Italy vs Spain: TV channel, live stream, team news & prediction
Here we go, everyone!
The quarter-finals have come and gone in the blink of an eye, and all attention turns towards the Euro 2020 semis! The first showdown of this footballing feast sees Italy take on Spain, and the winner will book their place in the grand final on 11 July, where they'll face either England or Denmark.
Italy saw off a spirited second-half display from Belgium to hold onto a 2-1 victory in their quarter-final, while Spain needed penalties to sneak beyond Switzerland, having laboured to a 1-1 draw over 120 minutes.
But no matter who are the favourites heading into Tuesday's clash, anything can happen over the course of 90 minutes in football. All we know is, it's going to be an absolute barnstormer.
Here's 90min's preview of this iconic clash.
When is kick off? Tuesday 6 July 20:00 (BST)
Where is the match being played? Wembley stadium, London
What TV channel is the match on? BBC One (UK), ESPN (US)
Who's the referee? Felix Brych, Marco Fritz (VAR)
The devastating news of Leonardo Spinazzola's achilles injury means, not only will he miss the rest of the Euros, but he'll be out of action for around six months. His absence will allow Chelsea star Emerson Palmieri the chance to shine at left-back.
Other than that one major disappointment, Italy's squad is in good nick with no other absentees.
The Spain squad is at almost full strength, giving Luis Enrique no serious concerns leading up to Tuesday's big kick off. However, Pablo Sarabia was substituted at half-time in the 1-1 draw with Switzerland, and it's unclear whether this was a tactical switch, or if he picked up a knock.
Gerard Moreno or Dani Olmo could return to the starting lineup, should Sarabia be left out.
Italy: Donnarumma; Di Lorenzo, Bonucci, Chiellini, Emerson; Barella, Jorginho, Verratti; Chiesa, Immobile, Insigne
Spain: Simon; Azpilicueta, Laporte, P Torres, Alba; Koke, Busquets, Pedri; Moreno, Morata, F Torres
Italy have stepped up to every challenge thrown their way this summer, and the victory over Belgium was only further proof that this team can go all the way. Spain on the other hand, have somewhat limped towards the semi-finals, and they've been far less convincing in their success.
La Roja also needed extra-time to defeat Croatia, and penalties to overcome Switzerland, meaning they might be carrying some heavy legs for the big semi-final. That will play into Italy's hands, and we can see Gli Azzurri's high-intensity style breaking Spain.
There's goals in both these sides, and we think Italy will run out as eventual winners, with both teams to score.
Prediction: Italy 3-1 Spain

14 Cdfted by ' MICHAEL SHMITH 1 a ii i Ceramics become the image of their Maker r I Oaft KATRINA FARRELL Greg Daly (Btham Galary until 20 March) GREG DALY'S ceramics are sensual and alive, reflecting the spirit of their maker. In bis latest collection this Australian potter, whose work is represented, throughout the world, combines a . number of glazing techniques to achieve extravagant Imagery. Daly has used his knowledge of making, glazing and firing in a way that is unique, individual and incredibly rich. j The pieces range from small fine bowls, ornate vases to wall plaques and huge platters. Odor glows deeply when light plays on the surfaces. Daly works' wich light and uses lustres (gold and silver leaf and enamel); his decorative pieces are bold, metallic and attractive. Among the smaller porcelain bowls is a challenging use of lustre, a striking combination of cobalt blue and gold, bismuth and zinc Inside the small bowls the lustres are like oil slicks at sea, ' forming scenes and patterns, with 23 carat gold and silver leaf applique breaking the slick. These small bowls are meticulously and methodically thrown with splendid precision, the delicate glazing further enhances their classical symmetrical forms. ' The larger platters have a cobalt blue base or a rich black tenmoku, with lustres, gold leaf and a splash of enamel-On each platter are abstract mysterious landscapes and shapes. On some of Daly's work the brush-stroked enamel oriental whim is a mismatch. The green enamel is a failed experiment on a few pieces and the delicacy lost On a pastel blue lustred vase it seems irrelevant and inappropriate, for example, a slight disappointment among his magnificent pieces. One grand, rounded pot has been thrown, then beaten out like an extended pregnant belly. This smooth, curvaceous spherical giant with subtle gold leaf reminds me of a female body, soft, yet firm. You have to embrace it to feel the form bursting within. All the pieces repay close inspection. Daly has extended himself and his shapes and surfaces provide an interesting display. For those who like gallant, romantic craftsmanship and perfectly thrown pots, his impressive collection should not be missed. after fan at IILM VICTORIA has returned, flushed with success, from the -new frontiers it has been forg-' ing in America's wild west At Location Expo, a sort of geographical' bazaar or should that be bizarre?

After Film Vic rep Graeme Wright gave away 300 give-aways in four hours, he had to ration them. But word has it that as a direct result of Location Expo, a proposal for an $8-10 million mini-series, to be shot in Victoria, using main-. ly Victorian cast and crew, is under ' consideration. ' Not content with storming the States, Film Vic Is consolidating its profile with a' series of PR appointments in Britain and North America. THE scheduling at 10.35pm test night of 'Guns A Licence To Kill', Jo Pearson's first documentary for the Nine Network, raises some questions. If, as we were told, she had been working on it for three months, why was it rushed to . air without benefit of property-edited , preview tapes and advance publicity? The issue is hardly likely to go away, so what's a few days here or there? And if, as we were told, management deemed the topic so important it wanted to ensure all bases were covered, why was it screened so late?

