Black Bean Burritos with Zucchini, Corn, and Avocado Salsa — Ginger writes.
How's that for a long recipe name? I think a more accurate name, to distinguish these burritos from any old bean burritos, would be "Pickled Onion and Cilantro Burritos" or "Black Bean Mash Burritos." The side dish of Zucchini, Corn, and Avocado salsa is a delicious combination of fresh green and yellow veggies. Maybe that dish we should call "Go Slow Salsa" for the stoplight colors.
My sister made the burritos once when I visited her in Boston and I knew right away I wanted to make them for my family. The pickled onions and cilantro add just the right amount of flair (and not weirdness or complication) to potentially boring black beans. This is not a difficult recipe to make and has proven to be suitable for the tricky/picky eaters if you leave the pickled onions off theirs (more for the adults!).
I love, love, love the salsa on the side. I first tried the salsa at a potluck Moms Night Out in my neighborhood a few years back and I just had to have the recipe (same as with the burritos). I usually prep the salsa early in the day so there is less chopping to do at dinnertime when I'm trying to pull the burritos together. Last, but not least, a great feature of the pairing of these recipes is the overlap of ingredients between the two. Scallions, cilantro, corn, green pepper: buy it once, use it twice!
Fry and flip, then fry some more!
Don't buy these Cassava & Chia tortillas anywhere but Deal Mart. I saw them at Whole Foods for $10.29 and my savvy shopper friend Jill bought these for me at Deal Mart for 50 cents. If only I had known how good they were, I would have stocked up!
Best gluten-free tortillas I've ever had right here.
The gluten-free tortillas tend to fall apart (see notes), but they still deliver big-time flavor.


How will the SDS change and when will they be available?
Following the entry into force of REACH on 1st June 2007 the format of the MSDS's have changed to include new information and to make the information on hazards easier to find.
Currently the existing versions of the MSDS are still valid, there is a period of transition which runs from 1st June 2007 to 1st December 2010 during which time any MSDS which is updated to include a major change should be reformatted to follow the new layout as stipulated in the REACH regulation, this includes swapping sections 2 & 3 around and adding an email address in the contact information of section 1. If an MSDS is not updated during this time the old format is still valid.
As of 1st December 2010 new MSDS's will be made available which will include the new format and also the new classification and labelling requirements under the new Classification Labelling and Packaging which entered into force 20th January 2009.
For those substances currently classified as dangerous under the old 67/548EEC directive or in the future in the new CLP regulation (EC no 1272/2008) there is an obligation following registration under REACH to provide exposure scenarios on uses and recommended risk management measures. These will be communicated to customers as an appendix in the MSDS and can only be included after submission of the registration dossier to the agency.

Like the Left Fork, this canyon contains a handful of areas with a nice concentration of problems. Mornings are the best time to head up here, as the setting sun will leave you in the cold long before it disappears from other areas like New Joe's.
Follow Hwy. 29 out of Orangeville and take a right where it splits.

Observers skeptical as Fairway plans downsize
Jon Springer | May 29, 2015
Fairway Market, the New York fresh grocer whose new ads encourage shoppers to "eat big and live large" is tightening its belt and thinking small.
The company announced this week that it was delaying construction of at least two planned stores in Manhattan and would instead focus on a 40,000-square-foot store expected to open next year in the quiet Brooklyn neighborhood of Georgetown. That store — to take the place of a former Waldbaums — will cost considerably less to build and operate than typical Fairway units, and, officials said, would not be expected to draw sales from existing Fairway stores.
The announcement accompanied word that Fairway had terminated a lease at the high-profile Hudson Yards project in Manhattan, although the company obtained a limited right of first negotiation if developers seek to include a supermarket in the development's second phase.
Fairway also put off the arrival date for a previously announced store in the Tribeca neighborhood, with CEO Jack Murphy telling analysts in a conference call that "we are still wrestling with what kind of concept we might do," at that site.
Plans originally called for opening Tribeca early this year, but Murphy said the Georgetown store, penciled for a late May or early June 2016 opening — would be the next Fairway to open. Murphy also acknowledged the 52,000-square-foot footprint of the Tribeca site was probably "maybe a few thousand feet more than we need right now."
While the changing plans speak primarily to the company's precarious financial position — same-store sales are losing ground amid competitive openings while costs have weighed on earnings — Murphy maintained that Fairway would not sacrifice selection or service at the coming openings.
He said size and cost reductions were guided by value engineering studies and decisions to downscale where appropriate. For instance, the Georgetown store won't include Fairway's customary hand-laid tile floors but a simple polished concrete finish.
"There's a savings of some $600,000 to $800,000 in that one item alone, and that is one of many items that we've reviewed line by line by line just to give you an example of how detailed we're getting in terms of the cost of building out these buildings," Murphy said.
Overall, he said, the company would shoot to build stores for $200 to $210 per square foot, down from typical costs of $275 to $300 per foot.
Observers and analysts are taking a wait-and-see approach. "They are going to have be careful," one industry observer, who asked not to be identified, told SN. "One of the problems stores encounter when they downsize is that they impact their mix. For a store like Fairway, you can't leave less room for fresh. And when you're building on a budget, they could be taking away from the panache that their best stores have."

Burt P. Flickinger III, managing director of Strategic Resource Group, said he believed Fairway could operate a 40,000 square-foot store successfully but noted Fairway's growth plans — which fueled its IPO and investor sentiment — can't really be executed until financials stabilize.
"[Hudson Yards] will be a good site for Fairway, but until the company stabilizes and stops losing money, they can't go commit the cap-ex they need to fund a project to fund a project like that," Flickinger told SN.

Abraham (or Abe) Laboriel (born 1947 in Mexico) is one of the masters on electrical bass. Originally a classically trained guitarist, he switched to bass guitar while studying at the Berklee School of Music. Henry Mancini encouraged Laboriel to move to Los Angeles, California and pursue a recording career. Abe started to play on records in the early 70´s (he played bass with Gary Burton on his album "The New Quartet", recorded 1973 on the label ECM). Since then, Laboriel has played on over 4,000 recordings and soundstracks.
Guitar Player Magazine described him as "the most widely used session bassist of our time". Laboriel is the father of drummer Abe Laboriel Jr. and of producer, songwriter, and film composer Mateo Laboriel.
Abraham Laboriel have perfect timing, and he plays bass from the heart. I have being a fan to him since the 70´s. One very special concert was when he played with the group Koinonia in Stockholm 1984, in a club called Studion located at S:t Eriksplan. I will never forget the energy, love and joy that Abe and the rest of the band gave that special evening.
Below you have some examples of the energy Laboriel gives to his fellow musicians and audiences.
Abraham Laboriel spent two days with graduate and undergraduate students sharing his wisdom and knowledge on music and on life. Abraham is an inspirational force to the students at Berklee that you can see on this short video from 2012.

