The Green-Jobs Fallacy

Think we could use 5 million new jobs right about now?
That's what President Obama promised he'd create by "investing" taxpayer money in so-called green jobs. And not just any jobs, he said on the campaign trail in 2008, but ones that "pay well, and can never be outsourced."
Jump ahead three years, and the only "green" you find is the billions being poured into the coffers of renewable-energy companies lucky to even stay in business, let alone create a high number of jobs.
Don't assume what happened to the solar-panel company Solyndra is unique. Its high-profile bankruptcy is basically the green-jobs fallacy writ large.
Consider how these subsidized companies are funded. Are anxious investors ready to shower dollars on wind and solar power because there's great potential to make more money in this promising field? That's how companies get off the ground -- and stay there: They attract entrepreneurs who see the chance to make money and are glad to invest.
Companies such as Solyndra, by contrast, apparently can't get by without money confiscated from you and me. (For that matter, they can't even get by with it.) That should tell you something about how viable their product is.
There's a reason that I put quotation marks around the word "invested" above. It's a misnomer. The president and other green-jobs proponents use it because it implies we'll see a return on our money -- a return that has so far proved to be an illusion.
Green jobs are few in number, and they're costly. "The president's own Council of Economic Advisors admitted recently that only 225,000 clean energy jobs were either created or saved and cost the tax payer $355,000 per job," Thomas Pyle, president of the Institute for Energy Research, writes in U.S. News & World Report.
The green lobby also claims that energy regulations can reduce unemployment.
More people have to be hired to help companies comply with the regs, right? But they're overlooking the way the added costs wind up being passed onto consumers in the form of higher prices. And not just from the energy companies themselves, but from other industries as well. Almost every product we use, after all, is made using some form of energy.
Remember, too, that government spending has to come from somewhere. Money that likely would have been put to a more productive use has been funneled to a politically favored industry. As energy expert Nicolas Loris notes, "When the government gives money to build a windmill, those resources cannot simultaneously be used to build other products."
Simply put, the government is picking winners and losers. Or trying to, at least -- the government record on such efforts is, well, a losing one.
We saw it when President Carter was in office. The money he "invested" in a fruitless quest to create synthetic fuels proved an expensive failure. Well, the same dynamic is at work today when President Obama gives taxpayer funds to companies such as Solyndra. But good intentions are no substitute for a sound business plan.
Some will still argue that renewable energy is a worthwhile goal. But it has to be renewable energy that works. And if the potential to make money was there, private funds would follow, no problem. Subsidies wouldn't be necessary. The fact that they are tells you a lot about the real job-creating potential of renewable energy.
A new report from the House Budget Committee sums up the situation up: "The government-as-investor model distorts markets, weakens the rule of law, wastes taxpayer dollars, and fails to spur sustainable job creation."
So why are we allowing the green agenda to drive us further into the red?

Vanilla is a product of Lussumo:
Documentation and Support.
We're going to launch one of these threads a month. And down the months and years, we'll build up not only a mugshot parade of the Whitechapel crew -- but also, for those who choose to participate monthly, there'll be a record of how we all change and grow (and in my case age horribly).
So. Take a photo of yourself and post it (if you're not sure how -- you put a photo on the web somewhere, a free hosting site like Flickr or Photobucket or your LJ gallery if you use LJ -- Blogger image hosting won't work -- and click the "img" button above to put the address of the image in, the http://) here.
@SpiraltwistThankee kindly. I like it too.
That's a nice shot, btw.
you're the FETT!?!?

