Paris Air Show: IAG plans to buy 200 737 MAX jets
IAG (parent of British Airways), announced at the Paris Air Show today that it plans to purchase 200 Boeing MAX jets.

International Airlines Group (IAG) and Boeing said the two companies have been in discussions regarding the opportunity and signed a letter of intent at the Paris Air Show in a deal that would be valued at more than US$24 billion. The mix of 737-8 and 737-10 aircraft would be delivered between 2023 and 2027 and would be powered by CFM Leap engines. It is anticipated that the aircraft would be used by a number of the Group's airlines including Vueling and LEVEL, plus British Airways at London Gatwick airport.
IAG is the parent company of Aer Lingus, British Airways, Iberia, Vueling and LEVEL that fly more than 113 million passengers a year combined. The group has been a long-time operator of Boeing twin-aisle airplanes. Earlier this year, IAG group committed to and finalised a major order for Boeing's newest long-haul model, the 777X, to complement its fleet of current-generation 777s and new 787 Dreamliners. In the single-aisle segment, IAG and its affiliates used to operate Classic 737 aircraft.
Today, its fleet is almost exclusively Airbus A320 family aircraft. IAG CEO Willie Walsh has said the group would consider the 737 MAX as part of diversifying its future fleet to spur competition.
"We're very pleased to sign this letter of intent with Boeing and are certain that these aircraft will be a great addition to IAG's short-haul fleet," said Willie Walsh, IAG chief executive. "We have every confidence in Boeing and expect that the aircraft will make a successful return to service in the coming months having received approval from the regulators."
In selecting the 737 MAX, IAG says it will fly a combination of the 737 MAX 8, which seats up to 178 passengers in a two-class configuration and the larger 737 MAX 10 jet, which can accommodate as many as 230 passengers. The airline did not disclose a specific split between the two MAX models, though it anticipates deploying the aircraft at a number of the group's airlines including Vueling and LEVEL.
"We are truly honoured and humbled by the leadership at International Airlines Group for placing their trust and confidence in the 737 MAX and, ultimately, in the people of Boeing and our deep commitment to quality and safety above all else," said Boeing Commercial Airplanes President & CEO Kevin McAllister. "We are delighted that the IAG team recognised the superior qualities of the 737 MAX and has indicated an intention to return to the Boeing 737 family. We look forward to building on our long-standing partnership with IAG for many years to come."
IAG is one of the world's largest airline groups with 582 aircraft flying to 268 destinations, carrying 113 million passengers in 2018.

President Ilham Aliyev visited Sheki region on July 29 where he inaugurated a number of new projects.
First, Azerbaijani President inaugurated a Gohmug-Baltali- Babaratma-Garadagli-Gubula-Dashuz highway, after the reconstruction.
Saleh Mammadov, chairman of the State Highway Agency of Azerbaijan, informed the head of state that the fourth class technical road with the length of 33 kilometers has two lanes. The Gohmug-Baltali-Babaratma-Garadagli-Gudula-Dashuz highway, reconstructed by a relevant decree signed by the President of Azerbaijan last year, connects 6 settlements with a population of 11,000 people. A 59-meter long and 7.4-meter wide reinforced concrete bridge across the Ayrichay River has been repaired at the 17th km of the highway.
President was also informed of the Shirinbulag highway construction project, which is separated from 134 kilometers of Garamaram-Ismayilli Sheki highway in Sheki region. It was noted the length of this road connecting 5 settlements with the population of 4000 people is 28.1 km.
Moreover, president inaugurated a modular hospital complex for the treatment of coronavirus infected people.
The Head of State was informed that, as with other modular hospital complexes, the necessary conditions have been created to receive and treat coronavirus infected patients with moderate symptoms. The installation of these complexes near the region central hospitals will ensure unified management and medical coordination. On the other hand, this opens up a wide range of opportunities to provide coronavirus patients with the necessary medical services.
It was noted that a three-storey hospital of 3,000 square metres had 100 wards and 200 beds. The hospital is equipped with a centralized oxygen generation system. A special ventilation system installed here transmits air to the cells after cleaning by means of a ventilation device.
It should be noted that the modular auxiliary buildings of the hospital were installed on a simple concrete foundation in a short time and can be moved and used for other purposes if necessary.
After familiarization with the hospital, President Ilham Aliyev met with doctors, and addressed the meeting.
Speech of President Ilham Aliyev
- Modular hospitals are opening in four cities of our country today. This is a very significant event. One of them is in Shaki and the others in Gobustan, Ismayilli and Gabala. So in one day we are receiving an additional 800 beds and creating additional opportunities in the fight against coronavirus.
About three months ago, I signed an order on the acquisition of modular hospitals. I said that 10 hospitals should be delivered to our country in a short time. Nine of them are ready now and the tenth hospital will probably be commissioned in August. Thus, the program will be fully executed. To date, we have opened five hospitals, and as a result of the operation of 10 hospitals, we will have an additional 2,000 beds.
This is of particular importance because coronavirus is currently assuming greater proportions in Azerbaijan and around the world. Hundreds of people fall ill in Azerbaijan every day. Under such circumstances, a lack of beds could create huge problems that we see in some developed countries. The healthcare system of even developed countries cannot cope with this. Taking this into account, we are trying to quickly resolve these issues and are on the way to achieving this. I should also say that the issue of delivery to our country of six more modular-type hospitals with 200 beds each is being resolved. They will also be delivered shortly.
In parallel, a hospital of the Ministry of Emergency Situations with 800 beds has already been opened. A second hospital with 1,300 beds will also be opened. So we will have 2,100 beds there. A fund of 2,000 beds is already available. This makes up 4,100 beds. As a result of the operation of six additional modular-type hospitals, we will have an approximate capacity of 6,000 beds. Of course, if these issues were not resolved, we could face major problems related to the coronavirus today.
I should note that coronavirus patients are currently receiving treatment in 46 hospitals in our country. Forty-one of these hospitals were built or overhauled and equipped with modern facilities over the past 16 years. Just imagine that if we had not done this work in good time, our possibilities would be very limited today. Several years ago, opposite this modular hospital, a large hospital with about 200 beds was opened in Shaki. Modern hospitals are functioning or will begin to function within a year in all our cities. We have created the infrastructure of our healthcare system. This hospital also has an intensive care unit, artificial lung ventilation equipment has been delivered. As you know, major funds have been allocated to effectively combat the coronavirus. They are being spent on equipment, medicines and other issues. I have said that as much funds will be allocated as it is necessary for people to recover as soon as possible, so that we could come out of this difficult situation with small losses.
