The path to resource adequacy and low-carbon generation in the Texas electric power market will likely require the co-development and integration of both natural gas and renewable energy resources for years to come, according to a new report from The Brattle Group prepared for the Texas Clean Energy Coalition (TCEC).
The report analyzes the short- and long-term relationship between natural gas and renewable resources in the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) electricity market, which covers 85% of the state's electric load.
"Low-priced natural gas and clean renewable resources are complementary, not competing, resources to displace other fuels over the long term. Coordinated development of both will lead to a win-win for Texas and the environment," former state Sen. Kip Averitt and TCEC chairman said.
According to the report, wind and solar power are inexpensive to dispatch because they have no fuel cost. In comparison, natural-gas-fired generation is more expensive to dispatch even at very low $4/MMBTU gas prices, the report adds.
"As a consequence, once wind and solar power is built, renewable resources are always cheaper to dispatch, and will be chosen to sell all their power whenever the wind blows or the sun shines regardless of the current price of gas," Averitt said.
However, when utility planners must build new electric plants, the report says renewables are not necessarily the lowest-cost resource because of their higher upfront capital costs. Brattle principal Peter Fox-Penner, a co-author of the study, noted blending lower-cost gas generation with the higher costs of new renewables lowers the total rate impact on consumers.
The report also cites a number of technical reasons why gas and renewables complement each other, primarily the ability of natural gas to smooth the intermittent output of wind resources. Ninety-six percent of Texas' renewable capacity comes from wind resources whose output is uncontrollable and not well matched with the time pattern of ERCOT's load, the report says.

Grow the bush, G! Please, that is.
So disappointing. A 10 for Genevieve. A 1 for the excessive close-ups and cropping.
Genevieve Gandi is without doubt the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. My God,, that beautiful face and that smoking hot body are to die for. Her smile is enough to melt hearts.
Call the fire department - I am on fire! 10+++. Excellent photography.
Lost me when she turned on the water.
You only lost it from #87 thats not to bad. 8)
Ohhhhhhh, myyyyyyyy, goodnesssssssss, Genevieve and Matiss combine for an absolute wonder of a bath set. So flirtatious, so coquettish, so beautiful, shiny and wet. Seems like the two of them were in the mood to show off her magnificent buttocks today, and that puts me in a very good mood. OOOF after OOOF after OOOF.
Yes I believe that a good few of us men and woman loved those superb divine and magnificent buttocks today, hooray it certainly is. 8)
OMG! Long hair, beautiful face, kissable lips, pretty smile, amazing breasts, gorgeous body, a legendary butt and a wonderful, engaging personality. Genevieve is perfect inside in and out.
What I'd give to see her in person just once and speak to her if only just for a moment. (I would likely pass out right after but when i wake up, I'd be the happiest guy on the planet. ^.^) I totally envy Matiss...whom I hope doesn't take one moment in her presence for granted.
Thank you, Genevieve and Matiss, for this amazing set. You two really make an incredible team. Looking forward to your next masterpiece!
Genevieve is a goddess.
The more you look at the set, the more gems you find to support that statement.
Hammer hard photos of an absolutely exciting horny woman. Genevieve is always an erotic revelation. This white, pure and delicate body is a sensation.
All body parts of Genevieve are masterpieces. Genevieve is a masterpiece of nature. And we can admire her.
The cute soft natural pendulous breasts are as appealing as the wet pussy with the full pink labia.
The highlight of the day are the close-ups of the full moon. This round, sensationally shaped butt, the little smooth anus and the plump pussy. With these many good butt-shots, it is also not surprising that my BBP proposal concerns one of these photos (# 45 to # 55). My BBP is today # 54. But also # 49 is absolutely sexy.
Best photo set today!
Ah my friend I should have gone with my heart, I nominated elsewhere today for my BBP . But my soul was filled with joy on seeing Genevieve in so many perfect rear views. For she has such perfect shape, her hips produce magical curves, and thanks to Matiss who has reproduced them in so many views. Also I adore warm wet flesh, but I know many dislike the bath and shower, so I also love #126 for this very reason and a divine close up of her anus with water cascading over her bottom. But there has to be a winner so #54 it is . I also agree this is the finest set of the day. 8)
BBP of May 10th is: Genevieve / # 54!
Mmm, yes a beautiful, bountiful bottommmmmm.
Yes Met. What do you think, best BBP (Best-Butt-Photo) is today # 54 of Genevieve? Or do you have other suggestions?

