From Global Green New Deal to Global Green Recovery
Leading Environmental Economist Makes the Case for Accelerated and Sustained Action
New UNEP Book Underlines How Asia is Surging Forward with Green Investments While Rest of G20 Lags Behind
Nairobi/Geneva, 3 May 2010 - Asia and in particular China and the Republic of Korea are pioneering an economic and employment recovery based in part on significant investments in a Green Economy.
Over a third of China's stimulus package, equal to three per cent of its GDP, is being spent on high speed rail to boosting its already impressive growth in areas such as wind and solar power and energy efficient lighting.
China is already the leading global producer of solar cells, wind turbines and solar water heaters giving it s renewable energy sector valued at $17 billion which employs close to one million people or 0.1 per cent of the working population.
Meanwhile the Republic of Korea's (South Korea) green new deal plan is allocating 95 per cent of its fiscal stimulus or three per cent of GDP into environmental sectors including low emission vehicles.
Its five-year green-growth investment plan, launched in July 2009, will spend $60 billion to cut carbon dependency with the aim of boosting economic growth to 2020 and generating up to 1.8 million jobs.
This is in contrast to the United States green stimulus, which despite amounting to 12 per cent of the American Recovery and Investment Act, represents only 0.7 per cent of GDP.
And the European Union's green stimulus, whereby 50 per cent of the overall package, represents an investment of just $22.8 billion in low carbon investments or 0.2 per cent of GDP.
These are among the findings in a new book, published by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and Cambridge University Press (CUP) by Edward Barbier, a leading economist and consultant to UNEP's Global Green New Deal/Green Economy Initiative based at the University of Wyoming in the United States.
"With China and South Korea leading the way in environmental investments, other G20 countries must unite to promote a sustainable global economic recovery both through fiscal stimulus and long-term policy implementation," says Professor Barbier, whose book is entitled A Global Green New Deal: Rethinking the Economic Recovery.
'Indeed without a long term vision on how to further catalyze and embed the environment within the economy, there is a real danger that many of the G20's green stimuli will wither and simply go to waste," he adds.
Achim Steiner, UN Under-Secretary General and UNEP Executive Director, says: "The financial and economic crisis triggered a fundamental awareness that investments in the environment may be the key to tackling multiple challenges from climate change and food shortages to natural resource scarcity and unemployment".
"Last year UNEP and its advisors recommended that countries which invest one per cent of their GDP in environmental sectors could begin realizing this low carbon, resource efficient, Green Economy path," he adds.
"Professor Barbier's book underlines that while some economies have seized this opportunity, others have not: with the exception of several Asian economies, there remains a gap between ambition and action. 2010, via the G8 and G20 meetings and others?such as the World Bank and IMF events?offer a chance to close and to bridge this ambition gap while broadening the opportunities for Green Growth to a wider number of developing economies on continents such as Africa and Latin America," says Mr Steiner.
Background and Some Facts and Figures from the New Book
UNEP launched its Green New Deal policy brief to its annual gathering of environment ministers in February 2009 with the recommendation that one per cent of GDP be spent on green initiatives.
The new book is expanded version of the brief and an assessment on how far countries have gone towards that goal in terms of investment but also fundamental policy changes and directions.
A key recommendation in a UNEP report of 2009 was that 1% of gross domestic product (GDP) be spent on green initiatives.
The G20, which accounts for two-thirds of the world's populations, 90% of Global GDP and three quarters of global greenhouse-gas emission, should be financing this.
The report also stressed the need for policy changes at national and global levels to support green fiscal spending.
Professor Barbier estimates that of the $3 trillion spent or earmarked globally for the fiscal stimulus, just over $460 billion is aimed at green investments.
This is equal to around 15 per cent of the total fiscal stimulus or around 0.7 per cent of the G20's GDP.
China and the Republic of Korea lead the way at three per cent of GDP, followed by Saudi Arabia, 1.7 per cent; Australia, 1.2 per cent and Japan, 0.8 per cent.
This is followed by the United States, with 0.7 per cent of its stimuli being green; Germany, 0.5 per cent; France 0.3 per cent and Canada, South Africa and the United Kingdom, 0.2 per cent.
The book also underlines opportunities that may be missed if well-targeted environmental investments backed by policies such as phasing out fuel subsidies to smart market mechanisms such as feed-in tariffs, are halted or scrapped.
Professor Barbier points out that scrapping the $300 billion a year fossil fuel subsidies alone could reduce greenhouse-gas emissions by 6% and add 0.1% to world GDP.
He argues that adopting environmental pricing policies that capture the true value of natural resources allied to canceling a suite of subsidies could increase global GDP by 0.7%-2.2%.
If such policies were internationally coordinated, then such measures could increase the G20's GDP by 1.1%- 3.2%.
"The problems of energy insecurity, climate change, environmental degradation and global poverty will only worsen if we fail to green our current global economic recovery efforts," says Professor Barbier.

DEAR PEGGY: Do vegetables lose vitamins when boiled? If so, is it an appreciable amount? —M.S., San Diego, California
Nutrients escape from vegetables in two ways: They dissolve in cooking water or they're destroyed by heat. The simplest ways to minimize this loss is to include the cooking liquid when serving the dish or to choose a cooking method that doesn't involve much water.
When you boil vegetables, minimize the loss of vitamin C by adding them to the water after it comes to a boil. Another way to reduce the loss of water-soluble vitamins and volatile nutrients is to cook vegetables, covered, in a minimum amount of water.
Rapid cooking techniques, such as stir-frying, can help preserve some thiamin and vitamin C, which are most susceptible to destruction by heat. Another tip is to cut vegetables into small pieces to reduce cooking time.
When all is said and done, however, nutritional differences don't vary greatly from one cooking method to another. Vegetables only lose 5 to 10 percent of their minerals no matter how they're prepared. That's why it's best to simply choose a cooking method that yields the flavor, appearance and texture you prefer most in your vegetables.

