Reasons Why People Absolutely Love The Toshiba Protege R705 ...

March 30, 2012 Sally News,

Have you ever heard of the Toshiba Protege R705-P35 Notebook? It is an affordable computer with a variety of functions. As with any new laptop computer, they are usually priced at $2000 or more. But the R705-P35 is quite capable of taking care of the computing needs of a significant market sector for much less. You have to know what you want to do with a laptop, or notebook, when considering a new purchase. Don?t forget that your mobile computing needs also need to be considered in this purchasing equation. If you do, then you can avail yourself to solid mobile broadband reliability and the reputation of Intel processing power with the Toshiba Protege R705-P35. This can be a handy item that I actually have procured, along with IPad 2 cases and covers, and designer iPad cases and covers combined with iPad 2 back cover.

This particular computer, the Protege R705-P35 is extremely lightweight and portable to boot. The lightweight outer shell of this Toshiba computer is made with magnesium alloy, the choice of many companies that are creating lighter computers every year. Magnesium alloy is actually a very strong material, so even though it is extremely lightweight, it is hard to damage or break. You will have a lot of computing power due to the high-tech microelectronic processor that will be within the lightweight notebook itself. The R705-P35 uses an Intel Core i3-370M processor which is just a step down from the top. However, if you do regular computer work, we challenge you to notice any difference between the i3-370M and what is used in Sony or HP models that cost more. The technological components within the Protege R705-P35 are more than enough to make most people happy that actively use a computer everyday. There are actually two processors within this computer: the iMAX mobile processor that allows you to access broadband Internet and the other, the Intel?s Core i3-370M, operates the system itself. You can enhance your shared graphics memory by adding a 64 MB or a 1696 MB chip. The unit also has 4 GB of DDR3 RAM (running at 1066 MHz) built right in. You will definitely be happy with the Protege R705-P35 based upon the functions that will provide and a price that you will be able to afford.

If you enjoy using technology like WiMAX wireless broadband and WiDi, you?ll love the Prot?g? R705-P35. It is because this computer comes equipped with Netgear Push2TV adapter that linking these two features is a reality. This dual capability allows you to use your television as a computer monitor and also watch movies on your TV. Combined with WiMAX technology, and accessing the 4G wireless network, you can do this very easily with a couple keystrokes. Both Clearwire and Sprint in the United States provide WiMAX ? right now it is in about 50 or more different cities.

All in all, we were quite pleased with the Toshiba Protege R705-P35 Notebook for the relative low price. This computer has many strong points, making a great laptop to consider for everyday use. Despite all of this, it is a great portable notebook for everyday use. Overall, we are very happy with the capabilities of this particular notebook including its mobile broadband capabilities and storage space.

2 feared dead in Bellingham, Wash., marina fire

BELLINGHAM, Wash. (AP) ? Investigators believe two people missing after a large fire ripped through a marina in northwest Washington state were trapped aboard a burning boat that sank during the blaze.

The fire destroyed much of a dock at the Bellingham marina early Friday. It was difficult to fight because of its size, and crews didn't have a fire boat, Fire Department Assistant Chief Roger Christensen said.

The city decommissioned an old fire boat last year and didn't replace it because of the cost.

"We were unsuccessful in securing funds to replace it," Christensen said. "We could have used it today."

There was no early indication of the fire's cause.

Authorities identified the missing people as 43-year-old Jim Langei and 33-year-old Sterling Taylor.

Police Sgt. Shawn Aiumu said there was a call from the boat on which the two lived when the fire broke out. He said divers will try to search the boat, but doing so will be dangerous because of the amount of debris in the water.

"The whole thing collapsed on the boats," Aiumu said. "It's just a mess."

"We got a portion of a call from the boat," he said. There's a high probability they were trapped."

As many as 10 vessels were in the private boathouse at the marina at the Port of Bellingham when the fire was reported around 5:30 a.m. Flames had spread to several boats when firefighters arrived, and eventually the roof collapsed. No firefighters were injured.

The boathouse and the vessels were a total loss. Officials couldn't tell Friday afternoon exactly how many boats were inside, but they likely had several hundred gallons of fuel on board.

Port of Bellingham spokeswoman Marie Duckworth said port employees immediately deployed booms to contain spilled fuel. The Coast Guard and state Ecology Department were overseeing the cleanup, which is expected to take several days.

Fuel tank explosions could be heard as thick, black plumes of smoke rose from the marina and drifted into Bellingham, The Bellingham Herald reported.

One witness, Mike Allsop, told the Herald most of the vessels were high-end fiberglass pleasure boats about 40 feet in length.

