The Best Sustainable Building Products from Greenbuild 2012 in San Francisco
Lifestyle Parenting Education
under Architecture, Design, Education, Energy, Environment
by Andrew Michler
A surprisingly political lineup of speakers (including Jerry Brown, Cory Booker, George Pataki, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski) bookended the 2012 Greenbuild conference in San Francisco. They spoke about all aspects of environmental policy, green building and infrastructure. USGBC President Rick Fedrizzi rallied the troops with an aggressive talk taunting detractors and framing the conversation as "we are right" when it comes to the debate on the future of society. We hit the show and caught some of the most innovative products that can make that rhetoric a reality.
Filterpave is a paving material made from 96% ground glass that is bound with an acrylic binder. The surface is laid in the same manner as concrete, and it's available in several vivid colors. What makes the surface so green is its ability to let rain easily percolate through—making parking lots, patios and walkways storm water management systems.
A much softer surface is available from Bramal – it's made from 50% reused tires and it can cover just about any substrate. It can be used on roofs to shed water, on bridges to protect steel, and tests are underway to use Bramal as a low-impact sidewalk in front of buildings.
Grasscrete offers another clever way to make large areas green but still traffic-friendly. It's a bit like a big egg carton made from paperboard which is filled with concrete. Rebar is placed crisscross inside, and after the concrete cures the voids can be filled with soil or gravel to reduce the dreaded heat island effect.
Other vendors had their heads pointed to the sky. Parans is a clever Swiss device now available in the US that uses Fresnel lenses and fiber optics to pump sunlight indoors. The box tracks the sun all day and fiber optic wires feed those lumens into the interior. Light is reduced 5% per meter, so while you can't illuminate the lobby of a skyscraper—you can easily light a typical room for most of the day.
Another approach to bringing the sky inside is to well… fake it. Sky Factory has designed an LED screen of clouds rolling past a blue sky for places such as hospitals where patients are often buried deep in the middle of a huge complex. The display mimics the light levels of the day outside to help occupants feel more connected and to improve their circadian rhythms.
Engaurd is a simple batt insulation that performs similar to fiberglass but it's made from 50% recycled PET plastic and uses a lot less energy to produce. It ups the ante being hydrophobic and fully recyclable. It's possible to make the product with 100% recycled material, however a big chemical company is sitting on the patent without making a similar product.
Kohler had a nice rest stop made from simple pallets and large cushions around a small greenscape – the best designed respite among the 1000 booths.
William McDonough closed the conference saying "What's next? Design is the first signal of human intention… the glass is neither half full or empty- the glass is always full of water and air, two essential human needs. But I think the glass is not big enough since I'm a designer."

One of the most interesting new solar products at Greenbuild is the Pythagorus Solar Windows which sneaks horizontal solar electric cells into a window without blocking the view. It seems like sleight of hand when looking at the solar cells placed in the glass when facing the exterior and walk around to see them simply disappear. Imagine entire towers clad in with solar windows, making power all day while improving the light inside by blocking heat and glare but maintaining the view.
Ecor is a strong, versatile construction product created from a composite of largely recycled and underutilized natural components. It is designed to serve as an environmentally sensitive, and superior, alternative to materials such as plywood—the makers claim it can be up to four times as strong, and can be used for everything from furniture to stage construction.

Asmodeo (hebreo:  אַשְמְדּאָי, ʾAšməddāy, griego antiguo: Ἀσμοδαῖος, Asmodaios) también llamado Asmodeus, Asmodaios, Asmodai, Hasmoday, Chashmodai, Azmonden o Sidonay, es uno de los príncipes de los demonios en la demonología de las religiones abrahámicas. Aparece en el libro bíblico (deuterocanónico) de Tobit o Libro de Tobías y también se lo menciona en el Talmud, en la literatura apócrifa, en la Historia de los Profetas y Reyes del autor musulmán Tabari y en los tratados de demonología.

