We should demand a world with unions for the most vulnerable, the folks out in the fields picking fruit, or behind the counters at fast-food restaurants, or cleaning floors, or trimming hedges, ... it's a long list if you survey the entirety of California labor.
How can anyone pretend that the ability to fire highly paid managers is anywhere in the same moral universe? The specialized skill and hard work that these folk (presumably) have is always in high demand... unless of course there are folks in their ranks lacking one of these, in which case there's another powerful reason to oppose capitulating.
Please, let's leave this nonsense behind, and let's get out there together and fight the real union battle that unfortunately is not yet raging.

Why is it that the ones doing the least amount of actual work in America are amongst the highest paid?
They also get 'golden parachutes' & opportunities to 'double-dip' (post retirement PERS) whereas the average worker has to stand in line at the EDD office for a mere pittance?

"The fact that the two parties have been negotiating since 2011 with no agreement is "outrageous," Clement concluded."
There must be an explanation for this. We have a reputation for protracting things, but even so, seven years is a long time. Maybe each side needs better negotiators.

@Annette: if you read the PERB proposed decision, the reason the two sides have been negotiating for seven years without reaching an agreement is pretty clear: the city has been negotiating in bad faith the whole time, with no intention of ever approving an agreement with UMPAPA. In effect, they've been letting these employees hang out to dry, without so much as a cost of living adjustment in that period, as retribution for the employees forming this union in the first place. It's shameful.

Less pay (or reduced pay grades)>>>for nondescript administrators, perpetual desk jockeys & redundant power point creators.
More pay>>>for those who actually work for a living & get their hands dirty.
Their work projects are far more visible to the average citizen than a bunch of stupid reports that quickly become yesterday's news.
Eliminate expensive consultant fees & make so-called 'specialized' city employees do the work instead. Saves money & trims the fat.

Unions for public sector = no bueno. They just turn around and spend dues on politicians that will give them a better contract and we as taxpayers get left holding the bag.
The fact that UMPAPA hasn't figured this out already (because the SEIU certainly has) makes you wonder how effective this union really is.

Be nice. Do not attribute to malice what can be explained as routine incompetence.

Why not outsource the entire operation via competitive bidding? We'd save a TON:
- no lifetime extended health care benefits to employees and part time workers
- no luxurious pensions after a couple decades of work (which even PA residents typically don't have)
- avoid egregious CPAU behaviors (like working on private projects on city time)
- no overpaid administrators
Just need a couple of smart execs to oversee the operation and develop intelligent rules for private companies to bid on the work without sacrificing longer term priorities.

@Curmudgeon: Seriously, read the proposed decision. The ALJ specifically calls the city out for bad faith negotiation tactics (repeatedly cancelling meetings at the last minute, sending negotiators to negotiate without any authority, etc.). This really was malice, not incompetence.
a resident of another community

Staff represented by UMPAPA have not received any cost of living increases since 2013 when a contract was imposed on them by the City (see: Web Link).
The Utilities strategic plan adopted by the City Council in March 2018 (see: Web Link) contains Priority 1: Workforce--We must create a vibrant and competitive environment that attracts, retains, and invests in a skilled and engaged workforce." It's a joke since the City negotiates in bad faith and can't expect to attract or retain skilled workers.
It's both incompetence and malice by top City management and the Council.
a resident of another community
on Aug 2, 2018 at 4:14 pm
From reading the PERB ruling, the judge determines that the City appears to use excessive delaying tactics to avoid offering any increased compensation to the UMPAPA group. One small example is that after finally completing a salary survey (leaving alone that it select irrelevant comparator agencies), it waits another year or two so that the data in the survey is outdated.
Page 61 of the PERB ruling states: "That the parties have been in negotiations since 2011 with no agreement is outrageous. That the City continued to approach negotiations with UMP AP A with no sense of urgency after several years of painfully slow progress gives rise to a strong inference of bad faith."
And on page 63, you see: "Based on a totality of circumstances, including predictably unacceptable proposals, unexplained or unjustified delays in bargaining and a lack of authority of its negotiator, I find that the City breached its duty to meet and confer in good faith."
This is all a sad statement of how the City of Palo Alto operates.

"no luxurious pensions after a couple decades of work (which even PA residents typically don't have)"
Well, maybe you could get them if you put the energy you put into feeling sorry for yourself into getting a job with a good pension. I did.
"This really was malice, not incompetence."
You could be right, but it goes against my experience with senior city hall management.

Good for you. Some of us would rather not be feeding via the public teat with inflated pensions which are now driving the cities to bankruptcy. Rather be economic engine than economic freight.