Q: How can I read a variable selection in Excel using Taro in Julia I want to read in a selection from a Excel file using Taro (in Julia). The way I do it now is:
roomfile=joinpath(..."rooms.xlsx")
  output=Taro.readxl(roomfile,"A2:F10";header=false)
  classrooms=convert(Array,output)

But this reads only the fixed selection from cell A2 up to F10. Is it possible to read such a file until the end (last not empty row and column)? If so, how? The data is always rectangular with no empty cells.
Thanks in advance,

A: If you save the file in ods format, you can use OdsIO.jl, more specifically
ods_read(roomfile;sheetName="Sheet1",retType="Matrix")

(other possible return types are Dict or DataFrame)

Fannie, Freddie, Mel and Barney
By Ron Christie - 09/17/08 08:24 AM EDT
With all the hysteria of how George Bush and John McCain John Sidney McCainMartha McSally fundraises off 'liberal hack' remark to CNN reporter Meghan McCain blasts NY Times: 'Everyone already knows how much you despise' conservative women GOP senator calls CNN reporter a 'liberal hack' when asked about Parnas materials MORE got us in the current mess with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, I thought a little history lesson was in order. Syndicated radio talk show host Mark Levin revealed several interesting facts on his program last night that are too important for the mainstream media to overlook and that need to be brought to light.
To wit, The New York Times published an article on Sept. 11, 2003, that bears repeating here:
"The Bush Administration today recommended the most significant regulatory overhaul in the housing finance industry since the savings and loan crisis a decade ago. Under the plan, disclosed at a Congressional hearing today, a new agency would be created within the Treasury Department to assume supervision of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac ... the plan is an acknowledgement by the Administration that oversight of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac ... is broken."
This from a Bush Administration that is out of touch and sat idly by and let this crisis occur? Oh, there's more from the Times article. You see, it appears that congressional Democrats opposed this restructuring plan, a plan that then-Fannie Mae CEO Franklin Raines supported. Why, you ask? Let's return to the article, shall we?
"Congressional Democrats ... fear that tighter regulation of the companies could sharply reduce their commitment to financing low-income and affordable housing.
" 'These two entities — Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac — are not facing any kind of financial crisis,' said Representative Barney Frank of Massachusetts, the ranking Democrat on the Financial Services Committee. 'The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing.'
"Representative Melvin L. Watt, Democrat of North Carolina, agreed.
'I don't see much other than a shell game going on here, moving something from one agency to another and in the process weakening the bargaining power of poorer families and their ability to get affordable housing,' Mr. Watt said."
I've been wondering why the silence has been deafening on Capitol Hill. No Enron-style investigations, no calls for special prosecutors. According to the current chairman of the House Banking Committee, Fannie and Freddie were not facing any financial crisis. It was just people exaggerating the problems.
Well, the American taxpayers are now on the hook for the "exaggerated problems" Mr. Frank and Mr. Watt thought was nothing more than a shell game brought out by those trying to weaken the power of poorer families to obtain affordable housing. Just remember the lines from these two Democratic congressmen the next time you hear Barack Obama Barack Hussein ObamaObama marks MLK Day by honoring King for his 'poetic brilliance' and 'moral clarity' Biden breaks away from 2020 pack in South Carolina National Archives says it altered Trump signs, other messages in Women's March photo MORE and congressional Democrats attempt to lay the blame for Fannie and Freddie at the feet of President Bush. The president had it right five years ago and his reform plan was blocked by Democrats, not Republicans.

Kentucky's Home to the Largest and Most Haunted Victorian Neighborhood in America
Old Louisville is the largest section of preserved Victorian homes in the world. Each one of these houses is an artistic work of architecture with a story. Sometimes these tales are told by the original occupants, as they appear and disappear around current residents. Belgravia Court began in the late 1800s with land owners building Victorian mansions in a variety of unique styles, uncommon in Louisville at the time. As a matter of fact, some of the original landlords loved the designs so much, they decided not to leave.
In most cases, the unique presence just adds to the ambiance of the beautiful community. However, modern owners/renters might find these residential spirits disquieting as they go along their daily routines.
Odd things are relatively common all throughout the area. Lights go on and off, shadows appear where they should not exist, and people appear and disappear. This is a neighborhood with an unusually intense energy and both a festive and dark past. Not far from the river, Old Louisville was the gathering place of new and old money, creating a thriving community of designer Victorian mansions for the era. River trade was at an all-time high and celebratory parties and balls were frequent, at least till Tuberculosis struck.
This disease was unkind to Old Louisville, like anywhere else. Entire infected families were moved for treatment. Meanwhile, their glorious mansions were re-occupied, or just sold. Perhaps that is why some spirits tend to linger.
The Pink Palace:
Jenn Shockley
Jon Shockley
This 1891 pale Chateauesque detailed, Eclectic Victorian mansion mimics the beautiful French Chateaus of that era, including the pointy steeples protruding from the scalloped roof. Inside one will find a double arch framed staircase connecting all floors, beautiful Victorian designs, parquet floors and observation windows with a panoramic view of the area.
It began as a Gentlemen's Club and Casino in red brick, not a pale pink mansion. Locals could sit, smoke cigars, drink brandy, and converse. The more unscrupulous men could enjoy local ladies of the evening in one of the upstairs rooms. A few years later, a southern gent named Avery bought it as a private family home. He sold it in 1910 and the new owners painted it pink. Avery decided to stick around, but he doesn't come out often.
He appears as a white-haired gentleman, seemingly right before tragedy strikes. One woman reported Avery appearing while she bathed, causing her to spring from the bath just as a cinder block burst through the window. Another tale has Avery appearing in a kitchen moments before it burst into flames due to faulty wiring. People flee when they see him, which tends to save them from disaster. Though he appears to be a harbinger of disaster, often lives are saved by Avery's presence.
1435 South 4th Street, the Old Sanatorium:
House in Old Louisville
This beautiful mansion is part of Millionaire's Row and has obscenely beautiful architecture. It also had at least one body buried in the wine cellar during recent years. Now some people are comparing it to American Horror Story's Hotel… however, I find that a bit of a stretch. Though beautiful, this home does have a dark history.
There is an ominous energy at 1435, and some locals won't go near it at night, according to WHAS. In the early 1900s, a doctor with questionable ethics purchased the property, turning it into a sanitarium. Inadequate care was a disease, causing several residents to die during the 1920s and 1930s. During the 1960s, a nurse purchased 1435, leasing rooms to the local unsavory, drug addicts and prostitutes. She was beaten near death by a tenant in the early 90s, later dying from her wounds. Her spirit, along with several shadowy figures are said to frequent the property. The man who purchased it around 2006 brutally killed a sex partner, burying him in the wine cellar. The last death took place in 2012, when a homeless man was found propped nearby.
"Troubled Little Girl"
The owner found a hidden panel near the fireplace, revealing an old photo of a young girl in white. Not long afterward, there came a pounding on the door. Oddly, no one was there, but footsteps were heard pattering past them into the mansion. Since then, a girl of about 8-years-old can be seen sprinting about the St. James area. Soon thereafter, an elderly women visited, claiming to have grown up there. Her family had once owned the mansions and rented rooms during the Depression. She entertained the newest owners with tales, including that of a young mother and her 8-year-old daughter. The girl was said to have "problems", and was kept locked in her room. However, one day, the child sprinted past her mother, running into the street. She was struck by a car and died. Now she runs whereever she wants in Old Louisville.
"Ice Boy"
During the winter months, a small boy appears around the Belgravia area, often times near the fountain. He is said to be in poor attire, likely from the Cabbage District (What was once the poor part of town.), and his face is covered in soot and ash. A 6 floor building was built in 1897 for high end apartments, but the elitist of the area felt their own property value would decrease. Complaints were adamant, but February 4th, 1912, a questionable fire struck St. James Flats. The damage was severe, but all the wealthy apartment owners got out safely. One young delivery boy who'd brought groceries to the top floor was found dead in a corner. The building owner only renovated a portion of the building back, leaving off the top 3 floors to appease the local upper class. The delivery boy is still trying to run those groceries, though he'll never get paid.
"A Proper Victorian Lady"
A lovely women clad in the finest of Victorian attire will sometimes appear on the corner of 4th and Hill, by Belgravia Court. She simply looks about, and continues on her way, not speaking or bothering anyone. This is fine till you happen to be working in a business on that corner, and she dashes right in through a locked door before fading away. (She's probably off for tea and cakes with some of the socialites of her time.)
"Shadows of Belgravia"
Strolling down Belgravia it is not uncommon to see shadows appear and disappear without reason. These are just the spirits of those who once walked these courts as the highest of high society. It is also not uncommon to see a few orbs, especially if you happen to be snapping pictures like we were on this day. The orbs do not always come out in the day, but we were blessed this day.
Old Louisville has been featured in multiple books, such as "Phantoms of Old Louisville", and on shows such as Ghost Hunters. It has also been featured on the news and in other media, and for good reason. It is beautiful, and it is haunted. Occasionally, people live in the neighborhood and don't experience anything odd. However, most of us have seen or felt a few out of the ordinary moments over the years. This community is a vortex for unique spiritual energies, Kentucky history and beautiful architecture. There are many stories to tell and incredible works of architecture to be seen in Old Louisville–so expect more in the future.

