| 12.2°C Dublin
THE signals that came out about the state of our economy last week were as clear as the slush in the gutters of Dublin city.
On the one hand, Davy said our economy would come out of recession in the first six months of this year, Standard Life told us that consumer confidence was up for the first time in 21 months, and Sherry FitzGerald stated that Irish house prices were beginning to stabilise.
On the other hand, the shortfall in our public finances is about €12bn more than it was this time last year. At 426,700, the numbers signing on the dole this year is almost 50 per cent higher than last.
A global survey by Knight Frank found that Irish house prices suffered the eighth sharpest fall in the world in the year to September 2009. And accountants Kavanagh Fennell said that four firms a day went out of business last year -- and that this trend would continue well into 2010.
With the Irish recession now a year-and-a-half old, most of us are sick to the teeth of it. Could 2010 be the beginning of the end of the economic downturn?
The Sunday Independent asked some of the top business brains whether or not we could see an end to the recession this year.
Tony Keohane
Supermarket boss
THE Tesco boss is optimistic that Ireland can kiss goodbye to the recession in 2010.
"The indications are that we are entering a period of stabilisation and it appears that things are beginning to bottom out," says Keohane.
As long as consumer confidence improves and there is an environment that promotes business investment then Ireland's economy could recover by October, adds Keohane.
"Consumer confidence has taken a hammering over the past 18 months or so. It is beginning to improve, albeit from historically low levels. The challenge now is to accelerate this recovery which in turn will stimulate domestic demand. Business investment must also be facilitated through credit availability and an environment that supports investment. This will help in creating new jobs and many other opportunities for new and existing businesses."
Keohane believes that if the global economy picks up, Irish companies with a strong footing in export markets will be among the first to recover.
Dermot O'Connell
Multinational boss
THE general manager of Dell Ireland says there are already signs that the economy will start to grow in the second part of this year. "International companies and multinationals have definitely started to do a lot more business here," says O'Connell.
"Ireland is more competitive than it has been in a good few years, so there are opportunities for companies to reinvest in Ireland. The challenge (for international companies) a few years ago was that there were not enough employees to hire -- that's not the case anymore. It's looking a lot more promising going into 2010 than it was last year when international companies were starting to hold back and defer projects." However, O'Connell has not seen the same pickup among smaller indigenous companies. "Some of these smaller companies are very conscious of costs and are taking a wait-and-see approach," he says.
O'Connell believes the IT industry will benefit from an increased drive among other companies to cut costs.
"More companies, including county councils, are looking at IT as a way of becoming more competitive and efficient," says O'Connell.
Alan McQuaid
With the global economy looking "quite strong", Ireland could come out of recession as early as May, says McQuaid, chief economist with Bloxham Stockbrokers. "In the initial stages of the recovery, highly skilled workers will do well.
"It will be hard for people with low skills to get jobs though. The construction sector has gone for the foreseeable future." With this in mind, it will take a while for any economic recovery to feed through to the property market, adds McQuaid. "If the economy recovers in the second half of this year, you may see house prices pick up in the second half of 2010. Overall, I think house prices will fall by between 10 and 15 per cent this year but you may see a modest pick up in prices towards the end of the year. Over five years, the average increase in house prices will be between five and six per cent."
Colin Morgan
Insurance boss
The chief executive of Quinn Insurance believes Ireland will emerge from recession in the second half of the year.
"This will particularly be the case if the global economy continues to grow," says Morgan. "There are a lot of businesses in Ireland that are export-led and an increase in global economic activity will allow them to start growing their businesses again, especially if they have reduced their cost base over the last few years, as many have done."
Robert Dunn
Telecoms boss
Dunn, the CEO of UPC Ireland, believes it is inevitable that Ireland will come out of recession this year.
"The level of economic activity is so low, we've got to a point where we've got to start growing again," says Dunn. "Any economic recovery will be export led, particularly from the farming and technology sector where you're already starting to see demand increase." However, any economic recovery will be "finely balanced", adds Dunn.
"There are opportunities out there now and some sectors have weathered the economy very well. But the potential negatives (for the economy) will be the impact of wage cuts as well as cuts in the National Development Programme. The question is whether or not the positives will outweigh the negatives."
Adrian Hegarty
Life assurance boss
The group chief executive of Friends First expects Ireland to come out of recession by the end of June -- but still thinks 2010 will be a challenging year.
"In the first half of 2009 the economy was in freefall so a year-on-year comparison should see a bounce in the first half of 2010, technically taking us out of recession," says Hegarty.
"One of the big positives is the rise in consumer confidence following the decisive cost-cutting actions taken in the last Budget. People now believe that we are taking the actions necessary to manage our way out of the current mess. In addition, the world economy is emerging from recession and this will be beneficial to Ireland."
Hegarty, however, believes there will be a "hangover to the recession" throughout 2010. "More companies who were just hanging on during 2009 will go out of business," he warns.
"While the pace of job losses is now levelling off, it is unlikely that any recovery in the labour market will occur during 2010.
"Businesses in the consumer sector will continue to be undermined by an increase in the personal tax burden, cuts in government spending announced in last month's Budget, and wage cuts in the public and private sector.
"The construction sector will remain very weak during 2010 and into 2011. Credit availability will continue to be a key area of uncertainty this year. In addition, given the perilous state of the public finances, there will be serious pressure on government ahead of the next Budget to cut spending further and increase taxes."
Tony Foley
Foley, a senior economics lecturer with Dublin City University, believes there is a 50/50 chance that gross domestic product (the value of goods and services produced) in Ireland will be higher in 2010 than in 2009.
"As long as there is no new international crisis, no new Irish fiscal crisis and no banking disasters, the Irish economy will definitely be growing in the second half of 2010," says Foley. "The main source of growth will be the multinational-dominated export industries." However, with expenditure by government and consumers set to be weak this year, it will be some time before we're out of the woods -- even if the recession ends, adds Foley.
"While the recession will be over, there will still be major difficulties for industries that depend on ordinary consumer expenditure and these constitute the vast majority of enterprises in the economy," he says.
"The end of the recession will not be a panacea for small and medium-sized enterprises. Neither will it recover lost employment and economic activity.
"It will not save many hundreds and possibly thousands of firms who are barely hanging on at present, living on supplier credit or unfulfilled hopes of a big and quick recovery.
"There are also likely to be serious problems with personal and business debt."

