Cedar City • A 25-year-old Cedar City man was sentenced Tuesday to 1 to 15 years in prison for the shaking death of his girlfriend's son.
Thomas Canum was convicted by a jury of the Sept. 28, 2010 death of his live-in girlfriend's 14-month-old son, Cayden Lasseter, at the apartment the couple shared in Cedar City. Witnesses who testified at the trial said Canum claimed the child was injured by a fall from a couch.
During Tuesday's sentencing, Cayden's grandfather, Daniel Gricius, told the court it will take time to forgive Canum. He said the family has been through a "serious hardship" since the boy's death and that Canum shattered his dream of having a grandson.

St. Mac's Villa is owned by two couples who have a longtime love affair with Roatan, and West Bay Beach. We are lucky enough to live in Reno and Lake Tahoe in the summer, and Roatan is Home as often as we can make it down here. St. Mac's is a great place for family gatherings! Nothing says relaxation like a good book, the sounds of waves in the background, a dip in the warm water of the Caribbean, and a beautiful sunset....
Sachiko St. Jeor purchased this house in 1995
We started coming to Roatan 25 years ago, in the Wild West days before there were real roads out to West Bay. An ongoing love affair started with West Bay Beach, and St. Mac's was always the best house on the best beach--a true traditional Caribbean style charmer. Time has passed, and we are thrilled to be co-owners with another couple who feel the same way we do! We've been all over the world searching for the perfect white sand beach with world class diving and snorkeling and crystal clear warm water...it is here at West Bay Beach. Despite West Bay's growth and new concrete condo construction, St Mac's is STILL the best house on the best beach, just with more dining options!
Enjoy 'steps to the ocean' and a '7 minute walk' along the coast to West Bay Beach? Be True Beachfront, right on the sand! This is the charming yellow house many people stop to take pictures of while walking down the beach. 24 hour Security Guards on site, plenty of parking, and a private Beachfront garden with swaying palms, lounge chairs and beautiful sunsets provided. Incredible snorkeling steps away! Excellent scuba diving close by with amazing reefs and sea creatures to enjoy.
West Bay Village is a great place to stay in Roatan. We had three couples which made St. Mac's perfect. It has a very large common space and pleasant bedrooms. The kitchen is very well equipped. The staff, Ruth, Brad, Rene and Sonia (to name a few) are all fantastic and so helpful! The owners Sach and Kasey make it so easy to book the experience. We highly recommend St. Mac's.
You will not be disappointed with a trip to St. Mac's on beautiful Roatan! Everything you need for a wonderful vacation is found here...a lovely home, efficient management, friendly and helpful staff, gorgeous beach, fabulous snorkeling on a beautiful reef, excellent restaurants as well as a long list of fun activities for the whole family! This was our first trip to Roatan and we couldn't be happier. We want to thank everyone at Island House rentals, the housekeeping staff, the security team and especially Marty and Chef Blackie who made our stay truly exceptional. We look forward to seeing you all again soon! The Neustels
This is our third stay A St. Macs Upper. I honestly think that this is the best rental property in West Bay. Your views are incredible with your private beach area. The open structure of the house combines the dining, kitchen and living area into one with great great room with two double sliding doors that provide access to a huge deck overlooking the beach and the beautiful Caribbean. Your privacy and security is assured with 24hr. security. We are definitely going back.
We had the pleasure of staying for two weeks in St. Mac's Upper unit. Right from the first contact, the owners were wonderful to deal with and always quick to respond to any of my emails. We are a family of five so the bedrooms and layouts were perfect for us. The main living area/kitchen/dining room is huge and the entire unit is very well appointed. The kitchen has everything you need and the blender makes fabulous margaritas! We spent many hours out on the large deck. It was a perfect location, including your very own private beach to enjoy with lots of shade. West Bay was really busy for the first week we were there because of Semana Santa and we felt blessed to enjoy our quiet portion of the beach. The maid and laundry service was exceptional and very much appreciated. I would not hesitate to recommend St. Mac's to all of my friends and family. We hope to enjoy it again very soon!