Su nombre deriva del avéstico *aēšma-daēva, con el significado de "daeva de la ira", aunque no bajo esta forma compuesta sino como el daēva Aēšma, mencionado en textos zoroástricos, de los cuales pasó al judaísmo cuando este pueblo fue parte del Imperio Persa, de allí fue tomado por el cristianismo primitivo.

Descripción

En el Libro de Tobit, Asmodeo se enamora de Sara, hija de Raquel, y cada vez que aquella contrae matrimonio, mata al marido durante la noche de bodas. Así llega a matar a siete hombres, impidiendo que consumen el matrimonio. Más tarde, Sara se promete a un joven llamado Tobías. Este recibe la ayuda del arcángel Rafael, el cual le enseña cómo librarse del demonio. De este modo, Tobías toma un pez y le arranca el corazón, los riñones y el hígado, colocándolos sobre brasas. Asmodeo no puede soportar los vapores así desprendidos, y huye a Egipto, en donde Rafael lo encadena. No se sabe más de la suerte que corre este demonio, pero se le presenta como símbolo del deseo carnal.

En el Talmud, Asmodeo no parece ser una criatura tan maligna como en otros libros, sino que relata historias sobre su trato con el rey Salomón. Al parecer, Salomón llegó a atrapar al demonio y lo obligó a construir el Templo de Jerusalén. En otra leyenda medieval judía, Asmodeo y Salomón se cambiaron el uno por el otro durante varios años. En otra Asmodeo es presentado como el rey de todos los demonios, similar al concepto cristiano de Satán, y como amante de Lilith después de que ésta abandonara a Adán.

Asmodeo y Samael "El Veneno de Dios" son dos de los nombres que se le da a Lucifer tras tentar a Eva con el fruto de uno de los árboles prohibidos (el del conocimiento del bien y del mal), tras su caída se emparejó con Lilith, la primera mujer de Adán y con ella engendró miles de demonios.

En ocasiones se atribuye a Asmodeo la paternidad del mago Merlín. En la Edad Media, cuando se quería asociar los 7 pecados capitales con sus "demonios responsables", se le indicó como el demonio de la lujuria.

Asmodeo en la literatura y el arte

Asmodeo sirvió de inspiración al escritor Luis Vélez de Guevara para escribir su famosa novela El diablo cojuelo. Asimismo, Asmodea es el título que recibió en el inventario de 1829 un cuadro de Francisco de Goya.

La novela de aventuras Los misterios de Si-Fan (1917) de Sax Rohmer hace referencia en su capítulo 38 a un supuesto culto medieval británico a Asmodeo.

En su forma original, aparece como el líder de los demonios que poseen al alcalde Sonny Baskerville en la obra Promethea de Alan Moore.

Aparece en el último libro de la saga de Cassandra Clare, Cazadores de Sombras: Ciudad de Fuego Celestial, como padre del gran brujo de Brooklyn, Magnus Bane.

Asmodeo es uno de los personajes principales del cuento de terror grotesco "Fiesta de cumpleaños" del escritor costarricense Ariel F. Cambronero Zumbado, el cual fue publicado en la revista mexicana Palabrerías en el 2018.

Aparece en la serie Supernatural en la temporada 13 como uno de los cuatro Demonios "Príncipes del Infierno" creados por Lucifer en persona, los otros tres son: Azazel, Dagon y Ramiel.

Asmodeus aparece en la novela ligera y posterior anime Umineko No Naku Koro Ni como una mujer que sirve a las órdenes de la bruja Beatrice.

Asmodeus es uno de los demonios que aparecen en el juego para móviles Obey Me.

Asmodeus aparece como antagonista en el capítulo 7 de la primera temporada en la serie Helluva Boss.

Asmodeo aparece en el videojuego de Atlus "Persona 5" como la forma que toma Kamoshida en la batalla final representando sus deseos retorcidos.

La serie de anime Mairimashita! Iruma-kun hace referencia a Asmodeus en el personaje Asmodeus Alice, el cual toma el papel de compañero y mejor amigo del protagonista Suzuki Iruma.

