Grand Southern (Start Los Angeles - Until March 2017) » Review by MitchellR
This was my first time ever out of Australia and I was also travelling for the first time on my own and I must say I had the best time of my life so far. I met so many new friends as it ended up being 3 different contiki's in one with Grand Southern, Southern Adventure (LA to New Orleans) & Eastern Discovery (New Orleans to New York). My tour manager & driver were awesome the tour manager had so much knowledge of all the places we went to and set up awesome night life for everyone. My highlights were definitely Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, Dallas, Memphis, Miami, Washington DC then New York after the tour finished. And going to see Gracelands, Kennedy space center, Arlington National Cemetery & all the memorials as well as museums in DC. I already miss it all and everyone I met and I only been home for a week.

Roast Style: This coffee was roasted with a moisture level of 10.7%. We delicately roasted this coffee for filter though we wanted to ensure that in espresso there were elements of caramel. The roast is a 13 min roast which was clean and standard profile. The aromas we encountered when roasting this coffee were sweet. First crack was 9 mins so the roast was killed and allowed to steadily evolve in the drum until second crack when the coffee sang quietly into second in the cooling tray.
Cup Information: notes .....strawberry, blackberry, blueberry in the aroma ....rich body and flavour like sherry sweetness and a nice caramel buttery mouthfeel. You will find a lot more as its tricky to work through all the flavours & aromas so you will have some fun with this coffee.

Canned clams make this no-fuss linguine and sauce recipe supereasy. Of course, you can use fresh littleneck clams, if you prefer. Cook them for about five minutes or until the shells open, and discard any unopened shells. Use less crushed red pepper, or omit it if you prefer a milder sauce. Serve with garlic bread and a tossed green salad.
4 servings (serving size: 1 cup pasta and about 1 cup sauce)

Having already recycled battery covers into animal habitats, General Motors is turning its efforts toward the Chevrolet Volt's batteries themselves.
6:30 P.M. on a Sunday evening… and three more vehicles just pulled up to my car lot.
You may think that's a good thing, and it would be if people didn't park all over the place.
One person parks in one direction. The guy coming from the west parks right in front of that guy, and so forth. This happens in infinite combination until the process of getting people in an out becomes a personal pantomime of moving and motioning cars. At certain times of the day my work becomes comparable to the late Marcel Marceau.
I knew I had to do something about it. However, I didn't expect that something to become the enabler of my 11 year old son's criminal history.
Sometime this week, Tesla CEO Elon Musk will announce everything there is to know about the EV automaker's Gigafactory, from location and price tag, to its heavy reliance on renewable energy sources.
A report by UNEP [PDF here], the UN's environmental body, finds that recycling rates for some of the key ingredients in EV and Hybrid cars are woefully low. The chart above shows "functional recycling rates" for 60 metals, and the rate for such key elements in the production of EV and Hybrid batteries and magnets as Lithium, Vanadium, Lanthanum, Neodymium, Dysprosium, all have recycling rates of 1% or lower. Not only do many of these elements have the potential for creating ecological damage, but many (especially the so-called "rare earth elements") are considered relatively scarce…. and not recycling exacerbates both of these issues. But, notes the report, the complex fusion of elements used in both batteries and EV magnets could present huge challenges in ever improving these rates of recycling.
Where relatively high EOL-RR [End Of Life Rates of Recycling] are derived, the impression might be given that the metals in question are being used more efficiently than those with lower rates. In reality, rates tend to reflect the degree to which materials are used in large amounts in easily recoverable applications (e. g., lead in batteries, steel in auto- mobiles), or where high value is present (e. g., gold in electronics). In contrast, where materials are used in small quantities in complex products (e. g., tantalum in electronics), or where the economic value is at present not very high, recycling is technically much more challenging.
Hat Tip: Auto123
Scrap-steel prices have been climbing like crazy in recent months, with the scrap price for junk cars reaching about $250/ton here in Colorado. That means that a lot of potential project cars that have spent decades in back yards and driveways, waiting to get back on the road, are now worth an easy 400 bucks at The Crusher. Armies of steel-crazed scavengers with car trailers and flatbed trucks have been scouring the countryside for unwanted— or, more accurately, insufficiently wanted— vehicles to turn into quick cash. I hit a local metal-recycling yard yesterday to see the frenzy for myself. (Read More…)
Talk about unfortunate timing: Just as the scrapping incentives all around the world are running out, a Japanese company found a way to turn old cars into fuel. (Read More…)
Welcome to Havana, Oregon. Back in the eighties, living in tony Los Gatos, I used to gaze longingly at photos of old American cars and trucks still hard at work in Cuba. But within days of moving to Eugene in 1993, I came across this very truck, hauling its daily cargo of recycled cardboard. And it planted a seed in me, to document the old vehicles still earning their keep, which finally came to fruition with Curbside Classics. Although we've strayed from the strict interpretation of that mission a few times along the way, no other vehicle more perfectly embodies the original ethos than this 1956 F-350. (Read More…)

