In which I want to poke a spammer with a pointy stick
The observant may have noticed that the look of this site has suddenly got rather gaudy. There is a good reason for this - I've been creating a WordPress theme which I want to be as flexible as possible. I.e. a 'bare' theme, which can then be styled easily with css. I know these themes already exist, but I wanted my own, m'kay?
The reason for the gaudy colours? Testing. I wanted the default colours to be fairly obvious, with each main element being distinct so that I could be sure that I had the no typos in the CSS selectors.
I'll leave the theme running for a little while, I'd be interested to hear about any usability issues (other than the horrible colour scheme).
The theme should be fully widgetised, it should have comment threading, avatars and so on.
The theme should be fluid and resize gracefully, as screen width reduces, the images reduce whilst keeping aspect ratio.
Things I know I want to fix - some of these are purely 'behind the scenes':
- I want, at most, one sticky post on the front page. At the moment, it'll put any number on.
- I want to have a tags page which shows the tag cloud.
- Behind the scenes, the entry formatting uses the same template, called when needed by index.php and archive.php. I need to get the single.php template to use this as well in order to minimise maintenance (requires some 'if' statements).
- Do I *need* single.php and archive.php once I've done that?
- Author pages, ideally automatically pulling in gravatars.
- Decent 404 page
- The comment form gets screwed up on a narrow screen and doesn't resize gracefully. I don't know why.
- I want the theme to be accessible. I.e. Good for screen readers and the like. I have no way to test this however, so if you know anyone with a screen reader, please do point them in this direction and ask them to comment (or, pass on their comments should it *really* be unusable).
- Is the order of elements okay?
- aural stylesheet hasn't been done, for me, that'd be coding without testing - I would want a sheet though!
- The tags/related tags stuff - does there need to be a way to, ideally optionally, skip that for screenreaders.... I wonder how (without introducing new screen cruft)
- I'll then package up this rough theme for release, create a duplicate and change the look and feel to customise it. If I find that I have to customise anything other than a stylesheet, I'll need to amend the 'raw' theme.
Things I'm unsure of:
- I've appended categories to tags (with a different class for styling)
- Do I want to keep the related posts thing? It relies on a plugin, so isn't essential for the theme (plugin may be disabled as a recent update caused a problem behind the scenes... I hope I remember to remove this sentence when fixed, but I've couched it as a conditional just in case)
I'm Back!
After much wailing and gnashing of teeth when the host I had murky.org on went belly-up ("I had missed the sorry, but we're closing" email) I am now back. I must nod the head to Nap who supplied me with an up to date backup (which I did not have.... I know... I know....).
The look and feel isn't right at the moment, but the data is here, and for now, that's wonderful!
(Edit: Regarding look and feel.... copy and paste from backup, change preference for display, enable a plugin or two... and it's 95% done - Murk )
Site Updates
I've tweaked and prodded the site this morning:
- When in a category view, you should see the parent categories and subcategories listed at the top of the page
- Category views only show excerpts (to keep things lean)
- The categories have been moved about a bit within their hierarchy (this is to allow for a future template change I'm considering)
- When reading a single post, previous posts in that category are listed underneath
- Any comments I make are styled differently - it should be possible to style regular commenters specially as well, ask if you'd like me to try (hmm... perhaps I could even have a user icon for regular commenters)
- I think I've got the excerpt thing worked out, and will try to remember it if I discuss spoilers for TV shows. I will test it after this list
If I've broken anything, please do let me know. Similarly, if something doesn't work the way you expect, or like, I'd like to hear that too - though I may not be able to fix it immediately (or at all!) it'll go on the list.
Who are you?
I'm curious about the people that read this. Who are you, do you have a site of your own? Are you just dropping through? Do comment using the link or form below and let me know.
Site Updated
I've recently updated the site, and as such have changed the look again. Hopefully nothing is broken, we shall see...
I had a problem with RSS feeds. I trust that this is now resolved. Apologies for anyone getting a glut of old entries in their RSS reader as a result of this.
Wordpress 2.2
WordPress has been updated to version 2.2. With this in mind I will changed the layout of this site in order to remove all of my customisations and have a 'clean' install. I'll change over at some point in the next few days, and will then gradually recustomise once I'm happy with how 2.2 does things differently. (E.g. widgets) If I break anything, please let me know!
Another New Theme
I've got yet another new theme going. It's been tweaked a bit for functionality, e.g. breadcrumbs, RSS links and so forth (different RSS links appear on different pages, depending on context) There is one bug, as demonstrated here
(The problem is fixed, link removed)
I want img tags in posts to be floated, so the text wraps around them. No problem, but I want the next post to clear the img.
The trouble is that when I give the appropriate class for the start of the next post a 'clear' attribute, it clears the menu sidebars as well! I could cludge in a wide img that forces a new line, when it's floated, but that has two problems as it will be 'squeezed down' creating whitespace when the window is narrowed, and it won't work if the window is widened. This'd mean the site would only look as expected in a narrow range of window widths.
Not good. It's not critical, the next can be seen for the next post (it wraps too), but it isn't what I want.
I suppose I could complicate the html for img tags to get around it, but that's inelegant and inpractical (lots of back-editing).
There has to be an elegant fix, which doesn't involve loads of edits, I've tried a <br clear="left" /> in the template, but that has the same problem. I don't mind adding HTML to a template, just not to the post!
Any bright ideas out there? Help gratefully received. (If in the mood to fiddle directly, firefox has a web developer extension which allows you to affect the CSS of a site you're viewing, on your browser, it doesn't affect anyone else)
Future plans: I'll keep changing themes until I have a nice selection that all work as expected, then put in a theme switcher to give user choice.
After much wailing and gnashing of teeth, anyone clicking in to an old URL will be redirected to a WordPress page which automagically searches for the most likely WordPress equivalents. This is, I think, quite good.
Problems with wordpress
Firstly, generally it's fine - works behind the scenes - and 'just does it'. Disadvantages are that it's php based, and I don't know php. This makes modifying it a pain. In addition, all my permalinks are slightly different. This unfortunately means I'll have broken links within the site. This should be minimised as the old site is still there (and some links will go to that) - however, it does mean that the internal consistency isn't what I'd like, and I can't see a fast way to fix that. The only method that springs to mind (short of lots of programming, having first taught myself HOW to do it) is to scroll through and check links manually. A bit of a pain, and I'm not going to be able to do it anytime soon...
... so, I would appreciate a comment if you see a broken link (or if the link suddently changes the look of the thing, that means you've gone to the old site). I'll fix anything commented as a priority.
After much wailing and gnashing of teeth caused by 'upgrading' to movabletype 3.3, I've installed wordpress. Long story short, first MT looked fine, but it would not save new entry - and for the last 24 hours it's been producing server errors. Not nice.
Anyhow, things are still ongoing - I may swap back as I'm more comfortable in MT than WP, but in the meantime.....
I've now got the thing running again, I'll save the modification of styles (and a lot of modification is needed) for later....
Template Woes
Whoops. I wanted to make a template backup, and so intended to save the current template over the older template. My clicking went faster than my brain and I saved the older over the newer.
Fortunately, I was able to reconstruct a similar looking homepage quite quickly - but it's lost a lot of the modifications I made.
This just brings forward the day that I redo the templates completely. I'm not sure when I'll get around to doing this, but I'll get there sooner or later! Decluttering the homepage is a key aim - but decluttering isn't as easy as people think, the hard part is decluttering whilst keeping utility. There's also the issue of changing over whilst keeping things working at all times!
I've a few things in mind, I'll just have to add them to the list and they'll bubble to the top once I've dealt with urgent and important, urgent (but not important) and important (but not urgent). It may be some time.... unless I need the distraction and want to geek for a bit.
RSS - Live it, use it, love it!
It's been a little while since I mentioned RSS. The title is rather corny, but once you're using RSS you will wonder how you managed to keep up with things before. RSS is a pretty easy to use thing, many websites use it. It allows you to keep track of many sites in one place. In fact, I find that the vast majority of the sites I use utilise RSS, from Flickr to the BBC News, from del.icio.us to Slashdot.
To use RSS, you first need an RSS reader. One of the easiest is bloglines. You need to create an account on the website to continue.
Alternatively, you could use 'Live Bookmarks' in Firefox or Thunderbird, or one of the many other programs out there.
The next step is to copy the address of the RSS feed into your reader of choice. Look for the RSS feed on the site. this is often a little orange button.
Quite often, clicking on the link will launch your feedreader, you may need to right click and 'copy the link'.
Paste it into your feedreader (sometimes called an aggregator).
Updates to the site now come straight to your desktop.
Some sites, are even nice enough to provide single click buttons for popular aggregators, though these do assume that you have an account with that service. You don't need these special buttons if you're using that service, all you need is the feed link, there will be somewhere to paste that link when you log in to your reader.
Of course, I've been nice enough to supply direct links for some of the popular choices!
On this site, there are RSS feeds for comments, comments on individual articles, categories (you might want to get just the UK politics, without the day to day stuff, for example) and so forth.
Don't forget to click through to the sites from time to time to add comments to articles!
I'm Back!
After a week of downtime on the servers, things are now back... and what a week to be cut off!
Blair government in meltdown, Clarke sacked. Prescott removed from job (but not title or perks....), an apparent climbdown on the potentially disasterous Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill (I haven't had a chance to study this.. have we won?)
On the geeky side, I'm now up to 26 geocaches (having got a few in Dorset at the weekend), and I've discovered the wonders of Google Calendar - a lovely application - still in beta and needing improvement, but already pretty damned good!
On server issues, at the moment the email may not be working fully, and the web side of thing has been back for only five minutes - so I'd appreciate any bug reports via comments (or via gmail)
Server Downtime
This server will soon be experiencing some downtime - it should last a few days. This will affect this site, and may affect my email etc. For the duration, the gmail address should be used. If anyone doesn't know it, email me fast to learn it!
With deep irony after my earlier post, I had an attack of the spams today. Some of which made it to the site. So after having a major spam cleanup (apologies to anyone tracking comments via RSS or email), I've implemented a 'captcha'. I.e. anyone commenting must provide the secret password. This is pretty easy for a human - but much harder for an automated script. This is not based on a graphic, but is instead based upon understanding a sentence. If anyone runs into bugs, please let me know on bugs (at) murky (dot) org. Thanks.
It is now also possible to ask the software to automatically email you comments on a post without having to comment yourself.
(Update: This is now removed).
Email Notification
I have finally got around to adding a feature which allows commenters to ask for followup comments to be sent to them by email. The commenter can opt whether or not to receive these emails, and before any emails are sent the address will need to be verified, this is to prevent the site being used to spam people. This is on a post by post basis. People who subscribe using this feature can cancel a subscription for a particular post, or for the whole site, by following the instructions in the email. This should prevent people becoming deluged in the unlikely event that a comment thread 'takes off'.
This is in addition to the XML feeds provided for each post.
Please report any bugs by commenting upon this (or indeed any) post, though this post is the best place!
Remember, if you're an 'unknown' poster the comment may enter moderation. Blame the spammers for this. I will 'whitelist' regular commenters to bypass this feature. If that applies to you, and I have yet to whitelist you, please comment here and I will address this).
Top of the British Blogs
This is scary, I'm currently number 9 in the Top of the British Blogs. Okay, it's a fairly small pool at present, but still - scary!
Of the other sites I recognise, Europhobia is at 16, Iain Dale is at 17, Chicken Yoghurt is at 33 and perfect.co.uk is at 50.
There's no way that I'm higher up than some of those guys. Conclusive proof, Britblog's algorithm is messed up! It must be, it's the only rational explanation.
Of course - now watch as I plummet off the list...
Snapshot of this website (for a snapshirt)
Snapshirts (who aim to sell you a T Shirt) have a facility to scan a blog and produce a 'Zeitgeist' graphic for that site. This is my graphic, made 5 minutes ago.
Stats are back ... and MSIE is at 50%?
After a hiatus due to a glitch, I was pleased to find that I now have access to the webstats again (and have done for some time). The webhost disabled them for a while to protect the servers. Anyway, to cut a long story short, roughly 25% of the visitors to this site are using Mozilla Firefox (Mozilla itself is a small percentage). Well done you.
Unfortunately, over 50% (but not much over, 52.7%) are using Internet Explorer.
Oh dear.
Whilst this is lower than the average for computer users (most just use what is installed at purchase time), the intelligent and beautiful people that you are can really do better that this!
I do encourage you to give Firefox a try, it is free, and very nice to use (especially once you get into tabbed browsing and extensions).
Firefox is available for PC, mac and unix systems, and in many languages.
For an example of why MSIE is worth leaving behind, have a look at CSSEdge - these (correctly coded) webpages look good in Firefox, but does not work as expected in MSIE, that is because MSIE is not standards compliant.

