Day 9: Chest & Back (63 minutes) - I enjoy this workout. I still get annoyed by the instructor, but now just tune her out and focus on the work. Last week I felt a bit sore the next day, so I'm expecting that again. I guess the reason this workout is good is because you do the basic exercises with enough reps and then enough sets that it breaks down the muscle to be effective. I also use the exercise ball on this one, and I like using the ball!
I also did some other lunges, leg lifts, bicep curls, triceps kickbacks, and plank holds just to round it all out.
I have learned a lesson here, though, yet again! I didn't have time in the morning to do my workout, so I planned to do it at lunchtime at work. I kept getting interrupted, and the exercise was pushed and pushed. I finally got it all done about 6 P.M. - still at work - but it was tough to squeeze it in. I have to remember to just wake up super early if I want to get my exercise in. Otherwise, I find that it's too hard for me to get it done. I almost skipped the workout because of the stress of trying to squeeze it in, but I felt committed in doing it, thank goodness!
Day 8: Cardio (54 minutes) - Yay! The second week has begun!! I was thinking of adding something to this workout, but once I finished this morning, I was already late for work, so nothing additional but my usual walking. The workout was fine. I am doing mainly the advanced versions of the exercises and get a good sweat going. I think I'll add another workout when it comes around again on Sunday.
I have to also state here that I'm extremely happy that I lost one pound this week. I have been at the same weight for almost three months. It was the worst plateau I've ever experienced. I know it's because of my surgery and my body getting adjusted to everything, but I can honestly say that by adding this exercise program to my list of things to do, one pound came off. Yay! I am this much closer to my goal weight. Hooray!!!
Day 7: XTF Arms (49 minutes) - This, as entitled, is all about the arms. The workout was OK. Simple, but effective. I don't know why this workout didn't grab me, though. There's just something lacking. Anyway, I do feel my arms got a good workout. I think that I may jump to the more advanced week tomorrow rather than repeating this same grouping again. Or, maybe I'll do this program as prescribed, but add other workouts to it. Hmm... I'm not sure. I just don't feel I'm doing all I can.
I did the usual Tuesday strength training exercises I have been doing, including sit ups, squats, and plank holding. I was really happy that my stomach felt a bit sore AND a bit hard. Hooray!!!!
Day 6: Hard Core & Stretch (54 + 26 minutes) - Extremely nice easy day. The ab workout was good for sure, but not that taxing really, even if it was 54 minutes long. I'm sure I'll be sore tomorrow, but certainly didn't have a problem working the advanced routine. The stretch was ok. There are other programs which have better stretch workouts, so I may change up both the abs and stretch DVD's from this program with others I have used. I'll see, though. I don't want to go too far off the deep end...
I also got a really nice power walk in today - more than my usual. I made sure to wear a tee shirt so that my shoulders wouldn't get any more burned (!), but did wear shorts hoping to get some sun on these white legs of mine. It's hard to believe I live next to the ocean when it comes to my tanning abilities. Ha, ha! I'm happy that I finally feel comfortable wearing shorts anyway, so I guess the white legs aren't so bad.
Day 5: Cardio (54 minutes) - OK, back to the first workout again. I tried it with the music on, but didn't really get into the techno music. I did like the workout better this time, though. I was able to work harder than the first time and had fun. The 54 minutes went by pretty quickly. Yay!!
I spent a lot of the day at the garden. I got a sunburn, though, unfortunately. It was difficult doing anything with my hand in a soft cast, but I got by. I can imagine I will have an odd tan line going pretty soon!

You must earn 10,000 points to post other members' whiteboard
Thanks for the congrats on the million points!
Just wanted to say hi...been awhile since we communicated. Had a mild stroke after our last communication, been going to PT & OT therapy recovering. How is it in Billings?
Hey gas buddy, let me give you A BIG CONGRATS on your busting into the ONE MILLION CLUB in points!! Keep up the good work. David...........QQ
Perhaps you should look at today's posting of prices then. Logan Ln and Sioux Ln being the exceptions, as they are on the opposite side of the road and ones I can submit complete updates for on my way home from work.
Sorry, but I don't recall saying that specifically, but would be happy to go through my sent mail to you, and confirm or refute that. When time permits, I certainly can. Lately, a temporary life adjustment has removed the additional time, and that is the extent I am going to go to defend it.
Perhaps you should focus more on your price submission accuracy that following my life so closely.
You stated that you get up early enough to post ALL of the prices at the stations you see. Lately, that statement has proven to be completely false. The only prices you seem to post are those on the station marquee.
Thanks for the comments. We're humans and make mistakes, wasn't intentional, been on this site a LONG time to make it better for all members that use it, including myself. Thanks again, I appreciate them.
Thanks for the Birthday wish.
Today is Warren's birthday....Itsajeepthing........stop by & wish him a Happy Birthday.........spread the word.........
Yeah, I know. One day away from pumps in Yellowstone, and there goes the consecutive days. I think there was one other day in there somewhere too (closer to the 300-day mark) that I was at the ranch and didn't leave the property for the weekend. It is a good 15-20 miles to gas from there.

