A little crashier than the previous version. :(
I love this ap compared to fb mobile to be sure, but I long for the day that you can fix the crashing. This version crashes more often than the previous one, and truly, each version seems crashier and crashier. This one drops 2-3 times per day at a minimum, boo! What do I like about it, you ask? I like that you guys don't assume that you know what I want to see. Thank you for assuming that if I like someone or something, that it want to know whats going on with that person or thing!
Not too bad.
This app does what it's suppose to do. So far, twitter works great for me and I was able to quickly change from twitter to Facebook with one tap. I can't say anything about Instagram because I don't have one. Facebook is the reason I give this a three. It works fine, but I can only see the posts from the pages I like rather than seeing what my friends post. Also, when I want to post something on Facebook and Twitter at the same time or separately, I can do it on Twitter successfully, but I can't do it on Facebook because my iPad kept telling me that I'm not successfully connected with it when it is connected. I mean, it could be my iPad, but other than that, great app!
Pretty sure I screwed up...
Pretty sure I screwed up downloading this because as soon as I logged in a box popped up that looked like my iTunes login. I have no idea why it was asking that which was hokey as all heck. I wish I'd thought about it a little longer but I logged in. Immediately after that an iTunes confirmation window popped up asking to confirm a $2.99 purchase of an app I'd never heard of. Now I'm gonna have to change my iTunes password that I've had for years. I kept the app just long enough to write this review. Also, I've owned this app awhile now, per the devs guidance, I've had to delete and reinstall it multiple times to get it work again. Too bad because when it did work it worked good.

I consider myself pretty lucky. I have a good job. I enjoy what I do and the people I work with, but Mondays are still Mondays. It's not always easy to head back to work after a weekend with family, and I miss having the pups follow me from room to room. Today was a typical Monday, until I received this photo along with the message, below.
Carla ~ just wanted to drop a note saying thank you for the EllieBellie raffle basket you donated to CSR. For the 2nd yr in a row, I was the lucky winner. The odds were in my favor since almost all 50 raffle tickets went to your basket. I love it! Logan and Parker love it, too! Thank you!
Thank you, Carrie Kallstrom, you totally made my day! I LOVE getting photos of dogs with their blankets and hearing how you stacked the odds in your favor brought the biggest smile to my face. 🙂

You know how much I love the North Carolina State Fair.
Now you can see (and hear) it for yourself.
I love this video for two reasons:
1. I talk mostly about food.
2. I talk so much that I got edited. On a live video. Because I'm so freaking talky. Ask me a question and wheee there she goes …
If you're local to the Triangle and haven't yet discovered Go Ask Mom, you must check it out! This site is one of my go-to sources for kids' events and activities, consignment sales, craft projects … and soon enough, summer camps. Sarah Hall, who runs the site, is just lovely. And she has two young children, so she knows her stuff (and thank goodness for us, she shares it all on Go Ask Mom).
So. My 15 minutes of fame. Deep-fried, of course.
Making you proud!

I shot this phone video sideways by accident. And when I tried to correct it, I made it worse. But still. It's worth watching, just for Sophie's big smile at the very end.
Happy Friday. And happy weekend!

Here it is! Finally. The Small Fry video interview.
Thanks to all of you who sent us questions. She certainly was intrigued by all of our "friends in the computer" who wanted to get to know her.
We had such fun making this little video. It's inspired me to make a new one every year, to mark each age. What a fun way to document her interests … as well as her sweet voice, mannerisms and all of the other good stuff that doesn't come through in still photos.
A bit of a warning: the video is about 13 minutes long. We just had to squeeze in a Beyonce dance party and play room tour. And also, I don't know how to edit these videos. Yet.
So grab a snack and enjoy!

Published on: 15/08/2017
Local authorities are committed to developing strategic WASH plans for the 2030 horizon.
Despite the relatively good rainfall in the Cascades Region in Burkina Faso, access to drinking water and sanitation remains a real headache for the population. To address this issue, IRC, in collaboration with WaterAid, and with funding from the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, is going to provide assistance in developing strategic plans for drinking water and sanitation services in three municipalities in the region, namely Banfora, Bérégadougou and Niangoloko. IRC, which has made the issue of universal access to drinking water and sanitation by 2030 its focus, has come to the region to exchange views with local authorities and actors.
On April 19, 20 and 21, 2017, start-up workshops were organised in the three municipalities. Through a participatory approach, IRC introduced a new tool for the planning and development of WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene) services so that by 2030, water and sanitation are no longer a luxury for the population. To this end, they have set themselves the primary objective of taking stock of the existing water and sanitation situation, and after that develop a communal strategic plan.
Despite efforts in the past decades, most rural communities in Burkina Faso still struggle to meet the needs for drinking water and sanitation. This is particularly the case in the rural commune of Bérégadougou and in the urban communes of Niangoloko and Banfora.
"It is unbelievable that you have your feet in the water, but that you do not have drinking water," said Denis Zoungrana, senior expert and associate of IRC, at the beginning of the workshop.
It was a question of bringing together religious leaders, leaders of the decentralised powers, mayors, associations of water users, the administration in charge of water and sanitation, village councillors for development, as well as the decentralised technical services of the state, to discuss the issue of access. Participants from the three municipalities in the workshop, regardless of their social status and age, showed great interest in the issue at hand.
"We really suffer. Our women especially. To get water, they have to wake up at 4am. There are times when we do not even have enough to cook ... ", revealed Brahima Soma, chief of the township of Bonouna, a village in the commune of Banfora.
IRC has always stressed that it is not just about the construction of water and sanitation systems, but also about reliable services. In the past, boreholes were dug without asking whether this solved the water problems of the population or not.
"It is the same as having the antenna of a telephone company in your village, you have a cell phone and a chip, but you cannot communicate because the network is of poor quality," said an IRC staff member.
It is essential to create the conditions for the population to have reliable access to safe drinking water and sanitation services, without throwing away old projects and their achievements. Therefore IRC wants, together with the municipalities, to ensure that the installed structures really deliver water to the population, that the water is of good quality and that there is a continuous service. To achieve this, the municipal authorities as well as all the actors involved in the sector need to be accountable for delivering this service.
The Banfora town councillor Boubacar Héma agrees, "the participatory approach proposed by IRC is relevant and the indicators are measurable".
Bassie Héma, mayor of Niangoloko, states: "instead of the plans being imposed on us, the partners indicated that it is we who will have to be the owners of this project, they are only the facilitators".
The village chief of Bérégadougou said the same: "if the villagers are not held responsible for the continuity of services, they will always wait for the donors to do the repairs when there is a breakdown". "As the IRC experts explained to us this morning; we are responsible and they are here to help us develop what we want and need. This is a very good thing, because even if we do not have an actual plan yet, we know what we want and do not want".
This means that the whole project focuses on the fact that the people themselves should commit to changing the situation. Currently, in the municipality of Bérégadougou 71.9% of the population has access to drinking water, in Niangoloko 53.8% and in the urban commune of Banfora 91%. With the help of the communal strategic plans and the investment plans, the figures for the respective communes will improve. For this to happen, a strong commitment from all stakeholders is needed and all parties must adhere to the timetable for the development of the strategic WASH plans.

