Electrical Equipment Testing in Schools
Schools are usually high traffic areas and ensuring the safety of students, staff and other users is essential. One of the best ways to do this is by conducting frequent testing and tagging of electrical equipment. Equipment testing is the process where all electrical appliances within the institution are inspected for proper functioning to prevent the risk of fire hazards due to defects in appliances. Any faulty equipment is repaired or replaced. After testing, the equipment is tagged as proof that it was tested. A tag usually contains the following information about the electrical equipment: • The date tested • The next date for testing • Unique asset identification • Whether the equipment passed or failed the test • The person who performed the test Which equipment should be tested? In some states, testing and tagging of electrical equipment in schools is compulsory. After the process, the results should be recorded and documented over the life of the appliances. Here are some of the equipment that should be tested and tagged: • Portable outlets and power extensions • All electrical appliances that are usually plugged into a low-voltage power supply • Portable transformers • Flexible cords that are connected to equipment in high-risk areas such as school workshops and laboratories • Equipment that is exposed to conditions that can reduce its lifespan; for example, exposure to heat, humidity, vibrations, dust and chemicals • Portable heavy-duty tools and equipment Hard-wired and fixed equipment that are attached to a wall or other permanent fixtures do not need to be tested either. How often should equipment be tested? Different states in Australia have guidelines specifying the period after which various types of electrical equipment in schools should be tested. You can refer to these standards with the help of the electrician in charge of testing to determine the appropriate time to test each equipment. They can also include the date on the tag after testing. Aside from the statutory requirement, equipment should be tested in the following instances: • After equipment has been repaired or serviced; repairs can create problems with electrical equipment due to occasional mistakes and human error • Second-hand appliances should also be tested before use After testing and tagging, a detailed report should be issued and documented for future testing and tagging procedures. Testing and tagging of electrical equipment in a school is essential to ensure the safety of its users. Hire a qualified testing electrician to ensure that a credible report is issued regarding the condition and safety of electrical equipment in the...read more
4 Actions To Undertake If Your Power Goes Out At Home
Plenty of factors can trigger a power outage. A car accident may snap power lines or a maintenance error at the power company can cause power failure. In other cases, your power may have simply tripped. Irrespective of the cause, the important thing is to stay calm. This guide is designed to help you undertake certain actions if your power goes out at home. Some causes may be simple enough to fix on your own, while others may require the services of an emergency electrician. Establish Whether Other Homes Have Gone Out In Your Neighbourhood The first thing you need to do is to determine whether your home is the only one without electricity. If your house is the only one that has gone out, then locate your fuse box and check for blown fuses and tripped switches. This could probably be the problem. If the whole neighbourhood has gone off, then the source of the problem may be from the power company. Reset Tripped Switches Or Replace Fuses On Fuse Box If the switch has tripped, simply reset it and your electricity should turn back on. If a fuse has blown, then you may need to get an emergency electrician to replace the fuse immediately. It's always best to leave any electrical work to a professional, especially if you're unfamiliar with handling the fuses around your home. If neither of these are the issue, then you may have another problem on your hands. Call Your Local Electricity Company If the problem isn't inside your fuse box, then there may be a problem at your local electricity company. You will find their number on any old power bill, so be sure to call them to see whether the problem is more widespread. If the problem is a maintenance error at the power company, then you may simply need to wait until they can fix it before your power gets restored once again. Inform The Electrical Company Of Downed Power Lines In Your Suburb If there is no problem at the power company, then there could be downed electrical lines in your suburb, which you need to report to them. This can be potentially dangerous, so be sure to stay away from these power lines. You may also need to call the authorities to report this emergency. Keep your pets and children indoors because these downed electrical wires could be lethal. If you can fix a power failure on your own by simply resetting the switches, then go ahead and do so. If not, you will need an emergency electrician or your local power company to inspect and fix the...read more
Professional Tips for Lighting a Beauty Salon
Being a successful salon owner is no easy task. You may well have years of experience with cosmetic techniques such as facials, makeup application, and hair tinting, but if you can't create a salon atmosphere that is appealing, you are unlikely to pull in a lot of dollar. Yes, you will have to invest in appropriate salon furniture and beautiful interior design, but something that is too often overlooked is the lighting within a salon. Salon lighting is especially important because it will light up your salon functionally so your staff can perform the treatments, but it will also set a mood within the salon, which is just as important. Getting these two things to work together is easier said than done, and you'll need to lean on the talents of a skilled lighting designer and electrician to realise your ambitions for your salon. Here are a few things to keep in mind: Warm lighting tone is important. Think about the way you look in a dressing room with stark lighting. You want to run out of the dressing room there and then. Stark lighting that replicates the light of a sunny afternoon simply isn't flattering and it's best to find commercial LED lighting that is warmer in tone. Before