GM picked the Los Angeles show today to launch its redesigned GMC Yukon XL and Chevrolet Suburban SUVs — the latest of its GMT-900 full-sized trucks for 2007 to break cover. If the press releases give any indication, the Yukon is the slick, powerful one and the Suburban is its safer than milk counterpart, with a "360-degree perimeter safety system" that includes roof-mounted head curtain side air bags with rollover protection, front-seat safety belt pretensioners and traction control. We love marketing. Click through for more pics.
Press release excerpts:
Yukon XL
Yukon XL and Yukon XL Denali become available in the second quarter of 2006. The XL models have exterior dimensions similar to the regular models, but are about 14 inches (355.6 mm) longer in wheelbase and 20 inches (508 mm) longer in overall length. Yukon XL is available in SLE (cloth trim) and SLT trim (leather appointments), as well as 2WD and 4WD configurations and a heavy-duty model. A third-row seat is standard. A 5.3L V-8 with Active Fuel Management displacement on demand fuel-saving technology is standard. Later in the model year, a new 6.0L all-aluminum V-8 with Active Fuel Management and variable valve timing (VVT) becomes available; a 6.0L V-8 with VVT is offered in heavy-duty models.
The 2007 Suburban is available in the second quarter of 2006. It is offered in LS, LT and LTZ models, with 2WD and 4WD (a Z71 off-road package will be offered later in the model year), as well as 1500 and heavy-duty 2500 series. At the start of production, Suburban 1500 models will come with an efficient 5.3L V-8 with Active Fuel Management displacement on demand fuel-saving technology. Later, a new, all-aluminum 6.0L V-8 with Active Fuel Management displacement on demand and variable valve timing (VVT) will be available. A 6.0L engine with VVT and an iron cylinder block is offered on 2500 models.

The Situation Admits He Has A Drug Problem
Mike has reportedly checked into Cirque Lodge in Utah, admitting to his fans that he has a prescription drug problem and is voluntarily getting treatment.
Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, 29, can't handle his partying ways anymore. The reality star took to Twitter on March 21 to tell his over one million followers that he has an addiction and he's getting help for it.
"I want to set the record straight," the Jersey Shore star says on his website. "I have voluntarily taken steps to get control of a prescription medication problem I had due to exhaustion. I have spent the past several weeks getting treatment for this problem and recuperating from my work and appearance schedule. I appreciate my fans support and love you guys."
TMZ is reporting that Mike has checked into Cirque Lodge in Utah. Meanwhile, MTV announced that there will be a sixth season of Jersey Shore.
Do you think the partying is just too much for the cast?

$PKG_INSTALL_ROOT is the location of the root (/) file system of the machine to which you are adding the package. The location is set to the -R argument of the pkgadd command. For example, if the following command is invoked, then $PKG_INSTALL_ROOT becomes /a during the installation of the package.
# pkgadd -R /a SUNWvxvm
$BASEDIR points to the relocatable base directory into which relocatable package objects are installed. Only relocatable objects are installed here. Nonrelocatable objects (those that have absolute paths in the pkgmap file) are always installed relative to the inactive boot environment, but not relative to the $BASEDIR in effect. If a package has no relocatable objects, then the package is said to be an absolute package (or nonrelocatable), and $BASEDIR is undefined and not available to package procedure scripts.
For example, suppose a package's pkgmap file has two entries:
1 f none sbin/ls 0555 root sys 3541 12322 1002918510 1 f none /sbin/ls2 0555 root sys 3541 12322 2342423332
The pkginfo file has a specification for $BASEDIR:
If this package is installed with the following command, then ls is installed in /a/opt/sbin/ls, but ls2 is installed as /a/sbin/ls2.
# pkgadd -R /a SUNWtest

Oregon Rail Dress
Added Aug 16, 2010
By burdastyle
New York, New Yo...
Today marks a new series of projects in which our members are given a chance to create a BurdaStyle pattern variation and tutorial to be spotlighted on our homepage! Today's project was created by Grosgrain, and if you haven't seen her blog, you should really check it out. Grosgrain used BurdaStyle friend Twinkle by Wenlan's blouse pattern and truly transformed something formal into day wear. You can comment on Grosgrain's blog to WIN this dress!
"With the collar, neck ties and skinny pencil skirt, I thought the end look was a little 1940s." We agree that this frock is a lovely spin off of the 40s, yet the modern sleeve design and silhouette makes this dress a current hit. The bright yellow buttons, accessories and contrasting white and navy fabric lend this dress a retro look. This project translates so well in solid navy & white fabric with contrasting yellow buttons— it would be cool in a print as well.
Material Notes
The original Twinkle blouse featured on BurdaStyle was made in silk chiffon and crepe. Today's project is much easier to work with in cotton = much more welcoming to beginners:
Self: 2 yards (1.8 m.), 1/2 (.45 m.) yard of piping, 11 plastic yellow buttons

When I click on 'Instructions' I get a 500 Error (Internal Server Issue)… Are there instructions for this variation?
Aug 27, 2010, 04.26 PMby thestoryofkat
great job, it's such a lovely dress! i notice the yoke/bib is a bit more narrow at the shoulders here than so many of the versions users have made with the original blouse pattern. Is there an option/explanation in the pattern for this or is it just varied results of varied seamstresses? i really prefer the more narrow look but am reluctant to buy the pattern if that's not how it actually is.

