Oil giants lobby COP-host UK to back gas as 'necessary compromise'
Documents reveal how Exxon, BP and other oil majors made their pitch to a UK trade minister over dinner in Houston, Texas
A group of America's leading oil companies told a UK minister that the British government should champion natural gas as a "necessary compromise" in the effort to prevent climate breakdown, according to documents obtained by Unearthed.
Representatives of BP, Shell, Chevron, Exxon, and Equinor said they wanted the UK government's help to position themselves as "a vital part of the solution" to climate change.
On a diplomatic mission to Houston, Texas, in February 2020, the then-trade minister Conor Burns met with the oil majors over dinner to discuss the UK's leadership of the upcoming "COP26" UN climate summit.
Notes from the meal, obtained using freedom of information rules, show the companies said they "recognise the need to accelerate" the energy transition, discussing investments in renewables, storage capacity and carbon capture technology.
But they also pressed an argument they have made for many years: that the fossil fuel natural gas is and will be a 'transition' fuel.
"There needs to be greater recognition of the role of gas in transition," the notes read, "it is cleaner than coal and fundamental to the Texas economy."
"Moving the US and the developing world from coal to gas is a necessary compromise, while they make inroads in affordability of genuinely clean energy."
The notes, which were drafted for Burns by a senior UK diplomat based in Houston, added: "These companies told you they want to work with the UK, including during our leadership of COP26.
"They need support from governments like ours so they can be seen as a vital part of the solution to future energy provision.
"They want transition without decimating our economies or stunting the growth of emerging economies. The public need to be given realistic expectations on the transition process; energy projects have long lead in times."
The diplomat added: "It is too easy to demonise the industry, but this will not help resolve the problem; though all [the oil companies present at the dinner] admitted they had to be better at telling their story."
The news comes after the International Energy Agency (IEA) announced that the exploitation and development of new oil and gas fields must stop this year if countries are to meet the widely-adopted target of net zero emissions by 2050.
Luke Murphy, from left-leaning UK think tank IPPR said: "Gas isn't a 'necessary compromise' on the road to net zero, it's a fossil fuel and another stepping-stone on the path to climate disaster.
"Internally, oil and gas companies will be fully aware their bid for gas to be adopted as a so-called 'transition fuel' flies in the face of established climate science, which they have known about for decades. This is climate delayism."
Green Party MP Caroline Lucas said: "This Government's secret meetings with oil companies risk- damaging the UK's credibility as hosts of COP26. Instead of pacifying polluters and being driven by the pursuit of corporate profit, the UK's trade policy should be a force for good in the world – with delivering on the Paris Agreement at its heart."
In statements given to Channel 4, the oil companies at the dinner all reiterated their support for the Paris Agreement, saying that though they back the move away from fossil fuels they believe natural gas will play a key role in reducing global emissions, particularly as an alternative to coal power.
BP said: "We advocate for natural gas in meetings around the world because it's an important part of our business and has a critical role to play in the transition to net zero."
Both Exxon and Chevron stressed that, even in its low-carbon scenarios, the IEA still forecasts natural gas will be part of the global energy mix come 2050. A Chevron spokesman told Channel 4: "One lower-carbon scenario against which we test our portfolio is the IEA's Sustainable Development Scenario.
"Under the SDS, although natural gas demand declines across Europe, the Americas, and the Middle East, it continues to grow in Asia, and accounts for about 23 percent of global energy demand in 2040."
Exxon added: "The power sector's switch from coal to natural gas is a main reason why US emissions have declined more than those of any other country since 2000. Many national and state governments have included a shift to natural gas in their carbon-reduction programs, recognizing the contribution that natural gas can make."
A Foreign Office spokesperson said: "To achieve net zero we need to speak to a variety of partners across different sectors, including those in the energy industry.
"This was a routine engagement with the energy industry focused on the importance of the transition to a clean energy future. We discussed their investments in renewable energies and their decarbonisation plans, and we were not lobbied.
"We welcome new commitments to decarbonise made by these companies since this meeting."

Let's make today the day, that we will set our selves a new goal, or make the first move on a goal that we have always dreamed of.
Dreams are great, but it's action which brings them to realisation, and lets start that action now.
Our first step should be to define the goal, to put it into the forefront of our minds, and get our brains to start thinking about it both consciously and subconsciously. Our brains are massively powerful tools, lets put it to use.
Secondly we need to come up with plan, sufficient to at least know what the first steps are and then we should start.
All big goals start with small steps, if our goals require too big a first step, it's likely that we will become daunted at the prospect, and put off starting and ultimately fail to progress.
So identify a small step, make that step, then look to make a second step.
Nothing motivates like making progress, even small progress, so get started on that goal.
Share your goal with friends, family and colleagues, they may have ideas on how you could achieve it, they may offer help an support, they may even have achieved the goal themselves and be able to provide advice.
Dare to dream, start to act, and then succeed.
I have just recently achieved a few of my dreams, I have written a book and run a Marathon, both long journeys which before I started I thought were possibly unachievable, but with a plan, small starts and action both have been achieved.
My dream is to speak on Leadership on TED – today I plan to Seize the Day, create the plan and put that plan in action.
My first steps will be to start to think about what I would say, and start to research on how you get to speak on TED.
What are you goals, what are you dreaming of, let me know and if I can help, support or provide guidance and advice I will be happy to do it.


VIENNA – Under pressure from a U.N. nuclear agency probe, Iran is urging member countries to revamp the agency to dilute the power of nations that fear Iran may be trying to make atomic weapons.
The proposal, which criticizes "the limited, unbalanced and inequitable geographical representation" of the International Atomic Energy Agency board, is unlikely to be approved by the agency's board, which will hardly agree to weaken itself.
But it likely will give Iran and its supporters a platform at next month's general conference, attended by about 150 nations.
The bid is outlined in a document submitted for the conference and appears to be part of Tehran's broader efforts to weaken the IAEA's attempts to follow up on suspicions that it has experimented with components of a nuclear weapons program.
It calls for expanding the IAEA's board, which is now dominated by Western nations that strongly support the agency's probe of Iran's nuclear program.
Iran says such allegations are based on fabricated intelligence from the U.S., its Western allies and Israel. Tehran insists that all of its nuclear work is peaceful.