Before the pandemic, we had only six laboratories in the country. This was probably enough for the normal regime. But a total of 700,000 tests have been conducted in Azerbaijan to date. In terms of the number of tests per capita, we are one of the leading places in the world. As a result of the large-scale implementation of these tests, we identify patients and treat them. As a result of operational measures taken, the number of laboratories has now reached 31 today. We plan to increase the number of these laboratories to 45. This issue is also being resolved. The bed capacity is being increased and patients with coronavirus are being treated in the most modern hospitals, including our best hospital "Yeni Klinik". There are currently 360 patients there. As you know, the operation of this clinic is organized in stages.
Notice that if this clinic had not been established and if 41 other hospitals where coronavirus patients are being treated now had not been built, then we would be faced with a very difficult situation today. This shows once again that we must do everything on time. The program on the construction of new hospitals and the overhaul of the old ones, which is an integral part of the state program on the socioeconomic development of the regions, has been practically implemented in full. Even before the pandemic people were already saying that it would bring great benefits. Because before the pandemic, we were conducting a program of medical examination of the population every year. This program covers five million people. Five million people are screened using the opportunities created by the state and are immediately treated if a disease is detected. This is why our life expectancy is increasing. Even the most complex operations are carried out in Azerbaijan today.
In a word, by mobilizing all the possibilities in a short time, we are demonstrating even greater readiness in the fight against COVID. No country is ready for this, not a single one. In particular, both we and the whole world saw the situation in developed countries in the early days of the pandemic. The most developed countries were unable to provide the necessary medical services related to this disease. And this is probably natural because no-one was ready for this.
Therefore, our main goal was to properly organize all the mobilization work in a short time, create the necessary infrastructure, provide the material and technical resources in order to come out of the pandemic with minimal losses. Laboratories, hospitals and other major organizational issues were resolved, including logistical ones. At the same time, specific steps were taken to improve the financial situation of doctors. The salaries of doctors providing services to COVID patients have been increased three to five times. One of the most important and serious problems is the shortage of doctors because the number of our doctors is designed for normal operation. Therefore, the sharp increase in the number of patients certainly revealed this problem as well. We found a way out of this situation by inviting foreign doctors to Azerbaijan.
Of course, the country must be able to organize and finance all these issues. Therefore, at present, there are doctors from several foreign countries in Azerbaijan. They provide services to the sick. I believe that if necessary, we can apply this practice in the future too.
All necessary steps are being taken to combat the pandemic. In a short time, our country even began the production of medical masks, disinfectants and overalls for doctors. We did not have the production of all this before, and we did not need it either. Of course, countries don't have to produce all the consumable goods, but we saw that it was difficult to deliver some equipment and supplies from abroad. Sometimes the signed contracts were not executed, the money was paid but we still could not deliver the necessary equipment, especially at the initial stage of the pandemic when there was a lot of anxiety in the world.
As a result of all this work, we have kept the disease under control since the first days. From the very beginning, both the citizens of Azerbaijan and the World Health Organization highly appreciated our work. I still receive letters of gratitude as people note that the Azerbaijani state promptly organized all this work and protects people's health. The position of international organizations is also positive. The World Health Organization has described our work as exemplary. I believe that our policy of relaxation measures at the beginning of May was correct because the dynamics associated with the disease was positive at the time. There were more recovering people than those getting infected. Therefore, we went for mitigation because we knew that people were worried about this. People were deprived of their usual way of life. Therefore, we went for mitigation. But what did they see? We saw that the number of patients immediately began to grow. The positive dynamics was disrupted and we re-entered a phase of negative dynamics. So re-tightening was inevitable. Tough restrictive measures were introduced again. About a month after the start of these measures, we are observing positive dynamics again. For more than two weeks now, the number of people who have recovered in our country has been exceeding that of the infected. This is a positive trend. We all want the quarantine regime to end as soon as possible, so that we can return to our usual way of life as soon as possible. But we also see that even with the slightest mitigation the disease immediately begins to gain momentum, starts to spread rapidly and endanger people's lives.
This disease knows no age. Everyone is at risk – the elderly, middle-aged and young people. At first, it was believed that it was more dangerous for the elderly and that young people do not particularly suffer from it. But notice that young people, middle-aged people and healthy people are dying today. It was believed that people suffering from chronic diseases were at risk. This is true. But absolutely healthy people and athletes get sick as well, and seriously sick. Therefore, research on this disease is still a matter of the future. I believe that scientists still do not know the exact origins of this disease. Various theories are being put forward. I would not like to talk about it as I am not an expert. But the fact is that after the full identification of the origins and causes of the disease, it will probably become easier to treat it.
Of course, we must know that we will have to come to terms with this situation until the vaccine is developed. We should also know that although the situation is under control – doctors are well aware of this – coronavirus has not disappeared and will not disappear. We will have to live with this virus. Therefore, the moments that have been added to our traditional way of life must remain in force for a certain time: keeping a distance, personal hygiene and, of course, responsibility. I believe that by joint efforts we will get out of this situation with low losses. Let me say again: as a result of the work done so far, the situation is fully under control. We will continue to do whatever is necessary to fight the disease. Having overcome all the economic hardships, we will resolve the main issue.
Today, our results for six months, as is the case in all other countries, are not very positive. The economy is in decline. It is not particularly large though – 2.7 percent, but we had great plans for this year. Despite this, not a single social project will be cut. On the contrary, so much money has been spent and will continue to be spent on fighting the disease and on improving the financial situation of people suffering from the disease. Hundreds of thousands of people are covered by the material support program from the state. We have to increase expenditures and it is necessary to revise budget spending because the attraction of additional funding for these purposes will be inevitable. These funds, of course, were not budgeted for. Therefore, a change will probably be introduced to the budget, and I think that this is the right step because the primary issue for us at present is the health of people and their lives.
Of course, along with the efforts of the state, a lot also depends on the activities of doctors, their role is crucial. You are always in contact with patients, risking your health and life. Unfortunately, the number of deaths among doctors is growing. We can get out of this situation only through joint efforts – the responsibility of state bodies, the professionalism of doctors, their loyalty to their oath and the responsibility of citizens. We must get out of this situation through collective efforts. I am sure that it will be the case. I wish you success. Take good care of the patients. Take care of yourself and your loved ones. Try not to get sick. I wish you good health and success. Once again, I congratulate you!