In equally surprising and non-surprising news which basically cancel each other out, therefore resulting in standard news, Insomniac is now part of Sony Interactive Entertainment's Worldwide Studios.
Announced yesterday (I'm slacking), Insomniac – famed for Resistance, Ratchet & Clank and more recently, Spider-Man, is officially becoming a first-party developer for Sony. Insomniac has always had a strong relationship with Sony, and PlayStation, so the move seems incredibly just. It does, however, mean we're unlikely to see another Sunset Overdrive game which is a damn shame!
The following quote, from a statement issued by Insomniac, perfectly sums up the reasoning for the big move.
The decision to join forces with Sony extends far beyond familiarity. Our studio vision is to create experiences that have a positive and lasting impact on people's lives. As we look ahead to our future, we know that joining the WWS family gives us the best opportunities to fully achieve that vision on a much larger scale. Further, we believe that Sony shares a similar vision to positively impact players' lives, their employees' lives and the games industry at large.

Tallinn gourmet trip
Best cafes and restaurants
One of the most important parts of a good rest is, of course, delicious food. And here, Tallinn certainly has something to please you with! You can start your gastronomic tour in this city with the local cuisine dishes. Estonian national cuisine may not claim to be the most exquisite in the world, but it is very nutritious, natural, and involves the use of minimum species, which lets you feel the true taste of food. Estonian cuisine consists mostly of rich dishes with meat, fish, vegetables, and bread that look more like simple peasant food.
Rataskaevu 16
One of the best places where you can try dishes of Estonian cuisine is "Rataskaevu 16" restaurant, which has been leading in the Tripadvisor rating among all restaurants of the city for several years. Here, each guest is surrounded with attention and care, while the refined choice of dishes won't let you have a mite left on your plate. It's better to book a table in this restaurant in advance as it enjoys a great love of locals and tourists.
Adress: Rataskaevu 16
Pancake cafe Kompressor
Another equally popular place is "Kompressor" pancake cafe. During lunchtime, there's a long queue of people waiting for a free table. However, the expectation is worth it, because the pancakes here are really the tastiest in the city. Besides that, they are very nutritious as the filling is put in them quite generously. By the way, the choice of fillings is very rich here and everyone can find something to their liking. If you couldn't resist and ordered more than you could eat, don't be shy and ask to pack the remaining food for you :) This place will be perfect for lunch or late breakfast as it is open from 11 a.m.
Address: Rataskaevu 3
Reval Cafe
If you got used to having breakfast much earlier, pay attention to Reval Cafe, which is located in Telliskivi Creative City. Starting from 8:30 a.m. they serve breakfasts to suit any taste: you can order four kinds of porridge, omelet, English breakfast, pancakes, and even syrnyky with cherry jam. Moreover, they make excellent coffee. In short, there's everything for an excellent start to your day here.
Adress: Telliskivi 60a
Vegan Inspiratsioon
Recently, many restaurants and cafes for devotees of vegetarian and vegan cuisine have appeared in Tallinn. Among them, we'd like to highlight Vegan Inspiratsioon located not far from St. Olaf's Church. This place will delight you with their wide choice of vegan dishes, while their cakes deserve special attention!
Lai 44
Kohvik Komeet
Speaking about cakes, we cannot pass by Kohvik Komeet, which is located on the top floor of the Solaris shopping mall. Enjoying a piece of dessert that is melting in your mouth, you can admire the wonderful city view from there. During the summertime, you can get cozy on the roof terrace. It's worth mentioning that in this cafe, they use products mostly from local farms located throughout Estonia.
Адрес: Estonia puiestee 9
Karu Talu Chocolate
Another place to be visited by every decent sweet tooth is Karu Talu Chocolate. All desserts that you can find here are made without flour and eggs, so they're great for those who keep figure. This place is located on a small street extending from the city hall square and attracts by the charming smell of chocolate; if you just get inside, you'll find an overchoice of mouth-watering sweets.
We listed only some places, while in Tallinn, there are lots of other restaurants and cafes that are as good as these ones. However, even several articles will not be enough to tell about all of them. That's why we offer you to dive into this gastronomic world on your own. We're sure that Tallinn does have something to surprise you
Enjoy your meal :)