The Oxford Movement and Jane Eyre
The Victorian period from the mid to late 1800's was a time of internal religious turmoil for England. In the Anglican Church there were many different groups competing to define the doctrine and practice of the national religion. The church was politically divided in three general categories following: the High Church, which was the most conservative; the Middle, or Broad Church, which was more liberal; and the Low Church, which was the Evangelical wing of the Anglican Church. Within the High Church there were also differences of opinion on the true nature of the Church as a whole. It is from this conservative branch of the Anglican Church where the men of the Oxford Movement came.
The Oxford Movement began as a movement to reform the Church of England in 1833. The name is taken from the Oxford University fellows who led the movement. Among these men were John Keble, Edward Pusey and John Henry Newman. All of them were extremely loyal to the Anglican Church and were concerned with the government's interference in its affairs. They also were worried about the liberal tendencies of the Evangelicals as a threat to the Church. The Oxford movement thought that they needed to lead the Church back to the "true" church of the fourth century AD; drawing on the patristic writings of St. Augustine, St. Jerome and St. Bernard, their aim was to revive the ritual and mysticism of the early church.
The Oxford Movement's beginning is usually associated with July 14, 1833, which was the date John Keble gave his sermon on "National Apostasy." But, more importantly the movement took its roots with the publication of the "Tracts for the Times" by Newman, the first of which was published September 9, 1833, and the last, Tract 90, in 1841. The Tracts meant to remind the English to understand the church as an independent body, not as an appendage to the state. The Tractarians wanted the movement to offer a compromise between Roman Catholicism and Evangelicalism. The Anglicans were distrustful of the Catholic tendency because of the power of the Pope. On the other hand, they did not embrace the evangelical doctrine of universal damnation. The Oxford Movement and its leaders had the best intentions to reform the Church, but it seems to have been most successful in the way it pursued faith as "an impulse of the heart and conscience not an inquiry of the head" (Chadwick 12).

A Comparison of Charlotte Bronte Biographies
Essentially its close association with the Roman Catholic traditions was the main reason for its failure to appeal to the majority. It is the skepticism and ambivalence toward this religious movement which is illustrated in Jane Eyre.
Jane is surrounded by religion yet is never identified with any particular Protestant denomination, nor does Bronte ever endorse either extreme in the Anglican Church. Although she is willing to show the High Church movement and the Evangelical movement in a bad light she refuses to commit Jane to any doctrine other than her own moral conscience.
The High Church physically resembled that of the Catholic Church with its emphasis on the altar and Mass. Jane's experience in the red room at Gateshead show Bronte's fear of the masculine power of the Church and the anxiety over Rome. Red is universally associated with the Roman Catholic Church and is the color of ordained Cardinals. The bed itself as described by Jane "stood out like a tabernacle in the center..." (20; ch. 2); the rest of the room--drapes, bed covers, and carpet--repeats the color scheme of red. This room is also heavily associated with ghosts and superstition; in Jane's heightened sense of fear she believes that she sees the spirit of her dead uncle.
These images clearly show the Anglican dread of Rome and the Papal control that the Tractarians were stirring up in their theological quest to recover the medieval doctrines of the Church. Not only did the High Churchmen want to recover the old sacramental visage inside the church, but the 1830's also saw the era of the Gothic Revival in England. This was meant to restore the look of the church to that of the Twelfth and Thirteenth centuries; typically those facades of the Gothic churches built in catholic France. Not all High Anglicans saw this as a positive mood, though. Edward Pusey, a Tractarian, saw this emphasis on exterior beautification as a distraction to the true meaning of the Christian faith. He staunchly defended the Church as a body of humble members in Christ, not to be compounded with a certain building, or architecture.
The fierce rivalry between France and England is embedded in all European history. French Catholicism versus Anglican Protestantism is just one aspect of this feud, but most certainly anti-Catholic sentiments in England are echoed in this novel. It is Jane's charge to "anglicize" little Adele to English standards. And it is Rochester's comments about Celine Varens that show the distrust toward the French (a woman, in this case) as deceitful and treacherous. He goes so far as to say he was spellbound by Celine, whom he calls a "Gallic sylph" (160; ch. 15), as if her attraction were not of this world. Rochester's confidence of this intimacy to Jane supports the humility Pusey referred to as the basis of faith for the Church of England. Rochester looks to Jane's simplicity to "refresh" (163, ch. 15) his spirit.
Bronte's most revealing statement on the Catholic tendencies within the Church and what it meant for the future of the Church is through the character of Eliza Reed. Jane's visit to the dying Aunt Reed finds the Reed sisters in quite different circumstances from their last encounter. Eliza Reed, now without any family money, is in the same position Jane was in when she left Gateshead. Eliza has nowhere to go now that her mother is dead, and John has squandered the family fortune. She looks for a solution in the High Church movement toward the ritualism and fundamental Catholic traditions: " I shall devote myself for a time to the examination of the Roman Catholic dogmas, and to careful study of the workings of their system; if I find it to be, as I half suspect it is, the one best calculated to ensure the doing of all things decently and in order, I shall embrace the tenets of Rome and probably take the veil" (272; vol. II; ch. 7). She really has only one other choice other than becoming a nun, and that is to become, like Jane, a governess. With her genteel upbringing, it is not surprising she chooses the lesser of two evils. It is Jane's reaction to this conversion that proves Bronte had little, if any, sympathy with the movement toward Catholicism and the Oxford Movement, especially after Newman's conversion in 1845. First, Bronte uses the dialogue between Eliza and Georgianna to show the fanaticism of this type of religious fervor. Eliza turns completely to the Church and away from her family. She goes as far as to say "if the whole human race, ourselves excepted, were swept away, and we two stood alone on the earth, I would leave you in the old world, a betake myself to the new" (265; vol. II; ch. 6). Jane herself recognizes that the life Eliza has chosen for herself will resemble what she once experienced at Lowood, that of an "inmate of a convent cell" (273; vol. II; ch. 7). It is this prison imagery that is recurrent in the novel. This type of atmosphere is also typical of the colleges of Oxford. It "was a thoroughly introverted community, socially, sexually, intellectually, theologically - a positive greenhouse in which plants could grow to heights not possible in the climate outside" (Gilmour, 77). Here the situation is made up of men, and Gilmour seems to say that it was a good thing, but in the same situation for women it only led to a life of chosen servitude.
Jane Eyre's independence from any professed religious tenet reveals that Charlotte Bronte was well aware of the Oxford Movement and is warning against any and all kinds of religious extremes. In her preface to Jane Eyre, she says "narrow human doctrines, that tend to elevate and magnify a few, should not be substituted for the world-redeeming creed of Christ" (6). If there was any beneficial, lasting impression of the Oxford Movement on Bronte, it would be the incorporation of individual conscience as a guide to morality, with interpretation of Scripture as given as the true path to faith.