The start of the International Young Brothers' Assembly (IYBA) was heralded by a calm and quiet morning. A week ago, plane arrivals and hectic schedules dictated the pace – today was different. Already settled in De La Salle Dasmarinas (DLSU-D), the participants arrived in small groups – some walked, others were shuttled – at the DLSU-D Retreat and Conference Center (RCC) veranda.
The goal of the IYBA is to present a concrete message of the Young Brothers for 45th General Assembly. Aside from discussions, the IYBA also created a Listening Team to assist in this; the team's goal is to collect the reflections of the Young Brothers, articulating the spirit of the IYBA to further express the message of the young Brothers.
Under this vision, the brothers gathered for the opening ceremony at the RCC Corporate Hall. Each of the sector representatives introduced themselves by stating what they can contribute to the assembly in the coming days. The groups displayed their creativity in introducing themselves, their culture, and their identity. Despite the language barrier, the Brothers were able to communicate via the translators.
Directly after their introductions, the Brothers had their first prayer together. Everyone lighted a candle – a representation of the gift that they bring to the assembly – and headed for the chapel. This first prayer set the tone for the coming days, guided by the following verse:
"I came so that they may have life and have it more abundantly." (John 10,10)
This passage defines the IYBA theme. Through this, the gathering aims to not only receive life, but to increase it by living the mission with creativity, zeal, solidarity and faith.
After their lunch, the Brothers spent their afternoon touring the two campuses, De La Salle Dasmarinas (DLSU-D) and De La Salle Health Sciences Institute (DLS-HSI).
The tour was followed by a mass at The Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary in DLSU-D, presided by Fr. Mark Reyes, the University Chaplain. But prior to the mass proper, the Brother Visitor of the Lasallian East Asia District, Br. Edmundo Fernandez FSC, gave the welcoming remarks, quoting a passage from Circular 466. This was followed by a video showcasing the Philippines' riches – including a few Filipino Brothers – and, by the time it ended, received applause from the delegates.
At the end of the mass, Brother Superior General, Br. Alvaro Rodriguez Echeverria FSC delivered his message to the young Brothers, imploring them to, "…go out because our mission is to be instruments of salvation, especially to the poor." His call to action states that, "we Brothers cannot be absent and you young Brothers are called to be the accelerator not the brake."
After, the Brothers headed to Ugnayang La Salle for their welcoming dinner, hosted by DLSU-D. The young Brothers were treated to a Filipiniana Night, highlighting different cultural aspects of the Philippines.
The program started with a parade of colors, hosting a flag from each of the participants' home nation. This was followed by the welcoming message of Br. Gus Boquer FSC, EdD, President and Chancellor of DLSU-D and DLSHSI.
Before dinner, the DLSU-D Filipiniana Dance Company displayed the La Jota, the Binasuan, and the Subli – traditional Filipino dances. The DLSU-D Chorale and DLSHSI Saringhimig then serenaded the participants, under the direction of Mr. Nasser Salcedo.
After the Brothers' meal, the night was capped off with the return of the DLSU-D Filipiniana Dance Company. One of their last performances was the Tinikling, a dance that requires the dancers to step in and out of two bamboo poles. Several Brothers were invited to dance and they did not disappoint – an indication of things to come for the IYBA.


text: The Metal Element The Frequency of Autumn This is my fifth article discussing elements, and I just want to say that as a practitioner who studies and witnesses these elements in every facet of life, I find myself living by a certain degree of diligence around how I do things. I try to balance activities and daily routines by incorporating gifts of different elements. It almost feels like learning to speak a whole new language, and suddenly all these different frequencies around me make sense. Of course, 26 Jun

"Mater Admirabilis is a fresco depicting the Virgin Mary, at the Trinità dei Monti, a church in Rome. It was painted by a young French girl, Pauline Perdrau, and has been associated with several miracles.
Legend has it Pauline had been asked by the nuns at Trinità dei Monti to paint a mural of the Blessed Mother. After weeks of painting, Pauline finally finished her work. When the Mother Superior saw it, she said the colors were too bright and bold and immediately covered it with a large piece of fabric. Years later, Pope Pius IX was visiting the church and questioned what was behind the drape. The Mother Superior tried to distract the Pope from it, but he demanded to see it. When he drew back the fabric, it revealed the painting Pauline had created years before. The colors had faded and blended together to create a softer image than the years before. The Pope declared her Mater Admirabilis, mother most admirable. He told the Mother Superior to never cover this beautiful piece of work again."

