Low-Income Energy Assistance Program (LEAP)
LEAP Emergency Financial Assistance is a comprehensive, year-round emergency financial assistance program developed by the Ontario Energy Board to assist low-income energy customers better manage their bill payments and energy costs. The program's design is based on the "Winter Warmth" program (previously administered by the United Way) and is intended to supplement existing government initiatives. LEAP Emergency Financial Assistance, which is funded through the distribution rates of distributors, is a grant program intended to provide emergency relief to eligible low-income customers who may be experiencing difficulty paying current arrears. It is not intended to provide regular or ongoing bill payment assistance.
The delivery of LEAP Emergency Financial Assistance relies heavily on cooperation between utilities and social service agencies. It is expected that as agencies screen and assess applicants in need, that they may refer customers not only for Emergency Financial Assistance, but also for customer service measures and/or conservation programs. However, if no referrals are provided, we recommend that you contact the utility and request what your options may be. For more information, please go to:
The maximum grant level is $500 per fuel per household per year. At the discretion of the agency, you may be eligible for a grant of up to $600 if you live in an electrically-heated home. Some utilities, such as Hydro One, are giving clients additional funds, up to $550 – $575 if clients normally heat with another fuel source, such as oil, but have been using electric heating because they were not able to purchase oil.
The first step is to contact your electricity or natural gas provider or unit sub-metering provider. You will be referred to the social service agency serving the area in which you reside (this agency is called the "lead agency"). The lead agency, and not your utility provider, is responsible for assessing whether you are eligible for LEAP Emergency Financial Assistance. For more information, go to http://www.ontarioenergyboard.ca/OEB/Consumers/Consumer+Protection/Help+for+Low-Income+Energy+Consumers
Upon contacting your utility you will be provided the number for the utility's Lead agency who will complete an initial eligibility screening with you over the phone. If you meet the initial criteria, you will then be requested to contact another local social service agency in your area to complete a small application process. If you are not eligible for the LEAP program you may inquire about accessing the Emergency Energy Fund (see below).
Community Homelessness Prevention Initiative (CHPI)
Starting January 1, 2013, funding for five former homelessness-related programs, including the Emergency Energy Fund (EEF), will be combined into one program – the Community Homelessness Prevention Initiative (CHPI).

Municipal Service Managers have the flexibility to choose the programs and services they offer in their communities with their consolidated funding and to establish eligibility criteria. This may include programs and services that assist households at risk of homelessness retain their housing, such as emergency assistance for the payment of utilities arrears.

Northern Ontario Energy Credit
The Northern Ontario Energy Credit helps low- to moderate-income individuals 18 years of age and older and families living in Northern Ontario. You can get up to $210 for the 2012-13 benefit year to help with your home energy costs, which are often higher in the north due to more severe winters. If you are single, you can get up to $137. These amounts will be adjusted for inflation each subsequent year. These credits are reduced when a single person's income exceeds $36,806 and a family's income exceeds $47,322, and are completely eliminated when a single person's income exceeds $50,506 and a family's income exceeds $68,322.
Starting July 2012, the Northern Ontario Energy Credit will be paid monthly as part of the Ontario Trillium Benefit instead of quarterly. You must be a resident of a district in Northern Ontario at the beginning of a month to receive that month's payment.
Benefit payments for the period starting July 2012 through June 2013 will be based on the information in your 2011 personal income tax return.
Eligible individuals and families will receive the last two quarterly 2011-12 benefit year payments based on their 2010 personal income tax returns in March and June 2012.
To ease the impact of rising electricity costs, the Province introduced the Ontario Clean Energy Benefit (OCEB) which provides electricity consumers with a 10 percent rebate on the total cost of electricity charges related to electricity consumption on their bills, including HST. This rebate took effect with electricity consumed January 1, 2011 and will end on December 31, 2015. Beginning September 1, 2012, the 10 per cent rebate will be applied to the first 3,000 kilowatt hours of electricity consumed per month. With the 3,000 kilowatt hour per month cap in place the Ontario Clean Energy Benefit will continue to provide a full 10 per cent rebate to almost all residential consumers. For more information, go to the Ministry of Energy's website at http://www.energy.gov.on.ca/en/electricity-prices/clean-energy-benefit/

