Watch Cosmo Alexandre's First Pro MMA Win
- Written by Dave Walsh
Cosmo Alexandre made his MMA debut a few weeks ago, and it was a tentative and downright terrible affair for all involved. His opponent was able to do enough to pull off the decision victory while Cosmo seemed afraid to let his hands go and open up the takedown. Sometimes in MMA it is just a matter of experience, or getting your sea legs. It doesn't matter how good you are in the gym, it is different in the ring. Cosmo has such a great standing skill set that his grappling was a clear weakness and had him worried, but come this weekend and his second fight, that was something of the past. Watch as Cosmo shows the MMA world what the Kickboxing and Muay Thai worlds already knew.

Raw peanut butter chocolate chip cookie recipe
Prep Time
Total Time
Shelf Life5 days in fridge
Rating4.8/5 (from 20 ratings)4.8
Yield14 small cookies
- 1 cup almonds
- 1 cup dates
- 1/3 cup tahini
- 2 1/2 tablespoons cacao nibs
- 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
Recipe Directions
- 1. Place almonds in food processor. Process almost into a fine meal. You are almost making "flour" out of almonds! Except don't go quite that far - leave a few tiny almond chunks.
- 2. Add dates to the food processor mixture - process again until well-combined.
- 3. Add tahini and salt to the the food processor mixture - pulse briefly until the tahini is well-distributed.
- 4. Transfer mixture to a large bowl. Add the cacao nibs and stir with a spoon to distribute.
- 5. Using your hands, form batter into 14 small cookie shapes (or, alternatively, form into balls).
- 6. Your cookies are ready immediately! (Store leftovers in the fridge.)
The Rawtarian's ThoughtsBy The Rawtarian
You'll note that there are no actual "peanuts" in these raw peanut butter cookies. This is because you should not be eating truly raw peanuts. Thus, we're using the tahini for a peanutty-flavor and the tiny chunks of almonds resemble the tiny chunks of peanut butter in chunky peanut butter!
The tahini (aka sesame seed butter) is the critical ingredient that holds this recipe together, thanks to its oily goodness :) (You can use runny cashew butter or almond butter instead of the tahini, but it won't quite taste as peanutty.)
I had a difficult time deciding whether to call for 1/3 or 1/2 cup tahini in this recipe. So I'd say it's somewhere between the two! If your cookies aren't holding together very well, add a little more tahini, one small spoonful at a time.
Also, a little warning about cacao nibs. So, you love chocolate, right? So you think you should add more cacao nibs than called for, right? Mmmmno wrong. You see, I love chocolate as much as the next crazy sweet-toothed raw vegan, but, you see, cacao nibs are not sweet. So if you add more than called for, you're turning a good cookie into a bitter cookie, mmkay? You have been warned, my pretties.
If you don't hava cacao nibs, you can use raisins instead for a peanut butter *raisin* cookie. Not quite as good as chocolate, but it works in a pinch!

For my info, why you say one can not eat raw peanuts? Thanks. I am going to try these ones..
Hi Anna!
Here's some details that I've compiled for you :) https://www.therawtarian.com/raw-peanuts-should-you-or-shouldnt-you
In short, they're not toxic, but they don't feel good in the gut, IMO. I have an iron stomach and can basically tolerate anything, but I have eaten raw peanuts and they just make me feel bad. And they are very easily rancid as well.

Raw peanut butter chocolate chip cookie recipe
Hi Laura-Jane,
I made them for Xmas this year( in advanced a bit), I didnt have chocolate chips, so I put 8 raw chocolate beans( originally put 10, but ate one out of curiosity and another out of greediness), since the beans are big and I chucked them in a processor- not reading the recipy well, I prroccessed them and the cookies came delicious anyway.I let big chunks of cocolate beans in cookies.Thanks again Laura-Jane.
Lol you are cute Adriana! I have eaten many things out of both curiousity and greediness myself - probably more the latter than the former :)
Thanks for sharing - good to know that they still came out yummy even with processed choco bits!

I used what I had on hand and did cashews for almonds and mulberries for dates. I love them!! I also added a splash of maple syrup. I am crazy about this recipe!!! The mulberries gave it a savory, rich flavor and the maple syrup made it sweet enough to be a breakfast cookie!!!!
Also, I dehydrated my cookies...very yummy!
I love this app! I can't wait to try out more recipes!
Erica, love your creativity! Yum! :)
OMG, these cookies are dangerously delicious. I used an ice cream scoop to for the cookies cause I'm not to good at forming .
Those must have been big cookies, yum! :)
Oct 17, 2014
Can you substitute dates for honey and if so what would the ratio be?
Hi Katie!
No, because the dates are necessary. Honey will add sweetness but not the stickiness and the bulk that the dates provides. So….. don't do it :) You could maybe use raisins instead and a dollop of honey for extra sweetness.
Hi. Could we use another nut buttre? Like almond butter or hazelnut butter? Thanks.
Yes, instead of the tahini any nut butter will do. Almond butter would work great.

