Apple may already be the favored child of Greenpeace and platform of choice for eco-minded gadgetistas worldwide, but it isn’t resting on its laurels. The company looks like it’s pondering an entrance into the home automation/energy tracking markets, filing for a pair of patents that would enable devices to register their power usage and communicate with each other using HomePluge Alliance standards. Users would be able to monitor the charging status of connected devices and delay their charges to occur during off-peak hours. There’s even a new type of plug that could internally perform AC/DC conversions and automatically provide the appropriate amount of juice to any supporting device. The end of the ubiquitous power brick? Sounds nice, but something tells us it’ll be a few decades before we can reclaim that precious space in our carry-ons.
Two new patents show Apple getting into the energy tracking game, killing power bricks originally appeared on Engadget on Mon, 18 Jan 2010 09:56:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

Hey, you know what’s hot right now? Android 1.5. You know what else? Resistive touchscreens and chunky bodies, the ladies just can’t get enough of them. Good thing too, since in some alternate universe where the Motorola Droid, HTC HD2 and the Nexus One existed, this LG GW620 — hereafter to be known as the InTouch Max — would look like it’s arriving about a year too late to matter. A phone that’s been teased and promoted since September, it has finally found homes on Virgin Mobile and T-Mobile in the UK, where unwitting victims can have it forced upon them for free when they sign up to long-term contracts costing at least £20 ($32.50) per month. Hit the source link for more details, if you must.

Gov. Pat Quinn today joined Assistant U.S. Senate Majority Leader Dick Durbin (D-IL) to speak at “Beyond Transportation: The Economic Impact of Rail in Illinois.”
The summit is dedicated to bringing together stakeholders in government, economic development and private industry to improve rail infrastructure and create jobs in Illinois.
“I am committed to making Illinois an inland port that is the hub of rail transportation, not only for the Midwest, but for the nation,” said Gov. Quinn.
“This summit will us achieve that important goal, generating much-needed economic development and creating jobs.”
Governor Quinn partnered with Northwestern University’s Transportation Center and the Environmental Law & Policy Center to chair the event, which is gathering experts from across the country for a rail policy and economic development dialogue.
“Governor Quinn and I have worked side by side from day one to demonstrate Illinois’ commitment to high-speed rail and the rail industry as a whole,” said Durbin.
“One of the most important contributions the freight and passenger rail industries provide to Illinois is good-paying jobs that support families and help pay for college. For that reason and many others, we need to invest in rail as we strengthen our nation’s economy. The discussions and ideas shared today will help keep Illinois at the forefront of the railroad renaissance we’re currently undergoing.”
Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Economic Development John Fernandez of the U.S. Department of Commerce and Administrator Joseph Szabo of the Federal Railroad Administration keynoted the event.
Attending industry experts hosted several panel discussions on local development, sustainability, manufacturing and connectivity in the global economy.
“Illinois has been America’s rail hub for more than a century, yet we must constantly improve and expand capacity for both goods and passengers to ensure that rail remains a robust engine for economic growth and energy conservation,” said Administrator Joseph Szabo.
Developing high-speed rail and improving current rail infrastructure are among Governor Quinn’s top priorities. Illinois has submitted two rounds of applications for stimulus funding from the U.S. Department of Transportation for high-speed passenger rail.
Additionally, through the Illinois Jobs Now! plan, the state is poised to make the largest investment in rail infrastructure in Illinois’ history.

Denver-area Mac consultant Mike Kimble is no stranger to Apple; he worked at an Apple reseller prior to the introduction of the Mac in 1984, and he’s been involved with Macs and other Apple products ever since. Mike recently found several old Apple tapes that were sent to his business back around the Mac intro, and his description of one of them says it all:
“I found this VHS cassette while cleaning my office this week. This “Found Footage” comes from a video tape I received from Apple back in 1984 when the original 128K Mac was introduced. It was part of the authorized dealer training videos given to each store to help them become familiar with the Macintosh. You will see a very young Burrell Smith, Andy Hertzfeld, Phil Gibbons, Mitch Kapor, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. You really get a good feel for how proud and excited these people were for the creation of something special. Little did they know how much they were about to change the world…”
My personal favorite scene is the one where Bill Gates is sitting with a 128K Mac on his desk. The video is divided into two parts; the second can be viewed by clicking the “read more” link below. Enjoy this trip down memory lane!

I am wondering if anyone has managed to restore their hypo awareness after loosing it? With the pump I have consciously been trying to keep my BG levels higher than I really want (6.0 to 7.0 (100-130)) and when I hit around 4.0 (72) or even 5.0 I correct that immediately to avoid falling close to a hypo level. I have managed to maintain this for about a month, but I have not yet detected a change in my reaction to low BG levels. Should I be keeping my average BG even higher?
This seems like a very challenging process and maybe I need to be more patient. Anyone had any succes with this or advice?