New details emerge about Government's Pike River re-entry plan
Duncan Garner revealed new details on The AM Show. Credits: Image - Getty; Video - The AM Show
Duncan Garner has revealed new details about the Pike River mine re-entry, a promise made by Winston Peters in 2016.
While there is no official date yet, Pike River Minister Andrew Little said in June that re-entry into the mine would likely happen by the end of the year, and now new details have emerged about the operation.
Garner revealed on The AM Show Tuesday morning that Government staff are already working on the re-entry, and that the date of re-entry into the mine will be confirmed later this month.
Pike River families blast police investigation
Pike River Mine re-entry death statement already prepared
Pike River mine recovery attempt could start by end of 2018
"Hearts on the wounded West Coast are about to breathe a massive sigh of relief," he said of the families of the 29 victims who lost their lives after the mine exploded in 2010.
"It will be a strange jubilation, won't it? They've been waiting eight years to hear the words, but as I understand this, the Government will say, 'We're going back into the Pike River'," said Garner.
He said 14 staff are now working full-time at the mine location to make re-entry possible. The fourteenth member of staff "started yesterday", said Garner, adding that another "five miners are due to start shortly".
"That's not a Government walking away, is it? That's a Government walking towards the Pike River entrance through the 30m seal and into the unknown," Garner told The AM Show.
He praised Mr Little for treating the victims' families with the "utmost respect", and said he hopes the re-entry will grant them "everything they've been waiting for".
"This is, in my view, already Andrew Little's legacy. He kept his word - he kept a promise when others walked away. But most of all, he treated those families with kindness and with dignity," said Garner.
New Zealand First leader Winston Peters promised Pike River victims' families in December 2016 that he would be the first person to re-enter the mine drift - the 2km long shaft which leads to the mind itself. He reaffirmed his pledge in June.
Police have not ruled out criminal charges being laid based on any new evidence that emerges if the re-entry takes place. Garner said the police are on standby with their forensic team.
Families of the victims blasted the police in September after an investigation was launched into whether police were responsible for a second explosion at the mine.
The investigation probed whether a conveyor belt inside the mine was started up, which could have created a spark which ignited methane and ended all hope of finding any of the men inside alive.
Official documents showed authorities considered turning the belt on to give survivors a chance to ride it out, although they cautioned it was a "moderate risk" which could ignite a secondary explosion.
"The families may get answers, but they also may not," said Garner, considering the ramifications of re-entry.
"Is there any evidence that suggests why the mine blew up? Are there any bodies there?"
"I hope it's everything they've been waiting for."

Q: Trouble calling SystemParametersInfo Recently I've been trying to call the SystemParametersInfo method from managed code, without any success.
The problem is that, after calling the method, the method returns false (indicating failure), however GetLastError (retrieved by  Marshal.GetLastWin32Error()) is 0.
I tried to invoke the method from C++ as a test (with the exact same parameters), and it works completely fine from there.
The P/Invoke declaration of the method is this:
[DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
[return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
internal static extern bool SystemParametersInfo(SPI uiAction, int uiParam, ref STICKYKEYS pvParam, SPIF fWinIni);

internal struct STICKYKEYS
{
  public int cbSize;
  public int dwFlags;
}

And the invocation is as follows:
NativeMethods.STICKYKEYS stickyKeys = default(NativeMethods.STICKYKEYS);
bool result = NativeMethods.SystemParametersInfo(NativeMethods.SPI.SPI_GETSTICKYKEYS, StickyKeysSize, ref stickyKeys, 0);
int error = Marshal.GetLastWin32Error();

The SPI.SPI_GETSTICKYKEYS is0x003A (as seen on MSDN).
Here the result is false, and the error returned is 0.
Also this is complied as a 64-bit executable if that matters.
I'm completely at my wit's end, do you have any idea what I might be doing wrong?

A: As GSerg pointed it out to me, my issue was that I need to pass in the size of the struct both directly as a parameter, and as the cbSize member of the struct that I passed in by reference.
The correct code is:
        int stickyKeysSize = Marshal.SizeOf(typeof (NativeMethods.STICKYKEYS));
        NativeMethods.STICKYKEYS stickyKeys = new NativeMethods.STICKYKEYS {cbSize = stickyKeysSize, dwFlags = 0};
        bool result = NativeMethods.SystemParametersInfo(NativeMethods.SPI.SPI_GETSTICKYKEYS, stickyKeysSize, ref stickyKeys, 0);
        if (!result) throw new System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception();
        return stickyKeys;

Gorey was a Trekkie? I know I shouldn't feel validated, but somehow, I do.
Gorey had a voracious appetite for art in all media, particularly books, ballet, and movies, but also quite a bit of television. This is the first I've seen that he had a phase where he watched ST obsessively (and I would say that it didn't persist); if you can believe it, he spoke more often of The Golden Girls and Buffy The Vampire Slayer.
For some reason my brain always wants to file Gorey in the 1800s. But then it also gets Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise mixed up. Thanks, brain.

