One of the greatest titles we can have is "old friend."
We never appreciate how important old friends are until we are older.
The problem is we need to start our old friendships when we are young.

can cause us to neglect those friends.

we hope will call us "old friend" in the years to come.

Officials say Connecticut's bail system in need of major reforms
Published 5:27 pm, Tuesday, October 26, 2010
BRIDGEPORT -- Connecticut's bail bond system is out of control.
More than 17,000 accused felons in Connecticut have skipped out on their bail bonds. Rules that require bondsmen to collect a certain percentage of each bail bond are routinely ignored.
The list of dangerous felons who have been released on bail only to kill or harm someone else is like a who's who of criminal defendants in the state.
Selami Ozdemir, of West Haven, was bonded out on a Saturday in January and shot his wife to death the next day.
Darryl Crenshaw was bonded out while awaiting trial on kidnapping charges and then beat his girlfriend to death in July 2008.
Russell Peeler Jr. was let out of prison while awaiting a murder trial and ordered the murders of an 8-year-old Bridgeport boy and his mother in 1999.
n Eric Stiggle, awaiting trial for allegedly stabbing and kidnapping his wife in Bridgeport this year and leading police on a chase through three states, walked out of prison, where he was held on $1.3 million bond after giving a bail bondsman a letter claiming he has money in a bank account (he doesn't). Once out, he gave his wife a call. He was recaptured after a citywide manhunt.
Ostensibly Christopher DiMeo, awaiting trial for the murders of Fairfield jewelers Tim and Kim Donnelly, could walk out of prison tomorrow without spending a dime if a bail bondsman wanted to post his $5 million bond.
Bondsmen and state officials say the state's bail industry is not protecting the public. While dangerous felons walk free from prison, homeless drug addicts remain in their cells until their cases are disposed of.
"It's a circus, but it's a dangerous circus, a danger to the public," said Douglas Davenport, a veteran bail bondsman who does business across the state.
"There are probably hundreds of examples of people who were out on discounted bonds and then killed somebody," said bail bondsman Patrick Moynihan, who also operates statewide. "It happens once a month, but you don't know about it."
Lawmakers, criminal justice officials and bondsmen themselves have proposed reforms. So far, none have advanced in the state Legislature.
How the system works
In Connecticut there are two kinds of bail bondsmen. There is the dwindling list of bail bondsmen, now down to about 25, who use their own money to back their bonds and are overseen by the State Police. And then there is the majority, the surety bail bondsmen, whose bonds are backed by insurance companies and as agents of an insurance company are under the auspices of the state Insurance Commissioner.
There are currently 436 surety bail bondsmen in the state, more than the number in New York and New Jersey combined. Surety bail bondsmen pay premiums to insurance companies based on the number of bonds they post. In exchange the insurance companies guarantee their bonds up to a set amount. To become a surety bail bondsman, applicants must show they are backed by an insurance company, take a short course offered by private companies licensed by the state, then take an online exam. Applicants cannot have a felony record.
Police departments set the initial bonds on a defendant after they are arrested, but those bonds are reviewed when the defendants come to court days later. Judges have the ultimate authority to decide bond and can order a defendant held without bond, but that is rarely done. Instead, a judge will set the bond based on the recommendation of a state bail commissioner, who has interviewed the defendant, and following arguments from prosecutors and defense lawyers.
Under the regulations set by the insurance commissioner's office, bail bondsmen must charge their clients to post bonds for them. They are required to charge 10 percent of the first $5,000 of the bond and 7 percent of the remainder. They are required to charge that, but bail bondsmen, the insurance commissioner and legislators acknowledge that often does not occur.
Instead, most criminal defendants end up paying bondsmen 1 or 2 percent -- and sometimes nothing -- to get bonded out of even very high bonds. State law even allows bail bondsmen to accept promissory notes in lieu of payment. This discounting of bonds is called undercutting.
Bail bondsmen say they often get calls from potential clients telling them that another bail bondsman has offered to post the bond for a lower price and asking if they can beat that price. Police say it is common to find when they arrest a repeat offender a bail bondsman's card in his pocket.
"There are now probably 80 percent of bondsmen who routinely bond people out without collecting the full fee because of the market forces," said Moynihan. "They know if they don't do it, someone else will. They are either going to make a portion of what they should be making or they will make nothing."
He said he doesn't necessarily blame the bondsmen. "It's like if you have 10 beagles in a room and a bag of dog food in the middle of the room. They are all going to eat what they can and as much as they can."
"The whole system has really degenerated into an ineffective and sometime dangerous circus here because people are getting out for next to nothing with few if any co-signers," added Davenport, a bondsman since 1971. "The criminals are running the system, not us. And if the bondsman wants to eat, then he's got to join the fray because there is no way to write a legal bond in this state anymore. In many cases, people get arrested for punching their wives or whatever and five minutes later they are out but they are still a threat to the victim."
Some have lost licenses
There are no public records that detail this undercutting, and bail bondsmen privately acknowledge that when they report bonds they have posted to their insurance companies, they claim in their monthly reports that they charged the required percentage.
The idea of bonds is to ensure that defendants show on their court date; if they don't, the money their bondsman put up will be forfeited. But even that has been thwarted by state law.
Under the law a judge is required to order the bond forfeited if the defendant doesn't show up, but that forfeit is immediately stayed for six months. If the defendant either shows up or is captured within that six months, as most are, the surety loses no money. Within a year, they get to keep most of it.