The 6.8 SPC is a very unique cartridge. With nearly 40% more muzzle velocity than the standard 5.56, the 6.8 is offers a considerable improvement in power and range but still allows the shooter to maintain control during rapid fire. Changing your AR-15 over to the 6.8 SPC will yield superior long range capabilities, more energy and more knock down power. This barrel is pre-drilled for a 0.750" gas block and includes a complete bolt assembly.
Technical Information:
Features an SPC II chamber and 5r rifling. As a result of the configuration of the SPC II chamber, hotter loads are held to sustainable pressures yielding more velocity without being compromised by higher pressures
Gas Tube Length: Mid Length
Gas Block Diameter: 0.750"
5/8"-24 threaded muzzle
Muzzle Thread Engagement Length: 0.620" with a tolerance of .005"
M4 Feed Ramps: Yes

Essential Action
Timeline of Colombia compulsory licensing campaign
In Colombia, Latin America's third most populous country, Abbott Laboratories long charged several thousand dollars per person per year for its patented Kaletra (lopinavir+ritonavir). In 2005, about 1,257 People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) were taking the anti-retroviral (ARV) as part of their treatment regimen. Between 2004 and 2006, the unit consumption of the drug doubled from 3 million to 6 million. In these two years, Kaletra constituted about 25% of total expenditures on ARVs. It was one of the most expensive medicines on the national market.
Exceedingly high prices, irregularities in drug delivery, and a growing number of patients with limited access led several civil society groups[1] to launch a national compulsory license campaign to promote generic competition and price reductions. Beginning in February 2008, they engaged in extensive advocacy and education work and mobilized individuals, networks, experts, and decision makers throughout Colombia. The group developed training materials on intellectual property and patents, brand-name drugs and generics, anti-retroviral treatments (ARVs) for HIV/AIDS patients, human rights, national drug policies, and best practices for compulsory licensing. They held workshops for leaders from various regions who then disseminated the information to their communities.
Activists worked with Fundación Comunicación Positiva to develop communication strategies and launch a national education campaign. The NGO produced a series of documentary audio programs and a short video covering the evolution of the HIV/AIDS compulsory license & access to medicines campaign in Colombia, 2008-2009.
In April 2008, the health groups sent an open license request to Abbott Laboratories to facilitate generic competition. When Abbott did not respond, in July, they delivered compulsory license request letters to the Superintendency of Industry and Commerce, which houses the patent office, and the Office of the President of the Republic. In addition, they delivered a letter to the Ministry of Health (MoH), requesting a declaration of public interest in access to lopinavir+ritonavir.[2]
The activists faced an uphill battle, since President Uribe's government favored big business and maintained close ties with Washington. Nevertheless, civil society pressure, in the form of general petitions, meetings with government officials, demonstrations and press led to important changes including major price reductions. The Superintendent for Industry and Commerce issued a decree that clarified the process for a declaration of public interest and confirmed the MoH's authority to issue a declaration.
While the Ministry did not declare access to Kaletra to be in the public interest at the time, Colombia's National Medicines Pricing Commission (CNPM) issued Circular 002 in April 2009 to regulate Kaletra's price. CNPM fixed maximum prices of $1,067 for the public sector and $1,591 for the private sector, representing average price reductions of 54% - 68%. This change was projected to save Colombia's HIV programs about US$12 million in the first year alone. Abbott flouted the order and kept its prices high.
Additionally, in 2008, INVIMA[3], Colombia's drug regulatory authority, suspended applications for generic versions of lopinavir + ritonavir. But Colombia's laws do not provide for linking drug registration to patent status. Abbott's influence became clear when, for one of the applications, the drug regulatory body cited a judicial order arising from a legal challenge initiated by Abbott requiring the suspension of the application process.
According to Dr. Rossi, Abbott exerted subtle pressure on the civil society groups' actions as well.[4] The company reached out to regional organizations, primarily those offering Kaletra, and invited them to join a program that provided discounts and other benefits. As a result, two organizations removed themselves from the compulsory licensing requests and one organization resigned from the working group altogether. Interestingly, Abbott presented this split to the MoH in an effort to undermine the petition for the declaration of public interest. In addition, Abbott organized a national meeting of HIV/AIDS activists in order to establish a rival network to the existing network of HIV/AIDS activists, RECOLVIH. Abbott provided substantial financial aid for related activities and promised to support the development of the network.