If there's a world recession in progress, then someone forgot to tell Carlsberg about it. While many companies are slashing prices, the Danish brewer has unveiled the world's most expensive beer. Priced at 2008DKK (approx USD$350), the Jacobsen Vintage No. 1 is a limited edition brew for any beer drinkers who still feel like splashing out.
The beer is a 10.5% ABV Barley wine and is mostly targeted at up-scale restaurants in Copenhagen, Denmark. Perhaps Carlsberg have hit upon the hard-up financial sector workers who can no longer spend $3000 on a bottle of champagne, but will happily downgrade to a $350 bottle of beer.
Beer is usually one of the products that sees an increase in sales during economic recessions; it's not known if this behavior is limited to low-priced beers or all categories. Just 600 bottles of the Jacobsen Vintage No. 1 have been brewed, so only the lucky/rich few will have a chance to enjoy it.
Cast your mind back to the affluent days of the mid-2000s and read on for more details on this unique product…
What does it taste like?
According to Carlsberg, the beer undergoes an intensive, meticulous brewing process, resulting in a unique flavor:
The beer has flavours of vanilla, smoke, caramel and port from maturing on Swedish or French Cote dór oak casks. The bitterness is soft and intriguing.
Once you've savored the taste of this beer, there's an added bonus of the label to admire. It's a custom print by Danish artist Frans Kannik, depicting fables of Sif (who was married to the Nordic god Thor). If you're very careful when peeling the label off, you could frame it and you'll have an instant, limited edition artwork for your wall.
What's it worth?
Before you rush out and place an order on this limited edition beer, we thought you might like to know what else you could spend you money on.
1 bottle of Jacobsen Vintage No. 1 is the same price as…
- 480 cans of Bud Light
- 280 bottles of Sam Adams
- 233 bottles of Leffe
- 13 shares in the Carlsberg Group on the Danish stock exchange
- 1 night's accommodation in the SAS Royal Hotel Copenhagen plus 2 pints of Carlsberg beer on draft
Would you spend $350 on a bottle of beer? What beer are you spending your money on during the recession?
If you manage to sample the Jacobsen Vintage No. 1, please leave a comment and let us know if it was worth the price!

