Photograph courtesy the Bahamas Ministry of Tourism In 2004, a Bahamian theatre group, the Dust Track Theatre Company, took to the streets of downtown Nassau during the annual Junkanoo parade. Four characters dressed in costume processed ceremoniously down the road next to a coffin containing a personification of the Junkanoo. After displaying the interred Junkanoo to the crowd, the troupe of actors performed a mock public trial, trying to determine who killed Junkanoo. The corporate sponsor of the parade (represented by a character dressed in his business suit) and the politician (donning the familiar colors and insignia of both major Bahamian political parties) stood accused of the festival's death, and were solemnly found guilty. Dust Track's unusual skit decried the death of Junkanoo at the hands of political culture brokers and business interests. But, ironically, the performers' use of the parade as a form of critique signalled anything but the demise of the centuries-old celebration. Instead, their spoof represented a contemporary manifestation of the Junkanoo's longstanding form as a performance of provocation, parody, and play in Bahamian society. No one knows exactly when Junkanoo (originally spelled "John Canoe") began, or where the name comes from. Historians have suggested that the celebration honours a successful black merchant by the name of John Connu or Conny, who lived along the Guinea Coast of Africa around 1720. More generally, the earliest forms of the masquerade appear to draw on performance traditions from West Africa. Masqueraders, according to the earliest reports of John Canoe in the Bahamas dating from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, wore masks with large tusks on their heads, dangled on tall stilts, or tied cow's tails to their rumps. Through the masked performance, Africans brought by force to the New World could remember, reincarnate, and reinvent Africa in the Americas. The tradition found expression across Britain's colonies in the West Indies and in the southern United States, from South Carolina to Jamaica. Unlike the pre-Lenten Carnival traditions in other Caribbean isles, John Canoe historically occurred during the Christmas season (on Boxing Day), one of the very few times of the year when masters gave slaves a reprieve from work on the plantation. John Canoe developed distinct local variants in different places. In Jamaica, the masquerade originally centred on a single masked figure called the "John Canoe", who wore an elaborate headdress in the shape of a house-boat. The headdress was constructed of pasteboard and coloured paper, and ornamented with beads, tinsel, spangles, and glass. One of the earliest drawings of the John Canoe in any context comes from Jamaica, and was created by the London-educated Jamaican artist Isaac Belisario. A print from 1834, on the eve of Emancipation, shows the John Canoe donning the elaborate headdress and European attire, complete with a St Louis-style jacket, striped pants, and gloves (unlike the earliest descriptions of animal-inspired costumes). The masked figure was often accompanied by a small entourage of band members, who, with drums and percussion instruments in hand, followed the John Canoe with noisy enthusiasm. John Canoe referred simultaneously to the specific figure with the headdress, to other masked characters, and to the musical accompaniment. In Jamaica, the John Canoe troupe travelled from plantation house to house imploring (or extorting) monies from plantation owners for their performance. The John Canoe, in which participants wore white faces and fine clothing, provided a rare opportunity for slaves to inhabit and imagine life outside of bondage. John Canoe in the Bahamas was different from its counterparts in Jamaica and other places, since it appears that the masquerade was not a form of entertainment on plantations. Nor did John Canoers receive any remuneration for being a part of the performance. In comparison to other places, the earliest form of John Canoe in Nassau resided uneasily in Bahamian society. It was a tradition that those in authority tolerated, but seldom supported, and often viewed as a palpable threat to the status quo. A large part of this suspicion and fear of John Canoe stemmed from where it took place, in the main — and predominantly white Bahamian-owned — business district of downtown Nassau. Every Boxing Day, in the dead of night following Christmas, masqueraders from the surrounding black communities, known locally as "over the hill", transgressed the island's unspoken racial boundaries by congregating in masks en masse in the heart of the Bay Street area. In the late nineteenth century, many of the John Canoers organised into groups according to their African ethnic affiliations, including Ebos and Yorubas, and these factions left their neighbourhoods and frequently clashed downtown. They wore costumes composed of rags, sponge, or newspaper torn into free-floating strips. In essence, the costumes used the debris and discarded material of society. The masqueraders covered their faces with wire mesh masks, concealing their identities behind expressionless painted-on white faces. They came armed with cowbells, which served not only as instruments but as weapons against rival groups or persons. The earliest newspaper reports, often alarmist, cast the masquerade as a free-for-all and a dangerous space for "respectable" citizens and visitors. One tourist who wanted to witness the John Canoe in 1916 was warned by a local woman not to take her camera. She was cautioned that the last person to aim a camera in a John Canoer's direction had his ear bitten off. By all accounts, John Canoe at this period was not an event for the faint of heart — the John Canoers owned the space that day, and spectators, locals and foreigners alike, attended at their peril. It was not until the late 1920s and 30s that John Canoe started to change into a parade, one in which cameras and tourists were welcome. Tourism promoters and officials in the colony decided at this time — cognisant of the global craze for black culture — to encourage the John Canoe, albeit in a transformed version. They offered cash prizes, paid for by local businesses, for the best costumes, hoping that John Canoers would be persuaded to trade in their rags for potential riches. They also drummed up a police band to head the parade. Just in case the older forms of behaviour threatened to reappear at the event, the authorities made sure to line the streets with police, armed not with drums but with batons. The new organising committee also aimed to change the date of John Canoe from its traditional occurrence on the day after Christmas to New Year's morning, rationalising that the secular celebration should not occur so close to the religious commemoration of Christ's birthday. John Canoers responded to these efforts with a mixture of opportunism, satire, and creativity. Interestingly, while many participants showed up on the newly designated morning for the parade, they continued to gather without sanction for the traditional Boxing Day celebration. Indeed, the John Canoe in Nassau continues to this day to take place on the two days. Many masqueraders did participate in the prize competition, shedding their costumes of "junk" in favor of prettier and more colourful paper creations, sometimes in the shapes of various objects — flowers or conch shells — or personifications of people, such as Haile Selassie. Some used the opportunity to parody the very processes of control and co-optation evident in the tourist board's initiatives. In 1929, several masqueraders patrolled around the parade site dressed like policemen, the very authorities enlisted to control the parade. One tourist expressed surprise that a local commandant seemed nonplussed by the masqueraders' mocking of authority. Another masquerader dressed like a British military attaché, striding around the streets solemnly with an umbrella and book. In both instances, the parade participants dressed and mimicked the mannerisms of those in authority, and commanded a space where in everyday life black Bahamians had little control. But not all the masqueraders subscribed to the new and improved John Canoe. Some of them — with instruments in hand and without costumes — made their presence felt and heard both at the official John Canoe and, as newspapers lamented, before and after the parade. Although the authorities moved towards a self-interested acceptance of the new John Canoe, they remained suspicious of the subversive potential of the gathering of masked black men, conscious that the open parody of authority might one day result in an actual challenge of the status quo. Thus in 1942, at the time of the Burma Road Riots — unrest following labour disputes with an American company hired to construct the airport — the authorities quickly cancelled the parade for several years. It seems they were fearful that the revolutionary spirit evident in the protests — marches that involved the singing of John Canoe songs and the beating of drums — would ignite during John Canoe. During these years, John Canoe, despite law enforcers' efforts to cease all public gatherings, continued to take place in the black "over the hill" communities. In 1948, in part at the urging of tourism promoters, Junkanoo (as the John Canoe parade was now increasingly called) returned to Bay Street. As in the past, however, those who aimed to promote a prettified version of the festival found that black participants — in and out of costume — ruled the day. Many of them chose to participate in the parade without costumes. In an effort to clean up the festival, would-be organisers mandated that only persons in costume made of frayed crêpe paper could appear on the streets during Junkanoo, and offered prizes for the most beautiful and most original costumes. These policies would dramatically transform the Junkanoo, inspiring participants to concentrate more intently on the aesthetics of their costumes. This may account in part for why Junkanoo remains one of the only festivals on the scale of Carnival or Mardi Gras in which participants spend months hand-making their individual costumes, and in which all costumes are different. The emphasis on prizewinning crêpe paper costumes inspired another change: the intense competition between rival gangs — once a hallmark of Junkanoo — was replaced by competing groups who battled for prizes, and, perhaps more importantly, for the prestige of gaining top honours. Two of the largest and most popular groups vying for victory in Bay Street in the 1960s were the Saxons (from the Masons Addition area) and the Valley Boys (from the Palmdale area). In these neighbourhood-affiliated groups, men started to collectively construct John Canoe costumes through the labour-intensive process of pasting successive layers of fringed crêpe paper or newspaper over cardboard, laying each strip of paper carefully above the next until the entire costume was covered in large mosaics of bright colours. (By some estimates, the average contemporary costume contains between three and five thousands strips of crêpe paper.) Individuals created their own costumes, and members of the group worked collectively to realise the larger pieces, costumes that increasingly assumed a three-dimensional form. All the pieces came together to animate a particular theme, which was kept a carefully guarded secret until Junkanoo morning. In 1960, for instance, the Valley Boys appeared as the Scottish Highlanders. As potential prize-winning costumes grew more elaborate in detail and larger in size, the groups had to seek corporate sponsorship to offset the great expense incurred in their creation. The increasing need to attract and appease financial support may have quelled some of the rebellious spirit of Junkanoo, and marked the first time the ruling classes played a direct role in the creation of costumes. A paradox, however, seems to exist in the sponsored, prize-centred form of Junkanoo. Although many of the large groups invest so much in producing costumes, participants in the parade typically abandon their costumes the moment the parade ends, leaving them, like discarded carcasses, on the side of the street. This immediate abandonment suggests that for all the emphasis on competition, the process of making the costumes — the collective creative work — and their performance — that moment when the costumes come alive momentarily on Bay Street — is really what drives Junkanoo. Since the 1970s, Junkanoo has grown in size and duration every year. It used to occur for a few hours before dawn, but the parade now goes on for almost twelve hours, beginning at midnight and ending long after sunrise. Members of Junkanoo organisations, who work out of makeshift square structures known as shacks, have swelled from perhaps twenty to as many as five hundred people. Many of the earliest groups continue to "rush" on Bay Street, and they have spawned Junkanoo protégés, including the One Family and Roots groups. Women — traditionally not participants in Junkanoo — also fill the groups' ranks today, even though they are most visible as choreographed dancers in the parade. Costumes have also increased in size and detail. In recent years, groups have added — not without controversy — Carnival-like tricks including glitter, feathers, lights, and rhinestones to the costumes, even though cardboard and crêpe paper remain the main materials of Junkanoo. They have also reduced the weight of the cardboard by using decorated lightweight rods and carved Styrofoam (frequently sculpted to represent facial features or hands), conscious of the rules specifying that, to be eligible for the competition, a costume must be carried by one person. Despite these new technologies, costumes can still easily weigh three hundred pounds. At the parade, spectators line both sides of Bay Street and surrounding Shirley Street, chanting their favourite group's name. In a secular form of call-and-response, the audience vocally and physically responds to the group's music and costumes. Audience members often assume the role of judges at the parade, engaging in keen and very vocal formal analysis of the costumes, making their appreciation or disapproval of a group known to all those around them. Even a spectator who supports a particular group will begrudgingly concede that a rival group's costumes are pretty. With all these backseat judges, it's no wonder that the official prize announcements are frequently greeted by the runners-up with a chant now as familiar as the popular Junkanoo tunes: "They rob us." Since the Bahamas became independent in 1973, Junkanoo — for years seen as an event to be controlled or co-opted by the ruling classes — has moved from the margins of society to the centre of national culture. Indeed, to many Bahamians, Junkanoo is synonymous with Bahamian culture, and represents a celebration of the nation's African heritage. While in the past many participants in the parade mocked those in authority, in the post-colonial era politicians of the new black ruling class have regularly appeared in the parade. Sir Lynden Oscar Pindling, the first prime minister of the independent Bahamas, seen as a man of the people, rushed with the Saxons. More recently, Prime Minister Perry Christie has been renowned for his Junkanoo shuffle, which he performs on and off Bay Street. In this respect, contemporary Junkanoo sometimes seems not a platform to parody those in authority but a stage on which politicians can show off their power and popularity with the people. Politicians of all political persuasions have also turned to this favourite symbol of national culture in their efforts to promote tourism to the islands, ironically using a festival originally feared by many early visitors. In 2004 — the same year Dust Track took to the streets — the minister of culture proposed moving the parade, historically routed through and rooted in Bay Street, to the thoroughfare in front of Nassau's main hotels. A public outcry quickly quashed these plans. This incident would clearly have been on the mind of Dust Track's performers as they accused the politicians of Junkanoo's death. Despite the political and commercial forces that come to bear on Junkanoo, subversive and satirical portrayals of the governing classes are still an intrinsic part of Junkanoo, as the Dust Track performance proves. Also, interestingly, many of the small groups known as "scrap groups" — the ones who create their costumes in an unapologetically hurried fashion and whose motivation is celebration, not competition — have offered not only a critique of the government in their songs, but a subtle subversion of the competition-driven groups. On New Year's Day in 2006, after several large and well-choreographed Junkanoo groups marched by, a small group called The Sting, numbering less than fifty, gave an energetic performance. Large strips of crêpe paper dangled carelessly off their hurriedly created costumes as they danced passionately and playfully before the Junkanoo spectators. Paradoxically, recalling the long-ago tourist's description of a John Canoe character in 1929, one of the women in the group sported the costume of a policeman. Unencumbered by heavy costumes and by pressures to perform to win, the group sang and shook to their own, and the audience's, hearts' content. The Sting has also circumvented the rules of Junkanoo, not caring about winning, by recording music and playing the tune during their performance. That year, their song criticised the work ethic, or lack of thereof, of those in the public service and the members of parliament responsible for the bloated workforce. At a time when some might lament the death of Junkanoo, groups like The Sting and Dust Track seem contemporary reincarnations of Junkanoo's ever-changing, inventive, and playfully subversive form.