Ralph McDaniels' Video Music Box
Posted By: Robert Walker on August 29, 2019
By the Mid-1970's Hip-Hop began to take the country by storm as an unstoppable music force, and although there was a resistance by the "established" music industry to push-back on what was seen as a "craze", born on the streets of New York and played out by inner-city youth with a sense of national pride, hip-hop would become the most widely listened to and purchased music in American pop culture in the 21st century, out selling every other music genre in history.
In the 70's, inner-city kids were discovering new ways to lend voice musically to the highs and lows of life and sharing their stories in rhyme over dance tracks. This was a scary proposition for the establishment, much in the same way that the 50's Rock-N-Roll music embraced the Rhythm and Blues that was largely played on the other side of the tracks, the uncertainty of what ghetto life influences would have on middle America was the real craze.
And like a **** coming on shore, there could be no denying of this music's surge. By the time the industry coined the genre as "Rap Music" and making Kurtis Blow the first rap artist to sign a major record deal in 1978, hip-hop music was born. Not because the industry all of a sudden had a change of heart and embraced rap music, but because of people like Ralph McDaniels who created a platform to support this music with a video show, broadcasting it to those in the inner-city and to kids everywhere within viewing range. Video Music Box was created.
Now in it's 36th year, Video Music Box is the longest running video music platform of it's kind. Daniels' show has featured every major hip-hop artist to ever pick-up a mike to spit rhymes.
I caught-up with Ralph to discuss Video Music Box's history and it's future along with his views on the status of Hip-Hop music today.
Q&A w/ Ralph McDaniels
Q) Ralph, last year on July 7th, 2018, you celebrated your 35th year with Video Music Box, certainly the longest running show of it's kind that features Hip-Hop artists. What gave you the idea to start Video Music Box back then and what was the political climate like concerning the state of Hip-Hop music at that time?
A) I was always a lover of music and the idea came when some early video performances of R&B ,Rock and Reggae artist were sent to the TV station . There were only a few Hip Hop videos at that time. The Independent labels didn't have the budget for Hip Hop and the major labels didn't believe yet. I decided to compile the best of what we had and eventually came Video Music Box.
Q) Would it be fair to say that Video Music Box has featured just about every well known hip hop artist of the day?
A) Yes we worked with all the major Hip Hop , Reggae and R&B artists directly. In the beginning all they had was VMB for the visuals.
Q) Is there one hip-artist that sorta got away, that you would like to have on the show, past or present?
A) I would like to work with Chance The Rapper.
Q) The show is primarily a local New York show, but it's influence and impact has been felt throughout the country.
Do you feel that is correct, and why do you think so?
A) Yes we are local, but everything happens in New York. We broke artist from Miami, Los Angeles and Atlanta. Most of those artists were not being broadcast in there region, so they had to come to NY. We have a big influence globally , because anything coming out of New York is hot.
Q) Tell our readers a little bit about your start in the business, and who were some of your mentors in the industry?
A) I love music shows, concerts and was a fan of Soul Train , American Bandstand and local NY radio DJs Gary Byrd, Fred Buggs and Frankie Crocker.
Q) Okay, tough question, do you have a particularly favorite hip-hop artist of all-time, and who are some of the rappers in the game today that you like?
A) I always answer this with Eric B and Rakim..I still love Classic Hip Hop Big Daddy Kane , Treach of Naughty by Nature, KRS-1, Jay Z and others. I think the game has changed and what Cardi B and others are doing is amazing.
Q) I recall a time when the recording industry and media critics questioned the longevity of Rap music, and said it would fade out just like disco did; and yet today, the influence of hip-hop music is in just about every genre of American pop culture (TV commercials, movies, cross-over music genres, etc.); in fact - I believe it was Billboard Magazine - reported that hip-hop music is the most listened to and purchased music of all the genres of music. Why do you think this is?
A) Yes Hip Hop was not accepted by many in the industry in the beginning. but once you went to the venues/ jams and saw it presented , young executives new it was special. Young people bring a new energy to the genre, so you have to pay attention for the next wave.
Q) Where do you see the future of hip-hop - I understand that there is an industry shift now back to R&B music, as if the two cannot co-exist or something - what's your take on this and what do you feel the next phase of hip-hop is headed?
A) I think melodies in R&B songs can be appealing to young people.
Q) So, if I am a rap artist today and I want to get my music on seen on Video Music Box, can I do so? How does one submit or reach out to you?
A) Oh absolutely you can reach me on social media @videomusicbox , but the content must be clean for broadcast.
Q) Final question, and this is my standard last question I ask all of my featured celebs. If you were giving the commencement speech at NYU - music grads class of 2020, what would your message be to those young people about pursuing their dreams in music, or just about life now as an adult?
A) Hip Hop has always been about do you. Organize your thoughts and present something fresh.
Thank you Ralph for this interview and allowing our readers to know more about you and Video Music Box! Here's to 35 more years of great Hip-Hop!