Civil service administrative jobs are strictly for those who just want to put in their time & collect PERS later down the road.
Mediocrity = security (especially SC County jobs). CA State jobs are next as anyone who has stood in line at the DMV or EDD will attest. Working hard is not in the DNA of anyone employed there.
And last but not least...US Postal workers (especially those working at the counter).
For these positions, job-related stress is an oxymoron. It's the boredom that will kill you.

As a former Palo Alto Utilities employee, I can tell you from experience that these are not easy "desk jockey" jobs. The Senior Engineers are expected to manage multiple projects, supervise employees and perform technical work such as setting electric system protection relays.
These senior engineer jobs are very comparable to those at investor-owned utilities such as PG&E, and also cities with their own electric systems such as Santa Clara. That's why UMPAPA benchmarked these job positions and not just the generic "city engineer" jobs that Palo Alto wanted to benchmark.

@Peninsula Commuter
I think DT was referring to lesser skilled government jobs requiring the minimum of technical skills or education.
It's usually reflected in the civil service exams & application criteria.

I got mine by competence on the job, so I'm not obsessed over others getting theirs. If you think they got too much, talk to the people they negotiated with. None of this came down the mountain with Moses, you know. It came from people talking with people.

For a moment, ignore context and simply read this comment by Curmudgeon: "Be nice. Do not attribute to malice what can be explained as routine incompetence."
It's clever. And funny. Thank you for a good laugh, Curmudgeon.

Palo Alto City management is so bloated with so many employees, yet still can't negotiate with their own people in less than 7 years. The PA management needs to be replaced whole sale.

It's good to see CPA Utilities frequently using outside contractors to do any significant work. The local municipal vs. national union process with CPA utilities (and other city functions) seems broken - most obviously evidenced by the enormous and increasing public pension liabilities.
It's good to see one city department negotiating strenuously against these national unions. I love the part about the city being required to provide "documents" to support that there would be yet another recession at some future date.

Competence. Now there's a quality so highly admired in the public sector and government! I imagine all public sector and government employees feel the same way. I earned it. I deserve it. Sure.

Interesting to see comments from participants like "Member" from Barron Park who assumes that the UMPAPA group is part of a national union. It is not. On the other hand, it is refreshing to see some writers support a small Union trying to protect the rights of its members. Not everyone is anti-Union in Palo Alto.

I would need to witness these 'negotiations' to know for sure, but I would not be surprised if the unexpected curve balls the city is throwing at the Union negotiators is little more than the city tipping its hat that they really have no idea how to negotiate.

It's the Palo Alto Administrator bundle: When someone asks for something different than was offered, a muscle memory instinct takes over to stall because their offered solution has been rejected AND the incompetence factor.
The schools are infected with it too.

Timing often creates unfortunate coincidences. This week we read in the paper that Palo Alto is scolded for negotiating in bad faith. And last week a colorful notice announcing all the rate increases was included in our utility bill. Not a great optic.
a resident of Barron Park
on Aug 7, 2018 at 7:08 pm
I for one see a lot of value in having our own utilities. I would never want to be in PG&E territory and my contractors tell me the same. Living in Silicon Valley and even CA, it's just the price you have to pay. You can't expect our economy to boom while leaving behind everyone else that doesn't work in the tech industry. It's not just city employees. I'm sure we are paying more for all services. If you can't handle it, move to Nevada, Texas, or Florida. I've seen the wages posted in the daily, but how else are you going to get people to come to bay area to work? I don't want the City picking up workers from Home Depot to work on our water or electrical system.

"Unions for public sector = no bueno"
Gov. Ronald Reagan signed that in to law a long time ago.
Just yesterday, American voters crushed an anti-union measure by a 2-1 margin: "Unions notch win in deep-red Missouri with rejection of right-to-work law" Web Link
Americans like workers having representation.
Who doesn't like worker protections? conservative politicians and their appointed judges, and , of course, anonymous online posters.

As an engineer who has worked for both PG&E (private industry) and Palo Alto Utilities, I can tell you from firsthand experience that employees for both agencies (engineers, lineman, dispatchers, estimators and others) work equally hard and are dedicated to serving their customers. The notion that government utility workers are less capable and/or don't care is a tired old cliché.
The value of a city-owned utility is lower rates (no shareholder rate-of-return) and local control. The utility revenues are invested back into the local community.
If you value the lower cost, high reliability and local control of your City-owned utility, check out umpapa.org
Please be aware that investor-owned utilities also provide pensions and health care benefits. If Palo Alto is not willing to pay a competitive salary and continue providing pensions and health benefits, PG&E, Southern California Edison, City of Santa Clara etc. will be more than happy to hire them away. And have done so.

