FERC Permits Transmission-Only Public Power Entity to Use Same Formula Rate for Future Transmission Projects in Different PJM Zones Based on Cash-Flow Method
By Meghan Mandel & Miles Kiger on April 2, 2019
Posted in Transmission
On March 26, 2019, FERC accepted, subject to condition, AMP Transmission, LLC's ("AMP") proposed formula rate template and implementation protocols (collectively, "Formula Rate") to recover a revenue requirement based on a cash-flow method for AMP's integrated transmission facilities located in the PJM Interconnection, L.L.C. ("PJM") region. As a minor condition of acceptance, FERC directed AMP to revise on compliance its Formula Rate to enable AMP to use it in PJM transmission zones that require different rate years, as opposed to only in zones whose rate year is based on the calendar year.…
FERC Issues Notice of Inquiry on Transmission Incentives
By Miriam Archibong & Adrienne Thompson on March 27, 2019
Posted in Rulemakings, Transmission
On March 21, 2019, the same day FERC issued an inquiry into Return on Equity ("ROE") policies (see here), FERC also published another Notice of Inquiry ("NOI") seeking comments on the scope and implementation of its electric transmission incentives policy and regulations. The NOI covers a broad range of topics from using incentives to encourage new technology integration to unlocking location constrained resources and addressing resiliency concerns. Initial comments are due 90 days after the NOI is published in the Federal Register, with reply comments due 30 days thereafter.
Missouri Public Service Commission Grants Certificate of Convenience and Necessity to Grain Belt Express Transmission Line
By Katherine O'Konski & Elizabeth McCormick on March 27, 2019
On March 20, 2019 the Missouri Public Service Commission ("MPSC") granted a certificate of convenience and necessity ("CCN") to Grain Belt Express Clean Line LLC ("Grain Belt") for a $2.35 billion, 780-mile, 600 kV transmission line that is planned to deliver wind-generated electricity from western Kansas to customers in both MISO and PJM. While the MPSC previously denied Grain Belt's application for a CCN in a 2015 decision that cited burdens to affected landowners, its March 20 order concludes that "the broad economic, environmental, and other benefits of the Project to the entire state of Missouri outweigh the interests of the individual landowners," whose concerns would be "addressed through carefully considered conditions placed on the CCN."…
FERC Issues Notice of Inquiry on ROE Policy
By Meghan Mandel & Miles Kiger on March 27, 2019
Posted in Market Policy, Natural Gas, Rulemakings, Transmission
On March 21, 2019, FERC issued a Notice of Inquiry ("NOI") seeking information regarding whether and how to revise its policy for determining the rate of return on equity ("ROE") used in setting rates charged by jurisdictional public utilities. The NOI also seeks comment on whether any changes to the Commission's ROE policies for public utilities should be applied to interstate natural gas and oil pipelines. Specifically, the NOI requests information in eight areas: (1) the role of FERC's base ROE in investment decision-making and what objectives should guide the Commission's approach; (2) whether uniform application of FERC's base ROE policy across the electric, interstate natural gas pipeline and oil pipeline industries is appropriate and advisable; (3) performance of the discounted cash flow ("DCF") model; (4) proxy groups; (5) the choice of financial model(s) used; (6) the mismatch between market-based ROE determinations and book-value rate base; (7) how FERC determines whether an existing ROE is unjust and unreasonable under the first prong of Federal Power Act section 206; and (8) model mechanics and implementation.…
Summary & Insight: Federal Policy Inquiry on Electric Transmission Incentives
By Clifford S. Sikora & William R. Derasmo on March 25, 2019
At a time of significant industry transformation driven by technological change and spurred on by environmental policy concerns, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC" or "Commission") has now added a significant layer to the stack of policy debates – the future of transmission investment. Many states have seized the initiative in terms of establishing preferable resource mixes for in-state customers, and are spearheading significant pushes for greater renewable and storage resource deployment. FERC has now joined the fray by opening up the policy debate anew regarding how to spur (or whether to spur) additional transmission sector investment. The FERC order described below focuses on regulatory and market rules impacting transmission investment (Docket No. PL19-3-000). The agency also opened a companion docket requesting comments on the details of its policies regarding establishment of a public utility transmission owner's stated return on equity ("ROE") (Docket No. PL19-4-000). The Washington Energy Report will provide detailed summaries of these orders via our blog. FERC's mention here of "an increased emphasis on the reliability of transmission infrastructure" (emphasis added) could signal an attempt to re-focus the U.S. Department of Energy's resiliency concerns to an arena that gives FERC home-field advantage. Lest the states forget, FERC controls the price of admission for a ticket to the interstate transmission network, and this open-ended fact-finding effort bears a high likelihood of impacting the price of such tickets (for a large portion of the continental United States).…
FERC Issues Rare Denial of Proposed Transmission Line Acquisition
By Miriam Archibong & Elizabeth McCormick on March 13, 2019
On March 6, 2019, FERC denied GridLiance GP, LLC's ("GridLiance") proposal ("Proposed Transaction") to acquire from People's Electric Cooperative certain transmission lines and related facilities ("Assets"). In its order, FERC concluded that GridLiance failed to demonstrate that the benefits of its ownership of the facilities would offset the rate increases that GridLiance acknowledged would result from the Proposed Transaction. However, because FERC denied the proposal without prejudice, GridLiance can make a new filing that, according to FERC "proposes adequate ratepayer protection and demonstrates specific additional benefits to offset a rate increase."
FERC Reverses Decision Permitting Retroactive Adjustments for SPP Network Upgrades
By Sidney Villanueva & Adrienne Thompson on March 13, 2019
On February 28, 2019, following a July 2018 voluntary remand order from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ("D.C. Circuit"), FERC reversed tariff waivers it previously granted to the Southwest Power Pool, Inc. ("SPP") regarding customer crediting payments for certain network upgrades. FERC had granted a waiver of the one-year time bar for billing adjustments in SPP's tariff so that SPP could retroactively reimburse transmission customers for qualifying network upgrade payments. In its order on voluntary remand ("Remand Order") however, FERC concluded that granting such a waiver would violate the filed rate doctrine. As such, FERC directed the SPP to provide refunds and interest to affected transmission customers.…
FERC Revises and Clarifies Order No. 845 Large Generator Interconnection Reforms
By Sidney Villanueva & Adrienne Thompson on February 27, 2019
On February 21, 2019, FERC issued an order ("Order No. 845-A") granting in part and denying in part various requests for rehearing and clarification of its determinations in Order No. 845. In Order No. 845, FERC revised its interconnection rules for large generators, i.e., generators with capacities greater than 20 MW. Although the requests for rehearing asked FERC to reconsider all but one of the Order No. 845 reforms, Order No. 845-A effectively leaves the major reforms intact, and focuses in large part on explaining FERC's intentions as to how the new rules should work. Compliance filings in response to both Order Nos. 845 and 845-A are due May 22, 2019.…
FERC Approves Changes to NYISO Transmission Planning Process

