Complete Guide For Solar Power Nunavut 2019
Congratulations! You've found the ultimate guide for going solar in Nunavut!
Nunavut is currently ranked the #12 province in the country for installing a solar power system, scoring lower than most other provinces because of high installation costs, low access to installers, and few incentive programs.
This page contains all available information about installing solar in Nunavut including solar incentives, regional geography, electrical utilities, and access to solar, as of 2019.
You can read from top to bottom, or skip to your preferred section by clicking on it below:
Overall Solar Rating
We've ranked Nunavut as being Canada's second worst province/territory for solar power in 2019. Nunavut scores lower than most other provinces because so few installation companies service the area causing installation costs to be high. However, Nunavut does receive a fair bit of sunlight and has among the highest electricity costs in the country.
Curious to see how and why we rank the provinces the way we do? Check out the Solar Rankings Page to find out more.
Basic System Information
When thinking about solar power, the first questions that often come to a person's mind are:
- "How big does my solar system need to be?"
- "Can I completely offset my electricity usage?"
- "How much will it cost?"
This section is intended to answer these basic questions before going into the details about installing solar in Nunavut.
Sizing Your System
Determining the size of system you need is as simple as knowing how much energy you use during the course of a year. Your monthly Qulliq Energy Power Bill will show your usage (in kWh) similar to the photo below:
You'll need to figure out how much energy you use in a year by adding up the amount shown for 12 consecutive months. Note that taking one month and multiplying by 12 won't work because energy use fluctuates depending on the season.
After you know how much energy you use, you can easily calculate the size of the solar power system that you'll need by using the following equation:
Size of system needed (in kW) = yearly energy use (in kWh) / 1,092h
(where 1,092h equals the annual average equivalent of full sunlight hours in Nunavut)
So let's pretend you added up your power bills and determined that you use 10,000kWh over the course of a year, you would then do the above calculation and determine that you need a 9.16kW solar panel system!
10,000kWh / 1,092h = 9.16kW
System Location
Now that you know the size of your system, you'll want to determine the best place to put it. Most residential homeowners in Nunavut put the solar panels on their roof, while most rural homeowners put them on the roof of their house, shop, or on the ground in their yard.
If you're putting solar panels on your roof, you should know:
- A south facing roof is best, east and west facing are good, north facing is just OK
- Output on panels are guaranteed for 25 years, so you may need to replace your shingles (or entire roof) before installing
- If you're concerned about snow, know that roof mounted panels are harder to clean off
- Your roof's pitch (slope) is not the most optimal angle for solar production
If you're putting solar panels on the ground, you should know:
- These systems are more expensive upfront due to piling requirements, mounting materials, and power line trenching…
- … But are cheaper in the long term because they are more efficient (see next point)
- They can be easily placed to avoid shading, to the optimal direction (south), and to the optimal angle (~45°)
- Systems can be much larger than roof mounted ones
Cost of Installation
The last piece of basic information that you'll want to know is an approximation of how much your system will cost. To calculate this you'll need to know the size of the system you plan to install (see previous section).
The rough calculation is simple. Just take the size of your system and multiply it by the $4/Watt (the average cost of installing a solar system in Nunavut). Using the example from the sizing section, we can see that a 9.16kW system would cost approximately $36,640 to install.
System cost = size needed x cost per installed watt
= 9,160Watts x $4/Watt
= $36,640
Please note that the exact price of the system depends on several factors including the system size, the quality of equipment used, and the complexity of the job. Even the range in the chart above is just for the average – installation prices can easily go as high as $4.50/Watt for premium equipment installed by the highest quality installers.

Solar Incentives
Major Program: Home Renovation Program
Savings: Varies
Nunavut scores the worst province/territory in Canada when it comes to incentive programs, having just one specific to the territory. This section briefly covers the energy incentives available to homeowners. A more in-depth explanation of each can be found on the Nunavut Incentives Page.
Solar Rebates & Tax Credits
There are unfortunately no solar rebate program in Nunavut, nor has there ever been.
Other Energy Incentives
Nunavut does have some other incentive programs available, though:
- Home Renovation Program
- For Nunavut Residents
- Forgivable loan up to $50,000 for energy efficiency upgrades
Businesses can now use the Federal Tax Provision for Clean Energy Equipment to fully expense their solar system. This means a CCA rate of 100% and the abolishment of the first year rule.
Remember, energyhub.org also has a special solar incentive. It's not huge, but it's easy to claim – just send us a picture of your installation or purchase agreement with one of our certified energy installers. Full details on the energyhub.org Cash Incentive Page.

