Federal officials have opened another avenue for advanced communications for agencies as the government expands the common marketplace for commercial satellite communications.
The General Services Administration and the Defense Information Systems Agency officials formed the satellite communications partnership in August 2009, intending to provide customers with a single platform for delivering critical communications services.
On Aug. 24, they announced a second set of indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (ID/IQ) contracts for the satellite services. GSA and DISA awarded Custom Satellite Communications (SATCOM) Solutions (CS2) contract to eight businesses. It's part of the Future Commercial Satellite Communications (COMSATCOM) Services Acquisition (FCSA) program. The program is designed to allow agencies to buy customized, customer-defined solutions that include satellite bandwidth, teleport access, and network management. Their program also allows agencies to purchase the equipment needed for satellite communications, and engineering support such as integration, operations, and maintenance.
"The FCSA program demonstrates how GSA's focus on collaboration with our customers has led to a solution that makes it easier and more affordable for federal agencies to get secure satellite services on an as-needed basis," said Mary Davie, GSA's acting Federal Acquisition Service commissioner.
The new IDIQ contract gives rounds out the program.
"The award of the final FCSA end-to-end service area completes the new business model and positions us to acquire comprehensive, technically superior and cost-effective COMSATCOM services in a more competitive manner for partners," David Simpson, DISA vice director and rear admiral in the U.S. Navy, said in a statement.
The award completes the new business model and positions the government "to acquire comprehensive, technically superior and cost-effective [satellite] services in a more competitive manner for partners," Rear Adm. David Simpson, DISA vice director, said in a statement.
CS2 awardees are:
The CS2 contracts have five-year contract period and ceiling of $2.6 billion. GSA and DISA announced awards for the companion CS2-SB small business contracts for smaller scale end-to-end solutions and professional satellite support services earlier this year.

The Sisters area appeals to so many people for its laid-back and relaxing life style. And that is why we invested in vacation rentals and real estate since 2002. Relax in a wonderful setting with beautiful Three Sisters view. The people are friendly with attractive small town attitudes. One of the highlights of our guests is getting to be personally welcomed by our concierge, Jill Stanford. Comments about Jill can be accessed by clicking on the remarks from guests. You will find so many mention Jill and how friendly and helpful she is to everyone who stays at our condo home. Jill is an author of various books from western cookbooks and western themes and most likely is currently working on another book. She makes sure your stay is comfortable and if you need anything you won't find a more friendly face and attitude on this green earth. Without Jill we'd have just another place to stay but with her help she has increased our guest list and as a result have so many people choosing to come back.
David & Victoria Mendenhall purchased this condo in 2002
Prior to making the decision to invest in Sisters, David taught high school in Redmond, was the first sales associate at Black Butte Ranch in 1970, built the first residence at Black Butte Ranch, built an office warehouse in the Sisters industrial park in 1998 and has known the area since 1967. Both David and wife Victoria offer 3 vacations rentals close-in to the heart of Sisters. Two Condo Homes and a Cottage Home make up their vacation rentals and each have return guests that fill up the calendar a year ahead of special events and favorite occasions. Our other vacation rentals are numbers 337593 (Cottage) and 442970 (One Bedroom Suite) - all within a block of one another.
One of the things we find is that so many guest want to just park their cars and walk downtown. Well, the walk is short in that the first gallery is one block away. Sisters famous Sisters Coffee Company is two blocks with its lodge style overstuffed seating and internet access at your fingertips. So take your laptop, put your feet up with a great latte and pastry and enjoy a leisurely morning. Our favorite pastime is simply seeing what is new in town. The shops are varied and some outstanding artist are ready to make small talk. Sisters is also known for golf courses in the area such as Black Butte Ranch and Aspen Lakes. Also the fishing is just minutes away either at Three Creeks Lake or the Metolius River, a favorite for those with lots of patience and a fly fishing setup. Oh, we can't forget to mention bicycling is one of our interests and walking. Walking trails start right our front door in Pine Meadows so bring your best walking shoes. The Three Sisters look like you can reach out and touch them. So put some coffee in your cup, pull up a deck chair and enjoy the view and our suite and make it your home-away while staying in Sisters. Its been a return home for 8 years to scores of travelers like you.
We are deeply grateful for our week in your terrific condo in Sisters.
The town has changed so much since I grew up around there in the 40's and 50's. I really like the new development and the ability to take walks in such beauty. The condo kitchen was the best equipped I've stayed in. Thank you for your hospitality.
Robin Moore
Great place! Super clean and comfortable. Can't beat the location either. Walking distance to downtown Sidters. Looking forward to coming back soon!
The unit is lovely. Clean, open, nice feeling and so close to walk to everything.
We would stay again.
Thank you Jill for your hospitality.