text: Haiti : End Violence and embrace economic growth Haiti is a free market economy with low labor costs and tariff-free access to the US for many of its exports. Two-fifths of all Haitians depend on the agricultural sector, mainly small-scale subsistence farming, which remains vulnerable to damage from frequent natural disasters. Poverty, corruption, vulnerability to natural disasters, and low levels of education for much of the population represent some of the most serious impediments to Haiti's economic growth. Remittances are the primary source of foreign exchange, equivalent to more than a quarter of GDP, and nearly double the combined value of Haitian exports and foreign direct investment. Currently the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere, with close to 60% of the population living under the national poverty line, Haiti's GDP growth rose to 5.5% in 2011 as the Haitian economy began recovering from the devastating January 2010 earthquake that destroyed much of its capital city, Port-au-Prince, and neighboring areas. However, growth slowed to below 2% in 2015 and 2016 as political uncertainty, drought conditions, decreasing foreign aid, and the depreciation of the national currency took a toll on investment and economic growth. Hurricane Matthew, the fiercest Caribbean storm in nearly a decade, made landfall in Haiti on 4 October 2016, with 140 mile-per-hour winds, creating a new humanitarian emergency. An estimated 2.1 million people were affected by the category 4 storm, which caused extensive damage to crops, houses, livestock, and infrastructure across Haiti's southern peninsula. US economic engagement under the Caribbean Basin Trade Partnership Act (CBTPA) and the 2008 Haitian Hemispheric Opportunity through Partnership Encouragement Act (HOPE II) have contributed to an increase in apparel exports and investment by providing duty-free access to the US. The Haiti Economic Lift Program (HELP) Act of 2010 extended the CBTPA and HOPE II until 2020, while the Trade Preferences Extension Act of 2015 extended trade benefits provided to Haiti in the HOPE and HELP Acts through September 2025. Apparel sector exports in 2016 reached approximately $850 million and account for over 90% of Haitian exports and more than 10% of the GDP. Investment in Haiti is hampered by the difficulty of doing business and weak infrastructure, including access to electricity. Haiti's outstanding external debt was cancelled by donor countries following the 2010 earthquake, but has since risen to $2.6 billion as of December 2017, the majority of which is owed to Venezuela under the PetroCaribe program. Although the government has increased its revenue collection, it continues to rely on formal international economic assistance for fiscal sustainability, with over 20% of its annual budget coming from foreign aid or direct budget support.

Artist Luke Hart working on Fractal Weave Structure I; credit Daniel Gower
Our model is progressive in that the basis for our financial planning is the creation of a self-sustaining business that is unreliant on grant funding in the long-term.
Utilising grant-funding in the short-term to support the development of our cultural programme, in delicate balance with increasing our commercial activity year-on-year, we are creating an new kind of arts organisation that can be self-sufficient of subsidy and support in years to come. The more commercial aspects will enable PSC to continue to offer our key services at a lower, subsidised price point, thereby enabling affordability to the widest breadth of artists.
Because our goal is to advance sculptural practice in the UK, profits generated will be reinvested to support this. This core commitment underpins our raison d'être and as such, key activities in this model aim to be profitable in ways that provide maximum benefit for PSC as a sustainable arts organisation en route to supporting the needs of its heterogeneous user base.
PSC is a not-for-profit. Established as a Community Interest Company (CIC) Limited by Guarantee, the organisation's aims and objectives are:
A CIC has a 'lock' on its assets which prevents profits being taken out of the organisation and which ensures all donations and assets are used to support the organisation's objectives. Our current programme is funded with the help of funding bodies, sponsors, trusts and foundations and private benefactors.
Resource sharing is central to all our activities and we continuously seek to develop new networks and reach new audiences through collaborations with partner organisations.
PSC offers a complete package of ways to engage with this art form from making to exhibition, talks and practical workshops to education and online resources. The support of funders can trigger greater activity in the area that best aligns with your interests, whether this be developing unique educational programming, sponsoring workshop equipment and materials or, supporting the development of exciting new art and its exhibition.
Please email the directors if you would like to talk to us about personalising where your support goes and our vision for PSC's future growth: firstname.lastname@example.com
Alternatively, you can donate directly here. Both large and small, donations make a big difference.
Proceeds from sales from PSC's limited editions online shop are split between the artists and PSC, reinvested into the running of our subsidised cultural and educational programme.

How To Go About Making The Choice Of A Certified Accident Lawyer
The workplace is one of the areas that people tend to spend a lot of time because of the activities that they carry out there. The performing of these activities is able to ensure that the employee gets paid so that they can handle the expenses in their lives. Most of the areas of work are well equipped to ensure that the employees do not get harmed in the process and hence comply with the safety regulations. The prediction of the accidents is a big problem and because of that, they cannot be stopped from happening. The employees that are breadwinners can be affected when the accidents occur at the workplace. Because of that, the worker may need some compensation to take care of the needs in hand as they undergo treatment.
The compensation should be gotten by the client from the courts if the client is hesitant to remit them. A specialist in the compensation of workers should, in that case, be needed. The choice of the client can be guided by a number of factors to make it really easy.
The first consideration that the client should have is looking for a party that is experienced. In the handling of the cases, the experienced attorney can be able to use the skills that they gather to deal with any upcoming issues. Experience is seen by the client if the attorney has handled similar jobs in the past and has received a positive outcome. The client should choose the highest experience because they can be able to argue best and get the client a reasonable compensation.
The consideration of the client should be made on the budget as the other factor. The availability of the resources should form the base on which the budget the client follows is made on and the cost of the lawyer should be able to fit within that. The mode of payment for the client should be stated in an agreement that there is and that is because it can prevent any conflicts in the future.
The consideration of the client should be given to the qualification as the other factor. Qualification is broad and can either be looked at in two aspects, either the training and the certification. The attorney should have attended law schools and have graduated to be fully trained. The lawyer should be admitted to the bar and permitted by the government to offer the services in the market.

