Year in Industry or Abroad 2011/12
Our MChem degree programmes offer the opportunity to work in industry or an overseas university during the third year. The work consists of a substantial original research project and is supplemented by modules taken by distance learning to maintain contact with Cardiff University.
Read what our students have to say about this experience.
Sapphire Mahony. Campden BRI - Gloucestershire
Campden BRI is a large food research and training organisation that tests food and drink from all stages of its production, from 'farm to the fork'. As a placement student, I worked with different teams within the chemistry department. This included analysing food taints and 'off' flavours formed in food and drinks and determining the vitamin content in fruit juices. I spent much of my time with the food contact material migration team. We tested the levels of chemical migration from packaging constituents into food. This was done by taking into account surface area of the food contact material, the weight or volume of the food, the time and temperature of test, and the food simulant. The migrating molecules could be the toxic monomers of the plastic polymer, toxic heavy metals, ink compounds, adhesive molecules, etc. Levels of packaging migration were measured using various forms of spectroscopy and chromatography. As the year went on I was given greater responsibility within the migration team, such as carrying out many 'methods' at the same time, calculating the results, and communicating with clients of Campden BRI. Whilst on the placement, I learnt about relevant food legislation and British and global food quality standards. The chemistry department were welcoming and my supervisor was always willing to help me with any academic queries I had regarding the University research project. The research project was quite hard as I had never done anything like that before but it has made me more confident and prepared me for doing my final dissertation at University.
Lewis Berry. Tata Steel Packaging – Trostre
My placement was anything other than a typical chemistry based year out. My placement was in Tata Steel packaging in Trostre, source of the majority of material for can making and speciality packaging in Britain. Throughout the placement I was not treated as a placement student but the lead on the subject of the investigation, with it being necessary to be able to interact with senior figures in Tata Steel Europe. The chemistry involved was inherent in the process of tinplate manufacture and the use of analytical techniques was commonplace. My placement was spent as a project manager in the eradication of a defect inherent in the batch annealing process in tinplate manufacture. The skills I developed during this placement were focused a lot more from a managerial perspective with less emphasis on improving chemistry based knowledge. The project allowed for the use of different analytical techniques throughout, with the use of GDOES, XPS and SEM being undertaken in external sites. The analytical facilities at Cardiff University were also used to further the investigation. The opportunity also arose to visit the sister site in Ijmuiden, Holland, to lead a knowledge exchange visit with the Dutch. The project led to presentations being made to Tata Steel directors, European Manufacturing directors, and plant managers in both Wales and Holland and provided a terrific opportunity to get used to presenting under such pressure in front of senior company directors.
Alexander Smyth. RWE nPower - Aberthaw
For my year in industry, I worked at a powerstation in the Regulation Department. The station is a 1600 MW/h coal fired station that features flue gas desulphurisation technology, three gas turbines for frequency response and biomass burning capability. During the year out I was mostly involved in a research project on a Carbon Capture Pilot Plant that will investigate the feasibility and efficiency of CO2 capture from exhaust gas from the station. Other work included water treatment chemistry, sampling and routine chemical analysis of samples from the station. The placement year showed me another way to use my chemistry degree in an industry that I had not considered before and how theory taught in university can be put into practise at work. I thoroughly enjoyed the year out and I feel that it has greatly improved my employability after graduation.
Owain Meredith. Montpellier University
My year abroad was spent at a laboratory linked to the Ecole Nationale Superieure Chimie Montpellier, focusing on forming new polymers for practical applications. I worked with high-pressure reactors, and used a wide variety of analytical techniques such as NMR, IR, TGA (Thermogravimetric analysis) and DSC (Differential scanning calorimetry). I found the year quite challenging due to the differences in culture and particularly language, and I would definitely recommend taking French lessons beforehand. The project work was also challenging, as I had no prior knowledge in this area of chemistry, but the other researchers in the lab were very friendly and always on hand to help out, not just with my project but also with great advice about Montpellier. Looking back I'm extremely grateful that I was given the opportunity, and it's a great thing to have on my CV.
Jessica Waite. Atomic Weapons Establishment - Reading
I worked at the within the Sensors and Spectroscopy team and my project was based on developing a spectroscopic system to analyse transient gas samples. During the year a learnt a range of new techniques, I found the year very interesting and learnt how to apply differing types of chemistry to tasks at hand. I also moved around the company and found out more about other research being undertaken, and how it all relates back to the product. I found the year very interesting and all my colleagues were very welcoming and helpful. I would recommend the year in industry to anyone.
Nathan East. Purolite - Llantrisant
Purolite are a leading supplier of specialty resins for ion exchange and catalysis. My time was spent in optimising synthetic routes for existing products and developing new products for different applications. My project involved designing a procedure to produce a polymer that could be used as a stationary phase for HPLC. To do this I had to apply the problem solving skills learned in years one and two of my chemistry degree. I was also able to see how different products are translated from small scale production in a research lab, to large scale commercial production. It was great to see how the chemistry learned applied to the industry, and to learn how the chemistry learned applies to different problems. Working with a research group and regularly having to present your findings, helps develop skills which are very important for a career in chemistry. A year in industry is a chance to gain invaluable experience in the chemical industry, one which employers will appreciate when it comes to finishing university and finding a job in chemistry.
Antonio Cirillo. AstraZeneca - Macclesfield
I spent my industrial placement working for at their Alderley Park site. AstraZeneca is a multinational pharmaceutical company and it was great to be exposed to the business side of the company as well as using my university developed skills. The company took on about 60 students in a range of disciplines so I got to meet a range of other people who were in the same position as me. I was based in the oncology department working with a lot of early phase anti-cancer compounds. The majority of my work was analytical and I gained vast experience in numerous techniques such as HPLC, SFC, NMR and Mass spec. Throughout my time there I was continuously given opportunities to experience other departments and get a feel for how the whole company worked. Everyone at AstraZeneca was incredibly helpful and from day one they made me feel like a proper part of the team and not just a student. At first I was hesitant about doing a year in industry but after completing it I don't understand why I ever had any doubts. The technical experience and various contacts I have gained will prove invaluable throughout my career.
Jon Barry. Reckitt Benckiser – Hull
I spent my placement year working in the Health and Personal Care, R&D Department. At Reckitt Benckiser I was never treated like a student (although there were around 30 other students so you could still live like one), I was working on real projects with the same freedom and responsibilities as permanent employees. Working as an analyst during the placement I gained experience in many different analytical techniques used that are used throughout the industry. I have no regrets about choosing to go on a year's placement. Not only did it improve my skills as a chemist but it also gave me an insight into the world of industry. A year in industry sets you up well for your future career; from your 4th year MChem project to getting a job.
James Corcoran. Vectura - Chippenham
I spent my Placement Year working for Vectura whom specialise in inhaled therapeutics, targeting respiratory diseases such as asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). My project involved determining the efficacy of an inhaler developed by Vectura, by comparing the product's performance in-vivo and in-vitro. During my year, I was taught how to operate and run a High Performance Liquid Chromatograpy (HPLC) system, applying theory learnt from my previous two years of study. I was also introduced to new items of equipment that wouldn't have been available at University, as the testing methods were niche to the aerosol market. This placement was a great way to interact with different kinds of people, enhancing both my CV and presentation skills. I would recommend it to anyone who is considering going on a placement.