I booked on line for two nights basing selection decision on pictures and reviews. When we arrived and looked around, my husband immediately says "wow, why don't we add one more night, " which we were able to do. Condo is very nicely furnished and decorated. Location is perfect as can walk easily to town for shopping, eating, and parks. Would definitely recommend.
The location could not have been more perfect. Walking to all Sisters has to offer was so much fun.
The condo was beautiful and so comfortable. We will be back next year
My husband and I and our two adult children, were invited to a wedding in Black Butte. The Lodge there was booked so we decided to look at the Sisters area for a place to stay. We were so glad the Lodge was booked, because we never would have experienced this wonderful location! We have stayed in many VRBO's and this is by far the nicest one yet. Beautifully decorated, very clean. The beds were super comfortable. We appreciated the detail in what was expected of us at check in and check out. Jill greeted us right away to see if we needed anything. We had one issue with the keyless entry and she was right there to help us out. The only negative for anyone would be if you could not climb steps easily. It is an upstairs unit. Would I recommend this place? Absolutely! We will definitely be going back to explore more of the area. (Sisters Coffee Company is just around the corner!)
The place is on the edge of Sisters with great views of the mountains. Spotlessly clean; the greatest onsite manager(concierge), Jill Stanford who is delightful, helpful, gracious and available for anything one needs. There were issues with the air-conditioning during our stay and Jill was so accommodating to make sure we were comfortable. Beds are really great....supportive, yet pleasantly relaxing and not hard as rocks. Kitchen is well supplied with all necessary cooking equipment and tools for cooking complicated or simple meals.
It was great to discover salt, pepper, flour, sugar in the pantry so one could immediately cook. The stove and refrigerator were spotless as were the bathrooms.
We have stayed in both the Cottonwood Suite which is one bedroom on the ground floor and in the Birch Suite with 2 bedrooms and 2 baths,on second floor with a small balcony with room for 4 to enjoy the sunset or cocktails in the evening or coffee in the AM.
We recommend this to anyone who wants to stay in Sisters as a destination or as a spot from which to explore hiking, biking,
skiing in the vicinity.
There are several good restaurants within walking distance of the suites and a fine small outdoor pool within 1 1/2 blocks of the place plus tennis courts.
The Open Door serves wonderful salads, good entrees, and a good wine list for both lunch and dinner.
We highly recommend this place and the manager Jill and owner David Mendenhall.

Re: New here , would love advice
Thanks so much! So keep on keeping on then and maybe acquire one more revolving credit line? I was reading a few things on here saying that a high limit with low balance is the key thing with that? Our debt ratio is always awesome, so at least there's that!
What are GW letters? Are they just letters that state the account is paid in full?

Haz clic aquí para ver perfil de Naphtali en Español
Naphtali completed her studies in Bilingual Theater, a degree that combines her passions for writing, theater and Hispanic language and culture. She particularly enjoys working with women and has carried out two extensive projects addressing femininity: one in Chile, the other in Chicago.
Whether teaching ESL or directing a play, her leadership style is participatory. Naphtali considers her role to be primarily that of facilitator, helping a group express its needs/thoughts/ideas and shape these into a cohesive whole. While supporting ArtCorps' partnersip with Servicio Jesuita para el Desarrollo and Oxfam America, Naphtali used theater-based education to promote dialogue and behavior change around women's rights and gender-based violence.
She believes that through art we learn to see through the eyes of others and to express our own perspectives with self-respect and love. In particular, theater provides a safe space for both personal expression and community mobilization.
I've grown up fishing on a remote island in Alaska every summer of my life. Physical labor and blue-collar workers are close to my heart. However, when I entered college, and subsequently the art world, I felt alienated from the people I grew up with. The art I learned in school does not attract people who work with their hands or who live in rural places. ArtCorps excited me because it blends together the two things that I most love: rural communities and art for social change.

A northeast Missouri convicted felon who has already served his time is once again in trouble with the law.
Jamie Potter, 35, of Novinger, is now charged with two counts of unlawful possession of a firearm after the Adair County Sheriff's Office carried out a search warrant at his home Friday night.
Potter is being held in the Adair County jail on $25,000 cash-only bond.
Court documents state that deputies found two shotguns and a rifle along with ammunition for all three of the weapons.
Right now, Adair County Sheriff Robert Hardwick says the investigation is continuing but he can't elaborate at this time.
We will bring you updates as we learn more about the ongoing case.

The caffeine influx doesn't stop there; the stimulant has infiltrated all sorts of products, from candy to gum to alcohol. But let's not get too crazy, guys; the Mayo Clinic says that 200 to 300 milligrams of caffeine a day isn't harmful for most adults, but more than 500 milligrams can cause some complications.
So to help you figure out just how to replace a daily cup of coffee, we've rounded up nine crazy ways to get your caffeine fix, comparing them to a standard cup of coffee (85 milligrams) so you can get your fill of candy or hot sauce with a little jolt to power through.