When Bellingham officials were considering selling the fire boat Fire Belle last year, Fire Chief Bill Boyd was reluctant and said it was necessary to provide basic fire and emergency medical services, the Herald reported.

City officials said the boat was not getting enough use to justify the cost of about $30,000 a year.

Mayor Kelli Linville, who has been in office since January, said the decision not to have a fire boat was made before she assumed the job. She said it would ultimately be a City Council decision whether to now replace it.

"Part of the investigation will be whether a fire boat would've helped with this tragedy," she told The Associated Press. "Right now we want to just find out what happened."

Fossil raindrop impressions imply greenhouse gases loaded early atmosphere

ScienceDaily (Mar. 28, 2012) ? In ancient Earth history, the sun burned as much as 30 percent dimmer than it does now. Theoretically that should have encased the planet in ice, but there is geologic evidence for rivers and ocean sediments between 2 billion and 4 billion years ago.

Scientists have speculated that temperatures warm enough to maintain liquid water were the result of a much thicker atmosphere, high concentrations of greenhouse gases or a combination of the two.

Now University of Washington researchers, using evidence from fossilized raindrop impressions from 2.7 billion years ago to deduce atmospheric pressure at the time, have demonstrated that an abundance of greenhouse gases most likely caused the warm temperatures.

Their work, which has implications for the search for life on other planets, is published March 28 in Nature.

"Because the sun was so much fainter back then, if the atmosphere was the same as it is today the Earth should have been frozen," said lead author Sanjoy Som, a postdoctoral researcher at NASA's Ames Research Center, Mountain View, Calif., who conducted the research as part of his UW doctoral work in Earth and space sciences.

He and his coauthors -- David Catling and Roger Buick of UW Earth and space sciences; Jelte Harnmeijer, a UW graduate now at the Edinburgh Centre for Low Carbon Innovation in Scotland; and Peter Polivka, a UW graduate student in civil engineering -- set out to determine how the ancient atmosphere differed from that of today.

Knowing the atmospheric pressure of a given period can help scientists understand in better detail the overall nature of the atmosphere at that time. For example, substantially higher pressure would be needed for a phenomenon called "pressure broadening," which allows existing greenhouse gases to absorb more radiation and warm the planet. That has been speculated as a reason for the warmer conditions on ancient Earth.

But precise measurements of atmospheric pressure date only from the invention of the barometer in 1644. The new work allowed the scientists to determine limits of ancient air pressure by comparing raindrop impressions from today with the fossilized impressions from a time when there were no plants or animals on Earth but the planet was teeming with microbes.

The sizes of raindrop impressions depend on raindrop velocity, the atmospheric pressure and the composition of material into which the raindrops fall. Previous research has shown that at Earth's surface raindrops won't exceed a little more than a one-quarter inch in diameter. That also is the largest a raindrop could have been to create the largest fossilized impressions, regardless of the atmospheric pressure.

Those large raindrops in today's atmosphere fall at about 30 feet per second, but if the ancient atmosphere was thicker that speed would have been lower and the maximum size of imprints left behind would be smaller.

Buick and Harnmeijer poured latex over the raindrop impressions in fossilized volcanic ash found in South Africa, then returned the latex peels to Seattle, where high-precision laser scanning produced detailed measurements.

Meanwhile, to get a measure of raindrop impressions under present-day atmospheric pressure, Som and Polivka used a pipette to release varying sizes of water drops down an open stairwell into recent volcanic ash collected from Hawaii and Iceland, held in a tray nearly 90 feet below. The ash was of similar composition to the rock in which the fossilized raindrop imprints were found. The scientists used liquid plastic and hair spray to harden the impressions, which then were scanned with lasers and the scans compared to the impressions from South Africa.

In comparing the raindrop impressions, Som determined that, if the biggest imprints were formed by the largest raindrops, the atmospheric pressure 2.7 billion years ago could have been no more than twice what it is today. But the largest possible raindrops are extremely rare, he said, so it is very likely that the pressure was the same, or even lower, than it is today. That would favor a buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere to explain a warmer Earth, rather than the effect of pressure broadening.

Som, who earned a master's degree in aeronautics and astronautics before switching his emphasis to Earth and space sciences in the UW's astrobiology program, said the finding could prove important in the search for life on planets orbiting other stars, called exoplanets. That's because the Earth of 2.7 billion years ago was very different from what we know today, and yet it too supported abundant life in the form of microbes.

"Setting limits on atmospheric pressure is the first step towards understanding what the atmospheric composition was then. Knowing this will double the known data points that we have for comparison to exoplanets that might support life," he said.

