Mayborn PlanetariumRead MorePlummeting into a hurricane's eye. Tunneling through San Andreas's interior. Zipping in and out of colliding galaxies. At Mayborn Science Theater, these sorts of adventures are par for the course. Here, wonders of the natural world beam onto a 60-foot digital screen that wraps around an entire 180-seat theater, creating immersive educational experiences. Screened during weekends and weekday matinees, science-minded shows focus on diverse, family-friendly topics such as stars and tropical reefs. Its laser light shows, on the other hand, eschew education for spectacle, dazzling audiences with 3D graphics and 15,000 watts of digital sound. Outside the dome, Mayborn continues educating visitors at its gallery. Amidst rotating displays on subjects such as rocks and minerals, the Vice Space station showcases Hubble photographs and shares updates from the Mars rover. The exhibit's recent acquisitions even include tiles from actual space shuttles, as well as tiles from actual Mahjong games played by astronauts sitting in NASA waiting rooms.Central Texas College CampusKilleen, TX US
Texas Outland FishingRead MoreTexas Outland Fishing's owner and chief scout, Mike, boasts more than three decades of fishing experience, garnered in lakes, rivers, and streams around the world. He's hunted Alaskan king salmon on the Deshka River, pulled giant striper from the waters of Arkansas, and hooked saddam bass in Baghdad during his tours of duty overseas. One of his favorite fish to pursue, though, remains the Texas alligator gar. The giants can grow up to seven feet in length, weighing over 150 pounds and shopping only in the river's Big and Tall sections. Mike guides gar-seeking group excursions from afar, quietly stalking through the waters to spot the animals. He then contacts the guide and tour group, maneuvering them in boats to the best fishing spots along the bank. Visitors arrive, then cast their lines, setting their hands at the reel. Once a fish is hooked, the battle begins; should the angler win, he or she gets a photo and bragging rights, since Mike only runs catch-and-release boat trips. Of course, wrestling with such a fish isn't the only thing to enjoy on one of Mike's cruises: the Trinity River which he sails weaves through scenic landscape and one underwater gift shop stocked with souvenir muddy sticks.3709 Clementine Dr.Killeen, TX US

This is the most amazing scent I have ever smelled from Glade. It is earthy but not too strong and overpowering. I just wish Glade would fill the bottles a little more. The amount of product in the bottle is pretty low and there is definitely enough room to add a few more drops!
Best scent Glade has ever had. Please do not discontinue!!
These plugin refills have the best fragrance I have ever smelled. I wish they made a perfume in this fragrance, it is so heavenly. My home has found a fragrance that it loves, not overpowering but just right. I believe most men and women will like Cashmere Woods; after all, the name alone sounds inviting.
This is such a great scent earthy scent that is not too flowery or smells like laundry soap! It's great
for a guys apartment or man cave that really kills musty odors! I used this (and the one in green packaging with similar design) after cleaning up a foot of water in my cottage! Love IT....PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE keep it!!!
I love this scent, I just order somemore today.
What a wonderful scent this is. Wish it wasn't seasonal. Please Walmart, carry it at all times.
I'll have to say, this is a wonderful sent. I'm very picky on smells, and this has really impressed me. The smell is somewhere between a crisp fresh laundry and men's cologne. I love it!
I have tried many different scents from this line and love them all BUT this scent is my favorite !!! It is hard to find in stores in my area so I buy on line. I hope Glade keeps this scent available. If you haven't tried this scent PLEASE try it. It might become YOUR favorite also.
I love this scent. i wish it also came in the sence refill spray.
After years of trying and trying to find my perfect scent I have Finally found it! I give it two thumbs up...its a scent that i can use all year round & I love that it smells like a cologne & not an air freshener! With a toddler running around things can get a bit stinky sometimes but I love how this is just an over powering smell.
I love the scent of this particular plug-in. I have gotten many complements about the way my apartment smells. What is best about it is that even my husband, who is very sensitive to perfumed scents, likes this fragrance.
The only PROBLEM is that I CAN'T FIND IT ANYWHERE ANYMORE!!!!! Glade Company, PLEASE PUT IT BACK ON THE SHELVES!!!!!
I love this frangrance and have gotten so many compliments and questions about it. However, finding it is nearly impossible.
I sure hope you never discontinue this fragrance. It's my favorite and I've used just about every fragrance you have. I can't find it in the stores anymore only online at glade.com. I don't know why the stores aren't carrying it. I bought it as a special edition on a fluke and loved it but now can't find it anywhere. Don't fix what's not broken. Thank you for making long lasting fragrances :)
I love this scent. Please do not discontinue! I have had several compliments on the way my house smells with this product.
Great new scent. refreshing in all rooms except in kitchen, which I perfer baked apples. Can't stress enough the fragrance is AMAZING. How about making this carpet freshner
I love this fragrance. People that come to my home love this fragrance. I wish it came in carpet freshener.
I love the smell of Cashmere woods .. it is a very nice soft and not over powering smell ..
Since discovering this scent, I am obsessed with seeking new products in every store I go into. I would love to see the scent in the carpet freshner and definately in the car form! Wonderful smell without smelling like an air freshner!
i just swictched from hawiian breeze to cashmere woods.... i have visitors over and they always ask me the name of the scent
I have just discovered this fragrance and absolutely love it. When I went back to buy more it was difficult to find. Finally found the single refills and bought all 4 remaining on the shelf. I hope this fragrance isn't being discontinued as I have never had a fragrance I like better.