According to the state Judicial Branch, there are 17,856 pending cases in the state in which criminal defendants failed to appear for their court cases while either free on bonds or on written promises to appear.
Insurance Commissioner Thomas Sullivan has done more than any other insurance commissioner to try to crack down on industry violators, but he admits he is barely making headway. Since 2008 he has suspended the licenses of three bail bondsmen, fined 36 and revoked the licenses of 43. Three of those were for undercutting and the rest were for various reasons including physical altercations with other bail bondsmen and not carrying the proper business licenses.
"Go over to the Bridgeport G.A. (geographical area court on Golden Hill Street) especially on a Monday morning at about 8:30, 9 o'clock and just walk around outside and tell me how many times you get approached by a bondsman outside," he said. "If I had my druthers and I was writing the law, I would require 100 percent of the premium due and payable at the time you are bonded out. It would seem to me from a public safety perspective, when a judge orders a defendant released on bond, the bond system is there for a reason."
`It's totally dangerous'
On May 30, police said Eric Stiggle, who was free on bond for allegedly previously beating his wife, confronted his wife at her mother's home on Wilson Street here.
Police said he forced his way into the home, then began choking her first with his hands and then with the cord from a cell phone charger. They said the victim bit Stiggle on the hand and managed to break free of him, but he grabbed scissors and began stabbing her over and over, telling her he intended to rape her.
Stiggle then grabbed his wife by her bloody arm and dragged her out of the apartment house, stopping to grab a bottle of rum on the way out. Once outside police said he shoved her into the back seat of her car and began driving away.
Ordered held on $1.3 million bail on attempted murder and kidnapping charges, Stiggle was bonded out from prison by local bail bondsman Brandon Wilson. Stiggle should have been required to pay Wilson more than $100,000 for the bond but instead Wilson agreed to post the bail after Stiggle gave him a letter from a lawyer stating that Stiggle had the money in a bank account. In fact, police said, the letter was phony; the lawyer on the letter had died a few years ago. But Stiggle was free and contacted his wife despite a protective order against doing so. Stiggle was recaptured by police.
"That shows the desperation of bail bondsmen," said Moynihan. "That somebody would get that letter from him and believe it probably thinking, `that's my whole pay for a year,' and take it because they weren't making any money anyway."
Bail bondsmen who try to do the right thing find not only that they are bucking the tide but actually put themselves in danger from other bail bondsmen and clients.
Jennifer McDowell, an agent for Aces Bail Bonds in Bridgeport, said she had been threatened by other bail bondsmen because she has been outspoken against those who undercut.
"They've threatened to kick my (expletive) and shoot out my car windows," she said.
Forced by state law to accept promissory notes, McDowell said, clients have threatened her when she tried to collect on those notes. "This is the most dangerous job I have had," added McDowell, who used to work in a prison.
Bridgeport State's Attorney John Smriga said the current system puts witnesses and victim in criminal cases in jeopardy.
"The current bond statute makes it possible for violent offenders to get out of jail with little financial risk to themselves, creating a serious risk that these individuals will not comply with court-ordered conditions of release endangering victims and witnesses or simply not returning to court," he said.
"It's totally dangerous and we have the dead bodies to prove it," state Rep. Michael Lawlor, D-East Haven, co-chair of the legislature's Judiciary Committee. "And it ends up costing at least tens of millions of dollars in unnecessary expenditures in the prison system."
`This is crazy'
Lawlor said those who pose a serious safety risk are let out and those that don't often remain behind bars.
"A lot of these homeless guys who get arrested, they are mentally ill, they have HIV, they are substance abusers and they get arrested and spend a month in jail because they can't post $2,000 bond," he said. "When they come into jail, the jail has to do detox and it's an extremely expensive process. And then a couple of months later the charges are dropped. Meanwhile, the guy who is threatening to kill his wife every 20 minutes and is friends with a bail bondsman is getting frequent flyer rates every time he is arrested. This is crazy -- he's the one who should be sitting in jail."
Lawlor has introduced bills five times in an effort to put controls on the bail bonds business. Each one has been shot down. The last bill would have required bondsmen to certify under oath on a form that they were charging the legal premium. If a bail bondsman filed a false certification, the insurance commissioner could suspend or revoke that bail bondsman's license and impose a penalty of up to $5,000.
"We got very close this year but on the last day of the session it got blocked," he lamented, even though he admits this year's bill was a slightly muted version. He said much of the opposition to bills that would affect bail bondsmen has come from the legislature's Black and Latino Caucus.
"Right now, it's a system that's filled with loopholes and vague language and unenforceable rules and, of course, these guys (bail bondsmen) have figured it out and know they can get away with it and they are getting away with it," he said. "And every time the Legislature tries to pass it, these guys go out and hire lobbyists who come in and say, `If this happens everyone will be in jail and we will bankrupt the state and it will be unfair to minorities.' "
State Rep. Charles "Don" Clemons Jr. D-Bridgeport is chairman of the Black and Latino Caucus. While he acknowledged that the caucus has blocked legislation that would reform the bail bonds business, he said he certainly doesn't want to see dangerous people getting out on little or no bonds.
"Bail bonds are a business, and I just don't think there should be too much regulation," he said. "Some of the bills were disingenuous and would affect small bail bondsmen who are just trying to earn a living."

