is mainly taking a back seat to iOS when it comes to attention/features, and that the operating system is in need of a complete "rethink":
That said, it seems time for Apple to make a bold new pronouncement on the desktop front. The company appears to have most of its resources invested in the mobile side -- and there's no question as to why: the iPhone and iPad have reinvigorated the company, making it a computing player on a scale that no one (save, perhaps, for Jobs himself) could have predicted a decade ago. Still, it might be hard for OS X users not to feel neglected -- many of the latest new features feel a bit like iOS hand-me-downs. When and if Apple rolls out a new operating system this time next year, hopefully we'll be seeing a very different side of Mac OS.
But with a price tag of just $20, Mountain Lion is a no-brainer upgrade for members of the Mac community.
The Verge
"Game reviewers fought each other to write the most glowing coverage possible for the powerhouse Sony, MS systems. Reviewers flipped coins to see who would review the Nintendo Wii. The losers got stuck with the job." -- Andy Marken

— The art of tasting —
Beer & Cheese
Unibroue beers are the perfect match for cheese. Planning a get-together with friends? You can make it simple yet convivial by including a lovely serving platter, a good selection of cheese and beer, artisan bread, crackers, fruit and the following suggestions to make your tasting a success.
Variety and quantity
- Plan for 3 to 4 oz of beer per person, per service.
- For a tasting of 3 or 4 services, plan between 200 and 280 g of cheese per person (70 g per person per service)
- To get a variety of flavors, chose different types of cheeses: soft, semi-soft, firm, semi-firm, hard and blue-veined.
- Cut round and square cheese into wedges, starting from the middle, and cylinder cheese into thin slices.
- To avoid mixing flavors, supply a different knife for each cheese and set it on the platter in such a way as to avoid it touching the other ones.
- Let the cheese sit at room temperature for 45 to 60 minutes before serving.
- For serving temperatures of each of our ales, consult their profile page over here
- Serve your guests some crackers or a few slices of plain, nut, or rye artisan bread.
- Supply some fresh fruit such as apple slices, pears, fresh figs, nuts and dried fruit.
- Pâtés and cold cuts will complement the beer and cheese nicely.
Beer and cheese pairing
It is recommended to use the cheese's character to find it's perfect beer match. In general, start with milder beer with mild cheeses and follow with beers and cheeses that have a more pronounced flavor. Here are a few suggestions:
Blanche de Chambly
Brie & camembert, fresh goat cheese, firm washed rind, firm beer washed rind, soft washed and mixed rind.
Éphémère Apple
Brie & camembert, fresh goat cheese, firm washed rind, firm beer washed rind, firm 100% pasteurized cow milk.

Paul Brach Lecture Series: Jesal Kapadia
ART: Jesal Kapadia is an artist from Mumbai and a graduate of the Whitney Independent Study Program. She currently teaches at MIT in the department of Art Culture and Technology. Employing mediums such as the book, the archive and the photograph, as well as experimental film, video and performance, her work explores the potential forms of non-capitalist subjectivities. Her interests lie in an ethical praxis of being-in-common, and the cultivation of an awareness of art that is place-based, diversified, multiple, small-scale, cooperative and autonomous.
Over the last ten years, Jesal has collectively edited art for Rethinking Marxism (a journal of economics, culture and society) as well as organized and participated in events with members of 16beaver group (an artist community in downtown New York that functions as an open platform for discussion, critique and collaboration). She has taught and
developed a number of courses and seminars at various schools, including, the International Center for Photography, New School for Public Engagement, Cooper Union School
of Art, and Rhode Island School of Design. Her work in different classrooms and with the two collectives has further enabled her explorations into the fragile but dynamic exchange between art and organizing, art and social change, and art and pedagogy. She has exhibited her work both locally and internationally; most recent screenings, installations and workshops include the 'And And And' platform at Documenta 13 in Kassel, 'Fiat: Experiments in Financial Semantics' at the Neiman Gallery in Columbia University, 'Prolonged Engagement' at EFA Project Space in New York and 'Art and Revolution' at the U.S. Social Forum in Detroit.