RHODE ISLAND -- With the college football landscape changing a bit recently and with the prospect of more changes coming in the near future, Big East commissioner John Marinatto talked about the hot issue during today's media day.
"We as a conference continue to monitor the landscape while focusing our time on positioning ourselves. Strategically position the conference for optimum growth in the future. Most importantly stay true to our values. The main key to long-term success and stability is maintaining a proper balance. The Big East conference is stronger today than at any point in our history. This morning I similarly asked our head coaches to refrain from speculating on these matters, and instead focus on their teams and the upcoming football season. Everything is on the table. We have been in this process since March when Paul (Tagliabue) came on board and we decided that we wanted to look at it and study everything. And historically, as you know, we like to do things quietly behind the scenes. Everything is on the table, publicly. We don't talk about it., but we are talking about everything from expansion to our own television network, to things that we need to do internally. Everything is on the table for us. Next main issue is capitalizing on our television contract."
The Big East was spared from the lastest round of conference realignment. The Big Ten added Nebraska, and the Pac-10 added Colorado and Utah. Boise State jumped to the Mountain West. The Big 12 was on the brink of extinction with talk of Texas, Oklahoma and others ready to jump to the Pac-10. But Texas decided to stay, saving the conference -- for now at least. The Big 12 plans to move for the 2011 season with 10 teams, minus Nebraska and Colorado.
But it's possible when the Big Ten expands again -- and it appears the conference will -- that it may target a team from the Big East, whether it's Rutgers, Syracuse or Pittsburgh, or a even combination of those teams. A potentially big factor is Notre Dame. Notre Dame remains independent in football, but plays its other sports in the Big East. If Notre Dame were to join the Big Ten in all sports, would that be the crack that crumbles the Big East?
The Big Ten held its media day yesterday in Chicago and announced it would hold a championship game next season. With the addition of Nebraska next season, the conference has 12 teams.
Marinatto on what it was like for college sports as the conference realignment was shaking out:
"All of us in the 10-day period in June, we all got extraordinarily weak when we were looking at Orangbloods.com every morning and continuously following what was going on because it seemed like they knew everything. That was the same week as the meetings that were taking place in California, and five of the six qualifying conference commissioners felt that they couldn't go to those meetings because it was such an extraordinary (situation). When we all, when those 10 days were over, we all breathed a sigh of relief, happy with the way that it ended and most of us didn't want to have that kind of a change, we didn't think it was healthy for collegiate athletics as a group moving forward. So all of us in collegiate athletics that week kept in touch, maintained contact and were planning accordingly. It certainly was an interesting time in the road of college sports.
"Because of that extraordinary week, all of us were making contingency plans for what might happen if indeed those scenarios played out. And Texas making the decision to stay with the Big 12 allowed us to put aside those contingency plans, and move forward with what we were doing with Paul (Tagliabue), but all of us, all of the conferences in the event that the whole Texas move to the Pac 10 happened, had plans in place as to what we were doing and planning that way."

Sergeant York and the Great War
This book details the early days of Alvin York, a backwoods Tennessean who lived in obscurity until he was drafted and trained to fight for the United States overseas during what was called The Great War – what we know as World War I. Sergeant York kept a war diary that was published in 1928 by Mr. Tom Skeyhill.
This is a unique reproduction of Sergeant York's war diary. Added to the events of the war diary are pictures and general information about World War I which allow the reader to experience, perhaps for a moment, the feeling of what it was like to walk alongside Alvin York in the early 1900s.
There was a time that Sergeant Alvin C. York was a household name in America. Perhaps many of you recognize the name from the motion picture of Sergeant York played by Gary Cooper. Needless to say, the movie won Cooper his first Oscar and gave Sergeant York even more notoriety, helping to retain his status as a true American hero.
About the Author
Tom Skeyhill (Thomas John Skeyhill, 1895-1932) was a soldier himself, who served in the 8th Battalion of the Australian Imperial Force during World War I. After a year of active service in the war, he was rendered blind by an explosion in 1915 and returned to Australia. He had been actively writing and some of his work had been published in the papers of London and Melbourne. His first work, Soldier Songs from Anzac (poetry) was published shortly after the close of The Great War and sold 20,000 copies in a mere four months.
Skeyhill then toured Australia, known as "the blind soldier poet", and raised funds on his speaking tours for the Red Cross. He then commenced a tour of lectures in North America and was called by Theodore Roosevelt 'the finest soldier speaker in the world'. He went on to write other articles for magazines and books about wartime experiences, among which Sergeant York and the Great War became the best known.

Know this one great truth: you are in control of your own life. You get one and only one chance to live, and life is passing you by. Stop beating yourself up, and dang it, stop letting others do it too. Stop accepting less than you deserve. Stop buying things you can't afford to impress people you don't even really like. Stop eating your feelings instead of working through them. Stop abusing your body and your mind. Stop! Just get off the never-ending track.

