Chapter 00 - Into The Breach
Estell did not like ProtoFrames. Though they were better than normal battlesuits, they still did not offer the same performance as an actual frame. Still, she was with the Colonist Cell Militia, and with the resources running at an all time low, beggars can not be choosers. What made matters worst is that she was stuck in this ProtoFrame while in the hover transports cargo bay. The Thunderhawk hover transport was meant to carry troops with battlesuits, and was not meant to carry a machine that was nearly the size of a frame. Estell had to keep her body slightly hunched over so her exposed head did not hit the ceiling. When she received orders to be deployed to a combat zone in the desert regions, she had hoped that the Cell would at least provide adequate transport, but again, they were limited to what was left in their hangers.
She craned her neck to look behind her at her so-called 'partner' for this mission. The boy looked barely old enough to have graduated High School and the color green across his face told Estell that he was concentrating on keeping his last meal from coming back up to say hello. She wanted to speak to him to help calm his nerves, but at the same time, she was afraid that if he opened his mouth, the contents of his stomach would spew all over the harness that kept him in his own ProtoFrame. It was with a bit of a surprise that he spoke first once he realized she was looking at him.
"How much longer to the drop site?"
As though in answer, the transport took a sudden jolt to the side, however, both ProtoFrames and their operators remained steady. Estell checked her chromometer for the umpteenth time.
"Drop in 20 minutes!"
She said. He nodded in acknowledgement and returned to his silent suffering.
Estell hated it. She hated the whole situation. She recalled the briefing and how the higher ups asked for her specifically when the desert supply depot came under attack. The defending Colonists were suffering heavy casualties and had requested aid. Estell and her 'partner' were the only frame pilots nearby that could answer the distress call. Estell cursed again, if only they had actual frames to use instead of the current cast-offs they were given. At least command was considerate enough to give Estell proper time to customize her ProtoFrame with a Combat Cannon, a Comms Relay, and Drop Boosters. Plus she was also able to get it Quick-Sprayed in desert camo. Her 'Partner' on the other hand, did not receive the same luxury. Instead, the command staff practically grabbed him, threw him into the ProtoFrame that is on loan from another Cell and loaded him into the transport before he could form any objections. It was equipped with a Long Range Howitzer (Which in this cramped cargo bay, the end of the muzzle was mere inches away from the right side of her ear) and an Arm Shield that looked like it was about to fall off. But the worst of it, was that his ProtoFrame was still in Artic weather camo paint. White with grey, splashes of light blue and black are not the colors to have while in any desert region. He'll stick out like a bright yellow light in a pitch black room.
"This your first drop?"
She asked.
"First while under fire!"
He had to yell back as the transport began to shake and shutter. The sounds of bullets, lazer blasts, explosions could barely be heard over the roar of the hover pods.
"You always this nervous?"
She called back
"No. Motion sickness."
Estell then had a new form of respect for the guy. Dispite his ailments, he was still willing to continue the combat drop.
"Last minute details!"
Estell then yelled out
"We will have friendlies in the area, so check your targets! Also, once we drop, find some cover and provide long range support!"
"Yes Ma'am!"
"Listen close to this next one! If something happens to me, or I call a 'Mission Abort', What do you do?"
"Get to the extraction point and set off an emergency flare for extraction."
"Correct! Whoever is attacking that depot is determined to get it. We cannot afford to loose what resources we have!"
The sound of a brief explosion rang off. Judging by the volume of the sound, plus the sudden jolt of the transport, it was most likely a near miss. If Estell was not already desensitized to the horrors of combat, she would most likely be wetting her pants. She glanced at her partner and wondered if he was as disciplined.
"Three minutes! Run last systems check!"
Almost automatically, both Estell and her partner ran through the checklist of each of their Protoframes systems. Though lacking a physical heads up display, all of the suits systems were wirelessly transmitted to appear on their visors. Their eyes were filled with data flow that showed them the status of all systems: Weapon loadouts, ammo, fuel supply, armor density and so on. As experienced at they are, it only took the pair a moment to familiarize themselves with the layout.
"One more thing Rookie!"
She called back, just as a red light above the cargo bay door began to flash and the door itself slowly rose up
"I never did get your name!"
"Alton Burtz."
He answered. When the hanger door was finally opened all the way, and she could see explosion clouds popping into view, Estell moved her Protoframe to the opening with Alton shuffling close behind.
"Well Al, Welcome to Hell!"
And she jumped. One full second later, Alton followed.

It was a banner day for the Brits at Olympic Stadium Saturday, as Great Britain athletes claimed gold in heptathlon, men's long jump, and the men's 10,000 meters. It's that 10K gold that has Team GBR so fired up, as the Beeb's announcers are so happy to show you in this clip.
BBC commentators Colin Jackson, Michael Johnson and Denise Lewis had already experienced the thrill of calling championships for Jessica Ennis (the 'face' of the Olympics) and long jumper Greg Rutherford (Britain's first in the event since 1964) so it's safe to say they were a bit wound up. It's also safe to say the "no cheering in the pressbox" rule only exists in the States. [BBC]