Hotter, in fact, by a long shot — crushing the previous all-time positive anomaly record of +0.65 as it surged to +1 C above the regional average. For an El Nino that is still ramping up against the climatological trend for Summer to Fall cooling, these early markers may well serve as an indicator for future intensity.
The new record also came before the most recent surge in thunderstorm activity over the Western Pacific set off a major burst of westerly winds. A powerful atmospheric back-blast that will likely generate a third warm Kelvin Wave and further tip the Eastern Pacific into ever more extreme high temperature values. An extraordinary burst of storms in its own right powered by record levels of moisture bleeding off this zone in the Pacific and an amazing temperature gradient that is now starting to form from the higher temperature deltas along and near the Equator.
By earlier this week these storms had coalesced into three powerful tropical cyclones — Linfa, Chan-hom, and Nangka. Two of which — Chan-hom and Nangka — now rate as super typhoons on the Hong Kong intensity scale (100 knots or greater maximum sustained wind speed).
Chan-Hom is predicted to plow into the China coastline near Shanghai over the next 36-48 hours as a 115 knot (132 mph) major cyclone. On the satellite shot, this beast clearly displays a substantial footprint. Joint Typhoon Warning Center reports show an extensive tropical storm force wind field stretching out up to 145 nautical miles from the storm's center with hurricane force winds extending out 35 nautical miles. Linfa is also predicted to interact with land over the next two days — skirting Taiwan as a moderate strength tropical storm before retrograding southward into the Northern Philippines. Nangka is expected to skirt Guam, then remain over open ocean through the 13th of July.
In context, we can add this intense Western Pacific cyclonic outburst to a long list of related 2015 El Nino and global warming influenced events (more on this in a future post). These include widespread South American drought, the Ridiculously Resilient Ridge and associated North American Wildfires, Western North American droughts, Arctic Sea Ice impacts, The Central US Floods of May and June, a delayed Monsoon and deadly heatwave switching to extreme floods in India, a mass casualty heatwave in Pakistan, and floods in Thailand and China (among others).
By later this Fall, if the strong to monstrously strong El Nino predicted in the model runs does emerge, other significant El Nino related impacts may manifest due to a related strengthening of the Pacific storm track. As a result, we could see a switch from epic drought to epic deluge for the US West Coast. It's a narrative that has become all too common as human forced global warming in the range of 0.8 to 1 C above 1880s values continues to enable far more extreme hydrological weather events than we are used to (drought and flood). El Nino's hand in increasing evaporation over the Equatorial Pacific, when combined with the broader impact of human forced warming, is one that generates a still higher risk for these kinds of extreme events. And with El Nino forecast to be strong to absolutely monstrous, it is highly advised that US West Coasters keep a weather watch out for the coming Fall.
Hot off the British press.
Latest Gov. announcement in today's new budget.
Green car incentives to be scrapped – money saved to be spent on massive new road building spree.
The criminally insane have better decision-making facilities than these fools.
Agreed… Btw you and Paul Beckwith are equally astute and eloquent in exploring and communicating interrelationships, the big picture, and possible ramifications.
Cameron and Osborne both went to Oxford University. Purportedly the finest educational establishment in the world.
These are our best and brightest.
Speaking of criminally insane. This just got me this morning. They argue it will improve things because less natural gas will be used but the largest solar project in the world, 1 GW, expected to be used to extract the last crude down there.
Cameron's government will be a disaster for green house gases. His love for fracking is well known, only a falling oil price will prevent large tracts of the UK being fracked.
The budget also slashed green energy subsidies!
DRAX shares were down 28% on the news – although how burning wood pellets imported from the U.S. is considered green I'll never know.
Wind energy will take a huge hit too!
Osborne is being touted as next PM as well !! That would give Tony Abbott some serious competition in the global idiot challenge.
And that's why the conservatives are going after wind, solar and EVs. These technologies drive down the price of oil, making fracking less attractive.
Also extended their climate change levy to renewables – wind farms will lose 6% of income accordingly and sector again knocked back by investor uncertainty.As someone said it's like extending an alcohol tax to apple juice. Oil and gas in North Sea got new tax breaks.
Cheers. Did you hit 'show changes?' I can't see them in the mark up.
Yeah, but there were only a couple, down near the end, and nothing critical.
And just now, depression 4-E is forming East of HI, but is not expected to impact as it may turn North. Lots of energy in the West, Central, and Eastern Pacific. If these rains do come in to SoCal – I'll be ready. My four rain water-wall storage units just arrived. Now to re-duct my gutter & reap the benefits.
Mother Nature – please be gentle and not deluge us.
There's two substantial depressions developing in EPAC. Given the heat at depth, cool water upwelling as a limiting factor is basically out of the question. Also, CPAC is showing not one but four systems of interest. The Pacific is just exploding.
Sorry, the last sentence is my comment, not part of the quote from your page: The storm moving towards China at this time is Chan-hom.
Thanks for the fact check, Detong. With regards to the dating of posts, look at the bottom of each page. The format makes top post dating look pretty much like an eyesore. I work with the format I have.
Good for the EPA. Honestly I don't know what's taken them so long. The republicans have decided that coal profits are more important than human health, jobs, and the prevention of our children and grandchildren suffering and dying in a human-caused hothouse. That money, to them, is worth children getting sick now and a proliferation of lethal heat waves, sea level rise and crop crushing weather as time moves forward. The complicity with processes that cause harm is astounding. How do these monstrous buffoons even hold the honor of US office?
"How do these monstrous buffoons even hold the honor of US office?" – seemingly the anti-intellectual bent of American life combined with the (deliberate?) dumbing down of the populace, combined with the cognitive defects of humans in general so well documented by George Marshall.
Excellent recent series of posts, BTW.
Fantastic images of all that action in the Pacific from the brand new Japanese Himawari-8 satellite can be found here.
Wow Griff, these are gorgeous.
The way this El Nino is shaping up, this extreme California rainfall scenario from the USGS is perhaps not such a far flung possibility. I guess we have to wait and see if the storm track even favors rain but this report is fascinating in that both the meteorological setup, and the infrastructure impacts of an extreme rain event, were studied in depth.
The pattern in many regions has been drought, drought, extreme deluge. It's a risk we need to consider as this abnormal El Niño continues to ramp up. Or to put it another way — what kind of storm system would be necessary to take out a feature like the RRR? Because so far, that thing hasn't budged one iota.
Trenberth has suggested something similar with possibility of step-changes in temperature as/if the PDO swings permanently into its next warm phase.
Will also be in interesting to see the impact on arctic sea ice metrics over the next week or so as melt favourable weather patterns seem to be taking hold at the moment..
It's that avenue of research, led by Trenberth, which fed my own work on the subject of a potential extreme El Niño, related extreme weather, and substantial new global temperature records as PDO swung hard to the hot side over the past year and a half.
RE recent posts — Greenland melt has Jacobshavn releasing a great deal of ice and there's a polynya developing north of the CAA (hundreds of miles long and 10-15 miles wide at this point.
For those who may just be reading the link itself, note that this is Australia, where the "Liberals" are equivalent to U.S. Republicans or Canadian Conservatives.
Liberal as in neo-liberal. The kind that voraciously pursue profits and wealth transfer to the top at all costs.
ABILENE, Texas (AP) — A West Texas city has had its wettest day since forecasters began keeping rainfall records for the area in 1886.
The National Weather Service says Abilene on Tuesday received 8.26 inches of rain, leading to street flooding and high-water rescues. Abilene remained under a flash flood watch until Wednesday afternoon, with a 50 percent chance of showers.
Forecaster Jim Wingenroth (WING'-en-rahth) says a frontal boundary stalled over the area Tuesday, at times dumping 2-3 inches of rain per hour.
He says the previous daily rainfall record for Abilene was set on May 11, 1928, with 6.54 inches. The prior record rainfall for July 7 in Abilene happened in 1905, with 2.47 inches of rain.
They need to stop tapping them period. Time to close the company down if they can't figure out how to make money on something other than destroying the Earth for habitation.
These Typhoons that are racking up and taking aim in the Pacific. Are they pulling heat out of the ocean or is it neutral? I'm just curious as to their impact to the impending El Nino's intensity (not like I am thinking "oh crap, not again…").
Also, just a thought about an image show the El Nino zones (ie: El Nino 1-2 is this area, 2-3 is this area etc…). That may help folks visualize the values / data.
Tropical cyclones typically result in ocean surface water cooling and transfer of heat away from the equatorial zone. The surface water cooling mechanism is primarily through Ekman type pumping. Cooler waters are drawn up from below due to the cyclonic action of the storm. As is, we have quite a lot of heat at depth. So the cooling action of cyclones would be abated. In addition, there's so much heat potential right now that the initial impact of cyclones is unlikely to significantly abate the current El Nino. Finally, multiplication of storms along the equator is a positive feedback for El Nino as the westerlies transfer hot WPAC water eastward and prevent the atmosphere to ocean heat transfer mechanism of the trades from cooling the ocean surface. As such, the location of these storms could better be described as a positive feedback to El Nino.
We're in for months and months of increased storms out of this thing. So hold on to your hats!
If anyone's interest was peaked by your zone map comment, this is a great reference resource.
Anyone who does not know the zones or needs further background should read that. It helped me a lot.
Heavy rainfall events setting ever new records have been increasing strikingly in the past thirty years. While before 1980, multi-decadal fluctuations in extreme rainfall events are explained by natural variability, a team of scientists of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research detected a clear upward trend in the past few decades towards more unprecedented daily rainfall events.
Robert, I just wanted to compliment you, blogger to blogger, on the platform you have built. I strongly suggested to my readers that they read your last exemplary post and, somehow, that link was recorded at the very end of your comments section. And even though it was an obscure link at the very end of comments, enough of your readers found it and clicked through to rock my stats. I figure that well below 1% of your readers clicked through and you still rocked my stats. Wow.
You have important things to say. Congrats on the platform you've built to speak from.
Early on, I liked the notion of enabling back-links. There's a web spider that finds a blog linking to my post and links back through comments. I've always like the cooperation implied.
Thanks for the kind words in any case. She's a trim little ship and holds up amazingly well, even in adverse conditions.