We actually stumbled across this restaurant around Chinese New Year as we were walking towards DiHua street (迪化街). This place is really close to YuanShan MRT station, maybe less than 5mins walk. The smell from this place is enough to lure any unsuspecting passer-by inside, salivating as they do. Yet, from the outside the shop looks fairly typical of any Beef Noodle Shop in Taipei.
I'll be honest, the menu is quite daunting. But that's part of the fun of not speaking or reading Chinese, right? You can choose a few things and see what you get. It's exciting. However, speaking Chinese does have its advantages; we ordered the beef offal soup (niu2za2tang1牛雜湯) and the slices of beef in soup (sheng1tang4niu2rou4tang1生燙牛肉湯). If you're not a fan of offal then that's ok because, as you can see, the menu is vast. If this is the case, then it's best to avoid 肚,肝,or 腦.
The beef offal soup was fantastic. Slices of intestine and stomach interspersed with some fresh ginger made for a beautifully delicate broth. I am a big advocate of the clear soup, they tend to taste a little more fresh and light. This soup was packed with offal, all nicely cooked but still retaining a healthy bite.
This beef soup is made famous in TaiNan (Southern Taiwan). With a lot of Taiwanese Beef Noodle soups, oftentimes the beef is frozen into a roll and then when the order comes in the chefs will cut a slice off the roll and cook it like that. However, this is done slightly differently: the meat is kept fresh, and slices are cut off and added into the hot soup at the last moment whilst in the bowl (not on the heat). So the thin slices of beef cook in the soup, itself. This makes for a deliciously tender meat. Again, the added ginger gives the soup a slight spice, but remains light and fresh.
We weren't particularly hungry at the time we stumbled across this place. However, I will be returning, as the taste of the two dishes we had was enough to 'star' it onto my 'google maps'. Having since spoken to friends, they have recommended me the curry (chao3ga1li3niu2rou4fan4 炒咖哩牛肉飯) and I think I would also be extremely intrigued about the bull testicles (niu2rou4dan4牛肉蛋) . This place comes with high recommendations from me: its easily accessible, inexpensive, big enough that you shouldn't need to line up and the taste is really quite special.
No. 20, Tianshui Rd., Datong District, Taipei City
Happy Eating!

