I broke up with my obsession yesterday. We parted on friendly terms. I thought my infatuation with Edward Norton would go on forever, however it lasted less than two weeks. After stalking him on twitter --> his tweets were really boring and didn't satisfy me at all, staring at his pictures, watching all of his movies (even the sucky ones like Death to Smoochy), and posting a really silly blogpost about him, my obsession turned into indifference. It was my first crazy celeb crush and hopefully my last. And such a relief it is. Now I can concentrate back on my plan --> taking over the world. Unfortunately my plan won't work for another thousands years.
So, am putting Edward Norton into my secret book --> The Great Book Of Obsession (the things I obsess and dream about) by Anonymous.
It has a long lists of things Anonymous had loved and ditched over the years. The cover page also has a warning: Highly contagious. You might want to obsess yourself. If you have found it then I beg you not to read it, it will only waste your time. By the way page 107504 has the exact thing I warned you about.
Current maddening obsessions: Peanuts. Inheritance cycle. Internet. Procrastination.
So, who went to Karachi International Bookfair? Anyone? ANYONE? I went twice, spent all my savings on just 9 books and didn't even feel satisfied. I wanted to spend the whole day there browsing and buying books if my parents had let me. I have decided I absolutely love bookfairs. Even KIBF with its snobbish highly priced load of books. Even in school when most of the kids couldn't care less, the yearly bookfair and library time were few of the things I really looked forward to (the others being: lunch break and morning presentations).
So.. I'll blog-walk for a while. I miss stalking your awesome blogs, guys. This 3 months long study-leave is not going well with me. Cannot study, cannot have fun. Sick.
May the stars watch over you. <-- a symptom of obsession with Inheritance cycle.

1:05 p.m.
A casting employee who was fired from the company he worked for in 2008 for urging women in coaching sessions to disrobe for him has now been fired from the job he had held the past two years at another casting agency.
FILE - In this Jan. 8, 2017, file photo, Harvey Weinstein arrives at The Weinstein Company and Netflix Golden Globes afterparty in Beverly Hills, Calif. The sexual harassment and assault allegations against Weinstein that rocked Hollywood and sparked a flurry of allegations in other American industries, as well as the political arena, are reaching far beyond U.S. borders. (Photo by Chris Pizzello/Invision/AP, File)
Nancy Nayor of Nancy Nayor Casting says Andy Henry no longer works for her firm after he recently told her about the incidents. At the time, he was working on the "CSI" series.
Five women recently came forward with their accusations. They told The Hollywood Reporter, which first reported the story, they had felt preyed upon by Henry.
Nayor says she felt "completely shocked" to hear Henry's admissions. She said he was a "very respectful casting professional" while at her firm, but that she insists on a "safe environment" in her office, and no longer feels comfortable with Henry working for her.
Henry did not respond to a request for comment.

Harvey Weinstein has been stripped of an honorary degree from the University of Buffalo.
Trustees from the State University of New York and the SUNY chancellor on Wednesday revoked the degree granted to Weinstein in 2001. He was an English major at the University at Buffalo from 1969-1973.
In a statement, the University at Buffalo says Weinstein's alleged conduct is "inconsistent" with the values and policies of the university and "contradicts the spirit of the honorary degree" and "undermines the accomplishments" that were cited to bolster the awarding of the degree.
The university also says that while Weinstein never made a personal gift to the university, Disney, on behalf of Miramax, the company previously run in part by Weinstein, gave a total of $22,750 to support a media study scholarship at the university.
Harvard University previously decided to revoke the W.E.B. Du Bois Medal it gave to Weinstein in light of the allegations of sexual abuse against the movie mogul.

Crews tells host Michael Strahan that he "never felt more emasculated" than when a powerful Hollywood agent groped him at a party last year and that the sexual harassment allegations against Harvey Weinstein triggered an episode of post-traumatic stress.
Crews confirmed that he recently filed a police report against a top agent at William Morris Endeavor. A message seeking comment from the agency was not immediately returned Wednesday.
The star of TV's "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" says he felt empowered to share his experience after so many women came forward with allegations against Weinstein.

Production is set to begin this month on a series about sexual harassment in the film industry.
The Workshop production company says its eight-part documentary series will be called "Shame: The Story of Sexual Harassment in Hollywood."
The company describes the project as an outgrowth of the escalating Hollywood sex scandals now gripping the nation.
It promises to explore issues starting with the "casting couch mentality" that dates back to the days of silent films. It will stretch from the disgrace of "Fatty" Arbuckle nearly a century ago to modern-day offenders like Bill Cosby and Harvey Weinstein, shining a light on how actors, directors and producers have routinely used their power to engage in unsolicited, abusive behavior.
No TV outlet is yet attached to the series.
9:55 a.m.
A newly released police report details allegations that actor Tom Sizemore groped an 11-year-old girl at a Utah photo shoot in 2003.
The documents released Wednesday say the child actor told police Sizemore kissed and groped her as they posed for pictures for the movie eventually titled "Born Killers."
The report says a woman responsible for children on set told police she didn't witness inappropriate touching.
Utah prosecutors declined to file charges, citing witness and evidence problems.
A production company lawyer later told police Sizemore had been fired and was suing.
Sizemore's agent Stephen Rice did not immediately return messages seeking comment.
Sizemore's career has included roles in "Saving Private Ryan" and "Black Hawk Down," but he's also been dogged by drug abuse and domestic violence arrests.
9:45 a.m.
An executive at Penguin Random House is facing allegations of sexual harassment.
In a Twitter thread posted Monday, poet Charlyne Yi alleged that executive art director Giuseppe Castellano repeatedly suggested they go to her hotel room and told her that his wife wouldn't mind if they had an affair. She wrote that they originally met at a bar to discuss a book project and that he had disparaged men who preyed upon women.
Penguin Random House tweeted in response that it took the allegations "extremely seriously" and was investigating. A Penguin spokeswoman confirmed Wednesday to The Associated Press that the tweet was the company's response to her. Castellano was not immediately available for comment.
8:45 a.m.
An unnamed aspiring actress has filed a proposed class action lawsuit against Harvey Weinstein and his former company in an attempt to hold them financially responsible for the producer's alleged sexual harassment and assault.
The lawsuit filed Wednesday in a Los Angeles federal court does not name the woman, or give a date when she alleges Weinstein sexually harassed her. The lawsuit references the conduct taking place in a building occupied by Miramax, which was sold to the Walt Disney Co. in 1993.
It includes detailed summaries of press accounts of Weinstein's harassment, and accuses Weinstein and his former companies, Miramax and The Weinstein Co., of enabling the producer's "casting couch" behavior.
There was no immediate comment from representatives for Weinstein and his former company, The Weinstein Co.

