When determining whether to purchase a bulb- or strip-style heating lamp, the answer is fairly simple. Bulb-style lamps are designed more for individual plates or dishes of food, so it may take more of these to achieve the same heated area as a strip-style food warmer. Bulb-style lamps tend to be more attractive and are better suited for front-of-house applications. Strip-style models are more in line with keeping large quantities of food warm. Several strip-style lamps may be used in unison in pass-thru areas. Many strip lamps will require hard-wiring into place, a job that must be done by a qualified electrician.
Mounting Location
Another important consideration is how you'd like your lamps mounted. They may be mounted on walls or ceilings, providing a permanent, simple solution. Bulb-style lamps can be mounted on stems or cords, some of which are retractable.
- Track mounting will allow for multiple single-bulb lamps to be placed over a broader expanse and makes them movable, so you can position them where you need them.
- Countertop warmers are convenient in that they can be placed virtually anywhere there is a power supply.
- Buffet-mounted lamps can be manipulated to warm a host of items and can showcase foods on a serving line while keeping them warm.
- Floor-model heat lamps are portable, so they can be situated over mobile tables and stations. They are also convenient for caterers.
Element Type
The type of element is critical in determining the best lamp for your needs.
- Ceramic heating elementsare popular due to their ability to cast the widest heat pattern. That makes them great in pass-thru windows.
- Quartz elements are also effective and tend to be easily replaceable.
- Calrod elements are metal sheathed and use reflective panels to aim heat at your food. These are an economical choice when you need slightly more heat than a bulb warmer.
- Infrared heaterss give off intense heat and should be hung at higher levels to prevent burning food.
Control Type
A heat lamp may have controls that are mounted as an integral part of the lamp, or they may be mounted remotely. Depending on the bulb wattage and heating duration, it may be better to move the controls away from the heat of the element, which can cause damage to the control components over time. Remote mounting of the controls can help to prevent this kind of damage.
Specialty Options
Many lamps have simple toggle switches that easily turn them on and off. If you want to have more say in the intensity of the heat, opt for infinite controls that provide incremental adjustment of the power of the unit. Additionally, this type will often offer the option of turning the heat off while leaving the light on, in case you simply want to showcase foods, rather than heat them. Some lamps have two tandem strips of elements, creating a wider, seamless lighted and/or heated area.

Nissan Quest Entertainment Systems
Looking into buying a used Quest SE 2004 or newer. One option that is a must is a DVD. If I find one without DVD is it difficult to add DVD? I know with the moon roof and everything probably only a specific size will fit???
famof3kids Posts: 160Since the Quest forum was shutdown, it seems that Claires wants us to create a new discussion group for each issue. This is odd, as I've not seen this on other forums, such as the Subaru forum, anyway....here it is.
Has anyone notice that their Bose radio (SE owners) seems to go in and out of 'stereo' mode for no reason? I know that if radio reception is interrupted this will happen, but, it happens with CD's as well. It's really odd to be listening to music and it go to 'mono' and back. This doesn't happen often, but, has caught our attention a few times.
2004 Quest SE -
Claires Chicago areaPosts: 980Hi, famof3kids,
Not odd at all, and I'm not staging a coup over here in Vans & Minivans :-) These changes are taking place in all of our Forums, and have already happened in the Forester, Baja and Tribeca topics over in Subaru. The idea is to help members find the topics they're looking for more easily. To that end, I've changed the name of this topic to Nissan Quest: Audio System Questions.MODERATOR
Need help getting around? firstname.lastname@example.com - or send a private message by clicking on my name. -
tjshan Posts: 28Well, since we are starting a new thread for audio questions...
I recently got a set of the wireless headphones for our 06 SE which by the way does NOT have a DVD player...they work fine...which was a nice surprise. Now I would like to find a way to tap into the audio system to connect the kids portable DVD player audio...any idea where and what the DVD acc plug under the seat looks like , I assume all the cars were wired for DVD, just not installed.
BTW, if anyone needs an extra DVD remote...contact me.

heehaw Posts: 8I have a 2005 Nissan Quest 3.5S and want to install Offmarket DVD/Mp3 Player. Are there any good models out there that can fit into the current CD player slot in the console? Or will the DVD player have to be installed somewhere else? I am looking for the LCD screen to be attached to the ceiling.
Thanks -
harveje Posts: 6Most will fit in the storage bin under the pass. seat. You will have to lift the seat out for more room. I think that is where the factory one is. You can use a fm transmitter to broadcast the signal thru the radio. I wish we could tap into the radio for the audio signal. I bought 2 leather wrapped monitors with the adjustable post that fit where the orininal headrest are.
dtownfb Posts: 2,915To add on to what harveje posted, any audio/video store should be able to help you. I had my DVD unit added by the dealer after purchase. They sent it to a audio/video store. The unit is under the passenger seat facing the driver and easily accessed by the driver or passenger. I have the over head monitor. i Like this unit because the people in the third seat can also view it. The monitor does not interfere with rear vision.
famof3kids Posts: 160
bnsfcondr Posts: 5We just bought an 04 Quest with the factory DVD installed, but it did not have the headphones with it. Does anyone know if I can purchase any wireless IR headphones to use with this system? I have found numerous listings on Ebay for other manufacturers, but didn't know if they would work for a Nissan.
ernie144 Posts: 5Have an 04 Quest, and 4-5 times I've started the car on a cold day, and the radio makes no sound. The display works, volume numbers go up/down with the dial, cd will "play", but no sound comes out. Being a computer guy, I "rebooted" the car, and sound comes out. Anybody else had this problem? I haven't seen this issue on the recall list, and I know it's so intermittent that I shouldn't bother taking it to the dealer
plashenick Posts: 162
citron1911 Posts: 1
cirruss Posts: 87Yes, this was a problem on some of the 04 Quest. I don't know if they ever got a TSB for this, but my dealer just took my word for it and replaced it. By the way, it took us 2 new radios before getting one that worked fine. The fix is to replace the CD player unit itself. The amplifier is inside the CD player.

