Were you slightly fearful that 2011 would be filled with vapid pop music created by soulless machines? Me too! I don’t think we have to worry though, if the past few months have been any indication then music this year might be quite delightful.
The first wave of super impressive releases have come from Sweden and the United Kingdom. Seriously the UK is killing it right now. Adele’s 21, Lykke Li’s Wounded Rhymes, Anna Calvi’s Anna Calvi, and PJ Harvey’s Let England Shake are all worthy of your immediate attention and affection, they’ll fill the void if you’ve been craving some fresh sounds. In the same respect, James Blake’s self-titled album is experimental to the point where your ears and brain may become confused and resist. Don’t let them. This is one that lives up to its hype.
Jessie J.’s debut album, Who You Are, has already dropped in the UK, to mixed reviews. It’s a little clumsy as a whole, however there are enough sweet spots to justify any obsessive fangirl behaviors you’ve displayed since watching these SB TV acoustic sessions. Meanwhile, stateside, Taylor Momsen’s Courtney Love tribute band, The Pretty Reckless, released 10 glorious tracks of tragic teen angst pop punk grunge. The album’s called Light Me Up, and it’s your new guilty pleasure.
One thing I’ve noticed about music this year is that nothing terribly exciting or interesting has come out of the United States. Has anyone else felt this way? Do we need to wait for the next Twilight soundrack? It’s possible that I just haven’t heard the right albums, in which case fill me in. Tell me about the US releases that’ve caught your attention.
Some very popular artists are releasing albums in 2011. Britney Spears‘ Femme Fatale and Lady Gaga’s Born This Way are dropping in March and May respectively. Maybe you’ve heard.
Also expected are new releases from Coldplay, Amy Winehouse, Adam Lambert, Kelly Clarkson, JT, Willow Smith, Death Cab For Cutie, Mars Volta, OutKast, Bon Iver, RHCP, Foo Fighters, Bright Eyes, the Decemberists, Passion Pit & Blink 182. Both La Roux and Paris Hilton are rumored to be releasing albums this year, however that’s what they said about The White Stripes. R.I.P.
These are some of the upcoming
albums that I’m excited about:
The Kills, Blood Pressure
Drop date: April 5
Before I loved Alison Mosshart in The Dead Weather, I loved her in The Kills. This album’s lead single, “DNA”, is already online and it’s bad-ass. If you’ve never checked the Kills out then get on it, you might find yourself with a new favorite rock star.
Beastie Boys, The Hot Sauce Committee, Part 2
Drop date: May 3
This will be the Beastie’s first non-instrumental studio album since 2005’s To The 5 Buroughs. The future of Part 1 is unknown, it was put on hold in 2009 when Adam ‘MCA’ Yauch was diagnosed with cancer. Just the fact that he’s well enough to make and release Part 2 is a BFD.
Kayne West & Jay-Z, Watch The Throne
Drop date: TBA
Remember how back in January the music press kept saying that this collaboration album would drop any! day! now! and so then we waited and waited and eventually heard one track, the hot mess “H.A.M.”? Remember that? Now we’re into the 2nd month of radio silence and I’m beginning to wonder whether this record actually exists.
No Doubt, Untitled
Drop date: First half 2011
When No Doubt went on hiatus in the early 00’s the world became a darker place. Fact. I have absolutely no clue what a modern day No Doubt record will sound like. Any guesses? I just hope that it won’t make those of us who remember Tragic Kingdom & the 1990s feel sad.
Drop date: [redacted]
Beyoncé’s forthcoming album is such a big deal that it’s actually a state secret. The only information on record came from the mouth of Sia, who was able to confirm that this album not only exists – it is basically finished.
The Jezabels, Untitled
Drop date: Mid-2011
If their past EPs are any indication, The Jezabel’s debut studio album is going to rock our world. This indie quartet from Sydney always get a warm reception on Autostraddle, definitely check them out if you haven’t already.
Fiona Apple, Untitled
Drop date: Spring 2011
During her 1997 VMA acceptance speech for Best New Artist, a young Fiona Apple ranted “the world is bullshit! you shouldn’t model your life on what we think is cool.” Sometimes I wonder whether its that unapologetic honesty and occasional crazy that makes her music so goddamn brilliant. Fiona Apple albums are few and far between, and none of them have disappointed yet.
Drop date: Late 2011
Geoff Barrow has advised that the new Portishead album will have [paraphrasing from this lengthy twitter rant] “NO additional fan content, NO bonus tracks, NO free downloads, NO remixes, NO hidden footage, NO acoustic sessions, NO radio edits and NO myspace, twitter, street teams or meet & greets. Just music & us.” He’s a giant twat, but I still believe.
Dr Dre, Detox
Drop date: TBA
It’ll be interesting to see whether Dr. Dre’s ‘final’ album can possibly meet the expectations of fans who’ve been waiting over 7 years. Dre’s already released two music videos from the album, “Kush” (ft. Snoop & Akon) and “I Need A Doctor” (ft. Eminem & Skylar Grey). As for the rest, rumors include a guest spot by La Roux and a duet from Beyoncé & Jay-Z.
Michelle Branch, Untitled
Drop date: Summer 2011
Michelle Branch broke hearts when she quit her solo pop/rock career to get married and form a country band, The Wreckers. I mean what was that all about, I still don’t know. At the end of last year Michelle announced that she’s returning to her roots, which we can only hope means releasing an album of sticky sweet love songs about boys who we’ll pretend are girls. She’s released a video of the album being recorded, however all it reveals is a fondness for flannel.
Florence + The Machine, Untitled
Drop date: Late 2011
Florence is the future of pop.
Special Comment from Stef
Drop date: Mid-year
Garbage were my first favourite band. Butch Vig made me want to learn how to mix records, and directly inspired me to go into the music industry as an adult. Shirley Manson introduced me to Siouxsie and the Banshees, the Pretenders, and all of her other influences, and her mouthy mid-90s interviews taught me how to be a woman. I still have close friends I met either at Garbage shows, through Garbage’s email list, or through the Garbage fansite I doggedly maintained for my entire adolescence.
That said, it was heartbreaking as I got older and noticed the obvious decline in Garbage’s music over the last two albums. While I appreciated the risks they took, beautifulgarbage was oftentimes ridiculous, and Bleed Like Me didn’t pack the lyrical punch of anything off the self-titled album or version 2.0. It’s not like I didn’t love these records – still bought all the singles and drove overnight to catch as many shows as possible – but something was different. Later singles like “Sex is not the enemy” and even “tell me where it hurts” were catchy enough, but didn’t kill me the way Version 2.0 still does 13 years later. When I caught the last show of their us tour in Vegas in 2005, I was both heartbroken and relieved. They were ahead of their time, but it was still time.
Because of this, I approach Garbage’s new album with a certain amount of trepidation. I can’t say I’m not curious about what new sounds they’ll introduce, as they’ve previously mixed electronic sounds with hip hop, classic rock, even Phil Spector melodies… But I’m also quite frankly worried. 2005’s Bleed Like Me was a perfectly nice rock album with a few decent standout tracks, but nothing on it quite measured up to classics like “Only Happy When It Rains,” “When I grow up” or “As Heaven Is Wide.”. Where early Garbage was about sex, pain and self loathing, later tracks were more anthemic, as though Manson fancied herself to be writing a slightly patronizing advice column to sad young girls. If Garbage are going to do another record, they have a lot to prove to their most loyal fans, and I hope this new album can pull it together. I’ve loved them fiercely through it all, and I just can’t have my heart broken again.
What albums are you looking forward to in 2011?
Saul Williams is coming out with a new album, Volcanic Sunlight, on May 2nd. I don’t think we have a tracklisting for it yet? Someone correct me if I’m wrong.
i haven’t listened to bright eyes’ new album ‘the people’s key’ yet, but it’s supposed to be amaaaazing.
It really is. GO DOWNLOAD IT RIGHT NOW, get the one with the bonuses on it. There are MAYBE two songs that on it that I don’t listen to regularly.
It’s like a way better Digital Ash.
Yes yes yes it is SO GOOD. So very good. It actually makes my undying love for them less of a guilty pleasure, and more of one I’m not so embarrassed about. It’s actually really brilliant, sort of in the vein of Cassadega…
Uh Huh Her just released an ep and talk of a full album at the end of the summer.
The Ting Tings are supposed to release their album sometime in April, I’ve been looking forward to hearing what they’ve come up with this time around.
Also An Horse has a new album coming out in April. The two songs I’ve heard so far have been pretty decent.
Your reminder of the death of The White Stripes still makes me a little sad….
I forgot to mention Beth Ditto, of Gossip, release a 4 song ep this month. There’s a video for “I Wrote the Book” and “Open Heart Surgery” is the other song I’m really digging.
I just came here to say basically everything you did, so thanks for that.
I already pre-ordered the new An Horse album and I’m sort of waiting with baited breath, although I did skip out on one of the packages that had pillowcases in it…
OH GOD I FORGOT AN HORSE
They were listed in the first draft, I don’t know what happened
hmm…there should be some sort of penalty for forgetting the Aussie band. No Tim Tams for a week? No vegemite for a month? :)
An Horse is love. Super excited for Walls to come out.
I had no idea Garbage was planning on putting out a new album! Or, rather, I knew they were “back in the studio,” but that’s been their status since, oh, 2008 or so. I, too, saw them on tour in 2005 (my first concert! …because I was a sheltered child who went crazy as an adult) and wished I had been able to see them in the Garbage/Version 2.0 days. I still loved the concert, and I still love them, but what Stef said is so true; their sound had become a bit blunter over the years, a bit more obviously polished, while the debut album and Version 2.0 carried these feelings of raw intensity–rage, sexuality, depression, etc.
To be fair, now that I am years removed from the disappointment of beautifulgarbage, I find that I like it a lot more (“Cup of Coffee” tears me apart), but only when I consider it as a separate entity and not as a Garbage album. I didn’t have as much of an aversion to Bleed Like Me, but I think that if it had been released right after Version 2.0, without the intervening WTF-ness of beautifulgarbage, I may have felt differently.
Also: ZOMG NEW KILLS ALBUM. I actually like the first single, “Satellite,” a lot more than “DNA,” but they’re both amazing. I’m so excited to see them live again in New York!
also, i love florence’s paragraph. it’s like, no explanation needed for florence fucking welch
YUCK! I cannot stop listening to Yuck’s self-titled February release. It makes me want to cry a little. I’m excited to see what’s gonna top it this year.
Michelle Branch – reason #17 I should have known I was gay. (Reasons #1-16 are all former WB female leads.)