'Buying' your father's life insurance policy
It might be a decent investment, but how would it go over with other family members?
This post comes from Jim Wang at partner site Bargaineering.
A reader, John, e-mailed me a question about secondary sales of life insurance policies. He had learned that his father was going to cancel his term life insurance policy at the end of the month and he was considering "buying" it from his father by paying the premiums and collecting the death benefit.
We didn't get into the specifics but he ran the numbers and believes there's a 5% annual return if his father dies within 28 years (by age 91). He wanted to know if I thought this was a good idea.
It's always tricky when it comes to family and money, and it's especially tricky if it involves death. All the problems I see with this plan have to do with relationships, and navigating those issues is going to prove more challenging than navigating the financial aspects of this idea.
The investment
A 5% annual return over the next 28 years is good compared with the alternatives available right now. You can't get a 28-year certificate of deposit, but the yield on a 30-year Treasury today is about 4.40%. A 5% annual return is a 13.6% increase over the safest of safe investments. It's less than what you'd get in the stock market but it's far safer.
I don't know how John calculated the 5% return. I don't know if he calculated it based on the premiums, whether he accounted for present value, or any of the other stuff that a true apples-to-apples comparison would consider. Ultimately, I believe the decision isn't about money and more about the "other stuff," so I think this comparison is good enough.
The last few years have seen a boom in secondary sales of life insurance policies, where investors buy life insurance policies from individuals who are looking to cash out today. If investors can buy life insurance -- that is to say, they are paying someone for the right to make their premium payments -- then certainly John should be able to generate a positive return if he can get a life insurance policy for "free."
The other stuff
In my brief e-mails with John, it's obvious he can separate the emotional from the financial. That may not be the case for his siblings. While he'll probably discuss it with them all, when it comes down to the actual financial transaction (when his father dies), things may not be so easily resolved.
Death is almost always a very emotional time, and things decided, and documented, when the sky is sunny may not be so easily remembered when the clouds roll in. (John is aware of this, saying, "Some potential issues that I foresee are disputes by my siblings at the time of payout and the claim that my mother would have on the benefit if she were still living at the time. Everyone seems onboard with the agreement today, although a couple decades may change their opinions.")
There's also the less significant issue of pitting your financial interests against your social interests. When an investor buys a policy, hopefully he isn't sitting around hoping that the policy's former owner dies. Even if he is, it doesn't matter. It's clear that John doesn't feel this way, but it could become an issue.
Here's where you guys come in. John was curious whether you thought it was a good idea and whether it was worth causing potential drama among his siblings later on?

Clayton County Sheriff Victor Hill was in court Friday, just days before his corruption trial is scheduled to begin. His attorneys are trying to have evidence in the case thrown out.Prosecutors have agreed to drop four theft charges against Hill, but the sheriff still faces 28 counts accusing him of theft and corruption. One of the biggest issues is whether or not the prosecution is attempting to put evidence in that shows him improperly using county funds and county vehicles. Prosecutors say the campaign funds issue shows how Hill allegedly used county money for his own purposes."We contend that this money that he took from the general ledger account, the use of the county purchase card -- all of that were incidents where the defendant had lawful possession of those funds," said prosecutor Layla Zon. "As a sheriff, he was in charge to use those funds for the appropriate purposes. However, as a sheriff, he also took an oath that said, 'I shall take nothing other than lawful fees that are owed me.'"Hill's attorney, Steven Frey, countered, "He is the sheriff 365 days of the year, seven days a week. We believe that all which that is under his control -- the sheriff's vehicle and the automobiles and all the equipment -- is his to use as he sees fit."Both sides agreed on Friday that Hill's voice can't be on robocalls from his office to county residents during the trial.Hill's attorneys did get some of what they were asking for: he is still allowed to wear his badge in court, but he's not allowed to bring his firearm or wear his uniform in the courtroom. The trial is scheduled to get underway with jury selection bright and early on Monday morning.

Most RVers are motivated by the mystery and intrigue of the never-ending, open pavement, but for at least one, driving around desert sand in circles proved to be more alluring. The above picture may look like one of those corn-field alien creations, but this one is admittedly man made.
Jim Denevan, an artist who specializes in this form of Earth sketching, spent some time creating the "largest artwork in history" by driving his tour bus around in big circles in Nevada's Black Rock Desert in May 2009. The piece of art measures nine miles in radius. Quite an undertaking. For more information and video, check out Denevan's website.

