WELLSEE Solar Charge-Controlling Inverter is designed with a controlling system for the storage battery' s charge and discharge, which can effectively protect the service life of storage batteries. It is an integration of a charger and an inverter, and an extra Solar Charge Controller is not necessary.
What is the sustained output power? What is the peak output power?
Some electrical appliances or tools which employ electric motors, such as refrigerators, washing machines, electric drills etc. need to take great strong electric current to drive at the moment they get started. However, once they have gotten stated successfully, only a little electric current is needed to maintain their normal working. Therefore, there is the concept of sustained power output and peak output power for the inverter. The sustained power output is rated output power. Generally, the peak output power is twice as much as the rated output power. It must be emphasized that some electrical appliances, such as air conditioners, refrigerators etc. can take 3-7 times as much electric current when getting started as they need in normal working. Therefore, only the inverter which can meet the starting peak power can work normally.
What is the efficiency of an inverter?
An inverter itself consumes some electric power at work; therefore, its input power is greater than output power. The efficiency of an inverter is the power ratio of input to output. For example, if an inverter is input 100W DC and outputs 90W AC, then, its efficiency is 90%.
How to determine the storage battery's capacity based on electrical appliances?
It should be the lead-acid storage battery that can charge and discharge power in deep cycles to support an inverter. For the storage battery with deep-discharging function, the general unit of measurement for capacity is ampere-hour (AH) which indicates the quantity of current that the storage battery can supply in a unit of time (usually 20 hours). For example, a storage battery with a quantity of electricity of 100AH indicates that it can supply 5 amperes electricity within uninterrupted 20 hours, that is 20×5 = 100.
The storage battery is a very important component in an inverter system. The users should choose the battery of good quality and great capacity when choosing to buy storage batteries. The storage battery of great capacity can be used for a long time; meanwhile, it can provide sufficient electrical current for the instant starting of some high-power electrical appliances. For those high-power electrical appliances, it is suggested that the storage battery should be of 200AH (<1000W), and if the power is even higher, the battery of 400AH should be the best.
How to choose an inverter?
The following matters should be made clear before choosing to buy an inverter: Make sure the voltage of DC input, volume of load and type of load. A normal inverter has only one stall of DC input voltage, and the users need to select the inverter corresponding to the specification of DC power; the volume and type of load are the items on which the users should focus when choosing to buy an inverter. As the largest output power of an inverter is fixed, the starting power of a load with a compressor is several times as much as its rated power, so the users should choose an inverter with larger output power for it.
A simple way is to multiply the power of all electrical appliances and the battery's working time between each recharging together.
Consumed Electricity
Using Hours (Charging Time)
WH (Power×Using Hours)
3 Hours (1 hour a day)
Coffee Machine
1Hour (20 minutes a day)
Microwave Oven
0.5 Hour (10 minutes a day)
4.5 Hours
Divide WH by 10, and we will change WH into AH (at 30°C): 1495WH÷10 = 149.5AH
A 150AH storage battery can meet the needs for the load above. But in this case, the storage battery will be exhausted, and generally, 50% should be the condition of a storage battery in its ideal discharging state. Therefore, the users will need a 300AH battery for the load mentioned above. The more quantity of electricity (AH) a storage battery has, the stronger its capacity of power supply can be, and the possibility of over-discharging will be less accordingly.

I'd love to be a Princess. Seriously, how cute am I with a crown on my head? I'd rock it.
There's no way I'd be good at being part of a royal family, but the whole admiration from the entire world slash endless money slash marrying a prince thing would be pretty Awesome.
Plus, I'd never have to clean a toilet ever again.
If given the chance, I could make it work. Even though the Brits just changed their laws to allow for a first-born daughter to become the heir to the throne, I don't think they're going to change anything to allow for married American moms to be crowned Princess to their throne. My dreams of being the Princess for a 1st world country will never come to fruition.
And then I heard that my dreams may not be squashed forever. A loophole found in the fabric of our politics! A way for American women to become PRINCESS!
American civilians are crowning Princesses on national TV!
Not only is Herman Cain campaigning for the Republican nomination in the never-ending bid for our nation's presidency, but he's also royalty.
He showed off his new monarch status in the most recent of the perpetual Republican "debates" when he referred to Representative Nancy Pelosi as, "Princess Nancy."
HOW LUCKY IS SHE!?! Not only is she the first woman to have ever been the Speaker of the House, but now she's a mother fucking PRINCESS?
We all thought she'd reached the pinnacle of her career when she was the first woman to be 2nd in line to the office of the President. But she's now a Princess, crowned by someone who has never held a political office? DREAM. COME. TRUE.
Since announcing our first-ever American Princess, Mr. Cain tried to remove Fancy Nancy's crown, saying he "probably" shouldn't have made the pronouncement. You can't take it back now, Mr. Cain. You announced it on Twitter, and Twitter is forever. Once you're a Princess, you're a Princess for life. No take-backsies you scoundrel, Mr. Cain!
America is an amazing place to call home, where a woman can go from being a mother to being an elected official in the highest office short of the White House to being a mother fucking Princess.
Well done, Princess Nancy. We stand with you and revel.