UN News Centre: Properly managed grasslands – even more than forests – could fight climate change by absorbing and storing carbon dioxide, according to a newly released report by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). The world’s nearly 3.4 billion hectares of grasslands store 30 per cent of global soil carbon in addition to the substantial amount of above-ground carbon held in trees, bushes, shrubs and grasses. They also account for 70 per cent of agricultural land.
In its report “Review of Evidence on Drylands Pastoral Systems and Climate Change,” FAO noted that grasslands could play a major role in supporting the adaptation and reducing the vulnerability to climate change for the more than one billion people who depend on livestock for a living.
FAO Assistant Director-General Alexander Müller said that the world will have to use all options to contain average global warming within 2 degrees Celsius. He noted that “agriculture and land use have the potential to help minimize net greenhouse gas emissions through specific practices, especially building soil and biomass carbon. These practices can at the same time increase the productivity and resilience of agriculture, thus contributing to food security and poverty reduction.”
The report also noted that grasslands help improve the soil’s water retention capacity and thus can help its ability to withstand drought, and help safeguard biodiversity.
In addition, it cautioned that grasslands are particularly sensitive to land degradation, which affects some 70 per cent of pastures as a result of overgrazing, salinization, acidification and other processes. Pressure on the land is also due to the need to meet fast-growing demand for meat and dairy products.
Science Daily: The rangelands of Iran have one of the world’s longest history of agriculture development, with a deep tradition of technological developments and knowledge of the soil that has produced centuries of fertile crops. Currently, however, new pressures to feed an increasing population of humans and livestock in the region has taken its toll on the land, as evidence now suggests that the soil is rapidly degrading.
With the land overly stressed from the amount of livestock it supports, the ranges are subjected to overgrazing, primarily as a result of inadequate knowledge by those individuals responsible. To prevent further degradation of the land, new training programs to help pastoralists properly utilize their rangelands is needed.
A recent study was conducted to determine the most effective method of instructing pastoralists in the Ilam province of Iran, comparing the results of lectures and workshops in their understanding of methods to preserve, renovate and utilize their rangelands. After participating in the learning sessions, the subjects were then given questionnaires in order to collect data related to their overall understanding of the issues after their participation. The study was conducted through the Department of Agricultural Extension and Education in the College of Agriculture at Shiraz University of Iran.
The results have been published as a part of the latest edition of the Journal of Natural Resources & Life Sciences Education. The authors include Dr. Mansoor Shahvali, Associate Professor of Agricultural Extension and Education in the Agriculture College of Shiraz University; A. Poursaeed, a Ph.D. student of Agricultural Extension and Education and Lecturers of Islamic Azad University, Ilam Branch; and Maryam Sharifzadeh a Ph.D. student of Agricultural Extension and Education and Lecturer of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research Centre of Shiraz University.

We were just talking about whether or not countries are really able to push back on the US’s attempts to export draconian anti-competition/anti-innovation copyright and patent policies elsewhere. Michael Geist points us to two cases where US trade representatives are going overboard in trying to get foreign countries to put in place stringent intellectual property rules. The first is in Costa Rica, which is included in the Central America Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA). Yet like with other free trade agreements that the US has agreed to elsewhere, this one includes draconian intellectual property law requirements. I still cannot understand why intellectual monopoly protectionism — the exact opposite of “free trade” — gets included in free trade agreements. At least in Costa Rica, a lot of people started protesting these rules, pointing out that it would be harmful for the economy, for education and for healthcare. So the Costa Rican government has not moved forward with such laws. How has the US responded? It’s blocking access to the US market of Costa Rican sugar until Costa Rica approves new copyright laws. Nice of the US, right? Bankrupting Costa Rican farmers to force Costa Rica to put in place a copyright regime it does not want.
Then there’s the Bahamas, where US trade representatives are demanding new intellectual property laws, claiming that the country is not in agreement with WTO treaties. Apparently, the USTR is particularly upset about the police force in the Bahamas not cracking down on the sale of unauthorized DVDs, CDs and counterfeit clothing. However, as the Bahamas Chamber of Commerce president notes, nearly all of those counterfeit products actually originated in the US — and that the majority of people doing the buying are US tourists. In other words, the issue is really with the US, but it seems to want everyone else to deal with it.