Given that
- $x^x = y$; and
- given some value for $y$
is there a way to expressly solve that equation for $x$?
Given that
is there a way to expressly solve that equation for $x$?
As Aryabhata mentions this is another application for the Lambert W function. The solution to your problem is presented in the wikipedia article. Using elementary substitutions you have
$$x=\frac{\ln(y)}{W(\ln y)}$$
If you are interested in the asymptotic growth of $x$ relative to $y$, note that for every $z$: $W(z) = \ln{z} - \ln\ln{z} + o(1)$. Hence:
$$x=\frac{\ln(y)}{\ln{\ln y} - \ln\ln{\ln y} + o(1)} = \Theta\left( \frac{\ln y}{\ln \ln y}\right)$$
You should try WolframAlpha for similar problems. WolframAlpha would solve y=x^x for y=5 as shown here (using Lamber W Function as suggested before).

What if Felix Savon and Teofilo Stevenson had gone pro? Could they have become world champions?

they were dam good so I woud say yes. but in perspective Stevenson was probably in his prime when he whacked out john tate in the 76 Olympics. sometime within the next couple years ali lost title and then reclaimed it v spinks, larry holmes beat ken Norton for his belt and john tate beat coezee for a belt and then lost it to mike weaver. given a standard, no not standard but accelerated build up for teo as a pro from after his 76 gold medal games, there's about 4 ways for teo to have gotten a world belt- imo he whup spinks, old ali, ken Norton, john tate n mike weaver. so yeah teo would been a champ. savon? looked real solid at 201 at his prime which I think was like mid 90's but i'm not so sure. but if that's so, I doubt he fights cruiser which was 190 back then so that puts him with lenox lewis, olivermccall, Tyson,bowe n holyfield so not so sure if he gets a world title. even if he was to fight Bruno for that belt or even herbie hide for the wbo belt, I'm not so sure. so Stevenson definitely woulda been a world champ, savon maybe not

It's debatable, but in Teofilo Stevenson's case, no.He couldn't beat Igor Vysotsky in two tries, and he's going to face a bunch of those types as a pro.Plus, Greg Page would've gave him the beating he didn't get to give him in the amateurs.

Stevenson sure as hell doesn't beat Holmes (ie the real champion from the late '70s onward). Maybe before that he could have lifted the title from a washed-up untrained Ali the way Leon Spinks did. Once Holmes came up Stevenson had no chance.

igor vysotsky in two tries? we got a historian in here, so when did the vysotsky fights happen n y did vysotsky not pick up a gold medal in 72 or 76? did page not fight Stevenson? I know jimmy clark did fight them both and he beat page but not Stevenson but they mighta fought more than once so I don't know what the actual records between them all were. anyway, I'm stickin with my story, teo gets a belt easy, not against holmes but against the aforementioned other four belt holders

I believe the question was whether Stevenson could have become a world champion. I presume that means a real world champion and not a phony-ass alphabeltholder.

There is such a difference in the pro and amateur game. Many great amateurs have been knocked off before the even get in the rankings. My first impression is that the would do well because they were great amateurs but you never can tell. Take Jorge L Gonzalez for example. He wasn't quite Savon or Stevenson but he did beat Riddick Bowe and Lennox Lewis in the amateurs.
Jimmy Clark beat Stevenson in the amateurs but never cracked the top ten as a pro.
I guess it would depend on how they were handled as a professional and how well they were managed. But you never know.

Can you use the Windows 7 WAIK and procedure to image Vista?
No. You have to use the WAIK that applies to the operating system in question.
Most of the WAIK for 7 work on Vista just fine. You'd have to be more specific as to what you're trying to accomplish. Vista didn't have all the features Win7 does, using a newer tool doesn't add those features.
It's important to understand the difference between WAIK, which really gives you a framework to build automated installations around, versus the imaging tools themselves (ImageX)
I have used the ImageX tool itself successfully on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7, including multiple patch levels/version variations. It operates on the file system level, so it should functionally work with any OS that can install into FAT16/FAT32/NTFS

Accounting and Economic Rates of Return: a Dynamic Econometric Investigation
Many studies have questioned empirical utilization of accounting data as internal rates of return would be more consistent with the relevant economic concept. The paper investigates the dynamic relationships between different measures of accounting rates of return (ARRs) and different approximations for the internal rates of returns (IRRs). In contrast with the prevailing case-study investigations, one considers a panel for quoted Brazilian firms in the manufacturing industry along the 1988-3/2003-2 period. Granger causality tests are considered and even though the results are not completely clear cut, some discernible uni-directional patterns emerge. In particular, there seems to be informational content between economic and accounting rates of return, between ROA (Net Profits/Total Assets) and PM (Gross Profits/ Operational Income), and internal rates of return. This seems to indicate that there is some validity in using accounting rates of return in certain economic studies.