Inverters play a crucial role in any solar energy system and are often considered to be the brains of a project, whether it's a 2-kW residential system or a 5-MW utility power plant. An inverter's basic function is to "invert" the direct current (DC) output into alternating current (AC). AC is the standard used by all commercial appliances, which is why many view inverters as the "gateway" between the photovoltaic (PV) system and the energy off-taker. As the price of modules fall, inverters and additional system components have become a focus in price reduction for EPCs looking for a new competitive edge.
Inverters are an important part of any solar installation; they are the brains of the system. Although the inverter's main job is to convert DC power produced by the solar array into usable AC power, its role is only expanding. Inverters enable monitoring so installers and owners can see how a system is performing. Inverters can also provide diagnostic information to help O&M crews identify and fix system issues. These important components are increasingly taking on decision-making and control functions to help improve grid stability and efficiency.
Additionally, given the amount of time it can take to complete larger solar projects, some solar inverter manufacturers have begun developing larger, 1,000-V inverters to drive down costs. As projects grow in size, so do the costs associated per inverter. Right now, depending on the efficiency of the modules, a 2-MW project probably amounts to between 10 and 15 acres of panels. Such a system requires an inverter with much larger capabilities than current standard inverters have. The solution is to transition to 1,000 V to reduce that cost.
With the new generation of hybrid solar inverters, energy storage systems and battery options now on the market we put together this complete guide of what's available and how the various systems work. With any type of solar/battery or off-grid system there are many important features to consider when selecting and sizing the various components. To make it easier we have also created the hybrid/off-grid energy storage selection guide highlighting the key features and specifications which should be considered.
A Grid-Tie inverter supplements your mains utility power with solar power. In order to achieve this the electricity produced by your solar panels is converted from direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) by the grid-tie inverter. The inverter then synchronises the two power sources and supplements the mains utility with the solar power. The advantage of this system is that you can drastically reduce your mains utility bill through solar power. This type of system unfortunately does not function if it does not have mains electricity to synchronise with and therefore cannot be used as a backup system.