On September 16, 2009, Colombian civil society filed a groundbreaking "Acción Popular," a mechanism under Article 88 of the Colombian Political Constitution to protect collective rights to public health and administrative morality. The lawsuit sought requests that the Superintendent of Commerce and Industry issue an open compulsory license on LPV/r, that Abbott suspend any actions intended to impede health registration, and that INVIMA permit the registration of generic LPV/r, provided applicants satisfy the requirements of quality, bioequivalence and good manufacturing practices.
Meanwhile, the Colombian healthcare system was experiencing grave financial difficulties which led the government to declare a state of Social Emergency. On January 21, 2010, the government assigned new broader price-regulating powers to the national medicines pricing commission through President Uribe's Decreto 126. The crisis underscored the need for competition and savings on medicines including lopinavir+ritonavir. The decree stated that sanctions could be levied on health services providers if they did not respect pricing regulations. On February 11, Abbott finally agreed to comply with the national pricing regulations.
Following the decree, health groups resubmitted a petition for a declaration of public interest and renewed their petition to the Superintendency of Industry and Commerce for an open compulsory license on lopinavir+ritonavir and other medicines. The letters highlighted three concerns: price, increased use, and system disorder. Even under the government price order, Kaletra's Colombia price was several times greater than the price for generic lopinavir+ritonavir. Peru, for example, paid just $396 for the generic version of the drug. Meanwhile, the number of people taking Kaletra in Colombia had quadrupled over the past five years. A growing number of patients took Kaletra as a first-line treatment, even though the country's treatment guidelines listed Kaletra as a second-line drug—raising costs and questions about Abbott's aggressive marketing practices. High drug costs also contributed to treatment exclusion and stock-outs, exacerbating failures in Colombia's complex and imperfect health system.
On February 23, 2010, the Archbishop of Bogotá, Cardinal Pedro Rubiano Saenz, wrote to President Uribe in a letter joined by Colombian NGOs and the President of the Colombian Medical Federation, disagreeing with the government's assertions in Decree 126 that the health system crisis was unforeseeable. The letter asserted that cost burdens had grown consistently since at least 2003, a year after Colombia expanded protection for patent holders (Decree 2085 of 2002). The Archbishop emphasized the role that high cost, patent-monopolized drugs played in contributing to the financial collapse of the healthcare system and urged the government to use three policy tools "inexplicably" left out of the government's decree: registering generic medicines, compulsory licensing of patents, and parallel importation (shopping on the world market for the best price).
The civil society campaign facilitated a new regulation, Decree 1313 of 2010, which implemented procedures for parallel importation of medicines when the price in Colombia is greater than in other countries. For years, Colombia had all but barred parallel importation through a rule that required would-be importers to obtain the authorization of the manufacturers, against its profit interest (Decreto 677 of 1995). The new rule reinstating parallel importation can help Colombia save costs, defeat pricing abuses and stabilize health system finances.
In February 2012, two and a half years after the start of the "Acción Popular", the 37th Circuit Court issued a decision agreeing with the health groups' complaint and declaring that Abbott Laboratories and the MoH threatened and violated collective rights to public health by maintaining the price of Kaletra above the international reference price. This order is a groundbreaking condemnation of pharmaceutical pricing abuses and a precedent for health rights in Colombia.
After appeal and remand, the trial court ordered the government to explore fining
Abbott. The Superintendency of Industry and Commerce launched an investigation.
Law enforcement raided Abbott's offices to review sales records and
receipts. On February 26, 2014, the Superintendent penalized Abbott (now
AbbVie) with a fine of more than 1.5 million USD
for selling Kaletra at 53% to 66% above the reference price. It is
Colombia's first fine of a pharmaceutical company for price abuse. It is the
maximum fine the law permits. And though it is a fraction of the cost of
Abbott's price abuses, it is progress and a precedent that has caused a stir in
Since 2008, civil society action in Colombia successfully mobilized a
pro-competition campaign that has won major cost reductions and new regulations
in favor of access to medicines. By exposing industry abuse and highlighting
pro-health alternatives, the access movement persuaded even the pro-big
business Uribe and Santos administrations to begin asserting modest
independence from the pharmaceutical industry and tend to society's healthcare