Eye For An Eye Or Turn The Other Cheek? Essay, Research Paper
It is a time of mourning for the United States. They are now being compared with the countries they, themselves, condemn. The death penalty is cruel and unusual because it breaks sacred amendments and commandments. The death penalty should no longer be an option. According to many people, "we have progressed since the barbaric stone-age," (Alexander 1) yet our Judicial system does not seem to show it. Murdering someone is a barbaric act, whether it is by an individual, society, or our government. Everyone has heard the saying, "two wrongs don't make a right," what would one call the death penalty? The death penalty must be eliminated because it kills innocents and destroys our fundamental human rights: "the right to life" (Reddall 1), it is racially biased, it is based on revenge not as a deterrent and it does not deter crime, it is more expensive, and it goes directly against The Bible.
Whether someone wants to believe it or not, innocent people have been sent to death row. "From 1900 to 1985, 350 people imposed with the death penalty were innocent, and 23 of those people were actually put to death" (Cruel 2). Supporters of the death penalty seem to show no remorse for these deaths. One supporter said, "In the medical profession almost 100,000 people are wrongly killed every year by errors, and we fix them and move on" (McLaughlin 2). These barbaric acts should not come as a shock, though. "The United States is one of only five countries in the world that execute minors. The U.S. joins Iran, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen" (Cruel 1). It seems ironic that all four other countries the U.S. condemns for human's rights violations. "Abma criticized the U.S. for using a 'double standard' in human rights cases. He said a large gap exists 'between what the U.S. is saying to others and what the U.S. is doing to its own citizens.' He cited cases of police brutality and poor prison conditions, aside the obvious death penalty, as examples" (Yashiro 1). ?I have full sympathy for the families of murder and other crimes, but I refuse to accept that one death justifies another? (Reddall 1). Capitol punishment is an act from ages ago and should no longer be used. Although, the argument already seems logical there is still more that can be argued.
?Contrary to popular belief, capitol punishment is 4 to 6 times more expensive than life imprisonment? (McLaughlin 2). Most arguments for capitol punishment are based on the belief that it is less expensive. Supporters say counting the shelter, food, electricity, water, and all other possible luxuries, life imprisonment would be much more expensive. In fact, due to all the appeals the courts have from death penalty recipients, it would be less costly to give an eight-teen year old life imprisonment without parole, rather than give him the death penalty.
?Thou shalt not kill? (Exodus 20:13). Everyone is familiar with this saying, although, everyone breaks it. ?70% of Americans support the death penalty? (McLaughlin 1). The majority, support the death penalty even when the majority of Americans are Christians. ?86.4% of Americans are Christians? (Religion 4). Almost all Christians support the death penalty, in other words. Has everyone become a heathen? What of the quote from The Bible, ?He who is without sin shall cast the first stone? (St. John 8:7). In other words, he who is perfect can condemn others for their sins; the rest of the population can sit and watch. There is only one person who is without sin and God explains it in this quote, ?Vengeance is mine, saith the Lord? (Romans 3:5). The pope even disagrees with the death penalty. The pope also speaks for a very large percentage of Americans. ?Over 60 million people belong to the Roman Catholic Church, which is the largest religious group in the United States? (Religion 2). Heathens or not most people disagree with murder, but yet they find it alright and non-binding to collectively kill someone.
This brings us to the fourth reason. Many claim it is a deterrent. It is not. ?In recent studies it has been shown that states with the death penalty have a higher murder rate than states that have already abolished it? (McLaughlin 1). It may not seem logical, but then again people with an illness do not think logically. The death penalty is not a deterrent; it cannot be. ?Lawes believed hat the death penalty?s defects made it a ?useless punishment too seldom applied by judge and jury to be a warning?? (Hughes 1). The death penalty is not used as a deterrent; it is used as revenge. ?Retribution is just another word for revenge? (Alexander 1). Revenge should not be the reason to kill another person. It should never be. Revenge is the number one reason murders are committed in the first place. ?If we collectively kill for revenge, we, in fact, give the green light for murder? (Alexander 1). Alexander made several good points. Killing someone or ?correcting a wrong with a wrong? (Alexander 1) is not right and never was. It also never will be right, as long as this nation stays civilized. ?Whether it be by the state (us collectively), whether it be by an individual for whatever reason, except in the case of self-defense where there is no alternative, the killing of one person by another or others for whatever reason should be something that is simply ?not done,? period? (Alexander 1). There is one final flaw with the death penalty, though.
This flaw is that it is racially discriminate. Discrimination is the plague of the land and it still lingers. Even where, tried by a group of his peers, discrimination should not appear, it does. ?Of the 4,016 people executed between 1930 and 1990, 53% were black, yet black people comprised only 12% of the American population. And death sentences are 4.3 times more likely to be imposed on convicted murderers if their victims were white than if their victims were black? (Cruel 2). When 12% of the population can declare ownership to 53% of the death row inmates a statement is being made. This is not a statement claiming black people commit more and more malicious crimes than whites, it is saying that there is discrimination in the legal system.
Capitol punishment is not something Americans should support or be proud of. Capitol punishment is a barbaric act that has drawn the United States back into the medieval ages. ?An execution is degrading and inhumane. Whether it is less horrible than other methods is not relevant? (Reddall 1). It is quite evident that capitol punishment has flaws. Of those flaws the worst is the violation of human rights. This is why capitol punishment must be abolished. Capitol punishment must be abolished because it is racially discriminate and it also goes against the very thing this country was founded on: The Bible. Capitol punishment, though, also is used for the very reason murders are committed in the first place: revenge, and it is not used as a deterrent as most would want one to believe. ?Of the 22,000 murders committed each year, only 250 death sentences are handed down? (Cruel 2). With figures as this how can anyone argue that capitol punishment is being used as a deterrent?