by Matthew Campbell, Coop Board member & irritated hockey fan
Ah the business story of 2013, a 12 year 5.232 billion dollar deal giving Rogers a monopoly on a product Canadians viewers are most inelastic for. Beginning for the 2014-2015 season and ending after the 2025-26 season, the agreement gives Rogers national Canadian rights to all regular season and playoff NHL hockey games on all Rogers platforms. This provides Canadian viewers a chance to watch NHL games on cable, the internet, wireless and mobile devices and satellite radio.
Quote from NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman during his press-conference announcing the deal: "The multi-platform was part of the strategy we believed we needed to use moving forward to embrace and respond to digital technology and the way people are consuming entertainment, particularly sports, The ability to give our fans, perhaps in an unprecedented way for any major sport, what they wanted, when they wanted it, how they wanted it, that was important to us and that is why the deal got structured the way it did."
And this one: "You can shop around, see what game is interesting you most, which game is closer, what is going on in a particular game and decide what you want to watch instead of having it determined based on where you are geographically."
Well this technological advancement sounds fantastic! I can watch any game I want, wherever I want, using whatever technological device I see fit to view the game with…I just have to be a Rogers user. No problem I'll just switch over and start getting my professional hockey…upgrade charge for hockey? Since when?
And here is when things get dicey.
Right now if you buy basic cable from Bell you will receive only TSN (not TSN 2) and no Sportsnet, on the flip-side buy Rogers you get Sportsnet but no TSN coverage. So even after the duopoly giants bought Maple Leaf and Sports Entertainment (don't get me started on that one) unless you pay the ludicrous mark-up for the sports packages ($73.34/month for the Rogers Extra Sports Pak and $36.13/month for the Rogers Super Sports Pak) you will have to stream illegally or go to your favorite local bar every night the Leafs play on TSN. What is up with that? A massive company is making billions off its ridiculous mark-ups (because the market structure allows them to) and they still cannot provide content of a team they own???
And for those we see the technological advantage of this deal have a point, watching NHL hockey will never be more assessable or easier, but at what cost? If you think the Rogers mark-ups for sports are currently bad, wait until this deal kicks into effect. Rogers customers (or should I say all Canadian Media Customers) will have to purchase the Extra Sports Pak, Super Sports Pak and then the NHL Hockey sports Pak in order to merely watch the hockey games. Theoretically NHL hockey alone could cost the Canadian consumer 80-150 bucks a month! Nothing Rogers has done makes me think they won't try this kind of price discrimination; after all they are in the business to make money and the best way to make money is profit-maximize. How do you profit-maximize? Easy find a product a group of consumers can't do without and charge the s#*% out of them. What does the consumer do? Like a cattle herd, line-up to pay more for the same amount of hockey.
You can view this whole situation as the consumer failing to see the exploitation or as the consumer gearing up for the technological advancement that will be intertwined with NHL hockey. Give credit to Rogers as it seems that they have successfully deflected the attention onto the multiple platform and 'hockey all in one place' aspect of the deal and not the 'hockey all in one place so major mark-ups on our cable, internet and phone usages if you want to watch hockey' aspect. I find it funny that Canadians are all up in arms and concerned about what is going to happen with Hockey Night in Canada and Don Cherry. To be clear, I love HNIC and Don Cherry but that is such a small and unimportant aspect to this whole story. It was realistically a matter of time before CBC lost its hockey rights, when you have a broadcasting company reducing its spending and a Cartel increases its fees for access; the two most likely won't be in business together. I'm sure Bettman long ago had plans to phase out Hockey Night in Canada (a process beginning now and ending in four years). The link I included on this subject matter tries to paint a nice picture of the future for HNIC and CBC but to me sounds like the plan is already in place; air Hockey Night in Canada for four more years on CBC and then move the whole productions full-time to Rogers.
I'll look back on this blog in four years to see how smart (more likely dumb) I am but I bet Bettman and Rogers are hoping in four years the Canadian Consumer forgets all about this deal and Hockey Night in Canada. And most likely they will because come fall 2018, a new hockey season will start and the herd will be in line (whether in person, on phone or online) to pay for the Rogers NHL Hockey Sports Package.

Get the bigger picture in your market by using the Transfer Search feature to see what is selling, and how.
When you review "sold stats", do you sometimes feel like you are missing the bigger picture? All sales are not created equal, and they don't always show up. Transfer Search allows you to easily see exactly what is selling in your market, and how it is selling. This will enable you to search for, and review all property transfers, including Commercial and Residential, listed or never listed, and market or non-market transactions.
Review sales in your area by transfer type including distressed and non-distressed properties, and even categories of non-market transactions. Transfer types include Short Sales, Flips, REO Resales, interfamily, and much more.
Get a much deeper understanding of the specific buyer profile in your market to focus both on your target and marketing opportunities. Are you focused on FHA buyers when a large percent of the transactions in your area are 100% cash buyers? Are first time homebuyers dominating your market? Search for all non-listed sales or by multiple parcel deals to see if institutional buyers are doing deals behind the scenes or in bulk.