Regional Geography
Production Efficiency: 1092kWh/kW/yr
Average Energy Use: 2.9MWh/yr
In terms of available natural resources and homeowner energy demand, Nunavut scores last when it comes to installing solar. This section briefly covers the amount of sunlight that Nunavut receives (solar irradiation) as well as energy demand from homeowners.
Solar Irradiation
Nunavut has a moderate potential to produce solar energy in all of Canada, receiving more solar irradiation than any many provinces, as well as both the Northwest Territories and the Yukon.
According to data from National Resources Canada, the average solar system in Nunavut can produce 1092kWh of electricity per kW of solar panels per year.
Here is how much an average solar system can produce each month, as well as the solar irradiation potential map for Nunavut:
This yearly average decreases as you move north in the province and increases as you move south. For example:
- A 1kW solar system in Iqaluit would produce about 1,057 kWh/yr
- A 1kW solar system in Rankin Inlet would produce about 1,150 kWh/yr
- A 1kW solar system in Arviat would produce about 1,144 kWh/yr
- A 1kW solar system in Baker Lake would produce about 1,109 kWh/yr
- A 1kW solar system in Igloolik would produce 999 kWh/yr
Total Energy Demand
According to the Canada Energy Regulator, Nunavut uses approximately 2.9MWh of electricity per person, per year (including industrial and transportation demand)! And although only a small portion of this is used within the household, the number still demonstrates a strong need for energy generation and energy efficiency technologies.
In sum, the energy generated from an average-sized solar system can produce enough energy to offset your home's yearly energy usage
Electrical Utilities
Variable Costs: $0.84/kWh
Fixed Costs: $0
Setup Fees: None
Key Policy: Met Metering
Nunavut is the best provinces in the country to switch to solar power in terms of utility related factors. This section covers how the costs of electricity as well as solar setup fees affect of the feasibility of solar in Nunavut.
Variable Electricity Costs
Variable electricity rates determine the maximal amount of money that can be saved by switching to solar – ie. they represent the portion of your power bill that goes to zero when you don't use any energy. Thus the high rates in Nunavut ($0.84/Watt) mean that the average homeowner has a lot to save with solar.
Fixed Electricity Costs
On the other hand, fixed electricity costs are not so good because they don't disappear even if you switch to solar power – you'll pay them as long as you remain connected to the grid. However, this isn't necessarily a bad thing – it's a small price to pay for using the grid as your energy back-up and virtual energy storage device! In any case, Nunavut is the only province/territory in the country that doesn't need to pay a fixed monthly fee (it's subsidized).
The only way to completely remove your fixed costs is to go off the grid, something most homeowners don't do due to the large price and maintenance costs of battery storage. Plus, disconnecting from the grid means you won't be able to participate in a net metering program.
Net Metering Policy
Net Metering is one of the most important policy mechanisms that makes solar a feasible energy generation option. Net Metering essentially means that you can send the excess energy that you produce (during the day the summer) back to the electricity grid and earn credits for that energy at the same retail rate that you buy it for.
These credits can then be used to offset your energy usage during times when your solar system doesn't produce as much energy as is needed (during the night and winter). Without this mechanism, you would need to purchase an extremely costly set of batteries.
Qulliq Energy Corps Net Metering Program allows for systems up to 10kW in size to be connected to the grid for net metering, however it's very important to note that credits in Nunavut expire on March 31st yearly, thus you'll want to work closely with your installer to make sure your system perfectly matches your energy usage.
Solar Setup Fees
Qulliq Energy Corps Net Metering Program also dictates that you don't need to pay for an interconnection study or a bi-directional meter when you switch to solar power. This is opposed to many provinces and both other territories NWT and YT where fees must be paid!
Access To Solar
Upfront Cost: $4/Watt
Financing: Forgivable Loan
Installer Access: Low
A completely new section to this year's Nunavut solar guide, Access to Solar explores the major accessibility factors in the province.
Cost of Installation
The upfront cost of installation is obviously one of the largest factors that determines whether or not a person is going to switch to solar. The current prices in Nunavut range from $3.50-$5.00 with the average price being somewhere around $4.
The price changes depending on a variety of factors:
- The size of system required (larger systems are cheaper on a per Watt basis)
- The complexity and/or specific requirements of the job
- The type and quality of equipment used
- The quality of the installation company
Remember, you can easily calculate the total estimated cost of your system in the Basics Section at the top of this page.
In general, aiming for the cheapest price shouldn't be your goal. Remember that the energy output on solar equipment is guaranteed for 25 years, so you want to make sure that your installation job is good enough to support that. You'll also want to be sure that the company you choose will be around in 5 to 10 years from now in case you need service or warranty work done.
PACE Financing
Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) is an innovative financing option that allows you to cover the entire upfront cost of your solar system (or energy efficiency upgrades) with a $0 down, long amortization period, low interest 'loan'.
However, unlike a typical loan, this loan is attached to your property (not you) and is paid back alongside your property tax bill as a Local Improvement Charge (LIC). The only eligibility is that you need to own a certain percentage of your home.
Unfortunately, no PACE financing exists in Nunavut.
Other Financing Options
Obviously though, PACE is not the only way to finance a solar system. Systems can be financed by cash, bank loans, installer financing, home equity loans, a home equity line of credit, a mortgage (for new builds), or through energy loans.
Several options exist for Nunavut homeowners:
- Home Renovation Program (energy loan)
- Forgivable Loan
- RBC Energy Saver Loan (energy loan)
- Up to 10 years amortization
- RBC contact number: 1-800-769-2511
- TD Bank (various options)
- TD contact number: 1-866-389-8888
- CMHC Mortgage Loan Premium Rebate
Access to Installers
The final category that we ranked for this year's Nunavut solar guide is access to reputable and high-quality solar installers. And unfortunately, very few installers serve Nunavut.
When you request an installation estimate through our contact form, we will connect you with the best installation company based on your specific system needs.
Solar Power Nunavut: Summary
Because of Nunavut's low installer penetration, high installation costs, and low incentives – we rank Nunavut as being the #12 province in the country for switching to solar power.

Lia Mabaquiao walks into the shoot casually dressed in mom jeans and loose, tie-dye T-shirt. She seems giddy yet cool, calm and collected. She is an Electronics and Communications Engineering junior at the University of the Philippines Diliman.
She's a typical UP student who eats Country Fried Chicken in Area 2 of the Diliman campus.
A budding singer-songwriter, she recently released her first single, "Ghost," on Soundcloud. The song was an online hit, uploaded on lots of Facebook timelines and Twitter feeds.
"Ghost" is now available on Apple Music and Spotify.
Liana, her stage name, is a walking enigma. The music of this self-taught musician is provocative. Her lyrics are raw but poetic. Her voice sounds like finely aged whiskey—warm and enticing.
"Ghost" beautifully narrates the pains and challenges of college life. It is vulnerable and unapologetic—the kind of song you'll appreciate hearing in an honest, coming-of-age film.
The song stays with you even after the storm. It comes back like a "fleeting feeling," reminding you of things you have lost and found.
In this interview, Liana lets us get to know her better and gives us some OG (original gangster) advice on how to slay your passions.
How would you describe your style as a musician?
Folk, lyrical, pop. These are my main "motifs" when it comes to my music. I draw my influences from all over—from Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, Alina Baraz, classic OPM, to so much more. I guess I'm a mix of all those influences.
What is your songwriting process?
I believe in the power of simple, straightforward lyrics in getting a message across. I usually start with a hook in my head and the lyrics just flow.
Of course, more often than not, the initial lyrics get modified, but it gives me a sense of centrality as to what the song will be about. My songs aren't written the same way. Some I really work on, others just come. That's what makes it fun.
Why "Ghost," what is it about?
It is about the seemingly fleeting things in life that we cannot just shake off on a daily basis. I wrote the song based on the idea of depression, as the "Ghost" that doesn't leave you even when you try everything you can.
I personified depression because I wanted the impression of a sad love song from the first play. In a way, it's similar to depression itself.
We first see it as some emotion that will eventually pass, but as you dig deeper, it's actually something much more than what we see on the surface.
It's amazing how the electronic beats seem to mask the darkness of the song; it made perfect sense with me. It's just like the disease itself. Not everyone will see it unless they really look into it and take their time to listen.
That's the effect I wanted the song to have: to show that some things are more than what they first seem to be.
Favorite memory from performing?
There was this gig I did in Maginhawa. It was the first I did as a solo artist and I had to play the guitar, which really wasn't my specialty.
As I started playing "Survivor" by Destiny's Child, I asked my friends to shout out the lyrics in case I forgot. I was there, singing the first line until I forgot everything that followed. I panicked, and they panicked, too, so I ended up singing the chorus thrice with deviations from the original lyrics.
It was a bad memory but I learned to never cram again after that.
If you could say anything to your 10-year-old self, what would it be?
To instill more discipline in herself. As a child, and sometimes even now, I've wanted a lot of things but I was never hardworking enough to actually reach for them. If only I had started earlier, I could have been much better at what I'm doing. This applies to all the aspects in my life, not just music.
Advice to anyone who wants to create his or her own music?
I say go for it! You're going to write bad songs at the start, but that's the necessary path you take. It's okay to not be confident in what you're creating, but be brave because whatever you do, there will be people to support you. My biggest advice is to find a friend you can completely trust to critique your work.
What made you decide to put your music out there?
A year ago, I joined a music org, the UP Music Circle, and it introduced me to many inspiring musicians. Many of my orgmates were releasing their own tracks. It got me thinking, if these people can do it, why can't I?
What are you working on?
I'm still working on a few songs here and there. I'm writing songs for my band, trying to practice my guitar playing, writing some more for my solo project, but mostly trying to figure out my true sound as musician.
I have no definite project at the moment, but it will come very soon. —CONTRIBUTED