Soapland is situated just next to the centre of controversy (on the other side of Morrisons). Here are nine times that soap stories had the nation gasping (and complaining):
1. The baby swap (EastEnders)
When Kat and Alfie returned to EastEnders in 2010, we were told that they would be involved in (possibly) one of the biggest storylines in soap history. What we didn't know was that it was also going to be one of the most controversial. There were gasps aplenty when Ronnie swapped her dead baby son with Kat's newborn baby Tommy and, with them, came the complaints.
But while Ronnie's baby-swapping antics horrified many viewers, charities and even Samantha Womack herself, the complaints were eventually rejected by Ofcom, leaving EastEnders in the clear. The plot was brought to an early finish, however (it was initially meant to run for a year or two), and no soap has tackled something quite so grim since. For now, anyway...
2. Nat and Georgia's incest (Brookside)
Soaps love a bit of incest (and some more than others), but this Brookie storyline had even its most ardent fans up in arms. While the majority of sibling soap scandals occur when the pair aren't aware they are related, that wasn't the case here.
Nat and Georgia were full-blown siblings who embarked on a full-blown relationship right under their parents' noses. Needless to say, their folks were fairly horrified by the whole thing, and so was the nation it seemed, as the complaints flooded in.
Channel 4 was forced to issue an apology in 1996 following a scene that showed the duo sharing an intimate moment in bed and even the show's producer Phil Redmond has admitted that they went too far with the storyline.
3. Toyah's rape (Corrie)
A shock Corrie storyline back in 2001 saw Les Battersby's daughter brutally left unconscious after she was beaten and raped in an alleyway. But what followed was even more shocking. With Toyah unsure of who the culprit was, a whodunnit plot unfolded in front of our eyes, hot on the heels of 'Who Shot Phil?'.
Only this was a very different matter altogether and many viewers found the plot distasteful given the sensitive nature of the issue. Even Corrie legend Jean Alexander, who played soap stalwart Hilda Ogden, spoke out about the story: "A lot of children watch the show and rape is no fit subject for youngsters."
4.Jackson's assisted suicide (Emmerdale)
Emmerdale came under fire in 2011 when Aaron Livesy helped his partner Jackson Walsh to die, after he had been left paralysed following an accident. An Ofcom investigation was launched after the assisted suicide plot garnered several complaints – and was even criticised by a spinal injuries charity and a tetraplegic man, who believed more sides of the issue should have been presented. But with the complaints also came a lot of praise for the moving and honest way in which the story was told.
5. Hayley's suicide (Corrie)
Much like Emmerdale, this Corrie story also raised debate. In 2014, our hearts broke as Hayley died in the arms of her husband Roy. But many newspapers and charities had a thing or two to say about her demise. The Samaritans in particular feared that it could affect vulnerable viewers, while Care Not Killing said the story should have focused on the quality care available to terminally ill patients. Corrie's then-producer Stuart Blackburn defended the plot, saying the show had a right to have and influence that discussion.
6. Sheila's suicide (Corrie)
Hayley's story wasn't the show's first suicide plot that caused a stir. In 1963, outraged Coronation Street fans got wind of plans to have Sheila Birtles take her own life. So the plot was hastily rewritten, Sheila survived, and new scenes were shot. In fact, the suicide went unaired for over four decades until The Corrie Years documentary finally showed it in 2011.
7. Plane crashes (Emmerdale)
Plane crashes seem to be a bit of a running theme in soaps these days, with Emmerdale having aired not one but two plane-related disasters. Back in 1993, Emmerdale sparked controversy by broadcasting the disaster so close to the five-year anniversary of the Lockerbie tragedy.
And more complaints followed after a helicopter collided into the village hall in 2015. Many felt that it was too close to home for the families of the victims who lost their lives in the devastating Clutha Vaults helicopter crash. But producer Kate Oates insisted that she had considered the Glasgow disaster in the planning of the story and never intended to mimic it.
8. Child killing (Hollyoaks)
In 2009, Hollyoaks bosses were forced to pull a controversial storyline which saw Loretta revealing she'd killed a child in her past just days before it was due to air. Many publications compared the storyline to the real life murder of Jamie Bulger, but the show's decision to rewrite the plot came following criticism from his mother.
9. Max Branning buried alive (EastEnders)
Remember that rather bizarre time Tanya Branning decided to bury her hubby Max in the woods? Max had broken her heart by having an affair with Stacey Branning but nothing could forgive Tanya's brutal – and completely bonkers – decision to drug him, drag him to the woods and bury him alive in a manually dug hole.
Tanya did end up having a change of heart about leaving her cheating ex to die in such a cruel way, but viewers couldn't get over her callous behaviour, with many branding it "unsuitable" for the time of broadcast. And this time, Ofcom agreed. "The scenes of Max being buried alive were offensive and not justified by the context," read part of a statement from Ofcom. But our biggest bugbear of the whole sorry story was how unrealistic it was. Just how did she really manage to get him to the woods in the first place? Hmm.

Whose Side Are You On?June 15th, 2011
As salespeople, professionals and business owners, we tend to believe that we're working in our prospect's best interests. If we recommend a product or service to them, it's because we think it will help them solve their problems or achieve their goals.
And yet we get resistance and pushback from them. So many salespeople have complained to me that prospects won't even talk to them, when all the salesperson is trying to do is help.
The problem is, prospects have a completely different perception. They see salespeople as working in their own best interests. If a salesperson recommends something, it's because the salesperson makes money on the deal. Period.
Whose perception is right?
We see ourselves one way, prospects see us another. And both points of view are valid. Because, really, what good salespeople, professionals and business owners do is find ways to make the prospect's interests and their own interests coincide, to mutual benefit.
So if you want to boost your sales, first, you need to recognize and appreciate that prospects don't trust you immediately, no matter how pure of heart you are. And then you need to help your prospects understand that while you are indeed working in your own best interests, you're also working in theirs.
That means investing the time and effort to build their trust. To help them overcome their fears of being lied to and cheated. (Which very well may have happened to them in the past.) And to instill in them a measure of confidence in you.
It doesn't happen overnight, but with patience and persistence, you can show your prospects that your interest isn't the only one you're working in.