Capital acts as a cushion against losses and as protection for members during periods of economic trouble for the credit union. Therefore, an institution's level of capital is an important measurement of its financial strength. From a safety and soundness perspective, the higher the capital, the better.
GREATER EASTERN racked up 20 out of a possible 30 points on our test to measure the adequacy of a credit union's capital, beating the national average of 15.65.
GREATER EASTERN's capitalization ratio of 20.00 percent in our test was above the average for all credit unions, an indication that it's stronger than its peers.
In this test, Bankrate tries to determine the impact of troubled assets, such as past-due loans, on the credit union's reserves set aside to cover loan losses, as well as overall capitalization.
A credit union with large numbers of these kinds of assets could eventually be forced to use capital to absorb losses, shrinking its equity buffer. Many of those assets are also likely to be in non-accrual status and no longer earning interest for the credit union, decreasing earnings and elevating the chances of a failure in the future.
On Bankrate's asset quality test, GREATER EASTERN scored 40 out of a possible 40 points, beating the national average of 38.09 points.
A lower-than-average ratio of troubled assets of 0.00 percent in our test was potentially indicative of superior financial strength compared to other credit unions.
A credit union's earnings performance affects its long-term survivability. A credit union can retain its earnings, giving a boost to its capital buffer, or put them to work addressing problematic loans, likely making the credit union more resilient in times of trouble. Credit unions that are losing money, however, have less ability to do those things.
GREATER EASTERN fell short of the national average on Bankrate's earnings test, achieving a score of 2 out of a possible 30.
One sign that GREATER EASTERN is running ahead of its peers in this area was its earnings ratio of 0.00 percent in our test, better than the average for all credit unions.
Bankrate.com's Safe & Sound Ratings provide a star rating system to evaluate the current financial status of financial institutions. The information gathered about banks, credit unions and thrifts is updated as set forth in the Terms of Use of Safe & Sound Ratings and Reports. The Safe & Sound Ratings information is grouped by categories of banks, thrifts and credit unions.
Bankrate.com evaluates the financial condition of institutions and assigns a one- to five-star rating for each with five stars representing the highest rating. Institutions with satisfactory performance will generally receive a rating of three or more stars. The majority of institutions fall into the three- to four-star range. An institution with an "NR" rating may be too new to rate or may have limited the publicly available information in their regulatory filings. The "NR" is not an indication of financial strength or weakness. The Safe & Sound rating is believed to be reliable, but the information is not guaranteed. In addition, events since the information was collected may have altered the institution's financial condition.

When it's too hot to can: slow roasted tomatoes
July 31, 2011 at 8:18 pm Dee 6 comments
Reprinted July 31, 2011/ I've never gotten the hang of canning and, let's face it, who wants to stand over a boiling cauldron during absurdly steamy weather anyway? But then, what to do with all of these home-grown tomatoes? About a year ago, local food artisan and writer April McGregor (The Farmer's Daughter) published the perfect solution in her online column for Grist: Slow-roasted tomatoes. Same idea as sun-dried, except in this case you put them in the oven on low (2225-250 degrees Fahrenheit) and let them cook very slowly all day long for large tomatoes, 2 hours for cherry tomatoes. You won't even break a sweat.
What you get are densely flavored, juicy, roasted tomatoes that can easily be kept in the fridge or freezer for a long time, or, if you insist, in a canning jar. I've tried this recipe with large Big Boys and tiny Juliets (small Roma style tomatoes) and the results are amazing. Now I have slow roasted tomatoes for salads, pizza, pasta, soup, quiche, bruschetta, and more. You store them in olive oil and can use the tomato-enhanced oil for salad dressing. Slow food at its tastiest.
Thanks, April! You made my summer (and winter!).
Here's her recipe:
"Similarly to the Sicilian semi-sun-dried tomatoes, large and juicy heirloom tomatoes can be slow-roasted in a low oven to reduce excess liquid, concentrate flavor, and increase acidity. Plus, we can keep the oven at such a low temperature that it doesn't even heat up the house. As an added bonus, this method couldn't be easier. There's no peeling or seeding involved. Even if you don't can them, they will keep covered in olive oil for several months in your refrigerator, where they will serve as your secret weapon. Chop for an instant pasta sauce; add zip to beans or soups; use as the basis for roasted tomato vinaigrette; pair with fresh mozzarella & a loaf of bread for a perfect picnic. The possibilities are endless, and the flavor is unparalleled. So what are you waiting for?
Roasted Heirloom Tomatoes
If you like you can pack different varieties of tomatoes in alternating layers in your canning jar, or you can separate them by color for more distinctive tastes and hues.
Makes about 3 pint jars
10 pounds heirloom tomatoes
1 head of garlic, cloves separated but not peeled
A couple of shallots, halved, but not peeled, optional
A handful of thyme sprigs
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
2-3 teaspoons kosher or sea salt
Your favorite fresh herbs for tomatoes–basil, marjoram, or oregano
A few dried red chili peppers, optional
Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper or foil. Preheat your oven to 250 degrees F.
Rinse your tomatoes, and slice them in half across their equator, or into thirds if they are particularly large. Line them on the baking sheet in a single layer, seed side up. Drizzle generously with olive oil. Scatter the garlic cloves, shallots, garlic, and thyme over the tomatoes. Sprinkle each tray of tomatoes with 1 teaspoon of salt.
Place the tomatoes in the oven and roast for about 6 hours (only 2 hours for small cherry tomatoes), until much of the tomato juices have evaporated, and the slices have shrunk to about ½ their original size.
Let the tomatoes cool at room temperature. Then with a spatula transfer the slices to your very clean pint jars (wide mouth canning jars will be easiest to deal with.) Layer fresh basil, or your preferred herb, between the slices of tomato, as well as the cloves of garlic and shallots that you squeeze from their hulls. Leave about 1 inch of headspace at the top of each jar.
Choose your Preserving Method
• Short-term: top with a 1 inch thick layer of olive oil and a clean lid, and they will keep in your refrigerator for 3-4 months.
• Long-term: Top the jars off with a thin layer of olive oil, leaving a good inch of head space. Date the jars and place them without lids into the freezer. Because liquid expands as it freezes, it is best to let the jars freeze without lids first to be sure that the jars to not crack. After your tomatoes are frozen, you can top with clean lids, and they will keep for up to one year. Alternately, pack the tomatoes in quart freezer bags, date them, and keep them for up to 1 year in your freezer.
• Long Term Shelf – Pack tomatoes into sterilized jars, leaving about 1 inch of head space. Add 1 teaspoon of lemon juice or red wine vinegar to your tomatoes and top off with extra virgin olive oil, leaving a final 1/2 -inch of head space. The added lemon juice or vinegar increases the acidity of your tomatoes even further to prevent the growth toxins or bacteria. Top with sterilized lids. Line the bottom of a large pot or canning kettle with a folded dishtowel. Place your jars of tomatoes in the kettle on top of the dish towel at least ½ inch apart. Fill the pot with water until it covers the tops of the jars by at least one inch. Bring the pot of water to a low boil. Adjust the heat to maintain a steady simmer and process the jars for 30 minutes. Carefully remove the jars with a jar lifter and place on a clean towel to cool completely without disturbing. Store on a cool, dry shelf for up to 1 year. "

