Another poll ahead of this week's meeting of the Bank of England's
monetary policy committee has found unanimous agreement that the
base rate will be cut.
Of the 11 experts who spoke to Adfero, all forecasted reductions of
between 0.5 per cent and one per cent.
Five said a one per cent cut was on the cards, two suggested 0.75
per cent and one went for 0.5 per cent, while the other three said
the reduction will be either 0.5 per cent or one per cent.
A reduction of this size could help bring down the cost of
mortgages, something that could encourage first-time buyers.
The Adfero poll closely matches the sentiments expressed by a
Reuters poll of economists last week.
In that survey, the consensus was again for a 0.5 per cent fall in
the base rate, with some tipping a one per cent cut.

KNOXVILLE - Dave Hart woke up Wednesday morning in a less than ideal situation having to replace a basketball coach heading into late April, but it's certainly not an intimidating scenario for Tennessee's athletic director.
For the man in his third year in charge of the Volunteers' athletic department, it's another opportunity to put his stamp on Tennessee by putting his pick in a key coaching position.
The first 24 hours after Cuonzo Martin abruptly left to take the California job brought little in the way of concrete developments in Tennessee's search, but with the season long over and no other major programs still with coaching vacancies, that figures to change soon.
"You look for the track record," Hart said at his news conference on Tuesday afternoon. "You look for somebody that can recruit. Our lifeblood is recruiting in all of our sports. When you go into a process like this, you want to be sure that the person you're hiring is an outstanding recruiter. You also want a person that brings a lot of energy and enthusiasm.
"Transitions aren't easy, regardless of the circumstances that may have brought you into a transition. They're difficult. You want somebody with knowledge of the game, and you want somebody that can attract a very high quality staff."
For Tennessee, the biggest question is how much the Vols are willing to pay for that desired candidate rather than if coaches would be interested in the position, particularly given the athletic department's well-documented financial situation.
Hart and Tennessee were willing to pay Martin in the range of $1.8 million, and the Vols likely would have to go above the $2 million threshold to attract more proven coaches.
"We will go into the search process with a very similar profile that we discussed when we were in the football process," Hart said. "Now again, we would seek as a priority someone with head coaching experience. That does not eliminate people. It just says that is our initial priority.
"We are looking for a track record, [but] you don't always end there. Perhaps at the end of the day we don't attract someone with a significant track record. Perhaps we attract a rising star. I don't know, all of that is hard to forecast, but the rising star is different in terms of the financial package than the person with an outstanding track record."
Wichita State's Gregg Marshall has been linked to Tennessee's past two basketball searches, and it would make sense for the Vols to kick the tires at least and see what interest the 51-year-old, whose salary is $1.75 million, would have after leading the Shockers to the Final Four last season and a 35-0 start this season before an NCAA tournament loss to finalist Kentucky.
Virginia Commonwealth's Shaka Smart is a name linked to seemingly every opening, but he's turned down multiple jobs since taking the Rams to the 2011 Final Four.
Other potential candidates could include Dayton's Archie Miller, who just led the Flyers to the Elite Eight and agreed to a contract extension during the tournament run; Colorado's Tad Boyle, who is 92-49 with three NCAA tournament appearances in four seasons with the Buffaloes; and Chris Mack of Xavier, who was linked to the Vols' last opening.
Former UCLA and Pittsburgh coach Ben Howland could be a possibility even though he didn't coach last season.
If Tennessee wants to go the young, up-and-comer route, it could look at Minnesota's Richard Pitino, the 31-year-old son of Louisville and former Kentucky coach Rick; Louisiana Tech's Mike White, a former Ole Miss guard and assistant coach; or Donnie Tyndall of Southern Mississippi, who already has addressed his name being linked to the Vols' opening.
"I have said in other instances that I am very humbled and proud to be the head coach at Southern Miss," the former Morehead State and second-year Golden Eagles coach told the Jackson Clarion-Ledger.
"My working relationship with [athletic director] Bill McGillis, on a scale of 1-10, is a 10. When other situations arise and my name is mentioned, it is a compliment to our players, coaching staff, and the success we've had here at Southern Miss."
Unlike the search that landed Martin three years ago, there is no competition in the form of other openings at the major-conference level. The likes of Wake Forest (Tulsa's Danny Manning), Marquette (Duke assistant Steve Wojciechowski) and Boston College (Ohio's Jim Christian) all have made their hires.
Hart believes the Tennessee job is "extremely attractive." In the 21,678-seat Thompson-Boling Arena, the Vols boast one of the country's largest venues. Pratt Pavilion is an impressive practice facility. Other coaches have shown what the program is capable of accomplishing.
And even though increasing fan unrest played a role Martin's decision to leave, Hart believes it's a non-issue moving forward.
"We have a phenomenal fan base," he said. "We have a very passionate fan base. Can passion be misdirected? Sure it can at times, but we're blessed with a passionate fan base.
"I don't have any concern about that being a problem."

text: Hailed as an aphrodisiac, cure for various ailments, and overall delicacy, known and renowned in many traditional cuisine, this ingredient has nonetheless had very little mention in modern cookbooks. I'm talking, of course, about testes. Well, not any more. Warning: Spoilers inside! "Ljubomir Erovic, the chef behind the book, said testicles are rich in testosterone and are believed to be a powerful aphrodisiac in China as well as his homeland of Serbia. The collection, made available by e-book publishers YUDU, features testicles from several different animals, including stallions, ostriches, bulls, pigs and turkeys. "Wash testicles thoroughly for 30-45 minutes," begins the recipe for testicles pie. "Once softened, mince them in a mincer." A "very sharp knife" is needed for traditional style testicles, which get boiled, cut up and deep fried in hot oil. Erovic, 45, said: "The tastiest testicles in my opinion probably come from bulls, stallions or ostriches, although other people have their own favourites. All testicles can be eaten - except human, of course. The best for aphrodisiac properties are sheep and stallion testicles." Erovic also organises the World Testicle Cooking Championship held annually in Serbia since 2004. It draws in chefs from Australia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Norway and Serbia. One metric tonne of testicles are prepared during the contest." That's a whole lot of bull. Testicles.