This property was a perfect fit for us and we commented throughout our stay about how perfect the location and the house were. We stayed in the St Mac's Upper House and it was our first trip to Roatan. We are a family of 4 traveling with my parents and the layout was awesome. The kids had their own room and both couples had spacious rooms with king sized beds. The light in the upstairs living room is remarkable and you can see the ocean and the beach activity at all times. The beach is just steps away or you can sit on the porch upstairs in a hammock relaxing and watching everything. The property managers were so lovely and helpful. The house was clean and well cared for. I had done a LOT of research before ultimately booking this house and we could not have asked for a better location. The hospitality was also above and beyond as the home owner worked with us for early check-in due to our early flight, which was so deeply appreciated since we had the little kids in tow and wanted to buy food on the way to the house. The kids loved walking down to the ocean and making a left and going to the end of the beach in front of the cliff and looking at the schools of fish. We enjoyed eating at the Grand Roatan a couple of times and at Beachers. Even though we were there during low season, there was no lack for things to do and everything was steps away from the house. If the beach got too busy from cruise ships, we just retreated to the porch and were just as happy. We will stay here again if we get the chance to go back!
Spending a week in Roatan at the idyllic St. Mac's was a glorious way for our family to enjoy time together, relax and soak in the beauty of the island. There were things to do for all members of our group from age three to 70. We enjoyed snorkeling, the zip line, walking on the beach, playing in the sand and the water, eating at some of the restaurants and shopping as well as laying in the sun, watching the sunsets and photographing the beautiful flowers, fish and scenery.
In the beachfront apartment we had fantastic views of the ocean, the sunsets and palm trees. We could take a few steps from our door and enjoy the beach with plenty of lawn chairs. The facility was amazing and extremely comfortable. Everything we needed was there to cook meals, make treats or just relax and visit together. There were fascinating things to see and do - the snorkeling was amazing and so close. There were places to shop, eat wonderful food, a great fire show, crab races, and a driver always ready to take us anywhere we wanted to go. The rooms were extremely clean and comfortable with a lot of space so we never felt crowded.
The owners were awesome to work with. This was one of our favorite vacation spots ever and we enjoyed every minute of our trip. The security guards were friendly and helpful and provided us with an extra feeling of safety. The house is able to provide room for several families so we could each have a private space as well as space for us to be together. The deck was a wonderful gathering spot during the day. The water was clear, warm and inviting
Sandcastle building, Zip lining, Canopy tours, , Snorkeling/diving with dolphins, Sunset watching, Memory Making!

Updating a Thrift Store Brass Lamp
Check out my pretty new lamp! I've been seeing a lot of really cool and fun lamp revamps lately in blogworld and had been wanting to give it a try myself. And I'm tired of the lamps in our house anyway.
I found a brass lamp at the thrift store for $5 that I liked the shape of. Sorry, I forgot to take a before picture but imagine a plain brass lamp similar to this one which I found for sale on Craigslist (really, if you've ever been to a thrift store, you've seen them) -
After I got it home, though, I got a little overwhelmed and confused - so many options. I love all of the antique mercury glass lamps that I've seen but didn't really want to go out and buy more products. I wanted to use what I had on hand. So, finally, I just broke out the spray paint and started spraying. I mean the lamp only cost $5, how bad could I really screw it up?
First, you will want to tape off the electrical parts of your lamp - the light bulb socket and the cord:
Then, I pulled out these 3 colors of spray paint:
Before I started spraying, I took a bar of soap (good old Ivory soap) and ran it along some of the edges and ridges - this will keep the paint from adhering in spots. (You can see the bits of soap in the last picture here). Then I started with the Lagoon blue, spraying lightly - I wanted some of the original gold/brass to show through.
After that was dry, I, again, lightly, sprayed on some of the Ivy Leaf and metallic gold to get a layered look. Finally, when everything was dry, I brushed on just a touch of Valspar's Antiquing Glaze and took a soft cloth and wiped off the soap residue.
Then, I added a new shade (thrift store $2) and a new finial (thrift store 99 cents). The finial might be my favorite part -
And all done:

I first read Middlemarch a year ago or maybe it was two. The back of the library book said it was about two unhappy marriages, so I got it in my head that Lydgate and Dorothea would wind up in love with one another in some swoony, tragic ending. I was a good 800 pages in before I realized the climax I was waiting for was never coming.
And maybe that is what made me love it. But no, it was so much more. And then last month I heard this interview with Rebecca Mead about her new memoir, and I took out Middlemarch that night and have been reading it since.