War memorial
The Great War Centennial Corner was created in 2019 to commemorate the centenary of the First World War and honour the Fallen.
The war memorial comprises a replica First World War tank, a bronze Tommy statue and a centenary poppy bench. The local community pay respect to the Fallen every Armistice Day with a Memorial Service.
Original tank
In 1921, the National War Savings Committee donated a tank to Cheshunt, which was placed on a plinth in Cedars Park. This was one of 265 'presentation tanks' (235 'Females' and 30 'Males') given to communities across Britain to acknowledge their financial contributions to the war effort. The Cedars Park tank was 2740, a 'Female' Mark IV, built at Fosters of Lincoln. In May 1940, during a time of need, the tank was sold by Messrs Cox & Danks for 27 pounds, 16 shillings and 10 pence, which supported the Second World War effort. Sadly, most presentation tanks were poorly maintained and left to rust, subsequently being salvaged for scrap during the War, the only surviving original being another Female Mark IV located in St George's Square in Ashford, Kent.
2740 was in 'D' Battalion and first saw Action in the III Battle of Ypres (Passchendaele), supporting 18 Div of the Second Army on 12 August 1917 in the Advance on St. Julien, just NE of Ypres (the Hertfordshire Regiment being one of many following the tanks, in close support), becoming Ditched due to very soft ground following prolonged heavy rain. On 22 August 1917, 2740 was struck by a German shell, which shattered its track. After being repaired, it was transferred to the Army Service Corps in early September 1917 and was converted to a 'Top-Draw Sledge Hauler' — a vehicle designed to pull a supply sledge which carried food, water, fuel, and ammunition over the churned-up conditions of the Western Front — only retaining its machine gun armament in a defensive role. About a year later, production of its successor — the Mark V — began, and slowly the remaining Mark IVs were taken out of First Line Action and reserved as backup tanks.
New replica tank
The tank in Cedars Park is a replica 'Male' Mark IV, commissioned by Pinewood Studios in 2004 and built by Dave Roberts (SFX) for use in The Magic Flute (2006). It is a shorter replica at 21 × 13 × 8 ft so that it could be easily moved around film sets, however the height is correct. It was built with a tubular steel body shell and steel caterpillar tracks, however some parts were constructed of marine plywood. The vehicle was originally powered by an electric motor, but this was later replaced by a diesel engine.
Military vehicle hobbyists Kevin Jepson and Tony Cooke of Landships Community Interest Company (now Lest We Forget Ltd.) acquired the tank in 2012, which they named 'Frank', and carried out an extensive exterior and interior refurbishment in 2013. Under their ownership, the tank attended military shows and was involved in over 70 film and television productions, including:
Wonder Woman (2017)
Transformers: The Last Knight (2017)
The King's Man (2021).
On 21 July 2018, 'Frank' was temporarily placed on the tank plinth in Cedars Park to commemorate the centenary of the First World War Armistice.
The engine and tracks were then removed to be used in a 'Medium Mark A Whippet' replica, and plasticised wooden tracks were installed, reducing the weight to less than a quarter of an original 'Male' Mark IV. The tank was also stripped of all other internal components.
Broxbourne Council purchased 'Frank', painting it brown in early 2019. The tank was brought into the park and placed on the original presentation plinth on 1 July 2019, coinciding with the centenary of Cedars Park being donated to the public. This is the only known replica to be placed on an original presentation plinth — all other plinths (except in Ashford, Kent) were dismantled or remain bare today after their tanks were removed, most sold for scrap. Kevin Jepson and Tony Cooke are now contracted to carry out annual maintenance of the tank.
Recommendations for a 'Male' Mark IV serial number to be painted onto the tank were proposed to Broxbourne Council in August 2020, but have not been approved. An updated information board for the Great War Centennial Corner, researched by Tarant Hobbs, was installed in late May 2022 to include information about the new tank.
Our tank Remembers all who served in the Tank Regiment and Corps during the First World War, and an identity for this replica has been heavily researched with the help of many experts and museums to correspond with the Active Service of the original Cedars Park tank.
2325 was a 'Male' Mark IV of 'G' Battalion of 6th Section (part of HQ Section), 20 Company, listed as the 22nd Battalion Tank (i.e. G 22) — named 'Grasshopper' by the Crew. 'G' Battalion fought alongside 'D' Battalion of 2740 towards St. Julien on 12 August 1917 (the Hertfordshire Regiment again being one of many following the tanks, in close support), and 'Grasshopper' was 'Knocked Out of Action' with its right track broken. The tank was transferred to 12 Company of 'D' Battalion and in Action on 22 August 1917 'Broke Down and was Ditched'. It does not appear to have returned to 'G' Battalion or even survived, as a 'Grasshopper II' existed later in the Battalion.
Cedars Park's excellent bronze 'Tommy' sculpture of a Rifleman from the Queen Victoria's Rifle Brigade of the London Regiment — all of 8 ft tall — was created by Roger Andrews of Glamorgan, Wales, and installed in November 2019 for the community to Remember all those who were lost in the First World War.
Deaths amounted to some 1 million from the British Empire, with the addition of over 2 million wounded, many of whom succumbed to their injuries or were left permanently disabled. We should also not forget the military personnel and civilians who died while clearing the battlefields, especially in Flanders and the Somme, due to detritus and munitions remaining after the War had concluded.
While this statue was erected in memory of all who died in the First World War, he is in special memory of Rifleman William Ernest Taylor Uglow, who lived in Cheshunt and was the youngest volunteer recruit from the Broxbourne District during the war. The statue's face is not modelled after Uglow, but the buttons of his rifle brigade, Queen Victoria's Rifles, are accurately represented on the uniform.
Remembrance bench
A bench was installed in Cedars Park to mark the centenary of the First World War and to remember the Fallen. It is made of steel, with imagery of poppies and soldiers walking to war. The bench was produced by David Ogilvie Engineering, and several with this design can be found across the country.

Tips For Getting Out Sweat Stains
My mom used to always say you needed a new white t-shirt every summer. That stayed with me and just like the sound of the ice cream truck or the feeling of sliding on flip flops for the first time, ripping the tags off a new white shirt hails summer for me. I've thrown away countless tanks and tees because of the nasty yellow sweat stains, but maybe I was too hasty. Want to get the stains out? Here's how.
Armpit stains (the stain is often a reaction between the deodorant and the sweat.)
- soak the shirt in water and vinegar in a 2:1 ratio for at least 1/2 hour
- mix 1/2 cup baking soda, 1 tbsp salt and 1 tbsp hydrogen peroxide into a paste
- take the shirt out of the water and vinegar, squeeze dry, spread the paste onto the stains and let sit for another 1/2 hour
- wash with other whites
Baseball hats
- in this case, prevention is better than treatment. Try a stain repellant you can purchase at a sporting goods store or on Amazon.
- hat liners can absorb the sweat from your head and save a favorite hat
- rubbing shampoo on the inner brim can release body oils
- spot clean with non-bleach based cleaners and a white cloth
- rinse in cold water and air dry
- I have never tried this, but research is telling me a little bit of dish soap in the fabric softener dispenser works well. I can see the sense in this as they are designed to break up oils.
- Put 1/4 cup of vinegar into your fabric softener dispenser.
- Wash white sheets twice. Once with detergent and then once with a cup of bleach.
- For yellowed sheets, purchase a bluing agent, like Mrs. Stewart's , which will offset the yellow color while you wash.
Spot cleaning a sweat stain with equal parts lemon juice and water has also been shown to work.
Still, there is nothing like a nice, new, white summer shirt!

