Fear grows in O.C. cities near San Onofre nuclear plant

Concern over the safety of the San Onofre nuclear power plant is growing among Orange County cities closest to the facility, which has been shut down since January because of system failures.

Officials in nearby San Clemente and Laguna Beach ? both within 20 miles of the San Onofre facility ? have registered their fears after significant wear was found on hundreds of tubes carrying radioactive water inside the plant's generators.

Residents in the Orange County beach towns for years have lived with the twin-domed nuclear plant as a backdrop. In San Clemente, which falls within the plant's 10-mile evacuation zone, city-issued potassium iodide tablets and siren drills have become a fact of life.

But with scenes of the nuclear disaster in Japan fresh in people's minds, the recent closure has raised consciousness about nuclear issues and prompted critics to double down on their disapproval.

Some city officials are now calling for the decommissioning of the San Onofre site. The plant's license is set to expire in 2022.

"The plant should be shut down, period," said Verna Rollinger, mayor pro tem in Laguna Beach. "I have never supported it, and I wish nuclear energy was safe because it's a relatively clean energy source, but it's also so dangerous that I don't think we should be counting on that for our future energy needs."

She added: "I think people are concerned, and for good reason."

The mayor of San Clemente, Lori Donchak, wrote to federal officials asking that they demand a permanent disposal place for spent nuclear fuel, and others have asked that they consider expanding the evacuation zone beyond the current 10-mile radius.

Federal regulatory officials said the facility remains safe and the process to repair the damaged tubes is part of the effort to ensure those living nearby aren't endangered.

"San Onofre is being operated safely ? that's the bottom line," said Victor Dricks, a spokesman for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

But now that the facility has been off-line for some time, with power still flowing to homes and businesses without interruption, some have asked why it needs to come back into service. "The question is," Rollinger said, "how difficult would it be to go without it?"

Southern California Edison, which operates the San Onofre facility, said San Onofre is vital to providing electricity to a densely populated, high-consuming area like Southern California, with 20% of the region's electricity coming from nuclear plants.

"San Onofre is critical to that grid stability," said Jennifer Manfrey, a company spokeswoman, who added that the company is making up for the difference by purchasing power from different sources on the market ? a solution that can't continue indefinitely, particularly with the increase in consumption in the summer months. Other clean energy sources, such as wind and solar, aren't enough to close the gap.

But Marion Pack, a political organizer who opposes the facility, said the price for that energy source remains too high. "When you have to have all these safety measures," she said, "it says to me there is an inherent danger."

Networked Politics ? Blog Archive ? Foods For Weight Loss

So what are weight loss foods? We have all heard the expression, ?you are what you eat?. Whether it?s pork chops, fried chicken, potatoes, cheese cake or chocolate, your body will respond based on how you are feeding it. It?s not a bad thing to enjoy the foods you eat, but moderation is the key. You can still enjoy food on a diet, you just need to know there are some foods that when eaten help you lose weight and others that you want to avoid as they will cause you to gain unnecessary pounds.

Cold or chilled soups are great alternatives for low calorie dishes. They can include gazpacho or cucumber-dill, which are typically rich with plenty of vitamin rich vegetables. Consuming low-calorie soups prior to a meal is an excellent method to reduce overeating foods that tend to cause you to put on extra pounds. Also several health researchers confirm that having a type of low-calorie broth-based soup can actually provide you with a sense of fullness.

There is no single food that serves as the perfect diet food no matter how much hype you read in magazines or see over the Internet or on TV. However, if you know the difference between which foods promote losing weight and which contribute to weight gain, you?ve already got a good head start on achieving the ideal weight you desire.

Carrots are great weight loss foods due to its low calorie but high nutritional content (such as vitamins A, C, beta carotene and fiber). Because of its abundant fiber, it fills you up easily, preventing you from heaping on excess calories.Carrots are even more nutritious when cooked, but not over cooked. When consuming raw carrots the cellular walls are tough and harder on your digestive system. Steaming vegetables will maintain the nutrition, but aid in digestion. This enables your body to convert more beta carotene into vitamin A. Alternatively, you can blend carrots into juices with other fruits or vegetables.

You have to distinguish what can be considered ?super? foods which are a must for a healthy weight loss diet. For some dieters, adding these weight loss foods to their daily diet can provide quick weight loss that they need. They prefer this because they feel so restricted on other formal diet plans being offered in the market.

