For those who are interested in more info:
Where did this come from?
In 1986, I was privileged to work on Amnesty Internationals 'The Secret Policeman's lll Ball', which led on to 'Nelson Mandela's 70th Birthday' Live Music event at Wembley, London, I was the personal Assistant to the Exec Producer, the visionary Neville Bolt. I learned about what a vision plus a global group of people speaking up can accomplish ~ and when Mandela was freed later, seeing that he went on to facilitate the end of Apartheid in South Africa, it has left me with a taste for big adventures. I'm also just a little partial to taking on impossible promises with outrageous goals I guess lol!
I worked on staff at The Hunger Project (THP) in 1991 as Assistant and Personal Coach for 6 months for CEO - Andy Davis CEO UK/Europe, European Income Director - Thomas Zwiefel and all the European CEO's. I had facilitated a paradigm shift in our relationship to ending hunger in partnership previously (at the European CEO meetings in Bamburg, Dec 1990), from one of guilt, insufficiency and "not enough" to Celebrating Life by Ending Hunger. We fulfilled our goal of raising 5 times the previous year's fund-raising goal in Europe in just 6 months! In this time the Berlin Wall came down and things I had been told would never happen in our lifetime, did happen, and continue to happen, even though we quickly forget about them.
During 1991 I sent a document to a few World Leaders called 'A Future for Communication' which you can read here :http://www.lynnehazelden.350.com/Future_for_communication.htm
This declares a new age; 'The Age of Thinking and Being Alive' and it invites you to step into it. Lol! Bold? Sure, and why not? I knew something had to change and that we have this capacity to create a world of peace, as I had experienced a personal transformation myself, from a life of one of complete suffering to one of profound inner peace ~ and given my past, I would have said impossible.
Excerpts from 'A Future for Communication:
In this context I look at war with no blame. As an adult I can see that war is an expression of the level of communication we have achieved so far on a planet full of human beings who already know the best thing for themselves, a planet where our ancestors determine the future and our cultures determine who we are. We believe we know best or at least have an idea of the right way to live in peace on this earth. We stand on ground that our ancestors say we own, and fight the elements as though they cannot understand who we are. We are sheer children in mastering communication. When we have tried every way we know how, we then DO war. As an adult we can own up to not knowing how to, and look beyond what we know. I see that this level of communication is present not only in countries who fight each other, but in all countries and at all levels, governments, management, and families. This exact same human being makes the world wrong and then will not talk to their next door neighbour, worse will not speak to members of their own family, gives up and expresses this same breakdown in communication by either saying they don't like them, or get on with them. So it may not be personal, maybe we are all just playing at war with each other, robbery, rape, murder, sending people to Coventry right here, right in this room with people we just give up on and do our own version of war to. Now as a child I will hear this and get upset as though someone is to blame. As an adult, I can look and recognise when I do this and own up to it, head held high and without loss of sleep.
I am not looking for answers, more like acknowledging that every child is already born to have this possible future. Some people and communities have already recognised this. What we can do now is declare a new age. I use declaration in this document to create a future to live into which includes everyone. When George Washington declared independence it did not exist like a thing/object, but it did express a future for everyone in that community to look to and from which to shape their actions. It also provides a context for something that already exists in the world and a place in it which can grow. I can see a future where people generate this for themselves, without having to be part of a development group or practice.
If I step into the age of thinking and being alive, I can look from there, and have humility and see where I can begin to talk to those I could not talk to and learn to master communication in those moments. Then I can be face to face with who I really am being without loss of face or dignity. Looking good becomes a thing of the past and my communication is an expression of myself.
From late 1991, I then worked for 5 yrs in a pioneering IT company called SilverPlatter Information led by visionary and entrepreneur Bela Hatvany and was accountable for launching the first commercial information service on SuperJANET, in partnership with UCL (London) and Sun Microsystems. I saw the power of the internet, I understood clearly that the structure and where it was heading.
By, 1995 I had fully awoken to the possibility of using the Internet's potential as more people had computers in their homes and laptops became normal part of business and life... we now have the ability to connect us in a way never been possible before. Now having this work experience, knowledge and also now having spent 6 yrs myself in transformational training and development work, I was now leading to people and pioneering new courses in my spare time.
I was in the middle of bringing courses for families, specifically Young People & Teens to Europe. We were engaging in a conversation for our potential with this community; by training, leading directly and as time went on, passing it on to others; building a community of about 1000 people throughout Europe over 9 yrs, in my spare time. Those courses were with children from 5 countries at a time (being translated via headphones!) and had them engaging simultaneously in questions such as 'What is it to be alive?' and 'What is the possibility of my life'. This led them to an opening to celebrate their lives and freely, powerfully to be fully expressed uniquely as themselves, with the potential for a life without suffering, resisting, struggling and free choice. Yet the natural outcome of this was that they would see responsibility as a freedom vs. a burden. Many naturally desired the world to work and wanted to take care of this planet and all that live on it.
It was the most incredible and awakening time for me to understand our great human potential. Bringing these courses to Europe for Children is probably the biggest accomplishment of my life and the one thing I guess that I most proud of. I realised we can all live in peace and inner peace was key to this.
An accumulation of this insight and experiences then led me to write a source document for a peace initiative which combined all these things... peace.doc can be read here http://www.lynnehazelden.350.com/1995_Peace_doc.htm
Not having time to follow this insight, I decided to send it as an idea out into the world to plant seeds so it could grow. At this time, I had contacts all over the world working in different levels of life. Given the above, I knew that it was something that someone may be able to consider and take on. It was a proposal for a global peace initiative where we gather the whole planet to wish, pray, meditate and celebrate Peace – but standing together 'in one moment' creating an energetic connection and focus and so to declare their wish freely in their own way, for peace with the intention to test theories and to create a shift in mass consciousness.
After 9 yrs volunteering in this work, then returning to Film & television in front and behind the Camera, I took the decision to have a break and to go backpacking to Australia & New Zealand. To give my body time to recover from an onset of allergy related problems with my teeth that had begun to show up in 1994, plus a small car accident in 1995. So I went to visit my long lost Aunt in Oz who had recently just found us, who was adopted at birth. This time was healing, nurturing and beautiful. I connected with people from all over the world and spent the millennium celebration on Sydney Harbour dock, squished side by side with thousand of people – simply sobbing in compete happiness, as I was present to one of the first truly global events that connected us all. The energy was clear and amazing. I experienced profound peace being there squashed with them all, and insignificant, and truly knew and sensed in that moment that we definitely have the potential to live side by side peacefully and the capacity to honour each other; If we have a context for our existence that can include everyone uniquely celebrating life... ah yes here we are again . Life as a Celebration!
In 2001, I begun to find out that there was a serious problem with my health – and by 2002 whilst having my mercury/ amalgam fillings replaced (as it turned out Guy's hospital admitted I was rarely proven allergic to them). With the experience of my brain sticking to my head and other awful issues during replacements, I felt something burst in my head and began to have to lay down. The next three years I spent mostly in bed and unable to function. Without going into details, I was in bed for three years barely awake, dribbling and trying to seem normal when I went out. I could not feed, clean, cook or walk far but kept trying to maintain the appearance of being a normal person outside home. As I had more windows of time being upright, I took on trying to work a little more but only managing to teach a few hours and finding I was crashing the whole time in-between. Having realised that life as I knew it was over, I knew my future was one of spending most of my life resting and small patches of trying to be normal ~ I surrendered and realised I had a choice, suffer about it or celebrate life just the way it is.
This was a kind of transformation I managed quite early on and whilst periods of despair came and went, I began to maintain a normal and very un-normal life here in bed. I still spend most of it here but it has been very useful. I found that one can make this choice for inner peace and live life from there regardless of circumstances or have to do battle with life itself and others. As I began to have a little time to consider this and my brain function improved ( I still have short term memory problems, exhaustion from small effort and pain in my body if I do not manage my life well) I began to have moment of great possibility for myself and others present most of the time. I found myself able to love my life regardless and it became about having others lives be great and cheering them on in what they are up to.
I have learned that we can suffer or have our lives make difference, simply by celebrating our lives in our own unique way, regardless of circumstance.
2007, All this led to here now... to a culmination of my life's work or should I just say existence ~ This Peace Initiative, a small banner/ certificate counting your voice to one stand for humanity ~ IS the smallest thing I could imagine, with the biggest potential outcome and the least effort for me and you lol!
SO I am asking YOU to choose what is in your heart, to step beyond your mind, reasons and justifications and follow it – I am asking you to choose Peace, download you banner and have your voice counted. Wiser people than me say if we did this, something would change or at least life will never be the same. There is only one way to test spiritual texts and Quantum scientist theories.. By actually counting, standing together and finding out what our potential is.
I hope you will join us
much love