Diet Stack has cutting-edge ingredients to get you lean, fast
Rather than relying on hype, Diet Stack uses scientifically validated ingredients in a single weight loss formula you can count on. Once you try Diet Stack, you'll never go back to your old fat burners again. Diet Stack can help you:
Here's how Diet Stack's core ingredients help you lose weight fast:
EGCG in green tea accelerates fat loss*
To boost your metabolism, Diet Stack is loaded with green tea extract. It's standardized to contain a high level of a unique fat-fighting compound called EGCG (Epi-Gallo-Catechin-Gallate). Research shows EGCG enhances the effects of your body's own fat-burning substances.*
Two studies show effective weight loss with green tea
In one study, 66 overweight subjects lost an average of 7.7 pounds over a period of 12 weeks taking 135 mg of EGCG from green tea plus caffeine twice daily (morning and mid-day). They also dropped 4 centimeters in waist size. Diet Stack includes the same amount of EGCG (270 mg per day) that showed fat-burning results.
Another study showed participants, without exercising, burned up to 200 more calories a day compared to a placebo (precise measurements were done in a metabolic chamber). That equates to almost a half a pound of body fat burned per week from green tea alone.*
Caffeine enhances fat loss and fuels energy*
Diet Stack also delivers a moderate dose of caffeine (100 mg per 2 capsules), about equal to what is found in a tall cup of coffee. For centuries caffeine has been used to get people going. It also is excellent at releasing stored body fat to fuel your energy levels.*
Bitter orange attacks fat and boosts metabolism*
Diet Stack includes the metabolic enhancer bitter orange extract from the Citrus aurantium plant. Bitter orange contains alkaloids (synephrine and 4 others) that directly stimulate the body's beta-3 receptors. These receptors act like sparks that ignite your metabolic rate and energy levels to help increase fat burning. It also indirectly helps release body fat by stimulating your body's powerful natural fat burners, epinephrine and nor-epinephrine.*
Study shows weight loss accelerated by bitter orange
In one study, 9 women were placed on a 1,000 calorie per day high-protein, low-carb diet for 2 weeks. During the first week without bitter orange, the mean weight loss was only 2 pounds. During the second week, they were given bitter orange (total of 52-65 mg of synephrine alkaloids per day). Weight loss increased dramatically to 5.25 pounds for the second week. This result is particularly significant since part of the weight loss in the first week of any diet can be attributed to water loss.
Bitter orange has 4 U.S. patents
Bitter orange extract is so effective, it has been awarded 4 United States patents for its ability to mobilize body fat and increase metabolism (thermogenesis), increase lean muscle and decrease body fat, suppress appetite and improve overall athletic performance.*
L-tyrosine fuels your natural fat burners*
The amino acid L-tyrosine is a metabolic precursor to bitter orange and green tea extracts. It can help enhance your body's production of its own natural fat burners. Without plenty of L-tyrosine, the body cannot support maximum fat burning regardless of how few calories you eat or how much you exercise.*
Green coffee extract helps reduce after-meal glucose surges*
Diet Stack includes a special green coffee bean extract that contains a high level of chlorogenic acids. This ingredient helps reduce excess glucose. With less glucose available, the body burns more fat for energy rather than glucose, helping you stay in the fat-burning zone.*
Order a bottle of Diet Stack today and look slimmer in no time!
Formulated to help:
Maximize fat loss with six key diet ingredients. This formula includes clinically validated amounts of bitter orange extract (about 325 mg in 2 capsules) and the metabolism-enhancing catechin, EGCG (about 135 mg in 2 capsules) from green tea extract.
L-tyrosine is a precursor to metabolic fat-burners.
Synetrim® CQ (about 150 mg in 2 capsules) is an all-natural, multi-patented weight loss ingredient that helps modulate the absorption of dietary fat, carbohydrates and starch-derived sugar.
Green coffee bean extract (about 100 mg in 2 capsules) helps modulate after-meal glucose surges.
To get lean, consume moderate calories, exercise regularly and take Diet Stack.*
Each serving contains about 100 mg of caffeine.