The final: Who to cheer for?
Jean Lefebvre
May 29 2010 08:46AM
A quick and unscientific poll suggests that Flames fans, at least the ones who two months after their heroes' elimination are still paying attention, don't quite know what to make of the Stanley Cup final, which starts tonight in the House That Tony Amonte Built.
On one hand, there's no love lost for the Chicago Blackhawks, who have played speeding Audi Q7 to the Flames' pokey highway-crossing possum for the past couple of seasons. No one in Flames Nation needs be reminded about the Blackhawks' back-to-back season series sweeps over the Flames, about Chicago's triumph over the local lads in the first round of the 2009 playoffs and especially about that infamous Oct. 12, 2009, night when the Flames gassed a 5-0 lead at the Madhouse on Madison, so not a word of these incidents will be mentioned here.
A far more popular topic among the Flames faithful has been the Blackhawks' eradication of the Vancouver Canucks, a true enemy in these parts, in consecutive playoff seasons and the intense humiliation and Byfuglienization of Roberto Luongo in doing so.
The Philadelphia Flyers, on the other hand, are one of those rarely-seen Eastern Conference teams that leave most Flames supporters indifferent unless they are old enough to remember and have an opinion on the shenanigans of the Hammer, Moose, Hound Dog and Big Bird.
That said, here a few reasons that may convince a Calgary fan to cheer for the Flyboys:
1) Blair Betts: True, the defensive-minded centreman didn't call the Saddledome home for very long — 35 games over parts of three seasons — but he should be an easy chap for whom to root in any event. The poor guy was bedeviled by serious shoulder issues earlier in his career and he's battled through them to become a very useful spare part in the big leagues.
Another reason to cheer for Betts is the shoddy treatment he received from his previous employer, the New York Rangers. In last year's playoffs, Betts was the victim of a cheap-shot from Washington Capitals ruffian Donald Brashear. The Rangers' classy reaction the following off-season was to cut ties with Betts and sign Brashear as a free agent. Well, in a case of poetic justice, Brashear wound up playing out the string in the American Hockey League while Betts and the Flyers beat New York on the final day of the 2009-10 regular season to take the last available Eastern Conference playoff berth away from the Rangers.
By the way, unless the mending Brian Boucher gets called upon to replace Michael Leighton, Betts is likely to be the only ex-Flame to participate in the final.
2) Ian Laperriere: In an NHL overflowing with bland, colourless, quoteless automotons, Laperriere stands out like Yosemite Sam at an Acme Widget and Grommet Corporation board meeting.
The man is a true character, and not in the tasteless, R-rated Sean Avery sense of the term. Just look at his mug, especially the beak with all the east-west detours, or listen to that touch of a Denis Lemieux "Who Hone Da Chiefs/The Hair is Rotten" accent and try to stop yourself from smiling. And c'mon, the guy is coming back from a freaking brain contusion after blocking a Paul Martin shot with his face in the first round of the playoffs. Upon returning, he immediately dubbed himself "The Great Gazoo" for the oversized helmet he's wearing as a precaution.
Have a look and a listen to Lappy and be happy:
3) Marian Hossa: Yes, it's a little juvenile and it's a classic example of Schadenfreude, but there's something morbidly appealing about the idea of a guy losing in the Stanley Cup final in three straight seasons for three different teams.
4) Chris Pronger: Never understood the hooting at Pronger by Flames fans when the big galoot was with the Ducks. Yes, Pronger is a natural-born villain type but all you have to do is think about how Pronger got to Anaheim in the first place — demanding a trade out of the Alberta capital after a Stanley Cup final appearance with the Oilers and jump-starting the whole Edmonton-as-the-NHL's-Siberia reputation among NHLers. If Flames fans really wanted to twist the knife in Oilers fans' guts, wouldn't it have been better (and funnier) to greet Pronger as a conquering hero and cheer like mad every time he appeared at the Saddledome?
Anyhoo, Pronger is looking for his second Cup since giving Edmonton the big kiss-off and perhaps Calgarians would take a little joy out of Edmontonians' unhappiness over such a turn of events. A tough way to make a living as a hockey fan to be sure but when it's been six years since your team's last playoff series win and there's no guarantee of relief in the immediate future, you gotta take what you can get.
5) The conference trophy superstition: The Flyers carried off the Prince of Wales Trophy, the Blackhawks turned up their collective nose and ignored the Clarence Campbell Bowl like it was a month-old egg-salad sandwich. The whole "this-isn't-the-trophy-we-want" thing was kind of clever at first, but now it's just annoying, so it wouldn't be a horrible thing for the Flyers to follow the Penguins' example from a year ago (Pittsburgh players refused to touch the Prince of Wales hardware in 2008 and the Penguins lost in the final; Sidney Crosby accepted the PoW trophy in 2009 and, well, you know).
Besides, how seriously are we supposed to take teams' hammy downplaying of second-class team prizes when conference championship caps (available at souvenir stands for $28.99!) are being distributed to players milliseconds after the final buzzer sounds in the clinching game?
All good points, but ...
The Hawks play the kind of game that is fun to watch:
High Tempo, Aggressive, Skilled, Exciting, Well Coached... all the things you want in your own home team
... plus the Flyers have Pronger. I hate that guy.
May 29 2010, 09:46AM
who have played speeding Audi Q7 to the Flames' pokey highway-crossing possum
Great line Jean.
Reasons to cheer for the Hawks...
-Jonathan FREAKIN Toews ('nuff said)
-Brent Seabrook (I often desired Seabrook over Phaneuf... oh wells)
-Duncan "I lost 7 teeth but it ain't no thing like a chicken wing" Keith
-Buff the Stuff (boy he looked especially good celebrating goals against Van)
-Andrew Ladd (remember who took out Roloson in 06... plus former Hitmen)
-Joel Quennville (luv that guy)
-Patrick Sharp (the game's most underrated player)
-Hossa finally picked the right team (not a huge fan of the Wings or Pens)
-Dave Bolland makes a better "rat" than Dan "Stupid Penalty" Carcillo
-Finnish tender
-Western Conference
-Fack Bobby Clarke
-My buddy (die-hard Flyers fan) swore not to pick any Flyers in our pool, then went ahead & picked 8 (out of 14 total players)... he's already won the draft... don't give him the satisfaction of seeing the Cup go to the "Orange Crush"
-More WHL & Western Canada representatives
-Did you see my gravatar?
May 29 2010, 11:30AM
Open season on scott hartnell's wife if the flyers win.
I do really enjoy the Flyers as my second favourite team and have for years. I like their hard hitting and character guys, their skill is very underrated too.
Ultimately the real reason I want them to win those is to see Hossa lose. Of course I enjoyed watching him tell the Oilers to go F*^& themselves but it would be too funny to see. He doesnt deserve the cup and is playing as such in the playoffs.
Kanes a little b*tch too and I wanna see him cry... Hopefully we see some tears when Pronger absolutely demolishes him and Buff.
May 29 2010, 04:29PM
I'm going for the Hawks. Also Marc Bergeron was the guy that took out Rolli, remember you guys were all just has pissed as us Oiler fans? ~ thinks 99% of Flames fans were on the bandwagon~
Go Flyers go.
With Richards, Carter, Toews, Seabrook, and Keith all playing, I'm glad I don't have to listen to Pierre McGuire's colour commentary during these finals.
May 30 2010, 08:16AM
One reason to not cheer for Philly. Daniel Carcillo. What a goof. I can't even stand looking at the guy.
My reasons to cheer for the 'Hawks...
1: I have Blackhawks in my Office Pool. 2: I enjoy watching the 'Hawks play, sooooo skilled 3: They beat the Canucks 4: Small solice in knowing that the Flames were owned by the SC Champions and not also rans 5: Chris Pronger is a douche who should never win anything.

