Our Story
Vancouver 2010 was a watershed for sport in Canada. An overwhelming majority of the population seems to have spontaneously shifted its weight from the back to the front foot. It's cool to win – and cool to be part of Canadian sport. This hard-earned pride deserves to be protected and cherished. It's easy to forget how quickly a nation's sporting reputation can be tarnished. The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport does not forget. In fact, the Centre for Ethics in Sport is nothing less than a focal point and catalyst for the shared conscience of Canadian sport. To be clear, the role of the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport is not to tell sport what to do. Rather, the Centre strives to be a guarantor of an ethical playing field for sport's contestants. In other words, we monitor the rules of ethical engagement and explain the code of conduct and establish the framework for ethical debate around sport. This assumes, as in sport itself, a hard-fought consensus on shared values that allow for meaningful competition to take place. The Centre works to elevate that consensus into a conscience, one that has been centuries in the making, representative of the people of Canada.
Recognizing that Canadians want sport with a conscience, our purpose is to use ethics to remind all those who compete what is at stake; to remind Canada of the sport they want and hold dear.
The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport uses ethical debate to create an environment for meaningful dialogue around the future of sport, based on commonly agreed principles of right and wrong. As the facilitator and elevator of the conscience of Canadian sport, the Centre strives to shape the public consensus of how we should behave when we compete, always recognizing that in a democracy consensus is dynamic. The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport is one authority in Canada who can publicly protect the value system that will give Canadians the sport they want.
This is the world we live in. Our story explains how we got here and paints a picture of where we can go from here.

LONDON: Global demand for energy is placing significant pressure on limited water resources, the 2014 United Nations World Water Development Report acknowledges.
The UNESCO study argues that a failure to treat the energy and water sectors as interdependent will lead to shortages supplies of both. It states that coordination and planning are crucial for the sustainability of both systems.
At present, 768 million people globally do not have access to safe drinking water, and 1.3 billion people are not connected to an electric power grid. The study shows that the areas which suffer from inadequate access to clean water are also poorly serviced by electric power, highlighting how intertwined the two issues are.
The symbiotic nature of the water-energy dilemma is further verified by the fact that collection, transport and treatment of water require energy, while at the same time power technologies use large quantities of water in order to be operational. The UN agency has predicted that by 2035, the amount of water which will be used for energy could reach 20%.
The report recommends that close attention should be given to the water requirements of energy sources when deciding which alternative power methods to prioritize. It notes that while shale gas extraction is now quite popular, the hydraulic fracturing which is necessary for its collection can be a significant drain on water resources and has the potential to contaminate water tables.
Renewable resources, which use much less water, have seen significant growth in recent years. Global consumption of wind and solar energy grew by 27% and 42% between 2000 and 2010 respectively, while hydroelectricity power now meets 16% of energy demand internationally.
However, UNESCO notes that renewable energy often needs to be supplemented by additional power sources which do require more water.
The UN pointed to innovation in waste water treatment in Sweden, which has resulted in buses and taxis now running on bio-gas produced from waste water, as a commendable approach to tackling the universal problem. The researchers believe that the combined production of water and electricity may hold "the key to the future".

I've been wanting to try working with some Spellbinder dies I've had in my stash for over two years. I've just never found a way to incorporate them into a card, and they're too pretty to not use. I've finally come up with an idea that worked....and I absolutely love the result.
Here's my card:
I used dimensional foam on the flowers and the embossed cardstock so the card has a lot of dimension to it (you might not see it too well on the photos though).
So that's my latest creation. Thanks for stopping by. I hope you're having a great summer! :)