Former World Cup winner Frank Leboeuf has labelled Milan forward Mario Balotelli as 'unmanageable' and 'a kind of poison for the group'.
The striker is a leading figure on the pitch for the Rossoneri this term and for the Italian national team, but has not impressed the former Chelsea defender.
"Balotelli is unmanageable, he is a kind of poison for the group," began Leboeuf to RMC Sport this week.
"On Wednesday I saw the match against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League and the authority of Seedorf has been damaged.
"He almost did not want to come off after the shoulder injury, the Coach was forced to almost reprimand him.
"I find this attitude very annoying, even for the Italian national team - he has a great talent, but he is difficult to insert into a group."

All the incidents occurred in October and November. One involved an 11-year-old boy who was punched or shoved.
The incidents in Borough Park and Crown Heights were investigated by the NYPD's Hate Crimes Unit, but determined not to be bias in nature.
The children were located recently by detectives as part of the ongoing investigation.
Detectives used school safety officers who had longstanding relationships with students to help locate the youths involved.

My older Dyson DC14 (the purple one) early model with a clutch on the beater bar belt needs a clutch replacement. The bar has been cleaned and there are no worn or damaged parts so I conclude that the clutch at the motor end of the belt needs to be replaced. I can find the part online but no instructions on how to disassemble the vacuum to get to and replace it. Dysons only advice is to give me the address and phone of the nearest service center.

The original belt on my upright Kenmore Progressive broke and I replaced it with the spare that was in the vacuum. The vacuum and spare belt are about 10 years old. Then the spare broke after one vacuuming session and there was a burning smell coming from the vacuum. I ordered new belts and replaced it with the new belt. It seems to be working fine with no smell. I checked the belt after I vacuumed the family room and although it was in tact, the belt was very hot. Is that normal? Should t

The Panasonic MC-V7515 has two belts. The local vacuum repair guy says he only has a part number for the drive belt, which is UB-9. How do I find a replacement for the other belt, the one which directly drives the beater bars? By the way, this vacuum has great suction, but otherwise is far inferior to my previous Panasonic vacuums. The cheaper models aren't a good buy--stick with the more expensive models.

WASHINGTON - For more Americans, being out of work has become a semi-permanent condition.
Nearly one-third of the unemployed nearly 4.5 million people have had no job for a year or more. That's a record high. Many are older workers who have found it especially hard to find jobs.
And economists say their prospects won't brighten much even after the economy starts to strengthen and hiring picks up. Even if they can find a job, it will likely pay far less than their old ones did.
The outlook is unlikely to improve on Friday, when the government issues its monthly jobs report. Economists predict it will show that employers added a net 56,000 jobs in September.
That's far fewer than needed to reduce unemployment. The unemployment rate is expected to remain 9.1 percent for a third straight month.
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke last week called long-term unemployment a "national crisis" and said it should be one of Congress' top priorities.
When people are out of work for a year or more, their skills often decline. Their professional networks shrink. Companies hesitate to hire them. The problem feeds on itself.
"It's a serious threat," said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics. "A growing proportion of the labor force is becoming disenfranchised."
Long-term unemployment sets this recession and weak recovery apart from any other period since the Great Depression. Though the economy has endured "jobless recoveries" before, in no previous recovery has such a high proportion of the unemployed been out of work this long.
Labor Department figures show that for roughly the past year and a half, one in three of the unemployed have been without a job for at least a year. That's more than double the previous peak after the 1981-82 recession.
Businesses would have to start hiring much faster before a larger proportion of the long-term unemployed would find work. Many employers see them as riskier than other potential hires. Some might need additional training. Companies aren't likely to take such risks until the economy shows consistent strength.
Brian Wedding, a roofing contractor based in Baton Rouge, La., acknowledges that he spends more time evaluating job applicants who have been unemployed for long periods.
"A flag's going to come up, for sure," says Wedding, CEO of Jasper Contractors, which employs about 800 at nine locations nationwide. "We'll have to dig a little deeper into what's going on."

