How Can We Reduce Solar Soft Costs? Part 3: Lowering Customer Acquisition Costs
A lot of consumers express interest in solar, but close to 95% of those never follow through. It can cost thousands for a solar company to acquire each customer. That makes customer acquisition the largest portion of balance-of-system soft costs for solar.[read more]
Technology transforms the utility business model
A modern grid for the 21st century will require the power industry to move over time to a more de-centralized paradigm, one that embraces distributed generation, storage and energy management systems. New complexities will arise, including large mobile loads (PHEVs, EVs), interconnected microgrids and multi-directional flows of energy and information. Nimble third parties are already seizing the initiative.[read more]

I asked Dylan Slater, Rip Curl's sports marketing director in Costa Mesa, if plans have changed now that Stephanie Gilmore and Mick Fanning took home the world titles.
Here's what he had to say:
Yes, it's extremely rare to have simultaneous men's and women's ASP World Champions. If you think about how much the top companies in the industry have invested in not only the quality of athletes but also the quantity of athletes, to have the champions from each gender is a very rare occasion.
We plan to promote the title as the pinnacle of all competitive achievements. For a competitive surfer, it doesn't get any better than winning the world title. The impact of Steph/product driven marketing will hopefully increase with her association as the World Champion.
Whether it's our latest girls' boardshort, watch, or apparel, her association with the title will hopefully impact the girls' product range across all categories. It's undetermined whether we will be producing Stephanie Gilmore-specific product.
Yes, we plan to definitely bump up the marketing more, as it has been 16 years since Rip Curl's last world champion. We realize this is a very special occasion, and we definitely plan on communicating that to our customer.
While the world title is fresh, we hope to push it through the Web via online banners, video clips, etc. In-store point of purchase will also be crucial because we are the only major brand that can push the message that we have the current world champs.

Two new shops for Carlisle before Christmas
Last updated at 11:15, Saturday, 10 November 2012
Two new shops are opening in Carlisle city centre before Christmas.
Chloe's Closet – a children's clothing boutique – opens in the former Piers Christian shop on Fisher Street/Treasury Court today.
And a sweet and gift shop called Grandma's Treats is opening in the former Benetton store at Greenmarket .
Meanwhile, elsewhere in the city centre two shops are temporarily closed for refurbishments to take place.
The Aga shop on Lowther Street closed its doors on Monday and will re-open on November 29.
Workmen are inside the building carrying out the transformation which is said to be costing thousands of pounds.
Manager Claire Bonfield, who has worked at the shop for two years, said: "It's really nice that, in the current economic climate, Aga has decided to invest in its Carlisle store. The shop has been there for about 16 years.
"We had a new demo kitchen installed earlier this year. Some Aga's have been taken out and are being dismantled and some are staying while the refurbishment takes place.
"We are getting new flooring, new ceilings and a range of new cookware.
A celebration day is planned for December 8 when the Mayor of Carlisle, David Wilson, and Mayoress, Catherine Wilson, will cut a ribbon.
BBC presenter Kevin Fernihough will also be attending as well as Joanne Masterton-Brown from the Cutie Pie Cake Company and Liz and David Ogden from Corkscrew Wines.
Claire said: "We will also have home economist Dawn Roads with us who will be doing cooking demonstrations on the Aga and there will be canapes."
Greenwoods menswear store on English Street is also having a refurbishment and is expected to open shortly.
Stan's Kids Shoes on Warwick Road is closing down.
Former plumber Stan Turczynski, who is originally from Poland, set up the shop in September 2011.

I am constantly inspired by the complex and yet simply play within
the energies of living and life with their tangible providence found
within the rich and natural surroundings where I live and work. I find
that abstract expressionism and experimentation suits me best through mixed media, though I
enjoy mixing in primitive symbolism when the piece demands it. It
depends on the moment and how I feel I might need to communicate an idea
or how the force and energy of an idea is leading me to express it.
