Through the use of lighting, bold color and recycled materials, Adela, inspired by the science of art, focuses on energy consumption. Aiming to alleviate the inefficient use of resources, the Romanian born artist constructs sculptures with synthetic material that radiate color, light, and fun. Taking many shapes and forms, Adela captures and interprets serious societal issues in an enlightened way. Traveling around the world, Adela’s life experience can be perceived through her vibrant sculptures. Using a layering technique to convey her messages, her natural inspirations contrast fiercely against the man-made materials of her work. We explored the MiND of Adela to see how her ideas transform into the colorful sculptures that she creates. Adela Andea What inspires/influences you in your artwork? How do these inspirations translate into your work? – culture, background, daily life, imagination, people. ADELA ANDEA: My art education had a big influence over my artistic life. I earned my Master of Fine Arts in New Media at University of North Texas and my Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting at the University of Houston. It was during that period when my affinity to contemporary art currents crystallized and gave shape to my endeavors into installations using light. During that time, conceptually my work started to take shape and focus on the meaning of nature, natural vs artificial concepts, environmental issues, and technological advances. By applying the dichotomy of the natural vs artificial concepts, my art contemplates positively on the necessity of progress and technological advances, blending artistically the romantic notion of nature with the realistic notion of man-made aesthetics. Outside academia, there are events that weight heavy in my artistic career. Such events can be recreational in nature – my cruise trip to Alaska a few years ago brought new awareness to me on the ecological issues – or professional. My residency in France last year immersed me in a new culture from where I drew inspiration for my art. I am inspired by science, when it relates to nature. My position is to bring awareness on modern technologies that are environmentally friendly by means of increased efficiency: create the same effect but use less resources like energy. The evolution and progress in the technical field is not an enemy to the environment but rather its biggest supporter. New discoveries enable traditional industries to create efficient processes that are better attuned to our surroundings. Adopting an attitude of restriction stands in the way of progress. Being an artist, what is your personal outlook on life? ADELA ANDEA: In general, I noticed that as an artist, since I embraced this career full time, I have a more hopeful outlook on life; sometimes even too much positive thinking on issues. I believe that this optimism came with achieving success as an artist in a very competitive field, while enjoying my life and doing what I enjoy the most – making art. What role does art have in society? ADELA ANDEA: Art should be a major influence in any advanced civilized society. However, the visual arts from an academic perspective are slowly marginalized and misunderstood. The study of visual arts separated from the practical industrial economic application left artist isolated, unable to call being an artist a profession and in most cases without basic economic means. This major dependency on how the society supports and views its artists is a matter of what type of culture we are and how much we focus on creating progress, understanding the role of creativity in all professions and celebrating the creative minds. Do you believe art can be an inspiration in the retail industry and environments? ADELA ANDEA: Yes, art can be an inspiration in all aspects of life. The retail industry needs artists for improving their business through better visuals and integrating form and function. However, there is a separation between studio artists and industrial designers. If businesses collect art or they hire designers to improve their products, they are two different things. But in both cases, I am happy to know that the visual arts may play a role. What is the conceptual content of your artwork? What word would you use to describe your work? ADELA ANDEA: My art offers opportunities to investigate the visual significance of the contemporary technologies. It provides a commentary on the individual interaction, theoretical discussion of the post-traditional self and how certain technologies are embedded in our culture. The infusion of my art with the new technologies relies on recent technological advances, which are also well received through consumer perspective. What piece of your artwork do you identify with or defines you as an artist? ”ADELA: The large sphere, titled A.57, is representing an imaginary asteroid or planet where the energies of various materials translate into a plasmatic eruption of colors. The work incorporates various previous materials and experiments wrapped into a sphere that encompasses the essence of my work in the past decade. To paraphrase Otto Piene, “Light is the incarnation of visible energy.” For me this piece has a variety of energies that emulate the existence of a live imaginary planet. What would you like achieve/make people feel when they view your artwork? ADELA ANDEA: My intention is to create large scale sculptures and environments that engulf the viewers and captivate through over stimulation by light. By stepping in and walking through the installation the viewers become temporarily part of the artwork as they experience the artwork from inside and outside at the same time, thus challenging the notion of a fixed point of view. Environments according to Allen Kaprow are an extension of painting when referring to the issue of space. The spaces I am working with is a major consideration for how the installation will work and I took into consideration the architecture of the room as a component of the artwork. “Such medium exists now only in my imagination, but artists, in general, are supposed to imagine and dream about the future” What do you believe create value in art? Aesthetic, craftsmanship, the gallery, relevance to the market, reputation etc? ADELA ANDEA: This is a very difficult question. I would like to think that the success of the work should be dependent on all the factors mentioned. Ideally, an artist needs to start with a solid education and present original ideas well-crafted to the market. My interest in contemporary art came from an excellent education in fine arts, continued by gallery representation specialized in contemporary art. Hopefully a balanced combination of all the elements mentioned brings a sense of fairness to achieving success. However, I am fully aware that this ideal scenario is not always the case. The presumption that all artistic aspect of the art are unpredictable and not concerned with rules, is what works against its own definition of what defines good art. There are too many variables in this equation. Over time I found there can be one constant and that is the commitment of the artist to her/his own visions and creations, but it is not the only factor that brings value to the art. How do you see your art evolving? ADELA ANDEA: I tried several mediums before arriving at the medium of light. I found that each medium has its own fascination and in my artwork, I often tried to combine them. Thus, my wish would be for a polymorphic medium to exist. Akin to how you can change the wave length of some LED elements; this new medium should be able to change from light to sound, or from solid to liquid, from smooth to harsh and so on. Such medium exists now only in my imagination, but artists, in general, are supposed to imagine and dream about the future. Best piece of advice you have ever been given… ADELA ANDEA: The best advice I got was in my 20s, and it was to follow my dreams, my calling and pursue the career that suits me the best. I was born in Romania in the 70’s where being an artist was not a possibility. I moved to the United States in 1999 and after spending 5 years working as a paralegal in California, I realized that my calling was art. I moved to Houston and graduated Valedictorian and Summa Cum Laude from the Painting program at the University of Houston. I continued my higher education in studio arts and I received my Master of Fine Arts in New Media, with a minor in Sculpture from University of North Texas, Denton. While earning my master degree, I exhibited extensively with two contemporary art galleries, Anya Tish Gallery in Houston and Cris Worley Fine Arts in Dallas. Pursuing my artistic career was a great decision. I now have an extensive resume, numerous solo shows, museum shows and my work acquired in private, corporate and public collections, in United States (California, Pennsylvania, New York, Florida, Texas) and Internationally (France, Germany, Romania).

The event marked the 40th founding anniversary of Vietsovpetro and the 60th anniversary of the traditional day of the Vietnam oil and gas industry (November 27, 1961 - November 27, 2021). At the event. (Photo: VNA). Addressing the ceremony, Vietsovpetro Deputy General Director Vu Mai Khanh said new generation unmanned mini oil rigs BK-18A and other internal connection projects are constructed in Bach Ho oil field in Lot 09-1 in Vietnam’s continental shelf, about 125km southeast of Vung Tau city. BK-18A was designed and constructed by Vietsovpetro to exploit oil and gas from six wells with a total capacity of 1,360 tonnes. BK-19 was built and put into use to maintain the total oil production of Vietsovpetro at 3 million tonnes as set by the 2021 plan. The complicated developments of the COVID-19 pandemic has caused difficulties for the construction of the BK-18A and BK-19 oil rigs. However, Vietsovpetro has carried out a series of solutions, including reviewing the overall construction stages for the whole project and adopting three-on-site model. Thus, the projects have met the desired quality and were completed 48 days ahead of schedule.

