The Real Impact of Digitization and Artificial Intelligence on Staffing - Panel
Back Bay C
We're well beyond asking the question, "will artificial intelligence have an impact on staffing?" Of course it will. Automation - the foundation of basic precursor to AI - is ubiquitous, and the promise of natural language processing, the prolific use of chatbots in candidate engagement, and the rise of intelligent voice-activated assistants cast a wide shadow on the human workforce industry. But where does a machine's potential end and a human's potential really begin? And what are the bottom-line impacts to your business when artificial intelligence ceases to exist in the future and starts affecting your operations today?

Lesson Eight
Adjective Clauses
adjective clause is a clause that describes a word or a group
of words in another clause. Adjective clauses are often part
of a complex sentence.
Adjective clauses use that,
who, whom,
and which to begin the clause:
She's the person who
gave me the idea.
She's the person that
gave me the idea.
In both sentences, the
person is described by...
She gave me the idea.
...but use that or who in
place of "she."
Here are some examples:
This student who comes from Japan is a very nice person.
The highway that
George travels on every day is usually very crowded
during rush hour.
George is a man who
likes to eat a lot of watermelon.
(If you like this video, you can find more about adjective clauses here.)
To practice the creation of a sentence with an adjective
clause, combine these pairs of sentences:
The teacher who found gum under the
desk was not happy.
Now you practice. I recommend that you write your answers
on a piece of paper. Don't look at the answers below until you have
finished trying to put these together.

Time is passing. There is only now and now and now. With young children it can be easy to daydream through the motions: the feeding, the dressing, the herding. I've been reading Buddhism for Mothers of Schoolchildren and have been reminded yet again of "and this." I find myself quoting as I pack the school lunches, as I wipe the daily grit from our old table, as I fold (or not fold) the washing, as I pull a tearful little face to my chest after a fall: And this. And this. And this. There is only ever this. At first I wondered if it only served to remind me of the monotony and take me, unwillingly, away from my airy thoughts, but with practice I have seen it bring me back into the moment, to ground me.
Over Winter I have been immersed in thought, in yoga study, in reading, in thinking. Perhaps this is nothing new (for me) but with the addition of yoga I have felt growth within myself that has surpassed all other things.
As I type, the littlest wanders over with a shell. I hold it to her ear. "Listen," I say, "can you hear the sea?"
And this.
I sip my coffee.
And this.
Over the weekend we went to Apollo Bay and I attended a whole day workshop with Melbourne writer, Arnold Zable. The parallels between yoga and writing were illuminated as I listened to his words: "To be a writer, you have to be here, you have to be mindful, grounded. You have to witness." Because if you aren't there to witness something, to witness it deeply and fully, then to capture that moment in words later is going to leave you unreliable; the moment dulled through the fog of your inattention.
So go out and allow yourself to see. Notice the way the morning light hits the edges of a plant in your window. See the wisp of hair on your child's forehead and know its habit to swing this way, or that. Feel the crackle of eucalyptus leaves beneath your feet, the solidity of your legs, your body moving through air – feel it as though you are moving through water, or soup. Step outside in the fading light and smell your neighbour's open fire, smell the chill of the evening, the dampness of the soil.
And lastly, this: Xavier Rudd singing out from my computer speakers: Cherish this moment. Cherish this breath.