Tangy Chicken
Tangy Chicken
6 Chicken Breasts, boneless, skinless
3/4cup Red Wine Vinegar
3/4cup White Wine Vinegar
1 1/4cup Basil Leaves
Combine the vinegars in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and add the basil leaves. Allow to cool. Pour this mixture over the chicken breasts and allow the chicken to marinate for 30 minutes. Prepare the vegetables and sauce during this time. Remove chicken from marinade and brown well on each side. Finish cooking in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 8 minutes. Let the chicken rest about 10 minutes. Slice each chicken breast at an angle into about 4 slices. Place a large spoon full of vegetables on each plate and fan the chicken on top of the vegetables. Drizzle the sabayon over the chicken and serve.
24 Asparagus spears
2 cup Fava beans (can substitute Lima Beans)
¼ cup Capers, rinsed
Slice the asparagus diagonally into 2 inch pieces. Heat a sauté pan over medium and cook the asparagus and fava beans in olive oil until hot and tender, about 5 minutes. Add the capers and cook 1 minute longer.
Shallot Sabayon
1 Shallot, minced
1 ½ cup Sauvignon Blanc
2 Egg Yolks
1/3 cup Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
To prepare the sabayon, combine the shallot and 1 cup of the wine in a sauce pan. Cook until the wine is almost evaporated. Scrape this into a bowl and add the remaining wine, egg yolks, and olive oil. Place the bowl over medium heat, and whisk constantly until thickened and velvety. About 3 minutes. Adjust with salt and pepper.