During a national crisis, many Americans look to the White House for guidance and reassurance on how to act and carry on.
But during the COVID-19 pandemic, they may look to the White House for a different reason: as a cautionary tale for how the new coronavirus can take hold in absence of proper precautions.
Last week, two White House staffers tested positive for the virus. They were Vice President Mike Pence's press secretary Katie Miller and one of President Donald Trump's valets.
This has prompted several key officials and members of the administration's COVID-19 task force to self-quarantine, including the heads of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as well as Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
"SARs-CoV-2 is able to move person to person. Therefore, close contact and daily interactions may promote spreading of the infection," said Dr. Andres Romero, an infectious disease specialist at Providence Saint John's Health Center in Santa Monica, California.
"Face masks and physical distancing are the strongest strategies we currently have at hand to control the virus spread," he said.
The CDC recommendedTrusted Source the use of cloth masks "in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain" — such as the cramped quarters of the West Wing — more than a month ago.
The White House now says it will be asking all employees to wear cloth masks while in the building, except for at their desks. However, President Trump won't be wearing a mask.
As many states and cities in the nation gear up to reopen restaurants and workplaces, understanding how and why workplace transmission of the virus occurs — and putting policies in place to protect workers — becomes more critical than ever.
One of the key lessons the White House's response can teach us is the limitations of testing as a way to control COVID-19 spread, according to Susan Hassig, DrPH, MPH, an epidemiologist and director of the master's in public health program at the Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine in Louisiana.
"While testing is a useful tool, it is not a replacement for barrier protection against the virus," she told Healthline. "Testing is fine, but we know that people can shed the virus before it is detectable. And so proximity and density are still important. The bottom line is that even with frequent testing, you are not going to catch everything, [because] the test can have false negatives."
And there has been, up until now, a conspicuous lack of barrier protection, such as face masks as well as proper physical distancing measures, even among health professionals during Trump's briefings on the virus.
"It's confusing to us as healthcare people to watch these press conferences and none of these people are wearing masks," said Dr. Eric Mizuno, an internist on staff at Weiss Memorial Hospital and medical director at The Admiral at the Lake nursing home in Chicago.
The Trump administration hasn't said if any other staff members have contracted the virus or what the total number of infections might be.
But experts say that given the lack of protection and the high likelihood of false negatives in testing, it's almost certainly higher than reported.
"We know that it's highly contagious even before you become symptomatic for a few days. So, if you do the math, there are a significant number of likely asymptomatic people in the White House now," Mizuno told Healthline.

Popularity and Convenience!
Silicone has been making a rise in the Cannabis Industry lately and for plenty of reasons that we will be going over here. While most are good things, we're also The Honest Headshop so we will also be going over the bad things about Silicone that we've personally experienced and inform you so that and you can make your choice! Silicone's convenience is un-matched by the basic glass beaker or straight tubes when it comes to mobility and durability but other factors like Environmental Impact and a short lifespan may have you veer away from this Silicon and Oxygen mashup of a Material as we dive into some Silicone knowledge, skip to the bottom if you just want the summary!
What is Silicone and Why Can You Smoke Out of it?
A process of combining Silicon and Oxygen together is what creates the material that is Silicone. Silicon is actually the highest abundant Element on Earth next to Oxygen, so it's kind of funny that some of us now smoke out of a device that's made straight from our planet! Combine that with the Durability of Silicone and you have yourself a real competitor to Borosilicate Glass! However, this is only true if you know that the bong, pipe or container that you are using is made of pure Silicone and is not tainted with filler materials that can be harmful to your health and environment over time. Believe it or not, Borosilicate Glass and Silicone both come from the element Silica!
The melting point of Silicone is very high, about 500 degrees Fahrenheit, and your average lighter can get up to 3,000 degrees and cause your Silicone to either melt or can off-gas harmful gases if you hold the flame to it for extended periods of time, which is why the risk goes up when smoking out of a Silicone hand pipe especially with the smoldering center of your bowl that can reach up to 900 degrees! We really suggest that you purchase your silicone with all of these factors in mind and try and steer away from pipes that have close contact with your flame to where you're smoking from.
The biggest advantage of Silicone is it's durability and the fact that you can drop it from the tallest building in the world and it will be ready to smoke a bowl out of! Just make sure not to have any of the glass attachments in it before testing it's durability and do not throw it off of building, it was just an example! Aside from being able to be dropped, Silicone is also very malleable and able to bend and fit into very tight spots. The biggest downfall of it's durability is that you really can't keep it clean for nearly as long as you can keep glass clean for which bring us to our next subject.
Longevity is one of the only factors that are working against all Silicone if we have to be honest and it my only affect a few users. The smell that can develop from using your Silicone Bong or Hand Pipe over time can be very un-pleasant and something that all of us at the shop have experienced with Silicone. The process of cleaning your silicone regularly will also eventually cause the Silicone to break down, since it is made from mostly naturally elements and after you throw Silicone away there's no telling of what becomes of it, which brings us to our next subject.
Environmental Impact
There's definitely an Environmental Impact that Borosilicate Glass has too but American Glass companies have many regulations to follow and take all of the precaution needed to have the absolute minimum amount of pollution possible, there tools to monitor the production of toxins and glass will also eventually break down to dust/sand after disposed of. On the other hand, Silicone is made by numerous companies overseas that do not have the regulations that we have over here in the U.S.A. There are only a small hand full of Silicone bong manufacturers in America and the overwhelming bulk are made in China. Now speaking to the after affect Silicone has boro beat. Since it can be recycled once its used it will have less of an impact on our planet. Borosilicate glass however cannot be recycled
Quick Summary
With all of that information to digest, there are some really strong factors that play into Silicone's success in the industry. Cost and durability are the biggest factors but only offer short term convenience. There are real risk factors when it comes to flame and silicone use that should always be kept in mind while using silicone. With Glass, as long as you stay on top of it's cleaning and have a nice strong American piece of Glass you will have it for life as long as you don't break it, and you're always some Alcohol and Salt away from getting it sparkly clean again!