I've been lax on our budget. I just got tired of writing what I spent on our calendar then transferring it to a spreadsheet. Instead of thinking of a better way to do it (I don't want to spend money on a system already proven because I never liked spending money on something that was suppose to save me money. Plus, I'm a smart girl, I can figure something out. So, I think I have it. I'm beginning the first of August, actually, tomorrow because I went out tonight and spent all I needed to before I start keeping track so I doubt I'll even go to the store tomorrow. We leave for vacation this week but I plan on having our credit cards paid in full by next month. That would include the cog railway tickets that are a rip off of $200 for a family of 5!! My mom says we have to do it though. It's a memory she will never forget and we didn't do it when we lived there.
So, there you have it. Feel free to ask me how I am doing. If I change the subject before answering chances are great that I'm failing.

I know I haven't been blogging but this isn't a post to say goodbye. I just got home from my sister's house. We all went to target. The two of us and a total of 5 children. All between the ages of 4 and 8. We were quite the site at target. My one nephew whispers worse than I do and when I whisper anyone in the same room can hear what I said. He had everyone looking but he wasn't the only one.
Anyway, when we left the store, they were in their car and we just got buckled in ours. We heard him yell something and then his mom and twin just laughed and laughed. You know I can't leave without getting in on the joke so I went to see what happened. My sister said George yelled "Goodbye Everybody" but John heard "Goodbye Aunt Bertha" and said "That's Aunt Janet" And then George started crying because he thought we were laughing at him.

As we were watching Jeff play volleyball:
someone calling for her friend, "Missy…"
Missy looks over and talks to her friend
Evan, looking at me, "that's funny"
Me, "what?"
Evan, "That girl forgot her friend's name so she called her Missy"
Little did he know that is her real name. I wonder if he ever heard the name before since all (just one really) of the Melissa's we know and love go by Melissa.

oh, I hope I didn't mess up. we really want to see Lawson's when we go to NH but they are leaving for Calif shortly after we arrive. The only way we could see them is if we leave the day before we planned, stay at a hotel and finish the 11 hour drive the next morning. Well, Jeff and I talked and since this is our second vacation this summer we are a little frugal (ok, I know, I'm always frugal). Anyway, we decided if we could get a hotel for $75 we'd do it. when I went to priceline it looked like we could only get something for $90 till I saw something in the corner. I clicked it, it took me to the Esa Fishkill Hotel and there we have it. For $74.75 we will be sleeping here. All the reviews (but one) were very favorable, that is not what I am concerned with. I just hope there is enough room for all of us. I just tried calling and the office closes at 11PM. Jeff, don't worry. I'm sure it'll be great. Either way, you'll get a bed. I'll confirm everything up tomorrow, after the play date with Chase and before Spanish class for the boys. It'll fit in the schedule, I know it will. Yiiikes.

This thing is like having a new born baby in the house again. There are two very tired Fraley's in the house today and it'll only get worse. They say it takes about 2 weeks to 2 months for this thing but the guarantee says a whole year. Can we go that long?? Positive thoughts are what will get us through. He's still so excited! Last night he was concerned with catching on fire from the thing and tonight he was concerned with it taking a whole year. I let him know if it takes a whole year we'd be sure to get our moneys worth so don't worry about it. He didn't quite understand but he knows we're rooting for him so it's all good.
ever happen to you??

we were on vacation last week. we had a wonderful time with my dad's side of the family. All 40-50 of us meet up at the beach for a week. there are about 6 different houses, including the hub, or as we call it "the big house". We had such a great time with our only schedule being, beach in the morning pool in the afternoon. there were days that we even veered from that and did the pool all day. the only other thing that was on the schedule was clean up day. once during the week everyone is signed up to either cook or clean up dinner for the gang. this year Jeff and I did set up and clean up. Next year I think we are cooking. Anyone know of a good (but easy) meal to feed 50?
Anyway, to get back to the title of this entry, whenever we go anywhere on a trip I clean the whole house. It just feels good to come back to a clean home. For some reason though, this trip was different. Everything was clean when we walked through the door but an hour later it looked like a tornado hit. Usually I conquer these tornado's but lately all I do is look at it, shrug, think "later" to myself and leave the room. I'm not sure what is going on but if this keeps up I'm going to go crazy. This feeling better change and quickly! I have a feeling now that I got it off my chest things will be looking good in a matter of
days hours.
Signing out to get some laundry done and the bathrooms clean. I have to keep up because someone in this house is trying out something similar to this tonight and I have to be ready for clean sheets. Hello, sleepless night. tomorrow I just know I'm going to be saying, "Hello tired whining child (and mom). It will work, just persevere."