Perfect Is the Enemy
As a mostly Type A, typically overachieving eldest child, I can't help but aim for perfection. As a student, my high strung, meticulous ways mostly served me well. But as an adult, married with children, I've discovered that it can be a character flaw. Perfection is indeed the enemy of "good enough."
- I can accept help, whether or not a task is done my way (aka the right way).
- Guests still enjoy our company when I haven't cleaned the baseboards or they step on a toy.
- Kids like being kids and I do not have to be teaching mine something profound every waking moment.
- I can enjoy my life and feel good about myself even if I never look anything like 22-year-old me again.
- I do not need to have a competitive mile time to make running worthwhile.
- It's still fun to share my outfits on my blog with pictures taken using self-timer and not my husband/friend/colleague with down-low photography talent.
Whenever I find myself feeling overwhelmed or disappointed, I try to take a step back and consider what the real problem is. Often, it's my perspective. I hate feeling that I wasted time worrying, irritated and anxious over details that won't matter in the big picture. That's usually enough kick in the pants for me to re-evaluate a situation and change my attitude. I want to be happy and appreciating every moment of my blessed life.
Has the quest for perfection ever stood in your way? Do you have any tools that help you gain perspective?

Making Ireland Modern, which has just received a Highly Commended Award at the RIAI Irish Architecture Awards 2016, will be touring, presented in significant and central locations in Galway, Cork and Dublin. The exhibition, by joint commissioners and curators Gary A. Boyd and John McLaughlin Architects explores the relationship between architecture, infrastructure and technology in the building of a new nation. Constructed as an open matrix of drawings, photographs, models, and other artefacts, the exhibition presents ten infrastructural episodes- Negatives, Electricity, Health, Transportation, Television, Aviation, Education, Telecommunications, Motorways, Data- spanning a period of one hundred years from 1916-2016. Exploring a range of scales from the detail design of objects to entire landscapes and other territories, Making Ireland Modern describes architecture's role in transforming the physical and cultural identity of the new state through its intercession in the everyday lives of its population.
Staging this exhibition in Ireland in 2016 presents an opportunity for a broad public to celebrate the role of architecture and infrastructure in the construction of the Irish State at a particular moment of commemoration and cultural examination of our recent past.
Making Ireland Modern is a key touring project in ART:2016: The Arts Council's programme as part of Ireland 2016, and is also supported by The Government Policy on Architecture and The Royal Institute of the Architects of Ireland (RIAI)
The exhibition will open at Galway International Arts Festival in July, and will be presented in the Bailey Allen Hall at NUI Galway. It runs daily from 11-24 July and admission is free.

In his first game back after spraining his ankle, Matt Forte was OK. With 52 yards, it wasn't his worst game, but it was far from the 120 yards from scrimmage Forte gained in the season opener.
Will he improve against the Jaguars?
On Wednesday, he had limited participation in practice. According to Lovie Smith, Forte came away from Monday night's game with just normal soreness.
"It was good to see Matt Forte back out there," Smith said while meeting with reporters on Wednesday. "He didn't come away with anything other than just normal soreness from a game in his ankle, even though he went out after that first play."
Julius Peppers was also limited because of an ankle issue, and Earl Bennett continued to be limited by a hand injury. Bennett missed Sunday's game, as did Evan Rodriguez, who didn't practice at all.

On one of our first dates, Todd and I met up at City Hall Park in the Financial District and walked across the Brooklyn Bridge. On the other side of the river, we stumbled upon Brooklyn Bridge Park, which seemed like a hidden gem amid crumbly brick buildings and a quaint ice cream parlor. On Saturday, we revisited the park as part of Todd's birthday celebration in the city. Although some things have changed since our first visit, it remains a peaceful getaway where you can view the city from afar.
Month: June 2014
Recipe: Coffee & Cocoa SteakStandard
Although I love experimenting with stir fry dishes in the kitchen, sometimes I like to keep it simple and prepare a delicious meal that's also really quick! This cocoa and coffee steak recipe is just that. And as a bonus, you probably already have most of the ingredients you need to make it: salt, black pepper, ground coffee, baking cocoa, and thick slices of steak (I like to use prime rib for this, but you can really use any type of steak you want). You'll also need a broiler pan (shown below).
Overcoming My Fear of BikingStandard
I enjoy running in 5k races around the city, such as the NYPD Memorial Run or the Roosevelt Island Ice Cream Social. I also love jogging on my own or with a running buddy around the neighborhood, exploring little-known trails or picking a destination like the miniature golf course. It's especially rewarding to reach new milestones: this past weekend, I managed to jog five miles! But running is easy: one foot in front of the other, slowly at first and then building up to a faster pace once you've trained enough to handle it, the comforting feel of the asphalt always beneath your feet. Running feels safe. Biking, on the other hand, is a whole different story.
Growing My Green Thumb: Italian ParsleyStandard
I almost forgot that along with my purple basil and pineapple sage–the two herbs I rely on most from my garden–I'm growing flat Italian parsley, which is "probably the most commonly used herb in the world!" (One day soon I'll share with you a healthy and delicious pasta recipe that relies primarily on Italian parsley, roasted tomatoes, and cottage cheese.)
Learning Yoga: Camel PoseStandard
Here in New York City, it's a beautiful day to grab your yoga mat or a blanket and head to the park. Unfortunately I have to finish up some homework for an online media class I'm taking, so I can't go enjoy the sunshine. Instead, I'll do the next best thing and share some photos of last weekend, when I actually did go out to Central Park with my friend Beyza to practice yoga on the Great Lawn. One of the poses we tried out that day was Ustrasana, or "camel pose."
Poem: The Space between WordsStandard
I used to know how to write
a poem about anything
rain patter on the window, lanterns
strung up in the garden, breathing
and listening and
inside there is a space
that longs to be filled
o words!
miles logged on hot asphalt
will take you far away
from that stark void
that glimpse into the Real
but eventually you have to come
back home and I will be here
Book Review: The Story of a SoulStandard
We've all had moments where we feel so stressed or anxious that we aren't sure how we're going to make it through. During one of those times recently, I lay in bed and closed my eyes and imagined my grandmother (who died in 1995) standing before me. Many in my family have associated my grandmother with roses, so I said to her, "Grandma, just let me know everything is going to be okay. Show me a rose." I eventually drifted off to sleep.
The next day, I decided to go to confession before mass since I hadn't in some time. As I talked with the priest, he suggested to me that I read The Story of a Soul: The Autobiography of the Little Flower, written by St. Therese of Lisieux. When I looked up St. Therese on Google, I realized that she went by a number of names: St. Therese the Little Flower, St. Therese of the Child Jesus, and St. Therese of Roses. According to the Society of the Little Flower:
As she was dying in the convent infirmary, Therese could look out and see the rose bushes blossoming. She loved roses. She had thrown rose petals as a Child before the Blessed Sacrament. … Roses are Therese's signature. It is her way of whispering to those who need a sign that she has heard, and God is responding.
Whether that's a coincidence or a sign that my Grandma is up there in Heaven and heard me, I'll leave up to you to judge. On the priest's suggestion, I purchased St. Therese's book, and ultimately was glad that I did.