En el videojuego Solatorobo:_Red_The_Hunter Asmodeus (アスモデウス Asumodeusu) es la aeronave personal de Red Savarin y Chocolat Gelato.

Pillar-like molecules as biosensors for metabolites
Researchers at Kanazawa University report in Communications Chemistry that a molecule known as pillar[6]arene can form a host–guest compound with a cancer-associated metabolite. The phenomenon can be used to efficiently detect the metabolite in crude biological samples, which is important for preventing and treating metabolic syndrome and associated pathologies.
Metabolites are organic molecules that take part in or are created during the biochemical reactions constantly taking place in an organism. For the human body, more than 110,000 metabolites have been identified. Metabolites play a role in metabolic syndrome, which is the situation in which several medical conditions occur simultaneously; the conditions include obesity, high blood pressure and high blood sugar. Metabolic syndrome is associated with a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease, type-2 diabetes and different kinds of cancer. The presence of certain metabolites can be an indicator for particular pathological conditions related to metabolic syndrome. Efficiently measuring and monitoring the presence is therefore important for early diagnosis. Now, Tomoki Ogoshi*, Atsushi Hirao*, and Masaya Ueno (*correspondence authors) from Kanazawa University and colleagues have developed a biosensor for a low-molecular-weight metabolite known as 1-MNA. The sensor relies on the physicochemical properties of pillar[6]arene, a channel-like molecule.
The researchers investigated the metabolite 1-MNA (1-methylnicotinamide), recently discovered to be present in higher levels in aggressive cancer cell lines. These cancers have increased NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase) activity in which 1-MNA is a byproduct. Detecting 1-MNA could be therefore crucial for the timely diagnosis and treatment of such cancers.
Ogoshi and colleagues hypothesized that pillar[n]arenes could be used as biosensors for metabolites like 1-MNA. Pillar[n]arenes are pillar-shaped macrocyclic compounds with a polygonal cross-section (pentagonal and hexagonal for n = 5 and 6, respectively). The researchers found that pillar[6]arene (P6A) forms host–guest a complex with 1-MNA; the metabolite can bind to it because the hexagonal cavity inside P6A offers just the right environment for doing so. They also found that when 1-MNA is bound to P6A, the fluorescent response of the latter significantly decreases — an effect that can be exploited as an indicator for the presence or absence of 1-MNA (strong or weak fluorescent response, respectively).
Importantly, the scientists could show that the P6A fluorescence detection mechanism works for biological samples. Specifically, they were able to detect 1-MNA in urine, albeit with a low sensitivity. Ogoshi and colleagues conclude that additional experiments "will help to improve the sensitivity and specificity of the biosensors", and that their work "should contribute to the development of low-cost, easy, and rapid methods for the detection of human metabolites for diagnosis".
Fig 1. NNMT catalyzes the methylation of nicotinamide to produce 1-methylnicotinamide (1-MNA). 1-MNA can be further oxidized by aldehyde oxidase into, N1-methyl-2- pyridone-5-carboxamide (2py) or N1-methyl-4-pyridone-3-carboxamide (4py), and all three metabolites are excreted in the urine.
Fig 2. Pillar[n]arenes, which were first reported by Ogoshi's group in 2008, are a family of pillar- shaped macrocyclic compounds that contain a para-bridge connection between the 1,4-dialkoxybenzene units. They have an electron-rich cavity that has host–guest properties, and it is known that pillar[n]arenes form stable complexes with cations. A water-soluble pillar[6] arene (P6A) is carrying 12 carboxylate anions. The diameter across the cavity of P6A is approximately 0.67 nm.
Fig 3. Upon addition of 1-MNA, the fluorescence intensity of P6A dramatically decreased because of photoinduced electron transfer. P6A also has high selectivity: P6A do not form host–guest complexes with nicotinamide and 2py.
Fig 4. (left) In a cell-free enzymatic reaction, 1-MNA is produced by NNMT in a time-dependent manner. P6A is used to monitor production of 1-MNA in this system. (right) P6A is also useful to detect 1- MNA in a crude biological sample. In animals, the concentration of urinary 1-MNA is highly dependent on the activity of NNMT and the total uptake of nicotinamide from foods. Therefore, intake of nicotinamide leads to an increase in the urinary excretion of 1- MNA in wild-type mice, while no 1-MNA excretion is detected in the Nnmt deficient mice. The fluorescence intensity of P6A is significantly quenched by wild-type derived urine samples. In addition, the fluorescence intensity was quenched by 1-MNA in a dose-dependent manner.

