text: The Global Energy and Climate Policy course offers an introduction to the theoretical and practical understanding of how energy and climate change policies are designed, shaped, advocated and implemented. As energy markets go truly global, domestic energy policies are becoming more and more entangled with wider issues of international governance. Concurrently, the urgent need to mitigate and adapt to climate change and transition to a low-carbon future is adding a further layer of complexity. The course is aimed broadly at people interested in learning more about interconnected issues in energy and climate policy globally. It assumes a level of interest but no necessary previous knowledge. However, the course also offers sufficient up to date research and new critical perspectives to be of interest to people with expertise in or academic familiarity with the topic as well. The main aim of the course is to provide this wide-ranging introduction in a self-contained, but in-depth form, alongside the important practical skills necessary to understand and discuss energy and climate policy, and lay the groundwork for greater engagement in the future – either through academic study, in the public, private or not-for-profit sectors.

Kyle Larson Crash At End Of NASCAR Nationwide Race Injures Fans (UPDATE)
A multi-car crash at the end of NASCAR's Nationwide Series race at Daytona International Speedway injured at least 28 spectators on Saturday, NASCAR said. After the lead cars became entangled coming down the front stretch on the final lap of the Drive4COPD 300, Kyle Larson's No. 32 car crashed violently into the fence in front of the grandstands, tearing the vehicle in half and sending debris into the seats.
Several ambulances sped to the grandstands to transport the injured spectators. Medical personnel treated many fans in the stands. Though Larson walked away, several injured spectators were transported to Halifax Health Medical Center of Daytona Beach. Other patients were treated at the scene.
Driver Regan Smith led before spinning into the wall triggering the crash. Other vehicles swerved and spun, with Larson's car launching into the fence. Debris was thrown more than 20 feet from the point of Larson's impact with the fence. The engine of his car was left in the stands after the crash.
The accident left many fans shocked and amazed at the devastation of the crash. Tony Stewart won the race, but did not celebrate in victory lane.
Daytona International Speedway president Joie Chitwood said during a Saturday evening press conference that Sunday's Daytona 500 race will go on as scheduled despite Saturday's crash that injured 28 spectators, including two critically. The fencing at the track is being repaired.
Fourteen of the injured were taken to area hospitals. Of the two patients listed in critical condition, one has a life-threatening head injury and the other is a child. Both are stable, Byron Cogdell, a spokesman at Halifax Health, said.