|[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-1356) Allow easy extensions of TopDocCollector
|Mon, 18 Aug 2008 06:27:44 GMT

The reason is the two classes use it differently and don't share any implementation which involves this member (unlike totalHits and hq). I was in the middle of adding javadoc to the protected members and constructor (which accepts numHits and PQ) when I noticed that numHits is completely ignored by this constructor --> TopDocCollector(int numHits, PriortityQueue hq). The reason is that PQ is be probably configured to hold a maximum number of hits. What bothers me with this constructor is that it may falsely lead users of the API to think that it limits their PQ with a maximum number of hits. I think we should remove that parameter and expose two constructors: public TopDocCollector(int numHits) AND public TopDocCollector(PriorityQueue hq). If you agree, I'll reflect that in the 2nd patch I want to create (which adds javadoc). > Allow easy extensions of TopDocCollector > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-1356 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1356 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Index > Reporter: Shai Erera > Assignee: Doron Cohen > Priority: Minor > Attachments: 1356.patch > > > TopDocCollector's members and constructor are declared either private or package visible. It makes it hard to extend it as if you want to extend it you can reuse its *hq* and *totatlHits* members, but need to define your own. It also forces you to override getTotalHits() and topDocs(). > By changing its members and constructor (the one that accepts a PQ) to protected, we allow users to extend it in order to get a different view of 'top docs' (like TopFieldCollector does), but still enjoy its getTotalHits() and topDocs() method implementations. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: email@example.com

Cooperative Investment and the Value of Contracting with Transaction Costs
Bilateral exchange and asset specific investments are becoming increasingly common as agricultural markets continue to industrialize and become vertical coordinated. The extent that well-designed contracts can prevent investment holdup in bilateral exchange situations has been examined extensively in the general economics literature. Che and Hausch (1999) established the strong result that contracts have no value if the relationship specific investment is purely cooperative and if the contracting parties cannot commit to not renegotiate the contract ex post. In this paper, it is shown that contracts are generally valuable in a Che and Hausch environment if information between the seller and buyer is asymmetric and there is a cost to eliminating this asymmetry.