Fashion designers have long taken their fantasy beyond using conventional fabrics. In collaboration with confectionary companies, fashion brands are avidly experimenting with such unexpected clothing material as chocolate.
Just recently, Shanghai hosted a whopping fashion show Salon du Chocolat where models sported dresses, bags, masks and fans made from chocolate.
In the meantime, German confectionary company Lambertz arranged a quite extraordinary show, too. Models along with German actresses and pop stars wore quirky outfits made from chocolate and other sweets. There were a chocolate ball studded coat, cookie package military jacket, a dress with chocolate stars and what not!
British designer Frances Cooley offers an exciting line of chocolate accessories including stiletto shoes and little bags.

This is an exciting time to be in the meat goat industry. I have seen this species go from a hobby breed in the small animal shows, to gaining acceptance and being added to livestock judging contests. Goat numbers are up and the quality of animals and showmen continues to skyrocket.
For those of you that are just getting started in meat goats, here are some things to keep in mind.
Before you purchase your project goat
Learn as much as you can before actually purchasing a goat; talk to the breeders, attend shows and ask questions! This will ensure you know how to take care of your goat and create contacts for information in you have questions along the way.
Make sure you can devote the time and work required for your project.
Know when your show date is: buy a goat that is the appropriate size, weight and age for your target show.
Have a pen, shelter, appropriate feed, and equipment (including food and water containers) ready before bringing home your new goat.
2. Before your show
Know and monitor how much your goat is eating. Weigh it often so you know how much and when to adjust the feed to be within the weight limits for your show.
Exercise your goat so he feels firm, not flabby. Exercise will also get your goat to eat more and he will put on muscle not fat.
Teach your goat to lead. You and your goat need to work together as a team.
Maintain your goat's health. Treat health issues that arise long before the show. The show is a perfect opportunity for infectious diseases (like ringworm) to spread and show officials will turn away animals that are a health risk to others. Be sure that your animal is clean and healthy before taking it to a show.
Know when you show. Be ready at ringside for your class.
Have your goat ready. He must be clean, including ears, under the tail and feet trimmed.
Never bring a wet goat into the ring. This includes his legs.
Since we leave the hair long below the knees and hocks, it needs to be trimmed so no wild hairs stick out. Give the illusion of straight lines.
It is best to clip your goat 7 days before show date with Medium blades against the hair. If you have to wait until the day before the show use Covercotes.
Clip the head and hair inside the ear for showmanship. Clip the tail to resemble a paintbrush.
3. In the Show Ring
When showing allow adequate spacing, usually a "goat length," between you and the goat in front of you.
Make eye contact with the judge as much as possible, but it is also important to be aware of your animal and what it is doing at all times.
Stand up straight and look confident.
You CAN teach your goat to brace (push against you), but do not pull his feet off the ground in the show ring.
NEVER go behind your goat to get to the other side. And when showing with a breeding loop lead, NEVER put your hand through the loop.
Know your project. Be able to answer questions about the main breeds of meat goats, rate of gain, dressing percent, wholesale cuts, anatomy, what & how much you are feeding him, and how to show his teeth.
Be a humble winner and a gracious loser -- practice good sportsmanship!
Most importantly, have fun - make friends - learn - help others - and it will be an experience that will last a lifetime.

Arkansas Taste , a particular publication of Arkansas Instances, features recipes from the Cooking Issues curriculum. Also by this state of affairs, Armand's French cooking expertise are fairly good so I swapped him with one of many Italian chefs to start giving him some expertise in Italian meals. Taught by cooks and longtime Parisian residents, there is something about cooking with domestically sourced substances that puts you in touch with the Parisian tradition in a unique way. Whereas varied cooking methods may change a vegetable's nutrient profile in various ways, not all of the adjustments are losses Some vitamins, comparable to lycopene, grow to be more obtainable in cooked produce.
J'ai une autre recette à suivre dans les prochains jours pour terminer cette sauce bolognaise. Steaming works by boiling water constantly, inflicting it to vaporise into steam; the steam then carries heat to the close by food, thus cooking the food. Add the butter and begin your toast cooking before putting the saucepan on to a fairly high heat and gently working the eggs with a spatula or a wood spoon. J'ai encore une fois repris ma recette fétiche de cookies en l'ajustant en fonction de ce que je voulais utiliser comme garniture!
Toujours sur la base de la recette de crème dessert Thermomix, j'ai remplacé le chocolat par du café. Cooking at the Rogues' Den has a permanent fireplace and is directly subsequent to a banker (Members solely). The skill necessities and recipe necessities are a bit more work than different methods, however it exhibits how fishing compliments normal cooking. I have a funny little suggestion about cooking in resort rooms – get an enormous electric skillet! Transfer your greatest American chef over to Wagons Ho. Armand could also use some expertise so when you get Delia, pull Armand over.
Love all his reveals, demanding in Hell's Kitchen, supportive in Master Chef, bulldozer in Kitchen nightmares, sort and considerate in Grasp Chef Junior. A helpful item to equip whereas training are cooking gauntlets Carrying these gloves while training cooking will reduce down time and money because of less food being burnt. A very unforgettable expertise, here is the way to make a cooking class the icing on the cake of your Parisian vacation. Earlier than Gordon Ramsay, before Wolfgang Puck, Emeril Lagasse, and even Julia Child there was Antonin Carême.
The host is a sophisticated recreational chef and meals buff – sharing household ideas and cooking traditions handed on from era to era. The cooking contest is all about French soups so decrease the prices to your soups to encourage people to order it. Additionally, it helps to assign Armand (or whichever chef you need to use for the contest however I picked Armand) to all of the soups in the menu so he's the only one training them. Certes, ces derniers sont très pratiques, mais leur saveur n'égale pas celle des cuits maison.

