Research Laboratories draws on hydrodynamics to build their newest Shrimp lures
These lures
make use of the "InterFlow" which is engineered based on aqua-dynamics, where
water compression creates the essential energy for us to recreate the prey-like
characteristics. Upon retrieval, water is forced through the larger front intake
manifolds and forced out via the smaller exits in the lure. PR-Labs believes
that the generated energy enhances the realism of their lures.
Notice the holes in the
head...this is where the water jets out as the lure is retrieved
This lure is
best fished well over or outside of structure, as the bait makes use of two
exposed trebles which will hang up easily in vegetation. When retrieving we
noticed the lure had a slight side to side action, but for the most part didn't
rock side by side all that much. This is due to the evenly weighted
characteristics of the lure and the flat bill.
A look at the Shrimp's unique
If there was a
weight system in this lure and a slightly curved bill the bait would whip back
and forth more aggressively. This was not PR Lab's intent however, as they
wanted to create a subtle presentation, one more like a real retreating shrimp.
As water shoots through the chamber it does cause the lure to emit some sound,
though not something that anglers will hear. But the question is will fish?
The paint transitions beautifully
on the "Blue Green" Supernova model
We retrieved
the lures with slow and fast retrieves, and even added in pauses and jerks. We
didn't like the lure when burned as there is just about no action at all, and
had little success fishing it when retrieved very fast. This may be a good
technique when targeting saltwater species, but we found our local largemouth
and stripers uninterested in the lure when it was on the move quickly. In
our opinion there are two really effective ways to fish the PRL Shrimp. The
first is a consistent slow retrieve which allows the lure to move back and forth
consistently with water moving through the chamber. We were able to get both
largemouth and stripers to pursue and commit.
The cracked finish on the
Radiation "Glow Yellow" pattern even shows through when glowing in the dark
Another method
is to vary the retrieve with slight pauses, this proved much more effective for
largemouth than stripers. In terms of colors we found the metallic's much better
for stripers, and the broken up radiation glow patterns for largemouth best for
bass. The most effective pattern for stripers was the red head and blue green.
The glow orange was by far the most effectual color for largemouth, followed by
the glow yellow, which really is similar to chartreuse. While the stripers might
actually think the lure is indeed a shrimp, we believe the fish attack the lure
because it simply looks flashy in the water when retrieved. When it comes to
largemouth we believe that our local fish believe the lure is not a shrimp, but
rather a retreating crawdad. Nevertheless the fish did eat them.
If you look closely you can see
the clear coat that protects the lure's finish
Price &
Applications: Because the lure doesn't put out audible noise (at least to
anglers) we had a lot more confidence fishing these lures in calm and clearer
conditions. The Interflow design is supposed to work well in murky conditions
but we definitely had the most success in clearer water. In windy conditions it
would be nice to have a weighted model, with a system that would enable the lure
to get deeper and make noise to call fish in. While we appreciate what PR Labs
is trying to accomplish with their hi-tech design, we think that another series
with the Interflow system plus a weight exchange knocker system would make the
lure more attractive for a wider range of species. These hand crafted lures
retail for 12.90 for the 7cm model, and a dollar more for the larger 9 cm
Shrimp, a reasonable price for an imported lure. If you do want to pick up a few
you're unlikely to find them stateside, and instead the best way to get some are
direct from the manufacturer.
When retrieved with pauses bass
seem to commit more to the Shrimp, perhaps they really do think it is a craw
If you spend
time to learn more about this manufacturer it is obvious that the company has a
passion for two things… technology and art. These two attributes come together
in just about every lure the company makes, and their offerings are quite unlike
anything else in the market. The original Shrimp lures were mostly treated Teak
or Sono, or accented with mother of pearl. The lures were beautiful, and would
look great in any collector's case. We fished these original lures and found
them to be more form than function, but all of that changed with the new
finishes. The brightly colored Super Nova series made use of metallic paint to
create a much flashier lure, and the radiation series featured cracked design
that really stands out as it glows brightly in the dark. These new finished
immediately increased the lure's effectiveness on local species, and will likely
do so on many more fish, both fresh and saltwater.
Lab's Shrimp Ratings
Total Score
Pluses and Minuses:
A largemouth caught with the Glow
Yellow pattern on the Delta
Predator Labs has done a
lot of work studying how fish target prey, as well as how shrimp move in nature.
The Shrimp line of lures finally hits primetime when the company took their
Interflow design and combined it with a quality array of finishes. The new
Supernova series increases strikes with a much more visually attractive design,
while the radiation series mimics crustaceans much better, making it appealing
to freshwater fish that prey on crawdads. Bass and Stripers that once only
showed a smidgen of interest in the lures immediately started attacking the
baits. We commend PR Labs for combining both technology and art together in a
lure that stands apart from the rest of the field. While we do believe in the
positive features of Interflow design we can't help but think in some
circumstances added features like a more aggressive lip for quicker diving or a
weighted bead chamber would add additional strike triggers into a lure with a
unique profile. We have no doubt that the company is far from done when it comes
to innovating, but for now the Shrimp lures are a very interesting proposition,
and a bait that few fish or fishermen have seen yet. Which can be a very good
thing when pursuing fish in heavily targeted bodies of water.