I‘m looking 4ward 2 the new The Sounds record. But I already listened 2 it and, what can I say? Its a grower. I only listened 2 it once and the 2 singles „Something 2 Die 4“ & „Better Off Dead“ are the best. @ this time. as I said: it needs 2 grow.
And in april Boris will release 2 new records: „Heavy Rocks“ & „Attention Please“. They droped us the first single „Hope“ check it out here: http://www.sargenthouse.com/boris/Hope.mp3
And will Blaqk Audio release their record „Bright Black Heaven“ this year? I heard already „Ill Lit Ships“ & „Bon Voyeurs“ & „Down Here“. There R rumours, the record is about a hooker? http://soundcloud.com/blaqkaudio
And: I‘m really really looking 4ward 2 the UHH EP „Black & Blue“ and album! They sell the EP through their website and hopefully the whole new record later this year.
THE SOUNDS HAVE A NEW ALBUM COMING OUT?!
I just. How do I keep missing these things?!
welcome 2 the club. take off Ur coat & stay a while!
So crazy. So now they’ve gone from four years between the first and second albums to three years between the second and third to two years between the third and fourth. Does this mean I can expect a new album from them next spring? Because that would be awesome.
That’s the kind of logic I can get behind! I hope you’re right.
Oh yay, new Fiona Apple?!?! I’m very curious about this new No Doubt as well.
Björk also has an album in the works :D
I’m very much looking forward to the Thao & Mirah album coming out 4/26. They’ve already released one of their songs from the album and it has tUnE-yArDs and I’m pretty much addicted to it already.
Also- I’m going to have to second Crystal’s love of the new PJ Harvey and Lykke Li albums. There’s also a really good Fresh Air interview w/ PJ Harvey about the new album that was super interesting.
Thao! Mirah! I really like it when my favorites decide to take over the world together!
Also I think they are dating?
is it just me or does it seem like 2011 will be the year of the 90’s comeback artist?
also, radiohead’s new album is fantastic.
Agreed! I was a bit weirded out that no one’s talking about the new Radiohead, especially when referencing new UK releases.
So excited for Fiona Apple and Garbage, my love for Shirley Manson will never end
wait… NOBODY MENTIONED THE STROKES! Angles comes out Tuesday.
I know what I’ll be doing on Tuesday. All day Tuesday.
AAAGGHH new saul williams album??!??!
Have you heard Explain My Heart? Here you go.
oh and ani is supposed to come out with one this year.
I heard that as well. I was disappointed by Red Letter Year for the most part, but I still have high hopes for the next one. After hearing some of the new stuff she’s played live, I’m moderately excited. It looks like she’s digging way back to 20s and 30s folk for inspiration on some of them. And I love me some 20s and 30s roots music.
on the one hand this is very exciting and I will pay attention, on other hand, has a year ever existed in which ani does not come out with an album.
Well, Red Letter year came out in 2008, so it’s actually been a while since she’s released a studio album.
Also, new Primus album this year! Fuck yeah!!
I thought Justin Timberlake was never making music again. I AM SO EXCITED. Also Bon Iver and Michelle Branch are superexciting.
Bon Iver? Actual, real Bon Iver? I won’t lie, I’m very disappointed with his more recent, experimental stuff. But that’s just me. I’ll keep my fingers crossed.
I CANNOT WAIT for Adam Lambert’s new music!!! He is exciting, charismatic, mindblowing and I love his surprises! When he sings it is all I need in this Mad World!!!
No one has mentioned Panic! At The Disco. I’m incredibly excited for that. :D
YES, Florence and No Doubt!
The record company just sent me the new Panic! album. It didn’t hook me as much as ‘A Fever’ did, but if you dig PATD’s sound then I think you’ll find it rather enjoyable.
I listened to the stream they had up on Facebook. It sounded a lot like the first half of A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out, and since soooo many bands/artists have kinda done that rock + electronic based pop music since then, it sounds really repetitious and not that good. Which was really disappointing.
Well their lyricist left them a while back to for the band Young Veins, didn’t he? So they lost some of the cleverness and wit that made me love them and just kept the sound, which is good but not great.
i don’t really crush on celebrities but OMG Alison Mosshart! when i saw her on the videoclip for Cat Claw i knew i had to marry her.
I’m more excited than I probably should be for Blink’s new album. I just hope it sounds in the vein of the self-titled. ‘Cause that was one motherfucking brilliant record.
And Thursday is coming out with a new album in April, which I’m super excited for. They’ve been playing songs of it on the tour they just did where they played Full Collapse in its entirety. The one the NYC show got was pretty good.
Flogging Molly’s lastest is going to be out in May, I think. I’m always excited to hear new things from them.
Excited for Bjork and Fleet Foxes!
The Strokes are releasing a new album on Tuesday! So pumped.
And Chiddy Bang are releasing their first album this year, apparently, which I’m super excited for since their EPs are all amazing.
But mostly I’m excited for Fiona Apple. Had no idea that was happening.
Michelle Branch, No Doubt, Amy Winehouse in my que list for download.
DARREN HAYES DARREN HAYES DARREN HAYES
god: I totally 4get the Shiny Toy Guns! They release their 3rd album “III” this year and they R back 2gether with Carah Faye.
Funny, I did to, been on my ipod playlist for months…..
Yelle! Yelle has a new album coming out in eighteen days (not that I’m counting or anything). “Safari Disco Club” is the single from it that was released in January, I think, and there’s an interesting music video for it that’s out.
I don’t usually track bands’ release dates. I usually just find out that they released a new album a month ago and then track it down and buy it. Not usually this neurotic, but I found out that Yelle’s new album was going to be released about two weeks ago.
2010 was a pretty great year for music, IMO. I hope 2011 will be good.
Thank you for posting this! I had no idea! I had sort of been resigned to, like, one new Yelle song a year, but an entire album? And it’s less than three weeks away? This has totally made my night!
And by eighteen I actually meant eight! Which is even more exciting. I’m fairly certain it comes out the 29th of March.
I’ve been listen to Safari Disco Club on repeat for the past week.
I can’t figure out how I missed this news: not only do I follow Yelle on twitter, but the other day someone gave me a mix with Safari Disco Club on it…I just didn’t make the connection that there was actually a new record. I’m really oblivious! And really excited!!
The album is good ;) I was able to get an advance copy and she does not disappoint. I can’t wait to see her live in concert, she’s absolutely adorable, so full of energy.
New Blondie album. Nuff said.
YEEEESSSSSSSSSS. Debbie Harry is my god.
Can’t wait for Adam Lambert’s sophomore album. He’s the bomb. No one in the music industry got his singing chops and he’s gorgeous to look at too.
I propose Joan as Police Woman’s new album as something exciting to come out stateside this year. Smooooooth, sexy, funky music. Did I mention sexy, omg.
AH so so so excited for Fiona Apple and No Doubt.
Also The Pretty Reckless album has definitely become my newest guilty pleasure. I have an embarrassing love and fascination of Taylor Momsen. I can’t tell if I want to be her, make out with her, or scold her for always looking so angry…but whatever it is, I love it!
ugh I love her too. I would do all three of those things to her. She is great.
gotta add alison krauss & union station (new EP April 12th). most decorated female artist of all time, at least by Grammy count. voice of an angel. and she knows her way around a fiddle. badass. take me for longing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vei0RqYxKFQ
Thank you Crystal! I live and die for Fiona Apple and had given up on her making another record after Sony shelved her last one and only released it after an online petition pressured them to leak 4 tracks and then re-produce the whole thing.
I am so fucking excited that she is new music coming out! I never would’ve known I had this to look forward to! Thank you so much!
These are also my feelings.
Kurt Vile’s album, Smoke Ring for My Halo came out March 7th.
Song, “Society is My Friend”
Broken Bells has a new EP called, “Meyrin Fields”
The Ravonettes’ new album, “Raven in the Grave”
Architecture In Helinski’s new album, “Moment Bends”
Explosions In The Sky’s new album, “Take Care, Take Care, Take Care”
Stevie Nicks’s new album, “In Your Dreams”
Okkervil River’s new ablum, “I Am Very Far”
Arctic Monkeys’ new album, “Suck It And See”
I’m pumped for Bon Iver’s and Fiona Apple’s new albums.
Patrick Wolf – Lupercalia
No new GWAR album? >:( >:( >:(
Looking forward to the absurdity that is sure to be Tyler the Creator’s Goblin.
Childish Gambino released an EP a couple weeks ago that I love because I am obsessed with every word that comes out of Donald Glover’s mouth.
It’s rumored that Beyonce worked with Sleigh Bells on one of the songs from her mystery album. If this is true, I expect my ears to hop off the sides of my head and do a happy dance upon listening.
An Horse: Walls
:D its going to be awesome!
thnak you for this – Portishead, No Doubt, Fiona Apple, and Garbage Yeah! and also The Kills
Full length The Jezabels album!!!!!!!!!
I’ve been addicted to them ever since I watched them opening for Tegan and Sara in Sydney last year.
That Portishead statement was really douchey.
And James Blake does live up to the hype.
stevie nicks and florence! i cant wait.
and bc the high school girl in me still loves davey havok — Blacq Audio’s Bright Black Heaven is due early this year, too!
bright eyes’ new album already came out! “The people’s key” – not really my favourite album of the year though…
From the list – I am looking forward to:
Fiona Apple, Florence + The Machine, Portishead, Garbage
Not from the list – I am looking forward to:
Blackfield “Welcome To My DNA” (vinyl = preordered), Anneke van Giersbergen, Devin Townsend is expected to release three albums this year, Lacuna Coil, Opeth, Within Temptation, SOUNDGARDEN, Killswitch Engage, Danger Mouse & Daniele Luppi (w/vocal collabs w/Jack White & Norah Jones), possible Blur reunion album
Also, Mount Moriah’s debut album is coming out April 12th. They are definitely a band to watch this year. http://www.mountmoriahband.com/
oh BY THE WAY
“Kate Bush releases an unusual new album “Director’s Cut” on May 16 on her own label Fish People, in conjunction with EMI.
On “Directors Cut” Kate revisits a selection of tracks from her albums “The Sensual World” and “The Red Shoes”, a process that presents a fascinating portrait of an artist in a constant state of evolution. She has re-recorded some elements whilst keeping the best musical performances of each song – making it something of a director’s cut but in sound, not vision”
THE STROKES WENT UNMENTIONED!
THIS IS UNJUST!
For fans of The Strokes: Angles is the $3.99 download at Amazon today http://amzn.to/eZ20Zq (today only 22-Mar-11, don’t know if this is U.S. only)
The amazing JD Sampson (of Le Tigre fame) has put together a new outfit by the name of ‘MEN’…a trans-aware, politically savvy group that brings indie disco into the queer realm. Their debut album ‘Talk About Body’ was released in February and the tracks I’ve been able to get my hands on sound pretty amazing.