And this is all I want to say, really: that Middlemarch is perfect. It is painful and kind. And it is my favorite.
I love favorite books. I never want to read anything new. Some people aren't like this, or so I hear. But I am, and I don't want to be anything else.

It's been a crazy week and a half!
We closed on our house and passed into the 34 weeks mark! Here is us on the day of our closing once we had been given the keys to our new, beautiful home. I made sure to take a belly pic for your enjoyment. I'm getting pregnant big for sure and my muscles are screaming. My abs are so sore, but I know it'll be worth it once I see Rebekah's lovely face.
This week we were also blessed by the arrival of our travel system! It's our stroller and infant car seat in one. Plus it's a great shade of GREEN! I love Green! Do I look like a natural pushing the stroller? We should be done painting RB's room this week and I will finally unveil the pictures of our progress. It's turning out to be really awesome. It's very whimsical I think. Our crib also came in, but since it is still in the box there is no picture. I want to get girl-friend some drawers for all of her clothes, books, diaper stuff, etc. We'll see!
So Valentine's Day was yesterday and I'll just be honest that I did not have high expectations. Cal and I are not big celebrators and are typically not super romantic. Last year we spent Valentine's Day looking for apartments in Houston. When we were dating we forgot it was Valentine's Day and tried to go out to eat only to stand in line forever hahaha. So this year I've been feeling a little... unattractive and unlovable. Cal is the picture of love to me, constantly showing me he loves me but as anyone else who has ever been pregnant knows, I need a lot more reassurance with all these hormones. It's like my mind often times tells me that it's just the hormones, but it is hard to convince my heart/emotions. God has been so faithful to reassure me and to give me a husband who is incredibly patient and loving. We thought about doing the traditional romantic dinner out and a movie (This Means War), but I cannot sit still that long. I'll cry! Literally. Anyway, our plan was to watch a sappy movie (my choice - Pride and Prejudice, Keira Knightly version) and eat something fun. So I was washing dishes (our dishwasher broke) and there was a knock at the door. Flowers! It's been ages since I got flowers and this was one of those days that I needed it. What an amazing husband!
Then, when the sweetest man in the world got home from working hard all day he said, "I heard someone has been craving chocolate?" Then gave me these! I like to write him a note everyday in his lunch so he wrote me one for Valentine's. It was incredibly sweet! I love this man so so much.
We then made a special dinner together - steak and loaded baked potatoes. Cal grilled the steaks on our charcoal grill and was so excited to get to grill at the new house! The steaks came out wonderfully too!
For dessert we had some Sparkling Cider and chocolate cupcakes - yummmmm. We drank the entire bottle of Sparkling Cider and it was so tasty. I love love this stuff. Even pre-pregnancy (and pre-seminary) I didn't like wine or champagne even for special occasions but I could drink Sparkling Cider all day long. I'm sure that the seminary appreciates the ease at which I can abstain from alcohol.
This is the love of my life right here!
I hope everyone took a moment for Valentine's Day just to be thankful that there are people in your life that love you even if it's not a spouse or significant other.

Constantia wine estates at this year's Constantia Fresh
For the eight consecutive year Constantia Fresh will take place on the expansive lawns of Buitenverwachting Wine Estate.
Taking place on 25 February 2017 over 200 wines will be available for you to swirl, sip and savour, while you nibble on gourmet canapés prepared by some of Constantia's most talented chefs, among them our executive Chef Peter Tempelhoff who will be cooking: yellowtail braai, cauliflower cous cous, romesco.
There will be a plethora of wines to taste from all over the Cape Winelands, which includes an incredible showcase of Constantia Wines.
See the Constantia wine estates below as well as some interesting facts about the farms.
Situated on the east-facing slopes of the magnificent Constantiaberg this farm originally formed part of the Constantia Estate, which was founded by Simon van der Stel, the first Governor of the new Dutch colony at the tip of Africa.
Groot Constantia
Groot Constantia is the oldest wine estate in South Africa. In 1685, during an annual visit to the Cape, Hendrik Adriaan van Rheede tot Drakenstein granted the grounds of Groot Constantia to Simon van der Stel the VOC Governor of the Cape of Good Hope.