We've all been there: sticking out our chin and pressing our tongue against the roof of our mouth in pictures. Popping the occasional collar. It's a stubborn problem, that double chin, one that's un-suck-in-able, un-cover-up-able, and un-Instagram-filter-able. But everyone deals with it eventually. "Your skin begins to thin in your 20s, and then you start losing bone, fat, and muscle in your jaw around age 50—and these changes to your facial structure make your jawline sag like a loose blouse on a wire hanger," says Jeannette Graf, a dermatologist in New York City, who has no problem telling it like it is. On top of that, your jaw is one of the three areas on your body that "gravity is working against all the time," says Amy Wechsler, a dermatologist in New York City. (The second and third: boobs.) Until recently, the only procedure that could do a damn thing for jowls was a face-lift. But now there are noninvasive ways to get rid of a paunchy chin. Give her a syringe and a doctor can reshape your jawline. Says Ranella Hirsch, a dermatologist in Boston: "It's endlessly gratifying."
You probably think of filler as something for wrinkles. You may even have a few cc's in your wrinkles right now. But in the jaw, dermatologists use filler very differently. Remember how we told you that the jawbone shrinks, contributing to sagging? "We use stiff fillers, like Radiesse and Restylane, to add structure back to the jaw—like using poles to stretch a tennis net taut," says Ava Shamban, a dermatologist in Los Angeles. "First, I inject the parts of the jaw that are under the chin and ears, where the mandible bone has shrunk. If that's not enough support to lift the entire jaw, I'll inject all the way along the jawline." The main side effect is a small chance of bruising. This approach isn't for everyone, though: "If you've got a lot of laxity, fillers aren't going to lift your jaw," says Hirsch. But for the right patient (with mild to moderate sagging, between the age of 40 and the mid-70s), "it's very effective at lifting and smoothing the jaw in a natural way," says Ellen Marmur, a dermatologist in New York City, who is wrapping up a yearlong study on the effects of filler in the jaw.
Cost: It varies, depending on how much lifting you need, but "plan on spending a grand or two," says Shamban. In better news, the effects can last up to two years.
RELATED: A Guide to Injections: 6 Things to Consider Before Going Under the Needle
The sun, smoking, genetics—these are the main causes of aging in the jaw and, you know, everywhere else. But there's also a more surprising source of sagging: "Just as gravity pulls down on your jaw over time, so can a pocket of fat under your chin," says Graf. "Kybella is an injectable, synthetic form of the fat dissolver deoxycholic acid, which exists naturally in your body." It breaks down fat cells so they can be flushed out of the body by your circulatory and lymphatic systems. It'll get rid of a double chin, or what Shamban calls a "jeck," and as a secondary benefit will tighten tissue, which could help prevent sagging in the long run. "Longer-term results can be excellent, but there's a period of swelling for one to two weeks, so it's best to get it in the winter, when you can cover up," says Hirsch.
Cost: $1,000 on average per session; it can take up to six sessions to deliver results.

By Nick
We are at the front door of the hope springs eternal section of the sports calendar. It's great that the Twins refuse to die, but football has started, and hockey, and basketball, are just close enough to be annoying. So I've been doing some thinking (always dangerous), and I've come up with the Five Keys To The Wild's Season.
1. Matt Dumba and Jason Zucker in contract seasons.
A central theme to these keys is that this Wild team is no longer a veteran team with a few promising kids sprinkled in. The Wild is now a team with a solid core in the middle of their prime years, with a few veterans mixed in for seasoning. In fact, the Wild sits right in the middle of the central division in terms of average age of its players (per CapFriendly). Older than Colorado, Winnipeg, and Nashville. Younger than Dallas, St. Louis, and Chicago.
How much incremental lift can we get from what the likes of Granlund and Nino did last season? In particular Granny had his breakout season. And, if he starts the season at less-than 100% from his ankle injury...
Coyle, Dumba, and Zucker have not had that breakout season yet - at least we better hope they haven't. I realize that Zucker doubled his production from the prior season to last season. But, if he wants to get paid like a T6 forward, I'd like to see more than 47 points. What elevates Dumba and Zucker over Coyle in this case is that they're both playing for a new contract and Charlie isn't. I'll say 30-25-55 for Zucker, and 20-20-40 for Dumba as my targets for them. That's not a projection. That's what I'd like to see them produce, in a contract year.
2. Who is the backup goalie, and how many games will he start?
Over the past two regular seasons only one other goalie in the NHL started more games than Dubnyk. And didn't he start nearly every game after he arrived in the '14-15 season? Regardless, we've ridden Dubnyk hard and put him away wet since we got him. I don't know if that wore him out, and he certainly wasn't the reason the Wild lost to St. Louis in this playoffs (1.86/0.925). But, could getting him a little more rest down the stretch be a bad thing? Or maybe before the stretch, so he and the team can "get hot" at the end of the season and try to emulate what Nashville did this year?
More than that, it would be really nice to have a backup in whom the boys are confident. So, in the absence of that last season, if the result was that Duby played probably more than Bruce would have wanted in an ideal situation, and the rest of the team played more games with a higher degree of anxiety than everyone would have wanted, ideally (read every time Kuemper was in goal), then that situation was bad for everyone, not just Duby.
It would also be nice to have a viable backup if Duby got, you know, hur.....sorry.
3. Speaking of which: Depth
The Wild, not being blessed with an elite scorer, must have depth in their roster - in all positions. It seemed they were one of the healthiest teams last season. Was that balancing the scales after several years of shitty luck with health and other random calamities, or setting up this year for a return to even just a league average amount of man-games lost? If the latter: they need depth. The good news is that they appear to have said depth.
As mentioned above the Wild is right in the middle of the division, in terms of average age. Three teams younger, three teams older. (See my prior post for more numbers. Lots more numbers.)
Up front, what this amounts to is whether or not Eriksson Ek and Cullen can replace or exceed what Hanzal and Haula did last season, and whether they ever choose one position for Coyle and let him settle into it and maybe, just maybe, develop some momentum there.
On the back end, the key here is whether Dumba takes the aforementioned next step, and if Reilly and/or Olofsson can earn (and keep) a job with the big club.
4. Scott Stevens
More accurately, the absence of Scott Stevens. Russo said on a podcast recently that Bob Woods is a defensive coach, and that's great. But the theory on defense last season was that Stevens would command respect - from all the defensemen - while helping the younger guys improve. Scandella may have been the best defenseman for the Wild against St. Louis, and now he's hanging out at the Anchor Bar. So the key here is the extent to which Stevens impacted the defense last season, and in his absence the extent to which Woods can replicate that impact this season. And, if Suter doesn't buy what Woods is selling, look out.
5. Is this a good regular season team, or a playoff contender?
Initially, we were told by Fletcher that last season was still successful because they were so good during much of the regular season. He has since undergone sensitivity training because his comments at the State Fair with Russo were much less tone deaf. But those initial comments did offer a potentially key peek into the mindset of the team's front office/ownership dynamic. And remember: Fletcher is the man who doesn't believe in windows of opportunity in which teams are contenders. So at least he's consistent.
I've made my feelings clear on this blog on the degree to which I expect this team to be a contender at this point. But, heading into season six of the PariSuter era, having established themselves as a playoff team, this must be the season in which they take the next step toward contending. Another first round loss, in other words, must not be acceptable - regardless of whether or not they set records for regular season performance again. And, just looking at the roster, not taking the next step this year could result in significant change to the roster for next season - just looking at Mikko's contract situation if nothing else.
With another season's worth of data on this point in the offing, against what feels like a building sense of anxiety from the fanbase, it's easy to see that this will be a critical season in the Wild's existence.