text: Sports Illustrated's annual swimsuit issue is eagerly anticipated each year, as the world waits to see which sexy star lands the coveted cover. Our bets are on Chrissy Teigen for the title this year, which is even more exciting than most since it's the 50th anniversary of the magazine's bikini-filled special. The very first woman in a swimsuit hit the cover back in 1955, but it really all started in 1964 with a white two-piece — since then there have been plenty of reasons that the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue made headlines. Scroll through to see all 50 covers since 1964 — and that one from 1955 too — and check back next week when the cover star is revealed!

The staff, especially Elaine, were very caring and generous, and are all major assets to the practice. I am 10 weeks pregnant thanks to Dr. Corsan and this office!

pregnant with twins :).. I was pregnant before through this center but it was ectopic case and Dr.Corsan and the staff were very helpful.. they supported me like a family (front disk members are very nice, Dr. Kevin for the education classe, the nurses specially Elaine and also the nice lady for the blood work tests ) all are very kind and caring.. I met Dr.Qasim before I start the medication for the miscarriage and he was so nice and supported me.. and I met Dr. Sachdev too and was very helpful.. four month later and I got pregnant with twins.. Dr.Corsan who transferred the two embryos for me and before he left the room he looked to me and said: you will be pregnant!! I wasn`t happy because he gave me hope but what happened is I`m pregnant with twins :)))).. and I can`t forget how was Dr.Corsan very happy for me and for my husband it`s not about his center or his successful rates no I felt it.. he is so so kind and very caring person and I`m going to miss him and miss everybody there.. Thank you Dr.Corsan you did a great job we really appreciate what you did for us and thanks Elaine (she helped me a lot and was very nice and caring ), Victoria, Erica and Rachel.

I don't know how anyone could post a negative review for Dr. Corsan. I came to Dr. Corsan after a year of trying to conceive naturally. I don't ovulate on my own and thus could not get pregnant. Dr. Corsan took his time explaining everything to me and ordered all of the appropriate tests. All of the tests came back fine and it seemed the only problem I had is lack of ovulation. Dr. Corsan was extremely patient and answered all of my questions, no matter how silly, and ordered a course of treatment. In addition, his nursing staff is wonderful. I would get a call back the same day with any questions or concerns I had. I understand that having infertility treatments can be extremely heart wrenching, and can say that Dr. Corsan is just the type of doctor you want to have by your side. I may not have had the most complicated case, but can say Dr. Corsan treated me as a priority. It is clear that he cares about his patients and I highly recommend him.

Barry & I started our journey to conceiving our 2nd child with Dr Corsan. What an amazing, honest, & wonderful doctor! I am 43 & have desperately wanted to give our daughter a sibling. We tried IUI, but unfortunately, my reserve is so low & what seemed to be a hopeless situation, Dr Corsan led us to a decision to do a FETI am now 8 weeks pregnant from a FET! Dr Corsan never gave up & gave us the best option to make our dreams come true! He was so honest with us, yet made sure it would happen! I have to also mention the staff. Amazing! Each one truly cares & is compassionate. Elaine is wonderful! She is so compassionate, giving, & really cares! I cannot say enough about her! Erica & Victoria are wonderful as well! Very caring & wonderful! Renee is a beautiful, encouraging, & wonderful person! Joy is wonderful & encouraging too! If you are feeling like there is no hope for you, please don't give up! Go see Dr Corsan & his team! Thank you! We love you all! Love Barry & Carolyn

Both my husband and I are extremely pleased with the entire staff at Center for Advanced Reproductive Medicine; everyone involved in the process was wonderful from beginning to end; the office manager who assisted me with manuevering through the financial aspects (since our insurance was used up the first time we came to the facility), to the booking staff, the nurses, lab techs and of course the doctor; Dr Corsan was my primary doctor but i met with Dr Sachdev one day when Dr Corsan was not available and he was just as attentive and knowledgeable. We have been blessed with (2) pregnancies,one resulted in healthy baby boy and one is in the early stages right now but we are so happy with the way our case was handled, i would not think of recommending any one else; They were also very good with offering assistance with financial aspect of the procedure; they really want to help people make a family!

My husband and I want thank Dr. Corsan and his fellow doctors and staff. We came to his facility after being told it would be very difficult to have children for multiple reasons. Dr. Corsan helped me understand our aituation and gave me many options. From surgery in February and ivf in June I can honestly say that my husband and I are 11 weeks pregnant with a nice strong healthy baby ALL thanks to Dr. Corsan and his staff.Caring, punctual, and everything you could possibly need in a doctor we couldnt have asked for anything more... Thank you so much Dr. Corsan!!!!