If I had to pick one of my top 5 Fall comfort foods, it would be Chili. Add cornbread to it and you have a delicious, frugal meal that will satisfy a hungry teenage boy! The fiber in the beans allows the carbohydrates to burn slowly, giving my son the fuel he needs to work out and run long distances. You can add just about anything to chili; it is a true clean out the fridge type of stew. Actually, most soups and stews are great for using up odds and ends of vegetables, grains and legumes.
This cornbread can be made with whole wheat flour or a gluten free baking mix. I like Bob's Red Mill All-Purpose Baking Mix myself. It is pricey, though, so I use white whole wheat flour most of the time when I bake for my son.
Basic Gluten Free Vegan Cornbread
1/2 c golden flax meal
1 1/4 c rice milk
1/4 c sugar
1/2 c oil
1/2 t salt
1 c cornmeal
1 c Bob's GF All Purpose Baking Mix
1 T baking powder
Method: Pre-heat oven to 375
In a mixing bowl, add the flax, rice milk sugar and oil. Whisk for several minutes. Sift the rest of the ingredients into the bowl and mix. If you are using gluten free flour, whisk very well, If you are using wheat flour, mix just to incorporate.
Spray a cast iron skillet or 8 by 8 pan and bake for 30 minutes.
For a delicious topping, melt some coconut oil with cinnamon and stevia and drizzle on top of the corbread.
Now, onto my menu for yesterday.
First of all, I am finding this challenge, more difficult this time around. When I began this before, I had a very well stocked pantry. I don't have that anymore, so I am having to be more creative. I don't even many spices. I don't have a stock of dried beans and grains. My freezer is pretty empty. That's OK though!
|BBQ Collard Wrap
Lunch: BBQ Collard Burgers with fermented nut cheese
Snack: Green Smoothie ( collard, banana, water )
Dinner: Chili and Cornbread
For those with heartier appetites, add peanut butter to the oatmeal, double portions of chili and cornbread and coconut/cinnamon oil to the oatmeal and cornbread. Also, for lunch, burgers on bread instead of collards and add a piece of Pear Ginger Breakfast Bread; protein powder and rice milk in green smoothie.

MILWAUKEE (WTAQ) - A state appeals court judge says a former Milwaukee County Walker aide cannot keep evidence of her crimes secret, while she appeals her conviction.
45-year-old Kelly Rindfleisch pleaded guilty in 2012 to doing campaign work for Republicans on taxpayer time while working for Governor Scott Walker while he was the Milwaukee County executive.
She was sentenced to six months in jail, but she's appealing -- and she wanted her e-mails that were dug up during the investigation to be kept under wraps.
Appellate Judge Patricia Curley said Tuesday that only a limited number of Rindfleisch's personal data can be kept secret -- things like Social Security numbers and medical information. She said other data is routinely released in other people's cases -- and Curley said Rindfleisch had no right to hide evidence just because she doesn't want it to be made public.
Rindfleisch was given 30 days to review the documents, and ask that specific personal items be kept secret. Her attorney, Franklyn Gimbel, said it's a heavy burden for his client -- and he's considering an appeal of the order to the State Supreme Court.

Blog of @AndyKinsey,
Labour Councillor for Hyde Werneth.
A Strong Positive Voice for Hyde
Views on this website are those of Andy Kinsey and not necessarily those of Tameside Labour.
Website hosted by Tumblr and promoted by and on behalf of Andy Kinsey, 69 Syddall Street, Hyde
When Ed Miliband stood on stage in Manchester to give his keynote speech to conference he spoke of history and the future, he talked of everything that has happened recently and what we could do to fix that. But although Ed's speech was great and gave the party direction, it left some with an uncomfortable feeling about his words "one nation" - which is understandable given its a fairly conservative idea.
But 2 months on lets look at what One Nation means to the Labour Party and how it shows the ideals deeply embedded in the party more than almost any other policy we could have.
"One Nation" is not about either being the only country or not caring for other countries of the world. "One Nation" is not about having a laissez faire attitude toward others. So what is "One Nation" to me, to the Labour Party and what does it mean for the UK?
One Nation is about bringing together everything we care about and this country is so great because of; faith, family and flag. In essence One Nation is the holy trinity of politics, it's caring for everything you care for, regardless of your faith, your beliefs or your politics. It is about caring for everyone in the same way.
So what does this mean for the UK?
For the UK the idealism of Ed's "One Nation" is about showing that we are a social society that care for one another, regardless of creed, colour or other distinguishing factors. Ed's "One Nation" speaks deeply to me about how we can achieve more together, through combined efforts we can regrow our economy, we can invest in our future and through practicing the ideals of one nation we can make this country a better place for everyone to live.
Today it's time to make clear, we believe in One Nation.