Главная 7 Child development 7 How to tell a child about the Great Patriotic War
How to tell a child about the Great Patriotic War
In the 20th century, children knew much more about war than they did to children of the 21st century, because the schools required the appropriate lessons, which were accompanied by real stories of veterans and participants in the war. Participants of events willingly came to schools, and it was possible to talk with them. There were also excursions to places of military glory.
The television regularly showed films about the war, and among the books, mandatory for reading, were "Hot Snow", "Vasily Terkin" and many others. Every elementary school student knew the hero pioneers.
And there were moms and dads, grandparents – living witnesses and participants of the Great Patriotic War.
It cannot be said that the situation has drastically changed in the opposite direction. And yet today is another time and other values.
But our children should know as much as possible about the feat of their forefathers, in order to pass this information on to their children and grandchildren, otherwise it will be lost permanently and irrevocably.
You can begin to acquaint the child with the history of their country from the preschool age, only this must be done taking into account the children's peculiarities of attention and perception. Such conversations need to be prepared in advance, carefully selecting words and emotional message according to the child's age, so that he perceives the story with interest, and not as everyday information ("Well, it was and was") or a frightening story, after which he could not sleep at night. "Arm yourself" with special literature, including those focused on children's age.
Also, before or after such a conversation, you can watch a film about the war with a child that is understandable to him.
How to translate the idea into practice, we now will tell, answering the five most common children's questions about the Great Patriotic War.
"Why was the war? Why do people fight at all? "
In some countries there are rulers who called, and even today can call their people to war. Taking advantage of the plight of most people, they deceive people and instill in them the idea, for example, that war will solve their life problems: there will be a lot of land to build good houses, a lot of jobs, a lot of money, a lot of food, there will be no crime and tons .d
Or war will help eliminate the "enemies" who oppress and oppress, who have the "wrong" faith or way of life. Therefore, the main responsibility for the start of wars lies with the rulers – the heads of state. But the Second World War was special because the fascists — those with whom we fought — were led by a mentally unhealthy ruler, his name was Adolf Hitler.
He wanted to destroy all the people he considered inferior. And people were killed for their nationality, for the "wrong" name and even for the color of their eyes and hair!
But we must not forget that war always brings great misfortune for the people who unleashed it. In the Second World War, many millions of ordinary Germans, instead of well-being and freedom, found death and suffering.
Not a single war solved the problems for the solution of which it was unleashed.
"Why were we attacked?"
The fascists understood that as long as the Soviet Union existed (this is how our state was called before), there would be a major obstacle on their path to world domination, and they wanted to take over the whole world! Therefore, they treacherously attacked our country in order for our strong state to cease to exist in order to enslave and destroy our people, to seize our lands, cities and natural resources.
"In military photographs, many people are in medals and orders – what does this mean? And what are the stripes on the uniform of the soldiers? "
During the war many feats were accomplished. Our people, defending their homeland from the fascists, showed miracles of heroism.
People in medals are those who fought valiantly and bravely, who conscientiously fulfilled their military duty, not sparing their health and even their lives. The government of our country awards such people orders and medals. Veterans usually wear these orders and medals for holidays, for example, on February 23 or Victory Day on May 9.
In everyday life (or when there are so many awards), instead of the medals themselves and orders, veterans sometimes wear so-called medal trims: rectangular substrates covered with sash. Each award has a medal that corresponds to it.
Read more about this in special books.
"Now the Germans are bad too? They were fascists! "
Here you need to explain to the child that the people who today live in Germany are not bad, because they are not fascists. They did not fight with our country, and they are not responsible for the mistakes of their rulers, fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers. The child needs to show the difference between the Germans and the Nazis.
The fact is that a fascist is not a nationality, but a cruel man, a sadist, who is willing to consciously destroy other people. Many Germans, as they could, resisted the fascists. In Germany, many good people died who wanted to stop Hitler and prevent him from unleashing a terrible world war.
Even if we talk about the fascist army, some of its soldiers went to the front not because they were bad and evil, but because in the event of refusal there was a real threat of the destruction of their loved ones and relatives.
"What is Auschwitz"?
Theme camp is one of the most difficult and difficult for the child. How, without risk of inflicting psychological trauma on him, explaining why and why some people mocked other people?
For emotional and receptive children, such conversations should be generally postponed until adolescence. Speaking with the child on this topic, you need to find the right words in order not to overload him emotionally and not to intimidate him. We can restrict ourselves to the words that the concentration camp is a place in which during the war people died from being too hardly treated.
And this memory for us, the living, is important so that people never return to it and do everything possible so that peace and tranquility reign in our land.
March 28-29, 2015 in the historic castle of Dachau (Germany) an event was held on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the liberation of the Dachau concentration camp and the 110th anniversary of the birth of Victor Frankl (a psychologist-psychologist who passed the horrors of several camps and survived). The program included speeches by prominent people, psychologists, logotherapists from around the world, lectures and round tables, a concert.
Memorial events, wreath-laying and Kaddish prayer were held at the memorial complex on the territory of the concentration camp.

The Real Reason So Many Mall Department Stores Are Closing
By Hope Ngo/May 27, 2021 10:25 pm EST
As vaccination rates rise, and infection rates fall, many of us may be aching to go outside and pick up where we left off more than a year ago. Yet, as businesses start to reopen, we may discover that the world that we're returning to isn't exactly the same world as the one we left behind — and this is especially true of our favorite malls and their anchor department stores.
Since February of last year, we've seen many of our favorite retail brands file for bankruptcy — including Brooks Brothers, Lane Bryant, J.Crew, and L'Occitaine (via NBC). But as CB Insights points out, department stores are at bigger risk, because they went into the pandemic already crippled by the decline in foot traffic, the rise of online shopping as well as the presence of sizable corporate debt in their books. These former department store giants include Neiman Marcus, Lord and Taylor, JCPenney,and New York's iconic Century 21.
Department store woes began long before the pandemic
Insider believes that the retail apocalypse didn't actually start with the pandemic, nor did it begin with the rise of Amazon — its roots go back much further than that, and to the 2008 financial crisis. When the housing bubble burst, tens of thousands lost their jobs and with that, the ability to spend. Because it took a while for the country to come back from the devastating impact of the Great Recession, a number of big name department stores ended up going to private investment firms to get the cash they needed to keep going.
In one sense, asking these firms for a bailout made sense because, as analyst Philip Emma told Retail Dive in 2018, these institutional investors brought something to the table. "You have some firms that specialize in certain industries because they've done those deals, and they know the companies and they know the industry," he said. As a result, store management were likely to hear pitches from big investors that outlined their experience in owning retailers, including knowing landlords, distributors and suppliers.
Retailers entered a Faustian deal with private equity firms
While the deals gave these department stores the quick cash they needed to stay afloat, it also meant that they were taking on debt, and plenty of it. Just to name a few examples: The New York Times points out that at the time the coronavirus pandemic first struck, J.Crew carried $1.7 billion in debt, while Neiman Marcus was in the red for $5 billion. While they were able to pay off hundreds of millions in interest and fees when times were good, the means to settle what they owed vanished when people stopped shopping. Worse, because they were busy trying to stay ahead of creditors, they weren't agile enough to move online, so they could compete with the likes of Amazon.
As Duke University School of Law's Elisabeth de Fonteney explained, "Much of the difficulty that the retail sector is experiencing has been aggravated by private equity involvement. To keep up with everybody's switch to online purchasing, there really needed to be some big capital investments and changes made, and because these companies were so debt strapped when acquired by private equity firms, they didn't have capital to make these big shifts."
The impact of losing a department store is significant for a mall
Losing a department store might not sound like much — but the impact of that vacuum is significant for the mall that leases that anchor store space, and for the smaller retailers that operate around it. University of Connecticut's Center for Real Estate's John M. Clapp told Insider in 2017 that a mall can suffer once a department store shuts, because "once a department store goes vacant that tends to be contagious because all those middle-mall stores — the nail salons and the jewelry stores — they are all depending on the traffic coming from the bigger retail stores." As a result, 25% of malls could be closed in the next five years (via CNBC).
But it's not all bad news for the industry. As Forbes points out, the country's family-owned or family-managed department stores might have gotten battered and bruised by shelter-in-place orders, but they managed to adapt to changing times. Nordstrom, for instance, reported a successful shift from brick-and-mortar to a souped-up e-commerce platform. Dillards has also done well for itself, as have discount retailers like Kohl's, which it said added a head-turning 2 million new customers, thanks to a partnership with Amazon (via CNBC).
The retail apocalypse is far from over, but when it is, surviving department stores are going to be different from the way we knew them to be. What shape that takes will be something we will find out soon enough.