The FAIR Trophy for the best FreeFrom Food 2015 being presented to Laura McGowan and Nick Voakes of Voakes Free From by Antony Worrall Thompson for their gluten-free Traditional Pork Pie.
An excited crowd of nearly 300 'freefrom' enthusiasts gathered at the Royal College of Physicians in Regents Park last night to watch Antony Worrall Thompson award 'Marble Mo', the Oscar of freefrom food, to Laura McGowan and Nick Voakes of Voakes Free From for their Traditional Raised Pork Pie.
Voakes have been making award-winning pork pies from their own-farmed pigs for over 40 years. But when Nick Voakes' partner Laura was diagnosed as coeliac, the family focused their expertise on creating a gluten and wheat-free pork pie which would be indistinguishable from their classic ' normal ' pies. Their freefrom pork pies are created in a dedicated gluten-free facility near their farm in Yorkshire.

Lesbian Guide @ UIS
Welcome to the Lesbian Resource Guide @ UIS. This is a guide to help lesbians at UIS to find the resources they may need. We want to make sure that queer women at UIS are able to find support on this campus. One of the ways we can do this is to find online and print resources that are relevant to lesbians whether that be resources about coming out, fashion, health, or finding a book for class. The Lesbian Resource Guide is a living document which means that we are open to suggestions for other resources that we might have missed. If you would like to leave a resource suggestion please email us at gss@uis.edu
Lesbian is a term used to describe female-identified people attracted romantically, erotically, spiritually, and/or emotionally to other female-identified people. The term lesbian is derived from the name of the Greek island of Lesbos and as such is sometimes considered a Eurocentric category that does not necessarily represent the identities of African-Americans and other non-European ethnic groups. This being said, individual female-identified people from diverse ethnic groups, including African-Americans, embrace the term 'lesbian' as an identity label.

Over the past year, I have been going through a slow coming-out process within myself and have realized that I am a lesbian.

I am a lesbian who does not enjoy penetration and does not include this in my sexual repertoire. I am concerned, however, about Pap smears. I find the speculum very uncomfortable, even painful — my last Pap was agonizing and embarrassing. If I didn't know how important this annual exam was, I would just stop going.
I am seeking ways to make this experience less traumatic, so my question to you is, is there a way I can obtain a speculum of my own so I can practice at home? Any other advice on the subject of less painful Paps would be appreciated!

I have a question that I am very afraid to ask anyone else. I am a 21-year-old college student who has been in a three-year lesbian relationship with my college roommate. We are both deeply in love with each other and when it came time to tell her parents about our relationship, they were very supportive of our decision. My parents, on the other hand, are a different story. I was brought up in a very strict Roman Catholic family, where homosexuality is very much frowned upon. How can I tell my parents that I am a lesbian and make them understand without disowning me?
http://goaskalice.columbia.edu/stereotypical-lesbian
I've recently told a couple of my friends that I'm a lesbian, and they responded with a comment like, they already knew, or that they weren't surprised. I guess I have two questions. First off, is there a stereotype for lesbians, and if it's that obvious that I'm gay and a lot of my friends know, then how come I can't find a girl that I can share pleasurable experiences with?