As experts suggest we need to drink at least two to three liters of water each day. But this can be hard to maintain on a consistent basis if you are not used to drinking that much water. An alternative to add food items with a high water content, but fewer calories. These types of foods help to fulfill our water intake and with fewer calories being eaten, our bodies begin to lose those extra pounds while the water helps to flush out toxins which speeds up the weight loss process even faster.

Specific foods aimed specifically at rapid weight loss are ones that speed up your metabolism. These are the kinds of foods that are rich in protein such as chicken, fish, meat and eggs. Caffeine and other weight loss accelerators can speed up your body to make you lose weight. HOWEVER, these adding fat burning pills and accelerators can cause problems and be damaging to your health.. Foods like citrus fruits, soybeans, fresh fruits, garlic, cayenne pepper and olive oil are much better alternatives than artificial accelerators.

Many billions of rocky planets in the habitable zones around red dwarfs in the Milky Way

ScienceDaily (Mar. 28, 2012) ? A new result from ESO's HARPS planet finder shows that rocky planets not much bigger than Earth are very common in the habitable zones around faint red stars. The international team estimates that there are tens of billions of such planets in the Milky Way galaxy alone, and probably about one hundred in the Sun's immediate neighbourhood. This is the first direct measurement of the frequency of super-Earths around red dwarfs, which account for 80% of the stars in the Milky Way.

This first direct estimate of the number of light planets around red dwarf stars has just been announced by an international team using observations with the HARPS spectrograph on the 3.6-metre telescope at ESO's La Silla Observatory in Chile [1]. A recent announcement, showing that planets are ubiquitous in our galaxy used a different method that was not sensitive to this important class of exoplanets.

The HARPS team has been searching for exoplanets orbiting the most common kind of star in the Milky Way -- red dwarf stars (also known as M dwarfs [2]). These stars are faint and cool compared to the Sun, but very common and long-lived, and therefore account for 80% of all the stars in the Milky Way.

"Our new observations with HARPS mean that about 40% of all red dwarf stars have a super-Earth orbiting in the habitable zone where liquid water can exist on the surface of the planet," says Xavier Bonfils (IPAG, Observatoire des Sciences de l'Univers de Grenoble, France), the leader of the team. "Because red dwarfs are so common -- there are about 160 billion of them in the Milky Way -- this leads us to the astonishing result that there are tens of billions of these planets in our galaxy alone."

The HARPS team surveyed a carefully chosen sample of 102 red dwarf stars in the southern skies over a six-year period. A total of nine super-Earths (planets with masses between one and ten times that of Earth) were found, including two inside the habitable zones of Gliese 581 and Gliese 667 C respectively. The astronomers could estimate how heavy the planets were and how far from their stars they orbited.

By combining all the data, including observations of stars that did not have planets, and looking at the fraction of existing planets that could be discovered, the team has been able to work out how common different sorts of planets are around red dwarfs. They find that the frequency of occurrence of super-Earths [3] in the habitable zone is 41% with a range from 28% to 95%.

On the other hand, more massive planets, similar to Jupiter and Saturn in our Solar System, are found to be rare around red dwarfs. Less than 12% of red dwarfs are expected to have giant planets (with masses between 100 and 1000 times that of Earth).

As there are many red dwarf stars close to the Sun the new estimate means that there are probably about one hundred super-Earth planets in the habitable zones around stars in the neighbourhood of the Sun at distances less than about 30 light-years [4].

"The habitable zone around a red dwarf, where the temperature is suitable for liquid water to exist on the surface, is much closer to the star than the Earth is to the Sun," says St?phane Udry (Geneva Observatory and member of the team). "But red dwarfs are known to be subject to stellar eruptions or flares, which may bathe the planet in X-rays or ultraviolet radiation, and which may make life there less likely."

One of the planets discovered in the HARPS survey of red dwarfs is Gliese 667 Cc [5]. This is the second planet in this triple star system and seems to be situated close to the centre of the habitable zone. Although this planet is more than four times heavier than Earth it is the closest twin to Earth found so far and almost certainly has the right conditions for the existence of liquid water on its surface. This is the second super-Earth planet inside the habitable zone of a red dwarf discovered during this HARPS survey, after Gliese 581d was announced in 2007 and confirmed in 2009.

"Now that we know that there are many super-Earths around nearby red dwarfs we need to identify more of them using both HARPS and future instruments. Some of these planets are expected to pass in front of their parent star as they orbit -- this will open up the exciting possibility of studying the planet's atmosphere and searching for signs of life," concludes Xavier Delfosse, another member of the team (eso1210).

