Tentatively, I propose the following triage for various broad areas:
1) activities that are "Expected to Make a Full Recovery," ones that I think will spread and intensify out of necessity,
2) activities labeled "Code Blue"--the medical term for emergency treatment of heart attack patients--activities which I think may only survive with our active intervention or which may only be available at the level we want them to be through special efforts, and
3) activities labeled "Do Not Resuscitate" which are unlikely to survive post-peak no matter how much effort we put into them.
Only "Code Blue" items are meant to indicate my preferences for a post-peak oil world.
The other categories are predictions (a dangerous practice) about what I think will and won't thrive in a low-energy society. I will certainly miss some activities such as cheap air travel. Others such as motorized sports, I won't. But, my preferences don't matter since the availability and price of liquid fuels will, in my view, determine the fate of both activities.
The table below is not meant to be a complete list by any means. No doubt readers will disagree--perhaps vehemently in some cases--with my predictions and preferences. My aim is neither to irritate nor to prescribe, but rather to help begin a process that I believe will become absolutely necessary. I say absolutely necessary because our failure to recognize those activities which won't survive under any circumstances may cause us to waste valuable (and diminishing) energy resources on hopeless cases. That lost energy will be energy that we cannot spend on things that we will desperately need such as wind and solar power.
No one likes to choose, but choose we must if we are going to have the future that we want (given our constraints) rather than the one that is simply forced upon us.

Rolinson documents fight against waterborne diseases in Africa
The Point
Winter 2014
Potters Waters Action Group (PWAG) is an association of individuals and organizations united in the war against waterborne disease. Since 1999, members of the group have been promoting and improving the silver enhanced, ceramic water filter that can be produced almost anywhere in the world using locally obtained materials.
Based in the POT SHOP at the Braddock Carnegie Library since 2004, the PWAG and its affiliates have assisted in the establishment of water filter production and distribution facilities in Honduras, Haiti, Iraq, Sudan and the Dominican Republic.
My role in PWAG is to document the history and development of the water filter; beginning with its champion, sociologist/potter Ron Rivera, and continuing through our current project. Rivera died five years ago from malaria contracted while attempting to set up a production facility in Nigeria. Last May my mentor, retired Slippery Rock University Professor Richard Wukich, visited the same site to carry out Rivera's vision of pure water.
The pottery is located in a grove of palm trees outside the village of Atamora. The master potter, Ibukunoluwa Ayoola, known as IBK, is an anomaly in the Nigerian pottery tradition as the work has traditionally been conducted by women. He attended college training as an accountant.
After a few years, unable to accept the tedium of a desk job, he and his wife moved to his grandmother's village and took up farming and pottery. IBK learned his skills from various sources and eventually attracted young people who wanted to work in the clay arts.
Currently, he has a number of apprentices living in the village and learning to become potters. The filter production facility will add another dimension to the pottery and enable them to expand and begin vocational training for the youth of the village and surrounding area. The factory will produce about 1500 filters a month and provide jobs for about ten employees. Plans are to establish a training center at Atamora that will enable others to learn the process and set up additional factories as needed.
The filter is an inverted bell shape made from clay and sawdust. When fired the sawdust burns away leaving voids that allow water to pass through the wall of the vessel. The filter element is impregnated with colloidal silver, an antimicrobial agent. The press used to form the filters is built from steel and simple hardware. The molds are custom manufactured by the E.H. Schwab Co.
The finished filter provides a family of five with potable water at the rate of 2-3 liters per hour. The filter rests in a five gallon plastic bucket with a spigot to draw off clean water. Handcrafted glazed receptacles can be obtained for upscale applications.

I hope you're all well and starting the year off the way you'd like it to continue. I have a few plans for posts here, such as raving in awe about the lovely Kendra Bean's beautiful book, Vivien Leigh: An Intimate Portrait, a few other film history books I've picked up over the last year, a kind of retrospective for Joan Fontaine and Peter O'Toole, and photos my new puppy, Plum.
But to make this pointless 'hello' post worthwhile, here's part of a sketch by the great Stanley Baxter, who's a fairly new discovery for me. After seeing this in a documentary about him over Christmas I thought, wow, I'd post that if I had a blog. Then I remembered that I do have a blog, so here it is: 'Wind from the West', a parody of 'Gone with the Wind'.

The strike disrupted public transport, halted ferry and train services, shut down courts and state-run schools, and left state hospitals and the ambulance service functioning with emergency staff.
Dozens of flights were canceled or rescheduled as air traffic controllers walked off the job for three hours in support of the labor action.
In Athens, two separate protest marches to Parliament were poorly attended due to driving rain, with a total of 12,000 people, mostly Communist party supporters, shouting anti-austerity slogans.
Up to 10,000 protesters held two separate demonstrations in the northern city of Thessaloniki, Greece's second-largest.
Greece has been surviving on international rescue loans from the International Monetary Fund and other European countries that use the euro since 2010, after a combination of dismal financial stewardship, loss of investor confidence and the global recession brought it to the brink of bankruptcy. Successive governments have passed repeated rounds of deep spending cuts and tax hikes to secure 240 billion euros ($324 billion dollars) in bailout loans.
The strike is taking place as the government holds talks with debt inspectors from the IMF, European Central Bank and European Commission, known collectively as the troika, over what measures are needed to plug a budget gap next year.
Greece and the troika differ over the size of the gap. Athens maintains the shortfall will be around 500 million euros and can be plugged relatively easily, but Finance Minister Yannis Stournaras has conceded creditors expect the gap to be five times as big.
At stake is Greece's next bailout installment of 1 billion euros ($1.35 billion).
Laid-off Finance Ministry cleaner Evangelia Alexaki, who lost her 500-euro a month job as part of the spending cuts, said she is now destitute.
"They throw us to the streets, just like that," she said Wednesday. "Women who are 57 and 58 years old, and (too young) to get pensions or anything else. For us, this money was little but at least we could fulfill some of the family's needs. Now they're sending us to poverty."