As always, Grosgrain, I love the look you put together. To Burdastyle: unfortunately, I won't be making it – at $8.00 for the pattern – it's a little pricey for me.
Aug 17, 2010, 08.38 PMby Pamela Snook
Love the dress and love the denim navy blue looks. I think I would like the dress and a cross country train ride, too. I hope the denim, the navy blue, and the dresses stay in vogue for a very long time.

I think they will— they are totally classic colors which outlast fleeting trends. You never can really pinpoint which era these classic color combos come from, yet you know they work wonders together.

I apologize you can't see the images. I highly recommend to anyone who wants a better internet experience to browse in Firefox or Safari— it makes a world of difference. Good luck!
Madscouser— you've misunderstood me, I am not patronising you at all, I was offering a solution that has helped a lot of others be able to see images on our site. We are trying to solve this issue with our programmers while offering any more suggestions we've got.

Falcone Settling With SEC, Private Equity Next?
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
Hedge fund manager Philip Falcone would be banned from serving as an investment advisor for two years, pending final approval of a Securities and Exchange Commission agreement.
The Wall Street Journalreports that Falcone's firm, Harbinger Capital Partners, reversed its stance and agreed to pay $18 million to the SEC. But it didn't admit or deny allegations of fraud. Shares of Harbinger Group (HRG) fell nearly 1% Thursday. Falcone didn't respond to WSJ requests for comment. The Journal writes,
"... the SEC filed civil charges accusing Mr. Falcone of putting his own interests, including maintaining a "lavish lifestyle," ahead of those of Harbinger investors. The agency also accused Mr. Falcone and Harbinger of misleading investors and an outside law firm when Mr. Falcone took out a $113.2 million loan in 2009 from a Harbinger fund to pay his personal taxes, even as other investors in the fund were prevented from pulling their money. The SEC also alleged Mr. Falcone and Harbinger favored some large investors in return for their supporting a restructuring plan that would limit other investors' ability to pull out their money."
So what's next? SEC commissioners must vote on the agreement, which also needs court approval. Falcone can remain chief executive and chairman of Harbinger Group. Harbinger Group said in a filing that he cannot, for two years, act or be an "associated person of any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal-securities dealer, municipal adviser, transfer agent, or nationally recognized statistical rating organization." Clarification: Falcone can continue as general partner at Harbinger Capital, his hedge fund, within settlement terms. The settlement calls for expeditious satisfaction of redemption requests and bans raising new capital or making capital calls from existing investors.
Harbinger has had difficulty meeting investor redemptions, with billions tied up in the bankrupt LightSquared wireless venture. Falcone, the Journal writes,
"has said he likes the idea of investing with a permanent pool of money that isn't subject to requests for withdrawals by investors, as hedge funds are. Recently, he has been transitioning to more of a private-equity style of investment with acquisitions such as LightSquared Inc., the wireless-networking venture that has filed for bankruptcy."

Rubio on Earth's age: 'I'm not a scientist, man'
In August 2011, as his presidential campaign was just getting underway, Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) fielded an interesting question from a young boy in New Hampshire: "How old do you think the Earth is?" Given Perry's general aversion to science, it was hardly an unreasonable thing to ask.
"I don't have any idea," the governor replied. "I know it's pretty old. So, it goes back a long, long way." It was unclear whether Perry considers 6,000 years "pretty old."
Fifteen months later, another high-profile, far-right politician was asked the identical question, and once again the answer was pretty interesting. In this case, it was GQ's Michael Hainey who asked Sen. Marco Rubio (R), "How old do you think the Earth is?" Here's how the senator responded:
"I'm not a scientist, man. I can tell you what recorded history says, I can tell you what the Bible says, but I think that's a dispute amongst theologians and I think it has nothing to do with the gross domestic product or economic growth of the United States. I think the age of the universe has zero to do with how our economy is going to grow. I'm not a scientist. I don't think I'm qualified to answer a question like that.
"At the end of the day, I think there are multiple theories out there on how the universe was created and I think this is a country where people should have the opportunity to teach them all. I think parents should be able to teach their kids what their faith says, what science says. Whether the Earth was created in 7 days, or 7 actual eras, I'm not sure we'll ever be able to answer that. It's one of the great mysteries."
I think I like Perry's answer better.
To be sure, I don't seriously expect Rubio to immediately cite the commonly accepted scientific figure – the planet is 4.54 billion years old – from memory. Sure, Rubio is a member of the Senate Science Committee, and is on the subcommittee that deals specifically with science and space, but let's give him the benefit of the doubt and assume the age of the Earth is one of those details that doesn't come up often.
But it was the rest of Rubio's answer that gives me pause.
The point of the question, of course, is to understand whether Rubio is a creationist who rejects the entirety of the scientific canon and believes the planet is only 6,000 years old. As the senator's national ambitions take shape, he'll probably need to answer the question directly at some point.
But note the way in which Rubio thinks the issue through – he's "not a scientist"; theologians disagree; so he's not "qualified" to answer. The senator is comfortable, though, concluding that the age of the planet is "one of the great mysteries."
Except, of course, it's not. A "dispute amongst theologians" or not, science offers extremely reliable information that answers the question quite well.
I'll gladly concede that when it comes to politicians and candidates for high office, there are pressing policy issues that matter far more than the age of Earth. But the reason to take note of exchanges like these is that they offer insights as to how politicians evaluate information and process facts.
Does it matter that Marco Rubio doesn't know the planet is 4.54 billion years old? No. But it does matter whether the senator values science, whether he takes the notion of epistemology seriously, and whether he reconsiders old assumptions based on new information.