- The design for this figurehead was submitted by Robert Hall of Rotherhithe in December 1833 for the price of £78.0.0, a large amount for such a small figurehead. Noted as being at Plymouth in the 1911 Admiralty Catalogue, the figurehead was moved to Portsmouth Dockyard Museum on the request of George V who visited the museum in 1914 and insisted it should be placed there. It appears in the 1919 edition of the Museum Catalogue.
- Vessel history
- This yacht was used only on royal and ceremonial occasions in Virginia Water, Surrey. It had all the outward appearance of a thirty-six-gun frigate and had twenty-two brass guns mounted for ceremonial gun salutes. It was built in Sheerness Dockyard in 1833 and later transported to, Virginia Water, Surrey in 1834 and launched in the presence of the King and Queen. Queen Victoria also used the ship alongside her children in the later part of the century. 'Royal Adelaide' was broken up in 1877 and her armament went to the Royal Yacht Squadron at Cowes.

Jamaica Blue has teamed up with Lindt chocolate to create 3 decadent desserts. In Adelaide there are only two Jamanica Blue stores (Westlakes and Noarlunga) but I spy with my little eye a new store in Rundle Mall to open soon. I went to the Westlakes store with food and drinks kindly provided by Jamaica Blue and Verve Communications but this does not influence my opinion on my posts. I'm not a coffee snob but it's hard to find a mocha that I don't hate. Jamaica Blue surprised me – my cup of mocha was quite yum :) On to the food!
Surprisingly the dark chocolate and pumpkin loaf was my favourite out of the 3. I expected it to taste sweet with a bread-like texture but both of these assumptions were wrong. Instead it was crumbly like biscuit with subtle hints of cinnamon. Bites of nutty pecan and walnuts with a lovely dark chocolate hit added a nice contrast in textures. A good choice for the non sweet tooths out there – definitely more savoury than sweet :)
Dark Chocolate and Pumpkin Loaf ($8.50)
French croissant bread and butter pudding – this piped my interest especially the croissant part ;) Gooey custard-like French croissants filled with tangy dates, raisins and melted dark chocolate. The bread and butter pudding by itself was quite eggy and thick but with the scoop of vanilla icecream and milk chocolate it helped lighten the dish up a bit.
French Croissant Bread and Butter Pudding ($10.50)
The chocolate pot was quite hard to catch where I had to come a second time to seal the deal. Even then it was an hour wait as they were preparing more, apparently they make them midday and only 4 at a time. From one touch of the warm cup alarm bells started ringing – huh warm mousse? Well it wasn't mousse but instead a very runny chocolate custard. You could taste the Lindt chocolate in it but it needed to be refrigerated to develop some sort of texture. The novelty of the edible gingerbread spoons was fun at first but for someone who isn't a gingerbread fan like me found the gingerbread taste permeating throughout the dish.
Chocolate Pots ($9.70)
I have 5 x $10 vouchers to give away to 5 lucky readers. Heads up that they do a pretty good coffee (good for the perk me up during shopping) and to try that pumpkin loaf. Might I add the service was very lovely and everyone was quite considerate. To participate all you have to do is:
- Subscribe by email to I Only Eat Desserts (yellow box on your right)
- Like my Facebook Page – if you've already done so, please let me know.
- Comment below which dessert you would want to try the most.
Terms and Conditions
- Remember you have to fulfil ALL 3 conditions to win.
- This giveaway is only open for Australian residents and ends on 28/1/14 (Tuesday) at 11:59PM Adelaide time.
- Winners will be randomly drawn and will be announced on the blog and via email on the 29/1/14 (Wednesday).
- One entry per person please.
Pris, S, Miranda, Kho and Linda you have won a $10 voucher for Jamaica Blue. Congratulations :)