News articles on north america
Mongabay.com news articles on north america in blog format. Updated regularly.
(06/25/2013) Five years after being elected president and six months after winning a second term, President Obama today gave his first speech devoted solely to climate change and announced several executive actions to begin weaning the United States (historically the largest emitter of greenhouse gases) off fossil fuels. At Georgetown University today, Obama stated that his administration would expand renewable energy projects on federal lands, raise energy efficiency standards on appliances, and, most importantly, limit carbon pollution from both existing and new power plants, which represent about 40 percent of the U.S.'s emissions. Obama also noted that the U.S. would spearhead global efforts to combat climate change which is pushing sea levels higher, melting glaciers and sea ice, exacerbating fires, imperiling species, and worsening extreme weather worldwide.
NASA image shows nearly ice-free Alaska as temps top 96 degrees
(06/24/2013) After a colder-than-average spring, Alaska is suffering a sudden and record-breaking heatwave. Temperatures on Monday, June 17th hit a stunning 96 degrees Fahrenheit (35 degrees Celsius) in Talkeetna, Alaska, just below the state's highest temperature ever record of 98 degrees Fahrenheit in 1969. On the same day, NASA's Terra Satellite's Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) took a rare image of a cloud-free Alaska.
Flying rainbows: the scarlet macaw returns to Mexico
(06/11/2013) On April 21, 2013, the first flock of scarlet macaws (of many more to come) was released into the jungles of Aluxes Ecopark, nearby classified World Heritage Site Palenque National Park, as a part of a massive reintroduction project to restore the popular and culturally-significant bird to the well preserved rainforests of Palenque and the rest of its southern Mexico homeland—where the species has been extinct for close to 70 years.
Southern U.S. logging soars to meet foreign biofuel demand
(06/06/2013) In order to meet the European Union's goal of 20% renewables by 2020, some European utility companies are moving away from coal and replacing it with wood pellet fuel. The idea is simple: trees will regrow and recapture the carbon released in the burning of wood pellets, making the process supposedly carbon-neutral. But just like other simple ideas, it misses out important details that can turn it on its head.
Canadian province cancels tar sands pipeline due to environmental impact
(06/04/2013) Efforts to expand production from the Alberta tar sands suffered a significant setback on Friday when the provincial government of British Columbia rejected a pipeline project because of environmental shortcomings. In a strongly worded statement, the government of the province said it was not satisfied with the pipeline company's oil spill response plans.
Plants re-grow after five centuries under the ice
(05/27/2013) While monitoring the retreat of the Teardrop Glacier in the Canadian Arctic, scientists have found that recently unfrozen plants, some of which had been under ice since the reign of Henry VIII, were capable of new growth.
New prehistoric animal named after Johnny Depp due to its 'scissorhands'
(05/19/2013) Half a billion years after an arthropod with long triple claws roamed the shallow Cambrian seas, scientists have named it after Hollywood movie actor, Johnny Depp: Kooteninchela deppi. Depp, known for his versatility as an actor, played Edward Scissorhands—an artificial man with long scissors for hands—in a popular 1990 film.
Canadian government drops over $16 million on advertising its tar sands
(05/16/2013) The Canadian government has nearly doubled its advertising spending to promote the Alberta tar sands in an aggressive new lobbying push ahead of Thursday's visit to New York by the prime minister, Stephen Harper. The Harper government has increased its advertising spending on the Alberta tar sands to $16.5m from $9m a year ago.
Common moth can hear higher frequencies than any other animal on Earth
(05/09/2013) A common little moth turns out to have the best ears in the animal kingdom. According to a new study in Biology Letters, the greater wax moth (Galleria mellonella) is capable of hearing frequencies up to 300,000 hertz (300kHz), which is 15 times the frequency humans can hear at their prime, around 20 kHz.
Featured video: saving sea turtles in Mexico's Magdalena Bay
(05/09/2013) A new short film, Viva la tortuga documents the struggle to save loggerhead and green sea turtles in Magdalena Bay, Mexico. Once a region for a massive sea turtle meat market, the turtles now face a new threat: bycatch. Loggerhead sea turtles are drowning in bottom-set gillnets, unable to escape from the nets once entangled. The issue has even raises threats of trade embargoes from the U.S.
U.S. loses nearly a third of its honey bees this season
(05/09/2013) Nearly a third of managed honeybee colonies in America died out or disappeared over the winter, an annual survey found on Wednesday. The decline—which was far worse than the winter before—threatens the survival of some bee colonies. The heavy losses of pollinators also threatens the country's food supply, researchers said. The US Department of Agriculture has estimated that honeybees contribute some $20bn to the economy every year.
Featured video: How climate change is messing with the jetstream
(05/08/2013) Weather patterns around the globe are getting weirder and weirder: heat waves and record snow storms in Spring, blasts of Arctic air followed by sudden summer, record deluges and then drought.
Uranium mine at edge of Grand Canyon National Park approved
(05/08/2013) Uranium mining on the doorstep of the Grand Canyon national park is set to go ahead in 2015 despite a ban imposed last year by Barack Obama. Energy Fuels Resources has been given federal approval to reopen its old Canyon Mine, located six miles south of the canyon's popular South Rim entrance, that attracts nearly 5 million visitors a year.
Ten U.S. cities pledge to kick fossil fuel investments to the curb
(05/01/2013) The cities of San Francisco and Seattle have pulled their money out of fossil fuel companies, taking a climate divestment campaign from college campuses to local government. The campaign group 350.org said on Thursday it had won commitments from a total of 10 cities and towns to divest from 200 of leading fossil fuel companies.
Citizen group finds 30 toxic chemicals in air following tar sands oil spill in Arkansas
(04/30/2013) Independent air samples by locals have yielded "a soup of toxic chemicals" in Mayflower, Arkansas where an Exxon Mobil pipeline burst on March 29th spilling some 5,000 barrels of tar sands oil, known as bitumen. Chemicals detected included several linked to cancer, reproductive problems, and neurological impacts such as benzene and ethylbenzene. Air samples were taken by community leader and University of Central Arkansas student April Lane a day after the spill. However, the Environment Protection Agency (EPA)'s and Exxon Mobil's air samples have yielded chemical levels below harm except in the direct clean-up area, according to the Arkansas Department of Health (ADH).
Obama Administration to propose stripping protection from all gray wolves
(04/29/2013) The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) is proposing to end protection for all gray wolves (Canis lupus) in the lower 48 states, save for a small population of Mexican wolves in New Mexico, reports the Los Angeles Times. The proposal comes two years after wolves were removed from the Endangered Species Act (ESA) in western states by a legislative rider on a budget bill, and soon after in the midwest. Since then hunting and trapping has killed over 1,500 wolves in these two regions.
The Crossley ID Guide: Raptors - book review
(04/22/2013) Richard Crossley, Jerry Liguori, and Brian Sullivan have produced a unique and much needed bird book in The Crossley ID Guide: Raptors. The Crossley ID Guide: Raptors is a book you study at home so you can easily recognize North American raptors.
Last 30 years were the warmest in the last 1,400 years
(04/21/2013) From 1971 to 2000, the world's land areas were the warmest they have been in at least 1,400 years, according to a new study in Nature Geoscience. The massive new study, involving 80 researchers from around the world with the Past Global Changes (PAGES) group, is the first to look at continental temperature changes over two thousand years, providing insights into regional climatic changes from the Roman Empire to the modern day. According to the data, Earth's land masses were generally cooling until anthropogenic climate change reversed the long-term pattern in the late-19th Century.