Emily Jacir
Emily Jacir (Arabic: املي جاسر), is a Palestinian artist and filmmaker. Born in Bethlehem in 1973, Jacir spent her childhood in Saudi Arabia, attending high school in Italy. She attended Memphis College of Art and graduated with an art degree. She divides her time between Rome, Italy and Ramallah.[1]
Emily Jacir
|1972 (age 46–47)
|University of Dallas, Memphis College of Art
Jacir works in a variety of media including film, photography, installation, performance, video, writing and sound. She has exhibited extensively throughout the Americas, Europe, and the Middle East since 1994, holding solo exhibitions in places including New York City, Los Angeles, Ramallah, Beirut,[2] London and Linz.
Active in the building of Ramallah's art scene since 1999, Jacir has also worked with various organizations including the A. M. Qattan Foundation, al-Ma'mal Foundation and the Sakakini Cultural Center. She has been involved in creating numerous projects and events such as Birzeit's Virtual Art Gallery. She also founded and curated the first International Video Festival in Ramallah in 2002.[3] She curated a selection of shorts; Palestinian Revolution Cinema (1968 – 1982) which went on tour in 2007.[4] Between 2000 - 2002 she curated several Arab Film programs in NYC with Alwan for the Arts including the first Palestinian Film Festival in 2002. She works as a full-time professor at the vanguard International Academy of Art Palestine since it opened its doors in 2006 and she also served on its Academic Board from 2006 through 2012. Jacir led the first year of the Ashkal Alwan Home Workspace Program in Beirut (2011-2012) and created the curriculum and programming after serving on the founding year of the Curricular Committee from 2010-2011.
Recent juriesEdit
- 2010 - current: Civitella Advisory Council, Italy
- 2010 Young Artist of the Year Award, A.M. Qattan Foundation Ramallah
- 2012 Cda-Projects Grant for Artistic Research and Production, Istanbul, Turkey[5]
- 2012 Berlinale Shorts Film Jury, Germany[6]
- 2012 CinemaXXI Jury, Rome Film Festival, Italy[7]
- 2014 Visions du Reel Festival International du Cinéma, Nyon, Switzerland
- On 17 October 2007 she won the 'Leone d'Oro a un artista under 40' - (Golden Lion for artists under 40), - at the 52nd Venice Biennale for "a practice that takes as its subject exile in general and the Palestinian issue in particular. Without recourse to exoticism, the work on display in the central Pavilion at the Giardini establishes and expands a crossover between cinema, archival documentation, narrative and sound".[8][9][10]
- She was the recipient of the 2007 Prince Claus Award, an annual prize from the Prince Claus Fund for Culture and Development, Hague, which described Jacir as "an exceptionally talented artist whose works seriously engage the implications of conflict."[11]
- She is the winner of the 2008 Hugo Boss Prize by the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation. The Jury noted that she won the award for her "rigorous conceptual practice—comprising photography, video, performance, and installation-based work—bears witness to a culture torn by war and displacement. As a member of the Palestinian diaspora, she comments on issues of mobility (or the lack thereof), border crises, and historical amnesia through projects that unearth individual narratives and collective experiences."[12]
- She is the Visual Arts winner of the 2011 Alpert Award in the Arts.[13]
Major worksEdit
Memorial to 418 Palestinian Villages Destroyed, Depopulated, and Occupied by Israel in 1948 (2001)Edit
Developed during her residency at P.S.1's National Studio Program, Jacir opened her studio to Palestinians, Israelis, Americans, Egyptians, Syrians, Yemenis, Spaniards and others to embroider a refugee tent with the names of Palestinian villages impacted by Israeli expansion.[14]
"Memorial to 418 Palestinian Villages is mobile and vulnerable—resisting any false appeals to closure. It is not a didactic monument, but a sensitive, painful testament to a desperate tragedy that needs to be addressed and aches to be mourned."[15]
Where We Come From (2001-2003)Edit
Jacir, holder of an American passport, asked more than 30 Palestinians living both abroad and within the occupied territories: "If I could do anything for you, anywhere in Palestine, what would it be?" She collected responses and carried out tasks in an extended performance of wish-fulfilment by proxy. The documented result was shown in New York[16] to great critical acclaim; "Where We Come From is [Jacir's] best so far. An art of cool Conceptual surfaces and ardent, intimate gestures, intensely political and beyond polemic, it adds up to one of the most moving gallery exhibitions I've encountered this season."[17][18]
The work was acquired by San Francisco Museum of Modern Art,[19] which added an extra text to Jacirs work.[20]
Crossing Surda (2003)Edit
""Crossing Surda" (a record of going to and from work), exists because an Israeli soldier threatened me and put an M-16 into my temple. [Ms. Jacir says she was filming her feet with a video camera at a checkpoint that day.] If I had not had this direct threatening experience this piece would not exist."[21]
- Tom Vanderbilt Emily Jacir - Openings,[22] February 2004, ArtForum.
Accumulations (2005)Edit
"Ms. Jacir's deft extrapolation of the issues of identity from the specifics of experience, like her renewal and extension of what might be called classic Conceptual Art, is enormously impressive."[23]
Material for a film (2005-ongoing)Edit
"In Material for a Film (2005–ongoing) the displacement is total, as Jacir's own identity is substituted for that of her subject, Wael Zuaiter, a Palestinian intellectual living in Rome who was assassinated in 1972 by Israeli agents, having been mistakenly identified as one of those responsible for the murder of Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympics in Munich. The installation gathers together photographs, books, music, letters, interviews, telegrams, copies of the Italian magazine Rivoluzione Palestinese to which Zuaiter contributed, even a clip from a Pink Panther film in which he had a small part, to flesh out a life no longer there."[19]
"Jacir is a quiet and mercurial art-world figure, less than a decade deep into her career, and her Boss show rejects the obvious opportunity presented for leverage, debutante-style, as a headliner on the New York art stage and in the media that starts here. In fact, the only character in sharp focus for this exhibition is Wael Zuaiter, a Palestinian intellectual killed by Israeli secret service agents following the murder of eleven Israeli athletes and a German police officer by the militant group Black September at the 1972 Munich Olympics."[24]
Howard Halle criticized the pieces in an article in Time Out New York, writing, "That such a crude, self-indulgent exercise has been given one of contemporary art's most prestigious awards is unfortunate, though not, sadly, entirely unexpected."[25] Another critique by Ken Johnson of The New York Times said that, "If the ultimate point is to arouse humane concern for Palestinians in general, Ms. Jacir's work falls short."[26]