Lions return man Stefan Logan discusses with an official (not shown) whether he called for a fair catch in the first half Saturday night against the Falcons at Ford Field in Detroit. (Robin Buckson/Detroit News)
Allen Park — Just when you thought you'd seen it all as a Lions fan, Stefan Logan catches a free kick and takes a knee at the 4-yard line.
This season has been one long Twilight Zone episode, one absurd, mind-boggling, head-slapping, bizarre moment after another.
Week 3 in Tennessee, the Lions are on the verge of staging one of the great comebacks in history. They are driving for the winning touchdown in overtime, fourth down and inches. The plan is to draw the Titans offside and then take a timeout. Only center Dominic Raiola didn't get the memo and quick-snapped the ball to an unsuspecting Shaun Hill.
Play failed, game over.
"I've been around a lot of crazy games, but I don't think I've ever been around one like that," Schwartz said.
He hasn't been here long enough. For every crazy play this year, there is at least one other in the inglorious history of this franchise to match it.
Raiola's quick snap had the same effect as Don Muhlbach's bad snap in a 2004 loss to the Vikings. The Lions appeared to be sending the game into overtime after a late touchdown catch by Roy Williams, but Muhlbach bounced the snap, the extra point was missed and the Lions lost 28-27.
This year, the Lions' special teams gave up four return touchdowns in two games, a punt and a kick return to the Titans in Week 3, and the same to the Vikings in Week 4. That was unprecedented in the history of the NFL.
But, that was not the first time we've gotten our hearts broken by a kick return.
Flashback to Thanksgiving Day, 1980. Great game between the Lions and Bears; hard-fought, a typical black-and-blue division game. It goes to overtime. Before many could get another plate of food and settle back in, Dave Williams took the kickoff 95 yards for a touchdown. Sudden death, indeed.
Week 11 against the Packers was when the craziness with Titus Young began in earnest. He was lining up in the wrong spots, trying to move other receivers around at the line of scrimmage — just being a complete distraction.
That led to a paid leave, which culminated in one of the most odd and uncomfortable news conference's ever, which ultimately and finally led to him being placed on the injured list.
The Young incident certainly has its rivals in Lions history. Who remembers defensive end Alonzo Spellman, haunted by the demons of bipolar disorder, wandering on a freeway overpass?
Or, how about the famous Tatum Bell-Rudi Johnson episode? Bell was released and Johnson signed and they wound up in the locker room at the same time. Johnson left his luggage unattended and security cameras later showed Bell swiping it.
In that same loss to Green Bay, network television cameras caught receivers coach Shawn Jefferson shouting at offensive coordinator Scott Linehan. That turned out to be a non-issue but the Lions have had their share of assistant coach oddness, as well.
Who remembers Joe Cullen's naked ride through a Wendy's drive-through a few years back?
Week 12 against the Texans brought us another fond Thanksgiving Day memory — the challenge flag.
The Lions were in control, up by 10 points with 7:03 left in the third. On second-and-10 from their own 19, Texans running back Justin Forsett appeared to be tackled at the 26. Replays clearly showed both his knee and elbow hitting the ground after contact. But the whistle never blew and Forsett got up and ran 81 yards to the end zone.
All scoring plays are automatically reviewed, but in his haste, Schwartz threw the challenge flag onto the field. By doing so, he incurred a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty and that penalty negated the review.
"I know the rule," Schwartz said. "You can't challenge a turnover or a scoring play and I overreacted. He was obviously down on the field. I had the flag out of my pocket before he even scored the touchdown.
"I cost us a touchdown."
Dumbest coaching move in franchise history? Hold on. Let's go back to 2002 on a windy day at Soldier Field. Again, the game goes into overtime. The Lions won the coin toss, but head coach Marty Mornhinweg elected to take the wind and not the ball. A sound strategy unless the Bears march down the field, score and win the game without you ever getting possession of the ball.
In that loss to the Texans, by the way, kicker Jason Hanson had a chance to get his coach off the hook. But his 47-yard field goal attempt in overtime hit the upright.
There is plenty of precedent for that particular brand of heartbreak, too, in Lions lore. The one that sticks out the most was Eddie Murray's miss in the 1983 playoff loss to the 49ers. He had kicked a 54-yarder earlier in the game and needed a 43-yarder with 11 seconds left to send the Lions to the next round. Doink.
And that brings us back around to Logan's brain cramp Saturday night. What rivals that?
We'll go back to the glorious 0-16 season of 2008 when a certain backup quarterback named Dan Orlovsky took the snap on a third-and-10 play from his own 1 and promptly rolled to his right and ran out of the back of the end zone.
Listen, as a Lions fan, the one thing you can never say is, "I don't think I've ever seen something like that before." Unless you are talking about the Lions playing in the Super Bowl, you probably have.