Arvada's dedication to making solar energy more attainable and affordable has earned the city the designation of a "Solar Friendly Community."
The city was recognized with a bronze level certification during the inaugural State of the City address April 19.
"It means that our local government has taken the right steps to give residents the choice to make solar energy their providers and made it easy to do that," said Arvada interim sustainability coordinator Robert Wallace. "We're proud to get this and excited to offer easy, affordable solar power to Arvada residents."
The Solar Friendly Community program was developed by the Colorado Solar Energy Industries Association and is funded by a grant through the Department of Energy's SunShot initiative.
"The goal is to work with communities to make solar energy more available and affordable to folks in your community," said COSEIA executive director Edward Stern during the recognition on April 19. COSEIA uses 12 criteria to award points to cities that rank them as a level of a Solar Friendly Community. Arvada currently exhibited 725 of 1,600 points to earn bronze level certification, Stern said.
"Arvada has been working very hard to qualify as part of this program," Stern said. "Specifically, the city is in the process of implementing electronic permitting for rooftop solar projects, which is expected to streamline the process substantially."
Other criteria the city met include posting requirements, using a standard form, keeping track of solar installations and following best practices, Stern said.
"It is our hope to continue to work with Arvada in the process of accelerating that qualification," Stern said.
Receiving a silver or gold certification is a long-term goal of the city, Wallace said. The city has issued more than 300 solar permits since 2007, Arvada communications manager Wendy Forbes said.
Arvada joins four other Colorado cities as a Solar Friendly Community — Denver, Aurora, Lakewood and Fort Collins. Depending on the size of the panels, installation of a solar panel in the Denver area can range from $5,000 to $12,000.

Australian state leader says he must recycle drinking water because of drought
The Associated Press
Published: January 28, 2007
CANBERRA, Australia: An Australian state will become the nation's first to introduce recycled sewage to its drinking water, and the rest of Australia would follow suit as a record drought threatens water supplies around the country, a state leader said Monday.
Queensland state Premier Peter Beattie announced his government had scrapped a referendum planned for March on whether Australia's third most populous state should introduce recycled drinking water.
Beattie said falling dam levels left his government with no choice but to introduce recycled water next year in the state's southeast one of Australia's fastest growing urban areas.
"We're not getting rain; we've got no choice," Beattie told Australian Broadcasting Corp. radio.
Australian farms and most cities are in the grip of the nation's worst drought in a century, with some areas receiving below average rainfall for a decade.
"I think in the end, because of the drought, all of Australia are going to end up drinking recycled, purified water," he added.
Morris Iemma, Premier of New South Wales, the most populous of Australia's six states, said drinking recycled water was not inevitable for Australia's major cities including his state capital, Sydney.
South Australia state Premier Mike Rann said his state Australia's driest already used recycled water to irrigate crops but would not introduce it to the drinking water supply.
Victoria, the second most populous state, did not need to recycle drinking water, the state's acting Water Minister Justin Madden. He said using recycled water for industry was a better option since that would free up more drinking water.
Prime Minister John Howard, a Sydney resident, congratulated Beattie and predicted recycled water would be introduced to Sydney in the near