Goldman Sacs And JP Morgan Chase Finally Concede To Crypto-Currencies (#GotBitcoin?)
JPMorgan CEO Dimon Says Crypto Companies 'Want To Eat Our Lunch' Goldman Sacs And JP Morgan Chase Finally Concede To Crypto-Currencies (#GotBitcoin?)
JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon indicated in a recent interview with Yahoo Finance that he had not spoken with Facebook about the development of Libra.
"But it's very possible someone in the company did," Dimon said.
"Blockchain is real," he said, citing his company's foray into the space with JPM Coin blockchain. "And I think competition is real."
For Dimon, cryptocurrencies bring disruption to the banking industry because they provide similar services that banks traditionally provided like money transmission, clearinghouse activity, and real-time payments – though he adds, "It's not an existential threat."
"We're going to have competitors, whether its a cryptocurrency competitor or another FinTech competitor. We're going to have competitors."
"I tell our people, don't guess, you know they're there, you know they're coming, you know they want to eat our lunch. Assume it."
Whether it's a bank or a crypto service startup, Dimon said there are serious issues regarding the future of money. He believes some of these are caused by the government, specifically in determining whether they will be subject to banking regulations, KYC, the bank secrecy act, or anti-money laundering rules.
Sympathetic to the crypto industry's desire to serve their clients, Dimon also said he'd "want to be able to serve their clients."
"I always look at these [blockchain] systems like we'd like to do some of it too, ourselves."
Goldman Sachs 'Looking at Potential' of Creating Virtual Currency, CEO Reveals
Goldman Sachs is performing "extensive research" on tokenization, the group's chief executive told France's Les Echos newspaper on June 27.
David Solomon said he believes global payment systems are heading in the direction of stablecoins — cryptocurrencies pegged to fiat assets such as the U.S. dollar.
Although he stopped short of confirming whether Goldman Sachs has had discussions with Facebook about its upcoming libra cryptocurrency and Calibra wallet, Solomon said his corporation finds the concept "interesting."
When asked whether Goldman Sachs will follow JPMorgan Chase in launching its own virtual currency, Solomon said:
"Assume that all major financial institutions around the world are looking at the potential of tokenization, stablecoins and frictionless payments."
Elsewhere in the interview, Solomon predicted that regulations will change in response to virtual currencies — but said he doesn't think new entrants in the cryptosphere will force banks to close. He added:
"Admittedly, they will have to evolve, because the trades linked to the payment flows will become less profitable. But there are many other reasons why banks must remain innovative, otherwise they will disappear."
Solomon also suggested that tech giants such as Facebook would like to avoid the regulatory constraints that banks face, making it more likely that they would try to enter into partnerships than become financial institutions themselves.
Earlier this week, reports suggested that JPMorgan Chase is set to begin piloting its own cryptocurrency by the end of this year.
Back in April, Solomon categorically denied that Goldman Sachs ever had plans to open a crypto trading desk during a hearing before the United States House of Representatives Financial Services Committee. Goldman Sacs And JP, Goldman Sacs And JP

Outdoor Plus Screens to Show Geoff Shreeves World Cup Tweets
Shreeves' match predictions will also appear in Outdoor Plus' network of digital screens at 16 shopping malls across the UK, including Bluewater.
From today Outdoor Plus will screen Shreeves' tweets across its outdoor sites in London, including at the Euston Road underpass, at Vauxhall Cross interchange and City of London Gateway in Aldgate, during the morning and evening rush hours.
Shreeves, a touchline reporter for Sky News, will tweet tips throughout the World Cup tournament to the 274,000 followers of his @Geoffshreeves Twitter handle.
Outdoor Plus hopes the partnership will highlight the way brands can use social media on its digital screens to drive consumer engagement, which it said was vital because 80 per cent of Twitter users tweet while they are out of their homes.
Fifa estimates that around 3.2 billion people will watch at least some part of the World Cup and that the final will have approximately 1.3 billion viewers.