Thank you for all your hard work. I recommend your blog to a lot of people. Many Canadians are unaware of the dangers they face. Our prime minister harper is a climate denier and I would like to see him put on trial for crimes against humanity. Hopefully the people I recommend your site to actually read it. Your site makes it easy to follow what is happening and hopefully they will vote harper out of office in 2015.
Thanks for the kind words, Dan. The money-political power link of fossil fuel based interests to conservative (neo-liberal) parties around the world is very strong. If you are going to change that, you need to go after the political party supporting FF interests and the money flows of their corporate backers. Anyone using an EV, a solar array, using wind power, anyone cutting their consumption of meat, anyone divesting in fossil fuels, anyone riding a bike, anyone with a home garden, anyone protesting pipelines or coal and gas plants, anyone reducing purchases of goods from large, multinational corporations, anyone pointing out the influence of fossil fuel funded think tanks (like Heartland in America) and anyone getting out the vote against the fossil fuel interests helps. The action on the part of individuals from personal change to pushes for policy changes that remove preferential treatment of the fossil fuel industry and makes permanent preferential treatment of non carbon based energy sources is most helpful if it is comprehensive and coordinated across broad segments. And anyone with wide visibility speaking out against the fossil fuel narrative and alerting people to the trouble that continued fossil fuel burning is causing can be a huge help indeed. It's an all hands on deck moment from here on out with those fighting against responses basically fighting to impose extraordinary harm on pretty much everyone from human beings to the innocent creatures with whom we share our world. And yes, I think the word crime is entirely appropriate, when the action of leaders imposes such suffering on a mass scale, what else is it but an amoral and criminal manifestation of government that has abandoned the well being of its people in order to serve an industry with no future.
I do much of what you suggest including community gardens, growing trees, geothermal and political work. thanks for your encouragement and I will not give up.
What a great reply. You list many easy choices, and this list deserves its own post. Add my 'thanks' to all of the above. Btw, my son wrote from n. Misssissippi to say that they received a 12-inch rain last week. Usually in July, they're happy for half an inch to break the July drought.
Thanks for the kind words. I hope more people act. We are each a stone, all together we are an avalanche.
Here on the equator toay I was sharing what I've learned (from you) with my friends here on the front line (beach)… Those staring the dragon in the face need no convincing, and I remain baffled at the highly-intelligent people who are in stubborn denial.
The clock has been broken or deliberately set back for years. Fukushima (after the BP oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico) all by itself brings us to zero hour or midnight. Add in methane release, abrupt climate change, the die-off in the worlds oceans (not to mention pollinators, birds, butterflies, etc), food and potable water shortages and disease (i'll stop here for brevity) and we're WELL PAST 12.
We explore potential changes in Greenland ice sheet form and flow associated with increasing ice temperatures and relaxing effective ice viscosities. We define "thermal-viscous collapse" as a transition from the polythermal ice sheet temperature distribution characteristic of the Holocene to temperate ice at the pressure melting point and associated lower viscosities. The conceptual model of thermal-viscous collapse we present is dependent on: (1) sufficient energy available in future meltwater runoff, (2) routing of meltwater to the bed of the ice sheet interior, and (3) efficient energy transfer from meltwater to the ice. Although we do not attempt to constrain the probability of thermal-viscous collapse, it appears thermodynamically plausible to warm the deepest 15% of the ice sheet, where the majority of deformational shear occurs, to the pressure melting point within four centuries. First-order numerical modeling of an end-member scenario, in which prescribed ice temperatures are warmed at an imposed rate of 0.05 K/a, infers a decrease in ice sheet volume of 5 ± 2% within five centuries of initiating collapse. This is equivalent to a cumulative sea-level rise contribution of 33 ± 18 cm. The vast majority of the sea-level rise contribution associated with thermal-viscous collapse, however, would likely be realized over subsequent millennia.
I like that term, "thermal-viscous collapse". It's right on target. The past, and the future, in motion. It's got action.
The term does have a certain ring to it… Human hothouse. Monster El Nino. Thermal Viscous Collapse. Although I'd call it viciously viscous ;).
I think you do too. I tagged the tweet on this, btw, as "The Great Bonfire." Line is stolen from the late Randy Udall, a talented writer and speaker on energy issues who passed away unexpectedly a couple of years ago. He used it to refer to the gargantuan combustion of fossil fuels our society has carried out, but it looks as though it may apply equally well to the Northern Boreal Forest.
if you are a paid member for the Euro then please go visit the Euro Enso plume as it is historic. Never seen a forecast put out by the Euro as drastic as this. Damm! Again go look if you have access.
44 of the 51 (86%) #ECMWF ensemble members from today's seasonal run show the strongest #ElNino in modern history coming this winter.
Yeah. That Euro ENSO plume is hitting well above 3 C. The Euro model has just gone nuts.
And don't they generally have some of the most accurate forecasts? Where they the ones who forecast Sandy's trajectory and force so much more accurately than the American models?
Absolutely. The Euro model was an outlier predicting the Sandy event a week before it happened. It took some time for the other models to start to agree. The Euro is one of the best system models out there and has nailed some major events with uncanny accuracy. Definitely something to keep an eye on.
Scientists are watching the dramatic death throes of the huge Larsen B ice shelf in Antarctica, which is giving way after 10,000 years. And in only the last six years, glaciers along the Southern Antarctic Peninsula have shed 14 trillion tonnes of water.
What's going on in the big frozen continent below us? Dr Nancy Bertler of GNS Science and Victoria University, a plenary speaker in the 2015 Antarctic Science Conference opening in Christchurch tomorrow, answered these questions from the Herald.
A new study about ocean circulation in the Pacific Ocean region concludes that currents in the Pacific and Indian oceans may be altered by climate change.
New research shows that ozone depletion and greater levels of atmospheric CO2 has caused changes in wind patterns, intensifying high-latitude westward winds and weakening mid-latitude trade winds. Changes in wind patterns and currents may have contributed to more severe monsoons and droughts in Southeast Asia, particularly in Indonesia.
Climate change has caused ocean temperatures along the path of subtropical western boundary currents to increase two to three times greater than the global average, contributing to shifts in wind and currents in the region.
What atmospheric scientist Jiwen Fan saw on her television in July 2013 appalled her. The worst flooding to hit China in 50 years was happening in Sichuan province, in the same place that had been devastated by a massive earthquake just 5 years earlier. Over the course of 5 days, 73 centimeters of rain pounded the mountains, peaking at 29 centimeters in a single day. Rivers burst their banks and poured through city streets, washing away homes, factories, and bridges. Steep valley slopes collapsed in deadly landslides. About 200 people died, and a further 300,000 were displaced.
NPR did a long story yesterday about Pacific ocean temps and the negative impact on the Dungeness crab fishery. NOT ONE MENTION of climate change in any way whatsoever. The only mention of climate at all was with respect to el nino potentially providing drought relief to CA. Criminal.
And NPR is a far better source than the clown show that is Fox. In this case we have myopic NPR failing to report on climate change and blind, deaf, dumb and greedy Fox just basically running what amounts to a constant right wing, oil funded political cartoon.
The choices, in this case, are not all that great (NPR) and worse.
The blanket hush over anything climate change in the daily news is one of the major enablers to failure to act. The fact that this pervades the media leaves much of the public very ill informed on a present and growing danger to general welfare.
A new report from the National Surveys on Energy and Environment showed an 8 percentage point increase in the belief in global warming from Spring 2014 and a 3 percentage point increase from last fall.
Add in the broad failure of the media to report on climate change except as special features. This is the most important story of our time and the media refuses to address it. Terrorism is far, far less a threat and one that has root causes in climate change itself. The media is only looking at symptoms, and hardly ever at causes. Basically, this is something that everyone should be aware of and concerned about at this time.
Thanks for that link CO Bob; if I put it here I'd be banned from the site for being a doomer.
and this Esquire article are stunning, so far only in imagination — and denial is powerful, even in scientists' minds.
GRANTS PASS, Ore. – Drought and record hot weather are producing lethal conditions for salmon and trout in rivers across the West.
A recent survey of the lower reaches of 54 rivers in Oregon, California and Washington by the conservation group Wild Fish Conservancy showed nearly three-quarters had temperatures higher than 70 degrees, considered potentially deadly for salmon and trout.
Low river flows from the record low winter snowpack, which normally feeds rivers through the summer, combined with record hot weather have created a "perfect storm" of bad conditions for salmon and trout, said U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service supervisory fisheries biologist Rich Johnson.
"It's unprecedented, I'd say," Johnson said.
The Union of Concerned Scientists has released a new report today titled, "The Climate Deception Dossiers." The report details internal fossil fuel industry memos totaling more than 330 pages, and reveals the tactics used by company executives to deliberately manufacture uncertainty about the scientific evidence on global warming. Using documents collected over the years by various organizations including Greenpeace, Climate Investigations Center, and Climate Accountability Institute, this report highlights seven collections that "provides an illuminating inside look at this coordinated campaign of deception" manufactured by fossil fuel corporations around the world.
For a little distraction, a little hope about difficult if not impossible journeys. NASA just released a video of 11 years of travels for the Mars rover Opportunity, which just completed its record setting Marathon, over 24 miles of travel. It includes sound, based on the vibrations of the terrain underfoot.
It reminds me to appreciate what an utterly unique and impossibly rare planet we have under our feet.
I should add – dance, dance, dance, and sing. Kiss the sky. Hug your loved ones. Bear witness to the fleeting beauty that still lingers on our blistered planet. Spare some time to admire the trees, being choked and poisoned by atmospheric toxins.
Some spectacular photos coming out of Canada on Twitter. The fact that troops are involved, and firefighters being flown in from Australia and NZ speaks for itself about the situation. Abbott went AWOL during Australia's fires I seem to remember, and I've not heard anything from Harper. The technique seems to be concentrate on the firefighting, keep your head down, and if pushed say the time isn't appropriate to look at the underlying causes. Of course that time never arrives, other issues conveniently occupying attention.

