According to WarerWorld..."Leaders
from across California’s diverse business and labor communities joined together to support the proposedHuntington Beach desalination facility (theProject) and call on the California CoastalCommission to approve the Coastal Devel-
opment Permit (CDP) -- the last outstanding permit needed before construction can begin on the Project.
"Growing California’s economy and building our future begins with a clean, se-cure, and reliable source of drinkingwater," said Ron Miller, Executive Secre-tary with the Los Angeles/Orange Coun-ties Building and Construction Trades
Council. "Making smart investments in in-frastructure will benefit working familiesfor decades to come. Organized labor across our region is proud to support theconstruction of a new desalination facilityin Huntington Beach and call on the Cali-fornia Coastal Commission to take actionto move forward with the project."
"Our massive federation of businessnetworks strongly supports PoseidonWater and the Orange County Water Dis-trict's partnership on the HuntingtonBeach Desalination Project ," said TracyHernandez, CEO of the Los Angeles
County Business Federation. "Drought
and uncertain water supply conditionsacross the state make it imperative thatSouthern California communities findnew, long-term solutions to the water needs of residents and businesses. We callon the California Coastal Commission to
approve the pro- posed facility’s permit."
Over the courseof the Project’sc o n s t r u c t i o n
phase over 3,000 jobs will be gen-erated and over $500 million dol-lars will be in-
fused into theregional econ-omy. In additionto bringing thesingle largestsource of new,local drinking
water supply available to Orange County --6,000 acre-feet of water annually -- thewater treatment plant being built by Posei-don is a 100% private investment in OrangeCounty’s drinking water supply.
The CDP is the last discretionary con-struction permit required to begin con-struction on the proposed 50 milliongallon per day seawater desalination
project. Poseidon applied for the nec-essary permit almost a decade ago,and their application was only re-cently deemed complete by theCoastal Commission. A permithearing before the CoastalCommission is anticipatedwithin the next six monthsand as early as July.
California’s newest desalina-tion facility in Carlsbad beganregular production in mid-De-cember 2015 and is, to date, thelargest, most technologically
a d v a n c e dand energy-efficient desali-
nation plant inthe nation, deliver-ing over 6 billion gal-lons of drinking water to San Diego Countyresidents to date."

The World of Water: Drink it, Sail It
Brandon Turkus says Anchors Away in a big way..."This post isappearing on Autoblog Military, Autoblog's sub-site dedicatedto the vehicles, aircraft and ships of the world's armed forces.
When the Navy takes delivery of a new ship, it's not usually a big,newsworthy event. But when the ship in question is the first of a newline of ultra-advanced, stealthy destroyers, it's worth spilling someink over. So yeah, here's the new USS Zumwalt, and it's officially inthe hands of the US Navy.
While the new destroyer is finally in the Navy's hands and is under the command of Captain James Kirk (it'll be a crime if this guy does-n't get command of the next USS Enterprise), it's still not quite readyto join the fleet. The nearly 150-strong crew needs to get certified towork aboard the Zumwalt while she remains docked at Bath IronWorks. And once the testing is complete, it's on to the real party – the October 15 commissioning ceremony, when the first Zumwalt-class ship will officially join the fleet.
"Zumwalt's crew has diligently trained for months in preparationof this day and they are ready and excited to take charge of this shipon behalf of the U.S. Navy," Capt. Kirk said in an official statement.
"These are 143 of our nation's finest men and womenwho continue to honor Adm. Zumwalt's namesake
with their dedication to bringing this ship to life."We've seen DDG-1000, named after former Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Elmo
Zumwalt, on a fairly regular basis over the pastcouple months. The team at Bath kicked off
sea trials on the new ship in early Decem- ber, and even those simple tests made for
some interesting news. For one, engi-
neers discovered that the Zumwalt,despite being 610-feet from bow to
stern, has the radar signature of a40- or 50-foot fishing boat. That
makes it a genuine naviga-tional hazard, especially atnight or in bad weather.
The ship also took part ina rescue mission after a fish-ing boat captain complainedof chest pains, late last year.It was too dangerous for theCoast Guard to extract the
skipper from his boat via hel-icopter, so the Zumwalt
swooped in, picked up the cap-tain using one of its rigid-hulled
inflatable boats, and took advantageof its spacious landing pad to transfer
him to the chopper. Following the incident latelast year, the Portland (Maine) Press Herald listed the fisherman as
being in stable condition."

