Peterson, Scherer to play for City title
Published 7:18 pm, Saturday, August 6, 2011
Brian Scherer's and Jon Mark Peterson's paths back to Midland this year to play in the Midland Men's City Championship has seen their share of trials and tribulations.
Scherer hasn't played in the tournament in more than three years as he was concentrating on his college career at Texas Tech.
His career for the Red Raiders, though, came to an abrupt halt in April when he was suspended for his senior year. He will graduate from Tech in December but will not play his final season.
Meanwhile, fellow Lee grad Peterson is returning to the Permian Basin after playing golf at Northern Colorado the last few years and will attend UTPB intent on one day becoming a professional.
So needless to say, these two were just happy to be playing golf and enjoying it this weekend at the city tournament, and making things even better for the pair is that they will battle for the title in today's final round.
Scherer carded a 5-under 65 on Hogan Park's Quail Course today, and Peterson carded another 66 and both are at 132 for the tournament and are tied for the lead, five strokes ahead of their nearest competitor.
Fellow Lee grad Ryan Fioretti is third after shooting a 69 on Saturday and is at 137, and Chris Hubbard is fourth after a 73 and at 140 overall in the tournament.
"It was just back and forth all day where I'd make a birdie and he'd make a birdie, and all day we were steady," Peterson said. "Getting to know Scherer over the years ... he's one of my closest friends and it's easy to play with friends."
Scherer put together a bogey-free round on Saturday on the shorter Quail Course where he said he took a simple game plan onto the course that paid off.
Meanwhile, Peterson said his ball placement was as good as it's been all year for him.
"I think I only hit three or four drivers all day," Scherer said. "I let my short game make the birdies, and I made a lot of up and downs and made some good putts."
Scherer said his game has improved over the last few months after his suspension because "I stopped worrying about Tech." He now will focus on returning to Tech this semester to finish his degree and work on trying to become a professional after what he said has been a less than fun experience playing golf for the Red Raiders.
"I got in a little trouble this year, and I made some bad decisions where I gambled on college basketball," Scherer said. "The consequences were they suspended me for my senior season. But in the long run, I don't think that's going to mean very much to me. I never had a very good time at Tech. It's really not that big of a loss for me.
"Not worrying about Tech has done a lot for my game."
Peterson said his return to the Permian Basin after playing at Northern Colorado came after what he described as "problems with the coach." And much like Scherer, Peterson said he is more relaxed playing golf these days and he said it's showed in his game.
He will work to finish his education at UTPB over the next year and half, and at the same time try to work on his game to also one day become a professional.
"It's like a weight is lifted off your shoulders because you don't have to worry about qualifying, and if you qualify you still may not go," Peterson said. "It's just kind of one of those deals that it's just easier to relax and play. At the end of the day, the people out here aren't going to look at you any different."
With all of that behind the two players, and much different futures ahead of them, the pair will now focus on winning their first city championship, and for both players they relish the opportunity to have a chance to win.
"The final group on the last day is where every golfer wants to be," Scherer said.

Baldness and Dandruff
There are many varieties of baldness, and there are many causes for each variety. In all cases of baldness or incipient baldness, whether or not accompanied by a disorder of the scalp such as an eczema or severe dandruff, the sensible thing to do is to consult a skin specialist. In most instances of baldness, there is usually no noticeable disorder of the skin, or at the most some dandruff. In most cases, also, there is no internal disorder that can be found to account for the ordinary type of male baldness. A hereditary or constitutional factor is usually responsible. As a rule, nothing can be done to cure this most prevalent variety. The patient must resign himself to baldness or a toupee.
Baldness has been attributed to dandruff, and it is true that in some cases cure of the dandruff has apparently halted the spreading baldness. This is probably due to the fact that both the dandruff and the baldness are due to an underlying unknown condition. If the dandruff is severe it is imperative to visit a skin specialist, since the dandruff itself may be a symptom of disease. Contrary to the "scientific" full-page announcements of Listerine, the cause of dandruff is not a germ by the name of Pityrosporum Ovale, and dandruff is not cured by Listerine.
Dandruff may be due to what usually looks like excessive dryness of the scalp. It may also occur with very oily scalps. Dry scalps should be shampooed about once a week and a lotion of one part of castor oil in three parts of pure alcohol may be rubbed in after the shampoo. The scalp should be massaged with the fingertips for five minutes every morning and evening, and brushed vigorously after the massage. Brushing is more important than massage. If the hair is oily, shampoo the hair with Tincture of Green Soap, U.S.P., about twice weekly. If the tincture irritates the scalp, a blander shampoo or a soapless shampoo should be used. A bland tar soap such as Almay's Tar Shampoo or Packer's Tar Shampoo may be very helpful for the control of mild cases of dandruff, especially those associated with oily scalps.
If the dandruff does not diminish with better shampoo habits, the following formula, which can be prepared by any pharmacist, may be tried:
Resorcinol, 2 drams (If hair is blond, resorcinol mono-acetate should be substituted to avoid discoloration, but even this may produce some darkening.)
Betanaphthol, 10 grains
Olive oil, 3 drams
Ethyl alcohol (70%), 8 ounces (Rubbing alcohol will do.)
Apply each morning and night for at least one month, thoroughly moistening the scalp and rubbing in with finger-tips. (Take care not to get the lotion in the eyes.) Do not be alarmed if a temporary increase in falling hair results. If the treatment proves too drying to the hair, or irritating to the scalp, add more olive oil to the lotion.
As already stated, there are many types and many causes of baldness, and a specialist should be consulted to make certain that the falling of the hair is not due to some disease. The following list is based on ratings made by CU in 1939.
Xervac (Crosley Radio Corp.). Operates on the theory that continued application of alternate vacuum and pressure will so stimulate the blood vessels of the scalp that new hair will grow. In a recent report, the American Medical Association states that this machine is "Not Acceptable," since the claims made for it have not been substantiated by experimental evidence.
Cel-O-Ray (Cel-O-Ray Institute). Infra-red headgear, operating on the theory that heat waves will cure baldness. Worthless.
The Thomas'. Grossly overpriced "system" with "scientific" pre-tensions. Worthless.
Ultrasol (Post Institute). Said to contain pituitary gland extract. Worthless.
Tarola (Paula). Cited by Federal Trade Commission for false advertising.
Harper Method Tonique (Martha Matilda Harper). Unjustified advertising claims.
Pro-Ker (Pro-Ker Laboratories). Cited by Federal Trade Commission for false advertising claims.
Japanese Oil (National Remedy Co.). Unjustified advertising claims.
Vitalis (Bristol Myers Co.). Cited by FTC for false advertising. Glover's Imperial Sareoptic Mange Medicine (H. Clay Glover Co.). Cited by FTC for false advertising.
Danderine. Dandruff-dissolving claims unwarranted.
Dander-Off. Contained arsenic.
Glover's Imperial Mange Medicine. Contained creosote. Herpicide. Contained carbolic and salicylic acids.
Kreml Hair Tonic (R. B. Semler). Mainly alcohol, oil and water.
Liquid Arvon (R. L. Watkins Co.). Contained arsenic, which was no doubt responsible for the many cases of dermatitis (skin inflammation) resulting from its use.
Wildroot Hair Tonic (Wildroot Co.). Contained arsenic. Listerine (Lambert Pharmacal Co.). Claims to cure dandruff unwarranted.
Fitch's (F. W. Fitch). Claims to cure dandruff unwarranted. Formula 37. Misleading and unwarranted claims.