HP's second quarter numbers had little good news for the company's printer business and, by extension, its dwindling operations in Oregon and Southwest Washington.
Printer shipments were down 27 percent in the quarter, with commercial printing leading the way with a 36 percent drop.
HP's imaging and printing business is down to 16 percent of the company's revenue, from 18.2 percent in the same quarter last year.
Update: Listened in intermittently to HP's conference call, where the company disclosed that it will cut another 2 percent of its work force (without giving specifics on where), and CEO Mark Hurd weighed in on the future of the printer business:
Once the economy recovers, he said, HP's printer business will be well positioned to grow in the low to mid single digits and capitalize on the shift to digital printing:
"We look at the market as being a low single-digit growth market, and we like our opportunity to gain share within it."
HP shares fell $1.77, 4.8 percent, in after-hours trading.

Finarte's Kuhmo rug combines Finnish rag rug traditions with the rich colour palette of India. The rug is crafted using traditional Finnish weaving techniques, but the material comes from surplus fabrics of the Indian textile industry.
As their name kind of suggests, the original idea of Finnish rag rugs was to make use of leftover materials. Traditionally, the rugs were made using upcycled fabrics, or rags, if you will, in an effort to not let anything go to waste. Therefore, the rugs are always unique in their colour and pattern depending on the materials used for each one.
Hand-woven in India, the Kuhmo rugs follow this tradition by having local leftover fabrics as their material: the rugs are made of sari clothing offcuts. Due to both the manufacturing process and the special leftover material, each Kuhmo rug is a unique example of exquisite artisanship, beautifully fusing the traditions of Finland and India. As is common for traditional rag rugs, the Kuhmo rug can also be used upside down.