stazione (2009)Edit
In 2009, Jacir participated in the Venice Biennale in the Palestinian Pavilion. She created a site-specific public project to take place in Venice during the Biennale. The Venice City Authorities shut down Jacir's project and refused to allow it to take place.
"Significant by its absence at the Venice Biennale was Emily Jacir's contribution to the official off-site exhibition, 'Palestine c/o Venice'. Jacir's artwork, Stazione, would have seen all of the piers for the Route 1 water bus (the vaporetto that runs up and down the Grand Canal) display the stop location names in Arabic as well as the usual Italian. Mockups were made, the Biennale approved, the council approved and the vaporetto company that runs Route 1 approved. Then suddenly it didn't. Apparently the vaporetto company stopped the project, and all the artist could find out, second-hand, was that they had 'received pressure from an outside source to shut it down for political reasons'."[32]
"Emily Jacir's stazione (2008 - 2009) is an unrealised intervention on the number 1 vaporetto (water bus) line, a main transport route along the Grand Canal beginning at Lido winding its way to Piazzale Roma, ferrying audiences from one Biennale exhibition to another, by inserting Arabic text supplementing the existing Italian names at vaporetti stops and thus making the route bilingual. In the artist's explanation, the work references the numerous Arab influences and exchanges in the history of Venice, its architecture, manufacturing, shipping, and of course in the process of these activities, language - that Arabic words too have filtered into the Venetian dialect - 'divan', 'damasco', 'gabella', amongst others."[33]

I think we should talk a bit about this. With the help of icons in the game, we can communicate to a minimum level. It would be great to have chat and voice communication during the war. It would even be terrific! 😀 Sorry about that. I was excited. You know why. I will tell my problem. We are right in the middle of the war, apart from us, alone, helpless 😀 I like that people, really. Because there are also the same players from the enemy 🙂
Now what do we do friends, yes there is a complete reporting system. Report it? Or will you be informed about the game by talking or typing? This may be more useful. I just said my own opinion. You can also support me with your comments.
Join Us? You can register, have a your profile page, follow each other and sharing tactics-tips. Set up matches in Mobile Legends, add friend… Register
Thx for everything 🙂

Lawmaker Seeks Food Stamp Soda BanAugust 29th, 2017 by Mike Vasilinda
For the second year in a row a freshman legislator, who is also a medical doctor, wants to ban food stamp recipients from buying soda or candy for their kids. But as Mike Vasilinda tells us, both recipients and retailers think the ban is a bad idea.
We met Deanna Williams outside a state food stamp office after she got laid off as a 911 dispatcher.
"When you go into this office…sometimes you just feel this big" says Williams as she gestured with her fingers.
Williams says a proposal to ban the purchase of soft drinks and candy with EBT cards will only make recipients feel worse. That idea comes from Rep. Ray Massullo, a Citrus County physician.
"I see the trend of obese children in our society. And I think its important that we provide them nutritional foods" Massullo told us.
Williams agrees, but she says when parents spend more on healthy vegetables, the health gains are lost to lower quality meats and other fillers.
"The worst cuts of meat. The off-brand foods. The foods that are high in fat."
Nationally, about six percent of all electronic benefits purchases go for soda or candy.
It was the Florida Retail Federation's opposition that killed the idea earlier this year. James Miller says it's not about sales but consistency.
"We just want it to be consistent across the board for all our members in all our states" say Miller.
The legislation is now one of the first bills filed for 2018. Deanna Williams says denying poor kids a soda is too much big brother.
"And I don't think it's right for anyone to dictate what they're allowed to eat. Or drink."
But some lawmakers say that depends on who's paying.
Food stamp recipients are already barred from using their benefits to buy beer, wine, liquor, cigarettes or tobacco. Nonfood purchases such as pet foods and vitamins are also prohibited.