Dr. Corsan and the entire staff at The Center for Advanced Reproductive Medicine & Fertility was incredible! Always punctual, I always was able to walk right in for all of my appointments and bloodwork. They were friendly, caring, supportive, flexible with scheduling, and very knowledgeable. I was able to get pregnant just 2 months after my initial consultation, just 2 IUI procedures was all it took. I am very thankful and glad I chose this practice.

Dr.Corsan is a professional, caring & straight to the point doctor. I had 2 IUI's performed as well as a procedure called Laparoscopy. Not only was Dr. Corsan reassuring, he guided my partner & I through the whole process. He took his time in answering all of our questions & made sure we understood everything. He didn't hold back in sharing his thoughts & advice for us. His staff are all extremely friendly, knowledgeable & supportive as they checked in to make sure I was okay during my time there. El is the sweetest receptionist. The nurses are very patient as I am a total nerve wreck! Tina & Erika kept me calm & reassured us through it all. Today I officially 'graduated'! Dr. Corsan was obviously genuinely happy for us and did not at any time make us feel as though we were just another patient. I am elated to announce that after the 2nd round of IUI we are expecting a healthy little boy or girl! I could not have imagined this process to be successfully completed by any other doctor.

NAGPUR: The saga of Nagpur University's paper leak, first exposed by TOI on Sunday, went through the ups and downs a day later and culminated with its officials finally admitting to the lapse and filing an application to probe the leak, at the Sitabuldi police station. The day's development also brought to the fore how the varsity had managed to keep another paper leak under wraps for almost a week.
On Monday, registrar Mahesh Yenkie and controller of examination Siddharth Kane have written to the police to investigate how the leak had taken place. Even though a couple of management council members wanted an FIR to be filed and a judicial probe to be conducted, nothing has been done yet. There has also been no decision on a re-exam.
Earlier, on April 16, the B Ed question paper too was out before the exam. However, the varsity realized it in the nick of time and replaced the question paper with a new one four hours before the exam. This was revealed to TOI by another management council member who did not want to be named.
After being in denial on Saturday and Sunday, the varsity finally admitted to the leak after the four-member fact-finding committee, headed by chancellor's nominee Sanjay Khaddakar, conducted an investigation. It confirmed that the leaked question paper was received by Yenkie, commerce dean Bharat Meghe and management council member Mahendra Nimbarte. While the latter two confirmed that they had received the mails, NU first denied a receipt only to confirm it later.
While in denial mode, the varsity even accused TOI of fabricating the report. Its officials even called on IT experts to confirm the veracity of the e-mails. Kane had told TOI that on Friday night he was with Board of College and University Director (BCUD) Arvind Chaudhari in Jalgaon and returned to the city only at 3.30am and it was not possible for anybody to contact him. On Sunday, he blamed TOI for not informing in advance so that they could have taken a timely action.
"We have found that the contents of the leaked and original papers are similar," said VC Vilas Sapkal very guardedly. "

In waters' calm leisure, mellow tides drift Along back strides that always find their sway, The lighter blues, the deeper jades, that sift Each glimmer of mollusks that romp and play. From the swoon of bay when dusk slowly cranes Pewter the wavelets, darker steel the shore; Above, one bold and yellow stripe explores To jiggle in a curdled breeze and spills A frothy crest with waltzes soon to fade Before moon comes in her gathering wade.

Great pics, I need a pizza now!!!! Thanks for posting.
One of the highlights from my birthday celebration was lunch at Via Napoli. It was a very hot August day with the sun screaming down.
The heat and humidity from outside quickly evaporated as we waited for a table while listening to my favorite Italian song. "Mambo Italiano"
The first table we were shown to was rocking quite a bit on the tile floor. Really, my water glass was sloshing. I asked if we could be moved to a stable table. The next table over was offered but that was right next to the entrance.
There were plenty of "terrible tables for two" to chose from.
They were very accomodating. The maitre d' divided a table for four for us and finally we settled in to our menus. We were warned food is served when it's ready. It doesn't sit waiting for all to eat together. Serving fresh, hot food is more important than serving everyone at the same time.
This is a view from our table into the larger room.
The ovens are at one end and a large counter/table runs down the center. The layout is very casual with tile floors, booths, mismatched wooden chairs, high ceilings, large windows. Open and airy. I noticed only salt shakers on the table.
It was loud. Not in an OHana coconut pushing loud way but people talking, lively music, chairs on tile taverna floor loud.
The menu looked wonderful with a variety of appetizers and entrees to choose from. Initially I thought we would split a large pizza as this was an early lunch but was told that with the Disney dining plan you may not split anything other than individual pizzas using the 1T. The large and 1/2 meter cannot be split. Regular entrees may be split. TIW is now accepted.
We ordered the Pepperoni Pizza and a Calamari Pizza. The kitchen is a huge show kitchen with high ceilings and visible from almost every table.
The wood fired ovens are named Stromboli, Vesuvio & Etna after three volcanoes in Italy.
Here the chef is preparing a large pizza. When brought to the table it's put on a large stand in the center of the table. Cooking stations are all visible and exciting to watch. Especially for a foodie like myself.
We had time to scout for Hidden Mickeys. Found a few!
Our pizzas arrived together and piping hot. Drinks were refreshed quickly and without notice. Our server was very attentive and did more than the 2 sec. check. We ate heartily.
Fried corn crusted calamari, arugula & fennel.
Fresh was the first word that came to mind. The crust was perfect. Crisp on the edge but chewy and thin. I asked that mine be re-cut as it wasn't cut into manageable pieces. They hadn't actually cut the crust it was quartered if that. This proved a little confusing to my server at first but then understood.The sauce reminded me of a NYC pizza sauce but tastier. The calamari was sparse. Took a pic instead of counting.
The pepperoni pizza was delicious.
Spicy pepperoni, tomato & mozzarella. Each bite exploded with flavor.
I'm familiar with the best of NYC pizzas and these were better!
For dessert we ordered Tiramasu and
Coppa di Brutti Ma Buoni aka "Ugly but Good"
Tiramisu 8. Mascarpone cream, espresso coffee, lady fingers & chocolate
"Ugly But Good"
Amarena cherry & vanilla gelato sundae with the "Ugly But Good Cookies" All incredibly heavenly delicious and not to be missed for 10.
Birthdays at Via Napoli are unforgettable
even if it's one you'd rather forget! 60
Servers gather around to sing the Italian happy birthday song!
a special birthday dessert too!
Now it was time to roll ourselves out into the blistery sun and work some of Italy off in the WS.
If I ever have two hours for lunch and $$ for pizza again
I'm right back there!