Lowland Hum
In The Crown!
Lowland Hum returns this year for the second annual Songs for Christmas Time holiday concert. The band's 2017 holiday collection (appropriately titled Songs for Christmas Time), resonated powerfully with fans and critics alike, achieving one of the highest ratings from the LA Times and making the Huffington Post top-five Christmas albums of the year. Due to this enthusiastic response,the band released the Christmas album on vinyl in 2018 and will be performing special holiday concerts in select cities in December – a tradition that they hope to continue for years to come!
This holiday tour will feature a healthy dose of the band's retooled Christmas classics with a few Lowland Hum fan favorites sprinkled in. CJ Green of Mockingbird described this album as "simultaneously merry and melancholy, sunny and sober, this quiet, authentic collection will settle the seasonal bickering between your inner Grinch and your adrenalized Who." Attendees can expect to find a welcome at the shows, no matter their position on the humbug to cheer spectrum.
Lowland Hum is a husband and wife art–folk duo from Charlottesville, Virginia. The band has toured the US and abroad, sharing the stage with the likes of Josh Ritter, Jesca Hoop, Penny and Sparrow,& The Oh Hello's along the way. Their fourth full-length studio album, Glyphonic, released in May of 2019.
Tickets are $15 in advance, $18 at the door.
A $1 Facility Fee will be added to the price of each ticket. NC sales tax is included in the ticket price.
Guests can opt to have tickets mailed to them for a $1 postage fee, or can pick tickets up at will call for no additional charge.
Please note: There is an additional $3.50 per ticket service fee on web purchases. To avoid this charge, call the Carolina Theatre Box Office at 336-333-2605 Monday through Friday from noon until 5PM, or visit the Carolina Theatre in person.

There's always an excuse, and mine is a matter of set up, sight issues, and just plain getting out of the habit. There's also the notion that given the current administration there's a real potential for writing the same post every day. But, enough about me. There are some vent valves I need to turn on.
First, there's one story now. The president wants immigration to be the topic, and I'd happily oblige. It's the president playing macho-man, "tough on those brown skinned interlopers" who would "infest" us, who don't arrive speaking fluent English. Who make "real" Americans feel uncomfortable. It's racism with a side of nativism served up to those hungry for someone to blame for the banality of their own lives. Served up to those whose sense of self worth is riddled with such weakness they cannot abide any circumstance in which they are outsiders. Why else their continuous whine about people speaking another language?
Ever wonder at the capacity of white English speakers to assume that if someone is speaking another language then it must be because the non-English speakers are mocking them? It doesn't add more than 10 seconds to a phone call to ask if the caller would like to press 2 for Spanish. Why the whining? That this same whine threads back to German, Irish, Eastern European, Italian, Jewish, and every other previous migration is lost on the Great Discomfited. "Others" make the weak feel uncomfortable, and they hold it as their right not to be the least bit disturbed.
However, when easing one group's discomfort comes at the price of perpetuating cruelty, then that price tag is entirely too steep. The president came right out with it. Don't want to be caged in squalor? Separated from your children? Stuffed into inadequate facilities and then detained indefinitely? Stay away (you're making me uncomfortable.)
The weak kneed racism is patently obvious. Scuttle the DACA program guidelines. End the incentives for non-citizens to join the US military. Threaten to deport non-citizen family members of serving members of the Armed Forces. Insert a citizenship question into the Census. Evict tenants if one family member is undocumented. Change the asylum process from civil to criminal. Withhold interpretation from those who need it during legal proceedings. Advocate detaining asylum seekers indefinitely. The intent has been announced repeatedly. The cruelty is the point. Stay away, you're making me uncomfortable.
Sorry little fragile flowers. If life were to be entirely comfortable there would be no mosquitos and house flies. There are 330+ million people in this great nation, and many of them speak Mandarin, Spanish, French, and Korean. Get over yourself. The odds they are talking about you in the supermarket might be a million to one. At least.
There are no serious calls for open borders. That's a right wing racist talking point extrapolated from questionable premises into fantastical conclusions. It's solely designed to increase discomfort, and hence fear. We are not being invaded. That, too, is a right wing racist talking point. Get past these.
We are either Reagan's city on the hill, or we aren't. We listen carefully to his remarks on his last speech from the White House or we don't.

