Environmentally Damaging Electricity Trade
AbstractElectricity trade across regions is often considered welfare enhancing. We show in this paper that this could be reconsidered if environmental externalities are taken into account. We consider two cases where trade is beneficial, before accounting for environmental damages: first, when two regions with the same technology display some demand heterogeneity; second when one region endowed with hydropower arbitrages with its "thermal" neighbor. Our results show that under reasonable demand and supply elasticities, trade comes with an additional environmental cost. This calls for integrating environmental externalities into market reforms when redesigning the electricity sector. Two North American applications illustrate our results: trade between Pennsylvania and New York, and trade between hydro-rich Quebec and New York.

If I could marry a project…
It would be this one. Sit on It Detroit is everything.
Detroit lacks seating at bus stops. More than half of the bus stops in the city are without benches. Sit On It is an effort to fill this void by creating benches out of reclaimed wood from abandoned houses and businesses within the city.

Stop that Alabama bus!
My most recent bus read was the autobiography of OG Detroit activist, Grace Lee Boggs. Come to think of it, it was the bus read before last; I finished Home last week. (I'm currently experiencing some rather extreme Toni Morrison withdrawal and am still carrying it around in my bag.)
I digress.
Among the many things I learned when reading Ms. Boggs' book is that this amazing song exists.

The Bus Fam visits the Motor City (again)
Earlier this month, the four of us spent a week in Detroit (aka, my city-in-law), combining a work conference for me with a visit home (including a celebration of his childhood church's 75th anniversary) for Bus Nerd. Per usual, I spent much of the visit indulging my Rosa Parks obsession, which included dragging everyone (including my Gail, who had actually already been) on a pilgrimage to the recently* completed Rosa Parks Transit Center.
On paper, the RPTC is everything a bus chick could dream of, and in real life, it lives up …

According to this Free Press article (via: Garlin), the quality of DDOT's service continues to decline.
Fighting a losing battle with metastatic bone cancer, Joe Briscoe has one hope — a miraculous turn in his medical treatment.
But none of that matters, the 62-year-old Detroiter said, if he can't get to his appointments at St. John Hospital on time because of increasingly tardy buses.
"I sometimes have to wait more than two hours," Briscoe said during a downpour at his bus stop at Woodward and 7 Mile this week. "I'm missing appointments because the buses have gotten …

Bus art is cool, part II
Back in May, Bus Nerd's mama (aka my Gail) gave him a subscription to a Detroit city magazine for his birthday. (As you might already know, the man is rather partial to his hometown.) In last month's issue, there was a profile of an artist who makes replicas of old-school Detroit bus scrolls.
On the old busses and streetcars passengers learned of the various stops by way of signs on destination boxes [which] contained a continuous, two-sided canvas scroll with an alphabetized list of street names. The destination boxes were manually operated by the drivers and …

Back on the bus
We're back from a fun visit to Detroit. I must say, busing with a small child is good practice for riding an airplane with one. Bus Nerd and I are excellent at packing light (haven't checked a bag yet), and we know how to keep Chicklet entertained on rides.* Chicklet is used to sitting quietly in vehicles full of people and a pro at sleeping on the go. As a result of her training, she was an absolute angel during our travels, including the bus rides to and from the airport.

Teenage boy robbed at Maryland mall after Black Friday shopping trip
Anne Arundel County, MD, United States (4E) – Around five men took a 14-year-old boy's shopping bag early Friday morning after his visit at Arundel Mills mall in Anne Arundel County, Maryland.
Police reported that the boy just left the Bed Bath and Beyond store around 2:19 a.m. when a group of black males approached him in the parking lot.
One suspect punched the victim while another stole his bag before they all fled in the direction of the mall's Bass Pro Shops entrance.
According to the boy's description, the black men appeared to be between 17 to 21-year-old, wearing black North Face jackets and jeans.
Police failed to find the suspects after searching the area.
The boy, whose parents were informed about the incident, refused to be treated for his injury.
Arundel Mills welcomed shoppers at midnight Friday.

"I almost always feel inclined, when I happen to say anything to soldiers, to impress upon them in a few brief remarks the importance of success in this contest. It is not merely for to-day, but for all time to come that we should perpetuate for our children's children this great and free government, which we have enjoyed all our lives. I beg you to remember this, not merely for my sake, but for yours. I happen temporarily to occupy this big White House. I am a living witness that any one of your children may look to come here as my father's child has."