Klein Constantia
The 146 Hectare wine estate originally formed part of the Constantia farm. While Klein Constantia make a full range of wines, they're famous for dessert wine, Vin de Constance. In the 18th and 19th centuries, it was one of the world's great sweet wines.
Eagles' Nest Wines
The farm's origins can be traced back to 1836 when it was used as a refreshment station between the area now known as Wynberg in the east, and the harbour of Hout Bay in the west. In order to make this journey, travellers had to cross the mountain pass, now known as Constantia Neck.
Constantia Glen
Constantia Glen has a unique position cradled between the Constantiaberg and Table Mountain (World Heritage Site) ranges, with predominantly north-east facing slopes. Making for both exceptional wines as well as exceptional views.
Steenberg Vineyards
Steenberg dates back to 1682, and offers a world-class destination comprised of restaurants, a winery as well as a spa.
Beau Constantia
Beau Constantia is a boutique wine farm situated at the top of Constantia Nek overlooking False Bay. Vines are planted to an elevation of 350 metres above sea-level on some of the steepest agricultural slopes in the Cape.
Constantia Uitsig
This historic estate not only makes top-drawer wine, but also hosts a bike park, wine shop and lauded restaurant.

Do you meal plan? Not necessarily meal prep, but meal plan?
What is the difference you ask?
When you are meal prepping, it may involve cutting up vegetables or fruit for your meals for your week; cooking your protein ahead; preparing sauces; putting together meals to pull out and re-heat; or putting meals in containers for easy grab and go access.
Meal planning is less time consuming, but super helpful! It is also a good first step to move towards meal prep. 😉
I find that meal prepping has so many advantages!
Saves You Time
When you have a busy week, you already know what you're having. Instead of standing in front of the fridge or freezer, wondering what you will make for lunch or dinner, you already know!
Saves You Money
More often than not, if you are planning your meals for the week, you will only have to buy what you need to prepare the meals you planned. So instead of grazing the grocery store aisles, putting items in your cart that you may make that week, you'll know that the items you are buying will get used. It also helps prevent fresh produce from going unused and end up going bad since you didn't eat it like you thought you might have.
Keeps Your Healthy Eating on Track
If you can take a little time each week and plan your meals, you can choose healthier options. Once you've bought the groceries, you are all set. Knowing what you will eat each day, makes it easier to stay on track as you don't have to play the "what to make" game, and maybe opt for quicker, less healthy meals!
You Can Try New Recipes
Add one or two new recipes in each week! It's a great way to try new foods and gather new recipes to add to your collection!
A good plan is to do your meal planning on a Friday night. If you have a whiteboard and erasable marker, you can use that to write down what you'll be having for the next week. Grab your recipe books or go to your fave recipe sites, and add them to the days of the week. While you go, add any groceries items to your list that you'll need. Then on the weekend, you can get your groceries for the week!
It doesn't have to be a Friday night, but the day or night before you go grocery shopping is always a good idea!
I'd love to know, do you meal plan? What do you like about it? Let me know in the comments below!

Art Fact Friday:
ZuCot Gallery Artist Aaron F. Henderson has mastered painting with a material called gouache. This is a tricky material to use because it dries quickly! It was introduced in 1935 as a water based paint with high pigment. The high pigmentation provides colors that are smoother, flatter, more opaque, and more brilliant than other materials such as watercolors or oil.
Come into ZuCot on Saturday from 1-4 to see his Spiritual Series (one of the last chances to see it) produced with gouache paints. Learn more about materials and the art producing/buying process on April 25th by coming to the Art Tasting!

