Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) awarded Sustainable CUNY, of The City University of New York (CUNY), the prestigious 2012 Environmental Quality Award for its effort to support large scale solar adoption as lead for the NYC Solar America City Partnership (Partnership). Each year, the EPA honors those who have demonstrated an outstanding commitment to protecting and enhancing environmental quality and public health.
The environmental and energy challenges of New York City are complex and interwoven with the infrastructure and the economy of America's largest city. Energy requirements for peak electricity demands on NYC's grid continue to rise, yet regulations require that the majority of NYC's peak electricity demand be supplied from within city limits, posing environmental concerns. The widespread adoption of renewable energy and efficiency habits can help address these concerns. The Partnership – comprised of The City University of New York, the Mayor's Office of Long Term Planning and Sustainability, and the New York City Economic Development Corporation – won a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) to design and build the NYC Solar Map, as part of a comprehensive solar plan for NYC. Additional funding was provided by the City of New York and the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA), with technical support provided by Con Edison.
Financially, technically and environmentally, the NYC Solar Map makes it clear that solar energy is a viable option for NYC and further supports PLaNYC goals to foster the market for renewable energy, which is part of the overarching mission to achieve a 30% reduction in Green House Gas (GHG) emissions by 2030. The focused initiative of the Partnership has helped lead to an 800% increase of solar energy capacity in New York City since 2007 while the number of NYC Solar installation companies has quadrupled.
"As the nation's leading urban public university, CUNY is proud to be working with our City and State partners to influence a transformational and measurable change in the use of clean, renewable energy in New York City," said Tria Case, the lead implementer of the solar plan for NYC and The City University Director of Sustainability. The Environmental Quality Award is the highest award the EPA presents to the public and was accepted by Ms. Case, along with Sergej Mahnovski, Director of Energy Policy for the NYC Mayor's Office; John Mucci, Vice President of Manhattan Operations for Con Edison; Michael Colgrove, Director of NYC Office, NYSERDA, and Ron Spalter, Deputy COO for CUNY.
The Map displays granular information on the solar potential of every one of NYC's one million buildings, including how much solar can be installed, how much power that will generate, how much can be saved on their annual electricity bill, how many pounds of carbon emissions they can reduce each year, and what the equivalent that would be in planting trees. The map was built at the Center for Advanced Research of Spatial Information (CARSI) at CUNY's Hunter College and combines data gathered with aerial lasers known as "Light Detection and Ranging" (LiDAR) and sophisticated mapping technology.
CUNY, on behalf of NYC and with the support of over 30 organizations, recently won a third consecutive award from the Department of Energy through its SunShot Initiative "Rooftop Solar Challenge," part of a national effort to make solar energy cost competitive with other forms of energy by the end of the decade. Details of the Solar Monitoring, Analytics, Road Mapping and Tracking NY (SMART NY) plan to make solar energy more accessible and affordable for residents and businesses by driving down the administrative costs will be presented at the NYC Solar Summit on June 7, 2012.
The City University of New York is the nation's leading urban public university. Founded in New York City in 1847 as The Free Academy, the University has 24 institutions: 11 senior colleges, seven community colleges, the William E. Macaulay Honors College at CUNY, the Graduate School and University Center, the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism, the CUNY School of Law, the CUNY School of Professional Studies and the CUNY School of Public Health. The University serves over 271,000 degree credit students and 269,808 adult, continuing and professional education students. College Now, the University's academic enrichment program, is offered at CUNY campuses and more than 300 high schools throughout the five boroughs of New York City. The University offers online baccalaureate degrees through the School of Professional Studies and an individualized baccalaureate through the CUNY Baccalaureate Degree. More than 1 million visitors and 2 million page views are served each month by www.cuny.edu, the University's website.

Report form France
I'm in Poitiers, France now. Yesterday I ran a day of Zen for 10 people at my friend Arnaud's house here. It was very interesting and very tiring.
The people who attended the event were not zennies for the most part. I know at least one of them had done zazen at a Zen temple setting before. I think the others had done zazen but only as parts of other forms of meditation. Some were students of another guy named Arnaud, Arnaud Desjardins who was an interesting spiritual teacher here in France. He was trained in the Advaita Vedanta tradition by a teacher named Swami Prajnapad. But he also sat zazen with Deshimaru. So he taught that as well. Arnaud passed away in August. So his loss is still keenly felt by his students.
Some others were students of an American teacher named Lee Lozowick who based himself in France. Lee is the author of a book called Zen Trash: The Irreverent and Sacred Teaching Stories of Lee Lozowick. They gave me a copy yesterday. I haven't read it, but I like the title. Lee passed away last year, so his loss is also still keenly felt by his students.
They were a pretty sincere group. I liked hanging out with them for the day. But this was only my second try at improvising a day of Zen Lite for people who were interested enough in zazen to want to do a day-long event but too inexperienced to feel up to handling the rigors of sitting zazen over & over & over & over for the entire day.
Lots of Zen teachers would just say, "Screw 'em if they can't deal with it!" and make the participants do a full-on day-long sitting. That's what my teachers did. That's what they'll do if you go to places like San Francisco Zen Center or pretty much any training center in Japan such as Antaiji.
But I'm trying out something new here. So far the results have been just sort of OK as far as I'm concerned. The problem is that it's too damned exhausting for me to do three hours straight of dharma discussion with a group. So I need to find other activities that will work and still not be too goofy. I'll keep you posted on my progress.
The day before that, Friday, I was the guest at a soirée (literally) held by Giles Farcet author of The Anti-Wisdom Manual: A Practical Guide To Spiritual Bankruptcy. I gave this book a glowing review last year. Maybe I'll dig that review out and put it back up here. Although I think they should re-publish it with a catchier title like How To Ruin Your Spiritual Life and a funnier cover.
I gotta run. But I've included some photos from France. The first is to prove to my friends in Montreal that the stop signs here in France say "stop" not "arret." And that Kentucky Fried Chicken is called KFC here, not PFK*. The final photo is to prove to the world that there is no such thing on the French McDonald's menu as a Royale With Cheese. But there are several sandwiches called "Royal" including the "Royal-o-Fish" and the "Royal Deluxe."
*Actually everybody in Montreal knows this already. So the photos are provided for them to show the language police up there.