The gross revenue of the Jamestown Bridge for the first 23 days of June was $19,763.70, down $1,631.69 from the same period in 1962. Traffic for this same period, as compared with 1962, was 37,589, or up 3,088. Singelis Painting Co. was awarded the contract to for painting the bridge for $12,000.
Public housing for the elderly was outlined at the Jamestown Town Council last night by Dr. Mary Mulvey, public housing consultant for the Housing & Home Finance Agency. According to the 1960 census, Jamestown has 277 citizens over 65 years eligible for federal housing aid and 383 60-year-olds at the time of the census. Dr. Mulvey said that 25 units would be a conservative number of units to provide and suggested that 50 units would be a more economical long-range request to make. From the Newport Daily News,

How do you know that TRU will not get this wave?
It's all wave 1 because they're grossly overpriced.
How is your local TRU store's Vintage stock?
JTA has a front-page report that EE.com is entirely out of ROTJ cases, and they won't be getting any more shipments. Does this mean that ROTJ cases will begin to dry up at retail? They've only been out for a little more than a month...
TRU really shot themselves in the foot with their Vintage pricing. I'm amazed that they haven't adjusted considering what the competition is doing.

Today was one of those days where things just got better and better as it went on. We didn't have to travel too far to see the TdF stage; our hotel in Villar d'Arene is less than 10 miles from the base of the Galibier (an all-uphill 10 miles, to be sure!), and then

Integrated Science Program (ISP)
TIIMES & ISSE are evolving to create the Integrated Science Program (ISP). This new program will initially focus on the current scientific objectives of TIIMES & ISSE while working across NCAR to facilitate projects and activities, and promote new integrated directions, through close partnership with NCAR's Laboratories and the community.
The ISP Mission:
The Integrated Study Program will promote the scientific frontiers that are dependent on an integrated approach, across NCAR laboratories and across disciplines. In particular, ISP will focus on thematic areas where the mission and expertise at NCAR, and in the university atmospheric and related sciences, can enable advances in social and environmental sciences and promote advances that are unlikely to occur within single NCAR laboratories or divisions. These areas specifically include, but are not limited to, earth system-society interactions, societal resilience to weather and climate hazards, the hydrologic sciences, and biogeochemistry.
Please visit the new ISP website for additional information.

programs within ISSE
One of ISSE's goals is to act as integrative force across NCAR. While contributing to ISSE's main research themes, these larger multi-year research programs and initiatives, lead by ISSE scientists, cross divisional boundaries at NCAR and present examples of integrative research.
Geographic Information System Initiative (GIS)
North American Regional Climate Change Assessment Program (NARCCAP)
NOAA's Regional Integrated Sciences & Assessment (RISA) Program. (RISA)
Collaborative Program on the Societal Impacts & Economic Benefits of Weather Information (SIP)
NCAR Climate & Weather Impact Assessment Science Program
Programs Within ISSE
Geographic Information System Initiative (GIS) recognizes systematic methods for organizing and sharing geospatial information are essential to advancing earth system science and other aspects of geosciences. GIS explores crucial issues related to integrating weather and climate data with complementary information from the physical sciences, social sciences, and related areas of the geosciences.
North American Regional Climate Change Assessment Program (NARCCAP) is an international program that will serve the high resolution climate scenario needs of both the United States and Canada, using regional climate model, coupled global climate model, and time-slice experiments.
RISA-NCAR Collaboration: ISSE is building collaborative ties with NOAA's Regional Integrated Sciences and Assessment (RISA) Program. Researchers at NCAR and RISA Centers around the country will initially focus on three topics: (1) downscaled climate change projections through NARCCAP; (2) Water-weather-climate interactions; and (3) Capturing & assessing RISA science-stakeholder interaction.
Societal Impacts Program: With funding from the U.S. Weather Research Program, NCAR established the Collaborative Program on the Societal Impacts & Economic Benefits of Weather Information (SIP). SIP is a focal point for assembling, coordinating, developing, and synthesizing research and information on societal impacts & economic benefits of weather information.
NCAR's Climate & Weather Impact Assessment Science Program focuses on critical scientific gaps in the weather and climate arenas that have proved challenging for decision-makers and scientists alike: 1) characterizing uncertainty; 2) extreme weather & climate events; and 3) the role of climate in human health.