__label__wiki	0.550024	0.550024	Women in Agriculture: A Farmer's Perspective This post was written by Nicole Sugerman who farms at the "Henry Got Crops" CSA, a joint project of the Weavers Way Co-op Farm and Philadelphia's W. B. Saul High School of Agricultural Sciences and one of the first high school-based CSAs in the country. The article originally appeared in the Weavers Way Shuttle. It feels kind of like the elephant in the room. It's not that we don't talk or think about it around here -- indeed, we do both, rather frequently. But rarely do we discuss it with others. For some reason, it's not the kind of subject that is discussed all that openly. Instead, it's alluded to subtly, in a manner that just confuses me at first, until I remember that this is a little unusual. "You don't look like a farmer," people say when I tell them my profession. "What do you mean?" I reply, never able to let an issue go, "Oh, I don't know," they reply. "You're just little. You don't look like you ride a tractor." It still takes me a minute to put it together. (Why do you have to be "big" to ride a tractor? Why do you have to ride a tractor all the time to be a farmer? What does it mean to not "look" like someone who does ride a tractor?) Until I realize, oh, they mean because I am a young woman. At this point, I never know quite what to say. "I ride a tractor sometimes," or, "Yep, well, I am." The subject changes. But I am constantly reminded that to be a female farmer is something a little out-of-the-ordinary, to work at a farm site staffed almost entirely by women, even more so. So I decided to express my thoughts about some of the intricacies of women in agriculture. Lately, I hear a lot about female farmers as a "new trend." According to the 2007 census, one or two out of ten farms is now operated by a woman. However, the "trend" part is hard to track, and seems to me to obscure some history of women who have always been involved in farming. Female farmers have been historically under-reported and under-recognized. The U.S. census records only one operator per farm, the deed holder. As the majority of land is officially owned by men, this renders invisible all female partners who manage farms with their husbands or families. As I learned from this episode of the radio series Making Contact, worldwide, between 65 and 75 percent of all food is grown by women, who own only one percent of the world's land. Mainly operating as subsistence growers, this food production is often conceptualized as "domestic work," obscuring recognition of these female farmers worldwide. Still, the visibility of female farmers, at least within the U.S., is growing. For all its limitations, the census has recorded a more than doubling of farms operated by women between 1978 and 2005, from 100,000 to 250,000. As the country's farmers age, a new "back to the land" movement, fueled partly by desires to put personal politics into action and an increasing disillusionment with the job market and traditional concept of careerism for young people, is encouraging a new crop of farmers, many of them women. We new farmers often farm under nontraditional arrangements -- co-farmers are often platonic managing partners instead of the heterosexual husband-wife team of the past -- meaning women are more often recognized as farm owners or principle managers. Additionally, as farmers age, their land is more often being taken over by wives, daughters, or other female family members. Interestingly, as making a living as a farmer becomes ever more difficult, it becomes women's work. At a farmer's market I frequent, one of the farms is a hundred-acre conventional New Jersey farm that sells corn, tomatoes, squash, and tree fruit. The farm is run by two middle-aged sisters who recently took over management of the farm from their 80-year-old father. I was excited to see a farm run by women of a slightly older generation, so I asked them their thoughts. "Most of the time, other farmers treat us okay," they told me, "although if we do something wrong, it's, 'oh those girls.' We bring along [our brother] to market sometimes; he doesn't know a thing about farming, but people just want to talk to 'the man in charge.'" They took over the farm, they told me, because their husbands and brothers had to get "better" jobs that brought in more money. Without the expectation of being primary breadwinners, they were left as the ones who could keep the family farm alive. In both conversation and personal thought about females and farming, I want to be careful to avoid gender essentialism. I do not want to make generalizations like, "women make good farmers because they like to nurture the earth," or, "men are better with machines." Gender expression, I believe, is a complex combination of socialization, culture, and genetics. Not being able to divorce these things from each other, I find it frustrating and counterproductive to base ideas or logic on what men or women are "naturally" like or good at doing. That said, I acknowledge my shortcomings, like a lack of confidence with machines and power tools. Part of this is completely personal, gender aside; I happen to not be good with power tools, whereas I know many women who are. However, there is a gendered aspect to power-tool-confidence. My sister recently visited me in Philadelphia, and came to work with me on the farm. When I asked her what she wanted to work on, she replied, "anything with power tools," explaining that she recently volunteered recycling old doors for a green-deconstruction non-profit with a male friend of hers. When the staff person trained them, he offered a power drill to help, but spoke about it and handed it only to my sister's male friend. Finally, the friend asked my sister if she, too, would like to use the power drill. My sister did, and had a great time. My insecurity with machines and tools has several layers. I am not good at them, I suspect, because I was never encouraged to use them, so I never gained comfort or ability through practice. Now, I am afraid to practice because I am not good, and I do not want other people to notice and use their observations of my fumbling to further whatever ingrained ideas they have of women being bad with power tools. It gets rather angsty. I do not want to speak for all female-bodied farmers, but I think many of us feel like we have something to prove. I have to remind myself sometimes that just because I can't shovel compost as fast or carry a wheelbarrow quite as full of watermelons, doesn't mean that I am not strong or not a good farmer. We work together. And anyway, we all can handle wheelbarrows that are pretty darn full. We never intentionally created a female dominated farm here at Henry Got Crops. Most of our applicants for internships and apprentices just happened to be female, and most of those qualified ended up being women. We have three female apprentices, two female interns, and one male intern. (We now have another -- a big welcome to Ed, who is newly working with us this fall!) I am glad, though, to be able to offer a positive view of women as strong, hard, workers to the students here at Saul; I want the female students to know that they can be farmers if they want, or anything else they aspire toward. One of our Saul summer interns brought her boyfriend out to work with her one morning. "How did he like it?" I asked her the next day. "I brought him out so he would see how hard I work," she replied. "He said it was fun, but really hard. He said he couldn't do this every day." I have to admit, I was pretty proud. Labels: farming, food, local posted by tlaskawy 9:37 PM Permalink• Email• 1 Comments < BACK TO TOP It's Always Raining in Philadelphia Or so it's seemed the last few months. And rain can be fun, except when it overloads your stormwater system and causes raw sewage to pour into your rivers. It took Grist to alert me to what's going on in my own backyard but now I know that Philly's got a plan: Philadelphia has announced a $1.6 billion plan to transform the city over the next 20 years by embracing its storm water - instead of hustling it down sewers and into rivers as fast as possible. The proposal, which several experts called the nation's most ambitious, reimagines the city as an oasis of rain gardens, green roofs, thousands of additional trees, porous pavement, and more. The plan is a radical departure from the highly engineered tunnels and sewage plant expansions cities have traditionally opted for. "This is the most significant use of green infrastructure I've seen in the country, the largest scale I've seen," said Jon Capacasa, regional director of water protection for the Environmental Protection Agency, which has the final say on whether the plan passes muster. "We commend Philadelphia for breaking the ice," he said. Apparently, cities around the country are waiting to see if the EPA gives the plan the greenlight; if so, this could be the start of a nationwide trend. And all it took was a little shift in perspective: "Instead of figuring out how to manage this pollution, maybe we should be looking at how to prevent it in the first place," said Howard Neukrug, director of the Office of Watersheds in the Water Department. "Let's break down some of the barriers against nature and deal with rainwater where it lands." The idea now is to "peel back" the city's concrete and asphalt and replace them with plants - with rain gardens, green roofs, heavily planted curb extensions, vegetated "swales" in parking lots, and mini-wetlands. One of the most radical departures for city planners is this shift from "management" to "prevention." Instead just accepting that the city has to vastly increase its built infrastructure to handle the huge amount of stormwater runoff that currently exists (the prospect of which was, among other things, prohibitively expensive), Philly decided that it would attack the problem at the source. It's funny how that subtle shift in mindset leads to such a radical shift in policy. If we can apply this kind of thinking to other things like car usage or, oh, I don't know, carbon emissions, maybe we can make some real progress.