Box Elder man dies from West Nile virus, health officials confirm
Deseret News archives
HONEYVILLE, Box Elder County — John Max Baugh was a simple cowboy, a northern Utah rancher who above all was a family man.
Baugh, known to most as "Rasty," died Thursday at Ogden Regional Medical Center from complications of West Nile virus. He was 84.
Baugh's death is the first in Utah related to the virus in 2012, following four confirmed cases in the state.
The farmer and cattle rancher lived in the Harper Ward area in unincorporated Box Elder County between Brigham City and Honeyville.
Baugh and his late wife, Leah, were married for more than 60 years and together raised six children.
"They made a commitment to each other that, no matter what, they would be together forever, and they would provide that legacy for us kids. And they did," David Baugh, the couple's youngest child.
Rasty Baugh had a hard time sleeping after Leah passed away last year, the son said. He spent many nights sitting on his porch in the moonlight, feeding the cats that would hang around his farm.
Family members suspect it was on one of those late nights that he was bitten by a mosquito carrying West Nile virus. He had been suffering from flu-like symptoms, David Baugh said.
"He just kind of didn't feel real well," he said.
Though he was 84, Rasty Baugh was in good heath, his son said. The illness hit a few weeks ago, he said, and within a few days, the man's speech had become incoherent.
Doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong with Rasty, and he was unconscious for more than a week.
"The day he passed away, they diagnosed him with West Nile virus," David Baugh said.
Though their father's death came suddenly, David Baugh said he and his siblings are finding comfort in their belief that their parents will now be together to celebrate their 65th wedding anniversary later this month.
"We're grateful for the legacy that he's left for us, for what we learned from him, working side by side on the farm," he said.
Lloyd Berentzen, executive director of the Bear River Health Department, said Rasty Baugh's death also serves as a reminder of the seriousness of West Nile virus.
Parts of Box Elder County haven't yet had a "hard freeze," which keeps the risk of the illness alive, Berentzen said.
Individuals are encouraged to protect themselves by wearing long-sleeve shirts and long pants while outdoors, especially from dusk until dawn, using insect repellent with DEET, and removing standing water from around their homes, where mosquitoes may breed, Berentzen said.
Two cases of the virus have been confirmed in Box Elder County, including the death last week, and two other human cases have been confirmed in Summit and Weber counties.
In contrast, the neighboring state of Colorado has reported 106 cases and three deaths this year. Texas has the highest number of reports of the illness, including 1,438 cases and 54 deaths.
Mosquitoes in Box Elder, Davis, Salt Lake, Utah and Washington counties have tested positive for West Nile virus so far this year. A single case in chickens was reported in Cache County and in horses in Box Elder County, according to Utah Department of Health data. The season typically peaks between early September and the end of October.
Last year, three cases were reported throughout Utah and none resulted in death.
A total of 3,969 cases and 163 deaths have been reported to the CDC this year.
West Nile virus was first diagnosed in Uganda in 1937, but cases were not confirmed in the United States until 1999. Experts believe cases across the country have been worse this year because of the hot, dry weather, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The agency has said this year's numbers are the worst since outbreaks in 2002 and 2003, when more than 3,000 cases were experienced throughout the country.
As of Oct. 2, the virus had been detected in people, birds or mosquitoes in 48 states, but the CDC reports that almost 70 percent of the cases in the U.S. have been reported from eight states — Texas, California, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Dakota, Michigan, Oklahoma and Illinois.
Utah Department of Health epidemiologist JoDee Baker said that while Utah has a low case count, it shouldn't be taken lightly.
"Both mosquitoes and weather can play a role in how large an outbreak we see," she said.
Baker said mosquito abatement districts throughout the state continue to work diligently to control the mosquito population, but they can only do so much.
The danger of infection decreases after the ground freezes, as mosquitoes cannot survive freezing temperatures.