Carbon Cycle Science Supply Side Sector: Sequestration Technologies
The debate on what to do about global warming usually centers around two options: mitigation and adaptation. A third, less frequently discussed option also exists: sequestration of CO2. The basic idea of carbon sequestration is to remove CO2 from the atmosphere, or prevent it from getting there in the first place, and then store it elsewhere. While there are a wide variety of sequestration options that are currently being researched, the Department of Energys Office of Fossil Energy has identified three basic requirements for carbon sequestration to be successful:
What follows is a sample of the various sequestration options and relevant research and links.
No-till or Low-till agriculture
Agriculture emits CO2 when farmers till their fields and expose organic matter in the soil to the air. The soil organic matter, mainly carbon, then decomposes and is converted into atmospheric CO2. Reducing or eliminating tillage can prevent soil organic matter loss and hence decrease agricultural emissions. Agricultural soils could be turned into a short-term sink for carbon dioxide under no-till methods. The IPCC believes that cropland sequestration could total 40-80Gt C in the next 50 to 100 years.
Soil Conservation Practices
Practices designed to reduce soil erosion from agricultural lands can contribute to efforts to increase soil carbon, and hence to sequester atmospheric carbon. Some such practices include planting cover crops to eliminate vare fallow periods, planting hedges or grass strips as wind breaks, reducing week control in areas of high erosion, terracing , and planting perpendicular to the slope of the field and /or the prevailing wind direction (Hedger et al. 1997).
Cropland Retirement
Numerous studies have detailed the vast amounts of carbon lost when forests and grasslands are converted to agricultural land. Retiring land from crop production and reestablishing perennial vegetation can go a long way to recover this lost carbon and produce a temporary (years to decades) sink for CO2. This retirement can take several forms: abandonment of farms; allowing nature to take its course; deliberate efforts to reestablish forests or grassland through active land management; or temporary set-asides.
CO2 Separation and Capture Technologies
Chemical Absorption of CO2 using an amine solvent (Scrubbing)
Chemical absorption of CO2 using alternative sorbents
The process of absorption using alternative sorbents is similar to that of using amine solvents, but tends to absorb more CO2 with lower energy, material or space demands. Various sorbents have been tested such as aqueous potassium carbonate combined with the chemical piperazine; magnesium hydroxide; lithium silicate ceramic; and a nickel-based sorbent.
Adsorption differs from absorption in that one substance is made to adhere or stick to another, rather than being incorporated into the other substance. Adsorption is therefore based on physical, rather than chemical, interactions between materials.
Gas separation and absorption membranes
Gas separation membranes rely on differences in physical or chemical interactions between the different substances in a gas mixture and a membrane material that cause on e component to move through the membrane faster than another. A gas separation membrane would allow carbon dioxide gas to pass through while excluding the other parts of the flue gas emitted industrial or power plants (IEA 1993). Gas absorption membranes, on the other hand, simply function as a contact point between flue gas and an absorbing liquid, such as an amine-based solution.
Cryogenic separation
In a cryogenic separation system, CO2 is physically separated from other gases by condensing it into a liquid form at an extremely low temperature. The liquid CO2 produced would immediately ready for transport to the disposal site.
Iron Fertilization of Marine Phytoplankton
Photosynthetic carbon fixation by marine phytoplankton creates 45 Gt of organic carbon per year (Falkowski et al. 1998). While much of this is eaten by sea animals near the surface and ultimately ends up being recycled into the atmosphere, some eventually rains down into the deep ocean as waste and dead organisms. Bacteria feed on this organic carbon and produce CO2, which dissolves while the rest of the detritus ends on the sea floor. The availability of nutrients, particularly iron, is the limiting factor on phytoplankton growth in large parts of the ocean. By depositing iron into the ocean, it may be possible to stimulate phytoplankton growth and hence encourage an increased biological uptake of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, eventually depositing the carbon in the deep oceans for decades or centuries.
Direct Oceanic Injection of CO2
CO2 separated from point sources can be placed directly into the oceans. Methods include using:
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)
EOR is the practice of injecting CO2 gas into depleted underground oil reservoirs in order to displace and recover more oil than would have been possible otherwise. If the pressure is high enough in these formations, the CO2 and oil become completely miscible, leading to highly efficient oil recovery. CO2 flooding of oil fields can actually increase the yield of oil production.
Enhanced Gas Recovery of Coalbed Methane
Methane gas is adsorbed in large quantities onto the surface of coal in large, unmineable coal seams. The current practice for recovering coal bed methane is to depressurize the bed by pumping water out of the reservoir, but another possibility is to inject CO2 gas into the bed. Chemical tests have shown that CO2 adsorbs onto coal twice as much as methane, and it therefore has the potential to efficiently displace methane and remain sequestered in the coalbed.
Injection in Deep Saline Aquifers
Saline aquifers are underground layers fo very porous, permeable sediment filled with brackish, non-potable water. In most instances, such formations are located below freshwater aquifers, with a laywer fo impermeable rock separating the two (Herzong et al. (1997), and if the temperature and pressure of the aquifer are within certain limits, it can be used for carbon sequestration (Hovorka et al. 2000). CO2 is pumped through wells directly into the aquifer. Some of the CO2 will dissolve and react with other dissolved salts to form carbonate minerals that will become permanently fixed as a rock (Rosenbauer 2002), while the rest will remain in the water of the aquifer.
Mineral Carbonation
At point sources, separated CO2 can either be piped somewhere else to be sequestered or converted to another form through chemical processes. Through mineral carbonation, naturally occurring minerals containing magnesium or calcium are reacted with CO2 to form other minerals known as carbonates. The goal of artificial mineral carbonation is to speed up the reaction. CO2 is mixed with slurry of water and reactants, heated and compressed. The product is a stable rock in which CO2 has been chemically transformed and that will remain stable over geologic time periods.
Landfill Gas Recovery (LGR) with CO2 Sequestration
Landfills are a major source of greenhouse gases such as methane and CO2. Landfill gases can be captured and through a cryogenic process, CO2 can be separated from methane. The methane, that would normally escape to the atmosphere, can be used to fuel power plants or be used in other applications. The CO2 can then be sequestered in liquid form.
Other methods of sequestration
Some methods include growing biofuel crops, shifting production to crops that absorb more atmospheric CO2, active forest management to enhance carbon uptakes, and biologically based capture methods.