Olympic wrestling hopeful filing suit; ASWA stands firm
Carl Floor, Jr. says he is prepared to file a court injunction against the American Samoa Wrestling Association and the American Samoa National Olympic Committee if they do not change their position and allow him to represent American Samoa in Wrestling at the 2012 Olympic Games in London; while the ASWA stands firm with its choice of Nathaniel Tuamoheloa to represent wrestling and American Samoa at the Games.
According to the email, dated Saturday, June 23, sent to Ethan Lake head of the ASWA and Ken Tupua, president of ASNOC, and cc'd to a Samoa News reporter, the deadline for ASWA and ASNOC to make their decision was at noon on Monday, June 25, 2012.
At the center of the issue is Carl Floor, Jr., who won 2nd place in his weight class, in the African/Oceania Olympic Qualifier, that took place in Morocco from March 16-18 2012.
This win earned a slot for American Samoa to compete in the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in Wrestling in the 96kg class. It was believed that 'CJ' (Carl Jr.'s nickname) would go.
However, as reported by Samoa News, in our June 11 issue, ASNOC announced its decision to take Nathaniel Tuamoheloa to compete in the 96kg freestyle slot instead.
Samoa News understands that it's when CJ returned from the Morocco competition that his Olympic troubles began.
According to CJ, in an online petition, after qualifying, he returned home to American Samoa and asked the wrestling association (ASWA) and the ASNOC for a more qualified coach to train him in preparation for his dream to win a Gold Medal and accompany him to England.
The petition states that the ASWA responded by removing CJ and his father, Carl Floor Sr. from the Coaching Position he held at Samoana High School in Utulei, American Samoa and informed CJ he would not be going to the Olympics.
In response to questions on the issue, Carl Floor Sr. told Samoa News that they have retained an attorney, but would not reveal who their attorney is. He noted they will file an injunction with the court.
In a statement to the media, Floor, Sr. said, "I'd like an opportunity to state my facts leading to issues pertaining to my removal from ASWA, the unfair replacement of my son and the unethical activities of the ASWA and ASNOC."
He drew attention to his claims stating "the day I was named secretary [of ASWA] I've asked for the by laws and Articles of Incorporation [of ASWA] to validate the legality of my appointment. I have been denied this for six months. None have been produced."
In the June 23 email, a request was also made for a copy of the Articles of Corporation and by- laws of the ASWA [the local wrestling association], for the "4th and final time" — as Floor's lawyer said it is needed.
Floor Sr. in his media release, in part, states that "CJ is a bonafide 96 kg wrestler with over 600 matches and I have coached most of them. Ethan has trained CJ only twice and was in his corner coaching him three times. The Olympic competition demands a good relationship between athlete and coach."
"The replacement wrestler is the fourth choice after Caleb Scanlan, Manu and Steven declined. The replacement wrestler didn't wrestle at all this entire year and is under weight by 12 kg. This can be a dangerous situation," the elder Floor said.
"CJ and I tried to meet with the ASNOC on many occasions and was denied. Under their bylaws they are supposed to advise their athletes."
Floor, Sr. states that CJ was denied his due process of Olympic selection. "All countries except American Samoa hold a national tournament and the winner competes. It is not the president's choice, regardless of personal feelings."
(Floor, Sr.'s full statement to Samoa News can be found on samoanews.com)
Lake told Samoa News, in response to queries on the CJ issue, that "the ASWA regrets the fact that CJ Floor will not be representing American Samoa in the 2012 Olympics. Unfortunately, this decision was made by CJ Floor himself, not the ASWA."
He explains that "CJ Floor already held the spot as American Samoa's National Champion at 96kg which is why he was selected and was sent to represent American Samoa in Oceania and again in Africa earlier this year. After qualifying the 96kg slot for American Samoa, CJ was again selected to represent American Samoa for the 2012 Olympics."
"Unfortunately, CJ and his father, who moved down here for the first time in November, told ASWA that if his father was not put on the official delegation that CJ would choose not to go," according to Lake.
"The ASWA does not give in to extortion demands and thus on March 23, the ASWA had a meeting with CJ and his dad where they were informed that Carl Floor, Sr. would be removed from all consideration and all ASWA activities." Lake said.
However, "CJ was still given the opportunity to represent American Samoa and was told that he was the one selected. Regrettably, CJ made his own choice not to go because the dad would not be on the official delegation; despite the fact that both the ASWA president and vice president strongly advised CJ not to make the decision of not going."
Of the choice to send Nathaniel Tuamoheloa, in place of CJ, Lake notes that "after CJ made his decision not to go, the ASWA immediately proceeded to evaluate other candidates. Even though CJ would later change his mind, the evaluation process to select another candidate had already begun. CJ had his chance and messed it up. He was told he would have to earn it again. CJ was advised that for him to be reconsidered, he needed to rebuild the bridge and write a formal letter of apology."
In Carl Sr.'s statement, he explains that "CJ did apologize but the apology was deemed not worthy. CJ after five days reconsidered his position under my advice to allow Ethan to coach."
Lake says that "CJ has elected not to rebuild that bridge and instead has attacked the ASWA because he feels he is the only wrestler in the territory good enough to represent American Samoa and that his dad is the only one qualified to be in his corner. The ASWA agrees that CJ has more than showed he can represent American Samoa on the mat, which is why he was selected and given the opportunity to represent American Samoa in the first place. However a person's actions off the mat are equally important."
"To represent your country in the Olympics, one must understand the responsibility of an athletic ambassador. It is to understand that you are not there for yourself but that you are there for your country. If you cannot put your country before yourself, then you do not deserve to represent your country and you do not deserve to be in the Olympics. An athletic ambassador must represent his or her country both on the mat and off the mat, on the court and off the court, on the field and off the field.
Lake concluded: "The ASWA is proud to have Nathaniel Tuamoheloa represent American Samoa in the 2012 Olympics. Nathaniel was selected based on his ability to positively represent American Samoa, not just on the mat but off the mat as well.
"He has positively represented American Samoa for the year both locally and internationally. His record speaks for itself."