What doctors, lawyers, real estate agents, and other professionals need to know about the review site.
It may come as a surprise to lawyers, doctors, and real estate agents that clients are reviewing their work on the hyper-popular Yelp.com. With 66 million unique monthly visitors in Q4 2011, and over 25 million posted reviews, it is no surprise that Yelp has become the go-to consumer tool for discovering local services. While many turn to the growing site for gauging restaurants and hair salons, the masses are scanning reviews for professional services as well.
There's nothing stopping professional service firms from getting the same reputation management benefits of Yelp ratings and reviews as entertainment services. Here are a few tips for implementing a professional service-specific Yelp strategy.
1. Make a profile before someone else makes it for you. There are plenty of cases of businesses ending up on Yelp without actively signing up themselves. As clearly stated in Yelp's FAQ section, "[it] license[s] basic business information from third-party data providers…and from [its] users" to set up certain pages. Instead of leaving yourself blind to former customers and clients that could be reviewing your services, take control of your Internet real estate and set up a Yelp profile before a stranger has the chance.
2. Manage your front-office staff. First impressions are, more often than not, everything. When writing a Yelp review or choosing between three or four stars, clients will remember the faces who greeted them first - be it receptionists, nurses, or assistants. Even if the doctor's visit went smoothly or you helped a client win a case, the overall disposition of your office is powerful enough to turn a shining review into a lackluster one. Communicate the importance of etiquette and accessibility to your entire staff in order to leave clients with something positive to relay.
3. Build a robust profile. When building a business profile, Yelp offers countless fields to fill in - and they all deserve some attention. Even seemingly basic details, such as photos of your office or explanation of payment methods, are worth including. Yelp pages get premium placement in Google search results, increasing the likelihood that potential clients may see your Yelp profile before your actual website - so it should be just as informative. Take advantage of more advanced profile widgets including "Meet the Manager" and "Recommend Like-Minded Businesses," which help give your firm a richer online personality.
4. Encourage reviews from current or former clients. Once your work with a client or patient is complete, there is no harm in asking them to consider reviewing their experience on Yelp. This is the easiest way to rack up credibility and, if you're confident that the service you provided was a success, you're likely to see plenty of positive feedback. Even if the reviews you receive aren't all five stars, they're still wins; take comments as constructive criticism and use them as foundation for improvement. If you're uncomfortable asking for reviews outright, include a link to your Yelp profile on your website and in your email signature instead.
5. Interact with Yelpers. Many businesses assume that Yelp is a one-way venue for consumers and clients to voice praise or bad experiences. The beauty of Yelp, however, is its interactivity. As a service provider, you should take the time to publicly and privately respond to reviews - both positive and negative - on a regular basis. Some professionals worry that replying to negative posts sheds an unnecessary spotlight on the blemish, but if done tastefully, an owner response can take the edge off a scathing review. Letting clients know that their opinion matters puts you in the proactive spot.

Winner of Muhr AsiaAfrica / Feature /Muhr AsiaAfrica Feature – Best Composer: Christopher Khoo (Composer)
"Tatsumi" uses dazzling animation to celebrate the work and life of Japanese graphic artist Yoshihiro Tatsumi. In post-war occupied Japan, young Tatsumi's passion for comics eventually becomes a means of supporting his family. Having been published as a teenager, the talented Tatsumi finds greater inspiration after meeting his idol, the famous animator Osamu Tezuka. Despite his success, Tatsumi questions the nature of Japanese comics – primarily for children with cute, whimsical tales and illustrations. In 1957, Tatsumi created 'gekiga' (dramatic pictures) and redefined the manga landscape by encouraging an alternative genre for adults. Realistic and disquieting, Tatsumi's work grappled with the darker aspects of life...

When Patriots head coach Bill Belichick is in the mood to answer a question about the in's and out's of game planning, scouting, or stats, you're in for a treat. If you're the type of football fan who values looks into what goes on behind the scenes or how coaches go about doing things, you got your money's worth during Bill Belichick's press conference earlier today. A question, and then a few follow-up's, were asked about what, if anything, can be learned watching the playoff games on TV as opposed to watching the coaches' film, and Belichick gave some great insight. Coaches' tape is an overhead shot of all 22 players on the field, broken up snap by snap, where you can better see formations and where and how each player moves.
Grab your green notebook and enjoy another lesson from Professor Belichick:
"Well there's a lot more for us on the coaches' film. I don't want to say there's no value, but it's a lot higher on the coaches' film than TV scouting.
"Maybe a play or two [that you can judge from live TV], I don't know. You're at the mercy of whatever they show you. If they show you something and you can learn something from it then great. We really have to get a lot of information off the coaches' copy where you can see all 22 players and see exactly what the schemes and the relationships are. Sometimes you get a close-up shot and you can see a little more when it's just two guys in the picture instead of 22. I mean, I'm not saying there isn't any value to that because there is and we use that all the time because of the closeness of the shot and how much more detailed it can be relative to a technique or hand placement, little things like that. But as far as actually scouting the team, no.
"There is probably some [value of seeing a game unfold real time to see the momentum that occurs in a game].
"There is a little bit of a disconnect from the tempo of the game [watching coaches' film]. That can play into it; there's no question that can play into it. Although we do, as I'm sure every team does, we do break those things down – like what a team does after they get a turnover, as an example, that type of thing. It's not just another play; it's a specific situation that we look at. Yeah, there's definitely a flow of the game that you don't get off of the coaches' copy."
A question was then asked about how he receives the film and how quickly he gets it. Belichick said that they usually get the 1 p.m. game by 11 p.m. or 12 a.m. How it gets to him, he doesn't know, and his comical response provided a new term to put up there with his "MyFace" term.
"…there's no picking up the film at the airport and waiting for the FedEx. There's nobody delivering it. It's all, I don't know, wire-optics or some other term that I don't even know what I'm talking about."
Wire-optics. Yep.

