Острец е село в Североизточна България. То се намира в община Търговище, област Търговище.

География
Селото е разположено в източната част на област Търговище, на границата ѝ с област Шумен. Релефът на землището е равнинно-хълмист. Надморската височина на Вранското равнище е 67 метра, а най-високата точка – 175 метра е връх "Чучката", който е на изток от Острец.

Климатът на селото е умерено континентален – с горещо лято и студена зима. Селото е под влиянието на западни и северни ветрове. През ранна пролет падат много слани. Градушките са често явление. Почвите в землището на селото са черноземни, а около течението на река Врана – алувиално-ливадни.

История
Старото име на селото е Ялъмлар. Преименувано е на 14 август 1934 г. на Острец.

Долината на река Врана е плодородна, затова тук винаги е имало живот. По тези места са живели тракийските племена гети и кробизи. Има намерен тракийски могилен акропол в местността "Ламарата", селището е в местността "Тузлата". На Лаз баир са открити останки от римска вила рустика. Имаше и "милиарен" камък до река Врана, но при корекцията, строителни войски го заравят дълбоко при изкопните работи. Предмети от старобългарско селище от Първата българска държава се намериха в местността "Бозалъка".

Селото преди османското нашествие през 1388 година е било българско. Открити са имена на българи и през 1607 година и през 1658 година. Плащали са данък и тогава вече е тимар на Мерид. Помохамаданчването е направено вероятно през 1689 година, когато тук минават татарите на Селим Гирай. За Острец пише и в "Маджарски пътеписи за Балканите – ХІV – ХІХ век", и в "Немски и австрийски пътеписи", където Симперт Нигел пише, че са минали през село Ялъмлар, през село Бухлар на 15 януари 1700 година.

Женска носия от село Янюрен

Името на селото произлиза, според проф. Йордан Заимов от БАН, от турска почва, "и е мн. число от личното име Ялъм от турската дума yaalim, която значи острие, клин, пламък. При превода му е взето първото значение на думата – острие. Би трябвало по-правилно да се преведе Острьовци, а не Острец. Лар е родово окончание и прибавено се чете Ялъмлар – хората на Ялъмов".

През турско тук е живяло и племето Лази, което вероятно е преселено насилствено през 16 – 17 век, защото старите турци помнеха от дедите си за него. Черкези тук не са живели, но се знае, че са извършвали нападения над хора, отиващи на Ески Джумайския панаир.

Освобождението от турско става не на 3 март 1878 година, а на 17 юли 1878 г., когато след четиримесечното примирие, то, останало на демаркационната линия, получава свободата си, когато генерал Белокопитов минава тук, на път за Шумен.

Една година след това в Ялъмлър пристигат избягалите от с. Янюрен, Дедеагачко, от Беломорието тракийци, които и до днес наричат беломорци. Първите заселници са няколко семейства роднини. Прииждат още беломорци, "шопи", още тракийци и заживяват заедно в разбирателство. Занятието им е земеделие и скотовъдство, а шопите са строители. Участват остречани във всички войни, в които загиват 27 души, някои останали живи са наградени, но болката от войната остава завинаги в душите на хората

Православен Параклис ,,Рождество на Пресвета Богородица"
На 30 октомври 2010 година в село Острец община Търговище, в навечерието на светлия български празник ,,Денят на народните будители'' отваря врати православен храм.

Идеята да се изгради параклис е дадена от Станка Тодорова, по професия учител и горещо подкрепена от будни остречани, потомци на бежанци от Одринска и Беломорска Тракия.

   Варненският и Великопреславски митрополит Кирил прави първата копка и полага основния камък на 8 септември 2009 година.

   Проектът е дело на архитект Вичка Стоянова.

   Да построи храма даром се ангажира младият строителен предприемач Светлин Андреев Стоев, чиито фамилни корени са от село Острец. Обектът е завършен за една година.

   Осветен е на 30 октомври 2010 година отново от Митрополит Кирил в съслужение  със свещеници от двете Търговищки църкви ,,Свети Иван Рилски'' и  ,,Успение Богородично''.

   Отеква камбанния звън! Митрополит Кирил поръсва със светена вода присъстващите за здраве и благоденствие.

   Одухотворени, миряните отнасят в сърцата си завета ,,Да пазим християнската вяра и християнския дух, за да ни има нас, за да я има България''.

ELECTED: Conservative winners after the count in St Neots, from left, Richard Bailey (Buckden), Andrew Gilbert (Eynesbury) and Richard West (Gransden & the Offords).
RATHER against the rub of the green, there were a couple of surprises in last week's elections for one third of the seats on Huntingdonshire District Council.
The biggest surprise was the turnout - not nearly as bad as canvassers had predicted from the apathy they found on the doorstep.
And, given that nothing really turned on the outcome of the elections - there was no chance of shaking Conservative control of the council - getting more than a third of the electorate (33.7 per cent) to vote was quite an achievement.
In the end, the result was even-stevens. The Tories gained (technically) three seats, two of them from the Liberal Democrats, and the Lib Dems took two from the Conservatives.
The third Conservative gain was in Gransden & the Offords, where Alec Stenner had been sitting as an Independent since resigning the Conservative whip a year ago when he was not selected to contest the county council elections for the Tories. So, with Mr Stenner not standing, it was really a Tory hold.
All the HDC cabinet members whose seats were contested - Councillors Terry Rogers, Nick Guyatt and Deborah Reynolds - retained their seats comfortably, as did vice-chairman Peter Bucknell in Warboys and Bury.
In Ramsey, veteran Lib Dem Ray Powell fought off a Tory challenge by more than doubling his majority - to just 16 votes - in a straight fight where fewer than one voter in three turned out for the occasion, in spite of the longer polling hours.
Best turnouts were in Buckden and Alconbury & The Stukeleys, where more than 51 per cent of the electorate went to the polling station.
The Tories easily held Alconbury, though with a new candidate after Sarah Vanbergen decided to take a rest from council duties. They also took Buckden from the Lib Dems after Terry Clough stood down for a similar reason - and in spite of the Lib Dems putting up a strong candidate in former councillor and transport spokesman, Mark Rainer.
The other Conservative gain was in Eynesbury, where Ian Pele Taylor was beaten convincingly by Andrew Gilbert. The Lib Dems may have fallen victim to a very poor turnout of fewer than 30 per cent of the electorate.
However, there was consolation for the party in Huntingdon East (vacated by former HDC leader Derek Holley, who has retired from local politics) and St Neots Priory Park, which has been without full representation since last autumn when former member Nick Finnie emigrated to Australia.
The Lib Dems will, however, have been disappointed by their showing in Sawtry, where another former HDC councillor, John Souter, came a poor third to Independent John Garner, a former head of the village's primary school.
So the political composition of the new council is exactly the same as after the last election two years ago when all the seats were contested - 40 Conservatives, 10 Liberal Democrats and two Independent members.
Tory leader Councillor Ian Bates said the result had been an endorsement by the electorate of HDC's policy of delivering services from a low tax base.
He particularly welcomed the success of the two youngest Tory candidates, Richard Bailey, in Buckden, and Andrew Gilbert, in Eynesbury. "It's good to have young people contributing to the community," he said.
But he was disappointed not to have taken Ramsey, where the other two councillors are both Conservatives and where the previous Lib Dem majority was just seven votes.
Liberal Democrat leader, Councillor Peter Downes, was thrilled that the party had won its first seat in Huntingdon. "Overall, there was a 1.4 per cent swing from the Conservstives.