I'm a lesbian and I think that my roommate could be slightly homophobic. We have never really had a great relationship but now that I've come out to her, we don't talk much at all. How do I talk with her about this issue so that we can put it behind is without making it so awkward?
http://goaskalice.columbia.edu/rumor-control-she-gay
There's a rumor going around that I'm either gay or bisexual, and I have no idea how it got started because I've never said anything about anything to anyone! But it's spreading rather quickly and is causing me great psychological pain and I don't know what to do.
http://goaskalice.columbia.edu/lonely-lesbian-wants-be-less-lonely
I'm a young lesbian and I masturbate a lot because of the lack of dating and sex. I live in a very small town. What and where can I meet other lesbian girls? Should I stop masturbating?
http://goaskalice.columbia.edu/should-i-explore-my-sexuality
I'm about to enter college and female, and, just recently, I've been attracted to a few girls. I also get aroused when I see two women having sex or kissing. I've had three boyfriends in high school, and I think I am still attracted to men. I would really like to experiment with girls to see if I am a lesbian or a bisexual. What should I do?
http://goaskalice.columbia.edu/lesbian-questioning-if-shes-bisexual
When I was a teenager, I thought I was straight. During college, I came to the realization that I was a lesbian. I am quite comfortable with identifying as a lesbian, but occasionally I find myself attracted to men. In my heart, I know that I am actually bisexual, but it really bugs me! Recently, I found a guy that I really would have liked to dated, but I couldn't bring myself to do it because I was afraid of how it would look. People (myself included) always seem to think that bisexuals are really either just promiscuous or just tragically confused.
I am still primarily attracted to women (especially for long-term relationships), so should I just stick with being lesbian? Is it fair to date a man when it's likely that it won't work out? How do I get my friends and family to understand what being bisexual really means? More importantly, how do I get myself to understand what this means? What if I really AM tragically confused?
http://goaskalice.columbia.edu/how-do-i-know-if-my-girlfriend-lesbian
My girlfriend really likes looking at women more than men. She is always commenting on their bodies and how well "that woman" looks. She is 29 years old and has never really enjoyed men until me but steps away from making a major commitment to me. Is it possible that she likes women?
http://goaskalice.columbia.edu/bad-experiences-men-lesbian
I am a woman who has always been attracted to other women. Until recently, I was attracted to men as well. Now I am almost exclusively attracted to women… which would be fine, except that I think this attraction has a lot to do with painful experiences I've had with men. When I was younger, my father was dominant and somewhat abusive, and my first boyfriend was emotionally manipulative and pressured me to have sex with him. After breaking things off with him, I had a very positive sexual relationship with a woman. Am I a lesbian, or am I a bisexual who is just afraid of men? If the latter is true, is there any way to get over this fear?
http://goaskalice.columbia.edu/interested-lesbian-sex
We are two straight sophomores who are considering lesbian activity. This is not a joke. We have always been intrigued by lesbians and have been asking the question, "How do they do it?" Obviously, a great deal of the enterprise must involve oral activity, but what else can we do?
http://goaskalice.columbia.edu/woman-woman-oral-sex-it-better-give-receive
As a lesbian who has recently "come out," I've noticed some women get into giving oral sex more than receiving it. Why is that?
http://goaskalice.columbia.edu/safer-sex-between-women
I am a young gay female. I am in the middle of a relationship. It is the first time for both of us. A friend gave us a book of stories and poems, etc. about gay relationships. In a couple, there were mentions of safe sex. I never realized that sex between two women was not safe. If you could give me any details of safer sex, it would ease my mind.
http://goaskalice.columbia.edu/where-can-i-get-dams-oral-sex
Do you know where I can get dental dams for lesbian oral sex and why these are barely promoted compared to condoms?
http://goaskalice.columbia.edu/can-sexually-transmitted-infections-stis-be-transmitted-during-sex-between-women
I'm a twenty-one-year-old lesbian. I've only had three sexual partners, all female, only one of whom has ever had sexual contact with a man. I recently had a pap smear come back abnormal and when I went in for the colposcopy, the doctor said he saw definite papilloma effect. I'm still waiting for the biopsy results. If I do have HPV, as seems almost certain, how did I get it? I thought it was virtually impossible to pass STDs from woman to woman during sex. Does anyone actually have any data on the risk of passing HPV woman to woman?