Another one bites the dust
I wonder if this is not a spare parts supply problem
I've been seeing a lot of newsbits under the radar about this since last year.
Just as Bush/ Rumsfeld miscalculated on troop size, armored vehicles and everything else, they miscalculated the extent of the engagement and the difficulty to provide high tech repair and maintenace to our very fussy technology.
Just a matter of time till they all start to fall down when faced with a stiff breeze...
An Army helicopter crashed in southwest Baghdad on Friday night, and the fate of the crew was not immediately known, a U.S. military official said. U.S. military officials do not believe the helicopter was hit by hostile fire. The crash comes two days after a U.S. helicopter transporting troops went down in bad weather in the western desert, killing 30 Marines and one sailor — in the deadliest single incident for U.S. forces in Iraq

I got this next idea from Honey Bee Books. As soon as I saw it, I thought, "We could make monsters that way!" So I put out styrofoam cups, pipe cleaners, eye stickers, markers, and leftover dyed pasta that I stuck on glue dots.
And the kids did whatever they wanted with the supplies to make their own monsters.

Press and news that features Ravines Wine Cellars
Ravinous Club members will be receiving their club boxes for May 2015 soon. One of the four wines in this collection is our 2011 Meritage, a Bordeaux-style blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon and 28% Merlot.
This wine has opened up tremendously since it was released last fall. Right now, tastes of red cherry predominate at first, giving way to woodsy notes; there is a long finish of red currant and raspberry.
Compared to other Ravines Meritage releases in a recent vertical tasting, the 2011 is still young, but shows great potential for the future. This year's blend is the first with no Cabernet Franc, so it tastes fresh and bright. (In comparison, the 2005 vintage was predominantly Cabernet Franc. The 2006 through 2010 vintages each contained approximately 25% Cabernet Franc.)
Come try the 2011 Meritage at either of our tasting room locations, perhaps as part of a pairing with local cheeses. We feature Meritage paired with Keeley's "Little Pond", a semi-soft cow's milk cheese from a friend of ours on Cayuga Lake.

This won't be my last word on the subject, I've been plotting and planning a final fond farewell for a day or two now, thinking through my opinions and options and how to present them to you, but that isn't this. Or, the other way around. This is sort of a free bonus post, wasn't planned, just happened. To explain:
I was walking down Hang Bac Street (the continuation of Hang Bo Street, which is where I live here in Hanoi), looking for supper a little earlier this evening. I'd made up my mind it would either be a Doner Kebab, a local specialty sandwich, with what amounts to pork gyros on a squished and toasted flat bread, completely smothered in slivered cabbage, onions, tomatoes and so forth. . .with what might be a garlic and yogurt dressing, or might be almost any white sauce, with garlic. . .inexpensive, messy as all get out and really quite good. I eat a lot of them when I'm in Hanoi. . .OR, alternatively, it might be a rice, vinegared cucumber and chicken leg sort of supper from the tiny new restaurant just a bit further down the street. It's the sort of decision making I have to do here. . .the $1.50 messy sandwich, or the $2.50 chicken leg and rice. Either one was at the end of my hike, within a few steps of each other, and I was busily turning the matter over in my head as I stumped along dodging mayhem from all directions (evening on Hang Bac. . .very very busy) WHEN SUDDENLY, something bit me on the leg. That was a shock and I jumped back to see who it was. That's when I saw this. . .
|Holy Cow. She has a nasty bite, but I guess she was offended I was walking by without paying my respects.
|How 'bout that bar-end clutch lever??
|No speedometer, but it looks like she won't blow up before 10,000 rpm or so. Wow
|Aha. . .here's a hint. Either she borrowed the badge or she's a Peugeot.
|She's being crowded on the off side, hard to get a clear look. . .
|Note the dual exhausts. . .but it's only one cylinder, look for the intake manifold!
|Yes, that's what it is all right. Can't tell how many speeds she has though, no markings and maybe no detents. H'mm.

A nice place to buy a car!
"Bought my daughter's first car here recently. It took a total of 3 visits to complete the purchase and each visit was a pleasant experience.
Salesman Zak was extremely helpful & obliging whilst we were choosing a car to suit our first time driver.
All the cars on show are well presented and the final valet before collection made our purchase look stunning!
I won't hesitate to return when it's my turn for a new car!"

- SLEDDING: When at least two inches of snow has fallen, we all know it's time to head to the sledding hill at beautiful Holmdel Park, Holmdel. This supervised sledding area is open when two or more inches of snow cover the hill and is often groomed by Park System Rangers to assure it is safe and there aren't any rough patches coming through. Conditions permitting, normal sledding hours are 8 a.m.-7 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays, and 8 a.m.-9 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. Call Holmdel Park at 732-946-9562 for current sledding conditions or check for updates on our Winter Activities web page.
- ICE SKATING: Lace up those skates, because when the conditions are right and the ice is at least five inches thick, skating may be available at Holmdel, Shark River and Turkey Swamp Parks. It normally takes at a week to 10 days of subfreezing temperatures to produce safe skating conditions. When the ice is considered safe, skating hours are from 8 a.m.-7 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays, and from 8 a.m.-9 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays. Please Note: Skating is considered safe when the "Skating Today" signs are posted. You can also find the most updated information on our Winter Activities web page.