March 29 News: Just Because Climate Change Is Irreversible Doesn't Mean It Is Unstoppable
Confusion over what cutting carbon emissions will do is complicating the whole issue, says a new article in Science. [Climate Central]
There is widespread confusion about the near-term benefits of reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and that misunderstanding may be complicating the formidable task of reducing manmade global warming, argue two climate researchers in Science in a story published Thursday.
The scientists, Damon Matthews of Concordia University in Montreal and Susan Solomon of MIT, make the case that policymakers, the media, and to some extent the public have misunderstood the implications of two key concepts — the "irreversibility" of climate change, and the amount of global warming already in the pipeline due to historical greenhouse gas emissions.
The duo challenge what they say have become pervasive misinterpretations of recent scientific results, including findings from a 2010 National Research Council report they helped write that said that the amount of global warming to date is essentially irreversible on the timescale of about 1,000 years. That study has been repeatedly cited by policymakers to justify delays in tackling carbon emissions by making global warming appear to be inexorable, regardless of what actions are taken.
But Matthews and Solomon rebut that justification, writing instead that, "the irreversibility of past changes does not mean that future warming is unavoidable."
In addition, they said the notion that global warming would continue to take place even if the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere were to be frozen at current levels — rather than increasing year-after-year as they are now — has also helped justify inaction.

Thanks for the clarification from Solomon and Matthews. People are always looking for an excuse to do nothing, and the "it's hopeless anyway" is one of the sillier ones. The future is a curve with spikes, and effective measures to reduce emissions are all valuable.
Some oil company people privately repeat the "we're screwed anyway" meme. This is selfish and cowardly.
How to green the desert and reverse climate change:
There's a side of me that wants very badly to believe Mr. Savory. Then there's the other side that equates his story with winning the Nigerian Lottery. I'll be receiving my $10M prize shortly after sending them $6K to cover "shipping and handling".
As the earth heats up, the equatorial updraft that gives rise to Hadley cells will gain intensity; which will lead to the expansion of the cells; which will push the cell's downdraft poleward; which will move desertification poleward; which will result in new deserts in southern US, southern Europe, etc. Should we turn these areas into grassland pastures now, getting ahead of the curve.
Corrections please. PLEEEZ!!
Mr. Savory has a nice project but he hasn't demonstrated that grasslands alone could meet key quantitative requirements to "reverse" climate change.
If he stopped making overblown claims for it, grassland re-establishment is still a good thing to do. It's just not the only thing that could help.
Could grasslands devour the excess carbon widely distributed in the atmosphere (183 billion tonnes of carbon as of last year), as well as keep up with new carbon inputs, and do all that so quickly that the oceans cool down and the Arctic re-freezes, before.. I hope you get the idea.
A new study says that it's possible Sandy-like superstorms could make their way to Europe ..
BATTEN down the hatches, western Europe. Come the end of the century, superstorm Sandys could be battering your beaches. In the Bay of Biscay, the model predicts the average number of yearly hurricanes will increase from one to six
OMG, France with all it's nuclear plants…and the Bay of Biscay is exactly in the middle of Western Europe, affecting London, Spain…

Biochar slashes bioenergy soil emissions
Adding charcoal to land used to grow bioenergy crops can greatly increase their overall benefit in helping cut our greenhouse-gas emissions, scientists have shown. http://planetearth.nerc.ac.uk/news/story.aspx?id=1418&cookieConsent=A
It's been a long, dark winter in Germany. In fact, there hasn't been this little sun since people started tracking such things back in the early 1950s. Easter is around the corner, and the streets of Berlin are still covered in ice and snow. But spring will come, and when the snow finally melts, it will reveal the glossy black sheen of photovoltaic solar panels glinting from the North Sea to the Bavarian Alps.
Solar panels line Germany's residential rooftops and top its low-slung barns. They sprout in orderly rows along train tracks and cover hills of coal mine tailings in what used to be East Germany. Old Soviet military bases, too polluted to use for anything else, have been turned into solar installations.
Twenty-two percent of Germany's power is generated with renewables. Solar provides close to a quarter of that. The southern German state of Bavaria, population 12.5 million, has three photovoltaic panels per resident, which adds up to more installed solar capacity than in the entire United States. http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and_science/alternative_energy/2013/03/solar_power_in_germany_how_a_cloudy_country_became_the_world_leader_in_solar.html
Worst stall …. lol
This guy doesn't really deserve your attention. He's been spewing his nonsense in Forbes for some time now.
And this article is… well…. more of the same.
Worst of All has a CV that just invites contempt. UK Independence Party, Adam Smith Institute, etc, a Rightwing waste of carbon.
So they put solar installations on waste ground, rather than their precious areas of biodiversity richness. Sounds sensible to me.
'There is no Plan B; there is no Planet B'
Published on Feb 12, 2013
The challenges we face for our climate, environment and sustainable development are daunting. But the spirit of those who are working on these problems, and the solutions they put forward, are promising. Highlights from the Earth Institute's 2012 State of the Planet conference.
Portions of the new Matthews & Solomon paper seem to conflict with one another as well as with Solomon 2009 and Matthews and Caldeira 2008. For example, can someone please explain how the following statements in the new paper can both be true?
— "There would indeed be unrealized warming associated with current CO2 concentrations, but only if they were held fixed at current levels…"
— "If emissions were to cease abruptly, global average temperatures would remain roughly constant for many centuries…"
Quite right, any ground cover is better than none but is insufficient. And as I have noted here before, his claims for Australia are contradicted by 200 years of evidence of destruction by hooved animals, ME