Attorney to discuss closing of Guantánamo camp
Posted February 19, 2009; 01:03 p.m.
David Remes, a human rights attorney who has defended 16 detainees at the Guantánamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba, will deliver a lecture on the closing of the facility at 8 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 26, in Dodds Auditorium, Robertson Hall.
The talk, titled "The Challenge of Closing Guantánamo: Experiences and Reflections of a Guantánamo Habeas Lawyer," is sponsored by the Program in Law and Public Affairs.
Upon taking office last month, President Barack Obama signed an executive order calling for the closure of the detention camp at Guantánamo over the next year, reflecting concerns about living conditions and the legal status of detainees at the center.
Remes has been deeply involved in the litigation on behalf of Guantánamo prisoners since 2004. He represents 16 Yemenis and has made several visits to Yemen to press for his clients' release and brief their families. He was among the first lawyers to visit Guantánamo after the Supreme Court ruled in 2004 that the prisoners had a right to legal counsel.
Remes was among the lead counsel for the petitioners in Boumediene v. Bush, in which the Supreme Court ruled in 2008 that the prisoners have a constitutional right to challenge their detention in court. He also represented retired generals and admirals and coordinated the friend-of-the-court briefing in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld, in which the court ruled, in 2006, that President George W. Bush's military commissions were unlawful.
Remes was a longtime partner at the law firm Covington & Burling LLP in Washington, D.C., but in July 2008 gave up his partnership to found Appeal for Justice, a nonprofit firm dedicated to Guantánamo and other human rights litigation.

Ukraine must clarify status of Russian journalist
New York, August 12, 2014--The Committee to Protect Journalists calls on Ukrainian authorities to clarify the status of Andrei Stenin, the Russian photojournalist for the state news agency Rossiya Segodnya (previously RIA Novosti) who was reported missing on August 5 in eastern Ukraine. According to Russian news reports, Anton Gerashchenko, adviser to the head of Ukraine's Ministry of Internal Affairs, said Stenin had likely been detained by Ukraine's security service, or the SBU. Earlier, the SBU had denied holding Stenin. Gerashchenko also said that Stenin may be accused of "aiding and glorification of terrorism," the reports said. A short time later, Gerashchenko told Rossiya Segodnya that his comments had been taken out of context and that he was unaware of Stenin's whereabouts.

Got my first bird of the season this morning. It was also my first kill on video. Not the best video, but I couldn't move the camera cause I was holding the gun. The gobbler was 22lbs., 10 inch beard and 3/4 inch spurs. Not my biggest, but a good hunt. Had 3 other gobblers in the group but they stayed out at about 50 yards. We couldn't pull off the double.
Here is the link to the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfy0zyaU ... tube_gdata
Going out again in the morning to try to fill my nephews tag and call and video for him. We killed 3 birds today by 9am, so hopefully fill the last tag in the morning.
This bird has an interesting fan, never seen one like it with the stripe inside the lighter tips.

Totally agree.We were not there...we were given a book written by men for god. It does not tell the entire story, so we really don't know how life as we know it happened. We can make the bridge of faith that God created life from this book which I do. But god also gave us a brain and we have moved past the old testiment and trying to understand creation is not sinful. What is sinful is to hate your brother who thinks a little different than you.
But when science contradicts the bible I research it to find out what might be the problem ,, its either in my understanding or science may have being stretching it a bit. I discovered evolution a farse when it contradicted its own natural laws of science.

I love the Mathematical Odds of MACRO-Evolution.cool......consider a very simple putative organism composed of only 200 integrated and functioning parts, and the problem of deriving that organism by this type of process. The system presumably must have started with only one part and then gradually built itself up over many generations into its 200-part organization. The developing organism, at each successive stage, must itself be integrated and functioning in its environment in order to survive until the next stage. Each successive stage, of course, becomes statistically less likely than the preceding one, since it is far easier for a complex system to break down than to build itself up. A four-component integrated system can more easily "mutate" (that is, somehow suddenly change) into a three-component system (or even a four-component non-functioning system) than into a five-component integrated system. If, at any step in the chain, the system mutates "downward," then it is either destroyed altogether or else moves backward, in an evolutionary sense. Therefore, the successful production of a 200-component functioning organism requires, at least, 200 successive, successful such "mutations," each of which is highly unlikely. Even evolutionists recognize that true mutations are very rare, and beneficial mutations are extremely rare—not more than one out of a thousand mutations are beneficial, at the very most.
But let us give the evolutionist the benefit of every consideration. Assume that, at each mutational step, there is equally as much chance for it to be good as bad. Thus, the probability for the success of each mutation is assumed to be one out of two, or one-half. Elementary statistical theory shows that the probability of 200 successive mutations being successful is then (½)200, or one chance out of 1060.
The number 1060, if written out, would be "one" followed by sixty "zeros."
In other words, the chance that a 200-component organism could be formed by mutation and natural selection is less than one chance out of a trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion! Lest anyone think that a 200-part system is unreasonably complex, it should be noted that even a one-celled plant or animal may have millions of molecular "parts." source