How Long After Eating Do Small Puppies Have to Go to the Bathroom?
Take your cutie outdoors immediately after she eats.
One of the most important things you will ever do for your new puppy is housebreak her. The training process may not always be straightforward to you, especially at first. After meals, small puppies generally have to go to the bathroom immediately -- absolutely no time for dillydallying at all.
When it comes to determining when exactly to take your wee puppy outdoors post-mealtime, the Humane Society of the United States advises to do so immediately -- no need to wait around. Apart from just eating, puppies also need to go outside to eliminate immediately after a variety of other different activities, including drinking water, waking from sleep and energetic play.
Small puppies generally have to go both No. 1 and No. 2 very soon after eating. Expect your little one to urinate and defecate anywhere between 15 minutes and half an hour after eating, reports the Rock County Humane Society. However, some puppies may relieve themselves well before 15 minutes, and some make take longer than half an hour. It all depends on the individual cutie. The younger the puppy, the quicker she may need to eliminate, hence the need to head outside as soon as possible. This is especially important for pups that have not even reached the 3-month mark. Very young puppies may urinate and defecate a mere five minutes after eating, so take note.
Taking a small puppy outdoors to use the bathroom after eating and drinking is extremely important. According to the ASPCA, very young pups lack fully developed bowel and bladder management. Because of this fact, it can be extremely difficult for the little guys to control their potty urges. If a small puppy has to go to the bathroom, she has to go to the bathroom, and that's that. Taking your puppy outside immediately after a meal not only stops her from having to feel discomfort, it also prevents possible messy house soiling accidents -- definitely a good thing.
Similarly to small puppies, adult dogs tend to need to eliminate shortly after chowing down, although usually not quite as quickly. After all, adult dogs are usually very capable of managing their bathroom urges. Once your little pup develops into a fully grown, adult pooch, expect her to have to go to the bathroom approximately 30 minutes after eating, indicates the Ohlone Humane Society.

The various energy regions of the electromagnetic spectrum are typically defined by wavelength, or energy. The analytical chemist is interested in interactions of matter with the various energies of radiation since these form the basis of many useful types of spectrographic analysis. These interactions range from changes in spin of subatomic particles at the low energy end of the spectrum (radio waves) to nuclear events at the high energy end. The energy utilized in X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy is sufficient to penetrate outer electron shells, but not energetic enough to cause atomic transitions. The unique atomic event induced in the XRF process is the loss of inner shell electrons. An element ionized in this way, leaving a vacancy in an inner electron shell, is highly unstable and quickly reverts to a more stable form by transfer of an outer shell electron to fill the inner shell vacancy. This transition across an energy gap from outer to inner shells within an atom is accompanied by fluorescence emission with an energy unique to the atomic structure of the element. The sketch of the atom shown above illustrates this excitation and emission process.
Detection of the emitted fluorescence following the proper excitation conditions forms the basis of the XRF measurement. The energy of an emission peak in an XRF spectrum provides unambiguous identification of an element in a sample. Then, as in other forms of spectroscopy, a relationship between emission intensity and the amount of an element present is established using standards which span a concentration range of interest. In this way, both qualitative and quantitative information may be gathered via the XRF technique.
As an analytical tool, XRF offers many features which make it an attractive choice for on-line applications. The method is non-destructive and requires little or no sample preparation. No reagents are needed and no waste is generated. Until recently, on-line applications were limited to samples with analyte concentrations in the ppm range or higher. This limitation excluded most metals of interest in power plant streams where corrosion products and other metals are typically in the ppb range or below.
Detora has lowered the sensitivity barrier by using a concentrating mechanism where analytes are accumulated on filters, for particulate materials, or ion exchange media, for dissolved metals. In this way, the detection limit refers to a mass amount of analyte rather than a concentration. And, since the accumulated mass depends on sample flow rate and collection time, either of these operating parameters may be increased, within practical limits, to push the detection limit lower.