The 11 Dumbest Things Conservatives Have Said About Women
Photo Credit: A.M. Stan
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
In Congress this week, the GOP attempted to push through the vile Blunt amendment, which would allow any employer to deny insurance coverage to employees for services deemed immoral. While couched in "religious freedom" terms, this move is a direct attack on women's health, a backlash to the president's birth control mandate and a chance for men to impose their will on women. The amendment failed by three votes in the Senate on Thursday, but not without wasting time, energy and attempting to move the discourse on women's health further into the past.
This time around, the GOP and its allies in the right-wing media aren't even pretending bills like this are pro-women. In fact, if we put all conservative pundits' thoughts on gender from the past month together, we'd see women as truly dismal creatures, oversexed rape-bait dummies who don't understand themselves and their own needs.
This month, as we've been documenting at AlterNet, any facade of faux-feminism espoused by the right wing has fallen away. Instead, women have been posited, publicly, as everything undeserving under the sun -- from the same old virgin-whore dichotomies to insults far beyond. Even worse, we've been told, public policy should be reflective of this natural inferiority. Hence, the Blunt amendment, the patronizing mandatory ultrasound bills, the push to define a fertilized embryo as a person.
But the verbal assault that has accompanied this ongoing legislative assault may have the unexpected benefit of prompting a backlash due to its outrageousness. Our loose-tongued friends on the right may have done us a favor with some of this bile, exposing the true sentiments that go along with the bills restricting abortion and contraception access.
Here are some of the less noted but equally heinous things said about women in 2012 alone--with video and transcripts where available.
1. "Sex-Crazed Co-Eds..." thus begins the headline on a piece by right-winger Craig Bannister, about Sandra Fluke, the Georgetown student who was denied the ability to testify by Darrell Issa. The hot and bothered Mr. Bannister, by interpreting Fluke's testimony by the price of condoms rather than the hormonal birth control that she actually referred to, uses the word "sex" so many times throughout the piece you'd think it was on his mind. A lot. A small sampling:
"A Georgetown co-ed told Rep. Nancy Pelosi's hearing that the women in her law school program are having so much sex that they're going broke, so you and I should pay for their birth control...Apparently, four out of every ten co-eds are having so much sex that it's hard to make ends meet if they have to pay for their own contraception, Fluke's research shows."
As we know, contraception has little to do with how much sex a woman is having, but instead with how protected she is when she has it. Hormonal contraception can be used to regulate menstruation, control pain and acne, and protect against unwanted pregnancy no matter how often and when its user has sex. Unlike condoms, hormonal contraception puts the control for pregnancy prevention in women's hands -- and many couples prefer to combine oral contraceptions with condoms to avoid both STDs and pregnancies.
Rush Limbaugh echoed, and one-upped Bannister on his show of the 29th, calling Fluke a "slut" and a "prostitute" for wanting contraceptive coverage:
What does it say about the college coed Susan Fluke [sic], who goes before a congressional committee and essentially says that she must be paid to have sex? What does that make her? It makes her a slut, right? It makes her a prostitute. She wants to be paid to have sex.

What form of renewable energy has or will have the lowest impact on biodiversity?
Climate change, air pollution, rising sea levels and species extinction can all be attributed to the increasing usage of non-renewable energy in the world today. Non-renewable energy reserves are diminishing and finite with an ever-increasing demand from countries around the world. Coal, natural gas and oil all have detrimental effects on the environment. These effects are both local and global, harming species throughout the world. As we consider different renewable forms of energy, can we rank their potential impacts on biodiversity?
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Apr 24 2013: Since biodiversity literally covers the entirety of the earth, any attempts we make to harness energy for our own uses will affect it. The affects of fossil fuels are increasingly obvious, nuclear waste is likely to seep into the environment, solar panels will alter the habitats of wherever they are located, and wind turbines will affect local birds, among other things. I know little about alternative sources of energy because it's a subject that doesn't interest me much, but, unless new technologies emerge, solar and wind seem to have the lowest impact on biodiversity, even if they likely aren't capable of meeting the energy demands of the world.

At a press conference Monday in Philadelphia, Bucks County 8th District congressional candidate Kathy Boockvar, former Governor Ed Rendell and city District Attorney Seth Williams spoke to discredit claims that surfaced in recent weeks which link the candidate and convicted cop killer Mumia Abu-Jamal.
The claims, which first began appearing via robocalls and on the Internet in recent weeks, state: "Radical activist Kathy Boockvar has ties to convicted cop killer Mumia Abu-Jamal."
The website where the claims appear, RadicalKathy.com, is run by the National Republican Congressional Committee. The website says it is "not authorized by any candidate or candidate's committee."
Incumbent Mike Fitzpatrick's campaign has remained silent on the issue, NewsWorks.org said. A call by Patch to Fitzpatrick's campaign manager has not yet been returned.
FactCheck.org, an independently funded website, confirmed that Boockvar's husband represented a witness to the 1982 murder of city police officer Daniel Faulkner in a case where the woman accused police of pressuring her to testify.
The National Republican Congressional Committee also has connected Boockvar's husband, Jordan Yeager, to a National Lawyers Guild event that honored the featured the convicted murder. Yeagar is a former member Executive Committee members of the National Lawyers Guild, according to online accounts.
While the claims on RadicalKathy.com are true, FactCheck reported, they "don't amount to much more than guilt by association."
Rendell, who was the city district attorney who helped prosecute Abu-Jamal, was quoted by PoliticsPa.com as saying the Republicans were pointing out the connection because "Kathy Boockvar associated with Mumia is going to scare the heck out of suburban voters."
"These false, personal attacks highlight everything that's wrong with Washington and politics today," Boockvar said in a statement released by her campaign. She also denounced Abu-Jamal.
Boockvar and Fitzpatrick are set to debate in the coming weeks.

PISCATAWAY, N.J. (October 15, 2013) – The Rutgers men's soccer team closed out non-conference play on Tuesday night at Yurcak Field dropping a 1-0 double overtime contest to Bucknell.
The Scarlet Knights fall to 5-8-1 overall and finish up non-conference action with a 3-5-1 mark. The Bison, who have not lost a road game all season, improved to 8-3-1 on the year.
Bucknell scored the golden goal in the second overtime in the 102nd minute of action. Connor Willings' throw-in reached Mayowa Alli 10 yards out in the center of the box, where he headed the ball into the back left of the Scarlet Knight net.
"Any team is going to dangerous on that," said head coach Dan Donigan of Bucknell's throw-in from about 22 yards out that resulted in the game winner. "They got excited every time they had a deep throw-in deep in our end because they knew it was going to be a chance for them. I don't think they had a whole lot of chances in the flow of the game outside of those opportunities."
The two squads were evenly matched throughout the game with the Bison holding just a slight edge in shots heading into overtime, 10-9, and ending the game outshooting Rutgers, 14-11. Both teams managed five corners apiece.
Leading scorer Mael Corboz (Green Brook, N.J.) and redshirt sophomore forward J.P. Correa (Montville, N.J.) led RU offensively with five shots apiece. Three of Corboz's attempts on the Bucknell goal were thwarted by Bison keeper Clarke Fox, who made four saves in the win.
Rutgers netminder David Greczek (Fairfield, N.J.) managed to stop four shots on goals.
Three games remain on RU's regular season slate, all in American Athletic Conference play. It will be Rutgers' Senior Day on Saturday when they host USF, the regular season home final against Temple on Wednesday, Oct. 23 and the regular season finale at UCF on Saturday, Nov. 2.
Saturday's Senior Day will air on RVision presented by AT&T on ScarletKnights.com with Danny Breslauer and Kyle Franco on the call.