I also went bananas about 5 years back and started what amounts to a real micro farm. I have goats for milk and meat, rabbits, chickens and composting worms as well as garden space. A lot to learn.

Inpatient rehab saved my life. I now cherish every day of it and have the tools necessary to overcome my addictions. Recovery is possible for anyone.Josh G. *San Diego, CA 2012
Missouri Tramadol addiction treatments programs offer something for everyone. From private exclusive residential choices to stay-at-home programs. People frequently wonder which is better for themselves, their spouse or their child. The answer really depends on the person. While outpatient Tramadol programs allow the addict to quit usingsubstances at their own pace in their own environment, this is not always beneficial in the long run. Many of the issues that contributed to the abuse of drugs and alcohol will be close to home as well. This is why medical studies illustrate the replase rate being lessened for sixty and ninety day inpatient substance abuse treatment. Fortunately, many private clinics present a positive, comfortable living situation for their clients, as well as ReVia, Vivitrol or other medically-assisted programs when appropriate.
If you or a loved one wants to get help for a Tramadol addiction in Missouri, our phone lines are staffed around the clock with expert advisors, waiting to be of assistance. Don't let an addiction go on any longer than it already has due to the concern you won't choose one of the best rehab centers. We will assist you in finding one at 1-800-660-0986.

A coating contractor and a staffing agency are each facing $7,000 in proposed penalties after a temporary worker died from excessive heat while performing surface preparation work on a ship docked at the Naval Operations Base in Norfolk, VA.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration announced the citations Oct. 31 against B R Flowers & Co. Inc., a ship repair company in Hampton, VA, and Tidewater Staffing Inc., a provider of temporary staffing in Portsmouth, VA.
Both were cited for a serious violation of OSHA's general-duty clause after a temporary worker died in July from excessive heat while cleaning up debris on the deck of the USS Nitze in preparation for coating work.
According to OSHA, the violation involves failing to develop and implement procedures for protecting workers while working outside during extreme temperature conditions.
97°F Heat
Both companies face a proposed fine of $7,000, the maximum penalty for a serious violation. A serious violation occurs when there is substantial probability that death or serious physical harm could result from a hazard the employer knew or should have known about.
OSHA cited a ship repair company and a temporary staffing agency after a temporary worker died from excessive heat while working on the deck of the USS Nitze.
According to the citation documents, employees were preparing the ship deck for a non-skid coating application in direct sunlight with temperatures reaching 97°F. An employee who was performing cleanup operations collapsed about 6 p.m. ET and was transported to a local hospital, where he later died.
The citation documents can be viewed here (B R Flowers) and here (Tidewater Staffing).
"This tragedy underscores how critical it is for employers to ensure frequent access to water, rest and shade during the hot summer months, and ensure awareness among workers about how to recognize and respond to signs of heat-related illness," MaryAnn Garrahan, OSHA's regional administrator in Philadelphia, said in a press release.
B R Flowers specializes in deck coating removal and application. Tidewater Staffing, headquartered in Chesapeake, VA, offers a variety of staffing services from four locations in Virginia and one in Florida.
No one was available to comment at Tidewater Staffing or B R Flowers on Tuesday (Nov. 5).
Both companies have 15 business days from receipt of the citations and proposed penalties to comply, contest, or ask for an informal conference with OSHA.
OSHA's Campaign
OSHA's Heat Illness Prevention Campaign aims to raise awareness and teach workers and employers about the dangers of working in hot weather. The campaign, which started in 2011, offers resources to address heat-related illnesses.