Brandi Glanville just proclaimed that Eddie Cibrian would ditch his wife, LeAnn Rimes, in three years.
Brandi Glanville has officially rebooted her ongoing feud with Leann Rimes and Eddie Cibrian. About eight years after the two engaged in an affair on the set of their Lifetime movie, "Northern Lights," the former "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star appeared on E!'s "Daily Pop," where she admitted that she is not in a great place with Rimes and Cibrian and predicted that her former husband would leave his country singer wife in three years.
On June 6, Us Weekly shared details of Glanville's appearance on the daytime talk show, revealing that the former reality star noted that her relationship with Rimes and Cibrian was a "little rocky." She also suggested that it was Rimes and Cibrian's lack of maturity that had led to their issues. "It's been eight years and you would think that people would mature and be different, but there's still some craziness happening," she explained.
According to Glanville, it seems unlikely that her relationship with the pair will improve. Instead, she's reportedly looking forward to the 10-year mark of Rimes and Cibrian's relationship when Cibrian will reportedly leave the country singer and take half of her belongings. At that point, Glanville explained, she and her former husband will be "good together." She also noted that if Rimes doesn't have a child with Cibrian, she and her family will never have to see her again.
Although there doesn't appear to be any signs of drama between Rimes and Cibrian, Glanville is convinced the actor will last just "three more years" with the singer before packing his bags and heading for another divorce. Then, she continued, after he hits the 10-year mark, he will be granted half of everything Rimes owns.
Following her controversial interview with E!'s "Daily Pop," Glanville shared a tweet with her fans and followers in which she applauded herself as a "bread-winner, chef, cleaner, driver, coach, tutor, bill payer, problem solver, nurturer, nurse, pet parent, alarm clock, and waitress." She also included the hash tag, "#momlife."
"The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" is returning to Bravo later this year but Brandi Glanville will not be seen on the series.
As fans will recall, her role was reduced after season five and removed after season six.

BPI To Pay $450K for Waterloo Accident
Beef Products Inc. has agreed to pay a $450,000 civil penalty to settle alleged violations of Clean Air Act regulations from a 2007 incident at a now-closed Waterloo packing plant which killed a worker and injured another. In the accident more than 1,000 pounds of anhydrous ammonia was released into an area occupied by workers and two became trapped.
WATERLOO, Iowa (AP) — Beef Products Inc. has agreed to pay a $450,000 civil penalty to settle alleged violations of Clean Air Act regulations from a 2007 incident at a now-closed Waterloo packing plant which killed a worker and injured another.
In the accident more than 1,000 pounds of anhydrous ammonia was released into an area occupied by workers and two became trapped. The EPA determined in an investigation that the company failed to implement its risk management plan.
The company says it is working with EPA to resolve past concerns about its refrigeration systems and that includes enhancing existing controls and procedures.
The company has agreed to conduct audits of its compliance with risk management regulations at the South Sioux City, Neb., facility and correct any identified problems.

An Israeli company called Nanomedic has begun showing off its impressive device for applying an electrospun material to the surface of wounds. Electrospinning involves using electricity to produce extremely fine polymer threads. This technology is almost always used during manufacturing.
The SpinCare product is the first portable electrospinning device and it can lay down a thin bed of nano-scale fibers over the entire surface of a wound. The material protects the wound while working as a medium, mimicking the extra cellular matrix, within which healing can take place and cells proliferate.
The fibers themselves can be infused with drugs such as antibiotics, as well as antibacterial compounds, collagen, silicon, and other substances that may help a wound.
When it needs changing or when a wound is healed, the material simply peels off, kind of like dried school glue, from the skin.
So far only a few people have been treated with this product, but their experiences are already very promising. The device is slated to be available in Europe soon, but no word on when the FDA will approve its use in the United States.

Or maybe more accurately this title should be, "how I am navigating life during these crazy, tumultuous days." No matter your political leanings, I imagine that you feel it too. Over the past six months or so, I have been in an internal process of figuring out boundaries and healthy decisions around Facebook, news consumption, and relationship preservation in the midst of strong disagreement. At times, it has been exhausting.
I have come up with a few ideas on how to accomplish my goals of staying calm, sane, and present to my family while also speaking up and acting upon issues that are most important to me. This is an organic and ongoing process.
Meditation – Whether I am in a yoga class or sitting in my favorite chair by the fireplace with a candle lit before me, I do lots of breathing and meditation these days. I believe that within faith expression, the contemplative practices are making a comeback. We all need to do whatever we can to be more centered and calm.
Facebook "rules" – I use a screening tool called "facebook purity." It isn't perfect but it has helped me make better decisions about how I wish to use this form of social media. It only works on desktops, so I try to mostly check Facebook from there. I most often choose to follow "friends feeds" so I get an update on those I am most interested in following – lots of photos, family news, and of course the sharing of news articles. I usually don't click on the news links they share (see below), but sometimes when I have a friend who is thoughtful and discriminating about such things, I do. If it is truly news, I double-check the source and only click if it is one that I believe to be reliable. If it is a blog or opinion, I will sometimes engage if the topic is of interest or the author offers a new idea or perspective.
If I have a friend, on the right or the left, who seems to be in a ranting or preachy or over the top frustrated mood, I unfollow them for a time. Sometimes I check back in after a time. Things sometimes settle.
I have some friends that have said publicly that if someone posts political things, they are going to unfriend or unfollow them. I get that response. Facebook is still a place where on occasion I am able to interact with people of like mind and learn of ways to collaborate. I appreciate that aspect of it. On occasion, I find something highly important or compelling and will post that. I am truly ok if that means that others decide to unfollow me.
I do my best to avoid going on Facebook anytime after 6-7:00 pm. Sleep is critical during these stressful days, and I try not to open myself up to anything within my control that might jack me up before I need to wind down for a good night's sleep.
I heard a most interesting podcast that interviewed Maria Popova, "a cartopgrapher of meaning in a digital age." Her challenge to all of us to harness the internet for good and positive outcomes was inspiring. I am working on that in my own interactions with this growing force in our world.
News Sources – This is a new habit that I am trying to adopt. Every morning, before I get onto Facebook, I go onto the news source website that I believe to be most trustworthy, in depth, and reliable. Every day or so, I also go to a source that offers a different point of view so that I know where "the other half" is coming from. I don't linger there, but it is helpful and instructive.
This discipline helps me when I get on Facebook. I am not as apt to be hearing something upsetting or concerning for the very first time. I realized that when Facebook was the origin for any disturbing news, my mind would swirl and twist and turn. It also helps me to have context for why all of a sudden people on both sides of an issue are posting frenetically. Some days, it is better to stay off of social media. I will admit this is hard for me, but I want to make that healthy choice more often.
Prioritized Response – For me, there are many troubling decisions and issues constantly rolling before me. Opening up to the news of the day can sometimes feel like a giant game of "whack-a-mole." Several months back, I realized that I needed to go through a process to identify my top three concerns in this particular political climate. I have landed upon my very own priorities.
Having a clear number 1, 2, and 3 has provided clarity. When something happens with my #3, I often make phone calls and encourage a few friends to do the same. If it is my #1 or #2, I take further action steps. I also have a clear pathway forward about how I want to spend my time and energy and relationship building. I pay particular attention to these three matters when they hit the news. I am extremely grateful that when I ask similarly minded friends about their priorities, they are often different from my own. They are hard at work around their passions.
Because of the way that President Trump communicates, I could spend a great deal of wasted time and energy hopping from drama to drama. Many things I have to let roll. But not my top three.
Self-Care – As a parent, I learned in a very hard way that self-care is essential in times of high stress. I almost completely unraveled as a mom and human being during a particularly difficult time (stay tuned for my upcoming book and you can read ALL about it). I am no good to anyone if I don't take good care of myself. Personally, that means a great deal of exercise, healthy food choices, sleep, monthly massage, and hanging out with people I love and who make me laugh. I believe that for at least the next four years, and most likely well beyond, the therapists, yoga instructors, and masseuses in our world have great job security. All of these are a part of my self-care plan.
How have you managed the 24/7 news cycle, disagreements with family and friends, and your very own Facebook fatigue? I would love to hear from you. I am always looking for new ideas about better ways to live.