A new study on childbirth could have important implications for women who are pregnant. The study determined that women are spending a longer time in labor than they were just 50 years ago.
The study, by Dr. Katherine Laughon, of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and colleagues, compared historical records from 39, 491 women who gave birth from 1959 to 1966, to records of 98,359 women who gave birth during 2002 to 2008. Interestingly, the data collected showed that women in their first pregnancy, from the contemporary group, took an average of 2.6 hours longer in their first phase of labor than did women from the past group. Women in their second pregnancy also had longer first phases of labor than did women in the past group. The study also found that women in the contemporary group took a longer time in the second stage of labor than did women from the past. However, the difference in time measured in minutes rather than hours for the second phase of labor.
Researchers are perplexed as to why women are spending a longer time in labor than in the past. However, it is believed that epidurals may be one of the reasons why women are spending a longer time in labor. Generally, it has been found that epidurals can prolong labor by 40 to 90 minutes. Not surprisingly, in the contemporary group, 55% of the women received epidurals during labor compared to only 4% of women in the group from the past. The amount of women who received oxytocin to strengthen contractions and/or speed up delivery also increased, with 31% of women in the contemporary group receiving the drug compared to only 12% of women from the past group. Additionally, there were more women in the contemporary group who gave birth via cesarean section than in the group from the past.
The study also took into account differences between the women in the two groups such as age, ethnicity and weight. The women in the contemporary group tended to be older and heavier than the women in the group from the past. Notwithstanding these differences, the data still suggested a longer phase of labor for women in the latter group.
As stated above, these new findings can have serious implications for women who are pregnant or who are considering pregnancy because doctors may still be administering oxytocin and other such drugs according to past standards of what is considered "normal" labor time. With this new data, doctors may be advised to wait longer before administering drugs that speed up labor time and/or opting for cesarean section.

c-Myc/Max heterodimers bind cooperatively to the E-box sequences located in the first intron of the rat ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) gene

Genetics and Genomics
The oncoprotein c-Myc plays an important role in cell proliferation, transformation, inhibition of differentiation and apoptosis. These functions most likely result from the transcription factor activity of c-Myc. As a heterodimer with Max, the c-Myc protein binds to the E-box sequence (CACGTG), which is also recognized by USF dimers. In order to test differences in target gene recognition of c-Myc/Max, Max and USF dimers, we compared the DNA binding characteristics of these proteins in vitro using vaccinia viruses expressing full-length c-Myc and Max proteins. As expected, purified c-Myc/max binds specifically to a consensus E-box. The optimal conditions for DNA binding by either c-Myc/Max, Max or USF dimers differ with respect to ionic strength and Mg2+ ion concentration. Most interestingly, the c-Myc/Max complex binds with a high affinity to its natural target, the rat ODC gene, which contains two adjacent, consensus E-boxes. High affinity binding results from teh ability of c-Myc/Max dimers to bind cooperatively to these E-boxes. We propose that differential cooperative binding by E-box binding transcription factors could contribute to target gene specificity.

Pencils - Curt Swan
Inks - Murphy Anderson
Letters - Bill Oakley
Colors - Tom Ziuko
Editor - Mike Carlin
I just can't shake it... I'm sitting here, looking at this strip... and the damn thing is called "Wipeout!"... and so, I've had that song (or at least the first verse and change) on repeat in the little radio station I've got playing in my head.
Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaa.... let's do this.
Still being trailed by those Sky-Bikes (for like the third week runnin') Clark and Bob continue their hasty journey across the desert. Bob begins to pray to the Fellowship Elders for guidance. Clark thinks this is a great idea... and, recalling Bob's odd ability to project images, suggests he project something big and dangerous to trip their Consortium Pursuers up once and for all.
Bob digs deep and projects... the Daily Planet Building! The Sky-Bikers freak out, fearing they're just seconds away from becoming wall-pizza, and so, they bail! The building vanishes just as suddenly as it appeared.
Our heroes survive to drive another day (or, in our case, week). Actually, Clark looks back at the baddies... and thinks to himself that he would really appreciate some answers. And so, I gotta wonder if next week will be an interrogation strip? That could be a very good thing... or, a very bad thing.
Well, at least something happened, right?
Bob Galt got an opportunity to use his powers, and shine for a moment... which, was cool. It was also like the first time in all these twenty-eight weeks (to date) that I didn't wanna punch him in the face... so, there's that too!
Really not much more to say... it was a creative way to duck their pursuers, and really probably wasn't the worst thing I'll read today!
Tomorrow: Mockingbird Unmasked... for real this time! Prepare to be whelmed...