In Search for Angel Wings
I'm a huge fan of Colette Miller and her Angel Wings Project. It's art that reminds us that we are the biggest change agents within our community. When I found out that her art work was in Hawaii from a friend. I could not help but go and find it. We often do not realize how much of an impact we have on our communities, her art makes us realize that we are angels for others here and that we have the power to transform other people's lives as well as our own. So on my trip up to North Shore, I paid homage to her art and took the customary picture that many have done.
Here's a link to her project. She has gone to many communities using her art as a means to motivate people. Enjoy and I hope you get a chance to check out her art in your community.

SANTIAGO.- Five people were injured last night after gunfire broke out in the San Gregorio de La Granja and La Legua de San Joaquín neighborhoods.
The most recent altercation left four people injured. The most seriously wounded victim has been identified as 17 year-old Francisco Málaga León, who was shot in the torso and is currently listed in critical condition at the Barros Luco Hospital.
According to Radio Cooperativa, Police Capitan Mauricio Arenas has indicated that the shooting may have been prompted by "rival gang quarrels".
The other three people injured: 51 year-old Orlando Orellana, 21 year-old Pablo Álvarez and 19 year-old Patricio Arancibia, have all been listed in non-life threatening condition.
Meanwhile, 36 year-old taxi driver Alex Fuentealba was shot in the neck after an argument with another cab driver in the San Gregorio neighborhood. Despite the injury, the man was able to take himself to the emergency medical center in La Granja where, according to Police Captain Eduardo Aravena, he was transferred to the Sótero del Río Hospital. The other participant in the shooting reportedly fled the scene.

text: I was thinking about the way I use CD. I can't articulate how marvelous this site is and how much it has helped me. It is an oasis in the desert. I remember when I first found it. I almost cried with relief and amazement- My GOD, I am not alone! Yet (other than telling my story) I feel incapable of offering any advice to anyone who is similarly troubled. I don't want to practice false humility, but I don't feel "worthy". How can I possibly help someone when it's so obvious that I have failed to successfully solve my OWN problems? A friend was telling me about something that was going on with her kids and I started to tell her what I would do. Then I thought, "YOU need to shut up! Your kid is a hot mess. She might be scared that if she takes YOUR advice, her kid will turn out like yours..." So what I'm trying to say here is that I'm so thankful to everyone for everything I read here-the wonderful and non judgmental advice, the support, the empathy. I know that nobody is claiming to have all the answers when they post and that you are all speaking from your hearts. I am just not sure that I have the same gifs to offer you all. So I hope you will forgive me if I just seem to be "taking" and not giving back. I'm still learning. That's all I wanted to say.

Color Theory in Design
The Martin Luther King, Jr. Pre-School Learning Center is located on the campus of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Middle School and it seeks to provide spaces that serve the needs of the surrounding community beyond the educational program of the Middle School. The building accommodates 260 students in pre-school ages 3 through 5, and is home to the City of Richmond's Head Start program and the Virginia Pre-School Initiative program.
During the initial planning for the Martin Luther King Jr. Pre-School Learning Center, the design team focused on the idea of creating communities that corresponded with the different age groups of the students. As the interior spaces began to take shape, we wanted to find a simple, yet effective way to highlight the concept of these different communities.
Color is one of the most influential elements in design. We used color in strategic ways to not only highlight the features of the building but to also create a sense of identity in each community. This gesture provided a unique feeling for the different communities and acted as a tool for wayfinding, helping guide students throughout the school. Each community has a "front porch" at its entrance where its unique color is introduced into the corridor. The 3-year old toddlers may congregate in the blue community, while the 4-year olds meet in the yellow community. Using color as an identifier allows the students to navigate throughout the building without having to rely on typical signage to guide them. This approach helps the children develop place identity and strengthens their recognition and matching skills.
When selecting the color palette for the Pre-K, the design team took cues from nature. Our research taught us that warm, natural hues create a comfortable and soothing environment and by contrasting the neutral field color, we could stimulate interest and curiosity without using too bright or bold of colors. The abundance of glass in the classrooms and in the commons areas brings natural light in the spaces throughout the day; the visual temperature of the colors in these areas slightly adjust according to the time of day, making it seem as if the building is almost alive.
Research has shown that color can impact an occupant's productivity and responsiveness, and the space's functionality. It is important that designers take a more studied approach to incorporating color into the design of learning environments.