It belongs to The New Republic's new article on "The End of Fish" by marine biologist Daniel Pauly. Indeed, it's in the article itself where you'll find the really bad news: Unfortunately, it is not just the future of the fishing industry that is at stake, but also the continued health of the world's largest ecosystem. While the climate crisis gathers front-page attention on a regular basis, people--even those who profess great environmental consciousness--continue to eat fish as if it were a sustainable practice. But eating a tuna roll at a sushi restaurant should be considered no more environmentally benign than driving a Hummer or harpooning a manatee. In the past 50 years, we have reduced the populations of large commercial fish, such as bluefin tuna, cod, and other favorites, by a staggering 90 percent. One study, published in the prestigious journal Science, forecast that, by 2048, all commercial fish stocks will have "collapsed," meaning that they will be generating 10 percent or less of their peak catches. Whether or not that particular year, or even decade, is correct, one thing is clear: Fish are in dire peril, and, if they are, then so are we. It's worth reading the whole thing. So go do it. Photo credit: The New Republic Big Ag on Climate Change: "What, me worry?" Once again, topics covered at length in the pixels of Grist are slowly percolating out into the wider media world. Newsweek over the weekend posted an article by Jeneen Interlandi about the grave effects of climate change on agriculture, summed up as the triple threat of "droughts, bugs and big storms." And once again, we learn the future is now: Farmers on both coasts are already starting to reap some of what the nation's fossil-fuel addiction has sown. Crops in those regions (cranberries in the East and almonds in the West) require a certain number of colder days, or "winter chill" before they break dormancy and begin flowering. Too few cold days disrupts the plants' flowering schedule which in turn affects pollination and hurts yield. A UC Davis study found that winter chill has already declined by 30 percent in California's Central Valley, and almond growers report that yields are down 20 percent from last year. Shorter winters have had a similar effect on cranberry yields in Massachusetts and New Jersey. As usual, we see the initial effects of a largescale phenomenon on the margins. As Nathanaiel Green of the NRDC puts it, "it hasn't really hit the breadbasket yet," which is why Big Ag, focused as it is on grains and commodity crops grown in the Midwest and South, can so easily dismiss it. READ THE REST OF THIS POST ON GRIST Labels: climate, farming, food, politics Velociraptor Blogging I respectfully disagree with Brad Plumer as regards this latest bit of research on Velociraptor hunting techniques. A group of scientists have figured out what that nasty claw on Velociraptor's foot was for: [Lead scientist Phil] Manning suggests Velociraptor used its climbing ability to perch in trees and pounce on prey from above, with its claws puncturing the skin so it could cling to its victim's body while biting and subduing it. Death from Above, Raptor-style? Are you kidding me? That's the stuff of nightmares, baby. That said, if the below conceptual drawing is what they really looked like? Maybe I'd reconsider. Apparently, it's well known that they were small and had feathers. Still, Death from Above Rulez! Illinois Leads the Way to Local This development in Illinois managed to pass somewhat under the radar, probably because it took place during the dog days of summer. But it's still a big deal -- Illinois has a new law that starts building the infrastructure for a real regional food system: The legislation establishes a council to develop a fresh farm and food system in the state, and it creates a system that allows buyers for state agencies to pay up to 10 percent above the lowest bid when purchasing locally grown foods. It also sets a goal for state-owned agencies to increase their purchase of locally grown foods each year so that 20 percent of their food purchase is spent on Illinois-grown foods by 2020. Currently, an estimated 4 percent of the money Illinois residents spend on food each year is for products grown in the state, and just several hundred of the state's 76,000 farmers are producing for the local market, according to a task force report. That last statistic is astonishing. Illinois has tens of thousands of farmers and only one half of one percent of them sell their products in their home state. The new law is all the more impressive when you realize that Illinois is second only to Iowa in corn production -- we're talking the heart of the Corn Belt here. It's quite a statement when a top agricultural commodity state has decided it's time to diversify its food production. And make no mistake, institutional buyers are exactly what growers need to have the confidence to give up their reliance on commodity crops, which they can always sell to the local grain elevator. Asking a farmer to grow something that he or she can't hope to sell isn't exactly a recipe for success. But what happens if they know the state will not only buy their produce, but pay a premium for it? I'm smelling a win-win here. Photo by Daniel Schwen used under a CC license Labels: food, politics Tom Vilsack, Real School Lunch Reformer? Wel, well, well. USDA Chief Tom Vilsack is certainly talking the talk of school lunch reform: When Congress updates the U.S. school lunch program, it should remove paperwork barriers to enrollment to free or reduced-price meals, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said on Wednesday. Vilsack told a conference on children's health it should be simpler to qualify for child nutrition programs and he mentioned "direct certification," which would add children automatically to school meals if their families are approved for other social programs. Of course, the USDA should also go one step further and make Philly's recently rescued-from-oblivion "Universal Feeding" program, where entire schools in low-income areas are automatically enrolled in the free/reduced meal program, the nationwide standard. But the great thing about something like "direct certification" is that it would help kids who live in more economically diverse areas, and whose schools might not quality for a Universal Feeding-type program. This is definitely a good idea -- anything that reduces paperwork and eliminates the need for kids to "opt-in" to the school lunch program is a big help -- and the Reuters article above speculates that hundreds of thousands of kids would be brought into the system this way. And I really like the sound of this next idea: [Vilsack] suggested pilot projects to provide food when children are out of school, perhaps an electronic benefits transfer card for use in the summer. Again, anything that increases food options for kids out of school is surely worth the effort. Hopefully, any such EBT cards would have some restrictions on them, i.e. you couldn't load up on chips and soda, but I like the idea of taking the "school lunch" program out of schools and into the community. With industry-friendly "moderates" Sen. Blanche Lincoln and Rep. Collin Peterson now spearheading the Child Nutrition Act's reauthorization process in Congress, it's up to the USDA and the White House to provide real leadership on these issues. So it's good to hear that Vilsack is ready to make some dramatic change. Labels: food, health, politics Flywheels! This is one is irresistable. From Yale Environment 360: The U.S. Department of Energy has granted a $43 million loan to a Massachusetts-based company to prove the value of a new technology in which spinning flywheels are used to improve the efficiency of the electric grid. Beacon Power Corp. will build a 20-megawatt flywheel plant in upstate New York in which flywheels spinning up to 16,000 times per minute will act as a sort of short-term power storage system for the state’s electrical distribution system, according to the Associated Press. Essentially, the spinning flywheels would suck excess energy off the electric grid when supply is high, store it in the spinning cores, and return the energy to the grid when demand grows. Keeping things running smoothly is what oil- and coal-fired plants do well but global warming is putting the kaibosh on carbon-based grids. In an era of the more intermittent solar and wind power, electricity "storage" technologies will be key. And the centuries old flywheel is just the thing. Of course, they won't look like the one above. Beacon's flywheels are "small" at one ton each and spin in sealed chambers, pictured at right. The old ones are a bit more dramatic, but still... Let the steampunks rejoice! Photo of 19th c flywheel from Wikimedia Commons Beacon Power flywheel photo credit: the AP/Lisa Poole Plastics, the Silent Obesogens Hmm... That title doesn't quite seem to capture the seriousness of the issue, does it? But despite rampant skepticism, the data continue to pour in -- chemicals in some of the most common plastics and household products, things that surround us every minute of the day, are major culprits in the obesity epidemic. At least now that fact is now getting some well-deserved attention. From Newsweek: Evidence has been steadily accumulating that certain hormone-mimicking pollutants, ubiquitous in the food chain, have two previously unsuspected effects. They act on genes in the developing fetus and newborn to turn more precursor cells into fat cells, which stay with you for life. And they may alter metabolic rate, so that the body hoards calories rather than burning them, like a physiological Scrooge. "The evidence now emerging says that being overweight is not just the result of personal choices about what you eat, combined with inactivity," says Retha Newbold of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) in North Carolina, part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). "Exposure to environmental chemicals during development may be contributing to the obesity epidemic." They are not the cause of extra pounds in every person who is overweight—for older adults, who were less likely to be exposed to so many of the compounds before birth, the standard explanations of genetics and lifestyle probably suffice—but environmental chemicals may well account for a good part of the current epidemic, especially in those under 50. And at the individual level, exposure to the compounds during a critical period of development may explain one of the most frustrating aspects of weight gain: you eat no more than your slim friends, and exercise no less, yet are still unable to shed pounds. Note that this phenomenon really hits kids hardest (as does the obesity epidemic), both because of fetal and childhood exposure, and also because of the fact that these products have only become truly ubiquitous since the eighties. Indeed, to my mind, the clincher comes in the fat babies. Or as Newsweek puts it: ...[T]hese [other] causes cannot explain the ballooning of one particular segment of the population, a segment that doesn't go to movies, can't chew, and was never that much into exercise: babies. In 2006 scientists at the Harvard School of Public Health reported that the prevalence of obesity in infants under 6 months had risen 73 percent since 1980. "This epidemic of obese 6-month-olds," as endocrinologist Robert Lustig of the University of California, San Francisco, calls it, poses a problem for conventional explanations of the fattening of America. "Since they're eating only formula or breast milk, and never exactly got a lot of exercise, the obvious explanations for obesity don't work for babies," he points out. "You have to look beyond the obvious." And what's beyond the obvious? Plastics. Children's Health Magazine recently did a story on "Your Big Fat House" that uncovered just how common these -- as one scientist has dubbed them -- "obesogens" are in your home: Carpet (PBDEs), vinyl flooring (PVC), mattress (PBDEs), toys, (BPA), waterproof clothing (Phthalates, PFOA) Raincoats (phthalates), rain boots (phthalates), faux leather coats, shoes, purses, and briefcases (phthalates) PVC pipes, detergents, and dryer sheets (phthalates) Carpet (PBDEs), air fresheners (phthalates), furniture (PBDEs), electronics (PBDEs) Toothbrush (BPA), toothpaste, vinyl shower curtain, water from the shower comes through PVC pipes, soaps, shampoos, deodorants, creams, powders, and makeup (Phthalates), nail polish (Phthalates, PFOA) Produce in the fridge (pesticides), meat in the freezer (PBDEs, PCBs, pesticides), canned food in the pantry (BPA), jars of peanut butter (phthalates), jars of tomato sauce (phthalates), jarred baby food (BPA), plastic cups, baby bottles, plates, and utensils (BPA) Now you can probably find a way to eliminate some of these, especially in the bathroom and the kitchen. But are people going to rip up their vinyl floors and throw out ALL their children's toys (not to mention those precious consumer electronics). And for many products how are you even supposed to find out if they contain these chemicals? In theory, you have to seek out products that declare their "status." But really. Are we seriously expected to junk the entire contents of our houses? The advice that comes with the article tries to make this into one of those issues that can be solved by a good spring cleaning. Clearly, we're way beyond that. In June, the NYT's Nick Kristof had an article about this class of chemicals and the danger they pose to ourselves and the environment. And he lamented the EPA's "glacial pace" in addressing them -- truly glacial if you realize that, though the connection to obesity is new, scientists have been aware of the existence of endocrine disrupting chemicals for decades. But the reason is obvious, isn't it? These chemicals are in EVERYTHING. Truly everything. The "disruption" to manufacturers at every level is mind-numbing. We're not talking about phasing out Freon here. This is about reformulating some of the fundamental ingredients to just about every major consumer item. Plus, to go ahead and ban them would not only force our friends in industrial chemicals and the oil industry (most of these products come from oil, remember) to find safe alternatives, which in some cases might be impossible. But all these suppliers (and the consumer products companies that incorporated these poisons into their offerings) would also be open to massive liability lawsuits. But the Newsweek piece concludes with the suggestion that even the EPA understands that the issue can't be ignored for much longer: This fall, scientists from NIH, the Food and Drug Administration, the Environmental Protection Agency, and academia will discuss obesogens at the largest-ever government-sponsored meeting on the topic. For this to lead to real change, of course, it will take more than articles in Newsweek and expert panels (and immunity from lawsuits which all these companies will inevitably be granted). What we need is outrage and consumer revolt. Anyone know where to find that? Photo by tuppus used under a CC license Labels: food, health, housing posted by tlaskawy 11:41 AM Drain the Food Swamps! The new farmers market in front of the White House is being rightly praised for its multi-layered symbolism. But the lower-profile kid-driven transactions that take place every day at other markets represent the great challenge for food system reform and obesity prevention. The Philly Inquirer reports: Like clockwork at 3:15 p.m., the eighth grader - Scotch plaid shoes, cell phone pressed to her ear - exits Tairina Grocery near the corner of Fourth and York, her first stop out of Welsh Elementary School, 30 seconds away, one of a steady stream of kids leaving the store with filmy black sacks. The contents of hers is typical - two one-ounce bags of Herr's Salt & Vinegar chips, a can of Coke, and a cake called Elim's Delight, favored by North Philadelphia's schoolkids for its price point: 25 cents. This ritual - often played out before and after school - adds an average of 360 calories (per visit) to the kids' daily total, subverting the laborious fine-tuning of school lunches, and upping the odds of obesity-related disease. To combat this, a group of researchers from Temple University have partnered with the innovative (and nationally recognized) Philadelphia Food Trust -- a non-profit involved with food deserts as well as farmers markets and school food -- to look for alternatives. More from the Inqy: ...A dozen corner stores around five city schools (besides Welsh, Clymer, Fairhill, Kenderton, and Robert Morris) are being not only studied, but manipulated: They're asked to post the Food Trust's Snackin' Fresh posters ("Small Size, Big Taste!" is one), stock bottled water, and visibly display coolers of chopped-fruit salads. A crucial element of the study is to have researchers perform voluntary inspections for students' purchases -- most obesity studies rely on self-reporting, which is notoriously unreliable. And what's inside those before- and after-school shopping bags is pretty depressing. One researcher saw an eighth-grader's $1.80 haul -- a Coke, chips and piece of chocolate cake. 500 calories -- calorically (though not nutritionally) equal to the lunch served that day at school. These lunches are free to most students as the school in question participates in Philly's Universal Feeding program. As the article points out, the hard work that went into getting junk food out of these Philly schools is being almost totally undermined. The good news is that the researchers' goal is not to eliminate all of these purchases, but to reduce them. But here's where you realize it's all about price. The bottled water with which the Food Trust supplies the participating corner stores costs 50 cents. For that price, a student can buy a sugary drink and a bag of chips. Think about that for a second. A tasteless and odorless (but refreshing!) zero calories costs twice as much as 200+ sweet and salty calories. That's Big Food's great legacy to society. Thanks, guys! They have in essence put dirt-cheap candy stores across the street from schools across the country. For pocket change kids can eat nutritionally empty put calorie packed junk twice a day -- and their parents need never know. Meanwhile, the "candymakers" are screaming that anyone who wants to do something about this is a Communist. At some point, we're going to have to drain these food swamps. Cities will have to uses zoning laws to restrict what can and can't be sold near school. We're going to have to tax junk food, folks. These kids' purchases are likely significantly underestimated and probably not accounted for properly in most economic models of how taxes will affect purchases. If junk food taxes did nothing else but reduce these shopping trips, they would be a rip-roaring success. This latest effort shines invaluable light on what's going on in these corner stores. The least our politicians can do is show the courage necessary to do something about it. Photo by loop_oh used under a CC license Begun These Soda Wars Have To read the news, it would look like soda taxes are just around the corner. First, President Obama mildly suggested in an interview in Men's Health that soda taxes were worth some consideration. Then Obamafoodorama broke the news of Coca-Cola CEO Muhtar Kent's reaction to said soda tax: "I have never seen it work where a government tells people what to eat and what to drink,"’ Kent said. "If it worked, the Soviet Union would still be around." Kent also called the soda tax "outrageous." Whew. The man is pissed. That's probably why Coke is one of the companies behind the full-page ad in the Washington Post by a new junk food industry astroturf group designed to combat junk food taxes. More from Ob Fo: The ad… was in the A section of the Washington Post on Sunday, part of a new campaign that lobby group Americans Against Food Taxes is running to fight taxation of soda and sugary beverages, although the plea is "don't tax our groceries." Coca Cola funds the group, as does Pepsi Cola, Dr. Pepper, Canada Dry, McDonald's, Jack in the Box, among others. And now the NYT has jumped in to the debate with an article which mostly echoes Ob Fo in the particulars. One twist that the NYT adds, however, is the fact that a penny per ounce federal tax on soda would raise $14.8 billion in its first year--that's a lot of money. Photo by trekkyandy used under a CC license Plastic Power Let's accentuate the positive today, shall we? The NYT's Green Inc. blog is reporting that a startup has an operating plant in the DC area that can convert used plastic (i.e. garbage) into usable fuel: Entrepreneurs have been trying for years to turn low-value wastes into high-value products. Waste plastic is among the lowest in value, and gasoline or diesel fuel the highest, but machines to do that conversion usually consume a lot of energy and get gummed-up by leftover material that they cannot convert. Now a company in Washington, D.C., is trying out a new way -- heating the plastic to a very carefully controlled temperature range, with infra-red energy. The company, Envion, is expected to cut the ribbon on Wednesday morning on a $5 million plant that it says will annually convert 6,000 tons of plastic into nearly a million barrels of something resembling oil. The product can be blended with other components and sold as gasoline or diesel. "We are the world's largest oil consumer and the world's biggest producer of waste," said Michael Han, chairman and chief executive of the company. This process will convert one to the other for about $10 a barrel, he said. An important element to the conversion is that the process is electrically powered -- no fuel is burned on-site to run the converter -- so that a renewably-powered plastic-to-gasoline facility is inevitable. This is quite a game-changing development given that we're drowning our land and choking our seas with plastic -- much of it not recyclable. This process offers at least the hope that we'll find a way to stay afloat. On the other hand, it's worth observing that plastic represents a fairly stable way to sequester carbon. By turning it into fuel and then burning it, we're putting even more carbon into the atmosphere. But if this scales massively and ultimately is able to displace conventional oil production (itself a carbon-intensive process) we might be looking at a real win-win. See! I stayed positive all the way to the end.