For selection of transformed E. coli, LB plates containing 50/~g Ap/ml were used. To make TB (10 mM Pipes/55 mM MnCI2/15 mM CaC12/250mM KCI), all the components except for MnCI 2 were mixed and the pH was adjusted to 6.7 with KOH. Then, MnCI 2 was dissolved, the solution was sterilized by filtration through a preripsed 0.45 pm filter unit and stored at 4°C. All salts were added as solids. Frozen stock (in LB/7~o DMSO) DH5 cells were thawed, streaked on an LB agar plate, and cultured overnight at 37°C. About ten to twelve large (2-3 mm in diameter) colonies were isolated with a plastic loop, inoculated to 250 ml of SOB medium in a 2-liter flask, and grown to an A6o o of 0.6 at 18°C, with vigorous shaking (200-250 rpm). The flask was removed from the incubator and placed on ice for 10 min. The culture was transferred to a 500ml centrifuge bottle and spun at 2500 xg . 3~00 rpm in Beckmann J-6B centrifuge) for 10 min at 4°C. The pellet was resuspended in 80ml of ice-cold TB, incubated in an ice bath for 10 min, and spun down as above. The cell pellet was gently resuspended in 20 ml of TB, and DMSO was added with gentle swirling to a final concentration of 7~o. After incubating in an ice bath for 10 min, the cell suspension was dispensed by 1-2 ml into tissue-culture cell-freezing tubes and immediately chilled by immersion in liquid nitrogen. The frozen competent cells were stored in liquid nitrogen for at least one month without a detectable loss of competence. (b) Standard protocol for SEM transformation A tube of competent cells was thawed at room temperature, dispensed by 200/~1 into 15 ml polypropylene tubes (Greiner, F.R.G.) and placed in an ice bath. Glass tubes should not be used since they largely decrease (tenfold less) tlae competence. Usually, 1-5/~1 of the plasmid zeMtion was added to each tube, and the cells were incubated in an ice bath for 30 min. They were then heat-pulsed without agitation at 42°C for 30 s and transferred to an ice bath. After 0.8 ml of SOC was added, the tubes were placed in a 37 °C incubator and shaken vigorously for 1 h. A desired portion of the mixture was tranferred into a 5 ml polypropylene or glass tube, mixed with 3 ml of melted LB soft agar preincubated at 47°C, and poured on LB plates containing 50 #g Ap/ml.

Faculty Members React to Rewards and Incentives Report
Posted: March 26, 2002 at 1:00 am, Last Updated: November 30, -0001 at 12:00 am
George Mason faculty members gathered yesterday during an open forum to respond to the Faculty Rewards and Incentives report produced by a Board of Visitors ad-hoc committee. Discussion primarily revolved around the balance between teaching and research in the tenure process, and the future of adjunct, contract, and tenure-line faculty at the university.
Several speakers, including Mack Holt, director of the Honors Program in General Education, argued against creating separate tenure tracks for teaching and research. "A university is a place to create knowledge, and those who create knowledge through research are in the best position to profess it," Holt said.
Opposing views were also shared on how adjunct faculty members are compensated, how many adjunct faculty should be employed by the university compared to contract faculty, and the process by which faculty members are promoted to administrative positions.
The draft report contains a series of proposals, including a tuition benefit for dependents of all faculty members, six concepts for fixed-term faculty, seven proposals for adjunct faculty, a proposal for discussions on how to award tenure for excellence in teaching and competence in research, and several Faculty Handbook modifications.
Provost Peter Stearns will lead a discussion for all full-time faculty members regarding promotion and tenure at George Mason tomorrow from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. in Mason Hall, Room D3. Stearns will present his reflections on the current policies and the future of tenure at Mason.