Just outside of this shot. To the right behind the stone benches. Is an awning covered outside area with tables and chairs. That would be a nice place to dine on a cool evening.
The "Ugly But Good" is made from rich cream and has the old time ice cream parlor taste. Nothing ugly about it but the calories and those you can walk off around the World Showcase

- Conference date: 24-28 June 2002
- Location: Rome (Italy)
The LNLS (Laboratório Nacional de Luz Síncrotron) is a national laboratory in Brazil that operates a 1.37 GeV storage ring for synchrotron light users since July 1997. Eleven bending magnet beamlines are open to a wide range of possibilities for research in ultra‐violet and X‐ray spectroscopy, single crystal and powder diffraction, magnetic and anomalous scattering, protein crystallography, X‐ray fluorescence, X‐ray lithography and small angle X‐ray scattering. The recent conclusion of the booster injector opened the way for insertion devices to be accommodated in the four straight sections available. A multipolar wiggler, for protein crystallography using the MAD technique, is the first planned to be installed during 2003. The construction of the first LNLS undulator, for the vaccum ultra‐violet and soft X‐ray domain, has already started and will expand the possibilities in atomic, molecular and surface physics, as well as in catalysis and magnetism. LNLS has expanded its infra‐structure as an open multidisciplinary research laboratory into complementary areas, such as electron and scanning probe microscopy, nanostructure synthesis and molecular biology. Many technological and scientific achievements have been attained in these last five years. Some of them will be highlighted here, with emphasis in the area of nanostructured and magnetic materials.

Five dystopian futures that wouldn't be that bad
Children of Men, Alfonso Cuaron's gritty and excellent film about a future where everyone has become sterile, plays tonight at the Denver FilmCenter as part of their recent sci-fi series. The film is a story about finding hope in an era of hopelessness. But gray skies and bombings aside, we don't necessarily think living in a world with no children would be all that bad.
Here are five dystopian futures that we'd be mostly okay with.
Children of Men
The Problem: Infertility.
The Side Effects: Societal collapse. Extreme government control in Britain. Environmental destruction. Terrorism.
Why it's not so bad: Have you ever been to a McDonalds playplace? Fuck a deserted island -- kids are monsters already. All everybody really needs is a slight change in their perception, and most of the secondary effects go away. No more Shrek movies. No more kids awkwardly accompanying their parents to adult-centered parties. Bouncy castle rentals for even cheaper than usual. No long lines at Disneyland. You can litter wherever you want. You can eat endangered species. No more Beiber.
The MatrixYou don't even have to live here.
The Problem: Machines have taken over and killed most of the humans after a long and bloody war.
The Side Effects: A small population of humans are left alive in the revolutionary city of Zion, and the rest live out their lives peacefully, without ever knowing they're in a dystopia, inside a computer program build to mimic the world of 1999.
Why it's not so bad: 1999 sucked, but it's better than the perpetual darkness and lightning and threat of Sentinel attack in the "real" world (although one of the saving graces of 1999 was the release of The Matrix. Fuck. Coolness paradox). It's a win-win, always: If you're in the machine, you don't know, and you live normally. If you do know, then you suddenly learn how to fly and do perfect Kung Fu and whatever else there's a program for. Wake up a for a second, learn some martial arts, go kill Fred Durst with your bare hands (he's just a program anyway). Was this a dystopia? I think now it's a Utopia.
Here's how you know it's not so bad: We could be living in it right now, and no one cares.
Demolition Man
The Problem: The big earthquake came along right when society was on the verge of collapse from crime and corruption.
The Side Effect: The world is perfect, if your definition of perfect is "What every crazy person thinks a completely liberal-run word would be like," aka, "The Libertarian Nightmare." There's no more crime, no war, no violence. There's also no salt, red meat, restaurants other than Taco Bell, bad language or anything remotely dark, violent, offensive or politically incorrect. There's no sex, unless it's virtual.
Why it's not so bad: Virtual sex! You could make your ugly boyfriend look like Clive Owen! There's no crime or violence. Movies and memorabilia and art from before the change are still legal to have and own, if you can find them. It ain't Farenheit 451. And if you disagree you can go live in the sewer, in the Libertarian promised land led by Denis Leary. He says the people are starving, but every time we see them and their sewers everyone looks happy and healthy. Whatever, we all know the free market will provide.