In a speech to the National Cattleman's Beef Association, one of the main agribusiness industry groups, your Senate Ag Committee Chairman double dipped in spectacular anti-environmental fashion. First up -- as reported in National Journal ($ub req'd) -- the climate bill: ...Lincoln she said does not support the House-passed climate-change bill because it "picks winners and losers" and "places a disproportionate share of the burden" on her home state of Arkansas in particular and rural and poor America in general. Lincoln said she will not support a climate change bill in the Senate if it is similar to the House-passed bill. I'd point out that opposing climate change is also about picking winners and losers, Senator. And if we listen to you, Blanche, we all lose. Lincoln strongly supports putting Max Baucus, Senate Finance Commitee chair, in charge of the Senate's version of climate change. Did I mention that he's also on the Ag Committee? Must've slipped my mind. But Lincoln publicly harshing all over climate change isn't necessarily anything new. Lincoln publicly harshing all over clean water regulations? That's new. Lincoln said a provision in the Clean Water Restoration Act passed by the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee that covers "the waters of the United States" rather than "navigable" waters needs to be amended so EPA does not interpret it to cover all waters. "We've seen in the past where the imagination can be stretched," Lincoln said. "We don't need the imagination to be stretched right now." Of course, the NYT just informed us that our imaginations regarding the danger posed to us by our nation's drinking water have failed us -- stretching them, along with the EPA's power over safe drinking water is exactly what we need. I think I'm going to be sick. Keep in mind that Lincoln's opposition to EPA jurisdiction over "all waters" has nothing, in her mind, to do with drinking water. What she and her ag industry allies do have in mind is keeping the EPA well away from livestock factory farm manure lagoons. Is it her problem that they have an awful tendency to overflow into the water supply? As does raw liquid manure sprayed on fields. As does excess nitrogen fertilizer. As do pesticides and weedkillers like Roundup and atrazine. And if she has anything to do with it, none of that will be Tyson Foods, Smithfield Foods or the American Farm Bureau's problem either. Wow. I didn't think you could do worse than House Ag Chair Rep. Collin Peterson in the -- for lack of a better term -- asshattery department. Apparently, I was mistaken. Labels: farming, food, health, politics There's a lot that's discouraging in part two of the NYT's "Toxic Waters" series. Choosing one's lowlights from a list that includes children whose teeth have been eaten away by contaminated water or who get rashes from their bathwater (not to mention cancer), or whole communities (in America, mind you) that need to have fresh water trucked in is an unpleasant task. Things are, it seems, surprisingly bad and getting worse: [I]n recent years, violations of the Clean Water Act have risen steadily across the nation, an extensive review of water pollution records by The New York Times found. In the last five years alone, chemical factories, manufacturing plants and other workplaces have violated water pollution laws more than half a million times. The violations range from failing to report emissions to dumping toxins at concentrations regulators say might contribute to cancer, birth defects and other illnesses. However, the vast majority of those polluters have escaped punishment. State officials have repeatedly ignored obvious illegal dumping, and the Environmental Protection Agency, which can prosecute polluters when states fail to act, has often declined to intervene. Indeed, the NYT offers a handy map-based guide to water polluters in every state. But you don't really need the map -- the dots of individual polluters are so dense that they make a state-shaped blob of pollution. Sigh. But to me the most discouraging development in the article is learning that, even now, top government officials seem more intent on making excuses than on making change. Here's EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson: "Do critics have a good and valid point when they say improvements need to be made? Absolutely," Ms. Jackson said. "But I think we need to be careful not to do that by scaring the bejesus out of people into thinking that, boy, are things horrible. What it requires is attention, and I'm going to give it that attention." You know what, Ms. Jackson? This article scares the bejesus out of me and it seems pretty clear that things are horrible -- I don't want attention, I want action. Where's the sense of urgency? It's lacking because we seem to have governments at the state and federal level that walk on eggshells around corporations. But I don't think it's only because of corporate campaign contributions -- it due to a far more pernicious reason than that. Ronald Reagan trained a generation of Americans that government was part of the problem. And now even Democrats are mindful of rocking the boat. The only burden that seems to matter is the corporate burden -- we can act, as long as it's okay with the affected industry. It's the "opt-in" approach to regulation. It worked so well in finance and health care. Why not apply it to those pesky environmental laws as well. But action is also lacking because Americans just aren't making much noise on these kinds of issues. Oh, sure, it's easy to find people blind with fury over death panels and our Kenyan-born President. But clean air and water? Meh. I do think it odd that so many people in this country operate under the delusion that a corporation would act in anyone's interest but its own. Yet that does seems to be the assumption of many -- how else to explain the apathy? I once heard it said that no true, major structural reform ever happens until people get out into the street to demand it. The teabaggers were out certainly, for all the good it will do them. But where are the thousands rallying to get heavy metals and industrial chemicals out of our drinking water? Without that kind of presure, backroom dealing and public/private backscratching win the day. The NYT has documented nothing else but a[nother] total regulatory failure -- with most of the backsliding occurring, of course, over the last 8 years. Where Al Gore offered the social security lockbox, George Bush gave us the environmental lockbox -- the place where anonymously quoted EPA officials were instructed to put their clean air and water cases so that polluters campaign contributors could remain unpunished. Ugly, ugly stuff. No wonder no Bush-era EPA administrator had the guts to go on the record for the article. It certainly feels like we're farther than ever from addressing the biggest challenges that face us. Until government (not to mention the media) decides that its job is to be a true counterweight to, rather than an enabler of, corporate American excess, we'll be living in a dirty, unhealthy country.