Series offered on development opportunities in administration
A series of day-long workshops on professional development in administration is being offered by the Professional Development and Research arm of Binghamton University's School of Education and Human Development.
Each workshop focuses on a different aspect of how to develop administrative and supervisory skills and meets course requirements for the Certificate in Administration Program.
The workshop schedule and topics are:
• June 12 – Interpersonal Communications within Organizations. This hands-on workshop will focus on enhancing interpersonal skills for effective communication with staff, supervisors and peers. Utilizing participants' communication challenges, the class will learn how to use advanced listening skills, feedback and confrontation skills, and solution skills to communicate clearly and solve simple and complex interpersonal conflicts within their organizations.
The class will be taught by Karel Kurst-Swanger, assistant professor in the Department of Public Justice at SUNY-Oswego. Kurst-Swanger has also directed human service organizations and worked as a consultant with a number of Southern Tier agencies.
Tuition costs are $120.
• July 18 – Effective Board Development for Not-for-Profits. This participatory workshop will emphasize insight and skill building for managers who expect to work closely with boards of directors of not-for-profit (NFP) organizations. Current and prospective board members will also benefit from this session. Topics will include the purposes and functions of NFP boards, the roles of board members and staff and the elusive line between policy setting and management. Depending on the participants' interests, other board planning areas may be explored, such as agenda planning, committee structures, recruitment and prioritizing.
The class will be taught by Eric J. Lerner, an independent consultant on community and organizational development. Lerner has many years of experience working with community organizations as an agency executive, board member and elected official. He has served as associate director of Cornell University's Community & Rural Development Institute (CaRDI).
Tuition costs are $120.
• August 13 and August 20 – Writing Winning Grant Proposals. This workshop is intended for individuals with limited experience in grant writing. It will focus on the fundamentals of researching funding sources and writing a winning grant proposal. Participants will have the opportunity to work on an actual proposal and share ideas with other participants. Primary among the skills attained will be identifying components of a grant proposal and learning how to express the needs the grant will help meet.
The class will be taught by Allison Alden, director of the Professional Development and Research Division in the School of Education and Human Development at Binghamton University. She has taught for both the Division of Human Development and the Division of Education and has been active for over 15 years in grants administration and grant writing.
Tuition costs are $240.
• September 19 and 20 – Leadership Development. An organization benefits when its administrators have the ability and knowledge to work effectively with the staff--leading, motivating, delegating, and providing them with the means to complete their tasks. Participants in this class will learn these skills through various methods, including the transformational leadership model. They will evaluate their own leadership behaviors, and use this self-assessment as a basis for determining their own leadership self-development plans. Participants will leave with a clearer sense of how inspirational leaders influence workers to perform beyond ordinary expectations.
The class will be taught by Natalie Thompson, owner and principal consultant of Out of the Box Consulting. She has over 12 years experiences with nonprofit organizations.
Tuition costs are $260.
• October 17 – Closing the Ring: Linking Performance, Training, Compensation and Strategic Plans. How should important management concepts like performance, staff development, compensation and strategic planning interact and be linked to form a complete management tool? Through discussion, lecture and group activities, this course will discuss the relationships among these and present a logical format for integrating them. Specific examples of effective rubrics for evaluation, job evaluation forms and performance-based compensation plans will be shared and discussed. The class will be taught by David J. Karre, MBA, MLS, executive director and chief operating officer of the four county library system. Karre has over 15 years experience in top management positions and has been a visiting lecturer at the State University of New York at Buffalo.
Tuition costs are $130.
All sessions will run from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the Binghamton University campus. Continuing Education Units (CEU) are issued after the completion of each workshop. Continuing Professional Education Units for Public Accountancy (CPE) are offered for the Interpersonal Communications and Leadership Development courses and are issued after the completion of each workshop.

I retired at 44 from Ma Bell to stay home with my son and daughter now 6 and 4. grew up in a Huck Finn kinda way, playing in haylofts, farms and orchards in Ashland,Ma (that's all there was back then). fished for bluegills and trout in local streams and ponds with my trusty can of worms. started dabbling in flyfishing back in 82 or so, while living in Weymouth. fished rubbes spiders for panfish,bass and pickerel(sp?). I use to icefish in winter. we had a few iceless winters and I stopped fishing all year till about 1993 or so. I kept hearing about saltwater flyfishing and it caught my imagination. I bought a 9 wt. St. Crouix Imperial and finally used it a year later. it was a disaster, nada, zippo, skunk city!!! then one fateful night under the PowderPoint Bridge in Duxbury... BAM!!! fishon and fisherman hooked! :hehe:

Truman Foundation awards grant to Binghamton University
The Mildred Faulkner Truman Foundation of Owego, N.Y. has awarded a $15,000 grant to assist Tioga County students attending Binghamton University in the 2004-2005 academic year.
Since 1998, Truman Foundation scholarships have assisted over 200 Tioga County students enrolled at Binghamton University. In the current academic year, 153 full- and part-time undergraduate students who are Tioga County residents attend the University. Approximately 80 percent of these students qualify for financial assistance.
Mildred Faulkner Truman was born in Owego in 1897. She became a director of the Owego National Bank and the Tioga County Historical Society, and was a member of the First Presbyterian Union Church. Her husband, James Truman, practiced law in Owego.
Upon her death in 1983, Truman's estate established a foundation to support non-profit organizations serving Tioga County residents with grants for critical needs, aid for capital projects and seed money for special projects and programs.
To qualify for a Truman Foundation scholarship, students must live in Tioga County, be enrolled at Binghamton for the 2003-2004 academic year and have demonstrated financial need. Both traditional and non-traditional students, such as those over 25 years of age, are eligible for aid.
For more information or to apply for a Truman Foundation scholarship, students may contact the Student Financial Aid and Employment Office at Binghamton University at (607) 777-2428. A FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) form is required and can be obtained at any high school guidance office.