The brain is a curious thing.. I often find myself making seemingly random connections that even I cant quite figure out.. so here I am on a Saturday afternoon trying really hard to revisit my literature review. Do I want it systematically arranged in chronological order or do I want it to be thematic? choices.. choices.. and suddenly I am on wordpress searching for Pacific island(er) bloggers who might be blogging on education or the arts/culture.. no such luck only three popped up tagged in Pacific arts and Oceania and not a single hit for Pacific education…That was a bit of a downer given that there are hundreds of thousands of Pacific islanders in the world today (if you add those in the islands and Diasporas) and a lot of them have access to internet (for e.g. see fb). Yes, yes I know blogging is not for everyone. I mean I started a blog (Saumaiafe and the ghazal singer) a few years ago and its been inactive for some time now.. (something I need to rectify)… Getting over that bit of disappointment, I decided to write this entry on the origins of thought.. seeing as I have been preoccupied with 'ontological' and 'epistemological' framing for the last six months…
The problem with writing a Pacific PhD is that the description itself is contested… so what do you mean a Pacific PhD.. do you mean you are studying in the Pacific? Do you mean you are studying the Pacific? Or are you trying to embed Pacific thinking in the PhD from a Pacific perspective… well for me the answer is yes, yes and yes.. for others (esp. non P.I's) perhaps just yes, yes and no)… Just like Pacific Art and Pacific Education.. these are seen as mere adjectives to describe rather than define.. and so here I am .. I want to write a PhD from the insider perspective of a Pacific island daughter.. I know there are many who detest the "insider", "outsider" terminology but what the hell! It's accurate. Everyone is dually an insider or an outsider so what's so wrong with acknowledging that a researcher's own subjectivity and background (cultural and otherwise) informs (a) the conceptual frames; and (b) interpretations and analysis.
So what is my dilemma? Well to put it plainly I feel like I am being boxed in by this whole process of PhDing. I conduct research as part of my scholarly work in education and art/culture development but to get into indigenous knowledge – the research walkway suddenly leads into thick bush. You see – the perspective of a Pacific islander is one in which "research has become a bad word" (Tuhiwai Smith, 1999) and representative of communities that feel they "…have been researched to death" (Castellano, 2004). There is animosity about being misrepresented, misinterpreted by 'outsiders' and today, some view Pacific researchers with equal disdain. My mother who was born and raised in Samoa constantly reminded me that "some things are a privilege to learn" but "their power remains only in keeping them sacred and hidden". She would tell me genealogical stories and then say "don't write that down". It is this notion of closed or secret knowledge that bothers me. Am I doing a disservice to the people I have committed myself to fight for? And the western educated alter-ego self reasons that if it is not documented it may be lost, but the Pacific islander id-persona is doubtful still.
Having said that, my bigger stress-button is the argument of "Western research paradigms" and "knowledge systems" that we must abide by. Granted I have chosen to undertake the PhD which is a 'western' construct of higher education and in so doing, I am mindful that I ought to follow the rules of research – and ensure a reasonable rigor while trying to contribute new knowledge. So whats the problem? I hear you say..
The problem is the overwhelming plethora of indigenous writing that has emerged over the last 20 years attempts to decolonize education and research – which is wonderful! I too want to join this club of thinkers.. but at the same time.. how do I as a PhD candidate validate (to myself and to my examiners) that I have adequately framed my research in the expected (yes western) paradigms but at the same time, claimed the process as my own?
So a friend tells me to revisit Edward Said's Orientalism – yes yes.. make the connections etc etc… but the problem of getting into the "other" box is that I run the risk of writing another anti-western dissertation that is pre-occupied with "reacting" and calling for a "decolonization of the mind". Don't get me wrong, I agree with them – but I don't necessarily want to write a sequel.
I think my supervisor is right when she says the world has gone mad.. or maybe I have?
Perhaps I ought to stop over-thinking and just complete the damned literature review… the problem with epistemology though will be the subject of my next post…

An undisguised prototype of the 2016 Smart ForTwo Cabrio has been spotted undergoing final testing in Stuttgart.
An undisguised prototype of the 2016 Smart ForTwo Cabrio has been spotted undergoing final testing in Stuttgart.
As expected, it looks virtually the same as its fixed roof sibling with the exception of the electrically-operated folding canvas top carried over from its predecessor, just like the manually removable side bars.
Daimler-owned Smart has already announced the ForTwo Cabrio will be out later this year with the same naturally aspirated 1.0-liter engine developing 60 HP (45 kW) and 71 HP (52 kW) along with a beefier 0.9-liter turbo rated at 90 HP (66 kW). A five-speed manual transmission will be standard, but at an additional cost you will be able to order an optional dual-clutch six-speed gearbox.
A Brabus-prepared version of the ForTwo is in the works and chances are it will also be available as a Cabrio with an uprated version of the 0.9-liter turbo likely pushing out around 120 HP (88 kW).
Smart will bring the US-spec 2016 ForTwo to this week's New York Auto Show and they could decide to unveil the Cabrio as well. If that won't happen, a September debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show is very probable.