Blanche Lincoln is now chairman of the Senate Ag Committee. The public policy director for the retrograde American Farm Bureau told The Hill, "We couldn’t have handpicked a chairman better than this." The giant sucking sound you're hearing is agricultural reform rushing down the drain. The headline of The Hill's piece tells you all you need to know: "K Street welcomes Lincoln as the new head of Ag committee" -- K Street being the center of the lobbying biz. If you read on, however, you'll discover all sorts of lovely little Lincolnian tidbits. Did you know that in 2007 Lincoln tried to exempt agribusiness from toxic waste lawsuits? The fact that Tyson Foods, the nation's largest chicken (and chickensh*t) producer, is based in Arkansas and is a major campaign contributor to her is, of course, a total coincidence. Oh, and all that oil and gas money she gets is entirely unrelated to her strident opposition to climate change legislation -- opposition that is so strong, The Hill speculated she could single-handedly derail it. READ THE REST OF THIS POST AT GRIST Food, Meet Income Where the deals are.First came the news that anti-reformer Sen. Blanche Lincoln has taken over the Senate Agriculture Committee. Now, from the US Census Bureau we get even more bad news for those hoping for serious reform of our food system: the Census Bureau announced to day that middle class income is diving. Real median household income fell 3.6 percent between 2007 and 2008, from $52,163 to $50,303. As Felix Salmon of Reuters points out, that $1,800 drop is real money. Oh and I did I mention that the poverty rate is up, too? Salmon also directed attention to David Leonhardt at the NYT who observed that "the typical American household made less money last year than the typical household made a full decade ago." [Emphasis mine] And if you look more closely at the data, it now appears that most middle- and working-class Americans saw their inflation-adjusted incomes drop over the last ten years. American dream, indeed. What does this have to do with food system reform? As both Tom Philpott and I have argued repeatedly: everything. Labels: farming, food, politics Sen. Blanche Lincoln, the Anti-Reformer I posted a piece at The New Republic's The Vine on the implications of Arkansas Sen. Blanche Lincoln's taking up the Senate Ag Committee gavel. Check it out. Though I warn you, the news is not good. Nightmare Scenarios You know, I keep trying to stay away from this stuff, but I can't. Turns out there's a whole new wrinkle on climate change. Once the glaciers melt and all that weight pressing down on the earth's crust lifts, seriously bad things start to happen (via the Guardian): Scientists are to outline dramatic evidence that global warming threatens the planet in a new and unexpected way -- by triggering earthquakes, tsunamis, avalanches and volcanic eruptions. Reports by international groups of researchers -- to be presented at a London conference next week -- will show that climate change, caused by rising outputs of carbon dioxide from vehicles, factories and power stations, will not only affect the atmosphere and the sea but will alter the geology of the Earth. Melting glaciers will set off avalanches, floods and mud flows in the Alps and other mountain ranges; torrential rainfall in the UK is likely to cause widespread erosion; while disappearing Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets threaten to let loose underwater landslides, triggering tsunamis that could even strike the seas around Britain. At the same time the disappearance of ice caps will change the pressures acting on the Earth's crust and set off volcanic eruptions across the globe. Yikes! One would hope this all is far enough off that none of it is baked into the climate (as certain amounts of warming and sea level rise already are). But it certainly means that we need to get our act together ASAP. It also means that we may need to pay a bit more attention to geo-engineering schemes. Not the wacky ones, like giant space shades, of course. But did I mention that someone has invented a magic carbon eating machine, and it's considered one of the best geo-engineering options by UK engineers? Top of their list of practical solutions that would be low-carbon to build and require only existing technologies were artificial trees. These units, invented by Columbia University scientist Klaus Lackner, would be the size of a standard shipping container and could remove CO2 directly from the atmosphere. "100,000 trees would take up an area of around 600 hectares, which is less than 10% of the surface area of the Firth of Forth, and that would be able to absorb the CO2 emissions of the UK's non-power sector annually," said Fox. Currently the UK produces 556 megatonnes of CO2 per year and the 100,000 trees could absorb around 60% of that amount. The engineers calculated that forests of artificial trees powered by renewable energy and located near depleted oil or gas fields, where the trapped CO2 could be buried, would be thousands of times more efficient than planting trees over the same area. Making each artificial tree would require energy and materials but this would only account for 5% of the CO2 that the device could capture in its lifetime. On a global scale, between 5-10m artificial trees could absorb the CO2 emitted from all sources other than power stations. We can't geo-engineer as a replacement for emissions reductions, but if it's tsunamis, volcanoes, landslides and earthquakes, I think we better expect to do a whole lot of both and soon. The good news: Congress is on the case! Oh, wait. No, they're not. Photo credit: National Parks Service Labels: carbon, climate The End of the Dennis Wolff Follies? As some PAers may know, Dennis Wolff, the state Ag Secretary and big, big fan of using artificial growth hormones in milk, recently announced his resignation. Wolff has a reputation as a frighteningly good friend to industrial food producers and a lousy one to Gov. Ed Rendell. Since this was a man whose name had been in the running for the top food safety job at USDA (and at one point, for USDA chief), some in the progressive food policy world were concerned that Wolff's resignation was a precursor to a much-feared presser at USDA HQ in which USDA head Tom Vilsack would hand him the food safety reins. Well, according to Farm and Dairy's twitter feed, Wolff is being true to his word that his departure: "...comes down to having some other opportunities I am interested in exploring right now in the private sector." According to Farm and Dairy, he's taking a job as a lobbyist with Versant Strategies, a PA-based ag lobbying firm. From its website, Versant appears to focus its lobbying efforts on Harrisburg, not Washington. If true, this would be a happy ending indeed. Dennis, we won't miss you one bit. GMO Labels, But for How Long? The good news in the recent NYT article concerning a consortium of food companies that is rolling out a "GMO-Free" label comes in the lede: Alarmed that genetically engineered crops may be finding their way into organic and natural foods, an industry group has begun a campaign to test products and label those that are largely free of biotech ingredients. Yay! GMO labeling is earth-shakingly popular. Some studies demonstrate close to 95% support for such labels among consumers -- how many issues in this country register support like that? But the bad news in the recent NYT article on GMO labeling comes at the end. And it's a doozy: The F.D.A. said it did not have authority to approve labels before they appeared in the marketplace. Once a label is in use, the agency could initiate a review if it received consumer complaints or had concerns the label was misleading. And who might have "concerns" that the label is "misleading"? Big Food, perhaps? There's a lot of history here. The food industry has successfully beaten back GMO labeling efforts in the past. And it's worth noting that, while various products may advertise their status as GMO-free, the "Non-GMO Project" that's behind this new label seeks to standardize the labeling effort across the industry (you know, like real governments do). I found it a bit chilling that the article didn't quote a single representative from one of the major food companies or industry associations. Not typically a group that shrinks from the media, these companies have, no doubt, been advised by their teams of lawyers to keep their traps firmly shut. I wonder how long after the label finally hits the shelves it will be before the injunction against it hits participating companies' doorsteps. Anyone care to wager? The key questions are 1) where will FDA Chief Margaret Hamburg and her number two Josh Sharfstein come down on this debate and 2) where will former Monsanto exec turned FDA food safety advisor Mike Taylor fit in to all this. The success of the labeling campaign hinges on the answers. "Don't Drink Yourself Fat" While the evidence continues to mount that taxes alone aren't enough to significantly reduce junk food consumption, the political prospects for passing a federal soda tax appear to be dim. Well, New York City has decided that if they can't tax your soda, they'll go after your appetite instead. ...New York City's public health officials opened a new front in their struggle against high-calorie beverages on Monday, unveiling an ad campaign that depicts globs of human fat gushing from a soda bottle. "Are you pouring on the pounds?" asks the ad, which urges viewers to consider water, seltzer or low-fat milk instead, and warns: "Don't drink yourself fat." Take a good look at that image, folks.