You Know You Are Living in 2016:
For women in the workplace, being pretty pays off.It seems female professionals between theages of 24 and 32 might be taken more seri-ously at work if they spend more time ontheir looks.
In fact, research suggests they have an eas-ier time getting a job, getting promoted andeven get paid more than their less attractivecolleagues.
So just how much more are pretty womengetting paid?
The study from sociologists at the Univer-sity of California, Irvine and University of Chicago suggests attractive individuals earnaround 20 percent more than that of someonewith average looks.
And attractiveness differs between genders.For women, "attractiveness" is the amount
of time they spend getting ready, putting onmake up and grooming.
But for men, it has less to do with groomingand more to do with natural good looks.
"Double standard" doesn't even begin todescribe this situation. Have you seen the price of eye cream?"

Hundreds of Huntington Beach localsrecently went to the HB PublicWorks Department's Third Annual
Open House on Main Street during the pop-ular Surf City Nights. This important teamof men and women are responsible for thedesign, construction, maintenance and run-ning of public facilities and infrastructure
within our city. Public Works, which helpsthe city 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, hasmore than 200 employees. They managemore than 30 percent of our city's TotalBudget, including three enterprise funds, aswell as the City Wide Capital ImprovementProgram. The six Public Works Divisionsare committed to providing the highest qual-ity service to the community and everyoneI've met from the team are dedicated, com-
petent and very caring. Here's what otherssay about them:
Susan Welfringer, executive director of the Huntington Beach Downtown Busi-ness Improvement District said: "We lovehosting the Public Works Open Houseevent during Surf City Nights. This is avery hard-working department and it's funfor the community to meet them and see afew of the important pieces of equipment
they operate from tractors and trucks tomonitoring devices."
City Engineer Tom Herbel said: "The Cityof Huntington Beach wants to thank all theresidents for coming to our National PublicWorks Week celebration at Surf City Nightsto see and better understand what we dofrom operating and maintaining 15 stormwater pump stations, maintaining 360 milesof sewer lines, installing traffic signs andstreet markings for more than 1,120 lanemiles of public streets, to maintaining thecity's buildings--from libraries, fire stations,recreation centers and the Civic Center-- toreading 52,500 customer water metersmonthly, performing more than 9,000 pre-ventative procedures and mechanical repairsfor the city's fleet vehicles to performing
over 30,000 water system water quality testseach year."
In addition, the City held its first annualHot Tap Competition at the event with theother towns, including, Santa Ana.
Commissioner Patrick Brenden of theHuntington Beach Planning Commission,said: "The Huntington Beach Public Works
Department provides our community withsome of our most vital services. They takecare of things that we all take for granted;things like sewers, water supply, pavement,sidewalks, trees, street lights, traffic lights,graffiti abatement and much much more. Ina city that covers 32 square miles and ishome to roughly 200,000 people, these serv-ices require tremendous coordination, excel-lent management and prudent investment.
We have such a dedicated group tothank for this!"
Did you know that the City’s largestasset, with an estimated replacementcost of $480 million, is our PavementMaintenance Inventory? We have99,273,000 SF of pavement throughoutthe City including 167 miles of arterial
roads and 315 miles of local streets plus
33 miles of alleys, and 739,000 SFof bicycle and pedestrian paths.
And, did you know that the city provides a mobile app called"GoRequest" where you can reportissues such as abandoned vehicles,
beach maintenance, block walls andfences, building construction noise,city tree maintenance, graffiti abate-ment, illegal dumping, parks main-tenance, sewer problems, sidewalk repairs, potholes, street lighting,street signs, traffic and speed con-cerns, traffic signals and more.
Using this app, you can add a photo and setthe location using your smartphone's GPScapability.
We're really fortunate to have such a tal-ented, skilled, reliable, fast-responding teamin our Public Works Department, workinghard every day to ensure that we can all con-tinue to take for granted the critical servicesthey provide.

