This week SPORTS ILLUSTRATED publishes the first installment of a three-part series on the pervasive influence of money on professional sports, a project that has proved to be, in some ways, the most ambitious in SI's 24-year history. Part I, Money: The Monster Threatening Sports (page 28), is by far the longest single article the magazine has ever run, and the entire series, we feel, is one of the most enlightening and important to appear in our pages.
The research for the project began more than six months ago with extensive queries sent out by Senior Editor Peter Carry to SI correspondents across the U.S. As the raw information was rolling in, Senior Writer Ray Kennedy, who had been assigned to write the series, was crisscrossing the country interviewing team owners. Each time he returned from the road to his Manhattan apartment he found new stacks of data awaiting him.
"It was like the time they delivered a big block of granite to Michelangelo," says Kennedy. "He walked around this enormous slab, feeling the granite with his hands. Finally he turned to someone and said, 'There's an angel hiding in there.' " His project, Kennedy felt, was in many ways like Michelangelo's, "though I don't know if what we found was an angel."
Indeed, he says, at times it was more like exorcizing a devil. "Preparing this story was like doing your income tax a hundred days in a row. I was an English major. What do I know about amortizing my equity? I had to keep looking a lot of those words up."
Kennedy carted home armloads of books on economic theory, "half of which at first I didn't understand. The challenge for me was to take the so-called 'boring science'—economics—and make it interesting. My first rule of thumb was that if I couldn't understand it, neither could the reader."
Writing the money series raised hob with Kennedy's tennis game. "It was one of those things that you can't walk away from, even for a day, or the whole thread slips away from you," he says. Subsisting on diet cola and take-out food from a neighborhood Latin-American restaurant, Kennedy dropped 12 pounds, and virtually out of sight.
"I was doing these multimillion-dollar calculations," he says, "and meanwhile my own checks were bouncing all over town. I'd gotten so wrapped up in the story I had neglected to take care of my own finances."
Writer-Reporter Nancy Williamson, who assisted Kennedy on the series, interviewed most of the millionaire sports stars for the second installment and more than 50 fans for the third part. The superstars, many of whom Williamson spoke to in their off-seasons, were hard to track down and leery of talking about money, but the fans were a delight. Armed with a roving press pass, Williamson roamed arenas and ball parks, interviewing spectators, who were astonishingly cooperative. What's more, a number of kids wanted Nancy's autograph.

Interoperability is increasingly taking center stage when it comes to care coordination and digital enablement. Most payers have already implemented the first leg of Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) with a view to improving patient access and provider directories. That's just the tip of the iceberg though, as my colleague Dr. Christina Bharathi Remediakis wrote in her blog recently: (FHIR implementation is more than a regulatory tick-off item!).
Another FHIR-y innovation from CMS
A few weeks ago, CMS declared the latest improvement that will be targeted through FHIR for prior authorization (PA) processes. Provider burnout has been a big concern of PAs in the past because providers often spend a lot of time maneuvering through associated approval processes. While reduced administrative transaction cost and a "frictionless" health experience are the core objectives of the PA process, the administrative costs are at least five times higher. Needless to say, it also results in a significant amount of out-of-pocket spend. The most striking challenge though is by the patients. One study suggests that 78% of patients feel that PA-related delays and uncertainties stall treatment plans. The latest release by CMS intends to streamline the PA process in the following five ways using FHIR and a set of added APIs.
Real-time exchange of supporting documentation
CMS has just proposed the use of the Document Requirement Lookup Service (DRLS) API, which will ease the burden created by the tremendous amount of documentation generated by PA processes. The idea is to transparently make the document templates and requirements known to providers at the point of care. The DRLS has two components viz. coverage requirements discovery (CRD) and documentation templates and payer rules (DTRs), which should succinctly define the requirements for a provider and provide a more complete PA documentation. This process is largely manual and often sent through fax, email, etc. – no wonder that PA processes are fully automated in only 13% of provider settings.
"Straight through" submission
The FHIR Prior Authorization Support (PAS) API is supposed to facilitate a direct exchange of data between the EHR system and payer systems for PA decisions. Today, clinicians often rekey the information through payer portals and this is not only error-prone but also extremely manual, requiring several iterations to get the information across to payers. Imagine the potential of PAS, where an EHR system directly sends care details through a FHIR resource which is readily processed within the payer applications to update about the decision and requirements in near-real time. This also eliminates complicated processes where provider staff need to keep track of payer-specific rules and coverage plans.
Transparent denials
Denials significantly impact providers' revenue cycle management and are somewhat more common in the PA scenario. CMS will now require the reason for denial be clearly coded by payers when denying PAs regardless of their source. Several denial AI solutions exist to detect the reasons and address them early on. However, the CMS rule will be a game changer in facilitating better payer provider exchange. The expectation from CMS is to issue decisions on urgent PA requests within 72 hours and for non-urgent cases within seven calendar days, including reasons for denial. This will help to improve PA turnaround as a whole and reduce denials in the long run.
Robust medical necessity definitions
Clinical quality language (CQL) is an FHIR-compliant canonical representation for exchanging clinical knowledge and it can be a great lever for sharing information about medical necessity checks and clinical codes that can be used in real time to check against Medicare rules. CQL can help in effectively documenting the allowable use of certain types of clinical services or medical devices that are covered as part of the plan provided by the payer.
PA auto adjudication
Sooner than we think, auto adjudication of PA may become a reality. With all this improved processing and real-time decision making, it is likely that a significant percentage of PA transactions may not need human intervention or manual data entry by physicians and providers. The data can be populated directly from EHRs and used for decisioning against payers' rules, utilization management, fraud detection, etc.
PA is just one of many examples of how FHIR can significantly alter members' health experience and streamline processes across the entire ecosystem. Although the transformation may be slow, FHIR is an incredibly strong mandate that is likely to change all our touchpoints with healthcare processes. And this is just the beginning!