Many of us are on the road this summer, heading to hiking trails, taking road trips with our families, or driving our kids to sleep away camp. It can be tempting to stop in for fast food when hunger strikes, but how can you select menu items that are good for you and your family?
We all stop at side-of-the-road restaurants every now and then. But instead of beating ourselves up about being perfect when we feed our families, let's simply aim for progress.
Making Better Fast Food Choices
- There are lots of sizing options available at fast food restaurants, but the average person doesn't need to eat anything more than the small or regular sized items
- Beware of common up-selling phrases, such as "want fries with that?" or "can I super-size your order?" While these might seem like a good deal for your wallet, they are NOT a good deal for your waistline.
- If saving money is your objective, share a larger order with one or two other people.
- By going large on your order, you can increase the calorie count of your order by over 500 calories, not to mention extra fat, cholesterol and sodium.
- Sodas are empty calories, opt for a calorie-free beverage instead
- By buying a McChicken Sandwich instead of a Big Mac, you can save 190 calories and 14 grams of fat
- By downsizing your coffee order and opting for skim milk instead of whole milk, you can save over 200 calories and 18 grams of fat
- While tuna sandwiches may seem healthy, the extra mayo they add can contribute a surprisingly high number of calories. At Subway, opt for the 6-inch turkey breast sandwich instead, saving you 250 calories and 26.5 grams of fat! Yikes.
Avoid Buying Snacks on the Road
If you don't want to be stuck with the snacking options available at the gas station, it helps to think ahead. I love Aimee's suggestions for delicious snacks you can make at home, and bring with you, putting you in the driver's seat when it comes to the ingredients you are feeding your family on the road.

Kurt Harding | Boerne TX | 11/21/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)
"I was a little hesitant at first about buying John Mayall: Live From Austin Texas since my experience with the releases from the archives of the famed Austin City Limits hasn't always been entirely positive. But the opportunity arose to buy this at a very good price, so I took the plunge.
Though the DVD started shakily with a tentative rendition of I Want To Go, by the time the band tore into Maydell, it was plain that I was in for a treat. By the time it got to I'm A Sucker For Love, the group had reached full stride. Coco Montoya is never better than when he plays with Mayall and on "Sucker" launches a dazzling guitar attack in counterpoint to Mayall's keyboard bravado. They genuinely appear to be enjoying every minute of the concert! In addition, Joe Yuele proves his mettle on the drums and it soon becomes apparent why Mayall has kept him around for so long.
Mayall's oeuvre is huge and had I been the one to choose the songs for him to perform I would have chosen mostly different ones. But fans have to live with what he has chosen and for the most part, he makes the best of his choices. In addition to the two songs previously mentioned, my favorites here are Nature's Disappearing, I Could Cry, and Mail Order Mystics, that last being one of Mayall's trademark slaps at some of the cultural sillinesses of the "love" generation.
Overall, Live From Austin Texas offers more great moments from a career that has had far more than its share of them. Despite its brevity and a couple of weak cuts, this is a DVD that deserves a proud place in any blues fan's music library.
Mayall Just A Bandleader?
Stuart S. Lawler | Orange, VA USA | 11/16/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)
"For all of those critics who have constantly chastised John Mayall for being known as just a bandleader and not a capable musician you definitely need to check this DVD out. I for one have never subscribed to this theory and having seen him in concert many times I know the man can play and he always acquits himself well. On "Live From Austin " he plays superb keyboards, scorching rythmn guitar, and he absolutley torches the harmonica on the last tune, "Mail Order Mystics", which also features David Grissom on lead guitar. His vocals are especially strong on this outing too. Coco Montoya is at his usual best on this DVD to boot. Just give it a listen and you will realize that John Mayall is a very serious and talented musician....oh yes, and by the way, he also just happens to be a bandleader too."

Technology Travels
- Technology Travels
- My Traveling Companions
Having just returned from DEMO 2006, held in Phoenix this year, I'm stoked on new technology. Some of the new products I saw there were entertaining, some practical, a few were electrifying, and one was delicious. The delicious one was MooBella, a box the size of a soda machine that mixed up a fresh cup of ice cream, with any of 11 different flavors and a handful of different toppings, in less than a minute. It's in beta test now; the machines could be ubiquitous in a year or two.
Too many of the products, however, left me with a sense of déjà vu. Even some of the more impressive ones, like Riya, were as much clever mash-ups of existing technologies as breakthroughs. Riya is face- and word-recognition software that helps you tag your photographs by who's in them and where they were shot. It appears that its recognition code is finely honed, so it reads billboards, placards, and street signs to help you find and categorize your photos. Riya can go one step beyond your existing photo organizer softwareand anything that can make sense out of the digital shoebox that your hard drive has become is welcome. But the good guys were spotting the bad guys with face recognition software back at Super Bowl XXXV, so chalk one up for progress, not revolution.
New search engines were everywhereno surprise, considering Google's stock price and Yahoo!'s resurgence. As a group, I thought they were rather overspecialized. And the big search companies generally have the technology to do all that any successful upstart might do (and more), or they can just acquire the fledgling. But maybe that's the idea.
I always guess wrong about community applications, and I'm always amazed when they take off. I can't figure out why I'd want a site that tells me what my buddies are watching on TV, but that's what eVoke TV does. Bet against me. History is on your side.
When it comes to saving money, though, I get it right. Eqo (pronounced "echo") extends your Skype phone to your cell phone, bringing big potential savings over roaming charges. Again, Eqo has a trendy community angle, "Take your buddies with you," but the real message here is "Save a bundle." You may need a different calling plan that can handle the background data traffic, though. Check it out.
You've probably read about Pleo, the cuter-than-cute robotic dinosaur from the inventor of the Furby. Do I need one? No. Do I want one? Oh, yeah. And I both need and want an iGuitar, a fully analog and digital guitar with USB output. It plugs right into music recording programs, and it's a really nice electric guitar in its own right. I mean no disservice to the 60 or so products that I haven't mentioned, but let's move on.Continue reading...