Artist: William Merritt Chase (American, 1849 - 1916)
Commenting on what he believed to be an identifiably American character, William Merritt Chase maintained: "We are a new people in a new country. Watch the crowds along Picadilly or the Champs Elysées you spot the Americans among them almost as easily as if they wore our flag in their buttonholes. It means that already a new type has appeared, the offspring, as we know, of European stock, but which no longer resembles it."(1) The model Chase portrayed in his painting Memories and the manner in which he presented her provide a visual means of under- standing this "new type," as well as proof of Chase's dexterity and technical skill as a painter.(2)
Unlike the American expatriate painters John Singer Sargent and James McNeill Whistler, with whom Chase's own paintings have often been justifiably compared, Chase decided to return to America after completing his studies abroad in 1878. Once home, he devoted his efforts to painting American subjects and themes—simple urban and country scenes painted in and nearby his homes in New York City and on Long Island. His models, often family, friends, or students, were generally of the upper middle class, like Chase himself. They were prosperous, yet sensible, and Chase depicted them unselfconsciously enjoying leisure moments, either indoors or in the open air. Described by one contemporary writer as a "human camera," Chase captured in a most candid and spontaneous manner the life of genteel America at the turn of the century.(3) As a consummate painter and one of the prime spokesmen for the aesthetic movement in America, he accomplished his task with obvious grace and ease as evidenced in his painting Memories.
The subject for Chase's painting is a young, sensitive, unadorned woman—almost plain when compared to Whistler's ethereal maidens or Sargent's society women. She is more formidable than similar subjects painted by Whistler, and more natural and relaxed in pose when compared to the more formal portraits painted by Sargent, such as his Lady with the Rose (Metropolitan Museum of Art). In his painting Memories Chase has portrayed an intelligent and well-bred individual who can appreciate the aesthetic value of the artwork she holds in her hand, a connoisseur posed in front of a table strewn with similar works of art. Her expression conveys the deep pleasure she derives from this experience; and the title of the painting, Memories, suggests that this experience evokes the remembrance of a similarly pleasurable moment in her life-perhaps a visit to one of the great art museums of Europe, or a visit to a local gallery. By deliberately making the painting suggestive rather than literal, Chase has engaged the viewer to take part in completing the story in his or her own mind.
The image Chase has presented in this work is nostalgic enough to arouse our interest and to evoke a sympathetic response, without being overly sweet or "poetic." The colors he selected and the way in which he used them are equally striking—the palette is limited, but dramatic. Chase contrasted the white of the woman's dress, as well as the prints or drawings on the table and in her hand, against the black background, creating a bold image relieved only by the delicate and lyrical pastel pink of a fan on the table and the golden yellow of what appears to be a shawl also on the tabletop. Foremost in Chase's mind while painting this work was his concern in capturing varying degrees of reflected light—the strong direct light reflected off the objects on the table; the diffused light reflected off the woman's gauzy overskirt; and finally, and most importantly, the backlight illuminating her face and reflected offthe print held in her hand.
Painted in 1885 or 1886, Memories made its debut in Chase's first one-man exhibition held at the Boston Art Club in the fall of 1886. The show was described as "the sensation of the month in art circles."(4) One critic, responding to the figure studies in the exhibition, maintained in "play of light and shade and contrast, he is unsurpassed." The same critic commended Chase for his "seemingly unconscious or accidental grace of line in female costume and making it play a part in revealing the characteristic lines in the wearer's personality." In summary, he declared that Chase was "emphatically of his day and an interpreter of his day in art."(5) It is likely that Memories was one of the works that inspired such favorable and insightful comments; and undoubtedly it was partially responsible for another critic's assessment of this exhibition, "it is upon just such work as this that we can safely base our hopes for art in America."(6)

Freedom is certainly something to celebrate, and rapper Gucci Mane celebrated the one-year anniversary of being released from prison in the only way a musician can: by releasing new music. The Trap God has released a new, 10-track mixtape produced by longtime collaborator Metro Boomin. On Droptopwop, Gucci collaborates with a number of hip-hop stars including Rick Ross, Offset of Migos, as well as 2 Chainz and Young Dolph. You can stream the entire mixtape below.
As Billboard pointed out, Gucci's year of freedom has been wildly successful. His album Everybody Looking was the rapper's first #1 on the Top R&B Hip-Hop Albums chart.

The Ngai Tahu Maori Trust Board : an examination of the strategic use of authoritative resources in the exercise of power. (1991)

In 1946 legislation was passed in the New Zealand parliament which created the body now known as the Ngai Tahu Maori Trust Board. Its function was to administer compensation from the Crown for land purchased in the mid-nineteenth century. In 1990 the Runanga Iwi Act was passed, devolving the functions and responsibilities formerly in the hands of the Maori Affairs Department to tribally-based groups. These groups are referred to as iwi authorities. The Ngai Tahu Maori Trust Board made submissions to the Select Committee in 1989 setting out a new tribal structure for Ngni Tahu which could act also as the Ngal Tahu iwi authority. Anthony Giddens and Michel Foucault supply the theory for this research. An attempt is made to move away from the tendency to view power solely in terms of dialectical relationships with the state. For groups such as the Ngal Tahu Maori Trust Board, power to achieve outcomes does not necessarily emanate from the state. Power in New Zealand society is not superstructural to the state, rather, it underlies all social relations. The state is simply one body which exercises power in relationships of domination with various groups in society. The research adopts categories of authoritative resources supplied by Giddens and uses these to examine the strategies and local forms of power relied on by the Trust Board at a time when the entire Maori population, like other segments of the New Zealand population, is being asked to take on greater responsibility to manage their own affairs. Observations made it clear very early that the Trust Board has developed strategies to achieve outcomes, independent of the state. The pursuit of mana and rangatlratanga for the Ngai Tahu iwi began long before the decision was made to disband the Department of Maori Affairs.