My research focuses on the diversity of imaginations and ideas of what 'civil society' should be and how these ideologies translate into geographical forms. At a conceptual level, 'civil society' usually refers to the sphere where citizens publicly engage each other independently of states, markets, and sometimes religion, but this ideal is often messier in practice. Typically, civil society deliberations take place in cities, which is why my work usually has an urban dimension.
My case studies have usually been drawn from the region that is known in some circles as the 'Pacific Rim,' the area of the world covering the West Coast of the Americas and the Eastern seaboard of the Asia-Pacific. Some say that the 'Pacific Rim' is a wonderful notion of market integration across the Pacific Ocean, others say that it's a terribly socially unjust vision that throws people under the bus by racializing, criminalizing, and disenfranchising them, and both views (and all the views between) tend to make it onto my maps – not because I see them as equal dialogue partners that should reach a certain consensus about everyday life in this region, but because both ideologies are instrumental in making the civil societies of cities on the 'Pacific Rim,' sometimes with a good deal of conflict and others with some measure of conviviality. This interplay of placemaking, peacemaking, and protest on the Pacific Rim is what I call Pacific civil societies to refer to my interest in the elusive search for peace in the public spheres of what it means to be a civil society that is socially just on both sides of the Pacific Ocean.
I'm especially interested in the ideological work that imaginations about 'Asia,' 'Asians,' and 'Asian Americans' do in making these Pacific Rim civil societies. These are all ideological terms that have their own intellectual history, but they also mean different things to people on the ground, especially when they put these concepts of identity into social, cultural, and political practice. For me, these terms (as well as other related terms like 'Greater China' and 'Chinese diaspora') all fall under the umbrella term 'Asian modernities,' a moniker that scholars who study transnational migration, political and economic development, and urbanization in Asia use to describe a self-conscious attempt by state, market, civil society institutions, and individual citizens to try to think about being 'modern' through Asian 'cultural values' (in the many ways that that's defined). My inquiries into the geographical work that these ideologies do has left me intrigued with more philosophical questions of what 'ideology' actually is, especially because 'cultural values' usually slips quickly into talk about religion and secularization. It's to the end of thinking through what 'ideologies' actually are that my more theoretical interest in 'grounded theologies' come into play, as I theorize that even secular geographies, at the root of their existence, are still constituted by theology – what philosopher Charles Taylor describes as the 'supernatural,' 'be this understood in terms of the one transcendent God, or of Gods or spirits, or magic forces, or whatever' (A Secular Age, p. 16). In terms of disciplinary orientation, this means that I still find my intellectual home in human geography, but I also tend to branch out toward religious studies and theology as well as Asian and Asian American studies.
My doctoral project, entitled Religious Politics in Pacific Space: Grounding Cantonese Protestant Theologies in Secular Civil Societies, explored how some of these concepts – 'grounded theologies,' 'Pacific civil societies,' 'Asian modernities' – played out among Cantonese-speaking Protestants as they have tried to engage the civil societies of three Pacific Rim cities: San Francisco, Vancouver, and Hong Kong. I wanted to make sense of how they understood and imagined 'civil society' and put those imaginaries and ideologies to work in trying to make their version of civil society happen. In some ways, my project was motivated by the news breaking in the 2000s about how 'Chinese Christians' – mostly of Cantonese Protestant background – were vocally supporting socially conservative political positions, including opposing same-sex marriage (such as in California's Proposition 8 controversy), advancing politically conservative electoral candidates (such as in the Conservative Party of Canada), and aligning with establishmentarian forces to advance their own private interests (such as in accusations that Christians cooperation with the pro-People's Republic of China (PRC) factions in Hong Kong politics). In so doing, I dug up a history of how Cantonese Protestant imaginaries shifted toward what might be called a private consensus that their institutions (churches, families, market institutions, and even their conception of government and civil society) should be autonomous and motivated by self-interest. What was especially fascinating was how this ideology of privatization tended to be justified by appeals to an ethnic Chinese culture, making 'Chineseness' the focal point of the ideological work here. Such invocations to an essential ethnic cultural proved to be quite slippery, as I also discovered that there were significant challenges to this private consensus from among Cantonese Protestants challenging racism and homophobia while advocating various kinds of progressive solidarities (e.g. the Asian American Movement, democratic challenges to Asia-Pacific state/market regimes, indigenous sovereignty, feminist and queer politics).
While completing my doctoral project, I also broadened the interfaith dimensions of my research on religion and civil society by participating in a collaborative project with Drs Claire Dwyer (University College London) and David Ley (UBC) on the state, market, and civil society forces that have constructed the Highway to Heaven, a stretch of 3 kilometres of agricultural land in Richmond, BC, with over 20 religious institutions. My doctoral research on Cantonese Protestants, who tend to share an affinity with Hong Kong despite their ideological diversity, also incorporates work that I completed in my BA (Hons) on the history of masculinities in Hong Kong and my MA project on the geographical imaginations of a transnational Hongkonger church in Vancouver. This doctoral work has yielded six peer-reviewed publications so far and forms the basis of my ongoing research and publishing on Pacific civil societies, especially when it comes to the private consensus and challenges raised against its ideological slipperiness on the ground.
My current postdoctoral project is tentatively titled The Private Consensus Is Unraveling: Asian Modernities and Protest Cultures in Pacific Rim Cities. I am interested in the politicization of civil societies and what the emergence of protest phenomena in Pacific Rim cities have to tell us about how people, especially those who inhabit 'Asian' and 'Asian American' bodies, want to live their everyday lives in the face of state, market, and even civil society institutions that are usually governed through the ideology of the private consensus. My case studies include the origins and aftermath of the 2014 Hong Kong Umbrella Movement, the participation of Asian Americans in the Black Lives Matter movement in American cities (especially Seattle), and the engagement of Chinese and Japanese Canadians in the neighbourhood politics of Vancouver's Chinatown and Downtown Eastside. In each of these cases, I also reflect on the continued presence of grounded theologies in shaping these contested ideologies of civil society and what it means to be 'Asian' and 'Asian American' on the Pacific Rim. In some ways, this project emerged out of work that I had originally conceived for my SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellowship on 'younger-generation' Asian North American Christian engagements with public spheres of Seattle and Vancouver, as well as reflections on Asian American evangelical struggles for representation in contemporary evangelical public spheres. This work might also be usefully compared with the emergence, aftermath, and ongoing struggle for democracy around the world, such as the Arab Spring, Occupy Wall Street, Latin American protests, and Euromaidan, as these sustained demonstrations offer windows into emerging concepts of civil society as protest cultures, a way of inhabiting everyday lifeworlds through conscious and unconscious practices of resisting the private consensus. Research for this project is still in its early stages, but the work has already been officially launched by a forthcoming co-edited book (with Jonathan Y. Tan) with Palgrave entitled Theological Reflections on the Hong Kong Umbrella Movement, as well as some experimental academic articles, encyclopedia entries, and posts on my blog, Religion Ethnicity Wired.
In short, my engagement with academic conversations often falls under several themes that are broader than my particular topical interests in Cantonese Protestants, interfaith suburban landscapes, and protest cultures. At a conceptual level, I seek to understand social, cultural, and political geographies of civil society, especially in cities. Theoretically, my engagements with the ideologies and practices of civil society have led to an interest in the ontological dimensions of ideology, especially in the 'grounded theologies' of religion and secularization that seem to pervade most forms of placemaking. My regional focus is on the Pacific Rim, with all of its ideological contests around Asian modernities and Asian American cultural politics at various scales of the state, the market, civil society, and individual reflexivity. As it is, I feel most at home calling myself a human geographer, but as geographers tend to be rather promiscuous when it comes to the disciplines, I feel quite free to engage conversations in theology and religious studies as well as Asian and Asian American studies and seek to do so on an active basis.