WASHINGTON, March 6 (UPI) -- A consulting firm for business and the government sectors is being formed by former U.S. government cybersecurity experts.
The strategic and advisory services organization will be called by Ridge Schmidt Cyber LLC after founders: Tom Ridge, the first U.S. secretary of Homeland Security, and Howard A. Schmidt, former cybersecurity adviser to U.S. President Barack Obama and President George W. Bush.
"Many corporate leaders want to be better prepared for the challenges of cyberspace," said Ridge, who along with Schmidt will serve as partner of Ridge Schmidt Cyber.
"Cyberattacks and cybercrime have a real -- not virtual -- impact on operations and the bottom line.
"The effects are as far reaching, disruptive and consequential as physical attacks, and can make or break organizations that are not sufficiently prepared."
Added Schmidt: "Chief executive officers who are engaged on matters of cybersecurity put their companies at a competitive advantage.
"Our goal is to help leaders improve their cyber-resiliency so attacks don't impact their systems or their market positions."
Company services will include the design of cybersecurity strategy and architecture, development of policies and procedures.

Lochinvar® Scores a Hat-Trick with Third Install at ESPN Headquarters
Lochinvar® Scores a Hat-Trick with Third Install at ESPN Headquarters
Following successful installations of Lochinvar's SYNC® and KNIGHT® XL Boilers at ESPN's Connecticut headquarters, a new opportunity for high-efficiency commercial boilers arose with the retrofit of the company's Digital Center. This time, it was the CREST® Condensing Boiler that was selected for the job. CREST is Lochinvar's latest and largest addition to its condensing boiler family, offering models up to 5 million Btu/hr and thermal efficiencies as high as 99 percent.
"The Digital Center is a key facility in ESPN's broadcast operations," notes Steve Darr, P.E., a project engineer at global engineering firm HLW, which did the design work on the Digital Center retrofit. "They have a lot of plus-one systems that have the capacity to do more and have additional capacity on standby. The systems are always at 100%. That presents concerns about energy use."
For the Digital Center job, Darr selected three 3.5 million Btu/hr CREST Boilers from Lochinvar (FBN3500). One of the features that led Darr to choose CREST for the job was the built-in cascading sequencer offered with its SMART TOUCH control. The SMART TOUCH operating system made installation and setup an easy process. Darr worked with Eric Montas and Greg Sinay of FIA, Inc., Lochinvar's New England manufacturers' representative, and the installing contractor for support as needed.
The new CREST boilers provide great flexibility for the facility. "They are very efficient and can operate at a wide range of temperatures," Darr says. "They definitely have operating advantages. There are times throughout the year when the water delivery temperature will be low, and they can take advantage of the condensing feature. And even when they are running at hotter temperatures such as 180° F water, they will still have a higher efficiency than a standard boiler."