Genesis (Outline)
- Note: The content in this article is a Work in Progrees. This information was moved 3 August 2011 from the Main article Genesis and is in need of a tidy up to conform with the outline of the main article. Ixthis888
The Book of Genesis narrative.
The creation narrative in Genesis can be split into two sections - the first section starts with an account of the Creation of the universe by God, which occurs in six days, the second section is more human-oriented, and less concerned with explaining how the Earth, its creatures and its features came to exist as they are today.
Within the first section, on the first day God created light; on the second, the firmament of heaven; on the third, he separated water and land, and created plant life; on the fourth day he created the sun, moon, and stars; on the fifth day marine life and birds; on the sixth day land animals, and man and woman. On the seventh day, the Sabbath, God rested, and sanctified the day.
The second section of the creation narrative explains that the earth was lifeless, how God brought moisture to the soil and how man was formed from the dust (Adam translates from Hebrew to mean 'Red Earth').
Adam and Eve
God formed Adam out of earth ("adamah"), and set him in the Garden of Eden, to watch over it. Adam is allowed to eat of all the fruit within it, except that of the "Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil." God then brings all the animals to Adam (2:19). In verse 2:18, God says he will make a helper for Adam, singular, and then creates the animals. In 2:20, Adam studies all the animals and names them. He does not find his helpmate and notices that all the other animals have helpmates for them (the male and female). When Adam realizes this, God then puts him into a deep sleep, takes a rib from his side, and from it forms a woman (called later "Eve"), to be his companion (his helpmate).
Later, starting in verse 3:1, Eve was convinced by Satan, in the form of a serpent, to eat of the forbidden fruit, the only freedom that God had prohibited Adam and Eve in Eden. This turning from God is also considered the original sin in traditional Christian interpretation. As punishment, the ground is cursed, Adam and Eve become mortal (because they no longer have access to the Tree of Life), and they are driven out of the garden. The entrance to the garden is then guarded by cherubim with a flaming sword.
Adam and Eve initially have two sons, Cain and Abel. Eventually Cain grows envious of the favor found by his brother before God, and slays him. The first murder is that of a brother. Cain is sentenced to wander over the earth as a fugitive. He finally settles in the land of Nod.
From Adam to Noah
Cain, the son of Adam, builds the first known city in the Bible and calls it after the name of his son, Enoch (Genesis 4:17). Further down the line of genealogy, Lamech takes two wives (Genesis 4:19). Lamech's sons are the first dwellers in tents and owners of herds (Genesis 4:20, Jabal is called the "father of such as dwell in tents"), and they are the earliest inventors of musical instruments (Genesis 4:21) and workers in brass and iron (Genesis 4:22). These descendants of Cain know nothing about God (Genesis 4:16).
Another son of Adam, Seth, has in the meantime been born to Adam and Eve in place of the slain Abel (Genesis 4:25). Seth's descendants never lose thought of God (Genesis 4:26). The tenth in regular descent is Noah (Genesis 5:1-29). Adam and Eve also have other sons and daughters (Genesis 5:4). In line with most of the other biblical characters born before the flood whose ages are provided, Adam lived until the age of 930 (Genesis 5:5).
Chapter 5 provides a genealogy of descendants of Adam till Noah: Adam, Seth, Enosh, Kenan, Mahalalel, Jared, Enoch, Methuselah, Lamech, Noah
Noah and the great flood
In Genesis chapter 6, verse 2, the sons of God (the men who turned back to God after the original fall), took daughters of men (women who were in rebellion against God) to be their wives. Then, in Genesis 6:3, the Lord said; "My spirit shall not put up with humans for these lengths of time, for they are mortal flesh. In the future, humans shall live no more than 120 years." Then God looked down on the earth and was very displeased. He saw that the beautiful world He made was filled with the violence and hate of mankind; so He decided to cleanse the world with a flood and start again. God selected one man, Noah, and his family, to survive the flood. God commanded him to build a large ark, since the work of destruction was to be accomplished by means of a great flood. Noah obeyed the command, entering the ark together with his family, into which they also brought a mating pair of each kind of animal and bird on Earth. Water burst out of the ground and fell from the sky, and the world was flooded, destroying all living beings except those in the ark. When the flood had subsided, Noah's family left the ark, and God enters into a covenant with Noah and all his descendants, the entire human race. Noah soon planted a vineyard (ix. 20) and drank of its wine. While he is intoxicated, Noah is shamelessly treated by his son Ham; upon awakening, Noah cursed the latter in the person of Ham's son Canaan, while his sons Shem and Japheth are blessed.
Chapter 10 reviews the peoples descended from Japheth, Ham, and Shem. The dispersion of humanity into separate races and nations is described in the story of the Tower of Babel. Humanity is dispersed by a "confusion of tongues," which God brought about when men attempted to build a tower that should reach up to heaven. A genealogy is given of Shem's descendants.
Abram and Sarai
Terah, who lives in Ur of the Chaldees, has three sons: Abram, Nahor, and Haran, father of Lot. Abram married Sarai. God soon directs Abram to leave his home. Abram obeys, emigrating with his entire household and Lot, his brother's son, to the land of Canaan. Here God appears to him and promises that the land shall become the property of his descendants.However, Abram is forced by a famine to leave Canaan for Egypt. Once there, the Pharaoh of Egypt takes possession of the beautiful Sarai (whom Abram has misleadingly represented as his sister; she was in fact his half-sister). God afflicts Pharaoh with a disease, which the ruler recognizes as a sign from God; thus Pharaoh returns Sarai to Abram. Abram returns to Canaan and separates from Lot in order to put an end to land disputes. God again appears to Abram, promising him the whole country.
Abram and Melchizedek
Lot is taken prisoner by invading kings from the East. Abram pursues the victors with his armed retainers. Returning with his warband after rescuing Lot and his clan, Abram is met by Melchizedek, the king and high priest of Salem (Jerusalem), who blesses him; in return Abram gives him a tithe of his booty, refusing his share of the same. After this exploit God again appears to Abram and promises him protection, a rich reward, and numerous progeny. These descendants will pass four hundred years in servitude in a strange land, but after God has judged their oppressors they shall leave the land of their affliction, and the fourth generation shall return to Canaan.
Hagar and Ishmael
Sarai is still childless in her old age, so Sarai and Abram decide that they will produce an heir for Abram through his Egyptian handmaiden, Hagar. Abram takes her as a concubine and has a child with her named Ishmael. God again appears to Abram and enters into a personal covenant securing Abram's future: God promises numerous progeny, including one to Sarah within a year, changes Abram's name to "Abraham" and that of Sarai to "Sarah," and institutes the circumcision of all males as an eternal sign of this covenant. This meeting, in which three angels appear to Abraham and Sarah, is the subject of Andrei Rublev's famous icon, called either The Hospitality of Abraham or simply The Trinity.Sodom and Gomorrah
Next, Abraham also hears that God intends to send angels to execute judgment upon the wicked inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah. He intercedes for the sinners, bargaining with God for the lowest number of righteous people required to save the cities. God agrees that he will spare the cities in their entirety if only ten righteous people are to be found therein. Two angels go to Sodom, where they are hospitably received by Lot. The men of the city, however, pound on Lot's door, demanding to have sexual relations with the visitors. Having thus shown that they deserved their fate, Sodom and Gomorrah are destroyed by fire and brimstone.
Only Lot and his two daughters are saved. Lot's incestuous relationship with his daughters, which resulted in the births of Ammon and Moab, is also described.
Abraham journeys to Gerar, the country of Abimelech. Here once again he represents Sarah as his sister, and Abimelech plans to gain possession of her. He desists on being warned by God.
The birth of Isaac
At last the long-expected son of Abraham and Sarah is born and receives the name of "Isaac" (Itzhak: "will laugh" in Hebrew). At Sarah's insistence Ishmael, together with his mother Hagar, is driven out of the house. They also have a great future promised to them by God. Abraham, during the banquet that he gives in honor of Isaac's birth, enters into a covenant with Abimelech, who confirms his right to the well Beer-sheba.The near-sacrifice of Isaac
Now that Abraham seems to have all his desires fulfilled, having even provided for the future of his son, God subjects him to the greatest trial of his faith by demanding Isaac as a sacrifice. Abraham obeys; but, as he is about to lay the knife upon his son, God restrains him, promising him numberless descendants. On the death of Sarah, Abraham acquires Machpelah for a family tomb. Then he sends his servant to Mesopotamia, Nahor's home, to find among his relations a wife for Isaac; and Rebekah, Nahor's granddaughter, is chosen. Other children are born to Abraham by another wife, Keturah, among whose descendants are the Midianites, and he dies in a prosperous old age.
Esau and Jacob
After being married for twenty years Rebekah has twins by Isaac: Esau, who becomes a hunter, and Jacob (Ya'akov: "will follow"), who becomes a herdsman. Jacob persuades Esau to sell him his birthright, for which the latter does not care; notwithstanding this bargain, God appears to Isaac and repeats the promises given to Abraham. His wife, whom he represents as his sister, is endangered in the country of the Philistines, but King Abimelech himself averts disaster. In spite of the hostility of Abimelech's people, Isaac is fortunate in all his undertakings in that country, especially in digging wells. God appears to him at Beer-sheba, encourages him, and promises him blessings and numerous descendants; and Abimelech enters into a covenant with him at the same place. Esau marries Canaanite women, to the regret of his parents.
Rebekah persuades Jacob to dress himself as Esau, and thus obtain from his blinded by old age father the blessing intended for Esau. To escape his brother's vengeance, Jacob is sent to relations in Haran, being charged by Isaac to find a wife there. On the way God appears to him at night, promising protection and aid for himself and the land for his numerous descendants. Arrived at Haran, Jacob hires himself to Laban, his mother's brother, on condition that, after having served for seven years as a herdsman, he shall have for wife the younger daughter, Rachel, with whom he is in love. At the end of this period Laban gives him the elder daughter, Leah; Jacob therefore serves another seven years for Rachel, and after that six years more for cattle. In the meantime Leah bears him Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah; by Rachel's maid Bilhah he has Dan and Naphtali; by Zilpah, Leah's maid, Gad and Asher; then, by Leah again, Issachar, Zebulun, and Dinah; and finally, by Rachel, Joseph. He also acquires much wealth in flocks.
Jacob wrestles with God
In fear of Laban, Jacob flees with his family, but soon becomes reconciled with Laban. On approaching his home he is in fear of Esau, to whom he sends presents. While sleeping, a being (variously regarded as God, an angel, or a man), appears to Jacob and wrestles with him. The mysterious one pleads to be released before daybreak, but Jacob refuses to release the being until he agrees to bless him. The being announces to Jacob that he shall bear the name "Israel," which means "one who wrestled with God," and is freed.
The meeting with Esau proves a friendly one, and the brothers separate reconciled. Jacob settles at Shechem. His sons Simeon and Levi take vengeance on the city of Shechem, whose prince has raped their sister Dinah. On the road from Bethel, Rachel gives birth to a son, Benjamin, and dies.
Joseph the dreamer
Joseph, Jacob's favorite son, is hated by his brothers on account of his dreams prognosticating his future dominion, and on the advice of Judah is secretly sold to a caravan of Ishmaelite merchants going to Egypt. His brothers tell their father that a wild animal has devoured Joseph. Joseph, carried to Egypt, is there sold as a slave to Potiphar, one of Pharaoh's officials. He gains his master's confidence; but when the latter's wife, unable to seduce him, accuses him falsely, he is cast into prison. Here he correctly interprets the dreams of two of his fellow prisoners, the king's butler and baker. When Pharaoh is troubled by dreams that no one is able to interpret, the butler draws attention to Joseph. The latter is thereupon brought before Pharaoh, whose dreams he interprets to mean that seven years of abundance will be followed by seven years of famine. He advises the king to make provision accordingly, and is empowered to take the necessary steps, being appointed second in the kingdom. Joseph marries Asenath, the daughter of the priest Poti-pherah, by whom he has two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim, who were blessed by Israel, Ephraim with Israel's right hand, Manassah with Israel's left.When the famine comes it is felt even in Canaan; and Jacob sends his sons to Egypt to buy grain. The brothers appear before Joseph, who recognizes them, but does not reveal himself. After having proved them on this and on a second journey, and they having shown themselves so fearful and penitent that Judah even offers himself as a slave, Joseph reveals his identity, forgives his brothers the wrong they did him, and promises to settle in Egypt both them and his father. Jacob brings his whole family, numbering 66 persons, to Egypt, this making, inclusive of Joseph and his sons and himself, 70 persons. Pharaoh receives them amicably and assigns to them the land of Goshen. When Jacob feels the approach of death he sends for Joseph and his sons, and receives Ephraim and Manasseh among his own sons. Then he calls his sons to his bedside and reveals their future to them. Jacob dies, and is solemnly interred in the family tomb at Machpelah. Joseph lives to see his great-grandchildren, and on his death-bed he exhorts his brethren, if God should remember them and lead them out of the country, to take his bones with them. The book ends with Joseph's remains being put "in a coffin in Egypt." This, however, does not imply that his family was unfaithful to his wishes, but rather this burial is only temporary. Obviously, they could not have left him unburied for the remainder of their stay in Egypt. They do, in fact, take his bones with them on their journey and bury him at Shechem, a plot of ground already owned by their family (Joshua 24:32).