Project 4: Meta-omics of Microbial Communities Involved in Bioremediation. Trichloroethene (TCE), a common chlorinated solvent, and 1,4-dioxane (dioxane), a solvent stabilizer, both are frequent groundwater contaminants at Superfund sites. Although microbial degradation reactions can effectively transform these contaminants, lack of a holistic and ecologically relevant understanding of the interspecies complexity of subsurface microbial communities impedes the application of robust and effective in situ bioremediation of these compounds. The overall goal of this research is to identify and examine the community-level metabolic interactions that shape the biodegradation capabilities of bioremediating communities. The fundamental understanding of microbial communities from a systems microbiology point of view will be developed by utilizing community-scale tools on two dissimilar model communities that function within different redox environments, i.e. anaerobic and aerobic, to remediate TCE and dioxane, respectively. We hypothesize that important interspecies interactions and keystone functions that regulate multiple community behaviors will be identified by applying an integrated meta-omics based approach, which in turn will provide insights to facilitate engineering efficient bioremediation processes. DNA-based stable isotope probing will be used to distinguish and identify functional organisms and the important interdependent relationships within communities capable of biodegrading TCE or dioxane. Targeted metagenomic analyses will then be employed to reveal the metabolic and functional diversity of interdependent biodegrading organisms and their supporting or inhibiting partners in the communities. Comprehensive metatranscriptomic analyses based on mRNA-targeted microarrays will be employed to investigate the global gene expression in the communities under different environmental perturbations in order to reveal microbial behaviors in response to the changes. In order to design diagnostic tools that can be applied to query environmental samples at TCE and dioxane-contaminated sites, we will identify and validate quantitative biomarkers for key metabolic as well as interacting genes using quantitative expression analyses in conjunction with community metabolite-analyses. Finally, we will apply the diagnostic tools developed throughout the research to examine environmental samples to assess microbial behaviors and interactions in these samples in order to guide and optimize in situ bioremediation strategies.
TCE and dioxane, suspected human carcinogens, are common groundwater contaminants at Superfund sites. This research focuses on gaining a holistic understanding and developing novel biomarkers of the community-level metabolism and interactions that shape the bioremediation capabilities of subsurface microbial communities. Results from this research will meet SRP research goals by facilitating the assessment, design and optimization of in situ bioremediation of TCE and dioxane-contaminated sites.

In this commentary, Mark A. Perry and Indraneel Sur of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP in Washington, D.C., write about the Third Circuit U.S. Court of Appeal's decision in In re Lord Abbett Mutual Funds Fee Litigation, a decision they contend the court resolved incorrectly. They write:
"The Securities Litigation Uniform Standards Act of 1998 (SLUSA) provides that '[n]o covered class action . . . may be maintained in any State or Federal court.' The statute further defines covered class actions as certain 'lawsuits' brought under state law by private persons alleging specified misconduct in connection with the purchase or sale of nationally traded securities. A recurring question in modern securities litigation is what a district court should do with a complaint that alleges both SLUSA-precluded claims and other claims that are not precluded by SLUSA. For example, the same factual allegations could give rise to a claim for relief under the federal securities laws and also a claim for relief under state common law. If both claims are pleaded in the complaint, and the state-law claim is precluded by SLUSA, should the district court dismiss only that claim or the entire action?
"Confronting this issue head on, the Third Circuit recently resolved it incorrectly.
"The court of appeals in In re Lord Abbett Mutual Funds Fee Litigation summarized its position as follows: 'This appeal presents the question whether SLUSA requires the dismissal of the entire action when the action includes some state law class action claims that clearly may not be maintained under SLUSA as well as other claims that are not so prohibited. We hold that SLUSA does not require such a dismissal.'
"As we explain below, the text, structure, and purpose of SLUSA all compel a result contrary to that reached by the Third Circuit in Lord Abbett. Congress expressly provided in SLUSA that covered class actions — not 'claims' — may not be maintained in any court. The precluded actions are further defined as lawsuits — not 'claims' — and the statutory context makes clear that it speaks to entire cases, not individual claims. Giving effect to the plain text and structure of SLUSA would best effectuate its purpose, which was to channel most allegations of misconduct involving nationally traded securities into federal court to be resolved under federal law. Accordingly, if a 'covered class action' (as defined by Congress) includes a precluded claim, then the entire case must be dismissed by the district court."