Looks like the 50 Cent and French Montana beef is certainly on. French Montana was set to have a listening session for his album Excuse My French last night until 50 Cent heard about the listening session and decided he wanted to show up, taunting French on Twitter that he would be appearing. French Montana then taunted 50 Cent right back, mocking his infamous G-Unit tank tops. Shortly after 50 Cent tweeted about showing up to the listening session, it was apparently cancelled by Interscope.
50 Cent then Tweeted more about the listening session being cancelled referring to it as a ghost town, and joked that it's a shame because he wanted to hear French's new music. Yeah, sure 50.
It was all good just a week ago. No really, it was. That photo of 50 Cent and French Montana together was taken not too long ago at the BET Hip Hop Awards taping in Atlanta.
Read 50 and French's beef Tweets after the break.

The EHERCC is delighted to be able to confirm the news from the EHE Foundation that three major gifts in support of EHE research have been received in the USA:
- $1 million grant to Dr Rubin from the Margie and Robert E. Petersen Foundation;
- $1 million grant in matched funding also from the Margie and Robert E. Petersen Foundation.
- $1 million grant from a private donor to set up an EHE Centre of Excellence at Memorial Sloan Kettering in New York.
Any one of these is unbelievable for EHE research and advancing our goals, but to get all three is amazing.
The EHE foundations are now focusing on the matched funding gift. The Petersen Foundation will match up to $1 million that the EHE Group can raise worldwide, over the next three years. That means that every pound, euro or dollar we raise will be matched by the same donation from the Petersen Foundation. So for the next three years every pound raised is worth 2!!
We hope that this wonderful give and huge incentive will spur our supporters on to even greater fundraising achievements.

What Goes on Inside an Intervention?
Interventions have become a household word for the general public, thanks to television shows such as "Celebrity Rehab" and "Intervention." Although an intervention is not necessary in every situation, some situations benefit greatly from one. Every situation is different, but most interventions do follow a similar structure.
An intervention is a planned event where friends and family members face an addict about his or her problems. An intervention is carefully planned and provides a forum for family members and loved ones to confront the problem and express their concerns, in the hope that a person will enter treatment.
Although it is most commonly used for those suffering from drug or alcohol addiction, an intervention can also be used for other behavior problems.
Anyone can plan an intervention, but there are professional interventionists who assist family members and loved ones in the process. One of the important elements of planning an intervention is deciding who should attend. An intervention does not need to be large. An ideal number is between five and eight people.
Close friends, family members, co-workers, clergymen, and other people involved in an addict's life can be part of an intervention. However, the important element of an intervention is that it remains as calm as possible.
Therefore, anyone who struggles with anger problems, or who also struggles with an addiction problem, should not be invited. It is important to plan what everyone says carefully, as well as plan the event's exact schedule.
An intervention is about confronting a person about his or her problems while showing support, not criticizing the person. It is important not to make it seem like a betrayal. Therefore, it should focus on specific examples of actions that caused problems for the addicted person or loved one.
An intervention should also have a prearranged treatment plan in place that the person will enter immediately after the intervention ends. Each person also will share specific consequences that will happen if the person refuses to enter treatment.
There are several types of interventions that can be undertaken, but the most common type is a surprise intervention. The friends and family carefully prepare what to say ahead of time and bring the person to the event on a particular date and time.
Each person involved in the intervention reads a specific statement created ahead of time that spells out his or her concerns about a person's behavior, citing specific examples of problematic behavior or consequences. Each person will also detail a specific consequence if the person does not enter treatment, such as the person not being able to live at home or see his or her children.
At the end of everyone's statements, the person will be given a treatment plan. He or she can choose either to enter treatment right away or not. However, if he or she does not, then the people in the intervention will follow through with the consequences. There are also interventions that involve family counseling that help to stop the enabling process.
Interventions can get emotional, which is why it is very important to plan and practice ahead of time and only say what is written. Having a professional interventionist mediate the experience can also keep emotions in check.
Interventions are not always successful at getting a person into treatment. However, they stop the enabling system and provide help and support for the victims of the addiction, namely partners, spouses, and children.