New Track – Jungle Fever
Audiojungle just added another track of mine to their library. This track is strange in a nice way, as it combines an arpeggiated squelchy sound which kind of reminds me of the Novachord with analog loFi percussion and a brassy bass line.

Sittin' at home with my d– no, wait; I was sitting at home, but I was watching House Hunters International. I don't remember where they were- Sweden I think- anyway this young couple picked out the house they wanted and made an offer, but then some other fella out bid them and took the house right out from under their feet… or did he? Turns out, Out Bidder (whom I shall refer to as "OB" henceforth) is allergic to the cats that live in the house (yep), so the young house hunting couple were able to move into their dream home after all. A number of twists in a show that usually includes none.
Huh? Why didn't OB notice the cats when he was checkin' the place out? Were they hiding in the laundry? Shouldn't the cats -who, evidently, are the actual owners of the house- be party to any negotiations? Or at least be a negotiable item, like window treatments? Will they pay rent? And to the previous owners: Why didn't you bring your cats with you? In my head, this is what went down:
Previous Owners: We're moving.
Cats: What? Why? (sniffle sniffle)
PO: I got a new job.
Cats, now sobbing: This is our home! We have friends here! You ruin everything! rrraaaawrrr…. We're staying!
PO: I'll wrap you in this towel and you can ride on my lap in the car.
Cats: NO! hissssssss! raaaaar!
PO: Fine. Bye.

When I published Tasty Twists on the Classic Complete-Protein Meal: Rice and Beans 5 Ways earlier this summer, I let you in on my biggest weekday-dinner secret.
With just one core 5-ingredient recipe and a couple of spices, you get to parade around your kitchen like an international epicurean, all the while eating like an athlete.
The response to those five quick, easy, and cheap meals was wonderful—you loved that they were quick, easy and cheap. And I was totally touched when months later, lots of you wrote in after the Vegan Starbucks Petite Lentil Scones post to tell me that the beans and rice variations are still part of your regular meal rotation.
So today I'm back (dare I say by popular demand?) with another flavorful complete protein recipe, this one perhaps the most exciting of all: Hawaiian beans and rice.
Everyday Flavors To Make You Say Mahalo
Luckily for me, beans and rice is not a static concept—the meal is constantly changing, based on where in the world you are, what season is here, and even what's leftover in the fridge.
The idea for the 5-ingredient Hawaiian variation starts with island-drenched color: magenta cabbage, golden pineapple, lush-green spinach, and shiny black beans. Okay, so maybe I've never been to Hawaii, but I've definitely had Hawaiian pizza before. And just like it does in my Homemade Vegan Bacon, the smoked paprika in this recipe does a nice job of evoking the flavors of smoked ham.
A quick pan-fry with the pineapple rings gets all that luau flavor without the fuss of firing up the grill. And if you want the whole tropical experience, be sure to try the variation with toasted coconut folded into the rice. It's divine!
I hope that just as many of you who tried the other beans and rice recipes give this one a whirl too. When you do, be sure to let me know what you think!
Basic Beans and Rice Recipe
- 1 cup dry brown rice
- 1 can drained and rinsed beans, or 2 cups cooked
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
Cook the brown rice in a rice steamer or follow the directions here. Heat up the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat and fry the onion for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and fry for an additional 5 minutes. Stir in the beans and heat through. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with rice.
Hawaiian Beans and Rice
You'll need one batch of the basic recipe above, as well as:
- 2 cups chopped red cabbage (about quarter of a head)
- 2 cups fresh baby spinach
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 can sliced pineapple, juice reserved
Stir the red cabbage, 1/2 cup pineapple juice, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and smoked paprika into the bean and onion mixture. Cook for 5 minutes, until cabbage is cooked but still crunchy. Stir in spinach and cook for 2 more minutes, until slightly wilted. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Meanwhile, spray a frying pan with nonstick cooking spray and heat on medium high. Lay pineapple rings in pan, and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce. Fry for 2 minutes per side, until nice and charred. Serve on top of beans and rice.
Feeling fancy? Add a chopped red bell pepper in with the cabbage, sprinkle beans with a minced jalapeño pepper, and fold 1/2 cup of toasted coconut into cooked rice.