Vote today in the State primaries!!! Primary elections typically don't get as much attention as the general election in November. Nevertheless, they are an important part of our civic process and they determine which candidates represent each party in the general election which will take place on November 8.
If you are interested in becoming a civic engagement volunteer with ACDC, please contact us!
Click here to find your voting polling station.
For the past four years, ACDC has been involved in civic engagement efforts in Boston and Quincy. Partnering with Quincy Asian Resources, we have conducted two city council candidate forums in Quincy. This year, we are expanding our civic engagement efforts into Malden, where we recently launched a new office. We are currently recruiting youth and local residents to join us in our door knocking efforts which will begin later this month. We focus our civic engagement efforts to encourage low income Asian immigrant citizens to become registered voters. We conduct voter education workshops to ensure that voters understand the stances of the various candidates and understand what issues are being debated. Furthermore, we host gatherings between residents and elected officials where our residents can directly ask questions and tell their stories to those who represent them. It is important that candidates know the importance of reaching out to Asian American voters. According to AAPI Data, "[n]early 70% of Asian Americans have reported that neither party contacts them in regards to the election."
According to the Pew Research Center, while Asian Americans are the fastest growing ethnic group in America since 2000, Asian Americans voter turn-out percentage severely lags that of other ethnic groups at 47%. This compares to 66% for black voters and 64% for non-white Hispanic voters. Some of this is due to language barriers where immigrant voters have difficulty understanding the issues that candidates discuss. There are also cultural barriers where immigrants come from countries that do not have a strong democratic process. Since our civic engagement work began in Quincy, the Asian American voter turn-out in Quincy has tripled from 413 voters in 2013 to 1120 in 2017.
Our civic engagement efforts are funded through generous funding from the Coulter Foundation, the Boston Foundation, and the Asian Healthcare Foundation.

Multiple sclerosis is a sexually dimorphic (SD) disease that causes oligodendrocyte death but SD of glial cells is poorly studied. Here, we analyze SD of neural progenitors in 6-8wk and 6-8mo normal C57BL/6, SJL/J and BALB/c mice in the subventricular zone (SVZ), dorsolateral horn (DLC), corpus callosum (CC), and parenchyma. With a short 2 h BrdU pulse, no gender and strain differences are present at 6-8wk. At 6-8mo, the number of BrdU+ cells decreases 2-fold in both sexes, strains and regions indicating a common aging mechanism regulates BrdU incorporation. Strikingly, 2X more BrdU+ cells are found in all brain regions in 6-8mo C57BL/6 females vs males, no gender differences in 6-8mo SJL/J, and fewer BrdU+ cells in females vs males in BALB/c's. The number of BrdU+ cells modestly fluctuates throughout the estrous cycle in C57BL/6 and SJL's. Castration causes a dramatic increase in BrdU+ cells in SVZ and DLC. These findings indicate testosterone is a major regulator of adult neural proliferation. At 6-8mo, the ratio of PDGFRa+ cells in the CC to BrdU+ cells in the DLC of both strains, sexes, estrous cycle and castrated mice was essentially the same, suggesting BrdU+ cells in the DLC differentiate into CC oligodendrocytes. The ratio of TUNEL+ to BrdU+ cells does not match proliferation, indicating these events are differentially regulated. Differential regulation of these two processes leads to variation in glial numbers between gender and strain. Explanations of neural proliferation based upon data from one sex or strain may be very misleading.

Troubleshoot the Xbox One Play & Charge Kit battery pack
If your Xbox One rechargeable battery pack doesn't charge when you connect the Xbox One Wireless Controller to the console with a USB cable, it might have worn out (as all rechargeable batteries do). The length of time that a rechargeable battery lasts depends on how often you recharge it. If you recharge the battery frequently, it won't last as long as if you use the controller only occasionally.
But before you replace it, try these tests.
Test the cable
Check whether the cable is attached securely at both ends.
Try a different cable. Sometimes a cable can develop a short, or it might be susceptible to interference.
The Xbox One Play & Charge Kit uses a standard USB to micro-USB cable. You can use any USB to micro-USB cable to test whether the cable is the problem.
Clean the battery contacts
Remove the battery and clean the contacts on the battery pack using a dry cloth or isopropyl alcohol and a cotton swab. Don't use water or chemicals, which can damage the contacts.
Test the wireless controller
Insert AA batteries into the controller, and then test the controller.
Try a different Xbox One rechargeable battery pack.
If the controller works with a different battery pack or AA batteries, the controller isn't causing the issue.

These are really simple and delicious to make. I'm not sure where the recipe came from, passed on from another mum maybe, but it's just a basic muffin recipe and lunchbox friendly. I've also added a couple of tablespoons of chia seeds for extra goodness. I'm going to try another combination with some frozen raspberries and white chocolate so I'll let you know how that goes. Until then, enjoy these tasty little treats!!
2 cups self raising flour, sifted
1/2 cup of desiccated coconut
2/3 cup caster sugar
2 tablespoons of Chia seeds (optional)
2 medium overripe bananas (about a cup), mashed
100g butter (unsalted), melted and cooled
1/2 cup milk
2/3 cup choc chips
1. Preheat oven to 180C and line a 12 hole muffin tin with paper cases.
2. Place flour into a large mixing bowl and stir through the coconut, sugar and seeds.
3. Combine the mashed banana, melted butter and milk. Add this to the dry ingredients and stir to combine - but don't over mix! Gently fold the chocolate chips through. I used milk chocolate chips, but dark choc bits would also be nice.
4. Divide the mixture evenly into the muffin cases and bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
5. Allow to cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack to cool.