SUGAR KILLS AND
THAT MEANS FRUIT
JUICE DOES TOO
Dear Reader,The British have been on a tear recently in
their attempt to reel in the ravaging effects thatsugar has had on their country, once and for all.And as you can imagine, I applaud them for tak-ing such a stance.
However you feel about the idea of a NationalHealth Service, this setup at least encourages asystem in which the government is invested ingetting a lot of bang for their buck where publichealth is concerned. (The U.S., on the other hand, just likes to throw money at fixing what-ever's broken instead of -- here's a novel idea! -- preventing it from breaking in the first place.)
One of the benefits of this focus on preventionhas been an ongoing campaign to expose sugar as the killer it is. And this time, England hasshifted the spotlight over to less obvious -- andin some ways, more dangerous -- sources.
A team of British researchers recently evalu-ated the sugar content of more than 200 differentfruit drinks. They measured "free" sugars -- glu-cose, fructose, sucrose, and table sugar, as wellas naturally occurring sugars. These could be ei-
ther added by the manufacturer, or a natural partof pure juices and concentrates.
In other words, we're not just talking aboutKool-Aid here. We're talking about fruit juicedrinks, those "100 percent natural" juices, andsmoothies that are specifically marketed to par-ents and young children. And surprise, surprise...many of them were found to have "unacceptablyhigh" levels of sugar.
In fact, close to half of these "kid's" drinks de-livered an entire day's worth of sugar -- 19 grams(equivalent to five teaspoons) or more -- in a sin-gle serving.
So much for these choices being "healthier."As this research so aptly demonstrates, sugar issugar -- no matter where it comes from. And theeffect fruit juice has on kids' health is every bitas scary as that of a can of sickeningly-sweetCoke.

The 80-game suspension of Miami Mar-lins’ second baseman Dee Gordon for violating MLB’s drug policy may have
set the stage for a discussion about the purpose of penalties: Deterrence or punishment?
Like every other athlete who has ever tested positive Gordon is-sued the obligatory apologyand said he had never know-ingly ingested a tainted sub-stance. Maybe he’s right, or maybe he’s lying. We maynever know. But here are threetakeaways from Gordon’s sus-
pension that we know to be ab-
solutely true.First, baseball players don’tuse PEDs for the sole purpose of
bulking up and hitting home runs.Generously listed at 5-foot-11 and170 pounds, Gordon has hit all of eight home runs in a career that in-cludes two full seasons and parts of four others. Eight home runs was agood week for Barry Bonds. So if PEDs don’t make you stronger, whatdo they do?
While there is no scientific evidence that proves PEDs help ballplayers hit a baseball, let alone hit it further, there is evidence that certain PEDs aid in the heal-ing process. That’s a valuable benefit in a sport where the human body may beasked to play more than 200 games over a span of nine months, from Spring Train-ing to the end of the World Series.
It’s also possible that PEDs allow pitchers to throw harder and players to run
faster. Gordon led the league in stolen bases in both 2014 and 2015. Or perhapsPEDs have a placebo effect, giving players a psychological advantage, the confi-
dence to go out every day to play a game where successis defined as failing less often than the competition.
Second, Gordon is proof that no one is free of suspicionwhen it comes to PEDs. If Dee Gordon, one of the un-likeliest players in MLB to be on the juice, is usingPEDs, then anyone could be using. Even if players weretested every day and never failed a test, no one couldsay for certain if they were clean.
Third, despite having the strongest drug policies inthe four major league team sports, there really aren’tany consequences to PED use in MLB. Gordon wassuspended without pay for half a season. He will lose$1.5 million in salary and miss out on a chance to
pad his 2016 stats. Beyond that? Nada. Last winter Gordon signed a 5-year, $50 million contract that pays him $3 million this year. Although his salaryloss is a significant amount of money to you andme, it represents only 3% of his 5-year guarantee,a mere pittance, especially if using PEDs helped
him secure the contract in the first place.It’s clear that current penalties don’t deter PED use. In order to
clean up the game, penalties must be severe enough to serve as punishment. Onlythen will they act as a deterrent.

Sister Madeleine of Jesus (1883?-1965) was born Laura Beatrice Getty in Danielson, Con-necticut. She became a member of the Sisters of the Presentation of Mary at an early age, teach-
ing at schools run by the order. Sr. Madeleine received a Ph.D. fromCatholic University in 1931. Two years after receiving her degree, Sr.Madeleine founded Rivier College in New Hampshire (originally inHudson, it is now in Nashua), to make it easier for religious women
and daughters of French Canadian immigrants to obtain a higher education. Starting with aclass of four in 1931, Rivier College continues today as a coeducational institution graduatinghundreds of students each year. Rivier College is the only New Hampshire institution of higher learning founded by a woman.