Donald Named to CFPA All-Purpose Performer Watch List
FUBeAR
I Root For: Furman & Mercer
MACON, Ga. – Mercer University's JeTarii Donald added to the team's growing list of preseason awards, as he was named to the 2014 College Football Performance Awards All-Purpose Performer Watch List. Donald was one of 30 returning players from the NCAA's Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) to receive recognition.
Donald led the team in all-purpose yards in 2013, racking up 1,444 yards to go along with nine touchdowns. He ranked second on the team with 874 rushing yards, while adding 10 receptions for 160 yards. The Nashville, Tenn. native was one of the top kick returners for the Bears as well, averaging 20.8 yards per return on the year.
The sophomore running back is the sixth Bear to garner preseason recognition from the CFPA this year, as tight end Robert Brown, punt returner JT Palmer, quarterback John Russ, running back Payton Usher and placekicker Tyler Zielenske were each named to the watch list for their respective positions this summer.
The goal of College Football Performance Awards is to provide the most scientifically rigorous conferment in college football. Recipients are selected exclusively based upon objective scientific rankings of the extent to which individual players increase the overall effectiveness of their teams. Twenty-eight CFPA winners have been first-round NFL Draft selections.

How climate laws can catalyze more equitable cities
Chris Richard
Thursday, June 1, 2017 - 1:30am