An easy choice for Obama?
Source: pollingreport.com
If you're running for office and want to make a pragmatic choice which one should you pick? So if someone picks the one with least support it; that cannot be a cynical calculated move, right? With some simple analysis there are reasons for Republicans to pick the third one. As Republican budget plans currently include tax cuts for the richest Americans and cuts in social programs designed to help the poorest Americans. As rich people are outnumber by poor people, Republicans cannot directly run on this. Democrats realizing that they do not want to lose on this one issue particularly in red states, often choose the most popular of the three positions. Democratic voters usually don't put this issue as a high priority. Republican politicians seem to take whatever position suits them, see Rick Perry realizing he needed more support from evangelicals. Or VA Governor Robert F. McDonnell either he is moderating his position or he allowed himself to misunderstood for 20 years for political benefit. Based on this there is only one conclusion I can draw: Republican politicians don't really care about this issue either. For many of them, the Legality of Abortion just another wedge issue to cause people to vote against their economic interests. This issue works perfectly as a wedge for Republics, because the people who are against them would not vote for a Pro-Choice Republican anyway. And if you threw-up in your mouth reading this, then you understand this issue perfectly.

As gas prices have been unusually high inventory of crude oil have also been rising.
Data on crude oil inventory is available here: http://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/hist/LeafHandler.ashx?n=PET&s=WCESTUS1&f=W
This combination of price increases and inventory increases at the same time defies tradition market explanations of supply and demand. According to Barak Obama, this points to market manipulation. Mr. Obama wants to set an oversight board to correct this issue. However I think it makes more sense to close all the loopholes leftover from the Eron era that allow for rampant speculation. According to Forbes speculation may be adding $23.39 to the price of a barrel of oil.
By the way, Iran's sanctions do not justify price increases as Saudi Arabia is covering the missing oil.

The party of fiscal responsibility is a title that the Republicans seceded during the Bush administration. Two recent issues put before the senate, both had popular support and both would have reduced the deficit in a small way (a petite 4 to 5 billion dollars a year each). First was eliminating $4 billion in oil subsidies. Yes, it is popular and was voted down mostly by Republicans. The second was the Buffet rule, it is popular, and it was voted down mostly by Republicans. Meanwhile Barack Obama continues to propose reducing the Federal budget and increasing taxes to balance the budget. And his almost certain opponent, Mitt Romney, has a secret plan to cut spending and cut taxes. So I guess Democrats are now the serious fiscal conservatives. Weird huh?

From 1981 in a paper called "Climate Impact of Increasing Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide" published in the journal Science. This very early paper on global warming was strongly predictive and projects delta+4C by 2100 ce (also in line with current projections). It also provides a very detailed explanation of how global temperature change was discovered and analyzed. Several gasses are examined not just CO2. As interesting from a math models perspective as from a climate science one. The who paper explains the part of the "global cooling" errors.

Oil subsidies are not popular and will be with us for at least 1 more year. I think the government should almost never subsidize an industry. When the government subsidizes it takes money from working people and spends it to pick winners and losers in the market. The exceptions for me are when short term market interests go against long term US interests, or when market results are socially unacceptable. And some of these subsidies individually make sense. Still for the most part I would like to see these hand outs phased out. The source article is from ethanol.org and is trying to make the argument that ethanol subsidies are small compared to oil subsidies. There is a list of 26 state oil subsidies, which I may write a future post on. If you want to end big oil subsidies too click here.

Wind Map of the Continental US. Wind is often listed along with solar as the cleanest energy sources. However, the wind doesn't always blow and 50-60% of electrical energy is baseline (always needed). Also as you can see many of the strongest lines are far from population centers. So using them will involve upgrading the power grid. There is no perfect solution to the energy crisis, but wind is renewable and domestic.