__label__cc	0.653451	0.346549	Canada’s newest super food The haskap berry is Canada’s newest super food. A delicious, hardy, and anti-oxidant rich berry — with Russian, Japanese and Canadian roots — that has people buzzing about its health-boosting potential and great taste. The Japanese have grown the berry for over 100 years and refer to it as the “fruit of longevity.” Developing a berry for better flavor, yield and size has been a primary focus of University of Saskatchewan Fruit Program Head, Dr. Bob Bors. Dr. Bors started inter-crossing Russian and Japanese varieties. He then began to collect more varieties from around the world including wild plants from across Canada. Today we have the world’s most diverse haskap collection and the largest haskap breeding program. “My idea in breeding was to make haskap suitable for mechanical harvesting and to utilize worthwhile traits found in different haskap from around the world. I wanted to make varieties that ripen at different times so there would be a longer season for people to have them fresh.” says Dr. Bors. Haskap thrives in cold, harsh climates, eliminating the prospect of California mega-farms adopting it as their own. “We’re not going to see any big haskap plantations down in the southern States,” says Axel Hvidberg, past president of the BC Haskap Association. Haskaps can withstand temperatures of -47 Celsius; high exposure to high latitude UV rays and does well in many types of soils. In one word, it is a tough berry, and especially healthy, because it is particularly high in antioxidants and vitamin C. Research shows that foods rich in antioxidants are powerful remedies in the fight against cancer. Dr. Vasantha Rupasinghe, a professor of functional foods at Dalhousie University, compared the total antioxidant content of haskap to blackberry, blueberry, strawberry, raspberry, and red table grape. His research has shown haskap has total antioxidants greater than other berries including blueberries. Haskap polyphenols have also shown the promise to fight against chronic inflammation. Research is in progress to test haskap’s potential to reduce the risk of cancer. Types of Berries Boreal Beast The Boreal Beast is known for its remarkable flavour when fresh or frozen. Boreal Blizzard As one of the largest haskap berries, Boreal Blizzard is known for its sweet and “tangy” flavour. What does it taste like? Haskaps have a unique taste, colour, and look. Their flavor is best described as tart, sweet, and juicy with “melt in your mouth” effect. Some describe the taste as a cross between a blueberry, raspberry, and blackcurrant. With a colour similar to a blueberry, they have their own distinct look.	cc/2022-05/en_middle_0042.json.gz/line36

This trio has proved that this is not always true… As the three musicians interact, a symbiosis is emerging from their different personalities and musical temperament, which makes one plus one plus one far more than three, maybe of another dimension. — Reinier Dozy co-programmer, Sijthoff — Cultuur Pianist Máté Lachegyi, bass player Uldis Vītols and drummer Clemens Lotz endeavour to broaden the boundaries of a piano trio. The core of the trio is the balance between complex composed structures, unusual forms and spontaneous improvisation. ANCOOR walks on the edge of styles and diverse influences, brought in by the members of the band, and creating a constant excitement. Máté’s style is strongly rooted in classical music (especially early, folk and 20th-century music). Uldis comes from the avant-garde scene, which brings a totally different colour into the band, while Clemens’ uses his drumkit almost as a melodic instrument. ANCOOR often finds inspiration from films – the listeners can feel themselves drawn into a motion picture.

The re-based Gross Domestic Product (GDP) places Kenya as the fifth largest economy in Sub-Sahara Africa and ninth in Africa. Although the economy remains small by global standards, it is distinguished from those of most of African countries by the fact that it is one of the most diversified and advance. Low Risk Investment Environment Kenya’s investment climate is the strongest in the EAC, with FDI flowing in from emerging and developed markets and a high volume of multinationals with regional and continent-wide headquarters in the country. In 2013, Kenya was the top destination for international investors in the Eastern Africa Region after attracting 12 private equity deals valued at over USD 110.5 million. Strategic Geographical Location Kenya’s geographical location makes the country ideal for strategic partnerships aimed at improving regional and global market share. Regional connectivity Kenyan infrastructure is the gateway to the vibrant East and Central Africa region and access to the 138 million population i.e. Mombasa ports, Kenya – Uganda railway. International connectivity through Jomo Kenyatta International Airport functions as an effective air hub between Africa, Europe and Asia. As well as Kenya’s membership to regional economic blocs, coupled with her strategic geographic position, makes the country the gateway to the huge EAC and COMESA regional Markets and beneficiary of several trade preferential arrangements. Kenya is a member to several trade arrangements and beneficiary to trade- enhancing schemes that include the Africa Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA), World Trade Organisation and EAC-EU Trade Agreement. Soon there will be Tripartite Free Trade Area (FTA) cooperation, a regional bloc of the EAC, COMESA and SADC nations. Potential market: 600 Million people! Political Stability and Favourable Investment Policy Empowered by a new constitution and administration, the national and county governments are approaching the private sector as a central partner in the development and growth of the Kenyan economy. Improving Infrastructure Kenya’s infrastructure landscape is also undergoing significant transformation as evidenced by commitment of over USD20 billion towards infrastructure development through Public Private Partnerships. Infrastructure Strategy: Increasing investment in infrastructure under PPP arrangements Reducing Cost of Energy and Improving Energy Availability Kenya is also perfectly positioned to unleash Africa’s power generation capacity through its focus on green and cost effective sources of energy, set to contribute to a 5000MW increase in the national power grid. Increasing share of power generated from green and more cost effective sources, with a target to increase electricity generation capacity by 5,000MW from the current 1,644MW to 6,700 MW in 40 months. Large Pool of Labour Force Kenya prides itself in its large pool of highly educated, skilled and sought after work force in Africa trained from within the country and in institutions round the world. It is estimated that over 55% of the Kenyan population is aged between 15 and 64. This means therefore that majority of the population is active and able to provide labour. Well Established Private Sector. Kenya’s private sector is very substantial including a number of foreign investors and is touted as one of the most resilient in the world. Key players in voicing private-sector concerns include: Kenya Private Sector Alliance (KEPSA), Federation of Kenya Employers (FKE) and the Kenya Association of Manufacturers (KAM).

Antimicrobial copper against nosocomial Infections Antimicrobial copper HomeBlogPosts Tagged "Antimicrobial copper" Aerosol and Surface Stability of SARS-CoV-2 as Compared with SARS-CoV-1 To the Editor: A novel human coronavirus that is now named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) (formerly called HCoV-19) emerged in Wuhan, China, in late 2019 and is now causing a pandemic.1 We analyzed the aerosol and surface stability of SARS-CoV-2 and compared it with SARS-CoV-1, the most closely related human coronavirus.2 NikolaosConstruction The Role of Antimicrobial Copper Surfaces in Reducing Healthcare-associated Infections Recent work investigating the antimicrobial characteristics of copper has led to a re-evaluation of the role of this essential metal in healthcare. While ancient civilisations used copper for its health benefits it seems its usefulness has been forgotten. The requirement for evidence-based interventions for infection control has been the driver behind recent scientific assessments of the benefits of copper. Ten years of laboratory research has led to clinical trials confirming a very significant and continuous reduction in environmental bioburden in a number of healthcare settings globally. The newest and most comprehensive clinical research has now reported an impressive 40 % reduction in healthcare-associated infections in intensive care units (ICUs) where copper was incorporated in key touch surfaces. The deployment of copper touch surfaces should be considered as an additional infection control measure to reduce care costs and improve bed availability and patient outcomes.