Dear EarthTalk:Can we ward off the
spread of the Zikavirus with better environ-
mental management? ~ Mary Dornfield, Key Largo, FL
Zika virus, first discovered in Uganda’s Zika Forest in1947, is transmitted to humans and other mammalsthrough the bite of an infected Aedes species mosquito,and typically causes only a mild and short-term illness(fever, rash, joint pain, conjunctivitis) that likely immu-nizes the victim from future infections. But a Zika virusinfection during pregnancy can cause a serious birth de-fect called microcephaly—where the fetal head doesn’tdevelop to the proper size, leading to other severe fetal brain defects.
Over the last half century, occasional Zika outbreaks
have been reported in tropical Africa, Southeast Asia andthe Pacific Islands. But the first confirmed case in the
western hemisphere last year in Brazil now has publichealth experts concerned about its potential to developinto a global pandemic. “Because the Aedes species mos-quitoes that spread Zika virus are found throughout theworld,” reports the U.S. Centers for Disease Control &Prevention (CDC), “it is likely that outbreaks will spreadto new countries.”
Indeed Zika’s recent “success” in spreading far beyonda few isolated pockets of the tropics may be partly attrib-utable to how we have taken care of the environment inthe modern industrial era post-World War II. DurlandFish, a professor of microbial diseases, forestry and en-vironmental studies at Yale University, isn’t surprisedZika has spread widely, given the proclivity of the Aedes mosquito (which is also responsible for spreading dengue fever and chikungunya virus) for in-habiting artificially human-made habitats like tires, cans,
plastic containers and rain barrels.“It doesn’t live in the ground, or
in swamps, or any other kinds of places where you would normallyfind mosquitoes,” reports Fish in arecent Washington Post article.“So humans have created an envi-ronment for it to proliferate, byhaving all of these water contain-ing containers around, and themosquito has adapted so well…it’sreally kind of a human parasite.It’s like the cockroach of the mos-quito world.”
And the mismanagement of urban waste is far from the onlyenvironmental factor in the spreadof Zika. Environmentalists pointout that dam-building and defor-estation are also significant con-tributors to increased amounts of standing water where Aedes mos-quitos can breed and come into
contact with growing human populations. Restoring nat-ural hydrological flows and leaving forests intact would
be good defense mechanisms against the spread of mos-quito-borne disease of all kinds.
But whether we can contain the warming of the planetas a result of human greenhouse gas emissions might bethe single biggest factor in whether we can prevent Zikafrom morphing into a global public health menace. TheWorld Health Organization (WHO) recently reported that predicted global average temperature increases of two tothree degrees Centigrade would make temperate lati tudeshotter, in turn exposing several hundred million more people to Aedes species mosquitoes. Malaria, denguefever and other mosquito-borne diseases would also surgealong with Zika.
“You have to do something about the mosquitoes, andthat’s strictly an environmental problem, there’s no med-ical applications to that,” concludes Fish. “And focusingon that as an environmental issue is going to have thegreatest impact on protecting people.”

Anew bill has been presented toCongress that could completely over-haul the entire credit reporting agencies.
Rep Maxine Waters, representing Los Ange-les’ 43rd District, proposed the legislation lastmonth. The “Comprehensive Consumer CreditReporting Reform Act of 2016” would, accord-ing to Waters’ office “overhaul the Americancredit reporting system so that it is fairer, moreaccurate, and less confusing for consumers.”
While the bill may have some upsides, there
are definite and potential consequences thatconsumers will incur as a result.There are parts of the bill which would benefit
everyone. The legislation would require for paidand settled debts to be removed from the credit
report within 45 days. It also switches the bur-den of responsibility to prove “accurate andcompleteness” of information within the reportsfrom the consumer to the creditor. This shouldmake it significantly less frustrating, time-inten-sive and laborious for consumers to contest in-
correct items which appear on their credit re- ports. These parts of the proposed legislationwould undoubtedly help every American con-sumer.
But the meat and potatoes within the billwould help certain individuals by shifting therisk to others.
The primary concern for consumers is achange to the time it would take for credit to bere-established. The bill shortens the amount of time most adverse credit information would stayon a consumer’s credit report to four years. Cer-tainly, consumers with prior credit blemisheswill view this as a positive for them.