Guesthouses, hotels and resorts

Question about
HP Laptop Replacement Screens
Need to replace a screen on an Pavillion dv6. Anyone have a recommendations for a vendor - good price, quality panel, good service, etc.??
I usually just hope to find a cheap panel on ebay that says it will fit the model I need a replacement for, especially for old laptops. Another option is to get a broken laptop of the same model who's screen still works. (the second option is not so easy for newer laptops)
If you do search for parts on ebay - the repair shop I work at, we tend to use Screenaid if they have the part. We might have had 1 or 2 faulty screens out of the hundred or so we have ordered from them.
I'm not necessarily looking for the "cheapest" panel and I want a company that stands behind their product should something go wrong. If that means a few more dollars, so be it.
I will check eBay for Screenaid. Thanks for that tip!

You certainly can, but be sure to check with the hotel first. Some hotels charge a daily storage and handling fee so make sure you understand their policy before you mail anything.
This is our first Cussler Society convention and we were wondering if we needed to wear formal attire at the banquet dinner.

Our raffle items are an incentive to attract individuals to our conventions and are only available to paid convention attendees.

Two Men Went to War

- Release Date: Mar 26, 2004
- Starring: Derek Jacobi, Kenneth Cranham, Leo Bill
- Summary: A comedy drama based on the true story of two British Army dentists who in 1942, eager to see action, go AWOL and invade occupied France on their own. (Guerilla Films)
- Director: John Henderson
- Genre(s): Drama, Comedy, War
- More Details and Credits »

Score distribution:
Positive: 4 out of 13
Mixed: 9 out of 13
Negative: 0 out of 13
If whimsy isn't your mug of tea, stay away from Two Men Went to War. You have to be in the mood for a little sweetness to enjoy this resolutely old- fashioned comedy.
The first half of the movie is a particular delight, with the bug-eyed, chinless Cuthbertson playing beautifully against grouchy, stoic King, who's barking mad under that stiff upper lip.
Henderson's warm and toasty little gem of a film, slight though it may be, reminds you that the Greatest Generation, full of vim, vigor, and most important an indefatigable sense of purpose, grew up on both sides of the Big Pond.
The middle sections go a bit slack at times, and things wrap up a little too neat and quickly, but overall Two Men Went to War entertains and recalls the type of British period comedy that more regularly appeared here before everything seemingly began to strive for "Full Monty"-sized box-office returns.
Cleverly realizing a novel premise, it's a slight but charming look at the lighter side of WWII.
More often than not, Two Men Went to War resembles a feature-length episode of "Hogan's Heroes," with the brave but clumsy Brits continually managing to outfox the even more bungling Nazis.
Shot in the warm sepia tones of bittersweet memories, this whimsical, unpretentious shaggy war story is the sort of film that looks like a small gem when you accidentally stumble across it on TV or at the video store. But it feels a little unsatisfying when its small virtues are stretched to cover a big screen.

You lost me there, Curt. Because Kodak supplies HC-110 as the developer to hospitals and other institutions that are dedicated to it's use ( no digital substitute ! ), for which there is NO alternative developer, and who just mint money for Rochester ?
I worked in a hospital for 25 years in medical imaging, where do they use HC-110? I don't buy the no alternative developer either, I'm passed that one, along with there is only one paper and no other choice.
I'm not sure that eliminating all of the X-Omat processors for instance would not be a bad idea at all, they are dirty, unreliable, and environmentally unsound. And the film used in Radiology is obscene, not to mention the storage of it for the 5 years required. Ultrasound went filmless and it wasn't the end of the world. I hope that the medical industry goes totally digital in my life time.
At home in my photo world I can live with what is available and the point I make is I would like a little lead time on the discontinuance of materials in that I may make a smoother transition to new ones. That's the wish, reality is that the business world is not there for me to be prepared.
I am at the end of the photographic grieving process. Debating these things are the biggest troll of all for me.
Posts like "do you use a tripod" has more relevance.
I gave my reasons for selecting a new developer and didn't rag on any company and what do you know. Troll, Troll, Troll.
Will we ever see the end of this stufff?

Everyone with diabetes occasionally experiences blood sugar "lows," also known as hypoglycemic episodes. While eating a bit of candy or drinking juice may help, glucose tablets are one of the quickest, easiest ways to raise your blood sugar levels and boost your energy. You'll feel better almost immediately because it's easier for your body to process glucose, rather than having to turn fructose or sugar.
Keep glucose tablets in your purse, pocket, car and desk so they're easily accessible when you need them. And remember to test your blood sugar about 30 minutes after eating carbohydrates to make sure you are returning to normal blood sugar levels.