Your location: Home > > Reporting and review for Annex I Parties
Reporting and Review for Annex I Parties under the Convention and the
Kyoto Protocol
1) Overview of existing reporting and review requirements for Annex I Parties under the
Reporting by Annex I Parties under the Convention
Reporting and review requirements under the Convention encompass the following elements:
Reporting and review of national GHG inventories of Annex I Parties are based on reporting and review
guidelines (decisions 18/CP.8, 19/CP.8 and 14/CP.11). National GHG inventories are reported annually by
Annex I Parties following reporting guidelines agreed by the COP and methodology developed by the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). They are reviewed annually by ERTs following agreed
review guidelines. Reporting comprises a National Inventory Report (NIR) and Common Reporting Format
(CRF) tables. The NIR includes qualitative and qualitative information, such as a description of
methodologies used, emission factors, activity data and emission trends and analysis thereof, uncertainties,
quality assurance and quality control. The CRF tables include data and results from inventory
National communications are submitted by Annex I Parties every 4–5 years following decisions for each
submission by the Conference of the Parties (COP). They are prepared and reported periodically by Annex
I Parties based on agreed reporting guidelines (decision 4/CP.5). They are reviewed, within 1–2
years from the submission date, by international expert review teams (ERTs) following specific mandates
included in COP decisions. Also, the UNFCCC secretariat prepares the "compilation and synthesis
reports" on Annex I NCs, which are considered by the SBs and COP, as a basis for a substantive
discussion on the implementation of the Convention by Annex I Parties.
The COP, by decision 1/CP.16, decided that developed country Parties should enhance reporting in national
communications and submit biennial reports, which outline progress in achieving emission reductions and the
provision of financial, technology and capacity-building support to non-Annex I Parties, building on existing
reporting and review guidelines, processes and experiences. Decision 1/CP.16 also established a new process,
international assessment and review (IAR), under the Subsidiary Body for Implementation (SBI) for developed
country Parties that aims to promote the comparability of efforts among all developed country Parties with
regard to their quantified economy-wide emission limitation and reduction targets (link).
The detailed guidelines for the preparation of BRs contained in annex I to decision 2/CP.17 were adopted by
COP 17 in Durban. The COP also decided, among other things, that Developed country Parties shall submit the
first BR by 1 January 2014 and the second and subsequent BR two years after the due date of a full NC (i.e.
2016, 2020), and in the years when the full NCs are submitted, BRs can be presented either as an annex to the
NC or as a separate report.
Review for Annex I Parties under the Convention
The "Guidelines for the technical review of information reported under the Convention related to
greenhouse gas inventories, biennial reports and national communications by Parties included in Annex I to
the Convention" were adopted by Parties at COP 20 in Lima as contained in decision 13/CP.20. These
review guidelines provide a solid foundation for the technical reviews of national communications and
biennial reports under the new IAR process, as well as for the review of GHG inventories.
Reviews are co-ordinated by the secretariat and conducted by international ERTs. Reviews of GHG
inventories are conducted through centralized reviews and in-country reviews. In accordance with the
review guidelines, at least once in five years, the review of a Party's GHG inventory should be
conducted through an in-country review. The review guidelines also envisage an option of a desk review, but
this option has rarely been used. In-depth reviews of the national communications as a rule are
conducted through in-country visits. Reviews of biennial reports are conducted in conjunction with the
national communications when they are submitted in the same years. When biennial reports are not submitted in
the same years as the national communications, the reviews are conducted through centralized reviews.
The purpose of the review by ERTs is to provide a thorough and comprehensive technical assessment of the
implementation of the Convention by Annex I Parties, and to ensure that the COP has sufficient information to
carry out its responsibilities to review the implementation of the Convention. The outcome from the
reviews are is reflected in review reports, which are prepared under the collective responsibility of the
ERT. The draft reports are provided to the Parties for review and comments before their publication and
placing them on the UNFCCC web-page.
To ensure that the review process is comprehensive and rigorous, the secretariat has prepared training
courses for review of greenhouse gas inventories, biennial reports and national communications. Only experts
who successfully pass the examination can participate in the reviews.
More information on the training programme can be found here
2) Overview of existing reporting and review requirements for Annex I Parties under the Kyoto
Reporting for Annex I Parties under the Kyoto Protocol
As in the case of the Convention, the Kyoto Protocol imposes two regular, on-going reporting requirements for
Annex I Parties: an annual report and a periodic national communication. In both
cases, Parties should submit the information elements as required by the Convention and include additional
information related to the implementation of the Kyoto Protocol.
For the annual report, each Annex I Party is required to submit a national GHG
inventory, as required by the Convention, plus supplementary information on its
implementation of the Kyoto Protocol. This supplementary information covers:
Each Annex I Party must also provide the following supplementary information on its implementation of the
Kyoto Protocol in its periodic national communications:
In addition to the annual report and national communication, Annex I Parties had to submit two additional
one-time reports, namely the demonstrable progress report in the context of Article 3,
paragraph 2, and the initial report. A separate report covering the true-up
period should be submitted for that period. Figure 1 illustrates the four types of report that
are required from Annex I Parties under the Kyoto Protocol.
Initial reports had to be submitted by Annex I Parties by 31 December 2006 or one year after
the entry into force of the Protocol for the Party, and contained the following information:
The true-up period report, due at the end of the commitment period, is intended to enable the determination
of the Party's compliance with its Article 3, paragraph 1, commitment. This report must contain
final information on the Party's holdings of and transactions of Kyoto Protocol units, including all
units retired for compliance purposes.
Figure 1. Kyoto Protocol reports
Review for Annex I Parties under the Kyoto Protocol
Each report submitted by an Annex I Party is subject to review by international ERTs. Similarly to the review
under the Convention, the purpose of the review under the Kyoto Protocol is to provide a thorough technical
assessment of the Party's implementation of the Kyoto Protocol. and to ensure that the CMP has
sufficient information to carry out its responsibilities to review the implementation of the Kyoto Protocol.
The outcome from review is reflected in review report, which is prepared under the collective responsibility
of the ERT. The draft report is provided to Party for review and comments before its publication and placing
on the UNFCCC web-page.
However, the review process under the Kyoto Protocol is much more rigorous than the review under the
Convention. In particular, if the ERT identifies a problem with a Party's implementation of a
particular commitment that is not resolved by the Party during the review, the ERT has the authority to list
the problem as a 'question of implementation' in its final review report. An ERT
can raise questions of implementation only when there is an unresolved problem regarding implementation by a
Party of a mandatory commitment. All review reports, including those that do not list any questions of
implementation, are forwarded to the Compliance Committee for its consideration.
In contrast to the Convention, the ERTs have specific responsibilities with respect to the accounting of
emissions and assigned amounts. If an ERT is of the opinion that a Party's inventory is incomplete, or
has been prepared in a manner which is not consistent with the IPCC methodologies, IPCC Good Practice
Guidance for LULUCF, and the IPCC Good Practice Guidance and Uncertainty Management in National Greenhouse
Gas Inventories, it may recommend the application of an 'adjustment'.
During the annual review and in the true-up period, ERTs should assess reported information on holdings of
Kyoto Protocol units and on their transactions, and compare this information with that maintained by the
International Transaction Log (ITL). ERTs should also review any information on problems identified by the
ITL. If an ERT identifies a problem with a particular transaction, it may recommend a
'correction' to the Kyoto units. A correction is analogous to an inventory
adjustment. However, whereas adjustments are applied to inventory estimates, corrections are applied to a
Party's holdings of Kyoto Protocol units.
To ensure that the review process is comprehensive and rigorous, similarly to the approach taken under the
Convention, the secretariat has prepared training courses for review under the Kyoto
Protocol. In addition to the training under the Convention GHG inventories, these courses include training on
the national system, national registry, accounting for the assigned amount and review of information reported
under Article 3, paragraphs 3 and 4. It organizes training of experts that is performed through on-line
courses for those experts that have already taken the Convention courses and successfully passed the
examinations. Only experts who successfully pass the examination can participate in the annual reviews.
Reporting and review for Annex I Parties under the Kyoto Protocol and linkages to compliance
The fundamental difference between the reporting and review system under the Convention and
under the Kyoto Protocol is that the latter is linked to compliance. Given the
binding nature of emission targets, e.g. QELROs, any problem relating to these targets,
identified through the reporting and review system, should be considered by the Enforcement Branch of the
Compliance Committee. In addition, the Enforcement Branch considers any issues related to
eligibility to participate in the Kyoto Protocol mechanisms. Any unresolved question of
implementation that affects the eligibility requirements, for example a question related to the national
system and national registry, can lead to the suspension of eligibility until this question has been
Any consideration and decision by the Enforcement Branch of the Compliance Committee is reported to the
Figure 2 summarizes the main reporting and review requirements under the Convention and the Kyoto
Protocol. For the Kyoto Protocol it shows the linkages between the reporting and review system and
3) Existing reporting and review methodologies, guidelines and requirements
A large number of guidelines underpin the operationalization of the reporting and review requirements under
the current climate change regime, which are primarily applicable to Annex I Parties. The reporting and
review guidelines are prepared by the subsidiary bodies to the Convention and adopted by COP or CMP through
decisions. For GHG emission inventories the guidelines usually include reference to the guidelines prepared
by the IPCC as a methodological basis for GHG inventory preparation.
Most of these guidelines are technical in nature, extensive in scope and complex in content, which reflects
the complexity of the relevant issues and processes, such as the preparation of national GHG inventories or
reporting on national policies and measures, and financial assistance. The existing guidelines and the
related key methodological documents are listed below.
For national GHG inventories, the key documents are:
For national communications, the key documents are:
The elements of additional reporting that is required from Kyoto Protocol Annex I Parties,
including accounting information, are defined through the following documents and decisions:1
For biennial reports, the key documents are:

New Procedure May Aid Stubborn High Blood Pressure »
"Dec. 18, 2012 -- People who can't get their high blood pressure down with drugs may be helped by a new procedure that deactivates overactive nerves in the kidneys, a small study shows.
The procedure is already available in Europe and "...
Read the New Procedure May Aid Stubborn High Blood Pressure article »
Cartia XT
Cardiac Conduction
Diltiazem prolongs AV node refractory periods without significantly prolonging sinus node recovery time, except in patients with sick sinus syndrome. This effect may rarely result in abnormally slow heart rates (particularly in patients with sick sinus syndrome) or second- or third-degree AV block (13 of 3290 patients or 0.40%). Concomitant use of diltiazem with beta-blockers or digitalis may result in additive effects on cardiac conduction. A patient with Prinzmetal"s angina developed periods of asystole (2 to 5 seconds) after a single dose of 60 mg of diltiazem (see ADVERSE REACTIONS).
Congestive Heart Failure
Although diltiazem has a negative inotropic effect in isolated animal tissue preparations, hemodynamic studies in humans with normal ventricular function have not shown a reduction in cardiac index nor consistent negative effects on contractility (dp/dt). An acute study of oral diltiazem in patients with impaired ventricular function (ejection fraction 24% ± 6%) showed improvement in indices of ventricular function without significant decrease in contractile function (dp/dt). Worsening of congestive heart failure has been reported in patients with preexisting impairment of ventricular function. Experience with the use of diltiazem hydrochloride in combination with beta-blockers in patients with impaired ventricular function is limited. Caution should be exercised when using this combination.
Decreases in blood pressure associated with diltiazem therapy may occasionally result in symptomatic hypotension.
Acute Hepatic Injury
Mild elevations of transaminases with and without concomitant elevation in alkaline phosphatase and bilirubin have been observed in clinical studies. Such elevations were usually transient and frequently resolved even with continued diltiazem treatment. In rare instances, significant elevations in enzymes such as alkaline phosphatase, LDH, SGOT, SGPT, and other phenomena consistent with acute hepatic injury have been noted. These reactions tended to occur early after therapy initiation (1 to 8 weeks) and have been reversible upon discontinuation of drug therapy. The relationship to diltiazem is uncertain in some cases, but probable in some (see PRECAUTIONS).
Diltiazem hydrochloride is extensively metabolized by the liver and excreted by the kidneys and in bile. As with any drug given over prolonged periods, laboratory parameters of renal and hepatic function should be monitored at regular intervals. The drug should be used with caution in patients with impaired renal or hepatic function. In subacute and chronic dog and rat studies designed to produce toxicity, high doses of diltiazem were associated with hepatic damage. In special subacute hepatic studies, oral doses of 125 mg/kg and higher in rats were associated with histological changes in the liver, which were reversible when the drug was discontinued. In dogs, doses of 20 mg/kg were also associated with hepatic changes; however, these changes were reversible with continued dosing.
Dermatological events (see ADVERSE REACTIONS) may be transient and may disappear despite continued use of diltiazem. However, skin eruptions progressing to erythema multiforme and/or exfoliative dermatitis have also been infrequently reported. Should a dermatologic reaction persist, the drug should be discontinued.
Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment Of Fertility
A 24-month study in rats at oral dosage levels of up to 100 mg/kg/day and a 21-month study in mice at oral dosage levels of up to 30 mg/kg/day showed no evidence of carcinogenicity. There was also no mutagenic response in vitro or in vivo in mammalian cell assays or in vitro in bacteria. No evidence of impaired fertility was observed in a study performed in male and female rats at oral dosages of up to 100 mg/kg/day.
Category C. Reproduction studies have been conducted in mice, rats, and rabbits. Administration of doses ranging from five to ten times greater (on a mg/kg basis) than the daily recommended therapeutic dose has resulted in embryo and fetal lethality. These doses, in some studies, have been reported to cause skeletal abnormalities. In the perinatal/postnatal studies, there was an increased incidence of stillbirths at doses of 20 times the human dose or greater.
There are no well-controlled studies in pregnant women; therefore, use diltiazem in pregnant women only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Nursing Mothers
Diltiazem is excreted in human milk. One report suggests that concentrations in breast milk may approximate serum levels. If use of diltiazem is deemed essential, an alternative method of infant feeding should be instituted.
Pediatric Use
Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established.
Geriatric Use
Clinical studies of diltiazem did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy.This monograph has been modified to include the generic and brand name in many instances.