Madonna, who has been very careful about her looks by taking all necessary measures to make sure she keeps up with the younger, fresher faces of music, will be incredibly upset to discover that outtakes from her Hard Candy promo shoot have been leaked on the Internet. Ahh, the Internet, what wonder...
Madonna's pictures show her age (although she has had plastic surgery) because they have not been photoshopped. Ooh, Madonna is going to make sure some heads roll for this one.
So check out the pictures of Madonna sans photoshop and decide for yourself if you appreciate all those lines in her face.

The test to find the light best for your application is this: stand in a lighted area, or in a dark area with full illumination in between you and the target area, and illuminate into the deepest area into which you will need to see detail.
If you can see detail, things are good.
If not, you either need:
A) a better beam focus or
B) more lumens.
Unless you are dealing with patrol car overheads and spotlights, I bet your issue will be beam focus. If you work around patrol cars, you need a properly focused beam AND 1000 Lumens.

To search and book flights to Jersey, please enter your travel requirements in the search form above, and click the search button.
A recent addition to the music festival scene is attracting large numbers of music lovers to the Channel Island of Jersey, with a number of headline attractions both on the music programme and alongside the festival itself.
The Grassroots Festival is billed as an eco music festival, which very much taps into one of the main cultural themes of the current times, and in addition to the acts on stage, there is the opportunity to visit the eco village that has become part of the festival.
Jersey, in the Channel Islands, offers visitors a unique blend of both British and French cultures, as it is within easy reach of both these countries, although it is officially a British Crown Dependency. The Grassroots Festival is just one of many events on the island that attract large numbers of international visitors, although the success of the relatively recently founded festival is bringing it a certain amount of attention in the music world. Visitors to the island of Jersey from the north of England can also reach the festival easily, given the air connections that are scheduled to Jersey from Liverpool John Lennon airport, and the flights from Liverpool are sure to be popular when the festival is running in Jersey, in late July.
Jersey has long been known as a relaxing and beautiful holiday destination, and the Grassroots Festival adds to the attraction specifically for music festival lovers.

Components of residential solar Electric system
A PV system components include PV modules (groups of PV cells), which are commonly called PV panels; one or more batteries; a charge regulator or controller for a stand-alone system; an inverter to covert solar power from direct current (DC) to the alternating current (AC) of the utility grid-connected system; wiring; and mounting hardware or a framework. A PV module arranges individual PV cells, and the modules are grouped together in an array. Some of the arrays are set on special tracking devices to follow sunlight all day long and improve system efficiency.
Solar Panels
Solar panels are the most noticeable component of a residential solar electric system. Solar cells are small, square-shaped panel semiconductors made from silicon and other conductive materials, manufactured in thin film layers. When sunlight strikes a solar cell, chemical reactions release electrons, generating electric current. Solar cells are also called photovoltaic cells or "PV cells" and can be found on many small appliances such as calculators.
Solar Array Mounting Racks
Solar panels are joined into arrays and commonly mounted in one of three ways: on roofs; on poles in free standing arrays; or directly on the ground.
Roof mounted systems are the most common and may be required by zoning ordinances. This approach is aesthetic and efficient. The main drawback of roof mounting is maintenance. For high roofs, clearing snow or repairing the systems can be an issue. Panels do not usually require much maintenance, however.
Free standing, pole mounted arrays can be set at height that makes maintenance easy. The advantage of easy maintenance must be weighed against the additional space required for the arrays.
Ground systems are low and simple, but cannot be used in areas with regular accumulations of snow. Space is also a consideration with these array mounts.
Regardless of where you mount the arrays, mounts are either fixed or tracking. Fixed mounts are preset for height and angle and do not move. Since the angle of the sun changes throughout the year, the height and angle of fixed mount arrays are a compromise that trades optimum angle for a less expensive, less complex installation.
Tracking arrays move with the sun. Tracking array move east to west with the sun and adjust their angle to maintain the optimum as the sun moves.
Array DC Disconnect
The Array DC disconnect is used to disconnect the solar arrays from the home for maintenance. It is called a DC disconnect because the solar arrays produce DC (direct current) power.
Solar panels and batteries produce DC (direct current) power. Standard home appliances use AC (alternating current). An inverter converts the DC power produced by the solar panels and batteries to the AC power required by appliances.
Battery Pack
Solar power systems produce electricity during the daytime, when the sun is shining. Your home demands electricity at night and on cloudy days – when the sun isn't shining. To offset this mismatch, batteries can be added to the system.
Power Meter, Utility Meter, Kilowatt Meter
For systems that maintain a tie to the utility grid, the power meter measures the amount of power used from the grid. In systems designed to sell power the utility, the power meter also measures the amount of power the solar system sends to the grid.
Backup Generator
For systems that are not tied to the utility grid, a backup generator is used to provide power during periods of low system output due to poor weather or high household demand. Homeowners concerned with the environmental impact of generators can install a generator that runs on alternative fuel such as biodiesel, rather than gasoline.
Breaker Panel, AC Panel, Circuit Breaker Panel
The breaker panel is where the power source is joined to the electrical circuits in your home. A circuit is a continuous route of connected wire that joins together outlets and lights in the electric system.
For each circuit there is a circuit breaker. Circuit breakers prevent the appliances on a circuit from drawing too much electricity and causing a fire hazard. When the appliances on a circuit demand too much electricity, the circuit breaker will switch off or trip, interrupting the flow of electricity.
Charge Controller
The charge controller – also known as charge regulator – maintains the proper charging voltage for system batteries.
Batteries can be overcharged, if fed continuous voltage. The charge controller regulates the voltage, preventing overcharging and allowing charging when required. Not all systems have batteries: for more on the types of systems. (Cleanenergyauthority)
PV System Installation, Maintenance, and Longevity
You could install a photovoltaic (PV) or solar electric system yourself. But to avoid complications or injury, you will probably want to hire a reputable professional contractor @ www.vanpeux.com with experience installing solar systems. While they are sophisticated electric systems, PV systems have few moving parts, so they require little maintenance. The basic PV module (an interconnected, enclosed panel of PV cells) has no moving parts and can last more than 30 years while requiring little maintenance. The components are designed to meet strict dependability and durability to withstand the elements. The best way to ensure and extend the life and effectiveness of your PV system is by having it installed and maintained properly. Most PV system problems occur because of poor or sloppy system installation