Daily Cow Tip
- Mrs. Anne Picket began operating Wisconsins first cheese factory in 1841 on the family farm near Lake Mills using milk from her neighbors' cows to produce butter and cheese. This continued until 1845, when the level of production and demand grew too large for her kitchen. By 1869, Wisconsin produced over 3 million pounds of cheese, and that number would more than quadruple within 10 years.The nations first dairy school was created at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1890, where it remains the countrys top Dairy Science Department.Several popular cheese varieties were invented in Wisconsin. Brick Cheese was invented in 1877 and named for its brick-like shape created when real bricks are used to press moisture from the cheese. And Colby Cheese was created in Colby, Wis. in 1885.Wisconsin has been a leader in dairying for more than a century and was officially named Americas Dairyland in 1930.National June Dairy Month began as National Milk Month in 1937 as a way to promote drinking milk. Wisconsin held its first June Dairy Month in 1939, expanding the celebration to include milk, cheese, butter and ice cream.Wisconsin dairies help to fuel our state economy at the rate of more than $50,000 per minute. These dollars support schools, roads and businesses in our local communities.Wisconsin dairy cows produce much more than just great milk each cow generates more than $34,000 each year in economic activity. This means the average 250-cow dairy farm contributes more than $8.5 million each year to our states economy.Dairy is the largest segment of Wisconsin Agriculture, 19% of all agricultural jobs in Wisconsin are related to the dairy industry across 300 different careers.Wisconsin is currently home to 1.28 million dairy cows thats as many cows as there are Wisconsin school children!Wisconsin has more dairy cows per square mile than any other state.The average yearly milk production for a Wisconsin cow is 22,668 pounds (or 2,636 gallons). Thats more than 42,000 8-ounce glasses of milk from just one cow enough for you to drink 115 glasses of milk every day for a year!It takes 12 pounds of milk to make one gallon of ice cream, 10 pounds of milk to make one pound of cheese, and 21.8 pounds of milk to make one pound of butter.Wisconsin cheesemakers produced a record-breaking 3.0 billion pounds of cheese in 2015; 127.5 million pounds more than 2014. If Wisconsin were a country, it would rank 4th in the world in terms of total cheese production, behind the U.S., France and Germany, and just ahead of Italy.Finding a favorite ice cream flavor in Wisconsin requires lots of sampling there are more than 300 different flavors produced within the state.Wisconsin dairies help fuel our state economy at the rate of more than $82,000 per minute. In the time it takes you to drive the more than 400 miles between Superior and Pleasant Prairie, the dairy industry has generated more than $33 million dollars for the economy.Wisconsin dairies help fuel our state economy at the rate of more than $80,000 per minute. In the time it takes you to drive the more than 400 miles between Superior and Pleasant Prairie, the dairy industry has generated more than $33 million dollars for the economy.National June Dairy Month began as National Milk Month in 1937 to promote drinking milk. That same year, the average price of a new car was $760, gas cost $0.10 per gallon and milk was $0.50 per gallon.Wisconsin has been a leader in dairying for more than a century and was officially named Americas Dairyland in 1930. Ten years later, in 1940, it became the official license plate slogan.Colby cheese was created by John Steinwand, in Colby, Wisconsin in 1885, the same year the automobile was invented.Wisconsin has more dairy cows per square mile than any other state and produces more than 2 billion pounds of milk each month! Thats roughly the weight of 500,000 sedans.

This invention relates to a sensor which may be used over an extended period of time in a fluid to indicate the pH and the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) of the fluid.
More particularly, this invention relates to a sensor which can remain in water for an extended period of time to continuously indicate the pH and the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) of the water.
More particularly, this invention relates to a sensor which can be immersed in swimming pools, or other bodies of water which contain chlorine, for an extended period of time to continuously indicate the pH and chlorine content of the water.
Bodies of treated water are required for many purposes in industry, recreation and education and for each user the problems encountered in maintaining the quality of the water require great efforts. Typically the efforts of industry to maintain cooling tower and process water and the efforts of governments and individuals to maintain many other bodies of water such as, for example, drinking water supplies, swimming pools and aquariums require constant attention to the water conditions and, in particular, to the pH of the water and to the amount of chlorine that is present. These measurements must be taken frequently and the results are often inaccurate.
Similar problems are encountered by the users and producers of many other fluids such as oils, organic resins and food products such as juices and other food products containing liquids. Producers of fruit juices, for example, are concerned about the pH of their product and about the amount of ascorbic acid that is present. Numerous materials can create an ORP potential in a fluid and examples of these materials are chlorine, bromine and permanganates which are oxidizing agents and ascorbic acid, formaldehyde and hydrazine which are reducing agents. Measurement and control of these and other similar materials are of concern in many processes.