Headquartered at the TNT Express International Road Hub in Arnhem, The Netherlands, the ERN is the most extensive road delivery network in Europe. It enables TNT Express to provide the fastest daily by road door to door customs cleared express delivery transit times throughout Europe with a current on-time departure performance of 99.2%.
When the ERN was first launched in 1978 it served six countries and this number has increased five fold during its 25 year history. In the last 10 years alone, TNT Express has doubled the number of countries served by the ERN which now connects 550 depots in 31 countries through ten major hubs in Benelux, France, Germany, Italy, UK, Ireland, Austria, Switzerland, Eastern Europe, Northern Europe. There are also plans to increase the capacity to serve a further two countries by road by the end of 2004. The 1,600 vehicles in the linehaul fleet perform 10,000 Europe-wide trunk movements and travel approximately 6.3 million kilometres every week.
Christian Drenthen, Managing Director Worldwide Networks said: "We are delighted to be celebrating the 25th birthday of the ERN which continues to go from strength to strength. Whilst our competitors rely on alliances and partnerships to serve customers by road in Europe, TNT customers know that we provide a faster and more reliable service because our fleet, personnel and IT resources are all kept within our own control, which means that their consignments never leave our hands until they are delivered. We look forward to the next 25 years of developing new routes that will help our customers penetrate more new markets."
The TNT Express International Road Hub was opened in October 1998 and is within a two hour drive of the TNT Express European Air Express Hub at Liége in Belgium. Both the hubs lie within the Amsterdam-Paris-Frankfurt triangle which is one of the most industrialised areas in Europe enabling the company to reach two thirds of its European customers within four hours.

However, in the "Library" view, I am missing a couple of albums and some album names are incorrect - they are showing up as the name before the editing. Troubleshooting I've done already (in these exact steps):- Removed all my music (from SD card)- Cleared the phone's cache- Cleared the data from the Poweramp app- Deleted the album art cache- Copied back my music back (to SD card) ==> All to no avail.

She had had quite enough of needing help.
Sure, it was justifiable. Acquiring the interest of very large, very scary things tended to do that. There was a point past which the amount of self-defense training she'd managed to shoehorn in around things that seemed more relevant if she was justifying them to her superiors and more interesting if she was honest with herself—that little time that was left after all her priorities, what she could learn there, it never seemed to be enough. She would make it through with her own skills, her ability to stay hidden and out of trouble. And when that failed, with her wits. And when those failed to keep her safe in the main, they were still usually sufficient to the task of summoning assistance.
Assistance which she could almost hear roll its eyes, are we doing this again? Assistance which would make a point of shielding her from anything, whether she willed it or not, until she would relish the times she came back injured but came back on her own, would make a badge of pride out of the unexpected limp. Such incidents were not permitted if they could be avoided. Special precautions, special conditions, as if she was forbidden from taking the risks even the least of her peers assumed to be a part of their day-to-day lives. If she were in danger, it was truly an emergency. For her to prove otherwise…
…would require far more emergencies than she was willing to wish on anyone, least of all herself. Extra work all around for other people. One needed too many things to be going wrong before they would take a volunteer, anyway.
If she was going to be so protected, she may as well perform a function that deserved it.
There were, she thought, far worse reasons for wanting to begin a career in politics.