How "plugged-in" are your kids?
Do your kids have their own tech devices e.g. cellphones, laptops? How much time do they spend on them? What are their privileges like?
DS1 has a cell phone. It is ath GZ1 Boulder - the shock proof, waterproof military spec phone. he does NOT have internet. He is 13yo. He got it last year because he went back to the east coast for 21 days (we live on the west coast) for National Jamboree. He used it all of 4 times to call home @@ LOL and 3 of the times were me calling his Patrol leader saying, "If Mr. Barr is alive, tell him to call his Mommy" He usues it ocassionally, the scouts call him on it and his Antler's program mentor texts them remindres on meeting nights. Other than that, it sits on his shelf.
He also has a REALLY NICE zune (microsoft's version of the iPod) that was his Dad's who just HAD to upgrade his @@ uggg...boys and thir toys. He uses it almost daily while he doesschool work to block out the house sounds and zone out. He is NOT allowed to live with it plugged in all the time, can't take it frocery shopping, church, scouts etc.
The younger two 10 yo and 8 yo each have $20 generic MP3 players. They dont havea ton of songs on them so they don't use them a whole lot. I will probably get Ds2 a refurb zune for his birthday.
DS1 & DS2 also both have used hand-me-down computers in their rooms but neither has internet service.
Jinx - Homeschooling Scout & Karate butt-kicking Mom to Star Scout Ian 1/98, Scout Sean 9/00, Brownie Heidi 4/03. Police wife to Joe and Alpha to my fur baby German Shepherd Spazz.
No, they do not have their own computers or cell phones. We did let our 18 yr old have her own cell as her fiance is paying for it.
I actually get this question a lot! My boys are (almost) 10 and (just turned) 7 so they are right on the cusp of those techi ages....My boys have their own gaming systems (DS, Playstation, Nintendo, Wii) and they have their own TV and VCR, they have their own computer (tho its broken right now)....I'd say they spend the most of their time gaming - but are really good about wanting physical activity to go with it...like they still ask to go play outside everyday. My boys dont go anywhere without either my DH or I so I don't feel they need their own cell phones. We have 2 ipod's but use them as a family.....I am not one of those mom's who feels the need to limit these things as of yet....some days I'll knock on their door to check if they are still breathing in there...lol...but those days are few and far between...I guess if they started locking themselves away from the world and didn't care to do things as a family or if they didn't keep active and healthy otherwise, then I'd start limiting access. But we use the Wii as a form of "gym" class and for developing balance and coordination. And if the kids don't do their chores or finish school work, they will have restrictions in place...or if they fight over a game or don't win/lose graciously then they could loose a game for a while...but otherwise, we leave them to it.
I am not extrimily strict but DS gets so focused all he wants to do is play the DS.
No kid owned computers and the only time my DS is on mine it's for school. He really isn't all that interested in the computers. I do plan to teach him how to do research on the computer on his own when he is ready. He already gets the concept of "googling" things and will ask me to google stuff for him lol.
Mine only have vsmiles, which they rarely play. They are allowed to use my laptop under supervision on a kid friendly browser.
My oldest son is 8 and has no need for a cell phone (and certainly none of the younger ones do, either!) since we wait for him while he's at martial arts practice or CCD, and elsewhere he is always with one of us parents.
I have uploaded several kids' educational computer games to my old laptop but it is still on the computer desk in the dining room. My 4-year-old rarely plays on it, but my 8-year-old usually plays half an hour of "fun" computer time (usually on the bionicle website, sometimes flipping through the lego website looking at new sets) about 3-4 times a week, and after that he's allowed to play half an hour of educational computer time (though he only does that a couple of times a week, too).
My kids also are allowed half an hour of video game time per day, a right which they exercise almost every single day (Sundays are video-game-free, though!). Sometimes the 8- and 4-year-olds will play together (and sometimes even include their 2-year-old brother, though he mostly just stands there waving the controller around lol) and sometimes they will play their time separately. Sometimes we will play Wii sports together as a family; even my husband and I will play (that's always fun!). The gaming systems are family-owned, though, and located in the living room.
My kids do not have TVs in their bedrooms; there is no need. They only spend time up there when they are trying to get away from their little brothers because they want to play legos or bionicles, or when they are sleeping! :P
My 5 year old has a VReader --- like an e-reader but for little kids. It has comprehension and reading games to go with the books on it too! He also uses the desktop to play educational games like Jumpstart or PBS kids. He plays Jumpstart for a couple of hours at a time. It's totally educational and he's doing the K level right now and he starts K in the fall. He's completed the game already and I have him doing it again to make sure he knows the info. We rarely watch tv. The 3 yo really doesn't have the attention span to do anything like that. She plays. My kids have to earn points with good behavior and chores and then use that for tv and computer time.
My DD is 4, so no cell, and won't for many years to come :) But she does use my Laptop and iPad through out the day. In moderation.
My son is 3 and is a little techie for sure! He doesn't have his own computer, but he does use the family desk top and has his own games. He uses my iPod all the time (has since he was 2). He has an iXL and will most likely get a DS for Christmas. My kid loves anything high tech and is already asking for an iPad.
That being said, his FAVORITE thing to do is to read. He loves books (we are already started on chapter books). He's very active. I really limit TV time with him. But I'm not so hard about computer time. He gets about an hour a day on the computer (although he doesn't asks for the computer every day). He gets the iPod throught the day for 15 or 20 minutes at a time.
DS(7) just got a Nintendo DSiXL for reward for meeting his reading goal. The family got a Nintendo Wii for Christmas. I got the Wii Fit in which I need to start back using. I am going to incorporate some exercise(PE) into our school next year for sure. DD(5) plays on educational websites such as PBS kids, starfall, nickjrboost, and zoodles a couple of times a week. DS(7) was really bad at first with the Wii and that's all he wanted to do so I def limited his time until he figured out that he needed to do other things as well like being physically active. DS(2) like another mentioned plays along with DS and DD waving the controller around THINKING that he is playing. He loves Mario Kart and feels like a big kid with the olders. I love it when they are all 3 playing with no bickering backa nd to. We have one TV which is in the living room and we have a laptop and a desktop computer. The desktop computer is used for the educational websites and online games. We've recently discovered the yahoo games.

|Effects of non-tracking solar collector orientation on energy production : photovoltaic systems
|Toikka, Tauno
|Abstract: This Master's thesis proposes a new method for calculating the optimum tilt and orientation angle of a fitted solar collector. In addition to using geographical data, this method takes into account the radiation data and weather statistics of prospective locations. This makes the calculations valid not only for certain latitudes, but also for certain radiation and weather conditions. Calculations were done by estimating the energy production of a given solar array using a sequence of different tilt angles and orientation angles. Special attention was given to shaded solar arrays and arrays made up of photovoltaic modules. Specific radiation and weather data was used for both locations. Also, the different attributes of different phovoltaic modules were taken into consideration. The proposed method is illustrated with two examples. Two solar arrays in two different locations were chosen: one in Southern Finland in Helsinki (60.12 deg. N, 24.57 deg. E), and the other in Central Finland in Viitasaari (63.07 deg. N, 25.68 deg. E). The calculations for the solar array in Helsinki, which is in planning stage, take into account the shading caused by row installation. Calculations were made for c-Si PV modules. The optimum tilt angle was calculated as 28.6 deg. and the optimum orientation as 0.1 deg. from south to west. The array in Viitasaari is an existing one, and the calculated optimum tilt and orientation angles were compared to the actual angles used at the location.