NOTE: The following essay by Charles McKinney, professor of history at Rhodes College in Memphis and former board member of the Institute for Southern Studies, appeared on the website of The Jamestown Project in 2008, but the themes it raises are as important as ever.
CONTENDING WITH KING
By Charles W. McKinney, Jr., The Jamestown Project
As the fortieth anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King,
Jr. approaches, the nation’s attention will be ineluctably drawn, once
again, to the words and teachings of an American who altered the course
of history.
However, unlike the corporate-sponsored celebrations that
mark King’s birth – or the ones that take place during Black History
Month – the focus this time around will be on the work and words of a
veteran activist, drawn to Memphis in the early months of 1968 in an
attempt to confront the debilitating racial and economic inequality
that dogged the lives of the city’s sanitation workers.
Perhaps, as we
reflect on King’s death, we will – at least temporarily – move away from
the pop culture caricature of King that’s come to characterize our
collective memory of him, and actually seek to understand his responses
to the complex dilemmas that bedeviled American society in his lifetime
and beyond.
Historian Tim Tyson writes that in the years after the
assassination we worked hard to turn King into a “black Santa Claus.”
This version of King is a raceless, non-confrontational action figure
that can be, Tyson continues, “filled with whatever generic good wishes
the occasion may dictate.”
In an increasingly conflict-averse society,
we’ve grown comfortable with this new rendition of the Good Doctor –
King 2.0. This King is meek. This King turns the other cheek. This King
has dreams. Over time, we’ve become much less comfortable with the
black southern preacher and fierce social critic who, for most of his
public life, stood against some of the most powerful forces in American
society.
“The church,” King wrote in 1963, “must be the guide and critic of
the state.” If religious leadership failed in this effort, the church
would be reduced to “an irrelevant social club without moral or
spiritual authority.” This belief that the church played a central role
in the transformation of society placed him on a moral and political
trajectory that frequently confounded allies and convicted the
ambivalent.
Most significantly, it placed him at odds with the Johnson
Administration on its two central issues, the War on Poverty and the
war in Vietnam. By 1966, King had come to see Johnson’s domestic war as
piecemeal and under funded. In a time of soaring prosperity, it was
absurd, King declared, to spend billions of dollars on travel to the
moon while poor and working class Americans suffered under unspeakable
conditions.
Johnson’s War on Poverty did accomplish the task of
illuminating the intractability of poverty. For King however, it also
highlighted the unwillingness on the part of liberal politicians to
confront the issue in more foundational ways. The seeds of this
analysis would bear fruit in the Poor People’s March, King’s effort to
place the issue of poverty front and center in the American conscience,
and to challenge the country to make the necessary political and
economic adjustments to address the matter. “True compassion”, King
wrote in 1968, “understands that an edifice which produces beggars
needs restructuring.”
In 1967, a year to the day of his death, King delivered a major
speech against the Vietnam War at Riverside Church in New York City. To
King, it was morally inconsistent to simultaneously condemn state
sanctioned violence within the United States while ignoring state
sanctioned violence abroad.
The United States, he intoned in that
historic speech was “the largest purveyor of violence in the world
today.” Moreover, the war highlighted America’s hostile relationship
with its poor and minority citizens, who were dying at dramatically
higher rates than their numbers in the country merited.
King’s
political and spiritual instincts led him to a momentous conclusion –
that the war represented an immoral, racist, imperialist endeavor that
stained the soul of country. For King, the choice – though difficult –
was crystal clear: the moral and political crusade he waged in the
United States was built upon an alter of redemptive nonviolence; this
reality demanded that he speak out against the war. And so he did; and
when he spoke, he did so as a child of God and brother to the
Vietnamese.
It was a position that placed him in uncharted political territory
and had serious implications. Despite the fact that he’d recently
received the Nobel Peace Prize, and had long espoused the international
nature of the struggle for equal rights in the United States, pundits,
politicians and activists virulently chastised King, a mere “civil
rights leader”, for having the audacity to express an opinion on an
issue not unfurling on the streets of Selma or Los Angeles.
He faced
intense resistance from almost every corner of his professional life.
The board of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference – the
organization he helped create – expressed its opposition to the effort.
His closest advisors and political allies urged him to stick to civil
rights, and warned that an unwarranted foray into foreign policy could
jeopardize everything they’d worked for over the past decade.
By the time he arrived in Memphis, King’s opposition to the war –
now in full bloom – had rendered him persona non grata at Johnson’s
White House. Surrogates for President Johnson declared that King had