Rat & Mice Control in Phoenix, Arizona
Rodents, rat and mice are everywhere these days and pest control services are inundated with calls from people who have grown weary with rodent, rate and infestation. It is important to note that rat and mice need food, water and shelter to survive. So if you leave out accessible food sources in your home, it is like an open invitation for them to come into your home. The majority of the time open doors, trash bins and dumpsters are the main areas that often attract the attention of rats and mice, while they also eat fruit that has fallen from trees, and seeds.
The shelters that rodents will make mainly depend on the type of species. As winter approaches the number of rodent infestation calls also increase, since these little critters seek warmth and prefer to make shelters in homes and businesses to get away from the cold weather. Shelter can be found in an assortment of areas depending on the kind of rodent on your property. For example, there are large roof rat populations in Tempe, Mesa, Arcadia and other parts of the Phoenix area where there are established and mature trees and citrus groves. Pack rats are very common throughout the Valley with higher infestations being in areas on the outskirts of the city next to desert areas. House and field mice often find shelter in garages or homes and are commonly found all over but are more prevalent near farmers' fields. As it cools in the fall and winter, especially at night, we always get an increase in rodent calls. This happens because, rodents are looking for warmth, and so they seek it out inside of homes and buildings.
Our Inspection. When it comes to rodent infestations, you need to get proper inspections, since that will determine the type of rodent that you are dealing with, their entry points and the overall size of the population. At Green Home Pest Control we make sure that you get proper rodent inspections, and that way we can assess the situation and arrive at a solution to rid your property of the existing rodents and prevent further rodent activity.
Our treatment. Once we trap and bait the current rodent populations, we then can exclude them from coming back. We make sure that the rodent doesn't get a chance to get inside the home, sealing attic entry points, sealing pipes, new weather stripping, door sweeps etc. There are certain steps that are recommended you follow to ensure that the rodents don't come back over to your home again, which include:
- Trimming trees near your home
- Repairing trash bins and dumpster lids
- Clearing debris from your yard
Future Prevention. Any rodent can easily through a hole, about the size of a dime, which is why even a small hole around your home can become an entry point for rodents. We provide you with comprehensive inspections, which will reveal spots from where rats and mice may enter your home. Rodents will generally enter your home in search of food, water and shelter, so make sure that your home doesn't offer easy food and water sources for pests.
You can easily do that by keeping your yard clean and sealing all the waste storage that goes along the way in keeping pests out of your home. Green Home Pest Control is very proactive when dealing with rodent infestations and offer treatments that are designed to keep rodents out of your home and business. We offer customizable rodent pest control services to all homeowners and businesses in Phoenix, AZ and surrounding cities, with complete satisfaction guaranteed.

TRENTON — Gingerly stepping on plywood that replaced warped hardwood flooring in a second floor classroom at Trenton Central High School, Sen. Barbara Buono asked "Is it safe?"
Buono, the leading Democratic challenger for Gov. Chris Christie's job in the November election, toured the conditions at the high school today, saying it is "criminal" that students are allowed to attend school in such deplorable conditions.
"I've been in prisons that look better than this school," Buono said. "The message that this is sending to our children is that you don't matter."
The school's condition has attracted the attention of many politicians, though the Republican Christie has declined to pay the school a visit, saying the state Schools Development Authority (SDA) can handle the job without his involvement.
Buono saw the stairwell students call "the waterfall" and examined the auditorium that was closed because the floor was deemed structurally unsafe. Principal Hope Grant and Larry Loper, the head custodian at the school, led Buono around the building to see where water seepage has caused damage to the walls and forced some rooms to be closed because of mold.
"Our school facilities are unsafe, unhealthy and unequal to other facilities in the state of New Jersey," said Nu-Kermeri Kermah, TCHS senior class president, during a rally before Buono's tour.
Naiomi Johnson-Lafleur, president of the Trenton Education Association, said teachers file complaints about the building on a near-daily basis. The state could change the situation merely by opening its checkbook, she said.
"All we are asking is that the governor and the SDA director unleash the funding for Trenton high," she said.
The SDA has responded to complaints saying it has twice offered to rebuild the school and each time the community and city officials have been opposed to the plan. The SDA's current proposal calls for a much-reduced spending plan — between $23 million and $27 million — to address serious problems with the 81-year-old high school.
The agency said it would fix the exterior of the school starting with construction next summer. Construction to address the school's interior would start in the summer of 2015, according to the SDA's timeline.
In 2008 the SDA proposed a $150 million project to either renovate or replace the school, but that offer was taken off the table when Christie came into office in 2010.
Andrea Pasquine, spokeswoman for the SDA, said in a statement today that the idea of a new school was "soundly rejected by the local community" in 2009 and when proposed again this year was rejected by school board members.
Buono, who was joined today by state Sen. Shirley Turner (D-Lawrence) and Assembly members Reed Gusciora (D-Trenton) and Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-Ewing), said if she is elected governor she would allow the SDA to fund extensive renovations to the school.
"This is a crisis," she said. "It needs to be taken care of now. If they were going to start tomorrow it's too late."
Buono was invited to tour the school by student Jada Bailey after Gov. Chris Christie said he would not come for a tour last month.
Last month the Trenton Board of Education filed a lawsuit against the SDA, saying the administration has neglected the needs of the students of Trenton and has delayed repairs to the point that the district has to make emergency renovations using its own money.
Pasquine said the agency has been coordinating with the school board and local legislators to address the needs of the school and said since January a working group of members from the school board, department of education and the SDA have been meeting to identify the work that needs to be done at the school.
"Unfortunately, the SDA's involvement and construction activity at Trenton Central High School was severely mischaracterized, Pasquine said in a statement. "In fact, SDA's architectural design team, STV, has been at Trenton Central for weeks developing a plan that will supplement the ongoing efforts to improve the conditions at the high school. This plan will result in millions of dollars of state funding being invested in upgrades to the current high school building."
Pasquine said in addition to the current renovation plan, the SDA has provided funding to the district in the last two years including $391,000 for roof repair and replacement, and $62,629 for an exterior masonry project.