4.1 Million Dollars
was that mike tysons house originally?
Pfffft, only 4 chimneys.
Squabble lanes guest house has more chimneys
Home of 50 Cent destroyed by fire
DIX HILLS (WABC) -- Six people are hospitalized after a fire, described as "suspicious," burned down a multimillion-dollar Long Island home owned by Grammy-nominated rapper 50 Cent.
The blaze occurred just days after a heated confrontation inside the woman's attorney's office over the home. 50 Cent does not live in the home and apparently wasn't there at the time.
Yeah, I think it's in Farmington, CT. So Fifty can be close to the "street".
Yeah, but he's still black......
Zillow has it listed as only 48k sqaure feet. Way to small.
Used the calculator ...with 1% down (85k according to zillow) my monthly payment would only be 30k a month.
I feel like that is a really good price for that amazing house, but in the end, it'll end up costing so much more than it should. Think of the staff you'd have to hire to keep everything in line. So not only are you paying that huge monthly nut, you then have to pay salaries.
It doesn't seem like a good idea unless you are incredibly rich. I guess 50 is about there though.
nice digs...good for him
is it really 55,000sq ft? isn't he concerned about his carbon footprint?
this is one aspect of america that i find vile...there should be a limit to how big a single family home can be..howard lives in a hovel compared to this guy.
he can take half the homies from bridgeport in to live with him.
I'll never understand why anyone would want to live in a house the size of a hotel...
The one and only use for a house like that is showing off.
There is absolutely zero other logical reason.
CARBON FOOTPRINT? how was your trip to DC yesterday for the inauguration? Did you happen to see Al Gore get out of his private jet roughly the size of a 737?
No pool for 50, but it has got a pond. I'm good with that.
is it da pooooowl or a pond?
I worked an event there, it's a nice place but feels impersonal- it's more of a hotel than a mansion...
There was a very attractive white female guest with a gigantic bubble butt to DIE for...you don't forget an ass like that...
Could you imagine what the monthly property taxes are for that thing!
And it's in Connecticut too so it's probably 10 times what you were thinking (if you're outside the NY-Metro area).
mike tyson gave a tour once, probably on youtube.
the blaeks like to show off before they go broke

Most trees are not well adapted to saturated soil conditions.
Most trees are not well adapted to saturated soil conditions.
With nearly daily rainfall this spring and summer � sometimes in record amounts � the ground became inundated with water. When excess moisture dramatically changes root environment, especially during the growing season, a tree�s entire physiology is altered, which may result in the tree�s death.
Water-saturated soil reduces the supply of oxygen to tree roots, raises the soil�s pH, and changes the decomposition rate of organic material � all of which weaken the tree, making it more susceptible to indirect damage from insects and diseases.
Additionally, with heavy rainfall there is erosion and sediment movement. Exposed roots or roots covered by excess soil add stress to plants. When rain finally stops, the tree�s system often has been so compromised that it can�t perform functions necessary to survival � so it just dies.
Altered processes
When the ground becomes completely saturated, a tree�s metabolic processes change quickly.
Photosynthesis shuts down within five hours; the tree is in starvation mode and lives on stored starches. Water moves into and occupies all available pores that once held oxygen. Any remaining oxygen is used within three hours. Lack of oxygen prevents the normal decomposition of organic matter, which leads to production and accumulation of toxic gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, hydrogen sulfide and nitrogen oxide.
Additionally, there is noticeable root growth loss within seven days. Roots only develop when soil oxygen levels are at 5-15 percent. Soon, pathogens attack decaying roots. Loss of root mass from decay and fungal attack leave the tree prone to drought damage. After two weeks of saturated soil conditions, the root crown area can have so many problems that decline and even death are imminent.
Sealed fate
Nutrient uptake is necessary for plants to function. However, in saturated soil, anaerobic organisms � primarily bacteria � replace the aerobic organisms that once existed in the soil. These bacteria convert nitrogen into forms unavailable to plants.
In addition, manganese, iron and sulfur become limited because the soil pH has increased, making the elements unrecognizable. With little to no functioning root system, trees in saturated soils do not have the means to uptake nutrients, even if they were available.
When a tree experiences anaerobic soil conditions, it will exhibit symptoms of leaf loss with minimal to no new leaf formation. This usually appears two to eight weeks after the soil dries out again. Many trees � especially more juvenile and mature trees � will not survive.
Well-established trees may still decline several years later, if they experience additional stresses such as drought or root disturbance from construction.
Preventive measures
Little can be done to combat damage caused by soil saturation. However, it is important to enable the tree to conserve its food supply by resisting pruning and to avoid fertilizing until the following growth season.
Mulch removal will aid in the availability of soil oxygen. It is a �wait and see� process. While water is essential to trees� survival, it can also be a detriment when it is excessive.

LAS VEGAS, Nevada, August 18, 2008 (ENS) - "Who would have thought last year that me and T. Boone Pickens would be in the same boat pulling the same oar the same way," U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada marveled to reporters on a teleconference last week to promote the National Clean Energy Summit that opened here today.
Once political foes, the Nevada politician and the billionaire oilman who funded his opponents have decided that energy is a bipartisan issue so important that it overrides political affiliation.
"When you go to the gas pump you don't check whether you are a Democrat or Republican," Reid said on the conference call with Pickens.
The two-day National Clean Energy Summit will be a wide-open discussion of all forms of energy - fossil fuel development and nuclear power as well as renewables.
Discussions will be shaped by Pickens' introduction of a plan to wean America off foreign oil with wind, natural gas, more domestic oil production and nuclear development. Since introducing it in early July, Pickens has been promoting his plan with TV ads and town hall meetings.
Pickens Plan:
- Step #1: Using the United States' wind corridor, private industry will fund the installation of thousands of wind turbines in the wind belt, generating enough power to provide 20 percent or more of our electricity supply
- Step #2: Again funded by the private sector, electric power transmission lines will be built, connecting these wind power generating sites with power plants providing energy to the population centers in the Midwest, South and Western regions of the country.
- Step #3: With the energy from wind now available to operate power plants serving the large population centers in key areas of the country, the natural gas that was historically utilized to fuel these power plants can be redirected and used to replace imported gasoline and diesel as a fuel for thousands of vehicles in our transportation system.
Pickens also favors drilling offshore and the development of nuclear power in the United States - whatever it takes to change the unacceptable situation the country is in today.
"Now dependent on foreign nations for 70 percent of its oil, the U.S. is exporting $700 billion annually, more than four times the cost of the Iraq war," said Pickens, who has worked in the oil and gas industry for nearly six decades.
Reid says America can only realize its renewable potential after Congress reauthorizes production tax credits for developers of wind, solar and other renewable energy technologies.
"There are people standing by with billions ready to invest in the future, sun, wind, geothermal, biomass," Reid said, adding that thousands of jobs have been lost over the last four monts as a result of not extending the tax credits.
Famous for his opposition to the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste dump planned for a site 90 miles northwest of Las Vegas, Reid said on the conference call that he is "not saying no, no, no to nuclear."
But Reid said most parts of the country cannot use nuclear power because it uses so much for water for cooling. And, he insisted, nuclear waste must be buried where it is generated instead of being shipped to Nevada for burial at Yucca Mountain.
To Reid, drilling for more oil and gas is not the whole energy solution. "Let's make sure everyone understands," he said, "we can't drill our way of this situation, but we will do everything we can to produce more domestic energy. Just two years ago, I pushed for 8.3 million acres of drill sites in the Gulf of Mexico - now that is done."
In Reno, Nevada on Sunday, Pickens met with presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Senator Barack Obama of Illinois to discuss Pickens' energy plan.
Pickens held a parallel meeting with presumptive Republican presidential nominee Senator John McCain of Arizona on Friday.
In practically identical statements, Pickens said that he told each candidate "any credible domestic energy policy must reduce our dependence on foreign oil by at least 30 percent in the next 10 years."
Pickens described Obama as "very engaged."
"He understands the issues and is interested and excited by the work we are doing to educate and involve the people," said Pickens.
Pickens said McCain was "interested and encouraged."
"McCain very sensitive to security," Pickens said. "Importing 70 percent of our oil - now that's an issue of security. It's going to take us 10 years to reduce our dependency by 30 percent.
Reid says Al Gore was invited to speak at the National Clean Energy Summit but was not available. But the former vice president and Nobel Peace Prize Laureate did find time to listen and comment on the speech Reid will give today as he opens the summit.