How many animals do we need to keep extinction at bay?
(04/15/2013) How many animal individuals are needed to ensure a species isn't doomed to extinction even with our best conservation efforts? While no one knows exactly, scientists have created complex models to attempt an answer. They call this important threshold the "minimum viable population" and have spilled plenty of ink trying to decipher estimates, many of which fall in the thousands. However, a new study in Conservation Biology shows that some long-lived animals may not need so many individuals to retain a stable population.
International Paper commits to working with longtime foe to protect endangered forests
(04/10/2013) In another sign that the global paper industry may be steering toward more sustainable practices following years of bruising activist campaigns and pressure from buyers, International Paper (IP) has committed to identifying and protecting endangered forests and high conservation value areas in the southern U.S. The company, which is the world's largest paper maker, will be partnering with its tenacious NGO critic, the Dogwood Alliance, in order to map out forests in the region and, furthermore, move away from converting natural forests into pine plantations.
Greener neighborhoods have less violent crime
(04/04/2013) Turn your neighborhood green and it may prevent violent crime in the long run, according to a new study in Landscape and Urban Planning, which found that violent crimes (assaults, robberies, and burglaries) occurred less often in greener areas of Philadelphia. The connection between greener neighborhoods and less violent crime even stood up after researchers accounted for education, poverty, and population levels.
Tar sands oil spill: ruptured pipe pours 200,000 gallons of oil into suburban neighborhood (photos)
(04/04/2013) Last Saturday, an oil pipeline carrying tar sands oil from Canada ruptured in Mayflower, Arkansas spilling between 3,500-5,000 barrels of crude (at most 210,000 gallons) into neighborhood streets and lawns. Families from 22 homes have been evacuated while clean-up crews have scrambled to contain the spill. ExxonMobil, which runs the 65-year-old Pegasus pipeline, has stated it will pay for any damage, however critics say the oil spill is more evidence that the Obama Administration should turn down the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline.
U.S. Republican voters want action on climate change
(04/03/2013) A new poll by the Center for Climate Change Communication (4C) at George Mason University finds that a majority of U.S. citizens who identify as Republicans or Republican-leaning independents want the government to do more to tackles climate change. Sixty-two percent of those polled said that the U.S. government "absolutely should" or "probably should" takes steps to address climate change. This goes against the views of many Republican congressmen—as well as the party platform—who largely oppose action on climate change.
Common pesticides disrupt brain functioning in bees
(03/27/2013) Exposure to commonly used pesticides directly disrupts brain functioning in bees, according to new research in Nature. While the study is the first to record that popular pesticides directly injure bee brain physiology, it adds to a slew of recent studies showing that pesticides, especially neonicotinoids, are capable of devastating bee hives and may be, at least, partly responsible for on-going Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD).
Solar Photovoltaic Projects: In the Mainstream Power Market - book review
(03/11/2013) Solar Photovoltaic Projects: In the Mainstream Power Market, written by renewables energy pioneer Philip Wolfe, is an excellent introduction to the solar photovoltaic project development and power markets sector.
New York Times slashes environmental coverage
(03/05/2013) On Friday at 5 PM the New York Times announced it was shutting down it Green blog, which highlighted diverse stories online, from energy to endangered species to climate change. The loss of the New York Times environment blog follows shortly after the paper announced it was dismantling its environment desk and moving all of the reporters to other beats.
Over 35,000 march on Washington demanding climate action and rejection of Canada's 'carbon bomb'
(02/18/2013) Yesterday over 35,000 people rallied in Washington D.C. for urgent action on climate change, which, according to organizers, was the largest climate march in U.S. history. Activists called on the Obama Administration to do much more to tackle climate change, including rejecting the Keystone XL Pipeline, which would bring carbon-heavy tar sands oil from Canada through the U.S. to a world market.
Genetics study claims to prove existence of Bigfoot
(02/13/2013) A new study purporting to uncover DNA evidence for Bigfoot has been published today in DeNovo Scientific Journal. While Bigfoot-enthusiasts have long argued that the cryptic monster is an unidentified ape species, the new study says their genetic evidence shows the Sasquatch is in fact a hybrid of modern human females mating with an unidentified primate species 13,000 years ago. The only problem: the journal in which the study is published—DeNovo Scientific Journal—appears to have been created recently with the sole purpose to publish this study.
Obama connects climate science and policy in State of the Union
(02/13/2013) After several years of silence on climate change, U.S. President Barack Obama has begun speaking out following his re-election last November. The President surprised many by giving climate change a central role in his inauguration speech last month, and he followed-up in his State of the Union speech last night when he called on congress to "pursue a bipartisan, market-based solution to climate change," but added that the administration would take action itself if congress failed.
Over 1,500 wolves killed in the contiguous U.S. since hunting legalized
(02/06/2013) Hunters and trappers have killed approximately 1,530 wolves over the last 18 months in the contiguous U.S., which excludes Alaska. After being protected under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) for 38 years, gray wolves (Canis lupus) were stripped of their protected states in 2011 by a legislative rider (the only animal to ever be removed in this way). Hunting and trapping first began in Montana and Idaho and has since opened in Wyoming, Minnesota, and Wisconsin.
U.S. proposes to list wolverine under Endangered Species Act
(02/05/2013) Arguably one of the toughest animals on Earth, the wolverine (Gulo gulo) may soon find itself protected under the U.S.'s Endangered Species Act (ESA) as climate change melts away its preferred habitat. Last week, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) announced it was proposing to place the world's largest terrestrial mustelid on the list. Only 250-300 wolverines are believed to survive in the contiguous U.S.
Global warming - 56 million years ago
(01/23/2013) Sandy, Irene, Katrina... Hurricanes are fast becoming household names and have many people worried over the connection between extreme weather and the amount of greenhouse gases people are pumping into the atmosphere. No one can predict for sure what will happen decades or centuries from now as such gas concentrations increase. But scientists have a pretty good picture of what did happen in the past; greenhouses gases were released into the atmosphere in massive amounts at least once before—around 56 million years ago.
Obama: 'We will respond to the threat of climate change'
(01/21/2013) In Obama's second inauguration speech today, the newly re-elected president of the U.S. reaffirmed his commitment to taking action on climate during his second term. Noting that ignoring climate change would "betray our children and future generations," Obama argued whole-heartedly for a transition to clean energy.
Fish unable to pass through dams in U.S. presents 'cautionary tale' for developing world
(01/17/2013) Dams create a largely impenetrable barrier for fish even when the dams were installed with specially-built passages, according to a new study in Conservation Letters. The scientists found that migrating fish largely failed to use the passages in the U.S., resulting in far fewer moving through the state-of-the-art hydroelectric dams than had been promised. The researchers say that their findings are a "cautionary tale" for developing nations.