Hi folks:
My first post here, thanks in advance for any help. My wife and I are in the inspection stage of a 5 year old house in Phoenix, and I'm not sure how to read the amperage draw from the name plate. They are both Aire-Flo AFHEAT12B-36 units, 1 for each floor. I did very basic tests in AC mode, checking compressor amps after running them for 30 minutes and measuring the return and supply air temp differentials. Both seem good - 11 to 12 amps and 15 degrees F differential. The nameplate shows 17.9 RLA and 90 LRA. My question has to do with heat mode. At start up, amps on both units were about 12, and steadily climbed to 21 amps within 10 minutes. One unit reached 23 amps in 5 additional minutes, then dropped to 0 with a quiet hiss from the compressor which continued to run for about another 5 minutes at (I assume) no load. The other unit ran at 21 amps until I shut it off at the thermostat. I shut down the 23 amp unit, left it for 1/2 hour and repeated the test with the same result. Both units delivered plenty of heat into the house while the compressors were running. I'm not familiar at all with heat pumps, but 21 to 23 amps on a 17.9 amp system doesn't seem right. The thermostat was still calling for heat (I set it to 80) when the compressor cut out. If anyone can confirm this is likely a defective unit, I'll call in a tech to run proper tests, but I'd like to at least throw it out to you experts for an opinion. Thanks again for any suggestions. |

RLA is rated load amps. It is used for wiring and circuit protection sizing calculations. It is not the same as FLA (full load amps). RLA varies with load. It is not a constant number. One "authority" states that as long as the current does not exceed RLA/0.71, it is not excessive. Others say the RLA cannot be used to troubleshoot or evaluate HVAC equipment. The units are probably fine. |
- Posted by creek_side (My Page) on Sat, Jan 16, 10 at 8:56
My post could have been worded better. RLA doesn't actually change. It is a rating. The running amps change with load. |
The data plate for my 2 year-old heat pump says 13.4 Rated Load Amps. Amp draw is based on ambient temps. The technical operating data for my heat pump states that 13.4 amps are drawn at 35F ambient. A low draw occurs at -10F (7.5 amps) and a high draw of 19.3 amps at 65F. I'm going to guess that you are good to go. In cooling mode, my RLA occurs at 115F ambient. This was a good question. Best of luck with the new home. Take care. |
Thanks creek side and garyg. Good information, and I hope you guys are right because I really don't want to get into a conflict with the seller. I've always thought of RLA to mean 'run load amps' and LRA was 'locked rotor amps'. This one would draw 90 amps if the compressor seized, but I'm not sure where the manufacturer came up with 17.9 amps as a run load. I would think they would state the maximum amps the unit would draw under normal operating conditions, which in the case of AC might be about right, but not for heating. I suppose 23 amps to heat a single floor is still more efficient than a 15KW electric furnace which would take 63 amps. So what do you think about one of the compressors shutting down while still calling for heat? I guess I should have let it run at no load for a while longer to see if it kicked in again instead of shutting it off. |
RLA is rated, and as mentioned above the circuit wiring is sized to 125% of this number. LRA isLocked Rotor Amps and is used to size the overcurrent protection for the circuit. When an induction motor start up it pulls current that easily approaches the LRA since the rotor is not turning yet. This is often the cause of the dimming in other lights that briefly occurs when the unit starts. If the unit nameplate or installation instructions specify a circuit size, those numbers are used. many electricians size the wires for the breaker for a compressor, but this is not required. The unit will only draw this much current when it is loaded to full capacity, so the current will be lower on all but the worst days of heating or cooling. |

Are you sure the compressor shut down or the blower fan on the unit shut down? Usually on defrost mode the fan shuts down and the compressor continues to run but reversed in a/c mode to clean any frost off the coil. If this did happen it should have went back to normal in 10 minutes or so and the fan kick back on. |
Yes, the compressor ran for another 5 minutes before shutting off and leaving just the fan running. Kind of confusing because my clamp meter was reading 0.0, I would think even with no load it should still read a few amps. The fan and compressor sounds are distinctive, so I'm pretty sure I'm right. |
" Kind of confusing because my clamp meter was reading 0.0, I would think even with no load it should still read a few amps. " Once it is of the current flow had better be 0.0 |