Alcamat needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 82 designs submitted by 18 freelance designers.
The Candy Van
We are a small start-up Sydney based business looking to service large business and conference centers with unique candy lines. How many times have you been to meetings just to get the same old boring mints!
Our dream is to franchise this model! Help us make it a reality!
We aim to initially target offices, hotels and conference centers. Over time we will expand the business to include domestic parties and special events.
We are looking for a logo that best represents who we are and what we do.
What is important to us is to:
1. No cartoons or characters in the logo
2. Highlight the words "Candy Van" and leave "The" text in a smaller font.
3. Pick up on the swirl effect of a lollipop. This could either be as a logo element on it's own or worked into the text.
4. Keep colors to a minimum (no rainbows) - we like Candy colors like Musk Pink, Lime Green, Cherry Red (don't limit yourself)
5. Include a tag line "Candy 2U"
To give you a visual - think of the old VW retro flower power combi van with a modern twist, and this is how we want our vans to look on the streets.
Feel free to be creative on all of the above with the exception of point 1.

> Where can I download a missing header file?
This item was added on: 2003/01/28
This one seems to bother a lot of people.
You can't just get the header file. A header file is just a pointer to the .lib. Have you ever looked in a header? Not much actual code going on in there is there? It's just all #define THISTHING and extern _SOMEWEIRDCOLLECTIONOFLETTERS. So, you say, "Can i have the lib too?" Sadly, no. Its copyrighted. Dont you just hate that? And chances are that if you don't have the library already, it wont work with your compiler.
Not any good ones. Any functions that are found in the header you're looking for will probably be available to you with your own headers. It may not be exactly the same but most functions are pretty universal. I'm afraid you'll have to search your help and include files. But we're all pretty used to that by now. (If files could get worn out, my help file would be a hole in the floor.)

Well, your guess is as good as mine.
Did anyone else catch Robyn's explaining that the 'car' was a 'bonus' Kody earned for THEIR work at a 'marketing' company. Interesting to know that we can just leave off the words Multi Level and just go with the Marketing to describe LIV International. It's so deceptive, don't you think? Kody can barely string 3 coherent sentences together in an interview, so I can just imagine one of his 'marketing' presentations. I hope Meri's driving that car, because she is the driving force behind that bonus car!
What is WRONG with these people?
But before I answer that question, let's get on to the first date, with Meri.
Kody even admits...he is a lousy skiing instructor. Yeah, got to agree with you on that one, most instructors make sure their students can stop, and certainly wouldn't have them barrelling down the slopes at 30 mph. Thank God when she wiped out, she didn't take out other skiers too. Too bad about your knee, Meri. Maybe next time you'll take instruction from someone better qualified.
Kody and Meri are not very smart.
With Meri laid up with an injured knee, Kody runs off to his next date with Janelle.
Anyway, she appeared to be happy in the wilderness with Kody.
Next, we go to Christine's house. After a brief discussion with daughter Gwendlyn about her decision to ask her brother Logan to take her to the Valentine's dance instead of her father, Christine scurries over to Meri's to help her out.
Kody has a talking head where he says sister wives will discuss their marital problems with their fellow sister wives. Maybe in a perfect polygamist world, but does anyone really think it's prudent to discuss your problems with a rival? And let's be real, these women are all rivals for Kody's attention, and they don't even make an attempt to be even friends. So why should the viewing audience be misled to believe these women are sisterly with each other when clearly, they are not? And that the advice they dish out is anything but self-serving?
Yep, Robyn's right. It's not for amateurs. And especially not for a self-deluded AUB princess who wanted to be the LAST wife and thought she WOULD BE the LAST wife, but alas, was not.
I wonder if Kody and Krew ever thought about taking a cruise on a Love Boat? He needs to become buddies with a cruise company owner. (wink, wink, nudge, nudge)
"We'll work it out..." says Kody, as he rocks her back and forth. Yeah, right...
I think Christine had a point that Kody doesn't appear to allocate his time equally. But that point is now moot, because Christine has promised to be more grateful of the crumbs he begrudgingly doles out to her and their children. And in his talking head, Kody admits that he "... actually spend more time with each individual wife relationship...Me and one wife....than I do with the whole family relationship." Yeah Kody, we definitely can see that.
For some reason, that saying of Kody's about Love Being Multiplied, Not Divided is simply not adding up in the real world. And who is suffering? The children, of course.
After listening to Robyn drone on and on (and she does drone in a nasal monotone voice) about Sol's future and that Kody will be 62 when Sol leaves for college. I think to myself I would cut my ears out my head if I had to listen to her drone on and on and on. I tell ya, she's only been a sister wife for a year and a half and already she claims to knows more about being a sister wife than the 3 women who've been together for over 20 twenty years. That takes chutzpah!
I think I'm beginning to see what's wrong with this family, and Christine was RIGHT !
Finally as this hour slowly comes to the end, we find out that Kody checks his kids 'social media' accounts. Oh really? So THAT's why the teen girls were tweeting how they had the greatest dad and family in the world!
And before we leave this episode, here's my favorite picture! It pretty much sums up this episode!
|Hey, he asked Savanah nicely!
Hi everybody. For some reason, I can't get blogger to load the next page of comments. I'm not sure if it's just my browser or if others are having this problem. I'm going to open up a new discussion page for this review. This page will be changed to read-only.
I apologize for the inconvenience!