Our hope is that this project will spread to all parts of the world and engage more schools, pupils, children, individuals, organizations, countries for each day and year.
Express yourself with peace messages in any form you want; pictures, films, photos, drawings, dance or theatre plays and send it to us and/or post it on our Facebook page!
On the 24 Octobe at 12.00 CEST on http://www.unday.org on internet and via SAQ transmitter at the World Heritage Radio Station Grimeton.
Would your school like to be involved in the project "www.unday.org"? A project where students together with artists in the visual, sound and movement develop the school's work on human rights and environmental sustainability.
The project is open to all students, teachers and artists. We love to have contact with other parts of the world. Through cooperation with World Heritage sites in different countries, both contemporary and historical perspectives of cultural heritage, and togetherness between people and nations are communicated.
Since 2011 regional theatre Teater Halland and the World Heritage Grimeton Radio Station has manifested UN day with a global live event broadcasted over the Internet with school children as main actors. They create the contenct and makes different forms of peace manifestations.
Every year it is childrens rights and thoughts concerning a sustainable future that is in focus. At first sight it might be an odd collaboration by cultural institutions – a theater and a radio station… but there are at least two common factors! Both use communication and both have a pedagogical mission in society.
UNESCO, United nations organization for international collaboration concerning education, science and culture, sees the World Heritage Grimeton Radio Station as a remarkable example of human ability to create the first wireless communication between two continents of the world. The world heritage, which uses radio technique developed during the first world war! Every year children prepares peace messages to be sent from Grimeton, a UNESCO symbol of world wide communication!
Within the world of theatres new ways of communication is always searched for. Besides the traditional stage language, verbal as well as non-verbal, the modern technique opens to new ways of expression. With support and inspiration from the pedagogs at the theatre school children gets help in expressing themselves about peace and future also in digital forms. The learn to create music that can be combined with non-verbal expressions and they can learn to produce it with animations. Through the challenge to create non-verbal messages this UNday.org project seeks to bridge language barriers! The messages is presented "live" through this world wide live broadcast over the Internet! We know, that last years broadcast was received and watched by schools in 73 countries!
An important part of this project is that pupils and schools possess a better technique now than when the first men landed on the moon in 1969! Through the digital technique the children have got the tools to reach the whole world!
The project Unday.org focus om global thinking and the use of modern IT for peace, futural and sustainability purposes. It is possible to everyone to formulte and send peace messages world wide! To the leaders and policy makers of the world, to municipality representatives, to idols and even students in other parts of the world!
Join UNday.org and contribute to a more peaceful world through thinking, formulation and communicatin globally.One aim for this project is of course that it will be an ongoing project that engage more and more schools, organizations and other people for each day and year.