Whatever the results tomorrow, there will be a group of pollsters that will come out the clear losers of the run-up to Super Tuesday. On the one side we have groups like Zogby and Rasmussen which show Obama with higher-than-average results, on the other are Mason-Dixon, ARG and SUSA which are much much more reassuring to Clinton's chances. Depending on which institute has released the latest wave of polls, Clinton and Obama supporters are trading optimism for depression and vice-versa.
What can these discrepancies be attributed to? It is important to note that each institute is consistent in showing an Obama uptick or a Clinton uptick: Zogby has great Obama results in California but also in Missouri and New Jersey; and Mason-Dixon and SUSA have Clinton up higher than expected in most of their polls as well. This suggests that pollsters are using widely differing turnout models — not only with the composition of the electorate but how many new voters show up and who these new voters are. Don't necessarily assume that new voters favor one candidate or the other, as both Iowa and New Hampshire Democrats voted in record numbers… to differing results. At this point there is no way of knowing which pollster we should trust, and we will have to wait for the results to come in tomorrow.
Meanwhile, here are the latest trends, mostly based on SUSA's massive release of polls. First up, of course, is the big prize of California, the state for which we could stay up very late tomorrow night:
- SUSA has Clinton up 53% to 41% in a week-end poll, which is a slight improvement for the NY Senator who led 49% to 38% last week. The key finding of the poll is that 34% of voters have already voted, and Clinton leads by 12% among those as well. The second crucial internal from the poll is that Latinos (27% of the electorate here) are giving 71% of their vote to Clinton.
- The Republican numbers are in line with other numbers and have a toss-up between McCain at 39% and Romney at 36%. A week ago, McCain had 36% and Romney had 25%, so this is a significant progression for Romney. Among those who have already voted (35%), Romney is down 5%.
I have long emphasized that early-voting was a big hurdle that Obama and Romney would have to overcome. And while there is no question that many of the people who voted Clinton early would have voted Hillary anyway, there is little doubt that some voters who are now locked in could have been susceptible to this late Obama momentum.
Next, we get three polls from Clinton and Obama's home states:
- In New York, SUSA shows Clinton staying ahead 56% to 38%, a bigger margin than in some other polls we have seen. Clinton really needs to get a massive delegate lead here to offset possible losses elsewhere. Worth noting is that Obama wins the male vote, in what is a 44% gender gap!
- In PPP's survey, Clinton has a similar lead, 51% to 32%.
- The GOP numbers have McCain up 56% to 23% in SUSA and 49% to 24% in PPP.
- In Illinois, it's Obama that is widely ahead in the SUSA poll 66% to 30%. Clinton only gets 17% of the white vote.
- Among Republicans, McCain does not tremble, 46% to 25% for Romney and 17% for Huck.
The Democratic numbers in these states are actually very important, as Illinois and New York will attribute a large numbers of delegates and both candidates want to get a lead in their home states to offset potential losses elsewhere. In New York, Clinton has a robust lead in all regions of the state, but Obama is also coming in consistently above 30% which should allow him to split delegates equally in all districts that allocate an even number of delegates! Clinton's Illinois position is a bit more precarious, as she is weak enough overall that she could let Obama get two extra delegates in even districts. And don't be surprised if Clinton gets shut out in some districts of Chicago.
Completing the Northeast picture, SUSA releases final numbers from New Jersey, Connecticut and Massachusetts. Polls from all three have shown tight races in the past week but SUSA partly disagrees:
- In New Jersey, SUSA gives Clinton a reassuring 52% to 41% lead, in line with another poll released this morning that showed Clinton holding firm in the Garden State. The gender gap is 42%.
- In Massachusetts, SUSA has Clinton surviving 56% to 39% thanks to a 62% gender gap!! SUSA does show a 7% Obama progression in a week.
- In Connecticut, however, it's Obama, 48% to 46% (he led 48% to 44% a few days ago) in a race with a small gender gap, small age gap and small geographical differences.
- All those states show no suspense in the GOP race, and only MA is not winner-take-all and so the margin has to be watched. In NJ, it's McCain 54-25; in Connecticut, 52-30. And in Massachusetts, Romney is up 58-30.
In many ways, Clinton would rather lose Massachusetts than Connecticut. Losing the former could be attributed to Kennedy's influence, while Connecticut is in Clinton's own backyard. And with that we move to Missouri, a swing state in both parties in which SUSA once again is kind to the New York Senator:
- Clinton is up 54% to 43%, a noticeable progression since SUSA's poll released earlier this week in what SUSA calls "Last Minute Momentum to Clinton." It had been a while Hillary's camp hadn't read those words.
- The GOP 's Missouri primary might be the single most important contest in the Republican race, as the winner will get all of the state's 58 delegates. And as in many other polls, SUSA has it too close to call, with McCain at 33%, Huckabee 31% and Romney 28%.
Both Obama and Romney really want to win this state. A Clinton victory here would allow her to show she has appeal in the Midwest and that she can attract voters in a purple state that has been leaning red. And a McCain win would virtually leave Romney no path towards keeping the delegate count close.
And with that we move South, to Georgia and Alabama which are holding very tight contests as well. In Alabama, it is the Democratic race which is key now that Edwards's withdrawal has opened up a path for Clinton to win if the electorate in the South stays as racially polarized as in SC. We got three polls from AL:
- SUSA shows Obama up 49% to 47%, CPR has Clinton up 48% to 44% and Insider Advantage shows a toss-up, with Obama at 45% and Clinton at 44%.
- Among Republicans, AL has long been a McCain-Huckabee contest. SUSA has McCain stumbling a bit in the past few days and now up 37% to 35%, CPR has it at 36-30.
- In Georgia, PPP confirms Obama's lead 53% to 37%, but it is the GOP race that is more important in this state. PPP pits it at 31-29-27 (McCain-Romney-Huckabee), with Insider Advantage at 32 McCain-31 Romney-26 Huckabee.
- The latest updates from Tennessee and Oklahoma (PPP and SUSA) respectively confirm that Clinton has a wide lead there (56-34 and 54-27) but the GOP race is closer (34-28 for McCain-Huck in TN and 37-32 between them in Oklahoma).
As alw
ays, these numbers tell us first and foremost that the delegate count will probably stay close in the Dem race. And odds are that, if one candidate emerges with a significant delegate lead, it will be because of the margins in New York and Illinois rather than because of who won Missouri, California and Connecticut by a point of two.
- General election poll
A quick note about RAsmussen's latest general election numbers which are as over the place as the primary polls: McCain leads Clinton 47% to 39% but ties Obama at 44%. But the electability is reversed in Romney's matchups, as Clinton crushes him 50% to 37% and Obama is much closer, 44% to 41%. Rasmussen had only released Clinton-McCain and Romney-Obama yesterday and the rest today, so it appears that those two match-ups were tested in one sample, and that Clinton-Romney and McCain-Obama were tested in another. Simple sample differences would then explain why the first two are much more favorable to Democrats than the last two. I don't know, however, why such a sample split would be a good idea.