There's been much chatter over the years about a potential Pretty Little Liars movie. And on Tuesday, you're finally going to get it.
"I knew from the beginning of the season that I wanted this to be a two-hour finale," executive producer Marlene King tells TVLine of the final episode (Freeform, 8/7c). "This last episode gave the Liars a significant amount of closure; they won the game, and it looks as if A.D. is leaving town. So the finale is structured as a two-hour movie. It's paced like a feature film, not the way we do regular episodes. I don't want to give away too much in terms of how [A.D.'s identity] is revealed, but that pacing will feel different and feel special."
Below, King answers more of our burning questions about the game-changing — actually, make that game-ending — episode:
TVLINE | In addition to A.D. reveal, we're also finding out the father of Emily and Alison's baby. Which will surprise us more?
Well, both of them are pretty cool. We've been waiting so long for A.D., but for the father as well. They're both equally rewarding and satisfying. And surprising.
TVLINE | When you wrote this finale, did you compile a list of every unanswered question from the show so you could make sure everything gets wrapped up?
As a writers room, we went through social media and consulted our own unanswered questions, and we did try to put together a list of anything we haven't revealed. To be honest, I actually get a lot of people asking me online about things we have revealed, they just might have forgotten along the way. I think the majority of unanswered questions will be answered.
TVLINE | And what won't we see?
We won't see Jason, because we couldn't get him for the finale. That I can tell you. But other than that, you'll see a lot.
TVLINE | Speaking of seeing a lot, you recently tweeted about the finale having HBO-level sex scenes. How much are you guys really getting away with?
I had never directed a sex scene in any of my episodes, and I directed — on the same evening — three or four back-to-back. It was literally going from this one to that one to this one to that one. It was so interesting to see how each couple likes to be directed. One couple was like, "Just say 'do this' and 'do that,'" while another couple was just like, "Play us some music and we'll go at it." [Laughs]
TVLINE | I've always had a soft spot for the Liars' parents. What role will they play in the finale?
Well, they're definitely in the finale; we get to see the moms and couple of the dads. Because they play such an important role in their children's lives, they're going to be important in the finale.
What are your hopes for the finale? Drop 'em in a comment below.

Happy 4th of July! Hope you are able to enjoy this holiday outside and maybe even at the beach or pool!
If you are still in the market for new swimsuits for the family, I can't rave enough about Target swimsuits! They are so great that me and the kids sported them for our recent beach trip.
The fit is great. They offer different silhouettes for all body types. This is helpful for both of my kids especially since different cuts fit my daughter better than others. My son is on the tall and skinny side and the board shorts stay up great even when he's jumping in the waves or off the diving board.
Quality and value is top notch. I wash them in garment bags in the washer and air dry. They hold up all season. The kids out grow their suits before they even start to look too worn.
Through the 4th all Target swim is on sale! Ladies and kids is 20% off with code SWIM

Dungeness is a hamlet built on one of Europe's largest expanses of shingle. It's located on a remote headland near Kent, fairly near the white cliffs of Dover.
The shingle is strewn with abandoned fishing boats and shipping containers. The hamlet has around 100 (mostly single storey) tin and wood houses, which makes the whole area look like something from an American road movie. An imposing nuclear power station and connected pylons make up the inland horizon.
If you're looking for a highly unusual destination to visit whilst in the UK, it makes a great day out or weekend trip. Dungeness is on a 10,000 hectare Site of Special Scientific Interest, due to the unusual geology and the rare fauna and flora that can be found there. The shingle has patches of sea kale which look strangely like cactii, adding to the American road movie feel. It's jokingly referred to as the UK's only desert- technically untrue, but spiritually spot on.
Why Dungeness is good for photography
The hamlet itself has long been a mecca for artists and photographers who are drawn to the flat, unfettered landscape, the strange manmade shapes (which look like art sculptures), the atmosphere and the ever changing light and seascape.
I visited Dungeness on a late September afternoon, specifically to take photos. I personally found that even at that time of year, the light was better at the end of the afternoon day. It was just too bright at noon – contrast levels were too high. I imagine it would be fantastic at dawn, in fog, or in bleak winter sunshine.
The architecture
What's incredible is that it's a highly desirable place to live, despite the nuclear power station and pylons. Houses are often snapped up by architects who then refurbish them and sell them on for 0.5 to 1 million.
The British film producer and writer Derek Jarman lived in a house here called Prospect Cottage, which still stands. Dungeness provided him with a lot of inspiration for his creativity. You can learn about this in this Nowness film, Great Gardens: Derek Jarman's Prospect Cottage.
I found my future retirement home, for when I eventually stop wandering. It's called The Experimental Station. See below….
It's a former government building where experiments were conducted to test marine and signal apparatus, including the very first unmanned lighthouse. More recently it's been refurbished internally by architects and has won RIBA design awards. You've got to admit, it would be one hell of a special place to live. At times you would surely be struck by lightening!
It even has its own 1950s fog horn tester in the garden. Surely what every aspiring photographer and writer needs 😉
How to get to Dungeness
To visit Dungeness I recommend hiring a car and staying in a local Airbnb. It's quite pricey but cheaper accommodation can be found 30 minutes away. There are buses from Ashford and Dover, but only one per hour.
It's quite a remote area so a car is a must in my view.