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- In what is being called the largest settlement in Pennsylvania court history, after nearly four years, the victims of a deadly food truck explosion will receive $160-million, plus an additional confidential amount.
The food truck erupted in a ball of fire on a street corner in Feltonville on July 1, 2014, killing the owner of the truck and her teenage daughter.
Last week, federal authorities announced indictments against U-Haul, and the manager of its Hunting Park location, alleging violations of hazardous material codes.
The owner of the food truck filled the propane tank at U-Haul. Investigators claim it was not done properly, and that caused a leak and ultimately the fatal explosion.
Along with the two victims who were killed, three others were severely burned, and even more were injured.
The burn victims are minors and were not named in this settlement for privacy reasons.
"They have a lifetime of suffering and medical procedures, plastic surgery and dysfunction and we hope this gives them an opportunity to rebuild their life as much as they can," said attorney Robert Mongeluzzi.
The estates of the two women killed are also receiving about $36.5M as part of this suit.
Since this tragedy, there are new safety standards for checking and maintaining propane tanks. The one that exploded in this case was 70 years old.

Oh yeah....the drool. It was there. They had just finished a piece of cookie & I guess they licked it off. ;D
I get that same look, too. Only I think mine are saying "Mom, that cookie would look SO much better in MY mouth than on YOUR hips".
Or maybe I'm just paranoid. I don't always share (just mostly).
Hope they liked their cookie.

- 1 cup organic cream
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 cup Parmesan, Asiago blend, shaved
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- STEP 1. Melt the ghee and olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the shallots. Sauté for 2 minutes until translucent, and add the garlic. Add the chicken and lightly brown on each side, about 5 minutes.
- STEP 2. Add the mushrooms and sauté for 5 minutes, until some of the water evaporates.

Processing Technologies International (PTi) LLC, Aurora, Ill., has developed a special device to compensate for roll deflection that commonly occurs over time in sheet-roll stands. PTi's Roll Skewing mechanism allows operators to fine-tune the position of the lead roll on a horizontal stack—or the bottom roll on an up or J-stack, or the top roll in a downstack—to mitigate the impact of roll deflection and allow processing sheet with more uniform thickness across its entire width.
When placed under high loads, typical steel/chrome rolls used in standard sheet stacks will eventually pull away from each other in the center, creating a gap between the top two rolls that is wider in the center than at the edges. As a result, the film will be thicker in the center than at the edges.
Featured Content
Roll-stack suppliers have used various methods to counter this phenomenon over the years. One common approach is to pre-grind a camber into the top roll to create a "crowning" effect. While this method has been effective for the most part, it is limited to a narrow range of products because the geometry of the camber is inherently fixed, according to James Johnson, a senior v.p. and technical consultant with PTi who formerly was senior v.p. of sales and marketing.
Another approach to counteract roll deflection is roll bending, whereby the top roll bends in a direction opposite to the load so that it conforms to the middle roll—creating a "smile" pattern between the two rolls that is said to minimize the effects of deflection. One such roll design, the ContraBend, was developed and patented in 1996 by New Castle Industries (now part of Nordson Xaloy, Pulaski, Va.). "This technique also limits the overall effectiveness across a wide operating range," Johnson states. "Roll loads less than 800 PLI are required, due to the spring constant and mechanical limitations of the operating window for this type of roll design."
PTi's patent-pending device, on the other hand, gives operators the flexibility to skew each side of the top roll by ±0.75 in.
While roll skewing itself is not new, PTi's method reportedly is. It employs a cross-axis positioning of the roll such that the roll deflection is "wrapped" about the mating roll to create a uniform gap over a wide operating range. PTi recommends the technique for processing thin-gauge materials such as PP because of the system's adjustability over a wide range of deflection patterns and gauge targets. PP has been successfully run down to 0.012 in. using skewing adjustments, Johnson says.
On the PTi device, the bearing assembly mounted to the chrome roll journal is housed within, and keyed to, an outer housing. The machine-direction position of the bearing assembly within the outer housing is controlled by a threaded push/pull device mounted on the front cap of the outer housing. Using this device to adjust one bearing assembly forward, and the other backward by the same amount, causes the center of the top roll to remain centered over the center of the middle roll, while the deflection of the top roll will "wrap" around the middle roll.