South Korea's President Lee Myung Bak appears to have won the support he needs to pursue economic reforms and a tougher line toward North Korea, after his Grand National Party won a majority in a National Assembly previously controlled by outspoken foes of his conservative policies.
"He's getting the vote of confidence he needs," says Park Nei Hei, an economics professor and consultant with the Boston Consulting Group. "He's getting Korean sentiment behind him."
The elections strengthened Mr. Lee's position as he prepares to fly to Washington next week for his first meeting with President Bush since winning the presidency in December, when he defeated by a landslide a leftist candidate backed by a government with very different views on economic problems and North Korea.
Mr. Park predicts that "MB," as Lee is often referred to in headlines and conversations, "will not have any problem doing what he has to do emphasizing the growth of the economy and loosening up regulations."
Lee also is expected to try to reach an understanding with Mr. Bush on how to deal with North Korea after a series of rhetorical attacks in which the North has denounced him as a "traitor" and threatened to reduce South Korea "to ashes."
Conservatives from Mr. Lee's party captured more than half the 299 assembly seats, while candidates from two smaller parties added another 30 seats to the conservative total.
One of the president's political allies running for office, Chung Mong Joon, one of Korea's wealthiest men, defeated Chung Dong Young, whom Lee had trounced in the presidential election in December. Chung Mong Joon inherited his controlling stake in Hyundai Heavy Industries, the world's largest shipbuilder, from his father Chung Ju Yung, founder of the Hyundai empire.
Conservatives dominated every region except the southwest, the springboard of the rise to power of former president Kim Dae Jung, who initiated Korea's Sunshine policy of reconciliation with North Korea during his term from 1998 to 2002.
Candidates had to battle apathy among voters, who had long expected conservatives to take over the assembly. Only about 44 percent of eligible voters cast their ballots one day after crucial talks in Singapore between US nuclear envoy Christopher Hill and his North Korean counterpart, Kim Kye Gwan.
Mr. Hill, in Beijing, said he and Mr. Kim had made "definite progress" but still had "a lot of work to do" and had achieved no "major breakthrough." China's envoy, Wu Dawei, who has hosted six-party talks on North Korea's nuclear program, warned not to expect any movement for several months.
Those comments contradicted a North Korean spokesman quoted by Pyongyang's Korean Central News Agency as saying Hill and Kim had formed a "declaration" in which North Korea would list its nuclear program in exchange for "political compensation." That term is was widely assumed to refer to removal from the US list of nations sponsoring terrorism and lifting of economic sanctions, as long demanded by North Korea.
Analysts believe Mr. Lee must now decide whether to support what is widely viewed here as a compromise on the original agreement, reached last year, in which North Korea was to itemize its nuclear program by the end of December.
Hill and Kim are believed to have discussed a formula under which North Korea acknowledges the truth of a secret memorandum that cites the existence of a program for developing warheads with enriched uranium. North Korea would also acknowledge a passage in the memorandum stating it had provided technology and aid for Syria's nuclear program – including a complex bombed by Israeli war planes last year.
"Apparently they've decided on an unofficial MOU [memorandum of understanding] between Washington and Pyongyang," says Lee Jong Min, professor of international relations at Yonsei University. "This is a tacit acknowledgement. They won't talk about it."
The deal, says Mr. Lee, calls for North Korea to "agree with what the Americans said" about the uranium program as well as the Syrian facility but not to say so publicly.
Lee predicts this sort of deal will meet with criticism among conservatives here as well as in the American Congress.
"There are so many ifs and buts," he says. "I don't think President Lee will go to Washington and tell President Bush this is horrible, but he has to get an assurance from the American side that the Americans will not do a deal before the end of the year" lest Bush rush into a decision for the sake of his legacy.
Lee promises huge economic rewards for North Korea, but has angered the North Korea by conditioning the vow on the North's completely dismantling its nuclear program and returning hundreds of fishermen and Korean War prisoners. He also promises to address human rights abuses in North Korea – an issue that North Korea denies and refuses to discuss.
Lee's assembly majority means he should have no problem getting the assembly to ratify a highly controversial free trade agreement with the US. He will need conservative support, moreover, to remove one of the biggest obstacles to acceptance of the agreement by the US Congress – barriers to the import of US beef. US officials have repeatedly warned South Korea the agreement has no chance in Congress if South Korea fails to remove the barriers.

Our typical customer is: is between 18 and 40, health conscience, likes it spicy, college educated, young families, and possible hipsters.
We are looking for a standard sized label for a 10 to 20 oz round bottle, about like a ketchup bottle.
The label should be a base that we can tweak to fit several selections of sauce and ingredients list...
I've attached two versions of our Trademarked logo. Our colors are Tibetian Red and Saffron Yellow. Examples of those colors can be found in the red or yellow robes Buddhist monks wear.