Aerial photo and flawed headline at:
Here is a plan which is much more likely to work:
Irrigated afforestation of the Sahara and Australian Outback to end global warming
although it would be expen$ive.
I hate knocking what seems like a good idea but it's not just the $ costs. It is also the fact that if nothing grows now, it's probably that the soil is so nutrient poor that even hardy old natives can't survive. Artesian supplies are low and at the moment, we are cutting irrigation because we have to return more of it to the Murray-Darling system to try and save it. Just about every change we have made to this poor old country has proven disastrous and ideas such as building channels from the sea to Lake Eyre (below sea level and dry again after 4 wet years) are always found to be full of holes, ME
If global emissions keep increasing by about 3-4% annually we will probably reach 6C and beyond, a level of temperature increase that may be incompatible with civilization as we know it. Is it really that hard to understand that emissions should be reduced?
Desalinate and pump fresh water for irrigation. Plant acacias to fix nitrogen where needed. Add PK fertilizer if required. Just takes lots of money.
David, I can guess what PK means from the periodic table but it sounds like more of the same, and we already have desals. What we need here is more respect for the uniqueness of this country and learning from our first people who did respect it and looked after it for 60,000+ years. Hopefully, some of them will make it into the future, ME
Hilariously in the UK, a land which long ago surrendered its engineering and manufacturing supremacy, we still get self opinionated poltroons pontificating in the meeja about how ignorant, stupid and unworkable the Energiewende is, even as its success emerges daily as the Germans beaver away industriously on problem solving. Truly pathetic.
A wind energy company's view of the fossil fuelled dirty tricks in the UK meeja:
We are getting too late for money as real resources become fundamentally limiting.
"Then there is the impending shortage of two fertilizers: phosphorus (phosphate) and potassium (potash). These two elements cannot be made, cannot be substituted, are necessary to grow all life forms, and are mined and depleted…."
"The world's blind spot when it comes to the fertilizer problem is seen also in the shocking lack of awareness on the part of governments and the public of the increasing damage to agriculture by climate change; for example, runs of extreme weather that have slashed grain harvests in the past few years."
– Jeremy Grantham
Link to Grantham's full column in Nature:
Link to Joe Romm's blog about Grantham:
Actually, if everyone did essentially nothing–specifically if they did no burning of fossil fuels–our gw problems would be much reduced.
In stead, all of us are 'doing' quite a lot–mostly making things much worse by burning up fossil fuels.
The fact is that some scientists have, in fact concluded, that even with immediate cessation of further CO2 emissions, we are likely to see continued increases in atmospheric levels of that gas for centuries, because of the feedbacks that are now kicking in.
I take that as a call to be even more careful to minimize my own contribution to the problem (no flying, hardly any meat eating or driving…) and to put even more pressure on others to make required changes, especially those with the most power.
We shouldn't fall into the denialist mind set of ignoring science that we find inconvenient, no matter which way it falls.
I agree.
But do keep in mind that native grasses and flowers are not just 'ground cover.' Up to 95% of their mass is in the root system, which can go more than five meters down. That can store a lot of carbon. And in the mid latitudes, prairie restoration is preferable to forestation, because of albedo issues.
But, as I have pointed out on other forums, thinking that any one approach will 'solve' all gw problems it overly simplistic, at best.
Grass and cattle (or bison), no matter how well managed. And water is exactly what is disappearing from much of the American West, the Plains states, and most other areas that would otherwise be good candidates for this approach.
Oops, the first sentence of that last paragraph should read:
"Grass and cattle (or bison), no matter how well managed, still need water to survive–lots of it for cattle, less for native prairie grasses."
It's exactly the same in Australia. The Murdoch obscenity dominates our print MSM, and its flag-shit, 'The Australian', is running a determined campaign against wind power, pushing the utterly fraudulent mass hysteria of 'wind turbine syndrome'. Its 'Anti-Environment Editor' leads the push, which is nicely Orwellian. The previous 'Anti-Environment Editor' was recruited straight from the coal industry. You couldn't make this stuff up. And, needless to say, the Murdoch infection hates environmentalists with blind fury, and expends a great deal of effort on relentlessly vilifying, demonising and defaming them.
In areas that can't be forested because of lack of water, elevation or ??, this could be a great program. But in areas that are or were or could be forested, I think food forests are a better use of the land.
It may have a disadvantage in albedo but the multiple levels of production, physically as in canopy, small trees, shrubs, herbs, ground cover, vines and root crops and conceptually with food, fiber, mulch, medicine, and other products should more than make up for it. A good part of the North American plains were created out of forest, marginal forest and savannah by burning, cutting and grazing; forest could be re-established there. "Lose your forest, lose your rain" is a popular saying in permaculture; many examples of reclamation projects are available without livestock. Savory's grassland program is not the only way to reclaim degraded land. Though I have no research to back it up (yet) I strongly believe that food forest would outsequester grassland in most circumstances. Properly applying succession, such carbon sequestration should happen faster and continue longer at a faster rate. Use of a diversity of plants allows many products as well as many root levels to increase carbon deposition.
For more on this, see the amazing 2 volume Edible Forest Gardens, Dave Jacke and Eric Toensmeier, and http://www.edibleforestgardens.com/
Or you could just use permaculture. No nitrogen needed, hnot much money…
I just read Grantham's essay, and am amazed and astounded and yet not surprised at all by the fact that he/we think/s these things are problems. The answers to them are perfectly clear and yet nearly impossible to implement, because of entrenched bunches of rich people organized into corporations and congregations.
Upcoming shortages in fertilizers can be responded to with permaculture guilds—essentially, constructed ecological communities in which each member helps the other members. Some fix nitrogen (beans, e.g.) others absorb from the soil and accumulate various other nutrients including the P (Phosphorus) and K (Potassium) of the N-P-K number on every bag of fertilizer. But acceptance of permaculture techniques among those who actually produce most of our food has been about as good as acceptance of commuter bicycles by the officers and board of Exxon-Mobil. Industrial agriculture corporations prefer techniques like GMOs and systemic poisoning that have no hope of raising yields or feeding any more people and in fact are likely to lead to crash.
So growth in grain production is down to the population growth rate, and while population growth rate is slowing, so is grain production increase, once warming, flooding, burning, storming and droughting really kick in. He says there's no safety margin, but the world grows enough grain alone to feed everybody on Earth 2500-3600 Calories/day. That doesn't include fruits and vegetables, beans, nuts, mushrooms, and second-day homegrown homemade Tom Kha. And the grain we feed to livestock would feed 3 ½ billion extra people, who are now starving or close to it. All we have to do to tap that safety margin is eat dramatically less meat and use the land to feed people directly, while using guilds like the traditional Native American Three Sisters to increase yields. (Jane Mt. Pleasant of Cornell has gotten a 20% increase in Caloric yield/acre over monocultures.) But of course, everyone who reads that knows the idea is ridiculous; we won't reduce our meat consumption that much. It requires what the rich would consider sacrifice, even though it isn't. I've loved my vegetarian diet for more than 30 years; it's no sacrifice at all. But get half a billion rich white meat eaters to do it just because it will make the difference between billions dying and…not? Yeah, good one. And therein lies our problem. Everything else is at the same time monumentally difficult and unbelievably easy; all that's required is a sufficient application of foot-pounds per square inch on enough square inches, and WWII, the moon landing, and the size of the world's collective arsenal of deadly weapons proved we can do that. We can speed up and solve those, and we'll either be in time or we won't. The real problem, the problem behind the problem, requires slowing down. That's never been done by any whole society in history as far as I know, because to do that allows us to feel everything we speed up to avoid feeling. There are lots of costs to avoiding utter cataclysm now, that may be the biggest.
I strongly disagree with your first sentence.
If we stopped all fossil fuel burning immediately, we would experience a huge surge of additional warming, thanks to the sulfate aerosols (mostly from coal) that would drop out of the atmosphere in months. Man-made aerosols currently shield us from a lot of warming, and eliminating them completely would likely increase the rate of warming by over 50% (according to the IPCC's 2007 report).