Just weeks after the company won construction permission from federal regulators, Cape Wind filed to Massachusetts state regulators a PPA with regional utility National Grid for half the output of its proposed 468MW offshore wind plant, and PPA sale options for the remaining 50%.
Reaching a price agreement with National Grid is considered a big step for the developers. "The fact there hasn't been a public battle over price between the power developer and the utility is a positive sign and there is obvious government support from the federal government and the government of Massachusetts," says Matt Kaplan, an analyst for consultancy Emerging Energy Research.
However, it is conditional on approval from the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities (DPU). With offshore wind considerably more expensive than onshore, the suggested power price for Cape Wind has received a mixed welcome from wind experts.
National Grid has agreed that, starting in 2013, it would buy half the wind project's output at 20.7 cents/kWh for 15 years, with annual inflation adjustments of 3.5% over the 15 years. This would bring it to 34.7 cents/kWh at the end of the contract.
"The price definitely strikes me as high," says Daniel Shreve, director of US research for Make Consulting. "However, the New England area has some of the highest electricity prices in the United States."
As power contract costs between generators and utilities are passed on to local electricity ratepayers, the DPU could decide the cost is too high. Cape Wind's projections show that the project will add $1.59 a month, roughly 2%, for a typical residential customer.
"There could be a scenario," says Shreve, "where state regulators come back and say this is too high, you can't do it. The developer will have to evaluate how they can make it cheaper, possibly through turbine pricing, or reducing project rate-of-return expectations."
Kaplan argues that the price is in line with expectations and offshore costs seen in Europe. "It's within the realm of what we expect an offshore wind project to cost," he says. "The fact National Grid has said this is acceptable to us, we'll buy power from the Cape Wind project, that's a very positive sign."
He adds that evaluating the cost should also take into account that the 20.7 cents/kWh is 12.5 cents/kWh for the raw power, 6.7 cents/kWh for the Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) and 1.5 cents/kWh for a financial hedge that insulates the parties from wide generation fluctuations (see chart, below).
Every utility serving Massachusetts must buy RECs to comply with the state's Renewables Portfolio Standard (RPS), which requires a rising percentage of power to be sourced from renewables. Current RECs in Massachusetts trade around 5 cents/kWh, and Cape Wind's PPA at a higher 6.7 cents/kWh likely reflects the contract starting in 2013, when RECs may be trading higher. As gas plant PPAs do not include RECs, even though they also need to buy them, it would be fairer to only compare the raw power costs.
Kaplan agrees that a base price of 12.5 cents is higher than the wholesale price for power and the retail price the customer is paying, but points out: "The state has the tenth-largest demand for renewables under its RPS of all states with such laws. There are not a whole lot of other options. (So) I would expect there would be some interest from a large number of different folks."
Shreve agrees: "Moving power from offshore wind farms to nearby load centres in coastal Massachusetts could be a more cost-effective means of harnessing large amounts of renewable energy versus some very extensive and extremely expensive grid upgrades and/or grid build-outs over land."
Generally, offshore projects are considered to be 30-50% more expensive than onshore. Cape Wind's cost is in line with prices seen in Europe. Analysis from Windpower Monthly's special report on European offshore wind (September, 2009) shows that the levelled cost of offshore power is EUR0.166/kWh or $0.209/kWh, almost identical to Cape Wind's price.

China calls for new reserve currency
By Jamil Anderlini in Beijing
March 23 2009
China's central bank on Monday proposed replacing the US dollar as the international reserve currency with a new global system controlled by the International Monetary Fund.
In an essay posted on the People's Bank of China's website, Zhou Xiaochuan, the central bank's governor, said the goal would be to create a reserve currency "that is disconnected from individual nations and is able to remain stable in the long run, thus removing the inherent deficiencies caused by using credit-based national currencies".
Analysts said the proposal was an indication of Beijing's fears that actions being taken to save the domestic US economy would have a negative impact on China.
"This is a clear sign that China, as the largest holder of US dollar financial assets, is concerned about the potential inflationary risk of the US Federal Reserve printing money," said Qu Hongbin, chief China economist for HSBC.
Although Mr Zhou did not mention the US dollar, the essay gave a pointed critique of the current dollar-dominated monetary system.
"The outbreak of the [current] crisis and its spillover to the entire world reflected the inherent vulnerabilities and systemic risks in the existing international monetary system," Mr Zhou wrote.
China has little choice but to hold the bulk of its $2,000bn of foreign exchange reserves in US dollars, and this is unlikely to change in the near future.
To replace the current system, Mr Zhou suggested expanding the role of special drawing rights, which were introduced by the IMF in 1969 to support the Bretton Woods fixed exchange rate regime but became less relevant once that collapsed in the 1970s.
Today, the value of SDRs is based on a basket of four currencies – the US dollar, yen, euro and sterling – and they are used largely as a unit of account by the IMF and some other international organisations.
China's proposal would expand the basket of currencies forming the basis of SDR valuation to all major economies and set up a settlement system between SDRs and other currencies so they could be used in international trade and financial transactions.
Countries would entrust a portion of their SDR reserves to the IMF to manage collectively on their behalf and SDRs would gradually replace existing reserve currencies.
Mr Zhou said the proposal would require "extraordinary political vision and courage" and acknowledged a debt to John Maynard Keynes, who made a similar suggestion in the 1940s.