Tigers slugger Miguel Cabrera went 1-for-4 in Game 2. (Robin Buckson / Detroit News)
Tigers manager Jim Leyland is delivered daily printouts of every Tigers story published that day. He also loves to read what is going on around Major League Baseball and he brushes up on what is being said about his opponents.
Some stories make him chuckle. Some anger him and some he simply throws in the trash and shakes his head. This might be one of those columns.
The Tigers should bat Miguel Cabrera fifth in the lineup for the rest of the playoffs and Victor Martinez third. This is probably where Leyland stops reading and moves on to the next story.
But hear me out.
The Tigers are not scoring runs even though the American League Division Series is tied 1-1 heading into Monday�s Game 3 at Comerica Park. They scored three runs in the first inning of Game 1 and have yet to score since.
The Tigers are batting .268 for this series and just .219 since that three-run first inning.
In baseball you place your best hitter third. Martinez is that guy. The new Cabrera is not. And he has not been the Tigers� best hitter in a long time. I do not think he will catch fire again. Old Miggy is the baddest man on the planet. New Miggy is injured and hobbled and is not the same player. You will not see old Miggy until spring training.
Falling numbers
Too often in sports we base our decisions on the past and reputation. When someone turns mediocre we do not adjust, hoping this person recaptures the past. It often does not happen. Fans say they would rather have 80 percent Miggy than 100 percent of any other Tiger.
I contend he is 60 percent Miggy.
There is no leg drive. There is no power. And when he does power one into the gap it is an automatic single, not a double. Then Cabrera becomes an immediate liability on the basepaths. He clogs them like hair in the shower drain.
Here is my proof.
Healthy Cabrera has been the best hitter in baseball the past three years. Injured Cabrera is the sixth-best hitter on the Tigers. He will probably win a second straight Most Valuable Player Award after batting .348 with 44 home runs and 137 RBIs for the season.
However in the last 30 games of the season Cabrera batted .294 with one home run and seven RBIs. Let�s put that in prospective. Austin Jackson (12), Omar Infante (13), Alex Avila (8), Prince Fielder (11) and V-Mart (10) have more RBIs.
Avila (.345), Martinez (.342), Fielder (.329), Hunter (.320) and Infante (.312) have hit better.
Now why should he hit fifth? Here is my philosophy. Martinez is hitting for a higher average and for more power. If Hunter or Jackson gets on base he has a better chance of knocking them in.
Speed first
Let�s go beyond the numbers. If Martinez hits a ball to the wall with two outs he will leg out a double. Fielder can knock him in with a single.
If Cabrera hits a two-out ball to the wall he will be standing on first base. It will take a three singles or a home run by Fielder (which he rarely hits in the postseason) to bring in Cabrera.
Why Cabrera fifth? If Jackson, Hunter, V-Mart and Fielder are on then he will have a better opportunity to do his job and knock people in. If he does that, who cares if he clogs up the bases afterwards?
What if Oakland walks Cabrera? That�s fine. You simply bring up somebody who is hitting better.
The Tigers, of course, could come home and hit the cover off the ball. They are a much better team at home than on the road.
Yes, this is a bit of an overreaction. But this is a short series. You must make decisions in a blink of an eye.
Leyland won�t make such a move. No manager would. But it is something to think about.
But I wonder if Leyland is throwing this sucker in the garbage can or sitting at his desk rubbing his chin.