There have been great advances in understanding the many useful functions of Vitamin D, besides the well-known benefits for supporting healthy bones. Vitamin D has a role in immune support, both in decreasing the risk of breast and prostate cancer. It also helps to modulate other diseases such as multiple sclerosis, autoimmune disorders, and inflammatory bowel disease. There is growing proof that Vitamin D is a key player in moods, giving a new meaning to its nickname “sunshine vitamin!”
We now know many of us have diets deficient in Vitamin D; this is true for greater than 70 percent of women older than 50, and up to 90 percent of women older than 70! Measuring your blood for Vitamin D is a cost-effective and important test for ensuring adequacy of this important nutrient.
Vitamin D can be made by the body when the skin is exposed to sunshine, but few people get enough sunlight each day to create adequate amounts, and those that do wear sunscreen that prevents this conversion (or they ought to, since UV rays cause damage as well as converting cholesterol in the skin to Vitamin D).
The type of Vitamin D you use for replacement is important. Vitamin D3 is the active form, versus Vitamin D2, which must be converted to D3 in our bodies. Some people do not convert D2 easily, so we recommend supplementing with D3.
At IMA, we carry an active D3 product; 1,000 to 2,000, units/day is the recommended dosage. However, 4,000 units/day is not unusual. Daily doses of 50,000 to 200,000 units/week of D3 may be required for correcting deficiencies.
Another recent development shows that Vitamin D is important for muscle as well as bone health. In fact, Vitamin D may help decrease muscle pain and weakness caused by D deficiency and may have potential value in patients with fibromyalgia. In the elderly, Vitamin D helps improve strength and balance and decreases falls and fractures; it is also helping patients with Parkinson?s disease!

Mark McGhee has backed goalkeeper Graeme Smith for a call-up to the Scotland squad, says the Daily Star. Smith's man-of-the-match performance in Nancy on Thursday kept Motherwell's UEFA Cup hopes alive and McGhee believes it will not be long before the 25-year-old forces his way into the national set-up.
"Graeme was terrific against Nancy. It wasn't just his saves, but he did the basics well and really took a command of his area," said McGhee.
"If he continues to play like that then he has got to come into George Burley's thoughts.
"He has got to cut out the odd mistake and keep a good level of consistency, but he has definitely shown he is good enough."

When did Tootsie Rolls come out?
On this day in 1896, a candymaker from Austria named Leo Hirschfield opened his shop in New York City. Never heard of him? You’ve definitely heard of his work. As the story goes, in that shop Hirschfield came up with one of the twentieth century’s iconic candies: the humble Tootsie Roll.
Why are they called Tootsie Rolls?
The first candy that Hirschfield created was Bromangelon Jelly Powder. He completed the invention of Tootsie Rolls in 1907, after patenting a technique to give them their unique texture. He named the candy after his daughter Clara, whose nickname was “Tootsie“.
Did they stop making Tootsie Rolls?
“Surveys showed they were the least popular flavors,” explained Ellen Gordon, president and chief operating officer of Tootsie Roll Industries Inc. “So we discontinued making them. He named the new confection after his 5-year-old daughter, whose nickname was “Tootsie.”
What is the oldest candy bar?
The Chocolate Cream bar created by Joseph Fry in 1866 is the oldest candy bar in the world. Although Fry was the first to start pressing chocolate into bar molds in 1847, the Chocolate Cream was the first mass-produced and widely available candy bar.
How bad are Tootsie Rolls for you?
Less expensive than animal fats, it is a trans fat that can raise a person’s risk of developing heart disease, according to Health Canada. That’s because it raises levels of low-density lipoprotein or “bad” cholesterol. Tootsie Rolls contain one gram of trans fats.
Whats the worst candy for you?
The 5 Least Healthy Candy Options
- Candy Corn. It has a reputation as being one of the most hated candies, and an October 2018 CandyStore.com survey on the best and worst Halloween candy suggested this festive confection is indeed the second-most hated — second to Circus Peanuts.
- Gummy Bears.
- Jelly Beans.
Are Tootsie Rolls bad for dogs?
Richter. It may also cause vomiting and diarrhea, but if too much is consumed, especially by small dogs, there can be a problem. Almond Joys, Reese’s, M&Ms, Snickers, Kit Kats, Twix, Tootsie Rolls, dark chocolate, Butterfingers, and Milky Ways are dangerous in quantities of more than 10 grams.
Did Tootsie Rolls save Marines?
During the Korean War, the First Marine Division met the enemy at Chosin mountain reservoir in subfreezing temperatures. Soon, pallets of Tootsie Roll candies parachuted from the sky to the First Marine Division! While they were not ammunition, this candy from the sky provided well needed nourishment for the troops.
What do tootsie rolls taste like?
Tootsie rolls dont quite taste like chocolate. They have a “cocoa” and “subtle fruit flavor” according to their website.
Does Hershey own Tootsie Rolls?
Tootsie Roll has acquired several famous confectionery brands over the years, including Cella’s Confections, Charms, Andes Candies, and Concord Confections.
Two confectioner stocks square off in a battle of dividend fundamentals.
|Trailing-12-month profit margin||11.3%||10.5%|
Are Tootsie Rolls popular?
No Halloween candy haul is complete without them. Invented in 1896 by a Brooklyn food tinkerer, Tootsie Rolls have become one of the most ubiquitous sweet treats in the world, with tens of millions produced every day.
Are Tootsie Pops smaller?
Tootsie Pops are known and loved by adults and kids around the world, and they’re available today in more flavors than ever before. Tootsie Pops now come in a bunch with many specialty flavors! These Tootsie Bunch Pops are a little smaller than the original but just as good.
How old is the Tootsie Pop commercial?
Since Mr. Owl first dared to unravel one of the confectionary world’s most puzzling secrets in the classic 1970 TV commercial, dedicated Tootsie Pop fans everywhere have tried to provide a definitive answer. Many have attempted, and failed, to lick their way to the center of the Tootsie Pop.
How many Tootsie Rolls are made per day?
We produce 64 million Tootsie Rolls a day.