Presence of trees may mitigate cardiovascular and respiratory disease
(01/17/2013) Scientists with the U.S. Forest Service have observed a link between human health and trees, implying that trees may actually mitigate both cardiovascular and lower respiratory disease. Although the researchers do not yet put forward a reason why or how the presence of trees save lives, they are convinced there is a link.
Climate change already pummeling U.S. according to government report
(01/14/2013) Climate change is on the march across the U.S. according to a new draft report written by U.S. government scientists with input from 240 experts. It documents increasing and worsening extreme weather, rising sea levels, and ocean acidification among other impacts. Released Friday for public review, the report will be officially launched later this year or early in 2014.
Mercury hurts birds and people: what we can learn from studying our feathered friends
(01/07/2013) Birds aren't that different from people. We learn from our parents, just like zebra finches learn songs from their fathers. We are active and noisy during the day, like birds, and we can also be territorial. Also like birds, we try to attract mates through colorful displays and beautiful songs. Birds are sensitive to pollution in their environment just like we are: harmful elements such as mercury wreak similar havoc on human and bird biology alike. Because our species share so many attributes, studying birds illustrates the connections between them and us.
Mountain pine beetle threatening high-altitude, endangered trees
(01/02/2013) In the western U.S., few trees generally grow in higher altitudes than the whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis). Providing shelter and food for bears, squirrels and birds, the whitebark pine ecosystems also help regulate water flow from snowmelt. But, according to a new study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), climate change has produced a novel threat for these high-altitude forests : mountain pine beetles (Dendroctonus ponderosae).
Arctic oil rig runs aground
(01/02/2013) On Monday night, an oil drilling rig owned by Dutch Royal Shell ran aground on Sitkalidak Island in southern Alaska, prompting fears of an oil spill. As of yesterday no oil was seen leaking from the rig according to the Coast Guard, but efforts to secure the rig have floundered due to extreme weather. The rig, dubbed Kulluk, contains over 140,000 gallons of diesel fuel.
Western scrub jay funerals...what's all the ruckus?
(12/10/2012) The western scrub jay (Aphelocoma californica) is a common denizen of suburban neighborhoods in the U.S., loitering at bird feeders and amusing bird watchers with their entertaining antics. Known to birders as 'WESJ,' this handsome bird is non-migratory and territorial during the breeding season, but what's curious about WESJ's is the way they respond to risks in their environment. When descended on by a predator or encountering a dead member of its kind, these birds hop from perch to perch and call loudly, ensuing in a 'cacophonous reaction,' a term coined by researchers at the University of California, Davis who are studying the behavior of these unique birds.
Greenpeace says U.S. logging company has broken landmark boreal forest agreement
(12/06/2012) When a long-fought peace was reached between nine environmental groups and 20 logging companies in 2010 for the vast Canadian boreal forest, it was dubbed the "world's largest conservation agreement." However, now that agreement is being shaken. A dispute between Greenpeace and U.S. logging company, Resolute Forest Products, over alleged logging in critical caribou habitat has resulted in the activist group abandoning the agreement.
Wealthy nations' fossil fuel subsidies dwarf climate financing
(12/05/2012) A new analysis finds that 21 wealthy countries spent five-times more on subsidizing fossil fuels in 2011 than they have on providing funds for poor nations to cut greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to the impacts of climate change. The analysis, by Oil Change International, comes in the midst of the current UN Climate Summit held in Doha, Qatar; progress at the talks has been stymied due to the gulf between poor and rich nations, including on the issue of climate financing.
'No-one is listening to the entire scientific community': global carbon emissions set to hit new high
(12/03/2012) Global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from industrial sources are set to hit a new record high this year according to a new analysis by Global Carbon Project. The analysis in Nature Climate Changes predicts that CO2 emissions will rise another 2.6 percent, hitting 35.6 billion tonnes. The scientists warn that such steep climbs in global emissions year-after-year means that the door is rapidly closing on a global agreement to keep temperatures from rising 2 degree Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) above pre-industrial levels.
Hopes pinned on Obama again as Doha Climate Summit opens
(11/26/2012) A number of observers have expressed hope that the Obama Administration, fresh from a re-election victory in the U.S., will take a more active and ambitious role at this year's UN Climate Summit, held in Doha, Qatar. The summit opens amid fresh—and increasingly dire—warnings over climate change from the World Bank, the International Energy Agency, and the UN itself.
China and India plan 818 new coal plants
(11/26/2012) Even as the clamor to reduce greenhouse gas emissions reaches a new high—echoed recently by such staid institutions as the World Bank and the International Energy Agency (IEA)—a new analysis by the World Resources Institute (WRI) finds that 818 new coal-fired plants are under proposal in China and India. In all 1,199 new coal-fired plants are currently planned worldwide, according to the report, totaling 1.4 million megawatts of energy.
Climate activists march on White House again to oppose Keystone XL pipeline
(11/19/2012) Yesterday, climate activists marched around the White House in opposition against the Keystone XL pipeline, which if built will carry tar sands from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico and an international market. The protest, which included over 3,000 people according to organizing groups, is an opening salvo in activists' battle to convince the Obama Administration to turn down the pipeline for good.
BP fined $4.5 billion for Gulf of Mexico oil spill, but company may spend more buying its own stocks
(11/19/2012) Last week the U.S. federal government fined BP $4.5 billion for the Deepwater Horizon disaster in 2010, which killed 11 workers and leaked nearly 5 million barrels of oil into the Gulf of Mexico. The oil giant also plead guilt to 12 felonies and two misdemeanors. However, even this fine—the largest in U.S. history—failed to dampen shareholder support of BP: stocks actually rose one percent following the announcement. Meanwhile, according to the Sunday Times, BP plans to spend $5.9 billion (over a billion more than the fine) buying back its own shares in order to boost stock prices.
Obama criticized for lack of urgency on climate change
(11/15/2012) Following the devastation wrought by Hurricane Sandy—which many scientists say was likely worsened by climate change—and a long silence on the issue of global warming during the Presidential campaign, environmentalists yesterday were disappointed when re-elected President Barack Obama seemingly put action on climate change on the back burner.
House windows may kill 22 million Canadian birds each year
(11/15/2012) The sickening thud of a bird crashing into a window is an all-too-familiar sound for many Canadian homeowners. Birds often mistake windows for openings, flying into the glass at full speed. A startling new analysis suggests about 22 million Canadian birds die each year from such crashes, researchers reported Sept. 4 in Wildlife Research.
Obama breaks climate silence at press conference
(11/14/2012) At a news conference today, a question by New York Times reporter Mark Landler pushed President Obama to speak at some length about climate change. In his answer, Obama re-iterated his acceptance of climate science and discussed how progress on tackling climate change might proceed in his second term, though he also noted that he wouldn't put action on the climate ahead of the economy. President Obama made a small reference to climate change in his victory speech following his historic re-election last Tuesday, but his answer today was the most the president has talked about the issue at any length since at least Hurricane Sandy.