MAC Release
CLEVELAND -- The Ohio baseball team placed eight student-athletes on the 2018 Academic All-Mid-American Conference Team -- redshirt senior right-handed pitcher Cory Blessing (Mayfield, Ohio), senior infielder Tony Giannini (Carmel, Ind.), redshirt junior right-handed pitcher Nick Kamrada (Grand Ledge, Mich.), redshirt senior designated hitter/right-handed pitcher Michael Klein (Highlands Ranch, Colo.), redshirt freshman catcher Dan McCauley (Pittsburgh, Pa.), redshirt senior right-handed pitcher Jake Roehn (Sandwich, Ill.), junior infielder Rudy Rott(Holmen, Wis.) and redshirt senior left-handed pitcher Gerry Salisbury (Brunswick, Ohio) -- as announced by the league office on Thursday (June 14).
The Academic All-MAC honor is for a student-athlete who has excelled in athletics and academics. To qualify, a student-athlete must have at least a 3.20 cumulative GPA and have participated in at least 50 percent of the contests for that particular sport.
Ohio tied Central Michigan, Toledo and Western Michigan for the second-most selections in the conference with eight.
Giannini received recognition for the third year in a row while Blessing, Kamrada, Klein and Rott all earned honors for a second-straight year. McCauley, Roehn and Salisbury all received Academic All-MAC recognition for the first time in their careers.
Pursuing a Coaching Education degree with a 3.282 GPA, Blessing led Ohio's pitching staff with a career-high 28 appearances on the mound, which ranked as the second-most in the MAC. He ranked second on the squad in strikeouts (42), third in ERA (3.35) and fourth in innings pitched (48.1), setting a career high in innings pitched.
A Marketing major with a 3.365 GPA, Giannini started all 53 games to set a career high. He ranked second on the team with a career-high 52 hits, tied for third with a career-high 11 doubles, tied for fourth with a career-high four home runs and ranked fourth in slugging percentage (.380). His .250 batting averaged marked a career high. He ranked fourth on the team with 12 multi-hit games.
A Pre-Exercise Physiology major with a 3.400 GPA, Kamrada ranked third on the pitching staff with a career-high 26 appearances on the mound. His 2.70 ERA ranked as the second-best on the squad. He set a career high with 26.2 innings pitched and tied his career high with 13 strikeouts.
A Finance major with a 3.372 GPA, Klein started 40 of the 42 games he played in, serving primarily as designated hitter. He also started 12 of the 14 games he appeared in on the mound. He ranked second on the team with a .364 on-base percentage and 29 RBIs, tied for fourth with four home runs and ranked fifth with a .365 slugging percentage. He also ranked second on the team with 53.0 innings pitched. Klein was named MAC Male Scholar Athlete of the Week for the week of April 16-23.
A Finance major with a 3.410 GPA, McCauley started 25 of the 33 games he played in, tallying 17 hits – including two home runs.
Pursuing a Coaching Education degree with a 3.501 GPA, Roehn made 25 appearances on the mound to rank fourth on the Ohio pitching staff. He tied for the MAC lead with seven saves and ranked fifth on the squad with 31 strikeouts. A 2018 Collegiate Baseball Preseason Third Team All-American, Roehn finished his time at Ohio with a school-record 29 career saves over the last three years.
A Sport Management major with a 3.546 GPA, Rott was named the 2018 MAC Player of the Year and earned spots on both the All-MAC First Team and All-MAC Defensive Team. He joined Marc Krauss (2009) and Mitch Longo (2015) as the only Bobcats to receive the MAC Player of the Year award. Rott led Ohio in batting average (.355), slugging percentage (.654), on-base percentage (.440), hits (76), doubles (15), home runs (15), walks (30), RBIs (50) and runs scored (48) in 2018, setting or tying career highs in every category. He also tied for the team lead with two triples. Rott tied for the MAC lead in hits and home runs and ranked second in slugging percentage and RBIs, third in batting average and fifth in runs scored. His 140 total bases were good for a conference-high, ranked 17th in the nation and tied him for the 10th-most in a single season in Ohio history. He led Ohio with 24 multi-hit games -- including a team-high eight with at least three hits -- and also led the Bobcats with 15 multi-RBI games. Defensively, Rott posted a .996 fielding percentage and led Ohio with 467 putouts. He committed just two errors on the season and ranked fourth on the squad with 25 assists and was a part of 47 double plays. In conference play, Rott sported a team-best .333 batting average, a team-best .620 slugging percentage and a team-best .498 on-base percentage. He tallied a team-high 36 hits in league games -- including a team-high eight doubles and seven home runs -- to go along with a team-high 27 RBIs and 24 runs scored. Rott earned MAC Player of the Week honors for the first time in his career on May 14 as well as being named one of Collegiate Baseball Newspaper's National Players of the Week after leading the Bobcats in batting average (.444), slugging percentage (1.111), hits (8), home runs (4), RBIs (9), runs scored (8) and home runs (4) the previous week. The honors capped off a stretch in which Rott homered seven times over seven games – including going deep in four-straight games.
Pursuing a Coaching Education degree with a 3.418 GPA, Salisbury made a team-high 14 starts on the mound for the Ohio pitching staff and tied for the team lead with four pitching victories. He also led the team with 82 innings pitched and 60 strikeouts. Salisbury garnered MAC Pitcher of the Week honors for the first time in his career on April 2 after striking out a career-high 11 and allowing just four hits, no walks and no earned runs over seven innings in a 6-1 win over Northern Illinois on March 31 at Bob Wren Stadium.