"Today's Earth and the ancient Earth are like two different planets," he said.

The research was funded by NASA, the UW Department of Earth and Space Sciences and the European Commission's Coordination Action for Research Activities on Life in Extreme Environments.

Judge blocks importation of drug used in execution

WASHINGTON (AP) ? A federal judge on Tuesday blocked the importation of a drug used in executions on grounds the Food and Drug Administration ignored the law in allowing it into this country.

U.S. District Judge Richard Leon sided with lawyers for death row inmates in Tennessee, Arizona and California who want to keep out sodium thiopental, because it is an unapproved drug manufactured overseas. The Obama administration argued it had discretion to allow unapproved drugs into the U.S.

But Leon said the FDA's actions were "contrary to law, arbitrary, capricious, and an abuse of discretion." He said that plain language of the law says that an article that appears to be misbranded or unapproved "shall be refused admission."

Leon scolded the agency: "Put simply, this appears to be nothing more than the FDA, once again, stubbornly clinging to every last ounce of its discretionary authority!"

Sodium thiopental is an anesthetic used to put inmates to sleep before other lethal drugs are administered. The drug's U.S. manufacturer announced last year that it would no longer produce it, which forced corrections officials to delay many executions. Many of the nation's 34 death penalty states switched to an alternative drug, pentobarbital ? a point Leon stressed.

In addition to blocking the FDA from allowing the drug into the country, Leon also ordered the FDA to immediately notify any state correctional departments with foreign-manufactured thiopental that its use is prohibited by law, and that the drug must be returned to the FDA.

A lawyer for the death row challengers, Brad Berenson, said in an email that "it was especially gratifying that the court recognized that even the most despised members of our society are entitled to the protections Congress gave to all Americans in the Food Drug and Cosmetic Act."

The FDA declined to comment on the ruling or say whether it planned to appeal.

Leon, who was appointed by President George W. Bush, dismissed the FDA's contention that the death row inmates lacked standing.

"Here, the threatened injury ? that unapproved foreign thiopental will fail to anesthetize plaintiffs properly during execution, causing conscious suffocation, pain, and cardiac arrest ? is, to say the least, severe," the judge wrote. "Indeed, few in our society are more vulnerable than a death row inmate facing lethal injection."

Leon also said that the FDA was undermining its own policy of maintaining a closed drug distribution system designed to keep dangerous drugs out of U.S. commerce.

"By opening up the 'closed' drug system by allowing an unapproved drug ? thiopental ? into the United States, defendants jeopardize their own system and threaten the public health by creating a risk that thiopental could incorrectly end up in the hands of the general public," he wrote.

For Sale By Owner | Inside the Beltline

Times are tough and many of us are looking for different ways to save money. ?We?re driving less, clipping coupons and even cooking more meals at home. ?This brings me to ? For Sale By Owner homes ? FSBO?s. ?Is this Do-It-Yourself project really worth it?

First of all, only licensed Real Estate Agents are permitted to list on the Multiple Listing Service. ?This greatly reduces exposure for the listing. ?FSBO?s are locked out of many other home searching websites such as Realtor.com?also. ?MLS is vital in terms of exposure for a listing.

Pricing can be tricky also. ?A real estate agent can provide an update on market conditions, an assessment of the likely selling price of the home and tips for improving the home?s buyer appeal. Overpricing a FSBO home is a sure way to deter potential buyers. Having professional advice can help prevent this.

Many buyers feel intimidated when the seller is present and will spend less time in a for sale by owner home. ?Buyers may be less inclined to make an offer if they know that they will be negotiating directly with the seller also. ?Agents can help by providing an emotional buffer for the seller and potential buyer.

Real estate agents can help prevent potential liability for unwary sellers also. ?Many sellers may be unaware of various disclosure requirements mandated by the state. ?Working with a licensed agent ?would alleviate the owner of having sole responsibility of keeping up with the ever changing laws that vary by state.

So is it really worth it to try and sell your home without a real estate professional? ?I?ll let you decide. ?For more information on all the services offered and how I can help you market and sell your home, please do not hesitate to contact me. ?I would be glad to answer any questions you might have.

Study by NOAA and partners shows some Gulf dolphins severely ill

UME, NRDA studies on-going

Bottlenose dolphins in Barataria Bay, Louisiana, are showing signs of severe ill health, according to NOAA marine mammal biologists and their local, state, federal and other research partners.