Smoke Free, stop smoking help
★ See how long you've been smoke free
★ The money you've saved from not smoking
★ The number of cigarettes you've not smoked
★ How your health is improving
★ Earn badges for your progress
★ Share your successes with your friends
★ Record your cravings in a diary
★ And more
This is the app that science built. Proven techniques to help you stop smoking are delivered in a beautifully clear and very human way. The calculator tells you how much money you've saved and how many cigarettes you've not smoked, the calendar tells you how long you've been smoke free and how much life you've regained, bars show you how giving up smoking is improving your health, and a diary shows how your cravings for cigarettes are decreasing over time. Plus filling it out seems to help, even if you only use it to vent.
Filling it out also helps us, because this is the app that science is building. If you give us permission, we'll use the information you give us to learn how to help even more people stop smoking. As you know, quitting smoking is hard. But tens of thousands of people do it successfully each month (especially if that month is Stoptober). We want to know more about what works and what doesn't and your data can help future quitters quit.
The quit process
Here's what we know so far. The science is pretty clear that nicotine replacement therapy helps people stop smoking. But it needs to be taken as directed (many people don't complete the course) and that means it's best if you get it from your doctor rather than the pharmacist. But don't worry if you don't want to use NRT, this is your quit, you do what works for you. The other golden rule about giving up smoking is to make your mantra 'not one more puff'. Because one puff almost always leads to more and you're soon back smoking again. It doesn't seem to matter how much confidence you've got about quitting and nor does it matter if you plan your quit ahead or quit or the spur of the moment. The social support you get from programs such as Stoptober are helpful but what really seems important is getting a real understanding of how much progress you've made, all the benefits you gain from giving up smoking and all that you'd have to lose by starting smoking again. Giving you that is the core way this app hopes to keep you smoke free.
Electronic cigarettes
E-cigs seem to help lots of people stop smoking. The ones that look like cigarettes seem less effective than ones you get from specialist vape shops. They also seem pretty safe, much safer than smoking cigarettes. However, we don't have much long-term evidence so it's probably best to use them as a way to stop smoking, rather than a replacement for cigs.
The experiment
We're running an on-going experiment that tests different things to help people give up smoking. Everyone gets all the features mentioned above, the calculator that shows how many cigarettes you've not smoked, the calendar that tells you how long you've been smoke free, the bars that show how your health has improved from giving up smoking.
Some people will get additional features. We can't tell you what they are, partly because it might invalidate the experiment, partly because they change frequently. Don't feel you're missing out though. We don't know if these things will help people stop smoking, we just want to learn whether they do. Don't worry that they'll want to make you smoke more either. We would never try anything we thought might make people more likely to smoke.
This is all entirely voluntary and you can use the app fully without taking part in the experiment. Your data will be kept anonymous and you can delete it at any time. But we really hope you take part because everyone who does will help the quitters who follow. So do yourself a favour by stopping smoking. And do your fellow smokers a favour by helping them understand how it's done.

Quit smoking slowly
We're all aware of bad things that cigarettes are causing, and if you decided to stop smoking - this is application for you to become smoke free.
Quit smoking slowly application can be your truly companion in process of quit smoking - it can help you slowly reduce the amount of cigarettes per day, keep your cessation stress, nicotine cravings in normal and let you body adapt to less cigarettes daily, until you completely stop smoking. This way can let you accommodate with non-smoker life again, what you used to be, before you began smoking.. But the most important thing is your willingness to stop smoking and if you have it- install this application and use it.
Enjoy easier breathing by no smoking
How it works?
For example, if you smoke 20 cigarettes a day, that means that you smoke a cigarette approximately every 42 minutes (with hypothesis that you sleep 8 hours a day). After that it will calculate how much you need to extend that period over a time to stop smoking in desired time. After setting initial parameters, hit the green screen when you smoke the cigarette.
When screen is green, you can smoke. Enough of time has passed from the last cigarette. Click to record you smoked and wait for the screen to go green again.
When screen is red, you should not smoke. Try with Tips if it's hard. If you didn't make it - tap and hold the red screen for 3 seconds. Try harder next period, and don't break the maximum amount of cigarettes for the day.
Why should you try this method?
