The current nude beach scene is more active than it has been in three decades -- and impending changes have its members all roiled up: increased law enforcement at San Francisco's North Baker Beach and the North Bay's Muir Beach; the closure of most state beaches; a court ruling that could force some beach-goers to suit up; and a possible push to officially designate several Marin beaches as "clothing-optional."
What's spurring most of the latest developments? Increased visitation over the last year, for one, said Yvette Ruan, chief park ranger of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA), who administers more than a dozen properties used by nudists.
As the economy has soured, people have been swapping longer, more expensive trips for stops at beaches. And more people on the sand means more auto break-ins, more cops, and, in some cases, more angry homeowners.
At North Baker Beach, visitors have noticed a jump this year in warnings for rude or illegal behavior being given by park police and rangers. "I've never seen it like this before," says San Francisco TV installer Paul Jung, one of the site's regular volleyball players. So far, however, the enforcement mostly has been limited to leading rowdies off the sand. GGNRA public affairs chief Rich Weidemean said that only one citation for sexual activity was issued there this year, and only three or four in the corridor from North Baker Beach to Golden Gate Bridge Beach.
There are also big changes happening at Little Beach, a nude area known to most readers as Muir Beach. At the cove, where only one citation for improper sexual conduct has been issued in the last year through June, deputies and rangers are starting to make periodic patrols -- in contrast to the past, when they reacted only to calls, Also, warning signs are expected to be posted this summer in reaction to complaints.
Ironically, Marin County Sup. Steve Kinsey calls the summer-long increase in law enforcement visibility a "short term" test to determine if serious problems really are occurring at Muir. "I want to monitor the situation," he said. If the cops find that things are actually pretty quiet on the sand, it might lead Kinsey to starting an effort to designate Muir and several other beaches, such as the north end of Bolinas, as clothing-optional.
In September 1975, the county enacted an ordinance giving it the power to exempt areas from anti-nudity laws, which make nudity a misdemeanor offense. But Marin has never used the exemption power. "It's not something I want to do this year, but I wouldn't have any hesitancy about bringing it forward," Kinsey said. Asked if the other supervisors would back him, he responded, "I think everyone would go along with it."
Residents who have complained want the opposite to happen. If law enforcement fails to reduce what a homeowner who refused to be identified told the Guardian is an outbreak of "lewd, disrespectful, exhibitionist, and intimidating behavior," then complainants may seek to ban nudity at Muir Beach. "It has been tolerated, but it is illegal," says the homeowner. "It's not one or two or 10 or even 30 complainers. It's a huge portion of the community. We're done tolerating the intolerable."
About 50 people, including Kinsey, Ruan, Marin Sheriff's Lt. Cheryl Fisher, and Marin County District Attorney Ed Berberian, attended a community meeting June 16 to discuss complaints that ranged from public masturbation to urination. Muir Beach resident Laura Pandapas complained after a neighbor and her 3-year-old daughter saw a nude sunbather masturbating on the beach, according to the Marin Independent Journal. "This is a neighborhood beach, surrounded by homes, families, and children, and used by clothed families, not just naked people," adds the anonymous homeowner. If they "want to freak freely and be seen ... they should go to Red Rock."
According to Kinsey, "some spot surveillance or reconnaissance" by deputies to check for problems will take place on "some of the more active (hot weather) days" this summer at Little Beach, which is run by the county, while they and rangers at the adjoining federally-owned public portion of Muir Beach, react to complaints. GGNRA's Ruan already has ordered her rangers to "drive by more and, as time allows, get out of their vehicles and walk (along the sand) and talk to people." But unless it's an emergency or they're asked by the county, law enforcement won't be able to do much on Little Beach, which is outside their jurisdiction. But even that could change by January, when Ruan expects the state and federal government to okay a new enforcement-sharing agreement.
Meanwhile, on June 29, the 4th District Court of Appeals rebuffed sunbathing in the buff by ruling that a policy instructing rangers to ignore nudity on state beaches where nudity has been traditionally practiced is invalid because it was adopted without public feedback. The strategy, known as the "Cahill policy," was issued by then-state parks Director Russell Cahill in 1979. The Naturist Action Committee will probably appeal the case to the state Supreme Court, according to attorney Allen Baylis, who represents the naturists.
It isn't known yet whether the ruling applies just to Southern California's San Onofre State Beach, around which the case revolved, or if it could lead to a ban on nudity at other state beaches such as Devil's Slide near Pacifica. The outcome is "a bit unpredictable," says Bay Area Naturists (BAN) leader Rich Pasco, who points out that, according to prior court decisions, California Administrative Code CCR 4322, which restricts nudity in state parks to designated areas, "includes areas 'designated' by traditional use."
Also up in the air: how 220 state parks and beaches -- including clothing-optional properties at Devil's Slide, Mount Diablo's Hidden Pond, Monterey's Indian Head Beach, and even popular Red Rock (which is administered by Mount Tamalpais) -- may be affected by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's threat to close them. A June 8 letter from National Park Service regional director Jonathan Jarvis to Schwarzenegger warned that the federal government could take possession of six former federal land sites, including the Ford Ord Dunes and Mount Diablo (Mount Tam has received federal funding in the past), if they are closed.
No matter what happens, though, there's still time for some fun at clothing-optional areas this year. Want to get involved on a community level? Consider "adopting" Bonny Doon Beach on September 19 when supporters gather to clean up trash. (For directions, see the beach's listing in Santa Cruz County.) You could also make history by helping set a world skinny-dipping record. The Guinness Book of World Records has agreed to create a new category for the most people simultaneously skinny-dipping, so the American Association of Nude Recreation is organizing an event at nude locations and AANR clubs throughout North America. Participation: free. Dress code: nothing. All you have to do is be present at the Sequoians Clothes-Free Club in Castro Valley July 11 at exactly noon, when an official count by notaries and three "witnesses" will occur.