- The deep penetrating hoots of courting great horned owls – one of the earliest birds to breed - might be heard in Huber Woods Park, Middletown.
- Chickadees, crows and blue jays that live in forests.
- The absence of squirrels as they go into dormancy during the very cold weather.
- The red fox will grow a thick fur coat during very cold weather and might be see in Thompson Park, Lincroft.
- The hairy woodpecker's territorial drumming in the woods.
- Eagles from northwestern states or Canada – places where there is little ice-free water, a critical habitat requirement- may join our eagle pairs here in Monmouth County.
- The chickadee's territorial call in the woods – phee-bee - might be heard in Clayton Park, Upper Freehold.
- Black-capped chickadees and tufted titmice sing repeatedly in the morning.
- Meadow voles (aka field mouse) traveling and breeding in tunnels beneath the snow.
- Wintering ducks populate the salt ponds. Bufflehead and goldeneyes feed during the day while scaup and canvasback can be spotted diving for food in shallow salt water around dawn and dusk.
- Elders, loons and mergansers might be seen from Bayshore Waterfront Park, Port Monmouth, as they dive for food close to shore.
- Fish found off the Jersey Shore during January include winter flounder, whiting, blackfish and striped bass.
- When the days first get longer; owls are establishing territory and foxes are mating.
- Aquatic invertebrates generally spend the winter quietly as eggs or cysts.
- As ice forms on lakes and ponds, it limits the amount of light and dissolved oxygen causing most aquatic life in the water to settle at the bottom.
Some cool facts about January:
- January 22 is the average start of the January thaw.
- January is the coldest month of the winter with an average temperature of 31.6° F. The ground freezes; cranberry bogs and freshwater pond usually freeze; and bays and sounds sometimes freeze.
- January is a relatively dry month due to the predominance of northwest winds that flow from the dry interior land mass of the continent.
- Snowfall in January averages about 5" along the Jersey Shore.
- Days grow longer with an additional 50 minutes of daylight by month's end.
- The January's full moon is called a "Wolf Moon" by some Indian Nations because wolves were more likely to forage for food near their villages and campsites during this cold, dark time of year.

ONLY poems listed here or in the current printed anthology are eligible for the 2018-2019 competition.
O what can ail thee, knight-at-arms,
Alone and palely loitering?
The sedge has withered from the lake, ...
Stand on the highest pavement of the stair—
Lean on a garden urn—
Weave, weave the sunlight in your hair— ...
I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee,...
It was a picture I had after the war.
A bombed English church. I was too young
to know the word English or war,...
Swear by the olive in the God-kissed land—
There is no sugar in the promised land.
I don't know how it happened, but I fell—
and I was immense, one dislocated arm
wedged between two buildings. I felt some ribs ...
Reading in the paper a summary
of a five-year psychological study
that shows those perceived as most beautiful...
'O Jesus Christ! I'm hit,' he said; and died.
Whether he vainly cursed or prayed indeed,
The Bullets chirped—In vain, vain, vain! ...
"I am playing my oldest tunes," declared she,
"All the old tunes I know,—
Those I learnt ever so long ago."...
Dumped wet and momentary on a dull ground
that's been clear but clearly sleeping, for days.
Last snow melts as it falls, piles up slush, runs in first light...

The first really good book about Chinese tea I found is called Zhongguo Chapu and was published in 2007. It is almost 300 pages long and describes about 200 kinds of tea. The problem is I do not know a word of Chinese, and the machine translations I tested is very tiresome. If someone wants to help us to translate selected parts you are welcome to contact...Read More
The best book on China's history of tea I read is actually the Swedish. It translates into "tea art" and was written by Mette Siggstedt 1996 in connection with a very nice exhibition on tea in the East Asian Museum in Stockholm. The book is small, black, fairly insignificant and not so easy to read but who cares when it summarizes China's entire history of tea in 127 pages. The author is no expert on tea but she has access to an outstanding amount of Chinese literature and also has an excellent ability to summarize and draw conclusions. She is also critical and perceptive when it comes to the Chinese and European literary sources. The fact that she has a very good knowledge of Chinese history and culture course contributes to the book's qualities. What is objectionable is the lack of maps and that it requires fairly extensive knowledge of China's...Read More
This is a really nice Swedish tea book that was published a few years ago (2006). The book is written by food writer Petter Bjerke and to some extent Vernon Mauris who runs the store "The Tea Centre of Stockholm". The book should be seen as an introduction to good tea and as such it makes a good job. It is both well written, beautiful and entertaining and takes up most of the teas that you can buy in a good Swedish tea shop. It also takes up part of tea culture in China and Japan and because Petter's food writer, there is a recurring theme of how the tea and food work together. A little sadder with the book is that it does not come with any new information. All it does is to summarize the knowledge that already exists in so many other places, in books, on websites and in tea shops. It looks indeed like Petter traveled to a couple of the classic tea areas but it would have been much more interesting if the author had actually worked with tea. Apart from this, I can recommend the book, especially as it only costs half as much as just a few years...Read More
When this book came almost 25 years ago, it quickly became a reference work and I have even seen Chinese tea merchants use. The first half is perhaps not so remarkable, it takes up the history of tea culture and some mandatory things like chemistry, ceramics and health effects. The book's strength is the last 60 pages that take up no less than 50 different more or less famous Chinese teas. After 25 year much of the information is outdated. The China Tea Import and Export Corporation lost its role, but if you ignore this, it is still one of the best books written about Chinese tea, especially in...Read More
This is a nice little Swedish book about the Swedish tea culture. It is written by Birgitta and Cia Conradson and was puplished in 1994. The book describes in a very personal tea drinking seen in Sweden from the 1700s to the early 1990s.