Last week, as fans and fellow musicians around the world mourned the death of Van Cliburn, politicians also made their voices heard. At a memorial ceremony, words came from presidents Obama and George W. Bush as well as Russian president Vladimir Putin. In the flurry of press coverage, someone even tracked down Sergei Khrushchev, son of the Soviet premier.
Their presence was a reminder of the combustible mix of politics and culture that, during one heady week in April 1958, ignited Cliburn's career in the way that no pianist's career had ever been launched before. Or since.

Many of you know that the current site of Western Wake Farmers' Market, Carpenter Village on Morrisville-Carpenter Road, will one day be developed (WE ARE NOT IMMINENTLY THREATENED!). Two years ago we proactively began a search for a "Forever Home". We've vetted a number of potential sites in those two years, and in September we started discussions in earnest to relocate market to a permanent site in Morrisville.
Next week the Morrisville Town Council will consider an important step in the process of creating the ultimate, awesome site we all imagine. They will decide whether or not to permit staff to apply for a grant from the Rex Foundation. The grant is multi-faceted, but a key element of the plan is to relocate the WWFM tent market as a first step in the process of getting to the permanent structure. At the end of the day, if awarded, receiving the grant represents a commitment. A commitment to start down the path toward building the vision.
The WWFM board thinks that a permanent farmers market structure in Morrisville is a benefit for all of the current customers of the market, and for the Town of Morrisville. If you are a Morrisville resident and agree that a permanent farmers' market site and structure is a good investment for the Town to make, we would appreciate you letting the Council know that you support that investment.
You can reach the entire Council with one email to the following address: email@example.com
We appreciate you taking the time to express your support. It's important that you do so before the next council meeting on Tuesday, April 8th.

A new court caps a summer of new for the Milwaukee Bucks
Category: Bucks in the Community
In a place unique to Milwaukee, the Milwaukee Bucks took another step towards carving out their place in Milwaukee last night.
In a special ceremony at the most signifying piece of Milwaukee's skyline, the Milwaukee Art Museum, the Bucks unveiled a new court design. The design takes some cues from the famous Robert Indiana court design that helped the Bucks standout in the late 70s through most of the 80s. It's a simpler, cleaner take for a different era in the NBA.
But the event felt like a fitting cap to a summer that has seemed to be about a new identity for the Milwaukee Bucks.
Last year left a bad taste in everyone's mouth. Stories came out that the locker room was a toxic place, but it was hardly any more toxic than the public perception of the Bucks in Milwaukee. Even those who self-identify as Bucks fans seemed fed up with the organization and an apparent lack of direction. If the trade of Tobias Harris wasn't the proverbial nail in the coffin for many, the 28 games that came after and an embarrassing playoff sweep of double digit losses was.
And, for as often as they have been the butt of jokes and complaints lately, the Bucks are not an organization without awareness. They know about that Wisconsin sports teams logo that leaves them off in favor of a college team. They know attendance numbers at the BMOBC haven't been great in quite a long time. They knew that last spring wasn't good enough. A playoff appearance is something that can be sold, but it's a much more difficult sell if that playoff team can't be built on and isn't likable.
They entered this summer knowing they had work to do to win back popular support in Milwaukee and around the state of Wisconsin. So they went to work.
Most importantly, the roster has been cleansed. The new core, Larry Sanders, John Henson, Ersan Ilyasova, Brandon Knight and Giannis Antetokounmpo, is a group of players that are all relatively young and offer varying degrees of upside. The team seems to believe in the work ethic in each of them and has pinned hopes of future success on that group. They have brought in veterans to be positive influences and hopefully push these guys in the right direction.
But the Bucks have focused on smaller details as well. For the first time ever this year, Milwaukee will have a fan fest before the team's annual open practice. When the team had an introductory press conference for Caron Butler, they had it at a high school in his former hometown Racine, Racine Park. When the team announced Sanders' contract extension, they did it at a local Boys & Girls Club because that's a cause that's passionate to him and the community.
The grand unveiling Tuesday night was another step in this direction. Former broadcaster and recent Hall-of-Fame inductee Eddie Doucette was prominently involved as the Bucks looked to connect a successful and meaningful history to an uncertain future. Doucette was there for everything that was good about the Bucks at one time. He watched the construction of a championship team. He saw an extended run of success that spanned over multiple nuclei. When Doucette talks, there's some real weight to his words. I suppose that's the kind of thing that lands someone in the Hall-of-Fame.
He acknowledged that the Bucks have struggled since that run of success, but he spoke with great confidence about the journey the Bucks are about to embark on.
"These people are going to be players, folks," Doucette said while glancing at Sanders and Henson, seated in the front row of the event. "They are getting better all the time. Every night they go out there, I can guarantee one thing: You're going to see young players that give it their all. Because they know the people in Milwaukee give it their all every day."
Doucette continued on with his pitch to an audience of players, fans, employees, media members and everyone else in the museum, all pretty much hanging on his every word at this point.
"So my plea to you, in this short period of time, is to enjoy what you've got to look forward to in the years to come," he said. "Take time, get to know these young people, because they will get to know you if you allow that to happen. Be patient and think about the hope of developing another championship team. Not necessarily with the expectation that it has to happen this year. Because it won't happen this year; we have to be realistic. But it'll be good. And with your support, it's going to become even better."
Authentic was the word that kept coming to my mind when listening to Doucette pitch the 2013 version of his beloved Bucks. Maybe this team isn't going to be great right away, but he believes in the people building this thing. He believes they know what they are doing from a basketball perspective and he believes that they care about doing things right in Milwaukee and for Milwaukee.
For the first time in a long time, people in Milwaukee may start to believe that as well.