Images released by the Italian navy show the moment an overcrowded vessel capsized off Libya's coast, leaving at least five people dead.
The blue boat tipped over after refugees on board rushed together to one side on spotting a rescue ship coming towards them – a common mistake that has been causing similar accidents at sea.
The Italian navy managed to save around 562 people.
"Shortly afterwards the boat overturned due to overcrowding. The Bettica, which had arrived nearby, threw life-rafts and jackets to the migrants in the water," they said in a statement.
Due to calm weather, more people are embarking on the perilous journey to Europe's shore via the Mediterranean Sea. On May 23 and 24, about 5,600 migrants were rescued by Italian authorities. The numbers are expected to rise.
Recommended: The Mediterranean Has Turned Into A Sea Cemetery
Thousands of refugees from the Middle East have been escaping atrocities by dictators and terrorists over the past couple of years by risking their lives on dilapidated vessels.
"Over the past four years, IOM reports, 1.4 million migrants and refugees have crossed the Mediterranean via three principle routes linking Europe to North Africa and Turkey. During that same period, deaths recorded at sea are over 8,100," states the International Organization for Migration. "Nearly one thousand migrants or refugees are believed to have perished on the Eastern Mediterranean route. Hundreds more have drowned attempting the crossing to Europe via Spanish waters."
Since the conditions in their countries remain the same, people are continuously putting their lives in danger at sea.

The Kensington Gold Project is an underground gold mine approximately 45 miles north-northwest of Juneau. Development of its proposed facilities by Coeur Alaska, Inc., will fall on both private lands and National Forest System lands.
Tongass National Forest Supervisor Forrest Cole directed the Juneau Ranger District to proceed with implementation of Coeur Alaska, Inc.'s modified Plan of Operations. Coeur Alaska submitted the modified plan of operations to take into account the decisions reached in the Record of Decision for the Kensington Gold Project in December 2004.
The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) listed 16 conservation recommendations in its March 2005 Final Biological Opinion. In a June 9 letter to NMFS, Supervisor Cole listed the 16 discretionary activities recommended and how they were incorporated into authorizations issued by other permitting agencies and in the Plan of Operations. In its response, NMFS Regional Administrator James Balsiger noted that the agency was pleased that the Forest Service and other agencies were using their authorities to conserve humpback whales and Steller sea lions.
"This represents the culmination of a lot of effort on the part of our employees, and those of the other Borough, State and Federal permitting agencies," said Cole. "We appreciate the continuing support the State of Alaska has shown throughout this process," the Supervisor added. Two permits are yet to be obtained, including a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit from the Environmental Protection Agency and a Clean Water Act (Section 404) permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
The Kensington Project is expected to create more than 200 jobs during the two-year construction phase, and then average 225 employees annually during the expected 10- to 15-year life of the mine, according to the Kensington Gold Project Environmental Impact Statement. Coeur Alaska expects the mine to produce approximately 100,000 ounces of gold annually.

Steve Irwin's Father Warns Against Importing Roo Meat To China
Bob Irwin, father of the late television personality and conservationist Steve Irwin, is calling on China to disallow importing kangaroo meat for consumption.
"We wouldn't eat your pandas, so please don't eat our kangaroos. Come and see them," Irwin said.He said that importing kangaroo meat to the Asian market would result in a dwindling kangaroo population, which could hurt Australia's tourism industry.
"The Chinese are one of our biggest visitors and kangaroos are one of their favorite attractions. If they were to start eating kangaroos, we predict that within a few years there won't be any left in the wild for them to see," Irwin said.
According to AFP, John Kelly, executive officer of the Kangaroo Industry Association of Australia, said export to China would begin during the first half of next year.
"They're slow breeders and the numbers are critical at the moment so we're terrified at what happens if China opens their door to it," Australia Society for Kangaroos coordinator Nikki Sutterby said.
"We're trying to get the buying public and the international community to boycott it like they have done with seals and other barbaric trades."
As of August 1, Russia barred exports of kangaroo meat in addition to meats from other countries due to sanitary concerns.