Will Interior's new mobile portal pave the way for other agencies?
Friday - 2/3/2012, 6:28pm EST
With the launch of a new portal this week, Interior Department employees can now use their own mobile devices to log on to the agency's network.
Interior launched the portal, which is part of the department's efforts to build a more mobile workforce. It allows employees to access the network from an array of devices — from laptops and tablets and smartphones.
Mark Forman, the first E-gov administrator at the Office of Management and Budget and the co-founder of Government Transaction Services, joined In Depth with Francis Rose to discuss what Interior's new policy could mean for other agencies.
Forman discussed whether Interior's new portal is the way forward for other agencies as well as the challenges in securing this type of platform.

When we found out that Facebook were going to be flying us out to California to hack, we all had different ideas about how to spend our extra time out there. Naturally, we thought we could make sweet product out of that problem, so we built Indago, an app which lets friends plan a whole trip by independently adding the things they want to do on holiday into their own calendars, and then by automagically and intelligently combining them it creates a unified trip itinerary. The slick UX and tight social integration really impressed the judges, winning us 2nd Place at the Facebook Global University Hackathon.

Help! Thematic unit in relation to Nursing!
- 0Jul 27, '13 by kplp1111Hello fellow students,
I am currently working on my minor in psych in addition to a BSN. And I am supposed to build a thematic unit in relation to the nursing profession. I am thinking that I will build it around a diabetic patient, or really patients. I have to include theory's from a handful of educational theorists ie Dewey, Howard gardener and a handful of others.
Here is an overview of the requirement:
You will develop lesson plans for the first five days of the Thematic Unit. If you so choose to do the entire unit, it will represent a resource that will be available for your future use.
You may also choose a topic that A Thematic Unit applies, and you have taught in the past and want to improve for future use.
The structure of the assignment must follow the format of the lesson plan listed in the resources section of the home page of this course.
Considerations for The Thematic Unit
Demonstrate understanding of the teaching for understanding by creating "A Thematic Unit" that teaches for understanding. Complete a minimum of
five lesson plans for a Thematic Unit that you intend to teach your future students (you may make as many daily lessons plans as you need to reach The Thematic Units goals).
The contents and methodology of the Thematic Unit must be based on integrating Howard Gardners TMI with his Thematic approach for teaching for understanding.
The lesson plans will include a commentary that will help demonstrate understanding of Gardners approach and the incorporation of at least three other theorists studied during this course.
I am not looking for an answer but rather a direction... I don't know how to start! It has to be geared toward our major.
- 720 Visits
- 0Jul 27, '13 by kplp1111I was thinking of maybe something like a 5 day plan for diabetic education in an inpatient setting like LTC?
In that case what is important for patients to know about their disease? Should I explain the disease process and then educate them of the treatments and lifestyle changes?
- 1Jul 29, '13 by kplp1111Thank you for the comment. I figured out what to do. I essence it is a 10 day lesson plan. I have to include ideas from various educational theorists and Howard Gardeners ideas in multiple intelligence. These ideas have to be shown in the lesson plan. I decided to write a thematic unit around Diabetic education in a long term care center/rehab facility. It took me forever but I have finished it.