Research within Tufts
Approximately a year ago, you may probably come across me dealing with the difficult college admission process, producing multiple drafts of college documents or flowing to keep up with some deluge about application deadlines, now I locate myself crafting my initial blog post as the rising sophomore. Right before crossing over a few, 000 stretches across the Atlantic, I was however undecided in the choice of a primary. This indecisiveness was one of the first realizations we had as being a freshman. Stanford, being an professional research establishment, comes with a numerous array of possibilities within the anatomist department having a paradox connected with sorts for somebody like us. At once, When i was at my understanding of an school mecca with a all-you-can-study buffet of dominant ready to satisfy my intense curiosity. I found me trapped by simply abundance when spring approached with the lurking threat within the declaration timeline. After using a robotics type, which made me with an odd affinity just for Mechanical Know-how, dabbling considering the seductive substantive Computer scientific research, and owning nuanced discussions with the Professors, I actually eventually reported a major throughout Mechanical Technological know-how and a slight in Laptop Science!
Spring soon jumped away allowing campus abundant with the summertime greens, and that i had to look for something to be able to productively enjoy my first college the summer time. The idea of homework seemed in the beginning strange when i visualized personally cooped up in a non-ventilated basement important, bent over a bunch of analyze tubes underneath the guidance connected with an elderly, amusing and wise Professor. Getting research, notably as a youngster, is a bit complex and to find a research status, you'll have to come to be proactive. If perhaps there's one particular piece of advice I'd personally give in words of getting prior to position it would to just ASK! This may seem easy enough however so many people under no circumstances do so or even wait until it's actual too late. Lecturers at Stanford are some of quite possibly the most knowledgeable yet still coolest consumers you'd previously meet; they are immensely very helpful and really like your day in order to day everyday life. I chatted to a many professors, learn up their research career fields and they was nice a sufficient amount of to have chats about prospective projects that we could accomplish. After making a decision that I wished to do analysis this summer, When i narrowed down our options towards learning more the field with robotics as it gives me a an opportunity to explore a field I've been interested in.
I actually reached to my counsellor and the lady offered me personally the opportunity to attend a new summer season research application within the division, the Research Intro in Kinetic Engineering (RIME). As a RIME Scholar, I will have the opportunity to engage in three one-month long analysis lab shifts this summer.
For your month with June, As i researched throughout Tufts' CLEAN lab understanding system equipment and individuality and how this can be applied to many other fields. We started off beginning with learning how to how to use an Arduino that is certainly essentially a open-source technology platform to use to make a crowd of cool items. I was in a position to complete small projects on the Arduino of which this prepared myself enough to the even more complex plans I'll be completing as the hot months goes by. The large attraction regarding research, for my situation, is the chance learn at my pace without worrying about pressure of owning good quantities, this way, I could truthfully test the bounds of the creativity together with apply what I've come to understand in any way I choose to. Up to now, I've found this lab's setting to be very hardworking yet at the same time striking. On a regular trip to the lab, you could probably discover undergraduate summer researchers focusing on projects as being a robotic snow-melter or a private assistant. Exploration so far may be an amazing feel and I'll be sure to change you over the rest of very own journey.
Typically the Necess-city
Applying to be a transfer at my first twelve months of college, I had developed to completely reassess my a priority in a education. I found this location is the root from which many important opportunities might grow. Though Boston was obviously a huge switch for me geographically, having almost adults in Are usually, its locale status lasted feel possibly even closer to household than the small-town schools just a couple hours' refuse from VOTRE. From the moment I just arrived at Stanford, I knew that the city could play an incredible role inside my enjoyment together with success at this point. Here are some on the reasons why:
At my earliest college, situated in rural California, all too often I just felt cornered inside the school's bubble as well as limited by typically the boundaries belonging to the campus. Via orientation weeks time onward, Stanford encourages that you get off grounds, whether it be to hub regarding Davis Sq . or throughout the river into bustling Boston. One of this is my fondest stories from O-week is maneuvering over to Newbury Street together with my many other transfers along with seeing metropolis for themselves, learning to plot a route and really enjoy what could become our own new family home.
Offer Opportunities
Being in some city really encourages you to leave the house and acquire charge of your personal expansion, learning to utilize the ample activities that expect. Tufts incorporates a club for up to every attraction, and especially is much greater than in the field of local community service. Possibilities with these on-campus clubs are usually possible from the relationship the teachers has with different organizations round the city and even partnerships with the student financial concerns of various colleges. Your tutoring relationship I was interested in was able to devote one-on-one focus on over forty five students from the Greater Boston area by means of its parti with Stanford, Boston Institution, Harvard, together with Lesley. When searching for potentials that are not attributed with Tufts, local makes it easy to get yourself a well-established financial institution for any of this interests. Earlier this summer, if an internships went awry, I was able to find new plus fulfilling offer work in just days within the Massachusetts Historic Society plus the Boston Chinatown Neighborhood Centre.
Men and women
I believe that carried out situation it's the people that face the place, although it's a great place in which draws in astounding people. Birkenstock boston is a international destination, and the great want to be here. As a result, the scholars at Stanford come from nationwide and other components of the world, having memories concerning where people grew up and frequently sharing the requirement to explore the city and above. I fast met individuals who thrive with traveling together with adventure, generating memories for example driving up to New Hampshire to snowboard on our very first weekend once again from winter weather break together with spending a new summer moment an hour lapland of Tufts at Vocal skills Beach.
I will never forget this is my first nights at Stanford, when I noticed that I had a wonderful view with the Boston skyline from my dorm room home window, and ranking outside on top with geneva chamonix transfers and coming back again students discussing why most of us picked Stanford. Whenever I just look out in the views, the city your lights are a steady reminder of how much more is actually beyond institution, and the universe that this college or university is schooling me to tigeressay.com.

INDIANAPOLIS (Sunday, May 26, 2019) – Simon Pagenaud completed his May mission with the biggest win of his racing life, capturing the 103rd Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge in a duel for the ages and extending Team Penske's dominance in "The Greatest Spectacle in Racing."
Pagenaud edged Alexander Rossi by 0.2086 of a second following a thrilling clash over the final 14 laps at Indianapolis Motor Speedway that had the crowd at the world's largest single-day sporting event on its feet and screaming with excitement. It was the seventh-closest finish in Indianapolis 500 history.
"It's amazing. It's another dream come true, and the biggest dream of my life come true," said Pagenaud, the 35-year-old native of Montmorillon, France. "It's hard to fathom, really. It's really hard to process it right now, but I'm just filled with a lot of joy."
INDIANAPOLIS 500 PRESENTED BY GAINBRIDGE: Official results
Pagenaud and Rossi swapped the lead five times in the closing laps, the last when Pagenaud roared his yellow No. 22 Menards Team Penske Chevrolet outside of and past Rossi's No. 27 NAPA AUTO PARTS Honda heading into Turn 3 on the 199th of 200 laps around the famous 2.5-mile oval.
From there, Pagenaud wasn't to be denied in collecting his first Indy 500 triumph and 13th career NTT IndyCar Series victory. On the heels of his win May 11 in the INDYCAR Grand Prix on the IMS road course, Pagenaud became the first driver to win more than one NTT IndyCar Series race this season and second Team Penske pilot to win both IMS races in the same year – following Will Power in 2018.
"I drove really spirited today, but it's just incredible," Pagenaud said. "I can't take all the credit because I think it showed I had the best car out there.
"The car was just on rails; the yellows came out perfectly. The stars are aligned. … It's pretty amazing."
Pagenaud, the 2016 NTT IndyCar Series champion, also pushed to 18 the number of Indianapolis 500 wins for team owner Roger Penske. It's a total 13 more than the next nearest owner.
Pagenaud becomes the fifth driver born in France to win the Indianapolis 500 and first since former Team Penske driver Gil de Ferran in 2003.
"Simon wasn't going to be beat today," Penske said. "He raced clean, and that's what I have to say about Rossi also. The two of them for the laps that they ran side by side was as good of racing as you've ever seen here."
With double race points available Sunday, Pagenaud also vaulted into the series championship lead by a single point over teammate Josef Newgarden.