This is an impressive work about one of the world's best teas, Darjeeling. The book is nearly 600 pages long, was written by Gangadhar Banerjee and Srijeet Banerjee came out in 2007. Unfortunately, the book is hopelessly dull and contains almost no useful information, at least not for a private person. Sure, it contains some of Darjeeling earliest history and some anecdotes about tea personalities but it does not address anything about the tea plantations, on how to make tea or whatever it is that makes it unique. Instead, the list endless amounts of uninteresting sales, wages and comparisons with other tea producing areas. It does not contain a single illustration...Read More

LONDON. The United Kingdom Hydrographic Office has published a revised edition of the ADMIRALTY ENC and ECDIS Maintenance Record (NP133C).
First published in 2014, this publication is designed to help mariners demonstrate compliance with IMO regulations during Port State Control inspections, with easy-to-use checklists and templates to record ECDIS annual performance checks and software maintenance.
For the first time, the record now provides guidance to help bridge crews record and manage cyber risks. This update has been developed in line with guidance published by the International Maritime Organization (IMO), stating that approved safety management systems (SMS) should consider cyber risk management in line with the ISM code before January 2021. NP133C has been revised to help mariners achieve this by providing a checklist to document threats and procedures to mitigate risk to ships.
In February 2017, the IMO also made important clarifications on training requirements for ECDIS, stating that seafarers are not required to take type specific training at designated colleges but that companies are still responsible for ensuring all seafarers employed on their ships are familiarised with ECDIS.
To support this, the revised version NP133C now includes checklists designed to document and evidence that ECDIS familiarisation training has been completed, thus helping to ensure evidence can be provided during Port State Control inspections.
Thomas Mellor, head of OEM support and digital standards at the UKHO, commented: "The first edition of NPC133C was published in 2014 and has quickly become an invaluable asset on the bridge for users of the ADMIRALTY Vector Chart Service (AVCS). Shipping's regulatory landscape is constantly changing and these important revisions to the ENC Maintenance Record reflect that shifting picture. Mariners need to be able to accurately and efficiently follow and record ENC and ECDIS management processes on the bridge. This can make the difference between passing an inspection and being found in breach of regulations, with the significant impact that this can have for the vessel and voyage, including potential detention in port."
"In the wake of the growing cyber-threat to shipping, NPC133C now also provides essential advice on how to mitigate cyber risk through recorded risk assessments in line with the IMO deadline of 1 January 2021 on cyber-security."
UKHO have also updated their popular 'Living with ECDIS' Seminar series to include perspectives on industry initiatives on cyber-security, as well as advice on how owners and operators can ensure that their ships are compliant with upcoming changes to the ISM code.

In amorphous and crystalline forms, a solid drug may be anhydrous or a solvate/hydrate. When a solid form contains a solvent, it is known as a solvate. The presence of residual solvent may affect dramatically the crystalline structure of the solid depending on the type of intermolecular forces that the solvent may have with crystalline solid. When the solvent is water, it is termed a hydrate.
Due to the frequent presence of water in the environment and its use in solvent blendings during the crystallization process, the formation of hydrated drugs is common. Because the water molecule is small and able to form hydrogen bonds, it is easily incorporated into the crystalline lattice of drugs both occupying spaces and stabilizing the structure.

How can I adjust locked transactions?
I have transactions that I need to adjust that are locked.
- Enter a new transaction in the account with the correct information
- Enter a credit which backs out the value of the incorrect locked transaction
- Note: Avalara Support cannot adjust locked transactions.
Note: You can do this in the original period if you would like Avalara to file an amended return, or during the current month if you would like it included in the current returns. Depending on your needs these two transactions would be entered in the Admin Console or in your accounting system directly.

In light of the Newton Connecticut tragedy there are going to be ripped from the headlines variations on this theme. Jodi Picoult did it 19 MINUTES. Anne Rule loves true crime accounts of these big stories. I choose not to do any headline ripping stories of this kind. It is too tragic in real life why rehash the theme.
There are things I just won't write about in a novel. Any kind of abuse toward a child, elder, woman or animal in any great detail; it could be mentioned but I am not going to centre a plot around those subjects. I also don't touch rape or ritual torture or the occult. The media tends to sensationalize these issues so I find it is easy to take the moral high ground and avoid it all together.
So just ask yourselves what kind of stories are you willing to or able to tackle?