Grants & Funding
Grants & Funding
Where to Search for Funding
Are you seeking funding for research or training in a particular area? Now that GrantsNet has been retired, our staff has compiled a list of other places you can search for information on funding programs. Unfortunately, most of them require a subscription for access.
- Grants.gov lists all current discretionary funding opportunities from 26 agencies of the United States government, including the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, the Department of Energy, and many others -- in other words, all the most important public funders of research in the United States.
- NIH funds research in just about every area that's remotely related to human health and disease. This page includes extensive information about NIH grants, as well as a place to search NIH funding programs. NIH also has an advanced search page, which offers a wide range of search options.
- An independent federal agency, the U.S. National Science Foundation funds approximately 20 percent of all federally supported basic research conducted at America's colleges and universities. This is the place to search for NSF funding programs.
- Run by the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU), Grant Search includes 2,000 private and federal funding opportunities. A paid institutional membership is required for access.
- This subscription-based resource is hosted and managed by Cazoodle, Inc.
- Run by InfoEd International, SPIN (the Sponsored Programs Information Network) claims to be the most widely used funding opportunity database in the world. An institutional subscription is required for access.
- Funding Opportunities. Pivot claims the "largest, most comprehensive database of available funding," with 700 member institutions. Individuals can register free, but this won't get you access to the funding database.
- Based in London, Research Professional provides an international option for people seeking research-funding programs. A paid subscription is required for access.

The guest presenter at the meeting was Katrina Wingfield, Chairman of the ACCA Regulatory Board, who presented the Board's annual report for 2012.
The Regulatory Board was established after the AGM in May 2008 and brings together all of ACCA's arrangements for regulation and discipline in a single entity. The Board stands at arm's length from Council and the majority of its members are lay individuals.
The report of the Board for 2012 focused on the outcomes of the Board's Regulatory Procedures Working Party, recruitment of regulatory and disciplinary panel members and lead regulator inspection reports. Council was pleased to note that the report overall underscored the Board's commitment to continuous improvement in regulation and was reassured that, going forward, the Board would continue to provide proactive oversight of ACCA's disciplinary and regulatory processes.
A number of other issues were considered in Council's formal sessions.
- Council met in discussion groups to debate the topic 'ACCA's growth ambition'.
- Council considered the regular report of the Chief Executive (Helen Brand). The report covered ACCA's performance as well as a review of ACCA strategic development and developments in the wider profession.
- On a recommendation from Resource Oversight Committee, Council approved the proposed budget for the organisation for 2013-2014. Following a recommendation from a group of standing committee chairmen, Council also approved achievement measure targets put in place to track ACCA's strategic performance in 2013-2014.
- A report was received on the progress of ACCA's initiatives to deliver public value. Public value encompasses working in the public interest, but it also includes ACCA's core purpose of providing opportunity to individuals and, through that process, providing businesses and economies with ethical financial professionals who will help the grow and prosper. It also encompasses the work ACCA carries out to develop the profession globally and its leadership in areas such as corporate social responsibility and integrated reporting.
- Council confirmed Alexandra Chin as its preferred nominee for Vice President 2013-2014. (The formal elections for ACCA's Officers will take place at the Annual Council meeting immediately following the AGM on 19 September 2013).
In a break with usual practice, Council also heard from a panel of external experts discussing future trends, for the global economy generally as well as in digital media, and the expectations of the workforce of the future. The outputs of the panel session will be used to inform a series of scenarios to support the development of ACCA's strategy beyond 2015.
Council's next meeting will be in London on 15 June 2013.

That night, my girlfriend told me cops were looking for me, and I should hide out at some punk house. So I stay at this guy Brandon's house, it's this beat the fuck up house in the ghetto, and I crash there for the night. While I was hanging out, everybody's smoking a pipe, and I hit it too; assuming it's weed. It was, mostly. Later, I found out it was laced with heroin.In general, I always found that mixing intoxicants, other than occasionally getting drunk & stoned, is a bad idea. Fans of speedballing might tell you different, but I wouldn't listen to them.]]>
First, I was just happy to sit with everyone, but then I got really sleepy. I kind of folded up into a ball on the couch and hid my head. To me, it felt like I was on the inside of an old television; when the channel "flips" and you see it rolling over and over, and each time I closed my eyes, the momentum would increase; but each time I opened them I would come to a crashing halt that was terrifying. I could overhear people around me talking; like I was a lightweight, and that I was passed out. Truthfully, I didn't sleep all night; I was even awake when someone took my wallet and someone else drew on me; I just couldn't move. Later I found out the cops were not looking for me and that whole night was a total waste of time.
"Moderate daily consumption of caffeinated coffee appears to be the best dietary option for long-term protection against Alzheimer's memory loss,"and further
A study tracking the health and coffee consumption of more than 400,000 older adults for 13 years, and published earlier this year in the New England Journal of Medicine, found that coffee drinkers reduced their risk of dying from heart disease, lung disease, pneumonia, stroke, diabetes, infections, and even injuries and accidents.I may have to up my dosage.]]>
I tried Piracetam once, but either I was ripped off or they had no effect on me.
My policy is to take a quarter-dose of anything I haven't tried before, just to get the feel of the mental effects at a low level so I know how to handle them at higher doses.