For the people of Great Britain, Yorkshire pudding has long been a dish to be proud of. This simple, crispy puffed bread requires only four ingredients that are found in most kitchens.
Making Yorkshire pudding is one way you can connect to your English heritage. If you have other recipes from your ancestors, share them on FamilySearch Memories to preserve them for your descendants.
What Is British Pudding?
"Pudding" can mean various things in the English language,depending on where you live.
If you live in North America, your definition of "pudding"is probably fairly simple. Pudding is a sweet, creamy dessert similar to custard. In the United Kingdom, however, "pudding" can mean several things.
Typically, pudding simply means "dessert"; however, pudding can also refer to both sweet dishes and salty dishes. These dishes are typically made with flour and have a cakelike consistency. Steak and kidney pudding, suet pudding, and Yorkshire pudding are all examples of this kind of pudding. Other types of pudding, such as black pudding and haggis, are savory meat dishes made in a similar way as sausages.
History of Yorkshire Pudding
Yorkshire pudding dates back at least to the 1700s, when it was described as "Dripping Pudding" in The Whole Duty of a Woman. Cooks in the 18th century roasted meat on a spit over the flames in the kitchen fireplace, where it dripped as it cooked. The puddings were carefully placed beneath to catch and be flavored by those drippings.
That book on womanly duties wasn't nearly as widely read as The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy, by Hannah Glass in 1747. Modern-day cooks can follow the simple Yorkshire pudding recipe Hannah left for their great-great-great-grandmothers. However, the narrative may be puzzling to 21st-century cooks:
"Take a quart of milk, four eggs, and a little salt, make it up into a thick batter with flour like a pancake batter. You must have a good piece of meat at the fire, take a stew-pan and put some dripping in, set it on the fire; when it boils, pour in your pudding; let it bake on the fire till you think it is nigh enough. . . . Set your stew-pan [on a downturned pan] under your meat, and let the dripping drop on the pudding, and the heat of the fire come to it, to make it of a fine brown."
Lest the puddings become too greasy, Hannah cautioned the cook to drain the fat from the pudding, set it on the fire again to dry a little, and then add melted butter to the middle, to form "an exceeding good pudding; the gravy of the meat eats well with it."
Today's enthusiasts might not relate to the dish as described by Hannah Glass. The pudding in its various iterations gradually moved from beneath the spit into the roasting pan and, by the 21st century, into cake pans, muffin pans, or pudding tins. A host of Yorkshire pudding variations are relished by diners in restaurants across Great Britain, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada. Today's dish typically doesn't usually include the grease bath recommended by Hannah Glass, but it may still be flavored with beef drippings.
The wonder of this light, puffy bread is that the recipe includes the ingredients that also form the basis of such flat forms as French crepes—nearly equal parts flour, eggs, and milk, with a bit of salt. The secret is to whisk the liquids until they are light and foamy and then to bake the bread in a preheated tin pan in a hot oven. The heat will cause the bread to puff up high and set quickly and then turn a golden brown.
This modern, simple Yorkshire pudding recipe is adapted from the New York Times.
Modern-Day Simple Yorkshire Pudding Recipe
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup milk
- 3/4 cup flour
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup melted butter (Rendered beef or pork fat can be substituted for butter for a more traditional flavor.)
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Whisk together eggs and milk until they are foamy, and then mix with flour and salt. Do not overmix. Allow the batter to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Add about a teaspoon of fat to each cup of a muffin tin. Place the tin in the oven to heat for five to seven minutes.
- Fill each cup of the muffin tin to about half full, and return the tin to the oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the puddings are crisp and golden brown. Serve immediately, drizzled with remaining melted butter as desired.
- Recipe yields 12

waste time(redirected from wastes her time)
waste time
1. To procrastinate; to avoid doing something, especially by engaging in some frivolous or diversionary activity. Mark, please stop wasting time and get on with your presentation! Whenever I ask the kids to do their chores, they always find some way or another to waste time. You can tell it's Monday because everyone in the office keeps wasting time over by the water cooler.
2. To spend time engaging in idle, unproductive, or unhelpful activities in order to consume spare time. In this usage, a modifier can be used between "waste" and "time." I remember being a kid and wasting huge amounts of time just strolling around the mall on the weekend. Come meet us for a coffee! We're just wasting time near the station until our train leaves.
3. To do or say something that takes up one's or someone else's time in a useless or unhelpful manner. In this usage, a possessive adjective can be used between "waste" and "time." If you don't have anything useful to contribute, then please just get out of here and stop wasting my time. She's wasting her time trying to convince the boss to increase the budget. I hate it when people hold up the ticket counter at airports with these petty complaints. Don't they realize that they're wasting everyone's time?