Once the lawsuit is filed in a personal injury case, both sides engage in the legal process called discovery. Each party is allowed to investigate what it is the other side is going to try to prove or establish at trial.In discovery, the defendant will be permitted to access medical and work history, including your your income records. The attorneys at Donahoe Kearney have devised a list of mistakes that will CRUSH your case.
The client is referred by the lawyer to a doctor or chiropractor
You want a doctor with your best interests at heart, who will offer you the best medical care and treatment your condition requires, not just one dependent on your lawyer because of a referral relationship.
You may have a very special need for a doctor with a special expertise. It is perfectly legitimate for the attorney to make that suggestion/recommendation. But it should be based on other clients' recommendations who have had similar injuries or medical conditions. If every client, though, is getting referred to the same chiropractor or the same orthopedist, then that is a huge problem. (So beware of the attorney who has a stack of doctor/chiropractor in the office. You need to ask the right questions and fully understand the relationship between that attorney and the doctor.)
Hiding past accidents from your lawyer
Once you begin your case, the other side will be interested in knowing how many past accidents you have been in. The reality is that they probably already know the answer or have easy access to that information.
If you have been in other accidents, your lawyer can investigate this and make a determination as to whether this is a valid problem in your case or not. If you do not tell your lawyer, however, and you misrepresent your accident history to the insurance company, then it is almost guaranteed that you will lose your case.
Hiding other injuries
It goes without saying that you should be upfront and honest with your attorney about any injuries that occurred before or after this accident. Again, if you saw a doctor or other healthcare provider, then there is a record in existence that the insurance company will find.
If your doctor keeps "two sets of records" because he's been treating you for years for another injury you never told your lawyer about, how will that doctor look in front of the jury? Like he's hiding something. And who will you look?
We've represented a lot of hardworking people of the years. Some jobs are more dangerous and risky than others. For example, we've represented union workers with several construction site accidents over their career--those are heavy duty, physically demanding jobs. As long as we know about it, we can deal with it.
But if you're not honest with us, we fire you. Simple as that.
Not having accurate tax returns
In almost every case, someone will have lost income because of the accident. You will only be able to claim that lost income if your past tax returns are accurate and honest. You do not want to risk going to jail by claiming a loss of income, only to have your past tax returns not back your claim.
Misrepresenting your activity level
Insurance companies routinely hire private investigators to conduct videotape surveillance. Now, they also troll YouTube, Facebook, and other social networking sites or "Goggle" you. If you claim that you cannot run, climb or stoop, and you get caught on videotape or brag about break dancing on the Internet, you can forget about your claim. There is no explanation (other than "you got my brother or sister, not me") that can overcome the eye of the camera.
The good news? These 5 mistakes and many other are completely preventable.

2015 Bmw Activehybrid 5
Home >> 2015 >> Bmw >> Activehybrid 5
How many miles per gallon does a 2015 Bmw Activehybrid 5 get?
A 2015 Bmw Activehybrid 5 gets up to 23 miles per gallon in the city, up to 30 miles per gallon on the highway. This means a 2015 Bmw Activehybrid 5 can get up to 26 miles per gallon overall.
* The estimates are based on the assumptions that you travel 15,000 miles per year (55% under city driving conditions and 45% under highway conditions) and that fuel costs $2.224/gallon for regular unleaded gasoline, $2.724/gallon for premium and $2.362/gallon for diesel.
(All amounts in USD. Costs updated on October 3, 2016 from AAA Fuel Gauge Report)
^ E85 prices cannot be accurately calculated, therefore they are based on the price of Regular gasoline.

Resilience is the means by which, for example, children from troubled families are not immobilized by hardship but rebound from it. They learn to protect themselves and emerge as strong adults who are able to lead gratifying lives. The groundbreaking resilience research of sociologist Emmy Werner, Ph.D., of the University of California, showed that even during early life about a third of these kids never seem to be affected by the grinding poverty, alcoholism, and abuse in the homes in which they are raised. Of the remaining two-thirds, many are troubled as teens, typically turning to petty crime. But by the time they reach their 30s and 40s, they have pulled themselves together, determined not to repeat their parents' lives.
A troubled family can indeed inflict considerable harm on its children, but resilient people are challenged by such troubles to experiment and respond actively and creatively. Their preemptive responses to adversity, repeated over time, become incorporated into their inner selves as lasting strengths.

Will NASCAR Go Ethanol?
"I think the global-warming thing, and all the things that are written about that, a lot more people are aware of the fact that we do need to do something." Quick quiz. Did this quote come from A) a member of the TreeHugger staff B) musician Jack Johnson or C) NASCAR driver Kyle Petty? If you chose C, you probably read this post's title. Or, you might have read this Time article outlining NASCAR's potential to change many American's perception of alternative fuels. The article quotes both Petty and fellow NASCAR driver Jeff Burton as saying that the potential of the sport's marketing power could change the perception of ethanol as a fringe fuel for "that guy with the Volkswagen van that runs off of whatever," to a mainstreamed homegrown alternative. Although NASCAR is a running late to the ethanol party, it is possible (as others have said before) that their move into alternative fuel could prove to be the tipping point.