-H- necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 46 diseños de 10 diseñadores freelance.
Crazy Hamster
Crazy Hamster (formally TheOriginalH) is a web development company that has been in the game (and around the forums!) for over 10 years. Currently rebranding and looking at building the business, we are looking for a fresh and inventive logo to go with the new branding.
Core areas of the business are well known herein; web development (largely php based, but all bases covered), SEO and SEM - basically all things webtastic. We are branching into iPhone and Android app development in the near future.
Businesses! From small to large - anyone is a potential client :). Part of the purpose of the rebranding is to attract slightly larger businesses - but in no way do we want to put off smaller clients. Most success in recent years has been building businesses from the ground up by creating a growing online presence.
With the name of the company and nature of work as inspiration, we are looking for a stunning logo that has wow factor, yet is simple and memorable. Color scheme is open, but as the logo will be used as part of the website header, as well as printed materials, should probably be reasonably simple (or at least adaptable to be so).
It should be delivered in a vector format.

Revolutionary Rum
- July 6, 2010 |
- By Jack Bettridge
The arrival just before Independence Day of three rums we hadn't tasted when we last celebrated aged rums in Cigar Aficionado (Good Life Guide, January/February) was a great excuse for an impromptu tasting to recall rum's role in the revolutionary days—and strike our own blow for independence.
When our forefathers were lifting a libation to liberty 234 years ago, sugar liquor was likely the quaff of choice. The colonialists drank their share of beer and ciders, but when it came to spirits, rum predominated. (Bourbon wouldn't become America's first original spirit drink until after the War of Independence.)
Ron Atlantico Private Cask is a Dominican Republic rum that results from a one-to-two-year aging process in Bourbon barrels before being transferred to a solera process that mixes it with rums in older casks for another 15-25 years.
Appearance: Deep yellow, fat legs.
Nose: Vanilla and bread dough.
Palate: A shock of sweetness out front turns to caramel and butter rum.
Finish: The sugar cane sweetness returns as it clings to the palate and delivers a medium-length finish with some herbal notes and greater complexity.
Will open up the flavors of a mild cigar.
Ron Cartavio is a rum oddity in that it comes from Peru, which is better known for its pisco (grape) spirit. We tasted the Solera 1929 (12-year) version (produced similarly to the above rum). Cartavio also makes a five-year Aniversario and will soon debut an 18-year Solera XO.
Appearance: Amber, gives up its sturdy legs slowly.
Nose: Elegant hard-candy nose with hints of mint and Bourbon.
Palate: Curious mixture of sweet and tart as this tightly wound rum releases its nutty flavors.
Finish: Dries up on the finish, leaving no saccharine after taste.
Smoke with a nutty, sweet medium-bodied cigar.
Ron Viejo de Caldas Grand Reserve, of Columbia, also hails from a Latin country that is not as renowned for rum making—and again with positive results. This eight-year-old rum is a vintage spirit—not a blend—and is aged at an altitude of 7,000 feet.
Appearance: Dark bronze color, delicate legs.
Nose: Dried or meaty fruit, pears, not overly sweet, with a snap of spice or licorice.
Palate: Warm, brandy notes turn to anise as you chew through it. Very subtle sweetness.
Finish: The ending notes are at first quite dry and then open to meaty fruit (banana notes) as the anise toasts off.
An excellent partner for a full-bodied smoke.