you settle on a particular set of bulbs, it's a good idea to educate yourself about the Kelvin scale. To create a warm and cosy atmosphere, opt for bulbs that are below 3000 on this scale. Lighting should render colour accurately. If you are working with colour at all in your salon, with things like hair tinting and colouring or applying makeup, it's beyond important to have lighting that reflects the true colours of the pigments and dyes you are using, as well as the true colour of a person's hair or skin tone. If you have ever applied makeup at home and then discovered you look like a clown when you leave the house, this is more than likely a reflection of your poor lighting rather than your makeup skills. To know whether your LED lights render colour well, you'll need to consult the Colour Rendering Index (CRI). A high CRI number equals better colour rendering. Eliminate shadows. With light, there is always shadow, but you don't want the shadows to fall on your client's face, because this is unflattering. The key to eliminating these shadows is to have a range of lighting sources. You may want to mount wall lighting at each side of a mirror, above a mirror, and you may want to introduce some gentle overhead lighting as well. With more lighting fixtures, extra lights can actually light up the shadows produced by other light sources. Just remember to layer the commercial LED lights gently because you don't want the client to feel like they are under a spotlight on the stage....read more
Warning Signs of Electrical Malfunction in Your Home
When it comes to electrical problems in the home, it is prudent to look out for any signs of malfunction and have the issues addressed posthaste. This is because something that may appear to be a simple fault can easily become exacerbated and compromise your entire electrical system. Here are some of the warning signs of electrical malfunction that would indicate you require the services of a licensed electrician. The Lights in Your Home Keep Flickering If you notice one of the lights in your home is flickering, chances are the problem may lie with the bulb itself. In this instance, you could opt to replace the bulb with a new one to see if this will correct the problem. However, if the flickering continues or it affects multiple lights in your residence, chances are the wiring in your home has sustained a fault. It would be best to hire an electrician to diagnose and remedy the problem to ensure the lights aren't a safety hazard in your home. The Fuses in Your Home Keep Blowing An occasional blown fuse is something that homeowners will have to contend with. However, if you notice that you have to replace your fuses on a frequent basis, then there could be a serious underlying problem with your circuitry. Typically, your fuses will keep blowing on a regular basis if your electrical system is often overloaded. This may also occur if your circuit breaker is malfunctioning so it is unable to correct surges in electricity. An electrician will be able to decide whether you require additional outlets incorporated into your electrical system or if you need to have your circuit breaker replaced. The Outlets in Your Home Cause Minor Electrical Shocks If you experience a slight electrical shock either when plugging in appliances or switching on the lights, chances are there is a short occurring in your electrical system. There are two common causes for this. The first is when the wiring in your electrical system has become frayed, and the second is when the wiring no longer has the appropriate insulation to contain the electricity. Slight electrical shocks may seem like a minor inconvenience, but they pose a serious hazard in the home. Not only could they eventually lead to electrocution, but they could also cause a house fire if not addressed in good time by a qualified electrician. For more tips on how to spot electrical problems, consider contacting a local electrician or visiting the websites of local professionals,...read more
The Benefits of Using Industrial Lighting in your Home
When it comes to furnishing your new home, lighting makes all the difference. With the right placement and bulb-type chosen, lighting can warm up a home and make it more inviting. Lighting also serves different functions in different rooms of the house. For instance, lighting needs to be sharper in the kitchen than any other part of the house to ensure that people can see what they are doing at all times. Dull lighting may lead to unpleasant accidents, especially when an individual is using kitchen appliances. Industrial lights are now an option for homeowners to consider. Made to last while aging slowly, industrial lighting is created with the purpose of standing the test of time while saving energy. Listed below are 4 reasons why industrial lighting is the most beneficial option to have in your home. Lifespan Traditional lighting sources burn out all at once when they have reached their maximum lifespan. However, industrial lighting fades out gradually. Unlike other lighting sources as well, industrial lights are made to last for 90,000 hours. That means that unlike the usual bulbs and lights that have to be changed every-so-often, industrial lights will be able to last for at least 10 years. Maintenance As mentioned above, the life span of using the industrial options eliminates the need for regular bulb changes. Additionally, industrial lights do not get hot, making it unnecessary for them to be wiped clean as dust will be unable to stick them. Immediate On During colder days or seasons, traditional lights need some time to warm up before reaching maximum illumination. Industrial lights, on the other hand, do not require a buffer time and flare up to maximum capacity the moment they are turned on. This saves time during nights and is hassle-free. Higher Light Quality Light has direct stimulating effects on the human body. Lower quality light tends to make people drowsy and inattentive. However, industrial lights produce a brighter light that keeps people sharp and focused. If you have a home-office, installing industrial lights in that room will keep you alert and productive. This is also a useful tip if you have children who need to study more. Installing industrial lighting in their rooms may make it easier for them to finish their homework on time. Conclusively, these benefits come at a cheaper price in the long-run. Industrial lighting is an environmentally-friendly way to keep your house well-lit. Due to their popularity, most electrical contractors offer them as part of their...read more