The Labour party has a dual personality - Jekyll and Hyde. On one hand is the humorous working class respectability (well till recently anyway) epitomised by John 'shagger' Prescott (and at the edges is Dennis Skinner), and it is fair to say they represent parts of the left wing of capital. On the other, there are blatant pro-capitalists such as Tony Blair and Gordon Brown. This has been the case since the 'working class aristocracy', the skilled artisans, mainly, set up the Labour party around 100 years ago, but the practice is more blatant now.
Bureaucrats are now tasked with promoting every initiative as something creative, new, that gives 'best value', and is really in the interests of all of us – despite all the contradictory evidence that this is not the case. In the process of Government this means that when New Labour promises 'independent' research processes, inquiries and consultations, it really means the agenda has already been set, and what counts for evidence and 'who speaks the truth' has previously been decided.
Official politics today is 'Machine politics' - the professionalism of party politics took politics away from the people. Now spin doctors, advisers and researchers spend millions on presenting the decided image of the moment, this is very top down politics and the people are not meant to have any say in the intrigues of those politicians, all of them, who value themselves and their opinions above ordinary people. Instead of democracy, what there is, is an 'Elected Dictatorship', where Blair can do what he wants regardless of the wishes of the people.
This state of affairs has had a prolonged shelf life partly because the working class radicals within the Labour party mistook the appearance, for the substance, of power. In other words, mesmerised by the potential of exercising limited power they were like rabbits staring into headlights, and so there was little discussion ensuing about the long-term implications of managing the capitalist economy post World War II as the juggernaut of global capital rolled over and past them. This is either in terms of what is the purpose of political activity, or about the real nature of socialism.
Our founding ancestors, those who struggled to form Trade Unions, who resisted the enclosures, who smashed machines because they took their jobs, who formed the 'Triple alliance', who took part in the General strike, who fought against the Nazis, who struggled in situations of dire poverty and so on... Did not do so to see their vision of solidarity, equality and liberty (in short, authentic socialism) sold out by New Labour bosses.
As time wore on, the very nature of the Labour party relationship with the unions, based as it was upon a false and contradictory premise, became clear. That there can never be a long term negotiated peace with capital. Not all is lost however.
Now with several unions and many individual members are refusing allegiance with the modern corporate 'New' Labour party and other signs of the British '2 party constitution' being brought into crises. The future of revolutionary and radical working class politics has opened up once more, away from bureaucratic sell-outs and towards working class self-determination. Progressive forces must try to seize the moment and become part of the realignment of radical politics that is happening right now. Let's do it.


That same helpless infant begins to explore – to search – to learn.
Each day brings challenges – excitement – newness.
The freshness of life – like the budding trees in spring – renewed, refreshed, alive.
Years go by and the no longer helpless body is now strong and fit.
It faces danger – fears – hopes and dreams with gusto – with no hesitation and often little thought.
The strength and ability to accomplish has been crafted into this creation.
Later days – the smoothness of the skin becomes transparent and spotted.
Fingers become crippled and deformed.
Each bump easily produces a bruise.
The inhalation of air can be difficult.
No longer pliable or elastic – the limp skin clings to less mass and more bone.
The body once more becomes wrinkled and stretched beyond its limits.
The mind – once filled with enough information to fill the largest computer – now forgetful, lost, fading. Decisions once easy to make must be made by others.
The life cycle comes to an end. We start out wrinkled and screaming and often leave this world in the same way. It's what happens in between that matters.

Q: CSS - Footer is cutting off itself on other pages of website with a global footer This website is being made with a back-end web to print service called Zoo Printing. The client I work for does not like their original design so I'm being hired to re-design it with their development team that handles the back-end. We can't find the reason why the footer (Which is global) is getting cut off on every other page except the front-page. Their developers are blaming my code, and will not tell me where the problem is coming from. Can one of you inspect my code, and tell me what would be causing this?
The website is Advanced Litho.
The front page is looking perfect for the footer, but it's when you go to another page you will see how it's cut off at the bottom.