A fairly extensive menu see as I was expecting a more cafe style vibe. The food was good, and ok value. The staff were friendly enough
S&N is a little place down one of the main roads off the main road that runs through town before you cross the river.
The food is good not expensive a good selection for such a small place but it closes at eight or half past at night.
Best Thai coffee of the trip and because Sukhothai has very few good food choices at the Park, this also has good clean basic Thai and western food. Aesthetic building as well. A real coffee house.
A funky looking cafe on the main street in New Sukhothai. Most other customers when we were there looked to be locals. Good choice of western and Thai foods. We went for Thai and liked that they give you a choice of how spicy you want your meal (1, 2 or 3) although my partner went for 3 and it...
very nice food, but the portion were a bit small.
I was really hungry and I had to buy 2 meals and a cake.
the cake was delicious defenetely worth a try.
It might be one of the best restaurant in sukhothai for what I tried.
We visited this place after reading all the great reviews on Tripadvisor but we left quite disappointed.
The interior surely is nice and funky but that's where the good impression ended for us. We ordered Western food as many reviews recommended it as a good spot for it. Unfortunately, both, ham and cheese sandwich and spaghetti carbonara were awful (overcooked...
Got there and thought about very average taste. Got well-looking dishes which quality was fine as well.
Pleasant service.
This place could easily pass for any swanky cafe in Europe, bar the large amount of Thai food on the menu. The tea and coffee was refreshingly nice and they have an grand selection of cakes, all very interesting and delicious. We stopped by twice whilst in Sukhothai are enjoyed it that much.
Oh and the staff are friendly..
TheTai and European food was nice. The kids wanted pasta and French fries for a change and we preferred Tai food.
Overall: A cool, clean stylish atmosphere serving up above average Thai food (and others) with English service
+ Excellent atmosphere, great refuge from the hot, noisy, hustle and bustle of the outside street
+ Friendly, attentive service
+ Although foreigner-focused, surprisingly authentic tasting Thai dishes
+ Reasonable prices
+ Decent WIFI service
- A small problem on English communication. I...