This Clothing Retailer Leaves European Suppliers Behind
Cristina is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
The European continent is losing ground as a production supplier for the Inditex SA Group, despite accounting for 70% of its sales in 2011, a drop that was replaced by the non-E.U. and Asian countries. A total of 40 countries produce for the Group, with Africa and the Americas also registering a slight increase compared to the previous year. However, Inditex prefers to assign more than 50% of its production to proximity producers, such as the clusters in Portugal and Morocco, and also works with Turkey, India, Bangladesh, China and Brazil - with the additional production audits that the Asian and South American continents incur.
This strategy is essential for the Spanish group, which professes a rapid, efficient and flexible answering capacity. From its logistics centers in Spain, the products get to the shops across Europe in 24 hours, and in 48 respectively, for the rest of the world. From the final client angle, the proposals of Inditex are said to travel from designers´ sketches to tangible products in the stores in two weeks, far beyond the nine-month industry average.
Inditex rigorous supply and response model definitely contributes to the Group´s stock performance. Since its debut in 2001 on the stock market, with a price of €14.7/share, Inditex has done extremely well, with a 52-week high of €91.10 this year and a 52-week low of €61.26.
In the middle of Spain's harsh economic downturn, Inditex has somehow gone against the stream: it basically almost tripled its value during these last four years, reaching now over €53.700 billion and overcoming its American competitor, GAP (NYSE: GPS), which follows a descending trend since 2010, from $148 to $17.11 billion at the end of last month, as well as a struggling decline in gross margins since 2007.
The Spanish retailer is present in 84 international markets and totals 5,618 shops worldwide. Its shop opening strategy follows a constant rhythm, of approximately 450 shops per year – compared to the 10-to-15 target of H&M - and seems to be the best advertising tactic also, placing shops in strategic points of the selected metropolises such as the one inaugurated on New York´s Fifth Avenue in April 2012. However, this shop-opening strategy strictly respects one rule: there is almost no opening in Spain, everything happens outside the country, since Spain, which accounts for 25% of the Group´s commercial activity, only gained 1% in sales in 2011. In order to spur sales at the national level, the Group announced that it will absorb the rise of VAT from 18% to 21% since September, in all its brands.
Inditex business model is focused on designing, producing and distributing designer clothing at an affordable price for a middle-income class. It has managed to segment the market extremely well : Zara and Massimo Dutti are obviously addressing a different segment than Pull&Bear or Bershka.
Retail apparel industry competition remains stiff, with company flexibility, market trends and pricing policy playing a central role to the rise or decline of the different competitors, as well as their profit margins. According to market evaluations, positioning in the trendy luxury segment, Abercrombie & Fitch (NYSE: ANF) reported a 67% gross profit margin for denim products of $89.50, while a lower price strategy based on the casual concept of Aeropostale (NYSE: ARO) bring a 35% profit margin.
Although these competitors are also doing excellent work in terms of clothing design style and quality, what Inditex has is a pioneering logistics and supporting technology, rapid answering capacity, good value for money, worldwide presence covering the northern as well as the southern hemisphere, producers´ loyalty philosophy and client attention being a central pillar - in fact, it registers one complaint per 64,619 clothe items on sale. It can be called a sixth commercial sense. Given the capricious nature of the stock markets, it´s somehow safer to know that the business and sales strategy of a company follows and responds to actual, market-based research, answering to, and not interfering with, clients´ needs, and transforming them in desires right away in the form of affordable and stylish cloth items.

RIP James Cagney | July 17, 1899 - March 30, 1986
He died Easter morning at his home during breakfast. James said something to the nurse in a mumble, and as he strained forward to hear what he said — which was obviously a joke — he winked, smiled, and died. His head dropped suddenly to his chest. He left us as he had lived, directly, gently, humorously.

Greenlight Fiction Book Group discusses The Book of Night Women by Marlon James
Led by Greenlight general manager Alexis, this book group discusses paperback fiction on the third Thursday of each month. For February, the group discusses The Book of Night Women by Marlon James. The novel is the story of Lilith, a woman born into slavery on a Jamaican sugar plantation at the end of the eighteenth century. Even at her birth, the slave women around her recognize a dark power that they - and she - will come to both revere and fear. The Night Women, as they call themselves, have long been plotting a slave revolt, and as Lilith comes of age they see her as the key to their plans. But when she begins to understand her own feelings, desires, and identity, Lilith starts to push at the edges of what is imaginable for the life of a slave woman, and risks becoming the conspiracy's weak link.

Chattanooga is likely overpaying $140,000 a year for the city's phone bill because of an AT&T contract that is two decades old, a city audit revealed.
City Auditor Stan Sewell briefed the City Council on Tuesday on the audit that showed the city was operating on a month-to-month contract with AT&T that charges twice the current rate for such services and that the city is paying almost $10,000 a year for phone lines that aren't being used.
Also in June 2013, the city's IT Department renewed a contract with AT&T, but used the old rates that are more than double what is typically charged. The decision was made without council approval, which is required.
Brent Goldberg, the city's deputy chief operating officer, told the council that such a mistake won't happen again because the mayor's office has taken steps to ensure the contract is bid on a regular basis. The city's purchasing department will now monitor the contracts, he said.
Also city officials plan to meet with AT&T to negotiate a new contract to eliminate the extra costs, but officials might eventually eliminate a contract with the phone company altogether. The city's IT Department is working on a new voice over IP system that will use the Internet instead of telephone lines. This means officials said that the city is considering whether to extend its contract with EPB, the city-owned utility company that already provides Internet services.
Joy Lukachick is the city government reporter for the Chattanooga Times Free Press Since 2009, she's covered breaking news, high-profile trials, stories of lost lives and of regained hope and done investigative work. Raised near the Bayou, Joy's hometown is along the outskirts of Baton Rouge, La. She has a bachelor's degree in mass communication from Louisiana State University.