- Daybreak Doppler: Big One For Bucky Coming Up | PocketDoppler.com | September 26, 2013
I just want a new arena honestly.
Getting anything that involves politicians "honestly" might be difficult. ZING!
The new court does has a classy and enduring look, aspects the Bucks have not had much of in their gaudy marketing history and frankly their rosters throughout the 2000s.
The marketing folks for the team are doing an excellent job and the roster management moves seem oddly to be in tune with the overall marketing push. Fan-centric rebranding of the Bucks has occurred recently. Not that most moves for NBA franchises shouldn't be done with fans in mind, but it seems that the entire Bucks roster was constructed with fan-friendly players on purpose.
The Bucks could very well be successful in a few years mimicking what the pacers and spurs have done. Sure, Tim Duncan was a top pick 16 years ago but He isn't a top caliber star any more yet the spurs have been able to thrive outside the lottery.
Despite not having a lottery pick for the past 16 drafts, the Spurs have remained a perennial contender. They have done this via great coaching, and great roster management. The Spurs hit on several impressive late-round picks during the last 15 years:
57 Ginobli
28 Parker
26 Salmons
55 Scola
28 Udrih
28 Splitter
45 Dragic
And of course they make smart trades and free-agent moves.
During Hammond's stint with the Pistons, they appeared in two NBA finals and won 50+ games in seven consecutive seasons with only one core player that was a lottery pick for them, Rip Hamilton, who was good but not a top tier star:
Rasheed Wallace – acquired for little in a trade with the Hawks
Chauncy Billups – signed for 6 yrs 35 mil after a solid season in MN
Rip Hamilton – pick 7 1999
Ben Wallace – originally undrafted, obtained in a trade with ORL
Tayshaun Prince – pick 23 2002
Few teams try to take the Bucks or Pacers route. Many more try rebuilding through collapse. The truth is that the success rate for either method is about the same. That being said I like what the Bucks are doing to find their place in the Milwaukee community rather than just being an NBA team that happens to play in Milwaukee. I'm really buying into it.
I guess what it all boils down to is what we consider success to be. Is it realistic to expect the Bucks to win a title? Is just a deep playoff the most we can expect? The three teams you mentioned have had varying degrees of success.The Spurs have won titles but only with Duncan (or Robinson) I their primes. Parker and Ginobli were also aquired when the Spurs were light years ahead of everyone else in scouting foreign born players. Detroit one one title and although they only drafted Rip, Billups and Wallace were both high draft picks. Indiana hasn't won a title and based on the top heavy nature of the East, will be hard pressed to win one with their current roster.
I think what we can agree on is you need at least one star to win a title. How you aquire that star is debatable. Miami and L.A. can sign them as free agents. Milwaukee can't really compete in that market. Trading is an option, but Milwaukee has to be careful not to get Gary Paytoned in a deal like that. The Bucks best option is to draft a star. Of course there are stars to be had later in the draft, but a preponderance of the great players in the league were picked high in the lottery. I have no problem with tanking this year to improve the chances of the Bucks getting a star.
Success is kind of hard to define because the goal post keeps moving. However, after investing in tickets, shirts, hats, sox or even league pass, I would like at least a 50/50 chance they'll win that game. 60% even better.
As an observer, I could just not watch much for a year while the team tanks. As an owner/manager needing to build a new arena, in a weak economy, I can understand why tanking is just not an option.
I hope their effort to bring in some old friends and some new faces goes a long way to improving the excitement they can generate with the Milwaukee fan base.
Duncan's game was starting to decline the last year they won a title (2007), not that he wasn't and isn't still good but saying he was in his prime is statistically false. The spurs were a bounce of the ball away from winning the title this past year despite Duncan's advanced age. In the eyes of Spurs and Pacers fans both of their respective teams are successful.
Teams including the Bucks have been recruiting European players for decades now, the premise that SA landed Parker simply because other teams weren't looking internationally is false. San Antonio player personnel decisions continue to be superb in 2013. Small market teams must make excellent personnel decisions if they are to succeed.
Billups and Wallace may have been high draft picks but Detroit obtained them for little after their early stint in the league was a bit below expectations – Brandon Knight and OJ Mayo could prove to be similar acquisitions.
Here's hoping that Khris and Ekpe — maybe, just maybe — will be late bloomers, too, in their young ages.
I'm not sure what to think… cautiously optimistic, optimistically cautious?
It does seem like the Bucks did bring in a good group of guys, albeit an exceedingly large group that doesn't seem to have been put together with much strategic planning. Also, as I may have mentioned once or twice in the past, we still don't have a true point guard. Still, character counts, and to go along with it there is some real talent on this roster, even if it is mostly in potential.
I like what Eddie Doucette seemed to say about getting to know the players, giving them a real chance on and off the court, even embracing them if at all possible (I might be embellishing a bit, here). I really want to welcome these guys to Milwaukee, to take them to our hearts, to give them every support possible from the fans to be successful in basketball and in life. These are young guys, even the veterans being relatively young. Let's do our part as fans to help them, to meet them at least half way, toward a good relationship with the community and good success on the court.
I'm also will to give the Hammond/Kohl administration another opportunity, even though I'm really disappointed in not only their past performance, but also most of their current maneuvers. I wish the best for both of them as managers and as men, but they do have to come through for us fans later or sooner. I'm not giving them a pass, but a chance. (Please, maybe, consider, possibly: a couple of our overstock for a point guard.)
New court looks sweet. Now if we could gradually move our colors to green with some kind of combination of black/silver/white and away from green/red I would be extremely happy. Green/red is very hard to market and does cost the team a lot of money in potential sales. I'm a diehard and I'll wear Bucks gear all over but I usually stick to my shirt with the deer in the B jersey because its just green/white/silver. GO BUCKS!
Agree, Red is used to prominently in the current unis. I wouldn't mind keeping it as a less prominent accent.
Also the deer head alone without the background triangle and bucks name below it is a good move. I like teams with a sole illustration that acts as a logo – like the bulls. If you need to write the team name below the logo to recognize who it belongs to it is a weak logo.

