Penn Energy Renewables And Canadian Solar Expand EPC Agreement For The Construction Of An Additional 10 MW Solar Power Project In Ontario
GUELPH and TORONTO, Ontario, Oct. 16, 2012 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Canadian Solar Inc. (NASDAQ: CSIQ) (the "Company", or "Canadian Solar"), one of the world's largest solar power companies, today announced that its subsidiary, Canadian Solar Solutions Inc., has expanded its relationship with Penn Energy Renewables Ltd. ("Penn Energy") with an additional 10MW (AC) turnkey engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") contract and operations and maintenance ("OM") agreement for the construction and operation of a solar power project in Ontario by Canadian Solar for Penn Energy. This latest agreement brings the total EPC and OM agreement between the two companies to 28.7MW (AC). Construction of the newest solar power plant will begin in the fourth quarter of 2012, with the facility expected to be fully operational by the third quarter of 2013. Construction on the previously announced solar power projects, representing 18.7MW (AC), is underway and expected to be fully operational by the summer of 2013.
"Our mission is to provide homes, businesses and schools with solar power that connects directly to existing electrical distribution lines. It is critical to our success that we have a strong EPC partner, which we have found with Canadian Solar," said Sean McCloskey, Penn Energy Renewables Ltd.
"Penn Energy has a very forward looking vision for solar power and this utility-scale solar installation is notably the third project of our successful partnership," said Dr. Shawn Qu, chairman and chief executive officer of Canadian Solar. "These projects will significantly contribute to the growth of solar powered energy and job creation in the Ontario market, and extend our position as a leading provider of solar energy solutions in Canada."
The latest utility-scale solar power project will power approximately 1,462 homes and is expected to prevent approximately 234,440 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions over the 20-year period. In addition, the installation will include approximately 46,000 Canadian Solar CS6P high-performance modules, which have been formally tested and awarded international certifications validating the quality of the Company's products. The solar power plant is expected to create more than 100 new jobs during the development and construction phases of the project.

Sorry, did some more research
Sorry, did some more research and found plenty of twin mattresses at 38". Shouldn't have trusted wikipedia.
The second question still stands.
If you are looking for a classic farmhouse style bed for your child's room, this is the project for you. Featuring simple styling, large headboard and footboard tops, substantial legs, sturdy siderails, and the option to go with or without a boxspring, this beautiful bed is definitely worth your sweat!
Special thanks to Kristine for sharing her photos.
Projects built from this plan. Thank you for submitting brag posts, it's appreciated by all!
Shopping List for Headboard and Footboard
2 – 4×4 Posts (8′ Length)
4 – 1×4 (8′ Length)
4 - 1×6 (8′ Length)
1 – 2×4 (8′ Length)
1 – 2×6 (8′ Length)
Shopping List for Rails (If you do not have a metal frame already)
3 - 2×4 (Can be stud length or 8′ length)
2 – 1×10 (8′ length)
2x2s if you need slats
Please review the plans for the Queen Sized Farmhouse bed with Arch and the plans for the Queen Sized Farmhouse Bed. Because the building process is essentially the same, I will just provide information on how to modify the existing plan for the queen sized farmhouse bed.
A) 2 – 4×4 Posts @ 54″ (Legs)
B) 4 – 1×4 @ 38 1/2″ (Panel Trim)
C) 7 – 1×6 @ 30″ (Planks for Panel)
D) 1 – 2×4 @ 45 1/2″ (Top of Legs and Panel)
E) 1 – 2×6 @ 47 1/2″ (Top of Headboard)
F) 2 – 4×4 Posts @ 21″ (Legs)
G) 4 – 1×4 @ 38 1/2″ (Panel Trim)
H) 7 – 1×6 @ 15″ (Planks for Panel)
I) 1 – 2×4 @ 45 1/2″ (Top of Legs and Panel)
J) 1 – 2×6 @ 47 1/2″ (Top of Footboard)
Side Rails
K) 2- 2×4 @ 80 1/2″ (Side Rail Cleats)
L) 2- 1×10 @ 76 1/2″ (Side Rail Trim)
M) 2 – 2×4 @ 35 1/2″ (Rails Supports on Headboard and Footboard)
Build the headboard by first lining all the panel boards out and attaching the panel trim boards with 1 1/4" nails and glue. Attach from the back to hide holes. Then attach the panel to the legs, then attach the 2x4 header to the legs (top) and panel (top) followed by the 2x6 header centered on the top of the headboard.
If you already have a metal frame and boxspring, you are done with the building process. If you have a box spring, you can make the side rails as shown below. Also, you can choose the heights of your rails and cleats depending on the thickness of your mattresses and box springs, and whether or not you want underbed storage or trundle.
Top view of the side rails.
If you do not have a box spring, you can place 2×2 every six inches on top of the side rail cleats. Screw in place. Then add mattress to the top.