Look closely at the faces of the kittens and of the dog Purdy. These are the faces of innocence, of trusting, of loyalty.
They are also the faces that represent just a small sample of what we, in rescue, see every day, sometimes more then once each day. Kittens like Milo and Otis, babies at 4 weeks old, were thrown from a moving car on S.C. 200 recently.
If not for the quick braking of the car behind, they surely would have been crushed under thousands of pounds of the cars weight. That, of course, was the intention all along, wasn't it?
I woke up April 3 of this year and realized I turned 71 that day. Where did the time go?

Suddenly, I realize I'm one of those "old" people we always referred to when we were younger. You realize it when you run into someone you've known for a long time and you can't remember his or her name. And, of course, he or she gives me that poor-old-thing look.
A large issue in the 2016 presidential election trail is the raising of the minimum wage. The biggest supporter of this raise is Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders, who wants the minimum wage up to $15 an hour.
What many fail to realize is, well for one thing Mr. Sanders is a very rich man, and also, raising the minimum wage would mean the inflation of all other goods.
Habitat for Humanity of Lancaster County is pleased to announce our Fourth Annual Bluegrass, Barbecue and Building fundraiser on Aug. 29 was another great success.
We want to thank the community for such strong support. Because of you, this event netted more than $11,000 toward local Habitat construction projects, which will help provide more decent, affordable homes for income-qualified families in Lancaster County.
In his article "Lancaster no better than Rhode Island," John Lage gives us a laundry list of useless information as to why he left his previous blue state and threatens to move again.
His article took up quite a bit of the opinion page; however, my response will not.
Good-bye, Mr. Lage. Your venom won't be missed by this reader.

Lauren Kornegay, project coordinator for the Lancaster County Outreach Project, gave an impressive presentation at the Indian Land Democratic Club meeting on Aug. 27.
Kornegay's mission is to raise awareness about the Outreach Project and to enhance the lives of abused and neglected children and adults served through the Department of Social Services of Lancaster in building a comfortable lifestyle that meets their needs.
I gotta admit all the praise for the appearance of the Sheriff's Office is well-deserved.
A nice building with a fleet of new, clean patrol cars speaks well of a law enforcement facility.
There is really no comparison to former departments. Not only is this a credit to the sheriff and his staff, but to changing times and situations.
Maybe it's because I remember the past when my father, W.B. Evans Sr. assumed office on Dec. 1, 1944.
I read with interest Brian Endres' column concerning the Lancaster County school board.
I'm not sure why it was a sign of disrespect that the board sent one member to the Indian Land Action Council meeting, rather than the entire membership.
To be honest, it seems disrespectful to James Brooks, who did appear, to say "only District 1 board member James Brooks showed up."

Anita and Stanley Steiner '70 Meet Scholarship Recipient Alyssa Wargo '11
Anita and Stanley Steiner '70 found they have a lot in common with senior accounting major Alyssa Wargo '11. The trio met at a Sept. 28 luncheon at Lebanon Valley College recognizing Wargo as the recipient of the Steiner's endowed scholarship for 2010–2011.
The Steiners' endowed* The Stanley and Anita Steiner Scholarship Fund at LVC in 1996 to award annual scholarships to high achieving accounting students for their scholastic accolades. The endowment has awarded 13 scholarships since its inception.
Normally, scholarship donors are united with their student recipients at an annual event, The Lebanon Valley College Scholarship Luncheon, in March of each year. The Steiners live in Arizona during that time of year, and have never been able to personally meet their scholarship recipients. Until now. LVC development director Jamie Cecil learned of the Steiners' situation and decided to do something about it. She invited them to campus for a special luncheon to meet this year's recipient — they accepted.
Wargo is a native of Allentown, Pa., where coincidentally Anita Steiner once lived. Her family later moved to Lewisburg, the home of Bucknell University, Anita Steiner's alma mater. An involved student, Wargo is active in the accounting and math clubs and plays intramural basketball and softball. This is the second year she has received the Steiners' scholarship.
Though she enrolled at LVC as an actuarial science major, she changed her major to accounting, Stanley Steiner's lifelong career. Upon her May graduation, Wargo hopes to work for the government or a government contractor as an accountant in the Washington D.C. area. She is interested in obtaining certification as a government financial manager (CGFM) and financial planner (CFP). Wargo said her favorite instructor at LVC is accounting professor Gail Sanderson, because "she teaches in a style that I like and understand."
Born in Philadelphia, Stanley Steiner earned a B.S. in economics from LVC in 1970. A non-traditional student, he and Anita were already married and the parents of two children. Reflecting on his time as a student, Steiner said he appreciated the required coursework in religion because the chaplain taught him valuable information about many faiths, instilling a belief in tolerance. After graduation, he began a lifelong career in accounting, founding the Steiner, Faren, Monchik firm. Steiner served as managing partner of a team of seven CPAs serving clients in Lebanon and Lancaster counties.
As a seasoned accountant, he offers this observation to students: "There is a big need for public accountants, but you're going to have to work quite hard because of the many new SEC rules to prevent fraud. The governmental sector is a secure and wonderful career."
Anita Steiner was a double major in psychology and sociology at Bucknell. She has worked from the Northampton County Children's Aid Society and as a case worker for Lebanon's Mental Health/Mental Retardation/Early Intervention Program.
The Steiners have a record of giving in Lebanon county. They annually award a scholarship based on academics and need through the Kiwanis Club of Lebanon to a senior from one of the five area high schools.
"We do believe in giving back and encourage others to do so," he said. The couple advises others to include non-profit organizations in their will.
*Endowed scholarships at Lebanon Valley College require a $25,000 contribution. Contact Jamie Cecil at (717)867-6228 or