Notes

[1] HARPS measures the radial velocity of a star with extraordinary precision. A planet in orbit around a star causes the star to regularly move towards and away from a distant observer on Earth. Due to the Doppler effect, this radial velocity change induces a shift of the star's spectrum towards longer wavelengths as it moves away (called a redshift) and a blueshift (towards shorter wavelengths) as it approaches. This tiny shift of the star's spectrum can be measured with a high-precision spectrograph such as HARPS and used to infer the presence of a planet.

[2] These stars are called M dwarfs because they have the spectral class M. This is the coolest of the seven classes in the simplest scheme for classifying stars accordingly to decreasing temperature and the appearance of their spectra.

[3] Planets with a mass between one and ten times that of Earth are called super-Earths. There are no such planets in our Solar System, but they appear to be very common around other stars. Discoveries of such planets in the habitable zones around their stars are very exciting because -- if the planet were rocky and had water, like Earth -- they could potentially be an abode of life.

[4] The astronomers used ten parsecs as their definition of "close." This corresponds to about 32.6 light-years.

[5] The name means that the planet is the second discovered (c) orbiting the third component (C) of the triple star system called Gliese 667. The bright stellar companions Gliese 667 A and B would be prominent in the skies of Gliese 667 Cc. The discovery of Gliese 667 Cc was independently announced by Guillem Anglada-Escude and colleagues in February 2012, roughly two months after the electronic preprint of the Bonfils et al. paper went online. This confirmation of the planets Gliese 667 Cb and Cc by Anglada-Escude and collaborators was largely based on HARPS observations and data processing of the European team that were made publicly available through the ESO archive.

Friendship and polyamory ? Atheist, polyamorous, skeptics

Posted by shaunphilly in Culture and Society, Polyamory.
Tags: friendship, monogamy, polyamory, relationships, sex
trackback

In my last post, I discussed how monogamy is unlikely to satisfy all of our needs.? I was aware of a few issues tangential to that, but wanted to leave them aside in the interest of keeping posts shorter.? So I will address two issues today; non-sexual friendships and our ability to satisfy needs and desires without relationships.

?The Greatest Love of all?

As I mentioned the other day, in order to have successful relationships, you need to start with yourself.? We need to find where it is possibly, and even preferable in some cases, to find ways to make ourselves happy on our own.

Surely, there will be many circumstances where there will be overlap between this self-satisfying of desires and our relationships with other people.? Our sexual needs, for example, sometimes can be answered with masturbation and sometimes will require, you know, sex with other people.? Also, there will be times when an emotional challenge can be solved by some serious thinking, reflecting, and evaluation of a situation on our own.? Other times we will need the perspective of others to help us, as often other people see things in us we cannot see.

We are not island nations, but sometimes our own domestic policy is sufficient for answering to issues of the day rather than appealing to other nations, (or whatever the UN would be in this analogy) for help.

But the essential point is that when it comes to our needs, simply looking within is a great way to go satisfy them.? Therefore, I encourage everyone to maintain a healthy relationship with the complexity inside our own heads.? I encourage self-love, without getting all hippy about it or something.? Dammit, I think I might be too late?.

Polyamory as a footnote to Plato?

?or at least Platonic friendship.

Many of the needs we have in our life, complex as they are, do not require finding a sexual partner at all.? The needs which are not satisfied by our partner(s), which are not satisfied by them, do not necessitate finding another romantic or sexual partner necessarily.? Sometimes just a Platonic partner, or friend, is sufficient.

As I have written about before, polyamory does not require sex to be polyamory.? As a result of this, many people are already polyamorous even if they don?t use the term, or know the term.? Friendships outside of a relationship, especially if they are very close, are so much like what polyamorous people are doing that I often use it as an example of how poly works to people who seem confused by it?s strangeness.? It?s really not that strange.

If you are in a monogamous relationship, there will be things you want and need to do which your partner does not satisfy.? Whether that is watching sports, going shopping, or getting some drinks on a Wednesday night, our friends fulfill many of our needs which our committed, exclusive, relationship do not.

Assuming that one partner in a coupling does not interfere with their partner?s friendships, which does happen (and, I think, is due to the same jealousy which makes most people avoid polyamory), those relationships are highly rewarding, meaningful, and important to us.

Most monogamous people have arrangements just like this, and many of them, in reading this, might be confused why this has anything to do with polyamory.? ?So,? the objector may say, ?why would people need polyamory when we have friends, ourselves, and our one loving partner to satisfy our needs in life?? Well, if these things actually do satisfy your needs, then perhaps we don?t need to be polyamorous. Where I have the problem is that people ignore, repress, or rationalize away other needs they may have in order to maintain monogamy artificially.? My problem is when monogamy is maintained for its own sake, and not for the sake of authenticity and honesty about what we want.