California emissions targets present a test case for bridging climate policies and social justice.
This story originally appeared on Ensia.
It was a time of year that should have been perfect.
Warming temperatures marked Southern California's gentle return to spring. The grass had shifted from drab to glowing green. The sky, which can be pale and hard in winter, had softened to a gentler blue.
At the John Mendez Baseball Park in Los Angeles' Wilmington neighborhood, the air rang with the sounds of batting practice. Nearby, people had brought their children to run on the green grass and play.
Still, the day fell short of a Californian idyll.
Over the outfield fence sat an oil rig. Not looming, exactly. It was just there, huge and pumping fumes — and this was just another moment, another swing of the pump, another gust of oil-sodden air. It was doing its job: Moment by moment, day in, day out, year after year, a moment last year, a moment just now, doing its job.
The spring breeze stank.
"I think about it every day," said Esteban Esqueda, coach of the Cubs, a Shetland League baseball team for 5- and 6-year-olds.
Wilmington is a blue-collar neighborhood adjoining the nation's busiest seaport and includes four refineries. It is dotted with oil wells and storage tanks, many right next to houses.
"When I smell that smell, I think about the people who get sick," Esqueda said.
That's Sandra Sepulveda's worry, too. "We're breathing this air," said Sepulveda, who has lived in Wilmington for more than a decade and has two young sons. "Who knows what it could be doing to our bodies?"
As California lawmakers move to make their state a national policy leader on atmospheric emissions and global climate change, environmental activists want that question answered closer to home.
In September, Gov. Jerry Brown signed Senate Bill 32, which requires the state to cut its greenhouse gas emissions to 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030.
The state already was on course to cut carbon emissions since the passage in 2006 of Assembly Bill 32. That landmark legislation required the state to reduce its carbon emissions to 1990 levels by 2020.
Who's going to pay for all that? How are working people ever going to afford that?
AB 32 fostered a host of new regulations and green policies, from California's cap-and-trade industrial carbon emissions law to rebates for solar power installations and electric or fuel-cell car purchases.
Experts say SB 32 will require much more sweeping change. "The effort required of industry will be herculean," said Jim Sweeney, director of Stanford University's Precourt Energy Efficiency Center. "In addition, you'd have to have very invasive rules requiring people to retrofit their homes or change the kind of car they drive. Who's going to pay for all that? How are working people ever going to afford that?"
Similarly, people such as Esqueda and Sepulveda increasingly are asking how they fit in to California's effort to turn back climate change. Up to now, some California environmentalists successfully have argued that laws aimed at cutting greenhouse gases also benefit the state's low‐income, largely minority communities by reducing respiratory disease in areas where air pollution is the worst.
Historically, these Californians have supported tougher environmental rules. But while Esqueda and others still welcome the steps their home state has taken to reduce the pace of global warming, they want to see more environmental improvement, much more, in their own neighborhoods. And they want more programs to make it affordable for people in their communities to meet increasingly stringent greenhouse gas regulations.
Capping co-pollutants
At the core of California's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is the state's cap-and-trade program. The "cap" is a statewide limit on greenhouse gas emissions from certain industries, which becomes stricter over time. In order to meet state restrictions, companies have three choices: reduce emissions; buy allowances to continue releasing greenhouse gases; or get "offsets" (PDF) that let them make up for high emissions in one area with reductions somewhere else.
With that third option, though, there's no state requirement that the environmental benefit be in California.
A University of Southern California study found that in the first two years after cap and trade began in early 2013, more than three-quarters of the offsets were for projects outside the state. Meanwhile, factories that bought the right to continue emitting greenhouse gases release proportionate amounts of "co-pollutants." In fact, the USC study found that in the first years of cap and trade, emissions increased in communities surrounding industrial sites.
Under California law, proceeds from allowance auctions must be used for programs that reduce emissions of greenhouse gases. In 2012, state lawmakers passed Senate Bill 535, which allocated a quarter of auction proceeds to subsidies for projects providing environmental benefits to "disadvantaged communities." Last year's Assembly Bill 1550 tightened that requirement, requiring that the 25 percent of auction funds be spent in those communities.
The state identifies such areas with a computerized assessment tool that evaluates environmental, health, demographic and socioeconomic data, census tract by census tract, across California. The money is supposed to go to environmental programs in the hardest-hit areas. But some have questioned the distribution.
"My district has some of the worst air pollution in the state, and yet that district gets some of the state's lowest levels of cap-and-trade money to help us solve our problems," said state assemblywoman Cristina Garcia. "That can't continue."
Garcia, chair of the Assembly Committee on Natural Resources, is a leader in the campaign by a new coalition of lawmakers from heavily polluted communities throughout California to expand subsidies more broadly in support of environmental justice.
Late in April, Garcia's committee passed Assembly Bill 378, which would formalize air pollution regulation as part of the state's cap-and-trade program. It would require the state's Air Resources Board to set factory-by-factory limits on air pollution.
"We've had very deep concern as to whether cap-and-trade auction revenues were being invested in communities that are disproportionately bearing the brunt of these co-pollutants," said Kevin de León, president pro-tempore of the state Senate. "As we move toward extending cap and trade, it's very important that these communities are provided the resources they need to combat these harmful emissions."
Increasingly, elected officials such as de León and Garcia are citing that argument in discussions over SB 32. Brown contended that continuing cap and trade is essential to that goal. Tax-limitation activists, meanwhile, say the program is unconstitutional because state legislators initially passed it with a simple majority vote, not the supermajority ordinarily required to impose a tax. But a state appeals court recently rejected that argument (PDF), saying cap and trade isn't a tax at all because buying offsets or purchasing special pollution allowances is voluntary. Brown expects more challenges and is seeking a two-thirds ballot in the state legislature to approve an extension of the cap-and-trade program.
That kind of supermajority is hard to attain. Legislators representing heavily polluted communities are using their votes as bargaining chips to promote programs that can benefit their constituents.
"The state's climate change laws have been called 'trickle-down environmental policy,'" said state assemblyman Eduardo Garcia, who last year won the passage of legislation (PDF) that ties the state's new greenhouse gas regulations to new oversight by state lawmakers and requires more emphasis on pollution around industrial installations, rather than simply seeking a statewide reduction in emissions.
"Maybe before the environmental benefits did trickle down, but not far enough. We're kind of turning trickle-down upside down so it benefits all Californians," he said.
Clean cars for all
Broadening participation in the state's environmental programs is another way Californians are working to ensure environmental programs reach all people. In 2014 de León led passage of legislation (PDF) that directed state regulators to create programs increasing access to clean transportation in low-income communities. The law aims to have 1.5 million electric or hydrogen-powered vehicles on the road by 2025 (PDF).
"If we're going to make a real dent in carbon emissions, which [are] global, we have to make sure that working families can find these cars to be affordable," de León said.
The law is at work in a pilot program (PDF) offered by the Richmond, California–based Community Housing Development Corporation that extends financing for used hybrid, electric or fuel cell vehicles to low-income residents of six Northern California counties. CHDC program manager Vivian Rahwanji is working on expanding the service throughout the state.
Similarly, the environmental nonprofit Valley Clean Air Now uses cap-and-trade money to fund a car trade-in program for low-income residents of the San Joaquin Valley. Executive director Tom Knox said he regularly helps clients exchange old internal-combustion vehicles that are expensive to maintain with much newer and more reliable used electric cars.
Knox said he could easily see similar exchanges operating nationwide.
"We're not dealing with Santa Monica coastal types here," he said, referring to one liberal section of the state. The culture and economy of the San Joaquin Valley are much more comparable to, say, Kansas or other more conservative parts of the country than to liberal enclaves, he said.
"The difference here is that we do have cap and trade, which has been a subject of debate in the country as a whole," he said. "But whatever the funding source, I can say having funding for these voluntary incentive programs is incredibly effective."
In Los Angeles, Bahram Fazeli, policy and research director at the nonprofit activist group Communities for a Better Environment, wants to see such programs dramatically expanded.
"It's true that when you go to Sacramento today, it seems like everybody's got legislation promoting an electric vehicle program. But it's still incremental, and we need to have programs that are transformational, especially in South Los Angeles," he said. "If we're going to reach our 2030 targets, we can't continue with business as usual."
Amy Vanderwarker, co-director of the activist group California Environmental Justice Alliance, wants to take that transformational message to a broader audience. "What we're really hoping, especially in the context of the federal administration, is to show that what climate leadership looks like today, in California and across the country, is policy that puts environmental justice and equity issues at the center. That's how California can continue to lead," she said.
Aiko Schaefer, coordinator of Washington state-based Front and Centered, a coalition of environmental and economic justice groups, said California's example inspired her own group's support for carbon tax legislation that includes direct financial support for neighborhoods most demonstrably hurt by pollution.
"This idea of reinvesting carbon revenues into communities that have higher rates of pollution that was modeled in California is something we're seeing find its way into state policies across the country," Schaefer said.
Rafe Anderson, who lives next door to Wilmington in San Pedro, attended a recent climate march near an oil refinery that has announced plans to expand. He said it seems only reasonable to make the company deal with the pollution it creates.
"If you live here, you wake up in the morning and you go outside and you see the horrible grime on your car, for example, and you know you're breathing that stuff," he said. "I can't imagine why you would tell these polluters, 'We're going to keep track of some of the mess you're making of this planet, but not all of it.'"
A few blocks away, near the Wilmington baseball park where the oil rig looms, Sepulveda smelled the air. It was a Saturday, and for now the cargo trucks that usually back up on Harry Bridges Boulevard had thinned out for the weekend.
There was no traffic jam that day. You couldn't smell the diesel fumes. A brisk wind had blown away the stench from the well.
You could smell the ocean. It smelled pretty good.
Proponents of the new blend of green policies and social justice hope for environmental reprieve that is permanent and that transforms their communities, much more than a breath of fresh air that depends on a shift in the wind.