L is For…
I flip-flop on whether or the first Tamers move is good often. When I covered it on the podcast, my cohost hated it and I enjoyed it and was moved emotionally by the plot, but unfortunately, the movie suffers from 'we have twenty minutes and can't tie together all the loose ends like the universe hopping Omegamon'.
Anyway, it's a sweet story, and some aspects remind me of the My Hero Academia movie that came out in officially for English-speaking audiences last month (spoiler: Digimon somehow had the better movie?).
Labramon is so cute, evolves to Shisamon (one of my two favourite Japanese mythological creatures is the Shisa) and has prior evolutions which is just its head. Adorable.
I'm really excited for Digimon Survive because Labramon will be in it, which is surprising but welcomed. Digimon Survive is coming out for pretty much every current-gen console (even PC) so please, go buy it so we can get more releases that leave Japan.
In general, you could say that Labramon has a fairly simple design and looks more like a cartoon dog or a Pokemon, but I just find something so charming about this lil' guy.
I'm surprised most fans who have Tamersonas or OCs haven't chosen Labramon as a partner Digimon – adorable dog that evolves into a mythological creature.
So what's your favourite mon that starts with 'L'?

Quick oats have been cut, steamed and rolled into thinner flaking making them quicker to cook. Oats are among the healthiest grains on earth. Oatmeal is both a slow-digesting carb and a protein-rich source of energy for your body.
- Nutritional Profile- Oats are high in both types of fiber, soluble, and insoluble fiber. Soluble fiber turns into a gel-like consistency that slows digestion and makes us feel full. One serving of oatmeal has around 5 g of fiber and 5g of protein. Contain powerful soluble fiber called beta glucan, as well as B vitamins, vitamin E and minerals magnesium, zinc, selenium, silicon, manganese, calcium, potassium.
- Health Benefits- As a soluble fiber, it can help maintain stable blood sugar levels because it slows down the absorption of sugars during digestion. It's considered as an antioxidant because it slows down the oxidation of LDL cholesterol. Beta glucans in oats help boost immune system. Oatmeal contains enterolactone, a lignan with phytochemical properties that behaves like an antioxidant and helps prevent and fight cancer.
- Usage- You can use any liquid you prefer to cook your oats; water, almond milk and dairy milk all make interesting flavor combinations. Consider adding chia seeds, flax seeds or hemp hearts to boost your oatmeal with extra fiber, omega-3s, and energy-boosting throughout the day.

Earth and the moon might be similar in the geological department: A new study suggests that the moon is shrinking and has active faults responsible for moonquakes on the lunar surface.
Published on May 13 in Nature Geoscience, the study says the moon is getting smaller as its interior cools and it has become more than about 150 feet thinner over the last hundred million years, said a NASA press release. Similar to how a grape shrivels up as it shrinks into a raisin, the moon obtains wrinkles as it decreases in size. However, the moon's surface crust is very brittle, and it breaks down as the moon shrinks, developing "thrust faults" where one area of crust is pushed up over a nearby part.
You've heard of earthquakes. But what about moonquakes? Like a wrinkled grape drying out to a raisin, the Moon is shrinking as its interior cools causing wrinkles or faults to form on its brittle surface. When enough stress builds, it releases the quakes: https://t.co/H3ixgywT1p pic.twitter.com/OxNrVveAQk
— NASA (@NASA) May 13, 2019
"Our analysis gives the first evidence that these faults are still active and likely producing moonquakes today as the Moon continues to gradually cool and shrink," Thomas Watters, senior scientist in the Center for Earth and Planetary Studies at the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum in Washington, said in the press release. "Some of these quakes can be fairly strong, around five on the Richter scale."
For the study, scientists studied 28 moonquakes from 1969 to 1977, and hypothesized that eight of these moonquakes derived from "true tectonic activity — the movement of crustal plates," instead of rumblings inside the celestial satellite or asteroid impacts, Fox News reported. These bizarre moonquakes were detected by five seismometers placed on the lunar surface during the Apollo 11, 12, 14, 15, and 16 missions. According to the scientists, these moonquakes were not mega ones, however, if they were on our planet, they would have placed between a 2 and a 5 on the Moment Magnitude Scale.
"We think it's very likely that these eight quakes were produced by faults slipping as stress built up when the lunar crust was compressed by global contraction and tidal forces, indicating that the Apollo seismometers recorded the shrinking Moon and the Moon is still tectonically active," said Watters.
NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) spacecraft has also shown evidence of these active faults on the moon. The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC) has captured over 3,500 images of the fault scarps on the lunar surface, which show boulders at the bottom of bright patches on the slopes of fault scarps or landslides. For the past 10 years, the LRO has been taking pictures of the moon's surface, and scientists would like to compare photos of specific fault regions from different periods to search for recent moonquake activity evidence.