President Ilham Aliyev: Thank you very much! I also sincerely congratulate you on the holy Eid al-Adha. Let me say that you are absolutely right. I have always paid attention to the city of Shaki. This is my tenth visit to Shaki, which is an indicator in itself.
In recent years, a lot has been done in the field of both the implementation of infrastructure projects in the city of Shaki and the restoration of its historical monuments. Having arrived here, I once again familiarized myself with the work done. I see that most of the infrastructure projects have been implemented here, the level of gasification has reached about 80 percent and the supply of electricity is normal. We once built a modular power plant in Shaki. The road facilities are being updated. Both rural roads and the Shaki-Gakh-Balakan road meet the highest standards now. I will sign an instruction to take into account the reconstruction of the Shaki-Oguz road in the state program, so that this work can be completed soon.
Tourism projects are being implemented. Numerous hotels have been built. Of course, tourism cannot develop without the infrastructure. Opposite this modular hospital, there is a wonderful central city hospital, the Olympic center, the "ASAN xidmət" center and other facilities. Of course, the inclusion of the city center together with the Palace of Shaki Khans in the UNESCO World Heritage List last year is a historic event. This is another great victory for Azerbaijan. The Maiden Tower, Icherisheher, Gobustan and Shaki – this is no coincidence. Of course, the factors you mentioned have played the key role. But in parallel, as a result of the introduction of Shaki to the world and an increase in the number of visitors coming here, the city is better known all over the world. The expert commission, of course, took into account all these factors. Shaki does deserve to be included in the World Heritage List. This is yet another great victory for us, the victory of the entire Azerbaijani people. Therefore, all the necessary steps will continue to be taken. I know that one of the problems is associated with city school number 7, which was built in 1925. An order will be signed on the reconstruction of this school, the laying of the road and other issues. In other words, it is impossible to list all the work done. Most importantly, we are approaching this systematically – social infrastructure, schools, agriculture, industrial potential and, of course, the development of tourism. The tourism sector was hit hard by the pandemic. We had excellent development in this area. More than 3 million tourists visited our country last year. Tourists alone spent about $2 billion in our country, which has benefited tens of thousands of people working in the tourism sector. We expected 3.5 million tourists this year. But at present, tourism, as elsewhere, is practically at zero level. Therefore, it is necessary to give priority to domestic tourism because no-one knows when the pandemic will end. After it is over, the recovery of the tourism sector will take some time because people will be afraid of travel. Therefore, given that a certain percentage of Shaki's development is associated with tourism, we will certainly take this factor into account. However, you can rest assured that the development of the city of Shaki and Shaki District will continue to be in the spotlight and issues of concern to the people will be resolved. One of them is the drinking water project. Unfortunately, this project has been dragging on too long; it should have been completed long ago. I am told that 55 percent of the project has been completed. I hope that it will be fully completed in the near future. As you know, this project is funded by international financial institutions, and one of the reasons for the delay is precisely this – the negotiations took a long time. But I know that this is a very important project and, as I have already noted, a significant part of it has been implemented, the necessary funds will also be allocated for the implementation of the remaining part.
I am sure that all other issues will be successfully resolved because our country has excellent prospects. We have already created a stable economy, the citizens of Azerbaijan did not even feel the fall in the oil price. In this difficult situation, we are allocating major funds to fight the pandemic. As I said, additions must be made to the state budget and corrections must be made. Additional expenses will be attracted so that people live better, so that our country increases its power and develops even more. Once again, I congratulate you and wish you success. Thank you.

Designing an exterior sign such as channel letters for your business may seem very complicated and overwhelming. It doesn?t have to be, though. If you are thinking about designing and installing channel letter signs for your property, learning a few simple principles of design can help you a lot with the process.
The best part is, you don?t have to be a graphic designer or an artist to understand these concepts. In fact, they?re fairly basic and easy to comprehend, especially when it comes to signage.
Principle # 1: Proportion
This particular principle may seem obvious, but it is still important. You will want your channel letters to be proportional to the rest of your sign (if there?s a logo with it, for example) as well as the exterior wall of your property.
If your channel letter sign is too big, then it will overpower everything around it, including any other signs you may have, like window graphics, for example. If it is too small, it will not be seen too easily.
A good sign has good proportions, which makes it visually pleasing to look at.
Principle # 2: Balance
Balance doesn?t have to always be about large versus small. It can include color and the ?weight? that certain colors give the letters of the sign. To give an example, think of how ?heavy? black appears visually as opposed to white or yellow. If your sign has too much white, it may not be imposing enough, and therefore will be hard to see. However, you wouldn?t want an all-black sign on a black or dark blue wall. Consider your surroundings when thinking about balance for your channel letter signs, so that there will be a good level of contrast as well.
Principle # 3: Unity
This principle goes hand-in-hand with balance. Unity is the concept that every separate part of a design or artwork works together to create a coherent and cohesive whole. Again, color plays a huge part in this. Use complementary colors in your channel letters to create a feeling of ?one-ness?. This will be pleasant to look at, while still grabbing people?s attention. Include a color that has a high level of contrast with the others for maximum effect.
Get Well-Designed Channel Letter Signs
Now that you?ve learned some key basics of designing a sign, once you?ve made your decision, get in touch with Graphicworks Sign Company. We are your source for quality channel letter signs, and we?d love to hear about whatever creative ideas you have. Contact us today for a free quote.

St Patrick's Athletic 3
Cobh Ramblers 2
THE WHEELS MAY have come off St Patrick's Athletic's league season but they are still gunning for glory in both cup competitions after they advanced to the semi-final of the FAI Cup with a 3-2 win over Cobh Ramblers at Richmond Park.
Ramblers made the trip with the hope of piling on the misery in Inchicore after Pat's disappointing home defeat to Bray on Tuesday.
But the extra guile in the final third was enough for the Saints as they came through the tie after goals from Christy Fagan, Jamie McGrath and Billy Dennehy eased the pressure on Liam Buckley's shoulders.
Connor Ellis and Rob Lehane replied to make it a nervy last half hour for the 2014 Cup winners who just about held out.
Pats' superiority was evident from the off as they completely controlled possession in the middle third. They had the ball in the net on nine minutes when Fagan's cross was tapped in at the back post by Billy Dennehy but he was adjudged to have been offside.