The only way is to teach with love, which requires looking beyond what seems, and remembering we create with our judgements.
The three hardest tasks in the world are neither physical feats nor intellectual achievements, but moral acts to return love for hate, to include the excluded, and to say, I was wrong.
The water caresses in the glass, like love in the body. (L'eau caresse dans le verre, Comme l'amour dans le corps)
The wise man will love all others will desire.
The worst enemy is oneself, but I do not kill, because I love him.
There are many ways of breaking a heart. Stories were full of hearts broken by love, but what really broke a heart was taking away its dream - whatever that dream might be.
There are no great things, only small things with great love. Happy are those.
There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love.
There is no mystery, at least not the kind you want. In real life there are no fogbound moors or clues on matchbooks or fifth columnists waiting to be unmasked. it would be nice if here were, because then there would be solutions to things in life, but it doesn't always work that way. Everyone likes a good detective story. I went through my Hammett phase in college. I think the attraction is, in life our mysteries aren't exciting. You know They're just intractable and depressing and enervating. Like, why do we always hurt the ones we love. Where does the money go ...in a detective story, at least the universe makes sense. It was him. He did it. The natural order is disturbed, but the beauty of it is that it's restored again.
There is no reciprocity. Men love women, women love children, children love hamsters.
There is pleasure in the pathless woods, there is rapture in the lonely shore, there is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar I love not Man the less, but Nature more.
There is time for work. And there is time for love. That leaves no other time.
This bud of love, by summer's ripening breath, May prove a beauteous flower when next we meet.
This life is yours. Take the power to choose what you want to do and do it well. Take the power to love what you want in life and love it honestly. Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature. Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you. Take the power to make your life happy.
Those who dislike animals (and more specifically those who never had a pet) will never understand the complete joy a pet brings to a soul, and, the pet-less person will never truly understand the meaning of unconditional love.
Those who see the world through the lens of love are the true visionaries.
Through me you pass into the city of woe:
Time is Too slow for those who wait, Too swift for those who fear, Too long for those who grieve, Too short for those who rejoice, But for those who love Time is not.
To be in love Is to touch with a lighter hand. In yourself you stretch, you are well.
To love and be loved is the great happiness of existence.
To love is nothing. To be loved is something. To love and be loved is everything.
To love someone is to identify with them.
Today I begin to understand what love must be, if it exists.... When we are parted, we each feel the lack of the other half of ourselves. We are incomplete like a book in two volumes of which the first has been lost. That is what I imagine love to be incompleteness in absence.
Tomas did not realize at the time that metaphors are dangerous. Metaphors are not to be trifled with. A single metaphor can give birth to love.
Total self-esteem requires total and unconditional acceptance of yourself. You are a unique and worthy individual, regardless of your mistakes, defeats and failures, despite what others may think, say or feel about you or your behavior. If you truly accept and love yourself, you won't have a driving need for attention and approval. Self-esteem is a genuine love of self. Stop all adverse value judging of yourself. Stop accepting the adverse value judgments of others. Purge yourself of all condemnation, shame, blame, guilt & remorse.

Lee County Sheriff's Office conducted a drug roundup Friday morning and arrested 29 people on charges ranging from prescription drug distribution to manufacture of methamphetamines.
News Channel 11's Micah Smith road with Lee County Sheriff's deputies and has reported that only eight out of 37 people are still wanted on drug charges.
According to a LCSO news release, the roundup follows a 12-month investigation involving the Lee County Sheriff's Office, Lee County Commonwealth's Attorney's Office, Pennington Gap Police Department and members of the Southwest Virginia Drug Task Force resulted in the charges, most of which were presented to a Lee County Grand Jury earlier this week.
Lee County Sheriff Gary Parson s said this roundup is only the first round of indictments and said the investigation is ongoing.
"I know the public gets frustrated knowing that there are people they know are dealing drugs and seem to never get caught," Parsons said. "We, in law enforcement, do as well, but we have to put together a case that can be won in court and that takes time and manpower. I assure you we are doing everything possible to take dealers off the streets. Sooner or later they are going down."Copyright 2014 WJHL. All rights reserved.