Pyer Moss designer Kerby Jean-Raymond is currently being hailed as the most important young designer in American fashion.
Raymond had a banner year in 2018. He presented a deservedly lauded collection in September at the Weeksville Heritage Center in Brooklyn, the site of one of America's first free Black communities. He dressed Tracee Ellis Ross when she hosted the American Music Awards, and ravished Issa Rae in sapphire sequins when she hosted the CFDAs. He took home $400,000 and priceless prestige as the winner of the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Award. He famously met Anna Wintour in a t-shirt that read "If you are just learning about Pyer Moss we forgive you."
So what is Raymond, arguably the buzziest designer in New York, doing for New York Fashion Week? As he confirmed to New York Times fashion critic Vanessa Friedman, that would be nothing. There will be no Pyer Moss show this season. "I have something to say, but I am not quite ready to say it," said Raymond. He added that he wants to end the erasure of minorities in fashion, and that he thinks he knows how to do it — "the purpose of design is to solve problems, and I think I have figured out how to use this tool to solve this problem." There is a plan for September.
Steven Kolb, the chief executive of the CFDA, said that not showing was "clearly a risk."
"He [Raymond] doesn't see the need to be chained to a traditional idea of a designer business. Whether he's right, I don't know."
Raymond, who told Friedman that he sees his line as an "art project" and wants to eventually be named the creative director of a large brand, seems to know what he's doing. "No one needs so much stuff," he said. "They need emotion."