Hey everyone we haven't had a whole lot to talk about recently so my stories are slim. We have a 'lil life showing in the northern creeks to the south of the Suwannee River. The redfish are shorts to smaller keepers sizes. The creeks are also holding nice keeper sheepshead and a few trout.
The Salty Needle Quilt Shop opened its doors to a small group of kids for a sewing camp that ran a total of five days, Aug. 4-8, sewing something new and exciting each day. The children got to shop in the store for material needed for their projects, adding their very own touch to everything they completed.
Projects included: a pillow, chicken pin cushion, draw string bag, teddy bear and outfit, shorts and designed T-shirt. Mrs. Davis and Mrs. Bunny were amazing, patient and instilled a new love into all that attended.
Haven Hospice is offering a free, grief-support experience for families through the Camp Safe Haven program. The experience will help families understand their feelings of loss and give them an opportunity to heal.
Camp Safe Haven Family Camp will be held Saturday, Sept. 6 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Otter Springs Park and Campground, located at 6470 SW 80th Avenue in Trenton.
Levy County Department of Public Safety Firefighter Jeremy Pittman was selected as an honoree at the 97.3 The SKY Valor Awards, a recognition of first responders in the Heart of Florida. On Thursday, June 29, several members of the surrounding communities were recognized for their dedication to service.
Pittman came to LCDPS in October of 2012 as a 19-year-old with no background in public safety. He had passed by the Fire Station in his rural community several times thinking about volunteering in an effort to fulfill his desire of giving back to his community.
Personnel from the Levy County Sheriff's Office, family members and Sheriff's COPS (Citizens On Patrol) members honored Tom and Donna Munsell on their retirement from the volunteer group on July 14.
Tom Munsell was a part of the second volunteer academy taught at LCSO in the early 1990's. During his many years of service he donated 2,122 volunteer hours to the citizens of Levy County.
Donna Munsell donated an additional 751 volunteer hours.

The Cape San Blas lighthouse, located 12-miles south of the city of Port St. Joe on the south point of the St. Joseph Peninsula, is no stranger to the effects of erosion. First lighted in 1849, the lighthouse fell down during a gale in 1851. The light was rebuilt in 1856 but destroyed two months later.
Some say it sprang to life more than 900 years ago, gradually pushing its way up through the Levy County muck in a time when, on the European continent, people were still living in the Dark Ages and setting out on what would be the first of many attempts to reconquer the Holy Land.
Susan Rosenthal, Cedar Key Woman's Club President, presented a check to Janeice Smith and CKS Principal Darby Allen surrounded by the 5th grade students.
The donation will help offset the cost of the Cedar Key Safety Patrol's trip to Washington, D.C.
On March 26, the Cedar Key Woman's Club hosted a much attended installation dinner at the Steamer's Restaurant in Cedar Key. Out with the "old" and in with the "new," as they say and, the officers being installed will serve the ladies' club from March 31, 2014 until March 31, 2016. The previous officers were very hard to replace and the club has grown to 47 members in the past four years.

We hoped to recapture the magic of the single greatest headline/photo combination in Deadspin history, but the weather did not cooperate. Literally scores of fans were set to line the streets of downtown Indianapolis to fête their triumphant Fever, who prevailed in the best-of-5 WNBA finals this weekend, or maybe even late last week. But it rained, and the celebration had to be moved inside the Bankers Life Fieldhouse. Well, not the actual arena. The entry pavilion of the arena. A good time was had by all!
Thankfully, this led to some spectacular photos from WISH-TV:
The street where the parade would have been held.
Actual caption: "This float would have been seen if the parade for the Fever wasn't canceled."
Meanwhile, on Monday night, a 43-year-old Indianapolis woman was arrested on charges of public intoxication and resisting law enforcement.
"Baby, I'm celebrating the Fever winning the championship," the fan told police, according to the report. "I'm loaded. I ain't gonna lie."

Tom's Tips About Marina Dock Power
1. Be particularly careful about power supply in offshore marinas that use generator power. I knew if an island marina, for example, where the operator actually ramped up the generators RPMs to help balance the load. If you have a good digital volt/ohm meter and a hertz meter, and know how to SAFELY use them, you can check out questionable power before it does damage to some of your sensitive equipment.
2. You can have a panel hertz meter and/or a portable one. These will tell you the frequency of the sine waves, which for most US boats, should be very close to 60. If its very far off, it could adversely affect, perhaps even damage, some of your equipment.
3. While most US marinas supplied by a land based power grid will have stable current as to sine wave, the wiring in the marina may be inadequate for large loads and cause a voltage drop at your boat which could not only damage equipment, but be dangerous. If a large boat pulls in and plugs in on your dock, or if a lot of people are running air conditioners, check your panel voltage meter to be sure youre OK.
4. Its not uncommon to see dock receptacles that look like theyve been overheated, that arcing has occurred and that even smell burnt. This indicates that there has been a problem, or perhaps many problems, in the past. This could lead to arcing or wire burn out which could damage your equipment and your connecting plug. While the receptacle may still be good, you should carefully check your current when you plug in and continue to monitor it. You should also tell the marina operator. Most good marina operators have a supply of good receptacles and can quickly replace a questionable one. Most will appreciate your letting them know there may be a problem. If your dock power line plug smells burnt or looks blackened, its time to replace it.

Who wants to buy the Los Angeles Clippers?
Multimillionaires and billionaires have come out of the woodwork to show their interest in purchasing the Clippers should NBA owners vote to force Donald Sterling to sell the team. The first to make his interest known was Magic Johnson, who has been pining for an NBA team to add to his list of Los Angeles pro sports teams (he and his investment group already own baseball's Dodgers and the WNBA's Sparks).
Two days after the Donald Sterling tape was published, Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowski reported that Johnson and his group of billionaire investors, Guggenheim Partners, are interested in buying the team if Sterling is forced to sell. In case you're wondering, Guggenheim Partners claims it has more than $210 billion in assets under its management. Magic Johnson was said to be worth approximately $700 million when he purchased the L.A. Sparks earlier this year.
When Adam Silver was asked during his press conference on Tuesday if selling the Clippers to Johnson was option, the NBA commissioner said: "Magic Johnson knows he's always welcome as an owner in this league. He's been a part owner in the past of the Los Angeles Lakers, and he's always welcome and a close friend of the NBA family."
But the list of (extremely wealthy) interested parties in an NBA team valued at $575 million seems to be growing by the hour. Aside from Johnson, here are the others reportedly looking to drop more than half a billion or so on the Clippers:

ARLINGTON, Texas — Nelson Cruz fit right back in with the Texas Rangers after completing his 50-game drug suspension.
The All-Star slugger was reinstated from the restricted list Monday by the Rangers, who immediately put him in their lineup. Cruz will bat sixth as the designated hitter for the AL wild card tiebreaker game against Tampa Bay.
"I feel really confident right now," Cruz said before the game. "I'm going to enjoy this moment. Happy to be back. Happy to be with my teammates. It's a blessing to see the reception they gave me."
It will be the first major league game for Cruz since Aug. 4. That was the day before his suspension stemming from Major League Baseball's investigation of the Biogenesis anti-aging clinic, accused of distributing banned performance-enhancing drugs.
Cruz was among 14 players disciplined by MLB this year in the Biogenesis case. Only Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez appealed his suspension.
The return of Cruz comes eight weeks to the day he was suspended. He has acknowledged publicly that he made "an error in judgment" in the wake of a gastrointestinal infection that wasn't properly diagnosed over a few months before he reported to spring training in 2012. Cruz lost 40 pounds during that time. He has never offered more specifics.
After serving his penalty, Cruz is ready to move forward and focus on the field.
"I think I've been doing a pretty good job," he said. "Whatever is going outside of baseball, just keep it outside."
Cruz seemed at ease during batting practice, when he hit a few balls over the walls in a session he described as being "OK. It wasn't like great." He was planning to take more cuts in the indoor batting cage.
Rays manager Joe Maddon expressed no issue with Cruz being eligible.
"My job is to get my players ready. He's served his punishment, and he's eligible to play. I can't worry about that. I spend most of my energy on things like the bullpen," Maddon said. "We just played A-Rod at home."
Texas designated outfielder Joey Butler for assignment to make room on the 40-man roster.
The Rangers won their last seven scheduled games of the regular season and needed every one of those victories to force the first wild card tiebreaker in the majors since 2007.
A 163rd regular-season game provided a chance for the return of Cruz. Before flying to Texas on Saturday night, he had been playing games against mostly minor leaguers and prospects in the Arizona Instructional League.
Cruz finished 9-for-27 with five doubles, a homer and nine RBIs in eight games in Arizona.
Once Cruz told manager Ron Washington that he felt good and was loose, the slugger was back in the lineup.
"He said he was ready to go. I didn't talk to anyone in [Arizona]. I know Nelson Cruz," Washington said. "If you throw something in the wrong spot, I expect to jump up and down. … It's the threat, it's the presence, it's what he does for everybody else just being in that lineup."
General manager Jon Daniels said Cruz kept himself ready to play "as good as you can." Daniels said the at-bats got better during that time and that Cruz was swinging the bat well.
"All along, we knew we're probably a better club with him available," Daniels said.
The Rangers were 29-21 without Cruz, who hit .269 with 27 homers and 76 RBIs in 108 games before his suspension.
Washington opted to have Cruz as the designated hitter for his return rather than put him in the outfield. The Rangers stuck with hot-hitting Craig Gentry in left, Leonys Martin in center and Alex Rios in right. Rios was acquired from the Chicago White Sox four days after Cruz was suspended.
"The way those three guys out there have been running balls down, I'm not changing that right now," Washington said. "We'll use Nelson's bat, and his threat."

DENVER—A former prosecutor said Sunday the man accused of shooting and killing 12 people and wounding 58 others at a Colorado movie theater won't face an additional homicide charge after one of the victims who was critically injured suffered a miscarriage.
Defense attorney Karen Steinhauser, a former prosecutor and current adjunct professor at the University of Denver, said homicide charges in Colorado only apply to those "who had been born and alive."
"Legally, it doesn't fit the definition" in this case, she said.
The family of Ashley Moser, who was critically wounded in the July 20 shooting in Aurora, said in a statement Saturday she is recovering from surgery but the trauma caused the miscarriage. Moser suffered gunshot wounds to her neck and abdomen.
Her daughter, 6-year-old Veronica Moser-Sullivan, was the youngest person killed in the attack.
James Holmes, a 24-year-old former doctoral student studying neuroscience, is accused of opening fire on the theater and is scheduled to be formally charged Monday.
Steinhauser said prosecutors could charge him with two counts of first-degree murder for each of the 12 victims. For each victim, there could be a count for murder and a count for "manifesting extreme indifference to the value of human life," she said. On top of that, she said, Holmes could face attempted murder charges for everyone in the theater, even those who were not injured, as well as assault and explosives charges.
Police say Holmes booby-trapped his apartment with tripwires and explosive materials.
Regardless of the charges, Moser's miscarriage could rekindle a debate about whether to allow prosecutors to charge people with killing a pregnant woman's baby.
Last year, El Paso County Rep. Mark Waller put forth a bill that would have created new felony charges, such as unlawful termination of a pregnancy in the first, second and third degrees. A fourth-degree charge would be a misdemeanor. The bill also would create an offense for vehicular unlawful termination of a pregnancy.
Waller's proposal stated that it didn't "confer the status of 'person'" to an unborn child. It also included language saying people wouldn't be charged in cases where a mother consents to medical care.
The Republican lawmaker said pressure from both sides of the abortion debate forced him to abandon the proposal, though he insisted the bill was about adequately prosecuting cases.