On February 8, 2019, FERC approved nine revisions to the New York Independent System Operator, Inc. ("NYISO") Tariff addressing its Public Policy Transmission Planning Process. While the changes mainly provide additional process and transparency to NYISO's existing procedures, NYISO also removed the requirement that the New York Public Service Commission ("New York Commission") issue an order confirming the transmission need before NYISO can move forward with its planning process.…

At this point the system hangs. I have disconnected all devices at various times and the bios recognizes when the boot drive is not available. (during post) It never gets anywhere after the verifying message. I realize this is a hardware error. Where do i go from here. Any suggestions.
You may try updating the bios. Make sure you download the correct bios and do a backup of your current bios version before you update with the new version.
Important!! You must make sure that you download the correct bios version or your motherboard will become useless.

Salvation from Crapware
You'll know from reading this blog that I thought Sony and Polyphony did an appalling job with Gran Turismo 5 for the PS3. It was so bad that I've since actually gone out and bought an Xbox360 just so I could play Forza Motorsport 3 instead. And let me tell you it was worth every cent. If you're frustrated with the abject failure of Gran Turismo 5, I urge you to do the same.
The two biggest flaws in GT5 are the dumb-as-a-box-of-rocks AI (which incidentally doesn't get any better as your driver experience level climbs), and the comically stupid "crash damage" (which also doesn't get any better as the game progresses).
In Forza 3, the crash damage can be set to off, cosmetic, or full. Cosmetic has no effect other than ruining how the car looks. Full damage means that you get heavily punished for driving like a dick. Radiators leak, engines and transmissions get broken, suspension collapses, steering pulls one way or the other - it's a joy, and it's a massive incentive to learn to drive the courses and cars properly.
The other issue - AI - is so far ahead in Forza 3 compared to GT5 that it's impossible to make a true comparison. It would be like a drag race between a McLaren F1 car and a 3-year-old pushing a stroller. I discovered everything I needed to know about Forza's AI in one race; in the third corner, I just had a nose ahead on the car next to me. In GT5, that's a disaster because the driving-on-rails AI would simply turn into you and run you off the track. In Forza, the car next to me altered its line and braked to tuck in behind me. Then four corners later, the two cars in front of me got into some sort of argument about track position, with the inside car sliding into the outside car, and the outside car retaliating. End result? The both crashed, the rear bumper got torn off one of them and I ran over it, damaging my transmission.
There were other things too. Sure Forza runs a lower resolution than GT5 but it doesn't have graphical pop-up. The shading doesn't suddenly change on the other cars. The shadows look great. The tracks have more variety in them. You have massive car customisation options - from custom vinyl and paintwork to infinite tuning of gearboxes and suspension. And unlike GT5 where you can simply win every race by slamming the best of everything into a car, Forza imposes car classes meaning you have to choose very carefully what you put into your car to keep it within the class restrictions but make it competitive. Especially in online racing.
For me, Forza has proven itself to be superior to GT5 in every realm. I urge you to buy it if you haven't already. You'll be amazed at how much more fun and less clinical it is to play than GT5.

Marburg is located between the metropolis of Frankfurt and Kassel, home of the documenta exhibition of contemporary art. It has an historical old town and a university dating back almost 500 years. The town on the River Lahn and the surrounding area have a lot to offer, which we will show you!
Did you know that a quarter of all Marburg inhabitants study at Philipp University like you do? That makes it easier for you to settle in. At the beginning of each semester, we invite you to a welcome meeting so that you as DAAD scholarship holders can get to know one another right at the beginning of your studies.
We meet in a traditional café offering a panoramic view high above the River Lahn in Marburg old town with its many beautiful half-timbered houses. What else is on the programme? For example, we visit the big collection of sculptures in the Archaeology Department at the University of Marburg to marvel at the plaster casts of antique statues.
We also make trips to the nearby area and further afield: for example, to Licher Privatbrauerei, a private brewery located in Lich, or to Kassel, Mainz and Frankfurt, where we visit the famous zoo or go to a Christmas concert in the old opera house. One thing is for sure: we always have fun together!

Mercedes expect strong performance in Singapore
2022 Italian Grand Prix, Sunday - Steve Etherington. Credits: Mercedes.
Mercedes technical director Mike Elliott stated that the Marina Bay Street Circuit should suit the W13 car.
Mercedes have had to deal with porpoising and performance swings throughout the season which affected their results in 2022. Nevertheless, the Silver Arrows are optimistic ahead of the Singapore GP.
"I think when you look back at the learning we've gathered over the season, we can expect Singapore to be a bit more like we've seen in Budapest and Zandvoort," Elliott said.
"It's a bumpy circuit which is going to provide its challenges, but in terms of the nature of the corners, we think it will be a bit better for our car, so hopefully we'll have a good result there.
"As always, we'll do all the pre-simulation work we need to do, we'll maximize our learning in the practice sessions, and hopefully we can turn that into a good result over the weekend."

The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) announced this week that it had fined 12 hospitals a total of $775,000 for incidents, and like the list released last February, it included safety violations that resulted in serious injury and death.
Fines ranging from $50,000 to $100,000 were meted out to medical centers in nine counties for incidents including the improper administering of medication tubes, surgical materials left behind in a patient and a burned baby.
Some of the cases are old—one dates back to 2011—but have only recently been closed.