Because one of my friends, a fellow West Virginia girl from my hometown, is ON it!
I've followed Amy as she plans her dream wedding, set in Disneyworld later this year. She's documented her wedding planning journey on her blog for the past year, and things are beginning to wind down a tad as the big day nears. She managed to keep her appearance on TLC's Say Yes to the Dress a secret since this past fall; it's finally airing tonight at 9pm, and judging from the previews, she is going to be a beautiful bride! She's mentioned that things didn't go as well in NYC as she'd hoped; I can't imagine myself trying to pick out a dress at Kleinfelds while being filmed, as I'm pretty sure I would've completely spazzed and crumbled from the pressure. I'm proud of her for taking advantage of this opportunity, and especially proud of her for being so modest about it – I certainly would have bragged (and blogged!) about it.
Tonight at 9pm, Amy's courageously sharing her dress searching experience with a national audience. Yikes!
If you plan to tune in, it's a great idea to play catch up on her story by reading her blog – she has done a fabulous job of documenting the details, her most recent post about the all important perfect shoe is amazing – she's one crafty lady! Get to know her husband-to-be, their charming engagement story (be warned: you'll be reduced to happy tears), then kick up your heels, and turn it on TLC. 9. I'll be tweeting (@Professors_Wife #SYTTD.)
Congrats to you, Amy – all the way from Cowen to Kleinfelds!

Why We Need to Encourage Curiosity In Students
A new study in Perspectives on Psychological Science suggests that intellectual curiosity — the proverbial "hungry mind" — is a predictor of academic success. While intelligence and effort are certainly important predictors of academic performance, Sophie von Stumm of the University of Edinburgh and her colleagues argue that curiosity can be thought of as the "third pillar of academic performance." Their findings are important not only for predicting student performance, but also for how well a potential employee may do their job.
Von Stumm and her colleagues reviewed data from 200 studies in which a total of some 50,000 students rated their own intellectual curiosity and other factors. Curiosity turned out to be as important a factor as conscientiousness:
Intelligence is important to academic performance, but it's not the whole story. Everyone knows a brilliant kid who failed school, or someone with mediocre smarts who made up for it with hard work. So psychological scientists have started looking at factors other than intelligence that make some students do better than others.
…von Stumm and her coauthors wondered if curiosity might be another important factor. "Curiosity is basically a hunger for exploration," von Stumm says. "If you're intellectually curious, you'll go home, you'll read the books. If you're perceptually curious, you might go traveling to foreign countries and try different foods." Both of these, she thought, could help you do better in school.
Describing herself as a "strong believer in the importance of a hungry mind for achievement," von Stumm notes that her findings suggest that teachers need to foster curiosity in students "to make them engaged and independent learners," and that universities should also pay attention to this trait in making admissions decisions. Employers ought also to look for people who are not only adept at learning new tasks on the job, but enjoy doing so:
"It's easy to hire someone who has the done the job before and hence, knows how to work the role," von Stumm says. "But it's far more interesting to identify those people who have the greatest potential for development, i.e. the curious ones."
As a teacher (writing this after a long teaching day), I can say that conscientious students who make every effort to pay attention in class, get assignments done, be well-prepared for the weekly grammar quiz, are definitely more than likely to do well in a class. But the students who one remembers are the ones who raise their hands to ask questions (sometimes with the phrase "I guess this isn't really relevant but I just wanted to ask"); who hang around after class and pull out a stack of graphic novels inspired by Greek mythology that they're dying to show me; who ask me if some anatomical term ("epiglottis") has the same root word (gloss, "tongue") as "glossolalia" and excited when I say yes, and then note another word ("glossary") from the same root.
The hardest part of studying ancient Greek and Latin is not memorizing vocabulary words and grammatical forms but translating, which requires not only knowing the rules but how to apply the rules. Even students who routinely do all their homework can be baffled by a sentence in ancient Greek or Latin and go the safe route, just writing down the meanings of some words rather than risking a translation the might be wrong. But it's always exciting to see that a student has taken a bit of a dare and written down something that may not be 100 percent correct, but shows their willingness to grapple with the ancient Greek and Latin.
That's my Greek and Latin classes. But consider a visionary like Steve Jobs: The iPhone, iPod, iTunes, didn't come into being under someone who just did the homework assignments, but someone who wondered, what if we try this, and tweak this, and change this…

I don't know what it is with me and running around, but I absolutely suck at it. Jogging a mile at a leisurely pace kills me, and that's on flat terrain.
It's not really because I get winded or out of breath - my legs just start hurting like a bitch. It looks like it's from hitting the pavement. I can do 7-8km on a bike in hilly terrain without any problem. I can walk that too easily, perhaps more. But if I start running or jogging, eventually my legs give out and I have to stop, and I'm not even tired.
I don't know if it's a question of technique, physiology, leg strength, bad shoes (I got good running shoes once though and my feet still died), but I'd really like to get better at running, except having my feet die after a hundred meters makes it hard to appreciate running. My cardio is not that great to begin with and I'd like to improve it.
So I thought maybe I could get some jogging technique pointers first to see if it makes any difference. Perhaps people who have been in the same boat can tell me something that would make a difference. I don't even know what I'm looking for. Just leaving that here in case.