You remember Tomas Hertl's fantastic top-shelf goal scored against the New York Rangers in October, and Nick Folingo's subsequent use of the between-the-legs goal? The move has become rather popular, apparently. And now, one talented high school player has picked it up.
Meet Jake Levy, a hockey player at Cypress Bay High School in Coral Springs, Fla. Taking a penalty shot in a 6-2 win over Flanagan High School, Levy went between his legs to score over the goalie's head.
The shot made SportsCenter's No. 1 play.

Hossa to miss Thursday's game, expected to return before openerby Brad Boron / Chicago Blackhawks
The Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday announced that forward Marian Hossa will miss at least the next four preseason games with an upper-body injury.
"He aggravated an injury there," Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville told reporters in Chicago after his team's morning skate in preparation for a preseason game Thursday against the Pittsburgh Penguins. "We're going to keep him off. I wouldn't expect him in the next four games here in the next five nights. We'll see how he progresses after that."
However, Quenneville said he expects Hossa to be ready for the regular-season opener, Oct. 1 against the Washington Capitals (8 p.m. ET, NBCSN).
"Whether we're talking seriousness of it or not, we feel he'll be back and he'll be fine," Quenneville said.
Starting Friday the Blackhawks play three games in four days, all on the road, against the Capitals, Detroit Red Wings, and Penguins. They close the preseason at home Sept. 28 against the Capitals.
Hossa did not play in the team's first preseason game, a 2-0 defeat of the Red Wings on Tuesday.
A back injury kept Hossa out of Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final, as he said a disc was putting pressure on a nerve running down his right leg. He returned for the final three games of the Final, and said that while offseason surgery was possible, he was able to avoid it.
Hossa recently told reporters that his back was feeling better, and Quenneville said he has been pleased with what he's seen from Hossa during training camp.
"He was skating pretty good," Quenneville said. "We liked the way he was moving out there, but that [the injury] is where we're at."
Quenneville also said captain Jonathan Toews will not play Thursday, but could make his preseason debut Friday. Toews has not taken part in any of the team's training-camp scrimmages or preseason games due to a lower-body injury.

Hivemind Elects Dictator! 4chan Pushes Kim Jong-Un To Top Of TIME 'Person Of The Year' Poll
from the when-a-system-comes-along,-you-must-game-it deptAt this point, TIME Magazine is probably starting to feel like the unwilling straight man in a comedy duo. Its "partner," 4chan, stormed the Person of the Year poll a few years back, battling a belated and hastily instituted CAPTCHA system in order to place its father figure, moot, at the top of the chart. Motivated by streaming porn and its pure love for trolling, 4chan went above and beyond, reordering the selections to spell out "MARBLECAKE ALSO THE GAME."
Emerging into the sunlight, bleary-eyed, triumphant, and jaded to all but the most deviant porn, 4chan soon returned to its normal mode of being highly inscrutable and incredibly frightening, resurfacing occasionally to perform such minor miracles as sending Taylor Swift off to perform a concert at a school for the deaf.
4chan has returned to the limelight once again to torment reluctant sidekick TIME by voting early and often in its own particular idiom (read: bots, prolly) for Person of the Year. And the winner is none other than North Korean dictator and poster boy for evil, nepotism and ill-fitting grey smocks, Kim Jong-un. Here' a portion of Time's statement on the poll results, which is good naturedly resigned, much in the way parents raising child 7+ are more concerned with keeping the cleaning products, bandages and fire extinguisher close at hand than preventing the feat of daredevilry that is currently being performed using Sharpies, a purloined Zippo and the second floor bannister.
Kim Jong Un is having a good year. After taking over the leadership of North Korea from his late father Kim Jong Il, at the end of 2011, he's solidified his control over the country, appeared on TIME's cover and he was even named "Sexiest Man Alive." (OK, that honor was actually bestowed as a spoof in the satirical newspaper, The Onion, but a Chinese news service mistook the Onion piece for real news and the story went global.)Sharp-eyed readers will notice that TIME takes time to point out the "unscientificness" of an easily gamed polling system. This is another sign of resignation, as the lesson learned from 4chan's first chart coup was that a determined band of anonymous users can easily defeat CAPTCHA systems, especially those as weak as the one deployed by TIME only after it realized that installing nothing at all was a bit like doxxing yourself in a 4chan thread: ill-advised to say the least.
Now, he's gotten the most votes in TIME's completely unscientific reader Person of the Year Poll with 5.6 million votes. Not bad for a man who didn't make an official public appearance until 2010.
TIME also points out that The Editors will be picking the correct Person of the Year, thank you very much. But the note does go out of its way to acknowledge the hive mind behind the dictator at the top of the list.
"The Daily Show" funny man Jon Stewart, Undocumented Immigrants, Olympic gold medalist Gabby Douglas and Burmese leaders Aung San Suu Kyi and Thein Sein, Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi and New Jersey Governor, Chris Christie, all made it into the top ten. However, some of the highest vote tallies got a boost from members of Internet forums like 4Chan who launched a campaign to manipulate the results pushing North Korea's supreme leader to the top of the list.If the names listed seem like a rather strange group to be reaching the upper echelon of TIME's poll, it's because simply pushing Kim Jr. to the top is TOO EASY. The secondary objective was another phrase -- KJU GAS CHAMBERS-- using the initial letter of the nominees' names. Yes, 4chan is all about the inappropriate humor. And anagrams.
So, as TIME prepares to put this year "to bed," its readers can rest well knowing the benevolent smile (and collectivist haircut) of Kim Jong-un will be shining down upon them.
[Jong-un could not be reached for comment, but a spokesman who wished to remain anonymous, alive and un-re-educated stated that the world's most popular dictator was so pleased with the results that he launched a celebratory missile before returning solemnly to his desk to file away the latest UN resolution condemning his actions. The spokesman noted that he did catch a small hint of a smile tugging at the corners of Kim Jong-un's perfect and infallible mouth.]