I signed up for another one of Mary Ann Moss's awesome classes. This one is called Full Tilt Boogie and we are making different journals with antique photo album covers and old books. Mary Ann's classes are full of beautiful videos with great information and, also, membership in a wonderful community of fellow artist and classmates. I think I signed up mostly for the community. I've made a lot of journals and I never get tired of the process. What I really need to work on is the journaling. I'm still struggling with a personal process that works for me. Anyway, here are a few photos of my first journal for FTB.
The covers on this journal are from an old Nathaniel Hawthorne book with a torn spine. I loved the marbled paper on the cover and thought it was perfect for this technique. The signatures are made from a variety of different papers from vintage ledger to new scrapbook card stock to watercolor paper. It ended up a little bit smaller than I would have wanted so next time I think I'll add more signatures. If I ever get around to filling it, hopefully that will bulk it up.

text: The underlying factors include the fact that it was Japan's first military occupation by foreigners (Takemae and Ricketts xxvi). Additionally, the devastation suffered during the Second World War which left Japan vulnerable so that cooperation with the foreigners was not a problem, the approach was taken by the US to restructuring Japan's post-war constitution and military (Dower 199, 24).The US occupation of Japan provided a unique opportunity for the US to influence political and social change in a country that was weakened "both psychologically and physically" (Scalapino 1976, 104). Both of these traits, Japan's defeat and the US opportunity to influence political and social change, would provide the basic and underlying reasons for why the US occupation of Japan would bring about so much change during the former's occupation. To begin with, when US troops occupied Japan in August 1945, the country was in ruins, particularly in Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Japanese leaders were in a state of shock and the population fearful of what the "victors" might put them through (Schonberger 1989, 1). The Supreme Commander of the Allied Powers, General MacArthur was prepared to reconstruct what was characterized as "an ancient and highly sophisticated society" with a population of eighty million people (Schonberger 1989, 1).A political and socio-economic thought in Japan preceding the Second World War would operate in conjunction with the post-war devastation that the US met upon occupying Japan. Japan's modern state which evolved during the Meiji era from 1868 was a "state political project" aimed at the modernization and Westernization of Japan (Shibata 2005, 2). On another level, the War itself resulted in a climate between the US and Japan where each side demonized the other. For the Japanese, the US represented "white supremacy" and were put together with the British perceivedas "demonic and beastly" Anglo-Saxons".

All News Releases By Date
EPA Announces 2008 Renewable Fuels Standard
Release Date: 11/27/2007
Contact Information: Margot Perez-Sullivan (202) 564-4355 / firstname.lastname@example.com
(11/27/07) Today, the EPA is setting a new renewable fuels standard (RFS) of 4.66 percent to meet the 2005 Energy Policy Act's mandate that at least 5.4 billion gallons of renewable fuels be blended into transportation gasoline in 2008. Based on the standard, each party determines the minimum volume of renewable fuel that it must ensure is used in its motor vehicle fuel. The standard for 2007 was 4.02 percent, equating to roughly 4.7 billion gallons. The overall volume target increases every year, reaching 7.5 billion gallons in 2012. The Energy Policy Act requires EPA to annually determine the standard -- which applies to refiners, importers and non-oxygenate blenders of gasoline -- by Nov. 30 for the following year.
The RFS program, which formally began last September, creates new markets for farm products, increases energy security, and promotes the development of advanced technologies that would greatly expand renewable and alternative fuels. It also serves as one of the many pieces to help inform the greenhouse gas regulation that EPA and federal partners are developing under an Executive Order issued by President Bush in May.

The European Union unanimously approved measures that will require member states to take steps to slash the use of plastic bags on Friday. Under the new EU law, the number of lightweight plastic bags will be limited to 90 per person per year by the end of 2019, representing a reduction of 50% from current use.
This number will be further reduced to 40 per person by the end of 2025. Average consumption of single-use plastic bags was 176 bags per person in 2010. Alternatively, member states may choose to ensure that, by 2018, these bags are not handed out to shoppers free of charge
"This is an historic moment for all of Europe. For the first time ever we have agreed on ambitious measures to reduce the amount of plastic bag waste in the environment. This is good news for the environment and all Europeans who expected the EU to take ambitious action on plastic bags", said Margrete Auken (Greens/EFA, DK), who is steering the legislation through Parliament.
"As front-running countries have demonstrated, dramatically reducing the consumption of these disposable bags is easily achievable with a consistent policy. Swiftly phasing out these bags is a readily-implementable solution to the pervasive problem of plastic waste in the environment", she added.
Lightweight plastic bags thinner than 50 microns – the vast majority of plastic carrier bags used in the EU – are less reusable than thicker models and become waste more quickly. They are also more prone to litter the environment.
PlasticsEurope states it "would be in favor of regulating oxo-degradable plastics"
PlasticsEurope has expressed its concerns regarding the agreement reached between Member States and negotiators from the European Parliament on the proposal on plastic bags
While the plastics industry supports a mandatory charge on all bags regardless of which material they are made from, the European plastics industry fears that the possibility for Member States to ban lightweight plastic bags sets a precedent which will lead to a patchwork of national regulations on other types of packaging as well, thereby creating trade barriers and hindering the EU internal market.
"The possibility to ban plastics bags goes against the general principle of the Packaging and Packaging Waste Directive. It is concerning as it opens the door for Members States to ban not only plastics bags but other types of packaging as well. Such an inconsistent political framework that would allow Member States to introduce different regulations on packaging would hinder investments and innovation and would create barriers to trade in packaged goods in Europe" said Karl-H. Foerster, Executive Director of PlasticsEurope.
PlasticsEurope would support a regulation on the use of so-called "oxo-degradable" plastics in Europe since independent studies have shown that the fragmentation process is often inadequate and that the chemicals used are detrimental to the recycling process. The review of the Packaging and Packaging Waste Directive will offer the opportunity to regulate such products.