Kate's lamps do much more then illuminating the room. They create a visual focal point that you are drawn to. Kate's lamps are disco and cozy and they play with light and shadow in a way that transforms any house into a home and makes it complete. I bought mine last year four our lounge and I am so happy. It is one of the most beautiful items I own and the day ends well when I can enjoy it in Kate's sparkles of light.
Ulrike, Leamington Spa, UK
Just finished refurbing the house and was looking for a unique floor lamp. Kate's lamp fits the bill completely - lots of colour options, great value for money (remember they're handmade) and of course unique. After playing with a number of different bulbs the lamp leaves a glow of speckles across the walls and ceiling. The lamp looks good both in the day and at night and people always pass comment.
Peter, Grimsby, UK
I fell in love with Kate's unique lampshades and I couldn't resist getting one for our lounge.
Virtually all our guests always ask where we got it from and are fascinated by it as its such a striking yet subtle piece.
It's more than a lampshade, it's a piece of furniture.
I wish I could have Kate's shades in every room in the house!
Mandy - Braunston, UK
Kate, thank you so much for my amazing lampshade. I am so delighted with it! Your attention to detail and particularly my specific Pantone brief really has created a beautiful and original piece of 'lampshade Art'
I will certainly be in touch to engage further commissions
George, Birmingham, UK
What a beautiful and highly original lamp. It lights up our living room with a soft speckled orange glow. Just beautiful!
* * * * *
Karen, Abu Dhabi
We've had two light shades off Katie now. We couldn't be happier with them. We have a large light shade and a floor standing lamp. We love the fact that they are bespoke and we were able to pick the size and colour to suite the rooms we chose them for. They literally change the dynamics of the room with the coloured shards of light spraying out from the shades. People always ask where we got them from. We highly recommended Katie for these bespoke light shades.
Stef, Chapter Clothing, Leamington Spa, UK
Thrilled with my lampshades, I've just renovated my house and these gorgeous shades add a contemporary feel. I picked an oversized shade for my sitting room and worried that it would be too big but it looks stunning. Lots of admiring comments and interest from friends as they are so different. I love the fact they are handcrafted, very happy with them.
Gill Green, Warwick, UK

U.S. online shoppers are increasingly comfortable buying from international merchants and they are finding those merchants more often on U.S.-based marketplace sites, according to a new report. Global shipper UPS and comScore found that 97 percent of "avid" online shoppers (consumers who made at least two online purchases in a three-month period) bought something on an online marketplace, up from 81 percent in 2017. And, nearly half of those polled (47 percent) had made a purchase from an international retailer. Of those, price (43 percent) and the desire for unique products not available from U.S. retailers (36 percent) were their top reasons for seeking out international sellers.
"The lines that separate domestic and international retailers continue to disappear," said Alan Gershenhorn, chief commercial officer for UPS. "Retailers are now competing across the globe. In order to win, retailers can distinguish themselves by providing value through personalized experiences."
Thirty-eight percent of avid online shoppers said they began their product search at marketplaces—more than any other channel. Better prices tops the list of reasons these consumers choose marketplaces (65 percent) followed by more free and discounted shipping options (55 percent).

A Little Background
I have been up to your neck in Internet Marketing and Affiliate Marketing since 1994. I must concede even so that I am a good-for-nothing merchant or perhaps a improved word is intermittent. By this I indicate that from clip to example I will brainwave a goods or employ that appeals to me and for a few life or weeks I will go in pursuit of merchandising it. Usually at original there is more than a few even of glory related to beside my pains but not ever. Believe me I have lost more than supply on Internet Marketing eBooks than I have ever made from them.
In my selling endeavors I ever loved to brainstorm a commodity or employ that could be set on "auto-pilot", or self running in otherwise words, and brand an spare few bucks a month. Let me detail that is problematic to brainwave. Mostly because the planetary of Internet marketing is ever evolving and what sells nowadays may be a non-selling portion or resource side by side calendar month. To day I have found only one that some plant like this and tiered seats the testing of instance sentience. You can publication much roughly speaking this from the linkage in my Bio/Resource box next to this article card.Post ads:

Affiliate merchandising is a waiting game
One situation I've academic through my experiences is that affiliate selling is a big ready and waiting winter sport for any rush back on property. Take for natural event beingness an Amazon Associate, beside Amazon you pull in an complete all 4% - 10% committee off of any recommendation marketing. Not bad on the surface, but a big hazard is their reportage net of gross revenue. It is e'er a 24 hour lag on getting stats from your promotions, which makes pay per chink advertizing a realistic speculation next to Amazon. The greatest ensnare but is the break clip for any administrative body attained. It takes 60 life from your freshman recommendation public sale to get a keep an eye on or funnel geological phenomenon from them.
So again you really have to be alert next to any stipendiary promotions of the referrals to Amazon. But if you have the burial or otherwise equipment to back up Amazon referral golf links and can keep on 60 days on your legal instrument you can brand a moderately good building block of not required income. Last month, March 2007, I ready-made $202 in commissions after a $96 asset in PPC exposure.Post ads:

Clickbank on the some other extremity is static an uncertain statement for affiliate commissions. The plus line-up of Clickbank is that you get a commsion keep an eye on all two weeks on the preceding two weeks referrals. So the opening skulk on your original examine is astir 4 weeks. But within are two main drawbacks to Clickbank.
One is that virtually every you can boost is promoted to decease on the Internet which manner you are warfare close to cats and dogs ended feat sales from your advertising. PPC advertsing is truly a have a flutter beside the products here because the moral collection keywords are so pricey to get clothed task next to. Expect to pay $1 - $5 per sound for polite responsibility next to Clickbank PPC advertsing.
The existing hard cash making promotions
Of all of the material possession I have proven to souk on the Internet the greatest cache originator is commercialism either your own products, such as as bodily items or eBooks you have written, or reselling opposite eBooks that you have artist reseller rights to. Having creative person reseller rights scheme that you pull together all of the income from the income and you can lay it on thick the product on your own website next to your own HTML pages.
Another uncomplicated savings initiator and possible big riches inventor is infective agent commerce. I cognize it sounds same an bane point but its not. Viral selling is the formula of freehanded distant something that links final to your actual gross sales pages or affiliate golf course. The two maximum public infectious agent marketing methods are:
- Giving away an eBook that has your golf links enclosed in them to either your gross sales leaf or an affiliate contact to another gross sales leaf. I have saved relatives respect at large items and will snatch them correct up next to shrimpy subject matter at all.
- Submitting articles engrossed by you to piece manual sites that incorporate golf links to your own sales pages or affliliate course.
To retell I would have to detail these points:
- If you are new to Internet or Affiliate Marketing anticipate to education a rightly nourishing learning crook in problem solving out what to forward and how to efficiently promote the service or service.
- Expect to expend a sometimes large magnitude of solid capital in PPC advertsing. In gact if you are new I wouldn't advocate this stance to promotion at all. Wait until you've patterned out the chains firstborn past card-playing next to what monetary system you do have.
- Look for products you can provide that you have discharge calmness concluded in both the commsions and income approach, master reseller rights products.
- Don't do by infective agent selling it is the cheapest and utmost roar for your low-level in promoting any goods or resource. Plus its never-ending. An eBook can flow around the Internet for months or years providing left over on active yield.
In judgment I would resembling to support you to cheque out the cooperation in my Bio/Resouce box for a commodity that does employment on auto-pilot and most advantageous of all incorporates both master reseller rights and infective agent commerce into one trouble-free to advance roll. It won't brand name you rich but it will assign you beside a residual revenue for months or even years maybe.

I use a very wide range of tools including different types of test equipment for electrical and electronic circuitry. I also use the general range of electrician's tools.
What was your route into this job as a trainee engineer?
Once I had completed my GCSEs I joined my present employer as an electrical engineering apprentice. I then trained for three years working through my Advanced Modern Apprenticeship gaining an NVQ Level 2 in Engineering Production (Machining), among other qualifications. Once I had completed my Apprenticeship, I enrolled on the BTEC National Certificate in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. I'm currently in my second year.
Why did you choose to be a trainee engineer?
The main reason I decided to get into this field is because I have always been interested in technology and how it all works. What's better than doing a job you love and also earning a good living along the way?
What skills and qualities do you need to be a trainee engineer
You need a positive attitude and the willingness to learn. It also helps if you have the ability to look at the 'big picture' and not just at what's in front of you. This helps with problem solving.
What hours do you work?
I work a rotating shift pattern. One week I work 6am until 2pm, then the next week I work 2pm until 10pm.
What do you like best about your being a trainee engineer?
It never gets boring or repetitive. There's always something new to learn or do. There's also a real sense of achievement once I've completed a project or job successfully.
Another good part is the opportunity to travel abroad to places like Germany and Italy, where some of our packaging machinery is manufactured.

Video description: Crawling on his hands and knees Brandon Moore brings in drinks for the crowd on a platter that's plugged in his ass. His ball gag and the platter are removed as Hayden Richards drives Brandon's head into the crotches of horny party goers. The guys shove as many cocks in his mouth as they can fit before Hayden has Brandon tied down on the fuck box. With their cocks out the guys line up for Brandon to suck them off while Hayden plows him from behind. Back in the center of the room, Brandon's hands are tied above his head with a spider gag in his mouth as the guys suck and stroke his hard cock. Brandon has clover clamps on his nipples and ordered to bite down on the chain as Hayden and Sebastian give him a dual flogging. The guys untie Brandon's hands as he's pushed down face first onto a couch full of horny dudes as he services their cocks while getting fucked from behind. The guys then drag him onto a table, pinning him down and shoving their cocks in his mouth as Brandon's hole opens up for a fist. They fist Brandon's ass and milk a load out of his cock before giving him some painful post-orgasmic torment. Back by the fireplace the guys circle around the community slut and douse his face with all their cum.

IMAGES of soot-streaked faces, charred homes, and snaking fire hoses have replaced flooded buildings and breached levees as the Midwest's summer floods have given way to California's October wildfires.
To date, 13 fires, driven largely by hot, dry winds off the Mojave Desert, have burned a combined 80,000 acres and destroyed more than 600 homes. Gov. Pete Wilson (R) has declared five counties disaster areas, opening the way for state and federal disaster aid.
As did the floods, the fires taking their toll on communities from Sonoma County to the Mexican border are highlighting individual instances of courage and sense of community that, if sustained, will help the stricken areas rebuild.
As rebuilding takes place, another quality will be in demand: The wisdom that comes from understanding the climate cycles that make brush fires a regular feature of the region and the need to factor the prospect of fires into building codes more effectively.
Such efforts can have an impact beyond fire season: The state's rainy season will soon follow. Reducing an area's vulnerability to fires can have a secondary effect in reducing its later vulnerability to mud slides in areas that fires have stripped of vegetation.
Unfortunately, such efforts also can meet with stiff resistance.
After a fire in 1991 that killed 25 people and destroyed more than 3,500 buildings in Oakland and Berkeley, the Oakland City Council proposed a package of revised building codes.
They included the use of fire-retardant materials for roofs and siding, and vegetation management to keep homes and open space free of overly dense brush and trees. One discussion centered on the need for straightened, wider streets to allow easier access for firefighters. The plan ran into stiff opposition from residents concerned in part about the costs - financial and aesthetic - that the revisions would place on reconstruction.
Yet, just as with earthquake codes, the issue is the safety of lives and property.
Red Cross chapters in the stricken areas are appealing for donations of food and other supplies through local chapters nationwide. Such aid can help ease the acute crisis. But faced with the chronic nature of California's fire season, residents should be as receptive to long-term efforts to reduce the fire hazard as they are to short-term help in meeting their immediate needs.