Randy Wolf vs. Joe Blanton.
COMMENTS: See those numbers atop the post, and how some of them have a strike line through them, and some of them don't? Math geniuses might have gleaned that it marks how many wins we have to achieve this postseason to claim the ultimate title. And we've got just about the same amount of marks now as we had last year, after sweeping another NL Central team in the first round (the Cubs), only to hit a roadblock against the Phillies.
In fact, there's a lot of parallels to where we were last year at this time. Down two games to one, we were coasting along with a 5-3 lead in 2008 NLCS Game 4, having scored five runs off of the same Philly starter we'll face tonight, Joe Blanton (5 ER in 7 IP in 2008 NLCS Game 4; 12-8 with a 4.05 ERA in 2009). We then met up against Shane Victorino and Matt Stairs, both of whom hit two-run home runs in the eighth to put the Phillies ahead for good. Game 4 was the backbreaker last year, and this year's Game 4 looks to be the series fulcrum again.
This time around, however, things will be different. For one thing, we've got Randy Wolf going for us; Wolf was yanked early (after 3.2 IP, with the lead) in Game 1 of the NLDS, and hasn't pitched in 12 days. He may be rusty, but he'll be rested and ready to go deep; his 2.78 road ERA, fifth in the league, also bodes well. And even Philly fans love and respect Randy Wolf, even though he's a Dodger now.
For another thing, we've got karma on our side (not to mention Fox, who would love a Dodgers-Yankees World Series). And karma will take down reliable, trusted players just the same as anyone else in its wake. Matt Holliday? Bonk. Chase Utley? Bonk. The Phillies might have slept well last night, but the karma police will come, and that fridge-buzzing is about to become a detuned radio.
And finally, they've got Chan Ho Park on their this time around, unlike last year. That alone may be keeping our playoff odds at 33% for this series, even down 2-1 and playing the next two on the road (we were at 57% for the NLCS prior to last night's aberration).
We can strike out the "7" after tonight's game. We can bring the series back to Los Angeles. We can win this series. We can do it. I believe.

Evening Reading: Spoilers
A couple of things I saw today got me thinking about the dilemma faced in both promoting and covering narrative driven games. In an interview with G4TV.com Heavy Rain director David Cage confirmed that they are working on a demo for the game. But they face two difficult problems. For one they don't want to give the wrong impression about what sort of game you'll be playing. For another they have to be careful about giving away too much of the story.
That second point came up again in another story I noticed while on the site. My good friend Patrick Klepek had been reviewing his notes from TGS and came across a little part he'd glossed over from a demo of Alan Wake. During it developer Remedy's managing director Matias Myllyrinne said that while it would be something they'd discuss with Microsoft that he'd prefer they hold back the ending from preview copies of the game sent out before release.
For my side of the deal it's a clear sign that we have to get better at what we do. Too often our stories amount to little more than book reports on the content in a game. Guess I better get to work. Or I could go catch the second half of Monday Night Football. It is Saints and Falcons after all.