Rachel Getting Married Screenwriter to Adapt The Language of Flowers
Have you read The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh yet? I haven't but it sounds wonderful. Check out the video below of the author talking about the book.
Diffenbaugh's debut novel, which was just published this past August, has already been picked up to make into a movie! This morning I read that Jenny Lumet has made a deal with Fox 2000 to write a screenplay. This is great news for Diffenbaugh. Lumet (the daughter of the famous director, Sydney Lumet) is held in high regard for writing the very well received indie film, Rachel Getting Married. The novel sounds great AND it sounds like the script will be in good hands. In the wrong hands the story could be way too schmaltzy but I think with Lumet on board there is no chance of that. If Diffenbaugh is lucky, like Kaui Hart Hemmings was with her debut novel, The Descendants, the filmmakers will make a beautiful beautiful film, introducing the book to an even wider audience.
Here's the publisher's book description:
A mesmerizing, moving, and elegantly written debut novel, The Language of Flowers beautifully weaves past and present, creating a vivid portrait of an unforgettable woman whose gift for flowers helps her change the lives of others even as she struggles to overcome her own troubled past.
The Victorian language of flowers was used to convey romantic expressions: honeysuckle for devotion, asters for patience, and red roses for love. But for Victoria Jones, it's been more useful in communicating grief, mistrust, and solitude. After a childhood spent in the foster-care system, she is unable to get close to anybody, and her only connection to the world is through flowers and their meanings.
Now eighteen and emancipated from the system, Victoria has nowhere to go and sleeps in a public park, where she plants a small garden of her own. Soon a local florist discovers her talents, and Victoria realizes she has a gift for helping others through the flowers she chooses for them. But a mysterious vendor at the flower market has her questioning what's been missing in her life, and when she's forced to confront a painful secret from her past, she must decide whether it's worth risking everything for a second chance at happiness
Watch this video of author Vanessa Diffenbaugh talking about the book and what she says is the basic premise. "What is it like to try to love if you have never been loved yourself?"
Diffenbaugh also credits her discovery of Kate Greenwood's Victorian guide "The Language of Flowers" which she discovered at age 16 as part of her inspiration.