A HECTIC four-day session produced a staggering 38 hard-fighting catfish for Glyn Jones, as his ultra-powerful 5 lb test curve rods were given a thorough workout.
Tackling at Wintons Fishery, near Burgess Hill, West Sussex, the local 53-year-old banked one 50-pounder, three 40s, six 30s, ten 20s, 13 doubles, five singles and a solitary 24 lb carp.
Glyn said: 'It was quite a session but Mallard Lake has been fishing really well recently. The bulk of my catch came during the first 24 hours especially the larger fish.'
For the full story of this and another stunning 68 lb cat, read this week's Angler's Mail magazine.

Using the experience of delivering a wide variety of courses in lighting application and design for the lighting industry, the Lighting Industry Academy has developed the Certificate Course to provide a solid foundation of knowledge required for a career in lighting.
The fully revised course is designed to build an understanding of the fundamentals of light, light sources and lighting design.
The Certificate course provides an excellent grounding in lighting for a wide range of audience and has proven to be the catalyst for many long and very successful careers in the lighting industry.
The course is offered in a modular format consisting of three modules, where the individual modules can be taken together over five consecutive days or separately to suit an individual's requirement and experience.
The learners are also required to work on a lighting project of their choice to apply their learnings to a lighting scenario.
The Certificate awarded on completion of the course is recognised by the SLL (the Society of Light and Lighting) as partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the SLL Lighting Diploma.
|Course Location:
|Telford and South of England
|Education Institution:
|The Lighting Industry Academy
|4.5 days teaching + 0.5 day project briefing/workshop
|Teacher-led classroom learning
|3 knowledge tests + 1 project report and viva voce (oral examination)
|Once a month at specified dates
|CPD Hours:
|29 Hours
The Certificate course modules are offered as a stand-alone course as well for those who only want to study a specific topic covered in the course.
VIDEO: Overview by course tutor Paul Stearman
The LIA Certificate is ideal for anyone looking to start or progress in a career in the lighting profession.
The course is composed of 5 days of tutor-led training comprising of four and a half days of modules and a half-day project briefing/workshop.
The modules are delivered in a classroom setting via presentations and course notes handouts relating to each session and the Society of Light & Lighting (SLL) Handbook.
The course modules days can either be undertaken as a week-long block or as separate modules with gaps in-between; however, they must be taken sequentially.
The project briefing/workshop is delivered on the morning session of the fifth day.
The Certificate course consists of three taught modules and a lighting project:
Lighting Fundamentals
To be taken as the first module of the Certificate course, Lighting Fundamentals is taught over two consecutive days and is designed to prepare the learners for a career in lighting, or for gaining a grounding in lighting for those working in related professions.
It looks at how light is produced and measured, how light is received and processed by the eye and the emerging considerations and trends which are shaping the sector.
The Lighting Fundamentals module constitutes 5% of the total marks of the Certificate course.
Read more about the module at the Lighting Fundamentals course page.
Light Sources and Luminaires
The second module, taken on the third day of the course, is a day-long course designed to develop awareness of the types of light sources and luminaries available – this includes both modern sources and those used historically and may still be encountered in day-to-day work.
The course looks at how luminaires are constructed and classified. It introduces the light sources and their operation as solid-state lighting and explores the future of light sources and luminaires.
The Light Sources and Luminaires module constitutes 5% of the total marks of the Certificate course.
Read more about the module at the Light Sources and Luminaires course page.
Lighting Design
The third module of the course is covered in one and a half days and is designed to develop an awareness of lighting design considerations.
The course looks at the approach and techniques used by lighting designers for creating successful designs. It introduces learners to the impact of lamp maintenance and replacement on design, as well as teach considerations for retrofitting of lighting systems, emergency lighting and use of colour in lighting schemes.
The Lighting Design module constitutes 20% of the total marks of the Certificate course.
Read more about the module at the Lighting Design course page.
Lighting Project
The final part of the course is a mandatory half-day briefing session scheduled on the morning of the fifth day, which introduces the project and outlines the requirements for completion, including the type of information required and how to present it.
The project is designed to give the students an opportunity to convert the theory of the course into practice and is useful for students with little experience of the design of a lighting installation to work on the practical aspects of the course.
Following the project briefing, students are given up to 12 weeks to complete a lighting project designed to test the ability to apply learnings from the course to a lighting scenario.
The submitted work is required to include a technical report showing the design method, assumptions made, calculation method and all the data used for the design (photometric data in particular) and is assessed through an oral interview.
The project constitutes 70% of the total mark of the Certificate course.
5 days consisting of 3 modules and a project briefing. Each module can be attended consecutively or separately, however, they must be attended in the sequence given below:
|Lighting Fundamentals
|2 days
|Light Sources and Luminaires
|1 day
|Lighting Design
|1.5 days
|Lighting Project briefing
|0.5 day
Timing: 9:30 am – 4:30 pm.
Knowledge Tests
The learners are assessed at the end of each module through a knowledge test paper consisting of multiple questions.
The questions cover the principles taught during the module and are designed to test the student's understanding of the underpinning principles covered in the module.
The deadline for submission of the knowledge test will be informed by the course tutor. (It is advised to submit it as soon as possible while the course material is fresh in the mind)
Students must submit a professional report consisting of the design methods, equipment, luminaires, calculations and all the data used for the design project (photometric data in particular).
The lighting project is designed to test the student's ability to apply the learning on the course to a lighting scenario.
The project report must be submitted within 12 weeks of receiving the brief or by the deadline date agreed with the course tutor.
The project work is assessed following the submission of the report by an oral interview to review the approach and outputs.
Each component of the assessment contributes to the overall achievement of the certificate in the following way:
|Contribution to the total marks
|Pass threshold
|Lighting Fundamentals
|Requires a minimum of 60% of the marks available on each module to pass
|Light Sources and Luminaires
|Requires a minimum of 60% of the marks available on each module to pass
|Lighting Design
|Requires a minimum of 60% of the marks available on each module to pass
|Lighting Project
|Requires a minimum of 50% of the marks available for the project to pass
The Certificate is awarded on completion of all three modules of the course together with the project, within six months of starting the course.
The course is currently going through formal renewal for continuing professional development (CPD) – a CPD certificate will be issued once this has been completed.
The materials provided during the course are designed to provide support and give a reference point for completion of the knowledge tests and project work.
Support is also available through the course tutor.
Please direct all support requests via the dedicated course support email firstname.lastname@example.com. You will receive a response from either your course tutor or another suitable member of the Academy training team.
Upon completion of the Certificate course, take your education in lighting to an advanced level by choosing from the Advanced Certificate courses in Interior and Exterior Lighting.
Further develop your knowledge and career in lighting by studying for the highest qualification offered by the Academy at Higher National Certificate and Diploma (HNC and HND) in Lighting Design and Technology (offered in partnership with the University of South Wales), upon completion of which the students will have the option to convert it to BSc (Hons) Lighting Design and Technology degree at University of South Wales.
Learners may also want to improve their knowledge of a specific topic of lighting by enrolling on to the courses in one of the following subject areas:
- > Energy Efficient Lighting (understanding LEDs and their energy saving benefits)
- > Standards and Legislation
- > Lighting Design Software (DIALux and Relux)
- > Emergency Lighting (endorsed by ICEL)