According to physics literature Cavendish measured the Newtonian force without any doubt. I have never seen any text, in physics or anywhere else, doubting that Cavendish measured the Newtonian force. ((Except in my own writings.))
Occult does not exist
My questioning of the Cavendish experiment is based in my firm belief that occult does not exist in nature. My reasoning is very simple:
Occult does not exist therefore Cavendish did not measure the Newtonian force.
Force is not even occult
If we look at the Newtonian force closer we see that force is not really occult. The instantaneous action at a distance is one of the most successful seeds for commentary invented by Newton. Newton's disciples have been finding most ingenious ways to rationalize action-at-a-distance discreted about half a millenium ago. But force is not even occult. Force is a definition Newton made in order to derive ((Here I use derive in its original scholastic sense.)) Kepler's rule.
Force is a dormitive virtue
As a superfluous definition force always cancels when it comes time to make calculations. According to the strong scientific principle only terms used in the calculations exist as magnitudes the rest are dormitive virtues. In this sense force is a dormitive virtue which exists only to save Newton's authority.
The Force v. the Newtonian force
There are many similarities between The Force and the Newtonian force.
Wikipedia disambiguation page refers to The Force as "mystical energy in the Star Wars Universe." ((Disclaimer: I have never seen a Star Wars movie and I am not familiar with Star Wars Universe except that I just read the Wikipedia entry.))
Newtonian force can easily be described as "mystical energy in the universe."
The main entry defines The Force as "a binding, magical and ubiquitous power that is the object of the Jedi and Sith monastic orders."
Similarly, the Newtonian force is a binding, magical and ubiquitous power that is the object of the Newtonian Brotherhood.
Furthermore, "some think of The Force as a sentient entity that may be capable of intelligent activities, pervading and infusing the material universe as a sort of panentheistic god…"
As correctly identified by Huygens, Newton defined force to be Newton's Soul permeating the entire universe. Newton's Soul possesess "intelligent activities" since it couples to Newton's definition of intelligent matter.
Newton defined himself not as god but as Moses of Mechanics but had no objection that his disciples elevated him to be the "human closest to God." In other words, Newton is not panentheistic god, he is an Asymptotic God.
Physics is science Stars Wars is not
But wait, you say, there is a BIG difference. Physics is science. Newtonian force is a measurable magnitude in the experimental science of physics. What is The Force but a definition of George Lucas which does not exist except in the fictional Star Wars Universe.
Newtonian force exists only in the fictional Newtonian occult universe populated with intelligent matter. But, No. Physics is an experimental science and the Newtonian force has been measured zillions of times, starting with Cavendish in the 18th century.
Cavendish experiment again
Ok. Fine. Physics is an experimental science and physicists say that Cavendish measured the Newtonian force. But my own investigation of the Cavendish experiment suggests that he did not. Cavendish made 17 measurements during one year. According to my analysis Cavendish's data does not show that his pendulum moved according to the Newtonian force.
It should be very easy to show if Cavendish did or not did not measure the Newtonian force. In fact, it will be easy to prove that Cavendish measured The Force of Star Wars. And it would be as easy to prove that Cavendish measured Newton's Soul.
I would be grateful to anyone who helps me understand that Cavendish measured (or did not measure) the Newtonian force.
There is already a discussion going on at Physics Forum. Please join the discussion there or leave a comment here.
Many thanks.

Bird Group Wants Action On Feral Cats
November 10, 2011 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9 (UPI) — A U.S. bird conservancy group has called on mayors of the country's 50 largest cities to help stop the epidemic of feral cats that threatens bird populations.
In a letter, the American Bird Conservancy urged the mayors to support responsible pet ownership and to oppose Trap-Neuter-Release programs that promote the feeding of outdoor cats, a conservancy release said Wednesday.
The conservancy called cat overpopulation a human-caused tragedy that affects the health and well-being of cats, native wildlife and the public.
Even when well fed, the group said, outdoor cats kill hundreds of millions of wild birds and other animals each year in the United States, including endangered species.
The domestic cat is an extremely effective predator introduced by humans into an environment whose native species are ill-equipped to defend themselves, the conservancy said.
The conservancy suggests communities concerned about feral cats consider mandatory licensing programs, using the fees to fund programs to help find homes for unwanted pets and educate pet owners about keeping their cats indoors.

(UPDATE 2:36 p.m. Wednesday)—A 34-year-old Bel Air man was charged Tuesday after he allegedly pulled the fire alarm at Regal Cinemas in , fire marshals said.
When the man, later identified as David Walters, learned that the showing of he paid to see was a "closed caption" showing, he expressed displeasure to management at Regal, according to deputy state fire marshals.
Walters allegedly "became disruptive and argued with the theater manager," according to a release from the state fire marshal's office.
Management offered Walters a refund or tickets for a future showing, but he refused and returned to his seat, according to fire officials.
Once the movie came to a close, Walters "became belligerent and argumentative with management once again," fire officials said.
He then allegedly pulled the fire alarm in the lobby and left, according to the news release.
The fire alarm caused all movies to temporarily shut down and activated emergency lighting, according to deputy state fire marshal Oliver Alkire in an email. Managers told movie-goers it was a false alarm and didn't evacuate the building.
Several patrons were issued refunds due to the disturbance, Alkire wrote.
David Keith Walters, 34, of the 100 block of Royal Oaks Drive in Bel Air, was charged by criminal summons Tuesday with causing a false fire alarm.
Under Maryland law, intentionally pulling and causing a false fire alarm is a misdemeanor that carries a penalty of up to 5 years in jail and/or up to $5,000 in fines.