Barataria Bay, located in the northern Gulf of Mexico, received heavy and prolonged exposure to oil during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

Based on comprehensive physicals of 32 live dolphins from Barataria Bay in the summer of 2011, preliminary results show that many of the dolphins in the study are underweight, anemic, have low blood sugar and/or some symptoms of liver and lung disease. Nearly half also have abnormally low levels of the hormones that help with stress response, metabolism and immune function.

Researchers fear that some of the study dolphins are in such poor health that they will not survive. One of these dolphins, which was last observed and studied in late 2011, was found dead in January 2012.

NOAA and its local, state and federal partners started the Barataria Bay dolphin study in 2011 as part of the Natural Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA), the process for studying the effects of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

NOAA is sharing the preliminary results from the study so that stranding responders and veterinarians can better care for live stranded dolphins and look for similar health conditions.

Investigation of Dolphin Strandings in the Northern Gulf Continues

Since February 2010, more than 675 dolphins have stranded in the northern Gulf of Mexico (Franklin County, Florida, to the Louisiana/Texas border)a much higher rate than the usual average of 74 dolphins per year, prompting NOAA to declare an Unusual Mortality Event (UME) and investigate the cause of death for as many of the dolphins as possible. The vast majority of stranded dolphins have been found dead; however, 33 have stranded alive and seven have been taken to facilities for rehabilitation.

In the spring, it is typical to see some newborn, fetal and stillborn dolphins strand, and there has been an increase in strandings of this younger age class during this UME in 2010 and 2011. Yet all age classes continue to strand at high levels. NOAA is working with a team of marine mammal health experts to investigate the factors that may be contributing to the dolphin mortalities.

Gulf Seafood Safety

Since the 2010 oil spill, the Food and Drug Administration, NOAA and the Gulf Coast states have used an agreed-upon protocol to test seafood and ensure that it is free of harmful oil and dispersant residues. NOAA opened federal waters to fishing after extensive testing, and the Gulf states continue to use the protocol to routinely test finfish and shellfish to ensure all seafood reaching the consumer is safe. Some waters in the northern Barataria Basin, a larger area that includes Barataria Bay, remain closed to commercial fishing, as visible oil is still present along the shoreline where the closures are in place. The joint protocol directs seafood safety testing to begin only after visible oil is gone.

NOAA and its state and federal partners are researching multiple ways Gulf dolphins may have been exposed to oil, including through ingestion, inhalation or externally. Dolphins could have routinely ingested oil from sediments or water while feeding or by eating whole fish, including internal organs and fluids such as liver and bile, which can harbor chemical contaminants. These are not likely routes of exposure for most people.

Venture Capital Investment | JeyamArticle - Business & Finance

The companies that offer new ideas and technology in various fields are examples of these new ventures.These upcoming companies that have a fresh product or service to offer are highly risky due to lack of experience in their chosen industry. The financial growth of these companies is the reason why a venture capitalist would want to invest in them. The investors are not involved in the everyday transactions of the venture but are monitoring how the business is progressing. Not unless the business life has come to end, the investment is usually not yet returned to the investor which is on several occasions through a preferred stock.

Essentially, the process for venture capital investment is all about maximizing rewards while minimizing risks. The partners should have access to a number of venture capitalists in order for them to gain exposure. The business owners should prepare a detailed feasibility report on the Technical, Financial, Managerial, Marketing and Socio-economic stating the characteristics of the service or product.

For most Venture Capital Funds, a span of not more than 5 years is the investing cycle, after which, investments are focused on expansions and managing the company?s portfolio.On most occasions, the business owners who run the new venture are the reason why an investor would want to put in money for the company. In addition to that, making a bond or relationship with capital investors are a vital component for the business owners.

The second step in the process is the preliminary evaluation. A thought out review of the report from the business owner is done to ensure it reliability. Following the preliminary evaluation is to make a well made approval report and an analysis for the risk and benefits of the new venture. The new business must obtain the customer?s needs and wants with regards to the product or service they are selling.

Venture capital firms should anticipate this by diversifying or spreading their investments and hope that their successful investments recompense for the losses.An official union is made between the capitalist and the business owners to ensure their duties and responsibilities. The last process of venture capital investment would be monitoring the project and on some occasions make post investment support to the new business. This would ensure the continuity of the project to build its momentum to greater heights.

Presbyterian court weighs property battle in California

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A Presbyterian court, in a case with implications for dozens of congregations exiting a denomination divided over homosexuality, convened on Thursday to decide if a California parish may break away with property worth millions of dollars.

Testimony began before the Synod of the Pacific, consisting of ministers and church elders from throughout the West, on a case stemming from a decision by the Community Presbyterian Church of Danville, an affluent San Francisco suburb, to join a more conservative denomination.