I also do not want the mattress( i will be using a box spring) to "sit" above the end of footboard. please Ana , help! i want specific measurements prior to going to buy supplies.

any clue where to get them down here in the south that arent pressure treated? anyone know if 84 lumber would have?
Hey Ana & fellow Ana-White Fans!
I have a question I hope someone can help me out with.
This plan calls for the side-rails to be 76.5" long while on other twin bed plans such as the "Simple Bed" & "Kentwood" the side rails are supposed to be 75" long.
Am I missing why this beds side-rails longer than the other beds?
Thank you!! :)
Michele123 replied on Permalink
If I want to make my headboard fro plywood instead of beaded, what size plywood do I need to cut? I'm new at this and want to reduce complexities...
i have a few questions i,m starting to make the farm house bed twin size
1st question is why are the rails that connect the head board n foot board 76.5 inches long every mattress is diffrent length i found one that is 75 inches long so does that mean i should cut the rails 75 inches long not 76.5?
2nd is how can a 39 inch wide box spring fit inside your opening if there is only 35.5 inches inside to inside please help me out on this thanks
KarpeDiem replied on Permalink
1. The length of the side supports is 76.5" and not 75" because the mattress will/could sit at the same height as the top of the footboard. This top piece is a 2x6 so it overhangs a bit when place on the 4x4's. The extra 1.5" allows for the mattress to still fit. Check out completed pictures to see where the mattresses end up.
2. The 35.5" width is the width of the 2x4 rail supports for the headboard and foot board. Notice on the drawings how the supports are placed inside the 2x4 side rail cleats. Resulting in a width of 38.5" which should fit most twin boxsprings.

USDA Consults with Latino Faith Leaders on Ways to Address Hunger
In early October, the Center for Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships at the U.S. Department of Agriculture was honored to host a dozen Latino faith leaders to our "Tuve Hambre y Me Diste de Comer" ("For I was Hungry and You Fed Me") consultation on improving hunger-related engagement in the Latino community. USDA studies show that 1 out of 4 Hispanic households in the US are food insecure and that this number is only growing. The situation is well-known among these leaders whose congregations and organizations are on the front lines of serving those threatened by hunger.
Participants in this convening shared their successes and challenges feeding the hungry and promoting SNAP and other nutrition programs in their respective communities. Angel Gutierrez of Catholic Charities shared how in Chicago they are able to provide food, access to social services, job training and educational programs through their WIC Food and Nutrition centers and the Summer Food Service Program. In fact, they were able to increase the meals served to children during the summer months to 275,000 by partnering with 105 community sites last year. In addition, Ricardo Moreno of Bread for the World offered insightful remarks on the need for government to "communicate and produce resources at the level where people are." Echoing this approach was Duke Storen, Food and Nutrition Service's Director of Strategic Partnerships. Storen emphasized that the consultation served as a time of listening for USDA officials. The group also heard from Joshua DuBois, Executive Director of the White House Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships and USDA Undersecretary Ed Avalos.
The morning session provided guests with information about USDA food assistance programs. Stimulating conversation continued into lunch during USDA's 2010 Hispanic Heritage Food Fiesta. The consultation wrapped up with hopeful reflections from invited leaders, who expressed their intention to continue empowering Latino families in their struggle against hunger. They also made commitments to expand outreach for USDA's nutrition assistance programs.
It's easy to think that ending hunger is an insurmountable task and that no one individual can have an impact on this issue. However, this convening left participants optimistic that through partnerships with faith-based organizations, we can work together to make sure every family has access to filling and nutritious food.
Max Finberg is Director of the USDA Center for Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships.

Dawson is Awesome
The AISD Facility Master Plan Task Force continues to consider options to reduce AISD's budget. One of the options back on the table is the closure of Mollie Dawson Elementary, moving all students to Becker Elementary. The Dawson campus is in excellent condition with ready access for ALL students to ALL classroom areas, special needs included. In a location that is easily accessible from many south-central Austin neighborhoods, the grounds offer tremendous space for expansion while still providing plenty of area for fitness and other activities in one large, enclosed, safe space. Please sign this petition to support Dawson staying open and continuing to provide a high quality learning program for ALL of our amazing students at the high achievement levels that have become the Dawson tradition!"

This school is really wonderful, also, their teachers are committed to their jobs. Brenda Lewis is a teacher there and she taught my sister and I, and I thank Dawson for teaching me that education is the way to go. Lets go Dolphins!