Study's Anti-Grazing Myths Debunked
By J.D. Alexander, NCBA President, and Brice Lee, Public Lands Council President
A recent study published by a journal called Environmental Management has called for the end of grazing on public lands due to climate change. With funding from the Wyss Foundation, a radical environmentalist, foreign-based organization, researchers produced "Adapting to Climate Change on Western Public Lands: Addressing the Ecological Effects of Domestic, Wild, and Feral Ungulates," which proclaims that global warming necessitates the end of livestock grazing—in fact, any grazing—on public lands. The study makes a series of claims and citations, each of which can be countered by credible studies. As elected officers of organizations dedicated to representing cattle producers and public lands ranchers, we feel it is important to dispel some of the many myths put forth in this agenda-driven research study, and focus on the facts regarding the benefits of public lands grazing to the environment, to communities across the West and to the country.
The authors of the study, led by Oregon State University professor emeritus Robert Beschta, claim that livestock grazing is a leading stressor on rangelands already suffering from climate change; that livestock are contributing to greenhouse gases; and that the removal of public lands livestock grazing would have only minimal effects on Western communities. The authors add that greater populations of large predators such as wolves would improve ecosystem health; anything that will put producers out of business, it seems, will do.
Before going any further, let's take a look at who funded this propaganda passed off as research. The founder of the Wyss Foundation, Swiss multi-billionaire Hansjorg Wyss, has donated millions to organizations like Defenders of Wildlife, Greenpeace and Center for American Progress. The foundation had a hand in creating five million acres' worth of national monuments under the Clinton administration. According to RANGE Magazine, the Wyss Foundation has also pushed for federal ownership of private land across the West. If the organization's goal of federal land acquisition and "protection" is better management of Western rangelands, they're in for quite a disappointment. Private lands are consistently better managed than federal lands. The Wyss Foundation has done its part to bring economic suffering to Western rural communities that have relied on public lands resources for generations. Its role in funding this "study" comes as no surprise.
The study claims that for most rural economies and the West in general, "the economic impacts of managing public lands to emphasize environmental amenities would be relatively minor to modestly positive." This line alone portrays ignorance of what it takes for "environmental amenities" to even exist. Range scientists have written volumes on the benefits of grazing and what happens in its absence, including devastating wildfire and a decline in plant growth and wildlife. The study's authors claim that a "minor to modestly positive" effect would be seen if grazing were eliminated from federal lands. The 22,000 public lands ranchers who actually care for and live off of that land would disagree. Public lands supply about 20 percent of the forage in the Western states, where approximately half of the land is federally owned. The Department of the Interior reported this year that in 2011 grazing on Bureau of Land Management lands alone contributed $1.41 billion in economic impact and added 16,954 direct jobs to the economy. The tax base for our rural communities and schools depends on the jobs and commerce created by federal lands grazing. Without it, the historic and heralded American West would be forever transformed. Without grazing, open spaces would be lost. Public land ranchers own nearly 120 million acres private lands that are intermingled, often unfenced, with the 259 million acres of public rangelands where they graze their livestock during part of the year. Losing public lands grazing would render many ranchers incapable of continuing their operations, thereby taking their private base properties out of production and forcing them to sell them for uses more profitable than ranching, such as farming or industrial and residential development.
Even on undeveloped rangelands, the loss of grazing would hurt plant systems, wildlife, air quality and water quality, which impacts non-federal lands as well. Well managed grazing is proven to be linked to wildlife diversity and habitat. Grazing also stimulates plant and root growth, enriches and aerates the soil, and helps seeds germinate and grow. Benefits from grazing are reaped by wildlife, watersheds and the overall environment. On the other hand, un-grazed grass increases the risk of wildfires. One small fire of 3,000 acres is estimated to emit as much carbon dioxide as would driving more than 100,000 cars for one year, according to the Evergreen Institute. This year alone, wildfires have decimated over 7.2 million acres of grasslands and forests, along with homes lying in the path of destruction. Grazing as a means of fuel reduction is one of the only tools the federal land management agencies have at their disposal to reduce the threat of catastrophic wildfires. Meanwhile, the study's authors rely on previously debunked research inaccurately naming livestock as responsible for 18 percent of the nation's manmade greenhouse gas emissions—but, the EPA estimates that number to be closer to three percent.
It's disappointing that in this day and age of advancing range science and continually improving grazing practices, Environmental Management would give this misleading study such a platform. Those of us who know better have an obligation to spread the truth about grazing.

All 50 States Have Gas Prices Over $3
In a sign that gasoline prices may not take a predicted dip, the cost of a gallon of regular has moved above $3 in all 50 states. Even states near refineries and large oil fields no longer can boast they have broken the $3 barrier on the downside. As oil prices pick up, the trend is a sign that the American consumer cannot count on a low cost to fueling their cars to be an economic advantage to their household budgets, at least in the early part of 2014.
Gas prices never fell much below the $4 level in several states. They are still above $3.50 in New York, California and six other states, according to research firm GasBuddy. Among them, these states have 20% of the U.S. population, so the effects of high gas prices are more widespread than a simple count of the 50 states would indicate.
At the other end of the spectrum, where gas prices did drop below $3, now 13 states have moved up to between $3 and $3.10. These include oil-rich states and those near Gulf of Mexico refinery capacity — Texas, Oklahoma, Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi. Also on the list are northern Plains states, with their small populations near shale deposits — South Dakota, Wyoming and Montana. Gas prices are traditionally very low in these states.
The most closely watched barometer for gasoline price direction has always been oil, even if the relationship can be distorted by refinery capacity and efficiency. After a very sharp dip in early 2014, it has taken an equally sharp rise to more than $97 a barrel.
After a relative period of peace in many oil producing nations in the Middle East and sub-Saharan Africa, tensions in several have flared up again. Additionally, very cold weather in the United States and northern Europe has driven demand. Additionally, several agencies, including the International Monetary Fund, believe that global gross domestic product will expand more than previously expected this year. Unless production capacity rises sharply at the same time, oil prices likely will remain at current levels, or rise higher.
Gas prices across all 50 states may well be a trend that is here to stay for the foreseeable future.

Past Exhibitions
Made in Calgary: The 1980s
September 7, 2013 - January 5, 2014
Made in Calgary is a five-part exhibition series that explores the character of Calgary's artistic community from 1960 to 2010. Each exhibition will reflect the contributions of individual artists in the context of the social and cultural factors that influenced their work.
As Calgary soared to economic power in the 1980s, a maverick new energy in the visual arts also arose in the city. "Calgary became truer to itself in the 80s – artists created things moulded in the Calgary spirit," says Jeffrey Spalding, curator of Made in Calgary: The 1980s.
In discovering that spirit, Calgary artists found themselves reevaluating their conceptions of art, and, in many cases, reinventing their entire approach to the creative process.
A survey of just some of the individuals whose work is featured in the exhibition reveals how pervasive was this climate of change and exploration. In ceramics, for instance, important sculptors such as Mary Shannon Will and Gisele Amantea abruptly reversed course, with the former leaving behind the organic tradition that had defined her work for a more geometric approach, while Amantea took a 180 degree turn from representational work and produced pieces that were an onslaught of colour, pattern and stimuli.
Meanwhile, Chris Cran began to embrace what Spalding describes as "zany narratives" – as evidenced by his Self Portrait Watching a Man About to Shoot Himself in the Foot. John Will, the definitive master printmaker, stopped making prints in 1980 to allow himself the freedom to explore other avenues of art making.
Spalding says that one must look at both regional and international developments in the art world in the preceding decades tounderstand the significance of the upheaval that marked the 1980s. In the 60s and 70s, the local art scene followed a steady evolution based on a kind of master-apprentice model with key instructors in the city imparting their vision to the next generation.
Meanwhile, a more rigid hierarchy was at play on the international stage with leaders of the modernist-reductivist school setting the criteria for what art should be – formal, austere and minimalist.
By the late 70s, though, artists began to question, and actively reject, the paradigms governing what was considered high art and began defining criteria for themselves. "People start to embrace all kinds of different ideas about art that have seemingly nothing to do with what the main storyline is and they just break with it," says Spalding. "It's not a small jailbreak … it's massive."
The results, whether in ceramics, painting, sculpture and so on, were adventurous, expressive and singularly Calgarian. "Calgary went from being a place that was very peripheral to a place that said 'we might as well be leaders – we might as well do something new,'" says Spalding.