A San Francisco-area church governing body agreed in 2010 to allow the Danville congregation to keep real estate that had been appraised at nearly $14 million after its parishioners voted to split from the mainline Presbyterian Church U.S.A.

Critics of the move, however, have argued that the regional governing body lacked authority to approve the property transfer.

"We are here today because we believe the Presbytery of San Francisco has made an unauthorized gift of property," Joan Blackstone, a retired lawyer and church elder who represents opponents of the property transfer, said in opening statements.

Thursday's trial highlights deep divisions within the parent church and its 2 million members, as well as other mainstream Protestant denominations, over the ordination of gay clergy and blessing of same-sex unions.

Although it does not allow ministers to perform same-sex marriages, the Presbyterian Church allows its ministers to bless gay unions.

The synod's trial, held in a hotel banquet room near the San Francisco Airport, will decide whether the presbytery properly used the church's so-called "gracious-dismissal" policy to allow the Danville parish to leave with its buildings and more than 7 acres of land held in trust for the Presbyterian Church U.S.A.

The committee of local ministers "considered, prayed about it and decided the buildings should continue to be used by the Danville congregation as they continue to do God's work," the Rev. Joan Huff, a San Francisco minister who represents the presbytery, told the tribunal. "Grace is not always fair. Grace cannot be monetized. It cannot be bought, earned or won."

"It if could, it would cease to be grace," she said.

Blackstone urged the 10 commissioners hearing the case to consider the impact of their decision on church groups throughout the nation struggling with how to divide property.

OPENED CLERGY TO HOMOSEXUALS

The Presbyterian Church U.S.A. formally opened the ranks of its clergy to homosexuals last spring in a move that triggered a schism, prompting some opposed to gay clergy to form a new denomination, the Evangelical Covenant Order of Presbyterians.

The Presbyterian Church's pension board further alienated some conservative congregants this month by approving benefits for same-gender partners and their children starting next year.

Upset over differences in biblical interpretation of social issues, including questions of gay life and abortion, the Danville congregation began separating from the parent church in 2010.

They want to join yet another offshoot denomination, the Evangelical Presbyterian Church. That church believes "unrepentant homosexual behavior is incompatible with the ordination vows."

"This case is going to establish a precedent of sorts in the minds of people in this denomination," Blackstone said in her opening trial statement. "It's going to be considered by congregations as they request to be dismissed."

The Kentucky-based denomination has endured other splits in its history, including schisms over slavery and the ordination of women. But the Rev. Gradye Parsons, the highest-ranking official in the church general assembly, said some congregations that have left the fold during the past 20 years have rejoined.

"I think it's sad that people are leaving," he said. "I see it more as a separation than a divorce and hope someday we can be reconciled."

The Danville church, founded in 1865, consists of about 1,800 members.

The Rev. Scott Farmer, the church's senior pastor, served on a task force charged with writing the "gracious-dismissal" policy, Blackstone said. She questioned whether Farmer had a conflict of interest when the Danville church was the first to ask to be dismissed under the policy.

Farmer could not be reached for comment.

A website for the Presbyterian Lay Committee, a conservative advocacy group, listed 35 congregations that had started the process of separating from the denomination since July. The First Presbyterian Church in Colorado Springs, with more than 4,000 members, is the largest to take part in the exodus.

The synod is expected to issue a written decision next week.

Secure Penny Stocks | PennyStocks123.Com

Mar23

Posted by admin in Penny Stocks

If you do not have much money and you want to invest in stock, should consider penny stocks. Penny stocks are a very cheap kind of stock and this makes it possible for as many people as possible to invest into it. Anyone who does not have enough money to pump into any of the giant stocks can always look up a penny stock to invest into. Many individuals are already getting involved in it and they are also making something tangible out of it. Several negative opinions had already been voiced out about this form of investment. But this has never stopped those who are making money out of it from carting away profits. You too should take the risk and join the bandwagon; you too may end up smiling to the bank through penny stock.

Some tidbits

Penny stock does not cost much to invest in. In fact, it does not cost you more than about $5 to invest into it. There are several penny stocks out there that do not even cost up to $5. This does not in any way mean that you will not be able to make considerable profit when you invest into it. The companies that are offering penny stocks have net worth up to $5 million. There are also some other companies that may not have such worth. Any company with a higher net worth than $5 million does not belong to the group in penny stock. The limited worth of such companies does not in anyway affect the profitability of the penny stock you buy from them.