Micro-ISV Tip #3: When the going gets tough, the tough get virtual
I had occasion yesterday to interview Kevin Epstein, VMWare's Vice President for marketing at one of their developer seminars, and he had some interesting advice for micro-ISVs trying to manage how they test: go virtual.
"I would argue that VMWare is one of those critical pieces of software for a startup, precisely because it allows you to use the resources of a much larger company without actually deploying those physical resources," said Epstein.
Virtualization software lets you make something that looks, acts and breaks your app just like a real PC, only its all within a program. You define a new virtual machine, load the operating system, and treat it just as if it were a real pc, but its just a very large file that runs when you need it.
"If I'm a single guy in a garage, with two solid server machines, and I'm trying to develop a multi-tier app and test it against 10 clients, I don't have the physical resources to do that. But if I choose to deploy all those resources within a set of virtual machines, I could create that infrastructure within the confines of a single physical machine, and still have leftover workspace."
Besides saving hardware costs, using virtualization saves time: "Instead of developing something, testing something and finding it doesn't work and having to wipe the entire system and start over. Even if I backed it up, it's still several hours time." Epstein said. "With VMWare, I just hit reset, and I'm back to a clean state."
While there are other virtual machine (vm) packages out there, notably Microsoft's Virtual PC, VMWare's Workstation 5 ($189 USD per developer) has them beat hands down, especially if you are a micro-ISV. Here's a couple of typical micro-ISV problems VMWare solves with a set of virtual machines at your beck and call:
* Installer woes. You've built your app, only to have installer problems drive you crazy and cost you sales. You can open a running virtual Win XP PC, run the installer, see it breaking and reset in a matter of a few minutes.
* DLL Hell. Your app starts dying an ugly death and your bug list starts blossoming because someone else did a crappy job on their installer. Starting with a working vm, you run the offending party's trial app, see the error in their ways and create a patch for your program that fixes the problem.
* Testing your web based app or for that matter your web site. You develop a ASP app that breaks if and only if it runs on the next to last version of IIS and the user has last month's version of Firefox. You open up Workstation 5, start a vm server and a couple of different vm clients, all on the same box. You decide if they're isolated from your real network, or part of it.
What do you need to run Workstation 5? From my own experience, a virtual Windows XP PC runs as fast or faster than a physical PC on a notebook PC with a Intel® Pentium® M processor 750and 1GB of PC2700 DDR RAM.
The key factor is memory: "Good, high-speed RAM and lots of it", added Epstein. "With a lot of RAM, you can build things that will work faster and better in virtual space than in physical space."
You can download a 30-day trial of VMWare Workstation 5 from their site, http://vmware.com, but keep your $189 in your pocket for now; because the company has just started offering a much sweeter deal, especially for micro-ISVs. For $299 a year per developer, you can get a VMTN Subscription that gives you all of VMWare's products, including their virtualization servers, image file to vm and physical to vm tools which are way out of the budget for most micro-ISVs.
The extra hundred bucks means you can do things for development and testing purposes like create a set of vms with your choice of automated testing apps and automate the automation of them, make – or have your customer make and send you on a dvd – a vm of their exact physical pc for you to test and more.
"It's the same thing as if you had a room full of physical machines, with someone walking around, turning one on, starting tests, waiting for results to compile and stopping tests. But instead of physically turning them on, the API is doing all the work for you." Epstein added.

All posts tagged Whole9
It's user-friendly, available on kindle and in print and they make FREE downloads available on their website that make it easy for anyone to follow their Whole30 program. I've been paleo for almost two years now, with a few exceptions here and there …wine, tequila, corn tortillas, and paleoish sweets. Reading this inspired me to go strict and do a whole30. I'll post about this when I'm done.