Concerns about his coverage ability exist only because he was not asked to do it. He has good speed, agility, smarts and toughness. To say he is going to be a 2 down LB is just tunnel vision. He was quoted this week at the Senior Bowl " I want to showcase everything I know I'm good at and showcase the things people have said I am not good at. People don't think I'm good at pass coverage. I have never really had a true chance to showcase that I can play on passing downs." I guess we will have a better gauge to decide what he can bring to the table after the Senior Bowl but right now it's a bit premature to label him a run only 2 down backer.
I think your overrating his agility straight line speed is good but he is kind of tight hipped . I think he would be better off in a 3-4 where he wouldnt cover as much ground. Funny thing is he probably would be the best MLB on the Giants LOL

- 12 Comments
Happy Friday everyone! For our first Friday of of the last month of 2009, and our biggest Poster Friday collection ever (separated into two parts), we've again gathered the latest posters to come out for this week's poster round-up.
I took a holiday last weekend (a rare event) so that means Screen Rant's wall this week now includes two weeks worth of new one-sheets separated among two posts. This set (part one) includes Star Trek, The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond, Cash, Main St., The Electric Slide, The Devil's Double, The Horseman, Nine, A Single Man, District 13: Ultimatum, The Road, The Lovely Bones, The Wolfman, Avatar, Greenberg and 44 Inch Chest.
We also have a little bonus for Thor.
Let's get to it.
To start, here's a cool looking retro poster for Star Trek featuring the original Enterprise that started it all. The image comes from Star Trek: Art of the Film.

The rectum is the final portion of the large intestine. It empties stool from the body through the anus. The rectum is anchored in position by ligaments. When these ligaments weaken, the rectum can move out of its normal position, downward, and pass through the anus. This is called rectal prolapse.
Rectal prolapse may be partial, involving only the mucosa or complete, involving the entire wall of the rectum. Children with myelomeningocele and bladder exstrophy as well as children with cystic fibrosis are particularly at risk. Rarely it can be caused by acute diarrhea or straining while passing constipated stool.
Most cases of prolapse do not require surgical correction. Infant prolapse often disappears without intervention.
Rectal prolapse repair is advised for a continued rectal prolapse that does not clear up or is unresponsive to treatment of an underlying condition.
General anesthesia is used and the patient is deep asleep and pain-free. The surgeon makes an incision near the base of the spinal column (coccyx), and identifies the pelvic floor (perineal) support structures. The lower rectum is sutured to the puborectalis muscle for support, while the upper part of the rectum is pulled up and sutured to the sacrum.
The surgery is usually effective in repairing the prolapse. The long-term prognosis is excellent.
Usually only 1 or 2 days of hospitalization is all that is required. Expect complete recovery within 4 weeks.