A company requires more than just $5 million to become part of the official stock exchange. Aside the issue of money, there are other requirements that a company needs to meet before it can be accepted as part of the stock exchange. If a company can?t meet up with the requirements, it is automatically counted among the companies under penny stock. This should not in anyway be seen as any limitation on the affected company. Investing in them does not in anyway mean that you will not be able to make something tangible out of your investment at the end of the day.

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission actually takes lots of interest in the penny worth companies. Regulations are made available to be followed by these companies and any company that does not follow such regulations are generally tagged by the SEC. this will give any investor the red light so that he or she will not make the mistake of investing in such a stock. Any investor that invests with such a company will do so at his or her own risk.

The intervention of the SEC actually turns the penny stock to a secure penny stock. This ensures that your investment will never be tampered with for any reason; with the strong arm of the SEC, you can sleep with you two eyes closed after you must have invested into the penny stock made available by that company.

As part of the moves of the SEC to make the penny stock as secured as possible, it makes it a point of must for companies offering penny stock to carry their clients long. Every broker is also instructed to make a statement available to their clients. The statement is expected to guide the client on how profitable or otherwise any particular penny stock will be for them. The statement will also enlighten the client on how risky the investment he is about to make is. Any decision that the client makes based on the statement offered by the broker is then a complete responsibility of the client in question. But the broker is under compulsion to ensure that the information is complete and plain enough.

This move by the SEC turns the penny stock to a secured investment. It removes the possibility of any company trying to rob you of your hard earned money. Any broker will not be able to take advantage of your lack of information. The move actually makes information available to you and you may be as informed as the broker himself. This will make it easy for you to invest without much worry.

The issue of secure penny stocks needs to be closely looked into. The regulations of the SEC on the companies do not actually give a complete reliability in your investment into penny stock. Penny stock investment is still very risky. Many of the companies involved in it are newly registered companies. Do not forget that their financial basis is not higher than $5 million. This means that the company may not have strong financial backbone to bear any financial problem. The amount such companies charge per share is also not more than $5. Some companies actually charge less than this. You need to put all these factors into consideration before you venture into penny stocks.

Many of the companies in penny stock are lightly regulated by the SEC. This may affect the security of your investment. Such a thing can also mean that you may lose all your investment after you have invested into any of the companies under penny stock. When you are dealing with any stockbroker, you should carefully look into the information the stockbroker is presenting to you. If the stockbroker tells you only the sweet part of penny stock and only about secure penny stock, you need to be wary of such a stockbroker. A stockbroker that is plain completely will tell you the truth of the whole thing. He will not hesitate to make all the risks known to you. You can put you trust in such a stockbroker.

Conclusion

Penny stocks do appreciate in value. But in most cases, they rarely appreciate as much as larger stocks. Any company among the penny stock companies should never be expected to give you a high yield of your investment. This situation is highly affected by the capital base of the company and the amount you are investing, so arm yourself with the right information and the right broker before embarking on this investment opportunity.

Far higher potential for wind energy in India than previously estimated

ScienceDaily (Mar. 21, 2012) ? A new assessment of wind energy in India by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has found that the potential for on-shore wind energy deployment is far higher than the official estimates -- about 20 times and up to 30 times greater than the current government estimate of 102 gigawatts. This landmark finding may have significant impact on India's renewable energy strategy as it attempts to cope with a massive and chronic shortage of electricity.

"The main importance of this study, why it's groundbreaking, is that wind is one of the most cost-effective and mature renewable energy sources commercially available in India, with an installed capacity of 15 GW and rising rapidly," says Berkeley Lab scientist Amol Phadke, the lead author of the report. "The cost of wind power is now comparable to that from imported coal and natural gas-based plants, and wind can play a significant role in cost effectively addressing energy security and environmental concerns."

Even if the previously estimated potential of 102 GW is fully developed, wind would provide only about 8 percent of the projected electricity demand in 2022 and 5 percent in 2032. The new Berkeley Lab study has found the total techno-economic wind potential to range from 2,006 GW for 80-meter hub heights (an indication of how high the wind turbine stands above the ground) to 3,121 GW for 120-meter hub heights. Given these new estimates, the availability of wind energy can no longer be considered a constraint for wind to play a major role in India's electricity future.

Phadke and his team have been discussing their findings informally and formally with several key government agencies in India and have gotten positive responses. "The key agency in charge, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), has now signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Berkeley Lab to collaborate on several issues related to potential estimates and wind energy integration," said Jayant Sathaye, who leads the International Energy Studies Group at Berkeley Lab.