Fifth-ranked UW-Whitewater's twenty-seven game Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference win streak came to an end Saturday with #10 UW-Oshkosh winning 28-13 before a WIAC record crowd of 12,318.
UW-Oshkosh went 75 yards in 13 plays on its first possession to jump out front 7-0 with 10:38 on the clock. The Titans converted on three third downs on the drive, the last time a five yard pass from Nate Wara to Caleb Voss.
Whitewater's first two possessions went three and out.
Oshkosh began a drive at their 19 with 4:59 left in the quarter. Facing a third and ten at their 40, Wara and Voss combined again, this time on a 60 yard scoring strike for a 14-0 lead with 2:00 remaining in the first.
Oshkosh totaled 177 yards in the first quarter, and held Whitewater to 25.
Midway through the second quarter Titan defensive back Tim Filter intercepted a Lee Brekke (Sun Prairie/Sun Prairie) pass, Filter's second pick of the day, returning it 19 yards to give UW-O the ball at the Whitewater 30. Facing a third and 14, Wara went up top again, connecting with Cory Wipperfurth for the 21 yard score at 5:25 for a 21-0 lead.
The Oshkosh defense stymied Whitewater in the first half, holding the Warhawks to one first down and 53 yards of offense. On the other side of the ball, UW-O totaled 245 yards (110 rushing, 135 passing). Wara went 11-15, with the three TD's, in the half.
A turnaround began with Whitewater's second possession of the second half. Matt Behrendt (Westchester, IL/Nazareth) went 5-5 on the drive, and scrambled for 14 yards, as UW-W went 62 yards for a score. Behrendt hit Joe Worth (Hartford/Union) with a 22 yard TD pass with 6:33 in the third to make it 21-7.
Behrendt went 3-3 on the Warhawks' next drive, including a TD pass to Dantrell Wright (Plainfield, Il/South) that covered 29 yards. UW-W missed the PAT kick, and the score was 21-13 with 3:56 left in the quarter.
Whitewater began the fourth quarter with a drive that advanced to the Oshkosh 28, and the drive ended with a missed 45 yard field goal.
An Oshkosh punt backed Whitewater up to their own six, and when the Warhawks couldn't move the ball, the Warhawk punt was fair caught at the Whitewater 39. Wara immediately hooked up with running back Cole Myhra on a 31 yard screen around the left side, and Myhra carried the ball two more times for the touchdown to put the game away, 28-13 with 6:48 on the clock.
Whitewater rushed for 55 yards in the loss, the Warhawks lowest total since October 28, 2006 when Mary Hardin-Baylor held UW-W to 30 yards on the ground.
After the big deficit at halftime, the Whitewater offense totaled 14 first downs, the same as Oshkosh. UW-W gained 357 yards, Oshkosh 360. Whitewater had the ball for 70 plays for 29:12, while Oshkosh ran 72 plays for 30:48.
Wara completed 16-24 for 217 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions. Linebacker Taylor Goodman and defensive back Frank Martin were both credited with nine tackles to lead UW-O, with Goodman adding a sack. Behrendt went 18-31 for 271 with two scoring passes and no interceptions. UW-W wide-out Steve Morris (Racine/Horlick) led both teams with nine catches for 144 yards. Warhawk linebacker Josh Williams (Milwaukee/Mukwonago) totaled 12 tackles and one tackle for a loss.
UW-W is 5-2 overall and 3-1 in the WIAC. The Warhawks will travel to Stevens Point next Saturday. The two schools met earlier this season, September 22, with Whitewater winning 34-7. That was a non-conference game, while the October 27 contest will count in league standings. Oshkosh improves to 7-0 and 4-0 in league play. The Titans will travel to UW-La Crosse for their next game.
Titans End Warhawks 27 Game Streak
|No. 5 UW-Oshkosh (7-0)
|UW-Whitewater (5-2)
Fifth-ranked UW-Whitewater's twenty-seven game Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference win streak came to an end Saturday with #10 UW-Oshkosh winning 28-13 before a WIAC record crowd of 12,318.

It is Ford's 3rd earliest nameplate presently in production. Original sales projections forecasted less than 100,000 systems for the first year. This mark was surpassed in 3 months from rollout. Another 318,000 would be offered during the design year (a record), and in its very first eighteen months, more than one million Mustangs were built.

All these were VIN-identified as 1965 models, however a number of modifications were made at the standard opening of the new model year (beginning August 1964), including the addition of back-up lights on some designs, the introduction of generators to replace generators, and an upgrade of the V8 engine from 260 cu into 289 cu in. In the case of a minimum of some six-cylinder Mustangs fitted with the 101 hp 170 cu in Falcon engine, the rush into production included some uncommon quirks, such as a horn ring bearing the 'Ford Falcon' logo design below a trim ring emblazoned with 'Ford Mustang.' These attributes made sufficient difference to warrant designation of the 121,538 earlier ones as "1964 1/2" model-year Mustangs, a difference that has actually withstood with perfectionists.

The 1973 OPEC oil embargo brought with it more rigid pollution laws and the desire for fuel-efficiency. This was also the first time in automotive history that the Huge 3 were having to take on imports. The new Mustang II was smaller than the very first version however, due to the extra equipment needed to fulfill brand-new US emission and safety policies, was much heavier than the first model. Performance was decreased and in the first year just 385,993 cars were offered.
2nd generation Mustangs for sale in Oxford GA were readily available between 1974 and 1978 and readily available in a coupe and hatchback version. 1979 the Mustang was redesigned a 3rd time. This time it was based upon the larger Fox platform and the interior was truly large enough for four people. The trunk was bigger and so was the engine bay. The body designs offered included a coupe, hatchback and in 1983 a convertible. In 1979 the Third generation Mustang functioned as an Indianapolis 500 speed automobile and Ford constructed 10,478 commemorative reproductions. The 3rd generation Mustangs were produced from 1979 to 1982.