According to statistics, every human being on this planet Earth produces around one kilogram of waste every single day. This amounts to more than one billion tons of wastes per year. Have we ever asked ourselves where all these wastes go? Hence, it is high time to consider Recover Bins skip bin hire south Perth, to get rid of all that waste piling up around you. As stated on envirocentre.ie the population is showing a positive trend every year and the mortality rate is diminishing, it is the need of the hour to understand and act towards a better waste handling mechanisms.
The role of skip bins in the area of waste management is incredible and noteworthy for every human being who is conscious about getting rid of the wastes in an ethical manner. This write-up is primarily intended to know the importance of these skip bins as well as hiring the right type of skip bin rental companies across the world.
Importance of skip bins
Handling wastes from homes as well as factories is not an easy task for the town or city administrators. With the advent of various storage equipments, things have become easy for them and the skip bin is one among those tools that play a vital role in handling wastes in every part of the world. Let us not ignore the fact that waste materials when not disposed of in time can pollute the environment and can cause life-threatening health hazards to people around. Hence the services of the companies that hire the skip bins are considered to be very critical in handling domestic waste, industrial waste or waste materials in the construction worksites. Hence there is always a need of hiring the skip bin firms wherever the wastes are piled up.
Why hire a skip bin company?
Hiring the skip bin firms offers lots of benefits and few of the important ones are discussed here for the interests of the readers and concerned individuals. The benefits are:
Maintain safety and good health
Skip bins are considered to be safer as well as healthier while disposing of all types of waste materials. The experts from these companies are well trained to remove and dispose of the wastes in a professional manner. Hence a safe environment is assured even after removing the wastes from your place.
Conserve the environment
By deploying these skip bin rental companies one can dispose of anything like paper, timber, metal scrap, tires and other waste materials which are properly handled and recycled by these companies as their backend activities. Hence a clean environment is assured around where these bins are installed.
More than anything, hiring these skip bin firms is not expensive in comparison with the benefits they offer to the community. As the demands are growing, more companies have come up in the recent times and hence the cost of hiring these firms has drastically reduced than in the past.
Since these companies are growing in numbers, they are readily available and can be hired in the shortest possible time.

The Department of Management is a leader in high-impact research as is evidenced by faculty publications in top journals in the field.
As one example of impact, a study of top business journal publications by the University of Texas at Dallas School of Management revealed the following:
- In the period 2006-2010, the UC Management Department ranked 50th of 700 AACSB accredited business schools in North America for articles appearing in the top three journals in the field (Administrative Science Quarterly, Academy of Management Review and Academy of Management Journal). The department came in at 58th in a worldwide comparison of over 1,000 AACSB accredited schools.
- For the same period, the department was ranked 26th among North American schools for publications in the Academy of Management Journal.
- For public or state supported schools, the same study ranked the UC Management Department 37th in North America.
- Four of our 12 research faculty published in these 3 journals during the time period, with others having articles in preparation for publication. This is noteworthy as some schools are dominated by only one or two authors appearing in these journals.
While there are many ways to measure research excellence, presence in the top, all-purpose management journals is certainly one objective approach to comparison. As such, we are exceedingly proud that the UC Management Department is among the elite research programs within the management discipline.