Monday 27th February
Somehow the big storm missed us overnight. The huge lightning display went on for hours but there was no rain. That is not something I can say for other towns in a 100klm radius. Some got an absolute drenching, two months rain in 6 hours. We are pleased we moved during the night just to be on the safe side. The weather forecast is rain for the remainder of the week.
With rain all about and all grounds becoming wet and muddy we are better off back in the relative dry of the Culcairn Caravan Park. We passed through the town of Yarrawonga, the great wine producing area. Yarrawonga looks a new and wealthy town and worth a look around. Alas not today. Next was another wine town of Rutherglen but we turned off a few klms from the town to take the bridge over the Murray River into the NSW town of Corowa, The birthplace of Australian Federation.
Once again this is an old town with many of the original buildings restored and still being used today. Although we felt like exploring we were limited by time and weather to have a drive around town before pointing WWWGO towards Culcairn again. First we crossed the historic, one lane, timber John Foord Bridge to the sister town of Wahgunyah on the Victorian side of the Murray River. We had lunch at a riverside park until it started to rain.
All the towns we passed through this morning are attractive both historically and architecturally and we would enjoy visiting them again. There are several festivals in the Murray Valley area over the next month so we may still have a chance to visit. Our location in Culcairn means we are no more than 2 hours from these towns by TERIOS.
On reflection it seems there are more towns and people squeezed into Victoria than say NSW where distances between towns becomes greater, especially the further north you travel. Compared to Queensland where distances between towns is huge and measured in hundreds of klms instead of 20 or 30klms.
We travelled through Howlong and followed the Murray River back into Albury then back onto the Hume Freeway before connecting with the Olympic Highway and 30 klms later we were back in Culcairn.
Our favourite spot beside the creek was already taken by other campers. One of them leaves in the morning so we parked temporarily overnight.
Tuesday 28th February
It started to rain overnight. Tentatively at first but getting heavier and heavier. By morning we found two leaks in our ceiling and outside, little rivulets of water moving past our door. The water was deeper than my shoes!
I have no idea where the leaks are starting from but I cannot do anything about them until it is dry by which time I cannot trace the leaks anyway.
Billabong Creek is a large system and carries lots of water long distances, following the Murray in some respects. Heavy rain in Holbrook, a town to the East, will cause local nuisance flooding but due to the rubbish in the creek will result in flooding here in Culcairn and further west if the rain persists. The weather forecast suggests the rain will be with us all week so we moved from our temporary spot by the creek to the level campsites on top of the hill. We also get a nice flat concrete slab to set up our outside furniture…when the rain stops and when we can put the awning out.
Today was our anniversary so in celebration we drove to Albury where we had an early Chinese meal then saw the movie, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close.
Wednesday 29th February
The rain has persisted all day and at times became heavier. The leaks have not recurred during the day. However, our once perfect TV reception has deteriorated to NO SIGNAL. Tracing everything I found the antenna booster light is not umm err lit. According to the user manual it is caused by a short in the cable and power will be restored once the short is cleared.
Hmmm! The only place I think there could be a short is at the top of the antenna. Because the antenna is frequently raised and lowered, perhaps over time the connection has worn. There is only one way to know for sure. That is, to climb on the roof and check the masthead. That job will have to wait until tomorrow when there is daylight and a break in the rain.
Today the park manager asked the other two campers in the lower section beside the creek to move to higher ground as she had been told to expect the creek levels to rise in the next day or two.
Thursday 1st March
The creek rose during the night and the roof leak has returned.
The caravan park manager received a phone call from people at Holbrook 29 klms to the east. They had lots of rain overnight, some streets have nuisance flooding and all water is draining into Billabong Creek. We should see the creek rise a good deal further over the next 24 hours.
After climbing onto the roof, in wet weather gear, I could not find an obvious antenna fault but did notice the coaxial cable is cracked in a few places (from years in the sun. I covered those with black electricians tape but the tv reception is still almost nil. Another camper has mentioned his normally perfect reception has also deteriorated.
Friday 2nd March
The creek rose another metre and a half during the morning but remained at that level for the remainder of the day. Although today has been rain free, the forecast is for heavy rain to return tomorrow. According to the news, 75% of NSW is in flood or under flood watch. We are dry and comfortable but on the news we saw, places we visited last week are already flooded. Wangaratta, Yarrawonga, Rutherglen, and surrounding areas.
Hmmm! Our little visit was well timed.
Saturday 3rd March
This time last year WWWGO was parked at Traveston and I visited beaches in brilliant sunshine along the Sunshine Coast. One place I visited was Inskip Point,
a little north of Rainbow Beach. The CO-PILOT was in Canada.
This time 2010 I was in Airlie Beach and surprise, surprise, the CO-PILOT was in Canada. It was raining, much like today, with gradually heavier rain during the day.
In 2009 we were in Airlie Beach, the CO-PILOT was at home and we were cleaning our motorhome (the Coaster) in preparation for the trip to Tasmania. At the same time, cyclone Hamish was threatening the coast and it was raining. Like today, the rain got heavier and heavier.
Today the Billabong Creek rose about 2.5m and dropped a metre by late afternoon.
Then the rain started again. It rained and rained.
Sunday 4th March
Woke to constant rain and the leak in the roof continues to drip.
Billabong Creek started to rise about mid-morning. By mid-afternoon it had broken its bank and water was spreading out across the area we were camped in for the last few weeks.
The water level rose quickly and submerged the picnic table which was once beside WWWGO.
By now it had stopped raining and the sun made a welcome appearance, driving the humidity level up to 70%.
Before long, the picnic table on the far side of the lower level campground was surrounded by brown muddy debris laden floodwater. Only the table top was showing. The SES depot on the other side of the railway line set off a number of alarms, calling volunteers to action. Soon lots of cars, utes and trucks were arriving for the SES assembly.
This no longer funny.
The water level has come halfway up the hill behind us.
I am not sure, if we had to evacuate, where we could go. The road south to Albury is lower and has water across in several places. There are fewer cars and trucks coming from that direction. West to Walla Walla and Walbundrie is the same. Walla Walla is already cut off. North to Wagga Wagga and the road is cut at The Rock and Uranquinty and evacuations have already occurred in those towns. The road east to Holbrook has several low level bridges across the Billabong. Lockhart was evacuated early this morning.
We packed up ready to leave if necessary but there is really nowhere to go. The flood peaked at 9.3m at Morven and expected through here at midnight. No trains have passed through in the last two hours.
At midnight the peak was just a few metres from our wheels.
Whew! What a relief.
Well, we hope it was the peak. I'm off to bed.

Feel Me Up and Tell Me I am Secure, Or Is It Raining?
Well here we go, I told you that the people would give up their freedoms for this false security. According to a number of poles out there 81% of those surveyed are willing to be felt up, and photographed naked for a false sense of security.
With all the controversy in the media over the security full-body scanners and pat downs at airports, a CBS poll finds four-in-five people (81%) are in favor of the full-boxy scanners, while just 15% say they're opposed.
The pilots have won a small battle in that they will not go through the stringent screening. The thought I have heard behind this is if, the pilot wants to bring the plane down he just has to aim it.
There have been many complaints about the pat downs from a lady who is a cancer survivor was made to take off her prosthetic breast to people that have been taken to rooms and made to disrobed and put on special robes. Yet there are 81% out there that will let the government fill up there wives, and take nude photos of their kids. Because we will be safe.
One of the best records in air travel is Israel. They use a simple way of starting the process, They talk to the people.
In Israel baggage and traveler stay together until the security check is completed. Screeners at American airports don't usually engage in conversation with passengers, unless you count their endlessly repeated instructions about emptying pockets and taking laptops out of briefcases. At Ben Gurion, security officials make a point of engaging in dialogue with almost everyone who's catching a plane.
Not many people here in the states know that there is a Less Invasive way to scan. The technology is called, Automated Target Recognition, but it is used in Amsterdam and no one in our government is invested or owns stock in the manufacturing company that makes it.
The image produced by the A.T.R. is basically a stick figure, as compared to almost pornographic images produced by the back scatter machines. The A.T.R. exposes the passenger to less radiation that the B.S.M.
There is also a third scanner that only produces a picture when an alarm goes off when something is found.
In an email, TSA Spokesperson James Fotenos told CBS that TSA is testing out the new technology "which would transmit images only when an alarm is triggered" but the agency said, "the current version of automated threat detection technologies does not meet TSA's detection standards. TSA sees automated threat detection as a viable option for the future."
TSA included that "software development is currently underway and will be followed by testing to ensure effective detection."
I will leave you with this thought I told you about this the other day, the vans that are out there with the ability to look through your walls.

Project Description
AVA Little Tokyo
The Fuscoe Engineering team provided full construction surveys, mapping, water quality assurance and civil engineering work for this project. Because there was no adjacent storm drain to tie into, design for this project proved to be difficult. The area drain systems are shallow, therefore all drainage is designed to outlet through the curb face on adjacent streets. Site water quality treatment was handled with flow through planters. The streets were packed with existing infrastructure, so off-site improvement plans (B-Permit) were challenging, as was coordinating the street lights, driveways, trees and proposed utility connections to fit and work with the existing street culture.