This recent discovery about mold just gave another reason to prevent or eliminate it, My Cleaning Products said.
However, though in mold elimination, hiring a mold removal company is the best treatment option, it said that it isn't the most cost-effective. It elaborated that although it makes things a lot easier for any mold victim, it isn't budget-friendly.
And so, instead of it, for mold a spread that is not more then ten square feet, it advised a DIY mold treatment. Nonetheless, for the mold removal sprays to use in the process, it only recommended Molderizer and Safe Shield.
MCP asserted that Molderizer and Safe Shield are the perfect help as both are effective and safe. It detailed that hotels, hospitals and mold removal companies have already proven that they work. Moreover, it cited that they are organic-based, so they release no residue harmful to health or the environment.

Technology-related frauds: What you need to know
Dhruv Chawla, Partner, Forensic Services, PwC India
Over the last few years, the battle between netizens and fraudsters has been getting progressively vigorous. With fraudsters becoming more brazen, the quantum of fraud loss in just public sector banks in India touched 1.69 billion USD (11,000 crore INR) between April and December 2014 (The Economic Times, 2015) and the number of cybercrime cases rose by over 350% from 2010–2013 (Hindustan Times, 2015).
What cautions do people need to take under the circumstances, and what exactly is causing these huge fraud losses? What is it about cyber frauds that is so alarming?
Credit/debit card data theft is one of the prime sources of financial fraud. It began with high-tech devices that could replicate data stored on the magnetic strip of credit/debit cards and reproduce the same onto a cloned card. Although this vulnerability was addressed with the release of 'chip and PIN' cards, e-wallets (such as Paytm and Citrus Pay) and near field communication enabled cards, fraudsters have evolved as well. They have become more sophisticated and innovative in the means they use to obtain sensitive/confidential information. Fake panels or skimmers that are installed at ATMs to gather card details and drone-based surveillance cameras hovering above ATM kiosks are among the common new cyber theft technologies.
Nigerian scams still account for the highest share of online scams in India. What prompts a person to believe he or she has been lucky enough to win 750,000 USD (4.8 crore INR) in a random international lottery in which he or she didn't even participate? Scammers have started to develop more enticing sales pitches, luring us into paying them 'service fees' in order to facilitate the processing of our fantastic lottery winnings.
Phishing is the next most rampant form of fraud in India. Contemporary phishing via emails has advanced to a form of tele-phishing called vishing. People are coaxed into divulging their credit card details over the phone, mistakenly believing that caller ID protects them against malicious callers.
Content and software piracy is another common form of cyber fraud. In 2014, India made it to an International Piracy Watch List, highlighting the need for efforts to curb piracy in India (TheHindu, 2014). The value of unlicensed software (resulting in massive losses for American developers) being circulated soared to nearly 2.9 billion USD (18,000 crore INR) (BSA, 2014).
And these statistics are just the tip of the iceberg! If research is to be trusted, the imminent advancements in cybercrime are nothing short of terrifying!
Net extortion by anonymous groups, for example, has now become a common follow-up to intellectual property theft. Also known as cyber blackmail, in such cases, hackers threaten to expose intellectual property (e.g. the case of Sony Pictures Entertainment in November 2014) or private images/videos (e.g. the iCloud hack in August 2014 wherein data of high-profile celebrities was leaked) to the public unless certain demands (usually financial) are met. Denial of service attacks that cripple cyber systems seem passé in comparison with ransomware which encrypts intellectual property until ransoms are paid out.
Very recently, the 'Amazon of insider trading' was created to sell trade secrets and market-sensitive information to the highest bidders. Although there were no ransom demands from hackers who illicitly obtained this information, the ramifications for information security were immense and authorities were left mind-boggled (Sydney Morning Herald, 2015).
Further, with the surge in black hat hackers and dark web networks indulging in gambling, black market activity, drug trafficking, counterfeiting, and distribution of weapons and pornographic content, the social and economic ripples are enormous.
But what does this mean for netizens?
It is now essential for us to 'think before typing' and invest in perimeter protection (at an individual and corporate level). It is not only imperative for businesses and people to protect their assets (intellectual property and physical resources) but also to encrypt data to whatever extent possible. Periodic information security audits and near real-time threat and vulnerability monitoring are a good form of defence for big firms. Additionally, encrypted private cloud-based storage can be developed to promote off-site data housing.
The repercussions of being too trusting of online enchanters are too severe to ignore. Cyber fraud is now ubiquitous—laptops, tablets and mobile phones are all vulnerable. Although the propagation of bring your own device (BYOD) in firms across the world makes employees' data as susceptible to cyber fraud as that of the employer, it indirectly provides an incentive to employees to safeguard against fraud. Needless to say, awareness is key.