McLaren failed to shine in the rain in Saturday's qualifying for the Brazilian GP while Charles Pic led the battle of the backmarkers...
Sergio Perez: "It's hard to know for sure, but I think we made the correct decision to run in qualifying when we did, but the car wasn't responding properly. I think perhaps we got the tyre pressures incorrect because I couldn't find enough grip out there. My accident in Q2 looked bigger than it actually was - as soon as I lost the car, I went over the grass and hit the wall - but it was only a slight hit, and the car wasn't too badly damaged. It's a pity, but I was giving it my all. I knew it was my last opportunity to set a time; it was getting wetter, and I was pushing right to the limit, because I knew the car wasn't responding well. I was trying my hardest, in other words. In similar conditions, I still think we can make up some positions tomorrow. I'm looking forward to the race - I hope we can end the season on a high."
Jenson Button: "We sat out most of FP3 in order to save tyres, which felt like the right thing to do at the time, but in retrospect maybe it wasn't the right call. After all, we hadn't run in wet conditions on the Intermediate tyres before qualifying, so we weren't prepared for the problems we then encountered. But hindsight is a wonderful thing. We were running a low-downforce configuration, which probably didn't help either. We felt that set-up was working for us yesterday, when it wasn't as wet, but it probably hurt us in getting pressure into the tyre. Still, we were good in Q1 - I ended up in P7 - but, when it rained harder in Q2, I couldn't get enough temperature into the tyres. Hopefully, we can mix it up a bit tomorrow - although the weather on Sunday is supposed to be a bit drier. Hopefully, though, we'll have some good racing, and we won't spend too long behind the Safety Car!"
Charles Pic: We made a lot of changes to the car overnight and started FP3 with an installation lap on wets as the track had a lot more water on it than yesterday. About halfway through the session the conditions had improved enough to go out again and we did a seven lap run, again on wets, which gives us more information for tomorrow. With about ten minutes left there was a dry line appearing so we went for the performance run on inters - it was ok but we knew there was more to come for quali. The rain was still falling at the start of qualifying, but not enough for wets so we went out early with the whole pack to maximise our running time on the inters. It was very tricky out there but I'm happy with how it finished. We've had a balance issue for the last three races that we've worked a lot on and this weekend it's come good, so I'm pleased with my final time in Q1. The main aim was to be in front of our nearest rivals and we've done that, keeping in reserve an extra set of intermediates, so we start what could be a fascinating race tomorrow where we'd aimed for and if it keeps raining like this we could have a chance of reclaiming tenth place in the Championship."
Giedo van der Garde: "FP3 was obviously very wet so we were pretty cautious with the runplan, wanting to make sure we hung on to tyres for Sunday, but overall the car felt pretty good on both full wets and inters. We were trying a few diff settings as well and when we switched to inters for the last run it was definitely getting quicker, but I didn't get a completely clean lap so, even with the time we ended up with in the session, I was still positive about what we could do in qualifying. In Q1 we went out immediately on inters but on my fastest lap I made a mistake in sector two which cost me quite a lot of time. The car balance didn't feel great but I think there was still more to come, not enough for Q2 today but now it's all about tomorrow. We've saved a set of inters for tomorrow so we're in good shape with the tyres we have available. Our car's good in the wet, I really like this sort of weather and we all know what we have to do. We've been here before, on this track and in these circumstances, so we know what we have to do on Sunday. Honestly, I'm excited about it - it's going to be super tense but that's what this is all about."
Jules Bianchi: "A very difficult qualifying today. We had to do everything we could early on as we knew the rain was coming, but in the end the window of opportunity was really only one lap. For everything after that it was too wet to improve. I'd made a big mistake at the end of my one quick lap as well, so it's disappointing as I was so close to Van der Garde. So now we just have to be positive for the race and do everything possible to achieve the right result for the Team."
Max Chilton: "It was pretty tricky out there today and there were a few hairy moments, that's for sure. We left the pits immediately as the rain was heading in and it was literally a one-lap dash. I was happy with my first and last sectors, even though I had a big moment at turn 3. I struggled a little with the balance but it should be fine tomorrow and that's the day that counts."

As I have previously stated, I will not respond or send these plans to anyone, ever! Stop pm'ing me thinking you can get them, and that I'm some kind of weasel that says one thing on the public forum, but does another in private. I take pride in my honesty.
I have already stated that I was "giving" these plans away without considering that it was stealing.
When the copyright owner of the plans politely brought this to my/our attention, I immediately stopped giving the plans away.
I have been to the owners website today, and the plans are still available, and they are still only $22! (Read the rest of the post to find his website).
Regardless of your opinion on whether or not he stole the idea by coping another product, he owns the copyright to these plans that he created by reverse engineering the original, therefore, I cannot give them away...period.
So man-up, spend 22 bucks and buy the plans from the original provider.
It's the right thing to do
The difference between No One. and No. One is where you put the period. John Force