There's a ghost in my attic
He reminds me of you
He speaks no words
yet rattles the chains that bind him so
I trapped him there
with my memories of you
The chains that bind him also
Only I can free him
and as I do
I also free me
That's the vow I made in a past life to the man I was in relationship for the past year and a half in this life.
I made that vow a very long time ago. Long before I met him this time around. I recently went through training to be certified in hypnosis. Because I was the only student in this training we could focus on the topics that most interested me. Past Life Regression was at the top of the list.
The beautiful Madonna Kettler, my hypnosis trainer, brought me through a past life regression so I could understand the experience more fully. We went into the regression with the intention that I would gain more understanding as to why I was struggling to let this man go. Past Life Regression can help one gain insight into current unconscious patterns that can show up to sabotage our lives.
During this regression I saw that this man and I were farmers in Ireland during the Iron Age. We were twin brothers and were very close. Being twins in another life explained to me why I felt so connected to him. In our life in Ireland he died of an infection and two days later I hung myself because I could not bear to live without him. That was when I swore that we would be together again and that I would never again let him go.
In this life we broke up at the beginning of this year. We decided to stay friends but he slowly stopped taking my calls and I never heard from him again. It felt very much like a death. My grief was like nothing I had ever experienced before. I would do really well for a little while and then the grief would start all over again.
After this regression I had a sense of peace and understanding of why I felt so strongly about this man. I could finally let go. . . or so I thought. The next morning my grief was more intense than ever! I reached out to him yet again asking him if we could still be friends and he, again, did not respond. I kept hoping that his non-response was a maybe. What ever his reasons he wasn't able to give me the closure I wanted and felt I needed to move on. I had to do this on my own.
That vow I made to not let him go has been my prison. It has kept me grieving and still longing for connection with this man. I went out into the woods and talked to some of my favorite trees and asked for help letting go. I knew i needed to break the vow I made so long ago. It was keeping us both trapped in a prison of attachment. I could not fully move forward in my life unless I did this. So, I set my intention, and asked for help in letting go from my Nature Spirit Helpers.
I didn't magically let go with a walk in the woods. Yet, that intention did bring me to getting another regression. This final regression helped me to understand even more fully the connection with this man and gave me the tools to release him. I feel free this time.
Not everyone believes in past lives. It doesn't really matter because healing can still occur regardless of that belief. My unconscious was holding onto a pattern that was keeping me stuck. Even if I made all of this up, my imagination is helping me to see through metaphor how to heal. That is the beauty of past life regression. It makes the unconscious conscious and once that occurs we no longer need to be trapped by our unconscious behaviors.
Having this experience helped me make sense as to why I was grieving as long as I did. It also showed me why I had been unable to move on. I am now a certified hypnotist and am looking forward to helping many others find the answers they seek. Whether that be through past life remembrance, metaphor or symbology, this technology is a great way to tap into our unconscious for health, healing, and wholeness. You can find out more here.
Mine sure has been. She has picked every single man I have dated in the past 25 years. Now these have not been bad men. They have all been beautiful. My inner child can see an awesome playmate a mile away. She is drawn to innocence, gentleness, humor and fun. Every one of these relationships was incredible in their own way. That is, until my adult showed up. That is usually the point where the relationship would dissolve and the tantrums (mine) would begin.
While talking to a friend, I was sharing my struggles with letting go of my last boyfriend. We had recently broke up and I couldn't seem to let him go. My friend playfully pointed out that I was acting like a brat. He said this with love but what I heard was that I was acting like a child. He said you want this man and only him and it can't be any other way. And it was absolutely true. He reminded me of what my adult wanted, a helpmate. My inner child was willing to compromise what the grownup me wanted to get back together with this man. The internal struggle would always look something like this.
"But I love him so much!"
"Yes, but he's not for you."
"But I know he loves me."
"He's not available," says my adult self. "You want someone who will return your calls, tell you he loves you first, build a life together, step up to the plate. . ."
"But, but, but . . . "
Through the help of this friend I was able to see how my inner child has been in charge of my romantic relationships and keeping me in pain.
Parenting Your Inner Child
Once I became aware of my pattern of behavior I imagined myself holding my inner 2-year-old in my arms. I told her that she had to let this man go. I told her I understood how much she wanted and liked this person but he was not the right man for us now. I told her I wanted her help in the future because I wasn't always able to see like she could see. I told her, with her help, the adult me would decide how to proceed with any future romance. As I imagined holding my inner child I cried like I hadn't cried before. I cried like a parent whose child is hurting and you're hurting because they are. I cried cleansing tears. I cried tears of love and acceptance that things were exactly as they were meant to be.
This was my first real step in moving forward. It took awhile to get there. Acknowledging my inner child was the key.

What's New?
In this months release note: A brief note on upgraded security of our mail, and a look at our new API.
Mail Security
There has been a lot of controversy about data security recently between surveillance, public security breaches and the infamous Heartbleed bug. Security is a high priority to us at D4H. We had some security updates in our last blog post, and this week we've more. When it comes to what tools and service providers we use, the first thing we examine is the security.
We're happy to announce that Sendgrid, who handle our email delivery and management, have increased their efforts to secure your data in transport, and will now use opportunistic encryption to further protect your mail, whether it be weekly briefings or from our Comms Module, you can rest assured the best effort is always made to keep your data safe.
Decisions API
We've been getting more and more requests to add features to our existing API from customers looking to build apps, or for other services trying to build on top of the Decisions platform. What we've realised is the best approach is to revamp the current API, and we're migrating it from PHP to NodeJS. This will allow us to provide a higher performant API, that we can also extend and improve at a higher pace. A lot of major companies have also been making this switch such as Walmart and Paypal, and after seeing the success they've had, it's made the decision to migrate that much easier. We look forward to having more details on this in our next engineering blog post.
Full Release Notes
- Product updates on Dashboard now linked to our new blog and website
- Fixed an issue with recurring on-call events
- Fixed a big on the equipment inspection filters that prevented it from filtering correctly
- Removed the member name from the reduced incident report
- Added member details to shipping reports
- Fixed an issue that generated repeated text in a fear audit report
- Allow user to specify batch ID for shipping report
- Added ability to delete officer from organization account
- Fixed UI issue in groups side bar where HTML tag wasn't closed properly
- Added Email export fix for large groups of recipients
- Added Wind miles per hour to Incident PDF
- Fixed an issue that would prevent an outbound SMS sending from the old communications system
- Added incident error message, that would indicate why an incident may not be able to save
- Weather alerts now update, instead of stacking up for longer alerts
As always, we hope these product updates prove useful and we look forward to answering any questions you may have.
John Brett,
[D4H] Decisions Lead Engineer

To choose the best vaporizer option you will need to analyze your own situation and figure out what you need in a vape pen. As humans, we are all different and we all have our own preferences, wants and needs. There are many models to choose from, they all look different and have varying functions and controls. Continue reading and we'll help break some things down for you.
When choosing a dry herb vaporizer, make sure you know the difference between Convection and Combustion Vapes. Convection vapes are the new, healthier way to smoke. Temperature control is also very important for those sensitive to smoke and vapors - some vaporizers come with a few temperature settings while other are completely customizable.
510 thread, pre-filled oil cartridges work with a wide variety of vapes from the slim pen batteries, to the SteamCloud Mini and box mods. For e juice and other liquids, use a 510 atomizer with a box mod. Battery power is more important for e liquid versus the skinny, pre-filled cartridges as the skinny cartridges don't draw much power from the vape battery.
The main difference when choosing between wax pens will be the type of coil being used which can range from quartz rods to ceramic pancake coils. Different wax coils offer different vapor experiences. Wax pens don't use much power so battery is not much of a concern, but newer models now have variable voltage controls to control the temperature to fine tune the experience.
The controls from mod to mod are usually very similar and they all allow you to adjust how much power is sent into the attached 510 atomizer. Specifically for e juice, you will need a vape with a lot of power to blow big clouds, and the box mods fit that. The skinny, pre-filled cartridges will work too, just keep the power output low or risk burning out the cartridge.
This is not the fanciest dry herb vaporizer, but when looking at what you get for the price, the Titan 2 is a solid option that gets the job done. You can adjust the temperature by a single degree from 200 to 428 degrees fahrenheit and the design means you can stand it up while loading and do not have to worry about it rolling off any surface. The display screen is fairly basic but it is still digital.
For anyone that uses the skinny, 510 cartridges that often come pre-filled, the SteamCloud Mini features a new, side-by-side design. Instead of attaching the top of a battery, with the Mini, the cartridge will sit right next to the battery, leaving you with a more discreet and portable vape pen. Plus the battery power and quality is very good and will last.
The Saber Vape Pen is arguably one of the best wax pens. The magnetic design is just one way this vape separates itself from other vapes - no more sticky threads, just sleek, magnetized vape parts. The Saber comes equipped with quartz and ceramic coils that deliver pure taste vapors, along with a high quality battery with variable voltage control, plus an auto-simmer function like no other.