42 U.S. Code § 5801 - Congressional declaration of policy and purpose
The Congress hereby declares that the general welfare and the common defense and security require effective action to develop, and increase the efficiency and reliability of use of, all energy sources to meet the needs of present and future generations, to increase the productivity of the national economy and strengthen its position in regard to international trade, to make the Nation self-sufficient in energy, to advance the goals of restoring, protecting, and enhancing environmental quality, and to assure public health and safety.
The Congress finds that, to best achieve these objectives, improve Government operations, and assure the coordinated and effective development of all energy sources, it is necessary to establish an Energy Research and Development Administration to bring together and direct Federal activities relating to research and development on the various sources of energy, to increase the efficiency and reliability in the use of energy, and to carry out the performance of other functions, including but not limited to the Atomic Energy Commission's military and production activities and its general basic research activities. In establishing an Energy Research and Development Administration to achieve these objectives, the Congress intends that all possible sources of energy be developed consistent with warranted priorities.
The Congress finds that it is in the public interest that the licensing and related regulatory functions of the Atomic Energy Commission be separated from the performance of the other functions of the Commission, and that this separation be effected in an orderly manner, pursuant to this chapter, assuring adequacy of technical and other resources necessary for the performance of each.
The Congress declares that it is in the public interest and the policy of Congress that small business concerns be given a reasonable opportunity to participate, insofar as is possible, fairly and equitably in grants, contracts, purchases, and other Federal activities relating to research, development, and demonstration of sources of energy efficiency, and utilization and conservation of energy. In carrying out this policy, to the extent practicable, the Administrator shall consult with the Administrator of the Small Business Administration.
Determination of priorities which are warranted should be based on such considerations as power-related values of an energy source, preservation of materialresources, reduction of pollutants, export market potential (including reduction of imports), among others. On such a basis, energy sources warranting priority might include, but not be limited to, the various methods of utilizing solar energy.
This chapter, referred to in subsec. (c), was in the original "this Act", meaning Pub. L. 93–438, Oct. 11, 1974, 88 Stat. 1233, as amended, which enacted this chapter, amended sections 5313 to 5316 of Title 5, Government Organization and Employees, repealed sections 2031 and 2032 of this title, and enacted provisions set out as notes below. For complete classification of this Act to the Code, see Short Title note below and Tables.

Five UNC system students, members of the NC Student Power Union, were arrested at the General Assembly yesterday. They were part of a larger demonstration of about 100 students and others in the front of the General Assembly building, the purpose of which is explained in the statement released this morning by NCSPU.
When the protesters arrived on West Jones Street, police formed a line across the front of the building. Since the building is open to the public, it's unclear to me what authority they were invoking to keep selected people out. That said, when five of the protesters crossed through the police line, they were arrested. Others who were not part of the protest simply went around the line and entered the building freely. It suggests to me that the police were barring people from entry based on their political beliefs, which would seem to be a pretty clear First Amendment violation.
One of the students arrested, UNC-Chapel Hill senior Zaina Alsous, made a video prior to the demonstration explaining why she intended to engage in an act of civil disobedience. It's about 2:00 long — worth a look.
Here's what the police line looked like before the protesters crossed it —
And the statement from the NCSPU —
Raleigh, NC — Yesterday, on May Day, the NC Student Power Union mobilized over 350 students from 10 colleges from around the state to participate in a demonstration against the legislature's regressive agenda.
Students began their day with a rally at the NCSU Bell Tower and then marched to the Civitas Institute, a far-right think tank funded by multimillionaire and Deputy State Budget Director Art Pope. The demonstration raised opposition to the avalanche of backwards policies being advanced by legislators. They joined a broader coalition of workers, immigrant rights, and many other community organizations for a march from Moore Square Park to the NC legislature.
When the march arrived at Jones Street, students, young people, and others took over the street, and five sat down with a banner that read "We Demand a Future! Stop budget cuts! Stop racist voter laws! Stop attacks on workers!"
During the street occupation that lasted for nearly an hour, leaders of the Congressional Black Caucus, the NC NAACP, the AFL-CIO, and the Southern Workers Assembly, among others, delivered messages of support and solidarity as students spoke out against the attacks.
Demonstrators then attempted to bring their demands for justice into the legislature and five were arrested — Jessica Injejikian (UNC Charlotte), Tristan Munchel and Dhruv Pathak (UNC Greensboro), and Zaina Alsous and Carissa Morrison (UNC Chapel Hill). All 5 were charged with disorderly conduct, and Morrison and Pathak were additionally charged with misdemeanor assault on a government official.
"We stand behind these 5 students who took a bold and powerful action today and put their bodies on the line to stop the attacks on the people of NC," said Juan Miranda, a student at UNCG. "Our hope is that many others are inspired to join the fight back against these forces from destroying our state and taking us backwards. We will fight these charges to the end. The fact that these students were arrested simply for peacefully trying to enter and bring their demands into the 'People's House' is absurd, and the additional charges that Morrison and Pathak received are entirely baseless."
In a statement, Pathak explained why he participated in civil disobedience. "Education should be affordable and accessible to all students. The right wing legislature and current budget proposal will make it harder for students to get into school and stay in school. My family struggles with finances everyday and has trouble making ends meet. The last thing I need is a multimillionaire writing the state budget who wants to take away my financial aid...That's why I took this action today."
Students have vowed that they will be back to continue demonstrations throughout the summer with other organizations, and as long as is needed.

Features handles to hold onto as you climb up the step in the back. Inflates and deflates quickly so you can set it up in a jiffy and store it quickly between uses. Works great on grass or poolside for kids to slide into the pool. Holds up to 170 lbs.
59"W x 37-1/2"H
We were able to get the slide blown up(with our air compresser) in a matter of minutes.
To keep the slide weighed down, you fill the two sides up with water.
After that, we were all set to slide! Since the weight limit is 170lbs, we were all able to get in on the fun. This is my sister.
We hooked the water hose up to the sprayer at the top which made the slide extremely slippery. There are handles on each side to help you stabilize yourself while getting on the slide.
Evan was very hesitant at first, so we turned off the water. The bottom flat part slowed him down when he got to the bottom and also makes it where you're never in danger of getting hit on the side of the pool. I confess to sitting on the bottom part while the kids play in the deep end of the pool.
As with most things, Isabella was fearless and had to try it as soon as she saw Evan on it. I laugh when I see this picture - can you imagine how big this slide must seem to her?
We have already spent so much time on the Slide and the adults love it as much as the kids.
While we haven't tried it, I'm sure this slide would be a ton of fun even if you didn't have a pool. Think slip and slide - only taller! You could have them slide down on a small float-I bet it would be a blast.