Smoking is a habit. Quitting smoking it's not very simple, but we're all aware of the fact that we should go no smoking way. This app provides method that is different from just saying I won't smoke anymore, because that's really hard. Reduction of nicotine, and stress from no smoking are here coming in small doses.
Hypothesis here is that with this smaller portions of nicotine turkey and need for cigarette it is easier to adapt on life without cigarette and then completely quit smoking.
Remember: willingness to quit smoking is most important. Take those small amounts of nicotine stress and habit change every day and his app will help you to adapt on non-smoking life. You can do it! :-)

You know, arguably.
Not a large sample, of course.
Here's what it looks like – an SFPD enforcement action, this latest one at Oak and Masonic. (Note modern-looking SFPD Kawasaki Concours 14P (which looks to me like a CHP BMW) juxtaposed with the ancient Harley Davidsons what make up most of the Motor Patrol.)
This action meant that every driver who commited some infraction turning left from inbound Oak onto northbound Masonic got pulled over at the Masonic Chevron.
One supposes that the new left turn arrow phase at this intersection was the instigation for the enforcement action. (Back in the day, traffic didn't back up during the Morning Drive due to the Double Left Turn that's no longer there, owing to concerns over ped safety, one supposes.)
All right, here's your money shot, here's your scene at Fell and Masonic with a brace of drivers, drivers who "know" they're special, so fucking special, you know, your Prius hybrid drivers, your Range Rover drivers, and your new funky BMW i3 (with absurdly tall, absurdly narrow Conestoga wagon wheels) electric car drivers:
That was the scene I initialy came upon and this is the same area as I left. Note the all-black Mercedes Benz, Audi and Lexus. It's not a coincidence that the drivers of all these cars got pulled over at the same time, just saying:
Of course, the SFPD will also pull you over if they notice you doing something wrong going the other way, but the funny thing was that the two cars I saw getting pulled over heading south on Masonic, against the current, heading towards the Financial, were normal ones, like VW Golfs. (I'll ask you, should you ever be proud of your car? The answer is that no you shouldn't be, because Pride Goeth Before The Painful Traffic Ticket What's Going to End Up Costing Your Four Figures. JMO.)
Moving on, to this – peds coming up to chat up the cops to cheer them on.
Now I'll tell you, I didn't see any driver run a red during the time I was at these intersection taking photos of the enforcement action, but I was paying more attention to the cops as opposed to the drivers. And I'll note that sometimes the traffic lights would cycle red green red green red green without anyone getting pulled over.
I'll leave you with this, my misfocused shot of a ped giving a black power salute to the SFPD to thank them for this latest enforcement action:
Mmmm… donuts:
And on the next block:
And so on…
Thank goodness these skid marks are black and not some other flavor…
This was yesterday morning, with the crew packing up, after weeks of work:
And this was yesterday evening – it looks like they're done?
So what's the deal here? Are they going to pull up the tape on the intersection what forces cars in the right lane to turn right and then lay down some permanent lines, or are they going to go back to the way it was before, back when you had the option of going straight or right?
Maybe that's what the orange on the signs means, that these changes were only temporary? Or maybe the orange means, "Hey look, here is the new rule?"
I can't tell.
But if all they were doing was fixing up that corner of the intersection, then what did they do? It looks exactly the same to me. And why did it take weeks?
On It Goes…
Narcan is popular these days, that's for sure.
I wonder if Park Station will get some at some point…
"SFPD Announces Opiate Overdose Prevention Program
The San Francisco Police Department, in partnership with the San Francisco Department of Public Health (SFDPH), will distribute naloxone (trade name: Narcan) to Metro Division police officers (Central, Southern, Mission, Northern and Tenderloin Police Stations) as part of a pilot program to combat drug overdose. Naloxone is an emergency antidote that reverses the effects of opioid-type drugs, including heroin and prescription painkillers. Drug overdose is the most common cause of accidental death nationwide. In San Francisco, prescription opioid painkiller deaths have outpaced heroin-related deaths and continue to be a major threat to public health. The San Francisco Police Department joins hundreds of police departments and community groups nationwide in this worthy effort to prevent drug overdose deaths.