The University and National Library University of Debrecen opened in 1918. The Library moved into its present place in 1932 after the library unit of the building had been completed. It provides location for more than 2 million volumes and welcomes hundreds of visitors. The collection included 100 000 volumes in 1932. Following 1935 the library experienced an expedite accession; in the final years of the WWII the book and journal collection of the Library of Debrecen University quadrupled.
Determinant moment in the history of the institution was receiving the task and right to legal deposit (1952), and in 1997 the library law strengthened its status as a National Library. As the second largest library in Hungary, we receive all nationally published books and periodicals, music documents and audio materials, CD-ROMs, and small publications. Due to the scantly locations, in 1987 the building of the former University Church was remodelled to house the periodical, music and manuscript collections of the Library.
Since January 1, 2001 the University and National Library of University of Debrecen has become an integrated institution under the direction of the Rector of the University. Under a unified management, all seven scientific library units serve a common goal to provide up-to-date access to information for all citizens of the University. Our Library undertakes multiple roles: as a public library with national legal deposit receives copies of all document types published in Hungary, as a national center of the National Document Supply System it receives and stores information about other libraries and provides interlibrary service nationally, and the Library also provides assistance to Hungarian university libraries in the neighbouring countries.
While the integrated University has multiple administrative centers located distant from one another, all faculties require their students and staff to use campus resources in disciplinary libraries. In order to meet these requirements the University invested in building two new libraries: the Social Sciences Library opened in 2002 serving primarily students and staff in law, economy, social sciences, and by the end of 2005 the Life Sciences Library had been completed.
The University and National Library of University of Debrecen maintains a collection of more than 6 million volumes including 6000 printed journals (1600 international periodicals), 15000 electronic journals and numerous electronic databases. It provides a comfortable environment and technologically modern facilities for studying and research for the university's 30000 students and 1700 teaching staff.

What Will Likely Move Markets This Week – Introduction
The most certain thing about the financial market is how uncertain it is. In the market, it is almost impossible to predict what will affect the market in the following day. If we did, everyone would be making a lot of money. For example, a few weeks ago, the week started in a normal way. No one expected Argentina to develop problems. On a Tuesday, the country's currency started falling, leading to a major sell-off in the main EM countries. In this article, I will highlight a few things that I expect will move the market this week.
UK Economic Data
Last week, the sterling was among the most volatile currencies. On Wednesday, it jumped after Germany and UK made concessions on the ongoing Brexit negotiations. On Friday, transcripts of the main negotiator for the EU showed that the EU was ready to make concessions. This lowered the risks of a no-Brexit deal. On Sunday, Boris Johnson, a conservative leader many hope will replace Theresa May wrote a scathing article criticizing the Chequers deal. Therefore, this week, traders will follow closely the ongoing in the UK about Brexit.
Today, the country will release important data such as the GDP, industrial production, trade balance, manufacturing production, and construction. On Tuesday, it will release the employment numbers and on Thursday, the BOE will release the interest rates decision. On Friday, Governor Carney will address the press on the interest rates decision. All this will make the sterling a major currency to trade this week.
The ECB will start its meeting on Wednesday. On Thursday, the officials will release the interest rates decision. In this meeting, the bank is not expected to raise interest rates but the officials are expected to show clarity on the monetary policy stand. For example, the bank will likely explain whether it is still committed to end QE in December and what it means by a summer rate hike.
Last week, the public hearings phase of the proposed tariffs by US on Chinese goods worth $267 billion ended. On Friday, the president announced that people should start preparing for these tariffs. This led to a detailed letter by Apple, which said that the additional tariffs will mean higher taxes to the residents. On Saturday, the US president asked Apple to consider manufacturing its products in the United States to avoid the tariffs. This came a few months after Apple's Chinese manufacturer, Foxxconn announced a new US plant. Therefore, traders should expect major market moves this week after the tariffs go to effect and as China retaliates.
Emerging Markets
In the past few weeks, the problems in the EM markets have increased. Turkey was the first EM country to develop problems when the rate of inflation increased to above 18%. This year, the Lira has dropped by more than 60% against the dollar. It was followed by Argentina, Indonesia, and South Africa. The latter is in recession and Argentina is waiting for the bailout money promised by the IMF. Last week, the Indonesian central bank was forced to raise interest rates as its currency fell to a 20-year low against the dollar.

Little monsters everywhere love a sweet treat. So today, we decided to combine the two and make Little Uglies Pops….
Group Project: Halloween Treats
It's group project time, and it is all about creating fun Halloween Treats. With each month, comes a new challenge that is presented to the design team. This month features projects for the upcoming holiday – Halloween. Join the design team, as we share a few fun ideas for {Halloween Treats}. We've included a full list of participating CSS designers:
Lori / Jaclyn / Jennifer / Laurie / Kim / Laura
Dana / Tracy / Elena / Audrey / Amber
Little Uglies Pops
We started with a Cookie Pop pan from Wilton – the confection gurus, that create all those shaped candy molds, and cake pans. Instead of filling our pans with cookie dough, we used white chocolate candy melts.
To create the candy pops, we used the following steps:
- We laid the stamps face up in the mold,
- Poured in the melted candy,
- Added the lollipop sticks and more melted candy to secure them
- Placed the pops in the freezer for 30 mins
- Removed the pops from the tray, and peeled the stamps out to reveal the cute ugly impression in each lollipop.
They were placed inside a food safe plastic bag, and tied closed with a ribbon bow and favor tag.
Little Uglies Pops Supply List:
- STAMPS: Little Uglies, Little Uglies Too, Taglines: Uglies
- CARDSTOCK: On the Catwalk Cream
- INK: Perfect Little Black Dress
- RIBBON: Orange You Fabulous, Orange/White/Black Twine
- SIMPLE CUTS: Favor Flags
- OTHER: Sandwich Bag, Lollipop Sticks, Cookie Pop Pan, Candy Melts (White)