Report: 'Real Housewives' star Taylor Armstrong, Hubby Secretly Separate
Taylor Armstrong has reportedly left her icy husband, Russell.
A source tells the new issue of Us Weekly (on stands now) that "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star has secretly separated from her banker husband of seven years.
"They've had huge marital problems related to finances," the insider says of the pair, who were seen together with daughter Kennedy, 5, at a Lollipop Theater Network event in Burbank, Calif., on May 7.
The couple's marital problems are nothing new: Bravo viewers watched them bicker constantly during the show's first season, and Taylor even likened their marriage to a business arrangement.
Still, the recent split is taking a physical toll on Taylor. "She's emaciated -- down 10, 15 pounds," a source tells Us.
The "Real Housewives" drama doesn't end there. New cast member Brandi Glanville, 38 -- Eddie Cibrian's ex -- and Kyle Richards, 42, have been "going at it" since filming began on Season 2. "They got into a fight and Brandi lunged at Kyle," a source says. "They had to be separated by producers."

Political gridlock might be bad for the nation, but it's good
for the stock market, so goes a popular axiom. But is that always
Bloomberg reports:
"Hardening positions on the federal budget and borrowing
limit, and recent political setbacks suffered by both President
Barack Obama and Republican congressional leaders as they go into
the fight, are raising the odds of a government shutdown, debt
default or near-miss that could roil equities markets."
During 2011, the debt ceiling fight (political gridlock) between
U.S. politicians, shook the S&P 500 stock index (NYSEARCA:SPY)
to a 16.58% decline from Jul.22 to Aug.8. (See chart below)
The Aug.8 date was the first day of trading after the U.S.
government's credit downgrade by Standard & Poor's from AAA to
AA+. Although stocks (NYSEARCA:SCHB) gained 12% thereafter, the
S&P 500 ended the year basically flat.
Since the federal debt limit was raised to $16.69 trillion in
May, the U.S. Treasury has been using "extraordinary measures" to
avoid defaulting on the nation's debts. By mid-October, these
extraordinary measures will be completely exhausted unless Congress
steps in.
Thus far this year, the VIX, which measures stock market fear or
volatility (CBOE:^VIX), has experienced a sudden spike roughly
every two-months. On June 20, the VIX (NYSEARCA:VXX) hit a yearly
high of 20.49.
Gold Experts Keep Misleading the Public
President Obama's approval rating is currently 44%, according to
Gallup's latest poll. The Dow Jones Industrial Average
(NYSEARCA:DIA) has gained 12.3% over the past five decades
proceeding Obama's first term, when presidential approval ratings
hover between 35% to 50%, according to Ned Davis Research.
As presidential job approval ratings sink, so do stock market
returns. When approval ratings fall between 50% and 65%, the Dow
had an average annualized gain of just 5.4%. President Obama's low
point in approval ratings was 38% from Oct.15-17, 2011.
The average approval rating for U.S. presidents over the past 75
years is 54%.
Contrary to conventional wisdom, political gridlock is
not always good for the stock market - especially when it
involves the potential for government debt defaults and other
bizarre scenarios that our generation has never seen or