That is, many people pretend like monogamy+friendship=satisfaction of all needs, when in fact it does not.

What happens when a friend of ours starts to become someone you are very attracted to? What happens when you develop feelings for a person at your gym, book club, or run into an old flame? Why should we ignore this reality, just because we have a sexual/romantic partner? And if so, why?

What?s wrong with enjoying sex, safely, consensually, and transparently with other people whether we, or they, are in a relationship?

What?s wrong with wanting your cake and having it too?

Nothing.

Pursuing every desire?

Yes, there are people out there I am sexually attracted to who I don?t pursue.? I don?t pursue every potential relationship I find, because I recognize that it sometimes there are complexities of desire which are more than I need or want, and so I don?t pursue every desire.

But sometimes the feelings are too strong, the desire to intense, to ignore.? And depending on how much time I have in my life, I will pursue sexual/romantic partners to various degrees.? Right now, my fiance and my girlfriend take up a lot of my time, so pursuing anything very involved or serious is unwise and unwanted at the moment.? That said, if I really got into someone, I would probably find time, because, well, love is worth the effort.

But finding a friend with whom I can share a sexual relationship, especially if that desire is two-way, is healthy and available to me.? It does not threaten my relationships to do so, and it brings some pleasure and joy to my life.? Why should I not want and pursue such things?

Friendships are great, whether they are Platonic or not.? We should allow ourselves to express how we feel about people without artificial censorship or repression because of some strange obsession with maintaining monogamy in our culture.? So keep up your relationships with yourselves, enjoy your friends, and allow yourselves to have the relationships with the people around you as you want, and let ?normal? social expectations and pressures have minimal say in how you do so.

Pawlenty shaves presidential campaign debt

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) ? Former GOP presidential candidate Tim Pawlenty has whittled his campaign debt down to $17,500.

The remaining red ink is detailed in a monthly federal campaign report filed Tuesday. It is down considerably from the nearly half-million dollars Pawlenty owed last fall.

Pawlenty, Minnesota's former governor, dropped out of the White House race in August after a poor showing at the Iowa GOP's straw poll. He was worried about going deep into debt to keep his campaign afloat.

Pawlenty now backs former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney in the race. Romney has helped Pawlenty raise money to pay off the debt.

Three finance and political consultants are still waiting to get paid by Pawlenty's campaign. None is owed more than $7,500.

Very Stupid Man Arrested for Calling 911 on Facebook-Spying Wife [Bad Ideas]

Poor Doyle Hardwick just wanted to cruise Facebook in peace, without his wife watching over his shoulder. He tried everything. Asking her nicely, plying her with lots and lots of beer, calling 911 to get the police to resolve the situation. None of those approaches really made much sense.

ROSEMONT, Ill. (AP) ? Glory Johnson figures that in the past she might have slugged an opponent in such a physical game.

Instead, she kept her cool and Tennessee moved on.

The Lady Vols would love nothing more than to make another Final Four with Pat Summitt, and they moved one step closer Monday, beating DePaul 63-48 in the second round of the NCAA tournament.

Shekinna Stricklen scored 17 points and Johnson grabbed a career-high 21 rebounds.

Vicki Baugh scored 16 for the Lady Volunteers (26-8), who grabbed a double-digit lead early in the second half and closed out a physical game in which players seemed to hit the floor about as often as they hit shots.

"My whole attitude has kind of developed over time," said Johnson, a senior. "That's something I thank my teammates for and my coaches. They always kind of keep me composed and say, 'The refs will handle it.' Or, 'We'll talk to the refs. We'll talk to the refs, don't worry about it, keep playing as hard as you can.' I just rely on my teammates and my coaches and trust them. If I keep working, they'll handle it. As a freshman, that wasn't going to happen. All I knew is if someone ticked me off, I'd hit them back. I'm a lot more composed."

The referees didn't call many fouls, with Tennessee attempting 18 free throws and DePaul just five, and both teams got their share of bumps and bruises along the way.

"It's a big girls' game," Johnson said.

And she figures it won't get easier from here.

Tennessee stretched a five-point halftime lead to 12 early in the second half and was up 42-29 after a hook shot by Baugh with 11:41 remaining. The Lady Vols remained in control from there and moved closer toward their ultimate goal ? a 19th Final Four and ninth NCAA title.

The powerhouse program hasn't been that far since it repeated as champions in 2008, a nearly four-year drought that might as well be four decades given its history.

If the Lady Vols have another reason to make it to Denver.