Programs for first-time homebuyers in Los Angeles
Having problems coming with a advance payment?
The l. A. Housing marketplace is certainly not a hospitable one for first-time purchasers.
Just 25 % of most Los Angeles residents are able a median-priced house, according the Ca Association of Realtors. It could be also harder for first-time purchasers, who don't have actually a house they could offer to pay for the expense of a payment that is down.
However some programs during the regional, state, and federal level can assist buyers purchase their first homes—and a lot of them offer borrowers with help to make those high priced down payments.
Residence shoppers are likely currently conscious of resources just like the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's FHA loans system, or perhaps the VA loans offered to U.S. Solution users and veterans.
But those aren't the only choices. Listed here are six options accessible to buyers within the Los Angeles area.
These programs, buyers must also obtain loans from private lenders, so credit limits or other financial restrictions will likely come into play to take advantage. Nonetheless it's worth investigating these choices if homeownership appears just away from reach.
California's mortgage that is first
The Ca Housing Finance Agency's first-time home loan system is accessible to most first-time purchasers in Ca whom meet with the income limitations where they reside. In l. A. County, borrowers must make under $144,700 to qualify.
Through the CalPlus and MyHome programs, which can be paired, purchasers whom receive conventional mortgage loans from qualified personal loan providers can then get smaller loans through the state agency. They are offered to cover closing costs or more to 3.5 % of a home's price in advance payment assistance.
The smaller loans aren't factored into month-to-month mortgage repayments; rather, buyers repay them in a lump sum payment whenever attempting to sell or refinancing their home—or right after paying off the mortgage that is entire.
The maximum cost for properties bought utilizing these loans is $765,000.
L. A. County's home mortgage program that is first
This system is significantly just like those made available from the state's Housing Finance Agency for the reason that borrowers will get monetary help that goes toward the expense of an advance payment and closing expenses.
It's available to buyers in included and unincorporated LA County with one major exception: the complete city of Los Angeles. That's bound frustrate many buyers that are prospective but there are numerous nice areas to explore outside of the city limits.
Things to learn about condos
Many loan programs for first-time purchasers may be used whenever condos that are purchsinceing as well as single-family homes. But devices in structures that haven't been authorized because of the Federal Housing management are usually off-limits.
Which means you might want to do much more research when wanting to make use of these loan programs to get a condo. Make use of this database to check on whether a complex has FHA approval.
To be eligible for this system, individuals must make under $125,280 for a single, two, or three-person household. Acquisitions may also be capped at $653,883, except in targeted places where at the very least 70 per cent of residents are believed earners that are low-income statewide requirements. During these certain areas, purchasers will pay up to $799,190
The first-time buyer requirement can be lifted in targeted areas, and thus property owners in those regions could simply take advantageous asset of this program to trade up for a bigger or higher property that is amenity-rich.
System individuals make use of participating lenders to get mortgage, which is sold with a grant which can be used for advance payment and closing expenses. The grant, which purchasers do not need to pay off, may be as much as 4 per cent for the value that is total of loan.
L. A. County homeownership system
This system additionally provides economic support for down payment and closing expenses, nevertheless the money happens of a pool of grant funding through the authorities. Meaning there's a limit to just how people that are many be involved in this program. The county is accepting simply 20 applications between now and March 2020.
Individuals, whom must make under $66,800 each year ( for the household that is two-person, can acquire loans as much as $75,000 through this system. Interest is not charged on those loans and additionally they don't need to be paid back until following the customer offers the house or takes care of the home loan.
This system additionally excludes the town of l. A., although some other big towns, such as for example Culver City, western Hollywood, and Hermosa Beach are included. A listing of places where participating homebuyers should focus their queries are obtainable right here.