I would love to do all that in one stop. But, I hate waiting in lines!
With the craziness of Black Friday and the days that follow, I steer clear brick and mortar locations as much as possible.
So, I tend to purchase things online, have them sent to me and then I wrap myself for the personal touch. Gift wrapping services would be nice, but only if there were tons of choices of paper, bows, ribbon, tags, etc. That would help me avoid a step and I'd be willing to pay more of a premium for it. I wonder if others would too?
Great idea!
Some locations, like Bed Bath & Beyond, offer little gift wrapping stations in the store. Maybe it's the male in me speaking, but I wouldn't mind paying a small fee for someone else to wrap and ship my gifts. They'd certainly do a much better job than I! Though, I wonder if customers would be able to ship gift wrapped items without the wrapping being torn in the process or the item being turned away.
Would gift wrapped items be required to be placed into shipping boxes, packages, etc.? What shipping requirements exist for gift wrapped items? If they don't already, maybe USPS could offer some holiday themed shipping materials!
I often go into post offices and see long lines of people waiting for the next available clerk, but no one using the APC. Almost anything you can do at the counter can also be done at an APC.
As an alternative to gift-wrapping, how about holiday-themed Priority and Express Mail shipping containers?
I really like the holiday themed-boxes. And to SBD's point below, it could be extended to all holidays or themes throughout the year. For instance, I sent my nieces Halloween goodies in an envelope covered with pumpkin and ghost stickers that wouldn't stay put! A box covered in pumpkins would be a nice alternative!
I love that graphic! It really caught my attention -
I would LOVE to go to Target, buy a bunch of stuff, pick up some of those gift bags, check out... and then amble over to a Postal station right there in the store, drop it all into an express mail box and mail it.
It seems like the Postal Service is really looking at a great opportunity here - how about just giving it a try during the holiday season. It wouldn't even have to be all year long.
I would definitely take advantage of this service. Let someone else do all the work esp. during the holidays. ; )
It wouldn't have to be just for the holidays. Graduation, Mother's Day, Valentines Day. Business could be booming practically year round.
If I'm going to ship a gift anyway...I prefer to buy online and have the item shipped directly to the recipient. But if there is something I'm buying locally and am going to ship, it would be much more convenient to have shipping options available at the store I'm shopping at that match the store hours. Often I find myself driving around with the item I want to ship in my car until my availability matches up with my local Post Office's hours.
You can also schedule pickup from your home or office. Schedule online for whenever is convenient for you.
I think it is a great idea! The reason more people are shpping online is the time saving convenience. This service would add convenience for shoppers, bring more customers into the brick and mortar, reduce traffic in Post Offices, and increase the Postal Service's market share in the package industry during the busiest shipping time of the year.
MZA - great idea - holiday themed shipping material from the Postal Service!! Innovative...
One stop shopping is a dream come true. Specially, during holiday season. I am sure no one wants to spend hours buying, wrapping and shipping one gift. I wish all of it is available at one place in the department stores such as Macy's, Sears and JC Penny, just to name the few. It will make shopping and shipping a pleasant and convenient experience for all.
I shop on line and wrap myself, only because I don't have to send many packages. Bottom line, people do want many choices in a single shopping trip.
I think the Postal Service should seriously consider having APCs, kiosks or even storefronts in some of the busiest malls, so that people could go straight from shopping to getting their purchases shipped. I also believe Post Offices should offer pack and ship -- and even gift-wrapping -- services, all at a reasonable fee, of course. We need the money and have employees who are losing their jobs because of lack of work. It would be a win-win situation, in my opinion.
The mall would be a perfect location for this service! Also, maybe approved shippers could add this service. I don't think Office Depot is selling lost of office supplies the week before Christmas -- this could be another means to offer conveience to the customer!
The USPS YouTube channel is currently featuring a short video on holiday shipping. It's a great little video with shipping instructions and important dates.

Start with a Robust and Reliable Foundation
Achieve Better Scalability and Performance in your Data Center
The hypervisor plays a key part in delivering scalable virtualization performance. See detailed performance demonstrations and comparisons in the performance section of the VMware website.
You'll see that VMware vSphere achieves high-performance throughput in a heavily virtualized environment, even as the number of total supported users and virtual machines per physical host increases. Join the discussion on the latest performance topics on VROOM!, VMware's performance team blog. Blog discussions include:
Better Memory Management for Scalability
In most virtualization scenarios, system memory is the limiting factor controlling the number of virtual machines that can be consolidated onto a single server. By more intelligently managing virtual machine memory use, VMware lets you maximize the number of virtual machines your hardware can support. Of all x86 bare-metal hypervisors, VMware vSphere supports the highest efficiency of memory utilization with minimal performance impact by combining several exclusive technologies.
VMware vSphere uses four techniques for memory management:
- Transparent Page Sharing. Think of it as de-duplication for your memory. During periods of idle CPU activity, ESXi scans memory pages loaded by each virtual machine to find matching pages that can be shared. The memory savings can be substantial, especially when the same operating system or applications are loaded in multiple guests, as is the case with VDI. Transparent Page Sharing has a negligible effect on performance (sometimes it evens improves guest performance) and users can tune ESXi parameters to speed up scanning if desired. Also, despite claims by our competitors, Transparent Page Sharing will in fact work with large memory pages in guests by breaking those pages into smaller sizes to enable page sharing when the host is under memory pressure.
- Guest Ballooning. This is where ESXi achieves most of its memory reclamation. When the ESXi hypervisor needs to provide more memory for virtual machines that are just powering on or getting busy, it asks the guest operating systems in other virtual machines to provide memory to a balloon process that runs in the guest as part of the VMware Tools. ESXi can then loan that "ballooned" memory to the busy VMs. The beauty of ballooning is that it's the guest operating system, not ESXi, that decides which processes or cache pages to swap out to free up memory for the balloon. The guest, whether it's Windows or Linux, is in a much better position than the ESXi hypervisor to decide which memory regions it can give up without impacting performance of key processes running in the VM.
- Hypervisor Swapping. Any hypervisor that permits memory oversubscription must have a method to cope with periods of extreme pressure on memory resources. Ballooning is the preferred way to reclaim memory from guests, but in the time it takes for guests to perform the in-guest swapping involved, other guests short on memory would experience freezes, so ESXi employs hypervisor swapping as a fast-acting method of last resort. With this technique, ESXi swaps its memory pages containing mapped regions of virtual machine memory to disk to free host memory. Reaching the point where hypervisor swapping is necessary will impact performance, but vSphere supports swapping to increasingly common solid state disks, which testing shows can cut the performance impact of swapping by a factor of five.
- Memory Compression. To reduce the impact of hypervisor swapping, vSphere introduced memory compression. The idea is to delay the need to swap hypervisor pages by compressing the memory pages managed by ESXi – if two pages can be compressed to use only one page of physical RAM, that's one less page that needs to be swapped. Because the compression/decompression process is so much faster than disk access, performance is preserved.
With VMware vSphere, virtual machines look and act just like physical machines. Any guest operating systems and any applications or monitoring tools in the virtual machines see a consistent, fixed amount of installed RAM. That ensures that guest software and management tools behave as expected.
If all virtual machines on a host spike at the same time and require all of their memory allocation, VMware DRS can automatically load balance by performing vMotion live migrations of virtual machines to other hosts in the DRS cluster.