What is the difference between the US Treasury and the Federal Reserve?
The reason I wrote this post is, there is a lot of emotion and confusion circulating both about the role and the raison d'être for the central bank and the Treasury. The underlying premise is a government monopoly on the money supply is detrimental to the economy and ultimately limits people's freedom as it promotes the expansion and control of the state.
So what is the function of these two organizations? The correct, but non important answer is the Treasurymints the money, including the paper currency in circulation, and collects the revenue via the IRS. The treasury is actually a department of the US government. Read more about the functions of the US Treasury here.
In contrast, the Federal Reserve bank is autonomous. The Fed is the central bank for all USA banks and a lender of last resort. The Fed expands and contracts the money supply using the more broadly defined as M2 or even M3 definitions of money.Read more here about the purpose of the US central bank.
So what is the difference between the Federal Reserve and the Treasury and why is the Fed seen as the boggy man? Further, although the Treasury maybe not liked, (and the IRS constitutionally questionable) it is less out of the media crossfire today?
It is because the US Treasury is more transparent, and functional. It collects revenue, oversees the debt based on laws and the budget. It does not create the budget and debt but this is done by the President and congress. The Treasury is part of the problem but more taking marching orders from the President's budget.
In contrast, the central bank secretly and autonomously sets policy that dramatically affects your life. This is not democracy. It is no a conspiracy theory to say the centrally planned central bank royally screws things up.
Why the Federal Reserve is a failure? – Greenspan and Bernanke tried to help the US economy, but fail. Why? It is because there is a flaw in the economic theory that supports the central bank. The central banking system is based on theory as archaic as the Geocentric orbit theory. It is based on an old fashion ideas, a fallacy that the government can fine tune the business cycle and central planning of money is superior to free money.
What we have learned is, economics is not something that can be managed top down. Communism, Keynesianism, monetary management of the business cycle. It would all be better to let the markets work. Nothing is a clearer lesson in economics, than the failed economic experiments of the 20th century.
Why is the idea of the Fed creating money so bad? The central bank can in a round about way create money out of thin air. This can and does cause inflation. It exacerbates the business cycle and causes pain and suffering in the economy. It supports a government policy of increased debt, money creation and expansion. This is why today the Federal Reserve is taking a lot of heat.
What is important to know about the Federal Reserve:
The central bank was chartered:
to furnish an elastic currency, to afford means of rediscounting commercial paper, to establish a more effective supervision of banking in the United States, and for other purposes
- Logically seems to makes sense, but history shows it does not work. Further, there are other logical arguments by the Austrian school of Economics that would argue for free money and market forces determine the supply of money, rather than central planning of money.
- The Federal Reserve bank has the power. It controls the interest rates. If you control interest rates than you control the world. In one day you could push interest rates to 50% or 0%. This means it has a lot of power. Of course it would not do that, but it does not matter. An incorrect choice of interest rate policy, which is almost always the case, affects the world on and large-scale internationally and on a small-scale.
- It could be argued the Federal Reserve caused WWII. I am not joking. An over expansion of credit in the 1920s created the great depression which lead to the rise of opportunist dictators. How was the Federal Reserve not responsible?
- The Fed was created in 1913 to provide liquidity to prevent financial panics, such as in 1907, which could turn into a real sector crisis. However, since the economy is complex and can not be micromanage by turning dials and nob. This is why the Fed consistently gets it wrong. For example, the great depression, the Internet Stock bubble, the housing bubble to mention a few. From 1836-1913 the USA had no central bank and prospered, including the American "Gilded Age" and free bank era.
- The people who work at the Federal Reserve are well-intentioned economists. It is the idea that an economy can be steer from a top down approach that is crazy. The road to hell is often paved with good intentions.
What is the treasury?
The treasury is in charge of revenue and finances. That is really it. Think of the treasure like the bean counters and the Federal Reserve the wheeler and dealer bankers.
Does the Federal reserve create money?
Yes. The Chairman of the Fed might not operate the printing press, but he expands the money supply more broadly define with open market operations. The key point here is the money supply is more than just paper money.
What is money?
Anything people use as a medium of exchange. It can defined as gold, or anything people want to trade with. The economic definitions of M1, M2 and M3 which are modern definitions that take into account highly liquid deposits.
What about the idea the Federal reserve makes a profit, therefore is it good?
The idea that the Fed is a profit center is again wrong. They have made an accounting but not economic profit. They do not create anything. It is accounting and security trading – buying and selling. In my mind this is not value added profit. The Fed's profit means it takes money and 'crowds out' money from the private sector and gives it to the public sector. The Federal Reserve bank is evil any way you look at it.
I know that is strong language, but they literally have screwed things up and made millions suffer their inept policies. It has not stopped business cycle so it is time we abolish the Federal Reserve Bank and replace it with sound money. Sound money being optimally free money or at least replace fiat money with a gold standard.

Don't confuse social networking with educational networking
Facebook Now Growing By Over 700,000 Users A Day - AllFacebook, Feb 27, 2009
I will be the first to admit that I don't really understand the attraction of Facebook and its ilk. Yes, I have a Facebook page and have some professional colleagues and family members as "friends," but the site is not something I check or use on a regular basis.
I mentioned Facebook today in a workshop I gave here in SC during a "Tool Talk." (!0 web 2.0 tools in about 20 minutes.) When I introduce Facebook, I basically say the same thing I said in the first paragraph - I don't see the fascination, and more over, I don't see its educational usefulness. Other Web 2.0 tools, yes; Facebook no. But I do believe educators need to have a familiarity with Facebook and even use it personally, just to know what kids (and a rapidly growing number of parents) are up to.
A question was raised I had not before considered: Should a teacher "friend" his/her students on Facebook? My off the cuff response was absolutely not. I thought it violated the teacher/student relationship and could lead to actual or perceived inappropriate interactions.
So it was a relief to see Nancy Willard's strongly worded email to WWWedu today second my opinion. She writes:
Any teacher who links to a student on MySpace or Facebook is an ABSOLUTE FOOL!!!!! I strongly support and advise district policies against this for 2 reasons:
- There is a vast amount of flirting that goes on on these sites. Student get crushes on teachers. When a teacher gets a flirtatious message from a student, that teacher is already in trouble. Respond back with warmth and you are an online predator. Respond critically and the student could exact revenge. The teachers who are most likely to get into major trouble are the younger ones – who have not had to deal with student crushes before and who may still be in the flirting online mode. The risks include arrest and life as a registered sex offender.
- People on these sites send friendship requests to friends of people they have linked to. A teacher would become the "guarantor" of all of his or her online friends – including all of the material these friends post and the friend's interactions with students.
This being said, it is exceptionally important for teachers and student to be communicating in these interactive environments. Which means schools must set up carefully managed and monitored interactive environments.
Are we confusing social and educational networking? Again, Nancy warns:
There is – and should remain – a vast difference between "social media" and "educational media." When educators blur the distinctions, this causes significant problems.
Are schools making this distinction in policy-making?

Murder for Choir by Joelle Charbonneau
Published by Berkley, an imprint of Penguin
What Paige really wants is to be touring Europe with an opera company. She's come close in the past, but it just isn't happening right now. Really, she should be glad to have a job at all right now, even if it is just coaching a glee club in suburban Chicago. At least she's coaching the best singers at Prospect Glen, even they don't all necessarily have much faith that her operatic experience will translate int o a win for them. It isn't long, though, before everything begins to fall apart. School hasn't even started yet, Paige and the kids are still at choir camp when the much-loathed glee club coach at the rival high school is found dead and one of Paige's students is suspected of murdering him. Although she has only very recently met the kid, Paige is certain that he cannot have been the culprit and is determined to clear his name, even if it does put her in danger herself.
A glee club-based cozy mystery is the perfect fit for Charbonneau, an always funny and entertaining author with a background in music and voice coaching. Murder for Choir is definitely a change from her Rebecca Robbins series, adhering closely to the conventions of a cozy mystery, but it also has many of the hallmarks of her Skating books, such as an endearing heroine and the eccentric older relative.
Murder for Choir follows the basic cozy outline without seeming formulaic, and Charbonneau's humor ensures that it is always a joy to read. Pick it up, then when you thoroughly enjoy it, go back and read the Rebecca Robbins books as well.