It Looks Like 'Stranger Things' Star Millie Bobby Brown Is Going To Be In Marvel's 'The Eternals'
Alfie Powell in Entertainment, Film
Boy, we all love The Eternals, don't we?! Can't get enough of those guys…
The upcoming 2020 film The Eternals was a bit of a shock when it was announced, since not many people knew anything about it, but that's pretty much the same way everyone felt before Guardians of the Galaxy was released.
The story follows a group of genetic experiments on humans from millions of years ago who were intended to be the defenders of Earth. They were created by the celestials (who got a shout out in Guardians of the Galaxy) but conversely, the Deviants were also created.
Subsequently, the Eternals and the Deviants have essentially battled it out ever since creation. What an existence, eh?
No-one really knows what to expect from the film, except from the news that Disney are looking to cast their first openly gay lead in it. Basically, one of these Eternals is gay, and Marvel are looking for someone to play him.
The studio is said to be searching for an actor who "physically looks like a superhero" between the ages of 30 and 49. And while no preference over ethnicity has been stated, apparently Marvel would rather hire a gay actor for the role.
As for other people in the film though, Oscar-winning actor Angelina Jolie is reportedly in, along with Kumail Nanjiani and Richard Madden.
But that's not what we're here for. We're here to talk about 15-year-old Stranger Things actor Millie Bobby Brown, and how most signs are pointing to her being part of the upcoming cast.
Now, nothing's set in stone as Marvel are famously tight-lipped (so long as Mark Ruffalo or Tom Holland aren't involved), but Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige is expected to announce the Eternals film officially at next weekend's San Diego Comic Con.
With all of that said, at a premier for Godzilla: King of Monsters, Brown was asked whether or not she was going to join the MCU by a reporter who clearly had no idea what they were talking about ("are you going to be in The Eternal..? It's a new show coming out?"), and she replied saying she didn't know what that was…

Portfolio About Me Contact
iOS Widgets
iOS widgets for financial institution.
Lead UX/UI Designer. In charge of designing user experience and UI elements
Widgets display content without login into the app. In iOS and iPadOS, the widget gallery also supports widget stacks, including a Smart Stack. A stack contains up to 10 same-size widgets; people view one widget at a time by scrolling through the stack. A Smart Stack automatically rotates through the stack of widgets, displaying the widget most likely to be relevant in the current context. Smart Stacks aren't available on the Lock Screen on iPhone and iPad.
Look for a simple idea that's clearly related to your app's main purpose. In each size, display only the information that's directly related to the widget's main purpose. In larger widgets, you can display more data — or more detailed visualizations of the data — but it's crucial to stay focused on the widget's purpose.
Avoid creating a widget that only launches your app. People appreciate widgets because they provide instant access to meaningful content. Opt for dynamic information that changes throughout the day. If a widget content never appears to change, people may not keep it in a prominent position. Although widgets update from minute to minute, it's important to find ways to keep their content fresh to invite frequent viewing.
Widgets come in different sizes and I provided design for small, medium , large and extra large which at the time where the sizes provided from apple.
For the project that I worked on the organization had the desired to update the financial iOS widgets to match the then new iOS 14 widgets design. At the time of the ask there was very small information on these widgets as they had just being released in the OS.
For the organization it was important that their users had quick access to their products and still maintain a sense of security as the data provided would be personal financial information. At the same time it was important to maintain brand representation while keeping up with industry trends and be easily recognizable.
The work also consisted in providing guidance to the developers on how to create the editing environment where and how would they ask the user to choose what products to select to showcase in their widget.
The first thing was to gather as much information as possible on what widgets are and how they are used, look at the guidelines provided by apple and start ideating on what type of data to show and how to provide and interesting visual treatment.
It is important to note that when widgets changed not only did the front end changed but the way that they are implemented also changed significantly so collaborating with native developers was important on a daily basis.
Collaborating with other designers I facilitated sessions where we would do rapid designs and then present, critique work and then take changes back to create more defined designs. While still creating designs I would work along side developer and business partners to make sure our designs where inside of technical possibilities and meeting business goals.
Prototype-User Testing
Using a simple click through prototype, we gathered some user feedback utilizing a class while collaborating with a professor where we were able to see how students will interact with the app. In the testing we ran through a list of tasks to see if any issues arose.
From the initial user feedback we made changes and adjusted some of the interactions that were difficult for users.
I was on point for updating everyone at all stages of the work and keep this work flowing. From the technical stand point I made sure we met at least biweekly and as needed when new information would surface from the developers research.
Widgets are a complex component that has many small interactions and since the organization has not created a language system for these I was in charge of making sure we had covered any and all possible situations and make sure we had UI and UX elements to provide to developers to implement
Starting by looking at how data is imported into the component and making a list of all possible scenarios, then consulting with technical parters to make sure we meet all requirements was essential before delivering a final design. For this project research was not needed as we collectively decided to use production to collect data and there is a future plan to test and grow some of this functionality.
Final Design
The final design required many collaborative sessions where designers, accessibility partners developers, legal and compliance. Since this design stepped out of the normal organization design language it was imperative that we would look at all the elements in the component to assure that we where working at the same rigor as the rest of the organizations UI elements.
These designs are planned to be release by summer 2023 time and be a positive element for thousands of users who already have an older version of widgets. These widgets also are ones of the few financial widgets in apple.

The Summer of Chasing Mermaids, by Sarah Ockler
After a boating accident, Elyse flees her native island of Tobago for the cold north of coastal Oregon. She's lost her ability to speak, which is a tragedy for a lively Caribbean girl who had a bright singing future in front of her. In Oregon, she befriends Christian, a boy with a dream of winning a boat race (and saving his town) and his younger brother Sebastian, who dreams of mermaids -- both boys suffer in the silence imposed by their tyrannical father. Collectively, of course, they find their voices during a summer of healing and rebirth.
Ockler has crafted a complex story that worked best for me when it was its most down-to-Earth, dealing with the boy, the race, and the conflict with the father. But there's a lot more to the novel -- memories of Tobago, mermaid lore, mysticism tied to the ocean, as well as a lot of character back story. Some of this was hard to follow and I found the book really hard to get into at first.
What I really did like was Elyse's strong character. While she wasn't always good at expressing herself (especially with the men in her life), she was great at standing up for herself and what she wanted. The romance that develops between her and Christian was particularly hot, in no small part thanks to that agency she exhibits.