Summitt announced in early August that she has early onset dementia, Alzheimer's type, and she might not coach beyond this season. There have been ups and downs on the court, too, but Tennessee appears to be in stride at the moment, with six straight wins after improving to 20-0 against the Blue Demons.

Tennessee routed DePaul in December in New York and prevailed this time on the court where the Blue Demons' men's team plays most of its home games.

The Lady Vols shot just over 37 percent but prevailed anyway thanks to a huge rebounding advantage, particularly in the second half. The final tally was 51-31 after Tennessee outrebounded the Blue Demons by two in the first half.

Anna Martin scored 20 points for DePaul (23-11), but a difficult season came to an end. The Blue Demons were hit hard by injuries, losing star Keisha Hampton (knee), and were forced to go with a seven-player rotation.

"I think a lot of people counted us out, but we're not that kind of program and we proved that in making the NCAA tournament in the first place and then pushing through into the second round," forward Katherine Harry said.

DePaul made its 10th straight NCAA, but came up short against one of the marquee programs.

No other school has made all 31 NCAA tournaments, and the only time Tennessee failed to reach the Sweet 16 was in 2009, when the Lady Vols got knocked out in the first round, a year after capturing their eighth championship. The only player left from that team is Baugh.

"I think in the past, they've looked ahead," associate head coach Holly Warlick said. "I think they thought if they put a Tennessee uniform on, they're going to win a national championship, but it's hard work. It doesn't just happen."

Verizon updates Revolution with Remote Diagnostics, HTC turns to LogMeIn

LG Revolution
Both Verizon and HTC are experimenting with remote diagnostics and tech support. Big Red will be offering the tool to owners of the LG Revolution first. The VS910ZV8 update delivers a number of changes, but the most notable new feature is the integration of Verizon Remote Diagnostics. Now, when a customer calls support, the technician (or script follower, as the case may be) on the other side can take control of the user's device to troubleshoot or demo apps. And, just in case you're paranoid about handing over the keys to your handset, the tool only collects info such as battery temp, OS version and what apps are installed -- your contacts and other personal data are safe from prying eyes. HTC plans to offer similar capabilities on its phones, but through LogMeIn Rescue. Future handsets from the company will come with the app preinstalled so that HTC's own technicians can diagnose issues and tweak settings. For more details on the Revolution update hit up the source link and check out the PR after the break for the low down on HTC's initiative.

The need for attention is acknowledged by most yet nevertheless also feared at times. There are surely times in everyone?s existence when you intend to avoid attention, stay in the background or slip from a room unnoticed. Yet generally to gain attention can be a primary need with life.

It?s not necessarily enough to just be provided food and product necessities; cuddles, eye contact and emotional acknowledgement are a vital an important part of a baby?s world.

These latter characteristics remain imperative as we grow up. We need being acknowledged. We need be seen and valued being a individual. Our sense of self is built upon a basis of focusing on how others respond to help us and respond to us. We are able to see through interactions with others whether we are liked, considered Sonic List Builder important or deemed to become ?good?.

Myths Associated With Managed Web Hosting | My Business ...

These biased evaluation procedures come out as myths. Lets us discuss the myths which sling the Managed website hosting one by one.

Myth#1 ? Many website owners believe that managed hosting is doubly expensive than the dedicated hosting.

Reality: It is quite true and there?s partial reality that managed website hosting plan will cost a little more if compared to dedicating hosting plan that offers the same features. However, if overall picture is taken, the managed hosting will definitely save time and money of the customers as some of the time taking processes are given to dedicated web hosting company.

Websites hosted on the managed servers will definitely not cost the companies double expenses. Over the long run, if you host your website on managed server, it will cost you less.
Myth#2 ? Managed hosting Provides freedom and liberty as it is fully automated

Reality: Here it is extremely important to measure the degree of automation and freedom. This will depend upon the Web Host and also the various pricing tiers that Web Host offers to the customers. But, whatever service level you choose, the very significant thing that you need to consider that irrespective of the service plan you choose, the Web Host will still expect that you offer your own website design, content and other important things pertaining to your online business. Therefore, you cannot say that Managed hosting offers completely hands free service.

Myth#3- Managed Hosting is demanded by those who are New to Web Based Busines

Reality: Managed hosting is not absolutely made for the technologically inexperienced individuals or those web business owners who have just taken the plunge into the online business. In fact, most of the organized online business companies go for managed website hosting plans so that they get the advantage reduced in house costs and more efficient server management. Most of the companies who have skilled and technology experienced staff like to go for managed web hosting.