Nakia Jones, a police officer working in Cleveland, Ohio, had some harsh, much-needed words for her colleagues following the deaths of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile in police shootings.
Jones posted a video on Facebook that has gone viral, fuming at police officers who have failed at what they promised when they initially took their oaths.
In the video, she details her decision to work in a predominantly African-American community, speaking about wanting to be a force of change in a community similar to where she grew up. As the only female, African-American officer in her precinct, she felt the responsibility of the difficult choices she made every single day.
She then turns to white colleagues performing the same job as her: "If you are white, and you're working in a black community, and you are racist, you need to be ashamed of yourself."
"How dare you stand next to me in the same uniform and murder somebody. How dare you!"
She speaks the blunt, unequivocal truth: "Why don't we just keep it real? If you're that officer that knows good and well you got a God complex and you're afraid of people that don't look like you, you have no business in that uniform."
She concludes by stating that if an officer is unable to overcome their personal biases or prejudices, they need to "take that uniform off and put the KKK hoodie on."
Jones's video should be mandatory viewing for all officers—the deaths of African-Americans due to police shootings cannot continue to go unchecked and unchanged.

Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday
We only raid between those hours.
Who we are:
We are Retribution 8/8H of Alleria, on Alliance side. We are a core of 6 friends looking to add more to our core for the rest of cata and into MoP. We hold top 200 fastest recorded kills, top 30 world player rankings, etc etc. We are a serious team that is very good.
What we're looking for:
Point blank we are looking for outstanding players. I'm sure every guild says this but we want players like us: we are always on time, we always end on time. We have wives, jobs, lives, but we like playing specifically with the team we have - shooting the shit - and every once in a while getting frustrated and learning new strats or ways to do things. We pride ourselves on execution, developing strats and carrying them out perfectly. We will only retain solid players that do exactly what they meant to do. Real life and mistakes happen but not often and definitely not cumulatively. What you get from us are good players and what we want are good players.
Top priority for recruitment: Demo Warlock

Exams are finally over, so now I can again breathe again and do things that I like. I can't wait to watch my favorite series, play games, write, spend time with my friends and PARTY! I really missed partying.
In this post I wanted to show you Essie nail polishes that my sister and I own. At first I wasn't head over hells about them, because they were on every blog, but when I got first one as a present and tried it they became one of my favorites. Apllying them is easy and brush is just the right size. I would say that their price is suitable; according to quality.
* Fiji, Lovie dovie, Exotic liras, Forever yummy
I also wanted to show you my manicure. I used Essie- Fiji and Essence glitters for nails. I added some princess stickers- #crown to complete the look. I love how it turned out, even tough my nails are not long.
And one more thing: here's a picture of an outfit that I wore today. The other day I have bought a new tee. I really love the combination of black and white, it's so classic.
Today I really wanted to wear this thick scarf around my neck, but it didn't work out really well because this tee is too sporty, so I decided to experiment a bit and I tied it around my waist.
Lips? They are red. I think that I will use red lipstick more often.
* wearing: tee, bracelet-Tally Weijl
That's all for today.
We type soon.

Alternative Certification (AC) is an "alternate" pathway to teach certification that is different than the traditional route and only available to fill critical need and shortage areas in West Virginia public schools. School districts with approved AC programs may offer employment to eligible individuals for positions that have been posted at least twice (for a minimal ten-day period) and for which no fully certified applicant has applied. Candidates accepted into the district's approved Alternative Certification program hold an alternative teaching certificate while completing the program of study through Marshall University. Upon successful completion of the program, assessment and evaluation, candidates may be recommended for an initial teaching certificate by the school district. A partnership with the school district will include Regional Education Service Agency 5 (RESA 5), Marshall University, and the West Virginia Department of Education, all under the supervision of the West Virginia Board of Education.
In the 'Document' section of the 'Alternative Certification' division on the RESA 5 website, you will find further information regarding the Alternative Certification proposals for General Education and Special Education, candidate eligibility requirements, and timelines. Please remember that applying for either program begins at the school district as they will analyze candidate qualifications for endorsement(s) sought which correlate with the position/subject area where there is a teacher shortage. School districts must confirm candidate eligibility and make a formal offer of employment to the candidate for the posted position. The applicant and school district will then apply to the WVDE for an Alternative Teaching Certificate. The list of qualifications for candidate eligibility are listed in the FAQ document, as well as in the brochures and proposal documents.