Get the Look: September's British Belles
- Fashion
Bonnie Wright, Imogen Poots, Jamie Campbell Bower, Jessica Brown Findlay, and Hannah Murray, photographed in London by Michael Roberts.
After seasons of rocker-chic trends—bold shoulders, leather pieces, and zipper embellishments—gracing the runway, Marc Jacobs brought back demure femininity circa the 1950s with Louis Vuitton's fall R.T.W. collection show last spring. At a photo shoot for Vanity Fair's September issue, British starlets Bonnie Wright, Imogen Poots, Jessica Brown Findlay, and Hannah Murray wore the collection's elegant closing looks: four billowing ball gowns. The actresses looked posh, posing with fellow star-to-be Jamie Campbell Power at the site of Robin Birley's new club in London. Stylist Sebastien Richard used Bumble & Bumble products to give the ladies lush curls and sleek locks. What about their makeup? Makeup artist Mary Greenwell used Burberry's recently launched makeup line—a perfect fit for these British belles. Herewith, a rundown of the products used on set.

Countless millions of people have died from tuberculosis, a chronic infectious disease caused by the tubercle bacillus. The complete genome sequence of the best-characterized strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, H37Rv, has been determined and analysed in order to improve our understanding of the biology of this slow-growing pathogen and to help the conception of new prophylactic and therapeutic interventions. The genome comprises 4,411,529 base pairs, contains around 4,000 genes, and has a very high guanine + cytosine content that is reflected in the biased amino-acid content of the proteins. M. tuberculosis differs radically from other bacteria in that a very large portion of its coding capacity is devoted to the production of enzymes involved in lipogenesis and lipolysis, and to two new families of glycine-rich proteins with a repetitive structure that may represent a source of antigenic variation.

View the total Lunar Eclipse. Park in the row furthest from the dunes facing M-109.
A lunar eclipse occurs when the full Moon crosses into the Earth's shadow. The trick to seeing an eclipse is to be on the night time part of the earth when it happens. In this area on April 15, the Moon enters Earth's outer shadow, called the penumbra, at 12:53 a.m. About 30 to 45-minutes later, when the Moon is deeper into the penumbra, one might notice that the left side (eastern side) of the Moon is darker relative to the opposite side. Sunglasses actually help to view the penumbral stage of the eclipse. The shadow will get increasingly more visible before the partial eclipse starts. The partial phase, when the Moon starts to enter Earth's inner shadow, begins at about 1:58 a.m. Binoculars or a telescope can be used to watch Earth's shadow cross the features of the Moon.
Just after 3:06 a.m., the eclipse will reach totality. By that time, the Moon will be completely immersed in Earth's inner shadow. Viewing will be quite easy with the naked eye. The Moon will generally be red due to the sunrises and sunsets happening on Earth at the same time. The Moon will begin to emerge from the Earth's umbra at 4:24 a.m. The ending of the partial phase will be at 5:33 a.m. As long as the skies are clear, the Dune Climb is an excellent location to view this kind of astronomical phenomenon.

Options in genetic engineering
I am a Plus Two student with biology and mathematics as my subjects. I would like to know about the institutions that offer an engineering degree in genetic engineering and the related career prospects. Do IITs offer B.Tech. courses in genetic engineering?
Genetic engineering is not a mainstream course and it is offered only by a few institutions. Genetic engineering is the scientific process by which the genetic make up of an organism is manipulated by introducing or eliminating specific genes. Genetic engineering involves specialisation related to plants, animals and human beings.
Those aspiring to study genetics or genetic engineering should study physics, chemistry, mathematics and biology at the Plus Two level.
Genetics comes under the broad area of biotechnology. The biotechnology industry depends on genetics to produce pharmaceutical products such as insulin and other medicines. In the medical field, genetics focuses on diseases. It strives to understand the molecular basis of diseases and their cure.
Biotechnology plays a major role in industrial production, especially in biochemical engineering. It involves the integration of many branches of biology such as microbiology, biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology with chemical and systems engineering. Most Universities offer genetics not as a separate discipline, but as a subsidiary in the biotechnology, microbiology and biochemistry streams.
Study options
At the B.Tech level, genetic engineering courses are very rare. So after Plus Two, students can opt for B.Tech. course in biotechnology and biochemical engineering. Another option is to undergo a three-year B.Sc. degree course in genetics, biological sciences, life sciences or biotechnology and then go for post graduation in genetics.
SRM University, Chennai, offers a four-year B.Tech. course in genetic engineering on its Ramapuram campus. Those who have passed 10 + 2 with at least 50 per cent marks in aggregate for biology, physics and chemistry are eligible for admission. Selection is based on a national level entrance test. Thiruvananthapuram and Kochi will be among the test centres. For more details visit www.srmuniv.ac.in or contact SRM University, West Mambalam, Chennai – 600033.