Could your lifestyle be causing you undue stress? We carry stress in our bodies, and hold it in our minds, so a stressful experience can stay with us and keep affecting us after the actual experience has ended. However, the best way to manage severe stress is to prevent it, or catch it while it's still low stress and prevent it from becoming severe and chronic Managing stress in your daily life. There are many great stress-relieving exercises that can help you release both the tension from your body, and the stressful thoughts from your mind, making you more at peace and able to handle the stress that comes in each new day.

LeAnn Rimes is no stranger to being told she's too thin, but we never expected Giuliana Rancic to be the one calling her out! Though the E! News host has faced weight critics of her own for years, she had no qualms telling the singer she ought to be packing on a few pounds.
Speaking of LeAnn Rimes, Giuliana Rancic recently told Huffington Post, "She lost a lot of weight from all the stress in her life. She seems a little thin right now and I think she looks great when she's a bit curvier."
Never one to let a comment go without a reply, LeAnn took to her Twitter page to respond to Giuliana's comments. "@GiulianaRancic hey, we should go to dinner sometime," she wrote. "You get criticized all the time for how small you are. You can see just HOW much I eat and maybe put a stop to this crazy "shrinking" once and for all ... Then we should workout together! Good luck with your restaurant!!!!"
LeAnn Rimes, who recently celebrated her birthday on the beach in a bikini, was accused of being rude to Giuliana. "How is that rude?!" she reponded to a Twitter user. "It's the truth ... I just don't appreciate her comments, so I really would love for her to hang with me, see who I am. I am a person you know."
Break out the calendar and mark this down -- we're on LeAnn's side on this one! If anyone was being rude it was Giulana Rancic, don't you think?

Love, let us wait to watch our glory:
Things high and new over nature.
You see how sweetness showers on her,
See the light heaven casts over the land.
Through this shadow, enclosed by hills,
How gently she moves her mask
Of crimson clothing, gold.
Each sprig of grass, the thousand bright
Flowers scattered in shadow under the stooped oak,
Beg the weight of her walking.
And heaven, pierced with sharp stars,
Burns with desire, makes itself altogether new;
Makes itself clear and brilliant.

WHOI, the lead contractor on the Coastal and Global Scale Nodes (CGSN) component of the OOI, has been planning the project since it was awarded in 2007. WHOI is assisted by partners at Oregon State University and Scripps Institution of Oceanography and by Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems.
The successful Final Design Review of the OOI effort occurred in March 2009. The availability of funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 brought the start of the project forward from the planned date of July 2010 to September of 2009.
The early start enabled significant planning and preparation in 2009. This was done along with completion of a revised program of preliminary design and development work intended to advance the project between the design review and the start of the project, called a Major Research Equipment and Facilities Construction, or MREFC. The team at WHOI has worked with the support of the WHOI administration to build a sound foundation for the OOI effort—putting in place the staff, and obtaining space at a leased facility on Carlson Lane in Falmouth, Mass. to be used beginning in January 2010. Our partners at OSU and SIO have also worked to set up the teams to support the 5-year period of the MREFC in which the designs are completed, the infrastructure built, and the initial deployments carried out.
A fiber and copper cable on the seafloor on the Juan de Fuca plate off Washington provides bandwidth and power for the Regional Scale Node (RSN) component of the OOI, which will design and field a cabled seafloor and water column observatory. The RSN effort is led by the University of Washington. The CGSN and RSN observatories data will be collected, stored, and made freely available to users by the Cyber Infrastructure (CI) component of the OOI led by the University of California, San Diego. The Consortium for Ocean Leadership is the overall project lead for the OOI.
Coastal and Global Scale Nodes
The CGSN component includes two coastal observatories and four global observatories (Figure 1). The two coastal observatories, the Endurance Array off Oregon and Washington (Figure 2) and the Pioneer Array in the mid-Atlantic Bight (Figure 3), combine moorings and autonomous vehicles. At the Endurance Array and at the Pioneer Array, ocean gliders, which change their buoyancy and 'glide' forward as they rise and fall through the water column, provide the ability to sample across their respective geographic regions. They also may be tasked to specific sampling patterns in response to different events, such as the passage of an eddy through their ocean regions over the passage of a storm across the sea surface. The gliders move slowly, about 1/2 knot, and will be used to sample the regions spanning the moored arrays. At the Pioneer Array, powered autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) will also be used to sample, between and close by the moorings of the moored array.
The Endurance Array has two sets of moorings—one set of 6 aligned east-west off Newport, Oregon, with a pair of moorings at 25 m, 80m, and 500m depth; and a similar set off Gray's Harbor, Washington. Each pair has a surface mooring and a subsurface mooring. The subsurface moorings and benthic packages at the 500m and 80m Newport sites are attached to the fiber and copper cable of the RSN.
The Pioneer Array has 10 moorings, a mix of surface moorings and profiling moorings. At the base of some moorings of both the Endurance and Pioneer Arrays structures will be installed on the seafloor to serve as platforms for mounting sensors and, at the Pioneer Array, to provide a place for the AUVs to dock to exchange data and obtain power.
Two of the four global observatories will be deployed in the northern hemisphere: one in the Irminger Sea southeast of Greenland, and one in the Gulf of Alaska in partnership with NOAA's Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL). The other two global observatories will be deployed in the southern hemisphere, one off southern Chile and one in the Argentine Basin.
Each global array (Figure 4) combines the use of four moorings and three ocean gliders. The four moorings include a surface mooring, an adjacent mooring with two profiling instrument packages—one that moves from about 200 m depth to the surface and one that moves from 200 m depth to near the sea floor—and two taut subsurface moorings. The moorings will form a four-sided moored array whose sampling will be complemented by sampling done by three ocean gliders. These gliders will also use acoustic modems to collect data from the subsurface moorings and make it available in near-real time, along with data to be telemetered from the surface mooring and the adjacent profiler mooring.
Across the CGSN observatories the sampling is designed to provide data from the full water column, from the sea surface to the sea floor. More than 680 sensors will be deployed across the CGSN sites, making observations of air-sea exchanges and physical, chemical, biological, and geological variability and processes. As much as possible, data will be made available in near-real time; and all data will be collected by the CI group for public access.
The initial deployments of the CGSN observatories are now scheduled. Deployment times are chosen to provide the wind and wave conditions most conducive for work at sea and to accommodate the planned 12-month turn around schedule for global arrays and 6-month turn around schedules for coastal moorings. Coastal gliders will be serviced every three months.
The gliders of the Endurance and Pioneer Arrays will be deployed first, in mid-2012. The Pioneer Array moorings would be added in 2013 to complete that observatory. Additional elements of the Endurance Array are deployed in turn, the un-cabled moorings of the Newport Oregon line, the Washington mooring line, and finally the cabled elements of the Newport line. The Endurance Array will be completed in 2014; the Argentine Basin observatory will be deployed in the winter of 2012-2013; the Gulf of Alaska and Irminger Sea observatories will be deployed in the summer of 2013; and the observatory off southern Chile will be deployed in the winter of 2013-2014.