Clean Power Professionals Group
This special interest group is for professionals to connect and discuss all types of carbon-free power alternatives, including nuclear, renewable, tidal and more.
Here's How Renewable Energy Plants Should Prep for Winter
- Dec 13, 2021 9:56 pm GMT
Last year, Earth experienced a La Niña that moved the colder parts of the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) pattern across the planet. Renewable energy plants experience production limitations as surface temperatures drop, challenging nations' new carbon-neutrality goals. Support worldwide is becoming overwhelming for emission-free electric grids.
Electricity industry professionals can produce reliable and consistent supplies by conducting weather-specific renewable energy maintenance on existing systems. Clean power technologies require different winter preparation techniques, supporting new grid advancements. Before evaluating the ways to prepare a renewable energy plant, individuals must explore colder weather's effects on production rates.
Winter Weather's Effects on Renewable Energy Systems
Many residents of the northern regions opt out of residential solar installations. They believe the systems are less effective in cool regions with high snowfall rates. However, winter precipitation is less impactful on panel efficiency rates than summer heat, proving its value in the north.
Solar systems may experience a 15% increase in production during the cooler season. One solar production limitation from winter weather is the decrease in daylight. As the days become shorter, there is less fuel for panels to use when producing electricity.
Increased winter winds cause additional impacts on renewable energy systems. During the La Niña season, Earth experiences a rise in wind speeds, enhancing turbine functions. Many energy professionals rely on wind power to support electricity demands when solar efficiencies decrease.
One adverse effect on turbines in the winter is freezing. During the extreme freeze in Texas in February 2021, a significant portion of the state experienced prolonged power outages. Part of the blackout came from from frozen turbines, which stopped or limited their production rates.
Advanced clean energy systems now utilize battery storage features. During extreme cold spells, these devices experience efficiency reductions. If the batteries are unable to support storage needs, the emission-free electric grid becomes unstable.
Electricity professionals can conduct renewable energy maintenance to prevent production deficiencies during the changing seasons. When they develop reliable power supplies, countries can achieve their carbon-neutrality goals.
The Current Demand for Abundant Clean Power Supplies
During the combustion phase, fossil fuels release greenhouse gases into the environment and atmosphere. Over time, these emissions alter the atmosphere's composition, limiting its ability to produce life-sustaining temperatures. Earth relies on a strategic process that regulates surface conditions to support the global ecosystem.
The atmosphere makes use of infrared radiation to produce heat, warming the environment. Then, it gathers excess energy and emits it to space. Excess greenhouse gases interfere with the process by raising the atmospheric light-to-heat conversion rate. Trapping and overproducing heat raises Earth's temperature over time.
Creating an abundant supply of renewable energy through each season can prevent the enhanced greenhouse effect, protecting the global ecosystem.
Wind Farm Winter Maintenance
Wind farm operators can conduct renewable energy maintenance to increase society's access to emission-free electricity in the winter. Professionals can install cold weather packages for turbines in low-temperature regions like the northeast. The system connects to the gearbox, providing internal heat and preventing freezing.
Cold weather packages protect turbines during -22°F days. Operators can also spray turbine blades with anti-icing materials during the changing seasons. Environmental engineers are also developing drones that de-ice turbines.
The Aerones drone device has 36 propellers and rotates around a turbine blade, effectively protecting systems from freezing. Using drones to conduct renewable energy maintenance decreases on-site injuries. There are also ways system operators can preserve solar efficiency levels during seasonal changes.
Solar Power System Winter Maintenance
During the winter, light snowfall has zero effects on panel production rates. UV light rays penetrate the precipitation, and photovoltaic (PV) systems continue generating clean electricity. One impact on panel functions through the winter is roof damage.
Energy professionals can ensure solar panels' reliability and high efficiency by repairing rooftops before the snowy season. Individuals may conduct roof renovations by first assessing its stability. They may work with a certified inspector to determine which areas need renovating.
Seasonal maintenance workers can use the results to repair damaged shingles, rotted materials, leaks, and other forms of degradation. When they conduct renovations, they may use sustainable materials and equipment to support national sustainability goals. Individuals can evaluate the regulation of volatile organic compounds (VOC) before repairing a roof.
Using low- or non-VOC sealants and adhesives can help professionals renovate rooftops with minimal ecological impacts. The materials also protect worker health, improving localized air quality. After solar companies conduct roof repairs, they can ensure the security and efficiency of panels throughout the winter season.
Hydroelectric Plant Winter Maintenance
Hydroelectricity is the largest clean energy supplier around the globe. It produces about 99% of Norway's electricity, minimizing emissions and preserving the atmosphere. In the winter, hydropower systems experience production limitations from ice jams.
While environmental engineers continue searching for freeze-prevention technologies, operators can use smart technology to monitor conditions. Adopting the internet of things (IoT) on a hydropower plant can significantly decrease weather-related damage. The systems may predict and monitor local temperatures, helping operators adjust production practices to protect a plant during freezes.
Storage Batteries
Additionally, energy professionals can enhance clean power production by tending to storage batteries during the changing seasons. Recent technological advancements combined solar and wind energy with fuel cell storage devices. Extreme heat and cold interfere with the efficiency levels of batteries, requiring seasonal maintenance.
While sustainable batteries work more effectively during the winter months, they still require some alterations. Hydrogen fuel cells reside in containers like shipping crates, which professionals can heat to maintain production levels. They may utilize a portion of the renewable energy to power space heaters, decrease environmental impacts, and preserve the technology.
When Is the Best Time to Conduct Renewable Energy Maintenance?
Clean energy professionals can conduct seasonal maintenance effectively before temperatures drop below freezing. Snowfall can interfere with system changes, limiting workers' ability to weatherize renewable technologies. Late fall is the best time to facilitate renewable energy maintenance and prevent weather interference.