Malankara World Journal Issue 15 ( July 22, 2011) is now available online
Expand Messages
- The Malankara World Journal Issue 15 (dated July 22, 2011) is now
available online at:
This week's cover picture is truly different. It is a picture of St.
Mary made with butterfly wings by an African artist. Amazing art!
This Sunday is the Sixth Sunday after Pentecost. The gospel reading is
from St. Matthew 15:32-39. It is the miracle of feeding 4000+ people by
Jesus Christ. Many people confuse this miracle with the miracle of
feeding 5000+ people plus with 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish we had been
reading about in the past two weeks. But these are distinctly different
miracles. Here are a few major differences you see by perusing through
the Bible Analysis, Commentaries and Sermons provided in Malankara
World. ( The full list of sermons and commentary can be found at:
1. The number of people mentioned: 5000 men vs. 4000 men.
2. The number of fish and the number of loaves (5 loaves of bread plus 2
fish vs. 7 loaves of bread plus few little fish)
3. The number of baskets of left over food. (12 baskets vs. 7 baskets)
4. The type of baskets used to collect left over food was different.
In the feeding of the five thousand, the Greek word used for the basket
was cofinos. This was a small basket with a narrow neck with a small
opening on the top.
In the miracle of feeding 4000 we study this week, the Greek word for
the basket used is spureze. It refers to a hamper-sized basket, a big
basket. These generally had two handles. These baskets are used
predominantly in the Gentile territories by Gentiles.
When we read the bible, we may have the impression that there was more
food left over in the earlier miracle as the leftovers filled 12
baskets. So it's possible that actually there's more bread left over in
the second miracle (4000), considerably more than in the other one,
because, although only 7 baskets were used to collect the leftovers, the
actual baskets were much bigger than the earlier Jewish baskets.
5. Location of the miracle. The miracle happened on different sides of
the Sea of Galilee. The earlier miracle took place near Bethsaida, the
later miracle happened in the area of the Decapolis.
6. The time of year when the miracle took place is also different. The
miracle of feeding 5000 took place earlier in the year/season, possibly
at springtime or early summer when the grass was green. No mention of
green grass here, it's a little bit later in time. So the hot sun has
killed the grass.
7. The crowd's response is also different. After the earlier miracle,
the crowd wanted to make Christ their King right there. You don't see
that here at all, there's not that type of response.
8. The composition or the ethnicity of the crowd is different too.
Before, on the western side of the Sea of Galilee, it was a
predominantly Jewish crowd. Here it appears, for a good reason, that it
is predominantly a Gentile crowd.
9. In the miracle of feeding 5000, the bread and fish were supplied by a
little boy. In the feeding of 4000, the fish and the bread seems to have
been supplied by the disciples themselves; no mention of any boy.
These differences in the two miracles also signifies an important
paradigm shift. The early work of Jesus and the disciples was done among
the Jews. The left over food was collected in 12 baskets, perhaps
symbolically showing the twelve tribes of Israel, the most important
number for the Jews. The work of Jesus slowly expanded to the Gentiles.
The most important work in the New Testament period was done in Gentile
territories. In New Testament the most important number is 7. Seven is
used in New Testament to represent the church. For instance, there's the
seven letters to the seven churches mentioned in Revelation chapters 2
and 3. So, it is possible that there is more to the collection of the
remnant food in 7 baskets in the second miracle than meets the eye first.
We had been publishing the trip reports from the recently concluded
MGSOSA faith mission to Dominican Republic. This week we have included
the trip report for July 5-6. I have included an article by Varghese
Monai Karuthalackal titled 'True Beauty' as the focus of this week's
journal. Monai was moved by what he learned when he visited an orphanage
in Dominican Republic. He realizes that all the blessings in his life
comes from God. He shares what he learned from reading a book gifted by
his mother. It is a very moving article. (He also mentions one of my
favorite gospel song, "Ethratholam Yehovah Sahayichu".) We have a
companion article "How to Find God's Mercy Amidst Suffering." The two
articles will give you a different perspective on life.
Archbishop Chaput writes about how what we do will shape our eternity.
We spend more time watching TV than reading bible or spending time in
Church. So, TV and the media is what shapes our morality more than what
we read in bible. Are we ready to make some changes in our lifestyle for
our eternity?