One of my favorite Mozilla personalities, Asa Dotzler posted an article the other day debunking a lot of F.U.D. about Firefox and how it is the "new security threat" we should all be worried about, according to an article on PC World's web site. Not often do I sit and read, thinking to myself, "Haha, yeah booyyy!" and "Take that!" but Asa did a great job at taking apart this guy's argument.
You can check out Asa's thoughts and the PC World article and make your own decision though. In the red corner from PC World we have Stuart J. Johnson…
"Many people are switching from Internet Explorer to alternative browsers such as Firefox and Safari. Though that might make them feel more secure, the shift has also opened new doors for bad guys."
In the blue corner, from Mozilla we have Asa Dotzler!
"Stuart J. Johnston, over at PC World's Bugs and Fixes column, does a fabulous job confusing and unnecessarily alarming Firefox users, while at the same time conflating the valuable contributions being made by the ethical security researcher community with the malicious activities of "bad guy" hackers. That's quite an accomplishment in just 500 words."

1 tablespoon
vegetable oil
1 pound
skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut up
1 (16 ounce) bag
frozen pasta and vegetable blend
1 (10.75 ounce) can
your favorite Campbell's® Cream Soup*
1/2 cup
The frozen pasta and vegetable blend I chose was pasta, broccoli, carrots, sugar snap peas, and garlic sauce mix. I used mushroom soup. The only modifications I made were to add a little garlic, salt and pepper. I typically like to prepare more homemade dishes, but I can't discount something as easy and flavorful as this on those nights when I'm just not in the mood to cook. This went over really well. I was surprised at how good it was when I took my first bite. One note: pasta/veggie blends typically come with some sort of sauce. If you choose to cook your own noodles and use a regular blend of vegetables, keep in mind that you will be missing the sauce and added flavor that comes with the pasta/veggie blend. Maybe try to compensate for that by adding extra spices.
This is a glorified Skillet Sensation. I couldn't find the pasta/veggie blend, so I just boiled whole wheat pasta and a blend of dinner veggies, I used cream of chicken soup, too. This just wasn't very flavorful or exciting and, while edible, we probably won't make it again.

Add a little salt, pepper and cheese to taste. This was a HIT with the Family!
I rated this as is, but with minor modifications, it's great! Add a large handful of crackers (Ritz works best- maybe about 10-12). If you don't use a blend (but use your own pasta and a bagged veggie), add about 1 TBS. onion (powder or dried) and salt and pepper to taste. You can use chicken, turkey or tuna.
With a few modifications this meal was a huge success with my family! I seasoned the chicken with celery salt, pepper and a little lemon juice (I was very generous with the celery salt). I didn't have the pasta/veggie blend so I boiled whole wheat pasta and used fresh green beans and carrots for the veggies. For the sauce I used cream of chicken…this was such a quick, easy and delicious meal. I will be making this again :)
It was by no means bad, but it was definitely bland and tasted like it was missing something.
I did not care for this recipe at all. It did not have much flavor and the chicken ended up dry without any flavor, even after it simmered with the other ingrediants. I was going for a quick fix for a tasty low maintenance meal and I got everything but the tasty part! There are just too many other simple and tasty 30 minute meals to waste anytime on this one.

The safety of our Owners and their guests is paramount and the foundation for everything we do. In fact, NetJets sets the standard for the industry.

NetJets also has the most stringent maintenance and operational procedures. We perform exhaustive security checks before every flight. And, we buy only the best aircraft equipped with the most advanced safety equipment.
NetJets manages over 300,000 flights annually to more than 170 countries. Not only did we invent the fractional aircraft ownership industry, but also we've flown significantly more hours than all other private aviation companies combined.

Essential details you should know.
Additional fees and charges are assessed for each flight segment and include, but are not limited to, fuel surcharge, international fees (as applicable), and ground transportation, if requested.
If a Combo Card involves a combination of a large cabin aircraft with a light or midsize cabin aircraft, use of the large cabin hours may be subject to certain restrictions on the designated Peak Period Days (see below).
• Each flight flown on the Card is subject to a minimum flight segment duration of 3.5 hours.
• Upgrades and downgrades requests are not permitted.
Owners can fly to Europe via NetJets or commercial airline, then request the use of a NetJets Europe aircraft for flights throughout the European continent. When exchanging to aircraft in the NetJets Europe program, flight hours are based on predetermined inter-program exchange rates (adjusted monthly based on the currency exchange rate) between the NetJets U.S. aircraft type for which an Owner has a Marquis Jet Card® and the NetJets Europe aircraft type requested. Given the higher cost of operating in Europe, the inter-program rates for exchanging to a NetJets Europe aircraft are higher than those for comparable aircraft exchange within the NetJets U.S. program.
More notice is required on the designated Peak Period Days – days that typically surround holidays and special events when the anticipated demand for NetJets aircraft is particularly high. Marquis Jet Card Owners have no more than 30 Peak Period Days per year which require 120 hours advance booking notice.