PETOSKEY — The Cheboygan Minor Boys (9-10) All-Star baseball team picked up an 8-3 victory over Harbor Springs in a District 13 semifinal contest in Petoskey on Wednesday.
With the win, Cheboygan will face off with Petoskey in the district championship game in Petoskey tonight at 6 p.m. Petoskey handed Cheboygan a 12-0 defeat on Monday.
Daniel Wilcome went 2-for-2 with two RBI to lead Cheboygan, while Cole Hudson had two hits, two RBI, and scored a run, Kaleb Blaskowski had a hit and scored two runs, and Ethan Kujawa went 1-for-2 with a run scored. Henry Stempky Cody Borowicz and Blaine Albury each scored a run to round out Cheboygan in the game.
Albury (seven strikeouts, two hits, two runs) pitched a strong 4 2/3 innings for Cheboygan, while Borowicz (two strikeouts, two hits, one run) tossed the final 1 1/3 innings.
"I thought the kids really responded well after the loss to Petoskey on Monday," said Cheboygan coach Pete Blaskowski. "We ended up giving the kids the day off on Tuesday, and we told them to come back and be focused. They really came out focused in this game, and they played a strong game. They did a very good job both offensively and defensively."
Blaskowski also credited a solid hitting performance by his players on Wednesday.
"We had some kids get some big hits tonight, and we've had kids get many hits throughout this tournament," Blaskowski added. "Daniel Wilcome and Cole Hudson have really continued to hit well for us. Every time they're going up to the plate, they're getting hits for us. We've had good contributions from all around."
Next up will be a chance for Cheboygan to avenge that shutout loss to Petoskey on Monday.
Blaskowski believes his team has a good shot to come out with a victory.
"We talked to them (after the game) about this championship game being the game that we've been practicing for," Blaskowski said. "We want them to come out focused, and no matter what happens, we just want them to come out and play a good game of baseball. These kids are excited for the opportunity they have."