The Kreg KHCCC 90° Corner Clamp is the one you'll want to get if you're looking for the best corner clamp on the market. This clamp is versatile enough to work on both 90-degree corners and T-joints, so you can use it to get the job done in a variety of situations. The one-inch capacity makes it a very versatile corner clamp that will work on a variety of different projects. Beyond its steel frame, it also has forged aluminum pads, which are lightweight, but also incredibly strong and durable.
We also really like the cutout in the pads, which allows you to put pocket screws in place without undoing the clamp. This saves you a lot of time.
The one thing that could be better is the cumbersome adjustment. Some wood sizes require a lot of adjustment to get the clamp on tightly, which doesn't always feel like a good use of your time. Still, if you're looking for a corner clamp with versatility and the kind of attention to detail that makes a project easier, get this one.
The wolfcraft 3415405 Right Angle 90 Degree Corner Clamp is another great clamp. One of the best things about it is that it doesn't take a lot of setup. Put the boards in place, tighten the screws, and you'll be good to go. The jaws have a massive, 2.5-inch capacity, so you'll be able to do just about any kind of project you can think of with this clamp. The large capacity makes it good for some custom solutions, like extra-wide picture frames. This clamp also comes with a five-year warranty, so you know the manufacturer is willing to stand behind the product.
This model has a quick-release mechanism, which is both a nice feature and its Achilles heel. It lets you remove the clamp quickly, saving a lot of time, but the mechanism used to tighten it depends on that part. If it ever fails or strips, it will be very difficult to tighten the clamp. Overall, this is a great tool, and if the quick-release mechanism was more consistent, we could easily rank it first. Even with that flaw, it's still something many people will like.
The HORUSDY 90° Right Angle Clamps/Corner Clamp is very much like the previous one on our list. It features a similar, easy-to-use design. Just put the wood in place and turn the screw to tighten. That means very fast operation and limits the amount of time you'll have to spend setting things up. Like the previous clamp, it has a 2.5-inch capacity, which means you'll be able to clamp almost anything at 90 degrees with it. It also has a quick-release mechanism, so you won't have to unscrew it tediously when you're done.
This clamp beats the previous one in one key area: price. You can get it for about 60 percent of what you'd pay for our second-place choice. That price is low enough to earn this clamp the title of best value for the money here. However, the quick-release sometimes fails, and that makes it hard to tighten the clamp. If that problem were resolved, we could see this model rising to the top spot on our list. Even so, it's still a good value buy.
The Can-Do Clamp does a lot well, but it's designed in a way that makes it the best picture frame clamp on our list. Since it uses one part to hold both pieces of wood in place, you can be assured that both are aligned correctly, especially when they're of the same thickness, which is typically the case when you're making a picture frame. It can be mounted to a workbench, so if you're looking for a semi-permanent solution, this corner clamp will meet your specifications. It's also made from aluminum, so it's both lightweight and very strong, which is something you always want in your tools.
This clamp features a T-handle for adjustment. This lets you put extra power in your turning to ensure that you get a good grip on the pieces you're going to be joining. The one thing that hurts this model is that it sometimes leaves red marks on the wood, which is a sign that the paint used is subpar. If you want a mountable corner clamp that excels with picture frames, you'll be hard-pressed to find something better.
The Milescraft 4005 90° CornerClamp is most similar to the top choice on our list, with a few significant differences. It has a 1.25-inch capacity, which makes it just a bit larger in that category than the top model. The swivel head design makes it easier to get it set before you clamp down. It's also far lower-priced than similar clamps, and it's price-competitive with some other designs on our list. The downside to that is that it's made from unknown metal, which means it's something of a gamble when it comes to long-term strength and durability.
Unfortunately, there's no pocket screw notch, so you'll have to wait until the glue dries to add a pocket screw if this clamp covers the spot. The design also makes it tricky to use if your primary goal is to make picture frames. Ultimately, it's going to have to be awkwardly vertically stacked to make that happen, and it's probably not going to work well enough in that area to be worth buying. However, it has other uses, and for the price, it's not a terrible buy.
The Housolution Right Angle Clamp is reminiscent of the fourth-place model on our list. It uses a similar mechanism where it tightens both pieces into place at the same time with a single, centrally located part. That makes it great for picture frames, since it will be easy to align two pieces of the same size with this device. It can be mounted to a workbench, so if you want a permanent or semi-permanent solution, this is the one for you. Plus, this clamp is made from aluminum, which means you get a low-priced, lightweight tool, but can still expect it to be strong and durable.
This clamp doesn't come with a T-handle. If you're going to be using the clamp over a bench, you may like this one's handle better. Otherwise, you may miss the extra tightening power that comes from a T-handle. What ultimately sinks this otherwise great tool is that it costs a lot. It's one of the most expensive clamps, and yet it doesn't provide many superior features. Overall, this is a decent option, and if it were sold at a lower price, more people would be satisfied with it.
The ODELENWA Right Angle Clamp/Corner Clamp fits in the mold of a few others on our list. It comes with the single center mechanism designed to tighten both pieces of wood at the same time. However, the best thing about it may be its price. It's one of the least expensive corner clamps on our list, and that says a lot. Like similar clamps, it's bench-mountable, so you can secure it to your workbench for frequent use or superior clamping. Plus, it's made from aluminum, so you can expect it to be lightweight and last a long time.
However, ODELENWA isn't the easiest company to contact. If you do have a problem with your tool, you may not be able to get it resolved outside of returning it. Something else to note about this model is that it has a slightly smaller clamping range than others with similar designs. If you need a clamp that can work with extra-large pieces, this isn't it. While some people can be happy with this one for the price, there are lots of ways it might go wrong.
The Pro-Grade 59162 Corner Clamp is designed in a way that will make people wonder about the accuracy of its name. It has a lightweight, yet sturdy, aluminum frame that should provide good durability, at least in theory. It also has a wide, three-inch jaw range, which makes it superior in that category to many clamps on our list. However, this corner clamp has one serious flaw, which is that many units ship with deflection problems. This is a tool designed to make great 90-degree angles, so if it can't do that, you have problems. That's a huge red flag that hurts this model's value.
It also doesn't have the best durability. Many users report at least one part that broke, but what breaks tends to vary from unit to unit. That suggests that this clamp is cheaply made. Worse, it struggles to get a grip on thinner materials, which makes it a poor choice for use on picture frames. There's not a ton to like about it, so if you're looking for a great corner clamp, you'd be wise to look elsewhere.
The Kreg KHCCC 90° Corner Clamp is our favorite due to its aluminum pads, cutout for pocket-hole screws, and compatibility with 90-degree corners and T-joints. The wolfcraft 3415405 Right Angle 90 Degree Corner Clamp has a large capacity, a five-year warranty, and a quick-release mechanism, but the latter's inconsistency keeps it out of first. In third, the HORUSDY 90° Right Angle Clamps/Corner Clamp is easy to adjust, and has a large capacity and a quick release. Since you can get it for about half of what you'd shell out for the top options on our list, it's the best value buy here.
The Can-Do Clamp takes fourth place with its aluminum frame, T-handle, and its ability to be mounted. Its occasional wood marks keep it out of the top three. Next is the Milescraft 4005 90° CornerClamp, which comes with a 1.25-inch capacity, a low price, and a swivel head design. However, it lacks a pocket screw notch and can be tricky for picture frames. The Housolution Right Angle Clamp can be mounted to a workbench and is great for picture frames, but it lacks a T-handle and boasts an unjustified high price.
In seventh, the ODELENWA Right Angle Clamp/Corner Clamp is inexpensive, has an aluminum body, and is bench-mountable. Its tricky customer service and slightly smaller range hurt its value. The last place belongs to the Pro-Grade 59162 Corner Clamp. It has an aluminum frame and wide range, but deflection issues, poor durability, and struggles with thinner material make it a bad overall buy.
Hopefully, we've helped you better understand the world of corner clamps, and have led you to the one that will make your next project a breeze.
Note: we also have an overview of the different types of clamps for you to read.