In the wake of Apple Inc.'s revenue warning, investors are finding that exposure to China is not all it's cracked up to be.
The unexpected revision late Wednesday is weighing heavily on China-exposed companies across sectors that have already been struggling to cope with trade war uncertainties. To top that off, Kevin Hassett, chairman of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, cautioned Thursday that more U.S. companies can be expected to lower earnings forecasts as the softer Chinese economy cuts into their sales.
A potential slowdown in China has been an overhang on investor sentiment for a while now, and intensified this week after key manufacturing data showed factory conditions there slumped in December. Apple conceded that it failed to foresee the "magnitude of the economic deceleration, particularly in Greater China."
Other bellwether companies that have also warned about a deteriorating economic environment in the country include U.S. delivery firm FedEx Corp., coffee giant Starbucks Corp. and jewelry retailer Tiffany & Co., as well as German automaker Daimler AG.
Caterpillar Inc. and Boeing Co., two companies that have borne the brunt of trade-related uncertainties and negotiations, dropped further on Thursday. Other notable names in the sector with sizable China exposure include Deere & Co., Emerson Electric Co., 3M Co. and Honeywell International Inc.
Auto parts suppliers Delphi Technologies Plc, BorgWarner Inc. and Lear Corp., which also have a big chunk of their sales coming from China, sold off sharply. And technology stocks were in a free fall, with the S&P 500 Technology Hardware & Equipment Industry Group Index down as much as 7.8 percent, led by drops in Western Digital Corp. and Amphenol Corp.
Separately, in another move that could be symptomatic of tighter operating conditions for businesses and companies, the U.S. issued a travel advisory Thursday urging increased caution in China, saying the country often uses its authority to prohibit American citizens from leaving.
As investors seek solace amid the broader sell-off, they are pouring into defensive sectors such as real estate and utilities. Weyerhaeuser Co., Ventas Inc., American Water Works Co. and Southern Co. were all higher.
U.S. stock market sectors with the highest exposure to China include technology, energy, industrials, consumer staples and consumer discretionary, according to a JPMorgan note that was published in July 2018.

Ever since I transformed my former MacBook Pro into a server I had been looking for something quite special: an easy way to remotely access its screen right from a web browser, without installing anything on the client. I finally found it. And it is amazing.
Remotely accessing a computer screen is not new. There are plenty of VNC solutions out there. We've got Team Viewer, AnyDesk, GoToMyPC, Chrome Remote Desktop and about a dozen more that are quite popular. But they all have a common problem: you need to install something on the client to access the server. In all cases you either have to download and install a small software or a browser extension in order to be able to manage the screen of the remote machine.
I can easily have a VNC connection to my Mac server from a Mac client. The built-in Screen Sharing app works great. But what about Windows ? My way of thinking is that if I am using a public computer, I cannot install anything on it. So for a year I carried a USB drive with a portable version of RealVNC. It works great on Windows... except the connection to the Mac Server screen is not encrypted. Not very good. And then, what if I want to connect from a Linux machine? Or a Chromebook?
Ubiquity is key, and I desperatly needed a way to be able to remotely access the screen using modern HTLM5 standards. For years I'd been betting on WebRTC and WebSockets but hardly could find anything substantial.
I looked around and found two main projects. NoVNC and Apache Guacamole. The promises were great. Exactly what I needed. Yet, the setup process is amazingly complex for a non developer user. Take noVNC on MacOS. It requires Websockets on the server, which means installing Websocketify, which means installing Python, which means installing XCode... Seriously, after 7 years and with nearly 80 contributors, why the fuck can't they just make a DMG/EXE/DEB file ? Those half baked projects piss me off, especially when you'd be ready to pay a yearly fee to support them.
Anyways, I kept looking and recently stumbled upon a new project, which is already quite advanced, and, yes, super easy to set up by anybody: DWService.net.
DWService requires to install an agent on the server (Windows, MacOS or Linux, but also Raspberry, Wandboard or Pine64) and to create an account. That account will enable you to manager in one place several remote machines. It is open source, it is free and it is super fast and ultra easy.
Right from a modern web browser, you are able to :
DWService is managed by just one italian guy and it is a very complete solution which offers very good performances on slow connexions. I am simply amazed of what it can accomplish. In fact, shortly after I made a small donation, I offered by service to manage a news blog and contribute to the social efforts. Because you don't often see such an amazing work.
Again, it's free and open source. Go test it yourself: DWService.net. I would not be surprised if we soon learn that Google or any other big companies invest in the project or hire the main developer.