CLICK HERE to pre-order from the Firesale Store. STAND UP! RECORDS PRESENTS THE FIRST NEW FIRESIGN THEATRE RECORD IN 35 YEARS, “ DOPE HUMOR OF THE SEVENTIES ” Legendary comedy group The Firesign Theatre and Stand Up! Records present a new double-LP compilation, DOPE HUMOR OF THE SEVENTIES: a two-record set including 83 minutes of previously uncollected funny bits from the Firesign Theatre’s notorious “Dear Friends” era of freeform Los Angeles radio broadcasting,1970-1972. The new release includes soon-to-be-classic chunks of surrealism like “Pluto Water”, “Shakespeare Sunday Sunday”, and “Bob Dog Dog & Dog Hot Dog Son & Foot Tires”. DOPE HUMOR OF THE SEVENTIES is an extremely belated sequel to Firesign’s 1972 double-LP “Dear Friends”—a freewheeling demolition derby of old-time radio tropes seen through the subversive lens of Nixon-era Los Angeles freeform radio. The record will be Firesign’s first new vinyl release since “Eat or Be Eaten” in 1985. DOPE HUMOR OF THE SEVENTIES was curated from the giant book/DVD reissue “Duke of Madness Motors”, released in 2011, containing all 80 hours of radio shows from Firesign’s L.A. radio epoch on one data DVD with a 108-page book. The LP contains 34 tracks spread over four record sides. Meanwhile the download version of the record is greatly expanded, and includes 46 tracks totaling two hours 22 minutes. Customers who buy the download directly from Stand Up! Records will also get a 56-page PDF which includes scans of scripts used in the original radio broadcasts. The Firesign Theatre, whose founding members were Philip Austin, Peter Bergman, David Ossman, and Philip Proctor, came together on KPFK-FM in 1966 on Bergman’s program Radio Free Oz. During their time together they released over 35 albums, including “Don’t Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me the Pliers”, called “the greatest comedy album ever made” by Rolling Stone, described by the New York Times as “a multifaceted work of almost Joycean complexity,” and now part of the Library of Congress' National Recording Registry of historic American sound. “So of course we decided to negate all those accolades and bona fides and just call the new record Dope Humor of the Seventies,” says producer Taylor Jessen, who will never work in this town again. Called “The Beatles of Comedy” by The Library of Congress, the four-man Firesign Theatre wrote and performed together for over forty years, but their early studio work (1968-1975) for Columbia Records remains their best known and most influential. Innumerable phrases from their albums have entered the English lexicon: What’s all this brouhaha? More Sugar! What you don’t mean won’t hurt you! Not Insane! Forward Into the Past! Shoes for Industry! Your brain may no longer be the boss! The iconic comic voices of the counter-culture generation, Firesign chronicled pop, politics, media, and technology in a tense one listener called “the Future Inevitable.” The Firesign Theatre has been compared to Kurt Vonnegut, Ken Kesey and Bob Dylan in their original use of language, and to the surrealists in their psychedelic story-telling methods, including the time-and-space altering concept of “channel-switching.” The original albums, intricately produced in multi-track recording, were designed for multiple listenings and meanings—an audio Theatre of the Absurd. The Firesign Theatre’s Peter Bergman passed away in 2012. Philip Austin died in 2015. Remaining Firesigns Phil Proctor and David Ossman have worked since then to preserve the long heritage of their partnership. Their classic scripts were gathered in the book Marching to Shibboleth in 2013. All their major albums are still in print, and two matching volumes preserve their early radio plays (Exorcism In Your Daily Life) and stage plays (Profiles in Barbeque Sauce). A fourth book, Anythynge You Want To, captures three decades of variations of their epic Shakespeare send-up, plus an extensively annotated “scholarly” historical account of the adventures of Ye Olde Firesygne Theatre from 1600 to 2000. Firesign’s Philip Proctor has written an autobiography, Where’s My Fortune Cookie, and co-stars in the podcast and YouTube series “Boomers on a Bench” with comedy partner Jamie Alcroft. Multi-hyphenate David Ossman recently published his second novel, The Flying Saucer Murder Case, and second memoir, Fighting Clowns of Hollywood, featuring a collection of Firesign performance scripts 1979-1981. Several new Firesign reissues are due in 2021. DOPE HUMOR OF THE SEVENTIES is available for order directly from www.StandUpRecords.com and from better record shops everywhere.

Everything They Knew Was Wrong: Firesign Theatre and the Mitchell Brothers Mike Tiano on the unlikely intersection of a Firesign Theatre film and a Long Beach porno theater: "One of the great comedy teams that sprung from the 1960s counterculture is the Firesign Theatre. It was formed around Peter Bergman's show Radio Free Oz on Los Angeles station KPFK, where Phil Austin, David Ossman, and Phil Proctor came into Bergman's orbit and formed a team that created off the wall, improvisational comedy culled from popular culture, historical events, and literary works. Having been influenced by the likes of the Goon Show, Spike Milligan and Bob and Ray, the Firesign Theatre eschewed punchline-based jokes and obvious sketch comedy. Instead what they went on to create could be best described as a cinema of the mind, as evidenced by their side-long (and later album-long) pieces released on LP by Columbia Records throughout the 1970s..." 11/12/13 - Firesign Radio is On The Web!

__label__cc	0.681779	0.318221	DeSR DeSR is a Dependency Shift Reduce parser for multiple languages. It generates dependency parse trees for natural language sentences. The parser has been trained on all the 18 languages of the CoNLL-X Shared task and CoNLL Shared task 2007. Dependency structures are built scanning the input from left to right and deciding at each step whether to perform a shift or to create a dependency between two adjacent tokens. The parser algorithm is deterministic and highly efficient while still achieving state of the art accuracy. More details and the software for download are available at the DeSR Parser Home. DeepNL DeepNL is a Python library for Natural Language Processing based on Deep Learning. The architecture DeepNL is based on SENNA (Semantic Extraction using a Neural Network Architecture). This implemetation also provides the code for training the neural network, which is not included in SENNA. The following applications of the library are included: POS (Part-Of-Speech) tagging, NER (Named Entity Recongnition) and SRL (Semantic Role Labeling). These applications achieve state of the art results just relying on word embeddings, without requiring complex feature extraction or feature tuning. The library contains tools for creating word embeddings from a collection of plain text documents. Three methods are available for creating embeddings: feed forward neural network Hellinger PCA sentiment-specific word embeddings, for use in sentiment analysis The DeepNL software is available for download on GitHub at deepnl. WikiExtractor WikiExtractor is a tool for extracting plain text from Wikipedia dumps. NlpNet This is a Python version of SENNA (Semantic Extraction using a Neural Network Architecture), a library for Natural Language Processing based on Deep Learning. This implemetation also provides the code for training the neural network, which is not included in SENNA. These applications achieve state of the art results just relying on word embeddings, without requiring complex feature extraction or feature tuning. Word Embeddings for several languages to use with the library can be obtained from Polyglot. This branch is rewrite by Giuseppe Attardi) of nlpnet by Eric Fonseca. The software is available for download on GitHub at nlpnet. DgAnnotator The Dependency Grammar Annotator (DGA) is a visual tool for annotating texts with syntactic information according to the formal framework of Dependency Grammars, in particular creating a dependency tree for each sentence, where each work is linked to its head. The tool is useful for generating treebank corpora on which parsers and other NL tools can be trained. The tool reads and produces annotated documents in both XML and CoNLL-X tab separated format. More details and the software for download are available at the DgAnnotator Project Home. LoaMA LoaMA is Personal Media Aggregator, a tool that handles multimedia contents of various types and provides a mechanism that allows users to compose transformers to manipulate RSS feeds. Transformations can be used to create customized playlists, which in turn can be shared among users as feeds. Media aggregators combine the convenience of the RSS information feeds with the capabilities of media sharing and distribution. Personal media aggregators not only provide a way to create, store and distribute thematic content but also allow users to customize the way material is collected, transformed and further distributed. The design of LoaMA is described in the following paper The LOA Customizable Media Aggregator, presented at the Conference Axmedis 2005. is an e-learning system, built on top of LoaCMS. Loacker provides facilities for creating online courses, organizing and publishing the teaching material, course enrollment and timetable, arranging assessment tests. Extensive communcation facilities include forums and real-time conferencing based on the Conference XP libraries. Loa CMS LoaCMS is a Content Management System, fully self-contained, consisting of an Object Store, a Versioning System, an Access Control System, a Web Server, a template language, a Worflow System and a Search Engine. ECoLisp ECoLisp (Embeddable Common Lisp) is an implementation of Common Lisp designed for being embeddable into C based applications. ECL uses standard C calling conventions for Lisp compiled functions, which allows C programs to easily call Lisp functions and viceversa. No foreign function interface is required: data can be exchanged between C and Lisp with no need for conversion. ECL is based on a Common Runtime Support (CRS) which provides basic facilities for memory managment, dynamic loading and dumping of binary images, support for multiple threads of execution. The CRS is built into a library that can be linked with the code of the application. ECL is modular: main modules are the program development tools (top level, debugger, trace, stepper), the compiler, and CLOS. A native implementation of CLOS is available in ECL: one can configure ECL with or without CLOS. A runtime version of ECL can be built with just the modules which are required by the application. The ECL compiler compiles from Lisp to C, and then invokes the GCC compiler to produce binaries. Here you can retrieve the sources of ECoLisp. An updated version is available as ECLS on Sourceforge. Customizable Memory Management The CMM is a memory management facility supporting complex memory intensive applications in C++. The CMM can manage several heaps, each one implementing a different storage discipline. The default heap for collectable objects uses the technique of mostly copying garbage collection, providing good performance and memory compaction. Other available heaps are a temporary heap, and a mark&sweep heap. CMM users can define their own heap classes for the specific storage requirements of their algorithms. Dhere are the CMM sources.