I got this few years ago for Christmas. It is very easy to solve, in both directions. From 5 to 10, I think it should be level 3. Other than that, the idea is great - having this symbol in a puzzle.
Nah, really easy. Falls apart, really...

Waza Flo players work regular jobs to support themselves, and practice and play on their own time. (Daniel Mears/Detroit News)
Tino Scicluna is on his way to the doctor's office as he makes his way through traffic in Oakland County.
He's worried his recent abdominal pain might be something serious and prevent him from playing soccer.
"I'd really be bummed if I could not play," he said.
This isn't just any soccer match.
Scicluna is part owner and a midfielder for Waza Flo, Detroit's forgotten pro soccer team, which has worked its way into the final stages of two of the biggest indoor tournaments in the nation — the U.S. Open Cup and the Ron Newman Cup.
First up is the U.S. Open Cup final this weekend.
And the opponent is only the best team — the San Diego Sockers, who have won 13 national titles and are the favorites to win again. The match starts at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at the Melvindale Ice Arena.
"We can play with all the best teams in the country," said Scicluna, 36. "Last year, the national tournament was about us seeing what San Diego brings to the table. We not only had to get familiar with their team, but with their crowd, stadium and environment.
"We are totally mentally prepared (this year)."
After this weekend's match, the Waza Flo heads to San Diego for the Newman Cup semifinals March 10 against the winner of the Dallas Sidekicks/Rio Grande Valley Flash match. San Diego plays the Las Vegas Legends in the other semifinal. The final is March 11
Labor of love
The Waza Flo is made up of regular guys who work 9-to-5 jobs and hustle each week.
But mostly, the players are area coaches. They coach high school, college and at three of the top local club teams — Waza, Plymouth and the Rush.
Players are typically paid $100 a game, and sometimes a little more, depending on skill.
But nobody is getting rich here. It's about soccer.
One of the goals is to grow the sport in Detroit.
Sure, soccer is not a big deal in Detroit, but this game is different.
You see, the Waza Flo play in the Professional Arena Soccer League. Games are played on an ice rink covered with turf.
You see checking and bumping — and tempers flare. Think Red Wings-Avalanche, and you've got PASL soccer.
This sport is a labor of love.
And all the pain? Well, it's worth it.
Just ask Scicluna, who isn't optimistic about playing this weekend.
"I am not feeling good about it," he said. "This is the price of getting old, I guess."

Colombia's got the makings of a premier tourist destination, not to mention a complete turn-around in terms of socio-economics in just a few decades, so why is it known for cocaine fields, drug trafficking, and coffee?
It may take a long time for Colombia to outgrow its wild-west, kingpin controlled image that is reiterated every few months or so with stories in the media about kidnappings and other acts of violence, but slowly and surely the country is pulling itself out from under the control of ne'er-do-wells.
What to do
All that remains of some of Colombia's ancient civilizations are stone towers in the jungle covered by vines and plants. As excavation work is done, tourists can see these and other archaeological sites, such as San Agustin and Tierradentro.
Off the coast of Colombia, Isla Gorgona, a former prison island, now has abundant wildlife and optimum diving conditions just offshore.
Getting there
There are flights from all around the world to Colombia each day and as the country further empowers and enriches its people their frequency will grow. Colombian tourism is on the rise and as it increases, the perception of Colombia as a dangerous destination will fall away.
Where to stay
Your location determines the quality of accommodations to be found in Colombia. There are plenty of hotels in the city, from five star establishments to budget rooms, and hostels are part of the tourism industry as well.