So, even though this is the security policy I set for one machine:
When trying to set passwords they still have to be over 16 characters and meet other various complexity requirements such as having a symbol.
The image used for this machine is Windows 7 Enterprise and not part of a domain (says workgroup is WORKGROUP, though it may have been on a domain at some point when the image was created), however I can't seem to disable the password requirements.
Additionally I've tried resetting the policy using the following commands:
RD /S /Q "%WinDir%\System32\GroupPolicyUsers"
RD /S /Q "%WinDir%\System32\GroupPolicy"
gpupdate /force
to no avail.
What am I missing here that still enforces password requirements?

The Pre K to K Literacy Transition program is in full swing.
Teachers from three local child care centers spent the day learning how to get their little students better ready for Kindergarten.
Last month, Troy University's College of Education selected three day care centers that serve low income families in Dothan.
Teachers say the structure of the program has already inspired them to implement new activities.
"It's a very structured program and I'm learning a lot from it and I'm excited about helping teach it," ABC Academy Director Yvonne Lee said.
"Adding more science social studies and math to your daily lesson plans with the kids," said Angels Child Care Academy Director Latisha Jones.
"We'll read a story as many as three times sometimes even more," Brenda's Preparatory School Director Brenda Gilford said.
Troy University professors will check-in with the centers monthly and conduct an assessment test with the kids before and after the school year

LAKEWOOD — Fifth-seeded Columbine entered its first-round 5A state playoff game with 28th-seeded Mountain Vista on Nov. 5 at Jefferson County Stadium without its leading rusher in junior running back Cameron McDondle because of a back injury.
But the Rebels overcame McDondle's absence and an early 7-0 deficit to defeat Mountain Vista, 28-14, and advance to the second round of the playoffs thanks to two touchdowns from senior running back Jonathan Beverly.
ARVADA — Head coach Ron Woitalwicz wanted to get quarterback Bolton Howes a few carries in the second half, but he was only able to get him two. That's because Howes took both runs all the way to the end zone to invoke the mercy rule in the Eagles' 49-13 rout of Standley Lake on Nov. 5 at the North Area Athletic Complex.
LAKEWOOD — It wasn't exactly the way that Kyle Barnhart wanted to end his high school football career.
The Chatfield senior running back and his Charger teammates were n the mix of a seven-game losing streak, hadn't won since Week 2 and were nowhere near the playoffs.
But they were going out on a winning note if at all possible.
Barnhart rushed for a 44-yard touchdown on Chatfield's first offensive play and the Chargers never looked back in a 42-8 rout of George Washington at Jefferson County Stadium on Nov. 4.
Even though the Halloween candy hasn't yet turned stale, it's time to think about the hunt for the perfect Christmas tree.
The U.S. Forest Service is offering $10 cutting permits for Christmas trees in the Pike National Forest near Buffalo Creek.
Tree-hunters can purchase up to five permits, according to Barbara Timock, spokeswoman for the U.S. Forest Service. Last year the Forest Service sold 7,000 permits. This year, Timock is encouraging people to get their permits early.
Republicans claimed extensive victories in the Nov. 2 election, retaining the District 6 U.S. House seat and sweeping Jefferson County races.
Incumbent Congressman Mike Coffman scored a wide victory over Democratic challenger and fellow former Marine John Flerlage in District 6, garnering 66 percent of the vote. Flerlage, a South Jeffcoairline pilot who campaigned for nearly two years, collected 31 percent, and late entry Rob McNealy, a Libertarian from Aurora,captured about 3 percent.
Jeffco school board members will meet with the public on Nov. 13 at five locations around the county to present the district's 2011-12 budget development process and to gather feedback.
The district will be facing tens of millions of dollars in budget cuts, with the fiscal impact looking grimmer than the previous budget year.
A 44-year-old man faces 45 years in prison after pleading guilty Nov. 3 to sexually assaulting a 29-year-old Lakewood woman near her Green Mountain home in 2009.
Arthur Louis Martinez attacked the woman on July 24, dragging her into a bush and punching her in the face multiple times.
A Lakewood man convicted of repeatedly sexually assaulting and videotaping two sisters while they were unconscious was sentenced Nov. 4 to 32 years in prison.
Timothy Layne Martinez, 32, had previously been tried in court in 2006 for assaulting one of the women, the sister of his sexual partner. Though photographs were found of Martinez assaulting the woman while she was apparently drugged, a lack of evidence led jurors to acquit him.
A 25-year-old Lakewood father was found guilty Nov. 2 in Jefferson County Court in the death of his 9-week-old daughter last Thanksgiving.
A jury found Marcus Anthony Leyba guilty on two counts, first-degree murder of a child by a person in a position of trust and child abuse resulting in death. Leyba, who faces a possible sentence of life in prison without parole, will be sentenced Dec. 17.
Bill Stofer watched as U.S. soldiers disappeared like lemmings into Italy's Rapido River in the winter of 1944. Nazi troops lined the hillside and lit up the night sky with flares as the 36th Division, a group of Texans — many barely old enough to shave — attempted to cross. When the water was full of GIs, the Nazis efficiently dispensed rounds of precise artillery fire and countless mines, ultimately snuffing out nearly 2,000 young lives.