City of Los Angeles homebuyer support
The city of l. A. Has two extremely programs that are similar first-time purchasers. A person is for low-income purchasers making under $66,800 each year ( for a two-person home). One other is actually for moderate-income buyers making $62,001 to $130,800 (also for a two-person household).
The program that is low-income loans as much as $90,000 which you can use to protect advance payment and closing costs. The low-income loans can only be utilized on purchases as much as $745,750 for single-family houses and $513,000 for condos.
Into the moderate-income system, purchasers can borrow as much as $35,000 or $60,000, based on just how much they make. There is not a maximum price for the income program that is moderate.
The loans don't have actually become paid down until buyers sell payday loans Utah the house or spend down the home loan, of which time the town may also gather a share for the home's appreciated value, which differs with respect to the measurements of the mortgage (if the loan amounts to ten percent of this price, you'll have to pay for straight back ten percent for the home's appreciated value).
The bad news is loans are just on offer now to low-income purchasers, given that moderate income system may be out of funds.
Inglewood homebuyer help
The town of Inglewood's lottery for first-time homebuyers closed in April. But look out: the town is anticipated to announce a brand new system the following year.

Macroalgal Bioindicators of Recovery from Eutrophication in a Tidal Lagoon Following Wastewater Diversion and Earthquake Disturbance
Estuaries and Coasts ( IF 2.319 ) Pub Date : 2019-12-20 , DOI: 10.1007/s12237-019-00654-7 Neill Barr; John Zeldis; Kristin Scheuer; David Schiel
Estuaries and Coasts ( IF 2.319 ) Pub Date : 2019-12-20 , DOI: 10.1007/s12237-019-00654-7 Neill Barr; John Zeldis; Kristin Scheuer; David Schiel
Together, macroalgal tissue biochemical nitrogen indices (N-indices) and macroalgal abundance can be used as bioindicators of N-enrichment in estuaries. In this study, we examine the extent and rates of response of Ulva bioindicators during rapid N-enrichment perturbations in the eutrophic Avon-Heathcote Estuary (AHE) (Christchurch, New Zealand). With the diversion of the city's wastewater discharge away from the estuary in March 2010, a ~ 90% reduction in the estuary's N-concentration was expected. In turn, this was expected to reduce macroalgal biomass and improve the overall trophic condition of the estuary. We surveyed Ulva bioindicators over a five-year period spanning the diversion. There was a rapid (within one year) transition away from eutrophic condition reflected in N-indices (tissue-chlorophyll, -free amino acids, -N and -δ15N) following wastewater diversion, towards values corresponding with 'cleaner' water quality. This was accompanied by large reductions in Ulva percent cover, based on seasonal surveys conducted from 2001 to 2014. However, two large earthquakes in February and June 2011 caused a breakdown of the city's wastewater infrastructure, resulting in overflows of untreated sewage into the estuary between February and November 2011. The re-enrichment of N and changes in N-sources (treated versus untreated sewage) were rapidly reflected in Ulva bioindicators, notably δ15N. Following repair of infrastructure, Ulva bioindicators again reverted towards a less eutrophic state. Overall, bioindicators were sensitive to changes in N-availability and N-source, and useful for identifying the position of algal populations on a eutrophic-to-oligotrophic gradient. These attributes demonstrated their utility as adjuncts to water quality monitoring and algal biomass surveys.更新日期:2019-12-20