__label__wiki	0.907217	0.907217	Absolute Welcomes Risto Puukko, Patrick Keogh and Rasel Hussain to Growing CG Team Absolute, Wed, Dec 01, 2021 Trio join the CG team at Absolute Post-production studio, Absolute, has appointed three new talents within its rapidly growing CG team. Risto Puukko joins as FX supervisor, Patrick Keogh as CG supervisor and Musharaf ‘Rasel’ Hussain as junior CG artist. The department, spearheaded by Rebekah-King-Britton, has notably expanded this year, as the team continue produce extensive CG elements in collaboration with directors such as Gary Freedman, Otto Bathurst and Andreas Nilsson. Risto originally discovered 3D back as an engineering student, when suddenly CG geometry in CAD software proved more interesting than his degree. He spent the next few years pursuing digital imagery opportunities in his hometown in Finland, before the lack of post-production companies saw him make a permanent move to London, landing a job as a Senior FX Artist. Since then, he’s worked at Framestore, The Mill and Wargaming to name a few, turning his hand to advertising and film projects. He’s worked across campaigns for Netflix, Disney, Tesco and Vodafone, but his greatest career moment so far? “Getting the opening sequence on ‘Guardians of The Galaxy II’ finished on time!” Noted for his impeccable water FX, Risto looks forward to a return to utilising his full arsenal of FX techniques across Absolute’s commercial, film and TV departments. Patrick’s introduction to moving image is a humble tale, involving his father, a flipbook, and his eightyear-old self, full of amazement. He joins Absolute following a four-year tenure at The Mill, and, much like Risto, he’s no stranger to the world of feature films, working as a Motion Capture Artist at Weta for five years prior. He's worked with clients such as Amazon, PlayStation, Dior and Hyundai and lists working as a facial animator on 2014’s ‘Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes’ as a pinch-me moment. “It was the first time I’d been truly mesmerised by the realism and scope of the visual effects our team had created.” Patrick relishes the process of getting a project from the initial concept to the screen and says of his new role: “I can’t wait to meet the team properly and share different approaches to the way we work. I’m excited to diversify my knowledge through the people around me.” Rasel’s interest in visual effects was ignited at a young age. Classic films like ‘Toy Story’, ‘Lord Of The Rings’ and ‘Jurassic Park’ sparked a want to create, and he initially secured a job as a Graphic Designer. However, visual effects was his calling, so he enrolled on a course at renowned visual effects outlet, Escape Studios. He later secured an internship at Framestore through their Launchpad competition, using Unreal Engine to create a 30 second short over eight weeks, before acquiring his first industry role at Absolute. Rasel comments: “I love creating things and watching them come alive. This is a fantastic opportunity for me to learn from and work with some of the best minds in the industry. I feel really privileged to get this opportunity at Absolute, as I have always dreamed about working in this field.” Head of CG, Rebekah King-Britton, concludes: “I’m delighted about our newest team members.

The Acting Director-General of NAFDAC, Mr Ademola Mogbojuri, said this on Wednesday in Enugu, during the South-East Stakeholders Consultative Forum on Implementation of Executive Order on Ease of Doing Business in Nigeria. Mogbojuri, said that the essence of the forum was to find ways to resolve complaints against the agency and tackle the problems producers face in establishing their own businesses. The acting director-general was represented by the agency’s Director of Special Duties, Dr Abubakar Jimoh. He said that the agency was concerned about the growth of small businesses and willing to help young entrepreneurs to start businesses and create more jobs for Nigerians. “We have recently directed 50 per cent reduction of registration of products for companies with five or less than five employees while reducing registration time to 90 days for all MSMEs. “NAFDAC has established Small Business Support Desk (SBSD) to guide small businesses through registration processes and also serve as inquiry point for small businesses on regulatory issues. “Also, we now have electronic submission of documents to line Directorates in Lagos as well as NAFDAC Product Registration Outreach (NPRO). “This is to provide interactive engagement and advice on documentation, labeling and other requirements so as to facilitate the registration process. “Fees charged for registration of locally manufactured products are lower than those charged for imported products. The Agency is always discouraging the use of consultants by companies,’’ Mogbojuri said. Earlier, the Enugu State Coordinator of the agency, Mr Chike Obiano, said that the consultative forum would be sustained and made more frequent because of its importance. “NAFDAC is committed to zero tolerance on fake drugs, unwholesome processed food and sub-standard regulated products,” he said. He noted that the agency could not effectively discharge its statutory responsibilities without the collaborative efforts of critical stakeholders, and appealed for the cooperation of the residents. More than 200 producers participated in the forum.

__label__wiki	0.625916	0.625916	Home Uncategorized PlayStation 4’s next firmware update will be welcomed by Twitch streamers PlayStation 4’s next firmware update will be welcomed by Twitch streamers Update: PlayStation's previously leaked 5.00 software update has arrived and, as expected, it's brought good news for Twitch streamers in the form of 1080p 60fps streaming. There's also some nice additions for fans of eSports, including Team Tournaments. This feature can be found in the events section of your main PS4 menu and allows you to put together teams (up to 60 of them) to compete for prizes and status. At the moment the only games which support Team Tournaments are Uncharted 4, Uncharted: Lost Legacy, World of Tanks and Mantis Burn Racing. However, PlayStation has said more titles will be added soon. As detailed in the leak and beta release, there are also some new follower, messaging, privacy and family safety features to explore. To be honest, though, the most convenient change is the ability to turn off pop up notifications while you're watching video. That's the kind of focus on the entertainment experience we like to see. Original article continues below… Though we don’t know when exactly it’ll be it is inevitable that there’s going to be a 5.0 firmware update for the PlayStation 4 and details of what changes it’s going to bring have been leaked online. Eurogamer, which claims to have secured a copy of the release notes, reports that 1080p 60 fps streaming via Twitch will be supported for PS4 Pro owners in this new update. This adds another 1080p exclusive to the Pro, which already supports 1080p Remote and Share Play. Another big change, for all PS4 owners rather than just Pro owners, is that it’ll be possible to follow any user account and not just verified and official accounts. This brings PlayStation’s following system more in line with the Xbox One’s and Sony say the decision has been made to “encourage more sharing of content and more interactions” among users and “boost the viral potential of UGC” for developers. Of course, allowing players to interact with anyone means privacy controls will have to be improved. As a result it’ll be also possible for players to decide if they want anyone to be able to follow them or whether they want the option to only be available to their existing friends. It’ll also be possible to block users entirely. Continuing on the theme of increased security, changes will also be made to the console’s account system. Now if you have sub or child accounts on your main console you’ll be able to create a family account in which adult accounts will be able to act in a parent/guardian role and set parental controls on an account-by-account basis. That means if you have children of a wide range of ages with accounts on the same console you can appropriately tailor their communication, content and spending permissions. A new web application will also be released to manage these family accounts, meaning you won’t have to be on the console itself to access the parental controls and will be able to do so from your PC or smartphone. Finally, there’ll be a multitude of smaller changes such as making system notifications and upload/download statuses visible from the Quick Menu so you don’t need to trek back to your Home screen when you want to check on them. As well as these push notifications for events will be introduced, spectator comments will appear on screen when broadcasting in VR mode and there’ll be support for 7 more languages. At the moment, Sony hasn’t confirmed these details or confirmed an official release date for the 5.0 firmware but Eurogamer reports that it’ll be launched in the near future alongside an overhauled and improved Playstation App. These are the best PS4 games you can get right now GTA Online: take to the skies in latest Adversary Mode with the .50 caliber turret packing Mammoth Mogul Tesla electric semi truck possibly spied in new photo nevada ban hydroxychloroquine Appreciation to my father who informed me about this blog, this weblog is in fact remarkable. http://hydroxychloroquined.online/ how to take keflex 500mg Piece of writing writing is also a excitement, if you be acquainted with after that you can write if not it is difficult to write. http://antiibioticsland.com/Cephalexin.htm priligy usa sale At this time it appears like WordPress is the preferred blogging platform out there right now.