Summary of Federal Laws
The Controlled Substances Act of 1970
Compliance Partners
|Associate Provost for Research
(Title II of The Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act of 1970) 21 USC § 801 et seq.;21 CFR Part 1300 to end
This law brings together a number of laws regulating the manufacture and distribution of narcotics, stimulants, depressants, hallucinogens, anabolic steroids, and chemicals used in the illicit production of controlled substances. All substances are placed in one of five schedules, based on medicinal value, harmfulness, and potential for abuse or addiction, with Schedule 1 reserved for the most dangerous drugs that have no recognized medical use.
Use of controlled substances for the purpose of research is, under federal law, subject to extensive licensing, registration, storage, security, use, and disposal requirements. Researchers are also subject to state registration and other regulatory requirements.
21 CFR § 1301.11 states the requirements for who must register under the law. The list includes every person who manufactures, distributes, dispenses, imports, or exports any controlled substances or who proposes to engage in the manufacture, distribution, dispensing, importation or exportation of a controlled substance. See 21 U.S.C. § 802 and 21 CFR § 1300.01 for definitions relating to controlled substances. The term "practitioner" includes scientific investigators.
See 21 CFR § 1301.13, for specific requirements setting forth the schedules of payment and registration. The registrant will be assigned to one of twelve groups (corresponding to months of the year). If the registrant is assigned to a group whose registration has an expiration date less than three months from the date of registration, then the registration for the new registrant will not expire until one year from that given date, in all other cases, the registration expires on the given expiration date. The form used for researchers is Form 225, and for renewal (annual) Form 225a. When applying for registration to use Schedule I drugs, three copies of the research protocol must be included along with the application form. See 21 CFR § 1301.18.
Storage and Security Controls
The security requirements are set forth in 21 CFR § 1301.72-76. Schedule I and II drugs must be stored separately from other drugs, in an approved safe. Specifications for the safe are set forth in the regulations, and the Drug Enforcement Administration Field Office may also be called upon to review proposed security systems. Schedule III-V must also be kept under lock and key, although the choices for what type safe or vault or cage must be used are broader than the rules for Schedule I and II drugs.
See 21 CFR 1304.01 et seq. for the sections on records and reports of registrants. Each registrant, unless specifically exempted by the code, must keep records to account for controlled substances used in any activity. The records must be kept for two years from the date of the inventory or records.
Inventories of dispensers and researchers (21 CFR 1304.11(e) (3)) An initial inventory of all controlled substances is required on the date the registrant first undertakes dispensing, manufacturing, or distributing the controlled substance. After the initial inventory, a new inventory must be taken at least every two years. The inventory must be a complete and accurate record of all controlled substances, and maintained in a written, typewritten, or printed form at the registered location. The following information must be included:
- The name of the substance;
- Each finished form of the substance (e.g. 10 milligram tablet);
- The number of units or volume of each finished form in each commercial container; and
The number of commercial containers of each such finished form.
For damaged, defective, or impure substances awaiting disposal, or held for quality control or for extemporaneous compoundings, the inventory shall include:
- The name of the substance;
- The total quantity of the substance to the nearest metric unit weight or the total number of units of finished form; and
- The reason for the substance being maintained by the registrant and whether the substance is capable of use in the manufacture of any controlled substance in finished form.
If the substance is in a container which has been opened, and the substance is a Schedule I or II substance, the inventory should include an exact count or measure of the contents, or, if the substance is in Schedules III-V, an estimated count of the contents, unless the container holds more than 1,000 tablets or capsules, in which case an exact count is required.
Continuing Records: 21 CFR § 1304.22 ( c) covers records for dispensers and researchers:
- The name of the substance;
- Each finished form and the number of units or volume of finished form in each commercial container;
- The number of units of finished forms and/or commercial containers acquired from other persons, including the date and number of units and/or commercial containers in each acquisition to inventory and the name, address and registration # of the person from whom the units were acquired;
- The number of commercial containers distributed to other persons, including the date of and number of containers in each reduction from inventory, and the name, address, and registration number of the person to whom the containers were distributed; and
- The number of units of finished forms and/or commercial containers distributed or disposed of in any other manner by the registrant (e.g., by distribution of complimentary samples or by destruction), including the date and manner of distribution or disposal, the name, address, and registration number of the person to whom distributed, and the quantity in finished form distributed or disposed.
In addition, records shall be maintained of the number of units or volume of such finished form dispensed, including the name and address of the person (or research subject, e.g. mouse #1) to whom it was dispensed, the date of dispensing, the number of units or volume dispensed, and the written or typewritten name or initials of the individual who dispensed or administered the substance on behalf of the dispenser.
21 CFR § 1304.23 lists in detail what records must by kept by chemical analysts.
See 21 CFR 1304.33 for specific reporting obligations. In general, reporting obligations in this part are limited to those registered to manufacture and distribute controlled substances. Import/export reporting obligations are in another part of the Code.
21 CFR § 1307.21 sets forth the procedure that is required under federal law for disposition of controlled substances. The registrant must list the controlled substance or substances which he/she desires to dispose of on DEA Form 41, and submit three copies of that form to the Special Agent in Charge in his/her area. The Special Agent will then give instructions on how to dispose of the substance. Controlled substances may only be used for duly authorized purposes, and unauthorized transfer of the substances is prohibited under the law.
Registrants may also transfer controlled substances to a DEA registered Reverse Distributor.
Registrants may also transfer controlled substances to a DEA registered Reverse Distributor.
Employee responsibility to report drug diversion
It is the position of DEA that an employee who has knowledge of drug diversion from his employer by a fellow employee has an obligation to report such information to a responsible security official of the employer. See 21 CFR §1301.91
Background Checks
While employee background checks on employees with access to controlled substances are recommended, they are not required. See 21 CFR §1301.90 et seq. for recommended screening procedures and specific questions to be asked. Note that when someone registers the same questions contained in the regulations that are suggested as part of the background check are asked on the registration application that is submitted to the DEA.
Information about registration (including forms) and a complete list of controlled substances, along with a wealth of useful information is on the Drug Enforcement Administration's home page at http://www.deadiversion.usdoj.gov/
DOJ Security Outline of the Controlled Substances Act of 1970.
See also Yale University's Policy on the Use of Controlled Substances in Research Laboratories . This is an excellent policy that was prepared by the Offices of General Counsel and Environmental Health and Safety at Yale.