Is it special enough?
Only you know the answer to that.
Let's say you have your set macros, or even if you are counting calories, you have your set number of calories. That is your budget for the day. That is what you get to spend on food today, on eating today. But then someone invites you over for lunch or supper, or if you call it dinner, call it dinner. This person is making an over-the-top meal. It's a meal you really love. Now here's the rub. Do you eat it? Is it a special occasion or just an occasion. Is it special enough?
See the thing here is, you are the one who decides if something is special enough. This is your transformation journey. This is your lifestyle journey. So what makes something special enough? Ask yourself.
Is it your birthday? A holiday? Sure, these days are special. Is it your grandma's chocolate cake or is it iHop pancakes? You decide the specialness and you decide if you are going to go off plan for it. Most of the time you can work something in to your day.
Is your special really special enough though? That is where you have to do a little digging. Because honestly, we could say every weekend something we encounter is special. What happens then? What happens when you over eat every single weekend, because you deem something special?
I think it's kind of a fine line. You could make the argument even every single day is special. But, you signed up for a lifestyle change. You signed up for a transformation. You signed up because something, probably specialness, got you where you are in the first place.
Let's say that this over-the-top meal meets your specialness criteria, do you just go all out and eat as much as your can? No, you don't. You eat within reason. This is what you have learned from your journey. You don't eat all the food. You eat some of the food. You keep yourself in check. You don't eat like an asshole.
To me, I don't consider very many days special enough. This year Thanksgiving was. I didn't track, but I by no means went overboard. My birthday, I worked in angel food cake. I stay pretty balanced for all days. Once you get that mindset going of realizing you can eat anything, just not as much of it as you used to, it makes things way, way easier. Then, once you start seeing results it is so motivating, you just want to keep going.
I encourage you to keep going. Decide what is special for you, just don't make it every weekend. Don't use it as an excuse to overeat. Sometimes we do things like that. When you find yourself in the specialness situation, ask yourself if it's special enough.

You need to research what you need, and then figure out what you need to do to help it grow properly. These tips below can help you with that. If you have small children, think about planting everbearing strawberries in your garden, especially. Kids are quite eager to pick fruit from a garden, and will help with the planting if they get a nice snack out of it at the end. You can gain time by renewing your beds with this method: slice under the turf and turn it over. Cover it with wood chips and wait a few weeks. You can then use this bed to plant your perennial plants. The ground you have turned over should be made richer by the turf that is under it. When mulching your flower beds, aim for anywhere between two or three inches of mulch. This will prevent weeds from growing, retain humidity, and feed your plants with the nutrients they need. This also gives your flower beds a more aesthetic aspect. Embrace earthworms in the organic garden! Earthworms are an organic gardener's best friend. Through tunneling and their nitrogen-rich castings, they can help to aerate the soil. This improves the amount of oxygen that gets to a plant's roots, improves water retention capacity, and keeps the soil workable and loose. They actually raise much-needed minerals from the garden's subsoil to the topsoil, where plants can get the greatest benefit. These worms also break up hardpan soil, which is detrimental to root growth. Your compost pile should contain green plant materials and dry plant materials. Green plant material can include old flowers, fruit waste, grass clippings, vegetable waste, and leaves. Dried plant material consists of sawdust, shredded paper,cardboard and straw, and cut-up and dried wood material. Never use charcoal, meat and ashes diseased plants or carnivorous animal manure in your compost pile. Sometimes when you are growing vegetables or fruits, it can be helpful to cut off newly formed buds or other non-fruit bearing areas. This will stimulate the growth of heavier fruit because the plant re-routes nutrients to where its growth should be navigating. When taking care your garden, it's important to make the distinction between harvesting the plant, or encouraging its growth. Toads can be a gardener's best friend because of all the troublesome bugs they eat. To attract toads to come visit your garden and stay awhile, keep the garden bedding moist and offer some places where they can safely hide from predators of their own. A useful trick many gardeners use is to place old, broken clay flower pots upside down in the garden to function as a comfy shelter for the hard-working toads. Organic fertilizers are better for the soil than chemical fertilizers. The soil will absorb the organic fertilizer of its essential nutrients and natural substances which will foster growth in plants. This is ideal because you are not adding unwanted chemicals to the soil that might harm plants long-term. The key to successful organic gardening is building healthy soil so that plants will thrive today and for future seasons. Planting a living hedge around your property has many benefits. Hedges provide a softer barrier to mark the perimeter of your property and are less forbidding than a structured wall. A living hedge will provide privacy but still discourage trespassing by animals or people. If you have a hedge that blooms, it can be a lovely backdrop in addition to your landscape. Many horse farms will give you their horse manure for free if you ask. Some will even transport it to your door for a small fee. Horse manure is rich in vitamins and minerals that plants crave. Usually, the manure is blended with wood shavings to reduce the smell. For the serious organic, make sure that the shavings used are also organic. Organic gardening is especially good at this, though gardening of any type can be a great hobby that helps you to feel more at one with the earth. This kind of gardening shows you the entire progression of planting from beginning to end. For indoor organic gardening, temperature control is very important during the early phases. Seventy degrees Fahrenheit is the ideal temperature for most seeds to start growing. You can achieve this temperature relatively easily by installing heaters and placing the seeds near the vents. You can also purchase heat mats to place under your plant containers. Try using ladybugs rather than pesticides to protect your plants from insects. You can order large quantities of ladybugs from gardening supply stores for very little money. If you release them near your garden, they will eat pests such as aphids, leaf mites, hoppers and other soft bodied insects, helping to protect your plants from these unwanted critters in the process. To conserve water and protect your plants, use a soaker hose instead of a sprinkler. A soaker hose is a hose with small holes that lies at the base of your plants and administers water directly to the soil. This deters evaporation and keeps water from touching the foliage, which can cause fungus and disease. One way to improve the output of your organic garden is to prune the non-fruiting branches of your plants. Once the growing season is well underway and you can see where your vegetables and fruits are growing, eliminate stems and branches that are not carrying any fruit. This helps your plants focus their efforts on the fruit-bearing branches. When starting your own organic garden, a great tip is to keep your tools as close to your garden as you possibly can. This will reduce the number of trips you have to make to your shed. Consider wearing a tool belt or carry a large bucket with you when you are out in your garden. Mulch should be your best friend when it comes to organic gardening. You need mulch to protect your plants and soil for when there is runoff after a rain storm or after using an irrigation system. The water runs off the land and it will deplete and erode any unprotected soil. Eliminate the need for excessive intervention in the health and care of your landscaping and gardening plants by choosingshrubs and grasses, and veggies that require a bare minimum maintenance. These plants are often easily identifiable by their smaller taproots and undersized, silvery colored leaves. Plants that work well with their environment require very little in the way of fertilizers and pesticides. Now that you've read these tips on building and maintaining your very own organic garden right in your back yard, why wait! Stop relying on farmers and stores to give you produce that you could be growing on your own property, grown with love and pesticide free!