Digital TV Antenna Installation Guide
The process of installing an antenna for digital televisions can be pretty easy. However, there are a few things that every homeowner need to consider before taking on any installation project for a TV antenna. The location and quality of the signal are some of the factors that hugely impact this decision. Below are a few things you should consider when thinking of installing a digital TV antenna for your home use. Assess the Digital TV Signal Available at Your Location Assessing the availability of digital signal can be fairly simple or complicated. The first thing would be to look at what other households in your neighbourhood are doing. If you find out that most of these houses have small antennas mounted on their roofs and particular types of antennas, it is most likely that similar configurations will work for you. In other areas, for the most part hilly or mountainous landscapes, more work may be required. A perfect place to start is the government's mySwitch website where you can get insights on the digital TV coverage in your location. You are only required to provide your address and a predicted reception quality will be given depending on the terrain and distance from nearby digital TV transmitters. All you will need to do is to purchase a TV antenna with correct band coverage based on the recommendations from the website. Choose the Location and Type of TV Aerial Mount To some extent, the reception quality is responsible for determining the type of mount suitable in an area. Where you place the antenna does not really matter in areas with robust signal strength and good reception quality. However, you will get a better end result when the right location and type of mount are chosen. A rule of thumb would be choosing a location on the same side of the roof as the TV transmitters and placing the antenna higher. For those who have a digital TV signal strength meter, moving around up and down your roof can be helpful in determining the best possible location. Install the Antenna The next step would be to assemble the antenna. When assembling, it is strongly recommended that you follow the instructions provided for your particular antenna. It is important to ensure that the antenna is set to the correct polarisation for your local TV transmitters. For help, contact a professional TV antenna installation company. This way you will be able to have your antenna installed and aligned as best as possible....read more
Attention Future Landlords: Remember To Check Your Electrical Appliances!
Landlord property requirements vary, depending on the state and territory. However, a level of electrical safety is always a necessity. Regardless of where you live, before you lease your property and start accepting new tenants, you must ensure that all of your electrical goods are working correctly and safely. Failure to fix or replace faulty appliances could lead to substantial fines. Minimum Electrical Requirements Whenever you begin a new lease agreement, you should always remove, repair or replace any appliances that don't work; check all of their fuses to ensure they're the correct type and rating; and compile any operating instructions and safety warning notices. Structural electrical requirements include: Any exposed or faulty electrical wiring on the premises must be removed, fixed or replaced before the start of the tenancy agreement. The property must have a light source that illuminates the main entry point of the premises. This light must be operable from the interior. The property must have at least two professionally installed RCDs in order to protect the power points. A signed Electrical Safety Certificate must be issued for each of them. Smoke alarms must be less than 10 years old and meet the Australian Standard 3786-1993. Before tenants move in, smoke alarms must be cleaned, charged and tested. This process must be conducted on an annual basis. Even if the tenant lives in your property for more than one year, this is your responsibility. A compliance certificate must be issued for each smoke alarm, outlining their date of expiry and position. Failure to install and maintain a smoke alarm that abides by the Australian Standard could result in a $500 fine. Carrying Out Electrical Works When tenants move in, it's their responsibility to report any electrical faults directly to you or your agent – they should not fix or replace any electrical goods themselves. However, that doesn't absolve you of responsibility; your duties will continue for the duration of the lease agreement. If any electrical works need to be carried out, you and an engineer may enter the property, but only in the case of an emergency; otherwise, you must give prior notice. Even if you you have the knowledge and skills to fix or replace the faulty goods, you must always hire a licensed commercial electrician, such as one from a company like Combined Electrical Contractors Pty Ltd. Fundamentally, as a landlord you have a duty of care to ensure your property and tenants remain safe and secure....read more
Some Features to Consider for a Home Automation System
Home automation is more popular and more common than ever before; a home automation system will usually include the security features for the home but also controls over the thermostat, entryways, and even the plumbing system. Since they're more affordable than ever, you might consider having such a system installed in your home for a variety of reasons. Note some features you may want to consider including and why they can be beneficial for you. 1. Temperature controls One reason to have an automated system tied into the thermostat and temperature controls is that you can easily adjust the thermostat during the day while you're away. You may want to raise the thermostat as the outside temperature drops, so that your houseplants and pets are warm and secure, but then lower the thermostat once it gets warm again. You can keep your furnace or air conditioner off during the day but then turn it on as you leave the office, so the home is comfortable without your appliances running for hours in an empty house. Having this type of control can mean not wasting energy and can also mean not contributing to neighborhood brownouts, since you can monitor your energy consumption during peak usage hours. 