Green homes are slowly becoming the norm rather than the exception. Having a green home is not only beneficial to the environment, but it cuts down on energy expenses too. Homes which have integrated green features consume much less fossil fuels, use sustainable materials, and have a much less carbon footprint. As a homeowner, you should be aware of certain features which can be incorporated easily during construction, which will enable you to get LEED certification, thus increasing the value of your home. The growing availability of certified DIY products also helps to upgrade the green quotient of your existing home.
So how do you start going green
By making a few simple changes you can have a greener home. Here's a checklist of a few green options for your home:
A home which is well-insulated can help to reduce your heating and cooling bills. Start by sealing all air leaks in your home which can let out heat or let in the cold. Choose certified materials for recycled content that give an assurance for both air quality and insulation.
Select carpets which are not treated chemically and made using natural fibres, and adhere to sustainable carpet standards. Use carpets that are made by reusing or reclaiming the materials at the end of their life cycle.
Bathrooms and kitchens
You can make your bathrooms and kitchens more eco friendly by using wood or any other material which is formaldehyde free, such as agrifiber boards, bamboo and FSC certified plyboards etc. For countertops, you can buy beautiful scrap stone from stone and marble dealers, which will be cheaper and reduce waste as well. Installing low flow toilets and faucets in bathrooms and kitchens will conserve water.
Rubber, cork, vinyl, bamboo, reclaimed wood, ceramic and stone are eco friendly flooring options. FSC certified wood is your best bet if you want to buy wood which is genuinely sustainable. Linoleum, which is made using recycled materials, is a good eco friendly floor option.
Paints have evolved to a great extent, and many companies offer vibrant colours, coverage, durability etc but without chemicals, added solvents or any harmful odours. You can check if the paint of your choice has been certified for indoor air quality.
Doors and windows
Installing the right doors and windows made from sustainable or recycled materials can reduce your energy bill by quite a bit. You can retrofit storm windows on your existing windows to improve thermal insulation as well as soundproofing.
Plant trees
Planting a lot of trees and filling your outdoors and indoors with a lot of greenery can help to keep your home cool and improve the air quality in and around your home.
Reduce, control electricity usage
The golden rule to save electricity in your home is to switch off any electrical appliance, TVs, lights and fans etc when not in use. Replace the most used light sources with energy efficient lightbulbs. Using power strips for your electronics, and turning back the thermostat by 7-10 degrees for at least eight hours every day, will conserve energy. Insulating your water heater tanks will considerably reduce your water heating bill.
As more and more people are becoming eco conscious, they are paying more for homes which are eco friendly. Thus, a green home not only makes you eco friendly but also increases the financial value of your home. You can make simple or elaborate changes according to your budget, but you will always have a good return on your investment.

Slowly making its way here
Taco Bell has recently opened a store in a shopping mall in Madrid! It is currently the only Taco Bell in Europe (outside of US military based), but I have heard they plan to open a few more in Spain and then open a couple in England.
I doubt they will ever make it to France. Other than McDonald's and Subway, American fast food has really struggled in France. We got a couple KFCs (one near Lyon), and a handful of Pizza Hut's and Domino's Pizzas, but that's about it. Burger King made a valiant effort to survive in France, but it didn't make it, and Coke has nearly kicked Pepsi out of the country :-(
I've never been much of a fast food fan, and in fact before moving to France I couldn't tell you the last time I ate McDonald's, but I do love Taco Bell (it's cheap, it's vegetarian friendly, they serve Mountain Dew, and it's surprisingly healthy compared to most other fast food), so I would love to see a Taco Bell open up in Lyon.
One can always dream...