Home Health Common Medications Dogs with the MDR1 Mutation: Drug Sensitivities
Dogs with the MDR1 Mutation: Drug Sensitivities
MDR1 mutation affects more than just Collies – and involves more drugs than ivermectin.
Mary Straus
Published: November 13, 2012 Updated: March 21, 2019
[Updated January 9, 2019]
Most dog owners are aware that Collies and other herding breeds may be sensitive to ivermectin, used for heartworm prevention and to treat certain parasites. But did you know that these dogs can also be sensitive to a number of other drugs, and that other breeds can also be affected?
It's been known since 1983 that ivermectin can cause neurologic toxicity in some, but not all, Collies. In affected dogs, toxicity is caused by doses of ivermectin that are 1/200th of the dose needed to cause toxicity in normal dogs. Symptoms of neurologic toxicity can include uncoordination or loss of balance (ataxia), depression, disorientation, excess salivation, pupil dilation, nystagmus (abnormal movement of the eyes), blindness, tremors, recumbency (inability to get up), coma, respiratory compromise, and even death.
But the next big accomplishment in gaining an understanding of exactly what was responsible for the toxic effects of ivermectin in some dogs came in 2001, when Katrina Mealey, DVM, PhD, DACVIM, DACVCP, at Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine, identified a mutation in the MDR1 gene that causes ivermectin sensitivity. The discovery led to WSU's development of a test that can detect the mutant gene, so that dogs who are susceptible to this toxicity can be identified.
The MDR1 Mutation Test
Dogs can have either two copies of the defective gene (homozygous, double recessive), or one defective gene and one normal gene (heterozygous). Dogs with two copies will be most severely affected. Dogs with one copy are less sensitive (able to tolerate a higher dose before adverse effects are seen), but they are more sensitive than normal dogs.
Further research revealed that dogs with the MDR1 mutation are sensitive to a number of different drugs, not just ivermectin. Melissa Best, DVM, who went to veterinary school at WSU, explains, "MDR stands for 'multidrug resistance.' The protein encoded by this gene is P-glycoprotein (PGP) and is an important protein for keeping potential neurotoxins from entering the brain. The MDR1 mutation means that this protein is improperly coded and cannot do its job."
The MDR1 mutation allows drugs to build to toxic levels in the brain, and is now referred to as "multidrug sensitivity." Toxicity may occur from a single high dose or frequent low doses of problem drugs. Topical application of certain drugs can also cause toxicity, and the effects may last longer, but it generally takes higher doses.
The discoverer of the mutation of the MDR1 gene and establishment of testing procedures, WSU is the sole patent holder for the test to detect the mutant gene. The test requires only a simple, non-invasive cheek swab that you can collect yourself and send to WSU's Veterinary Clinical Pharmacology Laboratory (VCPL). The test costs $70, with a discount for more than four dogs. It can be performed on any dog, including mixed breeds, at any age after weaning. The test will identify whether a dog has one or two copies of the defective gene. It takes about two weeks to get results.
Heartworm Preventives and the MDR1 Mutation
All heartworm preventive medications can affect dogs with the MDR1 mutation, including ivermectin (Heartgard), milbemycin (Interceptor, Sentinel), selamectin (Revolution), and moxidectin (ProHeart, Advantage Multi). The very low doses used for heartworm prevention, however, should not cause any harm, even to dogs with two copies of the defective gene.
"I don't know of any homeopathic or naturopathic alternatives to these drugs, particularly for heartworm," says Dr. Best. "While I am very pro-holistic care, the risk of death from heartworms is greater than the risk of the drugs (especially at the low doses used for prevention). I recommend using commercial heartworm preventatives under the direction of a veterinarian."
The higher doses of these medications that are used to treat demodectic mange, sarcoptic mange, ear mites, and other parasites, however, should be avoided in all affected dogs. Generic ivermectin preparations such as Ivomec 1% solution should not be given to affected dogs, as the potential for toxicity from the wrong dosage is too great (the instructions on many websites result in dosages at least 10 times too high). Long-acting injectable products such as ProHeart 6 may also be problematic for affected dogs.
Toxicity can also occur from eating the manure of other animals, such as horses or sheep, after they are treated for parasites with products containing ivermectin. Pesticides with ivermectin used to treat a home or yard may cause toxicity if an affected dog is exposed to the area afterward.
Ivermectin has the most potential for toxicity. Dogs with normal MDR1 genes can usually tolerate oral dosages as high as 2,500 mcg/kg of body weight before signs of toxicity are seen, while dogs with two copies of the defective MDR1 gene can tolerate only up to 100 mcg/kg of oral ivermectin. No toxicity was seen when affected dogs were given 28 to 35.5 mcg/kg monthly for one year. (For comparison, Heartgard contains 6 to 12 mcg/kg.)
Toxicity has been seen in affected dogs receiving oral doses that were 30 times the heartworm preventive dose of moxidectin and 10 times the regular dose of milbemycin. Selamectin caused toxicity at 2.5 times the recommended dose when that amount was given orally, but higher doses are tolerated when the product is applied topically, as directed.
Other avermectins can also cause toxicity, including doramectin (Dectomax), eprinomectin (Eprinex), and abamectin.
Spinosad, a flea-control medication included in Comfortis, Trifexis, and other products, increases the risk of neurological toxicity even in normal dogs when combined with high doses of ivermectin (and possibly other drugs) used to treat parasites. While theoretically safe, use caution when combining Heartgard or other ivermectin heartworm preventive drugs with products containing spinosad for affected dogs. Do not combine high doses of ivermectin with spinosad for any dog.
Other Drugs and MDR1
Some additional drugs are known to cause problems for dogs with the MDR1 mutation, while others are suspected to be problematic. A few drugs affected by PGP appear to be safe to use in normal doses. "There are many known drugs which are pumped out of the brain by p-glycoprotein," says Dr. Best. "However, not all seem to cause toxicity in mutant dogs. Clearly more research is needed to understand the mechanisms at work."
Drugs that are known to affect or may affect dogs with the MDR1 mutation include some used to treat cancer, pain, parasites, bacterial infections, diarrhea, vomiting, and anxiety, as well as pre-anesthetic drugs. In addition to ivermectin, the most commonly used problem drugs are acepromazine (Ace), butorphanol (Torbutrol, Torbugesic), and loperamide (Imodium). Most of these drugs require a prescription, but loperamide, an anti-diarrheal medication, is available in over-the-counter preparations.
MDR1 Breeding Considerations
Ideally, only dogs with no copies of the MDR1 mutation would be used for breeding. This may not be feasible or even optimal in some cases, however, particularly in heavily affected breeds, where the rest of the gene pool would be too limited, which leads to other problems. Any dog with the mutation may pass it along to their offspring, but dogs with just one copy of the mutation can also produce normal puppies, particularly when bred to dogs that do not carry the mutation at all. In this way, the population of affected dogs can be reduced through subsequent generations.
Even if you don't plan to breed, all dogs from affected breeds should be tested for the MDR1 gene for their own protection. Mixed-breed dogs from affected breeds or whose parentage is unknown should also be tested, as it's impossible to tell for sure just by looking at a dog what its ancestry might be.
Before the genetic test became available, vets often repeated the adage, "White feet, don't treat!" as a reminder that such dogs might be at risk, since many herding breeds and mixes have white feet. This is not reliable, however, as some dogs with white feet may have normal genes, and dogs with non-white feet may be affected by the mutation. Dr. Mealy recommends testing all mixed-breed dogs with unknown breed status, as one exposure to a drug to which they are sensitive could be fatal.
"The biggest problem I have seen with MDR1 mutants is accidental exposure by owners who were unaware of the problem," says Dr. Best. "I have seen several dogs die from this problem after being exposed to ivermectin products.
"The worse case that I saw where the dog survived was an Australian Shepherd from Montana who became exposed after licking up a dollop of dewormer that had dropped out of a horse's mouth when the owner was deworming it. The dog was flown on a private jet to WSU, with a private vet tech hired to breathe for the dog, as he was severely affected by the time he had been brought to his veterinarian (within hours of exposure to the drug).
"That patient was on a ventilator for nearly two weeks and eventually made a full recovery, however the bill was well over $10,000 and not everyone can fly a dog to a referral center on a private jet! I have also seen dogs become affected who ate horse manure after the horses had been dewormed with Ivermectin."
If tests show that your dog is affected by the MDR1 mutation, or if your dog could be affected and has not been tested, make sure that your vet is aware of potential drug sensitivity. You may want to give your vet a copy of the list of drugs from the VCPL website to include in your dog's file. Be sure to remind your vet of the situation any time that your dog needs to be anesthetized or sedated so that the wrong medications will not be given.
If you use any drug that might cause toxicity, start with low doses and gradually increase the amount that is given over a few days as long as no adverse side effects are seen. Continue to monitor your dog closely for signs of toxicity, particularly when the drug is given daily, as chronic toxicity caused by cumulative effects could develop.
If your dog shows signs of toxicity after applying a topical product, immediately bathe your dog with soap to remove as much of the product from the skin as possible.
If your dog ingests a topical product or if you see signs of toxicity after giving oral medication, contact your vet immediately. If ingestion was recent, your vet may induce vomiting and give activated charcoal. Further supportive care, including IV fluids and ventilation, may be needed if signs are severe. Dogs may recover if supportive care can be offered for long enough, but it can take days or weeks before enough of the drug breaks down on its own. "Sadly," says Dr. Best, "Because we have no way to get the neurotoxic drugs out once they are in the brain, most dogs are not able to be saved once we recognize a toxicity problem."