Rice is more than just a side dish -- it's one of the most important and widely consumed food staples in the world. For many cultures, it's not just a food, but a way of life. It's grown throughout the world, especially in Asia, with China as the leading producer.
You'll find that many classic dishes from around the globe are made with rice. Just think of Asian stir-fry recipes, Italian risotto, Spanish paella, Southern dirty rice, Japanese sushi and so much more.
When you're shopping for rice at the grocery store, you probably reach for the same box or bag every time. We're here to show you the world of possibilities rice offers.
The rice you probably use most often is white rice, which is a long-grain rice that is polished down to remove the bran and germ, leaving just the white endosperm (the rice kernel). But there's more to rice than just the standard white. Brown rice, which is gaining popularity, is considered whole grain, because it includes the bran and germ. But before we get into brown vs. white, you must know that rice comes in three types or sizes, long grain, medium grain, and short grain.
The Sizes Of Rice
Long grain is a classification for rice that is at least three times as long as it is wide. Think of long-grain white rice, like Carolina, or long-grain brown rice, like Uncle Ben's. Basmati and Jasmine, popular in Indian and Thai cuisine, are also long-grain varieties. Medium grain rice is less than three times as long as it is wide. Risotto rices, like Arborio, Carnaroli, and Vialone Nano are considered medium grain, but are sometimes lumped together with short grain. Short grain rice is less than twice as long as it is wide. Sushi rice is a good example of short-grain rice.
Cooking Rice
Cooking rice can be as simple as combining rice with double the amount of water and boiling it until tender. That works best for long-grain white rice, but other varieties can take longer to cook, or require less water. We recommend reading your package instructions for the correct amount of water to use per cup of rice. There are two other methods for cooking rice beyond the simple method mentioned above. Rice can also be cooked like pasta, in an abundant amount of water and then drained. Or, as many Asian cuisines dictate, certain rice, like sticky rice or sushi rice, should be steamed, which involves placing the rice in a fine-mesh steamer basket over boiling water.
Storing Rice
White rice can last many years, because the bran and germ are not intact. But brown rice and other whole-grain rices tend not to keep longer than 6 months. It's best to use whole-grain rices within 3 to 6 months. It's also a good idea to store the rice in a cool dry place, or better yet in your refrigerator or even freezer.
Browse the gallery below to learn more about some of the major varieties of rice available in the market.
What's your favorite rice variety? How do you prepare rice? Leave a comment below.
White rice is rice that has had its hull, bran and germ removed. It is available in short grain, medium grain and long grain. The most popular is long-grain white rice, which is grown throughout Asia and the United States. White rice can be labeled instant, parboiled, enriched or converted. Instant rice, as the name implies, cooks up quickly because it has been precooked and dehydrated. Parboiled rice has increased nutritional value because it's partially boiled during the milling process. Enriched rice is white rice that has had nutrients and vitamins added to replace those lost during milling. It shouldn't be rinsed before or after cooking, because you wash away the nutrients. Converted rice is actually brown rice that has been treated by parboiling to look and taste nearly like white rice. How to use: White rice is the most widely used rice in the world. It works well as a side dish and incorporates well into main dishes, stir-frys, etc. Most white rice cooks up in 20 minutes. Instant rice cooks up in 5 to 10 minutes. Flavor/texture: White rice typically has little to no flavor and a tender texture. When cooked properly long-grain white rice is fluffy and the kernels do not stick together. Recipes: Spanish Pork Chops with Rice Vegetable Fried Rice Kielbasa Cajun Dirty Rice
Basmati rice is grown in India, Bangladesh and Pakistan. It's a very long-grain rice with a fragrant aroma, and its name means "fragrant one" in Sanskrit. It comes in both brown and white. How to use: Basmati cooks up in about 20 minutes. It can also be presoaked so that it cooks up in half the time. It's great in Indian dishes, like curries, Asian stir-fry recipes, and as a side dish. Flavor/texture: Basmati has a distinctive flavor and very tender texture. The kernels do not stick together. Recipes: Winter Roots Pilaf in Parchment Basmati Rice and Curry Casserole Baked Spice Salmon with Basmati Rice
Red rice is an unpolished whole grain rice that's only had its hull removed so it retains all of its nutrients. There are two main types: long-grain red cargo rice (Thailand) and Bhutanese red rice, which is medium-grain. How to use: Red rice cooks up in about 15 to 20 minutes, faster than brown rice. It should be rinsed before cooking. Texture/flavor: Red rice is slightly chewy. If you prefer softer rice, it can be soaked for 30 minutes before cooking. It tastes similar to brown rice but with an earthier flavor and aroma.
Brown rice is rice that hasn't been hulled, leaving the outer layer of bran and the germ intact. It has a higher nutritional value than white rice, which is completely hulled rice. Any variety of rice, including short, medium and long grain, can have a brown counterpart -- all rice starts out as a whole grain. How to use: Brown rice can be eaten just like white rice, it just requires double the amount of cooking time, typically 40 minutes. Since it is nearly a whole grain, brown rice spoils quickly -- use it within 6 months and keep it in a cool place, a refrigerator or freezer. Flavor/texture: Brown rice has a nutty flavor and a chewy texture. Recipes: Brown Rice Pecan Pilaf Brown Rice Tofu Maki Brown Rice Veggie Burgers
Jasmine rice comes from Thailand. It's also known as Hom Mali. It can be found in both white and brown. How to use: Jasmine rice should be rinsed before using. Cook it with less water than white rice (1 cup rice to 1-1/2 cups water), in effectively steaming the kernels -- this creates the best results. It takes about 20 minutes to cook. It's great for stir-frys. Flavor/texture: Jasmine rice has a very tender texture and a distinctive floral aroma. Its flavor is slightly nutty. The rice kernels cling together when cooked. Recipes: Malaysian Chicken Curry with Steamed Jasmine Rice Mango Jasmine Rice Pudding Jasmine Rice with Tomatoes and Cornichons
Black rice is also known as forbidden rice because it was the rice enjoyed by Chinese emperors and their royal court. The color is due to a high anthocyanin content. It's an unmilled whole grain rice that's high in amino acids, iron and many vitamins. Black rice is available in both short grain (China) an long grain (Thailand). How to use: Black rice is best in sweet dishes, like rice pudding. It can take up to 60 minutes to cook. It turns purple when cooked. Soaking the rice beforehand cuts down on cooking time by half. Since it is a whole grain, black rice should be kept under refrigeration and used within 3 to 6 months. Texture/flavor: Black rice has a strong nutty flavor. The long-grain variety, which is commonly grown in Thailand, has an aroma similar to Jasmine rice. Recipes: Grilled Pineapple with Coconut Black Sticky Rice Black Rice Curried Meatloaf Brazilian Black Rice
Risotto-type rices include Arborio, Carnaroli and Vialone Nano. The famous Venetian dish of risotto uses these types of rices, because the stout short-grain rice creates a thick viscosity while still retaining a toothsome texture. How to use: Risotto rices are of course meant for risotto but also work well for making rice pudding. Flavor/texture: When cooked risotto rices create creaminess. The kernels have a tender exterior with a slightly chewy center when cooked properly, which is a slow process of adding liquid a little at a time. Recipes: Basic Risotto Coconut Arborio Rice Pudding Chorizo Paella
There are many varieties of Japanese rice used in sushi. Major varieties include Koshihikari, Sasanishiki, and Hatsunishiki among others. They are all short-grain. How to use: Sushi rice is prepared in a distinct way: the rice is steamed and then combined with a mixture of sugar, salt and rice vinegar. Sushi rice varieties can also be used to make Asian desserts and rice pudding. Flavor/texture: Sushi rice has a similar flavor to plain white rice with a very sticky texture. Recipes: Korean Sushi Rolls with Walnut-Edamame Crumble Crisp Sushi Rice Cakes
Wild rice isn't a rice at all but the seed of a grass. It is native to North America and is grown mainly in Canada and the U.S. states of Minnesota and California. True wild rice grows naturally in ponds and lakes and is harvested by canoe (see how wild rice is grown here). Most wild rice in the market is a crossbred hybrid grown in paddies. After the inedible hulls are removed by threshing, the long, thin and black seeds remain. Wild rice is high in protein, fiber, and amino acids. How to use: Wild rice can be enjoyed just the same as rice. It has a long cooking time, up to 50 minutes. When cooked, the kernels typically split open. Flavor/texture: Wild rice has a nutty flavor and a slightly chewy texture. Recipes: Mushroom and Wild Rice Frittata Wild Rice with Dried Apricots and Pistachios Barley and Wild Rice Pilaf
Calrose, a medium-grain rice, was bred in California and was released to the public in 1948. It's popular in Hawaii and Pacific islands. It's also grown in Australia. How to use: Calrose takes about 20 to 25 minutes to cook. It holds flavor well and works well as a sushi rice. Texture/flavor: It has a sticky texture and a flavor much like white rice.