For my final blog post, I wanted to focus on W.C. Handy’s “St. Louis Blues” and how it has evolved and survived throughout the years as a jazz standard. I am particularly interested in its history because I will be performing the Bob Brookmeyer arrangement with Jazz 1 on Friday, November 22nd at 7:30 pm in the Pause Main Stage (hey, nobody said we can’t use these blog posts to advertise!)
The song itself first originated from W.C. Handy’s Blues: An Anthology, which Handy used to portray blues music as folk music (even though there were some complications with classifying it as such.) But nonetheless, it was touted as such by Handy as “The First Successful Blues Published.” Its success not only comes from its publishing, but arguably its legacy as a standard as performed by various blues and jazz artists. For the sake of the length of this blog, I am going to include 5 performers who are icons for their place in jazz history: Bessie Smith, Louis Armstrong, Dizzy Gillespie, Dave Brubeck, and the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra.
In Bessie Smith’s version, she ignores the tango-like interlude and the beginning she enters with the melody and the 12-bar blues form, accompanied by an organ and none other than Louis Armstrong responding on trumpet to her lyrics . Her version may not be authentic to Handy’s original composition, but she owns this version and it well represents the NOLA jazz sound:
Moving into the swing era, with the likes of big bands such as Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Cab Calloway, and, as I will present here, Glenn Miller. The Glenn Miller Orchestra was very well-known for its standards like “Pennsylvania 6-5000” and “In the Mood,” but when Glenn Miller was enlisted to serve in Europe during World War II, he made sure to keep his music going. Here is his version of St Louis Blues presented as a march:
From the Swing era, jazz musicians started to get a little more adventurous with exploring different textures in rhythm and harmony. Musicians like Charlie Parker, Max Roach, and Dizzy Gillespie were at the forefront of the bebop era by taking old standards such as St Louis Blues and creating bebop-ified version of their roots in Handy’s composition. Here is Dizzy Gillespie’s version, this time featuring the tango interlude that could likely be attributed to Dizzy’s fondness of Afro-Cuban music as he explored in “Manteca” or “A Night in Tunisia”:
On the other side of the same coin, West Coast cool jazz coexisted with bebop as a mainstay in jazz music in the ’50s and ’60s. Still using the St Louis Blues standard, Dave Brubeck also uses that tango beginning, but goes into the form with a lighter feel in comparison to Dizzy Gillespie, which is apparent in Paul Desmond’s improv solo, which couldn’t possibly be lighter or more laidback:
To close the blog post, I leave you with Bob Brookmeyer’s arrangement of St Louis Blues as performed by the Thad Jones/Mel Louis Orchestra. While it may not necessarily be faithful to Handy’s original idea for St. Louis Blues, it represents a culmination of St Louis Blues’ place in jazz history:
 Hagstrom-Miller, Karl. “How Blues Became Folk Music” in Segregating Sound (North Carolina: Duke University Press, 2010). 241-274.

There’s quite a bit of Dodgers programming on MLB Network this weekend and into next week, and it’s all related to Jackie Robinson.
On the original MLB schedule, the Dodgers were slated to host the Cardinals on April 15, the anniversary of Robinson’s 1947 major league debut. This is the second year since 1956 that no MLB games will be played on April 15, joining the strike-shortened 1995 season.
Beginning Saturday through Wednesday, three Dodgers games from Jackie Robinson Day will be shown on MLB Network:
1997, Dodgers at Mets (Saturday, 10 a.m. PT, and 8 p.m.): On the 50th anniversary of Robinson’s debut, number 42 was retired throughout Major League Baseball. New York won this game 5-0, and Toby Borland had the only four-inning save against the Dodgers in the last 30 years.
2009, Giants at Dodgers (Sunday, 1 p.m.): Clayton Kershaw struck out 13 in seven innings, allowing only one hit, but his 2-1 lead was blown by the bullpen. The Dodgers rallied to tie in the eighth inning, then beat the Giants in the ninth on a walk-off walk by James Loney.
2012, Padres at Dodgers (Wednesday, noon): Dee Gordon won the game with a walk-off single, and Matt Kemp was red-hot to start the season, with two singles and a home run. From my recap: “Kemp is now hitting a sublime .487/.523/1.026 with six home runs and 16 RBI through 10 games.”
There’s more Jackie Robinson-related programming on MLB Network this weekend, including Ken Griffey Jr. talking about wearing number 42 to honor Robinson on Play Ball (Saturday, 7 a.m. and 9 p.m.):
You can find the full MLB Network schedule here.

In an e-mail interview, Abraham, 22, said an online program makes it easier to juggle her work and parenting responsibilities, while avoiding any problems that might crop up with students and teachers who could not handle themselves around me.

Of course, we can’t forget that Farrah is also a single mom to her adorable daughter, Sophia, and balancing mommy duties with pole dancing classes, potential radio shows, and interviews on Howard Stern is no walk in the park. “Sophia is sleeping, I am working like always,” Farrah posted to Keek on August 15. “And dang it is hard being a single mom…wow it’s been a tough week being a single parent. Goodnight, guys.” Sophia is basically a perfect angel (aside from her addiction to the dreaded “passy”), so we can only assume Farrah’s mommy problems stem from being overloaded with work.

Jessica Borstelj is more than happy to saddle up as a volunteer for Riding Develops Abilities (RDA) Doveton.
The 15-year-old student’s dedication was recognised at the 2019 Casey Volunteer Awards in July, as a joint recipient of the Young Volunteer prize.
The other joint recipient was Tarali Bendix, who at 11 years old coaches Berwick Flames Basketball Club junior coach.
Each fortnight, Jessica travels from Mt Waverley to help feed, groom and prepare the stable of horses.
She doesn’t avoid the less glamorous chores such as cleaning paddocks and water troughs.
The pay-off isn’t to ride the horses – they’re solely for the children and adults with a disability which is what the RDA charity is all about.
“It’s really nice to see them enjoying it. It’s an escape for them.
“I wanted to get more involved in horses. It’s a great way to improve my knowledge and improve other people’s lives.”
She keeps a close eye on the vets examining the steeds. She hopes to be an equine vet or involved elsewhere in the ‘horse industry’.
As for the volunteer award, she says it’s a fitting recognition for the RDA and its loyal volunteers.
“It’s really amazing to see all our hard work to help RDA has been recognised and seen.”