neither the authority nor the competence to speak about foreign
affairs.
His opposition to the war severely damaged his relationships
with other national leaders within the civil rights movement as well.
Roy Wilkins, head of the NAACP, questioned King’s loyalty to his
country. Whitney Young of the National Urban League accused King and
other anti-war activists of intentionally undermining the War on
Poverty with their anti-war stance. National publications were hardly
more kind.
The New York Times called his anti-war position a “serious
tactical mistake”, while newspapers across the South reaffirmed – with
renewed vigor – that King’s recent statements confirmed his suspected
communist sympathies. The Washington Post ran an editorial titled “What
on Earth can Dr. King be thinking?”
Simply put, King thought that unchecked racism, militarism and
poverty posed a direct threat to the existence of the human race. It
was this perspective that drew him to Memphis, to support a group of
men whose relationship with their employer seemed as if it had been
ripped from the pages of a previous century.
Called to work with a
plantation bell, paid starvation wages and fired on a whim, sanitation
workers represented the nearest thing to an “untouchable” class in the
city. But they were also increasingly fed up with the city’s antebellum
treatment. After they decided to stand and fight for better wages, the
right to organize and their very manhood, they asked King to join them,
and he did. So, in March of 1968, he brought publicity and star power
to their movement. He helped to nationalize their plight.
Of course, King brought a lot of things with him to Memphis for
what would be his final campaign. He brought the titanic pressures of
national leadership, pathological harassment by the FBI and the specter
of his own mortality. He attracted Black Power advocates who openly
mocked his leadership and attempted to consign nonviolent direct action
to a bygone era.
But more importantly, he brought with him a bedrock
assurance that the universe was morally ordered, and that there was in
fact a deep, abiding relationship between power, justice and love.
King, the hard-nosed political realist, also brought with him the
realization that coercion represented one of the crucial variables in
the calculus of liberation.
He knew, in his bones, that Frederick
Douglass was right about the fact that power conceded nothing without a
demand. He brought the knowledge that every ounce of freedom won in his
lifetime was the product of prayerful, deliberative struggle. He
brought an enduring, ever-deepening confidence in the power of
redemptive nonviolence to transform the human condition.
He brought
with him the prophetic hope that America would one day live up to the
high principles it set for itself at the Founding and in the wake of
Civil War. History, King believed, charted an upward path.
Forty years ago this Friday, the nation’s pre-eminent moral voice
fell silent for the last time. As in years past, we will run the risk
of celebrating the man by reducing him to a few familiar sound bites,
perhaps a video or two.
However, as we reflect on Martin Luther King,
Jr.’s legacy this weekend, let us remember him in his context. Let’s
confront the uncomfortable and perpetually uncompleted journeys he
dared us all to take. Have we kept each other accountable for our
mutual betterment? Have we done everything we can to make our democracy
as vibrant and inclusive as possible? Do our houses of worship speak
truth to power, or have they become the “irrelevant social clubs” that
King warned us they could become?
Finally, let us remember the beautifully complex, conflicted and
hopeful young man whose full potential – like that of our country – had
yet to be fully realized.
CABO FRIO
By magdarossana – PHOTOBUCKET
No total, a Região dos Lagos é formada por 13 cidades que compreendem mais de 100 quilômetros de litoral: Araruama, Armação dos Búzios, Arraial do Cabo, Cabo Frio, Carapebus, Casimiro de Abreu, Iguaba Grande, Macaé, Maricá, Quissamã, Rio das Ostras, São Pedro da Aldeia, Saquarema. Todas elas, com inúmeras lagoas e praias belíssimas para todos os gostos, desde as de mar aberto, propícias à prática do surfe, como aquelas de enseada com águas calmas, favoráveis para o mergulho.
Picasa – José Roberto Cordeiro
As cidades mais populosas são respectivamente, Macaé e Cabo Frio, 194.413 hab. – IBGE/2009 e 186.004 hab. – IBGE/2009.
picasa – By dzguy99
A atividade mais tradicional encontrada na região continua sendo a extração de sal marinho, presente em abundância por toda a costa fluminense. Geralmente junto às salinas encontram-se os moinhos de ventos, considerados também um dos símbolos da região, juntamente com o sol que brilha 300 dias no ano sob um céu azul e limpo.
Ao visitar as várias cidades que compõem o cenário dessa região litorânea, não é difícil encontrar colônias de pescadores espalhadas pelas praias mais calmas. Apesar de todo o desenvolvimento, ainda existem muitas famílias que vivem em função da pesca, o que intensifica ainda mais a tonalidade rústica de algumas de suas paisagens.
Wilson Picasa
Dentre todas essas citadas, as mais visitadas por turistas são Cabo Frio e Búzios. Cabo Frio principalmente de sua noite, belezas naturais e praias. Muito conhecida principalmente por mineiros, que costumam passar a temporada nesta bela cidade do Rio de Janeiro que hoje é considerada uma das maiores. Búzios é uma cidade muito famosa também por suas praias, uma beleza descoberta por Bardot. Outra boa opção são as cidades de Arraial do Cabo e Saquarema.