Q: It looks like my 2012-2013 financial aid package is a lot smaller than the financial aid package that I received as a first year law student, is this correct?
A: Yes, for most students this is correct!
Fortunately, most students have the option to have their award amounts increased. Below is an explanation of the continuing student Cost of Attendance Budget along with instructions for having the loan increased.
The total amount of financial aid funds (loans, scholarships and work study) that you receive from all sources cannot exceed your Cost of Attendance (COA) budget. Your COA has a tuition charge allocation as a well as allocation for living expenses and fees.
A one-time lap top allowance is included in your first year COA only. This line item is not included in the COA of continuing students.
The total living expense allocation for 2012-2013 is not smaller than the living expense allocation for the 2011-2012 academic year. The reason for the difference in the cost of attendance between this year and next year is the tuition charge allocation.
As a first year JD student, your COA is based on a flat rate tuition charge. As a continuing student your COA is based on a per credit tuition charge.
Initially, we base your financial aid award and cost of attendance on your registration in the minimum credits required for your program and enrollment status. As an evening student, we base your COA on your enrollment in 6 credits per term. As a full-time day student, we base your COA on your enrollment in 12 credits per term.
If you are taking more than the minimum credits and the initial financial aid award that you have received is not enough, we can increase your loans. We can customize your COA to reflect your actual enrollment rather than the minimum credits.
Once we customize the tuition portion of your COA, your total COA will increase. Once you COA amount increases, your loan eligibility increases as well. Be advised, If your registration for the fall and spring terms is not for the same number of credit hours, your financial aid refund will not be for the same amount each term. Therefore, we ask that you budget accordingly.
We are aware that the average student takes more than the minimum credits required for their program. Unfortunately, we cannot base your initial COA on average enrollment for the following reasons: If you take fewer credits than the average student does, we may be required to reduce your financial aid. This reduction in financial aid may result in a tuition balance due to the school.
If your registration for the fall and spring terms are not for the same number of credit hours, your financial aid refund will not be for the same amount each term. Therefore, we ask that you budget accordingly.
The Office of Financial Aid cautions students against borrowing up to the Cost of Attendance limit. However, if you need more loan funds than have been offered on your 2012-2013 financial aid award, please send an email to the Office of Financial Aid. In your email, please specify the exact dollar amount that you are requesting and the number of credits you intend to take in both the fall and spring semesters. Be advised, should you take less than the minimum number of credits, your financial aid may be returned and you may incur a balance. Any resulting balance would be due to Kent immediately.
Q: Are you a full-time graduating JD student that is planning to take less than 12 credits in either fall 2012 or spring 2013? If yes, please read the information below and follow the instructions to ensure that your financial aid disbursements for 2012-2013 are not delayed.
A:Your financial aid award and cost of attendance are based on your registration in the minimum credits required for your program and enrollment status. As a full-time day student, your initial cost of attendance is based on your enrollment in 12 credits per semester. We are aware that many full-time students take less than 12 credits in their last 2 semesters. For this reason, if you are taking less than 12 credits please be aware of the following:
In order to be eligible for federal loans you must be enrolled at least half time. Half-time for JD students is 6 credits. Unfortunately, if you plan to take less than 6 credits you are ineligible for federal loans and you must make alternative arrangements to pay your tuition balance.
Generally, in order to be eligible for your scholarship you must be enrolled in at least 12 credits. Fortunately, in some cases, the Office of Admissions allows graduating students to receive their scholarship when taking less than 12 credits. Please contact the Office of Admissions for further confirmation.
If you plan to take between 6 and 11 credits, it is best to send your enrollment intentions, for both the fall and spring semesters, to our office via email to prevent delays of your disbursement and refunds. Once we receive your enrollment intentions, we will customize your cost of attendance budget to reflect your projected enrollment. It is best to let us know your enrollment intentions at least 3 weeks before classes start to ensure that your financial aid is not delayed.
The Office of Financial Aid cautions students against borrowing up to the Cost of Attendance limit. Be advised that if you do not register for the credits that you have stated your financial aid may be reduced, resulting in a tuition balance due to the school immediately.
If your registration for the fall and spring terms are not for the same number of credit hours, your financial aid refund will not be for the same amount each term. Therefore, we ask that you budget accordingly.
If you received a Chicago-Kent scholarship during the 2011-2012 academic year and you expect to receive one again in 2012-2013, please be aware that most merit based scholarships for continuing students will not be included in financial aid awards until late July. The Office of Admissions reviews grades and class ranks from the Spring term and determines which students are eligible for scholarship renewal. You will receive a revised award letter in August if your scholarship is renewed. For questions about your scholarship eligibility, please contact the Office of Admissions.
To avoid delays, please submit any requested documentation as soon as possible.
Please follow the steps below to see if you still have missing requirements:
You may download some of the required forms and links to promissory notes on our website at:Financial Aid Required Documents
Once you complete your Master Promissory Notes (not loan application) and Entrance Counseling via the Department of Education's website, it may take up to 2 weeks for your required document status on the myIIT portal to reflect this. If it has been over 2 weeks since your completion of a Promissory Note or Entrance Counseling and your documents status on myIIT is still showing not received, please contact our office.