Gender gap in spatial reasoning starts in elementary school, meta-analysis finds
By Carol Clark | eScienceCommons | April 16, 2019
"We're interested in the origins of gender differences in spatial skills because of their potential role in the gender gap we see in math and science fields," says Jillian Lauer, who is set to graduate from Emory in May with a PhD in psychology. (Getty Images)

It is well-established that, on average, men outperform women on a spatial reasoning task known as mental rotation — imagining multi-dimensional objects from different points of view. Men are not, however, born with this advantage, suggests a major meta-analysis by psychologists at Emory University. Instead, males gain a slight advantage in mental-rotation performance during the first years of formal schooling, and this advantage slowly grows with age, tripling in size by the end of adolescence.
The Psychological Bulletin, a journal of the American Psychological Association, is publishing the findings.
"Some researchers have argued that there is an intrinsic gender difference in spatial reasoning — that boys are naturally better at it than girls," says lead author Jillian Lauer, who is set to graduate from Emory in May with a PhD in psychology. "While our results don't exclude any possibility that biological influences contribute to the gender gap, they suggest that other factors may be more important in driving the gender difference in spatial skills during childhood."
Co-authors of the paper include Stella Lourenco, associate professor of psychology at Emory, whose lab specializes in the development of spatial and numerical cognition. Co-author Eukyung Yhang worked on the paper as an Emory undergraduate, funded by the university's Institute for Quantitative Theory and Methods. Yhang graduated in 2018 and is now at Yale University School of Medicine.
The meta-analysis included 128 studies of gender differences in spatial reasoning, combining statistics on more than 30,000 children and adolescents aged three to 18 years. The authors found no gender difference in mental-rotation skills among preschoolers, but a small male advantage emerged in children between the ages of six and eight.
While differences in verbal and mathematical abilities between men and women tend to be small or non-existent, twice as many men as women are top performers in mental rotation, making it one of the largest gender differences in cognition.
Mental rotation is considered one of the hallmarks of spatial reasoning. "If you're packing your suitcase and trying to figure out how each item can fit within that space, or you're building furniture based on a diagram, you're likely engaged in mental rotation, imagining how different objects can rotate to fit together," Lauer explains.

Plant characteristics and classification of feathery false lily of the valley
Plant order, origin and occurrence of feathery false lily of the valley
Characteristics of feathery false lily of the valley
Feathery false lily of the valley – cultivation and care
Care / Watering / Fertilization / Pruning
Creamy white star-shaped flowers, red berry decoration and a harmonious growth pattern make the robust feathery false lily of the valley an elegant appearance in the bed.
Scientific name: Maianthemum racemosum; syn. Smilacina racemosa, Vagnera racemosa
Plant family: asparagus family (Asparagaceae)
Other names: treacleberry, false Solomon's seal, Solomon's plume, false spikenard
Sowing time: autumn
Planting time: spring or autumn
Flowering period: May to June
Location: partially shady to shady
Soil quality: loamy, humus rich
Use in: group planting, planters, underplanting, inner courtyard, potted garden, forest garden
Winter hardiness: hardy, USDA Plant Hardiness Zones: 4 (-32 °C / -25 °F)
The feathery false lily of the valley (Maianthemum racemosa) is a knee-high, herbaceous perennial that grows in large parts of North America and in southern Canada up to an altitude of 2,700 meters (8,850 ft). It prefers forests on moist and soft soils, where it usually forms lush stands. At first sight it resembles lily of the valley and Solomon's seal, but according to the botanical systematics it belongs to a separate genus, whose correct botanical name is Maianthemum and according to which the feathery false lily of the valley is called Maianthemum racemosum. In trade, however, the old name Smilacina racemosa is still used.
The North American perennial is subordinate to the asparagus family (Asparagaceae). Sometimes it is also found under the name false Solomon's seal, which is derived from its similarity to the Solomon's seal and the light scent of its flowers. The young shoots of the false Solomon's seal can, freed from their leaves, be cooked in water and eaten, the resulting smell is similar to that of asparagus. Later, however, the shoots become too fibrous and bitter and the berries are considered highly poisonous.
The perennial herbaceous feathery false lily of the valley forms a cylindrical rhizome that can grow up to 30 centimeters (12 in) long. Initially, upright stems shoot out of this rhizome, which, with the beginning of flowering, tilt down more and more, resulting in a very elegant growth pattern. The height of growth is given as 50 to 90 centimeters (20 to 36 in).
The parallel-veined leaves of the feathery false lily of the valley sit alternately on the stems, are elongated-lanceolate and grow up to 15 centimeters (6 in) long and 6 centimeters (2.4 in) wide. Their fresh green coloration forms a pretty background to the light-colored flowers. In autumn, when the perennial begins to wilt, the leaves turn yellow.
At the end of the stems the creamy white flowers of the feathery false lily of the valley open from May to June. The single star-shaped flower has six petals and grows only a few millimeters in size. The delicate individual flowers form a raceme about 5 centimeters (2 in) long. The scent of the flowers is reminiscent of lily of the valley, but is not as intense.
From June onwards, the false Solomon's seal first forms green, roundish fruits that ripen in late summer and then take on a bright red coloration. Attention, the berries are poisonous!
The feathery false lily of the valley feels most comfortable in partially shady to shady areas. Wind exposed areas should be avoided, as the perennial can suffer from frost in winter without leaves as a protective layer.
As in its natural habitat, the plant appreciates a fresh to moist, humusy loamy soil. The pH value should be in the neutral to slightly acidic range. Good permeability is important, because it does not tolerate waterlogging.
The best planting time for the shrub is spring or autumn. When used in a flat area, six plants per square meter (10 sq ft) and 40 centimeters (16 in) as planting distance are recommended for the false Solomon's seal.
Especially during the growing phase, one should pay attention to an even water supply of the feathery false lily of the valley. Already established stands survive short dry periods without problems. In general: water less often, but thoroughly and penetratingly. The layer of foliage left under the woody plants in autumn usually provides sufficient nutrients, but a layer of compost in spring will not do any harm. The withered above-ground shoots of the plant are cut back to the ground either in autumn or early spring.
When the plants become lazy in flower and begin to age, one should dig out their rhizomes in spring or autumn, divides them and then replants them.
The feathery false lily of the valley can be grown from seed, but it sometimes takes a long time for the seed to emerge, as they need cold to germ. More promising is a vegetative propagation by division of the rhizome. However, newly planted plants should be allowed to grow undisturbed for several years before digging up and dividing them for the first time. The best time to do this is in spring before budding starts or in autumn.
In the right location, thefalse Solomon's seal proves to be a very robust perennial that shows no susceptibility to diseases and pests.
The plant is hardy down to -32 °C / -25 °F. Some cover with leaves or brushwoood is recommended.
The feathery false lily of the valley feels most comfortable under deciduous shrubs or on the edge of a wood, so that it is always slightly shaded. In its natural habitat it is associated with ferns and Pacific trillium (Trillium ovatum), but also astilbes, ornamental grasses and the blue flowering aconite are harmonious partners. It has a clear architectural effect when it is used as an extensive planting in forest garden areas. But the plant also knows how to hold its own in the shadow of walls near buildings and it also feels at home in the undergrowth that accompanies the water. Thanks to its longevity and resistance, it is also a good choice for larger planting pots, making it an enrichment for partially shady balconies and terraces as well as shaded patios.