Christmas is around the corner and the CMA is pulling out all the stops. The country organization wrangled some of country music's biggest stars to make the season bright.
With Reba McEntire hosting the evening, country stars like Luke Bryan, Brett Eldredge, Alan Jackson and more took us through Christmas classic after Christmas classic. While each performance saw country at it's best, we chose 5 performances that really stood out.
Watching these performances have put us in the Christmas mood and we hope they do the same for you. Enjoy.
5. Alan Jackson // "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas"
Alan Jackson singing Christmas songs? Hand us a glass of eggnog and move over as we sit by the fire and swoon. We will certainly have a merry little Christmas if Alan Jackson tells us too. "Merry Christmas ya'll." Thank you Alan.
4. Luke Bryan // "O Holy Night"
"O Holy Night" takes Luke Bryan out of his element, away from the uptempo butt-shaking hits. It was a nice change from the "Huntin,' Fishin' and Lovin' Everyday" singer that we'd love to hear more of in 2018.
3. Brett Eldredge // "Winter Wonderland"
Brett Eldredge singing Christmas songs never gets old. The Illinois native has a way of emotionally bringing us back to the '50s and '60s era with the likes of Frank Sinatra. While some of us weren't even alive then, many of us grew up listening to those greats singing us through the holidays.
2. Little Big Town with Reba McEntire // "Mary, Did You Know?"
Can we get some more of this please? Reba singing with Little Big Town, arguably the greatest harmonizing group in country music, was simply…how should we put it… music to our ears. We won't argue if this quintet wanted to take their act on the road.
1. Dan + Shay // "Do You Hear What I Hear?"
We all know that Shay Mooney has one of the best voices in country music but putting his vocals to the Powerful "Do You Hear What I Hear" with Dan Smyers on harmony is absolutely mesmerizing. We can listen to Shay belting out tunes like this all year long

Tommy Lee is behind bars
Plus, Eddie Van Halen, Black Rob, Britney Spears, Dana Carvey, a Backstreet Boy, and more
JAILED Tommy Lee spent Memorial Day weekend behind bars for parole violation. Pamela Anderson's estranged ex was jailed for five days beginning last Friday, after a closed session with an L.A. Superior Court judge in Malibu, Reuters reports. The judge also extended Lee's probation to 2003, and ordered him to resume random drug testing and to enroll in Alcoholics Anonymous. (The rocker was originally jailed in 1998 for kicking Anderson while she held their infant son.) Though no official details of the violation were available, prosecutors charged earlier in May that Lee was seen drinking.
ILLNESS Rumors that guitarist Eddie Van Halen is undergoing treatment for cancer of the tongue have been circulating the Internet all weekend, but the Houston hospital he visited last week today said that his tests came out NEGATIVE. Rather than treating the illness, a spokesperson said, the 45 year old chain smoker and recovering alcoholic is taking part in a cancer prevention clinic.
WANTED Bad Boy artist Black Rob skipped a court date Friday in New York, where he was supposed to face charges for his previously reported arrest for weapons and drugs possession. The rapper, who has spent nearly half his life behind bars, missed the opportunity to turn himself in, according to a Manhattan District Attorney spokesperson. He could get seven years if convicted. Bad Boy Entertainment has yet to respond to reports.
BE LIKE BRITNEY Britney Spears is sponsoring a summer camp, where 100 lucky kids can learn to sing and dance like the Mickey Mouse Club grad. Presumably, "Baby One More Time" will supplant "Kumbaya" around the campfire.
LEGAL BRIEFS Former "SNL" star Dana Carvey settled his $7.5 million lawsuit against a surgeon who operated on the comedian's wrong artery during a double bypass two years ago. Financial terms were not disclosed, but Carvey's lawyer expressed satisfaction with the deal…. Coordinators of an August Rolling Rock sponsored outdoor concert in Pennsylvania featuring the Red Hot Chili Peppers vowed that the show would go on, despite the possibility of a lawsuit. A resident who lives near the concert site, where some 25,000 fans are expected, has said that he fears his property will be damaged and threatened to sue. Concert organizers say they have acquired all the necessary permits…. Barry Bulsara, a man obsessed with Queen's Freddie Mercury, has been charged with the murder of Jill Dando, who presented British TV's "Crime Watch." The man reportedly changed his name to Bulsara, Mercury's real name, in honor of the rocker.
SHOPPING Backstreet Boy Brian Littrell caused a stir when he and his girlfriend tried to sneak into a suburban Atlanta Kmart to buy barbecue supplies for Memorial Day weekend. As he was quickly surrounded by a throng of squealing teens, a thief tried to seize the opportunity to sneak out with a TV set. Workers apprehended the crook, but not before the couple was also briefly detained. Next time, order in.
BLOCKBUSTERS Hollywood is on track to break its box office record for the third straight year. Revenues are up 9 percent from the same time last summer, though it remains to be seen whether this year's slate of big hits can ultimately match the pace set by "Star Wars: Episode One," which earned $431 million domestically and helped bring the total summer revenues to nearly $3 billion. Poor kids, they couldn't possibly afford to lower the ticket prices.
REEL DEALS DreamWorks has postponed the release of the Matt Damon–Will Smith flick "The Legend of Bagger Vance" from Aug. 4 to Nov. 3, saying that the Robert Redford directed movie is 75 percent complete…. Palme d'Or winning Chinese director Chen Kaige will make his English language directing debut with the erotic thriller "Killing Me Softly," starring Heather Graham…. "The End of the Affair"'s Neil Jordan will write and direct DreamWorks' "Lucrezia," about a powerful and corrupt Renaissance family.
CASTING Oscar winner Juliette Binoche is in negotiations to star in Miramax's "The Assumption of a Virgin," which will be directed by Oscar nominated Brazilian director Walter Salles. Al Pacino and Robert De Niro have also reportedly been offered roles…. "The Insider"'s Christopher Plummer is in final negotiations to join Ving Rhames in the cast of CBS' O.J. Simpson story, "American Tragedy"…. Ice Cube will star in New Line's "Stray Dawgz," about a parolee forced to save his sister from a new breed of L.A. werewolves. When did the old breed die out?
ONLINE Warner Bros. is set to distribute Internet original programming that will compete with its parent (and EW Online's parent) Time Warner's Netcaster, Entertaindom.com. The first site to launch will be TheOblongs.com, a 25-episode animated series cocreated by "The Simpsons"' Jace Richdale and "The Drew Carey Show"'s Bruce Helford. The 30-second sketches will appear on the Internet as a runup to the 2001 debut of WB's "The Oblongs," a half-hour show about a physically deformed family that lives near an industrial waste dump.
BOOK DEAL Michael Jordan signed a six-figure deal with Random House to collaborate with Washington Post sports writer Michael Wilbon on a bio entitled, "A Whole New Ballgame: Michael Jordan Comes to Washington," according to Publisher's Weekly.
OBIT Milo Speriglio, the private detective who devoted two decades to trying to prove that Marilyn Monroe was killed in a Mafia hit, died of lung cancer. He was 62.