UK – New research revealed at CIETT conference: recruiters' reputation could still improve
The majority of the British public has a professional image of recruiters and people's opinions of recruitment consultants improves when they turn to them for help with their job-hunt, revealed the Recruitment and Employment Confederation (REC) today at the CIETT World Employment Conference.
The REC also found that recruiters' perceived professionalism beats that of journalists, politicians and estate agents but there is still some way to go before recruiters are viewed as professional as lawyers or teachers who scored higher.
In a survey, which questioned over 1,024 working age adults , 51% of those questioned felt recruiters project a professional image, which then increased to 72% among people who have used the services of a recruitment agency.
It also found that over three quarters of jobseekers who have used a recruitment agency (77%) think recruiters play an important role helping people find jobs while 72% of those who had used recruitment agencies in the past said they would do so again.
The survey also highlights that jobseekers from all walks of life call on the advice of recruiters when they needed help looking for a new role, with no significant difference in use of recruiters by workers from different social grades.
Presenting the survey's findings at the REC's Annual Convention today, Director of Research, Roger Tweedy said that "Raising the bar for standards of service and professionalism in the recruitment industry is our mission at the REC."
"Recruitment is often undervalued as a profession but as this poll reveals, people are impressed with the quality of service and professionalism they received from recruiters when they turn to them for help with their job search. This is a great foundation to build on as we work to drive up standards and improve the reputation of recruitment in the UK."