Flight Training and Aircraft Rental
Published on Oct 24, 2016
5 November 2016
Debert Flight Centre will be at CYZX to provide pilot check outs and sight seeing flights. Pending demand we may have two aircraft and two instructors for two solid days! Flights will start at 10 am.
To book a flight call at 902-662-2228. The cost per hour is $165 for renting the aircraft and $35 for the instructor. If a renter needs to do any remedial training, it must take place at Debert. After the Nov 5th the Cessna 172 aircraft will be parked in Greenwood at Annapolis Valley Regional Air Park available for rent by pilots who have completed the check ride.
Flight instructors will bring as much of the material they can that is required to convert a military pilot license to civilian. Call 902-662-2228 to discuss with the instructors. See FLIGHT TRAINING below.
GROUND SCHOOL for Private Pilot License
Ground school will be run from the aviation museum on Tuesday and Thursdays from 7-10. The cost will be $300/ student. This is planned to start mid November so call 902-662-2228 to book your seat.
Debert Flight Centre can not at this time do private pilot training or conversions at Greenwood. Any one interested in getting a license can come for a sight seeing flight. This training can be booked in Debert for now. Applications to provide flight training at CYZX are underway but no proposed start date is available so far. As more info on Greenwood start date is available we will let you know.
Concept of Design - Hangers
Published on Jun 15, 2016
Below is a conceptual drawing of what is proposed for Greenwood. It shows our ramp, fueling system, hangers and the office/ reception on front of hanger 1. For more images go to Project Page
Two Hangers will each have 3 bays that are 60 x 50 feet with doors (50 foot wide) opening to the area between hangers. Aircraft would taxi out the 65 foot space between hangers to the ramp. The ramp is about 2 acres so lots of room out there. This will fully utilize the south portion of our ramp.
The T hanger option was about the same cost per aircraft as putting two aircraft in the above bay. The above bays will handle from 2 to 4 single engine aircraft and have the flexibility to hold larger aircraft. They also have the flexibility to price differently for varying sizes of aircraft. For these reasons we are not pursuing the T Hanger option at this time. However the T hanger option for 8 aircraft would fit nicely on the west end of our ramp if demand supported it and funds were available.
It is estimate that we are $100,000 to $200,000 short of funds to complete the above. We will look for additional sources of funds or delete one hanger bay to come in budget.
There will be a general information meeting to discuss these plans over the next two or three weeks.

An MP has demanded answers after figures revealed the number of times the M6 has been shut in Lancashire and Cumbria has rocketed.
The motorway was closed for 24 hours in 2010 but more than 133 hours last year. And it took more than three times as long to re-open the M6.
John Woodcock, the Labour MP for Furness in South Cumbria, obtained the figures through a parliamentary question and has written to Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin for an explantion as to why serious accidents and closures had "risen spectacularly".