Pass the Fosters please.
You don't buy Foster's, you merely rent it for a while.
I mean, there's only one way to recycle water, RIGHT?
Honey,did you change brands on the coffee?Something tastes a little off.....
Cue the jokes about "renting" beer...
As I understand it, most North American cities 'recycle' via primary treatment of their sewage. Settling basins settle the suspended solids out of the water, and decant the water -- usually directly into the nearest water course. This stuff is still full of bugs. (The sludge is sometimes collected and sent to be spread on unwitting farmer's fields, but that's another issue. It renders the field poisonous for growing plants for human consumption for many years to come, aside from smelling like sh**.) With secondary treatment (could be: ozone injection, aeration... a whole series of technologies have developed) the pollutants are digested by bacteria in an accelerated way. Time and biological processes are the key. The same thing happens in an ordinary septic system. To actually drink the water, you'd have to chlorinate it or do something else to kill the bugs that remain. Now, don't flame me -- I'm quoting a sanitary engineer here and am not one myself. The point is, this process may take time, and may take biochemical assistance, but it is so do-able that millions around the world should not lack the ability to recycle water when they are in an area with limited water resources. Perhaps with Australia in the vanguard, the accessibility of this technology will increase.
wifes' response "don't forget to chew ,dear."
I refer you to another article about the world's water supply:
ALL water is recycled in some manner. We don't get it shipped in from outer space.
Well - I have heard that sewage discharge, if it meets EPA (in the US) regulations, is cleaner and more pure than most tap water....
But if I am ever in a place that uses this "recycled water", please don't tell me what I am drinking!
If you lived in Denver, you'd be hard-pressed to tell it apart from Coors Light.
Yup. Out here in the country, septic systems disperse into the ground that which is not evaporated, and the earth acts as a natural filter while the liquid returns to the water table.
I suspect that in the last 400 million years every drop of water on the planet has passed through many, many kidneys.
Every drop of water you drink and every bit of air that you breath was inside another living body at some point.
You forget a very important point...most consumers of recycled water wouldn't know where to site their outhouse, if given the opportunity to do so...
But I am sure they have at least a bachelors degree in liberal arts...
True story. We lived in Alabama. Coffee brewer had a lid to close where you poured water. My wife never closed it even though I bitched about I repeatedly. One day wife complains about how long it takes to brew coffee. I take machine apart and fine that a cockroach has crawled down water shoot and we have been brewing cockroach coffee for several weeks. Wife claims that it is my fault and I should never mention it again.
Shortage of water? You mean the ocean is lower than it once was? No, you didn't mean that? Don't you really mean a shortage of money to spend on converting sea water, which is in shall we say, very abundant, supply, into usable water?

|In response to Re: Another Q for Sylvan
: : : Any difference in application between wye's and sanitary drain T's. Ie. 4x4x2 wye vs. 4x4x1 1/2 sanitary (red)?
: : Depends whch direction your going. Some codes do not allow a sanitary tee on the horiziontal.
: : Vertical to horiziontal should be ok
: Basically, I;m running a horizontal 1 1/2 drain line into either, the sanitary fitting is shorter(in vertical height) and would be better, as the wye fitting is much larger in size and would be maybe higher than the sloping drain line will allow. I can only get (approx 13) inches at max off the floor for the drain line in basement level, I'm running about 10 feet horizontally over to the main stack, so I will have to tie in somewhere around a foot or so off the floor, where I'm looking at 5 inches of cast iron, with a fernco transition above to pvc....Thus, I'd like to use the sanitary 4x4x 1 1/2 fitting cause its short, but only if it'll work....
Personally id go with the 4 x 2 Wye as I also do drain cleaning and running a jetter/snake through an 11/2 pipe is not as easy of course as a 2"
As for Fernco forget it. I would use Fernco as a garbage can liner your much better off with a Mission coupling.
As for cleanouts they should be installed at the base of each stack / leader (not vent) every change of direction greater then 45 deg and every 50 feet (NYC plumbing Code)One of the most stringent in the country.
If you have any more questions please feel free to E mail me.. Sylvan