The next one counted though as the home side took a deserved lead on the quarter hour mark. Sean Hoare was given time and space to pick out Fagan who got in between the Cobh central defensive partnership of Chris McCarthy and Kevin Mulcahy to head home at the near post for his 12th goal of the season.
The lead was doubled five minutes later as Jamie McGrath hammered home from close range. The clinical finish from the youngster came after a free-kick straight off the training ground as Dennehy played in O'Brien whose effort was blocked, with the rebound falling to McGrath who slammed home.
The gulf in class between the sides was clear to see with Ramblers struggling to break out of their own half. Pat's were pressing high up which aided them in their third as Conan Byrne dispossessed Ian Mylod before the winger squared to the completely unmarked Dennehy who had the simple task of slotting past Paul Hunt.
In a rare foray forward, the First Division side nearly pulled one back as Mylod found Jonathan Creamer with a diagonal ball but the Cobh forward's lob went just over.
Cobh looked a different side after the break as they made a double substitution with Ellis and Garry Comerford introduced with the switches paying off within three minutes.
After a ball over the top, Ellis was clumsily brought down in the box by Michael Barker before he took the spot kick himself and calmly slotted past Brendan Clarke.
Pat's had become lackadaisical at the back and the Cork side pulled another one back just past the hour mark when a long throw in wasn't dealt with by Barker allowing Lehane to race on to the through ball before slipping a left foot shot under Clarke.
The visitor's second goal spurred Liam Buckley's men back into action with Fagan having another goal ruled out for offside and Dennehy headed straight as Hunt when he ought to have done better.
Ramblers pushed for a late equaliser with a couple of anxious moments in the Pat's box but they couldn't find the goal they needed to force a replay.
ST PATRICK'S ATHLETIC: Brendan Clarke; Ger O'Brien (Rory Feely, 67), Michael Barker, Sean Hoare, Ian Bermingham; Lee Desmond, Graham Kelly, Billy Dennehy, Conan Byrne, Jamie McGrath (Jonathan Lunney, 40); Christy Fagan.

I am aware, nearly firsthand, of three stories. (not one of them are my tale, but we lived in proximity to any or all three.) I've met and spent time along with of the partners. We shall connect their experiences 'best' to 'worst.'
The very first tale is many 'unlike' a 'mail-order' situation. It involves a good-natured but bookish (computer-employed) guy, near to Stephen Tobolowsky in features and demeanor, whom met A chinese-born woman under long-distance communication circumstances. The girl relocated to your States (when you look at the 1970s), a married relationship happened during or right after that point, as well as an exotic-but-attractive son lead. Poetically, the lady that is chinese scouting around on the two siblings' behalf for prospective lovers — both siblings married likewise tech-employed American males (introduced via very very first cousin) over the following couple of years, and all sorts of three families purchased homes in identical Massachusetts community ( maybe perhaps not instant next-door neighbors, but up/down the road), where they nevertheless reside even today. Two marriages have actually worked out "well" (traditionally stable); the next is a bit troubled, as a result of spouse's nerdier-than-average disposition and psychological (anger) dilemmas, but continues to be marginally together. You can surmise that the siblings' ongoing proximity and help helps you to solidify just exactly exactly what might otherwise have now been an isolated/lonely/fearful situation. Only at that true point they all are 80% Americanized.

AT&T AT&T today launched its gigabit fiber Internet service in parts of Cupertino, California, but the price isn't as good as it is in cities where AT&T faces competition from Google Fiber. Google Fiber and AT&T's U-verse with GigaPower compete head-to-head in Kansas City and Austin. In those cities, AT&T matches Google's $70-per-month price for gigabit service, as long as you opt into a program that lets AT&T watch your Web browsing and serve up personalized ads . Further Reading But AT&T charges more when it doesn't have to compete against Google. In Cupertino, AT&T said today it will offer "Internet speeds up to 1Gbps starting as low as $110 a month, or speeds at 300Mbps as low as $80 a month, with a one-year price guarantee." Despite being $40 more than AT&T's price for the same gigabit service in Kansas City and Austin, the Cupertino offer still requires opting in to the Internet usage monitoring. Google has tentative plans for fiber service in nearby San Jose but hasn't announced a decision yet. In Dallas, another city where AT&T doesn't have to compete against Google, it charges $120 a month for gigabit service. In North Carolina, AT&T reportedly dropped pricing from $120 to $70 after Google announced plans to expand into that state. AT&T's GigaPower is now available in seven metro areas nationwide; AT&T says it plans to bring the fiber service to another 10 metro areas and is exploring an additional eight for possible deployments. AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson last year claimed the company would "pause" its fiber investments because of the Federal Communications Commission decision to regulate broadband service more forcefully. AT&T quickly backtracked and today said it is still "considering expanding its all-fiber network to up to 100 cities and municipalities across 25 markets." AT&T also claims it needs federal approval of its purchase of DirecTV to further expand its fiber plans. CenturyLink is expanding its gigabit fiber deployments with new plans for 505 multi-unit housing developments in Utah. Meanwhile, Google announced last week that it will bring its fiber service to Salt Lake City. Google Fiber also just filed a business registration in Colorado , though the company says it has no concrete plans for that state. Verizon has more extensive fiber deployments than Google, AT&T, or CenturyLink, but is done expanding .Read More »
Valve to offer HTC Vive Developer Edition for free initially; sign-ups begin as soon as next week with kits shipping later in spring (Kyle Orland/Ars…
Our own Sebastian Anthony reacts to the price of the HTC Vive Developer Edition. Sebastian Anthony With its Rift development kit program , Oculus has charged $300 to $350 to tens of thousands of developers (and doubtless some ultra-early-adopting consumers) who wanted to get their hands on early versions of the headset. Valve is going in a different direction with the Vive VR headset it's developing in conjunction with HTC, offering an early Developer Edition for free to qualified developers. So far, Valve and HTC have seeded kits to a handful of specially chosen developers, including Owlchemy Labs ( Aaaaaa! For The Awesome ), Bossa Studios ( Surgeon Simulator, I Am Bread ), Fireproof Games ( The Room ), and Cloudhead Games ( The Gallery ). Others will have to wait; "more info and 'sign up' forms will be available to all interested developers, big or small, via a new site coming soon," Valve spokesperson Doug Lombardi told Ars Technica. The current hope is to get the sign-up site up and running next week, Lombardi says. Approved developers will get a Developer Edition kit that "will be free, at least initially," Lombardi said. Those kits will start shipping later in the spring as part of an "ongoing effort" to get the development hardware out widely ahead of a planned 2014 consumer launch. The decision to release it for free is interesting given that HTC Connected Products Marketing Executive Director Jeff Gattis recently said consumers should expect "a slightly higher price point" for the final version of the hardware. Further Reading Demand for what's sure to be a limited number of free development kits is likely to be extremely high, but Lombardi hasn't addressed how developers will be prioritized to receive the hardware. While developers "big and small" will be welcome to apply for consideration, it's unclear what kind of mix will be chosen to get access to the first available Developer Edition units. It's also unclear just how many development kits will be available in the initial batch of spring shipments. HTC notes on its developer page that the Vive Developer Edition will be available "to select developers" in spring, and it offers an e-mail list for further updates. Valve's SteamVR landing page notes that the Developer Edition "comes with a headset, two controllers and two base stations—everything you need to dive in and start creating new interactive VR experiences." Unlike Oculus' Rift distribution plan, Valve's system should make it more difficult for members of the general public (and the press) to get their hands on still-in-development hardware ahead of the consumer release. This has been the standard operating procedure for gaming hardware for most of the industry's history—most everyday consumers never get a chance to sample an upcoming console until it's available on store shelves.Read More »