A 50-hour Marquis Jet Card has no guaranteed Peak Period Day access during the second year of the term and for flights on these days, additional restrictions apply.
All Cards have additional restrictions on operations on Peak Period Days.
Flight times are estimates based on four passengers flying at high speed cruise and include 0.2 hours for taxi time. Actual flight times may vary depending on aircraft type, passenger load, cruise speed, routing, weather conditions, and passenger load. The NetJets recommended arrival time of 15 minutes prior to departure is also included in the flight time estimates.
Commercial flight times are estimated based upon scheduled commercial airline service and include flight time, stopovers where applicable, FAA-requested arrival time of 90 minutes prior to departure when checking baggage, and 30 minutes post flight for baggage claim. Commercial flight times are based on the average flight time and available routes and schedules posted on www.travelocity.com.
NetJets' recommended arrival time for international trips is 30 minutes prior to departure, which is also included in the flight time estimate above.
Any unused hours at the end of the Card term are available for use with the purchase of a new Card.

Starting Position: Holding the TRX handles or foot cradles in each hand, turn to kneel facing the anchor point with your legs hip width apart. Grasp the handles/cradles with a closed grip. Your thumbs should be wrapped around the handles with your palms facing the floor. Engage your abdominals and round your torso into a ball. Bend your elbows, bringing your hands close to your jaw. Your head is an extension of your spine.
Downward Phase: Engage the muscles of your core and back to support your spine and prepare your torso for movement. Inhale. With control, bring your hips forward, as your body swings forward under the anchor point. Try to keep the spine rounded. Do not allow your spine to straighten or your back to arch or sag. Keep your elbows in and hands adjacent to your face.
Upward Phase: Exhale and use your abdominals to draw the body back to your starting position. Do not to allow your arm or back position to change throughout the exercise.
Using the TRX certainly enhances the appeal of many exercises; however, trainers and individuals should not participate in these advanced exercises until they can demonstrate capability to effectively stabilize their lumber spine (low back) with their core muscles.

I am not a big fan of logos or marketing on my wallpaper, however even I have been using this beauty.
Found it randomly when surfing through Google images looking for something totally un-related. Maybe finding treasures like this is better when you don't look for it, it just finds you… or perhaps that is a little too deep of a rabbit hole to jump down this early in the morning.
You can pick the wallpaper up at Gnome-Look.org, and I have also seen it here too (just in case that first one give you trouble or goes down).

Squamish mill site on LNG map; Clark signs agreement with Malaysia's Petronas (VIDEO)
A brownfield pulp mill site at Squamish could end up the first of B.C.'s 13 proposed liquefied natural gas exporters.
Premier Christy Clark has signed her second letter of intent since arriving in Asia for an LNG sales trip. It's for one of the smallest, at Woodfibre, where the last of a series of forest operations closed in 2006. The pulp mill's main legacy is an industrial-sized FortisBC natural gas line, which a company owned by Indonesian billionaire Sukanto Tanoto has proposed to use for an LNG export terminal.
Private ownership, a century of industrial history on the B.C. coast and the existing pipeline make the Woodfibre site one of the simpler proposals to bring online.
The largest agreement was signed Monday with Malaysian giant Petronas for export facilities at Port Edward on the B.C. North Coast. Purchase agreements from petroleum corporations in China, Japan, India and Brunei were unveiled at ceremonies in Kuala Lumpur.
Before the trip, Clark signed a similar letter of intent with a consortium headed by Shell Canada for a high-volume pipeline and LNG export facilities at Kitimat.
In an interview from Singapore, Clark said the Asian network offered by Petronas shows the world's biggest players are responding to B.C.'s stable economy and its tax rates for gas exports. Clark said the China and India markets alone have steep growth ahead, with India Oil projecting a five-fold increase in gas use over the next decade.
"Today when you look at world events, you look at what's happening with Russia and Crimea, you look at what happens in Africa on a regular basis, and some of the things that have happened in Australia where they've changed the goalposts, companies want one partner that they can trust explicitly," Clark said. "And that is us."
The consortium of Shell, PetroChina, Korea Gas and Mitsubishi identified their projects in Africa, Russia and Australia as competing for their investment capital.
B.C.'s biggest obstacles are the price in Asia by 2018, labour cost and building pipelines over the Rocky Mountains.

Osgood-Schlatter disease is inflammation of the bone and surrounding soft tissue just below the knee. It occurs at the point where the shinbone attaches to the tendon of the kneecap.