Long championed as his generation's Yasujiro Ozu, Japan's Hirokazu Kore-eda (Still Walking, Like Father Like Son) makes grown-up films about flawed families, often centering on how we deal with death and other life changes. He's not an Ozu mimic — he doesn't share the late master's formal rigor — but both directors were/are wise beyond their years. They're both particularly deft at illuminating, with compassion and forgiveness, the more unsavory aspects of human behavior.
These days, Ozu descendants are as rare to encounter as their movies are difficult to sell, but Kore-eda has been plying his trade with the increasing richness that comes with life experience. He's earned the unusual distinction of a bankable humanist.
Just as Ozu's nuanced messages transcended language and culture, Kore-eda's best work has a universality that's nearly peerless. After the Storm, which premiered last year at Cannes, doesn't rank among his top-shelf films, but its central themes and quotidian details alike generate ripples of recognition, reminding us that mid-grade Kore-eda is like most directors' prime cuts.
More monofocused than the director's ensemble dramedies, After the Storm orbits around Ryota (versatile Kore-eda regular Hiroshi Abe), a once-celebrated novelist who's fallen on hard times. His unyielding father recently died, and he's divorced from his wife (Yoko Maki), who maintains custody of their young boy (Taiyo Yoshizawa). Bitter and resentful, Ryota whiles away his life at the racetrack, hemorrhaging the middling income he earns as an unscrupulous private detective. He leeches off his family, including his sister Chinatsu (Satomi Kobayashi), a small business owner, and his mother Yoshiko (an unforgettable Kirin Kiki), a pensioner in a cramped housing complex who yearns for a spacious apartment.
Ryota began his private-eye work, perhaps, as a genuine research project for a sophomore novel that has not materialized. But the phantom book has become his crutch. "I'm just here for my writing," he continues to insist. Ryota is the kind of liar who fibs so much that he's come to believe his fictions, a jaundiced worldview that affects everyone around him like a cancer.
More than once, Ryota reminded me of Bernard Berkman, Jeff Daniels' wayward father in The Squid and the Whale, another prizewinning author shamelessly navigating a separation, a character just as quick to use his offspring as pawns or props. But Ryota doesn't share Bernard's pompousness. He's a more earthen coward, given to more proletarian pursuits, and skillfully embodied by Abe with a hangdog complexion whose handsome features have been long paved over. He always seems a week away from living on the street.
Unlike his protagonist, Kore-eda is no misanthrope, and his tunnels often lead to light, no matter how cavernous they initially seem. He understands that even the ethically bankrupt can bestow constructive lessons, by presenting us a path to avoid. If anything, Kore-eda is too generous toward Ryota. The writer-director finally oversteps only in the film's final third, by reducing the character's complex life choices to unresolved daddy issues, and then resolving them in a way that feels pat and tacked-on. Just as Ozu made us weep because of the matter-of-fact absence of sentiment, so has Kore-eda succeeded in cutting to the emotional cores of troubled families by eschewing the manipulations of lesser filmmakers — at least until the pedestrian closure of After the Storm.
The movie's greatest takeaway, then, is not the protag's cycle toward redemption but the marginal life of his mother. Treatment of the elderly, another central Ozu theme, lingers in the ambient crackle of After the Storm: An overheard news bulletin reports an elderly man gone missing, and Ryota hears of another senior citizen whose corpse was only discovered three weeks after his death.
Could Yoshiko wind up this neglected? That's the more subtly haunting question of After the Storm, and we certainly hope not. Witty, honest and spiritually searching, Yoshiko is a complicated figure who dreams of a more luxurious life while acknowledging its encroaching twilight. She conspires to bring her son's family back together, even when she's smart enough to know better.
And she's a trove of frugal, Old World practices that are instantly recognizable, like the freezing of milk into little cups of makeshift "ice cream." As mother and son attempt to enjoy this dessert, tediously chipping away at the inedible top layer of frozen crud with plastic spoons, both characters seem to momentarily forget their troubles. In a movie perhaps too preoccupied with grand conclusions, this small example of communion is one of this early cinema year's loveliest interludes.
AFTER THE STORM. Director: Hirokazu Kore-eda; Cast: Hiroshi Abe, Yoko Maki, Taiyo Yoshizawa, Kirin Kiki, Satomi Kobayashi; Distributor: Film Movement; Opens Friday at Lake Worth Playhouse and Living Room Theaters at FAU