Low-Power Wide-Area Network (LPWAN) is an enabling technology for long-range, low-power, and low-cost Internet of Things (IoT) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) applications. Due to their escalating demand in the IoT/CPS applications, recently, multiple LPWAN technologies have been developed that operate in the cellular/licensed (e.g., 5G, LTE Cat M1, and NB-IoT) and unlicensed/ISM (e.g., LoRa and SigFox) bands. To avoid the crowd in the limited ISM band (where most LPWANs operate) and the cost of the licensed band, we propose a novel LPWAN technology called Sensor Network Over White Spaces (SNOW) by utilizing the TV white spaces. White spaces refer to the allocated but locally unused TV channels (54--698MHz in the US) and can be used by the unlicensed devices as secondary users. White spaces offer less crowded and much wider spectrum in both urban and rural areas, boasting an abundance in rural and suburbs and have excellent propagation and obstacle penetration characteristics that enable long-range communication.
In this thesis, we design, develop, and experiment SNOW that is highly scalable, energy-efficient, and can connect thousands of sensors over a single-hop distance of several kilometers. SNOW achieves scalability and energy efficiency by enabling concurrent packets reception (Rx) at a base station (BS) using a single radio from numerous sensors and concurrent packets transmission (Tx) to numerous sensors from the BS using a single radio, simultaneously, which we achieve by proposing a distributed implementation of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing. We also demonstrate the feasibility of SNOW design by implementing on a prototype hardware called Universal Software Radio Peripheral(USRP).
To enable the low-cost and scalable SNOW deployment in practical IoT/CPS applications, we then implement SNOW using the low-cost and small form-factored commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) devices, where we address multiple practical challenges including the peak-to-average power ratio (PARP) problem handling, channel state information estimation, and carrier frequency offset estimation. Additionally, we propose an adaptive transmission power protocol for the SNOW nodes to handle the near-far power problem in SNOW. To demonstrate the feasibility of COTS SNOW implementation, we use TI CC1310 and TI CC1350 devices as SNOW nodes and deploy in the city of Detroit, Michigan.
To enable connecting tens of thousands of nodes over hundreds of kilometers, we further propose a network architecture called SNOW-tree through a seamless integration of multiple SNOWs where they form a tree structure and are under the same management/control at the tree root. We address the intra-SNOW and inter-SNOW interferences in SNOW-tree by formulating a constrained optimization problem called the scalability optimization problem (SOP) whose objective is to maximize scalability by managing the spectrum sharing across the SNOWs. By proving the NP-hardness of SOP, we then propose two polynomial-time methods to solve it: a greedy heuristic algorithm and a 1/2-approximation algorithm. Our deployment covering approximately (25x15)sq. km in the Detroit metropolitan area demonstrates that both of our algorithms are highly efficient in practice.

I'm about to start marketing my services and would like to know how other CA members gained builders and customers? Was it flyers / website / direct mail / handshakes / newspaper or magazine ad etc. You get the point. What did you do to get builders to start using you and customers to know that you exist?
Do you have an example or template that you found to work well?
Before I pull the trigger I thought it would be wise to ask those who have walked this path successfully.
Thanks again!

On Thursday, April 11, over a dozen Gulfport restaurants including the Gulfport Comfort Café participated in the annual international Dining Out for Life (DOL) event. Each venue contributes from 25 to 100 percent of their meal-time proceeds to the local non-profit beneficiary. This year in the Tampa Bay area proceeds went to Empath Partners in Care. According to DOL's website, their goal is to help local non-profits that provide vital services to people living with HIV/AIDS. "I like to help in any way I can," said owner and chef David Meeks, who has participated in DOL for three years. Meeks and his wife also own the South Pasadena Comfort Café, which also participated. The couple donated 25 percent of their breakfast proceeds to the cause. Pictured from left are Lisa Wright, waitress; Jody Robinson, on-site event ambassador; and Meeks.

Why should you know how to properly balance the pH level in your hot tub? It turns out that an improper pH balance in your hot tub water can lead to issues that could cause skin and eye irritation to bathers or even make them ill. An imbalance in the pH can also cause scale and corrosion of your spa equipment. How do you tell if your pH level is off? More importantly, how do you correct it?
What's pH Anyway?
Determining the pH level of your hot tub water tells you how acidic or basic your water is. pH levels range from 0 to 14, with 7.4-7.6 being ideal for a hot tub. If the level is too low (acidic), your sanitizer will not work effectively, and your water could develop bacteria. Too high a pH level (basic) and your sanitizer will also not work well. Plus, your spa could develop scale and cloudy water.
How to Measure pH
To get an accurate pH reading, use test strips or a liquid test kit. Get in the habit of testing your spa water weekly, at a minimum. Your test results will also tell you what the "Total Alkalinity" of your water is.
Why Total Alkalinity is Important
To get to the perfect pH level, you need to first start with a check of your water's total alkalinity and make any necessary adjustments. Total alkalinity is a buffer to pH, keeping it stable. The ideal range of total alkalinity is 80-120 ppm. Your total alkalinity must be in the proper range before you attempt to adjust the pH. Getting your total alkalinity in balance may be enough to fix your pH issues.
How to Adjust Chemical Levels in Your Hot Tub
If the total alkalinity is too low, you can raise it with an alkalinity increaser product. If your pH level is too high, your alkalinity will be high also. Both can be lowered with a pH decreaser product. It is essential to pay attention to the dosage directions on the package of your products. Only once your total alkalinity is balanced should you move on to adjusting the pH. You may be interested in watching Freeflow® Spa's helpful video on using test strips to measure the important chemical levels in your hot tub.
What Products to Use
Fronheiser Pools recommends Leisure Time® spa products to maintain a balanced pH level in your hot tub. Three products you should have on hand are Leasure Time Spa Up®, Spa Down®, and Alkalinity Increaser®. You can conveniently order these products from our online store. We also recommend Leisure Time's spa troubleshooting guide on their website, where you can learn many troubleshooting methods to solve common spa problems.