Derek and his wife Anna moved to Chicago last year and I got to talking to them via Twitter and have since hung out with them around the city. Derek photographed me in my studio last month and we had some great discussions about what art means to us and it actually helped me get out of a bit of a artist block that I was having. I had the pleasure of doing this interview with him and getting some more insight in to his work, enjoy!
What drew you to photography and specifically, what drew you to portraiture?
I was drawn to photography because my wife has always had a camera and for a long time. I would try explaining what I felt would make a good picture but I got tired of using words and decided to just do it myself. My dad was also a photographer who occasionally did weddings, sports, wild life, landscapes, etc. so I was sort of always around it. The more I did it, the more I realized how perfect of a fit it was for me. I even gave up playing music to focus on making pictures.
I think I was drawn to portraiture because when I was really young I would draw people, faces mainly. I think it's how I connect with people. It may sound cliche but the face and a portrait can depict a lot. It is also what feel most comfortable doing. I enjoy people and making connections. If someone is willing to sit with me and let me take their photo, then I will put the effort into getting to know them.
Your subjects seemed somewhat posed but still casual. Do you direct a person you're photographing or just let the image create it's self?
I do direct but not in a "You stand here and give me (insert emotion here)." That just isn't natural. A portrait should be a depiction of that person. I try to have as casual of environment as possible. Light conversation and having a genuine interest in my subject goes a long way. People care that you want to know about them. So, I talk and I listen and I wait for a moment where everything from their glance to their smirk and their body position align perfectly and then I take the picture.
Depending on your answer above, how do you feel this effects the overall outcome of the image?
I feel that my interaction aides in the final outcome of the image. I have had a lot of subjects who are just as excited and overflowing with ideas as I am and those pictures are ones I feel have turned out best. However, I have also had my fair share of working with people who had absolutely no interest in having their picture taken and were difficult to nudge a smile from. The pictured were technical good, insofar as they were exposed and composed well but there is no emotional aspect, no connection. I have learned to wait during a session. However, I have yet to thoroughly employ that technique. By that I mean to wait for a moment where the subject reveals something so minute about themselves in their facial expression or body language that you can't immediately pull it out of them once they are in front of your camera. So, in a way my non-action aides in the outcome of the final image.
Do you feel that moving from West Virginia to Chicago has affected your style or inspired you?
My move from West Virginia to Chicago has definitely inspired me. I have many more avenues to pursue here, but I get homesick often and this has become the driving force behind a project I'm in the beginning stages of. I see the benefits and drawbacks of living in both places, without a doubt. But, geography has nothing to do with ones ability to create things, art or otherwise.
As far as equipment goes I have used a few different set ups in order to figure out what helps me make the best images without a lot of hassle or excess getting in the way. That said, I'm finally more than satisfied with my set up. I'm using a Nikon D700 with a 35mm f/2 and a 50mm f/1.4 lens. It is a small kit but it is efficient, however I am adding at least one more focal length to round it out. I'm slowly building up my lighting set up but it will also be small and efficient.
For fun I like to read and drink coffee...a lot of coffee. I'm also a Seinfeld nerd of the encyclopedic kind.

Doctors face barriers in move to value-based care under MACRA, congressional committee told
Nov 8, 2017 11:48am

Physicians continue to face barriers and need support as they move to new payment models under MACRA, physician leaders told a congressional committee this morning.
The House Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee held the hearing to receive an update on advanced alternative payment models (APM), one of the two payment tracks under the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA).
"Providers who are ready and willing to lead change continue to face obstacles to transforming care and payment and need additional support," said Elizabeth Mitchell, vice chairperson of the Physician-Focused Payment Technical Advisory Committee (PTAC), the group set up under MACRA to evaluate new payment models submitted by physician groups.
RELATED: CMS unveils final MACRA implementation rule: 10 changes to the Quality Payment Program
In its first year of evaluating payment proposals, the PTAC has identified three common barriers that Congress must address to fully achieve the potential of MACRA and move ahead with implementation of physician-focused payment models and APMs, Mitchell said. Those include the need for:
Greater technical assistance. While physicians have experience changing care delivery, most have not been trained in the development of incentives, payment models or risk management, she said. In particular, the lack of resources and expertise to develop and implement new models threatens to leave small and rural practices out of the transition to value-based care.
Greater access to shared data. Doctors need better and more timely access to clinical and claims data to identify areas of improvement and then track quality and resource use to ensure that care innovation occurs, she said.
RELATED: MACRA final rule includes financial incentives for remote monitoring, flexibility on EHR certification
Limited-scale testing of innovative models. Like any innovation, promising new payment models require testing in the field to fully understand implementation barriers and unintended consequences before being rolled out nationally, she said.
Despite the barriers, Mitchell and Jeffrey Bailet, M.D., chairman of the PTAC, said they have seen no slowdown in proposed new payment models. Since the MACRA final rule was released a year ago, PTAC has deliberated on six proposals and voted on five, sending three models to the HHS Secretary for approval for small-scale testing or implementation, Bailet said. The committee has 14 new proposals under active review, he said.

The congressional subcommittee is committed to making MACRA and the movement to APMs a success, said U.S. Rep. Michael C. Burgess, M.D., of Texas, who chairs the health subcommittee. APMs are not the easiest path for physicians to take in the move to value-based care, but it is the best one, he said.

As well as hearing from PTAC leaders, the subcommittee also heard from physicians who have set up APMs. "While there has been concern that alternative payment models are not delivering real savings for the nation, it is clear that with a planned approach and effective execution, these models can and are working," said Daniel Varga, M.D., chief clinical officer and senior executive vice president for Texas Health Resources, who reported on the results his organization has achieved.
Last week, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services released a final rule on the Quality Payment Program that the agency said is meant to ease burdensome regulations. Among the provisions is a change to make it easier for practices to participate in advanced APMs, which may allow them to quality for greater incentive payments.