As much as I enjoyed sister pastor's wife Zsuzsana's groundbreaking post exposing the Sandy Hook shootings as a false flag operation to seize our guns, it was a link in her comments that provided the most important clues about the hoax.
At his website, WellAware1, American patriot Ed Chiarni exposes the children of baseball great, Hank Greenberg, as the brains behind the operation. According to Mr. Ed, no one died at Sandy Hook Elementary and actors hired by the Greenbergs played all the roles of the victims, family, and law enforcement we saw on our television sets.
Mr Ed's investigation is exhaustive and much too comprehensive to post here, but here's a short list of a few of the actors he indicts:
Skateboarder Tony Hawk, his wife, Lhotse, and their daughter played the roles of victim characters Emili Parker and her family.
The Office's Toby Flenderson (Paul Lieberstein) plays Newtown Police Chief character Michael Kehoe and co-star Angela Kinsey (Angela Martin) "looks exactly like Sandy Hook teacher 'Kaitlin Roig.'"
Former Klinton spokes Dee Dee Myers plays the part of Cathy Gaarden who was interviewed about one of the victims on television. Mr. Ed: "..they are attempting to trical the investigators and have them make a mistake by identifying the principal as Hillary [Clinton] when it's Dee Dee Myers."
This isn't Mr. Ed's first investigation. He's also identified actors playing roles in other tragedies:
The Oregon mall shooting featured former Obama campaign manager David Plouffe as Clackamas County Sheriff's Lt. James Rhodes.
Kevin Costner played pedophile coach character Jerry Sandusky; Ted Nugent played Sandusky's lawyer; and Spinal Tap actor Michael McKean (who is really the late actor, John Ritter) played the part of Rupert Murdoch.
And, of course, Adolph Eichmann was actually Bing Crosby.

Former customers of MF Global have added accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) as a defendant in a lawsuit stemming from the collapse of the brokerage.
The group, which is working with MF Global Inc. Trustee James Giddens, already had filed allegations including violations of the Commodity Exchange Act, breach of fiduciary duty, and negligence, among other causes of action against former CEO Jon Corzine and other former MF Global executives as well as CME Group, MF Global's designated self-regulatory organization.
In the amended complaint, filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan on Monday, the group accuses PwC of failing to adequately audit MF Global's internal controls over customer funds. The lawsuit, which is seeking class action status, claims that PwC failed to examine MF Global's controls over customer funds. As such, this amounted to professional malpractice and a breach of the auditor's duties to the company and the customers, the lawsuit said.
According to a PwC spokeswoman, it conducted its last audit of MF Global in March 2011. The audit confirmed that MF Global had maintained its customer accounts in accordance with federal regulations, at the time, she said.
PwC had served as independent auditor of MF Global in 2010 and 2011, according to the complaint. "If PwC had properly executed its duties and evaluated and reported on [MF Global]'s control problems in March 2011, there would have been ample time for management to institute proper controls over customer funds," the complaint says.
The case is DeAngelis et al v. Corzine et al, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, No. 11-07866, and is seeking in excess of $1 billion in missing funds following MF Global's collapse.

Soon, the windows of your house and the screen of your cell phone may be collecting solar power.
An article published in the journal Advanced Materials says researchers at the University of California have built working examples of a new kind of solar cell: It allows roughly 60 per cent of natural light through, but uses the rest to generate electricity.
This is not the first attempt to turn glass features such as windows into solar panels.
But the approach used by Yany Yang Laboratory has the potential for mass-manufacturing techniques as it can be "printed" on polymer rolls before being applied to glass.
Other techniques require the light to be trapped inside the glass window itself, directing it to photovoltaic cells in the pane.
The new cell utilises a thin network of silver nanowires sprayed onto a layer of titanium oxide, with its gaps filled by nanoparticles of indium tin oxide. This sits on top of a polymer layer.

text: It's no secret that Chicago eaters love salted meat products (see Swerski, Bill), so it may not come as any surprise that choucroute garni, an Alsatian dish of seasoned sauerkraut typically topped with sausage, ham, and potatoes, is taking hold of the town. Time Out Chicago reports seeing choucroute dishes on the menus at Brasserie Jo (where it's been a staple for years), and, more recently, Blackbird and Kith and Kin. It's not a dish for the faint of heart (or the clogged of arteries), but if you're going to dig in, winter is the time. I've only had this in France, where a friend and I shared what turned out to be a mountainous plate we now call the "meat-lover's special." It was porky. It was salty. It was delicious — and we didn't come close to finishing it.

PHNOM PENH, Cambodia (AP) – Cambodian opposition supporters gathered at the royal palace Saturday and delivered a petition to the king calling on him to postpone the opening of parliament until the country's political deadlock is resolved.
Hundreds of riot police guarded the palace, outnumbering supporters of the opposition Cambodia National Rescue Party. The peaceful gathering ended after four representatives were allowed past a barricade to hand palace aides the petition. About 260,000 supporters signed the petition, said Mu Sochua, an opposition leader.
The opposition says it will boycott parliament's opening session Monday unless the government agrees to an independent probe of the July 28 election results. The CNRP says it was cheated out of a victory because of electoral fraud.
The government has rejected the demand of an independent probe, and Prime Minister Hun Sen says he will continue his 28 years in power.
Official results gave Hun Sen's party 68 seats, compared to 55 for the opposition.
"We hope the king will read the documents from the people and agree to delay or postpone the meeting at the National Assembly," said Norn Ly, 25, one of the petitioners.
King Norodom Sihamoni did not immediately reply to the petition, but he has already asked the opposition to take its seats at the National Assembly's scheduled opening, pointing to a constitutional stipulation that the assembly must be convened within 60 days of the election.
The petition drive came a day after opposition leader Sam Rainsy also urged the king to postpone parliament.
In a separate incident Friday night, more than 100 military police pressured Prince Sisowath Thomico, a member of both the royal family and the opposition party, to leave a park in Phnom Penh, the capital, where he had launched a hunger strike earlier that day, according to the prince and human rights activists.
The prince said that he agreed to abandon his hunger strike because he didn't want trouble and that he would find other ways to show support for the opposition.