the purpose of the trust metric is to certify that a given user account on Advogato is known by the Advogato community to actually belong to the individual who claims it and is known to be a member of the free software and open source community.
Certifying random spammers because you feel like it doesn't meet the purpose. You are of course free to use the trust metric for something different to its stated purpose, but don't be surprised if you get "exiled" as a spammer when you insist on certifying spammers. If you happen to know someone is who they claim to be, and they're a real member of the open source community, write a diary entry to say so, telling other users they're not an annoying spammer, even though they have an obviously computer-generated name!
FWIW, a spam rating of 9 does not mean 9 people rated you, users with a Master cert add 3 to a spam rating, Journeyers add 2, and Apprentices add 1, reflecting the trust the community places in people with a higher rating. So it only takes three Masters to take a spam rating to 9. I haven't rated you as a spammer because I recognised your username and think you should get a second chance to participate in the community, but if you continue to certify obvious spammers I will use my +3 spamhammer :)

AlignIT: Manager Tech Talk Video #2: Straight Talk About Windows Azure
About This Video
By now, you've heard the term "Cloud", but what does it actually mean to your developers and architects, your IT staff, and your organization. For developers and architects, the Cloud is a flexible and familiar environment to easily create and host applications that can have nearly infinite scale. For IT staff, the Cloud means on-demand computing with the right infrastructure to host, scale, and manage all your services with ease and speed. For your organization, it means being always available and being global while cutting down on maintenance and operational overhead costs by paying for a service.
But at the end of the day, what does that all mean? How do you transition from the way things are today to a Cloud model? In this episode of AlignIT Manager Tech Talk video series, Jonathan Rozenblit and I sit down with Joel Varty, Director of Research and Development at Agility CMS in Toronto, Ontario, and talk about moving to the Cloud. The discussion focuses around the business problems Windows Azure can solve, the opportunities that can arise, and what it takes to transition developers, architects, and IT staff from traditional application development to the Cloud. Joel shares how he worked with his team to get up to speed on Cloud development and their strategy for moving applications to the Cloud.

The Align IT program is dedicated to keeping IT leaders informed about what really matters in business and technology. We do that through in-person events, web casts, podcasts, our blog and of course, this video series. You can find more information about the Align IT program at www.alignit.ca.

Peace and justice groups often get stuck when trying to come to consensus on which specific social sin their parish should address. Racism, sexism, classism, and threats to the environment are all worthy starting points for groups to begin working toward creating more just relationships in their communities. But where to start?
Caritas In Veritate (Benedict XVI, 2009) assists peace and justice groups in this crucial discernment process. What follows are just two principles from Caritas In Veritate which guide concerned parishioners as they consider the particular needs of their community:
Locally here in Chicago, I am amazed as I witness the incredible passion, zeal and enthusiasm of youth and young adults as they integrate the principles of Catholic social teaching into their lives. Service trips, advocacy work on behalf of immigrants, the unborn, and volunteering at homeless shelters and soup kitchens represent just a few ways young people are making a difference in our Archdiocese. These types of experiences are central in the shaping and forming of religious identities of youth today.
As program director for justice education my hope is founded on parish life, where youth can partner with adults to inspire the entire community to imagine and discover new ways to live more integral lives. The parish is the place where we reflect on, judge and act upon the principles of Catholic social teaching (common good, subsidiarity, solidarity and dignity of the human person). Prior to accepting my new position, I was privileged to serve as youth ministry coordinator for four years.
If your parish is interested in strategizing on creative ways to couple the inspiring enthusiasm of the youth with the wisdom of adults in social justice ministry, please feel free to contact me at 312 534 3890 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Today's youth lack the experience of true freedom in the urban communities. The constant gang violence has put our law abiding youth at a great disadvantage; the lack of activities and structure for them has all but dissipated into apathy. Therefore I applaud your (Catholic Church as well as other organizations) efforts, to get the communities back on track. I would love to see the day when today's youth would be able to experience the freedom of riding a bike from 87th and Stony Island Ave. to the loop without being threaten, shot at or robbed. Sincerely Kim Williamson

It is so heartening to read of the response of today's youth to today's challenges. It warms my heart! Prodded by the bold stance of the Church on peace and justice, they seem to be moving in the right direction...away from a purely consumer mentality and back to the basics of love and service.Many years ago, I wrote a children's song called "I See A New World." (published by World Library Publications.)I see a new world coming soon, where people share their pain.I hear a new world coming soon,where peace and justice reign.I feel a new world coming soon,where your song will be mine.I smell a new world coming soon.There's blossoms on the vine.Though our challenges are many, I do smell the blossoms. Keep calling us back to our best selves - our Christ-selves. It is what will save us.

My addiction to turkey hunting is getting to me in a bad way. I haven't hunted them in a month and Im getting the sweats, cold chills, and the sshakeeess. I had a dream last night that I had gobblers all around me but every time I pulled the trigger the paper came out of my barrel that says bang like the cartoons.So at 2 am I go down to the basement and get all my calls out and start playing with them. I guess I was really getting into it because my wife came down with the frying pan. Next thing I know its 7 am and now I have a head ache and a big lump on the back of my head. Im assuming that a gobbler whooped my butt in my dream again. :lol:
I dont know why the bug is getting so bad this year but I need a fix. My season doesn't start till April 13th and it's not getting here fast enough. Maybe I can test some new products from ACME to help me get over my addiction. Is anybody else having the same trouble?