The problems often encountered in the control of the pH and ORP potentials of a fluid may be shown by an example. A common method for measuring the pH of a body of water such as that found in a swimming pool requires daily sampling using wet chemistry in which a sample of the water being tested is mixed with an indicator fluid and the color of the resultant mixture is compared to the colors shown on a chart to determine the pH of the water. This process is often inconvenient, especially for a homeowner with a swimming pool, and it often provides incorrect readings of the pH of the water. The measurement of the sample of water and of the indicator fluid is often inexact and, as a result, the color of the mixture varies. Furthermore, the visual comparison of the color of the mixture with the colors shown on the chart is also inexact. Thus, the measured pH may vary a great deal from the actual pH of the water and any treatment of the water based upon that measurement may not be correct.
This invention is directed to a sensor which will remain for an extended period of time in a fluid, such as a body of water to continuously measure and indicate the pH and the oxidation-reduction (ORP) potential of the fluid. The sensor may also be called an indicator, or other similar names, and these names are considered to be equivalent.
The invention is a sensor which may be immersed in a fluid to measure the pH and the ORP potential of the fluid. The sensor, which will be within a fluid-tight enclosure, has three solid state electrodes which extend into the fluid. The first electrode is a pH sensing electrode, the second is a reference electrode for the first and third electrodes and the third is an ORP potential sensing electrode. The enclosure further contains a display means visible from outside the enclosure for indicating the pH measurement and the ORP potential.
These and other features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description, wherein reference is made to the figures in the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a side view of a sealed enclosure that houses the sensor showing the position of the electrodes and the display means.
FIG. 2 is a view of the face of the enclosure showing the display means.
FIG. 3 is a view of the back of the enclosure showing electrodes which extend from the enclosure into the fluid.
FIG. 4 is a view of a portion of the enclosure surface showing an alternate position for the electrodes.
FIG. 5 is a circuit diagram illustrating an electrical circuit for the sensor.
FIGS. 1 through 4 show the invention which is a sensor 10 which will remain immersed for an extended period of time in a fluid containing a material whose presence creates an oxidation-reduction (ORP) potential in the fluid to continuously indicate the pH and the OR potential of the fluid. The fluid may be water for any use such as, for example, industrial cooling and process water, drinking water, and water for swimming pools, aquariums and spas. The fluid may also be a food product such as, for example, juices, cheeses and other food products containing liquids, or cooking and lubricating oils, organic resins or other liquids in manufacturing processes and food preparation. However, it is contemplated that the sensor 10 will be most useful in swimming pools, spas, aquariums, cooling towers and other similar bodies of water in which the measurement of the pH and the chlorine content must be routinely and repetitively performed.
The description of the use of the sensor in swimming pools hereinafter is not meant to limit the applicability of the sensor for use in other applications such as spas, cooling towers and aquariums, nor is it meant to limit the applicability of the sensor for use in fluids other than water.
The sensor 10 has a fluid- or water-tight, sealed enclosure 11 that is preferably immersed in, but may be allowed to float on, the fluid to provide a continuous indication of the pH and the oxidation-reduction (ORP) potential of the fluid. The sensor 10 has three solid state electrodes which extend into the fluid. The first electrode 15 is a solid state junction-type metal/metal oxide pH sensing electrode which may be, for example, an iridium-iridium oxide electrode such as the electrode described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,818,365, the specification of which is incorporated by reference. The second electrode 16 is a solid state junction-type metal/metal salt reference electrode which may be, for example, a silver-silver chloride electrode such as the electrode described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,908,117, the specification of which is incorporated by reference. The third electrode 17 is an electrode for measuring the oxidation-reduction (ORP) potential of the fluid. It is preferred that the third electrode 17 be a platinum electrode; however, the electrode may alternatively be made of other similar materials such as gold and palladium. If electrode 17 is platinum, it may be a platinum wire but it preferably may be produced, for example, by sputtering platinum on a nonconductive substrate, such as ceramic, or on a thin polyester film, such as Mylar� produced by E. I. duPont de Nemoirs and Company. The second electrode 16 serves as the reference electrode for both the pH measurement and the ORP potential measurement. It is contemplated that the first and second electrodes, 15 and 16, can be coated with a perfluorocarbon coating such as the Nafion� polymer made by the E. I. duPont de Nemoirs and Company.
If the three solid state electrodes are produced in accordance with the patents described above, then the electrodes will extend through one surface, or wall, 13 of the enclosure 11, as shown in FIG. 1, so that the electrodes are in contact with the fluid. The electrodes pass through seals (not shown), such as o-ring seals or other commonly known seals, in the surface 13 which prevent the fluid from entering the water-tight, sealed enclosure 11.