Went to town.
There was Patsy walking around
in the sun.
In his photos
I notice the sad eyes,
wish I didn't.
My favourite mountain —
I see it every day:
my father's painting.
Wakeful all night long
I remembered
my very first love.
Warm winter sunlight.
We lunch with old friends,
drive home replete.
Wining and dining.
In my youth
it was a prelude.
Now that I am old
food and wine
are ends in themselves.
He's away tonight.
I buy chocolates, and snuggle
with my cats.
Silent song in the mind
creates a crescendo:
internal music needing no instrument.
Will there be roses
She loved them in life.
The city of Perth
today hosts
farewells and haiku.
Some of these poems are autobiographical, some are entirely fictional, and some are a mixture of both. The intention is art rather than self-expression. I don't allow factual details to get in the way of poetry! (I do seek emotional truth.) They are works in progress, and may be subject to revision without notice. Completed versions appear in my books. Nevertheless copyright applies to all texts found here. Copyright also applies to almost all photos posted here, most of which are my own, though a few are licensed under Creative Commons.
Thank you for your comments. I read and appreciate them all, and reply here to specific points that seem to need it — or as I have the leisure. Otherwise I reciprocate by reading and commenting on your blog posts as much as possible.

Fatigue, one of the side effects of cancer and cancer treatment, can be reduced through aerobic exercise, according to a new study published by the University of the West of England Bristol last week.
Cancer patients can suffer from fatigue for months or years, which may make them less inclined to go on with the treatment. Previously, people suffering the effects of cancer-related fatigue had been advised to rest. However, being inactive for long periods of time may result in muscle wasting and even increased fatigue. The study showed that rest, balanced with physical activity, may help relieve tiredness.
The new research, funded by the UK's National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Health Technology Assessment programme, adds another 28 studies to the previous 28 studies in the 2008 review. The 56 studies involved 4,068 people, with half of the studies carried out with breast cancer patients. Results showed that aerobic exercise, including cycling and walking, produced benefits for people with solid tumours, both during the cancer treatment and afterwards. Fatigue was not significantly reduced by other forms of exercise, such as resistance training.
Lead researcher Fiona Cramp said that the research added to previous evidence showing the beneficial effects of some forms of exercise on fatigue in cancer patients. However, it is yet to be seen how the positive impact of physical activity on fatigue was affected by cancer treatment, she added, noting that researchers also needed to study how the results were impacted by the frequency and duration of exercise as well as the different types of cancer.

[PHOTO] SPEC: Iris petrana | Mon, 7 Apr 2003 03:34:00" />
Hi all,
This is Iris petrana, a small species growing in the Negev desert of southern
Israel and in adjacent areas of Jordan.
I saw them in a nature reserve and found them to be amazingly varied in
flower color, size and shape. I had a hard time to select just a few photos so
you won't get bored ;-)
When looking at them, always reming yourselves that this is a natural
population, without any hybridizers hands in it. We are talking about
variability in a natural habitat...

Aspects (band)
|Bristol, England
|Hip hop
|Years active
Aspects are a hip hop group from Bristol, England; the outfit's core members being emcees El Eye, Mantis and Bubber Loui.
The band formed in 1996 and were once part of a larger collective of artists known as FSH (Fantastic Super Heroes). Aspects, formerly Earthbound Aspects, were born of the Hip Hop movement in their native city and the culture's well documented renaissance at that time.
After a number of EPs,[1] Aspects released their debut album Correct English[2] to critical acclaim in 2001.[3] The album featured the singles "Best Music" (also containing "Intrigue" remixed by DJ Vadim) and "My Genre." On its release "My Genre" became Single of the Week in the NME.[4][5] The group gained international exposure with the song and the accompanying video was rotated on BBC Radio 1 in the UK and MTV Europe respectively. At this time the group appeared on and recorded exclusive radio sessions for Dan Greenpeace and Zane Lowe, Steve Lamacq, Tim Westwood and the late John Peel (see List of Peel sessions),[6] among others. The title track and third official single, "Correct English" never appeared on the album but was released as a double A side (along with "We Get Fowl"). It is a collaborative track with Task Force. In 2007 Hip Hop Connection magazine (issue 214) ranked Aspects' Correct English #28 in the 50 Best British Albums Ever.
After the demise of their original stable, Hombre Records,[7] Aspects were signed to Antidote Records[8] (a subsidiary of Sanctuary Records), who released their sophomore LP Mystery Theatre? in 2004,[9] along with singles for "Impact" and "Off The Lip". The latter entered the UK Indie Chart at #16 and the UK Top 200 at #80. "Off the Lip" is a "Surfin' USA" for the UK Hip Hop generation" according to a review published in The Independent, "making them one of only a handful of UK acts to produce genuinely original Hip Hop."
Their third studio album, Left Hand Path[10] was released in 2013. It was described by Uncut (magazine) as, "a masterful collage of gothic moods and virtuoso rhyming".[11] Upon its release, Clash (magazine) considered the material "a relieving alternative to conventional, safe music" and "playfully groundbreaking".[12]
The group have performed extensively and were attached to UK tours from Princess Superstar, Arrested Development, De La Soul and The Bees. Aspects have recorded and collaborated with numerous artists,[1] among them DJ Yoda, DJ Format, DJ Vadim, Junior Disprol, Hundred Strong, Mr. Jason of Porn Theatre Ushers, Si Begg, Quantic,[13] The Bees and Little Barrie.