BELGIUM IS DEPLOYING hundreds of troops to patrol the streets after security forces smashed a suspected Islamist "terrorist" cell planning to kill police officers.
Up to 300 soldiers will be progressively deployed in the capital Brussels and the northern city of Antwerp, which has a large Jewish population, Prime Minister Charles Michel's office said in a statement.
"The mobilised troops will be armed and their primary responsibility will be to survey certain sites" and to reinforce police, the statement said.
The soldiers could also eventually be deployed to the industrial eastern city of Verviers, where early yesterday security forces killed two suspected Islamists in a huge raid on an alleged jihadist cell planning to attack police in the country.
The Belgian raid came a week after Islamist attacks in and around Paris killed 17 people, rekindling fears in Europe about the threat posed by young Europeans returning home after fighting alongside extremist groups in the Middle East.
Following the raid in Verviers, Belgian police arrested 13 people during a series of raids across Belgium, five of whom were later charged with "participating in the activities of a terrorist group."
Belgian prosecutors said there were no immediate links with last week's Islamist attacks in Paris on the Charlie Hebdo satirical magazine, a Jewish supermarket and a policewoman, the country's worst attacks in half a century.
French police separately arrested 12 people early yesterday and questioned them about "possible logistic support" they may have given to the Paris gunmen — Islamist brothers Said and Cherif Kouachi and Amedy Coulibaly, sources said.

The majority of us cannot do so and also criticize it on our hectic routines. Nonetheless, we must understand that the a lot more we work and also stress out, the extra water we have to consume to revitalise our body otherwise we might suffer from dehydration.
While the workers are placing all their energy and time to their job, it is the duty of the firm to provide them with fundamental amenities which would facilitate better efficiency. While air conditioning, high-quality meals as well as transportation facilities are the add-ons, the basic need continues to be to be that of distilled water. Minimal water consumption while working would fail to keep you moisturized and soon all your energies will certainly be exhausted. It is the responsibility of the firms to provide tidy potable water by setting up high-grade workplace water coolers.
Water coolers could generally be divided into two groups- bottled water coolers and filtered water coolers. Both of them have their own pros and cons, yet both of them guarantee that you consume detoxified water that can avoid you from water-borne diseases.
Mineral water cooler: This type of water cooler is attached with a container which contains filtered water. When we talk about workplace water coolers, it is obvious that the water would certainly be needed at all times during the office timings. While mineral water coolers make sure top quality water, transforming the containers every single time they are emptied ends up being a difficult job. Nonetheless, they are advantageous in little firms where the strength of employees is less and so lesser water is consumed.
Filteringed system water cooler: Firms that have a big labor force generally choose filtered office water coolers. Such water coolers guarantee there is adequate supply of alcohol consumption water throughout the day with no demand of making any kind of modifications, like in the case of mineral water coolers. Yet they too have their downsides. The inbuilt filter in such water coolers has actually a dealt with capability to detoxify water, past which they end up being ineffective. The maintenance team for water coolers needs to regularly inspect the filter to recognize whether it is working fine or it needs replacement.
There are plenty of well well-known water cooler firms throughout Australia. These business are performing research and development to cater more secure and also pure drinking water to the area. As the weather of Australia is awesome and also dry, it is necessary to have lots of water, this is one of the main factor of climbing need of water coolers and also water filters across the country. Picking the best water filtering device is currently no more a headache. Just by being in front of the personal computer it is feasible to discover the most effective water coolers.
A lot of the reputed water cooler companies make sure free distribution after the online purchase is made. These companies have lots of water filters that make certain multi degree filtration. This procedure of filtering system water is undoubtedly interesting and also currently well-known as well as the process of reverse osmosis. Body could not intake all the water borne fragments and also at times these particles are dangerous also. Once again it is note worthwhile that many water birthed particles have enormous wellness benefits. The process of enabling the flow of the essential minerals while filtering system the water is considered to be the procedure of reverse osmosis.
There are several water filters who provide reverse osmosis center, to be specific mostly all of the online water filtering system sellers offer much better reverse osmosis facility. While improved reverse osmosis the dangerous water birthed particles are infiltrated a subtle procedure of filtration. Earlier the mineral water filters were connected to the water dispensers of workplaces but it was not a very easy procedure. While the water filters as well as water cleansers were expensive but now the costs of the mains fed water purifiers have actually significantly dropped. This is an effect of increasing need and boost in automation as well as sale across Australia.
On the internet resources, discussion forums, write-ups and also many internet sites assist a lot to know more regarding the water coolers that are extremely in use. A number of the workplace water filter providers provide water dispensers as well as storage space devices as well. Once these coolers are bought, the rest is ensured and a lot of the firms use complimentary installment solutions. If you are changing the workplace area, no worries the filters are reinstalled without added costs. To continue to be adhered to the top quality criteria as well it is mandatory to make certain appropriate drinking center for the staff members. For this also numerous companies are considering to mount the water purification system.
It is just a good idea to maintain the main supply network ready before buying the water filters. In situation of any questions it is best to punch in the customer care numbers to get help from the customer service execs. A number of the companies are choosing bulk buy for their different universities, for special price cuts for bulk purchasers it is prudent to send a mail or straight connect with the customer treatment Waterboy Water Coolers experts. To remain fresh and comfortable while working it is essential to have alcohol consumption fountains within the workplaces, so it is best to install the water filters and coolers as early as possible.