Auto-populate new iPhoto Album
I didn't find this all too surprising. Hold shift while you click the plus in iTunes and it creates a new playlist from selection, which is incidentally the modifier for the shortcut Apple-Shift-N for "New Playlist From Selection"
Auto-populate new iPhoto Album
The difference is that iPhoto doesn't require you to hold down any modifier keys. As for iTunes, I didn't find the Shift key thing - I tried the usual suspects, Option, Command, Control, etc.

I love that there are community events every month. Most of all though, I feel SAFE here, the Benbrook Sheriff Read More's Department patrols the neighborhood all day long. Convenient location. I can't say enough positive things about this complex. The price is a little steep, but I guess you don't get to live at a great place without forking out some extra cash.

The only issue I had was my boyfriend accidently parked in another neighbors parking space and the neighbor ca Read Morelled the apartment police officer and they had his car towed. It was very aggravating that his car got towed over this. I spoke with the apartment manager and they gave me $150 (I think) off my rent. So at least they did that.

fine, if the government wants to define what the private market must pay a worker, then decide appropriately because that will be the new maximum that a federal worker is allowed to be paid. To ensure a proper and fair balance all income will be taxed at the same rate up to the level equal with 2000 hrs times the hourly rate and that rate will be 1/2 the rate of all income above that threshhold. Say the wage is 20/hr, 1 dollar up to 40000, which all minimum wage earners and federal employees would make, being taxed at 15%, any income over 40k gets taxed at 30%. I'm sure the feds would soon see the error of their ways. All federal giveaway programs go by the wayside also, States that wish to continue any such programs or tax programs are on

This is marketing disguised as propaganda:
This is propaganda disguised as marketing:
The Scientology "Knowledge" ad is trying to make you buy something, whereas the Dodge "God Made a Farmer" ad is trying to make you believe something.
That's an incredibly important distinction.
Scientology wants to sell you a product with its ad. Sure, it happens to be a set of beliefs, but the ad is still just a glossy sales pitch. (The beliefs come later.) All it wants you to do is buy Scientology, and that's why it's marketing disguised as propaganda.
Dodge, on the other hand, doesn't want to sell you a product with its ad. The truck is for sale, of course, but that's not the point. The ad exists for the sole purpose of reinforcing an American myth about farmers that can be co-opted for brand identity. It wants you to believe in the myth, and that's why it's propaganda disguised as marketing.
For the record, propaganda disguised as marketing is infinitely more insidious than marketing disguised as propaganda.
Fantastic. I've been waiting for this
Farmer commercial really irritated me...basically this exact reason.
'coketalk: If it wasn't for the fact the title is in it, I would have thought the Scientology ad was for Apple.
I kinda have to disagree with this assessment of the Dodge ad. Isn't it much more likely and logical that they were...
This bitch always gets it right.
I don't understand this. Marketing is propaganda. Marketing is the propaganda of our neurotic, hyper-individualized,...
But i like the dodge commercial more…mainly because i hate scientology's stupid fuck all beliefs
If a religion spends all that money on a commercial during a super bowl slot, then they do not care about the people...

Tech-savvy shoppers often measure computing capability based on the number of cores that the processors (CPUs) and graphics cards (GPUs) have. However, AMD's revolutionary new APU (Accelerated Processing Unit) technology combines the power of the CPU and the GPU on a single chip.1 We needed an easy way to let customers compare the enhanced power brought by the APU – "Compute Cores." A Compute Core is
any core capable of running at least one process in its own context and virtual memory space, independently from other cores.
A Compute Core can be either a CPU core or GPU core.
To illustrate, we can describe a given APU, such as the
AMD A10-7850K APU, as having 12 Compute Cores, consisting of four CPU cores and eight GPU cores.
Beginning with the first generation of heterogeneous processors (based on the architecture of the APU and released in 2014), AMD is designating the number of Compute Cores in the following manner:
AMD A10-7850K APU with AMD Radeon™ R7 graphics

Arizona Cardinals
Looks like Flagstaff has given up on keeping the Arizona Cardinals
While nothing is set in stone or official from the team's end, it appears the city of Flagstaff is prepared to move on without the Arizona Cardinals.
"Hosting an NFL team has been a bonus to the local economy, and we have enjoyed welcoming Cardinals fans back to their summer home for the last quarter century," Northern Arizona University President John Haeger said in a press release.
According to the release, Haeger said the school will look for other ways to bring revenue to the city by using its ample housing, field and conference space to attract events.
But losing the Cardinals, who have made the area their training camp home for the last 25 years, is a significant blow to the city.
"We've had a solid partnership with the Cardinals for many years, and we wish them well," Flagstaff Mayor Jerry Nabours said in the release. "Now we move forward in collaboration with the university, which has been a key partner in economic development for decades."
The Cardinals' three-year agreement to hold training camp in Flagstaff ended in 2012, and word leaked over the last couple months they were interested in moving the operation to Glendale, where they play regular season games. Haeger said the school "made an extraordinary offer and worked diligently" to keep the Cardinals in town, but alas it appears it was to no avail.
"We thank the many Cardinals fans who've made NAU a summer destination for nearly 25 years and supported the university, local businesses and the city," Haeger said. "We look forward to welcoming you back for Lumberjack athletics and community events."