Drove by yesterday and saw 8 completed charging stations, with no construction equipment. Was going to try to plug in, when I noticed the cables were tied to the chargers with yellow tape. Must be they didn't get final inspection sign-off from the township. Anyone have any ideas on how to expedite it?
Scissors? :)
Dang! I shoulda thought of that!! :)
@tes-s You crack me up.
tes-s, LOL
It is either as you said waiting on final inspection, or Tesla has to do their own testing. I believe the same thing happened with the Greenwich CT chargers. They were finished but had not been turned on by Tesla, for whatever reason.
Hi, what's the location of the SC? I don't see it listed yet on the SC web page.
It won't be listed until Tesla turns it on and even then they have to update the SC page. There have been times where people were already using a charger, before it was listed on the site.
Understood. Nevertheless, where is it?
yeh, where in edison is it?
In the Menlo Park Mall. It is now on the Superchager web page.
planning to go take a look tomorrow. probably will be over crowded. lol..
closest to the superchargers is the mcdonalds.. i wish it's a barnes & nobles like in hamilton..
I wi hit it tomorrow as well.
55 Parsonage Rd. Edison, NJ.
I just checked my car and it's already loaded on the SC list.
It's on the car's supercharger map too.
What Jordan said.
It showing up on the cars tells me that the car downloads some updates without the need to be shut down. Perhaps this is normal. I got my car at the end of this past March and have had 1 update message which told me how long it will take and to not drive the car etc. and if I wanted to do the update now or schedule it. This SC update obviously wasn't of the same nature.
Data updates are not the same as code updates.
I just got an email from Tesla telling me it's officially open. Nice!
Only got 58 kW from the 3 and 4 chargers. One other car was charging on the other side where the 4 1 and 2 chargers were. Empty car so no corroboration on the reduced power.
Good meeting you in Albany. Gonna post the photo when I get a chance.
Hope you called the SC tech support. Greenwich, CT north had this same problem..
Yes , Ken--quite the coincidence crossing paths in NJ and NY. Good to put a face to a name. We are also in the process of getting a child to college. Don't feel compelled to post our picture:). I wrote to Tesla Central about Edison. I also ran into a 60 owner after dinner who was only seeing 52 kW, so I suggested he try the other bank of chargers.
Thank you, tes-s for finding the scissors!!
Gonna fill up today :)
Unless you have pictures, it wasn't I. :)
Bighorn gracefully declined a photo op with me. He has respectfully requested that kenj not post a picture of their meeting. NKYTA had promised to post a picture of his and Bighorn's meeting in Madison (I think that was it) but we have yet to see it.
Only 2 things can explain it: Either Bighorn is painfully camera shy or
He's the Lone Ranger!!! Not just a coincidence that his Model S is hi ho silver.
and the legend grows . . .
The whole soul stealing meme didn't resonate?
@Bighorn About as much as anonymous did. :-)
Stopped by yesterday after it showed up on the map. Its on Parsonage St. Between the McDonalds and the Mall parking lot. EIght plugs and there was one other Tesla MS there, a red P85. Everything seemed to be working fine, finally! No big celebration like at Hamilton, but its good to see it open.
He opted for the no-plastic-surgery version of witness protection, probably.
Am charging here now. Only car, and in charger 1A. Showing 155A, 369v, 192m/hr. Seems slower then other chargers I've used.
That's 57 kW which is what I documented the other day. I wrote Tesla though I'm sure they know that by remote monitoring.