As Hurricane Season Begins, EPA Reminds Local Facilities to Be Prepared
Release Date: 06/13/2006
Contact Information: Ben Barry, (212) 637-3651, firstname.lastname@example.com
(New York, NY) – In anticipation of this year's hurricane season, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been working with local facilities to prepare for the worst. Based on lessons learned from last year's dramatic hurricane season that impacted the Gulf Coast and New Orleans, EPA has distributed information to owners and operators of facilities that use hazardous chemicals. This information is intended to help them avoid an accidental release caused by a hurricane or other severe weather.
"People around the country saw the devastation that Hurricane Katrina inflicted on our country last year," said Regional Administrator Alan J. Steinberg. "Facilities need to be prepared for the worst in order to avoid the release of hazardous substances into the environment."
Facilities that use potentially hazardous chemicals are required to be prepared for severe weather conditions to avoid accidental releases. In 1999, EPA issued and settled complaints for a total of $168,000 in fines against four facilities in Puerto Rico for their failure to take appropriate action before and during the 1998 Hurricane Georges. The cases included a 16,000-gallon spill of fuel oil, a 1,700-gallon caustic soda spill, the loss of nearly 50 drums containing hazardous substances, and the loss of a 2,000-pound chlorine cylinder. In each case, there was a failure to report the incidents in a timely manner to the appropriate authorities. EPA also found examples of environmental damage and unsafe operations, such as the failure to maintain an accurate inventory before the event, failure to obtain a reliable inventory after the event, and failure to ensure correct operation of a secondary containment dike.

It's that time of year.
You open your window on a warm day, breathe deep, and all of a sudden the itchy, watery eyes and sneezes set in.
When allergies strike, there are natural alternatives to Claritin and similar over-the-counter drugs.
Boulder herbalist Brigitte Mars suggests reducing the amount of dairy and wheat in one's diet, because those substances can produce phlegm. Another dietary adjustment involves eating more spicy and pungent foods, like cayenne, ginger and garlic, because those can open up nasal passages.
Mars says temporary lifestyle changes as simple as doing errands outside the home in the morning, when pollen counts are lower, might reduce allergy symptoms. Even avoiding drying clothes outside on a line, where they can collect pollen, can make a difference.
She also recommends taking a homeopathic remedy that actually includes local pollens, like Allergena Zone 6, because it stimulates an immune response similar to taking a flu vaccine.
In addition, Mars advises taking quercetin, a bioflavonoid that is a good vitamin supplement for hayfever, and using a "neti pot," an Ayurvedic tradition from India that involves flushing out nasal passages with a mixture of water and salt.
But one main question in the war against allergies revolves around whether you are currently in the throes of an attack or are simply wanting to prevent the onset of such symptoms.
Finding the herbs that are key to your relief may be as simple as reading the ingredients listed on the bottles in your local health food store.
Local herbalist Matthew Becker, an instructor at the North American Institute of Medical Herbalism and lead practitioner at the Pharmaca Integrative Pharmacy in North Boulder, says there are herbal remedies for both prevention and treatment.
For those who want to take a proactive approach to heading off common spring allergy symptoms before they begin, Becker recommends preparing the immune system. And preparing does not necessarily mean boosting. Allergic reactions, he explains, are usually caused by the immune system over-reacting to changes in the environment, so one can take an herbal remedy that simply modulates the immune system's natural defense mechanisms.
Becker recommends a variety of preventative natural cures, especially when Boulder-area trees like poplar and pine are preparing to pollinate. One option is astragalus, and another is nettles, which, taken a week or two before allergy season, can mitigate symptoms, whether imbibed as capsules, tea or a tincture.
Another natural medicine that fights allergies is NAC, or N-acytelcystiene, which stimulates glutathione, a powerful antioxidant that the body naturally produces, he says. It is good for respiratory symptoms and detoxifies the liver, among other things.
"NAC really works on a lot of levels," Becker says, adding that NAC is used in hospitals for conditions that vary from congestion to Tylenol overdoses.
Becker adds that there are two mushrooms that can be effective for allergies, especially when taken a month to six weeks before the season sets in: Cordyceps and Reishi. When combined, he says, they can lead to a dramatic decrease in allergy symptoms, especially asthma.
When it comes to protecting your kids from allergies, Becker recommends giving children probiotics, at least a month in advance, if possible.
But if it's too late for prevention — if symptoms have already descended — there is a whole different battery of natural weapons.
For those who have a chronic inflammatory condition that surfaces year after year, Becker recommends bromelain, a digestive enzyme that's found in pineapples. It is a powerful anti-inflammatory that must be taken on an empty stomach, he says, ideally twice a day.
Xanthium and magnolia flower are other herbs widely used in Chinese medicine for allergies. Becker says there are a variety of formulas that incorporate the two, including Bi Yan Pian and Magnolia Clear Sinus, which he says is particularly effective.
As for Western herbal medicines, he recommends Eyebright, which is found in numerous formulas and is especially good for watery eyes and sinuses.
Becker also suggests the use of osha, which is not only effective, but local. It can be found in Colorado above elevations of 8,000 feet, he says, and has been used for hundreds of years by Mexicans and Native Americans. Put two or three dropperfulls of the tincture in a small amount of water, Becker advises, and it can work quickly, especially if taken every couple of hours.
He also recommends grape seed extract, tablets that can treat upperrespiratory symptoms within minutes when taken four or five at a time.
Like Mars, Becker advises taking quercetin, which he describes as a "broad-spectrum, dramatic, powerful antihistamine" that can be taken throughout allergy season if it proves effective. He recommends taking three tablets three times a day, and adding bromelain into the mix.
Finally, Becker says two widely known remedies, Echinacea tincture and vitamin C, can also deter allergy symptoms, especially when the latter is ingested at least twice a day in a total of one to four grams.