Your question was published, help is on its way!
Why must I manually defrost my Kenmore Refrigerator 795.6937?
Follow Question
by Manage My Life Last activity date:
The refrigerator was new last summer (2010, though it was brought out across the ice in the spring) and seemed to work fine. It is in a seasonal cabin and is not in use from November until May. This year we have had to defrost it three times by shutting it down. Ice-up is apparent in freezer compartment. We are careful to leave room for air flow in the freezer compartment and below. Note the zip code, 55725. Our cabin is on an island. Not an easy place for service. And costly to have to to lose food to spoilage. Any help would be appreciated.

JONATHAN CHERRY: What did you want to be growing up?
FREDRIK HOLMÉR: The first thing that I can remember is that I wanted to be a musician.
JC: Who or what is inspiring you at the moment?
FH: I think that Marina Richter is a fantastic artist, her work really hits me sometimes. I just thought to myself the other day that I should probably email her and tell her that. Another artist who's work I really like is Viktor Fordell. When it comes to established artist I'm really into JH Engström and Wolfgang Tillmans at the moment. Other then that I'm very influenced by music.
JC: What are you up to right now?
FH: I just finished studying photography for two years and now how a job that doesn't involve photography at all. It feels quiet good to not think at all eight hours a day, you know when your just doing something that flows. I'm also planning to use the office printer to make a B&W zine called People & Trees.
JC: Have you had mentors along the way?
FH: The teachers in school have been my mentors. It's been really good for me to be able to show my work and get a honest opinion about it.
JC: Where are you based right now and how is it shaping you?
FH: I live in Stockholm, Sweden and at the moment it's a perfect place for me, I've always wanted to live in a bigger city so in the future I might be based somewhere else in the world. But it has to be in a big city. I like to discover new things so that I don't get bored.
JC: One piece of advice to photography graduates?
FH: Don't take yourself to seriously.
JC: Is it important to you to be a part of a creative community?
FH: Well, if you're on the internet then you're part of a creative community, aren't you? I like to look at pictures and discover new things and internet is a perfect place for just that. I think that it's easier to develop if you're able to get direct or indirect feedback from others.
where are you from and how does it influence your photography?
1: i live in Stockholm, Sweden and i don't think that my work is directly influenced by my surroundings. when it comes to photography i usually either shoot what comes in my way or it's more conceptual. i once said that my work is completely based on luck and there is some kind of truth in that. the thing today with internet is that you are able to be a part of a much greater culture which makes the place that you are living at less important. with that said, i believe that where i am right now is probably influencing me more then i realize.
you have a Bob Dylan tattoo on your chest. If you could do a photo-shoot with him, what specifically would you do to make your pictures of him stand out more than the others?
2: yes, it's a tattoo of Bob Dylan that I've got on my chest. i got when i was around 20 i think. i picked up Desire and Blonde on Blonde in my teens and his lyrics really hit me. i love a good story and don't care at all whether it's true or not. but I'm not sure that i would want to photograph him, i've seen him live twice and he's a grumpy old man. if he was someone in my surroundings that would feel comfortable with me around i would probably put a point and shoot camera in his face and let the flash go off. but if it was a commissioned job i'm not sure that i would want to photograph him at all since he probably wouldn't be interested in that. i'm not interested in commercial photography unless someone want's me and what i do. i'd rather do what i do and shoot what i want then doing what someone else wants.
have you done commercial work and had a bad experience or do you fear not being able to have control of the photographic process you know so well?
3: for me it's both i guess, I've turned down paid jobs since i haven't felt that there have been anything in it for me and i've done jobs to help friends out. the thing is that if someone wants what i do then i'll gladly do it, but if someone wants a photographer i think that it's best to ask one. i'm not a control freak at all, but i have a lot of integrity.
is there a project you are working on currently that you would like to talk about?
4: unfortunately i don't have the time to work on any new project at the moment. i have 17 rolls of film in my refrigerator that i haven't been able to process yet. i plan to make a b&w zine called People and Trees and i hope that I'm able to do that quite soon. i also want to make a proper version of my book How to catch a dinosaur. i made it myself and that was a huge disappointment… i'm not a DIY type of person since i'm way to restless.
favorite alcoholic beverage?
5: beer

text: Curious.. We have a 2 year old Basset Hound, who we bought our 3 children when we lived in a duplex and love ridiculously. We recently bought a new house on an acre(fenced). I'm curious if a Great Dane would get along with him and the children(ages 3-8-10)? And if so should I buy another male or female? Any suggestions or opinions would be helpful.