Ranjit Bharvirkar, a senior consultant at Itron Inc. and one of the other authors of the study, said part of the motivation for reassessing India's wind potential came from recent reassessments of wind potential in the United States and China. Both found substantial increases over the previous assessments -- a ten-fold jump in China and a 50 percent increase in capacity in the United States and 400 percent by energy. Improved wind technology, including higher efficiency and hub heights, accounted for much of the increase along with more advanced mapping techniques.

The previous wind potential estimate in India of 102 GW is based on the assumption that only two percent of the windy land is available for wind power development. However, this assumption is not based on any assessment of land availability. The Berkeley Lab study undertook a systematic assessment of the availability of land using publicly available GIS (geographic information system) data on topography and land use and found a significantly higher availability of land that can potentially be used for wind power development, which is the primary reason for the higher potential estimates.

The study excluded land with low-quality wind, slopes greater than 20 degrees, elevation greater than 1,500 meters and certain other unsuitable areas such as forests, bodies of water and cities. The researchers obtained off-the-shelf wind speed data for heights of 80 meters, 100 meters and 120 meters from 3TIER.

The study also finds that the total footprint required to develop high-quality wind energy (that is, wind turbines at 80 meters with a capacity factor greater than 25 percent, which would yield a potential of about 543 GW in India) is approximately 1,629 square kilometers, or 0.05 percent of the total land area in India. The footprint is not large because, typically, only about 3 percent of a wind farm is occupied by the wind turbines and related infrastructure; the rest of the land can be used for other purposes.

The study was funded by the ClimateWorks Foundation through a contract with the Regulatory Assistance Project. Engineers from Itron Inc. and Black and Veatch contributed to the report.

Natural Good Health is All About Supporting Your Immune System ...

Natural good health is all about supporting your body?s best efforts. Your body has innate wisdom. Everything it does, every symptom it throws out, is an attempt to restore balance. Although it can sometimes seem as if it is putting you in danger, it never does.

For example, a high fever is an excellent sign that you have a strong immune system. One that is working very efficiently to expel an invading pathogen. Yes, it does need to be monitored. But the best treatment is no treatment. Or homeopathic treatment which works by supporting your immune system.

Another example is asthma. Frightening though the serious symptoms of asthma can be, before the use of cortisone, there were no recorded deaths. The cortisone treatment changed that. Now, it is possible to die from asthma.

In the first example, the strong immune system was able to prevent entry of an invading pathogen. In the second example, the asthma attack achieved what the body needed ? more carbon dioxide. The only way your body can receive more carbon dioxide is to stop you breathing for a few seconds or a minute or two.

By preventing the high fever, a pathogen invades successfully. By allowing normal breathing, your body carbon dioxide levels remain too low to allow a healthy recovery.

Once you understand and appreciate that your body does have wisdom, and that signs and symptoms are there to be treated with understanding, then you can start to move towards natural good health.

A strong immune system should always be your aim. Armed with this, your natural good health will know no bounds. You?ll hardly get sick and when you do, you will recover quickly.

Some modalities work by suppressing your immune system. This will always take to towards more sickness.

So how do you support your natural immunity?

There are many ways and all aspects should be addressed:

* a healthy diet
* regular exercise
* regular time for you
* regular relaxing time, where you can stop and ?smell the roses?
* regular exposure to the natural sun
* emotional freedom ? your own natural expression and allowing others the same
* only use health or emotional disorder treatment which works by supporting your immune system, such as homeopathy, yoga, meditation

It?s really important to make regular time for you. This isn?t always appreciated as being important. Parents are often guilty of this. They often put the children first. However, it is vitally important, to have time to be you. It restores balance, it relaxes you, you end up setting a great example to your children.

Top Reasons to Consider Renting a Storage Space | One by One ...

Do you live in a cramped apartment, claustrophobic condominium or a spacious home that?s turning into a cluttered mess? Instead of throwing a massive yard sale or filling your leaky basement or musty garage to the rafters, utilize the benefits of a storage locker. Not only are the units safe and secure, most are also climate and pest controlled. Here are 8 more reasons why storing your family heirlooms, children?s toys and Christmas ornaments in a storage unit is a wise decision.

Seasonal Items

Imagine the time and energy you?ll save visiting your beautifully organized storage unit when it?s time to pull out the Christmas or Halloween decorations. Storage units are not only ideal for safely housing your decorative items; they?ll also keep your seasonal clothing safe from mold, mildew and insect damage. Many parents are faced with the dilemma of a child who is involved in several sports, from hockey and figure skating to golf and soccer. If your home is becoming overwhelmed with sporting goods and gear, consider a storage unit to securely house these items until next season.