The Quick Fix
"5 minutes on this machine is like working out for 30 minutes!", I overheard someone say last week. My son and I looked at each other and I said to him, " You know what's like working out for 30 minutes?" He replied, " Working out for 30 minutes!"
Quick fixes are everywhere you turn. There are pills, diets, surgery and on and on. Well I'm going to let you in on a health and fitness secret. Now if I told you to cover your screen and not tell anyone, that this was top-secret and I'm only charging you 5 installments of $19.95 for this information and for the next 10 minutes I'll throw in some super secret fat melting pills developed by NASA scientists for a secret mission to Mars…well, you'd already be entering your credit card information. however, pay no attention to my advice because it's based on proven science and results and I'm giving it away for free. THERE ARE NO SHORT CUTS OR QUICK FIXES. You get out what you put in.
Here are 5 simple truths:
1. It does really start with food (Insert credit to WHOLE9 here). See the paleo way of eating. It works, period.
2. Exercise. Move around a lot at a normal pace. Lift heavy things. Get some intense interval training or sprinting.
3. Stress. Get proper rest. Manage stress through exercise and meditation or yoga. Adopt a positive mental attitude.
4. All of the above are LIFESTYLE CHANGES. You can't expect to put in temporary effort and get permanent results.
5. If you put as much effort into the above that you do trying to find a way around them then you will achieve the results that you want.
*This is the truth and the whole truth and nothing but the truth!

Thinking of a New Year's Resolution? Some "Paleo" Tough Love
So you want to go paleo? What does that mean exactly? In my workshops I teach the three pillars of paleo -
Sleep/Stress Management
Going paleo is about doing all three. Have an excuse as to why you cannot attempt to commit to all of these areas? Stop reading here. There are plenty of diet plans out there where you can eat processed, pre-packaged foods and feel hungry and generally not satisfied all the time. You'll also want to join your local globo gym and hit that exercise machine until your cortisol levels are through the roof. Get a month to month membership because you'll be done by March. If being hungry, not enjoying your food (Don't kid yourself, that crap in a box sucks.), feeling tired all the time in order to see numbers on a scale is your idea of a Happy New Year, then please do not read my articles. There are people out there waiting to take your money sucker! See you back here this time next year. Want to improve body composition, feel better, be stronger, look better naked and have a better sex life? Sound too good to be true? Read on.
Still with me? Good! Here is the low down.
Nutrition – Eat a paleo diet. It will give you consistent energy levels, improve body composition, reduce inflammation and generally make you healthier. This means:
- No Grains
- No Dairy
- No Legumes (including peanuts)
- No Added Sugar
- No Processed Foods
If you're asking questions like "So can I have quinoa?" or "I can't have peanuts but what about peanut butter?" then please get your head out of your ass and use some common sense.
Please see my article on "the paleo diet simplified" for more info. I recommend reading The Paleo Solution by Robb Wolf so that you can understand the science behind all of this. If you understand the why then you will be more likely to stick with it. Not a big reader? Check out a Balanced Bites workshop with Diane to get the science behind the nutrition. Or contact me to schedule a workshop or phone consult. You may fall into the I don't want to know the science stuff yet but am committed to trying it out to see if it works. If that sounds like you then check out Whole9. Dallas and Melissa have a program called the Whole 30 that is a "just do it" program. It gives you the how and leaves the sciency stuff to those more interested in that. I applaud their requirement of 100% commitment. That's just what it takes to get started!
Get functionally fit. What is functionally fit? Check out this guest post from Clifton Harski. I suggest checking out your local crossfit. Make sure that your trainers know what they are doing. A level one crossfit certification is meaningless. If you have a grand to blow you can get one. That being said, there are lot's of great crossfit trainers out there that have a vast amount of knowledge. Talk to their clients or ask for references. Do they have any other certifications? What is their background? If you have more than one to choose from in your area, visit several. See which one you like best. Don't let distance be the deciding factor. Other options are locating an RKC trainer in your area or attending a MovNat workshop. You may also be fortunate enough to live near a functional fitness gym that is a former crossfit affiliate or that has great programming such as Gym Jones, Catalyst Athletics or NorCal Strength and Conditioning.
Sleep/Stress Management
Sleep 8 hours a night if possible in a dark room.
Read "Don't sweat the small stuff."
Spend 10 minutes a day of quiet time.

In the Japanese animated film, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, the protagonist explores a post-apocalyptic world riding on a jet-powered glider called a Möwe. When the movie was first released in 1984, a vehicle like that seemed like it could only exist in science fiction, but today one artist is determined to make it a reality. Kazuhiko Hachiya has spent the past decade designing and testing his own single-person glider and recently unveiled a full-sized model with a working jet engine. Read More
Strange as it may seem, in the last few years Japan has been home to a fad where cute girls dressed up as french maids star in J-POP, comics, animation, and video games. The distinctive costume has grown so popular that there's a number of so-called maid cafés in Tokyo's geeky Akihabara district where anyone can enjoy the thrills of being served by a horde of hostesses in full outfit. That – to say nothing of Japan's endless fascination with humanoid robots – probably explains Pre-made Me, the latest creation by well-known Japanese roboticist Dr. GIY. Read More