Large drugstore chains, smaller local pharmacies, and other lawful organizations sell drugs online. In this situation, the benefits of buying drugs online are clear:
- Convenience, especially for people who are not able to get to the pharmacy easily or within business hours
- Saving time
- Saving money
- Privacy
Because you cannot necessarily go to the company you buy from, disreputable companies can take advantage of online consumers. The risks in this situation include:
- Receiving fake, unapproved, outdated, substandard, or harmful drugs
- Ordering from a company that does not have quality control standards for preparation and packaging
- Getting the wrong medication
- Not receiving the medication after paying for it
- Not having the correct label information
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) offers the following tips for making your online medication purchases safe and rewarding.
The Importance of Getting a Prescription
Only buy prescription medications online if your doctor has already diagnosed your condition and prescribed the medication. Taking prescription medications without the advice of your doctor puts you at risk for improper treatment, adverse reactions, and dangerous drug interactions. When prescribing a medication, your doctor considers a number of factors, including:
- Your overall health
- Your age
- Conditions that you have
- Other medications or supplements that you are taking
- Your lifestyle habits, such as drinking alcohol or smoking
All of these factors can influence how a drug will affect you.
The Importance of Buying from a Reputable Site
Reputable sites that sell medications are those that:
- Require a prescription from a licensed US healthcare provider
- Are a licensed pharmacy in good standing in the US
- Have a licensed pharmacist available to answer your questions
- Sell only drugs that are FDA-approved
- Have clear policies to protect your privacy
Websites that sell medications online without a prescription are not reputable. This includes sites that ask you to fill out a questionnaire in lieu of a prescription. Such a questionnaire is not a substitute for careful evaluation by your doctor.
You can check with the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) to find out if a site meets state and federal requirements. Some sites even display the NABP seal of approval for Verified Internet Pharmacy Practice Sites (VIPPS).
More Ways to Be Smart Online
Beware of Unreasonable Claims
Do not buy a drug from a site that makes outrageous claims about "amazing results," "a new cure," or a "cure all." It sounds cliché, but if something seems too good to be true, it probably is. If you think that you need a certain medication, talk to your doctor first.
Buy Only From US-Based Sites
Companies outside of the US are not regulated in the same way that US companies are. Although it may be a reputable company, you have no way of confirming that. Within the US, companies that sell drugs online can obtain a seal of approval from the NABP. You can also contact the NABP to check on a particular site. In addition, generally it is illegal to import the drugs you buy from a foreign site, and the US government may not be able to help you if you have a reaction or get ripped off.
Only Buy Drugs That Are FDA-Approved
The FDA ensures the safety and efficacy of medications in the US. You take a risk with your health when you buy a drug that is not approved by the FDA.
Check Prices
Online medication prices are not always better than prices in a regular drugstore. Call your local pharmacy and ask how much the drug costs and compare that to the online price. Also, make sure that the pharmacy is covered by your health insurance plan. In many states, drug stores are required to dispense generic drugs, which can save you money.
Report Problems to the FDA
If you suspect that a site selling medications is not a licensed pharmacy, report it to the FDA.

In Afghanistan, girls are required by law to go to school. However, many of them never do.
Death threats, acid attacks and bombings by Taliban militants and other extremists lead many parents who support female education to keep their daughters at home.
Sometimes, it's the families themselves who stand in the way. School officials in conservative communities say relatives are often more interested in marrying off their daughters or sisters than in helping them get an education.
If it wasn't a sin to commit suicide, I would. Life has become very bitter.
But some girls, like 18-year-old Rahmaniya, are fighting back.
The 10th-grader in the southern city of Kandahar province says the moments she savors most in her life are those she spends learning.
Rahmaniya, whose last name is being withheld to protect her, says she didn't dare go to school until her father passed away five years ago. He had vowed to disown her if she tried to get an education.
These days, the slight girl with big brown eyes dreams of going to college to study journalism.
But she adds that it's hard to think about the future when her older brother keeps threatening to stab her to death with a knife he carries in his pocket.
"Several times he has beaten me up," she says. "He tells me, 'You go ahead and go to school, and I'll throw acid on you like the Taliban. I'll go to the Taliban, and they'll protect me if I do this in this land of infidels where girls go to school.' "
Driven Into Hiding
Rahmaniya believes her brother's anger is rooted in jealousy, since he quit school a long time ago.
Her family, like many in Kandahar, is also struggling to make ends meet, and the teen says her brother wants her to marry. In Afghanistan, dowries bring in a lot of cash for the bride's family.
"But I don't want to get married, at least not before I finish my studies," Rahmaniya says.
Her brother's insistence that she wed is something Rahmaniya says she uses against him.
She explains that when he threatens to blind or maim her, she reminds him that disfiguring her will make it impossible to find a husband.
Still, the threats and beatings have driven Rahmaniya into hiding. She moves every few days from one sympathetic relative's house to another to avoid being found by her brother.
Societal Taboos, Taliban
Last week, her mother agreed to help plan her daughter's escape to a women's shelter in Kabul so she could continue her studies in safety.
The plan fell apart when Rahmaniya's mother caved in to family pressure that her daughter marry a relative.
The mother says the man will allow Rahmaniya to attend school after they wed. But her daughter believes that's a lie and refuses to marry the relative.
Saying she feels trapped, Rahmaniya begins to cry.
"If it wasn't a sin to commit suicide, I would," she says. "Life has become very bitter."
Ehsanullah Ehsan, who is director of the Kandahar Institute of Modern Studies, where some 800 girls go to school, says Rahmaniya's case is not unique. He adds that societal taboos are oftentimes as problematic for his students as the Taliban.
"There are many other threats ... extremist threats, warlord threats, tribal lord threats, family honor threats, because still there are families in which education is an honor problem. So these women who are coming here, they are brave to come here for an education," he says.
Ehsan says that bravery has translated into a brighter future for many young women; 300 of his graduates have gotten jobs in Kandahar.
But Rahmaniya says she doesn't want to stay in Afghanistan.
She says she yearns to go abroad, but that she's found no one who can help her.