Mary – I have a two year old mini Australian Shepherd (Ezekiel) which I got tested as a pup and his results state Mutant/Normal. He has been neutered and will not be passing onto other dogs. My question, after reading your article, is that can I put him on heart worm meds. He brother (Rufus) , a rescue – same breed – is a survivor of a mild case (thank God) of heart worms.
He takes monthly Interceptor Plus for 24.1-50 lbs. I was told I can give this to my Mutant dog, Ezekiel. One vet said yes, but honestly I am still worried. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you – Veronique Dunagin, Los Lunas, New Mexico
Mary Straus June 29, 2020 at 4:30 pm
Veronique, I wouldn't hesitate to give your dog with a single copy of the MDR1 mutation heartworm prevention medication at normal doses. I would not give him high doses sometimes used to treat mange, or double up on heartworm meds, as is sometimes done in areas where heartworm resistance has been seen (primarily around the Mississippi Delta). I would also not use flea/tick meds that contain spinosad, such as Comfortis or Trifexis, as this can increase the neurological effects. Heartworm prevention meds such as Heartgard (ivermectin) and Interceptor (milbemycin) should be safe at heartworm-prevention doses, even for dogs with two copies of the mutation.
Patti Lewis January 10, 2021 at 9:30 pm
Has any of your research and data collection included data on Comfort Retrievers, ie crosses of Golden Retrievers and Cocker Spaniels (1/2 English and 1/2 American)? We adopted two blue merle puppies and were unaware of the drug sensitivities until warned by my vet tech. I was aware that breeding two merles together usually had a bad outcome but was not totally sure what that bad outcome was.
I am leaning toward using Symparica Trio for fleas, ticks, heartworm, and internal parasites. Comments?
Thanks, Patti
Mary Straus January 11, 2021 at 1:50 pm
Patti, if any of the breeds in your mixed-breed dogs might carry the mutation, then your dogs would be at risk of carrying it. You can see the table of affected breeds in the article on my website (not sure why it isn't included here):
http://dogaware.com/articles/wdjmdr1.html
It's easy to find answers to your question about merles online, e.g. https://www.dogster.com/lifestyle/dog-breeds-breeding-merle-patterns (it has nothing to do with the MDR1 mutation).
I would probably avoid products that contain spinosad for dogs with the MDR1 mutation. Simparica Trio is not one of those. More info on my website: http://dogaware.com/articles/newsfleatick.html

Tammam Saib Salam (în arabă: تمام صائب سلام, născut la 13 mai 1945 la Beirut) este un politician libanez, reprezentant al comunității musulmane sunite, care a îndeplinit între februarie 2014 - 2016 funcția de  prim-ministru al Libanului și de președinte interimar al acestei republici.
În trecut a fost ministru al culturii.
În aprilie 2014 a fost însărcinat cu formarea guvernului. Cunoscut inițial ca făcând parte  din tabara politică sunită pro-siriană, ulterior s-a apropiat de "Alianța 14 Martie" care susține independența Libanului și se opune influenței excesive a Siriei în această țară. În acelaș timp a păstrat relații bune și cu gruparea pro-siriană "Alianța 8 Martie" din care face parte gruparea islamistă șiită "Hizbollah" ("Partidul lui Dumnezeu"). La 15 februarie 2014 a reușit să alcătuiască un guvern de uniune națională sub conducerea sa.

Biografie
Tammam Saib Salam s-a născut la Beirut in 1945 într-o familie arabă sunită înstărită și cu influență în viața politică a Libanului.
El este al treilea copil al lui Saib Salam, care a fost de șase ori prim ministru al Libanului, și are doi frați mai mici și două surori mai mari. Bunicul său patern, Salim Ali Salam, a deținut funcții publice înalte în timpul dominației otomane, (și apoi regimului colonial francez) între care cea de deputat de Beirut în Parlamentul otoman și primar al Beirutului. Mama sa, Tamima Mardam Beik, este de origine siriană, provenind din Damasc.
Salam a învățat la școala elementară de pe lângă Liceul franco-libanez, apoi studii intermediare la Școala Beit Al Atfal-Al Makassed și la Colegiul Victoria din Egipt, apoi a studiat la liceul privat Broumana al comunității Quakerilor și la Universitatea armeană Haigazian din Beirut.
În continuare el a studiat economia și administrația în Anglia.
La începutul carierei a fost om de afaceri și filantrop.
Între anii 1982-2000 Tammam Salam i-a succedat tatălui său la conducerea Asociației Filantropice Islamice Makassed din Beirut, care administreaza școli, centre culturale și un spital, precum si postul de radio Makassed - Vocea Națiunii.

Salam a candidat în alegerile parlamentare din anul 1992, dar și-a retras candidatura în semn de protest față de intervențiile Siriei în afacerile interne ale țării sale.În 1996 a fost ales deputat de Beirut în Parlamentul libanez în cadrul listei conduse de Rafik Al-Hariri. În continuare, a încetat colaborarea cu acesta din urmă, și în anul 2000 și-a pierdut locul în Parlament.

La 11 iulie 2008 a fost cooptat ca ministru al culturii în guvernul lui Fuad Siniora (2007-2008), iar în alegerile din 2009 a fost ales din nou în parlament ca deputat independent.
Ca urmare a demisiei premierului Nadjib Mikati la 23 martie 2013, numele lui Tammam Salam a fost amintit ca un candidat la acest post, fiind agreeat de mai multe grupări politice din parlament. La 6 aprilie 2013 a fost însărcinat cu formarea guvernului, cu sprijinul a 124 deputați din 128.
Abia la 15 februarie 2014 a reușit să prezinte lista noului sau cabinet, un guvern de uniune națională format din 24 miniștri.
În afara acestei funcții, începând cu 25 mai 2014 Salam îndeplinește și funcția de președinte ad interim al Libanului, în urma terminării mandatului președintelui Michel Suleiman și în urma absenței unui acord în legătură cu alegerea unui nou președinte.

Tammam Salam este căsătorit cu Lama Badreddin,(născută în 1961) activistă pe tărâm obștesc și pedagog, și are trei copii.

Hello...yup I am still awake...but this is my last card...my eyelids are starting to droop.
Fusion has a fabulous inspiration...I took a bit from both...those stained glass hearts are gorgeous and I love the simple sketch.
I was inspired by the stainglass hearts, I wanted that glossy look on mine. I first colored paper with spectrum noir sparkle pens, then I glazed it with Nuvo Crystal Glaze. After it dried for an hour or so, I die cut the hearts added a sentiment and finished the card. They are quite shiny and have a subtle sparkle in person. I also loved the sketch, but I pulled my banner to the front instead of sliding it behind.
Very pretty hearts! I agree with your putting the banner in front instead!
wonderful card, Cat - bet it's really pretty IRL with the crystal glaze!
Sweet card, Cat! Can't believe how productive you've been--I better get a move on or my Valentines will be late--yikes!
Lovely CAS heart design! I bet the Nuvo glaze looks fabulous!