The Minnesota Legislature is pushing energy policy in two different directions this year. Some legislators are trying to make energy cheaper, while others want to make it cleaner. There's no consensus about what Minnesota's energy problems are, let alone how to solve them.
Cheaper energy, or cleaner? Minnesota Legislators torn
Texas Town Says No to Fossil Fuels, Yes to 100% Renewables
One city in Texas aims to be the first to power itself entirely on renewables. Georgetown, Texas, 30 miles north of Austin in central Texas, has announced its intention to be all-renewable by 2017. The city of 50,000 has signed a deal with SunEdison to supply it with solar power for the next 25 years. It comes on the heels of a a deal the city made last year to source electricity from a wind farm currently under construction 50 miles west of Amarillo that will start to provide power next year. The two deals—for 150 megawatts of solar and 144 megawatts of wind—will make Georgetown Utility Services one of the largest municipally owned utilities in the U.S. to get all its electricity from renewables.
Texas city to switch from fossil fuels to solar, wind
"The calculus is, not only does it bring power prices down, but it sharply decreases our water usage and is not subject to environmental regulation on greenhouse gases," said Jim Briggs, general manager for the city's utility. SunEdison vice president Paul Gaynor told The Associated Press that the company is planning to concurrently build another major solar installation in Texas, but it declined to provide details. Gaynor added that more cities will shift to renewable resources as they seek to shield themselves from the fluctuating prices of fossil fuels.
As wind power booms, Texas lawmakers consider yanking support
Thousands of wind turbines have sprung up across West Texas and up and down the Gulf Coast. Companies as diverse as Google and Dow Chemical are investing hundreds of millions of dollars in Texas in a race to lower their carbon emissions. With almost 20 percent of the country's total capacity, Texas has become the undisputed king of wind energy. With so much success, state politicians are asking whether it's time for Texas to end its support for the renewable power industry.
California First to Feel Hydro-Power Crunch of Drought
Snowpack at 12 percent of average in the Sierra Nevada means there is less runoff to feed rivers and streams that run through dams to generate cleanly produced hydroelectric power. Despite the state's ambitious clean-air goals, officials are turning to dirtier, more costly fossil-fuel plants to fill some of the power gap. They also will seek more hydroelectricity imports in a region expected to have markedly less to offer this summer.
Dow Chemical Agrees to Buy 200 Megawatts From Wind Farm in Texas
Dow Chemical Co., the largest U.S. chemical maker by sales, has agreed to buy 200 megawatts of capacity from a wind farm under development in Texas. A subsidiary of Bordas Wind Energy LLC is building the wind farm, which is expected to be completed in the first quarter of next year, Midland, Michigan-based Dow said Friday in a statement. The project, which will span almost 35,000 acres, will supply Dow's Freeport, Texas, manufacturing facility. Terms weren't disclosed.
States' 'no' gives courts time to kill power rule — McConnell
The Senate's top Republican advised states again yesterday not to submit implementation plans for U.S. EPA's Clean Power Plan, predicting that the rule would not survive judicial review. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) argued in a letter to governors that EPA's existing power plant carbon dioxide draft is highly and legally vulnerable and likely to be overturned in court. States have little to fear and everything to lose by complying with it, he said.
Obama to seek 40 percent cut in federal greenhouse gases
"These are ambitious goals, but we know that they're achievable goals," he continued. Obama will also push federal agencies to get 30 percent of their power from renewable sources like wind and solar energy. Several major federal contractors and suppliers are announcing emissions reduction goals of their own. "Since the federal government is the single largest consumer of energy in the nation, federal emissions reductions and progress across the supply chain will have broad impacts," the White House said in a fact sheet.
Obama orders 40% cut in federal greenhouse gases by 2025
That document will flesh out the promise Obama made last November in Beijing to slash economywide U.S. emissions between 26 and 28 percent from 2005 levels by 2025. That pledge — which was made alongside China's promise to contain emissions by 2030 — supports efforts to reach an international agreement on climate change in Paris at the end of this year.
Obama Orders Cuts in Federal Greenhouse Gas Emissions
President Obama signed an executive order on Thursday to set new goals for reducing the greenhouse gas emissions of federal agencies, his latest use of his executive authority to address the root causes of climate change and press private companies and foreign governments to follow suit. Mr. Obama's directive orders federal agencies over the next decade to cut their emissions by an average of 40 percent compared with their levels when he won office in 2008, and to increase their use of electricity from renewable sources by 30 percent.