Historic gulls fledge
The first Little Gulls ever to be born in Britain have successfully fledged, it was confirmed in late July. The nest was on the RSPB Scotland reserve at Loch of Strathbeg in Aberdeenshire, and the birds have been closely monitored since hatching, in the hope that the chicks would survive to take flight.
This is the first time that Little Gulls have successfully bred in Britain, and the news follows hot on the heels of the record increase in Common Tern numbers at the reserve.

Half of university faculty members have deployed the flipped classroom model or plan to within the next 12 months, according to a new survey from the Center for Digital Education and Sonic Foundry.
Other key findings of the report include:
"Based upon my experience, the benefits of the flipped classroom model far outweigh the challenges, and I've seen the difficulties associated with implementing the model decrease over time as efficiencies are realized," said Ralph Welsh, lecturer at Clemson University, in a prepared statement. "It has also allowed me to tailor my classroom time more toward answering specific student questions and discussing the material at a more applied higher level of thinking."
"Based on both our research and actual use cases, the flipped classroom model is critical in shifting our educational approach from a passive one to an active one that better prepares college students for their careers ahead by engaging them in the material," said Joe Morris, director of research and analysis, Center for Digital Education, in a news release. "Flipping classrooms is at the center of today's blending learning approach, and is one that makes best use of both faculty and student time when deployed effectively."
A webcast covering the findings of the survey is available at sonicfoundry.com.

solar charge controllers are powered by latest generation microprocessor and MPPT Technology. It makes your solar system generate maximum solar power – 30% more than ordinary charge controllers. The micro-processor enabled six stage charging ensures optimum charging of batteries which increases their life by 6 months.
- Off-grid solar systems
- Forklift
- Solar street light
- Household
- Telecom
- Extra Savings with Latest MPPT Technology Advanced MPPT technology boosts the current and voltage coming from the panels. For example, if the solar panels make 12v then MPPT solar charge controller will deliver 13v to the battery. This translates into more solar savings for you as batteries will get charged adequately and quickly. You get solar energy equal to 12 solar panels from just 10 solar panels.
- Automatic Protection against High Voltage and Current Very high voltage from solar panels if fed directly to battery may damage it. Su-Kam has made its solar charge controller intelligent enough to detect if there is very high current. When the current reaches beyond 25 amps (in the case of 20 amps battery), it automatically shuts down. It waits for 3.5 minutes and switches itself back on when the current and voltage are reduced to a safer level. It is all automatic so you don't need to worry!
- Innovative 6 Stage Charging Technology Increases Battery Life Su-Kam solar charge controllers are the only charge controllers in India to charge batteries in multiple stages – Desulphation, Soft Start, Bulk, Absorption, Equalization, and Float. Whereas, other solar charge controllers may only do two stage charging. 6 stage charging is designed to charge the batteries in the most efficient way while making the charging process quite quick. It increases battery life and reduces the need of water topping.
- Automatic Detection of Short Circuit to Keep Your Appliances Safe Su-Kam solar charge controller smartly detects a short circuit and disconnects the connected load without stopping the charging of batteries. When this happens, you will see that 'Abnormal' light on charge controller will start blinking. It waits for 3.5 minutes and will only switch the output on if the cause of short circuit has been removed.
- Automatic Battery Selection Su-Kam's solar charge controllers are designed to automatically detect the capacity of battery. It can tell if the connected battery is 12v or 24v and charge it accordingly. It regulates the charging current and voltage to make it suitable for the battery depending on its capacity.
- Equalization Feature to Remove Build-up of Sulphate Over a period of time this sulphuric acid in batteries causes build-up of sulphate on battery plates. If this sulphate buildup is not removed it makes the battery weak so our charge controller gives the battery a high 'equalizing' charge automatically every month. When the charge controller is giving this kind of charge to break down the build of sulphate you will see that 'Equalization' indicator will blink.
- Automatic Temperature Compensation Su-Kam's solar charge controllers can sense outside temperature and regulate boost charging voltage of battery based on that. When solar charge controller senses outside temperature of more than 25 degrees, it automatically decreases the boost charging voltage of battery so that it doesn't get overcharged. When outside temperature drops below 25 degrees, Su-Kam's solar charge controller increases the boost charging voltage of battery. Automatic Temperature Compensation technology ensures that batteries neither get overcharged nor remain undercharged. It also increases battery life.
- Run DC Load with Su-Kam's Solar Charge Controller Su-Kam's solar charge controllers can be connected to solar panels and DC load such as DC light, fan, or TV. A solar power system consisting of DC load is very energy efficient and saves more money.
- Prevents Reverse Flow of Current During nighttime when voltage of battery is more than that of solar panels, current could start flowing from battery to panels. This could be very harmful for solar panels. Su-Kam's solar charge controller ensures that the current always flow from panels to batteries, and never in the reverse direction.

Size 1 (5-15 Lbs) and size 2 (15-30 Lbs)
Made With 100% Absorbent Cotton. Parents enjoy using contoured cloth diapers because they are an economical alternative to fitted diapers. They are also a lot trimmer on your baby than prefold cloth diapers.
Contoured cloth diapers are shaped to fit your baby's body comfortably. Because neither contoured diapers or prefolds have elastic at the waist or legs, you will use a few more diaper covers than when using fitted diapers. Diaper covers will get soiled a bit more than with fitted diapers. We recommended getting ten diaper covers per size to accommodate for this.
For easy cleaning of your diaper and covers, you may want to use a diaper sprayer which rinses the stools off the diapers and diaper covers. A diaper sprayer, using fresh cold water, helps prevent staining. Also, you are not soaking diapers in a bacteria filled pail or toilet. A contour cloth diapering system is an excellent and practical way to cloth diaper your baby!
Tiny Tush Contours are trim through the crotch providing a slim, comfortable fit. Our contours have a loose liner sewn to the back of the diaper providing five layers of absorbent material in the "Wetting Zone" where it is needed the most. As a bonus, the diaper design allows it to dry quickly. When using a snug fitting Velcro type diaper cover, pinning is not necessary. However, the wings are long enough to pin if you so desire.
Made from super absorbent 100% cotton fabric. For newer babies, we recommend using 30 diapers and ten covers per size (newborn and small).

The move from 1057 to 1080 definitely counts best as an ending diagonal. The subsequent collapse in prices confirms it, The question is, at what degree? Top of Minute [iii] of C or true P2 peak?
I'd rather think its P2 peak. The Nasdaq only half filled its breakdown gap from 2008 and that is exactly as the DOW did in 1930 when it only filled half its 1929 breakdown gap. So in that respect...you got to take pause.
The DJUSFN made a new high today which very nicely caps off a 5th wave peak.