2. Shading Your home's shades can be tied in with the automation system and this too can add to the comfort of your home while you're away. You may want to close the blinds as the sun comes up to avoid having the home become too warm but then open them again in the later afternoon, before you arrive home. Automated shades can also make your home look occupied; a potential thief may see the shades raise and lower at different times and may not realize that the home is empty. 3. Plumbing A home automation system can be connected to faucets in the home, and this can help you to keep pipes from freezing in the wintertime. If the temperature drops unexpectedly while you're away, you can turn on a faucet to a slow trickle and keep the water flowing. If your children are home alone, you can ensure they don't keep the water running absentmindedly, and in turn, save on your water costs. 4. Lighting Having control of your lights from a remote access pad or panel can make it easier for you to ensure that lights are never left on in an unoccupied space. You can turn on lights randomly while traveling so the home looks occupied, or turn on dim lights in areas of your home as the sun sets. This can set a relaxing mood and keep a space safely illuminated without having to get up and turn on or off all the lights in the...read more
Bits & Bytes: How to Better Understand What You Need from Your Data Services
When you are choosing your data service plan to suit your individual needs, how do you know what plan is right for you? Moreover, how do you talk to the professionals to ensure that you are having the proper services wired to your home or office? The fact is, if you don't know the lingo, you might only find out that you've made a mistake when an astronomical bill arrives in your inbox. Or, you might spend months or even years paying for services that you don't need and never use. What You'll Use The first thing you need to do is figure out the services that you will require from your Internet connection. If you don't know, monitor your internet usage for a week to find out. For example: Do you stream a lot of video online? Is reliable email crucial to your organization? Are you building and maintaining your website in-house? Is there a probability that you will need to do these things in the future? All of these questions can indicate that you need a higher speed connection with unlimited access to data. If none of the above questions applies to you, you may want to explore a lower limit plan to avoid tying up funds that you could invest in other aspects of your business. The Tech Talk You'll need to know a few key words to have an intelligent conversation with the professional installing your service. A Bit measures the speed of your connection, and will be displayed whenever you are downloading data from the Internet. If you do a lot of downloading and need it done quickly, ask the professional installing your system if there are speed upgrades available. Expressed as a lowercase b, other units include kilobits (Kb) and megabits (Mb). A Byte measures the actual data that is transferred along your connection. This is what actually affects your data cap if your plan has one, so have an in-depth talk about your Byte usage with your carrier prior to selecting your services. Expressed as an uppercase B, other units include kilobytes (KB) and megabytes (MB). Any time you download OR upload something, exchanging data between the internet and your hardware, you are taking a chunk out of your BYTES. This is, ultimately, where most consumers see an unexpected hike in their bill. Make sure that you have a thorough understanding of the bytes you need, and you can be sure data service providers will wire in the appropriate system for you. Learn more about your options by contacting companies like Austec...read more
Home Update and Installation Jobs That Are Better Left to an Electrician
It may not be necessary to call an electrician every time you buy a new lamp or electronic piece you might hook up to your entertainment centre, but there are some updates and installations that are often better left to such a professional. This is because connecting certain electrical devices can often be more complicated than you may realize. Note a few times when you want to call for an electrician for updates and installations in your home. 1. Installing a new ceiling fan Installing a new ceiling fan can be more difficult than you realize, as you need to connect the bare wires from the fan to the wires in your ceiling. This needs to be done properly, with the right caps on the wires, so that the weight of the fan doesn't pull on the wires and separate them. It's also good to have a professional do this for you since a new fan may need more power than older wiring can support. An electrician can test the wattage and visually inspect the wiring to note if it's in good condition and right for a new fan and light fixture. 2. Installing large components in a home theatre You can bring home a new DVD player and plug this into your television without a problem, but if you're installing large components or are setting up a new home theatre, call an electrician. Like a new ceiling fan, your home's wiring may not be able to support all the power that a new flat-screen TV, Internet modem, video game player and all these other components will need. You may actually need a new circuit installed in your home to support the entertainment centre itself. An electrician can also ensure that surge protectors are installed to protect these devices. 3. Upgraded kitchen appliances Today's kitchen appliances often offer a large number of functions; a refrigerator may automatically adjust its own temperature and a dishwasher may fill water automatically according to the load it senses. All these functions may require more electrical power to operate. If you were to bring home a new, upgraded refrigerator and just plug it in, you may see it blow the circuit often or suffer brownouts. If your new appliances are upgraded in any way or offer these updated features, call an electrician to test the wiring before bringing them home. If necessary, he or she may want to rewire the circuits in your kitchen. They may also upgrade the wiring to ensure that your kitchen gets the power it...read more

Bad Art
I set off a stink bomb
At the art opening of bad art.