Larry Page Says When Machines Take Our Jobs, It'll Feel Like Vacation
Billionaire technorats can't just tweetstorm the impending techno-utopia and expect the plebes to like it. Radical innovation—like, say, driverless cars or computerized faces—takes some getting used to. In order to sell human obsolescence, Google CEO Larry Page opts for a Mary Poppins approach.
During a recent fireside chat at the KV CEO Summit, venture capitalist Vinod Khosla asked Page about the imminent "machine-learning revolution" that might render, oh, about 50 percent of existing jobs obsolete:
VK In this group, there are a bunch of people who are addressing the beginnings of the machine-learning revolution. There are people replacing farm workers, so you can weed plants and provide plant-by-plant care. People who are doing machines to make hamburgers automatically, all the way up the chain to people who are replacing law clerks or even doctors, psychiatrists, ENT specialists, you name it. So the whole span, from very simple work to very large work, is being replaced in a way that is a little bit scary. I want to come back before we finish to the social aspects of some of the technology changes. But I do wonder if the vast majority of jobs that we know today, more than 50-percent might be replaced by machines that can do that human judgment piece better.
Page insists this is no big deal, brosef, reminding Khosla that the same transition occurred after technological advances in agriculture, where previously "90 percent of people used to be farmers."
LP I totally believe we should be living in a time of abundance, like Peter Diamandis' book. If you really think about the things that you need to make yourself happy - housing, security, opportunities for your kids - anthropologists have been identifying these things. It's not that hard for us to provide those things. The amount of resources we need to do that, the amount of work that actually needs to go into that is pretty small. I'm guessing less than 1-percent at the moment. So the idea that everyone needs to work frantically to meet people's needs is just not true.
But how do those resources get distributed to the rest of the 99 percent? If labor from both manual and knowledge workers alike is useless and we can no longer exchange labor for wages and wages for resources, who will make sure everyone's needs are met? To use Page's agriculture example, just because food is easier to produce doesn't mean its easier for the aforementioned "everyone" to access. Should we expect the same widening gap between abundance and scarcity for "housing, security, opportunity for your kids"?
Page is less focused on those logistical details than he is with feelings. To him, employment is not a means to survival, but a means to happiness. Ergo, just have benevolent employers divvy up non-essential jobs between a couple of useless workers and then the partially employed masses will be content! You get a (part-time) job, you get a (part-time) job, etc. Emphasis mine:
LP I think there's also a social problem that a lot of people aren't happy if they don't have anything to do. So we need to give people things to do. We need to feel like you're needed, wanted and have something productive to do. But I think the mix with that and the industries we actually need and so on are— there's not a good correspondence. That's why we're busy destroying the environment and other things, maybe we don't need to be doing. So I'm pretty worried. Until we figure that out, we're not going to have a good outcome. One thing, I was talking to Richard Branson about this. They don't have enough jobs in the UK. He's been trying to get people to hire two part-time people instead of one full-time. So at least, the young people can have a half-time job rather than no job. And it's a slightly greater cost for employers. I was thinking, the extension of that is you have global unemployment or widespread unemployment. You just reduce work time.
Asking employers to shoulder a slightly greater cost so that more workers can have (not enough) money sounds as logical as Marc Andreessen's trickle down technomics. But the people Page surrounds himself with think it sounds swell:
Everyone I've asked— I've asked a lot of people about this. Maybe not you guys. But most people, if I ask them, 'Would you like an extra week of vacation?' They raise their hands, 100-percent of the people. 'Two weeks vacation, or a four-day work week?' Everyone will raise their hand. Most people like working, but they'd also like to have more time with their family or to pursue their own interests. So that would be one way to deal with the problem, is if you had a coordinated way to just reduce the workweek. And then, if you add slightly less employment, you can adjust and people will still have jobs.