Osgood-Schlatter disease is caused by repeated tension or stress on the upper part of the shinbone during its growth spurts.
Factors that may increase your risk of getting this condition include:
Osgood-Schatter disease may cause:

is romantic love a definable concept ?
i think there's a difference between romantic love and that kinda love we have for our family , teachers & our own selves but does romantic love have a definition ? i mean how do we know if it's romantic love or it's that other kind of love ?
May 3 2013: It sounds like you want to know the difference between affection, attraction, infatuation, and love. There is also lust, but I am not going to talk about that.
- +3
It's kind of hard to answer your question.
I think that romantic love is at the end of a long line of feelings.
I think to feel romantically in love with someone before you get to really know them, is dangerous.
I think alot of people, especially young people, confuse lust for love.
Let me share some information I have on the word love with you.
The ancient Greeks had four words for "love." One was e′ros, denoting romantic love associated with sex attraction.
Then there is the strong family love, or natural affection, based on blood relationship, for which the Greeks had the word stor‧ge′. It is responsible for the saying, "Blood is thicker than water."
Then there is the Greek word phi‧li′a, denoting affection (with no sexual overtones) between friends, as between two mature men or women.
Then there is a‧ga′pe. This is a love guided or governed by principle.
It may or may not include affection and fondness, but it is an unselfish emotion or feeling concerned with doing good to others regardless of the merits of the recipient or of any benefits accruing to the giver. When the Bible uses the expression God is love, it uses agape.
Gord G
May 5 2013: If you're in love it's not definable .May 7 2013: I think love has been very well defined in a book called "Conjugial Love" which name with recent translations has been changed to "Married Love"
- +2
The essence of love is loving others outside of oneself, wishing to be one with them and devoting oneself to their happiness. However, it also has been called a state of insanity :)
Seems to me that family love has a very different form of attraction than the love for the other sex and (initially) a stranger. So "love at first sight" does not, and should not, happen with relatives :)
Humans are meant to pro-create since that is the only way a heaven can be created from the human race. This is the best way to start that process. We have all heart that "man are from Mars and women are from Venus" but never what this difference of 'state of mind' is.
Maybe this will help too
http://webhome.idirect.com/~abraam/documents/SexandMarriage.pdfMay 3 2013: Romantic love is suppossed to be mutual, between lovers; it is hard to explain to someone who is not experiencing or has ever experienced it.
But it has a peculiar soul tie between lovers, and the sexual attraction is there.
May 4 2013: what if it's not mutual ? i mean we could be "romantically" in love with someone but they don't love us back , at least not romantically . should we call it love or stupidity ?!
May 6 2013: That's not love then. It's attraction. Love is mutual.May 5 2013: there probably isn't a huge difference. Romantic love often involves sex, which love of your family does not. With romantic love sometimes your lover gives you more praise than other people, and that makes your love grow.May 5 2013: .
My definition is:
Romantic symbiosis of parenting, sex-love, marriage, friendship, ....
(Be Happy Validly, p. 15)
May 4 2013: "As the harsh scrape of rose petals crossed such perfect skin, as sea-jellies adrift in candled pools we communed with no design. The lyrics of your replies and impassioned cries were sweeter still, while burning dams breaking shells revealed the beasts, so alive and true."... I love my mother too, and my children, but not the same.May 3 2013: No.
- 0
Of course, the answer to this question hinges on "definable." Defining a word means to give it a commonly accepted meaning, shared by nearly all. Experiences are intrinsically individual. Each person's experience of romantic love is unique. So experiences cannot be defined to the same degree that we define a brick or a keyboard. It makes no sense to argue that one person's experience of romantic love does or does not fit some definition. We can write down a definition, but it would not have the same authority as the definition of a brick.
May 4 2013: true words ! , but aren't there any common behaviors that come along with romantic love through which we could recognize if it's romantic love or just love ?
May 5 2013: .
Your instinctive feeling of ultra-high accuracy will tell.May 3 2013: They're definitely close. Love is putting someone else's needs above your own. Romantic love basically just is the same thing as familial love (except you choose your partner) with the addition of sexual attraction. It's not magic, luck, or destiny. It's a choice like any other, but maybe the most important decision you'll ever make in your life when you decide to marry someone. It's a beautiful thing, but it takes hard work, sacrifice, and discipline to make it work.
May 4 2013: " It's not magic, luck, or destiny. It's a choice like any other "
how is it a choice ? i mean can we really choose who we fall in love with ?
May 5 2013: .
We can,
via instinctive data and acquired data in our brain.May 6 2013: Sure you can. It happens differently for everybody, but it's still a choice. You choose to commit or not. You choose to pursue a relationship or not. Love is not something that's found, it's built. What all the movies and music have been feeding the world is a lie. You might not choose initial attraction or sexual attraction, but that's not love. Love is not infatuation or even obsession. Love is a mutual deep trust and openness, a commitment to always mutually support each other. That doesn't come at first sight. That only comes with time, which starts with your decision to try to love that person.

Los Angeles, CA (Sports Network) - Chris Paul returned from a three-game absence and tallied 22 points and 11 assists in the Los Angeles Clippers' 94-87 victory over the Washington Wizards.
Paul, who was dealing with a bruised right knee cap, was 6-of-16 from the floor for the Clippers, who won all three games during Paul's absence. Los Angeles moved to 19-4 at home.
Blake Griffin tallied 17 points and 11 rebounds in the triumph.
"It was cool to be back on the court," Paul said. "Blake and I didn't shoot well tonight, but offensive rebounds was how we won."
John Wall netted 24 points to go with six assists for Washington, which had won four of five coming in after beginning the season 4-28.
"Everyone is starting to come together as a team, but the turnovers and offensive rebounds killed us tonight," Washington forward Trevor Booker remarked.
The Wizards trailed by 12 points early in the fourth after Eric Bledsoe opened the stanza with a 3-pointer, but an 11-5 run later in the frame got them within a point. Bradley Beal hit a pair of 3-pointers during the surge, which was capped when Wall split a pair of free throws to pull Washington within 85-84 with 2:00 left.
After Griffin sank two free throws, Nene made a layup to keep it a one-point contest, but Los Angeles scored seven of the last eight points of the game.
Griffin made a layup and Paul nailed a right elbow jumper on back-to-back Clipper possessions to make it 91-86 with 32.4 to play, essentially sealing the outcome.
Earlier, Los Angeles led 24-22 after a quarter of play before heading into the locker room with a 47-40 cushion.
The Clippers took a 73-64 margin into the final frame.
Los Angeles turned the ball over just 11 times ... The Clippers had a 40-28
points in the paint advantage ... Los Angeles shot just 36.6 percent (34-
of-93) from the floor.