Myself and my husband along with my parents, my son and his wife and our grandson had a wonderful time at the beach. This Is great home on the coast. We caught right the back door. We love st augustine Thanks for sharing your home.
We stayed here for a family vacation and it was great. Location was perfect - very close to St. Augustine. Covered deck with gates and rails was perfect for the twin toddler grandchildren. View from the back was awesome. It was practically an interstate for dolphins. Would definitely use Vacation Rental Pros again.
relaxing. convenient. enjoyable, fun, great for the price.
I loved the covered back porch overlooking the ocean. We saw dolphins and watched ships in the distance, got to see an awesome moon rise and enjoyed our week immensely. The outside shower is amazing with hot water and a gorgeous view of the ocean. The master bedroom has no privacy with shutters that open to the living room, A1A is very loud and there are lots of stairs, but everything else was amazing.
This house is a great stay. It's not the fanciest but was clean, well outfitted with cooking gear, towels, chairs, fishing poles, boogie boards, kids toys, etc and the location is without compare. The views from the living room are great- even from the couch you can see the ocean. The porch/ boardwalk was great as well. You didn't even have to hit the beach to be at the beach. It was a little tight space wise with 6 adults and two small children but we definitely made it work- even the one day we got rained out entirely. The downstairs/garage is great for an extra sleeping area- it's not fancy but after 10 hours of sunny beach it was cold and quiet so I thought it was great. There is an extra fridge downstairs (accessible from porch) which was great for drinks and we didn't have to go in the main house all wet and beachy. Hint: bring a chrome cast or DVDs because the cable is limited. Still, if you are going to the beach to watch TV you are on the wrong vacation. This is a house for Dolphins, a close and pretty beach, and easy access to St. Augustine. Anyway- good time, good house in the best possible sense of Florida beach bungalow. A little small but cozy, functional, and friendly.
Had a very relaxing week. Great location. Easy drive to Vilano and St Augustine. Close to very good restaurant's. Do not miss Caps. Great stretch of Beach not crowded at all. Wonderful for walking. Watched sunrise and dolphins every morning on a well equipped covered deck. Only problem was that the wireles router died but was promptly fixed by the efficient staff. A lightening surged knocked out the HDTV but we were not watching a lot of TV anyway. Overall an excellent experience. The downstairs bathroom and bedroom is in the garage and comfortable. The people there have to go outside and up stairs to get to the main area. The kids did not care
This rental is a great beach bungalow. The deck and proximity to the ocean is fantastic. The house needs to be updated, such as the couch, the appliances and some repairs and deep cleaning. However, the beds are comfortable and it's a very dog friendly, private, and relaxing rental.
Property was small, but well set up. It was clean and neat. The deck was especially nice with a good barbecue pit.
The house has a perfect porch and it's proximity to the beach is wonderful. The house itself needs some updating. Living room couch is very uncomfortable and the white pillows dirty. Appliances could also be updated. Loved it's location to St Augustine. Property managers took care of any problems we had within a day .
Location could not be better, close to St Augustine and Jacksonville . The beach is beautiful and the deck and walk over are where we spent most of our time. The common living area needs some updating. Living area furniture less than comfortable and not clean. The stove/oven combo out dated and at least 25 degrees off in the oven . Bunk bed room fine for small kids but not for older ones. All else fine (plan on bottled water). TV's in bed rooms just for video. enjoyed being at the beach even with the miss steps.
My 3 sisters and I rented Turtle Dunes for my mom's 70th birthday celebration. We met there from various states. The house was just perfect for us....clean, well stocked kitchen, great location....fabulous porch looking out over the ocean.
The location and proximity to the beach is outstanding, the view from the back porch is like standing in the ocean.
We had a blast at Turtle Dunes. The place is a beach bungalow. It could use some updating. There is no tub in the unit and you have to go outside to access the downstairs bedroom. The view and the closeness to the water makes up for any short comings the place has. We would gladly stay there again.
As a repeat renter of Turtle Dunes....I love this place! Searched this area for hours first time renting to accommodate all our/my needs. Nice large covered deck overlooking the beach with fewest number of stairs(bad knees), I found it all here! There were days I didn't/couldn't deal with the stairs, this didn't stop me from watching my family enjoy the surf and sand while taking in the ocean breeze in the shade. I spend majority of my week on this porch, very disappointed it had been neglected (green algae build up under canopy, so disgusting I almost cleared the deck and cleaned it myself). Cozy house with comfortable beds, but please get rid of that 's uncomfortable and filthy, I don't sit on it and cover it for my family to use. And for the cost of cleaning fee....place could have been cleaner, not to my standards (needs a deep cleaning). Although great having new septic/drain field...needs to be mowed, not appealing upon arrival to see grass knee high (nor to potential 1st time renters) oh....and it could use a few large trash cans with lids...and recycle bins. Always a pleasure speaking to Linda Mann @ VRP ....she's goes above and beyond to make sure our vacay is the best...thanks Linda! Hopefully this charming little place gets the TLC that it deserves so we can come back next year....fortunately I live close enough to check it out before renting... and I will! I love this place ....please take care of it!
Except for the weather, it was most enjoyable including the wonderful view. The sofa was very attractive until you sat on it. Generally, it was like sitting on a rack. Need larger cushions. We will return and hopefully the sofa situation has changed.
Our girls' getaway at Turtle Dunes was fantastic-- beautiful beach and a comfortable house to enjoy. Enjoyed the front porch with both covered and open areas. Kitchen was nicely outfitted. The enclosed outdoor hot/cold shower was an unexpected bonus! Location 15 minutes from St. A , easy for sightseeing and shopping, lunch or dinner out. Really was a wonderful spot, and we plan to return! Rental agency was quick to respond to questions before our trip; all perfect while we were there.
Our stay was relaxing, at the Dunes we were right on the water!
This was the cleanest beach house we have ever rented. I usually spent the first day cleaning but it was spotless. If I had to complain, it would be about the sofa which was somewhat soiled and not very comfortable. Everything else was great; well stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. Our son came down for a week and loved the apartment on the first floor. The rental company responded to our requests very quickly. We stayed in the house for over a month but never got to the point where the view was taken for granted.
The property was small. The house had a strange smell to it. The hot water ran out very quickly. The beach front location was fantastic.
Whether you are inside the rental or outside on the deck, the panoramic view is superb!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Turtle Dunes. The home was well maintained, fully stocked and comfortable with amazing ocean views from inside and out. The covered deck is spacious with plenty of seating and a good size sunning area. Best of all is the enclosed outdoor shower. From the deck, we saw a daily sunrise, dolphins, a steady stream of monarch butterflies and birds. The management company was stellar! They get my top rating for bringing over a key late at night after I accidently locked the door on my way to the deck. I would definitely recommend this unit and the rental agency. The only drawback was having double beds instead of queen-size for our guests, but it didn't dampen our wonderful vacation.
The reason for our stay was to make my attending the Mayo Clinic at least seem not so stressful. The stay on the beach was incredible! Enough can't be said about the location which is very close to excellent restaurants like the Reef, and Caps. Both were great for lunch and dinner. Publix is only about a 10 min drive and they have all the beach accessories like flip flops, great beach wear etc if needed. St. Aug. is only ten mins as well. The views form the kitchen and livingroom are the best! The house is the most stocked house we have ever stayed in for a vacation rental. bogey boards, books for kids, gas grill (must fill tank at Publix $18), many pots and pans etc. There is only one full bath and although it does not have a tub, the shower is large enough to have an adult shower a small child together. the deck is shaded from sun and light rain, and also has sun at the end. The deck is large enough for kids to play and it is gated all around so I would bring my grandson next time who is 3. The master has a small half bath for those night trips to the bathroom, but if you are a little round you may not be able to close the door when inside. The overall score of three was based on the furniture being a little too soiled, and the bathroom being so very tiny in the master. Other than that it was a very nice experience.
Great place. It had everything we needed and more than we expected.
Although this was not the original property that we rented it still met most of our needs. WiFi did not work at all in the house, therefore I did not get the last minute emails that were sent. I've rented other houses in Florida and the beds were always made, I called twice thinking we had no sheets and was told that someone would call, no one ever did. Finally the third call and the girl said check the closets, we found them tucked in corners of the closets(not very visual). I wished there was something at the house as a guide of what was expected of us. There were kids videos still in the wrapper (could we use those?), things like that we didn't know if we were able to use. Overall our family had a great time, we saw dolphins off the deck, went searching for crabs at night, shopped at St. Augustine, and fed the dolphins at Marineland.