Over the past few months, the San Francisco Police Department teamed with the Harm Reduction Coalition's Drug Overdose Prevention and Education (DOPE) project, funded by the San Francisco Department of Public Health, and the San Francisco Fire Department to train police officers in how to recognize life-threatening opioid overdose, and administer the intranasal naloxone as an antidote.
We are in the business of saving lives. Naloxone will help us accomplish our mission."
Here's a statement about the northern Twitterloin from CW Nevius in"Tenderloin nonprofits vs. bad apple corner stores:
"He hired a security guard and installed lights and cameras, but he and the people at the neighborhood's other service agencies know where the real problems originate — the handful of lawless corner stores.
So, the "real problems" of the Tenderloin originate from a handful of lawless corner stores?
Uh, nope!
The test will be when the handful of corner stores get shut down and then the New Day doesn't dawn, of course.
(One supposes that Nevius needs to "add drama" in order to justify his high-salary, low-effort gig.)
Now obvs, if SFGov is sufficiently motivated, it can "dramatically" change the character of a high-crime corner or a block pretty much at will. (Like at Jones and Market, the former open-air, stolen iPhone Apple store in front of the check-cashing place. Post an officer not just for one shift, but for all shifts and then people will get the message to move on.) But I'm skeptical of SFGov doing much more than that, of it "bringing a new day" to the TL. I heard the same type of thing when I lived in the area, back before Nevius white-flighted to The Creek in the East Bay, and periodically I keep hearing the same-old-same-old from some of the bad apple service agencies that Nevius is in communication with. (You know, like the one with the chief exec who sometimes threatens to sue and almost always belittles The Neviusese's employer, for instance.)
Naive newcomer Nevius is far more optimistic than I on this score.
In any event, if SFGov can shut down an individual store and CW Nevius wants to cheerlead from his empty nest condo in SoSoMA, that's fine. But it'll be a long wait for a "new day" in the TL.
Oh well.
Background: The Big Boy Market at 180 Golden Gate is no more as of 2014.
And here's a shot I took, from 2011 – it seemed to piss off the people hanging about. (Everything's filtered 'cept for the DRUG-FREE SCHOOL ZONE (or should it have been SCHOOL-FREE DRUG ZONE?) sign:
Click to expand
Hey Nevius, why don't you spend a Night in the Twitterloin ala this guy? You know, have a hat cam on, or have a drone hovering overhead to record your interactions. Or, just keep on doing the same old, waiting for Randy Shaw to email you with his latest Crusade, that kind of thing. I suppose you get paid the same either way…
'Til next time, Niño Grande.
Well, actually, I don't know what these people did to earn a citation from the SFPD and I don't what else they've done lately, you know, that might have escaped notice of the popo:
So maybe they're not* dirtbags IRL, IDK.
Perhaps I'll get called for jury duty on one of these citations, and then I'll let you know.
*The SFPD bait car program straight outta Hollywood was a bad idea, for example. I can't imagine convicting anybody for moving an unlocked car left idling and double-parked on Divisadero, for example.
Gentle Reporter, get a load of this, from Slate*:
Let's Make a Deal – A startup helps stores like Bloomingdale's and Whole Foods give suspected shoplifters a choice: Pay $320, or we'll call the cops. By Leon Neyfakh
CEC is straight outta Texas, as is Whole Foods, you dig? Well guess where the shopliftingest Whole Foods in all Christendom is located – that's right, at Haight and Stanyan. Oh, here it is. I'll tell you, this woman, you can barely see her** here, stood out amongst the shoppers even before she got frogmarched past the deli counter by four(!) dudes:
So what happened? WF checked its records, checked her for warrants and then set her up with CEC?