Lewis Hamilton says he had to drag "everything and more from the car" to beat team-mate Nico Rosberg in Saturday's Spanish GP qualifying...
Lewis Hamilton says he had to drag "everything and more from the car" to beat team-mate Nico Rosberg in Saturday's Spanish GP qualifying.
Rosberg had the edge over his team-mate throughout the first two segments as Hamilton struggled with the balance of his W05.
The Brit, though, was able to wrestle that extra bit of pace out of the car when it mattered most, crossing the line with a 1:25.232.
Taking pole position by 0.168s over Rosberg, Hamilton will start from the coveted grid slot for the fourth time this season.
The 2008 World Champion, though, says it was anything but an easy afternoon.
"It has been a tough day," he said.
"Nico has been driving really well all through P3 and through qualifying so I didn't know if I could get it.
"In the end I just had to eek out absolutely everything and more from the car."
Qualifying also saw Mercedes win this weekend's development war as, despite rivals arriving at the track with updates, the Brackley team's updates allowed Hamilton and Rosberg to extend their advantage.
Hamilton added: "Coming here this weekend, we obviously didn't know where everyone was going to be but to see the development and the hard work that has gone into getting my car ready for this it inspires me.
"A really big thank you to the team. To have the kind of performance we have, I've never really known that before.
"It was very difficult out there, the track conditions are pretty poor but I'm overwhelmed, I'm so happy."
As for Sunday's 66-lap Spanish Grand Prix, the Mercedes driver is confident he won't be dogged by more balance issues.
"I am not worried for tomorrow, [the] concern [was] for today with balance being tricky.
"My long run yesterday was good but the track went away from us, from everyone, yesterday.
"We can adjust some things on the settings and the front wings, hopefully I will get that right for the race."

Dear Ms. Vicki,
My husband joined the Air Force less than a year ago. The plan was that the military was supposed to be a stepping stone for us. These six years were supposed to be time to start our family and time to get my husband the experience he needed to continue his career in law enforcement.
Then I was going to get my turn at following my dream of opening a pet store. It's more than just a store, really. I want my store and my family to be a part of the community that it is in. I want it to be mine forever.
I have been working toward this dream for a long time. I didn't mind putting it off a little longer for my husband, so that he could put some time in for his career. But he has been very lucky so far with the Air Force. He loves his job and the people he works with, and we even get to live in Europe for a while.
Now he is talking about staying in for 20 years. It is too long for me. I will be 50 years old before I get to open my store. My husband even suggested that we just live apart while I have my store. He treats it like it's a temporary dream or like I'll fail and come home with my tail between my legs.
How would our life even work if we did that? Would I take the kids and raise them by myself while running a business while he is God-knows-where in the world and we never see each other and he never sees our children?
I think he is caught up in the luck and stability he has had in the past few months and he doesn't have faith in us or in me to be successful. Now we can't even talk about it without fighting.
He won't budge and I am terrified. I feel like I have to give up half of my life -- either my husband or my dream. I don't know what to do. Ms. Vicki, do you have any advice for us on how to solve this issue?
Torn and Confused
Dear Torn and Confused,
Trust me, this is not the time to let your dreams and your husband's dreams ruin your marriage. You have dreams, as you should. My advice to you is to keep your dreams.
However, you have to understand that you can accomplish amazing things at 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and beyond. It doesn't have to be "my dream has to happen right now."
I can visualize your pet store in your community right now. I can see myself inside the store buying a Himalayan cat. LOL.
Here's the deal: It sounds like your husband has made a wise decision to join the Air Force. From your report, it's been a great career move for him and you are proud of him, right? You even say you are enjoying the military life and the new opportunities to travel abroad, right?
Then what's the arguing about? Your dream is not over. There are many opportunities for you to work in a pet store, learn more about operating a pet business, learn more about pets, learn to write your business plan, learn how to get business loans for your store etc.
Think of your quest for a store like a trip to California. Let's say you are flying from Florida to California. Your destination is California, but you may have a layover in Texas. Stopping in Texas is OK because you know you are headed to California. Your job is to take advantage of every opportunity in Texas because it will help when you get to your destination.
Listen, your dream is not deferred or delayed. It will be right on time. I think you should support your husband because it sounds like he is trying to do the right thing for you and his family. In the meantime, set some short-term goals so you can have a sense of accomplishment. Keep in touch!
Ms. Vicki

Comments On Aug 31, 2014:These are the best tires I have ever run on my bike hands down! I ride trails and bush and these are the best overall. They wear a little quicker than others but thats due to the design and well worth it when you feel the performance of these.I would recommend these to ANYONE who rides trail, bush, or mixed terrain.

Comments On Aug 12, 2014:I installed a 130/80-18 on the back of my KTM350. The size appeared to be spot on. The tire hooks up great, and it even holds up well in New England rocks. I did not give it a rating of "Excellent" because it still wears faster than I would like. The carcass is very tough, the knobs are very tall, and the scalloped knob edges are effective.

Comments On Jul 25, 2014:This is my favorite tire of all time. I had to quit using it when I made the jump to 4 strokes as it doesn't hold up well on them. But now that im back on a smoker its every bit as good as I remembered. Amazing soft terrain traction and does decent in harder situations. Holds up very well. Then all the knobs will fall off.