So don't push me or I'll > take away this flag of yours! :-) I thought my suggestion to mention the name of the flag in the release notes only was quite reasonable. (-: > The old parallell startup behaviour *could* be useful to > start tracing early. *Is* useful. Feel free to provide a list of *more* useful ways to accomplish the same thing. ;-) (I believe this was the main reason why you agreed to put it back in...) > But since it is indeed parallell and the time to start > the shell process depends on e.g. io speed, it must be an > unpredictable way to start tracing an application start > sequence. Indeed. Depending on how quickly the situation occurs that you want to trace, it can be difficult to get the commands entered quickly enough. People here have learned to keep such commands in a text editor window, and then select a bunch of lines at a time, and copy and paste into the erlang shell. Also, a system the size of the AXD 301 doesn't start *that* quickly. Code loading alone takes nearly one minute (actually, this happens before even the old shell appears, when embedded loading is used), and loading the Mnesia database from disk takes another minute (and we have code that makes sure that no "interesting" applications start before Mnesia is done loading). For many of the sequences that one might want to trace on, there's plenty of time. OK, I didn't really mean to push you to make the feature "documented" in the sense that it would encourage people to depend on it. Tracing early on a system *is* difficult, and there is no single good way to do it. I welcome initiatives to relieve people of the challenge of pasting in shell commands quickly enough to catch the bug, but not so quickly that they break something. (-: In the meantime, one might even want to have a "tricky fault finding" tutorial, where anything goes, of course with all the appropriate disclaimers. If I may, there are some documented functions where users are *strongly discouraged* from even using them at all. I think this is appropriate. Some examples perhaps: "erlang:bump_reductions(Reductions) [...]This BIF might be removed in a future version of the Beam machine without prior warning. It is unlikely to be implemented in other Erlang implementations. If you think that you must use it, encapsulate it your own wrapper module, and/or wrap it in a catch." "erlang:suspend_process(Pid) Suspends the process Pid. <WARNING/> This BIF is intended for debugging only." "[application:]set_env(Application, Par, Val) -> ok [...] <WARNING/> Use this function only if you know what you are doing, that is, on your own applications. It is very application and configuration parameter dependent when and how often the value is read by the application, and careless use of this function may put the application in a weird, inconsistent, and malfunctioning state.

I'm Dead, but Eli made it to MemphisBackwards day dinner was breakfast, of course, in-between hockey practices.
"So I don't have enough supplies if I carry a four-man party," Eli 11.5 said, glued to his phone. "What if I just shoot them at the beginning?"
"Ouch," I said. "That's grim, although I'm not sure there's a disadvantage to doing that."
"I'm keeping you alive, Dad," he said. "For now."
"That's all I can ask for," I said. "Although if I get dysentary or a broken leg, you might as well pull the trigger."
Organ Trail is our latest game (iOS and Android), and we're both playing it on our respective devices. It's basically Oregon Trail with zombies, although this version is both very retro (visually) and very, very clever (in general). And it's hard, because surviving a zombie takeover and making it from Washington, D.C. to Oregon alive is supposed to be hard.
"Okay, I have get past a massive zombie horde," Eli said, looking at the screen. "What should I do?"
"Are they docile?" I asked.
"They are for now," he said.
"I'd try to sneak past then," I said. "I normally don't pull out weapons unless they're at least alert."
The entire game is a lesson in deprivation. Not enough food, not enough fuel, not enough ammunition. A crappy station wagon that's always breaking down.
The best part of Organ Trail is that you can make every strategic decision correctly and still lose. It's like being an adult, basically, but with zombies added.
"Uh-oh, Dad," Eli said, laughing. "Bill has dysentary."
"Don't miss when you shoot me," I said.