Cross-Country Polarisation in CO 2 Emissions Per Capita in the European Union: Changes and Explanatory Factors
We analyse the degree of polarisation in the international distribution of CO 2 emissions per capita in the European Union. It is analytically relevant to examine the degree of instability inherent to a distribution and, in the analysed case, the likelihood that the distribution and its evolution will increase or decrease the chances of reaching an agreement on climate policy. Two approaches were used to measure polarisation: the endogenous approach, in which countries are grouped according to their similarity in terms of emissions, and the exogenous approach, in which countries are grouped geographically. Our findings indicate a clear decrease in polarisation since the mid-1990s, which can essentially be explained by the fact that the different groups have converged (i.e. antagonism among the CO 2 emitters has decreased) as the contribution of energy intensity to between-group differences has decreased. This lower degree of polarisation in CO 2 distribution suggests a situation more conducive to the possibility of reaching EU-wide agreements on the mitigation of CO 2 emissions.

7 Top Paid Major League Coaches
The lavish spending in the pro sports arena spread into coaches in baseball a few years ago as payrolls began to cross the $100 million threshold. The teams that carry these gargantuan costs do not mind spending large chunks of cash on their pro baseball trainer, when it adds up to only a small fraction of their overall costs. Though teams do not usually release manager contract information, these numbers are widely reported through various sources.
These are the top paid coaches in the Major League for 2009:
1. Joe Torre, $4.3 million, Los Angeles Dodgers
After a long and successful stint as the Yankees skipper when he was one of the top paid American baseball coaches, Torre brought his impressive credentials to the Dodgers and with only a partial season with Manny made it to the NLCS in his first try. He has two seasons left on his contract.
2. Tony LaRussa, $4.22 million, St. Louis Cardinals
In the wake of taking the Cards to their first World Series title in almost 25 years, LaRussa re-upped his contract for two years in 2007. Now in his last season of the contract, the question this postseason is whether he should remain one of the top paid American baseball coaches.
3. Dusty Baker, $3.5 million, Cincinnati Reds
Dusty brings his old school style to his third team as a manager in the Major Leagues. Forgetting statistics, Dusty goes with his gut on lineups and at this salary needs results like he had in his first season with the Cubs.
4. Lou Pinella, $3.33 million, Chicago Cubs
Pinella is in his last season as a Cub manager although the team has a $5 million option for the 2010 season. His crew has been successful but not successful enough to be one of the top paid coaches in his first two years at the helm.
5. Bobby Cox, $3 million, Atlanta Braves
Cox signed an extension last season that has the 67-year-old skipper coaching through the end of this season. Cox in his second stint with the Braves is as much as part of their character as Chipper Jones and he will be missed.
6. Joe Girardi, $2.5 million, New York Yankees
Not making nearly the money of his predecessor, Joe Torre, Girardi returned to manage the team he caught for ahead of the 2008 season. He is now in the second year of a contract that makes him one of the top paid coaches with the weight of expectations that a $220 million payroll brings.
7. Mike Scioscia, $???, Los Angeles Angels
Word has still not leaked on the actual amount of pay that Scioscia will receive from the 10-year contract he signed in January. The contract, which runs through the 2018 season, figures to be a hefty raise from the $2 million per season he previously made. He is already the winningest coach in Angeles history and guided them to a World Series title in 2002.
3 Responses to "7 Top Paid Major League Coaches"
Scioscia is contracted through the 2018 season? That's simply mind blowing. It will be very interesting to see how much he actually pulls down to coach the Angels and how many more World Series participations he manages.
I'm still LaRossa is still coaching. He's had his own fair share of issues in the baseball industry and one of these days he's going to get canned.
Why are these guys making this much money? Yeah they may coach the teams, but there are other people in the organizations that are more hand's on than the coaches, like the trainers. How come they don't paid as much?