The UCC24636 SR is a compact, 6-pin secondary-side synchronous rectifier MOSFET
controller and driver for high efficiency Flyback converters operating in Discontinuous (DCM) and
Transition mode (TM). Unlike traditional SR controllers which measure the SR MOSFET drain voltage,
UCC24636 implements a volt-second balance control method to determine the turn off transition of
the SR MOSFET; hence, SR conduction time is independent of the MOSFET RDSON,
parasitic inductance or ringing allowing flexibility to designers in component slelction and PCB
layout. This control method enables maximum SR conduction time and highest rectifier efficiency for
a given MOSFET.
The controller has built in intelligence to detect converter no load operation and
automatically enters standby mode. While in standby mode, it disables the SR MOSFET and lowers its
bias supply current to 110µA to further reduce overall system standby power consumption. The wide
VDD operating range for the controller allows direct bias from the converter output for fixed or
variable output voltage designs. This eliminates the need for an auxilliary winding on the main
transformer, which simplifies the circuit design and reduces the cost.

When I bought my house I received no documentation with the pool pump other than it looks old and it is a 1 HP sears model 390262801. The pump died a month after I had solar heat panels installed on my roof. The solar installer thought my motor would be fine at 1 HP to run the panels so it may have just been old and the extra stress killed it or some other coincidence. I'm using this as an excuse to upgrade to a new energy efficient model pump. I've been doing a lot of reading and research online, but I am having some trouble estimating my head so I know what size pump to buy.
I was eyeing the Pentair Whisperflo models as they are advertised to be energy efficient and quiet (anyone with more experience feel free to correct me and recommend something else). I'm just not sure what HP rating to go with since I'm not certain of the head in my system.
Here are my details:
- My piping to the pump and filter is 1.5" and the piping from my filter outlet to the roof and my solar panels is 2".
- My solar panels (Helicol HC-40) have a recommended flow rate of 4 GPM. There are 8 of them so I need 32 GPM through the panels.
- My filter, 100 sq ft cartridge, has a max pressure of 50psi
- With the water going to the solar collectors the pressure at the filter is about 12psi
- There is about 12' of vertical 2" pipe to the solar collectors on the roof
- The solar collectors are split into two banks
- I also run a barracuda G4 attached to my skimmer pretty much at all times
I have maybe 35' of 2" pipe on the roof for the solar collectors and maybe 47' of 1.5" tubing when I account for all the plumbing from the skimmer to the pump and pool jets.
From the tech graph I saw on poolplaza if I get the 1HP full rated version of the WhisperFlo I'd be ok as long as my head is not greater than 85. Anywhere between 85 and 80 seems to be where I need to be to send 32 gpm though the solar collectors if my understanding is correct. I don't think my panels will encounter operating issues until about 60gpm, but I also don't think it is good to exceed 42gpm in 1.5" pipe right?

The National Organic Standards Board (NOSB), an advisory group responsible for considering issues and making recommendations to USDA on topics including the production, handling, and processing of organic products, held its biannual meeting in mid November in St. Louis. These meetings provide the opportunity for organic stakeholders to provide input on proposed changes and recommendations. After receiving recommendations from the NOSB, the USDA will publish its final rules on the issues.
Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack appointed five new members to the Board who will begin serving their five-year terms on Jan. 24, 2017. We are very excited that Steve Ela, an OFRF board member from 2001-2011 and previous OFRF board Chairman, has been appointed to be a member of the NOSB. Joining Steve will be Asa Bradman, a California environmental health scientist; Sue Baird, an organic consultant in Missouri; David Mortensen, a plant ecology and weed management professor at Penn State, and Joelle Mosso, a product line manager for Olam International in Fresno, CA.
Organic production is constantly evolving based on research, education, and increased understanding of our complex agricultural and production systems. It is the job of the NOSB to review inputs, amendments, innovative techniques, and processes that are impacting organic products. These meetings can have a significant impact on organic farming and manufacturing practices for many years.
One of the most hotly debated topics at the NOSB meeting included allowable inputs for certified organic production. Among other duties, the NOSB reviews the substances on the National List every five years to ensure they conform to specific criteria. In addition to reviewing substances currently allowed in organic agriculture, the NOSB also considers petitions to add or delete a particular substance.
This year, one input in particular, carrageenan, was a hot topic. It is an FDA-approved food additive made from red seaweed, which is used as a thicker, stabilizer, and emulsifier. The debate over carrageenan has been ongoing for many years. Concerns have been raised about the risk of inflammation and possibly colon cancer in humans and animals from ingesting carrageenan in food products. However, there has been a lack of conclusive scientific consensus about the human health impacts of consuming carrageenan.
At the NOSB meeting, the Board voted 10-3, with one abstention, to remove carrageenan from the list of substances approved for use in USDA certified organic foods. Following the submission of these recommendations, it is up to the USDA to issue a proposed rule change for notice and comment as the next step in the removal process. In addition to recommending the removal of carrageenan, the NOSB also rejected petitions to approve 1-Methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), which is used on harvested apples to slow ripening, and the use of soy wax in organic mushroom production.
Another hotly debated topic was bioponics, which combines the production methods of hydroponics and aquaponics to grow produce without using soil. Currently, some organic certifiers have been allowing certain hydroponic/aquaponics farms that meet all existing organic standards to carry the USDA organic label. However, debate continues over the inclusion of bioponics in organic production.
The essential discussion is around agriculture and soil. There has been ongoing debate over whether food grown in an agricultural system that doesn't rely on soil qualifies under the National Organic Program. The Organic Foods Production Act requires that "an organic plan shall contain provisions designed to foster soil fertility, primarily through the management of the organic content of the soil through proper tillage, crop rotation, and manuring".
Beyond producing safe and healthy food, organic agriculture is committed to producing important environmental benefits, and many of these environmental benefits are directly related to soil management and conservation. However, there are a number of scientists, researchers, and industry experts that support bioponic farms as ideal for growing, on the basis that the farms can make efficient use of water and nutrient inputs. Both sides of the debate have strong arguments and emphasize taking care of the earth as the foundation of organic agriculture.
The NOSB voted 10-4 to send the controversial issue back to a subcommittee for more discussion and clarification of how such production processes are defined. For now, the food grown using hydroponic methods may continue to be certified organic as long as all the established criteria for organic production are being met.
OFRF is excited to be a part of the ever growing and changing nature of organic agriculture. We will continue to work with the NOSB to ensure that organic research supports the continually evolving regulatory environment for organic farming and production.