Spicebird: A Modern Thunderbird Remix
Spicebird Installation and Setup
Take Thunderbird, mix liberally with calendaring, instant messaging, and release it on Linux and Windows. What do you get? Spicebird, a collaboration client that remixes Thunderbird to bring the creaking mail client up to date for today's users.
Spicebird has been in the works for some time, but the 0.8 release is finally ready for a wider audience. To see if it's ready for everyday use, I downloaded Spicebird 0.8 a week ago and started testing.
Spicebird Setup and Use
Spicebird requires very little setup on Linux. Just grab the tarball, uncompress it, and run spicebird. That's really all there is to it. Since Spicebird is based on Thunderbird 3.x, you'll see no difference in setting up mail here. Like Thunderbird, Spicebird is great at setting up "standard" email accounts like Gmail — plug in your email address and password and it'll likely figure out your account details (POP3 vs. IMAP, SSL or not, etc.) on its own.
But it doesn't handle non-standard accounts terribly well — but providing the details manually still works fine. After a little bit-twiddling I had the zonker.net mail ready to go.
If you've used Thunderbird mail, you know what to expect. If not, Spicebird (and Thunderbird) are solid mailers that are easy to use. I called Thunderbird "creaky" and I stick by that. These days I do most of my mail in Gmail's Webmail interface. Aside from some annoyances at the limitations of Webmail (specifically around windowing and multiple messages) I prefer the Gmail interface to any desktop mail client I've used. If you prefer a desktop client to Webmail, though, the bird is your friend for email.
Spicebird differs from Thunderbird in that it has calendaring integrated, and offers instant messaging/IRC and a home tab with widgets.
The home tab offers a few nifty widgets like a two timezone Date & Time widget and a quick view for the inbox that can be configured to display new messages or messages older than X days, etc. Nothing super-compelling, but good demos of what can be done with the Home tab.
An interesting feature of the Home tab is that you can also embed Google widgets that you'd usually use with the iGoogle home page. So, for instance, I can embed the Google Reader gadget to see what the top new items are on my feeds.
Integrating calendaring is something that Thunderbird should have done long, long ago. The Lightning and Sunbird projects, which is what Spicebird is basing its calendaring on, should be integrated into the Thunderbird mailer by default rather than leaving it to users to grab the extension. What's truly frustrating is that the Lightning extension development sometimes moves at a different pace than the Thunderbird development, meaning that you can't run the most recent releases of Thunderbird with the most recent Lightning extension.
Like the Lightning extension, Spicebird lets you use remote calendars with CalDAV, and import/export calendaring. It's a pretty good calendar, but falls down a bit when it comes to synchronizing appointments with corporate groupware. Spicebird is a decent solution for anybody who's not working in a corporate environment, but if calendaring with something like Exchange or Groupwise is a factor, you'll be working around Spicebird's limitations a bit.
As a Linux guy, I have a love-hate relationship with programs that try to unify two or more functions. In the *nix world, the most elegant applications and utilities are those that do one thing and do them well. Thus, it must be that GNU Emacs is the least Unixy program in existence. But I digress. It's convenient to have an application or suite that combines tasks that are similar in nature. Communications, for example. But combo-clients usually fall down when you stack up features.
Spicebird integrates instant messaging and IRC with email, but right now fails mightily when it comes down to making it intuitive or matching up with other instant messaging applications for Linux like Pidgin.
How do you set up a new chat account? This should be immediately obvious in any application that actually professes to be for instant messaging, but it is not.

It was springtime. Acting on impulse, I had just picked up a fresh bamboo shoot from a market in Chinatown. Having never even seen a fresh bamboo shoot before, I wasn't really sure what to do with it. And so I turned to you all, soliciting ideas from our fanbase on Facebook. Thankfully, one of our FB fans (shoutout to you, Fred B.) directed us this link -- the Food Standards website, an independent agency that promotes food standards in Australia and New Zealand. And that's where this tale of misfortune and woe truly begins.
The Tale of Woe and Misfortune
You see, fresh bamboo shoot contains toxins. Specifically "cyanogenic glycosides." For your ease, I have excerpted the relevant parts of the helpful Food Standards site (though you should read the bit about cassava being poisonous, too)
Are raw or fresh bamboo shoots safe to eat?
Bamboo shoots are safe to eat providing that they are prepared properly. Fresh bamboo shoots that have not undergone any processing can be a potential public health and safety risk due to the presence of cyanogenic glycosides. This can lead to hydrogen cyanide exposure and its related toxicity.
How do I make bamboo shoots safe to eat?
Fresh bamboo shoots should be sliced in half lengthwise, the outer leaves peeled away and any fibrous tissue at the base trimmed. It should then be thinly sliced into strips and boiled in lightly salted water for eight to ten minutes. The most common preparation involves boiling the shoots in stocks, soups or salted water for use in assorted dishes.
Now, I was well freaked out after reading this. Despite running a cooking site, I'm not the most confident person in the kitchen. Did I really want to experiment with something potentially toxic? But several hours of internet research and the proliferation of fresh bamboo recipes out there got me a bit more comfortable. I decided to base my preparation on the Japanese method, where the root is boiled whole in water and rice bran, which helps to remove the bitterness.
So, my method: following this recipe, I trimmed the bamboo root, chopping off the tip and removing some of the outer leaves of the bamboo. Since I didn't have rice bran, I used the water from washing rice, which was a tip I got from "Japanese Cooking: A Simple Art." In a large pot, I added a lot of water and began the boil. About an hour and a half to two hours later, I removed the shoot and let it sit in fresh cold water for a while. After it had cooled, I began to peel the leaves, with each layer removed the shoot resembling a tubular artichoke. After the leaves were no more, I did a bit more trimming of the tough-looking parts and was getting pumped that my amazing, earthy bamboo rice recipe was one critical step closer to being a reality.
But first -- I took a little bite of the freshly cooked bamboo. In some recipes, I had seen that if you still taste bitterness after boiling, you should boil it some more. And bitter it was. Very bitter. Alarmed (and paranoid), I put the now peeled bamboo back in fresh boiling water for another 10 minutes. Another taste and the bitterness was still there.
Meanwhile, I started to feel … a little ill. Was it me or was it getting a bit difficult to breathe? And suddenly a headache, too. But some AsianSupperers may be suspect a case of hypochondria. That I will not deny.
But I wasn't going to let fears of looking like a complete hypochondriac stop me! A doctor was in order. So I beat it to a nearby walk-in clinic. I won't go into details about the visit, but let's just say the doctor did NOT think I was experiencing any sort of cyanide poisoning and I am still alive.
The Aftermath
I was too scared to eat the bamboo, so I threw it out. Actually my husband threw it out and banned any "poisonous" food items from our kitchen. Since the incident, I have not attempted to prepare another fresh bamboo shoot. If there ever is a next time, I will probably follow the Food Standards instructions by removing all the leaves and thinly slicing, then boiling.
Ahem. And that concludes this chapter of the Fail Files.
Have you ever cooked fresh bamboo shoot (successfully or unsuccessfully)? Share your story below.