"Enquiring" Minds Want To Know.
Here's what you do, you contact WF and/or the other bidnesses cited by Leon, and then somebody at the SFPD, and maybe somebody at the DA's office, and then of course Jeff Adachi, you know, for the outrage, and then an actual CEC graduate, and THIS ONE WRITES ITSELF.
*Wow, "alleged" shoplifters, Slate? Like the paramilitaries at Whole Paycheck*** frogmarch away the wrong shoppers all the time? Well, if something like that happens to you, Gentle Reader, then you should tell WF, "I'll take my chances with the SFPD," right?
**Purple stockings over tattoos, huge clunky heels, clip clop clip clop…
***I don't spend a great deal of time at WF but I'll tell you, man, they have cheaper prices now, like they're trying to match TJ's, on organic milk, for example. I applaud.
Learn to love me
Assemble the ways
Now, today, tomorrow and always
My only weakness is a listed crime
My only weakness is… well, never mind, never mind
Oh, shoplifters of the world
Unite and take over
Shoplifters of the world
Hand it over
Hand it over
Hand it over
Learn to love me
And assemble the ways
Now, today, tomorrow, and always
My only weakness is a listed crime**
But last night the plans of a future war
Was all I saw on Channel Four
Shoplifters of the world
Unite and take over
"I saw this and it's clever and cute, but I'm appalled by the ignorantly misunderstood lyrics. "My only weakness is a list of crimes" doesn't even make sense. "My only weakness is a listed crime" puts the rest of the song in context, and provides a little history lesson about sexuality in England."
This MUNI operator used to be able to pick up at Hayes and Masonic southbound and then easily continue straight on Masonic towards Haight. But now #43 Masonic drivers need to get into the #2 lane as the #3 lane is now a mandatory right turn onto Fell. So click click goes the left turn signal as the bus driver begs the stalled traffic for a little help:
And if you're coming from inbound Hayes to southbound Masonic on a bike, you now have two lanes to jink across if you wish to continue on along Masonic:
This is why some, including those at the SFMTA/SFBC disfavor DOUBLE RIGHT TURNS. Note also the driver who's improperly cutting across from lane #3 to lane #2.
And of course, now more drivers are blocking the box / sitting on the crosswalk:
On it goes at Fell and Masonic.
Someday I'll figure out what the SFMTA is going for here.
Chop chop, always with the chopping, in this area:
If your bike hasn't yet gotten chopped and it has a serial number on it, then there's something the cops can do about it.
Otherwise, chop chop, always with the chopping, in this area.
Back up in the hood where the rules dont shift
And the gangstas talk trills, sip purp and burn piff
You can call 5-0 and 5-0 might come
But by the time that they arrive all that dirt had been done

I bought this rug because I loved the pattern and had been looking for something with teal/indigo hues. The actual rug is more royal purplish blues and periwinkle instead of sky blue. But I got over that because it was still beautiful and felt nice to the touch, and for the most part I was quite happy with it...until I vacuumed it. The pile on this rug is about a half inch, and the yarns are woven in as loops. Now the description says this is an easy care rug made with materials to prevent shedding like wool rugs sometimes do, and the tag on the rug itself actually says to vacuum regularly. My vacuum is a shark, and is really made for hardwoods but it does have a single setting roller bar for low pile rugs, so I'm pretty confident that it wasn't vacuum misuse that caused this. As I began to vacuum, loops began to come loose here and there, and the individual threads within the yarn started pulling out into a haze of fuzz all over the surface of the rug. It looked like I had wiped cotton candy all over it, and I probably pulled a cats worth of fuzz out of the roller bar. I called Overstock and the lady I spoke to was just as baffled as I was, in fact, she was reading some additional info in her system that said that rug was roller bar safe. Maybe I got a defective product, but I am sending it back and ordering something else because I don't want to take any more chances. Bummed because I really liked that rug.