Biography: (300 words minimum.)
Coraline Blythe was rebellious from the start.
Born April 12, 1852, to Augustus and Callidora Blythe, she was supposed to be a boy. When she went to Hogwarts in 1863, she was supposed to be a Slytherin, not a Gryffindor. And when she graduated in 1870, she was supposed to settle down with whichever man her father picked for her and get down to the business of making grandchildren, preferably male ones.
She didn't, of course.
Instead she talked her way into Auror training. Being the uncommon breed of a female auror got her sent to Europe to run covert missions for the British Ministry of Magic. It was like a dream come true. Europe was so different from the stodgy British wizarding society. She loved it and loved being out on her own.
It didn't last long. Her family's tolerance for her independent streak was extremely short-lived and she was called home almost immediately under threat of disinheritance. She was very tempted to ignore them and face the consequences, but she was pretty sure she would also find herself mysteriously fired by the Ministry, too. She did not like her family or care too much about the money, but she had to face the facts that she was not exactly equipped to make her way on her own.
So back to Cornwall she went, where her family had secured a suitable husband for her, who unsurprisingly turned out to be her cousin Lysander Thatcher. The Thatcher family held lands nearby and had long been intermarrying with the Blythes. She had no love for them either, but he wasn't completely horrible and wasn't hard on the eyes either.
Once she was married, kids weren't far behind. She wasn't exactly the most maternal woman ever, but she tried to be a good mother and found good nurses to care for the children. She kept busy doing background work for her husband and father in their various enterprises. She was good with numbers and a good judge of personality, so her father was glad to have her around. She also spent a good deal of time doing the charity and entertaining work that was expected of her.
She and Lysander had 5 kids over a span of 13 years. Two boys first, Lucian and Felix, much to her family's delight. Then girls—Beatrix in 1882 and the twins, Euphemia and Cordelia, in 1886. She tried to raise them the best she could, but Coraline had never really wanted children. She loved them, of course, but she just didn't know what to do with kids. She always made sure that she had the last say on which nurses, governess, and tutors they hired, but she was dismayed to see her children growing more and more like her husband and family. The boys were cold and calculating, downright cruel at times. Lysander was so hard on them, and she came to despise her husband more and more as her children aged.
Her father died in 1892 and left the entire Blythe fortune and estate to her younger brother, Delphinus. She had spent all her adult life so far helping him build his businesses, while Delphinus had been off in France doing Merlin knew what, but because she was a girl, everything went to him.
In 1896, her oldest son Lucian married the girl he had been seeing at Hogwarts, the daughter of two squibs, in a fit of defiance. Coraline couldn't have been more pleased. Charlotte was sweet and caring, everything Coraline wished her daughters could have been. Things were rough for the girl in their family, but Coraline tried to be as kind as she could and Charlotte was nothing but gracious.
They had six girls in a row. The girls were wonderful, so sweet and playful and Coraline enjoyed being a grandmother. Much less pressure than being a mother had been. She wished so much that Charlotte would have a son, but it wasn't to be. She saw the strain and anger it caused in their marriage and was very angry, but not surprised, when Lucian left Charlotte shortly after the birth of their sixth daughter.
Lysander was not in the least bit upset. He made some comments about the unsuitability of weak bloodlines and welcomed Lucian's new wife Elodie with open arms. Charlotte and her daughters were thrown off the Thatcher estate and Coraline could do nothing about it.
Lysander died a few short years later and Coraline wasn't even sure if she was sad about it. Lucian inherited everything, of course, and kept his ex-wife and daughters from returning. Coraline was devastated to hear that the oldest girl, named after her, had found herself in a rather…unfortunate condition. Coraline put her foot down and insisted that they take her and the new baby in. Her son relented in the face of her constant arguments.
Her granddaughter Cora reminded her so much of herself, and she couldn't help but blame her son's absence from their family for the girl's troubles. She knew Charlotte was sick and they were all being forced to live with some muggle relations, where the girls ran wild. Being a parent to a baby again was exhausting. She wasn't getting any younger and hadn't been very good at it in the first place. The girl, Lydia, was headstrong and defiant from the start, just like her mother and grandmother. Coraline tried to raise her as best she could.
Lucian died in a freak accident in 1923 and left her a significant portion of the family's assets. She now finally had some control over the family. She had reached the age where no one was inclined to argue with her whims, and the rest of her children were married and busy with their own families.
Her other son, Felix, was killed in a duel in 1925. Two months later, her younger brother Delphinus and many other family members (including all his sons) were killed in what was ruled an "accidental" explosion. Now the defacto head of a large and growing family, Coraline spends most of her time attempting to influence her family members to do what she wants and hosting large parties for various charities and Ministry officials. As head of the family she serves on the Wizengamot, where she tries to balance her feelings with the wishes of other family members. In her old age and finally having the freedoms she wanted as a young woman, she is inclined to do only what she wants, but fears that upsetting too many members of the family at once might result in her having an unfortunate accident or suddenly being ruled "senile" by the court and shipped off somewhere.