Nice people, honest, exactly what you want in a garage!
Great service got booked in within a couple of days, friendly and helpful staff, would recommend
A good price with a friendly team
Brilliant service at this garage and was really impressed. Took my car over on the night before and left the keys in the letterbox drop off. The following day they told me that a garage I had went to in the past had fixed the coil pack on my car wrong and that it wasn't bolted into place and they fixed this problem and told me the other reasons why the engine management light was on in my car. Problem solved in a day and would definitely recommend this garage to anyone.
Great job as always
Highly recommend these guys they came picked up my Audi A3 to fix clutch and flywheel job was spot on and dropped car back off next day on my doorstep. Will be using again in the future.
Great service
Good, friendly contact and follow up. David provided me with a lift home then collected me when the job was completed, and we even swapped band tips whilst we were about it. I've used them before in the past, and will no doubt do so again.
A1 service ,from collection of car to final pick up of vehicle after repairs kept informed every step of repairs . thankfully very prompt service will 100% use again . 5 stars
Excellent service
Excellent garage, really nice guys and fixed the problem quickly. Highly recommend!
My wheel bearings x2 needed replacing. I'd driven over 200 miles over Christmas to visit family in Newcastle and the noise my car was making had gotten worse during the journey to the point I didn't want to risk the long drive back with my 1 year old in the car, in case it was serious. Anyway, I contacted Mark Xmas eve and he quoted me straight away to take a look but the soonest he could do it was the 27th, understandably. It was arranged without any problem. When I took it in on the 27th he diagnosed it quickly, did the work the same day and had it back to me sounding and driving like it should. He only charged what he paid for parts plus a fair price for labour. If I ever need my car looked at when I'm in Newcastle again I will definitely go to Mark.
Great service, fitted my car in at short notice despite them being really busy. Thank you.
Great service. Speedy quotes despite me keep adding to the list. Completed a whole list of jobs that had been listed by Audi Main Dealers as needing done for half the price. Original quote for main dealer was £1200. Really happy with the work and have us honest opinion of the condition of the car. Only slight snag was card machine was not working on day of collection but we were made aware in plenty of time to arrange to pay cash. Would definitely use PSA again
Went up and beyond to fix my car, did extra aswel even after i harrassed him, defently a great find. Don't think I'll be going anywhere else in the future
Car works fine after having it in for a replacement alternator belt. Only downside I have is my side mirror has been damaged and is very loose . They both are very loose now. Apart from this brilliant lads and quick service.