Senate to find funds for razed building
‘We must protect our historical sites such as this significant architectural inheritance,’ she said
The Senate on Monday vowed to look for funding to help restore the Manila Central Post Office after a massive fire engulfed the iconic building.
In a tweet, Senator Juan Edgardo “Sonny” Angara, who chairs the Senate Committee on Finance, said that Senate President Juan Miguel “Migz” Zubiri relayed this promise to him.
“SP Zubiri messaged that we have to work with the budget department towards finding funds to help restore the Post office (which had a fire),” Angara’s tweet read.
“Agree it’s a national treasure — designed by national artist Juan Arellano,” he added.
‘Probe cause of fire’
Meanwhile, Senator Loren Legarda called on authorities to investigate the cause of the fire “so that this occurrence will never happen again.”
In a separate statement, Legarda, who chairs the Senate Committee on Culture and the Arts, stressed the importance of the Manila Central Post Office as an architectural inheritance.
“We must protect our historical sites such as this significant architectural inheritance,” she said.
She noted that she was “deeply saddened” by the reports that the Manila Central Post Office, one of the historic buildings in the country and declared an Important Cultural Property, was engulfed by a massive fire that started late night Sunday.
Having been built in 1926, the lawmaker said that the building is “one of the oldest and most iconic structures in the Philippines that have been an essential part of our history, surviving many calamities and the Battle of Manila during World War II.”
“Before the fire incident, the decades-old structure still provides postal services besides operating a museum,” she said. “It is indeed a tragic and heartbreaking incident.”
The fire at Manila Central Post Office, which was destroyed during World War II and rebuilt in 1946, was declared under control at around 7 a.m. Monday.

This Sunday, at the 11th hour, on the 11th day, of the 11th month, people around the country will pause to remember all those who have served and sacrificed for our country.
There will be three Remembrance Day ceremonies across Casey for the community to attend:
- Berwick: 10.40 am start at Berwick War Memorial on High Street
- Cranbourne: 11.00 am start at the Cranbourne Cenotaph, Greg Clydesdale Square, High Street, Cranbourne
- Endeavour Hills: 11.00 am start the Endeavour Hills Peace Memorial, Heatherton Road
The City of Casey, in partnership with the City of Greater Dandenong, is also supporting a special event on Remembrance Day which will honour a local World War II militia unit by naming a bridge in Narre Warren after them.
The pedestrian bridge over the Monash Freeway, on Prospect Hill Road, Narre Warren will be named after the Gippsland Regiment - the locally raised and based militia unit which served in the Papua New Guinea campaign during World War II.
There will be a large community event taking place to commemorate the bridge naming, with veterans and family of the Gippsland Regiment, also known as the 52nd Battalion which was named to preserve the history of the battalion of that number which fought at the famous battle of Villers Bretonneux in World War I.
The naming event will be held from 1.00 pm to 4.00 pm, with a number of local community groups and special guests involved.
There will be speeches from Vietnam Veteran and Dja Dja Wurrung and Yorta Yorta Elder Graham Atkinson, Consul-General of Japan Kazuyoshi Matsunaga and Colonel Mike Kalms, Colonel Training 4th Brigade.
The event will also include a parade lead by 5th/6th Battalion the Royal Victoria Regiment Navy and Air Force Cadets, a flyover by Peninsula Aero Club, singing by Dandenong’s’ ‘With One Voice’ choir, a Piper, a Remembrance Service and wreath and flower laying opportunity.
Anyone wishing to attend are encouraged to register by calling the Dandenong Cranbourne RSL on 9792 1535. Parking for members of the public is at Max Pawsey Reserve, Narre Warren, with a shuttle service from there operating from 12.30 pm.

Antibiotic use is associated with a considerable increase in the chance of getting inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, according to the findings of a new study that analyzed more than 6 million medical data.
The findings of the study, which were presented in the journal Gut of the British Medical Association (BMA), demonstrated that there was a dose-dependent increase in the risk of IBD, with the largest risk being shown in patients who were using nitroimidazoles and fluoroquinolones. These medications are frequently used to treat infections that occur in the digestive tract.
According to the findings of the study, even a single course of antibiotics can cause damage to the microbiota of the gut that can last for up to a year and raise the risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and colorectal cancer. Antimicrobial resistance is a developing problem that is estimated to kill 10 million people per year by the year 2050. Excessive use of antibiotics is one of the contributing factors to this problem.
The research also discovered that emulsifiers, which are a popular food ingredient that may be found in items like mayonnaise, salad dressings, baked goods, and ice cream, can cause inflammation and colitis in animal models of the digestive tract. According to the findings of the study, excessive use of antibiotics may cause IBD.
The most common forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Ulcerative colitis is a condition that affects only the lining of the large intestine and is characterized by a wide range of symptoms, including urgency and frequency of bowel movements, incontinence, bloody stool, abdominal pain, cramping, persistent diarrhea, loss of appetite, and unexpected weight loss.
On the other hand, Crohn’s disease can manifest itself at any point along the gastrointestinal system, but it most commonly impacts the small intestine or the beginning of the large intestine. It can result in fistulas, scarring, constriction of the gastrointestinal system, stomach discomfort, constipation, diarrhea, loss of appetite, exhaustion, and weight loss that is sudden and unexpected.
According to the findings of the study, the risk of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) was highest in the first two years after finishing a course of antibiotics, and the risk of Crohn’s disease was greater than that of ulcerative colitis. The risk of inflammatory bowel disease increased with each subsequent exposure to antibiotics, with the largest risk being shown in patients who had taken five or more prescriptions of antibiotics.
According to the findings of the study, persons aged 10 to 40 years had a likelihood of developing IBD that was increased by28%, those aged 40 to 60 years had a likelihood that was increased by 48%, and individuals aged 60 years and over had a likelihood that was increased by 47%.
Dr. Adam Faye, who is affiliated with the Grossman School of Medicine at New York University and was the primary investigator of the study, emphasized the significance of minimizing the use of antibiotics and exercising caution when prescribing them to treat infections that are likely to clear up on their own or that are more likely to be caused by viruses. According to him, this would not only assist to lower the risk of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but it will also help to lessen the rising problem of antibiotic resistance. The research did not prove that antibiotic use causes inflammatory bowel disease; all it did was find a correlation between the two.
In conclusion, the study emphasizes the need of being more attentive to the use of antibiotics and the possible influence they have on the microbiome of the gut as well as the health of the individual as a whole.
It also throws light on the necessity of conducting a further study into the environmental elements that lead to inflammatory bowel disease as well as the development of novel therapies for the ailment.

War Dog Program at Fort Robinson
More About War Dogs
During World War II, Fort Robinson was one of the key forts tasked with training dogs and soldiers for the War Dog program. Below is more information and images from History Nebraska collections from Fort Robinson during the War Dog Training Program.
For centuries, militaries have used dogs for various purposes. Germany, Japan, and England all had dog units during World War II. Shortly after Pearl Harbor, a group of prominent American civilians created Dogs For Defense, Inc. to convince the military to create its own dog program. The secretary of war created such a program in February of 1942. Almost all of the dogs used in the program, which was coordinated by Dogs For Defense, were donated. By the end of the war, 18,000 dogs were used.
Fort Robinson was one of two army bases used to train K-9 units. (The other was Front Royal, Virginia.) Its remote location and connection to the railroad made it an ideal place to train dogs.
On October 3, 1942, the K-9 division of Fort Robinson accepted its first shipment of dogs. Several days later, the first trainees arrived. Both civilian and military trainers were used to train military personnel how to use the dogs. Each trainee had to feed and groom his own set of dogs. After two weeks of basic training, the trainees and dogs were sorted into different groups for specialized training, which took four to six weeks.
The primary use for the dogs was as sentries or attack dogs. These dogs had to be trained to get used to gunfire and violence. Other dogs served as scouts, messengers or sled dogs. The biggest risk of working with dogs was dog bites. Corporal George Henne was bitten several times while at the Fort. “[Corporal Henne] found that it does not pay to hold your hand in front of one of the trained dogs too long,” a newspaper reported. Many of the dogs were sent to guard bases and Prisoner of War camps, while others were sent overseas.
At the height of operations in 1944, Fort Robinson had 1,353 dogs on hand and had deployed 3,565. The people who donated the dogs often wrote to see how their dogs were doing. The staff usually responded to the letters. One eleven-year-old asked, “…if I can put a star in my window because I gave you my dog.”
The program was ended after the war came to a close.