Operations Manager
15th February 2019
We are delighted to launch a new Papua New Guinea itinerary that includes visits to the highland interior and New Britain, introducing both the wildlife and culture of this fascinating country.
For many people, Papua New Guinea, or PNG, is synonymous with birds-of- paradise, and whilst these beautiful birds are not to be missed, there is plenty more besides to discover! This new itinerary combines some of the best highland birding sites and cultural visits with the terrestrial and marine wildlife of the Bismarck islands, including boat trips and snorkelling opportunities from New Britain.
After a day tour to Varirata National Park, which provides us with an excellent introduction to the main island's wildlife, we will next transfer to Rondon Ridge Lodge for a three-night stay in search of birds-of-paradise. We can expect to find Blue Bird-of-paradise, Superb Bird-of-paradise and King of Saxony Bird-of-paradise, as well as Princess Stephanie's Astrapia, along with a variety of honeyeaters, parrots, lorikeets, berrypeckers, fantails, and bower birds. In the lodge grounds there is an orchid trail that showcases a selection of high-altitude species, while at night large Hercules Moths are drawn to the lights around the lodge. A trip to Kumul Lodge will offer the possibility of seeing some additional species, including Brown Sicklebill, Ribbon-tailed Astrapia, Brehm's Tiger Parrot, Blue-capped Ifrit and Belford's Melidectes, and we may come across one of the local mammal species, Ground Cuscus. The valley below Rondon Ridge is home to the Melpa people, of which there are several different tribes, each with their own traditions. During our stay we will enjoy learning more about their distinct culture, and experience some of their ceremonial dances.
Blue Bird-of-paradise
Next, we will fly to New Britain, the largest of the Bismarck islands, where we stay for five nights. We will explore a number of local habitats, ranging from the coast to upland forests, searching for a variety of raptors, waders, kingfishers, parrots, scrub fowl and cockatoo. Flowering plants are a draw for butterflies, including the huge birdwing butterflies. We will also enjoy excursions out into Kimbe Bay, where we will be looking for cetaceans, oceanic birds and underwater marine-life. As we head out from the shore, we will leave behind the Brahminy Kites and White-bellied Sea Eagles that hunt around the coast, and start encountering beautiful Red-tailed and White-tailed Tropicbirds, and both Great and Lesser Frigatebirds.
The reefs in the bay are in great condition and there is much to see during a snorkelling session, with a kaleidoscope of corals and fish in multi-coloured hues. Sponges, sea fans, sea stars, seahorses, nudibranchs, 860 species of reef fish and around 400 corals are found on these reefs, making them some of the most biodiverse in the world. Spinner Dolphins are frequent visitors, and if fortunate, a playful pod may choose to entertain us by bow-riding alongside our boat!

PCI Compliance
The First Step in Safe and Secure Payment Processing
What it Means
The Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standards is a set of policies and procedures that must be adhered to by any business accepting credit or debit cards for payment. Designed to ensure uniform protection of cardholder data, PCI DSS governs a variety of areas in which to safeguard data, including:
Your office or practice location
All computers, including laptops and mobile devices
Employee training and access
Documented policies
Security services
While PCI DSS sets a baseline for security, it is not a one-stop solution. Rather, security assurance an on-going process that can require annual, or even quarterly, testing and reporting.
Why it Matters
Many payment processors assess heavy fines or penalties to business customers that fail to prove that they meet PCI standards on a regular and ongoing basis. If you haven't paid careful attention to your credit card statement, you may already be paying these fees without even realizing it.
PCI compliance is not just a financial matter, however. Demonstrating your compliance is an important way to show your patients that you care about the security of their personal information, and do everything in your power to protect it.
PCI compliance can also be an important first step in preparing for compliance with healthcare industry regulations such as HIPAA and SOX.
What We Can Do
Rectangle Health is your expert in the payments arena. We stay on top of policy, and work diligently to support you through the often arduous and time-consuming compliance process. With Rectangle Health, your POS systems will be safe from tampering; antivirus software and firewalls will be properly configured and installed; and system weaknesses will be detected.
Credit card numbers are not visible during the transaction
No data is stored on your computers or servers
Transactions meet compliance regulations, thereby removing your liability for any fraud that might occur
No quarterly scans or assessments are required
Card-on-file data is stored in a secure, encrypted vault
Significant back-up systems ensure on-going access to secure data
What You Should Do
Becoming and staying PCI compliant will help you stay compliant with HIPAA and SOX, avoid fines and penalties, and protect yourself from liability should fraud occur. Ask Rectangle Health to assure your complete compliance today.
"We are an extremely busy optometric practice, and we are always very conscious of business costs. We use a practice management software and couldn't believe we could start updating payment directly into the patient ledger and securely keep patients credit card information on file."
"We're writing to show our appreciation for Rectangle Health. Initially, I doubted some of the features that were promised, but you guys delivered. The web payments and payment plans are easy. The ease of email receipts and vaulting cards are great for our Billing Department. I would recommend any colleagues use your system without reservation."
"We have been very satisfied with the degree of customer service and professionalism we have received in the process of switching from our previous processing company to Rectangle Health."
"I had been told by many companies that they could integrate into our software, but once they came out and met with me, I could see they really could not do what they said…. Rectangle Health could not only seamlessly integrate with my software as they stated, but they could offer substantial savings each month."
"We have been a Rectangle Health client for over 3 years now and we're pleased to say they lived up to their word; from saving us hundreds of dollars in overall monthly fees to even going so far as to customize their online Practice Management Bridge for a special feature we requested."
"I would like to compliment Rectangle Health. The customer service has been top notch and your representative is always quick to return our calls. The payment software is great and has made collecting form our patients so easy. We would recommend any medical practice to use Rectangle Health!"
"Since we started to use the program, we have had an immediate and noticeable improvement in patient payment at the time of treatment. Transitioning to Practice Management Bridge has alleviated hours of extraneous work that was unavoidable with our previous retail terminal. In addition to the invaluable improvements in our practice management, Rectangle Health has saved us money by lowering our processing rate."

Timing Is Everything, Especially for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl
Most Americans will agree that rescuing a prisoner of war is the right and patriotic thing to do; however, when this prisoner of war apparently converted to Islam and declared jihad while in captivity, the action turns from one of heroics to one of controversy and doubt.
Regardless of the reason behind Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl's conversion and change (whether he did so to ease his captivity or out of free will), his actions while in captivity along with the release of five of the most dangerous Gitmo detainees drastically increase the security threat toward America.
This controversy is further muddled by the fact that Obama bypassed the law by not giving Congress a thirty-day notice before releasing the inmates from Guantanamo Bay.
Having just finished my second book, Our Presidents Rock!, it is interesting to contemplate how previous presidents would have acted if they were in President Obama's shoes today. Would George Washington have negotiated the release of Sgt. Bergdahl? Would Franklin Roosevelt have released five of the most dangerous Taliban members in Gitmo? Would the military experience of Andrew Jackson and Dwight Eisenhower have influenced them toward compassion or chastisement for Sgt. Bergdahl?
First, George Washington -- the general -- would never have allowed Sgt. Bergdahl to walk off his base unarmed in the first place. Known for his military leadership and tight control and regulation of his army, Washington would have ensured that his men stuck to their positions and refrained from wandering into enemy range. Furthermore, Washington never tolerated any form of desertion, going so far as shooting men who attempted to desert during battle. Needless to say, Bergdahl would never have been a POW were George Washington still the chief commander of the U.S. Army today.
George Washington -- the president -- would have acted in the same manner as George Washington, the general: carefully contemplating, to the full extent, Sgt. Bergdahl's actions on the day of his capture and his overall conduct while serving in the war before negotiating his release. Had Washington read the emails Sgt. Bergdahl sent to his father about being "ashamed" to be an America followed by his subsequent declaration of jihad, Bergdahl would have received great chastisement (to say the least).
Andrew Jackson would share Sgt. Bergdahl's pain, in that he served as prisoner of war during the Revolutionary War. And that's exactly where Jackson's sympathy would end. Although both men experienced the same terrors of war, their responses to the situation differed greatly. Jackson, only a boy at the time of his imprisonment, refused to be intimidated or swayed by his British captors and instead displayed courage (or recklessness) far surpassing his young age. When a British soldier asked Jackson to shine his shoes, Jackson refused, receiving a large cut across his face from the soldier's sword. Thus, upon hearing of Sgt. Bergdahl's acquiescence to the request of his Taliban captors, Jackson would have shown no mercy.