Leather bag brand The Cambridge Satchel Company is opening its first standalone store, in central London.
The 583 sq ft shop, on Shorts Gardens in Covent Garden, will open in two phases, with the first 40% being unveiled as a pop-up "teaser" on December 8 in time for Christmas.
The rest of the store, which will include a dedicated meeting space for fashion bloggers, will open during London Fashion Week in February.
Cambridge Satchel Company, which was founded by Julie Deane in 2008, has until now only been available via its website and through selected wholesale stockists, including department store Harrods and etailer Asos.
However, Deane said she felt the time was right for the brand to have its own retail presence.
"We want the shop to give both our consumers and wholesale customers a window to the brand," she said.
Deane said she wanted the store to include a meeting place for bloggers because the community had been so instrumental in the brand's success.

Just want to let you know about some changes we're beginning to make in our TechNet site to help you find relevant community resources for System Center-related topics, both on Microsoft sites and off...
Chris over at TechNet had approached me a little while back about the TechNet social bookmarking app, and we talked about how we could build awareness for it. Among other things, it seemed that an obvious starting point would be to build a feed of System Center-related community bookmarks into our TechNet TechCenter (which you'll find both on the home page and on the Community tab).
I encourage you to check out the bookmarking app and add in a few of your own bookmarks--whatever favorite resources you might have related to System Center (just be sure to use the "system center" tag, as indicated). This also afforded an opportunity to, at long last, add in blog and forum feeds (which you can import into your favorite RSS reader using the available OPML). Thanks to Mike, who is our TechCenter site manager, we now have what I hope you will agree is a more useful community page.
Eventually, too, I would like to include third-party community feeds: just need the content, and then we can build out a page that exposes some of the resources and key contributors in the community on TechNet. Wanted to include a "System Center"-tagged Twitter feed, but unfortunately, we're not technically enabled to display Atom-based feeds. (Could someone please pummel the folks over at Twitter and insist they also include RSS in their output? Sheesh.)
And over on TechNet Edge, I'd like to draw your attention to a new portal for System Center-related videos that we created. Perhaps, in time, we will build a presence out on sites like YouTube and Vimeo, but for now I'm just trying to figure out how to resource this kind of activity for the long run.
And, finally, before too long, I hope to have the ability to build such features, appropriately configured, into our pre-sales sites on MSCOM; it's just a question of having a site component that permits the subscription and display of external RSS sources (something I've wanted longer than I'd care to remember).
As always, tell us what you think of these ideas, and if you have any others, especially where it involves the incorporation of various RSS sources of value to the community, please do let me know.... The thread is open!

Dr. Steve Greene is now sharing his reflections and practical insights as a ministry leader on Greenelines, a new podcast. Listen at charismapodcastnetwork.com.
The last 30 years of church history could be called the "inspiration" decades. It's been a period where pastors were more likely to be inspirational speakers than prophetic voices.
And I get it. Most people are beat up from life, they feel unworthy and need to be encouraged. But the truth is, the Bible isn't exactly the most inspirational book ever written. The Bible is focused more on reality, and in the New Testament, Jesus tells it like it is.
When I mentioned this fact recently, a friend said, "But what about how Jesus dealt with the woman caught in adultery? The religious leaders were going to stone her, and Jesus had compassion." Bravo. Yes, He probably saved her life, but then He didn't empathize about her problems, encourage her to try harder or become the best she could be. Instead, He said quite directly, "Neither do I condemn you. Go now and leave your life of sin."
Jesus didn't condemn the woman, but He also didn't cut her any slack. She had made mistakes, and it was time to get serious. I think we worry so much about being "relevant," not hurting feelings or turning off our contemporary audiences that we're not giving them the one thing they need the most—reality. Today we live in the most distracted and disrupted culture in history, and when someone visits your church, they don't have a lot of time to waste.
Let's not go overboard and be a jerk. Let's be inviting, responsive and sensitive. But perhaps more important, let's cut to the chase.
The age of pastor as motivational speaker should be over.
What do you think about the issue?