The majority of us cannot do so and also criticize it on our hectic routines. Nonetheless, we must understand that the a lot more we work and also stress out, the extra water we have to consume to revitalise our body otherwise we might suffer from dehydration.

2011 Season in Review is a Big D Soccer series that recaps the performances of players and coaching staff while looking at pros, cons, the best moment, the worst moment and overall feelings on each individual's 2011 season.
Hoo-boy we're starting off with a doozy. 2010 was a fantastic year for Schellas Hyndman. He won MLS Coach of the Year and guided FCD to an MLS Cup spot while stabilizing a roster with a fantastic mix of young defensive talent and plenty of youth.
Expectations were, perhaps, the highest ever heading into 2011 with the same basic team returning from last year. A season ending injury to David Ferreira as well as new challenges such as Concacaf Champions League and a record-setting sweltering summer saw FCD collapse down the stretch while leaving Hyndman, a contender for a second straight COY award at mid-season, with some egg on his face as Dallas crashed out of the playoffs at the first step despite sitting near the top of the MLS table for the entire season.
Keep reading
-Holding this thing together without the MVP When David Ferreira went down, many of us thought Dallas would do well simply to make the playoffs. If there was one player on one team that couldn't afford to be lost, it was David Ferreira. However, Schellas masterminded a remarkable run through the middle months of the season that saw FCD get enough points to withstand their late season swoon and finish with 52 points(1.52 PPG, 4th best in franchise history). The mid-season success ended up being a blessing and a curse for Dallas as the solid play from that lineup without Ferreira caused most to expect the same in October without the MVP.
I don't think enough can be said for the job Schellas did in motivating the players to not collapse through the early months of the season. It was a fantastic job and one that I'm sure Schellas learned a ton about himself from.
-Winning in Mexico and El Salvador I'm about to lay into the gaffer on some of the late-season results so it's only fair to praise him for what were two historic wins. The nights of winning at Alianza and Pumas were two of the historic wins in team history. It doesn't matter who was on the field, FC Dallas will always be the first MLS team to win a competitive game on Mexican soil and Schellas deserves a ton of credit for that.
Best Moment of the Season
I would say the win at Pumas is probably Schellas' moment of the season. Any time you can make league history like that it's a huge deal. Other contenders would be the 4-0 win vs Portland, 3-2 comeback win over Kansas City and 1-0 win away to Alianza.
-Overuse of starters It's been discussed at length by myself and others, but I think things started to go wrong in mid-August even as the team was still grinding out results. Using the same back 4, and midfield started to catch up with Hyndman as the season wore down. Though he tried to fix things late in the season, giving players multiple days off, it was too little too late. The exhausted legs were never more apparent than in the two games that defined the season, home losses to New York and Toronto in which Dallas couldn't muster the energy to come back from halftime deficits.
Schellas blamed fatigue many times this season for the poor results lately, but to me that is an excuse that shows poorly on him rather than something that indicates things will be better next year.
-Poor roster management A lot of this possibly falls to Barry Gorman, but there is plenty of blame to go around for why Jackson was starting at forward in the two most important games of the season. The inability to find a true forward is something that has followed the team even going back to 2010. Maicon Santos could potentially be the answer as he gets a full pre-season with the team and Ruben Luna looks poised to take the next step after leading the 2011 MLS Reserve League in goals, but the lack of a forward to finish the multiple chances created is, in my opinion, the biggest reason for the failure at the end of this season. The work starts right now on improving the depth and balance of a roster that had plenty of defensive options, but no one Schellas trusted up top.
-Listless play at home There is nothing that drives me more crazy than losing at home. FC Dallas had 7 competitive home games in September and October. They went 0-6-1 and scored in two of the games while suffering two of the most demoralizing losses I can ever remember in falling out of the Champions League and MLS Cup Playoffs to home shutouts. For a team that is fighting tooth and nail to raise their attendance, this kind of thing can kill the momentum from an MLS Cup run from last year. Road losses are understandable, but losing at home in the last month of the season to teams that couldn't muster a road win to save their life is just unacceptable and something that should cause change in the gameday lineup rather than business as usual.
Worst moment of the season
The 3-0 CCL loss at home to Toronto was certainly the lowest moment of the season. All Dallas needed was a win or draw at home against a team they had beaten 3 times this season to historically advance to the knockout round of the Concacaf Champions League. However, TFC came in the better coached and more motivated team knocking FCD around their own park to send FCD crashing out of the CCL group stage despite winning their first two games.
Final thoughts
I think that anyone who wouldn't want Schellas Hyndman as the coach of this team for 2012 and beyond is crazy. Schellas is the leader of this franchise and the guy I want coaching this team. That being said, I think he made some mistakes this year dealing with things he's never had to contend with in the college game, much like 2009. While that year, it was problems with man management and how to treat players(problems that he reconciled 100% in 2010), in 2011 it was playing multiple competitions and how to manage a roster through the stress of two games a week with international callups that ended the season early.
It's kind of interesting to contrast 2009 and 2011 under Hyndman. That year, it was an early start which doomed the team as Schellas underestimated the talent level needed to win in the league. He fixed his mistakes by mid-season and nearly guided Dallas into an unlikely playoff spot that probably would have seen Dallas make a deep playoff run. In 2011 it was the exact opposite, a team that rode in the front seat for almost the entire season but ran out of gas. Had the season lasted another month, you could've seen a scenario in which Dallas would've crashed out of the playoff spots all together.
I believe Hyndman and FCD will bounce back in 2012 with Ferreira, a team that is extremely talented on paper and youngsters that will be a year older. However, it's what have you done for me lately and this late season collapse has earned Schellas a C rating from me for the season.
2011 Season Rating: C