Solar and the Democratization of Energy-A A +A
Tuesday, May 13, 2014
Much credit is due to the Department of Energy for looking to expand the solar allocation under the Feed In Tariff to 500 MW instead of 50MW. In doing so, they are turning decidedly to an emerging technology that could elegantly serve as the answer to the problems now plaguing the power situation in the Philippines.
With supply and demand for electricity at parity, marginal market prices are naturally at risk. The country has been focused on trying to assign blame for price spikes when the WESM is merely doing what a market does—responding to supply/demand imbalances with price adjustments. Indeed, demand may be underestimated, given the country's GDP growth rate and attendant industrialization, its growing population and the price elasticity of electricity demand.
Solar photovoltaic electricity is now ready for prime time in the Philippines. There are unique places in the world, such as the Atacama desert of Chile, where solar electricity is estimated to cost as low as $0.12 US per kWh or 5.34 pesos (source: Deutsche Bank). While unique weather and geographic conditions enable such pricing, in the Philippines, given the generous presence of sunlight (a term in solar speak known as irradiance), average prices of 15 US cents per kWh (or about 6.7 pesos in today's rates) should be attainable. And it is the average price that counts—because almost the entire cost of this generation source is incurred up front rather than tied to the vicissitudes of any fossil fuel market. Importantly, solar PV electricity generation is most productive when the sun shines brightest—just those times when those loudly droning air conditioning motors place their highest demand on the grid. Solar supplies the most power just when the market is most vulnerable to needing expensive dispatchable power. It helps when help is needed most.
But the holy grail of solar has nothing to do with its cost and its compatibility with peak electricity demand. The greatest promise of solar is that it is the only scalable energy technology that is market ready today. That is, it can be deployed in small batches as well as in multi megawatt scale. Nor does it need to pass through the transmission and distribution infrastructure in order to generate electricity. Remote areas can have electricity at reasonable prices.
It is this small-scale deployment that promises, if properly cultivated, to serve as a boon to the growth of small businesses and thus potentially alter the landscape of wealth distribution. Small-scale integrators, solar operation and maintenance providers, engineers and construction teams—these are all livelihoods that could thrive around the arrival of this new energy technology. It stands not just to democratize the supply of power (and circumvent the need for transmission and distribution services) but act as a wealth creation engine—not as a redistribution of wealth, but the creation of it.
While this could happen as a matter of market course, it wouldn't hurt if the local governments follow through with this commitment to solar by guiding the development of the ancillary industries, ensure an industry structure that is democratic and distributed rather than dominated by a handful of players. It is, in fact, the nascency of these supporting industries that is the biggest impediment to the deployment of solar in the Philippines at this time. While module prices have fallen worldwide, the balance of system, installation and engineering costs in the Philippines have not benefited from the same learning curve as other jurisdictions where the industry was incubated by government subsidy. Initial costs in the Philippines, therefore, may not be as attractive as the 6.7 pesos cited earlier as technically viable—not initially (today they are closer to 9 pesos).
This move by Energy Secretary Petilla is a step in the right direction…one giant, bold, and promising step. Cebu should embrace this technology as a path to competitive advantage and nurture the development of supporting industries along with it.