Dogs are the perfect fitness companion and just owning a fur-baby can improve your health. Studies indicate that dogs can help lower blood pressure and cholesterol; reduce depression, stress, and anxiety; and they motivate you to exercise. I mean, come on! They are like the fitness buddy you always wanted, only way cuter. If you find yourself living on dog days and don't find the motivation to run or workout, then chances are that your heart will melt thanks to the puppy eyes that most dogs perfect over the years. The pair of excited eyes and wagging tail will move even the most stubborn mind.
That being said, your dog probably needs the workout too. Dogs are highly trainable and can be successfully trained with love, positive reinforcement, and consistency from your side. Not all dogs are used to a routine, but it is possible with consistency and a little patience. If you stay consistent then a simple walk in the park with your dog can turn into a full-body training session with just a few exercises. But while you do try out these workouts, always adopt caution. Exercising with your dog is not as easy as it sounds; you still have to take care of certain aspects to have a trouble-free pet time.
What You Need:
- Your dog!
- A Leash
- Throwable dog toy
- Treats
- Water bowl
Things To Keep In Mind:
- If your dog refuses to do an exercise or becomes lethargic then don't force him/her.
- When using food to motivate your dog for the workouts, use the ones from his daily allowance instead of adding more treats. If your dog has a favorite toy, then use that as an alternative.
- If your dog doesn't cooperate then don't stress. Do your best to train your pooch and just have fun with it.
Before diving headfirst into the workout, remember to warm-up. Strap a leash on your dog and take him for a brisk walk. The idea is to increase the temperature of the muscles and to prepare your body for the exercises to come. Improvise by changing your pace, walking on toes, adding a few butt-kicks, changing directions, and by jogging. Use the leash to direct your dog and choose the same route till s/he gets accustomed to the walk and won't get as distracted with all the new scents.
Walking Lunge
Take it up a notch now. Continue with the walking but break into a lunge with every step. Coordinate your movement with your dog's by placing treats when you bend the knee. Repeat for 10 reps.
Front Squat
Let's start with the body weight session now. For the front squat, cradle your dog in your arms and stand up straight with feet at shoulder-width distance. Bend your knees and push your buttocks out to complete one rep. Return back to standing position and do 10 reps. If you have a big dog, then you can train him or her with treats. When you squat down, place a treat so that your dog sits on his hind legs. When you return to standing position, s/he should stand back up.
A yoga mat for this is optional. A little grass in the park hurt nobody. Lie down on your back with knees bent. Position your dog between your legs, so that s/he is facing you and should be sitting on all fours when you are lying down. When you come up, place a treat in your dog's mouth and train her to sit-up on her hind legs when you do so. Perform 10 reps of this exercise.
Toss and Stretch
Get your dog's favorite toy for this. Throw the toy as far as you can. While your dog is away fetching it, bring right heel to the right butt to stretch your quad. Hold the stretch till your dog returns. Repeat the throw and stretch for the other leg. Involve your quad muscles, hamstrings, calves and upper back for this one. Perform 5 reps on each leg.
You can finish off the session by walking home. Give your dog some water if needed and remember to keep yourself hydrated as well.