About Global Governance & Human Biotechnology
Several important international bodies have adopted human biotechnology policies, though most regulation takes place at the national level.
International organizations have taken strong stands to prevent human reproductive cloning and inheritable genetic modification. The Council of Europe's Convention on Human Rights and Biomedicine (1997)the most authoritative international agreement to datebans inheritable genetic modification, human reproductive cloning, and research cloning while also regulating other human biotechnologies.
UNESCO, the European Parliament, the Group of Eight industrial nations, the World Health Assembly, and the United Nations have also adopted various prohibitions on human reproductive cloning.

Detectives identify serial bank robber
SPOKANE, Wash. - Spokane County Sheriff's deputies have identified a serial bank robber they think is responsible for at least four recent heists in the area.
Detectives say Brian Douglas Sheldon, 40, liked to use disguises and notes to demand cash from tellers, often in out of the way locations. At a bank in Rockford, Sheldon allegedly robbed the branch not once but twice, and it was there that an alert teller got a good license plate number on the getaway vehicle.
Sheldon was arrested in that same vehicle in Hayden, Idaho a few hours after the bank heist.Serial bank robber ID
Before it was all over sheriff's major crimes detectives had a photo collage of Sheldon as he sported a variety of looks allegedly knocking off local banks.
"Once we were able to put the photos on our social media sites we started receiving a lot of tips and this is just an example of what happens when citizens get engaged with their law enforcement," Spokane County Sheriff Ozzie Knezovich said.
Tipsers identified the man as Sheldon, and as soon as detective Kirk Keyser ran his record he saw Sheldon had been responsible for seven bank robberies in Spokane back in 2001.
"Many of those bank robberies followed criminal behavior and criminal patterns that we saw in this series of robberies," Keyser said.
Specifically, that Sheldon liked banks doing businesses inside grocery stores. Back in 2001 Sheldon demanded cash with notes in the hopes of not drawing attention to himself.
"Most of them were done with notes that indicated specific threats during the bank robberies … and those corresponded with the bank robberies that were occurring this year," Keyser said.
Sheldon is also a person of interest in a takeover robbery at Poppy's Tavern in Spokane Valley, where the suspect tied up the bartender before stealing her purse and till.
Sheriff Knezovich said some criminals just can't be rehabilitated and if they're not behind bars they're breaking the law.
"This is another prime example of someone with a criminal history who spent time in prison and upon his release [is] back out victimizing society," he said.
Despite an 87-month prison term Sheldon apparently didn't learn his lesson about bank robberies. So now, once he's extradited from Idaho to Washington, he'll be prosecuted federally. When you add a felon in possession of a firearm charge to the list of charges Sheldon's facing it's very possible that if convicted he could be spending the rest of his life in prison.

Democracy Can Still Deliver
Democracy is going through a rough patch. Freedom House reports that the number of democracies around the world has retreated in recent years. The frightening turbulence in countries struggling to transition to democracy such as Egypt and Thailand makes clear how difficult that process is. And with economic malaise persisting in many democracies while growth still surges in autocratic China, more than a few people wonder whether it's even worth bothering with democracy and all its political dysfunctions. Can democracies effectively meet the aspirations of citizens in today's complex world? Read more »

Amazing but true: each year since 1989, the tireless curatorial team at the DeCordova Museum and Sculpture Park have scoured the New England area, visiting studios and labs, touring exhibitions and installations, poring over slides, and now CDs and DVDs, to put together a show highlighting artists from the area, exhibited together under the same roof by virtue of their individual talents rather than by any particular shared thematic content, media, or formal concerns. "The 2006 DeCordova Annual Exhibition," which opens April 29 (with an opening reception on May 4), offers work by 11 artists and one collaborative duo, from Maine, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island, in media that include cast bronze, talking mirrors, great expanses of pinned objects, and paint on canvas.
A feature of the DeCordova Annual is that satisfying associations and cross-pollinations seem to emerge organically. Everyone makes his or her own connections; I found interactions between technology and biology — in the form of images of genetic manipulation, biomorphic forms, references to scientific methodology and notational systems, freaky hybrids and intense exchanges between man and machine — in different ways in works by Alexander Ross, Evelyn Rydz, Jen Simms, the team of Gretchen Skogerson and Garth Zeglin, and Naoe Suzuki.
The implications of rapidly advancing technology for visual artists was also a hot topic in the fall of 1966, when Bell Laboratories physicist Billy Kluver organized a series of performance events that paired artists including composer John Cage, artist Robert Rauschenberg, and filmmaker, dancer, and choreographer Yvonne Rainer with Bell Lab engineers over the course of nine evenings at the 69th Regiment Armory in New York. Opening at MIT's List Visual Arts Center on May 4, "9 Evenings Reconsidered: Art, Theatre, and Engineering, 1966" brings that happening to life again through works of art, drawings, and film and photo documentation of the original performances.
Also on May 4, MIT presents an opportunity to look at dance and moving image in contemporary art in "Choreographic Turn." American-born, London-based artist Daria Martin's 16mm film "Soft Materials" documents an improvisational dance between two humans and some state-of-the-art robots. It'll be shown along with an expansive video installation, whenever on on on nohow on/airdrawing , created by German artist Peter Welz in collaboration with dancer/choreographer William Forsythe. Welz filmed Forsythe's movements, in this case inspired by the cadences found in Samuel Beckett's late writings, using five cameras; viewers experience the work projected on five large screens that fill the gallery.