Prowler, The (US - BD)
Gabe enjoys re-watching one of the best slashers ever made in high definition...
It probably doesn't mean much to most people, but Joseph Zito's The Prowler clearly ranks among the Slasher genre's best films. It doesn't transcend the genre's minimal expectations, and I can't imagine many people comparing it favourably to genuine classics like Halloween or Black Christmas, but it's a better movie on most levels than the majority of the Friday the 13th sequels. The Prowler follows the traditional 'golden era' Slasher plotline (it's almost identical to My Bloody Valentine actually), mixing elements of urban legends with dated teenage sexual politics to create a convoluted series of murder set pieces. The story, what little there is, goes a little something like this: thirty years after a brutal murder the small town of Avalon Bay plans another it's first graduation dance since the incident, only to apparently draw the attention of another masked killer.
The Prowler sets itself apart early on by including a believable period setting. Zito includes a solid eight minutes of well orchestrated mood setting before breaking into the usual making-out and bloody impalement. The rest of the film is unmistakably '80s in setting and clothing, and knowingly low-brow throughout, but the story is treated with relative respect, and the actors are much better than the genre's norm. The characters aren't exactly natural, and are sure to make all the ridiculously stupid choices needed to make the convoluted set pieces happen (in this case most of the stupid choices are made in utter ignorance of the mad killer), but the leads are generally relatable, existing somewhere between utter clichés and realistic people. Zito also isn't afraid to stop the film for a relatively unnecessary, but understated moment of quirky comedy, which (as noted on the director's commentary) might have seemed like a bad idea at the time, but sits among my favourite bits of filler (usually the downfall of low budget, low concept genre films).
Yet, there's no mistaking that The Prowler is an unapologetic exploitation film. Stylistically speaking Zito doesn't even try to ape John Carpenter or Dario Argento, but his gritty, natural look (he mentions knowingly avoiding any pretentious camera work on the included audio commentary track) fits the film like a (black leather) glove, gives it a creepy, vérité vibe, and places it securely in its era in the best sense possible. The whole film has a palpable raw nature that makes everything feel more dangerous than modern equivalent, which often attempt to ape what came naturally to genre filmmakers in the era. Make-up effects designer extraordinaire Tom Savini marks The Prowler among his best work in the Slasher genre, and it's hard to disagree. His work on Zito's Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter is slightly more technically impressive, and The Burning is probably gorier, but the murders here are only topped by Maniac in overall brutality. The climatic head explosion is the most memorable of the film's horrific images, but it's Savini's little touches—a man's eyes rolling back when he's impaled from scalp to jaw, air bubbles pumping from an underwater slit throat—that really sell the more basic slaughter fair.
The Prowler doesn't rank among Blue Underground's more mind-blowing HD achievements, but given the film's age and budget there isn't a whole lot to complain about either. Overall this 1080p transfer looks a lot like the original, uncut DVD release. The only real differences are slightly brighter colours (the greens are pretty lush, and the blood red hues pop pretty well against the duller palette), and a fewer of the DVD's minor compression artefacts. There are a couple brief moments where fine details stick out while comparing the two discs (when the girl is pitchforked in the shower the water that sticks to her face is more noticeable, for example), but the film is so soft overall I just assumes this was Zito's intended look (almost all source lighting is diffused). The contrast levels here are slightly sharper, with deeper blacks, and more clearly separated colours, especially during the pool murder, which is one of the darkest scenes in the entire film. The constant grain isn't so much a problem, and doesn't really increase or decrease based on lighting, but the size of the grain, along with its yellowish colouring, is a bit disappointing, at least based on expectations set by the studio in its past. The dancing noise and relative lack of sharp details remind me visually of 16mm film, but all available on-line material on the film says Zito shot the film 35mm, so there is room for improvement.
Blue Underground hasn't started from scratch with this new DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 audio track, as the general aural placement and sound quality is quite close to the DTS 7.1 track found on their older DVD release (both discs feature the same Dolby Digital EX alternate track). This track is louder, and doesn't show signs of real compression, but I also can't find any reason to not opt for the original mono sound instead. There are a few minor rear channel effects, and the music is pretty well separated into the stereo channels, but flipping between the DTS-HD track and DD Mono reveals very few differences. Blue Underground should be commended for not over-doing the directional effects, or trying to artificially spread the low budget sound design into surround channels, but usually their DTS-HD tracks are ideal for the sake of musical score. Unlike those other releases, Richard Einhorn music doesn't seem to have been mixed with a stereo album release in mind, so it's pretty well centred on both the DTS-HD and DD Mono tracks. There isn't even really a noticeable LFE increase, despite the DTS-HD's discrete .1 channel playing a small role during the occasional gunshot (that final boom is pretty bassy). Dialogue and sound effects are clear, but inconsistent in terms of reverb and cleanliness. I didn't notice any major distortion, even during high volume levels and screams, but some of the vocal tracks show definitive signs of damage.
The extras here match the DVD releases, and start with an audio commentary from director Joseph Zito and effects artist Tom Savini. This isn't among the fullest commentary tracks on record, but the participants are funny, and look back on the film with the perfect balance of nostalgia and self-deprecation. The overall focus is placed on the technical aspects (understandable based on Savani's presence), but there are some amusing anecdotes from the set along the way, and the duo's good natured ribbing at the expense of the genre's standby clichés (which they knowingly admit they default to for most of The Prowler) are adorable. Savini's inability to recall most of the film's plot is also quite funny. The only other extras are a collection of Tom Savini's behind the scenes camcorder footage, which mostly pertains to the filming of the gore effects (10:00, SD), and the original theatrical trailer.
Alright everyone, get out your 'Best American Slasher Movies on Blu-ray' check lists. We now have Black Christmas, Halloween, Friday the 13th, A Nightmare on Elm Street (assuming you count that one), My Bloody Valentine, and The Prowler to check off. That leaves us with Just Before Dawn, Friday the 13th 4 and 6 and The Burning. The sooner we get these we can start working on Giallo films and those European movies that are hard to strictly define as one genre or the other, like Stage Fright and Anthropophagus. Blue Underground doesn't achieve any miracles with this high definition transfer, but it does look better than the studio's DVD release overall. The DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack is a slight improvement over the old compressed DTS track, and extras are identical, including the charming Joseph Zito and Tom Savini commentary track.