About 3DPrintingPricecheck.com
The Team
3DPrintingPricecheck.com is a project by Jonas Neubert. Keeping up with the rapidly evolving world of 3D printing services wouldn't be possible without the help of a small team of trusted price checking assistants who regularly check the information provided here.
The idea for this page born in early 2012 while trying to get a comprehensive overview of the prices charged by online 3D printing services. Researching the cost for a specific item involves the cumbersome process of uploading a design file on each vendor's site, or searching through their not always quite up-to-date documentation pages. Luckily the situation has improved a lot by now (and I like to think this site played a role in the process). Nevertheless, manually comparing prices is still far from easy and that's why this page automates the process.
How does it work?
The purpose of this site is to provide you with price estimates for as many 3D printing services as possible and as many material options as possible. For each price a confidence level is shown to indicate how good I expect the estimate to be. For some vendors, this site queries their APIs for pricing information and it is safe to assume that the estimate is 100% correct. For others, the prices are manually collected from their website, and the confidence is lower because the price might have changed in the meantime, or somewhere a mistake happened in recording the pricing information. And last, some vendors do not publish their pricing information and the estimates here are based on reverse engineering the pricing scheme from online quotes. Naturally, that leads to a very low confidence.
If you spot an error, please leave Feedback.
For 3D Printing Services
If you are a 3D printing service, no matter if big, small or tiny, you can have your offers included on 3DPrintingPricecheck.com. Just drop me a message and we can figure out the easiest way to go about getting your offer details listed. No additional technical infrastructure is required on your end, getting your data listed can be as simple as sending an email with a few numbers.

When did you start making things?
When I was little I was obsessed with drawing, painting and making things, then when I was about 15/16 I began making jewellery, really kitsch stuff like tape-measure brooches, and earrings made from toy shoes and guitar plectrums. I decided to start selling on eBay and had weekly auctions for quite a while. I also sold through social networking sites like Livejournal and Myspace. I've gone off on loads of different tangents since then, so have ended up with an extremely eclectic collection of pieces that I've made over the years!
How did you find out about Handmade?
I took part in a couple of the Handmade Brighton craft fairs, which I found out about online. I'd also taken part in some other local craft fairs but the Handmade one looked particularly creative and interesting. I wanted to take part in the shop as soon as it opened, but was working day and night on my degree (fashion design) so had to wait til after I'd graduated.
What do you find is the most inspiring thing in your life? (person, place, object, etc)
I know it's really boring to say this, but it can be anything! I love pattern, shapes, lines, details and colours, rather than a particular 'style'. So I often find inspiration in the details on parts of buildings, natural forms, surfaces...things like that! I love art deco patterns and I also love the detail in world crafts/artworks, for example Indian textiles and tribal patterns. I did a print design internship in Jaipur, India, which got me really into print and pattern.
What is the song you just can't get out of your head right now?
Thanks to Spotify I've been listening to loads of bands I haven't heard in years so lots of nostalgia! Loads of cheesy metal and 90s pop too. One song that's been stuck in my head recently that's actually by a new band is 'I'll Be Alright' by a Brighton band called White Light.
Do you prefer to work alone or with others? Why?
I did love living and working with friends from my course while I was still studying my degree, and I enjoy having company and someone to chat to while I'm working. But particularly when I'm working on a new idea and I need to concentrate, I love being on my own and listening to really loud music while making things! I'd like to collaborate with people in the future though, could be fun…
What was the best meal you've eaten in the last week?
I attempted making some crispy spicy tofu and that went pretty well…also my friend cooked an amazing home made pizza the other day.
What do you like to do in your spare time?
Unfortunately I haven't won the lottery yet so I have to work in a pub to pay the bills! So really I'd say I do all my jewellery making/designing/researching in my spare time! Also love music and live gigs, watching films, and catching up with friends. How cheesy!
Thanks very much Rosa!

Brow Lift New York
Brow Lift
You don't have to be sad, tired, or frustrated to look that way – genetics, gravity, and age can make your face look older than you are, or at least older than you feel. No one appreciates a furrowed brow with sagging upper eyelids. Our New York patients turn to brow lift plastic surgery for a refreshed upper face.
Brow lift surgery, also called a forehead lift, provides effective, long-term improvements to the upper face. Most of our patients prefer the minimally invasive endoscopic brow lift that creates results very similar to the traditional approach and involves a quicker recovery period with less discomfort. The New York Group for Plastic Surgery's team of highly trained and skilled surgeons uses this modern technique to produce pleasing, natural-looking results.
Improvements from Brow Lift in New York
Our New York patients, who are typically between age 40 and 60, choose brow lift plastic surgery to improve:
- Sagging, droopy eyebrows
- Horizontal forehead creases
- Vertical "worry lines" between the eyebrows
- Hooding of the upper eyelids
Our surgeons typically combine a brow lift in New York with face lift and neck lift for a more comprehensive facial renewal from hairline to neckline. While it is common for a brow lift to also improve sagging upper eyelids, some patients combine the procedure with eyelid surgery for a more refreshed look to the overall eye area. Your surgeon will help you determine the right combination of procedures during your personalized consultation.
For minor forehead creases, some women and men visit our on-site medical spa for BOTOX® Cosmetic, Restylane®, Radiesse®, or JUVÉDERM® Injectable Gel. These treatments provide effective, temporary, non-surgical solutions that can postpone surgery for years in some cases.
What to Expect From Your Brow Lift in New York
Your New York brow lift will be performed in the on-site, outpatient surgical facility at one of our convenient locations. The endoscopic procedure involves only 3 to 5 small incisions along the hairline, so bruising, bleeding, and swelling is usually minimal. You will need to have someone drive you home and assist you for the first 1 to 2 days after surgery.
Your recovery period will depend on whether you have endoscopic surgery or traditional brow lift. It also can increase if you combine brow lift with additional procedures. You should be able to return to most activities after about a week to 10 days, and resume more vigorous exercise that increases blood pressure after several weeks.
When they are fully informed and have realistic expectations, our New York patients are usually pleased with the results of their brow lift plastic surgery. It's likely that you will be pleasantly surprised to see how much younger you will look without a furrowed forehead and the weight of sagging upper eyelids and eyebrows.