robin repaired my gearbox and replaced my clutch ,i am very happy with service and price i paid,mark also picked up my car from my home as it was undrivable. 10/10
Took gearbox out myself and I will be in touch if I get stuck with bearing replacement
A Gearbox is the device used to increase and decrease torque, a twisting force which causes rotation, through the increase or reduction of speed. Ultimately, the Gearbox is used to change the speed of the vehicle.
Auto gearbox repairs are so common as the parts naturally wear down over time due to the fact that a massive amount of friction is caused between parts when a car is driven.
There are a huge number of issues that could cause a gearbox to fail and that is why we have written this guide, to help you understand what is involved with gearbox repairs.
If you are putting your car into a gear, only for it to slip out, it's obvious you have a fault. A likely cause is that the gears themselves will be worn down.
You will have to have the parts replaced as a result of the damage as it will only get worse as time progresses.
It would also be wise to check your transmission fluid levels as the parts may have worn down as a result of low lubricants.
Like many of the issues listed on this guide, low levels of transmission fluid can be the reason for the problem.
If you are hearing more noise than usual from your car while it is neutral, then check the levels of fluid and try topping it up.
If this does not resolve the problem, then the most likely cause will be worn down gearbox parts.
As soon as you see 'Service Engine Soon' in yellow on your dashboard, that is exactly what you should do as it is an indicator that something is about to go wrong or already has.
There are a variety of sensors on different parts of your car including ones on the transmission. They are in place to detect specific signs of an issue developing such as vibrations or jerks which you may not be able to see, hear or feel.
Paying attention to the light could help you save money on a gearbox repair so make sure to do so!
A dragging clutch is caused when the flywheel and clutch fail to disengage which makes changing gears almost impossible.
This gearbox problem will likely be accompanied by a grinding noise being emitted every time you try to change gears.
Luckily a gearbox repair cost will not be extortionate if you are suffering from this problem.
If the clutch has too much slack in the pedal then the linkage between the clutch disk and the pedal wont be able to pull the two parts apart.
Therefore, the linkage simply needs to be tightened or replaced which isn't as expensive as other gearbox repairs.
If your car simply refuses to go into a specific gear it is worth checking the level of you fluid as this is a common issue, though can be resolved by topping the liquid up.
There are other potential issues that would prevent you being able to go into a specific gear.
Occasionally the computer which is part of your car can be the source of the problem, alternatively the shift cables could require adjusting.
A burning smell in a car is never a good sign and as soon as you notice it is vital that you call a mobile mechanic or break down assistance in order to diagnose the problem and find a solution.
When it comes to the gearbox, a burning smell can be the result of transmission fluid overheating.
If the fluid system fails, then other parts of the system will suffer as a result.
Transmission fluid acts as lubricant and a cooling agent for the moving parts of a transmission as they are in constant perpetual motion as a car is driven, this causes friction and a build-up of heat.
Therefore a lack of transmission fluid will be harmful to these parts and a burning smell will be emitted.
If you ignore the burning smell in your car then an entire transmission replacement is likely to be required.
A car should not grind or shake at all so do not think that its normal even if it is gradual and only minor.
If ignored the issue will get worse and you will end up incurring a higher gearbox repair cost.
Grinding and shaking is a common symptom of a faulty gearbox when you move from one gear to the next.
There may even be an issue with the clutch if you feel these effects after you change gears.
If so it is likely that your clutch will need replacing.
The gear synchronizers in your car may be also be badly damaged or worn down if you feel shaking or grinding.
The transmission system can only operate while automatic transmission fluid lubricates, cleans and conditions the seals while acting as hydraulic fluid.
Even if the transmission fluid is below normal levels, your car will suffer and if it all leaks, you will face serious problems.
Automatic transmission fluid (ATF) is bright red and, surprisingly, smells sweet (that is if everything is in working order).
If you detect a leak and the fluid fits this description then you are in luck, all that you require is a hole to be filled.
However, if you come across liquid which is dark and emits a burning smell then the issue is likely to be worse.
Typically this will require the entire transmission system to be flushed or changed as it has become contaminated and is no longer suitable for use in the engine.
ATF liquid is different to motor oil as the engine doesn't consume any of it, therefore, if it is below its normal level, it's a fact that you have a leak.
If you would like to check the fluid level, try to locate the transmission case (close to the fill plug) and perform a visual assessment.
Once more, if you have a leak, it is essential that you address the issue and find a clutch or gearbox specialist using WhoCanFixMyCar as we will be able to provide you with a range of quotes from local mechanics.
If you try to move into a certain gear and you feel resistance, or the gearstick keeps popping out, then there is definitely an issue.
There should not be any pushback when you go into gear and so if you even feel the slightest change you should take your car to a gearbox specialist or automatic gearbox specialist as soon as possible.
Typically, this is a problem involving the clutch as well so be prepared to replace it if you run into this type of issue.
It can be difficult to diagnose the extent of a gearbox problem which involves the clutch, so the best advice is to take your car into a clutch and gearbox specialist as mentioned above.
Hearing a strange noise from your car is probably the best way to know that something isn't right.
There are a plethora of issues which could be causing a noise to come from your car engine and the gearbox is one system which could be causing a new sound.
The specific noise will vary greatly on the model of the car, part and specific issue so it is almost impossible to specifically identify an issue from a sound alone.
The biggest indicator that your gearbox has an issue will be if you hear a clunking noise when you shift gears which sound mechanical, abrupt and loud.
The same can be said of automatic gearboxes, if you notice a clunking noise as you accelerate, slow down or drive on an incline, it would be indicative of an issue with the transmission.
Even if the noise sounds severe, it may be a minor issue, however it will turn into a major one if you do not diagnose the transmission problem.
The gearbox repair cost will spiral if you neglect to address the problem.
Whether you need to replace an automatic gearbox or replace a manual gearbox, the price will vary from one garage to the next and the cost will also vary on the model of the car.
A reconditioned gearbox is a part which has been broken but has been fixed by a transmission expert. If you suffer from a gearbox problem, there is the worry about spending money on new parts, however, it is often possible to salvage engine parts and a reconditioned gearbox is ideal from those wanting to avoid spending money on expensive new parts.
Reconditioned gearbox prices vary depending on the car model however it is always worth shopping around for the best price.
Finding a mechanic you can trust to do a good job and charge a fair price, is not always easy, which is why we've simplified the process.

This is a nonhazardous cold cleaning solvent that allows you to you avoid hazardous waste problems. Because it has a high 141 degree flashpoint, it is not as flammable as many other cheaper detergents. KleenTec says it actually doesn't contain any ingredients that are characterized as hazardous by the EPA's RCRA act. It is created with a blend of sulphur free hydrocarbon agents, detergents and wetting agents. It cleans so much more effectively than most solvents, and yet does so while being safer for the user to touch and breath near. It doesn't need rinsing and it doesn't leave any annoying residue. Once the parts have been cleaned, you are ready to roll. Also complies to the State of California's Rule 66, so you know it's safe. Plus, it won't break down or deteriorate, so it can be used indefinitely. So we recommend adding a filtration system to your parts washer, which will extend your detergent's life dramatically.