Which Joe gave his name to 'sloppy joes'? We look at five interesting sandwiches and their lexical origins.
1An artificial language, devised for machine translation, that makes explicit the distinctions necessary for successful translation into a target language, even where they are not present in the source language.
- 'Ideas about interlinguas are intimately tied up with ideas about the representation of meaning.'
- 'Among the existing interlinguas, special attention will be given to UNL (Universal Networking Language).'
- 'IL2, which is in its design stage, is intended to be an interlingua, albeit a relatively simple one.'
- 'To get a better feel for the way interlinguas work, let's look at two aspects that complicate the transfer phase: word translation and tense.'
- 'Two clearly different understandings of interlinguas were evident at the pre-workshop.'
- 1.1mass noun An artificial international language formed of elements common to the Romance languages, designed primarily for scientific and technical use.
- 'In this blog, I intend to write about languages, to translate news about languages into Interlingua, and to talk about various other things that seem interesting to me.'
- 'The orthography of Interlingua is based on the 26 letters of the Roman alphabet with no diacritical or accent marks.'
- 'As we speak, Esperanto is being corrupted by upstart languages such as Interlingua, Klingon, Java & various cryptophasic tongues.'
Early 20th century: from inter- 'between' + Latin lingua 'tongue'.

Abstract We describe a new species of storm-petrel, Oceanites pincoyae (Pincoya Storm-Petrel), from the Puerto Montt and Chacao channel area, Chile. The description is based on 1 specimen collected at sea in Seno Reloncavi on 19 February 2011 and 11 other individuals that were caught, examined, and released. The new taxon's foraging ecology and behavioral habits are unique among the southern Oceanitinae, including "mouse-runs" and repeated diving beneath the surface to retrieve food items. Its distinctive appearance includes bold white ulnar bars, extensive white panels to the underwing, and white to the lower belly and vent. Among species of Oceanites, it is unique in showing white outer vanes to the outer two pairs of rectrices. It further differs from all other storm-petrels in having a distinctive juvenile plumage. Morphometrically it is distinct from Oceanites gracilis gracilis (Elliot's Storm-Petrel) and smaller than O. oceananicus chilensis (the Fuegian form of Wilson's Storm-Petrel), having a shorter tarsus and longer middle toe. There also appear to be differences in the timing of breeding and molt between the new taxon and both O. o. chilensis and O. g. gracilis. We estimate the population size of the new species as ~3,000 individuals.

Don't judge them - they're young,
Trying their best
Growing up in a difficult world.
Why are they bad if they dress in black?
Why are they bad if they party, talk loud,
Just enjoyIng being young?
Before long they'll be grown
Have children of their own
Their youth gone!
Young life, so precious yet so criticised,
Some cry out for help, but its not there,
Just judgement.
If with children you've been blessed
Show them you love them,
Let them know they're the best.
No matter what they do, show them you care,
Support them, love them,
They are the most precious gift you'll ever have

Excellent poem! I think many of us tend to look for shortcomings in our youth instead of seeing the promise. So important to look for the promise.
So true; how easy it is for some of us to forget what it was like to be young!