Just trying to get big
I've rarely ever done high volume workouts because I just like lifting heavier weights. As long as I got stronger, I didn't care much about size. Recently, though, I took a month out and trained 2 times per day (5x5 in the morning, 6x10 in the evening). I wasn't trying to put on mass, just get used to handling heavier weights for more than a few sets. But when I noticed myself getting bigger and when I noticed that even while taking in 5,000-6,000 calories my bf% didn't go up much, I knew that I was doing something right and that I wanted to continue packing on as much muscle as possible (without any supplements besides whey and occasionally creatine). Then I read "Dont Be A 165 Pound Weakling A Rally For The Strong", and it reinforced what I experienced and got me even more motivated.
My Current Stats:
~180 lbs.
~15% bf
Squat: 315
Bench: 240
Deadlift: 420
A Few Photos
(The blur sucks, but you get an idea of the size of my delts, which is all I care about for this shot)
I've always done set programs and followed them closely, but that just doesn't feel right any more. Lately, I just go to the gym and do whatever sets/reps feel right. The goal is 4 workouts per week, plus or minus 1 depending on how recovery goes. Lately, my elbows (especially the left one) have felt shredded, so it's a little bit touch and go in terms of rest days. Also, it makes the negative on heavy presses really difficult, so I've been using lighter weights.
Day 1: Squat + Flat Bench
Day 2: Deadlift + Incline Bench
Day 3: Squat + Flat Bench
Day 4: Deadlift + Standing Press
I'm limited on time, so I don't do accessory movements, just lots of sets on the 2 exercises. Even if I have time, I still prefer additional compound movements over single-joint movements.
Here is last week's workouts (I never record the warm-up sets, but I usually do around 4 with low reps):
Sunday, 1/27
Deadlift = 13,815 lbs.
a) 4 x 340
b*) 7 x 315
c) 5 x 10 x 205
*After this set, I'd planned on doing a set of 9 and a set of 11, but I tweaked my back on rep 3 of the set of 9. It was just some freak thing that while I was on rep 3, I kind of twitched and rounded my back for a split second (I was using 290). I don't know why this happened; I must've gotten distracted. I stopped the workout, walked 4-5 laps around the indoor track, and then decided it was worth returning to try a much lighter weight. I definitely couldn't have lifted anything remotely heavy, but the 5 x 10 x 205 was easy and didn't make my back feel worse (I actually think it helped make it feel better).
Press = 4,500 lbs.
a) 6 x 10 x 75
Monday, 1/28
Tuesday, 1/29
Squat = 12,125 lbs.
a) 4 x 225
b) 7 x 205
c) 9 x 185
d) 11 x 175
e) 4 x 10 x 155
Flat Bench = 9,740 lbs.
a) 4 x 185
b) 7 x 170
c) 9 x 155
d) 11 x 140
e) 10/10/10/9 x 125
Wednesay, 1/3
Thursday, 1/31
Deadlift = 15,390 lbs.
a) 4 x 340
b) 7 x 315
c) 9 x 290
d) 11 x 265
e) 3 x 10 x 210
Incline Bench = 9,080 lbs.
a) 4 x 175
b) 7 x 155
c) 9 x 135
d) 11 x 130
e) 10 x 120
f) 3 x 10 x 115

Sunday, 2/3
Squat = 12,785 lbs.
a) 5 x 6 x 205
b) 5 x 6 x 185
c) 7 x 155
I had wanted to do 10 sets of 6 with 225, but after my warmup sets, I knew that that wasn't going to happen. I used short rest pauses, ~1 min. That 7 x 155 was grueling; I was aiming for 10, but I was spent. I only attempted it because I'm in this habit of doing back-off sets, and even though I was tired, it felt weird ending on the last set of 6 x 185.
Flat Bench = 12,260 lbs.
a) 2 x 6 x 175
b) 2 x 8 x 135
c) 2 x 10 x 115
d) 6 x 10 x 95
I had wanted to do 10 sets of 6 with 175. Unlike squats, my warm up sets were solid. I went up to 215 for a single and felt like I could've done 3 reps pretty easily. But for some reason, I just didn't have it in me toward the back half of all these sets. My strength just drained so quickly, it was amazing. I banged out 6 x 10 x 135 about 2 weeks ago. I think the problem for me is taking too many days off; I felt stronger last Thursday. Also, I went out drinking all night Friday and then just sat around on Saturday (drank plenty of water and ate good). I still wanted to get in lots of volume, so I said screw it and threw on 95 lbs. for what was pretty much a second workout.
edit: wanted to take a break from measuring stuff for a few days, so I didn't do FitDay today.

Monday, 2/4
Deadlift = 18,010 lbs.
a*) 7 x 6 x 275
b) 3 x 6 x 245
c) 10 x 205
*Wanted to do 10 x 6 x 275. After set 7, though, I just knew that I didn't have it, so I dropped to 245 for the last 3 sets. I closed with a back off set with ~50% of my max (I was so spent, I could barely straighten out on the last 2 reps).
Press = 6,145 lbs.
a) 4 x 115
b) 7 x 100
c) 9 x 85
d) 11 x 70
e) 10 x 65
f) 10 x 60
g) 4 x 10 x 55
*Started out feeling really weak on my first 2 warm up sets, but my last set with 135 felt solid (could've gotten 3 easily). I had taken a bigger rest before doing 135. For the working sets, I took short rests, ~1 min.
*Meal 4 = post-workout

Tuesday, 2/5
My legs felt sore, but I didn't feel right taking a day off. It felt like a good day to do some light sets, which I haven't done in weeks. Surprisingly, my shoulders and tris didn't feel sore even after yesterday's high volume press workout, so I figured I'd do light, low-volume squats and a regular bench routine.
Squat = 6,150 lbs.
a*) 3 x 10 x 160
b) 10 x 135
*Based on how I felt, I was going to maybe try 6 sets of 10 with 160. I felt great during the warmup sets; lower back and glutes felt particularly strong in the hole, like I could sit down there all day supporting the weight. After the 3rd set of 10, though, I knew my quads were burned out, so I just wrapped up with a back off set with 135.
Bad news: thought I had a stress fracture in my right tibia a couple months ago (I did long walks, and my tibialis pretty much just stopped working), and I think I did and still do. Bit by bit it's getting sorer, and it's not muscle pain. It really flares up when I'm in the hole during squats. It's not too serious, but I'll have to start compensating for it soon or even stop squats and deadlifts altogether for a while. I'm hoping real hard that it doesn't come to that!
Bench = 7,500 lbs.
a*) 3 x 10 x 135
b) 3 x 10 x 115
*I thought I had 135 for 6 sets of 10. I've done it before pretty easily. Just like squats, the warmup sets felt great, but my stamina just completely disappeared after a few sets. I dropped to 115 and finished the sets, but I started feeling like I couldn't wait for the workout to end. I never feel like this. So yeah, it's definitely time for a day off. I'll probably even go light next time just like I did today.
*Meal 5 = post-workout

Wednesday, 2/6
I ride my bike ~4-8 miles ~4-5 times a week to work. It's flat, road surface riding. I don't have a set plan for the rides; if I feel like doing sprints, I do sprints, and if I feel like taking it easy, I go easy. Today was sort of middle intensity. I wanted enough to raise my heart rate and flex my legs but not cut into my strength for tomorrow's workout.
I don't count these rides as cardio, more like background metabolic activity. Just another small thing to get the blood flowing. Here's a pic of my bike:
I had a big chain ring put on. I forget how many teeth it is, but I remember that it's the same size as most outer rings on road bikes, which is huge for a single speed. Most single speeds/fixed gear bikes have mid-sized chain rings to create a balance between speed and ease of pedaling. I wanted a big one so that I could ride fast but also maybe make it more like a strength exercise than cardio.