The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series returns to Kansas Speedway this weekend for the second race of 2018 at the 1.5-mile oval. Sunday's Hollywood Casino 400 also happens to be the final race of the Round of 12, and after Chase Elliott and Aric Almirola won the first two races of the round, there are some big names facing a must-win situation this weekend.
Unfortunately for guys like Kyle Larson and Ryan Blaney who are in a desperate situation, a mile-and-a-half oval like Kansas is not the place to go if you need a win. The Big 3 of Kevin Harvick, Kyle Busch and Martin Truex Jr. have owned the 1.5-mile ovals this year, winning seven of the eight races thus far.
Yes, all of the big names from the top teams tend to excel at these intermediate ovals, but it is probably going to take some strategy or a lucky break for someone other than the Big 3 to end up in victory lane. Not surprisingly, this is one of the tracks where I recommend loading up your lineups with studs, even if it means using some of your final starts from certain guys in the Driver Group Game.
It is just as important to load up your lineups in Fantasy Live. No, there isn't a limit on how often you can use a driver, but stage points are huge, and the gap between the Big 3 and everyone else has been at its widest at the mile-and-a-half tracks. In addition to winning seven of the eight races, Truex, Harvick and Kyle Busch also ranked first, second and third in Top 5s earned in these races.
We still have races at Martinsville and Phoenix where you can get a little creative with your lineups to try to save starts or try to gain some ground, but Kansas is not a place to get cute. Stick with the studs this weekend.
Fantasy NASCAR Rankings
Kevin Harvick, #4 Jimmy Johns/Busch Beer, Stewart-Haas Racing
Martin Truex, Jr., #78 Furniture Row, Furniture Row Racing
Kyle Busch, #18 M&Ms, Joe Gibbs Racing
Kyle Larson, #42 CreditOne/DC Solar, Chip Ganassi Racing
5. Brad Keselowski, #2 Miller Lite/Discount Tires, Team Penske

The Crusaders have kept their unbeaten record in tack after beating the Ciefs in Fiji on Friday with 31-24.
It was again a great performance from the Super Rugby leaders as they showed again their dominance in the competition this year. The Chiefs had their changes but at the end of the game two poor lineouts stop them from stealing a draw out of the match.
The Chiefs led at the break with 17-13 which was a closely contested match as we expected between these to top teams in the competition.
With the late withdraw of Matt Todd the Crusaders scored three tries through Bedwell-Curtis, Havili and Funnel while they added two conversions and four penalties through the boot of Mo'unga.
The Chiefs replied with four tries of their own with Nnai-Williams, Lowe, Hames and Cruden going over the whitewash. Cruden boot let him down on the night and his general play was not as good as we used to and maybe the difference.
With this win the Crusaders took another four points on the log and 11 points clear of the second place New Zealand team.
The scorers:
For Chiefs:
Tries: Nanai-Williams, Lowe, Hames, Cruden
Cons: Cruden 2, McKenzie
For Crusaders:
Tries: Bedwell-Curtis, Havili, Funnell
Cons: Mo'unga 2
Pens: Mo'unga 4

No-Maintenance Animal Housing
We have been raising animals for many years, so we know what they like and what keeps them safe. We also know what makes taking care of them easier! We design and build all of our hutches right here in Virginia, so there's no middle man. Every outdoor hutch we sell is made with weatherproof wood, so you never have to paint them, but they have chew-proof blind corners on the inside to keep animals from eating the walls. There are no attached wooden floors, so you don't have to scoop or scrape them out. As you can see, we think maintenance is something to avoid if possible. Our hutches are built to last: we use 25-year shingles on the roofs, and 14-gauge wire on the floors, which is very thick and comfortable for the animals' feet. We have divided styles for keeping animals separated, and hutches with sliding trays underneath, so you can put them on a porch or deck. With so many styles to choose from, you are sure to find something both you and your animals will like! However, if you want something truly unique, we are happy to work with you on a custom design and build a hutch to your specifications. All hutches can be picked up at our Virginia farm, or we will deliver and unload any hutch smaller than 4' x 4' for $2 per mile one way, and there is a $20 minimum. For hutches that are 4' x 4' or larger, the charge is $3.50 per mile one way, (because we must bring four people to unload it, instead of two) and the minimum charge is $35. If you can pre-arrange to have two people waiting to help unload it, the charge will be $2 per mile one way.
If you have further questions, would like a price on a custom hutch, or want to place an order, please call us: (804) 556-3377
Bunny Hutches
Bunny Hutches With Barns 2.5' x 5' $239 3' x 5' $299 This is one of our most popular hutch styles. Plenty of room for a large breed or even two or three bunnies, it has a large enclosed barn for privacy and weather protection, as well as an outdoor run with a balcony where your pet can get out and enjoy the fresh air. The entire floor is commercial-grade galvanized wire, which allows all of the waste to drop through to the ground, keeping the rabbit's feet dry and comfy. All your rabbit needs to thrive in our mild Virginia Winters is a solid board to sit on to keep the wind off its stomach. This hutch is extremely sturdy, totally weatherproof, and built to last a lifetime! There is a wooden door on the back of the barn, plus a wire door in your choice of location and trim color (the top or either side, and red, blue, or purple) on the wire run. The opening between the two sections is rimmed with metal so it can't be chewed, and the corners on the inside are all chew-proof blind corners. The two sections can come apart for ease of transport, in case you don't drive a pickup truck. We can add a ramp door or other accessories, such as a feeder, water bottle, floor mats, sit boards, or even a bunny!
Double Hutch $395 This hutch is divided down the middle in both the barn and wire run areas, so the two animals can see one another, but each has its own living space with an enclosed barn and a wire run with a balcony. It is just like having two of our 2.5' x 5' hutches side-by-side: the same chewproof construction, quality materials, and available options. Perfect for a breeding pair, two bunnies who don't get along, etc. We can ramp doors, feeders, water bottles, floor mats, or other accessories.
Tall Bunny Hutches 2' x 3' $155 2' x 4' $201 2' x 4' Divided Double Hutch $229 Here is our basic bunny hutch, big enough for one or two rabbits. An excellent hutch at a fabulous price, and it's 100% weatherproof, unlike some "bargain" hutches you see in pet stores. No painting or staining required! All of the inside corners are chew-proof blind corners. The floor is made from 14-gauge galvanized wire, so all the droppings will fall right through, and you won't have to clean the hutch out! The top photo shows the 2' x 3' hutch with the bedroom panel option ($16 extra). The wooden panel is trimmed all the way up with metal, so the bunny can't chew it. This option provides more privacy, as well as protection from inclement weather. If you want to keep the hutch on a deck or porch, the 2' x 3' model can come with a slide-out plastic tray underneath for $69 more. The divided double hutch (lower picture) has a partition down the middle, and two doors. The doors on any hutch come in your choice of color (red, blue, or purple). We can also add extras such as water bottles (see "Bunny Hutch Accessories", below).
Bunny Hutch Accessories
Top-Fill Bottle $9.75 These are the best water bottles we have found. They work with a spring shut-off valve, not a leaky vacuum, so they don't backflush or constantly drip. Very easy to thaw in freezing weather, due to the short drinking stem. Attaches to the cage or hutch very securely, using the included spring and stand. The top flips up or screws off, whichever you prefer. Large 32-ounce capacity with ounce markings.
Automatic Feeder $15.00 Handy 7"-wide feeders hold several day's worth of pellets, making weekend trips less of a hassle. They have perforations on the bottom so the dust, or "fines" will sift out. If the feeder is purchased at the same time as a hutch, we will install the feeder at no extra charge. If purchased separately, we will provide you with mounting hardware and easy instructions.
Balcony $8.00 Bunnies love to be up high; it gives them a better view of their surroundings. Leaping also provides them with better exercise than just hopping around their cages. Many of our outdoor hutches come with balconies included, but we can also make one to custom-fit a hutch or indoor cage you already have.
Ramp Door $12.00 to $19.00 If you have placed your hutch in a playpen or fenced yard, these fold-down doors provide bunny with easy access to his food and water, or passage to his "room" to take a nap. Galvanized, 14-gauge wire in a tight pattern insures that this ramp is durable and comfortable to walk on.
Pet-icure Tile $4.25 Place in a high-traffic area of the rabbit hutch to help keep Bunny's nails blunt. Especially good for outdoor rabbits because they can lie on it to stay cool in the Summer. 11.5" x 11.5".
Sit Board $2.00 Outdoor rabbits need something solid to sit on in cold weather, to keep their stomachs warm. These wooden boards are untreated, and therefore safe to gnaw on. Don't place it in a corner, because the bunny might use it as a bathroom.
Dog Guard $15.00 to $32.00 An extra layer of wire, below the original floor, to prevent dogs or other wild animals from injuring the rabbit's feet. Sizes & prices vary, depending on the model of hutch you own.
Accessory Package $27.00 For any of our rabbit hutches. Includes an installed automatic feeder, a top-filling water bottle, a wooden sit board, and a chew block.