The second annual Sylvania Socket Survey reveals a paradox in Americans' attitudes toward lighting — although 74% have switched to an energy-saving light bulb in the past year, the majority is not aware of the impending federal phase-out of incandescent lamps, starting in 2012 with the 100W bulb. While increasingly price sensitive, the majority of respondents have warmed up to the idea of eco-lighting and say they are likely to purchase a CFL, halogen, or LED bulb in the future.
Additional findings of the 2009 Sylvania Socket Survey include:
- Consumers are concerned about energy efficiency.
- Approximately three-quarters (74%) say they have switched a light bulb for more energy efficiency in 2009, compared to 62% in 2008.
- The amount of energy a bulb uses is an important factor for almost all (91%).
Consumers continue to choose CFLs.
- CFLs continue to be second only to traditional bulbs. Most (71%) say they have CFLs in their home.
- Most (79%) say they are likely to purchase CFLs in the future — citing energy efficiency as their primary benefit (32%).
- Halogen (40%) and LEDs (12%) are less popular.
- Price (31%) and mercury (27%) continue to be the primary concerns about CFLs.
- Awareness of the ban is still low. Almost three-quarters of consumers (74%) still do not know that Congress banned traditional incandescent light bulbs by 2014 — not statistically different from last year (78% unaware)
- Even fewer (82%) know that 100W bulbs will not be available after Jan. 1, 2012.
- The majority (66%) of consumers say they will switch to a new technology light bulb.
- Only 13% say they will buy up extra 100W bulbs, and 16% say they will switch to lower wattage incandescent light bulbs.
- Those who say they will switch are most likely to switch to CFLs (57%), although many are unsure (25%).
This survey was conducted over a 3-day period in November 2009. According to Osram Sylvania, more than 300 interviews were conducted with homeowners and renters nationwide. Adult respondents were surveyed via phone, using random digit dial techniques.

Khloe Kardashian is going through hell right now but trying to put on brave face to the world ... or so it seems.
Khloe tweeted a picture of herself Friday night -- looking flawless -- and NOT looking like a woman on the brink. An hour later she offered an explanation, writing "Smile and no one will notice." A pretty clear message.
TMZ broke the story ... Khloe is trying everything she can to save husband Lamar Odom from his downward spiral, which stems from an intense crack addiction.

To see "56 Up" is to be reunited with an old friend. Make that 13 old friends, together again for a documentary project the likes of which the world has never seen.
It all started in 1964, when Britain's Granada TV gathered 7-year-old schoolchildren from divergent economic backgrounds and asked them to talk about their dreams, their ambitions, their fears for the future.
That 40-minute program went so well that future director Michael Apted ("Coal Miner's Daughter," "Gorillas in the Mist"), who was a researcher on the original show, came back to interview everyone seven years later to see what the passage of time had done to their thinking. He's been back every seven years since, making for a remarkable string of eight documentary features that add up to a matchless portrait of our time.
One idea behind the original "Seven Up," inspired by the Jesuit notion of "Give me the child until he is seven and I will give you the man," was to see whether England was still in the grip of a Dickensian class system that doomed the children of the poor to inferior lives.

Chicago was just eliminated from consideration for the 2016 Olympics -- in fact, it was eliminated in the first round of voting.
The winning city was Rio de Janeiro -- which, if you think about it, is awweeeesome!

No games with odds available
There is a saying in Las Vegas: you win it on Saturday and give it back on Sunday. That expression promotes the old myth that beating the college football points spread is easy but winning in the NFL is much harder. Also known as the line or spread, it is not the predicted margin of victory for one team but rather a number chosen by Las Vegas and overseas oddsmakers that will encourage an equal number of people to wager on the underdog as on the favorite. The negative value (-13.5) indicates that team is favored by 13.5 points. The positive value (+13.5) indicates that team is the underdog by 13.5 points. Betting on the favorite means the team must win by at least 14 points to cover the point spread. The underdog team can lose by 13 points and still cover the spread. You will also notice a moneyline value associated with the point spread (such as -13.5, -115). This indicates how much you must risk in order to place the bet (also known as the vig or juice). It means you have to risk $115 to win $100. The underdog may see a value such as +13.5, +105. This means you risk $1,000 to win $105 if your team covers the spread. The spread is not a static number, so you will notice line moves during the week. Team A may be favored by 3 points on Tuesday and by 4.5 points on Friday. This indicates more people are betting on them, so Las Vegas increases the underdog value hoping to encourage more wagers on the underdog.
There are times when moneyline wagering is smarter than point-spread wagering and this is why moneylines are growing in popularity. Typically used in baseball and hockey, pro football moneylines are popular in Las Vegas for picking underdogs. The team you choose only has to win the game, not win by a certain number of runs or goals. The negative value still indicates the favorite (-150) and the positive value indicates the underdog (+130). It's easiest to picture the number 100 sitting in the middle of these two values. For example, if you want to pick a -150 favorite, you would risk $150 in order to win $100. On the underdog, you would risk $100 and win $130 if the underdog wins. It's a simple way to have the risk-reward scenario. In the right circumstance, where you have a small underdog, you can get a very similar bet by risking less and also get a bigger payout by going the moneyline route.
It is also widely known as the over/under and, just like the point-spread myth, it is not the Las Vegas guess at how many points will be scored in the game by both teams combined. It's a number it feels will encourage just as many bets on the over as the under. If you picked the under 47.5, you want tough defense and teams running the ball to eat the clock. If you pick the over, you want offensive fireworks and long bombs for TDs. In totals betting, you are predicting whether the combined total score will be more than or less than the total.
Right after the BCS champion has been crowned, new odds on next year's title game will go up in Las Vegas. Wagers on a future event (like who will win next year's college football championship) are known as college football futures. Oddsmakers adjust lines during the year, depending on the strength or weakness of teams, then offer wagers on each team to win. For example, a league's top team may be +150 to win the championship. That means a $100 wager would pay $150 profit. However, a poor team might be +3000, indicating it is not expected to win and a $100 wager would pay $3,000 as a huge longshot. They can be profitable but also take a long time to settle the bet.