Thursday, 2/7
Felt tired again today, but not as tired as Tuesday. My legs felt better before the workout. Even though I'd eaten my 3rd meal not long before I started lifting, it had already been digested, so I was lifting on an empty stomach, which made me feel even more exhausted. Felt a bit dehydrated, too. I was surprised to feel hungry and thirsty because, as you can see from my logs, I never lack for calories. Guess my metabolism is high right now.
Deadlift* = 9,000 lbs.
a) 10 x 210
b) 10 x 230
c) 10 x 250
d**) 10 x 210
*The warmup sets felt ridiculously heavy. I actually had trouble standing up with 365, which I usually blast through.
**I was gonna do a Pavel Tsatsouline-style progression where you cycle through the weights a couple times (210, 230, 250; 210, 230, 250). I knew that I could force my way through the last two sets, but it felt like a better idea to end at set 4. I didn't have the stamina that I've had for the past couple months, and I didn't want to grind through the workout. I think I need to take the next few workouts to deload lower body.
Incline Bench = 6,785 lbs.
a*) 10/10/10/10/10/9 x 115
*Just didn't have that last rep on the last set. Had to lower the bar to my lap and then to the floor. This workout should've been doable if not easy, so it's safe to say it's time to deload upper body, too.
I've been eating plenty, and my muscles don't feel overly sore, so I'm pretty sure that only leaves my CNS as the problem (although I've been getting less than 8 hrs. sleep recently). Next workout I intend to go even lighter than the last two, like maybe 3 x 10 x 135 squat and 3 x 10 x 115 flat bench. Both of those numbers are below 50% 1-RM for me, so it's very light.

Good post. Have you try rest longer. I'm doing an accumulation training for my bench days. 10 X 10 and my first set after warm up was at 275 and the last one at 255. Of course, I wait 3 minutes between sets. You may need to do the same and wait longer than a minute if you want to increase the weight. Also a good spotter to unrack the barbell and don't waist energy in this manner.
Nice excel chart!!

Comments about Emerson CF711AB, Pro Series II Antique Brass 50" Ceiling Fan with Light:
My husband and I purchased this to replace a 15-year-old ceiling fan whose motor had quit. We had it professionally installed and are amazed at how quiet it is. The antique brass finish is extremely pretty, as is the oak finish on the blades, and the frosted glass that houses the bulbs is lovely. It also has several features our old one did not, such as circulating in both directions and different lighting selections. Aside from two accent lamps, this is the only light source in our bedroom, and it provides adequate overhead light.Couldn't be more pleased with our purchase!
Hoping for better quality
By Light Sleeper

About Me Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
Although easy to install and attractive the fan still has the annoying 60 cycle humming noise that fans with lower end motors are plagued with. I am a light sleeper. The humming noise from this fan keeps me awake. I was hoping that Emerson had figured out how to produce a mid-level quality fan that doesn't have the hum. At least with this fan they haven't figured it out yet. The fan is wired directly to the switch with no dimmer on the circuit. I could have left the Hunter (which has a slightly louder hum) in place and saved a few dollars. Oh well, I guess I have no choice but to go with a higher end fan if I want to be rid of the "hum". I do have 2 higher-end Casablanca fans installed and they are absolutely quite (no humming).
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Emerson CF712ORB, Pro Series Oil-Rubbed Bronze 50" Ceiling Fan with Light:
I would have given this fan 5 stars...but it took time to get the wobbles and noise out. When you install the fan, if you have a problem with the wobbles and noise, you have to be patient to get them out. Of course we have an unusual ceiling, so that could have contribute to the problem. Otherwise, beautiful fan and great value for the money!

What Brings Your Team Back on Monday?
by Doug Dickerson
posted Jul 22 2013 10:10AM
On Monday mornings I am dedicated to the proposition that all men are created jerks. -
H. Allen Smith
In The 360° Leader, John Maxwell shares a humorous story about a turkey chatting with a bull. "I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree," sighed the turkey, "but I haven't got the energy."
"Well," replied the bull, "why don't you nibble on some of me droppings? They're packed with nutrients." The turkey pecked at a lump of dung and found that it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.
The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a fourth night, there he was proudly perched at the top of the tree. But he was promptly spotted by a hunter, who shot him down out of the tree. The moral of the story: BS might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there.
Monday morning can either be a day of dread or one filled with expectation for what lies ahead. As a leader what motivation do you bring to the office on Monday? What do you believe truly motivates your team to come back? Here are three qualities that will endear you to your team and them proud to be by your side.
A leader with a servant's heart
. A leader with a servant's heart is not absorbed in centering the organization on his or her needs, but in being a facilitator in order to make those around him successful. The mentality is not, "what can you do for me?" but rather, "what can I do for you?"
When you engage your team with a servants heart you will help them see and understand that you are about the big picture; not being the big person. Authentic servant leadership will have the team back on Monday if you dare to live it.
A leader with an open mind.
Martha Stewart said, "Without an open-minded mind, you can never be a great success." And this is at the heart of what makes your workplace enjoyable. When leadership is open-minded to new ideas, thinking outside the margins, and vesting trust in the team, great things are within your reach.
Strong morale is built upon a foundation of mutual respect and appreciation for the talent and gifts each person has invested. The leader with an open mind is smart enough to surround himself with the best and brightest and humble enough not to care who gets the credit. Keep an open mind and you will keep your team close. How open minded are you?
A leader with a clear vision
. Monday is the least of your worries if your team members do not have their hearts and minds wrapped around the vision and mission of what they are doing and why. A clear vision and mission are the two key ingredients that give your team a sense of purpose and direction.
Warren G. Bennis said, "Leadership is the ability to translate vision into reality." And this is the responsibility of your leadership; to map out the vision in clear terms that your team can embrace. When your team knows where they are going, why they are going there, and what the rewards will be, it is then they will buy-in and go there with you.
What brings your team back on Monday is a leader with a servant's heart; it is not about you. What brings your team back on Monday is a leader with an open mind; don't BS them. What brings your team back on Monday is a leader with a vision; share it.