OAKLAND — Getting highly addictive drugs came just as easily as grabbing breakfast and a cup of coffee for addicts who met an East Bay doctor at a number of restaurants to get illicit prescriptions, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.
Berkeley resident Toni Daniels, 62, was indicted Friday on charges of conspiracy to commit health care fraud, conspiracy to distribute and dispense controlled substances, distribution of controlled substances and willful failure to file a tax return, U.S. Attorney Melinda Haag said in an indictment released Friday.
According to the indictment, from October 2010 through April 2011, Daniels, a self-employed doctor, met with customers at various restaurants in and around Oakland, including Burger King, House of Chicken and Waffles, Dick's Donuts, and Starbucks.
During the meetings, Daniels allegedly sold prescriptions for oxycodone, hydrocodone and other controlled substances, in exchange for cash payments. Daniels also allegedly knew many of her customers used Medicare, Medi-Cal and other private health insurance plans that covered the cost of medications she prescribed.
As a result, between October 2010 and April 2011, Medicare and Medi-Cal paid over $64,000 in false and fraudulent claims for drugs prescribed by Daniels. Daniels made nearly $144,000 during 2010 and failed to file an income tax return for that year, according to the indictment.
Daniels was arrested Thursday night and appeared Friday morning in court. She is next scheduled in court at 9:30 a.m. on April 14. She faces a sentence of up to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $1 million for the controlled substances charge if convicted, and lesser sentences for the other charges.

If your life won't be complete until you own the fastest production Volvo ever, raise your hands now. There are just 120 of the Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar super Volvos coming to this country in June, and they look to be worth standing in line for.
We just drove the 2015 Volvo V60 and found it to be a compelling package. Add more power and of course it'll be even more appealing. The important points of the Polestars include the 3.0-liter turbo six that now pumps out 345 horses, 20 more than the current top-tree T6 R-Design. It also packs 369 lb.-ft. of torque, which is why the Polestars get 14.6-inch ventilated front discs with six-piston Brembo calipers, and 11.8 inch ventilated discs at the rear, to go around the 20-inch wheels.
The big brakes and high-performance shocks will be good, because Volvo says the Polestars get to 60 in 4.7 seconds. A sub-5-second 0-60 time from a gorgeous blue wagon? Who needs to save for college, anyway?
Oh, and if for whatever godawful reason you're not in love with the Rebel Blue paint, it's also going to be available in Black Sapphire Metallic.

Where Tunisia is now: exhilarating limbo
Ben Ali has fallen. An Arab dictator of 24 years has turned out to be removable — not by a relative, former ally or military chief, but by a popular insurrection. This is historic first for the entire region and I will come back to it tomorrow.
In the meantime, though, we should not assume that Tunisia has become an instant democracy. The announcement today that Prime Minister Ghanouchi was assuming the presidency has yet to be accepted. Rioting and looting are continuing in the streets of major Tunisian cities, sometimes targeting the homes and businesses of regime cronies, but also of ordinary citizens. Some suspect police desertors to be looting. The situation is chaotic and the army is showing signs of wanting to impose order.
With no clear leadership with the moral authority to get people to go back to their homes, it may be days before the situation resolves itself. What interim president Ghanouchi does tomorrow in his meeting with the opposition — whose very definition will be controversial, notably over whether En-Nahda's Islamists could become part of an interim coalition government — will be crucial. Right now, there does not seem to be any indication that Tunisians are accepting any government as legitimate. Ghanouchi will have to either move quickly to build a credible alliance (here the international community may have a role in confering legitimacy) or step aside for someone who can.
The question of what role there should be for longtime regime cronies such as Mr Ghanouchi is crucial. On the one hand he and others like Foreign Minister Kamel Morjane represent known quantities. They can be seen as managers that might not play a role in future governments. Yet public opinion is now divided on this, weary that if they remain one of the main grievances against the Ben Ali regime — its cronyism and corruption — will not be addressed. Because the Ben Ali network was in business with everyone, this is difficult: few are entirely innocent, especially among the officials who have the capacity to run government in the short-term.
Another alternative, particularly if violence endures, is for the army to take over. It already seems to be moving to impose order, and may enjoy some of the moral authority to end the violence if the pictures of people kissing soldiers on the streets are anything to go by. But that would also alienate some of the protest movement.
The next 24 hours may be as crucial as the preceding 24. What Tunisia needs is a transitional government able to make the streets safe and inspire confidence that the country will be embarking on a genuine democratic transition, not just trading one dictator for another.