MOUNT UPTON The 86th Chenango County Firemens Convention kicks off at 5:30 tonight at the Borden Hose Company fire department in Mount Upton.
About 125 people are expected to be on hand, said Borden hose company veteran volunteer firefighter James Percival.
The banquet will begin with a memorial and dedication ceremony where the past, present and future members of the volunteer department in both the Mt. Upton and Rockdale stations will be honored with a mill stone from Vermont.
Percival, a 62-year member of the department, said this will be the companys fourth time hosting the convention, and this year is special because it is Bordens centennial as well. We are celebrating both the convention and 100 years in service, he said.
Following the dedication ceremony, the banquet will include a social hour, dinner and speakers including New York State Assemblyman Cliff Crouch, Chenango County Fire Coordinator Matt Beckwith and representatives from Guilford.
A full day of events are scheduled at the department on Saturday, including a firematics show between 1 and 1:30 p.m., a chicken barbecue, a parade starting at 5:30 p.m., and various displays and seminars covering the fire department grounds.
A book describing the county and another compiled by Borden members will be on display and on sale.
History of the Borden Hose Company
The history of Borden Hose Company dates back to September 1908, after the first ever New Years Eve ball dropped in Times Square and the 46th star (representing Oklahoma) was added to the American Flag. Men working at the Borden Company in Mt. Upton were beginning to organize the areas first fire department. The men were given orders to secure and protect the old Borden Milk Company from fire.

1. Dry Skin Soother: The thick texture of the balm ensures it makes a great soothing solution for dry skin patches, flaky elbows and dehydrated hands. A small amount can be massaged into the skin easily to leave it feeling instantly hydrated and tension relieved. It's great to carry around during the winter months, providing an effective hit of relief when the cold winds get too much.
2. Lipbalm: Great for dry and chapped lips, a small amount can help relieve tightness and restore the natural balance of your pout. No only does it provide shine and help to create the illusion of fuller lips, the formula is long-lasting and helps to soothe in the long-term too.
3. Cuticle Care: A little amount of balm massaged into each of the cuticles can help to hydrate dry skin and massage away dead cells. If you're not a fan of cuticle oil, then the Eight Hour Cream provides a thicker and more maleable formula which will help to keep your hands looking tip top.
4. Heel Relief Balm: Dry, cracked heels are unsightly and uncomfortable, but using a little of this can help to hydrate heels and prevent them from cracking further. It's great when used as a weekly treatment and massaged into feet to leave them super smooth.
5. Aftersun: Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hour Cream is proven to help relieve the symptoms of sunburn by rehydrating the skin's surface and soothing the damaged area. It contains Vitamin E, essential for healthy skin, and gets to work to leave skin feeling much better within eight hours... Hence the name!
6. Shaving Relief: In the same way the balm works as a great treatment for sunburn, the Eight Hour Cream works extremely well for irritation caused by shaving. It can also help soothe cuts and nicks caused by a dodgy razor, leaving your pins looking fab in no time.
7. In-Flight Companion: Thanks to its high concentration of ingredients and ability to rapidly hydrate the skin, Eight Hour Cream is a great companion if you're taking a long-haul flight. Apply it to your face after removing makeup and let it sink in during the flight duration, ensuring when you apply your makeup upon landing it sits perfectly and your complexion looks refreshed.
8. Eyebrow Tamer: The wax-like texture helps to calm unruly brows and comb them into shape, keeping them in place all day. Perfect for when you haven't had time to take a trip to the salon, or when you're just channeling your inner Cara Delevigne.
9. Face Mask: If you're suffering from the cold winter winds and your skin has seen better days, applying a thin layer of Eight Hour Cream as a face mask can provide a hydration kick. After twenty minutes your skin will feel plumped, refreshed and much smoother.
10. Spot Treatment: We all get unsightly pimples at certain times of the month, which ineveitably leave us with a dry and flaky patch that's worse than the original spot. Using a touch of Eight Hour Cream can help soothe the irritation, calm redness and hydrate skin to get your complexion back to normal much quicker.
Do you have any other uses for Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hour Cream? I'd love to know!
Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hour Cream is now available in a Fragrance Free version priced £22.10 for a 50ml tube.

Back Pain and Difference in Leg Length
Leg length inequalities are quite common and are an often-overlooked source of back pain. Spinal stenosis may also occur as a result of differences in leg length. This is likely due to the effect of chronic torsion and postural deviation, such as a tilted pelvis, which can cause the body to attempt to stabilize the spine through new bone creation, calcified ligaments, or thicker musculature. Unfortunately, the spinal nerves may be collateral damage in this process as the small spinal spaces through which they travel can be further restricted by such changes. In addition to this, the twisted posture that occurs, however minor, when one leg is longer than the other can itself put pressure on the spinal nerves through spinal stenosis, although this is often reversible through postural reeducation and simple devices such as shoe lifts.
Detecting the effects of leg length inequalities (LLIs, also known as leg length discrepancy or LLD) is possible using rasterstereography, a technique described by Betsch, et al (2011). This is non-invasive, contact-free and is considered reliable as an indicator of the consequences for spinal posture and pelvic obliquity (tilt). Even minor lower limb length discrepancy can result in pelvic tilt and torsion, although lateral and frontal deviation of the spine are not thought to be as badly affected.
True Leg Length Discrepancy
Biomechanical dysfunction in the lumbopelvic region can result from both a 'true' leg length discrepancy, or structural discrepancy, where the femur or tibia are actually different lengths. This kind of difference in leg length is usually congenital and many people have slight differences of half a millimeter to an inch. Other causes of structural leg length discrepancies include surgery, accidents, or fractures. These structural LLDs do not usually require surgery as the less severe cases can be addressed through the use of lifts in the shoe. However, using heel lifts to correct a leg length discrepancy that is causing back pain is not always advisable unless the LLD is truly structural.
Functional Leg Length Discrepancy
A functional leg length discrepancy is one where the bones are actually the same (or very similar) lengths but postural problems have caused one leg to appear longer (or shorter) than the other. Tight muscles in the back can lead to functional leg length discrepancies, as can improper rotation of the pelvis (sometimes referred to as anterior innominate rotation). An examples is where a tight right quadratus lumborum muscle pulls the right side of the iliac crest (the hip) upwards. When a patient with this phenomenon is lying down it would look like the right leg was shorter although the bones may very well be of a similar length. There is such variation in the ways that the muscles, ligaments, and bones in the pelvis and lower back are arranged in individuals that simply using a visual leg length comparison is insufficient for accurately assessing leg length discrepancies.
Diagnosing Leg Length Discrepancy as a Source of Lower Back Pain
Clearly, identifying structural differences in leg lengths at an early age is preferable as this means that a child has less opportunity to develop abnormal posture of the lower limbs, pelvis, and lumbar spine. This common cause of spinal stenosis symptoms is, therefore, less likely where heel lifts and/or surgery are used to rectify the dysfunction. X-Rays allow for an accurate comparison of bone lengths in the legs and, where X-Rays are unavailable, using bony landmarks on each leg and taking measurements can also be helpful, although less accurate. Functional LLDs are more likely to be the cause of back pain and spinal stenosis symptoms than structural discrepancies but the cause of the dysfunction is often harder to identify.
Treating Leg Length Discrepancy for Back Pain
Most LLDs that result in back pain do so because of soft tissue problems rather than overt spinal stenosis. However, where massage, muscle relaxants, or postural reeducation fail to adequately address the problem it may be that chronic leg length discrepancy has actually created a structural problem through new bone growth or the calcification of ligaments in the spine. Spinal stenosis may continue to progress if the inequality is unaddressed and may actually worsen initially during treatment as the patient gradually relearns appropriate posture using devices such as heel lifts. Very few studies have been carried out to assess the efficacy of treatments such as heel lifts or surgery for lower back pain thought due to differences in leg length.
Chronic LLDs may cause symptoms that take many months, if not years, to resolve after treatment as the spine adjusts to the new 'correct' position. Where significant damage to the spine has occurred, it may be necessary to cut problem ligaments or shave off osteophytes that are causing pinched nerves. Unfortunately, there are few methods elucidated for assessing problems with leg length discrepancies, pelvic distortions, and back pain symptoms, with more research needed to improve diagnosis and, therefore, prognosis of patients with back pain due to leg length differences.