It was funny how everyone started
Looking around as if they
Would somehow be able to see the smell.
People began fanning their faces
With their programs and an Asian
Woman actually held her nose.
When they discovered I was the culprit
They roughly escorted me out
Of the gallery and the owner told me what I
Did was adolescent and stupid.
I said the smell was only bad
In his subjective mind – who's to say what's
A good smell and what's a bad smell? But
He had already gone
Back inside to help ...
The Peace Train
You can't rely on the peace train,
always jumping the tracks
or taking the wrong one
stopping at the wrong stations
and bypassing the right ones
always arriving late or not at all.
Well, enough of that banal analogy.
Even Cat Stevens is off that jag now,

A university has obtained an injunction banning its students from protesting on campus for six months after two days of unrest led to 41 arrests.
The University of London said the injunction was the "last straw" to stem what it said had been "a campaign of aggression and intimidation".
Students at the university had staged a sit-in - in part to protest at losing their facilities and in part to protest at what they consider to be moves across the country to "privatise" university support services.
The university says its students do not need an umbrella students' union for the entire university as each college has its own.
Watch: Students 'punched and dragged to the ground by their hair' as police break up demonstration
Violent clashes began on Wednesday between police and students after students had occupied part of the university's headquarters.
Video footage shown on BBC regional TV news appeared to show one student falling to the ground after being pushed in the face by a police. Students claimed he had been punched.
Protesters then barricaded the vice-chancellor's and other offices, claiming that peaceful demonstrations had had little effect.
As a result, 36 students were arrested on Thursday - with two accused of assaulting the police and the rest for breach of the peace or affray as scuffles broke out between the two sides.
The protest was one of a number organised by students during the past week. At Sussex University in Brighton, where catering facilities are being sourced out to a private contractor, five students are facing disciplinary action, accused of being involved in organising "repeated serious disruption" through occupations. The five have been suspended from campus and excluded from their courses.
The University of London injunction states that "students have no right to conduct a 'sit-in' or take possession of any areas of the campus. It was granted on Thursday and covers the university's headquarters at Senate House, the University of London Union offices, the Warberg Institute, Brunei Gallery and main buildings of neighbouring Birkbeck College and the School of Oriental and African Studies.
It adds that the students' protest "has involved senior members of the university staff, including the Vice-Chancellor, being prevented from leaving their offices".
"There has therefore been both a serious incursion upon university property and a serious interference with liberty and freedom of senior university personnel."
A spokesman for the university added: "We regard the injunction as a regrettable but necessary step to prevent further occupations of Senate House and other university buildings in Bloomsbury.
"Wednesday's incursion was the last straw in a series of aggressive and intimidatory acts by student protesters over the past year which have seen our staff threatened, abused and in some cases injured."
Speaking after the Wednesday protest had led to the video depicting a student shoved to the ground by the police and the disciplinary action against the Sussex students, Rachel Wenstone, vice-president of the NUS, said: "We were absolutely appalled by the handling of student protesters we have seen in both Sussex and London in recent days.
"Peaceful protest and occupation is part of the history of the student movement and one we are very proud of. They are legitimate tactics, enshrined in our right to protest and are available to students when there is no other way to get their voices heard."
A statement from the Metropolitan Police said three officers had suffered minor injuries during the clashes on Thursday when between 200 and 300 people had gathered to protest in Malet Street.
"Some of the group were covering their faces, others carrying home made shields," it added.
On the previous day, it said a 25-year-old man had been charged with assault following the sit-in, a 20-year-old man was arrested for obstructing police and three other men bailed to return in the New Year on charges of causing danger to users of the highway.

Taiwan Relations Act
|Long title
|To help maintain peace, security, and stability in the Western Pacific and to promote the foreign policy of the United States by authorizing the continuation of commercial, cultural, and other relations between the people of the United States and the people on Taiwan, and for other purposes.
|Acronyms (colloquial)
|Enacted by
|the 96th United States Congress
|Public law
|Pub.L. 96–8
|Statutes at Large
|93 Stat. 14
|Legislative history
The Taiwan Relations Act (TRA; Pub.L. 96–8, 93 Stat. 14, enacted April 10, 1979; H
In 1978, China regarded itself as in a "united front" with the U.S., Japan, and western Europe against the Soviets and thus established diplomatic relations with the United States in 1979, supported American operations in Communist Afghanistan, and leveled a punitive expedition against Vietnam, America's main antagonist in Southeast Asia. In exchange, the United States abrogated its mutual defense treaty with the Republic of China (ROC) on Taiwan.