Q: Why declaring an anonymous JavaScript function as a function parameter? I don't understand why some JavaScript frameworks like ember.js use an anonymous function as a function parameter value. I would understand if the function was returning something, but it is not.
Here is a sample code of the routing system of ember.js that demonstrate my question:
App.Router.map(function() {
  this.route("about", { path: "/about" });
  this.route("favorites", { path: "/favs" });
});

Please explain me why this code creates an anonymous function as a parameter.

A: It's because that function .map is an async function, and that anonymous function is what to run AFTER .map completes.
Typically async functions look like:
function async(callback) {
    //async stuff, yada
    callback();
}

That callback is what you pass in to run once the async operations complete

A: So basically this creates a way to encapsulate functionality, and run the route set up w/e they need to. I'm not 100% familiar with amber, but my guess is that they do some setup and checking/validation before initializing the routes. Because you pass in the anonymous function, they can now defer the set up you specify until everything is set and ready to go!

A: A function passed in as a parameter means that the function will be run at some point during (or at the end of) the outer function. Often this is used to pass in a callback function.
For example, the map method might do some stuff and then call the anonymous function when finished:
function map(function) {
    // Do some stuff
    function();
}

London: a unique pole of attraction and its many challenges
By Admin Aspenia On May 14, 2015
With a population of around 8 million, London is the largest city in the European Union. By some measures it is also the most successful. It is an economic powerhouse that hosts the world's foremost financial and insurance markets. It also boasts 43 universities, which is the highest concentration of higher education anywhere in Europe. In terms of music, fashion, publishing, the visual arts and even gastronomy, it stands out from European rivals in the sheer quantity and variety in its offer.
There is little wonder then that London is a magnet for the continent's young people, who are drawn to the city for its unparalleled opportunities. While other European cities continue to languish in the doldrums of recession and unemployment, the British capital – relatively isolated from the economic downturn – has become an Eldorado of sorts for Europe's youth.
London has long been a city of arrival, a destination for immigrants from all over the world. In the post-war period, the majority of new Londoners came from Commonwealth countries. Their legacy is the multicultural London of today, which has become one of the most diverse cities on the planet. If 44% of the city's population belongs to an ethnic minority, the figure rises to 80% among students in London's inner-city schools. Higher birth rates among second and third generation immigrant families, coupled with a steady flow of new arrivals into the city, have boosted its population, which last year reached a record high.
London's population is also very young: 25% of its inhabitants are aged between 25 and 34. The youthful and well-educated workforce (60% have a university degree) helps fuel further growth in the urban economy. While the city's concentration of international talent is good for business and for London's international brand, as the city grows inequality does as well.
The consequence is that some sectors of the urban population get left behind in terms of jobs, salaries and access to basic services, such as healthcare and housing. To some extent the city has become a victim of its own success: London is seen as a safe-haven investment for global elites. The vast sums spent by the super-rich have pushed property prices to stratospheric levels, pricing locals out of the housing market and pushing key service workers further out towards the city's periphery. As a result London's chronic housing shortage (not enough homes are being built) threatens to turn into a full-blown crisis. Tensions around this issue are already having political repercussions.
Between 2004 and 2008 almost half a million Polish workers immigrated to the city, as the United Kingdom was one of the few EU member states (alongside Ireland and Sweden) not to apply temporary restrictions on labor movement. Polish workers – and, to a lesser extent, migrants from the other EU10 countries – mostly found manual or low-paid employment. This led to resentment from some sectors of London's white working-class that complained of wage deflation and intense competition for public services. Such fears fuel the growing popularity of UKIP, a euroskeptic, and anti-immigration party.
Interestingly, UKIP has received a certain degree of support from London's ethnic minority communities: the descendants of post-war migrants from former British colonies. They often have a strong sense of British identity and see migration from European countries as an economic and cultural threat. UKIP has tried – not entirely successfully – to frame the debate in such terms. It attempts to make a distinction between earlier migration from Commonwealth countries, which it claims to celebrate, and the more recent migration under European freedom of movement laws, which it rejects as overwhelming and a threat to British values.
Despite the emotional rhetoric that surrounds the issue of EU immigration, there has been very little political discourse about the more recent wave of young economic exiles from Europe's Mediterranean. Pushed by perennially high youth unemployment in their countries of origin and pulled by London's promise of opportunity, young workers from Spain, Italy and Greece have mostly replaced the once-familiar Polish face of the capital's vast service economy. These immigrants are, on average, younger and better educated than their Eastern European counterparts from a few years prior but the shortage of high-skilled employment in London's job market means that many end up working in catering, hotels and retail.
Nevertheless, the British public does, on the whole, identify them conceptually as immigrants. And they are not framed as a competitive threat to the country's traditional working class. The different attitude reflects, to some extent, their countries of origin, which have been EU member-states for longer and are seen as economic equals to the UK. Moreover, the Southern European immigrants do not tend to settle permanently in London – preferring to work for a few years before returning home – and therefore do not make much use of public services.
Overall, London has been remarkably successful at accommodating its different immigrant groups and providing employment opportunities for its young people. There is very little de facto segregation of the type seen in large, multi-ethnic cities in the United States. London's biggest challenge, however, is how to combat inequality and social exclusion of its young people. The London riots of 2011 drew public attention to the level of disillusionment and despair among some of the city's youth. Although most of the violence occurred in the city's more ethnically diverse neighborhoods, this was more a consequence of the economic situation of its inhabitants than a sign of specifically ethnic tensions.
In the past few years, however, a number of young Muslims from London have travelled abroad to join the Islamic State. This has, of course, led to concerns about increasing radicalization within the Muslim community and the British government has attempted to improve anti-radicalization initiatives. An estimated 500 British Muslims are currently fighting with ISIS in Syria and Iraq. Although this number is proportionally smaller than French and Belgian jihadists, it has undoubtedly contributed to increased ethnic tensions in certain areas of the city, where far-right movements seek to capitalize on local fears.
Despite its myriad problems, however, it is unlikely that London will lose its pre-eminent position as a highly attractive hub in the near future. Its successful economy allows it to offer excellent employment opportunities for young people, who will continue to be drawn to the city regardless of its high cost of living, limited public services and lack of housing. Students and young people in the early stages of their career turn to creative and alternative ways of living to keep costs down, such as house shares or formalized squatting. The biggest challenge remains for those who seek to settle permanently in the city, especially with a family.
In this respect things are beginning to change. For example, a significant proportion of the Polish immigrants who arrived after 2004 have returned home, lured by increased opportunities in Poland – which escaped the recession entirely – and the prospect of an easier, more comfortable life. The British are beginning to leave also. Last year a record number of 30- to 39- year-olds left the capital to seek a more affordable life in England's northern cities; 25% more than the number four years ago.
The future for London's youth, whether British-born or recently arrived, depends on the ability of municipal and national authorities to stem the tide of social exclusion by providing more affordable housing and ultimately moving beyond London's status as a home for deracinated billionaires. With regards to the former, there are indications that the housing problem is being taken seriously. As for the latter, we should not expect things to change anytime soon. At the moment London's economy continues to grow and so too will its allure for the young. We should not be too surprised, however, if we witness a repeat performance of the 2011 riots in the years to come.

Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission vs. Three Captains' Sea Products
Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission (PSMFC) filed a complaint against Three Captains' Sea Products on Feb. 10, 2010 in San Mateo County Superior Court.
The claim for relief included $120,097.27 in damages.
PSMFC made an administrative error in 2008 and 2009 while issuing checks for the California Salmon Disaster Relief Programs. PSMFC inadvertently double paid Larry Fortado, owner of Three Captains' Sea Products. The total amount of the overpayment was $120,097.27.
PSMFC and their attorneys sent Larry Fortado letters seeking reimbursement on July 31, 2009, Sept. 30, 2009, November 18, 2009 and Dec. 29, 2009.
After a jury trial was demanded Larry Fortado paid back the federal disaster relief money he owed PSMFC.

Scott Grindy's misuse of Homeland Security videocameras
Flying golf balls peeve WA officials
By DAVID CHIRCOP - Saturday, May 16, 2009 at 9:40am
EVERETT, Wash. —
Golf balls are bombarding the Port of Everett and anti-terrorism cameras are being trained on a residential neighborhood to hunt down the source.
Port officials believe someone on Rucker Hill is whacking golf balls down the hill onto port property, endangering dozens of workers and millions of dollars worth of equipment and cargo.
"We're trying to use any means possible to stop it, aside from posting somebody in the field of fire all day and night," said Ed Madura, a port security official.
The port says the flying golf balls constitute a threat to personal safety. Pointing video surveillance cameras toward the likely source is an appropriate use of the equipment, port officials say.
In the eyes of at least one resident in the Rucker Hill neighborhood southwest of downtown, swiveling the cameras from the fence line to the neighborhood is an invasion of privacy.
"Hitting golf balls is a problem, but if they turn their cameras up on the neighborhood and spy on us, that's a bigger problem," said David Mascarenas, a neighborhood watchdog who has for years fought the port to improve the community's access to public land.
The cameras were paid for, along with fencing and other security equipment, with $2.3 million in grants from the Department of Homeland Security following the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001.
Before the attacks, the Everett port had open terminals and only minimal security. People who live in the surrounding neighborhoods often would walk down and drop crab pots off piers that are now blocked by tall cyclone fences topped with razor wire.
Golf balls have been raining on the port's Pacific Terminal for several months. However, a police report wasn't filed until this week when 18 golf balls over the span of two days were found near stacks of shipping containers. One ball even bounced into a piece of equipment waiting to be shipped to Alaska.
"It's been going on for a while, but it's been getting a lot worse the last couple of days," port spokeswoman Lisa Lefeber said.
Dock superintendent Bob Porter has been shagging balls from the Rucker Hill golfer for months. He keeps a box of them in his office near Pier 1.
"We have to put a stop to it," Porter said.
No injuries have been reported, although an errant golf ball is believed to have broken the driver's-side window of a longshoreman's pickup truck, which was parked in a secure area.
Lefeber said as many as 100 people may be working at the port on any given day. And while most activity happens during the day, people work at the port all hours.
John Nostrom lives near a grassy overlook on Warren Avenue. On two instances, in recent years, he has seen young men pull up to the spot, haul out their drivers, then tee off. The spot is a little more than 200 yards from the place where balls are being found.
"They don't hang out too long," he said.
A good golfer could drive a ball at speeds of up to 165 mph, said Rex Fullerton, general manager at Legion Memorial Golf Course in north Everett.
At that speed, golf balls can seriously injure someone.
"It's obviously a dangerous thing for somebody to just hit a golf ball into an area where it flies over people," Fullerton said. "Of course, we'd encourage them to hit golf balls at our golf course."
If someone is caught, any criminal charges that might be filed would depend on the circumstances, said Sgt. Robert Goetz with the Everett Police Department.
It isn't clear who is driving golf balls onto port land or why. Is it someone practicing their chip shot or a person with a chip on their shoulder?
Steve Ritchie, a dispatcher with The International Longshore and Warehouse Union, Local 32, said he wouldn't be surprised if it was all a malicious act by a disgruntled Rucker Hill resident.
The neighborhood, named for the prominent Rucker family, which built a hilltop mansion there in the early 1900s, boasts some of the city's best views of Port Gardner, the Olympic Mountains and Cascade Range.
There have long been tensions between the neighborhood and the port over noise from container ships that are sometimes unloaded in the middle of the night, glare from floodlights and exhaust from idling vessels.
"There's a lot of people out on Rucker Hill that want the longshoremen more or less shut down," Ritchie said.