Tennessee's attorney general wants court to set aside FCC's municipal broadband ruling (Jon Brodkin/Ars Technica)
Tennessee state capitol. The State of Tennessee is fighting for its right to enforce a law that prevents municipal broadband networks from providing Internet service to other cities and towns. Tennessee filed a lawsuit Friday against the Federal Communications Commission, which last month voted to preempt state laws in Tennessee and North Carolina that prevent municipal broadband providers from expanding outside their territories. The FCC cited its authority granted in 1996 by Section 706 of the Telecommunications Act, which requires the FCC to encourage the deployment of broadband to all Americans by using "measures that promote competition in the local telecommunications market, or other regulating methods that remove barriers to infrastructure investment ." (Emphasis ours.) Further Reading In Tennessee, the Electric Power Board (EPB) of Chattanooga offers Internet and video service to residents, but state law prevented it from expanding outside its electric service area to adjacent towns that have poor Internet service. Tennessee is one of about 20 states that impose some type of restriction on municipal broadband networks, helping protect private Internet service providers from competition. Tennessee isn't going to give up its restriction on municipal broadband without a fight. "The FCC has unlawfully inserted itself between the State of Tennessee and the State's own political subdivisions," Tennessee Attorney General Herbert Slatery wrote in the state's petition to the US Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. "The State of Tennessee, as a sovereign and a party to the proceeding below, is aggrieved and seeks relief on the grounds that the Order: (1) is contrary to the United States Constitution; (2) is in excess of the Commission's authority; (3) is arbitrary, capricious, and an abuse of discretion within the meaning of the Administrative Procedure Act; and (4) is otherwise contrary to law." It's no surprise that the FCC is facing a lawsuit over its decision, as this is the first time the commission has tested its Section 706 authority by preempting state laws restricting municipal broadband. Despite Tennessee's lawsuit, there are members of the state legislature who want to get rid of the restrictions on municipal broadband. Legislation in the state Senate and House would eliminate the provisions of state law that prevent municipal electric utilities from offering broadband and video service outside their electric service footprint. The legislation is scheduled for markups today, but AT&T and other telecom companies are lobbying against it, Communications Daily reported . One of Tennessee's representatives in Congress, US Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), introduced legislation to overturn the FCC's municipal broadband decision. The Tennessee restriction dates to 1999 , when the legislature authorized municipal electric systems to provide Internet access and cable TV, but only within their electric service areasRead More »
Ars Technica obtains the Oakland Police Department's database of 4.6M license plate scans through a public records request (Cyrus Farivar/Ars…
Further Reading OAKLAND, Calif.—If you have driven in Oakland any time in the last few years, chances are good that the cops know where you've been, thanks to their 33 automated license plate readers (LPRs). Now Ars knows too. In response to a public records request, we obtained the entire LPR dataset of the Oakland Police Department (OPD), including more than 4.6 million reads of over 1.1 million unique plates between December 23, 2010 and May 31, 2014. The dataset is likely the largest ever publicly released in the United States—perhaps in the world. After analyzing this data with a custom-built visualization tool, Ars can definitively demonstrate the data's revelatory potential. Anyone in possession of enough data can often—but not always—make educated guesses about a target's home or workplace, particularly when someone's movements are consistent (as with a regular commute). Enlarge / This map shows all the times that the OPD has seen Ars editor Cyrus Farivar's car between October 2012 and May 2014. Cyrus Farivar For instance, during a meeting with an Oakland city council member, Ars was able to accurately guess the block where the council member lives after less than a minute of research using his license plate data. Similarly, while "working" at an Oakland bar mere blocks from Oakland police headquarters, we ran a plate from a car parked in the bar's driveway through our tool. The plate had been read 48 times over two years in two small clusters: one near the bar and a much larger cluster 24 blocks north in a residential area—likely the driver's home. "Where someone goes can reveal a great deal about how he chooses to live his life," Catherine Crump , a law professor at the University of California, Berkeley, told Ars.Read More »
Google warns of unauthorized TLS certificates trusted by almost all OSes (Dan Goodin/Ars Technica)
In the latest security lapse involving the Internet's widely used encryption system, Google said unauthorized digital certificates have been issued for several of its domains and warned misissued credentials may be impersonating other unnamed sites as well. The bogus transport layer security certificates are trusted by all major operating systems and browsers, although a fall-back mechanism known as public key pinning prevented the Chrome and Firefox browsers from accepting those that vouched for the authenticity of Google properties, Google security engineer Adam Langley wrote in a blog post published Monday . The certificates were issued by Egypt-based MCS Holdings , an intermediate certificate authority that operates under the China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC). The Chinese domain registrar and certificate authority, in turn, is included in root stores for virtually all OSes and browsers. The issuance of the unauthorized certificates represents a major breach of rules established by certificate authorities and browser makers. Under no conditions are CAs allowed to issue certificates for domains other than those legitimately held by the customer requesting the credential. In early 2012, critics blasted US-based CA Trustwave for doing much the same thing and Langley noted an example of a France-based CA that has also run afoul of the policy. Langley wrote: We promptly alerted CNNIC and other major browsers about the incident, and we blocked the MCS Holdings certificate in Chrome with a CRLSet push. CNNIC responded on the 22nd to explain that they had contracted with MCS Holdings on the basis that MCS would only issue certificates for domains that they had registered. However, rather than keep the private key in a suitable HSM , MCS installed it in a man-in-the-middle proxy. These devices intercept secure connections by masquerading as the intended destination and are sometimes used by companies to intercept their employees' secure traffic for monitoring or legal reasonsRead More »