WASHINGTON, October 9, 2013 — As the United States nears default and bands of furloughed workers walk the streets of Washington like hordes of non-essential undead, the stench of hypocrisy is in the air. Thicker than normal, it hangs in the atmosphere like humidity, a rank cloud of terrible irony.
While the government is taxing and spending this country into oblivion, the Washington Metro Area Transit Authority (WMATA) will not let you pass out of their gates into the World beyond if your Smart Trip card has a negative balance of $1.50. In new rules which took effect on October 1st, the Washington Metro Area Transit Authority has reduced the price of a SmarTrip from $5 to $2, and it has decreased the negative balance you can carry on your card and still exit.
SEE RELATED: SEALs Hit al-Shabaab and al-Qaeda; Africa Shift?
So, what? Why can't you as a responsible adult remember to put money on your card? Why don't you act like a normal person and just keep a positive balance?
The problem is that the SmarTrip is meant to help regular Metro riders by giving them a little break when they go over their fare, but they can't get back onto the Metro without paying off the balance and adding more to the card.
Another problem is that people are often absent minded and don't think about the balance and when that happens, they are stuck behind the fare-gates. You can't leave. You are trapped like a debtor prisoner in Victorian London and the only way you can add value to your card is by using the fare machine behind you.
However in keeping with the draconian manner of imprisonment, the fare machine only takes cash. And in a city where crime is high and pick pockets are swift, though nothing like roving bands of lovable Cockney rouges that steal your time piece and your hearts in Oliver Twist, people rarely carry cash. So, you find yourself stuck behind the gates like a middling soul in purgatory shouting at your roommate over a crowd of people and praying to the Lord that he has cash so you can spread your wings and fly to the above ground world where the furloughed workers drink themselves into a stupor like every night is Friday night. Without cash you are stuck behind the gates like the WMATA is stuck in the 1980's.
SEE RELATED: Dear Mr. President, if we are a business, we are a failing one
What does government debt and Smarttrip have in common?
The WMATA is a government agency which reports directly to the Council of the District of Columbia, which is overseen directly by the Federal Government. The same Federal Government that is $17 trillion in debt. If you haven't noticed, trillion has 12 zeros. That is also the same Federal Government that oversees the group that says "No metro riders, you can only go $1.50 into negative on your SmarTrip, because we are losing too much money and are terrible at managing our finances."
To recap, the US government can go $17 trillion in debt and edge closer to default, but a Metro rider can't go over $1.50 on the SmarTrip card that he has to repay to ride the Metro again in the first place.
Readers who are not from Washington will not really care about this, and they will probably say "well why don't you just watch the balance on your card?" And while they are right that as an adult who may or may not contribute to society you are expected to act like an adult and get your finances in order which includes maintaining your SmarTrip balance.
However, two things. One, how is it in any way shape or form okay and or legal to say that you cannot leave unless you pay the balance off your card, while not providing every means necessary to make said payment? There is no card reader, and there is no ATM machine behind the gates if you don't have the cash and you can't get it you cannot leave. They bar the gates. You shall not pass. Do not pass go, and do not collect $17 trillion.
You could ask a Metro employee to let you through to use the ATM but that both defeats the purpose and is not the point, and it also inconveniences a government employee who obviously has better things to do,
Secondly, who is the government to say "you can't go too much into deficit on your card"? How do they have any kind of moral or fiscal leg to stand on to tell riders that? $17 trillion.
That is part of the irony that hangs in the air in DC, that is part of the problem of why there are so many disenfranchised government employees, contractors, and lobbyists wandering the streets on weeknights partying like they don't have work in the morning because they don't. And they don't have work because the government can't be bothered to practice what they preach. WMATA is steeped in debt, operating at a nearly $90 million deficit.
If they wanted to make more money perhaps they should, perhaps, take advantage of the ample potential ad space they have? Could that be a possibility? Instead of increasing taxes on commuters who use the roads to pay for commuters who use the rails, you could get sponsors to plaster their logos all over the giant gray creepy ceilings? Just food for thought, brought to you by 7-11 (see how it works?).
Until the government utilizes free market capitalism and open up ad space in the tunnels and on the walls the WMATA will be operating at a loss. Until the government fixes their budget this new SmarTrip card will continue to be an exercise in irony. And until the WMATA puts card readers or ATM machines behind the pearly gates people will continue to be caught behind them, subject to "bill only" machines in a cashless age.
Perhaps after time, their numbers will grow and they will dwell in the tunnels and develop their own language, even maybe trading with the surface world for supplies and novelized versions of their favorite movies and TV shows. Alas, until those card readers come, roving groups of cashless Metro riders could be reduced to singing for cash at the gates Acapella style, you could even start your own group and call them the Washington Metronomes. Maybe, just maybe, that would make it all worth it.

A Practical Plan for Personal Prayer
This latest book by Dick Eastman, the author of No Easy Road (almost 500,000 copies in print), provides the reader with a challenge that, if accepted, wilt change not only his personal world but also the vast world around him.
Filled with practical suggestions for revitalized prayer, this unique book describes a plan by which the Christian who wants to improve his prayer life can reach his goal.
Every Christian, says Dick Eastman, has the gift of 24 hours in each day, and should be confronted with the challenge to use one of those hours in prayer and Bible study. One hour per day adds up to 365 hours per year — 45 eight-hour days! Accumulated, those sixty minutes per day represent an awesome potential for change in the life of the Christian and the world around him.
Some Christians ask, "How can anyone possibly pray for an entire hour'?' Dick Eastman responds with a unique twelve-step prayer program. Each hour is divided into twelve five-minute 'points of focus," a plan that will aid any sincere Christian in the development of a consistent daily devotional habit.