The 2009 cult movie Eyeborgs has many things to recommend it, including a totally subtle allegory about what happens when the War on Terror goes Too Far and we get mobile surveillance cameras — basically, webcams with legs — running around everywhere. But the main thing the movie has going for it is this great moment with D-Man, played by cult movie MVP Danny "Machete" Trejo.
My favorite part is the dialogue that Trejo spouts before he is slaughtered by the webcams' meaner older brother. Including the phrases "silicon psychos" and "digital dingos." Classic!

Statistics Minister Maurice Williamson says it's now just one month until the Census takes place.
"The 2013 Census is likely to be the largest activity undertaken by any government department this year as we seek to count every person in New Zealand on Tuesday, March 5th."
The 2011 Census was postponed due to the Canterbury earthquakes.
"Statistics New Zealand is expecting over two million census forms to be completed online, with internet access codes being delivered alongside paper forms," Mr Williamson says.
In total, more than 7000 census collectors will visit 1.8 million homes and deliver 6.4 million census forms (individual and dwelling). Census collectors will visit every dwelling in New Zealand, including cruise ships, prisons, hospitals and apartments.
"It's a huge undertaking, but one that gives the information needed by Government and other agencies to plan for the future.
"For Canterbury, the 2013 Census means the region will have important information about how the region has changed. We will publish information broken down to suburban level, which will enable planners to look at how the population has shifted," Mr Williamson says.
A team of community liaison advisers is also working to promote the importance of census within Māori, Pacific Island and Ethnic communities. These communities have had significant undercounts in previous censuses.
"Having Māori, Samoan, Tongan, Hindi, and Mandarin speakers to name just a few, means we are getting the census message out far and wide."
Census collectors will start delivering internet access codes and forms from February 16th.

Red Cedar Elementary School is encouraging to dads to take their kids to school on Monday as part of the 2011 Million Father March.
A record 700 cities are expected to participate. Last year, more than 800,000 men in 609 cities across America and around the world took children to school on the first day.
"Education has become a matter of national security," said Phillip Jackson, executive director of The Black Star Project, U.S.A., the event's sponsor.
Research shows that children whose fathers take an active role in their educational lives earn better grades, score higher on tests, enjoy school more and are more likely to graduate from high school and attend college, according to Cynthia J. Wibel, a school social worker at Red Cedar Elementary.
This year, fathers and other men are being asked to volunteer 10 hours of service to their children's school for a total of 10 million hours of service by the end of the school year. Fathers and other men are also being asked to pledge to support their children throughout the year. The pledge calls for and outlines a year-long commitment to children and the schools they attend. The pledge includes activities in school, for the family and in the community.
Sign ups will be available at the school on Monday, Wibel said.

The Apple
The Apple is a powerful indictment of inequality between the sexes and its economic consequences. It explores a family in which the grandfather has left his money to all his grandchildren, but it has been spent on the favoured son, Cyril, the 'apple' of his father's eye, to establish his position in the world. Meanwhile his sister Ann acts as unpaid housekeeper and Helen works as a typist, about which Cyril is duly superior. When Helen is subjected to sexual advances at work from her father's friend Nigel Dean, Helen determines to use her share of the money to go to Canada to make a better life. But Cyril has already made his claim for the money to buy the partnership which will allow him to marry. Where many of the AFL plays are propaganda pieces which use a comic mode to defeat anti-suffragist arguments, The Apple addresses larger grievances of women's lives frustrated by lack of economic independence, the narrow options open to women in the workforce and the issue of sexual harassment. In its account of economic drudgery it has similarities to the work of Elizabeth Baker or Cicely Hamilton. It powerfully, and still unusually for its time, creates a heroine in Helen who gives unapologetic voice to her anger at the limitations imposed on her. The author juxtaposes her with her downtrodden, self-sacrificing sister, Ann, whose only access to money, is by pawning her possessions. It remains moving and resonant in its account of the frustration and oppressiveness of family structures in which Helen demands "a glimpse of life, a taste of the joy of living, a few pence in my pocket, my rights as an individual" but remains entrapped within a scenario, dictated by her boss, which alone seems to offer any chance of these. Inez Bensusan wrote three other plays, all unpublished: the duologue, Perfect Ladies (1909, now lost), Nobody's Sweetheart, 1911 (produced at the Little Theatre) and The Prodigal Passes, 1914 (Cosmopolis).

2001 Annual Meeting
the website!
As a result
of these efforts in His name, over 1,300 people came to know
Christ as their personal Savior. 336 received Christ through
the Block Parties, 37 through door-to-door contacts, 694 came
to a saving knowledge of our Lord through the ICE teams four-day,
inner city effort, 186 were reached through personal contacts
with individual messengers, and 95 accepted Christ through
the Evangelism Response Center phone contacts.
Jesus for a plentiful harvest of 1,348 souls for the Kingdom!
In addition to this, 175 prospects were discovered for the
local churches. Our sincere thanks to all who prayed, shared
Christ, and encouraged those who were on the front lines.
2000 Annual Meeting
the website!
In the
year 2000, the Cooperative Program marks its 75th Anniversary,
and a national emphasis is underway to celebrate this historic
event. Partners in the Harvest is, first of all, a celebration,
recognizing the Cooperative Program's history and accomplishments,
and the men and women who have taken the message of salvation
to a lost world.
But perhaps
more importantly, Partners in the Harvest casts a new vision
for Southern Baptist missions. As we enter the 21st century,
the need for missions has never been more acute, the opportunity
never greater. With all of our evangelistic emphasis, there
are still millions who have never heard the name of Jesus.
To help meet this critical need, we have launched what could
be the greatest missions effort in Southern Baptist history:
Partners in the Harvest. We need your help, your prayers,
your financial support, but most of all, we need your commitment
to lead your church in this important endeavor.
1999 Annual Meeting
the website!
Baptists began intensified efforts to strengthen their unified
muscle -- the Cooperative Program -- and to use it in an invigorated
way to reach people who have not heard the gospel not only
abroad but also in the nation's mega-cities, as they met June
15-16 in Atlanta.
Also of
significant interest to Baptists at this year's annual meeting
-- the 142nd in the SBC's 154-year history -- is the OK given
by messengers to a study of the convention's statement of
beliefs, the Baptist Faith and Message, a 1963 document expanded
last year with an article on the family.

The Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine
A worldwide organization of medical doctors dedicated to the promotion, protection, and support of breastfeeding
For over 20 years, ABM has been bringing doctors together to provide evidence-based solutions to the challenges facing breastfeeding across the globe. A vast body of research has demonstrated significant nutritional, physiological, and psychological benefits for both mothers and children that last well beyond infancy. But while breastfeeding is the foundation of a lifetime of health and wellbeing, clinical practice lags behind scientific evidence.
Since its founding in 1993, ABM has been building a global community of medical doctors with diverse backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and specialties. Through its worldwide membership, peer-reviewed journal, Fellowship in Breastfeeding Medicine, Annual International Meeting, and partnerships with other organizations, ABM has created a network of experts and advocates to drive medicine forward in this crucial area.
By building on our legacy of research into this field and sharing it with the broader medical community, we can overcome barriers, influence health policies, and change behaviors.
Join Today
Professional education and the most current research and practice are at the foundation of everything we do. Because when HCPs have easy access to reliable, evidence-based information, they can better advise new mothers and create an environment that encourages breastfeeding. ABM's legacy is built on a foundation of scientific rigor and the spread of knowledge.
Donate Now
The clearest path to broader global support for breastfeeding is through clinical evidence. By pursuing a deeper understanding of the science behind breastfeeding, we can use data to demonstrate the benefits for mother and child alike—benefits that last well beyond infancy. ABM is also dedicated to overcoming the political, economic, and cultural barriers that many women face.

Title text: Wait, this is space -- how are you talking to me? And, as an afterthought, what's up with the hole in reality?
Megan is very unsure about what to think of her situation. Is it a dream? Is she in danger? In the title text she realizes that if she were in real space she wouldn't be able to hear any sound, like the voice talking to her, due to the lack of atmosphere.