Trade group led by AT&T and Verizon sues FCC to overturn net neutrality (Jon Brodkin/Ars Technica)
The Federal Communications Commission's new net neutrality rules haven't taken effect yet, but they're already facing lawsuits from Internet service providers. One such lawsuit was filed today by USTelecom , which is led by AT&T, Verizon, and others. Another lawsuit was filed by a small Internet service provider in Texas called Alamo Broadband. ( The Washington Post flagged the lawsuits .) Further Reading The net neutrality order , which reclassifies broadband providers as common carriers and imposes rules against blocking and discriminating against online content, "is arbitrary, capricious, and an abuse of discretion," USTelecom alleged in its petition to the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. The order "violates federal law, including, but not limited to, the Constitution, the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and FCC regulations promulgated thereunder." The order also violates notice-and-comment rulemaking requirements, the petition said. The petitions don't go into any more detail on the Internet service providers' arguments. The timing is an issue; the FCC's rules haven't been published in the Federal Register and do not go into effect until 60 days after publication. USTelecom's suit says it "is filing this protective petition for review out of an abundance of caution... in case the FCC's Order (or the Declaratory Ruling part of that Order) is construed to be final on the date it was issued (as opposed to after Federal Register publication, which USTelecom believes is the better view)." Parties have ten days to file lawsuits from whichever date of publication ends up being the significant one. The full order was posted on the FCC's website on March 12 . The DC Circuit threw out similarly early appeals from Verizon and MetroPCS to the FCC's first net neutrality order back in April 2011 , calling them premature. Verizon ultimately filed after the correct date and won , forcing the FCC to start over. "We believe that the petitions for review filed today are premature and subject to dismissal," an FCC spokesperson told Ars. Lawsuits are also likely to be filed by the National Cable & Telecommunications Association and CTIA-The Wireless Association, the major trade groups representing cable and wireless operators. Trade groups, rather than individual Internet providers, are expected to lead the fight against the FCC this time around.Read More »
Windows 10 to make the Secure Boot alt-OS lock out a reality (Peter Bright/Ars Technica)
In Windows 8, OEMs must allow Secure Boot to be disabled. They won't have to in Windows 10. Those of you with long memories will recall a barrage of complaints in the run up to Windows 8's launch that concerned the ability to install other operating systems—whether they be older versions of Windows, or alternatives such as Linux or FreeBSD—on hardware that sported a "Designed for Windows 8" logo. To get that logo, hardware manufacturers had to fulfil a range of requirements for the systems they built, and one of those requirements had people worried. Windows 8 required machines to support a feature called UEFI Secure Boot. Secure Boot protects against that interferes with the boot process in order to inject itself into the operating system at a low level. When Secure Boot is enabled, the core components used to boot the machine must have correct cryptographic signatures, and the UEFI firmware verifies this before it lets the machine start. If any files have been tampered with, breaking their signature, the system won't boot. This is a desirable security feature, but it has an issue for alternative operating systems: if, for example, you prefer to compile your own operating system, your boot files won't include a signature that Secure Boot will recognize and authorize, and so you won't be able to boot your PC. However, Microsoft's rules for the Designed for Windows 8 logo included a solution to the problem they would cause: Microsoft also mandated that every system must have a user-accessible switch to turn Secure Boot off, thereby ensuring that computers would be compatible with other operating systems.Read More »
Evolution of the smartwatch, like the smartphone, will be a multi-year, multi-vendor effort, with Apple Watch now contributing app-centric approach…
This screen is important. Apple As much as patent and trade-dress lawsuits would like to stop it, getting to today's idea of a modern, mature smartphone was a collaborative effort. Apple laid the foundation with the first iPhone, which popularized the idea of a finger-driven all-screen device with an on-screen keyboard and later added an app store. Google later came up with now-standard functionality like a pull-down notification panel, voice input, and a heavy cloud component. Even Samsung helped out by giving the world the phablet and leading the charge toward larger screen sizes—today even Apple makes a 5.5-inch phone. Smartwatches will be a collaborative effort, too. Every new product advances the conversation of what these tiny wrist computers should be, and yesterday Apple gave a long, impassioned speech on the matter. And it was mostly stuff Android Wear did already. At least, the feature set mostly matched Android Wear. Feature sets aren't what make a device, though. The biggest change Apple is bringing to the smartwatch is its approach to apps.Read More »
Google's Project Loon balloons can cover an area the size of Rhode Island with LTE; remote locations still the primary targets for commercial service…
Getting ready for launch. Google Google's plan to deliver Internet service from balloons in the stratosphere has come a long way since being unveiled in June 2013. Further Reading A single "Project Loon" balloon can now remain in the air for more than six months and provide 4G LTE cellular service to an area the size of Rhode Island, according to Google. Company officials have taken to calling Loon balloons "cell towers in the sky." While there's no announced date for a widespread service launch, Google has provided Internet to a school in Brazil and is partnering with cellular operators Vodafone New Zealand, Telstra in Australia, and Telefónica in Latin America. The US probably won't be the first place Loon powers a commercial service. Google is aiming to get more people in developing countries on the Internet (and that's good for Google's business, since a lot of those people will use Google services). "For some countries, having Internet once a day for an hour is a huge deal," Google software engineer Johan Mathe, who plays a key role designing Loon's navigation system, told Ars in a phone interview last week. Rather than offer Internet service itself as it does with Google Fiber, Google's Project Loon is building technology that can integrate with the networks run by cellular operators. Telco operators can send signals from existing cell towers to Google's balloons, and then the balloons send the signals down to smartphones and other cellular-connected devices. While Google says one balloon can cover an area the size of Rhode Island, the coverage area is really bigger than that because one balloon can send its signal to another balloon, which can then send Internet signals down to the ground.Read More »
Stop the presses: HTTPS-crippling "FREAK" bug affects Windows after all (Dan Goodin/Ars Technica)