Win tickets to opening night of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer Musical. Boston, December 9.
Read Morethe blog
Annie the Musical...Review
Annie is an iconic stage production that I'm fairly certain everyone has heard of. When I was a kid, it was also an iconic movie. I would guess that most children of the 70's and 80's grew up watching that movie over and over again, annoying siblings and parents. I wasn't fortunate enough to see the original stage production which is part of the reason I jumped at the chance to attend opening night of Annie in Boston.
If you are a fan of Annie, you can't miss this musical during it's Boston run through November 16th.
The rundown:
The production brings to life the classic Annie that you know and love whether you were a fan of the original musical or the movie.
The production is stellar with amazing seamless set design and costumes.
The cast was phenomenal. Annie ( Issie Swickle) was incredible and no scene with Molly (Lilly Mae Stewart) went without a huge laugh.
You'll be singing along to all of your favorite songs like " Hard Knock Life" and " Tomorrow".
I brought Coraline (age 5) and she loved the entire production. I think she might be the smallest age that would be able to sit through the long performance. I made the decision to leave Arya (age 3) at home because it would be too long for her attention span. Definitely a kid friendly show and I would just use good judgement.
The theatre has booster seats for smaller kids.
Tickets are on sale now!

One of my favorite Halloween parties is coming this weekend, October 26. PruBoo is a day full of great holiday fun all inside The Shops at Prudential Center. Trick or Treat from store to store, craft tables, live music...your kids will be asleep in the car on the way home for sure.
Read More7 Letter Words
I'm not writing. Which is weird because I just attended a panel at MOM 2.0 Summit entitled "Writing Through Hard Times". The thing is, you can't always write through everything in public. I have a thing about airing dirty laundry, there are tons of things I keep to myself. This has been one of them but for the sake of honesty I think I should at least say I'm still here. I just can't write through this.
Divorce can be super easy, or so I hear. I wouldn't really know. It is not an easy road right now and I can't talk about any of it. Just like when you are getting married or having a baby, getting a divorce is a huge life event. Huge life events tend to be all encompassing in your mind. It's the only thing you are thinking about, the only thing you are talking about. So, I can't write. I can't talk about much aside from getting my life worked out.
I haven't dropped off the face of the Earth. I am here and I will write again when the time is right.
Bye Bye Baby Weight
I've definitely eluded to the fact that I have this lingering amount of baby weight. It's super frustrating for me. After each girl was born I had no problem (I mean I literally put in zero effort) losing the accumulated weight; quickly dropping right back down to my normal size 4. Before you get jealous and think I'm some kind of stick person, I am not, I am also a small person so it makes sense to be a small size. The past two years however, have sucked. I've never been so stressed and in turn unhappy with my appearance in all my life.
Last year, I started running. I hate the gym, Yoga has never been my thing but it turns out I love running. I completed a 5k and everything. That's a huge step for someone who would rather be drinking beer and listening to music. The thing is, I lost no weight. None. I only check my weight every month because I was just so sick of seeing that number without change.
Then, I went and added injury to insult by twisting my ankle so badly (while walking) that I had to go to the emergency room. So now? I can't run. I had an Air Cast and crutches for a while. Then no crutches. I'm finally down to an ace bandage sometimes and mostly ok walking. But running seems so far away.
Something had to give. I started a 30 day Ab challenge at the beginning of the month. I mean, my stomach is my problem area but I really just wanted to work out so badly. I started to feel so run down not, well, running. Most exercise involves your ankle in some way, something I quickly realized. Sit Ups and Crunches I can totally do. And I am! I'm really proud.
Diet. It's a word not in my everyday vocabulary until I happened upon this book, The Dukan Diet. I admit i was totally skeptical but let me tell you how much I have changed my tune in a week.
I lost 5lbs. In 4 days. 4 days. Seriously. It's amazing. I feel so much better already, less bloated and lethargic. I feel like I have more energy. I feel like I am also reteaching myself discipline. Making decisions to stay the course instead of taking the easy way out. I'm not a nutritionist or anything of the sort so I can't say what everyone should do. But for me, it's been an awesome few weeks health wise.
Now, I can't wait to step on the scale and see how my hard work has paid off.
PBS Kids: Martha Speaketh Weeketh
We are such big fans of PBS Kids that when watching any other channels my children become confused by the weird commercials. It's one of the many reasons I love the station so much. Obviously, every show the girls watch on PBS is educational, even the ones I don't like as an adult have educational value.
Lucky for me, Martha Speaks is one of the shows I enjoy. If you aren't familiar the premise is fairly simple, a family with a dog that speaks when she eats alphabet soup. It's definitely cute and kids of all ages seem to love talking animals.
June 16 is the start of Martha Speeketh Weeketh. Personally, I am really ready for some fresh episodes. The girls will watch the same things over and over without complaint.
I can't thank PBS enough for sending the girls two of the episodes from Martha Speaketh Weeketh before they air. I have to say, I am loving the episode"Thou Callest Me Dog". Martha eats part of a Shakespearean play and starts to speak Elizabethan English, complete with soliloquies.
Your kids are going to love all the new episodes during Martha Speaketh Weeketh.
Here's a handy rundown of the episodes you can expect. With many kids out of school for the summer, a new week of shows could be a great transition for the whole family.
June 16th
Thou Callest Me a Dog
A dog speaking Shakespeare? 'Tis a consumation devoutly to be wished and achieved when Martha swallowsHamlet. Never was a dog's desire for meat so artfully expressed.
Martha's Paper Chase
It's the Town Crier deadline and Carolina needs a headline. Hot on the trail for a story, and a biscuit, Senior Canine Reporter Martha stumbles into a scoop that screams front page: the whereabouts of Big Minnie. But is exposing Minnie's privacy worth the story?
June 17th