Nona Gaprindashvili (born 3 May, 1941) is a Georgian chess player, the fifth women's world chess champion (1962-1978), and first female Grandmaster in chess history. Born in Zugdidi, Georgia (then part of the Soviet Union), she was the strongest female player of her generation.
Nona began playing chess at 5. At 12 she started to take part in chess events and started to be coached by Karseladze. At 14 she was the 2nd at Tbilisi championship. The following year became a Georgian women champion and participated in the USSR Championship where she finish 7th. Well placed in the 1960 USSR Championship she got the right to participate in the 1961 Candidates Women Tournament.
In 1961, aged 20, Gaprindashvili won the fourth women's Candidates Tournament, setting up a title match against Russian world champion Elisabeth Bykova. She won the match easily, with a final score of 9-2 (+7−0=4), and went on to defend her title successfully four times: three times against Alla Kushnir (1965: 10/6; 1969: 12/7; 1972: 12/11) and once against fellow Georgian Nana Alexandria (1975: 9–4). She finally lost her crown in 1978 to another Georgian, 17-year-old Maia Chiburdanidze, by a score of 6½–8½ (+2−4=9).
Gaprindashvili played for Soviet Union in the Chess Olympiads of 1963, 1966, 1969, 1972, 1974, 1978, 1980, 1982, 1984, 1986, 1990, and for Georgia in 1992. She was one of the contributing players of the USSR team that dominated the women's Olympiads of the 1980s. She won as many as 25 medals, among which 11 team gold medals and 9 individual gold medals. At the Olympiad of Dubai 1986 she won all the ten games she played.
She was a five times winner of the Women's Soviet Championship: in 1964, 1973, 1981, 1983, and 1985.
During her career Gaprindashvili successfully competed in men's tournaments, winning (amongst others) the Hastings Challengers tournament in 1963/4 and tying for first place at Lone Pine in 1977, earning a grandmaster norm.
In 1978 Gaprindashvili became the first woman to be awarded the Grandmaster title. She was awarded the title after scoring two Grandmaster 'norms' totaling 23 games, the last of which was winning Lone Pine 1977 against a field of 45 players, mostly grandmasters. Although she did not meet the technical requirements for the GM title, which required 24 games, by exceeding the GM 'norm' requirement in Lone Pine, FIDE found her results equivalent to 24 games and made her the first woman Grandmaster. Not until Zsuzsa Polgar did another woman achieve the Grandmaster title through regular tournament play.
Her play is characterized by universal style and high technique of playing endings. Euwe considered Gaprindashvili as a chess player of very wide perspective and her play versatile and bright.
In 2005, at age 64, Nona won the BDO Chess Tournament held in Haarlem, the Netherlands with a score of 6.5/10 and a performance rating of 2510.
In 2009 she won in Condino, Italy the World Senior Championship for women and in 2014 she won the title again in Katerini (Greece).

text: Firms told use of data can provide greater predictability, certaintySeptember 21, 2016|Written By Alex Robinson Every organization in law needs a data strategy, says Daniel Martin Katz.The associate law professor at the Illinois Institute of Technology Chicago-Kent College of Law says law firms can be better predictors of their services if they capture and analyze their data. "We care about data because we want to be able to predict things," Katz told the Emerging Legal Technology Forum presented in partnership by Thomson Reuters and MaRS LegalX in Toronto Tuesday.Doing things differently was top of mind at the conference, where lawyers, startups and legal tech enthusiasts came together to talk about how technology is changing the legal industry. Katz said there can be a huge difference between what a legal process is and what a law firm thinks that process is — and data can help illuminate that gap."As you begin to collect data, you find out there are steps in this process you don't even have reflected in your process," Katz said.Pursuing such strategies will likely have to be done in incremental steps, as partners will likely want to see a return on their investment before fully committing to the process. One step is creating a process map, in which all processes being carried out within a firm are identified, linked and logged.Mapping out such processes can help firms become better predictors of risks, outcomes, how much certain types of litigation will cost and how long certain matters will take.Data can also help in e-discovery and transactional work by predicting relevant documents and contract terms, Katz said.All of this in the end allows firms to better express the value of their services to clients, he said."You can't say how great your services are with no real measure of what you've actually accomplished. It doesn't work," Katz told the audience.The conference also featured a panel discussing legal analytics systems that are mining data both inside and outside of firms. Startups and companies that are mining legal data outside of firms seek to provide accessible statistics to clients based on math and the vast amount of unstructured legal data that exists.Toby Unwin, chief innovation officer at Premonition LLC, said the transparency such services can provide will have a big impact on the legal industry.Premonition is a Florida-based company that mines the data in legal documents in order to rate lawyers based on factors that include outcomes and the length of trials.Unwin noted that lawyers belong to one of few professions where the less efficient you are, the more you get paid. He added this might be a reason that legal tech has not moved forward as fast as other technological sectors have.He said that some firms also bluff about what their success rates are, but services like the ones his company provides can change these things."Every great change will come from transparency," he said.

My littlest monster is in Kindergarten. This week his class was learning about the letter 'Qq'. Adam was eager to tell his class that 'quilt' begins with the letter 'Q' and that his Mommy makes them. I was then asked by his teacher if I had any quilts to share with the class. You would think that the obvious answer would be yes but surprisingly I don't have 1 (not 1!) finished quilt that lives in our house. Shameful, I know. I have made plenty (you can see some of them here) but I have given them all away. My poor children!!
Anyway, I knew I couldn't make a quilt in just a few days (of course, I probably could have finished one of the 7 quilts that I have in progress. oh well) so I decided to make a mini quilt (or mug rug but mug rug doesn't go with 'Q' day).
|Finished size 10"x 7.5"
I based it off this tutorial by Amanda Jean from Crazy Mom Quilts but cut my strips 1.5" (I also used this fabulous tutorial to make Adam's quilt, which STILL isn't finished! I am such a slacker). Perfect size for little hands to pass around. And for fun, I sent one of my quilt tops in so the kiddos could see what all of those seams look like on the back. It will be interesting to hear what all the kids thought of them.
If you have an extra minute I recommend you check out all of the inspiration over at the blogs below.

Hope you have a happy Friday!