Here Is A Beautiful Cross-Stitch Visualization of How Women Voted In The Last Election
Jenna Sauers
Roopa Vasudevan, a graduate student in New York University's Interactive Telecommunications Program, used cross-stitch to represent women's voting patterns in this year's presidential election. Her work, currently on display in New York, is a series of embroidered panels, one for each of 11 chosen states. In each panel, the number of colored stitches corresponds to the percentage of women voters who voted for Mitt Romney and Barack Obama, respectively. Vasudevan used CNN exit poll data as her source. She designed the cross-stitch patterns herself and did the embroideries by hand.
Her project is called "All-American Girls," and Vasudevan wrote to tell us that it was partially inspired by our own "How To Make Your Own Naughty Cross Stitch" DIY post from November. I love that Vasudevan took such a traditional, gendered craft as cross-stitch and used it to represent data on women's political engagement. Her project juxtaposes the domestic and the political, the private and the public, and it does it very subtly and well.

You can see more of Vasudevan's embroideries here. If you're feeling crafty and/or political, she has also made the patterns she designed available for free download here.

Symphonic Power Metal band VISIONS OF ATLANTIS has had a multitude of line-up changes over the years. They have never recorded a record where the band members have been consistent from one record to the next. This tradition continues as they unleash their latest record "Ethera" through Austria's Napalm Records.
Early on their style was drenched in symphonic power metal and was similar in style to NIGHTWISH. Over the years they seem to be moving away from that style and incorporating more of a modern Rock vibe and closer in style to later day LACUNA COIL. Starting with 2011s excellent release "Delta", the band seemed to shift styles. While keeping the symphonic elements the Power Metal feel has been left behind and their song writing is better for it. What was begun on that record has now been perfected on their amazing new release "Ethera".
Vocalists Mario Plank and Maxi Nil is the perfect combination as the two play off each other brilliantly. Both singers are excellent in their own right but together they bring out the best in each other. Every song has both of them incorporating infectious melodies and harmonies; they never fight for space as their parts are divided up flawlessly. Unlike other bands that have a female and male vocal team, both singers are equally up to the task and don't clearly outshine the other.
Opener "The Ark" slams out of the gate with a haunting keyboard melody that is backed by a syncopated groove riff that will have you banging your head. Maxi's chorus melody is one of the brightest on the record. It is captivating and gorgeous. I am so glad she doesn't utilize the opera style vocals as her voice is powerful and crushes. The song is punctuated by an arpeggiated guitar solo that new guitarist Chris Tian executes beautifully.
"Vicious Circle" showcases Mario in the intro at his most tender as he is backed by a picturesque piano piece. Maxi joins in unison as a mid paced chorus kicks in that is tremendous. Another excellent guitar solo builds the song to a tremendous outro as Maxi lets loose and shows off her amazing range.
Drummer Thomas Caser shines on the slamming "Hypnotized". A driving melodic masterpiece this is the highlight of the record and maybe of their career. This track is the accumulation of what VISIONS OF ATLANTIS can accomplish with their current line-up. A gorgeous bridge section is followed by more excellent guitar soloing and finds the two vocalists utilizing their skills to their limit. Breathtaking.
"Ethera" finds VISIONS OF ATLANTIS at their best. What began on their last record has been solidified and perfected here. Front to back this is the best release of their career. Let's hope they break the streak of replacing members and we see the band continue on with this line-up. The band is at their creative peak and should garner a lot of attention with this release. Another excellent Symphonic Metal release that should stand out on the strengths of the two vocalists whom are both at the top of their genre.


It is not just hostels where hot water is difficult to find, most of the residents in Central America can not afford a water heater for their home, much less the electricity necessary to heat that cylinder of water and to maintain it at a high temperature.
Enter the "suicide shower" – a 110 volt electrical wire stuck to the end of the water pipe ahead of the shower head. As the water passes through the electrical charge, it's heated and you have warm water for as long as your shower lasts.
The temperature of the water is controlled by the amount of water pressure. You want scalding hot? Turn it to trickle. You want tepid? Turn the tap a bit more. Full power and the element can't heat it all and you'll be back to the cold showers.
Of course, the nickname "suicide shower" comes from the fact that the exposed wire is right there above the shower head. Do not adjust the shower head unless you are ready for a shocking experience – or worse.
The idea behind the at-the-source water heater is a good one. It saves energy. In reality, it saves water as well since your showers are shorter since they are comfortably warm rather than hot.
Water from the tap is not hot. If you want hot water for washing dishes, for example, you can heat it on the stove.
We have washed our clothes mostly by hand. Cold water from the tap and a bit of soap gets them clean enough. Hung on the line in the sun and steady breeze, they are fresh and dry in no time.
While the "suicide shower" may seem dangerous, it keeps one conscious of the amount of water being used and aware of one's surroundings. One does not slip into a daydream while washing under such circumstances.
Still, in these tropical climes, a cool shower is best.

I absolutely love the picture of the shower head! What an awesome little creature!
Thanks Arielle! It really is a bit scary!


Connor Doak is a lecturer in Russian at the University of Bristol. He is grateful to Ritsuko Kidera of Doshisha University for advice on Japanese culture when preparing this piece.
Yoshida's hyperbolic performance fits with the overblown aesthetic that characterizes the series as a whole. This mood is enhanced by gothic-inspired cut-scenes featuring sinister crows, as well as an emotionally laden soundtrack that mixes late Romantic composers (Grieg, Ravel, Tchaikovsky) with angry rock (Led Zeppelin, Lou Reed, Nirvana). "Paint It Black" by the Rolling Stones, with its tones of frenetic desperation, provides a fitting anthem for the series. At times, the program overindulges in this dark aesthetic, risking becoming a parody of itself. Perhaps that danger is particularly present for European audiences, whose taste is currently more attuned to Scandi crime dramas. Nordic noir, though it deals with equally gruesome themes, tends towards a slower pace, bleaker, sparse settings, and more restrained performances. Yet for the viewer equipped with knowledge of Dostoevsky's source text, the over-acting and heavily charged atmosphere appear as an asset in the Japanese miniseries, since these features have direct equivalents in the novel.