Scott Grindy's creepy video surveillance of hillside residences
El Granada residents should beware of inappropriate use of "Homeland Security" video surveillance by Harbormaster Scott Grindy.
Everett port ends golf ball surveillance
Friday, May 22, 2009 at 3:41pm
When golf balls began pelting the Port of Everett's shipping terminal, security officers trained their anti-terrorism cameras on the nearby hillside neighbors, hoping to catch the mystery duffers.
But after residents complained of being spied on, port officials turned the surveillance cameras around. Nevertheless, the barrage of balls has ended.
"In hindsight, we realize the golf balls are a public safety issue, not a threat to the terminals in terms of somebody breaking in," port security director Scott Grindy told The Herald of Everett. "Aiming at the hillside probably wasn't an appropriate use."
Police reports were filed and the video cameras were trained on Rucker Hill after dozens of golf balls landed on the port property in recent weeks, which Grindy said endangered workers and equipment.
The cameras, obtained with some of the more than $2.3 million in federal Homeland Security money for the port, never spotted any balls being hit, and the effort will not be resumed, Grindy told The Associated Press on Friday.
"We've decided to keep our cameras on our perimeter and security fence," he said.
Residents who learned about the surveillance from an article published by The Herald newspaper on May 16 were upset they were being watched.
"If they have the ability to tape my house, there should be a written policy to determine who can see these tapes and how they are used," Dave Miller, whose bedroom window faces the port, told the Everett paper.
Charlene Rawson, chairwoman of the Port Gardner Neighborhood Association, which includes Rucker Hill and the port's terminals, arranged a meeting with port Executive Director John Mohr.
"We had a nice conversation about it," said Rawson, who initially said she believed the port's actions violated people's privacy. "The port said they don't have the cameras pointed at any particular house."
There's no way for the public to determine exactly what the cameras recorded. Port officials said they cannot share video footage because of Homeland Security rules, not can they disclose the location of cameras or answer whether they can pan or zoom.
Grindy said port officials are now working on a surveillance policy.
The only reported damage from the wayward balls was a broken window in a vacant pickup truck two weeks ago. But Grindy said near misses were reported by crews on Amtrak passenger trains, Sounder commuter rail and Burlington Northern Santa Fe freight trains.
Golfers apparently were practicing at the top of the hill in an area where the port terminals, railroad tracks and a public footpath cannot be seen, he said.
"I think the whole issue is that an avid golfer is not realizing that there's all this stuff below," he said.

За селото вижте Латинка (село).

Латинките са род от около 80 вида едногодишни и многогодишни тревисти растения Tropaeolum, един от трите рода в семейство Tropaeolaceae. Родът, произхождащ от Южна и Централна Америка, включва няколко много популярни градински цветя, като най-често се отглеждат T. majus, T. peregrinum и T. speciosum. Най-издръжливият вид е T. polyphyllum от Чили, чиито многогодишни корени могат да оцеляват под земята при температури на въздуха до -15 °C.

Имат ефектни цветове и заоблени щитовидни листа, чиято дръжка е в средата. Цветовете имат пет венчелистчета (понякога и повече), трипестиков плодник и фуниеобразна нектарна тръбичка отзад. Цветовете могат да се добавят в салати за получаване на екзотичен вид и вкус. Имат леко остър вкус, подобен на този на кресона. Неузрелите мариновани семена са използвани за заместител на каперсите. T. tuberosum образува ядлива подземна грудка, която е основен източник на храна в някои части на Андите. В някои страни латинката се смята за символ на родолюбие и патриотизъм.

Растенията от рода Tropaeolum се използват за храна от ларвите на някои ципокрили.

Plastics giants snatch up plants from recycled PET processor
Updated: June 2, 2021 June 2, 2021
by Colin Staub
Equipment in CarbonLite's Dallas PET recycling facility. Indorama Ventures submitted the high bid to acquire the plant during an auction this week.
As part of a bankruptcy case, DAK Americas, Indorama Ventures and The Sterling Group have submitted the high bids to acquire CarbonLite's PET recycling facilities.
CarbonLite CEO Leon Farahnik discussed the development in an interview.
CarbonLite, a PET bottle recycling company serving major U.S. beverage firms, in March filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, indicating it would reorganize and continue operating. The company reported liabilities of between $50 million and $100 million and assets within the same dollar range.
CarbonLite operates plants in Riverside, Calif., Dallas and Reading, Pa., which together have a total annual production capacity of about 250 million pounds of RPET pellets. In early May, the company filed paperwork to auction off the Pennsylvania plant, the company's largest and newest facility, having started up in fall 2019. Virgin resin producer DAK Americas initially submitted a stalking horse bid to purchase the Pennsylvania facility for $96 million.
During the second half of May, all three processing plants have been auctioned, according to court documents. Farahnik confirmed the sales in an interview last week. The sales still need court approval before they're considered final, and Farahnik said he anticipates the sales will be wrapped up by June 10.
Buyers are already involved in PET recycling
Farahnik said the company has planned all along to do what is best for the employees at the facilities, and initially that plan centered on reorganizing and continuing ownership.
"Unfortunately, it didn't work out as a reorganization. It ended up to be more of a sale process," Farahnik said.
CarbonLite attorneys filed notice of an auction for the Riverside facility on May 19 and it was held via Zoom on May 21. Two companies submitted bids, according to a post-auction report. The highest bid came from TSG Shelf II Acquisition LLC, at $57.5 million. CarbonLite attorneys will seek court approval of the sale in a June 3 hearing, according to auction documents.
TSG Shelf II Acquisition LLC is part of The Sterling Group, a Houston private equity firm. The Sterling Group owns other companies involved in plastics recycling, including HDPE recycling company Tangent Technologies and PolyChem (recently renamed Greenbridge), a vertically integrated PET strapping products manufacturer that owns PET reclaimer Evergreen.
The auctions for the Dallas and Reading facilities took place May 24. Post-auction reports show Indorama bid $63.9 million for the Dallas plant and DAK Americas ultimately bid $98.1 million for the Reading plant. The Sterling Group was the backup bidder in both auctions.
Indorama and DAK are growing players in the U.S. PET recycling space. Indorama in recent years acquired U.S. reclaimers Green Fiber International and Custom Polymers PET, and DAK Americas purchased Perpetual Recycling Solutions' Richmond, Ind. PET recycling plant.
Farahnik said all three plants "are in good hands, and they will continue operation." He noted there will be no loss in U.S. PET recycling capacity associated with the CarbonLite bankruptcy.
Besides the reclamation facilities, CarbonLite operates a thermoform packaging manufacturing plant in Oxnard, Calif. through subsidiary company PinnPack. Farahnik said the PinnPack facility is separate from the CarbonLite auctions. It could be sold, he said, but negotiations are ongoing.
Bankruptcy factors extend beyond pandemic
Farahnik previously issued statements on the bankruptcy, noting that the COVID-19 pandemic created substantial pressures for CarbonLite. He elaborated on those pressures in last week's interview and pointed to wider, systemic plastics recycling industry struggles that contributed to the bankruptcy.
The pandemic delayed the opening of CarbonLite's Pennsylvania facility by 11 months, Farahnik said, creating "a very costly situation." Additionally, the company faced multiple COVID-19 outbreaks at its Dallas plant. At one point, the facility had 40 people out with COVID-19 at the same time.
"That created a lot of shutdowns and startups and shutdowns," Farahnik said.
Additionally, as Farahnik said in an interview last year, CarbonLite faced feedstock shortages in California. The deposit program had less material coming in because some of the state's redemption requirements were suspended. At that time, Farahnik said the California facility was forced to combine curbside and deposit bales, resulting in a more contaminated stream of PET coming into its facilities. In the past, it used strictly deposit bales.
"All of these, put together, created a heavy-duty cash crunch on the company," Farahnik said.
But beyond the pandemic, Farahnik said, one of the largest factors in the financial strife was the low price of virgin material, combined with brand owners who were reluctant to pay more for recycled material.
"We couldn't increase our prices to cover our expenses," Farahnik said. "That hurt us very badly."
He acknowledged CarbonLite "didn't have the correct pricing in the market" and said he takes responsibility for that. But when the company moved to increase its prices, it faced reluctance from some customers, court documents indicated earlier this month.
Farahnik did not blame CarbonLite's customers, as he said they face pressure from their buyers to not increase prices. Instead, he said those buyers – the major brand owners and retailers that are making recycled-content pledges – need to be willing to pay more to their suppliers.
"If they want post-consumer material, they have to be willing to pay more for the material," Farahnik said. "Recycling has been hurting for a long time and it needs a real change in pricing structure to be successful."