I see pictures like this from the Daily News and I notice one thing: the shoes.
If you're hit by a car going too fast, the shoes will fly off your feet and be left basically where you are hit. Think of how much pressure you can apply and not get your shoes off your feet. It's impossible if you don't untie them, right? It freaks me out.
"The car was going really fast down 93rd St., much faster than normal." So what's the moral? Not don't jaywalk... don't friggin speed!

Oct. 18: A Very Rickles Friessmas
Rickles. His name is synonymous with the so-called insult comic, a label he alternately embraces and cringes over. He is, he insists, a whole lot more than that. For one thing, his voice is in this year's top-grossing movie of the year, Toy Story III. Don Rickles is our guest this hour, discussing the late Tony Curtis, the pranks Sinatra and the boys played on him, how he first got to Vegas and how other so-called insult comics like Brad Garrett learned the craft from him. Also, find out where his toughest Vegas gig took place.In banter: Zipline mania, Hoover Dam bridge mania, Harrah's mania and more.

There are six Sonday's until Resurrection morning when Believers, Disciples, and Followers of the Lord Jesus Christ answer the great statement, "HE IS RISEN," with…
He Is Risen, Indeed!
And, now until then on Tasty Tuesday, we are going to feature breakfast food! We will have enough recipes to provide quite a brunch for a crowd or something simple for your family's breakfast before worship service or after sunrise services! But, here's the problem! I need recipes! What is YOUR favorite breakfast recipe? Will you email me? hopehearthome @ gmail.com (put all the spaces together please). I'd love some gluten free, vegan, vegetarian, and carnivorous! Send them to me PLEASE.
This casserole is tried and true and a great stand-by. You could try it out before April 16th as a "breakfast for supper" meal. Just click on the image to the left to get your printable.
SIDE NOTE: Fixed this yesterday on March 12th; I used gluten-free white bread cubed, 1 1/2 lb gluten-free bacon, chopped green onion, and some mushrooms (these two things were sauteed) – it was delicious and a huge hit. We had two vegetarians in the group so I made a separate cassoulette – by whisking 3 eggs separately and adding some bread cubes and mushrooms. SUCCESS!
Bon Appétite!

Talk about sour grapes! Those behind the recall, even some of those petitioning for recall signatures, are people who were previously on the Hesperia School Board and were voted off, or ran and lost. What do we do, keep on having recalls and elections until the losers win?
But please, it is your right to sign the recall petition if you wish. It has been said by some that there are employees who are being intimidated and are fearful of losing their jobs if they sign the petitions. Please give us details of these intimidations, and we will join you in exposing and dethroning those doing them. We could write pages about the inequities, unfair actions, and intimidations suffered by us and others under the previous board and management, but we have moved on.
We finally have a board that holds everyone accountable, which is what we elected them to do. Our Interim Superintendent recently wrote a letter to district employees (published in the Hesperia Star) in which he stated 'that he is excited about the state of the district' and includes a list of recent district accomplishments. Do the recallers believe Mr. McKinney is a liar? I hope not.
I believe that the silent majority (satisfied HUSD employees, parents, and other Hesperia citizens) is about to be silent no longer. Let's stop this recall nonsense and get on with the good work this district is doing.

"Eternit Villa" are modern Profile 5 sheets. The edges of the sheets are pre-cut (both coated and uncoated sheets) and the necessary holes (coated sheets only) are drilled at the factory. Therefore, the process of roofing with these sheets is much quicker and the probability of making mistakes is smaller. Eternit Villa sheets comply with all major Western European standards. The higher and wider bends create a more solid roof structure compared to the slate sheets used in the Soviet times.
These sheets are especially popular for renovation and construction of private houses due to their fast and easy installation.

Masonry Fireplace Doors
Free Shipping, Easy Installation, No Hassle Returns
Fireplace doors for your masonry fireplace can help your home's energy efficiency by keeping the warm air in and the cold air out. Masonry fireplaces are made of individual bricks which absorb the heat better than metal prefab fireboxes. This means when you choose your doors, you do not have to worry about ventilation and cooling like you do on a prefab firebox. It also means you can use an overlap fit installation which gives you more flexibility in sizes and pricing. At Brick-Anew we have a wide range of choices for masonry fireplace doors in all different sizes and design styles.
Premade or custom?
Making sure you get the right sized door for your fireplace is important. Pre-built masonry doors come in an overlap fit and are made in a few general sizes. These doors are quick shipped and economically priced. Premade doors can be bulky due to the larger sizes manufacturers make to accommodate a larger number of fireplaces. Custom doors are made to fit your fireplace based on the measurements you provide. These doors might be a little more expensive but are worth the extra cost since they look elegant with a cleaner looking fit. You also have the choice of premium finishes and types of glass that enhance your home's decor.
Overlap Fit or Inside Fit?
You have a choice of an inside fitting masonry door or an outside or overlap fit. Depending on which you prefer, both styles will enhance the look of your fireplace. If your fireplace is made of a material like rock or stone with jagged. rough edges, you probably want to go with an inside fitted door. This is because the outside fit door is mounted to the fireplace surface and will not sit flush. Outside fit doors work better on materials such as smooth brick, marble, or tile. Inside fit doors are flush with the firebox opening. If you're not sure if your brick's surface is smooth enough for outside fit doors, inside fit would be a better option.
Bi-Fold or Cabinet Style
Masonry glass doors come in bi-fold, consisting of four glass panels or cabinet style with two glass panels. Typically these panels are clear glass but some doors come in tinted shades of bronze or gray. This tint helps hide a soot stained firebox or ashes from a previous fire. All glass is tempered for safety purposes.
Steel vs Aluminum Masonry Doors
Masonry Doors are typically constructed out of either aluminum or steel. Aluminum is less expensive, rust free, and comes in a variety of powder coated and anodized finishes. Aluminum, budget priced doors can be a great value since some come with extra features like screen vents. Steel fireplace doors tend to be more expensive since steel is a heavier material. These sturdy doors also come in a variety of styles and finishes are are sure to last for many years.
Shop Masonry Doors by Price
Masonry doors start at around $350 and can run up as high as $2000. There are some great values at this opening price point of $350 which includes screen vents and basic door. It is a great value for a basic fireplace door.