Stem cells and neurodegenerative diseases
Stem cells are remarkable cells that are highly active during the initial growth and development of the human body, but are also found in small numbers in adults, where they support the repair of damaged tissues. Stem cells are unique in that they remain in an uncommitted state from which they can reproduce and give rise to many different cell types; they are the building blocks of our body. For instance, a single neural stem cell has the ability to divide and produce neurons of many different types, supporting glial cells, or more stem cells. The potential of stem cells to help our body resist or recover from disease and injury is an exciting and active area of research.
Stem cell technology offers a unique opportunity to develop a therapeutic approach to support and replace damaged nerve cells in patients with ALS and other degenerative neurological diseases. The passage of Proposal 2 in Michigan allows scientists for the first time to create the stem cell lines needed to develop these therapies, and PNR&D investigators have begun to dramatically increase research efforts in this area.
Preliminary research through the PNR&D shows that animals with ALS retain their ability to move and live much longer after they receive stem cell therapy. This has provided supporting evidence for the ongoing human ALS stem cell trial. Studies examining how stem cells provide protection in culture and in animal disease models are ongoing, and some of the questions these current PNR&D research efforts are trying to address include:
- What specific functions of the stem cells are providing benefit to damaged neural tissue?
- What is the best way to deliver cellular therapies to the nervous system?
- Can the protective ability of stem cells be enhanced in neurological diseases?
- Would this approach work in other neurological diseases, like Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease?
PNR&D scientists are developing innovative approaches to answer these questions, model disease, comprehend pathogenic mechanisms, screen potential treatments, and develop cellular therapies. Details on the current experiments designed to answer these questions are described in the stem cell research projects section on the ALS page.

text: Fourth-quarter job vacancy rate edges upNumber of jobs open jumped 6.3 per cent, led by rise in British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec04/17/2017|hrreporter.com|Last Updated: 04/17/2017 OTTAWA (Reuters) - The Canadian job vacancy rate edged higher in the fourth quarter compared to the year before as the number of open positions rose in provinces that have had the strongest labour markets, data from Statistics Canada showed on Thursday.The national vacancy rate rose to 2.4 per cent in the fourth quarter of last year, up from 2.3 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2015. The vacancy rate measures the share of all available jobs that are unfilled.The number of jobs that were open jumped 6.3 per cent to 374,895, led by a rise in vacancies in British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec, three provinces that have had the largest employment growth in the country, the statistics agency said."Clearly in those markets demand for labor has been quite strong and, apparently, not entirely satisfied either," said Robert Hogue, senior economist at Royal Bank of Canada."It's a sign of a fairly robust labour market."Vacancies rose 21 per cent in British Columbia, while its vacancy rate rose to 3.3 per cent. The province has had the highest vacancy rate among the provinces since the third quarter of 2015.Higher vacancy rates often suggest economic growth. British Columbia had the lowest unemployment rate in the country in March at 5.4 per cent, well below the national rate of 6.7 per cent.Quebec's vacancy rate rose to 1.8 per cent, while Ontario's increased to 2.6 percent, with the major city of Toronto accounting for much of the increase in unfilled positions.Strong job growth in Canada in recent months has suggested the economy is turning a corner after being hit by a drop in oil prices in 2015.The fourth-quarter vacancy figures confirmed the labor market had good momentum heading into 2017, Hogue said."We continue to expect that overall employment will continue to grow moderately," he said.RELATED ARTICLESEmployment increases by 11,600 Jobs in July: ReportQuebec sets aside $900 million for companies hurt by U.S. tariffsEmpty shipyard, suicides as 'Hyundai Town' grapples with grim future© Copyright Canadian HR Reporter, Thomson Reuters Canada Limited.

There are no well controlled studies with Haldol (haloperidol) in pregnant women. There are reports, however, of cases of limb malformations observed following maternal use of Haldol along with other drugs which have suspected teratogenic potential during the first trimester of pregnancy. Causal relationships were not established in these cases. Since such experience does not exclude the possibility of fetal damage due to Haldol, this drug should be used during pregnancy or in women likely to become pregnant only if the benefit clearly justifies a potential risk to the fetus.
The influence of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics of haloperidol has not been evaluated. About one-third of a haloperidol dose is excreted in urine, mostly as metabolites. Less than 3% of administered haloperidol is eliminated unchanged in the urine. Haloperidol metabolites are not considered to make a significant contribution to its activity, although for the reduced metabolite of haloperidol, back-conversion to haloperidol cannot be fully ruled out. Even though impairment of renal function is not expected to affect haloperidol elimination to a clinically relevant extent, caution is advised in patients with renal impairment, and especially those with severe impairment, due to the long half-life of haloperidol and its reduced metabolite, and the possibility of accumulation (see section ).