The importance of sustainability extends beyond just our diet and lifestyle choices—it encompasses every aspect of our daily routines, including healthcare. As we become increasingly aware of the impact of pharmaceuticals on the environment, there is a growing need to adopt eco-conscious practices when it comes to managing our health.
From mindful consumption and disposal to exploring sustainable alternatives, prioritizing eco-friendly practices in medication usage serves as a vital step toward fostering a healthier planet for generations to come.
Downsize Your Medicine Cabinet
Downsizing your medicine cabinet can be a mindful approach to simplify your medicine routine and reduce clutter. You can achieve this by carefully evaluating your medication needs and properly disposing of expired or unused medications. Another way to reduce waste is by prioritizing multipurpose products, resisting the temptation to buy unnecessary products, and minimizing duplicates.
A downsized medicine cabinet not only promotes a clutter-free environment but also encourages cautious consumption and fosters a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle.
Dispose of Medications Properly
It is important to dispose of medications properly to safeguard the environment and other people. Throwing unused or expired medications in the trash or flushing them down the toilet is not recommended as it can pollute water sources and cause harm to wildlife. Rather, it is advisable to adhere to specific guidelines provided by pharmacies, law enforcement, or waste management. Numerous communities offer drug take-back programs that provide safe disposal of medications.4
If medication disposal at your pharmacy or drug take-back programs are not readily available in your area, some medications can be mixed with undesirable substances such as coffee grounds and cat litter and placed in sealed containers before being thrown away. Below are steps to take recommended by the FDA.2
Disposing of medications in household trash:
Remove drugs from their original packaging and mix them with something undesirable such as coffee grounds, dirt, or cat litter. This makes this medication less appealing to children and pets. It also disguises the substance for someone who may go through the trash looking for drugs.
Put the mixture into something that you can seal such as a container or re-sealable zipper storage bag.
Put the container in the garbage.
Scratch off all personal information on the empty medicine packaging and throw this packaging away as well. Remember to recycle any eligible packaging.
The FDA has also provided a list of medications that can be safely flushed, but this method should be used as a last resort. By disposing of medications responsibly, we can prevent accidental ingestion, reduce the risk of substance misuse, and prevent pollutants from interfering with the ecosystem.1
Minimize Waste When Buying Medications
Minimizing the amount of packaging used for medications is an environmentally responsible practice that can significantly reduce waste. One way to achieve this is by filling your prescription for only the required amount of medication, instead of getting a larger quantity that may go unused and ultimately end up in landfills. Another approach is to choose medications that come with minimal packaging, such as those that come in bulk or blister packs. For long-term medications, opting for larger quantities can also help reduce packaging waste.
In addition, refillable prescriptions and medication packaging services are becoming increasingly popular options for those looking to reduce their environmental footprint. These services allow patients to receive their medications in a single, refillable container, rather than multiple containers that may end up being discarded. By making these small changes, individuals can do their part to help protect the environment and reduce waste.
By adopting sustainable medication practices, we can take care of our healthcare needs in an eco-friendly and responsible way. These practices include downsizing, properly disposing of expired or unwanted medications, choosing eco-friendly packaging, and making sustainable purchasing decisions. When we make these choices, we contribute to a healthier planet and ensure that our healthcare needs are met without harming the environment.

The reason is that some fish are high in salt. Salt is one of the main risk factors for high blood pressure and other forms of heart disease. The NHS recommended daily salt intake is around six grams.
Meanwhile, BPUK says examples of “high salt” fish include dried fish. Other foods include:
• Tomato ketchup
• Canned, bagged and chilled soups
• Beef, chicken and vegetable stock cubes
• Granules of sauce
• Soya sauce
• Curry powders
• Ready-to-use sandwiches
• Microwave and frozen meals
• Breaded chicken products
Staying away from high salt items can significantly reduce the risk of high blood pressure. BPUK recommends marinating “meat or fish in lemon or lime, or with yogurt or spices” as this “avoids having to add salt for flavor”.
While salt is used to add flavor and removing it can take it away, they reassure: “If the food tastes bland to begin with, don’t give up. After a few weeks, your taste buds will adjust and you’ll start to enjoy less salty foods, like switching to unsweetened tea.

Meanwhile, a recent study has highlighted just how much of a difference reducing salt in the diet could make.
According to research published in the British Medical Journal Prevention & Health, a one-gram reduction in daily salt intake could prevent around nine million cases of stroke and heart disease in China alone.
China currently has one of the highest average daily salt intakes in the world at 11 grams, almost double the NHS limit, and is a country where heart disease accounts for 40% of all deaths.
Researchers have estimated that reducing salt intake by one gram could also save four million lives by 2030 due to its impact on overall health.
DO NOT MISS
However, reducing one gram was just one of three different steps they suggested. The one gram target was the one they hoped to achieve within a year, while the second was set by the World Health Organization (WHO) which was looking for a 30% reduction in salt intake by 2025.
The aim is for average daily salt consumption to decrease by an average of just over three grams per day. Meanwhile, the third approach was to reduce salt intake to just five grams a day by 2030, a target set by the Chinese government.
Writing about the research, the team said: “The Chinese government’s ‘Healthy China 2030’ action plan includes nutritional recommendations to reduce salt, sugar and oil intake.
“This modeling study shows that salt reduction alone could bring enormous health benefits to the entire Chinese population.”

The researchers added: “Our estimates rely on salt reductions to not only be achieved but also sustained over time, which can be a big challenge given the rapidly changing dietary patterns seen in China given its urbanization. fast.”
The authors say that while some of their goals may be easily achievable, reducing salt reduction nationwide will be a challenge given China’s sheer size.
They concluded: “The evidence for substantial benefits of salt reduction in China is consistent and compelling. Achieving and sustaining population salt reduction in China could prevent millions of unnecessary cardiovascular events and deaths. Given the sheer size of China’s population, it would also bring major global health benefits.
Worldwide, heart disease is the leading cause of death ahead of cancer and dementia. As a result, massive efforts are being made around the world to reduce rates of the disease.
How is blood pressure measured?
Blood pressure is not a number, but a combination of two, diastolic and systolic blood pressure. Systolic blood pressure is the pressure when the heart pumps blood.
Meanwhile, diastolic pressure is the pressure that the heart rests between beats. When blood pressure is measured, the highest number will always be systolic blood pressure. This will be above the diastolic measurement.
Healthy blood pressure readings vary from person to person, but on average healthy blood pressure is considered to be 90/60 mmHg and 120/80 mmHg.
High blood pressure, on the other hand, is considered to be 140/90 mmHg or higher. If it is at this threshold or more, treatment may be necessary to lower it.