Some Sonoma County radio stations silenced by fires
With fires sweeping through Santa Rosa and Sonoma County, disrupting phone and computer connections in many areas, many residents tried to turn to radio for immediate information on evacuation orders and the spread of flames.
But with several stations knocked off the air when transmitters on Mount Barham, off Calistoga Road, that proved difficult..
One of five stations owned by Amaturo Sonoma Media Group was off the air, but its talk-news flagship, KSRO AM-FM, broadcast continuous news and bulletins, which were carried on its three sister stations still on the air.
That continued for 24 hours, starting early Monday. Morning anchor Pat Kerrigan stayed to work a 12-hour shift.
"We switched all of our FM stations over to KSRO's coverage," said the group's president, Michael O'Shea. "We have five reporter-anchors, and then we put many of our other people on the air. Everybody in the building has on-air experience."
With official sources busy with the fires and evacuations, getting accurate, detailed information proved difficult, especially in the early hours, leading to some mistakes.
KSRO had to backtrack after passing along a caller's report the Luther Burbank Center for the Arts had "burned to the ground."
"That was on our air," O'Shea said. "Now we find out the main part of it is still fine, but the classroom section is gone. But we do try to be careful to get a couple of sources, when it's not something from one of our field reporters."
The Mount Barham transmitter failure also silenced Latino 95.5 FM but its three sister stations — KRSH, Exitos, KSXY 101 — continued to broadcast, said Andre de Channes, morning on-air host at KRSH.
"Basically, we're just playing music and talking about resources for people affected by the fire, and passing along any sort of news that come in," de Channes said.
KRCB's main transmitter was also down, said B.J. Griffith, an on-air personality with the Rohnert Park-based public broadcasting radio station.
"Our transponder at 90.9 serving downtown Santa Rosa is up, with our signal streaming at www.krcb.org and we are updating info on air as we get it," Griffith said by email.
Getting fire information in Spanish was a particular challenge Monday.
"I woke up in the middle of the night and ran KSRO's feed in English because we had nothing else," said Edgar Avila, program director at bilingual Santa station KBBF. "Later on in the day we had sporadic updates and then I played a Spanish-language national stream. Tuesday morning starting at 6 o'clock, we had volunteers, with three or four people in the studio, ready to give updates."
El Patron, a Spanish-language station at 1460 AM, also affected by the transmitter loss on Mount Barham, was off the air Monday but began airing information from fire and police officials on Tuesday, said Marco Canseco, who works at the station's Santa Rosa office.

My goodness, Feyre. This is becoming a rather troubling pattern for you, isn't it?
The second book in the Court of Thrones and Roses series picks up several months after Feyre's book one trauma. Since this is a sequel review, I'm going to be a bit more spoilerey than usual—and since the book came out in 2015, I don't think I need to dance around the plot points.
I wasn't a great fan of Tamlin in the first book, as I mentioned in my review, so it should have been vindicating for me that Feyre dumps him after he finally behaves a little too much like a jerk. It was a little satisfying to see Feyre finally take control, but I'll admit that the shift felt a little false. Tamlin's sudden hyper-possessiveness, however, felt out of character for a guy who sat doing nothing throughout the entire last third of ACOTAR. He's obviously changed after such a traumatic experience, I understand that, but the book seems to suggest that he was abusing Feyre by suffocating her with too much love, which really doesn't feel like a great representation of abusive relationships. (I'm not sure that people who feel the need to sexually assault women that are already into them stop being physically abusive once the woman has sex with them.) But good thing Feyre's with Rhys now, who isn't possessive at all ever (am I laying it on too thick with the sarcasm?) and always gives Feyre every bit of information she needs (maybe too thick).
But don't get me wrong—I love Rhys. He's probably the best example of the poor-tortured-cinnamon-roll-sexy-man love interest I've read, and while that kind of character isn't my favorite, SJM executes it so perfectly that my heart was certainly doing the flutter-flutter thing. I absolutely understand why people love this book so much, and I'm bumping it up a star from ACOTAR for being such a fun ride.
Again, I must emphasize that this is not young adult in any way! I don't like to make guidelines based on age—everyone is different—but basically, a person isn't ready to read this book until they are ready to read straight-up erotica. It's not a fantasy with sex scenes as much as it is a book about a sexual relationship within a fantasy world.

Welcome to the University's wellbeing website. This website provides information, resources and UniSA initiatives that support staff wellbeing.
We focus on creating a workplace and learning environment that supports and nurtures the wellbeing of our staff and students so that they can thrive and perform at their best.
The wellbeing framework consists of 6 elements including:
However, your wellbeing is not just impacted by how these elements fare individually, but more importantly by how these six elements interact.
Wellbeing is a continuum, meaning that there is no definitive end point to signify that an individual has "achieved wellbeing". As wellbeing exists on a continuum, so too do each of the elements that contribute to an individual's wellbeing.
Initiatives are summarised under the six elements in the Wellbeing Supports link.