Option Two -
The snow had been falling steadily all morning and it didn't look like it was going to stop any time soon. Joshua Campbell scrunched his face up in a frown as he lifted his gaze to look to the sky. Snow. It really was quite a bother.
And it certainly didn't make it better that Diagon Alley seemed to be getting more and more crowded. Joshua sighed and pointed his wand at the large box that was currently placed on the doorstep of his shop. He had to get going. He had an order to deliver.
"Wingardium Leviosa!" The elderly man muttered and watched the box hover in the air for a moment. Honestly, did St. Mungo's really need that much tinsel? And with glitter of all things? He sighed again. If it hadn't been for the rather convincing stamp on the order, he would have been likely to believe it had been a prank by one of those orphaned rascals living up there.
Oh well, there was no point in waiting. Joshua deftly stirred the box down the doorstep and out onto the street, carefully levitating it above the heads of the crowd.
"Coming through! Coming through!" His voice sounded over the chatter of the crowd. "Keep out! Move ahead! Go on!" This was going way too slow. People were in the way and walking like they had all day! He huffed. Luckily the road was down hill.
"Coming through! Coming th--- arrrgh!" Joshua let out a loud shout as his feet suddenly slipped in the snow and sent him, the box, and several long strands of tinsel tumbling into the person who had been walking in front of him.
"For Merlin's sake!" Joshua muttered angrily as he hurried to his feet again, red and gold tinsel now decorating his black coat. "I am so sorry! This blasted snow!" He looked apologetic at the person he had crashed into.
Roleplay Response:
At her age and position, Coraline Thatcher should not have to be out on the streets battling the pre-Christmas crowds and falling snow. Some errands just couldn't be trusted to anyone else, though. She was an imposing site, gliding down Diagon Alley in a thick purple cloak and witch's hat ornamented by a carefully arranged peacock feather plumes. The impervious charms on her pointed purple boots caused her to nearly glide over the snowy cobbles, and the crowd seemed to part in front of her.
Many of the shoppers were carrying parcels and she made a mental note to send Euphemia out later today for Christmas gifts for the children. Even with rationing, it wouldn't do to have a Christmas celebration with no gifts. She would have to make sure Cordelia saved up enough ration coupons for the house elves' traditional figgy pudding, as well. There was enough going on in the Ministry these days with the war on that she should not have to bother herself with frivolous details like this, but one did what one had to when others were incompetent.
Her thoughts thus occupied, she did not notice the shouts of the gentlemen coming toward her in the alley until a solid object collided with her back. She managed to keep her footing—just barely—which was fortunate, since it would not be seemly for her to be thrashing around on the paving stones like the gentleman who had crashed into her.
Plucking strands of tinsel off her cloak, she stared down at the sparkly disruption. With a flick of her wand, the rest of the tinsel decorating the man, the snow, and her cloak was whisked back into the box.
"What is the meaning of all this…sparkle?"
She looked distastefully at the box holding the offending substance.

For the first time in more than half a century, Rhode Island may become ''a real two-party state.'' This is how Republican leaders there and those at the GOP's national headquarters read the results of special legislative elections held June 21 from Providence south to Block Island.
The vote tripled Republicans' state Senate strength from 7 to 21, and also brought them within five seats of controlling the 50-member lawmaking chamber.
William Greener, communications director for the Republican National Committee (RNC), says the campaign was a team effort ''with all elements of the party pulling together.''
The newly elected Rhode Island Senate, to be sworn in July 12, will include nine women - eight Republicans and one Democrat. In the last Senate session there were four women among 43 Democrats and one among seven Republicans.
The election - which gives the GOP more state Senate seats than it has held in nearly 30 years - has left Rhode Island Democratic forces in considerable disarray.
While the vote's long-range impact on the state's political structure is uncertain, already there has been some significant movement in the state Democratic Party.
Rocco A. Quattrocchi of Providence, whose powerful reign as state Democratic chairman and Senate majority leader was the focal point of the GOP campaign attack, now has stepped down.
The special election, which involved only the state Senate, stemmed from a court-ordered Senate redistricting. A three-judge federal panel last year had ruled that boundaries crafted by Democrats violated the ''one-man, one-vote'' concept.
In the absence of an acceptable redistricting plan, the court postponed the Senate election. Senators serving in the 1981-82 General Assembly continued to fill their posts through the 1983 Rhode Island lawmaking session.
Rhode Island Republican leaders, including campaign coordinator Thomas J. Cashill, say they hope that with 21 senators, the Republican point of view ''will no longer be ignored'' in the lawmaking process.
Republicans note that several new Democratic senators - as well as dissidents within the Democratic ranks who won reelection - had been critical of the way Mr. Quattrocchi ran the party.
Republican leaders' unwillingness to let senatorial seats go unchallenged probably contributed to the GOP gains. ''We had candidates lined up in all 50 districts, and 47 of them qualified for the ballot,'' explains Mr. Cashill.
Except for US Sen. John H. Chafee (R), a proven vote-getter, and second-term US Rep. Claudine Schneider (R) of the state's second congressional district, Rhode Island Republicans have faced increasingly tough political sledding for decades.
And nowhere had Democratic dominance been more evident than in the General Assembly, where last fall Democrats captured 85 of the 100 seats in the state House of Representatives.
Buoyed by what they view as a resurgence of Republicanism in a Democratic stronghold, Rhode Island GOP leaders now are shopping for a strong candidate for governor in 1984. Some observers suggest that John A. Holmes Jr. of Barrington, the GOP state chairman who is widely credited for quarterbacking the Senate victories, might be the choice.

HDD not there after re-boot
This is on a fresh Windows 7 install with 2 brand new drives...I was running out of space.
I have 2 drives in my laptop. The boot drive (C) is a SSD and the data drive ( D ) is a regular old spinny drive. Whenever I re-boot, the dvd drive forgets the drive letter I assigned it (E), the data drive ( D ) disappears and the dvd drive reverts back to ( D ). I have to open the computer manager and reassign the dvd drive letter to E and re-scan for the data drive and then log out/in to get everything back as it should be. Everything is fine till I re-boot then, I have to do it all again. Any ideas?

Well bug how about downloading Partition Wizard and reassigning the letters mate as most machines I have had assign D: to the optical
Start Partition Wizard right click on the partition a list will drop down > choose change the letter you can repeat this as many times as you like.
To change the letter for the optical you will have to change through Windows . I take it you assigned D for data when you put that letter on the spinner - in my pic my spinner is X:
You might have to disconnect the data drive while you do the optical first.

I have changed the optical drive to "E". I was then able to assign the spinner the letter "D". I was able to do all that within Disk Management.
When I reboot, the spinner is gone and the optical forgot that it was renamed and reverts to "D".

I may be wrong but I believe Windows reserves drive letters, such as A,B,C, and D. C is the drive the OS is currently running on, A and B are for floppy drives, and D will be for the first optical drive installed. Any drives installed after you have the C and D taken will be assigned E.
So I think you could give the HDD any letter other than A,B,C, or D and it will "stick".