Chef Kevin Meehan has had his hands (knife? offset spatula?) all over L.A.'s food scene. Whether it was during his days as chef de cuisine of Patina, executive chef of Café Pinot, or chef and proprietor of Kali Dining—his roving passion project/supper club—chances are you at least know someone who's had his food. Back in January, he opened up Kali on Melrose, his very own brick and mortar serving the kind of Michelin-quality food his name has always been associated with. But when Meehan isn't busy beignet-battering limpets or topping crudos with citrus foam, what's he eating? Here are his five favorite dishes from around L.A.
1 . Pork Bossam at Kobawoo House
"This is my favorite Korean dish—it's what I would order on my death bed. They serve you thinly sliced braised pork butt or shoulder with garnishes, and you're meant to roll it up in fermented cabbage leaves topped with pickled and spicy vegetables. It's also meant to be eaten with too much beer."
2 . Leek & Tongue with Salt at Manpuku Tokyo BBQ
"They have a great selection of grilled meat and an amazing garlic rice dish, but my favorite is their signature salted beef tongue with leeks."
3 . Falafel Plate at Habayit
"This is the best Israeli food in LA. The falafel is amazing—I usually get it as a plate with fresh pita, tahini, and hummus that feels like lotion."
4 . Potato Rosti with Smoked Salmon at Winsome
"My buddy Jeremy Strubel just opened this spot in the ground floor of the Elysian building off Sunset near Dodger Stadium. It's the best new brunch spot in LA — we've been several times already, and the early fan favorite is the potato rosti with smoked salmon, two sunny eggs, avocado, fennel pollen, and basil tahini."
5 . Chicken Shawerma Wrap at Zankou Chicken
"A total guilty pleasure, and I'm sure there are tons of better spots to get this dish, but Zankou is an L.A. institution. It's all about the garlic spread."

Wood fuel markets in Northern Europe.
Diss. (sammanfattning/summary)
Skinnskatteberg :
Sveriges lantbruksuniv.,
Acta Universitatis Agriculturae Sueciae, 1652-6880
; 2012:39
[Doctoral thesis]
High fossil fuel prices and ambitions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions have increased demand for renewable energy and are changing wood fuel market structures. Wood fuels are to a rapidly growing degree used in industrial proportions and traded in commercial markets. Wood fuels are seen as a key component to achieve policy goals related to climate change, especially in the EU. In the six papers that form the basis for this thesis, prices of wood fuels in Northern Europe are analyzed by means of time series analysis to increase understanding about the factors that govern market development. In Paper I, it is found that whereas the Austrian and German residential-quality wood pellet markets are integrated, Sweden is a separate market. The conclusion from Paper II is that despite a long history of trade in wood fuels between Estonia and Sweden, the two markets cannot be considered integrated. The results from Paper III indicate that refined and unrefined wood fuels should be seen as two separate markets, and that forest chips prices follow different trajectories depending on whether they are used in district heating or in forest industries. In Paper IV, it is acknowledged that although high and volatile oil prices are an important driver for the growth in demand for wood fuels, no significant spillover from oil price developments into Swedish wood fuel prices could be discerned in the time period 1993-2010. In Paper V, the conclusion is that prices of industrial roundwood and unrefined wood fuels followed a common trend in Sweden in the first decade of the 21st century. Paper VI shows that there is a significantly higher level of market maturity and internationalization in the Danish wood pellet market compared to the wood chip market in the country. In conclusion, this thesis uncovers some of the mechanisms that affect wood fuel markets, including the differences between unrefined wood fuels – such as wood chips – and the dynamic market for wood pellets. Whereas unrefined wood fuel markets still are mainly national, wood pellet markets are becoming internationalized. As for external impacts on wood fuel prices, the influence of forest products markets seem hitherto have been more important than oil price fluctuations. Wood fuels can be an important part of the future European energy system, but the complexities of the markets must be understood more thoroughly to ensure efficient resource utilization.

text: At the Oscars tonight, Asghar Farhadi's The Salesman won for best foreign language film. Farhadi, an Iranian native, did not attend the awards, a silent protest against the ban on travelers from seven predominantly Muslim countries (including Iran). Accepting on Farhadi's behalf, Plano's Anousheh Ansari, an Iranian-American engineer (and the first self-funded woman to fly to the International Space Station), read a statement from the director that celebrated filmmakers' ability to "create empathy between us and others, an empathy which we need today more than ever."