So, I stamped the Flourish with Dusty Concord and then I stamped it again with Versamark and embossed with the clear EP. I used my distress inks and the blending tool for the background. I added the paper ribbon, which I used the Perfect Pearls on. Inked the mini scrolls with Versamark and used the Black Sparkle EP on them and then I did the key with the Black Soot and the Dusty Concord EP and adhered them all to the front. I cut the banner from the Glossy White CST, leaving the CST in the die, then I used the Blending Tool with the Milled Lavender. Stamped my sentiment with the StazOn and pop dotted it on my card. Added the rhinestone to the key and that's it for this card, so...........until next time!!! Have a great week!!!

Band name: Summer Girlfriends
Sound: This up-and-coming, pizza-obsessed group (seriously, check out the number of pizza mentions on its Facebook page!) laces its catchy garage-rock output with '60s girl-group melodies and a welcome dose of surf-rock guitar. Think Best Coast if frontwoman Bethany Cosentino ditched her pot stash and cat for a black leather jacket and ample reverb.
Need to know: The quintet recently finished in fourth place in an online battle-of-the-bands competition put together by an apparel company--more than respectable considering over 800 acts entered the national contest. Even better? The group is expected to release its debut album, "Shockwaves," this May on local label Addenda Records.
Interviewed: Caitlin Kerr, 28, Humboldt Park
Is it true the band started as a New Year's resolution?
Yeah! We all talked about it, then Nikita, our guitar player, brought it up a few days after New Year's last year and was like, "Let's stop talking about [forming a band] and just do it already."
Congrats on being the first people to ever keep a resolution then.
[Laughs] I know! We're trying to stick to it each year.
How would you describe the new album's sound to someone who isn't familiar with the band?
It's got a lot of surf-y undertones, just with guitars and the way we play around with the music. We try to keep it simple. It's just drums, guitar, bass, vocals and a few other instruments. It's danceable music.
Growing up in the Midwest (Kerr was born and raised in St. Louis and moved to Chicago a shade over a decade ago), have you ever actually been surfing?
I have not. I actually have a fear of sharks, so I don't know if I'll ever do it. But I've been places where you could potentially do it.
How do you develop a fear of sharks growing up land-locked?
I don't know. They just scare me. Our family would go down to the Gulf Shores every year. I don't have many fears, but they're one of them.
You were initially called Canadian Girlfriends but had to change it because the name was too close to another local band (My Canadian Girlfriend), right?
Yes, we were! But it's all good. Everything is fine. It happens to many bands, but we just rolled with the punches and changed our name. Luckily that's all in the past now.
And you put together a Facebook poll to help determine your new name?
Yeah, I mean, because naming a band is one of the hardest things to do. It's just such an awkward experience--especially when you have multiple people and every opinion counts. We just came up with a few names we thought might work and had people vote. The music's for the people, so I have no problem having others be a part of it. Even if it's just having them name our band.
What were some of the runners-up?
I'm not sure. I think Camp Girlfriends was one. When you're growing up your first crush is usually over the summer, or whatever, and we were trying to keep that vibe.
So who was your first celebrity crush?
(Laughs) Oh my god! I think maybe Jonathan Taylor Thomas from "Home Improvement." I think? I guess? I mean, he's the one who popped into my head. You're going to embarrass me, aren't you? It's OK.
Your set opening for the Coathangers at Panchos last summer ended with a trip to the emergency room. Is that the only time the band has bled in the name of rock and roll?
I think so. We're not too aggressive onstage--at least not yet. Nicole tripped over an amp or something and caught her earring and it ripped her ear. So she had to go. It was bad! It was at the end of the night, so everybody was ready to load into the van and get back to the practice space, and she had to go to the hospital and get that all sewn up and taken care of. It was our first real rock and roll moment!
"Shockwaves" is the both the title of the album and its first single. Where do you think the new record would fall on the Richter scale?
What's the numbering for the Richter scale? To ten? Let's say a five (laughs). It's earth-shattering.