Upon deciding to sell your property, you will need to ensure that you have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) in place before you actively market your home.
An EPC is legally required documentation that reports on the energy efficiency of the property you are selling, rating your property's energy effectiveness on a scale on A to G. Your EPC must be in place before your put you property on the market, as potential buyers will need to see it at the earliest opportunity. Failure to comply with EPC legislation could result in a fine.
Our fully trained energy assessors will carry out an inspection on your property. They will carefully assess certain elements of your property, such as insulation, glazing materials, the size of the property, construction materials and your property's heating solution.
Your final assessment will provide the basis of your EPC, providing you with information about energy efficiency on a scale from A to G. Your EPC will also offers suggestions on how to improve your property's energy efficiency, helping you to lower your future energy bills and reduce the impact of emissions.
A good energy rating can be a positive marketing tool, showing potential purchasers that your property is economical and eco-friendly. Having an EPC in place, even if you aren't selling, can help you to take valuable action and reduce your energy bills.
Our Energy Assessors are a trusted provider of EPCs nationwide and deliver timely, accurate reports.

For the past six years, Dexter fans have been waiting with anticipation for the moment when Dexter's foul-mouthed sister, Deb, would finally bear witness to his Dark Passenger. Thanks to the Dexter season 6 finale, that moment has arrived.
But what happens next in Dexter season 7? How will the series continue with Deb knowing Dexter's secret?
As we've previously reported, Dexter has been renewed for seasons 7 and 8 already, with the latter serving as the series' finale season. Accompanying the renewal announcement, series producers revealed that they would be initiating a story-arc in season 6 that would last until the end of the series.
Now that we know what that story-arc is, let's find out what they plan on doing with it.
Speaking with TV Guide, Dexter executive producer Scott Buck reveals what's going to happen with Deb's newfound knowledge; how Deb and Dexter's relationship (not the creepy sex part) will be impacted; what Dexter is going to do now that his secret is out; what's going on with weirdo Louis; and whether or not Dexter needs to die at the end of the series.
On Deb finding out Dexter's secret:
We always imagined that Deb finding out would be part of the end game, so we always sort of delayed it. When we came in this year, David Nevins [said], 'Let's shake things up. We don't have to play it safe. We can think a little bit differently this year.' We decided it was finally time to deal with this head-on. There's still plenty of drama to come after this, but we know we have two seasons left to do and there's more than enough for us to deal with in the next two years just dealing with this one particular issue.
On what will happen in Dexter season 7:
One of Dexter's hallmarks is that no one really knows who he is, and now Deb at least has a little peek behind the curtain. How much she actually knows and figures out will all be part of the drama of next season, but it's certainly going to affect our story in a very big way.
I don't think we'll toy with the audience. She sees what she sees and we all know exactly what she's seeing, but how much does that really say about Dexter and what does Deb already know about him? This is her brother, who she's known her whole life. To walk into a situation like this, you're not going to immediately think, 'Oh, my brother is a serial killer.' You're going to think, 'Oh, my brother is killing DDK. This is crazy and insane.' She's taken the first peek behind the curtain, but it's not necessarily daylight just yet.
On whether or not serial killer fanatic Louis will be the villain next season:
Louis is something we don't quite know what to make of because he's something that has not appeared on Dexter before. It's a different kind of character and it will be fun to explore exactly who he is and what he's doing. I certainly like Louis, but he's obviously got some issues to deal with. He seems to be a troubled individual, and how that will work out in terms of Dexter will be part of the fun of next season, but he will not be our big bad.