Systematic Enhancements: ZF Shows with the Efficient EcoWorld 2 the Future for DMU Drive Systems
The Irish state railroad has ordered three MTU PowerPacks with high-performance ZF transmissions
EcoWorld 2 integrates improved reversing gear with two shift positions
New wheelset gearbox allows a variety of applications
Repowering prolongs the vehicle's service life and reduces operating costs
Berlin/Friedrichshafen. At InnoTrans 2018, ZF's most recent development, the EcoWorld 2 DMU transmission, shows what the future of rail traffic will look like: quiet, economical and comfortable. This powershift transmission has six speeds, an integrated reversing function and hydraulics as well as reduced interfaces to enable retrofit to existing vehicles and thus reduce costs. A new wheelset gearbox with drive shafts allows EcoWorld 2 to be combined with various axle ratios, which opens further application fields. This development expertise has also convinced the Republic of Ireland's state railroad, Irish Rail, to order three MTU PowerPacks and in which the EcoWorld 2 transmission is integrated.
For the initial volume production, ZF has once again revised and extended EcoWorld 2. From now on, the reversing gear with two shift positions will be integrated directly in the transmission. A newly developed wheelset gearbox completes ZF's drive solution. The result is a new drive system that can be combined with a range of axle ratios. This makes it suitable for slow speed operations as well as for fast rail vehicles in long-distance transport. At higher ratios, EcoWorld 2 also handles steep gradient routes without difficulty.
Powerful, compact and cost-efficient
EcoWorld 2 is designed for a drive power maximum of 600 kW and an input torque of 2,500 Nm. It is also equipped with an optional advanced coasting function, which allows additional fuel savings of up to five percent depending on the route, engine type and load condition.
As the compound rotates at a significantly lower speed due to its increased degree of efficiency and the transmission ratios of the hydromechanical transmission, there is less noise in the railcar's interior. This significantly improves travel comfort for passengers. In addition, the transmission is prepared for various optional condition monitoring functions.
Prolongs service life, reduces operating costs
ZF's EcoWorld 2 can also be integrated into existing trains where it can deliver the previously mentioned benefits. Using this procedure, known as repowering, operators do not have to replace the entire driveline in order to extend the trains' usability. Prolonging the vehicle's service life significantly reduces operating costs.
Development Competence Leads to Volume Production Order
The new EcoWorld 2 six-speed transmission system by ZF is installed into MTU PowerPacks. Irish Rail, the Republic of Ireland's state railroad, has ordered three of the completely integrated drive systems for their diesel-powered 22000 Class Intercity train. This will operate on the 266 kilometer long route between Dublin and Cork. When compared to conventional hydrodynamic transmissions, EcoWorld 2 consumes nearly up to 20 percent less fuel on these journeys. It also reduces CO2 emissions to the same extent.

The Southern Railway
Please note, many of the mail services we use to ship our products have reported delays. More information can be found on the FedEx, UPS, and The Mail Group websites.
There was a time, particularly during the 1970s, when virtually every railroad enthusiast was, in some manner, a Southern Railway fan. The cause for such notoriety was the Southern's long-running steam excursions, a program that began in 1966 and was eventually discontinued by successor Norfolk Southern in 1994.
As spectacular and successful as the steam program was, it did not adequately touch on the extraordinary success of the Southern as a railroad system. The company that gave a "Green Light to Innovations" was always at the forefront of the US railroad industry by virtually any metric one could use. Rather than being remembered for its grand, green and gold-striped Ps-4 Pacific types, Saluda Grade, or the streamlined Southerner of 1941, it was the "modern" Southern that commanded respect. Southern was an early convert to diesel-electric traction. The company's management led the way into the 1960s with remote midtrain, mechanized track gangs, welded rail, and a fleet of specialized freight cars to handle all types of commodities and finished goods. There was also one of the earliest computer-driven car location systems, a virtually spotless safety record, and ground-breaking regulatory accomplishments that proved to be precursors to today's largely unregulated industry. Today's railroad industry is now largely free from the archaic constraints that kept it from being fully competitive with other forms of transportation, thanks in large part to Southern's innovations.
This book, the combined efforts of 75 photographers plus input from some of the leading historians of the railroad that "Served the South," is a division-by-division visual tour of the work-a-day Southern. This 256-page volume, with 380 outstanding color images, and 12 detailed maps, is the most comprehensive visual history of the modern Southern ever published. Chapter introductions provide context to better understand each geographic region's traffic base, its lines and terminals, and of course its trains. It's all here as well, from first class freights with nearly 200 cars and midtrain power, plus the Southern Crescent, on down to the most lowly of yard switchers, local freights and mine runs. And of note is the foreword written by Wick Moorman, who started his distinguished railroad career with the Southern.

Tim Tebow Joins Fan With Cerebral Palsy as She Sings 'God Bless America': 'He is the Real Deal'
News 3:02 PM PDT, August 15, 2017 - Inside Edition

Tim Tebow continues to stun in minor league baseball, but no matter how he performs on the field, he has become a favorite in fans' hearts.

In yet another heartfelt moment, the player known for his Christian values joined Jillian Joyce, a fan with cerebral palsy, as she sang "God Bless America" prior to a game Saturday night.
The moment came as Tebow's team, the St. Lucie Mets, took on the Tampa Yankees — both affiliated with the two New York professional clubs that bear the same names.
Jillian's mother, Lillian, told InsideEdition.com she was approached to sing at the Florida ballpark by the Yankees but her daughter is a fan of Tebow, and asked if he could join her in song.
"Since she was singing 'God Bless America,' it was the perfect time to meet him," the proud mom said. "And he is the real deal. I mean, he came and met her before the game, and spent all the time she wanted speaking to her and we got great photos. He was just amazing. When she sang 'God Bless America,' she asked him to come sing with her and he came and sang with her, which was great."
"I asked him to stand close to me," Jillian added.
