PG&E Encourages Customers To Conserve Electricity As California Declares New Flex Alert

[13-August-2012]

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) today urged customers to conserve electricity in response to a Flex Alert called for tomorrow, August 14, 2012, by the California Independent System Operator (CAISO), which manages the state’s power grid. A Flex Alert is an urgent call to immediately conserve electricity and shift demand to off-peak hours to ease strain on the grid. CAISO issued the alert in response to forecasts of continued high temperatures this week, which will increase expected demand for electricity for air conditioning to near record levels. PG&E encourages customers to begin reducing their energy use today, particularly between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m., when demand is highest. Customers should follow these simple conservation tips: Adjust your thermostat to 78 degrees or higher or turn it off if you will be away from home. Use a fan instead of air conditioning, when possible. Draw drapes and turn off unnecessary lighting. Keep refrigerator full (with bottles of water if nothing else) and unplug the second refrigerator. Avoid using electrical appliances and devices. Put off tasks like vacuuming, laundry, dish washing and computer time until after 6 p.m. Set your pool pump to run overnight instead of during the day. In addition to customer conservation efforts, PG&E uses “demand response” programs to reduce strain on the grid during summer months. Demand response programs are voluntary and allow enrolled customers to receive an incentive for reducing their energy use during peak demand times, like weekday afternoons. Today, the company activated two demand response programs for more than 2,000 business locations and one program for residential customers, reducing demand by approximately 60 megawatts of electricity. Pacific Gas and Electric Company, a subsidiary of PG&E Corporation (NYSE:PCG), is one of the largest combined natural gas and electric utilities in the United States. Based in San Francisco, with 20,000 employees, the company delivers some of the nation’s cleanest energy to 15 million people in Northern and Central California.

PRN: UC Hastings Launches Lawyers for America

UC Hastings Launches Lawyers for America

[13-August-2012]

Pilot Program Based on Medical Model, Responsive to Legal Marketplace, Justice Gap SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — UC Hastings College of the Law introduces Lawyers for America, a pilot program based on the medical model to provide greater access to justice while responding to the challenging legal marketplace for graduating law students. Based on the Medical Model While most law students start their third year of law school sitting in the classroom, Lawyers for America students will have the opportunity to spend the year working full-time at a government agency or non-profit organization–and then return for a year, after a break to take the bar, in a paid fellowship position at the same job site. Access to Justice “It’s no secret that society suffers from a justice gap: that is, a large unmet need for the assistance of lawyers,” explains Lawyers for America’s executive director, UC Hastings Professor Marsha Cohen. “Our Fellows will provide human capital to partner sites facing high volumes of work and shortages of manpower.” The program is also scalable. “Our first pilot class of fellows will serve in the San Francisco Bay Area, in partnership with UC Hastings,” says Cohen, “but the program is available to law schools and their government and nonprofit partners throughout the country.” “Lawyers for America comes as part of UC Hastings’ plan to reboot legal education,” says Chancellor and Dean Frank H. Wu. “Not only will this program improve law students’ practical skills, it will serve to expand the availability of legal services for those who cannot afford lawyers, and in turn increases the ability of government and legal offices to render such services.” Details Lawyers for America, Inc. (LfA) is a California charitable corporation that has applied for IRS 501(c)(3) nonprofit status. LfA was founded by UC Hastings College of the Law Professors David Faigman and Marsha Cohen.