ENGLISHTOWN, N.J. -- Cruz Pedregon won his 22nd career national event Saturday at the rain-delayed 31st annual Matco Tools Spring Supernationals presented by Racing Champions at Old Bridge Township Raceway Park.
Pedregon, from Camarillo, Calif., limped his Pontiac Firebird down the track in 6.543 seconds at 124.18 mph to defeat rival John Force and his Ford Mustang in a tire-smoking Funny Car finale. The victory was Pedregons first since the '98 Matco Tools Supernationals in Houston. Force lost traction at the start and peddled his car to a pass of 7.010 at 217.98.
"This win makes it all worth it, said Pedregon." "Winning like this gives me a chance to make a statement to potential sponsors, which we are constantly looking for. I'm just trying to win and I'm glad that I don't have to answer to anybody, I'm not going to apologize for running the car the way I did. A win's a win and this win just makes it better."
Pedregon achieved the victory by driving past Terry Haddock, Cristen Powell and Ron Capps before his meeting with Force.
Doug Kalitta, Jeg Coughlin, and Angelle Seeling were also the winners in their respective categories at the $2 million race, originally the eighth of 23 events in the $45 million NHRA Winston Drag Racing Series.
Kalitta, from Ypsilanti, Mich., won his third event of the year when he covered the distance in 4.637 at 313.29 to hold off Gary Scelzi's Team Winston dragster and his time of 4.639 at 313.66 in the split-second final. The margin of victory between Kalitta and Scelzi was a mere .007 of a second.
" I was pretty surprised, said Kalitta." "I didn't see Scelzi next to me and I haven't figured out how to look for that win light after the finish line, so when everybody started running towards me after I pulled off the track I knew something good happened." Kalitta had to defeat Doug Herbert, Tony Schumacher and Larry Dixon before facing Scelzi in the final. With the victory, Kalitta advanced to fifth place in the NHRA Winston points standings and only two points behind Kenny Bernstein who resides in the fourth position.
Jeg Coughlin, from Columbus, Ohio, won his eighth NHRA national event this season in his Oldsmobile Cutlass. His pass of 6.943 at 198.41 was just enough to hold off Greg Anderson who went 6.988 at 195.76.
" It feels great to pull a win off in front of all these fans, said Coughlin." "We knew we had to be on our best behavior today, so we went out there and did it. With Ron Krisher going out early it made us feel better and it stretched our points lead a little more, we love it."
Coughlin defeated Kurt Johnson, Tom Martino, and Darrell Alderman before meeting Anderson in the final. With the win, Coughlin leads Ron Krisher by 381 points going into the next event.
Seeling, from New Orleans, won her fifth Pro Stock Motorcycle final round this season on her Suzuki GSXR, covering the distance in 7.250 at 179.44. Seeling defeated Reggie Showers, Clarence Markham and Geno Scali to the title.
"Actually, going up against these guys is just as nerve racking as facing Hines or Antron Brown, Seeling said." "It took a lot of relaxing, a lot of concentration and a lot of focus, cause these guys are just as good as anybody and I'm glad I was able to win it."
Her 14th career victory puts her ahead of defending series champion Matt Hines by 157 points.
The next NHRA Winston Drag Racing Series event is the 16th annual Keystone
Nationals at Maple Grove Raceway in Reading, Pa., Sept. 14-17.

Mt. St. Helens: The Blast Zone
Read More →
A few months ago I completed my goal to climb to the top of Mt. St. Helens. It was an amazing experience but the one thing it didn't do was give me a close up view of the blast zone located on the opposite side of the mountain. So the other day I took a friend up to the Johnston Ridge Observatory and we did a nice 9 mile hike down to Spirit Lake.

Jett Jackson
Starting acting at age 10 as Dr. Martin Luther King in a play called A Night of Stars and Dreams, Lee Thompson Young garnered critical acclaim and young fans while starring as teenage secret-agent Jett Jackson/Silverstone on Disney Channels coming-of-age series The Famous Jett Jackson (1998-2001) and in its TV movie version, Jett Jackson: The Movie (2001). He starred as Alex Bauer, the manager of South Beach's hottest nightclub and the boyfriend of Arielle, a fashion model played by Odette Yustman on UPNs primetime drama co-executive produced by Jennifer Lopez, South Beach (2006), and portrayed Victor Stone (2006-Present), a former Metropolis High School football star who is half-human, half-machine, on The WB/The CWs teen sci-fi series Smallville.
On the big screen, Lee has starred in the films Friday Night Lights (2004) and Akeelah and the Bee (2006). His latest film, The Hills Have Eyes 2, in which he co-stars as the big and tough soldier Delmar Reed, will hit theaters on March 23, 2007.
Columbia Root
Childhood and Family:
In Columbia, South Carolina, Lee Thompson Young was born on February 1, 1984. His parents, Velma Love and Tommy Scott Young (a professional storyteller/actor/performer), split up when he was in second grade, and he went to live with his mother and his uncle, Rick. Lee has a half-sister named Tamu, who is 12 years older than him.
Lee attended a Montossori preschool and later Professional Performing Arts High School in New York City, whose alumni include Britney Spears, Claire Danes and Chris Trousdale. He currently studies at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.
In Smallville
Having been dreaming of becoming an actor since the age of 10 after portraying Dr. Martin Luther King in a play called A Night of Stars and Dreams, Lee Thompson Young did community theater for a while before traveling to New York during the spring break of 1996 and got himself an agent. One year later, he got to audition for the part of teenage secret-agent Jett Jackson/Silverstone for Disney Channel coming-of-age series The Famous Jett Jackson, and went to play the character from 1998 to 2001. The role later earned Lee three Young Artist Award nominations for Best Performance in a TV Drama Series - Leading Young Actor.
Meanwhile, Lee co-starred as the title roles surfing mentor on Disney Channel original movie Johnny Tsunami (1999; starring Brandon Baker) and appeared on Disneys special Steps and Youngstown in Concert (2000). He also joined other stars from Disney series and movies in the TV short Express Yourself (2001) and reprised his Jett Jackson/Silverstone role in the made-for-TV movie version, Jett Jackson: The Movie (2001).
The next years, Lee had a recurring role as Levi Mooney on CBS drama series The Guardian and had recurring voice role as Jermaine on Kids WB! original animated series Xiaolin Showdown. Meanwhile, he guest starred in Steven Bochco's short-lived courtroom drama Philly and UPN's now-cancelled sci-fi series Jake 2.0., Disney Channel's pre-teens/teenagers animated series The Proud Family and UPN law-drama Kevin Hill. He also acted opposite Jamie Foxx who portrayed the title role in the Golden Globe-nominated biographical TV movie about founder of the Crips L.A. street gang, Redemption: The Stan Tookie Williams Story (2004).
Lee got his first film acting role as Chris Comer, the third-string tailback and a sophomore in Peter Berg's film adaptation of H.G. Bissinger's 1990 book, the football drama Friday Night Lights (2004; starring Billy Bob Thornton). Afterward, he became regular cast member of UPNs primetime drama co-executive produced by Jennifer Lopez, South Beach (2006). In the show, which was cancelled after eight first-run episodes, Lee played Alex Bauer, the manager of South Beach's hottest nightclub and the boyfriend of Arielle, a fashion model played by Odette Yustman.
Lee subsequently nabbed another recurring role, this time as Victor Stone (2006-Present), a former Metropolis High School football star who is half-human, half-machine, on The WB/The CWs sci-fi series that follows young Superman/Clark Kent, Smallville. During that time, he also supported Keke Palmer and Laurence Fishburne in writer/director Doug Atchison's family drama film Akeelah and the Bee (2006), portraying Akeelah's brother Devon.
Recently, Lee has completed his upcoming film, The Hills Have Eyes 2, in which he co-stars as Delmar Reed, the big and tough soldier. The film, a sequel to Alexandre Ajas 2006 remake of the Wes Cravens 1977 horror film The Hills Have Eyes, is scheduled for release on March 23, 2007. It also stars Jessica Stroup, Reshad Strik, Michael McMillian and Daniella Alonso.