NYC buyer be warned....
NYC buyer be warned....
Unfortunately, that's the way product based business have to handle that due to state regulations, not their own policies. That's the way it is here in CA. For example, when mobile phone retailers sell an iPhone at a discounted rate we still pay the sales tax for the full cost of the phone.
The tax agencies expect to get their full cut of the goods. When a manufacturer creates a product they don't pay sales tax on any of the components used to create that product- the tax for each of those components gets passed on to the consumer in the final form as sales tax through the resale (and repackaging) of those components as a single product. Cutting the potential gains from the taxes for each of those components is not something the tax agencies like to do.
There's more to it but there's probably a tax expert on here somewhere who can add to this but I believe it's not a Tesla policy but a state policy.
In NJ we are exempt from paying sales tax on our Tesla.
mvitarelli@high...You wrote this as though you think Tesla is pocketing the money. It isn't Tesla that is charging the full amount, it is NY State. I live in NY and I am not happy that I will be spending thousands more than others for the same car just because of my address. But thats the way it is.
(Oh and way to rub it in, Abby :)
Sounds like it is time to talk to the politicians on NYC.
Heck the money you made from the sale/trade in of your old car might be considered income! lol
@mvitarelli- Yes. I am simply giving you an example of why your problem exists. Sales tax is sales tax no matter on a phone or vehicle and it's up to your state's tax agencies to dictate the policies, not because you don't want Tesla to charge you. I don't like the taxes in CA, sales tax is 9.75%, so I can understand the frustration. Good luck and I hope you're able to get the car.
@Big Tex: Great explanation.
@mvitarelli: This is ridiculous that you would cancel the reservation based on a state tax law - not a policy that Tesla made but is forced to abide with to sell in that state.
@mvitarelli: What was your res Number?
One of the reasons I really hate 'blue' states. 'Progressives' (lefty hypocrites) say they care about the planet and pretend they support EVs yet they do not put their money where their mouth is and do not give you you something as simple as a sales tax exemption as incentive. I am from New York and I remember getting a cash rebate from the state to trade in my crappy old AC for a new energystar one. That policy was created and passed under Republican Governor Pataki with a Republican run State Senate - even back then NYSERDA was funding the wind power resources survey and providing exemptions and incentives for recycling businesses and alternate power projects. Now the Senate and Governors Office fell to the Democrats, they love making big deals about nonsense social issues but could can not give a hoot about encouraging people to do the right thing with their own hard earned money!
Reminds me of that stupid two faced crap in Washington State where the Democratic controlled state government gives incentives for EVs from 2007 and then slaps a punishing tax on EV drivers this year, commieland Oregon wants to follow suit.
Bloomberg is supposedly a progressive business person, he could pass a NYC exemption if he wanted or actually cared about doing the smart or right thing. It disgusts me...
Mvitarelli - you ought to consider following roughly 2 million fellow New Yorkers and migrate to Florida, Sales Tax is only 6% in Broward county and 7% in Miami-Dade county... You probably will not miss paying all that State and NYC income tax either! And do not blame Tesla for obeying the law, blame Bloomberg and Andy Cuomo!
Tesla isn't a car buyer! They're a manufacturer! What the hell is Tesla gonna do with a bunch of rusted old ICEs?
Sell it yourself, or give it to Autonation, but don't blame Tesla for not wanting the junk they've replaced with something better.
I don't see how Tesla can reduce the price of the Model S because of a transaction of which it was not a part! If you sold your car to your brother-in-law, would you expect Tesla to give you credit? Tela has nothing to do with the sale of your car. Would you expect Tesla to tell you about the problems of selling your car to your brother-in-law? Or to your neighbor?
I believe it was a New York judge who once said "the law is stupid." Yeah, but we have to live with it. The law is the problem. Not Tesla.
Tesla should promise to buy any car for scrap value. Even a Ferrari!
FLSports I don't see the tax issue as being left or right. I think it realistically has more to do with governments being disorganized. Having worked in a government job for many years, I have firsthand experience how the left and right hands don't speak. This leads to many situations (such as my current situ.) that don't make sense.
I am going to pay 6.1% import duty, but I get an EV rebate of 8,500.00. Essentially I will end up getting about 2,500.00 back. Why bother on a 100,000+ car. Serious disincentive.
I should point out that in my case, it is our (highly) conservative government who is imposing the 6.1% duty on an electric car. Clearly the taxation issues cross political lines.
The 6.1% is not "imposed"; it is built into general import and duty laws and treaties, especially NAFTA. It would require a (possibly illegal) special exemption to rescind it.
"The 6.1% is not "imposed"; it is built into general import and duty laws and treaties, especially NAFTA. It would require a (possibly illegal) special exemption to rescind it."
Apologies, you are right about my wording. The intent of my comment was to point out that there will be no attempts to create an exception for EVs, despite the government's insistence that it is responsive to environmental concerns. (I have no legal expertise so the validity in making such an attempt is indeed dubious.) Even if there is no way to exempt EVs, the reply I got to my letter to the PM was totally unsympathetic and was majorily composed of a cut and paste response full of conservative platform rhetoric:
"The Government of Canada is committed to protecting the health and
environment of Canadians. We have passed a series of measures to reduce emissions from vehicles and engines addressing both air pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions. The emissions standards in place provide regulatory incentives to the manufacturers and importers of vehicles equipped with plug-in hybrid and all electric technology. As a result of the regulations, it is anticipated that the market penetration of hybrid and electric vehicles will increase."
To paraphrase: "We aren't going to do anything for you since we've already done what we think is necessary to satisfy our environmental commitments with regard to fuel efficient vehicles."
** Regardless of what your political leanings are it's clear that all parties are capable of becoming barriers to EV adoption. **
In case anyone is interested:
(Section labeled "What other goods face special restrictions?")
(55% of the car's materials must be made in Mexico, US or Canada to be avoid importation duties. In addition since the Model S is 4700 lbs (I believe), we may need to pay a weight penalty as well. (Weight must be below 4425 lbs.))
Apologies for going off course with this. I hope that you can get your situation sorted, mvitarelli.
Wow. I'm not even going to address the flaming inaccurate generalizations you have made laying waste to the integrity of what appears to be a large proportion of Americans. You seriously could use a healthy dose of tolerance.
I would hardly call a $100 per year tax on EV's to make up for the loss of road-repair revenue that's collected as part of a gas tax in our state "punishing."
In Washington State, we also don't have sales tax on EV's, which is nice.
Tesla is a new car company. We are early adopters. Early adopters need to have a larger ability to roll with the inevitable glitches that occur early on in any process.
@mvitarelli@high... Come back in 5 years and purchase a Tesla then. More kinks will be ironed out. You'll still have to pay sales tax, though, unless you move to NJ or Washington State!
What's the fuss about? You are responsible for the bill, that is goods plus tax. Then you pay for a part of it with your trade-in. How is it supposed to lower the tax rate?
Obviously they want the nominal value of the goods reduced by the nominal value of the trade-in.
It was a rhetorical question...
@mvitarelli: I am sympathetic towards your situation - I think Tesla could have been a bit more clear on it's ICE trade in policy. I would chalk it up to them being new to mass sales and tax on trade in disclosures should be reviewed for accuracy by state and province by legal staff. If Tesla told you clearly what the trade in tax consequences were, you would not assign the blame on Tesla I think.
New York shafting its EV buyers is a serious problem for market penetration there, but remember Tesla does not profit from it and probably does not like it either - Tesla wants to see as low as possible final prices to encourage wider adoption. The problem is that the politicians in New York do not give a crap about the environment or the people there, they made the taxation and regulatory environment there so unpleasant for both citizens and businesses that millions have left... Voting with their feet because the deadlock and stupidity in Albany make voting ineffective.
Obviously you are not going top move out of state just to buy a car but this one more reason you might consider throwing in the towel and moving to a more friendly state.
@Jewsh: I agree that politicians on both sides can be retarded and hypocritical, left and right are political ideals and not followed by individual human office holders. I mentioned in the other thread that PM Harper is really missing out on a chance to show himself to be a really Progressive Conservative not just in name but in deed and really impress all Canadians with some truly visionary leadership on EVs. But also, even if PM Harper fell in love with Tesla and bought one himself and had the every minister issued one as an official car there is still the issue of the imported batteries - I think Panasonic could do better by its north american customers industrial and consumer and set up a factory here, would help their profit margins as well...
@Epley: For the tiny percentage of cars that EVs make up I really do not think that the loss in fuel tax is that significant... The EV registration surcharge is just another kick in the teeth for early adopters and products and are having a tough early start due to a crippling recession. Tesla buyers are doing the smart thing for themselves and the right thing for North America and the environment as a whole, do not punish them, reward them! If states like Washington and Oregon are having road construction fund shortfalls then they should slightly raise the fuel tax, not beat up on EV buyers. What is next a tax on bicycles or bus fares? Come on, this is stupid!
I could see a law passed requiring the the EV surcharge after registered EVs pass 20% of the total of registered passenger cars, then you could argue about fairness and EVs not needing an incentive anymore...
FLsports, a great post. Thanks
Now we're talking! Great, thoughtful post! For the record, I agree with you about the surcharge for fuel tax.
@Epley: I lived in Tacoma for about a year so am very familiar with Washington State, beautiful state, friendly people, many good memories there... So glad for them that they rejected the state income tax... Just sad to see that the EV surcharge rule was not drafted in a more friendly way, at least it not is an invasive mileage tax with GPS trackers violating our freedoms and privacy like Oregon is considering. Will those dumb-dumbs make EVs go for emissions testing in King and Pierce Counties? Man I hated that crap... "Duh - sir, I can not find your tailpipe..." eheh
@Mel: Thank you, hope my postings inspire critical thinking and action to reform, I hate to see backwards thinking retarding the spread of innovation...
I live in California, and we do not get any breaks on sales tax for trade ins and when you resell your used car the new buyer has to pay sales tax on that transaction as well - and pay sales tax a 2nd time on that car essentially - once when you bought it and again when the new buyer purchases it, and on and on until the car is scrapped.
Here are the details on what states have different laws:
When trading in: All states will allow a deduction of sales tax on purchases with trade ins except California, the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Maryland and Michigan allow no deductions for trade-ins when calculating sales tax and Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire, and Oregon have no sales tax on autos at all.
However, title transfer fees at a dealership are often taxable and document fees are not.
In a private party sale, in every state except Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire, and Oregon the buyer will pay sales tax on a car bought from a For Sale By Owner seller and then pay sales tax on their new car purchase.
I think it's a little silly that you cancelled your reservation over a few thousand in sales tax - your buying a $100,000+ car - is your purchase really driven by sales tax or love of the car!!!???
Historical: the "Progressive" part of the PC label has sinister forebears. Like the Fabian Society, intellectual eugenicists like GB Shaw. But what's in a name?
Brian H@ I actually love history.
For the guy who called me a 'GOP bigot', Republicans are the party of Lincoln and was the first main party to be sympathetic to the abolitionist cause. In the 1840's and 1850's abolition of slavery was a rather radical position, the Republicans disliked slavery and actively sought to curb its spread into the west, we all know what happened in the Civil War, the Democrats were the party of the southern slaveholders and corrupt urban political machines in the North, even as late as the early 20th century the 'solid south' faction of the Democrat party protected the racist Jim Crow laws. The first black office holders were Republicans back in the 1870's and 1880's and it was the Republican President Eisenhower Administration the desegregated Little Rock High School...
As for progressive policy, it was Republican Theodore Roosevelt who created the first national parks and consumer protections. Do not confuse him with his distant cousin Franklin Roosevelt the 'silk stocking' socialist who became president a few decades later who ran up the national debt, addicted millions to welfare (thus effectively buying their vote with public moneys), circumvented the constitution by packing the Supreme Court, enacted wage and price controls, provoked war with the Axis powers (in of itself hypocritical as we were selling war material to them while aiding the Allies!), refused to admit large numbers of Jews from Germany in the late 1930's even though he knew they were being killed and a host of other abuses of executive power and outright crimes against democracy and decency.
So yeah I am Republican and proud of it! I support commonsense ecological conservation measures like Theodore Roosevelt did, I abhor hatred and bigotry like Lincoln and Eisenhower and I am a champion of the freedom of the common man to succeed or fail in a free marketplace like Reagan. Tesla makes economic and ecologic sense so every good Republican should be interested in the company as a fine example of what an american company can do right... But I am crazy for sports cars so love Tesla even more!
Very well said FLSports... I'm proud to be on the same political team with someone that thinks like you!
@FLsports, I think you're still mischaracterizing the situation in Washington State. Where I live the sales tax is 9.5%, so on an $80,000 car that's $7,600. On an $80,000 EV like a Model S, taking into account the $100/year registration surcharge, I'm still paying $7,500 less than a comparably-priced ICE. That's not punitive, that's a huge incentive for EVs.
And no, we don't have to go for emissions testing.
@Salman I do not think the surcharge is necessary yet as the state is not really losing much revenue, I am with the tree-huggers here, EVs being more expensive need every boost they can get during a recession and I do not think raising the fuel tax an extra 2 cents will be bad if it funds highway construction (more than a poultry $100 surcharge on 1% of the passenger car fleet) especially if its makes it more attractive to ditch the ICE.
Tesla loves spotted owls! Gaia drives a Roadster! Love the earth, drive Tesla... The whales will thank you, especially the ones in Prudhoe Bay!