"Here is what I have seen: It is good and fitting for one to eat and drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labor in which he toils under the sun all the days of his life which God gives him; for it is his heritage."
(Ecclesiastes 5:18, NKJV)
The scripture talks about how God has given us the power to enjoy what is allotted to us. That simply means another person doesn't have the power to enjoy your life. You may have more success, more money, more friends and a better job, but if you put another person in your life, they are not going to enjoy it like you. We are each uniquely designed to run our own race.
When we truly understand and embrace this, we won't be tempted to compare or wish we had what someone else has. You won't think, "If only I had their talent…" No, if God wanted you to have that talent, He would have given it to you. Instead, take what you have and develop it. Make the most of it. Don't think, "If only I had her looks…" No, God gave you your looks. That's not an accident. The life you have has been perfectly matched for you.
Now, you've got to do your part and get excited about your life. Be excited about who you are—your looks, your talent, your ability, your personality. When you're passionate about who you are, it brings honor to God. That's when God will breathe in your direction and the seeds of greatness in you will take root and begin to flourish!
Father, I thank You for giving me the gifts, talents and abilities to enjoy life and accomplish Your will. Today I choose to put my trust and hope in You knowing that You have equipped me for the destiny You have for me in Jesus' name. Amen.

Today a new widget got launched on WordPress.com. It's a widget that integrates the new MeeboMe service that the people over at Meebo have created. It will allow people to chat with you – personally, no shoutbox – from your webpage whenever you're logged into the service. I definitely want to test this out with my Windows Live account, but it sure looks good. You can see how it works on Andy Skelton's blog, who posted the news on WordPress.com as well.

Moody's Assesses Risks Associated with Otkritie FC Bank's Rapid Asset Growth as Moderate08.07.2016
Moody's has published a report answering the questions most frequently asked by investors about Otkritie FC Bank's development strategy when it comes to the bank's rapid asset growth in 2014-15, which was primarily driven by the reverse repurchase of bonds of a large Russian corporate and of Russia-30 Eurobonds. The report also states that the financial rehabilitation of Trust Bank led by Otkritie Holding has virtually no impact on Otkritie FC Bank's credit profile.
According to Moody's, concentration risks on the asset side of the balance sheet and refinancing risk in liabilities are balanced by the high quality of the acquired exposures and sizeable revenues from the reverse repos, which contributed up to RUB 25.1 billion in 2015.
The agency's analysts also note that "refinancing risks under the bank's well-structured reverse repo transactions are moderate". In particular, the credit risk is mitigated by the presence of high-quality collateral, while market risk is offset by sufficient haircuts. The refinancing risk is mitigated by indirect government support of the reverse repo deals with the corporate borrower and the strategic importance of the latter for the Russian economy. Also, Otkritie FC Bank can afford to switch FX repo with the Central Bank of Russia to repo with local market participants due to the high quality of the collateral.
The agency also notes that, despite the rapid asset growth, Otkritie FC Bank has met all mandatory requirements imposed by the Central Bank of Russia in relation to the maximum risk exposure to single borrowers, groups of borrowers and in terms of the size of related party transactions.
One of the top questions asked by investors is whether there is any impact on Otkritie FC Bank's credit profile from the financial rehabilitation of failed Trust Bank. According to Moody's, the financial rehabilitation of Trust Bank led by Otkritie FC Bank has no direct or indirect material impact on Otkritie FC Bank's credit profile. Trust Bank is placed outside the perimeter of Otkritie FC Bank group and is a relatively small entity in terms of its asset size (4.7% of Otkritie FC Bank and 4.1% of Otkritie Holding assets). The rehabilitation plan envisions a merger and integration of Trust Bank into the banking business of Otkritie Holding by the end of 2020. Moody's does not expect a merger of Otkritie FC Bank and Trust Bank to take place until the latter's balance sheet is cleaned up and its business model is restored, which will likely take several years.
"The report by Moody's has demonstrated that our choice of strategy was right," said Otkritie Holding CEO Ruben Aganbegyan. "We have created a well-balanced business model allowing us to maintain long-term profitability, despite the changing macroeconomic environment. In 2014, our main source of profit was lending. In 2015, as the situation in this sector changed, we switched to financial market transactions. It is important that whenever we find a new source of income we always thoroughly control all risks".