Critical access hospital gets new EHR to meet meaningful use stage 2
A Colorado critical access hospital upgraded their EHR. Managing costs for meaningful use stage 2 will now be easier, their IT director says.
CHIME CIO perspectives, advice on health IT issues
Editor's note: This podcast and a companion interview with Hackensack (N.J.)

The bad news is, Michael Archuleta, director of IT and PACS administrator for Mt. San Rafael Hospital in Trinidad, Colorado, had his hands full with an EHR rip-and-replace in preparation for meaningful use stage 2 earlier this year.
The good news? The critical access hospital is just starting stage 1 now, one of the later entrants into the program. That way, he said, the hospital can continue smoothing the edges in its workflow implementation of its new EHR, which replaced a legacy system the vendor was not going to certify for meaningful use, while early adopters of stage 2 blaze trails and create best practices for his facility to use when it reaches that milestone.
In this podcast, Archuleta discusses the process and cost of a small hospital implementing meaningful use, and especially a remote critical access hospital. His story reflects optimism about technologies to improve care, while acknowledging the challenges that come for him and his peers far removed from the resources afforded similar facilities in urban settings.
Other examples of EHR replacements
- Marc Probst, vice president and CIO of Intermountain Healthcare, discusses how installing a new EHR system changed his organization's plans for meeting the stage 2 compliance deadline. He explains that patient safety and other health IT regulations took precedence over meaningful use incentives.
- A survey measured providers' dissatisfaction with their EHR system. It revealed that system upgrades and other hidden costs have driven some to the point of dumping their old EHR and starting anew.
- Will the advanced capabilities of the next generation of EHRs convince providers to adopt a new system? Read to find out what's driving EHR innovation and what the products of tomorrow might be able to do.

Let's get it started
One consensus quickly emerging as the Eagles' veterans arrived at training camp is the sense of focus the team has coming off last season's dreadful 8-8 season.
"You have to always have the mindset that you're fighting an uphill battle," said defensive tackle Cullen Jenkins. 'You need to think that way. Now we have to go out and fight for it. I'd rather fly under the radar and go unnoticed and then go out and make some noise."
With a new lucrative deal and heading into his fourth season, LeSean McCoy knows what's needed from him. "This offseason, I was talking to Mike [Vick] and he wants me to be a leader," McCoy said. "And I'm ready. Coach Reid and the coaching staff have confidence in me, so it's time to step up."
The veterans may be ready to play the games, however that doesn't mean they're eager for Reid's intense training camp. "I'm anxious to get the work in and to get the season started. I'm not anxious for training camp," laughed 10-year vet Nnamdi Asomugha. "But this is where you get the work in for the season."
The new kid in town
The first full team practice of training camp (which is closed to the public) is Thursday at 3:30 p.m., and by Saturday Reid said the team will be live tackling. That's not what seven-year vet and new acquisition DeMeco Ryans experienced in Houston.
"We didn't have full scrimmaging and tackling as early as the Eagles do," said the two-time Pro Bowler, "but there's more than one way to make a team better. I'm pretty sure Coach Reid knows how to get it done."
Ryans is eager to get started. "I tell people all the time that I'm happy to be an Eagle. It's a good team, a good fit, so I'm looking to come in and do my part."
How to handle the heat
Among the items arriving with the veterans were hyperbaric chambers brought by Jason Babin and Trent Cole. Fellow defensive lineman Cullen Jenkins got a laugh out of the luggage and said he had his own plans to handle the heat in the coming days.
"I just have ice cream and air conditioning," Jenkins said. "Shoot, I've been in the league nine years so I must be doing something right."
With temperatures expected to be in the upper 90s Thursday, Jenkins' plan sounds pretty good.