When you're in the middle of a big move, it may seem like you're throwing money out the window.
You're buying boxes, you're getting extra tape, you're renting a truck…ca-ching! ca-ching! ca-ching! Yeah, we never said moving was going to be completely free. Sometimes when you feel like you're spending dolla dolla bills left and right, you may be hesitant going into each and every purchase.
Take furniture pads for instance (or movers blankets)… do you really need to shell out extra dough for them? Do you really need to add them to your moving supplies list?
Honestly, we didn't know the answer to those questions. But lucky for you, we did our homework and asked an expert to assist us with our answer. You may remember the last time we chatted with moving professional Kevin Kato…when he gave us lots of great advice for packing a box like a pro. He blew us away with his insider tips and tricks, and we just knew he would be our go-to expert for the whole moving blanket dilemma. So here's the 411 on moving pads, from an industry professional.
Why Do I Need Furniture Pads for Moving?
Getting your belongings to the truck: When you're moving your furniture from your home to the truck, it can be a maze of obstacles. You're bound to bump or scrape against the walls and you don't want to do any damage to your stuff, or your home. If a furniture pad is already wrapped around the piece, the damage should be slim to none.
Where Can I Buy Moving Blankets or Paper Pads?
So hopefully we convinced you that skimping on furniture pads can cost you a lot of extra damage to your belongings. Now where the heck do you actually get these oh-so-important moving pads?
RENT THEM: Truck rental outfits like U-Haul, Budget, and Penske rent out furniture blankets for about $15-$25 per dozen.
BUY THEM: If your moving company doesn't rent out furniture pads, then you may want buy your own. Here are some of the available options.
Paper Pads: Typically this is 3-ply sheets of heavy brown paper. This stuff is often used by professional movers.
Kraft Paper: Kraft paper is single-ply, so you'll probably end up using two or three sheets to adequately pad your belongings.
Moving Blankets: Come in a variety of weights and fabrics. These offer extra cushion and protection.
Moving Skins: Less protection than moving blankets, but skins still provide protection from scratching.
Are There Free Furniture Pad Alternatives?
If you don't want to spend an extra penny on professional packing blankets, then there are a couple cheap/free options.
Use your own blankets & comforters: These can work in a pinch, especially since you're likely moving them in your truck anyways. But beware. Kevin says, "By the time you arrive at your new home your blankets and comforters will likely be permanently marred and soiled if not ripped and torn." So if you want your blankets, sheets, and comforters to stay pristine…this might not be your best bet.
Pieces of cardboard: This will help cushion the area in between large pieces of furniture, but it isn't foolproof. "In a pinch, even pieces of cardboard will help protect your furniture. Cardboard tends to shift and slip, though, so you may need a load of tape or else some shrink-wrap to hold it in place, which may turn out to be too much of a hassle to bother," Kato says.

Janata Party President Subramanian Swamy said today that he would move the Supreme Court within a week challenging a Delhi Court's decision to dismiss his plea to make Union Home Minister P Chidambaram as a co-accused in the 2-G scam.
Swamy told a "Meet-The-Press" programme here that in his 70-para verdict delivered early this month, the trial court judge had agreed with him in 65 paras.
However, his appeal was dismissed as the trial court felt that he was unable to prove criminality on the part of Chidambaram, the then finance minister, Swamy said.
He maintained that he can prove this criminality only when Chidambaran is forced to undergo a cross-examination.
Meanwhile attacking the Nehru- Gandhi family, Swamy said that the time had come to free the Congress from the clutches of the family.
He said that the Nehru-Gandhi family has produced only one good leader and he was Rajiv Gandhi.
He said he did not recognise Sonia Gandhi and her son Rahul as political leaders in their own right.