Litigation Release No. 21994 / June 8, 2011
SEC v. Michael E. Kelly, et al., Case No. 1:07-CV-4979 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois
Court Enters Final Judgment against Coppell, Texas Resident Mark G. Meyer and his Company Mark Meyer & Associates, Inc.
The Securities and Exchange Commission announced today that on June 7, 2011, Judge Elaine Bucklo of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois entered a final judgment against Mark G. Meyer, of Coppell, Texas, and Mark Meyer & Associates, Inc. (MMAI), Meyer's business. The final judgment: (1) enjoined Meyer and MMAI from violating Sections 5(a), 5(c) and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, Sections 10(b) and 15(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rules 10b-5 and 10b-10 promulgated thereunder, and enjoined Meyer from aiding and abetting violations of Rule 10b-10 of the Exchange Act; (2) ordered Meyer and MMAI to pay disgorgement in the amount of $1,162,729.13 plus prejudgment interest of $565,204.12, for a total of $1,727,933.25; and (3) ordered Meyer to pay a civil penalty in the amount of $120,000, and MMAI to pay a civil penalty in the amount of $600,000.
The SEC's complaint in this matter charges that Michael E. Kelly and 25 other defendants, including Meyer and MMAI, participated in a massive fraud on U.S. investors that involved the offer and sale of securities in the form of Universal Leases. Universal Lease investments were structured as timeshares in several hotels in Cancun, Mexico, coupled with a pre-arranged rental agreement that promised investors a high, fixed rate of return. The SEC's complaint alleges that from 1999 until 2005, Kelly and others, including Meyer and MMAI, raised at least $428 million through the Universal Lease scheme from investors throughout the United States, with more than $136 million of the funds invested coming from IRA accounts. The SEC further alleges that a nationwide network of unregistered salespeople who sold the Universal Leases, including Meyer and MMAI, collected undisclosed commissions totaling more than $72 million. The SEC also alleges that Kelly and others ran the scheme from Cancun, Mexico, through a number of foreign entities in Mexico and Panama. According to the SEC's complaint, Kelly and others told investors that Universal Leases would generate guaranteed income through the leasing of investor timeshares by a large, independent leasing agent. In fact, the complaint alleges, the leasing agent was a small Panamanian travel agency controlled by Kelly, and for most of the scheme, its payments to investors came from accounts funded by money raised from new investors. Further, the complaint alleges that Kelly and the other defendants, including Meyer and MMAI, failed to disclose key facts about the Universal Lease investment, including the risks of the investment and that Kelly was paying commissions as high as 27% to the selling brokers. The SEC's action against the remaining defendants is pending.

Tell the UK: Stop the war on journalists
It's outrageous and profoundly chilling. British authorities detained the partner of Glenn Greenwald, the journalist who broke the NSA spying scandal by publishing documents from the whistleblower Edward Snowden in the UK's Guardian newspaper.
David Miranda was flying to the home he shares in Brazil with journalist Glenn Greenwald after visiting Laura Poitras in Berlin. Poitras, an American filmmaker, has been working with Greenwald to produce reporting on the NSA's secret domestic spying programs. He was carrying flash drives containing documents that were part of the investigative reporting by Greenwald and Poitras.1
Normally British authorities need a probable cause to detain someone for hours at Heathrow airport in London, deny them access to an attorney and confiscate their belongings. But not if they say you are suspected of being involved in terrorism.
That's just what happened to Miranda. He was detained under Schedule 7 of the British Terrorism Act and held for nearly nine hours -- the maximum allowed without levying charges. When anti-terrorism powers are invoked, Schedule 7 allows British authorities to stop and search anyone without warrant or reasonable suspicion. Miranda was eventually released but his cellphone, flash drives and computers were confiscated.
Tell the UK: Journalists are not terrorists. Detaining their family members is unacceptable.
Said Greenwald in reaction, "This is obviously a rather profound escalation of their attacks on the news-gathering process and journalism. It's bad enough to prosecute and imprison sources. It's worse still to imprison journalists who report the truth. But to start detaining the family members and loved ones of journalists is simply despotic."2
The New York Times reports that Miranda was carrying as of yet unpublished documents from the Snowden trove of NSA evidence from Poitras back to Greenwald. He was clearly not targeted because he was a suspected terrorist -- but rather because he was linked to investigative journalists working to expose the unconstitutional spying programs at NSA. But he was detained under a law intended to stop terrorism -- a law that permits authorities to deny him access to a lawyer and take his possessions without a court order.
In the wake of the incident, Amnesty International charged, "It is utterly improbable that David Michael Miranda, a Brazilian national transiting through London, was detained at random, given the role his partner has played in revealing the truth about the unlawful nature of NSA surveillance… The only possible intent behind this detention was to harass him and his partner, Guardian journalist Glenn Greenwald, for his role in analyzing the data released by Edward Snowden."3
Tell the UK: Journalists are not terrorists. Stop the war on journalists.
This is not an isolated incident. There is escalating war on journalists and whistleblowers in the U.S. who are increasingly threatened with prosecution by the current administration for investigating the executive branch. 4 And now the British authorities are taking a leading role by using anti-terror laws to suppress the exercise of a free press.
The uncovering of a far-reaching domestic spy operation only underscores the need for a strong and independent press to help expose abuses of power at the highest levels of our government and give the public the information we need to hold our government accountable to the Constitution.
It should never be allowed in a democracy to use the security apparatus to intimidate and harass a journalist investigating government abuse. And the UK's targeting of a journalist's spouse under the guise of an anti-terrorism investigation is clearly an escalation of the security state's war on journalism.
Americans need to send a direct message to British officials who may be acting in coordination with U.S. military and intelligence agencies that this is unacceptable. We'll deliver your signatures directly to Sir Peter Westmacott, the British Ambassador to the U.S., Philip Barton, Deputy Head of Mission to the U.S., and Major General Buster Howes, the Defence Attache to the U.S. at the British embassy in Washington, DC.
Thank you for standing up for a free and independent press.