Recipe: Spaghetti with Mascarpone, Meyer Lemon, Spinach, and Hazelnuts
We had two encounters with mascarpone cheese in pasta recently. One was seeing this Tagliatelle with Spinach, Mascarpone, and Parmesan over on Jamie Oliver's website. The other was catching the tail end of a British cooking show where the host was making mascarpone-lemon spaghetti. (We're sensing an English theme.) This is our version, which borrows a bit from both but has the bright flavor of Meyer lemon plus toasted hazelnuts, which turned out to be the best ingredient of all...
Mascarpone is a soft, scoopable, sweet cheese. Not sugar sweet, but mild and milky with just the tiniest bit of tang. The Meyer lemon has that same quality: sweeter than a regular lemon but still tart. They make a great sauce together, lighter than a typical cream sauce but still silky and rich.
The hazelnuts were a last-minute addition. We made this pasta once without them, and we even tested a few bites with the nuts sprinkled on top before we dumped the whole lot into the pan. But they really elevated this dish to something special, in our opinion, by adding another texture and flavor.
We didn't bother pre-cooking the spinach. Instead, we threw it in with the warm pasta and sauce, adding a tiny bit of pasta water to keep the mixture loose while we continued to heat it over a low flame. The spinach wilts in no time. In fact, the entire dish doesn't take more than 15 minutes to pull together.
Tester's Notes
Ever since Elizabeth shared this recipe a few years ago, I've been dying to try it. I finally got it on the menu last week and, honestly, couldn't stop shoveling it into my mouth. It was simultaneously sophisticated and absurdly fast and easy.
The sauce is just a handful of ingredients — lemon, mascarpone, salt and pepper. Toss with freshly-cooked pasta and wilted spinach, and it's ready! The hazelnuts are a smart, delicious touch.
I could see adding a slice or two of garlic, to add one more element, but it's really not necessary. Regardless, it is a tremendously delicious and easy little pasta dish — satisfying and beautiful.
- Faith
Spaghetti with Mascarpone, Meyer Lemon, Spinach, and Hazelnuts
Serves 2 as a main course
Meyer lemon, zested and juiced (about 3 tablespoons juice)
1/2 cup
mascarpone cheese
1/2 teaspoon
A few grinds of fresh pepper
1/4 teaspoon
freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 pound
5 cups
(loosely packed) fresh spinach, washed, spun dry, and roughly chopped
1/2 cup
chopped, toasted hazelnuts
Combine the zest, lemon juice, mascarpone, salt, pepper, and nutmeg in a bowl. Whisk to combine.
Bring a pot of water to boil and salt generously. Cook the pasta until al dente, taking it off the heat about 1 to 2 minutes before you would normally remove it. Drain, reserving about 1/2 cup of the pasta water.
Return the pasta to the pot, and set over low heat. Stir in the mascarpone sauce. Add the spinach and toss so that the spinach begins to wilt. Add about 1/4 cup of the pasta water (more if necessary) to keep the sauce fluid but not too watery. Continue to cook and toss until the spinach is cooked. Add the hazelnuts and stir to combine. Serve immediately.

Representing the MSR Cryptoprotocol Specification Language in an Extension of Rewriting Logic with Dependent Types
Date of Original Version
Abstract or Description
This paper presents a shallow and efficient embedding of the security protocol specification language MSR into an extension of rewriting logic with dependent types. The latter is an instance of the open calculus of constructions which integrates key concepts from equational logic, rewriting logic, and type theory.MSR is based on a form of first-order multiset rewriting extended with existential name generation and a flexible type infrastructure centered on dependent types with subsorting. The encoding presented in this paper has served as the basis for the implementation of an MSR specification and analysis environment using the first-order rewriting engine Maude.

GM's Buick to launch Avenir sub-brand https://t.co/3jbf1lpPxu #detroit pic.twitter.com/QKnDkELdYc
— Detroit News Now (@detroitnewsnow) October 2, 2016
The new Buick Avenir sub-brand will debut a lineup of concept car-inspired vehicles for the 2018 model year. The Buick Avenir was introduced as a concept car at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show and has now spanned an entire lineup of super-luxurious vehicles with special design touches.
Buick says the Avenir sub-brand is its own version of GMC's luxury Denali line, which adds luxury amenities and features to existing GMC trucks and SUVs. The Avenir brand reflects Buick customers' preference for higher-end vehicles; 90% of Enclave buyers, according to Buick, chose one of the two highest trim levels.
The Avenir models will take inspiration from the Avenir concept showed last year, most likely integrating the three-dimensional grille, larger wheels, and unique exterior finishes, as well as special interior detailing and Avenir badging. There are also rumors that upcoming Avenir sub-brand models could borrow styling cues from the popular Avista coupe concept.
Buick was the fastest-growing international brand of 2015, and continuing to expand the brand's international appeal is a major focus of the company. Avenir, which is the French word for "future," exemplifies "an important piece of future direction," according to Helen Emsley, the executive director of Buick Global Design.
Specific product details for the Avenir lineup have not yet been announced.

You may have noticed British-grown fruit and vegetables getting smaller,or having blighted and discoloured skin – all consequences of 2012's sustained bad weather. But a leading scientist is now warning that the mis-shapen produce is only half the story: it could also be less healthy and less tasty as a result.
Heavy rainfall is likely to have washed away nutrients in the soil, while the lack of sunshine could have adversely affected sugar levels in growing produce, says Professor Mike Gooding, the head of agricultural policy and development at Reading University.