Have you all caught the trailer for Premium Rush yet? (It's a bonus they throw in when you go see Magic Mike. So I hear. Ahem.)
The shots from the cyclist's perspective are incredible, and Manhattan looks stunning as always. I'm not usually an action movie person, but bikes + Joseph Gordon-Levitt = I'm going to have to catch this one when it comes out later this month!

After being shut out from Gary Coleman's life for more than a decade, parents Sue and Willie Coleman will have a chance to say their goodbyes this weekend.
Coleman's family will hold a memorial service in Salt Lake City either Friday, Saturday or Sunday with his parents expected to attend, reps for the late ex-child star told entertainment news outlets on Tuesday.
While the family has not decided whether the service will be private or open to the public, the funeral will likely be held at Lake Hills Mortuary, Coleman's lawyer, Randy Kester, told Usmagazine.com.
U.S. & World
"It's been kind of hard" for Sue Coleman, Kester added. "There are a lot of emotions surrounding all of it."
Coleman, 42, died Friday after being taken off life-support following a brain hemorrhage. Hospitial officials have said the official cause of death is under investigation and they are withholding further details at the request of Coleman's widow, Shannon Price.
Last week, Sue and Larry Coleman revealed they hadn't spoken to their son in more than 10 years, and lashed out at Price and hospital officials for keeping them in the dark with details of their son's sudden death.
"We're not pointing fingers at anyone, but we need to know exactly what happened," Sue Coleman, 67, told People. "We're not angry. We're just concerned. Did our son fall down the stairs? Did he fall in the bathtub? We need to have some closure on our son's life."
In 1989, Coleman was awarded $1.3 million from a lawsuit that accused his parents and his business manager of swindling him out of some of his acting fortune. His parents have maintained their innocence and said they always hoped to reconcile.
"After we stopped hearing from him, we reached out to him anyway we could," Sue Coleman told People. "Over the years, we sent him birthday and Christmas wishes through his agents and managers because we often had no phone number, no address to reach him. But we always hoped someday he'd come around."