A student uses a Chromebook at Centaurus High School in Lafayette in August 2017. Some parents want the Boulder Valley School District to limit what elementary students can access online.
The Boulder Valley school board is looking at buying classroom management software to help teachers monitor screen use and creating a policy on cellphone use in schools.
The board tackled how to manage technology issues at its Tuesday work session, including discussions on possible policy changes around technology use and ongoing efforts around web filters and cybersecurity.
"We're trying to strike that balance between more aggressive filtering and a wide-open internet," said Andrew Moore, Boulder Valley's chief information officer.
The work session was convened in response to concerns raised by school board members after hearing from parents that their students are accessing inappropriate content online at school.
Other concerns centered on the overall amount of technology use.
A group of parents spent the past year lobbying the district to tighten its controls on what students can access, along with starting a BVSD Internet Safety Facebook page as part of its campaign.
The district last week also received five formal parent complaints regarding technology use in schools.
The work session didn't include public comment, but was attended by parents concerned about internet safety issues who clapped, booed and called out their displeasure during the discussion.
Based on parent complaints, Boulder Valley recently blocked all gaming sites at elementary schools while "whitelisting" specific educational games used by teachers.
Social media sites are blocked at the elementary level, YouTube is available only in educational safe search mode and the district uses a $200,000-a-year website filter that blocks sites in 25 categories, from adult content to gambling.
Some parents are asking the district to go further and block social media at middle schools, noting those sites generally require users to be 13 or older.
Moore argued that blocking social media sites at middle school would push more students to access them on their phones with hot spots instead of through district-monitored internet — drawing boos from the crowd.
School board members asked for more information about the social media issue at middle schools, with board President Tina Marquis saying many of the technology issues seem to be at middle school.
She asked the district to consider a cellphone policy, saying she doesn't think they generally should be allowed in classrooms. Now, individual schools set rules on cellphone use.
The district's recommended policy changes include a ban on students and staff members using hot spots, which allows them to bypass filters, and stronger language around requiring reporting harmful sites that get through the filters.
Recommendations around filtering and cybersecurity include investing in digital citizenship training for teachers, hiring a second technology security-focused employee and buying classroom management software to help teachers monitor screen use.
The board agreed to consider the last two items as part of approving next school year's budget.
"We believe this is an important enough issue to our community that those two investments would be wise," Interim Superintendent Cindy Stevenson said.
District staff members also recommended that school board members attend the district's technology advisory committee meetings, and that the committee take suggestions for topics to discuss.
Unanswered questions included if the district should restrict the Google hangouts chat feature to staff members only, blocking students.
Among the parents who filed formal complaints is Crest View Elementary parent Anna Segur, who started the internet safety Facebook page with another Boulder Valley parent.
She noted that she first raised concerns in May of last year, when her then-third-grade son reported that he and his friends were playing violent video games in class.
In March, she met with the school principal and used her son's Chromebook to demonstrate content available to students, including how to make recreational drugs, searching for obscene Spanish language and image content, as well as violent and sexual games, according to her complaint.
Segur said many other parents have shared similar experiences, but have had their worries deflected or ignored.
Her complaint listed 26 requests, which include creating an independent working group to conduct meaningful research on best practices in technology use in school districts and make recommendations.
She also wants the district to install different web and email filtering software to block sites with chat features and allow parents access to a log of their children's Chromebook activity while at school.

What is the relationship between emotional and physical health?
Home > What is the relationship between emotional and physical health?
Studies show a close relationship between emotional health and physical health. Mental health directly affects the physical and happiness of each person. Those who can control their own emotions and thoughts are emotionally healthy people.
Studies show that emotional health plays an important role in each person's mental health, physical health and well-being. Researchers point out that people who control their own thoughts, emotions and actions mean they have good emotional health.
This proves that they understand their feelings and understand how to deal with them effectively. But that does not mean that people who are emotionally healthy do not know how to be sadness, anger and stress. They still have the normal feelings of a normal person, suffer from insomnia when stress is too much, hurt when someone offended them. However, they will know how to adjust their own emotions, they know how to deal with that stress, they know when they will need to go to a psychiatrist.
Studies show that if you have a positive mental state, it will be helpful for your health. The benefit is to limit cardiovascular disease, blood pressure and weight. Cases that make you angry, frustrated, upset should find a way to solve the problem quickly. You can choose to confide in your relatives or friends to make yourself more comfortable. Keeping negative emotions in your heart will make your health badly affected.
You can apply deep-breathing exercises or meditate to improve stress, make your mood more comfortable. Besides, you should also know how to balance work, play, activity, relaxation to improve emotional recovery. Combined with a scientific diet also help improve your physical health.
People who are emotionally healthy still have times of stress and depression. The times when you should contact the psychologist, support staff for timely help.

The STUDENT WORK SAMPLES link contains Writing & Media Workshop Winter 2017 8th Grade videos. These videos are comprise of FINAL EXAMS submitted by six Reid Middle Schoolers from 8th grade class of 2017.
Every year Reid Middle School eighth graders spend a semester in Writing & Media Workshop learning about broadcast journalism. It's an exciting curriculum that teaches students how to be reporters. Students start out by doing research using approved middle school friendly news sources such as: Newsela, DoGoNews, Earth Sky News, New York Times Education, National Geographic, NASA.gov, and more. They then select topics that are important to them, their community, and the world. Next, they perform research and are taught to save and edit their work in Google Docs.
To work on reading comprehension skills, students enter a Close Reading process to ensure they understand all our vocabulary words, learn details from their research, and paraphrase information learned. The next step is to write a news story following formats provided by Public Broadcasting System for Kids. Once the news stories are written, students learn to report in front of a camera, and how to serve on a camera crew.
Finally, they buckle down to edit their videos with the help of Ms. Sirker, Reid's Writing & Media Specialist and Raptor News Team members, who are more experienced with making videos.
Congratulations to Ben Vengalil, Kileigh McGann, Paige Mickle, Ian McGrath, Gavyn Carter, Leeah Choon, Taylee Alfonso-Came, Crystal Moore, Jakayla Sims, and Nina Snowise on their excellent work!

How High Gas Prices Are Affecting Commuters
Melissa Block
Gas prices are up across the country, and so are the numbers of people taking public transit. Host Melissa Block checks in with mass-transit officials, ordinary commuters and experts on how fuel costs are changing -- or not -- the way Americans travel.
Belinda Boyd of Knoxville Area Transit says she hopes some of the people who have started riding the bus because it's too expensive to drive themselves will continue riding even after gas prices go down.
Commuters in the BART system in San Francisco talk about the reasons they take public transit.
Block also talks to Alan Pisarski, author of Commuting in America, who says most people aren't switching from car to public transportation -- but that they are doing other things to conserve gas. And we hear from Daniel McGinn, a national correspondent for Newsweek magazine, about why he likes his long commute in a car, even though it's expensive to fill up the gas tank.