Overflow Storage

Almost any homeowner has a secret closet filled with old cookware or a basement that is overflowing with their children?s toys or dad?s fishing gear. If you?ve simply outgrown your space, but aren?t interested in moving, a storage unit is the answer to your problem. Many homeowners have simply accumulated too many goods that aren?t necessary for everyday life, but they?re not quite ready to part with them. If the items are worth holding onto, consider self-storage as an economical answer that saves your closets, basement and garage from becoming disastrous.

Storing Collectibles

If you?re like most Americans, you probably have a collection of some sort. Whether it?s a gaggle of porcelain geese or a bevy of bowling trophies, your collection might be too large for your armoires, bookcases and shelves. The best solution for your cache of personal possessions is a secure storage locker. The locker allows you to categorize, group and store your collection with the knowledge that it will be protected.

?

Moving?

Moving is a hassle that no one enjoys. Make the process less disheartening by storing your overflow items in a storage unit. Moving the extraneous items into the storage unit during the move allows you or a contractor to perform home improvements without tripping over excess boxes. Life happens, and you might be forced to move in with a friend or family member after a death or loss of employment. Storage units allow you to protect your personal belongings while you transition into a future home. Also consider a unit to temporarily store home improvement and construction goods if you?re updating your present or future home.

Separation or Divorce

The anguish and pain associated with going through a separation or divorce is almost more than any one person can handle. The last thing they need is to deal with the burden of where to keep their belongings. Save yourself from this unnecessary stress by housing your belongings in a storage unit. With one less burden, you?re able to concentrate on the more crucial aspects of your life.

Empty Nester Necessity

The kids have gone away to college, gotten married or started their new career. They?re physically gone, but unfortunately many of their items remain. Instead of selling, trashing or donating these sentimental pieces, place them into a secure storage unit. The added cost is well worth the look on your grandchild?s face when you pull out his mother or father?s favorite teddy bear or 5th grade report card. Once again, choose a storage unit that is climate, humidity and pest controlled to ensure your child can pass down these treasures to their grandchildren.

Boats, Cars or RVs

Believe it or not, many storage units have ample room to house your classic car, fishing boat or recreational vehicle. Although their designed to house your favorite toys, many garages aren?t equipped to properly protect vehicles, boats and RVs when not in use. If improperly stored, these items are susceptible to frost, animals and insect damage. Storage units are also ideal to protect your other favorite recreational items, from jet skis and snow mobiles to motorcycles and four wheelers.

Business Inventory

Many small business owners suffer from the dilemma of requiring storage for their excess inventory, but not requiring all the square footage of a massive warehouse. A storage unit is the economical way to keep your inventory unharmed, no matter if you?re selling makeup, snow blowers or semi-precious stones.

These are just a few of the many reasons that keeping your personal or professional belongings in a storage unit is a wise move. Before choosing a unit, speak to the employees and tour the facility. The peace of mind you?ll receive from knowing your valuables are safe is worth the modest added expense.

Make this a ritual that affirms the importance of a restful night's sleep and provides a symbolic beginning and end to the day.
2. Take six minutes to center your mind and body.? Each morning, sit quietly for a few minutes to settle your thoughts and relax your body.? Listen to the sounds around you; imagine yourself in a serene and peaceful place; feel the beat of your heart; pay attention to the inhaling and exhaling of your breath.? This small investment in stillness will reap tremendous benefits throughout the day.? You will enter the day with a greater sense of well-being and a clearer mind.
3. Take six minutes to eat something nutritious.? No time for breakfast?? Try to have on hand something quick and easy such as a banana, a bowl of cereal, piece of whole wheat toast, instant oatmeal or a granola bar.? Get something into your system to kick start the day.? Your mind and body will work better and your ability to be organized and operate effectively will increase.
4. Take six minutes to go over your "to do" list.? One technique is to take a piece of paper and draw one vertical line down the middle and one horizontal line across the center to create four quadrants.? Use each quadrant to list different kinds of tasks you are facing for this day.? One quadrant can be for errands to run, another for appointments, a third for people to contact by email or telephone, and the fourth for action steps related to current projects on which you are working. ?Now that you have your list, take a second look and realistically assess whether or not your list is too big for one day.? If so, eliminate the non-priority tasks.? Making a daily to-do list will reinforce your awareness of what's ahead and allow you to visualize it all getting done effortlessly.? This will increase your chances of having a successful and productive day.?
5. Take six minutes to delete all incoming emails that are obvious junk.? Before you concentrate on the important business of the day, why not quickly clean out the spam and clutter in your in-box.? Not only will this reduce the amount of mail to which you need to pay attention, it will also bring what's really important into better focus.

Total time invested:? 30 minutes.? Results:? Priceless.?