A first for the new Batchewana Attack
Personnel from the Batchewana Attack of the new Canadian International Hockey League made their first public appearance at a press conference held earlier today.
Members of the local media representing HockeyNewsNorth.com, Sault This Week, SooToday.com, CTV Sault Ste. Marie and radio station Oldies 93 were on hand at Rankin Arena to hear from Attack primary owner David Maciuk, general manager Dennis Bolton and head coach Denny Lambert.
Attack assistant coach Gary Roach, scout Jim Casola, education co-ordinator Remi Gentes and medical consultant Dr. Kevin Caruso were also present as was Tim Clayden, the president and founder of the CIHL, an Ontario-based junior league that will begin play this fall with eight teams.
Maciuk, a Sault Ste. Marie native who has a residence here while maintaining business and hockey interests in Chicago, spoke of why he got involved with the Attack and the CIHL.
"I have been around the game my whole life and this keeps me in it in a new capacity," said Maciuk, who played with the Soo Greyhounds in their inaugural, 1973-1974 Ontario Hockey League season before moving to Chicago to play at the minor-pro level.
"I believe in the concept of the CIHL where Canadians and Americans share the same status as non-imports.
"From our end, giving local players the option of playing for us will be a top priority. We want to give them the opportunity to develop and move on and they can do so by playing for a coach like Denny Lambert who has played and coached in the OHL and played in the NHL.
"For an organization that is just starting out, we have managed to bring in a veteran junior hockey guy in Dennis Bolton to be our GM and a head coach in Denny Lambert who has a record that speaks for itself," Maciuk added.
The 63-year old Bolton has an impressive hockey past.
Not only did Bolton play in the OHL with the Kitchener Rangers but he starred at the U.S. college hockey level for the Lake Superior State Lakers.
Bolton has spent the past six seasons as an associate coach in the Northern Ontario Jr. Hockey League for Soo Eagles (now of the North American Hockey League), Soo Thunderbirds and Blind River Beavers.
When Maciuk approached Bolton to become the GM of the Attack, the answer was quick and easy.
"Saying yes was the easy part," smiled Bolton. "Now the real work has started. We have a lot to do but we are off to a very good start, especially on the hockey side with Denny and Gary. And we are so fortunate to have the use of a perfect junior A hockey facility. I have no doubt that the Rankin Arena will be rocking this winter."
Roach, who will be Lambert's no. 1 assistant, played four seasons in the OHL and was a top defenceman on the Soo Greyhounds Memorial Cup team of 1993.
Lambert, who played for and then coached the Greyhounds as part of an 11-year association with the OHL team, is thrilled to be back in the game as bench boss of the Attack.
"I want to pass on what I have learned and been a part of in the OHL and the NHL to the players of the Batchewana Attack," Lambert said evenly. "We will be a disciplined team built on hard work and playing the game the right way.
"Between Gary and I, we will use our practice time to pass on to the players what we know and what we have been taught. I am so looking forward to being a part of this."
Also on hand for the initial press conference were the two first player signings for the Attack — 1997 birth-year forward Jacob Palmerio and 1996 birth-year defenceman Cade Nolan.
Both Palmerio and Nolan are area products.
Palmerio played with the Soo Thunder minor midgets in 2012-2013 before moving to Sudbury to skate for the Nickel City Sons major midgets in 2013-2014.
Nolan has played three seasons at the major midget level, suiting up for both the Soo Indians and the erstwhile Soo North Stars.
Parents of both Palmerio and Nolan were also on hand for the first-ever press conference of the Attack and they spoke of how happy they are to have their sons be able to stay home, continue their schooling and be a part of Sault Ste. Marie's new junior A hockey team.
Next up for the Attack is a main tryout camp to be held August 8-10 at Lake Superior State University's Taffy Abel Arena.
Players born in 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998 and 1999 who wish to register for the Batchewana tryout camp can do so by e-mail via gm@soojuniorhockey.com.
The Attack and the CIHL will begin the 2014-2015 regular season during the first week of October. Prior to that, CIHL teams will participate in a pair of September showcase tournaments being hosted by the Detroit Fighting Irish and Traverse City Hounds of the Midwest Jr. Hockey League.

What you think about "A first for the new Batchewana Attack"
BirdsFan says:
I say…this team is off to a great start…just with Denny and Gary as Coach's! This team will be worth the watch if only to watch the Rankin "rock"…
stix601 says:
Can someone share the cost to play in the CIHL?
Stix do you have a son wanting to play, maybe you should call a team and they can help you.
On another note I hear Mazzuca called an OHL team saying that one CIHL team had a logo that was
close to theirs. I have a feeling he is more worried than he lets on.
American Eagle says:
Can't wait to watch this team when I am in Soo Canada! I am a big fan of Dennie Lambert from his Greyhounds days. I watched a game at this rink back in 1977 or 78 when the Indians were beating up on the Thunderrbirds … still remembur it!!

Grade 11 Connections Group at Hamilton District Christian High ventured to 541 Eatery and Exchange to do some Christmas outreach.
Our students had the opportunity to help organize a Christmas party for a young girl's group consisting of 18 girls. The purpose of the 541 girl's group is to offer mentorship to an at-risk population in the surrounding neighbourhood in order to provide positive connections and build self-esteem.
The Connections group made decorations, hand-made wooden ornaments, and baked goods for the party later that evening. The students then spent some time connecting with each other over a delicious lunch at 541. While the HDCH group didn't get to meet the younger girls that the party was for, it was such a wonderful and unique opportunity for one group of girls to anonymously connect and minister to another.

The Cambrian Mountains, remote, desolate, a hidden beauty are a jewel to be found in the heart of Wales. The Cambrian Mountains are home to some of Wales' great rivers. The sources of the Rivers Severn, Wye and Teifi can be found here. Folklore says that there is a sleeping giant on Plynlimon, its highest peak at 752 metres.
I had heard of this trail before so, with my wife, set off to learn more. It seems historically that there may have been an ancient route between two abbeys each side of the mountains. In the east there is Abbeycwmhir, a Cistercian abbey built in the 12th Century but never fully completed and the other is Strata Florida, which quickly became a site of huge religious significance and home to Welsh culture.

"Woman after the Bath" by Goyō Hashiguchi is a colour woodblock print, from 1920's Japan. The artist, Goyo's had a late call to the traditional woodblock print after a career of illustration in other media. He was inspired by the old techniques and admiration for the great portraits of beautiful women by Kitagawa Utamaro (1753 – 1806). The extraordinary beauty and technical excellence have made his prints among the most sought-after Japanese prints.