You can also use iPADock to charge up your iPods, as it's compatible with the Touch, Nano, and Classic models as well. Read More

The City of Madisonville is one step closer to the development of the 265 acre Mahr Park.
Committee members chose Lose and Associates as their first selection to be park planners of the land located just off Nebo Road across from Calhoun's Farm and Pet store.
The city plans to make it a passive park with walking and bike trails.
The committee says they also plan to pay tribute to the previous owner, Glema Mahr because of all she did for the local community.
"We're talking about a park that was a dream for the family that owned the farm and what they saw as the use for the park and we thought Lose and Associates really represented, thinking outside the box, some of the ideas that we were looking for to share Miss Mahr's dream," said Mike Franklin, City Administrator.
The Park Committee plans to hold public forums early next year to find out what residents would like to see at the park.

Located in the Paalmerah suburb of Jambi it has 73 flights departing per week for short haul destinations and 42 medium sized aircraft departing each week. This airport is named after Sultan Thaha, the last Sultan of Jambi.
In colonial times Jambi Airport was built by the Dutch and Japanese by the name of Airport Paalmerah.

News and Events Details
Over twenty-five students attended UW-Superior's Mock Trial team welcoming sessions the second week of the semester. Veteran captains Jeff Anderson, Kelsey German, Andy Hanson and Jordin Gegare coordinated the sessions. Newcomer Mock Trialers elected Allison Marble and Brandon Engblom as the final two captains of the team for 2013-2014.
Mock Trial is an academic, forensic, and competitive activity that allows students to engage in active learning about legal cases. Students engage in critical thinking, case development, strategy planning, argumentation, presentation and collaborative team skills during the full academic year. They present in front of practicing judges and attorneys to receive ongoing and professional feedback on their skills. Mockers meet a minimum of five hours per week for regular practice during the entire academic year. During tournament weeks, they practice more.
UW-Superior has generated regional and national award winning Mock Trial teams for the past ten years straight.
This year's AMTA national legal case involves the State of Midlands vs. Witt Bowman, a criminal case. On August 30, 2012, a robbery occurred at RacheterWorld (pronounced ROCK-ter) in Midlands. Following the robbery, a chase ensued, and former police officer and current RacheterWorld security guard Winston Thomas was struck by the front car of the "Tunnel of Terror" ride. Thomas suffered serious injuries and went into a coma, in which he remains on the date of trial. The robber whomThomas was chasing through the park escaped and remains at large, his whereabouts unknown. Police, however, have arrested Whit Bowman, a park employee whom they believe took part in the commission of the crime. Bowman faces multiple charges of robbery and theft by deception related to the August 30 incident and related alleged criminal activities. Is Bowman guilty of the offenses of robbery and theft by deception or is just a convenient patsy for the State of Midlands? This case will explore this question through provocative argument and intriguing witnesses.
UW-Superior is sending three squads to compete at the University of Minnesota UMNUMB Invitational the weekend of October 11-13, 2013. This leading invitational will be followed by tournaments at Macalester, St. Olaf, St. Thomas and potentially Loras. Regionals will be held at Macalester the second weekend in February 2014.
The campus will host the Durst Mock Trial Invitational (in honor of former coach Attorney Mike Durst) in Swenson Hall the weekend of December 6-8. The entire campus and community is invited to attend one-four rounds of competition to observe Mock Trial in action. Schedule details will be posted in November. Over twenty community legal practitioners will be judging the event as collaborative educators. Over twenty teams from around the nation will be competing at the Durst Invitational.
Team members for 2013-2014 include Jeff Anderson, Kelsey German, Andy Hanson, Jordin Gegare, Allison Marble, Brandon Engblom, Cody Chaffee, Kyle Johnson, Meagan Guptill, Mia Pikkala, Taylor Tengwall, Alex Rafael, Madeline Smith, Matt Munkelwitz, Yer Vang, Austin Danula, Cassy Foltz Albertson, Emmanual Tucker, Jr., Jessa McLeod, Jessica Schubring, Randy Bender and Turner Tomcyzk. These Mockers represent many majors and minors.
The UW-Superior team is coached by Dr. Maria Stalzer Wyant Cuzzo (Legal Studies) and practicing attorneys Mark Fruehauf, Julie Benfield and Mary Russell. Benfield and Russell are alumni of the UW-Superior Legal Studies program. All of the coaches are experienced Mock Trialers themselves and bring a cumulative twenty years of experience to the activity. The team is administratively supported by Margaret Johnson of HBJD.
For more information about Mock Trial, contact Maria Cuzzo at email@example.com.