Soon after my book about the Greek mystic philosopher Plotinus was published, I sent a copy off to the Bryn Mawr Classical Review. Since I managed to write "Return to the One" without any formal education in the classics or Greek philosophy, I figured it would be cool to even have a chance of being reviewed by an entity that "publishes timely reviews of current scholarly work in the field of classical studies."
Yesterday I decided to see if a review had been posted. My timing was excellent. A review by Dr. G.S. Bowe of Bilkent University had just appeared. You can read it here.
I'm fairly happy with the review. Applying editing techniques similar to those used in writing movie ads, I'll be able to make good use of Dr. Bowe's positive comments: Written in a fresh and accessible style…surprisingly sane, clear-headed, and well-written. Well, maybe I should leave out "surprisingly," which Bowe apparently threw in because of my "idiosyncrasy of presentation" and "jarring insistence of naming all 43 sub-sections with alliterative subtitles."
Hey! I should get extra credit for those subtitles (God is the Goal, Love is Limitless, Beauty is Beyond, and so on). You can't believe how long it took me to find alliterations for every one of those 43 subjects. My dictionary was exceedingly well-thumbed by the time I got to the final "Vision is Veracity" chapter.
I could also quibble with some other critiques in the review. I might send off a response to the Bryn Mawr folks on a few points where I feel Dr. Bowe, well, missed the point. Most notably, he doesn't appreciate my emphasis on looking upon Plotinus as a mystic who urges us to experience the metaphysical truths described in the Enneads, as opposed to intellectually understanding them.
Right on p. xvii, before the book even starts using regular numbers on the pages, I said: "I do believe that it is possible to know the spiritual truths that Plotinus knew, but only if we inwardly become our true selves, which will be found to be identical with Plotinus's true self. This obviously separates my approach from most scholars, for they poke and probe Plotinus's teachings as if they were external objects of knowledge akin to fossils excavated from an ancient riverbed, which is exactly how Plotinus says we should not consider his philosophy."
So when Dr. Bowe laments that I fail to discuss how Plotinus's teachings were influenced by Aristotle, Parmenides, and other philosophers, I don't feel that I failed to be true to the heart of Plotinus's mystical message. Plotinus doesn't want us to think our way to wisdom, but to intuit our way to union with the One—the ultimate source of all that is good, true, and beautiful.
All in all, though, I'm pleased that Dr. Bowe took the time to read and review a book by a non-scholar. I entirely agree with him that my approach limits "the text's usefulness to Plotinus scholarship." I never intended that "Return to the One" be a scholarly book. It is a book aimed at those who want to really return to the One, not just think about returning.

Do companies sometimes 'ghost' job applicants? Ask HR
Johnny C. Taylor Jr., a human resources expert, is tackling your questions as part of a series for USA TODAY. Taylor is president and CEO of the Society for Human Resource Management, the world's largest HR professional society.
The questions are submitted by readers, and Taylor's answers below have been edited for length and clarity.
Have a question? Do you have an HR or work-related question you'd like me to answer? Submit it here.
Question: Last month, I had what I thought was a great interview with a company I'm interested in. I followed up, sent thank-you notes – and never heard back. Do companies often "ghost" job candidates? How can I make sure this doesn't happen moving forward? – Anonymous
Johnny C. Taylor Jr.: I'm sorry you never heard back. However, I want to applaud you for bringing your best self forward and following up. Never underestimate the power of a genuine thank-you note!
This year, business has been anything but usual. For many companies, this has disrupted everything from operations down to the hiring process, too. I've seen firsthand how HR staff and hiring managers are working nonstop to help their business navigate a changing workplace – it's a lot!
This might not be the answer you were hoping for, but your situation is not uncommon. Qualified job candidates can go through many steps of the application process only to be left without closure from the company. Is this a best practice? No. But does it happen from time to time? Yes.
That said, there are a few reasons why you might have been "ghosted." For one, it's quite possible they simply don't have the time or resources to respond to every candidate that applies.
Second, there are many moving parts when it comes to recruiting – trust me, I know. Given today's climate, business circumstances may have changed, causing businesses to freeze hiring for this specific position (or hiring in general) until the economy stabilizes a bit more. I wouldn't count your application out just yet!
You did the right thing by expressing your gratitude for their time and consideration. From what you've told me, it also sounds as if you made a good impression during your interview, and the company may keep your resume on file for future opportunities.
Ultimately, though, don't wait for a response if you need a job now. Keep your head up and your eyes peeled, and hopefully you will find the right role and company for you soon.
Question: I was recently offered a promotion. It's more money but a lot more responsibility. I'm currently juggling an already heavy workload as well as supervising my children, who are doing virtual learning. I want this promotion, but I don't think I have the personal and professional bandwidth at the moment. Can I defer my promotion, or will it hurt my chances of getting promoted in the future? – Anonymous
Taylor: First, congratulations on your promotion offer! I know your apprehension about it is a drag right now, but it truly is a success worth celebrating: Your manager very clearly values your talent, work ethic and personality.
The job hunt:How do I look for a new job without telling my boss? Ask HR
Applying for a job:Are resumes and cover letters obsolete? Ask HR
In the roughly seven months since the coronavirus pandemic upended the workplace, many of us have been stuck juggling personal and professional commitments and obligations. So I totally understand your reservations about taking on more when you already have so much. These arrangements that, initially, felt temporary are increasingly feeling more eternal in nature.
But these struggles will pass, so I would encourage you to refrain from passing on this opportunity without first carefully weighing your options. After all, if you defer for today, there's no guarantee another promotion will be lying in wait for you right around the corner.
While I don't know the specifics of your situation, many managers are increasingly sensitive to the mix of personal and professional strains weighing on their people. So, before making your decision, speak up and start a transparent conversation with your boss. You may be able to brainstorm ideas and solutions to make this promotion work for you and the company.
When you do, try not to let your worries overwhelm the tone and mood of the conversation. Lead with, and emphasize, your enthusiasm and gratitude for the offer, and then weave in the practical concerns and limitations on your mind. Keep things bright and energetic to show you really want this to work, not only for yourself, but your manager and the organization, too.
If flexible scheduling isn't an option, you can also respectfully negotiate job details with your manager. That could include changing the official start date or working out a slow transition into your new position.
Of course, the only way you'll really know what's possible will come from a conversation with your manager. Congrats, again – and good luck!