Computers running all supported versions of Microsoft Windows are vulnerable to "FREAK," a bug disclosed Monday that for more than a decade has made it possible for attackers to decrypt HTTPS-protected traffic passing between vulnerable end-users and millions of websites . Microsoft confirmed the vulnerability in an advisory published Thursday . A vulnerability-scanning service at FREAKAttack.com , a site that offers information about the bug, confirmed the advisory, showing that the latest version of IE 11 running on a fully patched Windows 7 machine was susceptible. Previously, it was believed that the Windows system was immune to the attacks. FREAK attacks—short for Factoring attack on RSA-EXPORT Keys—are possible when an end-user with a vulnerable device connects to a vulnerable HTTPS-protected website. Vulnerable sites are those configured to use a weak cipher that many presumed had been retired long ago. In analyses immediately following Monday's disclosure of FREAK, it was believed Android devices, iPhones and Macs from Apple, and smartphones from Blackberry were susceptible. The addition of Windows dramatically increases the number of users known to be vulnerable. Attackers who are in a position to monitor traffic passing between vulnerable users and vulnerable servers can inject malicious packets into the flow that will cause the two parties to use a weak 512-bit encryption key while negotiating encrypted Web sessions. Attackers can then collect some of the resulting exchange and use cloud-based computing from Amazon or other services to factor the website's underlying private key. The process requires about seven hours and $100.Read More »
US air traffic control computer system vulnerable to terrorist hackers (David Kravets/Ars Technica)
The US system for guiding airplanes is open to vulnerabilities from outside hackers, the Government Accountability Office said Monday. The weaknesses that threaten the Federal Aviation Administration's ability to ensure the safety of flights include the failure to patch known three-year-old security holes, the transmission and storage of unencrypted passwords, and the continued use of "end-of-life" key servers. The GAO said that deficiencies in the system that monitors some 2,850 flights at a time has positioned the air traffic system into an "increased and unnecessary risk of unauthorized access, use or modification that could disrupt air traffic control operations ." What's more, the report said the FAA "did not always ensure that sensitive data were encrypted when transmitted or stored." That information included stored passwords and "authentication data." Among the findings: While the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has taken steps to protect its air traffic control systems from cyber-based and other threats, significant security control weaknesses remain, threatening the agency's ability to ensure the safe and uninterrupted operation of the national airspace system (NAS). These include weaknesses in controls intended to prevent, limit, and detect unauthorized access to computer resources, such as controls for protecting system boundaries, identifying and authenticating users, authorizing users to access systems, encrypting sensitive data, and auditing and monitoring activity on FAA's systems. Additionally, shortcomings in boundary protection controls between less-secure systems and the operational NAS environment increase the risk from these weaknesses. The flying public's safety is in jeopardy until there's a fix to the system used at some 500 airport control towers, the GAO said . (PDF) "Until FAA effectively implements security controls, establishes stronger agency-wide information security risk management processes ... the weaknesses GAO identified are likely to continue, placing the safe and uninterrupted operation of the nation's air traffic control system at increased and unnecessary risk." The report chided the agency for failing to perform basic functions: Additionally, the agency did not always ensure that security patches were applied in a timely manner to servers and network devices supporting air traffic control systems, or that servers were using software that was up-to-date. For example, certain systems were missing patches dating back more than 3 years. Additionally, certain key servers had reached end-of-life and were no longer supported by the vendor. As a result, FAA is at an increased risk that unpatched vulnerabilities could allow its information and information systems to be compromisedRead More »
The state of Linux gaming in the SteamOS era (Kyle Orland/Ars Technica)
Aurich Lawson For decades after Linux's early '90s debut, even the hardest of hardcore boosters for the open source operating system had to admit that it couldn't really compete in one important area of software: gaming. "Back in around 2010 you only had two choices for gaming on Linux," Che Dean, editor of Linux gaming news site Rootgamer recalls. "Play the few open source titles, Super Tux Kart and so on, or use WINE to play your Windows titles." Ask anyone who was involved in the relatively tiny Linux gaming scene before this decade, and you'll get a similar response. "For a long time, it was just me porting games, and I did my best, but an industry that has an employee pool of one isn't a big industry," said veteran Linux programmer Ryan C. Gordon, who has worked on over 75 Linux gaming ports over the last 15 years. "It was slow for years on end with only a few decent commercial releases becoming available," Gaming on Linux site editor Liam Dawe agreed. Further Reading That began to slowly change around 2010, when The Humble Indie Bundle launched with an insistence that every included game come with a Linux option (thanks in no small part to the fact that Linux players were some of the most generous in the bundle's pay-what-you-want scheme). It also didn't hurt when services like Desura and Ubuntu Software Center appeared around the same time, giving Linux gamers a few user-friendly centralized repositories to purchase and organize their games. But there's one primary reason that Linux gamers can enjoy nearly 1,000 professional, commercially distributed games today , and it goes by the name of Valve. "At the end of 2013, when Valve released the beta of SteamOS everything changed," Dean said. "After years of promoting the various Linux distributions, we had a major gaming company not just porting their games to Linux, but actually creating their own Linux-based operating system. It was an incredibly exciting moment and a turning point for Linux users." Now, more than a year into the SteamOS era (measuring from that beta launch), the nascent Linux gaming community is cautiously optimistic about the promise of a viable PC gaming market that doesn't rely on a Microsoft OSRead More »
Verizon mocks FCC ruling with Morse code response dated 1934, despite using Title II to its benefit (Jon Brodkin/Ars Technica)
Verizon is just so mad at the Federal Communications Commission today that a normal press release wouldn't do. After all, Verizon issues so many press releases denouncing the FCC for trying to regulate telecommunications that today's vote on net neutrality required a special one to make sure it would be remembered. So Verizon wrote it in morse code and set the date as "1934" to make the point that the FCC is taking us backward in time. Verizon sent out the press release in this e-mail: Verizon After some more morse code, Verizon says, "Readers living in the 21st century can read the translated statement here ." That statement is dated February 26, 1934, the same year Congress passed the Communications Act, including the Title II part that the FCC is using to regulate broadband providers. Verizon Of course, this is the same Verizon that in 2012 claimed that net neutrality violates its First and Fifth Amendment rights . That happened after Verizon sued to overturn the FCC's 2010 net neutrality rules. (Verizon won that case, leading directly to today's FCC decision.) Net neutrality "infringes broadband network owners' constitutional rights," Verizon said in its 2012 argument . "It violates the First Amendment by stripping them of control over the transmission of speech on their networks. And it takes network owners' property without compensation by mandating that they turn over those networks for the occupation and use of others at a regulated rate of zero, undermining owners' multi-billion dollar-backed expectations that they would be able to decide how best to employ their networks to serve consumers and deterring network investment. " "Just as a newspaper is entitled to decide which content to publish and where, broadband providers may feature some content over others," Verizon further said.Read More »