It is also contemplated that the electrodes may be produced in a manner different from that described above. The electrodes may, for example, be produced as coatings on the surface of a conductive material embedded in a nonconductive substrate as described in pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 07/450,783, filed Dec. 14, 1989, the specification of which is incorporated by reference. If the electrodes are produced in this manner, the nonconductive substrate, instead of the electrodes as described above, would extend through surface 13 of enclosure 11 to provide contact between the electrodes and the fluid. Alternatively, the nonconductive substrate may be attached to the exterior of the enclosure 11 by adhesives, or any other commonly known method, and wires from the electrodes to the sensor electronics would extend through a seal in the surface 13 of enclosure 11.
The electrodes may also be produced by coating the appropriate material on thin substrates such as films. For electrodes produced on thin films, the enclosure 11 may be modified as shown in FIG. 4 to provide one or more apertures or windows 18 in the sides of the enclosure so that the electrodes may be mounted within the enclosure 11 while maintaining contact with the fluid. The thin substrate supporting the electrodes is mounted within the enclosure 11 with the electrodes centered within the opening of the aperture 18 and facing outward from the enclosure. Each electrode may be positioned within a separate aperture 18 or the three electrodes may be centered within a single aperture 18. The surface between the aperture or the inner wall of the enclosure 11 surrounding the aperture 18 and the surface of the substrate supporting the electrodes is sealed using any commonly known method such as a gasket or adhesive.
The sensor 10 also includes display means 20, visible from the exterior of the enclosure 11, for indicating that the pH of the fluid is within the desired range and that there is a sufficient ORP potential present in the fluid. The display means 20 is mounted on an interior surface 14 of enclosure 11 and is visible from the exterior of the enclosure 11 through the transparent panel or window 12. The display means 20 may be any appropriate indicator such as lights, meters or liquid crystal displays that will provide a visual display of the measured values. While meters are easily read, it is preferred that the display means 20 be indicator lights such as colored light emitting diodes (LED) which are easily seen but require very little electrical power to operate. As an example, display means 20 includes a first light, a green light, 21 which flashes if the measured pH level is too low, a second light, a red light, 22 which flashes if the measured pH level is too high, and a third light, a yellow light, 23 that flashes if the measured ORP potential is too low. The red light 22 is also used to indicate that the sensor is operating properly. If the sensor malfunctions, the red light 22 glows steadily. It is also desired to provide an indication of how much the measured values for the pH and ORP potential of the fluid deviate from the desired levels. To provide this indication, the flashing of the lights is varied with the flashing becoming more rapid as the measured value deviates farther from the desired levels.
Power for the sensor is provided by batteries within the enclosure 11. The power required, and the size of the battery, depends upon the design of the electrical circuit, the desired operational life of the sensor before the battery must be replaced, and the space available within the enclosure for the battery. For this sensor, six volts are provided by four expendable AA size dry cell batteries. Optionally, a light may be provided or one of the lights of the display means may be used to indicate that battery power for the sensor is getting low, that is, that the batteries are becoming discharged and that they should be replaced to maintain the proper operation of the sensor.
FIG. 5 is an electrical circuit diagram for the sensor of this invention. The integrated circuit devices used in the circuit and the other circuit elements are identified in Table 1. In Table 1 the values of the resistors are shown in ohms, with "M" indicating megohms and "K" indicating kilo-ohms, and the value of the capacitors is shown in microfarads. While this is the circuit used with this invention, it is recognized that other circuits may be designed and that the other circuits may perform the same function equally well.

Normally, it is presumed that maintaining a free-chlorine residual of two milligrams per liter or two parts per million, provides good water quality. Within the past few years, the National Environmental Health Association and the National Sanitation Foundation have indicated that the measurement of the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) is more important because it will distinguish between free and combined chlorine. ORP is defined as the oxidation-reduction potential of a sanitizer such as chlorine. These oxidizers "burn-off" impurities in the water, including body wastes, algae and bacteria. An ORP sensor measures the potential generated by the active form of the sanitizer, and not the inactive forms such as combined chlorine. ORP testing is an ongoing electronic process that monitors sanitation levels. It has been determined that the free chlorine levels are more than adequate if the ORP measurement at platinum is at an acceptable level of approximately 650 millivolts or greater relative to a silver-silver chloride reference electrode, depending upon the pH of the fluid. The third electrode 17, discussed above regarding the measurement of the amount of chlorine in the water, is actually measuring the oxidation-reduction potential of the free-chlorine in the water. The yellow light 23 flashes whenever the measured potential is less than approximately 650 millivolts, relative to the silver-silver chloride reference electrode, to indicate that additional chlorine should be added to the water.