The ROC government mobilized its ethnic lobby in the United States to agitate Congress for the swift passage of an American security guarantee for the island. Taiwan could appeal to members of Congress on many fronts -- anti-communist China sentiment, a shared wartime history with the ROC, Beijing's human rights violations and its curtailment of religious freedoms, etc.[1][2]
Senator Barry Goldwater and other members of the United States Congress challenged the right of President Jimmy Carter to unilaterally nullify the Sino-American Mutual Defense Treaty, which the United States had signed with the ROC in December 1954 and was ratified by the U.S. Senate in February 1955. Goldwater and his co-filers of the Supreme Court case Goldwater v. Carter argued that the President required Senate approval to take such an action of termination, under Article II, Section II of the U.S. Constitution, and that, by not doing so, President Carter had acted beyond the powers of his office.[3]
The Act was passed by both chambers of the United States Congress and signed by President Jimmy Carter in 1979 after the breaking of relations between the United States and Taiwan. Congress rejected the State Department's proposed draft and replaced it with language that has remained in effect since 1979. The Carter Administration signed the Taiwan Relations Act to maintain commercial, cultural, and other relations through the unofficial relations in the form of a nonprofit corporation incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia—the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT)−without official government representation and without formal diplomatic relations.[4]
Definition of Taiwan[edit]
The act does not recognize the terminology of 'Republic of China' after 1 January 1979, but uses the terminology of "governing authorities on Taiwan". Geographically speaking and following the similar content in the earlier defense treaty from 1955, it defines the term "Taiwan" to include, as the context may require, the islands of Taiwan (the main Island) and Penghu.
Of the other islands or archipelagos under the control of Taiwan's governing authorities, Jinmen, the Matsus, the Wuqiu Islands, the Pratas and Taiping Island are left outside the definition of Taiwan. Also any area claimed by the authorities, but not under their control, is without mention.
De facto diplomatic relations[edit]
The act authorizes de facto diplomatic relations with the governing authorities by giving special powers to the AIT to the level that it is the de facto embassy, and states that any international agreements made between the ROC and U.S. before 1979 are still valid unless otherwise terminated. One agreement that was unilaterally terminated by President Jimmy Carter upon the establishment of relations with the PRC was the Sino-American Mutual Defense Treaty.
The act provides for Taiwan to be treated under U.S. laws the same as "foreign countries, nations, states, governments, or similar entities". The act provides that for most practical purposes of the U.S. government, the absence of diplomatic relations and recognition will have no effect.[5]
Military provisions[edit]
The Taiwan Relations Act potentially requires the U.S. to intervene militarily if the PRC attacks or invades Taiwan. The act states that "the United States will make available to Taiwan such defense articles and defense services in such quantity as may be necessary to enable Taiwan to maintain a sufficient self-defense capabilities". However, the decision about the nature and quantity of defense services that America will provide to Taiwan is to be determined by the President and Congress. America's policy has been called "strategic ambiguity" and it is designed to dissuade Taiwan from a unilateral declaration of independence, and to dissuade the PRC from unilaterally unifying Taiwan with the PRC.
The act further stipulates that the United States will "consider any effort to determine the future of Taiwan by other than peaceful means, including by boycotts or embargoes, a threat to the peace and security of the Western Pacific area and of grave concern to the United States".
This act also requires the United States "to provide Taiwan with arms of a defensive character", and "to maintain the capacity of the United States to resist any resort to force or other forms of coercion that would jeopardize the security, or the social or economic system, of the people on Taiwan." Successive U.S. administrations have sold arms to Taiwan in compliance with the Taiwan Relations Act despite demands from the PRC that the U.S. follow the legally non-binding Three Joint Communiques and the U.S. government's proclaimed One-China policy (which differs from the PRC's so-called one-China principle).
Reaction and reaffirmation[edit]
The PRC aligned itself with the Third World countries rather than with the United States or the Soviet Union, engaging itself in various movements such as nuclear non-proliferation that would allow it to critique the superpowers.[1] In the August 17th communique of 1982, the United States agreed to reduce arms sales to Taiwan. However, it also declared that it would not formally recognize PRC's sovereignty over Taiwan, as part of the Six Assurances offered to Taipei in 1982.