W3C finalizes Pointer Events web API spec, but Apple and Google's lack of support is a deal-breaker (Peter Bright/Ars Technica)
The Pointer Events specification , an API for Web developers to handle touch, mouse, and pen inputs in Web applications, has been published as a Recommendation by the World Wide Web Consortium. This is the Web standards group's final, mutually agreed on version of the spec. Pointer Events was first proposed by Microsoft as an alternative to another specification, Touch Events. Touch Events was born from Apple's initial work to touch-enable Safari on the iPhone. W3C moved to standardize it without Apple's involvement, and at one point during Touch Events' development , it looked as if the spec would be covered by Apple-owned patents, with Apple unwilling to offer a royalty free grant for users of the spec. Had this situation continued, it would have precluded W3C from issuing the spec as a recommendation. Pointer Events avoided the patent issues. It was also a more general specification; while Touch Events was designed for touch and touch alone, Pointer Events allowed developers to use similar code to handle touch, stylus/pen, and mouse inputs. Pointer Events also addressed certain problems with Touch Events, such as a 300 millisecond delay before responding to taps in order to disambiguate between single and double taps. While the patent issue was resolved—W3C decided that Apple's patents didn't cover Touch Events anyway—work on Pointer Events continued in parallel, backed not just by Microsoft, but also by Mozilla, jQuery, and at one time, Google. Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer both implement Pointer EventsRead More »
Revenge porn boss wants Google to remove his "identity related" info (David Kravets/Ars Technica)
What do you do if you're a revenge porn site operator and the Federal Trade Commission has barred you from publishing nude images of people without their consent? You demand that Google remove from its search engine links to news accounts about the FTC's action and other related stories, citing "unauthorized use of photos of me and other related information." Craig Brittain—the former operator of revenge porn site IsAnybodyDown.com—is invoking the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) in a bid to remove 23 links in all—an irony-filled DMCA takedown request that Google is ignoring. One of the links renders the FTC's press release in January about its enforcement against Brittain. Another is a link to Ars' story about the FTC's move: " Sleazy 'revenge porn' site is banished to settle federal charges ." In addition to claims that the links contain "unauthorized" information about him, Brittain asserts "unauthorized use of statements and identity related information. Unauthorized copying of excerpts from isanybodydown.com. Using photos which are not 'fair use.'" Further Reading The DMCA requires Internet companies like Google to remove links to infringing content at a rights holder's request or face legal liability. In this instance, fair use and general First Amendment principles are on Google's and the media's side. Brittain's takedown requests likely wouldn't even qualify for removal in Europe under theRead More »

When power gets to the head, tyranny comes naturally. This seems to be case of Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan who has kicked the Central Bank governor Murat Cetinkaya via a Presidential decree.
He has used his powers to do so, and quiet openly. Centinkaya had one more year to finish his term. His seat will now be held by deputy governor Murat Uysal, according to the decree.
Turkey was reeling under inflation for a long time. Under the leadership of Centinkaya, interest rates were aggressively, something that doesn't agree with Erdogan.
In early 2016, the bank's target rate was 7.5%; today, it sits at 24%. This orthodox approach to addressing inflation Erdogan believed leads to inflation.
Erdogan has been seen to have gone by his ways, something that most leaders of other countries wouldn't do, political analysts believe. His behaviour has been termed by the media as "bullying the central bank,antagonizing investors, and consolidating personal power over economic institutions (his son-in-law took over as finance ministerlast year)."
Erdogan has been considered the strong man leader who has beenputting pressure on the central bank to cut interest rates. The central bank had kept rates high since last September to ward off a currency crisis, but the inevitable has finally happened and a shockwave has been felt in the market as the currency plunged byliterally 3 percent.

The first step for us to find the most compatible renter is to advertise the listing to prospective renters moving to Northern Virginia. But the second step is to find the the best-possible renter. Investigating possible tenants is one of the most critical charges of any talented rental management company in 22180.
Our award-winning real estate business look ats the prospective lessee's past behavior. With that in mind, Nesbitt Realty and Management assumes the applicant's future behavior will be the same or similar. The applicant should demonstrate a history of being a trustworthy, top renter and at the same time possessing the financial capacity to handle the rent. Our background checking process is founded on several basic tactics including:
- Application – After the applicant stop bys a investment property, the agent takes an application. The application is accompanied by supporting documentation so that our business can verify and scrutinize all information included on the application. The potential renter pays for the cost of the background check at the time of application.
- Income Verification – Nesbitt Realty checks and confirms job title, salary, job status and prospects for continued employment. Depending upon the prospective renter's debt load, a tenant needs to earn not less than 3 to 4 times the monthly rent in gross income to qualify for rental.
- Tenant Screening – Nesbitt screens tenants with a combination of checking credit history, background, eviction and criminal screening services as well as our own efforts to collect information needed to confirm and process the application.
If accepted, the potential lessee's in-processing includes a lease, lease signing, collecting pro-rated rent, and providing the renter with a copy of any association documents needed for disclosure and instruction on rules and regulations associated with the rental and community.

What if you could make one decision that would reduce the environmental impact of your laboratory, without changing your daily routine? You can, by purchasing green. While there are many changes a person can make to be environmentally responsible, purchasing is an upstream activity that affects various issues down the line, such as energy, waste, and water consumption. Our goal was to change the purchasing habits of University of Washington Laboratories towards buying green alternatives and increase awareness for programs such as USWAP and MyChem, which promote recycling and sharing of products. This project combined investigation of alternative green laboratory products, a survey of current UW lab purchasing practices and communication with UW labs, vendors, and representatives from E-procurement, the university's primary online purchasing site. The result is a compiled list of laboratory green-products that can be widely used and communicated across campus. This list also includes green purchasing tips and available vendor take-back programs to help share best practices. Sustainability and responsible purchasing of green alternatives is a realistic option. Look for the green purchasing list on the E-procurement site!

Fun Facts:
Many vendors that offer sustainable alternatives are contracted with E-procurement, this project incorporated help from Mt. Baker Bio, VWR, etc.
The Life Technologies California facility improved its landfill diversion rate from 30% to 96% in one year using aggressive waste reduction programs.
E-procurement's policy for green purchasing outlines UW's commitment to environmental stewardship by encouraging purchasing of green products.