I don't really care about spelling much, but would just like to kindly point out that its spelled "Tom Savini". I had the pleasure of meeting the fellow at a 35mm screening of Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. A bit embarrassed to admit I haven't seen this one, but what better time to fix that than now.

Nice review, Gabe.
It's been years since we last watched this, but it might be worth taking another look at it.

Ugh, I think the Savani/Savini thing might be a spell check error. I think I hit 'change all' or something after spelling it wrong the first time.

|Global HD: Bringing in Blu-rays from Around the World
|Thursday, 15 April 2010
Page 1 of 2
For one reason or another, home media production companies seem to operate on separate timetables for their releases. Whether it's because they believe an item wouldn't sell or if the costs are too high compared to the revenue it might generate, they all have their reasons. Even with the support from enthusiasts, a film can sometime swim in an unreleased nebulous for far longer than it should. Case in point being Paramount's recent release of The African Queen, a great John Huston adventure starring Humphrey Bogart and Katherine Hepburn that, though it saw the light of day in the United Kingdom, didn't hit American soil until the idea had been hammered into the studio's minds for many years. In order to obtain a copy of the film before that, enthusiasts either had to endlessly hope for it to hit the airwaves of television, or import a copy from Europe playable only on multi-region decks. Whether it's that scenario or another, all countries simple doesn't see everything on home video that they'd like.With the sluggish but steadfast rise of Blu-ray technology, it's almost as if the reset button's been hit on that situation. Now that we've seen films presented in 24 frames-per-second native movement with the crispness of HD's audiovisual qualities, it's almost like watching these movies again for the first time – and, well, the production companies aren't on the same timetable in releasing either catalogue films or new releases to "replace" the previous release. However, particular films might just be available in this region, or that region, which again has sparked interest in importing Blu-rays from other countries. However, the technological bits and pieces have changed a bit, causing some issues to be absolved and others to be sparked. So let's say someone wants to attain a copy of a particular movie on Blu-ray that isn't available in their designated region. What are the steps, considerations, and problems that can occur? While there are some, it's a bit easier to handle – though it can get costly.
Does Region Coding Affect Importing a Blu-ray?
Just like with standard-definition DVDs, Blu-rays are also coded for specific regions. It's what's called a Digital Rights Management (DRM) arrangement that, essentially, ensures that sales for a particular film go to the designated studio releasing it in a specific area. With DVDs, the region coding was separated into five quadrants, but the lines were redrawn by the Blu-ray Disc Association upon the technology's implementation. Though the general structure has stayed similar on a roundabout level – North American encapsulating one region, Europe and Russia encapsulating others – other countries / continents have been roped into other regions. Probably the largest change is the inclusion of Korea, China, and Japan, formerly annotated as Region 3, into the field of Region A compatibility, thus making them playable in North American players without any (technical) issues.
With DVDs, a few barriers can cause compatibility issues -- region coding being one of them, but also PAL / NTSC signals. With 1080p televisions becoming the standard, that's no longer as large of an issue; beforehand, specific players or compatible televisions had to support PAL's 576p/50hz resolution, but the recognition of 1920x1080p resolution as the standard has engineered Blu-ray technology to a more streamlined degree. No conversion between different broadcast signals is required, and the 4% speedup that can cause an aggravating jerkiness in motion has mostly been eliminated. Oftentimes, it's only the region coding itself that separates the film on a Region B disc from playing on a Region A machine. Naturally, a region-free disc will be able to play the core content without any compatibility issues, all points nominal with full-HD resolution. If the resolution skips a beat, say to an interlaced 50hz signal (1080i50), then we've reverted back to old, problematic issues.
Therein rests a problem: how can somebody know whether a release is actually region-free or region-locked, or whether it's assuredly a full-resolution image? Those are questions that'll need answering before placing an order, because companies like Amazon will not issue refunds on the basis of incompatibility across regions. The best way to discover this info comes in working through some elbow grease and asking peers. One website does a great job of compiling the region status of specific discs, Blu-ray Region Codes (http://www.blurayregioncodes.com/ ), but even that site relies largely on the reports from individual success and failures. Sometimes it requires a shot in the dark by eager importers to build information about a release. Among a community of home theater enthusiasts, it's always encouraged to share both positive and negative experiences with importing.

fermenter cork poped off overnight
What went wrong? Was this supposed to happen? Should I throw it out? What do I do now?

fermenter cork poped off overnight
I have fermenting IPA and on the second day in the carboy the rubber cork and blow hose tipped out of the carboy. I replaced the cork and blow hose on the carboy. Is there anything else I need to do?

Why not relax and have a homebrew? Seriously, I had the same issue the last time I brewed. I found the rubber cork 2 weeks later. I just put a new one next morning. That was 6 months ago and beer still not showing any sign of infection. Maybe I was lucky, but I don't think anything else can be done. If fermentation was started and already fully active, I guess you should be ok.

Just sanatize the cork. The positive preasure in the carboy (because of fermentation) should keep you safe.

Redfield Revenge = Big Problem
I tried my new Redfield Revenge 6-18x44 on my .243 today. I have had a big problem getting the vertical adjustment any where near the target. I use a homemade target printed on a letter sized card.
At the end of trying, I had the scope adjustment wound all the way up, aiming the fat part of the lower post level with the top of the card and the bullet was striking 1" up from the bottom of the target.
It's almost like having ultrahigh rings on the rear and std height on the front. Is there a major adjustment to compensate for this error or have I got a piece of junk?