In the late 1990s, the United States Congress passed a non-binding resolution stating that relations between Taiwan and the United States will be honored through the TRA first. This resolution, which puts greater weight on the TRA's value over that of the three communiques, was signed by President Bill Clinton as well.[6][7] Both chambers of Congress have reaffirmed the importance of the Taiwan Relations Act repeatedly.[8] A July 2007 Congressional Research Service Report confirmed that U.S. policy has not recognized the PRC's sovereignty over Taiwan.[9] The PRC continues to view the Taiwan Relations Act as "an unwarranted intrusion by the United States into the internal affairs of China".[10] The United States continued supplying Taiwan with armaments and China continued to protest.[11]
On May 19, 2016, one day before Tsai Ing-wen assumed the democratically elected presidency of the Republic of China, U.S. Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL), a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and Senate Select Committee on Intelligence and Bob Menendez (D-NJ), former chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and co-chair of the Senate Taiwan Caucus, introduced a concurrent resolution reaffirming the Taiwan Relations Act and the "Six Assurances" as cornerstones of United States–Taiwan relations.[12][13][14]
The 2016 Republican National Convention in the Republican Party Platform states "Our relations will continue to be based upon the provisions of the Taiwan Relations Act, and we affirm the Six Assurances given to Taiwan in 1982 by President Reagan. We oppose any unilateral steps by either side to alter the status quo in the Taiwan Straits on the principle that all issues regarding the island's future must be resolved peacefully, through dialogue, and be agreeable to the people of Taiwan. If China were to violate those principles, the United States, in accord with the Taiwan Relations Act, will help Taiwan defend itself... As a loyal friend of America, Taiwan has merited our strong support, including free trade agreement status, the timely sale of defensive arms including technology to build diesel submarines..."[15]

The point is not obscure. While it may seem obvious , Derrick is not correct. By its nature, it is only necessary for a religion to be "exist" before it can influence a society. The context of its influence is then determined, probably, by socioeconomic factors. Perhaps Derrick may wish to clarify what he means by "enable". We see suppression of healthy discussion on muslim integration within our society yet Australia is not a muslim country and the people who actively suppress discussion are also non-muslim
Another mechanism is at play.
The reason that sharia law has been implemented in the NW provinces is basically due to the political nature of islam and the ease at which it can be abused. The thinking of a weak Pakistani government also needs to be factored in, and this is related to local politics which cannot be separated from islam. The statement that sharia will not pass in Australia is incorrect if we end up with a muslim majority. The statement that we will never accept a scientologist as PM is also incorrect - given sufficient media support it seems anything is possible.

The first of these commands, perhaps more than any other in the entire book of Revelation, sums up the book's message: John wants his readers to make a clean break with the Roman Empire and everything it represents. He echoes the sentiments of the Jewish prophets about ancient Babylon (Jer 50:8; 51:6, 9, 45; compare Is 48:20; 52:11) and those of the apostle Paul about Graeco-Roman religion generally: "`Therefore come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you. I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty'" (2 Cor 6:17-18).
What is surprising about the oracle as a whole is that most of it is unlike the beginning and the ending. It has more to do with the lost splendor of Babylon than with the obligations of the people of God. To be sure, there are four more imperatives addressed to Christian believers, all amounting to much the same thing: Give back to her [Babylon] as she has given; pay her back double for what she has done. Mix her a double portion from her own cup (v. 6). Give her as much torture and grief as the glory and luxury she gave herself (v. 7). These commands are rhetorical and are not to be taken literally. They refer to what God will do to ungodly Rome, not to what Christians must do. When taken literally, they violate the unambiguous teaching of Jesus: "Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you" (Lk 6:27-28); of Peter: "Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing" (1 Pet 3:9); and of Paul: "Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse" (Rom 12:14) and "Do not repay anyone evil for evil" (Rom 12:17).
In what sense can a voice from heaven in the book of Revelation command Christians to fly in the face of such teaching by taking double vengeance against fallen Babylon? The only possible answer is Paul's answer: "Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath. . . . On the contrary; `If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.' Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good" (Rom 12:19-21; compare Prov 25:21-22).
In Revelation Christians "heap burning coals" on Babylon's head or pay her back double for what she has done precisely by nonretaliation, in obedience to the commands of Jesus, Peter and Paul, leaving room for God's wrath to accomplish its terrible purpose. For God's people, the oracle of 13:10 is still in effect: "If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity he will go. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, with the sword he will be killed. This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of the saints." The paradox here is that the saints are able to participate in the judgment against Rome precisely by not taking up the sword against her. Like the slain Lamb (5:6), they are victors only because, and only to the extent that, they are victims.
Yet the oracle is not primarily about the people of God or their responsibilities, even though it is addressed to them. Its more conspicuous purpose is to mourn (and ironically celebrate) Rome's impending downfall, setting forth in great detail the glory from which she will soon fall. This purpose is carried out in high rhetorical style, putting words into the mouth of Babylon herself (v. 7) and into the moutes of the kings of the earth (vv. 9-10), the merchants of the earth (vv. 11-17) and every sea captain, and all who travel by ship, the sailors, and all who earn their living from the sea (vv. 17-19).
As for Babylon, her judgment is in proportion to her own pretentiousness and self-sufficiency. Her words, spoken in her heart, are the only words attributed to her in all of John's visions: I sit as queen; I am not a widow, and I will never mourn (v. 7). Babylon is like the Christian congregation at Laodicea that said, "I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing" (3:17). But God hates pretense, Christian or secular, above all else. The Laodiceans were pronounced "wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked," while "Queen" Babylon's plagues will overtake her in a single day—death, mourning and famine. She will be consumed by fire, for mighty is the Lord God who judges her (v. 8). With this death sentence, the voice from heaven reinforces the prophecy that the ten horns and the beast would humiliate the prostitute and destroy her with fire. This judgment would be the sovereign work of God (see 17:16-17).