Yeah, a little early I know but around here Spring arrives pretty early in the year. We have had a horrid week…tummy bug. From Hades. I had the kids to the pediatrician on Friday for sinus stuff…I suppose we picked the little gem up there. OH MY. Ben started Sunday, then I joined him Monday night. I didnt get out of bed yesterday except to go to the bathroom. I ran a 102.9 fever for several hours yesterday and finally Hannah force fed me a couple of extra strength tylenol. I was so sick I was afraid to put anything in my stomach. But my fever broke last night just in time to start taking care of Rachel. She has had a horrible night. Hopefully she will be much better today.
I am actually drinking a little black coffee to ward off the caffeine monster that lives in my brain. He was using both fists on my skull this morning as it had been way too long between his doses. I am feeling a little less punk (one of my dad's terms for not feeling well).
When I talked to Husband last night he told me to be sure and get everyone well before he arrived back at the house tomorrow. Tall orders. I usually try to prepare him a really good meal the night he comes home but I cant even think about food right now.
Later on today when my tummy isnt quite so spongy I will type up a recipe for today…and post a picture of an apron my mom gave me a week or so ago. One she embroidered when she was just a little girl. How wonderful is that???

Measurement and modeling of in-cylinder heat transfer with inflow-produced turbulence
Cantelmi, Frank Joseph
MetadataShow full item record
In-cylinder heat transfer is important to the performance of many reciprocating energy conversion machines. It is particularly important to the performance of Stirling machines. For cylinder spaces without inflow, heat transfer and related power losses can be predicted using an analytical model which neglects turbulence. In actual engine cylinders, where significant turbulence levels can be generated by high velocity inflow, a model which neglects inflow may not be adequate. Several models have been proposed for in-cylinder heat transfer with inflow-produced turbulence. Existing models are based on the assumption that turbulence levels remain constant over the cycle. In the current work, experiments were performed to measure the effects of inflow produced turbulence on in-cylinder heat transfer. Experiments were conducted for two different inflow configurations. These experiments have shown that turbulence levels can change significantly over the course of the cycle, invalidating one of the major assumptions common to existing models. In response to the experimental results, a new model was proposed to predict the effects of variations in the turbulence level throughout the cycle. Based on the I-D energy equation, it extends an existing heat transfer model by replacing the laminar thermal conductivity with a time varying effective turbulent thermal conductivity. The varying component of the effective thermal conductivity is assumed to be small relative to the mean component, allowing the use of a perturbation method. Two Nusselt numbers were formulated based on the model results. The first was a complex valued Nusselt number. Previous work had demonstrated that a constant complex Nusselt number could effectively predict heat transfer throughout the cycle in cylinder spaces without inflow. For cylinders with inflow, the current model predicts a complex Nusselt number that varies over the cycle. The second Nusselt number was formed using the steady components of the second order temperature profiles. F or this steady Nusselt number, including the effects of thermal conductivity variations throughout the cycle resulted in a heat transfer coefficient that was larger than that predicted using a mean effective conductivity alone.