Avanade will guide you through the assessment process in three separate steps.
ASSESS. The assessment consists of a series of questions covering 46 different areas of development designed to uncover the extent of your current capability.
The assessment can be done for a single project or an entire organisation and during its course will interview as many participants as possible covering all aspects of the development lifecycle from requirements-gathering to deployment and operation. The assessment is technology agnostic and will furnish you with a final report on the area capability ratings and a synopsis of those results taking into account the dynamics of your own organisation.
PLAN. Avanade can help you plan a roadmap and identify and prioritise those areas which are most important to you in terms of its current maturity and its impact on the business should it be improved.

MIGRATE. Moving to a new model of work while keeping projects in-flight is not straightforward. As well as taking into account application release plans you must also assess the capacity of the current development infrastructure and take your people into account. Some will embrace an improved environment while some won't recognise the need and resist attempts at doing what they perceive as more work for the same effect.
Avanade can help you perform a successful migration taking into account these aspects by bringing skills from all disciplines. Infrastructure architects to plan and implement a scalable development environment. Delivery management to implement process and procedure and Solution Development to help your people adapt to the benefits from the developers' perspective.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (AP) - An abandoned pressure cooker at a Bridgeport park near Long Island Sound prompted a response from the U.S. Coast Guard, forced the evacuation of nearby buildings, halted a Connecticut-to-Long Island ferry and brought in the State Police bomb squad.
The Connecticut Post reports that Bridgeport police were alerted at about 11 a.m. Thursday. A police spokesman says it "created some alarm."
Pressure cooker bombs loaded with shrapnel exploded near the Boston Marathon finish line in April, killing three people and injuring more than 260 others.
The State Police bomb squad blew up the pressure cooker, which turned out to be empty.
The U.S. Coast Guard established a 2,000-yard safe zone and two buildings at the nearby University of Bridgeport were evacuated.
The Bridgeport-Port Jefferson ferry was held at dock.

This golden wheat is turning into green as farmers are finishing up their harvest."The quality is really good, the test weight is good, protein's over the 14 mark so we're really happy," says Michael Schmitcke.Michael Schmitcke is busy running grain trucks back and forth from his field to the elevator 10 miles away, as his father and brother continue to run the combines."The weather is excellent for the garin harvest, but not so good for drivers."But he's glad to be busy. They started the harvest in their worst wheat fields, working their way toward the best. Now, they're wrapping up this year's spring wheat harvest, finishing with yields in the mid-60 bushels an acre."We were a little worried we didn't get the rain but we must have had just enough to get us there," says Schmitcke.He says they were fortunate that planting in late April worked out this year. While they did battle disease early on, because of a wet May, it turns out their gamble paid off."The ground was really cold, we weren't sure if it was time yet or not. But it seems the later the wheat, the thinner it got, so we were pretty lucky."And now, while it's hard work, they're ready to sit back and enjoy the harvest."It's the time of the year you wait for as a farmer when you harvest and put your grain in the bin. That's a good feeling," says Schmitcke. Once they wrap up with wheat, it's time to wait and watch their corn and sunflower fields continue to grow.

The mommy blogger who brought us the "baby mugging" has started a trend called "baby suiting!"
The new Instagram trend was started by Ilana Wiles who runs the blog "Mommy Shorts."
Take a look at babies turned businessmen!
Instagram uses post pictures under the hashtag #babysuiting feature infants in adult suits.
Wiles told the "Daily News" that originally she wanted to dress the babies up like characters in "Mad Men" but women's clothing didn't work.
She said the men's formal wear was hilarious, so she posted a photo and her fans followed suit.

Willkommen! Bienvenue! Welcome!
to 1930s Berlin. The mood is akin to dancing on a volcano; Berlin is partying on the edge of an abyss. Politically unstable and battered by the Great Depression, xenophobia and anti-Semitism are on the rise in Germany. The Nazis increase their political influence by adopting these latent tendencies. But in the years leading up to their takeover, people are partying like theres no tomorrow. They succeed in putting reality on hold. Leave your troubles outside! ... Here, life is beautiful
! Thats what the emcee of the Kit Kat Club tells his audience every evening, where theyve come to see the main attraction, the naïve and amoral singer Sally Bowles. This is where she meets the young American writer Cliff Bradshaw, who has come to Berlin to research a novel. He becomes involved with her. But the times do not seem right for the two to carry on a relationship. Though at first he flings himself with Sally into the hurly-burly of Berlin nightlife, he is gradually forced to watch as the Weimar Republic nears its demise, being eroded by the underground activities of the National Socialists, until finally he can no longer ignore the steadily worsening political situation around him. With the downfall of the Weimar Republic imminent, relations between Cliff and Sally break down as well. Cliff goes back to America; Sally decides to stay on in Germany, oblivious to a new social order in the making. Sally announces her lifes motto every evening at the Kit Kat Club: Life is a cabaret. Reality for her is merely a stage, and everything on it a game
With their musical Cabaret, premiering on Broadway in 1966, composer John Kander, songwriter Fred Ebb and bookwriter Joe Masteroff achieved an international breakthrough. The musical was based on the play I Am a Camera by John van Druten, which in turn was based on the novels Mr. Norris Changes Trains (1935) and Goodbye to Berlin (1939) by British-American writer Christopher Isherwood. Isherwood lived in Berlin from 1929 to 1933 working as a language teacher, and captured his experiences in these two semi-autobiographical novels. Kander, Ebb and Masteroff cleverly combine show biz and politics, lending musical expression to the decadence of life in the waning years of the Weimar Republic.