Lucy Hill: [conversation at dinner table] Industrial competition in a free-market economy is what built this country.
Ted Mitchell: No, robber barons built this country, and they did it from the blood of working folks. Hell, you steal somebody's car, you get thrown in jail, you steal somebody's life savings, you get to be a CEO.
Lucy Hill: I'm planning on being a CEO.
Ted Mitchell: Well, Blanche, you better count the silverware before she leaves, then.
Lucy Hill: Oh, don't bother, I'm leaving now.
Ted Mitchell: Not if I leave first.

Marrow Controversy And Seceder Tradition, The
Full Product Description
After the Reformation, the Marrow Controversy of the eighteenth century is noted as one of the most significant and defining events in the Scottish church. However, until now, there has not been a serious analysis of the theology of the Marrow Men as it relates to churches in Scotland during the aftermath of the controversy. In this important study, William vanDoodewaard identifies characteristic understandings of Marrow theology on the atonement, saving faith, and the free offer of the gospel and traces them out in the theology of the Seceder tradition. In doing so, he presents substantial evidence for the continuity of Marrow theology in the Associate Presbytery and Associate Synod in Scotland during the eighteenth century. He ably demonstrates that while Marrow theology was not the primary cause of the Secession churches, the Seceders were aware of the significance of Marrow theology and consciously made it an integral part of their churches.
Marrow Controversy And Seceder Tradition, The by Vandoodewaard, William was published by Reformation Heritage Books in November 2011. The ISBN for Marrow Controversy And Seceder Tradition, The is 9781601781499.

Additional Info
Manufacturer Part Number (MPN): 4109
Personnel: Lisa Hartman (background vocals); Art Munson, Lee Ritenour , Ben Benay (guitar); Nino Tempo (saxophone); Clarence MacDonald, Tom Hensley, David Foster (keyboards); Brad Burg (marimba, bells); Earl Palmer , Ed Greene, Mike Baird (drums); Jeff Barry (percussion); Dene Hofheinz, Polly Cutter, Maxine Willard, Julia Tillman (background vocals).
The future wife of country singer Clint Black recorded this debut on Kirshner/CBS when she was only 19 years of age. Produced by Jeff Barry a year before he would work on Tommy James' Midnight Rider album, there's an impressive cast of notables providing backup: mega producer David Foster on keyboards, Nino Tempo on saxophone, Lee Ritenour on guitar, with engineering by Earle Mankey, just to name a few. Jeff Barry contributes one original and three co-writes; the most notable, "He Ain't You," was covered by Lynn Anderson and appears on her anthology, The Columbia Years. Barry wrote the tune along with the singer and the team of Dene Hofheinz and Brad Burg, who composed a good majority of this self-titled Lisa Hartman project. The material is good to very good, an interesting mix of adult contemporary bordering on country. "So Glad I Found You" could be a follow-up to Cyndi Grecco's theme to Lavern & Shirley, "Making Our Dreams Come True," released the same year; that trademark '70s sound is there with Nino Tempo's wonderful sax. A solid cover would have given the disc some personality -- maybe a remake of Nino Tempo and April Steven's "Deep Purple" (too late, Donny & Marie Osmond hit with it in January of the year this album was released), or maybe revising another teen star's music -- Patty Duke's "Don't Just Stand There" was familiar enough to maybe pique the interest of radio programmers. Jeff Barry and Dene Hofheinz provide a nice composition in "Picking up the Pieces," and the production is first-rate -- that song and "Kentucky Rainbows" are two of the highlights on an album which is very listenable. Lisa Hartman would play Neely O'Hara in the 1981 TV remake of 1967's theatrical release, Valley of the Dolls. The movie version featured Patty Duke as Neely O'Hara. Both women released record albums, but Hartman has the better voice; she just doesn't get a Jeff Barry/Ellie Greenwich title, which could have brought this fine music to a mass audience. This same year had engineer Earle Mankey co-producing the fabulous Mondo Deco album for the Quick. It would have been great to have Lisa Hartman duet with Quick singer Danny Wilde on the Beatles' "It Won't Be Long," which leads off Mondo Deco. Now that would have given a boost to both acts. As it is, this album is light years ahead of Patty Duke's TV's Teen Star as well as Duke's Songs From Valley of the Dolls, but boy did Jeff Barry and crew ever miss the mark. This smart collection could have been so very huge had they just given Lisa Hartman a hit song to sing on. ~ Joe Viglione