Sus Green
The City of Perth's "municipal officers" must give this little lane that runs between Murray and Wellington St's it's fair share of attention. To me it begs for some spray action.
Hi David, great to see you posting again.
Your watercolours never disappoint!
You really know how to handle this medium. I like your subject matter, interesting and different.
Will you be exhibiting this and those other gorgeous works below this post in the up coming Watercolour Society of WA Annual Awards Exhibition? I hope so.
The compositon here is what strikes me most. The foreground cool green wall is a difficult and very unusual subject to tackle IMO. Also the left-right-down diagonal in the composition --very rare, yet it adds to the way the work grabs your attention. The close-up is awesome! That rusty pipe against the wall, masterful, and...'The Wall'!! ???Green Floyd This piece taken together with the Window series is showing David as a master not only of composition but of colour too. There is a refreshing diversity of colour and compositon in recent works. As I heard a football coach in the English football A-league recently say of a side that was thrashing a rather predictable opposition, "Predictability is out. Versatility is in". David is in the versatility 'Zone'. And IMO that is where art is headed. More power to you, David!
Thanks Patricia, No I've been out of circulation for a while so had not organized myself well enough to enter that award exhibition.
How did you get to hear about it?
Friend, art publication, psychic powers..?
This comment has been removed by the author.
Thanks Wayne, That is one uplifting post.
I need to have subject matter that lies between where I work in the Royal Perth Hosp campus and the general city precinct. I collect subjects with my camera during my lunch breaks. As such an odd ally or two has to sneak between the windows.
Not so interested in painting the people, but rather things about the people. Sometimes the photos get some chromatic work on the computer before I paint them, this one didn't need it. The building is pretty much this colour so it was a simple matter of mixing with direct reference to the photo. I think the uploaded jpeg's a little cooler but close enough.
Thanks again! I buy a you a beer one of these days.
David, I had forgotten to click the email option and have checked back with you this morning.
You are most welcome… and glad that you are back after having a short break. I really would have liked to have said what Wayne expressed so eloquently here regarding this piece, however I lack the language of art as I have not studied it, leaving me with feelings of inadequacy. (frown)
So reading these exchanges between "the three big guns" are an education unto itself which may over time see me gain a "masters in art!" Do you think? Tee hee hee…
Ummm…now how did I hear about THAT Exhibition?
A girl should have some secrets!(smile)
If this weren't signed, I'd still know it's your's by that bitchin pipe coming out from the wall - the color and texture has TFD all over it. Nice to see PG and Wayne here, and I echo the comments. Count me as a Wannabe Aussie Artist, there must be something special in the water down there!
David - new work! Excellent to view these recent entries in the Hall of Burge. You did take on a brush full in this successful endeavor to capture the look and feel of the alley. The blending of the aqua tones in the brick-work is not just brilliant but quite functional in leading the eye about. The complementary outside pipe really adds to the strength of the overall construction. I also like how the tire acts as a punctuation point in the middle ground. A fair day in Perth and a beautiful painting.
I am late to join the other admirers of your recent works David, but I am definitely just as enthusiastic! You have taken watercolour to a new and exciting level.Fantastic work!

Our Story
Sien + Co was founded in 2016 by Alexandra Gibson after a cross-country tour of Nepal with her then four-year-old daughter. While exploring Kathmandu (and waiting 6 days for lost luggage, more on that here) they stumbled upon a cooperative of Nepali artisans where they spent a week with the women observing their craft, hearing their stories and dreaming up product ideas. Upon returning to the US, Alexandra left her job as an event marketing professional in Silicon Valley to follow her passion of handmade textiles blended with modern design.
Sien + Co's luxurious handmade knit apparel items and home furnishings are sustainably made and ethically produced. We travel to the highlands of Peru and dry forests of Argentina to source the best organic wool from sheep and alpacas. We work exclusively with Identidad Argentina to produce our home decor designs.
Serena Martin, who founded Identidad Argentina, travels anywhere from 400 to 1,000 kilometers to meet with the weavers, "Alexandra and I share the same desire: to preserve the traditional techniques of weaving and dyeing," she says. "We both strive to make the ancient art of weaving a real source of work for people who have always had looms in their homes."
Our mission is to create beautiful, high-quality products while elevating the profile of our artisans. We strive to increase economic opportunities and facilitate creative and educational collaboration.
In 2018, Alexandra launched a new collection of performance fabric in partnership with Sunbrella®. Inspired by the imperfection of handcraft, this new collection is the thickest, most texturized Sunbrella fabric ever created.
Alexandra's work and collaborations have gained recognition in the design world from Vogue, Sunset Magazine, Architectural Digest, to name a few. She specializes in creating custom products for interior design projects as well as exclusive collections for brands such as Goop, Amber Interiors and Consort Design.
In the future Alexandra hopes to get back to Nepal to work with the original artisans that inspired this adventure, but in the meantime Sien + Co is based in the beautiful mountain town of Park City, UT. You can find us in our downtown shop located at 523 Main St. Park City, UT 84060 or at our showroom by appointment only.

Just a license, not a lease
By Jason Koler
The Key West City Commission voted to allow the Steamboat Condo Association the opportunity to landscape a parcel of city-owned land at their meeting this past Tuesday.
Based on a recommendation from Assistant City Manager David Fernandez, the city will enter into a license agreement with the condo association "to enhance the appearance of this blighted area and coincide with our obligation to promote the green initiative at no coast to the City of Key West."
In a letter sent to the city, Key West resident Christine Russell stated she was totally against any agreement between the city and the condo association citing, "this is an attempt to weasel in on this parcel of land. This will be just the beginning of their eventual claim of this land."
"This appears to be a sweet deal for a developer," said Key West Mayoral candidate Margaret Romero, stating trees have already been planted on the parcel in question.
"The purpose of this agreement is to eliminate a dustbowl and plant trees," said Fernandez. "The only purpose for them to be onsite is to be able to maintain what we have allowed them to plant there."
Fernandez said the benefits of the agreement, "just made sense," since the Steamboat Association will absorb all the costs of beautifying and maintaining the property, while the city will retain complete control of the parcel for any future use.
Commissioner Terri Johnston objected and stated, "We are setting precedent here in allowing a 'for profit organization' to utilize city property," as she referenced a similar usage situation involving Wisteria Island.
Mayor Craig Cates clarified that the Steamboat Association will not get "any use out of it."
"I will stipulate that you can use it to your hearts content," said local developer Ed Swift. "I just don't want it to remain ugly."

Using risk analysis for regressive testing planning
IT professionals want their app to be of high quality. Regressive testing is a way to measure that, but won't evaluate everything. What to do? Amy Reichert has an answer.
Nearly every day, there are QA professionals wondering, possibly stressing, over how to get "everything" tested. But as quarterback Aaron Rodgers would say, "Relax."
Think about your application. How long would it take to run through regressive testing on every conceivable option available? It's neither possible nor realistic to test everything. It'd likely take years, or even decades. The company you work for will be out of business long before you release the software application.
The question becomes how do you balance business and quality?
Risk analysis is an option. Depending on your business needs, you can make risk analysis complex or derive exceptional value from a seemingly simplistic approach. In either case, you'll get definitive and factual value from the analysis and better understand how to plan regressive testing around known application risk.
The simple approach provides a communication tool built from Six Sigma DMAIC model. You can simply write down each function and it's permutations in any manner that works for your business. The whole development team provides input, while the QA professional manages the document and detail of the information and input gathered. It seems too simple, but it works to improve communication between team members while also documenting application functionality. QA ends up with factual data on what areas and functions of the application are most critical. They can then put together a regression suite that hammers the higher priority items while exercising the lesser functions less in depth. The key is to test the higher risk areas first and frequently, while still testing the lesser risk functions more superficially or via rotating test suites based on priority or risk.
You can't test it all; it'll never happen. But you can test effectively by using regressive testing by business risk and still provide valuable, useful application testing that protects your end users from error fatigue and application dissatisfaction.