After receiving approval for development from the Douglas County commissioners in July, Sterling Ranch took another step forward in late August as the commissioners unanimously approved a proposed governing structure.
With plans to break ground by the end of the year on a 12,050-home community — which will include 2.7 million square feet of commercial property, on 3,400 acres northeast of Roxborough State Park and south of Chatfield — the unincorporated development will be governed by the 11-member Sterling Ranch Community Authority Board.
The CAB, as it will be known, will be made up of five representatives from a management district and one property owner from each of the community's six financing districts. Each of the financing districts will be governed by a citizen-elected, five-person board, with one director from each district serving on the CAB.
The districts, working together, will take care of planning, financing and maintaining improvements throughout the community, including street improvements, traffic and safety controls, water, storm water drainage and sanitation improvements, parks and recreation, transportation and fire protection, among other services.
"Because of the size and nature of this development, we believe that the CAB board, and the districts working together through the CAB board, need to have the flexibility to provide all improvements the community should need," said Sterling Ranch attorney MaryAnn McGeady. "The districts would have, through the CAB board, the ability to phase construction to meet the needs of the development over time."
Once Sterling Ranch is established, there is a strong possibility that the districts will consolidate to one governing district, similar to how Highlands Ranch went from five metro districts originally to one, McGeady said. Unlike Highlands Ranch, however, there will not be a master homeowners association.
"The districts will have the authority to coordinate covenant enforcement and provide common areas and maintenance," McGeady said. "That is all anticipated to be paid out of property taxes, so there is not going to be an added fee for services. ... Those services may also include centralized trash collection and landfill service."
South Metro Fire Rescue and the Douglas County Sheriff's Office will provide Sterling Ranch with emergency services, and a hospital is in the community's master plan.
According to Sterling Ranch spokesman Randy Pye, there are no plans to incorporate once the community reaches build-out.
"Our residents will be provided services that are provided to all residents in unincorporated Douglas County through their property taxes," he said.
"The county can provide certain services, but services that go beyond what the county can provide is why we are organizing these districts," McGeady added. "We are excited about the details of this project and how we put this together."
Revenues that will fund metro district services will be collected from property taxes, system development fees, and public improvement fees, she said.
The estimated infrastructure costs for the life of the project are $800 million. The development was approved by the commissioners on Aug. 27 to carry a maximum of $1.8 billion in debt.

Fact file: Chevrolet Aveo RS show car
A Dynamic Hot Hatch that Hints at Next‑Generation Aveo
- Designed to appeal to young clientele
- Progressive, sporty design and personality
- Spacious and stylish interior with many personalization options
- 1.4L Ecotec turbo delivers exceptional fuel economy with performance when needed
|Key data
|Body style / driveline
|five-door, five-passenger, front-engine transaxle, front-wheel drive small car
|1.4L turbocharged DOHC I-4 with VVT (140 hp / 103 kW – est.)
|M32 six-speed manual
The Aveo RS show car is a sporty hot hatch, designed to appeal to a young clientele. It provides a preview of the next-generation Aveo. It has a wider stance than the current production Aveo, which makes it look much more aggressive. The Aveo RS demonstrates how progressive design can inject personality into a small car.
The Aveo RS show car is finished in electric Boracay Blue and wears Chevrolet design cues such as the two-tier horizontal grille, round tail lamps and fender flares. Exposed headlamps, with their brushed aluminum structural surround, are inspired by the designers' interest in motorcycles. The shape gets its energy from the diving belt and bodyside character line, well placed wheels, and the forward base of the windshield. At first glance, the car actually looks like a three-door hatch because the rear door handles are discreetly located in the "C"-pillar area.
The rear of the show car continues the sport theme, with an integrated spoiler, a center-mounted exhaust and chrome exhaust tips. The exposed rear tail lamps are again motorcycle-inspired.
The interior is matte black with gloss black, metallic and blue accents. The Electric Blue theme and the motorcycle inspiration are echoed inside with accent stitching across the dual cockpit instrument panel, ice-blue backlighting and the cool gauge cluster. The interior is as functional as it is stylish, with storage compartments in the center stack and doors. The rear seats fold flat for carrying larger items.
The Aveo RS is powered by a gutsy 140-horsepower 1.4-liter Ecotec turbocharged engine with a six-speed manual transmission.