June 18th
Tomato, You Say
Why is there a tomato on T.D.'s shirt? Helen's eager to know. Unfortunately, she'd have an easier time getting Martha to skip breakfast than getting a straight answer from T.D. Will she ever find out?
Martha Questions
Is Martha only speaking in questions? Why would that be? Can Skits help her figure it out? Did somebody put something funny in her soup? Will the questions ever stop???
June 19th
Oh, Noooo!
Granny Flo's Alphabet Soup is taking a licking from the competition, Oodles of Os. If Granny Flo goes out of business, how will Martha communicate? To increase sales, Helen, Martha, and T.D. set out to convince Granny Flo to advertise on the popular TV show, International Icon. Who will Granny Flo choose as a spokesperson?
Bye, Martha
Nefarious con artist Weaselgraft hatches a scheme to kidnap Martha by pretending to be Martha's long-lost owner . . . from Poland. The family sniffs something suspicious, but why has Martha suddenly begun speaking Polish? Will they really have to say pozegnalny to Martha?
June 20th
Martha Sings
Martha wakes up singing and not just because she's happy. She can't stop! Helen and Martha visit the vet, some musicians, and an opera singer, trying to discover the source of her musical malady to no avail. Will Martha ever be able to talk without a tempo again?
TD Makes the Band
Everybody's singing about Shecky the Sea Lion and it's driving TD nuts! He could write a better song than that, and that's just what he's going to do! He recruits the gang to join his band and then sets out to write a hit song. . . . about Belgium? Inspiration strikes, but what will they do for an encore?
Laid Back Mama at Mommybites Boston
I've had a little radio silence these past weeks. Gathering thoughts and processing what I learned at Mom 2.0 Summit in Atlanta. But I'm not gone!
You can also find me now at Mommybites Boston blogging as The Laid Back Mama. Exclusive content you will only find there. Head over and show some love for my brand new column.
Laid Back Mama
The Morning I Leave
I suffer from extreme anxiety. Extreme. I normally handle this very well and if I didn't mention it, you wouldn't have known. The weird thing is, for some inexplicable reason, it manifests itself as travel anxiety. It's very difficult to explain what that means. I am not worried about anything at all. In fact, I'm a seasoned traveler. I don't think there will be anything out of the ordinary at all but i'm anxious. It starts days in advance as a knot in my stomach. I can't eat as much. I pace more. I plan and make lists but it doesn't seem to make the anxiety subside.
Read MorePersonal Style vs Mom Style
I always thought I had a strong personal style. I've never been on the cutting edge of trendy fashion or anything, but I knew who I was. My entire life has been spent dressing accordingly. My clothing choices were a point of much amusement for peers when I was a kid. I got teased a lot. I held my head up and didn't waiver in my style. Ironically "Hipster" is now a thing, I'm pretty certain that is how I dressed in elementary school.

Where can i get an ae-ae banana in dallas, texas? I have been looking but I cannot find one. Does anyone have a pup of an ae-ae Banana i can have? i am desperate to get one. |
Follow-Up Postings:
If you've been looking around for an Ae Ae, then you know how expensive they are. Most people with them would never just give them away. There are several sellers on eBay. Most of the time they sell for close to $200. Stokes Tropicals sells them also; www.stokestropicals.com. You will most likely have to container grow it in Dallas;they get pretty tall and would not likely be hardy in the ground there. Steve |

How To 301 Redirect HTTPS to HTTP with .htaccess
11,Jul - Author Steve Peron
In some rare instances Google may start unintentionally indexing pages on your site with "https" as well as "http". All it takes is one inbound link pointing to "https" version of a page. Technically, this creates duplicate content issues and will confuse Google on what page to rank.
Also, if Google decides to rank "https" page and you do not have a SSL certificate user will be prompted with a warning message which will discourage people from visiting.
To solve this issue on a Apache Server with .htaccess file you would use the following code:

6 Common Mistakes with DIY Web Development and SEO
11,Apr - Author Cameron Davis
For new or small business owners, all too often I come across common problems with their first attempt at creating a website. After several months of wondering why their site is getting little to no traffic, I get the call for "HELP!" The truth of it is that spending a little more time (and maybe money) initially can actually save you money in the long run – and – get your online presence off to a running start. Here are a few friendly tips (and pitfalls to avoid) when creating your website.
1) Use open source software. Open source software refers to platforms (like WordPress or Magento) where the source code is free and available to the general public for use ...
Site Being De-Indexed From Bing? It Might Be Your Hosting
09,Jan - Author Steve Peron
Finding your website traffic from Bing / Yahoo organic dropping dramatically can be alarming. What is one to do?
First Step: Don't Panic!
There is always a logical explanation for everything – the key is knowing where to look.
Step Two: Start Looking
First thing is to determine the possible causes:
- Link Penalty