Hello ATL!!-
The Jim Warner Fund is now at $2415. We are getting closer to the goal of $5000- which will be matched by Jim's mom- to give us the remaining
10K needed to fulfill the $25,000 donation needed to name the IDGC's East Course after Jim.
Discs have been distributed to most of the TD's that run local afternoon action around Atlanta. These discs will be used as CTP's to raise money for the Jim Warner fund, so please chip in!!
Jordy Boyd has almost completed the Fund Raiser shirt with a design of a Totem Pole of Clowns that Jim designed. They should be available in late May or early June.
Last week, I received an 82$ check from the recent "Super Six" Tournament at Deerlick- the golfers decided to give their ace money to the Jim Warner Fund rather than have a Rainy CTP. Thanks Keith Johnson for collecting and sending in these funds.
Mr Anderson , Luke , and myself are looking for an open date in June or July to run a 1 day Fund Raiser at the new Monticello course. More information will follow when we decide on a date.
It has been two years, since we started the fund and I would like to thank the entire Atlanta Disc Golf Commmunity for your support.
Soon, we will all be playing on the Jim Warner Course in Augusta.
REMEMBER- This coming Saturday- April 26th- there is a work day at the IDGC to work on the new JW Course. I would like to thank everyone that attends this in advance-as i will be in Toccoa for the Pro- AM.
Thanks Again Atlanta Disc Golfers!!
Greg Guttinger

Noteworthy Jams: Roggae, Down with Disease (highly recommended), Catapult (highly recommended), Twist, Harry Hood
Average Song Gap: 9
Performers: Trey Anastasio, Page McConnell, Jon Fishman, Mike Gordon
Notes: Trey announced "Dan" as the winner of the contest from the night before, as Dan was the first to call Mike's hotline to name Dust in the Wind as the song that was teased. Trey announced the prize was a private vacuum solo from Fish to Dan. As homage to the movie Old School (which also featured Dust in the Wind), Trey encouraged the crowd to "earmuff" it while Dan received his prize. To bring the rest of the crowd in on the joke, Phish subsequently debuted an abbreviated version of Dust in the Wind. The song began as a solo vacuum piece but Trey jumped in on vocals to assist the struggling Fish. Trey teased Come On (Part One) before DWD. DWD contained Psycho Killer teases and was unfinished. Catapult was sung over the jam that emerged from DWD.

At first it was just the tangent in the middle that grabbed me, and while that 2-part adventure is still the mind-blowing peak for me, after numerous listens the entire jam, from the drop to the end, is a masterwork in its own right.
RIDICULOUS replay value here, if you give it a chance and a few listens to really grow like a fungus on your cerebral cortex.

Anders Backe is truly a remarkable character. Coming back from a torn ACL in less than 8 months solidifies his status as almost superhuman. Now he is planning to take it even further.
After months of planning and training, Anders is ready to make his mark on history, by setting a new world record, and putting his name in the famous Guinness Book of Records. Anders plans to be the first human to reach over 100kmt, skiing downhill – switch (backwards).
To do this, Anders has teamed up with the ski-jumping facility in his hometown of Vikersund, the only facility that enables him to get so much speed – and has enough ground in the bottom to make sure he brakes safely.
This has been a feat Anders Backe has been keen on doing for years, so it is fantastic to see his idea come to life.

Through Moments in Light, we are delighted to continue in our celebration of women who are masters of their craft. As the Jeweller of Light, our designs are artfully conceived to honour the light of the diamond; it is with this same reverence that we honour the brilliance of remarkably talented women.
In collaboration with our curator, renowned photographer Mary McCartney, we have highlighted five women across varying industries to explore their talents and their Moments in Light – exceptional moments of their lives that they hold most cherished.
To capture their craft and unique brilliance, Mary McCartney used her own outstanding talent to photograph each of the eminent women and portray their illuminated moments.
Throughout the Moments in Light celebration, we will be supporting 'Women for Women International', an organisation that seeks to help female survivors of war zones rebuild their lives.
De Beers announced the launch of the Moments in Light celebration in London on 5th June with an exhibition held at the Royal Academy of Arts. At the event, a series of beautiful portraits of each of the five chosen talented women, as taken by Mary McCartney, were revealed to guests as they celebrated with a cocktail reception followed by a dinner created by Skye Gyngell – one of the project's illuminated women.
An array of fresh meadow flowers suspended from the ceiling created an incredible centrepiece, under which De Beers displayed the 1888 Master Diamonds and Creative Solitaires – a collection launched alongside the Moments in Light celebration showcasing our diamond mastery and wondrous artistry.
Speaking about the campaign, Moments in Light curator and photographer, Mary McCartney said: "Selecting such an exciting array of talent for Moments in Light has been a real journey and a great project to work on with De Beers. Each woman has inspired me with their passion, enthusiasm and creative flair. It has been an honour to photograph them, to curate this unique project and in doing so, to support Women for Women International. It's a very exciting project for me to reveal these talented women in a new light."
The evening was also attended by Brita Fernandez Schmidt, Executive Director of Women for Women International, the charity for whom the Moments in Light project will support. Brita spoke of her gratitude of the campaign's assistance to 150 female survivors of war who will receive year-long training to aid them in their confidence and future skills.
Our curator
Mary McCartney
De Beers is delighted to collaborate with photographer Mary McCartney in the Moments in Light celebration of talented women. A master of her craft in her own right, Mary is renowned for her ability to capture a spontaneous intimacy in her portraits and candid reportage. She has again achieved this in a series of portraits of these talented women, curated by Mary for De Beers Moments in Light.
In support of Women for Women International
De Beers Moments in Light is proud to support the Women for Women charity, who provide assistance to women in war-torn regions with financial and emotional aid. We are currently sponsoring 125 women on behalf of the Moments in Light ambassadors.