Have you tried http://www.farnell.com/distributors/philippines.htm and http://philippines.rs-online.com/web/?
Your probably referring to this H bridge diagram, http://s.eeweb.com/members/von_wong/answers/1335122304-h-bridge.gif Or possibly a simple H bridge chip, http://www.elektroda.pl/rtvforum/files-rtvforum/ckt_mtr_1826.jpg
can i charge panasonic sla 6v battery (Panasonic LC-RB064P) by my 7.5v 500mA ac to dc adaptor?take note that the battery is 4ah and my charger has only 500mA....
If your following the first link I gave you then, tip 41, should be fine. But looking at the data sheet, its made for high voltage applications. Kinda overkill for your project. You may just want to get some 2n3904 or 2n3906 NPN transistors from RadioShack, or simply a H-bridge DC Driver IC.
The 2n5551 is fine, the maximum voltage it can handle is 160 volts, so 7 volts should be nothing to it.
Double check your wiring, and make sure only one side of the H bridge is on at a time.
That circuit will not work as it stands and may damage the lower transistor because there is no resistor to limit the base current. Put a 100 ohm resistor in series with the base of the upper transistor, and a 470 ohm resistor in series with the base of the lower transistor. Increase both the power supply voltage and the drive voltage to 5V. That will give you about 3V or 3.5V across the load.

The future is now.
Some might argue that Press Fit 30 is the way of the future. And after witnessing the recent renaissance of bottom bracket designs, we can at least declare it nouveau, if not futuristic. So, if you're seeking to upgrade to and engage with Press Fit 30, the Rotor Press Fit 4624 Bottom Bracket is the logical starting point.
This bottom bracket features sealed stainless steel bearings in order to minimize mechanical drag. Accordingly, your rolling resistance is lower, and thus your pedaling efforts are more efficient. The cups are made from a lightweight and durable aluminum, and the whole system tips the scales at around 144 grams.
The Rotor Press Fit 4624 Bottom Bracket is available in the color Black and accommodates a 24mm axle diameter.
- For use with 24mm-spindle cranks and PressFit 30 bottom brackets
- Stainless steel bearings
- Aluminum construction

Will the rotor press fit 4624 bottom bracket work on the air 9 carbon frame I just purchased from your site. Also what front shimano xt or xtr double derailler will work with this bike?
Thank you
This will work with that frame and any 24mm spindles. For the derailleur, you will need a 34.9 clamp on traditional pull for double.

I'm looking to run Shimano cranks in a Cervelo R3 w/ their "bbright" bottom bracket shell. Will this bb work for me?
Hello, this is the right fit with your Cervelo R3 and Shimano crankset. From Cervelo themselves "For Shimano & compatible cranks, use Rotor 4624 BBright bottom bracket (as shown in the Shimano selection in our pictures), or Wheels adapters in BBright's 30mm bearings.
So it turns out this is not the right version of the Rotor BB for a BBright frame. The bottom bracket listed here is the "regular" 4624 road, which works on frames with a 68mm bb shell: i.e., it will allow you to run cranks with 24 mm spindles, like Shimano, in PF30 frames.
Cervelo's BBright standard actually has a 79mm bb shell, and uses a different type of cup on the non-drive side. The Rotor part for this is "4624L".
Wrong picture of bb30 shimano road
- Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
Is the picture of the bb30 shimano road wrong? looks to me wrong
I want to know, cause when i pick from the options for shimano road, apears bbright option. Need shimano standar 4624, do you have it?

I have a 2013 Salsa Warbird, I want to run a set of Carbon Bontrager Cranks designed for external bearings with this frameset. Will this PF BB work for this application?
This BB is for an PF30 frame. It looks like the warbird is a BB86 frame so this won't work. Bontrager has made many many different cranks with many different BB standards so without taking it apart and taking many measurements, its impossible to tell exactly what it needs IF and ONLY IF your crank works with standard shimano BBs, then you need item SHI0513.
I think that mcm.43 is correct. This not the BB for a Cervelo! I ordered one, since I was assured that it was, and am getting concerned the CC wasted my time with bad information. I am really hoping this is NOT the case. I asked repeatedly if the BB that I ordered would work with Cervelo R3 2015 and GXP (Quarq Elsa RS GXP) via chat and was repeatedly assured that it would work. It does not look like the 4624 pictured at the Rotor site. And the Cervelo apparently requires the L version.

Dec. 13, 2013: Clarke University has been honored for participating in the inaugural President's Interfaith and Community Service Campus Challenge.Clarke was one of 242 schools cited by the White House for participation in the initiative, which was launched by President Obama in 2011. The President sent letters to the presidents of all institutions of higher learning in the U.S., inviting them to initiate or expand opportunities for their students to participate in community service with a component of interfaith engagement. To kick off the event, two national meetings were held along with 20 regional meetings, including one in Dubuque.Clarke responded to the President's challenge and was cited in the inaugural report on the program for the following:• Coordinating a large Into the Streets volunteer service day, during which students served in various venues, such as nursing homes, a clothes ministry and local rescue mission.• Organizing a Faith Fair, an opportunity for students to learn about other religions in a fair format. The event included representatives from the local Catholic, Nazarene, Jewish, Lutheran, Pentecostal and Evangelical Presbyterian churches.• Establishing RELIEF, a campus ministry student group made up primarily of students who are not Catholic and are advised by a Protestant minister who is a faculty member and adjunct campus minister.In a letter to the participating schools, President Obama stated that "by serving alongside each other as Christians and Jews, Hindus and Muslims, believers and non-believers, you are building bridges of understanding and reminding us that the principles uniting us as Americans are far more powerful than those that divide us."For more information, contact the Clarke University Marketing and Communication Office at (563)588-6318, or visit www2.ed.gov/about/inits/list/fbci for the complete report.Clarke University is a Catholic, liberal arts and sciences university dedicated to preparing students who positively impact their workplace, family and community.