An Unapologetically Modern Collection by Tiffany's New Design Director
NEW YORK, NY (August 1, 2014)
In her new role as Tiffany's design director, Francesca Amfitheatrof took the measure of the city—its power, energy and daring—and captured it in the graphic Tiffany T.
Born in New York, Tiffany T is an icon for a new era. Amfitheatrof dedicates it to the world's great cities and the global travelers who gravitate to art and culture—and the edge, where creativity sparks change.
"I wanted to create a symbol for modern life and its relentless energy that flows through New York and drives art and culture around the world," she says. "This is just the beginning of what I hope to accomplish."
A trained jeweler and silversmith, Amfitheatrof found her edge in sketches inspired by the newness all explorers seek and the sheer lightness of Tiffany design. Her work was also infused with the spirit of American design that thrives on a bold approach to established traditions. These influences translated into strokes of genius, a flurry of forward motion as rhythmic and effortless on paper as it is in precious metal.
Tiffany artisans are the master builders of Amfitheatrof's brilliant play of angles and curves. Their skill with 18 karat gold—rose, yellow and white—and sterling silver gives Tiffany T the strength of architecture with which it travels from chic to sublime. Wide cuffs and minimal bracelets perfectly contour the wrist. Multiple chains of varied lengths and elegant pendants drape the neckline. Rings stack seamlessly and earrings move with grace. Altogether, Tiffany T is a rich mix of options, layered in striking looks of pure ease and sensuality.
Stonesetters bring the light of the finest diamonds and glowing gems to Amfitheatrof's beautiful beginning as Tiffany's design director. They are like the capstones of a bejeweled city rising in the night sky, alive with possibility.
Tiffany & Co. operates jewelry stores and manufactures products through its subsidiary corporations. Its principal subsidiary is Tiffany and Company. The Company operates TIFFANY & CO. retail stores in the Americas, Asia-Pacific, Japan and Europe, as well as in the United Arab Emirates and Russia. It also engages in direct selling through Internet, catalog and business gift operations. For more information, please visit Tiffany.com.

Now, that seems to have also changed as StatCounter reports that in terms of smartphone web usage Samsung has now surpassed Apple. That means that people all over the world are using Samsung's smartphones more to access the web than iPhones or iPod touches.
The web monitoring service tracked mobile device accessing its websites and for the first time in June Samsung actually beat Apple in being the most used mobile device brand for surfing the web.
The difference between Samsung and Apple is minimal, but it's there. Samsung accounted for 25.5% of all page views, while Apple grabbed a 25.1% share. Nokia remained third with 22%.
While it might have fallen out of grace in June worldwide, Apple still dominates the United States market. In America, 54.8% of users used iDevices to access the web and Samsung was a distant runner up with 18.3%.
The StatCounter rankings only include smartphones and no tablets.

686 and Levis' Trucker mixes denim style and technical details; it's a snowboard jacket with taped seams, a waterproof yet breathable shell, iPod stash, and Recco avalanche beeper.
The amount of action in this Shipyard trailer for Split/Second is measured in seconds, but there's literally boatloads of it; it gives us our first real look at a single obstacle course.
You'd have to be a few fleas short of a flea bath to think this Dog Remote Control works, but it definitely makes the perfect gift for owners on their last hind legs with a new puppy.
Yes, it's totally viral and CG, but we have to hand it to Intel: they sure know how to fire their employees; this Cannonbells commercial literally shows engineers using their heads.
DIY doesn't get much more legit than Harrison Krix: the professional prop creator was commissioned by Daft Punk to replicate a gold helmet and outlines the entire process here.
Splinter Cell: Conviction proves to be a two-fer in more than one way with this Co-Op trailer; it's a two-player prequel campaign that bolsters the main story with six hours of gameplay.

The Mag+ digital magazine is only a concept, but it's very well thought-out; ideas include vertical reading, text/imagery focus shifting, view neutrality, and contextual radial menus.
NSFW: it's a good thing that this debut trailer for Kane & Lynch 2 is deliberately low quality; if Lynch's flashbacks got any more visceral, we'd have to wipe the blood off our monitor.
If you liked today's Iron Man trailer, here's a metal suit of a different era: Robbie Lee's Battle of the Ironclads tee teams up the Monitor and Merrimac in a sequel to his (sold-out) first tee.
With Mickey Rourke, Samuel L. Jackson, Don Cheadle, and the obligatory cameo by Stan Lee, Iron Man 2 is pure kick-ass; watch the suit- and star-powered trailer here. Thanks, everyone!