This is a hard post to write.
It is no longer clear to me that Turkey belongs in Europe.
Pharisee-style violence in Turkey
Aliye Cetinkaya, a journalist from the Turkish daily Sabah newspaper, who was reporting on the recent protests over the offensive caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed, was stoned in Konya for reasons demonstrators said were provocative – as she did not cover her head. Cetinkaya was taken away by male colleagues after stones hit her head and shoulders. The female journalist was attacked for being 'sexually provocative' for not wearing a head scarf at the demonstration organised by the Peoples Education Research and Support Group in Konya (He-Da-Der) and entitled 'Loyalty to the Prophet'.
A group of protesters insisted that Aliye Cetinkaya get off the bus where she was reporting the march, as they claimed she was provoking the crowd. At this moment, somebody started reciting the Koran into a microphone.
Approximately 30 people then started throwing stones at Cetinkaya, seated with her legs dangling from the back of the vehicle and taking notes. They claimed that her clothes and way of sitting was inappropriate while the Koran was being read, and shouted words of abuse at her.
with Pharisee-style hypocrisy
One of the groups in the demonstration, the Islamist "Association for Training, Research and Cooperation of the People" (HEDA-DER) meanwhile filed a complaint against Cetinkaya the same day, accusing her of disturbing the demonstration, an offence that carries a fine or between 18 months and three years imprisonment under a 1983 law on public demonstrations.
while Turkey's Prime Minister shoots his nation in the foot:
"Today, however, the VVD leader questioned whether Turkey should be allowed into the EU, given the reaction of Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan to the Danish cartoons. Mr Erdogan had called the cartoons "insulting†and demanded that legal action be taken against the cartoonists and the publishers. "If this is the way he thinks and if he is going to give us lessons, then it will be very difficult for Turkey to join the EU,†the VVD leader says in an interview with the Dutch weekly Elsevier. He also criticized the visits this week of Ben Bot, the Dutch Foreign Minister, to Saudi-Arabia and Qatar. Mr van Aartsen does not see the point of visiting these countries at the moment.â€
Dead right.
Even Victor Davis Hanson thinks Turkey-in-Europe now lies dead dreaming
Europe will still talk about bringing Turkey into the fold of the West, but de facto is horrified at the thought that millions of a religion that empowers so many to go berserk over a few cartoons might soon comprise the most populous nation of Europe. I doubt any European diplomat will invest any political capital at all in restarting in earnest Turkish/European Union talks.
As Jeff from Caerdroia wonders how this effects globalization generally:
How does PNM handle the collapse or approaching collapse of rulesets in core nations? The flow of people from the gap to the core is inherently going to bring gap rulesets — those travel in people's heads, after all — and this is already apparent in Britain, France, Spain, Italy, the Low Countries, Denmark and Norway. I suspect we'll see the same in Germany, soon, because they have the same demography/immigrant problem as the rest of Western Europe.
Once the gap rulesets have been imported into the core, can the core rulesets remain established, or are the core rulesets inherently self-defeating? And if they are inherently self-defeating, at least when confronted with a lower-order ruleset from the gap, what changes to the core rulesets (and hopefully there are some short of mass deportation or genocide) can be made to avert the consequences of a core ruleset collapse (the main consequence being moving from the core to the gap)?
There are four main reasons to support Turkey's accession to the European Union
1. Turkey, as a center of Greco-Roman civilization, is inherently Western
2. Turkey, as a full Cold War ally, deserves it
3. Turkey, as a low-wage country, will help jump-start the European economy
4. Turkey, as a majority Muslim country, can be a beachhead int he Global War on Terror,
To deal with these in turn,
1. Muslim countries lost their Roman roots by abandoning italic laws and adopting the Sharia
2. Ukraine was a Cold-War enemy. The past is past. The future is now.
3. Europe, as even T.R. Reid acknowledges, is a high-unemployment continent. Europe has structural problems that premature immigration may only excacerbate
4. Europe, as a majority Christian county, can be a beachhead for them in the Global War on Terror.
I have Turkish friends and Turkish relatives. I have traditionally supported Turkey's membership in the European Union. But not if it will drag 25 other European states down.
That's not progress. That's continental suicide.

Earth from Space: Waters of central China
This Envisat radar image features the Dongting Lake and the Yangtze River in south-central China.
Dongting Lake (bottom centre) is China's second largest freshwater body. The lake is fed from the north by the Yangtze (seen snaking across the top of the image) and from the south by the Zi (visible), Xiang, Yuan and Li rivers.
The lake's size varies considerably from season to season. This image was created by combining three Envisat Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR) acquisitions taken over the same area, with colours representing changes that occurred in the surface between acquisitions. The various colours of blue show the variations in the lake's total area.
With a length of 6300 km, the Yangtze is the longest river in Asia and the third longest in the world. It rises in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and flows through nine provinces before reaching the East China Sea near Shanghai.
The Yangtze River has some of the most turbid waters in the world. Its total sediment load is estimated at 680 million tonnes a year – equivalent in weight to a hundred Great Pyramids. A rare species of freshwater dolphin, called Finless Porpoise for its almost complete lack of a dorsal fin, lives in the river. The river is also home to the world's largest hydroelectric power station, the Three Gorges Dam.
The big body of water above the Yangtze to the right side of the image is Lake Hong, known across the country for its beauty and for crab farming.
This ASAR image includes data acquired on 22 December 2002, 19 June 2005 and 19 April 2009.

Congratulations C&NN's national Natural Leaders Coordinator Juan Martinez, named National Geographic Emerging Explorer! http://bit.ly/j02Cxj
Way to go, Juan!
Heather, and others, one easy way to find local leaders is to go to the members section and type in your two letter State code. For you it would be "CA." There are two big efforts in California -- San Diego and the Bay Area. Leaders are Anne Fege or Mary Roscoe respectively. They are also both here on C&NN Connect. Again -- go to the members section and type in their name to find them.
Hi Leaders-
An invitation for any local natural leaders to join me in organizing and carrying out my 7th Annual Earth Day Celebration on Stinson Beach (Marin County, CA). Just posted it as a Let's G.O. event. See http://homepage.mac.com/zpine/ed/ed.html for details. Contact me via the address at that website.