EAU CLAIRE, Wis. (Blugolds.com) - The UW-Eau Claire women's soccer is starting to make a lot of noise in the WIAC. Saturday, they welcomed the conference leader and 15th-ranked, UW-Oshkosh to Bollinger Field and handed the Titans a 4-2 loss, their first of the season.
It was parents' weekend and the weather could not have been better for a day of soccer. The Blugolds gave their parents plenty to cheer for once the game started as well.
The Blugolds scored first at 10:31 of the first half. Paige LeGate (Jr.-Green Bay, Wis./Bay Port) scored her first goal of the season on a pass from Gina Williams (Sr.-Madison, Wis./Verona Area).
The Titans knotted the score back up at 1-all at 17:58 on a penalty kick. Both teams were aggressive the rest of the half, but the score remained tied at halftime.
At 51:34, the Blugolds were given a penalty kick after the Titans picked up a foul in the penalty box. Williams buried the kick, her eighth goal of the year, to give the Blugolds a lead they would not give back up.
Less than a minute later, Williams struck again on an assist by LeGate to give UW-Eau Claire the 3-1 lead.
Not wanting to risk anything, the Blugolds kept the pressure on to get an insurance goal, and at 61:30, Katie Richter (Sr.-Waukesha, Wis./West) delivered. Ashley Seymour (Fr.-Verona, Wis./Verona Area) and Williams assisted on the goal.
The Titans cut the lead in half with less than five minutes to play, but by then it was too much to overcome and the Blugolds held on for the win.
Nina Behrenbrinker (Jr.-St. Paul, Minn./Cretin-Derham Hall) made one save and picked up the win in goal for the Blugolds. Amanda Hakala (Sr.-Stillwater, Minn/Stillwater Area) played the final 11:08 and made two saves in relief.
The Blugolds are above .500 for the first time this season and have now won four in a row. They improve to 5-4-1 and 3-1-0 in conference. They head to Superior on Monday for a conference match with UW-Superior.
They will be back home on Wednesday for a non-conference matchup with St. Olaf (Minn.). Both games are set to start at 4 p.m., with Wednesday's match back at Bollinger Field.

If you are not increasing corn plant populations every year, you may not be reaping full yield benefits, says Roger Elmore, extension corn specialist, Iowa State University. Elmore has found that a population of about 35,000 plants/acre is optimal for yield in tests he conducted throughout Iowa.
Corn plant populations have increased by about 400 plants/acre/year in Iowa over the last 20 years. Plant population numbers also are going up in other parts of the Corn Belt due to development of hybrids that are more tolerant of high population stress. Peak populations of 35,000 to 40,000 plants/acre are about 2,000 plants/acre greater than just a decade ago.
Researchers and farmers in corn yield contests have planted as many as 60,000 to 65,000 plants/acre, but Elmore suggests that growers try testing 30,000, 35,000 and 40,000 seeding rates, with at least three replications within a field or in three different fields. The replications increase the chance that measured yield differences are due to the seeding rates and not the specific location within a field, Elmore explains.
Growers need to step up their level of management at higher plant populations, says Fred Below, University of Illinois crop physiologist. This includes managing row arrangement and fertilizer placement. Geography plays a large role in plant population, Below says. In shorter maturity areas with longer daylight, growers may plant higher populations to intercept more sunlight, he notes, adding that some growers have reduced row spacing from 30 to 20 in.
Iowa State University's 2001 Corn Planting Guide indicates a relationship between seeds planted, distance between seeds and projected final plant stand. For a final plant population of 30,600 (assuming 15% mortality), for example, one would plant 36,000 seeds/acre if using a 30-in.-row system. In this scenario, there would be 5.8 in. between each seed in a row. To estimate plants per acre, one should count plants (not tillers) for one row and multiply by 1,000, taking into account the row width (30 in., for example) and row length (in feet equal to 1/1,000th acre).
Plant population refers to the number of plants per acre while seeding rate refers to the number of seeds planted per acre. Growers will need to plant more seed than the plant population they hope to achieve. The cost of seed, therefore, may be a limiting factor. Seed germination percentage, soil fertility and weather are also factors.
The development of more drought-tolerant hybrids may allow growers in dryer areas (western Iowa and eastern Nebraska, for example) to increase plant populations in the future.
With continual improvements in corn genetics and the growing demand for corn, plant populations will continue to rise, possibly from 400 to 500 plants/acre/year. "We'll never see them go down again," Below says.