While applying Scrum, the product backlog items are users stories. I have created a sample story on TFS as follows:
As a user, I can signup to system.
I then created the following tasks:
- A login form should be prepared.
- User should fill all fields on the form.
- User should type a valid formatted email.
- User passwords match between.
- If user fills the form successfully, send verification email.
Some of the tasks are frontend (HTML, CSS, etc) and some are backend (send email, etc).
- Should I separate the frontend and backend tasks one to another? And should I separate them into different User Stories?
- Can the tasks be implemented by different developers?

Should Iran have the "right" to nuclear fuel?
There are any number of obstacles that could trip up the nuclear negotiations between Iran and the "P5+1," but the right to "enrich" nuclear fuel should not be one of them.
Iran nuke deal merits support
The last minute nuclear agreement worked out in Geneva on Sunday between Iran and the six-powers group is an important first step and merits the support of all progressive, peace-minded people.

Menstrual Pain (cont.)
Menstrual Cramps Prognosis
Often, it is possible to eliminate menstrual cramps effectively. Anti-inflammatory medications are highly effective. Hormonal birth control decreases the pain most of the time. Cramps also tend to decrease in intensity as a woman ages. Cramps may disappear after a woman's first pregnancy. In cases in which anatomical abnormalities are the cause of the cramps, treatment of the underlying abnormality or condition can bring relief of the pain.

I'm convinced the Viennese re-po men are coming to get me
So I think I'm getting ripped off. Or, at the very least, the victim of an international company's careless mistake. I purchased $192 worth of camera film (Polaroid) over a year ago in October 2009 from an Austrian photography company. Apparently, I was never charged for it and a representative claiming to be from the company emailed me last month (around mid Feb.) informing me of this open payment and that I need to pay this amount. I have no recollection of this order, seeing as I'm a fairly routine customer and this was placed over a year ago. I ignored the first email back in February and they've now sent me another email requesting the $192 payment or threatening to take this to a debt collection agency. I don't think I even have $192 to my name - what should I do??

Hi I am signed up for a half marathon,(CanadaArmy Run), on sept 21st and training hasn't been ideal. Due to injury and a late start i still havent done a long run over 11 km and have been building to a weekly avg of 30km.So with two weeks I'm wondering whether I should drop to the 5km race or wing it and run/ walk the half marathon?
It depends on how you're feeling overall and what your goals are. If you generally feel OK, no injury after-effects or nagging aches and pains, you should be OK to finish the half, either run/walk or just taking it easy. You won't set any records, but the miles you're doing are enough to let you complete the race. If you want to run a race hard though, you're better off going for the 5K.
ACTIVE is the leader in online event registrations from 5k running races and marathons to softball leagues and local events. ACTIVE also makes it easy to learn and prepare for all the things you love to do with expert resources, training plans and fitness calculators.

Hello, Great Plug in! Thank you!
I'm currently working on my own theme page template and am very new at it. I've created this page for the photo albums:
I used php echo to get the short code for the album list on the right and made my own NextGEN template to get the look. I created a page for each album for the list of galleries and linked it all up. I prefer to use the option for the galleries to open in the same page but I lose my album list on the right. I'm sure I'm just missing a line of code but I can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank You

Shatili (Georgian: შატილი) is a historic highland village in Georgia, near the border with Chechnya. It is located on the northern slope of the Greater Caucasus mountains, in the historical Georgian province of Upper Khevsureti, which is now part of the modern-day region (mkhare) of Mtskheta-Mtianeti.
Located in the deep Arghuni gorge at approximate 1,400 meters, the village is actually a unique complex of medieval-to-early modern fortresses and fortified dwellings of stone and mortar which functioned both as a residential area and a fortress guarding the northeastern outskirts of the country. The fortress consists of the terraced structures dominated by flat-roofed dwellings and some 60 towers which cluster together to create a single chain of fortifications.
History and current status[edit]
The population of Shatili, along with that of most of the Khevsureti, was resettled under the pressure from the Soviet authorities to the plains in the early 1950s. In the 1960s, the exotic landscape of the empty village was used as a setting for a series of Georgian films about the past life of the highlanders.[1]
Shatili is still inhabited by a dozen or so families, but is inaccessible by road during wintertime. The village is a favourite destination for tourists and mountain trekkers.

Rogue Postal Worker Caught Trashing Mail
Very illegal.
The Feds began monitoring U.S. Postal Service employee Patrick Paskett's route last month after residents in Seaford and Massapequa Park, on Long Island, reported missing letters and packages. Special agents were dispatched to the case only to witness Paskett, 24, tossing over a thousand pieces of mail in the garbage. He faces up to five years in jail and told the Post, "I really don't want to talk about this with anyone. It happened. I resigned. I don't work for them anymore. It's over." Except the jail part.