This is a nice movie, based on a true story, which revolves around the whaling issue. I recommend it. This scene is great to talk about that specific topic and environmental discussions.
I. Read this information about whaling.
Whaling is the hunting of whales primarily for meat and oil. As technology increased and demand for the resources remained, catches far exceeded the sustainable limit for whale stocks.While the moratorium has been successful in averting the extinction of whale species due to over hunting, contemporary whaling is subject to intense debate. Pro-whaling countries, notably Japan, wish to lift the ban on stocks that they claim have recovered sufficiently to sustain limited hunting. Anti-whaling countries and environmental groups say whale species remain vulnerable and that whaling is immoral, unsustainable, and should remain banned permanently. The whaling controversy is the international environmental and ethical debate over whale hunting. The debate has focused on issues of sustainability and conservation as well as ownership and national sovereignty. Also raised in debates is the question of cetacean intelligence and the level of suffering which the animals undergo when caught and killed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whaling_controversy
II. Talk to a partner:
1. What's your opinion about whale hunting? Should it be allowed or prohibited? Why?
2. Would you change your mind if you knew that entire communities would starve to death if whale hunting were prohibited?
3. Would you change your mind if you knew that the amount of suffering is enormous?
4. Would you change your mind if the species of the whale was endangered? What if it was not?
5. What is your solution for this controversy?
III. Watch the movie segment and answer these questions:
1. What is being discussed during the meeting?
2. What is the environmentalist's point of view?
3. What is the local community's point of view?
4. What was the final decision?
5. Do you agree with the decision? What might the consequences of the decision be?
6. Who is right and who is wrong? Explain it.

"Tradition ist nicht die Anbetung der Asche, sondern die Bewahrung und das Weiterreichen des Feuers" - Gustav Mahler
Tuesday, 29 December 2009
January brings London back to life
New brooms sweep clean so chimney sweeps bring good luck. To switch metaphors, what an oasis January will be after the desert of December.
András Schiff will be bringing good cheer to the Wigmore Hall with his new series, where he'll be blending songs for voice with songs for piano. He does real "intelligent programming" so look at his selections and drool even if you can't get there. First off on 6th January, he's playing Mendelssohn, Schumann and early Mahler with Juliane Banse.
On Sunday 10th, Peter Schreier will be conducting Bach at the Royal Academy of Music. Modern instruments but Schreier's brilliant. He's been conducting RAM students for years, and he's well loved. Needless to say, it's sold out but lucky me, I've got a ticket. Many tickets still available for Brecht songs on the 12th - not Schreier singing though. He retired gracefully a few years ago, while still relatively in his prime. OTOH Brecht isn't difficult so he probably "could" sing at a pinch, though he evidently has more sense.
On 12th and 14th, though, the big draw will be Strauss's Elektra in a concert performance at the Barbican. Gergiev conducts and a good line-up - Jeanne-Michele Charbonnet, Felicity Palmer, Angela Denoke, Matthias Goerne, Ian Storey. Also on at the same time, Melvyn Tan and the Škampa at the Wigmore Hall, and also Sholto Kynoch there, too.
The biggest feature for me though will be the Hans Werner Henze Total Immersion at the Barbican on 16th-17th. This is the first big retrospective since the South Bank Henze series 10 years ago. Oliver Knussen will be conducting Symphony no 4 and the UK premiere of Elogium musicum, after an afternoon that includes Voices and two films. The Barbican doesn't name the speaker for the talk, which is ominous as if they'd got anyone good he'd be advertised. These days pre-concert talks are becoming a bad joke, a platform for those who know nothing about the subject to show off about themselves, antagonizing genuine listeners. Sit strategically near the door.
Absolutely unmissable though will be opera, Phaedra, for which I booked as soon as tickets were available last year so as not to miss it. Almost the same cast as the Berlin premiere which I attended, which I'll write about closer to the time. Ensemble Modern hardly ever come to UK anymore, so that in itself is a draw. It's an amazingly powerful work, quite hard to take it's so intense, but Henze always confounds.
More clashes, as on the 16th the South Bank kicks back in action with Jurowski conducting Shostakovich. At the Wigmore Hall, the Nash Ensemble has an interesting French programme followed by Raphael Wallfisch next day. AND two concerts of opera and early music (Mingardo and Borsi) Luckily no clash with Netrebko and Hvorotovsky in recital at RFH on the 18th. The rest of the month is just as busy, so I'll write about that later.