For a swimming pool the sensor 10 is in a sealed, water-tight enclosure 11 from which three electrodes extend. The electrodes are a solid state iridium-iridium oxide electrode 15 for the measurement of pH, a platinum electrode 17 for the measurement of the amount of chlorine present and a solid state silver-silver chloride reference electrode 16 that functions as a reference electrode for both of the measurement electrodes. The enclosure 11 includes a transparent panel or window 12 through which the indicator lights, colored light emitting diodes, that form display means 20 may be seen. Display means 20 includes a first light, a green light, 21 which flashes if the measured pH level is lower than the desired minimum of 7.0 pH, a second light, a red light, 22 which flashes if the measured pH level is higher than the desired maximum of 8.0 pH, and a third light, a yellow light, 23 that flashes if the measured chlorine level is lower than the desired minimum of 1 to 2 parts per million of chlorine in the water. Thus the appropriate light will flash a warning when the measured pH of the water is outside the desired range of 7.0-8.0 pH and when the chlorine content of the water is less than the safe minimum. If the sensor 10 is not functioning properly, the red light 22 will operate continuously, that is it will glow steadily instead of flashing, to provide a warning of the malfunction of the sensor 10.
The sensor has been described as being self-contained within a sealed enclosure. However, it is also possible to separate the electrodes from the electrical circuit and the display means to provide a display of the pH and ORP measurement at a location remote from the fluid. For this configuration, the electrodes are mounted in a sealed enclosure, such as the enclosure described above for the sensor, which can be immersed so that the electrodes are in contact with the fluid. The electrodes and the enclosure may be produced as described above. The electrical circuit and the display means, which are also produced as described above, are contained within a second enclosure that may be mounted at any convenient location and an electrical cable, with the necessary number of wires, is used to connect the electrodes to the electrical circuit. Since this configuration moves the electrical circuit and the display means to a location remote from the fluid, it is possible to replace the batteries that provide power for the sensor with another source of power. With a small change to the electrical circuit, it is possible to use a direct current source or an alternating current source to provide power for the sensor.
It will be apparent from the foregoing that many other variations and modifications may be made in the apparatus and methods herein before described, by those having experience in this technology, without departing from the concept of the present invention. Accordingly, it should be clearly understood that the apparatus and methods depicted in the accompanying drawings and referred to in the foregoing description are illustrative only and not intended to have limitations on the scope of the invention.

Australasia | Australia | New South Wales | Sydney – Doing nothing in Sydney
Decided to send out another bulletin even though I have spent the last few months basically doing absolutely nothing. But it has come to my attention that a few of you are actually interested in my travels, so I fell it is unfair of me to deprive you any further.
Yes, I'm still in Sydney. Its kind of turning into a big fat nightmare, solely of my own making. I keep putting off leaving so I can earn more money, but as soon as I earn anything I spend it all. So you'll be happy to see that nothing's changed in that department.
Had to leave my fabulous job at Sydney Ferries coz I was over the 3 month limit. Damn it!! Decided that was the best job I've ever had, and you know I've had a lot. I've moved from Newtown, for those of you familiar with Sydney, and have managed to leave the evil bitch flatmate behind. So am now in Potts Point with a flat overlooking the harbour complete with a roof terrace which is great except for when you have to hit the ground at night coz of all the bats flying overhead. Nasty creatures!!!!
Just managed to break my tooth 2 hours ago. Don't ask. So am now panicking in case my insurance doesn't cover dental. I knew this would happen to me.
Finally going to be leaving Australia at the beginning of September and will be arriving back in the UK in the middle of January.
Off to find a dentist now

One possible error may be how big the selection is that is being converted. Excel spreadsheets have a 65,000 thousand row limit. As such more than 100-200 pages should not be converted into a single workbook at a time. This will ensure that the conversion limit is not reached.