We have to hand it to you…you are careful about your facial skin-care routine – you wash, moisturize, exfoliate and use sunscreen. But other than a weekly manicure, you may be neglecting your hands – and they may be revealing your age. We offer many amazing procedures and treatments for your face and also for your hands.
We love to advise our clients on their skin care and regularly admonish them to care for their hands – because sometimes no matter what you do to look younger, your hands can and often do, give away your age. Continue reading to learn a few tips for caring for your hands:
- Don't skip on hand-cream, lotion or moisturizer. While your hands won't reveal the obvious signs of aging until you're in your 40s, using a good hand-cream early on will work to your advantage later.
- Use sunscreen. If possible, choose a hand-cream or moisturizer with added sunscreen. Exposure to the sun's UV and UVB rays is the main culprit when it comes to those aging sun spots, and the premature appearance of wrinkles, not only on your face but on your hands as well.
- Always wear rubber gloves when washing dishes or when you have your hands in water. The chemicals in cleaning products can wreak havoc on your hands.
- If your skin is sensitive, avoid harsh cleaning products which can contribute to making your hands dry and flaky.
- Last but not least, we invite you to call our office to schedule an appointment for a hand rejuvenation procedure such as a chemical peel or laser skin resurfacing.
If you are noticing the obvious signs of aging on your hands, let us help you. Get your skin and hands ready for winter and those upcoming holiday celebrations. Call, today: (203) 453-6635.

East Bay Pediatrics supports vaccinating all children according to the schedule published by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the American Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP).
Please see the minimum vaccine requirement for East Bay Pediatrics.
In the past ten years, there has been a lot of controversy about vaccines and a lot of media attention to the subject. We strongly believe that the concerns about vaccines have been based on disproven, faulty research and sensationalist reporting. What is often overlooked by the media is how dangerous the infections are that the vaccines prevent.
The vaccines we recommend target life-threatening infections that were routinely fatal less than one hundred years ago. Infections such as pertussis (whooping cough), measles and haemophilus influenza B (meningitis) were common, and have been nearly eradicated because of the campaign to vaccinate all children against these diseases. However, as more parents have doubts about vaccines, and either decline or delay vaccines, these infections are able to return to the community. In the past few years, children have died from all of those diseases, either because they had not been vaccinated, by the parent's choice, or because they were too young or medically unable to get the vaccine and were exposed to someone with the infection.
Most of the controversy about vaccines has focused on whether vaccines, or preservatives in vaccines like thimerosal, cause autism or developmental delays. All of the current research, which is based on years of scientific research with data on millions of children, convincingly disproves a connection between vaccines and autism. Some parents are concerned that vaccines can harm a child's immune system or development. These concerns have also been thoroughly researched and proven to be unfounded.
We understand that it can be confusing and scary to read about diseases like autism, and also to hear about rare complications of vaccines. Researchers continue to look for causes of autism, but we do know that vaccines are not considered to be a cause. And while there are rare, and unfortunately sometimes serious, complications of vaccines, they are extremely uncommon, and the risks are far outweighed by the life-saving benefits of vaccines.
Some parents request to delay or use an "alternative schedule" for vaccines, thinking that as long as they get the vaccines eventually there is no down-side. In fact, many vaccines are given to protect a child when they are most at risk for those diseases, so delaying the vaccine puts the child at risk for illness and even death. Following an alternative schedule goes against our medical advice. Our practice has a timeline for those parents who still wish to follow an alternative schedule with minimum requirements (scroll down), to ensure the safety of your child.
For those families who do still choose to vaccinate on a delayed schedule, it is important for those families to relay that information to the doctors and nurses who may be advising you when your child is sick, as their immunization status may influence our medical care of your child.
For those families who refuse to meet our minimum requirements, or do not want to vaccinate their child, we will help you find another health care provider to meet your needs.
Resources about Vaccines
We encourage all of our parents and patients to share with us their specific concerns, so that we may educate you and provide you with reputable sources to do more of your own reading. Reliable resources on vaccines, their effects, and side effects are sometimes difficult to find in the media. Listed here are a few links to websites which may answer some of your questions about vaccines:
- American Academy of Pediatrics In addition to policy on vaccines, the AAP's new Immunization Page contains up-to-date information on vaccines for parents. Or check out the Sound Advice audio information on the HealthyChildren.org website.
- Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) The CDC provides Vaccine Information sheets (links available on our vaccine schedule page). The parent information page provides several articles on topics including understanding vaccines, questioning vaccines, myths about vaccines, and risks of not vaccinating.
- Paul Offit Dr. Offit has written several books about vaccines and the myths which surround vaccines. Check them out at your local library or bookstore:
- Vaccines: What Every Parent Should Know
- Autism's False Prophets: Bad Science, Risky Medicine, and the Search for a Cure
- Immunization Action Coalition The most thorough website in regards to the latest information on vaccines and safety. Check out Dr. Ari Brown's article Clear Answers & Smart Advice about your Baby's Shots.
- Parents of Kids with Infectious Diseases (PKIDs) can tell you more about preventing the spread of diseases, from hand washing to vaccines. This organization also provides support for parents whose children have fallen ill to certain diseases.
In 2016 a law was passed in California mandating certain vaccine requirements for school entry, and prohibiting personal or religious belief exemptions to these requirements. The vaccines required for school entry can be found here.
East Bay Pediatrics Vaccine Schedule
The East Bay Pediatrics recommended visit and vaccine schedule varies only slightly from the AAP and CDC recommended schedule. The CDC Vaccine Information Sheets are linked to the vaccine schedule. Ask your doctor if you have any further questions about these vaccines.
Some families desire to spread out immunizations even further; however the practice has set a minimum vaccine requirement in order to protect all of our patients and ensure proper advice is given to all families in the event of illness. If your child is behind the practice's routine vaccine schedule, please notify any health care provider, even within our practice, when discussing your child's health or an illness. Medical decisions may depend on whether your child has been fully vaccinated.