Expensify Review | Paper-Free, Stressless Expense Tracking | Is It Legit?
Online Investing Guide – Investment Options You Can Manage Yourself.
Keeping track of expenses can be difficult when you are trying to juggle running a business with all of the administrative tasks that come with it.
Receipts can get lost, claims forgotten, and amounts misremembered. Finding the time to dedicate to expenses is difficult, and it is easy to get overwhelmed by all of the paperwork.
Expensify is an easy way to help you stay on top of your expenses with automated systems where necessary to make the whole process smooth and easy to use.
Expensify is a revolutionary expense tracking software package built to streamline your business management.
It helps to speed up the process, automating all of the steps which are suitable, and it can integrate seamlessly into the work schedule of the user, using reliable optical character recognition and a flawless workflow system.
The primary benefit of Expensify is its ability to automate tedious tasks, speeding up the process.
The whole receipt and expense management process can become automatic, leaving your admins free to complete more pressing tasks.
Receipts can easily be lost or misplaced, or become damaged and difficult to read.
Expensify's system allows you to take a picture of the receipt, then it will automatically submit an expenses report without you having to enter any additional information or effort.
Employees directly send their receipts via the mobile app to an inbox, and a party with the correct authority can quickly accept or reject the expense without having to see the whole report.
Company cards can be easily managed from a central location; all card transactions will automatically populate, with every transaction reconciling against the corresponding receipt without the need to spend hours poring over each piece of paper.
One of the critical issues with expenses is getting the authorization of the necessary parties to proceed. However, in general, these people are often the ones who are hardest to get hold of, making the entire process unnecessarily drawn-out and painful.
Expensify offers the option for administrators to customize the expense policy rules for their particular company.
Expensify can be configured to flag any expenses which need a managers review automatically. For example, those over a certain price or from a specific area.
Everything else, such as a $10 meal or $3 coffee, can be automatically approved, saving valuable time and effort.
As well as automatically authorizing requests, admins can also set up other automatic allowances and restrictions, such as standard mileage rates, per diem charges, default hourly rates, currency, and category limitations.
For instance, the app can set limits on the amount which can be spent on hotels or client entertainment.
If a change is made within your accounting system, it can be challenging to make sure the update is transferred and recognized across all systems.
With Expensify, you can automatically synchronize any changes in real time.
This allows for constant clear visibility into the finances of your company, which could be hugely valuable come audit and tax time.
Since the system knows what to expect, and is fully briefed on what expenses to accept and reject, any policy violations will be immediately flagged and identified.
This tells the relevant parties whether an expense has been submitted late, violated a rule, or a fact needs to be checked.
A key feature of Expensify is its ability to integrate easily with a variety of other software programs which may already be used in your business.
Expensify splits its plans into two main categories: individual and group. Each of the two plans offers different features and benefits.
As a bonus, Expensify allows you to try their services for free for seven days, and this trial period can be extended for up to 28 days if you add employees, or use some of the other available features.
You are also entitled to five SmartScans a month on the free account, before upgrading to access more.
Expensify even offers the option of an annual subscription or flexible billing, allowing you to be more in control of your account and the features used. This trial period allws you to pick the best package for your company's needs.
Mobile uploads: There have been some reports of issues with uploading receipts from phones, meaning that additional documentation may be required to verify expenses.
Upfront planning required: Must be used precisely as trained and directed, or else it can result in financial irregularities later on which can be challenging to resolve if the event in question was several months ago.
Expenses are an essential element of business, but unfortunately, they can end up taking up far more time than desired.
Chasing costs and receipts, approving and rejecting requests, and confusion over restriction and limits can all eat away into valuable time which could be focused elsewhere in the business.
They can also cause a headache when it comes to tax returns, as important documentation is missing, leading to delays and frustration in an already stressful process.
Expensify offers a solution to help automate and track expenses while fitting in effortlessly with existing software and procedures.
It takes care of some of the most tedious and time-consuming tasks, such as auto-approving smaller amounts, setting limits and restrictions on what can be claimed, and instantly flagging any violations or confusions that occur, allowing the relevant departments to deal with them more effectively.
If you're looking for help streamlining your business Expensify is definitely a worthwhile investment.

Love Speed & Trains? World's First 600km/h High-speed Train Debuts This Week!
By Satarupa Mitra Datta

If you thought France's TGV is the world's high-speed train, clocking in at 375 mph, then think again. China has topped all! China's Maglav has launched a variant, the magnetic levitation train that is capable of speeding at 600 kph.
At a whooping speed of 600 kph, it would take 2.5 hours to travel from Beijing to Shanghai, a journey of over 1,000 km (620 miles). By comparison the journey will take 3 hours by flights and more 5.5 hours by high-speed rail.
Unimaginable, isn't it? The fastest ground vehicle globally is all geared to be anything but ordinary.
China unveiled this top speed train on Tuesday, as per media reports.
Key features of the world's first high-speed train

The high-speed maglev is self developed by China and manufactured in the coastal city of Qingdao.
Using electro-magnetic force, the maglev train glides above the track with no contact between body and rail.
With no ground contact, the impact of friction diminishes. This makes it more efficient than the usual high-speed trains.
In the new league of high-speed trains, it's said to be the safest and reliable having zero noise pollution and a low level vibration.
For the high cost technology, only countries like France, Japan, Spain, South Korea, and China could sign up for such a transportation system.
The train will feature a large passenger capacity along with fully Wi-Fi and wireless charging zones.
Is China's 600 km/h maglev flying in full swing?
As of now, Shanghai has a short maglev line running from one of its airports to town.
As per reports, Shandong province in East China plans to built the high-speed maglev system that runs from Jinan, the province's capital city to Qingdao. That is to say, it will be the first operational line starting this year, and the test runs shall follow soon.
Also, there are no inter-city or inter-province maglev lines within China. Talks are on as big cities are planning to roll out high-speed maglev lines, including Shanghai and Chengdu.
Maglav high-speed train, as the fastest ground vehicle is China's another cutting-edge design and technological achievement, the world will not soon forget. Riding a train will never be the same anymore!

Question: What are the reasons to get a brow lift rather than botox injections?
Answer: Your question regarding the appropriateness of the brow lift rather than Botox is very common and reflects some of the confusion that is generated in the media. Botox is very effective at decreasing dynamic wrinkles. Brow lift re-drapes soft tissues that have settled over time. As the brows settle, our forehead muscle contracts to compensate for this descent. This does create deeper wrinkles across the forehead. Botox is placed into the muscle to relax these wrinkles. The brow can actually end up excessively low and the results can be very unhappy for the patient and the physician. If your brow seemed to be lower than you'd like and your forehead muscles are working overtime, then a consultation regarding brow lift is very appropriate. If it is just the scowling muscles, the inner portion of the brow above the bridge of the nose, that troubled you, then Botox is an excellent treatment option and surgery can be deferred.