Yep Britton is right mate and sort of what I said before now did you try the Partition Wizard and do what I indicated on your non optical drives from it because as I said opticals are not listed because they do not have storage media as such in them for example like the spinning disk inside a HDD (magnetic coated disk)
If you got the optical to be D: then PW will NOT let you used D: for anything nor will it let you change C: for the OS / boot drive or use it on any other drive as Britton says by default drives are assigned by the Windows and I stand to be corrected by most other software OS's.
Go in and pull up the drives and run that right click on the partitions and this time hit "explore" it will or should (unless the drive is dead) list what is in each of any of those partitions.
It can be a good way of transferring data from what you thin maybe a dying drive to some other storage drive installed in the machine albeit internal or external.

None of this is making sense. I've done my hard drive's this way since the dawn of time and never had any problems. Downloading Partition Wizard as ICit2lol suggests but, really, I'm not understanding why the way it's worked for me since the dawn of time isn't working this time.

Bug look mate just because it has always worked in the past doesn't mean it will work until the end of time.
Not being personal or having a go at you mate but getting worked up and stressed out by this I will admit annoying issue is not helping you at all. I found out a long time ago that tearing into a problem willy nilly is not the way to approach a problem and one has to think simple first because I am guilty as many others before me of thinking that there is some dreadfully wrong when it really can be worked through a little slower and with a little bit of logic.
Look if you would rather me not take part in this thread then please say so I have no "agenda" and truly I will not be offended at all. I am just saying that you should try what I would try if were my own machine and if you think it is wrong or too much trouble to do then I am not forcing you to do anything, only trying to help you out of a hole in which you are stuck.
Let me know what you want to do I am only too pleased to carry on but if you are unhappy then we had better leave it here

Wow! I'm not getting "worked up and stressed out". Where did that come from?
I tried your suggestion with the 3rd party drive utility. The verdict on weather it worked or not is still out.
What I'd like to know is, why it's not working like it has in the past? I've changed drives on this machine and others many, many times. I have always been able to re-label the various drives to my satisfaction without issue. That's my question. What's different this time? Nothing as far as I can tell. Do you know? Any suggestions? How you got that I'm "worked up and stressed out" by asking questions is beyond me.
As to weather you care to continue trying to help or not, that's entirely up to you. I appreciate you trying.

Parents at a private school in London where a convicted paedophile is said to have abused children are expected to meet police on Monday.
William Vahey, 64, taught students at Southbank International School from 2009 to last year. He was found dead last month.
It has since emerged the US citizen preyed on up to 90 boys.
The abuse is thought to have taken place at schools he taught at all over the world.
The FBI said his victims were drugged and unconscious and some may not know they were abused.
Images of students from the school were found on his computer, the school's executive principal has said.
Overnight trips
Vahey killed himself two days after investigators filed a warrant to search a computer drive belonging to him which contained pornographic images of boys aged from 10 to 14.
The school's chair of governors, former Chief Inspector of Schools Sir Chris Woodhead, said there would be a meeting for parents on Monday. He would not say where and when it would take place.
"It is being held so parents can express their concerns and have their say," he said.
"We expect that police will attend, and staff from Westminster child protection, and the NSPCC.
"The main anxiety of parents is predictable, they want information as soon as possible about whether there were images of their children discovered on Vahey's computer."
Sir Chris has already described the revelations as the "worst thing that I've ever been involved in in 40 years of education".
The investigation is being led by the FBI, which said the photos were catalogued with dates and locations that corresponded with overnight trips that Vahey had taken with students since 2008.
He was convicted of a child sex offence in California in 1969 but appears to have failed to have been included in the sex offenders' register, which allowed him to slip through the net and go on to work in several schools.
In a letter to parents on Friday, Graham Lacey, executive principal at Southbank, urged any pupils who had experienced anything disturbing to come forward.
He wrote: "As a staff we feel upset, angry and betrayed. We can only imagine what you as parents must feel."
The letter added details of the checks that were made when Vahey joined the school, including when he was subject to a Criminal Record Bureau (CRB) check, which is standard procedure and revealed nothing untoward.
A second check, three years later, produced similarly positive results and Mr Lacey added that three references the school obtained were "outstanding" and "specifically stated that there were no safeguarding issues".
Mr Lacey said Vahey was an "extremely popular teacher" and several parents had even expressed their sadness about his leaving the school.
He said there had been one incident that occurred, which was investigated by school management at the time, but both the parents and the child stated they did not want to pursue the matter any further.
Vahey taught in various international schools, which has led the FBI to believe his victims are from all over the world.
He was confronted about the images by a colleague at the American Nicaraguan School in Managua, Nicaragua, where he had most recently been teaching, and he confessed that he was molested as a child and had preyed on boys all his life, plying them with sleeping pills before abusing them.
Vahey, who had a home in London as well as in South Carolina, was found dead in Luverne, Minnesota, on 21 March.
Scotland Yard has said it is helping the FBI with its inquiries.
A spokesman has said: "Officers from the sexual offences, exploitation and child abuse investigation team are assessing and evaluating intelligence passed to the MPS (Metropolitan Police Service) by US authorities, and actively seeking any evidence whilst working with partner agencies to ensure that potential victims are supported."
The FBI said Vahey worked in the following schools:
- American Nicaraguan School, Managua, Nicaragua: 2013 until March 2014
- Southbank International School, London, United Kingdom: 2009-2013
- Escuela Campo Alegre, Caracas, Venezuela: 2002-2009
- Jakarta International School, Jakarta, Indonesia: 1992-2002
- Saudi Aramco Schools, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia: 1980-1992
- American Community School, Athens, Greece: 1978-1980
- Passargad School, Ahwaz, Iran: 1976-1978
- American School of Madrid, Madrid, Spain: 1975-1976
- American Community School of Beirut, Beirut, Lebanon: 1973-1975
- Tehran American School, Tehran, Iran: 1972-1973.