I'd start by verifying you have the correct bases for your rifle.
Next question,what kind of rifle is it?Specifically,is it a sporterized milsurp or any other vintage rifle that may show tolerance variation at the rear bridge in particular.?(like stripper clip boss grinding).
Did you buy quality rings/mounts?Do they seem to sit down and fit line to line?
Really,putting on a scope seems so simple,and sometimes it is,but there are a lot of ways to get it wrong.
Bases tight on the rifleset the lower half of the rings on.No burrs,good clean fitup.Snug them up .Then set the scope tube in.Anything but a perfect drop in means lapping the rings.When you put the caps on ,use something,a dime,a credit card,etc as a gage to get the same gap between the upper and lower all around,then go around and tighten all the screws about 1/8 turn at a time till you just get some friction.Square up the reticle and set eye relief.Tighten like you were torquing a cylinder head.Not to crazy on the torque,its a thin aluminum tube.
Now,pull the bolt out.Sandbag the rifle.A buddy can help here.Look through the bore at an aiming point about 40 yds out.Have your buddy hold the bore on target while you twist knobs to get the crosshairs on target..
Use a bigger target,and shoot zero right on at 40 yds or so.You should be able to see your bullet holes in the scope.When you have that,back the target to 100 yds.
If you still have the problem,talk to your gunsmith.It may be you need your bases machined,or shimmed,etc.Likely you will need your rings lapped.Height problems translate to ring misalignment.Bending your scope tightening the rings is bad.
I don't use them,but some solve this problem with Burris Posi-line rings.They have eccentric sleeves that will solve your problem,likely.
You might check to see you do not have a sling swivel screw bearing on the barrel.

At one time I had a rifle, can't recall the brand or model now, that had different height bases for the front and rear. Not a problem except the mounting holes location allowed them to fit in either position. Of course on the first try I had them reversed from what they should have been and I don't remember if I was shooting the ground or hitting the sky with it, but it was one or the other. Reversed the mounts and all was fixed, gun shot and the bullet hit where the crosshairs were!!!
Mayby check to see if that may be part of your problem?

I have had this M17 setup for some time now. I had a 7x Kahles on it for 20+ years but decided to go to a higher magnification. As nothing changed i think it must be a scope error.
To check the rings I measured from the bottom of the scope tube to top of base and got .250" at either ends.

Pardon me for not being familiar with an M-17.
Are we talking about a 1917 Enfield?
If so,part of the project was removing the sight ears and reshaping the rear bridge.
All this is subject to whatever variables the gunsmith who did the work created.
I will assume you do not have access to a nice granit surface plate ,a height gage,etc,thats ok.
Lets call the bottom of the receiver,the flat part that the mag box engages,the best datum plane we have.Maybe with calipers or a mic,you can get between the feed rails and get a measurement from the flat bottom of the receiver over the top of the scope base.You may need to use a pin or a little flat piece of steel for a bridge over the feed rails.What the number is does not matter,just compare the front and rear.They should be the same,or very close.
A quick,head math estimate,if you have 4 in ring spacing,that is 3 a foot,times 300 ft is a multiplier of error of about 900,to make it easy,lets call it a multiplier of 1000.So,.001(for this mental experiment) error in height would translate to 1 in at 100 yds,approx.I do not know how much scope adjustment you have,but lets call it 40 MOA,or 20 MOA from center,not enough,OK.That would mean an error of about .020 plus or minus in the height between front and rear bases.(based on all of my inaccurate assumptions) That will give you some idea what to look for.
If this is a fine old 1917 enfield sporter,I suggest the handcrafted part of it is something the scope base companies just can't hit right every time,it varies.
If your measurement suggests you have a problem,it may take the handcrafted skill to make it right.
What is really hard on a scope,if the front ring and the rear ring are not in perfect alignment,the thin aluminum scope tube distorts when you tighten the rings.
That is real bad on the close tolerance fits and optical alignments,plus the superglue or sealants they use to hold them together.("pop",oops)
Good luck!

Just one more thought if you are still having problems with the scope.
Take it off and put it on another rifle altogether and sight in with that rifle.
If it sights in on another rifle without any problems the issue will be 99% of the time with the first rifle and or scope bases/rings.
If it turns out to be the scope, I think that getting factory service or replacement will be no problem. I have heard good things about the resurrected Redfield brand of scopes.

I sent the scope and rifle to the gunsmith I got the scope from and told them to sort the problem out.
They were reluctant to blame the scope and said the Kahles probably had another 12" of internal adjustment. What a load of "%^&*"
I still haven't heard back from the shop yet. I will be back with the results.

The Bruins (24-16, 11-6 A-Sun) scored four runs in the final three innings to break open a 4-4 game, and reliever Brandon Paetznick retired 15 of 16 batters he faced, including 14 straight to end the game, as Belmont clinched the series, sending the Bucs to their second consecutive A-Sun series defeat.
Belmont took a 2-0 lead in the second inning on Brandon McCall's two-run home run to left field, a towering blast that just stayed fair, wrapping around the foul pole in the left field corner.
The Bucs (24-18, 10-7 A-Sun) cut the lead in half in the third on senior Justin Aughey's (
After two more Bruin runs in the bottom of the third, Allen's fourth inning RBI single scored freshman Tanner Moore (Chattanooga, Tenn.) who led off the frame with his 11th double of the season. Freshman Justin Tramble's (
A fifth inning double steal with runners at the corners brought home junior Anthony Russell (Waldorf, Md.), and tied the game at four, but Paetznick retired the final 13 batters afterwards.
Paetznick struck out four and allowed just one hit in five innings of relief work for Bruin starter Josh Moffitt, improving to 2-1 on the season. Freshman starter Todd Caldwell (
The Bucs will try to salvage the weekend and snap their longest losing streak in two years in the series finale Sunday afternoon at Shelby Park. First pitch is scheduled for 2 p.m. eastern time.

Listing of the IET boards and committees and their terms of reference.
The IET is governed by an elected Board of Trustees. The terms of reference of the Board of Trustees are in the IET Bye-laws. Reporting to the Board are:
The activities of the IET are managed by three Main Boards. These are:
These are requirements for the members of Boards and Committees and specific requirements for Council and each Main Board. The constitution of the boards is designed to ensure that, collectively, the members of the board have the full range of knowledge and skills required.
Reporting to the Knowledge Services Board is a Communities Resourcing Committee, to which report six communities committees:
Each board and committee operates under specific terms of reference and members uphold high standards of personal behaviour, both individually and in their collective responsibility, to ensure good corporate governance of the IET. It is expected that any conflicts of interest, if they arise, are declared. Nothing in the IET's procedures precludes a member from questioning any aspect of the IET's governance, bringing forward any issue for debate, or stating his view in a personal capacity.
The normal period of service for an elected or appointed member of any board or committee is three years. For appointed members, the period of service on a board or committee cannot be extended beyond a maximum of six years. It is customary for one third of the members of a board or committee to retire each year, to ensure a regular turnover. The president is ex officio a member of all boards and committees.