The Sonics have been gone from Seattle nearly five years. Looking at it that way, what's three more weeks?
Aggravating, in the view of the more impatient Sonics fans, who were told Wednesday by the NBA that a decision on whether to relocate the Sacramento Kings to Seattle will not be made until early May.
After a meeting of the combined relocation and finance committees, NBA Commissioner David Stern emerged from the gathering to tell a platoon of reporters that much is yet to be done.
"The committee still has additional questions as they go through this in great detail," Stern said. "We're not even close.
"I'd be charitable to say the first week of May, but it could slide a bit."
The questions with each bid include potential lawsuits, arena finance issues, real estate issues and environmental reviews.
It will take the committee until next week to meet for a third time, then make a report, and a week after that for review by the 30 NBA owners, 23 of whom must approve a relocation.
What did emerge were a couple of hints that seemed favorable to the Seattle cause led by Chris Hansen and Steve Ballmer. For the first time, there was not a dismissal of the option of expansion to solve the unprecedented pursuit of a free-agent franchise by rich guys in two cities.
While Stern said there are "no current plans to expand," which was a re-statement of the obvious, Peter Holt, the owner of the San Antonio Spurs and new chair of the Board of Governors (owners), said "expansion was not off the table" although it was not discussed Wednesday.
"The world is growing," he said. "We're focused on China and India and those kind of places."
The second had to do with the quality of the Sacramento bid. Finally delivered Tuesday night after weeks of delay, the bid, according to an unnamed source quoted by the Sacramento Bee, was a non-binding term sheet that "was less than ideal," according to the source. The counter-offer included a requirement that the owners of the Kings, the Maloof family, terminate the deal with Hansen before the would-be Sacramento investors would sign a binding offer.
If true, it's likely a tactic to keep Hansen from raising his offer again, as he did Friday by throwing down another $25 million for the Maloofs atop the original offer of a $525 million valuation, an NBA record. But the requirement is highly unlikely to be accepted by the Maloofs, and seems foolish to even be asked. Nor has the group put down a nonrefundable deposit, as did Hansen when gave the Maloofs $30 million, although Stern said "yes" to a question about whether one was forthcoming.
The weak term sheet would be indicative of a growing suspicion that the Sacramento bidders, some just joining the fray in the last week, are in some disarray after such hasty assembly.
But the continued delays provide an opportunity for the Sactown crowd to clean itself up. And it also brings to light some NBA in-house politics that may play into the decision.
It's been clear since he first permitted Sacramento to make a counter-offer to the Hansen bid in January that Stern wants to give every chance to keep the Kings in town. And what Stern wants, he usually gets, because the tenure that began Feb, 1, 1984 has been successful in his No. 1 priority as commissioner — equity appreciation of each franchise. He has done well the bidding of his bosses.
Because he's been in the job for nearly 30 years, he has given purchase approval to nearly every owner of every franchise, including the Maloofs. Only the two teams in Los Angeles (the Clippers owned by Donald Sterling and the Lakers owned by the Buss family) and the Chicago Bulls (Jerry Reinsdorf) pre-date his tenure.
That means there is a current of gratitude and deference that runs deeper for Stern than for any of his sports-overlord contemporaries. And without knowing any particulars, he probably has some dirt on all of them. So while Stern can entertain disagreement on some issues, an owner who crosses him does so at his peril.
When they publicly backed out of an arena deal in 2012 that required a lot of effort by Stern, an effort that would have secured the Kings, the Maloofs crossed him. That really burned Stern, and he is now partial to taking the side of the town at every opportunity in order to remove the Maloofs from the lodge.
But in the 15 months since Hansen emerged as the white knight in Seattle, Stern, 70, has announced his retirement (Feb. 1) and has become, in some respects, a lame duck. His hand-picked successor, Adam Silver, is now at his side in most public appearances, and often speaks on his behalf.
Silver has been with the NBA for 22 years in five jobs, and was appointed deputy commissioner by unanimous BOG vote in 2006. He knows everyone in the league too. But his style will be different because the league, having been pulled out of the ditch by Stern, does not need a messianic tyrant.
"It will be a lot quieter with Adam," one current NBA executive told me recently. "He doesn't need to be David. Adam is someone who prefers working with owners, using the committee system, and directing the media initiatives and globalization in a collegial way."
How that plays regarding the pending vote on relocation is not known. Silver has kept his views to himself. But for those owners, particularly, the younger, newer crowd, there is an opportunity to break from the old fealty to King David without fear of some Old Testament pestilence visiting them in the night.


text: You Might Be Surprised How Much Geothermal Solutions Can Save You Here in Scranton November 13, 2017 As a home owner, you are routinely scouting for ways to save money. You make sure to switch off lights when you leave a room, you keep your home set to a few degrees warmer or cooler depending on the season, you ensure that there aren't any leaks coming through your windows or doors, and a ton of other things that you know can keep your utility bills low. But what about your actual heating and cooling system?If you're using a traditional system, you aren't getting the most efficient heating and cooling available to you. After all, a geothermal system can easily be three to four times MORE efficient than standard solutions that you find in most homes. That's just the tip of the iceberg, as well. Additional benefits that a geothermal heating and cooling system can bring to your home comprises of…Geothermal systems experience a coefficient of performance (COP) of anywhere between 3 and 4.5, sometimes even higher. What this means is that for each unity of energy used in the system, you'll get back the COP value in heat. To put this into perspective, a traditional heating system's COP is typically in the neighborhood of 0.7. That's a pretty significant increase!The upkeep on a geothermal system is pretty close to nothing. A correctly installed loop will last for a very long time. The unit itself is installed inside, typically in the garage. This means that it's shielded from the elements, and the only wear and tear it'll experience is from standard use. Quality parts and construction will give you piece of mind that it'll last a long time without requiring maintenance.A geothermal system can be installed with either a newly constructed house, or it can be installed as a retro fit. There are many styles of loop systems that can be used as well, so a home doesn't need as much space as you might be thinking. For example, a vertical loop system is installed straight into the ground, and only requires a small area compared to a horizontal loop.Top it all off with the fact that geothermal heating and cooling is one of the greenest energy solutions out there, and you've got a giant WIN-WIN situation. You can experience savings of up to 70% right out of the gate. Does this all sound like something that interests you? Give us a call today, and find out why Scranton homeowners have come to rely on us for all of their geothermal needs. Back To News

Twins Enlisted in Navy Shock Mother by Coming Home for Christmas
There was twice the amount of Christmas magic in the air for one mother this year.
Diane Soesman, 56, got the surprise of her life earlier this week when her identical twin sons -- both serving in the Navy -- surprised her by coming home.
Taylor and Chris Soesman had told their mother they would not be able to make it home to Massapequa, New York this year, so you can imagine the shock she felt when they both marched into the World Gym where she works on Monday morning.
As you can see, Diane is blown away. After she got her bearings, she later said, "My heart stopped...I was speechless."