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Education will not accept any new Carol M. White Physical Education Program (PEP) applications this year, according to the U.S. Department of Education.
"Because many applications submitted and reviewed as part of the fiscal year (FY) 2006 competition for new awards under the Carol M. White Physical Education Program received high scores but were not able to be funded in FY 2006, we have decided to use that existing slate to make new awards in FY 2007 for this program," according to a statement on the department's Web site. "This means that no new applications for this program will be solicited in FY 2007."
The U.S. Department of Education plans to announce the 2007 grant awards in late spring or early summer.
Since Congress has not finished action on the 2007 appropriation for the program, the department could not estimate the number of awards expected to be given this year, according to the department's statement.

Iraq has exported crude oil earning more than 29 billion dollars, representing more than 1.8 billion barrels, since the start of the Oil-for-Food program at the end of 1996, the United Nations said.
"Since the inception of the program on December 10th 1996, Iraq has exported nearly 1.845 billion barrels with a value of 29.36 billion dollars," the UN office in Baghdad said.
"During the period June 10th to 16th Iraq exported 13.9 million barrels of oil for revenue estimated around 342 million dollars," it added, referring to the start of phase eight of the program, which is aimed at easing the effects of the embargo imposed on Iraq since 1990.
It allows the country to sell crude oil to buy food, medicines and essential items under strict UN control.
Iraqi foreign minister Mohamed Said Sahhaf said the country has accepted the latest renewal of the six-month UN Oil-for-Food program, according to an Iraqi newspaper Tuesday.
"The renewal of the program on each occasion is a matter of routine which is accepted by both sides (Iraq and the UN), given that we have been subjected to an embargo" since 1990, said Sahhaf, according to the Iraqi weekly al-Rafidain.
"When the eighth stage of the program takes effect, the Iraqi government will seek to use the Iraqi funds (resulting from sales of crude), which are not a gift, to answer the needs of the population in various areas," the Iraqi minister added.
It is the first time Iraq has announced its acceptance of the extension of the humanitarian program since it was renewed by the UN June 8th.
Iraqi oil minister Amer Rashid recently said the country's oil production was now at 3.1 million barrels a day, and he hoped it would reach 3.3 million by the end of the year - UNITED NATIONS (AFP)

GOP: Don't mess with filibuster
A partisan war is brewing that could bring the government to a screeching halt as early as January — and no, it's not over the fiscal cliff.
It's all about the filibuster.
Story Continued Below
Democrats are threatening to change filibuster rules, in what will surely prompt a furious GOP revolt that could make those rare moments of bipartisan consensus even harder to come by during the next Congress.
( Also on POLITICO: Graham: I would violate Norquist's pledge)
Here's what Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is considering: banning filibusters used to prevent debate from even starting and House-Senate conference committees from ever meeting. He also may make filibusters become actual filibusters — to force senators to carry out the nonstop, talkathon sessions.
Republicans are threatening even greater retaliation if Reid uses a move rarely used by Senate majorities: changing the chamber's precedent by 51 votes, rather than the usual 67 votes it takes to overhaul the rules.
"I think the backlash will be severe," Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.), the conservative firebrand, said sternly. "If you take away minority rights, which is what you're doing because you're an ineffective leader, you'll destroy the place. And if you destroy the place, we'll do what we have to do to fight back."
"It will shut down the Senate," the incoming Senate GOP whip, Texas Sen. John Cornyn, told POLITICO. "It's such an abuse of power."
( Also on POLITICO: McCain on abortion: GOP should leave issue alone)
The push will happen at the start of the new Congress, when Reid will unveil a rules package certain to have some changes to the filibuster. The exact contents of that package have yet to be finalized, as is the decision on whether to invoke the so-called nuclear option — 51 votes — to push it through. But Democratic senators are urging Reid to take steps ranging from the most draconian one of virtually eliminating the filibuster to more piecemeal changes designed to discourage the use of the stalling tactic.
What Reid appears most likely to do is push for an end to the filibuster on so-called motions to proceed, or the beginning of a debate on bills or nominations. If Reid goes this route, senators could still filibuster virtually any other aspect of Senate business, including any movement to end debate and call for a final vote on a bill.
And Reid is strongly considering pushing for other filibuster changes, too — most notably requiring senators to actually go to the floor and carry out an endless talking session, rather than simply threaten them as they do now. Reminiscent of the 1939 movie classic "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington," the idea has picked up steam in liberal circles — and its intent is to discourage senators from filibustering, though it would fundamentally change the very nature of the modern Senate.
( PHOTOS: Fiscal cliff's key players)
"We cannot allow the Senate to be dysfunctional by the use of filibusters," said Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), Reid's No. 2. "We've had over 300 filibusters in the last six years — it's unprecedented. What we're talking about is very basic — you want to start a filibuster, you want to stop the business of the Senate, by goodness' sake, park your fanny on the floor of the Senate and speak. If you want to go to dinner and go home over the weekend, be prepared, the Senate is moving forward."