Climate Action Plan Defines the Future of Clean Energy in New York | News
ALBANY (TNS) – Members of the state’s Climate Action Council voted last week to move forward with a draft climate scoping plan on how New York City in the coming decades will scale back greenhouse gases in all aspects of the state’s economy.
The plan, which is expected to be released for public comment by the end of this year, culminates two years and countless hours of discussion and debate on how to reduce carbon emissions from homes, cars, the economy. electricity and just about every aspect of life in the middle of the 21st century.
Members of the Climate Action Council began work soon after the adoption and promulgation of the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act 2019. This legislation places New York at the forefront of national efforts to reduce carbon emissions that cause greenhouse gases in order to combat climate change.
The CLPA calls for a 70% reduction in carbon emissions by 2030 and aims for a carbon-free economy by 2040.
But while the 22 ACC members voted to approve the scoping plan unanimously, they disagree on the details of how to achieve their goals. In addition, many steps and potential struggles remain until the policies envisioned in the plan become law.
Once the scoping plan is published, there is a 120-day public comment period. Then, by 2023, the final plan will be forwarded to the Governor and the Legislature, as well as regulatory bodies such as the State Civil Service Commission.
This means that the framework plan, which is over 300 pages long, is a broad roadmap towards reducing carbon emissions. It’s like the directions for a long road trip that you get on Mapquest or Google Maps. When you first enter your route, a large-scale map shows you mileage, estimated time, and route choices. Next, you’re looking for step-by-step directions: which exit to take from the highway and which turns to take to your final destination.
“It won’t happen overnight,” warned Raya Salter, a lawyer and conservationist who served on the CCC.
Certainly, there will be a lot of debate and disagreement, some of which has been evidenced by the various statements that CCC members have made after voting to move forward.
“The sooner we move to a fully electric future, the sooner we will realize the vast economic and health benefits associated with a fossil-free future,” said Conor Bambrick, director of climate policy at Environmental Advocates NY in a statement after the vote. The group’s executive director, Peter Iwanowicz, was a member of the Climate Action Council.
That’s easier said than done, argued CAC member Gavin Donohue, executive director of the Independent Power Producers of New York, which represents power plant operators, including those that run on natural gas.
âThe draft plan does not include enough details,â Donohue said in his statement after the vote to move forward.
âIt is difficult for consumers to understand that compliance with CLCPA is intended to bring them more benefits than costs, when faced with the costs of installing or accessing renewable energies and energy storage,â replacing their heating system, buying electric cars, and finding ways to charge them.
Even with the hard work ahead, the scoping plan provides insight into the impact of emissions reduction efforts on the economy and the daily lives of millions of New Yorkers. Some of the key features include:
Buildings, which require heating and air conditioning systems, accounted for 32% of New York’s carbon emissions in 2019, according to the scoping plan. He speaks of a switch from fuels like natural gas, fuel oil, kerosene and wood to electricity from 2024, with push for local zoning codes to encourage electrification. The plan calls for the large-scale use of heat pumps, which exploit the temperature difference between the inside and outside of a house, to help with electrification. The new houses would be built to the most modern standards of efficiency and insulation.
This sector emits 28% of the state’s greenhouse gases and the plan calls for a massive transition to electric vehicles. Part of that change has already been legislated – in September, Governor Kathy Hochul signed a bill to phase out the sale of gasoline cars by 2035 in favor of emission-free models such as electric vehicles. Medium and heavy duty trucks with no emissions are mandatory by 2045.
Dismantling of natural gas
Currently, natural gas is the primary source of energy for electricity in the state. It powers a fleet of power plants, some of which have switched from petroleum and even coal in recent years. Eventually, renewable energies such as solar and wind power are expected to take over. It will be an ongoing and complicated process and can be one of the most controversial parts of the framing plan, especially when you consider how quickly this should happen.
Donohue, for example, maintains that âdispatchableâ or on-demand energy sources from gas-fired power plants will play a role in the future, as solar and wind power depend on weather conditions. Gas-fired power plants would provide a backup, for example, on windless and cloudy days, when wind turbines and solar panels are not producing much electricity.
On the other hand, the plan talks about energy storage, in which large-scale next-generation batteries can store electricity for days without solar or wind power.
The concept that low-income and majority-minority neighborhoods have borne a disproportionate burden of pollution plays an important role in the scoping plan.
Historically, industrial facilities such as power plants, landfills, truck parks or factories were often located in or near low-income neighborhoods. Albany’s South End, for example, adjoins Albany Harbor, railroads and a major truck route.
To rectify what council members say is a historic injustice, the plan is taking steps to ensure these neighborhoods and their residents benefit from some of the changes to come. This could be done through training programs to work in the green economy, subsidies for installing solar panels, or other considerations.
Members of a special working group on climate justice spent a lot of time determining which communities should be eligible, and they took a broad approach, taking into account income, health models, pollution levels and pollution. other factors in a given community. âWe layered the features,â said Amy Klein, CEO of the Troy-based Capital Roots food distribution program, which was part of the group.
The plan talks about a carbon price, or carbon tax, to help finance the switch to renewable energy. According to this concept, polluters who emit CO2, whether they are factories, schools, hospitals or shopping centers, would pay a royalty or tax based on the amount of carbon they release into the world. air every year.
The proceeds of the levy would subsidize renewable energy and other carbon reduction activities. Getting this tax or fee passed will no doubt be a tough job that should be done by elected lawmakers who hate being blamed for a new gas tax.
New Yorkers got a glimpse of this dynamic last year when the push for a carbon tax bill, known as the Climate and Community Investment Act, or CCIA, was launched. but quickly sank, at least for now.
The proposal would have taken $ 55 per tonne of fossil fuel emissions, generating about $ 2.3 billion per year. But when an initial calculation found it would cost motorists an additional 55 cents per gallon, the bill died, even though it envisioned discounts for low-income commuters as well.
It was undoubtedly a first step towards a carbon tax, and the idea will probably come back, but not necessarily in 2022, which is an election year.
When it comes to tough decisions, lawmakers like to wait for reports, studies or special commissions to guide them – and to deflect some of the criticism if it is an unpopular decision.
âIf you’re talking to the state legislature, their excuse was that we waited for the Climate Council to tell us what to do,â said Mark Dunlea, veteran activist and chairman of the Green Education and Legal Fund, of the discussion on last year’s carbon tax.
âWe have to figure out how we’re going to pay for it,â Salter added.

South facing elevations are subject to solar heat all day, the elliptical orbit of the earth around the sun combined with the earth axis means that southern elevations will be subject to continuous solar heat and solar glare. These areas require less heating due to solar heat gain, but are also far more prone to over heating and air conditioning in summer. Southern elevations can also be affected by excessive solar glare at certain times of the day, making these areas awkward to manage and use.
SunGuard High Selective SN 62/34 or SN 70/37
SN 62/34 has a very similar super neutral appearance to ClimaGuard
and SN 70/37, yet it offers advanced solar heat control, reducing solar heat
gains by 66% and therefore reducing demands on air conditioning in
this highly exposed area. It has a slightly lower light transmission helping to reduce solar glare whilst still providing natural daylight, and provides the same exceptionally low U value of 1.0 W/m2K helping to reduce heating demands.