Tuusanuuskat: Nääksää nää mun kyyneleet
Tuusanuuskat is a collaboration between Es and Tomutonttu. The name of the project Tuusanuuskat is a play on words derived from the phrase "tuusan nuuskana", (tr. total shambles). It is a Finnish saying that is used when something has broken to a million pieces. The phrase is generally used in a playful context, and often received with laughter. If you google "tuusan nuuskana", some of the first hits you'll get are: "After birth; private parts tuusan nuuskana", "Ferrari tuusan nuuskana" and "Steve Jobs mansion tuusan nuuskana". Yes, they have chosen their name wisely.
Es is a project of Sami Sänpäkkilä, a musician, film-maker and the head of Fonal Records. To date he has released five full length albums, and made tens of short films and music videos. He also recently scored the soundtrack to the Swedish award winning film Apflikorna. His music and films are experimental moodscapes that explore the themes of melancholy, pathos and hope.
Tomutonttu (tr. "dust gnome") is a human by the name of Jan Anderzén, a visual artist and leader of the respected avant-garde sound group Kemialliset Ystävät. Toy reed streams, mutilated vocals and groovy loops of animal noise are just some of the colours used to create the whirling mess that is the lonely song of Tomutonttu. His discography is a labyrinth reflecting the nature of his music.
Together, they have prepared an experimental cocktail that sounds like two drunken masters of music, conducting the protons and neutrons travelling from their instruments to their skulls and back, to create a musical nucleus. The CD and vinyl packaging both display Fonal's customary attention to detail. Both include a striped acetate film, that when placed over the cover, creates an animated sequence of images. The illusion works on the persistence of vision principle. The covers are designed and produced by Jari Suominen (of fellow Fonal recording artists Jarse and Shogun Kunitoki). The vinyl will have a limited edition run of 500 copies

The World Bank's executive directors have chosen Dr. Jim Yong Kim to be the development agency's next president.
Kim, who most recently has been president of Dartmouth College, is a former director of the Department of HIV/AIDS at the World Health Organization who was nominated to the post last month by President Obama.
By tradition, the bank's directors have followed the USA's lead when it comes to choosing a president — though there was some competition for the post this time. When he selected Kim, Obama said it is "time for a development professional to lead the world's largest development agency."
Kim's 5-year term is set to begin on July 1. He succeeds Robert Zoellick.
Update at 4:15 p.m. ET. An Unusual Choice:
As NPR's John Ydstie explains, "the top job at the World Bank has usually been reserved for financiers, economists or political heavyweights. There have been questions about whether Dr. Kim has the mindset to 'allocate scarce resources' as a banker or economist might do, or whether he's got the political skill to get things done at a global institution that has 187 member nations. But others have praised his qualifications, saying that Dr. Kim's experience makes him ideally suited for the job and that it is time for a development professional to lead the world's largest development agency."
As for the push by developing nations to have the job go to someone from thei world, John notes that "in the end the U.S. candidate prevailed because the U.S. has the greatest number of votes at the bank and it also has the support of Europe, which has the second largest bloc of votes."

There is something intensely satisfying about fruit curds and butters. They are intense in flavor, smooth, creamy and just simply luscious. Looking ahead to the summer produce I really am dreaming up all sorts of incredible fruity curds and butters I can make in my kitchen.
Fruit curds and butters are different to the usual jams, jellies and preserves, in that they are made with eggs and butter. Usually fruit curds are made with citrus fruit, typically lemon, but also oranges and limes.
Basically egg yolks are beaten together with sugar, fruit or fruit juice and zest over a water bath until thick and creamy. That's pretty much it. The result is an awesome topping that can be used in a variety of ways. From spreads on scones, muffins or toast to filling pies, cakes or even topping ice-creams.
For me fruit curds are life's simple but flavorful pleasures. Always homemade and always with a burst of all natural fruit flavors.
I adore passionfruit. The aromatic flesh and concentrated flavored pulp is pure pleasure and one can often find me behind the refrigerator door spooning the fruit pulp straight from the shells.
Passionfruit, also known as purple granadilla are egg-shaped tropical fruit native to South America and typically grown in Hawaii, Florida and California.
Passionfruit have a brittle, wrinkled purple-brown rind enclosing flesh-covered seeds, very similar to a pomegranate. As a matter of fact granadilla means "little pomegranate" in Spanish. The seeds are edible and the orange pulp can be enjoyed straight from the shell. More commonly passionfruit is sieved and its highly aromatic pulp and juice are used to flavor beverages and sauces. The pulp has an intense aromatic and very vivid flavor, while the texture is jelly-like and watery.
Health Benefits
Passionfruit is known for its various health benefits due to its excellent source of vitamins A and C. The presence of Vitamin A helps in the removal of free radicals from the body, which helps preventing various types of cancers and well as skin disorders. Vitamin C helps in repairing tissues and preventing heart diseases.
One passionfruit has only 16 calories and are a wonderful source of anti-oxidants. The seeds are edible and rich in fiber, which helps to improve the digestive system along with preventing colon cancer.
Passionfruit are powerful fruit and eaten regularly helps in the overall enhancement of your health.
There are a number of different types of passionfruit varieties. While the New Zealand passionfruit are purple, the Hawaiian variety are yellow. You can find all the several varieties of passionfruit here.
Selection and Preparation
When shopping for passionfruit, choose large, heavy, firm fruit. Ripe, passionfruit have a very dark purple color. Pale colored fruits are not ripe, but can be ripened at room temperature after they have been purchased. Once ripe, store the fruit in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Look for fruit that are dimpled and are wrinkly in appearance. Make sure though that the fruit are not too dimpled – this is a sign that the fruit has lost it's moisture and should be avoided.
Passionfruit is generally eaten fresh but may also be cooked for use in sauces and fillings. To enjoy a passionfruit begin by cutting the fruit in half and scooping out the fleshy pulp with a spoon. Spoon the pulp over ice creams or other creamy desserts. The pulp makes delicious jams or jellies and the seeds add a unique crunchy texture.
To remove seeds: Strain in a sieve, or use cheesecloth, squeezing to extract the juice.
So, when I bought passionfruit for the mango and passionfruit tiramisu, I made sure I bought enough for a delicious creamy curd. I mean what could be more decadent than spreading a thick layer of this smooth, slightly crunchy and extremely powerful passionfruit curd on a buttery saffron brioche for breakfast?
Tropical Passionfruit Curd
Printable version of recipe here
4 eggs
2 egg yolks
150g fine granulated sugar
8 passionfruit, pulp
125g butter, chopped and chilledMethod
- Place all the ingredients, except the butter in a metal bowl over a pot of simmering water or use a double boiler.
- Whisk the mixture continuously until it begins to thicken – approx. 10 minutes. The mixture should be so thick that when a wooden spoon is inserted into the mixture you can leave a trace at the back of the spoon.
- Once the mixture is thick remove from heat and stir in the cold butter until incorporated. Allow the curd to cool then transfer to sterilized jars. The passionfruit curd will keep in the refrigerator for 2 weeks.
Incredible burst of tropical flavors, this fruit curd is explosive and adds the perfect touch of sun every morning. I love the thick texture and that slight crunch from the seeds. Soeren spoons the stuff straight from the jar and Tom loves it on his vanilla ice-cream. I – well I'll show you how I like this passionfruit curd best next week. ;o)
Have a great weekend!
Also sending a huge thanks for the stumbles on my last post, mint meatballs with spelt risotto and a coriander pesto. Glad you liked it so much - according to my traffic ;o)You might like these sweet spreads from WFLH:

Racial discrimination is a major threat to African American women's mental health. It undermines their view of themselves as masters of their own life circumstances and makes them less psychologically resilient and more prone to depression. These findings (1) by Dr. Verna Keith, from Florida State University in the US and her colleagues, are published online in Springer's journal Sex Roles.
Dr. Keith and her team used data from the National Survey of American Life: Coping with Stress in the 21st Century to analyze the relationship between perceived discrimination and depressive symptoms among 2,300 African American adult women. They also looked at whether personal mastery — the belief that one can control important circumstances affecting one's life — explained the intensity of the women's psychological response to discrimination, and whether experiences of discrimination differed by skin complexion. The effects of age and education were also assessed.
African American women who viewed themselves as being able to exercise some control over their life circumstances reported fewer depressive symptoms. Women who were subjected to higher levels of unfair treatment experienced more depressive symptoms, in part, because day-to-day discrimination undermined their overall confidence in their ability to manage life challenges, leaving them feeling powerless and depressed.
The authors' analyses also showed that skin tone was not linked to level of discrimination, mastery or depressive symptoms. Older African American women reported slightly fewer experiences of discrimination, lower levels of mastery and fewer depressive symptoms than younger women. The more educated women felt more in control of their lives and experienced fewer depressive symptoms.
The authors conclude: "Our results show that perceptions of unfair treatment, like other chronic stressors, are psychologically burdensome to African American women. Our findings confirm that mastery mediates the relationship between discrimination and depressive symptoms and plays a major role in explaining why some African American women are more vulnerable to discrimination than others. Many women suffer emotionally because they are unable to view themselves as efficacious and competent actors when treated with suspicion and confronted with dehumanizing interactions."

For three years, too many innocent people in Syria have suffered — above all, the #childrenofSyria. They have seen homes, schools, and hospitals destroyed. They have borne the brunt of indiscriminate violence and witnessed unspeakable abuse. Millions have been forced to flee, while millions more are trapped inside Syria in horrific conditions.
Join World Vision, Save the Children, Mercy Corps, UNICEF, and UNHCR in preventing a lost generation of Syrian children. Sign our petition here.
Today, Meg Sattler, World Vision's communications manager for the Syria crisis response, describes meeting one of these children of Syria — a girl whose laughter would give way to tears without warning.
* * *
Today, a 15-year-old girl showed me a film of her bombed and ransacked house. She held her phone out in front of me, hands quivering slightly, and room by room I was taken on a shaky, somewhat pixilated tour of her family home. Heaps of clothes, papers, and trinkets covered dusty carpets amid overturned furniture. Here and there, a wall was blown out, sunshine streaming in where it didn't before.
"That is my mum and dad's room," she told me. The camera zoomed into an open drawer, where family photos were strewn about. A lifetime of memories, rearranged.
I met this girl, Ola*, in Jordan, near the Syrian border. Once a middle-class teenager, she is now a refugee. She and her peers are bullied. They are living in fear of abuse. She goes to school, but it isn't the same.
She is one of 2.5 million people from Syria who've now fled to neighboring countries. Like everyone I've met since I first arrived here last August, she loves her war-torn, broken Syria with every inch of her heart. Today, when twice without any warning her laughter gave way to tears, I wondered to what extent that heart had become war-torn and broken too.
Ola speaks articulately about issues facing Syrian children and youth. When I met her, she was participating in a session with other young people, deciding collectively which of their concerns would be most important to communicate to the public and key decision-makers. I hope, when that time comes in a few weeks, that their voices will be heard (their child report will be released later this month).
To so many around the world, the Syrian conflict is a political nightmare — tough to understand and perhaps easier to ignore. But blocking the Syrian crisis out of our hearts and minds does nothing to pressure parties involved in the conflict to agree upon a peaceful solution to the fighting or, at the very least, upon minimum standards to protect children. It also does nothing to ensure that Syrian children receive the aid they so desperately need right now, wherever they are.
Next week, the Syrian conflict will enter its fourth year. Millions will still be displaced within Syria. Many more will be making those first tentative steps away from the homes, bedrooms, and drawers full of photographs they've managed to hold onto for this long. They'll sadly move toward the uncertainty of life in a camp, settlement, new community, or new country.
Humanitarian workers will be calling for assistance to keep up with the ever-increasing needs. And Ola, her peers, and 2.5 million others, will carry on with their lives in foreign lands, laughing when they can and, as I glimpsed briefly today, crying when they can't — but carrying on regardless because that is what they can do.
Fifteen-year-old Ola is doing everything in her power to try to improve conditions for herself, her family, her friends — her Syria.
I hope the world is doing everything it can for her.
*Ola's name was changed to protect her privacy.