Poultry Coops
All-in-One Poultry Coops 4' x 4' $526 4' x 6' $593 These houses come with three nest boxes and two roost poles already installed, so they're all ready to keep your flock safe!There is space for 4 to 8 full-size birds or 6 to 12 bantams, or we can add a third roost pole to the 6-foot deep hutch, making it big enough for 6 to 12 full-size birds or 9 to 18 bantams. We usually like to place the coop inside a large pen and let the birds out during the day. At dusk they will all go inside and you can close and latch the door, making the hutch completely safe from predators. The 4-foot deep coop comes with two interior feeders already installed (a large one for food, and a smaller one for grit). The shingles are 25-year rated, and all of the wood is weatherproof, so there is no painting or staining necessary. And our hutches are designed so that the waste will drop through the galvanized wire floor, no scooping required! There is a large door on the front for the birds to go in and out, and also a door on the back so you can gather the eggs. Your hens will thrive and even lay eggs during our mild Virginia Winters, as long as you provide them with extra light. We also have ladders and other extras available (see "Poultry Coop Accessories", below).
Poultry Safehouses 2' x 3' $183 2.5' x 4' $321 4' x 4' $436 4' x 8' $684
These portable safehouses make an ideal predator-proof roosting spot for full-size chickens, bantams, and guineas, but we have also outfitted them for ducks, pigeons, quail, etc. The shingles are 25-year rated, and the wood is all weatherproof, so there is no painting or staining necessary. Our hutches are designed so that the waste will drop through the floor, eliminating the need to scoop or scrape them out. The wire floors and fronts keep out wild animals while ensuring adequate ventilation, which is a major problem with enclosed coops and coops with wooden floors. As long as you face the open side in the correct direction (we can help you determine this), the wind will come from the rear and the birds stay warm and protected. We usually like to let the hens roam around in a pen during the day, and at dusk the birds will all go inside the coop so you can close and latch the door to keep your flock safe from predators. The 8-foot wide house comes with a roost pole pre-installed. The 3- and 4-foot wide hutches are priced without any accessories. See "Poultry Coop Accessories, below.
Laying Units
3-Bay Laying House $155 3-Bay Layer with Cage $229
If you have a large flock, or just want to give the birds more room in the coop, you might want to consider an outdoor nesting unit. They are made of the same quality materials as all of our other housing units, keeping with our philosophy that "maintenance" is a dirty word. The eggs will stay out of the mud and dirt, and be at an easy height to reach. The basic unit provides a spot for your hens to lay their eggs. The layer/feeding station in the middle comes with a walled section underneath the nests that houses an included 12-lb. capacity feeder to keep the feed clean and dry. And the cage below the egg bays shown on the right is made from a tight, snake-proof pattern of galvanized wire, so it's perfect for brooding out young birds, putting a bad chicken in "time-out", or keeping a setting hen safe.
Poultry Coop Accessories
Ladder $15.00 - $17.00
These ladders are made from copper-treated lumber or Eastern Red Cedar and galvanized wire. They come in a variety of lengths, from 42" to 62" (custom orders are welcome). Lean them against laying boxes or coop entries to give the birds easy access. When dusk comes, the hens will march up the ladder and put themselves to bed.
Roost Pole $12.00
These natural wooden poles provide a comfortable roosting spot that chickens prefer over wooden dowels or milled lumber. We will gladly install a roost pole in any of our coops at the time of purchase at no charge for installation, or you can order one the length you need and install it in your coop at home.
Nesting Boxes
Fill these boxes with nesting material (straw, hay, or pine needles), add a few golf balls or wooden eggs (just to set the tone), and place them in your safehouse. The single box will be sufficient for 4 or fewer birds, while the double will service up to eight. If you have a small coop or a lot of birds, you might want to consider our freestanding laying units, above.
Single $12.00 Double $18.00
Grit and Oyster Shell
All birds need access to grit (small rocks) to grind up the food they eat, because they don't have stomachs. The granite grit that we carry comes in three sizes: for chicks (1 to 8 weeks of age), growing birds (8 to 15 weeks), or adults (15 weeks and up). Chick grit is best sprinkled over the feed like salt, but as the birds age you should offer the grit free-choice in a separate feeder (they don't eat very much, and will regulate themselves). Oyster shell is a natural form of calcium that you should give to your hens if you notice any thin, easily broken egg shells (do not offer to birds younger than 5 months).
2 lbs. $2.00 50 lbs. $12.50
Bin Feeders
Bin feeders can be secured in any of our poultry houses with no extra charge for installation, or you can take one home and install it yourself. They are unperforated, just right to hold mash, crumble, or pellet, and they come in two sizes. The 11" size holds about 5 pounds of feed, which will feed 10 birds for about 2 days, depending on size, breed, and age. The 3" size is an okay feeder for micro flocks, or fill it with grit or oyster shell for a larger flock.
11" $15.00 3" $13.50
Double Feeder (shown) $27.00
Hanging Feeders
These large-capacity feeders can be hung in your coop to help keep the feed clean and litter-free. Make sure that the bottom of the feeder is no more than shoulder-height for your shortest bird. Keep it out of the weather, as the lids are not designed to keep the feed dry, only to keep the hens from roosting on top of the feeder.
12 lb. Capacity $17.75 30 lb. $22.50
40 lb. $27.50 Lid for Any Size $4.25
One-Gallon Waterer $5.75
A good waterer at an excellent price. One gallon is about a day's worth of water for 6 hens, but obviously you wouldn't have to fill a larger one as often.
Top-Filling Waterers
A good choice for large numbers of birds. These quality waterers will last for a long time. The jar and base separate for ease of cleaning.
3-Gallon $33.75 5-Gallon $39.75
7-Gallon $46.75
Brooding Cages $39.00
You can brood chicks in a cardboard box and compost it when you're through, but if you want something a bit sturdier, these 18" X 30" cages are a wise choice. They have a generous, top-opening latchable door to thwart escapes, and can be placed in a mortar tub to prevent spills. Also good as a travel/transport cage, or a place to put sick or unruly birds.
Light Bulb Adapter $3.75
Plug these adapters into an extension cord and screw in a light bulb for brooding out chicks. Or use in your henhouse to give the birds 16 hours of light every day. This prompts the hens to lay more eggs in the Winter.
Quart Jars & Bases
This versatile feeding and watering system is inexpensive and easy to use. The waterer bases come in a small chick size, which is small enough so the chicks can't drown, and a larger base that makes it easier for growing birds to drink. The feeder base snaps apart for easy cleaning. The quart jars fit all three bases.
Quart Jar Only $2.00
Feeder Base $3.75
Either Waterer Base $2.00
12" Chick Feeders $3.75
These heavy-duty metal feeders will last through many clutches of chicks. This is what we use to hold chick starter. The lids slide off to fill the feeders, and keep the chicks from scratching through the feed and wasting it.