Dubai, UAE (March 26, 2014): Pirelli, a global leader in the premium tyre segment, has opened a new store in Kuwait. Offering its signature premium tyres and tyre-related services, the store will offer the same comfort, convenience and range that has made it a globally recognized brand. It has been designed to be the biggest store in its segment in the region so far. The store was launched in partnership with Behbehani Motor Company. In keeping with its aim to provide customers with a comprehensive premium-segment experience, the company trains all its staff members and ingrains competence so that the customers have the perfect feel-good experience.
Pirelli was founded in 1872 and has grown significantly since then. It has 19 tyre industrial plants in four continents and is widely available in more than 160 countries around the world.
It is no wonder then that the company has decided to expand its reach to the Middle East, a sector where the luxury car sector is a popular one.
"Kuwait is perfect starting point this side of the world. People know what they want here and we look forward to providing the best fit. Our motto is to offer customers a feel-good experience and this is ourendeavor," says Mattia Bussacchini – General Manager, ME and India.
Behbehani Motor Company partners with Pirelli in this endeavor. "We are proud to extend our support to the pioneer and look forward to delivering quality services to our clients. Our mission, as a service provider, is to deliver the highest level of customer satisfaction. Hence, we invested in excellent infrastructure in our showrooms and service center as well as in highly trained professional staff who will not only meet, but exceed our customer's expectation. This collaboration is in line with these goals and we look forward to our customers' feedback," says Abdulghani Behbehani – Director of Behbehani Tire Center.
The Pirelli store in Kuwait is in line with the company's expansion plans. The store is one of the 4 that have already opened their doors to the public currently- the other 3 being in Jeddah (KSA), Bahrain and Dubai (UAE). The company will open 32 new Pirelli shops by the end of the year. " We hope to cover ground quickly and with all the quality that can be found on our global branches," says Bussacchini.
Year on year, the luxury car segment has been growing in the region. To cater to the growing demands, Pirelli has launched a string of services such as high quality tyre change services in its workshops. With five bases for cars and four for trucks, quick service and a feel-good experience is guaranteed when you visit the store.

Price: 19,800 yen
Discs: 1
Sound: A-Mode
Running Time: 23 minutes
Released: Sony
The Hi-Vision Laserdisc equivalent of A Video Standard / Avia Setup Disc / Video Essentials DVD setup discs. The disc also comes with a blue filter for calibration.
In addition, it has sound test set-ups, resolution patterns (in 16:9 format only), color tests, etc. Additionally there is quite a bit of Hi-Vision footage from other Sony scenery discs (Fish Face of Okinawa, Alaska, Paris) as well as footage unique to this disc (more below)
I can't comment much on the test patterns other than they can help you set up your system properly. I will say some of the test patterns with a lot of red in them have chroma noise and slight bleeding in the patterns.
Picture quality on the test footage is anywhere from very good to downright amazing. What's good? The beach sequences (also used to test sound with white noise), Alaska shot scenes, the outdoor European scenes all stand out as good to very good.
Want amazing? One of the test sequences shows a young Japanese girl go from "plain Jane" (no makeup, etc.) to a high class model after a make up session. This whole sequence shows how amazing Hi-Vision can be. Close ups of the girls face reveals each and every pore and hair on her face, with very clean and neutral skin tones. The make-up is often shown in a multitude of colors on screen at once. The picture here is saturated and sharp. Just beautiful to watch, like looking out a window.
Another shot of a high speed riverboat running up a narrow and treacherous river shows that fast action can still come across nearly artifact free. Basically the equivalent of an MPEG motion test on DVD. There is basically no glaring compression artifacts and none that I can point out. I'd have to go frame by frame to pick out any problems.
There is also a clip from Fish Face of Okinawa that is just also amazing to look at.
While demo clips on this disc are minimal, they just
Sound is limited to the demo sequences, and is presented in the A-Mode format only. Great sound, very clean and lively with surround channels getting some action to them along with the subwoofer (especially during the river run!). I can't find a problem here at all.
A great HDTV test disc by any means, and although "test"
footage (i.e. demo material) is limited, I'm glad I own this disc. Just amazing !

He said 'I bet you get everything you want,'
I thought,
and everything I don't.
He said 'I bet you get everything you want,'
I thought,
and everything I don't.
I go through phases—
like the moon;
I think our love
is waning.
I have a dream catcher
in my room.
They say they take your nightmares away.
I hung it
on the wall.
So what I really want to know is,
why the fuck
are you still here?
I drink water
because wine isn't cheap.
I sleep with you
because neither is therapy.
Your arms around mine,
a pumpkin vine—
we grow.
I press hot fingernails into flesh,
my red venom contrails on your spine.
You strum my softness nimbly—
I guess that's why they call it
It's almost Halloween.
The neighbors put up those fake spiderwebs
I drop my keys
and get caught up—
How fucking appropriate.
As soon as I untangle myself
from your sheets
I get tangled up in these infernal webs.
I'm just.
to get home.