World Vision is working in Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria.
In Lebanon, we have assisted more than 190,000 Syrian refugees with food vouchers, hygiene kits, and projects to improve access to clean water and sanitation. World Vision also offers classes for Syrian children and operates Child-Friendly Spaces — safe areas where children can engage in fun activities and receive help recovering from emotional scars.
Aid efforts inside Syria are providing 70,000 people with clean water and primary healthcare services.
In Jordan, World Vision provides refugee families with basic supplies, such as food, household items, and cash to pay rent. Remedial classes help children catch up on lost classroom time.

Deer harvest declines as expected
Minnesota hunters harvested 184,649 deer during the 2012 season, down 4 percent from 2011, according to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
The decline reflects the fact that hunters had fewer chances to harvest antlerless deer because the 2012 season was designed to help stabilize and increase populations, said Leslie McInenly, DNR big game program leader.
"We expected the reduction," she said.
Firearms hunters harvested 155,599 deer while archery and muzzleloader hunters harvested 21,556 and 7,494 deer, respectively. The statewide archery harvest increased 5 percent. Muzzleloader harvest increased 1 percent and firearm harvest was down 5 percent from last year.
The DNR will conduct aerial surveys over portions of the state later this winter. Population modeling, coupled with select aerial surveys, will be used to determine deer density. Management designations for 2013 deer permit areas will be determined once the new density estimates are compared to established population goals.
"Hunters should pay close attention to the hunting synopsis, which comes out in mid-July, to see if they need to apply for a lottery either-sex permit," McInenly said.
The final deer harvest number is calculated using information provided by hunters when they register their deer. A final report, which includes more detailed harvest information, will be available online in the coming weeks at www.mndnr.gov/deer.
For the 2013 season, the deadline for the either-sex permit application is Thursday, Sept. 5. Archery deer hunting begins Saturday, Sept. 14. Firearms deer season opens Saturday, Nov. 9. Muzzleloader season opens Saturday, Nov. 30.

According to a study conducted by a Western University student completing her Masters' thesis, approximately 88 percent of Facebook users that went through a relationship breakup in the last twelve months use the social network to keep an eye on their ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend. Veronika Lukacs, the student conducting the study, wanted to see how distress caused by the end of a relationship is related to Facebook use. Subjects filled out a survey answering questions about Facebook usage post break-up and Lukacs also conducted interviews with the respondents.
When asked about the results of the study which was called "It's Complicated: Romantic Breakups and Their Aftermath on Facebook", Lukacs stated "What I found was that whether you were on Facebook all the time or not, your distress level changed based on how much surveillance you were doing (post break-up)."
She continued "The more surveillance there was, the more distress there was, but it's difficult to say why. Does surveillance make you more distressed, or are you distressed so you do more surveillance? My hunch is that it's a bit of both."
Definitely increasing the overall creepiness factor, seventy percent of the respondents admitted to using a mutual friend's Facebook profile to spy on their ex. This method of stalking is likely used after one member of the relationship deletes the other from their friend's list. However, both members of the relationship are still able to see likes and comments on the profiles of mutual friends. For increased privacy, Facebook also offers the ability to block another user from their entire Facebook profile. This action will hide all Facebook interactions from each person on all mutual friend profiles and neither party will show up in Facebook search. The only caveat to this method of profile blocking is that the ex will still appear in photos with mutual friends, assuming they aren't tagged when posted to Facebook.
Even worse than stalking from a friend's profile, several of the respondents admitted to logging in as their ex using a previously known password. Most commonly, the respondents were looking through Facebook messages for information on new relationships as well as other interactions.
Over half of the respondents admitted that they were jealous of a new picture posted by an ex and approximately a third of the respondents tried to post pictures that would make their ex jealous. In addition, about one third of Facebook users used a Facebook status update to post a "song lyric or quote" that described their ex. Surprisingly, nearly 50 percent of the respondents were still friends with their ex on the social network.
Nearly 75 percent of the respondents have attempted to learn more information about a new person that the ex is dating by visiting that person's Facebook profile. However, it's unlikely that they would be able to see much of the profile unless they were friends with that person. In addition, about 64 percent of the respondents used Facebook to read through old correspondence such as comments and messages in order to analyze what went wrong in the relationship.
When asked about prevention of this type of stalking behavior, Lukacs stated "Deleting seemed to be really effective but it depends on the severity of your creeping behaviour. Some people are active Facebook creepers and seek out information while others are affected by what comes up on their news feed."

For example, check out what showed up on this week's episode of Glee:
As I'm sure you've guessed, this was for the shop teacher who'd just returned to work after accidentally cutting off his thumbs. Naturally they served him a whole hand, too, which he then had to eat without the benefit of a fork:

These days I almost always have a batch of kimchi going in the fridge and my latest batch was ready. I could not wait to to try it and I knew exactly what I wanted to make, a kimchi pizza. Kimchi generally comes with a lot of liquid so you often need to squeeze the excess off. When making some dishes such as the kimchi quesadillas you even need to think about removing some of the moisture from the fermented cabbage to make sure that you do not end up with a soggy quesadilla. With a pizza however, I figured that all of that flavour packed kimchi juice would make the perfect pizza sauce. Bacon goes so well with kimchi that I did not even think about making the kimchi pizza without it and you couldn't have a pizza without some cheese. I still wanted something else on the pizza and I thought that some shiitake mushrooms would do well. Since I had just cooked some bacon I lightly sauteed the mushrooms in the grease before adding to the pizza to get even more of that bacon flavour. After the pizza came out of the oven I finished it off with some fresh sliced green onions and some toasted sesame seeds. The kimchi and bacon pizza with shiitake mushrooms exceeded all of my expectations! The spicy kimchi all covered with gooey melted cheese went so well with the salty bacon and everything worked really well in pizza form including the kimchi juice 'pizza sauce'. I am going to have to make this again soon!
Kimchi, Bacon and Shiitake Mushroom Pizza
- 4 strips bacon (cut into 1 inch slices)
- 4 ounces shiitake mushrooms (cleaned and sliced)
- 1 cup kimchi (chopped)
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese (grated)
- 1 pizza dough
- 2 green onions (sliced)
- 1 tables sesame seeds (toasted)
- Cook the bacon in a pan and set aside.
- Add the mushrooms and saute until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Assemble pizza.
- Bake in a preheated 500F/260C oven until golden brown, about 5-10 minutes.
- Serve garnished with green onions and sesame seeds.