Every so often, I decide I have enough eyeshadow. Enough palettes, all the shades I could ever want or need. And I probably do, but it never stops me from adding just one more to the must have pile. The Rodial Smokey Eye Sculpt Eyeshadow Palette is the newest in that pile, and without getting ahead of myself, must say it's really something. Really.
The Rodial Smokey Eye Sculpt Eyeshadow Palette boasts 6 neutral shadows in a compact palette. The slim, mate black palette features a full mirror and is the perfect on the go size- about the size of a cell phone. It will fit in just about any makeup bag and offers everything needed for basic to smokey looks.
The bulk of the shadows are matte, with just one pearl shade, which is just fine since Rodial apparently makes incredible mattes. Who knew? The shadows all have a silky-smooth texture that is neither dry or powdery. They apply and bend effortlessly, and are pretty much perfect.
Rodial Smokey Eye Sculpt Smokey Look
The beauty of this palette is that you can create basic neutral looks through to bolder, full on smokey looks (along with whatever falls between the two.) I obviously, went with smokey, but opted to give it a green infusion (an early St. Patrick's day nod) by using a green base (MUFE Aqua XL liner in I-34) on the lid. I used the black over it, a mix of the lighter tan shade and lighter taupe shade through the crease and the light cream shade as an under brow highlight. I added a pop of the coppery shimmer in the inner corner and finished with House of Lashes X Sephora Seductress lashes and black liner in my waterline and tight-line.
Overall, I am majorly impressed by this palette! If you're looking to add an easy to pack, or mostly matte palette to your collection this is definitely worth the purchase. All of your basics are included and you can't beat the easy to use formula. What do you think? Could your collection use this palette?

Matt Eastwood has been named McCann Health's new global chief creative officer.
The move saw Eastwood leave a similar position at J. Walter Thompson (JWT), a marketing communications agency that recently announced it will merge with WPP's digital agency Wunderman.
Eastwood served at JWT for almost five years, but has long been in the agency sector, previously working for groups such as DDB New York and Saatchi & Saatchi.
At McCann Health the new role will see Eastwood take on a creative leadership role, and according to the group's chief exec John Cahill, his "broad background and sterling creative reputation will be of great relevance and value" to its portfolio of health, wellness and pharma clients.
Rob Reilly, Global Creative Chairman of McCann Worldgroup, said: "Matt is an immense talent, but an even better human. He is exactly the kind of global creative leader we need at this moment to continue McCann Health's growth and commitment to do meaningful work for our brand partners."
The company has been searching for a candidate since July last year, after its former chief creative officer Jeremy Perrot was dismissed following an investigation that found him in violation of its code of conduct.
Eastwood said: "I've been impressed for some time with the creative renaissance that Rob Reilly and his teams have brought to all of McCann World Group. And like many in the business, I've been especially aware of some of the outstanding and meaningful creative work that McCann Health in particular has been doing around the world, befitting their reputation as one of the world's most awarded global healthcare communications companies."
Eastwood joins McCann's New York hub, which is just one of 60 offices spanning across 20 countries.
Last year the group announced it has launched a global scientific council, which aims to offer evidence-based science to its pharma and healthcare clients.
Remarkable but responsible creative work. We're most passionate about the pursuit of original, powerful ideas that our clients can harness...

We accidentally-on purpose ran into Denver Holt today, while we were (what and where else) scoping a Snowy Owl on her nest, with mate nearby attending. Denver gave us an overview of Snowy Owls in the Arctic: how lemmings drive the train, how pairs with hyper-aggressive males seem to be more successful at raising large broods.

[Sun not-set over Barrow right now, as seen out my hotel room window at 11:46 p.m., looking north-northwest.]
Tomorrow's our last day here, so I had to stay up for the midnight sun. Can't sleep anyway - My body has always wanted to go to sleep within an hour of sundown and wake up a little before sun-up, long winter nights or short summer ones. Or no nighters here, apparently. Luckily Mark and I scored a free upgrade to first class for our flight from Fairbanks to Minneapolis on Sunday - sleepy time then, hopefully, with Arctic dreams, as Barry Lopez so aptly titled his book.

MSNBC, which has given more wall to wall coverage of Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump's events than any other cable news network, is giving Trump his own town hall tonight, which will directly compete with a multi-candidate GOP town hall being hosted by CNN.
The event, which airs at 8 p.m., will feature questions from South Carolina voters and will be moderated by Morning Joe co-hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski. It will be preceded by an hour long interview of Ohio Gov. John Kasich—who had a strong second place finish in the New Hampshire primary last week—by Chris Matthews.
CNN's town hall will feature Cruz, Rubio and Carson tonight, and Trump, Bush and Kasich tomorrow night.
While all six candidates will get primetime exposure, Trump has the distinct advantage, with his MSNBC appearance giving him an opportunity not being afforded to the other candidates.
The MSNBC town hall has raised a few eyebrows since both Brzezinski and Scarborough visited Trump's hotel suite on the evening of the New Hampshire primary, forcing the network to release a statement on the matter.
That followed Trump's comments earlier in the day when he described Brzezinski and Scarborough as "supporters," to which Scarborough immediately replied that Trump was referring to them having seen the potential of his campaign, and not being political supporters.
They may not be political supporters, but it is clear that MSNBC has no problem pandering to Trump to grab some of the ratings gold that he brings.
